A lot of people wonder why so many fans of Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo hate each other. And after a few years of being a fan of both of them, I think I’ve finally figured it out.

It’s jealousy.

What could each of these stans possibly be jealous of? You ask.

Let me lay it out for you.

On the one hand, you have Xiao Zhan. 😍 Talented, amazing, so beautiful you almost can’t look at him directly Xiao Zhan.

So why do some WYB fans hate him so much? Because his popularity is insane.

This is from an index poll based on Weibo chatter around the time XZ went to Italy. And I think this is pretty typical… I saw one very similar for Weibo night. And from an objective view, the numbers do seem to defy logic.

This is a man who is a model, a product endorser, an actor, and — when we’re very lucky — a singer. Currently in that order. (I can feel you picking up your torches and pitchforks but just stay with me 😆) He doesn’t do variety shows or even make a lot of appearances. His live streams for brands are recorded, without fans present or participating in any way. Since the end of 2019, we get to see him in 1, maybe 2 dramas in a year. He did a play (which he’s doing again soon), but not many fans have access to that. He’s got the highest selling single of all time — but he’s never performed it.

It is frankly a CRIME how little we get to see of Xiao Zhan 😭 But as his fan, I assume this is the way he wants it. I don’t question his work choices — you do you, baby ☺️ But haters, they look at the output level and just can’t understand why he’s so much more popular than Wang Yibo. So they’re jealous of the polls and ratings - because no matter what, Xiao Zhan is always on top.

Meanwhile Wang Yibo is EVERYWHERE.

He’s modeling, he’s selling stuff, he’s on tv dramas, he’s on Street Dance of China, he’s dropping singles, he’s performing goddamn interpretive dance to his songs.

🤩 He’s a movie star with THREE movies coming out this year…

And WOW do some of XZ’s fans hate him for it 🔥

Why does WYB get to be out there doing all of this? Why not Xiao Zhan??

If it’s a selfish person who only looks at their fave as a commodity to consume, you can see where it would make them very bitter indeed.

I don’t know the reason for the career differences — I have wonderings, but ultimately I trust in them to do what they want to do, and I sit back and enjoy their work and efforts whenever and however they come. As a turtle, I’m blessed! It’s a shame that all of their fans can’t just enjoy the gifts we’re given.

But haters gotta hate I guess, and well… they can heed this message 😆

#yizhan #haters gonna hate #bitches be trippin #I stan two kings #hey jealousy #don’t @ me #they do what they want #I have no idea how tags work I just like to use them #bjyx memes #BXG life

Hey Jealousy pt. 1

Pairing: Matt Murdock & Billy Russo x F! Reader

Warnings: Pretty tame. PG-13. Love triangle sort of, little bit violent, swearing, tiny bit of smexy time, definitely not a 3-way! I can’t even write regular smut let alone throw an extra person in there. The warnings will be the same for all 4 parts even if some aren’t in the other parts ( does that make sense?) I don’t fuckin know

Word Count: 2,229-ish

A/N: This is part 1 of 4 (I think) . I wanted to break it up so it’s not so long. Title is a Gin Blossoms song. And it doesn’t follow a particular storyline, I added Billy for his pretty face. As always, comments are always welcome and thank you for reading! I appreciate you! ❤️

Why did your love life have to be so complicated? It was either completely non-existent or men fell over themselves to get at you, it was never simple.

Things seemed to be looking up though when you met a devilishly handsome lawyer at the courthouse on a particular crazy morning where everything had gone wrong.

You woke up late, then couldn’t find matching shoes, and spilled your coffee into your breakfast before leaving your apartment. It was already an exasperating morning and it wasn’t even 9 am.

Being a paralegal, the law firm you worked for had a case that was about to start that day and you couldn’t be late, they were counting on your research and notes.

As usual, you weren’t paying attention to where you were going and ran right into him as you hustled around the corner.

Crashing into him felt like hitting a brick wall and when your body collided with his, all of the papers you had in hand went everywhere and you almost fell all the way to the ground.

He immediately apologized. “Oh I am so sorry, are you alright?”

