Sean 😊
i have 3 of these. will say sean is my favorite. thank you. all this is under a cut bc i kind of went lengthy. 💕💙
he died in the army. (self explanatory)😥😥
he and emma reunite in the future bonus: emma is divorced or separated and working toward a divorce, spemma as amicable exes and they naturally pick up from a more mature pov/grown a lot separately and grow more fond between their history and mutual feelings and such and are in much better places in their life. best case scenario. perhaps sean attends janny's wedding and is the best man, emma is naturally manny's maid of honor (manny was emma's) and spinner got ordained bc jay can't marry himself who also was ordained and even tho spinner/manny were amicable exes as well and despite spemma not working out all remained friendly with little animosity </sorry habitual tangent the happy ending. down the road even emma and sean move in together and start their new lease make up for lost time could have a semiopen ended ending happy tho. but implied of happy days to come. this is my favorite end!
i do have a stretch one, this is a crack theory hear me out on!!
so basically he falls in love with army!anya. ok i don't have a lot of knowledge about army life or whatever but this is my crack theory and i have limited knowledge based on things I've heard and stuff so yeah.
and to make it a little more interesting, up the ante - he is her boss its kind of frowned upon or forbidden. when for starters for instance she's new girl on the block and freshmeet they don't get on so well. she is newbie. she's also an attractive girl a little girlie and the other girls in their group don't jive so well. she has 1 or 2 people in the group she's friendly enough with. sean initially doesn't like her at all. anya is no push over and isn't giving up and is determined to get better. sean is constantly at every turn making an example out of her of what not to do, she's embarrassed but that only drives her to work harder and strive for perfection or excellence. she doesn't wanna imress him, she's not a fan either. so the feeling is pretty mutual.
she even thought if she was in danger, he'd leave her behind, or not help her if she needs it or if her life depended on it. he always caught her doing things wrong, he'll always call her out on it. he's pretty cactus like and she's like a baby kitten, or a balloon that his pickly thorns pop. she's lost her temper got demerits (or strikes which lead to meetings and write ups) seems like he has it out for her and his mission is for her to be sad. he once made her cry bc she confronted him for this laundry list of things and he brushed her off and told her she's a coward and she should go home that she's hopeless. she did consider that, but she didn't want to disappoint herself or her parents.
pre anya he didn't have a hard time learning and being accoustome to habits and routine so with sean moving up the ranks sean is a lil closed off, bossy, moody, and demanding and anya initially hates him!
he's always catching her doing the wrong thing and making her do the work, but it's cause he believes in her. he's also like it or not attracted to her even though they have little in common.
so one night the rest of their army colleagues are out at a bar in the city to cut loose and have a good time. it had been a hard week for everyone including anya. they have some drinks and get to talking. sean surprises her when he defends her honor at the bar and decks the guy for trying to do something (use your imagination)
or possibly anya has a ex out wherever they're stationed the romance they had turned sour or ended somehow unrelated and stuff and he grabbed anya by the arm and demanded to take his hands off her in so many words or to leave her alone, she doesn't want to talk. sean read the situation pretty well. did i mention he's built?
the guy gets tough, but sean's tougher. so he becomes more persistent, insults sean and he comes over and sucker punches him bc she wasn't listening and neither was he when sean initially walked over to stick up for her (not like she needed his help considering) and wham! he's on the floor and then sean tells her to run and he takes her by the hand on the count of 3 they flee to another place closer to base like a park after dark before curfew so they have some time to sober up, grab a bite to eat before they get back to base.
he finds out that for anya and sean, it's a small world. they're both from toronto and attended the same school at different points like a few years apart (perhaps she was a middle schooler when he was in school at dcs or he was in wasaga that period of time but eventually got ged after his short stint in jail and we know the rest!) and any told her story and he was so impressed how she was able to pick her self up. he asked if she knew his mentor mr. simpson and she filled him in a bit on him. sean and Simpson still talk but at that point it been a few months with their busy lives and all but he admired that she didn't give up on herself and when things got tough, like sean always did and how his temper often got him into trouble. she heard stories his reputation for that stuff. she admitted she was afraid of him when she made the connection with first impressions. she proved him wrong, and is quick to call his bluff. they are team mates without sports and dating would be wrong on a lot of levels but the trust, attraction, and stuff.
he knows he can't give her preferential treatment, he wont hold her hand and he wont go easy on her, and no one was the wiser, sometimes they'd be able to get away and fool around and spend nights away on leaves or vacation far away, and when they're still working or on the clock or whatever behind closed doors they can be what they want and then in the world its like they are well behaved and model soldiers and so on. they get by. he knows he can't like be public with her, no kissing/pda, no sex, not too much alone time, getting caught can't emphasis CANNOT happen but they can talk when they can,he'll always help her and maybe he wont be so mean to her and realize he was once new and trained her like owen did more to grow into and hone skills she'll use in the future regardless! he wrote her recommendation letters for a college so she can get accepted to a university to study some topic she's interested in idk what anya would study so open ended!!
for a time they had a secret romance, no one ever found out about and then they bode time until it was free, coast was clear. for the first 2 years of their relationship it was a double life tho no one knew and they kept it that way but they hated it too because they'd really fallen deep for one another no matter how hard they tried to fight it/deny it and were mutually invested by then. they had goals, future plans and were supportive but they always promised they'd get through it together whatever it took. (ha see what i did there!) they taught each other a lot in their time once they got over the ihateyoustage and critical beginning. from the night at the bar she saw him in a new life. she'd judged him so quickly. they worked well as a team and everyone was proud of anya too. she was thriving in her new life. she was also happy. happier than she had ever been, she had true companionship and comradery. she made a lot of friends and got to try many different jobs. she never gave up. came out of her shell.
things improved obvi between sean/anya and the rest of her career seemed to flourish and promotions and opportunities came pouring in and eventually she had to pick and choose what to pursue and what to choose and sean would back her 100% in any way he can.
and much later down the line the chips fell where they did and they were able to be in a relationship because he was no longer her boss at that point and it wasn't such a risk and they moved in together and on a family weekend anya introduced her to her parents. mama approved of her. they were free to be who ever they wanted to be. I'm a sucker for love. I'm a sucker for happy endings but yeah. that's the sean/anya crack fanon/heancanon! haha idk props to rachel who is on here as @reggiephantom who idk maybe 2 years ago and i went back and forth talking about this headcanon/story idea.
thanks for the ask/message!💌

hi !! can i ask you a question about giffing? im kinda new to this and i really can't find any answers to my situation.
i have a 240-frame gif (i know 200 is already too much but im just messing around) and i can see every frame on the video timeline but when i change it to frame animation it just doesn't go above 150, so i can't delete unwanted frames or change the speed because when i put it back to video timeline those other frames are just.. gone. every faq and forum i've seen say ps' frame limit is 500. is this normal or am i making some kind of newbie mistake? ty for your time !!
henlooo <3 i’m happy i was approachable even tho i have been mia from the blog <3
haha don’t worry about 240 frames,, it happens !! keeping experimenting! that’s how u learn new things!
The problem you’re facing is weird. When your file opens up, is it visible as a video timeline or a frame animation?
do u mind telling me what version of ps you are using and which giffing method you’re using ? (png, gif to frames or video to frames mov)
i tried to see if my ps was having the same glitch my opening a 293 frame clip too. i tried going back from video timeline to frames,, it doesn't lose any frames. i think your ps i having a glitch. if you'd like, i can provide u with a new cracked version of latest ps.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i’m not sure if i can help u with that 150 frame problem but i can provide you with an alternative solution to do edit frame speed and edit the clip. OR if u can send me a screenshot of what your ps screen looks like,, maybe i can be more of help!
you can try this instead:
If you’re going for “video to layers” then as u select your range , you’ll get an option “Make Frame Animation”. Make sure it’s selected.
Your clip needs to open up in frames at first and then you change your frames per second speed and then convert it to video timeline. and after that, to deleted unwanted frames, you can move your cursor on the video timeline and snip and delete according to you! (i would suggest deleting unwanted parts thru video rather than in frames)
you can refer to this tutorial of mine and if anything, pls don't hesitate to reach me ! my dms are open too !

My favorite thing ever is when my newer followers find out that I write dark stuff
Like yes hello my children.
Gore, death, yandere, dub/non-con, tearing people to shreds/etc... Is definitely welcome here
So are hand holding, long cuddle sessions, wing preening, and silly love confessions
Depends on the day of the week, honestly.

Rating the AEG Redesigns
It’s late, I’m bored, and I have the theme song stuck in my head. Let’s go!
Tumblr media
Lowkey, he looks like the Thomas costume my aunt made me when I was five. A cardboard box that vaguely resembles Thomas. His bunker is lighter than the rest of him for some reason? I assumed it was an accident when they were making the promos, but no? It’s just like that? I like the little gap in his tooth tho. 4/10.
Tumblr media
A precious baby boy. Probably a worrier, but that makes him more endearing to me. 10/10
Tumblr media
I look at this and I see the Take Along toy I had as a kid, right down to the missing set of wheels on the tender. This is a mellowed out Gordon who’s ready to teach some kids and be a dad. 7/10
Tumblr media
If Gordon is Take Along, this James is the Lionel model. He strikes me as a humble bragger. Brenner era James would loudly proclaim how great he is. This James is more subtle about it. 6/10
Tumblr media
Another baby boy. Not as precious as Percy, but he’d still worm his way into your heart. But honestly, if he fell asleep around me, I’d use his big forehead as a whiteboard. 8/10
Tumblr media
I feel like this Cranky is snarky as hell. If you screw up around him, he’s cracking jokes until the cows come home. 9/10
Tumblr media
Awful. She looks like if someone broke their Cranky toy and put it on a truck to pretend it was a new character. Completely unneeded, they should have just used Harvey or made a new character. 1/10
Tumblr media
An energetic baby. If you rile her up, she’s not settling down until she’s ready. Her smokebox is a little too long but that aside, she might be my favorite. 10/10
Tumblr media
Fuck it, bonus newbie character.
If it wasn’t for the electricity, I honestly would have mistaken her for a streamlined steam engine. If Nia’s energetic, Kana is an eternal sugar high. If she crashes, she crashes hella hard. 7/10

bitchin’ || pt. 9 (M)
Tumblr media
↳ PART OF MY REWIND SERIES
The 80s were a time of choices. Which perm was right for you? What color neon would you wear next? None of these choices, however, were more questionable than a certain deal you made with Jeon Jungkook.
pairing: fratboy!jungkook x reader
word count: 4.7k
genre: 1980s au, eventual smut, e2l
warnings: fanservice. that's it. that’s the tweet.
A/N: This fic was inspired by To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before. Thank you to @junqkook for letting me use her likeness!

