End of Year Awards, 2024 (Sorry It's Late)

Trigger Warning: Nuclear War, Sex Crimes, That Twat Donald Trump, Smartarse Dune References, The Ruination of Perfectly Good Cakes with Human Faeces.

So, here we are again. 2024 is hurtling towards the end of the track at break-neck speed and the ol’ girl ain’t got no brakes. At this point, a collision with 2025 seems inevitable and experts are advising the citizenry to remain indoors and read this blog. In other words, it’s time to dish out some profoundly uninspiring awards to people who’ve never heard of either of us and wouldn’t care if they had. Because what End of Year would be complete without an End of Year Awards Show? (Please note that the ‘show’ is entirely in your head and this is just words on page. As such, Secret-Diary cannot be held responsible for any injury sustained from falling spotlights and irate hosts.) Anyhoo, you all know the drill by now, and if you don’t I can’t be arsed to introduce you. You can look up the drill on MySpace or whatever the cool kids are affecting not to use nowadays. Let’s dive right the fuck in.

The Boy Who Cried ‘Nukes’ Award… ...Goes to Vladimir Putin, who’s now threatened to escalate the war in the Ukraine to nuclear proportions so many times he’s starting to look like a histrionic spouse threatening to top himself if his wife sleeps with JUST ONE MORE OTHER DUDE! Whether he actually would is somewhat besides the point at this stage, since nobody who matters believes the bald cunt. Thus, from an international diplomacy perspective the fangs he’s bearing do look a lot like novelty Halloween dentures. That’s worrying, of course, because if it turns out he really is capable of starting a thermonuclear conflict just to prove a point, nobody will really have any contingency for what do after he drops the first bomb and then asks us, as a planet, to call his bluff. The good news is that he probably won’t do that, because the international response might just be the most concerted effort at assassination since Baron Harkonen and Emperor Shadam IV decided that Duke Leto was too much of a goody two-shoes and was making them look bad. Sorry, that’s the closest thing I can muster to a joke when talking about the spectre of nuclear annihilation, especially since I live just over the border from Scotland and can therefore see exactly what that would look like just by facing north on a clear day. (I jest, of course: I actually love Scotland. It’s just very empty).

The Special ‘Speaking of Which…’ Award… Goes to Dune Part II, for being a really excellent film whose universe I was literally just alluding to. It’s almost like I plan these blog entries out with meticulous care! (I don’t.)

The ‘Standing Under a Grand Piano and Refusing to Move’ Award for Thudding Inevitability… … Goes, sadly, to the re-election of America’s foremost spite-Savaloy, Donald Trump: a man with the social attitudes of an early-modern Robber Baron, the political ethos of Ayn Rand and the haircut of a particularly whippy cat turd. Obviously, this man shouldn’t be in charge of a country, but – as I keep trying to explain to people – elections aren’t rational events where everyone in a nation sits down and has a good hard think about who should actually run things. Rather, they’re emotional events in which the public gets together to tell the elites whose brand of bullshit they’re most sick of this time around. Since the Democrats are, kinda-sorta, more closely associated with the current circus of virtue-signalling L.A. quasi-liberalism than the Republicans, the Republicans won. And no, it’s not fair that the basically competent and not-awful human beings in the Democratic Party got punished for a phenomenon that owes more to media billionaires doing brand-management than anything actually political. And no again, it’s really not fair that ordinary American citizens will suffer under the tyrannical rule of a man whose second name is literally synonymous with butt-wind because of an ill-advised decision driven by a weird combination of emotionality and cynicism, but this is where western civilisation is at now, and somebody should have seen this coming way, way sooner. Luckily, I live in England, and not even one of the shit bits, so I don’t have to care! Moving on!

The ‘Brian Cox Bursting Naked from a Cake’ Award for Nicest Surprise… … Goes to the film The Substance, which people kept praising relentlessly at me but which I seriously doubted would be good. It looked a bit… how can I put this? It looked a bit like the kind of film someone would make if their previous experience with film-making was shouting their opinions through a megaphone while wearing the hollow shell of an analogue TV on their head. But then I actually got round to watching it and it turned out to be an absolute banger of a movie! Aside from embodying the mature, sometimes-ambivalent and reliably-thoughtful kind of feminism that most flicks in its political category eschew in favour of tawdry right-on whooping, it’s also just a gloriously surreal body-horror epic with fantastic visual design and a surprising sense of humour. More of this please, Hollywood!

