i accidentally stumbled upon a kotlc rant and now i’m all fired up soooo...... i might regret this later and it’ll probably be a bunch of jumbled thoughts bUT TOO BAD

Sophie - oh boy, SOPHIE ELIZABETH FOSTER. she... hmngmhngnhg. she has basically no personality and is quite boring. literally only cares about her love interests aka Fitz and Keefe. she hardly even interacts with anyone but them i feel. at least for long periods of time. and when she said whatever she said about Dex being “sensitive” girl wHAT just cuz he was sad and embarassed when you said you just saw him as a friend?! almost anyone would react that way! she degrades him as a small child who needs to be protected or sumn, even tho she doesn’t seem to honestly care about him much. he has literally risked his LIFE for your ugly ass. how can you not see that he is brave and cares about you deeply?!?!? (PLATONICALLY PLATONICALLY.) she pushes so many of her friends to the very back of her mind and rarely even thinks ablut them. there’s so much more but i’m tired.

The Council - USELESS. NO MEANING. NO PURPOSE. SO FRIGGIN’ POINTLESS. they do nothing useful, just ruin things and interfere with everything. we barely even know anything about most of them! Kenric was the only decent one, but he’s dead. creating Team Valiant? why? my brain is probably foggy on some things but WHYYY????

Matchmaking - why the frick does it matter what genes and talents and shuck are involved in a relationship?!?! i thought y’all were supposed to be a “perfect” community! (which is obviously impossible.) LET. THE. ELVES. BE. HAPPY. who cares if one has no talents and the other has one? yeah, sure, their kids might be talentless, but that would be fine IF YOU STUPID ELVES DIDN’T MAKE YOUR SOCIETY BASICALLY “if you don’t have an ability, you’re worthless. pointless. you have no meaning in life. go muck out some stables at the sanctuary for the rest of your indefinite lifespan of a life.”

Diversity - there are barely any poc and they’re rarely even in the books!!! no LGBTQ+ representation. only skinny ass elves, they all have “perfect” bodies. WHICH IS ANOTHER PROBLEM. elves are supposedly “perfect”, physically and mentally, which isn’t a good message for kids. 8-12 YEAR OLDS ARE READING THESE BOOKS. C’MON, SHANNON!

Sokeefe - i have shipped Sokeefe since the beginning, even when i was still shipping Sofitz and Sodex (which is another thing i’ll adress soon). but recently, it just... hasn’t been a good relationship. Keefe is SO IN LOVE with Sophie, and she’s just like.... ok. mgfngmhnh words are HARD sorry. but he cares about her SO MUCH and i think that she DOES like him, even maybe love him, but not nearly as much as he does her. i feel that she doesn’t appreciate him and all he does and will do in a heartbeat for her. sophie just..... isn’t good for any relationship.

Sodex - WHAT. THE. HELL. SHANNON. the first time i read kotlc, i was 12 years old and didn’t know a whole lot about... well, the world. but i knew that dating/marrying/crushing on your cousin or another family member wasn’t right (does that sound right?).... at least, that’s what i thought. rewind to when Sophie first came to the Lost Cities. she met Dex, and Dex developed a crush on her. i was like “awww they’d be kinda cute.” but then Grady and Edaline adopted her, so they were now cousins, so like, uh, no thanks. we don’t support incest. but my naive brain hadn’t fully connected the fact that Juline and Edaline were sisters, so Sophie was related to the Dizznees now, partially cuz my brain wasn’t (and still kinda isn’t) that great at connecting the dots, and partially cuz Shannon continued on with Dex’s feelings towards Sophie. so when one of the characters (i can’t remember who atm) mentioned them being cousins i was like “WHOA WAIT WHAT THEY CAN’T BE TOGETHER NOTP MA’AM” but Shannon still wrote (i felt) like they could still have a possible relationship ??? so, 12 y/o me, was contemplating if incest really was wrong cuz these are GOOD characters, and yes, good characters make mistakes sometimes, but not these kind of mistakes in KID’S BOOKS!

