#anon I'm sorry it took me four months to answer this 😭

Do you think you'll feel comfortable posting your non-spolier thoughts on the movie? I hear Bas and Tong gave truly stand out performances.

Of course! It's a gorgeous movie that gets better with every rewatch. There is so much going on. Everybody is hiding something!

I don't think anyone is prepared to see Apo as Khem in his golden costume and koi eyeliner. Every time he appears on screen, I'm silently screaming into my fist. LOOK AT HIM I-

And, yes! I can attest that Tong and Bas are phenomenal. I think them and Khun Wichien's actor deserve nominations for Best Supporting Actors at all the awards.

And as I've said before, Mile's performance as Chat is something that makes every rewatch better. All those microexpressions are given a new meaning as you realize what he was concealing.

As a Southeast Asian, I was also incredibly proud to see elements of our shared culture represented in the movie. In fact, I meant to write a primer before you watch Man Suang about practices I recognized and have researched on, so everyone can appreciate them too 🥹.

GAH I'M JUST SO EXCITED TO FINALLY TALK ABOUT IT AND READ ALL THE META THAT'LL COME OUT. GOD I NEED TO SEE IT AGAIN. I NEED TO SEE CHAT HOLD KHEM'S WAIST AGAIN.

(oops that's a spoiler. but everyone knew about it so, lol)

Anon with the hubby!

about my last ask I had actually talked to him and gave him the vaguest explanation about what had happened and he told me he could just watch it with my ex -who also like motogp and we dated for like one month to convince our parents to let us travel all the way to italy in 2004 alone- but I told depends on how I’m feeling that day we well see

I told him about how I’m giving snippets to people on tumblr and he asked me if I have said how this whole discussion/relationship started and I have realised that I didn’t tell you the gem that was the start of our relationship

So before everything I want to say I’m from Iceland and he is from Hungary and we live in Manchester, my start in watching sport was motogp and his for some weird reason was Indycar??? I’m still confused how he did that but we roll with it. Said ex loves to be around cars and bike and one day in 2006 he came to my house and was like there is this new thing I found about called indycar and it’s so different so we saw a couple of races and decided to fly there to watch one live and that was when I first saw my hubby!!! And Icelandic and a Hungarian meeting in a indycar paddock is weird 😭 we were in the same hotel and he overheard us talking about indycar and my hubby being the most extroverted person jumped on our conversation and things was getting heated because we made a bet that indycar is more known than motogp so we asked around-hindsight is 20 because we were in indycar paddock past me you should have used that damn brain of yours- obviously the answer was indycar and thus began our relationship of watching races together when I was in Iceland and him in Hungary then began the Emails until 2013 where he proposed to me in the same hotel were everything started!! And the bet has lasted until this year!! I told him about Marc jumping ship and he told me that we should revisit our bet again and when I told you me and my “ex” were over the moon is understatement because finally!!! We will be able to get him into motogp! So we had a bet and the rules were that it must be something obscure not something easy to achieve, mine was that Marc would win two times in a row and his was that Pecco would not finish in the points at all -this bet was made as soon as it was confirmed that Marc would go to Gresini so in hindsight that was a stupid bet- AND I WON and I remember as soon as he won in misano I called my “ex” wanting to scream but he was calling me so it gave me busy sign but yeah Marc made a new fan that day!!

and I have realised this ask is so long so I apologise im advance but I just need to say that we are already four races into the 2013 season and he loves Marc and Vale and I don’t know how to break it to him that it was Vale in that incident-I have kept everything vague and it helps that I had my ex to talk to and not tell him anything so now everything is a surprise for him-(he thinks the incident involves Marc and Dani)(Dani could never but he doesn’t know that)

Hi again anon 👋👋👋

Sorry it took me this long to answer your ask, but this week my life has been pretty hectic and crazy. Also your ask was very long and I wanted to take my sweet time answering this, the same time you spend so much time writing this for me, which by the way, I love it.

See, I knew your hubby would understand and not pressuring you. I didn't know the full story, but I know that if someone really loves you, they won't even pressure you into something that will distress you. I'm happy he had your ex for this.

I'm glad your hubby not only is okay with you sharing all his shenanigans, but is like 'did you goo deep on our lore? No such a shame, share it!'7

Okay, this confirms I'm just weird, the first sport I watched, it was basketball. First the Spanish nt and then all I could until I set into a team. And then moved to MotoGP and F1 and then added WSBK and FE.

For what I read, IndyCar is fun, so I don't blame him for starting with that. And you have to admit it if after just a few races you flew to USA to watch them live.

How dare you ask in USA what is the most famous motorsport? They are so egocentric that they will always say Indycar! Basically everything from Europe that comes to USA is a major flop unless you bring also something from USA too. Like one of the reasons COTA is so full (not really compared to other tracks) is because MotoAmerica is also there too as a support series, but for most people MotoGP is just the extra they get for MotoAmerica.

I'm not very romantic (sorry I'm aro) but your whole story is so damn cute. I also imagine that maintaining a long distance was difficult for both of you. I'm happy you managed it so you can just told us all the spinets of your life and all his reactions. I think he was looking at you disappointed today because the Sprint was boring as hell and Pecco just decided to flop on his own.

