Clemence Father

JONAH’S ROUTE JUST CAME OUT ON IKEREV TW AND I’M ON PART 12 AND I RLLY WANNA CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY HARM TO JONAH AND LUKA’S FATHER RN. I TALKED ABOUT HIM BEFORE ON LUKA’S EVER AFTER POST HERE BUT NOW IMMA TALK ABOUT IT AGAIN BC BELIEVE IT OR NOT, HE’S AN EVEN BIGGER ASSHOLE IN JONAH’S ROUTE.

BUT ANYWAYS HERE’S WHAT HAPPENED.

SPOILERS FOR JONAH’S EVER AFTER UNDER THE CUT

(ps the screenshots all have that orange recording button bc i want to look at them without having to go through the entire route again. sorry if they’re kinda annoying!)

Aight, so Jonah proposed to MC (well, he kinda just announced that MC is his fiancee from now on but whatever), and he decided to bring her to the Clemence house for this party to meet the family. Luka was there as well, standing in a corner. MC kinda wanted to join him in the corner as well, but Jonah dragged her off to meet his relatives. But they all seemed to dislike MC because she’s not from a good background.

Then, this dude enters the scene:

[Translation:

A dignified-looking man walked over here, looking at me, who is standing by Jonah, in surprise.]

And then, when Jonah goes to introduce MC as his fiancee, his father cuts him off by saying that he never heard of Jonah having a fiancee before. Like, Jonah was in the middle of a super serious and sincere introduction and his father just interrupted like that in a super cold voice. I was already starting to dislike him at this point, but I didn’t wanna fight him just yet.

Also, here’s something that kinda surprised me:

[Translation:

(His looks seemed to be similar to Luka’s, but his disposition...

(It seemed to be 50 times scarier than Jonah when I first met him...)]

I found it kinda weird how Luka actually took after him in terms of looks more than Jonah did??? Like, my original headcanon was that Luka didn’t actually look very similar to his father, which could be part of why he was ignored so much, but I guess he was ignored even when he looks like his father. Ouch.

Also, whenever the Clemence father makes an appearance, the thing that MC talks about the most is how scary/stern his disposition is. He must be someone really ruthless to warrant that kind of description.

After that, his father goes on to guess that Jonah had made the decision to bring MC without consulting anyone in his family because he knew that his decision would be opposed. I suppose that Jonah’s father does know him quite well, but it actually unsettles me more, because he seems to have no regard for the effect he has on his sons. Like, Jonah literally had to fight to keep his head up under such pressure.

So Jonah goes on to explain why he chose not to tell anyone about it, but his father interrupts him AGAIN with this huge speech about how the Clemence bloodline cannot be mixed with a bloodline of unknown origins. They have kept his tradition for hundreds of years, and that every single heir has accepted this fact and chose to marry someone of high social standing.

Jonah, naturally, was pretty angry, and told his father that he has gone too far. But guess what? This dude ignores him YET AGAIN and tries to convince MC to marry Levie instead of Jonah. Seriously. No wonder Jonah never listens to anyone else if this was the role model he had. I’m really starting to grit my teeth at this point.

Also, something concerning is how Jonah’s father knew that Levie is after MC, since that was classified information. Jonah confronts him about him, but he brushes it off by saying that he was the former Queen of Hearts and he has all the information sources he need. I wonder how powerful he was when he was Queen if he was still so influential in his retirement. And yeah, he totally strikes me as the sort of guy who would order Claudius to assassinate people...

But anyways, Jonah’s father tells him that he’ll pretend as if he heard nothing and walks off, even though Jonah tried to tell him that he wasn’t finished yet. What a guy.

Jonah leaves MC with Luka and goes after his father. Luka takes MC to his room and tells her something really sweet. He tells her that to trust “that guy” (Jonah) and to wait for him, which really showed his reliance on his older brother. Like, even though he rejects Jonah a lot and avoids him, deep down inside he still believes in Jonah.

And after a few parts we get a flashback where Jonah recalls the conversation he had with his father after he goes after him, and this is where my blood starts boiling.

So the Clemence father reminds Jonah, in a pretty harsh way, that when he had rejected marriage alliances in the past, he has always said that he’ll find someone better. He then goes on to call MC “that kind of person” (as in, a person of low birth and social standing), and Jonah gets pretty mad at him for that:

[Translation:

Jonah: Even if you’re my father, I cannot allow you to call her “that kind of person”...!

Clemence Patriarch: Don’t change the topic!

Hearing his father’s roar of fury, Jonah wasn’t scared in the slightest, and instead glared fierily back at him.]

I find it kinda interesting how the game refers to Jonah and Luka’s father as “the Clemence Patriarch” instead of “Clemence Father” or something. That would probably make more sense, because the term “Patriarch” can refer to a grandfather, an uncle, a cousin, etc., not necessarily a father. But I guess this highlights how his identity as a patriarch is prioritized before his identity as a father.

And then this scene happens:

[Translation:

Clemence Patriarch: Whatever you say! There is nothing more to say, get out.

Clemence Patriarch: In order to prevent the failure of the first, we still have a second.

Clemence Patriarch: I will disown you as my son, and make Luka the heir of the family, and then he’ll be the one to marry a high-born noble lady.]

DUDE WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

IT DOESN’T WORK LIKE THAT??????????? YOU CAN’T JUST DECIDE THAT YOUR SON IS A FAILURE WHEN HE DOES ONE (1) THING AGAINST YOUR WILL AND TOSS HIM OUT AND MAKE YOUR OTHER SON THE HEIR???????????????????

Honestly he makes Jonah and Luka sound so expendable, and that’s really not okay. They’re human beings, his own SONS, not an object to be thrown away when it served its use. Like, if I had any doubts about why Luka left his family before, this scene just explained everything. Who would want this guy as their parent?????

And of course, as the best nii-sama in the world, Jonah caves.

[Translation:

Even though he wanted to follow through with his own ideals, he couldn’t let his important brother, Luka, be sacrificed.

Not only would Luka have to bear the burden as the heir, a burden that he has been bearing for many years,

And he would marry some lady who he has never met before, this absolutely cannot happen!

Jonah: Just this one thing...please don’t do it.

Jonah could only bend to his father’s will.]

JONAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY POOR BBY LET ME GIVE YOU A HUG (っ˘̩╭╮˘̩)っ

He’s literally in an impossible position right now. If he wants to marry the love of his life, he would have a sacrifice his precious brother, and if he wants to protect his brother, he would have to sacrifice his fiancee. If he wants to keep them both safe, then the only real solution would be to leave the Clemence family.

Come on, Cybird. Y’all made him turn against the Red Army in his original route and now you’re making him turn against his family now??? When will the torture for Jonah and his stans ever end??????????

And here’s a few other lines from the Clemence Patriarch to disgust you:

[Translation:

Clemence Patriach: I am a generous and maganimous person.

