I’m just gonna start by saying that I’ve already typed this whole thing out then my old as time computer died again! Anywho there’s tears in my eyes rn but I just hope I remember what I wrote in the first place😂

Hi Пчёлка! Which apparently translates into bee/little bee affectionate??? Bees are cute and you’re cute so I though I’d give it a try!

I’ve seen painted denim jackets before and every one of them looks so cool. I’ve always wanted a denim jacket though I do have quite a few cool jackets already.

How dare tumblr be homophobic against my half-assed flower paintings 😠 (Although I did see you were able to post I normally which is weird)

Fustercluck is stolen directly from my favourite sci-fi book.

Do you have a favourite book? Doesn’t even have to be for the plot it could be just for the aesthetic.

Love, just because just because it’s isn’t it my cup of tea doesn’t mean it can’t be yours! I’d never judge you for it, plus you’re not the first person to like it after I gave them a recommendation (you’re the second one but that’s not the point lol)

AS for Wild West Ronance all I’m saying is that for a brief period the Victorian era and the Wild West existed at the same time. Imagine... Nancy goes with her father who is attending to business across sea Canada/America doesn’t matter, they get there and he leaves Nancy alone for a bit so she’s decides to take a walk (bringing a shot gun in case) so she like sitting somewhere in a full Victorian dress reading and holding a shot gun, enter stage left COWBOY Robin!!! Hat, boots, and horse, who sees this beautiful lady readin AND HOLDING A GUN! That’s all I have to say thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Ah yes, Alvvays, my sweet, sweet Canadian band WHO STILL HASN’T RELEASED CANADIAN TOUR DATES(I may be a bit salty about that)

All three of those music recs are lovely!

99 Luftballons will always be bright red and childhood memories, Twinkle Lights is giving electric purple and sleepovers at your friend house in summer without A/C but also driving around in the middle of summer, Atom is bright orange (like max’s hair, or cheese) and also jumping on the trampoline.

YES! I am a Paramore fan they’re my second favourite band. This Is Why sounds like the colour maroon but with a bit of blue added in, not enough for it to be purple but enough the darken and mute the red.

One last thing about music but both Paramore and Alvvays are releasing new music for the first time since 2017 (Very Online Guy has been stuck in my head since it came out and I may be going a bit crazy) but all that with MOSS just being released means I’m being very musically fed. Blue rev comes out in 12 days and I am HYPED!

I actually had to look at up what a bradford pear was, here we have so many cottonwood trees I always feel so bad for people with a cotton allergy.

I guess that is a bit gay of me, speaking of gay I need more piercings! Yeah, I have decided on the hair I just have to go pick up the dye!

Do you have any pets? I have many but I also don’t want to be the weird one

As for the mutual thing, that’s for me to know and for you to (possibly) figure out.

A bit of a Victorian sign off today!

Sincerely and entirely yours

-el

Hello sweetheart! I’m so sorry your computer is being homophobic. Damn those Boomers and old people 🤪

I think I’m going to melt at that nickname. Little bee? 🥺 I love bees so much. That just made my brain go ahdjskjdkeksk. You think I’m cute? Yet again I say lord have mercy on my poor gay heart. I just know you are adorable as hell.

They’re so much fun to paint! Maybe one day I could paint one for you, if you’d like. Jackets are the coolest! Maybe it’s just because I’m bisexual, but layers!!! Jackets, button ups, flannels my beloved. I have a particular love for denim jackets tho

Oh, what book? I fucking love sci-fi dude

Oh lord, I love a lot of books, it’s hard to pick favorites. Ask me to pick a favorite child, why don’t you? You’ve found another subject I don’t know how to shut up about. But in all seriousness, The Hunger Games and The Hobbit were both very important to middle school me and I love them still very much. Also The Giver. I haven’t read as much recently because school gets in the way, but I loved “Leah On the Offbeat” by Becky Albertalli (god I related so much to Leah it’s not even funny) and “Crier’s War” by Nina Varela (enemies to lovers my beloved) are both recentish reads that I adored! How about you? Any favorite books?

