Lark Liveblogs Literature: THE SUNSHINE COURT BABYYYYY LETS GO JEAN
to begin: THE COVER???
The fucking NARCISSUS/DAFFODIL. Stop stop stop. Nora stop. She said it wouldn’t be a sun but I WASNT READY.
RESILIENCE. FIRST BLOOM AT THE END OF WINTER. NEW BEGINNINGS AND REBIRTH.
warning in advance for how many reaction images will be in this post. Miss Nora Sakavic has a way of making me unable to verbalise how devistated I am so I turn to goofy photos.
Also, just so we’re all on the same page:
it’s 1:20 AM. My roommate IS asleep. I am fighting the demons (downloading this book) but i am winning (it is queued on my kindle)
ITS DOWNLOADED LETS GO
Okay so context is that my Kindle is at 10%
I tried to go to bed and read this in the morning but I am
SO NOW I HAVE FRANTICALLY FOUGHT A WAR (figured out how to get this book) AND I AM READY FOR BATTLE (to cry over Jean)
ONE, TWO, THREE, LETS GO BITCH!!
Also my kindle cord is too small for me to properly lay in bed so im literally about to lay on my stomach kicking my feet like a middle schooler WISH. ME. LUCK.
CHAPTER ONE:
oh we’re jumping right in okay. god. hi baby :((
OH. I am just adding onto my #1 Riko hater agenda right now.
“The golden rule— not where the public can see” DIE. LITERALLY DIE TETSUJI
“The lack of broken fingers this time” THIS TIME??? JEAN. JEAN.
im so.
RENEE!!!
“and he had wasted them texting Renee a heads-up.” Nora please we’re only four pages in bro
Renee i love you im marrying you please give me a kiss. Mwah Mwah Mwah. She said “Bitch. Lay back down.”
currently also reading a batshit raven!neil fic and just. on the ground. about all of this.
stop the way I literally went “who the fuck is Nathaniel” Im too transgender for this.
Me, seeing the Abby content we need in this world:
Jean dont call that hellscape home bbg
Renee beating self worth into this man. ily
“Jean couldnt remember the last time he was allowed to wear color” LITERALLY KILL ME
Nora I need you to be less good at describing pain please and thanks
NOT THE BITING
DADMACK DADMACK DADMACK DADMACK!!
he fr be moving this man like a doll. love you wymack
tied him up with racquet laces I. h. lays on floor softly crying.
NOT THE DADDY ISSUES
Jean fr out here plotting 50 ways to kill his brother. he fr though Neil was the problem. no girl Neil just has no tact and autism rizz. Kevins the fucking snitch
no one:
Jean @ the Moriyamas;
“that man is years overdue for a head-on high-speed collision” YOU TELL EM DADMACK
CHAPTER TWO:
Jean please just sleep like a normal human man. God.
Even Jean be out here like “Kevins a little Chihuahua ass drama queen. Bitchboy. Wet cat man.”
Kevin: look, bro, if the 5’3 twink with enough daddy issues to make riko blush and chugs ‘fuck around and find out’ juice for breakfast can escape the moriyamas and not die, so can you.
Testuji. Testuji when I catch you. Tetsuji
Jean what the fuck makes you think anyone but Andrew Minyard will ever tell Neil what to do. Girl.
“If I am not a Raven, who am I?” A MOTHERCUCKING TROJAN BABYYYY
“I have to go to my next class.” I forgot they were in college deadass. Neil is straight up my age im gonna throw up.
Okay. It is. *checks time* 3 AM. I cannot keep my eyes open, which means i must put Jean away for sleep.
ITS IS NOON THE FOLLOWING DAY. I HAVE SLEPT. I HAVE TAKEN MY MEDICATIONS. TIME TO HYPERFOCUS BABY.
KINDLE SAYS WE HAVE 8 hrs 27 mins LEFT IN THIS BOOK. IM SAYING GOODBYE TO MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY. I’LL SEE Y’ALL AT DINNEE TIME. ITS JEAN TIME.
Hiiiiiii Thea….
“Good morning, Paris.” Now, the average man will see this as a reference to his frenchness. but real ones know Paris is prince of Troy, the man who married Helen of Troy & started the Trojan war.
do y’all think Jean has a french accent wait wait wait. obviously itd be very slight at this point but is it there. necessary question.
Assessing Thea like a fucking state exam right now. Neil could not have cared less about your ass I am gaining so much information
Hate of my life Riko moriyama.
CHAPTER THREE:
JEREMY FUCKING KNOW HI BAYYYBY
the way I literally got up and had to pace and stim for a moment even though I fully expected this. autism. my roommate is concerned. not really. she’s used to this she watched me read TKM and dramatically reenact the Ichirou Car Talk.
wow??? AFTG team actually seems happy and well-adjusted and friendly with each other??
Random Note: I’m currently watching Blue Exorcist & one of the main characters is a girl name Moriyama and I’m literally just sitting here like “This girl is way to nice and innocent to have that name.” Because she literally is the nicest girl to ever exist. Why is she cursed with the same name as my mortal enemy (Testuji)
“Tonight’s experiment was the icing on the cake, an invaluable experience no matter how it ended.” Jeremy, my love.
He has empathy… Never before seen footage. Y’all get the cameras!!
He’s so shaken about Jean,,, holding you so gently Jeremy. Here as a guy who knows nothing at all about Jeremy since I’m. so new here. but god.
Jeremy: are you sure a Raven can abide by Troja—
Kevin: Bro Jean is so pathetic he’s a bottom fr. He never disobeys an order
Jeremy: I. Okay you didnt have to say it like that, bro.
I will literally never stop respecting the Trojans strat in the final they really said. “If these fucks can win the championships with nine players, surely we can.” and then willingly got their asses handed to them.
“Xavier stumbled when he got the next serve off, and the Fox guarding him gamely hauled him back upright before running for the ball. It was a simple gesture, but it endeared Jeremy to them” I dont remember if this bit was described in tkm so i’m going to guess that’s Nicky or Matt. Aaron would fucking never.
Nah because like. Yes this proved to the Trojans how resilient the Foxes were, but it was also a message to the audience, yk? Like we know the Foxes were getting shit for their quick rise to the top after they pulled their shit together, but I personally think that the Trojans did this both for their improvement & for Foxes’ publicity. This game proved to the public at large how devastatingly *good* the Foxes were, because of their small size. The second best team in the league crumbled playing the same conditions the Foxes did *every game* and got to championships with. They proved that Foxes were, in fact, a D1 team who earned their keep.
oh hes got daddy’s money. Well. not. officially. yo what I mean.
“it was always best to have a paper trail” Neil Josten would have an anuerysm hearing those words.
Bye Jeremy I’m. Love you so much. Why do you feel like a sixty year old man in your early twenties.
“between seven and twelve students.” yikes.
“unfamiliar and accented voice.” I WAS RIGHT I FUCKING CALLED IY HES GOT AN ACCENT BABY FUCK YEAH
“you ever feel like— like you’re making a choice you cant come back from? But even knowing everything could go completely sideways, you’d make that choice every time?” okay so coming out allegories i could make aside, Jeremy is so… where to start with him. He reminds me of Percy Jackson. Endlessly loyal and selfless to the point its a bit stupid but endearingly stupid.
CHAPTER FOUR:
Okay so we’re alresdy hateflirting. noted.
Its also extremely sunny today in Podunk Hicksville where I live so it feels very On Brand.
“Jean had seen that smile in a half-dozen broadcast… He could picture it too easily, and he dug his fingernails into his own face in vicious warning.” Awww you think you can best the gay worms in your brain. goodluck with that Johnny.
“isn’t that reason enough to keep living? To rediscover simple delight one moment at a time,” keeping this quote for eternity
“enough sunlight to chase away Evermore’s shadows. They are willing to take a chance on you. Aren’t you?”
Kevin Day autistic king. taking this hesdcannon to my grave .
“the conspiracy theorists were working overtime” no girl they just aint stupid.
