NO, WAIT.
LISTEN TO ME. IT CANNOT END LIKE THIS. I HAVE TOO MANY QUESTIONS.
That whole "reaching out for your ex-lovers hand that you swore you hated but now that he's at Death's door you realize you really don't hate him and oh gods that's a lot of blood" thing? IT WAS CRIMINAL. How dare they. I AM SOBBING.
And now Taeman is there, bleeding. And the Big Puppy saw him and. WHAT WILL HAPPEN NOW. Big Puppy will obviously help him — but when the questions come, WHAT THEN?!?!
AND WHAT IS WITH BLOND PUPPY AND BOSS?! WHERE ARE THEY?!?!
I AM SCREECHING.

"Do you think both of you can come out of this unscathed?"
"Yeah." ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
The barking noises I made. The screeching dinosaur noises I made. The simping is practically seeping out of my system.
These two episodes have been so great *deep inhale* love the scheming / acting parts. Loved the whole "OH, BUT YOU HAVE BEEN CALLING LEE HAN YOUNG, ARE YOU LOVERS OR SOMETHING?!" scheme. I snorted too hard when Prosecutor bae had to act all flustered AMDNSNNDND.
AND, honestly, I know the dog behing these barks is Han Young, but gods, I love the Prosecutor. I love the reporter. I love the blond bear. I love my lil' team of miscreants, Is2fg.
I need them to succeed. Or I will really go bald.

I SWEAR I FELT THAT "CRUSHING PHONE WITH HIS BARE HAND" MOMENT. I can't stop feeling like something bad's coming for the Boss and Blond Puppy. And I hate it here. My ship, estupidos.
Ibam also NOT ready for whatever will happen if Taeman ( or? Someone? Else? ) arrives at that apartment
I have two (2) fears

I wanted to see a pregnant belly. But. I will sate myself in imagining it.
I mean. After so much of THAT it really ought to happen. Lol.
Also. Man. That man is a beast???? Eating kitten like if it were the Olympics?!?!?
I haven't seen many male interests that don't hesitate to go down on their woman and — PHEW. This man really took one (1) look and said: I'm going to suck her dry.
Preach.
Love that for him. Love that for her. Love that for them.
I love the subtle ( but not really subtle ) implications that she's trapped. But, really, so is he.
I loved the bird metaphor.
I liked the story, really. I think I only needed to see the pregnant belly to satiate my needs.
( because the belly bulge was satiated, alright PHEW )
I liked this I liked this (๑•ㅂ•)و✧

I am SO ready to get freaked out again.
With this new art style, I am foreseeing creepier scenes. Like. Look at that face. If the scenes were alresdy creepy, now this style will get creepier. LESSGOOOO.
Also, just wondering if the ghost took the manager's face, or if he possessed the manager, OR if the ghost is supposed to look like the person you like.
I faintly remember a scene in which the manager suspiciously disappeared before the ghost appeared — but, well, it doesn't give too many answers.
Happy to see this ine back, though! I do need this sort of freaky shit because *chefs kiss*
( I wanna re-read this from the beginning ... but the first episodes are so messy that I will cry — but I will do it. For my country )

... and after hours of reading this and finishing all 50+ in one go, I have just one (1) thing to say : FUCK.
Kidding. I have two things to say and the second is : FUCK.
I AM HOLLERING.
I love how the author portrays criminals. I love how it is clear that even if they're bad and doing bad things — they have a reason to do so. I love how each of then is complex and while they might deny it, they are depicted as human.
I AM STRESSING OVER HERE because I know the time will come when Taeman has to tell Dahyuk stuff. Or Dahyuk will find out ... and then what?! What will he think?! What will he do?! For such a goodie two shoes, finding about what Taeman has done / does is going to hurt and I AM NOT READY FOR THAT.
And then! AND THEN! They had to give me Boss and Blond puppy. GRAAAA. Ever since Blond Pup arrived all drunk and Boss took care of him, I've been suspecting Blond Pup ain't in field missions because Boss is taking care of him ... AND NOW! Blond Pup is getting angry and doesn't believe Boss cares for him and :'D I have the feeling he will do something fucking stupid and I have one (1) fear.
( don't get me started on the whole "you have done this seventeen times" and the "have I also kissed you seventeen times?" And the "yes" and the "so I can do it again right?" I YODELED )
( ... mind, I don't remember if they were seventeen or seven ... I just remember a seven lol )
POINT IS. I AM EVEN CRYING BECAUSE PINK-HAIRED PUNK IS IN DANGER. I LIKE HIM TOO.
This is going to end me.
I am a ball of stress right now.
I am just waiting for the other shoe to drop and I'm not entirely sure I'm resdy for it.
( also, that scene between Taeman and Boss sparring? ... ahem ... I need more of that )
( also, I love that this doesn't contain porn-y scenes — everything is perfect as is ; yes, many people would love this story more with them — but I think it's just a good touch that it's so beautifully conservative )
IN CONCLUSION : I need more. And I will also need a whole box of tissues for when the angst and drama finally descends on all these puppies who are suddenly all mine.