You knew it was your fault, pressing your hand to your forehead, you couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. “Oh! I’m fine, I’m fine.” Noticing the glasses and the cane, you put two and two together and thought, ‘oh god, I just ran into a blind man.’

It was your turn to apologize. “I am so, so sorry! It’s my fault, I wasn’t paying attention and I’m running late.” You kept talking as you picked up the papers you dropped. “Are any of these yours?”

You felt really stupid after asking that question.

He smiled and said “Oh I’m pretty sure they’re all yours.”

After gathering all of your papers off of the floor, you apologized again. “Again, I am really sorry, you sure you’re not hurt?” He was so handsome, his smile, that dimple, you felt yourself start to blush as he spoke again, his voice was so soothing and calm.

“I really should be asking you that since I basically tackled you to the ground…My name is Matt, by the way, Matt Murdock.”

You thought the name sounded familiar and then you remembered one of the lawyers in your firm mentioning the names ‘Nelson and Murdock.’ “Murdock as in ‘Nelson and Murdock?’ The firm I work for has mentioned the two of you on a couple occasions.”

He seemed a little surprised. “Oh are you a lawyer too?”

Still a little flushed, you said “Me? No, no, no, I’m just a paralegal. But I really have to go or I’m really going to be late.”

Flustered, he stumbled over his words a little. “Wait, wait—I, uh, I didn’t catch your name.”

The butterflies in your stomach were something you haven’t experienced in quite some time. With a smile, you said “My name? Oh it’s y/f/n – y/f/n y/l/n. It was nice to meet you Matt Murdock.” And with that, you turned on your heels and starting walking towards your courtroom.

With a big smile on his face, he called out after you “It was nice to meet you too y/f/n y/l/n.”

Right before the judge called for lunch recess, you heard the door to the courtroom open and with his cane leading the way, Matt walked through the doorway and stood off to the side.

The judge called for recess, you walked over to him and even though you were happy to see him, you still asked “What are you doing here, Matt? And how did you know which courtroom I was in?”

You could tell he was nervous “Oh…well, I just took a guess and I wanted to see if you wanted to grab a quick lunch with me before I have to be back, well…before WE have to be back.”

And that was your first, sort of, date with Matt Murdock – Just a quick lunch from a street vendor, and yet it was just wonderful. The two of you talked, and laughed as busy people on the street passed by.

You wanted to see him again and almost like he had read your mind or he really wanted to see you again too, (maybe it was a little bit of both) he asked if he could take you out to dinner on Friday night.

Your first actual date with Matt was dinner at his favorite Thai food place, the second date was a walk in the park followed by coffee, and your third date was breakfast at a diner close to the courthouse.

However, the dates were very sporadic, some time had passed between the first and second date and more time in between the second and third date. You talked often in between but you had a hard time trying to figure out what you two were to each other.

Being very shy, you didn’t feel comfortable asking him, maybe he didn’t even know or didn’t want to bring it up because you didn’t. What you did know was you really liked him and you were just wondering if he felt the same way.

Daydreaming about Matt was a daily occurrence, remembering his full beautiful lips on yours, his hand cupping your cheek and his fingers gently brushing the hair away from your face and tucking it behind your ear.

The way he gave you goosebumps every time he gently touched your arm, and the flutter you felt in your core when he kissed your neck.

When he told you he needed to stop because he didn’t want to go too far, too fast and mess things up, you wanted to tell him not to. You wanted to say to him “I need you Matt, please don’t stop.”

But you didn’t and it left you thinking, ‘does he ever think of those times too? What were you to him? What was he to you? What did you want him to be?’ All of these questions you wanted answers to but were too scared to ask him.

Work had been busy for the both of you lately. Matt still called, you talked regularly but you hadn’t seen him in a month, and that’s when you decided to surprise him at Josie’s.

He had a standing date with Foggy and Karen at the end of every week to have a drink and unwind but when you showed up at Josie’s on that Friday, the smile on your face quickly disappeared as soon as you saw her sitting with Matt.

