i want to give a bit of attention to jo cooking for yw. We know from his flashbacks that no one has ever done that for him, he was used to prepare ramen for himself and going out to buy food and now someone is cooking for him, my baby needs to experience this too
admitting to tj that he loves him would be equal to ground him right now which is something that Ian doesn’t and can’t want cause he self loathes himself, he doesn’t think of being worth of that love and he’s truly convinced of being the cause of tjs pain and problems
Dear fucking lord. The only reason why he uses “ian” too is bc he lives in a western country full of white bitches where -if you don’t remember- he also suffered racism for his whole life. DONT YOU DARE ERASING HIS KOREAN ROOTS AND CULTURE FOR A FUCKING SHIP

“Youngwoo” I turn off my brain almost anyone who still insists on calling Ian “Youngwoo”??? Nah you’re a Tjian shipper and you don’t care about IAN!
it’s been crystal clear until now tbh, despite all the issues related to his way of acting. He just loves in a different way, not used/wanting to be vocal about it in a conventional way
«Hello?» silence.
«Hello? Look if it's a joke I'm going to hang up right now» an heavy sigh and then finally an answer.
«I missed your voice» hearing the familiar tone BH pushed the phone away, ready to hang up.
«Baek? Wait. No, don't do it. Please don't hang up»
I’m seeing so many

related things in my feed with the MC and the guy with the scar, holy shit if they ain’t end game then I think the world is a whole ass joke
not to be me but, flash news you don’t need exclusivity to have a serious relationship with. Poly people exists and also people that prefer to have an open relationship. That’s just jo’ preference and ian has been quite clear about that since the start
laughing cause half of my tl is just “it’s not endgame!” “It’s endgame!”
Genuinely who the fuck cares? It’s still too early for that, wet sand changes perspective with every chapter calm the fuck down
@kiminippa
which is why he tends to misinterpret tj’ actions, like his protection is like a “collateral effect”, he cannot understand the extent of tj’ feelings for him so he tends to push him away, like telling him to get married and this also confuses tj that by extent thinks ian doesn’t
btw, Ian did the same thing during their “break up”, he pushed the right buttons. He’s totally, always well aware of what he’s doing. It’s extremely impressive. It’s not easy to have such a lucidity in those situations. The character that he is ahh
when we said that he was still caring for him and doubting him of all the people was ridiculous they acted so petty. And here we are with proofs, as always
In italy we don’t say “I miss you”,
but we say :
“Ho sceso, dandoti il braccio, almeno un milione di scale
e ora che non ci sei è il vuoto ad ogni gradino”

“Quando saremo due non avremo metà
saremo un due che non si può dividere con niente.
Quando saremo due, nessuno sarà uno,
uno sarà l’uguale di nessuno
e l’unità consisterà nel due.
Quando saremo due
cambierà nome pure l’universo
diventerà diverso.”

