Do you guys also have actors you loved/were vowed by in one drama and then it’s never replicated before or since? I always wonder how that works - if someone is always bad or always good, that’s self explanatory. Sometimes actors improve or, unfortunately, get worse as they stop caring. And a lot of actors are uneven - sometimes good and sometimes bad depending on direction and whether the character is something that works for them, co stars etc. But I always wonder about actors where I loved them in one thing and they never worked me in anything else. I wonder how that happens.

Examples - Peng Xiaoran in Goodbye My Princess was glorious and to me like a piece of background wood in everything else. I adored Dylan Wang in CLJ like mad despite not caring for him before and remember thinking he’s had a breakthrough but every other drama he’s been after left me cold about his performances again. Gong Jun - sublime in WoH and gorgeous wallpaper as far as I am concerned in everything else since. Song Weilong was good in Go Ahead and Hu Yitian in Defying the Storm - rock solid. Everywhere else for those two? Acting summed up as “tall and good-looking.” Yang Chaoye was fine in Heroes and unwatchable in anything else (tho there like with PXR the explanation is probably Li Muge) Etc etc

Honestly in some ways it’s worse than an actor whose performance never works for me - because it raises my hopes up that maybe this will stick even if not consistently then this this this time. And it never does (fwiw I’ve given up on the two ladies on this list, HYT and SWL (tho that man is not offensive to watch and so gorgeous I still look forward to his stuff) but please Dylan and Gong Jun, get it together!)

February CPNs

hello! it’s that time of the month again that i compile the sweets brought to us by the boys! this month started out very quiet but in this fandom will mean that things will take a turn in the next week/s. you just never know what will happen next. i have added some commentary here on certain incidents that i didn’t talk about separately on my blog to have “bonus content” for this round-up.

• XZ’s GQ cover and collaboration sweets + additional ones connected to fake rumor

• not really cpn, but our boys continue to make it in the weibo hot search trend report - i still hate sina weibo but i understand how it’s relevant for them.

• XZ’s wedding suit from the AV festival. yes, this was made for him but we just had him wear that white backless wedding suit by jacquemus for GQ and now this? hmmmm. me thinks he has a preference? lol. he prefers white and that’s fine, but the choice of what looks like a wedding suit is 👀. i am on standby, let me see if this continues.

pair it off with WYB! and it’s perfect. tho i would prefer it if they are both in white. 🤍

• xzs has the same caption as a cpf

• yibo’s watch and gg’s GQ props connection the number 91 and 3.

• chinese new year candies - gg’s weibo post, wyb’s red envelope cover clues etc

• rufeng shares new thailand fm rehearsal footage

• tencent video posting their new year vcr so close together! they could have easily posted it one after the other but maybe they didn’t want some solo fan drama. i’m happy that bobo continues to collab with 10c, and ZZ is not exclusive to 10c anymore— so hopefully this means in the future they can work on a project together <3

• clowning over XZ’s song in spring festival gala as you wish + same composer as wyb’s singles and how wyb was listening to a song from this artist lately.

• this parallel between their looks. it’s not just their characters that match each other, but their outfits from certain events. so classy!

but i think this one is the best. seeing them get recognition for their acting in the past few months has been very rewarding. all the hard work and challenges are bearing fruit. remembering them talking about wanting to become professional actors and really take that path — studying and dreaming together. now here we are 🫶🏼

• a cute tidbit, but the cat xz is playing with is called xiao wang. that’s because on it’s back looks like the character for wang! what a coincidence!!!! 🥹

• Bottled Joy stirring the CPN pot again by posting this on 2/13. As You Wish. The context of the post is that, as you wish — fans can get these wallpapers and photos of Bobo. but it’s a coincidence cause it’s the english title of the song GG sang @ BRTV Spring Festival Gala. 👀 the colors too, white and silver which is the same color combination of GG’s outfit. This may be meh to some, but knowing Bottled Joy’s cpn history, you can’t blame us.

• Golden Hour and Eason Chan songs @ yibo’s playlist

• Small weekend roundup - includes mention of asian pop magazines where the boys are both mentioned, supplement to xz using tickets for his spring festival photos last year as support of bobo’s movie and the phone card case appears.

