“The greatest gift that you can give to others is the gift of unconditional love and acceptance” -Brian Tracy 
I was eighteen when everything made sense for me. 
I was on a school trip and I was going around town with my friends. The spring just hit the city and the petals fell from the trees onto the busy streets. Writing in my notebook about the different sights was hard to do because there was no surface to write neatly. How was my teacher expecting nice work? I just tried my best to write it as neatly as I could. 
I saw a little shop that was selling little charms and I couldn’t stop myself. There was a cute cat that was holding a heart, they were all cute but one caught her eye. It was a hamster holding a heart that said LUCK in bold letters. She gently picked it up and the shopkeep smiled at me, “Interested?” 
“Yes...how much?”
The older lady shook her head and took the charm, “No worries. It’s free for you.”
I was confused and tilted my head at her, “Free? Why-”
“It can give you luck in the future with your job, education, and more importantly love.”
“Love?” 
The lady nodded her head and handed me a special red velvet bag with gold symbols, “Good luck.”
I waved goodbye to her and walked away with a little smile on my face. Love. I have always wanted love ever since my mom told me about her love story with my dad. It just sounded so perfect and beautiful. Who wouldn’t want to fall in love with their soulmate? 
It was an empty street and it was pretty with the flowers covering the park cars. I put my hair in a low ponytail and continued to walk to the next place that was on the paper. I saw a light pink tissue on the street and I looked up to see an older woman with her bike. I picked up the tissue and ran towards her, “Excuse me, you dropped this.”
All of a sudden, she fell to the floor. I took off my sweater and placed it under her head. I looked around me and I saw an EpiPen. I picked it up and looked at her face to see it was swollen alongside her arm. She stared at the EpiPen and started to panic. She had never used an EpiPen, she’s only ever seen one on TV.
“Help!! Someone, help!!” 
“What’s happening!?”
She looked up and saw an older man making his way to her. His eyes were kind and his smile made her feel okay. He kneeled next to her and pushed some hair behind the older lady, “It’s going to be okay. Seokjin! I need your help!” 
She turned her head and her eyes widened when she saw a handsome man around her age. He glanced at her but didn’t say anything. She watched them help the lady but her eyes never left “Seokjin”. He was so handsome and he knew what he was doing. The older man turned to her and gave her a soft smile, “Call an ambulance okay. She’s going to be okay thanks to you.”
“Okay.”
I watched the older lady getting rolled behind the ambulance and I stared with nervousness. Just then I felt a hand on the top of my head and she looked up to see “Seokjin'' smiling at me, “You did great.”
“Th-Thank you...my name is L/N Y/N.”
He ruffled my hair and started to walk to the ambulance but he looked back at me, “My name is Seokjin. We’ll take her to the Map of Seoul Hospital where I’m a resident, she’s going to be okay.” 
I nodded my head and watched him enter the ambulance with the older man. She continued to watch until the ambulance was out of her sight. I figured out what I wanted to do with my life and it was all thanks to Seokjin. I wanted to be a nurse to support Seokjin. 
Y/N stared at the hospital with a smile on her face, it was actually happening. She spent five years working on becoming a nurse. The amount of tests she took and all the studying paid off for this moment. Her grip around her bag strap tightened and she nodded her head, “Let’s go..” 
“Y/N!” 
She turned around and she waved with excitement, “Kook!! Tae!!”
Jeon Jungkook and Kim Taehyung ran towards her with smiles on their faces. Jungkook and Taehyung are her closest friends from nursing school. They were her rock when things got hard and they supported her like how real brothers would. Jungkook and Taehyung were going to be a pediatric nurse while Y/N was going to become a cardiovascular nurse. There were only two people who wanted to be cardiovascular nurses in their nursing program, Y/N and an acquaintance named; Park Aria. Park Aria is an amazing student and she was always on top of her classes while Y/N was in the middle. Aria belonged in the medical field and it was clear. 
“Are you ready?” 
Y/N nodded her head as the three walked through the hospital doors, “I’ll try my best. We got this, right!?” 
Jungkook nodded his head at her and looked at Taehyung, “I can’t wait to see the kids.”
Taehyung let out a small laugh and gently slapped Jungkook’s shoulder, “If you can handle blood.” 
“Don’t tease him, blood is scary.” 
Y/N went to change into her uniform and she stared at herself in the mirror. She wanted to cry but she already cried with her mom yesterday and she couldn’t ruin her uniform. She couldn’t let Seokjin see her tears. She smacked her cheeks gently and nodded her head, “Let’s do this.” 
She walked towards the cardiology station and saw Aria there. She bit her lip and closed her eyes tightly. She was always awkward with Aria not because she didn’t like her but because Aria was always serious. She didn’t want her to be uncomfortable with her. 
“Aria...good morning.” 
Aria turned towards her and gave a small smile, “Good morning, Nurse L/N.” 
Y/N’s face felt hot and she bowed her head, “So-Sorry, Nurse Park. Good morning, Nurse Park.”
Aria smiled at her and turned towards the staff. Y/N glanced at the staff and rushed to stand next to Aria. The staff smiled at them and bowed towards them, “Welcome to Cardiology. My name is Cho Chaewon and I’m the head nurse. I’m glad we have new faces.”
“I know the most here so any questions, ask me.”
Y/N turned her head to see a tan man with black glasses. He was chubby but it was like a teddy bear, he would give the best hugs, “My name is Min Minho.”
“My name is Lee Sonia.”
Aria bowed at the nurses and Y/N glanced at her. She bowed her head alongside Aria hoping she didn’t embarrass herself, “Thank you!” 
When she stood back up, there were footsteps that echoed through the room. She turned her head and she saw Seokjin reading a paper on his clipboard. Everything around her went silent and she saw Seokjin. She saw him with a spotlight and his smile that she remembered. She clenched her chest gently as he left her sight. Minho glanced at her and smirked. He leaned towards Y/N, “Are you staring at the devil?” 
“Eh? Devil?” 
Sonia nodded her head with a frown, “He’s so handsome but he’s so ruthless.”
Y/N shook her head and glanced at Seokjin, “That can’t be...he was so nice to me that day.”
“WHAT!? Nice!?”
She jumped at the sudden yell and nodded her head at Minho, “Yeah...when I was eighteen I met him. He was kind to me.”
Minho shook his head with a chuckle, “Maybe you hit your head and assumed it was him being nice.” 
Chaewon sighed and shook her head, “Now, Y/N and Aria...You guys will be heading to a lecture by the head doctor. After that, just make your way back to us and we’ll discuss teams.” 
Going down the hallway felt surreal. Y/N overheard conversations that she read in her textbook, it was exciting. She continued to make her way but at the end of the hall, she saw Seokjin. He was talking to another doctor and she couldn’t help but smile. She made her way to him and watched the other doctor leave. This is my chance....
She stood in front of Seokjin and smiled at him, “Doctor Kim, I’m so excited to work with you. It’s nice to meet you again.” 
The look he was giving, she couldn’t understand and she tilted her head, “Who are you?” 
She blinked her eyes a couple of times and felt flustered, “I’m L/N Y/N...I met you five years ago and we helped save an older woman together....” 
He raised her eyebrow and he continued to stare at her, “I have things to do...rookie, keep to yourself. No one likes to hear unwanted memories.” 
Her mouth dropped and she stared at him with a shocked face, This can’t be the same person I fell in love with... “Huh?” 
“Talking about the past or other stuff is a waste.” 
She continued to stare at him with a shocked face and he looked back at her with an annoyed look, “Eh?”
“Get back to work, rookie.” 
He walked away from her and she continued to stare at the absent spot. That can’t be him...he stole his identity. There’s no way that can- 
“Y/N? Are you okay?”
She turned around and saw Jungkook looking at her with a concerned look. She pouted and shook her head, “I met an imposter.”
“What?”
“That can’t be Seokjin...The man I fell in love with. It’s the only logical reason.”
Jungkook nodded his head and let out a small laugh, “I’ll let you believe that.” 
┊ ➶ 。˚   °┊
“Nurse L/N and Nurse Park, let me introduce you to the doctors of this unit.” 
Y/N was still in a confused daze after her encounter with Seokjin. Even during the introduction in the main hall she wasn’t really listening. Five years later she wanted to meet him and have something blossom. Now the only thing that is blossoming is pure confusion and shock. Two feelings you don’t want to feel in a hospital. 
“This is Doctor Jung.” Y/N turned to see a handsome tan man that had a heart smile. He looks very kind or he could be an imposter... 
“This is the head doctor, Doctor Kim Hyeon, and his son Kim Seokjin.”
She quickly looked away when she saw those stern brown eyes, he looks like he hates me. After a minute, she looked back to see him staring at her still. She hated this feeling. She embarrassed herself in front of him and now she has to work with him. It was a headache but she wasn’t going to give up. She wouldn’t give up on him. 
“Y/N-”
“Yes.”
Chaewon raised her eyebrow and let out a small laugh, “You don’t even know what I’m going to ask you.”
Y/N softly said sorry and bowed her head at the older woman. Embarrass myself again, come on Y/N.
“Y/N, you will be on Doctor Kim’s team.”
Y/N looked between the father and son duo. She was hoping it was with his father, it would be easier for her. “Which one?”
“Obviously mine. Stupid.”
Her eyes widened and looked at Seokjin who was shaking his head at her. She bit her lip and rubbed her arm gently, “Right…sorry.”
Doctor Hyeon laughed at this and shook his head, “Y/N, I appreciate your enthusiasm. It makes me happy to see the new generation excited to help.”
Y/N smiled at this and it was the first time today she felt truly happy, “Always excited to help, Doctor.”
She heard a scoff and glanced at Seokjin who was rolling his eyes. She didn’t let this get to her because she was telling the truth. She wanted to help everyone and make people’s lives easier. It was her duty as a nurse now. 
Chaewon put the clipboard on her desk and she clapped her hands, “Okay, now let’s head towards our teams and help our patients.”
“Yes!”
Y/N was following Seokjin at a distance. Down the hall, everyone was glancing at him and she realized that everybody has a crush on him. He was handsome and he was the top doctor here, what’s not to like? He opened the door to the main doctor's office and she bowed to the other doctors before catching up with Seokjin. She quickly sat in the chair next to him as she continued to look over the clipboard as the sound of keys echoed through the empty room. She couldn’t look up from the gray board and the words before her gave her comfort (even if it was a diagnosis). 
Seokjin sighed and turned towards her, “Shouldn’t you be assisting me and not just sitting there?” 
She swallowed some spit and looked at him with nervous eyes, “Well, Doctor, you didn’t give me any assignment...”
“You’ve been reading the same paper for thirty minutes, shouldn’t you know what your assignment is?” 
“Huh?” She glanced down at the paper and re-read it. Her eyes widened and realized that it was telling her about a patient. She looked up at Seokjin who was smirking at her with a raised eyebrow, “Well?”
She stood up from her seat and bowed at him, “I’ll be going.” 
He watched her leave and he couldn’t help but let a small laugh escape. Hoseok glanced at him with curiosity and leaned towards him, “Did you just laugh?”
Seokjin turned towards him and rolled his eyes, “Do you have the report I needed this morning?” 
“O-Oh, don’t change the subject.” 
Y/N walked into the room and the frown she once had was replaced. She quickly made her way to Jungkook who was helping a little girl, “Kook~!” 
Jungkook turned around and smiled at her, “Y/N, how was the rest of the morning?” 
She frowned and shook her head, “I’m on his team...I’m happy but also sad.”
“Don’t let him bother you. Why are you here?” 
“Ah.” She showed him the clipboard and then looked around the ward, “I’m looking for Seo Jimin.” 
“Ah, Jimin. She’s sleeping right now. She just had her blood drawn.”
Y/N nodded her head and looked down at the little girl, “Hello, what’s your name?”
“Kimmy.” 
“Pleasure to meet you Kimmy, I’m Nurse L/N.”
Kimmy tilted her head and pointed towards her, “Idiot.” 
“Eh?” Kimmy started laughing and she ran from them leaving Y/N with a shocked face. She looked towards Jungkook and frowned, “Did I piss someone off? Why is everything going wrong today?”
Jungkook patted her back gently and offered her a gentle smile, “It’s okay Y/N. Things will get better.” 
“Better my ass...”
“Don’t swear. Kids can hear.”
“Sorry...Can you show me Seo Jimin’s room?” 
They walked down the hall and she smiled as the kids laughed through the empty halls. It was different from the cardio halls. In those halls, it felt like she had to be serious and she saw Taehyung talking to a nurse with a clipboard. He looked like he had been doing this for years. She smiled at this and continued to follow Jungkook. 
“This is Seo Jimin’s room.”
Y/N nodded her head and peeked her head through the curtains to see the eleven-year-old she read about. Jimin looked up and gave her a small wave, “Are you my new nurse?” 
“Kind of, my name is Y/N. I’m from Doctor Kim’s office.”
“Jinnie? He’s the greatest, isn’t he?” 
Y/N let out a small laugh and nodded her head I thought he was, “He is. You're my first patient.” 
“What kind of tests are you doing for me?”
Y/N sat on the bed gently and shook her head, “I’m here to meet you.” She looked around and saw hamster stickers on her wall with a familiar K-pop group, “You like Red Velvet?”
Jimin's grin widened and nodded her head, “I love Yeri but Wendy is my bias.” 
“Ah, good choice. Is that why you have the hamsters?” 
“It makes me think of my room at home. It makes me smile.” 
Y/N smiled at this and nodded her head, “Music is the greatest pleasure one can have. It makes you feel happy with a simple note. It’s amazing.” 
“Y/N, I hope I get to see you more. I don’t get to talk about my music.”
“You can always talk to me. We can talk about Red Velvet, every minute of the day.” 
Jimin laughed and looked at Jungkook, “Do you like Red Velvet?” 
“I’ve heard of them.” 
Jimin pouted and leaned towards Y/N, “He’s boring. I like you.” 
At least you like me, “I like you too.” Y/N glanced down at her watch and then back at Jimin with a frown, “I have to go but don’t be afraid to push the button or call for Mr. Boring.” 
“I can still hear you.”
“Okay Nurse Y/N.” 
Y/N and Jungkook walked outside and walked towards the front desk of the pediatrician department.  She sighed and glanced at Jungkook, “She had purplish lips...I read that she’s been having shortness of breath more frequently. Any news on that?” 
“Doctor Yu says that they're waiting for a test result to see her oxygen levels...if it’s good then she can be discharged with medication but they don't think that's going to happen.”
“I saw her calendar...she has Friday circled for her discharge. I hope everything turns out for her.” 
Y/N was making her way back to the Seokjin’s office but was stopped. She looked up to see Doctor Jung giving her a friendly smile, “Are you the one who is trying to defeat the devil?”
She tilted her head and she was confused, “Devil?”
“Yeah, Jin.”
“O-Oh, Doctor Seokjin...wait-defeat?” 
Hoseok let out a laugh and nodded his head, “I think you're the one that can defeat him and I'll help you.” 
“I-I don’t want to defeat anyone!?” 
“I’ll help you with him. I’ve known him since we were kids, I’ll get him to like you back.”
Y/N’s eyes widened and she looked around her frantically, “Don’t say that so loud...wait you’ll help me? Why?”
Hoseok leaned forward with their foreheads almost touching. This caused Y/N to be stiff at the sudden action, “I want to see him happy. Let’s defeat the devil.”
Y/N smiled at this and nodded her head, “O-Okay.~” 
Hoseok looked around and glanced at the vending machine, “You want a protein bar?” 
“Oh, that sounds good. Is it chocolate?” 
“I think so, let’s go see together.” 
“Okay.”
There was a pair of annoyed eyes on her back and maybe if she saw the eyes, she would melt under the brown irises. 
“Nurse Y/N?”
“Mmm?” 
Y/N was drawing Jimin’s blood as she was making her usual rounds, “Do you think I’ll be able to leave this week?” 
Y/N's brain stopped working for a second and she swallowed her spit. She glanced at Jimin and gave her a gentle smile, “Hopefully. Medicine will always be there for you, no matter what.”
“I want to see my council friends.” 
Y/N brought the needle to the vial and smiled at Jimin, “You're on the council?” 
“Yeah, I’m the student body president.”
“Wow, that’s amazing. That means you can handle responsibility.” 
Jimin nodded her head and just then the curtains were pushed to see a group of younger kids. They all looked at Jimin with a star in their eyes and Y/N couldn’t help but feel her heart swelled. “Unnie! Can you read this for me?”
Jimin smiled and looked at Y/N, “They always come with the new books.”
Y/N glances at the book and smiles, “Reading about Spider-man. He really is amazing, right?”
“Yeah!” 
Taehyung entered the room and waved at Y/N, “Yo.” 
“Hey, you. How’s everything?” 
Taehyung shrugged his shoulders and frowned at her, “I haven’t seen you much. I missed you.”
