this is so short & yet there is so much here. the most profound thing i've heard in a while, is the old fisherman telling Jun "...the root of all anger is sadness..." *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************thankfully we didn't get more of Jun's lecherous male character's (had quite enough of them & him). this ep showed a different side, a more contrite one, that was capable of some much needed soul-searching. idk if u can call this a midlife crisis as Jun's just 30, but considering he's been living like a hermit for over a decade, maybe it is fitting that he is having a break-down of sorts. **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************watching the flashback to his teens, the reason why he wanted to start writing was interesting. i loved the old fisherman, in-spite of being antisocial & a loner his house was always open to the kids, that didn't have anywhere else to go. it was bittersweet on so many levels. that's why my heart broke when the friends grew distant & Keisuke just bowed-out leaving Nezujii's place, so Jun could still have his safe haven. this drama is sad <(＿ ＿)> *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw idk if Jun was in-love with Keisuke or just cause they were each other's whole world, he felt betrayed that Keisuke fell for someone else (betraying what they had, letting someone else invade their inner sanctum). i donno if Jun was gay, the porno isn't an indicator, one way or the other. if they communicated maybe they would still be friends (but at that age) idk if they had the "tools" to enable that type of conversation. ╯︿╰

everything is just off - does Keisuke exist? why he always disappear when the editor comes for Jun's work? idk something is off & i can't put my finger on what, it's driving me bonkers.{{{(>_<)}}} ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also don't really like the character's in Jun's stories, all the ML's tend to be horney toads - it's kinda off putting`(*>﹏<*)′ as this basically him. maybe cause he hasn't had a gf for ages, he's "starved" ( ˘︹˘ ) but still, it's gross. add to this the way he is treating Keisuke & i wanna hurt the dude. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************know i was the one wondering how weird a bff popping-up out of the blue & then inviting themselves to stay was weird. but the submissive way Keisuke take's Jun's belligerence, let alone serving him at every turn is ugh (►__◄) & his only retort is he wants to read Jun's love-story huh?!? this just keeps getting weirder & weirder.

but dude really thought what he wrote was a love story?!? he's been cooped-up too long in that room (≧∇≦)ﾉ but did like that (in the story) the player got played(¬‿¬). btw i wouldn't call that horror, more creepy or a toxic love story. but sadly he failed the mission. still if it was me, would get angry that it got thrown into the trash bin, like so much garbage.(►__◄) ****************btw only me finding it weird, that a friend (no matter how close or good) one that u haven't been in contact with for over a decade - just pop's-up uninvited & invites himself to stay at ur house /sleep in ur bed. weird ผ(•̀_•́ผ)

happy ending & yet idk, feel it was anticlimactic - yeah am happy at how things turned out. but don't get what was the point to this ep, if Pisaeng didn't do anything to change the future, other then converse with Kawi＼（〇_ｏ）／*************************he had a few option; like moving to the country where his mother was trying to send him. where gays had equal rights & he could marry, have a family (if the lack of rights was the issue) or idk, when he was sick he would go to the doctor's/hospital instead of staying at home & letting Kawi (the one with the weak immune system) nurse him ผ(•̀_•́ผ) but Kawi magically woke-up, meaning what? that the crystal ball was redundant.. idk - like i mentioned this feels meeh.. ************************************again, happy that the mains ended up together, happier even more that Kawi matured enough to cherish Pisaeng & they gonna have a healthy mutually beneficial relationship. but this could be cut down to size & wrapped up in ep 11 （︶^︶） IMHO ********************************************************************************************************************************************the one i loved from start to finish was Pearmai, totally elated she got her happy ending & hopefully with a worthy guy (that will cherish her). Pisaeng, a close 2nd, glad he found happiness in the end, even though that start (⊙x⊙;) aish (►__◄) was rough! ********************************************************************************************************************************would've been happy if in this last ep, we saw Kwan & Max with potential partners. but it is what it is i guess. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note - glad Krist has over come whatever phobias he had, portraying a gay character & it wasn't cringe trying to see him trying to convey affection. even though will admit, there were moments that were touch & go. but on a whole he was natural, let alone believable .

