expanding on the "luca was bullied" thing, because i knew i was going to give this guy some trauma eventually
#oc talk#kinda classic but he was always a shy and soft-spoken guy- and that made him an easy target for bullies who wanted to mess with someone#i imagine it wasn't an everyday thing though; more likely they would let him 'rest' and then suddenly attack#and it could turn very severe. but he never said anything to anyone because he thought it wasn't that bad and that he could handle it#things got worse when he started to be himself though-- he didnt felt comfortable using '''girl''' clothes yet but he would like#use cute stickers on his face or draw stars or hearts under his eye with eyeliner or have pink school supplies-- that type of stuff#so they saw him as even 'weaker' and well the bullying got worse to the point one day he came back home with a bruise#because he was beaten up after school. his dad got worried and immediately talked about with the director but luca was too scared to talk#so he just said it was an one time thing and that he probably deserved it-- alongside saying his pale skin probably made the bruise#look worse than it was; alongside not really specifying who were the ones that did it. honestly the school didnt really cared that much#so they just allowed him to stay at home for a week and then come back. but he was anxious that entire week about the consequences#plus his dad asking several questions about it bc obviously he was extremely worried!! but luca just avoided them all or give vague answers#when he came back not a lot happened in a month-- but he was always on the edge and tried to be as quiet as possible#until one day after school they grabbed him and locked him the boys bathroom; although the original idea was the girls bathroom#just to add an extra. they also told him not to make any noise and he did in fact stayed silent for half an hour#until he realized he was literally all alone and locked in a bathroom stall and started to cry. no one would listen anyway.#to make it short he was about to call someone he was somewhat friends with but his dad called him first as he was getting worried#after an hour passed and he still wasnt home. luca went sometimes to a shopping mall somewhat near the school to get something to eat#but he would always tell his dad about it so he wouldnt worry. and well hearing his son cry on the other side of the screen made it worse#even more bc luca was babbling and couldnt form sentences. after he calmed down a bit though he told him what happened#luckily everything ended up alright and he didnt had to spend the whole night in there but you know. the trauma was now there#and thats why hes claustrophobic now!#bullying tw

Alpha-17 and Obi-Wan being friends (derogatory) on 17's part and friends (threatening) on Obi-Wan's part is such an underrated dynamic
They could be so funny and terrifying, like Obi-Wan went through a soul shredding experience with Alpha-17 as his only company. They're friends because what else are you gonna be after you witness each other at absolute rock bottom from torture.
It's like 'dog put in cage of cheetah who's threatening to go crazy', except the dog is a grizzly bear and also threatening to go crazy.
Emotional support trooper except the trooper in question has never done any sort of supporting in his life and is actively an emotional distress trooper to a great number of the CC batch.
I want them texting everyday, I want Obi-Wan mailing handmade BFF bracelets to Alpha and Alpha sending pics back of him flipping off the camera but still wearing them, I want Alpha using Obi-Wan to keep track of and occasionally terrorize his cadets, I want 17 ending problems in the GAR (like Krell) before they begin because Obi-Wan has him shipped out on a personal transport at the first opportunity, decked out with slug-throwers Obi-Wan got him for his decant-day.
Natborn officers think this is all just an odd indulgence of General Kenobi, the Vode, however, correctly identify it as a goddamn threat and their danger assessment of Obi-Wan ticks up significantly.
When Alpha arrives on Kamino, Shaak Ti presses a shiny new comm into his hand. It has the Jedi Order symbol painted onto it alongside a smiley face sticker, and it pings immediately with a new message: Hello! I hope you're settling in well!
Alpha stares at the message, stares at the singular contact named 'OWK' and then stares Shaak Ti in the eye as he pitches the comm straight into the ocean. Shaak Ti's serene smile only grows larger as she calmly reaches into her robes and pulls out an identical comm, only this one has a frowny face sticker, and presses it into his hand. It lights up: I'm afraid we've bonded, Alpha :). Alpha shuts it off and pockets it with resignation.
Cody arrives on Alpha-17's personal recommendation.
A-17: He's the most difficult little bastard I have. You're perfect for each other. OWK: Thank you, he's very handsome :3 A-17: No. Stop.
The first thing he asks once he gets comfortable is who his general is texting so much that has him swinging his legs and twirling his hair. Cody assumes it's Anakin, given they seem joint at the hip anyway, but little does he know Obi-Wan's ability to consistently have the Weirdest Relationships Ever.
"Oh, it's Alpha-17, I understand you're familiar with each other?" Hmm. OK. Cody.exe is experiencing a processing error, please hold. He exits the room instead of answering. The next day he peeks over the General's shoulder when he's texting and sees walls of rambling messages from Obi-Wan. Alpha-17 replies every hour with a single text: Lose this number. Obi-Wan giggles. "He's so funny." he says.
When Obi-Wan meets the rest of the CC batch, Cody makes sure to stand perfectly angled so that he can record the reactions when his general cuts off their introductions with "Oh, no need, Alpha-17's told me all about you." It's always immediate FEAR.JPG followed by a slow spiral of What The Fuck.
What do you mean by that General. What does that mean Cody. What do you mean they text. No. Cody. What the fuck is happening, Cody. Alpha-17 doesn't have friends he has enemies and enemies he tolerates enough not to shoot on sight.
OWK: Wolffe reached for his vambrace? when I mentioned you A-17: That's where he keeps his spare knife. OWK: Hm that does explain the way he eyed me up, ambitious. A-17: Clearly not enough, he should have followed through. I taught them better.

thinking very hard about truck driver toji !
passing mention of sex but no actual nsfw content !
────────────────────────
lugging cargo across the country is no joke, with individual jobs spanning weeks at a time. fortunately, toji somehow ended up with you to keep him busy, his forever passenger princess.
a blurry picture of you two taken on a disposable camera hangs on the dash mirror. the shot is encased in a clear frame and strung up by beaded thread. you’re holding the camera towards the two of you, blowing a kiss towards the lense as toji stands with his arm slung around your shoulders. he’s smiling, a marlboro red pinched between his molars.
toji tries not to smoke in front of you most of the time, opting to pull over at a weigh-in station when his hands start to shake. he’ll kick the same pebble around while you stretch behind the truck, waving at the occasional biker.
it’s rare that men in his profession have anyone to spend the drive with, toji makes the most of it. the older man uses your little stowaway situation as an excuse to take you all across the country, picking up little keychains and stickers for you at every gas station the two of you visit. it’s hard to keep busy when all there is to do is pump gas and fuck, but you’re content with the little dynamic you have.
he’ll pull into a rest stop every time he starts feeling tired, dragging you into the driver’s side seat so he can cradle you in his arms like a little teddy bear. real sleep is done in the truck cab, under a weighted blanket he’d picked up at a strip mall in the mountains.
your “bedroom”, or the truck cab really, is a modest little room behind where the driver’s compartment is. toji tore out the twin sized mattress 2 weeks into your little arrangement, replacing it with a queen sized memory foam one. “a good investment” he called it.
you two rarely if ever sleep in there though. opting for the comfort of a hotel room over the glorified backseat of a sleeping arrangement his truck has. toji can afford it, that much is obvious from how much he spends on room service per week. the man had taught you that a truck driver’s salary was more than enough to keep a girl happy, and with how much you two had been on the road, he was easily reaching the 6-figure mark.
most people would get sick of being forced to spend so much quality time with each other. you never will.
you’ll never get tired of waking up in a different place every morning, spending hours exploring new cities with your favorite boy. you’ll never get tired the way you learn something new about him everyday. a new detail about the family he grew up with, a beauty mark you never noticed on his back, the way his nose scrunches when you say something funny.
you’ll never get tired of the way he stalks up to you after every other rest stop visit, hands clasped behind his back as he prepares to surprise you with whatever trinket he just bought you. and you’ll never regret your decision to be his permanent little sidekick, experiencing every day right alongside him.
────────────────────────
a/n: hii ! i rly rly love this au hehe, i might even like it more than prisoner toji. lmk if this should be a series, and feel free to send in related asks if u want :D

Protective Warden
~warnings: x wriothesley, unwanted touching by stranger (grabbed on arm), otherwise just fluff.
~a/n: thank you @harlekin6 for the idea🥰 i hope this satisfies your request❤️
You step off of the elevator, relieved to finally be off of it. Even though you've taken it for the past three years, it still gets tiring from the long ride. You check in at the entrance of the Meropide Fortress. It's a quick check in as usual due to you being known around here by the employees. You were known as the Duke's wife. You were a cute, bubbly, talkative, and outgoing person. The complete opposite of your husband. The workers sometimes wonder to themselves how you two ended up together. You didn't mind their questions, laughing them off because to you, you knew who your husband was. Only you saw his softer and teasing side, the part of him you fell in love with.
You planned to surprise your husband with his favorite lunch today, wanting to spend time with him due to his work schedule keeping him busy. He would usually return late at night after you've fallen asleep and leave early in the morning before you woke up, giving you two no time to spend together. While walking to his office, you greet the usual employees and notice Sigewinnie down the hall. Her eyes shine as she sees you, happy to see you again. After a little small talk, you ask her the whereabouts of your husband. She tells you that he was currently in a meeting, busy interrogating new prisoners. You planned to wait for him in his office, but Sigewinnie excitedly asked if she could show you some new stickers she recently made. How could you say no to that face.
You follow her to her little infirmary. She excitedly shows you all of her new stickers while you give her your full attention, happy to see her like this. You enjoyed spending time with Sigewinne as did she. She was like a daughter to you. She saw you and Wriothesley like parents to her. After a while of listening to Sigewinnie talk about puffy stickers, you both were suddenly interrupted by a rookie guard entering the infirmary.
"Miss Sigewinnie, I have a prisoner who is feeling unwell. Could you take a look at him?"
"Of course! You can bring him in." She said, getting her medical instruments ready. A tall man enters the room. He didn't look scary or dangerous so you thought nothing of it. Sigewinnie tells him to sit on the infirmary bed so she can check him out. You notice while he walks over to the bed, he keeps looking at you. You pay it no mind. It takes a few minutes for Sigewinnie to figure out what was wrong and she goes into an adjacent room to make some medicine for the inmate. The whole time, the inmate keeps watching you which begins to make you a bit uncomfortable. He begins talking to you, giving you compliments on how beautiful you looked. You were polite and thanked him but continued to be uncomfortable. You hoped the visit would be over soon so he could leave. Suddenly, he gets up from the bed and walks over to where you were sitting, deciding to sit in the chair next to you. He was a bit too close causing you to scoot away from him. You ask him politely to leave you alone, not wanting to piss him off by being rude, but he ignored your request and continued bothering you. He began to say more inappropriate things to you while eyeing you up and down. You had enough and got up from your seat, planning to talk to the guard waiting outside the room. But before you could leave, the inmate grabs your arm harshly.
"Where do you think you're going. It's rude to ignore someone where they're talking to you. It's not everyday I get to see a beautiful chick like you."
You try to break your arm free, sternly telling him to let you go. He laughs and doesn't let up his grip. You begin to push him away causing him to get mad. He pulls you towards him, his grip tightening causing you pain. You yelp. Suddenly, theres a loud crash as the infirmary door is slammed open. You both look over to the doorway and see your husband. He notices the inmate's hand on you and quickly moves over to him. Wrio roughly grabs the man's shirt, moving him away from you and getting the man to remove his grip on you. He slams him against the wall. Anger is evident on your husband's face while he silently glares at the prisoner. The room begins to get a bit chilly due to your husband's vision.
"Why are you putting your hands on my wife." Wrio coldly asks.
"Wrio." You put your hand on his back and gently call his name, wanting to stop him before he beats the prisoner to a pulp. He relaxes a little. He calls the rookie guard in and orders him to take the prisoner into solitary confinement.
"Y-yes sir!" the guard nervously says before he quickly takes the prisoner away. Once they're gone, Wrio turns to you with a soft look.
"Are you okay?" he asks as he walks closer to you. You gently smile at him and nod your head. He looks down at your arm, noticing a red mark forming where the prisoner grabbed you. His anger flares again but he stops himself, focusing his attention on you. He pulls you into a hug, wrapping his arm tightly around you while he strokes your hair.
"I'm sorry I wasn't here to protect you. What are you doing here anyways? I didn't know you were going to visit."
"I wanted to surprise you with lunch and spend time with you. It's been a few days since we've spent time together and I missed you." You tell him as you nuzzle into his chest. He chuckles from your cuteness of being honest with your feelings.
"I'm sorry I haven't been able to spend time with you lately. I promise I'll make it up to you by spending the whole day with you on my next day off."
"Deal." You giggle.
"Come on. Let's go eat." While you two walk to his office, he has your fingers intertwined, walking close to you to make sure you are protected. You arrive to his office. He sits in his chair while you go get another chair to put beside him.
"What are you doing?" He asks.
"I'm looking for a chair."
"Don't need one. Come here." He pats his lap. You blush, walking over to him. Even though you've sat in his lap many times before, you still get a bit bashful.
"But you can't eat if I'm in your lap Wrio." Without another word, he pulls you onto his lap, wrapping his arms around you so you can't escape. He nuzzles his face into your neck, leaving a quick kiss on it, making you squirm.
"Wrio." You shyly say. He chuckles at your cuteness.
"What did you bring me for lunch?" He asks, changing the subject.
"Your favorite. Steak with a side of vegetables and mashed potatoes." You say as you take everything out.
"Smells good. I bet it takes great. I always enjoy your cooking."
"Yeah, I don't explode the kitchen when cooking." You tease.
"Hey, that just means it's going to taste great."
You laugh. "I will give you that. Your food does come out tasting yummy even thought you ruin the kitchen. But I suppose it's worth it." You cut the steak, taking a piece on the fork and holding it out for him. "Here. Say ahh." You tease.
He sighs. "I'm not gonna say ahh but I'll still take a bite." He eats the piece of steak. "Delicious." You feed him the rest of his meal, taking some bites for yourself here and there. Once you two finish, he kisses you and thanks you for lunch. Even when his work schedule gets in the way of your time together, special moments like these make up for it.

