[umiwomitai]

so im seeing dreamcatcher in a week

[inventedfangirling]

Hello this is basically a long post about me sorting through my feelings about bad buddy and why it means so much to me.

So over the past few weeks ( i first watched the show 7 weeks ago) ive been trying to figure out what exactly about bad buddy and patpran in particular have got me so inexplicably fond and devoted to them and apart from the usual answers of great writing, directing, performances and the best most electric chemistry and banter known to humankind, i did arrive at couple of other answers too.

First of all pat and (especially) pran are deep and well rounded characters.

Their worlds feel lived in and real.

Their feelings and thoughts and motivations are of course excellently portrayed by both ohm and nanon. and they gave representation to queer people everywhere. pat being the pan/ bi king he is and pran being the gayest babyboy warrior poet ever. pran especially given his repressed nature and emotional closed-off-ness is somebody a lot of people surely saw themselves in, including myself. seeing myself represented like that starting off the way he is and then taking small steps one by one over the course of the whole show (and over years in the show's universe) to arrive at the more assured, more open, more ready to be vulnerable (but still very much the pran we all loved in the first episode itself) was so wonderful to see.

The fact that the show happens in a non homophobic universe doesnt take away from just how special it was seeing queer characters fall, be and stay in love. and most importantly that they got their happy ending (i wont be hearing anything against this cos the ending was happy, despite the slightly bittersweet tinge of it, it was happy and there shall be no counter arguments begone i cant with that)

That episode 12 gave a glimpse of their future.

A world where pat will one day be able to sit with pran in his house eating food made by dissaya. that pran and pat's mom work on a common hobby together cos why not. a world where they no longer have to hide, a world were they could well and truly thrive.

Its so so important as queer people that we get representation and that in a world that is often cruel to the likes of us especially here in asia, that we see happy adult queer lives, where they can be in love in the most mundane of ways.

Patpran and bad buddy gave us that and i will forever be thankful for it.

That still doesn't capture exactly why i rate them as a couple so so highly in my head.

So i thought of patpran in the context of all the other love stories i could possibly remember watching. i thought of some of my top favourite couples - mondler, phil & claire, schmidt & cece, peraltiago, leslie & ben, jack & rebecca, randall & beth, simon & wilhelm, jaeyong & sangwoo, ji hyun & jaewon, bai lang & xun an, tara & darcy, sumi & rimjhim and so so many more and what stood out for me when it came to patpran was that they were the one couple out of all these couples i adore who didnt let anything get between them once they got together.

Every other couple among the ones ive listed have had jobs or other relationships or distance or parents or workplace rules /etiquette or circumstances or the royalty standing in between their love and as a result causing the couple to break apart ( a couple of episodes for mondler to seasons of confusion for peraltiago and schmidt & cece etc) even if briefly.

Except for phil & claire (who btw wasnt even sure about marrying phil when she did) almost none of these couples got together and stayed together throughout their relationship. and yes i agree that a lot of these obstacles and circumstances are very real and taxing and no wonder people chose their own peace at least for a while to deal with everything BUT i just cant help feel more appreciative of pat pran even more cos these two 19 year olds figured this whole thing out faster than any of those full grown adults did.

And yes its fictional and maybe even unrealistic (given the kind of relationships i see irl) yet patpran really do deserve all the love they get. they do deserve a lot of props.

Its not like they didn't have adverse obstacles standing in their way, they had to fight against their families years and years of lies and all the intergenerational trauma and their faculty rivalry and a shitty friend who outed them and any single one of these should have caused at least 12 episodes worth of conflict and miscommunication in any other couple.

And yes i do recognise that bbs didnt have the luxury of time or multiple seasons but they could have kept them apart for a whole episode at least, i was convinced we were in for that at the end of episode 8 as the aftermath of wai outing them. like there is no way the relationship comes out of it unscathed ( i thought! ). and while im sure they personally were rattled and betrayed (pran more so), instead of blaming anybody else or each other they actually chose to handle it together, they worked together and chose to move forward together.

The fact that such a terrible experience instead of breaking them apart actually reaffirmed to both pat and pran just how much their relationship means to the both of them, that they come out of it actually stronger??

i was friggin shook to my core.