Clemence Patriach: As long as the Clemence bloodline is protected, I don’t care if the heir is you or Luka.]

......I literally have nothing else to say.

Istg this dude is the worst parent in the Red Army, and the Red Army is already brimming with awful parenting skills. Lancelot’s father pretty much neglected him and Edgar’s uncle straight-up abused him, but you could still tell that they cared about their sons in their own little twisted ways. Lancelot’s father eqipped him with all the skills he would need to be King, and Claudius took all responsibility for the Bright family business in the end, protecting Edgar. And then we have the Clemence father who’s all like: i MaDE TwO kIDS foR a reASoN anD ThAt iS To HAVE ONE OF THEM REPLACE THE OTHER/USING ONE OF THEM TO THREATEN THE OTHER IF THEY MESS UP. ALSO NEITHER OF THEM MATTERS APPARENTLY BC THEY’RE BOTH JUST TOOLS FOR CARRYING ON THE BLOODLINE.

DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE.

I get that this is only part 12 and he’s probably going to have a redemption scene or at least some whitewashing at the end, but STILL. I really, really, really, really, really don’t like Jonah and Luka’s father.

#ikemen revolution #ikerev #jonah clemence #luka clemence #clemence father #clemence patriarch #ikerev jonah #ikerev luka #i literally hate him so much #i thought claudius won the a+ parenting award #but nah #this guy obliterated him #best nominee no doubt #god i hate him so much

✧ 𝐢𝐢𝐝𝐚 𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐲𝐚 𝐜𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐡 𝐡𝐜𝐬

pairing: iida tenya x gender neutral!reader

warnings: none, except for bad writing.

author’s note: this is my first time posting mha fic, so please take it easy on me! i do NOT know if any of this is gonna format right. please bear with me.

key: *y/n=your name & y/f/s=your favorite snack

Iida Tenya with a crush on you would include...

constant verbal affirmation

“that move was extremely skillful! where did you learn to do that?!”

“did you have work done on your suit? it seems to have improved! maybe it’s just you who's improved...”

“congratulations on your high grade! i’m impressed!”

not that he didn’t expect you to do great, he knows what you’re capable of and that’s why he likes you so much.

your motivation to progress has him 🤩🤩🤩

let’s face it, he’s starry eyed over you

let tenya be soft challenge

he’s overprotective of you but he doesn’t quite know why

not because he thinks you’re weak, but because he knows that the world is cruel

he knows you can handle anything life throws at you, but he doesn’t think you deserve to be hurt in the many ways the world breaks people

he would definitely walk you to your room after school, saying it’s for safety reasons (he wants to punt Mineta into next week, but has to restrain himself as class rep) when in reality it’s not ONLY about that... he also wants an excuse to see you outside of the Professional Environment

people are different outside of school and he wants to really get to know the real you before he even attempts to make a move

if you think he’s a good flirter, you’re wrong

he doesn’t know how to be smooth, but he tries SO HARD to be sweet to you

would desperately ask tensei for advice, not thinking, and would be SO flustered when tensei asks about you and mercilessly teases him about his crush

brothers am i right

he buys you your favorite snacks when you, him, and the rest of the squad study together

it’s so obvious to them that he likes you, because he’s never been one to lose focus during an Iida Tenya Scheduled Study Session

you’re the only thing that can distract him from his work (uraraka goes into tenya’s kitchen and asks where the snacks are just so she can make fun of him for it and not embarrass him in front of you)

“iida... can you help me find the y/f/s?”

“yes! i’m coming!”

“soooooo why do you blush every time. y/n talks to you?”

“if you’re implying there’s something going on, it isn’t funny. we’re just friends.”

“oh reaaaally?? is that why you congratulate them every time they get a question right in the study game?”

tenya isn’t a liar and so he doesn’t deny that he was, in fact, doing exactly that.

so he turns around and leaves the kitchen, taking the snacks she wanted with him

if you’re clueless in regards to his RESPECTFUL advances, it’d drive him insane bc he doesn’t want you to think he’s just being nice because he wants to date you but he doesn’t wanna scare you off either 🥺

every time you’re arguing with someone during class, he can’t help but interrupt and come to your defense, decimating their argument by pointing out a logical fallacy or mistaken data point (if you’re wrong in the argument, he’ll tell the other person to stop talking during class so you don’t embarrass yourself)

he’s cute like that

duh

baby boy would take so long to admit to himself he has a crush, even longer to finally ask you out

he doesn’t want to distract you from your ambitions, but he really, really likes you and it’s eating him alive

he’s not used to not being able to concentrate on his training or his schoolwork, so when he starts having constant thoughts like ✨y/n✨ y/n ✨ y/n ✨ y/n ✨ y/n ✨ it takes a toll on him and he doesn’t know what to do with himself

he’s had a few minor crushes before but he’s never ONE LIKE THIS

everything reminds him of you

working out? he wants to get stronger so maybe you’ll look at him more often

studying ahead of time for a test? (he’d do this anyway, but) he’s hoping that you’ll ask him for help so he can tutor you

don’t have a lunch? don’t be silly, he’ll buy you whatever you need

let him do it ❤️

he wants you to want him and need him

(the way he wants you and needs you)

the last thing he wants to do is disrespect you, so he’ll probably internalize his feelings for a long time until he absolutely cannot handle it anymore

please ask him out before he spontaneously combusts

he just doesn’t want to ruin your friendship

he feels like such a disgusting jerk, thinking about you at all hours of the day (and night)

he really doesn’t wanna mess it up.

anyway stan iida tenya

he deserves more love

love, tj 🤍

1- you know JC stans always try to deflect claiming LQR LXC LWJ and NMJ are all equally at fault bc they didn't stand for trhe wens either but JC and WWX are literally the only two people who know the truth about the wen sibs and he decided not to tell anyone so the public has no means of knowing everything they did and risked for him, they literally committed treason to save the jiang sect and protect them from the wen army but in the eyes of the public they are known as loyal disciples to WRH-

Thank you for the question anon!

Relevant passages in regards to this issue posted first since a lot of it gets very misconstrued with what blame lies where with the Sect Leaders before the events when it came to the massacre at Nightless City and the deaths of the Wen Remnants. This is not necessarily clean cut after the fallout with Jin Zixuan and Jin Zixun's deaths. This is also still with the underlying plot of Jin Guangshan aiming for the Yin Hu Fu. There is a lot of political intrigue that goes ignored with this by manipulation of the Jin Sect and Jiang Cheng being blinded by his own jealousy.

“… Four inspectors were harmed. Around fifty of the remaining Wen Sect members escaped. After Wei WuXian led them into Burial Mound, he summoned hundreds of fierce corpses to patrol the base of the mountain. Our people still can’t get any further.”

When he finished, silence filled the Golden Pavilion.

