MaintainingMama

I still don't know where Jun's head/heart is at, so I hope we get a final answer next week. I'm going on record and saying the episodes are too short. I need more. Especially more Thame and Po together, just talking softly and gently to each other with Thame looking at Po with those eyes. I would literally listen to just William speaking at the end of the day, his voice is so soft and gentle to my ears.

You don't have to apologize, just LEAVE ME ALONE. You are clearly unwell, as your responses seem to be written by 2 different people. Move on please.

Less ups and downs, performance wise, for me, this week. I liked the clothing store scene, where Style is in true form, just trying to get a rise out of Fadel. I do have questions, because how in the WORLD did Keen know exactly where they were? Unless he had tracking on them, it was impossible. It would have been more believable if he came for them at the beach because Mother knew about the beach house all this time, then him coming into a store they stopped at on the random whim of Style longing for his own clothing.
But okay, Style getting shot helps illustrate that Fadel still cares for him.
I did like that whole confrontation between them all with the guns. It was well done by all. I also LOVED the scene with Kant and Style, teasing each other in true bestie form. I totally thought Bison or even better Fadel would walk in on the staring scene and flip out leading to a conversation that would reconcile them, but the way it was done was fun as well. I will say, I did not like the kiss between Fadel and Style. The angle was weird, Dunk's eyes kept opening, their mouths weren't centered, Dunk's hand on Joong's neck once again. It looked awkward and not genuine like Bison and Kant's kiss in the water. And I know Joong and Dunk can kiss, so that seems like a director problem.
Speaking of being in the water, I appreciated that acknowledged that Kant's trauma with the ocean is a real thing and something that needs to be address. And I loved that he stopped them from continuing "exposing" him when he knew he had reached his limit. But then they ruined all of that but having them play in the water. Like what? He started having flashbacks to the crash he wasn't even calf deep, but with just one hand held walk with the boyfriend, he could play frisbee in the ocean riding on someone's back where because they are in the sea, that person could easily fall and drop him into the water.
And while I like the boat scene to an extent, Kant wasn't able to be on a boat just days before, but now he is fine to ride into the middle of the ocean like it was nothing.
I'm sort of thinking the ending boat scene means something for next week, maybe. But it seemed like a random scene thrown in to show that they are all back together and next week they are going to be unhappy again.
Lastly, I've suspected Mother of being who killed Bison and Fadel's parents to begin with, although the why and the how are still a mystery. I now think she also killed Fadel's boyfriend, using the hitman they hired '2 years ago". I am really anxious to hear her whole story, why she seems obsessed with them, how she got to even be in charge of them, did all three not have family to take them in? I also want to know why Keen seems to hate Bison and Fadel so much outside of them just being favored over him. I get him being jealous, but he grew up with them, so why don't they consider each other brothers? And how did Keen go from being jealous to murderous?
I'm looking forward to next week, cause I think we will get some answers...hopefully.

Like I said, unless you are going to apologize for your original comment, please leave me alone. There is literally nothing else to discuss.

Someone else must have written this reply because it is much more polite. I agree that both Joong and Dunk have improved in their acting ability. However, as an actor, and as someone who has had trouble in the past at crying on camera, I expressed that I was disappointed in Dunk's performance in that particular scene. I was clear when I said that out side of that one scene, he was funny. And I wasn't the only one who expressed that his crying in that scene was absolutely horrible. But you said that my mouth was full of poison. I don't want to celebrate their progress and I am going to compare his past performance to his current one, because as you said acting is a journey and on any journey, especially if it is your job and a craft, one should improve on said journey. I simply noted that he did not improve and that as his fan, I was disappointed. Am I leaving space for him to grow, absolutely, but I can express my disappointment. I will continue to watch him and Joong, but that scene and honestly in some others, it makes enjoying the story hard, which is literally his job, to make me and other enjoy the story. If you are, great, however, it doesn't give you the right to tell me my mouth is full of poison because I am not and expressed myself thusly. Now, I have spoken my peace and unless you are going to apologize for your rude comment, please get off my post and leave me alone.

Thank you! This is the second comment under a post I have made, where someone says something absolutely WILD in defense of a show or people who don't know they exist.