THEY DESTROYED HIS POSTCARDS…
CHAPTER FIVE:
I want to start keeping record of all the times Jean is like “[name] wasn’t decent enough to [thing]” because its SO funny. We LOVE a petty king.
also keeping track of all the insults he throws at Neil.
Neil likes to think he’s SUUUUCH a loner boy no friends angsty “dont speak to me” resting bitch face ass motherfucker. In reality he is a jack russell terrier — ceritifed jack russell owner who’s dog thinks hes soooo big and bad but said dog literally cries when you dont let him in the bed or say hi to people on the street
Jean is SOOOOOO dramatic 😭😭
Jean: Why would you let Kevin do this.
Neil: let him?? He did that on his own.
Jean: you’re proud of him for being a problem, arent you?
Neil: oh you fucking know I am, bitchass
“but other than his outstanding murder charge there was nothing interesting about that Fox.” i’d consider that very interesting information, Jean. Youre just deranged
“with milk, juice, and vodka dominating one shelf” that’s Aaron, Nicky, Andrew/Kevin in order. Im correct.
“There was an entire drawer dedicated to cheese.” Yeah that sounds like Nicky.
“Half the drawer was full of mini candy bars. Jean threw them all into the trash” bro Andrew is going to kill you in cold blood and not even Neil can save you.
Jean is SO dramatic. Give him Kevin’s crown.
Jean @ Neil during the final: ARE YOU WITHOUT INTELLIGENCE????? ARE YOU STUPID??? DO YOU WANT TO DIE??
Seeing the media coverage of the championship is the food I needed thank you Nora for this. I am eating it up. om nom nom
The sportscasters referring to athletes with their first name is batshit. What. why. huh. Absolutely not.
CHAPTER SIX:
Renee protecting Jean from discovering Riko’s death through media & not through them…
Everytime boys start fistfighting in this series I hear Roxanne from Megamind. “Ladies, ladies, you’re BOTH pretty.”
a) Jeans reaction to finding out was exaclty what I expected
b) I’m FASCINATED to know who called campus security. Jeremy?? Renee?? Someone in Fox tower???
Neil was gentle with someone other than Andrew? I didnt know he knew how to do that…
NEIL. NEIL JOSTEN. YEAH BABY
HES ROOMING WITH CAT AND LAILA??? YES YEA YES YESY
the Jean-Renee dynamic is so fucking important to me. MLM/WLW solidarity. theyre besties.
THEYRE SO IMPORTANT TO ME BRO.
Literally snuggling Jeremy
Oh he’s got Fox potential. Hiiii Jeremy. Give me the traumadump bbg
THEY/THEM??? DO MY EYES DECEIVE ME OR IS THIS AN HONEST TO GOD THEY/THEM PLAYER OH ILL CRY. ILL CRU RIGHT NOW
CHAPTER SEVEN:
Oh Jean. you’re about to have such a gay awakening babe i can feel it in my bones.
A FUCKING YOYO??? I LOVE HIM
“A mite bit hecked up” PLEEEASE JUST SAY FUCK /ref
OH HE WAS IN LOVE WITH KEVIN. INTERESTING INTERESTING INTERESTING.
autism coded lookingg motherfucker (stares at Jean.)
The chaos of Cat and Laila’s house is so fucking cute. Its about to be two lesbians and their distrustful pitbull rescue in this bitch and im ready for it.
CHAPTER EIGHT:
watching normal people discover the cult that is Evermore. Finally someone having a normal response to that madness. What the FUCK.
wait theres actually a cardboard dog i thought it was fanon joke.
oh my god there is actually a fucking cardboard dog. i.
jeans brain just got actually shattered by this living room. he cannot comprehend this.
Cat & Jeremy, realizing the cult rumors are real: I THOUGHT YOU WERE KIDDING! I thought it was joke! I even wrote it down in my diary! “Kevin made a very funny joke today!” I laughed at it later that night!
Okay, last night; I went to bed at 2:30 AM 45% through (college my beloathed). we’re back in business.
Jeremy is so disturbed all of the time. goofy ass.
“Loving something is not enough,”
“When was the last time you enjoyed playing?”
“ Irrelevant.”
Whats his shirt look like Jeremy. Jeremy whats the shirt look like. Jeremy. Whats the shirt look like.
Okay so I’ve reached my image limit for this post and I dont have fun reaction images on my laptop. so now I will post this & reblog with the rest of this book.

How to make a strong academic comeback
My academic year started in February, and now it's August, which means I slacked off for nearly 6 months. I couldn't cope up with the academic pressure. Spent some months trying out new things ,hanging out with friends, trying to understand the new concepts and terms of the brand new fatass books. When the first exam knocked at the door, I couldn't help but cry looking at the 100 pages long syllabus just for one subject. With all the 13 subjects and huge syllabus, I did not know how to study all these just for 10 marks. It was like trying to swim in an ocean just after learning swimming . It was the same scenario for most of my friends. Just to fuel up my anxiety, my nerdy friends would say they haven't studied anything yet. I, of course, knew what "anything" actually meant. However, I crammed for exams and forgot most of them eventually, and of course, my score wasn't up to the mark . But I wasn't that serious because it was the same for all of us .It did bother me though, i just didn't let it affect it much until it hit me that my board exam is just 11 months away and ive hardly started anything . I am lagging behind in so many subjects. So it came to me that I SERIOUSLY NEED TO MAKE A COME BACK . And I did made a successful comeback and I am sure you will do too. So,
HERE'S MY GUIDE TO MAKE A SASSY COMEBACK.
I swear it truly works if you struggle to be consistent like me.
1. CLEAN UP YOUR DESK RIGHT NOW
Put on some music on and just clean the desk, please. I know it might sound either ridiculous or classic to some of you. But believe me, it's the game changer. Why, you ask? Because,
• It will be the source of motivation to study
• You will be aware of your study materials
• You will find out so many things that you thought were lost for months (I found 2 pens that i lost a year ago)
• You will have a clear idea about the study materials you need.
• You might find your inspiration to study harder (like I found my old to-do list diary, and it reminded me how I nailed my national exam). It might boast up your confidence level.
• Find out unused pages that you can easily reuse.
• Let your mind wander, and it will relieve stress.
• Finally, you will have a clean and arranged desk and a motivated clear mind.
Next,
2. Take a paper and a pen
Write down all the pending works . I know it's hard. Take time if you need it, sometimes, we don't acknowledge what we are lagging behind, so use the motivation and get going.
I urge you to do this on the same day. If you did these 2 things you can either call it a day or you can
3. Put a timer of 5 mins and start studying 1 topic
leave it after 5 mins . In this way, this unfinished task won't leave your mind, and you will feel intrigued to finish it. (source: yt :in59seconds )
4. Wake up 15 mins earlier next day and move your body
You will feel a lot better I swear. Try to stretch everyday after waking up for 7 days .
These 4 minimal task is easy to follow. I dare you to stop reading from here and get your asses up to get some work done. I wish you luck on your sassy comeback. You got this.
I will be back with more tips and tricks like this. So stay tuned and comment down if these tips helped you and update me with your sassy comeback. Love you.

My Hero Academia Love History-Girl from nowhere
Chapter 1- New begining
The young woman sighed looking at the huge building in front of her. She stood in the middle of the entrance gate, where around her other boys and girls of her age entered without stopping, ready to take the entrance exam for the best hero academy in Japan.
-Move,extra!
Someone said while bumping into her shoulder.
-I´m sorry....!
She saw the one that hit her.It was a tall blonde boy.He walked past her without even looking at her...he just told her to get out of the way rudely. On the other hand, he was right, she had been left standing in the middle of the huge gate...although there was still much more room to go through.
She rubbed her arm and finally decided to move forward and cross to the other side. Some people had already grouped up and were talking to each other; she saw the blond boy from before, she was talking to a boy who seemed to be as scared and nervous as she was; green, messy hair and a face full of freckles.
-Deku!- the blonde yelled- get out of my way or I'll liquidate you!!
-M-Morning good luck on the test! -said the other boy stuttering
The blond grunted and walked past her ignoring the other boy.
She was reaching the green-haired boy's height when she heard two people discreetly point at the blond and comment:
-Isn't that Bakugo?....the one from the fight with the mud monster?
