okay but like it’s now canon that TK sometimes randomly shows up to the Reyes house to chill with Andrea and Gabriel?? like it’s his family too now—he doesn’t always have to be accompanied by Carlos cause that’s TK’s parents too now. Also you can’t change my mind that the whole vegan thing was introduced by Strands. Like I can just imagine Owen calling Andrea and bugging her for weeks to switch to a vegan diet to bring Gabriel’s cholesterol levels down while TK is hiding his face because “come on, dad!!”. While Carlos is just basking in all this love and the fact that he gets to have this okay bye I will be sobbing for the next few years—

one of the moments that always gets me in 2x12 is carlos pausing, as tk's urging him to jump out the window and promising he'll be behind. he says later he didn't think they'd make it out. so he pauses and turns back and tries to think, amidst his panic, of what to say. i love you? you've changed my life in ways i didn't think were possible? you're my soulmate? thank you, for everything. and in that moment he can't, because those words don't happen like this. one moment he's kissing down tk's neck and the next his house is on fire and he's going to lose everything, including this one person who changed everything for him. who gave him something he didn't even know he was missing until he had it. this was definitely not their first 'i love you' and he knows those words are for the quiet moments, when they're laying in bed together, or shouted across the room as one of them leaves for work, or murmured into each other's skin as they're cooking or cuddling or grocery shopping. not when the house is on fire and they may not make it out. and carlos is so stunned and panicked and he can't bring himself to get the words out but he also can't say nothing, can't let their last moments together (if these are that) be like this.

At the end you can see Carlos brace himself for more conflict, for a bigger fight- but it never comes. I think LS has spent a lot of time on TK's trauma and history, now it's time to do the same for Carlos. This season has shown us that he has brought a lot of his own baggage into this relationship, but it's nothing that TK won't unload with him and that' s really meaningful. Carlos has been on the receiving end of a lot rejection that has left a lasting impression on him. Having TK learn about things he's been scared to share (his parents, Iris, not wanting kids, etc.) and come back ready to face it is helping him heal. This all just makes me more and more excited for the continued progression of their relationship.

I really believe that the reason tarlos is so loved by many is because it's the ship that our generation has been waiting for since forever. A ship that doesn't have to exist in headcanons (which are all valid and true in their own right because no one can rob you of your interpretation of the characters that mean the most to you).
This is a queer couple existing within a high-paced show that's not focused only on romance. A couple existing not just for the sake of PR points. A gay couple that has not been queer-baited from the get-go, and has had unapologetically canon sexual tension from the very start. A couple that genuinely fits into the piece of the plot and are written with the care and love that we've ALL been craving for.
Tumblr media
I'm thinking of all the examples of fan-favourite ships that have stayed too long as non-canon: Destiel. Buddie. Stony. Stucky. Geraskier. Sterek. Just, there's so many platonic ships that had the potential to grow into something more and just... didn't. And I'm not here to dunk on those character choices because platonic love is genuine, true and equally deserving of attention but. There's just something different about being able to see pieces of growth from your favourite blorbos on screen blossoming from a seed into a whole-ass tree. Because that's honestly what I feel looking at tarlos. (Re: wedding)
Tumblr media
We've been waiting a long time for a ship like this, I think. Or at least, I have. A ship in a fast-paced series that isn't a romcom but still has the space to breathe and be real. (if anyone knows more pls rec em). yeah. i'm so whipped for them.

anyone who thinks TK doesn’t have any control over his emotions is fucking wrong because someone pointed out how handsome Carlos is and this man composed himself from word vomittinf for the next 780 years about how handsome isn’t even a word one could use to address Carlos—that man is fucking beautiful and beyond—because he was on a time crunch sjshsskks in this essay i will—

Honestly a little surprised that you are "not mad" that Carlos didn't tell TK this huge secret in all the time they've been together. Especially after the way he acted about TK and his sponsor. Yeah the set-up for this storyline was non-existant and that's bad writing, but also, Carlos's complete lack of remorse and TK's complete lack of a reaction to the news makes me feel like I'm watching pod people. Is TK gunning for sainthood? Even if the set-up was there the way they handled the reveal just makes no sense.
Look, this is a man who spent four-six months of a break up lying to his parents about the break up and the fact that they weren’t living together anymore in a time period that included major holidays AND TK’s birthday.
He hates confrontation (I have a whole meta on it) and his anxiety is like for real bad (therapy Carlos my love please)
This is not new or news.
I’m going to detour (but bring it back around): this morning I was catching up on the Drama Queen’s podcast and they were discussing a storyline in which a half a married couple admits he’s lied by omission and his wife was physically injured due to this lie. And Sophia Bush (my angel, my love) brought up how as a person with severe anxiety (like me and Carlos and the queen herself) learns from a very young age to not bring their anxiety and worries to other people but to feel that they have to have a solution to the problem before they let others in.
The need to have an solution ready before he loops anyone else in is a VERY common behavior in Carlos. We see it from season one through season three. This is an area of growth for him.
Do I believe Carlos should have told TK long ago: yes.
Is this a flaw in Carlos’s character: absolutely
Does TK have every right to be pissed and hurt: most certainly.
But it’s Carlos turn to do the growing. We’ve gotten three seasons of TK’s character development arc start with a failed proposal in the series premiere and end with a successful proposal in the season three finale. TK’s ability not to immediately internalize this as Carlos thinking he was too fragile to handle this news and recognizing that Carlos has been drowning in his anxiety and guilt and shame over this and THAT is why he didn’t say anything, is outstanding and amazing and WHY Tarlos works. They take turns being the messy one.
So no, I’m not mad with Carlos. I don’t think not telling TK with the depth of guilt and shame and Carlos’s history of conflict avoidance is out of character. I do not blame others for being mad at Carlos and TK definitely has every right to surface his mad about this later after processing and when Carlos isn’t on an anxiety spiral.
I said it last season and I will say it again this season: we are watching two men with two different manifesting mental health issues navigate a relationship. They’re both doing their best but they will still hurt each other in the process of doing their best. Sometimes their best isn’t enough.
That’s marriage, kids, especially when you throw in depression, anxiety, substance abuse, internalized homophobia, and stressful jobs.
