today has been horrible BUT buttercup finally ate something after like a month of refusing to eat so thats a relief

#the bin #that soujds bad if u dont know much about ball pythons but sometimes theyre just like that #unfortunately theres a lotbof vibrations and sounds in my apartment. like. a whole lot. not haloed by the fact my room is right across from #the pool area. specifically the shower. so i gotta deal with that noise a lot. and her tank is reeal close bc there is nowhere else for it #a lot of pall puthons really hate foot steps and vibrations and stuff. she esp hates them. the fact my upstairs neigbors stomp around #constantly and it mskes my floor shake im sure also stresses her out. im hoping she will be less stressed after moving since she wont have #to deal with that so much. #its been constantly stressing me out tho. and shes been pretty aggressive which makes sense. i havent been able to hold her bc she bites me #she never used to bite and i think she will go back to how she used to be. thats usually what ive heard when they arent eating but once they #start eating again they go back to being friendly. im so glad bc mann ive been having so many panic attacks worried that she might die #i knowbthat they often do go long periods without eating. its best for them not to but thats just how they are sometimes #but god. lady u gotta stop stressing me like this or IM gonna die of a heart attack or smth #i wish she woulda ate more but oh well. she always has trouble eating stuff bc shes kinda stupid and tries to eta the mice sideways #then theres baby who eat them so quickly and then asks for more and wont leave me alone about it. she so communicative its wild #at least i dont gittabstress abt wondering if she died or amth bc she pokes her hwad out to look at me all the time #shes so cute and perfect. they both are. god i love snakes

1. Hi! Can you help me look for this fic (cause its been months since the last time I read it) wherein WWX is LWJ’s husband and he is teaching in gusu wearing gusulan robes? I remember students likes wwx that one sect leader went to Cloud Recesses to insult wwx for seducing his son.

Btw, the fic includes photos of WWX wearing gusulan (white robes) (I think they got the image where Xiao Zhan was Shi Ying)

~*~

2. Hi! Can you help me find these 2 fics. Thank you very much

A) Twitter thread fic wherein nyancheng went to book signing of his fav author zewujun.  I remember after the book signing, lxc reach out his hand for handshake and when they shakehands, bolts were felt and they went into heat/rut. Apparently they are soulmates. Nyancheng was embarrassed because his ears and tails pop out due to heat. (I actually forgot lxc animal trait)

B) Modern Au where in wwx is in the airport with police and ambulance because apparently wwx plane went missing for 13 years (???). The people in the plane (including wwx) thought that they have been in the plane for few hours but outside the plane, its been years. Wwx didn’t even aged up while his family (including lwj) aged up

3. Hey! I hope you guys are doing great and resting in the midst of everything in life and updating this blog as well. Unfortunately, I fear I'm here to add to your burdens 😅

So I was looking for this fic. I remember it being set in the Canon era where Wei Wuxian is just extremely intelligent, and he goes on this  whole tirade about how he came to the conclusion concerning the waterborne abyss witht the use of talismanic theory in the library while Lan Wangji makes the charcoal for him to write and at the end Wangji is just so fascinated by Wuxian while the latter is like, "sorry for unloading that whole thing on you" kind of vibe. 

I can't seem to remember what the name is. I was looking for it in my history, and it's just so difficult when it's just that kne scene you remember. Do you suppose you could help my misery. Thank you in advance. @poetic-writes

4. Hi! I'm looking for a fic where wwx is a musician in university living in this huge dorm. He sometimes hears beautiful piano music (lwj) coming from somewhere in the building but he doesn't know where. They start to play music together and don't know each other's identities. They don't find out each other's identities until graduation or something. @its0nnetflix

6. hi! i was looking for an E rated sbwy gym fic where wwx thinks of him and lwj as really good gymbros. one point theyre at a smoothie(?) place where wwx says hes glad they started seeing each other (as friends) but lwj interprets it as romantic. jc had said wwx was feminine when theyre were 14 or smth and so wwx has a mild complex abt it. i rmbr wwx has an old flip phone and nhs makes a joke how wwx is rich enough to buy a new smartphone instead, also when lwj sends photos it takes forever to load in. i think lwj did soundtracks for movies too? and wwx mentions watching those movies for him. sry thats all i rmbr! i believe its possibly deleted, and if so does anyone have it downloaded?

#6 has been privated I think 😓

7. For the next fic finder I was wondering if you could help me find two specific Hogwarts AUs?

- Moved to a YiZhan FF/ITMF post

The second one is really vague and I’m sorry for that but I remember a WangXian fic where Wei Wuxian is part Veela and maybe he’s a Slytherin or Hufflepuff? I can’t seem to remember anything else besides there being a focus on Wei Wuxian’s volatile nature and battle prowess due to his Veela blood. He may have also killed a guy, or at least severely harmed some guy in self defense. I loved their world building and I’m so upset that I’ve lost both of them. Thank you for the help in advance.

8. Hey! Been following for a while and enjoying all the finders and recs from this page!

I have a request though, I'm trying to look for this fiction where wei ying is a general (i think) and lan zhan is a dragon, and there's a war between all sect, with the lans, the nie, and wen on one side, against the jin and jiang on the other. There's also animal shifters among the gentry where I think the jiang might be water birds?? I can't quite remember. The jiang and Jin end up defeated and the others win. Wei ying.is also a genius tactician and is respected by the other side of the war. I can't remember the name of the fiction and I'm desperate to find it. I think it's a completed fic too

Many thanks if you find it! (And could you tag me so I definitely see the post this request shows up if its found?? I forget things easily) @elderredraccoon​

9. Hi! I'm looking for a WangXian fic where WWX and LWJ go back in time but WWX goes back a very long time before his birth. He holes up in the Burial Mounds and becomes notorious as the YLLZ. He's also pretty depressed I think? When WWX realizes that LWJ is born he storms into the Cloud Recesses and demands LWJ's hand in marriage -- LWJ is only 12 (I think) at this point and LQR and LXC are horrified but LWJ agrees without their input (he still has his original memories). WWX starts out just treating LWJ like a child he's very fond of but when LWJ gets older and becomes an adult, they resume a sexual relationship and I think WWX comments on how they're slowly shifting their dynamics from Kind Mentor WWX/Young Mentee LWJ to Bratty Bubbly WWX/Calm Dominant LWJ. I remember really liking this fic but I don't remember what any of its tags were or whether it was a single fic or a series of one shots etc etc. I would appreciate the help! @sssrha​

10. Looking for a fic, please help! the wens had won the war years ago. I only remember a scene where lan wangji and the juniors were in a shop or restaurant of some sort and wen xu comes in and intimidates lan wangji to where the juniors defend him. He thanks them later saying it’s hard for him to deal with wen xu. (he had lan wangji in captivity during the war, lan wangji still has Nightmares about it). I don’t remember where wei ying is or if he “died”. Thanks!!!!

11. Hello! I'm looking for 2 fics that I have wanted to rec on ITMFs so many times but just can't find! Both are canon divergent, not modern au.

A) it is a sort of eldritch wwx. He was eaten by a demon that like. Consumed his memories and wanted to be wwx? And then he gets back to sunshot, vomits up wen chaos teeth, has sex with lan zhan and also eats cows whole? Its a good one!

B) this one I remember just one scene. It is post sun shot, a confrontation at the jin banquet with yllz wwx. Yu Ziyuan is alive and checks his core in public and realizes he is coreless (i really think its her! But maybe someone else...). This might have been schemed by wen qing? Fix it after this point i think. @absurdlyadmiredarmchair​

13. Hi 

Firstly, I want to say thank you, this blog is awesome, and I have found so many good Fics to read as well as find ones that I have lost or forgot to bookmark. 

Secondly, I would like help to find a fic, from what I remember Wei Ying was drunk on the rooftop when someone approached. In his drunken state, he thinks it was Lan Wangji that showed up so he goes on saying things like are you here to punish me again. He also asks why Lan Wangji hates him so much, but the whole entire time it was actually Lan Xichen he was talking to. I think it takes place after he got punished for drinking in Cloud Recess, and then something happens and he almost falls off the roof but Lan Xichen catches him. Lan Wangji had apparently witnessed the whole thing and tried to apologize but Lan Xichen coldly tells him the apology should be given to Wei Ying instead when he wakes up. 

Again, thank you so much in advance.

14. Hi 👋,  for the next fic finder - im trying to find a fic i saw awhile back. I cant remember too clearly but i think lwj got separated from the lan clan when he was young and found himself in a brothel.

18. So I’m looking for a specific fic that I know is on ao3, can’t remember the name of the story nor the author though.

And that’s after looking through my history on ao3 for over an hour.

All I really remember from it was that it was short, like one to ten chapters long.

(And yes I do consider 10 chapters short)

It took place in cloud recess study arc, jiang Cheng punched or got into a physical fight with Jin Zixuan, in the classroom if I remember correctly.

Wei wuxian was injured. Somehow, story could be after the waterborne abyss.

Oh and the Jiangs asking WWX why he didn’t defend Yanli. Despite the fact he’s injured on the floor. @ravenwithwings​

Unlikely Friendship-Child's Play (1988) and Stranger Things Crossover

Warnings: Crossover AU, many apects of the ending of Stranger Things season 4 were ignored for this. Eddie Munson moves to Chicago and gets adopted by meets the Barclays. Background Eddie x Reader (reader is named). Happy fic with an A Nightmare On Elm Street-like open ending.