• Rumor of Wang Yibo being in Hengdian - one / two / three ( i feel like this one is up there with the leica camera and gg’s bday cpn but this one is more risky on their part. as i have said in my posts, what is important is they are safe and happy. it’s their personal life. their relationship is between the two of them. as cpfs, we should be protecting them and not be people they are wary of. if we are not careful, we are no different from ss and yxh. )

• On 2/20, Yuehua & YBO have posted about the slander recently going around related to WYB and that they have reported it to the police. This went really high on HS and was widely talked about, even Du Hua reposted and reacted to it. Hours later, XZS has posted their own reminder to fans in relation to people disturbing his drama filming. What made it more important is that XZ reposted it too and put in a very firm reminder to everyone.

to give some context, the horrible rumor regarding WYB was spread around by mostly XZ fans. There was a melon that said “X” has STD and then toxic people started saying it’s WYB ( cause toxic xz fans doesn’t want it linked to XZ because of the clue given so they throw it to WYB. i know it sounds stupid, but it’s actually a common tactic done by both sides ) and even fabricated some photos. another actor, xukai was also implicated and he also reported to the police.

so this can be read by so/os as XZ&XZS trying to cover up for the toxic solos and what they did. i get why other people will think that and i personally wanted them to address the bad things his solos do. however i also understand why xz and his team can’t “betray” the solo fans. that’s just how it goes. however, in cpf interpretation, this is XZ’s way of taking away the heat from wyb and a way of putting a stop to the conversations about that horrible lie. it worked in a way that it went on HS, but not as high as WYB’s. I was also surprised that XZ reposted it himself. i am aware that the leaks and everything else is a serious issue and XZ is someone who hates being a bother to the crew. but he usually doesn’t do this. he usually leaves it to XZS or the drama account. This tells me that he personally wants to lend his name and his weibo account, to get more of the heat. The last line he said can also be a message to his toxic so/os: respect others and respect yourself.

• On 2/20, there were tarot readings some BXGs have enjoyed. One is this that is a new year CP reading done on 2/4. What made fans 👀 are:

1. this card, where OP said it’s them being hand in hand and don’t get tired of each other. and in the background is a sacred building, which symbolizes them having a vow to each other.

more cpn was added into it when GG did MFW and people realized not to take this literally cause it could be representing the Duomo.

2. Here is the part that was v interesting to cpfs cause this person gave a prediction that followed what we cpn and happened in the next couple of days.

The two of them haven’t had many official activities recently. So from February 4th, there is a chance for the two of them to meet each other in the past few days. And as soon as the two of them meet, they won’t be going out. Yibo knows he is active but he will close up and be willing to hide at home for XZ.

this is so close to what we speculated! that they spent a quiet cny break together. 🥹🥹🥹

3. Next one is so on point it’s scary cause i have already discussed the bad rumor going around and was directed at WYB before this entry. OP was sort of right. tho i don’t know it this will be another hateful rumor, i hope not.

My prediction is that it will be in March 2024, around this time, I feel that WYB will have a a force of public opinion surrounding him. It's unfriendly to him. This power of public opinion including but not limited to WYB. If we use the 8 of Swords to understand the external environment, it is a relatively sharp. There is some public opinion about the two of them that may cause some trouble

If something happens to WYB, XZ will immediately rise up and have to rush out to protect him. XZ will work hard behind the scenes silently in his own way and are some practical actions.

I don’t think i need to further explain. It fits what happened in 2/20. 👁️👄👁️

4. WYB’s resources for 2024 will be very good. In the first quarter, the number of resources was not very large but the quality of the resources is very good. Then the Queen of Pentacles in the third quarter. In the fourth quarter, the Queen of Cups.

For context: The Queen of Pentacles, therefore, depicts a certain level of success and prosperity. But the rabbit at the bottom cautions us that we should be careful of where we leap when we are chasing that success. Queen of Cups - Generally speaking, this is a positive card for both career and finances, suggesting you're "in tune with yourself, have a good work-life balance going on, and overall a positive job experience.

The reading is close to 1 hour long and I just can’t translate it all so i’m going off what CPFs are highlighting.

• XZ’s pre Milan flight Gucci & camcorder cpn

• Fake Rumors : getting caught kissing / spending time during CNY

• XZS first post in Milan is the invitation given to XZ by Tod’s for the show. Those who had the same time as Milan saw the actual time stamp which is 1823. A beloved kadian number!!!!!

• xz’s collar and whole look for GUCCI MFW gave us so many thoughts. lol. i know sexualization of the boys is a complicated issue in the fandom but when things like this happen — how can we stop? lol. no. but seriously. it is what it is.

• checking their fingernails + similar pose to HB

• a comment that implies xz went to zhuhai with wyb to ride a motorcycle

• their photos match so well. 🌅

from zz’s post in milan. it’s filled with the elements they love like the moon and a beautiful sunset background. gg was also showing off his re web shoes which is of course, because he is a gucci ambassador and all that but the “web” cpn is getting stronger. however, i am personally losing my mind over the implications in the caption he used.

