Gonna be making a kinda ranking/opinion list of the various Sanrio animes I’ve been watching over the past year or so. This will be edited accordingly as I cross some series off my list. I’m not really a writer so my writing might be confusing but I’ll try my best to keep it comprehensive.

First some kinda... not really ground rules but still like something I should say.

I’m not watching every Sanrio anime out there. Just stuff that’s readily available on youtube or anime streaming sites. I’m not gonna go out of my way to download a torrent of an old OVA or something.

I’m also passing on Show By Rock, Sanrio Boys and the Gudetama series. I don’t really gel with those characters and Gudetama is still technically going strong with over 1,000 episodes and I don’t have the time or energy to care about that. Mr. Men/Little Miss will also be skipped over as it was acquired by Sanrio after the shows were made.

Anyways enough bs:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MOVIES:

Joe and the Rose: The first Sanrio film and made by Takashi Yanase. Bittersweet and short. (Alright) *Subbed*

Little Jumbo: Pretty sad, another Takashi Yanase film. (Alright) *Subbed*

The Mouse and his Child: Honestly kinda boring. Feels like a movie you’d find in the bargain bin or one of those movies you didn’t watch much of as a kid but you still had the tape of it. (Skip) *Dubbed*

Ringing Bell: Yet another Takashi Yanase film and it’s the most famous one for a good reason. Honestly better than the first two of his movies and something I could watch again and again *even if that sounds horrible lol* (EXTREMELY RECOMMENDED!) *Subbed and Dubbed*

Metamorphoses/Winds of Change: This one’s kinda hard to pin down. I didn’t mind watching it but it can be boring to some. I’d say give it a shot for the first 20 minutes or so and if you’re not interested you can skip it since it’s all vignettes. I do enjoy the disco tracks for it tho. (Alright) *Dubbed*

Nutcracker Fantasy: Really rad adaptation. Honestly the best stop motion movie ever. (EXTREMELY RECOMMENDED!) *Subbed and Dubbed*

Unico: As a whole, the series is golden, but the best ones *and the easiest ones to find* are The Fantastic Adventures of Unico and Unico in the Island of Magic. Don’t sleep on White Cloud and Black Feather if you can find it tho. (EXTREMELY RECOMMENDED!) *Subbed for White Cloud Black Feather, Subbed and Dubbed for Adventures and Magic Island, Raw for Save Our Fragile Earth*

Oshin: This one slipped under my movie radar until I went onto Sanrio’s wikipedia page. It doesn’t seem to be subbed but there’s a VHS rip on youtube that I watched recently and tbh it’s just meh. Other than some pretty iffy stuff that would require a content warning it’s just not that interesting. I think it’d be better if you possibly watched the drama it’s based off of since it seems to be for the fans of the drama but as a stand alone movie it’s just kinda whatever. Maybe if it was subbed it would be a little more interesting. (Meh) *Raw*

The Sea Prince and the Fire Child: Another dope movie from Sanrio. I enjoy the art style and backgrounds for this movie a lot. (EXTREMELY RECOMMENDED!) *Subbed and Dubbed*

The Ideon (A Contact/Be Invoked): I found the Ideon series as a whole to be kinda boring to watch. I’m not a mech person so this doesn’t particularly appeal to me. I guess these movies could be used instead to watch the series instead of the show since A Contact is a recap movie and Be Invoked is an alternate ending but still it wasn’t really my kinda thing. But many other people enjoy it so it’s a shrug from me. (Meh/Skip if mech and depression is not your thing) *Subbed*

A Journey Through Fairyland: Feels like another bargain bin movie but not as boring as A Mouse and his Child was. I’ve seen this compared to Fantasia but with a plot since it’s got a lot of classical music inserts and that seems about accurate. (Alright) *Dubbed*

Mouse Story (George and Gerald’s Adventure): Really good and really fun! Wanted to watch this for a long time since it was paired with the Cinnamoroll movie! (EXTREMELY EXCELLENT!) *Subbed*

Cinnamoroll the Movie: Surprisingly, I didn’t vibe with this on first watching. I was hoping it would be as good as the Hamtaro movies but it didn’t just jam as hard as it should’ve. It’s still really cute tho! (Pretty Fun!) *Subbed*

Jewelpet the Movie (Sweets Dance Princess): Not a bad little movie. I heard this one bombed at the box office which is sad but it’s really not as bad as one might think. Prolly did better with the kids that watch the show instead of the parents that were prolly dragged along. That being said, you def need to watch the show first before watching the movie. (Pretty Fun!) *Subbed*

Onegai My Melody (Yu and Ai): A small short that was shown before the Jewelpet movie. Just a silly little short of Kuromi trying to ruin My Melo’s barbecue. (Pretty Fun!) *Subbed*

Go-chan and His Forest Friends (Moko-chan and Marvelous Creatures): This is another Sanrio movie I have just discovered recently. To my surprise it was actually officially subbed and put onto youtube! I’m hoping the sequel will eventually get the same treatment. Anyways it’s cute! I think it’s based on a TV mascot and Sanrio just helped with the animation which is great to hear since I used to think that the Jewelpet movie kinda screwed them out of making movies for a while. It’s short, less than an hour and if you need something short and cute to watch then I’d recommend it! (Pretty Fun!) *Subbed*

Jewelpet Attack Travel!: This was going to be a short played before another movie unrelated to Sanrio but COVID happened and both of them got post-poned. IDK if the movie proper ever released but a few months ago the Jewelpet short aired on NicoNico in a special stream. It’ll be subbed soonventually but I thought it was good~ (Pretty Fun!) *Raw but might be Subbed in the future*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

TV SHOWS/OVAS

Kitty and Mimmy’s New Umbrella: I believe this is the first short involving Kitty. Just Kitty and Mimmy mucking about with a new umbrella... nothing too exciting outside of the fact it’s the first Sanrio short with Kitty. (Alright) *Raw*

Sanrio Anime Festival: A mixed bag of Sanrio adaptations of different fairy tales featuring different characters as well as original stories. Some of them were dubbed into English under Sanrio’s Hello Kitty and Keroppi VHS library. (Pretty Fun!) *Subbed and Dubbed depending on the OVA*

Sanrio Video: Another mixed bag of various Sanrio characters and stories. They pull from popular characters such as Kitty and Keroppi but include some obscure friends such as Vaudeville Duo and Patty and Jimmy. Again, some of these stories got dubbed and more recently, fansubbed by a youtube channel called Starshooter. (Pretty Fun!) *Subbed and Dubbed depending on the OVA*

Hello Kitty’s Furry Tale Theater: One of the most famous Sanrio works in the States at least. Not too bad, if you like old 80′s/90′s cartoons you’ll like it. (Pretty Fun!) *Dubbed*

Flint the Time Detective: Sanrio’s only shounen series so far. If you enjoy monster collecting series, you’d enjoy the heck out of this. Some episodes were pretty boring tho but when it’s 39 episodes long you’re gonna get some lame episodes. (Pretty Fun!) *Subbed and Dubbed*

Hello Kitty’s Paradise: Paradise in Japan is mostly a bunch of Kitty shorts with some 7 minute animes (including the later introduced Sugarbunnies, Hello Kitty’s Apple Forest, etc.) and some music videos from Puroland. AFAIK the third season of Kitty’s Paradise is what got dubbed and distributed over here. It’s cute, it’s prolly what a lot of people grew up with. It’s not as good as the Sanrio Video OVAs but they’re still nice. (Pretty Fun!) *Dubbed for Season 3, Raw for others*

Hello Kitty’s Stump Village: Essentially Pingu but with Sanrio characters. There’s really not much substance to it IMO, it’s cute of course but it could’ve been better. I do lowkey enjoy that the dub narrator (Wendee Lee) reads her narration like a mom telling a story. It is better than Adventures of Kitty and Friends tho. (Alright) *Dubbed*

The Adventures of Hello Kitty and Friends: Gonna be real, this one is big boring. This is a good example of a bargain bin DVD series. I don’t mind some mindless entertainment but this is just really bland mush. Writing isn’t good neither is the animation or the voice acting. My only positive about this show is the fact that they use rare friends for background characters like Kururin and Paupipo. (Skip) *Dubbed*

Onegai My Melody: Here we go, we’re getting into the most excellent stuff! If you enjoy either My Melody or Kuromi and also wanna see where Kuromi got her start then you better be watching this series. (EXTREMELY EXCELLENT!) *Subbed*

Onegai My Melody (Kuru Kuru Shuffle): Another excellent season of My Melo and Kuromi going at it. If you watched the first season you better watch this one too! (EXTREMELY EXCELLENT!) *Subbed*

Onegai My Melody (Sukkiri): Now this is where My Melo takes a little bit of a hit. Episodes have been halved to around 10 minutes. However this doesn’t mean it’s all bad. It does shave away a lot of the boring extra human plots and mostly leaves it to My Melo, Kuromi and their critter friends. People that enjoyed the middle school drama of the first two seasons might not enjoy it but I thought it was fine. (Pretty fun!) *Raw*

Onegai My Melody (Kirara): And this is where My Melo tanks. In between a slow start, shoddy animation for most of the series and bland plot points it’s really sad to see My Melo and Kuromi’s show reduced to this. And it’s also big sad that this is one of the few animations that has my absolute favorite Sanrio characters of all time, Lloromannic in it. Berry and Cherry got robbed. (Skip) *Raw*

Sugarbunnies: A cute little mini series about the Sugarbunnies and their myriad of friends in France. Each episode is about 7 minutes long so you can essentially watch the entire show in one afternoon. Keeps it light and easy going for those few minutes and it doesn’t really get boring either. Characterization of the buns is light since there’s about 14 of them in total but it’s not much of a dealbreaker. (Pretty fun!) *Subbed*

Sugarbunnies Chocolat: A sequel to the first season. More or less of the same as season 1 with the sweets competition except with a few new characters and more of a focus on chocolate sweets. There is an interesting story that happens near the end of the third of the show! (Pretty fun!) *Subbed*

Sugarbunnies Fleur: Sugarbunnies steer away from the sweets and now they’re focusing on reviving an old garden in the forest at the back of Sophia’s school. There’s not really a change in tone except there’s just no competitions to worry about. Still as cute as ever! (Pretty fun!) *Raw, subs in progress!*

Hello Kitty’s Apple Forest (Fantasy): Another show that aired on Kitty’s Paradise. This show is another short one like Sugarbunnies and involved Kitty and Mimmy being isekai’d thanks to a magical apple amulet. They’re asked to cure the Apple Forest’s Fairy Queen from a sleeping curse. Unfortunately for them, flying squirrels Monga and Montine are up to no good and try to stop the twins. I enjoyed it! I do enjoy how short it was (13 episodes) so you can speed through it easily. I’d definitely would recommend it for a lazy afternoon watch. I also enjoyed all the fairy tale references in all the episodes. (Pretty fun!) *Raw, will be picked up for subs soonventually*

Hello Kitty’s Apple Forest (Mystery): A sequel to Fantasy, it changes it up with Kitty and Mimmy solving various mysteries all around the Apple Forest and trying to figure out where the prince of the neighboring kingdom has disappeared too. Kitty and Mimmy this time around get magical outfits to wear each episode. Personally I think this is the weakest of the Apple Forest trilogy but again, it’s something you can plow through in an afternoon so it’s not like watching a long 52 episode show. (Alright) *Raw, will be picked up for subs soonventually*

Hello Kitty’s Apple Forest (Parallel Town): After Mystery, the Apple Forest begs Kitty for a brand new adventure and dumps her in a town similar to her home town of London except populated by more human like fairies. Kitty joins fairy girl Emily in finding Mimmy who mysteriously disappeared in the forest and figuring out who in the world Akuro is and what her goals are. This is a bit longer than both Fantasy and Mystery combined. I definitely recommEnd checking it out for Akuro alone if you wanna see what a Kuromi Kitty counterpart. (Pretty fun!) *Raw, will be picked up for subs soonventually*

Usahana (Yumemiru Ballerina): The only animated series that has Usahana in it! Aired alongside Hello Kitty Apple Forest. Usahana dreams of being a ballerina and is excited to go to Etoile Ballet Academy and become a ballerina. Joined by new friends, Rose, Mary, Anzu, Ivy, Nuts, Sakura and rival Azami, Hana will be sure to make her dream come true. Gonna be real, this show ends randomly. Hana is still in school doing her best but it just ends with no real conclusion. It’s also very short with only 7 episodes. Not sure what the thought process there was making it so short but since Hana barely has any anime appearances besides this one, she really needs a reboot! It is EXTREMELY good to see her tho and I love her little friends including the twins Rose and Mary, they’re such scamps! (Pretty fun!) *Raw, will be picked up for subs soonventually*

Kero Kero Keroppi (Hasunoue Town Kiki Ippatsu!): Also airing alongside Hello Kitty Apple Forest. This includes Keroppi and friends gaining super powers and acting like a sentai squad to save their town from an evil toad scientist. It’s also a short anime that didn’t even last as long as Usahana with having 6 episodes. TBH it’s not even that cute. Keroppi and friends get more human like proportions and it’s really strange and kinda unsettling. Really not recommended which is sad since Keroppi is such a cool little guy. (Skip) *Raw*

Charmmy Kitty OVAS: Composed of three different OVAs, it’s interesting to see the adventures of Kitty’s pet cat and Daniel’s pet hamster (Sugar). While the first OVA is just 30 minutes of them goofing off around the house with barely a word the second and third ones is where they get juicy. The second one introduces some secondary characters like Sugar’s friends and Charmmy’s neighbors. The third one is just a straight up retelling of Alice in Wonderland but with Charmmy. All in all it’s cute! I’m glad that Charmmy has a little love to her besides merch. (Pretty fun!) *Raw, will be picked up for subs soonventually*

Jewelpet: And here comes the big one. This is Sanrio’s biggest show they’ve ever had spanning at least 6 seasons. (That means like 300 episodes I gotta go through rip) but anyways. The first show starts as kind of a “Gotta Catch ‘em All” show of finding the Jewelpet of the day and having them solve whatever problem happens thanks to Diana. It’s a solid opening season especially since every pet gets their own episode which is big important since some of the later pets get shoved into the background for the more popular ones. (Pretty fun!) *Currently being subbed*

Jewelpet Tinkle: A magical girl series where Ruby and Labra become the partners of Akari Sakura and lead her journey to become the JewelStar. Favorite girl Labra joins the cast permanently and Sango is featured heavily! I can see why this is the more popular of the seasons tho I do lowkey miss how much of a dipshit Ruby was in the other series. (Pretty fun!) *Subbed*

Jewelpet Sunshine: This is just an extended shitpost of a kid’s anime and I love every minute of it. Ruby and friends are now in their senior year of high school and are just trying to survive. References are everywhere and nothing’s funnier than seeing a straight up hearing “Born to Be Wild” while a polar bear rides an alpaca like a motorcycle. (EXTREMELY EXCELLENT!) *Subbed*

Aggretsuko: TBH, I think EVERYBODY knows how good this show is. Personally I still have to finish it. I always just watch the first season and then totally forget about the rest. I KNOW it’s good, it’s just me getting off my ass to watch it. Also remember to watch the TBS shorts when you find them. (EXTREMELY EXCELLENT!) *Subbed and Dubbed, Subbed for TBS shorts*

Let’s Play with Hello Kitty: A short series aimed towards a very very young crowd. Follows Kitty and her new neighbors Eric and Amy and their friend Harry as they learn about the world around them. It’s cute, but it’s definitely not for me. I’m surprised it’s officially dubbed but it seems like it’s only on Apple TV or some obtuse service like that. (Alright) *Subbed and Dubbed*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

WEB SERIES

Chibimaru: A bunch of shorts featuring Chibimaru the puppy and his friends. Not much substance to them since they’re all about 20 or so seconds long, but they’re good for a quick watch especially if you enjoy Chibimaru. (EXTREMELY EXCELLENT!) *Raw, no dialogue*