from where to start; glad Pearmai went back & made up with her mother, without apologizing (it's not that i have a problem with apologies), but don't think it's justified this time around. yes Pearmai's mother is the parent (who just cause of this statute, can do no wrong, if u go by any Asian drama). but she did(!) & Pearmai (regardless of how old she is) is still the child in this equation - the abandoned child at that. & no matter how much time passes or how old she gets, she will always carry the burden of being abandoned by her mother (it will color her life, the choices she makes etc..) the fact that she a well adjusted, loving caring person is all dude to her father. he did one hell of a job being both mother & father to Pearmai. so under his guidance, she understood that they needed to make peace more for her inner peace, then for her mother. so that was a good conclusion. *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Kawi (the perpetual child (¬‿¬)) & Pisaeng finally got their "happily ever after" that lasted about half of this ep. it was cute, but it gave me a "the other shoe is gonna drop" feel, the whole while we got the pair, acting like a pair. *******************************it was an interesting plot-twist, but this whole BL has not just been about romance, but educating & advancing the lgbtqia+ cause in Thailand, so it's fitting. **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also found it ironic that this time around Pisaeng turning the crystal ball, took him back to the previous time he turned it (while then it didn't work), guess desperation the specially ingredient that was missing last time?

kinda confused at how Kang reacts to his father; one would think he's an abusive ogre. seems cool & easy going - yeah a bit dismissive at times, but doesn't look like he's volatile. if anything it looks like he loves his son & doesn't want to pressure him, just cause of his own position in life. he wants him to have a normal childhood, while he's still in school (would love if my parents were half this easy going ＼（〇_ｏ）／ & supporting). ********************************************************************also considering he's lost his wife, think this is his way of making it up to Kang (guess he doesn't know how else to console his son). of course that isn't the way, as Kang's not happy & sees it as him not being 'worth the trouble'. ******************************wish the grandmother (who can see what is going on) had a serious talk with both father & son, both need to be aware of the other's feelings & intention's. ********************************************************************************************************given the father's behavior, it's a wonder Kang not a bigger menace in school & life. ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************personally i think Sailom should've told Kang, he needed to work harder for himself ผ(•̀_•́ผ) not for Sailom. that would be the logical thing to say. cause Kang indeed needs to try harder not cause he wants praise/recognition from his father. but so he can stand on his own two feet & be proud of what he has achieved on his own. but this a BL so Sailom said what he said - cliché. same with their names being connected; windmill, wind (^_-) a wonder didn't hear someone say "...the wind beneath his "wings"..." (≧∇≦)ﾉ~(>_<。)＼ *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************pretty tame ep - considering everything we have gotten until now (thought we would see more of Name, the loan-shark). but it just ended-up being a weird situation with a bunch of horny tourist's. (btw if Sailom has done this in the past, shouldn't he know better then to go up to random strangers, who r also foreigners?!? asking for trouble (ノへ￣、) & he's the genius in (►__◄)).

so glad Kwan gave Pearmai the heads-up. that is what a good friend should do! sure that was something she didn't do in the past (when Kawi showed up to Pearmai & Knot's wedding) this time around cause of her conversation with Knot, she realized Knot would never see her as more then a booty call. so good on her, cause other then forewarning Pearmai, she also forced Knot's hand, created a situation where she was forced to break-up their arrangement, otherwise her heart wouldn't let her. so yeah, it was a rude awakening, but it was needed for her to realize she was worth more. **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Pearmai is a gem - i really love her scenes, from the start she's not fake in a least. what i love most is that she aint scared to step up, or intervene on behalf of an underdog. she such a wholesome character - she has really great scenes (so hard to choose the best), but loved the scene with her father - heartwarming (ironically was thinking that her relationship with her father, is as good as Kawi's with his father & we get the scene in the hospital ╯︿╰). **********************************************************Pisaeng & his mother were a bit more strained, but it was more a matter of misunderstanding. also think this the first time i've seen Pisaeng act immature (usually it's Kawi forte (¬‿¬)). *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw mentioning man-child Kawi, dude keeps forgetting he promised to acting like a spoiled brat, guess old habits die hard (≧∇≦)