• clues in zz’s mfw interviews, matching talismans on their phone cases and similar ads for shu uemura & loreal

• 8 fake rumors from CQL shoot/era that i posted about 📝

• A place CPFs landmark lol

• spotted same mannerism! twins ☺️☺️☺️☺️

see you all next month for another round up of sweetness! just continue to support the boys and ignore the toxic moves of irrelevant people. fandom is supposed to be fun and a safe space so i hope we all fight to keep that love & peace here 🫶🏼

Hils Watches Tibetan Sea Flower - Ep 7

Wu Xie: this meeting could have been an email

Wu Xie saying 'Just watch me' is like Baldrick saying 'I have a cunning plan'

He's just vocalising everything I wish I could say during a work meeting

Pangzi: it's been at least 2 minutes since I last touched Wu Xie. Must correct this immediately

Does 'unique constitution' mean 'somehow he's still alive despite all the odds'

"I've been tricked so many times I'm a pro at it now" is very much something Wu Xie would say. This might be the most in character adaptation yet

Pangzi's face says this isn't the first time he's heard Wu Xie say 'but I can't bear to leave these murals/these scrolls/this cool piece of architecture behind'

Pangzi knows exactly the right thing to say to calm Wu Xie down

CANONICAL BACKSTORY REFERENCE I DON'T KNOW HOW TO COPE WITH THIS 😭

Fashion icon Wang Pangzi strikes agian. God, look at him

LOOK AT HIM

I don't think you understand how much I love these idiot losers

I'm imagining when Xiaoge gets back Zhang Haike will be like 'with the greatest respect let me tell you what your cringe husbands did while you were gone' Xiaoge: 😐 (which means he is listening with the utmost fondness for his two cringe husbands)

These are two grown-ass men

Pangzi offering the one thing that might tempt Wu Xie into not walking into an obvious trap

Stop. No. I hate it when Pangzi is sad. Is this how it starts? Is this how we end up where we do in Sha Hai where they're working together but separately because Pangzi can't bear to see Wu Xie destroy himself

I hate it when they fight 😭

Of course he came back

FFS I'm crying again. I just love how much the three of them love each other

I want to make this my new desktop wallpaper

I love that even Zhang Haixing is kind of amused by their shenanigans

Ah, we're back to the baby Zhangs now

I'm surprised he's not doing more to try and stop the other baby Zhangs from killing Xiaoge, considering his sister is the one who started the fight

Well, is it really DMBJ without some more horrifying traumatic backstory for Xiaoge

Zhang Haixing knows what's going on with her brother

[wangmiao]

These have been sitting in my draft for more than two weeks. After last month's release of the character posters in the similar style, Three-Body Community's weibo released another batch of posters/wallpapers.

Again the Shiwang agenda is still here. Of course we are getting the most iconic church scene (the purple one), and then what I find amusing is the green one which is the scene where Shi Qiang followed Wang Miao to Yang Dong's funeral, and downright said to Wang Miao: "You look very handsome dress all in black." There are so many scenes to pick, and they just had to pick a scene like this lol!

I do love all of these, especially the last one.

'The White Elephant Rules' by @jack-of-crowns

In the sweltering late monsoon streets of Krung Thep, the air hung thickly incensed with a heady mix of dok mali jasmine tinged with pungent fumes sputtering from the exhaust of horseless carriages. Five ministers gathered inside the Hall of Whispers, silken suits rustling as they took their seats around a circular teak table inlaid with a mosaic of enchanted mother-of-pearl tiles, which were constantly shuffling and rearranging themselves in an endless retelling of the glorious history of their city-state.

Everyone in the quintet could feel the strong presence that they would obliquely refer to amongst themselves as the 'Invisible Guest'; it was in the way the sunbeams rippled through the kranok-patterned latticework of the windows, it was in the way the usually steady flames of the kerosene lamps seemed to flicker in some unfelt breeze. Even the afternoon tea service thrummed along to this mystic undercurrent, the bonjarong teacups humming ever so slightly in their fine porcelain saucers.

Chaiya, the eldest and Mahatthai of the North, cleared his throat. His long and wispy beard quivered as he spoke, but the voice behind it carried a weight steadied by decades of experience. "Esteemed colleagues," he began, "the royal khlang wanes, and the winds blow ever stronger at us from the empires of the Distant Shores. We must find a way to preserve our sacred ways while...adapting."

The other ministers nodded gravely, looking around the room at each other and at the clashes of old and new- intricate carvings of mai daeng set against art nouveau wallpapers, sandstone bodhisattvas jostling for shelf and table space with newspapers and a wireless radio set. None dared let their gaze wander towards the massive, milk-white presence that dominated the far end of the cavernous chamber, ivory tusks brightly reflective under the electric light.

Lalita, Minister of Foreign Affairs, her carefully coiffed bob a stark contrast to the traditional khao san braids of the court ladies, spoke next. "Perhaps we could increase trade with the mage guilds of the Distant Shores? They're always looking for new material component sources in these lands."

A low, barely audible rumbling filled the room, and the ministers collectively held their breath. When it passed, Chaiya shook his head. "And risk the establishment of their guild houses here in Krung Thep, growing in influence until we become another one of their protectorates? No, we must tread most carefully in our dealings with these artificers. Remember the fate of the Hidden Kingdom."