“girlfriend effects” ( ꩜ ᯅ ꩜;) 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
habits that they develop from dating you.

you're just clumsy, but luckily your perfect boyfriend would come to the rescue everytime!
you felt dizzy all of a sudden? girl, he has a whole bottle of water and the medicine prepared.
the members would probably ask why he has a hair tie on his wrist.
all of them are just like they didn't believe that the song eunseok. carrying your items everywhere?? unbelievable.
and, no. he wouldn't take it off, even though the members were teasing him to death.
it's important for you!! why would he take it off?
— sungchan & kissing you everytime he got a chance.
this man has an obsession with your lips.

i might throw the "chance" aside..
bcs BOY, HE WOULD KISS YOU EVEN IF YOU WERE TALKING WITH HIS MEMBERS.
bro is that down bad 😭🙏🏻
he doesn't give a fuck, even when his members are teasing him for being too clingy.
he just loves you too much, and maybe that counts for your lips too.
wouldn't be ashamed if your lipstick stuck on his lips.
it's the other way, he absolutely loves when your lipstick marks him and would be proud of himself.
he can't stand the fact that he hasn't kissed you yet.
like everytime, i mean everyday, at least three kisses before he can go on with his day perfectly.
even when he's far away from you, a virtual kiss would do.
bro has a whole album of kissing memes.
— wonbin & doing your hair.
he loves it when you talk about how your day went.
bcs those faces that you make when focusing are just so cute.
but then a hair piece falls in front.
he will tuck it behind with a school girl in love kind of smile 🥹
like he's felt like falling in love all over again.
it felt like a romantic movie that he never expected to have.
everything is like a slow motion to him.
he loves it when you decide to tie up your hair!!
then he loves to braid, wash, dry, and brush your hair.
especially when you had a busy week and had no time to wash or do your hair.
he'll let you rest and let him do your hair.
everything is on him, don't worry!!
— seunghan & back hugging you.
this mann T^T
okay now imagine you're in the same house as him.
when you wake up just to see this fine man hugging you from behind.

really really love sending you pictures of him doing almost everything.
eating, practicing, even before sleeping.
he'll update you everytime he gets the chance!!
absolutely adore when you decide to send him the pictures of you back to him.
asking how your day went.
when you say it was suck, he will go straight to your house without warning.
he's far away from you? not a problem.
face timing is the solution, so go!
would never end the call, even when you've already fallen asleep after telling him your whole day.
screenshots of your pictures and put them as his new wallpaper ^3^
— anton & planning almost everything.
you know, how was this man obsessed with planning everything??
like he has everything organized.
so you don't need to worry that your date is on the same day and at the same time as your work or school.
bcs that would never happen!!
try to think of anything that you would never think of happening.
marriage ‼️
like yeah, he would have a whole note about the wedding theme.

my guide to wonyoungism, improve your life, glow up, be THAT girl:
🎀 have a routine: this is something I learned from being on therapy for so long. It is really important to have a routine because if not you can have bad sleeping, be tired all day, get bored easier, you won't be able to finish your responsabilities, it can bring you bad self esteem and in general is a complete mess.
Tumblr media
🎀 work out: always do what's best for you and do what you feel comfortable doing but please! work! out! I'm such a lazy person and at some point it was really hard for me to have motivation to do anything, but once I put my mind into it, and force myself a bit and started with 10 mins of pilates everyday (since it was something easy to start with) my life and my self esteem improved a lot. Working out is another way to have schedules and a routine, also improves your self esteem by making you feel capable of doing stuff, and ofc is good for your body.
Tumblr media
🎀 have a good skincare routine: first, do some research about your skin type and see what products can work better for you (you can also go to have a skincare treatment and ask the beautician or search on internet) but always do what's more comfortable and affordable for you, don't use stuff that influencers recommend bc you can alter you skin type based on the products you use too (as a beutician I know) Also don't DON'T do it everyday, some products can be used everyday like the cleanser but others not. As I said just do a good research. Besides skin stuff it's really interesting!!
Tumblr media
🎀 improve your diet: with diet I don't mean to specifically have a diet, actually I'm a bit against them, since being strict about what we eat can cause stress and guiltiness, it's really important to have a balance, eating healthy at the end of the day means nothing if you don't enjoy it. And you can enjoy it by having fun creating new healthy recipes, doing a journal about your fav healthy recipes, buying new cookware (pink plates, pots, pans, etc) or eating a hamburguer, a chocolate cookie sometime
Tumblr media
🎀 journal: this is something I do since 2014 lol it's without doubt one of the best things the human has created. It has helped me to improve my writing skills, to get to know me better, to vent about stuff idk how or whom to talk about, also make it fun! In my journal I vent and write about my feelings,fears, dreams, goals, etc but also write down my travels, concerts or fav kpop artists, decorate with stickers, a piece of confetti, even dried flowers!
Tumblr media
🎀 hobbies: this is something I also learned recently on therapy, I mean we all had hobbies from time to time but do we know about the importance of having them? I spent this whole year doing nothing since I can't work or study, and without hobbies I can tell you life is too boring, and it can lead you to bad self esteem too I mean, I kinda got crazier for spending so much time alone with literally nothing to do. So find new and fun stuff to do just for the pleasure of doing it, you don't have to be the best at it. I bet you can find hobbies ideas on YouTube as well.
Tumblr media
🎀 be more femenine: this is ofc an optional step but I think it can be important, since always either wonyoung or it girls usually look very femenine. Don't forget to make it a fun thing to do! Finding your aesthetic, maybe trying a new one, enjoy going shopping..you can be femenine with your clothing, with your skin care routine, with your jewlery...this is just about feeling beautiful and also powerful.
Tumblr media
🎀 improve your behaviour towards other people: with this I mean basically being more open. To meet new people, to make new plans...also fixing your body gesture (at least mine is shit and It always end up hurting my back and shoulders)
Tumblr media
🎀 affirmations: good affirmations are a thing, this I learned in therapy too. The way you talk to yourself is important and changing the mindset too. If you tell yourself "I won't be able" then for sure you won't. This is not an easy thing tho I know, but is a necessary thing. Forcing yourself to change your mind every time a negative thought pass by is a hardwork but is well payd, cause the price is your happiness. For this is VERY important to have some help and work things up in therapy. But to give you a little tip, surround yourself with good energy, put some pictures of good affirmations in your room, as background of your phone, even on a shirt!
Tumblr media
🎀 enjoy and trust the process: as I kept saying in each step, making it something fun to do it would help you to don't feel it like an obligation cause it's not. It's ofc a responsability to improve your life so you don't fall in depressed behaviours for example, but by making it something fun, then you won't feel guilty if someday you don't feel like functioning and need a lazy day in bed. And by trusting the process, we keep motivated to keep going.
Tumblr media
🌼hope this works for you, please let me know if so, have a great day and a great life! 🌼

Cater Diamond - Platinum Jacket (Voice Lines)
Following is my translation of the voice lines for Cater Diamond's platinum jacket card.
Spoilers after the cut.
Tumblr media
Summon
♦️: Woah, hard to believe this place's been around for 100 years already. I bet there's tons of cool stuff to check out. Come on, let's go have some fun!
♦️: Lemme get a quick shot of the museum before we head inside. Let's see, I'll tag it #reportingforduty and #museumPR… Kay, and we're good!
Tumblr media
Home Lines
♦️: It's the museum's 100th anniversary. That's insane!
♦️: From what I've heard, the country the Queen of Hearts ruled over was super photogenic. Gotta make sure our dorm looks just as good.
♦️: I saw Jamil-kun standing by that painting of the golden scarab over there. He looked pretty freaked out.
♦️: Huh, looks like they don't allow flash photography indoors. Lemme change the settings on my phone real quick before I forget.
♦️: I always thought museums were really stuffy, but today's actually been a lot of fun so far. The building's got a cool vibe to it, so there's def gotta be some cammable spots around here.
♦️: Honestly, I wasn't expecting there'd be a whole lot to talk about when checking out art, but me and Ruggie even chatted about makeup of all things. It was really fun.
♦️: You're curious about my art grades? The teachers tell me all the time I got a good eye for composition and color.
♦️: Check it out, I bought some mini-stickers of the great seven from the gift shop. They were too cute to resist. Maybe I'll put 'em on my guitar case or something.
♦️: You saw a painting where the Thorn Fairy's servants were dancing around a fire? I heard there's, like, a tradition or something like that in Briar Valley. You should ask Malleus-kun about it.
♦️: Jack-kun said he really likes it when the King of the Beasts looks all regal and stuff in artwork. Personally, I like the ones where he's just chilling out.
♦️: How come you keep staring at me like that, huh? Oh-ho, lemme guess. You couldn't resist how cool I looked checking out all the art, could ya? Hah! jk, jk.
♦️: Ta-da! Formal Caycay is on the job. Now come over here and take a selfie with me. Not everyday we get dressed up like this, ya know.
Groovy
♦️: Poor thing, sent adrift to sea like that. But I mean, you reap what you sow.
Tumblr media
Duo
♦️: Look good for me, Ruggie-kun!
🍩: Could ya put yer phone away already, Cater-san!
I've summarized this vignette on my Twitter account here.