Pankunchi: More substance than the Chibimaru shorts with dialogue and a minute long runtime, it features two types of bread and a panda that eats bread going into a magical pocket world. (Pretty fun!) *Subbed*

Nyokki and Penne: There’s only two shorts of these kittens and they’re not bad. I wouldn’t mind if there were more. So I can’t really say too much about it (Alright) *Raw, no dialogue*

Tenorikuma: A stop motion series about extremely small red pandas running a cafe. I never see these little guys much these days even on Hello Sweet Days. But the shorts are OK. (Alright) *Raw, no dialogue*

Little Hello Kitty: This is a strange one. It’s about a plush Hello Kitty going on a big adventure with a bunch of different creatures looking for a home. After 15 or so episodes it just ends with a dance number with no closure. I kinda found it boring and a little hard to watch since the English voice acting was kinda... off? Really just people reading their lines and not putting anything into it. I wouldn’t recommend it. (Skip) *Dubbed*

Hummingmint: One of my absolute favorite modern Sanrio characters. Hummingmint explores the seasons around her. Rather than being fully animated, it’s just a puppet. It also has a live action portion near the end with merch based on the short. It’s really sad they only made four of these because I love these shorts so much and I wish Hummingmint was featured more prominently lately. (EXTREMELY EXCELLENT!) *Raw, no dialogue*

Marumofubiyori: Another one of my favorite modern Sanrio characters. Tells the story of an extremely lazy baby polar bear living at an aquarium employee’s home. What’s good is that Sanrio made official subs for these as well<3 I’m hoping there’s more sometime soon. (EXTREMELY EXCELLENT!) *Subbed*

Cogimyun: And yet another favorite modern Sanrio character, this is about a little flour spirit that wants to become a rice ball. The are two different series of this, one where Cogi is looking after her grandpa’s apartment and meets all the wacky tenants of the building and a second slice of life where she’s in kindergarten. Both are must watch IMO. (EXTREMELY EXCELLENT!) *Subbed*

Hello Kitty’s Supercute Adventures: Very small webisodes of various Sanrio characters. I love that the background cast includes characters like Baku and Doki Doki Yummychums and the fact that they added in Cinnamon after the second season. Really good if you need a quick pick me up. (Pretty fun!) *Dubbed*

Hello Kitty and Friends Mini Tales 3D: Another webisode youtube series. This is def something made to sell playsets and for little little kids. It’s cute but it’s not as good as Supercute Adventures. (Skip) *Raw, no dialogue*

Sweet Moments with Hello Kitty: Very short minute long webisodes of Kitty doing day to day stuff. It’s cute. Nothing special. (Alright) *Raw, no dialogue*

Kuromi’s Pretty Journey: Kuromi returns in her own series along with her BFF Baku and she’s traveling the globe with new friends in toe to try and find her long lost sister Romina. It’s a short series you can watch in like an hour and it’s thankfully officially subbed! (EXTREMELY EXCELLENT!) *Subbed*

Cinnamon Anime Da Mon: A series of youtube shorts featuring Cinnamon and his friends in their day to day. It has the animated debut of Cinnamon’s cat, Shirotaro. Currently as of writing there are about 45 episodes with more being added every few days. Recommended for any Cinnamoroll fan! (EXTREMELY EXCELLENT!) *Raw*

Beatcats Nekosta: This is kinda iffy to put on here, but the youtube description says it’s a short anime so I might as well. Nekosta is essentially a vlog-ish kind of anime for Beatcats and they answer questions and go into detail about their history. Animation wise, it’s really just them sitting down and talking and most of the animation is just tweens so it’s not THAT exciting. It definitely could use some subs since I’m not that great at Japanese yet. Currently there’s about 8 episodes with possibly more being made soon. (Alright, would only really recommend if you’re a Beatcats fan) *Raw*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Uh yeah, I can’t write. Enjoy a shitty long post that’ll be updated eventually when I watch like everything else.

#Mika shushup #Long post #A long long post of dumb Sanrio opinions #Sanrio anime #I'll prolly tag it as that so I remember where it is when I come back to it.

Word of the Day Story [Jan. 10th, 2023]

Pure black. Whistling music. Primordial soup.[1] Cold. The sound of movements of wind, and then finally, light.[2] Smith struggled opening his eyes from what felt like a thousands year rest, adjusting to the reflected light which shined over him. After his first conscious breath in his remarkably intact helmet, he next breathed in his surroundings, though there wasn’t much to see. Stepping was harder than Smith had imagined, but it wasn’t long before Smith was back on his way to Mont Pèlerin[3], the small outcrop which was seen by all participants as humanity’s next genesis. Out of the many engineers, physicists, and likewise utopians of the project, only the most flexanimous[4] of them were sent further into the stars.

Smith was nearly back to the settlement, following vehicle tracks and signs he had difficulty reading because of his thick dialect of Yankeese[5]. Though, as he got closer, a dread began to fill him, as the clear walls of the spheres they called home were covered in thick vegetation.[6] As Smith entered through the airlock[7] and took off his helmet, the first thing to strike him was a thick scent of vinnewedness[8] in the air, one he could only imagine if the air outside was breathable. Each step he took he couldn’t help but trample over the thick vine that now made up the floor, creating a gushing noise as his foot fell through to the bottom.[9] He called out, but to no response. Though, as he would soon find out, he wasn’t alone, and this was made quite evident as Smith entered the barracks to the sight of an outstretched palm around the corner. Smith was immediately relieved to see this, though as he turned the corner he was only struck with horror. The hand he saw was attached to an arm that could’ve been the length of a hose, and bending and turning like it had the form of one. He turned in shock only to see more of his teammates as amorphous things of flesh and sinew, but surely not bone. And at the center of it all, the origin of the vegetation which filled every chamber of their artificial habitat, a benign tree which they’d seen tens of thousands of outside. All that Smith could do was begin to realize the similarities of what were his teammates and the lifeformsms[10] which harassed them outside.[11]

----

1 Stolen straight from Disco Elysium. I never finished it, at most I put like, four hours into it. It was one of those things where I pirate a game late on a school night, end up playing it until its a bit too late, and then never pick it up again. I'll likely never see what the rest of the game has to offer despite how much some of my friends have liked it, but some lines still stick out to me from when I ran out of money on the first night.

2 I remember when my History & Structure of the English Language teacher read this aloud, after she finished she went back to this line to say how much she liked it. That made me pretty happy. Though, I don't know, it doesn't flow too well? And it's not even wholly original. I'm glad she liked it but there was just a bit of guilt underneath it.

3 A direct reference to Half-Earth Socialism, and uh, reality too I guess. Specifically to the Mont Pelerin Society, a kind of neoliberal internationale I guess you could call it. I'm not sure if I had finished Half-Earth Socialism by this point or not, but it would come to basically define my current ideological standings in at least some part. For a bit I was pretty annoying about it, getting into arguments about how nuclear power shouldn't be the end goal, which is kinda dumb to argue about what is a better answer to fossil fuels, but y'know, that's sorta just what theorybrain does sometimes. I could get a bit caught up in ideals, but I've mostly tempered out now. The closure of nuclear power facilities is bad, even if moving to actual renewables should come alongside the move away from fossil fuels. But I was dumb, this is me 6 months ago we're talking about, a mere child. In classic pseud style, this whole story is actually a metaphor for the ills of ecocide, the impossiblity of truly understanding the mechanisms of nature, etc. I'm not sure if it does a great job at getting that across, but as part of the requirements I could only have one page for this whole story, so I worked with what I had. Had to cull quite a few sentences to get it underneath that limit. But look at me now! I can write forever. This is what true liberation feels like.

4 This actually isn't the full document for this story, as it has an earlier page with the definitions for each of the colored words. The point of this project, the Word of the Day Story, was to use these antiquated terms the class would get from a calendar full of them, and to synthesize a few into a short story. We got to pick which ones from a limited selection, though I think I chose mine pretty randomly. I didn't want to spend too much time selecting and have the whole class waiting on me. I'm a bit of a coward. Once I got all my words I eventually decided I wanted to do a horror-ish sci-fi story, inspired by the previously stated book, refer to [3]. Here's what flexanimous actually means, taken from the first page:

"flexanimous, adj. (/flɛksænɪməs/)

Having the power to bend or influence the mind."

Not sure if I actually used that correctly here. Not like it really matters though. Words are what we decie they are, and considering I'm the only current user of the word, I get to decide the meaning. It means you can make up your mind and have a strong resolve now.

5 "Yankeese, n. (/jaŋˈkiːz/)

American English."

Pretty self-explanatory for that one, though I use it more like an accent here. I think I used to think it was funny that the American kinda struggled with the internationalism of the mission, but its difficult for me to remember. Considered going on here about my worries about my poor memory but I don't need to put that down, I've thought about it enough.

6 Also a reference to the biospheres referenced in the beginning of Half-Earth Socialism. For the real biospheres, they call Earth "Biosphere 1." What nerds.

7 At this time, I had also finished or been watching The Martian in my film class. It probably contributed a lot to the idea of wanting to do a sci-fi story in the first place. My History & Structure of the English Language teacher was also actually my film teacher as well, just due to a quirk in scheduling. It's weird that I saw her twice every day for a whole semester, but now she's resigned here, to the footnotes. Not like many of my other teachers fare much better though. Highlighted 'airlock' here because it reminded me of the scene where the airlock explodes in The Martian.

8 "vinnewedness, adj. (/vɪnoʊedness/)

Mustiness, mouldiness.

Womby vaultages, hollow caverns"

This is the word that really made me decide on the horror aspect to the sci-fi elements I've mentioned previously. I sorta have a thing for gross horror. I've always liked horror, but it wasn't until I read Uzumaki, and likely 3/4ths of the rest of Junji Ito's works, that I decided that it was now an aspect of me. I didn't really know I liked gross/body horror until I read him either. Most of the gross stuff later in the story is directly inspired by the variety of Ito works I've read. It's a collection that spans from my bedroom here to my bedroom in my father's house an hour and a half away. He's gotten me all of my books, but I brought some here to read while I'm away. For some reason, writing that out made me feel a bit guilty. But to continue, my dad has always been the impetus for, well, a lot of my interests, but particularly horror. It was basically just him, and me at home looking at TribeTwelve analyses on my first laptop as a 13 year old. We've watched a lot of horror movies together with his big portrait of Lovecraft leering at us from the corner. I can't remember much from when I was young but I can still remember that night, seeing him carry it into the old apartment. He had got it from some woman? I'm not sure on the details of how he procured it exactly. But its this huge thing, this glow-in-the-dark looking paint on canvas. It's been leering at me for quite a while now. I even used to sleep under the thing in the old apartment.

9 There was this other kid in my class who said he liked my story after the teacher finished reading it. "Gross, but in a good way." It was what I was going for so I was pretty glad. I think after the teacher finished this line, they went "ough!"

10 A genuine spelling mistake that genuinely haunts me. Thinking about my old teacher having to read over this and correct it in her head makes me really embarassed.

11 The whole "becoming the life which had once inhabited the planet" concept comes from a Ray Bradbury story I had to read for one of my classes some grades back. I can't remember the name of it, but it was about this batch of space colonists sent to Mars, and slowly overtime they began using the old alien names for locations(?), their bodies transforming, habits changing, eventually becoming the aliens that had once been vanquished. I like a good bit of Bradbury stuff. I've read Farenheit 451, I think even watched some film adaptions of stories with my dad, and then I had that class where we spent a while talking about him, reading stories and watching short film adapations. Horror units in English are always fun until they get to Edgar Allan Poe.

Ending note:

Seeing all these influences put to word reminds me pretty starkly that I've always had an issue with creativity when it comes to, well, being creative, whether it be writing or what have you. I have a lot of artistic concepts I like but I never really know how to turn them my own, and even the metaphor of the story is based off something I was reading, with nothing of my own added. All art is derivative, but it often feels like what I create is just my influences put into a blender, and it isn't really greater than the sum of its parts - it can't be. Hell, even this method of analyzing comes from me reading House of Leaves recently. I've been wanting to dot a work with footnotes and I finally figured out a good reason to. The impetus of good art is "I could do that but better," but what do you do when you see good art? All I can manage is an imitation. I'm glad I could at least get some humanity to paper though. It's been a bit too long. This isn't of my own inspiration of course, I met a really interesting girl recently. My writing isn't as elegant as her's, mine's much more uh, Johnny Truant, though I guess that fits. Mood writing is pretty scary for me, and sorta makes me wonder if my lack of memory is more voluntary than anything. Proceeding though, that's the last piece of creative writing I've done in quite a while. Well, disregarding alternate history related things. I don't really hold those to the same regard, for whatever reason. Maybe I'll humanize some more of my writing at a later time.

So I made a tier list on all the Black Space soundtracks. So here are my rankings. (I had to make a twitter account for this worst day of my life I deactivated it immediately after I made this)

Anyways, allow me to explain my choices to you, going from the bottom up. (images on the tierlist courtesy of the OMORI wiki)

D TIER

Drone (Scribble Area)

It’s exactly what it says. A track that just drones on and on and on. Not much music wise is it? Very boring imo.

Friendsssssss. (Mirror Area)

It’s just distorted sounds. Boooo lame get off that stage boooooooooooo

C TIER

Friends. (Neighbour Area)

It’s just a Lost at a Sleepover remix with a long note and a distortion. Was very close to putting this in D but at least the first part is okay to listen to.

Waiting For….. (Faceless Area)

I really do not know how to describe this one. But it’s just…..not very exciting. It’s just a bunch of sounds.

Calm (Town Area)

I could barely hear it. Like most of the time it’s silence. Fitting for the area, but as a soundtrack I want to hear more of it. Aside from my gripes with the silence it’s pretty nice. I actually had this in B beforehand but then bumped it down to C. But this is a high C. Like just on the edge of a B.

August/Water (Beach Area)

I do not get why people like August/Water so much. Like it’s okay, just not spectacular. It’s kinda relaxing, I guess??? To me it’s just mid. Not great not bad.

B TIER

Nawa (Treehouse Areq)

It’s pretty good. It’s nice on the ears and relaxing in a weird sort of way if you catch my drift.

Fleur (Pain Area)

Really the same as Nawa. I mean it’s less good than Nawa but it’s not trash. Oddly relaxing and it reminds me of this image

Bloom (Watermelon Area)

Haha funny Basil explode into watermelon track. Anyways it’s a funky little thing. I like the drums(?) in it, but I couldn’t find a reason to place it any higher than B. So it’s going in B.

Welcome Again (Main Hub)

For a remix of the main White Space theme, I enjoy it. There’s not a lot to say beyond “White Space remix” but it’s just. neat

A TIER

Distance (Disco Area)

I really like how it sounds so childish. Like it sounds like a distorted sunrise. It’s like a track for the end of a horror where you’ve managed to escape from the monster and are running to freedom, watching the sun rise over the horizon, but the the monster appears before you, cutting off your path to freedom and trapping you forever. Perfect for the cartoony aesthetics of this room.

Glade (Backyard Area)

It sounds so devastated and upset. Like you’ve done something wrong and hurt someone you love. But there’s no one to help, you’re alone, and you can’t help them either, so you just sit and watch them as they’re in pain. It’s like repressed despair that’s finally bubbling to the surface. It sounds like being betrayed but someone you loved the most or betraying someone who you care for deeply but you have no choice but to hurt them. And I love it.

5Ths (Spider Area)

When I hear this I picture shaking hands and nervous sweating and just general anxiety. I see someone somewhere they shouldn’t be, walking quickly so they’re not noticed with a creeping feeling of dread rising up their spine. Like there’s something bad about to happen, and this is moments right before.