The Best Song I’ve Discovered This Year Award… … Goes to Hey, I Don’t Work Here, by Tom Cardy, which actually came out two years ago but whose existence I was blithely unaware of until yesterday. I was listening to music on Youtube with my sister and it auto-played after another song and took me completely by surprise. To all intents and purposes, it’s just an Australian man in a grubby vest telling us how pissed off he is by people mistaking him for a shop assistant, life-guard and (ultimately) an ambassador to the stars for planet Earth. Somehow, it’s even more surreal than that description makes it sound. It’s a really bizarre song and, because it caught me off guard, it had me laughing like a fucking a lunatic. Of course, it wasn’t the only contender for this award and honourable mentions should also be made to helloworld.java by Nanowar of Steel, I am the Motherfucker by Rob U. Blind and Creepshow by Avantasia. None of them nearly made me pee myself laughing however, so Hey, I Don’t Work Here still takes the gold.

The ‘Bald Men Fighting Over a Comb’ Award for Stupidest Debate… … Still goes to the idiotic argument around AI-generated images and videos, since both sides manage to be complete fucking idiots in their own special ways. On the one hand, you’ve got a bunch of hooting tech bros who seem to think that you can replace the innate spark of human creativity with algorithms. These are the same clueless arseholes, incidentally, who keep proclaiming they’re within a few years of creating a genuinely sentient super-intelligent AI because they can’t tell the difference between simulated language proficiency and consciousness. On the other hand, you’ve got some of the whiniest motherfuckers on the planet who seem to think that AI art will make them – self-proclaimed artists that they are – obsolete. They also like to bang on about how it’s copyright infringement, because apparently the fact that an AI has to be trained on text and images that already exist is taking something away from them (spoiler warning: it isn’t, or, if it is, so is the learning process of every human writer and artist since the year dot). Well, gather round dipshits, because Uncle Diary’s gon’ drop some knowledge on y’all! First, AI can’t produce ‘art’, in any meaningful sense of the term. That’s partly because it recombinative, meaning it can only iterate on and blend what already exists, not conceive of genuinely new ideas, even when assisted with some very specific prompts, and its partly because AI has no desire to create art. It only does what you tell it, acting completely without a creative drive of its own. Since a key component of art is that genuine creative drive and, without it, all you have is ‘content’, the phrase ‘AI art’ is itself paradoxical and meaningless. So no, tech bros: your pet robots aren’t going to disrupt the creative sector and revolutionise the artworld. Second, nobody draws or writes or creates art the old-fashioned way because it’s convenient: the desire to master those skills to produce something uniquely your own is intrinsic and not reliant on if there’s a better option available. Case in point, I still draw by hand sometimes, even though I’m not even an artist and despite having image rendering tools at my disposal, simply because it’s a joy to bring something into being in that way. So no, ‘artists’ (and I’m so, so dubious that you are), your entire vocation isn’t going to be wiped from the surface of existence by the latest mod-con. Films didn’t magically replace books; television didn’t magically replace films; videogames didn’t magically replace television. Nor did pens replace pencils; nor did computer screens replace paper. And AI isn’t replacing shit either: it’s just another medium/tool for the box. Look, I use AI. Not to write with, because that would be cheating. I write to tell a story that’s uniquely my own and it wouldn’t be if I was dicking about inserting paragraphs shat out by a computer. But I do use it to help me design the front covers: I get it spit out individual assets based on my rubbish sketches, then collage them into something professional and coherent-looking by hand. The difference is that the covers aren’t ‘art’: they’re packaging, designed to catch the eye and grab your attention. I’m not a very good artist (and can’t afford to pay one), but I can do basic graphic design if a computer gives me the components. Here, AI is filling in a simple gap in my skillset so I can focus on the aspect of my work that actually matters. And that’s it. That’s what it’s good for: filling in gaps. Now stop acting like it’s a fucking paradigm shift, you dopey bloody ding-dongs. Anyway, speaking of AI…