This is my first time requesting but hear me out
You’re rin’s partner who’s hospitalized and rin came to visit you after the u-20 match but the bllk boys saw him buying flowers and going to the hospital as they were following him out of curiosity
hi anon! thanks for the request! this is so cute to think of jdjdidhd i hope u have a good day/night!
i did these in headcanon format because it was easiest for me to write,, i hope you don’t mind!!
warnings: spoilers!! proceed at your own risk
character: rin
a mistake meeting
Tumblr media
- RIN FELT SO BAD LEAVING YOU!!
- he literally thought of you everyday (god he feels so lukewarm right now)
- remember the phone privileges they could get during the first selection? probably uses it to text you because missed you so much
- undoubtedly tries to show off during the u-20 match to impress you (and sae)
- the day he goes to visit you happened to be the same day the blue lock boys hung out together
- the group catches him at the flower shop after their free dinner with the ex u-20 members
- reo probably has to hold bachira back from running up to greet rin
- ARYU KNOWS FLOWER LANGUAGE AND DECODED THE BOUQUET RIN GOT
- EVERYONE GASPED AT THE SAME TIME WHEN THEY HEARD THE MEANING OF THE BOUQUET
- it was roses and orchids to mean ��i miss you” but in a romantic way ;)
- they all probably stood silent for a good minute and just watched rin in disbelief
- they stood that way until rin started to leave the flower shop
- “let’s go follow him!” was bachira’s wise idea
- and so they did.
- barou left. he didn’t want to be apart of stupid acts.
- chigiri’s and yukimiya’s curiosity were the only reasons why they stayed. no one knows why nagi stayed tbh he just continued following everyone though
- tokimitsu was dragged by bachira.
- the rest were actually curious and didn’t mind following him
- imagine this huge group trying to tail a guy while trying to be discreet about it
- they got a lot of weird looks.
- karasu kept smacking the back of bachira’s head to get him to shut up
- the only reason they didn’t get caught is because they were pretty far away from rin.
- anyways the hospital wasn’t far from the flower shop
- it’s a WONDER how they got past the person who checks people in
- probably said they were with “that guy” (they pointed at rin while he walked away to the room you were in)
- another wonder is how rin still hasn’t noticed them
- yk how u get stickers showing you got approved to go further into the hospital?
-imagine how long this whole thing took 💀💀 all of them just dumbly standing in front of the sticker machine like 🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️
- if we’re being real and you could only have a certain amount of visitors (idk what the actual amount is help) they would send bachira and tokimitsu (they figured rin would go easy on them)
- we’re going to continue the unrealistic whole group visiting scenario though because it’s funnier.
- rin, still oblivious to this all, made his way into your room
- rin says he never cries but he was about to when he saw your face light up in excitement (im about to cry too.)
- IMMEDIATELY engulfs you in a strong hug, his head burying itself in your neck as he inhaled your scent
- HE MISSED YOU SO SO SO MUCH
- if you’re crying he will wipe your tears with the softest look on his face
- awkwardly hands you the bouquet
- also awkward with his first words with you
- probably stares at you with the soft look while a, “hi,” leaves him
- you guys start your conversation while the rest of the blue lock boys finally find the room rin went to
- CHIGIRI SLAMMED A HAND OVER BACHIRA’S MOUTH TO SILENCE HIS GASP LMAO
- meanwhile otoya is thinking of how to rizz you up 💀
- they watched in silence for a good minute, bachira taking pictures to send to isagi later
- they wouldn’t even have gotten caught if it weren’t for the nurse who loudly asked if they needed something
- at that both you and rin look back at the door and just see all of them dumbly looking at the nurse
- they’re so stupid help me
- rin immediately goes red STEAM COMING OUT OF HIS EARS
- please put a hand on his arm. it’ll remind him not to go ballistic
- the nurse awkwardly walks off, noticing rin’s now scary demeanor
- cue the awkward laugh with them all scratching the back of their head from the group
- except for bachira. “hi, rin!” he excitedly waved at him then at you. wave back.
- “hey, you were the guys who played with rin in that match!”
- your excited tone was the only reason rin hadn’t started yelling yet.
- bachira took that as an invitation to just walk in and start talking with you
- he probably sits himself in between you and rin on the bed 💀
- otoya absolutely flirts with you during this time as well.
- THEY ALL LOVED YOU THOUGH!!
- just pray rin didn’t kill them all after they left…

hello !! can i request for newjeans where they react to their s/o looking good in glasses and their s/o being popular due to their nerdy look?
will do !! thanks anon for this request, enjoy~
notes : this will be in high school au :)
hcs and scenarios ahead !!
⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
Tumblr media
— MINJI
the type of person to judge you a bit but soon to realize that you look even good with your glasses on. casually stealing glances from you during class, and one time in gym that a sport where a ball is included, you had to take off your glasses and you placed them by minji's seat. and almost everyone didn't seem to know you because you had your glasses off. and now you're known as 'pretty with glasses on, even prettier when off.' she's like, shocked, when you became popular because of it. she doesn't mind but the thought of someone crushing on you has been invading her mind recently.
— "hey, you look so funny." minji laughs, she hands you your glasses back after pe. and the both of you are outside, in the courtyard.
"how so? i just took off my glasses." you ask, rubbing your eyes before putting your glasses back on. minji doesn't answer as she stares at you, taking her time to admire your eyes.
"they're definitely right." she mumbles out of nowhere. and you don't know what she's referring to, you just spoke to each other just now, after all.
"what do you mean?" you tilt your head.
"that you look prettier with your glasses off."
— HANNI
doesn't mind at all! whether your glasses are on or not, she still sees you as her wonderful lover. but actually cares for yout eyesight, thought of something silly where you mistaken her as haerin. she just loves you and cares for you, but since you're getting a lot more attention and popularity, she was just happy for you. but still quite shocked because you weren't that popular when you first met. she loves to borrow your glasses, but she doesn't wear it over her eyes, but over her head. she has a lot of pictures of it on. and she sends them to you whenever she has one.
— "i love your glasses so much. it suits you the best." hanni spoke while sitting on her seat during break time.
"really? no one compliments my glasses, that's a first." you adjust your glasses so it doesn't fall off. hanni turns to you with a confused face.
"they don't?" she asks. not believing what you just said. how could they not compliment your glasses if you're this popular now?
"would you be mad if i tell you that they've been complimenting my face and not my glasses?" you ask, it's pretty much of what's happening everyday in school.
she shakes her head, "no, not at all. i actually agree with them." she smiles and nudged you playfully.
— DANIELLE
she has one herself! (i just see her with glasses in this high school au 😭). would ask you to have matching glasses colors and stickers. she prefers your plain glasses though, dani jokes about being harry potter when she brought a stick with her so randomly when you both went to see more glasses designs 😭 she finds you cool like the others, even if with your nerdy look, she'll love you no matter what <3 she's not against with you being popular around the school, but like minji, she worries about other people admiring you.
— "hello my little intelligent bird~" danielle hops on your side while you were checking some books in the library.
"bird?" you ask, setting what you're doing aside and turned to look at her.
"just saw a picture of a bird in instagram wearing the same glasses as you! but i prefer your version, it's much cuter." danielle shares with such joy on her face.
"i'm not a bird." you chuckled.
"you are, let me give an example. i tried to stop you from studying, but all you did was say, 'wait, wait, wait!'." danielle explains, she looks at you with an expecting face that you don't get it.
"that doesn't make any sense."
she shakes her head and laughs, "what does a bird say? 'wait, wait, wait!'." (please tell me you get it 😭)
— HAERIN
expect silence from this girl. she's just staring at you 😭 a wave of wows exit her mouth while she watches you work on a project. telling you how much your glasses looks good on you while you're busy and focused. she was honestly shocked when she found out that your source of popularity was from your glasses. she always believed that your pretty face was the cause of their attraction. since she sits far away from your during class, she seriously took this opportunity to stare at you the whole time.
— "haerin, you're staring again." you groan, you've been talking to her for a while now during lunch break.
"sorry, you're just so undeniably pretty." she admits with a sly smile.
"seriously?"
"seriously." she repeats, she raises her hand that you thought was gonna cup your cheek. but instead, she snatched your glasses and wore it.
"haerin." you sighed, she's been stealing your glasses whenever she can so she can use it for silly reasons.
"i love it. but i love you more." she says and pecks your cheek.
— HYEIN
like haerin, she likes to steal your glasses and take pictures with it just like hanni. one time she used it, she faked being dizzy so she can fall in your arms and pretend as a princess 😭 loves your popularity, she's popular herself. being the tall girl crush of the campus and dating the hot nerd. but feels jealous when her friends talk about you so much when it's her responsibility to brag about you. :( and absolutely loves to BRAG about you.
— "i love the glasses." said some girls passing by you.
hyein eyes them as they walk away, rolling her eyes in response.
"they don't know i only get to say that to you." hyein crosses her arms and pouts.
"forget about them, they don't have me but you do." you smile.
"i know. but still." hyein huffs and rolls her eyes at the girl's once again.
"there's nothing to worry about. you're much better than them." you reassure.
"i also and always love the glasses. by the way." she adds cutely.