-It is true!! -commented the other
Then she remembered that she had seen something on the news, and that her co-workers at the hotel she cleaned also commented it with fear and disgust on their voices, unlike her, none of her co-workers had quirks, and this whole thing about villains and monsters scared them a lot. .
The young woman quickened her pace and entered the large building. She was counting on the fact that this UA test would not take too long, since she had to go back to work... it had already cost her part of her salary to be allowed to leave work to go do the test.She was sure that was illegal,but didn´t dared to complain.
The guy from before stumbled on his own feet.
-¿You ok?...
Another girl came forward asking the same thing, but she held him in the air thanks to her quirk.
Seeing that none of them had noticed her, she did not stop and continued forward.
***
The auditorium was almost completely full when she entered. She took a seat in a free place, towards the back of the auditorium.
-Welcome young heroes! ....welcome to my live performance!! everyone say "hey"!!
The auditorium fell silent, but Present Mic did not lose his enthusiasm and continued to welcome everyone.
-Now I will explain everything you need to know about the practical test, are you ready?!!!
Again the icy silence.
Seiko leaned back in her chair, resting her left hand on her chin.
-It's the vocal present mic hero! I hear it every day on the radio! he is so cool!!
Without moving from her position, she looked towards the origin of the voice, it was the boy with green hair, and next to her was the unpleasant blonde from before.
-Shut up-Bakugo said.
-As I think you already know, now we will proceed to a practical test of 10 min outdoors
Seiko saw the small identification that was sent to her.It figured her photo,false details of her "old school" and a number addressed with a letter,that identified where she would have the test.....area B she read.
-Hi!
She nearly fell off her chair in fright.
-Kaja!-She suddenly lowered her voice as she remembered where she was- what are you doing here? how did you find me?
-I have been sent to find you so that you can return to the Red Room.
-No way," she whispered.
-Hey! you two!-exclaimed the boy from before-I want to talk!! also goes for you ... yes, you! the boy with wild hair and a normal face!!
Kaja grunted and Seiko did the same, her face twisting in embarrassment as the audience began to laugh. The boy cleared his throat and began to speak.
-In the brochure it says that there are four types of villains and such a mistake is not worthy of UA High!! ...It is unacceptable!! we come here to ......
Kaja's lip curled.
"He talks too much... I don't like him" said Kaja
Seiko shrugged, still embarrassed from earlier.
-Have you left the red room for this?...with our training that test is child's play for us, Seiko...
-Shhh
Kaja rolled her eyes and slumped back in her chair.
-Wait....-Seiko whispered.-Do you also participate?
Kaya nodded.
-Wherever you go I go, my friend... I also have to watch you
Seiko frowned.
-We'll talk about it
Kaja shrugged as she looked at her identification to take the exam.
-OKAY!!!! Candidate 71111!! you're right!! this is a special type of villain that does not give points!! they are to be, so,just let them be.... they tend to appear in places with little space, and are scattered throughout all areas! so.....I would tell you to ignore them!! you can beat them, but that doesn't give any points...
The boy sat down, and present mic kept talking.
-For my part, everything has already been said! as Napoleon Bonaparte said!! ...a hero is one who perseveres in the face of misfortune!! Good luck to all, and PLUS ULTRAAAAAAA!!!

hmmmmmmm (an entry diary)
Should I change my tumblr colors? I feel like it’s more pink than yellow. I want more yellow. I know there’s already yellow, but I WANT MORE EJUDSFDJN
ALL HAIL YELLOW!
-also I have an exam for the first day of school, wish me luck :’)
---------------
Entry 1: Why the hell can't I have just a yellow theme, why does tumblr friggin change my accent to black on mobile? ITS STILL READABLE AND WAY DARK. This isn't going well. >:(
Entry 2: ok, I give up. I'll stick to the old one.
Entry 3: I can't leave it like that. I don't like it, but also dislike EVERYTHING.
I WANT YELLOW!!!
Entry 4: ok, I know it's not 100 percent yellow... but let's give it a try, ok? Let's not judge, I know it looks different but I'm trying.
ENTRY 5: ITS BEEN HOURS AND IM BACK AND IM GOING TO CRY!!! I DISLIKE THE COLORS SO MUCH BUT IDK WHAT TO DO. I'll leave it alone for a while, and see what happens....
Entry 6 (and the last): ok, 25 mins have gone by and went back to change it, sue me. I have an idea of how I want the blog to be, but that means I have to redraw my banner and profile (don't worries, wig oso will stay).
I have decided it to be fav color combo, the primary colors! So maybe a bit more retro, idk, I'll see.
Goodbye, strawberry theme (edit: that's a lie, how can I say no to strawberries)

If I try very hard I might maybe perhaps be able to pass calculus but I don't think I will

Oh man, alright - I'll start trainee work today at 2pm going until 6pm and then I'll go directly to University, where I'll be spending time between 6:30pm until 11pm until I get home. And tomorrow early I'll be catching a bus to meet up with my family in another city for the weekend - and THEN I'll be leaving at the evening up until the night because I'll be going to my first show ever (invited by my old High School teacher who's now my friend!) on Friday. Which means, my activity will be VERY SPOTTY between today and tomorrow!!

#Day 19
Damn we’re nearing the end, aren’t we?
Morning café study session started late and went on longer today. To the point where people were there for lunch and I was still in my morning clothes. God. But well, as long as I get studying done!
Planning to finish CNS today with a couple of other read worthy essays from my Paeds exam. Will follow that with some Gen Med refreshment, a quicker flip through than yesterday, the study session and record writing after that. If I do the necessary bit, I’ll conclude with extra Paeds reading :)
Yay! Did all those things today! Fell short in the record sector but I have divided that target over the coming 4 days and it feels doable.. (fingers crossed.
Restocked fruits today, the evening sky was glorious, like a fire burning across the horizon. I was walking without my phone otherwise I would’ve captured it.
Study session was illuminating today. I’m so grateful for them :’) This candle kept me company today ^_^
Got a long day tomorrow- Paediatric Kidney and Blood, all Ortho questions, study sesh, 5 Ortho cases and 4-5 paediatric cases to write. I guess I’m gonna span the cases in my breaks. Write 1-2 in 30 mins between study breaks. So like:
2 hr Study> 15 mins chill> 35 mins record> 20 min break > 2 hr Study and so on
I’m not stressing over General Medicine at the moment (because stressing is pointless) and I’m just trying to go one day at a time. Want to be done with records as soon as possible, also with Paediatrics and Orthopaedics so that I can revise OG and Surgery and focus on my first exam- Medicine!
I’ll go to bed now, will try to wake up by 6 and depending on my freshness status, either write 2 cases or read kidney essay in the study room.
Wish me luck!

Could you possibly write a stray kids reaction to their s/o being stressed out over school?
STRAY KIDS Reaction: s/o stressed over school
A/N: My first official request on Tumblr!!! Thank you~❤️ I relate to this SO much, so yes, I can do it🥰 Ultimately I think they’d all try to alleviate the stress one way or another😇
Genre: Fluff
Requested: Yes!!
Warnings: None; just talking about school stress, but this is gn!!
————————
Bang Chan:
Chan would want to do EVERYTHING POSSIBLE to relieve you of your stress, but he doesn’t want to come off as too clingy. So I think the best solution he could come up with is first asking you to take a break and talk to him. He’d ask you what exactly about school is stressing you out, and he’ll try to help you in any way that he can. That doesn’t mean he’ll do the work for you (if he’s whipped enough he might write your essay) but he’ll definitely sit down with you and help you organize your thoughts/prioritize what’s necessary. He’d bring you snacks too~
“Okay baby cmon, let’s go take a walk and talk about what’s bothering you okay? We can come back in 10-15 minutes and I’ll help you get organized.”
