can i get some seulrene angst please
delicious yes i got u (fair warning this is pre long!!!)  …
seulrene meet in their university library
irene is sitting alone at her regular table, trying and failing to study for her advanced statistics test
in the middle of daydreaming about dropping out, seulgi turns up asking if she can sit at irenes table bc everywhere else is full
irene blinks and stares dumbly bc seulgi is lowkey the most adorable human being she has ever seen (the sweater paws are doing something to her heart)
and irene is distracted because seulgi is watching her lecture, knees pulled to her chest, elbows propping her head up, the tips of her fingers peaking out from her sleeves. irene feels her stomach flip uncomfortably
seulgi comes to her table again the next day and the day after that and at the end of the fourth time they sit together, seulgi starts leaving irene little snacks and finally introduces herself after realising she doesnt actually know irenes name
eventually they hang out outside of the library and realise they have mutual friends (seulgi with wendy and irene with yeri; and yeri and wendy with each other)
one day their whole group was meant to hang out but literally everyone bailed citing “personal emergencies” but seulrene didn’t realise this until theyre sitting in a cafe just the two of them
and it’s awkward at first but irene makes a joke about their friends being dumb and they go into this whole tangent of stories about their lives and they look at the time and they might as well get dinner since it’s late and they still wanna continue their conversation
irenes never met a person who could make her scream laugh so loud that people start staring
irenes regular table at the library becomes irene and seulgi’s regular table at the library and somewhere between that day in the cafe and right now, thursday afternoon approximately 3:43pm, does irene realise she has the biggest fattest crush on seulgi
and so she remembers seulgi’s fav snacks, remembers when seulgi’s tests are and helps her study for them, remembers her favourite movies and exhibitions she wants to see, remembers where she always loses her keys and has a sixth sense for when seulgi’s about to trip over her feet
and seulgi for all her clumsiness has a knack for understanding irene’s cold front and chips away at it, and it’s too late for irene to realise that seulgi has crawled her way into her heart and taken up permanent residence there
(she thinks she doesnt mind it)
seulgi runs off to the bathroom for a second and the open notebook catches her eye and irene finds herself picking it up to look at it more closely and it’s a drawing of her, looking otherworldly, almost unreal and irene is shookt. the book slips out of her hands and it lands on another page and it’s irene sipping some coffee, she flips the page and it’s of irene taking a nap, flips the page and it’s irene laughing - the notebook is snatched out of her hands unexpectedly and irene looks up to seulgi is standing there red-faced, stammering, apologetic and horrified but at the same time shes trying to be stern like “you cant just look at peoples things without permission! !!!1!” but irene is just like “this is how you see me?” and it’s a soft™ moment and seulgi has developed foot in mouth syndrome and is like “well yeah! u kind of mean everything 2 me u absolute dumbass !!!”
they start dating - to absolutely no ones surprise
their first kiss is in the middle of a lowkey night, theyre watching movies on irenes laptop in her dorm and sharing a blanket - tbh irene stopped watching the movie about 20 mins ago in place of studying seulgi’s side profile in wonder, her fingers twitching trying not to brush the strand of hair away from seulgi’s forehead. she settles for arranging the blanket more securely around seulgi’s shoulders just in case shes cold, you know? seulgi’s watching her the whole time and when irene looks up, seulgi’s eyes are just sparkly with fond affection and maybe love? but that thought is quickly cut off when seulgi presses her lips to irenes, so softly and gently and carefully that irene feels tears prick the corners of her eyes, she feels like shes going to break
but after that theres so many kisses. kisses in the library, forehead kisses, kisses before class, after class, any time in between; did well on a test? a kiss! did really badly on a test? a kiss!! maybe even an extra one! courtyard kisses, kisses in irenes dorm, in seulgi’s dorm, kisses at breakfast, lunch and dinner, just so many kisses!!
it’s a quiet sunday and seulgi and irene are redoing irenes dorm because seulgi scuffed the wall so badly it needs repainting and why not make a day of it? so here irene is, painting the wall, where it meets the floor bc her gf is clumsy but she is adorable and irene is in love, she thinks she’ll remember this day when theyre old and wrinkly and married
irene notices seulgi pulling away, distancing herself, acting weirdly guilty about something? irene thinks maybe shes done something wrong? is seulgi getting tired of her? tired of the relationship? it goes on for awhile and theres a heavy tension between them so thick, it’s almost tangible. and then one day when seulgi’s bailed on another date, irene shuts down. doesn’t know what to think. maybe seulgi doesnt love her anymore? maybe shes bored? irene knows that sometimes she can be really heavy handed with her affection but ever since seulgi’s pulled away, irene figured that maybe she wants space
seulgi turns up at irenes dorm, uninvited. irene swings the door open to find her gf looking equal parts sheepish and guilty. but shes holding a bag of food from irenes favourite restaurant, irene lets her in.