Jiang Cheng only spoke after a few moments, “What he did was indeed a bit too much. Sect Leader Jin, I apologize to you in place of him. If there’s any way at all to help the situation, please let me know. I’ll definitely compensate for things however I can.”

What Jin GuangShan wanted, however, wasn’t his apology or his compensation, “Sect Leader Jiang, at first, for your sake, the LanlingJin Sect didn’t intend on saying anything. However, some of these inspectors weren’t from the Jin Sect. There were a few from other sects as well. This makes it…”

Jiang Cheng’s brows were knitted. He rubbed the vein that throbbed at his temple and soundlessly took in a deep breath, “… I apologize to all of the Sect Leaders. Everyone, I’m afraid you don’t know that the Wen cultivator whom Wei WuXian wanted to save was called Wen Ning. We owe him and his sister Wen Qing gratitude for what happened during the Sunshot Campaign.”

Nie MingJue, “You owe them gratitude? Isn’t the QishanWen Sect the ones who caused the YunmengJiang Sect’s annihilation?”

Within these few years, Jiang Cheng insisted on working late into the night every day. That day, just as he decided to rest early, he had to rush to Koi Tower overnight because of the thundering news. He’d been suppressing some anger under his fatigue since the beginning. With his natural competitiveness, he was already quite agitated since he had to apologize to other people. When he heard Nie MingJue mention the incident of his sect again, hatred sprouted within him.

The hatred was directed at not only everyone who was seated in this room, but also Wei WuXian.

Passage 2:

Using the atmosphere, Jin GuangShan turned to Jiang Cheng, “He’s been plotting for a while to go to Burial Mound, hasn’t he? After all, with his skills, it wouldn’t be too hard to set up a sect of his own. And so, he used this as a chance to leave the Jiang Sect, intending to do whatever he pleases in the bright skies outside. You rebuilt the YunmengJiang Sect with so much work. He’s got a few controversial traits in him to begin with, and still he doesn’t restrain himself, stirring up so much trouble for you. He doesn’t care about you at all.”

Jiang Cheng pretended to stand his ground, “That probably isn’t that case. Wei WuXian has been like this ever since he was young. Even my father couldn’t do anything about him.”

Jin GuangShan, “Even FengMian-xiong couldn’t do anything about him, huh?” He chuckled a few times, “FengMian-xiong just favored him.”

Hearing the words ‘favors him’, the muscles beside the corners of Jiang Cheng’s mouth twitched.

Jin GuangShan continued, “Sect Leader Jiang, you’re not like your father. It’s just been a couple of years since the reestablishment of the YunmengJiang Sect, precisely when you should be displaying your power. And he doesn’t even know to avoid suspicions. What would the Jiang Sect’s new disciples think if they saw him? Don’t tell me you’d let them see him as their role model and look down on you?”

He spoke one sentence after another, striking the iron while it was still hot. Jiang Cheng spoke slowly, “Sect Leader Jin, that’s enough. I’ll go to The Burial Mounds and deal with this.”

Here the sect leaders were aware of the Wen Sect remnants as prisoners of war and saw it as a justifiable reason to keep the remaining Wens imprisoned regardless of age status etc. When Jiang Cheng is asked by Nie Mingjue for clarification on the matter of the debt owed by the Wen siblings it is deflected by Jin Guangshan and Jin Guangyao with clever wordplay to rile everyone up. This leaves those who either asked for more information, Lan Xichen who is shutdown by not having enough information by the majority and Nie Mingjue distracted by his hate of the Wens already, and Mianmian and Lan Wangji who argued that Wei Wuxian was protecting innocents and was not trying to cause a coup ignored as being irrelevant opinions. Wei Wuxian is eventually labelled a defector and danger due to Jiang Cheng exasperating what they had actually planned in the staged fight.

After this several months pass until Lan Wangji comes to tell Wei Wuxian of Jiang Yanli's marriage in a week's time. Several days later the Jiang siblings arrive with the same news and Jiang Yanli is the one to extend a peace branch to try keeping the three connected with the courtesy naming or Jin Ling. Almost a year's time later Wei Wuxian is in fact invited to the one-month celebration as another peace branch by Jin Zixuan who was the one to extend the offer. Jin Guangshan, Jin Zixun and Jin Guangyao planned the murder of Wei Wuxian in Qiongqi Pass against Jin Zixuan's knowledge. This leads to the mess of his murder and Wei Wuxian being hunted down as well as all of the remaining Wens on order of Jin Guangshan in retaliation after Wen Qing is killed as the remaining leader of the Wens and Wen Ning secretly suppressed. This leads to days later to the Pledge Conference at the city which holds Jin Zixuan's body and Jiang Yanli who is there to keep the death vigils (Shou Ling) as family. It's also why her and Madam Jin are wearing the white robes when Wei Wuxian sees them and by bad luck comes across the sect leaders pact when he tries to flee.

After the the wine had seeped into the dirt, Jin GuangShan stated, “No matter the sect, no matter the surname—this cup of wine is to the soldiers who have died.”

Nie MingJue, “May their souls live on.”

Lan XiChen, “Rest in peace.”

Jiang Cheng, however, still had on a darkened expression. He didn’t say anything even after he poured the wine.

Afterward, Jin GuangYao walked out from the LanlingJin Sect’s array and presented with both hands a square box made of black iron. Jin GuangShan took the box with one hand and raised it high in the air, shouting, “Here lies the ashes of the Wen Sect’s remnants!”

After he spoke, he sent forth his spiritual energy and shattered the box with his bare hand. The iron box broke into pieces, and white dust drifted alongside the cold wind.

A scattering of the ashes!

A series of cheers exploded through the crowd. Jin GuangShan raised his hands, signaling for the people to be quiet and listen to him talk. When the cheers slowly died down, he continued, raising his voice, “Tonight, the ones whose ashes had been scattered were the two leaders of the Wen Sect’s remnants. And tomorrow! It will be the rest of the Wen-dogs and—the YiLing Laozu, Wei Ying!”

Suddenly, a low laugh interrupted his grand speech. The laugh was too untimely, sounding both stark and jarring. In unison, the crowd turned to look at where the sound came from.

The Palace of Sun and Flames was a rather magnificent palace. A total of twelve ridges made up its roof, and at the end of each ridge were eight heavenly beasts. Yet, right now, the people realized that on one of those ridges, there were nine. The laugh from before came from over there!

The extra beast shifted slightly. The next moment, a boot and a corner of black clothes dangled down from the roof, swaying softly.

Everyone placed their hand onto their sword hilt. Jiang Cheng’s pupils shrunk. Blue veins lined the back of his hand.

Jin GuangShan was overcome with both shock and hatred, “Wei Ying! How dare you show yourself here!”

The person opened their mouth to speak. What came out was indeed Wei WuXian’s voice, but he spoke in a strange tone, “Why should I dare not show myself here? Do you people here even add up to three thousand? Don’t forget that back in the Sunshot Campaign, let alone three thousand, I’ve fought against five thousand on my own before. And by appearing here, haven’t I granted your wish? No need for you to come all the way to my home tomorrow to scatter my ashes.”

