My dad is literally reverend and the whole family helps with his church/community/it's-kinda-weird-but-bear-with-me, but I've never been so invested in the bible fandom like I am now that I found your work, bless you, you're officially my dad's favorite person <3
Also, fun little story: My parents are divorced, I went back to living with my dad when I was nine, and before that I lived with my mom in another state. We went to church (that is, I went to the church with the dad of my mom's boyfriend) and they were catholic I think ?? So yeah, I was at the church A LOT, I think I went to Sunday School once, it was pretty boring and I never went to it again (also I made too many questions so. UHM).
So, one of my hobbies back then was like. Reading the Bible... straight from genesis. But I read it like it was a storybook, so I would mark the page where I stopped and would keep reading the next time an adult left their Bible around (also, they were so reckless about their Bibles, like, for people who called it Holy Book).
Unfortunately I never finished reading it, but maybe I will, who knows. Also, this only made me realize how batshit insane I was as a child, like, I did just so many stuff that was weird but not really weird, you know ? Like, I want to do these things again. I pushed a bunch of kids to the other side of a room, made them fall, stood up in a plastic table and said “I'M THE QUEEN OF KINDERGARTEN” once and I was so real for that.
Anyways, au revoir ! Hope I managed to entertain you with some bits and pieces of my childhood shenanigans, stay safe and stuff
THE REVEREND?

story time: best friend’s best friend.
Tumblr media
the fic: best friend’s best friend | m (kth)
!! spoiler alert !!
i didn’t think i would be doing a story time tbh.
mainly because i want to keep the secrecy of why certain characters act a certain way to myself so that my readers would be free to interpret it however they like.
but i don’t think i can keep my mouth shut. this is possibly the very first long, elaborated fic i’ve written. and 23.9k words is huge for me. i think my last longest fic is 18k. not to mention, i took 4-5 days writing this fic non stop. i didn’t lose sleep over it but i ghosted everyone and take breaks only to eat and sleep.
background.
i don’t remember what triggered the idea but what i know is, i wanted to write about two best friends who are so tightly knit that no even time and space can break their friendship. but then once they reunite, there’s bound to be differences and they’re bound to grow into different but familiar people. 
ironically, the fic diverges from that plot and focuses on how oc whose walls have grown high enough to touch the skies, navigate through the change as well as the exposure to the new people who are almost as close as she is to jeongguk. and since jeongguk is always including her in his plans, she’s forced to interact with jeongguk’s friends who aren’t the typical fake people she associate herself with.
she approached jennie, jisoo, lisa and rose because they’re daughters of rich families but over time, she realized she didn’t mind hanging out with them, but she wouldn’t exactly call them best friends. they consider her theirs though. that’s just how she is, she keeps a distance with everyone and once someone pushed past that boundary, they’ll be her forever person. first it was jeongguk and then taehyung. but the others (hoseok, yoongi, and the girls) follow closely by. in the distant future, they’ll also be her favorite people.
characters.
i. oc
i think what made it so special for me is that i finally took that leap to write an oc that wouldn’t fit your minimum standard of a decent human. she’s below that. she’s self-aware and knows what her words could do to someone but she does it either way. but her redeemable trait (as every main character should have) is that she doesn’t do it for herself but for what she thinks is best, and often, for someone she cares about. and she can still be dead wrong or absolutely right for making doing what she did though.
she’s also the kind of person that’ll stare karma in the face and a second later, brush it off and move forward to mend whatever karma ruined for her. you know, the kind of person that keeps moving no matter what yet somehow is stuck in a certain space in time (particularly her want for revenge against her stepmom which illustrates her being stuck in the Kang mansion, in her play room where the abuse would happen - this isn’t explicitly mentioned in the fic).
i think she’s what you call a morally grey character who’s neither wholly bad or wholly good. but i’m not sure; all i’m sure is, i want to continue writing characters like oc who doesn’t fit your standard of nice, friendly and ‘guaranteed to receive everyone’s pity if something bad happens to them’ like what main characters are supposed to be (or maybe nice characters were so 2020?).
