The boys are gamers this isnt news so here. me. out.
The boys are gaming but reader wants cuddles/attention (could be both *don't look at me im touch starved*) but the boys are busy playing in their pc and so the only compromisable solution is that sitting on their lap at first watching and cheering them on then ending in you sleeping 🥹 AIXBKSBDJS CAN YOU IMAGINE FALLING ASLEEP LIKE THAT, HEAD ON THEIR SHOULDERS THEY LOOK AT YOUR SLEEPING STATE, SMILE ANS KISS YOUR SHOULDER OR SIDE OF YOUR HEAD
Tumblr media
me @ you reading this ask because HOW DARE YOU PUT THIS IMAGERY IN MY HEAD??? i was going to write this out later but i was just HIT with the feels so i wrote something quickly for each of these you ABSOLUTE MONSTER–(jk ily this was fun to explore thank you i hope this hits you in the feels just as you did to me with your ask >:))
Tumblr media
[🌸] close to you w/ txt
✿ pairing: ot5 x reader / fluff 🌸 / idol!txt / non.idol!you ✿ mini-fics with each member for the same situation / less than 400 words for each member / altogether, word count: 1,090 words ✿ in which you decide to be close to them while they play their games (and you fall asleep on them...) [masterlist 🌸] / other members under the cut!
[🐰] soobin  soobin might act like he's annoyed initially but deep down, he's as addicted to your touch as you are with his. he appreciates how you let out small sounds of excitement each time he takes down the enemy and it boosts his ego. the second he feels your head resting on his, tilted back as you sink into his embrace, he knows you've fallen asleep despite the fact he's still playing his game so intensely. he chuckles quietly when there's a two-minute break on the screen before the next round continues and he turns the cheek to see how your jaw is slightly slacked, eyelids fluttered shut but your hands hugging one side of his arm along with the armrest next to it. he shifts his arm a bit closer to you and watches how your hands move along with it. your body grows towards the direction of one side of his arm where you can hold it nearer to you and he doesn't resist the urge to reach for his phone conveniently nearby to take a couple of pictures. when there's a signal in his headphones that the next round is about to begin, he plants a kiss to wherever of you that's closest to him (in this case, in this position, it was your neck) before he resumes his game.
[🦊] yeonjun yeonjun tries his best not to tease you too much even though you can tell he's very pleased knowing that you're willing to sit through with him just to be close to him. his serotonin boosts past the roof whenever you let out praises of how well he's doing and he reciprocates it by squeezing your waist, kissing your shoulder, and saying his tagline: "because i have my lucky charm here with me." somewhere along the line when he feels your weight shifting on him and you turn to rest your cheek on his shoulder, he has an inkling you've fallen asleep with your arms around his waist, resting by your side. he has a clear view of you resting peacefully on him that he doesn't dare move another muscle unless necessary. if that means he'll sacrifice his score in the game, so be it. he'll be very chuffed to have you like this that he'll ignore his game half the time just to look at you. (it ends fairly quickly and you find yourself in bed with him by your side; he'll claim that he was tired but really, he just wants to rest with you in his arms properly)
[🐯] beomgyu  beomgyu is more than willing to have you sit on his lap as he plays his game. he's super enthusiastic about every question you have and even pushes you to try to play the game if you show interest. but when all you admit to him is that you just wanna be close to him and be near him, he'll be a little too cocky for his own good (or the softest marshmallow, there's no in-between). whenever you cheer him on that he's doing well, he won't really respond but deep down, he remembers every single compliment you give him or respond through actions by kissing your shoulder without tearing his gaze from the screen. he notices when you're growing tired as you start to lean back and your head rests on one of his shoulders. he slyly dips down a bit, giving you easier access to rest your head and soon he feels you lulling to sleep as your body grows heavier on top of him, letting go of your conscious. he sneaks a peek at you when his round ends and he smiles widely, leaning in to kiss your cheek and brush your hair back before he continues his game.
[🐿] taehyun  taehyun offers to stop his game but when he sees that you're adamant to let him continue, he gives in with okay, okay, get over here. he does his best to make sure you're comfortable and when you are, that's when he plays his game while trying not to check on you too much. it makes you chuckle with the way he's attentive without looking, that you'd need to keep a hand on his face to make sure he stops turning the cheek and focus on your game, tae. he retaliates by trying to bite your hand and it continues like that for a good moment before he notices your hand isn't by his face anymore and your head is now resting on his shoulder. you shift a little so your face buries against his neck, sitting sideways a little so you can hug him and this boy has literal hearts in his eyes at the sight when he pauses the game to take in your sleeping figure on him. he half-debates bringing you to bed or staying put but quickly makes his decision by staying like that so he doesn't wake you up. he continues playing (even though he might lose a couple of rounds when he keeps turning to look at you) his game, occasionally pressing a kiss to your cheek whenever he feels like it.
[🐧] kai kai is more than welcoming with his arms spread open, putting his plushie to the side so his lap is now free for you to sit on. he's literally walking on cloud nine when he sees you grabbing the plushie to hug as you sit on him to get comfortable that he can't hold back he puts his arms around you. it takes him a good minute of persuading before he gets back to playing when all he wants to do now is hug you. he hooks his chin over your shoulder (a headrest, he calls it) and keeps his hand on the keyboard and mouse to continue playing his game. you chuckle whenever he nuzzles the side of his head against the side of yours and it makes you squeeze the plushie with one hand, the other lapping over one of his arms to soothingly rub shapes on his skin. he knows you've fallen asleep when the grip you have on him loosens and you rest your head against the side of his. he sits back and watches as your body follows him and the slight shift of your body on him lets him know you're deep in sleep. he turns a little, brushing his lips against your temple to press a kiss before he resumes his game; making his mind that once he finishes this game, he'll bring you to bed to sleep more comfortably.