am surprising myself in this ep. 1st off Kawi actually turned a new page & isn't the belligerent like man-child he was until this ep. he is more then trying, at times he seemed like a different person. & took his side when he was talking to Pisaeng.i get where Pisaeng is coming from, but he chose to make it about (himself) about their relationship & Kawi's subtle way of saying he rather be with a female (which wasn't the point), a bit let down by a usually considerate/caring Pisaeng, especially where his bff is concerned. but as thankful things turned out ok, will ignore that spark of selfishness. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************the other surprise Knot, he still a mega-douche BUT is he in the wrong? both he & Kwan agreed to a casual sexual relationship/friends with benefits type situation, the fact that Kwan is emotionally involved, is whos fault? she's dreaming that he would have a change of heart, Knot's fault? he has always had eye's for Pearmai, something a blind person could see, wasn't that an indicator, to Kwan that she is nothing but a booty call?!? *******************************************************************also if Pearmai such a good friend, wouldn't she tell her about the arrangement she got with Knot?!? bff's do confide things like this ＼（〇_ｏ）／ but she was always passively going along with Knot, no matter how he acted or what he did, that not a clear indicator of his true character?!? yet she still infatuated with that? still hoping he would have a change of heart - didn't happen & he's the bad-guy? nah sorry but this time as much as i don't like the dude, he not to blame. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************he bad for outing Kawi & Pisaeng to Pearmai (& the whole class) at a moment she really didn't need anyone adding to her pain, but his arrangement with Kwan is not something u can put solely on his shoulders. she a big girl who needs to come to grips with the choices she made ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the actress playing Pearmai is really good. that scene with her father, heck the emotion's (⊙_⊙;). am glad the writer didn't do her dirty, if anything i think too date (in this drama) her acting is above the rest, especially the emotional scenes - bravo!

a very positive ep, but i don't have high hopes as we talking about Kawi after all. & yeah he confided (everything) in Pisaeng. but thinking about it, what is the point of that? the mistakes were all his own. everyone else is a pawn being moved/manipulated by him. he is the one that should stop & decide what he wants & go for it. the fact he realized it was Pisaeng all along. i am happy for Pisaeng & yet as we talking about Kawi, IMHO this can't be anything but a disaster＼（〇_ｏ）／ idk if this the pessimistic in me or the realist (given Kawi modus operandi, to date) . btw if anyone needed to "hit" on anyone (considering everything Kawi's put Pisaeng through) it should be Kawi wooing Pisaeng, not the other way around ( ˘︹˘ ) *********************************but the main plus in Kawi, was him deciding to quite drinking {{{(>_<)}}} ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Kawi ironically very impulsive & then when he needs to react faster turns cautious & reacts like a freakin snail. i really hope he comes clean with Pearmai, the least she deserves (as is this plot where she's done dirty twice is crass, insensitive & asinine). but can be thankful that getting hurt now, at least she wont fall into the arms of mega-douche Knot (really hope this annoying writer didn't go that witless route ผ(•̀_•́ผ)). so i hope Kawi moves ass & informs her before she sees them together & figures it out. ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: WTH is that old dude/fairy-godmother up too?!? him offering to fix Pisaeng;s car would what, enable him to reverse time when driving? i think the dude is bored (≧∇≦)ﾉ thankfully Pisaeng passed on the offer (ノへ￣、)