Y/N rolled her eyes and let out a laugh. She stood up from her chair and picked up a little girl to sit next to Jimin. She rubbed the top of her head and walked towards Taehyung, “You never texted me back.” 
“Y/N, you know I don’t have my phone.”
“But you have a laptop.” 
“Be nice to me. I’ll make it up by buying you lunch.”
Y/N pursed her lips together and nodded her head, “I want crab.”
“Eh? It’s not in season though?”
“Then I guess you don’t want to make it up with me...” 
Taehyung pouted and nodded his head, “Fine.” 
“Nurse L/N is this what you do when I ask you to make your rounds?” 
Y/N stiffened and looked behind Taehyung to see Seokjin glaring at her making her feel small. She bowed to him and as soon as she did, her papers slipped out of the folder and onto the ground. She closed her eyes and she already knew he was going to get mad at her. She slowly looked up and gave him a small smile, “Sorry...”
“Are you just going to look at me or pick up the papers?” 
She nodded her head and picked up the papers in a rush. She pushed some hair back and handed him the folder, “This is the vitals for Choi Nari in room 782.” 
“It’s room 781.”
She glanced down at her paper and then back at him with a sheepish smile, “Room 781...I just took Seo Jimin’s vitals.” 
“Good job, you can draw blood. At least you can do that right.” 
Seokjin walked past her and she frowned at this, so I messed up again. Taehyung shook his head and looked at Y/N with a disapproving look, “Out of all the men, you like him.”
She glared at Taehyung and then watched Seokjin talk to Jimin with the same softness he did when she was younger, “I like him because...because he’s the same person that was kind to me on that fateful day.”
“Idiot.” 
“I heard you.”
“Nurse L/N are you going to help me or just keep talking?” 
She bowed at Seokjin and then stuck her tongue at Taehyung, “Coming!” 
Taehyung watched with a small smile on his face, “Idiot...
 ┊ ➶ 。˚   °┊
Hoseok pointed at the cafe and smiled at Y/N, “Every morning, Jin gets a mocha with a chocolate croissant.” 
Y/N glances at the cafe in the entrance of the hospital and then back at him with a shocked look, “He likes sweets?” 
Hoseok laughed while nodding his head, “Shocking?”
“He’s the opposite of sweet...salty...no maybe sour.”
“But today is Friday. He gets a white chocolate croissant.” 
“Wow, he has a strong sweet tooth.” 
Hoseok and Y/N enter the cafe and the smell of coffee hits her nose. She scrunched her nose at the smell because she wasn’t the biggest fan of coffee but then the smell of fresh pastry came. She smiled and looked into the small window, “They have fresh muffins... oh, they have strawberries!?” 
Hoseok laughed, “The strawberries are really good.” 
“Doctor Jung?”
Y/N turned around and saw Aria looking at her with a frown. Y/N waved at her but when it wasn’t returned she slowly put her hand down. Y/N bowed at her and offered an awkward smile, “Good morning Aria.” 
“Good morning Nurse L/N. Doctor Jung, are you just coming in?” 
Hoseok turned towards her and nodded his head, “Yeah, would you like a coffee?” 
Aria let a smile appear and she shook her head, “You don’t have to...I appreciate it though.” 
“You should let me treat you after yesterday. You were the only one that caught her block artery.” 
“I had you to help me...I should be saying thank you, Doctor Jung.”
“Give yourself credit.” 
Y/N glanced between the two and she heard wedding bells. She smiled and looked at Hoseok, “Aria is amazing. She was always on top of the classes.” 
Hoseok smiled at this and nodded his head, “I can see that. You're talented. I’m glad you're on my team.”
“Doctor Jung...” 
Y/N looked past Aria and she rushed to the entrance, “Good morning Doctor Kim.” 
Seokjin rolled his eyes and moved past her, “You're blocking the entrance.”   
Y/N moved away and bit her lip, “Sorry...”
“Ah, Jin.”
Seokjin looked up and saw Hoseok with a smile on his face, “What?” 
“I was ordering Y/N a muffin. Would you like a coffee?” 
Seokjin glanced at Y/N and was already looking at him with a smile, “Muffin?”
“What was that?”
Seokjin let out a small cough and shook his head, “I said nothing. I want nothing.” 
Seokjin went to the cashier and ordered his usual but he glanced at the strawberry muffin. He looked over his shoulder to see Y/N talking to Hoseok with a wide smile on her face. He looked back at the cashier and nodded his head, “The muffin too, please.” 
“I had to give her a quick stitch with Doctor Yu.”
“Y/N, you learn on the fly. Good work.” 
“Thank you, Doctor Jung.” Just then a brown paper hit her face and she let out a small hmph. She looked to the side and saw Seokjin holding the said bag that hit her, “Eh?” 
“It's a muffin. Take it.” 
She looked at the bag and then at him with a wide smile, “You bought me a muffin? Is this going to be our thing on Fridays?”
Seokjin rolled his eyes and looked at Hoseok, “Don’t you have a meeting with my dad?” 
Hoseok glanced at his watch and cussed under his breath, “I’ll see you later Y/N.” 
“Bye Doctor Jung.” 
Y/N took the bag and looked at him with curious eyes, “What flavor?”
“Strawberry.” 
“Really? I wanted to try these. Thank you, Doctor Kim.” 
“Hurry up and eat that so we can get to work. No slacking today.”
“Yes, Doctor.”
“Don’t salute.” 
Doctor Yu frowned and looked at Y/N, “Sadly Seo Jimin won’t be discharged.”
Y/N looked at her and then back at the papers, “Her oxygen levels...you don’t mean...”
“Yes, a heart transplant.” 
Y/N stood in the office and glanced at Seokjin with a frown, “Isn’t she young for this?” 
“Nurse L/N, if someone needs treatment then they need it.”
Y/N nodded her head and looked down at her shoes. She felt stupid for saying that and she got scolded again. How many times will she get scolded by Seokjin? 
Hyeon looked at his son, “Now Jin. Behave. It was a good question. Y/N always asks good questions regarding patients.” 
Y/N looked up and smiled at his father, “Doctor Kim...” 
Seokjin rolled his eyes and glanced at his dad, “I’ll be going. I have to talk to Jimin’s mother.” 
Y/N watched him walk out and frowned, “Mean.”
Hyeon let out a laugh and stood up from his desk, “Don’t worry about him.” 
“Doctor Kim?” 
“You're doing great. He’s harsher on you because he sees potential in you.” 
Her eyes widened and it looked like she had stars in her eyes, “Really!? You think so!?” 
Hyeon nodded his head and crossed his arms over his chest, “I know so.” 
“All you do is talk, hurry up.” 
Y/N turned around to see Seokjin standing there with an annoyed face. She bowed at him and nodded his head, “Sorry. I’m coming.”  She turned towards Hyeon and bowed, “Bye Doctor Kim.” 
Hyeon let out a small laugh, “Bye, Y/N.” 
Hyeon watched them leave with a smile on his face. He glanced down at the picture of his wife and smiled, “I think she's good for him. What do you think, Yuri?” 
Y/N followed Seokjin but she was looking down at her shoes. She felt like if she looked at his back then he would grow arms from his back and attack her. She was so focused on her white shoes that she walked into his back when he stopped. She looked up to be met with his disapproving look, “Sorry...” 
Seokjin didn’t say anything but it quickly changed when he saw Jimin’s mom, “Mrs. Seo, thank you for coming by.”
Mrs. Seo gave him a smile and nodded her head, “I’ll do anything for Jimin. Will she be able to leave today?” 
Seokjin frowned and shook his head, “That’s what I need to talk to you about. Let’s go talk in the hallway.”
Y/N bowed at Mrs. Seo and she glanced at Jimin who was soundly asleep. She smiled at this and took out a small plushie from her pocket. She placed the hamster right to her and she smiled when she saw her hug it.
“She’s been sleeping for almost the whole day.”
She turned around and saw Taehyung with a frown, “I heard....”
“She’s not getting discharged is she?”
Y/N shook her head and looked at Taehyung, “How was your day?”
“Jungkook forgot his lunch so I shared mine. I’m hungry.” 
Y/N let out a small laugh, “You're always saving him.” 
“I can save you but you won’t let me.”
Y/N glanced at Jimin and shrugged her shoulders, “I can take care of myself.”
“You would let Jim take care of you.” 
She frowned at his tone and looked at him, “You always bring him up.” 
“Because it's the truth. This weekend we're going to the crab place?”
“If that’s okay with you?”
“It's perfect for me.” 
“Nurse Kim, Nurse L/N, let’s leave Jimin’s room. She needs rest.” 
Y/N glances over Taehyung’s shoulder to see Seokjin glaring but not her. She followed his eyes to see him glaring at Taehyung. She frowned at this but didn’t say anything. She bowed at Taehyung and made her way to Seokjin, “Sorry Doctor Kim. I was checking her vitals.” 
“Good. We need to check on Sakura in room 342. Tell me her condition.”
“Right.” She turned around and waved goodbye to Taehyung, “I’ll see you this weekend.”
“Nurse L/N, hurry up.” 
“Sorry, coming!” 
The walk to Sakura’s room was quiet and Y/N kept glancing at her shoes and his Seokjin’s back. Seokjin’s shoulders were so broad and she wondered what it would look like underneath or what he would look like with just his doctor's coat. Her mind started to wonder and she couldn’t help but smile.
“Y/N, would you like to treat me?”
“Nurse L/N, did you hear me?”
She shook her head and looked at him, “Eh?”
He sighed and looked at the paper, “Sakura is twenty-six, she’s been having breathing problems. Her heart rate has been slower than usual. We need to do an echo.” 
Y/N nodded her head, “Echo?” 
“Have you seen one?” 
Y/N shook her head and he sighed, “Then I’ll show you.”
Being this close to Seokjin was a dream. He was showing her Sakura’s heart but the only thing she saw was hearts in her eyes. The way his hair fell to his forehead and his gentle voice when he talked to patients made everything lighter. It felt like clouds were around her and Cupid was shooting her heart. 
“Okay Sakura, we’re done. We will tell you the results when we get them.” 
“Thank you, Doctor Kim.”
The two walked out and Seokjin crossed his arms over his chest, “What were we looking at in the echo?”
Y/N stared at Seokjin and bit her lip, “The chambers...”
“And why is that?”
“To see fluid...”  
Seokjin sighed and shook his head, “Can you be more confident Y/N?”
Her eyes widened and she looked at him with a smile, “You said Y/N?” 
“Focus.” 
“Can I call you Jin?”
“Focus.” 
Y/N was at her desk when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked up and smiled, “Doctor Jung.” 
“How's the devil?” 
“Still the devil but he called me by name. I hope I can hear it one more time.”
Hoseok laughed and nodded his head, “You're going somewhere with him.” 
“You think so?” 
“Definitely. I was going to ask about Seo Jimin's vitals from earlier.” 
Y/N nodded her head and started going through her papers. She started telling Hoseok but she was unaware of the familiar brown eyes on her. He looked between them and he couldn’t help but glare at Hoseok. He shook his head and made his way down the hall away from the scene. 
“I was actually going to check on her...this isn’t easy. She was so excited to be discharged.” 
Hoseok checked his watch and sighed, “It’s late. She should be sleeping but by all means you can pop in. It doesn’t hurt to check.” 
“Thank you, Doctor.” 
Walking in the halls when it's night felt weird. There were fewer people which means it's quiet. The only sounds you can hear are the shoes on the tiles and the small conversations between the staff. Y/N walked down the hallway and when she was about to open Jimin's door, she noticed it was open. Her eyes widened and opened the door quietly. She took her phone out and shined the light to see Jimin’s bed empty, “Shit.”
Y/N ran out of the room but she bumped into someone, “I’m so sorry-”
“Y/N?”
She looked up and felt relieved, “Jungkook, you're just the person I needed. Seo Jimin is missing from her bed.” 
The nurses were running around the hospital including Y/N. She was in the stairwell that led up to the roof and her eyes widened when she saw the familiar hamster stickers on the floor. She ran to the roof and slammed open the door. She saw Jimin crying on a bench with her knees to her chest. Y/N frowned and slowly walked to her, “Jimin...” 
“Leave me alone.”
Y/N sat next to her and wrapped her arm over her shoulders, “Never...You're upset about the discharge, aren’t you?”
“I thought I was getting better. I was doing everything right but my body...it wouldn’t let me.”  
Y/N frowned at this and gently rubbed her arm, “The body is stubborn sometimes. It matches our spirits. Remember, there's no rush in getting better. Take your time so you can be strong.” 
Jimin glanced at Y/N with a frown and red eyes, “I don’t want to be broken anymore.” 
“You're not broken. Don’t ever say that. You have so much love that your heart just couldn’t take it. Keep that love and positivity. I know it's hard but it will get through so much and it will get better.” 
“Will you be with me?”
“Of course I will.” Y/N let her go and took off her cardigan to place over Jimin’s shoulder. She pushed some hair off of the younger girl’s forehead, “I’ll be with you okay. Every step.”
“I’m sorry I ran away...”
Y/N shook her head and looked up at the sky, “I get it. I would run away too. Look at all the stars shining.” 
“I like the stars.” 
“It’s pretty like you. Let’s get you back in bed before it becomes freezing.” 
The two slowly walked down the stairs but they stopped when Seokjin and Taehyung came their way.
“Jimin!” 
Jimin smiled at Taehyung and waved at him, “Tae, I’m sorry I ran away...I just needed a moment.”
Taehyung sighed and went to her level, “I’m just glad you're okay.”
Seokjin glanced at Y/N and noticed the goosebumps. He slipped off his jacket and draped it around her shoulders. Her face was in pure shock but he avoided her eyes, “You can’t get sick.”
He walked away as she stared at his back. She smiled to herself and brought his coat closer to her, “It smells so good.” 
“Creep.”
“Shut up.” 
When she was walking out of the hospital, her eyes landed on Seokjin who was waiting. She flattened out her clothes and walked towards him, “Goodnight Doctor Kim.”
“Wait.”
She stopped in her tracks and slowly turned around to look at him, “Yes?”
“You're always ready to help. No matter what it is.” 
“Doctor-”
“Just like that day. You rushed to help that older woman and you didn’t even question it. You're meant to help people.” 
Y/N felt the heat rush to her face as she stared at him with a smile, “Seokjin...” 
“You're meant to help people, even if you're annoying.” He walked away and Y/N was left alone standing in the middle of the entrance. She raised her hands to the sky like in a victory pose, “HE REMEMBERS ME!” 
 ┊ ➶ 。˚   °┊
It’s been three months since Y/N entered the hospital and it felt like a dream. Well, not a dream because of the sick patients but a dream because of Seokjin. Since that night, it felt like they were closer. He only insulted her three times a day instead of ten, that’s huge. Hoseok has been getting her muffins every Friday but then on Saturday Seokjin buys her tea and a breakfast sandwich. She was confused because she didn’t remember telling him her favorite tea or breakfast sandwich but she wasn’t going to fight him. It was a sign that he paid attention to her or someone told him. She wants it to be the latter. 
“You want me to be your date for your brother's wedding?”
Taehyung nodded his head and took a sip of his tea, “Yeah, sorry.”
“Why didn’t you tell me before?” 
“I honestly didn’t think I needed one but my mom was pressuring me.”
Y/N sighed and leaned back in her chair, “I’ll do it but I want lobster.”
“You and your seafood. Fine.”
Y/N glanced at the exit and saw Seokjin leaving. Y/N stood up from the chair and downed her tea, “I’ll see you later.”
“Y-”
Taehyung watched her leave the lunch court and he frowned at himself. He looked down at his tea and shook his head, “Always the second choice.” 
Y/N ran towards Seokjin and smiled, “Doctor Kim!” 
Seokjin turned around and sent a glare her way, “Why are you following me?”
Y/N looked around and then gave him a confused look, “I always work with you...it’s been like that for three months.” 
“Let’s go before I change my mind.”
Seokjin walked away and she pouted, “Why is he being mean?” She shrugged her shoulders and followed him to his office. She waved at Hyeon who waved back and she sat next to him. She started to go through the paperwork with him (strutting here and there). Hyeon watched from his desk and smiled to himself. He could tell from his son’s eyes that he was happy but he wanted him to figure it out. He just wished it was faster. 
“Nurse L/N, did you check on Lee Sam in room 109?” 
She flipped the papers through her clipboard and shook her head, “No...it says he’s under Hoseok.”
“You're going to work with Hoseok today.”
She raised her eyebrow and looked at him with a confused look, “Why? I like working with you...we work well together.” I also want to look at your face. 
“I’m going to be in the office all day. You need more training.”
“I can train with you. I don’t mind.”
“Also, Nurse Kim...Make sure you do your work. Don’t talk to him that much.”
Y/N furrowed her eyebrows and slowly nodded her head, “Okay? I’ll be going...bye?” 
She left the office and Jin sighed to himself, “Dad the more you stare, the more annoying it gets.”
“I can’t help it. My son is jealous, it's a sight I neve thought I would see.” 
