#phum and kids?

[lol1tzme]

So Phumpeem's kid Talay aka our baby sea~

Now Their first meet? If you remember I mentioned about a orphanage in my previous story well I had a plot in mind.

After phumpeem confesses love (Peem does it first cause he couldn't wait anymore...), Phum takes him to visit the orphanage that is like a 2nd home to phum. He once visited the orphanage with his dad for charity work and ever since then he would always visit it and spend time with the kids their, spoil them with gifts and play many games with them.

- Sea was a new kid, he was dropped off by a Child care organization, he was apparently lost and his parents never came back and over a few months later they received a letter saying they didn't want him anymore. Sea was too young, around 4 year old and didn't know what was happening, he was very quite and shy kid.

-Phumpeem went over to the orphanage one weekend for a stay, Phum introduced peem to the kids and slowly the kids warmed up to him too, while peem got busy with the kids, The Old man aka the handler of orphanage pulled phum aside to talk about Sea. Sea was in his assigned room, playing with one of the plushie given to him.

-Sea was very scared to socialize with the kids in orphanage, would only leave his room for lunch and dinner and if he needed something which was very rare. It had been over 4 months and he hasn't changed one a bit. He was very overwhelmed during the first month when the kids tried to talk to him, he would shy away. Phum heard everything about Sea and felt enraged at his parents and also sad for Sea. He knew how it felt, the new surrounding must be hard for him to adapt to.

-phum went over to meet him, he firstly observed Sea from the door, Sea was sitting on the bed hugging what seemed like a puppy plushie. He recognized the plushie cause he made that one (from my previous story if you remember). He slowly approached Sea. Trying to be as friendly as possible. Sea didn't push him away like he expected but he did seems to scoot away, making himself smaller in the bed.

-Phum tried to hold short conversations but barely received any answers, only slight nods or hums. But phum wasn't mad or disappointed, he knew how much hard it would be for Sea. Phum was very patient.

- "Do you wanna come and paint with Phi?" Phum asked in a calm tone. Observing seats reaction. The old man said Sea liked colouring and would ask for a new book in over a week every time. So he thought that might get the kid to open up a little. "Do you like drawing?" Phum asked. Sea only nodded in response. Phum smiled and proceed to ask questions, "Can you show phi your drawings, if you like?" Phum asked, making sure he wasn't pressurizing Sea.

-it took almost 2 hours of questioning and conversing and Sea was slowly opening up, answering in short words instead of just nodding, He showed his drawings to phum and Phum was quite surprised, The drawings were very well made for a 4 year old. He praised Sea alot and caught on the small smile and red ears of the kid. Phum felt good to make him happy.

-Sea was slowly warming up to phum, Over the course of 2 days, he got quite close to phum but still refused to leave his room. Phum understood and didn't force him out instead spent time in his room, drawing with him and even trying to make him laugh a little and he even managed to get a little giggle out of the kid, it was progress.

-Peem tried to meet sea but he was still wary of peem, not scared or anything but he would get closed off a little around peem, still not trusting him easily. Peem decided to let him be and skipped over to other kids and let phum handle Sea. Peem was happy to see his boyfriend helping the kid who seem to be awfully similar to him, he was endeared seeing phum's determination to make the kid happy and give him a perfect childhood.

-Phumpeem had a serious talk on Sunday night, the night before they were going to leave. Phum decided to take sea with him, to stay with him so he could help the kid better, Sea was really attached to His P'Phum, there was no doubt of it and phum was scared to leave the kid, it could make sea think that he was being abandoned again, and phum never wants the kid to feel like that again and after a lot of discussion, Phum decided that sea would stay with him in his condo.