Pearmai marring Pisaeng in the future changes every time moron Kawi intervenes/plays with the crystal ball?!? & given what a bad personality Kawi's got, is it any wonder Pearmai (who would never look at a person like Knot), ended up marring the douche?!? do we need it spelled out that in a vulnerable moment she was taken advantage off?!? (this doesn't mean forced or r*ped) & found herself pregnant (she for sure didn't know he was with Kwan at the same time, until it was too late), desperate she's marring a douche that for sure wont be faithful or good in the long run. but what other options she got? Kawi, who basically stalked her, making sure her future would change. but when he got her, he wouldn't commit. ***************************Pisaeng who cause of Kawi's intervention (again) found the strength to confess, coming out of the closet enough to understand he couldn't marry a woman, no matter how good a friend she was?!? & Pearmai suddenly the main bad-guy of this BL - plz****************************************************************************************************************************************Kawi is a walking disaster, he's a freakin megalomaniac - the world revolves around his ass, & only when he needs something from someone, he realizes how important they r to him. apologizes, but that's just lip service cause he Never learns from his past mistakes - it's everyone else job to accommodate him - ugh. *******************************************************************also getting tired of him using alcohol as a convenient excuse to do what his heart really wants, then to wake-up the next day & act contrite . ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** idk after watching until now how anyone still going on about wanting a end 'ship' between Kawi & Pisaeng. u gotta be sick in the head to want to be with someone this toxic - sorry nah.

is Pisaeng a masochist? cause i don't get him always finding reason to get close to Kawi, especially not with the way he treats him. it's not just rude, but loud, aggressive & insulting. how has the haze of infatuation not evaporated?!? cause if it was me, i wouldn't just be avoiding Kawi, but would be out right hostile, even if he looked my way. *****************************************just cause i fell for u, was kind to u, doesn't give u the right to walk all over me - ima break ur f*cking legs if u try (╬▔皿▔)╯ but not Pisaeng ╯︿╰ OMG this frustrating to watch - think the only joy i get is watching Kawi receive his comeuppance from Knot & that group of moron's. then Kawi aint got a mouth, just an imbecilic smile on his stupid face ( ˘︹˘ ), quietly taking everything they dish out (＃°Д°) well deserved if u ask me - dude pleading for a ass whoopin Ψ(￣皿￣)Ψ & sorry the speech at the end or the "sorry" doesn't make up for the hell Kawi has been putting Pisaeng through. there for sure wouldn't be a lets be friends angle （︶^︶） but that's me **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************about Pearmai, i doubted she was trying to get with Kawi, thought cause she got rejected she knows how it feels & is offering friendship. but of course this twist was needed (it's a bad joke, her getting rejected by both guys - crass b.s writing IMHO) as non of the other guys r worthy of her - they immature morons. the writer really doing her dirty - her character deserves better then how this plot is panning out {{{(>_<)}}} **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Max is a good friend, he all about the tough love - liked that he realized he was too harsh on Pisaeng. also liked him putting his moronic friend in his place, dishing out some much needed truths to that moron - now only if the repentance & transformation stick ~(>_<。)＼

am against any type of bullying, BUT(!) considering it is Kawi who is being bullied, after how he tends to treat Pisaeng - i was all for his suffering - call me mean Ψ(￣∀￣)Ψ but this dude needs his ass handed to him. maybe that will be the wake-up call, that makes him realize how he should treat people （︶^︶）*******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Pearmai is a gem, she not only made things clear with Kawi, but then stepped in when the "seniors" & Knot continued with the moronic jokes. someone needed to shame them into stopping their antics. as is the whole trip was gross, what with the amount's of booze consumed - WTF was the point of this trip in the 1st place?!? i for sure didn't get it. it was pointless from where i am sitting (＃°Д°) ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************love Pisaeng, but dude is frustrating me - get he is infatuated with Kawi, that's why he allows him to walk all over him. but that aint love, that's toxic, masochistic b.s. it's great that he came clean with (the only good thing coming out that catastrophe off a night & a moronically drunk Kawi) Pearmai. she deserved the truth & he owed it to her as a good friend, let alone childhood, family friend. so even if nobody ends up together, it would be better then marring her, just cause they friends - when he's attracted to men＼（〇_ｏ）／