CHERRIES AND ROSES
Tumblr media
you try and confess to ricky through a diary about your thoughts about love and your crush on ricky. (valentines special!!)
𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 , ricky x gn! reader
𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐫𝐞 , fluff
𝐰/𝐜 , 2.5k
𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 , bad writing, second lead syndrome.., one-sided love, i feel like this is more abt kazumi than ricky or reader BYE..
𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐜𝐤 𝐦𝐲 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 !
Tumblr media
it wasn't hard to fall for ricky, never. he's so elegant, majestic, talented, everything! you thought that it would be a bother to be friends with him since it would get harder to hide the fact that you were astronomically down bad for him.
you weren't the only one like this. not at all. of course there were other people who like him as much as you do, he has a whole fan club.. you weren't that delusional to even show the fact that you had a crush on him or to show that you have a chance with him, you're insanely far from that. you know that there are people worthy enough to be with him, it's not bad to admire from afar. for now.
sometimes when you try to sneak a glance at him, he's already looking at you. you stop staring , or admiring, after a millisecond. you can always feel that someone is watching your every move whenever ricky is nearby. maybe you're really delusional. you've told your close friends about this problem.
"look for a little longer to be sure!"
your friend rocks you back and forth after hearing your thoughts, she seems more excited than you're supposed to be.
"do i look like i have the guts to do that?"
your friend looks disappointed in your shyness. to be fair you we're actually considering it.. but really, you don't have the guts to do that even if you wanted to do it.
"well maybe? please do it?"
your friend looks at you with puppy eyes. you roll your eyes.
"fine, just not now."
"yayy!"
(try to guess who the friend is in the end!)
"do you really like [name]?"
gyuvin asks ricky. they're currently in an empty classroom with gunwook reviewing his notes for an upcoming test. it has always been their secret meetup spot since they all became a trio.
"gyuv, i really do like them. they're funny, kind, attractive, just everything. i'm sure about this."
ricky reassures gyuvin. even though ricky is popular around the school, gyuvin is just worried that ricky might get used for fame and money. gyuvin also knows well that ricky has been in situations like that. he knows what to do.
"yeah, ricky's fine-"
yujin barges in the door, cutting off gunwook. he just got out of class after a chemistry test. everyone in the room got silent and just stared at him. the classroom was secret indeed, but they had to let yujin know. he was practically begging for them to tell him and it won't hurt to let him join?
"how's the test?"
gunwook asks yujin, breaking the awkward silence. he proudly waves his papers to gunwook, showing a noticeable 18/20 in red.
"happy?"
"phew, that long night of reviewing you didn't go to waste."
gunwook sighs relieved after having to explain everything in detail to yujin for 6 hours just for that quiz. for. free. yujin sits down beside the boys and starts talking about drama from his class.
"did you know kanghee cheated on eunji?"
gasps emitted from the boys, completely leaving the conversation about ricky's crush behind.
when february started, you bought a cute cherry notebook and turned it into a diary to write how much you like ricky and give it to him once the day comes. everyday you fill at leaat 5 pages with whatever seems romantic and cute.
you knew ricky likes diaries, you thought it would be nice to put this in his collection as a valentines gift. of course you saved some pages for him incase he wants to put anything in the diary.
it took you 3 sore fingers, a load of stickers, you preparing to get rejected, also you hoping that this will work, and other stuff. you're lucky that you don't have a busy schedule when valentines is near because this is probably your only way to confess to ricky. you're pretty embarrassed to actually give someone you have a crush on your thoughts about them when they don't even know you. whatever, you had to get this off of your chest somehow.
perfect. your diary is finished. you're planning on putting this on his desk. well, hoping that nobody would just open up and read everything that's been going on in your mind. can't do that.. you can't just put it on his locker, you don't know the code. even if you did, it's probably full of love letters that he won't even notice the notebook. gosh, i'll just ask my friends.
Tumblr media
from what your friends said, they told you to put the diary in his bag while he's practicing. you asked your friends, kyungsoo and kazumi, to go with you. kazumi has a friend there that's also in the basketball team so you three were able to go to practice without any suspicions.
"do you think this will work?"
kyungsoo asks nervous. to be honest, you were extremely nervous as well. you've never done stuff like this before. kazumi just scoffs as if he was an expert even though he's new to this as well.
"trust me. when i'm around, we can never fail."
kyungsoo's face softens, she avoids trying to worry or ask a question like that when all she'll get is kazumi being a narcissist as usual. you're close to the court. you see gyuvin, ricky's best friend, on the way.
"[name]! you're here! did you invite your friends?"
gyuvin greeted you, he's also a part of the team. he's currently holding a soda can on his hand that's from the vending machine, is it their break right now?
"yeah! kazumi got invited by minho to watch them and kyungsoo just wanted to go with us since she had nothing to do! how's valentines for you?"
gyuvin scoffs and casually drinks the soda as if he was gets admirers all the time. gunwook walks up to him and barges in the conversation and cuts gyuvin off.
"it's going well for me, as expecte-" "he's lying."
gyuvin tries to silence gunwook and convince you that he's just as famous as his best friend is. they start bickering and forget that they were talking to you in the first place.
"let's just go, we can't waste time."
kazumi whispers to you and kyungsoo as a signal to escape the whole thing. you finally entered the basketball court. you check the seats where ricky's bag usually is. some places are with admirers. too suspicious but you can fit in somehow.
"let's go there."
kyungsoo pointed at an empty spot that's not noticeable and you three can easily watch your surroundings. it's the spot that kristine recommended. as soon as you three were about to go up to the bleachers, ricky walks up to you.
"[name]? out of all the days you decided to see us practice, it's before valentines?"
"we're supposed to be out there gossiping about the confession wall but [name] insisted on going here. i also got invited by minho so i have no choice. kyungsoo just has nothing to do so she followed us."
kazumi offers an explanation, a fake one to be specific, he's a really good actor you have to admit. ricky looks at the cherry notebook you held in your hand, it reads "for you ᰔ." he starts to become curious about the notebook.
'who will you give that to? is it someone from the basketball team?' ricky was about to ask but just sucked it in. it's not his business anyway, you might get uncomfortable.
"alright. see you!"
ricky goes back to his seat and relaxes after a tiring practice. he's still thinking about that notebook, 'did you come here to confess to someone? is it him? gosh, don't get your hopes up quanrui. it's just some.. silly notebook.' he looks back to the three of you, mainly you. he just brushes it off and told himself to focus on practice.
you're finally free from the.. conversations. you don't hate talking to ricky or gyuvin, it's just weird considering the whole reason you went to watch basketball practice is.. you know it. just when you guys were about to go to the seat kristine recommended before it gets taken by.. another admirer, minho stops you from doing so.
"sorry, i just need kazumi for a minute."
kazumi signals for you and kyungsoo to just go to the seats and he will follow later. you nod and leave him and minho be. minho grabs kazumi's hand and gently drags him to a private spot.
"how's the plan going?"
minho asks quietly.
"we haven't even started yet, people like you just keep on disturbing us."
kazumi scoffs, what an introvert (loner)..
"sorry, just let me know if anything happens okay? you can go now."
"also i saw ricky looking at the notebook. just so you know."
kazumi nods and quickly goes to the two.
"i'm back."
kazumi sits down on the spot that they reserved for him. he checks his phone to see any updates from kristine.
Tumblr media
time passes by as you watch your surroundings to find the perfect moment to sneak up and hide the diary in ricky's bag. eunha distracting yoonmi, the basketball team focused on practice, others just hanging around the bleachers to find a not really crowded place to review or just have time to theirselves. this is perfect.
"i think i should go do it."
as soon as you stood up and try to walk away, kazumi grabs your hand and drags you back. he grabs your other hand. he's now holding both of your hands.. or wrists?
"don't do something stupid or mess up. i'm counting on you."
"err.. ok?"
he lets you go, kyungsoo just gives you two thumbs up and a pearly smile. you quickly get down and start your 'sneaky' mission. you try your best not to get attention. you sneak to the side of the bleachers, near ricky's bag. you stop for a second.. kazumi looks at you confused, why did you stop?
how exactly do you put it inside his bag without getting noticed? no wonder kazumi warned you before you went here.. you slowly walk closer to the bag, lift it a little, slowly put the notebook under, adjust the bag so that the only way you'll see the notebook is when you lift it up.
you look back at the two, kazumi stares at you giving you a 'seriously?' look while kyungsoo just gives you an ok sign. whatever. what happens happens. it's good enough.
you walk back to kazumi and kyungsoo. you remain standing in front of them, waiting for the signal to leave the place since you honestly can't stay here anymore.
"let's just go, it's boring here. i'll tell minho first."
you finally got out of that place. you're currently going to the school playground to meet with the others. when you three arrived you see haruki up the place with the slide because the signal is great there, rin and jiwon in the seesaw, kristine in the swings.
"you're back!!"
haruki rushes to get out and hug you, jiwon rapidly gets up and hugs kyungsoo, rinjusy gets out the seesaw and calmly walk up to her brother.
"kazu we.. need to talk."
rin drags kazumi to a private place in the playground where no one would hear their conversation.
"are you okay with this thing? after all you liked [name].. you sure you can handle everything?"
rin questions kazumi worried. kazumi just smiles and tries to reassure his younger sister.
"yeah, i don't see [name] that way anymore. i've already got my eyes on someone else.."
"you sure?"
kazumi nods, not wanting to be a bother to his sister.
"okay. i'll let you be. let's go back to the others and tell them we'll go home. or maybe we can hang out? we haven't went out that much recently.."
"yeah, let's go to that café with the cute bunnies. my treat."
practice is finally over. no admirers around, fresh air. he was about to get his bag to get changed. when he lifted it, he saw a notebook. a cherry notebook. with that same note. was that for.. him? no way.. he opens the notebook to read what's in it.
a diary about my.. love life? what i think about love?
to: ricky
from love: [name] ᰔ
he closes the notebook. planning to read it when he gets home.
Tumblr media
today is finally valentines. you're kind of nervous and scared that you'll get rejected. but you don't really expect ricky to like you back anyway, there's other people better than you. don't get your hopes up.
you entered the classroom, seeing a lot of chocolates, flowers, and whatever gifts people give on valentines. ricky's desk catches your attention. it's full of love letters, diy gifts, crochet roses, candies, and other stuff. near his desk was a cherry notebook.. a cherry notebook? in his hand.
you swiftly look away and rush to your seat. still having the feeling that someone.. ricky is staring at you. perhaps you should try what your friend, rin, told you. to look at him.. longer than usual. you look over to ricky still reading the diary, he's currently somewhere around the middle. he stops reading and looks at you, he then smiles. not his usual smirk like you see him do with others. a genuine smile.
he signals you to look under your desk. you quickly do it without any hesitation, curious about what kind of stuff he put there. you see roses and a piece of paper. you get them and put them on your desk to see it clearly. the bouquet is full of paper roses and crochet roses surrounding the real rose in the middle. you see the same note that you put on the front of the diary, "for you ᰔ."
you open the paper that comes with it. it's a page from the diary, you can tell because of the cherries scattered around it. a piece of ripped paper on the empty space. it's the first page of the diary, except he put correction tape over the original names and reversed it. the actual paper is a page titled "what i think about love ─ flowers." the change of handwriting is seen at the bottom, it's ricky's.
Tumblr media
after reading the whole thing, you look back at ricky, who's admiring you in pure adoration. you smile back at him and keep the roses and the paper before your strict teacher scolds you. you nod, his smile grows bigger. but your interaction gets interrupted by that exact strict teacher.
"that's how it all started."
ricky ended the story. your friends (not the anti-romantics and the broskis they know it all..) were curious about ricky's valentines and anniversary gift.
"happy valentines and.. anniversary."
ricky gives the diary to you. the diary is now full with your side and ricky's side. it's finally done. when you opened the book, the first page was the page that led him to give you multiple roses on that exact day. you smile at the precious memory. the one that started it all. you never had to worry about anything after all.

