Hold on, I've just had a wild thought bambi bounce through my consciousness 🦌..... and I say "wild" because this character hasn't even spawned onto the screen yet, but as we know, continuity was not in the team briefing anyway 😂
Isn't Amintra's mother meant to have been a spurned lover of Nakhun & co’s Dad? Because Old Father Dearest only ever cares about 'strengthening the bloodline' like crystal meth, rather than -gasp- feelings?! Is this where we're heading? The grand narrative lesson here? Follow thy heart toward yonder horizon, lest ye spawn decades of intergenerational scorn and vengeance? 🌅 flee, you fools! 😂😂😂
Hey it makes sense a few generations down 😂 Hua Yong is from a really powerful family with lots of half siblings 😂 Desire universe is now the future in my head
I like the father, he's annoying af! Can't wait to see his face when he realizes Phat is a pure whatever tf he…
I hope the floor cracks when his jaw hits it 😂 I need to hear a cathartic rumbling in the walls when the penny finally drops and he realizes he’s been an utter fkn turnip this whole time🍿😂
I was wondering the same thing why it had to be a son
Awwwww, a baby girl for each knee, with Daddy Nakhun's curls. Gramps can cry into his coffee, alone in the corner. I dont care about him 😂 Hilarious and adorable 🩷
I was wondering the same thing why it had to be a son
I want them to have a daughter now, just to be extra annoying for Nakhun's father 😂 but, this show has no one at the wheel so, I guess I just have to go with it 😂
The editing in that opening scene had me in stitches. What a spiritual experience 😂 Phatsa achieved full Pure Omega telepathic mastery, because he kept speaking while his lips ... stopped 😂 They blipped through dimensions and everything with that editing slice. Magic. ✨️
Listen, it's official now, Fairies and Sprites, they just don't care anymore. They know we're still going to watch it because we can.
Technical glitches aside, why are we so hyper focused on an Enigma grandson? Why not a granddaughter? Where’s the love for a little girl? A daughter raised by her daddies and doting uncles would be the safest child in the known universe. She wouldn’t even need an Enigma rank. Daddy Nakhun would go full atomic bomb if someone so much as scuffed her shoes 🛡️✨
Meanwhile, watching Phatsa and Nakhun have their dramatic conversation, my only working brain cell asked, uhhhh, hey guys, sorry to interpret this heart to heart, butt, if you two only knew your bloodline will someday unleash Hua Yong... you might pause, reflect, and reconsider the whole baby project entirely! 😭💀
I really do need to see Nakhun with a daughter though. I think he'd make a ridiculously devoted girl dad. Put a flower crown on that lion's mane 🌸👑
Oh, I know. I would be an omega pretending to be a beta, like Gao Tu in Desire. No pregnancy for me thank you…
I suppose I could be either, but I definitely lean into the classic Omega traits more, shy, timid, introverted, soft girl activities, and I naturally adopt every animal that crosses my path 😂 Honestly, if I had a partner like Nakhun, I wouldn't mind nesting in a fairy light tent, baking, and cutting flowers like a princess! 🌸⛺✨ Though I would definitely need alpha and I. to be in the Desire universe with the Protection for Omegas Society, and NOT this one where someone goes missing and the general consensus is just 'Oh well, another Omega bites the dust' 😭
Do you ever wonder who you would be, if you ever spawned into an Omegaverse world? 🤔 Because I absolutely wouldn’t be an Alpha 😂 I severely lack the stamina and red blood cells. I'd try, then get bored, yawn, and want a snack, and wander off 😂 I’m much more akin to cute, fluffy, non-aggressive creatures, like bunnies, puppies and capybaras, sloths etc Oooh, an Otter would be cute 🦦 If Phatsa can smell like wet earth, I shall smell like the river, like Wei Wuxian ☺️
So now I’m sitting here, with my lunch time thoughts, wondering would I be a cute little Omega or just a confused Beta sitting in the corner? Probably sensing a sudden shift in the air pressure and wondering why some people have started to grimace and pant? 😂
It’s a hot bath and a pizza kind of Saturday night. I don't think I have the stamina for whatever aggressively sour dish they’ve been simmering for ep 9.
My brain requires beige foods and bubbles, but I will be reading the comments from my vanilla scented lagoon 🧜♀️
Dude....what was that NC scene at the end of the episode....? Now I know people may not believe me when I say…
A few of us came to that conclusion last night but were greeted with pitchforks 😂
So we can only assume that is what they were doing, with an overhead shot to show us that the leg positions. No passionate devouring, just sweaty rubbing 😂
The pan out shows BJane on top and his leg is bent out, but LJane’s legs are closed between them. How does…it…go…
I did notice the leg positions as well but I didnt want to get harpooned out of cyber space 😂
The pan out gave away that the choreography was staged for aesthetics rather than actual anatomy, which made this unravelling of the heart, quite lukewarm. It was more like BJ straddled LJ's hip and was just dry humping. Unless of course they were? I guess I could convince myself? 😂
BJane being painted as a massive red flag makes the weird framing feel even more jarring. They've set up this eerie, obsessive 'secret room' plotline, (with the light on and the door ajar like a beacon at sea 🤔 ) yet the intimate scene itself felt so sanitized? instead of intense or grounded.