Temple (Church Of Something Interior)

To me Temple speaks of being in disguise amongst enemies, rising a staircase with all eyes on you. This is your one and only shot at taking them down, so use it wisely. I like how it’s funky and you can bop your head to it a little bit. And it’s relaxing too.

Numbers (Reef Area)

I was so super close to making this an S tier but there are some parts that sounded disjointed that held this back from being S tier. But it’s still a high A song. The German counting is very cool as well. It does have the underwater vibes, like you’re down deep and you’re starting to hear voices, and you don’t know if it’s real or you’re imagining things.

S TIER

56-12-2 (Punishment Area)

I fucking love this track man it’s so funky. And I love how it’s a reference to CAS acid that makes your neurons fire off less and makes you calmer. Which makes sense for an area where you cut someone open (rip Mewo) anyways I love just vibing to this track. I don’t have a scenario connected to this track, only vibes.

Come and See (Raft Area)

It sounds like you’re slowly walking down a long forest path. You know that there’s something terrible at the end of that path. And you know that it’s meant for you. But you know you have to look. Or else there will be consequences. I love how relaxing and unsettling it is. Super cool track.

Spaces In-Between (Rain Area)

Man Spaces In-Between is so fucking underrated what. It’s relaxing it’s calming it’s somber it’s perfect for this little room. It feels like a lazy, rainy afternoon with your friends where everyone is indoors playing games, and you’re sitting at the window, just watching. Eyes drifting closed and at peace.

White Pillars (Fishbowl Area)

White Pillars is even more underrated. It sounds like distress and peace at the same time. Mental conflict, guilt. Kneeling at a grave knowing you’re the reason that person is no longer where with us. It sounds like crying. I love White Pillars so much one of my fave OMORI tracks of all time.

Orchard (Church Of Something Mountain)

This song sounds like poison slowly killing you. Like escapism. Like Basil’s catchphrase of “everything is going to be okay”. You’re surrounded by haze but you know that everything is going to be okay. It’s being surrounded by repressed memories, ignoring them and choosing to live in a fake reality. Ignorance is bliss, everything is going to be okay.

Darkiplier x GN reader & onesided, slight yandere, Actor Mark x GN Reader

My take on both Dark and Actor Mark are in love with the reader, but reader loves and chose Dark, so because of that that Actor Mark creates games (adwm, ahwn, iswm) for reader to play so he can try and get them to fall for him instead.

“Wow,” Mark said as the two of you walked towards the Warp Core “come on it’s time to end this. That is if that thing actually works. Guess I still got a lot to learn about wormholes. Does this feel right to you? This moment feels kinda final”

As Mark was talking something overcame you and you turned around to walk back down the hall you’d just come from.

“Captain?” Mark asked watching you walk away “we gotta fix the ship! We gotta save the colonists”

Ignoring Mark you kept walking, the faint sound of music reaching your ears the closer you got. Was that disco? Opening the door you were greeted by a figure that had its back facing you.

“You got the feeling” The figure sang as he turned around, the music coming to a stop as Wilford faced you “no! That’s bad. I know why you’re here. You’re looking for an easter egg. No! Wrong, that’s bad. Go back to the main story”

“Main story?” You asked, interrupting his tirade, “Wilford, what are you talking about?” You winced at the pain you felt shooting through your head

“Are you alright?” Wilford asked, stepping closer to you

“M-my head,” You said, holding a hand up to your forehead “I” you reached out with your other hand, grabbing his sleeve as you became dizzy

“Do you need to sit down, y/n?” Wilford asked, placing his free hand on your elbow

“No,” You said, as flashes of unclear memories came to you “I just need a minute”

“Ok,” Wilford said, waiting for you to lower your hand “now get that cute little tuchus of yours back out there” he walked with you the rest of the way to the door

You walked back to where Mark was, rubbing your temples.

“You alright, Captain?” Mark asked, eyeing you suspiciously

“Just a headache,” You said, trying to will the pain way

“Ok,” Mark said, his voice leaking with the suspicions he felt “let’s get to the warp core then”

“Right,” You said opening the door, your vision turning white

Once you were able to see again you saw that you were back on Earth, Mark was dressing in all black, and the two of you were standing in front of a helicopter and car

“Ok, this could be perfect,” Mark said motioning to each vehicle

“Wait!“ You exclaimed, extremely confused as the pain in your head increased “ah!” You grasped the sides of your skull

“Did you hit your head?” Mark asked, placing a hand on your shoulder “let me see” he felt around your head for a bump or blood, finding nothing “let’s take the car, that way I can drive and you can rest”

“No,” You said, firmly “why are we here?”

“For the box?”

“Freeze” A cop yelled as you were surrounded by the police “put your hands in the air!”

“Great” Mark grumbled as you both did as you were told

Eventually, the two of you found yourselves in a prison cell together.

“How’re we gonna get the box now?” Mark asked as you sat on the cell’s bed next to him

“I don’t know” You sighed resting your head on his shoulder

“How’s your head?” Mark asked, placing a hand on your shoulder

“Better”

“Get some rest. We’ll make a plan in the morning”

“Ok,” You said laying on the bed, Mark tucking you in under the covers

You woke up several hours later to Mark laying behind you, his arm wrapped tightly around your waist. Which you thought was weird because there was a second bunk in the room. Grabbing hold of his wrist, you tried to pry it off of you, but he was holding on tight; it was a miracle that you managed to get out of his hold without waking him. Stretching out your back you walked over to the sink in your cell and splashed some water on your face. When you saw your reflection you could tell something was off, especially once the ringing in your ears started. Leaning forward you tried to get a closer look at your almost monochromatic reflection when Mark suddenly appeared behind you.

“You feeling better?”

“Yeah,” You said, turning to face Mark

“Good! You want to start planning now?”

“Sure,” You said as you were led back to the bed

A few weeks had passed since then you and Mark wound up in prison, the two of you had managed to get on the cleaning staff, and Yancy had officially welcomed you to the prison. Today you were alone in the cell, Mark had gone off to try and work his way up to cleaning the warden's office to try and get the box.

“Hey-a there, sweet cheeks,” Yancy said from the other side of your cell bars

“Hi, Yancy,” You said, opening the cell door “come in”

“So,” Yancy said, taking a seat on the toilet as it was the only thing, besides the bed, he could sit on “how’s youse’s adjusting?”

“Fine”

“That guy youse hang around still tryna break out?” Yancy asked

“Yeah” You sighed

“I don’t get it,” Yancy said, relaxing back in his seat “why’s he want to leave this place?”

“He mostly just wants the box the warden took from us”

“Hey, why’s this mirror so dirty?”

“I don’t know ask Mark”

Yancy grabbed some toilet paper and wiped away the grime “You’d think with all the time he spends cleaning up he’d be able to keep youse cell lookin’ nice” he dropped the used paper in the toilet “now there’s a handsome boy! And there’s that handsome and/or beautiful face”

“Shut up” You chuckled, catching a glimpse of what looked like Mark dressed in a white suit standing just at the edge of the mirror

Turning around you looked out into the hall, but saw no one there. Shrugging it off you turned back to Yancy and continued the conversation you two were having, ignoring the ringing in your ears, figuring you’d just developed some minor tinnitus from all of the gunshots and explosions. Until.

“Youse hear that ringing?” Yancy asked

“Yeah,” You said as the lights began flickering “oh shit”

It didn’t take long before some of the lights flickered off completely, leaving at least half of the penitentiary in total darkness. It also seemed like the power that went to the cell’s doors went out because all of the cells opened, releasing everyone.

“Y/N,” Mark yelled almost falling as he slid to a stop in front of your cell

“Youse alright?” Yancy asked as you went over to check on your friend

“Yeah,” Mark said as the sound of the other prisoners reached your ears

“Sounds like the others ’re havin’ fun,” Yancy said going to join the rest of the family

That’s when you realized that the warden wouldn’t be in his office and you had a perfect shot at getting the box.

“Where are you going?” Mark asked, glaring into the darkness as you walked towards it

“Going to get the box,” You said not stopping

“No!” Mark exclaimed, grabbing your wrist with far more force than he needed to

“Ow!” You exclaimed trying to pry his hand off of you “you’re hurting me”

“Oh,” Mark said letting you go “I’m sorry”

“Jesus,” You said rubbing your wrist

“Let’s just go a different way though”

Grabbing hold of your hand Mark lead you away from the dark hallway and took you down a well-lit one. He was the first one into the warden's office and made sure to look around at every corner until he was positive you were alone.

“Come one”

You walked up to the desk and Mark grabbed the box, pressing the gem that was on it; everything went white again.

“I’m really glad you agreed to go on this date with me,” Mark said as he drove the two of you somewhere, the two of you were no longer dressed in prison garb but in your Sunday bests “I can’t wait to see this play with you”

“Yeah,” You said drawing out the word as you gave your surroundings a suspicious once over before letting it go “me too”

The car pulled to a stop in front of the theater and Mark was quick to get out of the car and run around to open the door for you; holding his hand out for you to take so he could help you out.

“Come on,” Mark said as you readjusted your grip on his hand so you were holding it “let’s go inside”

“Welcome to the theater!” The man who opened the theater doors for you said

“So what play do you want to see?” Mark asked motioning toward the posters

“The Dark Mark,” You said immediately being drawn to the horror poster

“A-a-are you sure” Mark stammered looking at the comedy poster “this comedy one looks really good!”

“No, I’m feeling some horror today,” You said hooking your arm in his “come one, it’ll be fun”

“Ok” Mark relented, tightening his grip on you

He took you to your seats and you lifted the armrest so you could snuggle into his side.

“Thanks for bringing me here,” You said, looking up at Mark’s face “I’m having a great time”

“Anytime,” Mark said, looking down at you with half-lidded eyes

You looked at each other, your faces slowly getting closer and closer until your lips were inches apart. Then something crashed on the stage with a loud bang. Pulling away you looked at the stage to see what had fallen but there was nothing, not even Mark when you turned back to look at him.

“Did you miss me? I missed you, very much”

On the stage stood Dark who was looking down at you with such a fondness that it made your heart flutter.

“Where’s Mark,” You asked taking a step back when Dark stepped down from the stage

“Don’t worry” Dark said, brushing a strand of hair away from your face “he won’t be bothering you anymore”

“What?” You asked taking another step away from him

“Darling?” Dark asked reaching out to caress your cheek

“Don’t touch me!” You exclaimed, slapping his hand away

Dark looked at you hurt “What has he done to you?”

“Mark hasn’t done anything to me”

“You don’t remember then,” Dark growled low in his throat, as he realized what was happening “that bastard!” He took both of your hands in his and rested his forehead against yours before speaking softly “please, please remember me, little monster”

You weren’t sure what it was but something about this moment felt right; it felt warm and inviting like this was where you belonged and no matter what happened you’d be safe.

“I” You murmured leaning into Dark

“That’s it” Dark whispered, moving his hands from yours to your upper arms, gently rubbing them “remember”

Taking a step away from you Dark gave you some space to process what was happening when he was tackled by Mark, taking the both of you out of the void. You watched as the two Marks fought unsure of what to do as you weren’t sure which one you could trust and it didn’t get any better once the gun became involved. Letting out a tiny shriek you took a step away from the gun, afraid that the force of it hitting the ground would set it off.

The sound of the gun and your screaming pulled the two Marks apart from each other, both of them looking at you to make sure you were alright before they both made a move for the gun. Since the two of them moved at the same time they crashed into each other, almost knocking the other to the ground; the Mark on the left made a right hook for the other who dodged it. Just wanting it to be over you grabbed the gun, contemplating chucking the thing as far as you could when the sharpest pain you’d ever felt struck your brain and you collapsed to the ground, grabbing the sides of your head and curling into yourself.

“Y/N!” Both Marks exclaimed looking at you

All of your memories from every game Mark had made you play suddenly flooded your mind, every death, Mark getting jealous of Illinois when he’d flirt with you, jealous of Yancy when it seemed like you two were becoming friends, he was even jealous of Wug and all he did was try and be helpful, all of your colonists dying, your crew betraying you, the zombies, watching Mark die, the party, everything. Then you saw a memory that wasn’t yours.

You were back in the manor, Damien had just tucked you into bed after you’d passed out drunk during the poker game, closing the door to your room.

“Hello, Damien,” Mark said lurking in the hall

“Mark” Damien said, “I thought you’d already gone to bed”

“No” Mark scowled

“What’s wrong?”

“What the fuck do you think you’re doing?”

“I was just helping, Y/N, to bed,” Damien said confused, motioning toward the door

“No” Mark snarled “you’re trying to steal them from me”

“What are you talking about, Mark?” Damien asked unsure of what the hell was happening

“They will be mine, Damien” Mark growled walking off to his room

Standing there Damien watched as his friend walked off and the Colonel came toward him.

“What’s wrong with Mark?” the Colonel asked peaking into your room to check in on you

“I think he’s infatuated with, Y/N”

The Colonel made a face “You might want to spend the night with them then. Who know’s what he might do, you know just as well as I what kind of a green-eyed monster he became when Celine left him”

“I know, but they’re drunk. I-I can’t risk having them thinking I took advantage of them!”

“Right” Colonel sighed, placing a hand on his friend's shoulder “then it may be best if we stick by their side until we leave”

“Agreed”

Once Damien and the Colonel were no longer near your door Mark snuck into your room, watching you for a few moments as you slept, before snipping off a lock of your hair and leaving.

That’s when you realized what you’d been feeling wasn’t real, he’d just been manipulating your memories so all you’d remember were the good times and your relationship with him to get you to succumb to some kind of Stockholm syndrome.

“Damien” You whispered shakily

“I’m here, love” Dark said coming over to your side

“No” Mark snarled, watching as you embraced Dark “no! I was so close” his voice cracked a bit “they were almost mine”

“Jesus” You murmured, looking at Mark as he glared at you before grabbing hold of Dark’s arm

“Y/N will never be yours” Dark growled, disgusted at how he’d been treating you like a puppet whose affections could so easily be controlled

“Dark,” You said softly, pulling his arm as close to you as you could “we should leave”

“Agreed” Dark said, moving his arm so that it was wrapped around your side

While you and Dark were talking to each other Mark had managed to grab hold of the gun, rotating the barrel before cocking the hammer.

“If I can’t have them,” Mark said, aiming the gun at you

Dark immediately moved you behind him so you’d be protected and Mark hesitated, not sure if a bullet would do anything against the entity. It didn’t take long for him to get over the hesitation, aiming the gun again when a shot rang out and Mark collapsed to the ground, clutching at his chest as it began bleeding as the gun fell from his grasp.

“Got him,” Wilford said standing a few feet away from them, lowering the smoking gun in his hands

“Oh thank God,” You said, letting out the breath you’d been holding, grateful that this ordeal was over

“It took you long enough,” Dark said annoyed, placing his suit jacket on your shoulders

“I had to keep up the act otherwise he’d get suspicious!” Wilford said, putting his gun away, justifying his actions towards you whenever you came across him during the games, both trying to hint at it all being a game while still playing along

You wanted to be mad at Wilford when you’d remembered that he’d shot you, but you couldn’t bring yourself to be; since it was kinda your fault too, trying to wrestle a loaded gun away from him like a dumb ass. So you gave him a kiss on the cheek as a way to thank him for helping you.

Then you turned to Dark and punched him in the arm “You trapped me in a mirror!”

“I did” Dark sighed, placing a kiss on your forehead “and I’m sorry. I thought it would keep you safe; I never could have guessed he would have done what he did”

“Is it over?” You asked, leaning into Dark’s chest

“I hope so,” Dark said, wrapping his arms tightly around you

Looking up at Dark you placed both of your hands on his cheeks, tilting his head down so that he was looking at you before bringing your lips together in a gentle kiss, that Dark was quick to deepen.

