Pit Babe Unpopular Opinion...Maybe???

So I know a lot of us wanted it to end in Mpreg. In my head Jeff is very much pregnant. Where my unpopular opinion comes from is that I don't think Babe is. I don't think would ever get pregnant.

Based on his reaction when Charlie revealed Tony's evil plan, he seemed disgusted at the thought of pregnancy. From how Babe is characterized I do not think he would want to be pregnant. He would want kids but he would not want to be the one that carries them. To me if Babe and Charlie were to have a child they would either adopt or surrogacy, but I honestly think Charlie would carry their kid if prompted.

So no pregnant Babe but pregnant Charlie. I feel like that is more in line with their characters

At this point this is a Cherry Magic + text posts series.

gonna send you over to tenkei_sensei on ao3 (https://archiveofourown.org/users/Tenkei_Sensei/pseuds/Tenkei_Sensei) this man is single-handedly carrying iozen on ao3 bro cares so much about akyr (also he’s posted a vid talking about why he cares so much about them: https://youtu.be/kOIF4NtCHdE?si=Z7oK7pMSutVcAJNX)

I have watched his videos and gone through his fics 🤣🤣 now I am starving

[captainbritt-aus]

Why the hell did I do this to myself??!!

I have gotten sucked into Paradox Live. And of course it's just my luck that Iori x Zen has captured my mind. But there is no content for them which is a CRIME!!!!!

What do you mean people aren't foaming at the mouth for the found family that is Akanyatsura

I do need the Ray apologist to open their eyes and actually watch the show!! It is not his friends' job to constantly make sure he's okay. We dropped into this story as it was happening, but we can infer from things they've said in the show that them having to watch after Ray is a reoccurring theme. I fully understand why Cheum snapped at Ray. We can assume she's had to watch this behavior for a couple years and is tired because it's reaching a boiling point and now he's bringing other people into it.

All of these characters are flawed and haven't made the best decisions, but it is not their jobs to baby Ray all the time. People need to open their fucking eyes and see that Ray is just as shitty of a friend at times!! Just because his mom died and he's got daddy issues doesn't absolve him from his wrong doings and it's so annoying that so many people are willing to point fingers at other characters for Ray's actions.

I hope he starts to realize that he is very close to losing those he cares about because of his behavior. He needs serious help and he won't get that until he is forced to.

Only Friends EP 8

Ray it's on sight!!! You need to catch these hands because boy some needs to knock some sense into you!!!

[captainbritt-aus]

I can't wait for Ray to start dating Mew and it crumbles in front of him because he doesn't understand what is needed to truly love someone. He loves the idea of Mew and what Mew has done for him. I don't think he truly loves Mew. And once it crumbles, probably from his own doing, he will run back to Sand because he's treating that boy like a backup plan. And I hope Sand doesn't give in and let's him wallow in his pity. Because that's what Ray needs a really really big wake up call. This kid has been offered rehab, has had people call him an addict and he just shrugs it off and goes about his day. So he needs an actual wake up call to realize he has a problem!!!

I need Ray to take a hard look in the mirror and see that he's not much different from Top and Boston with the way he treats people. He treats Sand as if he's disposal and there at his beck and call. I can't wait for the Ray reckoning.

I need people to open their eyes and realize that Ray is just as messed up as every other character on this show. Stop trying to shift the blame for his actions onto other characters. It's annoying and you're missing the entire point of the show by doing that!!!

Only Friends Ep 6

WHAT THE FUCKDBSND??!!!

I SCREAMED when Mew said I love the sounds you make then plays the AUDIO!!!!

Also I need people to stop being so far up Ray's ass. Like he's just as in the wrong as everyone else is. He is not absolved of anything. None of the characters are. None of them are good people!!!! That's what makes the show interesting.

Oh everything has started to implode and I'm eating every minute of it up!!

Also this episode shows that Sand is also shitty and unhinged like the rest of them. I knew he was!!

[captainbritt-aus]

Only Friends EP 5

Boston us such a miserable person!! Like even aside from sleeping with his friend's boyfriend, he's just miserable and wants everyone else to be miserable with him. The world revolves around him in his mind and if he's not happy no one else can be happy. The entire interaction with Ray was so unprovoked and I think it proves that Ray and Boston aren't really close. I don't think Boston is that close with his friend group.

Also Mew...babes...please open your eyes. When he finds out about Top he's going to go wild. At least I hope he does. Because this episode was just heart eyes and insecurity seeping in for him. He really picked the biggest red flag and said I can change him.

Sand and Ray indeed imploded. We also got a first tear!! I think this also exposed that Sand is quick to jump into alterations. He does not mind starting fights as we've seen since episode one. Also I wonder if his mom's debt will come back into play at some point.

This episode proved don't get cross faded with your whore friend and the guy you're starting to develop feelings for.

Next week's episode looks even wilder. Buckle in everyone we're reaching peak messy!!

[captainbritt-aus]

I think people are trying too hard to try and make characters in Only friends seem like they are morally superior to the others. None of these guys are "good". They all have or will do morally questionable things!!! And that's okay! That's what the show is about. So all the oh mew is terrible but Ray is the best and nicest because of blah blah. Or Nick is a victim in all of this. Or Sand is the only good person in this. They're all wrong because none of them are without fault or morally superior people.

[captainbritt-aus]

Only Friends EP 4

Omg so much happened this episode!!!

When nick was telling sand about how he found out that Top and Boston slept together. I love how sand wasn't appalled that he bugged the car but looked more shocked that he actually had feelings for Boston 🤣🤣

Also when Top took Mew into the photo booth. I was like oh no is this the same one or does Top just have a thing for photobooth.

