#who can define popularity manhwa

[impromptu-sketches]

[chuunamu]

saw this tweet and immediately thought of them:

title: love on hold (mallinflower)

set in a college, the mc and ml have known each other since high school. and even though the ml is known as the popular, nice guy who’s friends with everyone, the mc has never been able to have an amicable relationship with him… that is until……..

read it to find out ofc — trying not spoil it LOL but it’s kinda funny

title: between the lines (hodot)

so the mc, he’s a bl writer, and he comes across the ml (popular nice guy) who turns out to be perfect reference material for his bl stories.. and he gets a little obsessive about him.

i’m absolutely obsessed with this story… also it’s uncensored…… 🫠

this one’s is a little different but in the same vein:

title: who can define popularity (tak bon)

really loved this manhwa. so the mc (the popular nice guy in this) worked hard on levelling himself up and basically thought he was the hottest shit on campus: until he met the ml who (literally) outshined him in every regard.

this story is so feel good!!! and seriously funny.

si won: *quietly seething with loathsome rage*

da un: oh my god, he's in love with me

Review of: Who Can Define Popularity? by 탁본

I did my best to make this review as spoiler-free as possible, even though the story's strongest points are unrelated to its predictability.

I did not expect much from "Who Can Define Popularity". Initially, I thought the story concept seemed a bit cheesy. Overweight guy transforms himself and his life, and a chance encounter makes a handsome guy obsessed with him! And then what? They play a game of push and pull until they finally get together, then the main character's dark past gets exposed and their relationship goes into jeopardy! Oh no! Yeah... no. I hope this doesn't count as a spoiler, but that is not what happens at all.

The male leads are incredibly narcissistic. They're both really beautiful and aware of it which is okay, but for the first duration where the author was still introducing characters... they were so full of themselves it was comedic. I thought that the rest of the story would be very shallow, since the character felt about as deep as a pancake. Flat. I ended up briefly dropping the story and rating it 3/10, until I reflected a bit on why I thought the story was so bad... then decided to give it another chance. I am very glad I decided to give this beautiful story another chance.

First of all, the characters are not very unique, but that is not a negative point. It is the character relationships which are what make the story special. As the story progresses, the relationships unfold very beautifully, with characters building each other up and growing together because of the relationships they build. Even side characters were made to learn from each other. It felt refreshing to read a story with average people (even if their looks or wealth aren't average) which had no tragedy or drama, rather it was an entertaining story about young adults growing as people. The characters get a 6/10 from me, but the character interactions are 9/10.

The art-style was very fitting for the story. It was both beautiful and cute. It was funny, heartwarming (and melting and breaking), and entertaining. It also was quite different from the usual art-style in this genre which I appreciated, but it might not suit everyone's tastes. Regardless, I give it a 10/10.

The plot was good, but I struggle to find anything about it that would make me want to recommend others to read it. The pacing of the story was really nice. At first I read 10 chapters thinking they were less (and that's when I dropped it because I thought the characters and story were too shallow to go on), and when I picked it up again, I read 60 more and finished the story before realising it. My only complaint is that I wanted to read more before the story was concluded, but the ending was satisfying, so this is not a point of criticism. The story itself gets a 7/10 from me.

I started reading this expecting a romance, but reading it felt more like reading a comedy and slice of life with some romance. The romance was a significant part of the story, and there is definitely more than enough of it for the story to be a romance, but, building the romance was not the only focus of the story. I loved that.

[allthefujoshiunite]

Hi, Nora....How are you? Just want say, thanks so much for sharing your BL recs and reviews. I found a lot of my new fav because of you. Really love reading your beautiful writting about what you're reading.

You have post your favorite seme in BL, can I ask your top 5 (or top 3) favorite uke in BL? And why you love them?

Also can I ask your favorite female characters in BL manga/manhwa?

Sorry for asking too much and I know I've already sending you an ask some time ago, I hope it's okay (if it's from the same person)....

Hope you have a nice day....

Hiiii ~ I'm good, how are you? Reading your message really warmed my heart :3 I know I'm like a broken record, but hearing people enjoy the stuff I put effort writing in makes me feel ecstatic. Take these hearts!!

Very good questions, and I had a hard time picking uke characters because I love them so much??? Interestingly, when I first started reading BL I found myself gravitating towards the seme but in recent years I like uke characters more. Tropes and trends surely change in years so it's possible that more artists started writing the type of characteristics that I love. Anyways, enough rambling and onto the recommendations!

If I had to find one characteristic that I ADORE in an uke, that would be emotional maturity. They may not be experienced romantic relationship-wise or confused/mislead depending on the situation but I love it when they are honest to themselves and their love interest/partner. Here are some recent or all-time favorites that fit this bill:

An Extremely Haphazard and Weak-willed Kiss - Koshino (desperately need that 2nd vol!!)

Tsubame's Happiness - Arima Arashi

The Farthest Love in the World - Asou Mitsuaki

His Little Amber - Natsume Kazuki

All That Pierces The Heart - Kari Sumako (I admit Akira is not that emotionally mature but my heart just felt his pain! Please give this one a read if you haven't.)

