Joong, please learn how to cry on that First, Khao, Gun level baby, because Style is a sexy seducer, and he is gonna wreck Fadel!

LOOK AT HIM!

You don't wanna give him your heart.

BUT LOOK AT HIM!

Your brother is the one who started this entire thing!

And even though you think you can protect your heart,

LOOK AT THIS MAN!

He is going to fuck you up.

So please, go ask your seniors how to cry those thug tears (First and Khao think about being split up and tears start following; Gun thinks about how he is the prettiest man ever, and it makes him sad to know no one else will ever be as good as him), AND GIVE ME A RIVER! I want to build in ark with the flood of tears that will come from you.

You will open your heart to this man, and he will betray you.

I'm investing in flood insurance because I have faith in you babe. Make me take that betrayal personally. Yok in a wheelchair style. You hear me? I still haven't forgiven Gawin for a character he played because First cried so well, so make me hate this pretty bitch.

#I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL #the heart killers #prob my number 1 show from the recent presscon

the impulsive and inescapable desire to draw each of the papa louie characters in my style and write a massive fanfic about them that deviates so far from canon it’s basically original work with papa louie names

#papa louie #i’ve been flirting with this idea a little too much #if it happens i can kiss my grades goodbye tho #all my time will be spent on this

The Center of the 23.5 Universe

In our solar system, the Earth revolves around the Sun on a tilted axis, yet . . .

Sun stops moving for Ongsa even though Ongsa doesn't even notice until Sun calls out to her.

Sun approaches Ongsa

and pulls Ongsa upright after Ongsa tilts.

She helps Ongsa move when Ongsa becomes stuck.

Because Sun always has her eyes on Ongsa.

Ongsa knows the Earth revolves about the Sun.

But the show is telling us that Sun revolves around Ongsa.

Because this show has already told us it's geocentric by making Ongsa the main character, and Earth is the center of this universe.

So Sun tilts toward Ongsa.

She moves closer to Ongsa.

Because Ongsa is the center of Sun's universe.

I’m 90% sure they’re working with Jojo again, and I say this as someone who doesn’t particularly want that lol. But there’s just soooo many coincidences and match ups with what jojo and fk have said, not to mention that one video with the tattoo… it feels likely.

I’d bet at the very least they already filmed a trailer or are gonna film one for part 2, simply because they’ve never denied having a series in it/have acted very teasingly ambiguous when asked, as opposed to ppl like say, gun who has straight up told fans he has nothing coming up.

That’s what my gut is telling me as well. There’s just no other explanation for that tattoo video. Like what was that??

P’Jojo has said that he has two projects in the works. He’s mentioned a show a la 3 will be free but make it a rom-com and also a modern Shakespeare adaptation. I have no clue if those are the same project or not 😂

My guess would be that FK are getting that rom-com and it’s similar to the kind of mafia show they’ve been asking for for years, so I’m happy for them.

It’s funny because I very much have a love/hate relationship with P’Jojo’s work. He’s directed some of my favorite shows and also some of my least favorite. But The Warp Effect, which is also a rom-com, is one of my favorite shows of all time–not even just including Thai media—so I think if he can find a good writer, we might be in for something really special.

Me and my friend quote this to each other all the time LOL

[if-i-was-a-cucumber]

i just started watching destiny seeker (2023)! this show is sort of cute and weird in an old type of way but i like it so far. ai and songkhram are super cute as a dynamic but that’s not really what i’m here to say.

there is something inherently joongdunk about this show. i literally have no idea how to explain it, but once upon a time i gazed at songkhram’s eyebrows for a minute too long, saw joong on his face, and now the whole series seems joongdunk–coded.

*SPOILER WARNING*

ai was propositioned to fuck someone’s debts away and almost did it for a friend he didn’t even like? tell me you can’t see dunk acting his shit off in that role. songkhram angrily telling him that he can’t because it’s not right/dignity/etc? okay joong archen.

the car scenes where songkhram drives (see above)??? i mean something about a car with red seats and dunk in the passenger’s seat is so joongdunk. i’m not even going through a joongdunk phase rn this is all natural.

it’s songkhram’s intense confidence while ai is more lost than my parents when i start talking about gay people. TELL ME YOU DON’T SEE JOONGDUNK IN THESE TWO

#destiny seeker #destiny seeker the series #idk if this is a popular enough series for people to understand what i'm saying #joongdunk #am i a clown? maybe it was just the eyebrows #but smth's telling me there's more to it

I truly hope gmmtv start treating milklove and viewjune the way they treat their BL actors let them have concerts and events and fan meets let this lead to ALL of the women getting this

#PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE #this with namtanfilm as well #like i just know namtanfilm would be the death of me #if they get marketed as and i get blessed with the fcs and ig edits #i think my life would be fulfilled

Wandee Goodday Q8

21.02.24

[if-i-was-a-cucumber]

I was only realizing as I read this — Dynamite and his friend group ARE visibly queer. I think all of the queer media I consume must have finally normalized queerness to me that I couldn’t even recognize how Dynamite’s friend group is more visibly queer than Fire’s friend group is. Growing up in a Christian household, I was always hyper aware of anything that might make me or anyone else come off as not straight, but now I can say I don’t even recognize it anymore.

