In addition to my favorite BJ line, QAF has so much to say, it is classic, inspiring and innovative. I will continue to update my thoughts on QAF here, in fact, the thoughts on the entire five seasons, just posted here in the first season~ 20210111 Talk about the BJ in my heart

Maybe it's because of the influence of Volleyball Boy, Full Time Hunter, Mischievous Kiss, and so many other works. I know that the ending of all stories can't be the ending. Unless it's a whitehead, then it's just like the evil kiss. In the form of a few silhouettes. Because no matter what the story is, the story is much more than that. The presentation on the screen is just a node. If the characters in these stories are real and three-dimensional enough, then I will believe that they will continue to live in another parallel world. "Refers to continuing to operate in their world according to the three views and personalities given to them by the creator. They will have new contradictions, encounter new (or essentially old) propositions in life, new separations and reunions, the luck to eventually accompany them together, and the regrets that they will eventually move forward separately.

A lyric of the director's soundtrack when the two had sex for the last time was It will rise and fall.

My understanding is that Sun will rise and fall.

And this Sun is both Sunshine Justin, Uncle B, and all of us. Our world has love, career, ambition, reality, and many, many things. Justin was indeed like the sun at eight or nine in the morning. I have been with my uncle for five years, and he is only twenty-two years old. He still has a very broad life waiting for him to develop, but when the sun rises, it naturally also sets. Xiao Ai's previous experience has already explained Age is nothing in front of love, it is just the mutual attraction and cherishing between two souls and bodies. So maybe after Bao is out and about, Sun will also have a day of fall. When it is willing to settle down in Xishan, he and his uncle may finally go to marriage and family. So although many people say that they are very upset about the final outcome, I don't feel it at all, I just feel very relieved.

A lyric that keeps repeating in the director's song for the final scene is: Whatever you do, you gotta stay true.

That's right.

Because of family reasons, Uncle B is full of disgust and even physical nausea to marriage and family.

Uncle B is really miserable, even though he doesn't seem to have any troubles in terms of financial resources and mate attractiveness, he is a complete failure in terms of family, being slandered and molested by his nephew, and has a sister who only complains about running a business (although I think his sister It’s okay at least to help take care of parents or take good care of them. It’s not easy to disturb my uncle, but I still don’t have the slightest understanding and love for my uncle. A mother who goes to hell (even when you have a tumor), a father who doesn't want to reconcile when he dies (only a grandson to reconcile). In fact, Uncle B has long since given up hope for his family. For his parents, he just maintains polite respect and tries not to interfere with each other's lives.

In QAF's big family, it seems that they are very happy and happy, but in fact they are only each other. Most of the people in the outside world and their parents are in a very bad state. Only Mike is the lucky one and has support. And understand his mother, of course J Bao is also lucky to have a beautiful, intelligent and understanding mother, although his father is still an asshole.

Why does J Bao have a fatal attraction to Uncle B?

First of all, J Bao's buttocks and blond hair, milk skin and handsome face are indispensable. He stepped on Uncle B's aesthetic point. I want to say that there are people who know how to enjoy sex in this world who don't like smelting copper. There is no need to say much about the youthful spirit overflowing from Justin, Mei and Jiao are also just right, and I am also intoxicated.

Secondly, J Bao's childlike pure, warm and sincere love, admiration and company. No one does not love to be praised, to be known as someone, and to be stared at deeply by a pair of star eyes. Not to mention Brian, the person who lacks love to the extreme. 身边的朋友只有迈克是无条件地真的爱他的,不计较他性格上那些欠揍的缺点,而是选择理解他的,其实Linz也有这个特点,这也是为什么Brian和她有相对close的关系, But even so, when faced with the huge flaws in Brian's character, even Mike and Lindsay couldn't stand him, they would choose to escape, not to provoke Brian, and let him fend for himself. "It's his own choice, he's such a person", never abandoning him from beginning to end, he is evenly matched and does not talk about changes, but has always been influenced by sincere love, only Justin.

It must be the same when it is substituted into ourselves. Those who respect, understand and truly love our true selves can become best friends. Even queer, they will have different values, there will also be conflicts of values, and they also need to understand and reconcile with each other.

Third, Bao and Uncle are mutual redemption and mutual growth. In fact, the two of them have a lot in common. After all, they are both people who are involved in art. One is engaged in advertising design and the other is engaged in painting. Sex is both of them. An important source of inspiration, two people have always treated sex as a kind of beauty and wild experience and release, creation and enjoyment. Both have a need for ridiculously romantic, and both respect and appreciate each other's careers. They are not afraid of worldly vision, dare to stand up to themselves, have great courage, and the strength to support this courage, which is why they are evenly matched, and Mike and Linz are Brian's partners after all.

Fourth, many important nodes in the life of two people are supported and accompanied by each other.

When Uncle encountered a colleague's sexual harassment lawsuit and his career was almost game over, it was J Bao who threatened the other party with his underage status to withdraw the lawsuit.

