From:Yeah, but at the same time, though, it's like when Michael stayed and even went back to the Big Q but yet stayed in the closet while he was working there. People have their own reasons for doing things, y'know? And - due to the time constraints of the show - we don't always get to see what those motivations are. Still, as a half-out-of-the-closet gal myself (out to my brother and his family, but not to my mum), I really do feel that if you don't feel you're closeting yourself for the sake of somebody else - if you have your reasons - then that's your business, y'know? Not everybody is gonna be out and loud and proud - sometimes maybe because, quite simply, it's not their style. Ethan's not one of the out and proud types, to start with, I don't think. He's not ashamed of it, of course, but it's just... not an issue with him. My written-Ethan is just plain comfortable with himself and who he is - he doesn't need to hop up on the nearest trashcan with a loudspeaker and proclaim that he is gay, gay, gay, goshdarnit!
Having said that, though, the deal-with-the-devil contract situation will be touched on and dealt with in this fic!
and he's been so stuck over-intellectualizing everything with his friends and being detached and "mature" that he hasn't learned to honestly listen and really SAY ANYTHING, or how to appreciate being young, flippant, and vividly alive while you can.
(and hell -- that last part? is partially the reason I dislike watching him on screen. reminds me WAY too much of myself at 17. you know how that goes. *g*)
Well, see, in my head, my Ethan is about 21 or 22 years old... and he's already experienced the clubbing and the gay life and the teenage stuff and found that it just wasn't to his taste. Which is also pretty true of Ethan on the show, since he mentions to Justin about how he got bored with the whole clubbing scene while he was with a previous boyfriend.
I very much see an old soul in Ethan's body... he loves classical music and his violin, indie film and talking about films and music with his friends. His music is so much a part of who he is, talking shop with his friends is him being vividly alive... because playing is one of the few times he really does feel it. That, and when he was with Justin, because I do believe Ethan really did love him. It's one thing to never have experienced those things first hand... but it's something else entirely to try it and decide that, after a while, it's just not for you.
