[Image ID: a colored doodle of a person with short, dark curly hair, pale skin, bright blue eyes, freckles, and stubble. She is wearing a white and blue dress with one sleeve noticeably longer than the other sleeve.]
Name: Clare/Clarence (depending on the day)
Pronouns: he/she
Origin: Tales of Veoniya, a fantasy book series I've been rotating since I was pretty young!! Old, old oc aldkjf
Clare is a genderfluid boat boy with an uncanny knowledge of the world around her. His eyes are piercing and always seem to look through you. It's a little disconcerting. She's shaped like a friend and is always happy to lend a helping hand, but he struggles to relate to people after years and years of pretending to know less than she actually does. The straight man of the group, despite not being straight and not always being a man!
No, seriously, San drags Tharn into a kiss which Type DEFINITELY sees and then Type punches Tharn because... he exists?
And then Tharn protects San. Because they're all idiots. Why not just let Type punch him? Like... he deserved it. Seriously.
Now we get... y'all, I am not ready for whatever comes next.
Really, San, you're going to kiss Tharn to try to get his in the closet boyfriend to come out because you're trying to protect him? I... really? Also, Tharn granted Type one boundary and I'm grateful for that but more might be nice.
Okay, San, this is utterly unneeded and a bit creepy.
But he's not wrong about everything. Going out with someone in the closet is typically not the best idea when you're used to being out.
Type is actively dating a man, has moved in with him, and in so jealous he wants Tharn to give up his friends while Type continues to be actively homophobic every where outside their relationship... but he'll totally work on accepting that he's dating a guy.
I don't mind the jealousy as much, I just need to roll my eyes at how they set it up. Type didn't needed that to be jealous! He's been jealous this entire time whenever anyone so much as looks at Tharn.
Cute Moment 8: Type publicly claiming Tharn in the bar.
Why the fuck would you imply that they could go fuck in the bathroom!?!?
Of course we had to get Tharn being jealous. This would work a lot better if it hadn't happened right after Type publicly claimed him as his boyfriend, y'know. MAME does everything out of order, y'all.
"I'm not turning you down." he says next to his boyfriend. I mean, for all I don't like Tharn, at least he clearly turned San down. Oy vey.
Mmm, yes, that's a healthy and enjoyable dynamic to have in a relationship. Mutual distrust!
Tharn, he said no. BACK THE FUCK OFF. Type looks so bothered and scared and I hate this. Poor Type. Punch him! You've done it so many times! Also, fuck off Tharn, 'you made me upset' isn't the excuse you think it is.
Tharn is gay, Type. He isn't going to cheat on you with a girl. But also... ah, so this is where episode 11 is going, right?
Thanks for kneeing him, Type! I appreciate that. Looks good on you.
Why would Tharn bring Type to his house without talking to him first? Seriously. Communication, it's a thing. Also, most delayed greeting of all time. A+
And, obviously, everyone comes home because Tharn, you know, didn't do any actual communicating with anyone and now Type is stuck. Worst. The WORST. Poor terrified Type.
"Have you had any issues living together?" sghjdfklghsjksdmahahahahahahaa
And Type has every right to be angry! This is why we communicate, fuckers. Use our words before we get to this point.
This scene could be cute if it weren't in this show. Because they cause each other more stress and worry than anything or anyone else, so saying 'if you're stressed, I'll be more stressed' is like the exact problem.
The part where Type threatens no sex and that's the only thing that gets Tharn to stop just makes me roll my eyes at this point.
Techno's true shock at Type being remotely nice to someone for the sake of Tharn is interesting if you assume that he was acting towards Puifai the entire time since it's apparent that he doesn't fake that and only acts that way when he's interested in someone.
Honest statement? I love Lhong so far. He's like realistic sassy and just trying to live his best life while being best friends with someone who's got so much drama.
Cute Moment 9: Type watching Tharn perform and smiling as he mouths the lyrics at him.
Who the hell goes to bed still in a button down shirt?
lol the blanket
Techno would be funnier if he didn't come with so many sound effects.
Goddamn, Tar deserved so much better than what he got across so many shows.
No show, in the history of the universe, has needed to let us hear people drinking. Seriously. NO SHOW. EVER.
I mean, Lhong's reaction in this kind of makes sense. Type's been a confirmed homophobe for a long time and Tharn's been his best friend forever so this is a bit... sudden and startling. I just like the boy, okay? Right now. Currently. At this moment. I like him.
Did I mention Tar deserved so much better than he got? Because he absolutely did.
/slow pans over to the phone with an unknown number/ I can hear the dun dun dun dun in my head
Episode 10
Oh wow. So that preview wasn't even subtle. Welp. This is gonna be an interesting episode. I can't wait to mostly feel awful for Tar for extended periods of time.
