A REGRESSOR PRIVILEGE
Tumblr media
-> warning: yandere theme, death, gender neutral reader, spoiler from the ending!, angst(?)
-> request by anon! Hello! First off, YOUR BLOG IS SO CUTE I LOVE IT!!!! ❤️❤️ Secondly, if it's not to much trouble, can I request Sung Jin Woo with a reader that regresses? Like, they're not very strong(bc that's the price of their ability) but everytime he or they die, they regress back to the D-dungeon incident. They also can't talked much, because of censorship from the system. But every regression they've loved him even when he doesn't! Thank you and have a lovely day!!!
-> a/n: I loved writing this one!!! with the idea of a regressor reader with Jinwoo not only make this a tragic romance with fluff and sweet moment but also angst :) my fault that I am no longer active as I used to, school is killing me :/ but I am doing better now
Tumblr media
-> sometimes you don’t recall the last time you felt real pain. of course, some cuts and bruises happen in your days for the most simplest reasons, but you don’t remember any more attempts to clean the little injuries neither patching the bruises along your skin, that don’t really matter knowing that your life will happen again in a few seconds.
-> jinwoo failed to save the world this time, like many times, leaving the place what you called home in ruins and chaos. Poor boy, doesn’t he know that still fighting all the monarchs wouldn’t changing nothing? He has no knowledge of what you have experienced for the last few years, none else know and you can’t never tell anyone about it.
-> when the last attack from one of the monarchs hit Jinwoo’s chest, making him finally defeated after fighting for so long, you just closed your eyes for a few moments while sitting to a closer bench that gave you a good place to witness the fight. Can you say that he got closer this time? Nah, that would be weird, you did gene try to met him this time, leaving him to get closer to that girl… Maybe next time, you should try to date him again.
-> after minutes, finally opening your eyes to notice that you are once again inside your office, ready to leave after writing an article about the weather ( writing it so many times made you wonder if you should try a new job this live ). Is this the seventeenth time you are living this? Probably, you stop counting after a while. What a terrible power you got.
-> whatever you or Jinwoo died or he fails to save the world, the time is reset and brings you back to the day he change his life completely and your too. When he wakes up from and realize that he has to change his life to become the greatest hunter of all time, you need to find a way to secure to not die this time neither him…. You can’t handle dying again and again, over and over. Not to mention the many times you tried to look to a way to lose the power and in the end, you kept dying or being using for tests.
-> stood up from your seat, you grabbed your belongings and left the building with the intention of going home and spend the rest of your day there, and probably ask to renounce from job and to search for another one, it’s getting boring writing the many articles from memories, let’s try something new this time.
-> arriving home, you look to your neighbor’s door, there is where Jinwoo and his sister lives in all your seventeenth lifes, that how you know him and about his works as a Hunter. Every morning, you and him would meet up either on the front door or so did the elevator, where a small conversation happen and another one, that kept occurring til the day he finally asked you out after the incident, leading you two becoming a couple.
-> it was nice, you admitted it, however after witnessing him dying over again changed your mind really fast. The relationship is probably one the main reasons why he didn’t train as hard to deafest the monarchs, making him failing all those times and now, you are looking forward to your friendship with Jinwoo don’t change at all… it will be better if you just ignore him for now.
-> quit your office job to join a coffee shop, one that is getting popular recently, meaning that you have to leave home earlier to prepare the many desserts and drinks, also that make you unable to meet with Jinwoo, a win. Might be overworking, but the sensation of the freshly candies out the oven and the smell of coffee make it all worth, not to mention the lovely coworkers and clients you got closer, this time you are feeling that Jinwoo will defeat the monarchs, you are sure of that.
-> with the work going smoothly as you expected in the last days, you decided to create a new drink to attract more clients and getting the coffee shop more fame in the social medias, a simple plan that did work after all. The lines got bigger and your coworkers were impressed of your idea, all of them congratulated you for helping them since the day you began working here and in return asked if you would like to go home earlier as a little reward, but you denied, saying that you love working here and there is no problem to stay behind to clean part by yourself. They were little worried of all working, but with your big smile, they let you work.
-> by yourself, you start cleaning the place with the mob and packing up the food that didn’t sold to give to the shelter nearby, it’s getting darker meaning the chances of someone entering the shop are low, but never zero and when the classic bell rang, you are meet with familiar faces that you didn’t want to, Jinwoo and Jinah entering the shop.
-> they look so happy and their smile only grown bigger the instant both of them notice you. Jinah didn’t hesitate to run and almost dropping into the ground with a hug and kisses spread around your face. You are happy to see her and to feel her touch once again, but her brother standing behind the gentle girl is what scare you the most.
-> jinah ordered for some dessert and went to eat it somewhat in the store, leaving you to talk with Jinwoo alone after spending so much time far away from him, trying to not seeing his face anymore, only in the news. But guess destiny had others plans that make you two met once again in this life.
-> you were supposed to take him out after Jinah finished her desserts and say that neither of them needed to pay it, but the girl was longer gone (how you never noticed it?), leaving you without options, you have to talk with Jinwoo after months of not seeing him.
-> Jinwoo began speaking quite fast, starting with the the incident that occurred in that dungeon and how he managed to get stronger, taller and gain his fame as a S-Hunter. Might look he is putting himself on a pedestal with telling everything that is related to him, yet he is trying his best to impress you, but isn’t working.
-> your eyes didn’t change neither your neutral expression that keep bothering him since he first step inside the cafe and his heart almost broken when you asked him to leave if he don’t order anything, adding that you need to close the shop before it’s get to dangerous to return home. That truly hurt his heart.
-> he panicked hearing your words, how the two of you became so distant from another? Why you keep ignoring him even with him trying to reconnect with you with many attempts of showing his true feelings towards the person he cares, loves and desire the most! He wants to experience all those dates that he kept dreaming with you! He needs to make you understand his feelings!
-> before you could leave, Jinwoo grabbed you by the waist and made you entered his arms (too strong to leave his embrace), not losing any second or letting you think, he placed a kiss on your forehead while speaking all those sweet words he always wanted to say, telling you of those dreams he kept having, meaning that you are destined to be with him, he can’t let you go away like before.
-> this was supposed to be a good moment between you and him. You are supposed to be happy and accept his feelings and began dating him, yet those dreams he said to have are actually dates that you had with him in past lifes, how he can remember that? That doesn’t really matter, you need to leave him to never see his face anymore, you have to tell him that… but why you can’t speak a word?
-> looking around, you notice the many shadows staring at you, making you feel scared and anxiously, are they going to hurt you? You tried voicing your thoughts to Jinwoo, explaining to him that he needs to leave alone forever, but nothing happen again and slowly your mind made you closer your eyes and succumb into his arms.
-> no worries, when you open your eyes, you will wake up somewhere safe and peaceful at his side, Jinwoo will take care of everything in your name, he give you anything you desire as long you stay at his side.

word count: 5.3k
author’s notes: okay so i kinda sorta altered the plot of s4 for this to work (for obvious reasons), but its simply for angst purposes…kk bye :)
Tumblr media
You got a new life
Am I bothering you?
Do you wanna talk?
We share the last line
Then we drink the wall
'Til we wanna talk
I go 'round and 'round
Satellite
Eddie didn’t realize when he introduced you to Robin and Steve that you would so easily slip into their friend group. Of course he knew everyone would love you, but he didn’t realize how much. Before he was even aware, his circle of friends had grown to a number that was behind his comprehension. For the longest time it was just you and him against everyone else. Now, there was Steve, Robin, Nancy, Jonathan, his band/Hellfire members, and all the younger kids. He loved all of them, even though he’d never admit that, but he missed the times when it was just the two of you in his room in the trailer. You got a new life, one that he introduced you to… how could he be jealous of that when he was the reason you knew all of them? It was stupid to be jealous of people that didn’t know you like he did. Eddie was your best friend – he knew that. He did. Yet, he still felt you slipping away slowly and maybe not intentionally, but you were. He was starting to feel like it was all his fault. When Eddie did talk to you when all of you were together it was like he was bothering you. It was crazy to think that, truly. Eddie was your everything and you were his. The issue was, Eddie wasn’t sure if “everything” meant the same thing to you as it did to him. He is in love with you. Stupid, mindnumbing, all-consuming love. He tried to give himself space from you, thinking maybe that would clear his head. Spoiler: it didn’t work. Instead, he roped you into even more chaos when he told you about the Upside Down and all of its supernatural entities. Which brought him to the Wheeler’s basement, listening as you and the others discussed the next moves. Eddie runs his fingers through the ripped holes in his jeans, pulling at the loose threads.
“I just don’t understand why we have to go back there.” Robin says, rolling her eyes in exasperation.
“Yeah, I’m not following Nance,” Steve shakes his head. “If we know Vecna is dead, why would we go back?” After the Earthquake and massive fight across multiple dimensions, the physical form of Vecna had not been seen and no suspicious deaths had occurred. The group was able to clear Eddie’s name and blame it on Satanic Panic, and more “chemical leaks” still happening due to the Hawkins Labs. However, you all knew better than to bask in the peace because the fight was only starting.
“We don’t know he’s dead, Steve.” Nancy gives Steve a pointed look.
“Listen,” your voice catches Eddie’s attention. He tilts his head up watching you intently as you speak, “I don’t want to go back either, but Nancy is right. If we want to save Max, we have to try.” The rest of the group gives somber frowns as they think about Max and how she’s barely holding on as of now. It’s killing each of you slowly to know that she suffered because your plan went awry. “Eddie?” You turn to him with unwavering eyes, “what do you think?”
I’d follow you into the literal depths of Hell if that's what you wanted, he thinks while holding your gaze. He stands from the couch, brushing his hands against his jeans, “I think we should make sure the fucker is dead.”
Spinning out, waiting for ya to pull me in
I can see you're lonely down there
Don't you know that I am right here?
Spinning out, waiting for ya to pull me in
I can see you're lonely down there
Don't you know that I am right here?
Spinning out, waiting for ya
Eddie swore he would never return to the Upside Down after the last close call, but instead he was chucking a rope having upgraded from bed sheets through the gate in his ceiling to enter again. There’s no way this is my life, he shakes his head as the rope thumps on the ground on the other side. Your cool fingers grip his forearm, turning him to you.
“We’re going to be okay,” you say in a reassuring tone. Eddie wants to get on his knees and beg you to stay here. Or run away from Hawkins with him. Or do anything besides this.