The New Recruit - Moscareto & ZEC

Honorable mentions would be Semantic Error, FANGS, Birds of Shangri-la, The Insatiable Man, Between the Stars, Like the Beast, Golden Sparkle, I'll Make You Cry.

As you can see... my brain fried up trying to limit the characters I love to a list! Not possible.

As for female characters in BL!

As you know, they aren't as prominent in BL for whatever reason, so it wasn't too hard to limit myself (sadly). I like that they increasingly become a part of the narrative, as a character themselves and not just for jealousy reasons! Here are my top 3:

The Insatiable Man: Jiho has two older sisters, and while at first one of them is not as likable as the other, both serve very important roles in the narrative and Jiho's journey, including their mother. I'll wither away if we don't get the 3rd season anytime soon.

Who Can Define Popularity?: There are two female characters in this story that I especially like, one of them is the friends with the main couple, and the other is the sister of the main character Siwon. This completed manhwa is a MUST READ because it's fun, it's emotional and full of goodness.

Love For Sale: I know I know, you're SO tired of me bringing up this series everytime I get an ask but what's a girl to do???? It's just THAT good! I actually adore the uke in this as well but I held back, so cut me some slack for mentioning it here. The main character Namwoo has an older sister, Eunjung. I like her not only because she's her own character, interesting and have lots to offer, her and her brother's relationship is extremely similar to what we have with my older brother. And because of that similarity, reading about their relationship was super emotional for me.

Honorable mention: They aren't exactly in the center but Traces of the Sun has two side characters that are a joy to see when they make a cameo.

Aaaand that's a wrap! I'm sorry I rambled for too long :'D You can send me an ask whenever you want, I don't mind. It was really fun to put together and I might rewrite it as a Top 5 post on my blog as well, so thank you for the idea! Hope you have a good day and enjoyed reading another list of mine.

Beyond Labels: Exploring BL Manhwa's World and Its Impact on Comics Representation

BL manhwa (or Boys' Love Manhwa) is a South Korean comic that focuses on romantic relationships between men. BL manhwa is not a new phenomenon. However, it has seen significant growth in popularity due to the success of Korean entertainment such as K-pop and Kdramas. This popularity surge has brought BL manhwa into a larger audience and has sparked important conversations about representation in comics, as well as the impact of these stories upon LGBTQ+ communities.

One of the reasons BL manhwa is so popular is its ability challenge stereotypes and present diverse representations LGBTQ+ characters. Traditional representations of LGBTQ+ characters have been often limited and sometimes harmful in mainstream media. BL manhwa, however, presents a new kind of representation. It goes beyond labels and shows more nuanced and real depictions of LGBTQ+ characters.

These creators are able to express themselves creatively and make important contributions to the representations of LGBTQ+ people in comics. These creators offer a variety of perspectives and experiences that are essential to the genre's success and popularity.

BL manhwa challenges gender norms. Many BL manhwa stories feature male characters who challenge gender norms and expectations. Their relationships are also not defined by heteronormative standards. They explore the complexities and relationships of love beyond gender expectations and offer a refreshing view on romance and sexuality.

BL manhwa explores themes such as acceptance, self-discovery and love. This makes it a powerful tool to promote LGBTQ+ representation and advocacy. BL manhwa presents a relatable, empathetic view of the LGBTQ+ experience by displaying the triumphs and struggles of LGBTQ+ characters. These stories will help readers gain a better understanding about the struggles faced by LGBTQ+ people and the importance acceptance and inclusion.

Although BL manhwa is credited with challenging stereotypes and promoting representation, there are some criticisms. Some criticize the focus on male romantic relationships, especially when it comes down to depicting abusive and non-consensual relationships. These criticisms must be acknowledged and BL manhwa should continue to promote respectful and healthy relationships.

BL manhwa provides a unique perspective to representation in comics. She challenges stereotypes and presents diverse and nuanced portrayals of LGBTQ+ characters. BL manhwa is an important tool to promote acceptance and inclusion by showcasing LGBTQ+ creators. It is important to address the criticisms of this genre and to ensure it continues to be respectful and supportive for LGBTQ+ communities as it grows and evolves. BL Manhwa's influence on comics representation highlights the power and importance of inclusive storytelling.

The popularity of BL Manhwa has seen it adapted into many media formats, including anime and live-action dramas. The increased visibility of the genre has also contributed to its impact on representation. LGBTQ+ characters have been introduced to a wider audience. This has sparked debates about the importance and harmful effects of negative stereotypes in media.

The success of BL Manhwa has also opened up new possibilities for LGBTQ+ creators, and allowed for the creation new works that challenge gender norms. It has provided a platform for LGBTQ+ voices and stories to be heard, providing validation and support for those who have been overlooked.

In addition, the success of BL Manhwa has brought to light the inadequacy of representation of LGBTQ+ characters, especially in Western comics. This has brought attention to the need for greater diversity and inclusion and encouraged creators and publishers to try new, more inclusive storytelling techniques.

