Ongsa, are you telling me your only employee can't open the shop without you?

[moonisnot-a-bloomingrose]

See this is why I think that Ongsa is rich maybe not nakhin nakhun rich but his cafe is just a hobby project being funded by his mother.

Either that or its about to go bankrupt

[whatever-letmebe]

well, I would never trust Ongsa with a secret ever again

[moonisnot-a-bloomingrose]

Right!!!!

Wasn't Ongsa the one who warned Phatsa not to let people know? That Phatsa had to be careful. I would be so pissed

[moonisnot-a-bloomingrose]

The doctor did a blood and urine test for Phatsa's pregnancy test. Will someone be able to tell that he is a Pure Omega through that?

[slonekaru]

I knew it was going to be the woman that was with Sangnuea!!!

[moonisnot-a-bloomingrose]

WHO TOOK THAT PICTURE? IF I WAS A COP (🤮) I WOULD DEFINITELY THAT PIC OS STAGED / SET UP

[slonekaru]

Nakhun thank you for coming through on this!

[moonisnot-a-bloomingrose]

He has dropped the ball on a few things but he is learning

[slonekaru]

The age-old question of M-Preg!

[moonisnot-a-bloomingrose]

Dont worry about it 😉

[slonekaru]

Everyone is finally standing up and standing with Naphitch against his father! Even his step-mother!

Just throw that man off and roof and be done with it!

[moonisnot-a-bloomingrose]

They need to kick Naret out of their house

[heretherebedork]

Phatsa sees right through dear father-in-law and takes NO arguments. That man read him like a book and sent him out of the room with his tail between his legs.

[moonisnot-a-bloomingrose]

I have been waiting for Phatsa to take him down. I can't wait for phatsa to win a pheromone fight with the dad and that's when Naret realises that phatsa is the pure omega he is looking for

[feychild1225]

The scene that was in the TV version but for some reason was cut from the IQIYI version

[moonisnot-a-bloomingrose]

What was the reason?

[fandomfairyuniverse]

He found a way for ongsa to know what his pheromones smell like shut the hell up

[moonisnot-a-bloomingrose]

I don’t want to agree with nares but maybe just MAYBE the pure omega should be with Nakhin. Nakhin would love and support all his husbands and teach his brothers how treat a partner

[baibixin]

First in my bloodline to see an omega nest on tv

[boybeetles]

You know technology literacy is dying because I saw this meme with 76k likes

F11 the full screen button? You’re scared of the full screen button? F10?? It opens the menu bar???

[boybeetles]

Computers are so scary what if I accidentally hit F12 in a steam game and it takes a screenshot. What if I press shift + F12 while in word and accidentally save my document 😖

[yetanothergreyjedi]

[shower-thoughts-last-responder]

If you had to learn what the F keys on your computer do through me reblogging this post, then I'm glad you did. Computer literacy is not a skill that gets taught anymore, and it is absolutely one that needs to be taught in order to be learned. Don't ever feel bad for not knowing something, but ☝️ don't ever stop learning learning about your environment, the tools you use, and especially the people around you

[headspace-hotel]

Never stop learning+ Never stop sharing what you learned

[bisexualboysbroadcast]

now that i’ve had time to digest (read: go appropriately insane) i’m wondering if saengnuea knows who napitch is? because he’s been shown throughout the episodes to know very well what being an omega means, and especially the associated risks of omegahood, including getting bitten. but as @prokiathepro pointed out when he approached napitch he went in neck first?? so like did he WANT to get bitten by napitch? does he know who napitch is? (even if napitch doesn’t know him?) or is he really just happy to potentially (?) get bitten by a stranger? mhmmm thoughts thoughts

[moonisnot-a-bloomingrose]

Omg I was thinking the same thing saengnuea feels like he would do that they stole phatsa right out from under him. He would try and marry into the family just to stay close to phatsa the coolest omega saengnuea has ever seen.

Once he realised that nakhin like ongsa he moved on to the third brother

[delesaria-blog]

My condolences to Nakhun/Cup shippers, but it looks like Nakhun/Shirt is endgame.

[vintageandroid]

i made a post like this before but I can't find it now. so. I'll just redo it.

What's the first "big news story" you remember from when you were a kid?

It's something I love to ask mixed-aged groups sometimes because I think it's really interesting to see the responses. I've gotten answers from the Olympics of [whatever year] to Watergate to more recent stuff from my niblings.

My first news thing I remember is the OJ Simpson trial. I vaguely remember watching the news with my grandparents before that, but that's the first story I remember, in part because my second grade teacher had us go play so she could watch the verdict 😂

[absolutelynotclassicusernam-blog]

I remember walking down the street and seeing a sign protesting George W. Bush’s war on Iraq, so I think that.

[gotmehookedonthekpop]

I remember how Ryan White contracting AIDS from a blood transfusion forced the US Government and the Reagan administration to acknowledge that AIDS existed.