Candy Man
Tumblr media
Seated at one of the benches, gripping my phone with both hands on my lap, my accessories clinking together as I fidgeted. Couples continued to walk past me, oblivious to anything else besides each other. I sighed.
February 14, 2016, 2:46 pm. Sunday at a park. And on Valentine's Day, nonetheless.
Forty-six minutes have passed since our scheduled time to meet. My “date” hasn’t arrived yet. He hasn’t responded to the message I sent him fifteen minutes ago. Nor to the other messages I sent him before I even got here. He hasn’t picked up my calls either, and it took all of my strength to try calling him, my hands shaking as I did. I figured I’d give him a little more time, he could have been in an emergency and had no time to answer me but..
No.
No… Face it Rinne. He bailed out on you. Stop making excuses for people. Why do you do this to yourself?
I stared into the crowd of people walking past me, not really focusing on anything, just gazing at nothing. The background fades into a blur as I entertain my thoughts and a hand comes up to my mouth on instinct, squeezing my cheeks together in an attempt to collect my thoughts.
What went wrong this time? Was I too forward? Did they actually come here, see me and decided I wasn’t worth the shot? Was it my outfit that looks nothing like what I wear on my personal social media? Was this experiment even worth it? That if I presented myself differently compared to my social media, I can gauge how interested they are to pursue a relationship with me? Wait, it’s reasonable, right? Not everyone even actually posts all of their pictures on the internet. And these are the usual clothes I wear when I feel like spending time and effort to look how I like… Why are they not here? I thought things were going well. We talked about and planned this date a week ago and…
Out of the blur of the background a heart-shaped lollipop meticulously held up by someone’s thumb and forefinger comes into view and I snap back into focus, not even realizing I’ve been staring into space, zoning out.
I blink a few times, looking up from the hand with which the candy extended out of and I see a young man wearing a white long-sleeved shirt and blue jeans, with wide piercing dark eyes set on a pale face. His thick hair stuck out on the ends and it shifted ever so slightly as he leaned towards my direction. I was so taken aback by his motion that I just noticed how he had dark shadows under his eyes when I looked up at him again.
“Hi, I saw you staring and judging by the way you're holding on to your phone anticipating a reply, you look like you could use something sweet.”
My mouth hangs open as he speaks in an oddly monotonous cadence.
“I was- Pardon?”
“Sugar is known to boost one’s mood due to the fact that consuming it increases serotonin, a neurotransmitter that regulates it. Please, I insist.” He reaches the candy out to me again, beckoning me to take it. I gingerly bring my hand up towards him to hold the candy by the stick. Once he was sure that I had a firm grip on it, he lets go and proceeds to take the space on the bench right beside me. But he doesn’t sit. He leaves his sneakers on the ground and brings his feet up on the bench, his knees pressed against his chest. Then, he takes something out of his pocket, another confectionery? Oh, fruit roll-ups. Strawberry fruit roll-ups. He daintily shreds the wrapper open using only his thumb and forefinger on each hand and proceeds to take a bite out of it.
I caught myself staring and tried to recover my senses by twirling the heart-shaped lollipop as I held it. “Um, thank you for this.”
“You’re welcome,” he answers while chewing. “There was a man giving them out to people who didn’t come with a date.”
“Ouch,” My brow furrows in pained amusement. “Adding salt to the wound, aren’t you?”
“Just stating the facts. Most people would have been offended by me pointing out their companionless state but you seem to be taking it well.”
Staring at the candy I received, I replied.
“What good would it do to me if I got offended by it? I’m already quite frustrated with today’s events, I don’t feel like entertaining another negative emotion.” I turn towards him and find him scanning me from head to toe, the fruit roll-up hanging by his lips as he chews the rest of it up to his mouth.
“I can see how your fashion sense could intimidate men with a lower IQ,” he speaks as he chews.  “You should filter your dating pool better.”
“Perceptive, I see. I guess I was being obvious,” I chuckled. “Trust me, it’s filtered enough. Although this time, I did try to cast my net a little wider by considering seeing someone recommended to me by a friend.”
“So, I am right. You got stood up by your date.”
A laugh escapes my lips as I turn to my side to look at him. “Yea, you are. And on Valentine’s Day of all days, too.”
“How very unfortunate. I suppose your date lacked the integrity to carry through the plans you’ve previously made and have agreed on.” He takes the rest of the fruit roll up out of the wrapper and pops it into his mouth. “If I may be bold, I’d say you’ve dodged a bullet.”
“I suppose I have. Hold up, I’m going to block them now.” I put the lollipop in my mouth so I could use both of my hands to scroll through my phone and block the guy. Good riddance to bad rubbish, I thought to myself. Oh wow, that’s a strong strawberry flavor.
“A good decision. I firmly believe that sincerity is essential between two people who plan to pursue a relationship with each other. If one cannot reciprocate nor hold themselves accountable for their errors, it’s just going to cause problems in the long run. It’s only rational.”
“It is, it is,” I say with the lollipop in my mouth, removing it so I could say more. “ Are you here just to see the sights? You don’t strike me as a person who has a date.” I teased.
“There’s plenty of limited-edition candy during the celebration of Valentine’s Day. I, for one, am fond of all the strawberry flavored confections and how they come in more interesting shapes. That is all.”
“You sure do like sweets, huh?” I looked at the heart shaped lollipop on my hand. “And yeah, you’re right,  there are more ways to spend Valentine’s Day than just going out on a date.”
He stared at me with his keen, dark eyes and even though they were quite intense, I couldn’t help but smile at him.
“Again, thank you for this! And uh, just to be clear, I wasn’t staring at you. I was zoning out.”
He seemed to be surprised with this confession, evident by the slight widening of his eyes, like he raised his eyebrows that were somehow… nonexistent? Huh…
“Oh, is that so? And here I thought you were staring at me out of your lonesomeness and jarring lack of confectionery despite it being Valentine’s. Forgive me for imposing and taking your time.”
“No, no! Don’t worry about it, in fact…”
The heart shaped candy glistens as I twirl the stick between my fingers, a smile playing on my lips as I purse them together before I continue my thought.
“This has, indeed, boosted my mood. Thank you so much.” I looked back at the strange, yet charming young man, beaming at him. His sharp eyes, accentuated with the shadows under them, seemed to relax as he stared at me in response, now with a thumb pressed to his lips.
“You know, it’s such a shame your date didn’t proceed with his decision to go out with you today. I would date you.”
The way he said something quite sweet in such a monotonous voice caused me to laugh, my shoulders bouncing in glee.
“Why thank you, but I think I’m gonna spend the rest of this day with a friend. I’m closing my dating book for now at least. Although…” I pressed the back of my fingers to my chin.
“I am compelled to give you something back for this lollipop.”
“You are? Hmm… I actually wouldn’t mind receiving anything of equal value.”
I twirled the heart-shaped lollipop between my fingers for a moment, thinking of what to give to him. Of course, giving him money would be weird and would make our encounter awfully transactional, so I figured I could do the next best thing.
Smoothing out my skirt I got up from my side of the bench and walked over to him. He kept his eyes trained on me the entire time, his thumb still pressed to his lips.
It was honestly adorable seeing his mostly impassive demeanor break slightly when I laid a hand on his shoulder and leaned closer to him, planting a kiss on his cheek.
When I pulled away, I realized my lipstick wasn’t as “transfer-proof” as advertised, leaving a bright red kiss mark on his pale cheek. He sits sort of frozen in place wide-eyed as he brings a hand up to where I kissed him.
“Oh, shoot, and it was supposed to be transfer-proof… Oh well, at least now you'll give everyone else who sees you today the impression that you weren't lonely on Valentine's,” I chuckled.
“Are you sure I can’t take you out to dinner?”
He asks, his expression seemingly more excited.
“It’s fine, really. Besides, I got a friend I have to call and demand an apology from since she was the one that recommended I go on a date with the guy.”
I bring my free hand up to my face, squeezing my cheeks together as I take a deep breath.
“You know, if things were different, I would go out with you.”
“You would?”
“Yea, I would. Maybe if we meet again next time.”
His eyes light up at my statement and as I was about to add more to what I just said, my phone rings.
“Oh shoot, that’s the friend I just mentioned. Anyway, thanks again for keeping me company.”
I smile and wave the candy at him before popping it into my mouth to answer my phone, walking away.
“Hikari,” I greeted the caller, taking the lollipop out of my mouth again to talk to the caller. 
“So I guess you found out he bailed on me?... You knew from the start??? Then-”
Resisting the urge to yell at the phone, I inhaled deeply then looked at the heart-shaped lollipop on my hand.
“You’re lucky there was someone kind enough to…”
My eyes widened as the realization hit me like a ton of bricks.
 “Oh holy shit, I never asked what his name was!”
By the time I turned around to look where I came from to at least get a glimpse of where he was headed, there was no trace of him. I had already walked a considerable distance, too. The caller’s voice snaps me back to the conversation and to the heart-shaped lollipop on my other hand.
“Sorry, I’m still here. Don’t worry,  I’ll tell you about a ‘Candy Man’ when we meet.”

i saw u did lemon dating hcs can you do the same but for Tangerine?🫶🏼
I really shouldn’t be doing this at 7am when I have a long af day ahead of me but my serotonin levels are way too high to sleep away these thoughts so, baby, I gotchu.
What it’s like to date Tangerine // HC
Warnings: harsh language, mentions of guns/gun violence.
Pairings: Tangerine x fem!reader
Baby boy got those klepto hands as we all know but ever since he met you, it has definitely gotten worse; but in his mind it is for the better because anything for you.
When you first started dating, he would give you a book in every date and then next date he would ask your thoughts on it. It would take up a good chunk of your conversations so he knew it was a good way to get to know your mind.
He likes to grip your thigh every opportunity he has. When you guys are in the car or at any event, always one hand squeezing or rubbing up and down on them. He especially enjoys it when there is no fabric in the way.
Tangerine is a sucker for head rubs. But if you tug at his hair, baby, he will try his best not to groan; but that’s mostly when you are in public. He would give you the biggest wide eye stare as almost a warning of what you’re doing to him. Although, when it happens in private, he doesn’t hold back one bit.
“Oh fuck, darling. Why’d you go and do that?” he would say before gripping the hands, that were once tangled on his curls, pin them up against a wall above your head.
He also loves to give praise and bro praise plus that accent is just heaven on earth right there. “So fucking good for me,” he would usually say, combined with his large hand stroking your head.
Tangerine knows how much you love his accent so he likes to be close to your ear every time he speaks to you. Even if it is simple things like saying, “Can you grab some eggs on the way home, luv?” he would say it in almost a hushed tone, right by the side of your face.
But don’t get me wrong, he only does that when you’re having conversations between just the two of you. When Lemon is involved, he will be his very much over the top self. He is naturally much louder and condescending than the average person.
“Lemon, if you explain to my girl how much of a Percy she is, one more time, I’m going to bash my head through a fucking wall.”
Thing is, he can also tell that in the right moments, you love it when he turns up the volume.
A good portion of when you see his more psychopathic side is when he gets jealous. “I’m going to fucking shove my gun up that bellend’s ass cheeks if he thinks he could get away with chatting up to MY lady.” He always gets so red and heated with his veins protruding and all. But you can usually calm him down with a some kisses and nibbles on his ear.
He really is a total softy for you. Even so, he still manages to be the most dominant man you’ve ever met in your whole life.
“I got you some chocolates because I know you’ve been feeling a little under the weather so you are going to sit your pretty little arse on the couch and enjoy it, alright, babe?” Like ugh soooo demanding but soooo soft at the same time!!
daddy… no further questions…
He also enjoys to just lay back on his elbows and watch you do anything. Cooking, getting a drink, dancing, changing (especially changing). He gives you such a stinging stare of lust no matter what, and it boosts your ego every time you notice.
a/n: i am so obsessed with this man; i swear my mind can put him in any scenario. but for now i gotta exist in a world where I have to get my headlight fixed before i go to work so i hope you enjoyed! ❤️

