ben's actor got removed from tiktok or twitter once (cant remember exactly) because he started a "ben hate club" and the system thought he was bullying someone LMAOOO
his Twitter bio still says "B*n H*pe Hate Club" 😂
lmaooo
Damn
Wow 😭😭
that is actually hilarious and his name is Sebastian Croft, from what I hear he’s basically the polar opposite of ben irl, such a sweet guy
the best part of this show is that the actor that plays Ben also hates Ben. loved that you reacted to this show
Haha, can't blame him, I would have vomired if i playing ben
Definitely Jacob Elordi hating Nate Jacobs
He had “Ben Hope Hate Club” in his bios for a while. Seems like a great dude who does a great job acting as shitty people 😅
@@yanicaguzman2817 I'm not sure if it's actually confirmed, there's only pictures of them together. For now we can just assume they're just friends but who knows 🤷🏻♂️
@@yanicaguzman2817 where did you get that from?
"is it gay to help a friend" in a british secondary school, its gay to even make eye contact with someone the same gender 😭
YUP
Can vouch that it’s the same in a South African one 😭😭
but at the same time ive seen boys making out and everyone insists theyre straight
"I want the gays to prosper. I am an ally." possibly the best Ashley quote to date
By far, yes
they literally gave Ash a cameo in the show omg
The Imogen mirroring payoff was GOLD!
the second she said that I was like girl you literally just quoted the show 5 minutes into the video
@@adiksaffLMAOOO I WAS LIKE ‘I’m not like homophobic , iM an aLLy!
Seeing Ash go through all five stages of grief when she heard the words “I’m an ally 💅” 😂💀
PEAK COMEDY
@@ellw7830 HONESTLY
The way I screamed 💀
27:45 for anyone who needs it😂
@@MCBlackCZ thank you! :D
The “am i gay?” Quiz is definitely a universal experience
Frrrr
For sure
LITERALLY 😭
Yup
Frrr
I think that we are so desensitized to seeing teenagers (that are played by actual adults) being an extreme adult situations, that we don’t notice how heartstopper is a breath of fresh air. I mean they are supposed to be a year younger than the kids in euphoria and I can more relate to taking an “am I gay quiz” than being held at gunpoint by my psycho ex-boyfriend who needs the sex tape(revenge porn) of my friend who had sex with his dad, who didn’t know she was under age at the time.
Okay but at the same time these are completely different shows lol. Euphoria is marketed as being exactly what it is, it’s not like they pretend it’s a show for children. It’s a very extreme show, I won’t act like it’s not, but although it’s not relatable to you, the general idea of the show and the issues of drug use, abuse, mental health are very relatable to some people. It’s literally just up to personal preference for what you want to watch.
euphorias not supposed to be relatable for the specific plot but more so the characters/character arcs/general portrayals, etc rue’s addiction, cassie’s longing for love or the general portrayal of domestic abuse. these shows are incredibly hard to compare, euphoria uses unrealistic wardrobe, makeup and settings with realistic acting, whereas heartstopper uses naturalism and everyday settings. people were subject to different things in high school so what’s not relatable to you may be relatable to someone else. :)
no one said euphoria was a bad show, why did you guys jump alex gray for no reason 😂
"I find teens in heartstopper more relatable than teens in euphoria"
"yeah well it's just a preference okay!"
yeah, that's-- that's what they said, like......
No one said it was a bad show?? They were just pointing out how Heartstopper is much more relatable for most lol
@@neonight9 I didn’t say they said that I’m just pointing out the ways euphoria is also relatable?
"F*ck math. We're in biology b**ch. We're in chemistry" deserves to be it's own meme
Ahahahathis
Yes! 🤣😂🤣😂
Ashley we avoided telling you this was British because we know you’d do the accent. And guess what…you did the accent
LMAOJLKDSFJKSKLF
we had it coming😭😭
We lost 😭
We aint even talk like that 💀
Yes 😭😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂
ash: i’m an ally
everyone: well thanks for your service!!
Ngl I thought she was bi bc I somehow follow loads of bi people without even knowing
"we fank you for yuor service"
@@zakwilsonwastaken i could swear she was bi lol
The self awareness she got from that scene with Imogen
😂
"What if she liked girls" honey they were playing girl in red when the were introduced
LMFAOSOHHDH
The “I’m not homophobic… I’m an ally” should be studied in schools ✨
Ash: “i’m an ally.”