I literally just said that their acting has been hit or miss for me. I love Joong and Dunk. I actually have liked all their series, when others said they weren't good. But I am not so blinded by my love for them both as actors and as a ship to not see the flaws in a series or in their acting. You coming to their defense so strongly is a great indicator that views and comments are only saying that people are watching for the ship and not the actual content. Which is kind of crazy, like leaving a comment saying my mouth is full of poison. That is nuts! Like you absolutely do not have to like my comment. But you are free to keep scrolling. And if it ruins your day, then I need you to go seek mental health help, because no tv show, or ship/actors should elicit the need to speak badly to complete strangers on the internet. I come on here to find people who enjoy the same kind of shows I like, to maybe read differing opinions to what I have, to gain a better perspective and sometimes to share my thoughts. You don't have to comment, I often ignore comments that I don't agree with. But I would never read your glowing review of this series or Joong and Dunk's performance and say you were crazy.
I will, however, say you are crazy for what you said to me. Get help, it is NEVER that serious.

One thing about First and Khao, they are going to deliver a scene with excellent acting. Poor Dunk couldn't cry a sing tear in his scene, so Khao said, let me show you how to do it, I'll cry for me and for you. When he burst out into tears after Kant said, " I love you with my whole being" and Bison begged him to not be lying and tricking him again....man, chef's kiss! This was what I wanted last episode.
As for Joong and Dunk's scenes. It was hit or miss for me. Style flirting with Fadel in the hotel was funny as heck. As I said, last time, I think that car scene was less about Style being turned on and more about him realizing that although Fadel is mad at him, he doesn't want to kill him and he still loves him. He is so confident he will be able to win back Fadel, as long as he did what he did last time and be persistent in his showing of his love for Fadel, in true Style form.
I will say, I am disappointed in Dunk's performance when he was supposed to cry. I just didn't believe his feeling, cause nothing in his face indicated a different side of Style. A scared Style who was remorseful that what he did led to that point. It wasn't just the fact that he couldn't cry, it was that it looked like he was constipated trying to squeeze out a few tears.
To compare it again, during the beach scene with Bison and Kant, when Kant told him he loved him and called him Penguin over and over again, Bison/Khao's eyes turned red. You could see he was trying to hold back tears and he did but then he walked off to not cry in front of Kant. That was what the scene called for. For Bison to be almost in tears, to be weakening his resolve to stay mad at Kant, but to not cry because he was still angry, because he couldn't trust Kant's words just yet. And Khao delivered that. It was amazing, go back and watch it. One second his eyes are white and filled with anger and the next moment, during the scene, while Kant/First is talking, they do a close up of Khao's face and his eyes turn red and he goes from angry to sad and scared. All in his eyes and face.
Now do I expect all actors to be able to do that, no, of course not. Not everyone is going to have that level of acting skill and that is okay. I don't expect that from either Joong or Dunk, but I do kind of expect him to at least get a little better, at least at crying. I usually enjoy both actors, so I'm not necessarily saying that Dunk is a bad actor. Just that he hasn't improved and that is disappointing.
Oh well. The only other thing I'm iffy on, is what is the deal with the couple in the woods? Why did they try and attack Fadel and Style, what was the motive for that whole wedding/dinner/dancing only to try and hurt them?

I think William and Est are doing amazing jobs. Honestly, I think they are all doing really well, considering they are not actors by trade. And while I am mainly talking about the rest of Lykn but I can also see where both William and Est can improve. But based on their already amazing performance, I know that they will only get better.

This show just proved that as long as the writing and directing are top quality, having not amazing actors doesn't kill the show.
Love Lykn in this, but is obvious at times that acting is not their strong suit. Especially my boo, Lego. Love him to death, but I'm not sure what they are doing with his character. I get he is the maknae of the group, but they way they have him acting is weird to me. What was the pizza thing? It didn't seem like a product placement, but they made sure to show us him moving the pizza slowly to the center...I'm not sure if these are choices he is making based on his character or direction, but I'll let it go because gah they gave us everything else.
I'll start with them pairing Sammy and Drake as a couple. While my heart is set on Yacht and Sammy as a couple, I also love to see Drake with someone who can match his energy and Sammy does it well.
Nut is now my bias in Lykn when I thought it was Lego...I mean it's kind of a tie...but all his little smirks in this episode is definitely convincing me he is my bias. 😂 I am not sure what Jun's agenda is, I cannot tell if he just likes Po or is he just the mischief maker of the group. Either way, I'm here for all of it.
Lastly, I go back to my point of good writing and directing are the heart of any show and no matter the talented actor behind it, if those two elements aren't there, the series will suck. i.e. the last two OffGun series.
Thame and Po walking each other back and forth, unwilling to let each other go because they just want to be with each other. Gah! I cannot! My favorite thing about this series is all of the opportunities they give Thame and Po to work on their romance/love story. This is the only series out side of the friends to lovers plots that shows us how real dating and romance takes place. It's lots of talking and getting to know each other. It's quiet, simple moments that add up to big feelings in the end. I am living for the way they are building up to the big confession and eventual getting together. Po's shy boy behavior mixed with Thame's soft voice and stars in his eyes, seriously how am I going to wait a week to see what happens next! I have a feeling this show is going to go into my comfort BLs category.