A few of the QingheNie Sect’s disciples died in the hands of Wen Ning as well. Nie MingJue spoke coldly, “What arrogance.”

Wei WuXian, “Haven’t I always been arrogant? Sect Leader Jin, how does it feel, having slapped yourself in the face? Who was the one that said he’d let the matter go if the Wen siblings went to Koi Tower and gave themselves up? And who was the one that just said he’d scatter my ashes and the ashes of the rest of the Wen Sect’s remnants tomorrow?”

Jin GuangShan, “Let’s consider things as they stand! At Qiongqi Path, you slaughtered over a hundred of the LanlingJin Sect’s disciples—this is one thing. You made Wen Ning kill at Koi Tower—this is another…”

Wei WuXian, “Then let me ask you, Sect Leader Jin, at Qiongqi Path, who was the one being ambushed? And who was the one to kill? Who was the main schemer? And who was the one being schemed against? In the end, just who was the one that came to provoke me first?”

Keep in mind none of the other sect leaders were privy to the scheme between Jin Guangshan, Jin Guangyao and Jin Zixun. And they believe they are certainly fighting off a crazed Wei Wuxian and what they think are his fodder Wens meant for corpses. After this Wei Wuxian desperately fights against Lan Wangji who is trying to calm him down before it's too late which is unsuccessful leading to Jiang Yanli also trying to calm him down enough to get him away and talk some sense to get him out of there to run and get to the Wens. After her death he mentally blacks out and Lan Wangji is left trying to take him away to safety close enough to Burial Mounds. Lan Wangji then fights off his elders as Lan Xichen gathered the Lans to find them. Immediately after this is in sequestered secrecy Lan Wangji is punished. Lan Xichen presumably stays with his own brother while Lan Qiren is the acting Sect Leader for the actual Siege that the other three are part of as support. That leaves Jin Guangshan with the ulterior motive of getting the Yin Hu Fu, Jiang Cheng who wants revenge for the death of Jiang Yanli, and Nie Mingjue left to think he is killing what he considers disgraceful Wens.

So, in short, each of them had different motivations for actually being there, and different accounts for those reasons. The Jins for more power, Jiangs for revenge, Nies for justice and the Lans in solidarity. And the fault of it isn't meted out equally as all had misunderstandings and manipulated by Jin Guangshan's pull to each of their morals as cultivation sects. In the end each of the four were there to kill the Wens and Wei Wuxian aside from Lan Wangji and arguably Jiang Yanli when she was caught up trying to get Wei Wuxian to run.

unfollow me if you don’t care about personal content bc this blog is no longer a stan blog tbh

piano lesson no #2 went well. we worked the same section of my chopin waltz to absolute death and i felt only vaguely better about it but she gave me a ton of homework related to it so that’s a yeehaw.

elena: (sincerely) i hope it’s not too much work

me: (honestly) not at all!

elena: okay let’s move to prelude now.

end of lesson resulted in a page of homework for three pieces (which is thrilling). i got compliments on my spider hands (”wow. your hands.”).

remark of the lesson

elena: (after i made a mistake repeatedly and got frustrated) okay that’s it. you do ten times. this time correct. here we go. ONE.

me: *does it correctly*

elena: GOOD-TWO.

me: *does it incorrectly*

elena: i don’t meant to yell at you.

me: (sincerely) you’re not!

elena: okay-THREE

to clarify: she was not at all yelling, but it’s nice to know she’s aware of herself.

also i forgot to mention this in the other posts but like she...moves around while she’s teaching? one minute she’s on my left conducting whatever i’m doing with the left hand, next minute she’s on the right showing me on the instructor piano what to do, next minute she’s craning over my shoulder and either saying “i can see your nails” (means i’m playing with flat fingers) or crouching beside me saying “you’re petting the keys. fall on them. don’t pet.” Muriel just sat on a chair beside me and watched and interrupted constantly with corrections.

why am i getting along / learning so much more with Elena than i did after four years with Muriel??...i’m sad about this. apparently the ~french pedagogy~ is very mechanical and adheres to pieces rigidly, whereas russian technique is based on mastering musical theory and once you know the rules, adding eMOTION. you’d think it’d be the other way around but idk. anyway Muriel used to get on my case for moving my body or using eMotion and Elena is like “LeeeAANNN into the first note. Nod your a head a little toward last note ANNNNDDDDD LEEAAANNN again!!!!”

i LOVED Muriel because she was strict but honestly maybe she was too strict? i came out of the lesson feeling like i’d accomplished nothing and wasn’t able to concentrate on the homework she’d given me when i practiced. the one piece i actually liked and played well was the one she decided i wouldn’t play at the recital and instead made me do this stupid Handel one that was technically more demanding but boring as hell.

Elena took one glance at the Chopin waltz i’d brought and was like okay we’re tightening this up! I thought I’d have to play the sad Chopin Nocturne or a Romance sans paroles by Fauré but she just picked up the waltz immediately and i didn’t realize it was my strongest piece until i found i felt comfortable playing it in front of a stranger. anyway god bless.

#i should honestly take progress videos

Creating Chaos for the Right Reason | A Shrimp Gremlin Villain!Stephen ficlet

a/n: i finished writing this and decided to post it now that I’m back from hiatus! this is the direct sequel to Looking Forwards, Backwards, Now at You or whatever the prequel to the housewarming party series is called! Stephen basically goes out and puts some people in their place,, and continues the saga of trying to blend shrimp. Also i established that Stephen and Sam have a good rapport bc it’s my story i get to choose the friendships

SoHo, 5:13am

Shrimp Gremlin Lesson #1: Love is great motivation when appropriate. Don’t take this piece of advice out of context.

There was work to be done. Stephen didn’t want to do it, didn’t want to untangle himself from Tony who was finally asleep and at peace. It was probably selfish to leave his partner to wake up alone… but something had to be done and it was better if Tony didn’t know the specifics. He wasn’t opposed to the idea of Stephen getting into fights with some of his coworkers, but that didn’t thrill him either. He didn’t want to cause any conflict but he also never told Stephen *not* to cause a scene. To the Coconut Shrimp Gremlin there was never a bad time to cause a scene where love was involved, and Stephen’s mind was made up: it was time to open a can of whoop ass.

It was time to reluctantly get out of bed and open a can of whoop ass, and hopefully not take too long so that he could surprise Tony with breakfast in bed*. That was the plan. With the mental promise of bagels and relaxation before their housewarming party that night, Stephen reluctantly slid out of bed.

++++

The Avengers’ Compound (Upstate NY), 6:05am

Shrimp Gremlin Lesson #2: If you are going to find your fiancé’s trashy ex, spending forty (40) minutes on looks before you fight him is never a waste of time.