Oh I’m aware! I say it all in jest, I swear <33

OH OH OH YOU ARE SO RIGHT. I see your cowboy Robin and I raise you: Outlaw Robin. Featuring Victorian Nancy with her gun seeing this swaggering cowgirl who speaks multiple languages and has a Secret Backstory roll into town, then seeing her wanted poster and deciding to try a little bounty hunting while also being hopelessly intrigued by her 👀 Is this AU sitting in my WIPs? I will confirm nothing—

El, darlin’, I could listen to you describe music in colors all day. That is so cool, and they sound so accurate!!! Atom is so orange, yes, and your imagery for Twinkle Lights? Astounding.

That makes so much sense! I love it so much already and I legitimately cannot wait for an album from them. I have been obsessed since I first heard The Only Exception. Last Hope remains one of my favorite songs in the history of ever and I WILL belt it full volume any chance I get.

!!!!! I’m so excited!!! I will have to listen to it all. We really are being musically spoiled this year and I am loving every second of it.

They look pretty, smell terrible, and are my worst seasonal allergy 💔 My parents both have trouble with the cottonwoods but thus far I’ve somehow ended up lucky enough not to inherit that one lol

Piercings YES, those are so hot and cool. I don’t have any yet, but I’ve been dying to finally get my ears pierced. I’m hoping to have a good chance to do it over fall break or something

Oh gosh, if you count with me now, I would say no because college, but back home is a farm so we have MANY. Dogs, cats, horses, goats, donkeys, you name it. No cows tho. I’ve always wanted a fluffy cow 😂 Do you have pets? I’m happy to hear about them <33

Darn, but incredibly fair! The mystery makes it fun, I am simply curious. Tell me one thing, perhaps? Are you from the US? If you’re not comfortable sharing/want to keep the mystery, that’s cool too of course!

Affectionately yours,

- Max/Lo

#elmax anon #I also have to go to bed because I have an exam in the morning #wish me luck!

Requested Inspired Baby Shower Dresses

Must admit this was hard because a baby shower is meant to be a carefree, smooth, modest affair celebrating a child who is about to be brought in this world, Whilst also giving sympathies to the mother who is not going to sleep for several months whilst enjoying being puked over and changing dirty nappies. The question is though...Do you dress up and outshine the mother to be as it`s all about her or do you think fk it and go for it? Many things to consider when going to a baby shower. So lets begin..

Boohoo High Neck Long Sleeve Floral Midi Dress: £18.75. Must admit about halfway through I did forget what hippie clothes looked like, So apologies if some of these items don`t look like what you are after. I did look for grey tye dye maxi dresses but unfortunately no one has any in stock or at the moment. But don`t fear because we have plenty on display beginning with this one from Boohoo. The colours and pattern drew me to this dress, I like how they combined it with floral prints and lines..The dress is a midi dress and you may think this would be for older people, No this can be for anyone if you style it right. You can style this dress with or without a belt if you wish and then pair it with some white or black heels, I wouldn`t add accessories as the dress is quite busy. You would look classy yet edgy with the black added in (Didn`t even realise this would be classed as edgy just now until I noticed that). What`s more is that you can wear for this another event like a party or a social summer event, Very versatile and very cool.

PrettyLittleThing TERRACOTTA POLKA DOT TEA DRESS: £25. You can see where I got lost between the lines of boho and hippie. I love this one personally and as it says in the name it says `Tea`, So of course it`s suitable for a spot of tea with your friend, or just a casual stroll or a baby shower. Again I see this as a baby shower dress because it fits in with the theme of cute, modest and classy, I know youngsters these days wanna fit in with the trends and everything but girl you will, You will in this dress. What`s more is that it`s versatile so you can take it on holiday or take it to your mums. Styling wise you can pair with some gold heels and a flower in your hair for that flamenco feel and a brown bag with some gold accents, If your going for a summer stroll you could pair these with sandals or white trainers, Sunnies and a bright big smile.