Kiet, ranking Krom Na of Agriculture and Land, nervously adjusted the settings on his insight monocle. "What if we embraced some of their farming methods? I've seen reports that the new combine golems increase rice yields tenfold and-"

As he spoke, a blast of trumpeting wind swept through the hall, squalling of nor noi grass with notes of jessamine and tamarind. For a moment, even the bulbs of the chandeliers overhead flickered and dimmed, as though open flames caught in a sudden gust. An afterglow of leathery whiteness followed in its wake. Kiet's words died in his mouth, and he quickly refocused his monocle on the morning edition of the 'Krung Thep Chronicle' which he then quickly unfolded and pretended to study.

Niran, youngest of the group and recently appointed Krom Wang of Palace Affairs, leaned forward, highborn education from the universities of the Distant Shores evident in their clipped inflections. "Esteemed colleagues, we dance around the issue like chanis around a phonograph. There can possibly be no new solutions so long as we still find ourselves beholden to...outdated notions."

"Careful, Niran," Chaiya cut in sharply, eyes wide with warning. Remember our duties, sacred as well as secular. Remember the very source of our prana."

The Hall of Whispers fell quiet once more, save for the high-pitched hissing that always seemed to permeate the room when no other sounds were otherwise present. It had the thick sybillance of ancient dreams; tensed as a gathering storm.

Malai, Krom Phra Khlang of the Treasury, who had remained silent until now, began calmly speaking in her characteristically precise and eloquent tones. "Perhaps we have been asking ourselves the wrong questions. Instead of choosing between conservative and progressive options, perhaps we should...redefine the obligations of our posts."

The other ministers exchanged glances, hope and trepidation mingling in the creases of their features.

"Go on," Chaiya urged, his voice low yet encouraging above the whirring of the ceiling fans.

Malai took a deep breath. "Chang Phueak has always been the symbol of our nation's prosperity as well as that of the divine favour bestowed upon us. What if...what if we were to make it a symbol of our adaptability as well? We could organize international exhibitions, showcasing what wonders Krung Thep has to offer a modernizing world."

A sharp, bell-like chirping began reverberating throughout the chamber, like the tolling of hours from the ho rakhang. The ministers all gripped the edges of the enchanted table before them, white-knuckled, waiting for the sound to fade.

Lalita spoke quickly, covering the falling echoes. "This is not entirely without precedent. Did not the Great Yai himself use the manifestations of the might of Chang Phueak as part of his diplomatic endeavors during his tour of the Distant Shores?"

Niran scoffed, unable to contain themself anymore. "And look where that has led us - caught between past and future, neither here nor there. We pour scarce resources into maintaining this...relic, whilst our people cry out for progress and reform!" They opened their mouth to say more, but no words or sound came forth. As their face flushed with anger and frustration, a massive shadow fell across them.

"Niran!" Chaiya's voice cracked like a whip. "You forget yourself and whose holy presence you are in!" All of the ministers could feel the weight of that shadow upon themselves as well, and for several long moments all was still as they clasped hands and offered up silent awgathas, asking forgiveness for the brash words of their young colleague; and there was only the tick-tocking of a distant chronothurge.

Finally, Kiet's pragmatism broke the silence. "Surely, there is a middle path to be tread here. What if we invested more in modern artifice but dedicated a portion of the profits to the upkeep of our sacred institutions? Surely Chang Phueak would bless those endeavors that ensure our prosperity?"

But this time, there were no signs with which to augur the questions, and Kiet's words fell heavily into the growing darkness of the oncoming night. Chaiya sighed heavily, looking every one of the many years of life that his devoted service had earned him. The irony of circumstance was lost on no one. Here they were, in a city-state brimming with all the trappings of modernity, and yet all of them were in return trapped by this magnificent, impossible creature in their midst- and not one of them could truthfully admit that Krung Thep had escaped the fate of so many ancient civilizations of their world precisely because of the presence of Chang Phueak.

As they rose to leave, each of them performed a deep wai, acknowledging the unblinking gaze of Chang Phueak upon them; for some satjas are too apparent to be questioned, and some traditions have roots that are deeper than meadows of vetiver. The last to leave was Niran, pausing at the threshold of the portal that would transport them back into the humid evening shadows that were growing long in the streets outside the Hall of Whispers. They stole a look backward, taking in the full majesty and wonder of the creature that ruled their life.

Chang Phueak stood there, magnificent and resplendent, wrinkled hide gleaming with a light to outshine even the incandescent suns that blazed along the deep routes that led to the Distant Shores. Its eyes, brimming with an inscrutable jutamung, met Niran's gaze; and for the first time, the minister at last understood their predicament. The White Elephant was Krung Thep, and Krung Thep was the White Elephant; preserving them both upon the stage of this changing world would require balance and skill worthy of the greatest performers of nora.

