Type: I need you
Man: For?
Type: -ever
Man: *choking up* oh-
I will haunt you every day. I will stick with you no matter what. I can follow you for the rest of my life. Did you ask me if I want to be followed?
Type, parking the car: can you get a table for us?
Man: sure
- a few minutes later -
Man, running out of the restaurant carrying a table: START THE CAR
GMMTV better give us a 2hr episode next week. They can’t possibly wrap all this shit up in 48mins????
I JUST DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY DO THEY HAVE TO DO THIS. Are they going the Theory of Love route? Because fuck the only thing that saved TOL’s last episode is the OffGun sweet kisses, otherwise all things were rush. I mean, they used 10 episodes to establish Sarawat and Tine’s relationship. How can they expect to fit in a breakup AND reconciliation in 1 episode???? Not to mention, they still have to resolve ManType’s conflict.
GMMTV YOU BETTER DELIVER.
EP 12 ramblings
I’m honestly really disappointed in this episode. I love 2gether but the last three episodes were really weird for me. Episode 10 and 11 seemed like fillers while Episode 12 is one hell of a ride.
EP 12 completely destroyed Wat’s character. Don’t get me wrong, I love the part where Wat tried to appease Tine’s insecurities but my god, not even a minute after Tine poured his heart out and told Wat how he fucking cried all night because of all the negative thoughts gnawing at his head, we have Wat defensively snatching a paper from Tine???? How realistic is that??? Did the writers honestly think we’ll eat that shit up?
Wat was really something else in this episode. In the part where he was introducting Pam to his band, his fucking bandmates knew that Tine was jealous! How can he miss that!!? And for the love of god, why did he not introduce Tine at all to Pam????????? HE FUCKING WANTED TO NAME HIS IG LOVETINE THEN SUDDENLY YOU’re TELLING ME HE’s ALL SHY AND EMBARRASSED WITH HIS HIGHSCHOOOL FRIEND??????????
And the last part oh my gOD. HOw can they not have Wat chase after Tine?????? Wtf was that??????????
AND HOW CAN WAT SLEEP WHILE TINE CRIED BESIDE HIM????? WHY DIDNT HE ASK TINE WHAT WAS WRONG? WHY ARE YOU NOT ASLEEP? WHY ARE YOU LISTENING TO MUSIC AT THIS HOUR?? WHATS BOTHERING YOU??? ASDFGHHKKL
Then we have this old trope in BL dramas demonizing women. I loved how 2gether tried to veer away from that with Pear and Earn. But they destroyed Pam. They made her a vile relationship wrecker. The show really made her go out of her way, transfer colleges, and change her entire fucking major just to chase after Wat??? Who she knew was in a relationship??? I mean, they really made her this one dimensional bitch who had the audacity to say outloud that she wanted Wat back because he found a new friend??
[NOVEL SPOILER] In the book, Pam was a sweet girl. She supported Wat and Tine. She was in the phone when Wat tried to re-assure Tine that nothing was going on between him and Pam. The two lovesick idiots even forgot that she was still on the phone!
With all these UNNECESSARY ANGST AND DRAMA, are you telling me that they could wrap it all up in one episode??? No no no no. We spent 10 episodes building up Tine and Wat’s relaitonship - from strangers to friends to lovers. How can they breakup and reconcile in just 1 episode? That would be unrealistic as hell.
We still have ManType to worry about. Are we not getting any character development from Type?? Who was the person in the polaroid photo he was holding while crying? Why was he attending so many personal growth/healing seminars??? Just because Man stopped chasing after him, he’ll do a 180???? I expected more from his character to be honest. From the way the show built him, he came off as someone coming out from a bad relationship with a lot of trust issues (like Tine).
I really have high hopes for 2gether. I thought it would at least be progressive in how it handles these problematic tropes in BL dramas.
Long distance relationship is tough. It requires trust. It requires patience. And I want you to be patient. I will be too.
