𝗦𝗩𝗧 𝗜𝗡 𝗢𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗥 𝗞𝗣𝗢𝗣 𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗨𝗣𝗦

SCOUPS

monsta x. i miss seventeen and monsta x interactions, and coups was one of the members with the most. maybe it’s his rap style and stage presence, but i think seungcheol would fit in well with monsta x’s rap line :) joohoney and scoups aww

JEONGHAN

astro. this just makes sense to me. the visuals, the vocals, the stage presence? astro. plus i could see jeonghan having so much fun with this chaotic group. they’re a mess and he’s Yoon Jeonghan. they chaos oh my god i’d PAY to see it. jeonghan singing blue flame?? UGH YES

JOSHUA

cix! baejin and joshua in the same group?? i would simply pass out tyvm. no but fr i feel like shua’s voice would compliment the other cix members well? maybe it’s cause i’ve had cinema stuck in my head for Weeks, but he would hit fit SO WELL.

JUN

OnlyOneOf. despite the fact that jun is secretly a hidden member of nct dream, i feel that his solo fits the vibe of OOO. i think he’d also get along pretty well with the quieter members, but also be more open to taking a leadership roll?? idk

HOSHI

exo! exoooooo!! i know the ages don’t match but hoshi FITS sm’s vibe. i almost put him in nct, but when i heard spider, it reminded me more of the older sm sound vs the new, and i think hoshi would fit the classic sounds of exo and shinee! HOSHI IN SUPERM???? THE DREAM

WONWOO

ab6ix! this one was rlly difficult for me idk BUT i think wonwoo would be able to blend in well with this group. he has that.. idk that look? i’m not sure how to describe it, but he has That Look. plus, his raps with woojin’s would MMMM

WOOZI

okay so at first i was thinking mingyu and bts, but i feel like woozi would fit better? plus the rap line is already great i feel like woozi to the vocal line would just be fun. IDK i think he’d get along w everyone good just fit some of the 2018 songs <3

DOKYEOM

i didn’t know if i wanted dk or seungkwan in nct, but i picked dk cause i’m a Huge simp for his vocals. also his relationship with jaehyun would be SO much funnier if they were in the same group lmao. he’d probably be in 127, so imagine dk singing songs like touch and elevator <3

MINGYU

GOT7!! i know they aren’t a group anymore, but mingyu in got7 is just… I NEED IT. i was gonna put him in skz cause he’s so tall, but then thought why not the other jyp group? got7 would tease mingyu for sure AND he can cook?? i’d pay to see him perform swear not by the moon End.

THE8

wayv. he’s already an honorary member like jun, but i feel that minghao would get along better with the whole nct unit concept and the members. i can see him teasing xiaojun and kun with ten and yangyang idk IT JUST MAKES SENSE TO ME?? i think he’d enjoy talking his mother language with all other members yk?

SEUNGKWAN

since i didn’t pick nct… ykw SEUNGKWAN IN NCT DREAM. let’s do it, seungkwan and haechan in one group would be Chaos and i think he’d be perfect for segments like nct life and other shows. seungkwan is a natural entertainer, and nct is a group of entertainers. it makes sense. he’s perfect.

VERNON

the boyz. vernon is such a chill, down to earth guy that i feel like the boyz have just the right blend of chaos and levelheadedness vernon needs <3 plus new york buddies with eric ARE YOU SERIOUS?? imagine vernon and those red glasses in a room with the boyz LMAO

CHAN

ateez! i imagine him fitting so well with ateez’s 99 line. he can sing, dance, and i feel that he’d vibe well with ateez’s music video and comeback themes. like imagine snapshoot chan but in the wave mv </3 i think he’d just have so much fun :’)

[kookie-for-you]

Reaction: You Faint (Seokjin and Yoongi)

(For some reason, this is super long, so it will be split into parts)

Scenario:

You hadn’t eaten enough that day.  Or the past few days for that matter.  Or slept.  Work and school and everything in between had been getting to you.  But you’d been managing to get everything together, and put on a controlled face for your boyfriend.  If he had any idea how overworked you were lately, he would be so mad...

Fortunately, he seemed to have not picked up on your poor eating and sleeping habits lately.  Since he and the boys were so busy preparing for their next comeback, he didn’t notice when you went to bed too late (since he was also crawling into bed not long after) and he ate most of his meals at the studio.

Today, your first day off in a long while, you had planned to catch up on sleep.  But your boyfriend had invited you to the studio to see some of the music and dances they would be performing for the comeback, and you didn’t want to pass up a chance to finally spend time with him.  Not to mention you were excited for the new music!

But now that you were here, you were questioning the decision to get out of bed.  You hadn’t taken the time to eat breakfast, after having that habit for weeks, and when you thought back, you weren’t sure if you’d had more than a few bites of dinner last night.  Under the bright practice room lights, you felt yourself start to sweat.

The guys were in the middle of doing some warm-ups and stretching, and you saw your boyfriend flash you a smile and a cheeky thumbs up.  You tried to return it and stood to go grab a water bottle from the cooler in the corner.  As you took one step, your head began spinning.  Your heart was pounding and a cold sweat was broken out over every part of your body.  It almost felt like you were going to be sick, and then--oh no.  

You realized right as your vision started to blur and blacken at the corners what was happening.  You felt your legs give out, causing you to fall to the hard studio floor, completely unconscious.

Kim Seokjin/Jin

Seokjin was watching you closely--he wasn’t quite as oblivious to your state as you might have thought.  However, he hadn’t even dreamed you were this close to the edge, or he never would have suggested you come to the studio today.  As he saw you begin to fall, he was up from the ground as fast as possible, trying to make it in time to catch you.

He just barely made it over in time to protect your head cracking against the wooden floor, sliding to his knees beside you and instantly turning you over onto your back.  He felt his heart speed up, seeing your sweaty brow and closed eyes.  Dramatic gasps could be heard all around the studio, and the other boys were running over as well, six pairs of sneakers on the studio floors.

“Jagi,” he said, trying to remain calm, trying not to panic when you needed him to be calm, when all of his dongsaengs were around and panicking as well.  “Y/N, wake up.”  Instantly, his calm facade began to drop as he ran a hand through his hair anxiously and looked around.  “Someone, please, help.”

Namjoon was already kneeling down beside Seokjin, a bottle of water in hand.  “Stay calm, hyung,” he advised, and Seokjin nodded, swallowing heavily around a lump that had formed in his throat.  Namjoon brushed some of your hair from your sweaty face and placed the cool water bottle on your cheek.  “She’ll wake up,” Namjoon assured Seokjin.  

“She’s coming around already,” Yoongi said, having crouched down on your other side.

Indeed, you were groaning and turning your head away from the coldness of the bottle on your cheek, your momentary lapse in consciousness already passing.  “W-what happened,” you mumbled, eyes flickering open only to see several other sets staring back down at you.  “S-Seokjin oppa?” you questioned.

“You’re okay,” Seokjin murmured, lifting you up to hold you closer, careful to move your body slowly and gently.  He sounded on the verge of tears, and a wave of guilt fell over you as you pieced together what had happened.  “I was so scared.”

“I’m fine,” you insisted, trying to sit up.  You regretted it instantly as your head began spinning.

“Fine?!” Seokjin suddenly shouted, his extraness coming out now that your eyes were open again.  “Yah, I don’t think you know what being fine means!  You fainted, jagi!”

“Oppa, please,” you begged, cupping his cheek in your hand.  He calmed down quickly under your touch and you closed your eyes against the spinning still going on in your head.  “I maybe need a little bit of sleep,” you admit.

"Maybe,” Seokjin agreed, somewhat sarcastically and with a bit of a chuckle on the end.  He swept you up in his arms.  “I’m taking you home right now.  Rehearsal can wait.”

Min Yoongi/Suga

Yoongi was sort of pretending to stretch.  If someone asked that’s certainly what he would say he was doing.  Really though, it didn’t seem like lying on his back with his arms folded over his chest and eyes closed was doing much for his muscles.  Looked more like napping.

That meant he didn’t see you when you fainted.  He heard (and felt) a body hit the floor, hard, and the gasps and shouts that started immediately after.  He shot up from his position to see the guys hurrying over to a person on the ground, several staff members already kneeling around--you.  That was you.

No one had probably ever seen Yoongi move quite so fast.  He shoved his way past the others and the staff who were by your side, hesitating as he reached out to touch you.  “What happened?” he demanded, feeling tears in his throat.  “I didn’t pay attention for two seconds, what happened?”