I SWEAR I GOT SO EXCITED *clown face* as if this were my goddamn child. I swear. It's me, the clown.
THEY WILL LOOK SO CUTE WITH A GIRL. PLEASE. I WANNA SEE THESE TWO MONSTERS BEING OVER-PROTECTIVE OF HER. I NEED THIS CLICHE, WHOLESOME SCENE OF THESE TWO LOOKING DIRTY AT ANY OTHER CHILD THAT LOOKS AT THEIR DAUGHTER. LIKE. WHAT YOU LOOKING AT. STOP IT. DARLING, WHERE'S MY SWORD.
OMFG.
I NEED THIS. Poor girl will probably die single, but it's the price to pay, let's be honest.
BUT GGRRAAAAHH. YES. A GIRL.

Oh, please. I don't know why I missed the whole-ass implication that with the whole Egg business, they'd need a nest. And I'm sobbing. Is it going to be, like, a literal bird-nest? Or like a nest made out of fluffy pillows and blankets? And will they cuddle there together? To warm the egg? Will they take turns protecting the egg, like penguins? Will their baby haych like a literal bird and will they be there to remove the pieces of shell that get stuck in their lil head?! I HAVE QUESTIONS AND I WANT THE ANSWERS RN!
PS : I just realized that before they left the castle, Theo's hair was always combed back. And now that he's free, it flops on his forehead all adorably. Love that for Seth's man. Chefs kiss.