Sophitz - this is an emotioanlly/mentally abusive relationship, and yet it is depicted as a “Healthy and Happy Realtionship” in the books. WHAT ARE YOU TEACHIN KIDS SHANNON?!?!? HUH?!?!?

my thoughts may be a bit jumbled and i might have said some things that i didn’t know all the facts about, so i’m sorry if i did. hopefully this all makes sense and i won’t regret it later. i still enjoy reading kotlc and being a part of the fandom, i just think that Shannon needs to realize that she is impacting children’s views about things and the world.

#i'll probably regret this later #just need to get this off my chest #whoops #kotlc rant #kotlc #sokeefe #sofitz #sodex #shannon messenger #shannon #regret

college!seungmin

ok so

my friend made a thread(im not able to link it as her account is private) of skz as students at my college

and then i saw another thread of skz as college students

so here i am

major: law

club: photography

used to shoot his pictures on his dslr in auto mode until he joined the photography club,,, which fellow member hyunjin scolded him for

let’s be honest,, seungmin is that one boy in your major that everyone has a crush on

(you’d better be lying if you said you never have had an eye candy/crush on him before)

he came to school once with his hair up and every girl in his class wanted to set the school on fire bc that’s not the content they signed up for

and has his hair up more often,,,

not in a bad way tho bc he takes pride in dressing up for school sometimes and when people praise him for it he gets a lil blushy and goes (*^▽^*) thankuuu!!!!

if you’re in a project group w him you’re in luck bc seungmin always is super nice to his teammates and offers to lunch over work

(and also has his hair up for presentations,,, double oof)

sPeaking about presentations there was once he was looking especially fine while presenting about criminal law

and people were sneakily snapping pics of him

poor boy got so blushy he stuttered so much :(

honestly too nice to mark people down for peer evaluation but when they’re blatantly not doing work he’d not hesitate to give them a zero

you’d wouldn’t want to see him angry too esp when he hardly gets mad

meanwhile, you on the other hand,,, not so much

you have had your fair share of shitty teammates and you couldn't take it anymore

like,, have you been too nice to people for them to tell you to “just chill” when you get mad???? for legitimate reasons???

you just don’t get it

anyway

you and seungmin are friends bc he was your classmate since freshman year

and is the only one who you are somewhat familiar with in this year’s class

tbh you never really saw seungmin as someone more bc you two are kinda close and after you know him he gets kinda dorky its cute

like yeeeeeaaaaa sometimes you inevitably have the teeny tiny crush on seungmin but its no biggie

you guys are like close?? but not rlly bc seungmin has his own group of friends and you have your own

you are close with hyunjin but that's only bc y’all are on the dance team and besides, he’s in another major

seungmin always sits beside you in classes people think you’re his gf or sumn

but the people in the same class knows y’all are not bc you were the only one who snorted(too loudly) when seungmin knocked his head on the table while falling asleep in a tutorial

all the girls wanted to murder your ass for it tbh

seungmin is kind of your therapist in a way in which he lunches with you often and listens to your rants

be it about the iced chocolate in the cafeteria being watered down too much or standing on the crowded morning bus

seungmin is always that listening ear no matter what

quote hyunjin; “you should start charging her for listening to her rant about the school’s budget for the tenth time this semester”

also you; “i should start charging you for constantly making me stay back to watch you go over that same routine and song over and over again after practice.”

touché

moving on

honestly you weren’t looking forward to this year’s class bc the people in class r rlly gossipy and known for talking shit about others

but i mean,, you’re in school to get that degree,,, and not deal w shitty people right

