#kinn porsche the series

[thedooristhebluecushion]

Still not over the fact that the first Asian BL I ever watched consisted of a scene where the one character sensually crawled toward another with a piece of bread in his mouth & I still thought “this is a world I’d like to be a part of”

[itsmelb]

I've come to a point that I will never get over Kinnporsche. Never.... ⤵️

The cast members are like family - almost everyone went through shit. Together. Separately. They still go through some stuff. And sometimes I will be sad, angry or similar emotions. But I will never forget them.

Everytime I hear Jeff sing WDYS, the cast sitting there in the audience and they cry, they post about it. They're proud how well Jeff's dream developed (still does) - I see the memories in my head. The pain. The love for them.

I don't cry for something like this. Normally. I often said I don't know how it came so far. But here I am in tears. Seeing them through my phone. And I love them.

I see JBC pic I scream. I see Mile and Jeff hug eo I cry. I see the cast at the concert. I am emo.

Thank u Jeff for bringing joy and them together. Always. Saturn is never far from the clouds.

😭💜🪐

VegasPete Communication + Double Meanings

Call it the asexual gaze it is, but I was a lot more interested in the double meanings of VP's conversations than any sexual tension in this episode. Let's take a break from The Horny and think about what Pete has been trying to express about abuse well before he mentioned his own father. And I want you to keep in mind that Pete knows Vegas doesn't put an ounce of trust in words, so it's not just the dialogue we're looking at here - it's every action Pete's taking.

I put an explanation of this at the end, but please go into this post thinking about Vegas's torture of Pete as a reflection of his own experiences with his father. You can read that explanation first if you want, or not at all.

Let's start with Pete's response to Vegas talking to his hedgehog.

P: "Is he crazy?" [read: I know you're talking to me]

V, to his hedgehog: "When you're free, tell him how to be a good pet." A guide for Pete - Vegas communicating that if Pete is good, he'll be treated nicely. Note that earlier Vegas actually apologized to the hedgehog for making a ruckus with Pete - so he is giving him example of a reward. Importantly: These align with the guidelines Vegas' father has set for him. Be good. Do what I say. Mess up and you'll get punished.

P: "Whom is he talking to, me or the hedgehog?" [read: Let me tell you why I think you're crazy - because I'm not a fucking hedgehog] This is also Pete expressing that he wants to have a conversation - a shift from their previous interactions.

V: "Why didn't you eat?" [read: Why didn't you do what I told you? Why did you defy me?] This is not a question that Vegas is looking to have answered. It's challenge. A fight that Vegas wants to start. (Trying not to belabor this point too much, but again, think back to Vegas's dad's "What are you doing?" "Do you know what you're doing?" "What did I tell you?" and especially his "How dare you disobey my order?")

P: "I'm not eating." This is a fun one, because it's meant to be taken exactly at face value. Pete says this very slowly, very deliberately, and with careful eye-contact. Look:

Remember what I said about Pete communicating through actions in addition to words. Every bit of him is shouting "Listen to me! I need you to understand what I'm saying!" But he's conveying complete calmness - and control over his own actions, without threatening Vegas's control in any way.

V: "Do you think you can choose?" [read: You think you can choose not to follow my orders? You have no power here.]

P: "I'm not choosing. I'm just not eating." [read: I'm not fighting you. You want to hurt me and I am just here. It's not my choice and it's not my fault.] And if we think ahead, if we think about the context, he's telling Vegas: "Your father's abuse is not your fault."

Again, note the body language, the continued eye-contact. Coming from Pete! Who in almost every interaction prior to his capture has done his utmost to avoid Vegas's eyes. It's deliberate.

I love it I love it I love it because as a survivor of abuse himself, Pete is showing Vegas, with himself as an example, how to reframe his trauma. Okay, I have more to say so let's keep going.

V: "You know what an untamed pet would get?" [read: Think about the consequences - the punishment. That's your choice.] This is cool, because Vegas hasn't caught on yet I actually don't think Pete expected him to, personally, but that can be up for debate. The intriguing thing is that this dialogue shows that Vegas think Pete hasn't caught on yet, he thinks Pete hasn't understood and he's clarifying for him, but really Vegas is the one who's not understanding. I'm losing my mind this is so good.

P: "Well, I don't like it. I'm not hungry." [read: I hear what you're saying and you're wrong. I'm not choosing this. I don't want it and I'm not fighting you. I'm just not hungry.] Pete's still making eye contact here. His speech starts to speed up, too. Pete has hardly flinched at torture prior to this so I'm not inclined to think that it's fear doing that - I think it's more of this deliberate communication. He's reinforcing his words with his actions. Maybe he's a bit scared, but I'm convinced he's at the very least exaggerating. He needs Vegas to understand that he's being honest - he doesn't want this (and no matter what Vegas's dad has told him about choosing to fail and get punished, Vegas didn't that either). Check Pete's facial expression here, too. We know this man can fake a smile:

V: "I'm gonna hurt you so you'll remember." [I'll train you, the way I've been taught, to do what I want you to do.] But notice the phrasing here. Assuming the translation's good, Vegas's thought process is already changing. He's given up on the idea of Pete learning - which makes sense, because his father's punishments didn't teach Vegas anything other than fear. What he got out of them were memories.

