#barcode tattoo is my favourite

༶ ⋆˙⊹CHERRY WAVES
A/N: deftness + matt = soaked panties
Summary: reader and matt meet at deftness concert😏
Warnings: mentions of drinking, swearing, kissing
・₊✧⋆⭒˚｡⋆
I was beyond excited. My best friend had surprised me with tickets to see one of our favourite bands, Deftones, for my birthday. We were in the queue, eagerly waiting to scan our barcodes to enter the pit. Chills ran down my spine as a breeze swept by, feeling a impractical yet cute in my mini skirt and boots. As I scanned the crowd, I locked eyes with someone further back - tattooed, messy brown hair, and icy blue eyes. His defined facial structure and sharp jawline made my heart skip a beat. He caught me staring, and my cheeks turned red in embarrassment.
He licked his lips, his eyes flickering over me, and he smirked, nodding slightly. I smiled back, but our moment was interrupted when a girl approached him, yelling and pointing at his face. I furrowed my brow, wondering what her problem was. He seemed to calm her down by rubbing her arm, odd. She kissed him. Oh.
I looked away, chewing the inside of my cheek, until my best friend wrapped her arm around me. I looked up to meet her eyes, and she exclaimed, "Who's excited?" with a big smile. We finally entered the venue and squeezed our way closer to the front, close enough to see the stage at eye level but not too close to get lost in a mosh pit. Crossing my arms over my chest, I watched my friend post on her story, cheap drink in hand. Glancing around, I noticed the same guy from earlier to my left, a bit further down, with his little girlfriend. Great.
The cheers erupted as Deftones took the stage, and I sang along to every word, swaying with my friend to the music. After a few songs, the band took a moment to speak and interact with the crowd, and suddenly, yelling broke out to my left. I saw the same couple arguing, the boy's hands in the air as she pointed at his face again. Most people around us were watching, barely able to hear the argument over the continued speech on stage. I made out the words "I'm done" as the girl stormed away through the crowd. I clenched my teeth at the scene and sharply breathe in, and as the boy scanned the crowd, his eyes landed on me again. I offered a soft smile, which he reciprocated. He licked his lips, looking down for a moment before coming over to me. Oh, shit. He reaches me, leaning down to yell in my ear due to the volume of the speakers, "Bad date,". I laughed back, "I gathered that."
Suddenly, my friend wrapped her arm around me, shoving her phone with the flash in my face. "It's my best friend's birthdayyy, I love you so muchh," she slurred, clearly affected by her bottomless drink. I squinted at the flash, shoving my hand in front of the camera. "It's your birthday?" The guy, said again, his hot breath sending chills over my skin. "Was, yesterday," I replied, smiling up at him. "Happy birthdayyy," he drawled out the words. "Y/N," I responded. "Happy birthday, Y/N," he chuckled, and I smiled back. "What's your name?" I asked, tilting my head. "Matt," he said. Suddenly, people behind us started shoving, and Matt quickly gripped my waist. "You good?" he asked, leaning down. I nodded, smiling, my hands finding their way to his wrists that held onto me.
We stared at each other for a moment before I heard a familiar drum. No way. I smiled and jumped a bit, "I fucking love this song!" I practically squealed at him. He smiled down at me, hands moving down to my hips, his cold rings giving me goosebumps. "It's a good song," He replied. I turned my head to look at the stage and moved slightly so I was facing it. Matt picked up on this and moved behind me, his hands resting on the front of my hips. His chin briefly rested on my shoulder. I sang my heart out, swaying softly with him, and as we reached the bridge, I turned to face him, "Is that what you wanttt, with youuu." I grabbed his face, singing at him, as he smiled down at me, and the instrumental bridge played. His eyes flickered to my lips, and I mirrored his actions. His tatted arm moved hair behind my ear, resting by my jaw. We both leaned in, and our lips collided in a kiss. I was never usually like this, kissing a stranger, but it felt right. It was a good kiss. Butterflies erupted through me as I smiled against his lips, pulling away for air.
The song ended, the slide noise of the guitar strings echoed, and the crowd roared. Our foreheads rested against each other for a moment.
"Do you think I could get your number, birthday girl?"

Oh, I love my girlfriend so much. It feels like nicotine everytime we get to have a date together. And what we did on this date, I shall tell you! I showed her Voyager and Ds9 characters and had her nickname them and give first impressions. And now I share her wonderful insights with you lot:
Janeway: Mama Maria, a renowened chef who owns a cooking brand of butter where the bottle is shaped like herself. Became a Star Trek to promote her brand.
Chakotay: Joey-David Hasselhoff, lost his legs in the great star wars as is now very short. Became a Star Trek to pay off his outstanding gambling debts. The marking on his face is a barcode to immediately kill him if he tries to escape.
Kes: Mama Maria's evil twin, not a true Star Trek and just has the visitor's pass. Has the power to return everything to its base components. She is always under attack so she wears an indestructible vest.
Doctor: Uncle Steve, do not trust around children. The blue is a warning and he's very bitter about it. Pretends he's a genius but he's very stupid. He has an ankle bracelet which keeps him from leaving the ship which he bothers everyone about.
Neelix: A criminal mastermind tattoo artist that destroyed his homeworld with a tattoo machine, not a true Star Trek but came along to be amused. Talks like a gangster. I.. don't remember the name she gave him..
Tuvok: Great Value Spock, bought at the store on a discount during a clearance Vulcan sale and they needed a Vulcan to complete their ship. His eyebrows are drawn on.
Paris: Milk toast, the whitest white to ever white. He goes to space church which he himself built and his favourite food is white bread. Just a guy, he has no reason to be here.
Torres: Laquisha, a plant that knows absolutely everything. Does not like Uncle Steve. Goes to space church but because she knows its fake, and the world is actually on a cracker with hummus that will eventually be eaten by the one true space god.
Kim: Mark, a part timer that's just there. He does a bit of everything but he isn't actually good at anything. A temporary Star Trek but eventually he'll quit and follow his dreams to go to space college.
Sisko: Carl, owns a vintage George Foreman grill and makes space hotdogs for everyone on Hotdog Friday. Uses his baldness as a weapon to blind his enemies.
Kira: Karen, a typical Karen who is rude to everyone around her. Complains about being on Ds9 but doesn't do anything about it. Hosts a radio show to sell her trademark cement purses, which she always carries around at all times.
Bashir: Dominic (named by the two of us), participated in the space sex offender shuffle. He is very creepy and no one likes him, don't trust around anyone. No one can stop him. Probably really into bondage.
Odo: Gorp, created by the Kardashians to be a clone but made wrong. Banished for being a failure of a clone. He has no feeling in his left hand and cannot feel pain. His ears are glued on.
Dax: Monica, a furry that believes she is a leopard. Also a sex offender but they forgive her because she's so good at her job. If you see her walking around in a fursuit, let her be. Do not anger her because there will be no escape. Sells pancakes alongside Mama Maria and they are dating.