Summary: Little Andy Barclay develops a peculiar fascination when he meets the boyfriend of his substitute babysitter, a neigbor from his building that keeps an eye on him whenever Maggie is unavailable. His mother is highly skeptical of him due to his strange attitude and threatening appearance, but Eddie's kindness of heart would end up surprising her.

Notes: The name I picked for the reader (Lily) i did because I wanted a flower name to match with Maggie and I really like that one. Also, the flower represents a few things in her characterization and plot function. Not intending to make it even more of a self insert or anything

Tags: @losersclubisms

The neighbors of the building were for most living immersed in their own problems and Karen didn’t expect anyone to care for hers. Being a prideful woman herself, she wouldn’t have seeked any support networks among them. There was not much on their part besides some volatile offerings during small talk that often sounded more like charity than friendly help born from true involvement. A kind young girl on the down floor was the only exception, she had been babysitting Andy from time to time since the first moment she had to leave him for a job interview. The deal was arranged as a spontaneous thing meant to last just for that occasion, but it kept repeating sporadically. The little boy responded well to her and his adorable sweetness won her over, so she felt more than happy to help. As their bond became more stable Karen insisted on offering her payment almost every single time, but she would end up accepting only a minimal fraction attempting to show she truly cared for her family untill she would understand it.  

A cordial, reciprocal solidarity based friendship began to develop between both women. They were both struggling in their different ways, Lily didn’t have a good relationship with her mother and she would often come to her asking for advice on countless topics. From work problems to romantical advice, anything that would be floating around in her mind she would share it with her. Karen was quite concerned about the guy she was seeing, from the tales she heard he seemed quite eccentric and describing him like that would be an euphemism. It wouldn’t take much time for some of her guesses to be confirmed, since she got to meet him quite quickly as the relationship advanced. 

If she would have come across him on the streets, his threatening looks would have probably scared her. The long haired young man dressed in black leather and jeans carrying tons of jewelry with strange symbols didn’t inspire her much trust. Even less the first words she heard him say overhearing the couple talking before they noticed her and her boy coming in close to them.

“ I’m going to keep taking you home, babe. I have reasons to be worried, there is a maniac on the loose! Well, another one besides me, of course. “ He joked, making the girl chuckle. “ How long do you think it’s going to take for local metal bands to catch up on that? Every impactufll psycho eventually gets their song."

“ Until police would catch him, I hope. “ 

Their conversation got inmediately interrupted by Andy's pure excitement.

" Hi Lily!!!" He happyly saluted, quickly catching attention before his mother could say anything. " Nice to see you!!"

Her expression was brightfull for the cute surprise.

" Andy!!! How are you, darling?"

He was all smiles before replying.

" Good, doing all kinds of stuff. "

The curious eyes of the kid were fixated on the man beside her, his attention focused in his unusual appearance.

In the meantime, Karen followed with more kind salutes.

" Good evening, dear. Excuse us for the intrussion. "

The young neighbor was happy to see her.

" You are never intruders, i have wanted to do the presentations from quite some time. "

" I handle it from here, sweetheart. " The man followed her. " A pleasure to meet you, from all I have heard I guess you must be Karen. I'm Eddie, and i have the honor of dating this lovely lass."

Andy chuckled, the self introduction somehow reminded him of a Robin Hood he saw in a puppet show.

He once more spoke in advance

" Hi, Eddie! I'm Andy!!!"

Eddie responded while offering him a handshake.

" Nice to meet you, Andy!!"

There was no glimpse of fear in the boy, only a strange fascination. He was paying attention to all the details in his jewelery, specially the rings.

" Woooow! What's that?"

The kid had clearly pointed one of the skull shaped ones.

" Well, it's how all of us look from the inside. When we die, that's what's left. "

The answer was too disturbing and it weirded the mother.

" That's enough, honey. We are going home. "

As the small family followed its route, Eddie still intended to apologise.

" Sorry, Mrs Barclay! i'm not a big fan of lying to kids, I will try to be less terrifying next time."

It was hard for her to understand what was that girl seeing in him. The first awkard interaction didn't do much for his reputation, but she would notice her so in love and the whole thing was a mistery to her.

However, her son was another story. The strange man must have caused a great first impact in him, because he wouldn't stop talking about him. Everytime his neighbor would be babysitting him, he would ask her about Eddie. When was he coming to see her?, What was he doing? and Could he come to play? where some of the most usual ones. At one given time it occured to him that they could call him and she had to invent some excuse to avoid indulging him. During their next cassual encounter in the building the metalhead was carrying his guitar and the kid wouldn't let him be. He even attempted to beg his mother if they could invite him for dinner so he could show him his music.

When he saw him for the fourth time Andy came to him for a hug and asked him if he would be his friend. Eddie looked at Karen, bright smile in his face caused by the shocking reaction of the child, indirectly asking for her approbation before giving any answers.

She couldn't refuse, not when her son seemed so happy. That didn't mean she wouldn't bombard Lily with questions about her boyfriend. She already knew they have in the record store where he worked, only job Karen imagined that would have allowed him to keep that style. Admitting she was understanding of why she would find him a bit rough arround the edges, her neighbor promised he would surprise her if she would give him time. His kind heart and sense of humor had her infatuated since the first date, she had no doubt more people would be able to see the good in him.

Watching an instant on any of the interactions he had with the boy was enough to make one suspect there had to be more about him than what meets the eye. Eddie had managed to connect with Andy in such an unique form. He seemed to understand him in ways no one else in his close circle did, they somehow related to each other. His impressive, highly developed imagínation was doing great as a developmental stimulation source for the little boy either while telling stories or playing games. Karen saw it happening by herself on his first short visits coming to pick up Lily after the babysitting. The positive impact on her child slowly began to change her mind about him.

The definitive step that seiled a start of true bonding between them happened spontaneously and with a very strange timing.

It was the morning of Andy's sixth birthday and facing her son's dissapointment with the gifts she could buy for him had crushed her. She brought him clothes and the only Good Guy brand set of toys she could afford. An accessory playset, while he wanted the doll meant to go with it. A good while after the present unboxing Andy got the first birthday call of the day. Their happy couple of neighbors wanted to give their salutes early and Karen pretended not to hear the sadness in her boy's voice while telling Eddie about his presents.

Minutes afterwards they were at their doorstep and the smiling metalhead was carrying a huge wrapped box. Karen couldn't believe her eyes and the disbelief was evident. To the ' no way' in her expression, Eddie's complicit mischievousness seemed to confirm her it was, Indeed, very possible. The pridefull smile of his girlfriend showed it was probably his idea. She knew which presents the mother was planning to get for the kid and probably just commented to her boyfriend about it before deciding what they were going to do.

" Good Morning, Karen! Where is the birthday boy? I have this thing my princess has been hidding for him in her appartment."

Andy rushed to the sound of his voice, but remained skeptical to the sight of the package.

" We tricked you, little buddy!!! Do you think your mom was going to leave the big one in plain sight?" Eddie cheerfully encouraged him to approach, pretending he was carrying the box for Karen. " This is all an elaborated scheme to surprise you. The little one Karen gave you is ours, we were hidding hers all along. "

It was enough to get the kid excited again.

" Really? Woooow!!!"

" We have no idea of what's inside, but it's kind of heavy." The man followed, exaggerating with his mannerisms the effort of carrying the box to later support it at the floor level." Why don't you take a look for me?"

The three adults remained expectant and when the kid ripped off the paper mother and son were one in the surprise.

" A Good Guy, I know it!!" Andy cheered towards her. " I knew you would get me one!!!"

Karen gave a side look to Eddie while he played the fool, comical fake innocence almost getting a chuckle from her.

It was unbelievable, the excuse was so perfectly crafted that she had no time to object before he presented the doll in her name.

" A Good Guy doll for the nicest kid in the neighborhood. " Eddie spoke because Karen couldn't. " It fits, ríght? Your mom is a genius."

Andy glanced at him for an instant and smiled, then rushed to hug her.

" Ohh, mom. Thanks!!"

" You are welcome, honey. " She lovefully replied. " but you should also thank Eddie and Lily for helping me hide it. Without them, the surprise wouldn't have been so great. Don't you think?"

The boy nodded affirmatively and kissed her cheek before following her suggestion.

" Happy Birthday, buddy!!!" Eddie cheered while receiving him. " Aren't you excited to play now?

" Thanks, Eddie! Will you play with me?"

The metalhead didn't hesitate in reassuring him.

" Sure I will, we are going to play such cool story games that Good Guy Show will want to hire me to write for them."

The boy's eyes were open wide and the excitement accompanied him when he gave the girl her time to be hugged.

" Thank you, Lily, for my friends. " He sweetly said to her and she understood the phrase implied two different things.

Convinced of the tale they told him, he was thanking her for hidding the doll with her. However, in his childish way he also tried to thank her for bring Eddie into his life.

" You are welcome, sunshine. " She inmediately responded. " I love them too. "

A silent instant of shared smiles completed the moment, then she tried to create a good excuse to get him occupied so her boyfriend and the mother would have their needed space to talk.

" Hey, Andy! The box says your new best friend needs batteries. I have a singing rabbit plushie at home, so I know how this things work. Wanna follow me so we can power up your buddy?"

He happyly obbeyed, leaving Karen free to interrogate Eddie.

