Dynafire - Tumblr Posts
Dynamite is the youngest of the group having skipped some grades, and he is impulsive, optimistic to a fault, and so direct that he comes across as tactless, but . . .
Fire(fly) avoids discomfort and conflict.
Except when it comes to Dy.
Fire's mother is a lot, so instead of confronting her, he schemes his way into getting what he wants with the help and encouragement of his father.
He pined after Jane from a distance until Dy got her number for him.
Jane broke up with him, and he smiled and said "sure."
He's questioning his sexuality, so Metha takes him to the red-light district.
Fire doesn't move outside of his comfort zone unless someone else is there to push him, yet each and every time he encounters Dy, he immediately yells and argues because Fire is fine with pretending to be happy and skirting around the truth to appease everyone else except with Dy. His life is already planned out, so to have Dy be so direct, so impulsive, and so aware of who he is (gay) is upsetting, and unlike everyone else Fire interacts with, he must let Dy know how he feels.
Ironically, unlike Fire, Dy doesn't scheme to get what he wants. He isn't stalking Fire. He isn't strategically planning to break up Jane and Fire. He simply stumbles upon Fire and impulsively acts on his like.
But this isn't just Dy in love; this is him all the time. Like My Dear Gangster Oppa's Phai and Muffin, Samsee constantly has to tell Dy to tame his wild nature due to his unacceptable and off-putting behavior because instead of needing encouragement like Fire, he needs to be dissuaded.
While Fire lies and conforms, Dy is outspoken and disruptive.
Where Fire lacks confidence, Dy is cocky.
Fire needs Dy to force him to be honest and push him to step out of line, and Dy needs Fire to humble him and teach him how to respect boundaries.
They need each other.
It's about balance.