Lee Know:
Minho would be more quiet and let you be. I think he’d resize you’re stressed, but he wouldn’t do much unless you straight up tell him it’s too much, or he sees you breaking down. In that case I think he’d opt for massaging your shoulders, then telling you to take a little break so you can go back to your work with a clear mind. During your break he’d probably also be one to make you a snack/meal and he’d feed it to you by hand🥺 Minho’s also a really good listener, so he’d definitely sit with you while you eat and rant (he’ll just be the listener unless you want advice)
“Ah... well I think she should’ve explained it better. Next time just email her to prevent that from happening again.”
Changbin:
I think Changbin is the type to be like “Oh let me see it? Yeah, yeah I think I can help you with it.” I don’t know much about their student lives, but Changbin strikes me as someone who was fairly good in school, so he would try to help you understand the content, if that’s what you’re struggling with in the school stress aspect. If you understand it and it’s a matter of not being motivated to do it, he’d try to motivate you because manz has a way with words
Hyunjin:
“Hey Hyunjinnie do you think you could help me with number 4-“
“AHHH! NO!”
... Uh, yeah good luck. Hyunjin isn’t helping you mostly because he doesn’t remember and/or understand because school is ✨yuck✨ and he’d rather not think about it. However, Hyunjin does understand that school is important for you because you want to do academically well to get your dream job. Jinnie cares about your mental health (like all of SKZ) so he’d prompt you to take a break. If you’re head on about finishing your assignments before taking a break, he’ll become serious and try to motivate you to the best of his ability. He’s the type to offer to sit with you and kiss you for each question you answer (correctly or not). He’d also probably lay in your lap while you type away on your computer, completely focused and seldom bringing one hand to his luscious hair while you reread what you wrote.
Han:
Again, I don’t have much idea about their school lives but I don’t think Jisung cared too much about school 💀 which probably means he won’t be as helpful in solving your math problems for you. I mean he’ll try, but you’re better off asking Google. Like Changbin, he’ll try to motivate you with his words and he’ll sit there with you till you’re done no matter how long that may be. Might even bring some fruit or cheesecake and feed you while you work (🥺)
“Hey, look at me. I know this is hard. I’m sorry I’m not much help but you can do it okay? If it’s too hard, then throw it away! It’s your teacher’s fault you don’t get it. But I want you to try your best okay? Remember I’m your #1 fan. Let’s try this again yeah? LETS GET IT WOOH!”
Felix:
“Fuck it. Let’s go make brownies!”
Felix doesn’t give a flying fuck. I mean yes, education is important but if he sees you breaking down because of a few assignments that won’t matter in 10 years, he’s going to do the one thing he knows he can do to (temporarily) distract you; making you food!
So he’d probably ask you to come bake with him do you can clear your mind, and then he’d try to coax you back into working (because he doesn’t want his baby to be sad because they didn’t do an assignment 🙃)
“Good brownies right? Well, now let’s see if you have enough energy to finish that project! I can proof read anything you want.”
Seungmin:
“Honey, why don’t I try to teach it to you? I remember learning this.”
Tutor Minnie!! Baby wants to help you with your homework as much as possible. He’d probably be able to help you a LOT which you are absolutely greatful for. He’s not doing any of the work for you; of course he wants to transfer all of your stress to him but he knows that you learning the content would be more beneficial for you than him just doing it without explaining anything. So he’d sit there for HOURS if needed, all to help you understand your school content. He’d praise you for getting things correct/learning the concept
“It’s okay, it’s not an easy concept. Let’s go get a snack and we’ll come back to it okay? I can explain it in another way.”
I.N:
Honestly at first I had no idea how he’d react
Jeongin would feel terrible. It hasn’t been long since he was sitting at his desk all day cramming for exams; he remembers all of the breakdowns and sleepless nights. He hated how it effected him and he hates seeing the same thing happening to you. So he’d probably take care of you the way he wished he took care of himself; forcing you to take at least a 5 min break every 30 min or so, making sure you’re hydrated and eating, helping you section off the content so you can focus on one topic every 30 min interval. He wouldn’t know exactly what to do but he knows that he just doesn’t want you to suffer because of school stress. So he will definitely spend a good chunk of his time getting you to relax
“You’ve been at it for 2 hours.. okay. Let’s go to the restaurant across the street. We’ll take the food to go and I can help you study while we eat”
———————————
Thank you once again for all of the requests! I’ll try my best to update multiple times a week so no one thinks I’m dead 😂
I’m sorry if this felt rushed... it’s been an interesting day 😅😅
Anon I hope you enjoyed!!
❤️❤️all the love to anyone reading this❤️❤️

Hey Kina!! any advice about the LSAT exam you could provide? I’m about to graduate as well, and I haven’t taken the LSAT yet QQ, I’m starting to study now and planning to take it August. I’m in Canada I’m hoping to get a response by December after I finish my application in Oct.
LG and reading comp. literally traumatize me with the time limit and I feel so burnt out whenever I look at the books and plan my time for how many hours i need to study a week. I’m only really only a week in and my head pounds.
I would really appreciate the advice! I’m an absolute fan of all of your stories, i don’t know how you manage to juggle writing with school and upcoming graduation, what a god 🤯
you give me too much credit but hell yes I have advice regarding the LSAT. That exam is really something and it feels like I’ve went to hell and back so I’m happy to help others however I can with it.
I’ll break this answer down with my experience and then my recommendation.
Experience: I started studying for the LSAT six months before I took it. I went in completely blind and started with practice test LSAT 40 and scored about 143. ofc I timed it. When you take the practice exams, you have to simulate actual testing conditions as best as you can, so that means printing it out and doing it with the timing restrictions. The first 3 LSAT tests I did I scored in the 140s.
I gradually improved and hit the 150s range. At first I did the entire test in one sitting (with breaks ofc) but it’s so time consuming that I started just doing one section a day. But on Saturdays, I did one entire practice test and on Sundays I would mark that + go through it. So on average, I did 2 practice tests a week.
But then disaster struck when I was stuck in the 150s.
From practice LSAT 43-70 no matter how much I went through it, how much I studied, I could not break into the 160s that I needed. At best I could maybe get 159, but typically I was scoring 155. Which clearly isn’t enough. I started to panic. I knew I needed to do something different.
So I picked up The Loophole by Ellen Cassidy. During that time, I didn’t do any practice tests whatsoever. I stopped doing LSAT and went through the book a chapter a day. And while it’s focused in LR, a few chapters really helped me out with reading comp. I think there’s 14 chapters (if I remember correctly) so it took me around 2 weeks to go through it. Maybe I should’ve slowed down but I was running out of time. But the book helped me break into the 160s. I loved it.
I was pretty happy and relieved and from LSAT 70ish-89, I was scoring from 160-169 with an average of 164.
COVID was a thing by then so the LSAT was online. I had saved the two practice tests they have online and practiced with those and when the day came, I did it in a quiet space without any interruption. I ended up with a 160.
A bit of a bummer considering I was scoring 164 consistently before that but it’s good enough, I can’t really complain. I decided not to re-take it.
Recommendation: Honestly if I had to recommend to someone how to approach the LSAT, I’d tell them to take the first 3 LSAT practice tests blind w/o any knowledge of what it is and without any prior textbook reading. Learn by doing it and get the gist of what it’s about.
After the first 3 LSAT practice tests, pick up The LSAT Trainer by Mike Kim. I don’t have experience with it personally but I’ve heard great things about it from others. ((For me - I thought I didn’t need textbooks and I could study completely on my own but that was very dumb. I honestly wish I had more time, I would’ve picked this book up + the Loophole sooner)).
After completing The LSAT trainer (try to do it in a month? to not waste time? if possible). Then do a few more LSAT practice tests. I’d say 5 of them?
After that, pick up The Loophole. Do that within a month. Then just keep rolling with the LSAT practice tests.
The most recent practice test released is your holy grail. That will be the test most similar to the actual test you will receive so make sure you save that one but make it one of your last tests. For me that was LSAT 89 (or 90?) but there might’ve been newer ones by now. There’s no point in studying LSAT 1-39 because they’re so old that it won’t be that similar to what you’ll take.
ALTERNATIVELY - Sign up for 7sage. I know loooots of people do that. Don’t really know how it works since I haven’t used it but it’s advantageous if your LSAT will be online since 7sage is also online.