WRONG

when the tutor assigned groups for a group project you were thanking the high heavens that seungmin was in your team

and as the team leader

so that no free-riders go to your team

it’s the week of submissions and there’s this member that kept giving excuses for not doing her part in the group report

and hence you had to do it because her parts were closely linked to yours and without her parts, you couldn't start on yours

seungmin had to help out too bc he feels obligated to as the team leader

and also feels bad??? bc he knows how you’ve been dealing w shitty people and now its another one

you honestly just want better people tbh

so like you just really couldn’t take it and went up to her face during lesson and said,

“hey if you’re not doing work i’m asking seungmin to boot you out bc you’re not doing your work”

nd she had the audacity to say,

“i did my work???? wdym”

aka write her name on the cover page

(and even spelt it wrong smh)

you rolled your eyes and huffed,

“i’m telling seungmin to boot you out, find another team.”

she just laughs maniacally which scares you, until she regains her composure and goes

“what? has sucking seungmin’s dick gotten to your pea brain?”

(that was so crude im sorry)

and she said it so loud the rest of your classmates could hear and started murmuring amongst themselves

you were appalled at her words, speechless as you could feel your blood boiling

“i must be right huh,” she scoffs, turning her attention back to her phone, “sucking up to the pretty boy to get good grades, how low.”

you really wanted to slap the living life out of her

before you could do so, seungmin slammed his hand on the table, shocking everyone

“you’re the one to speak, who did nothing but to put her name on the cover page of the report, and to the point of spelling it wrong,” seungmin seethed, which made you honestly scared of him

he stood up with his laptop and cancelled her name in front of her eyes, then pushing you behind him, “as of now, you are not part of our group. if i ever hear you bothering any of my groupmates, i will not hesitate to report this to the course head. i hope i made myself clear enough.”

you could see the fear in everyone’s eyes, as it was the first time that they saw him genuinely get really really mad at someone

the girl ran out of class crying, as you slumped in your seat, mind still unable to wrap around how she was so rude to you, hands visibly shaking

“are you okay?” seungmin asked, eyes now dripped with worry, contrary to his anger-filled eyes just moments ago

“yeah, i guess.” you bit your lip, opening up your laptop, “thanks, for standing up for me.”

“a frown doesn’t look good on you,” seungmin commented, “just smile now, hmm? it’s all over, and you don’t have to deal with her again.”

you look over at seungmin, whose brown eyes were still staring at you

you gulped, crimson tinting your cheeks as you looked away and faked a smile,

“yeah yeah, thank you for saving me, prince seungmin.” you teased to hide the blush on your cheeks

and weirdly after this incident seungmin has been kinda protective over you???

like offering to drive you to school

eating lunch with you more often

offering to drive you back home

basically sticking to you the whole time in school

not that you were complaining, seungmin has even been more affectionate?? kinda

sending you good morning and goodnight texts

smiling more often around you and laughing at your lame jokes,,, when normally he would just stone at them

to the point when your friends started asking if you and seungmin were dating,,, bc he just stuck by you almost every breathing second you’re out of your house

you had to keep telling them no until one day,,,,,, you confronted seungmin

as soon as you got into seungmin’s car, you asked,

“why are you doing this?”

“doing what?” seungmin laughs, stopping at a red light

“this.” you deadpanned, “driving me to school, driving me back, being so close to me, everything. we’re not dating or in a relationship either, so why?”

seungmin turned to you, looks at you dead in the eye and presses a kiss to your forehead, which brings heat to your cheeks

“you’re awfully dense for a law student, aren’t you?” he smiles, diverting his attention back on the road, “if that didn’t make it obvious already, that i like you.”

“h-how can you say that so casually?” you stuttered, burying your cheeks in your hands, “that’s not sincere enough.”

seungmin stops at another red light, then presses a kiss to your lips, and you were pretty sure your cheeks were hot enough to cook eggs on them

“is that better?” seungmin bit his lip, obviously shy at what he just did skskskskskskks

and you do say yes

cute

when he tries to be smooth and all but his face just gives his inner emotions away

you turn up in school holding seungmin’s hands from then on

and all the girls cried for a week straight