I genuinely never clocked that Dynamite, Prem, and Samsee look different. They’re more feminine types, more traditionally homosexual, less “acceptable” to the heteronormative public. It reminds me of how Green was portrayed in 2gether (read an epic post abt how he’s a less acceptable gay and that’s why the narrative finds it okay to bully him but respect Sarawat and Tine).

Hi, what's your 30 favorite Asian BL characters from dramas or series you've watched? (unless you don't have that many) Thanks.

Nonnie, respectfully, that's just too many characters to write about. However, I have written about The Knowing and why I identify with those characters, and I've written about Framboise, one of my favorite characters of all time.

However, now is as good a time as any to join @lurkingshan and @waitmyturtles in reaffirming my love for Dynamite!

In her post, Turtles talked about how Dynamite and Fire are products of internalized and externalized homophobia. Shan went on in her post to talk about how their story works because of how Fire shifts as he becomes comfortable with himself and his relationship with Dynamite.

I think part of why I feel so protective with it comes to Dynamite and his friends is that I care so much for fem gay men and the kinds of visible queers that don't get loved, especially when they're assertive about themselves. It was always obvious to me why Dynamite, Prem, and Samsee were together. They're all lonely queers who don't expect others to love them or take care of them.

I've noticed over the last decade that fandom really struggles with friend groups like these. It was somewhat similar with the SCOY quartet on the front end, especially Toh. I often wonder if there is a component of visible queerness or gender play that doesn't reach sections of the audience. However, as a gay man who is loved and protected by queers like this, these are my best friends. You've heard my best friend on @the-conversation-pod when David guests, and he is one of those queers. He is a fighter. I am not.

Prem and Samsee clearly know Dynamite's story. The crux of why Samsee is upset with Dynamite at the end of episode 9 and going into episode 10 is because he felt like he should have been trusted with something important about Dynamite. Samsee is the kind of man who is like Whoopi Goldberg: He doesn't want people in his house. However, he opens his door for Dynamite when he loses his apartment, and keeps letting him live there even when he's pissed. Samsee believes in his friends and loves them. Dynamite is the de facto leader of their friend group because they love and trust him. Dynamite is more than just his persistent attraction to Fire.

Dynamite likes Fire because Fire protected him from what clearly reads as a bashing. Dynamite has been thinking about that for years, and toughened himself up because of white Fire inspired in him.

We also know that Dynamite lost his parents to homophobia. You don't get a queer like Dynamite if they're loved and supported by the people who were supposed to do it. You get this when he's loved and supported by the people who chose him. I keep my guest room ready because we sometimes have to take care of a friend in the local community.

When Fire gets serious about Jane and weird about Dynamite, he backs off, forcing Fire to come after him. He knows that Fire is also into him, but he isn't going to be jerked around. It's the sincerity of Dynamite's attraction that makes Metha force Fire to reckon with how he's suppressing who he is.

More than anything, it's that Fire admits this to himself when he can't put up the front anymore. Dynamite is so important to me because so many of us who were closeted are like Fire. We pretend like we don't like gay men chasing us, like Intouch chasing Korn in UWMA, and then we lose them! You will lose confident gays like Dynamite if you treat them like shit and keep calling them annoying. Their friends will call you DL trash and you will not be invited out.

I just love Dynamite so much. He is the kind of gay character I love the most in BL. He's a kinda fem gay man who is earnestly pursuing his hot, super fit love interest. He has the support of his visibly-queer friends. He knows what he wants out of his relationship. He supports his partner through a major difficulty while still being clear about what he wants as secondary to his partner's safety. He is passionate about his goals, and wants to succeed with his friends (I ugly cried about their dish narrative in episode 10).

We have a fully-realized queer character surrounded by complex, layered queer characters. His story and those of his friends are about queer love making people's lives better. He will always be a favorite, and I really hope the people in the audience who've struggled with him can find more ways to appreciate him.
