#tbh I'm probably missing a bunch LOL but these are some of my favorites~

[science-lings]

what’s some of your favorite loz/Lu fics of all time? :)

Most of my favorite LU fics are here

but what you guys may not know is that I'm also a big fan of botw and modern au Zelink fics, however, take heed, most of these get a little spicy

Like Real People Do by ScarlettStorm: one of the best post-botw fics out there, lots of pining, I absolutely adore how Link's experience with Gender is portrayed, how he and Zelda are both treated as equally traumatized, as sometimes it feels like there's always one troubled one and one caregiver and I can get that for shorter fics but this one is long and beautifully balanced in that aspect. It also gets real horny at the end and in my opinion, it's very tasteful.

Alone With You by @deiliamedlini: honestly this author has a bunch of bangers, I'm waiting for their pirate au to finish so I can binge it all and I reread their Zelink oneshot collection all the time, this one is their modern high school au where Link is kind of a bad boy who is secretly Fucked Up, and Zelda is a popular girl and surprise surprise, they both get along really well. Normally I hate anything that reminds me of high school but this is the only exception. I love how previous characters are included, like how Link knows ASL bc he's friends with Pipit who is deaf and how Revali is a bitch and I still want to strangle him. Also big sister Aryll is a treasure and this fic does such a good job portraying Link's mental struggles and PTSD and how Zelda is being neglected and I'm also a big fan of the overarching plot of medical issues and trauma.

The Calamity of Link's Cargo Shorts by @zeldaseyebrows: I don't understand how someone can make smut so funny and so focused on Zelda's own self-hatred. Seriously though, there's a lot to love with this fic and I adore Zelda's pov. Sometimes you have to have sex before opening up emotionally and that's okay. Also, it's a modern au too, I just realized how many of these are modern aus.

Strangers in the Night by @zeldaelmo: Another modern au, this time Zelda has a kid from a ons with Link and he doesn't know about it for a bit, I just love Link being a dad and how they both work for a museum and there's just something about the courtroom scene that makes me want to reread it over and over again. Sometimes it's hit or miss with family ocs but Tetra is my favorite zelink child ever. All the fics on this list are ones I reread a lot but this one is the one I'm currently rereading bc it's been a few months lol. I love the domestic but also a little dysfunctional vibes, it's definitely not the normal romcom type of thing but I think I like this more.

K.K. Love Song by @airplanned: Again, modern au, pandemic edition. This one in particular has a certain unexplainable soft vibe, like there's some long-distance, Animal Crossing online romance and idk why I like it so much, I guess I was one of the suckers that got pulled in by new horizons when it came out so there's some strange kind of covid nostalgia and it's nice to see how a functional government would deal with the pandemic. Also, Link's grandma is a treasure and there's something sweet about crown princess Zelda meeting some guy on animal crossing and accidentally making him a public figure by dating him. Honestly, this author has a lot of great fics that I reread a lot lmao.

Farore's Day and Windvane Lane by Jenseits_der_Sterne: modern thanksgiving au, Zelda is a quirky scientist single mom and Link is her neighbor. I love Link being a nerd and Zelda being a bit of a disaster. Like she accidentally almost blows up her kitchen and he's just looking on with heart-eyes, after helping her put out the fires of course.

tbh, I'm probably not the best person to go for fic recs as I just find a few really good ones and then reread them till the end of time and rely on other people to recommend me things to read lmao, I hope this was at least a little helpful anyway.

#i really hope none of these authors mind being tagged #honestly i could probably go on by I'm on a time limit #i should probably read more though #im not great at finding diamonds in the rough I'm not great at searching for fics #I just reread the same ones over and over again #ask andromeda #fic recs #zelink #loz fic recs #for an aspec i really do love these little elves falling in love #i just realized that only one of these isn't a modern au #i genuinely didn't know that i read so many modern aus...

[ambrosialdesire]

God it’s my favourite thing when an author just builds their AUs by answering a bunch of discrete little asks cacoethes Reiner is on ‼️ my ‼️ mind‼️ 24/7‼️

Would Reiner control readers social groups? What would happen if reader cheated on him would he go apeshit or just do the good ol baby trap

AW TYSM FOR YOUR SUPPORT ANON 🥰🥰 i just love talking about cacoëthes, it’s my absolute bread and butter (and probably the first series that i finished in the ~10+ years i've been writing lol)

reiner definitely controls reader's social groups when he can. before bonding with porco, she was only really allowed to speak with the warriors and his family. anyone else either doesn't pay any mind to her or was too afraid of her (since she originated from paradis and is well-known to be married to the armored titan holder), but very select few like the fisherman that helped her can hold a conversation with her and ignore the status she has. tbh reiner really can't control who she talks to since he's out and about a lot but i think in another ask, i've mentioned that he hired some people to keep watch of her if she's doing anything suspicious or behind his back but they don't really keep complete watch on her bc wtf else is a housewife gonna do (this is literally their undoing bc she got away with a lot before the escape attempt happened 💀💀).

but like after the whole porco shit and the escaping, he never leaves her side and literally goes with her everywhere. groceries, shopping, even a simple stroll to stretch her legs, he's coming with her. conversations with any stranger are cut short and if the warriors are nearby, they'll only get a brief hello and a wave from them. reiner's so smothering that it's even more unbearable and reader never gets the chance for some peace until he leaves for more fighting. BUTTTT when he leaves and the house becomes all quiet, reader can't admit it aloud but she started hating the silence and starts missing his presence, as clingy as he is hehe

I LITERALLLLLYYYYY HAD THIS IDEA BACK WHEN I STARTED THE 2ND PART OF CACOETHES AND WHEN I WAS WRITING THE PORCO PARTS ABOUT LIKE A DIVERGENCE OF THE PLOT WHERE IT'S PORCO'S POV AND HE AND READER GET TOGETHER BEHIND REINER'S BACK. i kinda did wanted to originally add an implication that reader was sleeping with porco but since i was trying to go about this by how the characters were in the actual plot of aot (even tho when i started this blog and posted the first part, i hadn't watched the series since like 2013-2014 so i was extremely rusty when i came back to it), i felt like porco would never try sleeping with his vice captain's wife; maybe he would cause he'd prolly do it out of spite or get on reiner's nerves or has this cocky attitude about being able to get away with it, something to that extent. however, i think he's too prideful to be sleeping with an "island devil" he kinda likes and sorta has a slight amount of respect towards reiner (just bc he's a higher rank and that's about it).

i'm still going to actually make a fic about that plot eventually so everyone can see how reiner acts like in a jealous rage (i also sorta talked about it in a kink ask with the blog's most frequent asking anon, bow anon ( aka 🎀 anon (shoutout to you, you absolute horndog 🫶) if you look around in my answered posts or the love-message tag), and i have another request that's in the works about reiner's jealousy in more detail).

i heavily enjoy talking about cacoëthes and like you said, building upon its silly little fic-verse. sorry to my other fics due to my outspoken favoritism 😭😭 now that i think about it, out of all of them, bounded/boundless and cacoëthes gets asks the most and down boy, down and inamorato gets the least lmfao

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

Yes. As soon as I see them I will reply with a thank you or to engage with someone's question/musings/etc.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Probably a Roadrat one. It's been a while since I've read my work, but The Things They Lost is a Roadrat fic where I explored a bunch of like... when Junkrat lost his arm and stuff like that. Brutal, tbh. Next closest is my Alucard (OT3) Castlevania fic where he is BIG SAD about Trevor and Sypha not being there. Nights Spent Alone.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

UUuhhhuhuhuh..... I mostly write sad shit LOL. Milkshakes has a happy ending. It's a 2 part modern-day Steddie fic about the boys asking each other out on a date over Instagram.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

I've never seen any hate on my fics before.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Uhh, yeah. I do. PWP or With Plot. I like full stories that have smut that BELONGS there, but then we've got just straight-up PWP. That is what Basketball short is tbh.