Can I please request the Heartslabyul boys reacting to you ‘forgetting’ to give them a good morning kiss?
Where's my kiss ?
| twisted wonderland !
Tumblr media
⌗:, a/n: good morning kisses are a no from me if I'm not in the mood. ain't nobody wanna give someone a stinky ass kiss 😭 but I'll do it for the sake of this fanfic <3
⌗:, warning: fluff
⌗:, pairings: ace, deuce, trey, riddle, cater w/ gn!reader
Tumblr media
ACE TRAPPOLA
You always give him a goodnight, good morning and a goodbye kiss. you've never forgotten to kiss him. if there are days when you haven't kissed him he will demand them no matter what the situation and you have to listen to him whims.
today you had other plans. what if you don't kiss him? you couldn't resist yourself after seeing other people do it too.
so here you are getting out of bed sneakily after not giving him a kiss. you went with your daily chores after you saw a dishelved ace telling you "Where's my kiss? :("
he looked like a three year old after having their candy stolen. you were trying your best not to laugh at his state but he caught onto your lips curling up.
how DARE YOU
he made it a point to you to always kiss him so why were you depriving him of his sole way of getting his daily dose of serotonin?
he annoyed you to have you kiss him and ofcourse you obliged! you just can't miss the feeling of his soft cheeks against your lips as you smother his face with kisses.
DEUCE SPADE
he is such a sweet boyfriend that he actually got really hesitant to ask you why you did not kiss him good morning. he thought maybe you were angry at him for whatever he has done and he got really tensed because he couldn't remember what he did to annoy you enough to not even kiss him :(
he slowly hugged you from behind and started apologising like crazy and he even said "love I'm sorry for what I've done I really am but please don't hate me too much to not even kiss me"
deuce may put up a good behaviour infront of others showing how perfect he can be but his behaviour of being like that absolutely melts in your arms when you kiss him. he is very different from how he shows himself to be in front of the public eye.
you weren't answering because you were trying your best to hold in your laughter but he caught on the way your shoulders were shaking and you definitely were not crying because he knows your acts and behaviourisms like the back of his hand
he is so mad at you now for trying to prank him like that
"I can't believe you [name] I'm going"
"WAIT COME BACK BABY IM SORRY"
He didn't reject your kisses and daily dose of affection.
TREY CLOVER
he is not thinking that much about how you 'forgot' to give him his morning kiss after waking up in his arms after cuddling so much with him last night
he knew it was another one of your shenanigans so he wasn't quote bothered by it until he has had enough
your kisses are like a lucky charm to him even if they may have some kind of placebo effect on him he still believes it's your kisses that makes him have a good day.
at the end of the day he returned with most of his energy exhausted because he had a pretty bad day because of you forgot to give him something.
"baby I know what you are trying to do...please kiss me I can't do it anymore"
you kisses him on his forehead, cheeks, eyelids, and lips and he wants more now.
you two shared kisses and cuddles for an hour until he has had his fill.
poor baby held whatever piece of patience he had throughout the day until he got to you.
RIDDLE ROSEHEARTS
he wakes up with your morning kisses but today he woke up a bit late because you did not kiss him
he was so agitated because he was getting late for his class by 2 minutes !!
how could you do this to him !
off with your head /j
he was genuinely offended and annoyed because you did not give him his energy boost for the day
he flipped at whoever crossed his way because you just committed a big crime
ace and deuce were scared of him getting so angry so they brought you infront of him to take matters into your own hands and they were too afraid of doing something that might make him render them immobile or something.
they left the school ground to leave you two alone to do your bidding...more like get his emotions checked
a kiss on the cheek was enough to turn his full face blushing red like the tart he was eating.
he coughed and said blush still evident on his face "I will accept this kiss as a form of your apology towards the behaviour showed me today...don't do it again [name]...please"
you heard most of what he said but that "please" was so soft cause he mumbled it but you caught onto what he said.
with a cheeky grin you continued painting his face with kisses
ace and deuce heaved a sigh of relief as their dorm leader finally isn't angry anymore
CATER DIAMOND
I definitely did not forget about cater
Usually you two have a kiss fight(?) in the morning. the first one who wakes the other one up with kisses has to have the other give them kisses for the whole day including cuddles and a whole lot of affection
usually you would win but today you were feeling devious so you got out of bed without kissing him. he was a bit awake but his eyes bust open when you cooly opened the door and went your merry way
he sat up straight and grabbed his phone ready to cancel you out on social media
how could you do this to him
so he pestered you throughout the day
he told you and practically gave you a presentation on WHY you should kiss him
you were soon growing tired
you wanted to prank him but looks like it's an uno reverse moment now
you finally gave in and kissed him which shut his yapping.
he was silent for a while but he soon recovered and returned your kiss

Ok so hear me out…what if there was a gym au with all the boys…🤔
You meet Joel in the weights section. He helps you with your form and then helps you with your aches afterwards 🤭
Javi P is a cardio king, he’s gotta be able to run after all. You meet him at the treadmills but he has a better suggestion for some cardio you can do together 🫠
Dieter is in a dance or aerobics class. He’s good with a rhythm, and it always boosts his serotonin. He takes you out dancing afterwards and we know where that leads 😌
Ezra is doing yoga. He loves the stretch. He helps you perfect your downward facing dog form 😏
I can’t think of any other boys rn but…what if…what if I’ve been thinking too much about this…what if I opened a new doc…
GIDEON?!?!?!?!
*raven.exe has stopped working*
I'M DEAD???
Me @ this:
Tumblr media
Okokok so hold on lemme catch up with your big beautiful brain!!
Joel is DEFINITELY weights. He's hovering behind you, acting as your spotter, and then he puts his gigantic warm hands all over you: "correcting your form darlin' ". he chats a mile a dozen about his girls as he distracts you while you wheeze your way through the last set! he blushes all the way to the tips of his ears trying to ask you out before he absolutely destroys your 🐈 in the car???
Omg YOU DID NOT JUST BRING SWEATY JAVI P INTO THIS IM CRYINGGGGGGGGG. I WILL DO CARDIO WITH HIM ANY DAY !! (Idk if i can keep up but i bet he can make me 😉😉) ok but he gets on the elliptical with that tight butt and he definitely catches you staring SHAMELESSLY.
Oooooh but you're so right about Dieter?? You know those Zumba or pole dancing classes??? YEP THAT'S WHERE DIETER IS. the man can move his hips!! He will absolutely one hundred percent give u a lap dance. Idec that im so far off your idea rn i just want his sweaty curls on top of me.
I haven't really dipped my toe in the Ezra fandom yet, but that blonde streak of hair is very distracting. And that voice 🥵🥵🥵 yes please bend me in a pretzel sir 🫠🫠🫠
What if you opened the google doc... what if i wrapped u in a blanket burrito and made out with you (with consent ofc)... what if i fed u snacks... what if i proposed marriage..