I’d still pick up those two books I mentioned above tho.
Other Recommendations - LSAT is sooo time consuming that your whole day is basically consumed by it. Not to mention you have to mark it and learn your mistakes afterwards. Look into doing a timed section a day? That’s only 35 mins so it becomes wayyy more manageable.
Also take marking very seriously. You learn just as much from what you did right and wrong as actually doing the timed section.
Another note, make a whole schedule to manage yourself. I made a google document on what I was going to do every single day. What section. What practice exam. What chapter of what textbook. Plan it all and then by the end when you have the plan, you’ll feel a lot more comforted. Like wow it’s not thatttt much + as long as I follow through with this and do a little a day, I’ll make it.
One more thing - take the exam when you start consistently scoring what you want to score. If you want to score in the 160s and you’ve been hitting that mark for the past 5-10 exams, you are probably ready. If you study too much, that’s a bad thing too. You want that sweet spot timing before you’re burnt out.
Also take breaks. Schedule them in. One day breaks. It’s easy to be burnt out.
((I got most of my practice tests for free btw on b-ok.cc)).
Now I’ll be a bit more specific in my advice....
LR - The Loophole helped me a lot with LR. Also I did a lot of LR practice questions and I naturally started to pick up on patterns. But this section fluctuated a lot for me. Sometimes I did well, sometimes I did poorly.
underline the ones you’re unsure about and move on. it’s better to just go back if you have time in the end then wasting time dwelling on it when you could be getting others right.
Reading Comp - At the beginning I fluctuated a lot with this section. But the first chapter of the Loophole really helped me improve and break down readings. The sentences in reading comps are very long winded and purposely written poorly, so keep that in mind. Just read slowly and soak in as much as you can the first time. I was never a fan of the advice of reading it over twice. It felt like a waste of time. Instead, the first time, as you read, try to guess what might be important or a question and underline it. That helped me.
Games - My favourite section and the section that you can most easily improve on. Just do a lot of practice games and then watch the videos on how others do it. Once you master a game style, you’ll know how to replicate it in the future.
for some reason timing started to become an issue for me later on in the games section in spite of having improved on it, but I realized it was because I was dwelling and double checking when I didn’t need to.
In general: LSAT is a super interesting test as it’s unlike any other test. It’s not dependent on information that you’re supposed to know. It’s not studying info and being asked questions on it. It’s not regurgitation. It’s not memorization. And in that way, ANYONE can improve. It’s a test you can learn. So don’t lose hope!!
And good luck!
((edit - some things I forgot to mention. I tried to pick up Powerscore but their system was so complicated, I zoned out. some folks like the book tho. I’d still recommend the Loophole. also I hope this doesn’t make me seem like a know it all and that this is wayyyy too difficult - I literally started crying once while taking a timed exam. the test is stressful so its ok its understandable to have a breakdown. i sure did lol. so give yourself a break if you start getting stressed.))

Miss Missing You (Life Update)
Ahem yes that’s the title of this post
Boy am I tired and exhausted being awake since 5 am on 5 hours of sleep
Hello~🥰 all my lovelies who are still awake and chugging along out in this world that’s slowly descending into the depths of hell (it’s ok guys, just a little more than 3 months and it’ll be over...hopefully). I hope you’ve all been well, taking care of yourselves, drinking lots of water, and reminding yourself how amazing and wonderful you are and why you deserve to wake up every morning. And if you started school again, stay safe and good luck, I know you can do it, push through this
Before I say anything, I wanna say hi and welcome to the - holy crap - 300 more followers I’ve gotten since I started being inactive. I have no idea how you found this blog since it’s been radio silence, but thank you~ Enjoy your stay~
Also just a casual shout out to @mister-future for the reblog spam a few days ago, thank you so much dear 😘
Aaaaand I’m plugging a few events from my Discord server, POC Week that just wrapped up and a new Fantasy Week event where they’re still looking for a few writers to join in, so go check those out if you’re interested~ Sadly I won’t be participating, but I give all my love and support for both so please show them some love too.
Now you’re probably wondering or not “Chibi, where have you been?! It’s been nearly a month! You promised us Kiss of Death part 2!”
Well...see... the thing is... I don’t think I’ll be writing part 2... Hold the rotten tomatoes, let me finish!
Some of you might’ve seen from one of the last tag posts I did, but I never really made a formal announcement for this and I was meaning to do one early a month ago but life caught up to me and here we are. It’s not that big of a deal or anything, I’m not dying, I’m not moving, nothing like that. What I’m trying to say is in August I started PA school, which is basically about 70% of med school crammed into 2 years. Nonstop, no long breaks, even taking classes during summer. And as you can imagine, it’s a lot of work. Many times, my schedule has me up at 5 am, class at 7 until 3, I come home, study, eat, study, shower, wind down for 30 min or so and then sleep. On average, I sleep for ~6 hours a night and the entire rest of my day I’m studying. My only break days are Friday and Saturday, and Sunday I have to play catch up from the week and review/study. I have at least 1-2 exams every single week.
What I’m trying to say is it’s a lot, it’s a commitment I decided to take where I trade my social life and maybe my mental stability for 2 years and get a hopefully secure medical job with a nice salary and never have to go to school again. I thought I’d have time at least on the weekends to write as a mental break, but most of my Saturdays are spent taking half-day long naps. I didn’t anticipate that the mental and physical toll it would take on me would be this much. Today I was lucky to have class finish early and I finished my allotted studying early enough for me to make up for my lost sleep (I’m tired right now, can’t you tell how by how much I’m rambling? lol), but I told myself, “If you don’t write this now, you’re never gonna get to it again.” So here I am~ Running on fumes and almost falling asleep at my keyboard because I know I owe you an explanation.
Point is, writing isn’t really in my agenda right now. It can’t fit in my irregular, constantly-changing-yet-consistently-stressful PA school schedule. I wish I had the energy to pull myself together and give you guys something once a week, but my body and my mind can’t do it, and for that I’m truly sorry. I really miss this blog and writing and all of you, but I have priorities that go above it for now.
Am I saying you won’t be seeing anything of me until December? It’s a very likely possibility. I’m crossing my fingers that I can put out something, even a little thing sometime in between, but for now I think it’s safe to say I’m out of commission until December. I really hope you guys understand 🙏🏼
I love you all so much, thank you for sticking with me through the long update/announcement. Please stay safe and healthy, remember that you’re loved and you deserve the whole world, and there is no one else who can replace you 💖
~Chibi

Gifs credit to owners !
Chan :
You and Chan are in a secret relationship since the last six months. You met because JYP hired you to work wih 3racha for Stray Kids’s new album. Chan and you talks about mutual feelings after two weeks and both are agree to keep this a secret for both compagny and members before this begin to be serious. Well, you began to be but for this moment, you two are a secret and, unfortunally for Chan, you’re a biiiig teaser. Even more now, because you say « i love you » to each other for the first time one month ago. And, to be honest, the whole secret situation thing kind of turn you both on.
So, with your job, you are really often in the 3racha’s studio with Jisung and Changbin and one day, you really wanting to tease your boyfriend. The four of you are siting on the couch’s studio in this order : you, Chan, Jisung and Changbin, working on tablature and lyrics on the table in front of all of you. At a moment, Changbin was writing something while talking, Jisung was speaking to him, his back half facing Chan, so you give your boyfriend a big peck on his lips, while making it as soundless as possible. He turns freeze.
« _ So Chan, what do you think about incorporate some spanich here ? It’s gonna match the rythm more than english or korean i think. » Then you flowing to seems less suspicious.
_ Where do you want to put it, Y/N ? » Asks Jisung while bending over the paper on the table in front of Chan. « Hyung ? Are you okay ? » The younger asks to his non-talking hyung.
_ Hum ? Oh yeah yeah, i am. What are we talking about ? »
Jisung talks but Chan didn’t listen to him, just sigh at your winning face.
Minho (non idol!) :
All the kids were silent when you step in the classroom. Some of them lift their heads to look quickly at you before getting to their test again. It was the last test of their highschool year, the famous Suneung. Minho smiles at you while sitting at the desk at the end of the classroom, grabbing the coffee cup you take for him.