" So, you finally learned how to lie to kids … You didn't have to do this. How the hell did it occur to you? Do you know how fucking expensive that thing is?"

He tried to ignore the fact that hearing her swear was kind of shocking.

" Hell i know, but I was sure Andy would want it. Good Guy Show is all he talks about and the ads are everywhere."

The answer frustrated her, he would say that as if she wasn't already aware of that.

" Why couldn't you just wait untill I would get one for him? "

" He would have never ask you directly, he knows you can't afford it."

The ríght guess in his thought process felt a bit too personal. It was one of those moments where Karen felt as if the man would be trying to prove he knew Andy better than her even when that wasn't his intention.

" And how exactly did you got it?"

It was an important question he trully didn't want to answer, even less to her accusatory tone.

" A magician never reveals his secrets, just enjoy the magic."

She was not in the mood for more of his jokes.

" Eddie, I'm being serious. You are an adult and I shouldn't mess with your spending, but i'm older than you and I can't just allow you to commit this act of financial irresponsibility without having a say. "

She was showing true concern for him, so he was at least going to give him some of his reasons. Seeking to make her understand so he wouldn't have to explain more Eddie opened up to her like never before.

" Listen, Karen. I come from a trailer park in a small town forgotten by God in some corner of Indiana. My uncle took me in on his own and it was just the two of us against the entire fucking town. I know how your son feels, he just wants a nice toy and a friend to play with. Believe it or not, I understand your powerlessness too because i saw it happening while growing up. If i can make it better for another struggling family, one that by the way I really care a lot about, I'll do it even if I have to go broke for it."

It was then when she got to discover he trully had a heart of gold, the breaking surprise her neighbor prophetized.

" I'm so thankfull, but please take care of yourself. " She tenderly nagged him while approaching for a hug. " I promise I will find a way to repay you. "

" You don't have to, but if you insist, just think of me if Ozzy adds concert dates near here on his next tour. "

It was a joke, he chuckled to let her know he was just messing with her.

Her son and his girlfriend returned to find her kindly fixing the loose locks of his messy hair.

Andy was happyly showing his unboxed doll.

" Mommy, mommy!!! Come to see this!!! "

The three adults silently shared their relief for the accomplishment.

Andy wasn’t completely unaware of the implicit secrecy around him despite not being sure of its reason. It made his smile acquire a shade of mischievousness, wondering if there was another surprise. 

“ You tricked me again! ” He complained to the young man, slightly frustrated. “ How you do it?” 

Before he could get to answer, Karen did it for him. 

“ I invited him to your party, that’s the last surprise.” She announced, matter that was never discussed before. “ Lily can bring Eddie after work to play and have cake if that’s fine for them.” 

Trying the doll was the only thing that could have possibly redirected the kid’s excitement after getting to hear that. Fascinated as he was with its startup phrase introducing itself as Chucky, he encouraged every single one of them to talk to it. 

Chucky and Eddie were all he would be talking about for the rest of the day. Although his mom couldn’t be present for the occasion because work forced her to miss it, he would still comment on it with Maggie over and over. Best friend and coworker of Karen, she was his main babysitter and the most trustable emergency contact. Usually, the neighbor girl would come whenever she was unavailable.

They had met, so she was aware of her, but on the many times Andy would mention Eddie he referred to him as his friend and never specified he was the backup sitter’s boyfriend. In fact, the way he would speak of him didn’t differentiate him much from a child. Karen told her about the kind hearted lad showing up at her doorstep with the doll her son wanted, but the differential descriptions made her think she and Andy were talking of two different persons.

Opening the door for a threatening looking grownass man followed by his contrastingly sweet appearing girlfriend was not what she had in mind. 

The visits were initially unaware of the change and, since they were hoping to find Karen, seeing someone else confused them too.

" Sorry, wrong place. "Maggie said as soon as she saw him, almost shutting the door if she wouldn't have recognized the girl beside him. " Is this guy coming with you? Look, Lily. Karen isn't home because Walter forced her to take other shift to cover up for someone else. I have been warned Andy is waiting for a friend to show up, but i will be fine on my own dealing with the two kids. "

The couple shared a few chuckles, unsure of how they were going to explain the hilarious misunderstanding.

" Well, if you think so i'll pick him up at nine. "The girl responded, acting on purpose as if she would be leaving a kid at the birthday party of his little friend. " Have fun, Eddie! Listen to Maggie and don't get yourself in trouble."

He followed the joke pretending child like excitement.

Maggie got the message, but was still quite shocked.

" So, this is Eddie … If you would hear the way that kid talks of you, you would get why I was waiting for a child."

" My teachers used to say i'm one in spirit as some flattering, euphemistical replace for inmature as fuck. " He mocked himself, trying to overcome the awkwardness. " I guess I should let you judge by yourself. "

She rolled her eyes and let both in.

" No swearing in front of the boy. If I hear one curse word coming from Andy, I'm going to know he got it from you. "

He smiled and did a gallant reverence before stepping in.

" Worry not, Margareth, for I will keep the manners of a knight."

Lily chuckled as he guided her inside to later kiss her knucles and do the same for Maggie.

" Calm down, Shakespeare. " She mocked him in return. " Don't piss me off and we are going to be fine. "

" I could never not behave accordingly in the presence of such lovely ladies. " He insisted, sticking to the character for a little bit. " Margareth and Lily, the most beautifull flowers on the little prince's garden. "

She amusedly ignored the compliment.

" Andy, you friend is here!!!!"

In a matter of instants the presence of Eddie revolutioned the home. The quiet playtime of the little boy was over, since the energy of the metalhead would incentivate him to go nuts. It literally finished turning the situation into something closer to a birthday party, music incluided. Aware that Andy was super curious about his guitar, he would have preferred to play something by himself. However, since Karen just started to like him and he guessed that would be too much for her, he límited himself to bringing a mixtape with the most palatable music for a general audiencie that he owned. When questioned about it, he simply said there was nothing on it heavier than Metallica mixed with some radio friendly hard rock.

Maggie stopped caring for his strange excuses once she saw Andy jumping all over the place to Led Zeppelin's ' Rock and Roll ' while holding his doll so he could pretend it was doing the same. He was acting like a happy kid on a birthday should despite that was happening in a very unconventional way. In fact, she wished she could have videotaped it for Karen to see. The hairstyle of the doll was completely ruined during Andy's attempts of making it replicate the movements of Eddie, who would also try to encourage everyone else to join them.

She got more material for her self deprecating and ironical dating jokes. When asked about it she could say that at least part of her night involved being dragged to move by a twenty somethings and out of context it would work.

The calm part of it was still full of games that were more intense than what she would have expected from Andy's usual playing behavior. He tried to show Eddie the way that the Good Guy Show lore pre imagined for him to play with Chucky, but the man kept challenging it.

" We are going to think outside the box here, Andy, … literally speaking. " He was kindly explaining his point. " The Playpal guys say Chucky has only six options depending on the accesories we can buy for him, but he can be anything we want if we dare to imagine it and we don't need any more sets for that. "

Sat on the floor ríght next to him and in front of the doll, the kid was observing it as if he had the most amazing realization.

" But we have the construction worker set, what else can we make him be?" He asked in a wondering tone. " What do you think ?"

" I don't know, but we can have fun figuring out. " Eddie followed him. " For example, with that flaming red hair and the hammer, I believe he could be a dwarven blacksmith who craftes magical weapons and beautifull jewelery. "

The idea seemed appealing to the kid simply because he made it sound way cooler.

" Mom sells jewelery, Chucky can make it for her. " Andy agreed. " Don't you, Chucky?"

Following the whole thing while trying to keep a conversation with Maggie, Lily was undone from tenderness feeling as if her heart would be about to explode holding all that love for Eddie. She couldn't help excusing herself and do an Intervention to help him out.

" We can make him look more dwarvish, we just have to make some little changes."

She attempted to transform Chucky into a fantasy dwarf using one of her boyfriend's bracelets as necklace for the doll and adding the touch of one of the pending chains from his pants circling the hip to represent a belt.

" I will add a few cool dwarvish braids in his hair and that's it." She pridefully informed. " He would be ready for forge work or battle. "

" He still needs a battle axe, but that one comes in the fireman playset. " Eddie joked, still admiring the work. " Be carefull with that, babe. Braiding hair is a marriage proposal gesture in his culture. "

Andy seemed quite surprised and she pretended to follow him for an instant.

" Well, I can play as Chucky's bride. Surely he will not mind."

" Over my dead body!!!" Eddie exaggerated on purpose, making the kid laugh. " I'm going to challenge him to a duel for your hand. "

" Andy should decide who I should marry, it's his birthday and you are his friends. What do you say, birthday boy?"

" I don't want them to fight. " He sweetly admitted. " Friends shouldn't fight."

Maggie couldn't help bursting into laughter many times while watching the madness escalate. Eddie convinced Andy of enacting the duel, but it ended up as playfull fighting between them while Lily finished braiding Chucky's hair.

Some of the fictional escenarios they were collectively coming up with were hard to follow, so the woman eventually got bored and sat on the couch to watch tv.

" Pardon me, Margareth, but we are in the middle of a quest to destroy a dark wizard and you are ruining the ambience!!" Eddie complained at some point. " Are you sure you don't want to be the wise witch guiding us? I'm offering you the coolest role."