O'Brien: Loppy, it's his first day! He's so happy to be here, he's having a grand old time. It's always his first day as he is actually a mind parasite that makes everyone believe it is his first day and they will never know how long he's actually been there. Never.
Dukat: Zorath/Zorag (We both forgot it so it changes to something else with a z) -Melty Candle Face, an obsessive yandere Klingon that's very mentally unstable. He was first in love with Dominic until he found he could not be trusted. He targeted Loppy next because its his first day. Currently dating someone else, but it's undetermined who it is.
Garak: From the Shining Jack Nicholson, a scizophrenic who causes problems for everyone. His daily hobby is crawling through the vents and he can show up anywhere at anytime. He is an unpredictable menace that likes to scare the ship.
Mirror Kira: Ds9, the ship itself embodied as a half robot. Abuses her power to sleep with everyone on the station. What happens to the ship happens to her and forces everyone to protect her under the threat of death. She will not hesitate to throw you out of the airlock if you disobey her.

my blorbos from my shows (all fandoms edition)
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most):
Really varies, but at the moment, it's definitely Timothy Lawrence from Borderlands (my beloved identity crisis in progress who has consumed over 42 thousand bucks in scotch, and simultaneously cries over cute cat images and shoots someone point blank.)
scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped)
I don't know about "my baby" per se, but Mortality from The Walten Files is one hell of a Shaped Bastard and I feel Cool Design Aggression every time I see them. They please my ape brain.
scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave)
Patricia Tannis, from Borderlands! I absolutely love her despite not being a fan of BL3 making her a siren, and it pisses me off how little fandom content there is for her </3 she's so funny and the way she slowly grows closer to the Crimson Raiders will never cease to be endearing to me. I want the best for her.
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week)
Rouxls Kaard from Deltarune, love that unhinged puzzleman father figure. I need more content of him naow he's my favourite.
poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave)
OHHHOHO Definitely Katagawa Jr. from Borderlands. Look, the guy's a shithead but HE IS MY SHITHEAD AND I LOVE HIM AND WISH HE HAD THE CHANCE TO GET A REDEMPTION ARC/ JUST BE IN THE GAME FOR LONGER BECAUSE HE DESERVED MORE CONTENT. He had the potential to be So Well Written even if he wasn't a great guy, and he was done dirty. RIP you hedonistic corporate stooge with a dehumanizing barcode tattoo.
(can you tell my autistic ass is hyperfixated on him right now? ;) )
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason)
...I'm so sorry, but definitely Randy Jade from Dialtown. I'm definitely attached to him n' want better for that funky little disaster man, because it would be super cool to see him happy, but ALSO I'm going to put him in the horse plinko machine and laugh and nobody can stop me.
If he fell over and cried I would be stuck between ":(" and ceaseless mirth for at least 5 seconds before helping him up.
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell)
I would pick Max from Sam and Max up by his ears and hurtle him into superhell because I think he would have a hell of a time there. (adoringly.)

Just a thought on my favourite corporate gremlin... I see a lot of fanon/general assumptions that Katagawa got his ECHOeye because Rhys had one, but I gotta say, I think that’s a weird take. Look at the eye itself in the context of what we know about Katagawa.
For starters his ECHOeye is not aesthetically pleasing. This is a guy who stocks his literal space yacht with the finer things in life, a character whose conceptualisation involved giving him four whole cat cafes. If he was really going to get an ECHOeye just because Rhys has one, why not just pick a plain one like Rhys’s? In any case, he wouldn’t pick that particular orange monstrosity with an ‘M’ in the centre. It converts him from a person into a walking Maliwan advertisement.
But then, nothing about Katagawa’s image has any degree of personal identity to it. He has a barcode tattooed on the back of his neck as a constant reminder that he is merely the 13th of his parents’ brood. He wears Maliwan colours in both his personal capacity and when he’s imitating Zer0.
And let’s briefly talk about that, by the way; I promise it is relevant. Why does he deck his imitation Zer0 suit out like it’s another advert for Maliwan? Sure, you could argue he wanted to convince everyone Zer0 was working for Maliwan now... except he knows Zer0 did not dress in Atlas colours while working for Rhys. There was a sizeable risk of endangering his own plans there and like, say what you want about him, but Katagawa isn’t stupid. He would be able to identify that at least.
It makes much more sense if Katagawa had his ECHOeye long before he even knew Rhys existed. Maliwan is clearly pulling the strings on everything about him—from what he wears to what he does to how he interacts with other people. Consciously and subconsciously, Katagawa is always thinking about what he can do to benefit his parents. I’ve pointed out on the depths of my blog before that his parents never took any punitive action against Junior for wiping out his siblings, implying they wanted him to do that. This is just another step in the weird, violent, cultish indoctrination going on in Maliwan’s first family.

Please excuse this thing, I decided that I should write something while running low on sleep and high on caffeine, and this was the substandard result:
Remus and Sirius being Library Boys (because I like books and why not) in a few thousand words. (Also @onlydreamofmysoul kind of inspired this because your dedication with ficmas made me want to write, so I’m blaming you for this disaster)
His tea is far too hot, but he gulps down mouthfuls anyway, knowing he’ll need the sugar to have even the smallest chance of actually staying awake during his library shift tonight; the night shifts are his favourite, because he’s usually free to just stack books without being interrupted, but on nights like this, he can barely stay awake. Inputting yet another barcode into the aging computer, a repetitive task that needs no brain power whatsoever, he internally groans when someone walks over to the desk.
“Hi, I’m wondering if you can find me the worst book in here?” Remus doesn’t startle at the request, doesn’t even lift his eyes from the list he’s reading.
“My autobiography might fill that category for you. It’s called “Why My Parents Should Have Left Me By A Motorway”, and it - oh. Fuck.” It’s only then that he remembers that people can hear what he says, and that most of his internal monologue shouldn’t be heard by other people.
“And on what shelf would I find that book?” The guy is smiling, thank God, and Remus is sure he recognises him from a class. Probably a language, he thinks. The man opposite him definitely seems like a language kind of guy. He also seems like a very, very attractive kind of guy, but that’s neither here nor there.
“Actually, it’s still in publication - there’s still more stuff they can add to the book, you know, since my life keeps getting worse - but maybe you’d like a classic instead?”
“I read enough classics as it is, but maybe-” It’s at this moment Lily, who’s at the end of her shift and is putting her mug back in the sink, walks by and decides to get involved.
“Just so you know, children’s abridged versions don’t count as reading classics. Not when you’re in your twenties,” she says, grinning far too energetically for midnight.
“Fuck off, Evans. I just want a really shit book. We’re talking My Immortal kind of shit, but published.” Remus wonders where Lily knows the guy from, and then remembers her once telling him about a strange, yet endearing, man who was obsessed with her and his best friend, and presumes the man opposite him is one of the two.
