I watched KinnPorsche and loved it so I'm going to ramble about my thoughts
Okay okay okay so I watched KinnPorsche over the weekend after being bummed about no BTS tickets. And by that I mean I binged 12/14 episodes on Saturday alone. I did not want to stop watching I was so hooked. (And I thought about staying up ngl)
It was so engaging. I really was hooked. I'm not huge on toxic romance/mafia, but I was really engaged in who was the mole(And then I accidentally got spoiled, but I still sat there slack jawed at the reveal but I was sad because I loved Jay in Cutie Pie and now he was the mole traitor) and the main vs minor family clan even though it all seemed kinda petty(But I think that's just poor portrayal tbh). And from the very first smile I was hooked on Vegas and Pete but like I never expected it to go like that.
Also Korn is an asshole and shot Porsche's dad and I don't care what anyone says. He should have been killed alongside Gun. Knowing he had Porsche and Chay's mother locked up in the same building they were in and not saying anything was unforgivable. No wonder the poor woman no longer speaks, she's been locked up in her suite for 20 years! And trickle truthing and manipulating Porsche.
I can't say he's worse than Gun because Gun was abusive to Vegas and said he and Macau wasn't worthy to be his sons(Macau!!! The high schooler!!!!) but they are both equally evil.
He is SO lucky Porsche is so deeply in love with his son. Porsche deserved to go scroached Earth.
But that's the thing. Kinn and Porsche are in love. Deeply, and I loved in. I did NOT like their first time, obviously, and winced, but like once they got in the woods and could just exist as Kinn and Porsche and the side hospital story. There was things Kinn did that pissed me off(Leaving Porsche in the dark about Tawan and Vegas, leaving them handcuffed together, waving off throwing Porsche in the cells because it was less than a day) but I also really loved the... Physical intimacy(Not sex) between them. The date. They were cute. They loved each other, despite the dark parts.
And something tells me that's unpopular(Or maybe that Kinn is hated, which is mayhaps very fair) but I like KP.
Tbh I hated the whole Tawan arc and didn't fully understand it.
VegasPete though. I don't know why but they had me obsessed with them from the first time Vegas smiled at Pete(Vegas liked Pete before he had to pivot to stealing Kinn's guy! It was Pete from the start!) and everything that followed. Seeing them break and when they were nothing but pieces, finding ways to reach out and make themselves into pieces where they could touch each other freely. And then they broke even more and fell apart but they still needed each other.
And then THEY get their cute hospital moment.
Idk it's just crazy. The torture scene in the minor compound where Pete just grins and takes pleasure is crazy. So often at work today my brain was like "Vegas and Pete" and played back ep 12.
They've imprinted on me.
Kim and Chay... Yeah, no. Lots of opinions there but can be summed up into: yeah, no. Would not be opposed to a good post canon fix it but also came across people shipping Macau and Chay and I'm like "oooh yeah." Honestly I wasn't huge on either character alone or together.
I really enjoyed the other characters. Tankhun was the kind of character that was annoying but eventually became "my annoyance." Some of them I think I'll appreciate more on a second watch when I'm not suspicious of everyone tbh(Mostly the bodyguard gang I think).
This is so long already. Can you tell I really loved the series?
Kinda sorry but I also really like rambling about things I enjoy.
Even though I don’t think I will ever be satisfied with my own writing, I do love writing so much.
And I want to thank all of you who reblog, comment, and send me asks about my work. Seriously, it makes SUCH a difference when you guys give feedback. And if you do it once or all the time, just know--I love it and I love you.
Truth be told (and I’ve gotten side eyes and more for saying this), it really bums me out when I write something and only get likes. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate that, but as a writer, I need feedback. Even if it’s a keysmash or an emoji, any feedback means so much to me. And someone (an anon) once complained that I go “on and on” about feedback and comments, but y’know, those mean a lot to me. Maybe not every author is as sensitive about those things as I am, but eh. That’s how I am. I legit get sad when I don’t get reviews because, to me, that means I failed or no one cares about my writing. And that’s a shitty feeling. It makes me not want to write, and if you’ve been following me for a while, you know that I get like that, so this isn’t new to you.
So anyway--I want to thank you guys for the support and comments and reblogs and likes and tags, no matter how long or detailed or vague they are. I love them, and I love all of you, and I can’t thank you enough.
Off to Disneyworld in 13 days!!! I’ve only ever been to Disneyland and I’m so excited to experience WDW! If anyone has certain places (or treats) they love to eat there, let me know, the only place I’m going for certain is Coral Reef and I’m there for 4 days!
I went to the twenty one pilots concert in my hometown (Fresno) last night, and I have to say, it was definitely an unforgettable experience. I had the best time (even tho I had to leave a teeny but early) |-/
