Did I Do This Right

a regretter's friend - the forbidden fruit

you became the me who you despised

Orv is suchhh a good fandom for fan analysis and meta and theories like what we do here on tumblr, because it IS that deep and you ARE meant to be reading into it, unlike a lot of other writers of media with big fandoms who seem to actively despise their fans and people analysing their work. I'm talking about bbc sherlock and supernatural here mainly, not to name names. Both of those have themes and motifs that you could read into, and many do, but it feels like you are stubbornly fighting against the writers to enjoy their work, rather than working with them to explore it to it's fullest.

But not orv. Here they even acknowledge the ridiculous nature of what they are trying to do with orv, and the critisisms a skeptic might have.

and here is what Sing Shong responds with through Han Sooyoung, but speaking directly to YOU.

You're MEANT to be reading into it!!! even IF the authors didn't intend something, it doesn't matter, because death of the author!!!!

So when you're looking at orv through the lense of freudian psychoanalysis or whatever you're DOING IT RIGHT! Sing Shong respect and allow this, and that's such a unique thing I've never gotten from another fandom before.

ORV AUTHORS!! WRITE A FANFIC OF KIM CO. SEEING KDJ’S FACE AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!!!!!!!

recommending orv to people who don’t like isekai is so hard bc i have to be like no trust me it gets philosophical and such and they’ll be like in what way. and i have to say well that’s a spoiler. so they’ll be like so when does it happen. and i have to say in the last 50ish chapters. but it’s especially great and stands out in a reread. and they’ll be like “so you want me to read 2.6 million words?” and i have to be like well. yes.

Imagine being so gay that you can notice just the slightest twitch of their eye and know exactly what it means

Like…….

After years of yuri content, two boys kissing is what gets the channel more attention, so personally if I was Vivinos I'd tweet that Ivan and Till are actually two butch lesbians and then turn off my phone

Started reading Omniscient Reader! and WOW I love them all already

the orv dokja moment where he’s like “i see i’m so galaxy brain yjh is acting devastated over my death is to get coins from the constellations and not because he actually cares for me i’m so genius” is the most iconic moment in literature ever to me

dokja thinks he’s being so fucking smart he’s overanalzyed this to the point of looping back to being a fucking dumbass

im pretty sure it has legendary status in the fandom