PrettyLittleThing DUSTY PINK POLKA DOT BARDOT TIE WAIST SHIFT DRESS: £18, I saw this dress whilst searching and was like yeah that`s the one. I`ve seen many bloggers rave about this. I`ve seen to of imagined a baby shower in summer time but these could be just as good indoors where you would want to make a impression and feel good about yourself whilst also trying to stay on trend. This dress brings a pop of colour and a sense of fun with it`s polka dots, I know it`s not very hippie but it`s along those lines. I would style this with white heels and layered gold necklaces with some maybe floral earrings or gold hoops.

ASOS DESIGN wrap front midi dress with cutout in floral print: £48, I feel like i`ve gone off track with this one the more I look at it. Your probably thinking girl why did you fish up my nans old curtains - Yeah, I`m wondering the same thing but you can see why I chose it...Because it has hippie accents. Balloon sleeves and neon colours all on trend at the moment, This may not be everyones cup of tea but there is ways to alter it. If you felt too mumsy in it, You could always take it up to a mini dress. In the dress you would be sure to stand out amongst the crowd. I just don`t think the length would suit you (I dunno if your into that) But if not I would deffo take it up.

MissGuided rust stripe ruffle mini tea dress: £25. Another tea dress, Again much like the ones from PLT this fits in with the baby shower theme, You don`t want your nan pulling down your dress because it`s too small do you? You don`t want your mum coming over and trying to the flesh you have on show. The length, the colour, The fit I think is perfect for a girl of your age. The ruffles effect give it that definition and more bounce..More bounce then the baby.

Topshop Geo Border Tie Neck Dress: £49. Out of all the midi dresses on display here today, I would pick this one if it was me going to a baby shower. I know green may not be everyones favourite colour but hear me out. This one is a much more subtle version of the orange and pink version, it`s more classy with no accents, it`s more demure and something your nan would finally approve of. With this one I would mix it with some edgyness, So I would add a black belt with some black heels or black boots whatever your preference with a black bag and some gold earrings. I know £49 may be expensive but imagine the photos and compliments you would be getting.

MissGuided black strappy milkmaid hook eye midi dress: £25. First of all trying to find a edgy dress was extremely difficult because all I was thinking of when it came to edgy was the colour black, I know theirs other colours but black just came to mind and then the other trouble I was facing was that most of these edgy dresses are for nights out and parties which are hardly inappropiate for a baby shower, We needed to keep it moderate and formal without getting our boobs, ass, leg or anything else out. Now I know on first glance this may not be your cup of tea but keep on reading because it would work out, First of all I have saved a selection of the same dress but in different styles, So this one with no accents or features, it`s very plain and modest, One that is more structured and formal here, One with sleeves here. That`s not all though, To style this up without getting a glare from your nan or looking as though your going on a night out I would style this dress up with a long kimono, If you haven`t seen these before go check them out because they are hot at the moment, Not just for the beach they can be for any occassion now and they come in different prints, colours, styles and lengths. Most notably River Island, Topshop and PrettyLittleThing do the best ones IMO.

Boohoo Petite Snake Print Woven Long Sleeve Skater Dress: £16.50. When has snake print ever gone off trend? It`s been around for years and for many more years to come. This is a tea dress style as you can see so you still got the young feel to it, but you`ve also got the edgyness with the print.

Boohoo 3/4 Angel Sleeve Crew Neck Midi Dress: £15. I literally could not find any edgy dresses without it being over the top, But then I came across this one from Boohoo. I love the flares on this dress, Gives it that definition and sass, This dress is structed and fitted and would fit your body like a glove. It doesn`t come in just black though, it also comes in red and white.

⌈ ana de armas / female [she/her] ⌋ ━━ look its LILY EVANS. you know, the ( canon ) character from harry potter! in our world they’re SOLEIL “SUNNY” CASTILLO, a twenty five year old bisexual working as a kindergarten teacher. they have a rep for being compassionate & iron willed ; we all agree [ autumn leaves by ed sheeran ] should play when they walk in. they ( have ) regained ( all ) of their real memories.

idk what’s up with me but i’ve been on a real big mom kick recently and what better mom to play than the one who gave up everything so her kid could live ?? sighs, gets me all emo thinking about it.