The Skynet Award for Most Spookily Overpowered AI Tool... … This years goes to Pixverse, an AI video generator that I find genuinely a little scary. There’s a free tier that lets you generate a couple of videos a day, and it’s an absolute trip. I’ve been mucking about with this stuff for fun for a couple of years now, and this thing honestly caught me off guard: it can maintain consistent characters and art styles, work from still images instead of just text without sacrificing movement, and whatever LLM it’s using to interpret prompts is freakishly good at working out what I want compared to earlier generators. It can even extend the video-clips it spits out into longer, more detailed mini-videos, though the detail and graphical fidelity do suffer after a couple of extensions. Now, can you do anything useful with it? Fuck no. It would be insane to try making a movie or something using this, unless (once again) you’re just filling in some gaps that would otherwise be plugged with traditional CGI. It’s not about to revolutionise anything is the point. But is it a really fun toy to play around with? Yes. Yes it is. Plus, I guess I can use it to cobble together a short video advertising my next book…

The Half-Price LSD Award For Best Use of Your Money… … Goes to Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, which was well worth the price of a cinema ticket. Actually, that’s really selling it short, so let me try again: this was probably the most fun I’ve had at the pictures this year. It reminded me what going to the movies used to feel like, before every fucking thing to slop out of Hollywood started taking itself too seriously, replacing wit with ‘irony’, or pitching its tent on one side of the other of the culture war (fuck off, I’m not capitalising something that idiotic). It was just a really fun movie made by people who clearly know a lot about making movies and were basically given the kind of budget the original flick would have killed for. Sorry, there’s not many jokes here: it’s just a good movie and deserved a shout-out.

The ‘Going for a Shit and Laying a Quail’s Egg Instead’ Award for Most Confusing Disappointment… … Goes to the new Labour Government that my country recently voted in. They’re clearly, clearly a vast improvement over the Tories, simply by dint of the fact they kinda know what they’re doing and a full-sized human turd in a party-hat would be a vast improvement over the Tories. That said, they haven’t exactly been looking out for people the way a Labour Government is supposed to: they’ve cut fuel credits to the elderly and have farted about refusing to cancel other benefit cuts threatened by the previous administration. It’s all a bit sad and disappointing. Still, at least they’ve put up the minimum wage. A bit. So yay?

The ‘Mahatma Gandhi Molesting a Pie’ Award for Most WTF Sex Allegation… … Goes to Neil Gaiman, or possibly to the allegations made about him by assorted fans and ex-partners. According to those allegations, he engaged in the sexual abuse of various women in the more recent years of his career and, at one point, tried to straight-up rape his baby-sitter (EDIT: I’ve just read that sentence back, and should explain that I mean his son’s babysitter. 64 year old Neil Gaiman doesn’t, at this stage, still require babysitting). He also made a lot of people call him ‘Master’, but that isn’t actually a crime: that’s just insisting on the acknowledgement of your academic credentials, much as Doctor Evil didn’t spend six years at Evil Medical School to be called ‘Mister’. Gaiman’s defence against the allegations is interesting: while he outright denies some of them, others he says did happen but were fully consensual, which would mean absolutely nothing, except that he apparently has the text-messages to prove it archived on his phone. Text messages between two consenting adults looking forward to doing it all again. Except, of course, he doesn’t have text messages or alibis for all the accusations. So… did Neil molest some people but not others, leading to a situation where jurors will one day have to sift through reams of allegations to sort out the genuine from the exaggerated, distorted or falsified? Did he do all of it and somehow contrive to trick some of his victims into sexting him as protection from future legal proceedings? Is he actually completely innocent – a victim of his own renown so that, once the bandwagon got rolling, a lot of people wanted to jump on it? That’s really beyond the scope of this blog to answer. The real point of this ‘award’ (is that even the right word at this point?) is to take a moment to appreciate how bizarre and unlikely the current state of affairs is. I mean, it’s Neil fucking Gaiman, the most milquetoast, overly-polite, liberal opinion-haver on the internet! Neil fucking Gaiman, who wrote The Sandman, which is probably the greatest graphic novel series of all time. Neil fucking Gaiman, who spends half his time on Tumblr encouraging people to ‘make good art’. Whether he Did The Thing or not, the mere fact he’s been accused is monumentally surreal. It’s like waking up one morning to find out that Keanu Reeves has been accused of shitting in pensioners’ birthday cakes for fun and profit (although, to be clear, Keanu Reeves definitely hasn’t done that).

The Arriving Late and Being Shunned by Civilised Society Award… ...Goes to this blog entry, which I honestly did start writing in 2024. It’s now 2025. And that’s embarrassing.

