#ofts dan

There, I fixed it :D

I had a sketch of Dan and Nick visiting Boston in USA as well but I'm having a hard time drawing for a long time recently, so I just opted for a quick watercolor painting and first sketch out of two x)

My self-indulgent fanarts, and I have a wip of Boston moving out fic. I mean, I still love and fascinated by SandRay a lot, but – man, if I need it, I'm going to take it from the show x) And then come back to sandray and their collars xP

1. BOSTONNICK BABY MY NASTY BABIES BOSTON WAS SO PURE AND SWEET I CRIED SO MUCH EYE CONTACT AND SINCERITY

2. Can I get rid of a couple bodies I’m talking about in order Atom, Dan, Mew, Top, Boeing, and Cheum. AND RAY BOY YOU ARE SO CLOSE TO BEING ON THIS LIST if part 4 didn’t redeem you a bit you’d be buried with the rest of them

3. Sand please let me hug you. Ray was so unintentional evil for this. You can’t do this to someone you ducking love. I’m excusing it because big feels in the mind place but this also had tears coming out of my eyes.

4. I hope ray gets some good fucking help because he needs to apologize to sand and then repair things with Boston because there is a reason why he was fucking silent in the fight and it’s because he knew Boston was about to cry confirming that he really didn’t pressure atom into shit

5. I’m not gonna lie the TopMew parts were unwatchable. Mew is just so infuriating. Get off your high horse and think about ANYONE OTHER THAN YOURSELF GOD DAMN.

6. Daddy Dan making Nick work over time then fucking him on the desk after manipulating him was sick and wrong I’m glad Nick didn’t fall for it. But Nick get HR involved.

Here I’ll start without the work violations. Dan only thinks about sleeping with Nick. He doesn’t care about Nick at all. The way nick got up to dance with him and Dan IMMEDIATELY STARED at nicks lips and went in for a kiss. FUCKING ICKY. No. No. Texting Nick ALL the time. Going to Nicks place of day work without announcement because why would Nicks dad be at the counter if Nick knew that was going to happen. Dan’s little speech about how kisses feel better when there are feels was hella manipulative. Here let me give you a situation.

You apologize for kissing your younger friend because they didn’t seem interested in more kisses or anything else after coming back from the restroom.

Your younger friend says it’s fine didn’t mean anything while looking really numb

Do you?

A. Ask them what’s going on? Maybe try to comfort them.

B. Make a manipulative statement to turn the convo to you and then fuck your younger friend on the table where you both work.

C. Tell your younger friend your feelings

Anyways kids I’ll say it until I’m blue in the face NICK IS AN INTERN YOU DONT WORK THE INTERNS LIKE THAT ITS WRONG IDK HOW DAN IS GETTING AWAY WITH THIS HE IS A SHIT BOSS AND I WOULD SUE THE SHIRT OFF OF DANS BACK. IT IS NOT SEXY FOR SOMEONE WITH POWER OVER YOU TO FUCK YOU ITS CALLED ABUSE OF POWER FOR A REASON.

I hate them.

Oh let me expand on that. Atom is one of those girls who you console about their “shitty” boyfriend then they want to make out because you know… you’ve been such a good friend and they have NEVER been with a girl before. Boston has to see 100% through this but since he is on the rebound from Nick he’s going to give in. I think it’s strange Atom doesn’t go to talk to his sister. They seem to be close in age but he isn’t trusting Cheum just…. Talking to her bestie… fucking her friend… very weird. Can’t trust him. I’d say he was being paid by Mew or Top to fuck with Boston as punishment but Atom’s convo about when did Boston realize he was gay makes me walk that statement back. Too genuine. I also toyed with the idea that Atom had eyes for Boston before but upon watching ep3 again I’m thinking nope. I think Atom will be obsessed with Boston possibly try get get revenge when Boston goes to go save Nick from “Daddy Dan” 🤢

First of Papang is so hot 🥵 I really don’t know why he has to play someone older in every show. In the Jungle he even played an old guy who was an antagonist to Off an up and coming programmer. Irl Off is two years older than him. Papang is the same age as Gun. Idk I think he’s beautiful and shouldn’t be pigeon hold into playing older characters all the time.

Moving on so I need to apologize to Dan. I don’t think he’s a terrible guy. I wasn’t expecting him to be as considerate of Nick as he was in the bar scene. He isn’t overly pushy waits for signals from Nick. Dan is respectful when the kiss is cut off. He doesn’t make a huge deal about Nick’s face drop when he sees Boston either. I still don’t like him texting Nick all the time. Feels very predatory but… we need to take into account Dan was Nick’s senior at university in the same field. It’s entirely possible they were friends Nick seems to be able to make genuine connections with anyone. I can’t really blame Dan for wanting to be with Nick. But Dan has to go even with the friendly stuff it’s still wrong to date a more senior coworker as an intern the power dynamics are insane. (I know this is the plot of boss and babe and GAP but it was wrong there too NOT SEXY)

It is wild to me Dan is making Nick work these crazy hours in what appears to be an open office. NO ONE ELSE SAID SHIT ABOUT WORKING THE INTERN LIKE THIS? How legit is this company? Dan coming to Nick’s work unannounced I’m assuming since Nick’s dad is there to pressure him into working more. Seriously? Dan is the fucking worst I don’t care if you think he’s sweet no excuse to treat your intern this way. Nick isn’t completely blind to this though. He responds with “you’ve allowed me to fulfill my dream” ALSO DONT FUCK SOMEONE WHO HAS BEEN SITTING IN AN OFFICE CHAIR ALL DAY ON A TABLE NICK NEEDS A MASSAGE AND THERAPY.

Okay moving on… let’s… go… unhinged… has dan been stalking Nick? Call back to episode 3 there is a user named Studd_Star that I think is Dan. Maybe he follows nick cause he was his friend or more likely Dan used his own computer sleuthing skills to follow nick and he uses a false name and icon to be anonymous online because that’s what we techie peeps do. The posts are oddly… pointed.

Now we know dan has liked nick for awhile. We also know Dan was Nick’s senior at uni. So 3 to 4 year age gap. Is it possible Dan knows about the Notorious Boston from either stalking Nick or in Nick’s second year he took a photography elective. Dan is in animation so arts adjacent. He could have been in that class as well and saw Boston being his slutty self. Dan is creepily possessive over Nick and it is possible Dan saw Boston got confirmation of who he is here and after that increased nicks work load even more to keep him under his thumb. Powerless.

I also really feel icky about the manipulation and wording in the pre sex scene. It feels very rehearsed. Not saying Papang did a bad job I just think Dan had pre planned how to manipulate Nick into sleeping with him.

He acts like he knows Nick has someone else in mind. Nick is colder than he once was but overall I think he hides his pain very well. So what the fuck is this

Just really makes me feel like maybe the “hunter has become the prey” Im probably wrong. I’ve been wrong about Dan before but… episode 11 is coming people.
