Still absolutely reeling from the last episode of The Devil's Hour. The episodes before it were amazing but then the last episode just blew my mind. I am desperately hoping that another season is made, I have so many unanswered questions and theories.
my mom’s been telling me my entire life she and my dad met at a bar which BOOOO BORING but today she just casually mentions actually she placed a fuckin ad in the newspaper saying she was ‘a single lady ready to meet the one’ and he was the first to call her and they dated over the phone for like three months before they met n she was like “i was already pretty much in love with him because i adored his laugh on the phone” ????? What kinda 90s romcom bullshit
btw the first time they met in person apparently was because my grandpa fuckin uhhh died? and my dad called my mom inconsolable and she went over to console him and literally just kinda ?? never left???? ehakdhskdhskfjdkdh this bitch’s been telling me they very casually met at a bar can you beLEAF no wonder me and my brother were born fuckin drama queens
me: so you placed an ad? in the newspaper? telling men who were interested in fathering children a beautiful woman to call you? like a person advertising property they want to sell?
my mom, pokerfaced: yes that is exactly what i did
me: mom.
mom: it’s not that different from tinder!
me: you know i read a fanfic once where that was the exact plot of how the two characters met. except it was set in the nineteenth century!!!
mom:
mom: bet you thought it was hot
me: NOT THE POINT
apparently. when they had their very first date my dad mentioned his daughter (my sister on his side) and my mom was like :( because she really wanted children and he just patted her hand and was like “don’t worry! we’ll have children of our own.” HDLSHDSKDHDK THE AUDACITY OF THIS MAN? ON THEIR FIRST DATE??? HELLO?
me: so dad what did you think about mom’s ad in the newspaper
my dad, curt: it was cool i guess.
me:
me: did you not think it was weird at all? why did you call her specifically and not anyone else?
dad: no it was common back then. idk i liked the font she chose for the ad
my mom, from the kitchen: it was standard issue from the paper for the ads to look like that
dad: oh… guess it was fate then :)
me:
dad:
mom:
me: did you feel that? did you feel the breeze that just passed?
dad: yeah?
me: that was because mom just melted in the kitchen
mom, from the kitchen, voice clearly a little choked: NO I DID NOT
it genuinely makes me so sad that no wlw show will live up to mlm tv “standards” and i feel like most of us have accepted that? like i think ppl are so fucking biased and love mlm shows like heartstopper cause they’re “so cute” but criticize the fuck out of wlw shows like first kill because it’s “cheesy”. like obviously the effects could be better but that’s all ppl focus on instead of the actual plot. THIS SHOW IS CUTE AND GAY AND ALL WE WANT IS REPRESENTATION and it’s super frustrating that no one gives wlw shows a chance at all. i just want this gay little vampire show to get renewed but i’m literally expecting it not to be cause that’s what always fucking happens.
just an announcement: apparently, we need to stream episode 8 if we want first kill to get renewed. that is, for some reason, the lowest viewed episode and supposedly one of the reasons netflix has yet to renew the show so please please please stream episode 8. play it on mute on the tv or your laptop or ipad when you’re doing stuff, but please just stream.
So I just finished Crash Landing On You and I can’t help but think of Captain Ri’s Company Five as a family. Without further ado, let me present to you…Company Five + Se-Ri Family! First off..
1. Captain Ri Jeong Hyeok, the patriarch.
Protects everyone at all cost. Tough on the outside but very soft on the inside when it comes to the mother goose. Has good communication skills. Would spend time with his sons but would dedicate more time with his wife. His sons will understand. They’re happy to see their parents happy.
2. Yoon Se-ri, the mother goose
She’s the Boss Lady™. Of course she would be because she loves spoiling her husband and children. “Here’s my card. Now, get out there and shop!” She loves her children as much as she loves her husband.
3. Geum Eun Dong, the youngest
Do I have to explain???? He deserves all the head pats. 🥺
4. Park Gwang Beom, the second child
I was debating whether he’s the middle or the eldest child but I resorted on making him the second child who sits in the middle of everything and observes. He’s also the youngest son’s emotional support brother. Probably the single, active brain cell within the siblings. Also Lee Shin Young is so cute I wanna die.
5. Kim Ju-Meok, the eldest
He’s the brother who was an only child for a long period before Gwang Beom showed up. Oh, and he also have the active brain cell. That makes it two brain cells.
Now, you ask me where Master Sergeant Pyo is in this dynamic?
6. Pyo Chi-Su, the patriarch’s brother
He’s the grumpy, older brother of the patriarch. He sometimes babysit the brothers when mom and dad are away (aka risking their lives for each other or going out on a date in Switzerland because they boujie). He’s a cool uncle sometimes.
I now can’t recover from this series. I might need therapy to move on.
