QZGS Rec Bingo
I did a blackout bingo for the qzgs october-ish fanwork rec event!
More info on the event here: https://shadaras.dreamwidth.org/181475.html
Full list of recs below!
From before 2020
Title: The Dos and Don'ts
Author: Summer Snow
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/14748434
Jelly’s notes: YeLan alt format fic!! Team happy writes up a guide for yx to flirt with blue river, accidentally sending him the draft version where you can see all the edits on the google doc XD. Summer’s fic is so fun and funny, and the workskin is very cool, though it works better on desktop than on mobile.
Stabbed you with a knife
Title: Even gods can fall
Author: eringeosphere
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/16039565
Jelly’s notes: Magic AU, MCD. erin’s fic is one I’ll never be able to forget because it just makes my heart ache. yx is killed by the people he loves most.
Favorite Tropes
Title: Foundations
Author: BlueberryAsh
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/28358907
Jelly’s notes: which favorite trope does this cover? Soulmates, unconventional soulmates, platonic relationships, angst and feelings… I love everything about this fic so much.
Longer than 10k
Title: Means of Transportation
Author: lynne_monstr
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/32626198/chapters/80932876
Jelly’s notes: Lynne’s de-aged ywz fic! I uh actually haven’t finished reading this yet bc I didn’t want to be too influenced when I was writing my own time-travel fic, but I’m looking forward to reading til the end! The plot, the feelings, the character interactions, and the attention to detail is #writinggoals. I just love Lynne’s writing a lot.
Missing Scene
Title: but man am i bad at math
Author: syncogon
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/27480358
Jelly’s notes: qyf’s rookie challenge from the other side. All of synco’s alternate perspectives are really great and thoughtful, but I like this one especially. Wyc and lx’s reactions at the end made me laugh.
Rare Ship
Title: think of me and burn (and let me hold your hand)
Author: Synoshian
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/22763488
Jelly’s notes: NSFW, yuhuangye poly relationship with gray-ace yx! I haven’t read a lot of nsfw tka fics lately, but this one was memorable because of Lies’s portrayal of gray-asexuality. Sometimes yx is into it and sometimes he’s not and that’s okay. I really love the way yuhuangye interact with each other and respect boundaries. This fic is both sexy and soft.
Non-English/Translated
Title: that delivery bro who comes and goes in the wind and snow ( 那个风里来雪里去的外卖小哥 )
Author: 缩水仙人球, translated by Dayadhvam
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/36500344
Jelly’s notes: wonderfully crack-y allye, a lot of fun. Yx gains the skill of teleportation and becomes… a fast food delivery worker XD. ty dtriad for the translation <3. Plus, love lauchis’s contribution of yx’s sizzling whopper
Prequel Era
Title: paved with good intentions
Author: PotterheadAvengerDemigod & theAbandoned_Grimoire
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/40674066
Jelly’s notes: superpower au, tx-centric precanon, a hint of angst. I really liked the characterization of tx in this, and I’m super curious about how tx’s power works. Maybe the writers will go into it futher in another fic since this seems to be part of a series in the same au.
Female focused
Title: Pretty Magical Girl Gao Yingjie
Author: GeniusCactus
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/40506660/chapters/101481006
Jelly’s notes: GK’s bbfic ft art from wack!! Trans girl gyj finds confidence and solidarity as part of a team of magical girls! First chapter hit me in the feels– gyj’s feelings of being scared and alone are too real. But seeing gyj find herself just fills me with so much joy. I have so many hopes and dreams for her. Also the image of wjx with earrings is something I didn’t know I needed.
Made you laugh
Title: how the tables have turned
Author: alkat
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/25266829/chapters/61254943
Jelly’s notes: social media & crack! kat has such good one-liners, and this one has so many of them! I really love kat’s brand of crackfic
AU
Title: storm chaser
Author: swanfrost
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/20099092
Jelly’s notes: hanye gods au. the way swan writes conflict is so delicious and distinctive. There’s an economy of words that adds to the tension. I really love swan’s writing, definitely #writinggoals.
A work you love
Title: We don't need lights as your smile is as bright as the stars
Author: Missing_Ninja_History
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/35874712
Jelly’s notes: the wangye dance au that gma wrote me for ss. I have no words for how much I love this. The tension, the way they love dance so much, the way wjx thinks and feels about yx… it just makes me smile. This fic deserves so much more love.
Shorter than 1k
Title: Workplace reviews
Author: the_real_lord_grim
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/30041430
Jelly’s notes: grim's alt format in the style of reviews, which is really cool!! Samsara’s made me laugh, EE’s made me sad. It’s a fun and creative fic
Pre-canon
Title: ‘til midnight comes
Author: Shadaras
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/29921295
Jelly’s notes: shade’s wangye <3 i love how soft and full of feels this fic is. The parallels between yx and wjx really come through, and i love how they can just support each other.
Meta
Title: A magician does not know regret
Author: weilongfu
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/21732871
Jelly’s notes: I’ve saved this one since long ago because I liked it so much, a perspective from wjx about qyf’s growth.
Glory focused
Title: Strategem
Author: DancingBloomTKA
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/31039853/chapters/76677230
Jelly’s notes: anyone who is interested in writing battles should study tib's fic. It is not only technically superb but there’s great storytelling too!
A comfort work
Title: A Glorious Butt
Author: Anonymous
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/15691755
Jelly’s notes: hehe. Allye crack
Crossover/Fusion
Title: Light From Dust (来自尘埃的光)
Author: MTKiseki
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/24616501/chapters/59469184
Jelly’s notes: Kise’s hp crossover! hp is chosen as the tka characters’ representative in the triwizard tournament. Unfinished and idk when kise will get back to updating, but she has some really cool and thoughtful worldbuilding ideas about the clash of eastern vs western and how that plays out in the wizarding world.
Fanart
Title: One Last Dance
Author: skysongxd
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/22862440
Jelly’s notes: no I will NOT shut up about Sora’s ballroom dancer smc. Sora’s art is chef’s kiss, smc is gorgeous, and the dress design is asldkfjsdk; This art is so wonderful that I wrote a little oneshot based on it (https://archiveofourown.org/works/28231686). I would love to see more fic based on Sora’s wonderful art!!!
Minor character focused
Title: pocketful of pebbles (swallow, sink to the bottom, swim)
Author: madmaenad
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/32952565/chapters/81783973
Jelly’s notes: one of mae’s staff fics. mae is so good at making you feel for minor characters. I loved this one about wind howl’s healer.
Alternate media
Title: a cosplay show video where the title is clearly mtl’d
Author: Tencent Video
Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcSKARsFWks&list=PL8u-QnV8v_57L7HX62o6L0uORwkLm-tSs&index=15
Jelly’s notes: uhhh I’m not good enough at Chinese to be able to tell what show this from, but it’s a clip from a cosplay performance game show I think. The cosplayers put on such a great production with singing! and dancing!! Also the one-liner: “yx, do you have to sing everytime we battle?”
Canon divergence
Title: any way the wind blows
Author: anaiata
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/33111721
Jelly’s notes: a yx goes to br set-up! I really love the friendship between hst and yx. You can tell they really care about each other!
Got you into a ship
Title: (I’m Not Throwing Away) My Shot
Author: ryukoishida
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/15192653
Jelly’s notes: WangYe!!! An early wangye fic that helped solidify wangye as my favorite ship. I also love the worldbuilding!

make me hurt. a sad kiss.
..i meant to qualify that with a ship but tbh it's more fun to see what inspires you, so do your worst >:)
welp. this sort of ran away from me. i’d been meaning to write something based on this for a long time now, and your prompt gave me the perfect starting place haha. thanks madi!
(homestuck, dave/jade, ~1k, prompt from here. under the cut for length)
There is a vast black space yawning in her chest. It’sgotten to the point that most days she can drown it out with exercise andhomework and her latest pet project, but at night when she’s all alone in a bedthat’s too big for one person in a room where once upon a time that emptyinside her was filled up with stars, with entire galaxies, with whole andperfect universes –
(Loneliness is nothingnew to Jade Harley. When she first arrived on the mainland, everything was soloud and close and immediate, demanding her attention, constantly in her face.The kids in school would eye her and call her names and whisper about her whenthey thought she wasn’t listening and sometimes when they thought she was, allbecause they did not know what to make of her, wild-haired too-clever islandgirl who knew nothing of their ways and did not seem to care)
– she breaks. Her hand will reach across the covers forsomeone who isn’t there, and then she’s kneeling on the floor with her faceburied in an old shirt of his, shivering, weeping quietly, because her bestfriend is gone and she knows he’s never coming back.
(They met in college.He was studying film and she was studying physics and when he heard her playingher bass in the park he put a hundred dollars in her tip jar at the end of herperformance and asked her out to dinner. She found out that his name was DaveStrider and he liked sick beats and shitty comics, and he made her laugh morethan anyone ever had)
After three weeks, she files a missing person report. A partof her goes cold wondering if she’s waited too long and another part tells herthat she’s overreacting, that of course he’ll be back, he’s fine. But he hasn’tpicked up his phone in twenty-two days. It’s an extravagantly craptastic flipphone that’s at least a decade old; he has it because this shit is ironic as hell harley cmon look at it its fuckin glorious.It is never off his person for long. Shewonders if there’s even enough space left on it to store all the messages she’sleft.
(After a year theymove in together. With their combined incomes, they’re able to rent a crampedone-bedroom apartment near downtown. The kitchen is outdated and the furnitureis probably older than they are, but the view is amazing and it’s theirs. Every morning they’d walk together to thesubway station and go to school and every evening Jade would sit on the benchand wait the extra twenty minutes for Dave and together they’d walk home,clasped hands swinging between them)
Dave Strider was always precisely on time. To him, beingearly was uncool and being late was straight up disrespectful. That firstnight, when the subway doors opened and he didn’t come out, she’d called him.It had gone straight to voicemail. Frowning, she’d waited another fifteenminutes for the next train before walking home alone, figuring that maybe he’dhad to stay late studying and his phone had died. Or something. But Jade couldn’tshake the oily disquiet from the back of her mind and it only grew when he didn’tcome back the next night, or the next night, or the next. Disquiet turned toworry turned to a dark and hopeless sort of grief. Every night, she waited forhim, and every night that he didn’t come out of the train took a little moreout of her. She saw his face on the news and wanted to weep. She didn’t knowwhat else to do but drive around the city at night, searching for him, puttingup posters on telephone poles and internet forums. More than anything in theworld, she missed him.
They find the body three months after he disappeared.
Dave had missed his train and decided to walk home instead.His old flip phone had given up at last and so he couldn’t call for help whenthe car appeared out of nowhere and slammed into him, sending him flying.Instead of calling an ambulance, the driver dumped his body in the tall weedsunder the overpass. He died cold and alone and in pain. They still don’t know whodid it. When they told Jade all this she’d sat there numbly. When she arrivedback at the apartment, she’d curled up into a ball and wept.
(In her dreams hecomes home in the late afternoon, when thick golden sunlight pours through thewindows of the apartment and lights the city up so bright it’s almost blinding.She’s studying, or cooking dinner, or tinkering on some fantastic, impossiblemachine and she looks up and he’s walking through the doorway, plonking hisgear down on the table as if he was never gone. The joy she feels at the sightof him is indescribable, brighter than the sunlight pooling on the floor,lighter than the dust motes dancing in the beams. When she flings herself intohis waiting arms it’s like coming home. sup harley, he’ll murmur in her ear, wow hey stop crying im here im home now. His mouth is warm and soft and tastes sortof like apples and mostly like salt and she always wakes with the taste of himbright on her tongue)
She gets her doctorate. She moves to a different city andtakes a different train, but she always waits an extra twenty minutes aftergetting off. It feels wrong not to, she supposes. Dave would think it’s silly,but she gets the feeling that somewhere, somehow, he appreciates it all thesame.