-and that was the first step of Phumpeem with their little Sea~

feeling faint every time i look at this moment specifically. it's just so tender so loving so gentle. phum says peem treats him like a kid but there's just something so high romance in this small gesture to me. it's peem saying 'you've been quiet and im not sure how to deal with this side of you im not familiar with but whatever it is im here for you and i will keep you safe' and im honestly insane about it

Ok briefly leaving my Phumpeem cloud of joy to jump to the Tanfang cloud of joy because

Fang my baby. He is so careful(?) with every action. We know that the brothers basically had to teach themselves how to love and they both are doing their best

But the way that Fang, cool calm collected Fang, basically runs away after calling his boyfriend a pet name. How sad he looks when he doesn't answer his calls. How almost insecure he sounds when he asks "you don't like it?" After Tan calls him cute

I will kill their parents seriously watch me

[passingbypainfullyaware]

We are the series ships as parents part 1

Phum/Peem

have the strict (but still kind and loving) dad in Peem x Spoils you rotten dad in Phum

they have a very beautiful daughter who is well adjusted, kind and somewhat hyperactive.

Phum drives this girl wherever she wants to go all the time no matter the circumstances. He is always just a phone call away.

She grew up loving music and wants to be a famous musician, she learnt how to play guitar from her uncle Q.

She uses Peem’s artwork as the cover of her albums.

She loves the beach and visiting her grandparents in Chiangmai, and she always invites way too many friends.

On any given day Phum/Peem can open the front door of their own home to see upwards of 3 teenagers in their house, who definitely do not live there.

She finds herself in a very gay friend group, like her fathers before her.

She cooks about as well as Peem does, without any of the self awareness, because Phum will always eat whatever she makes him.

She’s got trouble sleeping, so sometimes Peem makes hot chocolate late at night for the two of them and they chat away for hours, sitting out on the porch, wrapped up in a blanket, until she finally falls asleep in Peem’s arms. Peem carries her to her bedroom and tucks her in gently. Before heading back to Phum, who’s up waiting for him.

She’s very athletic, and has been enrolled in Muay Thai classes since she was a kid and is definitely down to fight for her friends.

Okay that’s about as many as I can think of atm. I’ll try to continue with other couples as well. For me Qtoey and TanFang have a much stronger childless energy but I can also see them being amazing with kids, so Im open to suggestions about them and anyone else.

[hiddenonigiri]

love how the start of we are ep16 is with them studying aka the one thing these university students haven't been doing these past 16 episodes

[dribs-and-drabbles]

YES! FINALLY

[bl-bam-beyond]

WE ARE: THE SERIES (2024, THAILAND)

Episode 7

Hold The Phone. His name is Kluen according to MDL played by KARATI PUANGMALEE aka TITLE.

Planning to meet Phum at Phum's request, Pheem (PHUWIN TANGSAKYUEN) calls Phum from a kiosk while buying a drink.

He is assaulted by Kluen...okay it wasn't assault just a case of mistaken identity. But smart Pheem uses the mistake to get a free drink from a stranger. As an apology of course but hey free is free.

That being said Title hasn't played an altruistic since Love By Chance in a BL.

Quick Recap: Be My Favorite Title played Knot, Pisaeng's asshole friend that was always up to no good.

In Hidden Agenda, Title played a guest role as Puen a guy that strung Zo along and broke his heart.

In Only Friends, Title played Atom. He lied and manipulated after getting f*cked by one night stander Boston.

And he's slated for roles in GMMTV'S Kidnap (OHM is back in BL without former partner Nanon but instead with Leng) and Perfect10Liners a JITTIRAIN NOVEL ADAPTATION by GMMTV.

So, looks like Kluen has his sights on Pheem. But his appearance in Episode 7 was super brief but he looked at Pheem with them seduction eyes and the smiles were wide.

Watch out Phum. Title doesn't do wholesome. Or perhaps he's a changed man.

Oh btw that Never Let Me Go episode ruuuuuuuuled

[celestial-sapphicss]

phum 🤝🏽 phukao; justified anger, extremely questionable ways of revenge.