And we're nearing the end here, so bear with me. The last line of dialogue is coming up, but first, the punishment itself:

Pete starts yelling immediately. Thrashing around. He looks angry. Maybe he's worn down and tired out, just releasing some pent up frustrations, but what a contrast from his demeanor throughout the whole conversation. He's not playing with Vegas, he's not trying to fight him and he's not trying to please him. He's taken himself out of the game.

And the last bit of dialogue from this scene that I think we're all familiar with:

V: "You're no fun at all." And Vegas is feeling the effects of Pete's actions. Pete has taken the power out of it all.

This is reinforced by the next scene where Pete tries to escape and doesn't bring a single weapon with him. There are weapons on display in that room. And Vegas knew he would escape - was it a test?

Pete does not want to fight Vegas, he's proving it with his actions again. I almost wonder if Pete thought of it as a test as well, but I don't know, that might be taking it a step to far.

Okay I'm bringing us back one more time. To before all of this. To right before. To the very tiny snippet of conversation we (and Pete!!) heard of Vegas' phone call with his dad.

V: "What am I supposed to do, Papa?"

And that's at the fucking root of it all, isn't it? What is Vegas supposed to do, when he's given his best and his dad hates him anyway. It's heartbreaking. It's also immediately followed by Pete staring at Vegas:

Because that little phone conversation was a key. To us, the audience, to interpret this scene - but also, I'd venture very hesitantly, for Pete. This immediately precedes all the careful conversation that he had with Vegas and because of the timing of it all, and the way Pete kinda froze and stared. It was calculated. Very quickly calculated and enacted. Maybe Pete was just using it as a way to get out - maybe he saw that Vegas had a problem and decided to offer him a solution for his own sake only. I wouldn't blame him. But it could also be that Pete realized Vegas is about ready for a change. Readiness for change is huge - it's everything. You cannot change a person if they do not want to change themselves. But here's Vegas, having already defied his father by taking Pete, now acknowledging and vocalizing that what his father is saying doesn't make sense. He's ready to change.

I fucking love this show. I'm bad at making friends y'all but if anyone wants to chat KP, please don't hesitate. Clearly I have too much to say. My asks and messages are open, always :)

------------------------------------------------------------------

I think of Vegas's torture of Pete as a reflection of his own experiences with his father. Vegas held a lot of envy towards Pete. Right off the bat Vegas knew Kinn would check on Pete, and he knew Kinn would do it thoroughly (re: telling Grandma to lie to Kinn about Pete's whereabouts). This is Kinn, Vegas's family, who has shunned Vegas* all his life, going all out for a bodyguard. And on top of that, Vegas knows that Pete has made mistakes. A sore spot, for someone who gets punished whenever he "ruins" his dad's plans. Vegas looks at Pete and sees the main family's Good Good Boy who has a tattoo about the virtue of honesty, who does nothing but smile and mess up, who seems naive as anything... but who laughs in his face when tortured.

How does this tie in to Vegas's abuse at the hands of his father? It puts the power in Vegas's hands. Not because he's inherently bad and wants to abuse people, but because he's spent his life feeling powerless, especially in comparison to Kinn. If he went into this thinking that Pete was a naive little toy - and Kinn's toy at that - Vegas wanted to break Pete the way he'd been broken by his father. We'll see more evidence of this when we get into it as well.

*I just had this additional thought that it's not uncommon for victims of child abuse - or any abuse - to feel angry that they weren't helped by those around them. I know there's competition between Kinn and Vegas inherently, but I do wonder if Vegas's rage runs deeper due to way he's been isolated. Abusers tend to isolate their victims intentionally, and I wouldn't blame Kinn for this as an outsider, but I actually think it's unlikely that Vegas wouldn't have felt that to a certain extent.

About this Build Poi situation

This entire situation took an extremely tragic turn. And everyone who harped about morals and justice are making memes . I don't have a high sense of morality but I honestly don't think that this is something to rejoice about. Now so many things have come to light after this whole situation. So many lives are being ruined. Poi, Build , the kids who posted slanderous comments, all their lives have been ruined. Now that Poi is the defendant in the case most people who wanted to destroy Build don't care anymore. Because now that Build has left BOC , there's 'no point in fighting for justice.' The sheer irony of this all.

Now people are coming forward and apologizing to Build for spreading fake allegations. And all who have publicly apologized until now are underage. There's even a 12 year old apologizing. These are children. But now they have obtained criminal records even before they became 18. And they are being dragged all around social media for what they have done.

Poi's plaigarism allegations against Build have been debunked and now ,it seems as if she hasn't even filed a lawsuit against him. Now she has become the Defendant of this case. The charges against her are criminal charges and if undisputed she will definitely get a criminal record. This has even gone to the Thai national media and now her reputation is also in ruins. People are making fun of her contradictory tweets and openly mocking her.

People are making fun of all these people involved. Some hate Build for his tweets,other hate Poi and those convicted children for their actions and now all of them are being dragged to hell and back.