“I’m not sure books like that generally get published, and if they do we probably don’t have them here.” Remus stares curiously at him, taking in the messy, yet somehow still perfect, hair and the tattoo - because of course he has a tattoo, all hot guys have tattoos, it seems - peeking out from the back of his shirt. “What do you want with the worst written book anyway?”
“I’m glad you asked.” He waves his arm, gesturing to the library, and sinks into one of the chairs. “I’m doing an experiment. Both my brothers are literature nerds, and they’re becoming too poncy for me. So I’m gonna really hype this book up, make it look like everyone loves it, and then give them a shit - really, really shit - book, and see what they say.”
“Too poncy? I can practically smell the wealth coming off you, and yet you’re not poncy?” Remus sometimes thinks that maybe he should consider the things he says, and now is one of the times he regrets not being slightly more sensitive. Or, like, polite. The stranger looks shocked for a second, then smirks and hoists himself off the chair.
“That’s fair. But, they both study Classics, so they’re automatically poncier than me.” Lily walks past again as the man speaks, and stops to glare at him.
“Are you calling me poncy? I had to work day and night to be accepted here, and I didn’t have a family name getting me in, and there was no using money to-”
“Lils,” Remus says, interrupting her before she can go on a well intentioned, but unnecessary, tirade. “He’s talking about his brothers. Don’t worry, nobody’s accusing you of swimming in bribery-money.”
“Bribery money? Is that a thing?” The man goes to take a square of Remus’ chocolate, and he all but slaps his hand away.
“You tell us. You’re the one with all the insider knowledge of ponces and Tories.”
“Okay, I can excuse being called poncy, but a Tory? That’s too far, even for me.” Remus has the decency to pretend to be sorry, even though he’s one step away from crying with laughter; a man who sounds like he wouldn’t be out of place at Buckingham Palace, getting offended at being associated with Tories. Luckily, he doesn’t have to pretend to be remorseful for long, because Lily lets out a burst of laughter before he can apologise.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if you came out wearing a blue pin button and cheering on Margaret Thatcher. You might not be a Tory, but don’t try and tell us your family has been voting Labour for years. You can’t blame us for assumptions.”
“Actually, I came out wearing a rainbow pin, not a blue one. But, I guess I get it. The majority of ponces here are Tories.” Remus feels his heart speed up - if he said that to Lily, she’d definitely start making notes to check he wasn’t having a heart attack, the dramatic woman - at the mention of the man’s gayness. He could have a chance. A small chance, admittedly, but a chance. Lily finally decides to leave, and Remus waves her goodbye as he leads the man down a pathway of bookshelves, on the hunt for the worst book ever published.
“So, what’s your name? And what’re you studying, if not Classics?” Remus asks, inspecting the shelves for something, anything that hints at a terrible book.
“Erm, don’t laugh, but my name’s Sirius. And I’m studying Philosophy and Modern Languages.” Remus looks up from the bookshelf, not even trying not to giggle.
“Sirius? But no, you’re not poncy at all. I’m kidding, I’m kidding. So, modern languages? That’s where I recognise you from.”
“Recognise me? Have you been stalking the University buildings, searching for my pretty face?”
“No, you dolt, we take several classes together. I’m doing English and Modern Languages, hence the sharing of classes.”
“Oh, we take basically the same degree then.”
“We definitely don’t. I’d never be caught dead taking philosophy - I hate my life already, and now I’ve got to come up with bullshit theories of why?” Sirius - Remus can’t get over the name, even though his is equally as ridiculous - opens his mouth, about to protest, and then closes it again.
“Actually, that basically is what we do. How come you’re making me evaluate all my life choices in the span of five minutes?”
“I don’t know, maybe you should consult a philosopher to find out why. That’s what they do, right?” Although his tone is meant to be teasing, the same kind of jokes he makes with Lily, instead it comes out as flirting, though he can’t imagine Sirius minds much, because he’s smirking at him and looking like he wants to kiss him.
“Take that back, and say my degree is perfectly valid.” Sirius takes a small step towards him, and he doesn’t step back, instead looking him square in the eye and raising his eyebrows.
“Make me, philosophy boy.” He takes another step towards him, and Remus is certain he could feel Sirius’ heartbeat against his chest, if he tried hard enough to sense it. Instead he winks, and says, “Or don’t, and go ask why you’re searching for validation from some random boy you met in the library fifteen minutes ago.”
“In my defence, the library boy is incredibly hot.” They’re touching all over now, chest to chest, their noses rubbing against each other. Remus’ back hits the bookshelf as their mouths crash together, and he hears the distinct noise of books falling to the floor. Later on, when he’s restacking all the books, he’ll regret snogging someone right up against the bookshelf, but right now he runs his hand through Sirius’ hair and smiles against his mouth. He likes the night shift even more now.
#wolfstar#library#my book obsession is shining through#i'm sorry that this monstrosity had to cross your screens#I'm seeking validation I probably don't deserve lol

11,16,17,21 sabrina }:) oh
Sabrina McCall is my Nate mancer :)
11. Do they have any tattoos/piercings?
Yes! She has two piercings on on earlobe, three on the other. She has her conch pierced and a cartilage piercing. She used to have her smiley pierced but she took it out. She also has a barcode tattoo at the base of her neck with her dad's birth and death date in the barcode.
16. Do they have any pets?
She has a tortoise! His name is Rook (I wonder why) and she got him for her 13th birthday, when he was already a year old. So he's 15 now. She loves him.
17. What are their hobbies?
She's very athletic. She trains in MMA but not seriously, more for the rush. She did ju jitsu and boxing as a kid. She likes hiking and rock climbing, shes very physical. But she's also pretty good with tech and you'll catch her building computers for fun and selling them for cost. She just likes to be doing something with her hands at all times. She also likes watching sports in bars. She likes to be a little good at every sport she's heard of so it doesn't matter too much to her whats on, but she enjoys watching rugby and baseball the most.
21. Their favourite/comfort food?
She's a bar food kind of girl. She's not great at cooking, and she had to cook for herself a lot growing up so going to a bar with friends and discovering you can get food there? Amazing. Her best memories are getting food with friends at a bar, watching a game. So probably buffalo wings or pepperoni pizza. She puts away a lot of junk food for someone so fit and slim.
Thanks so much for the ask!

Thanks for the tag, @literalmomfriend :D
1. Do you make your bed? Nope. Sometimes I’ll smooth the blanket a little if I need to like, fold laundry on the bed or something, but I’m going to clamber back into it at night, so why bother?
2. What’s your favourite number? Do folks actually have favorite numbers? I guess I like the symmetry of twelve? Very divisible.
3. What’s your job? Great question. I work for a bead shop that started out as a retail position in a brick and mortar store and became a little-bit-of-everything job when we went online. I’m the only full time employee under the owner (I sometimes have one or two part timers that I supervise) and my duties include shipping, inventory management, data entry, customer service, packaging, and organizing. I am queen of the shelves and grande dame of barcodes. Oh, and I just took over the social media. In June, I’ll have been working for my boss for 10 years. I love my job.