seulgi explains, hand rubbing the back of her neck, that when she gets into a funk, she just needs to go off and think on her own and is apologising for shutting irene out. irene is quick to forgive her. but as the night goes on, it’s clear that seulgi is feeling guilty for some other reason and when asked, seulgi just. she looks so sad
“a few weeks before we met, i applied for this arts school and i got a letter about 2 weeks ago saying that i got in. it’s really competitive and they only have a few spots available for international students and I didn’t think I’d even get in and I forgot but i got in. I got in,” seulgi whispers. almost as if, any louder and the words would be real.
“did u think i was going to beg you to stay here or something?” irene asks, softly. seulgi frowns deeply.
“no. i knew you were gonna tell me to go. but i don’t want to go. i want to be here with you,” seulgi tells her, desperately, voice cracking.
“u huge idiot, do u think that i wouldnt wait for u??? i would wait forever u huge dumbass!!!!”
the evening takes an obvious downturn. but they try not to notice. the next few weeks are seulrene trying to spend as much time together as possible. irene is trying her best to memorise what seulgi feels like in her arms; how she breathes when she’s asleep; the noises she makes when irene is pinning her to the sheets, marking her neck purple with bruises; how seulgi looks like shes close to tears when irenes made her laugh so hard that she snorts; the little fond sighs seulgi sends irenes way when she catches her staring over their morning coffee; how small she looks in an oversized sweater with the sleeves engulfing her hands completely; the way seulgi’s hands feel, fingers threaded through hers; how she likes to kiss irenes shoulder when theyre in bed; how for some reason when seulgi eats chewing with her mouth open it’s adorable instead of disgusting; and how irene is constantly brushing crumbs off seulgi’s clothes. irene tries her best to remember the slip of seulgi’s spine; the way she looks fully sated and satisfied; how seulgi’s eyes, dark and wide, always regard her with warm, open affection; how they can lay side by side in bed saying nothing for hours but irene doesnt need to hear words to know what seulgi’s feeling
but irene knows it isnt enough
because 2 weeks later, seulgi’s on a plane to paris with irenes heart in her hands and the kiss they share in the airport feels bitterly like a final goodbye
seulgi lands and sends irene photos of her food and the buildings and the friends she’s already made. and irene smiles wistfully
they facetime, and send each other texts every few hours, and schedule “dates” but the distance is so palpable that irene feels her heart ache something new whenever she sees seulgi’s red-rimmed eyes, yawning while sipping on a huge mug of coffee
“we should break up,” irene says. she can feel her heart crack at her own words, the tears visible on seulgi’s lashes even through the shitty facetime quality
“w-why?” seulgi sniffs
“because this isn’t working for us, this distance is going to ruin us completely,” irene finds herself saying, voice wooden and stiff. and she knows shes right because she knows seulgi’s grades arent as good as they could be and irene has failed a test and an assignment already
“wait for me,” seulgi is begging and irene is nodding her head frantically, promising tearfully over and over again that she would wait forever if she had to
so they break up that tuesday night, seulgi in paris and irene in korea. this has to be the worst facetime she’s ever had in her whole life.  
it hurts like nothing shes ever imagined, irene thinks shes never cried this much in her life. and she thinks shes doing well but she catches a whiff of seulgi’s perfume on her hoodie one day and it starts a fresh wave of gut-wrenching tears and her heart cracks into tiny, little pieces all over again
they don’t speak for literal years
but irene knows seulgi’s doing pretty well; she’s already held a few exhibitions, according to wendy. irenes graduated and doing okay for herself at a nice cushy job
wendy didn’t tell her that seulgi was back in korea though, but irene is pretty sure seulgi is back because she would recognise that laugh and perfume anywhere
seulgi turns around and her eyes finds irenes and seulgi is making a beeline towards her. irenes pulse is jumping erratically
“hey irene, it’s been awhile,” seulgi says, giving her a warm look. she looks older. more mature. holds herself like she knows shes grown up. but, irene thinks, fondly, painfully, her voice is exactly the same. wraps irenes name in her mouth exactly the same as she did 6 years ago
“hey,” irene replies, with a smile of her own.
“i want to introduce you to someone,”seulgi says, a grin turning up her face, and beckons a tall, intimidatingly beautiful woman over, “this is sooyoung,” seulgi’s smile grows even brighter and irene feels her heart plummet, connecting the dots, “my fiancee.”
“o-oh, it’s very nice to meet you,” irene is saying, trying her best to sound sincere but she sounds so monotone and robotic and wooden, her throat is closing up and her heart has almost stopped completely, and she has to leave before she starts crying all over seulgi again
so maybe seulgi moved on without telling irene
and maybe irene never moved on. and maybe irene had always waited around for seulgi
maybe waiting forever wasn’t a good idea after all, irene thinks wryly, sitting in her apartment alone, uselessly wiping hot tears from her face that don’t seem to stop no matter how much she tries
irenes not sure how, but it hurts more than that night 6 years ago and shes never felt a pain so profound that it goes all the way to her bones; shes sitting on the floor crying and she feels so ridiculous for thinking this but shes looking at the spot where the wall meets the floor and she realises she didn’t paint it very well

