15 Day BL challenge day 3 let’s do it!!!

OG here 🩵

Say 3 - Side dish that should’ve been the main course

AiNi - Tonhon Chonlatee

I gotta be honest my loves I thought Tonhon Chonlatee was a mess and a half (Chon baby you deserve so much better!!!) but my one ray of light was Ai and Ni. They were so wholesome. Just give me a compilation of their scenes and we can forget everything else. Soz Pod and Khaotung. Mike and Toptap kinda stole the show.

💥🙌👏

"They're going to bury you three feet deep, because you've only ever been half a man" sounds like a raw ass line from Shakespeare or something buts actually from me yelling at my cat for stealing my sandwich while I was getting a drink.

Cannot be normal about each other ever in their 4MPs

Day 4 - Fave Ship Dynamic

Oh there’s so many ship dynamics that I love. Enemies to lovers? Inject it right into my veins. Sunshine x sunshine protector? Give me a million please and thank you. Dumbass + dumbass interpreter? Give me all the airheads and their smitten boyfriends.

But I really love the Black Cat x Golden Retriever dynamic. I feel like BC x GR is an offshoot of Sunshine x Sunshine Protector but slightly reversed, with the sunshiney golden retriever character bringing the hesitant black cat out of their shell, gradually prying their heart open. Often the black cat will be wounded and the golden retriever character helps them find healing. The black cat character finds a safe space in their golden retriever and they allow themselves to be vulnerable and open to their own emotions.

I feel like this dynamic exists on a spectrum. Like PrapaiSky (Love In The Air) is a very clear example of BC x GR, but it can be softer, similar to how Semantic Error and History 3: Trapped are both examples of enemies to lovers but Jaeyoung and Sangwoo didn’t have guns.

Examples -

Prapai x Sky (Love In The Air)

Huaien x Xiaobao (Meet You At The Blossom)

If you look very carefully you can spot another black cat and golden retriever duo in the background.

Pat x Pran (Bad Buddy)

Man x Type (2gether & Still 2gether)

In this house we believe in MikeToptap supremacy.

Tang Yi x Shao Fei (History 3: Trapped)

Jaeyoung x Sangwoo (Semantic Error)

Side note: I did hesitate to use this term because of the way it’s been tiktokified. BC x GR is the perfect way to describe a certain type of fictional relationship dynamic but when it became a trend on TikTok it did the thing that TikTok trends do and went overboard and the original meaning was lost amidst a sea of “omg me and my boyfriend are sooooo black cat golden retriever coded!!!” (Babes I’m so sorry but if you have to call yourself a black cat then you’re not one).