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

No, never written a crossover. I've written lots of AUs though.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

No. Dunno how I'd figure that out.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

No.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Nope. Dunno what that would look like tbh.

14. What’s your all time favorite ship?

Steddie; for right now. My other top 3 are Harley/Ivy, Tim/Kon-El, and Lan Wangji/Wei Wuxian

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

NO IDEA. Lol, all my unfinished WIPs are either ones I have no interest in finishing (Roadrat), or ones I can complete faith in being able to finish (Steddie)

16. What are your writing strengths?

Speed. I can compose a story very quickly and put it together.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

I never promote myself/share. I'm really bad at sharing my works. Additionally, I'm bad at finishing things before I lose interest.... eep.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

Uuhh maybe. I def have some Ancient Greek and Latin in my up-coming Robin (Stobin platonic) fic.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

I'm not sure... maybe Batman (Tim/Jason or Tim/Kon). I RP'd A LOT from ages 13-18 and had like 5-8 rps going at once for a whole bunch of fandoms. (Naruto, OCs in the Star Wars universe, Tim/Kon, and more I can't remember atm).

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

Ooohhh, I dunno. I'm bad at picking favourites. Right now I'm pretty proud of my Because I Want You Steddie fic. It's Steve and Eddie as 30-year-olds with kids. They broke up in their 20s and are trying to get back together in their 30s. Eddie has a complete breakdown in it, but Steve is there to tell him that he loves him.

I don't think about this stuff at all xDDD Fic writing is just a pass time for me. This will be the first time EVER in over 18 years of writing fic that I've EVER participated in an exchange/Big Bang. I'll tag @medusapelagia @oh-stars @br0ck-eddie @kallisto-k

#lore for me

[appleciders]

6, 8, 18, 19

beautiful flipped symmetry in these numbers bro thank u!

6. Are there any fics from others you reread all the time?

ooh, all the time i'm not sure, but i'm a serial bookmarker (LOVE to bookmark something) and i definitely do come back to stuff!! i'm having trouble thinking of names right now. there's just so so much incredible fic out there tbh. if you're willing to do some sifting, here's the full unfiltered (💀) list that's been growing since i was like 14

(oh wait: actually, just remembered one that i do come back to probably at least once a year, until the sun makes the hills its grave. i have no idea how i even found it, given that i only watched the first two seasons of the 100 and i'm missing half the context for it, and i don't know why this one resonates with me so much, but there's a certain kind of mood i get into where i love to reread it)

8. What project(s) are you currently working on?

i haven't been writing too much at the moment! moving and life stuff has thrown a wrinkle in it. i've got a bunch of half-finished ficlets for bad sisters that i don't know if they'll amount to anything bigger, especially bc the response to the last one wasn't super interested. for in-progress projects that have been on new-hyperfixation backburner that i hope to return to, i've got my mary circle of magic au for wn and my lupe butching her way through domesticity fic for aloto

18. What’s one of your favorite lines you’ve written in a fic?

oh hmm. this chunk from housed as they are has been sticking with me all through this year, so right now i care for it a lot!

“Another part of me can’t stay here.” She tips her face toward Addison, almost apologetic. “Both hurt. But I love too many people to keep away from either.” “So go,” Addison says. “Go and come back.” Like the tide, Maggie thinks. Like the circulation of blood from the heart. Go and come back.

less seriously, i love a lot of the silly little jokes i made in this same fic lol

19. Give us a small teaser from one of your WIPs.

i wish i could give you a chunk from the prompt that's sitting in my inbox, because i do hope to get some wn brain soon to be able to fill it for you!! but here is some mary&lilith from the mary fic i mentioned in the meantime (with bonus shannon)

Lilith makes a face, entirely ungrateful of Mary’s prodigious restraint. She looks around. “Where’s Beatrice?” Shannon and Mary give her matching looks. “Still? Yanna’s hands.” Exasperated, Lilith appeals to the Living Circle god of healing. “One day, the pipes for the private baths will break, and she is going to have to bathe in the trough with the pigs.” Mary shrugs. “She might prefer that. Over you.” Lilith scoffs, splashing a wave of water at Mary. Mary slaps the water to spray her back. Shannon, caught in the crossfire, retaliates by shoving Mary off the bench. Mary grabs Lilith in her attempt to keep purchase. The two of them fall sideways in slow motion, Lilith’s vice grip clenching around Mary’s wrist. They surface, spluttering. “Oh, you–” Mary starts. “Shannon,” Lilith harmonizes. To any outsiders, Shannon would seem placid, at most mildly amused. To the two who know her best, she is utterly, unbearably smug. Mary looks at Lilith. Lilith looks at Mary. As one, they lunge, grabbing Shannon on each side and yanking her in. She lets them; she comes up laughing. All three of them are grinning, then, neck-deep, droplets of warm water hanging like clear beads from their faces. Lilith doesn’t even start a whirlpool, though, as she readily threatens, she could.

#not that small i guess but! here u are thanks for the questions <33

[winged-fool]

As always, would love to read your episode summary. Also, in case I haven't said so in the past thank you so much for putting yourself through this atrocity of a show and providing summaries of its stupidity 😗😗😗. Its my favorite way to experience RNM.

Oh, my friend, that is such a nice thing to say! I've been watching this clown show live since I think 1x07 or 1x08? While it has TESTED me, I've invested so much time and effort into it that I had to see it through to the end so I'm really happy that my nonsense reactions are fun for other people :)

Now that that sap is over with! Summary below the cut!

The episode began with a Liz voiceover which really felt like a s1 throwback. It showed a bunch of scenes while she was talking about how far you would go for love and obviously the only one that matters is the malex scene. Dallas and Bonnie were decorating the chapel and Bonnie put up a Malex Forever banner which while sweet was...ridiculous lol Alex looked so excited to marry the love of his life while Michael looked on sadly.

Alex does his vows and I just couldn't take the scene seriously with that godawful blue filter slapped on and Alex was wearing his beanie. I sear it was a Look and not a good one lol. Michael decides to say "I don't" for his vows because he doesn't want Alex to die and he thinks he can still figure out a way to get them out of there. Alex desperately pleads with Michael to not let him die without marrying him which woof yanno??

In the no-filter universe, Liz and Kyle are working on trying to recreate fuel to get them out of the blue-filter universe. Isobel and Kyle decide they're done waiting and they're just about to kiss when Max interrupts them. *shakes fist*

They go to the portal because Maria had a vision or something idk I wasn't really paying attention because I don't care? They realize that Clyde is probably in blue-filter hell so Max and Isobel decide to go into it as well and echo has a passionate kiss while kybel decide to take the plunge and do the same. All very moving het stuff (I say this bitterly only because I think the malex kiss was pretty tame last week...)

The storm in blue-filter hell is getting worse but they go to where the tree that grew fuel fruit so Michael can try to revive some of it. Which then Alex is like since when are you a plant daddy? Which btw makes no sense because didn't we find out in s2 that Michael wanted to study agriculture engineering? Or am I making that up from fics?? Anyway, Michael calls Alex babe and also that he wants to take a shower with him (this sounds like a total non-sequitur but everyone was talking about missing water and what they wish they could do in no-filter universe).