Okay how the hell did your hubby bet against Ducati's golden boy? That bike is a fucking rocket and Gigi loves his boy too much. It was obviously he would bee fighting for the championship because the other manufactures are sleeping. If I had to bet on something obscure it would have been a Honda or Yamaha podium because that is nearly impossible with the army of Ducatis and the rocket they have.

Marc and Vale strong is their charisma, and they are both good riders in their own rights. It's true that when Marc came into MotoGP Vale was past his prime just hopping to be able to have a resurgence, which happened in 2015, but yeah they are both easy to love. Specially for someone who is just starting and doesn't know about Sepang or the whole 2015 season. Let him suffer and pick a side. Don't spoilt it to him. Let him suffer. Also how dare him acuses poor Dani? He's one of the cleanest riders ever. I think it was Aragón 2015, which is one of my favourite races, where Vale said he loved his fight with Dani, despite losing. he knew it was a hard but fair fight and he couldn't be mad at Dani. It was Aragón 2015 or San Marino 2016, which I also love

Don't even apology to yapping and sending long ask, I love them. No seriously I love them. Anyway, thanks for this and sorry for the looooong answer

HIIIII it's friendly anon back again!! ヾ(ゝω・)ノ

the pleasure is all mine, i assure you! :D i was a bit apprehensive to drop in your inbox at first - since i'm not well-versed in self-shipping culture and ask culture on this site is tragically dead - but i got a cool new parasocial friendship out of it and i discovered a new and exciting way to consume media and enjoy characters, so i'm glad that i did!! \^o^/ it took me a long time to realize it, but i truly think self-shipping was the last piece of the puzzle that i was missing in my previous hyperfixations. so what if that man is fictional, what do you mean he can't be mine??

in other news, i've already gotten four of my friends to watch steins;gate and i also recently convinced my sister and her husband to give it a try! i have rewatched the entire show three times alone this month, i am fully insane 🙏

WAITTTT THOSE CATBOY EDITS ARE SO CUTE ACTUALLY 🥺🥺i'm so impressed with how authentic they look, how did you capture the steins;gate style so well?? the second one on particular looks so real, suddenly i'm convinced daru was a catboy the whole time and i just never noticed lol

MAD respect for that 200-unit daru pic collection btw, i've been deep-diving in the darkest corners of the internet for fanart of okabe and i have found some amazing comics featuring daru that made me think of you ( ¯ ³¯)♡! on that note, i've also seen some very sweet drawings of daru with baby suzuha which, out of curiosity, made me wonder what your thoughts on them are together as father and daughter! i adore them honestly, but i'm curious to know if you feel differently about them since you self-ship with daru! i've seen a couple selfshippers in another fandom i frequent who have drawn fankids with their f/o's before and that got me wondering since suzuha is a unique case :)

ASDFJAKSFKSF YES THAT WAS THE NAME OF THE VN idk why i called it that, i think someone else called it that in a reddit post-

nevertheless, my point stands. i cannot even begin to express my disappointment that we didn't get to see daru OR okabe in a maid outfit. heck, we didn't even get to see daru in his penguin suit (though the fact that he was really popular in it made me cackle)! i mean it when i say that if the devs hadn't been cowards and gave us frilly daru and okabe, i would not have looked even twice at the girls. the men yearn for the frills!!! \o/

wahhhh you really are so nice, i appreciate you a bunch :) :) and wow, i thought for sure you'd been part of the community for longer than a year, you seem so comfortable here! was it easy for you to get settled in the community? you've been so nice, but i'm a bit scared to dip my toes in the self-shipping tag if you have any advice👉👈 (thank you again for being so kind and accommodating!! ^^;)

I DID, I SAID THE LINE!! WHERE IS MY PRIZE

your message has been delivered and summarily ignored except for the kiss which he accepted with dignity :3

to sign off, i am blowing both you and daru a pair of friendly kisses! i wish you both a very good night AND OH MAN I ALMOST FORGOT IT'S VALENTINE'S DAY IN TWO DAYS??? in that case, i wish you both a good night AND a wonderful valentine's day if you have any plans!!

thank you again for reading!! i will most assuredly be back if i am still welcome! (ᴗ͈ ˬᴗ͈)ꕤ.ﾟ

OMG HI ONCE AGAIN!! SO SORRY IF I TOOK SO LONG TO ANSWER YOUR ASK, I WAS BUSYY 😭 Still so happy for the fact you're enjoying your new hobbie, I think everyone should try selfshipping at least once in their lives.. and woAHH amazing steins;gate propaganda you've done there! Wish I could do that to most of my friends but some have already seen it ages ago and some aren't just interested so I just kinda gave up HFH ALSO HOOOLY and I thought finishing the series in like,, 2 months was mental but you got me there I'm honest /lh I SERIOUSLY DON'T KNOW HOW I DID IT?? I just kinda went with it by using a small brush with no pressure and blurring out everything a little bit so it matched the og pic's quality I suppose?? I'm happy you think they seem legit, I did my job well then ; u ; <3 OMG THAT'S SO SWEET OF YOU THOUGHH 🥺🥺 now you got me curious on which ones you're referring to waa.. ALSO UMM.. ABOUT SUZUHA- I had a few concepts for how my relationship with Daru would work in-universe.. so I made a couple of them: one is the "good" ending I guess, while another is just "angst™"