this here is lily potter, former gryffindor, member of the order of the phoenix, and mum to the boy who lived. she’s always been known for her utmost intelligence, her fiery heart, and the compassion that she shows everyone in the beginning. she’s also known for her ‘take no shit’ attitude, and was a prefect as well as head girl during her time at hogwarts. could she be classified as a goody two shoes ?? possibly. but then again, she did end up finding herself mixed into james potter’s group of ridiculous friends -- otherwise known as the people she would forever consider to be her family.

so, i know that the last time we ever see lily in the franchise is when harry is holding the resurrection stone, and she promises to remain by his side until the very end. now, while some have interpreted this to have been her actually there, i’ve always considered it more of an echo of lily ?? however, the scene where harry and voldemort first dual in the goblet of fire, where lily and james sprout from the force of the spells hitting one another, was absolutely lily’s spirit, so the last memory that lily will have is helping her child get out of the graveyard on that dreary june evening.

in port vista, lily potter became sunny castillo, a gentle yet fierce young woman who has a passion for helping others. she was placed into port vista as a fifteen year old girl, living with single mom elsie, in midtown. they were pretty well off, definitely not wealthy by any means, but they always had enough to keep them sustained with a little left over for free spending. sunny made a lot of her own money babysitting neighborhood children, which is what sparked her interest in working with younger kids. when she was seventeen, she got a part time job at a daycare, working after school to help look over the little ones of port vista, and while that kept her happy for a while, it never truly satisfied that internal feeling that she had that longed for the child she’d risked everything for out of pure love.

after graduating from high school, sunny went to school to be a teacher, and has been working at port vista elementary as a kindergarten teacher for about a year and a half now. she has her own apartment ( a really nice one, too ) and a large, orange cat named fox. only recently has lily awoken from the curse, much to her own confusion. honestly, she just wants to know how she ended up in america of all places. oh, she also wants to know how she’s alive. she hasn’t quite come to realize that this was a curse, though ?? so she hasn’t thought to search for anyone else yet. god, i can’t wait for her to meet the rest of her family. i’ll cry like a baby. she’ll cry like a baby. it’ll be one big ass tear fest all around.

OH and just so you all know, sunny’s hair is naturally bright red like lily evans’ hair, but as a teenager she began to bleach it and dye it different colors, which is why it currently looks like a brown-fade into blonde sort of style. she’ll eventually go back to her original hair color via magic, though. so like...please pretend with me that ana de armas is a redhead ?? thank u i love yall.

My Soulmate Has to be an Asshole

Doyoung X Reader (Gender Neutral)

Writer: Jaime

Summary: Soulmate AU in which when one soulmate dyes their hair, it changes the color of the other soulmate’s hair.

Masterlist

To say you were upset when you woke up would be an understatement. When you went to bed the night before, you expected to get up the next morning with the same color hair as when you fell asleep, but no, apparently that was too much to ask for. Because when you walked into the bathroom to get ready for the day and looked in the mirror, you were greeted with purple hair. Purple hair! Your eye twitched just a bit as you realized your soulmate had dyed their hair yet again. The first few years of your life had been fine; you’d lived on with your natural hair color, but then someone must have changed within your soulmate because suddenly you woke up with your hair a shade of brown that you’d never had before. That was fine, though, at least it was a nice, natural color that wouldn’t get you in too much trouble with any school officials or, you know, your parents, but then sometime last year you woke up with—surprise!—orange hair. And that’s when you started resenting your soulmate. Just a bit. You’d had to go to class with orange hair, and, just your luck, was served detention for dyeing your hair such an outlandish color. Even with the explanation that it wasn’t your fault, you had to sit there in silence for an entire week. You weren’t really looking forward to explaining the new change to your boss later today or your friends, for that matter. Their soulmates didn’t dye their hair bright colors!

So, with one last silent curse at your soulmate, you got ready and stuffed your hair into a hat before leaving your apartment to get to the class you had that morning. You spent the entire journey planning on how to avoid your friends until you could pick up a box of black hair dye from the convenience store. You figured that someone so obsessed with bright colors would be pissed at suddenly having black hair, and honestly all you wanted right now was some revenge. You’d heard stories of some people dyeing their hair rainbow in retaliation, but you assumed your soulmate would actually appreciate that. So, no, they would be waking up to a head of natural—and boring in their opinion probably—black hair. And when you finally met them, they better square up because you were not going to be happy. Not after all they put you. You were still a bit bitter about the whole detention situation. That had been the one disciplinary action on your entire record! You wouldn’t let that stand, even if you met your soulmate twenty years from now. You were known to hold a grudge, and a grudge you would hold.