“Colonel Rhodes, if I bribe you with a bagel will you tell me where Rogers is?” Stephen asked.

“I don’t think I need a bribe,” Rhodey replied. “I had a feeling you’d show up sooner or later.”

“I skipped making my shrimp protein shake to get here early… and to avoid waking up Tony. I don’t think frozen shrimp are supposed to go in a Vitamix,” Stephen said. “Alas, here I am.”

Rhodey stared at him for a minute. “Maybe try a NutriBullet. Anyway, Steve is at the park, out for a run with Sam right now, but you didn’t hear that from me.”

Stephen nodded and opened a portal. “Thanks Rhodey.”

“If it wasn’t for Tony, I wouldn’t condone whatever you’re about to do,” Rhodey said. “Be careful.”

Stephen nodded and stepped through the portal just as Sam and Steve ran past. Jogging up to Sam, Stephen decided to run backwards and show off a little bit. “Wilson! Good morning.”

“Why are you jogging backwards?” Sam asked. “Should I have gotten you a treadmill with a backwards function as a housewarming present?”

“No… we already have a treadmill,” Stephen replied. “But a gift is required.”

“Don’t go to the party, Sam! He’ll torture you!” Steve “warned.”

Stephen scoffed. “It’s amusing how you can make little torture jokes, as if you didn’t just betray Tony so our mutual enemies would capture and torture him. What the fuck is wrong with you?”

“What’s wrong, villain? Tony doesn’t want to be with you anymore because he sees you for what you are?” Steve asked. “Maybe he’ll come crawling back to me, even if I told him I could never love him after what he did.”

Stephen stopped running and flung an arm out to stop Steve and Sam. “Wilson, I need you to let me know when it’s 7:00. I’ll give you a bagel from a good deli in SoHo if you do me this favor.”

“Get an extra for Bucky and we have a deal,” Sam replied.

Stephen nodded, turning his attention to Steve. “Everything Tony did was self defense. You put him in a position where he’d get hurt, and you did so knowingly. I hate to leave him to wake up by himself, but someone had to kick your ass and that someone had to be me. I don’t want you in my house later, I don’t want you at my party but I’m still going to allow you to be in my presence. I won’t, however, let you even try to infringe upon my happiness. Do you understand?”

“Or what?” Steve asked.

“I don’t think you want to know,” Stephen replied. He didn’t want to waste his magic or energy on hurting Rogers, but he didn’t have to know what the sorcerer had planned. Plus, Stephen just found a manuscript of magical pranks that The Ancient One wrote in the 90s, and it was just waiting to be read.

“I don’t think Tony would like the fact that you’re willing to hurt me for him, he still cares about me,” Steve said, obviously trying to get a rise out of Stephen.

“Neither Tony nor I like the fact that you’ll throw him into harm's way for your own benefit. That’s not love—”

“And you know what love is?” Steve interrupted.

Sam, quite literally in the middle of them, was watching the confrontation like a daytime soap opera. The look on his face indicated a longing for popcorn and a cold beverage. He watched, with some trepidation, as Stephen opened his mouth to reply.

“I’m not perfect at love, but I’m trying my best. Do you think I don’t know all of the things you say about me? I don’t think I’m good enough for Tony either, and I tell myself that almost everyday. What’s just happened has made me unsure of myself and my ability to keep him safe, and even though I know how capable he is I just want to protect him from anything that can hurt him. That’s including you and me, by the way, but I’ll be damned if I don’t try to give him the world the way he does for me,” Stephen replied.

An awkward silence stretched out between the three of them, broken by Sam sniffling.

“That was… heartwarming,” he murmured, using Steve’s shirt as a tissue. “You seem like a good guy, Strange, albeit a little… strange.”

“No bagels for you!” Stephen teased. He sighed. “I’m going home. I don’t want to be around Rogers any longer than I have to, and more importantly I want to be with Tony. The dress for the party tonight is smart casual, by the way. Wilson, have FRIDAY order your bagels and breakfast for Rhodey, it’s on me.”

Steve was, blessedly, still silent as Stephen gracefully stepped through a portal into his apartment, a glimpse of Tony’s sleeping face obscured by the closing of the golden circle.

++++

SoHo, 6:42am

Shrimp Gremlin Lesson #3: You don’t have to love someone to feel whole, but the feeling of being loved is quite nice. Stan Tony Stark.

Stephen’s plan was to re-enter quietly and read until Tony woke up, but he blew it by stubbing his toe on the corner of the bed and cursing colorfully.

“What are you doing Steph?” Tony asked sleepily, his head resting against Stephen’s shrimp plush/pillow.

“I stubbed my toe,” Stephen muttered, sitting on the edge of the bed. “How did you sleep?”

“Surprisingly well,” Tony replied, sitting up and snuggling into Stephen’s arms. “What are you up to? Did you try to put shrimp in the blender again?”

“No… but earlier Rhodey suggested a NutriBullet might be the optimal blender for a shrimp protein shake,” Stephen said.

“I’m just going to gloss over the fact that he’s wrong about that for a minute. Did you go upstate?” Tony asked.

Stephen nodded sheepishly. “There were just some things I wanted certain coworkers of yours to know before the party tonight, that’s all. No one got hurt… unless you count Steve’s pride and an under armor workout shirt which Sam used as a tissue.”

“I’m not going to ask about that right now,” Tony muttered. “It’s too early.”

He flopped onto his back again, settling into the nest of pillows on the bed. Stephen quickly changed back into pjs and joined him, pulling Tony close and playing with his hair.

Tony yawned, pressing his head against Stephen’s chest to listen to his heart. “Your heartbeat is good music to sleep to,” he murmured.

Stephen blushed. “You say the sweetest, most nonsensical shit when you’re falling asleep. I love you.”

“I love you too,” Tony replied, tracing a heart on Stephen’s cheek. “You know I love you and trust you with everything that I am and have, right?”

Stephen nodded, even as the motion was a bit awkward with Tony’s hand on his face. His eyes were watering up and he gave Tony a soft kiss. “Yeah, I do.”

“Good,” Tony said, smiling and snuggling closer to Stephen. “One last thing before I go back to sleep: shrimp is not meant to be blended.”

“Says who?” Stephen retorted, giggling to himself. “You’re probably right though.”

“I’m always right,” Tony whispered. “Now shh, I need my beauty rest before the party tonight.”

Stephen smirked. He was about to say something about Tony inventing beauty, but a soft snore indicated that he was gone already and wouldn’t hear it. Not to worry, Stephen planned on shamelessly telling Tony that as soon as they woke up later.

Homewreckage.

@sv-ev asked for Stan Frederick fanfiction. I, being the loch ness monster at the bottom of the Slenderverse cesspool, obliged.

80% awful comedy, 20% awful melodrama and 100% bullshitted nonsense, this is the antitheses of “In-Character” writing. I hope you still enjoy it, dude, and that is makes you laugh.