and at the end, she said she didn’t want to have any connection with her dad anymore but things don’t always go her way. taehyung can start slowly persuading her to go to dinners with her dad with the excuse that he wants to get to know his father-in-law and oc would follow taehyung’s whims because he’s her soft spot.
some may have noticed that oc isn’t as expressive of her love for taehyung. but i’d like to think i did well to portray her love through her actions. like how she stood her ground in front of taehyung’s mom and she also trusts taehyung to know he wouldn’t break up with her because of the mom’s opposition. (even if the mom isn’t really opposed to their relationship bc oc didn’t have much after losing her legitimacy to the inheritance, but more about maintaining a good relationship with oc’s fiancee’s company).
and in the college arc, oc is scared of ruining her ‘cool’ image in front of taehyung bc she already really really likes him and his opinion is one of the few she really cares about. maybe even more than jeongguk’s.
so yeah, she’d do ridiculous things for jeongguk like climb a whole ass mountain and trek the amazon but she’d do realistic things for taehyung to be with him. this is just a small contradiction i toss in to show the types of love she has for her best friend and her boyfriend.
ii. jeongguk
as for jeongguk, he kind of got slapped with reality. he’s been trying to get oc and taehyung to get along by including them in every hang out but it backfired after he realized there are lines that he’s comfortable with having between oc and taehyung - that kinda disappear or change after oc and taehyung get together.
now, he’s the third wheel. before, oc treated taehyung as the third wheel and jeongguk being jeongguk (bfbf-context) didn’t notice that and was comfortable with where they are before oc and taehyung got together.
in my head, oc and taehyung told jeongguk to get lost at some point because he’s always around whenever they’re supposed to have their “date”. it sucks but it is what it is lmao.
iii. yoojin and yena ; the mean girls
yoojin actually didn’t like yoojung because their names sound similar. so that’s why she picks on the latter and yena got influenced by yoojung. later on, yoojin grew distant with oc and yena bc she’s jealous that oc and yena are getting closer (after yena constantly contacted oc to check up on her). oc realizes yena isn’t so bad so that’s why yena was also a bridesmaid while yoojin wasn’t even invited to oc’s wedding lol.
iv. yoojung
she’s a character that was necessary to show oc’s shortcomings but also plus points. it’s true that she feels a bit inferior for her lack of fortune compared to the people she wants to befriend. after she starts working and start hanging out with better people, she slowly gets over her inferiority complex. she and jeongguk met at a client’s meeting and they hit it off from there.
v. jimin
he’s pan and sleeps with everything with two legs. he and yoongi were on and off fwb’s but are still friends even after they stopped. they’re both just not interested in a relationship.
vi. thank you
for those who have read the fic and somehow found their way to here; thank you. i wish you all the most wonderful day ahead. please stay safe and take care <3

Answer the first 25 questions or else
o shit ok first 25 questions LETS DO IT this is probably gonna be long so lets just put this under the cut
1. Do you ever wish you were someone else? 
Oh absolutely like all the time. Maybe not someone specific but I wish I was a bit... like.. how do i put it.. more handsome? and Id like to not drop things as soon as I get interested in something else? but i cant really control that. youve probably noticed if uve been here a while, nonny, but when I get into a new thing, its like the old thing never existed for me and i dont? really like that about myself. okay anyway this was long lets move on
2. What is your full name? 
Well, I havent picked a middle name yet? or middle names, I might go for two depending on what sounds good. My original choice was Elias Aidan Theodore H****ey (Im just censoring my last name bc uhhhhh Im Paranoid) but now Im considering Silas as a first name, and I havent picked a middle name to go with it yet
3. How old are you and how old do you get mistaken for? 
I’m 18, and Im not really sure? I used to think I looked older than I am but some people have told me I look younger and idrk what to believe
