So I spoke to a friend regarding a fanfic idea for Kp that popped up, like where Kinn and Porsche be feral for each other. I said Porsche needed to be a bit harsher in forgiving Kinn, so I wanted to write a fix-it of sorts. Also I mentioned how Apo reminds me of Porsche from ep 1 to 3, all happy and giggly. My friend said that mafia ruined Porsche 😭😭😭 like my man's lost his sanity and now he's got issues, like real issues. Plus I hate how he sold Pete out for information to Vegas knowing his mental state. THIS BECOMES A FULL ON RANT ABOUT CHARACTER INCONSISTENCY FROM HERE SO SPOILER ALERT: I know I've said this before but even if he'd had good intentions to protect Pete (no doubt he would have) but Pete's mental state was so fragile, so if he was actually a good friend, he'd straight up threaten Vegas with a knife to stay tf away from his friend. Thats the only thing about him Ill never forgive, although he was my favorite character till episode 12.
I still don't like Kinn. I don't know why, but he legit got away with having drugged makeout with Porsche, (he apologized though so yeah,) but not just that, he degraded him so brutally in episode 7, and threw him in a DUNGEON, it'd have made him much more likeable if he'd let Porsche in and they'd planned it all together like a giant F U to Vegas and that yucky Tawan. Personally his character is very inconsistent (better than it was in the book, but inconsistent just the same). Also, big's death made my blood boil, like they be MAKING OUT while man be dead? From here on, the writers were making a mockery out of both Kinn and Porsche. I like Vegas and Pete but they arent my type still, Vegas seriously be a well rounded character, as for Pete..... he's okay. He was hot in episode 3 while kicking the crap out of that guy, but he just became a shell of who he was after meeting Vegas (maybe he didn't, its just my own opinion), that Vegas broke Pete and he rebuilded him to be just for Vegas. Come to think of it, I think the dynamic applies to both couples, both ruined by the people who claim to love them the most. Porsche is broken, (no matter how the writers flipped him after episode 10, I will NOT accept any other explanation for his extreme switch in character in the last four episodes). His personality trait is supposed to be loyalty. Its who he is, and all his relationships are MEANT to be loyal, whether to Kinn, to Chay, to Pete, or even to Big. I think the writers made his character inconsistent as hell too, because how tf can he live for Chay for 23 years, and suddenly become so careless with his safety with the mafia? How tf is he so loyal to Kinn that he stays with the man whose father maybe his own father's killer, but he sells out his fRiEnD the first chance he gets? I really hated him in the last 4 episodes, I skipped them because up till then, he was the only reason I watched the show, and when his character became so OUT of character, I couldn't take it anymore. I spoiled myself through clips and mdl reviews and even now I only rewatch the first 8 episodes because everything went out weird from there. Hell even fanfic writers are more consistent with the character sketch. The BIGGEST problem I have with the show is HOW DID VEGAS GET AWAY WITH DRUGGING PORSCHE SO BADLY? NO CONSEQUENCES AT ALL? LIKE IT WAS IMPLIED THAT KINNPORSCHE BOTH FOUND OUT BUT IT WASN'T EVEN BROUGHT UP LATER?? LIKE WTAF? Kinn is even more inconsistent than Porsche. Like man goes from choking his bodyguard to drug kissing him to drugged making out to PUNISHING him for it to also taking a bullet for him to ALSO FUCKING DEGRADE him like that? Plus he doubts him and throws him into a dungeon (plan or no plan, he clearly didn't trust Porsche) AFTER taking the damned bullet? How come he never questioned Vegas for drugging Porsche? I mean, all his rant about Porsche not trusting Vegas, but dude, where is your proof? I'm not a scriptwriter, but there are so MANY so many plot holes in this series. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but in all honesty, the script was the least interesting part of the show. The soundtrack? 10 by 10, production? 100000 by 10, acting? Infinity by 10. And finally... plot? 5 by 10. Solid 5. Like the first 7 episodes had potential. Ep 8 was a nice filler, but ep 9 to 13? Not even the pool scene could save it for me. Ep 14 was alright, I guess, but Porsche putting Che's safety in question makes me go like wtf? He really can't see anyone other than Kinn now, and its such a contrast from his character in the beginning of the series, when he was a sassy buttkicking bartender who could hold his own against a mafia lord to a stereotypical bottom who simply exists for the top. I'm sorry, its a long rant, but I simply had to say it. I hope they redeem Porsche to Pete in season 2, and Kinn too. Vegas got his redumption (to some extent), but the same cannot be said for the leads. I'm overall more impressed with the ffs (especially Mimi's) online than the actual canon however the characterization is, at least it STAYS.
P.S. Porsche's lack of trust in Kinn is harsh (ep 13), but I think its a mirror of what Kinn did to him in eps 9 and 10. It broke him and he subconsciously did the same. So, in a way it's deserved and I don't blame him for it. They still ruined my favorite character though and I'll never forgive them for it. .... I'm speechless.
I was rewatching ep 13 today and it sort of hit me that Kinn and Porsche kinda rubbed off on each other... like Kinn became softer and happier while Porsche became harder and his personality felt heavier and dampened as compared to how he was in the girst half of show...
I was kinda watching old Kp fmvs, ya know, from the filmania version, and i couldn't help noticing they made Kinn hotter in the new version and Porsche hotter in the old version. I adore Kinn's glowup but i wish they'd kept Porsche's PHYSICAL character same... he was so hawt..
I said Porsche needed to be a bit harsher in forgiving Kinn, so I wanted to write a fix-it of sorts.

Hope he gets better soon.
I said what I said. Now fight me.
Turns out it was pointless