“I don’t know, hyung,” Hoseok said, being the closest member.  “One second she was walking, and the next she was on the ground.”

“She looked like she fell off balance,” Jimin added.  He lifted your head up as Taehyung slid his hoodie underneath it as a makeshift pillow.  “Maybe she was dizzy?  She fainted.”

Yoongi, despite having questioned them all, barely heard the answers.  His hands were on both of your shoulders, giving you the smallest of shakes.  “Y/N, wake up,” he demanded, his voice quieter as he spoke to you.  “Wake up right now, Y/N, or I swear I will be so mad.”

“Yoongi,” Seokjin said, reaching out and pulling his hands away.  Yoongi tried halfheartedly to struggle against his hyung, but let himself be pulled into a backhug as the elder knelt behind him.  “Stay calm, all right?”

“How can I stay calm?” Yoongi asked.  “Why won’t she wake up?”

One of the staff came over at that moment with a first aid kit, handing it to Jimin.  Yoongi hadn’t even heard the kid ask for it, but Jimin took it and quickly fished out a small tube of smelling salts.  Yoongi recognized them--unfortunately, this wasn’t the first time someone had passed out in the studio.

Jimin waved the salts under your nose, and only a moment later, your eyes crinkled and slowly opened.  You groaned and brought a hand slowly to rub your eyes.  “What happened?” you asked.

Yoongi threw off Seokjin’s arms effortlessly, and instead gently placed a hand on your forehead, brushing away any stray strands.  “Y/N,” he sobbed, feeling a tear fall freely down his cheek now.  “Are you all right?  Oh my God, you idiot, you scared me so badly.”

“I’m sorry,” you said, voice quiet as you closed your eyes again to block out the bright lights shining directly into them.  “I guess eight hours of sleep in three days really isn’t enough.”

Yoongi shook his head, almost angry.  “Just because I do stupid things like that doesn’t mean you can,” he told you.  “Lay here for a minute.  When you feel strong enough to get up, I’m taking you home.”

Question

For Gladmoon Day 2: Nerine (Connection, Happiness, Security and Affection) Many, many thanks to my beta Artpharos, without whom this fic would be a bland and unreadable mess ;w; Read on AO3

---

Eleven years since they first met on Route 5. Four since they started dating. (Officially, at least. Hau always claimed they were flirting scandalously for three years before that, and Lillie was the only reason he didn’t lock them into a room and save the rest of them.) In any case, it was time.

Gladion mounted the flight of stairs leading to the final room on Mt. Lanakila. Pausing midway to check his Pokemon over again, he swallowed. Today, there was no room for careless mistakes.

Today, he would defeat the Champion.

As he cleared the last few steps and came into view of the Champion’s throne, he saw Moon crouched at one side, refreshing her Ninetales. She turned, and her eyes lit up at the sight of him.

“Gladion! I didn’t know you were coming today!” she greeted cheerily, straightening. As usual, his heart warmed at the sight of her radiant smile.

“Thought I’d surprise you,” he said with a crooked smirk. “The team and I have been making plans for your downfall.”

Moon chuckled. “Oh? So you think that today will be different from the hundreds of other times we’ve battled, hm?”

"Of course.” His fingers closed around Crobat’s Pokeball, its familiar weight reassuring in his hands.

Moon dropped the teasing at once, eyeing him thoughtfully for a moment. Then she grinned.

“All right then. Show me what you’ve got, Challen—“

“Wait!”

Moon stumbled mid-throw, almost dropping her Pokeball (Kommo-o, probably). Wobbling, she regained her balance. As Gladion snorted, she glared at him in mock exasperation.

“Next time, warn me before you startle me like that, maybe?”

“If I win… I have something to ask you.”

Moon blinked. “O….kay? What is it?”

Gladion lifted Crobat’s ball in reply, and she laughed.

“Let’s go!”

As usual, the moment the battle began, the pent-up nerves plaguing him for the past few hours disappeared. Fighting alongside his team had become second nature to him, and battling Moon was always fun.

He loved watching her, marveling at her instinctive reactions and sound judgment. He loved the way she moved, steady and relaxed, the way her hands gestured as she gave instructions to her Pokemon. He loved how she called out encouragement to them, her voice clear and confident.

Her words of praise and comfort each time a match ended. Her taunts at him, shot teasingly across the battlefield. Her honest admiration and appreciation each time he and his team pulled off an impressive attack or combination. Her eyes, sparkling with delight at the challenge.

He loved battling Moon, not just because he liked battling, but because she never shone brighter than when she was in battle.

His eyes almost ached from the radiance of her. She was wonderful, magnificent, perfect. Right from the start, she had inspired him to train harder, to become stronger, that he might one day defeat her. But now, it was more than just the title. He wanted to be strong so that he could be worthy of her. So that he could stand by her side, as an equal.

And now, here was the chance to prove it. Each time they battled, Moon had won, but Gladion knew that it was not impossible for that to change. Rather than a lack of ability on any side, it was a split-second judgment, or chance, or simply a careless mistake, that decided the outcome for each individual match.

His Pokemon were strong, and their instincts were good, and he was positive that they had a shot at winning. All he needed was a clear opportunity.

Kommo-o’s victory. Weavile’s win. Match to Toxapex. Porygon-Z. Porygon-Z again. Vikavolt. Silvally.

And then Moon sent out her Decidueye.

The two Pokemon clashed, claws ripping, dropping feathers, shrieking and whistling at each other. Silvally was physically stronger, but Decidueye was faster, and had the advantage of flight.

There! Decidueye landed and drew an arrow. Instantly, Gladion whistled. Silvally leapt into action, racing around the stadium, never letting Decidueye get a clear shot. But Decidueye was used to his movement pattern, and in a heartbeat, it fired.

Moon’s eyes widened. “Wait, Deci! It’s a Sub—“

Too late. Silvally pivoted as the Substitute collapsed, slamming into Decidueye with another Multi-Attack. Decidueye screeched in pain as one of his wings flamed, and he crumpled to the ground.

"That's it, Silva! Keep going!" Gladion yelled.

Silvally opened its mouth, readying a Crunch, but at Moon's cries, Decidueye opened his eyes and rolled to dodge. Silvally spun round---

And stumbled across the leaf vines Decidueye had stretched out under him.

"Sucker Punch!"

It was over. Silvally had fainted, and Moon was hugging Decidueye, cheering and laughing. Gladion walked over to his partner and lay a hand on his head. Silvally stirred, moaning slightly.

"You did your best, buddy. Rest now," he said gently, recalling him.

It was so close. They had been so close. For a short-lived moment, he really thought that they had won. The end had arrived in such a rush, leaving him with a slightly stunned numbness. But Decidueye's improvisation using the vines of his hood... Gladion shook his head in wonder.

"That was..."

"Amazing work there!" Moon said excitedly. "You and Silva must have worked really hard. I didn't know you'd taught him Substitute, and to be able to make one and switch it in without us noticing.... Genius!"

"We were still no match for you and Deci," Gladion said wryly. The tension he had felt had disappeared when the battle ended, and disappointment was beginning to sink in.

"That's 'cause Deci's always improving too, aren't you, boy?" She ruffled the leaves on his head, and he trilled at her. She grinned and turned back to Gladion. "But you two were still absolutely awesome. You've become so strong!"

Gazing at the sincere smile on her upturned face, Gladion felt his heart swell with warmth, and the slight bitterness that had engulfed it trickled away.  

"You two, as well. That move with his vines, it was brilliant. Well done, Deci," he said, patting the ghost owl child.

Each time he lost to Moon, it was difficult to remain despaired, because she was always so gracious. Always praising him honestly for his efforts, and for everything he did that she found remarkable.

She really is the perfect Champion, he thought, his lips curving into a smile as he watched her recall Decidueye.

"I'm proud of you, Moon," he said.

Moon tilted her head to one side. "What's up, all of a sudden?" she teased. "No matter how you flatter me, I'm not gonna let you try my throne."

"Oh, for---! I've told you before, I'm not interested in sitting on cold, hard stone!"

"You're just jealous that I have a cool throne and all you got is a lame office chair."  

"You don't like my chair?"

"Nope."

"I'll remember that the next time I catch you spinning in it."

Moon opened her mouth to retaliate, realised she had no good comeback, and pouted. Gladion smirked, and she punched him in the arm, laughing.

