How aware of Ming’s feelings do you think Tong is? Unless he’s an actual brick, he must know Ming likes him. Does he indulge him for the attention?
I think a lot of people give too much weight to people knowing that someone who is hiding it likes them.
I don't think Tong knows. And even if he has the suspicion, I don't think he's sure of it. And he might not want to be sure of it. He might just want to believe Ming is his friend and that they can just be friends.
Just because we know we're watching a queer show and know that Ming has a crush on Tong doesn't mean Tong knows and the assumption that he knows and it using that for attention goes against a lot of what we saw of them in this episode which included Tong try to indulge and treat Ming in his excitement about his return.
I see no reason to assume that Tong knows and is using Ming when he's famous enough to have fans and already has a girlfriend. I think he's just friends with Ming and missed him and was happy to see him come back from abroad.
I dunno, I might be wrong, @respectthepetty might be better for this question.
But I tend to fall on the side of 'most people don't know that their friends have crushes on them randomly because it's just not on most people's radar.

Instead of letting a small amount of perfectly valid criticism spiral out of proportion in my brain, I've decided to Jack Sparrow it.

HEY- you know that part of the Finale of Hazbin where Vox kicks open a door?
So, I thought that animation looked familiar…
TELL ME THAT WASN’T INTENTIONAL
(It’s probably just a fun Easter egg/homage and I’m probably late to the party but the inside of my brain is screaming)

he says i hate everyone except you and that is addictive and that is kind of romantic and beautiful because you're young and you're kind of a sarcastic asshole too and you don't like bad boys, per say, but you don't really like good ones either. and you like that you were the exception, it felt like winning.
except life is not a romance book, and he was kind of being honest. he doesn't learn to be nice to your friends. he only tolerates your family. you have to beg him to come with you to birthday parties, he complains the whole time. you want to go on a date but - people are often there, wherever you're going. he's just so angry. about everything, is the thing. in the romance book, doesn't he eventually soften? can't you teach him, through your own sense of whimsy and comfort?
at first - you know introverts often need smaller friend groups, and honestly, you're fine staying at home too. you like the small, tidy life you occupy. you're not going to punish him for his personality type.
except: he really does hate everyone but you. which means he doesn't get along with his therapist. which means he has no one to talk to except for you. which means you take care of him constantly, since he otherwise has no one. which means you sometimes have to apologize for him. which means he keeps you home from seeing your friends because he hates them. you're the single exception.
about a decade from this experience, you'll type into google: how to know if a relationship is codependent.
he wraps an arm around you. i hate everyone except you. these days, you're learning what he's actually confessing is i have very little practice being kind.

youve heard of sex flowers get ready for the flower that makes you into a celestial shoujo herione complete with particle effects you cannot turn the fuck off and creates a wifebeam so powerful it can incapacitate and maim and keeps making you burst into tears and fall on your ass which makes the wifebeam More Powerful and you also cannot turn this off either.
and is also still, sort of, a sex flower
from one of my favorite fanfictions, Celestial Afterglow by elanor_pam, a fic that defies description in the best possible way

utterly random late night panic thoughts but
if you read my zelda comic and like it i love and appreciate you but i really do need to be upfront about it being very much a self indulgent enemies to lovers story with a villain at the center that has done bad but isnt bad at his core and is struggeling to come to terms with the fact that he doesnt actually want to be the evil beast he and almost everyone else believes he should be
yes im one of those people ... fake villain fans or something ... i think .. i dont know the rules to that ... q-q

tags on that recent dunmeshi poll post are making me so sad
humans are often some of my favorite fantasy races, they're not boring! They're often the race of ambition--what they might lack in particular magical prowess, or claws, or muscles, they make up for in raw numbers, and a competitive drive to keep up with the other races and assert their own place in the world. They're the jack of all trades who ever strive to pick up a little bit of what everyone else can do. They aren't boring, and neither are you: to be human is to persevere and endure, and that is wonderful

i tire of posts complaining about the quality of other people's writing. a) this discourages new writers from sharing their work. b) fanfiction is free. c) you're killing the vibe and the whimsy. d) go do it yourself if everyone sucks so bad. bitchass