Until next time I can be bothered to write something, go forth into the world and be yourselves. Do whatever makes you happy. Unless it involves shitting in cakes or sexual misconduct. Don’t do those things. Neil, I’m looking at you: I REPEAT, DON’T DO THOSE THINGS.

10 Ways to Recognise Your Students with Inclusive End of Year Awards in the UK

As the end of the school year approaches, it is essential to acknowledge the accomplishments and efforts of all students. Inclusive end-of-year awards provide an excellent opportunity to celebrate the diverse talents and achievements of every student. This article presents ten ways in which educational institutions in the UK can recognize their students inclusively, ensuring that no student is…

[starry-bi-sky]

do yall ever think about bruce/batman!clone danny standing in front of his bathroom mirror after finding out he was a clone and silently tracing his face. The slope of his jaw and point of his chin. The high angle of his cheekbones and the shape of his eyes, the curve of his brow bones and the shape of his nose. The volume of his hair and the way it curls and gets fluffy when it gets too long.

His hair is black the same way a crow's wing is black. His dad's hair is black the same way a black bear's fur is black. His dad's eyes are blue like the ocean is blue. Danny's eyes are blue the same way a glacier is blue.

His dad has a square jaw and straight flat hair, and he tans and gets a face full of freckles when he's out in the sun for too long. Danny burns like a lobster and his face remains untouched. Danny has a sharp jaw and tall cheekbones, and Sam says when he's not smiling there's almost something regal about him. You would never call Jack Fenton "regal" when he's not smiling.

Sam says when he's not smiling he looks scary the same way a stone statue is. Jack Fenton when he's not smiling looks scary the same way that german shepherd staring at you across the street is.

Do you ever think he grew up wondering if he was adopted. Because of course, he has black hair and blue eyes like his dad. But having the same color doesn't make you someone's child.

Or, worse, things he's heard from the other kids and the other parents and even some of his teachers growing up; that he was the product of an affair. And that his dad was just too stupid to notice. And Danny would defend his parents until the day he died, because Jack Fenton wasn't an idiot and Maddie Fenton wasn't a cheater.

But doubt comes in with fickle tongue. his parents swear up and down that he is their child when he asks about either. That Danny just had his grandparents' features, but he was their son and they loved him.

But Danny doesn't look like either of his parents. His mom's eyes are blue like an aquamarine and Jazz's too. And they burn like lobsters in the sun too, but Jazz gets freckles on her face and so does Maddie. And as Danny grows up he doesn't bulk up or get stocky like his dad did, and when he hits puberty he doesn't shoot up like a tree like Jack Fenton did.

He stays small, and they say he's a late bloomer (and he is), or that he just has his mom's height. But he's fast and has good stamina, and some days it feels like he's built entirely different from his family. That the things they went through growing up just didn't apply to him. Jack and Maddie Fenton both had acne and breakouts when they hit puberty, and Jazz inherits it and he's seen the amount of skincare products she keeps on her side of the bathroom.

And then he hits puberty and breaks out maybe once or twice, but his skin stays clear for the most part and the problems and changes his dad went through just don't happen to him.

And the truth is worse than all of the lies.

How horrifying.

Best 23 of BL 2023 - Quirky Awards

SHOCK & AWE AWARDS

1. Biggest BL surprise of 2023:

The last 3 months of 2023 in general got my biggest WTF award.

GMMTV fielding OffGun AND TayNew in the same quarter while also airing Last Twilight

That they ALSO optioned 3 JBLs

That there's a high heat omegaverse BL staring Pavel

That there were 20 BLs airing and none of them Korean.

With 5 VAMPIRE BLs announced for next year

But my prize in this category goes to My Dear Gangster Oppa.

It's just crazy:

Thai talent, Korean money + IP (this is adapted from a manwha) airing on a Chinese channel (iQIYI). Plus it was FUN and made smart reuse of a pair who richly deserved it. I'm delighted by the eclectic insanity of this production. And wonder if any other film genre could even do anything like this.

2. The “that country did WHAT?” award:

The 8th Sense from Korea?!

I mean, seriously?! Dealing with mental health, suicide, darkness, therapy, (tiny) age gap, & first time love BUT FROM KOREA? And then openness and casual boyfriend physical affection? What's next? An actual hard fought coming out narrative with an HEA? Gay domesticity and families?

Careful Korea, you'll strain something. Possibly your own culture and film industry.