for synco! yelan priest/demon au which. really grew more than expected. synco bls write me the full au someday
Everything was going too smoothly.
Xu Boyuan frowned at the holy oil in his hands, throwing another quick glance at the possessed victim sitting quiescent on the chair. Sure, he was thoroughly tied up with rope, but demons normally did not submit to the inevitable exorcism so quietly. Xu Boyuan had come prepared for rattling, stifled screaming, or the chair toppling over, but the silence unnerved him more.
As if he'd read his mind, the victim glanced up, and the demon inside flashed him a taunting grin. Xu Boyuan worked faster.
Salt in a full circle around the chair; holy oil outside the salt, to be lit in case of escape; nine candles, one for each ring of hell, spaced evenly apart; an equilateral triangle drawn out by three bowls of pure silver, holding holy water; and the victim's favourite and least favourite trinkets, to draw the soul home. Xu Boyuan double- and triple-checked the rituals, then made eye contact with the demon.
"Pater noster, qui es in caelis... oh, fuck, not you again," he said, as red smoke poured gleefully out of the victim. The smoke laughed with tones disturbingly close to fondness and amusement.
"Language, Father," the demon chided, folding himself back into a recognisable shape; behind him, the victim slumped in the chair, sinking into blissful unconsciousness. Xu Boyuan wished he could steal some of that blissful unconsciousness. Lord Grim was smiling at him, full of demonic charm and the promise of a migraine. "And after I went to such effort to find someone I could possess in your parish, too."
"Have you considered not possessing anyone," Xu Boyuan said flatly, already struggling not to punch the demon in his stupid face. Did vows of nonviolence extend to immortal entities? What if he punched the wall? "Why are you here?"
"What a cold welcome. And we have such a good working relationship too!" Lord Grim laughed, ignoring Xu Boyuan gritting his teeth. "I get to see you, and you get commendations from the church, and your parishioners see their tax money making a difference in the village instead of being siphoned off for some rich company's tax cut. Everyone benefits, Father Xu - isn't that good, ecclesiastically?"
Xu Boyuan decided to ignore how seeing him was apparently a good in the demon's book. That deserved a whole new headache, not being tacked on to the one he was currently experiencing. "I am ordained," he said. "I would rather have no commendations and none of your presence than commendations and being stuck with you."
Lord Grim raised an eyebrow. "Of course you do," he said, damningly, and Xu Boyuan suddenly had to struggle to convince himself that yes, he did. "My mistake."
He'd fucked up the ritual beyond all recognition, but the demon was out of the victim, and banishment was the easier part compared to the exorcism. On a normal demon, at least. "I name you Lord Grim," Xu Boyuan said, forcing his scattered thoughts out of his head. "Of chaos, of unnatural change, of madness. I name you Ye Qiu, disgraced, fallen from heaven. And I bid you gone, returned to the pits of hell in which you belong."
"Only because I like you," Lord Grim sighed, and disappeared.
Xu Boyuan closed his eyes, and wished, very fervently, for very strong alcohol.

QZGS Masquerade 2019 Reveals
The guesses are in for Masquerade and now it’s time to reveal everyone! There were 22 guesses (+1 late guess I tossed in for fun), and one author remained unguessed throughout the whole event!
(Please note the collection will be de-anoned by 11/15 at 11:59 pm EST so if you still want to keep your fic on anonymous to the general public who doesn’t know about masquerade, please add it to the general anonymous connection on AO3 in addition to the masquerade collection)
Read below to see results/statistics for all the fics
(later on i realized i forgot to ask for a discord ID/ao3 name on the form but luckily I knew the first place at least)
First off for the guessers:
The one who guessed the most authors correctly: TheDefenestrator [ni(redacted)@gmail.com] with 16/21 correct guesses
Honorable Mention: Dayadhvam [da(redacted)@gmail.com] with 13/21 correct guesses
The average number of correct guesses was: 4.826086957
Median number of correct guesses: 4
Both of them left cool deductions so please check out the raw spreadsheet at the end of this post!
Now for the fic which will be revealed in order of most to least guessed
disclaimer: In my comments, when I said I guessed someone, I’m referring to my active speculation I made as I read a fic before I checked the form submissions. I did not actually make an official guess that was part of the statistics
Number of Correct Guesses: 9/21 (43%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: Lauchis and eloboosting (2 guesses each)
Correct Author: Battle_god_Ye_Xiu
Host Comments: Look i guessed this was you almost immediately because I saw Zheng Xuan tag + the words “soft family” (you like using soft a lot, with ur “uwu soft angst” )
Number of Correct Guesses: 9/22 (41%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: Autumn_Rain, DesertRain, Syncogon (2 guesses each)
Correct Author: desikauwa
Host Comments: Everyone said you have a really distinctive style and I agree, especially the paragraph length + dialogue. I enjoyed the rarer Fang Rui content!
Number of Correct Guesses: 8/22 (36%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: swanfrost (3 guesses)
Correct Author: Shirou_UOHS
Host Comments: Shirou I think your writing is really distinctive and I guessed you right away because you love sibling stuff and YOU LITERALLY DREW FANART OF THIS AND POSTED IT ON THE SERVER. SO SUSPICIOUS. I think you would have been guessed more, but kiri (desertrain) gave you some cover because both of you use “gege” in your fics and you were guessed a lot for the other fic.
(Also for the swan as most incorrectly guessed, RNG was 2/3 of those guesses so not as accurate..)
Number of Correct Guesses: 7/21 (33%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: fayah (4 guesses)
Correct Author: sakuchii
Host Comments: So many people guessed me for this one! Probably because Su Muqiu/Ye Xiu, jokes on you all I wouldn’t be that obvious. I didn’t guess this one to be you off the bat but apparently you had something stylistically distinct because a lot of people did correctly guess!
Number of Correct Guesses: 7/21 (33%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: syncogon (4 guesses)
Correct Author: Dayadhvam
Host Comments: Most people concluded that this fic was written by someone familiar with Chinese because of the references so I’m not surprised Synco was the most guessed. This was one of the fics I knew who wrote it almost immediately as I read it because Journey to the West references!! I remember one of the first posts I saw from you in the server was you explaining LJY’s old username. I laughed that your profile pic on discord this whole event was Innocent Eye Fang Rui, I wonder if that helped anyone guess/suspect?
Also can I say the dialogue for this was great and this was my favorite fic out of the masquerade
Number of Correct Guesses: 6/21 (29%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: Shirou_UOHS (5 guesses)
Correct Author: DesertRain
Host Comments: So many people guessed this off the usage of “gege” which was why Shirou was guessed so often! (Also Shirou under suspicion for Ye Twin fic I’m guessing) For the first 4 guesses you had a 100% guess rate even by RNG and it made me laugh a lot, congrats on not ending up as most guessed despite your early lead!. Also “no beta we die like su muqiu” is the best tag you win just for that
Number of Correct Guesses: 6/21 (29%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: Missing_Ninja_History (4 guesses)
Correct Author: eloboosting
Host Comments: I think this was one of the easier fics to guess because so few people in the fandom write porn. Gma (Missing_Ninja_History) was probably guessed the most because she recently posted TKA nsfw rare pair fic lmao. Also Tread (havingonlydreams) was guessed twice since she wrote nsfw hanzhang before. Zoe ( Battle_god_Ye_Xiu) tried to convince everyone this was possibly her fic but absolutely no one believed this except 1 random rng guess.
I may or may not have been converted to HanZhang by this fic.
Number of Correct Guesses: 5/21 (24%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: senata_isivelia (3 guesses)
Correct Author: qyff
Host Comments: I think your style was somewhat distinct but SO MANY people guessed you for another fic! Not one of the ones I was 100% sure of off the bat, but is it weird that I suspected you just for the triple question marks? haha
Number of Correct Guesses: 5/21 (24%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: Dayadhvam, qyff, and rimenorreason (2 guesses)
Correct Author: Swanfrost
Host Comments: I thought your summary style should have given you away so much more! The block quote + one line zinger is so you. Also I was happy to see so many good gen pieces for masquerade! The fluffy feelings here also vaguely reminded me of your other fic, I guessed you pretty much off the bat when entries were coming in
[From this point onward, we’ve reached the top 50% of well-hidden authors!!]
Number of Correct Guesses: 4/21 (19%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: DesertRain (4 guesses)
Correct Author: Missing_Ninja_History
Host Comments: This was another one of those fics I guessed off the bat because of your copious use of dashes and the “Happy birthday, Qiu.” near the end. That last part basically ruled out most of the more Chinese-knowledgeable writers. I also felt under 2k words would be a breeze for you so the early submission just gave me the strongest gut-feeling this was you. Felt so validated when I checked the forms and was correct haha
This was also a somewhat popular guess for the two authors that didn’t have previous fic history
Number of Correct Guesses: 4/21 (19%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: qyff (10 guesses)
Correct Author: qq_riri
Host Comments: So this was THE most successful fake-out fic out of the bunch, because qyff is so well known for liking MF + QYF. I just read from you that you did this on purpose and it worked so, so well /slow clap
Number of Correct Guesses: 4/21 (19%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: jellysunfish (4 guesses)
Correct Author: DancingBloomTKA
Host Comments: The way you formatted BOLDED poetic lines in between your storytelling was really obvious, even if you tried to hide it with adding the spacing lines. I think Jelly was guessed because they also do this, but you do single lines so I immediately suspected you!! I just didn’t expect you would join the event with IRL and stuff keeping you busy, I’m glad you did!
Also I totally noticed in the server you asked “Who’s the “Time to let my inner demons out” in Dying Flame? Li Xuan?” How shameless, asking about your own fic. I feel this should have made more people suspect you rather than throw them off, but alas I don’t think many people noticed this except me.
Number of Correct Guesses: 3/21 (14%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: swanfrost (3 guesses)
Correct Author: wackernagel
Host Comments: This was a really cool rarepair! Unfortunately it also was one of the things that outed you haha. That and you accidentally kinda said when you finished your fic and your wordcount woes and tried to bluff it off with editting but apparently some people remembered
Number of Correct Guesses: 3/21 (14%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: Missing_Ninja_History (6 guesses)
Correct Author: Lauchis
Host Comments: This was the third most misdirected fic. Maybe because Gma (Missing_Ninja_history) wrote Wu Xuefeng rarepair before? I like how you stole Tread’s headcannon post but Tread (havingonlydreams) was suspected for so many other fic instead that everyone just chose to blame Gma. Also thank you for using the title I was trying to bait people into using!! Unfortunately we only fooled one person with this :(
Number of Correct Guesses: 3/21 (14%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: senata_isivelia and DancingBloomTKA (4 guesses)
Correct Author: rimenorreason
Host Comments: Since you and Senata both had no fic history, a lot of people actually did tend to guess which two fics you two wrote but mixed up the correct order haha. I didn’t guess this one right at all tbh :’D
[From this point onward, we have the top 25% most well hidden authors]
Number of Correct Guesses: 2/21 (10%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: lauchis (4 guesses)
Correct Author: Fayah
Host Comments: This was mine! I did a few things to throw people off - I never wrote Tang Rou before so I picked her as a subject. I just rushed this in 24 hours and hoped that was enough to make my writing not sound so much like myself. I also never use long (parenthesis) lowercase titles so I hoped that it helped throw some people off too. Vaguely I tried to implicate Syncogon because she wrote WangRou before and the lyrics were from the TKA live action which I haven’t watched but she has posted about listening to the OST repeatedly.
I never expected lauchis (who also ships wangrou) to join the event and give me even MORE cover. Thanks lauchis :)
Number of Correct Guesses: 2/21 (10%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: Fayah and Autumn_Rain (3 guesses)
Correct Author: Syncogon
Host Comments: This was really obvious to me and I was surprised it wasn’t guessed more because you’ve actually written fem!YX fic?? And talked about this fic in the server. YOU’VE ALSO LITERALLY USED THE “Alternate Universe - Always a Different Sex“ TAG BEFORE!!!!!! This guess rate is a true miracle, this wins the “most surprised that it wasn’t guessed more.” Maybe because you have 41 fic and people gave up before going to page 3 and seeing your very first fic that was fem!YX
Number of Correct Guesses: 2/21 (10%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: Battle_god_Ye_Xiu, qq_riri, sakuchii (3 guesses)
Correct Author: senata_isivelia
Host Comments: I figured you would do well since you had no other fic. I also helped secretly beta this fic though I don’t know if that actually would have affected people’s guesses. Not surprised that Zoe (Battle_god_Ye_Xiu) got guessed frequently for this because YuHuang. One of the times you got correctly guessed was from RNG but I’m really surprised someone did guess you accurately!
Number of Correct Guesses: 1/21 (4.8%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: fayah (4 guesses)
Correct Author: havingonlydreams
Host Comments: I’m so surprised everyone thought I wrote Liu Hao fic??? I’m honored because I enjoyed the perspective, but still baffled. Tread, I’m really disappointed you weren’t 2nd place because you really deserve it - you had some Zhang Jiale level luck in this event. The one person who guessed you cited RNG as their reason.
Number of Correct Guesses: 1/22 (4.5%)
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: havingonlydreams (8 guesses)
Correct Author: Autumn_Rain
Host Comments: This is probably the strongest accidental masquerade misdirection that happened because I know you had no clue Tread (havingonlydreams, who is strongly associated with Thunderclap) would participate. I did not expect to see/read this pairing but it was a really fun fic!
Only one person (Fenes/The Defenestrator) guessed correctly and saved my ass from having a two-way tie for first. Congrats on the Zhang Jiale award!
Number of Correct Guesses: 0/22
Most Incorrectly Guessed as: Autumn_Rain (5 guesses)
Correct Author: jellysunfish
Host Comments: Our masquerade winner! I think your spacing made people think Autumn_Rain. I definitely couldn’t pin you down either, so congrats! I’ll DM you when I start working on the art :)
[Raw Data Spreadsheet + Deductions if guesser chose to include]

