nothing delights me more than people going "aight i'll bite" in regards to bad buddy and then 12 eps later their lives have been irrevocably changed and they're forever trapped on the rooftop with the rest of us

[telomeke-bbs]

With nothing that I'm watching airing today, and with all the Bad Buddy three-year anniversary content on my dash, I decided to rewatch ep 1 of the series.

And it finally hit me. Why Pa is wearing the Dr Seuss t-shirt this ep.

Un pez, dos peces, pez roco, pez azul / One fish, two fishes, red fish, blue fish.

I always thought it was just that the blue was for her brother, Blue Boy Pat, and the red writing (and fish) for Red Rascal Pran...but the fishes...I just couldn't work out why this particular t-shirt slogan was being used in a show full of t-shirt slogans that made excellent comments on the narrative...

But today, in my sixty-fifth hundreth re-watch, I finally realised. Fishes. Which are usually in water. Just like Pa being rescued by Pran in the lake in the flashback later in the ep.

Pa, in the orangey-red shorts and lime green top. And with Pat rounding out the colours in the white vest.

And just like that, I can rest easy.

"let's pretend to be boyfriends to design this bus stop" is, i firmly believe, still a situation that has only been proposed once (1 time) in all of media history. and of course the culprit would be pat napat jindapat

Hi hello, a bad buddy thought a day will keep the doctor away and the brain rot will continue!

Bad Buddy Thought Of The Day: Pran is fiercely independent and needs no help. He CAN do things on his own and he WILL do it too! Except when Pat enters the scene. Because Pat is his exception. Pat is his rock he can rely on when being fiercely independent and competent is just exhausting or just makes him sad. He has Pat and he can hide in his arms and his back or just listen to his voice and he knows. There is someone out there to hold my hand and give me strength.

Anon, you are so correct! BB keeps us all healthy (ignore those brain scan results, it's fine, it's fine)

The weight of his parents' expectations was exhausting. Attending club after club, cram school after cram school, always fighting for top place—he could feel his grip on it all boughing under the the pressure. He wondered how long it would take him to snap.

But then came the river.

And slowly, slowly, Pat reached out a hand to help him hold it all up, and in return, Pran reached out to help carry his burden as well. It didn't change the weight, but it was easier when they could share the load. Essays, tests, match days, competitions, music lessons, each slotted into a careful tally of wins and losses negotiated to keep everyone happy.

And that left time for the silly, for the fun, for the ridiculous. How fast can you run up those stairs? How many sweets can you eat in 30 seconds? How long can you hold your breath?

And somehow, the competing became fun, became something to look forward to, became something that brought them closer instead of a wedge pushing them apart.

He didn't realise how much he relied on it until he didn't have it anymore.

Thought of the day, of course, turned into ficlet of the day for me 😂 and now I feel like seeing if other people have thoughts on this.

How do Pran and Pat support each other? How important is that support to each to them?

If you want, reblog this with your thoughts, ficlets, edits, gifs, whatever you want! We could have a little Bad Buddy chain post 😊

Bad Buddy Episode 5! We were all changed.

Here's a reminder:

I will never be the same again.

[telomeke-bbs]

Let me get this out first. I LOVE the music in bbs. It is so so good. Actually, it has been a while since I watched something that uses music this well. And this is coming from someone who doesn't usually pay attention to music when watching stuff. But here the music was used so well I couldn't help but notice it. Especially in ep 5 and ep 8. Oof too good. @airenyah I am now ready for those tags you mentioned before. It was not easy for me to stop myself from digging into it right then.

[telomeke-bbs]

@airenyah sweetie thanks for tagging me! 🥰 Looking forward to your Pat meta about his feelings and his awareness – you've been dangling that in front of us and I long to read it! And @nnnn99999 welcome to the club! All kind-hearted people in the BBS fandom. 💖

‌

Now that I have finished watching bbs I truly understand why some people have not moved on from it even after so long. I will be one of those people too. There is so much to talk about and think about. There are so many things I noticed but also so many I missed. I know I will have so much fun rewatching. I had such a great time watching it. And I am so glad I was able to experience it spoiler free for the first time. Ah I just love it so much.

