That scene in Bed Friend is really hitting me in my COLORISM RUINS EVERYTHING BECAUSE LOVERS WITH CONTRASTING SKIN TONES ARE THE SEXIEST THING ON THE PLANET spot. Let the melanated characters (and actors) get loved on ON GOD.
thai bl fans highkey need to change the way they talk about these actors and their dynamics. during the formative years of the industry it was definitely fair to critique their insistence that all the actors involved were straight whilst still pushing fanservice the way they did; but that hasn't been the standard for literal years at this point.
and i'd go as far as to say it's homophobic. with relationships like earthmix and mosbank who have had multiple engagement ceremonies at this point, use exclusive couple terms with each other, live together... like they don't owe you big announcements to respect that it's clearly not fanservice.
i've even seen people call joong a predator for how he consensually kisses on dunk. like do people hear themselves?? it's like if you're going to consume queer content, then be comfortable with the people behind the content being queer. in an industry of hundreds of actors playing couples some of them are going to inevitably pair off. it's not being a "dirty shipper" to like,,, acknowledge that.
What if I told you none of it was accidental
And the first night that you saw me, nothing was gonna stop me?
I laid the groundwork and then, just like clockwork
The dominoes cascaded in a line. What if I told you I'm a mastermind?
And now you're mine. It was all by design. 'Cause I'm a mastermind
This whole Pitbabe discourse reminds me so much of Big Dragon where we all went from “haha look at this trash watch” to “wait why am I so invested why is this good” in a matter of weeks
A tiger and a dragon, who were enemies since the beginning. Never thought that we would meet this way. Which way? You, the one who makes my heart pound every time I'm around you. I'm sorry Yai. I'm sorry about my way of getting to you. And it hurt you. But, I promise you that from now on, I'll never make you shed a tear. Please be my boyfriend.