“How do you know that?” He asks, his voice hoarse. Eddie blinks slowly, his eyes lingering on your mouth.
“I don’t,” you sigh. You tighten the military-grade vest around your torso, trying to do something with your shaking hands. Eddie notices your anxious movements and places his larger hands on yours. You look up at him with misty eyes and a small smile. He mirrors your expression before turning his face down to rest his forehead on the top of your head. Eddie inhales a shaky breath, pressing a soft kiss to your hairline. Your friendship always bordered the line of more than platonic, but Eddie knew he couldn’t risk admitting his feelings to you. So he would steal forehead kisses and hugs whenever he could. It was wrong for him to do it now when you were so scared, but he needed to comfort you in the only way he knew how. He wanted to tell you that he was always going to be right here, waiting for you; but instead all he said was, “c’mon let’s get this over with.”
-✩-
You flop down on the mattress in the Upside Down, Eddie extends his hand and pulls you up from the floor.
“I’ll never get used to this,” you groan as you stand.
“We shouldn’t have to,” Eddie agrees, but it sounds more like an annoyed comment to you. You and Eddie head towards the front door of the trailer, Eddie hesitates before grabbing the doorknob. He feels his pulse in every square inch of his body, the majority focused on his scars. The scars were a part of him that he grew to accept, but coming back to the place that gave him those imperfections was not something he ever wanted to do. Ever. His mind races to the last time he was here; I almost died, he feels dizzy as the memory returns. “Sorry,” he apologizes and shakes the thought from his head. You grip his arm again with just enough force to ground him.
“Eds,” you give him a weak smile. “It's me,” you slide your hand from his arm into his hand. “You don’t have to apologize to me. I get it, this is asking a lot of you. We’ll be home soon.”
You and Eddie are deep into the forest, skipping over vines and twigs as you move through the trees. Steve, Robin and Nancy decided to take the other gate at Lover’s Lake, claiming it was smarter to split up and meet in the middle. Eddie wanted to yell at them and say that's how everyone in horror movies dies, but when you agreed to the plan he followed your lead. So far you had managed to avoid all demo-creatures as you and Eddie spoke in hushed voices. You step carefully over vines, still holding Eddie’s hand in a deathgrip. Eddie tried to ignore the flutter of his heart every time he felt your palm press to his, but he can’t stop imagining being able to hold your hand whenever he wanted.
“I think I need to go to a concert when we finally get out of here,” you comment without any previous conversation. Eddie scrunches his eyebrows as he gives you a confused look. “I’m just saying, I think we all deserve to scream our hearts out at a concert.”
Eddie doesn’t disagree, hell he never disagrees with you, yet he can’t help but laugh at your thoughts. “Only you would be thinking about live music right now,” he grins, brushing his thumb over your hand.
“Mmm, if only I knew someone in a band.”
“Yeah,” he chuckles. “If only,” Eddie flashes you a lopsided grin.
I'm in an L.A. mood
I don't wanna talk to you
She said, "Give me a day or two"
I go 'round and 'round
Satellite
Spinning out, waiting for ya to pull me in
Finally, the daunting Creel House comes into view as you and Eddie stop at the mailbox. In the distance bike tires crunch along the road. Steve, Robin and Nancy head towards you on bicycles that are way too small for them.
“No fair,” Eddie groans. “They got bikes!”
“Eds.” You roll your eyes.
“I know, not the point.” He mocks you with a playful smirk.
“Alright, love birds,” Steve interrupts, causing you and Eddie to clear your throats at the same time. You’re not sure, but you could swear you see a faint blush rise on Eddie’s cheeks.
The five of you push open the doors to the house, stepping inside with as much stealth as you can. Robin and Eddie focus all their attention to where they step, both of them convinced they’re going to trip if they move upstairs. While you, Steve and Nancy scan the house for any signs of Vecna on the second floor and attic. The floorboards creak under every step you take, some of them becoming loose entirely and falling to the first floor below. Nancy grips your arm, pulling you away from the opening in the ground; she offers you a small smile before you continue into the next room. Steve and Nancy head into Henry’s old bedroom while you stay in the hallway to watch for any other movement. You hear Robin and Eddie’s hushed voices through the slats of the house as they move around below you.
“You still didn’t tell her? Eddie!” Robin asks, with what you can only imagine is a shove to Eddie’s shoulder.
“Shh,” Eddie whispers, but it’s just loud enough for you to hear. “I haven’t found the right time to. I don’t think she’ll ever feel that way about me…it’s not just some crush, I love her.” It feels like all the oxygen in the room was sucked out as you continue to listen. Eddie’s in love? Who was he in love with? When did he know? Why didn’t he tell me? So many questions bounce around in your brain as you try to piece together how you could have missed it. Eddie was in love with someone and he didn’t tell you. Your heart broke as you continued to hear Robin beg Eddie to tell this girl he loved. You could never place where your true feelings fell for Eddie. He was always your safe space, your best friend, your everything. You love him, but you couldn’t fall in love with him without knowing he would feel the same. It was too risky, too unknown…so instead you pushed your romantic feelings deep down. It was safer to know you had him in your life for good without the uncertainty of telling him how you really felt. You tilt your head towards the end of the hall trying to hear Robin and Eddie better.
“It’s— I don’t know. She’s my best friend, y’know? I can't risk losing her if she doesn’t feel the same.”  
“Eddie,” Robin's voice is gentle. “You’ve been in love with her since the moment you met. She loves you too, I’m sure of it.”
“Yeah?” Eddie asks, and you notice what sounds like shuffled foot steps. You can picture Eddie scuffing his shoes on the ground out of nerves. “How do you know?”
“You don’t see the way she looks at you when you’re not looking. Y/N loves you— in the same way you love her.”
He’s in love with me? Your head spins as you slowly step back towards the stairs, trying desperately to hear more of their conversation. Your body acts before you’re able to think straight, you step forward on another loose floorboard…but this time Nancy isn’t there to catch you. You crash through the floor, wood splitting across the hall as you lay among the broken pieces. You gasp for air, having felt the wind get knocked out of you when you fell. You stop your panicked breathing to try and level yourself.
Eddie rushes to the noise from the other side of the hall, unsure of what happened; but when he sees you, his entire world stops. It feels like time moves even slower as he approaches you with bated breath. Please be alive. You gasp for air again and the clock is back to normal pace as Eddie reaches you. He kneels by your side, not caring if he’s stepping on any of the “hive”. Eddie’s gentle as he reaches for your cheek; your attention is frantic as you scan the room trying to breathe correctly again. Your sides and back ache and every time you breathe it feels like fire should come out. You try to push yourself up to reach Eddie. You just want him to hold you and take you home. He lets you move slowly, but makes sure you don’t go too fast.
“Hey, hey, hey,” Eddie tries desperately to get you to look at him. He strokes his thumbs over your cheekbones, his calmness makes you focus on him. It can’t be that bad if he’s looking at me like this…right? Your thoughts race as you watch Eddie carefully scan over the rest of you. There’s no obvious injuries which calms and concerns him at the same time. “Look at me, sweetheart.” Your heart suddenly feels like it’s on fire too, but you know it’s not from the fall. He takes your hand in his and places it on the center of his chest. “Breathe with me, okay?” Eddie inhales and holds his breath for a moment before releasing it. He drags out the exhale for longer than he normally would before repeating the same process. Your eyes stay focused on his hand covering yours on his chest as you repeat his movements. Inhale, exhale. Inhale, exhale. You raise your eyes from your joined hands to Eddie’s eyes. His face cracks into a small smile, his eyes glossy as he looks at you. “You’re okay,” he says, trying to convince both you and him of it.
“I’m okay,” you repeat back in a hoarse voice. Eddie feels his heartbeat in his ears, every cell in his body is on fire as he watches you. I could have lost her, I could still lose her.  
“We have to go,” Eddie’s voice is shaky as he looks for support from the others. Steve, Nancy, and Robin all stand behind Eddie watching you intently. No one wants to panic you or overreact, but each of their faces are scrunched in concern. No one argues with him as they all help you stand, Eddie’s hand finding your side and pulling you to him.
“Eddie, I’m okay.” You insist, “I can walk. I’m sure I’ll be fine. Just give me a day or two and I’ll be good as new.”
Eddie looks down at you under his arm, “I don’t care if you can walk. I’m holding you until we get back to Hawkins. Maybe even after that.” You hesitate to answer, but Eddie continues, “can't take you anywhere, huh?”
You jab your elbow into his ribs, which he pretends you gravely injured him as he gasps. You rest your head against Eddie’s side laughing lightly.
I can see you're lonely down there
Don't you know that I am right here?
Spinning out, waiting for you to pull me in
I can see you're lonely down there
Don't you know that I am right here?
Eddie refused to leave your side the entire trip home and even after that. He made sure to give you “absolutely-necessary” piggy back rides up the stairs, made you his favorite snacks, and “borrowed” movies from Family Video. He finally left your house a full 24-hours later, after making sure you slept through the night. Your heart fluttered as you watched him sleep in the chair in the corner of your room. He adamantly refused to stay in your bed, claiming you needed the space to rest. Eventually when Eddie did leave for Hellfire the next day, his eyes looked over every bruise on your body before pulling you into a tight hug. He squeezed you into him, making sure not to go too hard even though he wants to. You grumble into his chest, “Eddie, you have to go. They're going to be waiting for you. I’m fine. I’ll be here when you get back,” you tilt your face up. Eddie offers you a soft smile which you mirror. He brushes the stray hairs away from your face before keeping his hands on your face for a little too long. “Eds,” you say after he doesn’t respond.
“Yeah,” Eddie shakes his head and drops his hands from your face. “I’ll be back tomorrow, please call me if you need anything,” you try to argue, but Eddie narrows his eyes at you. “You’re not going to be a bother, so don’t even say that. Hellfire can wait.” His eyes and mind are scattered as he looks at you; he wants to tell you how much he wants to stay. Never has he ever wanted to skip Hellfire…but he doesn’t want to leave you. His heart constricts against his chest, every emotion and feeling he has for you being trapped inside.
“I’ll see you tomorrow,” you promise in a hushed voice.