“Shut up old man.” 
Hoseok handed Y/N her clipboard and let out a laugh, “You really have no idea why Jin sent you to me?” 
Y/N shook her head and closed the curtains, “He said it's because I need more training. What other reason would it be?”
Hoseok sighed and shook his head, “You're so smart but also so stupid.”
“Eh! What did I do!?”  
That night, Y/N was walking down to her favorite ramen restaurant and she was shocked to see him sitting in the middle. She pushed some hair back and sat next to him, “How was the office work?” 
Seokjin put down his chopsticks and shrugged his shoulders, “It was office work.” 
She nodded her head and glanced down at his bowl, “You just eat the noodles and juice?” 
“Yeah, why?”
“You need the toppings. They have the best fried shrimp, it tastes so good with the broth.” Seokjin turned towards her and she was caught off guard with his look, “Is everything okay?” 
“You can stare at me all the time but I can’t do the same?”
“Eh? I don’t stare...I admire...that isn’t any better...”   
He let out a small laugh and turned back to his ramen, “Order something. I’ll pay for it.”
She gasped and put her hands over her mouth, “Like a date?”
“It’s whatever you want it to be.”
She choked on her spit and he turned towards her, “Do I have to do mouth to mouth?”
Y/N choked again but this time she met with his smirk. That dinner was the best dinner Y/N ever had and it was because she felt seen by him for once. She wasn’t the clumsy nurse that always stuttered. She was her true self with him tonight. And she got fried shrimp. 
┊ ➶ 。˚   °┊
“Tae, this wedding is so long.”
“Y/N, it’s a wedding.” 
“So...”
She sat next to him at the reception and of course, she knew no one. The wedding was cute with the bride's dress being beaded from top to bottom. Sometimes she forgets Taehyung’s family was rich. She glanced down at her chicken and ate a piece as Taehyng talked to his uncle. She looked up to take a sip of her champagne but choked when she saw Seokjin casually talking to the bride. She turned towards Taehyung and slapped his arm, “What the fuck?”
“Ow, what?”
She pointed towards Seokjin and then looked at Taehyung, “Why is he here?” 
Taehyung followed her finger and raised his eyebrow, “What a small world?” 
She wiped her mouth and stood up, “I have to talk to him.”
“You don’t have to. You want to, there’s a difference” 
“No, I have to talk to him because I’m in this pretty dress and I have make-up on. He’s never seen that before.”
“Go for it, I can’t stop you anyways.”
She nodded her head and she rushed towards him leaving Taehyung behind. He sighed to himself and took a sip of his whiskey, “I shouldn’t be shocked but...here I am.”
Y/N pushed her hair and felt the confidence coming from within, this was her moment, “Seokjin?”
Seokjin stopped talking to the bride and turned towards her, “Ah, Y/N. I wasn’t expecting you here.”
“Eh? I told you tho-”
“I wasn’t expecting you.” 
She slowly nodded her head and she turned towards the bride, “I’m going to borrow him real quick.”
Y/N took his wrist and headed out of the ballroom with butterflies in her stomach. When they were in a secluded area she let go of his wrist and leaned against the wall with a nervous look. He looked at her with a raised eyebrow and loosened up his tie, “Is everything okay?” 
“No...I can’t hold it back anymore.”  
“Mmm?”
“Kim Seokjin, I like you.”
“I know.”
Y/N stared at him and mouth dropped, “What?”
Seokjin leaned forward and pinned her against the wall with a smirk, “I know you like me.”
“How?”
He gave her a “Are you serious look?” but quickly wiped it off, “I know.” 
“And you didn’t say anything? Why?”
He leaned forward and placed a quick kiss on her lips making her eyes wide. When he leaned away he placed his forehead against hers, “I was waiting for the right moment.” 
“Ri-Right moment? Was this the right moment? I thought the right moment was-”
“Y/N, I liked you the moment we met. When we saved our first patient together.”
“Really?”
Seokjin let out a small laugh and leaned forward placing a kiss on her nose, “I loved you for all this time. Every day you give me a reason to be my best self. I want to be a better doctor because of you. You always want to help and solve everything, how could I not love you?” 
“Yo-You love me?” 
“I do, I really do.” 
“Holy shit.” 
He leaned away and smiled, “Well, do you-”
“I love you...sorry, you didn’t finish your sentence.” 
“I have a room in this hotel...do you want to go up?” 
“Yeah....Yeah, I do.” 
There were moments when Y/N couldn’t believe stuff. Like when she was five, she couldn’t believe that she saw a double rainbow. At this moment, she couldn’t believe she was going to Seokjin’s hotel room. The man that she’s been in love with since she was eighteen, loves her. He loves her like the way she loves him. What more can she want? 
When the door closed, she stared at him with wide doe eyes that made Seokjin want to die. He walked towards her and gently touched her cheek with his thumb, “I love you...I wish I was more romantic but I would go to the ends of the earth to show you. Roses can’t even express how I love you but they can try. Y/N, you are my person. I love everything about you...even when you ramble.”
She felt tears well up in her eyes as she looked at him, “I wish I had that on my phone...it would be your new ringtone.” 
He laughed and leaned forward without their lips, “No need for that, I’ll tell you every day for the rest of your life.” 
“Promise?”
“Promise.” 
The light of the hotel room illuminated their faces perfectly. The space between them was enough to create a silhouette. They leaned forward and her eyes gave him the answer he needed. Their lips gently touched, making them one under the light. Her arms slowly moved up and wrapped around his neck as he went around her waist. There was no space, no light was going to escape between them on this night.  
“Ji-Jin!” She gasped as Jin inserted a second finger inside, pumping it as fast as he could. She bit her lip harshly trying not to bother the poor people next door, “You don’t have to be quiet.” 
“Jin, there are people-”
“I rented out the rooms around me so I don’t have to deal with loudness.”
“Wow, that was really hot to hear actually.” 
His fingers curled inside of her and it was gently touching her most sensitive spot that made her buck her hips. He pressed his palm to her clit as his fingers continued to move in her, “So good for me.”
“On-Only for you.” 
After the intense orgasm, she glanced at him with a needy look, “Do you have a condom?”
“Of course I do.”
“Take off the rest of your clothes. It's not fair I’m naked and you're not.” 
“Your wish is my command.” 
When Jin comes back, the kiss turns from innocent with pure love to sloppy and needy. He gently pushes her up to have her lay on the pillows as he kisses down her neck. He placed a kiss on top of her breast and looked up, “I would eat you out but I can’t wait any longer. Next time I’ll do it.”
“Ne-Next time?”
“Of course, there will be next time. This pussy will only crave for me after I’m done.” 
He rolled the condom onto his dick and looked up at her with a smile. She returned the smile and nodded her head, “I trust you.” 
He kissed her neck and with a needy moan, she arched her back pressing her body closer to his. She could feel the heat from him and it was only turning her on more. Seokjin positions himself between her legs, his tip teasing her entrance. The waiting was killing her and she kept looking at him with pleading eyes. He begins to enter but once he is halfway, he pulls out causing her to moan out. He smirked at the reaction and stuck himself back in but fully this time. 
He let out a groan as he looked at her face, “I love you.”
“I-I love you more.” 
With each thrust, the love that they were both holding back was flooding up the room. The sounds of moans and wet slaps of their bodies coming together echoed. His movements became more urgent with each passing second, “You’re so...fuck... perfect.” 
Her cheeks flushed from all the love confession but she couldn’t help but feel so blessed in this moment. He gently pushed the hair out of her face as she brought her thumb over his lips, a gentle touch to tell him what her heart wanted to say. His cock continued to pound into her g-spot and each thrust was sending her pure pleasure through her body. 
“Let go, baby.”
She leaned forward placing a kiss on his lips when she felt the intensity coming over her. When she leaned away she felt like there was no air left in her body. Her body felt numb against his but she didn’t want this to end anytime soon. His voice was strained with the pleasure he was feeling, the clenching sensation was making him stutter. 
“Cumming.” 
She clenched her pussy around him harder and this was his breaking point. She was overwhelmed by the intensity of the pleasure as his head fell into her chest. The gasping of air filled the room as they stayed still in this moment. He slowly looked up and kissed her forehead with a soft smile, “My cure...”

I read on Twilight's wiki page that Endo always intended on him having a high paying job (like a doctor or a lawyer) and in the end he chose to make Loid a psychiatrist due to his affinity for psychology.
And can I say. Lawyer Loid was such a missed opportunity. So much comedic potential.
Like. you have Loid Forger, notorious in the firm for winning every case that comes across him, due to his clear and concise arguments and knowledge of the law. Then you look at his home life and see that this man can't win an argument against his four six year old daughter. The minute her eyes turn teary he folds so easily. Like. That's comedy gold.
And I feel like on first meeting Yuri would hate him even more. Like, I feel like Yuri's the type of guy who goes, "a defense attorney? AKA a professional liar?" (← is a cop lying to his sister about his job) and his internal monologue just goes, "what does yor see in him? sure, he's handsome, smart, popular in his firm--" [angrily munching on food Loid made him]
And there's news of a murder on several news channels while they're having dinner one day, and the news agency names the suspect and Loid offhandedly goes, "Oh, my firm handled that" (I have to mention my work life for the mission, so they dont suspect I'm anything but a lawyer), and Yor goes, "I don't think a man his height could have done that. Look at the blood splatter. Had to be someone taller" And Loid's looking at her like: 👁️👁️, and Yor fumbles with, "Oh, Yuri used to love those detective shows when we were kids" and Loid's like, "anything you say <3. do you want some more chicken?"
And, logically, if he's assigned to a popular/high-profile enough firm, there's a higher likelihood of him making contact with high-profile businesspeople (sure they have their own legal teams, but for a consultation or something?) rather than a psychiatrist. (Again, my own opinion)
But the only downside is whenever he pulls some medical shit he cant go, "Oh, I learned that in med school" but the natural excuse can be "oh, i was a sergeant, i learned some basic medical knowledge during the war"
Anyway. Lawyer Loid could have been peak comedy.

if it isn't too much trouble or rush, perhaps a request about the first kiss with vinny santorini?
💐💣Vinny (atlantis) x reader First Kiss Headcanons💥🌹
Tumblr media
(Yeah so um… Sorry guys for making you wait for so long on something fresher— I’m just going through it when it comes to my writing, incredibly unconfident in my skills… But I saw how many of you guys liked ‘em. For that I am extremely thankful, I love being able to provide where not many people would get it. Anyways, sorry for the long rant, here it is 💖)
(Edit : all of my headcanons are gender nonspecific when it comes to the reader, and it usually will be if no one specified)
Alright, your first kiss with each other, this sign of love transpires shortly after he overcomes the whole frigid stage of your relationship at the very beginning.
When things started becoming more... Vulnerable and soft started making themselves known, you weren't the only one to notice, your comrades, your amigos did as well. (These are certain people you may or may not know- Who are very supportive of your relationship from the get-go. Wink wink, nudge nudge.)
Um, this expedition crew sees the more than platonic relationship between you two, and all of them have varying opinions on the matter.
For example, Audrey, being the teen she is thinks it's pandering but adorable, Mole? … Not so much.
That stinky little fuck thinks it's nasty, even though he's the one who bathes himself in dirt and grime.
ANYWAYS, going back to Audrey, as I mentioned in an earlier post, (this one right here) Audrey is impatient, and not into the slow-burn trope as she tries to… Quicken the process.
And as the story progresses… Somehow Audrey lassos KIDA of all people into these evil master plans.
These teen-concocted shenanigans are good-natured of course, but they come off as… Odd to say the very least. You see… A kid who is more into mechanics isn't exactly the doctor of love, and an 8,500-8,800-year-old Atlantean woman isn't either.
Their attempts may include the following (let's start up the clown music, shall we?):
- Trying to learn more about the relationship as much as they possibly can (Audrey TRIES to ask somewhat subtle… Kida straight-up demands to know 💀)
- Posing as one partner via love letters… With those letters being very terribly written ones.
- Well, they were kinda bound to be wonky if they were written by an Atlantean warrior woman as a teenager spectates intently… And let’s be honest they could've been believable with how romantically INEPT YOU BOTH ARE, but they didn't take the time to copy your guys’s writing style/handwriting (And Sweets is the one who usually snatches these letters before you guys read them to spare you both, say thank you to Doctor Joshua Strongbear Sweets 💖).
- Putting you guys into DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. This is mainly Kida’s idea, with her being frightfully confident about it due to it working with Milo and her… Thankfully Audrey had enough common sense to dismantle the idea.
After attempt after attempt fails, Audrey finally tries to get Sweets, a man she believes would have far more experience in this kind of thing… But the doctor tells her to NOT interfere, as painful as it is to look at you two being fucking romance failures.
With Milo backing it up of course… This effectively ruined the amusement (I can see Mole just giggling and snorting at all of this, this is COMEDY GOLD TO HIM) that Mole had as Kida and Audrey ran around like two headless chickens, all the while Vinny and you were for the most part unaware of.
But of course, the doctor knew that they all just had to be patient and let things move naturally between you two, a quality that Audrey and Kida were lacking in their plots.
This moment comes to fruition as you both get time alone and find a rather nice spot in Atlantis, which… May or may not have been suggested by Sweets to one of you.
After some heartfelt words and lingering touches, you both were able to share your first kiss, which as many might expect was both sweet and awkward, as God intended 💖☺️

60 Years of Doctor Who Anniversary Marathon - C. Baker 12th Review
The Man Who Wouldn't Give Up - Short Story
Tumblr media
We got another short trip from the anthology Past Tense.
In this story the Sixth Doctor meets King Alfred the Great, who is in incognito while spying on the vikings invading his land. The Doctor has to inspire the ailing king not to give up on his quest… but not for the reasons that you would imagine.
Tumblr media
I'll give the story this, I did learn more about King Alfred here then I ever did in school. Beyond that though, the author seems more concerned with being clever then with just telling a story.
See the real reason the doctor is there is to steal some cake.
That's it.
It's revealed at the end that the Doctor is going behind Mel's back and breaking his diet by enjoying delicacies from the past.
Never mind that 'cake' in 9th century England is not the cake we have today, and is probably the whole grain stuff that Mel would approve.
Tumblr media
Never mind that half the food before the creation of the FDA and similar programs was poisoned and that the most common way to die in the past was from stomach cancer or dentistry.
Never mind that a Time Lords have a different biology to humans and so probably processes sugars, carbs, proteins, and minerals differently from us. Not to mention that not all diets work for all people the same way.
No, you're not suppose to overthink it, because it's just a comedy. Just a cute fluff piece. Except it's not very funny.
Oh the concept is hilarious!
I love the idea of the Doctor thinking up increasingly over the top ways to get around Mel's health fad restrictions, to Mel's increasing frustration at never quite being able to catch him in the act.
That's comedy gold right there!
But that's not what we get.
The author keeps us in the dark as to what is going on for too long that the set up becomes the punchline instead.. reducing it's impact.
Then there's also the unpleasant way the Doctor is described as 'portly' and 'fat' and this is somehow to implied to be his fault for not following his diet.
Even though Six was never 'fat' and being bigger then some other people isn't due to some moral failing at not being able to kept to a diet…. in fact most fad diets are actually harmful in the long run and rarely help with weight loss.
It's Mel's obsession with the latest health fads and well meaning bossy nature that is the character flaw that should be exploited for laughs here. Not the other way around.
So to summarize, this was a real missed opportunity.

Hi emptyhalf we've established that you're in my top 5 fic writers ever and i have many questions but first i just want to reiterate: if emptyhalf has 100 fans, i am one of them. if emptyhalf has 10 fans i am one of them and so on and so forth you know how it goes
now for questions:
��� Which of your fics would you call your wildest ride?
❌ What's a trope you will never write?
⛔ Do you have a fic you started, but scrapped?
😅 What's a story or scene you've created that you're a smidge embarrassed exists?
🤡 What's a line, scene, or exchange you've written that made you laugh?
🥺 u r too nice. i am just a lil old thot rly.
wildest ride is probably pick me up, no headlights, not least cus it started as pure crack and then immediately just like, escalated to a full scale pondering about parenthood and shared experiences and learning to love and be loved and most importantly put up with each other.
a trope i will never write is probably just like, generically, angst? i'm quite an unhappy person that carries a lot of trauma and although i know some people use fic as an outlet for that, i can't. it has to be an exercise in imagining something better or just... i don't think i could create anything where the characters were in pain, it just sort of goes against how i function. which isn't to say i think writing angst is wrong, obviously, it's just that it's something i'm like, mechanically incapable of doing.
oh god there are so many i started but scrapped. but my favourite one that like - oh boy, i'm never going back to this one, it's a thousand years old but a cold war au for the gp2 2016 idiot collective. it was a grand idea, which i should have known i wouldn't finish because i'm not about that but i did like it - there's a load under the cut at the end of this.
things i am embarrassed exist? uhm. i should really be more ashamed. i suppose there's some george/alex/lando abo that i have never admitted to being mine and which is fully disgusting filth with no plausible excuse. mostly i don't really feel too much shame or at least, only a regular amount.
oh man, things that make me laugh - i think i'm way too funny, it's incredibly embarrassing. like honestly, i shouldn't be allowed. but the one that i'm fondest of is from turn my heart into something gold where lando's in lockdown and honestly i think this is one of my best comedy beats ever:
So, yes, he’s been having personal growth but it’s not like it’s the love of his life or whatever. Which makes it fine that Carlos is leaving. Carlos can just fuck right off to Ferrari, good for him because who knows if they’ll ever actually go racing again anyway or if he’s going to, like, die of some combination of boredom and wanking that doctors will call ‘just sad.’
which shows you how much writers shouldn't be allowed to think they're funny haha. but yes. anyway, a load of old rubbish about gp2 drivers under the cut.
