BETWEEN US EPISODE 11

[thebroccolination]

WINTEAM’S NOVEL “HEMP ROPE” NOW HAS AN OFFICIAL TRANSLATION

The novel that inspired Between Us is incredible and covers some crucial things (like therapy!) that the series didn’t include for whatever reason. This is by far my favorite of the Thai BL novels I’ve read.

And it’s available now on MEB!

So... if Dean and Pharm are a red thread and Win and Team are a hemp rope... does that mean Tul and Waan are an ethernet cord?

Between Us EP.4

[chibipandaao3]

I saw someone say Between Us is not a plot based show - it’s character based. And yes, 1000%

But more than that, it’s not a plot based show it’s a character driven behind the scenes look at Win and Team from UWMA. These two stories are interconnected (obviously) in a way that makes the plot exist heavily in UWMA and (for WinTeam) the character driven story and growth occur in Between Us.

UWMA is happening in the background, but Win and Team exist outside of that story and Between Us is that existence; that secondary space.

Their love story is (in some ways) messier than Pharm and Dean because fate isn’t involved - Win and Team have no deep previous connection. They hooked up on a swim trip and the next thing they knew Team had a safe place and Win had found the first person who was reluctant to take what he’d give AND willing to give in return.

Between Us is like the best of the fanfic world. It’s taking two beloved characters and giving them life behind the camera, in the spaces we haven’t really seen before. It doesn’t need the corny troupes or the redundant plot points that always exist in dramas (though it has some) because the world these characters live in has already done that.

That rain scene was so damn emotional but necessary Team is literally at his lowest point and all he wants is to be with Win because thats who he feels the safest with

And Team trusting Win enough to tell him what happened is such a huge step for both of them as well because it shows how much Team trusts him and helps Win understand him better

BounPrem absolutely did their shit in this scene the emotion that was put into it was executed perfectly

Overall the whole scene was really beautiful

[acehowes]

I imagine that Win goes to Tul's room to talk to him and finds him in his room just SOBBING. hand clutching his shirt over his chest and bawling his eyes out.

Then they talk and Win helps/knows that Tul is gonna go to the resort for Waan.

I am emotionally attached. I will never get over it. Never. I refuse to believe that this series was anything but perfection. Everything, was perfect. The healthiest, most realistic, couples that could ever have been formed. WinTeam, PharmDean, ManaowPhruek, BeePrince, WaanTul. Absolutely divine. I swear to god, I have not seen such a beautiful thing in ages. It was so light hearted and easy to watch, yet such a deep meaning and beautiful connection was formed.

CONSENT. ALL THE COUPLES SHOW CONSENT. THIS IS PROBABLY THE FIRST SERIES WHERE CONSENT HAS BEEN ASKED FIR EXPLICITLY FROM BOTH SIDES IN THE RELATIONSHIP.

I swear it is so beautiful, so emotional, so heartfelt. I recommend all people of the world to watch "Between Us".

Go watch it people. Show some love.

I realized this morning that when Team meets Win’s mother in the novel, she’s immediately charmed by him and effectively adopts him on the spot.

The novel doesn’t show any of WanTul’s development, but I’m wildly fixated on the standard Team’s unknowingly set for Tul and how it’s going to ruin his life.

“Mae, this is Team. He’s training to become a professional athlete with aspirations to compete in the Olympics.”

“…This is Tul. He punched a dragon last night. Twice.”

WHAT IS THIS?!?!???

Makes Win Feel Wanted

So this is something that has bothered me since Between Us debuted. People online screaming “well, when is Team going to do something?” “The synopsis says that Team makes Win feel wanted, but we’ve never seen him do anything,” blah blah blah.

It’s Team. Team is what makes Win fell wanted. Not what Team “does” — Team existing as himself. There’s no magical moment or action, it’s Team being himself and allowing Win to care for him.

That’s it.

Win lack of feeling wanted prior to the beginning of the show is directed linked to his placement in his family. He’s not the eldest, meaning the expectations are less — sure — but he is also FIRST at nothing. Waan’s done all the good and all the bad before Win. He’s also not the youngest, he isn’t the perfect younger child who gets away from with stuff and who has limited expectations suffocating his every decision.

Win is in perpetual limbo. He’s going to help with the family business mostly because that’s what Waan is doing and so that Wiew doesn’t have to. Not because he’s wanted or needed.

Dean is Win’s best friend, no one can deny that. But Dean isn’t searching for Win — and Win is well aware that once Dean finds the person he’s endlessly waiting for Win becomes, at best, a third wheel. And at worst, forgotten.

So, no it isn’t an action that Team was supposed to do or a thing he was supposed yo say — it’s not him begging of crying — it is his existing and letting Win exist with and care for him.

So many people seem to have missed that entirely. Not everything has to be written or shown explicitly to be true.