With jai as leaden as an anchor, Niran placed their hand within the imprinted sigil within the portal, and in a flash found themself in a beautiful tropical twilight that had splashed an indigo sky with pale pinks and then been pinpricked with the thousand coal-fired stars of the gaslamps. Another day had drawn to a close, and tomorrow they would once again dance around the enchanted teak table with its swirling mother-of-pearl mosaics, talking in endless circles about the truths of which they could never speak; for the White Elephant would always rule, even as the world around it had changed. The question was, would Krung Thep change with it, or would they both be left behind, magnificent relics from a world that had moved beyond them?

[linggluu]

Anyways, I think it's like a 99% chance he actually DOES have a younger brother. His parents are always hauling around this little kid -for years now and the kid is his mom's wallpaper. This is NOT a relative's kid. Why only have 1 kid as your wallpaper? What about the other one that is publicly known? Based on the age of the child, he would have been born, the same year Junkai took college entrance exams/got into college. Imagine your parents randomly giving you a sibling at age 18.

So while Wang Junkai's been busting his ass off since he was 13, going through grueling schedules and getting into university when clovers/his company didn't want him too, his parents were off in Sanya getting pregant.

While Junkai is taking red eye flights and working nonstop for years, his money is all with his parents who are living the life and using HIS money to give the second child a good life. (not entirely wrong but still)

I'm sure Junkai is loved and he loves his brother but this is wild. It's not easy on his parents to have 12-13 years of your only child to leave home so they probably decided to have another kid to have someone close by. But to use the money of your older child to live comfortably, while he's out here working until 4am, eating/cooking New Year's dinner by himself, living by himself, never getting a day off while the whole family is huddled around 2nd brother? When Junkai goes home, he barely talks to his parents. No wonder he goes over to his grandparents.

I'm just saying if you are going to have 2 kids, treat them both right even if one has been a working adult for years now. Junkai deserves the best.

小凯， 你永远是我最偏爱的。

To All the Boys I've Loved Before

Pairing: BTS / Reader

Genre: Friends to lovers! AU 

Word Count: 2467

Dear Kim Taehyung,

I just can’t seem to pinpoint the exact moment I fell in love with you. Do you know that birds and squirrels would bury seeds in different places to store them for winter? They would do that and sometimes forget where places where they buried it. Thus, during spring, the seeds would flourish into life. Those seeds are like my feelings for you. There wasn’t a single time when I fell for you all at once. It was the whole collection of seeds, mapping out my feelings for you.

Perhaps it started from the time where I met you in the elevator. You smiled at me, and it was the most genuine smile I ever got from a stranger in my whole life. Tell me, how is it that your smile is brighter than the sun itself? The whole ten-seconds ride felt like ages due to the awkward silence.

To your amusement and my horror, I didn’t realise you were going to the same floor, so we both tried to get out at the same time. We bumped into each other so hard that you fell to the floor.

I was absolutely mortified, but you grinned at me sweetly and said, “Why is it that you made me fall when we’ve only known each other for 1 minute?”

I couldn’t help the smile that mirrored your own after that. I fell for the way you would shamelessly ask for me to bake you butter cookies again. I fell for the way that you would show up at my door with burnt brownies and claim that you made extra and required help finishing them. I fell for your smile, over and over again, like the fool that I am.

Why is it that I will soon slip the letter inside your empty house, even though you left without telling me months ago?

Tell me, did the time we spent together mean nothing, like the one forgotten seed in a sea of others?

Dear Park Jimin,

Maybe the way you so perfectly pirouetted into my life shows that it was nothing but a show. You would throw every single cell of your whole being into dancing, with the same fluid-like movements that entranced me since the first second I saw you. Or maybe I was entranced by the way you reminded me so much of myself. When Ms Choon told us that there was only one spot left in the showcase, she signed up both of us as a duet performance.

And you, the arrogant and childish you, demanded, “That’s not fair! I worked months for it!”

And me, the stubborn and younger me, added, “What about my solo too?”

But the fate was sealed, and it took weeks for us to realise, that maybe having a partner wasn’t so bad after all. Somehow, we started spending more time outside the dance studio. It wasn’t just a partner relationship anymore. You started becoming someone who I would call first to tell about the high math test score I got. Or the fact that Emma Wang would glare at me but never say anything after you taught her a lesson when she started spreading rumours about me.

“Trust me.” You said and lifted me into the air, again and again, never letting me fall. I think that you were the closest I ever had to something more. The dance started from mutual dislike to something more than trust.

At least, until you broke it to pieces.

Why did you have a wallpaper of another girl? Why did you childishly drop out on the day of the competition saying you got a stomach bug and then proceeded to ignore me for months?

Maybe in another universe, the world can finally be a place where you were next to me, but you completely destroyed any chances of it in this one. I was too stupid to realise that you were always out of my reach.

Tell me, why did you get so close to me and look at me like I was the entire world when you had another by your side?

Dear Kim Seokjin,

You deserved the best love story in the universe. You deserved someone who makes you home-cooked meals every single day, someone with looks that could parallel Aphrodite herself, someone who isn’t such a mess. You deserved someone with a complete heart, someone who doesn’t look at you and saw a boy who spent more time dancing than breathing.