Artem is having what, objectively, called be called an ‘extremely bad day in the office.’ If he had an office. Or was in one. 
In actuality, he’s in a cell in the basement of a chicken processing plant that’s a blatantly flimsy front for this MI5 operation. Artem’s lived through some fairly extreme times in Soviet food supply and even he doesn’t think people would voluntarily eat this “Shippam’s Paste”.
It’s kind of his fault. Well, entirely his fault - depending on your view - in the sense that he most certainly is a Soviet spy and it’s MI5’s remit to prevent him from continuing his duties in the fashion he prefers to. And also in the sense that he got caught.
Kvyat is going to bollock the fuck out of him. Artem’s conveniently good at passing for Western, until he opens his mouth at least, so he’s had a fairly pleasant time of things thus far, pretending to be an artist with an interest in ancient history that’s given him access to all kinds of lovely academic facilities teeming with people keen to tell him about their research over a couple of pints of ale, without asking any awkward questions about his accent.
All of which maybe made him maybe more comfortable than he should have been. Which is how, after a successful evening of working out what Britain’s involvement in Egypt was currently he’d fucked it up entirely and ended up talking to some young French mathematician.
Technically, the guy’s work wasn’t even remotely relevant to his objectives but he’d had very compelling eyes. And then two whiskeys later he’d discovered he was ineptly attempting to chat up a codebreaker when some six foot tall bourgie had barrelled his way into Artem, shoved him up against the bar and called him “bloody commie scum.” Guilty as charged.
 Now he was extremely uncomfortable, entirely deprived of pleasant (or otherwise) company and starting to get really quite desperate for a piss. While his training had covered all kinds of exciting situations fairly thoroughly, it seemed they’d omitted the bit about how to take a slash whilst cuffed to a chair at the wrists and ankles in some cold, meat-smelling underground hell.
He hears footsteps approaching down the corridor - slightly too fast and definitely too forceful, like the person is absolutely furious and looking for something, anything to take it out on, including the floor if they have to. Which seems like potentially bad news for Artem and definitely his bladder.
The door bangs open ferociously and - oh, great, it’s the fucking Earl of Angry from earlier, he should’ve guessed. Artem attempts to reposition himself into the louchest pose he can manage without breaking a wrist or pissing himself.
“Listen up you commie bastard, I’ve got no time for this - what were you trying to get out of Pierre?”
Pierre, eh. Interesting tidbit. “A… how do you say it? Blow job.”
Duke Pissedofferson goes through a few phases of gobsmacked and incandescent with rage, working his fairly magnificent jaw. “I’m sorry what did you just say?”
“Is that not the word? I meant sex.”Artem plasters on his most pleasant smile and he’s not absolutely sure why he wants to rile the Englishman up even more because this is already a pretty bad situation but he figures his options are fairly limited and he might at least get some useful information.
It earns him a slap across the face, which he guesses is deserved. “I am supposed to believe that you just happen to be talking to the best codebreaker in the force because you fancy him? You’re a fucking joke, Agent Markelov.”
Ooh, that’s bad. How’s Mr 137th-In-Line-For-The-Throne got his name already? Artem’s been calling himself Schumacher because it turns out British people really are incapable of discerning between different forms of foreign, for the most part. 
“He’s rather charming,” Artem decides to just fucking go for it, “Anyway, the French are half communist.”
“What?” Ambassador Asshole has reached a new form of anger for which Artem isn’t sure words have been invented yet but which expresses itself in another vicious slap, leaving his eyes stinging and a very strong urge to whimper.
“If you keep that up I’m going to piss myself, just to warn you.” Artem feels like that’s fair. 
“You’re a fucked up son of a bitch, Markelov.” Earl Angrypants seems slightly shocked at himself for the obscenity, throwing a file down on the table that Artem’s instantly alarmed to realise fairly clearly has his name on. Ok, this has got worse.
“Who are you, anyway,” he grits out to waste some time, “Duke Cheekbones?”
To his credit, the MI5 agent doesn’t even dignify that with looking at Artem, instead sitting down in the chair opposite him and flicking through the file with a flourish, “I know you’re KGB, I know you’ve been sniffing round every bar in Oxford for whatever sad details you can screw out of bumbling professors and archaeology students. You’re useless and harmless so we’ve been ignoring you.”
Ow. Artem most certainly is not useless. “Bigger problems, eh?”
He’s pushing slightly but he knows there are more… obvious targets. Sergey’s wetworks certainly make more of a crimson trail across the Western world than Artem’s more subtle maneuvers. His interrogator raises an eyebrow at him, “What do you know about the Hatfield assassination?”
Artem laughs, “Absolutely nothing. What did you call me? Useless, you know.”
The Englishman pushes the file away from him, giving him a strongly scrutinising look - his anger’s clearly headed off quickly, leaving a more controlled annoyance that gives him a rather attractive, imperiously handsome air. If you’re into the landed gentry, that is. “I doubt that, somehow.”
“You said it.” Artem kicks the table as much as he can from his restraints, “I am serious about pissing myself by the way, you’ve had me tied up here for hours.”
“Do what you like, you depraved basta-” the enemy agent is distracted by some noise in the corridor halfway through his insult, “Oh, what the fuck ever now?”
There’s a strongly metallic clang against the door and the unmistakable noises of what sounds like a fairly heavy-duty fight. “This better fucking not be one of your friends.”
The MI5 agent goes to open the door, gets hit in the face with it as it almost caves in, knocking him squarely across the table and onto Artem - fuck, he really didn’t need an elbow to the stomach - as the unmistakable, black-clad form of Sirotkin barges in. 
“Ugh,” is about all Artem can manage as the concussed form of his interrogator slides off his lap. 
“You’re a fucking disgrace,” is all he gets from his fellow MGB agent as Sergey sets to work plying the restraints off him, grunting with the effort. 
They’re out and into the night quickly, past a trail of unconscious-or-probably-dead opposition in the dimly lit corridors. Artem takes great pleasure in emptying his bladder on the chicken plant’s wall - can only improve the product, really.
-----
“He ended up captured by Alex Lynn, I don’t think he even has a cyanide pill - what are we doing here?” Sergey is missing the cues from Kvyat that he’s already over his coping limits for the day and about to have them all shot. They’re very subtle, it’s the way Daniil is pinching the bridge of his nose with his eyes closed and has his other hand on the gun on table.
“I don’t care. I just don’t care. Please tell me either of you learnt something unrelated to fucking chicken paste or I’m sending you both to Vietnam. Together.” The last word is clearly for Sergey’s benefit - Artem’s pretty sure he’d rather go into a warzone naked than have to do so with Artem.
“Yes - there’s a French codebreaker they’ve got, Pierre something. And they’re suspicious about the Hatfield assassination, of all the things.” It’s not much but then nothing in espionage really is, until it really is. “And  - Lynn, was it? He’s angry, they’re under pressure about something.”
Artem considers not carrying on but he’s not really in a position to keep anything back, “And they’ve known who I am for awhile. They think I’m -” he makes elaborate airquotes, “-harmless.”
Kvyat snorts at that, “Hardly. Not a total waste then.” He’s removed the hand from his face, if not the gun and actually opened his eyes so Artem’s taking that as a win.
They’re in a safehouse in Banbury, drinking an inadvisably large amount of vodka for three people who probably need to send some explanatory coded messages in the near future. Or maybe not. They could just not. That would be good.
Kvyat finally removes his hand from the gun and takes a fairly large swig from his tumbler, “Ok, so - the French codebreaker is Gasly, that is interesting because the last we saw of him, he was in the US on the space programme. If they’ve got him back in Europe it’s for a reason.”
“What codes do you need to break in space?” Sergey looks genuinely interested, like someone’s about to explain alien languages to him. It’s 5-a-fucking-m and Artem thinks that, somewhere along the way, they have probably all let the stress get to them.
He definitely has, because he keeps thinking weird thoughts about how Lynn had sort of fallen on his dick and it had been really awful pressure at the time but the echo of it, with the vodka, is kind of a rough turn on. He is, after all,  a fucked up son of a bitch.
“Your cover’s blown then, Markelov.” Ugh, he was hoping he could somehow get around this bit. He doesn’t want to go back to Leningrad in disgrace, he knows what happens to failed spies. 
“That might not be a problem.” Sergey looks disbelieving and if he's perfectly honest, Artem has not actually worked out what his plan is here but - “They think I'm harmless, after all. They don't know who Sergey is, they don't know who you are - if they're looking at me, you're free to work.”
Kvyat considers it for a minute, staring at the clock like he's weighing time against Artem’s - or any of their - life. 
“OK, fine. But you're going to take out Lynn.”
Kvyat takes another gigantic gulp of his vodka, eyes once again closed, “And if we all get fired, if I'm not shot before you I swear I will do it myself and I will enjoy it.”
----
Artem heads back to Oxford and hopes no one is going to arrest him again. He spends a lot of time in Blackwell’s, browsing the Norrington room and pretending he thinks he’s going to learn something or bug something or generally do some minor espionage that might distract from the mysterious and probably quite unpleasant things he knows Sergey got sent off to do. 
He’s a little nervous, with Sergey in Vienna. Much as he and Sirotkin slightly hate each other, Sergey would never allow him to be captured whereas Kvyat might just leave him there or have him remote killed or something. Good to keep a low-ish profile for awhile.
He doesn’t hear from anyone - even the lovely codebreaker, sadly - and eventually he’s too bored to not get back to some actual spying, as well as pretending to spy. Which is, of course, when he runs into Lynn again. 
They’re in the JCR at St Catz, which is Artem’s least favourite of all the common rooms because the architecture makes him feel a bit faint and there’s something slightly weird about the beer but when one needs to find a mathematician one has to sometimes do distasteful things. At least it’s probably the least bourgie of the drinking holes. 
He’s just trying to work out what the off beer flavour reminds him of when someone clinks his glass, with considerably more aggression than is advisable for anything that gets used by students. 
“Well, what an incredible surprise to see you here… Schumacher, is it?” Lynn’s tone is dripping in contempt. 
“Not my preferred place - I was going to dinner at Brown’s.” When he’s not slapping Artem in the face, Lynn really is fantastically handsome, long eyelashes shading his cheeks as he looks scornfully down his nose.

2112's Rant Time #5 (Special Edition #2): A Double Feature of God/Timelord-like Proportions! (SPOILERS FOR GODZILLA: MINUS ONE AND DOCTOR WHO: WILD BLUE YONDER INBOUND!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh bloody 'ell it's review time! This is the 2nd of 3 special edition rant times where I'll be talking about how I feel about the anniversary specials of one of my hyper-fixations, Doctor Who! Today's rant/review, however, is especially special... as it's a DOUBLE FEATURE!
Yesterday the latest live action Godzilla movie, Godzilla: Minus One, released. I just got to watch it today (along side Wild Blue Yonder), so I decided to talk about both in one post. For the first half, I'll talk about Minus One. Then in the second half, Wild Blue Yonder. So let's get started, shall we?
GODZILLA: MINUS ONE
I'm not the biggest Godzilla fan, though I REALLY like to think that I am. I love the Legendary Pictures movies, and Shin Godzilla is literally in my top 5 movies of all time. So saying I was excited for Minus One is a bit of an understatement. So, what did I think of it?...
Tumblr media
I really liked it! Definitely the best Goji movie since Shin Godzilla (though the Legendary ones are "just about" as good). Goji's design in the movie is just perfect. It's the perfect modern Godzilla design. It takes aspects from past designs and adds some modern touches.
The human characters were actually pretty charming, especially Koichi. His story development throughout the movie was very engaging. I found myself more engaged with the human characters in this movie than most other Goji movies (even Shin Godzilla, which had the best human characters out of all of the modern (2014 onward) movies up until now).
The atomic breath in this movie is absolutely amazing. Instead of being a constant beam of atomic energy, it charges up (similarly to Shin Godzilla), which makes the dorsal plates raise out of Goji's body (which is a very nice touch). Afterwards a powerful, yet short lasting, beam is shot out of Godzilla's mouth. After the beam is shot, a LITERAL ATOMIC EXPLOSION is caused. It is ABSOLUTELY my favorite version of the atomic breath (though the Shin Godzilla one is an extremely close second).
So overall, Godzilla: Minus One is a fantastic take on The King of the Monsters, and is my personal favorite version of him. 9/10.
And now... it's time for...
WILD BLUE YONDER
Yea it's good. I'm not gonna tease y'all. It's damn good.
Tumblr media
And to be honest, I put all of my weekly review energy (which isn't a lot to begin with) into the Minus One section, so this section might be way shorter and unserious so here we gooooo.
First off, this episode takes place entirely on a big ol' spaceship. And right off the bat, I LOVE these types of episodes where it only (or at least mostly) takes place in just about one area. The main other 2 of these I can think of is The Unicorn and The Wasp, and Heaven Sent (my favorite episode of Doctor Who, which I will ABSOLUTELY do a Review Time™ of in the future (Review Time™ is what these specials rant times will become after December 9th)).
The episodes starts with the tardis crashing in the 1660's, right on top of the tree Sir Isaac Newton sat under when he came up with the theory of mavitation. The Doctor and Donna talk to the man, which then Donna says "You can appreciate the gravity of the situation". COMEDY GOLD BTW. Afterwards, they leave. Newton then ponders on the word he had just heard from the 2, which he remembers as Mavity. Mavity then becomes the episode's running joke. And GOD I hope this running jokes stay's it's so good.
The Tardis then crashes onto the previously mentioned big ol' alien spaceship, and usual DoctorDonna shenanigans ensue. Donna and The Doctor spot a robot they call jimbo. jimbo is lovely but moves slowly. Slow and steady wins the race, afterall. Lifeforms that can copy other lifeforms appear, and the chase is on (also giantess fetishists are gonna have a FIELD DAY with this episode).
Late on in the episode, The Doctor is talking to Fake Donna. They mention their home, Gallifrey. Which Fake Donna then says "nah mate that's wrong i read ur mind mate you dont bloody know where ur from mate." Then Fake Donna mentions the flux and suddenly all of the Chibnall haters turned into goo like Fake Donna did right after mention the flux (which was NOT undone btw. actually kinda happy about that).
The Doctor and REAL Donna then runaway, find out the captain of the ship did an unalive by going outside her ship without a helmet on to stop her mind from thinking permanently (causing the Copycat Lifeform things to be useless for 3 years), and then Fake Doctor runs on all fours very fast and ngl I want more of that please I WANT TO SEE MORE OF DAVID TENNANT RUNNING ON ALL FOURS PLSPLSPLSPLS-
Anyways, jimbo explodes the ship and The DoctorDonna manage to escape. Then all of a sudde- HOLY SHIT WILF CAMEO.
Tumblr media
oh and everyones killing each other or something idk the episode was fucking amazing
10 Wilfred Mott's Dancing out of 10.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Okay, okay. To be serious for a minute, the Bernard Cribbins cameo was very sweet. I did kinda hope we would see more in The Giggle, but RTD says that the scene we got in WBY will be the last we see of Wilf. Which is sad, but completely understandable.
Anyways, hope you enjoyed this double feature post! Probably not gonna do more double features anytime soon, because the usual posts take a while to type, and this took essentially double the time. But yea, see y'all next time for the FINAL of the 3 special edition rant times, where I'll be taking a look at The Giggle...
OH SHIT I FORGOT I BEAT LIKE A DRAGON GAIDEN AND I NEED TO TALK ABOUT IT!!!
(post about it will come tomorrow maybe.)

♡ Summary: Kim Seokjin is a popular cardiologist at Map of Seoul Hospital. Everyone looks up to him, especially a rookie named L/N Y/N.
♡ Pairing: Doctor! Seokjin! x Rookie Nurse! Y/N
♡ Rating: Explicit (18+) 
♡ Genre: Doctor Jin!, Nurse reader, Jin is a little turd, Y/N is cheerful and outgoing, love at first sight, fluff, romance, comedy, angst and smut 
I was eighteen when everything made sense for me. 