He made her chuckle, she couldn't pretend to be upset anymore despite she would still make him a target of her sarcasm.

" That sounds great, but i think the dark wizard can wait untill after the cake. "

Once Andy blew the candles surrounded by happy cheering and had a piece of his cake he began to feel tired from all the exciting playing. Noticing it as well, Eddie explained him that they didn't have to complete the quest all in once. Relieved and happy, the boy finished the day with some of the standard playing with the construction set and his Good Guy back in the classical look. In the meantime, Eddie insisted in helping Maggie clean to compensate her for all the chaos of the night.

Bedtime was near when the little boy delivered one last weird occurence.

" Aunt Maggie, Chucky wants to watch the nine o clock news."

She shared complicit glances with Eddie as he pilled up the clean dishes that had to be saved, initially thinking Andy's plead was some joke to ignore the bedtime and keep playing with him.

"Sure, he does."

Lily tried not to chuckle, feeling almost sure of what the thing was about.

The news presenter mentioned the Lakeshore Strangler, Eddie's most recent fixation. He obviously wasn't talking about that with Andy, but he must have been aware of that because her boyfriend was talking about it with her the same day the kid meet him.

"Don't worry, sweetie. He can watch the repetition at twelve. " She tranquilized him in sweet whispers as Maggie approached. " You should go to rest."

His aunt turned off the tv and picked him up in order to carry him to the bedroom, while the substitute sitter carried Chucky a similar way. The kid obediently proceeded to go brush his teeth in the bathroom, when the sudden bombing of tv sound freaked them out. 

Eddie was sitting on the couch, staring at them innocently like a child that tries to deny doing mischief. 

“ I’m done with the chores … Can I watch the news, Aunt Maggie?” He pleaded by himself. “ It’s very important, I wouldn’t ask it otherwise. They are on the case I’m following.” 

“ Again with that? “ Lily wondered out loud. “ Charles Lee Ray is dead. It 's over, love.” 

“ His accomplice has escaped. “ He summarized for her. “ Police get the right Eddie this time and they let him escape. Can you believe it?” 

“ Why is it such a big deal for you?” Maggie seriously asked him. “ The hell are you talking about?” 

Following the conversation and remaining attentive to the screen was hard, especially because one of the women was in front of it. He didn’t want to explain his full reasoning, but she was cornering him so he had to say something.

“ I know it sounds creepy and I’m a total freak, just don't get upset with Andy. He must think that the Strangler is to me what the Good Guy show is to him, that’s why he said that. I never spoke about it with him, I swear. He must have overheard me and he just wanted to be nice. “ 

“ If you say so, I won’t deny it: you are a freak.” Maggie simply stated. “ … but you make that kid happy so I guess I have to get used to it.”

“ Eddie is not a weirdo obsessed with a killer just because his partner in crime has his same name, he has valid reasons to feel the way he does. “ His girlfriend interrupted, sweetly approaching to sit beside him. “ There was a series of ritualistic murders happening in his old town and the people wrongfully targeted him and his friends just because they looked suspicious to them. When things seem to work out, he moves here trying to leave everything behind and some guy starts doing a similar thing. He was terrified of being targeted by the police all over again, he would be trying to hide it from me through silly dark jokes.” 

He was very thankful of not having to explain the situation himself, unsure of how to present it in a way that wouldn’t ruin things. 

“ I elaborated an exhaustive list of reasons proving I could never be the Strangler just in case they would come to interrogate me, if there was going to be a second time I wanted to be ready.” 

“ Holy shit, that’s terrible!” Maggie exclaimed, feeling truly sorry for him. “ I can’t imagine how horrible it would be to be blamed for a crime I didn’t commit. Did they eventually catch the guy?” 

“ I like to believe I helped to serve justice somehow.” He vaguely explained. “ Charles Lee Ray was the most faithful reflection of everything people said I was, I felt relieved when they identified him as the Lakeshore Strangler and I followed his case intensely because I wanted to feel sure cops weren’t fucking up again. The dude who was shot in a toy store last night wasn’t an unlucky scapegoat and nobody will be coming after me again saying I’m a killer for the way I dress, the game i play or the music I listen to.” 

Maggie stopped obstructing the screen. 

“ I was kind of a bitch to you, sorry for that. You may be weird, but I can tell you are a great guy.” 

The recognition got a genuine smile from him. 

“ No problem, I’m used to it.” 

“ I tell him all the time that I feel lucky to have him, but he says I’m insane.” Lily continued, seeking to cuddle from her position beside him. “ He is wonderful, maybe I’m a bit guilty of trying to make the world love him as much as I do.” 

He gave her a soft peck on the lips and they smiled at each other before he proceeded to share bits of their story. 

“ I love this woman from the very first moment she smiled at me after having asked me for the dullest hair metal record that she wanted to buy mostly for the power ballad single. She was so lovely, I became a mess and I couldn’t care less for my artistic principles. For her I ended up listening to that damn Whitesnake record during the in-between dates time, closing my eyes to think of her to Is This Love because I knew she loved that one and I was becoming a lovesick fool.” 

Their tenderness was very surprising to the woman observing them. 

“ Girl, I’m going to end up asking you for dating advice.” Maggie mocked them, that time with plenty of good intentions. “ Should I start attending metal concerts?” 

“ We are on the same page, I follow Karen’s. “ She honestly replied. “ Well, except for that one time I didn’t and I kept dating him.” 

The women chuckled and kept chatting, but he missed most of it because he got lost in his own thoughts while the heat of his girlfriend’s body was relaxing him. Eddie’s imagination was starting to connect the dots in many strange coincidences surrounding him and the story he intended to follow. Lee Ray and Caputo were partners in crime named exactly the same as Andy’s partners in playing. From the many names the Good Guys could have, the one he got for the kid was a Chucky and Chucky was short for Charles. The serial killer was shot by police in a toy store, last hideout resource when his friend abandoned him.

“ Hey, handsome. It’s your mind on the moon again?” Lily teased him sweetly, noticing he got very distracted. “ What’s wrong?”

“ I’m gonna write the song, babe … and I know what I’m going to do.” He revealed, with determination. “ I’m going to write about the killer from the point of view of his friend, and it's going to be wrapped in a metaphor about childhood. Andy just inspired it to me, you know? We have a Chucky and I’m an Eddie … that ‘ My best friend Chucky ’ thing. It 's perfect! “ 

“ What do you mean?” She stopped him before the rambling could escalate because she wanted to follow him. “ Slow down and share it.” 

“ Chucky IS Chucky.” He replicated with excitement. “ Chucky is short for Charles, so doll Chucky is my metaphor for dude Chucky and Eddie is his best buddy. Committing crimes is like playtime for them, until the police arrive. Waking up from the fantasy of their murder spree is like growing up. Eddie becomes aware of the consequences and trying to escape those he leaves Chucky behind to die in the fucking toy store like a forgotten toy. “ 

It was a bit too much, but she was quite impressed anyway. 

“ It’s … twisted, but brilliant! And you are going back to writing! That’s good, I’m just so happy that Andy managed to inspire you somehow.” 

“ Are you planning to launch your musical career with a lawsuit from Playpals? Because that’s what you are going to get. “ Maggie warned him. “ Just try to keep yourself out of trouble, allright?” 

The casual demonstration of concern was well received by him. 

“ Yes, Aunt Maggie!” 

They intended to stay until Karen would return, but Maggie told them over and over that she was going to be alright on her own and they didn’t have to. They were going to be in the building anyways, so if she needed anything she could just call them and they would be there for her. 

Lily seemed uneasy, there was something else her boyfriend hadn't discussed with her and coming down from all the excitement surrounding them once they were back in her apartment made her aware of it. 

“ Where did you get the doll, Eddie?” She questioned him. “ I had no money for it, as far as I know you didn’t have it … So where did it come from?” 

The ask was very rational, but at that point he would have preferred to avoid it.

“ Why does it matter? Andy is happy and Karen will not have to lose all her savings for it.” 

“ It matters to me because I’m afraid you could have endangered our friends “ 

She meant she feared he could be messing himself and others into something illegal and she had a point. 

“ It was alley money for a clean doll, alright? I got rid of the last shit I had left and with what I got from those sales I bought him a brand new doll from the store.” He finally confessed. “ I paid in cash so there is no way to track it, just don’t tell Karen. “ 

There was no inmediate reaction, but when it came, her reply was way deeper than a moral objection.

“ Andy told me something very curious today when we were unpacking the doll from the box.  I kept calling it his best friend because that’s the slogan of the brand, but he corrected me. He said Chucky is not his best friend, you are.” 

She held his hand holding back tears. 

“ If something happens to you, it would crush that kid. I want you to take care of yourself and I’m not even doing it for us, but for him. He already lost his dad, he can’t lose you in the most shitty way possible.” 

Eddie hugged her and began to caress her hair in a calming way. 

“ Easy, princess. it’s going to be ok, nothing bad will come to them or to us.” 

For once in his life, that seemed to be true. With some ups and downs, but things were working out. He had a day job that didn’t suck while he could still keep working on his music, a wonderful girlfriend and one more friendship with a kid bringing out the best of him. Aware of Andy’s frustration for wanting to get little friends of his age, Eddie was slowly starting to teach him how to socialize in the way of the weird kids. He would constantly tell him about his younger friend from Hawkins who had three friends to play with since many years before meeting him. In some ways, he could be blamed for talking too pridefully about Dustin presenting him and his experience as the horizon for lonely freaky kids. To be fair, he would also comment with excitement to Dustin about the baby steps the little boy was making from time to time on their phone calls. 