PART NINE
"Okay, just sign your name here, and she'll come to get you when she's ready." The cheery girl at the front desk told you.
You offered her a polite smile, walking over to the sit in the waiting room.
You always disliked these chairs. We were willing to bet money that these chairs have sat in this very room since your university first opened, worn out, uncomfortable, and outdated. Sure, maybe you had been in a bit of a sour mood lately – what with your fake ex-boyfriend dirty dicking you and all – but as you sat there, metal rod poking your spin, you couldn't help but frown.
As you sat there contemplating your school's renovation budget, you hardly noticed the sound of another student walking in and over to the front desk, your stomach churning as you put a face to those loose curls.
"Hey, stranger! What are you doing here?" Kiri's white teeth blinded you, walking over to you once her business with the receptionist was done.
You could feel one of your eyebrows twitch in irritation, swallowing down your scoff as she sat next to you.
"Trying to schedule my class next semester." You responded uninterestedly, contemplating whether or not the suspension from decking Kiri in the face would be worth it.
"Oh, just picking up a termination form. One of our newbies wants to pull out of Kappa Alpha Tau."
Shocker...
"Hey, so sorry to hear things with Jungkook and you didn't work out, by the way." Kiri flashed you a sympathetic look.
An audible breath left your lips, disbelief no doubt visible on your every feature. Did Kiri seriously think you didn't know it was her who home wrecked? Or was she just that much of a raging bitch?
"If you ever need someone to, like, talk to, just know that I'm here. I totally know what you're going through."
Your hands found themselves curling into tight balls in an attempt to keep your hands from shaking. Kiri looked as cool as a cucumber in front of you, perfectly composed, not a single hair out of place.
Then it hit you.
Of course. It all made perfect sense now.
From the moment she came up to you at your event offering her condolences, she had been trying to drive you off from Jungkook. She was planting seeds of doubt about their break up and his character. Manipulation and intimidation were her cards, and she played them well.
Fine. If the rules were being bent, you might as well disregard them altogether. You relaxed your hands.
"Oh, no worries. It's all good, I mean, it's not like we were actually dating." You shrugged.
Rule #2: No one can know the truth.
"What?" Kiri blinked, her smile faltering for just a moment.
You edged closer to her, cocking your head in mock surprise.
"Oh... did you not know that? That our entire relationship was contractual?"
"What are you talking about?" Her full brows furrowing.
You let out a sigh, "Yeah, so, basically, Jungkook would get his frat to fund my event if I helped make you jealous so that you'd come crawling back to him."
The polite mask that Kiri had plastered on finally cracked, her next words clipped and curt.
"What the hell is your damage, Y/N? Do you think I'm some sort of idiot how'd fall for that?"
"Good grief, did Jungkook not tell you? Weird, I feel like that's something he'd need to tell his girlfriend." You puffed out your bottom lip in mock sympathy.
Whatever resolve Kiri had built up crumbled at the way you held her stare, a note of honesty in your voice that she couldn't shake.
"I'm..." She cleared her throat, turning her nose up. "We're not actually back together yet."
"No? Really? Hmm..."
The call of your name crossed the room, and the two of you turned to look at the receptionist, ushering you over with the news that your counselor was ready for you.
You turned to Kiri with a smile, "Guess he didn't want you back as so much as he just wanted back in your pants."
Kiri looked utterly stunned, eyes wide as you stood from your seat, for once, without a clue as to what to say.
"See ya around, Kiri. Let's do lunch sometime. Oh and, happy holidays!" You fluttered your fingers at her, slipping away from her with a smugness you couldn't be assed to hide.
┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
"Wait... he called you?!" Taehyung laughed, eyes wide.
Yara nodded, scouring through the shelves, a specific book in mind. Belinda Carlisle was playing softly overhead and Yara found herself humming along.
As the holidays rolled around and everyone found themselves back in their hometowns, Yara was surprised to find Jungkook's frat brother browsing through the jam aisle in her local supermarket. As luck would have it, Jungkook's genetically blessed frat brother was from her hometown, the two somehow never crossing paths until now.
What started as a polite catchup over coffee, quickly turned into an everyday thing, the two of them realizing they had more in common than friend drama.
"He did!" Yara enthused. "He left a voicemail apologizing and rambled about how he wanted Y/N's address so he could go apologize, blah, blah, blah."
"That idiot." Taehyung rolled his eyes. He watched as she let out a noise of excitement, looking over her shoulder to announce that she had found the book she was in search of. He grinned in response.
"Anyway, I didn't call back. Because that's exactly how she wants to spend Christmas morning, with that jockstrap knocking at her door, right?"
Taehyung snorted, bringing the straw of his drink to his mouth.
"Miriam is gonna have your head on a stick Lord of the Flies style if she catches you with that drink in her library." Yara warned, to which Taehyung dismissed with a wave of a hand.
Yara was a funny girl; he was pleasantly surprised to bump into her during winter break. He could tell something was off when they first ran into each other, so he invited her out to grab some coffee. It was over a warm cup of coffee – with the most absurd amount of sugar he had ever seen – that she finally shared with him all that had been weighing on her mind lately.
Sure there was the Jungkook and Y/N stuff. Yara was beyond homicidal. Taehyung was grateful for winter break as he was positive she would have rung out Jungkook's neck had she seen him after what had happened. Taehyung himself was astounded to find out what exactly was true nature of the two's relationship, curtesy of Yara, of course. Even if it was fake, however, he knew Jungkook enough to know that the happiness he gave off once Y/N entered his life wasn't.
But more than that, the petite girl was worried about a boy, an irritating one who Taehyung happened to be frat brothers with. Eunwoo had approached her immediately after Kiri left him, spewing some excuse about only dating Kiri because he couldn't get Yara out of his mind.
It was bullshit if you asked Taehyung. But he hadn't the heart to tell Yara that, especially with the way she looked so torn up about it – unsure of how to respond to Eunwoo. He wasn't entirely sure what their relationship was like, but he figured it must have meant enough to her to have her feeling this conflicted.
So he did his best to cheer her up, inviting her for lunch and driving her to their local library, which he had come to find out was her favorite place growing up. They spent many afternoons sprawled out on the couches in the now abandoned children's section of the library... or at least until the crabby librarian yelled at them to leave.
If Taehyung was honest, he didn't care much for literature – he was a math guy – but the way Yara would shove a book into his chest with wide eyes and an 'if you don't read this and tell me your thoughts on it, I'll literally die,' seemed reason enough to keep showing up day after day.
"Have you talked to her about Eunwoo, yet?"
Yara flinched at the blond man's words.
"Why don't we ever talk about normal people stuff? Like the weather, or what sports team played last night."
"Yara..."
"Oooh!" She exclaimed suddenly, "I know, let's talk about President Reagan. Did you hear his speech about tearing down the wall in Germany? Crazy stuff–"
"Dude, why are you so scared to tell her about Eunwoo? You told me." Taehyung interrupted, quirking up a brow. Yara held his eyes for a moment before sighing.
"I just don't want to bring it up to Y/N, you know? She has enough going on..."
"So? She's your best friend. She'll want to help."
"Exactly! She's going to want to comfort me and make me feel better – which will just make me feel worse." Yara groaned, leaning back against the bookshelf.
"I'm... not following." The frat boy admitted.
Surely girls aren't usually this hard to understand.
"Look, I know you'd only known me for a little while, but let me pencil you in. I have a reputation, okay? Yara doesn't get hung up on some dumb boy." Yara wagged her finger at him.
"Does Yara usually talk about herself in the third person?" Taehyung chuckled.
"Yara," she continued, paying the boy no mind, "is an independent woman who likes one night stands and sex without strings. She doesn't like clingy boys getting into her head and confusing her."
Taehyung nodded, "So basically, Yara is scared of catching feelings."
"Shh! Don't tell Yara about what Yara doesn't want to hear." She turned her nose up at him, pushing herself back off the stand to march away from him. Taehyung reached for her arm without hesitation, stopping her departure with a sigh.
"Look, I don't mean to be on your ass about this, but clearly, you feel something for this kid. Otherwise, you wouldn't be spending all your time pining over him."
Taehyung immediately wished he could take back those words as an offended look fell across the petite girl's face, her hands falling onto her hips, clearly displeased.
"Pining? You think I'm pining over Eunwoo?"
Taehyung shifted uncomfortably, unsure how to navigate this situation. As much as he liked Yara, she did spark a healthy dose of fear into him.
"Well... I mean... you're spending your whole break with me just because I can give you a ride to the library so you can read sad romance novels and cry."
"First of all," Yara began, "I happen to enjoy your company. You're a good listener and, frankly, very nice to look at."
Surprise fell over Taehyung, "Nice to look at?"
"Oh, don't act like you don't know." She waved him off, "Secondly, I've never cried. I've let out a sniffle at most."
"Fine, so you're not pining over him. Just get back together with him." He responded.
"I can't."
Taehyung frowned, "Then turn him down."
"I can't do that either." She frowned right back.
"Dude."
"I'm scared, okay!" She whined, thumping a foot against the library's carpeted floor.
"Of what? What's holding you back from going back to Eunwoo?"
"...He told me he loves me."
"And?"
"And I don't even know what that means!" Yara threw her hands up in exasperation, the sleeve of her swear falling down her forearms. "I don't know how to love him back or be a good girlfriend – which I know is what he wants from me."
"Yara, I hope you don't feel like you don't owe Eunwoo anything. Because you don't." Taehyung grew serious, which only caused the torn girl to pout.
"I know, I just... I mean, I don't hate him. But it's scary. Whenever I'm dating someone, I get all up in my head like... Am I supposed to be this someone's person? Possibly forever? What the fuck!"
"No, I get it. It's a lot of pressure." He shrugged powerlessly.
"Exactly! I don't want to have to try and love someone. I want to do it. Like... not to sound like a sappy idiot but sometimes I think about all those stories I read," she gestured towards the books beside her, "about feeling a spark when you kiss your person and just... I dunno. Would be fucking nice, instead of this complicated bullshit."
Yara was far from a hopeless romantic. As much as she loved to read about romance, she had an innate urge to flee the moment the word love came around. Still, she could appreciate the idea of it.
"So then forget about that stuff. Forget about labels and expectations. Just be with whoever you want to be with. Have fun, worry about the heavy shit later."
Taehyung had a very soothing effect whenever he spoke. His tone was low and lovely, and despite the way Yara's head was still running a mile a minute, she appreciated the boy's docile nature. Certainly made her feel a whole lot less anxious.
"I want to. That's how this whole thing with Eunwoo started, ya know?" She admitted, crossing her arms over her chest. "But all men are the same. They say they're fine with keeping it casual, but they always end up falling for me, which, duh, understandable..."
The blond boy let out an airy snicker, a direct challenge to Yara's words.
"Something funny, Tae?" She pressed.
"C'mon, that's not true." He rolled his eyes breezily.
"Oh, yeah? Tell that to my four ex-partners who are all still in love with me."
"Maybe you just haven't met the one. You know... your knight-in-no-strings-attached-armor."
"I'm telling you, no such guy exists." Yara emphasized with a poke into Taehyung chest.
He grabbed the jabby finger reflexively, his long fingers wrapping around the small digit, setting his drink on the nearest shelf.
"Yara."
"Seriously, I've done my research! You're looking at a hot commodity, buddy. I may be a raging homebody, but I am very efficient—"
Suddenly, the petite was trapped against the bookshelf with Taehyung hovering over her, a large hand on either side of her head.
"Please stop talking."
Yara's cheeks flushed in surprise as she met the handsome boy's warm eyes, growing even hotter as he leaned over and pressed his mouth against hers.
He smelled distinctly of vanilla, and it sent her stomach fluttering, reeling in the way he gripped her waist, pulling him into her. She would've lost herself in the feeling of his soft lips moving against hers if it weren't for a cough ringing out from somewhere in the library.
Yara broke the kiss short, ears red as she brought her hands to wrap around her torso defensively, trying her hardest to ignore the way her heart was pounding against her chest as if trying to escape.
"You kissed me!" She scoffed, trying her hardest to seem unaffected. Taehyung shrugged.
"You kissed me back."
Oh god, this was bad. She felt all light and giddy tucked away in this corner of the library, the gorgeous tall man still close in proximity, looking at her through a smirk.
"Yes, well... I'm a very go with the flow kind of gal." She defended, brows furrowed adorably.
"Relax, Yara."
"Well, what the hell was that precisely?! Do you just make out with all your library buddies? Is there some sort of library buddy étiquette I'm not aware of?"
"I kissed you because I wanted to. Kissing is fun." He shrugged. "Some guys just want that, you know."
Son of a bitch.
"You got balls, Goldilocks. Understood. Message received, loud and clear." Yara acknowledged through narrowed eyes.
"Happy I could help, bookworm."
A corner of her mouth turned upwards, admittedly amused.
"Just so we're on the same page... you're not in love with me? You just smooched me for fun?" She looked at him skeptically.
"Sorry you had to find out this way." Taehyung joked, earning him an eye roll.
"And you don't have some ex-lover you need to make jealous?"
At those words, the frat boy laughed heartily, head shaking a firm no.
"Wicked."
Yara hopped onto the balls of her feet, hoping to catch the blond's kiss once more when her mouth met the hardcover of a book instead. She sank back down with an annoyed huff; Taehyung had pulled a book from the nearest self in reach, holding it up between them to pause the eager girl's ministrations.
Poking his head out from behind the book cheekily, he flashed her a lopsided grin.
"Easy there, tiger. What about Eunwoo?"
Yara held his eyes for a moment, wondering how she hadn't noticed what a pretty brown they were until now. She let out an appreciative hum.
"What about him?" She raised an eyebrow, a mischievous smirk on her lips that had Taehyung leaning back over to meet it with one of his own.
┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
"Thanks for agreeing to meet with me." You greeted him with a cautious smile as he slipped into the chair across from you.
You were nervous, to say the least, watching the tall man shift in his seat, trying to grow comfortable despite the uncomfortable circumstances.
"This place is disorienting." Erik scanned the mall cafeteria before flashing you a charming smile. "Thought you'd get tired of waiting and head back home. I apologize for my tardiness."
"No worries. I still don't know my way around at the mall, and I've been home for weeks." You grinned back.
A pleasant beat of silence passed between the two ex-lovers, each taking a moment to consider the other. Erik looked a lot older than he did in high school; he had on a brand new pair of glasses that suited him far better than the ones you remembered did. His hair was combed and styled smartly so that they would stay out of his eyes. A stark contrast from the long-haired boy you had come to know these past few months.
Dammit. Your eyes fell onto the red table between you two, cheeks growing warm as you realized your thoughts had drifted back to Jungkook, even with your ex-fiance sitting across from you.
Erik's voice rang out, "I'll be honest. I wasn't expecting you to call me."
"I wasn't expecting me to either." You confessed, your hands intertwining on the tabletop.
Really, you didn't have much reason to be nervous. I mean, it was Erik. Despite the end of your relationship, there was no bad blood between you two. It wasn't the first time seeing him since the breakup either... maybe it was why you had called him that had you so on edge.
You weren't sure exactly what you wanted from Erik. Company? A distraction? Maybe what you were asking of him was unfair, but as he placed a hand over yours reassuringly, you found the wall you had set up crumbling down.
"I can help you, but you need to talk to me, Y/N. If I could read minds, I would be a much richer man." His brown eyes rolled dramatically.
You chuckled. Same dry wit you remembered.
"I met someone."
"Is that what you wanted to tell me? Y/N, you're allowed to date other people. I understand your hesitation, but really, it is time you moved on–"
You let out a scoff, yanking your hand away from the now laughing man. You flashed him a feigned look of irritation, silently grateful for the change of pace in conversation, finding it much easier to talk when things weren't so tense.
"God, you are still just as full of yourself as I remembered." You teased.
Erik shrugged, "Not to sound like a cocky asshole, but is it not warranted?"
You let that question run through your mind. You suppose if anyone had reason to have a big head, it would be Erik. Intelligent, handsome, hard-working– everything a mother would want their daughter to have.
"It is. You've always been perfect..." You mused, a hint of sadness in your tone that Erik picked up quickly.
And all at once, his entire demeanor changed, a serious expression settling behind those frames of his.
"Tell me about him." He instructed calmly.
And so you did— the beginning, the end, and all the beautiful bits in between. You told him about a boy that challenged you in ways you never imagined– a boy who made you feel like the sun. You spoke of every stupid conversation you once thought of as meaningless but now weighed heavily on your heart and mind.
You were mad at him, of course. There was a reason you had been ignoring his calls and ordered Yara to keep him in the dark of your whereabouts, after all. But the more you talked about him, the more you lit up. Erik noticed it too. How could he not? It was that very way you spoke with an uncontainable passion that made him fall in love with you in the first place.
He watched with utmost concentration for the vocal inflections of your words, the slight movement of your brows that always seemed to speak your mind before you did.
It was clear to him that this boy wasn't just a boy. He could hear in the choice of words you used, words that were static and void of variables. But there were certain words you seemed to dance around he realized as you came to the end of the story... words that were evident to all but you.
"So... Analysis?" You breathed out, chest deflating as you took in Erik's frown.
"Above all... did you find out if he used protection? I don't want to presume anything about... was her name Kiri?" Erik paused, continuing once you nodded back at him, "but your health should be your number one concern."
"I had a friend of his ask him on my behalf. He says he used protection... I went ahead and got tested anyway, though, and I'm all good thankfully." You told him.
Whether or not Jungkook had passed along some sort of STI was heavy on your mind the next morning after you kicked him out. Thankfully, Taehyung was more than happy to get the answer you need but were still too damn pissed off to seek out yourself.
"Good." Erik sunk back into his seat, a hand coming up to run through his hair as he considered his next words. You suppose you were grateful to be able to talk to Erik like this still. Sure, he was blunt and sometimes stared at you like you were some case-study, but he didn't bat an eye of judgment at the news of the contract, for which you were grateful. He had known you for too long to find it peculiar that you'd pretend to be someone's girlfriend in exchange for furthering and fulfilling your passion project.
If anything, that was precisely in line with your character. He liked to think he instilled some of those traits into you.
"Well, frankly, I am sorry to hear this happened to you. You're a great girl; you deserve better than that."
Your neck warmed at Erik's words, slightly taken aback.
"Oh, um... thanks, that means a lot coming from you." You expressed your gratitude shyly.
Erik nodded back at you, "Seriously. It was very shitty of him to string you along for so long and for sleeping with Kiri despite knowing how you felt."
"Oh."
"Oh?" He frowned, not expecting your response.
You shifted in your seat uncomfortably, pausing to watch a woman with a stroller walk past your table.
"Well..." you cleared your throat, "I'm not actually sure that he knows that I, um, like him... like that."
God, this was mortifying. The first time you had admitted you liked Jungkook and it was to your ex-fiancé? Sometimes you swear you were the protagonist in a mediocre rom-com film and no one was telling you.
Erik paused, "I see. And does he know now?"
"...No."
"I see." He sat up, fingers tapping against the table in interest. He quirked up a brow at you. "Perhaps it wasn't just him who was dishonest."
You scrunched your nose at him, not liking what you were hearing. It wasn't anything that hadn't already kept you up, tossing and turning in bed at 2 AM, of course. You had a feeling this was where this conversation would lead to. Erik, as genius as he was, was fairly predictable in this sense. Rational, dependable... nothing like the spontaneous boy you had fallen for.
"So? Even if he knew, what would that change? He slept with her..." You grumbled stubbornly.
"And maybe he wouldn't have if he had known."
You crossed your arms, "You don't know that."
"You're right. I don't. I don't even know the guy. But you do." He continued, offering you a suggestive look.
Huh. Did you think that would have stopped Jungkook? And even so, would that fact alone be enough to get you to forgive him?
"I... I don't know." Was your conclusion, pulling a hum from Erik.
"Guess the only way to know would be to discuss it with the meathead himself."
"I just... I don't want to get my heart broken again. I, quite literally, didn't sign up for this." You placed your face into your hands, hating how rational Erik had to be.
"My guess? He didn't either. It seems as if you both got more than you bargained for." He shrugged.
"He's definitely not at all what I was expecting..." You trailed off glumly.
When you first met Jungkook, he was obnoxious, cocksure, and grotesquely unbothered. You swore you had never hated anyone more on the first meet. But as you came to know him, you found in him a lot of what you wished you found in yourself. Approachable, flexible, spontaneous...
You just wished it all didn't have to hurt so bad.
"You and I are a lot alike, you know." Erik spoke up once he noticed you fall silent. " And I only realized this recently, but I think that was our downfall. When I asked you to marry me, what I was asking of you... Well, it was unfair. Because I know I would never accept that if I were in your shoes."
Your head shot up at his words, hands quick to wave at him dismissively. Asking him to meet you here was not to discuss what had gone wrong in your relationship, and you didn't want him to think that it was.
"Erik, that's okay you don't have to—"
"No, no, what I mean is... we made perfect sense together and it didn't work out in the end. This meathead of yours is nothing like you and maybe it's for the better. You said it yourself that he makes you feel important and formidable." He pressed on.
"Are you trying to imply the notion of opposites attract? Because I personally believe that's a myth and that we're drawn to those similar to us—"
"Puzzle pieces."
"Wha— Huh?" You blinked, blind-sighted by the calm man's sudden words.
Suddenly, Erik readjusted in his seat, leaning in close as he nodded his head.
"Think of life as one big puzzle, and everyone you meet is shaped differently, right? Yet somehow... they fit. We find those that complete us. And they're not necessarily opposites but—"
"But different pieces in the puzzle." You sighed, understanding the metaphor.
You raised a brow at the intellectual man, "That was uncharacteristically poetic of you. I thought you were a man of science... since when do you rely on literary devices to get your point across?"
Erik let out a dramatic sigh, fingertips pressed to the rip of his glasses, leaning back into his seat as if showing his greatness.
"I'm a growing man, Y/N. Science helps you understand the mind and the body, but as far as the heart goes... there's only so much it can tell us." He tutted wisely with a wag of his pointer finger.
"Wow. I dig this character development. I quite like this new you."
"Wanna get married now?" He deadpanned suddenly, a laugh ripping out of you at his unexpected words.
Erik grinned at the familiar sound, also finding the humor within his joke. He was pleased to see that if anything, he could at least momentarily take your mind off of your heart's turmoil.
"Ask me again in another three years." You rolled your eyes, grinning wide, to which Erik threatened that if Jungkook didn't by then, then he just might.