It might have to be where the actors and direction felt comfortable for those shots, since there wasn't much to use for body blocking ....
In context to this whole second arc. I do agree that the sex scene was suspiciously vanilla. Whether that was the actors choice or the direction, who knows? But it felt like it was unconciously matched to the more cute, domestic theme of this episode. Kids and sweaty passionate sex is not something you want to see together in the same hour 😂
But the momentum has suffered. I assume we're getting some happy fluffy dating days before it all goes to angst hell again next week? And we've been set up for that, but it's such a different tone from the rest of the series, that you can't help but feel like it has hit a speed bump and lagged, even though it still fits together?
We've been back and forth, is BJ trustworthy, the death of a supporting character, five years of distance, becoming working adults, yearning gazes across the office, that's alot of emotional debt to pay.
I think the director was maybe trying to go for a desperate, raw, primal pounding moment but it kind of looked more like a Sunday morning loving session 😂 Which is fine, but it's more stretching that back muscles than burning through all the lust and devastation.
I said in my OG comment, that I expected BJ to be angry, I wanted him to be, so he would either throw LJ out for more angst or conclude with rough sex. A culmination of everything we've seen in this middle arc. There's a lack of emotional payoff that I was kind of waiting on, and I guess others were too. It's not an attack on anyone's preferences. It's just an observation.
It's still winning it's trophy for Champion in it's category for me 😂
Well... hmm. That was certainly a side quest through the woods, wasn’t it? 🤣 Oh no ..... it's the last third ...
Episode 8 decided put a stop to the streamroller of 'Ow My Feels', to give us two Dad's and their wildly contrasting parenting styles, navigating an adopted son with a peanut allergy, and somehow, still digging a hole for me to trip over by the linguistics of American football vs. European football along the way. 😂 I cant believe I fell for that 🤦♀️
I’m all for structural foundation and I understand the necessity to set up Big Jane’s family dynamics, buuuuutt, spending that much precious runtime on Little Brother Jamie? It felt like revving a sleek, high performance engine straight into traffic. 🚗💨🛑😂
That said, I do track Little Jane’s logic here. Big Jane’s enabling style of protection isn't and won't do Jamie any favours. He's already spoilt by living in the luxury that he does. Raising him to rely entirely on his big brother’s power, he’s going to turn into one of those insufferable, "Do you know who my brother is?!" classic K-drama tropes. Nobody wants to see that.
Now, about that secret room reveal...
I expected anger. No, let me refine that. I wanted Big Jane to unleash absolute fury.
I have not read the original novel so, I can't compare, but BJ let's Little Jane off the hook far too easily. Where is the terrifying, shadowy black dragon I’ve come to revere? 😂
I fully anticipated iron clad resistance when LJ barged his way back in, especially after trespassing into a literal secret sanctuary. I realise it's of him and he might own some copyright of his image but still 😂 He wandered into that Dragon's den like a weeping fawn, but the moment LJ turns his eyes on him, BJ just melts like chocolate in the sun. 😭
He's a 70% dark chocolate dragon. Zero licorice, no salt, just cocoa butter and cream 😭
Meanwhile, there's a tiny xylophone at the back of my brain, incessantly chiming, hey, hey, hey, Weirdo, Dan is still out there somewhere, spending every waking breath cursing BJ’s name. Have fun with that....
That loose thread is driving my brain wild. Are we actually returning to that core mystery next week? Is that what's wrong with Jet? Because once again... sigh ..... this kid.
Somehow, his parents dont know about the gambling. Is he still gambling? Ohh boy ...
YouTube recommended me the preview of Ep 8, on which I delightfully clicked on, and then immediately buffered with a Durex ad to hit their ad revenue quota 😭
Google's algorithm said, "Hey, we see what you're watching, we know where this plot is going, and we are legally required to offer you protection." 😂
At first, I also joked endearingly that the stylist must have panicked over Heng's limb proportions, but novel readers have very gently pointed out that it is a character detail straight from the novel.
Little Jane likes over sized clothing.
He's a precious, soft boy peach, and now I'm imagining a very different skin to the character. It suits him, and it's a beautiful contrast to Big Jane's strict structure and broken rules.
I, too, like oversized and slouchy, up until the moment my well meaning mother yells at me for dressing like a bag lady 😭
Ai'yah, I have found myself within you my sweet Little Jane, and I am sorry for the soft and cute discrimination. I will do better, esp at being soft and cute 🩷 for I am flopsy bunny in a human disguise 😂

So we can only assume that is what they were doing, with an overhead shot to show us that the leg positions. No passionate devouring, just sweaty rubbing 😂
But yeah, they could arranged it in order to have more bits and pieces to pass in front of.
I had posted criticism already, so I thought if I added that I was disappointed in the sex scene, I was drawing a target on my back 😂