(Also, it’s a “““ship”““ fic (bc ofc it is), so if you wanted to maybe you could convince that other guy to read it with you. 👀 asdfghioiuhgvb )

"We can't keep meeting like this," Stan says. His tone is flat and in the darkness of the motel room, his expression is hidden. Like always, Noah notes bitterly, he keeps himself unreadable.

Noah snorts. "Uhh, whose idea was this in the first place, Stan? It sure as fuck wasn't mine."

Stan drags his hands down his face with a long, drawn-out sigh. Noah had a point, but Noah was also kind of a bitch.

He twists his wedding band between his fingers and reminds himself that he only loves Noah for his sweet, sweet bod. Much like the very heterosexual Harvey Milk or Oscar Wilde, Stan was not gay-- he simply appreciated the male form. He especially appreciated Noah's flat ass and unkempt beard when he was pounding him into the mattress-- platonically, of course.

"So, what? You wanna break up?" Stan suggests, tired. That would probably be the best solution. As much as Stan would miss having someone to do weird butt stuff with-- since he could only do weird knee and elbow stuff with his wife-- it had become hard to justify all the trips down to Florida. Originally, he had just told Susan that Slenderman's tomb was in the tropical rainforests of Miami and that in order to vanquish him, he had to exum his horcruxes and expose him to the morning sun after destroying them.

Susan, who read Harry Potter and thought horcruxes were real, was originally sympathetic. But when it took him more than a few months to machete his way through the lush Miamian canopy, she began to grow suspicious. He had told her-- while hastily concealing the lipstick mark from Noah that decorated his collar-- that Suitman Mansuit had sealed a chunk of his soul in a Nokia cellphone and instantly her anger softened.

Fondly, Stan regarded how open-minded and magical his wife was. She was beautiful and loving and funny and perfect; their personalities meshed together well and every day with her was a gift. Unfortunately, as I mentioned two paragraphs ago, there was no butt stuff, and since Stan was a heterosexual man, that was enough to make him stray.

His thoughts are interrupted by a pillow right to his got-damn head. "Stop inner-monologuing like you're on daytime TV!" Noah shouts. His lips quibble, and as hard as he tries to perpetuate his internal anger engine, he can't will himself to stay entempered with his paramour.

"Of course I don't want to break up!" Noah flings himself into Stan's waiting arms. Noah looks up at him, eyes moist and shining. "Why can't you just leave your wife? I want to be together."

It was a loaded question, so complicated but so simple.

The long answer was Henrich's Theory or Fates. First studied in 1717 by Hemlick Henrich, the Theory essentially states that the time at which one met a person determined the relationship those two might have. The younger the age two persons are when meeting, the more likely they are to retain incredible importance in each other's lives. However, the persons one might meet in adulthood often fail to have a lasting impact. (It was for this reason that 97% of eHarmony users that has met their spouses online would later kill and devour them. [Citation needed]) It was a complicated psychological theory, and the second-most praised one in Quacks Quarterly, right after every single thing Sigmund Freud had ever written.

Stan had met Susan and Connor in his impressionable post-fetal stage. They'd all grown up together, forming an intense bond. As a result, Stan had porked both of them and married at least one. Noah, however, hadn't come into his life until many years later, when his brain had already formed a protective cocoon around itself in order to keep out the sexy (but negative) influences that came with adulthood. Specifically, telemarketers and the Amish. The short answer was--

"Dude, I'm straight. YOU'RE straight. 'No homo' doesn't work if we run away together."

Noah rubs his eyes and shrugs. "I just thought it could be a bro thing, ya know? Just us traveling the country in a convertible, sharing a bed in seedy motels." He smiles shyly, sniffling. "Maybe buy a house in the 'burbs together, adopt a couple kids. Have a garden and a dog. There's nothing gay about co-parenting a dog, Stan"

Stan tenderly rests his hand on Noah's own. With an equal amount of soft tenderness, he whispers, "Noah, co-parenting a dog is kinda gay."

Noah grasps his hand. "It doesn't have to be gay," he murmurs. "It doesn't have to be."

"But you mentioned kids too."

"Nothing gay about two non-related men raising kids together."

"Noah." Stan sighs. He strokes Noah's hair, pressing their foreheads together. "We need to be realistic. We can't go on like this."

"What're you saying, dude?"

Stan's eyes flicker down and he smiles, bittersweet. He knew this was coming-- he'd known it for a while. He should have brought this up months ago, when their relationship was fresh, not so attached. It would have hurt then, certainly, but not to the extent that it did now.

The words that rested on his tongue made his stomach churn and his lungs ache. A lesser man would chalk this up to heartburn, but despite the Supreme Taco Party Pack from Taco Bell that they had shared before holing up in their love nest, Stan knew deep inside that this feeling was not gas, but regret. Regret that he couldn't bifuricate himself into two equally handsome dudes, like a sexy little worm.

But he couldn't. He had to choose between the love of his life-- his shining star, his rock, his hope. The one whose very presence could paint the grey sky blue and who was also really good at everything, especially late-night cuddlepiles-- And Noah, who let him put it in for free.

It was a tough call.

"What I'm saying, Noah, is... we're brover."

Noah stares at him for a moment-- or, Stan assumes he does. It's still too dark to see- in stunned silence. Then, wordlessly, he gets up and dresses, most likely putting his shirt on backwards before he walks out the door, slamming it behind him.

Stan isn't sure what did it: the finality of the declaration, so much like a knife in Noah's guts-- or the shitty fucking pun. Like his sexuality, Noah's temper really could go either fucking way.

Regardless, as Noah walks out of his life, there's an enormous amount of relief. It was a euphoric release of burden, comparable only to the feeling one might get by telling every one of their Twitter and YouTube followers to literally fuck off.

Stan flops back into the bed, which still smells of...whatever it is people in Florida bathe with. Orange juice, he thinks. He finds his phone, with its bulky waterproof case.

