This is apparently a very important subject to you and I'm going to bow out - I think when you start throwing around accusations there's really nothing to be gained in discussion,

I know - going from Mike Chinnarat to this Nhai is too jarring to even mentally process. I'm just guessing it will be Ep Eleven - it always seems to be.

I haven't seen the review - is it worth reading, or should I avoid it for spoilers?

There's something weird about the rating of this - if you look at the details, it looks like it averages close to 8.5, yet it's 6.9. Could all of you vote? I think it's important to support independent low-budget productions like this - they aren't possible without our support.

Anyway, the second part is absolutely amazing. Oak has been really good in this, but in the final scene Mon is first-rate. That was a very difficult scene to pull off.

I know this was personal to the director, but it absolutely transported me back to that age with painful vividness.

On a minor note, the boys need to get a little waste bin to put by the bed.

It's out for channel members, and tomorrow for general audiences. It's worth the wait.

I think I mostly agree with everything - but I have to admit I haven't been paying enough attention to pick up everything - I usually FF through the girl scenes and I didn't really connect her with anything else, so now I'm starting to fear she's going to be Ep. Eleven Drama.

No judgment - Ai can choke me anytime.

Ai has two facial expressions: 1) Must f@#^ you now, and 2) Must strangle you now. Often both.

My Only 12% is fairly repetitive too, but at least it isn't crammed with product placements. I'm surprised there isn't some skin-care solution that they put in the tub of water for the wipe-downs.

They're incarnated, not reincarnated, i.e. they're a cat and a dog put in human bodies. They have full memories of their time as pets and still act like a cat and dog, and in any case, Jung Woo has never died and remembers them as his pets.

Also, can you calm down? I don't see how it's possible to take what I said so seriously.

TBH, if Ai is telling the truth about his past, is he really bi? Kindergarten doesn't count - if I counted everything I did with girls in my neighborhood at that age I'm Don Juan. And his only other relationship involved only holding hands with a girl in junior high.

Also, wasn't there a guy he was sleeping with in the first episode? And I could swear he said he was gay at some point. The subtitles aren't the best, which is another issue in making sense of anything.

It was a tube of lube. My interpretation was they had sex in the car and then again during the night.

OK - I think that mosly under plot inconsistency rather than character inconsistency - the plot inconsistency is so huge that I just ignore it and watch for cuteness (which is exactly the opposite of how I usually am, so I guess I'm character-inconsistent, lol). It's also inconsistent with Tonhon Chonlatee wherein Tonhon was a huge homophobe and didn't know Ai & Nhai were togther for many years, not just a week or two.

Nhai veers between being an idiot and insightful, but I guess I've been seeing it as him playing cutesy-stupid because he knows it works on Ai - he's reliably manipulative, even if it's mostly just passive-aggression. While he puts the breaks on sex, it usually comes off as playing hard to get to rev Ai up - like in the car, and he usually gives in once he's provoked Ai into being aggressive, which I think he likes. Ai's behavior is consisent, it's just his backstory that is all over the place. You'd think he'd want to discuss things with his gay dads, but he seems to have forgotten they exist.

Some of it seems to me to be the awful subtitles. "Sister" can mean an actual sibling, a female friend, or a cousin, and I interpreted it as friend for the reason you mentioned, and for most of the rest I'm so confused that I'm just following the basic thrust of the story.

I get that every BL is going to have a totally pointless wipe-down scene. But every episode? Last episode there were two wipedowns.

I have to admit Nhai was really cute this ep - I like his passive-aggression.

They seemed to imply they had sex twice this ep - once in the car, and again some time during the night. Is that how you all saw it?

The got together for years, then Ton found out, then they got into an accident and both got amnesia, and they're back together again now. I'm not sure why they bothered to have this related to the other series. Maybe they saved time not having to come up with new names for the characters.

What was inconsistent for you? I sort of feel that way, but I can't put my finger on it.

Especially such a weak and sickly child.

Well, he was lying when he said he doesn't care about the past, but he's not psycho jealous.

You're really taking this conversation seriously.

Yeah, but they remember being pets and he's the same person, so it's not really the same as a normal reincarnation story - they're not so much reincarnated as incarnated - they're the same beings except in human bodies, which is why they still act like a cat and a dog.

People don't often state it, but 99% of BL characters are Bi, so I'm not sure there's a lack of representation. I think it's gay characters that are underrespresented.