His first visit was an important event for everyone involved.By that point Andy had heard so many amazing stories about him that he hero worshiped Dustin despite the teenager was initially unaware of it. 

" You are completely sold to that cute little brat, it is unbelievable. " Dustin concluded in whispers after observing an interaction between his friend and the kid for the first time. " I finally understand how Steve felt when I befriended you. "

Andy couldn't hear the talk because he was distant enough from them searching for some thing he desperatedly wanted to show them.

" We are lucky he isn't here. He would loose his shit over how tiny and cute that kid is, Msrs Barclay would never get rid of him."

They laughed because of how accurate that sounded to both.

" Karen could use one more free babysitter. " Eddie concluded. " C'mon, Dustin! I can't believe you are jealous of a six year old kid. "

" Well, he says you are his best friend and i thought WE were best friends. "

They were just messing with each other, but he still wanted to give him a good reminder of how important their friendship was.

" I owe you everything, you are practically my little brother. "

Eddie hugged him ríght away and Dustin chuckled through it.

" Don't try to make me tear up!"

Briefly afterwards Andy returned proudly holding a piece of paper.

" I made this for you. " He explained to Dustin while handing him the paper. " … and your friends. "

A drawing, classical little kid present. The teenager managed to distunguish at least four human figures in it surrounded by strange shit that was coming after them.

He smiled, unsure of what to say, so Andy provided a clarification.

" It's you fighting the monsters with them."

" Did you told him about the Upside Down? " He asked to Eddie, midly panicking. " How much does he know? "

" Chill, Karen and Maggie think is just nice tales I tell him. " Eddie defended himself. " Andy knows you are a hero."

Without any gestural warning the little boy rushed to hug Dustin.

" I want to fight monsters with my friends like you. "

The kid managed to awake his sentimental fiber.

" I wish you and the friends you will make will never have to, Andy. "

They all were awaiting for more introductions to be made. Since Eddie was introducing Dustin, Andy wanted them to meet the very first friend he managed to make in school. Lily was in charge of bringing him in, acting as trusting sitter and bridge between both families.

Eddie was particularly excited about it, from all comments he had heard the child was an old school freak in the making. He was a loner with an interest in fantasy and a labelled troublemaker.

The first impression didn't dissapoint.

" Nice shirt." The kid complimented him ríght away, pointing at the Iron Maiden cover art in the shirt Eddie was wearing." Great taste. "

" Aren't you a bit young to know what this is?"

The questioning didn't bother him in the slightlest.

" Is she your girlfriend? "

" Yeah, she is. " Eddie confirmed. " She is Andy's sitter and i heard she will become yours soon too because everyone else has given up. "

He smiled at her, then replied.

" … I like her. "

" Well, Lily is lovely so I can't blame you. " The metalhead added before introducing himself. " it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Eddie. "

The boy was laughing, a bone chilling cackle that threw everybody off.

" What should I do with your Good Guy, sweetie?" Lily asked him, trying to overcome the awkward moment. " I wouldn't want to mix both by mistake, Andy has a Chucky too. "

[nerdnag]

this is an invitation to tell us all about your Barfies 🥺

My Barfies!!! Omg yes. I'll gladly tell you about them 🥹

They're called Lilla Fröet and Kott and they look like this!!

Lilla Fröet (also called Lillen) was a Christmas gift from my partner in 2012. His name means "the little seed" bc at the time me and my partner sometimes referred to each other as seeds that would eventually grow into flowers. (It was a way for us to deal with some rough stuff that was going on in our lives back then.) Also he's actually a wheat warmer so he kind of does contain seeds?

Lillen is extremely kind, but he's also a giggly mf and likes to do silly stuff/play harmless tricks on his friends. He's adventurous and loves to try new things, very open-minded and understanding. He's been there for me through a lot of hardships. His favorite music ever is the track "Danger! High Voltage" by Electric Six. If we put that on he HAS to dance. And then we ALL have to dance. Also, he has a precious collage of needles from various trees and bushes, which has been framed and hangs in our kitchen. (The collage can be pictured below.)

Then there's Kott, who joined us in 2016 after a random trip to IKEA. He's a hedgehog, which in Swedish is "igelkott", thus the name. Whereas Lillen is very calm and knows that things will always be OK in the end, Kott is a bit more neurotic. He squeaks if you press his belly and he often uses his squeaks to go on excitable rants or to scold us for not doing things according to our (or his) usual routine. His most precious thing in life is the strawberry on his belly, which he thinks he has to protect At All Cost. He doesn't really have any favorite music of his own but gets very excited when Lillen's fave track comes on.

Lillen is kind of a big brother to Kott and has taken him under his wings. He's taught him that the world isn't as scary as he thinks, and most people are friendly actually. This has allowed Kott to be brave enough to experience some of Lillen's adventures with him, and so they have a plethora of crazy stories about things they get up to while my partner and I are away or asleep. For example, they have apparently gone skateboarding with the neigbor's cat. My partner sometimes tells me about these adventures in the form of bedtime stories, if I ask nicely. (For some reason they tell him all about their adventures, but rarely share them with me...)

Anyway I love them and they are very important members of the family.

#ask a nerd #thank you for asking me about my barfies <3 #i am an adult child who likes to be told bedtime stories about my plushies. you wish you were me. #Lilla Fröet & Kott

txt as romance tropes . . . ♡

PAIRING: txt x gn!reader

GENRE: fluff

WARNINGS: none; not proof read

WORD COUNT: 2.7k

A/N: this is my first time writing something like this (i basically just wrote a really lazy story) and my first time writing on tumblr so i hope this looks ok !! i also wrote this at like 2 am. and this was also inspired by a tiktok video i saw. rest under cut !!

YEONJUN: popular x loner

he just seems like the popular type

he's popular because of how friendly and sweet he is (and cause he's attractive ofc)

he'd be the type to stare at you in the corner, wondering what you're thinking about

and thinking about it, he'd realize he's never really spoken to you before

and he finds himself becoming more and more interested in the quiet kid who doesn't fawn over him like everyone else (the classic "you're different from the rest" trope)

he'd then approach you one day at the library, asking what you were doing

and you weren't really sure why he was talking to you all of a sudden, so you give a curt reply

that doesn't stop him, though

he begins meeting you at the library every day, asking you questions and distracting you from your studies

at first, he was just curious, but now he's begun to notice your presence in the back of the class that's always directed at things besides him

he begins searching for you in every class, asking you for help or to be partners for a project

whether you give in and become friends automatically or reject him at first, he would not be willing to give up

and when you do eventually become friends, you find him stuck to you everywhere you go

he'd trail behind you in hallways and move seats in class to be closer to you

and of course, he saves you a seat at the library every day

and he would definitely fall first

it'd be another classic scene where you smile at him happily and he finds his heart beating at an unusually fast pace

and when you begin smiling more after getting used to his presence, his heart starts beating at the mere sight of you

he would definitely talk about you to whoever listens

"i swear soobin, the way their eyes flutter when they speak is insane! it's driving me crazy!" "they were blinking, yeonjun"

his eyes begin drifting over to where you're seated, unable to focus in class

of course, this all leads to him failing a test

so when you offer to come over and tutor him, especially after being friends for weeks now, he's ecstatic

and when you sit yourself down on his bed, a few feet away from him, hands brushing against his as you read from the textbook, he can't help it

his gaze travels from your eyes to your lips and back to your eyes

and he confesses right there !!

as you begin explaining newton's first law, he blurts out "i like you"

he's been planning out how to confess for days now to no avail, so you're both surprised

but of course, he's not one to back down and repeats himself

"i like you a lot"

and everyone is shocked when you both show up to school the next day with his arm wrapped around your shoulder

well, besides soobin, of course

SOOBIN: your next-door neigbor

he's the new guy who moves in next to your place

he'd probably come over to introduce himself

but unfortunately, your first meeting with him doesn't go so great

you open the door in your spongebob pajamas, ready to yell at whoever decided to wake you up at 6 am

but when you're faced with a tall boy with a bright smile, waving as he says hi, you find yourself at a loss for words

so what do you do next when a random, cute boy shows up in front of your place?

you close the door on him, of course

and although you wanted to apologize, you figured you wouldn't have to see him again anyways

but nothing really goes your way

so when you open the door a few hours later to go out and you see him coming out from the place next to yours at the same time, you panic

when he notices your presence, he gives a small wave but that sends you into even more of a frenzy as you rush back inside

realizing that you can't be wary of your hot neighbor forever, you decide to introduce yourself to him the next day

and when you do, things seem to have gotten better

now you greet him whenever you run into each other

but of course, nothing ever goes right for you

you spend the next two weeks bumping into the door, spilling coffee, and stuttering whenever you see him

you could've sworn he put a curse on you

but when you realize your heart begins thumping against your chest whenever you catch a glimpse of him on his balcony, you realize it's much worse

but too preoccupied with your own thoughts, you don't even see soobin staring at you as he sits outside

your clumsy antics made you seem cute (and a hazard to society)

and he began looking forward to running into you every day and night

and he finds that he was looking forward to more than just the way you stuttered at his presence

he had spent 15 minutes that morning trying to decide whether wearing glasses would make him look intelligent or not, ultimately deciding to wear it in hopes that you're attracted to guys who look smart

and the day before that, he got ready 20 minutes in advance so that he could leave at the same time you did in order to greet you

and now he was on the balcony, wondering if he looked mysterious as he rested against the edge

and although he had noticed a few glances from you, he wasn't sure whether you were interested or not

so he tries to gather some courage to ask you to hang out someday

and he does !! (after a little motivation from his friends)

