I know you’re probably snowed under with Happiest Season stuff, but I loved it and I just wanted to highlight one of the things I really loved – I loved how the movie made sure to show us how physically affectionate Harper is and wants to be. It’s just right, not too weird and porny, but not desexualised either – it’s soft and sweet with just the right dash of thirsty. She craves contact with Abby all the time, and you can see it even when she’s keeping up her Straight Face. A+

A bit snowed under, a bit. 😛

But yes! At the start and up till the effective turning point deliberately brought on by her parents almost catching her in Abby’s bed, she was extremely loving and affectionate, she was in love with her girlfriend and showed it, that’s all. It was nice and really provide a bunch of moments of them in the first half.

(closeted anon back again)Just wanted to add that it’s not like Harper and Abby were magically ok in the end, I’m glad they did away with the proposal storyline in light of everything that happened. THAT would’ve felt totally unrealistic to me to have Abby propose on Christmas morning still. In the credits you can see that they got engaged in October the following year – a full ten months of (hopefully) couple’s therapy and family counselling for Harper.

Oh, sorry, I should have combined this with your previous ask, I wasn’t sure at first which closeted anon you were but the longer ask I just answered, I’m assuming.

And yes, Clea pointed that out too, that they got engaged quite a while later and there is the assumption Harper and the couple’s issues aren’t all cleared up immediately. But I kind of wish they’d saved the proposal for the sequel, heh, although of course it was a sweet epilogue.