“Hey, nice hat,” one of the kids in your class complimented as you sat down beside them. “Is it new?”

“No, I just haven’t had an excuse to wear it until now,” you answered lowly. “Woke up today with a surprise from my soulmate.”

“Ah,” he replied in understanding, “I see. How bad is it?”

“It’s pretty bad.” You leaned in so you could continue talking as the professor entered the room. “It’s purple.”

He winced empathetically when he heard exactly what color you had been blessed with that morning. “Could be worse, though,” he offered with a shrug. “My friend once dyed his hair bright red. I feel sorry for his soulmate.”

“Yikes.”

“Tell me about it. And another friend dyes his hair practically every two months.”

“What a terrible person.”

“I know, right? I don’t know what possesses him to do it, honestly. I get the feeling his soulmate will actually murder him when they finally meet.”

“I know I would.”

He let out a laugh before focusing on the professor who had begun to speak. You, too, turned your attention to the lesson and took notes as diligently as you could while still fuming from the events of the morning. Honestly you hoped you met your soulmate soon so you could yell at them because who even had purple hair? You’d had a hard time finding a job with the whole orange hair thing, and you didn’t want to think of what your boss would think about you suddenly having purple hair, even if it wasn’t your fault. One could only be so understanding before the rules and regulations forced their hand. You were pretty sure the restaurant you worked for had pretty strict rules about hair color, which was ridiculous considering the whole soulmate thing. Like where did they get off? Not everyone had normal soulmates! Some people were unfortunately stuck with soulmates who liked dyeing their hair strange colors! You let out a groan as your class ended, meaning you would have to face the music with your employer.

“Work?” your classmate guessed with a sympathetic smile.

“Yep. And they aren’t so tolerant with bright hair colors.”

“Good luck, bro.”

“Thanks. I’ll see you around.”

You waved goodbye to each other before going your separate ways, him probably off to his dorm and you off to work. You mentally prepared yourself for the tongue lashing you were going to receive when you took off the hat and passed by your boss. You wondered if it was too late to get that job at Taco Bell… you hated the smell of it in there, but you’d be willing for the money. After you got fired here, you were going to be desperate for one just to get food on the table. Your roommate had a habit of eating literally everything in sight, and he enjoyed eating his way through your paycheck. You slowly changed into your uniform, loitering by your employee locker to stall until your shift started so you wouldn’t have to take your hat off just yet. You glared enviously at all your co-workers with normal hair. Why couldn’t you be so lucky?

“Y/N,” your boss called almost immediately after you ducked out of the employee changing room, “could you come here for a moment? What happened with your hair?”

“Uh, y’know, I really wish I knew, but unfortunately it was like this when I woke up.”

You nervously tugged at the silvery-purple locks, desperately trying to avoid eye contact with the woman who signed your paycheck every two weeks. She eyed your hair in disappointment, but ultimately there was nothing she could do. It wasn’t really your fault if your soulmate dyed their hair. Unfortunately it was something everyone had to deal with, so she just gave you a look and sent you on your way. You didn’t need to be told twice. Free from any scolding, you quickly scampered to your post at the hostess stand and smiled brightly at all the customers who came in looking for a nice meal. Oh man, when you got your hands on your soulmate…

“Jeffrey!”

A crash and loud curse could be heard as your roommate scrambled to his feet to flee from your wrath. He knew that snappy tone, and he knew to stay far away from you when you spoke in it. Unfortunately for him, you were determined and on the war path. You wrapped your arms around his waist and tugged him down with you as you plopped down on the couch. He looked up at you with wide eyes, offering you an innocent smile when he saw just how angry you were; he hoped he wasn’t the cause of your anger because that usually didn’t turn out too great for him.