And then came the gunshots and the family finding out and the running away and the coming back and the fake breakup and the pressures of all of this should have been enough to drive a serious wedge between any two characters, especially at their age and lack of experience. and yet??? and yet at each obstacle they get up, they draw the other closer and they get down to working on it together again.

Over and over and over and over again.

So for me what separates patpran from everybody else is the fact that ever since they got together, they have chosen eo, intentionally, that has made the difference.

Pat and pran's story may have been destined ( i personally don't know if i believe in destiny). they may have been born neighbours and felt unexplainable intense feelings (that later turned to love) for the other but when it came down to it, at its core, bad buddy soars when the two come together and they choose to keep being together, despite everything that stands in their way.

Love is a choice. love is a sacrifice. but its also a sacrifice and a choice they made for themselves and for each other and above all for their relationship.

Almost all the couples mentioned above arrive at similar destinations but they arrive at it with years of experience and years of struggle. i just cant help marvel at our teenagers who did love better than whole ass adults double their age could.

And more importantly above the awe i feel inspired and hopeful because they showed me that there's always a choice. thats there's always another option. you dont need to get out of your comfort zone. but you also dont need to be in the comfort zone always. you dont need to keep lying to yourself. you dont need to hide every single part of you. there are always other options. there is always a choice.

That hope is not just a noun its also very much a verb. That you and i and each one of us can make that choice.

That if ever i choose to partner up with someone and if we do proper healthy communication (patpran invented healthy communication and consent btw, they deserve EVERYTHING for just that but thats a whole other post) prioritizing the relationship where it mattered, i too could have something ( even remotely) like their love.

For the first time in my life probably i felt like that kind of love was attainable for me if i wanted to pursue it. They gave me hope. and they gave me joy. and i will never not be unbelievably grateful for it.

[yixiangs]

omg project 7... i refuse to watch it (boys planet taught me survival shows will change my brain chemistry and ruin my life) but i do have picks im rooting for, namely jingxiang, yeojun, hyunjae, and yichen--wbu 👀

the dopamine survival shows give me always outweighs the dread they bring me im addicted to the thrill of them i fear (i just hate myself)

idk if i have any solid picks yet tbh. i definitely have a slight bias towards the guys ive already seen before (bopeul guys, sihun, lee hanbin for some reason even though i dont stan fantasy boys??), but theres no one that sticks out to me yet like junhyeon or any of my bp picks did.

there are some other people im keeping my eyes on though! minwook, jaewon, jiwoon, and junwon are people my eyes keep lingering on so i feel like one of them might end up as a pick. i started the show really liking what i saw of andy and atilla on tiktok but i found out theyre 07 liners so i wont be voting for them (even though theyre really good!!), but im definitely looking forward to seeing what they do in the future

[piganatur]

*nervous chuckle* yeah tension is good and all but if they give me a sequel to seo jaewon getting kim jihyun into that wetsuit only to virtually peel him out of it with his gaze alone im ascending and it wont be so sexy for me anymore

[junjiie]

ASSHSSHS YOU LIKE JAEWON! YAYY ٩(^ᗜ^ )و your special (ily bestie westie) i'm just gonna give you a bunch of random jaewon lore fact thingies because your his no.1 fan (real!!)

um number one!!! jaewon was like a super controversial figure during produce x 101 because this man literally says ANYTHING and he cursed like every two seconds (me) and he was SUCH a controversial figure that most korean netizens hated him and started a petition to get him kicked off the show 😭 his controversy was mostly the reason he didn't win 2nd place and was instead booted down to sixth

number two!!! jaewon dated one of his former x1 members and when they broke up the two of them.. well— they kind of got into an ugly argument 🤗! idk if you know anything about x1 but i wont give any hints because i wanna keep that a mystery!! oh and hanbin is pretty jealous because now the two of them are mending their relationship haha drama!!

number three!!! jaewon's parents like- suck ass, i'm not even joking, like they're so horrible that he ran away not once, not twice, but FIVE TIMES just to get away from them cause they really are that bad 😭 (these people should've not had kids), he successfully ran away for good in 2017 when he joined cube entertainment and he hasn't talked to them at all ever since then, they still leave a longlasting mental affect on him because of their emotional abuse though (sorry but trauma!)