I should stop having expectations of Korea, they keep surprising me.

Runners up: Korea letting OnlyOneOf do Bump Up Business not to mention that OmegaX thing. AND Korea adapting Why R U? What are you up to, Korea? Qua? Is this a coded message? Should we send help? Do you need snacks?

3. Biggest casting whoa! where did you come from? award:

GeminiFourth in My School President.

Seriously? Babies what? How did GMMTV find you? How do you exist? How is BL this lucky?

4. That studio did WHAT now? award:

GMMTV putting EarthMix into Moonlight Chicken.

And then doubling down with G4 as the damn sides.

Fucking genius.

5. I’m sad you were ignored award:

Destiny Seeker.

It's just a really fun little Thai pulp, the pairs were good, silly dialogue, plus consent and other good sex rep. I enjoyed it. No one talked about it AT ALL.

6. 2023 BL That Actually Made Me Lose My Mind Award?

Laws of Attraction. -The casting, the crazy story, the soapy drama! But specifically: Film playing Charn - the range of his smiles alone. GLORIOUS

I mean I Feel You Linger in the Air also sparked something in me, but LoA drove me actually nuts.

NARRATIVE AWARDS

7. Best story 2023:

La Pluie

I know, you're surprised, right? At the time I didn't chat much about it but I really enjoyed the discourse others were having. I love anything that really examines the fated mates (soulmates) trope and the idea of "the one". What a clever way to do that. (This is one reason UWMA is my favorite Thai BL.)

This one reminded me of the way Color Rush approached allegory and that's no bad thing. Such an impressive little piece.

8. Best narrative structure 2023 award:

Unintentional Love Story.

I know this may seem a simplistic pick. But I love the tidiness of this no frills contemporary romance, how the culture of work and personal ethics and corruption fight against the main character's affection and integrity. Poor baby boy is driven into a corner and then punished for it. But it is punishment he feels he deserves, and so it is up to his (now) ex to figure out what went wrong and why.

It's just great. I love it when no one is stupid or wrong, it's just impossible circumstances and unintentional love deeply felt.

9. Best 2023 dialogue (script) award:

Jun & Jun

Never before has Korea laced a BL with that much perfectly executed innuendo. It was a master class. I didn't know you could be that lascivious in Korean, quite frankly. Plus the way the 2 Juns constantly seamlessly transition between formal register (work, public - where they are boss/employee) to informal register (when they are alone and age mates + childhood sweethearts).

Beautiful to hear and watch.

10. Favorite scene 2023:

The dub con scene in I Cannot Reach You because I AM TRASH for an out of control seme. I'm sorry I just AM.

I have said it before, I will say it again, NO ONE DOES THIRST like Japan. And when that thirst bubbles over, it is heart-clenching and very hot.

11. The most rewatchable BL of 2023 award:

Our Dating Sim

That scene where they lie on the floor + the stolen kiss + giggle? Come on, it should be on comfort repeat in war rooms. It could bring world peace.

ACTORS & CHARACTERS AWARDS

12. Best performance of a queer actor in a leading role, 2023:

Fluke in Make a Wish.

It was fun to see him as an irreverent immortal and while I love OhmFluke I also really enjoyed this new pairing. It was a genuine pleasure to watch.

13. Best pining 2023:

The moot pining in Tokyo in April is...

Boys, seriously? Japan must you destroy us like this? Hurts so good.

14. Best wingman 2023 (The Namgoong Award)

Tiw from My School President

I mean, come on, of course it's him!

(Also can you believe Mark went on from this to do fricking Only Friends!? To Last Twilight! Come on GMMTV GIVE HIM A LEAD!)

15. Biggest OMG I LOVE you boys together, YAY!

Dimpled McMafia & Feral Bunny Foo Foo from Kiseki Dear to Me.

They were feral for each other.

We were feral for them

It was a whole delightful THING.

16. Most unexpected return of a BL pair? award:

The Private Lessons pair showing up in Love Class 2.

I know it was only a cameo, but SERIOUSLY? Thank you SO MUCH Korea! A big studio picking up a Strongberry pairing? I love you.

Seriously tho, Taiwan & Korea tried for ALL THE CAMEOS this year.

17. Well aren't you two just the prettiest? award:

NetJames in Bed Friend.

Need I say more?

18. LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD

Bah Vinh in Vian & Mr Cinderella 2. I didn't like either show but I loved him in them. Especially the make outs.