I made those modern Jack and Fitzy headcanons over a year and a half ago. I started writing a modern!AU fic since then so I developed the headcanons more and I wanted to share some of them. Keep in mind this may be a little different than what I present in the actual fic. I’m making some shit up on the spot.
So picture this: The young Jack Sparrow books taking place today and all the characters are in high school in Tampa, Florida, and the school is called...
Barnacle High School
Jack the “I was at the door when the bell rang” Sparrow:
He’s one of The Boyz🥶🥵😎 But like the stupid kind who thinks they’re better than everyone else.
He’s a troublemaker and creates a lot of mischief around campus.
Mischief includes but not limited to: pulling the fire alarm multiple times, drilling holes between the boys and girls gym locker rooms, defaced a bunch of textbooks with The Boyz drawing dicks on every single page, one time he snuck into the office and played pr0n on the schoolwide intercom speaker, a time he gave everyone “shits and giggles” (laxative and weed) brownies at a school dance and caused everyone to shit and puke all over the gym floor and it made the news,..... How tf isn’t he expelled?
Unsurprisingly he gets in fights. The fights are half of the time started by other students, but gets in trouble anyway.
Constantly interrupts the teachers to the point where they write him up or kick him out.
Sometimes fucks with the quiet kids like “Hey, mate, do you know what we’re doing?” “Can you like teach it to me?” “You can do it for me, right?” “Why don’t you ever talk, mate?”
He’s actually pretty smart but the teachers don’t like him and home sucks so he gave up.
Probably has ADHD.
Wears layers, like leather, denim, flannels, t-shirts, hoodies, jeans of various “tightness”, studded belts, many pairs of combat boots or knockoff timbs. Half his shit is from Goodwill.
Undercuts for dayyyzzzz. Think Coming Storm cut but the bottom is shaved off.
Still wears his nasty ass bandana even though the teachers always tells him he can’t wear it in class.
His makeup literally always slaps.
He likes to collect random things and sometimes puts them on his clothes or his backpack or in his locker.
Obsessed with dead things (furs, pelts, bones, stuffed animals, etc)
Has a fascination with the sea and likes the nautical aesthetic.
Bonus: Yeah he totally vapes.
Arabella the “Shut up and let me work” Smith:
She’s the “good kid” and sometimes the “quiet kid.” Jack definitely fucks with her in class sometimes until she pops off and they both get written up.
She’s an honors student and exceeds well in her classes.
She’d rather blend in with the crowd and not many students really notice her. She keeps herself contained in a small group of friends.
If she’s not with her friends, she’s probably in the library.
She’s really into Art and History.
Kind of a conspiracy nut and likes reading into urban legends and stuff.
Infodumps about her interests to Jack and he gets hella annoyed.
Jack sometimes follows her around and she gets hella annoyed but she gets sad when he’s not around.
Mediates between Jack and Fitz.
Jack and Fitzy fight over her. Jean has shown a little interest in her too.
She ate the “giggles” from Jack’s brownies. She got so fucked up she had a panic attack and left the dance really early before all the chaos began in the gym.
Kinda looks like she hasn’t really left 2015...like basic white girl with knit sweaters and cardigans, t-shirts and tanks, leggings, boots or sandals, etc. Sometimes also wears hoodies and jeans.
Headbands and beanies and cottagecore-like bandanas.
Yeah her makeup slaps too.
She works for her father after school at the Tortuga Tavern, formerly named Faithful Bride before it was forced to change to something more “PC.”
Fitzwilliam the “My uncle is the principal” Dalton (the third):
Basic snobby rich kid.
President of every “snobby kid club”; the Chess Club, the Key Club, the Student Council, and Yearbook.
Also an athlete and is in the school’s track team and soccer team.
Is in a clique with his equally snobby friends.
Yeah but he’s like hella proper.
He’s well educated and knows several different languages.
Hella ignorant about certain shit tho.
Big fuckin FLEXER with his expensive name-brand clothing and tech.
Lies about being friends with celebrities and online influencers and shit.
Ate one of the “shits” brownies....Just leaving that to the imagination until I make a one-shot.
Drippin’ Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Michael Kors, Coach, etc... Literally like full fucking tracksuits, knit sweater over button-up combo, fancy coats, name-brand t-shirts, jeans over hundreds to thousands of $$$, shoes costing almost as much as rent.
The pocketwatch from the books is a fancy golden $30,000 Rolex wristwatch.
Jack keeps taking his watch.
Wears his hair up in a manbun like it’s still 2015 and Jack keeps teasing him about it.
Yeah got like a brand new iPhone and and iPad and a really expensive laptop and an iWatch even though I already got a regular watch on my other wrist.
Jean the “I swear to god she’s like my sister” Magliore:
Y’all know it, he’s in the Anime Club.
Jean and Tumen are best friends, and in my story, foster brothers.
Likes video games and always has his Nintendo Switch with him.
Internet memelord and low key has “band kid” energy.
Always be sending Tumen or the “Barnacle Crew” group chat memes.
Being from New Orleans is a personality trait and is very enthused with his Creole roots and loves creole dishes.
He runs a foodie Instagram account with a large following. Self proclaimed foodfluencer.
Sometimes sells candy and chips at school. Gets in trouble for it.
Yeah he ate multiple brownies at the dance....
Jean has a cat Constance, named after his deceased sister, he brings to school hidden in his backpack.
Constance will literally eat just about everything, mimics human noises, and her expressions are very human-like according to Jean. Her traits are so much like his sister, Jean believes she is his sister born as a cat in a new life.
He made Constance her own Instagram account.
Jack HATES Constance. Constance LOVES Jack.
Hoodies, jeans, headphones, beanies.
His hair is the same but a bit shorter.
“Suspiciously quiet kid” Tumen:
The quiet kid sitting in the back of the class and drawing while listening to music.
He is also in the Anime Club with Jean.
Since Jean is into video games, Tumen is a weeb.
Jean is the only person he really hangs out with at school.
Tumen doesn’t have a phone in my fanfic but for the purpose of this headcanon and the group chat, he does have one.
He’s more of a “lurker” in the GC.
Jean’s #1 meme reactor.
He watches anime crack videos.
Tumen is the most “immature” than the others since he’s the youngest.
The only one who didn’t eat the brownies. Got interviewed on the news.
He takes pride in his Mayan heritage.
Has a random interest in geography and wants a career as a cartographer.
Anime t-shirts and hoodies galore.
Always has his hood up in class.
Teachers always telling him to put his hood down.
Tim “the newbie” Hawk:
He eventually transfers to Barnacle High.
I don’t have a full headcanon written for him yet.
Principal Lawrence Norrington:
Principal of Barnacle High.
Fitzwilliam’s uncle.
HATES Jack Sparrow.... Again how tf is Jack not expelled?
Brings his kid James to work sometimes even though the kid should be at school himself.
Jack sitting in the principal’s office in trouble again and James keeps bugging him. “Do you play Fortnite?” “No. Beat it, kid.”
Tia Dalma:
The school nurse.
Jack is buddies with her and he goes to her and pretends to be sick when he wants to ditch class.
Has crab parts in jars in the cabinets. No one questions it.
Joshamee Gibbs:
The janitor.
He’s in the Navy but he’s on off-duty employment.
Jack is buddies with him too.
He writes Jack fake doctors notes or signs permission slips or covers for Jack when he’s ditching, in exchange for booze Jack has at home.
He had to clean up the gym after the brownies incident ☹️
I don’t know how to write Davy Jones into this.
For the sake of this headcanon, it would be funny if Torrents was like a science teacher or something. Or if Madame Minuet was like an economics or math teacher. Or if Silverback is an English teacher. Or if Left-Foot Louis is a PE teacher and he’s all running in circles because he’s got two left feet lol.
Btw all these teachers HATE Jack 😂