number four!!! jaewon and hanbin are a thing…? or are they…? trust me atp they have absolutely no idea what they are 😭 literally EVERYONE knows they like each other but they kinda just let shit happen..? do they like each other? 100%. but they just kinda sit by and just.. go with the flow. will they ever confess? eh.

and lastly, number five!!! a much cuter one that isnt as confusing, jaewon was nicknamed "sleeping koala" because he often clings onto people when he sleeps, like whenever he falls asleep he'll reach out at the first person literally unconsciously and just cling onto them while he sleeps. (he was a stuffed animal kid can you tell?)

um…… yeah! i'll probably make a longer thing abt jaewon facts because theres actually SO MUCH MORE i have to explain when it comes to jaewon because hes a mess (and is currently having a sexuality crisis) so there'll def be a longer post about jaewon 😭

ik you didnt ask for this but anyway ily bestie westie have a great day <333 (i have school tmrw save me)

I AM HIS #1 UR SO RIGHT.. and omg thank u for these HELLO??! eating them all up in three bites and patting my tummy and shit

two - omg drama hii i love that.. ur right ik jack shit ab x1 BYR . let me look them up and make a guess at who it is though........... hyeongjun ? ! ? Am i right

three - EWW BEATS THEM UP AND SETS THEM ON FIRE AND KILLS THEM??! at least he got away though good for him omg . Pats him on the head ☹️

four - Aww gay opeple ❤️ Locks them in a room 4 ever. jaebin 5th generation it couple-not-couple

👀 one thing you wish you could tell vera?

when he closes his eyes, he can still pictureher, still spot the lines on her face, the indentations of a history filled tothe brim with close encounters, scarred with laughter from too many late-nightconversations, bruised by all three suns, freckled and splintered in an extraordinaryway that one would never be able to call ugly. there’s never been anything uglyabout the woman who’d raised him, her wrinkles and frown lines only lendingthemselves to the tapestry of her life, years stacked on years of arduousliving, of vivacious living, of intended living— and so few people in the versesurvive as long as she did, through as much as she did, with as much convictionas she had.

jaewon would consider himself a damn miracleif he could reach half her stature, despite having been taller than her sincehe was fifteen.

she hadn’t said goodbye to his face when sheknew she was dying, understood how difficult that would be for the both of them,for him in particular, but she’d left him a message, a video recording that hestill watches and re-watches every once in a while, her words brandingthemselves inside his head deeper than any bullet wound ever could. he sets iton repeat as he cleans his guns once a week, listens to it as background noisewhile he falls asleep occasionally, plays it over and over inside his headwhenever he’s fiddling with notes on his guitar. the contents of the messageare private, his alone and no one else’s; that pain is only for him, and he’snot willing to part with it, not willing to share. he doesn’t talk about it tothe rest of the crew, doesn’t expound on it, doesn’t describe it; as far as heknows, the only people who knew she made testimonials before she passed are saitoand henry, both of which know not to press him on the subject.

but he still sees her. still listens to her.she tells him to fight hard, to run fast, to take control. she tells him to bea good captain, worthy of his mantel, worthy of their ship, of this beautifulmetal contraption they’d both fallen in love with, their home. worthy of trust, worthy offire, and all the ghosts who cling to his ankles— if they howl his name, shetells him it is because he needs to continue life enough for all of them, andher as well now.

she tells him to be wild, to survive untamed,to breathe deep, to fly, to drive, to ride, to live, to live, to live.

the pause between the question and the answerspans halfway across the galaxy, but when he speaks, the syllables shine likestardust. “i’d just tell her… i’m taking care of serenity… and i won’t let go.”