Stray Kids as High School Romance AUs
Tumblr media
Pairing: OT8 x fem!reader Genre: headcanon, fluff, angst if you squint Warnings: mentions of bullying but nothing super serious! Word Count: 5.4k
Tumblr media
Lee Know
The mysterious one, a classic tsundere
You know that one kid who’s been in your class since you were a little kid but you still don’t know anything about them? Minho right there.
He sits in the back of class and says nothing, even though some of his friends (aka the rest of the boys) are so loud at lunch
He would just quietly eat his sandwich before he catches you watching him and stares right back at you, making you awkwardly look away 
You’re so intrigued that you keep observing him, noticing little things like the cat stickers his phone is covered in, or the fact that he’s the secret mastermind behind the pudding trading business that your principal banned from school
Your first interaction with Minho is when you stumble upon him feeding a couple stray cats in the abandoned playground in your community
He’s super embarrassed to be caught being all soft and cute, especially given his cold front at school, but eventually warms up to you when you offer the cats some bread from your pocket
Meeting at the playground to pet the cats or just sit on the swings in a comfortable silence becomes your thing with Minho. You get to know each other better, and turns out, he’s actually really unhinged and chaotic and hilarious. The mysterious and borderline emo thing he worked is just a facade. 
But things don’t change at school, because you feel like you don’t have an excuse to talk to him there.
Until one random day, he just walks into class and wordlessly sets his bag next to your chair
“Why are you sitting next to me?”
“I should be able to sit next to my girl, right?”
You’re confused and exhilarated and kind of skeptical until Minho explains that for some time now, he’s seen you as his girlfriend. Who else would he sacrifice his dance lessons for? Feeding the cats together was basically a date, right? Do you not feel the same about him?! Wait, what?!!?
He’s all shy now and unsure and panicking internally, until you squeeze his hand under the desk and whisper to him that you like him too
You meet more often from there on, and he’s the kind of loving and attentive boyfriend that doesn’t say much, but will do anything for you. 
He takes an extra water bottle to school everyday, just in case if you forgot, and brings you delicious lunches that he made himself
Going to cat cafés and long drives around town are musts for you both
And when his friends tease him about you, he fiercely swats them away before retreating to you for cuddles like one of his beloved kittens
He’s soft only for you
So sweet ^ω^
2. Hyunjin
Everyone has a little bit of a crush on Hyunjin. The girls who fawn over his good looks, the creative writing kids who pine over poems they spin about him, and even the sweet old lady at the front desk.
And you’re not immune. 
You’ve basically had a huge crush on him since your first day of high school
You’ve done a couple of assignments together and how sweet and charming he is never fails to get you screaming into your pillow when you get home
He once bought you an iced americano at the coffee shop when you were partnered together on a project for school, and even though you didn’t like it, you drank the whole thing. 
The smile on his face was worth it
Now that you’re in senior year, you can’t help but wish he’d ask you to prom
But that would never happen, because someone as wanted as Hyunjin would never like you
Except he does. Ever since he first saw you in biology class, he’s been floored.
You don’t think he even remembers you outside of class, but the man is so down bad that he watches you doing anything and everything. 
Not in a creepy way ^▿^
You’ll be sitting outside in the grass with your friends during lunch, and Hyunjin will also be observing you, sitting against a tree and sketching you in his little notebook like the lover boy he is
You laughing. You sipping on your mango juice. You tucking back your hair.
Bro is just in love.
You randomly find a small sketch of yourself in your bag. It’s beautiful, but you’ve no idea who drew it, even after asking around
More of these drawings show up, everywhere. In your notebook. On your desk. In your glasses case. You wonder who this mystery artist is, and why they chose you to be their muse.
One rainy afternoon, you are trying to find your missing bracelet and find Hyunjin painting in the empty art room
His clumsy self almost falls out of his chair when you walk in on him 
He tries to hide his painting canvas from you until you get suspicious and look over his shoulder. 
It’s a simple portrait of you just smiling
You nearly cry at how beautiful and raw it is, but are also ecstatic because Hyunjin is your secret admirer/artist?!
He confesses his feelings at that point, seeing no point in hiding them any longer, and also unveils the bottom half of the portrait that you hadn’t noticed
PROM? is written in big, bold letters because we all know Hyunjin is extra
He then pulls out a rose, which is a little crumpled from being in his pocket. He pouts about it until you kiss him on the cheek and thank him, accepting his promposal
Hyunjin, the beautiful, unattainable one, is actually the sensitive romantic, and he turns red when you kiss him
You guys are the hottest couple at senior prom, tearing up the dance floor before Hyunjin whisks you away in his car, driving you to a secluded gazebo where he has candles and snacks and everything set up, and you guys just lie there, exchanging hushed “I love you’s” for the first time and gazing out at the stars
3. Changbin
Changbin has been your older brother’s very best friend ever since they both met in their first year of high school
At the gym.
Both your brother and Changbin were kind of unpopular, so both of them were bullied often. And being on the skinnier side, it also made it easier for them to get beat up
So your brother decided to get toned to protect himself, and he ended up registering at your local gym. And guess who he runs into there?
Changbin!
They both become gym buddies, and eventually, bond outside of their work-outs
And bonding includes meeting his baby sister, you.
Changbin had brought a box of biscuits for your mom and a bag of candy for you. 
He was one whole year older than you, but your eighth grade self was WHIPPED.
From then on, you follow Changbin around everywhere. 
And you know what? He never gets annoyed.
He always talks to you without getting embarrassed and even includes you in his conversations with friends, even when your brother clearly tries to kick you out.
But he always sees you as his best friend’s younger sister, like his own sister. You watch him go through many relationships, but your crush on him never wavers. 
And in due time, he becomes real buff. Which doesn’t help. At all.
So you keep your feelings for him as a secret, even though all you really want to do is confess to him and have him all to yourself, because you know he’d probably have to gently reject you.
By the time your junior year rolls around, you know you’re going to be watching Changbin and your big brother graduate together. You don’t have much time left before he leaves town to go to college, and you don’t know how often you’ll see him.
You overhear a lot of the senior girls gossiping about who Changbin might ask out to prom, and everyone whispers about some girl named Soyeon.
You know who they’re talking about; Soyeon is one of Changbin’s good friends, and she, your brother, and Changbin have hung out together multiple times.
You’re instantly filled with so. much. jealousy. 
Because of course he’d choose a hot, cool girl that’s actually his age, over you.
And you’ve even noticed how Changbin has been spending less and less time with you, always dashing off in the middle of conversations or hurrying away to do “homework.”
But you’d rather leave than be left.
From then on, you try to avoid Changbin as much as possible, because liking him was hurting you, more than you’d like to admit, because he didn’t even know. He was your first love.
A few days of ignoring Changbin’s texts and pretending not to see him in the halls, well, of course Changbin will notice.
He knocks on your front door and you open it. Immediately, you assume he’s here for your brother, and you look away.
“My brother’s at soccer practice right now. He can’t hang out.”
“No, actually, I wanted to talk to you.”
You’re surprised, and a little nervous, but still, you let him in, leading him to the kitchen. 
Wordlessly, Changbin heads over to the freezer, pulling out a pint of ice cream, and then a bowl from the dishwasher. He hands a bowl full of rocky road to you, and your heart immediately melts.
He knows you so well; when you’re feeling down, you love ice cream. And he knows your family too, where everything in the kitchen is :((( 
“Are you going to tell me why you’re avoiding me?”
You try to deny it, but one look from him and you’re a goner. You can’t ever lie to him.
“I heard you’re taking Soyeon to prom.”
Changbin looks confused. 
“We’re just friends though???”
“But I heard—”
Changbin rolls his eyes. 
“You believe gossip too much. I was going to ask you.”
Now you’re really unconvinced. 
“Sure. As your little sister.”
Uhhhh, nope.
Changbin groans, and for the first time, he lowkey looks kind of shy.
“I was going to surprise you, and I kept getting nervous, so that’s why I kept rushing off when we were hanging out.”
You feel the happy bubbles rising in your chest, but you’re still kind of unconvinced, until Changbin pulls out his phone and shows you his background.
It’s a selfie of you and him. 
So you both ended up going to prom together, and yes, your brother was watching you both very, very carefully. After, you guys did make it official and started dating over the summer.
When changbin left for college, you guys still stayed together. He’d come back home to visit you a lot, and you guys facetimed multiple times a week. 
Changbin would even help you on your college applications and edit your essays
And he’d also come back for your senior prom, and you guys would go together again.
He’s so cute help meee (✿◠‿◠)
4. Han
You’ve been friends with Jisung ever since you were in diapers.
Okay, that’s a bit of an exaggeration. You became friends in middle school, but Jisung insists that it feels like you were meant to be best friends with him since you both were born.
You met on a cloudy Monday morning during the first week of middle school, when Jisung plopped down in the chair next to you and introduced himself to you. 
Even with your efforts to ward off his friendship, forever wary of strangers, he soon became a part of your daily life, and you actually began to look forward to his antics in class everyday. He made everything so much more interesting and fun, and you love him for it.
Fast forward a few years later, you’re both in your junior year in high school. Both of you are still best friends.
And there’s also Minho, this hot senior you can't talk about because you claim he’s as mysterious as the moon.
Yeahhh, Jisung isn’t buying that crap. To him, Minho is a blank notebook. Boring. He just doesn’t get what you see in that guy!
He whines whenever you bring up Minho, and once, he was so excited that you invited him to Chipotle, but then he realizes it was only because you wanted to inconspicuously spy on Minho, who was also there for lunch.
Jisung ended up grumbling over his rice bowl and then storming out of the restaurant when you *accidentally* went to the soda fountain at the same time as Minho
Later that night, you confront him about why he ditched you at the Chipotle. Jisung gets annoyed and says he doesn’t like how you were using him to be your spy-buddy
And now you’re annoyed, because is that all he got from that?!!!!
Muttering to yourself, you walk home and ignore Jisung’s call to your retreating back
FOR GOD’S SAKE, YOU’RE TRYING TO MAKE YOUR BEST FRIEND JEALOUS.
Your crackhead best friend is the one you like, because puh-lease, Minho is too emo for you.
Jisung keeps texting you all night, but you ignore him, because you’re angry. How dense could your best friend be? Your “mysterious moon” reason for liking Minho was bullshit?! Can’t he take a hint?! Like-
Jisung interrupts your deliberating by throwing a small pebble onto your window
Although you’re still irritated, you guide Jisung up the small tree next to your window (in the process, he nearly falls off to his doom)
Once he’s inside your room, Jisung sits on the bed and you stand in front of him, arms folded like you’re his annoyed parent
“What do you want, Ji? It’s midnight” 
He thrusts out a bag of twizzlers towards you, and you just can’t resist. Candy is your weakness, and it’s what he always bribes you with when you get mad at him
“Iwasntmadbecauseyoumademecometochipotletospyonminho”
“Sorry?”
But Jisung keeps going without slowing down, like the menace he is.
“Iwasmadbecauseilikeyouandimjealousofminho.”
“Yo, what??!”
“I LIKE YOU, JEEZ!”
You rush forward and clamp your hand over Jisung’s mouth, shutting him up before your parents come and kill you. 
“Yeah, I got that, genius! I was just surprised!”
Both of you just stare at each other for a good minute, and then burst into loud laughter
Yeah, this ain’t friends to lovers. More like idiots to lovers.
And yes, your mom also comes in, fuming, and kicks Jisung out. You’re grounded.
But the next day, at school, you and Jisung make things official. You also take the chance to blackmail Jisung that if he ever refuses to buy you candy again whenever you ask, then it’s over.
Jisung laments that he made a mistake in asking you out, but one look from you and he shuts up.
Other than that, you guys become that disgustingly sweet and hilarious couple that’s always in sync.
You both have the dumbest inside jokes and cover each other’s eyes during horror movies
U_U  
5. Felix
The boy next-door… 
He moved in to the house next to yours a few years ago, with his whole family, and with your curiosity, you watched him and his sisters laugh together from behind your curtains
Later that night, Felix knocked on your door and offered you and your parents homemade brownies. Your mother immediately falls in love with the chocolate treats and invites this charming boy’s family over for dinner that night
You become best friends with Rachel and Olivia, Felix’s sisters, but you couldn’t help but have a crush on Felix
Some time later ,when you went over to hang out with the girls, they both had to leave in the middle for piano lessons, but before you could go home, Felix offered to teach you how to bake
That’s how you end up giggling in the kitchen together and teasing each other with flour fights
When Rachel and Olivia are busy, you play video games with Felix in his room— at least, he plays and tries to teach you, while you miserably fail each time
But it’s just so fun to see his eyes light up whenever he wins a match or something
Gamer bf vibes for real 
In school, you notice him in the hallways and he always has a bunch of girls swooning over him, but he always smiles at you and gives you a sweet hug whenever he sees you
Summers are filled with trips to the pool with the Lee siblings and biking around town, getting ice cream and enjoying the air conditioning in the public library.
You and Felix literally grow up together :(
Your bedroom window is directly across from Felix’s, and sometimes, you both wave to each other through glimpses
Once, since your homes aren’t spaced that far apart, Felix threw a delicate paper plane through your window and into your room. 
You were studying for your math test tomorrow, and so it has a cute note written inside wishing you good luck. Also there’s a candy taped to the paper because of his sweet tooth <33
The paper airplane notes become a tradition, and one night, Felix throws an airplane asking you to meet him at the little pond in your neighborhood
It’s literally almost midnight so you’re like ???
But you sneak out anyway, and meet him at the pond
It’s late autumn so you’re freezing in your pajamas, cursing yourself for not bringing a jacket. And the woods surrounding? Creepy as hell, especially in the dark
When you feel someone grab your arm, you scream but then they cover your mouth with their warm, tiny hand and you realize it’s Felix LMAO
He’s brought a container of warm brownies for you, hot cocoa, and a little blanket
You’re speechless. Because what is happening?!
He immediately notices you’re shivering and wraps you in his own jacket and the blanket, before sitting you down next to him, drawing you close in his arms
And snuggled together in front of the moonlit pond, he confesses that he’s liked you since the moment he set his eyes on you
Just kill me now.
Anyway, his sisters are a little mad that they have to share you with him when you guys reveal that you’re a couple, but for the most part, both of your families love you both together
And you guys even become that couple that’s always clinging to each other and being all lovey-dovey in the hallways
But PDA is never cringe with Felix :P 
EVER.
6. Seungmin
He’s definitely the smartest kid in class, the one who everyone goes to get homework help from
You completely envy him, because before he started attending your school, you used to be first in everything
Now?
He’s always first, and you follow closely behind as second. Every. Single. Time.
It infuriates you to the core when your teacher hands back test papers, and before he even checks his score, which is obviously better than yours, he shoots you a little smirk
You dislike him so much that you even tell him that, and you both bicker back and forth. Every time, however, he ends up reminding you that you’re just jealous and need to work harder to catch up with him, which is very true and angers you even more
But when you complain about him to your friends, they tease you and say you like him
Which you absolutely do NOT
Even though you’ve always noticed how his eyes seem to shimmer when he reads a book, or how his smile is brighter than the sun
Ever since your friends have made it their mission to torment you about Seungmin, you can’t help but gaze at him a little longer
He’s always on his own, either studying diligently or finishing homework for another class during study hall, when everyone else just goofed off
At lunch, he sits under a tree and eats calmly while engrossed with a book in his hand, slowly sipping his juice occasionally
One day, you see a couple of the older kids picking on him outside, and you overhear that it’s because he scored better than them in advanced exams
When one of them grabs Seungmin’s shirt and tries to drag him, you instantly see red and charge for the idiot, punching him to the side and grasping Seungmin’s hand
You’re Seungmin’s knight in shining armor!!
But then the other older kids start to close in on you both
Uh-oh.
You and Seungmin make a run for it, escaping narrowly by catching a departing bus. You don’t even know where you both are going, but you breathlessly laugh together about the ordeal
Later, Seungmin’s mom finds you both and drives you home. While you and Seungmin sit quietly in the back, his mom cheerily thanks you for being his friend, since Seungmin doesn’t have any. Also, she notes that it’s wonderful to finally meet you, because Seungmin can’t stop talking about how smart and cool you are at home
Seungmin is mortified because his mom has exposed him and refuses to look at you, but for the first time, you feel like you don’t hate him
Not even close
When you reach home, Seungmin’s mom makes him get out of the car and walk you to your door. Before your anxiety gets the best of you, you lean forward and kiss him on the cheek, shyly running inside before he can say anything. 
Little do you know that he can’t even think of words right now. He just stands there, frozen, not hearing his mom’s honking above the beat of his heart
Soon, when he musters up the courage to ask you out, you both become official
And you both become study buddies as well, so you finally end up beating Seungmin after learning his tips and tricks. 
P.S. years later, Seungmin jokes that if he never dated you, he still would’ve been first in class. But who knows? Because you guys are made for each other.
7. Jeongin
This story is less about you and more about Jeongin. He’s the main character, not you. 
Duh.
As one of the most popular people in school, Jeongin is used to getting everything he wants. Teachers and students alike adore him for his charisma, looks, and sweet personality
Even though he’s a junior, all the seniors know who he is and would die to hang out with him
One day, surrounded by his big group of friends, as usual, Jeongin is walking down the neighborhood streets to that diner he loves to eat at
And then he notices the most beautiful girl walking into the restaurant right next to his favorite diner, the very establishment that he swore to never eat at and betray his beloved diner
But he’s immediately awestruck and curious to know who you are, and so he walks in right after you, ignoring his friends confused questions as to why he’s literally going into to the rival restaurant of his usual place
As soon as he is inside, he looks for the table you’re sitting at,
He grabs the table right next to yours and rattles off his order to the waitress, still in a daze with his eyes fixated on you
He recognizes your two friends who you are sitting with. They’re both senior girls, which means you must be one too
Oh? ;)
The hot older student? Sign Jeongin up.
He boldly goes up to your booth and asks you out, straight-up, flashing you a cute smile and a daring wink
You and your friends just glance at each other, amused, before you politely let him down
Because you don’t even know him?? Tf??
But your rejection makes him even more infatuated with you, because although he’s an attention-whore, the one thing he loves more is a good challenge
He swaggers back to his table, but not before shooting you a grin that screams “this ain’t over”
And it isn’t over.
Because he spends time learning about what you like through the grapevine, and as one of the school’s most popular kids, he has good access to it.
You love pink carnations, banana ice cream, and surprises. 
And through that wonderful grapevine, he also finds out about what kind of person you are. Funny, kind, and incredibly smart, as one of the toppers in your grade. 
So cute.
At school some time later, after you have almost forgotten about him, he slides in next to you at your lunch table, opening his bag and eating as if everything is normal
You just watch him like??
But you go along with it because you don’t want to be rude. All of your friends love Jeongin (obviously) because he’s so funny and charming
But you just eat your food silently, wondering what this kid is up to
As soon as the school bell rings, you walk out of your classroom and towards your locker, but surprise, surprise, Jeongin is already waiting there. With a bigass bouquet of baby pink carnations.
“Can I be your boyfriend?” 
Jeongin beams at you confidently, but you can see a hint of nervousness behind it. 
And you find the whole cheesy getup very endearing. Still… he’s trouble.
You hide back your smile, shaking your head. 
“I don’t date junior boys.” You walk off, leaving Jeongin hanging once again.
Damn. What a woman.
It’s time for Jeongin to pull out the big guns, because no one has ever made him work for it like you. 
A few nights later, just as you’re about to sit down with your family for dinner, you hear a knock at the door. Your dad offers to get it, so you pay no mind.
But a minute later, your dad walks in with none other than Jeongin, a box of ice cream in his hands
“Your nice friend came over to drop off some dessert. So I invited him to stay for dinner.”
Stunned, you just watch Jeongin drag a chair next to your seat and dig into his food enthusiastically.
As the rest of the evening progresses, your family literally falls in love with Jeongin; he laughs at your father’s horrible dad jokes, listens to all of your mom’s embarrassing childhood stories about you, and engrosses himself in discussion about Fortnite with your little brother
After dessert, you announce that you’ll walk Jeongin out, grabbing him by his arm and pulling him outside onto your porch before he can protest
Once the front door is shut, you glare at Jeongin
“What are you doing here?”
“Dropping off dessert!”
“But why?”
“Because I like you, okay?!”
Jeongin squares his shoulders, looking you in the eye. “Go out with me. You won’t regret dating a junior, I promise.”
What a cliché. 
You roll your eyes, because you’re tired and your feet are cold. Also, you’re not amazing at expressing your emotions. Your heart feels like a damn water slide and you really need a sec.
“Jeongin, go home.”
“You like me too, right? I know how you look at me.”
It’s pretty obvious, you know it too. Ever since his whole stunt with the flowers, you’ve been watching him from afar, your own crush growing on him. But you can’t be with a junior, can you?
“Doesn’t matter. I have homework to do, let’s talk tomorrow.”
“You also like surprises, yes?”
Jeongin steps closer to you, nearly cornering you against the porch pillar. You shove him away.
“Dude, are you trying to kiss me?!”
Jeongin stumbles back. “No!”
He whips out a small velvet box behind his back and opens it, revealing a gorgeous bracelet. “It’s not as pretty as you, but I thought it would look good on you.”
He gently takes your wrist and slips it on, earnestly gazing down at you. “But I would really like to kiss you, if you don’t have too much homework.”
“Screw chemistry.”
You loop your arms around Jeongin’s neck and pull him down, kissing him. 
“Guess I’m the one who surprised you in the end.”
8. Bang Chan
He would 100% be one of those nice popular kids.
He’d have like a million friends and a bunch of wannabes would follow him around too, but he’s so sweet to everyone
Chan is a jock, because he’s athletic and the captain of the soccer team, but he’s also one of those really smart kids too. He gets amazing grades and even plays the guitar, because he’s a sensitive music guy omgggg
Anyway
You have to agree he’s cute, but you’ve always been a little wary of the popular kids. A lot of the people he’s friends with are rude af, but he chills with everyone because no one could ever say anything to him, that’s how well-liked he is.
You have history class together, and you get paired up together. 
He’s super friendly, obviously, and asks if you can meet up with him at the library after school. What else can you say but yes?
So you get to the library, but Chan is nowhere to be seen. 
Fifteen minutes late, he shows up, and you’re really annoyed at this point, but….
He brought you both boba!
Suspiciously, you accept it (it’s delicious) and you’re surprised to find out that Chan actually really knows his stuff
You both finish a good chunk of your work, and a lot of your progress is thanks to Chan’s immaculate planning and organization
You’ve never seen a guy have a binder with color-coded separators and aesthetic notes and stuff, but Chan keeps surprising you
You both meet up two more times to finish the project, and each time, Chan brings you a different flavor of boba. 
And eventually, you warm up to him, and it’s hard not to fall for his endearing, caring personality. He even offered you his hoodie when you got cold because of the library air conditioning!
When you finish your project, you’re sad that it means that you have to stop hanging with Chan, but he actually keeps saying hi to you at school and striking up conversation, even though you get a little shy. 
He moved seats to sit next to you in class too, and comes to the library more often to just sit at your table and do homework in silence with you
One day, you overhear a few of Chan’s friends complaining about him spending more time with some unpopular girl. They start picking on the girl, when you realize the girl they’re making fun is you. 
Immediately, you run off to the bathroom to cry in the stalls’ privacy, because you should have known that being friends with someone like Chan was a bad idea
Although he might not have been a bad person, some of his friends certainly were. That made him a bad guy by association.
A few minutes later, as you’re wiping your tears and stepping out of the bathroom when you crash into Chan, who’s waiting right outside
You try to step around him and leave, but he just hugs you from the back and apologizes by whispering into your ear
His voice is so soothing :(( 
“I’ll make them apologize, and I’m not going to hang out with them anymore, and anyone else who says anything to you.”
And honestly, you’re kind of shocked that he is willing to give up his friends for you
But like he can read your mind, Chan answers for you:
“They don’t matter to me as much as you do.”
He indirectly confesses that he likes you, but you guys actually don’t go into a relationship right away.
You spend a lot more time getting to know each other, personally and on a deeper level.
You learn about his passion for music, and he learns about your own interests. You share your hopes and dreams and fears, until you finally realize how much you both truly mean to each other
After all, Chan is the type of person who would take his time before committing himself to someone
And although when you finally get together, it seems like Chan is always protecting you, it’s actually the other way around:
You teach Chan that it’s okay to be vulnerable, and that you’ll always love him no matter what. 
More than anything, you’re proud of Chan and the person he is. Always.

