yall I fr thought s3 was gonna suck cuz everyone kept complaining about how s3 is legit pwp but theres only 3 ch in s3 rn what r yall on abt TT like let it develop first it's not even all smut either bsfr and we all knew that when Doha was gonna see Bada again, he was gonna jump that man lets be real here ╥﹏╥
Just a random thought, but it's genuinely sad to see that the MC is more comfortable and freed with Hayden, someone who's considered the "bad crowd" in societal standards (does drugs, smokes, pr*stitution(?), has little parental guidance), than his own parents, who aren't exactly the ideal parents but not parents some would consider "terrible" at first glance (religious, "caring," active (I feel like yall r gonna argue with me on the parents part TT))
the juxtaposition kills me though, especially as someone who's been raised (as most are) to avoid people like Hayden (NOT SAYING YOU SHOULD ACTIVELY SEEK OUT PEOPLE WHO USE DRUGS!!)
i'm so done with all these comments talking about how this is about grooming cuz have you even read the first chs?? it's obvious (as of rn) that Tennessee has ZERO intention of getting with the kid; he's literally actively trying to establish clear boundaries and has stated that even if the kid becomes an adult, he will not pursue him. yes, they're the main ship, ik, but he isn't attracted to the underage kid and def isn't grooming
JUST because there is an age gap does not mean someone was groomed, please stop spreading misinformation. i feel like sm of the readers just misunderstand because they're always online and interpret it as what they're expecting based on what they've seen online
ok so I read this a while back (quit at ch 106 dont remember why lol) and I'm picking it up again but I feel like i'm kinda missing the plot.. I didn't fully understand it in the first place so yk not great LOL but could someone help clear up some important plot points/characters plz? specifically, I'd like to know about the curse they've been talking abt bc it seems important but i'm lost lol











This mc actually means so much to me not just as a character but as a person, like he's so relatable to me it kind of hurts my heart
The idea that he's a smart, perfect kid that "threw it all away" for his passion is so freakin resonating because that's exactly the debate that I can't get over.
Because objectively, I also am a pretty smart kid with a chance for a bright future. I have straight A's, 34 on my ACT, number 5 out of 550 students in ranks, no.1 on a sports team, I SPAM APs like there's no tmr, skipped a grade in math and therefore, this is technically the last year im required to take it, and i know im not THE smart kid, but I don't think im stupid yk?
The worst part is that I wish I could be interested in something thats really good career-wise: bio, med, law, finance, engineering but I'm just n o t. I REALLY want to be a screenwriter but it just seems so ridiculous yk? Like its too unstable and ultimately not going to work out.
I'm prob gonna major in computer science/cybersecurity in college for a "stable future" but it kills me inside, even if I get the chance to minor in film.
I have so much respect for the MC for choosing what he loves as someone who's too scared to.
ik nobody signed up for ts but I need to get it out somehow im sorry ┗( T﹏T )┛
I don't have any practical words :( but I do wish you luck and happiness in the future
Thank you so much it truly means a lot
I was in a similar situation a few years ago... and because of my family situation, I chose a career that was considered to have a future in the job market, and now I’m working at a major company in its industry. I’ve been there for two years and I’m physically and mentally exhausted (plus I’m in a toxic work environment). I’m good at what I do based on my results, but I’m so worn out that all I can think about is fleeing this city to do anything else that will allow me to make a living... So, if you can afford it, I’d recommend finding a way to do what you want or doing it alongside another career (or you’ll be too exhausted to think about it later, like I am now)... If you need to talk, my dms are open. I wish you the best of luck!
You don't need to give up on your dream of being a screenwriter. I have a dream of being an artist and I followed that path, which didn't work for me because it's also a difficult path, and without financial stability it's hard to be one. This left me in a loop where I don't have money to be an artist, and without producing, I don't have money. So my recommendation is to choose a job that gives you financial stability but doesn't take up too much of your time, because that way you'll have the money and stability to invest in your dream of being a screenwriter, and little by little you can change professions.
I'm so sorry to hear that, that's genuinely awful. While I might not fully understand how exhausted you are, I can safely say (based on my personal experience) that it is a terrible feeling :(
Thank you so much for your words, they really did help <3
I might hit you up on the dms offer sometime, but until then, I'm wishing you all the best :)
Thank you for your advice! I really appreciate it. I think that is the most realistic yet ideal plan, although I'm honestly scared I may never be fully willing to leave stability for my dreams when the time comes, if that makes sense.
I'm sorry about your current situation, and I hope you can find your way back to art one day <3
I thank you as well :) much love!