I was on a school trip and I was going around town with my friends. The spring just hit the city and the petals fell from the trees onto the busy streets. Writing in my notebook about the different sights was hard to do because there was no surface to write neatly. How was my teacher expecting nice work? I just tried my best to write it as neatly as I could. 
I saw a little shop that was selling little charms and I couldn’t stop myself. There was a cute cat that was holding a heart, they were all cute but one caught her eye. It was a hamster holding a heart that said LUCK in bold letters. She gently picked it up and the shopkeep smiled at me, “Interested?” 
“Yes...how much?”
The older lady shook her head and took the charm, “No worries. It’s free for you.”
I was confused and tilted my head at her, “Free? Why-”
“It can give you luck in the future with your job, education and more importantly love.”
“Love?” 
The lady nodded her head and handed me a special red velvet bag with gold symbols, “Good luck.”
I waved good-bye to her and walked away with a little smile on my face. Love. I have always wanted love ever since my mom told me about her love story with my dad. It just sounded so perfect and beautiful. Who wouldn’t want to fall in love with their soulmate? 
It was an empty street and it was pretty with the flowers covering the park cars. I put my hair in a low ponytail and continued to walk to the next place that was on the paper. I saw a light pink tissue on the street and I looked up to see an older woman with her bike. I picked up the tissue and ran towards her, “Excuse me, you dropped this.”
All of a sudden, she fell to the floor. I took off my sweater and placed it under her head. I looked around me and I saw an epipen. I picked it up and looked at her face to see it was swollen alongside her arm. She stared at the epipen and started to panic. She had never used an epipen, she’s only ever seen it on TV.
“Help!! Someone, help!!” 
“What’s happening!?”
She looked up and saw an older man making his way to her. His eyes were kind and his smile made her feel okay. He kneeled next to her and pushed some hair behind the older lady, “It’s going to be okay. Seokjin! I need your help!” 
She turned her head and her eyes widened when she saw a handsome man around her age. He glanced at her but didn’t say anything. She watched them help the lady but her eyes never left “Seokjin”. He was so handsome and he knew what he was doing. The older man turned to her and gave her a soft smile, “Call an ambulance okay. She’s going to be okay thanks to you.”
“Okay.”
I watched the older lady getting rolled behind the ambulance and I stared with nervousness. Just then I felt a hand on the top of my head and she looked up to see “Seokjin” smiling at me, “You did great.”
“Th-Thank you...my name is L/N Y/N.”
He ruffled my hair and started to walk to the ambulance but he looked back at me, “My name is Seokjin. We’ll take her to the Map of Seoul Hospital where I’m a residency at, she’s going to be okay.” 
I nodded my head and watched him enter the ambulance with the older man. She continued to watch until the ambulance was out of her sight. I figured out what I wanted to do with my life and it was all thanks to Seokjin. I wanted to be a nurse to support Seokjin. 
Y/N stared at the hospital with a smile on her face, it was actually happening. She spent five years working on becoming a nurse. The amount of tests she took and all the studying paid off for this moment. Her grip around her bag strap tightened and she nodded her head, “Let’s go..”

[Prev] [Next]
Tumblr media
Yoongi stood still, his legs shaking. It was not normal for him to be standing for this length of time. They were mermaids used to having tails their strength in the water. Swimming was like breathing. Of course their legs only appeared on their sacred land under the ocean.
They couldn’t walk on human land, could never compare to their leg strength. Most Mermaids spent their days in the water only entering the sacred land for celebrations. Yoongi being one of many guards would protect the royal family, albeit there was no longer a royal family. Jungkook was all that was left, a prince forced to be a king before he was ready. 
Guards were the most common of the merfolk to adorn legs. Jungkook was confined to the sacred land, his time in the water limited. Anything to keep him safe from the threat of other merclans. Each guard embellished in the silk of the clams. Byssus was woven finely like silk, the light material was surprisingly warm enough to protect the guards and King whilst in their more vulnerable form.
Yoongi looked across the crystal throne room, the love of his life standing just as tall, his stature stronger than Yoongi’s. A feat as Jungkook tore the room apart, bioluminescent vines and lanterns ripped from the walls. Food and wine splattered on the floor of their ancestors.
Hoseok’s mouth turned down, the sight unnatural for his usually cheerful disposition. The hardest part of their job was raising Jungkook, it seemed no matter how hard they tried to teach him right and wrong, politics and history they still came up short. He didn’t have a family, not anymore, he didn’t know how to share and never had to work for relationships. 
Everyone adored him, feared him, doted on his every whim. He was given the finest foods and all the newest technology Merfolk could offer. Anything to keep him content in his prison. It surprised Yoongi that Jungkook hadn’t questioned his confines, that he was complacent with their level of control over his freedom.
Jungkook no longer understanding, why his new found friend was so reluctant to stay. He extended all his riches and gifts to the human, something other merfolk would cherish. 
“Why does he still want to leave, with me he could be treated as a king,” Jungkook seethed, throwing a leg over the arm of his throne massaging his temples. “Leave me.”
Hoseok marched dutifully to Yoongi, supporting the older merman as they made their exit. Walking him to the entrance of the underwater cove, the air though damp enough to keep their lungs from feeling dry, they much preferred sinking into the cool water. Doing so allowed the power of the sacred land to slip away leaving only their natural form. 
The two transformed their black and blue tails wrapping around each other, a romantic gesture Yoongi enjoyed more than he wished to admit. They relaxed in eachothers arms peacefully, sinking further until they landed on the floor of the large network of caves. This is where most of the merfolk lived as they were still protected from the open ocean.
Under the cove was wide and besides a few stalagmite and stalactite the surface was predominantly flat. However the local life was anything but, everyone bustling around the settlement enjoying tending to the seaweed, crafting and protecting the sealife. 
“Jungkook, is struggling. He doesn’t understand how to handle rejection. He doesn’t understand that people value the same things,” Hoseok mumbled, massaging Yoongi’s lower back to help relieve tension from standing for such a long time.
“That human cannot survive long under the ocean, he grows weaker by the day, barely eating.” Yoongi huffed, “If Jungkook doesn’t let him go, the poor thing will die, Jungkook isn’t ready to experience something like that so close to him.”
“I think he has gotten too attached, losing this human might break him,” Hoseok bit his lip, “Dare I say he is in love with him, he could be his promised.”
Yoongi scoffed, the idea that Jungkook happened to find his promised one and he was a human, the first human he had ever met. Yoongi and Hoseok were unaware they were each other's promised until Yoongi had a week off from guard duty and started to get really sick. The two had met in the infirmary wasting away and only in one another's company did their condition improve. “Hoseok, that’s a bit much.”
A figure swam down the path quickly, heading straight to the sacred cove entrance, carrying something large. Was someone trying to attack their home? The two fell apart taking up offensive stances, each lurching forward when they spotted Jimin holding an unconscious human.
“Not another one,” Yoongi chastised, eyes sweeping over Jimin trying to be inconspicuous. Though he cared he showed it silently, not fond of open praise. The kind to listen and assist others out of sight.
“I have to make sure he is alright,” Jimin gave no further explanation, swimming up into the cove entrance dragging the human onto the sacred land. Jimin’s gold tail disappearing, leaving behind two bare legs. 
Wrapping himself in a cloth, the two followed. Yoongi strained to lift himself into an upright position. Hoseok brought out their usual transport, especially for Jungkook’s deliveries. In this case they threw the unconscious human across the shell of the crustacean and they headed to their king.
“Are all humans this big?” Yoongi asked, eyeing the figure draped beside Jimin. The two crab-pooling wasn’t the issue, the way Jimin looked genuinely concerned for the human was. It was no good for humans and Merfolk to fall in love, the dynamic wouldn’t end well. 
“No, they aren’t all this big, some of them are small, delicate and beautiful. They are magnificent, fascinating beings. Some are scary and mean and others are innocent and protective, just trying to do the right thing.” Jimin whispered, checking the humans breathing once more. 
“Is he your promised?” Hoseok asked softly, not knowing how to approach the topic sensitively. Jimin smiled, shaking his head. The thought appeared to have amused him.
“He is someone else’s promised,” Jimin said, “But I think I met her, she was beautiful and strong, never letting anyone stop her, never letting bad things keep her down. She would swim head first into enemy waters to save someone she barely knows.
The human groaned, “Where am I?” Jimin let out a sigh of relief, this human was waking up and didn’t seem to be physically hurt, at least there were no wounds they could see upon his flesh. “Am I dead?”
“No, you are not dead, you are in our settlement.” Jimin grinned at the disorientation present in Seokjin’s words. He was struggling to enunciate his words, each more like a whine drawn out.
Upon entering the crystal throne room the group tried their best to support the sluggish human inside. Gaining the attention of Jungkook, ceasing his brooding long enough to assist the three struggling mermen. As if hearing the commotion or perhaps Seokjin’s terrible jokes Namjoon emerged from where he had been staying.
“Jin! Are you okay?” Namjoon grabbed his friend, checking him over for injury, “What are you doing here?”
“Rescuing you and avoiding the police, I ran my car off the cliff and also may have destroyed the letter box outside your beach house.” He laughed, “Never really liked it anyway.”
“You did what?” Namjoon said, concerned, “Are you crazy?”
“Listen, we were being chased. It was all for you, and Jimin of course, returning Jimin and rescuing you.” Seokjin smiled at his friend. Yoongi thought these humans were weird, they were reckless and too odd for his liking. “I even teamed up with Taehyung and Y/n in order to save you. Do you know how hard that was?”
“Didn’t seem hard at all, you and Taehyung seemed to get along really well.” Jimin pushed the human with a smile, it was weird to see Jimin acting so comfortable with the humans. “We will return you so that the issue can be resolved, I am starting to grow worried about how we left.”
“What do you mean?” Seokjin asked confused
“Humans tackled Y/n and Taehyung dragged me into the water. Right before you and your car contraption fell into the water I killed the man who scared you all.” Jimin said proudly, this didn’t seem to go over well with the human’s. Yoongi hoped Jimin didn’t do something stupid turf war wasn’t on his to do list.
Yoongi didn’t understand the words coming from Seokjin’s face, if he had to liken it to anything, it sounded like vulgar slang, curse words. The human looked panicked.
“We have to go back, they are probably being sent to prison,” Seokjin said, trying to leave unsure which direction to go, “They are in big trouble.”
“Can’t you just talk to your king and explain and they will be removed from prison?” Jimin said
“Prison doesn’t work the same as it does here,” Namjoon explained, “Very Very bad people go to prison, Murderer’s, thieves and other despicable humans put in one place.”
“Yeah and if they go to prison, they may be beaten or worse,” Seokjin huffed. Jimin looked up at Jungkook who nodded, bringing out a small mirror and handing it to Jimin.
Looking over Jimin’s shoulder, Yoongi noticed a human different to the two infront of him, she was feminine delicate and leaking. “What is happening to her?”
“She is crying,” Jimin explained, “Humans do that when they are hurt or in despair, from what I have been told they do the same when they are happy too.”
“Confusing and a little stupid.” Hoseok laughed, “How do you know the difference?”
The charges have been dropped, Namjoon breathed listening to the interrogator, explaining that they couldn’t record the phenomenon that occurred on the beach. “They are being let go,” He smiled, a sight Yoongi hadn’t seen since he first laid eyes on their large domestic crustaceans.
“There is Taehyung,” Seokjin called out looking down, the two humans looked void of any emotion, they collected their things and climbed into the police car getting an escort to their homes. “They are safe and that’s all that matters.” 
Seokjin smiled, his eyes leaking much to Yoongi’s disgust. Namjoon smiled, he seemed a little amused by the older human. “I remember distinctly you saying you hated Taehyung with a passion and wanted him to choke on a sardine.” They two laughed for a moment, “When did things change?” 
“I guess when you are working as a team to save someone you develop an understanding.” Seokjin shrugged his large shoulders, “It also didn’t help that he was living in my house for almost a week.”
“You like him,” Namjoon poked him, “Admit it you have feelings for him.”
“We can head back when you are ready, we have returned Jimin home safely.” Seokjin smiled, looking around at the group and smiling, “I am Seokjin by the way, you can call me Jin.”
The man was goofy, reminding Yoongi of Jungkook himself, the two so alike in their childlike nature, letting themself play without hesitation. It was almost admirable that people could act so carefree, unaffected by how they could be perceived.
“I don’t know if I am allowed to leave?” Namjoon said, his smile falling, eyes fixed on the ground before him. 
Yoongi looked at his king, the spoiled young man reflecting on his actions, it had been many days since they saw the young man smile. Almost expecting him to refuse, Yoongi schools his expression when he doesn’t. 
“You should go, You don’t belong down here?” Jungkook took the mirror before walking away from the group to sit on the throne. He lowered his head looking at his reflection trying to distract himself from the pain. Letting your promised go was the hardest thing a merperson could do. Under normal circumstances, promises are only parted by death.
Namjoon walked over, placing a hand on the king's head and smiling at him, “If ever you want to visit, I would be happy to show you some great places, places you would love.” Jungkook’s broken heart warmed at the human’s dimples appearing softly in the flesh of his cheeks.
That was the last thing they needed, their king running off for a romance on the coast line. Seokjin swung his arm around Jimin playfully, the merman giggling whilst his legs almost buckled. “Yeah Jimin knows the private beach by Namjoon’s house, he can show you the way if you ever want to visit.”

Village of the Angels Rewatch Thoughts
This was a lot longer but I took out a lot of the parts where I was just quoting lines/describing moments and repeating how much I love and am obsessed with them 
Okay usually I don’t like when we start off spending like five minutes away from the Doctor and/or companions, especially in this era because I feel like it happens way too much and for way too long, but I love that beginning part with Jericho and Claire a lot. Although I wasn’t a massive fan when watching it live lmao
‘You’ve had that coat a while, then.’ This whole ep is comedy gold while still being scary/serious at moments (much like Villa Diodati) and I’m obsessed with it. Maxine Alderton come back for every ep I beg
Didn’t expect to give a fuck about Jericho but I actually love him and I’m glad he’s back in the next ep
Idk what I was expecting to see in the mirror when it panned up but fuckin Weeping Angel wings was not it and it looks so cool
Yaz once again tryna be all police-y and the people around her not giving a fuck lol. Except this time it’s just an asshole man from the 60s and not an evil alien
I know it’s a thing people have been saying, about how the Doctor has basically spent no time with Yaz or Dan so far this season, and I know that a lot of it has been because of things the Doctor couldn’t control, but also I feel like even if she did have control, she would still probably be tryna distance herself like in this ep she leaves Dan and Yaz to their devices without a second thought, because the more time she’s with them the more she has to put on her persona of fineness and deal with questions from Yaz and stuff like that
Quite liked the Bel moments in this ep and especially liked that they didn’t go on forever
When the ep aired I was like idk the order or Claire and the Doctor meeting so imma just assume it makes sense but now that I’m actually able to pay proper attention, what I’m getting is that Claire had one of her premonitions where she saw the TARDIS, the Doctor, the street Dan lives on(?), and some other stuff. And that is why she turned up on the street where Yaz and 13 were and how she recognized them. And then the Angel got her and sent her to this village. Right? So the Doctor and her have met in the same order and their meeting on Dan’s street was their first time meeting each other, it’s just that Claire knew who the Doctor was in that first ep because of her premonition beforehand
You’re telling me while Peggy was taking Yaz and Dan to where the village ends or whatever, they had to get right up close to it to notice lmao don’t think so
The fire angel is so cool!!!
‘Brilliant, made it worse.’ 
Asking for permission to enter Claire’s mind is my favourite thing ever. You just know it’s because of everything she’s found out about her past. One of the moments where I think you can really tell that Chib has put a lot of thought into how the things in his era play out and almost everything has a meaning
I was worried the Weeping Angels using Claire and Jericho to talk rather than just kinda being ominous presences would make them less scary but it literally doesn’t at all. If anything I feel like it made them scarier. And I know Angel Bob spoke in Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone and that was spooky too but it was played more for laughs as far as I can remember. This is like, actually supposed to scare you. And it works pretty well imo
Why is Azure collecting people in the Passenger? Like.. for fun? Should we understand what she’s doing this for or am I right to not fully understand yet idk I also just didn't really pay attention to when Bel was explaining it to Inbetweeners guy so that’s my bad lol
‘Enough questions Dan.’ Yaz, your Doctor is showing
Getting got by an Angel a second time killing you is actually so cool. I looove the extra stuff Chib added to the Angel lore in this episode. 
‘But we are patient. We have time.’ is a great line.
The Doctor’s need to save humans and her desperation for info on her past is really fucking with her judgement huh. Trusting an Angel was always gonna be a bad idea
Everything about the tunnel scene is so fuckin good. Just the right amount of spooky
Something about the Angels not going for Thirteen and just staying stood there instead is so much scarier than them doing their usual move when you blink thing. SO COOL
I’ve seen a lot of people say that they don’t like that Thirteen has no control over anything that happens to her right now, and like, obviously it’s fine to not like that but that’s just... part of the story?? Idk how to explain it. LIke, this isn’t some ‘Chib is so bad at writing’ situation, you not like a story doesn’t mean it’s objectively terrible and Chib is shit at his job
The Doctor’s face when she realizes that they used her love of humans against her!!!!!