“I still can’t believe you’re leaving me. I mean, who am I going to hang out with? Who will I eat lunch with? What will I do with my life?”
“Robin, you’re being extremely dramatic.”
“I am not,” she said, rolling over from laying on her back to laying on her stomach. She was on your bed, pensively holding a stuffed dog and stroking its ear. 
“Let’s look at the facts here,” you began logically.
“Fact one: you’re leaving me,” Robin grumbled.
“For a college twenty minutes away,” you pointed out.
“But you won’t be here everyday,” Robin whined. “Seriously, Y/N, I’m going to be a senior this year, and you won’t be here for it.”
“Robin,” you said, sitting on your bed next to her, “I really promise you that I’ll be around, honest. I’ll be there for all your big senior events, and I’ll be home every weekend. Maybe I’ll even come to have lunch with you some days,” you said, bumping her shoulder.
“Sure, likely story,” Robin said bitterly. “Just wait, you’ll get a ton of friends at college and you’ll forget all about me.”
“Impossible!” you said. “You’re my best friend, Robin.”
“I’m your only friend, Y/N.”
“Ouch,” you said sassily. 
“Maybe you need a boyfriend to come back to,” Robin said thoughtfully, smirking. “If you get one here, you can’t have one at college, and then you’ll definitely come back.”
“Okay, A, I already have a reason to come back,” you said, poking her, “and B, there aren’t any good guys in Hawkins.”
“I think your letters might say differently,” Robin said, raising her eyebrows.
“I told you to never bring those letters up, Robin,” you said sternly.
“Where are they anyway?” Robin wondered, getting up and going into your closet.
“Robin, no!” you said as she reached to the top shelf. She grabbed a small box covered in stickers. 
“So predictable,” she smirked, shaking her head and opening the box. “Let’s see, Andrew Jacobs, Kevin S., blah, blah, blah… woah.”
“What?” you asked.
“Why do you have a letter for Steve Harrington?” she said, holding the letter tightly in her hands.
“Robin, give it back,” you said firmly, but she moved away too quickly for you. “Robin, I’m not joking, I need it back!”
“Oh, whatever,” she said, shoving the box back to you. “Can I read it?” she asked simply.
“What? Why? No!” you replied, confused.
“Well, I know him, and I mean, I don’t know, I just sort of wanted to know what you think of him.”
“I can’t imagine why my opinion of Steve Harrington matters to you,” you said.
“Okay, okay,” she said, throwing her hands up in defense. “But with the love of your life in mind, I have to go,” she said, grabbing her bag.
“What?” you asked, chuckling.
“That’s right, Y/N, this is what I’ve come to in preparation for your departure,” Robin said dramatically, slinging her bag over her shoulder. “I have to go to work at my terrible job scooping ice cream with Steve Harrington.”
“Ah, that’s right, little Miss Scoops Ahoy,” you said, holding back a laugh.
“You just love to see me suffer, don’t you?” Robin asked, eyes narrowed.
“I can’t wait to see you in your uniform, Bucky Buck,” you teased.
“Call me Bucky Buck one more time, and I’ll tell Steve about the letter,” she threatened.
“Robin!” you yelled in panic. 
-💌-
Robin tapped her fingers on the counter and looked at her watch. She sighed loudly and groaned.
“Steve Harrington, late again,” she scoffed, then reached into her pocket and took out your love letter to Steve. She looked around her, then opened the letter quietly, hunching herself over to read it. She could feel bad for taking it, but hey, you were leaving her for college. You owed her this.
As she read, she held a hand to her mouth, stifling a giggle, but then her hand drew back down, looking at it seriously. She felt a lump in her throat and a new feeling of sympathy rush into her beating heart. 
“What are you doing?”
Robin jumped up, gasping as she turned to see Steve, who looked at her suspiciously.
“Nothing,” she said quickly, trying to hide the letter, but Steve’s eyes followed her hand as she shoved it in her pocket.
“What is that?” he asked.
“Oh, nothing, just the orders we need to make this week,” Robin said quickly, trying to sound casual.
“Oh, great, I was waiting on that! I can call it in,” he said, holding his hand out to Robin.
“NO! I mean, I can handle it,” Robin said, looking frightened.
“It’s my job, Robin, just hand it to me,” Steve said, stepping closer to her. 
“I-have to go to the bathroom,” Robin said, rushing to the back. Steve looked bewildered, shaking his head. He looked down at the ground and picked up an envelope.
“To Steve Harrington, the first love of my life,” Steve read to himself, then looked up, feeling even more confused than before.
“Is Robin in love with me?”

