I'm not crying. I'M not crying. I'M not CRYING! I'M NOT CRYING!! I AM VERY MUCH CRYING!!!I AM SO FUCKING MUCH CRYING Y'ALL!!!!

WAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!

[storiesandstars]

Sun Jae, you adorable idiot - don't do that to your lovely dad!!! That was so funny 😂😂. Kim Won Hae just slays whatever comedic role he's given.

THE BLOODY CUTENESS OF THAT HUG 🥲. What am I gonna do when I don't have them anymore? This Entire Cast. What am I going to do without them all. Oh, I feel it already.

The second-hand embarrassment is too real with these two, BUT it's done so naturally and so funnily I can't cringe for long. Let's just leave the plotline with that mother trucker in the past. I just want rom com the rest of the way. Of course, kdrama logic means I'll be bawling next episode.

Mark my words, 20 years later this family meeting will consist of Im Sol and Sun Jae with their son (who is a lover, just like his dad) and his girlfriend's family.

I love Tae Sung. He fits so well with those two. Ot3!! Im Sol just collecting beautiful men left and right.

Oh, the dog!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

"Should I make two?"

"Make it three."

OT3 SUPREMACY.

See, I knew it. They're going to make me cry next ep. What the hell is this guy's problem?!??!

so the easiest thing to do for usopp's story is to let the lesson of the boy who cried wolf take over and blame his lying nature for nobody believing him, but he pretty clearly always made it known when the lie was over in the past.

His line that he'd make sure he was lying by taking care of the pirates before they threatened the village is what's really indicative of his character, and it reminds me of why i like him.

“I am bad” vs. “something bad happened to me” - Vegas and Pete (tw for child abuse & talking about trauma)

In a trauma informed approach to mental health people often talk about the difference between “I am bad” and “something bad happened to me”. When we experience trauma or Trauma, we often internalize the message “I am bad”. I think the easiest to understand example of this is with child abuse. Children who are abused often believe that their parents are hurting them because they are “bad” in some way. That’s the only way a child can understand being hurt by someone they (naturally and correctly) look to for care, protection and love. And children can carry that message with them into adulthood.

That’s what’s happening with Vegas. He literally says it to Pete. Vegas has no external framework for understanding his abuse. He believes he is bad because that’s what his father has told him. Obedience to his father – seeking his fathers approval – becomes rational if he, Vegas, is the source of the “problem”. That’s the trap Vegas is in and it’s an unsolvable catch-22 because he will never be able to “fix” himself and live up to his fathers expectations (as Pete points out, those expectations are a moving target and have nothing to do with Vegas himself). This also explains how blithe Vegas was about Porsche telling him he sucked. Vegas was like, “yeah, of course I suck”, because he literally believes it and not just in the context of his (very) bad behavior.

Pete has also experienced child abuse but he understands that he wasn’t “bad” or “wrong” as a child, instead “something bad happened” to him (although he may not always believe it, because belief and understanding are two different things).

The difference is crucial and probably also related to the difference between “I am bad” and “I did a bad thing” - for which Vegas clearly also has no real distinction.

Outing...

Finally I can waych ep. 11 so I can finally shout that this is an outing not that f thing Payu did. You sould all learn the meaning of some therms before writing something. Outings done in an hostile enviroment (that f school or everywhere else) it’s dangerous, doesn’t matter if you ‘respect their love’. How someone had the courage to compare these 2 scenes and call them ‘outing’ I’ll never know.