Paradis, please listen to the last anon. I really did enjoy reading it was an accident. Please dont feel discouraged at the fact that not many people are reading the fic. I know it can feel frustrating that you spend all this time writing just so that nobody reads it but please continue to do so. I really want to know how Jaewon and Melissa will get on with their university experience and how Dean will come into the equation and fuck shit up. Don't give up paradis ❤

I've just noticed that a lot of people like looking at pictures/text instead of actually reading fics. That's why all of my text fics get more attention, but a lot of people dont understand that I cant make every story into a text because then it just wont make sense lol. Even when doing the Wonjae fanfic, I feel like if it was a written story, it would be so much easier because there are certain events and scenarios that I cant put in the texts (hence why I started making the previews)and i would have maybe finished the fanfic in like 5 or 10 chapters 😂 but thank you for this lovely message, I'll consider doing it very soon (if I dont get any busier) thank you so much for reading it so far though 💕

[randomkpopfaketexts]

IT WOULD BE A LIE IF I SAID I WAS READY I NEED CAPS TO EXPRESS MY FEELINGS URGH so I guess Jaewon wont give up that easily? Or maybe do something bad? And, dude, I live for protective older brother Yuta!! As I already told you before ahhhh!! And the chapter was so long!! It was so good to wake up to this !! And that KISS I needed it and BOOM ! Lol btw I can imagine Lucas being such. A Flirt but when you kiss him or go with his flirting and flirt back he becomes so blushy and cute 😂 I LOVED IT

Jaewon is definitely an obstacle. And the upcoming chapters will come to prove that. Tbh she isn’t inherently bad, she’s just selfish and never takes into consideration that what she says and does affects other people. She cares about the reader, just... doesn’t see how she hurt her. ALSO I LIVE FOR OLDER BROTHER YUTA!!! AND GOOFY FLIRTY LUCAS AND SHY LUCAS🤧🤧❤️❤️❤️

It was an accident pt.5 (M)

Prev - Next

Genre: Angst, romance, drama

Rated mature: strong language, suggestive content, violence

Main characters: Melissa (reader), One/Jae (Jaewon), Dean

(Jaewon's pov)

I woke up very early because I need to be one of the first people in class today, because on the first day of uni, I had noticed that beautiful girl was the very first person in class. I have to go early and apologise for busting her lip. I just hope that she let’s me speak to her when we see each other. I just hope that she doesn’t skip classes today, because I heard that today's classes are very important and I don’t want her to fall behind in her studies. I finish getting ready and rush out of my room for a quick breakfast so that I head out for lectures. Again, Hwimin and Gyujeong are sleeping in and will probably come to class late so I might as well just leave without them. Our lecturer also emailed us saying that he moved us in a classroom so I have to find my way there.

~10 minutes later~

I finally get to the front doors of the lecture workshop, heart beating, palms sweating and my legs a wobbling before entering the class because as much as I want to speak and apologise to the pretty girl, I don’t know what to say and how to start the conversation. What if she’s not even in class today? What if she’s holding a grudge for busting her lip? Anyways, let me not think of the negatives and let’s just enter class. As soon as I opened the door, I started scanning for that pretty girl, a d before I could even see her, I could smell her lovely scented perfume from the front of the class.

“YES! She’s in class today" I exclaimed in my head. Her hair beautifully done and face so angelic made my heart go crazy again. Everything about her is on point.

I made my way to the back of the classroom where she is seated, so that I can start a conversation with her.

“ Hey, is this seat taken?”

“ Umm, hi. No, you can sit here if you want" she says as she lifts up her head from the magazines with a surprised smile as I caught her off guard.

After I sat down, it was really silent and awkward again. She continued to read her magazines while I was thinking of how to start the conversation.

“ So -" we both expressed unexpectedly

“No, you go first” I said.

“ Okay, so I was wondering if you’re feeling better now. You know....your head.” She says, as she motions her head.

“ Oh yeah, it got better thank you for asking.... but what about you? Are you okay now? Because you know...your lip" I motioned her lip as I said that.

“ Yeah” *giggles* “its fine now, thanks for asking" she says with a warm smile.

“ Hey, I’ve been thinking about this for a long time.”

“ Thinking about what?” she says with raised eyebrows, confused.

“ Thinking about apologising to you for hurting you. I made your lips bleed” I said apologetically.

“ Hey, it’s fine. It was an accident. Accidents happen all the time, it’s not like you did it on purpose” she says as she giggles. “I forgive you" she smiles.

She’s so cute

“Thank you for forgiving me. Sorry for not introducing myself. My name is Jaewon, but people call me ONE. What about you? What’s your name?