Kinou Nani tabeta. aka My Heart is Full aka I suck at titles
Let me just say before anything else. This is not a recap or a review. This is me feeling the need to write down my feelings because they are pouring out of me. This is more a personal note than anything else so skip it if that's not your thing.
I always watch this show on saturday mornings, with my coffee and breakfast, because it gives me a boost for the weekend. And I wanted to postpone the final episode as much as possible but I just couldn't. I gave in.
Second FYI. This will probably be incoherent and a mess because that's how I feel. Also, this fucking menopause (surgical, don't give me too many extra years) is really making a mess of my emotional state this week, so I'm all over the place. Also I might've had some wine. Also this may be a bit long. I think that's it.
How I got here
So, I've loved cinema since I was like 7. (yeah I'm going really back in time) Because my mom like films, she dragged to the cinema even when I was way too young for whatever was on. [ Fun Side note- The first film that I saw in the cinema was Bram Stoker's Dracula, when I was like 6, and my mum got into an argument with the cinema employee because" I am her mother, and I'll decide what she can or can't watch"and so I did watch it.]
So I always loved watching films, talking about them and eventually went to uni to learn how to make them. During that time, I went through a phase (which happened to a couple other people in my school) where I kinda got emotionally detached from the stories. I could only see the camera angles, the lighting, the editing, etc.
When I was done with uni, and had decided that editing was my favourite thing I started doing a bit of work in editing, mostly online stuff and a couple of ads in London, and 3 years later I was done. Obviously there were life factors and health factors that contributed to this, but still I left it all behind.
Then, I quickly went back to being able to watch stories with all the emotions.
Let's skip forward to present day.
Kinou Nani Tabeta? feel in my lap by way of my very first BL. Seven Days. I watched those films and went through all the emotions and needed more. More of that serotonin please.
So I got in research mode and that's when I found this wonderful world of BL and eventually this show.
Now, a little bit more about me, just in case you aren't sick of me talking about myself. I'm not a jolly person. If you asked anyone that knows me irl, they would describe me as someone who always thinks the sky is falling. However, I also love a lot of things deeply, and when it comes to things that I can't find a word big enough for it I call it magic. So I'll use it here.
Kinou Nani Tabeta? is magic.
If this show was a meal then the absolutely right ingredients were found, they were put in the hands of the best cooks and everything was prepared with love and care. This show that I love, was put together by people who love it, and couldn't not make it. This is what I believe. It's my kind of faith.
I've seen so many shows, I've loved so many of them, a lot of them touched me deeply. But only a few touched me this way.
When there is love in something, real care and empathy in the making of something, you can feel it, I believe. And I feel it so much watching this show. I get emotional just writing this.
I wish I could thank every single person that made this show possible. And we could argue all day about the quality of a show, its actors, writers or directors. I could argue why my favourite show is better than your favourite show, and why your show is more important than my show, and why that show failed and another succeeded. I will not argue about the importance of this show and my faith is unshakable.
Maybe because I love food so much and in my life my love filled moments were always around food, I connected at first with Kenji, because his reactions to food resemble mine. But this season Shiro stole my heart and soul. His quiet but profound way of loving Kenji made cry more than any sad scene ever could. And onions and chicken thighs will forever have deeper meaning in my kitchen. These two characters are so well written and so well acted, the words are so layered and so meaningful, that it's a miracle to me that it exists and that I got to watch it.
I'm sure other people will write much better posts about this show, and will probably be better (at a hell of a lot more on point) at writing about all the amazing things that this show has done. But I'm an emotional wreck and I could only write from a personal place today.
I'll be rewatching this show in it's entirety soon, because the evolution of these characters, Shiro specially, was such a joy to witness.
If you read this far, thank you. 💜

Hellooo its me again, actually wanted to request something kinda fluff, kinda smut (a bit of both if i could say)
Kuai Liang helping the reader to relax after a very stressfull week with college and family stuff, how would that go?
Thank you for your time bye byeee ❤
Sure thing! ❤️❤️💕✨💜
Author’s note: Sorry I couldn’t do smut so I chose the fluff one! I hope you like it and enjoy reading this ficlet ;)
Tumblr media
You returned to your home after a vigorous week of college and family stuff.
You decided that you needed a break, and there was no better place to be than the Lin Kuei temple with Kuai Liang.
Kuai Liang watched in concern as you constantly tapped your fingers and bit them.
He is concerned about your health; after all, you are his partner, and he only wants to help you.
He quickly approached you, and with a smile, he asked you.
"Are you okay? You seem tired!" He asked with a bright smile.
"Not really, I’m just stressed out and..." You articulated, you couldn’t find the right word to end your sentence.
"I understand," He said, as he sat in front of you. "How’s your day?"
"There's nothing special about it," You replied dryly. Mentally and physically exhausted. It was a long-arse week.
Kuai nodded in understanding. In all honesty, He knew something was troubling you; it was clear as the sun.
An idea popped into his mind, and that is to talk it out with you, To talk about how you feel about him.
"I heard meditation helps to relax," He began.
As soon as he said that your attention was focused on him, you knew that he was talking about your stress indirectly. You smiled at him.
"Okay then! Let’s meditate!" You uttered.
Kuai smiled because his plan worked. He got up to fetch the meditation mat. He returned with two mats, one for him and one for you.
He gently put it on the ground, then gestured for you to come. You nodded and went to sit beside him.
"I hope this works," you said.
He didn’t reply, but he only gave you a reassuring smile. He hums deeply as he fixes himself into a meditation posture.
You did the same. You hummed deeply, like him. He is guiding you on how to meditate.
You don’t know what you are doing, but you follow his every guide. He told you to take a deep breath.
Surprisingly, you feel relaxed and happy, but you want more, and you crave something else.
But you are grateful; his meditating session helped you a lot. and you wanted to reward him for that.
After Kuai ended the session, he got up and put his mat in its place. You walked up to him and started to kiss him.
He was surprised at first, but he kissed you back.
You didn’t care if someone caught you or anything, You only care about satisfying yourself and Kuai.
You started to press on his lips more as you kissed him. He moaned in response to that.
Kuai is the best care provider in the world; he helps you, cooks for you, and makes tea for you!
Kuai sensed that you were touch-starved. So he decided to give you more physical touches and love.
He snaked his arms around your neck as he pressed his lips against yours; you could feel the boost of your "happy hormones". And serotonin hits your system.
You felt a rush of euphoria when he kissed you. His icy tongue added an extra sensation to it.
You wanted to kiss him forever and be with him forever. You wanted nothing more than to be with him; you wished that you could only leave everything behind and be with him. You couldn’t care about college or anything else. You only wanted to be with your lover, Kuai.
Kuai broke the kiss so that he could breathe, "Come on, darling~." He purred with a luscious grin, "Let’s release some of your stress~."
You knew what he wanted to do, and you wanted to do it too! Hell! How can you refuse to do something like this with him?
"Let’s do it," You muttered with a satisfied tone.

Just rewatched Bottoms as the first watch of 2024 and it's amazing how the second part of this film gives me a serotonin boost lol I get all energetic and stuff, I love this film so much. Also, I already talked about the bedroom scene here, but it's such a beautiful and genuine scene that it amazes me that it's part of an insane and unserious film like Bottoms, Ayo and Havana did it really well and of course Emma Seligman too, amazing really.

GCF in Budapest
I have thoughts... but first a link, please have your own first impressions without any influence.
youtube
So...I don't know what it has been about the Golden promo period but there's literally nothing that hasn't given me mixed feelings. Nothing that I absolutely love or hate and this GCF is right along with it. And overall, that just makes me sad. I spent years being excited for whatever JK would finally give us if he ever did a proper solo project and I'm just kinda bummed overall.
Tumblr media
What did I love?
'Directed by Jung Kook'.
Seeing JK when he's more playful. Always a serotonin boost!
JKs camera work, I just love the insight he has on camera placement and framing to help tell the story he wants to tell.
Yes or No. Still the only track I actually love from Golden so it's nice to hear it featured!
Tumblr media
What bothered me?
'Edited by HYBE'. Bro... so much of GCF's charm and storytelling comes from the edit itself. (And not to nitpick but HYBE is a company...not an editor, so this means there were either multiple editors, or they're purposely trying to not have us associate any actual humans with this film other than JK. I also think they want ARMY to use the logic that HYBE is basically BTS and thus this work is basically completely JK's too... it's not, it's definitely not).
No English subs yet. I get it, I really do but it's a bummer.
The amount of camerawork by someone else. It's not uncommon for JK to include footage with someone else holding the camera but once we get to the gym scenes, the majority is from the perspective of someone else holding the camera, not JK. Which again, there's nothing wrong with that per se but it absolutely feels more like a bangtan bomb or episode rather than a GCF. This is also when we stop getting establishing shots and B roll. Again, nothing wrong with it but that's one of the fundamentals of a GCF for me.
There was so much dialogue that the song was interrupted pretty continuously. JK did that previously as a storytelling device which just further supports the feeling that this is bangtantv content and not a GCF.
Basically, I think I would have had very little issue with this if it wasn't packaged as a GCF. It feels a whole lot more like JK's camping vlog from a few years ago. Loved that, had no issues with it whatsoever.
...the irony is not lost on me that the only song from Golden that I love is Yes or No while my overall experience with this era is....maybe??

