#we are the series ep 1

[alaanz]

I loveeeee We Are the series. This show is so silly and adorable and lovable. I couldn’t couldn’t ask for more.

So glad that it’s friendship group focused for the main cast. I absolutely adorreeeee cute friendship groups. And these guys make me feel so warm inside. Love that this ep was just about some silly little guys having fun and getting drunk together.

This is everything I need right now. So let’s keep the good vibes going.

What I’m also lovinngggg is that one of the main majors is fine art. I used to study fine art in school and am currently studying art history and curating. So tbh a lot of the art scenes was just me trying to see whether what they were doing actually made any sense.

And my experience so far is that they looked up abt the fundamentals and just said fuck it. And now we have this, which I’m so happy about. Heating this class of SECOND year students pull an all nighter to finish a drawing of an apple really gives me the joy I need when thinking abt the amount of uni stuff I stuff have to finish.

Like yes, show me Q give Toey a lesson on shading when his drawing had great shading (because it’s printed out). I love it so much. I very much hope we continue to get this insight into their course life. I need to know everything they’re doing. And hey, maybe next week we’ll get to see them drawing another big piece of fruit. I can’t wait.

And with the characters, they all seem great. There’s so one really that I don’t like. The dynamics are all very engaging and actually really fun to watch. So I hope this keeps up in the coming weeks. I guess we’ll have it wait and seeeee.

Unknown Episode 5 & We Best Love Episode 5

there is like zero times I have seen phum studying on screen and he's in engineering which is Not something you can do without studying so the correct conclusion is that my man's literally just in uni to spend his dad's money and I respect that deeply 🙂‍↕️

normally, kids in dramas make me roll my eyes and I try to ignore them.

But this absolute joy of a person is the exception.

Nina's giving everything. she's a really good actress and I really enjoy her scenes. I was pleasantly surprised and hope to see her in other things soon!

I think that the final showing a Tyme 4MP montage at the start of the episode are making people think that it's the only place there is Tyme's 4MP in the show and that Great & Tyme's 4MPs are completely exclusive to the person having the 4MP but I really do not think that's true, I really still think that some of Tyme and Den's scenes (also some Tyme's scenes where people are talking behind his back), especially the one with Den trying to get Tyme to be more humane with his patients are fully Tyme's or somewhat mixed with Great's, I really think that if the emotions are strong enough that they make the 2 out of body experience timelines mix because their hearts stopped at the same time, and that's why Tyme banging on the bathroom door was resonating in Great's 4MP

my stand in ep 4 thoughts, feelings, etc

WOW WA WE WAA THAT SURE WAS AN EPISODE HUH - happy to report i went back through the episode slowly this week and took notes and really tried to gather everything i wanted to say (but i will inevitably forget something)

🌸 ok disclaimers because i have a lot of them for this particular episode 🌸

i'm just a silly guy on the internet, i'm not an expert in mental health, psychology, body language, whatever. most days i can't even take care of myself. i'm just saying things recreationally.

PLEASE do not put novel spoilers in my replies, reblogs, or tags without a warning notice. i've got an itchy blocking finger for it these days.

i am treating ming and joe and everyone involved in this show as if they were real life human beings. ming was not born some mustache twirling villain sent from hell to make joe miserable. joe is not some pure angel descended from the clouds to do no wrong. everyone in this show exhibits very human behavior and that can be distressing under certain circumstances. i'm just going to comment on them as humans. i'm not interested in a round table discussion on why a character is irredeemable, the scum of the earth, etc. i'm just putting my thoughts out there and you can take them or leave them.

🌸 alright yucky disclaimer time over 🌸

the episode really just picks us back up where everything left off - and yet joe still made ming breakfast, and ming isn't stupid (well right now at least,) he knows something is off.

i am confused why tong needs to get married on this specific day. and like bro how fast are you getting married? relax. the whole thing is just unstoppable force (trajectory of this producers career) meets immovable object (tong's fuckass stubbornness) and the collateral damage is massive.

and then there's the question of did joe ever want to play a lead? or did he let his impulsiveness and hurt put a target on his back? (only emphasized by the fact that everyone assumed joe would turn down the role)

i DO apologize for all my doubt surrounding wut. he, ja, and may are the only people in this show with any god damn sense. maybe jojo and yim. we'll see.

getting into the confrontation at joe's work, i really don't think it's that surprising when we keep in mind ming genuinely has no fucking clue what is going on. all he knows is joe woke up, was acting weird, didn't come home, and then told him to pack up his shit and leave with ZERO explanation. like, joe's completely in the right, but i'd also be confused as fuck. (i wouldn't go to someone's work about it but, y'know, we know ming acts in extremes.)

and to me this is where it really became obvious that joe has always been able to overpower ming, to get away from him, as we have seen joe's physical prowess, we've seen what he's capable of, but he never uses his body to move ming away from him - that's not who joe is, he's not someone that would put his hands on another person like that. it's just another way ming and joe are the direct antithesis of each other.