Stan calls his wife.

college boyfriend!hyungwon;

somehow, someway... the frog prince has become a new lowkey bias of mine,,,, totally on accident

no accidents here we stan like men

so this post is for this request!! i feel like all i ever do is college boyfriend aus but they’re like... so much fun

now, hyungwon... no one knows what he does in college

honestly even his friends take turns guessing what his major is

hyungwon has so many different interests and he bounces from studying history to reading up on fashion to trying out his newest concoctions in the kitchen

everyone knows he isn’t majoring in culinary or anything bc boy cannot cook for his life

but who knowS??? chae hyenigma

but no matter what he does, he always ends up, somehow, near the art school of the uni

he finds himself strolling around, watching students with paint splattered shoes and graphite stained hands furiously drawing in their notebooks or taking pictures of the sky

maybe it’s because whenever he does walk by, students beg him for a pic

hyungwon, in his best gucci cream sweater and styling a louis vuitton backpack: oh,,, you want to photgraph me??? i wasn’t expecting this!! :)))

tbh he loves modeling

he loves people admiring him and he’s definitely aware of how handsome he is so he doesn’t mind it at all

but like, it’s usually nothing new

he’ll do a few unenthusiastic poses and the students eat it up like sunday dinner

part of him just kind of grows apathetic to the whole deal, going as far as avoiding the art school on days when he can’t be bothered to make the same two faces at their cameras anymore

but then he’s running late for a class and the fastest way to get to it is to cut through the art campus, so he knows he’s gotta hightail it out of there

he’s running as fast as his legs can take him, coincidentally, right past you

you’re a photography student tasked with the project of putting together a photo collage based off the word “warmth”

for the most part, you had taken a few pictures of the autumn trees and stuff but nothing really hit you with inspo

right as you’re posing on the ground to take a break, hyungwon flies by, the air he kicks up rustling your hair into your eyes and taking you by surprise

when you look up, all you see is this tall guy sprinting, a long white blouse billowing behind him and before you know it you’re snapping a picture

it’s beautifully hasty and actually kind of good, and you start to smile to yourself, looking up to where the guy has disappeared, but he’s running so fast that he’s around the corner before you can call him back for his permission

you decide that maybe it was just a fleeting glance, and the university is pretty big so you doubt you’ll see him again

wrong

it’s a few hours later when you’re in your dorm studying that you happen across him again

there’s commotion outside and you recognize a few voices yelling over each other so you decide you’ll get a peek on the #drama and maybe yell at them to keep it down

but when you peek out of the door of your dorm, you see

the back

it’s the guy you photographed earlier!!! maybe now you can ask for his permission to use the pic

there are two art students fighting over him, one grabbing his left arm and the other his right, complaining that they saw him first and they wanna use him as their muse

you feel kind of bad for him so you hope that maybe interrupting him won’t bother him too much

you gently tap on his shoulder and for a moment, you think he hasn’t noticed you, until he suddenly turns and

oh no

not this bastard

your hopeful expression falls as soon as you realize that the guy you photographed was chae hyungwon, and flashbacks of freshman year, a spilled coffee and a singed eyebrow come to the forefront of your mind

“you” he huffs, finding the strength to pull himself free

“you” you huff back, folding your arms across your chest, “what are you doing here?”

“i can be anywhere i damn well please!!” the two students are so frightened at the sudden hostility in both of your voices that they just slowly start slinking away, hoping that whatever they walked into they can safely walk out of

you had almost completely forgotten the asshole who had drenched your entire outfit in boiling hot coffee freshman year

and he had almost forgotten the klutz who had mixed up the wrong chemicals for a project and burned off half his eyebrow

he couldn’t leave the dorm for days. his friend hyunwoo had to hold an intervention about external beauty standards for a full three hours just to get him to get out of bed

and i mean it was bad enough for you that most people in your art school raved about how handsome he was and how he had specially picked them to model for and yada yada yada

all you could do was glare at each other, the tension growing thicker and thicker until hyungwon looks down toward your hands and... shit

you had your camera out, and the picture of him displayed on the screen

all too soon he’s smirking at you and plucking the camera out of your hands, effectively holding it out of your reach as he grins, “ohhhhhhh~ to think miss ice queen admires me too??? who would’ve known? were you coming over to gush about how handsome my backside is?”

you manage to snatch the camera from him while he looks at you all smug, “actually, i came to ask the stranger i snapped for permission to use the picture but due to unforseen circumstances i think i’ll just delete it”

your finger is literally hovering over the delete button, and while you have all the strength to do so, a feeling in the pit of your stomach make you think twice

bc this is the first time you’ve actually had inspiration for this damned project, and now you had to delete it bc of this damn guy

suddenly hyungwon is grabbing your wrist and yelling for you not to delete it at all

at first, you’re stunned by his sudden change in tone

he looks actually kind of remorseful as he holds your wrist, and part of you thinks he’s actually gonna apologize for being such a douche-

“that’s a really amazing photo of me, it’d be a sin to delete it”

growling, you rip your hand back, but he’s,,,, really latched on there,,, you didn’t know he had such a grip holy hell

and his eyes are swirling with... determination

“wait,” he actually pleads, “you can use it. how about an exchange, hm?”

“exchange for what?” your eyebrows furrow and the options going through your head do not sound pleasant. pleasurable, maybe, but-

“you take surprisingly nice photos of me. why don’t you take some more?” “what makes you think i want to take more photos of you? you don’t even know what i wanted to use this one for” “then tell me”

and to your shock, he’s actually looking pretty interested in what you have to say

so, very very reluctantly, you start to indulge him on the photo project you’re up to and its theme

you even tell him that the pic had been your first piece of real inspo in days

his eyes seem to light up a lil and he laughs, “perfect. then i can be your inspo, and you can take amazing pictures of me. sounds like a fair deal”

i mean... it kinda was

but this was also chae hyungwon we were talking about, the guy who hated your guts for really no good reason (the chemistry project was an accident, though no one really believed you with your wrists still healing from the coffee burns)

“why do you want me to photograph you? you literally just had two people fighting over that very right a few minutes ago”

but all he does is smile, shrugging, “call it a cease-fire. i was getting a little tired ignoring you on campus all the time”

and i mean, it’s not like you really have a lot of options at this point for inspiration, so damning your inner muse, you accept his offer

your cooperation starts off slow, with you two being extremely awkward around each other

the inspiration is there but you’re so used to the negative energy that encompassed you both that now that you have to be nice, it’s kind of weird

hyungwon can tell how stiff you are, because he’s just as stiff too

he’s never really seen you as anything but the person that almost blinded him tbh

but after he had seen the picture you had taken of him, he realized you truly had a talent with a camera

even the pictures you took that you didn’t like were still beautiful

you two would meet up at random places, take a few dozen photos, and then you’d scrap them all before you even got back to your dorm

after a while, he could tell you were coming close to your wit’s end, so he decided the only fix was familiarity

he showed up to your dorm one morning with two coffees and a big, fluffy red scarf wrapped around his mouth and nose

as soon as you opened the door, he was hissing and brushing past you, mumbling something like “i’m gonna freeze my balls off out there, why don’t you answer your phone?”