Right here, right here
Spinning out, waiting for ya
I'm here, right here
Wishing I could be there for ya
Be there for ya
Be there for ya, for ya
Focusing on the conversation during lunch the following day was even harder than Eddie expected. Every time he tried to pay attention to whatever the table was discussing, his mind kept wandering off to think about you. Eddie had replayed the night in the Upside Down too many times, but he kept harboring so much guilt about it. What if I told her no? What if we didn’t go back? What if she stayed downstairs? What if I was with her? Eddie's mind frantically ran over the same questions, tormenting him. He kept sneaking glances over at where Robin was sitting, wondering whether or not he should ask if she heard from you. You and Eddie didn’t share the same lunch period or any of the same classes so it was impossible to know how your day was going. Maybe I’ll skip English and wait by her locker? No, that’s pathetic. You’ll see her in a couple of hours—
“…after that Nancy wants to visit y/n. Y’know make sure she’s okay after this morning, but maybe Nancy can drop me off afterwards.” Mike mentions nonchalantly to Dustin as he explains why he can’t make it to Will’s tonight.
“You didn’t bring your bike?” Dustin asks, but Mike has no time to answer before Eddie cuts him off.
Eddie feels his pulse thumping in his ears, “what happened this morning?”
“What do you mean?” Mike shakes his head, “she didn’t tell you?”
“Wheeler, what the fuck happened to her?”
“She passed out or something trying to go back upstairs before school, I don’t know you’d have to—”
Eddie doesn’t hear the rest of what Mike has to say before his chair is scraping across the tile floor of the cafeteria. He rushes out of the cafeteria and out of the school before any teachers notice—and if they do notice, no one stops him. Eddie turns over the key in his van, cursing over and over about how you should have called. He feels like he’s going crazy. You’re consuming his every thought, worry, feeling, action, emotion. Everything. You consume him entirely. He’s so deeply in love with you that all caution and rationality has been thrown out the window. Eddie drives like a mad man to get to your house as fast as he can; his arms are covered in goosebumps when he pulls up to your house. He pushes the car door open and practically spills out onto the pavement. His breathing is staggered when he slams a fist against the front door. Eddie gives one quick look around your driveway to determine your parents are not home. Screw it. He thinks as he turns the doorknob and barrels inside.
Spinning out, waiting for ya to pull me in (spinning out, waiting)
I can see you're lonely down there
Don't you know that I am right here?
Spinning out waiting for ya (for ya, for ya) to pull me in (for ya)
I can see you're lonely down there
Don't you know that I am right here?
You wake up to the sound of someone yelling your name through your house. For a moment you panic about the fact that someone is inside, but when the voice calls again you realize it’s Eddie. Every muscle in your body relaxes as you start to sit up in bed. Your head kills, but physically your body is starting to feel better.
“I’m in my room!” You call as you shuffle around your comforter. Swinging your legs over the edge, you sit on the bed waiting for Eddie. Eddie’s heavy steps bound up the stairs, and the door swings open before you realize he’s even made it to your room. His brown eyes are glossy as he scans over your entire room before rushing to your bedside. He collapses to his knees, his chest pressed into your legs as his arms wrap around your waist. You gasp at his dramatic display, but quickly you run your fingers through his curls. A smile pulls at your lips as you look down at him, “are you okay?”
“Am I okay? Fuck- are you okay?” Eddie asks in between sniffles pressed to your shirt. He leans back and wipes his face with his shaky hands. “Jesus, what happened?” He rests his palms on your thighs, rubbing his thumb over your skin softly. He frowns as he takes in the deep purple, yellow and red splotches that cover your skin from your fall.
“I don’t know,” you shrug, still moving your hands through his hair. “I was fine getting up this morning, but going down the stairs was a lot. So when I realized I left my keys upstairs I had to go back for them.” You try to smile at Eddie and calm him, but his face remains just as worried. “I was like half way up them when it all went blurry. Nancy found me there when she came to drive me to school.” Eddie’s blood runs cold thinking about how lifeless you must have looked laying on your stairs. He can’t see you get hurt again, he can’t lose you. “I begged her not to call you. Believe me, she wanted to. So please don’t be mad at her,” you give him a stern look, but there’s no reason to because Eddie will always listen to you. He nods as you continue, “I just didn’t want to worry you. I already knew how much of your day I took up yesterday, I made you late to Hellfire, you slept in a chair–”
“I wanted to.” Eddie replies without hesitation. You brush your hands over his curls again, giving him a weak smile. His heart pounds like a jackhammer against his ribs. I have to tell her, he decides. Every voice of reason screams for him to stop before he’s ruined it all… but Eddie can’t take it anymore.
“Eddie,” you frown. “I love how concerned you are for me. I do. You’re the best friend I could ask for–”
“Don’t do that,” Eddie’s voice catches as he speaks. His eyes dart away from yours as he stands to his full height.
“Do what?” You ask, trying to rise from the bed. Eddie fights every urge to tell you to sit back down so he can hold you.
“Don’t you know that I am right here? I want you to bother me. I want you to call me. I want you. I feel like– fuck. I feel like I’m going crazy, sweetheart.” Eddie bitterly laughs as he turns away from you. All of his emotions are battling each other as he combs a nervous hand through his hair. “I’m just spinning out waiting for you to pull me in. So please,” he begs. “Please just pull me in and tell me.”
“Tell you–”
“Tell me you love me,” a tear slips from his eyes and down his cheek. “Or just put me out of my misery.”
Spinning out, waiting for ya (for ya, for ya) to pull me in (for ya)
I can see you're lonely down there
Don't you know that I am right here?
Time stops just like it had when you fell. Eddie is certain he’s in an extremely lucid dream because there is no way he just professed his love for you like he had. He claimed he hated all those romantic movies you forced him to watch, but whenever he thought about telling you how he felt, he remembered all those corny movies. Eddie had planned for the large, romantic gesture to sweep you off your feet; instead he was in tears about losing you before he even had you. He felt like he was going crazy. There was nowhere to put all of these emotions that he felt for you. It all came so easily and naturally to him, he didn’t even realize how in love with you he was until Robin pointed it out. Now after seeing you hurt he couldn’t take it anymore, you had to know how he felt. The clock resets as Eddie stares down at you on the bed, he watches you play with your hands like you always do when you’re nervous.
Your mind feels like it’s in a fog. You knew how Eddie felt, but you couldn’t be sure he was only telling you because of everything that happened. You didn’t want him to feel pressured into saying how he felt all because you couldn’t make it up the stairs.
“I do love–” you start to say as your mind clears.
“Not like that,” Eddie turns to you. His voice is harsh, but all of his features remain soft as silent tears roll from his eyes. “You know what I meant Y/N.”
“Eddie,” you feel your own eyes starting to tear up as you watch him.
“Tell me. Either way– Christ. Just- please, just tell me.”
“Do you mean it?” You ask and Eddie starts to talk, but you raise a hand to him. “Not just because I’m hurt, or because Robin told you to tell me. Do you mean it?”
“Robin? What are you– You heard us?”
“I heard you through the floors. That’s, mmm,” you hesitate to continue. Eddie sinks down to meet your eyeline again. “I was trying to listen when I fell.”
“Oh sweetheart,” Eddie’s voice is soft as uses a finger to tilt your chin up to look at him.
“I just want to make sure you’re not just saying it to say it.”
“I love you,” Eddie replies, his eyes lingering on your mouth. “I’m in love with you. I always have been. I would have told you no matter what. This,” he gestures to your bruises on your legs. “Just gave me the courage to say it.”
“Really?” The floodgates to your emotions break, every ounce of love you have for Eddie rushing to the front. Eddie slowly reaches his hands up from your legs to tuck your hair behind your ear.
“Really,” Eddie smiles and all the mixed emotions have seemed to clear from his eyes.
“Come up here, please,” your voice wavers as you talk. Eddie wastes no time to climb onto the bed next to you. His thigh brushes yours as he sits down, you keep your focus on his legs as Eddie peers down at you. Eddie nudges your shoulder with his and tilts his head forward to try to meet your eyes. You close your eyes and take a deep breath in. “We can’t mess this up, Eds. I can’t lose you.”
“I’m right here,” Eddie replies without any indecision. He will always be right here for you. Through the crazy, unpredictable, supernatural, natural, and everything in between. He squeezes your thigh once, “I’m not going anywhere.”
You melt into him, wrapping your arms around his torso and pulling yourself into his side. Eddie’s arms linger in the air for a second before he brings you even closer to him. Slowly, he lowers both of you down to lay on the bed; you keep your arms wrapped around his waist, not caring if his weight makes the one fall asleep. For the first time in days, it feels like your heart beats at a normal rate – slow and steady, as your breathing syncs with Eddie’s. “Eddie?” You look up at him, but he’s already smiling down at you. “I love you,” you profess feeling a weight lift off your chest and mind.
“I love you,” he smirks so wide his teeth start to peak out. Eddie turns his face down and presses a kiss to your hair; he’s done it a thousand times, but this time is different. It’s like you can feel all his love for you through it now. “So where should our first official date be?”
You humm for a moment trying to think of anywhere that would beat this moment, but you come up empty. You shrug and kiss the side of his ribs, “don’t know, but I’ll go anywhere with you.”
Eddie tries to ignore the way his heart flips, but he knows he’s going to have to get used to it now.
“What about a concert?” Eddie asks brushing away your hair from your face so he can trace your cheek bone. “I believe I heard somewhere that you wanted to scream your heart out at one.”
“You remembered that?” You laugh, raising an eyebrow at him. You lean up to fully look at Eddie; he’s flat on his back, one hand tucked under his head, his other tracing your cheek still.
“Of course I did,” Eddie says as if it’s a ridiculous question. “I remember everything you do.”
You can’t help yourself as you lean forward, your eyes glancing at his lips for a moment. Eddie meets you in the middle, his mouth is soft against yours as he draws you closer with his hands. He works his fingers from your face through your hair and keeps them at the base of your neck. Your lips melt into Eddie’s, he tastes like mint and tobacco — it’s addictive. He works his mouth over yours, his tongue traces your bottom lip gently. Eddie pulls away with a grin, moving his hand from your hair to brush his thumb over your bottom lip. You whine as his lips leave yours, causing him to smile more.
“Easy sweetheart,” Eddie says, pulling at your lip again. “Take me on a date first.”
You tilt your head at him, “oh, really?”
“Fuck no,” Eddie breaks. He pulls you closer, his focus back on your mouth, “we have a lot of time to make up for.”

Class 1-b and random videogames they like <3
Awase - mario cart, something about hitting his friends with red shells and stealing first place last second really makes his day <3
Sen - he doesn't play video games by himself a lot but him and the rest of the common sense kings have game nights where he is either so good that its scary or so bad that its laughable... worse part is no one knows which it will be that day.