Knot a moron, when he shouted "...what is wrong with u..." & Pisaeng should've quesrioned him if he's got a mother & if he would like anyone talking about her, the way he talked about Pearmai. the only way to deal with the wannabe "class clowns" (who want to make everyone laugh, & don't have boundaries) is not only to shame him, but also the guys he hangs with, that think his antics r funny. *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw Kawi so hell bent of having Pearmai, how he gonna achieve that? keep milking Pisaeng?!? Pearmai comes from money & she might be sweet & friendly, but she got standers she is used to. Kawi has No goals other then "getting the girl". but that doesn't automatically mean he gonna keep her. for sure not if her family is loaded, so even if she wouldn't mind - they would. not to mention she's sweet on Pisaeng (ノへ￣、) **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Kawi is a tactless, insensitive moron, idk why the frack Pisaeng keeps putting up with his crap. after one time too many, would tell him to f*ck-off & keep his distance. what's even more annoying to me, Kawi hurting/insulting Pisaeng making him walk away time & again only to run after him with an olive branch, then to turn around & hit him on the head with the same branch - this getting old & really disliking Kawi (who btw stood-up his ex-friend Max). not to mention, on the all important 'list' he kinda forgot his father, who is walking around with a ticking time bomb in his chest. but that not important, right?!? add self-involved to the growing list - it will take a freakin miracle for Kawi to mature & be worthy of anyone let alone Pisaeng ＼（〇_ｏ）／

this is funny & all, also get that Kawi is acting the way he is, cause he knows there won't be any repercussion. but he's coming off as a major douche & user. sorry but he doesn't even like Pisaeng, but he has robbed him once & now he's just shamelessly asks for money, he knows he has no way of paying him back/that he won't have to pay back. & i am supposed to ignore all this(?) cause he's cute & a bit moronic/infantile?!? (＃°Д°) *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************i hate the "baby me" attitude, i sometimes see female character's portray, around their better half - how this any better? this somehow feels worse (ノへ￣、) ****************************************************************************************************also i didn't like how fast he gave up when dealing with his father's life - like sorry, but a few texts & a unanswered phone-call & u call it quits??? what?!? isn't ur father important to u? to me, he would be more important then a potential love interest ＼（〇_ｏ）／ i donno about the ex-friend Max, as don't have enough info to conclude one way or the other. but am coming to agree with Pisaeng opinion that Kawi is a covert narcissist, he acts like no one likes him & they judging him constantly. but in actuality he isn't interested in anyone & doesn't seek out their friendship heck he constantly avoids interactions with them & keeps everyone at arms length. they following his "do not enter" flashing sign & they the bad-guys? plz (^_-)db(-_^) ************************************************************************************************************************************************************also sorry, but if Pisaeng is into Kawi (men) why he marring Pearmai?!? they childhood friends, so shouldn't he know better then to use her as a beard?

was waiting for this to get completed, before starting (idk when it got completed, but am here now), & one hell of a 1st ep. i really don't like the time travel tropes, cause it's either a messy-plot, or u get a weird ending where one half is young & the other geriatric (≧∇≦)ﾉ but this was simple & fun. ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also the main plus for me was Fluke, dude good-looking & a great actor, not to mention he the type of good-looking that when he laughs, it enhances his beauty. the major plus he a great kisser (●'◡'●)(just finished a good BL where the kisses ruined it for me). the main minus ~(>_<。)(that got me worried) is Krist. he's good-looking & a good actor, but he has his moments & anyone seeing him in the SOTUS series, knows he's uncomfortable in BL (& that is putting it mildly) so hope he has gotten over whatever phobias he had, & can commit to the role, not make it cringe for me - the viewer (ノへ￣、) ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************all in all a fun ep & really enjoyed it - but the scene i loved the most was when Kawi went back in time & was sure he was dreaming about his dead father. that was so touching i teared up ╯︿╰ couldn't actually cry, cause of the confusion on the fathers face - that was funny (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)