[therethatstar]

it’s kinda funny that phum is the one who is visibly going through it, feeling 50 emotions simultaneously, in which 49 of those emotions are all brand new to him. on the surface, he’s the one who’s suffering anytime kluen gets close to peem. he’s the one with the laser eyes on them. or in pond’s words “bombastic side eye”. and it really seems like it’s phum who keeps approaching peem. chasing peem.

and while that’s true to certain extents, did anyone notice that it’s actually peem who gravitates towards phum this entire ep? he’s so focused on phum. his entire demeanor when it comes to phum has now changed so drastically. his tone, his attitude. they’re all so visibly different. he’s the one who keeps reaching for phum. he feels smug when the little kid says phum doesn’t want kluen near him. he fucking beams the moment phum comes to him. and he literally has a dude who kinda directly confesses his feelings for him yet his only concern is phum. he’s so attuned to phum’s emotions and notices every little thing about phum. peem’s mind at this point is just phum phum phum. and the show couldn’t have made that clearer.

it’s such a subtle role reversal between them but it was so fun and refreshing to watch and i think the show executes it pretty fucking well

[lol1tzme]

Part 2:

Third person pov

-Phum was sitting in the mall's cafè, holding his newly made puppy stuffie, One he himself made. The making of the stuffie was quite comforting to say the least, chosing the stuffie and then stuffing it with the cotton and giving it a heart, dressing it in twin clothes and even getting to name it. Phum loved every second of it. He used make them every weekend before, before he met peem. He used to give away those stuffie to kids in Orphanage, that reminded him. He haven't visited the kids for a while. He should definitely pay a visit soon.

-phum was feeling a lot better now. His thoughts diverted to the kids and his happy moments with them. He loved those kids, they made him familiar. He loved making them happy, loved playing with them, loved every second he spent there.

-A smiled formed on his face as he thought about the kids. "I should bring more plushies and ice cream.." He thought to himself. He took out his phone, unlocking it and ignoring all the other message and missed calls. He knew the other will drown him in questions, question he couldn't answer. He ignored that and messages the owner of orphanage, An old man in his 30s. The old man was quite fun to tease, phum loved getting on his nerves whenever he visited the orphanage. That's a story of next time. He quickly messaged him about his visit this weekend.

-He got his drink and stood up to leave but was shocked to find someone standing in front of him. Someone he was trying to run away from, someone he was avoiding.

Peem's pov

-I rushed to the mall, remembering that phum liked shopping whenever he got upset. He never really mentioned it but the numerous branded bags and clothes were a subtle sign that phum liked shopping, not for the stuff, but to clear his head.

-Peem ran around in every store, looking for phum. He finally found him, sitting in the cafe with a stuffie in his lap and on his phone. His legs moved on their own towards phum. A sense of relief washed over him on seeing him.

Third person's pov

- "What are you doing here?" Phum asked quietly. Both of them having sat back down. Phum nervously fidgeting with the stuffie's ears.

- "What happened?" Peem asked calmly. Looking at phum with his ever so soft gaze. Something phum had noticed, peem's eyes always softened while talking to him, as if phum was a kid.

Honestly I didn't think of how would they talk...so let me think about it before I write part 3...again please be patient, it's my first time actually writing something other than just my ideas... :,)

[stormyoceans]

thinking about phum trying to be tough and independent and an adult when at heart he is just a lost boy who wants to be loved and be taken care of. thinking about phum making peem his 'slave' as revenge when all he wants is actually a companion a friend a partner someone who won't leave. thinking about peem who won't take any of phum's shit but also worries about him and talks to him so very softly and allows him to just be a kid sometimes. thinking about peem who doesn't want phum to break their deal and who kissed phum first but also won't make the first move to define their relationship

thinking about how easily phum would let peem push him down on the mattress if peem just wanted to. thinking about peem discovering how willing phum is to just let go and allow peem to take charge and lay on the bed trembling as peem makes him come undone while whispering sweet nothings in his ear

This Week in BL - Lesbians WIN & I'm excited about a Thai BL again!

Organized, in each category, with ones I'm enjoying most at the top.

April 2024 Wk 4

Ongoing Series - Thai

My Stand-In (Thai Fri iQIYI) ep 1 of 12 eps - Adaptation of Chinese novel Professional Body Double by Shui Qiang Cheng. Stars Up (Lovely Writer) and Poom (Bake Me Please) directed by the same team as KP (not a recommendation IMHO - my biggest criticism of KP was the clashing directing styles). The MDL description made it sound complicated af but actually it's not so bad. In fact it's GOOD.