4. If you could go back to school, would you? I might consider an auditing situation? I’d like to sit in on lectures and participate in class discussions again, but I’d be more than happy to never write another paper. I just want a book club where I can be teacher’s pet again.
5. Can you parallel park? When I have to, if no one is looking, messily
6. A job you had that would surprise people? I’ve only ever had the job i currently have (started right out of high school), but I used to volunteer at church CONSTANTLY. I taught one of the 4-5 year old rooms (we had several - it was a mega-church) and did puppets in the chapel. That should surprise folks, since I kinda hate kids and god now?
7. Do you think aliens are real? I think there is definitely other life in the universe, but i don’t think it has ever visited earth. And I’m not certain we would recognize it if we found it.
8. Can you drive a manual car? absolutely the fuck not
9. What’s your guilty pleasure? Eating the ice cream that Tori leaves in my freezer (I replaced your phish food after eating it @theangrytori)
10. Tattoos? One on my left shoulder blade of a cluster of morning glory flowers and most of my lower right leg is the lampost in the woods illustration from The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. I want more.
11. Favourite color? I don’t really have a favorite color. I like to bead with turquoise and bronze a lot?
12. Favourite type of music? I pretty much only listen to women singer/songwriters and vocal jazz/swing. Lucy Dacus, Rosie Tucker, and Your Smith are current favorites in addition the usual Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald. And I really love Motherfolk, which my husband drums in
13. Things people do that drive you crazy? I really struggle with people who are insincere, so like, people arguing in bad faith “for fun” or just to get under the other person’s skin drive me up the fucking wall. Or those friends you have who are always teasing, so you never can tell when they’re being serious or not? I fucking hate it.
14. Do you love doing puzzles? I don’t think I’ve done a puzzle since I was a kid. I think I’d like to! But we don’t really have a table big enough for that.
15. Any phobias? in addition to just not wanting kids, I have a pretty severe reaction to pregnancy and breastfeeding. I can’t watch the Alien movies because the reproductive horror element. I start distancing myself from people when they become really pregnant because if I hug them and feel something move, I’ll probably cry or throw up.
16. Favourite childhood sport? I still have trauma from gym class in school that keeps me from enjoying most physical activities. There were no sports.
17. Do you talk to yourself? Oh, yeah. I monologue, I sing, I talk to the cat...
18. What movie do you adore? I really love Disney movies. Sword in the Stone is one of my all time favorites.
19. Coffee or tea? Coffee, for sure. I want to like tea, but it’s gross, so?
20. First thing you wanted to be growing up? A singing ballerina for Jesus
@ladytemeraire, @theangrytori, @tippytap-extraordinaire You wanna give it a go? <3

I'm thinking of getting inked with something that will remind me of iKON someday. but idk what to get. please help me.
Oh Anon. You should not ask me unless you are prepared for an ESSAY on tattoos. We should really grab CWAC June and have a meeting. Here are my suggestions:
1) Paper Airplane. It’s simple, clean, classic and even if you move on from IKON, it has a pretty low regret/cringe factor and will still be a good tattoo to have because it’s not too obviously OMGKPOP! You could even get their initials on the wings (in teeny tiny letters).
2) The official IKON logo. I quite like the design (not the letters but the one that looks like rectangles). Again, it’s clean, minimal and doesn’t scream OMGKPOP! in 10 years time. It looks like a geometrical design. The regret/cringe factor is pretty low if you make it small.
3) Pi. I am biased and I know you asked for IKON tattoo ideas and not CWAC ideas but honestly, I love numerical tattoos. It’s hard to regret/cringe at them because they are universal and nobody will know the meaning except you. You can get as many or as few digits. Let’s not forget that Bob did given himself a 3.14 rating, haha. You could get the greek character but I prefer the actual numbers.
4) Their debut date. 15092015. I’d personally just get it in small fine print but if you wanted something larger, maybe a barcode style. I find barcodes hit and miss. If you misjudge the size, it’d have high regret/cringe factor.
5) Lyrics you love from them. Pick your favourite song of theirs and select a few short words/phrase. This has high cringe and regret factor if you don’t pick very well, haha. You could also get your favourite song title in Korean characters. This only works if you’re not actually in Korea….because people would be looking at you like, “Why tf does she have “Love Scenario” on her arm?” It’d look cool in any other country though ahah.
6) A tiger and a bunny line art. This is only an option if you’re a hardcore DB fan and like cute designs. I’d keep it really small, just an outline. This has moderate regret/cringe factor is you don’t like cute ideas or make it too big. The idea is simplicity.
7) Something in their handwriting. This is hit and miss but I’ll put it here as an idea.
8) Richard Parker surrounded by roses…..ehehehe, just kidding.

im having doubts about my tattoo. i wanted to get a tattoo of the barcode of my mom’s favourite book but i dont know if i want to have the constant reminder of my mom, especially permanent on my skin. my mom and i had some great memories, along with some really terrible ones. she was abusive, and shes one of the main reasons im so insecure and have so many issues with being comforted & loved, and im not sure i want that reminder on my skin in ink. just the other day, i had a terrible nightmare that i was back in my mom’s room and she was yelling at me for something i didnt do, and i just shrunk back into that mindspace that ive hated for so long.
and its so confusing to my friends who know how badly my mom treated me. why am i constantly allowing her memory to be a sentimental one and not one that i depise? i wish so fucking much that she was more awful to me so i had a reason to fully hate her instead of this inbetween bullshit.