Kamakiri - any fps game really. Halo, cod, fortnite, as long as he gets to cuss out 12 year olds in the lobby hes happy.
Kuroiro - gothic horror games that dont rely on jump scares to scare you, so like Little Nightmares and games like that.
Kendo - she likes a mixture of different types but mostly open world and cozy games. She mostly lets game osts run in the background while she does other stuff.
Kodai - splatoon. Specifically the story mode and salmon run. She used to play ranked and turf wars but she got too good at it so she stopped lmao. Seriously though she is scary good at this game and this game only.
Komori - farming sims. Specifically ones like stardew valley or sunhaven. She will stay up til ungodly hours and just be like "i need these fucking turnips to grow damnit.."
Shiozaki - simple moble games like flappy bird or crossy road, other than that she doesn't really play video games
Shishida - grandpa mindset so he doesn't know what a video game is, loves playing board games with his friends though
Shoda - i dont think he plays a lot of videogames but he is strangely good at multi-player games, shoda wins the class mario cart tournaments every time and he doesn't even know how to drift
Pony - Tomadachi pet games (idk if thats what they are called lol) where its just a little pocket pet that you have to keep alive, she will get stressed if she forgets to feed it and its actually adorable <3
Tsubaraba - LOZ:Tears Of The Kingdom
Tumblr media
Nothing more needs to he said...
Tetsutetsu - save the princess type games because its manly to help those in need of saving. (He also has over 5000 hours in hello kitty island adventure)
Tokage - idk why but I feel like she has hundreds of games no one has ever heard of. She only has like 5 or 6 hours in most of them but theres one shitty as game she lets rot in the corner thats her favorite. How tf do you have 20000 hours in 'block game HD'
Manga - Genshin Impact. He downloaded it as a meme at first but then he got invested in the storyline and characters backstorys. Definitely found himself crying at 3am because of the inazumas mushrooms backstory (they do be dead kids tho)
Honenuki - I dont think he plays a lot of videogames but when he does, he sucks. Idc how many hours he has in whatever game he will find a way to lose every time. Its kinda sad to watch honestly. T-T
Bondo - those games where you start off with boxes full of shit and you have to organize it in the room or you have to organize the water by color. Stuff like that
Monoma - classic save the princess type games. Mario, Loz, ect. He needs to feed his savior/ superiority complex and these games do it quickly
Reiko - horror games that dont look like horror games. Like they start off all pastel and cute then over time it gets darker and darker. Like omori.
Rin - he only plays videogames with people. (So the common sense kings game nights and class mario cart tournaments) but he does play solitair and sun haven rarely. Also if pony for some reason cant take care of her virtual pets today she gives them to rin because hes the best virtual pet sitter. <3
Idk why but for some of the class on this I struggled so badly </3 I still like how most of it came out tho.

June Fic Rec❤️
Summer is almost upon us! its 40c degrees here and we are over heating. so lets enjoy the nice air conditioning and the amazing fics that these amazing author wrote! 😘
Daybreak by TheObsidianQuill  - (Rating: Mature, Words: 70382, sterek)
"There . . ." Stiles swallowed and looked down at the bottle in his grasp as he slowly swirled the amber liquid inside. "There's really nothing left. For me. Everyone is . . . gone, and it feels like I haven't thought of tomorrow in years." His words rang in the air like a gunshot, he took another heavy drink. "I would trade every last breath I take to just have another shot—not even a guarantee, just a chance to make things right and bring back even one of them." -----
The pack was gone. He had nothing left. He had no one. With nothing to lose, Stiles puts everything on the line to go back in time to try to prevent the future from becoming his past. Broken, guarded, and haunted by his past, only one overgrown-pup of a wolf seems able to get past his defenses. Changing the future? Easy. Finding a place for himself in the Hale Pack? Impossible.
Not all treasure is silver and gold by princecharmingwinks  - (Rating: Mature, Words: 26597, sterek)
Captain Derek Hale is on a mission and he needs a fearless crew. His betrothed has been kidnapped, his family lives in exile and he harbours a dangerous secret. Enter Lady Erica Reyes, the perfect Quartermaster to join the crew. Erica has her own reasons for needing to escape her seaside town. An abusive father with a suggested 'arrangement' has forced her to create her own future.
A Derek and Erica friendship on the high seas, all in the name of love and family. Because not all treasure is silver and gold.
monday i can fall apart but by friday i'm in love by tryslora - (Rating: Mature, Words: 5609, sterek)
It's just past five in the morning and Stiles is barely awake, wearing only sleep pants that hang low below his pregnant belly, and he can't get the damned brand new jar of decaf coffee open. But he has a neighbor, and he's too tired to think that waking someone else up at this hour might not be the best (or politest) of ideas.
Human Things by ChloeWeird (ChloeBYoung), SylvieW - (Rating: T, Words: 10542, sterek)
Stiles keeps running into Derek, and can't leave well enough alone.
if i'm not made for you, then why does my heart tell me that i am? by EvanesDust - (Rating: T, Words: 13076, sterek)
When Derek’s kids write out their Christmas lists, they insist he writes one too. Not long after it's deposited in Santa's mailbox, he's reunited with the man of his dreams.
Stiles.
Derek can't help but fall for him again. It's really too bad Stiles is so obviously taken.
...or the one where Derek’s a grump who makes assumptions about his pregnant omega neighbor.
Disposition by Tulikettu - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 56104, sterek)
Stiles has an itch. A kinky, kinda dirty itch he needs to scratch. 
So why not go on the Internet and look for a complete stranger to scratch it? 
Derek needs a partner for his rut. 
What a coincidence.
I Didn't Know That I Was Starving (til I tasted you) by LadySlytherin - (Rating: Mature, Words: 4482, sterek)
Derek - who lives in New York with his older sister, Laura - is back in Beacon Hills, visiting his parents and younger sister for Christmas, when everything changes. Cora invites friends over while their parents are visiting other family, Derek drinks something he didn't know he shouldn't have, and things get a little out of control.
Misunderstandings abound, secrets are spilled, and in the end all it takes to find happiness is being brave enough to reach out with both hands and never let go.
The Rarest of Gems by Hedwig221b - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 26497, sterek)
"There, somewhere, a flower grows. Its curious petals reach in curiosity, but get burned in return. It craves a soothing touch, a lover’s kiss. It is the sweetest nectar, the brightest moonlight, the most alluring starry night. It is the rarest of gems. It is your mate, alpha Hale. But beware and haste, for the flower grows among the most vicious thorns, who can’t wait to tear it apart."
Strong Alpha, Strong Pups by Snare - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 7349, sterek)
Omegas are weak. Stiles is an Omega, but Stiles has magic. Stiles is strong.
Stiles is strong, so Alpha needs to be stronger. Strong Alpha, strong pups.
A Rocky Halloween by MichelleDWinchester - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 21830, sterek)
Stiles hasn't been back to Beacon Hills in a while, instead choosing to focus on his University work and internship. Now, however, Stiles is back in town for a bit of Halloween revelry with the Pack and if his risque outfit helps him discover whether or not Derek is even remotely interested in being more than 'just friends' or indeed simply Pack mates, then Stiles is all in!!

Amigo the Devil: Volume 1 Starters
sentences taken from the 2015 album. edit as desired. warning: this one does NOT pass the Hayes Code lmao. content includes, but is not limited to: sex, violence (both domestic and otherwise), alcohol, strong language, religion, general moral degeneracy, et cetera
It's all for you.
I'd rot in hell with you, if you'd just ask me to.
Come on, believe me, follow me home, there's no judgement here.
Take the shot.
This night is going to end horribly for someone.
I'm not so much afraid of letting go as much as scared of giving up.
Open up to me.
The Devil came and sold his fucking soul to me!
If I've hurt you, please forgive me. Love makes you do funny things.
This fire feels so real.
Don't say a word, my darling. I know how you feel.
On rainy days, we'll drink until the gray is left in nothing but our hair.
I know you want it, too.
I'll lay by your side 'til everything is rotten through.
Tonight, we'll celebrate life! Eat the best food and drink the best wine.
I hope your husband dies.
Are you feeling upside down or even empty inside?
Meet me down by the bar. We'll go and take this drink out to the stars.
Death is just one moment.
Some people follow rules, some people go around.
As an elephant, I'm only really relevant when I'm standing in the room.
I am the son of an asshole.
No one deserves my world quite like you do.
I'm not so much afraid of being alone, just kind of feel I've had enough.
God knows I'll do what I need.
These hands are stronger than you're led to believe.
We'll never have a house to decorate, a place that we can call our home.
If I can't have you, nobody will.
There's only one thing in this life that makes us living.
I want to be where all the stupid shit I say sounds so romantic and true.
Live with me in this sin forever.
There's nothing left to lose, 'cuz I've already lost it all.
Tonight, I'll follow you home and start up a fire that'll keep us both warm.
Hang around, let down your hair.
So you should start to undress and just… try a little less.
Now you're with this asshole- you expect me to believe it's gonna last?
Let me have this dance with you.
Your eyes look like diamonds still stuck inside the mines.
When your tongue is putrid and your skin is sagging down, I'll stick around.
It's true, I hate everything but you.
We'll laugh a little, drink a little, see what you're made of.
All the bridges in the world won't lead you back to fix what couldn't be erased.
This fairytale just ain't coming true.
I'll drive my car like I stole it, drink at the bar like I own it.
These wrinkles are the maps of all the places we went no one else would dare.
I'd rather have a reason I should stay.
There's always gonna be a better high, and a lower down.
We take things a little far, but you couldn't name a place I wouldn't go with you.
I'm capable of making you disappear.
I have a couple different faces if you need a place to hide.
The time we spent together when the light was out became my thought of you.
I am the agent that decides your fate.
There's only one kind of people in the world: people who die!
It doesn't matter what you've heard or if you're good or bad and everything between.
I love the shitty things we do together.
It's been a while since I've held anything as close as I have you.
I'd like to live my life just like a dog. Humble as can be and unconditional in everything I love.
I'll make you famous one way or another.
Home is the last place that I'd stand to be with anyone but you.
I'd crawl in bed with you. Even in someone else's blood, on top of someone else's love, in the worst motel we find.
This life is a maze with only one way out.
Every dime spent is worth looking good- and that's Hollywood!