summary: Catalina starts college in a small town all the way across the country. She doesn’t know anyone and isn’t exactly looking for friends. She just wants to focus on dance. But when she meets fellow dance major, Jimin, and adventurous, fellow freshman, Jungkook, Catalina ends up discovering a whole new side to the small college town; one that is dangerous but oh so enticing...
                 Catalina took one last glance around her room before heading downstairs. She heard Jimin’s voice, which put a wide smile on her face. Him and Taehyung were back on time, which meant they’d be able to come with everyone that afternoon.
               She ran down the stairs, taking them two at a time, before landing in the foyer. Taehyung and Jimin were taking their shoes off and setting their bags down, chatting with Hoseok and Namjoon. Catalina threw her arms around Jimin and asked him, “How was your trip?”
               He pulled away and smiled wide, his eyes disappearing. “It was incredible. I’ll tell you all about it later.”
               “I can’t wait,” Catalina said, smiling just as wide.
               “We were gonna go to the beach later,” said Hoseok. “Do you want to go with us?”
               “Sure! I think we’ll mostly just relax, though,” said Taehyung.
               “Here, I’ll help you unpack so you can get yourselves settled before we go,” Hoseok said, following them back out the car. Catalina left the foyer and went into the kitchen. The kitchen was beautiful, so different from when she first came into this house. They had it remodeled, actually, they had a lot of the house remodeled. Everything was a bit more modern, but their antiques were mostly still around. Even Yoongi redid his bedroom, saying he didn’t want to sleep in a rat’s nest anymore. He made an incredible amount of money on the antiques in that room, the museums practically begging him to part with them.
               The light was on in the kitchen when Catalina entered, which meant Jungkook was in there. Sure enough, he was standing in front of the fridge, staring into its contents with bleary eyes. His hair was a floof on top of his head and his pajamas were rumpled. Catalina came up behind him and wrapped her arms around him. She laid her head on his back and listened to the steady rhythm of his heart, something she’s become so very familiar with.
               “What will you have for breakfast?” she asked. He grunted in response, shifting some containers around on the shelf. He finally chose a container of leftovers and cracked the lid to sniff it. He sniffed it three times before deciding it was edible and dumping it on a plate. While it was heating up, he turned and opened his arms, letting Catalina settle into him.
               “Are you gonna surf today?” he asked.
               “You asked me that yesterday,” Catalina said with a giggle.
               “And you said no yesterday!” he said. She could feel his laughter in his chest where her head was resting.
               “Maybe,” she said. “I heard the teaching process is very hands on.”
               He chuckled and said, “Where did you hear that?”
               “Hm, I don’t remember,” she said. The microwave beeped and Jungkook let Catalina go so he could grab his food. She pulled a blood bag out of the fridge and sat down with him at the dining table, sipping at her drink while he ate.
               “What are you guys doing up so early?”
               Yoongi wandered into the kitchen with messy hair and tired eyes.
               “It’s beach day!” Jungkook said, much more awake now that he was eating. “You’re coming, right?”
               “No.”
               “Yoongi, you don’t have to swim or surf or anything,” said Catalina. “You can just sleep on the beach. Or drink wine on the beach. You need the fresh air, you’ve been at your piano for days. Plus, I think everyone would really like to spend some time with you.”
               “When are you going?” he asked.
               “We’re heading out around eleven,” said Catalina.
               “Oh. I’ll think about it,” Yoongi said. “Are Taehyung and Jimin back yet?”
               “Yes, they just walked in a little while ago,” said Catalina.
               “Good,” he said. “I’m glad their flight wasn’t delayed.”
               With that, he left the room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
               During the drive to the beach, Catalina made sure to sit in the back of the Jeep with Jimin.
               “So, tell me about the trip,” she said, a giddy smile on her face.
               “Ah, it was perfect!” said Jimin. “I’ve never been to Arizona before so I didn’t really know what to expect about the weather or anything. It really is very dry there. The heat is like heat from an oven. And the places we saw were so beautiful. We camped in the Grand Canyon and… it was insane. The Grand Canyon is insane. Everything was so incredible. And at night, you could see the stars perfectly. When we camped in Death Valley, there was absolutely no light pollution for miles so the sky was amazing. We saw the Milky Way.”
               “Oh wow,” Catalina sighed.
               “You and Jungkook should go next summer,” said Jimin. “You’d love it.”
               “Yeah, I would do that,” said Catalina. “That sounds like a lot of fun. We need to make up for our last trip.”
               They sat in silence for a while before Jimin said, “I can’t believe we’re going to France in two weeks.”
               “I know!” said Catalina. “I can’t believe it! This is something I’ve been waiting for my entire life and I’ll finally be able to do it!”
               “Is your solo ready?” Jimin asked.
               “I mean, as ready as it’ll ever be,” said Catalina. “You know how it is.”
Her and Jimin had both taken the winter semester off to recover from their transformations and to get used to their new bodies. Catalina used that time to choreograph a solo worthy of an audition in France. By now, the beginning of summer, she had perfected it as much as she could.
“I’m going to the studio to practice it tomorrow,” said Catalina. “You should come with me. You can help, or just watch. You haven’t seen it finished yet.”
“What time? I’m babysitting tomorrow,” said Jimin.
“Oh right! You’re doing that every Tuesday now, aren’t you?” said Catalina.
Jimin nodded and said, “Yep, Caleb’s sister has dance on Tuesdays, so I’ll just be there for a few hours.”
“Are you still gonna do that when classes start? You’re signing up for classes in the fall, right?” she asked.
“Yeah, I don’t want to fall behind any more than I am,” said Jimin.
“Me too,” said Catalina. Then she smiled and grabbed Hoseok’s shoulder over the driver’s seat. “And you’re starting classes with us too, aren’t you?”
He laughed and said, “I sure am!”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The weather was perfect, and according to Jungkook, the water was ideal for beginner’s surfing. They got set up on a relatively empty patch of the beach. The family closest to them had a few kids, who were building a sandcastle near the water. It was Monday, so thankfully there weren’t too many other people there. Yoongi laid out a beach blanket and immediately laid down, covering his face with his sun hat. He was almost completely covered, with long sleeves and long pants. Catalina figured he was trying to protect his pasty white skin.
               Jimmy K settled down beside Yoongi with a thick book. Catalina had assumed he would be surfing with them that day; he seemed like the type to surf. Jimin and Taehyung lathered themselves in sunscreen and took their spots near the cooler, relaxing and watching the fun just like they promised. After shedding her shorts and tank top to reveal her new white bikini, Catalina lathered herself in sunscreen, since she could already feel herself burning. Then she grabbed her board and met the others down by the water.
At some point, the family next to them left and they were left to themselves on their private stretch of beach.
Catalina, Namjoon, and Hoseok kept their eyes on Jungkook and Jin, who were teaching them the basics of how to surf. They all had boards, rented ones for the newbies, and Catalina was excited to get out on the water. With every glance at the ocean behind her, she felt nervousness twist in her stomach. She had to keep reminding herself that she wouldn’t drown and she wouldn’t get hurt. Her body was stronger than it used to be, which was something she still hadn’t completely gotten used to.
                They were standing on their boards, Jin showing them how to position their feet. Jungkook went to each of them, giving them pointers or fixing their positions. He stepped onto Catalina’s board behind her and nudged her right foot forward a bit, hands on her bare waist.
               “Just keep your knees bent and your legs spread a bit more,” he said. His bare chest was pressed up against her back.
               “…And if you guys fall off, just let the current roll you until it’s settled, then come up,” Jin was saying. “But you guys won’t drown anyway, so no harm.”
               “Right, no harm,” Jungkook said, his hand sliding down to her butt.
She giggled and turned around to face him.
“Did Hoseok get this treatment when you helped him?” she asked with a wide smile on her face.
“He would probably like that,” Jungkook said with a laugh. “But this is only reserved for my favorite students.”
“Ooh, so Namjoon got this too,” Catalina said, winding her arms over his bare shoulders. He threw his head back and laughed. This was her favorite song. The sounds of his laughter, the waves hitting the beach, The seagulls calling overhead, his heart beating in his chest.
Catalina leaned up to press her lips against his, the board wobbling in the sand beneath their feet.
She never wanted this song to end.