“Let’s go get some drinks,” Wilford said draping an arm around Dark’s shoulder “my treat”

“Yeah” You agreed, just wanting to forget what had happened in the last few hours “that sounds great”

“Alright” Dark relented, just happy that he’d be able to spend time with you again

“I think I’m going to visit Yancy,” You said thinking back to every person you’d met during Mark’s games “he was so nice to me every time I was in there and I feel bad just leaving him”

“Of course, darling” Dark said, pulling all of you into a dark void

“You think he’ll remember me?” You said when you found yourselves in the Ego’s manor

“I’m positive”

“I can’t imagine anyone forgetting you!” Wilford said

Dig my grave

A little bit of fluff with my boy-druig. perusal male reader.

Shadows hide secrets especially when it comes to questioning one's sexuality "I'm so stupid" you lean your head on a nearby wall. A hotel corridor in England "I need to stop, I like girls and he isn't a girl". For the past decades, you've been twisting and turning with your label as a man and what a man should be.

Druig your friend and fellow Eternal "He doesn't...I'm so dumb" the entire hotel had been rented to hold an intense party. So many people attended and one of those people was Druig and now here you are scolding yourself in an empty corridor. The party couldn't be any louder as it is "Maybe I can sneak out" you personally invited him but the moment you saw Druig you dashed.

With a smack to the face, you took a deep breath and flash off to find the closet exit. "C'mon where are you?" you panicked when you didn't find a nearby exit "Looking for me" a shiver met your body. His voice makes it even worse "Hey Druig...I thought you didn't like these kinds of things" Druig shrugs "You invited me so I had to come".

You watch him lean up against the wall "I just thought you were being nice when you said you'll show". Druig seemed offended "You think so poorly of me" you wanted to say more but a mortal friend interrupted. "Looks whose here, Becky. This is your second chance mate now go" you were shoved into the girl's direction.

Druig felt like a fool for believing you weren't straight "Hey...what's up Becky?" she smiles. "Oh hey Y/N' I thought I saw you" you hum but all you wanted was to leave but that plan blew up in your face "Yeah". "Wanna dance," she asks while twirling showing off her dress "I can't dance" she just rolls her eyes. "And, ain't like your performing for anyone now C'mon" is it better than mentally dying in the company of Druig?...yeah it is.

You were right you can't dance "I feel a little awkward," you say over the music "No, need to feel misplaced C'mon just get into it". You felt like an idiot even though everyone in the ballroom was nowhere near watching you. Flashing lights, a disco ball spinning along with the DJ everything didn't feel that great. "I really like you Y/N". "Huh.." Becky just looks up at you "You don't have to say anything right now. I can wait yeah" with a nod you look around to see Druig on his own.

"I'm sorry if you excuse me I just..." you depart from Becky who celebrates at the fact she confessed, "Hey Druig". The other male looks at you "How are you enjoying the party?" he shrugs "Could've been better" you frown a little "What, do you mean?". Druig just stares at you "It's a bit loud in here, isn't it. C'mon follow me".

You walk alongside Druig "Why did you invite me?" you fall silent "I wanted an excuse to leave but I guess that isn't gonna work". Druig chuckles "We can still ditch" there it is his mischief grin "What...that'd rude" the other male sighs. "Goodie goodie" honestly you hate and love that stupid nickname "Shut up...fine let's bounce only if you wear your helmet this time".

You don't know why you agreed but you kinda felt happy that you did "Milkshakes are better" you declared. "Whatever you say...but chocolate milk" Druig chiefs kiss at the end "Whatever" both of you sat outside on a curb outside a Milkshake cafe.

"So Becky how long have you known her?" you cringe a little "For a few months" he hums whilst slurping his chocolate milk. You groan along with a little kick "I don't know if I like her or...do you feel as if you should like this one person but in the end you...yeah" wow not confusing at all. Druig doesn't say anything "I question why I'm like this and I don't want to believe I'm 'unnatural'...you know?" you furrow and unfurrow "Druig please say something".

Druig doesn't say anything "Okay I know it sounds weird but...you know me and I know you" Druig finally meets your gaze. "No, it's not weird and it's natural to feel this way" you make a weird face "Are you sure?" he nods. "I think I'm bisexual and...No I know I'm bisexual" Druig watches you fiddle with your fingers "And right now I'm in the midst of a...gay? no bisexual panic".

Druig reaches over and places a hand on your knee "I know a thing or two about figuring out sexuality" you frown in confusion. "What?...what about Makkari?" he chuckles "We both know who I truly desire" once again confusion washes over you. "Who?" Druig has to admit you've your blonde moments and sometimes it's cute to watch you fade out.

"You!" your face shows nothing but shock and relief "I...What?" he grins and without a second thought he leans in. "It has always been you" soft, gentle, and afraid that he might cause you to run for the hills but no you moved forward.

"You are my desire"

everything happens for a reason part 11 - zuko x fem!reader

Memories, where'd you go?

part 10 | masterlist | part 12

a/n: alternative name for this fic: y/n gets a crush on every pretty girl she meets. yue, katara, and now suki. she can't help it (and she questions why they're all connected to sokka in some way lmaoo)

anyways, this is kind of filler but it establishes some more with relationships and finallyyy gets us into ba sing se at the end. i know it's a lil annoying because there's a lot of episode-to-text writing, but i promise it'll get more freeform as it goes on

also i know that i just posted something yesterday but i have literally zero patience. like i cant hold chapters i have to post them as soon as i write them loll

wc: 5.3k

warning(s): some feels over zuko as per usual, but overall a pretty tame chapter

chapter title comes from memories by panic! at the disco!

Zuko could barely sleep anymore.

He didn’t know when his life became so complicated, but he wasn’t a fan of it.

Back when it was just him, his crew, and the open sea — it was simple. He had a job, a straightforward mission. Find the Avatar, capture him, return home to the Fire Nation and regain his honor.

Now, the waters were more muddied than ever. Now on the run from the Fire Nation just like the boy he was chasing, all he really felt nowadays was anger.

Angry at the world for setting him on this path, angry at the Avatar for refusing to see what was necessary, his sister and her friends for turning against him, angry at the waterbender for making things so damn hard.

He didn’t want to hurt her. A part of him wished that she had never come back into his life, if it meant he wouldn’t have to constantly be fighting against her. He hated himself for the thought, but maybe it would have been easier for her to remain a memory of a lover than his active enemy.

Late at night, when he was reaching fruitlessly for sleep that would never come, he saw her face. The carefree energy from their childhood morphed into the shock and disappointment from both the North and their fight with Azula, and…

It made him wonder what in Agni had happened to them.

He—

He didn’t know. The way he felt about her, it was different than anything he had experienced before. Zuko didn’t know what it was, but he understood that it was special. And now… it felt like he had just thrown it all away.

Zuko couldn’t stop thinking about what had happened with her in that town — what he had done to her.

He had burned her to try and get to the Avatar, and he hadn’t even allowed a glance back at the damage he had done. He had heard her cry out in pain, pain he had caused, and he didn’t even look back.

What had happened to them? What had happened to him?

He kept telling himself that the mission was the only thing that mattered. And it was, wasn’t it? Capture the Avatar, regain his honor, get his old life back and finally be enough for his father. He didn’t have time for friends, or for these feelings he had, or— or for anything but capturing the Avatar. Because the Avatar was the key to everything, to his honor, and that was all that mattered.

But now…

Now, he didn’t know what he was supposed to do. He didn’t know what was right, or what was wrong, or what path was the one he had to take.

Zuko just wished things could be like they used to be.

~~~~~~~~~~

She didn’t really know when everything had become a mess again.

It all started out fine, like it usually did. Toph had become fully integrated into the group, any past squabbles put to rest in the name of a stronger friendship emerging between all five of them. Katara continued to work on Aang’s waterbending (oftentimes Y/N joining them in their sessions) while Toph slowly but steadily beat earthbending into him — literally.

They had all been working hard for so long that, by decree of Aang, it was ‘vacation time’. They would all get to pick out places they wanted to spend as a break, and after it was over they would get back to work.

Aang had chosen some sort of field with musical groundhogs, and Y/N had opted to revisit an Earth Kingdom village that she had passed through on her journey to the North. Sokka had complained the whole time about how they were ‘wasting valuable planning time’, but had finally conceded after the promise of ‘all the planning his heart could desire’ from Katara after their mini-vacations were over.

Y/N was actually feeling somewhat relaxed for once, but she had forgotten the golden rule — never let your guard down. Everytime she let her guard down, something bad happened without fail. So it shouldn’t have been any surprise with what happened in the desert.

Because after one trip to the Misty Palms Oasis and a journey into the desert with a professor to a long lost library, Appa had been taken by desert raiders.

It was… less than favourable. During their escape from the library, Professor Zei had insisted on staying behind, and now the five of them were stuck in the middle of the desert with no way out and zero guidance. Add some brewing tensions between Aang and Toph because of her being there when Appa was taken, and they had a recipe for a huge disaster.

And a disaster they had. Multiple disasters, actually.

There was only so much she and Katara could do to hold the group together, but by some miracle, they made it out of the desert with only one Avatar State mishap.

(And an incident with cactus juice, but… she didn’t really want to talk about that.)

....at least they had the information about the Eclipse. That was about the only thing keeping her together at the moment.

They had to get the information to the Earth King so they could formulate an attack with his warriors, but without Appa, they had to resort to more traditional methods of travel. Add in one passport problem, and that was how Y/N found herself braving the Serpent’s Pass alongside a refugee family with a baby on the way.

It was… intimidating, to say the least. Despite being surrounded by her element, Y/N didn’t feel any safer from the challenge that faced them. She took a deep breath, trying to tamp down on her fear the way her mother had taught her, as she followed the group, but her thoughts were soon interrupted.

“Hey.” She turned to see who the voice belonged to and was greeted by the girl that had teased Sokka early — Suki, if she remembered correctly. “I haven’t seen you around; are you with the Avatar or that family?”

“I’m with Aang,” Y/N explained. “I’m from the North, and they offered me a spot with them after they helped us defend our tribe against the Fire Nation. I’ve been with them ever since.” Suki nodded as they settled into a comfortable stride.

“That’s cool. Are you a waterbender?”

She gestured to her waterskin and smiled. “Yeah. I’ve been training with Aang and Katara ever since I left.” Y/N then turned her gaze back to Suki, raising an inquisitive brow. “Your makeup — what’s it for? I heard you talking about the Kyoshi Warriors back there; is that some kind of thing with Avatar Kyoshi?”

Suki grinned, her every expression heightened by the sharp reds and blacks above her eyes. “We’re a group of all-female warriors that use the teachings of Avatar Kyoshi and her partner Rangi to defend our home and the place she founded, Kyoshi Island. I’m the leader of our village section.”

“Wow,” she murmured, her eyes falling to the ground for a moment before finding their way back up to the warrior. “That’s really cool. You’re really cool.”

She laughed and shrugged. “Thanks. I’ve been training as a warrior for almost my whole life, so it just comes naturally. I like being able to protect people, and there’s no better way to pay back my home for all it’s done for me like protecting the whole village.”

“Wow,” she repeated with a small laugh of her own. “That’s really brave. I gotta say, I’m kinda jealous — I would love to see what would happen if Master Pakku met you all. Katara literally had to beat the sexism out of him in order to train to be a master.”

Suki chuckled. “Sounds like what I had to do with Sokka. Guess it’s a thing with Water Tribe guys, huh?”

At the mention of Sokka, she internally laughed. There had to be some kind of connection between the two of them, the way their interests kept aligning. “Sokka… he’s had it hard. I can’t blame him that much for any kind of attitude he had before he met you. Pakku, on the other hand? He had to have had something better to do than fight teenage girls.”

“You would think so, right?” Suki agreed. “And Sokka… I know. He’s got a heart of gold underneath all that, he just needed a little push to get it out.” As Y/N glanced over at the girl, noticing a slight pink tint under the white makeup, she gasped.

“La’s fins, are you two a thing?” she exclaimed with a grin.

Suki flushed even harder as she suddenly became very interested in the ocean around her, but she couldn’t help the smile on her lips. “No! I mean— yes— but… but—” she stopped to gather her thoughts before making eye contact again with a sheepish smile. “We’re not… really a thing, but… I do like him a lot. I didn’t really think I was going to see him again after they left the island, so this is really nice.”

“Then what are you waiting for?” Y/N asked. “I can already tell that he cares about you — have you seen how careful he’s being with you?”

“Well—” Whatever kind of excuse Suki would’ve made up was interrupted by a rock falling out just under Than, one of the refugees they were with, saved in the nick of time with Toph’s earthbending.

“I’m okay!” he reassured, but no sooner had the words left his mouth before the Fire Nation ship in the distance started firing.

“They’ve spotted us!” Sokka yelled. “Let’s go, let’s go!”

Aang flicked his glider open and deflected the blast, and Katara grabbed Y/N’s hand as they all began to run. Another blast rocked the mountain, causing several boulders to fall just above Suki. Y/N didn’t even have time to shout out a warning before Sokka tackled her out of the way, but it was ultimately more of Toph’s quick earthbending that saved him.

“Suki, are you okay?” Sokka brushed dust and pebbles off of her uniform as he examined her, and once he was satisfied he grabbed her hand and helped her up. “You have to be more careful! Come on!”

As the two of them caught up to Y/N and Katara, she gave Suki a knowing look. The warrior only blushed once again and glanced away.

After hours of navigating the pass, they were only about halfway through. Sokka made the executive decision to set up camp for the night to give everyone time to rest, and then they would get up at the crack of dawn to finish their trip. It only took a few minutes for Y/N to get a fire going, and soon everyone had settled in with their sleeping bags. Sokka got up from his spot as Suki wandered closer to the edge, and Katara nudged Y/N with her shoulder.

“Hey. How are your hands doing?”

“They’re fine,” she answered with a small smile, flipping her hands over as proof. Where there were once red burn scars on her palms only tiny white marks remained — one benefit to healing via waterbending was that most injuries were able to fade away completely after enough sessions. Her burns weren’t very serious and she was able to heal them almost immediately, so both her and Katara were sure that the marks would be completely gone soon.

The mental scars wouldn’t fade as easily.

“That’s good. And you’re taking care of them, right? Like, you’re not beating up people while we’re not looking?”

Y/N grinned. “No. I think I’ll leave that to Toph.”

Katara chuckled and nodded, turning her hands over in a final examination before nodding. “Good,” she repeated. The silence between them, although comfortable, stretched out for a little too long before she spoke again, this time much quieter. “He did this to you.”

“Katara…”

“I know,” she said. “I know you probably don’t want to hear this from me, or really at all, but… I’m worried about you. Zuko isn’t good for you. Every time we’ve run into him, he’s hurt you. And you deserve so much more than that.”

“You don’t understand,” she countered. “You don’t know Zuko like I do. You weren’t there when I was. I know you think I’m insane for still believing in him, but I— I can’t let go of him, Katara. I know the Zuko I love is still in there somewhere, and I have to try and find it. For me and for him.”

Katara’s eyes were full of nothing but sympathy as she sighed — it was obvious she didn’t believe her words, but in true fashion she was still trying her best to be supportive.

“Okay. I don’t understand it, but… I don’t think I can change your mind.” Y/N chuckled sadly and nodded, Katara’s piercing gaze meeting her own once more. “It’s just… Why are you playing with fire when you know you’re going to get burned?”

And for once, Y/N didn’t have an answer for her friend.

~~~~~~~~~

The night went by quickly, which Y/N was thankful for. It meant that the nightmares didn’t last as long.

After a quick headcount to make sure no one had fallen off the pass overnight and an even quicker gathering of their things, they set off to finish their journey.

It went just as well as she had expected — a giant serpent, the namesake of the pass, had attacked them while crossing through an underwater section. Thankfully, she was able to aid Katara and Aang in defeating it with waterbending with no casualties

But in the wake of one disaster there was always another, and before Y/N knew it a baby had been born. She was mostly there for moral support — Katara had it all handled, and Y/N didn’t expect anything less.