4. Have you ever dyed your hair? 
Uhh not the whole thing. Moms given me highlights before, but idk if that counts. Id like to though
5. What’s your eye color? 
ig technically hazel but mostly brown
6. Your opinion about your body and how comfortable you are with it 
LOL i hate it sm. Id like to look more like a guy. Honestly I dont usually think about it but when I do Im v uncomfortable
7. Do you have any tattoos or piercings? 
no but tattoos are dope!! I wouldnt get any myself but theyre so cool
8. What would you say is your best quality? 
Man nonny u gotta,, hit me with the hard questions dontcha
Hmmm... Id like to think my sense of humour?
9. What are you really bad at? 
surprisingly this ones stumped me a bit uhhh all i can come up with are jokingly serious answers like taking care of myself or something. I guess... seeing things through? Like for example often times when I write something, I have to do it in one sitting or Ill never get it done
10. What talent do you wish you had? 
Well the thing is like... most things that can be considered “talents” are skills a lot of people can learn? so if I wished I had a “talent”, itd be something that Id be able to work towards if I were that persistent, so really itd be more of a skill right? Hmm.. I guess I wish I was a bit better at singing, but Ive practiced basically my entire life and Im not bad but I could be better
11. Are you nice to everyone? 
I try to be! I hope it works
12. What do you think about the most? 
Hmm.. good question. Its usually about something I mightve screwed up recently, if anything at all. Usually Im just kinda? blank? the only thing going through there is elevator music lmao
13. Things you like/dislike about yourself 
Hmm.. I already said my sense of humour for a thing I like, soo... I guess my music taste? I try to listen to anything at least once. as for dislike uhhh Im a bit impulsive, I dont really think about things before I do them.
14. What is your least favorite word? 
Uhh tbh?? the f word. not fuck but like the slur one. the n words not great either.
15. What is your favorite word? 
I like saying cuck, that ones fun
16. Are you more like your mom or your dad? 
Definitely dad. we both keep to ourselves most of the time and we have a really similar sense of humour
17. Would you ever smile at a stranger? 
Oh for sure! I try to! Well like I wont go out of my way to but hey if I make eye contact with someone might as well
18. A reason you’ve lied to someone 
Usually so that I dont get in trouble? or if I wanna cancel plans but think my reason is kinda shitty (like if I just wanna be alone or something, but i have plans, i might tell them i have an appointment i forgot about)
19. Are you lying about anything right now? 
Uhhmm... no, dont think so. I try to usually be honest about things
20. Have you kissed someone older than you? 
Nope!
21. Do you believe in love at first sight? 
Not really. If thats something you believe then like whatever floats your boat, but I think love comes more from trying to understand someone, which usually comes with time.
22. Do you believe in soulmates? 
Oh yeah, I think so, but not in the sense that theres a such thing as The One. I think its more of like... you have multiple throughout your lifetime, yknow? Like Ive met a few people who Id consider “soulmates”. Plus I dont think it has to be romantic either? Like I have one person I consider a soulmate platonically and theyre like one of my best friends
23. Are looks important? 
I mean like not really? I dont think so.
24. Opinion on relationship age differences 
Uhhhh.. well, for example, at 18, Id date a 17 year old. 16 year old is a different story in my mind, and I wouldnt date a 16 year old at the age I am now. That would make me uncomfortable because like... 18 is a legal adult, and I, as an 18 year old, view 16 year olds as kids. A 17 year old is still a minor, yeah, but i view them more as... I don’t want to say equals, but that feels like the best word for it? Does any of that make sense? Long story short, where I am right now, the biggest age gap I could tolerate would be a year. Same in the opposite direction, actually. Id date a 19 year old, but 20 feels like an entirely different area that Im not really comfortable with. I hope I phrased this properly because I tried my best to
25. Would you date someone off the Internet? 
Like be in an online relationship? Ive done it before so yeah
thank u for all the questions!! sorry it took me so long to answer them whoops. ok anyway love u nonny happy pride!!

