diferent annon but hey everytime people talk about why kai ships are so lowkey either graps about he being the youngest, or the guy with the least fans ( something i CAN'T understand like. Everytime that there's a show people won't want his or tyun's photocards and BOY WHY THE HELL YOU CALL YOUSELF A FUCKING MOA IF YOU DON'T LOVE THE FIVE OF THEM? CHOI LINE WOULD AGREE WITH ME YOU ASSHOLE!) or even that all kai ships lacks conflicts because there's no way to deny how the members loves kai.
And all points annoys me but the last one is one is the one that annoys me the most because even in ships like sookai that the very nature of their bond screams "friends to lovers" THERES SO MANY ways to put conflict!
- friends who love each other BUT at the wrong time until it works (the conflict would be pinning and getting over)
- friends with benefits that get messy after the sex part (classical 'i want a relationship' versus a 'i can only do casual')
- friends that marry each other to evade taxes and actually fall in love with each other (all the previous boundaries would be broken and tha would put the characters under a new circunstance)
- friends that decide to help the other win their crush but in the midst of it they fall in love with each other and then their drama
- Fake relationship that developts into real relationship
- "I will only see you as my brother" time passes and "holly shit"
- recently married sookai dealing with living together problems and small fights like Kai wants his house clean, soobin always forgets his cleaning duties and kai is mad because he feels like he has double work hours (his actual job and cleaning the house). This exemple sounds silly bc its a REAL issue to many couples
- friends who are also rivals and too pridefull to actually act on it
- strangers to lovers and all the misurtendings (sorry i'm a litlle drunk right now so i don't remember some words and probably i am just rantng bc i'm bitter)
AND THE LIST GOES ON!!!!!!!
the point i want to make is: People claims that any kai ships lack conflicts but they're just fucking lazy to pull effort or just use this argument to hide a worse cause: that they don't care
sorry i got to this so late but i totally agree on all points i think people just honestly don't care much about kai and thus don't care about his ships in general which is sad LOL and doesn't encourage the people that already do write kai ships...and i agree, to claim sookai lacks tension is crazy to me - perhaps you have to work harder to find it than some other ships but it's not nonexistent. it's like nobody considers the fact that "friends to lovers" holds the entire risk of ruining the friendship for a relationship...there's so much tension right there