Clyde shows up and kidnaps Bonnie, easily incapacitating everyone else. Alex is steadily getting weaker and feverish. Max and Iz show up and then they go fight Clyde and free Bonnie but not before he takes some of her blood so it can get rid of the mark/tattoo on his shoulder (the alien symbol which It think is the mark of Ophicus but I'm going to be real with you, I don't remember or care...)

Liz is steadily losing her memory from her alien mist drug stint but is keeping it secret. Kyle finds out because of course he does, he's a smart one. She almost relapses but Rosa had locked the mist and told her later that she knew she wouldn't. It was a very sweet Valenti-Ortecho moment tbh.

They figure out what they need on their end of the universe so they head back to the spaceship portal thing while the blue-hell gang do the same on their end. They also have Clyde in alien handcuffs which he easily breaks free from once the portal is open. Because of Bonnie's blood, which for some reason has trace amounts of DNA from everyone she's ever kissed and their powers, he is super crazy strong now and kind of freezes everyone in blue-hell, destroys the fuel to the console that opened up the pocket universe, and pops on over to no-filter universe.

The aliens immediately give up in blue-hell and Michael goes over to Alex to tell him he's sorry for not marrying him when he had the chance and he thought with his heart not his head etc. And Alex is like my love, my sweet handsome cowboy, I mean this with all the love in my heart but please stop whining. There are 6 aliens here, figure it out. And then Michael is like, you're right, you're right! And tells Dallas to use his water power to pull the fuel from the ground from when Clyde broke the console. Max is holding back the storm while they get this all done and finally are able to reopen the portal. Where would they (and this show) be without Alex Manes??

Tezca shows up in the pocket universe to kind of coach Max into controlling his powers to hold off the storm blah blah blah who cares, Isobel feels sad about her being there because it means she can't get out because she also has the mark of Ophicus but she tells her to go and then she and Max leave and Tezca is no more.

I left out a lot of the nonsense with Shevani, Maria, and Sonia (Eduardo's daughter) but honestly nothing of value imo lol

#rnm s4 #rnm spoilers #my shitty rnm recaps

[eskawrites]

you know what? I WILL be annoying. xoxoxo. 38, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 66, 80

<3 <3 <3

38. how many stories do you work on at one time?

the answer to this used to be 1, maybe 2 if i had an idea for something short come up while i was working on something longer. now there are apparently no rules, throw it all out the window, i've been cycling between 5-10 different stories for like a week and i'm starting to lose my mind

43. how did writing change you?

tbh i've been writing for as long as i can remember, so like, it definitely has changed me, but in the same way that growing up has changed me, or going to college, or coming out, or living on my own, or starting a career. in basically every stage of my life, up until and including right now, i can point to a dozen different ways that writing has helped me learn and grow in some capacity. but i guess if i had to choose one, probably that it's given me more confidence and really helped structure the way that i view myself and my goals

44. any writing advice you want to share?

well the most important thing is to make sure you're enjoying it. like, there's no point to writing--or being creative in any sense--if you're not getting any entertainment or catharsis or peace or whatever from it, why are you doing it?

but beyond that, i guess my advice for anyone who is serious about writing is to consume stories. i had a lot of college professors be like 'if you're not reading all the time you won't be a good writer' and like i get where they're coming from, but it applies to more than just reading. watch movies, play video games, listen to your friends gossip. the more you experience and think about stories in any format, the easier it is to apply what you like or don't like to your own writing style

45. name three of your favorite fanfic writers.

um you, obviously. @dufrau is astonishing to me, every piece hits so perfectly and leaves me thinking about it for days. and @categorical-mouse because i genuinely think about it's just blood under the bridge like once a week, it's by far my favorite imagining of the group post-hawkins, and war correspondent nancy is one of the most heartbreaking and thrilling characterization i've ever seen

this is so hard there are so many though there's so much great work in this fandom

46. what time are you the most productive when it comes to writing?

any time that it's dark tbh. my prime used to be between 11pm and 2am, but having a normal adult job and a normal adult schedule doesn't allow for that as much as i'd like lol

47. what story are you most proud of?

this is always a toss up between raise dead and this story that we found ourselves in but it's gotta be this story, yeah? it took over my life for like 4 months, it turned into this massive, sprawling thing and i have a clearer grip on it, and that iteration of the characters, than i ever really imagined possible

66. when have you felt the most confident in your writing? 

um so it genuinely might be when i was finishing the celebrity fake dating au. once i got to, like, 3/4s of the way through? i'd gotten through all the unknown parts and i knew exactly where the story was going, and anything that wasn't already planned out was just fun to write. it was great. i was sailing. there were so many lovely late nights where i'd just put on my playlist and write a bunch of soft ronance scenes, and in the morning i'd read it back over and just be so excited about the story. ugh. i miss it

80. do you try to put themes, motifs, messages, morals, etc in your writing? if so, how do you go about it?

hmmm not really morals or anything, but i do try to write something meaningful in the sense of, like, female representation and gay representation. i tend to write the stories that i wish i could see, and especially the stories that i wish i'd had growing up. sometimes that leans into writing about messages or experiences that are really personal to the gay experience, or at least my gay experience. it's never super intentional, though, that just ends up being what i think is important to the story

My 2022 summary of art!

Blank

I haven't really been consistently posting my art anywhere for the past year or two, but I figured I might as well still do a summary of art since I like doing them.

I was reluctant to put any arpg stuff on here since that's generally just doodles, but I ended up having to since I was so busy with 3D modeling some months that I didn't have any other completed pieces from those months to show.

Full images and commentary below the cut! It's long.

JANUARY

Herman reading a book (about making soup)

I like this one bc of the pink color

FEBRUARY

Spring fern, my beloved

This was just going to be a quick doodle, but I ended up adding some rim lighting just cause

MARCH

Gale!

The sketch is from some point in 2021, but I didn't clean it up or color till later on in 2022 so I'm counting this drawing for this year lol

I realized that I haven't finished many drawings of her so I decided to fix that with this one.

APRIL

More Spring fern!

This time, surrounded by fern-like palm trees. Because ferns.

I liked choosing the colors for this one a lot

MAY

Whisper, but she's a merfolk instead of a scalie (Whisper is normally an axolotl)

In peak irony, one of my rare humanoid drawings was the only piece I felt like posting to my FA

I'm pretty sure this is the first time I actually tried doing mermay, so this gets to go on the list too (got 2 drawings in before I got bored and quit)

JUNE

Strudel flash prompt that I drew quickly

I wasn't digging the set of many sequential but connected prompts, which is why I ended up going for a different look.

Which reminds me, I don't think I've logged into toyhouse for a while now so there's probably a bunch of missed connections since I put a bunch of characters UFT. Will fix that later!

JULY

Ah, good ol' artfight month.

I liked how this drawing of several of Nul's forms turned out the best, so this drawing gets the spotlight for this month. (Nul and all variants belong to @kitsicles)

I had a stye in my better eye for a noteworthy part of this month, so I couldn't draw as well as I wanted to and ended up simplifying high effort pieces because of that.

AUGUST

Bobby the alchemist

bottom text

(didn't finish any noteworthy personal art, so arpg art goes here)

SEPTEMBER

GG Marzi on the run

bottom text

(again, no noteworthy personal art finished, so arpg it is)

OCTOBER

Software test of Rebelpaint, and I like it a lot. Exactly what I wanted!

