I am spamming today, but I am tired and I don't feel good and I'm being avoidy about actually calling the hospital financial aid to start sorting all that crap out.
I don't actually even have meta, I just want to talk about Nathan's face and how much I love it. You guys, I love Nathan's face a LOT. It is actually sort of amusing to me because hands down my favorite character on Haven is Audrey. Like, without question. But my anxiety levels regarding her storyline and the mumblemumblespoiler things are so high that I can't even think about it directly without going into actual panic attacks. So I don't.
Nathan, on the other hand, and his stupid face and the way it does things to me emotionally. That I can wallow in while managing not to take myself too seriously. So I am. WALLOW. Watch me wallow. Nathan, your FACE. And your plastic fork of doom. And all your FEELINGS. <3 <3 <3 And babies. I love you so fucking much.

Re: Nathan's stupid face and his stupid everything else
Anyway, this is all to say that Nathan is a semi-closeted sensualist. (Or at least, maybe he thinks he's semi-closeted. But not to anyone who pays attention!)
Agreed! Though, I think Nathan thinks he is closeted about way more things than he is actually closeted about. He probably thinks he does a good job of appearing stoic. And I'm quite sure he believes no one can tell when he's having dirty thoughts about either Duke or Audrey. Bless.
Also, can we talk about his (deliberate) flirting skills? Because they are SO BAD. Some of that can be chalked up to his awkwardness about his affliction, but a great deal of it is just plain awkwardness, and I have a hard time figuring out how he got any before the Troubles came back. Except that he's very pretty. That probably helps. Now, unintentional flirting he's just fine at, just don't make him aware he is. Because that way lies a lot of facepalming. Oh, Nathan.

HEEEEE HEE HEE HEE AAAHAHAHAHAHAHA
...in short, yes, this is absolutely true. I just want to pinch his cheek. OH YOU ARE UNDOUBTEDLY FOOLING EEEEVERYBODY, BOYCHIK.

IKR? I mean, just to (slowly, slooooowly) move toward getting it on with Jess, he needed, like, two training wheels, Audrey and Jess in tandem, kind of hauling him up the hill like a very pretty sack of laundry. ...oh, Nathan.

And oh god, that whole scene with Audrey and Jess is amazing. I love that at one point they are basically 'okay, we're just gonna do this bit without you because this is getting painful'

Because yes, they're interacting and talking about a man, but in that particular case they're totally being canny (and eye-rolling) allies in a pro-active sisterhood--no competition or jealousy anywhere in sight--who are wisely trying to collaborate with each other in order to help poor Nathan and his poor stupid face. Even when he's standing right there.