When Uncle was suffering from cancer, it was J Bao who accompanied him and persuaded him to accept the care and care of others instead of being brave by himself.

Bao faced his father's threat after coming out of the closet, and it was his uncle who came forward to help him say "this is not love, but hate".

When Bao was attacked and almost died when ptsd couldn't do it manually, it was Uncle B's unconditional companionship and love that made him accept the touch of others again, pick up the paintbrush again, insist on his dream, return to a normal life, and regain confidence and arrogance.

After Bao gained the opportunity in New York, Uncle also took this matter very seriously. He didn't want Bao to make huge sacrifices for his future just to be with him.

Uncle is the rage in Treasure's heart, the super hero of Keogh City. In fact, Uncle is not that great. At first, he didn't have anything to save the gay community, fight, defend the rights and protect the freedom of Babylon. The love of the savior, he does not have such an arrogant individual Heroism, he never needs this kind of illusion, he is never ashamed of worldly desires, but under the impetus of Bao, he has actually done a lot of meaningful things, the original intention of those things, such as smashing them with a sledgehammer The door of Babylon's dark room, in fact, for Uncle at first, it was really just unhappy and wanted to go in and fuck, but Bao gave it meaning and told him the meaning, the goodness in his heart was practiced and called, and the praise of others gave him happiness The weight, when you are firmly believed as a superhero by a person, is itself a huge motivation to become stronger.

For Bao, Uncle's strength and firmness are simply one of his beliefs. Bao said in the first episode that he met a god-like man. Uncle always had a tall figure in his heart, but at the same time, Bao was not blindly admiring and delusional about his uncle. He also saw the small and paranoid Brian. , the peer person Brian who was huddled like a hedgehog with a similar mental age.

For Uncle, Bao's purity, bravery and enthusiasm are like the sun, and the youthful spirit is like a spring breeze, which can make people ten years younger. But at the same time, Bao's precociousness and sensibleness, respect and understanding for him are also his good medicine. Although Bao is so many years younger than him, he can also become a safe haven for him. to his sweet heart.

Fifth, they respect, understand and cherish each other's true selves. There was one episode that really touched me. When my uncle was suffering from cancer and was going to have surgery, he told J Bao that he was going on a trip without telling the truth. He told J Bao again in a frivolous and unconcerned tone that he had made a decision and left. On the trip, I still used the same old scene of fucking around with handsome guys all over the ground. When J Bao recognized something was wrong and asked the truth again, Uncle was furious and pulled the distance between them again, stating that my freedom treasure is not qualified to control it. Such hurtful words, and subconsciously trying to be a hedgehog. However, J Bao did not have the slightest anger or confusion towards his uncle. He expressed great respect and understanding, and firm love and waiting for him. This is really a perfect answer. That open and broad love is like a plain Like the rising sun above, warm, dazzling and eternal. To be able to meet such a love, I just want to say that this life is enough. In the last few episodes, Bao saw through the excuse that he didn't care about Gus immigration at a glance, and persuaded him to express his thoughts and demands, not just treat himself as an anonymous passerby. love, and encourage uncle to express it. This is so touching qwq

Uncle has always seen and appreciated Bao's talent. He couldn't help showing off to Mike that his partner was a genius. He respected and cherished Bao's creation, urged him to study, respected and persuaded Bao to seize the opportunity, whether it was Hollywood or New York. He never thought that Bao was just a little kid, he respected Bao.

Uncle once said that Hope Bao will become the best comrade, and this sentence has a special meaning. Not that he was just a romantic and successful comrade. Why is it not a good person but a comrade, because Uncle knows that being a comrade will make a person face special and additional challenges, whether it is the temptation of lust, prejudice and harm from the outside world, or self-exploration, this exploration is not a compromise , nor is it indulgence, nor is it a Buddhist system that is willing to mediocre assimilation, it needs to form a balance among many factors, and our Sunshine has done it.

There is another special point about the evenness of B and J, that is, they never try to let themselves fall into a miserable situation. For some details, they will not tangle too much in the net of indulging in negative emotions. The pattern is open and visible. The core and essence of the contradiction. For example, after J Bao was hospitalized, he never knew that uncle came to see him every day, but he would not hate uncle because of it. It was not that he complained about himself in the hospital and gave up on himself. Continuous rehabilitation exercises are only for the purpose of being discharged from the hospital as soon as possible. After I found my uncle, I also carried out calm communication and full self-expression, instead of wasting time on preconceived notions. This is really powerful. I ask myself that it is difficult to achieve.

They are evenly matched to complement each other and join hands to redeem each other and enjoy the love of sex calmly. It's really, really, really beautiful.

Brian in Sunshine.

If Brian is a gift to the gays from the god, then Justin is the gift to Brian from the god.

Love is not sacrifice.

Love is free but not a simple sacrifice or even a sacrifice.

Love is more than that.