But finally, they had made it across the pass, and they were so close to Ba Sing Se that she could almost smell the city air. Sadly, though, that meant it was time for them to part ways — Aang to find Appa, and Suki back to her warriors. After some sad but hopeful goodbyes with Aang, it was time to bid farewell to Suki.

“Are you sure you can’t travel a little longer with us?” Y/N questioned, apparently not above pleading to try and get the girl to stay. “You’re— you’re amazing, and we’d really love to have you with us.”

“I can’t even imagine what travelling with the Avatar would be like,” she smiled, causing Y/N to get her hopes up for just a moment before they fell back down. “But I can’t stay. I have to get back to the Kyoshi Warriors.”

Y/N sighed, her gaze falling slightly downcast. “I get that. I just really wish you could stay. Or that I could meet your warriors. You seriously don’t know how cool you are, Suki.”

“Well, if you’re ever in town on Kyoshi Island, find us. I’m sure we’ll be able to work something out and do you one better than just meeting them all,” she said with a grin. “I think it’d be pretty cool to have the first waterbending Kyoshi Warrior.”

Y/N was unable to prevent the heat rushing to her cheeks as she smiled shyly, once again averting eye contact. “That would be amazing. I’ll have to find my way back there after the war.”

Suki bumped shoulders with her, causing a startled laugh to spill from her lips. “We’d love to have you.”

“Wait, why does it sound like you’re saying goodbye to her?” Sokka questioned as he walked up to the two of them. Y/N winked at Suki and gestured at him with her head, walking off before Suki could protest to find Katara.

The conversation the two girls were sharing was an extremely thinly veiled excuse to eavesdrop on the lovebirds, and when they kissed Y/N actually had to hold back a scream.

Sokka deserved this. She knew how much he beat himself up over every little thing that went wrong, and it was about time he got to relax even for a moment. She only hoped that Suki would be in their corner of the world sooner rather than later.

What could she say? She was already fantasizing about life as a Kyoshi Warrior.

~~~~~~~~~

Although they had parted ways, they soon found themselves reunited with Aang to stop yet another Fire Nation threat.

“For the love of Kuruk,” Y/N murmured as she stared into the distance, her eyes wide at the sight of a large mechanical drill. “That was Ty Lee who just took down all those soldiers. And if she’s here, Mai and Azula are with her too. Guys, It’s one thing to stop this drill, it’s another thing to take those three down with it.”

“The question is, how do we do it?” Aang questioned.

“Why can nothing ever be easy?” Sokka lamented. His gaze remained trained on the drill for a moment before he realized theirs were on him. “Why are you all looking at me?”

“You’re the idea guy,” Aang said.

“Wait, so I’m the only one who can ever come up with a plan?” he protested. “That’s a lot of pressure!”

“And also the complaining guy,” Katara muttered, drawing a chuckle out from Y/N.

“Now that part I don’t mind,” Sokka admitted.

“Well, Sokka— you were a huge help in the North, and you figured out a way to defeat the Fire Nation during that eclipse at the library! Plus, there’s all that stuff that Katara told me you did before I joined.” She patted him on the back. “If anyone can figure out how to take that thing down, it’s you.”

He shrugged nonchalantly, his ego only slightly bolstered. “...okay. I think I can do it.”

“That’s the spirit!” she said with a smile.

Unfortunately, that smile faded as a young guard came running up to the wall. “Excuse me, Avatar and friends — I’ve heard that you’ve dealt with that… that pink girl down there before.” They nodded and he continued. “It would do us a great deal of help if you could come down and look at our injured soldiers, then.”

Y/N and Katara nodded in unison and started to follow the guard, the remaining three trailing after them. They ended up inside the wall, in what looked like an infirmary of sorts with all the cots and soldiers lying around, and the two waterbenders exchanged looks.

“You know what to do?” Katara asked.

Y/N hummed in acknowledgment, and they both knelt down next to separate cots. “This definitely looks like Ty Lee’s work,” she murmured as she bent water up from the pot and molded it over the man’s arm.

“What’s wrong with him?” the general questioned. “He doesn’t look injured.”

“His chi is blocked,” Katara explained. “Who did this to you?”

“Two girls ambushed us,” the soldier said, moving his arm as he regained feeling. “One of them hit me with a bunch of quick jabs and suddenly I couldn't earthbend anymore and I could barely move. Then she cartwheeled away.”

Katara sighed as she bent the water back into the pot. “You were right, Y/N. That was Ty Lee — she doesn’t look dangerous, but she knows the human body and its weak point. It’s like she takes you down from the inside.”

As if struck by lightning, Sokka lit up. “Oh, oh, oh! What you just said — that’s how we’re going to take down the drill; the same way Ty Lee took down all those earthbenders!”

“By hitting its pressure points!” Toph exclaimed with a grin.

The breakthrough brought a steely determination to Aang’s features as he looked out into the distance. “We’ll take it down from the inside.”

~~~~~~~~~

Like everything they did, it seemed so simple on paper. But now that she was actually inside the drill, it felt a lot more nerve wracking. Toph opted to stay outside where she could see and try to slow down the drill with the earth at her disposal, which left the four of them to somehow take it down from the inside.

Sokka led them through a hallway with a myriad of valves and pipes as he thought out loud. “I need a plan of this machine — some schematics that show what the inside looks like. Then we can find its weak points.”

“Where are we gonna get something like that?” Aang asked.

Sokka thought for a moment before he took his machete out and hacked a valve off a pipe. Y/N instinctively took a step back and shielded her face from the hot steam. “What are you doing?” she cried. “Someone’s gonna hear us!”

“That’s the point!” he exclaimed. “A machine this big needs engineers to run it, and when something breaks—”

“Someone will come down to fix it!” Katara finished with a smile at Aang, a sentiment the boy returned happily.

It was surprisingly easy to take down the engineer once he arrived — with a little bit of frozen mist on Katara’s end, they had the plans they needed. Sokka’s expertise combined with the blueprints got them to the beginning of the outer shell.

“Wow,” Sokka muttered. “It looks a lot thicker than it does in the plans. We’re gonna have to work pretty hard to cut through that.”

Katara crossed her arms. “What’s this ‘we’ stuff? The three of us are gonna have to do all the work.”

“Look, I’m the plan guy!” Sokka explained with a gesture to himself. “You three are the ‘cut up stuff with waterbending’ guys. Together, we’re Team Avatar!”

Katara and Aang looked wholly unamused while Y/N chuckled. “Team Avatar. I like it.”

“Thank you,” he smiled. “At least someone appreciates my genius.”

“Tui’s gills, why do you have to keep boosting his ego?” Katara complained. “Let’s just get this done before it gets worse.”

The three of them got in position — Katara and Aang on opposite sides so they could pass the stream of water between them, and Y/N making the point of the triangle to work on the other side on her own. They were hoping it would be more efficient being able to cut through both sides at the same time, but it was proving to be much more difficult than they had imagined — halfway through the three of them were already exhausted.

By some feat of strength they were able to completely cut through the brace, but their hard work didn’t pay off in quite the way they had imagined — when the beam only shifted a few inches she groaned.

“Oh, you have got to be kidding me,” she breathed as she wiped sweat off of her forehead.

“At this rate,” Katara paused to inhale deeply, “we won’t do enough damage before the drill reaches the wall.”

“I don’t know how many more of those I have in me,” Aang said sadly.

A large creak suddenly rang throughout the large chamber, and they all looked up for the source.

“Did you hear that?” Sokka asked, already backing up to make an exit. “We took it down! We gotta get out of here, fast!”

Just as they reached the door on the other side, a crackle followed by the sound of a man’s voice dashed their hopes. “Congratulations, crew. The drill has made contact with the wall of Ba Sing Se. Start the countdown to victory!”

A collective silence hung in the air between them, the threat now even more imminent as their situation sunk in. Mai and Ty Lee had proven effective in taking down any Earth Kingdom threat posed at them, and despite Toph’s skill they knew she couldn’t take down something like this on their own.

They either had to figure out a way to destroy this drill, or the Fire Nation was going to make it into the city.

Sokka ran back over to the brace and pushed against it, putting all his strength into the feat but to no avail. “Come…. on! Move!”

Katara started pacing around in a small circle, crossing her arms again as she tried to think of something. “This is bad. This is really bad.”

“Sokka, that’s not going to work!” Y/N didn’t mean to snap, but the grinding of metal on metal combined with her nervousness got to her. She sighed and ran her hand over her face. “I— I’m sorry. But it’s still not going to work.”

He groaned as he leaned against the brace. “We’re putting everything we have into busting these things, but it’s taking too long!”

Suddenly, Aang jumped up from the ground with stars in his eyes. “Maybe we don’t need to cut all the way through! Toph — she’s been teaching me that you shouldn’t put a hundred percent of your energy in any one strike. Sokka, get in a fighting stance.”

Sokka complied and as Aang talked through his points, he demonstrated it on Sokka. “You've got to be quick and accurate. Hit a series of points and break your opponent's stance. And when he's reeling back, you deliver the final blow. His own weight becomes his downfall, literally.”

As Sokka fell over from the attack, Katara lit up. “So we just need to weaken the braces instead of cutting all the way through—”

“—then I can go to the top of this thing and deliver the final blow!” Aang finished.

Y/N helped Sokka up from the ground, his spirits not dampened at all. “Then boom! This whole thing goes down!”

“Then what are we waiting for?” Y/N asked, flexing her fingers to refresh them for all the bending she was going to have to do. “Aang, Katara and I can handle the braces. Focus on getting up to the top before anyone sees you.”

He nodded and they all met each other with determined eyes. “Everyone inside that wall, the whole world — they’re all counting on us.”

“Here, take this. You need this more than I do. ” Katara took her waterskin off and handed it to Aang. “Good luck. And be careful.”

Y/N noticed a slight blush on her cheeks and she had to hold back her smile. That was definitely something she was going to tease her friend about later — when they weren’t trying to stop the Fire Nation from breaking into Ba Sing Se.

“I will,” he assured. Aang slung the strap of the waterskin around his shoulder and took off, and Y/N and Katara got to work breaking through the rest of the braces.

With the knowledge that they only had to cut through half of each column and the revitalization that came from having a plan, their work went by much quicker. Just when they finished the final brace, it all went wrong.

“Good work, Team Avatar!” Sokka cheered. “Now we— Y/N, duck!”

She didn’t question Sokka as she immediately dropped to the ground, something she was immensely thankful for as a blast of blue fire seared past her. Her eyes snapped up to the source of the attack and narrowed in recognition.

“Of course they’re here,” she growled as she pulled herself back up. “We gotta go, now!”

Katara and Sokka nodded and they all started running. Bringing up the rear, Y/N was able to hear Azula’s words right before they split off into an intersection:

“Follow them! I’m going to find the Avatar.”

Sure enough, when she allowed a glance back, Mai and Ty Lee were closing in on them. She flicked open the cap of her waterskin and bent some out, managing to freeze it at just the right moment to block the incoming daggers from Mai. Still running, she melted it quickly and let it fall to the ground before freezing it again, creating some ice on the ground that would hopefully give them a few more seconds of leeway.

“That should give us some time!” she yelled as they turned a corner, finally turning her attention back to the path in front of them. “Any idea how we’re gonna get out of this thing?”

“Maybe!” Sokka yelled back, slowing to a stop as they came to a dead end, a large hatch the only thing at their disposal. He started tugging on the wheel in an attempt to open it, and when Y/N joined in they were able to wrench it open.

“Slurry pipeline?” Katara frowned as she read the sign on the wall and looked at Sokka. “What does that mean?”

“It’s rock and water mixed together,” he explained as they looked into the rushing liquid underneath the hatch. “It means it’s our way out!”

Katara nodded and climbed in, Sokka following close after. The sound of metal footsteps got closer and closer, and Y/N ducked inside just as Mai’s knives clanked against the hatch. Never before had she been so happy to be floating in a stream of slurry.

The rest of their mission went by surprisingly easy — at least, on their end. All it took was some waterbending — earthbending, when Toph joined them — and encouragement from Sokka (though unappreciated by Katara). Whatever magic Aang was working at the top of the drill had done its job, because soon enough the drill had collapsed in on itself.

And now, they had reunited on the top of the wall overlooking the sunset. After the chaos that had been their day, it was nice to just relax for even a moment. And there was no better way to do so than with her friends.

“I just want to say, good effort out there, Team Avatar!” Sokka exclaimed as he threw an arm around Y/N’s shoulder.

“Enough with the ‘Team Avatar’ stuff,” Katara said dryly. “No matter how many times you say it, it’s not going to catch on.”

“I like it, Sokka,” Y/N smiled. “I’ve liked it this whole time.”

“You always appreciate my genius, Y/N,” he mused. “That’s why I appreciate you.” She laughed and leaned her head against his shoulder as he continued to list off names.

“How about… the Boomeraang squad! Eh? See, it’s good because it’s boomerang, and it has Aang in it—”

“Yeah Sokka,” Toph interrupted. “We got it.”

Aang grinned and scratched his head. “I kinda like that one.”

“The Aang Gang. Ooh, the Fearsome Fivesome!”

“You’re crazy,” Toph muttered as she walked away.

“Wait, Sokka—” Y/N pulled away from him and held up her pointer finger. “Aang Gang — what if we combine it, so it’s just the Gaang? But still with Aang’s name?”

And at that moment, Sokka looked more proud than ever. “Oh, you— you are a genius.”

“Oh, spirits,” Katara groaned. “Why do you insist on encouraging him?”

“You’re just jealous of our name-making abilities,” Sokka said haughtily.

She rolled her eyes but couldn’t stop herself from laughing. “You two are completely ridiculous, you know that? Let’s just get into the city before the trains stop running.”

Y/N and Sokka winked at each other as they all started walking, unable to keep the smile off of her face. She always thought it was amazing — they went through insane things every day, but at the end of it all she was always able to smile because of them. And as her gaze drifted towards the city in the distance, she hoped it would hold true.

She had no idea what Ba Sing Se had in store for her.

shit is gonna happen next chapter so i hope you all are READY bc im not

The thing about Zeppelin is:

I'm reading histories of disco at the moment, which discuss rock radio stations in the 1970s. These stations constructed the canon of what is now known as "classic rock", i.e. rock that has been inducted into a canon of The Classics by these specific radio DJs and other establishment bodies.

(you may be wondering, how many of those artists were black? One radio station discussed would only admit a single artist - Jimi Hendrix. Classic Rock remains a male-dominated and white sort of affair because it was deliberately constructed as one.)

So I guess if you wanted to label Zeppelin you'd say, it's classic rock. And they're kinda the template for classic rock: it looks, sounds, feels a bit like that. But they weren't making classic rock at the time, because that didn't exist. They were making blues on their early albums, covering blues standards with their own twist; and they understood themselves as making prog rock the rest of the time. It's only after-the-fact (and in part, based on them), that the concept of Classic Rock sort of solidified. Some prog rock is classic rock, but most is not - its prog, a category that exists alongside/in tension with classic rock. Comfortably Numb has that guitar solo: is classic rock. Squonk is heavier: is classic rock. Fountain of Salmacis is fey and unusual, and is NOT classic rock.

I suspect - and this is awkward, but *shrug* - I suspect some of the reluctance to file LZ into prog is because they are a very, very good band. It seems redundant to say that. But it'd totally bum out debates like "who was the greatest vocalist/lead guitarist/drummer in prog?". Some bands can be a lot of things and some bands are specialists. Because of the way we understand the landscape of music, the way we divide it up (and because we've divided it up in order to understand LZ first and other things in comparison to/in tension with it) - it seems natural to put it in a different location to bands who can definitely only be prog (within our current mappings).

We could understand the landscape differently, which would reveal new ways of seeing.

