I love He Tian and Mo, don't get me wrong —
But I'd love to see more of Jian Yi and Zhen Xi ╥﹏╥
We have gotten so much He Tian and Mo content already, but Jian Yi and Zhen Xi's story got lost somewhere and we haven't even gotten a continuation of it. I wanna see THEM kiss too. And have silly, romantic adventures of their own.
Just a thought. A whisper.
I started reading this for them years ago — I just miss them ┗( T﹏T )┛
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.
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 )