They'll write about our story here for years to come and maybe even more, cuz there's never been a love like this before.
I'll cut to the chase, just don't try to leave.
Trust me, I'm not jealous, I'm just hoping that he really messes up.
When I had you near me I just couldn't think of anything to say, but now that I'm alone, I got the perfect things to tell you everyday.
We'll leave the world the way dreamers do.
All the parties we can throw - we'll dress like anything we please!
All the distance that we've spent apart will never have to mean a thing. Every mile I traveled was to find the perfect stone to fit your ring.
Living in the moment's hard when everything I want is in the past.
When the night falls, out comes the terror.
Your heart will always have a place to live with nothing left to be.

Music Recs (for writing)
Tumblr media
I thought it would be fun to make a post of the type of music I listen to when I'm writing while also providing music recommendations cause i love finding new music myself. obviously I'll add more as I go along
I use music to help with feelings (like angst, love, fluff, etc) since I struggle conveying those naturally and I only really use apple music because spotify has always evaded me, so I'm literally just going to write each song and then link it on youtube 😭
also heads up, my music taste is EVERYWHERE so there is no rhyme or reason to any of this
Fluff/Happy Mix:
Fall On Me by R.E.M.
Fresh by Daft Punk
Keep Feeling Fascination by The Human League
Around and Around by John Denver

General Scene Building/BG:
now this is my favorite part since these are what I use most often when writing. you can pick out obvious tone indicators here in the titles 😭
a way i've learned to tap into certain feelings for when i'm writing is by using my own feelings on personal experiences, so a lot of these playlists i'm linking I have a lot of personal connection to (also because they're all so damn specific)

I have no clue if anyone has offered up this song before. (Or if you're still taking them) But Des Rocs - Nothing Personal Reminds me Sorry, Its locked. Specifically how Alex treats Jay. (I hope you see my vision)
Oooooo i haven't heard of this song before. It's fun. I'm definitely still taking songs, i'm always taking songs, i fucking love getting new songs for sorry it's locked lol. its the best way to think about the fic while i can't actually write it for whatever reason.
The way the dude sounds like he's losing his mind as the song progresses is so perfect honestly, because yeah, Alex is slowly losing his mind.
Okay, shitty sleep deprived lyric analysis whoooo. Enjoy lmao, if this makes no sense blame my going to sleep at 4am last night.
I found you sleeping in my coffin Pale white and in your favourite party dress I start to feel a little nauseous Bloody tears, they are falling as I wept
Okay, but like, this whole thing makes it sound like the singer is a vampire, right? Alex feeling like he's undead. He's dead but his body just keeps going.
The first line is like when Alex woke up after he and Jay had sex at his house. He woke up to find Jay in his bed (i know he didn't actually wake up in the morning with Jay in his bed, he found Jay in the laundry closet, but he can have woken up in the middle of the night or something and saw Jay), in his coffin if we're going by the whole undead thing, which i am, and he feels like he must have drained Jay dry (of energy not actual blood, but you know) hence the 'paleness,' and he starts to realize just how badly he's fucked up by doing all the things he refused to in college.
And it makes him feel sick and really upset because in the back of his mind he starts to realize he's going to have to drive Jay away, otherwise it'll cause all sorts of issues.
You could use a little action Run away and lead a life without consequence Reaching for a book of matches Strike a light and you'll see the real mess that I am
Alex want's Jay to leave of his own accord, he wants Jay to take action and leave so that he doesn't have to kill him, and if he makes Jay think he's making the decision to leave on his own he's more likely to stick with it. If Alex just told him to leave, Jay would more likely try even harder to get answers and figure out what's happening.
Alex is going to show Jay just how nasty he can be, just what a mess of a person he can be, in hopes that it'll scare Jay away and keep him safe.
I swear it's nothing personal (X8)
Alex is desperately trying to remind himself that it's not anything to do with a personal dislike for Jay (it's literally the exact opposite lol), he is doing everything to keep Jay safe, and if Jay was anyone else he'd have done the same to try and save them (as long as he liked them the same way he liked Jay)
I'm gonna take you home 'Til the morning comes I swear it's nothing personal I swear that it is nothing personal
Self explanatory, he took Jay home and they had sex at his house, in his bed, for the first time. And then in the morning he did a full 180 from being lovely to being a dick, but it wasn't personal. it's not because he hates Jay or anything like that and he's desperate to remind himself of that and prove himself.
I, I see your collar bone And wanna lose control I swear it's nothing personal I swear that it is nothing personal
Gay. Lmao. Sorry, anyway, yeah, Alex saw Jay again in that parking lot and he just wanted to, like, let things go back to how they used to be even just for a little bit. He wanted to 'lose control' and just ignore all the stuff he's meant to be doing (killing Jay) to do something enjoyable instead (fucking Jay), and that 'loss' of control would actually be him taking control of the situation, and taking control of Jay again, like back in college.
This time when Alex swears it's nothing personal he's doing it in a desperate attempt to tell himself that it's not because he likes Jay, he's just pent up and frustrated and anyone would do. But it is personal. It is because it's Jay. He knows he'll have to kill him at some point, but he's trying desperately to find a reason not to do it yet.
I, I wanna drain you of the mourning I wanna tear away the shadows brick by brick I know you could've used a warning You thought I kissed you just to borrow some lipstick?
Alex hopes that taking Jay back to his house and having sex with him there will kind of make it so that Jay's less upset by having to make the decision to leave. Logically, he knows that's not how that works and fucking Jay at his house and in his bed just made it more painful for Jay to leave, because he finally got a taste of everything he'd been hoping he could one day have with Alex, but then again Alex isn't thinking straight, so.
Jay definitely could have used a warning when it came to everything Alex did, like, all the stuff the morning after, but Alex couldn't give him one. If Alex had given Jay a warning that he was going to be lovely to him and then turn a full 180, that would have worked against Alex's goal of making Jay hate him.
Also, the last line, about the lipstick, to me kinda sounds like the singer is saying that he didn't just kiss his partner for some stupid reason, like to borrow their lipstick. He kissed them for a real reason. Alex kissing Jay on the forehead and cheek and all that wasn't for no reason, Alex did it because he likes Jay and he knew that'd be the last chance he ever got to do that.
Go be a stranger at a party Reading lips across a room of empty space With a secret you keep guarded Like a funeral buries all our past mistakes
Again, Alex needing Jay to leave and hate him and become a stranger.
I swear it's nothing personal (X8)
I'm gonna take you home Until the morning comes I swear it's nothing personal I swear that it is nothing personal
I, I see your collar bone And wanna lose control I swear it's nothing personal I swear that it is nothing personal
I, I'm gonna take you home Unil the morning comes I swear it's nothing personal I swear that it is nothing personal
I, I see your collar bone And wanna lose control I swear it's nothing personal I swear that it is nothing personal
I... (X4)
I'm gonna take you home 'Til the morning comes I swear it's nothing personal I swear that it is nothing personal
I, I see your collar bone And wanna lose control I swear it's nothing personal I swear that it is nothing personal
I...
All repeated lyrics so same as above because i'm too tired to come up with anything else, i keep going to bed at 3am

You & I - Choi Beomgyu
Tumblr media
Summary: After a small slip that drove fans to believe the two of you were dating, you and beomgyu have a choice to make. One that could determine your future together.
Words: 1.1K
Warnings: Angst with a happy ending-ish
Pairing: Choi Beomgyu x GF!Reader
"You and I, we can make it til the end."
' TXT's Choi Beomgyu and soloist l/n, f/n rumored to be dating.'
It was times like these where you'd worry about your relationship. There had been suspicions about the two of you before, but it wasn't anything HYBE couldn't keep under control. This one however would've been harder to lie about.
A picture of the two of you holding onto each other was spreading through the internet, and there was no way to stop the fans from spreading it more. As expected, some were thrilled and others not so much. His MOA's bashed your name while your fans came to your defense. You thought it was ridiculous that they would go to such lengths for people they didn't personally know- to attack strangers over the internet and throw out mindless threats like they were.
It was leaked by a sasaeng of course, which surprised none of you. It was a girl that had been following Tomorrow x Together for a couple of months, and this was her first offense against the group- undoubtedly trying to bring your fame down in the process.
You sat on the couch in your living area space in your home. Your eyes were glued on the tv- where the picture had made the local news. Of course you wouldn't change the past for anything. You loved Beomgyu with your entire heart, and you were willing to risk anything for him, but you didn't want to hurt people in the process of you finding love.
You tried to fight it- you really did, but it didn't work out how you'd hoped. After the two of you did a variety show together you became quick friends. He got close, and he eventually made his way into your heart and you just couldn’t resist him. It had been going well for nearly a year now.
And now because of a Sasaeng it could be taken away from you.
"What am I going to do?" You sighed, placing your head in your hands as you mind raced to try and find a solution. You didn't want the only option for him to be between you or his group, because you'd make it easy for him.
You’d risk anything for him, but you didn’t want him to throw everything he’s worked so hard for away.
Dating in the idol industry was hard. Fans weren't too keen on their idols being in a relationship, but it was even harder for you to keep your feelings at bay. You hated that you had to sacrifice your happiness for the sake of your company and fans. It hardly seemed fair.
You had seen your friends lose their relationships, and you've seen some get kicked out of their groups for being in love with someone. Being a soloist, you didn't have to worry about messing up a groups name, but the same couldn't be said about Beomgyu. Being in a relationship with him meant you had to put his group into the equation as well.
You’d don’t want to be the reason for their downfall, and you refused to let this hurt them.
Your door opened, and Beomgyu walked inside. You stood up quickly, meeting him halfway. He didn't hesitate when it came to taking you into his arms when he saw your worried state. You held him just as tight as if this would be your last time holding him in such a way.
"We're going to figure this out." He promised you softly, pressing a gentle kiss to the top of your head. He rubbed your head gently to try and ease your nerves.
You pulled back slightly. "You can't make that promise 'Gyu."
"I am." He said once more. His eyes met yours, and you could tell just how determined he was to make sure the situation you two were facing would disappear. "Y/n, we're going to make this work."
"But what if we can't?" He had to of known the risks he was taking in being with you publicly. He was risking his career- his member's careers. He couldn't put you above them. Not when they worked so hard. "Beomgyu, you and the guys have worked too far to let it go because of me."
"I've put in a lot of work- yeah, but I'd give it all up if I had to."