Magnetic card reader & writer principle
Magnetic card reader & writer is composed of a physical casing, which is fixed with a magnetic head, and some are equipped with an electromagnet (called a degaussing device), as well as a codec circuit, an indicator light and the like.
Card reading process: the program issues a card reading signal, the head is energized, the signal is amplified, the signal is recorded when the magnetic card is over, stored, and then re-constructed, and then sent to the computer for confirmation. If the confirmation is met, the signal is passed and output, otherwise the error is re-brushed. .
The card writing process: the program issues a write card signal, and then the amplifier is energized after the amplifier is energized, and the magnetic head is energized. When the magnetic card is brushed, the content is first deleted by the degaussing device, and then the content is written by the magnetic head.

Who Was Ma Rainey’s Real Band?
https://ift.tt/3nIVe9F
Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom is one of those rare films with only one major setting: a Chicago recording studio in 1927. The entire film, and the play it was based on, tells the story of four backing musicians waiting for Madame “Ma” Rainey (Viola Davis) to arrive and cut some sides. According to the label on the 78, Rainey’s 1927 recording of “’Ma’ Rainey’s Black Bottom” and her remake of “Moonshine Blues” of that year was done by “Ma” Rainey and her Georgia Jazz Band.
The Musicians
There are no session notes on the musicians who played on the title song of the Netflix film. Indeed, when Den of Geek sat down with the cast of Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom actor Glynn Turman told us, “We found photographs of her band members, but that was the closest and most detailed information that we had. Not so much as any particular story about any one of the band members, but we did see photographs of the groups, and the sometimes different groups.”
However, Ragtimedorianhenry.com does at least list three of the four musicians who backed Rainey on her ode to bootleg hooch. Albert Wynn played the tuba, which was translated into the upright bass for the film. The bassist in the film is named Slow Drag (Michael Potts), and according to a synopsis for the play it’s based on, Slow Drag got his name from a gig where he slow-danced with women for hours for money. Conversely, low register horn player Wynn fronted many of his own bands: Al Wynn And His Gutbucket Five, Al Wynn’s Gutbucket Seven, Albert Wynn’s Creole Jazz Band, as well as filling a seat with Fletcher Henderson and His Orchestra.
The clarinet player on the record is Artie Starks, a steady reedman who played with outfits like Albert Ammons and His Rhythm Kings, Preston Jackson’s Uptown Band, Richard Jones and His Jazz Wizards, and Starks Hot Five.
Levee (Chadwick Boseman) is the “talented and temperamental trumpet player” of the band, according to the playbill. He is the youngest, and is doing time playing in Rainey’s group until he can put together his own band. The cornet player on the actual recording is Shirley Clay.
Clay started playing when he was a teenager in St. Louis, Missouri, sometime around 1920. His early gigs included touring with John Williams’ Synco Jazzers. By the late 1920s and through the 1940s, he was a sought-out session player, backing artists like Billie Holiday, Cab Calloway, and The Mills Brothers, and swinging with Benny Goodman. He led his own band from 1944 to 1951.
The piano player is listed as unknown. While Rainey also worked with pianists Claude Hopkins and Willie “the Lion” Smith in this period, based on the date of the recording sessions, the pianist was probably Lillian Hardaway Henderson, the wife of cornetist Fletcher Henderson, who became the leader of Rainey’s band. The play synopsis says guitar and trombone player Cutler (Colman Domingo) is the leader of all the other instrumentalists.
The film and play’s piano player is Toledo (Glynn Turman), who doubles as the band philosopher. He loves books and believes style and musicianship are the main contributors to performance. Rainey’s pianist also loved to read, and preferred musicians who could read notation.
Thomas A. Dorsey was also Ma’s manager, and musical arranger. He spotted the talent for Rainey’s touring ensemble, the Wild Cats Jazz Band. The musicians played blues, but also performed written sheet music for contemporary jazz numbers. Dorsey entered Rainey’s world in 1924. He left the touring band in 1926, but is credited in later sessions, including her last in 1928, for the songs “Black Eye Blues,” “Runaway Blues,” and “Sleep Talking Blues” with guitarist Hudson “Tampa Red” Whittaker.
“Georgia Tom” Dorsey is best known as “the father of Gospel music,” writing 3,000 songs, including “Peace in the Valley,” and working with legends like Mahalia Jackson.
Most of “Ma” Rainey’s songs were recorded under the name of “Ma” Rainey and her Georgia Jazz Band, which changed personnel frequently. It included such musicians as trombone players Wynn, Kid Ory, and Charlie Green and Al Wynn; reed players Don Redman, Buster Bailey, Coleman Hawkins, and Johnny Dodds. Rainey was also backed by pianist Jimmy Blythe and blues guitarist Blind Blake, as well as 12-string guitar player Miles Pruitt on the August 1924 eight-bar blues song “Shave ‘Em Dry.” Rainey was backed by trumpet players Tommy Ladnier, Artie Starks, Joe Smith, and Louis Armstrong.
Armstrong played cornet on her songs “Yonder Comes the Blues,” “Jelly Bean Blues,” “Moonshine Blues,” and “Countin’ the Blues.” When Rainey recorded her blues masterpiece “See See Rider Blues” in a New York studio in mid-October 1924, the lineup was Armstrong and Buster Bailey on cornet, Henderson on piano, Charlie Green on trombone,and Charlie Dixon on banjo. Armstrong never knifed anyone over a pair of shoes, but he kills on those songs.
The Studio
The sign outside the studio in Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom says the label is Hot Rhythm Recordings, a play on a nickname for the “rhythm and blues” and jazz music of that era. In truth, however, Rainey recorded with Paramount Records between 1923 and 1928. Formerly known as Black Swan, the company was founded in 1920, and was the second Black-owned record label in history. It was bought out in January 1924, by M. A. Supper, changing it to a white-owned company. But its output throughout both eras was called “race records,” and they made bank.
“Ma” Rainey was immensely popular in the Southern theater circuit. She’d been a popular solo performer before she teamed with her husband William “Pa” Rainey, forming together the “Assassinators of the Blues.” In 1916, Rainey separated from her husband and toured with her own band, Madam Gertrude “Ma” Rainey and Her Georgia Smart Sets. Her tent shows featured a chorus line, a Cotton Blossoms Show, and Donald McGregor’s Carnival Show. Talent scout and recording session supervisor Mayo “Ink” Williams brought her in for her first Paramount recordings in 1923, three years after the first blues singles were recorded by Mamie Smith.
Williams was the first Black producer at a major record label, and the most successful blues producer of his time. He earned his nickname because he was very successful getting African American musicians signed to recording contracts. He’d move on to Decca Records in 1934 where he produced or wrote songs for a wide range of artists and genres, including jump blues, which became rock and roll.
Rainey was 37 years old when she signed with Paramount in December 1923. Rainey wrote 38 of the 92 songs she recorded, and her first session was recorded with Lovie Austin and Her Blue Serenaders. She and Lovie also recorded with Louis Armstrong for the label.
Bigger genre labels like Okeh Records and Columbia Records, where Bessie Smith was signed, had much better studios. This complaint makes it into Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom several times, especially when a perfect performance never makes it through the needle because of a faulty microphone. Sound quality for most of Rainey’s recordings suffered at Paramount. The company went bankrupt in the 1930s.
While recording at Paramount, the studio did arrange a very successful promotional tour. Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom includes scenes from Rainey’s run at the renowned Grand Theater on State Street in Chicago. Rainey was the first country-style blues artist to play the venerable room. This context is something the movie explores at length.

Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom Ending Explained
By Tony Sokol
About that Windy City setting, Turman also tells us, “You got to remember, there had just been a race riot in Chicago [before the movie is set] because a young Black boy had gone swimming in the lake there. And there was a section that he was not supposed to cross as a result of the discrimination. And so they would not let him swim back to shore and he drowned… so we had to forge these characters with a certain amount of steel in their backbone, because these were guys who were going into an area that anything could happen to them at any time.”
Over a period of five years, Rainey performed and recorded with her Georgia Jazz Band, her Tub Jug Washboard Band, and female bandleader and jazz pianist Lovie Austin and the Blues Serenaders.
As the movie points out, Rainey never stopped performing live. “Ma” toured with her Wild Jazz Cats on the Theater Owners Booking Association circuit consistently. The recordings were secondary, after all the sessions. “Ma” Rainey stayed on the road until she retired, and even then, she ran two theaters.
Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom premieres on Netflix now.

Ex-Girlfriend (CEO!Hoseok x Reader)
Pairing: Hoseok x Reader
Genre: Fluff...?
Word Count: 5,931
A/N: This isn’t at all what I had planned when I first started writing it but this is what it is now. Enjoy x
Beep. Beep. Beep. You groan as the sound that rudely interrupts your sleep goes off continuously until you reach over to your bedside table and push what you think is the snooze button on the alarm. Slowly but surely you doze off again in hopes of getting back to dreamland. BEEP. BEEP. BEEP. 5 minutes later the alarm is going off again except it’s louder than before and you roll over in bed hoping to just tune it out but failing miserably. You sit up in bed with your hair resembling a bird’s nest and a face puffy from sleep. You stretch out your limbs with a yawn as you get off the bed. You make your way around the large room to the door leading into a long luxurious hallway. This house was ten times bigger than any home you’ve ever lived in but you were getting used to it. It had been a few months since you started living here anyway.
You make your way down the hall with a grumpy pout on your face. You descend the large set of stairs slowly but an all too familiar smell has you picking up the pace. You run in the direction of the kitchen and stop in the doorway before crossing your arms over your chest. Hoseok is sitting on the kitchen table dressed in his usual attire which consisted of a fitted suit along with the shiniest pair of dress shoes you’ve ever seen.
“Hey, Y/N! Want some lucky charms?” You couldn’t believe him. The CEO of a multibillion dollar company was sitting on the kitchen table eating lucky charms approximately thirty minutes before a meeting with what he called ‘very important business partners’ of his but really they were his best friends. But they were still business partners nonetheless.
“Hoseok, is something burning?
“My desire for you.” He sends a wink your way but you merely push his head to the side as you walk by him, “Don’t be gross!” You head towards the kitchen counter where you have learned to keep a fire extinguisher along with some cleaning supplies in the base cabinets and Hoseok lets out an exasperated sigh, “But I’m your hu-...”
“Dude. The toaster is on fire!” Hoseok’s eyes widen and he turns his head quickly “Wait are you serious?” You quickly extinguish the fire before setting the fire extinguisher down on the ground.
“Yes, I was serious! And you left the alarm on!” Hoseok hops off the table and mocks you behind your back.
“Yeah. Yeah. Whatever. I’m going to work now. “
“I would hardly call sitting in a room full of hot men in suits and listening to them do smart money talking going to work.”
“Did you just call my business partners Yoongi and Namjoon hot?” You nod your head while finishing off his bowl of cereal.
“I want to marry Yoongi. I heard he has a room at his place that’s all bed. That could come in handy...for sleeping purposes.” Hoseok stands there blinking repeatedly before clearing his throat and heading towards the front door.
“Bye Hoseok! Have fun at work. Ask Yoongi if that room is real or a myth!” Hoseok gives you the finger before heading off for the day.
“Well, Mickey, looks like it’s just you and me today.”
Hoseok enters the lobby of the large building his own name is plastered on. This company was his family’s baby, well besides their actual children. Hoseok’s sister didn’t want to take over after their parent’s retirement so the responsibility fell upon Hoseok but it was what he had been hoping for anyway. Hoseok was made for this life. He was so charming and he just sort of wowed everyone he met it was no surprise he had no problems making business deals or connecting with future clients.
He makes his way to the elevator where he usually puts his gameface on. Hoseok is naturally playful and excitable much like a puppy but when he comes in to work he has to show his employees that he means business and if that means putting up a front then so be it. Hoseok rides the elevator up to the top floor where his office looks over most of the city and he stays far away from windows most of the time because holy fuck they’re really high up.
Hoseok steps out of the elevator on the top floor where his secretary is already standing and ready to brief him on his day. She hands him a cup of coffee which Hoseok takes happily like every other morning for the past 6 months she’s been here but he’s not much of a coffee drinker and she hasn’t caught on so he just holds onto it anyway.
“Good Morning, Mr. Jung. You’re 5 minutes late to your 8 o’clock meeting with Mr. Min, and Mr. Kim in room 927. Then you have new client meetings until 12:00 PM. I have arranged for lunch to be brought to you in your office at 12:30 and the rest of your day will consist of reading over contracts, revising them, and signing them after you agree with their terms.”
Hoseok nods his head as his secretary Sohye briefs him on his day. “Thank you for the coffee and the briefing but I’m going to need you to cancel the lunch because I’m meeting with Y/N for lunch today.” Sohye nods her head before making a note in her tablet.
Hoseok walks into room 927 where the other three men are already seated and waiting for him to begin. He closes the door behind himself before taking a seat at the head of the table.
“5 minutes late? What were you even doing?”
“I set the toaster on fire.”
“AGAIN? I’m surprised you and Y/N are even still alive. How’s my wife by the way?” Hoseok glares in Yoongi’s direction, “She’s not your wife.”
“Then how come whenever she calls me she calls me her husband?”
“I don’t kno-...WAIT. SHE CALLS YOU?”
Yoongi nods his head with a smug look on his face, “She like to get updates on our son Holly.”
“Umm...text messaging is a thing you know. The last time she called me she asked me to pick up a package at the post office. It was your birthday gift. The only thing I got for my birthday was a fancy pen.”
“She got me a blanket with a picture of us on it.”
“I’m starting to question who she really mar-...”
“Can we get to actual business here. I have a company I need to run.” Both men turn to look at Namjoon who is sitting in his seat with an unamused look on his face. Oh right. This was a business meeting.
The meeting goes on as normal, they talk about profits, assets, personnel improvement, etc. you know business stuff. At the end of the meeting Hoseok shakes all of their hands as they walk out. He does stop Yoongi though.
“Y/N Wanted to know if you really had a room in your house that’s all bed.” Yoongi shrugs nonchalantly, “Tell her to come over one day to find out.”
“Get out of here you asshole!” Hoseok playfully shoves Yoongi out the door before straightening his suit out. The little scene has drawn some attention from the employees that worked on this floor. They’re all staring in Hoseok’s general direction but he keeps himself composed.
It might sound bad to say that he was used to the attention but he was. There was no doubting that he was a handsome man but seeing him in a suit surely had some kind of affect on all of the women around. He was aware of all the gossip and rumors floating around the office.
People seemed to believe he was in an intimate relationship with his secretary but that’s something straight out of a bad movie. Although he couldn’t deny the fact that she always seemed so eager to get close to him and often made suggestive comments which he shrugged off to avoid embarrassing her. He didn’t feel the need to clear things up though because he was a professional and his employees should know that he would never do something like that. It wasn’t against company policy to date within the workplace but if it were to happen then it was prohibited that the two work in the same department or on the floor.
Hoseok was a reasonable boss. He understood that when romance happened it happened and who was he to get in the way of that but he also had a company to keep up with and he wasn’t going to let some out of work issues get in the way of his business.
Later on in the day when Hoseok is done with possible client meetings it’s officially time for lunch. He’s getting ready to make his way to the elevator when Sohye scurries up to him holding the familiar container from a nearby restaurant he likes, “Mr. Jung where are you off to? I’ve got your lunch right here.” The hopeful smile on her face makes Hoseok feel ten times worse about the words coming out of his mouth next.
“Sohye, I must have forgotten to tell you that I’m going to meet with someone for lunch today…” The way Sohye’s smile drops makes Hoseok regret everything. By the look on her face one would have thought he had just rejected a confession or something.
“Oh okay...I was hoping we could work on the SynCo merge offer together but I suppose you’re busy.” Hoseok is too nice to leave her like this oh my gosh what has he done.
“No. No! I’m sure the other person won’t mind if I miss lunch one time.”
“Are you sure Mr. Jung?”
“Positive.” Bingo. Sohye had gotten what she wanted. Of course Hoseok told her about going off to lunch with you he wasn’t a very forgetful person. Sohye just had this intense hatred for you because it seemed like you were the only person in the way of her and Hoseok getting together. Whenever she thought she was getting closer in came Y/N, best friend of CEO Jung Hoseok. Maybe she had done a little bit of reasearch on you. She hated you. But now she was really going to step up her game. She wanted Hoseok(s money) and she was going to get him(it) no matter what.
Nighttime - At home
Hoseok walks into the house at 11 PM with the most tired look on his face. You’re still awake, watching T.V. in the bedroom with Mickey sleeping beside you. When Hoseok walks in you raise an eyebrow.
“You missed lunch. Did you eat?” He nods his head and collapses onto the edge of the bed.
“Sorry I didn’t visit you at work.”
“Oh no I wasn’t at work. I can never go back there ever again. Not after what they said to me…”
Hoseok perks up immediately and looks over at you, “What the fuck did they say to you? I’ll end them.”
You fiddle with your hands and swallow hard before looking Hoseok dead in the eyes, “They said ‘You’re fired’.” Hoseok throws his arms up in the air with a groan
“Are you serious? You got fired? All you have to do is stand around and look pretty, Y/N.”
“Aww come on Hoseok. Don’t be mad at me. I don’t even need a job. Besides, who wants to pose in front of a camera and look pretty all the time. Not me.” Hoseok shakes his head before moving himself over in between your legs. He leans his body back against yours and crosses his arms.
“So why did you miss lunch?” You stroke and caress his arms gently the way his parents used to do to get him to sleep. It had become a habit of his to seek this kind of comfort after a particularly long day. You didn’t mind though, it was a nice little unwinding ceremony at the end of the day which you also needed.
“Sohye forgot to cancel my usual lunch and when I was leaving she came up to me and I couldn’t say no when she asked me to so I stayed and we worked on a deal together while we ate.” You tense up a little bit at the mention of Sohye. You’ve heard about her plenty of times in the last few months. Apparently she knew nothing about personal space and enjoyed spending her time around Hoseok. Sure, she was his secretary but nobody needs to spend that much time with their boss.
“We can have lunch another day. Don’t worry about it.” Hoseok nods his head slowly as he begins dozing off. This is usually how the two of you fall asleep. It was a little uncomfortable at times but as a good best friend you figured it was the least you could do for Hoseok. You press a small kiss to his temple before turning off the lamp on your bedside table and going to sleep yourself.
1 week later
Hoseok walks into the kitchen a little bit surprised by the fact that you’re awake before him but you can’t really help it you’ve been having some uneasy feelings lately and sleep hasn’t been coming easy to you.
“Hey, you’re up early. What are we having for breakfast?”
“Hoseok, today I’m serving looks.” You do your best pose and wait for his reaction. He just sits at the table scratching the back of his neck awkwardly.
“Y/N, we haven’t had a proper breakfast in 3 days.” You pout before sliding a plate of pancakes, eggs and bacon in front of him. He smiles at you and any sort of anger in your body is suddenly gone because oh my gosh he’s the literal sun.
You almost feel bad for what you’re planning on doing later today while he’s at work. You’ve been a little suspicious of his secretary Sohye. It seemed she was getting bolder and bolder by the day but every time Hoseok mention her advances towards him he never told you what he did about them. Was he even trying to stop her? Were you just being paranoid? You had to get to the bottom of it.
12:30 PM - Same day
You walk towards the front doors of Jung Summit Tech with your friend Sejeong close behind. It’s a huge building in the center of the bustling city. It was a little daunting looking up at this building. It was huge. Hoseok and his parents have built an empire and you were lucky enough to get to witness it. They started with the bare minimum. Selling and repairing computers. Over time that turned into ordering new computer parts. Manufacturing their own parts. They expanded to different types of technology. And now here they were, a multibillion dollar company.
At the entrance you’re greeted with a welcome smile from the doorman and there are people walking past you as they try to get in and out of the building. Most of them are wearing professional work clothes and carrying briefcases as they hurry from one place to another. Despite being around Hoseok so long you never really took the time to come down here and immerse yourself in the world of business. Sejeong pulls you towards the elevator and you ride it all the way to the top. Floor 75. The very top.
“Why do I feel like we’re trespassing or something?” You look over at Sejeong before pulling a sticky note and pen out of your purse. You quickly write something down and hand it to her. “We’re not trespassing. See. We have a permit”
Sejeong looks at the paper and raises an eyebrow, “This is just a sticky note that says ‘I can do what I want’ on it.” You shrug before exiting the elevator on the top floor. There’s a security guard standing at the front desk and he asks for an I.D. and your reason for being here. You hand the identification over and tell him you’re here to see Hoseok. He calls it into Hoseok’s secretary to see if Hoseok is free. You glance over at Sejeong with a confused look on your face. Was Hoseok really this important and busy even at lunch time? You rock back and forth on your heels as Hoseok’s secretary gets back to the security guard telling him that he’ll be free in five minutes and to hold you outside for the time being.
In Hoseok’s office - Same time
Hoseok is a bit startled when Sohye comes running into his office without knocking. Usually she’s a little more cautious than this.