Everbody: “we thank you for your service!”
iykyk! ❤️
BAHAHA YES
Literally came to the comments to bring that up 😂
The minute Ashley says, "Fuck this show," you know she high-key loves it and is just too emotionally invested.
I think that applies to everyone XD
I got WandaVision flashbacks-
when she says fuck math to we are in biology and chemistry🤣🤣😂😂
YES
it’s the stare after she says it, letting the message sink that there will be another video
Ashley as soon as she guesses one tiny predictable line: I WROTE THIS SHOW
hey folklore
I love the contrast the show sets up between Ben and Nick.... they're both going through the process of coming to terms with their sexuality but Nick is respectful, kind and considerate of Charlie; whereas Ben gets scared and treats Charlie cruelly to deal with it.
Not only did they actually use the word "Bisexual", and not just tiptoe around it, but they also used the word "Lesbian." I adore this show and its LGBTQA Plus diversity and inclusion! 🏳️🌈
they literally used all lgbt and i love it
you should read the comic
@@bzuku9554 omg yes i completely back this comment. i have every book including the nick & charlie novella. it’s a must!
It's just LGB, just because I am sexually attracted to the same gender does not mean that I support transexuals, etc. The two are extremely different things.
@@KillingMachine56656 I would say that most queer people also support Trans and Inter people and Other gender minority groups. They are part of our community. Also never forget who was at the front lines of the gay rights movement : non - cis people of colour! How can you literally stab people in the back who have fought for your rights?! You know how it feels to be discriminated against based on something you can't control, so don't do it to others!
The “am I gay quiz” is a universal experience. So is purposefully choosing the “straight” answers to reassure yourself of your truly authentic “heterosexuality”.
Stop coming for me 😭😭😭
@@estdayn397 Sis I been there too! 😭🤧
I never thought I could be gay cos I have no interest in guys.
Then I slowly realised I'm some sort of ace.
Then I figured out I'm not even a guy.
And now I'm wondering if I'm some variety of ace lesbian.
Opposite for me, actually wanted the reassurance of an affirmative “yes love you bleed the rainbow” as an answer but all the questions were so sexual and I was like 11
@@jjaster soo are you apart of our community or
"perhaps nick is the best boy to ever exist" yes, he is. When people say "Not All Men" they're talking about Nick Nelson.
Ash pointing out the Dinosaur in Charlie’s room and while they are having an intimate conversation is literally me with any social interaction
sameee LMAO
It’s pretty awesome that an Oscar winning actress like Olivia Colman thought so highly of this show that she was willing to take such a small role to be able to be involved. She is a phenomenal actress.
I thought that too!!
She knew the director, so that helped. She's always been a huge LGBTQ ally, too. And her role will grow in season 2. 🙂❤️
@@olly-kai Hopefully she is still available for series 2 and isn't too busy with other things to do it.
ugh can't wait for the new season of The Crown
@@pipkin3 she is confirmed to come back! her character is involved in a lot of the events that should be taking place in season 2 and 3 if it's going to involve book 3, and it would be a shame to lose so many of the scenes with nick's mum.
This show melted my stone cold heart
Aw, Cindy is here!
CINDY WHAT A CROSSOVER
OMG CINDYYYYY
Wait all me fav CZcams are connected...
Cindy!
I'm a straight, 26 y-o woman. You don't know how OBSESSED I am over these two. A friend forced me to watch the show since I wouldn't by myself, saying things like "I'm no longer a teen, I'm not gay, I can't relate..." NONSENSE! Their chemistry is insane, and who wouldn't relate with such a sweet, innocent love? We're all babies under our "tough grown-up" shields
12:36 charlie intentionally put "my supportive straight friend" in the text because he was trying to subtly figure out if nick was straight - he assumed he'd correct him if he wasn't
17:13 is so funny to me because there's literally a meme of Imogen saying, "I'm not like homophobic...I'm an ally!" and ash said that before it got to that part, when I tell you I was CACKLING!!!
Same💀I was searching for a comment talking about it because if fucking LOST it at that part
I screamed NO! at my screen when she said that
I thought she was saying it ironically 😭
I Had To Pause The Phone 📲😳And Said
“ I’m About To Beat This Bitch Up “ 😂🤣🙄🤦🏾♀️💯
Me tooooooo i just got to that part
OMG I WAS NOT EXPECTING A HEARTSTOPPER REACTION!!!