Vers +Prom- Argentum bros hcs
Added Dad Cor too~
- Vers is the oldest by 3 years
- He’s kind of a shit
- Like Prompto he’s MT but he’s an older like “model” they abandoned due to too much freewill. Vers’ unit was stubborn and didn’t always follow instructions
- After his unit was stopped, Prom’s started
- He’s been awake/active longer than Prompto but he’s still only a baby himself when Cor comes into the picture. He’s 3 (He’s unsure why he’s kept around honestly)
- The moment he sees Cor go to Prom’s like tank, he rushes forward and attacks. He’s a stronger than normal children his age due to being MT. Surprises Cor honestly
- Vers only attacked cause he thought Cor was gonna hurt the baby (Prompto) inside. He’s been protective over the baby since he first saw him. He’ll attack anyone who comes near him
- He always sees the baby awake in his tank when no one else is around, the others not so much. So he plays wih him, the baby likes it judging by the smiles he only gives Vers. The baby is quiet and looks around a lot, he’s very curious
- Cue Cor having to attempt to hold back a kid while freeing the baby. Baby Prompto just stares at them both when he’s freed before his lip trembles and he cries. (He’s scared incredibly scared )
- Cor keeps him in his jacket and grabs the other kid’s hand, just runs with them
- Baby Prompto wails the entire time cause it’s scary and little Vers is just saying about calming him down cause he’s making a lot of noise, alerting people. Little Vers is terrified of being caught he knows what happens
- Vers is shivering the whole time so Cor picks him up, lets him under his jacket with Prom. He clings onto him, but he sulks cause he’s not crazy on this. Prompto settles immediately, looks at Vers and coos. He’s comfortable with the older child
- So like when Cor gets them back to his place Vers just avoids him at first. He is quiet and doesn’t trust him but Prom’s a little baby so he trusts Cor pretty easily. He’s a clingy little boy
- Prompto can’t walk yet so he crawls after Vers. He starts walking at around 14 months. Talking a little later
- Cor names them immediately when they get home. He gets attached quickly so he adopts them
- Vers remembers all the MT stuff so he knows they’re MT but Prompto doesn’t so Vers and Cor never actually tell him. They want him to believe he’s a normal human being
- Vers just like makes up white lies about the barcode when Prompto asks about it. Prom like first asks when he’s 3
- “The Chocobo who delivers babies puts these on us so he can find us if we get lost…He forgot to use invisible ink.” Like Vers is 6 but he’s mature for his age
- Prompto believes it for a while until he doesn’t. (Maybe at 5 he finds out that kids don’t normally have barcodes)
- Prom’s first word was “Dada!” just this cute little voice practically yelled it at Cor when he handed the kids over to Monica one day. Cor quickly took him back and held him cause just wow he doesn’t know how to react
- Second word was “Mama.” he got confused and called Monica such. Neither her or Cor knew how to react
- Can’t say his big brother’s name so Vers gets “Veeee.” said or yelled at him if baby Prom wants him
- Cor once found Vers covering his little brother in chocolate spread and Prompto still being a baby wasn’t too fussed. If anything he liked it, kept putting his tiny fist in the jar to get more chocolate to either eat or help smear on himself. That day was a nightmare for Cor, just had to give him a bath and also get Vers to bring in the chocolate spread cause baby Prompto wailed the moment he was away from it. (He developed a liking to it. He wanted more to eat)
- Said bath time ended in everyone getting wet cause Vers ate some of the chocolate spread from the jar and Prompto didn’t like that. So splashed everyone cause it was his now
- The older they get the more they bond. They’re arseholes to each other at times but they have a good bond
- ﹰElementary school Prompto was a little afraid so Vers skipped class and spent the day with him until he settled
- High school he did the same thing. Got in trouble like but he didn’t care. Noct was super confused seeing this older guy show up. After befriending Prom he learned that older guy was Prom’s big bro Vers
- Vers and Prom used to hang out more at school until Prompto befriended Noct. So Vers is a tad jealous
- Vers likes playing guitar and writing songs. He sings some with Prompto at home
- Vers is gay. He’s out so yeah most people know. Except his baby brother who he accidentally forgot to tell. He got so nervous about saying he just eventually forgot. Prompto learns at 13 about this cause Vers casually lets it slip without thinking. Cue Prom buying him gay pride flags and badges, he’s extremely supportive as is Cor
- At 16 Prom learns he’s bi. Vers had his suspicions from the way Prom looks at the prince. The moment Prom comes out Vers is so happy and smug cause he called it. Gets him badges and socks with the bi flag on. Vers and Cor are very supportive
- When they was younger, they’d sleep in Cor’s bed if they was scared or missed him after a missions
- They stayed up waiting for him to come back from a mission. Vers made Prom his favourite curry and they fell asleep on the couch before Cor came home. Vers was 13 and Prom 10, Cor put a blanket over them and gave them forehead kisses. (They had a babysitter don’t worry. Someone who Cor knew.)
- Vers gets in trouble at school a lot or he did. He got in fights a lot but it was usually cause someone hurt Prom or said something about him
- Prompto always helped clean him up/fix him up
- Cor teaches them combat but all it does is make Vers less likely to be as messed up after fights
- Prom and Vers game together at home if their friends are busy or they just feel like staying at home
- Prompto calls Cor, dad and Vers calls him old man
- Vers is a vegetarian
- He also adores Moogles and Garulas
- Some days Prom and Vers get along and other days it’s just:
V: *throws balled up socks at Prom’s face* Stop singing that chocobo song! It’s in my head asshole!
Or just
P: *pokes Vers’ cheek with his foot for the 10th time*
V: *shoves him off the couch* Fuck off Chocobutt
Or just
Vers stealing Prompto’s snack and Prom trying to snatch them back off him via attempting to wrestle him. Sometimes it’s the other way around
- They use each other as excuses if they don’t want to do something. Like creep asks them out it’s just: “Oh um I have plans with my brother.” Or Vers’ case: “Fuck off, I’m busy with Prom.”
- Vers can carry Prom and vice versa
- Vers has a big one-sided crush on Gladio. Prompto doesn’t get it
- Prom has a big chocobo plush fron Vers and Cor from his second birthday. He still has the plush when he’s twenty except Cor and Monica has stitched it up a lot over the years
- Vers has a Garula plush. He adores it
- When Prom got his right hand and wrist tattooed, Vers came with and got one too. Prom was talkative cause he was nervous, he gripped Vers’ hand. Vers meanwhile cried cause his was a bigger tattoo on his arm. (Originally he wanted a sleeve but it turned into just one tattoo) they learned that day Vers is terrified of needles. He threw up after the tattoo was done
- Helped with Cor to teach Prompto to swim when they was younger. He held Prom’s hands and Cor helped him kick
- When Insomnia fell Vers came to Prom. Just a quick phone call and he quickly headed to their location. He just hugged his little brother so tight cause he was terrified. He got out with Cor but decided to split up to go meet Prom and the guys. He’s seen a lot so he practically is trembling at first before he manages to calm himself
- He likes giving Prom piggy backs specially if Prom hurts himself. Just Prom asks if he’s too heavy and Vers is like nah you weigh nothing to me. (Prom’s not underweight though so no worries)
- He’s protective even more so as he knows Prom likes Noct. He wants to be sure Noct’s good enough for Prompto. He has his suspicions Noct likes Prom back
- Vers likes Chocobos but not on the same level as Prompto does. He gets that level over Garulas (catch this 23 year old yelling about Garulas)
- They totally tease each other over crushes
- Even at 23 and 20 they’ll still hold each other close when sad. Sometimes sing or hum or something and other times just sit in silence
- Vers once at 16 got drunk and decided to cook, managed to destroy a pan. (He was having boy troubles and dealt with it in a unhealthy way a.k.a he got absolutely shitfaced) he’s banned from drunk cooking
- They’re the sibs who like saying embarrassing shit about the other
- Also Vers will randomly pull Prom into a headlock, ruffle his hair or give him a side hug. No inbetween
- Prom: *showering, singing*
Vers: *comes in, grabs a headband and pushes his hair back* Oh shit did I tell you about what happened to *insert crush name here*
Prom: *stops* Um no?
Vers: *putting face mask on* He totally made an ass out of his self at a party…But someone said he was making out with some guy so I might have a chance here.
Prom: *sighs* Here’s to hoping
- So Vers cares about his skin. Takes care of it a lot. Prom’s kind of jealous his big brother’s perfect complexion
- Vers is kinda a secret hopeless romantic
- Prom and Vers have an amazing bond. Like looking sometimes you’d think they don’t get on but they love each other

little muse facts
1) What does your muse smell like?