[I did disagree with my husband very strongly about LZ-is-prog and he won me over comprehensively (that fucking synth intro in Carouselambra. lol.) but I think about it a lot now, because of that process of defining useful categories. What I'm looking for when I seek out prog sounds a lot like Battle of Evermore, and the acoustic portions of Stairway to Heaven; which I mentally group with Pink Floyd's Julia Dream, or the green twinkling of Cinema Show or Dancing with a Moonlit Knight or Stagnation. That defines what's important about the genre to me, & arguably that isn't prog (but it isn't acid folk because I've listened to a lot of that). There's not a name for what I like, I suppose. I could never get into Yes, but my trajectory from being very into Genesis was being very into bits of Zeppelin, bits of early Pink Floyd, bits of Camel, bits of Pentangle - but never the whole, and those bits which sit naturally together sit more loudly to me than the bits that are separate. I like pastoral imagery, flutes or mellotrons pretending to be flutes, arpeggio acoustic guitar]

ship: prinxiety, background intrulogical

genre: fluff

warnings: swearing, like one sexual innuendo, very breif mention of murder (as a joke, this is fluff after all)

summary: Radio AU where Virgil runs the 11-1 am radio on his college and every night someone calls to complain about his music selections and request disney, and Virgil never plays disney.

Virgil sat in his swivel chair and put on the headphones “sup bitches I’m back and this time with like three monsters because finals are a bitch and sleep can suck my dick. The first song of the night is Lotta True Crime by Peneople Scott. Why? Because I say it is that’s why.” Virgil put the song on and worked on his final project as the songs played.

The phone rang and Virgil groaned and checked the number. This dick again. He picked up and put it on air since people seemed to love listening to him and disney guy argue.

“listen asshole if you want to listen to Disney so fucking badly then apply for a spot and stop calling me.”

there’s a laugh “how about you just play some disney then? if you do I’ll stop calling. Because your music taste sucks.”

Virgil rolls his eyes “bitch apply for an opening and have a disney hour. And let me listen to my music, because not everyone loves fucking disney.”

“Well many people do so why not play one song.”

Virgil snorts “first no, and second if I had to I’d make everyone regret it and play let it go.”

“Let it go is great!”

“bye bye Princey, stop calling”

Virgil hung up “and since Princey called you know what we’re playing? MCR because I know he hates it. So this one’s for you princey, up next after this ad because this place needs money. By the way if you’re not a broke bitch donate because this job is like kinda decent and I like making you all listen to the music I like. Blood by MCR is up next” Virgil played the ad and leaned back in his chair.

“Why do you take his calls if you know he’ll just be annoying?” Janus asks in class.

Virgil shrugs “since it started I get more listeners which is good for the station.”

“I think it’s funny, cause you two have cute pet names for each other, princey and emo nightmare” Remus says.

Virgil elbows him “they’re not pet names.”

“they are,” Janus says, moving so Virgil couldn’t elbow him.

Roman waits to dial the number, he had to admit he sort of enjoyed his and emo nightmare’s conversations, who refused to reveal his name or grade.

At first they’d been annoying and he’d genuinely complained about all the emo music and asking to play disney but it’d soon become a nightly ritual, that had very quickly ruined Roman’s sleep schedule.

He dialed the number “seriously, why all the emo music, emo nightmare?”

“you just answered your own question princey, why the obsession with disney songs princey? See? Sounds fucking stupid.”

Roman sighs dramatically “you wound me emo nightmare. But seriously what’ll it take to get you to play ONE disney song?”

“a hundred grand, that’s how much the station needs to keep running, do that and I’ll play ONE disney song.”

“four.”

“Three songs and a hundred and fifty grand, fifty grand per song. final offer. and I get to pick the songs.’

Roman nods “deal,”

“oh and, you have until the end of finals to get the money donated, and I’ll make the gofundme, not you.”

That’s like a month and a half away Roman thinks I’ll have enough time. “sure thing emo nightmare.”

Roman’s emo hung up. He smiles like an idiot.

“Why not ask him out? it’s clear you’re fond of him” Roman’s roommate Logan says from his side of the room.

“ask out a guy I don’t even know the name of? yeah sure” Roman snorts.

“what? Scared you’ll be rejected? I cannot believe I’m saying this, but Roman I am getting more dick then you have been ever since you started talking to your radio boy.” Logan says in an even tone.

Roman pretends to gag “you don’t need to tell me how much you and my brother have done it Logan, you two being together is enough for me to want to bleach my eyes.”

“you’re no better whenever you’re going out with someone, or even hooked up with a slightly above average guy.”

Remus barged in “Loooo I need help studying.”

Roman stood up “that’s my queue to leave.”

Remus watches Roman go “so what where you two talking about?”

“oh you know, he’s still calling the campus radio station to ask for disney songs” Logan says.

“Wait, Roman is Princey?” Remus asks, he starts laughing

“Yes? You didn’t know?”

Remus cackles “no! oh this is great! My best friend Virgil does the 11 to 1 radio, he’s Emo Nightmare and Roman is his Princey”

“We could set them up, Roam is so lovesick, I swear he’s head over heels for him and he hasn’t even met Virgil” Logan says.

Remus gasps “this is why I love you! Of course we’re going to set them up.”

Logan and Remus came up with a plan, they’d invite Roman and Virgil to a study session and then never showed up, leaving Virgil and Roman to wait.

Virgil puts on his headphones and starts loudly playing panic at the disco and reading over his shitty notes.

Someone taps him on the shoulder “hey can you turn the emo shit down, I’m trying to study and it’s really loud.”

Virgil turns it down a bit “that good?”

he nods “yeah, where you also ghosted for a study session?”

“Yeah I was, my best friend and his nerdy boyfriend where supposed to help me study, they probably forgot all about me.” Virgil says.

“Logan And Remus? Remus is my brother and Logan’s my roommate” Roman says.

“Yeah, well since we’re both here we could study together if you want” please say no please say no.

“Sounds good!” Roman says.

Fuck.

Virgil and Roman studied for awhile and Virgil very slowly started warming up to Roman. “ah shit I have to go, see you round I guess” Virgil says packing up his stuff, he wanted to have some alone time before his shift.

“ok Bye Virgil,” Roman says packing up, he had to go do his own thing, which would probably end up becoming a quick nap before his emo nightmare started his turn being the radio host.

Virgil sat in the chair “what up bitches, so far the goal has 10k, so no disney tonight, or ever because this is on a time crunch and 150k is a fuck ton of money for broke college students. And now onto Fuck you by Lily Allen. Why? Because she’s underrated and because I said so.” Virgil played the song.

Virgil got the call around 12:30 “you’re calling later then usual princey, and no, no disney tonight.”

“Oh I was just about to ask. And also I was asking how to find the gofundme.”

“It’s on the UCLA radio website, can’t miss it. Now let me do my fucking job” Virgil hung up and played MCR as was tradition.

What he didn’t know was Roman recorded the phone call and posted it everywhere he could anonymously and waited.

Virgil checked the go fund me in the morning “it has fifty k already?! What the fuck? Princey what did you do?”

Virgil waited for the nightly call “Hey what the fuck how is the goal at sixty k? How the fuck princey?”

He laughed “I asked the internet for help, I think most of it’s from tiktok, you’re going to have to play disney emo nightmare”

“fuck you princey and your stupid obsession with disney.”

“you have an obsession with my chemical romance and Brendon Urie”

“name three other artists I play on here then bitch.”

“Mother Mother, Lily Allen and as of late Derivakat” Roman says without hesitation.

Virgil was speechless for a second, then hung up. “fucking bitch, you guys know what time it is” he played Teenagers.

A week and a half passed and the funds had slowly been going up, and Virgil and Roman’s calls continued nightly as usual.

Virgil and Roman met up a few times to study for finals, sometimes with Remus and Logan, sometimes without.

the goal just barely missed the end of finals. Virgil smirked “No disney today, or ever because you people missed the goal byyyyy” Virgil checked the go fund me “three thousand dollars. I’d say better luck next time but there won’t be a next time.” he chuckled. The phone rang and Virgil picked up, knowing it was Princey.

“oooh too late princey no disney songs during my shift.”

“you might want to check the gofundme one last time my dear emo nightmare.”

Virgil refreshes the page “first of all, I’m not yours bitch second- what the fuck, how?” the goal had been met.

Roman laughs “play the disney emo. Play. The fucking. Disney.”

Virgil could tell he was gonna gloat so he hung up.

Virgil grumbles and gets the disney queued “ok fine the goal was met, so time for my suffering, I have queued Fixer Upper from Frozen because it’s a shitty song with a shitty message. Make a man out of you because I like Mulan and for everyone’s inconvenience I have How Far I’ll Go so have fun with that stuck in your head.”

Roman was a bit insulted when Emo nightmare hung up on him, so he called him back once the songs had ended “wasn’t so hard was it?”

“for you maybe, it was for me,” Virgil hung up and blocked the number.

Over the Summer both Virgil and Roman found themselves missing their talks. Roman so much so he applied for one of the newly opened spots for the next semester from 2-5 pm.

Virgil drove onto campus at 4, putting on campus radio and was met with disney. the song ended and the new host spoke “and I hope everyone liked that, up now is a short commercial break.”

Virgil nearly swerved off the road and pulled over and called the station.

Roman picked up. “Hey what the actual FUCK?” Virgil says as soon as he does.

Roman laughs “oh how the tables have turned Emo Nightmare”

“I hate you, I fucking hate you what the actual fuck princey”

he laughed more “You yourself said that working here is nice, and there was an opening, so I took it. You should be happy, I mean now I won’t brother you about playing disney.”

Virgil frowned “yeah yeah, whatever princey have fun with that.”

“oh I will emo nightmare, I absolutely will.” Roman hung up feeling happy in a way he hadn’t felt all summer.

Virgil unpacked his stuff in his new dorm, he was a little pissed but also excited. Maybe he and princey would finally meet face to face. Why am I excited about that? I hate him, at the least he annoyed me every day for months, but he did raise a bunch of money. Even if his disney obessed ass is super annoying.

Roman walked in at 6 “hey Virgil, I’m guessing you’re going to be my roommate?”

Virgil looked up from his laptop “I guess, don’t take my monsters from the fridge and we’ll be golden, or blast disney 24/7″

Roman chuckled “what do you have against disney?”

“Micky Mouse killed my parents in front of me after I said that Merida was my favorite princess.” Virgil said dryly.

Roman chuckled “that’s why I dedicated my life to the mouse.”

“That’s why I swore to get my revenge on the mouse.”

“I won’t blast disney 24/7 but you can’t blast your emo music.” Roman says

Virgil snorted “dude I have the worst anxiety I don’t even own a speaker. so you don’t blast your music, I won’t blast mine and we’ll be fine.”

“Deal,”

Roman called that night like always and Virgil was ready “aww Princey, did you miss me that much?”

“not really, but I’m still trying to get you to willingly play a disney song.”

Virgil rolled his eyes “you know what, it’s a new year, time for a new leaf, I’ll humor you princey and play a disney song.”

“wait really?”

Virgil queued up Mad At Disney “no.” he hung up and the song started.

Virgil and Roman went back to their usual routine of lowkey flirting with each other during Virgil’s shift, and sometimes during Roman’s.

They where getting along well as roomates but hadn’t figured out that they where each other’s Princey and emo nightmare.

Somehow he and Princey had gotten into an argument about if Cruella would be a good or bad movie. Roman had hope it would be, Virgil wasn’t so convinced.

“Princey, she is a completely evil character, she can’t be redeemable, she shouldn’t be. She wanted to make puppies into a coat, that’s fucked up. There’s no black and white she’s bad and that’s that.”

“Maybe if you gave the movie a chance!”

“fuck no! did you not hear what I just fucking said?”

“then how about we see it then we can see who’s right?”

“fine, I’m free at three this Satuday.” Virgil said, way too caught up in the moment.

“same, see you then emo nightmare, I’ll be by the doors waiting.”

“fine, but I’m going to be right.”

“then it’s a date!”

“I guess it is!” Virgil hung up.

he didn’t realize he’d said yes to going out on a date with a guy he didn’t even know until the next day.

The whole campus was freaking out about it since the station had blown up quite a bit because of Virgil and Roman’s nightly arguments.

Roman left early, he’d dressed up a bit, and had a disney shirt with a little crown logo on it, it wasn’t that obvious but he figured it’d be telling enough.

Virgil put on a bit more eyeliner then usual and fishnets under his ripped jeans but that was about it, he chose to be petty and waited until about 3:20 to go to the doors where Roman wait waiting.

Virgil walked passed him at first. Roman saw him “emo nightmare?”

Virgil stopped “are you fucking kidding me?” he got a few glares from parents. “You’re princey? my fucking roommate?”

“I did not plan that, but yeah I am, and you’re my emo nightmare.”

Virgil rolled his eyes “still not yours princey, come on the movies about to start.”

They exited the movie and Virgil grinned “I fucking told you it’d be bad, I told you!”

“yeah yeah, you did it was bad. Want to get some coffee?”

“sure, I’ll pay,” Virgil said casually.

Roman grinned “I’ll win you over one day my emo nightmare.”

“stop begging me to play disney music and maybe you will.”

What was your thought process when creating the music for Deepwoken? I've heard small bits of the music in Q&A's and videos and it sounds amazing, not only as a standalone soundtrack but it also fits in with the in-game environment/map really well.

oghh this was asked a while ago (2021, even!), but i kinda forgot i had a tumblr. better now than never though, right?

-----

normally when i get asked for a music commission by Monad, the devs already have some sort of idea of what the track should feel like. the way the process of getting some sort of musical prototype up goes like this: 1) i get asked to make music for a specific area or gameplay moment, 2) i ask client (most often it's Rag) to tell me some things about the thing i'm making the music for - what's the atmosphere? what's the short version of lore behind it? any recurring characters? i also ask them to provide me with pictures (if applicable), and musical references (if they have any specific inspirations in mind). 3) i make a prototype track - a sort of barebones frame upon which i expand later. i send it to the devs for feedback. 4) once feedback is gathered, send it back in for more feedback. 5) repeat steps 3 & 4 until client is satisfied 6) let the track settle for a day (i'll expand on this in a bit), 7) send over final product!

-----

the reason for step #6 is, often times i spend long stretches of time working on a track, nailing down details to a certain goal as best as i can. however, there is a side-effect to this, kind of like what happens to visual artists staring at their own art for hours - you start seeing mistakes and errors where there are really none, and you stop seeing the very glaring obvious issues that might stand out to an outsider appreciating your work.

so basically, once i decide 'this is the final product', i always wait until the next day to give it a final pass and send it to the client. it's a sort of failsafe - in the event i do have a major cock-up in the musicmaking process and somehow miss it, it becomes a lot easier to spot errors like that when you haven't heard the song for at least 8 hours (or however long you sleep for - i like to listen to yesterday's tracks the next morning after breakfast, so often times the not-hearing-the-song timespan is longer).

in addition to that, setting a track aside for a longer period of time allows you to see your own work in a different light. i remember for some of the later tracks in Deepwoken OST Vol. 1, there were times where i thought 'this track is trash, i just want to get this over with' after working on such tracks for long stretches of time late at night, only to realise they were actually pretty good the next morning.

-----

i guess also, for some tracks, i try to do extra research into whatever style is asked of me. sometimes, this will be taking inspiration from OSTs of other games (can you tell i played Disco Elysium sometime before making 'Of Smoke And Steel'?). sometimes, it's listening to real world music. for example, for 'Pyres of Glass' and 'In Starstruck Sands', i listened to traditional Near and Middle-Eastern music to get some inspiration from real-life music of cultures that live in desert-y regions. i'd much rather try to create authentic, realistic-sounding music in a way that respects the style's cultural roots, rather than make goofy generic-sounding 'desert' music.