it's my thought that the argument escalates because ming is used to getting everything he wants - except for tong, and now joe. when joe begins to push him away and deny him his substitution for tong i think ming lashes out in his hurt with a thought of "it's happening again, why doesn't anyone want me?"

i will say while i do believe sol has good intentions for the most part his white knighting is getting a little irksome. while convenient, it just shows how much he's still hovering and laying in wait for a chance with joe - he, too, is not respecting joe's wishes. no is a complete sentence, sol.

and then things continue back at home and joe finally, finally throws ming's words back at him: if i'm so terrible to be with, if you're so great, why are you wasting your time with me?

and ming doesn't have an answer. what ming DOES have is another back embrace, arms wrapped around joe as he asks "don't you love me anymore?" but is he asking joe or tong?

"although i'm not as good as tong" even now joe's rampant self worth issues are still at play but at least he finally knows he's worth more than whatever this is.

then the phone rings and to me, ming looks skittish. he looks shaken. he's never seen joe so angry and he's scared and as the call progresses that fear morphs into rage when sol calls joe. and the thing is, regardless of who played the main role, ming was never going to be happy. it was either going to be joe or tong playing opposite sol and neither of those things would have been acceptable.

and then i said, out loud, in my quiet office: OH! and promptly lost my shit in the group chat.

ming doesn't look wholly present after his act of violence. his face is vacant, like he isn't completely seeing or grasping what he's just done. i get the impression that ming isn't mentally well; stress and fear and anger have a way of making people do really fucking stupid things and as these things happen you risk falling into the sunk cost fallacy - you've already gone this far, you can't stop now - which all aligns with the obsessive behavior we've seen from ming in the past.

as joe wakes up and they talk once again joe doesn't blame ming, he blames himself for not seeing the writing on the walls even though it was written in invisible ink.

"all these times we were together did you ever love me?"

"you can't tell?"

again, so much of the blame and emotional responsibility of their situationship is put on joe and ming refuses to communicate any of his feelings, perhaps because he doesn't know how to after repressing everything for so long.

WE DIDN'T GET HOT KINKY CHAINED UP SEX THOUGH, WHY DOES GOD HATE ME SPECIFICALLY

but the way joe looks at ming as they linger there in the wake of joe's request looks like a goodbye, the way his eyes soak in every detail of ming's face. despite all of this and the nightmare it has turned into he did love ming, perhaps still does, and he does have some of those good memories he was so desperate to keep.

though like.. joe.... maybe we could consider a different career path??? instead of just jumping to risking our lives? like sure food service sucks, cashiering sucks, etc. but you aren't in danger of falling off any cliffs, you know? and let's be real, he could just go into modeling with those looks.

it's my impression that when ming calls joe he looks haggard, like he's lost numerous nights of sleep (and we really don't know how much time has passed) but either way it does seem like he's at least done some amount of reflecting. his voice comes across soft, subdued, and sincere.

and after everything, back in the present, we see ming. he's still in the apartment, desperately calling joe's name all these years later, still unable to sleep and waiting for joe to come home just like he asked him to years ago.

maybe ming never wanted to enter the entertainment industry before, but he has now. perhaps it was never for the attention or the money, maybe he chose to promote those watches because it was a reminder of the gift from joe. and maybe this job, in this specific industry, is the closest he can feel to joe now. and maybe with new influence and connections ming can find out why he was never able to tell joe he loved him before he lost him.

WHO KNOWS, NOT ME, CAN'T WAIT TO FIND OUT THO

Back to report that I have seen the first episode of the Fallout tv show on Amazon Prime and it fucking slaps. Along with this, The Last of Us (HBO), Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Arcane: League of Legends (obviously), and many more, we can now say for certain that we are in the un-official golden era of video game adaptations (at least if it stays the course *knock on wood*).

Just spending my morning studying pictures to confirm that Qian has an eyebrow scar but Chris Chiu does not because I'm feeling so normal about this show

I actually love how playful and silly Chain can be, but he just seems to often feel the need to be the mature one and so he doesn't show it often?

Peaceful Property ep 1 was everything!!!

^Those two comments are me thirsting over adorable Tay and playboy New

It was so fun! I’m fully invested in poor little rich boy Home who will learn the true meaning of his name by learning to care about others and form real lasting bonds with them, and poor traumatized Peach who will learn to turn his curse into a gift and help spirits move on as he regains his confidence and love of cooking!

And this show is hilarious! At one point I had to pause the video and just sit there and cackle out loud cause I was having such a good time! 😄

Catch me tuning in every Wednesday for more!!

GMMTV sometimes start their shows off strong then have bad endings 📉 but this show took *forever* to film so I’m really hoping that won’t be the case with this one! Fingers crossed they took their time to do it well!! 🤞🏽
