The Fry Chronicles: A friendship that makes you want to cry constantly.
I’m about half through now and I’ve realized how much Hugh Laurie has impacted his life.
If it were not Stephen, Hugh would be the center focus. There are other people, of course, lovers and friends and such. But there not touched on in same way. What he has with Hugh is the most important happening in his life.
The way he talks of others in a sole context but with Hugh it’s always “Hugh and I” together.
The way they were drawn to each other before their meeting.
The way they clicked instantaneously as if it always has been and was meant to be.
The way Hugh’s written about in such an affectionate manner.
His pride for Hugh’s talents. His love for him to the point of him almost getting choked up about it.
I started to cry at that point. I cannot begin to explain to why their friendship is so precious to me. When they talk about each other, they just light up.
It’s so fully returned, strong, and real.