Your heart sunk at the realization of how much this boy loved you. You didn't deserve him, and you didn't deserve the love he offered you. "Beomgyu, I love you more than anything, but you can't hurt them like that. They need you."
"If they care about me, then they'd understand." He muttered. "Besides, you're talking as if we've been given bad news."
You scoffed at his optimism. "Your fans want my head on a stake. I highly doubt there will be good news about this.'
He pulled you close once more. "They'll get over it. I'm meeting with the ceo in a little bit to discuss what we're going to do. Namjoon is going with me to try and convince them."
If only the two of yo could be so lucky.
“Beomgyu are you sure you want to do this?” You questioned. "We've seen how this works out with other idols. What if-"
He placed a finger over your lips to quiet you. "But that’s not us. We won't give up that easily, right?'
You removed his hand from your face before you nodded softly. "I guess you're right."
"Of course I am." He scoffed, rolling his eyes playfully. "I usually am."
Even though you could remember countless of times where he was in fact wrong, you decided to let him have this one. He made you feel better, and even though you still didn't think it was a good idea, you decided to go through with it. For him and for you.
He leaned down, pressing a soft kiss to your lips. "Nothing can come between you and I, understand?"

Bet- Dabi's Edition
Tumblr media
youtube
I'll Bet On You Baby Til The Day I Die
Dabi didn't always believe in you. He found you annoying a little bit of a thorn in his side at first. But now, he doesn't find you nearly as annoying. He trusts you.
I'd Say Let's Get Married, But That Made You Cry
Dabi could clearly remember when you accepted his proposal. He had tried to be romantic with it, buying your favorite flowers, and setting up a date similar to the first official date you two ever went on.
I'll Bet On You Darling Til The Day We Part
Dabi trusts you. He invites you to work with home over anyone else in the LOV. He told the others you were less annoying and that was the only reason he brought you. It was only somewhat true.
But I Hope That I Kick First Cause It'd Break My Little Heart
Dabi remembers the first time you were injured on a mission and it felt like his world shattered. He lit them and the whole place ablaze, not caring if it ruined the mission, before hauling you out of there quickly to get medical advice.
I'll Bet On You Sweetheart, Like A Game Of Cards And If I Lose My Hand, I'm Sure It's Worth The Charge
Dabi could tell when you were bluffing. He knew you didn't have better cards than him. Most of the time he won. He'd rub it in your face, but only for a few minutes. He'd let you win sometimes, even when he knew your hand was shit.
To Love And To Lost Is Worth The Cost
Dabi stayed beside you even if it cost the mission. Even if he got injured. He wasn't letting you go once he decided you were his
So I'm Wagering Forever Just To Be In Your Arms
Dabi knew it was risky to marry you. He knew it was risky to give you that big stolen ring, but he didn't really care, especially when he gets to see you wear it everyday.
{see chorus at end}
If This Won't Convince You To Take On The Part, My Piano's Already Wearing Your Name In A Heart
Dabi knew right from the moment he realized he was in love with you, he'd never let you go. He loved you, yet he still teased you and treated you like shit for a week before finally asking you out on a real date.
If This Overwhelms You And You Fade Away, Just Please Be Kind I See My Scar Every Fucking Day
Dabi was aware that he was flawed. He had scars all over his body, he wasn't nice to you when you first met, and he was pretty cocky. Even if he acted so cocky, he was worried about losing you constantly.
You Stitched Up My Forehead
Dabi remembers the first time you helped him through a pretty rough patch in his life. You didn't leave him. He felt grateful and even though he never said thank you, he tried to show it in his actions.
And Made My House Home, Now Every Chair I Sit In Feels Just Like A Throne
Dabi and you moved in together after years of saving up. It was worth it in the end. He didn't have that many possessions, but he loved to watch you decorate in the home. It felt complete with your touches.
My Words Fail Me Daily To Show Where I Stand
Dabi's never been one for words. His quips were often clever but short and he never felt like he could express his feelings before. He got better over time, but it took a while.
But Good God Took On New Meaning When You Tattooed On My Hand
Dabi never got your name tattooed on his body. He made you draw a little heart and got that tattooed instead. He preferred it was subtle and only he knew it was yours.
{Chorus}
I'm Playing With Fire, In A Sense I Feel Warm
Dabi loved when you cuddled up to him on cold nights. His body naturally radiating heat. He held you and at first it was a little awkward but it became more and more comfortable with practice and time.
And I Swear To Fucking God I'll Weather The Storms
Dabi was determined to make things work, even if you had arguments or fights. He made you sit and talk about it. He wanted to make this work badly. He knew his parents never talked and wanted to do your relationship better.
I'm Running The Numbers And Counting The Days Until You Tack On My Made Up Last Name
Todoroki never suited you and him. He made up a new legal last name just for you and him to share.
{Outro Music}
Dabi swears he wasn't crying on your wedding day but you recall otherwise. He swears he wasn't a mess over seeing you in your dress but your photos say otherwise. He swears his voice didn't tremble, even a little bit, during your vows but your videos say otherwise. He swears you looked perfect.

"A Father's Love"
*This is strictly platonic, they have a father-son relationship and there's slight sad junk in this*
Tonight was one of the worst nights that Chuck can think of. Not only did they lose to the BCC again he also got brutally mauled by the young man who he still claims as his son. Chuck could feel a bruise forming under his eye and his jaw hurts from the elbow jabs that Wheeler gave him. Everyone keeps telling Chuck that he should just forget about Wheeler and stop believing that he's gonna come back to him and Best Friends, that Wheeler is a lost cause but like always Chuck still tries to find the sweet boy he mentored and loved as his own flesh and blood inside the violent monster he became.
While Rocky and Trent shared a room, Chuck opted to have a room by himself so he can have some quiet and listen to his thoughts. "Should I just give up on him? He seems to be happier and is becoming a better wrestler than when he was with us and was getting trained by me" he thought. Chuck looks at some old photos of him and Wheeler on his phone and he can feel tears starting to form in his eyes. Sure they weren't related by blood but he still felt like Wheeler was his actual son, like he was some precious little thing that needed to be loved and protected from every bad thing in the world. Wheeler even called Chuck "dad" on some occasions and it made his heart swell when he knew Wheeler thought of him as family too.
He felt the tears fall down his face at the happy memories of the times he's shared with his son. Even if Wheeler beats him up til he's unrecognizable, Chuck would still love him.
He heard a knock at the door and he wiped the tears from his eyes. When he opened the door he was shocked to see Wheeler standing there looking like he's about to cry. "Wheeler? w-what are you doing he..." he couldn't finish his sentence before Wheeler hugged Chuck and started crying into his chest. "I'm so *hic* sorry *hic* dad!" Wheeler said while streams of tears were falling down his face. Chuck just held Wheeler and ushered them to the bed where he continued to hold him. "Why are you sorry Wheeler?" Chuck asked while slowly rocking Wheeler. "Cause ever since I joined the BCC, I attacked you, berated you, beat you until you were unconscious, for fucks sake I even fucking used the move you taught me on you! It's been eating me up inside knowing that I hurt you and you don't even deserve it! Tonight was just another reason why I don't deserve to have been taught by you or even be your son! You probably fucking hate me now" Wheeler said and started to sob harder.
Chuck patted his sons back and cupped his face so Wheeler could look at him. "Wheeler, I could never hate you because I love you with all my heart" Chuck said with tears starting to fall down his face again. "I know you have to act tough around those guys and I'm proud that you found a stable where you can become the best wrestler you could be" Chuck said while wiping the tears from Wheeler's eyes. "Yes, beating me almost unconscious after the match ended was a little uncalled for...but I guess we could call it even because I did throw a chair at mox at the beginning of the match but in my defense he's a cocky son of a bitch who needed to be knocked down a peg" Chuck said which made Wheeler laugh. "Finally, I'm glad you use the move I taught you because it means that I made such a huge impact in your career and I'm fucking proud to call you my son even if we're not related" Chuck said which made Wheeler smile that made Chuck's heart melt. "R-really? You're proud of me and you still love me?" Wheeler said while wiping the last remaining tears from his eyes. "Cross my heart and hope to die" Chuck said while making an "x" over his heart and kisses Wheeler's forehead.
Wheeler hugs him super tight, "I love you so much dad" he says. "Love you too Wheelsie, now how about we order some room service and watch some TV? I think Transformers is about to come on and I know you love that movie" Chuck says smiling while Wheeler shakes happily. "Fuck yes! I want grilled cheese for dinner!" he says happily. After eating some room service and watching his sons favorite movie with him, Chuck tucks Wheeler into bed and just looks at his adorable baby with so much love. He kisses his forehead and whispers "I'm glad you crashed into my life Wheeler, and I'm glad to be your father and no matter what stable you're in, I will still love and support you with all my heart." With that said he gets into bed with his son, who rolls over and lays on Chuck's chest which Chuck gladly appreciates and then falls asleep with the best thing that's ever happened to him.

Hello! Hope you're doing well, and if it hasn't been good I hope things will get better soon for you!
If you don't mind sharing, do you have any recommendations for drarry fics to read?
🧡🧡🧡 super sweet of you to say thank you so much!
As for drarry fic reccs, maybe I’d be a better person to ask in a couple of more months since im such a terribly slow reader. I honestly scour this list !
So far though my favorite has been Eclipse by Mijan. It’s the right amount of plot, tension, and I really really enjoyed the slow build from the feral hateful drarry to mutually beneficial drarry, to the careful friendship drarry, until the comfort they find in each other swells and folds into romance. It’s a lot of what I’d want in a canon situation - like if HP were to be rewritten (lol if only) with these few chapters squeezed in. It’s also so descriptive that I can picture the scenes as a webcomic. Likely why I’ve drawn for it.
A lot of the other drarry fics, while I do enjoy them a ton too, I either don’t feel as strongly for or it’s all well and good til the last few chapters and I lose interest or any other reason - so few have really carried me to the end, and then on top of that, felt satisfying! So I end up loving parts of it but not all and feel a bit disingenuous about recommending the entire work as a result. The list I gave will still give you a good time though! Enjoy!!

event: plasma confessions, sept 2020 ( part I )
ft. @luckynatured​ & @twilighttheater​
Tumblr media
     Alright. Deep breaths, Rosa...
    It’s been almost two weeks since she last communicated with Hilbert and she’s moped enough ; so much that her normally clueless friend had apparently started to notice. While avoiding him had been a necessary evil while she emotionally recovered and got her head on straight, it only made her miss him that much more. 
