apathy

boatoat answered some questions about the series and gave non-book readers some missing context: https://youtu.be/dvuCg7fFM4U

if you mean during sex, no there are definitely times where i’m like SLOW DOWN. he’s always just like…slamming in there and the hickies and bites are a lot 😭 im hoping we get slow gentle romantic sex after they reconcile ngl

tbf i have a shit attention span so it doesn’t take much for me to get distracted 😭

i forgot that it’s not uncommon for chinese dramas to dub. its distracting me bad

came here to say the same. they lost me at that tbh

maybe he would have regretted having sex with franz, fair enough. he was drunk, and it was his first time. if i were jun’s friend, i’d probably have stopped him myself. if that had been sorn’s reasoning for stopping jun, i would be totally on board. but it wasn’t lol. it wasn’t out of concern that jun would regret it; it was pure jealousy so was pretty self-serving. i’m not gonna praise him for it, especially since he acts so crazily jealous without any right a bunch of other times.

not even hating on him or anything. i want them to end up together, but a lot of the shit sorn did was selfish, even if his trauma sheds some light on why.

ah when you look at his trauma as more so a betrayal of trust than a fear of being falsely labelled as a predator again his actions make a lot more sense. thank you!

not that it really matters, bcs it’s jun’s right to have explore and have sex with whomever he wants and deal with whatever emotional consequence may come from that, but i do not think jun was going to have sex with most of those people. jun isn’t as promiscuous as sorn makes him out to be. they literally said in the show that blonde guy (piang?) and jun had been talking for months and had only kissed. he and the club guy only kissed in the first place bcs jun was jealous and competing with sorn who was kissing some girl in the club, making out with someone in a club doesn’t mean you’re going to sleep with them. so there’s no guarantee he was gonna sleep with him. sorn’s brother is straight and was pulling away when jun was trying to drunkenly kiss him. jun was also mistaking him for sorn in that moment, no guarantee that hallucination would have lasted long enough to have sex with him even if sorn’s brother was into it. and with jom, i don’t think anything about jun’s behaviour has suggested he was gonna have sex with jom any time soon. he was being comforted by a friend. jom even says “when you’re ready” when jun talks about moving on.

from your list, i think there’s only 2 that he was likely to have sex with. franz since he was looking to try bottoming that night and the girl from the club since he had been drugged.

that’s how i feel too. either that or they get rid of the monarchy all together

maybe im wrong but i don’t think that’s what he meant by that. he calls sorn out for using hia tai as an excuse constantly and in the same vein i think he was saying their whole fwb/teaching him sex thing was also just an excuse— an excuse to sleep him, and he slept with him a lot for someone who doesn’t like him.

yeah that makes sense and is probably what’s going to happen. i’m a bit softhearted when it comes to angst but i really want sorn to earn jun’s forgiveness lolZ i guess we’ll see how it goes

i feel like it would have made more sense for his worry to be that relationships with younger partners don’t lead anywhere bcs they’re fickle/change their minds easily since they’re still figuring shit out. like maybe having his trauma being that got dumped or cheated on by a younger partner after falling deeply in love in the past, plus the added stress of jun being dear to his friend tai 🧐that would better explain why he would be ok with having just sex with jun but not admitting his feelings imo. at the same time, i’ve met plenty of men irl that are illogical af in the romance department so the current storyline while kinda silly isn’t completely improbable imo 😭

I feel like the reconciliation shouldn’t happen until midway ep11 tbh then ep 12 can be couply happy times

that’s what i was thinking too but also don’t care enough about their couple to think too deeply aboutt any of that lol

did they draw his beard on with sharpie wtf was that 😭 sorn deserves this so bad. i just need him to actually sob, messy ugly ass tears on his knees, apologize to jun, tell jun he loves him, and treat jun nicely for the rest of their lives and i’ll forgive him bcs he looks pretty with his hair down

had to pause the ep bcs i could feel my blood pressure rising. sorn has always been an asshole but this is the first time (not counting that mean prank he did ig) that i wanted to fist fight him omg. i haven’t been this mad since yotha and gun. god he’s such a dick. jun confesses to you AGAIN sober and all you do is try to fuck again??? he keeps bringing up jom and acting like a possessive fucking boyfriend but refuses to share his feelings then he’s shook jun is upset??? electric chair!!!

trying to get dicked down 5 mins after waking up from a coma is crazy work 😭 my favourite thing about khanin is he knows what he wants and he wants charan period point blank. and also i was NOT expecting to see booty cheeks from this show. i was missing ramil and paytai a bit, but overall this was a good ep

at yotha’s age, yes i would tbh. i was kissing everybody and anybody, especially if i had been drinking BUT i wouldn’t do that if i were in a talking stage with someone else

i was super pleasantly surprised by this! idk why but i usually don’t click with gmmtv bl but i was absolutely devouring this one. it’s my first time seeing forcebook and perthsanta in action and they’re both super cute. i like how angsty perthsanta’s story was, while forcebook were giving slow burn romance. it was good. unfortunately, im really struggling with the last story but there’s still time for them to grow on me i hope

there’s definitely emotion in their nc scenes imo, especially this one. it’s the desperate obsessiveness, possessiveness, yearning that comes with bottling up their feelings. there was a little slip of tenderness too with jun tying sorn’s hair for him. sorn also initiates kisses every time he wants to re-establish their connection, i’ve noticed. instead of words, it’s one of the ways he expresses himself when he’s feeling unsettled etc. i’m sure we’ll get more tender and romantic nc scenes when they make up eventually tho