Do you remember when I wrote you a love letter for Valentine's, but you chucked it in the trash with at least a dozen of others along with it, without a thought, and asked me with a chuckle, “Why are they wasting their time on someone like me?” You didn’t know about the hours I spent pouring over these sheets of paper, looking up dad jokes on the internet and wondering which one you would like the best.

That’s the thing, Kim Seokjin, you shine with the brilliance of a thousand stars in the rural night sky, and that brilliance was bound to be noticed by others. But before I could say anything, Hoseok slapped your back and laughed, “Because they only look at your appearance. If they hear the stuff that comes out of your mouth they will wonder why.”

When you smiled at me next, it was not the smile that I was so used to seeing. There was something fractured about it, but still trying to hold together. I wondered if I should have said something, but my own broken self would have made it worse, and you always turn away before I could speak. You always do. I never knew why.

Dear Jin,

I understand now. Tell me, why didn’t you say anything when it wasn’t too late?

Dear Jung Hoseok,

I would have liked to think I did as much for you as you did for me. I suppose that’s your charm, isn’t it? If I never sat next to you in English class when there are no other seats available. You helped chase away the haunting memories of the boy that was like my first love while dreaming of the one for you.

And that’s one of the things that I admired the most about you. You were a dreamer, but you were never afraid to show who you are. You dreamed of a bright future as a choreographer, someone who has another person waiting for them at home, someone who has a complete family.

I would have liked to think that the late nights spent watching cheesy rom-coms and impromptu fashion shows would soften the nostalgic look you would have in your eyes when someone brings up something that would remind you of your mother, who died a few years ago.

You’re braver than I would ever be. Seokjin claims that it’s stupidity when he used to hang out with us, but it’s not like any of us have the right to judge.

This is probably never going to be sent out, like most of the others. We promised that we would keep in touch after we leave for our respective universities. I guess that some things in life just weren’t meant to last, and somehow our friendship just fell apart.

Thank you, Hobi. Tell me, did you find her?

Dear Min Yoongi,

You were the sunrise in the early morning. Too early for most people to see the wonderful glow, and disappears into wisps way too fast. You are the shadow that I cannot shake off but yet cannot touch. I met you outside of the door where the boy next door used to live. You stood in the hallway, headphones plugged into your ears, nodding to a rhythm no one else could hear.

You suddenly said, without looking at me, “So, you’re my new neighbour.”

I was going to rebut that you were the new one, not me, but when you looked up I can’t help but think that you were so different than the last boy who lived there, just a few months ago standing in the same spot holding a bottle of bubble solution and blowing, the rainbow spheres bursting into a sprinkle of nothing.

“That’s me,” I said. “When did you move in?”

When did he move out? was the unspoken true question. But you didn’t know me enough to understand the reason for the mood shift when I stepped inside your house and found that everything has changed.

You’re one of these people, the ones that don’t really have a home. Somehow, it started to feel like home with you, and slowly I began to forget about the missed chance of the first boy that I’ve dreamt of kissing. But you’re also like a ghost. I didn’t know much about you, except the fact that you liked watching horror movies and that you would always wear mismatched socks. You never talked about your family, but I figured that you ran away. Somehow, I started not being enough for you, even when you were enough for me.

Now I can’t even remember how your eyes would crinkle up when you laugh, or the exact shade of your eyes when they light up in happiness.

“Don’t forget about me.” You told me before you had to leave. “Even if you start to forget yourself.”

I didn’t promise you anything, because all I could think about was another door, another lost boy, another life, closing in my face.

Tell me, where are you now? Who even are you?

Dear Kim Namjoon,

It’s funny how easily you slipped into my life, between the cracks of laughter in the library when you were supposed to be tutoring me for math, drinking lattes and thinking of the days in the local cafe when Jin and Hoseok still hung out with us. I was always too focused on Hoseok’s antics and the way light would always hit Jin’s perfect face at just the right angles to think of the times when you would slip a Mars bar into my bag wordlessly whenever Jin went out on a date with another girl. When I got a bad grade on a physics test. When I had a fight with my parents.

Everything felt weird when we went back to the cafe after everything fell apart. It was still the same place, but it didn’t feel the same without the same people. Like discovering your favorite shirt years ago in the back of the closet but finding out that it didn’t quite fit anymore.

But some things were still the same. The way your hair would always be a mess in the mornings. The way you added way too much sugar in your coffee. The dimples.

Being with you was like walking down memory lane with the only other person who could really see it the same way as you. You knew about everything, even the time I spent away from the city. You were my lifeguard, my only stability, in the middle of the ocean.

Do you remember the time I tripped and it was you I grabbed onto, not Jin?

After you confessed I found that I simply could not hold onto you, because you wanted to leave and go somewhere on the other side of the world. You turned into a forgotten dream that I could no longer chase.

And everything came to an end. Tell me, why did that beginning turn to the ending way too soon?