You two were teachers in this highschool and also, a couple. But you keep it secret for the students because they doesn’t need to know your personal lifes. In fact, only the headmaster knew about it and he’s not really a fan of it because he’s concerned about the good relationship if you break up one day. Well, you are now married for a year so… it’s quite unlikely.
You were on the monitoring team for the maths exam this time, the two of you being at each corner of the classroom : you at the front, Minho at the end. So, when you give him the coffee, you put a little peck on his lips, knowing that all the students turning their backs at you. Minho were shocked before throwing you a dark look and a disapproval face.
You just give him a questionable look, like « i did nothing why are you looking at me like that ? » and walks to the front desk, can’t resist to have a little smirk on your face.
Changbin :
As usual, Changbin is sleeping when you’re doing his make up and hair. The room was really quiet because half of the Stray Kids members are asleep, during their make up or just waiting on the couch. Nobody really paid attention to everybody. Unlike the habits, you were on time on the planning so no did to rush. Gently, you’re applied eyeshadows on Changbin, can’t stand but looking deeply in love with your boyfriend. You two are still a secret, even between the members so you can’t be touchy with him all the time. But you can be on purpose while doing his make up.
Next to you were your colleague doing Minho’s make up, in the arms of Morpheus too. They excused us and leaving to the bathroom, making you the only staff member at the beauty tables.
With a quick glance, you check if anyone looks at you (spoiler : no one did) and you quickly kiss Changbin, who just startled, eyes wide open.
« _Y/N, what are you doing ? » He whispers while you’re back at your beauty supplies, faking choosing a brush.
_ Nothing, what are you talking about ? Go back to sleep ».
Hyunjin :
You are in the Stray Kids’s dorm for the annual video games tournament and Hyunjin, your boyfriend, is eager to beat you at Mario Kart, because he never did. The living room is a fucking mess, full of yelling and foot tapping everytime something happenned in the game. Rapidly, all of the Stray Kids member got eliminated, remains you and Hyunjin. Everything like relationship, love and other sweets things is gone between you : only victory remains. At this point, you are really perfect for each other. Chan makes the two of you checking hands and wishing each other good luck (« _ you better need luck, looser / _ watch me ») and, joysticks in hands, the first run begins. When the last one begins (the famous rainbow run), you’re winning 2:1 and no way you gonna gave him a tie. Especially because it’s almost 1am and the members got tired (Jeongin, Seungmin, Felix and Changbin are already in bed. Such loosers, you think). Only remains Jisung, Chan and Minho but they’re not focused on the game like earlier. Jisung just try to not fall asleep on the couch next to you, Chan is working on the floor and Minho, sating on the floor as well, just looking at some cats videos. So, for the sake of the members, you need victory, of course. For the sake of the members and, obviously, to tease your boyfriend until forever.
So, it’s the last ride, the last bend before the final line, Hyunjin is second but really close to your first ass. So you need to employ your final weapon. When you two finished the last bend and it’s just remain the straight line before final line, you crashed on Hyunjin’s mouse to kiss him so deeply the poor boy drop his joystick on his lap. You free your innocent boyfriend only when you ear the wining music. Hyunjin looks at you, panting and red, while you jump on your feets and give him a winning dance.
« _Hum… Oh ! What’s happen ? Y/N finally win ? » Jisung says, wake up by your victory celebration.
_ Yes ! Call me the master of games ! And i’m hungry now, so the winner gonna steal all your fridge’s food ! » You say as you walk into their kitchen.
Chan just smile and giggle before focus on his laptop, Minho follows you (but still looking at cats pictures or videos), Jisung gets up of the couch to go to his bed and Hyunjin is still shock, don’t know if he reveals your cheating move or not.
Jisung (non idol!) :
You and Jisung are dating for two years and he gets used to your non PDA, even if he loves this kind of attention. So in public, he loves to tease you with holding hands, hugs and stuff like that because you get embarassed right away and he laughs a lot about that. One day, in the summer, you two takes a walk in a park when you decide to buy ice cream. You choose rapsberry and him chocolate, then you decide to sit on a bunch to enjoy it. The park was quite empty, even more where you are. As usual, Jisung teases you a lot, with tickles this time. Half laughing, half out of breath, you ask him to stop because you are afraid to drop your ice cream. And nothing is more important than food (even more when you paid for it). In a last laugh, he obeys and a sweet silence sets up between you two. Jisung contemplate the small wind in the trees with a absent look, while liking his ice cream. Obsiously, this dummy gets a small account of it on the corner of this mouth and doesn’t seems to care or to know. However, you finised your ice cream and begin to move close to your boyfriend. Quickly, you kiss him to get a taste of his dessert before get back to your inital sitting on the bench. Jisung startles a little and blinks several times while looking at you before open his mouth. But you are quicker that him.
« _ Where do you want to go after, babe ? I want to drink something ». You say casually.
Felix :
It’s been 7 years that you’re dating Felix. Fans knows about your couple, obviously and you receiving nothing but endless amount of love. Stray Kids was still a thing, even if all the members have a solo career. You, in an other end, are in their staff member (in the sound team to be specific). This day was the day of a countless solo concert for Stray Kids, an important one because this is the first together since a long time. Felix was stressed as fuck. Be as serious as he’s always be, you see him dancing and lipsyncing everytime he could before the concert begins. You can’t talk to him as much as you want because you were so overworked with all the soundchecks to make that you barely can’t talk with anybody but your crew members. You know he knows his job, he’s doing it since a long time, his korean is better than ever, etc. but you see him nervous and you can’t but want to hug and confort him, cause you’re an amazing signifiant other (and i guess… a normal one ?).
Two hours later, it’s the rush, the concert begins in like 2 min so all the last things to test are testing. Stray Kids planned to appears on the stage with a rising launch pad so all of them were crouching on it, stylists, make up artists and all the staff checking them a last time. As well, you’re doing their check ups and keep your boyfriend for the end. He smiled absent-minded at you, while you reached for his mic. In the same movement, you give him a long kiss, hoping to give him all the strength you wanted to gave him. You knew no one gonna watch you because they know your relationship (and you were right, no one gave attention to you). Even if he startles a little bit, Felix respond to your kiss with eager but you have to break it and get out of the launch pad because all the signals for the concert’s debut are ringing.
« _Thank you for the help babe ! », Felix sceams at you while the launch pad are rising, above all the fans’ screams, the electronic mess and the staff’s bustle around you, the flashs and the artificial smoke.
_ I don’t know what you’re talking about ! ». You reply to him with smile and irony.
Seungmin (non idol!) :
You and Seungmin were bestfriends since middle school and the first year of high school, he began to have a crush on you. But he also don’t want to ruin your friendship so here we are, last year of highschool and a poor boy deeply in love (but that he don’t know, it’s that you are deeply in love with him too but you say nothing for the same reason).
One day, he was at the school library, searching for a book in the shelves, deeply concentrated. He don’t catch you getting at his side. He was so cute, pouting that you can’t but putting a little peck on his lips. Seungmin jumps really high, shallows a gasp and looks at you like you are ghost.
« _ Y/N ! What are you doing in the school’s library ? » He whispers, trying to hide his happiness wih admonition.
_ Just looking for books. Oh, it’s the one i search ! Meet me at the usual table to study ! » You say, smiling at him and turning away, leaving the poor boy really shocked.
Jeongin :
Jeongin was stressed, you can see that like the nose in the middle of the face. His ears were red like a tomato and he can’t but bit his nails, almost at blood. You glance at him quickly, before reporting you eyes on the road, turning the wheel.
« _ Are you okay dear?
_ Hum? Oh yeah, Y/N, i’m okay, don’t worry.
_ Honey, I know you and it’s like I’m driving you to the purgatory. Come on, tell me what’s wrong.
_ Really it’s okay, I…. I’m just afraid your family doesn’t like me. »
You were dating Jeongin for 2 years now and this night is the night you finally introduced him to your family (parents, siblings, aunts and uncles, grands-parents) and the poor baby is really stressing up. You are also a foreigner and this is the first time he travelled to your country.