Even though I sided with Build and disliked Poi no one truly won here.

Apo's own fans turned against him and flung racist, homophobic comments at him all because of a filter.

Regardless of what we feel about them, these are all real people who are involved.To make fun of their lives ,to joke at their expense isn't a morally superior thing to do.

What's the point in talking about 'justice', 'morals' and 'victims' if we dump the case the moment the tide turns?

I honestly had concrete beliefs too. I didn't even knowthat there was something called 'imperfect victims' until this case happened. I didn't realize that we have to give a voice to the victim ,(no matter how imperfect they are) first. That was my mistake.

Everyone who made documentations and discussions about it has abandoned it . People mocked Build for crying and now they are mocking Poi for what's happening to her. It's very clear that Poi needs medical intervention.

If Poi can be considered an imperfect victim so Build. If Build is innocent until proven guilty so is Poi.

This entire thing has become a nightmare .With more and more lives being ruined. The court of Public opinion is an extremely ruthless place and we all are a part of it.

What all these people have done might be inexcusable in someone's book but this situation should have been approached in a more humane way.

The court of Law forgives but The court of public opinion never does .The same people who stand by you will abandon you in a second.

There's one thing common in all these people involved ,they have all become social outcasts. We have pushed them out of society with no remorse.Because all of us ,from both sides decided to hate each other and drag all these people to hell.

Most of us just needed a scapegoat to hate .Now that Build seems to be the victim, Build has been replaced by Poi and the other people involved .

We all tried to force all these people to be picture perfect and when they don't fulfill it we get angry.

Build,Poi and everyone involved will have to live with this until they die. There's no escape for them.

At the end of the day everyone including me were complicit in spreading hatred and anger and dividing ourselves and expelling all these people.

I should have looked at this case in a humane manner ,but I failed to do so. We can find their actions inexcusable but they are inevitably paying for everything that they have done.

Degrading ,mocking ,rejoicing about their downfall is not the way to go in my opinion.But then again how can I talk about morality when I myself am not a good person?

This actually showed me that people truly don't care about things like justice and the victim .They will care only care if it affects them. That's the reality and human nature. They will discard the person the moment the victim becomes the defendant.

I am no better either.

The truth is a bitter pill to swallow,but I can accept it when I am wrong.

Poi,Build and the other 3 kids are a product of their society. Their experiences would have shaped them to take all those decisions that they took. They are all imperfect. They are all human.We don't care about the real issue here.

But people can't be imperfect right?

Everyone has to be perfect right?It's easy to mock them right?

It's easy to ignore these problems right?

Build's tears are crocodile tears because he's a devil and not human enough to cry, am I right?

Poi shouldn't be sympathized with because she is crazy and delusional right ?

Those children and their parents should be shamed and mocked because they committed crimes right ?

It's easy ignore their struggles and not care because they no longer matter to us right?

We only need them as scapegoats just to hate them right ?

It's fun to see them dragged to hell right?

Degrading them, Dehumanizing them , sensationalizing this whole situation,dropping them when we can no longer seem to care , Ignoring how they feel because they are wrong feels good right ?

Let's not give them a voice because they are monsters right?

Their feelings don't matter anymore because we hate them right ?

How we failed them all. It took me a long while to accept this all but this is the bitter reality .And I was complicit in it as well. So I am no better .

Initially this was made under a meme about Build's resignation but now I made my own post about it. People shouldn't make memes out of the destruction of a person's life no matter how much you hate them.

Long-haired dudes are my weakness

[thefreeblog]

The deep urge I have to gently swipe the hair out of the face of each and every gay guy from a Thai college or a Japanese school is absolutely killing me.

No don't fix it Sky, swipe it away.

I struggled with Kings hair so much, that boy has some beautiful silky hair but what's up with that haircut?

Some times Taiwan too

[crapyouknowme]

I’ll just word vomit because I don’t know if I will ever get to really let that scene saturate into the very fiber of my flesh.

I have never seen such intimacy conveyed with such haunting brokenness. I could literally FEEL their desperation, their pleading , their WANT to be seen and to be able to trust. I am devastated for Kinn, who wants to be able to love and be in love. I am absolutely ruined by how much Porsche wants just the same. There’s so much to unravel, extricate and then liberate.

Cousin Rivalry Parallel

Is it just me or is this how Vegas was groomed to hate and compete with Kinn?

Maybe Vegas was exactly like Chopper, like he wanted to prove himself by other means. But their toxic dads kept threatening them and trauma dumping on them that it finally affected them too. Look how this cute and soft-hearted Chopper is indirectly forced to a) watch a client gets his finger cut off and b) participate in the possible murder of his aunt and cousin. 

We’re watching a possible Vegas in the making and you can’t convince me otherwise.

Take care !

[lgbtally4ever]

So, it turns out, prior to any court trial, that Poi has some psychological problems and it’s a miracle if she hasn’t caused Build to go a little crazy, with this whole mess she’s caused, and all the strife she’s given him!

He should still take her to court and/or sue her for all the damage to his career, the loss of earnings, the psychological damage. (Not to mention the damage she may have caused the #MeToo movement)!

I feel really bad for Build.