Me either ong 💗🥹
Ahhh im so excited for this!!!!
Waitttt so are my fave reaction channels just connected or what 😮
I WANTED THIS SO BADDE
But she said she might react to it in the first video on arcane
Ashely was talking about how impressed she is with actors who can make out on camera. Thought it's a good moment to recognize the amazing intimacy coordinator: David Thackeray!! (a job position I only learned about through this show)
Yeah, Netflix has been really good at getting intimacy coordinators for their shows. It's a new job that's popped up within the last 5-10 years in tv and film. The Witcher, Young Royals, and Sex Education also have ICs on staff.
you can tell ashley is straight at how she did not freak out at girl in red, lol Lots of love though, she is a true ally
"I hope they end up together by the end of the show" the author has confirmed that they get married and live happily eve after so don't even worry
If I have someone like nick in my life I ain't letting that boy go until my last breath 🥺🥺
As a bi woman pushing 30, Nick's coming out story made me cry. I wish I'd had this representation when I was a teenager.
26, same ❤️ all these new shows with lgbtq characters and developed stories makes me emotional thinking of all the representation these new generations have. Not only shows like this but also in kids shows!! While my teen self could only find tragic love stories on the Internet 💔
same here!!!
ASH the genuine fear in ur eyes when imogen said her ally line 💀💀💀💀 dw girlie we don’t see u as that!! u are a GENUINE ally and we love u for that xoxoxoxo
Watching this show sent me in such a deep depression that I could not explain only to find out that it was a universal experience on TikTok💀
Same 😭 especially with this new season!!!!
As a girl that had a lesbian relationship at sixteen and didn’t have a supportive mom watching Nick’s relationship with her mother was almost healing in a way🥺🥺
You will relate to Darcy in some ways then...her family isn't supportive. But she still lives her life the way she wants to.
Oh you aren't ready for darcy and her mom in season 2
Heartstopper was a masterpiece and the representation I wish I had growing up. I’ve watched it at least 5 times lol.❤️
Precisely, it stands out for being so lighthearted and idealistic, compared to darker teen dramas out there.
SAME
8 times for me haha
I had it on repeat for days 🤣
@Ragda Alhamwi ELITE?
I think of Ash saying
"Im an ally" less of someone who thinks the bare minimum is godly and more of
"I'm a mom who just wants my kids to be happy, so every chance I get ill remind them I support them"
I mean I understand why Nick was hesitant to help Charlie when he got tackled. When you are hiding something, you get paranoid and believe even the smallest thing can get you discovered
The show is extremely well written. It was written by Alice a non binary writer who started it as an online graphic novel, it got published and then they secured a three season deal with Netflix. The representation is phenomenal with real queer actors.
Alice is also aro ace!
Not all are queer
@@alexmarcal9276 I mean the graphic novel is literally called heartstopper lol. she also wrote a book about asexuality called loveless and it's really good! highly recommend it.
@@charlotte.7124 Slay
Kit Connor is str8 PS. guess I was wrong
the fact that they canonically stay together forever is so
personal experience: i did exactly what nick did, quizzes, researches, reading stories of other people. It helped a lot, especially reading other people's experiences...and that scene hit close to home.
i mean, yeah it is uncalled for saying she's an ally, but im glad she really is one.
just look at how happy she is when she realized that nick and charlie are tgt. a true ally.
and honestly, i wouldnt know how to break the awkward tension if i was in her place...
That second hand embarrassement I felt when he sent the "thank you for being the supportive straight friend haha "
Okay, but honestly, I've totally done that in a desperate attempt to see if a guy was straight or not lmao you do dumb things when you have a crush xD
i am proud to say that i was sobbing when tara and darcy public kissed and the light behind them- nick seeing it and being so overjoyed by them being happy just.. serotonin.
The fact that it was Kit’s genuine reaction too… it warms my heart everytime
which is why its my FAVORITE scene in the show its just.. just perfection
I feel like I write this under every heartstopper reaction, but people are doing Tao so dirty😭like you're allowed to be hurt that your friends put their lovers over you! People just always deem romance as more important than friendship, so everyone's saying Tao is overreacting, but I feel for him so much! As an asexual person, who's never been in a relationship, it feels pretty shitty to always be second choice to all your favourite people.
omg yes i felt the same way too with (who i thought were) my friends and i empathized so much with tao.