I apologize, I forgot to put a trigger warning before. I do mention suicide.
As a chronic pain patient/advocate who is newish but oldish to the game, I have learned that the argument of addiction is the reason people in pain are not getting proper pain relief. And if you are lucky to get pain relievers, it comes with a big, red scarlet sticker saying the medication “can cause dependency” on the bottle... well, think about it: if you have daily pain, you will need daily relief if you hope to live a normal life.
But there is a major difference between addiction & dependency:
Addiction is an insatiable desire for the medications immediate “euphoric” effects, aka “chasing the dragon” which typically lasts all day. The patient may end up over using/taking much more or all of the prescribed amount within a shorter time period.
Dependency is when the person needs the medication to sustain a decent quality of life. The patient is taking their prescribed medications as directed so that their body can function properly.
An example of dependency is a diabetic patient needing insulin so that they can live.
The problem is that addiction is in everyone, and everyone has some form of addiction that is waiting to be ignited. It is a basic human condition to “want more” and it can be a result of MANY things including a traumatic experience, or even the dreaded “peer pressure” during a high-school party. It can happen with gambling, sex, exercising, even food… It is a spectrum. And it is up to the person to determine their path.
We have reached a new stage of our awful human evolution. Being thin is a societal influence, something that people will kill them-selves for, and we now have everyday people using the diabetic prescription drug “ozempic” as a way to lose weight.
Diabetic patients who are dependent on this type of drug are unable to fill their prescriptions because of the high numbers of non-diabetic people using this drug for their personal gain- pun noted.
To be blunt or a bit dramatic, we could say they are abusing or misusing a diabetics drug.
A person in pain asking for medical attention is shamed, mocked, reported, harassed, and some extraordinary nurses have even taken it far enough to record their rejected “drug seekers” walking out from the hospitals as they’re laughing in the background.
We have been waiting for justice for what seems forever, and some pain warriors have even decided death is better than endless pain… there are so many. It’s not just pain patients either, an ER doctor Dr. Steve Ortiz committed suicide, because he was unable to help his patients. He was continually harassed by the ones who made these fucking rules. He wanted to bring light to the corruption with his death, leaving behind his wife and children in hopes for justice.
And now pain patients everywhere get to watch our society do exactly what they claim to hate us for: abusing someone else’s medication…
Self reflection is free, and everyone should use it daily.

Emergency contact
Steve Harrington x reader :)
Prompt: loosely based off a modern family scene (I LOVE modern family). Where Haley runs off from her date with Arvin after meeting his parents, he then says something that upsets her and she runs off. She ended up in the hospital due to fainting (bc of the NERP stickers lol) and the nurse calls her emergency contact, which is her ex-boyfriends—my story isn’t exactly the same. But I hope you enjoy.
Warning: fainting, I don’t write so this may be terrible.
no use of y/n. could be gender neutral bc I didn’t use he/she besides the nurse and Steve.
Tumblr media
You don’t know what happened, but somehow you ended up in the hospital. The last thing you could remember was running around the neighborhood, and a man with a British accent asking if you’re okay.
Once you looked around to see if there was any evidence of what happened earlier, the nurse came in. “Good, you’re awake,” she says. You still looked at her confused, brows furrowed, she senses your confusion and says, “you passed out. A man on the street found you fainting and called for help. Have you been drinking water? It’s awfully hot out, and it seems you’re dehydrated.”
You thought back to earlier this week, maybe you could’ve been better at drinking water but other things have been on your mind. “I probably haven’t been drinking much water, no,” you respond. The nurse nods, but further asks, “how about your stress level? Has there been anything causing you deep amounts of stress?”
Well geeze, you think. How about things you could never imagine and almost putting your life in danger everyday along with your friends. Oh, and, your recent break up with Steve. You were together for a year, but were quite close before because of Dustin.
You were his babysitter because his mom didn’t trust him alone at home even if he could take care of himself, so you—his neighbor, took care of him. Dustin absolutely adored you, you always listened to his problems and was there for him. Not to mention, you were kind to everyone including his weird group of friends. He didn’t mean for you to get caught up in the madness of demodogs, Russians, and Vecna. But that’s just who you were, you wanted to help. With Dustin being stuck in the middle of you and Steve’s lovesick confessions about each other to the little boy, he grew tired and “parent trapped” the two of you. Both of you were grateful for Dustin because it gave you both the courage to confess to each other.
You forgot about the nurse and her question, as she’s staring at you with a worried look, waiting for an answer. You sigh, “I guess I have been under a huge amounts of stress.” She jots down some notes as you respond. “What you need to do now is rest, and drink plenty of water. You lost a lot of fluid, and you running and your added stress didn’t help. We suggest you stay here until the end of the day. Just so you can fully rest and drink as much water as you can. How does that sound?”
You silently nod without saying a word, and she walks out with a tight-lipped smile. You’re glad she said that you could stay for now because you’re not ready to leave and face reality. At least you could relax a little. You sink into your bed (and drink some water) and you remembered why you were running. You weren’t even a runner—you hate running and always wondered why people did it for fun.
You were running from your thoughts, you needed to get fresh air because all you could think about was Steve. The break up was really hard for you, and it’s only been 2 months. Though, it wasn’t a mutual break up. It wasn’t him who wanted to break up. It was you. You broke up with him.
You didn’t break up with him because you stopped loving him. Oh, no, you are hopelessly in love with him. Your insecurities got the best of you.
You and Steve’s relationship grew long after him and Nancy dated. You were a bit worried at first because you weren’t sure you’d live up to Nancy’s standards. But that’s exactly what Steve didn’t want, he needed someone who loved him. Someone who knew his worth and that was you. You both cared for each other so much. The kids admired you two, and Robin can feel the love you both had for each other. Yet she was disgusted at the same time.
Something happened when the whole vecna fiasco began. You could feel Steve slipping away and going towards Nancy. You thought you were going crazy because she’s with Jonathon, she wouldn’t do that to him. But the longer you all were together, the more you could see them falling for each other again.
It broke your heart.
You felt that you were right before, you’ll never be Nancy. So when everything was over, you broke up with him. You didn’t tell him the reason, which left him in confusion and sadness. Steve missed you so much, and not talking to you for 2 months was killing him. He needed to know the reason and win you back.
It seemed you weren’t lost in thought for too long, as the nurse comes back into your room. “We contacted your parents to come get you after you’re all rested up, but it seems they’re out of town. So-,” you interrupt, “yeah they went on a trip for their anniversary. It’s just me right now, I’ll take the bus after this.” You say without hesitation. You don’t want your friends to worry about you, especially Robin. Knowing her she will, and you can’t have her finding out you ended up in the hospital because you weren’t taking care of yourself.
“Well, we really suggest you have a trusted transportation back home. Plus, you’ll be on that bus ride forever. We looked at your emergency contact list and your boyfriend picked up. He should be coming soon.” You looked at her with wide eyes, you tried to tell her that Steve isn’t your boyfriend anymore and shouldn’t be coming here. But it was too late because as she said that, he was running in. He looked out of breath. You quickly noticed he was still in his Family Video uniform, so you knew he was in quite a rush to get here.
“Oh, no, no, no, please come back. He’s not-“ you called for the nurse, but gave up in defeat as she left the room.
“I’m so sorry, I came as fast as I could. Are you okay? What happened? She said you were dehydrated and running? Since when did you run? And-“ his questions kept spewing and it was overwhelming you. You took a deep breath. “Stop! Steve, it’s okay. I’m fine. You shouldn’t even be here right now. I didn’t know you were in my emergency contact list.”
“You’re not fine. You fainted! I was worried sick when they called me. I want to be here, I don’t care that you don’t want me to but I’m staying and bringing you home.” Why did he have to care so much? You weren’t together anymore. You thought he wouldn’t care anymore, but a small part of you might be glad he’s here.
You sigh and figured to just let him. You wanted to be stubborn but knew a bus ride home was a terrible idea. He took your sigh as a “fine.” Steve grabbed a chair and sat next to your bed. “So, you want to tell me why you were running? Again, running doesn’t sound like you.” You rolled your eyes at him, you hate that he still knows you so well. “I just wanted to try something new,” you tried to say confidently.
“Liar,” Steve immediately responds. You scoff. “You know what? Why don’t you go back to stacking movies. I was enjoying my quiet time here.”
“You know I can’t do that. I also don’t want to. Now tell me, what happened?” He said with so much love and worry. He was hoping that maybe he could find out why you called things off. You felt tears building up in your eyes. You quickly looked away as you didn’t want to talk about this with him. You were still so fragile. And you wondered why he was here when you were sure he went back to Nancy.
“…I needed some air. I know that it was me who broke off things with you but I’ve been having a hard time lately. I guess I was dehydrated, and my running didn’t help.” You respond timidly without making eye contact.
“Why did you break things off?” Steve asked with hope. He needed an answer. You throw your head back to your pillow, “Steve, I don’t want to get into this right now. I’m not in the headspace-“
“Please. I need to know why. I’ve been so confused these last two months. It felt like it came out of nowhere.”
“Came out of nowhere? You were falling for Nancy right before my eyes. I couldn’t stand it!” You blurted out. You realized what you said, and silently beat yourself up because you didn’t want to tell him it was because of Nancy.
“Nancy?” He said almost with a laugh, “you broke up with me because of Nancy?”
“Look, I saw how you guys were. It was like your love was rekindling for each other,” you said matter of fact. Steve rapidly shook his head. “There was no rekindling going on between us.”
“Well that’s what I saw. It hurt me a lot. I knew that I wasn’t right for you from the start, especially after your relationship with her,” he could almost feel your heart breaking. Steve grabbed your hand gently, making sure it was okay with you. “Sunshine, that may be what you saw, but it wasn’t. I was concerned for everyone’s safety at that time. Yes, Nancy and I had some history, but we both moved on. I just wanted to make sure she was safe too. I love you too much to ever leave you.”
Sunshine. He knew that was your weakness. He loved calling you that and you loved hearing it.
But you didn’t want that to win you over. “Well, we’re not together anymore. So, it doesn’t matter.” You cross your arms and look away. This time, Steve actually laughs, which makes you look back at him like you wanted to smack him for not being serious. “There it is,” he says. “What are you talking about?”
“You were like this when we first started dating. You were afraid that I still loved Nancy. But I tried to tell you that she was in the past. You don’t know how amazing you are and it hurts. Nancy and I broke up because she didn’t know my worth, but you do. I hate that you can’t see how I see you. You’re the most caring, loving, beautiful person. I love you more than my heart can handle.”
You feel like your broken heart has been healed. You felt ridiculous for ever jumping to conclusions without talking to Steve first. A tear finally rolls down your cheek, but you try to hide it. “I love you more than my heart can handle, too,” he wipes the tear off you with his thumb while holding your face. “I said that line first, you can’t steel it,” he jokes, which makes you laugh. He missed your laugh.
“I’m so sorry for breaking things off. I shouldn’t have done that. I missed you a lot. I’ve been a mess, as you can tell,” you gesture to the hospital room. “I don’t care anymore. I’m glad I’m on your emergency contacts. I get to take care of my sunshine again.”
You couldn’t take it anymore. You missed his lips on yours. You leaned into each other, and he gently held your face and kissed you like it’s been years without you. After a minute, he pulled away, “I don’t want to take your breath away even more. So that’s enough for now,” Steve said with a smirk. You rolled your eyes and slapped his arm.
After a few “I love you’s,” kisses, and him forcing you to drink more water— instead of taking you home, he took you back to his house to hold you close again.
a/n: I wrote this in a few hours, so I hope it makes sense. I don’t write but am always reading <<<<<3 amazing stories about Steve. I wanted to give it a shot. I’m full sending this bc I liked the idea and don’t think I’ve seen a lot of this prompt.