I’m just running thru these eps at lightning speed with no rhyme or reason. Thank u to the 4 people who actually read my thoughts and like my posts <3 Love you
Bad Reputation - This episode is hilarious. I was cracking up the whole way through. The only actual “cringe” part for me is Brenda Castle, she’s just annoying. The music sucks but that’s literally the point, and the performances are fun and hilarious. The actual plot with the glist is kind of dumb but idc, the episode is a fun time all around
Dream On - It’s an okay episode but I simply do not vibe with it. The Artie stuff is sad but also kind of weird. And I have to assume somewhat offensive to people who actually are in wheelchairs. The Bryan and Will stuff is funny enough but it’s like who cares. And Shelby is an awful person who belongs in jail and also the Jesse stuff with Rachel is gross and uncomfortable. Like it’s fun enough but as a serious episode, I’ll pass
Journey To Regionals - Really some of the best of the best. I cried my way through the whole episode. You know an episode is working hard if it makes me feel genuine emotion towards Will of all people. I hate Journey but can’t complain about the songs. It’s the best competition episode and the best finale episode out of any of them, hands down. It’s iconic and memorable for all the right reasons and one of the best episodes of what Glee is all about <3 
Audition - I’m glad we get to see Sam but the rest of this episode is bleh. Will is an idiot and Rachel is annoying and the crack house thing was so stupid. Idk the episode isn’t good and also the music isn’t good either so what are we left with
The Substitute - This episode also just annoys me lol. Holly is cringe and Terri is just weird. Also Mercedes is annoying and she’s my fave so I don’t wanna see her like that. The music is okay but the fact that Holly focuses on Rachel and asks what she wants to do as if Rachel never gets to perform songs she likes?? Ok 
New York - The second best competition episode and season finale episode. Just seeing all my babies in NY makes me inexplicably happy. The songs aren’t great but the overall vibe is impeccable. Even just the little things. Quinn’s dramatic scene, the Hummelberry moments, the girls pillow fighting, Klaine’s first “I love you”, the Brittana scene. It’s all just part of a wonderful ep. Also I cried through it too, though not as much as 1x22
Nationals - Okay so obviously to each their own but this ep is... not good. Ten minutes of contrived drama that doesn’t matter, 20 minutes of nothing but songs that don’t matter bc you know they’re gonna win, then ten minutes of gargling Schue’s balls for zero reason. Not a fan. I’m not gonna pretend anyone but Rachel or Finn had a genuine kind word to say about that man. Maybe in s1 but after s3?? No. And the songs were mostly meh. Paradise is great and I loved the whole Tongue Tied scene that was somewhere in there, but that’s about it tbh. It’s just boring and anticlimactic and yeah
Goodbye - It’s a good episode but people who would accept this as the series finale are dumb as hell. This whole season is so Rachel heavy while shitting on literally everyone else and the finale is the the culmination of all of that. Too many loose threads left hanging and I wouldn’t have been happy if the show ended here. Overall it’s probably my 3rd favorite season finale. Also I don’t like the music lol
The New Rachel - I guess it’s not awful. It’s probably my... 3rd or 4th favorite season premier? I always say I heart the NY stuff but when it’s just Rachel there... not so much. We get the first of several exact same scenes between Rachel and Cassandra. You’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all. I love Brody, Unique, Marley, and Kitty. I hate the new Rachel competition. Love Kurt’s goodbye scenes both with Blaine and his dad. Only cried during those parts. Hate Brittany making jokes about scissoring and how Unique is Mercedes. Heard one, heard them all. The songs were all pretty middling, nothing special. I don’t mind the vibe change with the new group but overall the episode is pretty middling, nothing special
Homecoming - It’s a fun little episode but it’s like why are we hereee. It’s not what I want to be doing BUT I like seeing Kurt and Rachel and Blaine being educators and trying their best and being surprisingly good most of the time. I like the newbies but not so much right away. The songs are okay. Idk most of s6 is either trying and failing to recapture the vibes of s1, or just straight up referencing things that happened in s1-3 so the audience can fondly remember those times and maybe trick themselves into thinking they also like the new eps. Not working on me tho

Hi! May I get a matchup? I am a straight girl and Gemini. My personality is INFP, enneagram 2, and Hufflepuff. I am 161cm tall, on the chubbier side, and have shoulder-length dark brown hair with side bangs and an undercut. I also wear glasses and have some acne (lots of scars tho). I like reading, baking, going outside, hanging out with ppl, and playing mobile games. I'm quiet and shy when I first meet ppl but a complete crackhead once I feel comfortable enough. I'm empathetic & persevere too.
❴🐰❵┊ I ship you with ➸ . . .
──── 「 𝙹𝚞𝚗𝚒𝚌𝚑𝚒𝚛𝚘 · 𝚃𝚊𝚗𝚒𝚣𝚊𝚔𝚒 」 ────
Tumblr media
Junichiro could be considered normal in almost every aspect, except for the fact that he's gifted with a supernatural ability. But all in all, he's pretty ordinary. He got ordinary interests, ordinary likes and dislikes, and ordinary hobbies. One of those hobbies is playing mobile games.
He's exceptionally good in MMORPG games and a lot of his teammates count on him when doing missions. He's a very good team player as well, helping everyone as good as he can. You were one of the newbies that joined his group and although you may have felt intimidated at first, he just became one of those people you could ask for assistance or tips on how to power your character up.
Junichiro obviously knows what he's doing and it may be a bit superficial, but this truly impressed the Gemini within you. Perhaps it also doesn't help that whenever you would voice chat to give you certain instructions, his voice just sounds so attractive. Although you sometimes wonder whether his appearance match his voice, you just love talking to him. And then one particular Saturday, as you play together until 3 AM, you proposed to him an idea. Maybe it's because the need for sleep has already eaten up half of your brain, or maybe it's the burning curiosity as to who this magical voice belongs to but, you asked him for a meet up. You quickly explained to him that you just want to hang out and maybe see some sights in his city, and there's really nothing more to it than that. Junichiro's equally attractive laugh rang through the other line, assuring you that it's fine, and he would love to meet you.
It's safe to say that you aren't disappointed when you finally see him, he's as charming and as handsome as he is online. In return, Junichiro was quick to compliment you and your haircut, which he think suits you well. You were a bit awkward with each other during the first hour, barely talking aside from when Junichiro points out places like his work place and the café underneath it. But once you started talking about your common interests, that's when you began to warm up to him. You started cracking jokes to each other like how you do it online, poking fun at each other's mishaps in-game, and you noticed how his laughter sounds so much better in person. It's easy to say that the day ended with you being more attracted to Junichiro than before, and as you go from one meet up after another, your feelings for him leveled up as well.
The relationship will progress slowly but steady as an INFP like you doesn't rush in entering commitments and you make sure you are with someone you are truly compatible with. And because of Junichiro's carefree attitude, you won't feel pressured to make up your mind about your feelings for him. You'll have all the time and freedom to figure it out in your own time as you would also do for him. The strong foundation of your relationship will be because of the certainty of your feelings for each other. You can take your time in advancing to each step on the development of your relationship, especially in intimacy as this is something that you view more than just a physical act. Luckily, Junichiro feels the same sentiment as you, giving you the utmost respect as person and as his partner. Everything that he will do at this point is a proof of his love for you.
One of the things that you will also share with each other is unmatched loyalty coming as one of your Hufflepuff traits. However, you're selective of the people you trust. Also, being an older sibling, Junichiro could take as much care for you as you do for him and for others, being a Type 2. You can ask him to do household chores without worries, and he would even do things without you asking.
Overall, I think Junichiro is a good match for you because he's a mirror of the pureness of your heart. Both of you can be perceived as calm and reserved, warm and accepting, but have that inner flame that could blaze when it's for the things that absolutely matters to you. That's why the effort to do your best to be the ideal partner to the other will be equally reciprocated. Junichiro wouldn't let your hopeless romantic self feel lonely when you're in a relationship with him. Whether it be him generously giving you all of his love or when he's just being your best friend, being Junichiro won't let you have that space in your head to doubt about his feelings for you. Junichiro wouldn't get tired of soothing your worries about any of your insecurities away. He's as persevere as you are and would love you through the best and worse of days. He will not give you up that easily and would fight for you and with you. You will be a team like you are in the beginning, facing problems along the way together and any imperfections that a relationship may have. Both of you will work hard to keep your relationship as healthy and loving as you can. If you had any idea of a perfect relationship, being with Junichiro will change that in time and you'll realize that it is not about what you want but it is about what you need. And a loving, gentle, and passionate lover who is as devoted in you as you are with them is what you need; Junichiro is who you need.