TIPS
There are some skills that nearly anyone can learn in a few moments, but they take years to master. Drywall and plaster repair definitely fit into that category. Just about anyone can pick up a bit of spackle and a putty knife and fill in a hole. Repairing drywall damage in a way that is not visible afterward, however, is a very tricky business. A skilled do-it-yourselfer or a professional painting contractor can do this well, but it takes a combination of science and artistry to achieve.
Tips for Drywall and Plaster Repair ● Use good products. Don’t pull out your semi-dried spackle with hardened, old chunks in it. Use good, smooth spackle or plaster repair compound. ● Use good tools. Use a wide-bladed putty knife with a clean, even blade. ● Under-apply the product. Spread it thinly. ● Sand with good-quality, very fine sandpaper once it is completely dry. ● Prime the spot. Once it’s dry, check again to make sure the patch is invisible. If it isn’t, use more spackle or sanding to get it perfectly smooth. ● Repaint the wall. You need to paint from “break to break.” This refers to any natural line or division on the wall that will disguise the seam between new paint and old paint. Interior corners, trim and similar features can provide this hide.

What are the benefits of venetian plaster?
Venetian plaster brings an unmatched level of beauty, sophistication and elegance to any atmosphere. Venetian plaster is durable, mold resistant, the natural lime plasters we use are VOC- Free and the depth and richness of color is unsurpassed by any other.
What are the benefits of clay plaster?
American Clay plasters produce negative ions that will not only help to neutralize the electromagnetic effects created by computers, appliances and synthetic plastics, but also help to eliminate static charge on walls. Walls and ceilings stay clean and will not attract dust. Also, American Clay plasters help to filter air of pollen and dander. The negative charge emitted by clay causes particulates in the air to clump together and literally fall to the floor where they can be vacuumed up.
Can venetian plaster be applied to surfaces other than walls and ceilings?
Absolutely. Venetian plaster and clay plaster can be applied to just about any surface including drywall, fireplace surfaces, brick, wood, concrete, painted surfaces and much more.
What other names is venetian plaster referred to?
Decorative Stucco in Solana Beach Italian Decorative Plaster Solana Beach Depending what part of the world you live in, venetian plaster is often referred to as old world plaster, decorative stucco, venetian stucco, Italian plaster, polished plaster, architectural plaster or decorative plaster.
Are faux finishes the same thing as venetian plaster?
“Faux” means artificial, imitation, false. Faux painting is a decorative painting technique and applied to replicate materials such as marble. Venetian plaster is true to its kind, it is an artistic wall and ceiling finish derived from real limestone, marble dust and natural color pigment. The end result of venetian plaster creates an appearance of actual solid stone that faux cannot imitate.
What is the process of applying venetian plaster?
This is where the experience of a drywall finisher comes into play. First we prep the walls and ceilings to eliminate humps, bumps and dips, rough areas, torn drywall, fix and straighten any necessary areas, drywall patching existing holes and skim necessary zones. Once the walls and ceilings have been prepped and primed to a dust free substrate, the lime- based plaster is then applied by trowel. To attain a certain look, venetian plaster usually requires multiple layers and each layer to completely dry before the next layer can be applied. Walls and ceilings are precisely textured then before the final layer is fully dry the finisher then burnishes for a sheen. It is truly a remarkable transformation.

TIPS
There are some skills that nearly anyone can learn in a few moments, but they take years to master. Drywall and plaster repair definitely fit into that category. Just about anyone can pick up a bit of spackle and a putty knife and fill in a hole. Repairing drywall damage in a way that is not visible afterward, however, is a very tricky business. A skilled do-it-yourselfer or a professional painting contractor can do this well, but it takes a combination of science and artistry to achieve.
Tips for Drywall and Plaster Repair ● Use good products. Don’t pull out your semi-dried spackle with hardened, old chunks in it. Use good, smooth spackle or plaster repair compound. ● Use good tools. Use a wide-bladed putty knife with a clean, even blade. ● Under-apply the product. Spread it thinly. ● Sand with good-quality, very fine sandpaper once it is completely dry. ● Prime the spot. Once it’s dry, check again to make sure the patch is invisible. If it isn’t, use more spackle or sanding to get it perfectly smooth. ● Repaint the wall. You need to paint from “break to break.” This refers to any natural line or division on the wall that will disguise the seam between new paint and old paint. Interior corners, trim and similar features can provide this hide.

“Faux” means artificial, imitation, false. Faux painting is a decorative painting technique and applied to replicate materials such as marble. Venetian plaster is true to its kind, it is an artistic wall and ceiling finish derived from real limestone, marble dust and natural color pigment.

What is the process of applying venetian plaster?
This is where the experience of a drywall finisher comes into play. First we prep the walls and ceilings to eliminate humps, bumps and dips, rough areas, torn drywall, fix and straighten any necessary areas, drywall patching existing holes and skim necessary zones. Once the walls and ceilings have been prepped and primed to a dust free substrate, the lime- based plaster is then applied by trowel. To attain a certain look, venetian plaster usually requires multiple layers and each layer to completely dry before the next layer can be applied. Walls and ceilings are precisely textured then before the final layer is fully dry the finisher then burnishes for a sheen. It is truly a remarkable transformation.
