I've decided its the problem of being a small town gay kid. Like there's 2 other gay people to choose from and they're all dolts, so why not latch on to this one guy who isn't even gay? I mean, he probably went on Grindr illegally at once point and realized that the nearest non-creeper dateable guy was 40km away. At least this guy isn't handsy and has a stash of chocolate bars. Sadly, he made the mistake of assuming that just because a guy doesn't ever talk about girls he'd like to date doesn't mean that he's secretly gay. And just because he doesn't make a move on you doesn't mean he respects you. It might just mean that he's odd and in love with dead architects.

Well, he's in love with the guy who works at the candy store. You can't expect him to want to suck on celery stalks.

The person who introduces the idea of 'towel hooks' and 'towel rods' to rich Thai people is going to make a fortune. Right now, all the $$ seems to be going to installing fixtures strong enough to support the weight of an adult male being slung up during sex. But for an additional $5.00 they could install a hook so they wouldn't have to always walk around looking for towels or putting on a bathrobe because a towel isn't handy. I know BL fans will hate me, but a guys gotta make a living somehow and its clearly a need for these things that the bathroom design market isn't addressing.

I couldn't understand Asuka he was into such a dud until this episode. Hiiragi totally and very thoughtlessly took advantage of a vulnerable kid because he's too much of a dud to ward off female attention on his own. I want to slap Hiiragi and tell him that Gaudi is overrated.

The Sakuma candy store has to be the most mirthless candy store in the world. Would have been nice to have that flashback earlier on the history between Hiragi and Asuka. Asuka really needs to move on. He’s full of life and joy and if he must be in some kind of opposites attract love story, he should at least be with someone who can be joyful with him from time to time. He’s going to have to do all of the emotional work for the rest of his life and that doesn’t seem fair.

Takayuki probably thinks Shin is hitting on him. If Takayuki had a sex drive, he’d notice. But he does not.

I hope this series ends with Baiboon plugging two bullets into Danmai's head after knocking out half of Danil's teeth with a kick to the jaw. This boy is way too fragile to live in a mafia house, let alone get a job where he might have to walk outside by himself. I want this cub to show his inner bear.

You picked the wrong bathroom to apply B12 toner in, Baiboon. Go hang out in the other one and et Khom walk in to find out that not every part of you needs to be handled like its "You break it, you buy it" fragile. So from top to bottom, this is the gay mafia.

I was worried that everyone else was going to have sex on vacay but Kim and Kanmol. Still, Kanmol, dear...your lover comes up with every excuse in the world not to touch you unless he's drunk. You might want to think about how this will work out long term.

Yeah. Kind of sucks, but that's why open relationships end up not working.

It is an anthology series about the BL industry. Each 5 set episode installment focuses on a different pair. However, it is all set in the same fictional universe. Its like Y Destiny. Same characters, but different stories.

It can be any adult, really. If you’re a kid, any adult of unclear relationship to you can be addressed as an uncle or aunt as a sign of respect for their age. The old are always superior to the young. The shop keeper who you need something from can be aunt. The cab driver can be uncle. A teacher, though, is not called that.

I'm going to be curious about what this band plays. Peach has AC/DC and Nine Inch Nails stickers on his guitar and a Nirvana poster on his wall, and the kids clearly like boisterous head banging rock guitar. Screams "Three Man Power Chord Garage Rock Trio who do James Gang covers at keg parties." But its BL, so they'll probably sing Thai pop love ballads.

Lordy. If one more character mentions unprompted how wonderfully awesome Phayu is, imma gonna barf. Did we mention that he's rich, too? And super smart? And every boy and girl from miles around wants him? I'm sure when Rain experiences the exhilaration of anal penetration for the first time, he'll change his mind about his homophobia. It is Mame, after all. I'll watch, but I get the sense that this is just Tharn Type but with motorcycles.

No. Any close older friend becomes an aunt or uncle in Thailand. Although the confusion about the roles of family, friend, and lover is one of the themes of the series. Its o.k. to be confused. The characters are as well.

Looks like this was more of a Wabi Sabi side project to see if we'd be receptive to a new ship.

Don't be silly. They touched toes for 15 seconds! And it looked like Khim could flirt, in his surly grunty way.

If the father here talks about his death one more time and doesn't keel over, I'm going to scream. Please dad. All you talk about is your legacy when you aren't spouting off mindlessly about duty. Just die already. Enough foreshadowing. You want to die. We want you to, too.

Baibua, dear. You know how all the men seem to nod along but in the end reveal that they haven't actually been paying attention to what they promised? We don't ever really improve. Sorry I have to break it to you, but I hope your next role is in a "sisterhood rules the world" empowerment drama. You deserve it after this. et tu, Sun? et tu?

Never let Sun pack for a trip. Two days at camp and he gets out 10 shirts, none of which are appropriate for camping, no pants or underwear, but makes sure he has his skin products. Dear lord. Always start with the underwear and socks. Trust me. You can forget everything else and as long as you have those, you'll be good. People will be willing to lend your some lotion and a t-shirt. They will not lend you underwear.

Why did Sun have a mirror?

Finally, the origin of planty revealed and its...pretty sad, TBH. Khim appears to have stopped being happy 10 years ago.

Very confused about Thai graduation. They don't usually involve capstone rugby matches, do they? That dad couldn't even be bothered to show up for that is pathetic. And where was mom. These rich people suck more than any rich people in any Thai drama ever, and that includes a lot of sucky parents espousing traditional family relations. Khim needs to start shooting up heroin and spend his inheritance on loose women and theives. I mean, if playing the cello is considered to be an affront to family harmony, he might as well go whole hog with the reprobate playboy role. At least it would be more fun.

Yeah. I'm reminded of the character "Justin" on Ugly Betty who was very clearly gay, but everyone around him, even Betty's enemies at work, decided that his life was off limits until he was ready. I think they cancelled a surprise coming out party for him because they found out he still wasn't ready for everyone to know. So I'm curious. Did Uncle Man find him one day reading Attitude? Or did his mom encourage him to go out on a date and he said he wasn't interested?

I'm a bit sad that its only 4 episodes. That said, its not a 12 episode story. I would have liked to see a bit more background as to why Uncle Man and Mom thought Q was gay, as it seems that X shows up one day and they were already waiting for the day Q brought a boy home. I don't need much, but they jumped to the conclusion rather quickly. "A mom always knows" or "Uncle Man has gaydar" doesn't really cut it as an explanation. I don't need much, but it does seem that the adults were concerned about Q's sexuality for quite some time and at least in the opening, it didn't seem like they needed to be.

Its the only BL series that comes out on Wednesday. So its easy to make a slot for it.

There is very little chance that this ends well, IMHO.

Yeah. Frank/Mind seems a little bit superfluous to the story. For some reason, they decided that every one of the three musketeers needs to be paired by the end. Mook/Toy is fine. I'm glad they included it rather than make Mook into some kind of vacuous trophy the mains were trying to win in a competition. Turns out, she's rather nice and can make her own decision as to who she wants to date and isn't going to be a BL third wheel possessive girl. Hopefully she'll be a bit miffed that Q, X and the crew were wasting her time.