"I'm proud of you too, Glad." She reached over and embraced him. "Thanks for the great battle!" Gladion returned the hug, pressing his cheek against hers, enjoying the sweet, familiar scent of lavender wafting from her hair.  

There goes the plan, though. Time to think of something else, I guess.

"Oh, wait," Moon drew back and gazed at him. "So... since I won, do I get to ask you a question then?"

"Uh--- what?" Gladion blinked. "I... suppose?"

Moon grinned. Before he could move, she plunged her hand into his right pocket and drew out the ring case he had secreted there. Gladion's eyes widened, and his jaw dropped.

"Wha…!! I... You... H-How did you know!?” he exclaimed. Moon grinned sheepishly.

"I was in your office last Monday... While you were at the meeting with Wicke, remember? I was playing with Silvally and he knocked over your bag. This spilled out, and he wanted to play fetch with it. And... I opened it. Out of curiosity," she admitted.

"You've known since then? And you didn't say a word?"

"Weeeeelll... I wanted to see how you'd ask." Moon giggled. "That's why, just now, I kind of guessed, when you said you had something to ask me."

"So much for a big surprise," Gladion muttered with a sigh.

"Hey, I really appreciate the effort. I mean, a guy who comes up with a completely new and effective strategy for a battle, and trains hard with it, just to propose? That's the most romantic thing I've ever seen." She snickered as he groaned, burying his face in his hands.

"Just kill me now," he grumbled.

"I'll take you up on that offer one night." Moon waggled her eyebrows at him, chuckling when his face reddened. "But for now..."

She opened the ring case. "We're getting married, right?"

Gladion lifted the ring from its silken nest and slipped it onto her finger. "The answer is yes."

Moon beamed, her eyes shining with love and happiness. He could feel the ridiculously big smile on his own face, threatening to split it. As he pulled her closer, he leaned over to whisper in her ear.

"Just so you know, I'm still going to take the title from you one day."

Moon laughed, and kissed him.

[minblush]

Hi, it's the anon that first sent the ask about the credits and how the explain my lack of connection. I agree with you completely, I feel like this album has been a giant business move where bighit is trying to milk the billboard win as much as possible. It's quite literal even in how they've incorporated the subject into the songs. So they probably rushed wanting to put out something so that they can ride that american zeitgeist high you know. I love bts, like truly (cont->)

Anonymous said:cont- They helped me in a time where I felt really lonely and isolated, I'm always a bit of an outsider just my personality and I felt that they were too (this is early 2015). I loved how they were themselves so honestly in performances and that they incorporated that identity into the music as well. Now they kind of feel like the popular kids if that makes sense. Bragging about how successful they are and or talking about soulmates and finding the one. None of which I can relate to.. -->

Anonymous said:Sorry this got so ranty, but I still love them and for the fans that think that us criticizing this comeback means that we are worse fans or whatever that's just not true. I literally love them with every part of my being and will always support them, I just hope the next releases are a bit different that's all. You're allowed to have expectations and sometimes they aren't met. It's okay.

yeah i felt that way too, honestly i felt it was a bit awkward that they really put the speech in there, it was a big moment but i wish they recorded a skit where they talk about it or what it means to them, instead of putting it in there, it felt kinda hueh? to me, especially followed with mic drop hh... and yeah it was the same for me, and i feel like they shed that outsider and shielding image with the rebranding and this album just confirms that, they said it was a turning point and it just depends whether they’re turning to something you like or you don’t like, tbh i don’t like it, but i love them as people so much that i’m trying to swallow all the marketing stuff, it’s just hard these days... like i know they have to sell themselves but they had a lot of involvement with their music and they talked to us fans all the time through means that you didn’t really have to pay for, but now it’s harder to get past all the pr talk and the distance when they are kinda far away and we are getting so much less free content than before... anyway sorry i went on an unrelated rant too phewph... but yeah, i hope it’s not going to be forever like this, then it’d be so hard to stay a fan for me, their personalities can only do so much when there’s less and less channels to see them through

Anonymous said:i really vibe w that anon who was disappointed bc this is their first comeback bc i'm in the same situation... everything was hyped so much and it seemed like everyone had a great time with wings and i was so excited!!! but now it's just... not rly what i was expecting based on their past works n i feel kinda like the person who arrived to the party late while everyones packing up lmao but. i am Trying To Stay Positive nonetheless :/ thanks for listening to me ramble hhh

wow i’m really sorry you feel that way, honestly wings was the best era for me as a fan cause it had no scandals or injuries in the main duration of it, the music was all great and mostly really personal and you could see that from how the boys talked about it, now it’s kind of... yeah... i hope you can get past it and i hope that the next time will be better if you hang in there ;-;

Anonymous said: with all the new attention from the West. and the teasers came out and the music was kind of promising with the whistle part, although I really didn't like the concept of 'her' and romance, and frankly the clothes in teaser 3&4 were not my fav. Then the music video came out, and I just lost interest in the first 10 secs. I get that they wanted to be more Western, so they danced in a box, and it was so Kookie focused (and no hate cause i really do love him), but the other members should

Anonymous said: should have the chance to shine too. It's probably an unfavourable comment but it feels like kookie & the boys instead of BTS? So I have completely lost interest in this comeback, and it's such a conflicting feeling because I really do love the boys, and I want them to break all kinds of records, but I don't want them to break the records with this album because it's just not them. & now reading about the credits, it's just so heart-breaking. Sorry, I had to rant about my feelings :(

sorry seems like tumblr swallowed some parts of what you were trying to say 3: but i feel you about the mv, i honestly... haven’t even finished watching it, i thought it looked really ugly and busy and the song seemed awful to me, i still only listened to it just once, but i was really happy that i liked most of the other songs on the album so it wasn’t a tragedy lol ;-; i don’t know about the kookie focused stuff, i never got into the discourse about certain members getting less spotlight and stuff, cause i feel it changes every time, with wings hobi had a whole lot of attention on him for example, now jimin had a whole trailer to himself too, so i really think that’s fine, but then again i didn’t finish watching the mv so i can’t say whether it really was excessive or not.... and yeah, i wish they could break the records with a better album, hopefully next time? idek... there is only so much they can do with the power of their fandom, cause lbr the title track isn’t something that you would hear on the radio often anyway

#please guys stop apologizing about sharing your feelings with me #i know it can feel kinda isolating in the fandom sometimes when you don't like something #so i'm glad you can find some place to rant at least here ;; #ask #anon

Yuuram in Novel 7

There’s so many scenes one casually forgets about!

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.1 -OB-VIOUS-LY-

“The other ships in the original fleet will arrive in two or three days. I never thought that my calm eldest brother would send out a quarter of the navy after receiving the message sent by the Flying Skeleton Tribe.” “A quarter? Why?” “TO . FIND . YOU . OB-VIOUS-LY!” Wolfram gritted his teeth while spitting out each syllable one by one and brought his face closer to mine. “Don’t you understand what kind of a situation you're in!? You disappeared from the kingdom without a trace under dangerous circumstances!” “S-sorry.” “You’re hopeless. Now Gunter has turned into Okiku and Conrart…” He stopped speaking for a moment and averted his eyes from mine before changing the topic. He probably thought I wasn't ready yet.

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.1 -More info about Wolf's body temperature-

“….Hmph!” The angelic-looking pretty boy, the spoiled prince, was obviously losing his temper. Even if he didn’t speak, just standing next to him I could feel his temperature rising and his blood starting to boil.

“Yuuri!”

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.1 -Interesting -

The once proud and haughty Wolfram won't ridicule or comeback at Murata to his face. Although I couldn’t be sure, there seemed to be an unspoken, mutual understanding between them. No matter how sharp Murata’s remarks were, the third son would only vent his anger on me. When I secretly observe them, I find that there are times they won't even look each other in the eye.

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.2 - Wolfie-

Wolfram’s mood seemed to improve greatly after hearing that. The first time he met her, he had interrogated me, “Who’s that woman? Who is she to you?” He had questioned the relationship between Flynn and me.

(...)

“... I was going to use you. For my own wishes, I was trying to sell you off.” Lord von Bielefelt’s sword clanged as he drew his sword out from its sheath a few centimeters. With one nod from you, I'll kill this woman immediately. He had said this many times and he was likely serious, but... “Stop, Wolf. I don’t want you to do that. And you too, Flynn... let’s talk about that later.”