    She eyes her phone warily. She’s long since resigned herself to this conversation having a painful outcome ; however, it still needs to happen if she even wants to continue being friends with him... let alone hope for anything beyond that. A glance at her watch reminds her that it’s much too late for any reasonable person to be awake, let alone out and about, but if she waits any longer, she’ll probably lose her nerve.
    Taking a deep breath in, she reaches for her phone.
Tumblr media
[✉] To Hilbert: hey, I know it’s sorta late but... can we talk? like, in person
[✉] To Hilbert: I can meet you somewhere if it makes things easier. 
    Her phone buzzes with a reply just a few minutes later and it rattles her more than she cares to admit. A small part of her — the nervous wreck within her — had been hoping that Hilbert had long since turned in for the night. But apparently, much like his hometown, Hilbert doesn’t sleep. 
[✉] From Hilbert: Sure, I’m open to talk.
[✉] From Hilbert: I’m in Black City if you want to meet around there? It’s close to Undella Town if that makes it easier for you.
    Her flick over to the clock sitting on her nightstand. It would take her far too long to fly to Black City from Village Bridge but Undella would be a good midpoint. Elliot could make that flight in about twenty minutes, maybe even less if the winds are in their favor. Best of all, it’s finally fall, so the beach-side town will be relatively sleepy. If things go south, well... at least they won’t make a scene.
Tumblr media
[✉] To Hilbert: okay, thank you. again, I’m sorry... I know it’s super late.
[✉] To Hilbert: can I ask you to meet me in Undella? otherwise, I won’t be able to make it to Black City ‘til about midnight. I can be there in 20.
    To her chagrin, she finds herself pacing. Clover, who is curled up on a comically large pet bed at the end of Rosa’s footboard, gives her trainer an odd look at the uncharacteristic behavior. Mercifully, though, Hilbert’s reply doesn’t make her wait too long.
[✉] From Hilbert: If I leave now I should be there in 20 to 30 minutes.
[✉] From Hilbert: Depending on how long it takes me to get out of Black City; it’s still kinda active this time of night.
[✉] From Hilbert: Be seeing you! :)
[✉] From Hilbert: Do you mind if I bring Michelle with me? She won’t listen in on our conversation or anything like that. She loves night swimming, so she’ll probably be too occupied to want to listen in anyway.
    Twenty to thirty minutes... even if it was longer, she’d wait for him. If anything, it’ll give her time to steel her nerves. Her hands are trembling so badly, she’d have dropped her phone ages ago if she hadn’t been firmly grasping it in both her hands. She almost felt like an old lady texting.
[✉] To Hilbert: of course I don’t mind! I was planning on bringing at least Elliot with me... let’s meet at the beach in front of the pokécenter, okay? i’ll see you then.
    As soon as she hits SEND, she drops her phone in a panic. Her head spins as her stomach ties up in knots. Shit. Is she going to be able to do this? Frantically, she picks up her phone and haphazardly smashes the keys as she texts the only person who’d understand what she’s feeling right now.
Tumblr media
[✉] To Red: Red, help... I think I fucked up!!!
    She drops her phone, faceplants onto her bed, and screams into her pillow, drawing a startled glance from Clover once more. What are the odds that Red will actually answer her? She didn’t even stop to consider the potential time difference between Johto and Unova... Gods, her brain is too fried to even do math right now—
    After what feels like an eternity ( but was really only about two minutes ), she receives a reply from Red. Apparently, the deity of time is in her favor.
[✉] From Red: Okay first, can you tell me what happened?
Tumblr media
[✉] To Red: I... messaged Hilbert on a whim tonight. asked him to meet up with me so I could tell him about... y’know
[✉] To Red: not the feelings thing, but the other thing
    She hides half her face in one hand, resisting the urge to drag it down her face. Hopefully, Red knows what she means.
[✉] To Red: and now, I’m supposed to meet him in like 20 minutes to talk but I suddenly don’t feel like I can do this
    To her surprise, her friend’s reply comes promptly and in the form of a rapid-fire group of texts.
[✉] From Red: You can, and I know it’s hard to accept but you have to.
[✉] From Red: It’s like we talked about, you just have to get it over with. Because the sooner you do, the sooner you can both move past it and go on with your friendship.
[✉] From Red: but I know that’s much easier said than it is done. It’s going to be hard for you to do and I know it’s going to hurt. 
[✉] From Red: But from what I’ve gathered about the guy so far… I think he’ll end up being glad you told him in the end.
    It’s what she expected to hear... and also the reality slap that she needs right now. Red’s absolutely right. Things just haven’t been the same between her and Hilbert since... well, pretty much the ball at the Hall of Origins, but especially since her conversation with the former Kantonian champion. The secret weighs down on her too much to even carry on with their friendship properly and she knows things won’t regain a sense of normalcy until she’s come clean... as if there’s anything normal about their situation anymore.
[✉] To Red: yeah... I know what the right answer is. I’m just so afraid. he means so much to me, even as just a friend, and I don’t know what I’d do if he were to walk away from me after this.
[✉] To Red: But also... it just doesn’t feel right being close to him and hiding this from him
Tumblr media
    She chews on her bottom lip, contemplating her next message. It’s something she almost accidentally brought up during their last conversation but at the time, it had felt much too heavy, and it would have immediately outed her to Red as well. The situation hasn’t really changed but, fuck it, if she’s going to be sharing secrets tonight, she might as well go all in.
[✉] To Red: can I ask you something, Red?
[✉] To Red: if Serena ever told you that she used to be a part of Team Rocket, like while you were actively fighting against them on your journey... how would you feel about it?
    Well, there goes that.
    It takes a bit for Red’s next reply to come in, so much that her pulse actually spikes when her phone buzzes to life. 
[✉] From Red: Conflicted at first, I’ll admit. I’d wonder why but, personally, the why and how aren’t all that important to me anyway. People end up part of these teams for lots of reasons, and though I do loathe Team Rocket not everyone who is part of it is necessarily a bad person.
[✉] From Red: What would matter to me is what she does despite that old connection to the team I hate, but the problem is already pretty much solved by the key words about all of it: she used to be part of it. Not anymore, the person she was back then is not the same person she is today. With ties cut with Team Rocket in present day and knowing the sort of person she is now, I’d be able to forgive her involvement.
[✉] From Red: I feel like it would speak volumes to me that she would’ve wanted to tell me the truth too even with that history. It shows how much you trust someone, and personally I trust her heavily too. So in the end…
[✉] From Red: It doesn’t change how I feel about her. 
[✉] From Red: So if Hilbert is worth it, it won’t change how he views you either. He’d probably just need time.
    Her eyes widen a bit more with every text. When she had shot off that last loaded text of hers, her expectations of what she’d get back had been very different from what was on her screen now.
    But then again, a small part of her deep down had been hoping that this would be the case. She holds no doubt that Red meant every word he said, though she still can’t help but wonder how much of his response has to do with his feelings for Serena, since that’s an edge she doesn’t have in her own situation. Regardless, the lump in her throat doesn’t seem so hard to swallow around right now.
[✉] To Red: ...I really, truly hope he feels the same way you do about this. i’d like to think that I’m a good person, Red. everything I did was because I wanted to protect pokémon... and I’ve fought tooth and nail to redeem the wrongs that I turned a blind eye on in the past. but of course, I can’t judge myself in the end.
[✉] To Red: my entire life, I’ve been keeping secrets just to save my skin but I don’t want to keep secrets just to keep him. if I can’t be honest with him, I don’t deserve him.
Tumblr media
[✉] To Red: he’s suffered so much at the hands of my old group... some of which I’m surprised he’s shared with me at all. all the more reason why I can’t NOT return that type of honesty.
[✉] To Red: so, I guess... I'm telling him tonight. let’s see where the chips fall.
[✉] To Red: and Red? thank you so much for listening to me. you’re a good friend. :)
    She can’t explain it but she feels more at ease. It’s like all the stress that’s bunched up underneath her shoulders is relieving just a bit. By the time Red’s final barrage of texts finally reach her, she no longer feels like she’s about to lose her mind.
[✉] From Red: I can’t speak for him, but I think he will really. What I had to say applies even if I was just platonic with Serena, surely your friendship with him will be valued just as much. It’s honestly what you deserve, don’t settle for anything less.
[✉] From Red: Bad people don’t fight tooth and nail to right their wrongs like that, owning up to your mistakes honestly takes more effort than it does to just avoid making them in the first place. And people are bound to screw up, it’s a bump in the road. You’ll get through this Rosa.
 [✉] From Red: And it’s no problem, I’m on your side through this and I’ll help you get through it if I can at all. Keep me posted on how it goes if you can, okay? But no pressure if you can’t either, and good luck anyway. 🍀
Tumblr media
    Red probably doesn’t know it, but that small four-leaf clover at the end of his text means the world to her. Hopefully, it’ll be her good-luck charm going into this conversation.  
    Well, here it goes. All she has is her courage and a four-leaf clover to get her through this but at least, at the end of the night, she’ll be able to say she did it.

What are three names you like that start with the same letter as your fist name? Just any variation of Rose, really. Rose, Rosie, Rosalie, Rosalia...I’m not so big on other R names.
How old will you turn on your next birthday? I’ll be 26 but I’ve got around nearly a whole year to go til then.
What are three things you like about your birth month (besides it being the month your birthday is in)? It’s the month I became ARMY, it’s Cooper’s birth month, and the Holy Week lets us have 5-6 days off work.
...and what are three things you dislike about it? IT’S HOT and I can’t think of any other reason. It just gets so unfairly hot.
List three celebrities that are the same height as you. Google tells me Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande, and Reese Witherspoon. The first two I’ve kind of known for a while, but I didn’t know Reese is so tiny?????????
Are you happy with your height, or do you wish you were shorter or taller? Why? I’m fine with being 5′1″. It’s pretty average (for girls) where I’m from, and in fact tall people are such a rarity that people would end up staring at you and pointing out how tall you are every chance they get as if you don’t already know – and I don’t want tallness to be a personality trait of mine hahahaha.
List three celebrities who have the same natural hair color as you. Idk man all the Filams, they’ve all got black hair. Vanessa Hudgens, Darren Criss, Bruno Mars.
Is your hair color natural right now, or is it dyed? It’s dyed but it looks gross now. I’ll dye it back to purple a few days before my trip so my vacation photos can turn out cute.