Tbh I liked this a lot more than anything else I finished this month, so it gets to go here. Funny ocean creacher indeed.

NOVEMBER

Vix and Whisper

I was really busy, so my favorite thing was a meme drawover I did with some OCs. 500% cannon to their oc lore.

DECEMBER

I was initially going to put the deer, but remembered that I actually drew it last year and just colored it this year because I forgot about it until I was digging thru my files for mostly complete wips.

So instead, I'm putting this partially complete drawing of Ring I was working on

It's not done, but it's complete enough to count for this year imo.

---

For reading this far, you get to see a very incorrect coloration of blizz

Here's to a [hopefully] better 2023!

[justmehernthemoon]

hey kaitlyn! somehow we're already more than halfway through the month, isn't that wild? 2022 is slipping away right before our eyes. anyway, hope you have a great weekend!

also, I wanted to lyk that I'm going to be travelling a bit soon so hopefully I'll still be able to send you these but I'm not sure I'll have time/opportunity to check every day. got any big plans for the last two weeks of the year?

idk when I'll have time to watch yellowjackets but it's been on my list for forever, I'm sure I will eventually! personalized vans are so cute, those sound really special 😊 for me it's probably my rings, I have one that I got to make myself which was super cool and one of those little wave ones, buying it was basically the last fun thing I did before the pandemic. I only know english!! I've studied a bunch of languages, but none really stuck, I didn't start young enough to have a good head for languages unfortunately. I never got into euphoria either tbh, my friends were telling me about it and how wild it was kinda turned me off of it honestly. I agree the looks are iconic though 😂

questions for today!! what's one skill you wish you were good at? what's your favorite emoji? if you could talk to one person, alive or dead, who would you want to meet and what would you talk about?

-✨

hiiii ✨

it’s so weird how close to 2023 we are 🥴 i genuinely can’t believe it’s already nearly next year time moves so quickly but so slowly 🧍

no worries about that, just enjoy your travel!! i hope you have a smooth trip :-) I don’t have too much planned but one of my friends from high school will be around so i am excited to see her!! i visited her when i was in LA in October and i miss her so im really looking forward to it :)) also going to do an escape room with some friends and do some fun stuff on NYE :D plus christmas w my family we have breakfast and stuff so looking forward to thaaaat, what about you?? any fun plans? :-)

oh that ring sounds so cute!! and fun that you got to make it yourself omg love crafty stuff :)) I love rings they’re one of my favorite accessories i have so many but i always get worried wearing them bc I am such a fidgety person and worry i will lose them skskd

hmm I wish i was good at picking up languages just really wish i knew two well, or that i could sew and stuff it seems so useful 😭 and also wish i could draw well ! what about you?

sending you hugs and hopes for travels, happy sunday!! ♥️♥️

#holiday pal 2022 ♥️

[itsrottenwork]

Hi mj!! Secret Santa here!! Happy Friday!! May your weekend be a long and restful one, at that!!✨

Oooooo politics and communication!! Sending you all the luck for the rest of your college years!! Just based on that alone, I totally understand the hardships of it all!! Being in college is hard enough, but when it’s a major with a lot of complexities and nuance that can be brought to the table, I can only imagine lol!! What made you want to go into politics and communications, if you don’t mind me asking?

Awe, I’d love to see a picture of your succulents!! I bet they look great!! I’d send a picture of my cacti, but I can’t while on anon!! After we properly introduce ourselves, I can!! If you were able to, where would you like to travel next, given the opportunity? When I was in Italy, my friends and I were supposed to travel to the UK for spring break, but because of COVID spreading as fast as it did, our abroad program pulled us out, so we never got to go!! I’d love to go back to Europe and explore the places I never got to see!! I’d probably also go down to South America!!

The jingling reindeer ears? That’s so cute!! 🥺 I feel you about the whole crowded spaces at concerts!! Ever since the pandemic hit, it’s never really gotten back to normal in terms of the concert space!! Since the start of this year, I’ve been to so many concerts, yet, I’ve always tried to do my part in being as careful as I can when in those spaces!! Hopefully someone you enjoy tours in your city so you can attend!!

Love that!! I’ve been so behind on YouTube content!! Sometimes, I just have to be in the mood to watch them so I tend to fall behind when it comes to certain uploads rather quickly!! Ooooo cinnamon!! Anything apple cinnamon is so comforting, especially as a candle scent anytime of the year!!

More speed round questions!! What are three things you know you can’t live without?! Do you have a collection of any kind? Any cool knickknacks lol? If you can meet anyone in the world (dead or alive), who would it be and what would you ask them?🎄✨

this is my last year actually!! I'm in a one-year master's program, so it's only this year, but this is my last year of any sort of schooling, after this I'll be done done. I've always been interested in politics, bit of an idealist I am, and I also enjoy the more creative side, the writing and branding and whatnot, so yeah comms is the route that I see myself best able to contribute :)

here they are!! and also the little cat rock I painted a year or two ago. there's also some really little ones underneath the big one in the back but I couldn't get everyone in the one photo hehe

I always like to have travel plans set, even if they're way in the future, so I do have a few things planned already. my family is going to austria during winter break, and for spring break my friends and I are looking at doing a road trip around a whole bunch of different cities, but we're still working out the details. I'd love to travel somewhere outside of europe, but as I am currently in europe it's easiest to travel close by

what concerts have you seen this year? or if you've seen too many to list, what ones were your favorites? I don't think I've been to a concert since 2019 tbh, it's fun and I kinda miss the vibe but it's not something I ever really did a lot, so I don't mind not going too

speed round answers!! although I feel like I'm not very speedy when I answer them lol

three things: probably really basic answers but phone (for obvious reasons), water bottle (hydrate or die-drate baby), and keys (I really like having a physical totem of This Is Where I Live, one of the best gifts I ever got was when my friend gave me a key to her apartment when I moved in with her)

collections: I don't really collect anything I think? I take a lot of photos though, so I've got those hanging on my wall, and every year my friends from high school all get together in the exact same way and we take the same polaroid every summer, so I guess I have a collection of those haha

cool knickknacks: coolest knickknack on my shelf at the minute is the boomerang I painted when I was in australia, though my shelves here at uni are a bit sparse

meet anyone: I wish I could talk to my great grandfather, I never met him but the way my mom and grandparents talk about him, I'd want to be able to sit down with him and hear like, his whole life story basically

HI BABE I MISSED YOU ❤ I totally get not wanting to hyperfixate on something I do that with literally all the shows I watch like I'll finish them in two days and then be sad when it's over LOL. We're gonna need like an overview or like final thoughts from you when you do finish season 1 👀

YESSS GIYU SANEMI AND OBANAI SUPREMACY THE GIRLS THAT GET IT GET IT!! I'm so glad someone finally agrees with me on rengoku and uzui too 😭 like dont get me wrong I like them as characters like rengoku is a little cinnamon roll and uzui is hot but they're just not my fav. I think they're just not fucked up enough for us LOL I like my men with a little grit like there's gotta be at least one thing wrong with them lmaoo

YES ON MUZAN like before I started I thought I was gonna be all over him but then after what happened to rui I was like nah hes gotta go someone better murder this bitch 💀 I actually sobbed when rui passed on and his parents were waiting for him 🥺 hes definitely one of my favorite demons like that poor boy just wanted love and family even as a demon and thought he could only get that through fear, like I would have loved him regardless 😭

I HAVE TO KNOW IF ITS THE RUI FIGURE FROM BANPRESTO THATS LIKE 20 DOLLARS BC THAT WAS MY FIRST FIGURE TOO LMAOO 👀 it's so pretty and was one that I could actually afford lol, I'm eyeing up a giyu one rn but its 90 dollars 😭

Sooo I see you're taking requests and I kinda have two if you still have room 👉👈 the first one is for giyu and idk how to word the kink per say but like I feel like giyu would baby you and treat you like a princess in bed all while degrading you for it so ig like degradation with princess reader if that makes sense? And the second one is dark fic with forced submission with sanemi and add in knife kink if you want 👀 tbh they both could be dark fics with dc or nc like whatever you see fit 🥰 I saw that you already did a bunch and probably have alot of requests so only if you have room for two more!!