Yes you have chemistry with all the boys in Vietnam and you kiss beautifully. But it's okay now honey, you have the crown. Relax, you're stressing us out.

RANDOM PICKS

19. Favorite Linguistic Moment of 2023:

Our Dating Sim

Caught in the act by the elevator scene. OMG it's so funny. They're being such boyfriend shits to each other, and to be caught in the act by THAT character, and try to manifest formal language whole cloth? Hilarious.

Honorable mention to War Peanuts in Destiny Seeker.

20. Biggest disappointment of 2023:

You Are Mine

Seriously Taiwan, AGAIN you disappoint me with an Office BL? You're Taiwan, land of offices and suits. This should be YOUR SETTING TO WIN. And yet... argh. I mean it wasn't bad. But it wasn't good either. Stop it Taiwan, do better.

Runners up? Between Us, Chains of Heart, Dangerous Romance - this was a HOTLY contested category.

+ 2 Winners in the sub-category of FUCK YOU FOR THAT ENDING award:

The Director who Buys Me Dinner - I mean this nicely but: you have your lane now Korea, stop hurting us, that's Japan's responsibility and they do it better.

I Feel You Linger In the Air - I'm just hugely disappointed. Thailand ALMOST got its second 10/10 from me, but that damn ending.

Argh.

21. Best Wardrobe/Prop Use 2023

The shower of packaged bedsheets in My Personal Weatherman

Amazing. Brilliant. No notes.

22. Best Queer Rep 2023

Chot in Step By Step

In fact, all the queer characters in this show were treated with great integrity.

AND props to this cast for refusing to do fan service. GOOD FOR YOU! Fuck those sasang wankers.

Runners up? The found family cast of Love in Translation and the Rainbow Rice Cakes in The New Employee.

23. Best Meta Trope call out

Tin Tem Jai

Come on, what a zinger, but at themselves (and Taiwan)

Final question: which of the 23 was the hardest for me to pick?

Honestly? Question #1 this year. But also question #20.

(Last year: 2022's Version) 

Remember I only pull from shows that were completely finished by the end of 2023. Or The Sign probably would have taken multiple categories. But it will fall into 2024 offerings.

Notes from the ep 15 sex scene after my 10th rewatch 👩‍🏫👩‍⚕️👩‍💻👩‍🔬

hongjo giggling in the doorway and acting all shy like sweety YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE DOING TO HIM

the way he went from cute and clumsy to AMBUSHING HER 👁👄👁

for a giraffe he's quite wolfish in his table manners 😏😏

PINNED AGAINST THE WALL, GOD IS GOOD

WHY WAS THAT CURSED LIGHT SWITCH RIGHT THERE

[wet kissing noises]

THOSE 6'2/187CMs ENGULFING HER

he started unbuttoning her almost immediately, (the shirt DOES look better on the floor, shinyu, u ARE absolutely correct)

the horny-cute gasp of "wait a minute [we should do it on the dresser, follow me"] WE LOVE A WOMAN WHO SHOWS INITIATIVE

the way hongjo backed up against the dresser and shinyu followed her like she was his preyyy

she was smiling but he was on a MISSION TO GET BETWEEN THEM THIGHS

he lifted her up on the dresser like it was nothing 🥵🥵🥵

hooded eyes, jaw clenched, heavy breathing 🌶🌶🌶🌶 10/10

they both looked like they were just lost in the sounds and sensations like literally blissfully unaware of anything outside that room

god bless u and your hard work in the gym, rowoon, is that a 12-pack (thanks for zooming in on the ahem scar camera crew)

the way they cooperated in stripping shinyu's shirt off him, TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK

his hands doing SOMETHING outside of the frame whatttt are they doingggg

him kissing her hard and pushing her down 😌😌🙌🥂

shinyu's big hand flexing on hongjo's thigh and calf like YES SIR, GRAB IT

hongjo grasping two fistfuls of his hair to keep him where she wanted him YES QUEEN

him helping her wrap her legs around him 🥵🥵🥵🍿🍿🍿🍷🍷

the final shot of hongjo's shirt slipping off her shoulders and him moving on top of her in a pose not dissimilar to dracula and mina's in that One Scene in the garden in bram stoker's dracula

they were feraaalll

no for real he might actually be part beast

no wonder because shinyu/mujin waited 300+ years to Do That