Depends on the verse. Cigarette smoke, apple or floral shampoo since she's neurotic about her hair. When she does wear perfume, it has a tendency to either be vanilla-based or jasmine-based. In Wartown, she wears Joy and Evening in Paris - both Christmas gifts from the men in her life. In Bunkerverse, it's Vanilla Musk, Bey's Rise and Vanilla Fields, in Faith and the Saltzmen (I still liked Faith and the Family Saltzman better, lol) it's Besame's 1940, which is cognac and tobacco and other lovely things, and Burberry Britt. Stefan liked Chanel's Chance, so clearly that perfume can suck an egg. In my main verse, it’s usually Vanilla Musk or Victoria’s Secret in Bombshell.
2) How often does your muse bathe/shower?
Any chance she gets. Faith is a little over-zealous about keeping clean, and she’s a neat freak on top of that. Unfortunately, in her line of work she’s often doused in blood, guts and ash with no bath tub readily available for hours or even days. So, in a pinch, there are lakes, streams, the ocean and the gross bathrooms of rest areas, national parks and gas stations. Slayers actually spend a decent amount of their lives covered in grime. One of the perks of the job.
3) Does your muse have any tattoos or piercings?
Pierced ears, a tattoo of tribal vines a couple of inches above the elbow of her upper-right arm. In Wartown/1940s, the tribal tattoo is replaced with a sash that says, 'Blue Skies'. She's got both 43100 and 430019 tattoo'd together with bar lines like a very tiny barcode on the inside of her left bicep, so small that you probably wouldn't notice it unless she pointed it out. In the Dark Angel verse, the barcode is very visible and tattoo'd to the back of her neck. In Bunkerverse, she's got a tattoo on her lower, left hip in small cursive that just says, "Winchester" and a spot near it on her hip where she had a tattoo removed. In my main verse, the writing on her lower, left hip says, "Lead kindly light" which is a line from a hymn that Eliza actually has inked there. In Faith and the Saltzmen, she’s got a calligraphy 'S' from between her shoulder blades which, frankly was a tribute to ex-boyfriend and Pat Benatar song, Stefan Salvatore, but could so easily be turned into an S for ‘Saltzman’.
4) Any body movement quirks (e.g. tapping heel, shaking knee)?
She folds her arms when she’s pissed, bored, tired and stares off into space when she’s upset. Not in a flighty way, more like she’s glaring at the future. She also gets mildly physically dramatic in a Shakespearean way when telling stories aka tall tales aka probably lies. Slumps when nobody’s paying attention.
5) What do they sleep in?
Generally, not much. If it’s cold, she’ll do a tshirt or a sports bra and boy shorts, but her resting state is nooked. Occasionally one of her man’s gigantic shirts, but that’s verse specific.
6) What’s their favourite piece of clothing?
I want to say ‘tank top’ but don’t knock a good balconette bra..
7) What do they do when they wake up?
Go back to sleep.
8) How do they sleep? Position?
On me back, Mush. On her side, actually, but I couldn’t help a Newsies reference. ;).
9) What do their hands feel like?
Soft with a firm grip. Like everything else, Faith’s a monster about how she looks and smells. Now and then you’ll find her hands have cuts or bruises, but those don’t take long to heal.
Instructions: Fill out the questions about your muse, repost don’t reblog, and tag as many people as you want.

tagging: Everybody. <3

send me a topic to write a meta about my muse on: Indian Hill
send me a topic to write a meta about my muse on!
indian hill
It’s surprising, actually, how little Isabella has talked about her time in Indian Hill, with anyone. It was where she was created, but she hasn’t talked about it very much, even with the other Indian Hill creations. The most stark reminder of her time at Indian Hill is the barcode tattoo on her wrist, which she cannot remove (From here, “She rolled up her sleeve and showed him her bar code. She had tried to cut the skin away, and burn it off, but it grew back, as her flesh always did.”) No matter what she does to remove the mark that Indian Hill left on her, she can’t get rid of it.
And I think that’s what I’m going to focus on here. Every one of Isabella’s main character traits come from the fact that she was created, and not born. Her abilities (which she has called, on several occasions, her “freakish” abilities) all come from the fact she’s a clone – her lack of pain, her invulnerability, and her super strength are all borne from the fact that she was created. In regards to her physical traits, her blonde hair feels synthetic, like a wig. In the first thing I ever wrote for her, she describes it like this:
“The Court had done something to her D.N.A., so her hair was blonde. As Kristen, she had always loved her hair. It was deep red and beautiful. When she was a child, she had brushed it a hundred times before bed. And they had taken it from her.”
She also looks exactly like Kristen, which has gone a long way to her feeling of Otherness and displacement – a constant sensation that she isn’t living up to the memory of Kristen. You can read more on that here, in my other meta! I’m not going to focus on that this time, because this meta is about her relationship with Indian Hill, but it was worth a mention, because it is such an important part of who Isabella is.
I suppose it makes sense that Isabella doesn’t talk or think about Indian Hill a lot, and that’s represented by her not talking about, or looking at, the barcode on her wrist. Indian Hill, and what was done to her, is constantly in the back of her mind, and it’s effecting her every action, thought, and response, but she isn’t even aware of it. In the same way, the barcode on her wrist is always there, whether she looks or not.
She’s obsessed with Edward because she was built to be the “perfect woman” for him. At the height of her insanity, in the farmhouse, she constantly said that he was her “reason for being” and that she was “made for him”. She loves books and reading because the doctors gave her books to read, and taught her about the outside world through books. When Isabella was first made, she saw the world in a very childish way, as evidenced in this thread, and this quote:
“It was good to hear she was progressing quickly. Isabella felt a warm glow inside her chest that Alyce had told her was happiness. It was nice. She felt it when Alyce gave her a new book to read, and when Doctor Strange told her she was doing the right thing.”
It took her months to acclimatise to reality, and stop thinking the way a child does – in a simple and blunt way, with little understanding of emotions and empathy and reality. But, though she’s fully functioning and socialised now, one particular remnant of her time at Indian Hill has stuck with her, and it will probably never go away, and that’s the way she lives through books, often copying scenarios and traits from her favourite characters and novels. As she says in here, “I’ve lived my whole life inside the pages of books.”
Edward is constantly calling her out on her constant belief that their relationship is like a fairytale, especially in the wake of the farmhouse. The farmhouse itself was heavily inspired by Stephen King’s Misery, in which a crazed fan holds her favourite author hostage in her home and cuts off his foot and thumb (in the movie, she just breaks both of his ankles. Get out of here with that weak tea, honestly.) The farmhouse is the most blatant example of Isabella playing out the plot of a novel, and when it came to the murder-suicide at the end, she said this:
“Wasn’t this how all the most romantic stories ended? Romeo and Juliet, Antony and Cleopatra, Othello and Desdemona. All of them together in eternity, at peace. And now, she and Edward could go too. Into nothingness.”