A Beginner's Guide to Feminist Action: Independent, Anonymous, and Inexpensive
Stickers
There are wonderful feminist artists who sell stickers, however, the cost of small scale labor and shipping doesn't make it financially favorable for all of us.
Making your own can be as simple as using a pen, paper, and any type of tape. Glue can be a replacement. If you have extra tape, and it is clear, like scotch tape, you can "laminate" your paper to protect it. Hairspray works as well. Both tools can be found at places like Dollar tree if you don't already have one. Benefits of this is that the size and mottos are completely in your control and can be diversified.
Tumblr media
Paper name tag stickers also work and are easy to mass produce with no cutting or adhesive necessary. You can write on them directly and they come on plastic so they're ready to peel like normal stickers. They come in packs of 25 or 50+ and can be found at places like target or walmart.
Tumblr media
If you'd like your sticker to be permanent or are worried about others undoing your work, go back to Dollar Tree and get the small tubes of super glue. Place your laminated paper on a pole, use two small bits of tape to hold it in place, and squeeze out 1/2 to 1 small tube of the glue starting at the top. Once its stuck, take off the two bits of placement tape and apply glue to the full sides as well. This will make it weatherproof and unpeelable.
The goal of public feminist expression is exposure. Accordingly, postings in high traffic areas are more favorable than remote ones. This doesn't have to mean city hall. Parking lots, malls, schools, parks, and intersections are all favorable places. Stickers work well on poles. Placing them above crosswalk buttons ensures viewers.
One advantage of stickers is anonymity. You can quickly apply one and move on without drawing attention to yourself.
Writing
We're all familiar with the cascade of male genitals drawn everywhere. If there is one thing to learn from that, it is that graffiti can be as simple as using a sharpie in a bathroom stall. Sharpies work well on most surfaces. If you feel comfortable stopping somewhere to take the time and write or draw, they make a very cost friendly and effective tool. Thicker permanent markers are better for higher visibility, especially if the message isn't near eye level. Your messages can again be laminated with a layer of super glue.
You can also write with spray paint but assuming you are not experienced with this, it can be an unnecessary risk especially as it is audible and requires a larger surface area.
Posters
Posterboards do not need to be bought. If you've ever worked in a warehouse or at a store, you know just how many hundreds of flat solid pieces of cardboard are chucked everyday. You can approach a store employee to ask, or take a look around in their recycling bin outside. Some stores with long hours begin restocking before closing. At this time, you can simply ask whoever is right there unpacking and you will be allowed access to those trays and boxes. You can use old moving boxes and so on.
A quick and cheap way to complete your posters is to again go to dollar tree. In the school section they have packs of large paper letters with each containing the alphabet thrice. These work as reuseable and readily available stencils. As stencils, once you position them, you can use a can of spray paint, trace them, or even spray it with dyed water to leave your message. Little bits of tape or pebbles on the letters may be necessary if you're using spray paint to ensure they stay in place under the air force. You also can simply tape them on to be permanent however most phrases do not use letters evenly and so more packs (and thus more money) will be needed. Spray paint is available at walmart for $6 a can. I recommend black.
A great place to put posters is on your nearest overpass (or bridge that crosses your busy roadways). Make sure they are on the inside of the fence to avoid the risk of them falling and creating hazards for drivers. You can have two sets of signs for each overpass to cover both sides of traffic.
Tumblr media
This is an example (of which the credit is not owed to me) from a recent roadtrip. The three signs read, "Women", "Liberty", and "Justice" on the Iranian flag. The second set of signs is on the other side of the bridge and its corresponding fence to be visible to the cars on the left side of traffic.
Adherring your posters to the fence well is important due to the winds from cars underneath and on the bridge. Make 4 (or more) holes in your board near but a sturdy distance away from the corners and sides. Rope, twine, wire, and duct tape are possible options to tie it to a chainlink fence. Maybe your sock has a hole in it. use that to tie your poster to a fence. Cut it into strips or use it whole. Point being you do not need to spend money. You can be resourceful as far as your imagination goes.
General
While doing any of these, it is a good idea to wear a mask, hat, and nondescript clothing to protect your identity. Be mindful that that outfit can make you seem more suspicious. You know your own neighborhood best.
If it is safe for you to do so, make use of the cover of night. Depending on the hour of night, even the busiest places will likely be completely empty.
Be wary of cameras. Scouting a place out in a completely different outfit during the daytime is wise to avoid landing up on film. Make note of where the safe places to graffiti are.
For both protection and to look less suspicious, if you have a dog, take her on a walk when you do this. You can also use a baby stroller for a similar reason with the added bonus of it carrying and hiding your supplies.
None of these projects should cost more than a flat fee of $7 for materials which can be used again and again.
Pepper spray and a knife are always recommended. Biking is also favorable. For the most part, you're safe as long as you keep moving when biking.
I hope this helped give you ideas on how you can create a feminist presence in your neighborhood. Good luck and stay safe.

The mischief duo
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
"Ohhh Y/N~ come out come out wherever you are" Bucky said as he walked into the living room with Loki by his side.
You quickly rolled up into a ball and kept hidden under the blanket that you threw over yourself as you laid under the couch.
"If you come out now then maybe Lokes and I will have a little mercy on you" Bucky continued to taunt as Loki laughed.
"But it's unlikely" Loki said with a mischief grin as he and Bucky walked through the living room searching for you.
Now how the hell did you get into this sticky situation, well I'm glad you asked.
You and Peter had set up a few pranks, like putting Star Wars stickers on Bucky metal arm with super glue and switching Loki's hair care products (because of course he has them for his precious raven hair) with pink hair dye.
They had immediately known it was you for some reason and began searching the compound with you running from room to room.
Suddenly you felt a cold metal hand grab your ankle and pulling you out from under the couch, with a yelp you looked up and saw Loki and Bucky grinning down at you.
"Hi" you said with a fake innocent smile hoping you could fool them but couldn't help but laugh at Loki's bright pink hair and the stickers on Bucky's arm
"Oh you think this is funny? We'll give you something to laugh about Little Dove" Likes grinned and threw you over his shoulder.
"Hey-y what is that for" You giggle softly as you hang upside down.
"No need to act innocent Y/N, we are going to tickle you to pieces for what you did" Bucky said with a stupid smirk that matched Loki's as they walked through the halls and towards the gym.
You immediately blushed brightly at the thought of being tickled by the both of them and kicked your feet out, while still hanging over Loki's shoulder.
The god simply laughed and wrapped an arm around your legs to stop you from kicking him and scratched over the sole over you foot since you were only wearing socks.
You kicked out your feet while giggling as you wiggle around to try and get down which only caused Loki to tighten his grip on you.
"Now it's very simple" Loki said with a smirk as he threw you onto the couch and straddled your waist while Bucky pulled your arms above your head "If you tell us who helped you pull off those little stunts of yours, we'll let you go".
"Nope, not happening" you said quickly with a grin as you looked up at them.
"Oh now you're just asking for it" Bucky grinned before dragging his nails over your ribs.
You bit your lip to keep yourself from laughing but that idea went out the window when Loki started to scribble over your tummy.
You giggled softly and sucked in your tummy but that didn't do shit because the stupid god just squeezed your sides which caused a belly laugh from you.
"Your laugh is just so adorable Y/N" Loki cooed as he dipped his picky in your belly button and stroked around on your tummy with his thumb.
"i-i do NOthhihibih"! You giggled as you tried to get away from his hands.
"I knew you were ticklish but this i didn't expect" Bucky taunted from behind you before suddenly drilling into your ribs.
You threw your head back as you laughed hysterically, everyone on the team knew that your ribs are one of your dead spots and took advantage of it almost everyday. But not like Bucky did, he counted your ribs while you went breathless with laughter.
"BUCKY STOP ITHIHIHIHI" you screamed through your laughing as you tossed around.
"Only if you tell us who helped you" they both said with that stupid smirk.
"Okay OKAY"!
"Hmm I don't know, who knows if you might lie" Buck said as he tapped bis chin in thought.
"It was Peter" you said out of breath.
"The spiderling, i should have known" Loki laughed before looking at Bucky "Think the kid had enough for now"? He looked at you with a laugh.
"For now, but rest assured Doll we'll come after you again after we have had a little chat with Peter" Buck said with a dark chuckle before letting go of your arms.
"Now I like the sound of that, a little mischief is always good" Loki said with a smirk before climbing off of you and kissing your forehead, he and Bucky walked off towards Peter's room with the same evil grin.
You didn't wait a second before running towards your room just as you heard Peter's hysterical laugh through the halls "You traitor"!
You locked yourself in your room for the rest of the day and even though you were exhausted from laughing you couldn't get rid of the goofy smile on your lips.
You had learned a lesson today, never mess with the Mischief duo, or at least.
Never get caught ;)