so one of the things that i think is happening in the likes vs reblogs debate is that when people who support reblogging over liking say things like "likes don't do anything," they don't mean they literally don't do anything. what they mean is that in the grand scheme of how this site works--as a blogging platform--a like doesn't share the post any further than your own blog. no one else is ever going to see the post; it's going to end right there.
but, for whatever reason, whether it's in bad faith or just misunderstanding, people who support liking over reblogging seem to consistently take this as the other side does mean that liking literally doesn't do anything, which they then meet with the argument that of course it does something. it, as i saw someone put it today, gives my internet friend a boost of serotonin.
the thing is, a lot of these people who are against "likescolding" seem to have this idea that they're fighting against the all-terrible algorithm, and what they're forgetting is that in the process, they're hurting the very real people on the other side of the computer screen. going back to the serotonin argument, yeah, i do get a boost of serotonin from receiving a like, or i did back when i was still bothering to post here. so it would follow, therefore, that i get more serotonin from more likes. but in order to get more, someone is going to have to suck it up and reblog the post so that other people can see it, because my reach on its own only goes so far. if the entire argument rests on giving me serotonin, then shouldn't a reblog give me serotonin as well? why are likes the only form of acceptable serotonin givers?
which leads me into my next point, that by demanding reblogs, i'm supposedly just a greedy numbers counter who can't be satisfied with what i have. and frankly, at this point, after watching this argument go round and round in circles for literal years, i don't think that anything i say is going to change anyone's minds. the people who say i should be satisfied with likes are going to say that i'm greedy and want more attention no matter what argument i present. it doesn't seem to matter to them that i have activity muted on tumblr and statistics muted on ao3 and therefore can't even see the numbers. but i'm hopeful that some of the newer people on this site will see this and understand why i'm arguing for the value of reblogging, so i'm going to say it anyway.
let me paint a picture for you: i joined my current fandom on tumblr almost exactly five years ago. the biggest movie to date had just been released, the fandom was thriving, and i vividly remember seeing artwork after fanfic after gifset on my dash. if i tried to scroll back through my dash in the morning to where i'd left off the previous night, it would take me hours because so many fanworks were being created and posted and shared while i was asleep. the very first fanfic i posted to tumblr for this fandom got more than a thousand notes literally overnight. i'd only been a part of the fandom for a few months at that point and had very few fandom followers, but the field was more than welcoming to a new writer.
but then the landscape changed.
within two years, i'd started to notice a drop in reblogs. i can't tell you for certain what the reason was. maybe it was covid fatigue, maybe it was purity and anti-culture being driven to an all-time fever pitch, maybe it was that people were leaving my fandom, once one of the biggest on the site, for other, more diverse media. i really can't tell you what the reason was, but as the reblogs started to drop, fan creators started begging. and as the creators begged, i suddenly started seeing these posts circulating about how creators should be grateful for the likes and lurkers, and asking for anything more was just being greedy.
slowly, the number of fanworks on my dash started to drop. the fanfics went first. for whatever reason, maybe because reading a fic is more time-consuming, people were particularly hateful towards fanwriters wanting more reblogs. writers tried various tricks, writing shorter fics, putting things under read mores, posting in the form of bulleted headcanons, but nothing really worked. and so they stopped posting. and then they left tumblr altogether. i see a lot of them on discord, and occasionally, twitter now, but i don't see them on tumblr.
the art was next. see, a lot of the artists in my fandom make money off their art, which meant they relied on those reblogs as a way to get their name out there. and if those reblogs aren't happening, and if people are deriding commissions because they think fanworks should be free and available to everyone, then no one is seeing their commission posts. and if the site is already hostile to artists, which it has been since the tumblr purge of 2018, then why are they still on this site when they can be on twitter and instagram?
now i'm watching it happen again with gifmakers. that old resentment is building back up, this time around reposting gifsets and claiming them as their own creation. people claim to be unable to make cool gifsets so they have to steal them, and in the process, other people stop reblogging the original gifmaker. as of writing this, i haven't seen us reach the point where the gifmakers start to leave, but i'm betting it'll happen soon.
you know how many new fics i've seen this last week on my dash? three.
you know how many new artworks? eight.
you know how many shitposts i've seen? political posts? posts lamenting the deaths of whatever current fandom op is in? too many to count.
i'm one of the people who doesn't post my fics on tumblr anymore. i don't see the point. i'll get a much bigger reception talking about them on twitter. and i feel bad for all the newcomers arriving here because their dashes are going to be full of shitposts and politics and misinformation and reposts from tiktok where they once would have been full of stories and art.
but i wonder. if people keep on this reblogging hate train, will we lose the shitposts and politics and reposts from tiktok too? you're not obligated to reblog everything, i'm not even saying that you're obligated to reblog anything, but if we keep going the way we're going, if more and more people drop a like and keep scrolling, will we soon reach a point where there's nothing on our dashboards at all?
fandom is a community, and i think that that's something that people tend to forget. creators create for themselves, but they share for everyone else. i see a lot of posts talking about how creators will stop sharing if all they receive is silence, but most of those are old posts that miss that creators have already received silence. they've already stopped sharing. they've already left.
the thing is, before i gave up on posting to this site, i used to remind myself that if ten people were sitting in my apartment, listening to me read my fics, i would think that's a lot of people and be very honored in the hopes that it would make me feel less sad about the fact that in just a few years, people stopped reading what i wrote. and it isn't that it's wrong, but five years ago, even as a new writer, i was reading my fics to packed auditoriums with standing room only.
and there's a big difference between speaking to an auditorium and speaking to my living room.
no one is obligated to reblog. no one is owed a reblog. and likes do actually do something. but sharing does something too, and it doesn't hurt anyone to reblog it. truth be told, i think we're already past the point of no return; i don't think we'll ever see the creators who've already left come back. but that doesn't mean we can't make this a welcoming space for new creators or that we have to make them feel bad for wishing that more people would share their fanworks. i see a lot of those posts railing against likescolding talking about how it's not okay that likescolding makes them feel bad, so i guess my question to those posters is this:
why is it okay to make the creators feel bad instead?