-----

hope this answers your question! sorry for the lowkey long rambling - but that's why people ask me questions here instead of twitter B)

chapters; 1 - 2 - 3 - ?

dom.cheol has donated $250

angelhan: :( i still cant believe i missed ur morning show…

chwenon: me too, i wouldn’t have stayed up til 6am had i known lol

sleepy_wonu: tbf, i couldve gotten kicked out of lab if i got caught watching… worth it tho

dom.cheol: i was at work but anything for u, baby.

You can’t help but pout at the camera reading the comments; knowing that some of your viewers were working or in class when you had done your surprise show. “Aww, m’sorry… I know it was so out of place for me but… You guys probably get it too, right?” You pause, sliding off of the pillow you were sitting on top of. You’d done a short show tonight; doing a strip tease for the camera before mounting a pillow and grinding against it until you came; fingertips gripping onto the silk as breathy moans spilled from your lips.

“Y’know? When you wake up and you’re just so needy.”

hoshi_tiger_xx: all the time, baby!

gentleman_josh95: literally me this morning ;(

“Right? See you guys get me!” You giggle. The sound of donations and comments sound off in the background as you zone out for a second.

It had already been a couple days since then and this was your first show back. You and Seungcheol had texted sporadically; a little bit of awkwardness on both ends if you were completely honest. He seemed genuinely shy which was not what you expected at first but you also knew it must’ve been weird for him to suddenly have unrestricted access to you. Seungcheol seemed to be unsure of what he was able to ask you or talk to you about, even though you had assured him that you wanted to get to know him just like regular friends.

In your case, Seungcheol was undeniably hot and seemed to really like you which sent the butterflies in your stomach soaring each and every time your phone pinged.

kitty_junjun: hey can i ask a weird question

You tilt your head, eyes blinking cutely at the camera. “Of course!”

kitty_junjun: do u think you’ll ever have a show with someone else? Like a guest or sth? I know we’ve asked before but i’m just curious since your anniversary is comin up again...

Biting your lip, you watch as the others chime in, asking the same question. In truth, you had considered it maybe once or twice. But that came with risks. Not only would you have to find someone who was okay with being on camera with you, but you also ran the risk of losing viewers if they weren’t happy with who it was or how it turned out.

Seungcheol bites his lip reading the comments; he’d thought about it too.

He thought about if he’d be jealous, which he convinced himself he wouldn’t be. He would.

And whether or not he would pay to be the person to join you on cam and fuck you in front of all your viewers.

He definitely would.

“Mmm… I mean, I definitely thought about it before? But wouldn’t it be weird to see someone else on my shows? And, like, an actual… guy?” You watch the comments fly past, donations getting lost in the flurry of comments saying that you should do it.

universe_WZ: and miss the chance of seeing u getting fucked and put in ur place like a good girl?

universe_WZ: i will pay top dollar

alphagyu97: same

artist8hao: also same

dom.cheol: you already know how much we’d all love to see your cute lil cunt getting filled up with a real cock, sweetheart.

You bite your lip in thought, glancing at the camera with a coy expression. “Hmm, okay! I’ll keep thinking about it… I really want to but it’s gonna take some time to find the right person and make sure they’re okay with being on cam with me too~”

j__min: u should ask me, i cam sometimes too… we should collab ;)

Trying to hide the awkwardness, you laugh it off, tucking a few stray hairs behind your ear. “Oh? A camboy that watches me? That’s interesting~”

There were usually only 13 of your viewers who you considered to be your ‘regulars’ and you knew them all by their usernames. Of course, there were others who seemed to comment here and there and lots of anonymous donations and comments as well. But the newcomer seemed to be very interested in you and you weren’t sure how to take it just yet.

“Hmm~ Okay! I think I’m gonna end the show here! It’s getting kinda late now, huh? I ended up staying and chatting too long again~”

dom.cheol has donated $300

universe_WZ has donated $100

dom.cheol: it’s okay baby we like talking to u :)

sleepy_wonu: agreed

You stick your tongue out, winking at the camera before you say your goodbyes and last few thank you’s.

“I’ll see you guys next time~ Sleep well and dream of me!”

Seungcheol takes a deep breath, rolling his computer chair away from his desk as soon as you go offline. You’d been as cute as you normally were, but this time he felt like your lust filled eyes pierced the screen a little harder than usual.

He reaches for his phone, opening your text window before typing a quick response. ‘Great show tonight, baby. ;)’ Pausing, he wonders if it’s a little too weird to text right after you’d finished a show; but instead hits send. The read receipt shows up immediately after which alerts Seungcheol you already had your text window up when he messaged you.

babygirl 🍒 : i was just about to message u!! hehe, how are u?

Seungcheol bites his lip. Would it be too much to call? He ponders.

‘Hey, is it okay to call? If ur busy, it’s okay. Just figured it’d be quicker than typing.’ He hits send before he can regret it, watching as the read receipt shows up under his message again.

In a few seconds, it’s his phone that rings, your display name at the top as he accepts your call.

“Cheollie!” Seungcheol’s heart threatens to beat out of his chest at your nickname for him, hand clutching the phone tightly as he tries to calm himself down. “Hey, sweetheart. Sorry, you must be tired? I just thought this would’ve been quicker.” He chuckles, standing from his computer chair as he makes his way towards his bed.

“Oh, not at all! I’m just tidying up so I have you on speaker right now~ If that’s okay?”

“Mm, of course, baby.”

Seungcheol takes the time to lay in his bed, a deep sigh escaping him as he relaxes into the sheets. “Everything okay, ‘Cheol?” Your voice is soft and gentle; music to his ears as he stares at the ceiling.

“Yeah! Just… the comments have been weird, huh?” He ends it with an awkward laugh, hoping you knew exactly what he was talking about.

“Oh, are you talking about people asking me to invite someone or the new guy in the comments?” Seungcheol doesn’t know which he wants to talk about first. “I guess both?” He inquires, hoping that it’s not too prying.

You make a humming noise on the other end, deciding which one to address first. “Mm, I mean… I would love to have someone else on the show with me but I don’t know… Don’t you think it’d be weird? I feel like I’ve been doing my show for so long by myself but maybe I should start trying other stuff…” You trail off, leaving it open-ended for Seungcheol’s opinion.

“It’s ultimately up to you, sweetheart. But---But if you do, just promise me you’ll make sure everything with this person checks out, okay? I mean--I just want you to be safe, don’t let it just be some weirdo off the internet.” Seungcheol blushes, words leaving his lips in a hurried mess. Sometimes he hated how overprotective he was of you. “And--and make sure they take a STD test and stuff, y’know?” Your giggles pour out of the phone receiver as Seungcheol hides his face in one of his pillows.

“Is this in reference to the ‘j__min’ person offering their services?” Yes.

“No…” Seungcheol mutters, somehow already knowing that you didn’t believe it.

“‘Cheol~ don’t worry. I’m not gonna get into cahoots with someone I don’t know. And honestly, it kinda weirds me out how he came out of nowhere… Makes me wonder if he was some anonymous viewer or donator this entire time and then decided to have a name.” There’s a pause on your end; Seungcheol hearing the washing machine going off.

“And anyway, if I were to do a cam show with someone else, I think I’d want to know them really well, don’cha think? Like a friend, maybe?”

Seungcheol lets you go to sleep after 15 more minutes of chatting; making sure you down a glass of water and get some food delivered before he lets you go for the night.

He places his phone down onto the nightstand, tugging his shirt off as he stands. But his phone pings not a second later, confusion crossing his features as he picks it up.

‘Hey hyung, don’t forget we’re going to that new diner across town tomorrow after work!!! I’m gettin me some disco fries baby!!!! - ggukie’

Seungcheol ends work 30 minutes later than he should the next day and Jeongguk watches from the concession stand as Seungcheol trudges over, fingertips running through his silvery-blue hair as he sighs.

“Some kid fuckin’ puked in the restroom and nobody wanted to clean it up so guess who did.” He complains, leaning his head onto the cool countertop as Jeongguk pats his head comfortingly. “Not my job but you should’ve called someone else. Where was Yoongi-hyung?”

“Gone, as per usual. We both know he clocks out 30 minutes early.”

The two laugh half-heartedly, making sure they have their things before they leave for the night. The night shift crew had already checked in just a few minutes prior; Taehyung and Hoseok waving them off as they leave.

They hop into Seungcheol’s car; Jeongguk already fiddling with the radio controls as Seungcheol puts in the address for the new diner that had opened up. “I hope this place is good. It seems to get a lot of good reviews for a place that just opened up, like, two weeks ago.” Jeongguk nods, settling into his seat as Seungcheol pulls out of the parking lot.

“We live in a city that’s straight out of an episode of Riverdale. I mean, we work at a roller rink? And there’s diners all over? But we’re in the present day with present day technology? Soon we’ll be Archie and Jughead. Except I want to be Jughead since I have the tattoos so you can be Archie. Or we can both be, like, from the Serpents but I still want to be Jughead.”

Seungcheol raises a brow at Jeongguk’s references.

“I don’t know that show so all of that just went over my head.”

It takes approximately 30 minutes to get across town; the huge neon lights from the diner welcoming them into the parking lot as Seungcheol parks the car somewhere near the entrance.

“God, was it just me or did that take a long time? I’m fuckin’ starving.” Seungcheol mutters; hopping out of the driver’s seat. “I think you’re just hungry, hyung.” Jeongguk offers, jogging up to the other male as they make their way to the doors.

Thankfully, the place seemed relatively empty for a Thursday night, a lone male standing at the front of the diner in a pastel coloured uniform.

“Hey! Welcome to Dynamite, my name’s Jun! Table for two?” Seungcheol nods slowly, eyes narrowing at the male who, for whatever reason, seemed familiar.

Jun picks up two menus, guiding them to a booth in the far corner of the diner. “We’re just a little understaffed tonight so I’ll also be your server tonight! Can I get you guys some water to start?” The two nod as they sit in the multi-coloured booth. “Hey, can I ask you something?” Jun blinks, nodding slowly as Seungcheol peers up at him from where he’s seated.

“I feel like I’ve met you? It’s weird. I’m pretty sure we’ve never met though…?” Seungcheol trails off, confused eyes meeting Jun’s. Jun wracks his brain, unsure, but feeling the same way. “I dunno, I feel the same but I’m pretty sure we never met. Maybe a past life thing?”

Jeongguk laughs, eyes too focused on the menu in front of him. “Oh, that’d be weird as fuck.”

“Anyway, I’ll come back with your water!” Jun walks away, leaving Seungcheol and Jeongguk to go through the menu.

“Hey, Seungcheol-hyung?”

“Mm?”

“I know you said you’re usually busy on the weekends but I’m doing a PUBG stream on Saturday and was wondering if you wanted to hang? I asked Yoongi-hyung too and he’s coming over to drink and hang out.” Seungcheol’s lips press into a firm line, eyes burning holes into the menu in front of him.

Jeongguk was a video game streamer sometimes and his streaming schedule lined up with yours which is why Seungcheol almost never had a chance to watch or be a part of Jeongguk’s. “Um, what time is it at?”

“I’m thinking of streaming from like 6PM to midnight or somethin’. But you don’t have to be there the entire time! Just thought it’d be cool to hang out on the weekends for once.”

Seungcheol nods slowly, glancing up at Jeongguk who’s already staring back at him. “I can probably show up for a bit? I need to leave by 10 though, I, uh, sleep early sometimes.” He knows Jeongguk doesn’t buy it, but a smile paints itself onto the younger male’s face in an instant.

“Cool! Wow, didn’t think you’d say yes actually.”

The older male nods, a tight smile on his lips. Your cam schedule was almost always on time; Fridays, Saturdays, every other Monday, and every other Wednesday at 11PM. Sometimes you’d have surprise shows, like before, but you often kept to your schedule unless something important came up. “I know, I get so busy on the weekends, y’know?”

Jun comes back with their waters, setting them down on the table before fishing out a pad and paper to take their orders. “What are you doing on the weekends anyway? I feel like I’ve never asked directly but you never return my calls on Fridays and Saturdays.” Seungcheol freezes mid-order, hands gripping the laminated menu. “Um, and a cherry coke, please, thank you. And I told you ‘Guk, I… I just like to unwind on the weekends, I like to enjoy my quiet time so--so sometimes I just turn my phone off, y’know?.”

Jeongguk puts his order in with Jun who runs their order back before he walks off again. “Is working at the roller rink that bad? I know it can get wild sometimes but… are you thinking about quitting?”

In truth, Seungcheol had thought about it before when he was first starting out at the roller rink. But he also knew it paid too well for him to leave just yet. “Nah, just… it gets loud, y’know? I end up doing jobs around the place that I’m not qualified to do. And with Namjoon-hyung gone still, we’re shorthanded. I thought about picking up another job for some extra cash, but with what time?” Seungcheol grabs his glass of water, lips puckered around the plastic straw as he takes a sip.

“You should cam!”

Water sprays all over the table as Seungcheol sputters, choking on the liquid. “The---what!?” Jun runs over with a stack of pink tissues, helping to wipe up the water as Jeongguk stares from across the table with a wide grin. He waits until Jun leaves again; eyes fixated on Seungcheol and the crimson blush that coats his cheeks and ears. “It’d be easy money for you. You’re not exactly ugly, and you can cover your face!”

“Why exactly are you suggesting that!? Why’d you go straight for that!?” Seungcheol screams under his breath.

“Let’s be real, it’s crossed my mind so it’s probably crossed yours too. You can always just game too, but if you need cash quick y’know… And hey, I have some extra equipment so…” Jeongguk trails off, wiggling his eyebrows at Seungcheol suggestively.

Seungcheol had actually thought about that too. Maybe once or twice.

But after he’d spoken to you and found out just how difficult it really was to keep your viewers engaged and how difficult it was trying to find new ideas to bring to your cam show, he knew it wasn’t as easy as most people thought it’d be. You always put in extra effort in your cam shows and it was a whole production with effort and ideas. Sometimes it took you days to even come up with a theme for a show and sometimes it didn’t do as well as you’d hoped.

“Um, if I ever do, I’ll let you know ‘Guk.”

Saturday comes sooner than Seungcheol knows and he’s antsy. He could barely even enjoy your cam show from the night prior knowing that he had to haul ass back home after Jeongguk’s stream. He plots out the drive home; times it just perfectly so he still has some spare time to relax before your show starts.

For a second, he wonders if it was the right decision or if he should’ve just stayed home like he normally did. But he quickly shakes the thoughts out of his head; glad to get out of his apartment and spend time with his friends on the weekends for once.

He makes it to Jeongguk’s place on time, a box of beer tucked under his arm when he knocks on the door. Shockingly, it’s Yoongi on the other end who greets him; a lopsided smile on his face as he ushers Seungcheol inside. “‘Guk was setting up so…”

“I brought more beer! He said you were spending the night on his sofa so drink all you want, hyung.” Yoongi nods, plopping back down onto the sofa as Seungcheol makes his way towards Jeongguk’s PC room.

The entire room is lined with LEDs, posters of anime and various video games lining all the spaces between the soundproofing pads that Jeongguk haphazardly attached to the wall.

“Yooo, how’s the setup coming?”

“I’m almost ready!”

It takes 20 more minutes of Jeongguk fiddling before he sits in his expensive gaming chair; Seungcheol close behind as he watches the younger male pull up the loading screen. “You’re not drinking, hyung?”

Seungcheol shakes his head, legs crossed as he leans back in the spare desk chair. “Nah, I drove here. Gotta be responsible, kid.” Jeongguk shakes his head, placing his headset and mic on before starting his stream.

“Hey guys! Welcome back to Golden Closet Gaming! I’m doing a PUBG stream tonight and one of my closest friends is here so if you hear him on the mic, that’s definitely not a ghost this time!” A concerned look crosses Seungcheol’s features but he laughs lightly. “Hey guys, I’m Seung---I’m, uh… I’m---SCOUPS!” He blurts out in a hurry; using his gaming username instead.