Dear Jeon Jungkook,

Every single one of my letters is a snapshot, each a failure. Each boy was like a snowflake, beautiful, unique, and too soon gone. I have to admit that I was a coward. But you were different. That one summer three years ago changed me.

I was on an errand when you bumped into me, ice cream and all. Who would eat ice cream when it’s so cold outside? You. I stood there, in shock, the ice cream making my shirt stick to my stomach in the most uncomfortable way, watching your expression turn from amusement to apologetic.“Oh shit I’m so sorry.”

I stood there, at a loss of what to say. You stared at me, horrified, before scrambling to pick up the groceries that I had dropped and handed them back to me.

“I-know-I-ruined-your-shirt-but-like-I’m-broke-instead-I-can-teach-you-how-to-skate.” You declared in a rush, holding up a worn-up plain skateboard, youthful energy prominent in every single cell of your body, unlike me. I used to call you a giant baby all the time, and you would chuckle and claim that I was the grandma.

Maybe that’s why I wasn’t as hesitant as I should be.

“Why? I don’t like skateboarding.” I replied, wondering why a random boy you met in a park would be offering to teach a stranger how to skateboard of all things.

“You just seemed like a skater girl. Don’t ask me why. Anyways, you’ll change your mind after I teach you.” You stated with a smug undertone, as it was already accomplished, and that just further ruined the first impression.

Sending you a skeptical look, I asked, “Really?”

Tucking the skateboard under your arm, you answered, “You’ll be telling me how much you love me.”

How I wish that we could go back to that time, to a summer where you confessed and I was by your side. I went to find you the day before I was supposed to be heading back to university and asked you if you were willing to wait another year.

You said that you couldn’t, that it’s too hard.

I, in the rush and hurt of the moment, whispered, “I wish I never met you.” I didn’t turn around fast enough to miss the look in your eyes filled with utter betrayal and sadness.

I returned the next year, just a few months before my grandpa passed away, and asked him about a boy named Jeon Jungkook. “He’s at the hospital,” he said, and I felt my heart stop.

“He was hit by a car a few days ago and has been in a coma since the accident. Let me tell you, ever since last summer, that boy has lost the stars in his eyes. I betcha it was a girl who broke his heart…” Grandma rambled, completely unaware of the sound of my own heart shattering.

After I told the nurses I was your girlfriend, they let me in. When I found you in the hospital bed, you looked frail and small.

It’s been too long Jungkook, and you never liked to keep me waiting. I promise that if you wake up and I’ll never ask you to wait for me again. I’ll hold onto you and never let you go.

Your turn, Captain Hands: 🌄, 👀, 🧸

Dude.

You know I am super fucking indecisive and you are gonna make me choose *a* favorite scene in BL?!

ONE?!?!

When there's every crying scene in The Eclipse? When there is the Alan, Wen, Jim fight scene or the Heart confrontation scene in Moonlight Chicken, when there is the four minute continuous shot in Old Fashioned Cupcake, or the eight minute continuous shot in My Tooth, Your Love?! When there is the Bad Buddy rooftop scene, and the He's Coming to Me rooftop scene? When there is fight scene after fight scene in 180 Degrees Longitude Passes Through Us? The gay boy cuddle pile in I Promised You The Moon? When there's the "i'm hungry" scene in KinnPorsche? The cigarette kiss in Only Friends, the "I know you're hurting" scene or the "are you half-assing the homosexual lifestyle?" scene in What Did You Eat Yesterday? When there is the Christmas episode of Our Dining Table?

You want me...to pick...ONE?!

Fine.

🌄

Favorite Scene in a BL

I Told Sunset About You, Episode 3. The smelling scene, (I am assuming like the other one that this gif is misattributed to Nini and is actually from @liyazaki)

This scene short-circuited my brain, changed my DNA, altered me at a cellular level. You got my messages about this scene, Benjamin. You know it made me tear at the curtains and eat the wallpaper. You know I spent hours just staring up at the ceiling. I watched this scene four times in a row and cried every time. I was transfixed. I barely breathed. The power, the magnetism, the pull. The way the tension builds, the lack of music, silence only interrupted by the sound of their breathing. The promised of how this could have progressed, if Teh didn't feel for breasts that weren't there. If Teh didn't slam a door down on his desire. You know I eat that shit for breakfast, that type of internal fight. That fight against what you want, what you need, what you crave. Teh can't accept quite yet what his feelings for Oh are, even as he is so clearly intrigued, drunk on Oh's scent, in love. Talk about power.

👀

What do you think about love triangles in BLs?

I think to be a love-triangle there has to be a level of uncertainty as to who the main character is going to end up with. As such, I think there are honestly very few love triangles in BL, and even fewer that are well executed. I think the majority of "love triangles" I see in BLs tend to be unrequited loves rather than a love triangle. I feel like usually the main couple is never really interested in the side character that is pursuing them. I think I can probably count on one hand the number of actual love triangles in BL.