it’s only then do you realize what that faint buzzing sound was under your pillow

he’s just shoving the coffee into your hand, pulling his scarf off and going “get as warm as possible. we’re going outside”

after you’ve dressed up in something warm, you’re about to grab your camera but hyungwon stops you, and for once, he actually, genuinely smiles at you, “I don’t think you need that”

it’s cold outside for sure, but the view of bare trees and the ground covered in leaves of all colors is a sight to see with your own two eyes

your hands itch, wanting to capture it with your camera, but hyungwon is insistent that for now, you just need a break

he talks to you on your walk, indulging about himself and tugging info from you about your life and your passions

you even find out that hyungwon’s major is chemical science!! which makes a lot of sense after seeing how distraught he was that year when you had burned off his eyebrow mixing the wrong chemicals

he tells you that not many people expect it of him, and he never indulges because people tend to chalk him up to his pretty face and he’s just kind of accepted that no one expects anything more of him than that

but he also tells you how much he loves calculation and precision, and how beautifully interesting science and nature are to him

he ends up talking your ear off for a good hour about it, and you barely notice time has passed until you can’t feel your toes and hyungwon is walking you to a nearby café to warm up

he orders his drink and while he’s looking away you can’t seem to stop staring at the side of his face, his attention drawn to his phone when his friend kihyun texts him “how the hell are you awake this early???”

you take out your phone, and quietly snap this picture

as you look down at it, a lightbulb seems to flip on in your mind

“I got it!!!” you yell, startling a few customers and hyungwon

“got what???” he asks, placing his hands on your shoulders

“my inspiration... i know what i want to shoot now. come outside with me”

and you proceed to pose him, taking pictures of him kicking up leaves and laughing, taking blurry photos of him sprinting past trees and looking through shop windows

each has its own warm, simple quality

they’re not perfectly clear, but they remind you of the warmth of having someone to be in love with in the autumn cold

you even take a few faceless pictures with him, arms wrapped around the other or your hands holding cups of hot drinks

by the end, you’re so satisfied with the aesthetic of it that you feel a need to tell him

“hyungwon... thank you so much, you have no idea how slumped i was with this project until you came along”

and for the first time, hyungwon b l u s h e s

like... red as a cherry

as soon as you notice you point it out with a laugh, but he’s hiding his face behind his hand and blaming it on the cold weather

he ends up sticking around and watching you put the pictures together and it looks really great afterward

the sun has since gone down and hyungwon has quite literally spent the whole day with you

as you both sit on your bed, laptop burning your legs, you turn to him once you see the time, “oh, hyungwon, you should probably head home before it gets too dark”

and he just nods, unable to look away from you for even a moment

you notice his change in behavior but offer to walk him to his dorm, of that which he accepts

while you’re walking with him, he suddenly jolts out of his quiet reverie, “wait, if you walk me home, who’s gonna walk you home?”

and you just giggle, “i can walk myself home, hyungwon. i don’t know if you noticed but i have killer reflexes and an amazing swing”

and hyungwon is just like “:O glad i’m not an enemy anymore”

you two joke and bump each other until you’re about halfway to his dorm when he stops, looking over at you “how about we part here? then i’ll know you didn’t walk super far to get back home”

but before you can even put a filter on your mouth you’re like “why don’t we just exchange numbers and we can text each other when we get home?”

his eyes widen but he accepts, and you two exchange numbers

and maybe it’s the way you pick one of the photos from your “photoshoot” that day as his contact photo, or the way you giggle at the nickname you give him in your phone as “hyunnie”, or maybe it’s just the cool air playing with your hair as you giggle at the name

but he kisses you on the cheek

and doesn’t move

his lips are the only source of warmth on your cheek

and he’s got his eyes shut tight and he’s thinking “omg why did i do this why why why why i made it weird why why why why”

when he comes to his senses he pulls back with a grimace and grips his hair hard and just kind of curses the very moment he was born

until you hook your fingers with his and tug him into you, catching him off guard and making him stumble into you

he catches his balance right as you pull him in for a kiss on his cheek, giggling to yourself, “now we’re even”

all too soon you’re unfolding your fingers from his and he’s losing your warmth, but you’re waving at him over your shoulder and glancing at him every few feet until you turn the corner

and you text him when you get home first because he’s still standing with his hand on his cheek that you kissed like a fool in puppy love

even though you both have class the next morning, you’re texting well into the early hours of the morning, and you ask him on a date after he proves pretty shy about doing so

when you two start officially dating, hyungwon makes the café you two went to that fateful day your prime dating spot

you two even become friends with the nice lady who runs the place and she always makes sure to make your coffees at exactly the right time, because either you or hyungwon will come through that door with flushed cheeks, texting the other that their coffee is on the way

to hyungwon’s friends’ surprise, he’s actually a big fluff in a relationship

he acts kind of cool on the surface but you’ve managed to break that pretty easily

you’re kind of used as a defense whenever they need something from hyungwon

jooheon: *using you as a shield* hyungwon please help me with my homework please i love you!!!!

and you don’t really mind bc honestly his friends are adorable, you have no idea why hyungwon pretends he doesn’t know them in public

until you’ve been dating for two months and now you’re both coming up with strategies on how to avoid them at all costs

if you’re walking to class and see one of them in the hallways you both split up and hide in different classrooms until they pass by

if one of you gets caught.... well it’s every man for themselves lmao

though it’s pretty obvious hyungwon cares about his friends, because whenever they’re in need, he’s always there to help

even when it’s for the smallest things, hyungwon is always helping you

that doesn’t mean he’s void of scolding you tho :)

“really y/n? how could you not bring a jacket in this weather? here, use mine” “you’re sick because you left the house with wet hair, like i’ve told you not to a billion times... anyway, i’m coming over with homemade soup and cough medicine. i got the flavor you like so you better not spit it up this time” “i’m not wikipedia, y/n. you can’t just use me when you don’t listen in class. now turn to page 93″

he scolds you because he loves you, and because he wants you to be the best you can be in life

best believe that no matter what you do, he’s always going to be on the sidelines, cheering you on

he’s the first to tell you good job when you get a good grade, the first to hug you when you get accepted for the job you want, etc etc

hyungwon sometimes closes himself off tho, and it’s common for you to go a few hours, maybe even a few days not being as close as usual

but when he learns that he can trust you completely, you’re the first person he talks to

about anything

he becomes less shy indulging his emotions to you, and he lets you know you always have a clear, logical support system in him as well

you love his intelligence and you’re always the first to see past the superficial with him

but you’re also the first to get him to get him to do things he wouldn’t even do with his friends

even with the smallest things

like texting him this

you: hyungwon...... if you had to assemble a zombie survival team out of pop idols alone, who’s going first on your list?

hyungwon: it is 3 am.

you: i picked gdragon

hyungwon: jesus christ y/n, are you blind?? everyone knows you should pick taecyeon from 2pm

and it’s like.... kind of funny to you how he notices things about you that you don’t even notice

like even the slightest change in the part of your hair?? noticed. he’s probably going to give you his thoughts about it too

he’s always admiring you even when you aren’t looking, because he’s really fascinated with how he got someone like you

and he thinks fondly back on when you singed his eyebrow, even brings it up as a joke in conversation instead of what he considered “the worst month of my life”

sometimes tho, you’ll catch him staring and you’ll just laugh, “what? is something wrong?”

but he shrugs, unable to contain his fondness as he brushes his thumb over your hand in his, “no... not a thing”
