Despite being someone who’s very closed off because he’s afraid of getting hurt, Keith always wears his heart on his sleeve when it comes to Shiro.
He didn’t hesitate calling for Shiro when he thought Shiro was going to leave him (his hallucination in Blade of Marmora).
He said to Shiro that he’ll save him, “as many times as it takes.”
He said “I love you.”
That his “life would’ve been very different without you.”
He went against orders to call off the bombs, despite having been warned by Kolivan to not let his emotions cloud his judgement, just because Shiro was there.
He begged Shiro to come back to life because he couldn’t deal with losing Shiro again.
He admitted he has issues opening up because he experienced loss as a child. For Keith to allow himself to be so vulnerable with a man he’s lost so many times before, that shows a level of trust and yearning that makes me so damn emotional.
Keith’s love for Shiro is so unrestrained that it goes against the self-preservation method he’s built up to protect himself from heartbreak. To him, loving Shiro is worth the risk.
A strict all girls boarding school is across a river from a strict all boys boarding school.
Boys and girls are forbidden from fraternizing, but they find sneaky ways to form friendships and even date. I assume there is heavily monitored internet and phones are for emergencies only so they have to resort to more unconventional methods of communication. (Messages in bottles, a system of mirrors, writing on chalkboards and putting them in the windows ect.ect.)
Until one day a shy boy at the boys boarding school tells his best friend (and the leader of a resident well meaning boys gang) that he actually feels more like a girl.
The gang leader contacts the leader of a girl gang across the river and they begin to plan an overly elobrate heist to smuggle the shy trans girl across the river in exchange for a chill tomboy and the two will assume each other’s lives until they graduate.
Hijinks ensue as they pull a ‘Great-Esacpe’ style mission to avoid detection from the overly strict headmasters and an overly passionate team of campus security guards.
Friendships are tested, there is lots of home-alone style logic to outsmart the adults, and there is romantic tension between the leaders of the gangs as they put aside their differences to help their two friends find a place to be themselves. It is light-hearted in tone but is also over the top and everyone plays it way too serious to the point of comedy. The two kids swapping places have classic “parent trap” style hijinks pretending to be the other person and avoid detection.
Think “kids next door” + “recess” but shot like a heist movie.
Add a funny character actor as a dopey but well meaning janitor and you got a stew going.
As a parent of two young impressionable children I 100% would take them to see this movie.
they have nerd out weekends to indulge in each other’s interests
