Do you ever feel like you're only doing things because everyone else is? And you're scared to change?
Nick Nelson in Heartstopper, Season 1 Episode 5Charlie: "You didn't have to do that. I'm used to people saying stuff about me."
Nick: "No. But you shouldn't have to be. People shouldn't be saying stuff about you in the first place. You shouldn't have to put up with anything like that."
Tao Xu: "If he is even slightly mean to you...-"
Charlie: "...you'll murder him."
Tao Xu: "I was going to say I'd send him a strongly worded DM, but murder's fine too."
I know people have hurt you. And you feel like I'd be better off without you, but I need you to know that my life is way better because I met you.
Nick Nelson in Heartstopper, Season 1 Episode 8Nick: "Stop picking on people for no reason!"
Harry: "Aw! Are you gay for them?"
Tao: "Classic Harry. Resorting to homophobia when you can't think of a good comeback. Life must be really hard when your only personality trait is rich bell-end."
If you want my attention that badly, why don't you throw something at me again? Like your last remaining brain cell?
Tao Xu in Heartstopper, Season 1 Episode 6You clearly didn't get hugged much as a child, but if you're craving human contact that badly, you could just say so.
Tao Xu in Heartstopper, Season 1 Episode 7Charlie: "They all probably think I'm this, like, gay nerd."
Nick: "Well, you kind of are a gay nerd."
Nick: "Did I forget something?"
Charlie: "Yeah."
Wow. I feel so sorry for the popular rugby lad who's almost getting picked on because he dares to hang out with someone below his popularity status.
Tao Xu in Heartstopper, Season 1 Episode 5Charlie: "How do I stop liking someone? Specifically, a straight guy."
Mr Ajayi: "A question for the ages."
I just think I need some time to figure this out.
Nick Nelson in Heartstopper, Season 1 Episode 4It's hard to be confident when they all see me as a stereotypical gay boy who can't do sports.
Charlie Spring in Heartstopper, Season 1 Episode 4Nick: "It's called bisexuality... if you've heard of that?"
Nick's mother: "I have heard of that. I wasn't born in the 18th century."
As your token straight friend, it's my duty to remind you that sometimes people are straight.
Tao Xu in Heartstopper, Season 1I'm just so sorry I ran away last night. I was just freaking out because... I was confused and surprised and, like, honestly I'm having a proper, full-on gay crisis.
Nick Nelson in Heartstopper, Season 1 Episode 4Charlie: "I'm sorry."
Nick: "No. You're not allowed to say the 's' word."
Charlie: "All my friends are showing up in a bit to watch me play."
Nick: "All your friends?"
Charlie: "Tao, Isaac and Elle."
Clearly, I need to be here to get tips on how to be good at rugby.
Charlie Spring in Heartstopper, Season 1 Episode 4Tao: "You should talk to him."
Nick: "Yeah, so should you."
Tao: "No. I'm gonna stay pissed off with him for a bit longer."
You should try rugy. It's good for releasing negative emotions.