As with all media, it's important to recognize and address any problematic elements in the genre. Despite the fact that BL manhwa has made great strides in promoting respectful and healthy relationships, there are still some instances of fetishistic and harmful portrayals of LGBTQ+ characters. Both consumers and creators need to be aware of these issues in order to create a more welcoming environment for everyone.

BL manhwa, which provides a platform for LGBTQ+ creators to be heard and seen, has had a significant impact in representation in comics. It challenged stereotypes and promoted acceptance and diverse storytelling. Although there are still many things to do, the success story of BL Manhwa has demonstrated the power and importance of diversity in media. It is crucial to address the criticisms of this genre and work towards creating a more supportive and inclusive community as it grows and evolves.

I'm watching Boys Be Brave because it's supposed to be based off Roommates, which is one of my favorite manhwas. I'm one episode in. So far it seems to be an adaptation of Roommates in the same way Bleuming was an adaptation of Who Can Define Popularity, which is to say, if you squint. That being said, Bleuming was a masterpiece. I liked it better than Unintentional Love Story and A Shoulder to Cry On, which were pretty faithful to the source material. But both of those manhwas were also better than Who Can Define Popularity, so they had their work cut out for them. Roommates is dear to me, so I don't know how I feel about this adaptation yet. These are not my dork ass losers.

[impromptu-sketches]

[chanagun]

So I watched Blueming and I have some Thoughts

1. Pretty different from the manhwa BUT I liked it. Most of it.

2. I was pissed off the entire time because I was missing my token himbo Hoon but they saved at the LAST SECOND

3. And then hello of course, a great way to lead up to a season two focusing on Bawoo and Hoon

4. Why does this guy give me such strong svt dk vibes like why do they have the same smile and eye smile and face and mannerisms?? Hello has anyone seen dokyeom lately is he moonlighting as a bl actor

And lastly

5. These boys be standing right in the middle of any street they come across please go stare longingly at each other or hug or whatever on the sidewalk PLEASE

[alovelyepiphany]

OMG YESSSS

I’M SO HAPPY ABOUT ABOUT ALL THESE MANHWAS GETTING ADAPTIONS!!

[ahxiang]

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

He worked out so hard to get fit

I'm proud of you, but you don't need to be fit just so someone can like you

GGUKIE'S JOCKS — Jeon Jeongguk

Day O3. Jeon Jeongguk x M!Reader (KINKTOBER) [ Jockstrap, edging ]

COUPLE: Jeon Jeongguk x M!Reader

GENRE: Smut, Fluff

ADDITIONAL WARNINGS: Muscle kink, scent kink, bondage, orgasm denial, impact play(?), both you and Gguk are working adults, asphyxiation, implication of sado-masochism, master-kitten kink

SUMMARY: You loved Jeongguk's jockstrap and you'd jerk off to it every single day but one day he arrived home and witnessed it, clearly not happy that you were playing with yourself when he clearly told you not to

KINKTOBER MASTERLIST

"Kitten, I'll be back in a jiffy," your husband, Jeongguk, stated as he placed a kiss on your forehead, making you smile lazily at him. The ravenette found it cute how you were still tired as hell but decided to wake up just so you could see him off. "You'll send me off to work, M/N?" You nodded with a small smile, your (H/C), fluffy hair bouncing in the process before you sat up on your bed wrapping yourself around your husband like a koala. Jeongguk just chuckled as he carried you, placing his hands on your bum to make sure you won't fall down. "Are you gonna come back late again?" You asked the other male who thought for a second. "Yeah, I think so, M/N. My boss is giving me loads of paperworks and I have to finish it on time or I'm done for," he answered as he exited your shared bedroom, opening the door with one hand then closing it with his foot soon after. "I'll try to finish them faster so I can spend more time woth you. Gosh, when was the last time we at together?" "Two weeks ago," you answered with a small giggle, kissing the top of Jeongguk's nose, the other smiling as his nose crunched in delight. "It's fine, Ggukie. I don't mind. Your job is important and you have to prioritize it or you're, I quote, 'done for'. Besides, I get to have a fresh mind as I start my new book, the prequel from my latest book." That's right. Jeongguk was a businessman at a popular and in-demand company in South Korea, whilst you were a well-known writer of many of the best-selling books from around the world. Your literaries were all written in English while some were fully written in Hangul which actually went sold out upon it's publication. How you two met was very unexpected yey clichè at the same time. You were on your way to a cafè to have a meeting with a Manhwa artist who asked if you could help in writing a story line for their new Manhwa. You helped out of course and that same artist was a friend of Jeongguk's. You met him way back when you were in your early 20s, your books were still not recognized at that time. The artist, whom now you know go by the name Hoseok, introduced you to him and you were so surprised that he was an avid fan of your books, smiling upon knowing he had bought all of your published novels. Somehow, you two clicked and decided to go out once in a while, eventually going to the dating process, and got married after years of dating. That's pretty much it. "Mhm. I heard the story's inspired about our story? I'll make sure to buy it and read the story so you better not spoil the contents or I'm gonna sulk," Jeongguk stated with a small pout, making you roll your eyes as you kissed his pout away which sent the other male in chuckling. Jeongguk slowly placed you down on the ground, making sure not to drop you by accident, and he bent his knees to kiss your lips, you kissing back with a small smile, holding Jeongguk's defined jaw before you pulled away with a huge smile. "Now, go to work, Ggukie. You will be late if you don't make haste," you stated as you tightened his tie and straightened out the few crumples on his polo. "See you later then, Gguk." "Remember my rules? Don't touch yourself until I get home, alright?" The other male stated as he smiled at you. You just rolled your eyes at him, shaking your head in the process in disbelief. "Yes, yes, I know that, Gguk. You've told me that a million times and you know I've never disobeyed you," you stated with a small smile, letting out a small puff of a chukle as you patted his head, you on your tippy toes. The older male just nodded as he flashed you his infamous bunny smile and took his brief case bag that was placed on the ground, placing one final kiss on your forehead before finally exiting the house with a wave goodbye. You giggled before you watched him enter his blue Audi that you bought for him during his 34th birthday, Jeongguk driving away after mouthing a small 'I love you' to you. With that, you smiled before closing the front door, sighing in relief once you knew Jeongguk failed to notice that you were wearing his used