@@sapphire7888 glad I'm not the only one😭
He IS overreacting, thats the role point! Nobody is perfect and the way he acted to Charlie wasn't nice, but he learned and said sorry at the end! Charlie have a lot of traumas from when he got bullied, and so does Tao. They have diferent ways of coping with that and thats fine too, at the end of the day they are teens and still learning
@@eduardacaixeiro7481 only morons who think that friendship is less valuable than love or that friendship is an imperfect form of romantic/sexual love see that as overreacting. and they probably are the same people who dump friends they have known for years because of some dude/girl they have a crush on and then crawling back to them once it's over.
@@eduardacaixeiro7481 never said he isn't, just said that's all people choose to focus on and they never question why he is reacting the way he is
The way 6:16 "I am an ally" was such an Imogen meme, then telling to Imogen "you are not an ally" in 17:13 , the setup was perfect for the famous scene!
“if they’re not together by the end of the season i’ll be pissed” the rue and jules trauma effect hitting hard till this day 🤔
real
The “am I …” quiz is such an universal experience. Like honestly all my queer friends have taken at leaaast one. Also this reaction is coming at the best time to cheer me up. There were some really depressing news in my country lately and I just came home from pride. It’s actually really comforting to watch this rn.
No cause telling Imogen she’s not an ally without knowing that’s actually hilarious 😂
27:19 “put the love eyes away” 😂😂 literally died bc that exactly what o thought when watching it .. “y’all are definitely not hiding anything ”
OMG, when Ashley said "I'm an Ally" I CACKLED and I couldn't wait for her to get to that Imogen moment. hahahahahaahahahaa. So glad you watched the show Ashley!
6:15
Ashley: I am an ally
Tara: Congratulations
Darci: We thank you for your service
😂😂😂 iykyk
I love how mommy Ash and I harmonized in that "king of my heart" bit 😅
*charlie pushes nick down on the bed*
ash: "f math, f math, we're in biology b!tch, we're in chemistry"
Heartstopper: Nick and Charlie having a serious talk about Nick's confusion and the kiss
Ash: :I like his dinosaur!"
Me: 🤣
This show is a romance masterpiece. Trans and bi representation poc characters no sex just cute stuff I lived it
I cannot believe you didn’t freak out over the fact that Nick’s mum is THE Olivia Coleman, I love her sm ❤
29:38 The thing is Ash, before you’re out, and especially if you’re a guy, you’ll literally panic about any form of social contact with your partner in public. Even the smallest thing like helping a teammate get up will seem like a big deal.
Unfortunately, I did not have the privilege of dating anyone before I was open about my sexuality, but when I did start around 16, some guys I’d have things with who weren’t out yet would literally panic about even saying a “hi” in the hall - thus me understanding Ben’s negative reaction in the first episode; it might seem irrational for someone who hasn’t lived it, but it felt incredibly relatable to me and probably to a lot of other queer viewers (even though we eventually figure out Ben’s a terrible person).
I also thought that it was just a rule of competitive sports that when someone gets injured, you're not allowed to go to them. You're supposed to stay away so medical staff can get to them quickly.
Ashley just seems so cool to hang around with. Her personality is unique. Heartstopper is a heart-warming show overall.
Imogen going
“I’m not like homophobic.. ✨i’m an ally✨”
Made me HOWL! One of the best lines of the show by far!
I had to rewind that scene as soon as I watched cause her delivery/facial features were toooooo perfect haha
& also her smiling at nick at the end?? She really is wholesome I wanted to cryyyyy
@@redemptionlibera9758 FORREAL!!!! ✊🏽😫
I think she's going to show up more as an ally in the second season.
@@redemptionlibera9758 the smile is when I was like "Okay NOW you're an ally."
15:26 mathematics is a plural word so when it’s abbreviated it’s plural too :)
fun fact: the actor who plays ben got multiple videos taken down on tiktok for bullying his own character, and loves to be known as the captain of the ben hope hate club
One of the best things about Nick and Charlie is that Alice Oseman (the author of the Hearstopper comics, and who also writes the show) already said they will never break up, so we can just enjoy them being cute and in love and growing up together.