I don’t notice music much in this era but when Claire says ‘You are recalled to Division’ damn bro
The Doctor turning into an Angel is probably the coolest shot in the whole of Doctor Who I stg. Her face??? The wings coming out of her back???? I could cry actually
I knew there was something wrong with the theme at the end of the ep but I didn’t realise it was the heart beats missing bc the doctor is made of stone SO COOL!!
Okay even tho I’m a lil meh on the inclusion of Bel and Vinder right now, I am actually looking forward to them (presumably) finding each other at some point in ep 5 or 6. And I’m assuming they’re gonna have more of a purpose than a random love story, we just don’t know what it is yet. So I’m excited to find out who they are
Not ashamed to say I teared up when I saw Kate Stewart in the next time trailer. And then I had to rewatch it because the second I saw her, I stopped paying attention lmao
The vibe Maxine brings to her episodes is my favourite thing ever and you can really tell that she was involved in this ep, much like with Villa Diodati. I generally don’t care too much that Chib’s writing is a bit shitter than previous eras, because it’s not constantly bad and I love basically everything else about this era, but damn getting a writer like Maxine in on an ep really maks you feel the difference huh. 
I think this might be my second fave Thirteenth Doctor episode. And maybe also my second fave DW episode of all time

Top five (or ten if you want) Scorpio, Espio and Charmy moments!! i want to know more about these guys :)
Scorpio, we gathered once we stopped laughing about it (briefly. Very briefly. To be honest we're still laughing), is Vector's evil twin who lives in a parallel universe and is played by Tom Hardy. Just so that all the people reading this post can be on the same page as us.
Ashsjskfhjfhjfh I love you. Never change.
Ask me my top 5 anything
So...Chaotix time, uh? Let's see.
1) Zombot Arc (IDW comics)
An easy guess, if you know me at all. Watching these poor sods lose Charmy to a virus, find him for the briefest time and then get torn apart again, only for Espio to have to fight his zombified family until the very end...It was a blow to the stomach after the other, and yet it really gave the reader a sense of how tied they are to each other. Espio especially got a focus that he isn't often on the receiving end of, which was very nice to see.
And now, for the panel that irreversibly broke me:
Tumblr media
2) The case of the Pirate Princess (Sonic Universe)
Genre-mashing at its finest. Three detectives (who are also idiots) are tasked with rescuing a princess (who technically doesn't want to be rescued) from a bunch of pirates (who are actually better at this found family thing than most) and accidentally find a lost treasure in the process. The treasure, by the way, isn't worth squat. And they don't even get paid well. But hey, at least they made new friends!
I dunno, this arc is just so very sweet. They bicker all the fucking time, but in a very peculiar, believable way that most siblings will know at first glance. Plus, they let Charmy be an actual kid in this, and you KNOW I'm a kidfic fan first and a human being second. He asks Espio for spelling help! He makes friends with everyone! He wants reassurances from Vector that he can still be a detective! The entire story ends with them using what little money they got to buy him something! I love them so much!!!!!!
In short: perfect dumbasses, all of them.
3) Hedgehog Hunt (Sonic X)
They're running a cafe in space. Child labor laws apparently don't exist there so Charmy is involved too. Espio refuses service to Doctor Eggman in multiple annoying ways. Vector plays the piano and becomes oddly reminiscent of Morgan when he was playing for Achille Lauro, and THEN goes to buy spaceship parts in a space mall because Sonic and friends are going incognito.
I don't know, man, I don't have an explanation for any of this. It's amazing to see, though.
4) Galactic Gumshoes (Sonic X)
You know when you are assigned a task, set out to complete that task, mix it up with something else and end up completely unrelated shit? This is exactly what happens to them in this episode. They're sent to deliver some clothes and while they're at it they try to kidnap two children. As one does.
It's just so quintessentially them, though. Charmy literally mocks Vector while the guy (who is, lest we forget, his boss and father figure) gets beaten ON HIS OWN SHIP! Espio is so done with everything and the narrative always forgets him! Sonic X was wild, guys, I'm so glad I rewatched it in quarantine.
5) Penders era Archie comics as a whole
Listen. These comics weren't good. In fact, they were ugly as sin and with awful storylines. But they were so atrocious that they accidentally become comedy gold, and I can't NOT mention them.
Charmy was a teenage prince with a betrothed, and his friend overdosed on Lemon Sundrop Dandelion (yes, you're reading the beginning letters correctly). Vector was a misogynist. Espio in the future had a Littlefinger goatee and two daughters whose only purpose was to snog the local bad boy. They don't actually do anything useful beside harassing Knuckles' girlfriend and occasionally eating fast food meals. If I were to make this stuff up no one would believe me, and yet Ken Penders kept a straight face and put it in actual, physical comics.
Dark times for the Chaotix then, folks. Dark times.

Things that Spark Joy-3x10
WHAT. AN. EPISODE! There was so much in this that sparked joy, I don’t even know where to begin! This was the first time in a long time I felt like I was watching the show I fell in love with. Everything was SO GOOD and lived up to the potential the rest of the season had, but couldn't quite deliver on because it was too busy sacrificing things on the alter to m*ria. That’s been part of my frustration all season because the potential for a really, really good season was there, but there wasn’t enough time to show us all the things they should have because the episodes and characters were stopping everything to else to prop up m*ria, to the detriment of everything else. But this episode gave us a glimpse of what the show could be like without her and it was glorious. The plot was tight, the characters were focused in the right places and on people in a way that made sense, we got to see the important moments instead of hearing about them after the fact, and we even got some answers to questions I didn’t think we’d ever find out about! As always, the “salt” post is here, but for now lets dive in to the good stuff!
Starting with baby Heath and Dallas was a great choice, as was giving us the flashback of them as grownups because it really cemented that lifelong friendship and made me care about them. I’m already 100% more invested in Heath after this episode than I was after all his previous appearances. I was totally prepared for Evil!Heath, but I’m actually loving this turn of events because yeah, evil guy playing Liz could have been good, but good guy using Liz and working with an evil man because he’s trying to save his friend? So compelling. It’s harder for our heroes to fight someone who is only trying to save his friend. I’m so invested in this story now!
And Dallas. OMG, Dallas. I already love him SO MUCH. He’s gorgeous and witty and sweet and also so alone and needs a family and I want him to stay forever. Getting to see him meet and have that moment with his dad was great and we got some important plot information out of the whole thing as well. His scenes with Michael were SO good, and I totally called that they wouldn’t get on at first, but because of their similar childhoods they would eventually bond and it was so great seeing it play out on screen. Michael being willing to open up to Dallas because he knows he has support in Isobel and Alex if he’s struggling shows such growth for him and I’m loving it. We also got to see him with Isobel again which was fun. and her trying to ease into the alien reveal and then saying “screw it” and making that cute smiley face was just SO Isobel. And does he have water powers?! Because I would like to see that. AND we got Dallas with Kyle which was unexpected and adds another layer to the story because I feel like we are going to get a point where Dallas is close to making that choice and has to get talked down. But also, Kyle is NOT a receptacle for everyone’s secrets just because he’s a doctor! This is a blatant abuse of “doctor/patient confidentiality”. Let the man rest. 
We also got to hear telepathic Isobel and Michael which was fun and I don’t think we’ve gotten that before. Lily and Vlamis have a great dynamic and it was good to get to see more of that, plus we got them with Jeanine as well which is super fun. I definitely need more scenes with those three! Their banter was fun, and Isobel getting knocked back off that bench was comedy gold.
Speaking of Lily and her having chemistry with everyone, despite my issues with the whole Max thing, I think Anatsa and Isobel were cute and the archery scene was delightful. (Sidebar, when is Sibongile going to be in some kind medieval/fantasy movie as a warrior because I would watch TF out of her being an absolute badass.)
BUT, alas for Anatsa, the Kybel content this episode was *chef’s kiss*. The hug and delight on both of their faces when Isobel shows up? The way Kyle closes his eyes and nuzzles in a bit when she doesn’t pull away right away? Kyle getting riled up on Isobel’s behalf and burning the files rather than turning them over to the sheriff?! “You have ICE powers now?!”, telling her he was sorry for making her doubt herself? “I didn’t want you to fail and because of that we both did”, his sad little face when he sees her going over to Anatsa?! I am HERE for the slowburn Kybel *grabby hands*
Speaking of Kyle Valenti, my beloved, let’s talk about him being a BAMF and again risking himself and his job to keep the alien secret safe. AND he got attacked by Jones and recognized Heath from his attack. Kyle is the best of all of them and I love him so much, but dear god let the man rest aND NO, WRITERS, BEING IN A COMA WHERE NONE OF HIS FRIENDS TALK ABOUT OR TRY TO SAVE HIM DOESN’T COUNT. anyway. Kyle blatantly breaking the vials Heath needed and setting the files on Isobel and Max on fire that the sheriff wanted to see have the same energy and I just think Kyle deserves to be kissed on the mouth for being so dedicated. 
Liz. Ortecho. It was so good seeing her take charge this episode!  We got to see her with Michael and Iz which is always fun, but we also got more of her with Max, breaking and entering again (she barely has to duck to get under his arm! 🥺🥺🥺), AND an interrupted kiss, we got her emotional scene with Heath trying to talk him around to their side, and then an actual kiss BUT IT WAS JONES!! The scene with her and Jones and Heath and the sheriff was great. I just love Jeanine so much and she was given so much to work with in this episode. And she’s now got her hands in the Jones thing, the Heath thing that connects to the Dallas thing (excited to see those things connecting soon!), and the Dallas thing connects to the Lockhart Machine which connects to the formula she’s looking for and oooooooh, it is all coming together! Liz being the lead means she should be tied to all the threads in some way and it’s nice to see that finally starting to take place.
The sheriff tasing Max and handcuffing him to a railing actually made me laugh, like, she’s a little confused but she’s got the spirit!
We finally got an answer on HOW Heath knew to find those tapes out in the desert behind Max’s house! The timeline on Kyle’s attack is still wonky and also means Eduardo walked over an unconscious m*ria’s body to drag Kyle to safety which is hilarious to me, but that one piece of the puzzle on why any of them were even there was what bothered me the most so it was nice to see that have an explanation finally. 
I really want to like Max, and he’s always at his best when he’s making heart eyes at Science!Liz, or helping her break into places with mild reluctance, but we all know he would follow her anywhere. So this episode delivered some good, soft Echo content as well, and it included Max telling Liz to take her time because he knows where he stands and isn’t wavering. It’s nice to see Echo working their way back to each other and being cute together.
MALEX STANS, HOW WE DOING?! NGL I am feeling VERY vindicated right now in writing that over the top fluffy Malex fic because apparently it was spot fucking on. Every single thing about them is so delightful! I love how soft they are, which we all knew they SHOULD be, but it was definitely a concern that the writers would not understand this. But we are getting soft, heart eyes, nerdy boyfriends, who are so much in love it’s visible from The Oasis and I LOVE it so much! We are getting to see parallels to other arguments they’ve had to show how they have grown and are able communicate and it’s beautiful to watch. As much as I might have complained about them stalling the build up and throwing it all into one episode, this domestic Malex is exactly what I imagined for them after they got together so I have no complaints. Give me ALL of the soft, supportive boyfriends! I don’t even know that I can put into words everything that Soft!Malex makes me feel but I am fully on board and absolutely adoring what we are seeing for them. Hopefully this Malex energy continues and we can see them standing back to back, taking things on together and supporting each other!

Tumblr media
Twenty-six. 
That was the age when your parents started to pressure you to have a decent life. According to them, one can call their life as a decent one, if they are married, but they were also okay with a short time engagement. And when you hit the age of twenty-six, they start to bother you, bombard you with their wills to be grandma and grandpa. 
Your mother's daring character even leads herself to offer you some pictures of the men she knows somehow. Lawyers, doctors, and of course the future CEOs of the very important companies. 
At the age of twenty-six, you thought they were going crazy or trying to make you go crazy. Of course, you vetoed every man she offered you, even though your mom can be very, very persistent, you handled the situation well. Avoiding them until they get sick of your stubborn attitudes, and they stop keeping their hopes high. Well, your little sister's marriage had helped you with the issue, but either because of this and that, they stopped forcing you. 
Even though your parents find it highly pathetic, you finally enjoyed winning the constant fight that was going on for years with them. In your single-roomed apartment, all by yourself, and no one there to heat your cold feet in the coldest days of winter. 
And at the age of thirty-two, you start to think a lot. Overworking, and overthinking yourself with the black space in your chest. 
The freedom you loved so much led you to stay single, one night stands, and the dates you go to a couple of times aside. Most days, it didn't bother you that much. Being alone and being all alone forever. Seriously, it didn't bother that much. Until you find yourself in the loop where you watch only romantic comedies, paying a great deal of money for the napkins, as you find yourself crying until your throat goes sore. 
That's how you found yourself dialing your sister's number, mumbling some bullshit over the phone. Throat sore, eyes puffy and red from all the crying, words falling from your lips, and Eunji finds it too hard to understand what you were talking about. She puts you on speaker, calls for her lovely husband he loves so much, and hoping Hoseok could understand what was going on with you. 
''... not wantin' that. Don' want to die alone,'' freshly married couple only manage to pull these words from your mouth, and couldn't clarify the thing you babbled. 
Does it sound completely pathetic? Well, if you have the authority, you can always blame the cherry martini. And if you have to be honest, despite you don't want to, it was more like lots of gin side with cherries. 
According to what you say to them-- you, of course, couldn't remember what you said. And how much they told your parents, you at the age of thirty-two found yourself in a first meeting. With the man you'll be married.
Arranged marriages weren't your thing, but seeing your friends getting married one by one, having children, and happily married in front of you, basically forced you for doing this. Thirty-two years old so-called modern advertiser gets sick of the loneliness she had and agrees to an arranged marriage. And this is no other person than you.  
When Eunji and Hoseok come to visit you and giving you the big news with a wide grin, you didn't think that they would find someone so quickly, but as the rumor says--rumor was no other than your sister--, the very charming neurosurgeon who is only thirty-five couldn't find himself a decent woman to marry. Not to your surprise, your parents get so hyped up with the news, and to your luck, the man--soon after you learn that his name was Yoongi. Min Yoongi-- happened to be the very best friends of Hoseok. 
Without wasting any more time, your parents meet with each other on the phone, both women burning with the desire for a grandchild, even though they already have. And the fathers, talking formally with each other, and saying how being single after the thirties is dangerous for one's career. Deciding the time and place for both of you two meet, and even your parents decide what you should wear. 
It all feels like you are the head actress in a movie, where your parents forced you to marry the rich man for your family's debt. In all reality, there was no debt or force. Maybe there is a little force, but in the end, you wanted them to find someone for you. When you keep thinking about it, guilt starts to creep towards your chest. Questions with unknown answers fill your mind. 
What if the man turns out as a psychopath? What if he has some weird kinks that you can't handle? The more you think everything scares the shit out of you. You cover your face with your palms, you groan while your head falls on the table. How could you be this stupid to agree on what your parents always wanted? Arranged marriage? What time is this? The late seventies? 
In the internet age, you really did agree on meeting with the man you probably were going to marry in a small coffee shop that your parents chose, wearing a blue dress that also your parents picked. 
Is it too late to go back? What if you leave before he gets here? Probably he doesn't know how you look--as you had no idea about his face or body image. A huge knot sits on your throat, making it hard to swallow your regrets. Not that you were giving lots of crap about someone's look, but what if he is not your type? Is it okay to leave after ten minutes of talk? What if--
''Ih-hım,'' before another ball of questions jerk into your mind, a fruity voice cuts you, ''L/N Y/N?'' while you taking your hands from your face and lifting your head from the table, the comforting fresh odor fills your nostrils even before you see the man. ''Y--yes,'' 
Between in your slight nods, twinkling your eyelashes while staring at the man in front of you. Thick blonde haired-man eyeing you above, a light smile hangs on his face, square glasses stand under the button nose. Contrary to your dismay, he is looking good. His smile gets wide, hangs his hand in the air, ''I'm Min Yoongi. It's nice to meet you,'' 
It takes a couple of minutes before you realize that you should greet him the way he did. Even though you try hard not to act like an idiot, you are flummoxed by his sudden appearance. The voice of the chair tumbling to the floor echoes in the shop, causing all the heads to turn towards you when you clumsily get up. ''Oh, I'm so.. sorry,'' you jabbered after your head bumps to the man's when both of you try to fix the chair. 
''I'm really sorry,'' you utter in agony and guilt. Probably you look like an idiot, rather than only feeling like it. He smiles and waves his hand like it's nothing after adjusting your chair. ''I'm not going to suffer from it, don't worry,'' he chuckles, eyes staring deeply. Even though he isn't much taller than you, his soft but scanning glares made you feel smaller. He put his hand in his pocket, flexing his shoulders while standing inches away from you. Before your mind works properly and offers him to sit, you keep watching his sight. Eyes wander, settles on the others without landing on you, glancing up to the ceiling. 