CPAU: DisCo
pls kno im not a serious writer thank;; also it’s my replies only, i didnt share anyone elses (unless they want to share killer and his s/o’s whole thread along with the sideplots, i dont wanna paste their replies without permission tho i plan not to)
this may include othertale spoilers and rahafwabas’ killer!sans comic references
gonna put this on wattpad too
Dust explores the CP. he sees Color and his rainbow cracked skull is the first thing he catches. Color sees him back and walks to him first. “heya. i see you’re about to cause trouble.”
“wh... what? pfff...” Dust is surprised Color already knows who he is. “i can’t if this is some large christmas gathering. isnt it on christmas, you have to be well... GOOD???”
Color jumps back from the yell. “of course you have to. but, you’re one of those sanses, so i can’t stop ya.” Then, he realizes something. “say, aren’t you killer’s friend? have you two met before?”
Dust remembers who Killer is. “ohhh, that man?? yeah, we had to date once during our bad sanses sleepover. horror held the event cause it was halloween at the time.”
“huh... well, this is dangerous of me, i’m talkin’ to ya and anytime you might just kill me.” Color chuckles. “however, I know sanses can control themselves. I know killer can. he thinks i have to kill him, but it’s just wrong. i think he can change. he doesnt have to fuel himself with thoughts of murdery.”
Dust feels roasted. “WOW?? heheheh!! you’re so smart those colors must be how high your IQ is!”
“heheh, oh, that. so, here’s my story. i absorbed souls in a genocide timeline. i was about to die, so it’s the only thing i had to do. that’s why i look like that... that...”
Color gets interrupted by Dance, who teleported next to him. “uhhh...”
//OH NO COLOR X DANCE CRACK SHIP ALERT CAUSE COLOR!SANS LOOKS LIKE THOSE LED LIGHTS THAT SWITCH COLOR TO COLOR AHSJSJSK
— — —
“heya. you’re quite the party lights in here.” Dance is getting the gay feeling.
“oh, heheh, wow, huh?” Color feels awkward. “heyy, i know you! you’re that shy dancer who doesn’t get much stage fright the more he gets used to dancing. hip hop, right?”
“yep. yeah, that’s my genre.” Dance blushes. “what AU are you, if you don’t mind me asking?”
“i’m from othertale. fun fact, the AU’s not about me! i’m pretty much undyne’s supporting character.” Color laughs.
“cool...” Dance likes him- “i like your colors. where’d you get your lights?”
“oh, i was just explaining to dust pal here I got it from human souls. i, um, absorbed ‘em. needed it cause i was aboutta die.”
“that must be risktaking of you for your own life, c...” Dance winks, his left eye open. “hey, maybe we should... dance, sometime...”
Dust laughs at Color and Dance, gives a hard pat on Color’s shoulder. “uh oh, GAY alert!!!” Phantom!Papyrus is probably shook at this point.
— — —
“heh... sorry to say, but you’re too nice and popular to be with me.” Color answers. “I, um... already had letters with someone. kinda like dust, but...”
“it’s ok. if i dance too much, that’s when the beats go off.” Dance understands.
“yeah... honestly, he’d kill you if he sees you. If he were in this party and you say that to me... he’ll overthink his actions and end up on a killing spree.”
Dance knows who he’s talking about. “wait. you don’t mean... how...???”
“how?”
“how... how is he with you? wait, i must be assuming. who are you with, but not really?”
— — —
“u-uh... he likes... someone else, n-n-now...” Dance being the shy sweatpants boi he is puts on his hood blushing. “sorry, i said too much...”
“o-oh, no problem! killer chose me anyway, but i only chose him back cause he wants me to be his guy...de.” Color winks for the pun. guy-de for ‘guide’ lol.
— — —
Then, Color says his name.
“killer. he told me everything about himself. personally. there was no one else but me and him. like an error in his anti-void.”
“oh, uh... he’s h-here, actually...” Dance hesitates. “wait... i still have more to say...”
“ok.”
Dust walks out of the conversation, continuing to follow Red.
Red sees Killer being cute. “ah *shoes*-//“
he notices himself getting his words censored and thats embarrassing. “WHAT THE-////“
— — —
Color and Dance walks in.
“hey, what’s happening here?” Color asks.
“hi red...” Dance waves. “i hope your anger management’s doing well.”
Red’s starting to think he’s gonna have a BIG WHOOP. “OK, what’s goin’ on here?! who set this?! cigar’rus?!” he mentions US!Pap, the host of the therapy closet session.
— — —
Killer sees Dust and feels a bit scarEd. “hiya.”
“welcome to the party, that goes to the three of you....” Dance still shying out tho.
“hey buddy red. tough day? i heard you yelling back there.” Color helps Red.
“ya heard nothin, newbie!” Red nervously laughs. “feel like imma get stabbed by that dust guy there! or any of those funkers!”
Killer breaks up with Color 3 2 1-
“sir’s probably lookin’ for us, we should find a way out.” Dust puts a hand around Killer.
Killer blushes. “wait...// im still wearing this.”
Dust lets go. “ohhh’kayyy, take your time...”
Killer rubs both of his sleeves until he sees Color. “color....?”
“uh...” Color stops hiding behind Dance, holds Dance’s hand, and blushes. “yeah, it’s me.”
Dance blushes back, HE A HERMIT CRAB//) “(c-color, whuh)”
“long time no see.”
“heheh... i heard you found someone else, so... hey, it’s okay! if he can help you, honestly, i just said yes so i could control you. and, uh, manipulation is one of the bad things in relationships, right? so...”
Killer listens to Color. “don’t feel bad.”
“i’m gonna walk off cause i don’t wanna get caught. oh, and one more thing.” Color shows Killer he’s holding Dance’s hand. “once you see it, you can ditch me.”
“s-s-sorry/////“ Dance mutters while hiding in his hood hiding away his blue blushy flustering face.
last one: shoutout to outer sans being a fluffy pillow to the bad sanses out there uwu
Outer, still next to RainbowKill, looks at Dust while Color and Dance walk away together. Not only he should help Killer calm down, but maybe him too. He probably has a certain goal to calm down most Sanses that used to be good. Yep, still the most relaxed Sans AU.

is literally online 24/7,, does he even sleep??
smol caps, that’s it boiz
types random shit, such as ‘nsjdecjenf’ when he’s mad
is always havin silly arguments w kyoko,, over random shit,
get ready to be astonished by his large vocabulary yet writes shit that just,, makes u go fAcEPaLm
shuts one w the quirkiest comebacks out there,,
Ashido
you can literally sense shit lotta energy and positivity in her text even though she sends something as minimal as ‘sUPP yall’
suprisingly, not really online on discord,, but might reply at any point in 24h
types super fast
reads notifications mostly n joins in only when ppl are down for some badass gameplay *more of an instagram hoe*
uses lotta abbreviations,, and uses ‘lmao’ usually
always down for gossips
Kacchannn
are we even surprised of how much he cusses???
didn’t want to be in the groupchat, but kirishima kept adding him back
never texts w emojis or all large caps, even though he might be practically screamin’ while typing,, hence leavin everyone confused
lately he’s never on, since he muted the groupchat still an unknown fact to all
thus when he texts, the usual replies he earns range from ‘oh, so u alive.’ to ‘did you blast ya PC/phone this time too?’
calls everyone w fucked up nicknames,, except eijiro ofc.
‘What does brb even mean raccoon eyes?’ anddd ‘Try studying instead of crying in here fuckers”~ yupp vibes pretty confusin’ 
Kirishima
‘man up momo!!’ aka an attempt to emit motivation to our dear yaoyorozu after her fourth defeat in fortnite idk vid games,, don’t bully me uwu
well it did work,, cuz she won the next match
online, most of the day. yup. except for his work out period. again, yupp.
loves conspiracy talks, especially of heros and villans,, a new discovery for his classmates,,,
that’s all they talk about when he’s online and in full element
goes all caps lotta times and never really uses emojis
only one to sense the mysterious nature of kacchan’s texts,, you shouldn’t be surprised
hates using silly abbrevations, 
Midoriya
emojis,, sums it all
he literally goes all emojis at times- meaning to communicate full ass sentences *obviously for fun* ,, uraraka seems to be the only one to understand them, even ashido at times??
w every new online member, he’s the first one to text ‘how was ya day?’
it was here that he trolled bAkUGoU for the v first time, didn’t realise it until Aoyama points it out
ofc bakugou, yet again, replied in a confusin way. tho a few swear they heard him loudly cussin at deku in his dorm room.
blurts out motivational shit,, and his texts naturally feel fuckin relatable everyone just goes,, ‘yup’ ‘true’ ‘yaa’ ‘eXaCtLYyyy’ n so on
Uraraka
doesn’t really ever play video games to begin w,, this poor soul wonders why’s she in this group
ashido was the one to ask uraraka to sign in discord,, and she doesn’t regret it a bit.
is never really online
was once teased by yuga w uk who,, she wasn’t herself that day.
Iida
again, a newbie here,, didn’t want an account but had to make one under class’ pressure
never really online, well are we surprised??
is never really teased, but when someone makes him mad he mocks em’ using their full name
 not gonna lie,, that shit lowkey funny
once was being stripped off his innocence by indirect yet explicit description of sex by kaminari and mineta,, iida simply logged off to get away from that,,,
Asui
her laid back yet straight forward nature really shines in her texts, givin the most sweet yet blunt replies,, which might just turn out to be an unintentional burn
has amazing reflexes in vid games,,
never cusses or argues 
Todoroki
called izuku ‘young midoriya’ once, in hopes of being funny,, well,,, hasn’t tried to fake humour since then
kaminari was the one to help out our icy hot w makin a discord,, this dude was still stuck on facebook 
seems innocent, but unknowing cracks adult jokes in heat of the conversations,, earned him the name ‘icy thot’ from bakugou, but also is usually confused why everyone’s crackin up- i myself am confused w this imagination
but c’mon. he doesn’t text those intentionally,, lets hope maybe??
either replies to midoriya’s ‘how’s ya day’ and justifies his actions in games w long ass paras, OR replies w ‘oh’. 
tho amateur, he’s a vid game prodigy. apparently nvr played once before comin to UA high.
continued sending ‘gm everyone’ everyday for the first two weeks until his classmates teased him for that- no one by far knows if that did hurt his feelings or wut-
tries to make people feel better- ya
once gave a big speech justifying his love for cats. everyone read it ofc, n replied w kawai cat videos. shoto went to bed late that night.
Momo Yaoyorozu
she speaks pretty formally on texts, well ya she’s tryna loosen up a bit tho,,
andd quite impressed by denki’s vocab btw
she was the one to ask mineta and kaminari to stfu as they were describing- uk-

the only one who has not yet been teased on the group
click here for part 2;))

please give me more kl headcanons.😔
OKAY people this got WAY out of hand and i wrote 7 pages of an entire au plotline so uh. sorry everybody but it’s gonna be split into at least a couple different postswe’ll call this CHAPTER 1: (chapter 2 can be found HERE)I roleplay on MMORPGs so you’re gonna have to deal with my self indulgent online roleplaying AU. There will be klance but I have to SET THE STAGE first so bear with me. basically this is just multiplayer online video game roleplaying garbage. on that note, enjoy.
hunk and pidge were the first ones to discover the video game “Voltron.” they dicked around on it just to test out the game controls and perhaps get coding ideas for a game they are trying to create, but they ended up kinda enjoying it. the gameplay has its issues but is overall pretty fluid.
hunk plays a rogue. he has to turn the game volume down sometimes because of the gross gorey noises the game makes when he stabs people. he probably would have rerolled as a different class just to escape the gruesome sound effects, but he really likes being able to enter stealth. he says it makes him feel “safe”
pidge plays a mage. hunk is under the impression that it’s because she wants to play a class with high intelligence points, and pidge doesn’t correct him. but really she just likes the idea of turning her enemies into frogs
shiro is hanging out with matt one day and ends up watching pidge play. he wants to be Hip and Cool so he decides to create a trial account and see if he likes it. turns out, he’s TERRIBLE at the actual gameplay (his computer reflexes are Bad and he keeps dying to basic mechanics on literally every boss fight. matt downloads the game and creates a priest out of pity just to help keep shiro alive while he levels)
“this is demeaning for everyone involved”
“you’re the one who has died seven times now to haxus. literally all you have to do is not stand in the fire. you’re a FULLY ARMORED PALADIN TANK how are you dying so quic—wait a minute. shiro. shiro why are you still wearing your level 1 starting gear.”
however, he finds out that the server they’re playing on has a roleplaying community! he figures he doesnt need swift reflexes to roleplay, so he starts dipping his toe into RP and discovers he really likes it. he enjoys writing stories about his heroic character, and enjoys combining those stories with the stories of other people he meets in the game. it’s like collaborative fantasy fiction writing, and it quickly becomes a passion of his
pidge and matt tease him endlessly for it. hunk is an angel and is very supportive of shiro’s new hobby. he is the only one who will listen to shiro gush about his character. unfortunately when shiro designed the character, he did not have a good grasp on roleplay, so the character is goofy looking and has an overly dramatic backstory involving dragons and a lost royal bloodline. hunk kindly chooses not to comment on it, and instead helps him develop new ideas and plots for his character’s adventures
eventually shiro manages to convince hunk to give RP a try. hunk is very careful and does a lot of research on the Voltron universe lore. he reads all the fanmade wiki pages, roleplaying guides on the game forums, etc., until he feels confident he can create a good character. he does (and eventually goes on to be a popular community figure who hosts huge server events and is friends with literally everyone, but that is several months down the line), and he and shiro begin their roleplaying adventures together
hunk gets Really Into It. fast. like faster than shiro. and he takes it SERIOUSLY; he is a total lore nerd & WILL tell you (in a very gentle, caring tone) if your character’s story/actions do not comply with the game’s established lore
“your character’s outfit is so cool! btw tho, I noticed you mentioned your character was born in the castle of lions—just wanted to let you know, it was actually only rediscovered and unlocked about 10 years ago in the game’s timeline, so it wouldn’t really make work for your character to be born there, since they’re 27 D: but if you want I can help you come up with a different birthplace :)”
keith, lance, and allura had thus far managed to resist the voltron bug. they just aren’t into mmorpg stuff, they insist. single-player games, sure, but open-world multi-player? sounds weird
lance falls first. Hunk hits him with the puppy dog eyes and its all over for him
he creates the most ridiculously beautiful character he can
“i dont care about whether my guy is a freaking dps or not, hunk, i need him to have an ass like a kardashian. WHERE IS THE BUTT SLIDER HUNK. i have a NICE ASS and i want it IMMORTALIZED IN PIXEL FORM”
he does, in fact, end up picking dps. hunk shows him the archer class and he lights up like a christmas tree
“i know you always wanted to bone legolas, so”
“i wanted to BE legolas, not BONE him, HUNK”
“sure lance”
allura falls next. her and lance’s weekly “self-care spa sessions” turn into lance rambling about all the wacky stuff he and hunk and shiro got up to that week, and she eventually cracks under the pressure because she Hates when there’s a new fad and she doesn’t understand it
“and then this guy came up to us and started roleplaying with us in ALL LOWER CASE and shiro and i wanted to d i e but hunk was all ‘nooo he’s just a newbie in need of some pointers’ and then spent the next TWENTY FREAKING MINUTES giving this guy tips and tricks about grammar and punctuation–”
within 2 days she has gotten almost halfway through leveling her new druid healer because she is Determined damn it
coran, allura’s uncle, also begins playing shortly thereafter. allura never says why exactly, but it does seem to be a direct result of her influence somehow. he plays a gunslinger class because he’s “always wanted to be a ‘rooting & tooting cowboy,’ as you call it!”
for whatever reason, he is Very Good at the game, like freakishly skilled. everyone is kind of afraid to question it so they just accept it and move on
he and pidge are really the only ones who are focusing on the actual game content anymore, so they start doing high-level raids together and then begin to gain something of a reputation as a terrifying duo in player-versus-player combat.
keith is resilient. he is a notoriously stubborn boy and no amount of puppy dog eyes from hunk or persuasive lectures from shiro will convince him to step outside his comfort zone
but lance, well. lance knows exactly how to get keith to do what he wants
“i bet you just know my character’s way cooler than yours would be”
“?? no. i literally dont care about your character or anybody else's”
“huh. guess i will just always be better at video games than you”
“are you seriously still trying to hold your killbot phantasm score over my head. you got lucky”
“i am the peerless king of video games–”
“are you listening to yourself. do you actually hear the words coming from your mouth.”
“–undefeated because you are too much of a coward–”
“fuck OFF send me the fucking download link you loudmouth”
keith takes. forever. to design his character.
lance is leaning over the back of keith’s chair, giving outrageous suggestions (and blatant lies) that keith pointedly ignores
“keith. keith if you give him neon orange hair it boosts your speed, did you know that?”
“choosing big ears gives you greater perception stats keith”
“keith listen to me, you gain the ability to breathe underwater if you choose a broken nose—OW, what the hell–”
keith takes SO LONG that eventually lance has to leave for dance lessons and when he gets back keith is only JUST finishing up
turns out he took so long because he wanted to use every resource available in the game to make the character look like a carbon copy of himself. the end result would have been impressive if it wasn’t so eerily accurate
“you’re seriously naming him keith kogane.”
“it’s my name!”
“keith it’s a ROLEPLAYING game. you’re supposed to play a ROLE”
“and my role is keith kogane.”
“that doesnt even fit the naming conventions for the humans in this game! hunk would be having a FIT right now if he was here”
“good thing he’s not”
keith selects the warrior class because, as lance repeatedly and petulantly insists, he is a “boring basic bitch fuckboy”
“im the fuckboy?? thats rich coming from a guy who plays an archer because he has a big fat crush on orlando bloom in a blond wig”
“HUNK is spreading LIES okay I do NOT have a cru–”
“i dont know what you see in him. he’s literally just a white lotor”
“you TAKE THAT BACK”
to be continued :)