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.2 -  I understand his hatred but I can't let him kill-

Seeing that Wolfram had withdrawn his right hand from his sword, I heaved a sigh of relief. I understood his hatred of Flynn, but I couldn’t let him, who hadn’t been there at that time, inflict punishment because of how he felt.

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.3 -Confused Flynn-

“Don’t think about flirting with my fiancé!”

The beautiful 82-year old bishounen was glaring at us with his veins popping out from his forehead.

However, it seems Flynn had been more shocked by the complicated demon relationship rather than the thrown weapon. She was pointing at Wolfram and me with her mouth moving like a fish.

“F-fiance? So…that must mean one of you had given birth…..”

“Aah! I'm begging you please don't ask about that!”

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.3 -Realizing Wolf's old-

“Really, I was wondering why you were only ever interested in older women and lolitas. So I see, you’ve reached the age for marriage while I wasn't looking?”

Talking about age, Wolf was a lot older than I was... I just realized now.

“W-wait, wait, Murata! Actually this is very complicated... Pretend you didn't hear about it.”

“Your Majesty, what’re you talking about? The engagement between His Excellency Wolfram and you is a great event throughout the country!”

“The whole country?!”

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.3 -Reverse proposal-

Suddenly, a force hit me from the left making me bite down painfully on the inside of my cheek. It took me several seconds to realize that I had just been hit. I'd been the one doing the slapping and it had come in at a nice angle and made a loud noise. The other person just looked at me dumbfounded, unable to react for a while. Just like him, I just stared at the person who slapped me in the same way. “Insulting someone’s parents is a despicable act!” “…Wolf.” “Wasn’t that what you told me?” He was looking at me directly with his emerald green eyes which reminded me of a lake. Like I had been silenced with an overly strong mint, the back of my throat and my head hurt a bit.

(...)

“Eh?! But he got angry!”

The pretty boy grabbed at my collar at once.

“You were raging mad. As a result, you couldn't control your feelings of inferiority and love towards me."

“Wh-what about inferiority and love?! And what do you mean by I couldn’t control them?!”

“Even though it was backed by anger, it was a good thing you proposed right away. If not, then you'd be in the middle of a one-sided crush on me right now. And by the way," he put the hand he used to slap me on his hip, cleared his throat and said confidently, “That right now was an old demon tradition called a ‘reverse proposal.'”

(...)

"Shibuya, it was like you confessed to him while you were drunk?” “N-no!”

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.5 -Anissina's teachings-

“Then what about when Wolf gives Yuuri a biiiig hug?”

“That is also, in a way, an expression of love.  There is nothing wrong with that.”

“Then what about when Wolf teases Yuuri and calls him a henachoko?”

“As long as it's henachoko and not henyachin (limp penis) it's all right.”

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.8 -Sleeping Wolf-

After volunteering to be the first lookout, Wolfram has leaned against my shoulder and is now snoring.  His blonde hair is shining copper in the light of the flames.

(...)Still wrapped up tightly in the thick blanket, Murata sits to my right.  Wolfram stirs and shifts his body, pushing his head even more against my shoulder.  It’s okay, you sleep.

(...)“An exile!?”  Wolfram reacted to my voice as he leaned on my shoulder and almost woke up.  However, his drowsiness soon took over and he instantly closed his eyes.  “Whoops… Conrad’s father was exiled?  In other words, he was someone who had committed some atrocious crime?”

(...)I desperately tried to calm the trembling of my body in order to not wake up Wolfram.

(...)“By the time Conrart had returned…”

The weight from my shoulder had lifted.  When I turn my head, there was intelligence and strength shining in Wolfram’s eyes.

My left shoulder suddenly grows cold.(...)

“Oh, did we wake you?”

“Of course.  There’s no way I’d be able to sleep peacefully with all that fearful trembling.  You really are a coward if a story has you scared.”

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.9 -Maryoku-

“That’s right.  Hey Wolf, how did I stop the fire back then that was about to burn that village down?”

Lord von Bielefelt makes a funny face after being suddenly asked this nostalgic question.

“You don’t remember?  Rain.”

(after he put out the fire)

“… You know, it’s like there’s something weird with me.  I seem to have turned into a cool guy.”

“To me it just looks like you pulled yourself together a tiny bit.”

There’s even a bit of unease in Wolfram’s teasing.

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.10 -fighting-

“I’m going.” Nobody dared object to Wolfram’s firm statement.

“If unfortunately I lose, then Gurrier should go up next, don’t let Yuuri get up there.”

“….All right.”

Josak was smiling and nodding in approval, they were completely ignoring my opinion. However, rather than say I was sad that they had ignored me, I was more concerned about what Wolfram had just said. If unfortunately I lose….

(...)

“Wolf!”

I grabbed a sword from the wall. The weapon he had chosen was heavier than it looked, and the hilt was so rough it didn’t look easy to grip.

“Ah? The King himself is handing me a weapon?”

“Don’t joke about it, are you fine with such a heavy weapon?”

“Heavy? I’d purposely chosen a weapon that closely resembles the weapon I carry about.”

Lord von Bielefeld carefully accepted the weapon from me, drew out the silvery sword then unhesitatingly thrust its brown and insignificant sheath against my chest.

“This is for your majesty.”

“What….”

“Don’t mind me, it’s just my personal way of concentrating.”

(...)"(...)And also, can’t you put down that sheath?”

“….no, I’m fine with holding it.”

I wasn’t going to put something Wolfram had told me to hold for him on the ground, I could only watch his silhouette from behind as he left.

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.11 -falling-

Lord Von Bielefeld, who had obtained a complete victory despite the disadvantage of having a smaller physique, was carrying his yet unsheathed sword and heading tiredly yet victoriously towards the resting room….

“Wa….! Wolf!”

He had slipped and fallen face down while heading towards us. Walking on the hardened snowy ground had caused him to slip and fall, banging his waist and right leg hard.

“How come you fell down?! Are you alright?”

Josak and I hurriedly ran out and helped Wolfram up. Poor Wolfram seemed unable to walk on his own and was even gazing blankly into the sky while muttering, “….This…this is so embarrassing…”

“Relax, don’t worry, there’s really nothing to be ashamed of! We’ll pretend that we didn’t see that last scene. Your handsome and dashing appearance must have fatally charmed so many girls….”

“Getting noticed by human females is nothing to be happy about!”

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.11 -Do you know why?-

Wolfram linked his arm round my neck and gazed at me, “Yuuri, listen to me carefully! This is just my personal opinion, but I don’t think we should give up the competition for this type of woman. Just let Josak continue to do his best! What do you think?”

“….this is your way of doing things…”

“That’s right, this is what I think we should do. Anyway you’re really a henachoko, you should listen to what I said.”

I was apologizing to someone in my mind, even if it’s just this once, please allow me to succumb to the evil side who is threatening us. I think I should be apologizing to the gods who represent the spirit of sportsmanship. I linked my own arm round Wolfram’s neck, and drawing him closer to myself, I apologized to him too,

“I’m sorry, I’m always this much of a henachoko, I really am quite embarrassed as well, especially since you managed to gain one point despite the risk of injuries. I’ll probably cause all your efforts to go to waste.”

Wolfram sighed loudly and continued in a dramatic tone, “That’s perfectly correct.”

“This is all because you’re too much of a henachoko. But although I’m perfectly aware of that, I’m still willing to follow you, do you know why that is?”

“I don’t know.”

Lord Von Bielefeld undid a button in front of his chest, his emerald green eyes seemed even brighter against the reflection of the white snow.

“Wrack your brains and think about it before I give up and dump you.”

After apologizing to Josak, I made a ‘stopping temporarily’ request to the judges.

------------------------------------------------------------------ Novel 7. ch.12 -This line is just amazing, so I included it-

Even Wolfram, who was sitting with one leg crossed over the other, was nodding in agreement to this, it seems that he too agreed with Josak’s opinion of ‘killing them all’.