jockstrap, that one underwear you always loved and never failed to turn you on. It was actually risky since he was holding onto your bum and he would've noticed but luckily for you, he didn't. Smiling cheekily, you slowly made your way to the bathroom where most of his used jockstraps were probably placed, inside the laundry basket you put in the bathroom like any other. You knelt down the clean, tiled floor and immediately grabbed two of your husband's jockstraps, one in both hands. Somehow, it's scent was so addicting that you can never grow tired of smelling it. It may seem creepy to others but to you, you consider it an 'everyday need' every time Jeongguk was not around. The older male had not one clue that you were so into his used jockstraps or just the jockstrap itself. Seeing him change into that underwear always seemed to turn you on, his butt on full display, the obvious bulge making you gulp as you imagined sucking on his dick. All in all, it was a wonderful sight to behold. You blushed hard as a memory of Jeongguk walking around the bedroom with just his jockstrap on began playing your head, over and over again like a broken vinyl. Slowly, you neared your right hand towards your nose, sniffing on it before pulling away with a satisfied sigh. As usual, the scent of his used jockstraps has made you hard. It was just one sniff and your member was already straining against the jockstrap you were wearing, Jeongguk's jockstrap that you loved. Not having enough, you placed your nose closer towards the jockstrap and began snuffling on it as if your life depended on it. Your hard member began twitching against your pants before you finally pulled your pants down, along with your jockstrap, freeing your hard dick from it's restraints. Using your free hand, you began to jerk yourself off all the while dragging Jeongguk's soiled jocknoun against it. You let out a glottal whimper as you rutted your hips on your curled fingers, loving the way the underwear grazed against the tip and base of your cock. You closed your eyes in pleasure as you proceeded to inhale the musky scent of Jeongguk's underwear, knowing for sure it'll take you awhile like usual since your husband was not around. "Hm, fuck...Ggukie," you moaned out as you sat down, back against the bath tub as you played with yourself, the smell only turning you on even more. You couldn't deny it but you knew for sure that you were needing Jeongguk's touch now, to feel his calloused hands trail along your body, on your torso, your thighs, his hands tracing along every inch of your body. You began to jerk your cock faster, as you began to sniff Jeongguk's jockstrap enddlessly. It was an addicting scent you and it was so arousing. It was the reason why you loved being alone inside the house, although sometimes you needed Jeongguk to be near you, to fuck the living daylights out of you. When did you start having this kind of addiction? You didn't know when it started but all you remembered was smelling it to check if it was laundry or not. Truth be told, that jockstrap was never washed until the next week. Hanging your head low, you began muttering curses in a small voice as you wanked your dick vigorously, like how your husband would usually do. "Shit...fuck..J-Jeongguk," you called out to him as if he was there. "Ggukie, faster," you moaned out as you began fucking yourself on your hand, squeezing them tighter with wanton moans leaving your mouth as you masturbated. You slowly wore the jockstrap on your face, chuckling lewdly at the scent before you used your hand to palm on the tip of your cock, your eyes still closed shut as you began to jerk yourself faster. Your head was thrown back as you let out small whimpers that turned into loud groans every once in a while. Your legs were already convulsing, not knowing what to do as your body began trembling, that familiar coil inside your stomach making you jack yourself faster, trying to find some kind of release. "Oh fuck, oh fuck! SHIT! OH GOD! I'm close, Ggukie!" You shouted as you began to twist your