.. yeah, can you tell I felt awful while coming up with the second one? GDGSFGFSD IT'S FINE THOUGH, I'M OK NOW But this is besides the point; I actually really love Suzuha's character and I prefer her over the other girls.. and my favorite dynamic is hers with Daru and Yuki (ironically).. seeing Daru being a dad melts my heart because sometimes I wish I had a father figure as sweet as he is aaa I prefer to see myself with Daru than project myself onto Yuki though, because I'd treat him differently than he does sometimes if I gotta be honest Still, hope you like the silly ideas- WAIT,, UH?? DARU HAS A PENGUIN SUIT?? I NEED TO SEE IT SO BADD 😭😭 Also fr, why can't they just satisfy the boy's fans for once,, I feel like they're leaving us out on purpose at this point- /j

Btw, for the selfship community part, I didn't really do much! I just started to post my artwork in the tag and started following and interacting with some peeps, although rarely because I'm still akward about it, but the people in it are so nice!! In my opinion, it's worth a shot!

Also thank you so much!! I hope you had a great Valentine's day with Okabe as well, sending you kisses as well! I posted a fanart that is kinda vday themed but nothing selfshippy unfortunately, but me and Daru would have probably chilled at home, exchanging eachother chocolates and stuff like that! Idk, I'm not a very "outside" person but if we had in plan to go somewhere like the May Queen to get something together, I wouldn't have minded either!

Of course you're welcome to come back, it's always a pleasure! Since I don't get asks often, it brightens up my day to see something in my inbox once in a while, so thank you still for feeling comfy enough to come back! Have a great day/night! 💕💕

[uygmoeb]

*insert darth vadar screaming no* i knew it dnandjsj if it isn't on the app than it is on computer lol. i cannot get away from asks being lost in space huh? tumblr why i just wanna chit chat with my santa buddy! are you jelly of us!? ok round 2 lol

oohh i actually used to take spanish classes but i kinda forgot like 90 percent of what i kmew (except from what i remember from the sjow dora lol) idk why i stopped taking my classes, maybe i lost interest? i wish i could pick up a new one but i get so lazy about everything dijsndjs thank you!! a bit sad since technically english is my 2nd lamguage so i do struggle with my first one but since i use it much more (and being born in the states cx) it is something i am more comfortable with using and express myself ya know?

right!?! like my mind boggles how they always keep improving and they ARE STILL rookies!? that's just, wow ya know? i cannot wait to see them improve more in the future! but oohh for sure, if you like so manh groups then catching up with content is just impossible! lets not get into the topic if there are comebacks happening at the same time? just chaos then lol but at the end of the day, remember to take content at your own pace! there is no rush afterall and content should be enjoyed afterall

oohhh I'm curious to see what you have made hehe im sure it is fabulous! but yeah i have been doing it for a qhile, i want to say since say 2018ish? i am excited for this year since besides i am in 3 but also i have learned how to do creations much better so I'm excited to show that off! but i do enjoy them yes, i like that with this event you can meet or make some friends with people in a fandom. espeically if you don't really interact within the fandom ya know?

yes your blog name is amazing, it is my new favorite non canon name haha xD but pish posh now, you're much more awesome sauce imo! wait i misspelled your name!? noo djshdhjs that cannot be allowed (i like to be respectful with names c:) ~moa Santa

ok so i dont feel good rn so im gonna answer this pretty quick before i go to sleep bc. yeah. im also not able to put a read more on mobile so oops i dont have it in me to go to my computer rn

i only know and remember what i do from working with a spanish speaking kitchen crew who would talk simple spanish with me and explain things i didnt understand, i miss them so much :( but ok ok can i ask what ur first language is bc im curious hskfhks

honestly.. all the rookie groups lately im like those arent. those cant be rookies? bc they all are just so amazing, and their presence on stage is unreal and matches that of some of the older groups, if they arent even better and not to mention some of the songs they come out with? masterpieces tbh idk what the companies have been feeding them or whats in the water there but damn and idk how they keep getting better and outdoing themselves each time either skfjks

im super shy actually believe it or not and i like.. cant talk to anybody thru asks if its not on anon hskfhks it took me four months of talking to someone, who even knew who i was, for me to come off anon for her 😭

ooooo so how has three been for u? do u feel like it’s a lot?? my first year and i only entered two but i saw another one i wanted in on so bad for another kpop group :( but i felt like two was enough lol but i do appreciate the way it’s let me interact with u and my person so theres that

no u didnt misspell my name hskfhks idk what we were talking about with that one but u got it right, but it’s hurting me to read and the screen feels so so bright so im leaving off my response here :( sorry if it’s shorter than normal my head just hurts a lot :((
