If I were Ming's therapist, I'd tell him that holding on to anger (though he's not even entitled to it because he was the one who made the dick move on Dissaya) is like drinking poison and expecting someone else to die for it.
Anyone who wants to talk now -- if you're having difficulty processing your feelings, I've opened a Google Meet session for you. this is a safe space. I'm ready to listen. Keeping it open for an hour.
But there's a chance for us to catch up again. Not just here in the comments.
As you all know, we had three Post-Episode Conversations via Google Meet over the weekend (one session on Friday after the finale, and two on Saturday).
Because it had been fun sharing our thoughts, feelings and Bady Buddy/BL viewing experiences, some of us agreed that another (set of) Google Meet conversations is needed.
Before I set things up though, I'd like to know what others think of it.
I dont remember if it was ever discussed here, but there is one difficult to explain element in the story, that…
There were talks about it, and was also brought up in one of the Google Meet conversations we had over the weekend.
There were assumptions that the series was a non-homophobic universe where outing men as a couple were a non-issue. And the premise was that Wai exposed them as a couple from feuding faculties - getting back at Pran for not telling him what was going on. (He asked him several times) And although it was up to Pran whether he wanted to tell anyone or not, his reason for not telling Wai was that he did not know whether the latter would be okay with it or not.
And whilst most of us understood Wai's pain, we all agreed he still needed to apologise for it.
Pran was right to apologise for hiding things from his bestfriend because he felt that it was the right thing to do. But he and Pat did not deserve to be "outed" like that.
They will tell people in their own time. But Wai did a dick move there.
Wai was no longer supposed to be involved in the play because he passed on the sound engineering responsibilities to Pran. But he still wanted to stick his nose where it shouldn't be because he had been very suspicious.
At the beginning of 9 where Pran's apology happened, it was assumed that there were more than one Kwan Riam playdate, so he and Wai have not spoken since then. Only after the final curtain call did that conversation happen. Then Wai went on to being a petulant child, until he had to save the day towards the end of the episode.
Not sure if Aof had an explanation to this but you may want to check YouTube Soonviarn's recap on the said episodes (Aof and his gang reacting to and recapping each BBS episode). DOn't know if that bit was explained as I have not fully watched it to date, but some light must have been shed on this question.
If not, I'm here to offer you the tightest virtual hug to make it less shitty. :-)

Or we can stay chatting here. Just that I thought you might want someone to listen to you. :-)

I help whenever I could.

My mum used to tell me that it always takes time and a lot of effort to wrap a rather special present.
For now, whatever pain and loneliness you feel, don't reject them. Feel them as much as you can.
And your MDL-Bad Buddy besties are here for you.