I enjoyed this series way more than I expected to. The ML and the side couple were all great. The female characters were all badass and amazing in individual ways, which I am definitely hear for. Porsche and Arm being a lovely addition to the story was also fun.
Now did I love the last episode, not really. I needed them to explain where he was and why he was gone so long with out contacting Junior. How long after he was shot did he remain a panther before turning back to being a human.
Why did no one kick up a fuss at 2 teenagers just leaving school and working where ever?
Why didn't the side ship ever officially get together after all those years and what were they to each other in all that time?
Now, I'm not going to fuss about the ridiculous last scene where Sun/Ben is in a hoodie at the North Pole sweating. Yes, I noticed, but he's adorable and they were cute together in their last scene.
I enjoyed this show and definitely feel it needs more attention from other BL fans.

My goodness, I am in love with William's voice, both his speaking and singing voice. Every time he speaks, it distracts me from the story and I have to rewind. 😂😂Then they play the new OST and immediately running to Spotify to find the song.
I do have concerns though...why can't Po cross the street? And it's not like our buddy from Wandee Gooday with trauma and such. He literally seems to forget how to walk when the cross walk sound goes off and that is worrisome. I hope they explain, cause I don't know what is actually happening there.
I want to give a shout out Nut and his acting. His side eyes, teasing looks and never ending smirks are making this character stand out in a fun way. I know all of them are new to this, and it's evident, but I also think they are doing an amazing job considering this is their first role and their real job is singing and dancing.
Side note- anyone find the shot they did for Nano/Lego crying was weird? They did this weird cut away, then zoomed in on his crouch and lingered....it wasn't until I saw the tear fall (barely) and they finally showed his face crying that I was like oh, this was a weird way to show he was upset and crying. I just think it was a poor decision by the director and editor for leaving that in. Lego did great.

I assure you, I am watching the same show. I just don't agree with you that the way it happened was the best way to do that scene. I am not a fan of character being able to explain a misunderstanding or being able to apologize for bad behavior but then chosing to not actually do it. Kant simply hqd to say the words, 'I was forced by the police chief against my will, he threatened my brother' and the rest of the scene would have made my more sense, in my opinion. In my opinion, it would have been great if Kant had at least tried to convey how he felt to Bison, it would have been more impactful in the moment. While I don't think that is a trope, I don't mind tropes, they exist for a reason. But my not minding tropes does not make me simplistic or not able to see 'deep' meaning in stories.
As for Style getting turned on by danger, we will have to agree to disagree. In none of those scenes did I see Style liking danger. I think he got turned on by the person qnd the environment. And my point is that during the car ride, at no point did it seem he was turned on. Had he done something to indicate he was turned on, I wouldn't have mentioned my disagreement on that take. He didn't like lick his lips, grab is crouch or even given Fadel a suggestive glance. Nor did he say, 'You know, you are really hot right now'. All things, that for me, would have made it clear that he was turned on. To me, in that moment, I think he figured out, that at least as far as he was concerned Fadel was all bark and no bite and that made him happy. Because that means he has a chance to make up with Fadel.
The reason I said Keen needed to take a video or record their conversation was to prove to Mother he was right. Mother does not like or value him. Why would he kill to strangers, again In Public. It made zero sense for him to pull out his gun when he did. Keen being there made sense, him aiming a gun at them did not, again, in my opinion.
While you have tried to suggest that I am wrong and simplistic in my opinion by stating that others saw it that way as well, for me does nothing to change my mind. The same way that others agree with me and see my points as well.
Finally, as I won't be responding again to you, I won't reflect on defensiveness, as most people on here have never spoken to me the way you have. I also would never tell someone that they would ' like a simpler style' based on me simply not agreeing with their take on a series. You did a whole bunch of assuming, and I am basing that on how many times you stated you assumed varies points. You know what they say about assuming, right? I don't assume anything. And while I am able to seen context clues with in most works, my entire point in my original post was that I didn't feel their context clues were well done. You do not have to agree, you have that right. Same as I have the right to want a better series based on who is involved in this project. If you are happy, then I am happy for you. But I would never tell someone I do not know that they are simplistic, must like tropes and aren't understanding the work. I understand, I just don't agree. If I seem defensive, it was because your word choice was offensive.