I also feel like Top finally rejecting Boston is not going to go down well. Especially because top basically was like oh you're mad because you think you're better than mew but I still chose him

Sand and Ray's music date thing was cute. Oh these boys are going to crash in such a blaze of glory. Ray is trading one attachment for another with Sand and that is not going to be good.

Also mew knowing Ray likes him and setting a firm boundary kind of blows up those theories that mew knows Ray likes him but is using it to manipulate Ray. Which I don't buy the theories that mew is the master manipulator. I do however think he is going to go wild when he finds out about Boston and top.

Mew isn't as perceptive as some people want him to be. He is rather naive and oblivious and that just adds to his character. Because he wants people to think he knows more than he actually does. And once he does know more he will go on a rampage, but we're not there yet.

Next week looks like we'll be getting some "fluff" but it'll probably devolve into mess.

[captainbritt-aus]

SandRay are going to implode!

As we have seen from the progression of their situationship, Sand seems more self-aware they Ray who is throwing himself into this thing. We see at the end of Episode 3, Sand basically says we should stay as a one time thing once Ray pulls back from him. However, we see them cozying up in the trailer for Episode 4.

Here's what I'm thinking: Ray latches onto Sand as a new addiction or at least sees him as something that takes his mind off of things. I think Sand will try to pull back to keep from letting himself be pulled under by Ray's affection and just the whirlwind of a person that he is. And I don't think Ray will take this well at all.

In the trailer, Ray has some pretty choice words for Sand and I think it's him lashing out because Sand doesn't want to get himself hurt.

At the end of Episode 2, Sand looked almost resigned to the fact that him and Ray getting together is a ticking time bomb. So I can't wait for their unraveling because I don't think Sand is as put together as he wants people to think.

[captainbritt-aus]

I know it's not an original thought, but I do not think Sand is going to be the one getting burned. Sand knows what could possibly happen if he and Ray started sleeping together. However, as we have seen, Ray latches on to things to escape. I think a case can be made that Ray will throw himself into Sand's life beyond what constitutes "friends with benefits".

I predict that this will cause Sand to pull back which will then cause Ray to snap. I can also see Sand become collateral damage in whatever schemes get cooked up.

Only Friends EP. 2

This is the face of a man who knows that things are going to get messy.

Sand just strapped himself onto a roller coaster with no brakes and he knows it!!

Ray, babes, you need therapy not alcohol or some guy you pay to drink with. You need lots of therapy and rehab. I think Ray is going to start clinging to Sand like a lifeline. This boy is going to think that Sand is the answer to everything that is wrong with him and Sand did not sign up for that. Which means it's going to blow up for Ray and oh boy that aftermath.

Oh! Poor Nick. This poor boy has found his way into a lion's den and thinks the lion can be domesticated. Boy run!! He's the only character that I feel bad for.

I don't know if I trust the story that Top gave Mew. It seemed very convenient.

[captainbritt-aus]

I know I'm not the only one who's feeling this way, but I'm surprised how fast people have turned to Ray vs. His friends with his friends being horrible people.

I for one understand why his friends act how they do. Here's our friend who always gets wasted when we go out and then he starts fights and we have to drag him away and bring him home. We have to remember these are people in their early 20s. It's easy for us looking in to say oh Ray has a drinking problem and probably some deeper issues. It's not so easy when you're in it.

It is seen that his friends do care but they're human and having to care for someone who probably starts arguments when drunk is tiring and they've probably learned to just let him be until it gets too much. It's clear they have a system in place where someone usually is the one to take him home.

After one episode, I am on no one's side and I'm just waiting for how messy it's going to get. But I also am not going to vilify people after one episode.

ONLY FRIENDS EP. 1

When they were presenting on their school project I was like oh no this is going to not only ruin their friendship but their academics too!!

Boston do not fuck where you eat! Why bring Top onto your project and then feel weird when he starts making moves on your friend??!!

I am sure that Ray will end up crashing his car and getting into a fight while drunk. This boy just wants to square up with anybody when drunk.

Oh how crazy it would be to stay at this hostel where everyone running it has beef with each other

Only Friends Trailer Predictions/Questions

So after watching the trailer, I was gagged like everyone else but now I am left wondering. So below are things from the trailer that stuck out to me and my predictions.

1. This clips seems like a pissing contest between Ray and Top. Top seems to be rubbing it in Ray's face that he's mew's boyfriend.

2. Sir this is a Best Buy!! Why are you using your broken phone as foreplay.

3. I think this is the thesis of the show. Yall need therapy. Getting dicked down is not therapy. I think this also may allude to something else going on with Ray. But also line before this where San says friends don't charge friend, I think that will come back

4. Nothing good happens when a dark room is involved!! In the original teaser it showed Nick looking through some photos and potentially a sex tape. I think this dark room and these pictures will be used to blow up how messy Boston is

5. 3 against 1. There friendship is about to be drowning in that pool like Boston. But also why does Ray have a sling? What events lead to this??

6. Happy lesbians...for now at least. I hope they stay happy because I think we'll need a bright spot and a break from all the mess and fracturing relationships

7. Is someone going to OD??? Who's dabbling in pill popping??

8. Oh he's catching feelings. I think Ray is going to try to use San as something to "fix" him but also he seems like he'll have some issues with San's line of work

9. What is Sand's beef with Top?? Also first better have the bat he had in the first trailer because I want to see him swing a bat at someone or destroy someone's property.

I could list things for ages but i won't. I need this show so bad now!!! I am also so glad that it will be a weekly release because then it can dish out maximum pain.
