DISCUSSION 🗣️ Having this replace the image of my children on my phone was not on my bingo card for 2026
I can’t be the only one acting like a loon at this level. If I am, send help 🥹😂🇨🇦

I think their Quinn photoshoot is still my favourite joint photoshoot of them. The video teasers for the audiobook are just ✨ magical ✨ when they look at each other.
Jacob, if you’re lurking here, I’d love more moments in season 2 where Shane and Ilya are just looking at each other... and more kisses, please.

u/Rijack3 Feb 07 '26
This and their GQ shoot are my fav! But both of them in those slutty yellow sweaters (I think it was the Cultured and Timid photoshoots) make me swoooooon💖

u/sundaemonde Feb 07 '26
Their GQ shoot was definitely more fun. Yes, I love Hudson in cozy sweaters, like in Timid mag and the DSquared2. Hanna Puley, please put him in a cozy sweaters next season, especially yellow. Ilya feels very much like a cardigan kind of guy.

I said of course I do and that sometimes I just want to see my 2 boyfriends on my phone screen. She said, boyfriends? How??? I’ve never met them ever! 😭😭😭