oh, yeah, it must been that. So since surely the guilty would have been too much for him let’s just throw him into a prison alone and let’s totally erase every possible or leading a normal life cause a bold big “criminal” will be always marked in his cv
@neuvisoul
Be able to live with himself and with that guilt? There’s a reason TJ has a flashback of YW thinking “Shouldn’t I feel something? This reaction is not normal.” And making the decision of him serving 2 years after
A misunderstanding of one year is a misunderstanding.
A misunderstanding of ten years is an injustice.
A misunderstanding of a lifetime, from life to death, is fate.
Their fate was blighted.
ian keeps rethinking at jo’ words, unintentionally that man is pointing out to him his own shortcomings, leading yw to also understand what he did wrong (for not knowing better) with tj. Like when jo said that conflicts needs to be talked out not left alone
using “criticising ian” as an excuse to say horrible takes while being fully aware of what lead him to that and don’t even try to see things from his perspective even if you don’t like his actions is the reason why y’all shouldn’t been taken seriously. But that’s just mho
he talked with tobi about his mom, he stepped in to protect her from his father and then grabbed chris like a bag of trash 😭 my baby is the star as always 💜💜💜
its kinda funny to me that y’all weren’t expecting such a behaviour from someone that organised a gang rape for “revenge” but maybe im the problem here 🤷🏻♀️
i miss my precious pookie :((( give him back to me i need to shower him with love and affection, comfort food and scented candles :((( i wanna spoil him rotten like he deserves :(( please give me back my lil sunshine
so about the weird argument about who is the obsessed one or whatever, the main objective of their obsession told you everything already, loud and clear. Hope it helps
@kiminippa
love him the same amount. We know that he’s been unsure about this since before, like the flashback where jason told him that emotions are bound to change and he said that his own will never change but ian might . It’s just a lot of misunderstandings
we have a lot of chapters where Ian’ thoughts are the ones driving the narrative and still each time the focus goes to who’s the one he’s getting fucked by. Ian’s questioning his feelings? Nah, let’s focus on repeating the EXACT same shit about jo or tj over and over
Tj has all the right characteristics to bring hype. Dyk is obviously aware of this too reasons why it’s quite understandable that every chapter with him tends to blow up like that. Ian never got that spotlight. Jo neither. It belonged to tj since the start
ngl I kinda like their dynamics right now, its challenging ian to find answers . I just can’t help but feel anxious and bad everytime he brings up the camping or just in general when I remember that jo didn’t tell him the truth until now and that’s not what he deserves
he must’ve felt so alone, abandoned again. In the same very place where his mother also died. And let alone the fact that he was proven guilty for that despite it being self defence so that “murder” record will never leave his cv and basically decrease his chance of even
I’m not surprised about this, I just can’t help but feel bad. Even their first time, he wasn’t able to not act out of guilty even for that. I don’t deny that he wanted it, but there’s really so much to unpack about this, he keeps using the same pattern
Like ian is truly a force of nature. He survived for so long, then he cleaned himself from drugs (tj might have been the driving force behind that), took care of his own abuser, now he’s got a license and a clean job and also paid back all his debts
"You must take care of them" he sighed, giving his back to the other.
"You don't even need to say that, they're our children after all. But-" CY said going forward to get closer to BH. "please B, you don't need to do this. You don't need to shut us out and face all this alone"
The major reason why they’re relationship has been damned since the start is bc they both keep on sacrificing eo. They do know that, which is why they tried to draw a line. Right now they’re trying to put a stop this endless cycle of sacrifices
«CY is so hot in this shooting. The magazine will be a bestseller! Too bad that none of us have managed to sleep with him, aren't we pretty enough? I bet he got a very nice body! »
CY, listened to their conversation with a grin on his face, amused by their talk
I think that the “change” related to ian, should be him finally letting tj go. Up until now he’s still the same old teenager that fall in love with him, all the things that he went through he’s willing to do more, if it means that he can finally have him
let’s clear something, lmao, tj did what he did cause he GENUINELY WANTED TO PROTECT HIM not to get something back from him. So discourse like “how is he gonna repay that” just blatantly shows how y’all want him to keep letting that guilt eating him
If I told you I loved you, would you say that it's fucked up?
If I told you they're flying, would you say that you looked up?
don't take me for what I'm sayin', just take me for what I am
'cause this is where I'm stayin', my two feet are in the sand 🏝️

im starting to think that this wild obsession is something more in his character. He had other relationships before, this thing might be the (or one of the) reason why they ended . We don’t really know much about how he used to be or anything
my neutrality toward the ship discourse doesn’t mean that im going to ignore all the nuances and backstory between the characters. Heaven and hell knows how many times blamed tj over what he did, but explaining the core of his trauma doesn’t dismiss that
this thing that some of the comforting gestures towards yw are always related to food is so cute. Like tj bringing him dinner or buying from the old fast food they used to go, jo cooking for him, his boss giving him some barbecue to take home 🥺
@iloveyouroomie
Ian went himself to d k. he says this in the chap. and he stayed out for two days, ian going to david knowed what he were going to do, before in the party he and d.k. spoke each other,david probably invited ian to his house. he had bad intentions ok but i don't think it was raped
unbelievable how not even yw centred chapters are totally for him, since y’all love to address how one top or the other did good/bad to him. Holy shit we just know that he probably suffered not only from being forced to take drugs again but even sa, isn’t it enough to discuss?
ngl I quite love these chapters where ian is just getting or giving love or in general just peaceful 💜 I know that it’s not perfect and not gonna last but it still warms my heart to see him like this for a bit
lowkey think ian may have been embroiled into a prostitution ring or something of the sort
jason’s 1st thought of him was that he was too pretty for gang work and just a couple of panels later there’s already a grown ass man putting his hands on him 🥲

point is, he’s not an angel but not even a cold killer. You can’t judge him with extremes cause there too many nuances in between. But we can’t gloss over the fact that he is someone that can “turn off” his own humanity sometimes. Both sides are part of him