Dabi where do I even begin 😍 hes just my beautiful, broken, psychotic boy ❤ I swear I cant help but like people with sad backstories that made them fucked up 🥺 like no matter how bad, psychotic, and evil he is hes still my baby and I still think I could fix him LOL I dont even care that he would probably kill me in the process lmaoo. Like a part of me just wants to fix him and wants him to be happy because of everything hes been through and the other part of me would take him exactly how he is bc hes sexy all cruel and evil 🤷‍♀️ I would literally throw away all my morals for him in a heartbeat. Also his voice literally makes me feral he definitely has one of the best va's 🤤 so if you didn't know his power is fire which imo would come in handy for punishing purposes for like pain kinks and branding, not that I've fantasized about it or anything 👀 and since hes a villain he fits right in with dark fics and yandere stuff 🖤

The tiktoks omg I feel so blessed that you sent that obanai one it was so good 🤤

STOOOP THE SHAMPOO BOTTLES AND GIYU BEING SHY ABOUT IT OMG 😳

Speaking of tiktoks I FORGOT TO SAY IN MY LAST ASK THAT SINCE I WATCHED THE LEVI TIKTOKS YOU SENT I GOT MY FIRST COUPLE OF LEVI VIDS ON MY FYP!! I was like omg the influence of Doll 🤩 so here are some that I got on my fyp 😁

Okay so I was holding on to this ask because I didn’t want to lose the requests BUT I REMEMBERED THAT YOU HAVE A TAG!!

So with your requests, I’ll probably do the Giyuu one for kinktober (I’m thinking pillow princess for the kink!!) and then maybe the sanemi one in an upcoming writing event that I’m working on organizing!! ❤️

YES ITS THAT FIGURE I THINK, it’s like sepia toned?? I REALLY LIKE IT THOUGH

I’m actually trying to gather my funds to get my first spider (hopefully a beeg tarantula but I was also thinking a velvet spider) and I know when I get it I’m for sure naming it rui because thatS MY BABY

AHHH DABI YOUR MAN!! I read your cute lil love note paragraph to him and I LOVE that you love him so much! I have said recently that I will probably watch dabi content even if I don’t get into mha (because I did try one time and the first episode didn’t really grab me) BUT I have thought dabi was attractive from the start LETS WATCH THESE DABI TOKS

OOOOKAYYYY OH MY GOD HES VERY MUCH HOTTER IN ACTION 👁🫦👁🥵🥵🥵 girlie my love my baby angel I may have to fuck around and deep dive him, maybe I’ll drop some dabi content in the future?? But if you heard me say that no you didn’t

ALL THE TIKTOKS BAAAABE YOU KILLED ME YOU DID IM SCREAMING

I’m not sorry levi is on your fyp now ❤️I love him TOO MUCH

INOSUKE THE FERAL SON HES SO FUNNY TO ME.

Okay listen i don’t have a ton of TikToks to share with you this time I’ve not been on there regularly since we last talked but!!

[allsassnoclass]

hazel!! hi!! for the ask game, may I ask for, 19, 25, 40, 55, 68, hope your week is going wonderfully <33

hi myle!!! thanks for asking! hope your week is good too <3

19. Do you enjoy creating OCs or do you prefer to stick solely to canon characters? I do enjoy OCs! i find it really really satisfying to insert existing characters into aus and try to do that as much as possible, but when it makes sense to create ocs (extended family members, kids, nasty roommates) i have a lot of fun! characters are fun to create!!!!

25. What’s your favorite part of the writing process (worldbuilding, brainstorming/outlining, writing, editing, etc)? I'd say worldbuilding/brainstorming, probably! I really enjoy figuring out what's going on and putting the pieces together, and I absolutely love the moments where i get a good idea that fixes an issue or that i know readers will really love. i like gradually painting that picture of the world/story in my head. i also think i'm good at worldbuilding, and i like doing things i'm good at lol

40. What is your favorite world that you’ve created for a fic? omg i was thinking about this the other day! it's probably one of my askbox prompts tbh. you only get a glimpse of those worlds, but lots of them are really interesting, like the sorcerer/prince au! that's a world with magic and swords and stuff!!! also, the superhero world of this prompt fascinates me and i've been thinking of it more since i watched the batman over the weekend. i really love most of my worlds though, otherwise i don't think i would write in them!

55. Have you noticed any patterns in your fics?  Words/expressions that appear a lot, themes, common settings, etc? people blush in my fics more than they do in real life. they also breathe a lot lol i find myself describing how they're feeling based on their breath. there are a lot of words like "really" or "a little" or "kind of" or "just". it's not always in all of the fics but i've noticed that i tend to enjoy writing people eating together as a show of intimacy or relationship progression.

68. Are there any fics that influenced you to write the way you do? yeah a few! i think that everything i read influences me in some way, which is why it's good that i've been reading a lot of novels recently in different styles and genres instead of only reading the same authors/genres over and over. in this fandom i know that helen had an influence on me at the beginning, so make me a promise here tonight and if these walls could talk (they've seen way too many things) had an influence over me writing in this fandom and my early works, although my style has developed a lot differently now. last year at some point i read/reread a bunch of band of brothers fics, which reminded me of what fic is capable of i guess? i had been in this 5sos bubble for a long time and certain trends and styles are missing here that were very prevalent in that fandom (which makes sense given the different source materials) but the what things we have heard together series and A New Mode of Living were influential for me revamping my writing a bit

fanfiction writing asks

#ask #myle #fettuccinecaterpillar #thank you for asking <3 i need to go get ready for the day now lol #i forget that ask games take a long time to answer #i'm watching a soap opera too and they switch who is in the title credits depending on what plotline they're doing #and a character they just got rid of is on the credits today. flashbacks probably? #anyway that's a tangent i'm just thinking out loud #but based on who is in the credits i think i'll be fine not watching i don't think they'll do a plotline i'm super interested in

[theshinsun]

A-Z for honesty hour because I'm an asshole. :D

A - If I’m in love.

...yes. I never thought I would be again, I thought I’d been too hurt and jaded to feel this way again, but against all odds, I’m back to being 17 in full force.

B - Who the last person I talked to on the phone was.

The only one who ever calls me is my mother. And customers at work.

C - How long it’s been since I’ve kissed.

damn, almost a year now… not since my last relationship ended back in October-ish. even then, it was mostly casual pecks idk if we ever seriously made out tbh.

D - If I have a preference for boys or girls.

already answered (twice) but I'll keep going… I've got a definite preference of guys over girls, but I'm also a bi disaster and sometimes it doesn't make a lot of sense why this person is instantly attractive to me while that person isn't. certain aspects of femininity do appeal to me, but weirdly other aspects seem to be a turn-off and I can't always put my finger on what or why. ...that caveat does not apply to masculinity though, even if it's traditionally "masculine" features on a feminine-presenting individual I am 100% down every time.