You recognized her from the courthouse, she was a court reporter, and she had her hands resting on his forearm. Smiling and laughing, they all looked like they were having a great time.

Feeling like you had been punched in the stomach, that’s all you needed to see, you looked away from the window and started off down the street.

You didn’t know why you were crying, the two of you never said it was exclusive and when you arrived back at your apartment, you didn’t leave again until the weekend was over.

Of course, Matt had called a couple times and texted, you didn’t answer but listened to his voice message a few times – “Sweetheart, I’m starting to get worried. Please call me.”

The nerve of him, calling you after being out with another woman. Who the hell does he think he is?!!

Left alone with your thoughts, you couldn’t help but blame yourself. If you had just talked about what was on your mind in the first place, maybe the two of you wouldn’t be in this confusing situation.

Determined to get your mind off Matt, you just completely threw yourself into the work you needed to get done. After a full morning of doing research, interviewing clients, and assisting with some case planning, the firm needed you to run down to the courthouse to drop something off to another attorney.

You decided just to eat your lunch there and get some more work done, when a tall, handsome man, in a gray suit sat down across from you. He had dark brown, almost black, hair, a short well-groomed beard and the darkest, most beautiful brown eyes you’ve ever seen.

“May I join you?”

This wasn’t your first rodeo so you had your guard up a little -- “Well you’re already sitting down soooooo, sure. Do I know you?” Squinting your eyes slightly at him, you glared at him a little. What does this guy want?

His voice was soft with a slight New York accent – “You looked a little flustered when you sat down, I was just wondering if you’re alright, that’s all.”

After he said that, it was hard to contain your smile, you hadn’t really talked to anyone besides co-workers in a few weeks and here is this handsome stranger, noticing that you seem to be having a hard time, asking if you’re alright, so you decided there’s no harm in polite conversation.

“Well, the last few weeks have been a bit rough and I’ve been really busy with work. Are you a lawyer? You’re sure dressed like one.”

He threw his head back and laughed a little “A lawyer? Me? Nah, I was just dropping off some forms. My name is Billy, Billy Russo.”

You glanced at your watch and freaked out at the time, you had to get back so you started gathering up all your papers quickly. “Oh shit! I’m sorry, it was nice to meet you Billy Russo, but I have to get going, my lunch break is almost over.”

As you stood up, he rose to his feet also. “I didn’t catch your name.”

You smiled at him and winked—“That’s because I didn’t give it to you.”

Slight disappointment on his face, he pursed his lips together and glanced at the ground which made you feel a little bad—oh what the hell, why not? How else were you going to try and get over Matt? “Y/n—my name is y/n.”

“May I walk you back to your office, y/n?” He asked, there was a gentle tone to his voice and he gave you goosebumps when he smiled at you.

You could get lost in those gorgeous eyes of his and the only thing you could manage to say was

“Sure.”

Billy had taken you to a really expensive Italian restaurant for your first date and while you felt a little under dressed, he said you looked perfect.

This wasn’t really your scene but it was definitely very nice and it felt great to be out on a date with someone who seemed to really like you. Billy carried himself with such confidence, he was very charming, polite, and gorgeous.

Billy told you that after he got out of the military he started his own private military firm, ANVIL. He conveyed that the company provided a service and purpose for veterans who felt like they still had work to do outside of the military after they got out, he also seemed interested in your job, your life, and your…well, everything.

Of course while you were out, Matt had called…again and Billy could sense that something was bothering you. “You ok, beautiful? You seem a little distracted.” Beautiful…Matt called you beautiful too. No, stop it! You’re on a date with someone else, for god sakes!

You played it off like everything was fine and put your phone back in your purse, you weren’t sure he believed you or not but you were actually having a great time.

After dinner, the two of you walked arm in arm underneath the bright lights of the city in the crisp autumn air. You asked about his time in the service, first making sure he was comfortable talking about it, you have quite a few friends and some family that are veterans and sometimes it’s not something they’re always willing to talk about.