"you've been single for way too long! what if i die from old age before i see you get married! i'll spend my time in my grave haunting you until you get a partner!" "you're only a year older than me, yeonjun"

"he's right though! what if we all die of old age and you're stuck here alone?" "i'm two years older than you, hueningkai!"

so he knocks on your door the next day and asks whether you're free or not, and if you wanted to go to a cafe with him

and when he notices the blush on your face as you nod your head yes, he realizes that maybe it wasn't just one-sided after all

BEOMGYU: rivals to lovers

you're in opposing bands who happened to debut around the same time

of course, this drew fans to wonder if there would be any competition between you two

but you harbored no resentment towards him or his band as far as you were concerned

of course, until @/beomchoi23 made a tweet saying your singing made him want to never listen to music again

that's when it all went south

you took it upon yourself to reply back to him, leading to a very long thread full of snarky remarks and at least three curse words (which your company reprimanded you for)

and when you see beomgyu and his band performing ahead of you, you made sure to wear the ugliest scowl on your face

and when he felt someone drilling a hole into his head, he turns around to face you, throwing you an even uglier glare

and when he leaves the stage and passes by, he makes sure to stick his tongue out

and while one of beomgyu's members drags him away by his ear and apologizes, you can't help yourself but take out your phone and tweet about his rude behavior

of course that only leads to another argument with user beomchoi23 and another lecture from your manager, but you weren't one to back down from a fight

then you meet him again, except this time he was sitting across from you

with the drama both you and beomgyu had caused, the company organized a duet in order to calm things down

and although you could feel beomgyu glaring at you with distaste, you couldn't argue about it

and that's how you both ended up in a recording booth together

"i can't believe i have to work with you" "well i'm not exactly happy about it either"

and despite his rude behavior, you had to admit he had a good voice

and although he wouldn't ever say it out loud, it was obvious he thought the same about you with the way he was staring (this time with less annoyance)

and even though you didn't quite like him yet, he was good at his job

"i guess you're not that bad, beomgyu" "i wish i could say the same"

so the next few weeks went by with small bickering, but overall compliance from one another

and when the song was completed, it was a hit

you had noticed he had deleted his tweets about you, too

and whilst you were happy with that, he wasn't

unknownst to you, he had originally tweeted about you in order to get your attention

unfortunately for him, it was the wrong kind of attention

and although it did lead to a duet and weeks alone with you

he wasn't happy when he realized he didn't have a reason to talk to you again

so what was his solution? to tweet again

and when you see your mentions blowing up, you already know what happened

so you find him backstage, pulling him into an empty room

and when you ask him why he's upset again

he just says

"i wanted your attention"

now, you weren't an idiot

when a cute boy you've spent weeks alone with tells you he wants your attention, you blush

but you also know that he's told you he dislikes you multiple times now, so you also raise your eyebrow at him

you tell him he could've gotten your attention in any other way, but he shakes his head, telling you he wanted you to remember him

and you do

it would be impossible to forget the boy who tweets that you annoy him only to blush whenever you made eye contact

"you do know you could've just complimented me" "i would've been lying then" "shut up"

TAEHYUN: soulmates

there are many different ways you can connect with your soulmate

there's the one where you can't see color until you lock eyes with them

or there's the one where you hear their thoughts inside your head

but you have the classic red string of fate

it's an invisible red line that connects you with your soulmate

you could follow it and try to navigate where it would lead you

but you weren't that curious

you figured that everything would work itself out and you would meet if fate allowed you to

so you went on with your life, never sparing a second glance at the red line that seemed to go on forever

but one day it shakes

the red string begins shaking uncontrollably

maybe this was a sign that your soulmate was nearby?

you look down from your apartment window when you see a man standing in the middle of the park nearby

and connected to him is a red string

nervous and excited, you grab your jacket and rush downstairs

and you run down the stairs as fast as you can, but when you get to the park, he isn't there

you look around frantically and he wasn't there

and you look down at your pinky and the red string is calm again

the next time it shakes again is during the middle of a meeting at your workplace

and although you wanted to jump up and run to your soulmate, you knew you couldn't

and when the meeting was over, the red string was back to normal once again

and then it happened again

the red string of fate begins trembling when you're in the middle of a busy street

but you spot him, nonetheless

he was wearing the same jacket and you could see the string tugging you towards him

and although you wanted to run over to him, you couldn't

he was moving quickly and the crowd was pushing against you

you reach your arm out one last time, and you swore you could see him stop, but you couldn't see whether he turned around or not

and when the street does clear up, he's gone again

it was like fate was teasing you

they say third time's a charm, but all it did was leave you with an uneasy feeling

and when you end the day at the library, choosing to go there to clear your head, the string begins wavering again

you stare at it as you contemplate whether it was even worth it to try again

and when it stops for the 4th time, you decide it wasn't

but then a tap on your shoulder changes your mind

when you turn around, you're greeted with a boy towering over you, smiling

"i finally found you"

little did you know, he was the one following the string all over korea

he was the one who started untangling the knots and bringing you together

he followed the string to your apartment, your workplace, the street, and now to the library

all in order to catch a glimpse of the one he's destined to be with

and now that he's seen you, he knows it was all worth it

"fourth time's a charm" "that isn't how the saying goes, taehyun" "it does for us"

HUENINGKAI: childhood friends to lovers

you've known hueningkai since you moved to his town when you were 8

you began living right next to him, and you met him after he invited you to play together in his backyard

he had a cool swingset, so of course, you agreed

and as the days went by, you found yourself coming over more and more

and you were inseparable ever since

you even went through your awkward middle school phase together

and now you two were graduating high school together

but lately, he's been acting differently

every time you see him in the hallway, he seems to scurry off in the opposite direction

and when you call him over after school, he makes some excuse not to see you

so you wondered if you did anything to make him upset

sure you two have gotten in a few arguments before, but even then, he always reached out to you

so you weren't really sure where you messed up

and when you brought this up to your friends, they all just giggled and gave you a look you couldn't really decipher

it was confusing, to say the least

so you went over to his house and knocked on the door, waiting impatiently

and when hueningkai comes to the door, he stares at you for a moment in shock before he asks what you're doing here

and you almost stutter in disbelief as if he hasn't been avoiding you for days now

and when you ask him why, all he does is look away

and when you move closer to him, he steps back

heartbroken now, you decide to walk away

but before you could leave, you hear him shout something

"i like you!"

and you hear the door shut close, but you're left standing where you were

you never thought about your feelings until now

he's changed from a loud, messy kid into a tall, caring boy

sure he was still loud at times, but you've always liked that about him

you've always liked everything about him

and with that realization, you knock on his door again

and when hueningkai opens it again, his eyes much more distressed now, you realize how different he looks

he's matured a lot since you were both little

and you realize how different he's acted in the past few years

from being wary of how often he'd hug you to him dropping everything in order to be there for you

he looks at you, even now, with such caring eyes

and you hug him, almost afraid that he'd change his mind

"i like you, too"

and as you feel his arms wrapped around your waist, you realize how long you've been waiting for this

"do you ever think about how we would've never happened if you had a much lesser cool swingset?" "is that the only reason why you like me?"

A/N: some of these were rushed sorry! but ill make sure to prepare more for the next one!!

Hey Angel (2)

A Church boy! Renjun x Angel! Reader AU

A story about a Church boy who is sick of his life and an angel who is finally living.

Chapter 2

Renjun shuts the door aand looks at the jar of cookies in his hand. There's a note on the jar, it reads; "Hello neighbor! We hope that we may get along with you and become good neigbors to each other." He smiles a little and sets the cookie jar down on the dining table as he enters the kitchen to get a drink from the refrigirator. Once he finishes drinking the milk he got, he heads back upstairs to prepare for the day.

Y/N walks back to her house which is right next to Renjun's She has an hour or so before he'll arrive at her house so she decides to tell her sister, Ariel about what she has seen so far with Renjun. As she enters the gate and passes through the garden, she is greeted by Lia who barks happily at Y/N's arrival. She picks up the dog and walks back to the house. Y/N knocks on the door then lets herself in. "Ariel, I'm home!" The older girl peeks her head from the kitchen, "That's good! Come here, its time to eat breakfast." With that she disappears into the kitchen once again. Y/N smiles and goes into the kitchen, putting Lia down and giving her food and some water so she can eat as well. Then she washes her hands and sits down at the table while Ariel hums a tune while cooking pancakes and bacon.

"You know, I thought that cooking would be a nightmare." Ariel laughs as she serves Y/N a few pancakes. The younger girl takes a bite out of the pancake, "You seem like you know what you're doing though? I mean, these pancakes actually taste good." Ariel chuckles as she places the bacon and a few more pancakes on the table. "Maybe they are good. Now eat up, you have a lot of work to do."

Y/N nods and starts eating, "He seems hesitant to befriend me."

"Give him a little bit of time. This is why we were sent here, to guide these youths." Ariel bites into a pancake, "So what did his mother say? I saw her go out of the house to greet you."

