It's always tea time

the episode opens with a boy beaten and broken (possibly dead?) lying stomach down on a bed, naked, after having been clearly sexually used (and likely abused) by an uncaring tyrant. one who typically preys on younger men who need some kind of monetary help to find their footing in the big bad world of entertainment. formally known as A Sponsor. the episode opens to deathly actor and the man who caused it walking out.

and then to parallel this with sun and jay. jay who is also an older man that could be sun’s sponsor (that’s how it looks to the outside and what sun was initially after anyway). sun who was also stomach down, naked, on the bed looking sexually satisfied. but this time jay is leaning over him a look of absolute care and (dare i say) love in his eyes as he actively engages in those acts of pleasure with sun.

this juxtaposition between what different versions of power look like under the “same” umbrella.

PAYBACK | episode 8

I am currently helping a friend who is doing research on the Latin American Thai BL community, and I thought I'd try luck here since I know there are quite a few of us.

If you could help us, all you have to do is answer a short survey here: https://forms.gle/vNo5Zu76wU89Btik9

If you're not from Latin America, you can help by reblogging this so we can maybe reach more people.