wrist and play with the tip, one hand grabbing your heavy balls and played with it. "OH HO WOAH, FUCK MEEE~! SO CLOSE! SO--FUCK! I'M CUMMING!" You stated out loud with a loud cry, spasming on the floor as a loud guttural moan exited your lips. You were expecting to cum but was shocked when someone held onto your cock tightly, making you let out a shriek as you opened your eyes, dark brown orbs staring right into yours. You widened your eyes in shock before you slowly removed the jockstrap on your face and the one on your hand, looking straight into your husband's eyes. "Gg-Gukie? Why are you home early?" Jeongguk chuckled darkly, your eyes teary at the denial of your orgasm. "Haven't I made myself clear? No touching until I arrive home. I told you didn't I? And to think that you were actually jerking off to my jockstraps," he mocked you, making you look away in embarrassment, cheeks tinted red as you gulped, awaiting for the worst to come. "I-I'm sorry, Gguk," you apologized as you bit your lip, the other male placing his rough hand on your neck, squeezing it a bit tightly which emitted a choked whimper from you. You looked up at the male who was now smirking devilishly as his thumb's nail began digging deeper into the soft skin of your neck. The pain, how you lacked air, how rough Jeongguk was being, you didn't like it. You loved it! If Jeongguk could describe you as a cartoonized person, you'd be that one turned on bottom who loved being choked, eyes sparkling as his pupils were replaced with hearts. Well, he knew how much of a masochist you were so there was no mistaking that your cock twitched as he squeezed your neck tightly, not fully restricting your airflow. He didn't want you to die there on the spot nor does he want to kill you or be a murderer. "Gg-Gguk...hah..I'm s-sorry," you managed to utter out, eyes glossed with tears as you looked up at your husband with red-tinted cheeks. The other male just chuckled as he let go of your neck, you coughed up, wheezing as you tried to gain the air your lungs have lost. "H-Holy..shit...that felt g-good." Jeongguk just snarled before he turned you back around, kneeling down as well, caging your legs in his knees and chuckled in a raspy voice. "You seriously think I didn't know you've been jacking off by sniffing on my jocks? It was bound for me to know. You know that, right?" You couldn't help but be aroused to the way Jeongguk was talking to you. He already knew? Why did he not tell you? Was he waiting for this moment to wait? "I can't believe you thought I actually had a job when it's a weekend, fucking bitch." Suddenly, you were shocked when he fully removed your jocks and your pants. "W-Wait, Gguk. I--" "Shut up. You've disobeyed me and you already know what was waiting for you," he stated in gruff voice making you squeak as you give in to your husband willingly who turned you around, your back against the cold bath tub. "That's a good slut. Think you can handle my cock, pet?" he asked before he placed his hands on your ass, kneading your dough-like bottom which made you let out a whimper, the sound going straight to the other's cock. "Fuck. Can't wait to fuck your tight fuckhole, pretty." You hid your face into the crook of his neck as you let out small shaky breaths as he began groping your ass, taking fistfuls as he enjoyed playing with your ass. "Why...are you..doing that?" You asked the other who just smirked as he used both his hands to smack on your ass that jiggled, making you yelp as you wrapped your arms around his neck. "Because your ass feels so soft and, well, fuckable. Besides, this isn't the main course yet, sweetie," he stated before he raised his right hand to grip on your hair, pulling it back as you let out a choked up gasp. "I'm gonna have to prep you, darling or else fucking you will hurt. Unless you like it hard and rough, like your ass is being torn apart, until your slutty hole bleeds. Love that idea, hm?" "Th-That's nasty and it looks like it'll be hard for a fragile person like me, Ggukie. I don't want that," you managed to

state as Jeongguk loosened his grip on your hair, looking straight into your eyes as he hummed. The hand he used to pull on your hair found it's way to your mouth, pointing two fingers on your lips, Jeongguk tapping you plump lips. "Open, M/N. Lick my fingers. We'll consider your saliva as lube for now. Forgot mine back in my dorm," he stated with a huge smirk, making you blush as your eyes averted away from his gaze but nonetheless inserted his fingers into your mouth, coating it with your saliva as you swirled your tongue around it, your small hands holding onto his large one. "That's it. Get them nice and wet, slut." Using his fingers, Jeongguk began to play with your tongue, pulling and pinching it in between his forefinger and middle finger, your cheeks became tinted red as you began bucking your hips on his thighs. "Patience, darling. If I didn't know better, I'd think you love my thighs. Do you?" You nodded at his question before Jeongguk pulled his fingers away from your mouth, a string of saliva connecting from it. The other male chuckled as he placed a kiss on your forehead, using his free hand to pull down all of your bottoms, exposing your bubble butt that looked as flawless as ever. "Mhm. What a nice ass you got there, baby. Sure seems like you haven't been touched.." Hearing his words, you whimpered as you hid your face back onto the crook of his neck, feeling his wet fingers hover against the crack of your ass. "Ggukie, please don't hurt me." "I won't hurt you, N/N. I promise," he stated assuringly before he used his free hand to spread one cheek apart from the other, inserting his middle finger into your puckered hole, making you wince at the displeasure. "Does it hurt?" "Y-Yeah, but i-it's nothing I can't handle. Carry on," you stated as you felt him begin to slowly insert his long finger inside your hole, the uncomfortable feeling making you whimper as you hugged him closer. "I'm sorry. It just hurts a little bit.." "Don't worry, pet. It'll be worth it. Trust me," Jeongguk stated before he began to thrust his fingers inside your hole at a slow pace, trying not to hurt you. You let out a sigh as you held onto him for dear life, letting yourself become accustomed to his finger. "A-Ah..." you whimpered as you hung your head low on his shoulder, heaving out trembling breaths as Jeongguk slowly pushed and pulled his finger inside your hole. While you were too focused on getting acquainted to his long and thick finger, the other male chuckled dryly before he used his free hand to land a smack on your ass, making you wince before he used it to caress your bum, to your juicy thighs, dawdling it upwards to your small waist, up to your chest, fully removing the shirt you were wearing. "Hm. Wonder what sounds you make when I play with your nipples?" "N-No, wait..." you stated yet Jeongguk just shrugged before he placed one of your nipples in between his finger, pinching it while he continued to thrust his finger inside your ass. The sudden movement on your sensitive nipple made you moan as you pulled back, placing your hands on his shoulders. "Gguk-ah." "Hm? I prefer 'master', M/N. Why don't you start calling me that, kitten?" he stated as he lunged forward towards your chest, catching your other nipple in his teeth, making you whimper out loud as you threw your head back, pre-cum leaking out your pisshole. You nodded, telling the other you were gonna comply, to which Jeongguk happily replied with a lick to your sensitive nipple, while he began playing with the other one, flicking and pinching around it. It probably was the constant pleasure you were receiving from Jeongguk that you failed to notice him insert another finger inside your hole. He began thrusting his fingers inside your hole, reaching deep within your velvety walls. One particular spot had you moaning in pleasure as you threw your head back, toes curling as Jeongguk never ceased his movements. The other male basked in your moans as he sucked and played with your sensitive buds, all the while fucking your hole with his fingers,

