I was really hoping you'd do one of your color posts for Love in Translation, so thank you! I was curious if you had any comparison and contrast with the way the Atime26 team is doing the green-blue boy dynamic compared to some of the Korean teams (such as Studio Winsome with Our Dating Sim)?

Benito, bestie, buddie, great question!

To generalize - Usually, the Green Guy is the pursuer in Korean dramas.

And Japan has shown that the Green Guy is the one who has the feelings first.

So it's very interesting that Thailand has framed the Blue Boy as already knowing his feelings while the Green Guy has to catch up, and the Blue Boy is being very Blue Boy about it (quiet, reserved, serious).

BUT, and this is a big BUT (Sir Mix-a-Lot "I like big butts" style), Thailand is doing something funky with the colors, and I like it.

Phumjai likes Tammy. Tammy's favorite color is blue; therefore, Phumjai, a Green Guy, wears blue, a lot.

Yan Feng likes Phumjai. Phumjai's favorite color is green; therefore, Yan Feng, a Blue Boy, wears green, a lot.

But the thing is, they both wore these colors before knowing what their love interest's favorite color was, so why would I believe Phumjai, who wears blue often, is the Green Guy, and Yan Feng, who wears green regularly, is the Blue Boy? Well, TAMMY!

Tammy didn't wear green until she realized she liked Phumjai. She is a Blue Beauty, so her wearing green shows that she likes a Green Guy = Phumjai.

Also, when they were trying to figure out names for the store, Thai (Phumjai) was green, and Chinese (Yan Feng) was blue.

So unlike Japan and Korea who clearly code the characters as their respective colors and keep them that way until the exchange, Thailand's Atime26 seems to be implying that this relationship was destined to be which is why they are already wearing the other's color >insert Weaver Girl & Cowheader<

This year has been the year of this damn Weaver Girl x Cowheader: Never Let Me Go, Chains of Heart, and now this. All these shows include Chinese culture within them, but the first two dealt with fated lovers, so why wouldn't Love in Translation? Palm and Nueng went back in time to realize they were always meant to be. Not even death (which was faked) could separate Ken and Din. And now we have these two who even before they really got to know each other, they liked each other:

Outside of the dressing room, Phumjai threw his green shorts over the dressing room barrier at Yan Feng.

Yan Feng threw them back over

And Phumjai, who was trying on a blue shirt, said "thank you"

Which sparked a delightful conversation that made each one more confident and happy, but also, sealed their fate.

Because without knowing it,

They were telling the other that the perfect person they were looking for was them.

They were meant to find each other. They said it themselves.

The product placement colors reinforce that.

ALL OF THEM!

Oh no. In addition to Furiosa calling him "my Jack", apparently he weakly replies "my Fury". Which beyond this being THEE dying declaration of love since it looks like there is no exit and they are at that point choosing to only see each other and ignoring their soon to be killers, leaning into each other and breathing each other's air....... my Fury.

Not just a nickname for Furiosa but. What she will be. She does become a Fury in the Erinyes sense who avenges his death and everything taken from her upon Dementus with Greek Myth levels of retribution, and it is Fury that drives her, a righteous grief that powers her to try to give the Wives a better fate.

adding to the "there should have been more genuine tension within the seven" train of thought, it would have been funny if the Argo II, technically being a ship, meant it fell under Percy's power domain and he could control it all at whim, rendering all the carefully crafted controls Leo built useless if Percy felt like being an asshole

im not a fan of modern merthur but the idea of them meeting in modern times and introducing themselves to each other and them laughing and bonding over their names being connected to the myth of king arthur and camelot is just so cute

when u point out Dany having the power of god x3 to destroy any city she doesn't like might be a bad thing and probably won't be rewarded by the narrative

targies: noooo it will be fine because Dany would NEVER do that she's just too fundamentally GOOD to ever be corrupted by unlimited power 🙃 source: trust me bro

apparently the theme of asoiaf is absolute power is good, actually, we just need to make sure the *right* people have it 😇