TEN: my angel, the love of my life trying to put into words why it is i love him is difficult ,,, he’s so talented and has such love and adoration for what he does. he works so hard to achieve his dreams, he’s sm’s first thai idol and had to move away from home and learn and brand new language as just a kid and he did all that and it makes me so proud. he’s so smiley and genuinely good and enjoys life. he can have fun with his members and joke around and nearly anything can make him laugh (oh boy his laugh is the most pure thing on the planet tbhhh). did i mention that he’s so damn talented??? like boy his dancing is phenomenal (hit the stage anyone hello i died) he can sing AND rap all in a foreign language. he’s so bright and soft and i love him with my whole heart

YOONGI: ah yoongs my soft rapper. his gummy smile and the way his eyes light up when he’s happy. he is soft spoken but says what’s needed. he comes across as cold but he’s always ready to play around with the other members. he loves them all so much and takes care of them so well. his rapping is ?? so amazing ??? like boy his mixtape fucking destroyed me im still not over it. the fact that he raps about his darkest emotions and doesn’t fall back on sexist or racists stereotypes in his music but tells his own stories. he said that he won’t write about something he doesn’t know so you know all of his lyrics has come from something true. i also love how he messes around, his funny ‘waddle’ run and his dancing, his aegyo, his everything this boy lights up my life

6. What aesthetics would you associate with your favorite group?

my friend sometimes sends me vids of other korean artists and then i’ll listen to it but not on my own

8. What makes you stan a kpop group?

literally anything im into so many groups but i do look for musical quality/type that i personally like i guess

9. Out of the big three, which company do you favor production wise (music video themes, instrumentals, and concepts, not management lol cause we all know how that is)

11. What is a group you think is slept on and needs more love? Here’s your chance to promote them :)

BAP currently like they’re not super small compared to some other groups but i feel they’re still really under appreciated and most people think they’re ‘old news’ etc but they’re amazing i love them so muuuch

Tsukkishima x Reader

8/13

"(Y/N)! I miss you!" A girl from the screen of the laptop waved at (Y/N). (Y/N) chuckled. (Friend) was her childhood best friend, they grew up together until (Y/N) moved to Miyagi on high school, they still keep in contact and update each other though.

"I miss you too (Friend)." She replied. "Maybe I'll go visit you guys soon."

"Well you better visit! It's been a while since you went home! How about trying to stay here for a little longer you know? We never have time to catch up on everything."

"I'll try, I just finished an internship yesterday, after graduating here, I still need to work for more experiences." (Y/N) explained.

(Friend) giggled. "Such a busy girl, (Y/N). Do you even have any time for boys?"

(Y/N) rolled her eyes. "Ha-ha, I'll get one when I get one, for now I need to secure my career."

"Hahaha! Just teasing you," (Friend) laughed. (Y/N) playfully rolled her eyes.

"Of course, that's one of your jobs." (Y/N) retorted.

"(Friend)!!!" Another voice from the screen said.

"Is that Auntie?" (Y/N) laughed as she asked.

"Oopsies, I still have something to do, talk to you later, Love ya, mwah!"

"See you soon,"

The video call ended, (Y/N) then turned off her laptop.

The girl pushed her swivel chair away from the table. She stretched her arms as she spun her chair around. She yawned.

"Can't believe it's 2019 already." (Y/N) said as she stared at her new calendar. Her eyes landed on the stuffed toy beside it. She subconsciously pulled her drawer, there was still her Christmas gift for Kei. She never had a chance to give it to him last time, since she was drunk and all. It was still in her place.

"Kei." She sighed.

"I like you," (Y/N) confessed. Her eyes were closed as she uttered those words to him. Heat rushed to her cheeks as she handed him chocolates. Cliché if cliché, (Y/N) just wanted to get that thing off her chest. She knows she's gonna be rejected anyways, so--

"I like you too, shortcake." He confessed back.

"Huh?" She opened her eyes. Did she hear it right? It echoed into (Y/N)'s mind as her brain processed.

"I like you too, shortcake." "I like you too, shortcake." "I like you too, shortcake." "I like you too, shortcake." "I like you too, shortcake."

(Y/N).exe has stopped.

"Are you that smitten that you don't know how to reply to me?" Tsukkishima smirked as he retorted. "Where's that loud girl I know? You're too quiet."

"W-Well I-I d-didn't exp-pect t-this to hap-ppen." (Y/N) stuttered. She felt that her face was fuming red so she looked away. She expected to hear a 'Sorry.' , 'I like someone else.' , or 'I don't feel the same way.' as an answer. She wasn't seriously expecting an 'I like you too' answer.

"But it did happen. What are you gonna do now?"

(Y/N)'s flashbacks were interrupted as she heard a continuous knock on her door. She stood up from the chair and rushed to open the door.

"Minaki?" She questioned. Her eyes widened when she recognized her old schoolmate. Minaki was standing in front of her, she was wearing a white shirt and skinny jeans as her black hair was tied into a high ponytail. She smiled as she was holding a basket of cookies. Looking at her, (Y/N) didn't felt the hatred for her like before, it was neutral right now. No hate, but no love either.

"(L/N)..." Minaki called out to her. "Can I come in? I baked some cookies for us."

(Y/N) blinked twice as she process what happen. "Sure."

"Don't worry, they're not poisonous." (Y/N) laughed at Minaki's comment. "It's fine, it's fine, come in." She invited the girl to her unit.

"You moved in here? How come I didn't notice at all?" (Y/N) asked as the two of them went on the living room and sat on the couch.

"I moved in last December, you know? I was the one who threw that loud party at night one time."

"Oh!" (Y/N) said as she remembered that time. "So you were the host of that, it was really loud."

"Yeah," Minaki smiled sheepishly as she scratched the back of her head. "I got scolded for that a lot of times. Well, it was wrong to do that anyways."

"No further complaints here, at least you learned your lesson." (Y/N) added. They talked to each other like they were best friends for a long time, but in reality, it was their first talk after the high school drama that the two had.

"About Tsukkishima..." After the small chit chat, Minaki finally opened up that fragile topic.

(Y/N) paused for a moment before replying. "Oh, about that? Congratulations to you, I guess?" She shrugged her shoulders as she relaxed, leaning on the couch as she grabbed a cookie from the basket that Minaki had brought.

"No! You got it all wrong!" Minaki immediately denied and shook her head. (Y/N) raised an eyebrow as she munched on the cookie.

"The thing is..." Minaki paused as she took a deep breath and sighed. "I'm sorry." She finally uttered those words to (Y/N).

"I was really a cringy little bitch on high school, clinging on to Tsukkishima like hell, being disrespectful and all. I caused half your fights with him too before. Now that I grew older, I realized, what a mess I did. Looking back at it, I always shiver at the memories of my past self. Why did my past-self do that before? I don't understand myself either."

(Y/N) smiled. "That's from the past, we can all grow up from our mistakes." She patted Minaki on the back.

"In first year of college, I regretted all those things I did back in high school. When I had known that I'll be in the same university as Tsukkishima and Yamaguchi, I immediately looked for them and apologized, that's when I heard the news that the two of you broke up. Am I, by any chance, the main reason for it too?" Minaki asked.

(Y/N) laughed at her. "No, you're not the main reason for that, things were a lot blurry back then, both of us decided to stop that relationship. I mean, I was the one who gave up since I can't take it anymore, I can't fully understand Kei. Did he ever love me? That's still a mystery to me." (Y/N) said as she stared on the wall, it was full of pictures from high school.

"Tsukkishima loves you, even when his face is like that, his eyes are always different with you." Minaki said, also grabbing a cookie from the basket and chewing it.

"His eyes?" (Y/N) questioned.

"Well, how do I explain it? His eyes, they're always so dull and lifeless, but when he stares at you, it sparks light, it shines like the moon. Maybe I was jealous of that too." Minaki answered as she smiles at (Y/N).

"Maybe." (Y/N) took another cookie.

"Well, even up to now, the way Tsukkishima looks at you is still the same, nothing changed. He still loves you (Y/N). All of us can tell that. You still love him too, don't you?"

(Y/N) was caught off guard with the question. She stared at Minaki for a while before she smiled bitterly. "Yeah, I still love him."

Monday, 7th of January when classes resumed. Minaki was holding a Christmas present in her hand, it was late, really late, but she was planning to give it to someone. Her eyes were keenly observing the people who entered the gate, she was looking for a certain person."

"Tsukkishima." Minaki called out as she found the person she was looking for. Tsukkishima stopped walking as he threw a glance at the girl.

"What?" He raised an eyebrow, as Minaki was struggling to talk. She moved forward the present that she was holding.

"A present?" Tsukkishima asked as he gently grabbed it from her.

