The biggest part of Love, Simon is the email communication between Simon and a fellow closeted gay student that goes by the pseudonym Blue. Although Victor frequently appears on "Creek Secrets" (the blog where Blue and Simon connect), he doesn't use it to seek out someone going through the same things as he is. Instead, he DMs Simon on Instagram, not expecting him to answer, and vents all of his frustrations as someone that's still trying to figure things out. The pair continue their correspondence throughout the show, with Simon serving as a guide for Victor.