E - How many holes I have in my ears.

two and a half? I got a third piercing at some point halfway up the lobe but it got infected and scarred over I think. the holes I do have are also stretched (I'm up to 0G now) and I've been meaning to get some more.

F - Give me any options, like ‘hot or cold?’

wasn't given any options, so I guess I'll go with hot or cold lol. I prefer hot, I'm one of those weirdos who loves summer because of the heat and I'll usually take a hot food/drink over a cold one.

G - The last person I said ‘I love you’ to.

my mom, over the phone just now.

H - The last person I hugged.

my roommate. we're not always super touchy-feely with each other but I've been feeling kind of down and she noticed.

I - The last time I felt jealous, and why.

I'm not usually a very jealous person, but the last time I really felt that way… I'd recently broken up with my ex, and they were sitting on someone else's lap and I… felt things. part of the reason I realized I may have made a mistake.

J - Are you insecure. What about?

K - What my full name is

already answered, my first and middle are Jacob Brooks, I'm not putting my last name out there sorry I don't trust like that.

L - If I have siblings.

already answered, I've got two, an older brother and a younger sister.

M - If I forgive betrayal.

I mean, I forgive but I don't forget, ya know? like I'll accept an apology if it's sincere and welcome the person back and never bring it up again, but I'm probably gonna be cautious around them in the future, and not trust them as readily as I would have before.  

N - If you want to know how I treat my friends.

if I call someone my friend it means I really feel close with them, and I treat my friends basically like my family. I try to always be honest and supportive of them, bc I love and appreciate them and just want them to be happy. 

O - If I like my school.

I love my school. the campus is beautiful, the teachers are fantastic, and I just love being there and learning and growing in my classes. I'm really sad this semester is probably going to be mostly online because I really feel like I belong in those studios and on that campus and I miss it.

P - What kind of music I like.

already answered, and it mostly boiled down to all over the fuckin place, so this time… band recommendations, here we go. no you have no say in this.

here, have a clump of random favorite bands off the top of my head: mother mother, bad suns, nothing but thieves, hozier, shearwater, the neighbourhood, steam powered giraffe, rainbow kitten surprise, the oh hellos, gregory alan isakov, caravan palace, mystery skulls, khai dreams, autoheart, muse, silversun pickups, thousand foot krutch, two door cinema club, twenty one pilots, blue october, jukebox the ghost

Q - What the last party I went to was, and when the next will be.

I'm not a partier at All, but I did have a bunch of friends over for the 4th (okay I say a bunch but it was like four people from our usual less-socially distant circle). I have no idea when the next get-together will be, it's kinda hard to plan those kinds of things lately.

R - For me to tell 10 of my curiosities.

the phrasing of this question is weird but I'm gonna assume it means things I'm curious about? let's go with that.

travel. I haven't ever been out of the country and I'd like to see other parts of the world at least at some point in my life.

tattoos. both getting them and learning to do them, it's a niche branch of art that I'm just fascinated by and I might like to do it as a career if I knew more about it.

same thing with being a florist. I'm really drawn to it as a concept and I'm super curious how it works, but I have no idea what kind of… qualifications and whatnot I'd need for that.

 surfing. I'm surrounded by the lifestyle and now kind of own a surfboard, I just want to know what the appeal is.

this may be a bit tmi, but I'm really curious what it's like to have a dick. I don't suppose I'll strictly ever know, but I still really want to… probably one of the biggest things to clue me in that I'm definitely trans is the literal penis envy ngl. 

I've always kind of had a fascination with the ocean, and I'd love to go like, scuba diving or something someday, to see it up close and personal.

I think everyone has the impulse thought of shaving their head at some point. maybe someday I will I don't quite have the balls to do it now.

I've gone this long in my life and never wielded a sword? a travesty. I don't pretend to have the grace to actually know how to use one, but I've like, never even held a real one and the idea interests me a lot.

this one might be slightly morbid curiosity, but I don't think I've ever been like, properly drunk or high before, like I've been tipsy but I've never been wasted, you know? the idea kind of scares me and I don't think I'm going to go out and remedy it, but it's still there, and even if I know it's not a good idea, I do still wonder what that's like.

same vein, maybe even a little darker, but I've got at least a little morbid curiosity about like, death and real danger. again, not planning to act on it At All, but the thought is still lurking in the back of my mind like what if…? you asked for honesty.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

S - 2 habits.

bit of a new habit, but I have a whole ritual of disinfecting groceries when I bring them home, and then disinfecting the door knobs and counters. I don't know if it'll persist after the pandemic is over, but it's already ingrained in me and I don't feel comfortable if I skip it or do  it differently.

I apologize for things that aren't my fault. it's such an instinct at this point to say "sorry" when I'm uncomfortable or anxious that it doesn't even register anymore, even when people tell me not to be sorry, I'm still gonna say it, sorry.

T - 5 things I love unconditionally.

already answered so here's 5 more

my family. if I haven't got my family I haven't got anything, we've got each others' backs and I won't turn on them for anything

my friends. same deal, I owe so much to my friends, I love them, and that won't change no matter what they decide to do or be.

sleep. I love sleep so much, even if it's just an involuntary nap, though for someone who loves it so much I sure don't get enough of it

spotify. I know it has problems, I know there are probably more streamlined/cheaper music streaming services out there, but at this point, I've sunk too much of my time and energy into this one and I'll never give it up

my ocs. I don't talk about them very much on this platform, but I have them, they're my children, and I love them even if they're assholes and never easy to write/draw. 

U - How many texts I send daily.

already answered, the number varies, and sometimes swings drastically between like, 5 and 35 on any given day.

V - 3 big dreams.

graduate art school. it's gonna be a serious undertaking and probably take several more years and a lot of loans at this point, but I'm still determined to get there someday.

someday I want to write a book. I know I've said that before on a different prompt, but it wouldn't be a list of dreams without including this one that I've held onto since childhood. 

this one's kind of vague, but someday… I want to not be afraid anymore. like I want to finally be in a state of mental/financial security so I can live my life without the fear of what's coming next. 

W - An idol.

it's probably really basic to list a youtuber, but I've still gotta go with Chase Ross. the guy was an inspiration and a major source of information and support for me early-on in my transition, and even watching him now I still want to approach life with the pure positive energy and confidence that he has. 

X - If I’ve done something I regret very much.

yes. a couple things, really… some of which I don't think I'll ever be able to make up for.

Y - If I like my town and why.

my current town? yeah, it's got its problems but it's also beautiful and full of life and art and unique energy and I miss the days before the Corona End Times when I could actually go out and enjoy it.

Z - Ask any question you want.

??? I did not receive any specification for this one, and given that I didn't skip even the duplicate answers and this is ridiculously long, this one I'm gonna SKIP.

[booasaur]

I know there's only the finale left but if they're continuing with Carina and Maya then going forward I wanna see her people on the show too. I watch Greys off and on but I'm caught up and I wannna see her and her brother in a scene on '19. Talking about their issues. I mean Vic's basically a Greys regular because of Jackson. And Ben but that makes sense coz he was actually on there so they can let us have this small thing. Otherwise I'm ready for them to relase Carina tbh she's been through IT

Noooo, I don’t want her released! I love her and don’t want to watch Grey’s. But yeah, of course, ideally we see a lot more of her in and her background in S19, including her brother. Have he and Maya even met? 