''Oh my--Please take a seat,'' you plead, gesturing the chair across from the table. His brows raise with your high pitched voice, but the soft smile takes its place without wasting time. He nods, taking his seat in front of you. The reason why you act like this is both caused by how attractive he is, and how nervous you are. Either way, you feel dump while sitting across from him. 
After you take your place, long silence arises between you two. So, you take the advance from this silence by scanning him. From head to toe. 
He is wearing a dark blue sweater, a black coat on top of it, with black pants. The only colorful thing was his blonde hair, and it surprises how he looks so good with it. One glance and anyone could understand how important he is and the job he does. He is intimidating, contrary to his small smile on the corner of his lips. When your stare meets with him, you understand that he is scanning you the same way you do. Were you looking good? Does the dress look stupid in this weather? Despite his coat and sweater, you were wearing a blue thin dress with black spots. You wonder if the cut on the dress is too low or not. Not that you can do anything about it. 
''So, you are a doctor?'' his eyebrows rise with your statement. It was stupid of you, but the bizarre silence only causes you to grow more anxious. Yoongi places his hands on the table, holding his laugh on the back of his throat. He feels how anxious you are, and he enjoys how your expression changes when you think you said something stupid. He finds it cute. He nods and smiles while your face goes pink. ''Neurosurgeon, yes.'' 
''Cool,'' blinking your lashes, you start to nod in small. You didn't know if he is interested in you or the opposite, so you didn't want to make, or say something weird and scare him away. So, when the waiter came and took your orders, you thanked him mentally. Because you were at the edge of asking how much money he makes, and looking like a total gold digger. Aish... why can't you act like a normal woman for a minute? 
''And you?'' the husky voice of the semi-stranger made your heart flinch and gathered all of your attention to himself. You tilt your head and he sees your glazed face. ''What you do for a living?'' he asks one more time. Rather than finding you oddly idiot, he likes the way your cheeks go pink. ''Ah. Work. You mean... my job,'' he nods, the smile bigger now. ''I-I'm working for an advertisement company... yes,'' normally you would find your job highly amusing and cool, but with him, you feel small. Like the job you have was nothing, as he touches brains every day. Oh... you feel like an idiot. A real idiot. 
''Oh. That's cool,'' he smiles, nodding his head the same way you did. And he enjoys the way your cheeks blushes after his little tease. 
And you couldn't understand why he was acting so... kind. Contrary to all the things you did, which they were very stupid, he didn't mind them. Rather, he looked like he enjoyed them, and this literally made you feel uneasy. It was strange. Yes... strange. 
''Really?'' you tilt your brow, ''You think that's cool? Or, are you trying to insult me?'' his eyes went round, blinking them a couple of times. 
''Did I sound like that?'' he lifts his hands up, fixing his posture to emphasize and look sincere to you. ''I didn't mean to sound like that. I'm sorry and of course, I am not trying to insult you nor the job you do.'' you nod, expecting his apology. It was your time to enjoy the way he looks dumbfounded. 
''Iced americano,'' when the waiter comes with your orders, you hear him release a long breath under his breath. The way he takes a sip from his cup, and not knowing where to look kinda warms your heart, and you feel bad for mocking him, but still, you were having fun with this. 
After a couple of minutes of silence, you decide it wasn't fun to mock with him. Instead, it killed the mood and now Yoongi wasn't talking, probably too scared to talk with a psycho like you as you just accused him something he didn't do like some hebete. And the way you found it funny, left its place to regret while you were playing with your mug, chewing inside of your mouth in guilt. 
''H-how did you met with... Hoseok?'' yes, you know it is a lame question to ask but the stupid awkwardness was eating you alive, and you want it come to an end.  
''College,'' he pressed his lips together, eyes carefully sizes you up as he doesn't want to say something to offend you. And you were sure that was going to be the last thing he said, and probably leave after drinking his coffee in rush. But he surprises you with the sudden giggle. ''In the first year of college, we decided to go to a Carnival and I still don't know why we decided to do it. But in the roller coaster, suddenly someone held my hand and never left it until it stopped--''
''Oh my... don't tell me it was Hoseok!'' you jerk your hand to your lips, very amused by the new information he gives. 
''Jackpot.'' he doesn't even try to hold his smile back, nodding his head cutely. ''I had to take care of him for the rest of the night. Because he was so frightened and needed someone.'' both of you start to laugh with the memory of him. Even though you would never think Hoseok would do that, somehow you could imagine him doing that. Somehow that suits him well. 
''Yoongi, you gave me the best card ever against him.'' you chuckled, wiping the tears from your eyelids. ''He will feel remorse over setting this meeting,'' your stomach starts to ache a little from the laugh you share with him. And you were glad that he didn't let go of this date and made you laugh like this. 
Yoongi waved his hand while leaning to take a sip from his cup, ''He will probably kill me for telling you this.'' the corners of his mouth turned up before he talked again. ''You should protect me from him as I share this with you.'' you exchange looks with him. The playfulness of him surprised you and how he changed the mood so smoothly. 
You nod with a smile on the corner of your lips, staring at his eyes. ''Of course. I will.'' 
Tumblr media
After exchanging the memory of your mutual friend, the bleak mood left its place to a warmer one. There were a couple of good jokes, more questions to get to know each other better, and you almost forgot that this was the arranged date and you had so much fun rather than you assume. With the timid glances, leaning each other to hear better, and the way you two get closer in time felt like a real date. Not a date your parents arranged. 
Now you know about his love for music, and one could never doubt his passion for it. The way he talks about it causes your heart to hum, seeing how his eyes go all shiny while showing you his carefully made it playlist warmed your chest, you can't lie. Seeing someone getting this enthusiastic about the thing he loves brought the memories of how you liked to paint at one time. Getting all dirty while trying to achieve your goals, nose went numb because of the smell. You loved it. 
Somehow, the blonde man finds his way to your heart, and you had no objections to this. 
''Okay, tell me yes,'' you tear yourself off from the memories, and adjust your focus on him. Hands up in the air, eyes gleaming in anticipation. 
''I will,'' you said in a curious tone, seeing the corners of his mouth turning up, ''If, I know the reason,'' 
You giggle the way his eyes going round, he looks like you betrayed him. A thing about him always finds its way to make you feel relaxed around him, and it was like you knew him for more than three hours. ''After all the things we share, all the laughter and all these minutes. I thought you would say 'yes', but I guess I'm a fool,'' 
''Uh, if you are going to be this dramatic, then yes. For what is in your mind,'' you can't ignore the gasp that escaped his mouth, hand wraps his heart, shushing to fix the broken pieces of it. ''We were thinking about treating her with the best chicken wings in the country, but she decides to act rude. Every cloud has a silver lining, huh?'' he pouts, faking an attitude. 
''Oh. Pardon me and my bad mouth.'' you decide to continue the game he started. ''From now on, I won't have a second doubt about saying 'yes'. Promise.'' his mouth curved into a smile after you lifted your pinky finger in the air, and without wasting time, he wraps his around yours. 
''And tell me more about those chickens,'' you say, stealing a laugh from his chest. 
Tumblr media
''Oh my--god.'' your hiccup interrupts you while laying yourself on the back of the booth. You lick the sweet chilly from your finger, having a food baby in your stomach never felt this good. It was the best chicken you ever eat, and you almost started to cry after tasting it the first time. The sweet chili sauce and the crispy cover on the chicken wings just blew your mind and took your mouth with it. If you could, you would eat a dozen of them. 
''Right!'' Yoongi voices with pleasure, takes another bite to fill his mouth, ''This brings heaven to your mouth. No less.'' your laugh cuts in the middle as a cramp finds its way to your stomach. You really ate too much. 
''You were right, but I guess I'm going to faint.'' opening the little packet, you start to clean your fingers with the wet wipe, the sharp smell immediately fills your nostrils. You did enjoy every bite, it wasn't a lie. But you could feel the heaviness on your stomach from all the eating and the drinking. You were over thirty and there was no point worrying about eating too much or drinking beer on the first date. 
To be honest, you would worry about this if the date was not with him. But with him, with Yoongi you don't feel the need for acting differently. You like the way you can do whatever you want to do. 
''What about another round?'' his eyes gleamed with a mischievous hint. It was triggering the ache in your stomach, and as every sensible human being, you should say no. But the sweet taste lingers on your teeth, numbs your tongue with its savor. 
''You are inviting me to sin.'' you wipe the corner of your mouth while trying to lean towards him, but the body feels like a ton. Despite the ache and the handicap on your way to breath, you reveal a big grin. How could you say no while he looks at you with those bright browns? You couldn't. ''And I'm happy to participate in this. Course you need to pay for my hospital expenses,'' 
He lets out a choked, husky laugh. Holding his stomach while serving you the best gummy smile, and looks deep into your eyes after adjusting his posture. ''Believe me,'' the way he licks his bottom lips just does something to you. Levitates your stomach, sticks your breath on your throat. If someone would ask you, you would gladly accept to watch him sit in front of you. That's something you are sure about. ''You won't regret eating too much of this. No one can.'' 
He holds his hand up after tearing his eyes from you, calling the waitress for the second round. A grin stuck on his lips, you stupidly believe him. You would believe if he said he is the president of the world, and that was stupid. But you didn't mind, as your heart never filled with this much joy for so long. 
With a wiggle in your stomach, you feel heavy on the heart. Overwhelmed by his actions, the way he affects you. The way he has the cutest, heartwarming smile made you angry as he had no right to look like this. With the blonde hair, smart-looking glasses, and the round button nose that you just wanted to boop your finger. 
It was enough to catch you on his spell but too much for your poor heart.
You know that you owe a big thanks to Hoseok for arranging this date-- you didn't know what this was, to be honest. Was it a date that he agreed just for fun and not calling you in the morning, or is he thinking this is more serious than a silly date? You didn't even know what or how to think about this. Yes, you agreed to an 'arranged marriage' thing with your parents, but were you going to marry the first man you date? Were you going to decide after one date? 
Whether deciding it after the first date, or the first man, you only know one thing. And that is the amount of joy and happiness you feel heavy on your chest. Only watching him while he is eating chicken wings in extreme delight was enough to change the speed of your heartbeats, so you had only one thought. Letting him decide. 
Your judgment wouldn't be clear or sensible, you know that as the heat on your chest won't stop growing minute by minute you spend with him. 
Letting him decide if this is just a one-time thing he just agreed for his friend's sake, or he would consider marrying you. You didn't know if handing the ball in his hands was being selfish or the contrary, but you just want to enjoy the moment and not overthink it. Or about him. 
No lie, you liked him. Maybe even too much for the first date, but screwing this up the last thing you want as you always do. Selfish or not, you choose not to make a decision. 
Tumblr media
''Can I open my eyes, now?'' 
Everybody would like a little excitement in their life, as well as you. But you never imagine that excitement would be like this, taking somewhere on your first date with a blindfold. It was much more likely a napkin from the place you ate the chicken wings than a blindfold, but it didn't change the result. 
Yoongi decided to take you somewhere you could burn the calories you have been whining about. Probably you wouldn't come up with an idea about the place, but as you were almost walking for almost ten minutes, it should be close. Thinking and trying to guest the destination was useless, as you never came here before. 
One second you were worrying about marriage, but now, all that worry turns into losing your lungs. If you could stop being dramatic, you trust Yoongi enough that he wouldn't do such a thing, but would you ever stop? That is trickier than taking away by a blindfold. 
You hear Yoongi's sigh, very likely getting sick of your questions, as you never shut up asking questions. But how could you stop exactly? How could you expect him to hold you by the wrist, covering the napkin on your eyes after handling the check and saying he knows how to burn those calories. He is not resembling a creep, but who would do and say such a thing? It is suspicious. 
''Okay. You would probably slap me after finding out where we are, and the unnecessary act of cutting your sight,'' he pauses to let a giggle, hands of him leave your waist and wrist, ''Either way, prepare to defeat Y/N,'' 
Before his fingertips find the hem of the napkin and free your eyes, you collect the latest clues about the place and the thing he said. A couple of boy's voices reach your ears, shooting and directing each other. The very last hints you could get before the lights dazzle your eyes. 
''Ow,'' you whispered, covering your eyes to protect them from lights in a reflex. 
Yoongi stands there, waiting beside you while you blink your lashes in the cutest way possible, watching your eyes go between him and the basketball court. The corner of his mouth quirked up, enjoying way too much with how you look at him with wide eyes in awe. ''So?'' he holds his arms in the air, makes a circle with his body, and stops after turning his face to yours once again with a proud smile on his lips. 
''So?'' you repeat, tilting your brows. Seeing the three boys playing basketball on one of the hoops, the other one is empty, waiting for you two to play on there. There was another couple of people who were sitting on their portable chairs, drinking from their cups, and laughing. It was them and the boys who were too caught up with their game but even thinking to play in front of them made you nervous. It was duskily illuminated, but still, you had worries to play. 
''What, too scared to play with me?'' pale blond lifts an eyebrow, seeing the timid look on your eyes, he leans over, brushing his shoulder to yours, ''You know you can't beat me, don't you?'' a sheepish smile stands on his face to tease you. Yoongi didn't know about you too much, yet he could understand pushing your legs would pay. 
''Tch, please.'' just the way he thought, your ego beats your anxiety. ''I could crush you with my amazing triple shoots,'' you stick your tongue out, can't help but act like three years old while challenging him. The way you act, causes him to burst into a laugh. When he thinks you can't look cuter than before, you stand in front of him, sticking your tongue out. He must have done something so good to have you in return. 
''Well well, then you should show me those 'amazing' shoots,'' while you tilt your brows for the second time today, he leaves you in surprise, turning his back at you and starts to walk away. 
''We don't have a ball to play!'' you try to remind him, yelling at his back but he turns around, grin on his face. If he tries to look cool, you know he won't look his butt on the ground because walking backward isn't cool, or a sensible thing to do. ''You think?'' he shouts back, the mischievous glow could be seen from where you stand. 
What does 'you think' mean? You don't have a ball to play if he didn't plan this before and take one with himself but to your knowledge, you are not blind. Because one can see the orange ball-- You could go on the debate in your mind if he wasn't talking with the boys you notice before, taking their ball after having a small talk with them. 
Yoongi walks over you, bounces the ball, swirling it around his body. Basically showing off, trying to surprise you with the moves he made. You watch as the wind messes with his hair, how he grips the ball, and bounce it like a professional. He is good at what he does, and you could understand that with a glimpse of look, but also you can catch the way his eyes follow the ball, lips curled up with the delight he feels. 
You cheer for him when he passes the ball between his legs, without paying it much effort. You didn't know he was this good, as he never mentioned his interest in it, but seeing it with your bare eyes rather than just mentioning is way better. Well, little did he know you haven't shared the same interest with him. 
''Okay Jordan, pass me the ball,'' you wave your hand, directing him where to stand after he throws it. He giggles the name you call him, blessing your ears while waiting for you to make a shoot. 
It's only been a day, yet you feel like knowing him more than one day, way too comfy around him while talking, eating, or acting. You don't know if this is one of your dreams, where it affects your subconscious because all of the romantic movies you had watched too much in depression. Or simply, this man who makes you do stupid things like eating dozens of chicken wings is just a wizard. And you are affected by one of his spells, can't make proper decisions, and probably he isn't this good looking. It is all because of the spell he did. 
His eyes are not this bright, his cheeks are not that cute and tempting you to squeeze them. Or his lips are not that mesmerizing and you only want to taste them every time he smirks just because of the damn spell. You are old enough not to charm by a hair, yet all you want to do is bury your fingers in that velvety fuzz. 
''Are you gonna show me those shoots or too scared to move?'' his mouth twisted, pale skin peeking under his sweater and the coat he is wearing, glowing shamelessly. You nod, plastering a smile on your lips, can't get enough of his teasing. Even though you want to see his face after the shoot you are going to, retarding is more enjoyable. 
So when you throw the ball with a false effort, causing it to fall inches away from the hoop, you hear the squeaked laugh you never heard before. Apparently, it was too funny for him as he almost kneeled in front of you from laughing, holding his stomach while his shoulders shake. ''Well, we can say that wasn't the amazing one so far, huh?'' he teases while wiping his eyelids. You could offend by his actions if this isn't all an act, and in reality, he is the one who should laugh at. 
''Trying again? Okay, I can teach you the right way after that,'' you want to throw the ball to his head, his cockiness amazed you as you bite your lip to hold your laugh behind. The popular neurosurgeon was nowhere to be found when you eyed him. And you like the way he leaves the maturity aside, having fun with you and the time you two spend. You could easily say after spending enough time that he wasn't acting, the laugh that leaves his throat is real, as well as the shine in his eyes. Part of you doesn't want to wreck his mood or turn off the cocky light in his eyes but on the other hand, you desperately want to see his face after you stop acting and shoot a real basket. 