Finally i don't feel alone in thinking the fandom is toxic, because I had to deal with a horrible amount of ableism (for literal disabilities I have and apparently someone thought I was incontinent and basically compared incontinent people to diaperfuckers) and even still I have to hide behind anon due to the fact the fandom also has a problem with stalking too, since i have been stalked by people who made private accounts around me and screenshotting everything I said to the point I had to actually talk to someone from the Trevor Project because I genuinely did not feel safe
apologies for the rambling, this fandom isn't normal about disabled people
Honey I'm so sorry :(. Yes people are mean and something about this fandom normalizes it. Idk what it is exactly. People say it's 'always been this way' and while that's true it HAS gotten WORSE. mainly because the fandom is smaller and the assholes just sort of all form a cult together and thrive off each others negativity. They say the people with the worse opinions are the loudest and that couldn't be more true within this fandom.
Also the ability to go fully anonymous on this sight is both a blessing and a plague. I do feel that there SHOULD be a way to find out who the anon was. I myself have been consistently harassed by a Spain kin for almost 5 years. It used to really get to me and it doesn't anymore. I truly just no longer give a shit. I went on Hiatus for 2 years and they CAME BACK! Like they were waiting in the shadows and like a bond vilian just turned in their chair and were like "well well well...". It's just kind of funny if you think about it I live rent free in their dome and they don't even know me. An I can't block them because they are always on anon. So I just delete it and carry on with my life. Last year my therapist diagnosed me with Avoidant Personality Disorder and it answered a lot of questions I've always had about myself. Which means I am an extremely shy person chronically so. I take things to heart even if I shouldn't. I feel things very deeply for myself and for other people and animals. My therapist taught me some tools to try and help me deal and I got an increase in my meds. One of those was to not watch the news or actively sought out negative events because those destroy me. I just can't take it. It's a huge trigger for me and I wish it wasn't I don't like the idea that I make it about me' in some way. It doesn't really do much but it numbs me a bit and makes me care less. It still affects me sure but I feel too unbothered to care. My AI covers have been a HUGE stress relief for me and a good distraction from my feelings. But again it's just a distraction. They are little boosts of serotonin to make and it makes me happy and it makes me even happier when someone enjoys it.
The reason I tell you this is to help you understand that no one really gives a shit. That sounds harsh but please let me elaborate on that. I mean I have straight told people "I am legit too shy to function and I do not like to talk about certain things because it gives me major embarrassment that can last actual days. Can we find a new topic or maybe pivot." but they don't actually listen to me about it. And I understand that it's hard to remember everyone's little quirks but to constantly have to remind people and for them to just "Oh yeah sorry... anyway like I was saying" really stings. Because of my disorder you can imagine I have an extremely hard time speaking my mind and standing up for myself. I want everyone to like me I don't want anyone to dislike me to a fault. I will ignore my own feelings and emotions to let others speak about what makes them happy even if sometimes it does sting. So I actually very much do know exactly where you are coming from with that. Just please remember that these are strangers online. Yes they can say hurtful things but the second you close teh app they disappear. They don't actually matter. And YES I am fully aware that this is easier said than done please believe me on that.
This fandom does have a serious issue with ignoring and disrespecting others disabilities. Especially some that are not really heard about/normalized much like yours or mine. I 100% know everyone thinks I'm lying about my personality disorder being a real thing If they don't want to understand me I can't make them, which sucks but I have no control over that. I wish it were not that way but we can't change other people and the way they think/ act but we can work on ourselves and how we process harassment. I wish you luck anon, you're never alone on this bitch of an earth, love you <3

Me while watching Cherry Magic Thailand (Final EP):
It's the final EP!!!! Where will I get my next serotonin boost then? 🥺🥺🥺
1. Achi's cherry has been officially popped (hehe *wink wink 😏). He has now lost his mind-hearing power. However, Karan, it's too early in the morning to be this cheesy though 😅😅😅
2. Awww. Achi's new co-workers are so sweet (even though they prioritise playing football above all else 😂).
3. Why is Rock holding the monitor though? 😅😅😅 Also, holiday bonuses is the GOAT.
4. My SingJan heart 🥹🥹🥹 Rock represents all of us in the workforce that have unrealised dreams. Pai is right though. Nobody can really stop you from doing what you love as long as you have fun doing it. That fan sign though 😂😂😂
5. It's meet the parents time. (Please don't be homophobic, please don't be homophobic). Achi's Mum is very confused why anyone would even want to date her clumsy son 😂😂😂
6. That's next level superstitious though - praying to pick the right gummy bear colour 😂😂😂 Even in his most simp behaviour, Karan is still handsome. Wtf.
7. Looks like they're setting Karan's parents to be problematic. At this late stage of the series???
8. Min's dreams are finally coming true. Hope that won't cause problems with his relationship with Jinta [after 5 seconds] Oh, Min WILL NOT LET IT BE A PROBLEM. Nice. 😊 Also, it turns out that Min's fans are also Jinta's fans. Lucky them 😅😅😅
9. Y'know it's weird to see Tay on the driver's seat since he hates driving irl, which makes New the designated driver in their TayNew Meal Dates.
10. I will never understand parents avoiding necessary conversations with their kids. It's not as if the issue will go away if they ignore it. Karan's mum is every bit of a cvnt (along with the silent, useless father).
Big Sis Karin is the real MVP. I just want to slap Karan's parents (especially the mum) after Karin's monologue. Karan stopping himself from holding Achi's hand because he noticed his Mum is looking is very fvcked up (it broke something inside of me 😭😭).
Karan is lucky to have Achi, but I think he is even luckier to have Karin as his concerned, protective big sis.
11. A MARRIAGE PROPOSAL???? REALLLY??? MY HEART IS FULL 😭😭😭😭😭 [after five seconds] Wait, IT IS A DOUBLE PROPOSAL. THEY HAVE BOTH PREPARED A RING AND WERE SECRETLY PLANNING TO ASK THE OTHER'S HAND FOR MARRIAGE THIS WHOLE TIME. ACHI EVEN DID THE WHOLE PROPOSAL ON ONE KNEE. YES, I'M SCREAMING 🤯😍😍😍😍
12. I still don't accept that Min's group became famous by dancing to Mama OK! song. 😂😂😂 Oh, Rock became a social media dancing office worker icon. So happy for him.
13. Yes, push legalising LGBTQ+ marriage agenda please 🥹🥹🥹
14. YES!!!!! MY ROCKPAI AGENDA HAS FINALLY COME TRUE 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I'm really happy with how this series turned out to be (although they did not show when Jinta will lose his powers too lol). So far, GMMTV remakes are managing to give proper respect to the originals without becoming a copycat. I think with this series, we (and by we, I mean the PolCa fans) can breathe in relief that TayNew is really back.
Now, to wait for 23.5 degrees 😭😭😭

My Top 10 BL Dramas of 2022!!!
I figured I would also make my list of my favorite bls that came out this year (and ended this year) so here are my picks!
1. Love In The Air (Thailand)
Tumblr media
I think most people loved this series this year and it’s not very hard to see why. the couples are immaculate, the spicy scenes are SPICYYYY and the storyline is actually interesting. the couples also got equal amounts of screentime and each of their stories made coherent sense. i personally loved phayu and rain a tad bit more than prapai and sky but i love both either way. chef’s kiss
2. KinnPorsche (Thailand)
Tumblr media
once again I think most people love this series. I waited so long for this series and almost didn’t watch it bc I was annoyed it took so long lmao. but i’m glad I gave in and watched it anyways. this is art. this is how you do a mafia drama, this is how you act, this is how you depict love, lust, hatred, betrayal, all of the above. i thought i liked kinn and porsche the most out of the couples but after going through my saved videos I have found myself to be a clown, apparently I was subconsciously obsessed with vegas and pete.
3. Cherry Blossoms After Winter (S. Korea)
Tumblr media
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING!! THIS SERIES!!! IS SO FUCKING GOOODDDD!!!! i love cherry blossoms after winter so damn much. it’s so fucking cute and i love the characters so much, especially taesung. oh my boy taesung! he is such an angel pls. i always expected something bad to happen while watching this but I was so happy when nothing did happen. even when taesung’s mom found out they were together, haebom and taesung both stood their ground for their relationship although haebom was hesitant to even start dating taesung bc he was worried about his mom. but this is definitely one of my favorite korean bls
 4. Cutie Pie (Thailand)
Tumblr media
this is a very obvious choice. zee has been one of favorite actors since why r u so i was so damn excited about this. i really liked it and it was different for thailand, an arranged marriage bl series. i also really enjoyed the side couples in this, especially nuea and syn. in my opinion this series wasn’t completely perfect though, there were times i felt like things were a little too slow or a character would get on my nerves *cough* kuea *cough* but i’m really hyped for the special episodes and zeenew’s series coming in 2023
5. Takara-kun to Amagi-kun (Japan)
Tumblr media
I love love LOVED takara kun to amagi kun. it was so cute, both takara and amagi are literal angels. it was pretty natural too like it didn't feel really forced and I loved when amagi would get all excited and like mess with takara or drag him around and takara just went with it bc he was so utterly in love with this boy. nothing but love for my two angel boys
6. Cherry Magic The Movie (Japan)
Tumblr media
the original series was so fucking good so i KNEW this was gonna be good but i didn’t think it was gonna THIS fucking good. this movie was everything i think all of us wanted it to be and more. i could not ask for anything else, this movie knew what it needed to give and it GAVEEEE. it was so cute and the serotonin boost i got while watching this, i felt like a lovesick fool smiling throughout the entire thing. it was certainly a perfect ending for this amazing series.
7. Senpai, Danjite Koidewa! (Japan)
Tumblr media
japan was GIVING in 2022. i cannot even begin to explain how in love i was with this series. even i was surprised at how much i loved it bc i usually don’t really like workplace/ office bls, i really don’t, but something about this year made me overcome that dislike and i was obsessed with so many workplace bls this year, i think this series is the one that started that trend for me.
8. Love Stage!! (Thailand)
Tumblr media
so this series was so unexpectedly good. the original anime has always been one of my favorites so i was so hyped about this. i saw the japanese adaptation that came out in like 2020 which was umm.....something. i will say that this was MUCHHH better than that. especially since it was kaownah and turbo, made it so much better, they were perfect. i remember while watching this there were so many issues with episodes like audio, quality and subtitles wise, like there was always something wrong. despite that though i got through it and still enjoyed it. the side couple was also really good. since this series revolves around celebrities, managers and the entertainment industry it gave very much war of y vibes but like not as dramatic(?)
9. My Secret Love (Thailand)
Tumblr media
everybody and they mamas was hating on this series and i never knew why, i felt like i was the only one enjoying it? i loved all the couples (especially park and lee) and like it was pretty much just a lighthearted university bl which i’m quite a sucker for tbh. i do admit some scenes were a little.....?? much? unnecessary? but overall i loved it, and the ost is such a bop, one of the few thai bl osts i really enjoy, bc it’s jeff satur so of course.
10. Oh! Boarding House (S. Korea)
Tumblr media
do not ask me why i loved this series so much, i really do not know. i feel like it just really stuck with me throughout the year and even till now i catch myself thinking about it for no reason. like there were so many good korean bls this year but this one was slightly different. i loved the main couple and i just really enjoyed the other side characters as well. it was like a found family kind of situation and it felt really cozy, fun and relaxing to watch. like while watching it, is almost felt like hanging out with friends? idk if you haven’t seen it pls go watch it and maybe you’ll understand what i mean.
Honorable Mentions!
- Triage (Thailand)
- Plus and Minus (Taiwan)
- Semantic Error (S. Korea)
I would say overall this was a good year for bl, it seemed like there was a new series almost every week and there was always something to watch. also the influx of korean and japanese bls this year was surprising but they were all decent, they are pretty much on the same level as thailand at this point, but i think thailand is still number 1 in all things bl.