« _ Don’t worry, I tell them about you and they already love you! How can they not? You’re the sweetest person I know.
_ I… I just don’t want to messed up. You’re important to me and I don’t want to make mistakes! Like, what if I struggle speaking your native langage and I end up insulting someone?
_ Baby, trust yourself! You are basically fluent! And don’t worry, they gonna be nice about it. »
To appease him, you put one of your hands on his knees. Jeongin looks at you and smile, locking your fingers.
The dinner happens to be really good ; your family were really nice to Jeongin, even if you can tell the boy is not fully at ease yet. While the table is cleaned up and the chairs’s empty, you called him.
« _Honey?
_ Yes? » He said, turning his head to you.
You catch his lips and you feel him being breathless but he can’t returned the liss because you’re already parting away.
« _You’re doing great.
_ Oh Jeongin, are you feeling alright ? You’re very red! » Your mother asks, just back in the living room with the coffee.
_ Oh yeah, don’t worry about him, he’s just a little hot. » You smile while catching the hands of your boyfriend under tha table and squeeze it.

Hi, i hope you are feeling good! Im better than yesterday so i can finally answer you. First of all: i am so happy that you shared your fanfiction! i had a great time reading it! Im always open for more recs. Maybe your all time favorites? Or if you know some good h/c these are always welcome :) And YESSS please send me a link to your fanvids. -- yeah 13rw was super cursed. haha i also watched season 1 but thankfully i was able to sto watching becaue i could feel it making me feel bad (1)
I agree the suicide scene was just cringe (but i think i remember reading somewhere that they cut it out? idk) and overall this show just gave me the feeling that there was no hope and things are always getting worse instead of better and i hated that. but enough of that cursed show. can i just say i really admire how open you are about your feelings (like being suicidal and that) i realy, really admire this about you. i have so much respect for you that you can just share your feelings here (2)
I have never heard of ace attorney but that story you described sounds really good. and i get reading sth that isnt good for you and still doing it (because im a dumb bitch too :D) -- okay i might accept that Root will never grow on you (but i thought so too and look at me now :D) but i havent fully given up yet :)-- yes thats the girl. i think it was really sweet when she said that to Shaw. and i think Shaw appreciated it that someone tried to figure her out instead of just writting her off (3)
Shaw is really cool and definately also a badass and in combination with John its just great! but you will have to suffer trough some Shoot. but maybe, maybe you will end up not hating Root. hope dies last (idk how the saying goes in english, sorry). -- Did you ever ship Caresse (in a romantic way)? cause sometimes i do and sometimes i dont and i get so confused about it :) but i think most of the time i like them more as friends. anyway her death really sucked and you are right with (4)
her death and them losing the library it felt like a different show (i mean i guess it was a different show then). i kinda get your feelings about the destroyed library because i also really loved it (and im really bad with change) but i dont think it affected me as much as you. but yeah i still missed the library very much. and while the subway is a really cool new place its not the same. (also the subway is super dark cause its underground and idk it just makes the whole thing less homey) (5)
Yes he is everything! such a great, interesting character and i wish there were more John-centric episodes! (like ones that explored his character more). that was one of my biggest dislikes of the later seasons that John wasnt featured as much anymore. i think he chuckled a few times in the show but a real laugh? i cant remember one :( -- He did promise Joss to talk to Tyler so @show were is that talk? -- if seen the vid its awesome! thehiddenmemory has some great poi vids! (6)
yes i think so too. Like Grace would probably be relived and thankful that Harold is still alive and maybe they would even try again but eventually she would figure out that she cant trust him after lying to him for so long or sth like that and Harold would ofc realize that he is in love with someone else now. And then he finds out that John is still alive but stayed away cause he didnt want to get in the way of Harold/Grace. But then Harold comes back. And when they meet again John is like (7)
you came back for the machine? what about Grace. But Harold tells him he came back for John not the machine and then they kiss and have a happy live with Bear (sorry i got a little carried away here :D). -- Yeah Zoe is really hot and she needed more screen time! -- i hope you have a good day and i hope i havent messed up the numbers on the asks! :)
Hi ! I'm finally free from the resits, I hope you're doing okay with your thesis 💛
Sorry for replying late, there was the exam resits, and I read a bunch of fics, then I fell into pokémon and started bingewatching it. (Also I had a breakdown during therapy today so I'm gonna finish writing my answer to distract myself - it's been sitting in my drafts for so long rip)
Thank you !! It was a very personal thing, I'm really happy you liked it !! Your support and your comment made me thrive 💛💛
Tbh I was surprised to see it get kudos given that the only intended audience was my self projecting ass 🤣
So, my fav fics (my fav fic ever is in French, rip to y'all bc it's so good):
I am, I am, I am by RavenWhitecastle
Actually check the entire series this work belongs to: The Sinner and the Saint. I haven't finished it yet but I love it (I just skipped the explicit fics bc I don't like smut or sub!John)

This is already fucking long omg so for the h/c: my bookmarks filtered with Rinch and h/c
Here's my playlist, it's mostly Rinch, but there are a few not Rinch vids, plus some scenes I like
This is long enough already, so it's time for a read more. Also, warning, we be talking about suicide
The portrayal of suicide is cringe most of the time anyway. If my suicidal ass can find a list of suicide methods and their lethality in 2 mins on Google you'd think writers who are supposed to do some research would be able to find them too but no they're like "ah yes slicing wrists" even though it's literally the shittiest method 🙄 (I just don't understand why slicing wrists seems to be such a popular method in the collective imagination ? It's weird.) At least in 13rw she took aspirin and cut herself vertically instead of horizontally but still, no hesitation wounds, and she dies even though she only got 4 wounds iirc ? I know more about jumping off bridges than slicing wrists, but it kinda sounds like bullshit to me. Also Netflix once suggested "beyond the reasons" to me, it's a sort of discussion with the cast and crew of 13rw and the only thing I remember is a moment of intellectual masturbation abt how they "opened a discussion abt suicide" 😬😬😬
They may have cut it out it's not impossible, idk I didn't hear about it, but it's not like I look for info about this dumpster fire lol. Maybe they faced backlash ? Wouldn't be surprised given how shit the show was. And yeah it has a hopeless vibe, I mean that's how it be when you're suicidal, but I didn't like it either.
You're sweet 💜💜 it's interesting that you find it respectable or admirable, I don't have an external point of view, so I'm just like 🤷 it is what it is. I understand where you're coming from though, I guess it's still quite a taboo subject, and suicidal people don't always feel comfortable talking about it, so me throwing around that I jumped off a bridge must be surprising. I'm detached enough from my suicide attempt that I'm able to talk about it without much of a problem, and I'm not really suicidal anymore.
Dumb bitches unite 👏👏👏 we be out there reading shit we shouldn't read
Yeah I think it's nice how the show didn't portray Shaw as a bad person for not having "normal feelings". Well, hope makes one live as we say in French (idk the English saying either lol) but don't hold much hope about me liking Root lmao
I used to ship careese bc they kissed in the crossing, but then I read some Rinch fics and I just ended up falling into it to the point where I stopped caring about careese. Now I think their relationship works better as a friendship.
Yeah all that change really puts me off... It just gives me "bad spin-off" vibes. Especially since there is less John :( and less Rinch :((((
Lmao yeah I just have a lot of feelings about early poi hgkfglrk. Also :/ I'm sad about the subway being less homey pls I just want happiness ?? I swear this show destroys my heart on top of owning my last braincell (brb changing my blog title to this lmao)
Mood I need all the John-centric eps, give me m o r e characterization and development and backstory and feelings hhhhhhh. I love him so much I just wanna spend more time with him. And that's what fics are for ! Yeah thehiddenmemory is so talented ! Astolat made some good ones too, on top of writing really good fics ! (Our fandom has been blessed with the presence of one of the ao3 founders hell yeah)
Also, remember how we talked abt the poi subreddit ? The other day I left a comment on there, wild I know. It wasn't a discussion about the last seasons though, I'm not crazy, it was about the impact poi had in our lives so I said it literally taught me English. Who knows maybe sometimes I'll comment again lol. I just don't wanna meet one of those people who prefer late poi over early poi.