You bet the blonde prig won't be expecting you to take an oh so good shoot, and the cunning side of you wants to wipe that smile on his face. You want it so bad and can't help the way your body moves to the right corner, dividing your strength equally to your legs and arms before taking a shoot. With a light jump, you send the ball right into the basket, it takes two turns on the hoop before passing through it. It wasn't the best triple shoot, but you only played it in your free time with your family, yet you know that your body reveals that you played basketball very well. Much to his dismay, it was a perfect basket. You turn your head as you want to see his face, putting your hands on your waist and serving him a big grin. ''How about this one?'' the hint of your laughter can clearly be heard by him, not that you want to hide. 
He stares. 
And he stares for a long one minute, not talking nor giving you an idea with his expressions. After fixing your posture, your lips quirk in a pout, brows furrowed as you can't understand why he hasn't said anything or did. A knot sits on your stomach, you want to say something but your mouth goes dry with the uncertainty. While the deep silence takes over around you two, finally he shows a feeling on his face. 
A line appeared between his brows, a beam flash past in his eyes, and he started to walk over to you. 
Was he angry? Because you can throw a ball? Yes, you wanted some reaction, but anger wasn't the quite close expression you expect. With every step he takes, the hair on your body stands on end as you didn't know what to say. So you try to ease the nervousness you felt, ''Not so cocky after seeing this girl can play, huh?'' you mock, pointing yourself with your forefinger, wiggling your brows before he stands in front of you. 
Way... way too close. 
He stands so close that you could even see the little mole on the left side of his face, right beside his nose placed cutely on his cheek. The tiny whiteness on the same side of his lips, breaking the proportion but adding him another sweet flaw. You even pay attention to his facial line on the side of his nose, only to abstain from his eyes. Abstaining from capture by his lovely, velvety browns. And when he starts to speak, you can smell the chili sauces mixed with the beer he drank. 
''Can you wear my coat?'' with a mouth that slowly opens, you stare at him without blinking. He tilts his brows slightly, it was tiny and almost non-visible, but you catch the twitch on his jaw. 
''I'm sorry but, what?'' you baffled, obviously not expecting him asking that, and can not put it on logic. Under his bashful stare, you hear the sound when he takes a deep breath between his teeth. Cocking your head aside, you try to evaluate if you are cold or not, but you know that you haven't done anything for him to take as a hint that you are cold. Darting your eyes at him, your stomach flips over after realizing how good he looks under the slight street light that illuminated the court, the shadow of his eyelashes falling on his cheeks, mesmerizing with every blink. ''Y... you want me to wear your coat. And that's why? I'm not cold if this is what you think--'' 
''It's not. Not because you are cold,'' you watch him slipping his fingers on his hair, ruining the straight strands with a pout. Yoongi opens his mouth, but the weight of his words feels too much, he closes it again. He is thirty-five years old and should be mature enough to press this puberty feeling, and not want to cover you with his coat so no one can see the way your dress moves, expose the skin you covered with the same dress that betrayed you. And also, he knows he is not in the place to tell you what to do, or get jealous the way the others who size you up. But the first time after he gets mature enough, Yoongi can't find control over his emotions. ''I thought... thought that you could feel uncomfortable with the... dress,'' 
''Oh,'' you bite your bottom lip after getting caught off guard. Not that you are irritated or think it's possible, but is he just jealous, or is this just your mind playing games and causing you to think the impossible one? 
''But you don't have to. I mean if you are okay with your dress. You just don't... don't have to wear this.'' bubbles of laughter fills your throat as he stands stunned with wide eyes, 'o' shaped mouth is enough to melt your heart and spread heat to your chest. You bite harder your lip to hold your laugh, bend your head staring your shoes. ''Is it too distracting for you to beat me, Yoongi?'' darting over your eyes at him, you open them wide, rolling his name on your tongue only to tease him more. Getting even closer to his face, you talk in a pout. ''Do you think it's can affect others just the way it does to you?'' 
An almost unhearable whimper leaves his lips, shaky breath hits your cheek. A shade of embarrassment crept towards his cheekbones, increasing his cuteness. He stares speechless, you could only catch the loud gulp from his throat and you know it is enough of teasing him. 
''Okay, I'm admitting.'' taking a step back, you pat his shoulder. ''I'm a little cold, and it looks cozy.'' you lie while pinching his coat. His dull expression slowly fades, the corner of his lips tilt in the shape of a smile. Eye bags puffing up, face lines appear only to puss his soft cheeks on his cheekbones. 
You are not going to admit this to him, but the way your heart flinches under your chest, the way his soft smile cuts your breath, and the way your fingers physically pains to touch his cheeks just unbearable to hold on. At first, you only thought that his lips were in a good shape, can be even called cute but right now, they were just tempting. It was almost aching how your feet itch to take a step closer, and closer until your breaths can mix with each other, and the so imagined taste meets with your lips. 
''Here,'' he acts, taking his coat off of him swiftly to wrap it around you, and he does gently. Helping you to pass your arms in its sleeve, patting your shoulders after he links each button, as he looks way too pleased with the gummy smile that pinned to his face. ''Better now?'' he asks sincerely, wanting to make sure of your comfort, so you nod in appreciation. 
The heat immediately rushes over to your body, you thought you were joking before but after feeling the relaxation on your muscles, you surprise how cold you were. Wearing a dress in this weather without any coat was a big mistake, you noted. 
''So, if there is nothing you can object to, can we go on and play? Or, are you too scared?'' he scoffs at your playfulness, tilting a brow. Yoongi does not know how to react the way you wiggle your brows, the way you dare him with the buffoon smile. Luckily, he has another plan on his mind. ''So eager to taste the defeat, huh? All right then, I will give you a lesson.'' 
''Hah. Bring it on--''
''-But, before you get all moody, I want to do something.'' in return of his sparkling browns, your lips curl into a pout. Not expecting him to cut you off like this, even though he didn't do it without having any kindness. It only takes two seconds for you to realize what he was up to when his palms cover your cheek, timid touches of his fingertips on your skin. Is he going to kiss you in public? In your first time? Should you object? Between trying to ease the chaos on your mind, and understanding if you want this or not, hot breath already stands way too close to your lips. It was not a lie that you were thinking about kissing him a minute ago, but when this happened as a reality, you stand there like a deer in the headlights. 
Before you can choke yourself with overthinking, his whisper cuts it. ''Can I?'' he raises his brows, asking for your permission one more time before going for it, making sure of your emotions and thoughts about himself. Eyes of him scan yours pleadingly, as he was trying to emphasize his intentions. You were so nonplussed by what he was up to that you couldn't even move a muscle, only blink hard enough to capture the moment, face turning scarlet with the heat just crept towards. Feeling your heartbeats on your cheeks, under his fingertips. Every loud hammer brought your heart over your mouth, mouth dried completely. But you manage to voice, almost inaudible. 
''Please,'' 
When you met with his lips, it wasn't soft as you expected due to his dried lips, but soon after it changed. After you part your lips to capture his bottom lip between yours, a ball of warmness just explodes. Reaches till your fingertips from your chest, tiny mewl slides by you with the strong rhapsody you have inside. 
It was palm pulling, lips trying to deepen the kiss kind of keenness you both felt for learning, acknowledging each other. Soon after one of his hands left your cheek to pull you closer as your fingers weren't enough to do so. The others were long forgotten, it was just you and him. Everywhere was clouded, protecting your intimacy from others. 
You were only tasting, knowing, and capturing each other. 
When the kiss broke out as both of you needed fresh air in your burning lungs, you were shocked by the way you carried away by your desire. You, probably Yoongi too, was feeling the same way, find this very immature, unwisely but the thing you feel, and wish that he was feeling the same way you do was beyond your imagination. The attraction was between you from the first time you started to bond today, but you could never think that would be this euphoric. 
Between heavy breathing, and adjusting the moment you just shared cuts off by his hoarse voice. ''Was this highly good or is it just me?'' you snort at his silliness, slap him by the head before he can react. 
''You'll get your answer if you can beat me,'' tearing yourself apart, you take the ball despite his whines. But as he sees you won't step back, he sends hair-raising glares at you. 
Soon after, the contest loses its solemnity and turns into something where Yoongi chases you with the ball to throw at you. And you found yourself giggling, running away while screaming in tiny. With a glance at you two, and no one would believe you two for being over thirty but it felt so good to act without caring for anyone. You almost forget the feeling of happiness, cooing from joy, and having someone not minding your bullshits even on day one. 
Of course, you accept how the kiss felt 'highly good', holding your palms up in surrender, before laying on the grass. Not that you lost the game, more likely from winning the better prize. The blond neurosurgeon, at age thirty-five was your prize. To be honest, he is the best thing that happened to you in ages without any exaggeration. For all you know is that maybe arranged marriages were not that bad. 
Frankly, you wouldn't dare to lie and say you still object it while watching the man beside you. He gave you more than you expected. The comfort, happiness, and tickling bubbles on your chest. And you hope that would last long enough to the day you knew each other like an open book. As you wanted to know and more about him, every little detail, and every tiny mimic he makes. 
And you will see that day if you are lucky enough.
Tumblr media
''We are out of rice!'' you flinch with the loud voice, take a big sigh at the view you see in the mirror. Lipstick extends along to your right cheek from your lips, as the outcome of hearing the thick voice without any warnings. ''And the last toilet paper just finished!'' tsking audibly, you take the wet tissue to clean the mess you made. While wiping the ruins of the lipstick, you hear the whining voice once more, closer this time. 
''We don't have any toothpaste, either. God, why don't we have anything? Aren't you supposed to take care of the grocery this time? It was your turn,'' the man is nothing but in black sweatpants and a white shirt appears, constant grumble on his mouth trying your patience. ''You have lipstick on your cheek,'' he points his face to address where the stain is as you lock your gaze on him by the mirror. 
''You don't say,'' lifting the brows you watch him narrowing his eyes, scoffing at your answer. ''And I was thinking why I have wet tissue on my hand. Thank you, babe.'' he rolls his eyes, sighs while ruining his hair. Black hair flies in the air, every pinch falling another direction and it warms your heart. Your husband dyed his hair black from blonde after having a white hair crisis and deciding to dye it for good. Not that you didn't like the blonde hair on him, but black was something different. It gave destructive charisma to him that you adore so much. 
It is the greatest thing since sliced bread. 
''When you say they'll bring Hoseong and Aera again?'' after finishing the cleaning, you turn to your husband who asks nonchalantly but the light in his eyes says he is happy. ''They'll be here any time soon. Why?'' 
He shrugs a shoulder, acting as he is not interested. ''Just curios. I'll adjust my appointments so,'' you nod, giggling as you decide to reach him. Leaving your bean bag chair, you take a two-step to wrap your arms around his neck. 
Brushing your nose to his, ''You love to hang out with them, don't you?'' you ask, mentioning your nephews. Even before he admits, you already knew that he adores them. Hoseong at nine and Aera at seven years old buck of happiness for Yoongi, and you can see it in his eyes. The way he plays with them, caring for them always puts a light serene in your heart, but you two never mentioned having a child. Soon after you are scared to open it as you are afraid that he doesn't want to have kids, but the love he had for your nephews always confused your mind and heart. 
''Well, they are fun to hang out,'' he tears his eyes from you but you catch the attempt to hide the smile he had. Lips forcefully stay flat but gaze full of bubbles. But when you tilt your brows, staring at him with a pout, you break him. ''Okay, okay... I love those chubby kiddos. You know how smart they are, don't you? Aera asked my opinion about Pluto, whether it's a planet or not. Can you believe it?'' 
''You are so whipped,'' you let out a laugh that wrinkles your eyelids. His enthusiasm over your nephews made your day, a bolt of laughter spilled by your lips over and over again until you managed to ease it. ''such a cute man,'' wiping your tears away from your face cut by his hands when he grabbed yours. 
''Y/N, did you... did you ever think about having a child? I know we never talked about this all these years, but I guess... No, I know I want one. Yes, I want us to have a child to raise together.'' his eyes burned with determination. It was enough for you to know he really serious about it. There was nothing for you to obligate it if you look. Both of you get paid well, had a nice home and big enough even for two kids, moreover, both of you love each other so much and you know that you two will love the exact same way if you have a child in this home. ''What do you think?'' 
Taking a deep breath to ease your thoughts you eyed the man you adored so much. His keenness sparkled in his eyes, waiting for your answer to be the happiest man alive. Even if you wouldn't want a kid in your life, you couldn't break his heart by saying no, but fortunately, you want this as much as him. 
''I would love to have a baby who has the same gummy smile you got on there,'' Yoongi, your husband coos after what you said, holding you by the waist and twirls your body with himself. He acts like you just said you are pregnant, but you laugh and kiss him back when his soft one finds your lips. He thanks, swears that he will be the greatest dad and husband for this family. 
The ring on the door cuts his words, tearing himself apart from you, he leaves to open the door wiggling his body in great joy. But you believe him. You would believe him even if he hadn't sworn and put his heart on it. He already was the best husband ever, and you had nothing to worry, frighten for. He will be the best dad in this world, as you know because he said so. Just like the time, he said you two will make a good couple after he took you home on your first date. As he said, you took his heart and his last name after four years. 
Never regretting for one second on agreeing to go on an arranged date. And you knew that you won't have any other regret in the future, either. Not with the sweetest neurosurgeon you love so much.

Episode 1 Review
I will now be doing a post after every night of One Chicago talking about how I felt about the episodes of the night. Since I decided to do this after episode 2 aired, this review for episode 1 is a little late. PD's review will most likely always be the longest because it is my favorite of the three.
Chicago Med: You Can't Always Trust What You See
The goodbye between Will and Natalie was heartbreaking. Manstead was the couple I first shipped when I started Med, and part of me always wanted them to work out.
Good news though, Will is back in the ED, and he is looking as good as ever. His hair is flawless!
The secret investigation into Dr. Cooper seems like a pretty interesting plotline that I hope ends well.
The case with the twins was so crazy, but very creative, and the whole Archer-Charles feud had me on the edge of my seat.
Archer can go somewhere else. I do not like him one bit.
Dylan Scott is the sweetest thing! And him bringing up a connection to Jay was a nice piece added to the episode.
Stevie seems like she's gonna be an amazing doctor who always wants the best for her patients. However, I can tell the writers are building up a relationship between Will and Stevie, and while I believe they'd be a great couple, Will needs a break. He's had his heartbroken way too much throughout the seasons.
I lived for Crockett and Will sort of beginning to form a real friendship. I love the both of them and I just want them to sort things out.
Chicago Fire: Mayday
I knew that the writers weren't gonna kill anyone off from Squad 3, but I did not expect Cruz to almost die! That man is about to be a father. Leave him be!
Kelly and Stella being the number one couple as always!
Gallo, Ritter, and Violet are literally the definition of squad goals! I love seeing them together. And that moment when Herrmann showed up at Blake's place was comedy gold.
I'll admit, that save Matt did with the boy was pretty cool.
Matt and Sylvie trying to keep their relationship a secret obviously didn't last long because Capp and Tony caught on, and if they caught on, then everyone knows.
The idea for the microbrewery business is genius! Maybe Molly's will start selling Gallo's product.
Herrmann knows that something is going on with Cruz but he doesn't want to push him into talking if he's not comfortable.
Boden is leaving 51! He's so iconic and I don't know how the show will be with him not being in the firehouse anymore.
Chicago PD: Closure
Jay's immediate reaction to Hailey's proposal had be laughing for a quite a bit, and I had to pause the show to gather myself.
Adam being super worried about Kim had me reminiscing to the time when they were actually together way back in seasons 2 and 3.
Hailey being concerned over them chasing leads that could possibly lead them to being exposed, but Voight just shutting her down and assuring her it'd be okay was sort of like a parallel to season 5. And we all know what happened to Al when Voight said he'd take care of everything.
The hair tie!
Hailey snapping at the witness shocked me a little, but to be fair, he was quite annoying.
I don't know how Jay and Kevin didn't figure out something was wrong when they mentioned Mark cause Voight and Hailey were acting sus as hell.
Hailey and Jay's conversation in the gangway after Mark got away was a nice moment between the two of them, and Jay can now definitely tell that something is wrong.
Hailey saying she'd confess to everything when Mark had a hostage made me realize just how torn up she is about the whole situation.
Miller and Kevin's conversation had me dying! I lowkey kind of like them in scenes together so lets get some more of that.
Sniper Jay!
The conversation between Hailey and Kim made me a little upset cause I really want them to be great friends but if Kim finds out that Hailey is lying about Roy, I have a feeling there will be some tension there.
Jay's proposal at the end was unexpected, to say the least. Part of me is excited because I have shipped Upstead for the longest time and I just want them to be happy. However, the only reason Hailey proposed in the first place was because she was having a breakdown and wanted something stable in her life.