“ My name is Melissa, nice to meet you again Jaewon" she says with a wide smile while giving her hand to me for me to shake.

“Nice to see you again too, Melissa.” I say while taking her soft hands to shake.

As soon as we both shook hands, we were no longer alone. Our class mates had entered class and began to sit down.

“Welcome back to Advertising class, ladies and gents. Right, so today’s lesson is very important yet very short so listen up carefully because I won’t repeat it again. So assignment 1, there are 8 non profit charities and they all need help with their social media accounts. I want you guys to be their social media consultants. I want you guys to build a relationship with your clients, research popular social media sites, what they should post and when they should post. Is this assignment okay with everyone?”

“YES" the whole class expressed.

“ Good. Now I want you all in 8 groups of 4. So please get yourselves in groups of 4. I’ll give you guys 20 minutes.” Jonathan rushed.

“Hey Melissa, do you want to be in a group with me?” I ask her.

“Yeah sure, I’d love to. But please, I want no slackers in our group. I don’t want bad grades fro any of my classes.” She says with a serious expression.

“ Yeah sure, let’s look for serious candidates” I giggle to make the atmosphere a bit more friendly.

~10 minutes later~

“ 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Everyone stop!” Jonathan shouts. “ is anyone missing any group members? I noticed there’s not a lot of people in class today"

“Me and Jaewon are missing 2 more people in our group" Melissa says.

“Yeah us too" two more groups explain.

“Hmm, okay. You guys can be a duos for now, I will email everyone that is missing from class to tell them that there are 3 incomplete groups left. But for now, please choose the charity of your choice and get to work and email me what 2 charities you want and why you want to consult them. Out of the two charities you choose, I will then pick one from your selection that suits you better. Okay? Okay, you are all dismissed" Jonathan says as he walks out of the class leaving us all discombobulated.

Everyone else from class decided to leave for their next lectures or to enjoy the start of their weekend but me and Melissa stayed in class so that we could research about all the non profit charities and then choose two out of the 8.

(Melissa's pov)

“ Jaewon, since Jonathan said that we can pick two charities, why don’t you pick one and I pick one too?” I offered.

“ Yeah, that’s what I was thinking too" he says with a smile.

“ Okay, so I wont pick the fashion and clothing charity because you might not be into fashion as much as I am. So my pick will be the Art museum. What about you Jaewon?” I ask.

“ Ah, thanks for being considerate but you can still choose the clothing one as one of our choices because I was actually thinking of having the art museum as one of my choices too.” He says with a smile on his face.

“ oh okay, I guess we can choose both the clothing charity and the art museum then!”

“Alright then, let’s research about the two charities and do a write up since Dumb- I mean Jonathan wants us to do that and then when we finish, we will finally send it off" He says with a serious face.

“ Yeah sure, let’s do it"

We finally finished doing our work and we began to pack up and put our coats and jackets on.

“ Well, we have finally finished our first portion of our first assignment. We just have to wait and see which of the two charities will be working with us. I honestly don’t mind what we end up with" Jaewon says.

“ Yeah me too" I say as I finish packing my bag.

“ So what are you doing now? Jason asks.

“ Oh me?, I’m heading home and just chilling. So basically I’m not really going to do anything, why what’s up?

“ Oh no, I was just wondering whether you were going home or not so we can both walk home together. You know, since I live in the United block.” He says.

“ Oh yeah, sure. We can walk home together" I say with a smile.

~ A few moments later~

“Ah, so you live in Trinity block? No wonder I haven’t seen you in United block" Jaewon says.

“ Yeah * I giggle* thank you for walking me home Jaewon. It was nice of you"

“ No worries. It was nice talking to you too. Well, I’ll see you next week?” Jaewon asks.

“ Yeah, I’ll see you next week for Marketing”

“ Right, I’ll head to my accommodation then, bye" he says as he waves at me.

“ Bye" I say as I wave back at him.

This Jaewon guy isn’t as bad as I thought he would be. He’s really cool and very thoughtful, I always thought that he would be the cocky type,rude, considering that he is a rapper and stuff. But so far, so good. Everyone from our class even went home as soon as we got given our assignments but we stayed to get our work done, that shows that he is very serious about his degree. He even walked me home, which was a really nice gesture.