I love the bi validity. It’s as rare as hell on TV. Also, I would die for Nellie
WILL U B WATCHING S2
Ash every time Tara and Darcy have a scene together: “This is definitely fruity. This one has a little sweetness to it.”
the beauty of heartstopper is the wholesomeness and representation of queer happiness. this is the kind of shows we need more of!!!
Highkey recommend watching Young Royals too, it's a Swedish series with a lot of the same vibes but a little more mature and with extra ~drama~ bc one of them is a prince
yesss i love this show
it’s literally my favorite show on netflix 😭 i can’t wait for season 2 this winter
They better not mess up season 2 like Netflix does with so many of their shows
I loved Young Royals more than heartstopper they better not ruin it
YES! Desperately need ash to react to young royals it's definitely one of the best on netflix imo! And beautiful representation
As an older Millennial (34) the "Am I gay" quizzes at the dawn of the internet were SUCH a thing. Love this show, and wish we could have had something growing up like this.
young royals has a poc playing the love interest of the main character! you shoukd definetly check it out
bestie i hope you’re doing okay
we need to talk about queen olivia colman a emmy and oscar winner being part such small but important show is so iconic of her ❤ 💜 ♥
Yeah, she's one of the few reacters to not mention Olivia Coleman. As it's not really advertised that she's Nick's mom at all so people who have only seen the trailer (or have seen nothing about the show) for the show get fucking blindsided by Olivia fucking Coleman being in the show.
11:17 "We like tea and CROMPETS"
watching in preparation for s2🙌
not me convincing myself Ash would watch the whole season in 30 minutes 💀
I can't wait for the reaction to the rest of the show! I wasn't expecting a Heartstopper reaction, but I knew it was gonna be amazing, as always!! as someone who read the webcomic, i felt adding Imogen for drama was a tad unnecessary. still lovely to see the character development of both Nick and Imogen, and she did have the iconic "I'm an ally" moment! a part of me kinda wishes her character had served as one of Nick's friends whom he trusted to confide in, or at least be more comfortable around as he's learning more about his sexuality. it's still a lovely first season, though, and I can't wait to watch the next ones!!
lmao I did too!
As a Brit yeah this show is amazing! And it’s actually like how schools are not like how most shows seem to Think British schools are. Also I love your videos ash!
The "A" in "ur internet mom ash" stands for ✨Ally✨
B i t c h!! I CRIED the entire show like a baby 😭 I was having a MOMENT and definitely felt akin to you when you are clearly into a series. 😂 I was like damn mother Ashley would be so proud. 🥲 so glad you are finally getting to watching this!!! I definitely agree with you about it feeling scaled to a younger demo but it still very much hit my heart. It gave me that feeling of being that age again- the angst, the uncertainty, the FEELS were all there. I was Charlie in middle/high school. I love this series and am impatiently waiting for season 2!
22:07 oh wow good catch ash i never rly noticed that nick just opts to say he's feeling ~normal~ when asked and that adds sm to the story and the development of his character
If you notice, he only says “normal” when it’s a lie. He says normal after witnessing the assault and then when he is so confused about himself.
this show is so wholesome and I’m so happy we have nick as our bicon 😭
need part 2 asap. nick and elle are my favorites and charlie must be protected at all costs
Girl! I was just recommended this video and Omg I absolutely love you, you are my new favourite person 😄🫶🏼 everything you said, is exactly what I was thinking when I watched it for the first time.
I didn’t know anything about it upon watching and now I literally watch it at least once a week. It’s amazing, the cast, crew and writers are all incredible for making this show and letting everyone know it’s ok to be whoever you want to be. The representation and how it hits you in the feels is so real 🥺🍁🍂
When you said about why does it matter what/ who you are? If its not about you personally, why does it matter who someone else likes or/are in love with.
Makes my heart hurt so much that we’ve come so far in this world but there’s still such a way to go 🥺🫶🏼
Love is a beautiful thing and when you find your person, why is it anyone else’s business but their own.
I’ve never understand the hatred either. love is love ❤️🧡💛💚💙💖💜🖤🤍
I hope I find my Nick/ Charlie one day. They’re so adorable I can’t cope. The way they care so much, always check in with each other and have so much respect for each other is gorgeous.
And the consent and boundaries set throughout all the relationships (Apart from B*n ofc) platonic and loving, that’s how it should be in any relationship!