"It's not from me, it's from (Y/N). Open it, and I think you should read the letter she included too." Minaki said. Tsukkishima sighed as he opened it in front of her. There, it was a picture of the six of them together, Hinata and Kageyama looks like they were pushing each other, Yamaguchi and Hitoka with normal cute poses, and (Y/N) and Tsukkishima with a joined heart pose. It was their first picture together. Then there was a scarf, probably knitted by (Y/N), she loves crafts. Then there was also a folded paper inside.

Tsukkishima grabbed the paper and slowly unfolded it, reading it silently.

"Yeah, I still love him. But still, I don't think it's possible for a comeback." (Y/N) said.

"Why?" Minaki asked, but (Y/N) didn't answer her.

"Hey Minaki, can you do me a favor? You're in the same university as Kei, right?" (Y/N) asked.

"Yes?" Minaki raised an eyebrow. (Y/N) stood up, went on her work place and pulled something from the drawer, it was the gift that she failed to give Tsukkishima last time. She handed it to Minaki, who confusingly accepted it.

"Can you give that to Tsukkishima? I don't think I can give it to him at all." (Y/N) said as she sat down on the couch again. "I'm confessing everything there..." (Y/N) said as she lifted her feet to the couch and hugged her knees.

"This is probably my last year in Japan, I want it to be livelier so I can bring those memories with me."

"What?"

"I'm going to move back to (Home Country) next year, and probably stay there permanently."

Everything That Upset the Internet This Week

What is the web-o-sphere angry about this week? An accused abuser who expresses no shame, a catfishing-themed Netflix romcom and a fatphobic Lena Dunham sweater. Here’s everything you need to know.

Jian Ghomeshi pens essay for The New York Review of Books

THE STORY: In “Reflections of a Hashtag,” Jian Ghomeshi, the former CBC radio star who was charged with multiple counts of sexual assault and then acquitted in 2016, writes 3,400 words about his experience. At one point, he suggests that he should take credit for the #MeToo movement that took off in October of 2017: “One of my female friends quips that I should get some kind of public recognition as a MeToo pioneer,” he writes. “There are lots of guys more hated than me now. But I was the guy everyone hated first.”

THE REACTION:

OH LOOK IT'S ANOTHER MAN WHOSE BEEN ACCUSED OF SEXUALLY ASSAULTING MULTIPLE WOMEN FINDING REFUGE FROM HIS SO-CALLED "EXILE" IN THE PAGES OF WELL-RESPECTED NATIONAL PUBLICATION https://t.co/vmCWns2wzR

— Ruth Spencer (@ruths) September 14, 2018

Stunned that that New York Review of Books would commision Jian Ghomeshi for a cover story. Ghomeshi faced trial for 4 counts of sexual assault and 20+ women come forward w/ accounts of abuse, forcing a reckoning w/in Canadian music and media bc EVERYONE KNEW HE WAS A CREEP.

— Jessica Hopper (@jesshopp) September 13, 2018

@nybooks What a disappointment to see you might be printing Jian Ghomeshi He is a predator RT if you will boycot @nybooks if this goes forward.

— Amy Millan (@amymillan) September 14, 2018

RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE RAGE: Ugh, gross. All 3,400 words of this piece are drenched in self-pity. This guy really doesn’t seem to get it: the #MeToo pioneers were not the men who have been made accountable for their actions, the #MeToo pioneers are the women who jeopardized everything to bravely share their stories of abuse. (And that’s just one problematic point of many.)

What’s particularly disappointing is that Ghomeshi was given a powerful platform to share his story. NYRB editor Ian Buruma gave an interview with Slate to explain his decision to feature the story, saying: “The exact nature of his behaviour—how much consent was involved—I have no idea, nor is it really my concern. My concern is what happens to somebody who has not been found guilty in any criminal sense but who perhaps deserves social opprobrium, but how long should that last, what form it should take, etc.”

To which the Internet  appropriately responded:

Wanna know how male abusers get their comebacks? By having sexist male editors feel bad for them! @ian_buruma characterizes Ghomeshi's behavior – accusations of sexual assault & punching – as "being a jerk", among other gems

— Jessica Valenti (@JessicaValenti) September 14, 2018

Sierra Burgess Is A Loser called out for problematic plot points

THE STORY: Netflix’s highly anticipated high school romcom, Sierra Burgess Is A Loser, has brought a wave of positive attention to its lead actors, Shannon Purser and Noah Centineo. Some of the plot points of the film, however—such as its catfishing premise, an unconsented kiss, a homophobic joke and a scene in which Sierra pretends to be deaf—have been called out by viewers as problematic. (You can read a round-up of the movie’s off-colour jokes here.)

THE REACTION:

sierra burgess is a loser was terrible written and had transphobic & homophobic jokes, as well as faking being deaf, & an unconsented kiss. the actors are all incredible but the plot sucked and the characters had potential but the writing ruined it.

sierra burgess is a loser disappointed me. transphobic & homophobic jokes, catfishing and faking a disability is suddenly "ok". just because you've got a hard time fitting in doesn't mean being a straight up dick is fine and consent is not a thing anymore. would not recommend

So one of my close friends' deaf brother is in Sierra Burgess

When I learned, I was elated. Finally more deaf actors/representation & ASL inclusion in films

… Only to find out the deaf character was written and used for a terrible joke.

PS- pretending to be deaf is NOT ok.

RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE RAGE: I was hopeful that this seemingly body-positive, heartwarming romance film would shine—especially on the heels of Netflix’s oh-so-charming To All the Boys I Loved Before. Unfortunately, it just didn’t do it for me. Maybe it was the problematic plot points noted above, or maybe, I just couldn’t get over how uncomfortable the concept of catfishing made me.

That said, there are things about the movie that I liked: the female friendship formed between Sierra and Veronica is probably the most moving relationship of the film. And, the movie managed to stay away from the cliche (and toxic) makeover scene that suggests changing your appearance is the key to finding your happily ever after. Sierra Burgess doesn’t change herself, she simply lies and manipulates her love interest—which apparently still lands you the heartthrob in the end.

New LPA sweater reads: “being fat is not beautiful it’s an excuse”

THE STORY: A sweatshirt collab between LPA’s founder Pia Arribo and a series of celebs was released via retailer Revolve this week, with each sweater showcasing a comment made by an Internet troll. The “as said to” quotes from Lena Dunham, Paloma Elsesser, and Cara Delevingne are printed on grey pullovers with the recipient’s Instagram handle written underneath. Elsesser’s quote, “being fat is not beautiful it’s an excuse,” was the item in the collection that gained the most attention.

THE REACTION:

LOLLLLL @REVOLVE y’all are a mess. pic.twitter.com/CrzOkd5oE4

If I see thin women wearing this “being fat is an excuse” shirt from @REVOLVE …we’re gonna fight.

— Meghan Tonjes (@meghantonjes) September 12, 2018

I guess my biggest question for @lenadunham is, how can you say this was a collaboration meant to empower fat women if @REVOLVE doesn't fucking make plus size clothing?

— slayley (@haydigz) September 12, 2018

RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE RAGE: I mean, I can see where this idea came from. (Other sweatshirts included quotes like, “Too Bony To Be Boned,” as reportedly said to Delevingne, and “Horrible Result Of Modern Feminism,” as reportedly said to Dunham.) But even within the context of combatting cyberbulling and reclaiming hateful words, it feels like this collab misses the mark. As many critics on Twitter pointed out, Revolve doesn’t actually carry clothes above a size XL. And so, instead of empowering women with a slogan, they’re really just reinforcing it.

Revolve released a statement to E! News on September 12th, which read: “The prematurely released images featured on Revolve.com was not only included without context of the overall campaign but regrettably featured one of the pieces on a model who’s size was not reflective of the piece’s commentary on body positivity. We at Revolve sincerely apologize to all those involved–particularly Lena, Emily, Cara, Suki and Paloma–our loyal customers, and the community as a whole for this error.”