“Sohye, can I help you with something?” He puts his fork down and stands up to walk to the other side of his desk. Suddenly Sohye begins bawling and mumbling words that Hoseok can’t quite understand in her state. Hoseok approaches her slowly but Sohye abruptly wraps her arms around him and buries her face in his chest as she continues crying. Hoseok is too nice to tell her that he’s a little uncomfortable with the situation.
“Umm...What’s wrong?” She composes herself long enough to get out some coherent words.
“M-my grandmother passed a-away…” Hoseok’s struck with guilt because he was really going to push her away but now that he knows why she’s suddenly acting like this he feels like a jerk for even thinking about doing that. “I’m so sorry for your loss. You can go home for the day. Take as long as you need. It’s really no problem.” Sohye pulls away a little bit and begins wiping away the tears streaming down her face. She looks up at Hoseok and this time he really does feel a bit uncomfortable because her face is so close to his and it almost looks as if she’s coming closer.
From outside the door the security guard can be heard saying, “Right through this door.” and as soon as the door opens Sohye plants her lips right onto Hoseok’s. You’re now standing in the doorway with a shocked expression on your face as Hoseok really does pushe her away this time. What you really want to do is run out of here crying but what you actually do is cover your eyes slightly, “I’m sorry I didn’t mean to interrupt. I’ll see you later Hoseok. Sorry again.” You swallow hard and blink back a few tears before heading back towards the elevators as fast as you can.
Sohye did it. She was content with the outcome of her actions. But once again the tears fall from her eyes as she begins spewing out apologies. “Mr. Jung! I’m so sorry. I was just so caught up in my emotions. This has really hit me hard. That was very unprofessional of me and I can guarantee it won’t happen again. If you fire me now I’ll have nowhere to go. My grandmother was all I had…” Hoseok clears his throat before speaking to Sohye firmly, “Go home, Sohye. When you’re ready to come back you’ll be on a three month probation. Excuse me, I have something to deal with.”
Hoseok hurries out of the room in hopes of catching up to you but by the time he gets to the elevators the doors are already closing and there’s no point in trying to take 75 flights of stairs down. He’d never make it in time.
“Fuck what am I gonna do now…” Hoseok rakes a hand through his hair before balling his hands into fists. He pulls his phone out of his pocket and punches in a number before holding the phone to his ear.
“Seokjin. It’s Hoseok. I need you to push forward everything. The end of the month isn’t a good time anymore. I need it all ready by the end of the week.”
“Hoseok. It’s Tuesday. How am I supposed to get everything done by Sunday?”
“I don’t care how you do it or how much it costs me. I need it done on Sunday. Can you do that for me?”
“You owe me big time.”
“How does a new house in Cancun sound?”
“I was thinking something along the lines of a new car but I’m not opposed to the new house.”
“New car it is. Also, Seokjin I have another guest to add to the list.”
“We’re at capacity Hoseok!”
“Do you really think all of the people on the list are going to show up to this thing?”
“This is the biggest event of the year. Everyone wants to know why THE Jung Hoseok has decided to gather the press and business elites in one place.”
“Whatever. Just send an invitation will you?”
“To who?”
“Park Sohye”
When you arrived home you immediately began shoving your belongings into suitcases and bags while Sejeong tried to communicate with you.
“Aren’t you being a bit too hasty about this? He’s your best friend and…”
“I’m not being hasty. You don’t know anything. If you’re not going to help me then leave.”
Sejeong is taken back by your tone of voice. You rarely ever raise your voice and when you do it’s usually because you fell of rainbow road in Mario Kart but that’s besides the point right now.
“Can you drive me to a hotel completely across the city? I don’t want to risk running into him.” Sejeong reluctantly nods her head and helps you carry your things out. Forty minutes later you’re settled into a large empty feeling hotel room. But it didn’t feel anywhere near as empty as your heart did.
Saturday - Midday
You pick up the hotel room phone after the third ring but you’re unsure why the staff would need to contact you. You’ve been a model hotel room guest. Not noisy. Not annoying. You had kept to yourself the past few days.
“Ms. L/N, we’re calling to inform you that something has been dropped off for you at the front desk.”
“Who is it from?”
“There’s no name on the card, miss.” Hoseok, you thought.
“I’ll be down in a few minutes, thank you.”
“No need to come down here. We’ll send them up with room service.” With that the line goes dead and you set the phone down with a sigh. Of course he had managed to find out where you were staying. Curse Sejeong for exposing your location.
Sure enough a few minutes later there’s a knock on the door but by the time you open up whoever dropped it off was gone. You look down on the ground and there sits a box sporting the Elie Saab logo, a bouquet of your favorite flowers and a card. You roll your eyes as you bring everything inside. As much as you hated to admit it you did miss being around Hoseok but you were thankful that he had decided to give you your space.
You set the bouquet of flowers down on the desk and the box on the bed as you open the card:
‘Don’t let it end this way.
Meet me tomorrow at the Kim
SJ Ballrooom. 7 P.M.
All will be revealed then.
- Love, JHS’
Sunday
Come Sunday evening at 6 P.M. you’re sitting on the edge of the hotel room bed in a robe. Looking at the bouquet of flowers sitting on the desk you have yet to decide whether you want to show up to whatever Hoseok has set up. You get up and walk over to the bouquet but upon closer inspection you notice that one of them looks a little bit off. It doesn’t look real at all. You stroke the stem and leaves and come to the realization that it’s fake. You pull it out of the vase and shake your head with a smile on your face. “Jung Hoseok, you hopeless romantic.”
Kim SJ Ballroom 7 P.M.
“Hoseok. If you don’t stop pacing I’m going to lock you in a storage room.” Hoseok looks over at Yoongi with a worried expression on his face.
“What if she doesn’t show up? I should have gone after her that day. I’m such an idiot Yoongi.”
“That’s one thing we can agree on. I can’t even believe you’ve managed to hide this for so long. You’re the king of simultaneously always being in the news but also not having everything you do be exposed.”
“We had to keep it a secret but now that everything is done and sorted I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. It’s been a tough year.”
“Wait, the whole process is done?” Hoseok nods his head and grabs an envelope from the inside pocket of his suit jacket. Yoongi grabs it from him and begins reading through it.
“Congratulations, Hoseok! Y/N is going to be so happy to hear this.” Yoongi pats Hoseok’s back before looking out the curtain at the guests mingling in the ballroom.
“If she even shows up.”
“She’s going to show up Hoseok. When has she ever let you down?”
“But this time I let her down.”
“Listen. Things are going to work themselves out. It’s 7 P.M. Get out there and do what you do best. I’m sure the press are dying to get some shots of you. I’ll keep an eye on the door for Y/N and I’ll bring her over to you. Promise.”
Hoseok lets out a deep breath before nodding his head, “Thanks Yoongi.” He gives him a genuine smile before grabbing the microphone off the table and stepping out from behind the curtain.
“Greetings, everyone. I’d like to thank you all for coming out to this event on such short notice. I’d especially like to thank the press for agreeing to postpone publishing anything about this event until tomorrow morning. I owe my success to your cooperation.” When you walk into the room nobody notices because they’re all focused on Hoseok who’s standing on the stage giving a short speech. You’re wearing a stunning Elie Saab dress from the Fall 2017 Couture Collection. Look 39 to be exact. You remember telling Hoseok how you had fallen in love with the dress as soon as you laid eyes on it and here you were dressed in it.
“For now please help yourselves to the food and drinks. Hopefully my next announcement will make this all worthwhile. Thank you once again.” Hoseok steps behind the curtain again and his palms are so sweaty that the microphone slips right out of them and onto the floor. At least it was off so it didn’t make that godawful shrieking sound.
You’re startled when you feel someone grab onto your arm. When you turn your head you find Yoongi smiling at you.
“I knew my wife wouldn’t leave me dateless.” You smile back at him before locking your arms together as he begins leading you away. “Do you know what all of this is about Yoongi?”
He nods his head but doesn’t say a word.
“Where are you taking me?” Yoongi leads you behind the curtain where Hoseok is once again pacing about nervously.
“You two need to talk.” Hoseok looks up from the ground and his breath catches in his throat. God, you were beautiful. He was so lucky to have you in his life. The best friend a guy could ask for. You stood by him during the hard times and here you were in his time of success. He knew the dress would look stunning on you.
You were kind of in a daze. Hoseok was looking handsome as ever. Sure, he was wearing what he usually wore. A suit and dress shoes. But somehow this time it was different. Wait, no. Snap out of it you’re supposed to be mad at him! He broke your heart. You don’t break someone’s heart. They only have one of those. Break their bones! They have 206 of those. You’re pulled out of your thoughts by the sound of Yoongi shutting the door as he exits leaving the two of you alone.
Your senses are suddenly invaded by none other than Hoseok. The image of a perfect gentleman standing in front of you.The familiar scent of his cologne. The warmth radiating off his body. The sound of his apologies filling your ears. The taste of mint on his lips as he cups your face in his hands and plants his lips on yours. The kiss is short and sweet, but Hoseok pulls away leaving you craving for more.
“What you saw, in my office, it wasn’t what it looked like. She came onto me. I know it looked bad but I promise i would never do that to you. Not after what we’ve been through. “
You look into his eyes and the sincerity in them makes you feel guilty. Of course it wasn’t what it looked like. You had just been so on edge lately with everything going on in your personal life and you had jumped to conclusions and assumed the worst.
“I believe you Hoseok. I trust you. But what is all of this about?”
“Y/N. Today is the day. We’ll be set free. I’m going to tell the whole world what I’ve been wanting to shout from the top of the highest point in the world since last year.”
You tilt your head a little bit in confusion before he grabs the microphone once again and presses a kiss to your forehead.
“Come out when I ask you to okay?” You nod your head slowly still not exactly sure what he’s talking about. Hoseok walks out onto the stage once again with a blinding grin on his face.
“I think I’ve kept you all waiting long enough. The reason I’ve gathered you all here today might change the way the world views me but I’ve come to terms with it. I’ve come to realize that there’s nothing more important than the people you love. So I stand before you today to declare that I, Jung Hoseok, love Y-...”
Hoseok is interrupted by the annoying voice of the woman that caused all of this. Park Sohye.
“Hoseokie!! Oh my goodness. I knew it. I knew you loved me.” She runs up the steps on the side of the stage and makes her way over to Hoseok. The whole crowd is dead silent because the look on Hoseok’s face suggests that she’s got it completely wrong. Sohye takes the microphone from Hoseok’s hands and addresses the crowd.
“Hoseok and I fell in love a few months ago. It was your typical forbidden office romance. He tried to play it off but I knew he wanted me from the start.” Hoseok snatches the microphone out of Sohye’s hands and the crowd gasps at the sudden action.
“That’s very far from the truth actually. I-...” You wanted to set things straight. This Park Sohye
was a nuisance in your life and you were quite tired of it. When you walk out from behind the curtain the crowd gasps yet again because wow what a twist of events. You’re completely calm as you stand beside Hoseok. He bites the inside of his cheek momentarily before smiling.
“I’d like to introduce everyone to my best friend. Also my ex-girlfriend. Y/N.” You smack his arm lightly with a smile on your face.
“Don’t introduce me like that.” You hold out your hand to Sohye
“My name is Jung Y/N. I’m his wife.” Cue another crowd gasp. Sohye takes a step back. Her face is slowly turning red as she processes what has just happened. She’s so embarrassed as the press snap photos of the moment which will probably end up on news articles tomorrow morning but you didn’t really care what happened to her.
Hoseok clears his throat into the microphone to get everyone’s attention once again.
“I’m sure you all have many questions and both Y/N and I are open to answering them at this point in time.” Hoseok reaches over and intertwines his hands with yours as reporters begin shouting out questions.
“How long have you been married?”
“At the end of the month it’ll officially be a year. We were going to announce it then but a few things came up and we decided to push up the date.” Hoseok points at another reporter.
“How did you manage to hide it so long?”
“We didn’t have a wedding ceremony which I’m a bit disappointed about because I want nothing more than to see my beautiful bride walk down the aisle but that’s going to change soon. After thinking about it for a long time we went to a courthouse and we were officially married there for certain reasons. It was just us and our parents.”
Hoseok raises an eyebrow when he sees Yoongi raising his hand but he points at him nonetheless.
“Why did you keep your marriage a secret? What was the point of all this?” Yoongi gives Hoseok a thumbs up and you look up at Hoseok clearly worried about how he was going to respond.
“ Ah. Yes. Our reasoning might not be suitable to all of you but…” Hoseok reaches into the pocket inside his suit jacket and pulls out the envelope from earlier. “When we were dating, Y/N and I agreed that we would like to have children as soon as possible. The sooner the better.” Hoseok chuckles a bit in embarrassment before continuing, “We had always talked about adopting children and a few days before we were set to get married we were told by an adoption agency that they had a mother that was looking for a family for her unborn child. Y/N and I felt like we were ready for this step and we took a chance. For the mother’s privacy and our own we decided to keep things under wraps. I’ve been in the public eye my whole life so I know how hard it can be to grow up that way. So we thought it would be best to avoid drawing any unwanted attention to the situation just in case things didn’t work out. It’s been a tough year long journey for us but I’m happy to be able to announce that Y/N and I are now the proud parents of a baby girl.”
Your eyes go wide as Hoseok makes the announcement that not even you were expecting.
“Wait, are you serious?” Hoseok nods his head.
“She’s ours?” The tears begin building in your eyes as you think back to everything you’ve been through to get to this point. All the times Hoseok has been dubbed the most sought after bachelor as you sat at home staring at the gorgeous ring you couldn’t even wear out. All the gossip you had to hear from other women about the things they would do to your husband. It was worth it now.
“All ours.” The tears begin falling as you bury your face in Hoseok’s chest not even worried about ruining it. You had your husband. You had your daughter. You didn’t have to hide your relationship anymore. What more could you ask for?
“Y/N.”
“Yeah?”
“Will you marry me? Can we have an actual ceremony?”
“I would be honored to become your ex-girlfriend. Again.”
A/N: This was probably really trash but here it is!!!! I’m a sucker for Hoseok and I just had to write this. Thank you for reading it!! Also, sorry for all the time skips, I’m really lazy. Yikes.