SANGYEON - PEONY
meaning: peony’s signify a happy marriage
pairings: husband! sangyeon x partner! g.n. reader
synopsis: you and sangyeon are celebrating your three year anniversary as a married couple- but how did you get here?
warnings: slight angst but it’s very brief, drunk tbz members
word count: 2.8k
a/n: i’m so bad at really cute shit like this so pls don’t hate on this too much

sangyeon stood in the door frame with a mini table, your favorite breakfast foods displayed beautifully across it. he spent the past hour and a half making breakfast in bed for your three year anniversary as a married couple, running over the plans he made weeks in advance to make the day special for both of you. he shuffled over to the bed quietly, placing the mini table on his nightstand and sliding into bed beside you.
“baby, good morning.” he whispered into your ear, causing you to jump in place and stare up at him with sleepy daggers.
he just let out a small laugh, making you groan and bury your face into his thigh. “you scared me, you jerk.” you mumbled, shifting up in bed and scratching the top of your head.
he turned and grabbed the table on the nightstand, smiling happily and turning to you with glimmering eyes. “happy three years, i made you breakfast my angel.”
you squealed happily as you noticed your favorite breakfast foods, grabbing his face in your hands and pecking small kisses across every crevice. his laughter filled the room, grabbing your hands in his and placing kisses on each of your knuckles.
“thank you, my loving husband.” you said as you grabbed a muffin, picking off a small piece and tossing it into your mouth. “i don’t deserve you, truly.”
he shook his head, placing a soft morning kiss on your lips. even if it was only ten in the morning, he still tasted like honey and bananas. when you both pulled apart, you picked another off another piece of the muffin to feed to your husband. he opened his mouth, allowing you to place it in his mouth and laugh at how adorable he was.
“it’s been a crazy three years.” you spoke, bringing the morning smoothie to your lips and sipping from the straw.
that brought sangyeon into thought, thinking back on all your memories together. but more importantly, how you both met.
the night air enveloped your face into a brisk hug, your thoughts clouding any sense of direction your feet were carrying you. the autumn leaves were changing above and falling to your feet, the satisfying crunch of them giving a small serotonin boost to your bitter mood. your hands were stuffed into your pockets as you stood at a railing, staring out into the Han River as the time neared midnight. for the most part the park seemed to be empty, with the occasional couple, friend group, or individual going about their night. you stood there with one airpod occupying your ear, the other one put away to stay aware of your surroundings.
the one friend group behind you were a group of five, sitting in the grass by a group of trees. they all sat together, talking about God-knows-what. you didn’t pay much attention to them, noticing that some of them were clearly tipsy as some of their words started to slur as their conversation echoed through the air. you soon heard footsteps approaching beside you, walking to the risking and leaning against it. you noticed it was one of the men at the corner of your eye, looking back forward to only look at the street lights reflecting off the water.
he didn’t say anything for the first few minutes, just staring out at the river as well. he seemed to have a lot on his mind as well, leaving you a bit curious about him. the silence was cut short when he turned around, looking at his group of friends and noticing one biting the other on the arm as the one being bit pulled his arm from him.
“what’s your problem!” the one friend screamed, swatting at his face.
you turned around, curious at what was unfolding. when you saw three of the men screaming at one of their friends to not bite and to stop doing so, you just watched with a small smile on your face and giggled to yourself. the man to the side of you laughed, watching everything unfold. when he looked over at you, seeing you were watching at the scene intently, that’s when he decided to speak up.
“sorry for my friends if they disturbed your peace.” he said, causing you to turn to look at him. and when you did, he could’ve sworn he felt his heart rate fasten. you were so beautiful to him, even under the streetlights the park provided.
you just shook your head in disagreement, crossing your arms over your chest. “it’s okay, it’s amusing and lifting my mood a bit. i don’t mind.” you watched as two of his friends chased one another, the other two just sitting back and hiding behind a tree trunk. you leaned over to whisper to the man beside you, “does he normally bite people?”
sangyeon let out a laugh, smiling at how cute he thought you were. “no, just when he’s drunk for some reason.” he watched the scene in front of him, laughing more as changmin was now making sunwoo his next target. “he calls himself the vampire of seoul.”
you nodded, laughing at the antics of his friends. you mumbled an “interesting” under your breath, fully turning to look at the handsome man next to you. “why aren’t you joining in on the fun?”
he turned to look at you again, your eyes meeting. he noticed a small sparkle in them, smiling as he admired your facial features. “they’ve been like this all night, i just wanted a few minutes to myself for a bit.”
“oh, sorry if i disturbed you.” you replied, beginning to turn around before he placed his hand on your arm to stop you.
“you didn’t, i enjoy speaking to you.” he admitted, sending you a reassuring smile. “you’re more interesting than them, anyway.”
you both turned as a small scream was heard, watching as the white haired boy tackled the pink haired one in a hug. you both just laughed, his hand still on your arm and the atmosphere not feeling so suffocating to you anymore.
since that night, you both met up at the same time at the same exact spot. sangyeon didn’t want to tell you about his idol image yet since you seemed to not know who any of them were that night. he wanted to make sure you wanted to be in his life because you genuinely wanted to, not just for any type of clout.
the nightly meetings were constant, and you enjoyed them. should you be meeting up with a man at night who you barely know? no, you shouldn’t. but as long as it was public and you felt safe, you didn’t care. plus, you always had your taser and pocket knife on you in case of anything. you both got to know more about each other. about sangyeon’s love for singing and him being an uncle, and sometimes he even showed you some songs he’d written and sang them for you.
after two months of these nightly meetings, sangyeon told you some news. “i’m going to be gone for a bit, so i’m not going to be able to meet up anymore until i get back.”
you pouted, nodding at him. “where to? if you don’t mind me asking.”
he felt his heart race when you pouted, bringing his hand up to your cheeks and turning your pout into a smile. when you let out a small laugh, the laugh that sounded like music to his ears, he continued. “i’m going to the states with my friends.”
you took his hand in yours, placing it on your thigh and smiling. “for tour, right?”
his eyes widened, unsure of how you knew about his idol image. “how'd you find out we’re idols?”
you just laughed at his shocked expression, admiring how cute he looked when he was confused. “jaehyun accidentally told me one night when we were on facetime.”
again, another shocked expression. “you have his number too?”
you nodded as more of your laughter filled the air. “i have everyone but yours and eric’s.” you cocked your head to the side. “speaking of which, why don’t i have your number? or kakaotalk?”
he stared at you for a few seconds before replying, shocked at how close you became with his group of friends so quickly. he quickly pulled out his phone, opening it up to add a new contact. “here,” he said as he handed you his phone. “i was scared you’d say no, so i never did but that’s my bad. i’m sorry.”
you just smiled lovingly at him, grabbing his phone dramatically and typing in your info. “just text me here and there on tour, please?”
and that he did. he even facetimed you from time to time, often after shows or to show you something cool in one of the many cities they toured. you still went to that spot without sangyeon, sometimes with him on facetime so it would feel like he was somewhat there with you.
“this feels like a date.” you commented one night on facetime as you sat at your dining table having breakfast as he sat in his hotel room eating dinner.
he nearly choked on lettuce as those words left your mouth, chugging down some vitamin water to clear his throat before speaking. you just watched in amusement as his cheeks heated up, laughing at his dramatics.
“just take me on one when you get back, will you?”