continuously brushing against your prostate that made you see stars. "You've managed to fit two of my fingers inside, kitten. Think you can handle another one?" Gguk asked as he looked up at you, you looking down as tears formed in the corner of your eyes at the constant ecstatic sensation you felt from his fingers. You nodded as your answer, Jeongguk fully satisfied with your response. With that, he entered a third finger, making you wince at the sting as you scratched on his shoulders. "Master, s-slow down p-please," you pleaded. Hearing you call him 'master' had his heart explode, growling as he pulled his fingers out hastily, making you whimper at the sudden loss. "Master, what's wrong?" "Fuck! Keep calling me that, pretty. I'm getting impatient. Let's skip the foreplay and get down right to business," the other male stated as he ripped your boxers off, making you gasp as you looked at him. The other male placed both his hands on your ass lifted you up, guiding your entrance to the tip of his cock. Upon feeling his cockhead prodding against your hole, you moaned as you looked down, hands on your husband's shoulders before looking back at him. "W-Will it hurt?" You asked the other who chuckled before he landed a kiss on your forehead. "Of course it will, since it's been a while but I'll make sure it won't, alright? You trust me, kitten?" Jeongguk asked you which you answered with a nod. With that, he slowly pushed your hips down, the squelching sound of his cock entering your hole made him hum but it was clear as day that you were getting hurt. "Fuck..." "I-It hurts, master. Ah! H-Hurts! Your cock is so big, master! Pull it out," you stated yet Jeongguk assured you by placing a kiss on your cheek, your eyes brimming with salty tears as he stopped your movements. "Just endure a little more. It's just the tip," he smirked, your eyes going wide as saucers which made the male chuckle. "Just th-the tip? It already feels like the whole thing," you managed to say before Jeongguk continued to push you down his cock, eliciting small whimpers from you, tears finally dropping down your eyes. "Agh! It hurts! Take it out, Ggukie! Ah shit.." you hiss as the other male continued to do what he was doing. You were about to retort again yet Jeongguk somehow noticed that you were about to do it again so he crashed his lips onto yours, taking you by surprise as the other male stopped inserting his huge cock. You unexpectedly pulled away and stared at the other male with wide eyes. "We can make out while I push everything in. Think of it as a distraction, yeah?" Jeongguk offered before he crashed his lips onto yours again, fully distracting you from the pain as he slowly kissed you, you doing the same. It was the first time since forever that you two have decided to have sex. You closed your eyes as you began to kiss the other male back, what once was a soft make-out session turned into something wild. Little by little, Jeongguk slowly inserted his cock in, the kiss both distracting you two.