"She asked him to take me to choir practice." Ariel nods as they silently finish their breakfast.

Y/N then heads upstairs to her new room, after helping Ariel with the dishes. She looks for the room with her name on the door and opens it. She smiles excitedly to see her new room. Just like any girls' room it is a room painted a nice lilac color. She has a few stuffed toys here and there and a few instruments that she can play. She then looks in the closet to find clothes that are modest yet pretty. She picks out a light blue shirt and a pair of greyish joggers. She then puts on what she knows to be a pair of sneakers and heads out of her room.

Renjun hates having to tour new kids around the neighborhood, but sometimes, it works out. As he puts on his rubber shoes, he sends a text to his friend, Jeno, that he'll be on his way soon and that he is bringing a friend with him. He then walks to the front door of his house, "Chichi, I'll be going now!" He tells his dog as he shuts the door and heads to his neighbors' house. He looks at their gate in awe, they have a garden leading to their house? He asks himself as he rings the doorbell. The gates open automatically and he enters the garden. As he enters the garden he is greeted by an older girl watering the flowers. "Hello, my name is Renjun, I'm looking for Y/N?" The older girl stops watering the plants and looks at him, "I'm Ariel, Y/N's older sister. She's on her way here. Take a seat while you wait." Renjun nods and sits on a seat beside a table. 'It must be cool to study or read here.' He thinks to himself as he waits.

Y/N enters the garden soon enough wearing her new outfit. "Hello Renjun! Shall we go to choir practice now?" He nods getting up, "Yeah, let's get going." They wave goodbye to Ariel and exit the garden to start walking to the church.

The first few minutes of walking are silent. A little awkward but comforting nonetheless. But the silence is getting tiring to listen to, and the still have a few blocks to go. It won't be bad to try to start a conversation right? So Renjun does exactly that, "So where are you from?" He looks at her. Y/N looks at him with a spark of happiness, then a little bit of sadness, "Oh, I'm from Y/C. Its a really nice country, but my sister and I moved here since our parents died." Renjun looks at her sadly, "Oh. I'm sorry to hear about that, I didn't know." She looks at him with a pure smile, "Its okay, I know you meant well." He smiles a little. "So what made you join the choir?" Y/N asks with curiosity in her eyes. Renjun is now smiling brightly, "Well, I first joined choir as a kid here, that was because I love to sing. Then it was always about just singing, until I met my friends."

She giggles a little, "Thats a good start, I think you're passionate about it."

Renjun nods, then sighs. "Well, I used to be this passionate about it on the outside. That was up until…" Y/N looks at him confused, "Until?" "Nothing…" he says coldly trudging ahead. Y/N stops to stare at him a little, 'Whats so hard about telling me how he feels?' She thinks as she tries to catch up to the boy. "Hey wait up! Renjun!" As she runs after him, he stops in front of a house. "Hey, you shouldn't have walked so fast…" Renjun huffs as he knocks on the door. "What are we doing here? Aren't we supposed to be going to choir practice?"

Renjun ignores her and waits until the front door opens. A young boy the same age as Y/N and Renjun appears, smiling brightly. He is wearing a striped polo shirt and jeans. "Hey Injun!" The boy opens the gate, going outside, "Oh, is this the new neigbor?" He asks Renjun. "Jeno meet Y/N, Y/N meet Jeno, one of my choir friends." Y/N silently says ohhh and smiles at the new boy. Jeno seems to be very polite and friendly. "Hello Jeno! Its nice to meet you." She streches out her hand, and he takes it. "Nice to meet you too Y/N! Why don't we head to choir practice now? The others are waiting for us." "The others?" She asks them both. "He's talking about the rest of our friends, c'mon you can meet them when we get there." Renjun finally lightens up, and with that, they make their way to the church.

At the church theyre are a few teens already there as Y/N, Renjun and Jeno enter. The church is simple, it has white walls and stained glass mosaic for the main design. Jeno and Renjun then lead Y/N to a group of boys. These boys are playing instruments and singing choir songs. "There they are. Renjun, Jeno, over here!" An energetic younger boy waves them over, Y/N follows the two of them. "Oh, who is this?" Another younger boy asks. "Everyone, this is Y/N my new neighbor and a new addition to the choir." Y/N smiles at the boys, "Hello!" The other boys smile back and the one holding a guitar gets up, "Hi I'm Mark, I'm sort of the leader of this squad." Y/N nods, "Hello! I'm Chenle, I'm a year younger. So I must call you Y/N noona." The energetic boy from earlier says. "Hi, I'm Jisung, the youngest one here." A boy with light brown hair says. "I'm Haechan" a boy with redish brown hair says smiling widely. "And I'm Jaemin!" Another boy sitting next to Mark says with enthusiasm. Y/N smiled at all of them, 'These boys are really nice and seem to be on the right track, so why would they need guidance?' She wonders. "Its nice to meet all of you!"

Renjun then takes her to their choir teacher, Taeil, a young man who loves music. The older male has his back turned as he adjusts the keyboard settings to play the songs. "Hyung," Renjun taps his shoulder. He looks at the younger boy, "Yes Renjun?" "I have a new neighbor, and she would like to join the choir." Behind him, Y/N waves at the teacher. "Oh, you must be one of the L/N sisters. I've heard about you and your sisters, I hear that you have wonderful voices." She smiles shyly, "Thank you for that teacher, I'd really like to join the choir." Taeil smiles, "Of course, but we ask each youth to play any song on any instrument and sing it for everyone before they join." "I understand, may I use your keyboard to play my song?" Taeil moves aside and offers her the keyboard, "Its all yours." As Y/N sets up, Taeil calls the rest of them, "All right everyone, gather around, this is Y/N and she will be singing for us as she will be joining the choir."

Y/N starts playing a tune and starts to sing.

"Stars shining bright above you

Night breezes seem to whisper I love you

Birds singing in the sycamore tree

Dream a little dream of me"

Renjun tries to hide the shock he feels, 'How is her voice this good?' He asks himself as she continues to sing. Her voice sounds angelic, as if an angel is singing to them.

As Y/N finishes her song, she smiles and everyone claps. "Thank you Y/N. Now, we will be doing a few vocal exercises before we start practicing a new song." Taeil takes his place behind the keyboard and Y/N sits next to Renjun, 'Maybe choir practice will be more interesting from now on?'

Historical AU (Ot 7)

Summary : You were the daughter who was born in the poor family.You tried your best to work hard and provided every thing for your family.As a street musian during the day and in the whorehouse during the night.However one day,you came back home and saw your parents beaten up.You then got to know that your parents owe a large amount of money.The next day you went to the shark loaner and talked about it.However they didn’t listen to your offer and tried to kidnap you.That was when a man pop up from nowhere and saved you.In return of his act,you became a musician in the Castle.Leading to know who he was along with his friends...

note : Timeline of the story was in Choson Period.

Kim Namjoon : Equerry of the prince

- Although he was the youngest of all,he was indeed intelligent compare to others around his age.He had an important role when it comes to planning about the security and crime suppress division.

- With that serious look of him,he was a warm hearted person who would always help you.The first day you came here,he was the guide for you.He also introduced to his 2 friends as well,Hoseok and Yoongi.They were the son’s of the duke.

Kim Seokjin : The prince’s cousin

- He was prince charming.The son’s of prince uncle who ruled the neighbor kingdom.If his father didn’t married and decided to be a king for the neigbor kingdom with his beloved queen,Seokjin himself would be the crown prince.

- Although he didn’t visit the kingdom and his cousin often.You met him by accident when you came across him practice archery with the prince.That was when the prince introduce you and him to know each other.

- His skill in combat was brilliant especially with sword.Namjoon once took you to watch him train other cambat skill after finish with archery.Archery might not his thing but with sword,it was different story.

Min Yoongi : The (North position)duke son

- One of Namjoon friend who always had dead face.It wasn’t because he already dead and still walking like zombie(that’s creppy lol).It was his personality. He didn’t bother with surrounding.However if he happy,he will be sunshine like his friend,Hoseok, as well.He was kind of poet persona.

- Although at first it looked boring,when you actually got to know him you would change your mind.It was like one of his good.Beside Namjoon,he was the other one who would understand deeply about philosophy,life and all.

- Don’t you dare to mess with him.He would be really agressive if he got trigger by someone.He could get mad easily.Once you cross the line,he would make sure whoever did that regret it.Don’t forget that his father was the leader of duke who took care of the North area.

Jung Hoseok : The (South position)duke son

- Fun fact ; his father wasn’t so friendly with Yoongi’s father.Since his father was the leader for the south part.They would always throw the arrogant look to each other.However their sons were best friend with each other.

- The sunshine,happy virus,clown or anything that would use to describe something relate to happy and fun.Those word could also describe him.He looked cheerful everytime you saw him.Not to mention that he was a good listener when you felt so blue.

- Every girls aware of him as player since he looked so friendly.You couldn’t blame them since at first that was your thought.However it was you who thought so much.He just friendly with everyone and harmless.

Park Jimin : Muscian

- You felt like he didn’t like your presence.He then came to you and apologized for making you think of that.He just felt nervous around girl since you’re the first to approach him.‘Mostly they think that I’m gay so none of them approach me.’

- You wondered why people think of him like that.You didn’t knew the answer until saw him dancing.He told you that his mother was the dancer for the royal show with the fans and he learned that from her.He ended up knowing how to dance like that which suppose to be girl’s thing.