I swear, any more of this and I will go dry.
I love everything about it
Judge Lee and his dorky side has me in a chokehold. And then his Creepy, Danger-Babe moments are just CHEFS KISS.
The prosecutor, though — HE IS MY BABY, PRECIOUS BEAN AND BAE OF MY HEART. If something happens to him, I will kill everyone and then myself. No miss.
ALTOUGH, I do be loving the whole friendship between the Judge, the Prosecutor, the Reporter and the Judge's thug
I need more of this. I slurp it all so fast its not even funny.
RedHead girl ( ex-wife in his past life ) will always stay sus to me, sorry. I don't wike her. At all.
BUT AKDNKSJSKSJS. love this little group of people trying to make the world a better place. Baes.
First of all, how dare they be this way?
Second of all, what is this audacity?
Thirdly, I am a TJ simp so what I say might be biased but — who the fuck cares.
OKAY.
No, I don't like Jo. People complain about TJ being obsessive and then there's this guy. Had sex with Ian one time and began obsessing over him. Proclaimed them just friends and continued to be obsessed. Told himself it wasn't healthy — continued to be unhealthy. The difference between TJ and Jo is simple, TJ is a criminal and Jo isn't. Alas, both of them are equally obsessed and that's the TEA.
Now I move on to Ian. Which kinda threw me on a loop at some point. I like him. But I think he's playing games and hurting people in the process. First, he toys with TJ. Says that he's selfish and stuff. Then, he does something unexpected and pushes TJ away. Okay. Fine. BUT THEN, he acts all wounded when TJ abandons him and scratch record a few more panels and he's getting fucked by Jo. Like. Uhm. What are your FEELINGS, my boy?! And don't get it wrong, I also think he toys with Jo's emotions. Giving and taking. Like a person playing tug-of-war with a dog.
And TJ can do nothing wrong. Really.
KIDDING.
Okay. He's clearly fucked up. I cannot deny it. Shady past, instead of getting better, he got worst. Yes, he's a criminal but I cannot stop thinking about the whole "do you know how many shit I've put up with?" And the "As long as you're here, nothing will happen to Ian" parts. The first, he said himself. The second, his underling did. Which brings me to the next questions : what is his purpose? Is it to protect Ian? What drives him?
( and, honestly, I'm hollering — Jason was the one that told him that love would turn everything he's built to ashes and so, as I understand, he began to distance himself. And now, look at him, asking Jason to wake up and tell him differently. I mean, I'm not excusing him, but it's clear he let himself be influenced from a VERY young age and now he's reaping what he sown )
ALAS, I don't understand how people can say TJ and Ian don't have chemistry.
They clearly have a past together. A past not only full of happiness, not at all actually, but shared trauma. Call it TJ's obsession ( Ian's leg wound ), call it Ian's necessity to be there for TJ — they are so attached at the hip that if one of them is nearby, the othet forgets the rest of the world and focuses solely on the other.
Even the sex between them is different than other's.
The way they grip at each other, how they react and what they say. To end with the marks TJ was no longer hesitant to put on Ian.
AM I READING TOO MUCH INTO THIS?! Maybe.
But. I like it.
I like their chemistry. And while I do think it's an unhealthy relationship, I like it ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ with how they are, what they have done, how they are — I expected nothing else.
Jo? I have my doubts. I don't like him. But. I'm eager to see where the story goes with him. I haven't forgotten that gun he took back from his homeplace and I do think it's not the last we see of that gun. So. I'm guessing Jo vs. TJ at some point?
I dunno, I dunno.
I'm too invested now. And I'm all here for TJ. Sorry. Not sorry.
I’m confused on this logic? You said you like TJ and not Jo. Yet TJ is same one who’s trying to put Ian in life he DOESN’T want. And at least Jo know he may be obsessed and is making attempts to control it. Nobody cares who you root for but that makes no sense how you talk about one, but the other you favor so much is the same thing with extra baggage.
And I'm confused on your logic. Same cake, different slice ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
If you read my post correctly, the only way I compared them was on their obsession. That's it. That's that.
I don't think TJ and Jo are similar in more than that.
I did say that TJ/Ian were unhealthy ... or did you also skip that part?
I dunno what point you're trying to make here. Are you here to chastise me for the character I like and the one I don't? Damn , don't I feel special ♡
And you clearly can’t comprehend mines. I said IDC who you root for. But you’re argument sounds hypocritical and plain stupid.
And now you are shooting wanna-be insults at me. Damn. I'm so wounded. Whatever will I do now that a complete stranger has called me an idiot?
Oh, no. Wait. I will read better.
Oh, yes.
You called my ARGUMENT hypocritical and stupid. My bad. I should have read better before feeling so offended.
( a word of advice : you should do the same thing too ... read before writing ♡ )
And just as a forewarning : I am not replying to you anymore. I just answered you to raise your blood pressure and have fun. The moment you are willing to talk about the plot and characters without being so childish, lemme know ♡
I also found the whole story interesting, recently everything new (ongoing kind of new) I found was a wannabe tragedy, shit plot but they'll fall in "love", and a whole "extremely completed plot" which in reality just useless info stretching the chapters.
So I'm also really interested in what will happen next. I feel that I trust the author to take it any direction, TJ, Jo or maybe someone else.
You gave me a slightly different perspective on TJ,(more likable, ig)(or was it hearing my thoughts from another person, who liked TJs candidature more).
Anyway, can't wait for season two
Thank you
Lol girl shut up, whole bunch of nothing
yUP! And, I mean, there's nothing wrong with following a trope that's successful, but when we get different stories, like this one, some people don't like it for that exact same reason. I guess it's just a matter of perspective!
And this story falls in that spectrum. At this point, we really don't know where it's going and I think that's part of its charm. So, agree with ya!
( I also believe the author has a lot of doors to choose from, so let's cross our fingers and do our bets because I don't see an easy future ahead lol )
Pleased to read I could give you a different opinion on TJ, but let's see if this boy helps me build a case for him in the future lol ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
TJ doesn't want to protect Ian. He just wants to possess him and drag him into the mud so he can never have a happy clean life if it means he can't be part of it. He literally orchestrated it so Ian would go to jail and be traumatized.
Ian is also a manipulative and flighty asshole who is keeping TJ and Jo on a leash without cutting any of them loose.
Now, TJ is hot as hell and his physical chemistry with Ian is electric. Definitely can't deny that. But I think it would be more of a 'yaoi cliche' to allow TJ to get off scott free. Yawn. There is a reckoning coming within the gang and it is coming for him. Now it's a matter of is he still enough of a selfish piece of shit to drag Ian down with him.