You held onto his shoulders and looked at him, eyed half-lidded as you looked at him with lust glazed in your eyes. "Master..." "That's right, pretty. See? The distraction worked. I'm fully inside you now," he stated, looking down towards your stomach, a huge bulge evident as he pressed on it making you moan as you threw your head back. "What do you want me to do?" "Fuck..mee.." "What? I think I didn't hear you well enough, slut. Did you say pull out?" Jeongguk teased you yet you shook your head and grinded your ass, the other male groaning as he cursed. "Fuckin' shit." "I-I want you to fuck me hard, master. I want you to cum inside me," you whispered seductively towards the other who growled as he held your hips and stood up, exiting the bathroom, making you chuckle lewdly before you felt your back hit the surface of the round, glass table. The kissing, your abused prostate, and your erect buds must've been the reason why you're not in the right state of kind, just saying stuffs on impulse. Yet you liked this anyway. "Huh, what a fuckin' cum bitch. Want me to fuck you roughly, yeah?!" Jeongguk stated in an angered manner as he pulled out, making you whimper. You were about to protest but he immediately slammed back in making you throw your head back as you held on to the edges of the table, eliciting a pitched moan from you. "O-Oh God, fuck! Yess p-please, master! Want you to fuck me stupid until I forget my own name. Fuck me until I'm pregnant, master!" You shouted to the other who just chuckled darkly, beginning to thrust his dick in a slow pace. "Noo~! Master, do it faster! I-I want you to fuck me hard!" Your desperate needs was what Jeongguk wanted to hear. "Is that so? I don't think I should though. Don't want to hurt you," he stated yet you shook your head in annoyance, tears slipping down your eyes as you tried to buck your hips onto his cock but he stopped you. "I want to cum already, master! Please," you stated yet you looked at Jeongguk who stopped. You weren't dumb. Taehyung has already told you a lot about 'begging and teasing'. So, you decided to do what it takes just so you can finally get fucked. You held the back of your knees and raised it, exposing your thigh while giving Gguk full acces to gaze at your hole that clenched around his cock. "Don't you want to hear my loud moans, master? Hm? Guess you're no fun after all. What a dumb master! Not giving me what I want." Wait, that wasn't begging. You were just being a full-on brat and Jeongguk despised it one bit, making him growl as he held your hips tightly that bruises were sure to appear the next morning. "I should watch what I'm saying if I were you, pretty," he threatened yet you rolled your eyes and slowly pulled his dick out of you. "Fuck, no wonder everyone says you suck in bed." With that, a switch had turned on inside Jeongguk's brain which made him angry as he held your hips and growled, shouting out in anger as he pushed his cock back in inside you, hitting your prostate dead-on. "AH FUCK! MASTER!" You were about to cum, that familiar coil inside your stomach appeared again. You were already clenching around his cock, which Jeongguk took as a sing that you were about to cum. Smirking, he stopped his movements, making you whine as you looked up at the male. "About to cum?" "Y-Yes. Why did you stop, Ggukie?" You asked the male who just chuckled at your state, you whining as you tried to rut your hips against his only to be denied as he held your hips down. "B-But, master, I want to cum," you begged the other who just scoffed as he inserted his whole cock inside you, making you scream out. Jeongguk began doing the same thing continuously, earning loud whines from you as he did. Every single time you'd give him sign that you were xoming, he'd stop. Tears began trailing down your eyes at the sudden pleasure, toes curled as you let go of your legs, hands finding their way back on the table. "Just fucking do me, Jeongguk!" You shouted. Your sudden attitude had sent Gguk in rage before he finally began plwoing your ass at a fast

pace, making you throw your head back as your eyes rolled back in ecstasy, tongue lolled out. "You sissy brat! Want me to fucking tear your boy pussy, you cunt? Want me to pump you full with my cock until you can no longer take it?! I'm gonna make you fucking pregnant, you slut!" "Wait, wiat. Yun—AHH! FUCK! SHIIIIT~!" You moaned loudly as your husband began thrusting his dick in and out of you, drilling his cock in a fast pace in your hole, your own member slapping against your stomach. The pre-cum that seeped through the slit of your cock was smeared on your abdomen as you moaned uncontrollably loud everytime Jeongguk's cock hit your prostate. "Mmgh! AHH! FUCK! F-Feels good! Feeeels~AH! GOOD! Fuuuck yeeaaah!" You instinctively place your hands on his shoulders, fisting on his coat as your body lay on the cold table your hair bouncing every hard thrust that Jeonggum sent to your hole. "Fuck! Pet, your bussy feels so tight and warm around my cock. Bet you've been fuckin' around with some other guys?" You moaned as you threw your head back, tongue out in pleasure as drool dripped from it, saliva trickling down the corners of your lips. "Oh God! Fuckfuckfuck! Your dick feels so goood, master! Spear me with your cock, master! AGH! AH HAH FUCK MEEE~!" The other male just chuckled darkly before he held onto the back of your knees and pushed it toward you, shocked at your own flexibility. It gave him more access to drill his cock deeper, which he gladly did, his eyes trailing towards your stomach, an evident bulge can be seen everytime he thrusted deep. "Fuck, see? Can you feel me in your stomach, pretty?" You nodded as you used one hand to tap on it, pressing down as you let out a whiney cry uet pleasured moan. "Ahhhaaa fuuuck~! Look! Master! Your cock! It's hitting my stomach! Oh my god! I'm gonna get pregnant! Please please cum inside you cum dumpster, master!" Maybe Jeongguk's stamina was a bit low today but fuck hearing your moans and pleas has made his inner stomach coil. "Fuck! Your so hot, M/N. I'm gonna fuckin' cum inside your boy pussy and make you pregnant! Stupid bitch!" Your eyes literally glittered, showing heart eyes as you held onto your own cock and began jerking it off yet Jeongguk stopped you. "Wh-Why...?" "Want you to cum with just my cock, bitch," he stated, his sweat dropping on you as his hair stuck to his forehead. Your body was glistening with sweat and the whole room was beginning to smell like dried-up cum and sex. You nodded eagerly before Gguk attached his lips to yours, kissing you torridly as his thrusts quickened. Your moans gradually became louder as you shook underneath him, feeling your orgasm arrive as you began fucking yourself on Jeongguk's cock. The male pulled away from the kiss and placed his forehead on yours. "Fuckfuckfuck. I'm close," he announced as his thrust became sloppy, nothing more in his mind as he tried to find his own release. "I'm fuckin' cumming! Cum with me, baby! Fuck!" With one final thrust, you both came at the same time, a guttural moan escaping Jeongguk's lips while you let out a salacious lewd chuckle, your own cock squirting ropes after ropes as your husband coated your velvety walls white with his own cum. You laid down limply on the table yet Jeongguk held you back up. "Didn't you tell me you wanted me to fuck you stupid? We're still jot halfway done darling." Oh no. With that, you spent the whole afternoon fucking each other inside your home.