I was mentally sumarizing Bad Buddy as "college Romeo & Juliet where the violence is stricktly emotional" and then remembered than Pat does, in fact, get shot.

I finished watching ep 1 and 2 of bad buddy series and I love it already. I really want to watch more but it's already super late and I need to go sleep. Here are my thoughts on this series so far.

The production is really good so far.

The music really stands out to me. It is used a lot but doesn't feel overdone. I need to rewatch to be sure if it's as intentional as I think it is, but the music adds context to the scenes which is fun.

This show is so funny. Not in a cringey way either. More like a lighthearted and natural way. Like I found myself genuinely laughing out loud at times.

Pat, Pran and Pa are so adorable.

The baby versions of the characters are so cute oh my motherly heart.

I am really digging the PatPran frenemy dynamics. I need to see more before I elaborate why I like their dynamics so much. I just adore them already.

When I look at Pat I just see a husky.

Pran seems to be the most self aware character so far. I want to see if he will be the first one to notice the dynamic shift as their relationship changes.

Seeing the PatPa sibling dynamic made me appreciate my sister so much. Sure, she often uses the older sister card to make me do stuff, but at least she is not gross. Also she gives me tasks, not chores. Yes Pat I am telling you to stop making Pa do your chores. Justice for younger siblings who have to do chores for their older siblings!

The PatPran fake fighting is so funny. Baby PatPran falling over when their hands are a mile away from each other was so hilarious. The adult version of the fake fighting is actually one of my favorite scenes so far. I need to revisit this when I am done watching the whole thing because I know there's a lot I missed here.

I hate when parents try to indoctrinate their children. Just let them breathe okay? Have your feuds and friends and whatever without dragging your children into it. Also stop putting pressure on your children and let them do what they want. Just give them the freedom to grow. They are their own person, so let them explore themselves on their own. Ugh I'll leave it at that for now but I already have so much more to say about both sets of parents and I can tell its probably going to get worse. Like I know they love their children a lot but ugh. I just know these parents are going to piss me off later on in this show. I just know it.

That one scene where Pat touches Pran's face without washing his hands after peeing was so gross. I know Pat is gross in general but that was too much.

The number of times I went 'boys being idiots' in just 2 eps is astounding. This is the brand of idiocy I have only ever seen within a group of boys. These boys sent me back to my school days. I have seen these exact scenes and conversations happen. Especially the one where Pran's friends tease him about being hit on. I will never forget that tone of voice. Even the getting ready to fight at the drop of a hat is so familiar. The number of times I have seen boys getting all up in each others' faces for the stupidest reasons imaginable are countless. I have never seen boys actually fight in school but I had a guy friend tell me all about their fights outside of school. Then these same boys who were punching each other because one hit the other with a paper bullet launched from a rubber band slingshot(they were having a war in class and I almost got hit multiple times) would hug each other and jump around when the school team won a sports match. Also, their collective IQ seems to magically disappear when they are together and they are left with half a braincell to be shared by the whole group. That's why they become boys being idiots.

OhmNanon are undoubtedly the stars of this show and not just because they are the main characters. They are doing such a great job of selling me their characters. Their scenes together are so fun to watch.

I am going to write a separate post about Ohm Pawat specifically because I already have so much to say about him.

Yeah I think that's about it. Actually there is more but I want to see how some things develop before I comment on those. @airenyah I am so glad I can share this with you. I love it so much already. I totally understand the obsession, I am quickly getting there too. Like I want to rewatch it already. I knew I was going to like bbs considering our mutual love for simm and ha but I really didn't expect to like it so much already. I didn't even watch the trailer, I just jumped into the 1st ep directly. And well I am having a blast!