Stuntman Joe dies on the job and wakes up in the body of another Joe who has an entirely different life. But our Joe just gets his new body right back into his old existence, full of friends, enemies, and one troublesome ex. Poom is absolutely killing it in the lead. Mek is perfectly cast as the Actor du Jerk. I’m not sold on Up’s bratty brokenhearted rich kid... yet. The show though, I like it. I like a one (two) night stand starting things off and I like a lot of morally gray characters. Fun fun!

Deep Night (Thurs iQiyi) ep 8fin - The lesbian moms are the cutest thing in the world and my favorite thing this week. Bar none.

Summation:

It's about a host club and all the gay boys in it and some stuff that's not important because... PEOPLE OF EARTH WE HAVE A HONEST REP OF POLY IN A BL. Stand up and raise your hands in prayer to the Thai BL gods because sure as shit no one else was ever going to give this to us. For that alone this show gets 8/10 from me. Bonus Lesbian moms and great kisses.

Two Worlds (Thurs iQIYI) ep 7 of 10 - Say what you want about MaxNat all these years that they've been paired makes them great onscreen boyfriends. And you know me, I'm a total sucker for linguistic negotiation. Makes my heart go all mushy. That said, now that the leads are together, I’m really uninterested in all the drama around the ex-boyfriend/triangle. I'm glad this is only 10 eps.

1000 Years Old (Thurs iQIYI) ep 11 of 12 - They gave me the tiniest teaser for the kinky vampire BL that I have wanted my whole life. And now I'm just fucking annoyed with the rest of the show. 

We Are (Weds iQIYI) ep 3-4 of 16 - Q & Toey are the only interesting thing going on. I actually didn’t like this pair in My School President, but I’m enjoying them here. The others are all fine but these two have my heart. I have questions like: did Phum ever get his shopping bags back? And why is Phum driving a different colored car half way through the ep?

Only Boo! (Sun YouTube) ep 3 of 12 - The quality is good (it’s GMMTV) but the acting is... not. Still I loved that Moo just made the confession for both of them. Very in character. Does this plot remind anyone else of Footloose? Just me? Side couple was cute but now a bit too stalker for me. 

Ongoing Series - Not Thai

Unknown (Taiwan Tues YouTube & Viki) ep 10 of 12 - It’s fantastic. Such a great show. We are so lucky. This is basically Taiwan’s The Eights Sense. I didn’t know they had it in them, but I’m really glad that they did.

Living With Him AKA Kare no Iru Seikatsu (Japan Thurs Gaga) ep 3 of 10 - As JBL’s go this is way more my speed (than Alaska). It’s just so sweet and awkward but charming about it. The confession was so earnest. 

Blue Boys (Korea YouTube) 2 of ? No MDL link - It’s very sexy this one. Not sure what Korea thinks it's doing, but I’m not mad about it. 

Gray Shelter (Korea Thurs iQIYI) ep 5fin - summation: About a slacker nursing a crush on the (brief) older stepbrother who abandoned him. Upon finding him again he moves in with him, upends the mans lost suffering life. A dark gritty piece with confusing subs making it too chewy to really grok. It's trying to do too much for its length. The tension is real and the acting is good, it's just everything else stymied clean execution of the core concept. Frankly I spent this show expecting (and wanting them) to just fall into bed together - in a kind of desperate fight sex. It didn’t happen, and I’m disappointed by the non-ending we got. (Whether it’s going to have more in the series or not.) 7/10 I'm open to changing the rank if a part two fixes this one's flaws.

Boys Be Brave AKA Roommates (Korea Thurs Viki) ep 1-2 of 8 - Oh dear. Terrible hair. Jock nerd pairing. OCD baby cakes. Cohabitation trope. Killer side couple. Def unhinged. 