your first date was at the han river, except it was a picnic that sangyeon had prepared specifically for you. he remembered some of your favorite foods and cooked them, even learned to cook an international dish you became interested in when he was overseas when he showed it to you over facetime. you thanked him a million times for the cute date and delicious food, your smile seeming to be permanent that night. as you both watched the water, his jacket slung over your shoulders and his arms wrapped around your waist from behind, you listened as he shared some stories from his time in different countries and states.
“maybe we can go together someday.” he added at the end of his story, smiling at his remark.
you turned your head to look at him, smiling foolishly at him. but he loved your smile, he loved every aspect of you. “we aren’t even dating yet and you’re making plans for our first vacation together?”
he nodded, placing a small kiss on your cheek. “of course. we aren’t dating yet, doesn’t mean i can’t plan ahead.”
you placed your forehead against his. “you missed.” you mumbled, pointing at your lips. he took that invitation, smiling as his lips finally met yours.
since your first date, you both were as inseparable as ever. and once you both started dating exactly six months after meeting for the first time, no one was surprised. not even the company. the relationship seemed sweet, very honeymoon-esque. perfect. and it was that way, until sangyeon started to allow his work to get in the way of everything. you would call, text, and you’d be met with either no response or half-assed one. after a long three weeks of the same behavior, you stormed to their dorm and asked to talk to sangyeon.
“he’s in the studio, i can take you but i don’t think he’d want any visitors.” younghoon offered, grabbing his house keys and walking down the street to sangyeon’s studio at the company building.
you followed behind him, confiding in one of your now-closest friends about his behavior. he hugged you comfortingly before walking off, leaving you in front of your boyfriend's studio. when you knocked, you were met with a “go away” from the familiar voice you haven’t heard in days. you knocked again. and again. and again. until the door was opened angrily by a tired-eyed sangyeon. his eye bags were low and darkening, his hair scruffy and some of his facial hair starting to become evident.
you cocked your head to the side in a playful manner, crossing your arms across your chest. “remember me?” you questioned, attitude stringing through your tone.
he huffed, running a hand through his messy hair. “i’m busy, babe.”
you shoved past him through the door, closing it behind you and locking it. “don’t ‘i’m busy babe’ me. i haven’t heard your voice in almost a week. you barely respond to my texts or calls, if you even do that is.” you look around the studio, seeing the mess of empty ramen cups and americano cups. the mess of blankets and pillows on the small couch signify he’s been sleeping in his studio, making you shake your head. “have you been sleeping in here? or eating properly?”
he shook his head as he took a seat in his chair, going back to listening to samples for music. “i have work to get done.”
“fucking damnit, sangyeon!” you screamed, grabbing the sides of his chair and turning him to face you. you cup his one cheek, feeling the stubble of his growing beard. “you look like a fucking mess, and not in a hot way.” you joked, scanning over his face and noticing how exhausted he truly looks. you sigh, grabbing his hands and holding them in yours. “you’ve been doing great work, and you will continue to do so. but only will it feel rewarding and worth it if you take proper care of yourself. if the roles were reversed or if any of the boys were in your position, you’d think the same thing.” you pulled him up from his chair, smiling as he allowed you to pull him to his feet.
he nodded, allowing you to drag him from the studio and down the stairs. you dragged him towards the dorms, grabbing his dorm key from his pocket and opening the door quietly as to not disturb anyone. you dragged your boyfriend into the bathroom, helping him strip off his clothes and running him a hot shower. when it was warmed up enough, you helped him get into the running shower. what you didn’t expect was for him to pull you into it with him, you being fully clothed.
a gasp left your lips, looking at the tired man before you. “babe, i’m fully clothed!” you shrieked as quietly as you could.
he shrugged, a tired smile playing on his lips. “oh no, looks like you’ll have to change into a pair of my clothing and spend the night.” he pulled you into his chest, his arms engulfing you. you didn’t fight back though; you missed his touch so much. you just melted into him, feeling a singular tear slip from your eye. “i missed you so much. i’m sorry, my baby. i’ll never treat you like that ever again as long as i shall live.” he mumbled as he buried his face in your hair.
fast forward two years and sangyeon kept his promise. he never once treated you poorly, always making sure to equal you out with his work and making time for you and his duties as an idol. you both were now back at the Han River, having your monthly picnic date as the sun sets in the background. you both laughed as you recalled your first meeting, your arms leaning against the railing as his arms are wrapped around your waist from behind.
“marry me.” sangyeon suddenly said, placing a kiss to the side of your head.
your eyes widened, letting out a soft laugh. “don’t pretend you’re proposing to me right now, mister lee.” you replied. when his arms left your waist, you turned around to see your boyfriend on one knee with a shining diamond sat in a blue velvet box. “sangyeon, what’re you doing-“
“i love you. and i want to spend the rest of my life with you.” he spoke, taking one of his hands in yours and placing a small kiss on the back of it.
he continued with his confession, leaving a few tears to escape both of your eyes. you wiped them from his face, automatically agreeing to his proposal when the question was asked. and out came his friends with cameras, having recorded the whole thing.
it was now four years later, sangyeon’s career taking off in directions he had dreamt of. and you were becoming an upcoming best-selling author, even working with your management team on a small book tour for your upcoming release. never had you thought taking a small stroll after a stressful day would lead to you finding the love of your life, spending his night taking care of his drunk friends. but you couldn’t ask for anything, or anyone, better.

Holy Beans, Did I Never Actually Introduce Myself?
Hey! I am ProjectXIII, though I go by many names. You may call my any variation of XIII/13/Thirteen or Jenova, though I'll normally just label myself with a cute lil stag 𐂂! I'm 20 years old, and primarily use they/them pronouns...though to be honest, I don't much care WHAT you call me by. Just be respectful.
I've been a writer since I was a kid, but you'll notice I'm real sporadic on here. That's because I think best on paper, and I very rarely have the energy to actually make my stuff digital. So if you really wanna see stuff from me, you're going to have to ask, because my pet projects are likely rotting in a box in my room.
I love...so many different types of whump. Here's some of my all-time faves, though:
Muzzle Whump
Pet Whump (sometimes BBU)
Living Weapon Whump
NonHuman Whump
Lab Whump
Military Whump
If I'm posting a drabble, it'll probably be one of those...but I tend to write based on my whimsy. So it may not be on that list, and that a-okay. Any of my pieces not part of a larger story will be tagged as RAMbles. Whump-based, chittery things will be tagged as STFU XIII. Probably. I may post full tales on here, but you're more likely to find them on my AO3, ProjectXIII.
Other than writing, I also draw (if you haven't yet noticed), choreograph (you'll never see that), fursuit (you won't see that on Tumblr either), and am learning 3d modelling and animation. You may get to see that last one.
And I roleplay! I'm a semi-lit to novella RPer, and if you wanna get something together with me, I recommend reaching out via discord (flamingpsycho) or RPRepository (FlamingPsycho).
When I'm not partaking in 'indoor' hobbies, you can probably catch me hiking or kayaking. I love the outdoors, and being amongst the trees gives me my greatest bouts of inspiration. So if I'm not talking to you...I probably got lost in the woods again.
Anyways, I CANNOT believe that after all this time, I'd never shared who I was. So uh, yeah, that's me. Feel free to send me asks, prompts, questions...whatever. I like to talk, I love to write, I love to share what I make, I'm just very emotionally dead, plus this account is so quiet that it doesn't give me the serotonin boost. Anyways, catch y'all on the flip side!
