Yes, I realize everyone is (rightly) spazzing over eps 17/18 of Sungkyunkwan Scandal, but I am waiting for subs and, meanwhile, want to post some gorgeous caps of gorgeous scenes of my OTP, Sun Joon/Yoon Hee.
The last scene in ep 15, when Sun Joon, the dignified, calm SJ, runs to Yoon Hee and hugs her. And tells her he can't stay away from 'him' so 'he' has to do it. And she tells him she didn't yet give him her answer. Awwwww. (Side note - I love the costuming here. SJ always wears really nice, patterned clothes because he's quite rich, and YH's are always plain because she's poor).
And then she runs towards him but falls in and he dives to fish her out.
Is it hot here or is it just me? (Because they wear indentical type of clothes, it really emphasizes how tiny she is compared to him - his shoulders are soooo broad when compared to her tiny figure. MMMMMM).
Sun Joon, you are about to be made very happy by your discovery. Yes, those are breasts. Pobably the first you've ever seen (and if Yoon Hee has her way, the last, too).
Yoon Hee comes to, only to discover Sun Joon has found her secret (but weren't you about to tell him anyway? But I suppose it's different when done on your terms). Lucky Poor Sun Joon is still in shock.
Before YH has a chance to arrange her clothes, they hear a group of drunken scholars. Oh no, shall YH be discovered?
Thankfully, SJ has a presence of mind to drag her off to hide. Oh, this is so gorgeous and such a mirror of ep 1 scene only now they are aware of each other on a wholly different level.
And then they are locked in a room together by SJ's servant. Awkward :) SJ is trying to maintain his cool and is all "I am going to read." Bwahahahaha.
So YH decides she will read too and what does she discover but SJ's pr0n courtesy of Yong Ha. LOLOL
Sun Joon is all "not that I am curious, at all, not at all, honest, but scholars need to know the truth, what were you going to tell me at the waterbank?" Oh, darling, you are so transparent. *squishes*
But YH is all "LOL, I see the kinds of books you read, no wonder you are so attentive to your reading" and LOLOLOL at Sun Joon's consternation (and his basically telling YH he got it because of her. LOLOLOL I hope they experiment together and make annotations in the book - purely for research purposes, of course).
And then they wrestle for the book. Mmmmm.
How much do I love the sequence? I love everything about it - that he gave her all the blankets and is sleeping on the floor, that she covers him, that she teases him about his propensity to colds (when he is all "you are a girl and fell into water, you should be the one with the blanket"), that she makes a human burrito, that he laughs like that - like a little kid, that she tells him her real name, that he calls her beautiful in a matter-of-fact way (when he asks her how long she concealed her beautiful self in the garb of a man), that she tells her hard-luck fate in a matter-of-fact way, everything.
I love both that he wants her to quit SKKS (how typical of SJ - it would be weird for him to not mention it at all) and that his reasons aren't "OMG, woman in the sacred halls" (he changed so much) but worry over danger to her. And I love even more that she refuses to quit, telling him he is the one who made her dream big.
Sleeping arrangements of adorableness. And I love that he once again asks her what she meant to tell him at the creek, saying that "if you don't remember, it's OK, but in case it's important" (oh darling!) and she pretends to be asleep.
YH did a deal with SJ, the way she did with Prof. Jung much earlier - if she wins the royal exam first place, she gets to stay. But SJ wins. Only - he tells her she has every right to stay because's she'd cause even more trouble outside. Awwww, darling! I know I keep overusing the word, but he is darling, so too bad. And she gets ready to leave the library and he is "but what were you going to tell me at the creek?" (poor guy) and she is all "must I really say it?" and his response is, of course, otherwise how will he know? And then he starts saying "I am about to die of frust..." and she interrupts and takes initiative. Go, go go go go Yoon Heeeeeeee!!!!
In conclusion, have some pretty Jae Shin.