- He became your best friend in no time as you guys work together.He played the bamboo flute while you play the fiddle (bamboo stump).He also the favourite of the prince.Well they both also a good friend.

Kim Taehyung :  The crown prince

- Wondering the man in the first scene.Well here he is,the hero who saved you from the shark loaner.Offering you to get inside the catle and work as musician.When he brought you here,he introduce you to Jimin.

- Like the above,he was born to be an archer.However he needed a bit more practice on sword skill.Jin told you the story when Taehyung first used the sword.He freaked out and nearly cut himself.You still can see how he struggle although now he improve a lot according to Seokjinssi.

- The ‘fool’ prince who would prank on others.The one who got that the most probably was a train doctor.He was around your age named Jungkook.From what Jimin told you,he was a shy boy.However got really close with Taehyung since he was train to be personal doctor.The poor boy ended up get tease.

Jeon Jungkook : The prince’s personal doctor (still training)

- A shy boy who entered here before you around 3 months ago.He didn’t speak much with you.What actually made you really got to know him was when you were sick.Taehyung ordered him to check on you and that was the beginning.

- He was really helpful with a lot of things.Wondering why he didn’t become a soldier or duke instead of doctor.He was wise and well built figure.He then claimed that his house was a doctor house.Everyone in his family worked for the royal as doctor since his grand grand parents.He then ended up in this position.

- The boy was train to be doctor.However you can’t ignore the fact that he was like the second equerry for Taehyung.Namjoon notice the talent in him so he insist to train Jungkook.Namjoon once said that Jungkook basically can be the equerry like him or even the assasin.

Well how was it guys? This idea I should thanks pinterest.I was scrowling down. Then there was a suggestion photos and ideas for me.I clicked in and saw all of them.(All picture of the boys belong to original owner.I only arrange them a bit.)So I decide to make this.Hope you enjoy this one.Also thanks for the support on Mafia AU,the last one that I post.Although it not much but still make me surprise. Didn’t think you guys will like it that much.See you next time and don’t forget to read the others.

I refuse to walk past a crappy neigbor; i will sit in this car or drive around again until they get inside or leave or move.

Tired of my years of being too friendly blowing up in my face.

A memorable one

I just got home from a very tiring yet memorable day. It may sound weird, but I'm so glad to share that I just attended three Christmas parties today (from my three subjects), hehe. More than that, I am more glad of how things went well, that as a whole, this day became one of the most memorable days in this year's Christmas season.

During our PE class in the morning, I was surprised that one of my friends gave me a Christmas present. I didn't expect that at all, and so yeah, I felt touched from the bottom of my heart. I appreciate this friend of mine, really.

Prior to the parties, I was able to witness an interview done by one of my staff (I'm proud of this staff) to a certain person who really inspired me through her answers. From her words, I was able to feel the beauty of her heart. Very heartwarming and pure.

FIRST PARTY. It was a success. The class went out of the room feeling satisfied, bringing within them the enjoyment from the zumba, games (esp. the Longest line), and of course, the prizes.

Prior to the second party, we were able to conduct an interview with a schoolmate of ours, in fulfillment of our reqs in one of our subjects. That interview went well too, as it just sounded as a friendly chitchat between our respondent and us, groupmates.

I also had the chance to have a small talk with my neigboring Editor in Chief, from the other college department. I was surprised to receive a present from her. A rim of bond papers. Simple yet so practical!

SECOND PARTY. Beginning with the "Star ng Pasko" community song, we also enjoyed this party because of the games that we played and the prizes and gifts that we got. Well, I really enjoyed even though I wasn't able to win in any of the raffle hahaha. One friend of mine, who received my simple gift in the exchange gift part, kissed me in the cheeks as a sign of her appreciation. She made me smile at that moment.

THIRD PARTY. The last party of our night was unexpected. We thought that we'll just continue our activity in economics and bore ourselves with the time spent in studying, even though it was the last day that we'll meet for 2019. But that did not happen, of course. I am personally blessed to have classmates and advisers who know the value of celebrations, hehe. You know what I mean!

Going back, this last party paved a way for us, blockmates, to spend a moment with each other- and I really appreciate that. I became so happy just by looking at them, playing with our Christmas lights and capturing each other's pic with their own fierce poses. The switch-to-other-gender thingyy in Snapchat also made us laugh and be amazed of each other's physique. The aguinaldos that our adviser gave to us, filled not just our pockets, but also our hearts, adding to the joy that we felt at that moment. And yeah, ladies and gentlemen, I won in one of the games and in the raffle, and I am so so so happy! What completed my day is the simple gesture from one of my friends, who gave me the prize that she got from one of the games. She was also the one who announced that the one who was picked in the raffle (I am) was deserving. Well, that simple gesture really moved me. I felt special by that. I was so delighted to have her as a friend.

Okay but listen. I need more friendly werewolf things. It's like a fucking drug. Help me.

A series of leads and anonymous tips were what led George to moving into Argent Hills. Just for awhile; he wasn’t sure how long. Finding werewolves was a tricky business. Killing them was almost the easier part, comparatively. He was fully prepared to spend at least a few weeks tracking until he narrowed down a few likely suspects and go from there.

He didn’t expect to have the werewolves come to him.

“Howdy new neighbor!”

George heard the knock on the door a split second later. He got up from his kneeling position by one of the boxes he was starting to unpack. The voice was louder than the knock. He opened the door and stood face to face with the largest human being he had ever encountered.

He was noticeably taller than George, who stood at what he felt was a respectable six feet tall. The man had a thick, but neatly trimmed beard, running a hand across his whiskers as he grinned down at him. George swallowed.

“Oh, uh–hello…?”

“Ben!” He thrust a huge hand out that George took. “Ben Blakesly. Good to meet you! We live just down the block. Thought the family and I should say hi.”

“The fam–”

He realized there were other people there. A small mob had assembled on his front lawn. The closest of which was a woman Ben had his arm around, standing about George’s height, with auburn hair tied loosely back. She lifted her arms a little and George caught the whiff of fresh blueberry.

“My wife Addie,” Ben said in way of an introduction. Addie smiled.

“Hello! I’m sorry, I don’t think we’ve even learned your name yet.”

“Uh, George.”

“It’s so nice to meet you! I hope you like blueberry.”

He grabbed the pie from them. He wasn’t exactly sure of how he should react. He was always a secretive person by nature–people in his particular profession tended to be–so having strangers knocking down his door and showering him with gifts was not a scenario he’d practiced for. Ben hooked his thumbs into the pockets of his jeans, his stomach straining just slightly as it pushed against the plaid shirt he’d tucked in.

“I…well who doesn’t?”

“I like you already, George!” Ben said, laughing, “I can see you look a little shell shocked.”

“Ben tends to have that effect on the new neigbors,” Addie added, nudging her husband affectionately. Ben rolled his eyes good naturedly.

“At least I didn’t sic the entire pack on them.”

“The pack?”

“The kids wanted to come to see if you had any kids,” Addie said, “they love making new friends.”

“Here, I’ll show you. Kids!” Ben turned his head and whistled. The eight other people milling about–some on the lawn, some on the sidewalk–immediately looked toward their (apparently) father and waved enthusiastically with a chorus of ‘hey new neighbor!’ and 'nice to meet you sir!“

"But even Ben is self aware enough to know that eight rambunctious kids might be a little too much at once for a stranger,” Addie finished.

George blinked. “No kids,” he said, “or wife. Just me.”

“Well, if you want to fix that, I can always introduce you to the rest of the neigborhood–in fact, I will!” Ben rubbed his hands together. “You like a good barbecue, George?”

“I–well I mean I’m kind of busy–I don’t know–”

“Come on. We do a lot of hunting. We catch venison so fresh Bambi doesn’t know it’s dead yet.”

“Isn’t it not hunting season?” George pointed out.

Ben looked at his wife and shrugged.

“No one seems to mind. That’s how good our barbecues are.”

A sinking feeling starting to overcome George as he looked at this giant, seemingly amicable new neighbor, his wife, and kids. Eight kids.

He really, really hoped his gut feeling was wrong.

Otherwise, ten of them.

But for now he figured he should get a taste for barbecue.

“Well, I mean if you’re offering, I’ll stop by,” he finally conceded.

“Wonderful!” Ben clapped George on the shoulder, and it took all of his strength not to crumple under the weight. “I’ll tell Addie to make a few extra pies for ya’. Kids! Come on, we have to get you guys to the bus stop.”

All eight of the kids started to groan. Addie hurried over to herd them into some sort of line.

“Kids thought if we got distracted they’d get to miss the bus,” he laughed, “kids think they’re smarter than their old man but they got another thing coming. I’ll see you this weekend George. Welcome to the neighborhood!”

He gave him another friendly clap on the shoulder before he joined his wife. Two of the smaller kids that were being especially rowdy were scooped up like footballs. They all trotted down the sidewalk.

George stumbled back inside and closed the door.

They knew. They had to know. Why else would they make a big show of coming over?

With 'pie.’

He wrinkled his nose at it and dropped it. There was no way he was eating werewolf pie. Probably poisoned. He cracked his knuckles. He was a seasoned professional, dammit. He could do this.

But another shiver involuntarily went down his spine when he remembered the shadow of Ben Blakesly that loomed over him and…ten of them.