The collection was canceled, but not before serial apologist Lena Dunham, who was the target of much of the Internet backlash, chimed in with her own hot take:

View this post on Instagram

For months I’ve been working on a collaboration with my friend Pia’s company LPA through parent company @revolve – sweatshirts that highlight quotes from prominent women who have experienced internet trolling & abuse. This is a cause very close to my heart and the proceeds were meant to benefit charities that help young women by empowering them to express themselves through writing and art. Without consulting me or any of the women involved, @revolve presented the sweatshirts on thin white women, never thinking about the fact that difference and individuality is what gets you punished on the Internet, or that lack of diversity in representation is a huge part of the problem (in fact, the problem itself.) As a result, I cannot support this collaboration or lend my name to it in any way. This isn’t meant to shame Pia or the great work she’s done with LPA. I am deeply disappointed in @revolve’s handling of a sensitive topic and a collaboration rooted in reclaiming the words of internet trolls to celebrate the beauty in diversity and bodies and experiences that aren’t the industry norm. *** I’d like to especially extend my love and support to @palomija, whose quote was the first to be promoted and mangled. She’s a hero of mine. Like me, she gave her quote in good faith and shared her vulnerability in order to support arts education and to spread her message of empowerment, and she wasn’t consulted in the marketing. Not an ounce of negativity should be sent her way. *** My only goal on this planet is to empower women through art and dialogue. I’m grateful to every woman who shared a quote and so disappointed that our words were not honored. As a result, I will be making a donation to the charity of every woman’s choice who was wronged with me and I hope that @revolve will join me with a contribution of their own. *** P.S. This Rubens painting makes me happy because it’s about women joining in love, but he didn’t recognize diversity at all- he just loved curvy butts. Problematic fave.

 4am random thoughts cause i cant sleep (tbh its mostly kpop related)

my sleep schedule is all sorts of fucked up w/ going to bed at 6am & waking at 12pm & it doesnt help that its hella hot & i have to wake up cause im sweating everywhere 

i regret not getting my license earlier cause i would just drive to blast the ac

also went to my first club & even tho some moments were pretty sketch i wanna go again but that just might be because i want to drink again

was watching some jbj videos & i really miss...why couldnt they extend their contracts :( at least kenta & sanggyun get to have a permanent duo :)

hotshot also needs a comeback cause jelly was a bop & i need more

you know who else needs a comeback: Pristin w/ kyla too

its been a couple days but its still dumb what edawn hui & pentagon have to go through for dating. “Fans” are too delusional like chill. Shine was such a good song & cause of this shit theyre gonna lose the momentum they were getting :(( 

Bless SM entertainment for releasing Bad Boy Eng Ver. & completing my life. but why did they change “who dat boy” to “who dat is” like it wasnt necessary since it was already english but do you i guess?

Time for sad Wanna One hour cause they had their 1st year anniversary

them turning 1 year old makes me happy yet sad at the same time cause they did so much in that 1 year but also theyre closer to disbandment :(

tbh i didnt even p101 when it was airing cause i thought it was over hyped & theres too many people on it

oh boy was i wrong... i ended up watching it like a month after the show ended & the group was formed... i think it was cause i saw the shape of you performance & the comments said the audience was saying encore to them? anyways i watched it & got invested in it & even tho i knew the results already i still stressed

time out real quick to talk about produce48

tbh im kinda disappointed in how p48 is going. Cause like p101s1 & p101s2 had like legendary stages like bang bang or sorry sorry but this season doesnt really have any at least imo. Like the side to side & im sorry performaces were good but they werent bang bang or shape of you good

the rankings are also kind of messing me up. cause in the first two seasons there were some trainees that pretty much stayed in the top 11 & it was obvious they were gonna be part of the group but this season it keeps fluctuating so much (tbh im not really paying to it that much so i dont really know). i also might be kindof sad that sakura might not get 3rd place cause i find it funny that the past 2 seasons had the center ending up in 3rd place but im just weird like that. also chaeyeon’s ranking is throwing me off cause shes really talented but it might end up in a samuel situation again where they ranked high at the beginning & are falling in ranks now... gaeun also deserves to get in the top12 highkey hoping it doesnt become a nuest situation cause she doesnt really have a group to go back to

alright back to sad wanna one time

anyways altho im sad theyre gonna disband im pretty curious to see what theyll do afterwards

cause ong will probably go into acting but is fantagio planning to put him in an actual idol group or is he gonna be put into an acting group like 5urprise... at this point i think it would be stupid to not put him in an idol group cause i think fantagio would be wasting his dancing if he was in an actor group... like i heard he was an actor trainee & was gonna be in Surprise U but he wanted to be an idol instead so he went on Broduce...he’ll prob end up being like eunwoo or something

daehwi & woojin are pretty much set at BNM w/ having a group w/ MxM & w/ maybe some other trainees...but i think BNM should create another group or unit w/ the trainees that would join them so they wont be overshadowed by the Broduce boys when they officially debut

jaehwan will prob have like an indie/acoustic solo & guanlin has his group set w/ seonho

minhyun & sungwoon get to return to their groups but it all depends on how their company does with promoting them... i dont see much of problem for nu’est since their popularity skyrocketed & pledis might actually care about them for once hopefully they won’t do them dirty... hotshot on the other hand is concerning since it is a small company but it would be stupid of them to not do anything since sungwoon & taehyun got popular from broduce & hojung & timoteo got attention from the unit & unb but its all up in the air

im worried for jihoon & jinyoung cause theyre from small companies & they dont really seem to have any plans for them

its also a toss up for daniel & jisung. they do have their own label(?) but the MMO trainees they were with on the show left the company & jisung has to enlist soon. daniel can have a solo career cause hes pretty much the nation’s it boy rn but i feel like he is better suited to be in a group 

man i really wished that i could go kcon to see them live before they disband but thats not going to happen :(((((((

damn this is longer than i expected oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Introduction of the admins

Hello everyone,

This is a new account all about K-pop, K-dramas, anime and what not. We will post fanfictions written by us, drawings we made, and a lot more. Please keep in mind that none of us is a professional in any way in writing, drawing etc. We started this account purely for fun and to connect and interact with other people in the world who enjoy K-pop, K-dramas, etc. This account is a creative outlet for us and critique and criticism is always welcome. We will try our best to listen to your complaints or tips and change our account/content for the better.

Never be afraid to leave a comment or ask us a question because that is why we started this blog. However, all of the admins do have a personal life and school/university so we will not be able to reply or post content all the time. We hope you understand this and support us anyway.

Another important thing to be addressed is the matter of plagiarism. We will NOT accept any form of plagiarism for the work we post here was made by us and nobody else. It took us hard work and time to create all the stories and other things, so if anyone decides to use (some) of our work, we will take action. If anyone sees content of ours on another blog - or somewhere else on the internet - without our permission, please report this to us and we will take action. Thank you in advance.

That said, we would like to introduce ourselves individually.

Admin Bluebell:

Hey everyone,

I am the admin called Bluebell or also known as the thick thighs enthusiast (I am looking at you Jimin, Jungkook, Jooheon, Wonho, Shownu etc.). My real name is Fleur and like the other admins I am Dutch. I got into K-pop, I think, at the end of 2015. The first group to spark my interest was EXO and since then I was hooked. My bias in EXO went from Chen to Chanyeol to Baekhyun and D.O. If I could listen to D.O. sing every day for the rest of my life I would be a happy girl.

However, after seeing a certain clip of BTS I started stanning them and my life changed forever. (cheesy I know). At first my bias was Taehyung, then Jimin decided to creep in my life and screw up my feelings but since about 7 months I have found my ultimate bias. It is the one and only leader Kim Namjoon. I could rant for nine years about why I love him so much but no one has that much time. I like a lot of other artists as well, such as BTOB (after BTS they are my favourite group), EXO of course, Monsta X, GOT7, Day6, Shinee, Block B, VIXX, NCT, Big Bang, MAMAMOO, EXID, Red Velvet, Twice, f(x), Girls Generation, Dean, Zion. T, Heize, Hoody and the list goes on and on.

I’m not a big fan of K-dramas but I am a big fan of (K)-movies. So if you have any recommendations or just want to talk about a movie with me, you can message us!  I also love reading books and especially if they were written by Neil Gaiman. So if you can always message me when you want to geek out about a book or series.

In terms of what I will be posting on this account, you can mainly expect stories and drawings. I know I am still lacking a lot in both of these departments but I will try my best to create interesting and good content. I apologise if my stories won’t be so long because I do struggle with that, but this will not stop me from trying. Also my drawings aren’t the best ever  but I am confident enough to post them!

I think that was all there is to know about me so I am looking forward to running this blog with my fellow two admins and let’s have fun whilst doing so!

Admin Boa:

I'm the admin with the 'second lead syndrome' so if you want to rant about why the second lead deserves the girl/ how unfair life is you've come to the right place!