This is another example of Isabella comparing her and Edward to fictional characters, as if their relationship is from a novel, playing out in reality. One of the clearest ways that Indian Hill is still affecting Isabella is in her unshakeable, ridiculous, belief that she and Edward are soulmates, destined to be together no matter what. This is absolutely borne out of the brainwashing she was subjected to in Indian Hill which, no matter how normal and socially capable she appears, is still driving her entire life.
Though Isabella doesn’t talk about Indian Hill a lot, it does feature in most of her recurring nightmares. Here is an extract from one of them:
“She looks down and sees she’s missing her hand. It has been detached at the wrist. There is no blood. Her flesh looks like tofu. White and bloodless and synthetic. Her hand is sitting on Professor Strange’s desk, its fingers twitching and tapping like spider’s legs. It stands up, using its fingers as legs, and drums its nails on the table impatiently.”
Isabella’s memories of Indian Hill are so thoroughly repressed that they only come out in the form of nightmares, when she has no control over where her mind goes. And her memories from Indian Hill are very linked to the fact that she sees herself as a monster, a Stepford Wife (again, another allusion to a novel, which heavily influences how she sees herself.) She mentions this explicitly here:
“Her will wasn’t her own, and she’d known that, but she’d accepted it anyway. Because it hadn’t mattered what she’d wanted. Her only purpose had been to do what he wanted. Like a robot. Like a Stepford Wife.”
No matter how much she tries to forget what happened to her in Indian Hill, how long she doesn’t talk about it, it was an undeniably traumatic experience for her, and shaped her completely into who she is today. She was made there, and taught how to appear human there, and she might seem perfectly well-adjusted now, but she is still suffering from the effects of Indian Hill, and Professor Hugo Strange. She always will.

soulmate!jihoon
genre: fluff
word count: 2.4k
author’s note: this is my first time writing a soulmate au,, it kind of sucks IM SORRY (p.s. being the stupidest person ever, I deleted this after posting it yesterday)
• in this universe, where the swirls of every other colour merge together in a magically fascinating harmony is accompanied with the adornment of countless stars, you, a person so small as compared to the big, big world, were lucky enough to be born with a soulmate.
• you’ve heard many tales of people doomed to be alone forever. in fact, your very own younger sister tragically has that same fate. of course, a person can fully well be independent. but let’s face it, while everyone else can feel their soulmates’ emotions alongside with their own, you can’t help but think that you have been condemned for not being able to do so. you’ll feel that a part of you is missing, which indeed, it is.
• thankfully, you were born to a lucky predicament, and you get butterflies whenever you think about your significant other. (well, your about-to-be).
• in the kingdom that you live in, whatever you feel, your soulmate feels it as well.
• that’s why whenever he feels something, you try to find ways to make him feel better.
• when he feels happy, you watch funny videos to get him even more excited. same goes for when he feels sad; the dose of memes always works, with the release of endorphins from your side, his spirit gradually soars.
• you were grateful to be able to have someone destined to be with you (trust me, it makes the ‘searching for your Prince Charming’ part way easier), and even more so to have found such a sensitive and nice one.
• he seemed to return the favour, and you’d find something tickling your funny bone whenever you got bad results or cry over a sad movie. (though it kind of makes you look crazy at times when you suddenly laugh through your tears.)
• you, and i’m sorry if this sounds shallow or weird, kind of just-
• just fell in love with the way he cared for you in that sense. you were afraid that he would be unfeeling and stoic before you began feeling him at the age of ten, but it seemed like it went right for you. perhaps falling in love was too deep of an emotion, but it certainly made you feel all warm inside when these deliberate gestures all but strengthen your bond with him.
• you fantasised about the day you would meet him. would you be casually taking a stroll down the road when you see him? would you crash into him, would he help you pick up the things you dropped, and would you two make eye contact and everything would fall into place?
• but then reality hits.
• how were you supposed to find your soulmate?
• other kingdoms have different ways to identify them, such as unique barcodes or countdown timers, tattoos, red threads or some fancy way but all you folks get is an ambiguous, shitty method. that’s why your realm actually has the lowest percentage of people finding their The Ones, and naturally divorce rates go up as well.
• ‘but you ain’t gonna suffer this fate, my love.’ your imaginary fairy godmother says in her small little cottage in the woods. ‘you are a special one, mi darling, mi chocolate croissant, pumpkin cake.’
• you were born just a minute before the grandfather clock struck twelve on 29th may. it was a miraculous birth because you were thought to not be able to make it due to your mother’s poor health at that point of time, and she had barely made it to the hospital before you popped out of her womb.
• but a secret you’ve recently uncovered from your parents for soulmates that have the same birthdays gave you a small, tiny ball of burning hope that maybe, just maybe, would you find your soulmate.
• it is something very, very rare and exquisite, something along the lines of being ‘one in a million’. it was almost as if it was part of folklore, a story parents would tell their children before stroking their hair and tucking them into their beds.
• they say that an opportunity, a superbly special one at that, would come for you to switch bodies with your soulmate. how long, you ask. certainly not a day. no, it is not even an hour. one minute is all you get, and in that measly sixty seconds, you can do whatever you want in his or her body, but the most logical thing to do would be to leave an address or phone number so that you could meet up.
• it was nearly impossible and you thought nothing of it, brushing off the flicker of hope inhibiting your heart with the notion that it was just a wishful myth for desperate people seeking for affirmation.
• until…
• it really did happen to you. one day.
• it was just another day in your boring, mundane life. you woke up with the usual bed hair in the morning, dragged your feet to school and then dragged it back with even more force when you came back because of all the assignments dumped on your shoulders. after a quick shower, you settled on your bed, procrastinating like you usually do since it’s your favourite pastime. minutes became hours, and soon it was nighttime. just then, your younger sister came in, lunged herself on your bed and started chatting with you.
• somehow, five minutes into the talk, you started feeling dizzy, and it was doubled with your soulmate feeling the same as well. (in case you were wondering how you knew he felt that way, it is kind of inexplicable, but something in your subconscious mind singles that train of emotions out for you.)
• nothing registered in your mind, and all you knew was that you were falling, falling… (FOR YOUR LOVE HEY YOU)
• after what seemed like five billion years, you found yourself standing in the middle of an unfamiliar sidewalk. you were, by then, confused out of your mind. especially with the feeling that something uncomfortable was sitting in your trousers.
• TROUSERS???? you definitely weren’t wearing trousers and you certainly didn’t have a snake in there when you last checked. *blushes*
• the signboards around you told you that you were still somewhere in seoul, and not sucked into a wormhole to mars, but since it was so big, you had no idea where you were.
• something clicked in your mind, and that seemingly impossible story that reverberated through it didn’t seem so impossible anymore.
• then, another wave of panic gripped you suddenly when you realised that if you aren’t actually dreaming right now, you have possibly just spent half a minute mentally breaking down and that YOU. HAVE. TO. GET. TO. WORK. IMMEDIATELY.