Some of Billy’s stories were heartbreaking, he even told you about growing up in the foster care system, which was even more heartbreaking. You listened attentively but didn’t push too hard and by the time the two of you walked back to your apartment, he had told you so much about his military career and his childhood, you didn’t realize your head was resting on his shoulder.

Starting to see a pattern, you realized you had a thing for broken men who wore nice suits.

He walked with you up the stairs to the outside door of your building. “Thank you for tonight, Billy. This was...really nice.”

He looked down at the ground and back up to meet your eyes. “My pleasure, thank you for letting me take you out.” He inched towards you, closing the gap between your bodies and tilted your chin up so you were looking into those deep brown eyes and he kissed you.

The kiss was wonderful, gentle and his lips were soft but all you could seem to think of was Matt. Why?!

Billy was here with you now, he wanted to be here with you and you were thinking of someone else who didn’t want to be here. “Can I call you tomorrow?” He asked and then kissed you again.

You felt a little light headed, maybe it was the wine, maybe it was the kiss, again all you could manage to get out was “Sure.” You could feel yourself blushing. “Goodnight Billy and thank you again.”

He seemed to look almost through you and his gaze lingered a minute—“Goodnight y/n, I hope you sleep well.”

Billy watched as you went inside, after closing the door you waved and turned to head up the stairs. He then walked down the steps and started off down the street, little did he know the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen was lurking in the shadows, hot on his heels, and in a jealous rage.

“Get fucked, old man!” “Twice this morning, as a matter of fact,” Victor smarms. “Unlike some people I could name.” “I’m going to kill you with your own skates and make it look like an accident.” Victor throws an arm around his shoulders and squeezes. Hard. “My favorite virgin murderer.”

Yuri and Viktor (chp. 1)

There are few things that give Yuri pleasure—the taste of accomplishment like cinnamon sugar on the back of his tongue after landing a quad; having a comeback so cutting that he practically draws blood; that soft murrf a cat makes when it decides it trusts him; the little green screenshot arrow appearing next to Otabek’s name in Snapchat—but they all pale in comparison to whenever the Russian hockey team visits the rink.

“One of my favorite things ever is Obi-Wan's equal jealousy of artoo and padme. His disdain for "droids" and "politicians" like, babe we can see through you.”

You’re SO right lmao this is exactly how I see it too. I think that’s one of the funniest parts of Wild Space by Karen Miller, the way that him and Padme just absolutely snipe at each other throughout all their interactions. One of my favorite examples there specifically about supposedly revolving around the whole “politician disdain/distrust” is

“There was the faintest derision in Obi-Wan’s clear blue eyes. “He’s a politician, Padmé.” She raised an eyebrow. “So am I. Isn’t that your biggest problem with me?” My biggest problem? No. The answer flashed across his face, as easy to read as any holo-billboard, but he didn’t say the words out loud.”

Like this is such a wild thing to say.. His complete and open disdain for politicians is NOT in fact his biggest problem with her, it’s clear (even to her) that it’s her relationship to Anakin, because he Knows that Anakin is infatuated with her

Oh my god THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS GLORIOUS EXCERPT lmao, he's so embarrassing! I love him! I just love when he cannot keep his petty remarks contained even though he is renowned for his restraint! And I am so excited to read this book. My library doesn't have it so I'm saving up.

#asks #wild space #i'm giving up male authors and only reading stat wars books written by women #hey jealousy #the queen's wardrobe maybe

On the topic of things that don't stop being awesome even as you age: putting on a playlist of songs you like to sing along with/jam out to for any reason whatsoever (you had a shit day, you're in a particular mood, you need a boost, you just want some music).

We don't think anything of doing that as kids or teens. Hell, it's generally expected that we'll listen to our music too loud and annoy the shit out of our parents. But a lot of people treat it as cringe to do the older you get. But the endorphins and power of music don't stop just because you got older. So pick out new faves and old faves, turn the volume up, and let yourself have fun with it.

Sing your heart out. Dance with wild abandon. Rage along with Rage Against the Machine. Feel your eyes well up as you belt along with "This is Me." Let yourself be transported to another place in time by the memory of the first time you heard a song.