My real name is Frédérique but everyone calls me Freddie. I'm 18 years old (20.11.1998) and I currently live in the Netherlands. My nationality is Dutch but I was practically born and raised in England.

My favourite actors include (not in this order bc I literally can't choose a favourite): Choi Tae Joon, Do Ji Han, Seo Kang Joon, Kim Woo Bin, Lee Jong Suk and many many more!!! My favourite actrices are Park Shin Hye and Kim Go Eun.

I also write fanfiction, badly. But I'll upload my fics anyways. They're mostly boy×boy. I don't write for a specific group because there are a lot of groups that I stan and they all deserve love and attention. My favourite boy group always changes because of comebacks lmao, but I'm very loyal to my favourite girl group f(x). My ultimate bias is SEVENTEEN's Mingyu (he's literally the definition of adorkable).

The underground rap scene also has a lot of music I enjoy listening to (for as far as I know it). My favourite Korean program is SMTM. I recently got into Chinese films so if you would like to recommend any, please do so! I love reading good books so a recommendation is never a bad thing!

If you want to know more about me or like talking about any of the above (and more) please don't be shy and leave a message! The more people to talk with the better!

My personal 'K-pop experience'

I got to know K-pop in 2013 (if we don't count PSY's Gangnam Style) when I watched SHINee's Ring Ding Dong. I found it really funny and different from what I usually listened to since it was something I'd never seen before. I started liking it because it made me laugh. In the beginning for me it just looked really stupid (no offense, I love SHINee and I love Ring Ding Dong but I'd never seen something of the like). I really didn't take it serious. It was only when I saw more and different K-pop groups and their concepts that I started to take K-pop seriously as a hobby. When I watched SWING by Super Junior-M with a friend, that's when I began to see K-pop not only as comedic entertainment, but also as a great music genre with crazy good choreographies.

My first ultimate bias was Taehyung from BTS. I decided that when I saw him in I NEED U. He was gorgeous. Although he's still my BTS bias, my ultimate bias changed about a year later to Mingyu and it has stayed that way.

Groups that I stan off the top of my head are: SEVENTEEN, WINNER, NCT, B.A.P, SHINee, BTS, GOT7, KNK, BLOCK B, DAY6, f(x), Brave Girls, TWICE, FIESTAR, etc.

I also like a lot of soloists including: Crush, DEAN, Jay Park, C.Jamm, BeWhy, and many more!

I'm also taking a course of the Korean language. I'm very bad at learning new languages but I'm trying this anyways! (I'm not very advanced and I forget a lot so don't expect much of it lmao)

This is what I like in short. If you'd like to ask about more personal stuff (within certain boundaries) you're always welcome to do so!

I probably won't post often since I have 0 skills, but I'll be here to chat if you'd like!!

Admin Ana:

Hi everyone!

I'm Admin Ana, best described as a procrastinating perfectionist who tends to abuse the passive voice in her writings a lot. I'm 17 years old, born and raised in the Netherlands and an avid listener to Korean music since June 2016. My hobbies include makeup, music, reading, writing and travelling. I started taking writing seriously about five years ago, and it has been one of my hobbies ever since. Besides writing, I also like to draw. Even though I haven't drawn in a really long time, I'd still consider it one of my favourite things to do. If I pick up the pen and muster up the courage, I might share some of my drawings in the future as well.

Among the three of us, I was the last to start taking a liking to Korean music and Korean dramas and in all honesty, I was a little sceptical about the whole thing at first. Despite my doubts, I decided to give both a try and after watching the first few episodes of Kill Me, Heal Me, I fell in love with all that the Korean entertainment industry has to offer. Besides Kill Me, Heal Me, I've also watched and enjoyed dramas such as Goblin, Strong Woman Do Bong Soon, W, Doctors, Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo and Chicago Typewriter. Frankly, even after immersing myself in Korean dramas, it still took quite a while before I started appreciating Korean music. Yet, after being introduced to BTS by my fellow admins, I was won over. Soon DEAN and EXO caught my eye as well, and ever since then, I've been a lost cause. In one year’s time, I’ve got to know a lot of artists. Some of my favourites include BIGBANG, Monsta X, Block B, WINNER and GOT7. I'm also an AOMG enthusiast.

On this blog, I'll be mainly posting my drawings and writings. If I feel like promoting a soloist, group or series, I'll do so as well. If you have a question recommendation or request, feel free to message us! I'd love to chitchat a little. If you want to talk or ask us anything on a more serious note, don't hesitate to message us as well.

Hopefully (yuuri x viktor)

Yuri sighed as he stretched his arms, waiting for his name to be called to the rink to perform. Victor watched from behind, drinking in Yuri's appearance again over and over, for the umpteenth time since he said Yuri was his student. There was more to that story. In truth, when Victor's and Yuri's eyes first met- Victor knew this was someone he wanted to know better, someone to love better then anything he ever had, excluding Makkachin. "Victor," Yuri called, a cute smile on his face that didn't hide the nervousness in his eyes, "...I'll win." "I believe you will, Yuri." Victor returned the smile, but he couldn't control the pounding in his heart. Yurio was glaring at them from the other side of the stadium, looking over the top pissed then he'd usually be. He knew Yuri was scared about going on, but with that thousand yard like stare watching Yuri's every move would only cause more stress on the poor boy. "...Yuri." "W-What is it?" The Japanese male turned back. There was a cold sweat forming on Yuri's cheeks, Victor could see it. The white haired male approached the shorter, wrapping his arms around him. "You can to this, Yuri. I've seen everything and I know for a fact you will win. Now, show them everything you've got, there's going to be a treat if you win...or lose, It'll be my treat." he winked, causing Yuri to slightly blush. "I-I'll make sure to win, Victor!" Yuri gave the best smile he could give, trying his best to cloud over his worry about messing up or losing. Knowing himself, he most likely would probably fall a few times during the whole routine...but that couldn't stop him from trying his best to impress everyone—at the stadium and those who were watching. Minako was in the crowd as well, her cheers were already reaching Yuri's ears, filling him up with a good amount of confidence. Victor patted Yuri's head, placing a light kiss on his right hand quickly before anyone saw. "Dazzle them." Yuri nodded his head and turned towards the ice rink. He pushed himself on to it, listening the myriad of clapping hands and voices for him. Standing in the center, then cheering died down as the sound of the music rose. Yuri's arms swayed in motions as the melody filled his mind, returning himself to the many hours of practice he had before this. He could do it, he was going to win for Victor's sake as a World Champion skater, for his family and friends back home, for his passion, and for his love for his coach. Yuri started moving in graceful motions across the ice, the sound of his skates barely heard from the music's tune. Victor watch, enjoying the movements his student performed and the amazement on the judges' faces. He was performing the many different moves Victor had done in his past career, blending them all together to the music's tune, gracefully and beautifully. Victor had never felt so proud to watch. Yuri had been spending more then the needed hours, both prancing and studying his own moves from past competitions. Victor had watched Yuri practice every jump, every movement of his arms, and every expression he carried. Finally, he stopped in the center of the rink, breathing heavily. He had done it. Everything was perfect, sure their were a few times where his movements were a bit off, but he made every jump, expression, and movement he practiced. "And Yuri makes a powerful comeback with the points of 89.14, leaving him with the score of 290.12! He is now in first place!" His heart jumped at the sound of his score. "He has won!" Yuri looked towards Victor, who smiled brightly with arms wide open for him. Not being able to contain his excitement, Yuri's legs moved toward Victor. His arms opened wide and wrapped around the older male's figure. "I...I did it, Victor!" Yuri looked up, meeting the shining blue eyes that he wished he could stare into forever. "I said you'd win...C'mon, I'll give you that re—" Countless new reports stormed up towards them before they moved, asking Yuri countless questions all at once. Victor pulled Yuri behind him, the same smile he wore whoever answering questions plastered on his face. "Yuri and I have a few things to take care of, please excuse us. We will answer everything tomorrow. Let's go, Yuri, we have to hurry." In truth, Victor only wanted Yuri for himself after this. Even if he lost, Victor still would've give him the gift he planned. Yuri's birthday was coming up and Victor planned to confess everything he felt. The Russian pulled the younger Japanese skater to their hotel room. Yuri stumbled in, still in his skates, and felt to the floor. Victor closed the door. The sound of it locking clicked and Yuri felt his feet being lifted up. His skates were removed carefully with his socks, his bare feet being touched gently by Victor's lips. Yuri blushed, "V-V-V-Victor!"