Oh, Bas, Teh

Neo, Miw, Shin

Tony, Jean, Kat

and let me throw in a non-traditional one: Wang, Sawsimol, and Inthawut.

While I do think that Bas is kind of a victim of the narrative, and I didn't see a relationship between Bas and Oh going anywhere, based very much on how much Teh and Oh were both drawn to each other and capable of hurting each other. But Oh tried it, and I think Oh would have continued to try with Bas for quite some time.

Tony, Jean, and Kat was not a love triangle I particularly cared about, but I appreciated that there was just a casual inclusion of a character being attracted to multiple people, and engaging in physical intimacy with both people, having that attraction be confirmed by both people but still being rejected by Jean and then pursuing Kat.

I think Jojo knows what the fuck he is doing with love triangles #neohastwohands

🧸

Friends to Lovers or Enemies to Lovers?

Enemies to lovers all day, every day.

It's about the sexual tension! It's about the endless pursuit of one another! It's about the emotional complexity! It's about being doomed by the narrative, or rebelling against the narrative, or being changed for the better or the worse! It's about the seeing the worst parts, the broken parts, the angry, and hurt, and monstrous parts of people and loving them anyway. Enemies to lovers feels so queer to me, in the same way that loving Halloween feels so queer to me, in the same way that stories about monsters feels queer to me. It's something about being seen as inherently bad, irredeemable, villainous, or sinful, and being gifted love despite.

reading that very fun piece against queer presentism & thinking again about the idea of the literary canon

the main contentions in this piece are that queer writers ought to look for historical queer writing, and that there's a lot of it which is often & unjustly ignored, to our detriment. at least some of the problems the article writer is getting at seem to me to be historiographical, which is what i say about nearly everything. anyway it helpfully lists several things i'd never heard of, alongside some things i had. i am admittedly a lazy reader & as a result not at all well-read. most of my interesting or difficult reading was done in school, which i don't think is that uncommon.

you can kind of tell that this is common to some extent because on tumblr where there's a strong interest in evidence of historical gay people, there's a continual air of surprise around evidence of queer lives & a particular focus on arguing that certain people you've already heard of are gay (shakespeare was gay! fight your english teacher about it! keynes was gay! fight your econ teacher about it! they don't want you to know!!). i don't entirely disagree with this preoccupation—i spent my fair share of time arguing with teachers—but it seems kind of sad, honestly! as a dull & boring gay myself i like to hear about the less- and even non-famous historical gays. but more importantly there's more writing out there than they teach in school, & as various ongoing astroturf campaigns make unpleasantly evident, what makes its way into school libraries & onto school curricula is extremely political.

i guess this is the question i find most interesting. whence canons, wherefore canons, will we ever be done with them? probably the solution instead of long tumblr posts is to actually read a) more books and b) scholarship about those books, plus what other very clever people have said about canons, but i am simply not going to do that because my focus is shot & i am, anyway, a fool.

so a few things, i guess:

1. many people do most of their expansive reading & get a sense of what they like & what literary history looks like from school, which is a solid intention of high school & college literary survey classes.

2. these surveys tend to focus on a certain set of works, which are understood to be both good & influential or important, and are thus 'canonical.'

3. there's a lot of fighting about what goes or doesn't go in the canon or whether we ought to have a canon at all; the survey of literature with which one is usually presented in one's eleventh grade english class or one's required freshman english class or whatever tends to be eurocentric, white, male, & straight, which sucks

4. there have been various initiatives to open the canon, with mixed success; my own high school education was comparatively fairly wide-ranging (we read achebe, morrison, ondaatje, and wang wei, in addition to our shakespeare, steinbeck, and austen). but consider, e.g., 'the yellow wallpaper', which was not an enormous success in its own time but was successfully championed by feminist scholars of the 1970s, who argued that it reflects an important sort of 19th century women's writing. kate chopin, too, benefited posthumously from this activism. there are probably others whom i am failing to think of, due to knowing almost nothing about anything.

5. why not argue for expanding the literary canon? why not argue that some of these writers ought to be taught in school? i love the focus on the queer self-education, but why stop there? the piece includes a call to publishers (print these older works anew! make cheap editions, new translations, accessible anthologies!) but none to curriculum composers, who surely look for what is available but can also generate demand in a way which is miserably familiar to anyone who works in a library & abruptly finds themselves expected to produce >15 copies of some school book on no notice.

6. is it just passé now to talk about the canon? are we anti-canon? this seems kind of pointless to me because surely we are all still going to be (peripherally, at least) subjected to AP english & so on for several more years, & we may as well try to get the kids to read some interesting things. i don't really see how we could get out of The Canon, however limiting we find it; it seems kind of unavoidable to me that we should have some sort of list of widely-known, well-read literature which is generally understood to be good, useful, representative, or educational in some way.

but if you got this far please do feel invited to comment!