[HH] breathe again in the world anew
“Why?”
Xiao’s arms hang loosely at his sides as he walks forward, for it is clear that the being before him poses a threat no longer.
Not-Kalo slumps against the pillar, weary and resigned as he tracks Xiao’s approach with his violet eyes. From up close, Xiao can finally see just how poor of a shape he is in. His flames flicker low. His visor is split in two. His metallic skin has shriveled. And there are the dimensional rifts that tear at his body, jagged gashes leaking faint purple light. Xiao’s own scars twinge in recognition—the price paid for leaping universes.
Why. Short, to the point. The answer is just as simple:
“I had to save Adeli.”
This is all he says, but Xiao can imagine the rest. At last, it makes sense. The old sage had said, collecting the energy from all of your parallel selves would grant you unfathomable power. The power to twist a timeline. Save a world. In every universe, Adeli is destroyed—but if there was the barest sliver of a chance—
“Even if it meant killing your own parallel selves?” says Xiao quietly.
“You said it yourself, we are but versions of the same person. The same likes, the same character, the same dream,” not-Kalo says hoarsely. His breaths come in shallow gasps. “I… am the zhanshen of Adeli.”
His violet energy has dimmed to almost nothing. Xiao has seen this before. He knows what this means for an Adelian.
Not-Kalo is still looking up at him, almost as though searching for something. Acknowledgment, recognition. The only reward he can have, now, for the hell he has undergone. “It is an honor to serve Planet Adeli,” he whispers. “And I would die a thousand times over to save her.”
Xiao swallows. Finally finding his voice, he replies, “You cannot make that decision for every version of yourself.”
“Then it seems even you don’t understand,” is the only answer. With the last of his strength, Kalo tilts his head to the side, letting fall upon his eyes the view of a planet that has not yet met her fated tragedy.
“Adeli,” he murmurs, as the flames fade from his body, “how beautiful.”
//
“Kalo,” Xiao says, “how far would you go, for the chance to save Adeli?”
“Oh? What brought this up?” His Kalo laughs softly, before turning to look out upon the twinkling lights of Xing sprawled before them. “Adeli is gone,” he says, tone still light, blue eyes wistful. “It doesn’t matter anymore, does it?”
It’s not an answer. Xiao doesn’t ask further.
#happy heroes#synco talks#synco writes#“you're a chaoren shouldn't you understand?” but it's not the same#kalo is alone shouldering the burden of a planet#will put on ao3 later#inferiority complex kalo was boring at best I’m sorry#I’m way more interested in whatever the hell was up with purple kalo#(prob bc he got less screentime anyway lol)