And another anon:

I'm staying with S19, but that's because I genuinely like the show and Maya is still my favorite character. She's incredibly flawed and very much hurts the people she cares about, but she's as fascinating as she is frustrating. The Maya/Carina relationship was a bonus for me because I thought the show wanted Maya/Jack. I very much prefer her with Carina but to date the relationship is so one-sided and Carina is almost too perfect. I have a feeling Maya's world is about to rocked though in 3x16.

Exactly! Well. I don’t always love the show, it’s just so much drama. But I did like it on its own and as long as Maya isn’t with Jack, I’ll watch. That is my true dealbreaker, not even Maya/Carina splitting up. I don’t know if Maya is my favorite in terms of personality (that might actually be Travis), but very early on they revealed she was bi so I’ve always kept an eye out and been interested in her character and sympathetic because of that. And until there was an actual ship and I got invested in her not messing up, it was easier to approach the show as something where people messed up constantly and I didn’t hate them for it. 

I don’t really know why they broke up Maya/Jack, tbh, and maybe the other anon is right and that’ll be the eventual endgame, but for now, I’ll happily accept as much Carina as we can get, and as you said, some more balance and depth. I don’t know how much time there’ll be in the finale but I can’t imagine there’ll be room for much except a flat breakup. Surely whatever’ll happen Maya has to expect? And it’s such a packed episode description, if it hadn’t been for Stefania in the cast list, I wouldn’t even have thought she’d be in it. I’ll continue my finale introspection below.

And another anon:

I know it’s hard to even speculate after what happened this week, but how do you think things are going to go down in the s19 finale? And as a part 2, how do you want them to go down since both will probably be different answers haha

Hmm, based on the preview and summary and full cast list, and the fact that it’s a season finale, I expect very little for them. I discussed a whole bunch of extremely varying outcomes with my friend, from “I don’t want Maya to be the one to get hurt and Carina is all worried and forgives her because that skips over all the work Maya has to do” to “I don’t want Maya to get hurt and DIE because Danielle cut her hair so drastically before quarantine even started so does that mean she won’t be on next season” but lol, I don’t think it’ll be either of those. 

I think they’ll mostly be separated into their actual jobs, Maya as captain and Carina off in Grey’s doing whatever. Although I dunno why an OB/GYN is needed when--oh, right, this was one of their full crossover events, so it’s basically two hours of both shows mixed together and we’ll be missing an important chunk of what would have been shown during Grey’s. So it’s not even going to get its proper resolution, unless they truly would not have been in the Grey’s ep. Damn. Well, maybe we can hope Maya’s part was written to be resolved during S19 and Grey’s would have been the medical doctory stuff and not much on the personal drama. I think we’ll probably see something like her reading a text from Carina or trying to write one and then maybe it’ll end with her going to her dad’s or mom’s and we’ll be left to wonder with what motive?

What I WANT is Maya going to therapy, talking things out, making up with her mom, and then of groveling to Carina for half an hour and admitting all the ways Carina’s been right and how very sorry she is and what she’s doing to change and then in a parallel of 3x07, when she was mean about the lasagna, offering Carina an out which Carina doesn’t take.

(1/11)Oh my gosh yesss I'm glad that you like long messages too because I talk way too much 😂 (And yeah about my friend and just hanging out w/ her more that's exactly what I was thinking 😂) It's actually kind of funny bc just yesterday I was hanging out at her house and her younger brother needed to go to Walmart and I was like 'I've been meaning to go to Walmart, I'll take you' and ofc since I have a bluetooth radio adapter the whole drive I had my Spotify going with some quality k-bops, lol

2)And as we were driving I noticed him kind of jamming and I was like 'Oh my god Mickey do you actually like this???' And he was Like 'yeah, these are some good bops 👍' I was shooketh. I had to go home before I had the chance to show him any music videos but he says he's open to watching some with me next time I see him. One way or another I'm going to turn someone in my social circle into a kpop fan you mark my words ☝ and then maybe we can team up and try to work on his sister some more 😂

3)I only started first getting into kpop last June so I'm still very new, but it's definitely super frustrating how so many ppl act like it's an inherently bad or cringey genre of music just bc it's kpop! The stigma is ridiculous! I also started out with BTS (lol) and since they're pretty popular in the US at least I was able to be like 'See, this isn't just a niche thing, lots of people know abt and like this group' but of course my dad still says 'Just cause it's popular doesn't make it good'

4)And I'm like? You're a band teacher, you of all people should understand that music doesn't have to be in your native language (or even have lyrics) in order for you to enjoy it, but go off I guess... It's the same with one of my college friends. They make fun of me for liking kpop but this is coming from some who still treats March 22nd (the day My Chemical Romance broke up) as a day of mourning. Like, no tea no shade no pink lemonade, MCR was a good band nothing wrong with liking them.

5)But like if you're 22 and you still haven't grown out of your emo phase do you really have room to pick on other people for their music taste?  🤷 Anyway that's the person who follows my main that I didn't want to know I had a kpop sb. I think I made it around July. Tbh it was pretty dead for most of 2018. But like I said I've started using it way more since I recently revealed that it exists, lol. Especially since that good good Astro cb 👏💗😩 But honestly Astro is such a blessing

6)Idk how I lived so long w/o them. When I first got into kpop I was planning on just sticking to BTS since the reaction to me being into kpop was so volatile. I was like 'I'm only into one group, ppl already are negative about me liking kpop so I'm just gonna stick to this and not become a full on multifandom fan' and then in Nov I accidentally let myself fall in love with Monsta X and that plan was foiled. And realizing I wasn't gonna be able to stick to just one anymore opened the floodgates

7)And I was like okay in that case, let's just start getting into *all groups* Lol. My story of getting into Astro was actually bc of my best friend's roommate (can you tell I have like one friend and my whole social circle kinda revolves around her? Lol) so this roommate when she heard me being sad about having no kpop friends was like 'oh hey, I'm kinda into kpop' and it turns out she didn't like very many groups and was one of the ppl who blah blah BTS is overrated, which ya know isn't ideal8)But I was just really desperate to have someone to talk about kpop with. And Astro was her favorite so I was like, okay I'll get into them so that I have something to talk about with her! So I started watching some videos and I fell in love with them pretty much instantly! And I was real excited bc #1 now I can talk about kpop with someone! And #2 this group is actually amazing? Bonus! ... And then they got in a big fight about their living conditions and the roommate ended up moving out RIP

9)So that didn't work out, lol (Your story about finding them during that internship sounds amazing though! Haha) But yeah, so this is my first cb too! And although I love them w/ my whole heart and would have loved to have them in my life even sooner what an amazing cb to be your first! The concept was wonderful, the album was excellent, the visuals were to *die* for. They worked so hard and I'm so proud of them and I'm so happy we got to see their work come to fruition and get them a win 🤧🤧

10)The dance practices though? You're so right omg 💗 Me and my Rocky bias *fully* understand 😂 All of them are such good dancers?? I never fail to be impressed. Of course you know who I always end up watching tho 👀 lol (̶i̶f̶ ̶I̶ ̶w̶a̶s̶ ̶h̶a̶l̶f̶ ̶a̶s̶ ̶p̶r̶e̶t̶t̶y̶ ̶a̶s̶ ̶R̶o̶c̶k̶y̶'̶s̶ ̶f̶o̶o̶t̶w̶o̶r̶k̶ ̶I̶ ̶w̶o̶u̶l̶d̶ ̶b̶e̶ ̶a̶l̶m̶o̶s̶t̶ ̶a̶s̶ ̶p̶r̶e̶t̶t̶y̶ ̶a̶s̶ ̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶e̶y̶e̶s̶.̶.̶.̶)̶ ̶ I also love how at the end they always pause all dramatic for a minute and then start screaming 😂

11)It's like? Amazing talent *and* dorky personalities? What more could you ask for? Lol. In regard to your last question though Unfortunately I also won't be able to see them 😔 I live in the smack middle of the US and since they're only going to coasts all of the venues are way too far away to get to. Esp since it's the school year and I can't skip class to drive cross country for a concert much as I'd like to (Holy lord I talked over twice as much?? Why am I like this?) Talk again soon! -ASA

Okay SO I’m very sorry I haven’t had the time to answer everything until now bc I’ve been busy studying for midterms and also I was a lil trashy today since my uni closed bc of freezing rain so I slept in but I’m glad that FINALLY everything got sent like damn tumblr you really don’t want us making friends huh. 