Which family member did you inherit your hair color from? Doesn’t really work that way with Filipino DNA. You get one choice – black, lol.
List three things in nature that are the same color as your eyes. 👀 Soil, tree trunks, mud.
Are you happy with your current weight, or do you wish you weighed more or less? I’m okay with it, I find it pretty proportionate to my height though I am prone to falling underweight every now and then.
If applicable, how many pounds do you want to lose? I’ve never wanted or striven to lose weight.
How many years has it been since you were last a student enrolled in school? 🏫 It’ll be three years this year.
What was your favorite class in high school? History :)
Section 2 - Family 
(A/N: What was Section 1...?)
Do you have kids, and if so, what are their names? No kids.
Are you closer to your mom or your dad? Dad. He’s away more, but he’s also the easier to talk and relate to.
How many sisters do you have? One.
How many brothers do you have? Also one.
If you had a twin sister, what would she be named? No idea but that’s a good question; I’d love to get my parents’ thoughts on that. How many dogs have you had in your lifetime? 🐶 We’ve had three, including the two we currently have. :)
How many cats have you had in your lifetime? 🐈 One, Arlee.
Do you prefer dogs or cats? Dogs.
How many dogs have you had that probably would have been diagnosed with ADHD had they been human? What a random question, lol. Idk probably Cooper, but only in certain scenarios. He’s considerably chilled out over the last year.
What is your favorite dog breed? Aspin, if they count.
Who in your family is or was the same height as you? Not sure. Everyone is ever so slightly taller than me LOL
Where was your dad born? The Philippines, I’m not specifying where.
Where was your mom born? ^ Same.
Where were you born? Manila.
Using a flag emoji, which country were you born in? 🇵🇭
...and which country do you currently live in? 🇵🇭
Using flag emojis, what is your nationality? 🇵🇭
Using a flag emoji, what is the origin of your last name? 🇪🇸🇵🇹
Have you ever met anyone unrelated to you that had the same last name as you? Yes. It’s not a super popular surname, but it does come around every once in a while. It’s not entirely obscure.
How many sister-in-laws do you have? Well in an arbitrary sense, one. She’s technically going to be a cousin-in-law as she’s my cousin’s fiancée, but that cousin is much like an older brother so I usually consider and mention her as a future sister-in-law.
How many brother-in-laws do you have? None.
How many nieces do you have? None.
How many nephews do you have? Also none. My generation of siblings and cousins is taking it super slow haha.
How many of your grandparents are still living? Three of them. I lost my maternal grandpa in 2015.
As far as you know, what types of cancer are in your family? No clue. My family doesn’t like talking about the disease and just refers to it as ‘c-word,’ and never goes into specifics, so I don’t actually know if it runs in the family and if it does, what type/s.
Section 3 - Talents
What are three things you are good at? Writing, researching, reading people.
Can you touch your nose to your tongue? 👅👃 Nope. I’ve tried too many times to try it again just now, but I know I can’t.
Can you wiggle your ears? 👂 No and I’ve only ever known one person who can – my uncle.
Can you lick your elbow? I can’t.
Can you do the splits? Nah. I tried to be able to do it as a kid, but the skill isn’t for me.
Can you bend over and touch your toes? I also can’t, unless they’re far enough apart.
Are you double-jointed? I’m not.
Can you bend your tongue into a clover? ☘️ 👅 No. I can do the U-shape but that’s it, no other shapes.
What are three of your favorite creative hobbies? Can past hobbies count? I used to do embroidery and coloring :) These days I’ve been making bracelets – I plan to give them out as freebies during the Yoongi concert and it’s been more fun than I expected! I’ve currently made 45 bracelets but I’ve got a ways to go since I actually plan on giving out 100. Maybe even more if I happen to have some time (and beads) left. But with only around a little over two weeks left before the show, we’ll have to wait and see. Are you good at taking pictures? 📸 My camera is good at taking photos, but I’m not. I never did get the hang of angles and photo editing and such.
What are three things you've been complimented on? Writing, work ethic, speaking skills.
What are three of your favorite things to do? WRITING, watching documentaries and vlogs, going to coffee shops.
What is your dream job? Doing PR for a company/brand I admire.
...and are you currently working in your dream job? Not exactly, no. It’s the same job, just not *where* I particularly want to be.
Section 4 - Religion and Spirituality
Do you consider yourself spiritual? No.
Do you consider yourself religious? Not at all.
What do you think of when you hear the word "religious"? Rules.
What do you think of when you hear the word "spirituality"? Those people who are into yoga and crystals.
Do you have a positive or negative view of the word "religion"? Mostly negative. Then again my experience has been largely around Christianity which is the main contributor to the way I view religion. I can’t really speak for how I view other religions; the topic in general is just so broad.
Do you have a positive or negative view of the word "spiritual"? Neutral with a dash of, “I really don’t buy it.” Who is the most spiritual person you know? Some celebrity I got to work with for one of my previous accounts. I once had dinner with her and she went on and on about her crystals and meditation and getting in touch with her soul, and I just had to politely nod my head and go “Ooh” and “Ahh” for like 3 hours. Don’t get me wrong lol it was a genuinely good conversation but not nearly enough to convince me still.
When was the last time you stepped foot inside of a church? ⛪️ Two Sundays ago. We attend church weekly, but I say two Sundays ago because I happened to be at a work event last weekend.
Do you regularly attend church? Why or why not? ⛪️ Yes. My mom is religious and takes the whole family to church. On my part though I ditched religion and stopped listening to the service since I was 10.
Have you ever been to a mosque? 🕌 I haven’t, but when I went to Malaysia which I believe is largely Muslim, I learned about the concept of prayer rooms and found it very fascinating. That was my biggest takeaway when we went to Legoland hahahaha it wasn’t even any of the rides or the LEGO exhibits :((
Have you ever been to a synagogue? 🕍 Nope. Judaism is relatively weak in this part of the world, so haven’t had a lot of exposure besides its ties to Christianity.
What is the symbol for the religion or spirituality that you practice, if applicable? I don’t practice Christianity but considering it’s my religion at the very least in the legal sense – cross.
What is your favorite religious holiday? I don’t have any.
If applicable, does your faith mean a lot to you? Not applicable.
Do you ever feel embarrassed or hesitant to tell others what you believe, for fear of being judged? No, I’ve never found it difficult to say I’m atheist.
Do you have the same worldview as your parents? Probably not.
If applicable, what is your favorite version of the Bible to read? 📖 Idk I never paid attention to the different versions.
Have you ever read the entire Bible? I tried when I was much younger but I got bored a few books into the Old Testament. My memory of the four Gospels is pretty sharp, though, considering we read them daily throughout elementary and high school.
...and if so, how many times have you done it? I’ve never read the Bible in its entirety but as for the Gospels I went over those every single day for like 10 years.
If applicable, what are three of your favorite Christian songs? I don’t have any particular favorites but I remember liking those where you can do a second voice just because they’re fun to do and makes you feel like you’re good at singing hahaha.
Have you ever attended a Christian school? 🏫 I went to Catholic school for 14 years, yes.
How often do you pray? 🙏 Never.
Do you own a set of prayer beads? 📿 You mean like a rosary? No.
Have you ever danced in church? 💃 I have not.
Have you ever been baptized, and if so, where and how were you baptized? 🌊 Yup, I received a Catholic baptism when I was a little over a month old.
For a church, what is your favorite denomination? I don’t have a favorite denomination. Do people have favorites for this sort of thing?
Have you ever been filled with the Holy Spirit? Uh...
Do you believe that speaking in tongues is a real thing? No. I never did know what that means.
Do you have any art on your walls that has a Scripture on it, and if so, which one? No, but we have a portrait of the Last Supper in the kitchen and a crucifix in each room.
Section 5 - Politics
How many presidential elections have you voted in? 🗳️ Twice! First in 2016, then in 2022.
Do you support the First Amendment? (The First Amendment gives us the freedom of religion and freedom of speech). The what?
What is your country's flag? The Philippine flag. White side triangle, three yellow stars and a sun, blue over red.
Would you ever consider going into politics? Kind of. I very briefly considered becoming a lawyer before I realized how much I hate debating and how I’m not likely to survive recitals and regular humiliation from law professors.
Do you engage in political discussions on social media? If I absolutely give a shit about whatever issue is at hand, yes. I’ve gotten into discussions with cousins with whom I didn’t necessarily agree.
Are you happy with the current state of your nation? The current president is the son of That Dictator, I could never be happy about it. But apart from him, the country has long been rampant with corruption anyway so there was never anything to be happy about in the first place.
I have a friend who thinks the government is going to kill us all. Do you believe the government is going to kill us all? I believe they are very well capable of doing so. They have done it in the past, what’s going to stop them from doing it again?
Section 6 - Health
How many different medications do you normally take daily? 💊 I don’t take any.
What is the worst side effect or withdrawal effect that you've ever experienced from a medication? Feeling like death after each of my Covid vaccine doses and boosters. I felt like my skin was glass so I couldn’t move for like 12 hours.
Which medication(s) do you hate the most, and why? I never really hated any that I’ve had to take.
Which medication(s) do you feel have helped you the most, and why? I remember when I had my UTI in 2020 and the first doctor I went to (also a family friend) prescribed me medicine that did not do JACK SHIT, and I continued feeling like a corpse in the 2-3 days I was taking the medication. Angela’s mom who’s a pediatrician was worried sick about me and went ahead and gave me a different prescription, which worked in LITERALLY like half an hour. That was the closest to magic I’ve ever felt lmao; I continue to feel so grateful to her for the help.
What health conditions (that you know of) do you have? Scoliosis.
What are you allergic to? Grass, if anything. My skin feels irritated by it in the most random scenarios.
How many different primary care doctors have you had in your lifetime? None. I always go to different ones.
Have you ever received a dismissal letter from a doctor's office? Nope.
Is your current doctor a male or female? I don’t have a main one.
Do you prefer male or female doctors? Why? I don’t care for the most part.
Have you ever been refused treatment at a doctor's office or hospital? 🏥 No.
What is the most significant health issue you are dealing with right now? Probably my scoliosis.
What, if any, are some health issues you've had in the past that you don't deal with anymore? None. Most of my issues have been short-term, like when I had low platelet count and had to be admitted overnight.
How is your mental health? How has it been lately? It’s stable, to be generous about it. I’m just relieved to be no longer experiencing breakdowns and panic attacks which used to be an everyday thing.