Can you talk about BL that ‘feels like fanfiction’? Here and elsewhere I’ve seen BLs described as ‘feeling like fanfic,’ but what does ‘fanfiction-like’ connote/denote? Is it pejorative? Is ‘fanfickiness’ defined by tropes, or plot structure, or pacing? I might be asking what countries’ BLs feel more fanficky, but are webnovel-to-screen adaptations or manga/manhwa-to-screen more fanficky usually? How is fanfic-community taste/$$$ shaping BL texts (originals/adaptations) lately? TY ILY help plz

BL that has a Fanfic Style 

Ah it's a commentary on narrative style. And not pejorative. At least not from me.

I think fanfic-ness is defined by narrative style, or lack of one. Fanfic rarely has an intentional narrative arc or structure (so no 3 act or kishōtenketsu or anything like that). Most fanfic isn’t planned out or outlined from start to finish, as a story, (intentional or instinctual planning) the way traditionally published books are. It doesn't follow romance beats, or a narrative chassis like the hero or heroine's journey, save the cat, etc.... OF COURSE THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS. Don’t fucking @ me in a huff you drama queens. 

It's more episodic, in that the distribution of tension (and peril) is less predictable (kiss at 1/3, relationship crisis at 1/2, confession at 2/3, twist at 3/4, etc...) and more based on reader retention from one installment to the next. So the idea is more that each segment needs a hook and a draw to retain readers for the next one. 

Frankly in BL this is owed to webtoons and manga more than fanfic, but for writers and narrative analysis critics, fanfic makes a better reference point.

This style is particularly common in Thai BL because of Love Sick and then Make It Right which started the trend in Thai BL. And these two shows spawned what I like to call the Thai pulps, a whole tradition in Thai BL that acts a lot more like fanfic than anything else.

There's often multiple couples and an ensemble cast. Sometimes one couple is given more attention than others (see Gen Y; Top Secret Together; You're My Sky), sometimes two couples are weighted relatively equally with a few other couples (Why R U?), and sometimes it just a big joyous mess (see a few Pinoy dramas).

So the viewer appeal for something in this fanfic arena is more like a soap opera or medical drama etc... Viewers are following the series for character interactions first (plot second, if there is plot). Often we’re bought in not even for the main pair. We tune in because we like side couples. We accept that some of those side pairs might not even end up getting together and we might have to wait for a second season.

For older viewers (who have no soap opera background) fanfic style BL can be a turn off. And we can lash out in frustration over the lack of a narrative arc. I tend to prefer a “clean narrative arc and strong point of view” myself (I started out as a reader of romance, than then yaoi, not a watcher of romance or anime). I'll get annoyed when a show “waffles too much.” I'm learning, however, to chek myself and appreciate this style as a different art form. 

And then Gen Y 2 happens and I get mad all over again.

For most viewers who grew up with fanfic and reading it, there's no barrier to entry on BLs of this type, it's just a different kind of story structure. Or they're okay with the lack of it.

Neither is better or worse, they just both ARE.

(Incidentally there are now MAJOR authors who started in fanfic and still use this style and some of the more frowned up (but WILDLY popular trope) like Mary Sue, they just sell so well big publishing whistles softly to itself and turns a blind eye: Stephenie Meyer, E. L. James, Cassandra Claire. I don’t know how she started but Sarah Maas also uses this style. These tend to be authors who are wildly popular and pillorized by critics. Of course.) 

So yeah, what the hell do the critics know? Well they know what they once learned about in school mainly. Which means they tend to be behind the times. 

ALSO

There are legitimately some BLs that started out as fanfic. Nitiman was originally a GOT7 fic about Jinyoung and Jay B. Which, frankly, I prefer not to think about. 

(I’m one of those who draws the line at IRL fanfic... sorry. I know too many celebrities personally to find that anything but really quite gross. Personal hang up. Call it a trigger if it pleases you.)