The Truth And The Secret
This place so laden with the perfumes of old ages
Which ghosts sometimes commandeer to manifest
Scent-shapes; flocking, mocking, always talking.
I hear them even in my sleep.
They clamor ‘round as about a table
To discuss this their latest feat:
To bring him low, the Worded One,
To render bitter what once was sweet,
This craft of his to work storied cities
Of worded stories which so softens
Them in the deeps.
“He lies, you know!”
“Or he tells but the half!”
“Yes, but which half? His half, or the truth?”
“None of it!”
And so it goes about the table, these
Synco-syllabic sycophants to their own
Simmering grudges, for from them I took the prize
Of all conquerors: that which of the truth
I most admired. And of the last left
I discarded, derided,
And by the act to perfumed scent-shapes
Gave real Shape. Now they clamor, haunt, and rile,
As envenomed snakes from snouts of beasts,
Which from bilious lips gave pilloried testimony,
Demanding truth where I had forged
Whimsy and the pallid beauty of word-sense
Out of non-sense. Demons, these, and devils proud,
Grown tall from earth to towered cloud,
Demanding their due as is their due,
But they don’t understand...
What I have written I can’t now make untrue.
I’ve lost the thread back to those times
When from word and from rhyme
I crafted chaos to lines to leave
Bloodletting behind. This was my concession, you see--
To write or to cease--
Though true it was only a concession for me;
I gave what I could of bloodied prose a more magnificent face,
Substituted fact for fancy with a more pleasing face.
Of blood-hurt I made moonblossoms
And of rape I merely aped as wise old jesters do
To enamor the truth of a more becoming shape.
Of abandonment I spoken only of dark wings at dusk,
Beating ‘cross waters and casting through dust.
And the shame of it is, that now is the Shape.
I remember not the truth, not as they’d have it;
I remember only these baubles I spun ‘cross my webbing
And that, I’m afraid, is the dearest of all:
An untruth-y truth all of my own
That will still glister and glisten
When no new dawn will be flown.
So call me no more, fickle scent on the air,
Nor haunt my sleep; the truth and the secret
Are both mine to keep. And while I commend that it might
Not be totally fair, the face I have crafted is more fairest than theirs.
Besides, my memory-ghosts, my scent-shadows,
My creepers-at-midnight and singers-in-moonlight,
Your threats are as incense
For you’re not really there.
Sleep.
Sleep now.
Sleep.

The Hosta A Cover Loving Perennial.
WASHINGTON (News agency) - A two-year-old young boy which built a severe reaction to his father's smallpox shot has recouped however http://superhealthy-bymarek.info disease investigatives found transmittable infection all around his property, the Centers for Ailment Control as well as Prevention disclosed on Thursday. Even though the lady decides to permit her the mother have a much larger pie, are actually certainly not disturbed while you may have cleared up the wedding as well as whatever. Such a beautiful tribute to an excellent female that has obtained exactly what numerous will certainly never ever experience, connecting with the grow older of 101 is actually a rare landmark and also a cherished one.
Fifteen-month-old Shivani was tugging at a plastic tape her mommy had coiled her leg and linked to a stone at the structure internet site. The Different colors of the Dress ought to be actually an across the board decision between the bride-to-be and the mother from the groom and the mommy from the bride-to-be.
A mother is actually a female which is committed to her kids & finds their ideal well being. There is actually a technique to appear Mother earth straight in the eyes to make sure that she sustains your choice to appear the most ideal you can. The affront was felt, and also from that time on, Mom Marie-Therese was actually openly cynical and disdainful from the entrant.
Although she is actually having medication for her high blood pressure, the mom begins to get hassles, experience queasiness, vomiting and tarnished sight, that steadily become more frequent later on in her pregnancy. My mother asked me to explore her as well as give her a priesthood blessing or even laying on of palms, I was actually as well occupied last Sunday so I failed to make this.
The boy's papa, Carlo Brewer, talked to condition officials and nearby authorities over the well-being of his kid, who at the time was actually coping with his mommy as well as her sweetheart. Nurturing our children's mommy is crucial, undoubtedly, but I don't think this is actually one of the most crucial factor we may do for all of them.
I read through the Anne Campbell claims estimated by President Hinckley and also they just definitely reverberated with me. This is actually effortless to emphasize all the many things you are actually missing out on through being actually a mom (specifically in the youthful period without a bunch of funds). however you truly must keep in mind the incredible beneficial component of this as well as those attractive little ones that are whatever to you.
When Macron was a younger teen, his daddy said to Brigitte Trogneux, a wedded mother from three, to stay away from his child till he arrived at 18 years of age, according to the book. The blooms could have a vase she may always keep, or even that could all of be actually organized in a pleasant container.
That is truly effortless to have such mom little girl matching clothing if you are actually eager on wearing denims and white Tees. Yes, that is actually positively exactly what your mommy requires after devoting all that dealing with every person in the household. Because quick weekend journeys to your home town could be nerve-racking, that may be truly wonderful to plan a longer journey all together.
This is emotional as I regularly keep in mind exactly how my mom had excellent care from our vegetations especially our orchids. Every one of these items are actually things that you perhaps have in your residence (excluding fish tank water) and all you need is actually a nice spot in a quiet part of your yard.
You can easily developed an excellent and also lashing pillow for her in which you may write loving quotes, information for her for this beautiful time and also can present her your sensations as well as affection and her place in your lifestyle which is actually one of the most essential off everything in this world.
He was named after the love from your lifestyle, my dad and as his mom had actually handled our surname many years earlier, we right now possess another Synco Schram de Jong in the household. In the film Well known, the gotten away Nazi Alexander Sebastian is concealing in South The U.S.A. with his mama and various other left Nazis.

Parenthood.
Nothing in life seems to prepare us for writing phrases of acknowledgement to those that have only lost a relatived. The intuition that steers the mother bird should certainly steer individual adolescent mommies along with a much more reasonable and also ethical significance. Your mama in law will certainly respect you for obtaining her a gift in the first place, therefore offering her a present that is excessively costly is actually unwanted and also can easily frequently do more harm compared to this deserves.
I remember my mother telling me some horrific tales from exactly how miserable, uncomfortable as well as sick Nana was, also relevant that she was 'delivered out' for 6 months. The guy acquired nowehere, so he lost hope, sent back house and also certainly never possessed a connection with my daughter's mama as well as she never understood him.
A month after my mama's death, I met a counselor whose mama http://beautyblog4you.info/tant-en-mode-me-drone720x-avis-suivre/ was gravely ill and perished right after our team became close friends. At some point the mama appears to pat the joey to supply reassurance and also relaxes her head on its own head in a comforting way.
Jesus performs certainly not mostly or exclusively imply that the Convert must look after his mom once he is actually gone, though he carries out possess her well-being in mind. The means I found it, Megan has actually been actually suffering all her lifestyle from Missing Mama Disorder".
Le comédien Neil Patrick Harris défend la fin controversée de los angeles série télévisée How I Met Your Mother. Rest assured that your mommy will definitely fall for the piece from precious jewelry that you receive her, and also not only for the innate market value of the thing.
Exactly how anybody could kill someone for any kind of reason is past me, but to eliminate your own mother just because she was vacating is extremely difficult to get my scalp around. Sadly I no longer have mine yet I consider my children; they are both moms now and also are actually doing an excellent task so I could find a few of my mother in them.
His mother had actually educated him long ago to do as he is actually told; except she had definitely indicated what she told him, but John Wayne had took it to indicate he was actually to perform any sort of girl's bidding. Consequently, a mom must comprehend her kid's attitude and develop an environment which they do not locate distressing nor dull.
He was actually called after the love of your lifestyle, my father and as his mama had tackled our surname years ago, our team right now have one more Synco Schram de Jong in the loved ones. A true mama simply understands that her personal life is actually no longer hers but someone else's.
As the mother goes out to work, the papa is no more the main or occasionally also major family members bread-winner. I refuse to compromise my very own worths, where my mom has blatantly betrayed my count on.

How to come up with a name for your startup?Coming up with a business or startup name is a creative process that is interrupted or at least somewhat complicated with technicality and legality.Some potential names are already taken and used, or their website url (.com, or .io) is taken, they are illegal names, or they might mean something else in another language that could be offensive.There are different approaches to finding, liking and settling with one name, here is my approach and how I did it. Before I get into the details I think it is a good idea to know some things about our startup, what it does and what are some of its features. Without knowing these, it would be harder to grasp what I am writing about. Our app is a group based social photo sharing app.With our app you can capture raw, random moments of you and your friends simultaneously shared in a fun photo collage.It has a couple of fun aspects to it: - when a user starts this processs and wants to capture a shared moment, first she takes a picture and adds a caption what she is doing at that moment and then when she sends it she basically “gives” 5 minutes to her friends to respond with theor own photo and caption. - the receivers, the other group members who “get” the 5 minutes to respond might get this request at random times throughout the day when when the sender wants to know what everybody’s up to at that moment.When I wanted to find a good name for our startup, first I wrote down on a piece of paper all the characteristics, features, and key words of our app: photo, pics, pitcures, picture sharing, photo sharing, collage, photo collage, camera, app, mobile app, mobile application, network, time, timer, 5 minutes, five, go, social network, friends, family, fun, real time, genuine, raw, random, right now, hurry, time running out, no BS, simultaneous, at the same time, response, syncronized, in sync, 4:59, etc.After I had these, I also I looked for synonyms for some of these words above and I even checked if there is a cool equivalent of any of these words in another language. For that I used google translate. For simple word translations it is great, for sentences not so much.As I was playing with these words on this paper, I also envisioned the logo and what it could and should include and combine.The process was about two days, but not in a direct continuous way like I was sitting down and not willing to stand up until it was done.I just kept playing with these words in my head and see how they each sounded.At the end, there were a couple of good candidates but I liked this one the most: SyncoThis is basically a combination word of the number 5 in Spanish, cinco and the word sync or syncronize; both of which are crucial features of the app, because users are given 5 minutes to respond to a request and all group members respond almost simultaneously, so in sync with one another. So I combined Sync + Cinco and I got Synco.Now the technical part: both synco and its url .com form was taken and used by another company so we added the word Go in front of synco which again has a meaning in the app. When you click and send a synco, you click a button called Go.So this is how I came up with the name for our app called: GoSynco Now onto the logo:I wanted to have some of the app’s characteristics and/or its features included and illustrated in the logo. I wanted to have some of these words below somehow incorporated in the logo: a timer, a camera, 5 minutes. If you look at our logo, you can probably figure out that it is a camera. At the same time it is also a horizontal number 5. The lens is also representing a timer with a hand suggesting there is a time element of the app. The little balls are hinting the aspect of time running out. Basically that was the process and it took about two days to figure it all out.Thanks for reading, and I hope it helps you to come up with a cool name and logo for your product, brand or company. You can find our logo and more ino about our app by clicking on this link.