So I do not have a simplistic view of emotional journeys, nor do I misunderstand human emotions. Got 2 degrees in human emotions or better stated, psychology and counseling. So I get people and their feelings as well as their traumas. The point of my post was to express, how I felt that the direction, acting, production, and most importantly the writing could have done a much better job of expressing those emotions. I absolutely understand fight, flight, freeze or fawn. Kant didn't do any of these on the boat. I would have appreciated the scene more if he had frozen, refusing to get off the boat juxtaposed to flashbacks of his trauma with his parents death in the water. That would have made better sense. He literally starts to explain and then stops and says nothing. But let's not forget that we are watching a romance. One that, so far, has had very little romance in it. You mentioned Kant the bowling alley break in date and all that Kant has done to get the information. The writing and directing has done very little to show Kant feeling guilty about what he has to do. Do they show some, absolutely, contrary to your statement that I wasn't paying attention, I am watching, I am in fact enjoying the series. I literally state that I was let down by this particular episode because I could see where it could have been so much better, especially based on what they have already shown us, specifically last week, which was an episode I loved for the most part.
I did not misunderstand why Keen was there, it was, in my opinion, a poorly written scene that would have been better and made better sense if done the way I suggested (not that I think my suggestion is the best, but it fits better based on what the HAVE said about Keen, his character and his agenda) than to have him aim into a crowd of people to maybe hit two people who are also armed and obviously better at shooting in a place that has cameras everywhere without a mask or anything to hid his identity. Yes, I agree he was there to confirm they were dating, which is why I suggested it would have been a better scene if he had recorded the bathroom conversation between Fadel and Style and take it back to Mother. And again, I don't want to assume that much in a story that could have used a few words or actions to show me his intentions.
As for Style being turned on, again that wasn't what I felt was displayed in the acting or the writing, at least not clearly. Style and Fadel get off on public sex, that is something they have shown before. And they even spoke about it clearly, so it isn't something I have to assume. At no point does Style ever indicate that he likes Fadel being scary and murder-y. Again, I shouldn't have to guess what a story is trying to tell me. At least not in this type of drama. This isn't some art piece where the story is open for interpretation. It's a BL based off of a Shakespeare play. Despite your statement, this story is really not that deep. Could it have some deep moments sure, but like every other drama consumed for entertainment, how these characters are feeling should be clearly displayed through direction, acting, writing/dialogue and I didn't get that from Style in the car. Maybe I'll be proven wrong next week, if they say so, but for now, I don't see it.
As for Fadel's arm, they said it was broken, it's in a cast and a sling. Either way, he could not have lifted a grown unconscious man with his freshly injured arm, let alone done it in a way to get past all those police or even passerby's in a hospital.

Lastly, I'm going to assume you meant no offense, but you can state your opinion without insulting people. In both my review as well as this reply I have almost exclusively used "I" statements. I scroll through countless comments and read opinions and then sometimes I create my own like this to offer my opinion. I am also open to differing opinions, which is why I scroll and read before I post my thoughts. I don't, however, go on anyone's post and tell them they are "simplistic" and "misunderstanding" the story as if to say I'm too stupid to understand this deep story. Again, even if I find a differing opinion than my own, to the point that I need to comment, I exclusively use "I" statements and I never tell someone they are wrong for their opinion. I may say I disagree and then elaborate with details, but I'm not going out of my way to be disrespectful to the people I engage with on this website. You could have shared all of your thoughts as you did above without calling into question my intelligence, which essentially what you did. A bit of unsolicited advice, think carefully before you post a comment. You may love this show, and that is your right, but you don't have a right to try and make someone feel bad because you don't agree with what they wrote. I didn't tear this show down, I didn't disparage what they was created. I offered a criticism based on my expectation of any show, but especially a show done by GMMTV and with actors who I think are amazing. I wanted a better show, was disappointed, wrote about it and what could have made it better, that is all. Doesn't make me stupid or simple minded. In fact, I'll argue it makes me intelligent because I don't just like a show because of who is in it or how hot the guys are. But that is just me.

Gross statement. You obviously are biased and therefore impossible to speak to about.... well literally anything. Best of luck. Hope you broaden your mindset as it seems your current mindset prevents you from enjoy, understanding and appreciating the world and all it brings to art. Please refrain from further commenting.