“And I’m your main player, JK!”

Watching Jeongguk game so seriously is interesting for Seungcheol. They take a break an hour and a half into Jeongguk’s streaming session to get food and drinks; immediately going back to the PC room right after.

But it makes Seungcheol wonder what it was like on your end to always be alone filming in your bedroom to thousands of people in such an intimate setting. For a second, it makes him sad, wondering if you ever felt lonely after your shows were over. Or if you were so tired and could barely take care of yourself.

I would’ve gladly been the one to take care of you after your shows, he thinks.

“Fuck you too, asshole! Get the fuck out!”

Jeongguk’s screaming brings him out of his sad thoughts; a brow raised as he peers at the screen. How the younger male had the energy to game for so long was beyond him sometimes.

“Uhhh anyway comments are asking what I should stream next week? I dunno, give me some ideas? Not the SIMS again though...” Jeongguk mutters. “Oh, j__min said I should play The Last of Us?”

The name has Seungcheol perking up in an instant, leaning over Jeongguk’s shoulder as his eyes dance over the comments.

j__min: bro u were supposed to stream that like 4 streams ago, wtf

seokGENIE: its a good game tho, id be interested in seeing how badly u do

j__min: actually yea me too lmao

Seungcheol’s eyes narrow slightly. Surely it couldn’t be? He thinks. The typing style wasn’t the same at all but the username was, which sent Seungcheol’s mind into a frenzy at the possibility.

But unfortunately for Seungcheol, Jeongguk launches into another match which means he had to wait another time to ask about it. He notes it mentally, making sure to get answers as soon as he can.

10PM comes sooner than Seungcheol expects and he lets Jeongguk know when it’s 9:50PM and while they’re in the middle of a break that he needs to go.

“Damn, where did time go? But okay, hyung! Sorry we didn’t really talk and I just gamed the entire time but maybe next time we can actually do something else? Go out for drinks maybe?” He shoots the older male his best puppy eyes until Seungcheol sighs and gives in, nodding as he fishes for his car keys.

“I’ll see you at work, okay?”

Seungcheol waves at Yoongi still glued to the sofa; a tiny wave of his own as he wishes Seungcheol a safe drive home.

He makes it home at exactly 10:32PM, toeing his shoes off before shucking off his jacket and tossing it onto the back of the sofa. He shuffles to the kitchen and grabs a few beers out of the fridge; already downing two entire bottles before he even makes it to his PC.

The buzz feels good when he sits down, taking a swig of his third bottle as he boots up his computer. In the meantime, he checks his phone, scrolling through apps and deleting notifications.

A text pops up at the top of his phone’s screen.

babygirl 🍒 : see u soon :)

Seungcheol smirks; ego inflated knowing that he was the only one getting that text message.

He checks the clock, 10:56PM, and loads up your profile, simultaneously finishing off his third can of beer since he’d gotten home.

For whatever reason, you’re nervous when you finally sit down in front of your camera setup tonight. You adjust your baby pink lace bra that Seungcheol had gotten you; a cherry blush on your cheeks as the giddiness pours over you.

Checking the clock, you notice it’s already 10:59PM, finger hovering over the ‘rec’ button before pressing it.

It takes a second before the comments already start flooding in; the sound of donations and comments flying across the screen in an instant.

“Whoa~ You guys are so eager tonight, huh? Already so many donations! Thank you!” You shift slightly onto your side, biting your lip. “We’re already so close to the minimum donations for me to start… what’s up with you guys?”

tangerine_kwan: I’m so glad to see u, yesterday was not enough

therealchan99: fuckin talk abt it dude, i almost quit my job im stressed i need to see u princess

dom.cheol has donated $500

dom.cheol: fuck, baby i need to see your pretty lil pussy already i’m so fuckin hard

Your eyes go wide with Seungcheol’s massive donation. He usually waited until you were mid-show or towards the end to donate such huge amounts of money and yesterday he seemed relatively quiet during your show. It threw you off slightly, but you just assumed he might’ve just been going through some things at the time. “Seems like you guys had a rough week, huh?”

xcaliburDK: gOD u dont even know, ur literally my stress relief, beautiful

kitty_junjun: yea i just started working at a new place and its… weird, just glad to be off today

Pouting at the camera, you lean in a little closer. “Hmm, guess I should start then, shouldn’t I~? Since you all seem like you need a ‘lil escape~”

gentleman_josh95 has donated $45

sleepy_wonu has donated $70

sleepy_wonu: please put us out of our misery, baby

You can’t help but giggle, sliding the bra straps down your shoulders before you unhook the material and toss it to the other side of the bed. “This cute setup didn’t last very long this time! Should I upload some pics later to my private room?”

alphagyu97: plz

chwenon: yes yes yes lewds plz

“Okay~” You pause, fingertips hooked onto the sides of your panties. “I actually… wanted to try a new toy…” You murmur, shyness taking over as you slowly slide your already wet panties down your thighs. Sitting back down, you slide them off completely before you place them next to you, glancing at the comments as you cross your ankles.

artist8hao: wait was that…

universe_WZ: i think so

hoshi_tiger_xx: plz plz plz let us seeeeee

dom.cheol has donated $200

dom.cheol: spread your legs, sweetheart. Let daddy see.

You clench your teeth at the arousal that pools in your lower abdomen; shaky legs parting towards the camera. Squirming slightly, the plug that you had eased into your ass shifts, making you mewl at the feeling. You’d tried using your fingers in the past, but by far, the toy was the biggest you’d used yet.

“I--I… I bought this toy m-myself ‘cause I wanted to… wa--wanted to… start learning how to t-take cock in my ass too…”

The way you sit on the bed has the toy fully seated inside of you, toes curling against the bed sheets as your hazy eyes flit to the camera. “I dunno how long I’m gonna last, it feels so good~” You moan, grinding against the sheets underneath you.

angelhan has donated $150

angelhan: i’m begging please, panty stuffing

You bite your lip, eyes dancing over to the lace material sitting next to you. “Hmm~ I don’t think I’ve ever done that on my show before… Should I try it?” You ask cutely, flashing the camera a cheeky smile. The donations pour in like rain; the pinging making your stream lag for a second as it tries to keep up.

dom.cheol has donated $400

tangerine_kwan has donated $100

dom.cheol: fuck, sweetheart lets see you get those panties fucking soaked

universe_WZ has donated $200

“Guess we have our answer?” You laugh airily, reading a few of the comments that were basically begging you to.

Spreading your legs as wide as you can, you maneuver yourself against your pillows; grabbing the lacy material. You quickly adjust the camera with a remote, zooming in until it’s focused on your soaking folds. “Ngh, I’m already so fuckin’ wet… this plug is really making me feel so full~”

dom.cheol: i bet your cute lil ass could barely take my fuckin cock huh

“Mmh, is daddy gonna fuck my ass and make me cum nice and hard?”

yes, yes yes, god yes!

Seungcheol could die right now and be happy.

He wraps a hand around his cock, hips shallowly thrusting up into his closed fist as he watches you run your own fingertips through your wet folds before you sink two of them into your tight pussy. His eyes flutter shut, the image of himself fucking your tight ass as you whine and beg for his cum dancing behind his eyelids.

The alcohol in his body has him on edge even quicker; the grip he has on his cock loosening so he doesn’t cum as quickly.

“A-ah… g--guess it’s time to try this…” You whisper, reaching for the lacy panties. You drag the material up your thigh teasingly, swinging it around your wet fingertips before you place it against your entrance.

You take a deep breath, slowly pushing the panties into your pussy.

tangerine_kwan: oh my god oh my god

alphagyu97: fuck thsts so hot fuck

angelhan: spread your legs more, please god

Your lust filled eyes glance towards the comments, shakily spreading your legs as far as they can go. “O-oh god it--it feels suh--so good…” You mewl, pressing the material further and further into your pussy.

“It’s d-different but… but it’s--it’s--mmh!”

You’re cumming before you know it, toes curling against the sheets as you cum around the toy in your ass and your fingers and panties deep inside your pussy.

Your legs threaten to clamp shut in an instant, which you fight off; the sound of donations and coins clinking flooding your eardrums. “I--fuh--fuck, I--I didn’t know I was gonna c-cum from that!” You let out a breathy laugh, moaning as you continue to push the panties inside of you until the fabric is completely gone from the camera’s view.

chwenon: now will u sell those

hoshi_tiger_xx: please once again i am begging I AM BEGGING

“Aww~ I wish I could… but you guys know my rules~” You pout; body warm and fuzzy after your first, unexpected orgasm. “God, I didn’t… I really didn’t know that’d make me cum so easily~”

dom.cheol: fuck sweetheart, your cute lil cunt cums so fuckin easily

“I know~ I have such a greedy pussy… Always want something filling me up…” You wink at the camera, reaching for a toy that was out of view. “I have another toy~ hehe, tonight is just full of new things, huh?”

You show the toy off to the camera, shifting so that you're on your knees instead. “It looks like a regular dildo right? But it’s full of cum! Not real cum anyway, but cum lube… It’s not the same but it’ll have to do for now~”

therealchan99: oh fuck oh god

sleepy_wonu: aww is the princess gonna let it cum in her cute ass?

artist8hao has donated $75

kitty_junjun has donated $50

dom.cheol: lets see that ass fuckin take all that cock baby

dom.cheol: let it cum in ur pretty lil hole

dom.cheol: fuck

You zoom your camera back out, turning to your side enough so that you could still see your monitor but also still be in frame. “Yeah? Does daddy wanna see how a good girl takes cock in her ass?” Moaning, you reach behind you, fingers on the end of the plug as you slowly pull it out. The stretch makes your back arch slightly; legs trembling when the larger part of the toy finally breaches past the puckered muscle.

The sudden emptiness only makes you reach for the dildo faster, covering it with lube before you place it against your ass. “D’you think I can take it?”

tangerine_kwan: i kno u can baby

sleepy_wonu: yes eys yes

dom.cheol: daddy knows u can, sweetheart

You place the toy at your puckered hole, biting your lip and telling yourself to relax before you slowly start easing it into your ass. “O-oh fuck…” You had made sure the toy was on the smaller size since it was your first time but the stretch of it still had your body tensing up almost immediately.

It takes a long and torturous minute until the toy is fully seated in your ass; body buzzing at the sensation. “G-god it--fuck, it feels even better than the plug~” You whine, maneuvering until you were sitting down on the toy completely.

You let your body adjust to the new feeling for a moment before you’re bouncing on the dildo, loud cries and garbled moans spilling from your lips. The new feeling has you chasing your high insanely fast; tuning out the comments and noises as you focus on your own pleasure.

Your mind can’t help but imagine Seungcheol again; his hands roaming your skin and his deep voice growling filthy praises into your ear as he fucks you from behind. You clench around the toy and the panties still in your pussy, wrecked sobs on your lips at the thought.

Before Seungcheol, you always imagined nameless hands on your body or even resorted to thinking about other videos you’d seen to help get you off. Some days it was harder and some days you were cumming in under five minutes. But now that Seungcheol had a name and face to you, it was impossible for you to imagine anyone else fucking you.

“Shi---it, I--I wanna cum!”

dom.cheol: already? Fuckin greedy lil ass

dom.cheol: cum, sweetheart. Let daddy cum in ur tight ass too

universe_WZ has donated $100

alphagyu97 has donated $75

You alternate from bouncing on the dildo to swiveling your hips; reaching a free hand down to rub circles around your swollen clit. “Already? Can I cum?” You whisper, mind already a puddle of goo now that you were so close.

kitty_junjun: cum

xcaliburDK: cum

chwenon: cum

dom.cheol: you heard them, sweetheart. Cum. Now.

Seungcheol’s grip on his cock tightens after he sends the comment; growls spilling from his lips as he watches you bounce on the toy. His cock throbs in his hold, already feeling himself just as close to his orgasm as you were to yours.

“Fu--fuck I’m cumming! D---daddy!” You cry, slamming yourself down onto the toy as you cum hard. Seungcheol bites his lip to keep in his own screams; streaks of cum landing on his shirt and jeans as he works himself through his own orgasm.

He tries to keep his eyes focused on you in the midst of his orgasm, watching as you squeeze the base of the dildo until the cum inside starts to pour into your ass. “O--oh god!” You mewl, still thrusting the toy into your ass.

Seungcheol’s mouth goes dry when you reach a shaky hand between your legs, fingertips dipping into your pussy and pulling the soaked lace until half of it is in view of the camera. His grip on his cock tightens, moans on his lips when you then slowly start pulling the dildo out of your ass; the fake lube immediately spilling out of your ass and onto the bed sheets and sliding down onto the panties.

universe_WZ: oh my god oh ymg f

xcaliburDK: eyeeeeeee

kitty_junjun: i

You push the fake cum out, soft cries on your lips as the last bits of your orgasm roll through your body. The fake cum feels slightly cold which sends a shiver up your spine as it drips down your legs.

“Mmh… god that---that was intense…” You mumble, upper body slumping against the sheets.

You reach a hand between your legs again, making sure you’re in the camera’s view when you tug on the panties again; this time pulling them all the way out as you groan.

alphagyu97: if ur not selling those can it be a giveaway

alphagyu97: make it a raffle

You toss the soiled fabric to the side, mindful of the puddle of fake cum soaking into the sheets as you readjust your tired self in front of the camera. “You guys really want these, huh?” You laugh, responding to a few other stray comments asking for the soaked material. Your entire body is tingling from all the new sensations, mind going a mile a minute with the adrenaline coursing through your veins.

Slumping forward, you thank your viewers again, yawning as you stretch out. “I think I need a bubble bath now~ ‘m so messy!”

hoshi_tiger_xx: we love a messy girl ;)

therealchan99: fuck yea we do

Letting a few more viewers leave donations, you start saying your goodbyes; wishing everyone a good weekend before you blow a kiss to the camera and sign off.

Seungcheol sends one last donation of $550, jaw clenched and cock still throbbing.

He reaches for his phone on instinct, opening your text window. Pausing, he grins. Maybe it was the alcohol in his system but he opens his camera app, flipping it so that it’s on him as he snaps picture after picture of his cum covered torso and his free hand still wrapped around his hard cock.

Smirking, he opens your text window again, thumb dancing across the keyboard with renewed energy.

‘fuck, princess. your fuckin show got me so hard. those panties were fuckin soaking from how much u liked getting ur ass fucked huh? I bet i could get u to cum just from me fuckin your cute lil ass... probably wouldnt even need to touch ur clit or fuck your cunt to get your tight walls cummin for me. but ur a greedy lil thing arent u? probably would still want a toy to keep that pussy nice n sated. fuck, im still hard even tho i already came once.’

He hits send before he thinks twice, quickly attaching a few of his own pictures before he locks his phone and tosses it onto his desk.

Seungcheol’s body is sensitive from his first orgasm still, but his hips thrust up into his closed palm again; head leaning up against the headrest as he lets out harsh breaths. His eyes flutter shut, eyelashes tickling his skin.

This time his imagination runs wild; hands tangled in your hair while he tugs on it, forcing your back straight against his chest as he fucks into you hard and fast. He imagines your sweet voice begging him to let you cum, walls tight around his cock when you fall apart on it.

“Fuck!” He cums hard, body rigid as his free hand digs into the armrest and the air is knocked out of his lungs.

Seungcheol vaguely hears his phone pinging in the background; mind hazy as the waves of his orgasm wash over his body.

When he starts to come down, he slumps against the chair, sleepiness already taking over with his two orgasms and the alcohol still in his system. He mentally makes a note to get rid of his soiled clothes another time, tiredly reaching for his phone.

He stares at it through his blurry vision, barely making out your name before he blinks the tiredness away enough to read your message.

babygirl 🍒: hehe~ does daddy want my panties then? i’ll gladly give them to u if u want them~ 😚
