PAT & PRAN ↳ food as a love language ♡

#bad buddy #asianlgbtqdramas #ohm pawat #nanon korapat #patpran #pranpat #pat x pran #pran x pat #'the world begins at a kitchen table. no matter what - we must eat to live.' #do you think pran and pat watched each other quietly all throughout high school to know what the other liked to eat most? #do you think that pran can't look at those drinks anymore without thinking of that time where he wanted to stretch out an olive #branch and was immediately cut down in his attempt? do you think that pat smiles whenever he sees 3 wontons in someone's bowl? #do you think - back when they were little and easing into their uncertain relationship after pran saved pha - that they were kids? #do you think pat reluctantly shared his ice lolly with pran - sticky artificial lemon melting down their fingers - to say thank you? #it just really hits because food is such an integral and unmissable part of asian culture. it's something you do with friends and family. #we see countless times in the series how the individual groups eat together and how they check up on each other while eating #eating together is a sense of love and friendship and affection that is hard to parallel in any other way #and pran and pat were robbed of that when they were younger. eating together is vulnerable - you expose your manners and your #favourite foods and you need to keep the conversation going - and so they never did it because they were never friends. #but we see now ... how they reclaim the idea of food as a metaphor for love in asian culture by easing into it together. #pran saying 'have you eaten?' holds multitudes of meaning. it speaks testament to how much he loves and cares about pat. #them eating together and wiping the rice away from each other's mouths ... oh man. #'the people who give you food give you their heart.' #or better put: 'food is symbolic of love when words are inadequate.' #rahul.gif #*bb