Btw, I haven’t even watched this whole
Video yet! I was just smiling so much at your reactions that I had to comment at 20 minutes in 😂🫶🏼
When you said “king of my heart” I literally screamed BODY AND SOUL OOWOAHHH at the exact time 😭😭
i relate to my core
Babe wake up it's time to vicariously watch Netflix shows through ash ❤️
ash when she says she’s an ally and then saying imogen is not an ally lmao
I think I love this show a lil extra because it reminds me sm of my friendgroup and how wholesome and validating everyone is 🥺🥺🥺
What I love about this show is that it’s really open about sexuality, and hiring actual young adults to play teenagers
The amount of times I cried during heartstopper is embarrassing lol
DEADASS. I cried like 6 times lmao
Girl, you never miss! The hilarious commentary, the allyship, the rep reference.. this is why I’m here. 🙌🏻
“I’m an ally”
Me: Oh honey this show is gonna call you out and I am here for it 😂😂
Listen, we all love a one bed trope. Especially when it's friends to lovers or enemies to lovers. No shame in that!
Anyone who doesn't like it has bad taste
I was smiling this entire video. Regarding 30:51 I'm literally 20 and I'm revellinggggg in this cheesy show. THE GAYS NEED CUTE ROMCOMS TOO not just straight people. Netflix took my only representation away as a black lesbian (First Kill's cancellation) so I'll take all that I can get tbh
Yep! First kill definitely didn't deserve the block. It barely had any support or advertising in the first place!
Ash react to first kill WHEN??!!
Wait first kill got cancelled? Everyone I knew loved that show
@@adeleaslan8182 it got canceled because of low viewership which is bullshit because First Kill had double the watch time that Heart Stopper had and stayed in the Top 10 for like 4 weeks straight alongside Season 4 of Stranger Things and I think Surviving Summer
You should give Wynonna Earp a try! It's one of my favorites 🥰
Loved the show and love your reactions! I'm gonna need the second part ASAP.
I'm so glad CZcams randomly recommended this video!!!! First time watching Ash and I already love her!
AHHHH YES FINALLY, I absolutely adore everyone's friendships and relationship dynamics🥺😭 (EXCEPT FOR BEN AND HARRY FRICK YOU GUYS, YA'LL KNOW WHAT YA'LL DID)
This show is everything, I love that they actually bring up the topics instead of just hinting at stuff and all the things tackled are just so comforting. I love that we’re getting a proper LGBTQIA teen show that feels more realistic and not so dramatised, also love the diversity
Another great show is Young Royals, it’s a bit more dramatic but honestly another great European show
Also I literally cried every single episode of Heartstopper, it was almost concerning, Nick and his mum (Olivia Colman the legend) are just the cutest, I love how she reacts to Nick‘s coming out. Nick is literally the best, such a golden retriever
Also love the cast, they’re so fun irl
i was literally WAITING for you to react to the series!!!! I'm in love with the show, and am sooooo eager for s2!!
When you said: "I see a cute cashier and I'm already planning our wedding."
I felt that real hard. I was like, "why are we talking about my life?"
Ashley really just said ✨“I am an ally” ✨
Heartstopper is so good. As a teen member of lgbtq+ I love this show. it is so realistic, it feels like all these situations could happen and it just works. This show makes me so happy, except it does give many emotions because it is so relatable and understandable and the way it is made gets you invested.
YESSS! It's the fact that all the situations are very realistic and plausible compared to being held at gunpoint or some wild west gang type shit.
OMG WHEN SHE MENTIONED POC AND FIRST KILL CANCELLATION!!! I was like right!!! For this particular story I don’t mind both of the guys being yt. I really just care about the story which is good and the chemistry is good
Also Charlie is Spanish...so he does have a significantly darker skin tone than Nick in the comics. But yeah, still white, technically. Young Royals is the show for Ash if she wants gay romance with a poc lead! It's darker and so far...not a HEA like Heartstopper is. But it's better than nothing, I suppose.
@sewer~rat Doesn't change the fact that he does in fact have a different skin tone than Nick in the comics. 🤷♀️ But yes, he's technically half Spanish half British. And is not very good at speaking Spanish with his relatives.
This show is the cutest, I am SO HAPPY to see you watch it and witness the adorable-ness of it all (◕‿◕)
