This post goes out to our emotionally distant crotch rocket bisexuals & their emotional support himbos!

& let’s not forget our emotionally present if just confused scooter boys…

Between Us / Win & Team

I think about this scene a lot. There is something so wholesome that Team simply waited for Win to come back. He didn't assume that Win was gonna abandon him. He waited despite not being able to get ahold of Win. The level of trust required to truly just know that Win will show up for him. I also think it's a nice scene because in so many BLs, the characters are so quick to give up at every little thing. Which is what I expected here. Yet Team just waited and told Win he was okay and just wanted to sleep with him. He didn't get angry at Win and truly just was happy Win was finally there. Win felt so much more guilty about this than Team would have wanted him to feel.

Bonus of them being cute and cuddling

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

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

And it’s available now on MEB!

Day 6 - Fave line from your fave series

I have a few “favourite” BLs but the first one I thought of was this…

BL: Between Us

Now this line might seem simple, but it means so much to me.

The question of consent is so crucial and a common complaint from people on the internet is that consent isn’t “sexy”. Well to those that say that, please watch the two sex scenes in Between Us episodes 1-2, feel the tension, the electricity in the air, the way Win and Team both seem to be holding themselves back at the start but you can tell they are craving each other. They’re so unsteady but at the same time there’s a hunger, a longing, an anticipation that’s sharp and palpable.

And then Win breathes, “Can I kiss you?” And it’s so quiet but it’s like fireworks.

Consent is sexy. And when it’s written well into a scene, it’s goddamn poetry.

Makes Win Feel Wanted

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

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

That’s it.

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

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

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

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

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

Tagged by @sparrowmoth to share about my WIPs. Idk if anyone is actually all that interested in these, but on the off chance that you are, feel free to swing by my ask box with questions!

Rules: Post the names of your WIPs and open your ask box for questions about them.

Published WIPs

Right now, there's just one: Don't Come Any Closer (But Don't Move Away), Win/Team (Between Us/UWMA), rated M, 3 chapters out of ????

(I actually have written several chapters ahead but updates will likely slow down over time as i catch up to the place where I'm currently drafting. But we're getting to the good stuff now and ugh I'm so excited, I love this fic and these boys so much!!)

Unpublished WIPs

Greenhouse fic (better title forthcoming), a short and fluffy sequel to We're Gonna Need a Bigger Pentagram. Jesper/Wylan (Shadow & Bone/Six of Crows), rated T, one-shot. I have about 2k words written and because it's a Jesper POV, I'm planning to publish it later this month as part of "Jesptember," a celebration of our favorite Sharpshooter from the @i-can-read-to-him Wesper discord server.

A Week in the Life (tentative title), followup to the greenhouse fic and continuation of the Coven of Crows universe. Told through flashbacks to a time before WGNABP. Mostly gen crows-as-found-family with hints of Wesper, Helnik, Kanej, and Kuwei/Jesper (I forget if people use Kuwesper for just them or for them + Wylan oops). Probably rated T, probably 6 or 7 chapters. I've only written out a bit, the rest is all outline right now.

Other general ideas for Coven of Crows stuff that I'm happy to talk about!

The time travel crows fic (it has a title but I don't want to share it yet). All the crows ships, probably rated M, gonna be a longfic. I have some chapters written but I need to revise them because I changed my mind about some worldbuilding stuff. Time travel is hard to write, y'all!

Servant & Lever(age): a six of crows Leverage AU, rating TBA, length TBA, mostly just outlines at the moment.

I Won't Give Up Your Ghost, Julie & The Phantoms longfic, rated T or M. I have maybe 8 chapters of this written? But I don't know if there's enough people reading JatP anymore for me to maintain motivation when doing a longfic and I also got distracted, but I had a solid outline for the rest and may come back to it eventually

Untitled sexytimes fic, Palm/Neungdiao (Never Let Me Go the series), definitely rated E, one-shot. Will I ever finish this? Who knows.

A few other half-written or half-baked Thai BL fics, mostly M or E one- and two-shots, for shows like Moonlight Chicken, Tale of a Thousand Stars, etc.

I have some other Six of Crows ideas but I'm much less certain that I'll get around to writing them so I haven't listed them here

No pressure tags for anyone who feels like sharing (apologies if you've already done this and I missed it!): @oneofthewednesdays @hotpinkmurex @magicandpizza @ace-kaz-brekker @starwritebrekker

Between Us is like a good B-side. It takes some time to settle in.