• whipping out the cellphone that was in the jacket he wore (and what you are wearing currently), you decided to record a video since you didn’t want to snoop nor did you have his password.
• you turned it into selfie mode and a part of you died.
• literally. because holy shizzles, this man is hotter than the surface of the sun, than the darning metal railings in summer (and that is really, very darning hot). after admiring his visuals for a very short while since you were tight on time, you (reluctantly) started recording your voice. (with the video blacked out because you didn’t want to get distracted by his face and waste even more time.)
• “so, haha. i’m, um, y/n and this is a really weird of meeting you. i actually don’t know how you feel about this entire soulmate thing or whether you want to actually meet or not, so i’ll just leave you with my phone number and it is up to you to decide whether you want to contact me. it’s XX-XXXX-XXXX, see you maybe?”
• a few seconds after you end the video, you were blasted back into your room to be met with the confused countenance of your sister.
• you: “the feck just happened?”
• her: “i actually have no idea what happened, but his name is jihoon, his surname is park, i think? he’s nineteen, AND he said that he has been wanting to meet you for years but he’s scared you won’t like him, but for most of his short stay here he was freaking out about how he had boobs.”
• you: “he,, said he wanted to meet,,, me???”
• her: “…yes.”
• you, mushing your head in your pillow: “asfghjkl, ##1234#5#&&&&””””????”
• five minutes later, you received a notification and saw that a ‘park jihoon’ had added you on kakao talk. you were literally shaking because this is your first time interacting with a beautiful guy, or any beautiful guy for the matter of that fact. (and because his visuals in his profile picture made you feel all sorts of things you never thought you were capable of feeling.)
• and you were mentally cringing at your username because seriously???? iamthememeyoufightme??? what hell was fifteen-year-old self thinking???
• your fifteen-year-old self: “wEELLL hoW wOUL;d I KNOW tHAT mY SOULmaTE iS A GREEK gOD?!?!?!?”
• but your heart stopped because his status was “i’m nineteen, you fight me?”
• a coincidence??? well i think not *strokes non-existent long beard*
• jihoonsucks: hi, nice username
• iamthememeyoufightme: hi, nice status
• jihoonsucks: :)
• iamthememeyoufightme: :)
• jihoonsucks: anyway,, y/n??? wanna meet?
• iamthememeyoufightme: HELL YEAH
• iamthememeyoufightme: i mean, hell yeah, but in a softer voice
• jihoonsucks: OKAY
• jihoonsucks: i mean, okay, but in a manlier voice
• iamthememeyoufightme: hehehehehehehee
• jihoonsucks: hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe
• jihoonsucks: I HAVE MORE HEHEs
• iamthememeyoufightme: very well
• iamthememeyoufightme: but i have more chins :)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
• and so, your playful and light hearted friendship/relationship began with jihoon from then.
• the effect he had on you was obvious, because you would drop everything and rush to your phone to reply him whenever he texts you. (your heart beat boxes every time he sends something,
like pftbtbtbtbtbtbtpftkswaaaararrttt)
• your friends and family all tease you about it e ve r y single time. (“young love,” they chorused, pretending to be grossed out at you smiling at your phone yet again, for the trillionth time that day, even though they’re just secretly proud parents.)
• but jihoon was really the sweetest thing ever.
• he would greet you good morning every time, send you memes that would have you rolling on the floor, be really concerned whenever you tell him you were sick or injured.
• you’ve set the meeting date to be two weeks from now, and as the clock ticked and time passed, you found yourself getting more and more nervous because,,, you were really falling for him.
• especially when he sends things like this
• jihoonsucks: honestly i want to thank you always being by my side these few years. it was really comforting whenever you could sense my emotions and cheer me up when needed. thanks for being so kind and caring and i’m just saying all of these here before i meet you because i’ll be too shy to say it then.
• *inserts a picture of you speeding to the hospital on a stretcher*
• ^ that was the same reaction you had when your sister recounted that when he was in your body that minute,, he turned to the mirror and said, “what the hell, i’m so pretty.” but you figured she probably said it to boost your ego a little :“) (BUT NO IT WAS THE TRUTH YOU IDIOT)
• little did you know,, he was feeling the exact same way too!!! his best friends whom he lives with in a dorm snatches his phone and texts you sometimes, and had changed your contact to "y/n💖😭😚😍😘💗💕💞💓” (which he hasn’t changed up till now ;)) they never let him live it down and he just fuels their teasing by turning a bright shade of red whenever your name comes up in their conversation.
• finally, the day came. you woke up at the crack of dawn even though you guys were meeting at 11am and you were just like wtf @ yourself because it was only 5.30am.
• nevertheless, you took a loooooong bath while playing with your rubber duckies, tried to pick out an outfit for three hours, fussed over your hair and makeup for one hour, freaked out for yet another hour before leaving your house nervously.
• (and guess what?? even though jihoon didn’t wake up as early as you, he woke up at 9 o'clock, which was just about the best compliment ever because he is always, always late for meetings
with friends…plus he spent more than an hour styling his hair because every. strand. matters.)
• you reached the rustic and cozy cafe you’ve agreed to meet at fifteen minutes early, hence you ordered a matcha latte before finding the booth beside the window to sit at. you were trembling just a tiny bit, and you were mentally scoffing at yourself like, “what in tarnation is wrong with you, you’re neither a hermit nor a hot-men-deprived woman, you are a female with high dignity and shall not be wavered by a boy whom you have never met in real life before.” (even though you knew that you were indeed both a hermit and a hot-men-deprived woman who does not have much dignity and has already been wavered by a boy whom you have never met in real life before.)
• just then, you were hit by another pang of anxiousness, but it was alongside a surge of exhilaration. you recognised the two emotions to be jihoon’s and just a second later, the bells attached to the door tinkled, signalling that someone had come in.
• to say that you were bewitched by him was the understatement of the country. you were entirely enthralled, engrossed, enamoured with him, the way he carries himself, the charisma that seem to radiate from him despite his shy steps towards you, even his mismatched neon yellow and pink shoelaces.
• he looked around the cafe before spotting you, the small smile on his face widening into a bigger grin as he walked over.
• “feck, you are so good-looking, god damn it. i wanted to be the hot one in the relationship,” you meant to come up with a slick and smooth greeting,, but silly you blurted that out instead.
• his eyes widened and a tint of pink appeared on his cheeks.
• in unison, you both said, “UM,,,, RE.LA,,TIONSHIP?????”
• you, overthinking: ‘dang it, he’s bound to think i am this weird person who wants to move super fast, what if he thinks that i just want to get into his pants??!?!?!?!!?!??!?!? what if he wants out of this and will never text me anymore????@?!?!?!?!?’
• but contrary to your pessimistic way of thinking, he’s like
• “,,, i guess u can call it a relationship now”
• *shyly takes ur hand* *blushes**chuckles and covers his face with his other hand*
• rest in peace, heart.
