Thank you for understanding charlie’s perspective of leaving christmas to go to Nick’s house. I’ve seen so many people hate on Charlie for leaving and although i also feel for Tori and i wanted him to take her with him, i don’t think people realize the stress and mentality that Charlie was in in that moment and that he just needed to get out😭😭

Yeah I don't get that, it was basically an 'I need to escape or I am going to explode' rather than him just simply dismissing her cause he wanted to see his boyfriend

24:20 I couldn’t agree more with the idealistic communication. Realism has an important place to be sure but how many people out there wish they knew the “right” thing to say. It’s lovely there are examples out there.

So, this episode is, for the most part (and for the most part I mean just Christmas day), an adaptation of This Winter, a really short novel of Alice. You probably have it already, and I recommend reading it! It has a ton of skipped information and cool dialogue, as well as being narrated from the point of view of the 3 Spring siblings, so you'll get to see a bit of Tori's perspective on things. Personally, I found a lot of cute details this episode thanks to reading This Winter, such as recognising some minor characters that went unnamed in the adaptation and knowing some of the stuff that happened off-camera at some points

I love that they gave Tori more to do this season. One of the things that blew me away this season was the incredible chemistry between Joe and Jenny. They’ve always had it, but this season turned it up a notch.❤❤

THEY WERE SO GOOD, I just need some more exploration of Tori now as I worry so much about her 😭

So well said about Tori's mental health part. I don't think people realise much about Tori's stress and mental dependency on Charlie. Charlie didn't '"leave" her for Nick, he was running away from a breakdown. But at the same time, Tori was left "alone", even when they get their whole family in that house. It's only because what she said, he is the only one she cares about. So I understand their decisions on the Christmas day. Charlie gets himself out of that situation, and should Tori. The character is quite different from the one in the graphic novel, if I may say. In the series, Tori expresses more, but clearly not enough. The discussion between Nick and aunt Diane should be heard and delivered to everyone, including Tori.

I have to say that as unrealistic as the skill is with which these kids talk about their emotions, I agree with you - I prefer it over the "realistic" narratives we usually see. Because people - not just kids their age, but anyone watching this - deserve to see a good, positive, healthy way to talk about some of these things. Not just the willingness to talk about it, but some actual things to *say* during those conversations that they might not have thought of. Queer narratives in particular are so important to depict in media for exactly these reasons, and I will take a show that maybe gives us an idealized narrative that can also provide folks a healthy starting place to discuss some of these things over the sort of narrative that is maybe more realistic, but just not helpful.