@misterbitches im finally responding to your posts lol sorry babes 😬
i think ive heard of tamara but i havent read that specific thing youre talking about. but yeah the power structures behind anti-asian racism are not perpetuated by black ppl def. and white supremacy has a greater effect on black ppl than asian ppl bc of ya know... history. thats some rlly interesting insight tho bc like the antiblackness in the asian community is seemingly often presented as a perfect parallel to anti-asian racism in the black community. 
moving on from depressing stuff .. the dubbing of the untamed is by different ppl which is why it fucked me up when i found out. like that wasnt their actual voices tf ??! both of the leads were idols so that probably was part of why they got the role lol but they’re also talented.
im sorry your college experience was like that it sounds like hell. 
ik i should say something if I feel i should but like i always think “maybe theres something im missing i dont want to talk out my ass” idk just how i am 
yesss im a large proponent of curating your own spaces i use the block button liberally. also just ignoring ppl who have meaningless opinions i disagree with. like i used to get myself in a tizzy in my head when i saw someone say something bad about something i like trying to justify to myself how theyre wrong. now im just like idc lol. 
i live in a city with a lot of out of state tourists and i just get to clean up after them for $11/hr 🙃
im def guilty of sometimes believing whatever leftist analysis i dee on the tl i really need to do start reading more theory/history but ive become illiterate. i learned about the stuff your referring to in a class last year but like im not gonna get into all that its just very complex.
atots is very romantic as a pisces it makes me want to die. ive never heard that story about SOPHIE thats lovely.
lol i lowkey tend to look at vague spoilers before watching any bl bc im picky and dont want to waste my time on something shitty its worked pretty well for me so far. your past obsession w/ lady gaga is understandable tbh. but yeah ive been waiting for all this to blow up in sibs face. i have no idea whats gonna happen tomorrow in the next ep. like obv gene is gonna forgive him but im excited to see his grovel. yeah i like up’s acting even tho his crying isnt my favorite bc he has great expressions. kao is eh. he was similarily as meh in uwma tho so i wasnt expecting much from him. i think tharn’s actor (mew) got so much worse about that pausing thing in season 2 it was terribleee. also i think tyoe’s actor (mew) is good but thats mostly bc i think he’s gorgeous. 
i dont think mhok and aey are stepbrothers but idk for sure. im thinking mhok is either a childhood friend or aey’s sisters bf. oh yeah fuck his sister. its probably partly bc hes gay but his father mentioned him being evil which ig can be referring to him being gay but idk. 
i liked color rush it had a unique premise. oooh i saw mr heart and to my star too. i think you already know my wbl thoughts so yeah ... i love shu yi and his dad needs to fuck off. i think the first season flowed much better than the current one. 
aw i feel like everyone like uwma for winteam but i love the main couple. fluke had to cry multiple times every episode and he did wonderfully. lol hes not the pale one who died tho that actor is earth/cooheart. he also cries a lot tho. fluke and earth are actually both openly gay irl love that. 
ah so its like the giver and the receiver. thats so stupid. makes me think of this political philosopher i read recently who thinks of marriage as inherently oppressive to women. which like .. word !!
yeah i used to read rpf but like it just doesnt align with my morals i cant. even if i dont think theyre real it still feels weird. lol i just watch from afar as stans think fanservice and queerbaiting mean these ppl are actually together lmao.
i just want gay ppl to be employed. if theyre selling the fetishization of gay men to girls then the gays need a cut of the check. the replacing a straight relationship with two men is why im fine when a bl has a homophobia storyline bc that gives it less straight vibes lmao. 
i still think about that scene in itsay where the gay one tries on his moms bra bc he thinks that what the other dude would want. and then has a breakdown bc thats not him. WOW art !! the girl was def utilized well in itsay i loved her. i havent seen my engineer but she sounds lovely. tiffy my love ... OKAY DONE