I beg you ELABORATE BIGLY
Tumblr media
*cracks knuckles* Hell yeah
Actual footage of me writing this all out:
Tumblr media
To start off, I’ll say that the egos are technically all roughly the same age. They’re figments, not humans, so it’s all a little fuzzy. Some of them look younger and/or act more childish, but even then they’re physically/mentally 20ish at the youngest. But they’ve all technically only been alive for a few years at the most (except for Dark and Wil, who as we know are ALL sorts of fucky), so the age differences between them all mean a lot more proportionally. I’ve mentioned this in fics before, how even a few months age difference means a lot to figments because they haven’t been around very long in the first place.
(pls lordt let the readmore work)
But on the whole, the egos fall into three groups:
The Older/Oldest Ones/The Elders (or The OGs, as I kinda like calling them) consist of Dark, Wilford, King of the Squirrels, The Host, Dr. Iplier, Silver Shepherd, Google, Bim, and Ed Edgar. They’re the ones at the conference table in MarkiplierTV, because they’re the head honchos. Dark may be the boss with Wil as his right-hand man, but all the older egos have the respect of the younger ones. They’re on the whole more mature than the others, and when things get crazy, they’re the ones the others look to for guidance (some of them are even older brother/father figures to certain younger egos) (tho Dark and Bim each have a boyfriend among the younger ones, which got some side-eyes from their peers at first but everyone’s over it by now). They’re also the group with the most politics in it: Dark and Wil don’t respect Silver at all, for example, and half of them only trust Dark as far as they can throw him (except for Google, who actively hates him in addition to not trusting him). But they’ve been around since the beginning, since before Ego Inc. even existed, and remember what it was like to live apart from one another without a solid way of life or place to call home. Dark was the one who brought them all together (not without resistance, mainly from Host, then The Author), so as wary as the others are of Dark, they do all respect him with various levels of reluctance. They also know very well what it’s like to lose egos, to see them get forgotten by the fans and fade away, and they’re all a little desensitized to it. It usually takes them a while to warm up to new egos for this reason.
If you look at the birth dates of the egos (at least among the main ones + ones that are in my canon), there’s a couple big gaps between new ones cropping up. Not that none appeared, but that none appeared and survived. The first such gap comes after Ed Edgar was made, leaving a space of a year and a half where no egos had enough footing to stick around. This period finally ended when Yandereplier popped into existence and became the first real baby of the family. Even though Ed was previously the youngest, he wasn’t much younger than the next-youngest (Bim) and never felt like the baby, nor was he treated like one. But Yandere, between his appearance after such a drought of new egos and the fact that he was the first one to really look younger than the others, made the whole group collectively say “oh, he’s baby.” It didn’t last very long, though, because more egos showed up pretty soon after, and became…
The Middle Kids: Yandere, MarkBop, Bingiplier, Oliver, Plus, Chrome, Reporter Jim and Cameraman Jim. They’re not quite babies anymore; they’ve been around for a couple years or more and they’ve become savvy to how things work in Ego Inc. But they’re still much younger than the oldest ones, and are still less mature than them. Of the three groups, this one causes the most trouble by FAR (Yandere likes wrecking shit in the city and is constantly getting hurt, Bing picks fights with 3/4 of the Googles and Plus and Chrome pick fights with him in return, and the Jims are just constantly Up To Something™). They mostly see the older ones as authority figures, but they aren’t quite up in the politics that the older ones create (even Yandere, who gets away with everything thanks to having Dark and Wil wrapped around his finger, barely notices that fact most of the time). They haven’t seen as much death among the egos as the older ones have, but they’ve seen enough to make them a little cautious around newbies. The hardest hitting deaths for them were the first pair of Jims, Weatherman Jim and News-anchor Jim. Those two were unusual in that they lived for a good few months before they faded, which hadn’t really happened before. The newer Jims, RJ and CJ, ended up evoking the same “they’re baby” response that Yandere did for this reason (and the one place where my subconscious grouping was inaccurate was with the Jims, who I associated as being in the younger camp, when they’re really just the youngest middle kids).
After the Jims show up, it’s a little over a year before the next ego shows up, leading to…
The Youngest Ones/The Newbies/The Babies: Eric Derekson, Yancy, Illinois, and Captain Magnum. Granted, Eric is almost a year older than the Heist egos, but let’s be real, he’s still baby. These four are still finding their footing among the group, still figuring out who their friends are, still finding the limits of Dark’s patience. They know the written rules but not the unwritten ones, essentially. To them, the middle kids are a mixed bag of fun friends/intimidating authority figures (half the noobs are scared of Yandere, for example, and they’re all intimidated by Plus and Chrome, but they like the others pretty well for the most part). They listen to the older ones and follow their lead much more than the middle kids do, and are intimidated by pretty much all of them. At the same time, the softer-hearted among the older egos (Doc, Silver, Bim) baby them a LOT. They’re not spoiled rotten, but they sure are spoiled. On the flip side, though, they haven’t been exposed to the loss of egos like the others have. Eric’s only seen a few egos die, and the Heist egos haven’t seen any die at all. They’ll be the most optimistic and hopeful when new egos show up – and be the saddest and most horrified when new egos die.
But yeah, I kinda subconsciously had them organized like this and it’s always influenced how I write them, even though I only just recently realized it enough to put it into words. It’s pretty wild what your brain can come up with without even trying! I truly love this dynamic for them, and it’ll be cool to see how it changes as more egos crop up (we’ll see if E-boyiplier manages to survive his first month without being forgotten :3c)
This is already way too long but I did compile a list of the egos in age order with their birth dates for my own reference that I can post if y’all want it (plus their astrological signs because I’m that bitch) (side note @ Mark WHY are so many of your characters Scorpios??) (also idc what Eric said in his video, he was introduced on December 2 so he’s a Sagittarius and not a Libra and that’s that on that)