At 25:00 in Alaska AKA 25 Ji Akasaka de (Japan Thurs Gaga) ep 2 of 10 - I’m still genuinely not sure about this one. It’s just a little too awkward for me in the wrong way. I expect all Japanese BL to have a certain aura of awkwardness so I don’t know what it is about this one turnign me off. I do enjoy that we’re getting both stories, the one between the actors, and a little bit of the roles that they’re playing on screen but... yeah

Love is like a Cat (Korea Mon Viki) eps 7-8 of 12 - The leads finally had a moment but there is negative chemistry. Why am I watching this? 

It's airing but...

Lady Boy Friends (Thai WeTV grey) 16 eps - reminds me a bit too much of Diary of Tootsies only high school. Not my thing. DNF unless it turns a corner and is truly amazing.

Memory in the Letter (Thai WeTV) - 6 eps, when it's done, tell me if I should bother?

In case you missed it

Kiseki Chapter 2 (Sun iQIYI) 6 eps - finished its run but I won't be finishing it. Stays dropped.

GMMTV announced the second half of their 2024 line up. I got excited and picked my favorites, details + trailers here. Basically my ranking is:

The Heart Killers

ThamePo

Revamp

Sweet Tooth

Perfect 10 Liners

The Ex-Morning

Ossan’s Love Thailand

Next Week Looks Like This:

Knock-Knock Boys (Thai WeTV) - 4 college friends conspire to help their friend lose his virginity. Familiar faces like Seng (yes, Billy's previous pairing) and Best, news here. But will it actually air this month?

Parenting so bad that it gives the kids two separate kinds of traumas

Fang, not believing that love could be unconditional, thinking that he must be perfect and easy to deal with to be deserving of love

And Phum over here with some classic abandonment issues, finding it amazing that anyone except his brother would want to stay, even when he is sad or mean.

So yeah when is the "Murder their parents" party?

[calciumcryptid]

I know we all talk about Phum and his experiences with his childhoods neglect, but gods does Fang make me eat the drywall because there are so many implications about how it affected him too.

We don't know much about Phum and Fang's elder brother beyond a name and their mother asking Fang about how he has been doing, but I think that says a lot about the family and their connection. An elder brother who, going off the picture, doesn't seem much older than Fang and Phum who probably got out of dodge as soon as he could but in doing so left Fang and Phum alone in that house.

Fang who navigated international lines to talk to his scared crying younger brother and (probably) sent Phum plushies as a substitute for his company, but was only about a year or two older so he didn't realize it could never make up for the real thing.

Fang who knows how to make spaghetti and not much else because sometimes his parents forgot to leave money for groceries/takeout and he has to feed his younger brother because he is the only other parental figure despite being a year or two older and shouldn't have been unsupervised in the kitchen.

Fang who in high school punched his future-boyfriend in the face, because of course he did when he has been nothing but the peacekeeper in his household and a guy has been rude to him and he needs to let go of some of that bitterness and resentment and man doesn't Tan look punchable?

Fang who watched Phum get into fights too and emulate his behavior but he can never be mad at Phum because it isn't his fault no one bothered to check on the rich family's kids. Then Phum would emulate him further when he fell for the kid who kicked him in the nuts, but Fang can't even complain because Peem is the best thing to happen to his little brother.

Fang who went into architecture and keeps his grades up probably because his parents wanted him to go into business and having high grades is the only way to prove that he is doing what is best.

Fang who freaked out when his attentive boyfriend didn't respond to his calls and messages because his worst fears are confirmed and Tan is going to leave him just like his parents just like his elder brother- but Tan never left and continues to be his safe place.

Fang who was set up as the peacekeeper in his family, a bridge between Phum and their parents. Fang still living with their parents and constantly trying to get Phum to play nice because of course Fang is doing that because he wasn't the one abandoned in another country but also he got the bare amounts of attention that kept him strung along for more and to doesn't matter that his parents only seem to ask about his elder brother or his grades or talk about their own work because every once and while they pay attention to him.

Fang who will come to the realization the only love he values is Phum's, Tan's, and his news friends (which his parents didn't even realize he had) and how he will move out into a new place with Tan and cut off contact and it will be hard but it will be worth it because when he is married and adopted two kids and his kids ask about their grandparents on his side he'll give them a small smile and say they passed away decades ago even though he doesn't know if that is true but doesn't care to find out.
