Only Friends เพื่อนต้องห้าม Ep 5
I'm finally caught up and oh, OH, this was a ride. This was very much Sand's episode, and I have a feeling when he finally does something to disappoint me he's going to devastate me … and I welcome it. He's such a well-written character so far. Feels very, very real.
Ray … it feels like he's genuinely got feelings for Sand, but he's also very much not over Mew and NOT ready to put a name to or commit to being more than fwb with Sand.
Mew kind of grew on me even more this episode, except for his inexplicable-to-me attraction to Top.
I missed Namcheuam this episode and hope to see her more next week.
Nick trying to be more like Top this episode was awful to watch, Boston seeming to react to it in a positive way was possibly worse.
Boston is the epitome of 22-y-o "I'm just telling it like I see it" and doesn't care what or who he hurts in the process. At this point I'm pretty sure the fact that Neo plays him so charmingly is his only saving grace. And the person who filmed him? probably Drake's character. Wonder whether he'll get a name eventually … which reminds me we still haven't met whoever it is Papang plays.
ANYWAY. That' the tl;dr; rambling live watch commentary below. I'm going to dive into the tag and try to see what I missed.
oh Sand, I LOVE you
new bottle design?
I love Yo, I love her so much
Sand, I'm sorry, but ชัวโมงผิเษศของไอ้เรย์ is the sweetest thing and I also take back every word I said about Sand not falling for Ray, clearly I have bad people reading skills
god Nick's e-girl look in this opening clip, I cannot
wait, does this mean next episode is Namcheuam's? everyone else has had theirs, right?
did you run out to a bakery for those croissants, Sand?
asdfasdfadsf I love them
HAHAHA NICK oh man oh man
Sand was like "… dude"
asdfasdfas Ray can't even take care of himself, wtf Nick
I can't get a read on Ray. is he trying to distract himself? is this a legitimate attempt to get over Mew? does he even know himself? idk idk
oh Nick. spite may be a great motivator, but I'm not sure this is going to work
oh fuck that's SO dangerous what are you DOING keep your eyes on the road when you bike!
YIKES
that was very VERY lucky, oh man
I love Sand and I'm really afraid that when I eventually find a flaw of his it'll be really disappointing
those helmets look like they'd do NOTHING if they faceplanted
I LOVE this, goodness
Sand, you want to be a stylist, huh
it is a very tight shirt
please don't get frisky in the CHANGING room. Boys. I know you're 22, but --
I love themmmm
Top, if you could stop it with the fucking negging that'd be grand
oh, it's the dealer (?) guy
And Mew clocked something because he doesn't just LOOK smart
Boston checking Nick out, huh
Nick's got his number but he refuses to save (or whatever the metaphor is here)
Neo's really good at looking smitten with someone, which is a shame because I'm pretty sure Boston isn't into Nick like that
Nickkk don't ask questions you don't want the answers to
Boston, you're being an asshole rn. you KNOW that's what Nick hopes for.
oh I love this shot
I love that Nick kinda detests Top while Top detests both Nick and Boston and Boston is jealous af of Mew
Sand is back and Summer just disappears. I feel sorta bad for her, but … SANDRAY
JEKD, huh? neat though. the music has The Smiths vibes
annnd Summer's given up
Aaah Blind Dining/DInner in the Dark is so cool!!
Is the staffer mad about the "glasses off same thing" comment? I think I might've been in his place.
oh that's bound to go wrong-- oop
also dudes you're being SO noisy. honestly how quiet it is here is very unlike my experience.
oh Ray, oh baby
OH it's the baseball bat rooftop
Ray, rapidly re-evaluating what's going on
oh, I love this
A mum who uses rude-familiar language with her kid, huh. We've seen it in dads, but I don't remember hearing it from many mums before.
I bet this debt collector business is going to come back and bite them in the ass, boy-who-cried-wolf style
ahahahah I LOVE Sand turning the tables on Ray like that but also I hope Ray's voice is as good as Khaotung's
oh this is so sweet
wonder if/when we'll get a "you hafta tell her, she knows!" type scene in here because I sure was thinking it
Mum is like -- yep
Okay, okay but -- Mew, your acting said you don't believe him, what's the game here??
Also "use a condom" is probably the best advice to come out of Boston's mouth so far
Top, you're making it very hard to believe you love anyone but yourself, sorry
I can't believe we're not even halfway through the show
Mew does not seem super into it and also that sofa looks very VERY uncomfortable, material-wise. Plasticky.
22yos is2g
early morning hours and booze and honesty
OH the way Sand's hand sorta twitched when Ray said that
Ray. Love. It's not your fault. Depression is insidious.
Oh no, are Nick and Boston going to interrupt AGAIN
Oh Sand :(
Bostonnnn
Sand looks like he's going to KILL Boston and he'd be right to
Boston is just. Terrible.
oooooof this is a party gone wrong for real
they were so cute and then it all went wrong
shit, Sand really is in love with him and HURT.
BABY
Sand, I don't think you should be driving

SEP AU DETAILS I AM GRABBING THEM GRABBING THEMMMM!!
Man you're really twisting my arm here /J
My Au is called All Lost is Found and I'm gonna put the shit under a cut because I just know it's gonna be eight miles long :)
SO BASICALLY! Barry Drax had a series of prototype mystic supersoldiers he was trying to work on before he actually mutated his "real" super soldiers (the turtles). He goes through 26 unsuccessful mutations (ie. The subject dies before the mutation can be completed) before finally landing a win with Subject 27.
27 lives two years in Draxums lab before the mutagen is perfected via dubiously ethical experiments done on him until Lou Jitsu and the Turtles are brought into the lab. Action scene proceeds as normal EXCEPT! 27 is present and attempts to rescue the freshly cooked baby mutants. Lou Jitsu manages to get all of em except Raph, who is picked up by 27 before the lab explodes.
27 and Raph are homeless for a while before being picked up by the hidden city equivalent of social services and placed in a home. Their moms adore them, give them names, they basically grow up normal kids (except for 27, now named Vincent like da van gogh, who has knowledge™️ of the before times).
The reason it's called all lost is found is because the kick off of the AU is Raph (also called Ellie) coming home to find her moms and brother missing and their house basically burned to nothing. She's gotta. She's gotta. Find the lost haha.
The other three turtles are essentially raised about the same, except Splinter is very up front with them about their missing sibling, though they're pretty positive she's dead. Ellie also believes that the other three are dead cuz Vincent didn't think they made it out alive. ANYWAY. Leo and Donnie co-lead somewhat responsibly and they're a little more. Focused and? Idk not dedicated but interested in training n such. So they've got some skills especially in stealth cuz its just the three of them without their big strong tank yknow?
So basically it's Ellie trying to figure out where the fuck her family went and why they disappeared and also her reuniting with her long lost family.
I might make it a fic orrrrr maybe a comic? Prolly a fic with accompanying images and pictures but yeah! That's the basics of the au. Although everything is mapped out in the ol noggin so if you have more specific questions I'd be happy to give em an answer ^_^
