So, India Is Dying.

So, India is dying.

Look, I know a good number of you are from the US and things aren't amazing there either, but my country is literally on the brink of collapse. So I'd love it if we could talk about that for a minute.

If you can't do anything else, please just read and reblog.

A second COVID wave has taken out the healthcare system. There are no more hospital beds. There's an oxygen shortage. There's a critical vaccine shortage. The Central Government has thrown its hands up and is passing the baton to the State Governments to do what they can.

There are over 16 million covid cases. A record 330,000 new cases reported yesterday - comparable to the US at its peak. 187,000 dead as of today.

There is no plan.

Mass cremations are taking place. The cremation grounds are running day and night and they are short on wood. People are watching their loved ones die while waiting for a hospital bed, and then they're unable to give them the proper burial rights.

So, India Is Dying.

Hospitals are overwhelmed. Patients are being confined, two to a bed. They're the lucky ones.

So, India Is Dying.

We are on the verge of people dying in the streets.

This is the second-most populous country in the world. The largest democracy. A country that encapsulates over 15,000 years of recorded human history and has endured everything from famine to invasion to colonisation.

We might be at the end. This might be the thing that does us in.

People are dying.

So, India Is Dying.

People are dying.

So, India Is Dying.

People are dying and there is no plan.

So, India Is Dying.

More good news? Variants are popping up. A double mutation strain has shown up. It is resistant to current vaccines. This will not go away. This is the devastation they warned of when the anti-maskers were out protesting the minor inconvenience of covering their face in public.

My country is on the verge of an emergency state. Our government has failed us. This is as dire a situation as it ever could be.

Look. I don't do much with my life. I write fics, some of you have read them and that's pretty much it. I spend my days with my head in the clouds because that's where I like to be.

But two days ago, my grandmother tested positive, had to be taken to hospital and the ambulance caught fire.

She barely made it to the urgent care she needs.

So, here I am, using whatever meager platform I have to cobble this request together. Because I have to do something.

If you can, donate.

Or spread the word.

Help. Please.

I Thought, This Is The Most Incredible Thing I’ve Ever Seen, And I Had Better Keep It A Safe Distance

I thought, this is the most incredible thing I’ve ever seen, and I had better keep it a safe distance away from me. I thought, if someone like that ever loved me, it would set me on fire.

And then I was a careless fool, and I fell in love with you anyway. When you rang me at truly shocking hours of the night, I loved you. When you kissed me in disgusting public toilets and pouted in hotel bars and made me happy in ways in which it had never even occurred to me that a mangled-up, locked-up person like me could be happy, I loved you.

And then, inexplicably, you had the absolute audacity to love me back. Can you believe it?

so did you lay in bed blasting fireflies by owl city as a kid staring up at the ceiling while imagining running away to a happier place bc you grew up on fairy tales and make believe stories since you didnt really have the best social skills due to undiagnosed neurodivergency and thus didnt have a lot of friends so you spent all that extra time you had induldging in fictional stories and then grew up believing maybe one day youd get to go on a magical adventure like those stories had so youd spent so much time just longing for an escape and to go somewhere you understood bc you didnt understand people but you did understand all those stories you read or are you normal

Backstory From KTO's Interviews

Backstory from KTO's interviews

Jun-ho is from a well-to-do family and his parents are both attorneys. He especially admired his mother, and tried to be a lawyer but didn't make it. Even though it was his dream, Jun-ho doesn't have any sense of inferiority or complex watching all the attorneys around him while working as a law firm employee.

That's why KTO thought Jun-ho is a really nice person and would fall for a girl whom he can admire and respect, and then Young-woo came into his life. She did what he could not, and this newbie attorney comes up with a brilliant idea that no one could. And the wedding dress scene was a spark.

Backstory From KTO's Interviews

In EP3, Jun-ho counts with Young-woo when she goes into Atty Jung's office. That was KTO's improvisation. He thought because Young-woo has a routine or a habit like that, Jun-ho would also be used to that.

Backstory From KTO's Interviews

In EP2, Jun-ho clinks his glass with Young-woo's when she can't do it with the others. That was also a scene made by KTO. He said it's easy to notice things like that when you're interested in someone, so he did it, then the director decided to do a close-up at his hands.

Backstory From KTO's Interviews

KTO's favorite scene is the sunset scene in EP4. He likes how Jun-ho says "I want an attorney like you to be on my side." not "I'll be on your side."

Jun-ho always carrying a backpack = also KTO's idea. Jun-ho is a litigation staff who supports attorneys, so he thought it would be necessary for Jun-ho to carry all the materials.