Yessssss I love the feeling of seeing someone else also get into the same interests! I’ve been pretty lucky in the sense that I grew up around mostly other asian americans, so kpop was never something that was considered super “weird,” like some people were into it and some weren’t but even if you weren’t you still would’ve been familiar with the more popular groups from when you were younger. Even now, I have a bunch of friends also into kpop (one of them is even my roommate) so tbh I was definitely the one in my friend group late to the party aha. Even my university hosts kpop nights at our bar and I’m pretty sure we have a kpop dance team as well? So tbh if I met someone new there’s probably like a 50% chance they’re into kpop or at least listen casually. 

Tbh I used to be a little bit judgy too but moreso because of the obscene amount of money I’ve seen some of my friends spend (no joke one of my friends has spent probably like $500+ on Loona stuff in the past month and a half and another friend bought like 5 copies of the same album for herself like damn idk how do you have that much money).

I also really don’t like it when people bash other people’s music tastes, since I feel like it’s something so personal? Idk but for a long time I used to be really self conscious about sharing my music with other people and even now I feel like that sometimes. For me after getting into BTS I kind of expected to get really into other groups since I was in Korea anyway and I was already listening to a lot of other artists casually. For me it started with NU’EST (fell for them immediately at the same concert that I saw Astro at) and then after was Astro, and then I just started slowly getting into other groups after that (even though I haven’t totally been able to get into Got7′s music they’re SO funny and I just kinda fell for their personalities  you know). 

I honestly think that they did such a wonderful job with this comeback too! I like seeing their concept evolve and mature but they’re not straying too far from their original cute concept so I feel like it’s a nice middle ground that’s very unique to them, you feel? Also I feel like the visuals especially and the execution of the whole plant concept was just done so well?? Even my friend who’s not in kpop was like “k idk who they are but that was the prettiest music video I’ve ever seen”. What are your favourite eras and songs? For me I’d have to say either the Spring Up or Baby era BUT right now my favourite song is probably Again/Should’ve Held On though tbh my mood and my tastes change like every few weeks loool. 

I have no idea why I tend to be most attracted to the dances rather than vocals or rap (maybe has to do with the fact that it’s something I’ve always wished I could do but have always been bad at lmao). But Astro’s stood out to me for the exact same reason! I just thought it was so funny seeing them all break character at the end because you really get to see how hard their choreos are and you get a glimpse of their personalities like damn, how can you not stan these dummies?

That’s really unfortunate that you won’t get to see them either :/ They’re also coming to the closest city to me but it’s on a Tuesday, but I *hypothetically* looked up flight prices and tried to see if I could get away with just missing a day of classes if I flew back in the middle of the night since I have some friends who did the same thing and drove down to Buffalo but I seem to have underestimated the size of New York State LMAO. But apparently my university’s too far from the airport so it’s “not realistic” (and also I’m hella broke from travelling to Taiwan and Japan while I was in Korea but that’s a minor issue ig). I hope we do both get a chance to see them live though! Who knows, after the success of this comeback I’m expecting a lot more cbs and world tours out of them ;)

Heyyy I'm sick right now 😣 and have nothing to do except be really nosy so here's a bunch of those ask questions lol (feel free to skip any you don't wanna answer)

(this is my fav question because I always get caught by my mum or brothers when performing lady gaga and foo fighters songs in my kitchen, you'd think id have learned by now but I can't help it. Some un-asked for advice earphones+unhealthy volume+Queen March of the black Queen+morning kitchen performance = the recipe to having a great day) 19. Favorite song to to belt out at the top of your lungs when you're alone?

32. Most embarrassing thing your parents have ever caught you doing? (If it helps my parents caught my friend trying to duct tape me to my bedroom ceiling when we were like 16/17)

10. Best thing to say in an elevator full of strangers? (I'd say hail hydra and hope for the best)

59. A night out with a bunch of friends in public or a night in with one friend having deep conversations?

92. What's something you would get arrested for? (For me just sheer stupidity like doing something illegal genuinely by accident)

9. Worst way to break up a fight?

83. If you could learn to do anything right now what would it be? (I'd learn a dying language if I had the brain/will power)

96. Do you tend to make decisions based on the past present or future? (I tend to avoid decision making or at least put it off cuz I don't trust my brain not to make a stupid ass decision)

(I think this question is really cool, I'd prob have some kind of book themed teaparty and I'd like to say a nerf war but I'm hypothetically 100 sooo) 100. How would you spend your 100th birthday? 🎂

I hope you're having a good day/night and if not try march of the black queen, lots of love 💛💛💛 byyeeee

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TYPING THE QUESTIONS OUT! I'm on my phone right now so it makes it hard to answer asks like these because I have to keep going back and forth to my camera roll for the questions otherwise 😂

I also love all of your answers so much. I hope you get well soon and I don't mind you being nosy!

19. Ok recently? Thrill of first love from Falsettos. Idk why the last bit is just POWERFUL. Honestly though I will belt out any song if I'm home alone. Grace Kelly by Mika is another fave to belt. I also listen to music way too loud (gaga is great too)

32. HMMM this one is kinda hard? Nothing comes to mind. However, one time at a party full of strangers when I was really young a rainbow appeared at the other end of a field and I thought it'd be fun to try chase the end... my entire family witnessed it and never let me live it down.

10. OH MY GOD. Saying Hail Hydra would be iconic. I tend to avoid elevators because I'm scared of them but everytime I make a joke about it breaking down I get laughs 😂

59. I'm not a big drinker and don't like going out tbh so nights in are 100% my thing. Right now because covid is still a think I discord call my friends a lot and we tend to do game nights and end up in deep convos (literally happened last night)

92. Probably the same as you? I'd like accidentally go on someone's property without knowing or something dumb like that.

9. Hmmmm not sure. I guess trying to fight the fight would be pretty bad.

83. Learn Welsh fully to a first language standard because I miss being able to speak it as well as I used to. Also maybe learn Spanish and learn how to cook really really well.

96. This one is tough and changes and always depends on the situation. When it came to job hunting last month I was considering the present and past but mainly thinking future. When it comes to say arranging meeting people I always think future. I try to plan ahead but also live in the now more, which I struggle with.

100. This one is fun! If I could do ANYTHING I would get my besties around and like have a movie day and stuff if not I'd just spend it with my family and those close to me?

Thank you!!! 💖💖

#long post #i enjoyed these so much