This was a disappointing episode for me. So much wasted potential after the great episode last week was.
So many parts didn't make sense or could have just been soooo much better.
Why was Keen at the bowling ally to kill Bison and/or Fadel when it would better serve his goals to video/audio tape that convo in the bathroom as well as them in the bowling alley to then take back to Crazy Mama?
What was the purpose of Fadel and Bison's plan to take one singular day to "make them love us and then kill them" only to give up and reveal the plan just cause Bison was hurt and then not do a single thing to Style even though now Style knows the jig is up. Why didn't Style turn right around after Fadel told him basically, I know and I'm planning on killing you and go tell Kant? You mean to tell me , he couldn't figure out that Fadel knew and that Kant needed to know before Bison woke up WHEN Fadel told him but had to wait until much later.
Bison heard how heartbroken Kant was and that, at the very least, should have given him pause on the whole kill Kant because he betrayed me goal. But okay, I'll allow for rage and being stabbed and running from the police make you not think clearly. But what about on the boat. He had all that time to think and instead, he just got super pissed and stopped thinking?! Speaking of not thinking, Kant wakes up and sees that he has been found out and instead of speed confessing, or doing literally anything that would at least make Bison slow down and listen, he just says let's get to dry land. I also took into account his fear of the water. But once Bison started screaming jump off the boat, him explaining how he was forced by the police and threatened with his future as well as the future of his brother, a short and easy sentence that at minimum would have had a regular person at least ask for elaboration, stalling your time in the sea you don't want to be in and possibly getting you onto dry land. But nope, just lots of feet shots no one asked for. And a Bison who was stunned that Kant did the thing he was told to do because a gun was pointed at him...
Then you have the most stupid scene. Fadel with a freshly broken arm single handedly not only knocking out Style, but then some how, again literally single handedly, getting a lifeless body of a grown man with out any help and surrounded by police, out of the hospital undetected. Then striping him bare and some how propping him up on a swimming board so that his lifeless body would just naturally sit up straight until he woke up.
Like WHAT?!
But okay, baring that what upset me the most was all the wasted potential to redeem these scenes and these couples.
The one thing I wondered was how were they going to make us, the audience, believe that these two couple will love each other in the end, an ending I'm assuming at this point, but I figured that was the outcome of this show. It's a pretty hard task, as they have set these characters relationships to be impossible to work out. First because Fadel and Bison are literal murderers. Do they do it for the good of man, so Mama says, but who knows at this point she could have her own agenda that hasn't been reveal yet. But either way, a murderer is a murderer. We can act like Kant's past is equally as bad, in fact Style even said so this episode, but stealing cars and multiple homicides are absolutely not the same level of crime. So we, the audience, have to suspend belief that Kant and Style fall in love with two hitmen, okay, I watched the trailer, I know what I signed up for, but I expected (I know foolish at this point) the writers to help me believe that. We, the audience, also have to believe that both Fadel and Bison experience betrayal from two people they finally allowed themselves to love for the first time and some how forgive them. Not impossible to do, again, I know what I signed up for and apparently next week, all is forgiven. So today's episode should have helped me see how that can even remotely be possible next week.
I will admit that one thing almost helped, which was First's phenomenal acting in the hospital psuedo-confessing. It was a very touching and emotional scene, that could have literally been made even better by maybe showing Bison breaking down when Kant left the room. Or when he had to drug him to get him out of the hospital. I just needed to see more of Bison's struggle with his emotions, especially after he heard Kant's confession. Not necessarily forgiving Kant right away, but some confusion about what to do, conflicted about his feeling for Kant but also his feeling of betrayal and guilt for dragging Fadel into this mess.
I think the boat scene would have been a million percent better, if as Bison is demanding Kant jump off, they had had Kant confessing, begging for forgiveness, and most importantly, declaring his love for Bison. Imagine how much better that scene would have been, if Kant was walking slowly toward the edge, confessing his love for Bison the whole way, crying, begging for forgiveness as well as those scenes of his parent's death and fear of the ocean, juxtaposed with Bison breaking down, screaming, threatening with the gun. Both of them warring with their feeling, but overall, you have Kant letting Bison know that even though it is ending like that, he needed Bison to know that he loved him. That way, when Kant jumps and immediately disappears in the water and Bison is alarmed and terrified right away, us the audience understand why. His immediate regret would have so much more sense.
Same with Fadel and Style. Style should have confessed the whole thing as well. Lying and saying he didn't know why Kant did this made no sense. He should have said, man, I know that what we did was wrong, but Kant was forced by the chief and he dragged me in with out telling me. I didn't know who you were or what you did before, I hit on you for fun at first but by the time I found out the real plan, I was already in love with you. Once again, they needed to show Style being all the way serious about Fadel, for me to believe that he loved and cared for Fadel. That he loved Fadel enough to not be afraid of him, even with him pointing a gun at him. No begging for his life, just him begging Fadel for forgiveness.
I keep seeing people say Style was turned on by Fadel and his gun, but I don't think so. I think after Fadel didn't kill him then and there, he knew that Fadel was never going to kill him and that Fadel loved him too much to do it. I think that was smug Style, not turned on Style.
The last stupid thing is Fadel holding a gun to Style's head, while driving in an open vehicle while the drive down a highway, surrounded by a million cars/witnesses. Like who wrote that scene.
Ah the wasted potential for this series as well as for these actors. Disappointed.