For the send a ship meme I'll send both the power couple and the newbies (Brandon and Mike xD)
Eyyy okay~ x)
Naturally this is a long one so, I’ll stick a little link in~
Send me a ship & i’ll tell you: (Cinder & Chester)
who is more likely to fall asleep on the couch
Probably Chester, konking out after he’s gone too long without sleep and Cinder finally gets him to stop for a few minutes. Again. X’)
-
who makes meals and who is more likely to hoard take-out menus
Hmm.. That’s a trickier one~ In their normal verse Chester kind of hoards meals, and if one is off or there aren’t any in, he doesn’t mind cooking one himself, it actually gives him something else to do when he has time, but often he doesn’t and just ends up going without. Cinder I think might be excited at the idea of just being able to order a full meal from somewhere else, so I’d think she’d be more likely to have menues~ (She also keeps putting new ones around in Chester’s house for when he’s too rushed to cook and she’s not there, thinking he’ll stop and see them and actually get some food that day, because she’s lovely like that~)
-
who gives nicknames
I kinda feel like they both do to an extent? But Cinder would probably have to be the one to start it~ (cute headcanon alert- when/if ever they get into a back-and-forth nickname thing as a fun teasing game, Chester will at some point switch languages just so he can change to compliments without her knowing >w>)
-
favorite non-sexual activity
Maybe the hair-braiding? ^w^ (although I get the sense that they’d mix in as many new activities as they always can, and I know Chester is secretly partial to the basket-weaving~ ^^)
-
who leaves notes for the other to find
Maybe Chester? He still has difficulty reading in AUs, and I think that’s the kind of thing that Cinder would get a sense of and, maybe just leave nice short notes when she needs or wants to, maybe even just little hearts drawn about, that’d be cute ^^. But knowing how much Cinder loves to read, I think Chester would make the effort to leave little notes whenever he could too~
-
who crosses the street to pet a cute dog
Uumm.. I genuinely don’t know? x’)
-
who takes notes on the other’s favorite foods and makes sure the fridge is stocked
I feel like they would both try to, but Cinder would be way better at noticing when something was running low probably, because of having to check supplies at camp. Chester… is more haphazard and disorganised, so that probably wouldn’t work for him. but he would still be more likely to choose something she loves and make it on a day when he’s cooking, especially something she loves that she hasn’t had in a while.
-
who initiates sex most of the time
I will explain this; My answer is both. I think Cinder is so cautious about the subject because of how he usually reacts that, even though I think she’d actually initiate in practice, I also think she’d be more careful about how she does it. Maybe like planting hints an seeing how he reacts. So, if he’s interested, he’ll kind of then initiate, not really knowing that Cinder was thinking about it before he was. So they both kinda feel like they’re the one who starts it.
-
who apologizes first after a fight
They so rarely fight but I honestly think it would be very close to even, if not literally 50/50
who is more protective
Mmm.. Cinder. ^^
who says “I love you” first
Oooooooo…….. Maybe Chester? I’m not sure! I feel like Chester would be ready to say it first just on the love level, because Cinder kinda being raised not to even think about love or really herself. Having that awful relationship with Boulder though maks me second-guess it. Would she be less likely to believe that love is real or that it’s worth pursuing, and be less likely to say the words first? Or would the difference between Boulder and Chester be so shocking that she’d be almost a little swept away and be More likely to say it?
Chester though, while Cinder was raised to detatch from herself and her needs for others, Chester was raised in a place where being honest and expressing your emotions is part of the culture~ The only thing holding him back is the confidence issue, but I still kinda feel like he wouldn’t be able to hold it. He’d crack and tell her, but quite possibly framing it as an apology, because he sees her as so out-of-this-world amazing that even daring to mention that he wants to be with her is so opposite to what he thinks she wants.(But imagining how stunned he would be if she said it first tho >w>)
Honestly either way I think is just as good, because we know it starts off their amazing life together and that’s more than enough for me~ ;w;
So now for the newbies!! :D
Send me a ship & i’ll tell you: (Brandon & Mike)
who is more likely to fall asleep on the couch
Mike! He doesn’t even have a regular day/night sleep cycle. When he’s tired, as long as he’s sat or laying somewhere, he’ll usually fall sleep. Simple as. >w>
(Also now I know Brandon is a light sleeper, combine that with how hard he works/how little he takes time to relax, and it’s really no competition~)
-
who makes meals and who is more likely to hoard take-out menus
I’m not sure Brandon would have much time to make meals, but I do see him being someone who tries to eat healthier than take-out food. Mike.. cannot cook at all, and does love junkfood, but for a meal he prefers the social aspect of eating with other people around, so a take-out wouldn’t really be his style either?
I’d see them more having meals with Sandy or Mike’s family, and Mike would probably take an extra plate from meals with his family and bring it little tubs, or get help to pre-prepare easy meals for Brandon when he’s been working hard and needs a good meal and a rest~
-
who gives nicknames
Brandon~ In that thing where Mike tried his uniform on and Brandon called him superman because of his socks? So cute~ -w-
favorite non-sexual activity
uuuuhhhhhhhmm.. I really don’t know, but I think it’ll be a sweet journey finding out~ x3
-
who leaves notes for the other to find
Mike! They’ll be a little bit scrawly and poorly spelt, but that’s cute right? >w> He’d probably sneak notes into Brandon’s pockets in his different uniforms for when he puts them on, in the fridge on top of a treat he’s put in there for him… basically Mike is like a sweetness ninja~ >w>
(bonus, Brandon sees him doing this more often than Mike will ever know, because Brandon kinda wants to let him think he’s succeeding in making it a surprise~ It’s nice to see how excited Mike looks after, when he knows he’s put something somewhere and is waiting for Brandon to find it~ Plus it gives Brandon a chance to tease him by purposefully not “finding” it, dodging the area in a very vocal way until Mike gets too impatient and overeager and just has to tell him >w
-
who crosses the street to pet a cute dogboth! Brandon is sometimes too focused or busy, and Mike’ll do his best to drag him along, but when they’re out and relaxed I think they both would want to anyway~ :)-
who takes notes on the other’s favorite foods and makes sure the fridge is stocked
Maybe Brandon? To be honest Mike’s fridge is just evidence that he doesn’t take as much care of himself as he does others, there’s always food that’s way out of date, there are very few ingredients that look like they could go together at all, and it’s full of almost-empty junkfood wrappers (Or actual empty ones that he often puts back for some reason). I think looking in there would probably make Brandon feel that action was necessary ASAP. xD
-
who initiates sex most of the time
Mike does have a fairly high sex drive and generally consistent energy, so it could well be him, but he’d wait for Brandon to make the first move the first time for sure, and he would never ever push the issue at all. It’d just be like “okay~! You want some hot chocolate instead?” or something like that :)
who apologizes first after a fight
Mike has a tendancy to cut off and apologise before the fight has even finished so, yea. But I honestly don’t see them fighting, I think they’d be able to talk things through impressively calmly~
who is more protective
Probably Brandon. They both are, but while Mike’s is almost laced with a sense of usual guardian-angel-ness, Brandon has that kind of internal drive to protect that makes protectiveness just a bit more immediate and up-front~
who says “I love you” first
I honestly honestly love the idea of them both trying to and not doing it right or chickening out almost one after the other until someone else has to actually intervene and do it for them xD

So I’m trying to get into TRCNG and wanted to know if there were any videos I should watch to start to stan them?
Dear Anon,
I am glad you want to get into TRCNG and I will try to make here something like a masterlist of videos and recommend you those which are the basic ones. Prepare that it is going to be quite long. Before that let me just write
IF YOU WANT TO SHARE THIS SOMEWHERE ELSE, PLEASE PUT CREDITS THERE, THANK YOU!
Rising subs isn’t active anymore. There is another subbers team called TRCNG subs - you can find link below (there are also translations of videos from Japanese fanclub so definitely check it out… the channel is not that active either). Another is Hazel S which is now the most up to date with translations (also you can find link below).
There are also some good translators on Twitter and that is TRCNG SCOPE (Korean), Kei (Korean - not only posts but also parts of Vlives etc.) and Hazel
Links for channels
TS YT CHANNEL (TRCNG has two “broadcasts”, TRACKING - which is longer and usually is taken during some event; FUNNY10 - shorter videos, usually moments from certain events)
TRCNG VLIVE (TS uploads there all TRACKING and FUNNY10 episodes plus the rest of their vlives)
RISING SUBS (providing ENG SUBBED videos) (this channel won’t provide any new vids… now there is TRCNG SUBS (currently not that active) so there is another Hazel S which is currently the most updated
TRCNG JAPAN OFFICIAL (you usually won’t find whole videos; you can find whole on trcng.jp  but only if you are in the Japan Fanclub - it is free, I joined, the only thing is that you have to crack all that Kanji, Katakana and Hiragana, but google is a good friend and helps a lot lol)
Members’ videos
So for every newbie you should start to watch all subbed trcng videos there are up until now:
Introduction video  (where they introduce themselves very quickly, talk about what they like or about their, sometimes very questionable, nicknames), recently one kinda-like-intro video from Arirang
Instruction manuals (where other members say some nice, or not nice, things always about one member; Jihun, Hayoung, Taeseon, Hakmin, Wooyeop, Jisung, Hyunwoo, Siwoo, Hohyeon, Kangmin
And I recommend to watch crack videos from Adoringgguk because it shows you that dork/extra side of TRCNG
Those two are the basic of the basics where you learn something more about the members but tbh you get to know them more after watching other videos aka

Another Japanese interview

Now the ones without subs (or maybe some hard subs in vlives… for more check their Vlive channel I haven’t written them all here bc it is way too much there lol)
When they were live in tbs fact in star interview (it is worth to watch, bc random play dance, Hayoung and Kangmin singing and lot more)
When they danced Shark dance (which they, btw, prepared for their first showcase)
When they were on THE SHOW and Youngjae was the interviewer (PART 1, PART 2, PART 3, PART 4)
When they appeared on CELUV TV maybe in the future there will be subs on VLIVE
When they had MY VERY FIRST VLIVE (and we could finally see them in casual clothes); Their SECOND VLIVE and got so into the game that they disconnected the camera and had to make SECOND PART OF SECOND VLIVE
When they made two teams and do Quiz Champion (warning you will cringe a lot) Brain Team (Jisung, Hakmin, Jihun, Hyunwoo, Kangmin), Short Team (Taeseon, Hayoung, Wooyeop, Siwoo, Hohyeon)
When they celebrated 100 days and they finally got over 1M hearts and it was the messiest and softest vlive ever
When they celebrated 200 days and it was probalby soft again but I dunno bc I haven’t watched it yet lol
When Hayoung was MC for TRCNG ON AIR 1 vlive and Hakmin for TRCNG ON AIR 2 and Taeseon for TRCNG ON AIR 3 (and ON AIR 3-2 because TS fucked up)
When they made random Vlive in school uniforms and Hakmin killed us with his vocal skills
When Hyunwoo and Hayoung were one team and I thought I’d die Vlive also knows as one huge mess and second part with the rest of members
When they had (Jihun, Taeseon, Hakmin, Hyunwoo) a vlive which was a huge mess and wild B.A.P appeared
When they were in backstage during Dream Concert
When they played that game with the bulldog as B.A.P did
When Peoplegate made few vids with them FIRST, SECOND and recording from Valentine Music Talk Show
When they were behind Show Champion stage
When Hayoung and Hyunwoo were in Arirang’s Idol Class
In the very end, there are some youtube TRCNG video edits channels Adoringgguk (I love them they make the best TRCNG crack vids)Acixe *TRCNG Trash*, is it a meme yet
!! Also there may be some vids subbed on their Vlive… currently it is Taeseon’s latest vlive and will be there even more in the future (at least from what I know from the person who is translating them) !!
There is so many of videos now it is hard to recommend something... so watch intro videos and then Arirang ones and then vlives (Subbed one is definitely the Summer Vacation Week).
I hope this was helpful for you (and also other TRCNG stans) and I hope that you find here what you needed haha. I hope you will support the smols in the future

I start training in two weeks for teaching! My first day is in about a month. What will you be teaching? Any tips for a newbie?
Hey anon! Congrats on the new position!! That’s so exciting! Are you nervous? (Don’t be lol) What are you gonna be teaching?
Well, I work in Training & Development for a Bank so I’ll be doing systems training for adults 😅 lol. I don’t mind the audience cuz I’m not that great with kids, tho my friends who are school teachers have nothing but good things to say about it.
I’m deff not an expert but some tips I’ve been given that really work for me are:
1. Do your research! Don’t go into class unprepared (I know you won’t but still lol) It’s important to learn (not memorize) your material before hand and in a way that makes sense to your position and audience. For me, I make an outline of everything I’ll need to discuss and review it. Then I pare that outline down to a simple one pager to use as a guide during my class in case I forget or skip something. Of course if you’re a teacher you’ll have a learning plan/curriculum that you’ll be following which will help you structure your day and lessons. It’s always helped me to explain subjects that are a bit tricky for me to articulate to someone else that’s not versed on the topic and get their feedback. Like did that make sense lol? If you’re well prepared you’ll be much more at ease at the start of class knowing you have a good handle on your material.2. Be confident in yourself! Odds are you’re the expert in the room even if you’re a newbie. You’re teaching them, don’t forget that and they’re here to learn. So don’t stress if you don’t know every, single little thing at that exact moment. No one does, okay no one lol. Most of it comes with repetition and time.3. Don’t hide behind your desk/podium! Walk the room. Be energetic, crack (appropriate jokes). Being funny is always daunting to me and I stress cuz my humor comes out in my personality not cuz I’m a stand up comedian. I also want ppl to like me lol. But don’t worry it’s not necessary and anyways when you let ur personality shine through you’ll find wiggle room to be engaging and funny. Just let it happen, sometimes it’s not overnight but you’ll find your style. As long as you have energy ppl will be engaged so don’t worry about being funny. You just want everyone to enjoy the time they spend with you. Let’s be real, half the time the material is boring anyways.4. If you don’t know the answer to someone’s question that’s okay, use this line. “That’s a great question! I’d like to do a little more research on it so I can give you the best answer, let’s make a note of your question so I can get back to you!” Bam! Crisis averted and no one thinks your an ignorant shmuck cuz you didn’t answer immediately lol (I like to write their question down on the board or on a post-it so they can see they’re being acknowledged. Then you can always follow up with the answer next class or via email (depending on the audience) when you’ve had some time to look it up. (You know when you aren’t under pressure lol)5. Last and I can’t emphasis this enough FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT!!! No one knows this is your first time but you and your superiors. So do your best cuz that’s all you can do after all!
Again I’m not a guru or anything but these tips work well for me. Congrats again on your new position! And if you wanna talk or have any other questions don’t hesitate to hit up my inbox or shoot me a pm :D
I’m rooting for you anon, you got this!! Let me know how everything goes 😘
*edit* also anon if you can find a mentor (your boss or veteran employee) I highly encourage it. I was my former boss’ muse and while it was tough at times I really valued that experience and still use everything I learned today. They’ll show you the ropes and encourage/guide you. It’s also great to have someone to talk to, get feedback from and just voice general concerns to.
