Edvin Ryding as Prince Wilhelm of Sweden Young Royals, Season 2 Episode 2

No but even on top of Omar's chef's kiss ✨ acting in this scene (the how-dare-u glare, the pause, the blatant lie, ughh the knowing SMILEE), its just so so well executed.

Right when Wille lets the audience know that he'd let Simon go, with genuine conviction, and complete acceptance in his heart, this scene comes along and sets the gears into motion.

It's a straight up prophesy, like fate personified, walking off into the dark fog of defeat and turning back, ever so slightly, with a smirk, right before disappearing. Like an "Or so you thought" right at the end of a chapter.

When Marcus threatened to cross the boundry of the mental space and memory where Simon kept Wille, something clicked within him. I like to think that in that pause, Simon learnt the truth about himself: that Wille was still there, in his heart. He had never really let him go. And that Marcus was nowhere near what Wille was to him.

"They don't have names" is such a fucking power move. It's the shutting of doors on Marcus' face, the proof of his loyalty to Wille. Unbeknownst to Marcus or Wille, and only to himself, this is the first time Simon stands his ground and speaks his mind truthfully without Marcus' manipulations. And he gets away with it flawlessly.

And man. Nothing gets to me like small subtle actions that hold so much weight and history. I mean look at his smile. He knows what he said.

if you think forcing an 18yo to come out before he is ready is activism, then just go fuck yourself. you're not helping the community, you're not helping anyone. you're just a bully.

GOOD LORD I LOVE HOW THE TEMPERATURE ON HIS FACE VISIBLY DROPS 20 DEGREES

This season has been serving me with looks alone 🥺

[darlingedvin]

wilhelm really heard simon say “i love you so much even if we have to be a secret it’s alright” and replied “that simply will not do” and confessed to the entire nation of sweden. is this show even real

[darlingedvin]

edvin did phenomenal with wille's anxiety this season. I saw myself in a lot of the scenes where wille was struggling. when he's on the phone with his mom in ep 1 (I think it was ep1 I can't remember), or when he was getting his suit tailored, or the before the presentation. I knew what he was feeling. I've been so anxious, I threw up and then wrapped myself in a blanket burrito until I felt ok again.

it just felt nice to see something so personal to me, and I know many others, be represented so well. edvin did amazing

[darlingedvin]

I’m sure what Edvin was talking about when saying that he had a hard time defending wille actions this season is kissing simon for the first time in that costume

Wille did nothing wrong this season 📣 I even forgave the wig

wille got therapy this season and destroyed the monarchy, who's doing it like him?

I don't want to see a single damn person laughing about this picture again and I'll tell you why:

Wilhelm is fighting a panic attack. He is actively battling every ounce of anxiety in his body. He cannot have a panic attack right now. He is on the phone with The Royal Court explaining (albeit not effectively) that he does not want to be King. He does not want to give a speech. He does not want this title. And, yes, this realization and the willingness to call stemmed from stupid teenage bullshit like his ex being out on a date with someone else, but it's a truth nonetheless. Wilhelm is telling the truth. And it makes him anxious.

When you have severe anxiety, it often feels like you are not in control of your body at all. You want to climb out of your skin. We see it with Wilhelm in season 1 when he bangs on his head or picks at his nails. He cannot control it.

In season 2 we see it with his shirt collar, we see it in his inability to keep still, and in the fact that he literally throws up at the thought of talking in front of his classmates. So, yes, getting on the desk was odd and unexpected, but he's actively pushing down years of anxiety. He has been fighting this phone call for years and now he cannot ignore it anymore.

Edvin did a spectacular job with Wilhelm's anxiety this season. He did amazing last season, too, but this is next level. Seeing people laugh at this screenshot makes me physically sick.
