Gods, I love the apothecary diaries.. I love the way it handles fanservice - or rather the lack of it. The nudity never feels exploitative, only, introspective, almost diving into vulnerability.

finished the last ep of ars paradoxica and the music is making me emo :(

i think what’s complicated about autism (especially for someone like gang-tae who is dealing with it from the outside) is that ... while people who have it may seem closed off from the world and antisocial and awkward they actually often deeply crave connection and companionship but don’t understand the appropriate ways to go about getting it or asking for it. sang-tae’s outburst was based off of a lifetime of gang-tae building their lives around each other and establishing total co-dependence between them both - which wasn’t really what sang-tae needed but it probably did make sang-tae feel safe and loved without having to find a way to ask for it. and now that gang-tae is trying to establish a separate life it makes sense that sang-tae would have a meltdown because gang-tae never really cultivated a way of life for sang-tae that was separate from him or independent in any way. sang-tae is high functioning enough that with good behavioral treatment and adaptive skills development he could probably live relatively independently but gang-tae was so traumatized by his youth that he felt responsible for sang-tae and took over completely, blending their lives together with no exit plan for either of them. i’m not blaming either of them - they’ve both been doing their best, and i’m grateful for how gently this has been depicted and highlighting how crucial gang-tae’s patience is here was a beautiful moment.