I WONT WRITE LOVE POEMS NO MORE
You were the title to the last love poem
I wrote
My mind wasnt thinking straight
So i had to curve every beautiful word
Just for my beautiful one
You always left me speechless
So i had no choice but to voice my thoughts
On paper
You kept pumping blood into my fingers
Giving life to my right hand
So that it could write for my mrs. right
You were my defination of a perfect night
‘Cause you shone through my darkness like stars
Im not 6foot like any of your exes
But in excess
i showed you how deeper than 6foot
I could go just with the power of ink
Neither am i so blessed with looks
But i could string every word gained from books
And give you that nerdy love
For sure you were the only one i wanted to have
I did evolve from just “wanting a girl”
To “wanting a girl like you”
You were stuck on my mind like glue
I know that line is from some song
But just read along
I know it’s already been used before
But i just had to add it to make it synco
I know you get my point
But before i conclude
I wont go into details of how my heart you broke
About how messed up it was i dont want to talk
If you saw my last piece you feel its torque
You had me twisted and broken at the same time
So that part ill skip and slip to the main message
Of this poem
Why i wont write love poems no more
So yes you are the reason
And Let the ink on this part sink in
And there’s no denial ill it let it flow to your head like the Nile
And before from my contact list your number i delete
I want to repeat
Yes you are the reason
I wont write love poems no more

GAMERZ 2016 – Our daily computer-programmed reality
For a full intro to the festival, check out my previous story: GAMERZ: Digital tech ‘degenerated’ by craft and kludge.

This year, a section of the exhibition of the GAMERZ festival was dedicated to the omnipresence of algorithms into our life. It was curated by artist, writer and otherwise brilliant cultural agitator Ewen Chardronnet.
By anchoring his curatorial text in the year 1972, Chardronnet reminds us that back then, the future of technology was not paved with malignant machines and other existential risks. Instead, it was brimming with hopes, ideals and thrilling speculations. In 1972 thus, Nixon orders the development of a Space Shuttle program, the first man-made satellite leaves the solar system, a man walks for the last time on the moon and his crew photographed one of the most reproduced images in human history: The Blue Marble portrait of the Earth.
1972 is also the year the cybernetic system Cybersyn and NASDAQ, the world’s first electronic stock market, were starting to show their potential. NASDAQ was only one year old but would rapidly become the fastest growing stock market. As for the socialism-imbued promises held by Cybersyn, they were cut short by the coup d’état led by Augusto Pinochet (and backed by the U.S.) in 1973.

Philip K. Dick declares that we Live in “a computer-programmed reality”
As the curator also recalls, a few years later Philip K. Dick would explain with determination (and a certain sentiment that the audience is not ready to believe his words) that we are living in a computer programmed reality. And indeed, nowadays, many scientists would argue that the science fiction writer’s declaration should not be taken lightly and that a being whose intelligence is far greater than our own might very well have created us for their own entertainment. In other words, chances are that we are indeed living in a computerized simulation.
What is sure is that artificial manipulations and decisions of all kinds have very physical and real impacts on our culture.
“Nowadays, algorithms are everywhere,” writes Chardronnet. “They organize the planning and optimal use of resources, pictures rendering, bio-computerizing, cryptography, stock exchanges, electronic surveillance, target marketing, our behavior on social media… But algorithms are as old as Babylon. If procedural generation video games universes are truly infinite, is there still any enchanted gardens full of immaterial mathematical relics to be found? Or will it be time to encompass the possibility of an end?“
The title for Chardronnet’s exhibition is thus, very fittingly, Simulated Universe. The show featured artists whose works filter through the hype and anxiety surrounding a world controlled by artificial and often invisible intelligence.

Painted by Numbers provides an excellent introduction to the theme of the exhibition. Konrad Becker and Felix Stalder interviewed artists, scientists, activists, artists and experts in technology about their own perspectives on the power of algorithmic realities. The interviews were then segmented and rebuilt into short thematic videos that explore a particular issue (politics, culture, agency, etc.) under different but complementary points of view. The people interviewed talk about the perceived rationality of algorithms, weigh in on the possibility to build algorithm that would better reflect our values, discuss their lack of transparency, the subtle ways in which they are already shaping our cognitive processes, and often secretly scoring of members of society.
The videos are also available for watching online. I would highly recommend that you have a look at them if you have an hour (or 6 times 10 minutes) to spend on short films that efficiently open up all sorts of questions and provocations around the world built on data.
Extra bonus points to the authors of the videos for including women’s perspective (still not something that we should take for granted, alas!)

Important decisions are more and more devolved to machines and programs, making it difficult to determine who (or what) is actually in control. The trend is particularly noticeable in finance where increasingly high number of stock trades are now driven by algorithms.
“Algorithmic Trading. Percentage of Market Volume,” data from Morton Glantz, Robert Kissell. Multi-Asset Risk Modeling: Techniques for a Global Economy in an Electronic and Algorithmic Trading Era. Academic Press, Dec 3, 2013, p. 258.
Many types of algorithmic or automated trading activities can be described as high-frequency trading (HFT), a type of algorithmic trading characterized by such high speeds, such high turnover rates and high order-to-trade ratios that no man would ever dream of comparing to its. Algo trading been the subject of much debate since one of them caused the 2010 Flash Crash which saw nearly $1 trillion of value erased from U.S. stocks and the Dow Jones index lose almost 9% of its value in a matter of minutes. The market rapidly regained its composure and eventually closed 3% lower.
RYBN.ORG is a group of French artists who have been studying algorithmic finance for a number of years but who also created their own trading robot. Using an artificial intelligence algorithm, the autonomous program has been investing and speculating on financial markets since 2011. More recently, the group have invited other artists to join their research platform ADM XI and experiment with counter-intuitive strategies of investment and speculation.
The trading algorithms hosted on the platform follow their own non mercantile and obsessive logic: some attempt to produce a total and irreversible chaos, others try to influence the market prices to make it look like a given geometrical shape, while others tries do saturate the market with non human affects.
Within this contest, benefits are no longer driven by the prices and other economic instruments, but rather, by living organisms – soil, plants, bacteria; by supraterrestrial rules – environmental, astronomical, astrological; or by non-scientific knowledges – esoteric, magic, geomancy, etc.
Suzanne Treister‘s Quantum V algorithm is guided by data from human brains under the influence of psychoactve plants and planetary networks. Horia Cosmin Samoila‘s work submits selected stocks and financial products to an algorithm governed by the Global Consciousness Project, a Princeton University parapsychology experiment that looks for interactions between “global consciousness” and physical systems. Marc Swynghedauw’s HeidiX buys or sells stock according to how likely her actions with help her (she’s a lady bot!) reach the summit of famous mountains. Nicolas Montgermont‘s HADES trading algorithm uses its knowledge in astronomy, astrology and mythology to sell or buy gold. You can find more algorithms on the platform, the logic behind each of them is frankly quite baffling but some of them seem to perform rather well.
Regina de Miguel, Una historia nunca contada desde abajo, 2016. Photo by Luce Moreau
Una historia nunca contada desde abajo (A Story Never Told from Below) is inspired by the Cybersyn or Synco project. The project kicked off in mid-1971, when cybernetic visionary Stafford Beer was approached by a high-ranking member of the newly elected socialist government of Salvador Allende. The scientist was asked if he could apply his cybernetic theories to the management of the public sector of the Chilean economy. The objective of Cybersyn was to use a system of networked telex machines and computers to transmit data from factories to the government, allowing for economic planning in real time. The project was dropped after Pinochet’s 1971 coup.
Regina de Miguel’s film lasts roughly 2 hours and i didn’t get a chance to watch it properly, alas! From what i’ve seen and also gathered from various readings and discussions, it seems that the work looks at times (which might now be regarded as ‘utopian’) when scientists and politicians embraced technology with enthusiasm in the hope that they would genuinely help them govern and improve humanity. However, utopias, even the most revolutionary ones, tend to be betrayed by the systematic failures of the times when they were conceived.

Špela Petrič, Miha Turšič, Dunja Zupančič and Dragan Živadinov believe that the research in arts and humanities should be recognized as development practices complementary to space science and technology. The installation and performance they presented at GAMERZ are part of a broader call to integrate art forms into space programmes.
Živadinov was a co-founder of the avant-garde art collective Neue Slowenische Kunst and the director of the first complete theatre production in zero gravity conditions. In 1995 Živadinov embarked on Noordung 1995-2045, a 50-year theatrical process named after the famous Slovene rocket engineer and pioneer of cosmonautics.
The Noordung 1995-2045 theatre piece is to be repeated on the same day, every ten years, until 2045. Should any of the actors die during this 50 year period (as it happened already with actress Milena Grm), their role will be symbolized on stage by a remote controlled sign that the individual had previously selected. As for their text, it will be replaced by a melody for women and rhythm for men. Since it is highly likely that all actors will have passed away by 2045, all that will remain on the stage for the last performance will be their technological substitutes. Each of these devices will then be sent in the Earth’s orbit from where they will transmit signals back to Earth and also into deep space.