Allow me to uuuuh write something based on what you said. Don't ask me how John survived with no major injuries, my man got that Thick Plot Armor alright. Hope you appreciate me getting carried away sjdkdksk it's kinda rushed and the first part isn't that good bc idk how to write Grace I'm just here for that sweet sweet Rinch stuff
Harold is eating breakfast with Grace in her kitchen – he can't think of her home as his home – when his phone vibrates. It's a text from the machine. It's a surprise, she barely contacted him since... He blocks the thoughts and the images coming to his mind. The machine sent him a picture. When he opens it, his heart misses a beat. Right here on his screen is a silhouette he thought he would never see again. His phone vibrates again. Another picture, this time it's unmistakably John, wearing his signature suit, Bear next to him. Transfixed, he stares at his phone until he feels Grace gently touching his arm. She goes straight to the point.
"Is it John ?" He looks up in confusion, but before he can say anything, she adds, "I hear you call him in your sleep every night."
"It's him, yes." He doesn't want to explain. He only wants to see John, to touch him, to tell him how much he loves him.
"You should go back to him. I like you, Harold. I am deeply relieved to see you alive. But I've been thinking, and... It's not working. This, us... You aren't really the man I fell in love with, the man I grieved... I can't trust you anymore." She doesn't say 'You lied to me' but Harold hears it all the same.
~
Harold sits on their bench. The machine indicated John often comes here. Soon enough, his arms are full of Bear, and John is standing in front of him.
"John. How are you ?" he asks when Bear finally calms down.
"Busy. And you ?"
Harold eyes him suspiciously – John once said he was busy when he was bleeding and way too close to death – but he seems to be well.
"I'm fine." He doesn't have time for awkward small talk." I thought you were dead. Why didn't you contact me ?"
"The machine told me you were with Grace. I thought you wanted to come back to your previous life. I didn't want to crash into it and ruin what you had."
Harold wants to be angry at him, but he understands. He did the same with Grace.
"You would never ruin anything. Besides, my relationship with Grace... didn't survive my lies. She's very dear to my heart, but she's a part of my previous life, as you said."
"So you came back for the machine, and the numbers, like the good old times ?"
Harold gets up from the bench.
"I came back for you. You are an important part of my life. The most important part."
John smiles, finally. He takes a step towards Harold, they're so close they could kiss. Harold reaches out, grips his shirt and slowly inches closer. He's still afraid of being rejected but John wraps his arm around him and kisses him. The kiss is over too soon. John's smile is even wider when they part.
"You're the most important part of my life too," he says before kissing Harold again. "You will stay ?"
"Always."
Damn I live for sappy Rinch stuff.
Bitches decided that Harold saying "always" is peak Rinch. It's me I'm bitches.
Also ofc I had to make a reference to number crunch, who do you think I am
Anyway. I hope you have a good day ! 💛

Hey! I applied to SLP grad school and hope to be accepted and start Fall 2020. I think you’re a 2nd year now?? What advice do you have?
Hi SLP anon!
Yes, I’m a second year (I struggle to believe that myself sometimes...eek!).
First of all, congrats on applying! I remember New Years Day being a big deadline for most of my applications, so I hope you’re all set with yours and can relax as best you can for a bit! :]
Experiences vary person to person and program to program, but I’ll give my advice...
1.) First of all, I hate to sound like a downer, but grad school is hard. Very hard. I started my program right after undergrad, and my undergrad was in Communication Sciences & Disorders, so you’d think I’d have an easier time, right? Nah, not really. Everyone struggles with some aspect of it. But the sooner you accept that it’s hard, the more pressure you take off of yourself.
2.) Going off of #1, be prepared to make mistakes, be wrong, tank an exam or a quiz (we’ve all been there...), get a lesson plan or report covered in feedback from your supervisor. It happens, and it happens to everyone. Literally, everyone. You aren’t destined to be a crappy clinician if you get tons of feedback on your treatment plans. Or if you can’t seem to get above a B- on exams in a certain class. When you make a mistake, learn from it, ask for help, and move forward.
3.) Go to your supervisor the second you don’t understand something. “Hey I don’t quite understand the feedback you gave me,” “hi I wanted to check in before/after my session today,” etc. One time I went to my supervisor’s office hours and said “I’m really anxious about doing (x) in my session today” and she talked me through my fears for 20 minutes. They are here to teach you-let them, if you need help.
4.) Clinical writing is not essay writing, creative writing, whatever you learned growing up or in college. It’s a skill that takes a while for people to master. And that’s okay.
5.) You will eventually get into the swing of things doing therapy. My first semester I was like 🙃🙃🙃🙃 right before every session, literally freaking out. My second semester I was walking in ~30 minutes before (instead of 90+ mins), getting what I needed, and spending the last 10 minutes chillin’ out. This feeling tends to reset every time you do a different practicum-I got anxious again at first during my time in the schools-but it goes away quicker the more clinical hours you have under your belt.
6.) Don’t tell yourself you can’t do something. I had next to no experience with kids before I started grad school, so I was pretty worried when I got my first pediatric clients... I ended up surprising myself. I love kids now. They’re genuine and eager to learn and so, so funny. Seriously, kids are hilarious. Make them laugh or let them make you laugh and you’ll instantly bond.
7.) Finally...Learn about burnout and compassion fatigue. Do not feel like a horrible person if you experience either or both of these things. We give a lot of ourselves to help others in this field... Sometimes we need to take a step back and think of ourselves. I struggled with guilt over compassion fatigue for so long, I wish I could tell myself what I know now about “putting your mask on before putting it on someone else” and all that seemingly-cheesy but very practical life advice.
Feel free to come off Anon and message me with more questions, and good luck!!

(1/2) i am very thankful for your words and it comforts me alot, it actually helped me, and i also cried, no jokes. i never actually shared with anyone, some of my friend in vietnam knows but since it just like happen regularly to me, and i told them that im fine and say it as a joke too:( and im very scared to share these so im gonna keep it. and i really need to hear those words, it encourages me alot, i just hope i will be fine even if i don’t pass the entrance exam. i tried studying today-🐧
(2/2) even though it is not for long, and i don’t concentrate into it, lack off after a few mins but i was able to sit at the desk and study some :”). i have a problem with concentrating and don’t know how to fix it D: but i still hope i will be fine if i don’t pass the entrance exam :’D. again, i am very thankful for your words, it encourages me alot, maybe this is what i need after all💘. i don’t deserve you at all, you’re so sweet honey bunny and have a great day, love you💕💕💕💕💕💕💕 - 🐧
✿ ✿ ✿
omg sweetpea, i’m so happy to hear that you were able to find comfort in my words 💕 i can’t do much at all, but i really hope you’re feeling a little bit better today 💓 it’s definitely terrifying to share your thoughts, insecurities, and feelings out there, and i’m touched that you felt comfortable and trusted me enough to talk to me about it 💗 i think i only told my two bestest friends about my own insecurities, and they really helped me out and offered reassurance and support when i needed it. if you decide to tell your friends one day, i think they’ll understand and listen to your worries seriously as well. i was afraid to do that at first, and i brushed it off, but they really did make me feel better afterwards 💜
i think you said that your current school offers high school as well? even if you don’t pass the exam, will you still be able to go to your current school? it’ll be okay, sweetheart 💗 you will be fine even if life throws you a curveball and it doesn’t go as planned, but there’s still another opportunity out there for you. that just means that it was wrong path for you at the time, and now, you’re one step closer to finding the right one! you’ll be okay 💛 and that’s great that you were able to study!!! you made progress today, and i’m super proud of you! 💝 i have trouble concentrating too, which is why i have to take breaks every thirty minutes or so and make sure to turn off my phone and put away any possible distractions when i study. you’ll be fine, sweetpea, and it’ll be okay 💚🤍 i’m so glad that my words are able to encourage you, and i wish you the bestest of luck on your studying and exams, honey bee!! 💞 you are the absolute sweetest, and i hope you have a wonderful day, too ily 🌙