Hey, Type is smiling a bit more. That's good. Or is it fake? Hmmmm.
Oh, hey, Lhong. Still like his character, probably not gonna like his actions I suppose. But whatever. He was a highlight of fun in the earlier stuff.
"All of Tharn's exes were fucking assholes" and the latest one is definitely included. Tharn's a got a type, apparently.
The two month curse, lol. The best concept ever. I already see the drama starting in Type's brain. This is so dumb. On just... just everyone's parts. This is already so dumb how am I gonna survive episode 11 with this dumbass dramatic music.
Type's absolute revelation that Tharn has had sex in the past is just... I can't, y'all, I can't. Welcome to having a relationship as even semi-adults?
Oh, Tar. Darling tiny Tar who deserves the goddamn world and so much more and was horribly hurt and never told anyone and now he's so terrified and so scared and no one ever gets to help him. Seriously, so mad he never got his own good ending.
On the other hand, MAME. His happy ending would probably horrify me, since it's not TumTar at this point.
Tharn's cuddling is cute but if he ever mentioned the reason to Type, he'd never be able to handle it and just flip his lid and that makes me enjoy this so much less.
Why would you call him back, Tharn? That doesn't even make sense.
Communication? Between these two? Never!
I love Tum so much and wish he'd been given a chance to really comfort Tar at any point in all the things they've been in. And him holding him during the panic attack while he's soaking wet and still dressed? These babies. Most moving scene in the show yet.
Ah, it's good to see so much distrust in this relationship. I mean... I don't mean that at all. But seriously. Tyoe checking the phone? At least he didn't answer it.
This would be a cute moment but it's not because they're both also being idiots in their own heads and I can't get past that.
And now we get the phone stealing, of course! Can't deal with anything with communication or openness in this show. Absolutely not allowed.
Tum deserves to punch Tharn. As a treat. Just a little treat. Oh, that was good to see. I mean, I get it, Tharn wasn't directly involved in what's going on with Tar but, like, still. I'm okay with Tharn getting punched tbh. Just in general.
I am way more invested in protective Tum than I am in literally any other part of this entire story. (I am very predictable and would bet money @absolutebl already figured this out.)
The dramatic sting is just taking me for a ride. It's so funny.
Type goes so fast between all the touches and none of the touches and I don't really care.
Ah, yes, lie to your current boyfriend about going to talk to your ex and his brother. That's... that's a great way to insure open lines of communication and a sense of ease and trust between you and the person you love.
"Why did you, my ex who still loves me, imply that I will break up with my current boyfriend when you were upset and yelling at me in anger?!?!" Goddamn they're all idiots. Poor Tar.
Also, this whole plan is so stupid because basically no one is in on it so the next time Type speaks to Jeed she's gonna mention him seeing Tar and not Song and Song won't say they saw each other and the whole plan is just gonna fall apart instantly. So dumb.
Tum's glare is so, so good. Seriously. Have I mentioned how much I love TumTar? There's MY trash, y'all.
lol of course Type followed him and then just stands and stares.
Dysfunctional idiots with shitty communication skills are a GO.
I knew he could call Lhong. I knew it.
Longest face hold ever, just to that Tum could be angry and Type could decide he was cheating. A+ conceit. lol "I don't want a problem with my boyfriend."
And he's sitting in the dark just waiting for him. Of course.
See, if you hadn't set all of this up with lies... maybe none of this would have happened! Amazing what actually communicating can do for a couple. Or... not do. In this case.
Type goes for the jugular when he's hurt and scared and jealous and boy does he know how to do that. Also, he's right and he should say it. Especially with Tharn remaining silent and then apologizing? Yeah, not gonna work.
Silence isn't serving you well in this argument, Tharn. And, again, Type is right. Seriously.
"I didn't do anything." he says while also not answering any of the questions Type asks and never denying anything and also lying to him repeatedly for days. Not a good look.
Poor Type. That feeling has to be the worst, to have all your fears confirmed because someone just outright refuses to deny anything or even really answer your questions.
Oh, boy, everybody gets to cry alone. Still more invested in Tum and Tar's sadness than anyone else's.
Okay, there's a bit of sadness for Type as well. He did everything he could to give Tharn a chance to actually talk or deny things and he didn't do a single thing. He can have a little of my caring.
I do appreciate that Techno talked to Type about what he saw. Because, look, communication!
lol the dramatic sting is the best thing ever.
I am NOT going straight into 11/12. Like, nope. Y'all, I am not that into this.
Tomorrow morning will be 11/12 for the grand finale on Halloween and then I'll go get sushi as a gift to myself. Just a little treat. I've absolutely earned this.
Oh fuck there's still a 13? Eh, the sushi place doesn't open until noon. I can do this all in the morning.