I loved My Old Fashioned Cupcake although, I don't feel like it is on the same level as this. I felt it could have been longer and told more of their story, it left me wanting a lot more. And while I wanted more with this series as well it was more due to the fact that it was so good, I didn't want it to end. And how I can even possibly compare this show with the ones I listed is simple. These are my favorite Thai and Taiwanese BL's based on the same criteria I would use for any show/series I watch. I compared them based on cinematography, direction, acting, story/plot, writing, as well as the OST/music used in the series. I didn't have any questions when they were over, I felt moved by their human experiences while the story unfolded. I was stunned by the visuals on the screen. The music wasn't a distraction but rather an enhancement during the experience of watching.
While I love JBL, I don't think one country over another is any better than the other, so I feel comfortable comparing the shows I mentioned with this one simply based on the fact that they are my favorites and now this one has become a favorite. This is simply my opinion.

Thank you for letting me know

This was the best JBL to date for me. And I mean of all time. It was heartbreaking and achingly beautiful. The cinematography was amazing, the soundtrack the acting and directing. Just when my only complaint was the pathetic weak lipped Japanese kissing, here comes episode 11 with a passionate display of their love for one another.
Zero notes. This is going in my top ten list of best BLs of all time. It might seriously go under ITSAY and MODC (only to half way ep.9, we don't acknowledge the rest) as my favorites.
This was a wonderful example of "every body has a story and you never know what someone is going through". What Hirakawa went through all by himself even with Minase around was traumaing. He endured so much, more than any human being should have to. And watching Minastize wanting to do something to fix it but being powerless because of his age, his socioeconomic status, his parents as well as his own real life trauma was just as traumatizing.
I loved that we go to see them grow up and see each stage of their relationship. Am I sad that in the end, they couldn't come out, they had to hid what they are to each other, even from the people who are in their lives, absolutely. This is also super realistic. Especially when you consider how hard they both worked to get "normal" lives. Minase choosing a boring day job to please the mother who was barely in his life, even into adulthood, just so he could have a stable life. He surrounded himself with friends, that he never seemed to actually like, just so he wasn't alone. And he kept them into adult. That is trauma. Abandoned by both parents, then by his one true person. Just gah.
Don't get me started on my baby Hirakawa. The fact that he never told his mother, not even after his dad passed away, simply because his mother "started over". I cannot. And watching his mother say, " A mother knows" while looking at his face beat bloody broke my heart and pissed me off all at the same time. A mother does know, but she wasn't a mother, cause what kind of mother abandons her child, never visiting him in his home to make sure he is doing okay, nor having him visit her. The fact that she had to wait for her new husband to leave town to invite her son into her is just GAH!!!! I do wish they had gone more into why that was, but also screw her. Especially watching her fawn all over the new baby and protect her. I cannot.
Anyway, I loved it. It was dang near perfect. And the way they ended it, they could continue on. I would love a coming out episode, and finally a getting married episode. Cause they deserve to live in their truth and to get their happily ever after.

This episode! First, how is Gun resisting all that rizz that Yotha is throwing at him, cause I literally cannot and he isn't even directing it at me. Like I would be a puddle on the ground every time he talked. Also, Gun is slow cause Yotha could not be clearer about what he wants. Second, that cliffhanger. I need to see the fight that happens, cause when Yotha stood up, he was definitely about that business. And lastly, the preview for next week! Gun admits to himself that he likes Yotha and Yotha finds out! Already!? How am I supposed to wait until next week!?