“So, uh, rough day at work?”

You wordlessly yanked off your hat, displaying your newly colored tresses to him, and he threw back his head to laugh at your misery.

“Oh my god, that’s so great!”

“Jaehyun, this is not funny,” you whined as you smacked his arm. “You don’t have to deal with stuff like this!”

He continued to laugh but maneuvered you so you were tucked into his side comfortably; usually you wouldn’t get too mad at him if he was cuddling you. You two would often act touchy with each other, probably more than most roommates should, but when you were stressed college students, you would take all the comfort you could get, and until you guys met your soulmates, that comfort would just come from each other. He rubbed your arm in an attempt to sooth you as his laughter finally died down.

“I’m sorry, dude, I just couldn’t help it,” he apologized with a small snicker. “It’s funny how your soulmate is never content with a natural hair color like me.”

“Dyeing your hair blonde isn’t much better, Jeffrey,” you grumbled while curling into him some more. “Pretty sure your soulmate was still upset with you for that.”

“Probably. But at least their hair wasn’t purple when they woke up.”

“I’ll kill them. I really will.”

“Right, okay, sweetheart.”

“I will!” You pouted up at him and poked his side. “You’re going to help, right?”

“Oh, you know me. I’m a lover, not a fighter.”

“You literally almost punched an old woman for taking the last box of pizza rolls at the grocery store last week.”

“I am a growing boy! I need them more than her!”

“Note to self: make sure my soulmate has the last box of pizza rolls when you two meet.”

“Oh, hell, if they do, bitch better square up!”

You laughed and shook your head fondly at your roommate. When you two first moved in, you weren’t sure how well it was going to work out. It was your first time living away from home, and to have your first roommate be a guy? Yeah, you were terrified. But you two bonded over a severe love of food and drama, and now you were practically inseparable. It really helped when it came time for post Valentine’s Day sales on chocolate. You guys loaded up with as much candy you could carry and stashed them all over the apartment to get you guys through until the post Halloween sales. It really was like a match made in heaven. If you hadn’t woken up with your orange hair after Jaehyun had dyed his blonde, you would have been sure you were soulmates. But, alas, fate had not deemed you two to spend eternity together. So you were left plotting your soulmate’s murder with Jaehyun.

“What if they’re cute?” he asked later that night as you two started to drift off. “Could you really kill such a fine piece of ass?”

“I don’t care if they’re Beyoncé,” you replied with a snort. “They’re going to pay for what they’ve done.”

“…Could you really kill Beyoncé?” he whispered in horror as if you’d just said you had murdered a puppy.

“…Okay, so maybe I’ll let it slide if they’re Beyoncé.” There was no way in hell you could ever even raise your voice at Beyoncé, let alone kill her. “Anyone else, though, and they’re catching these hands.”

“Let me just say that Jay-Z is so lucky to have Beyoncé in his life,” Jaehyun said drowsily as he tugged you tighter to his chest. “That man… he gets to wake up every morning to the presence of an actual goddess.”

You yawned right in his face and blinked back the few tears that had formed from the sheer intensity of the action. “I get to wake up to the presence of an actual pig.”

He laughed sleepily and blew a raspberry into the inside of your elbow. “A cute pig, though.”

“Eh, I guess.”

You smiled at your best friend and fell asleep happy, finally getting over the anger you felt when looking in the mirror that morning. If there was one thing Jaehyun was good for, it was making you feel better when you were in a shitty mood. It was like a superpower really, but you wouldn’t ever tell him because it wasn’t fair that he had another one besides inhaling food at the speed of light. It was probably better for everyone if you just kept this one to yourself. His soulmate was going to be very lucky when they finally met Jaehyun; the kid could cook a mean meal, eat his own weight in junk food, and could honestly achieve world peace with his smile. All you got was some dick who thought purple hair was cool.

“What about him?”

“Jeffrey, his hair is blonde.”

You and Jaehyun were eating ice cream in the park one fine day, people watching and having a blast pointing out people who could possibly be their friend’s soulmate. So far, Jaehyun had a solid five people, and you had a solid none. Apparently no one shared your fun hair color; who would’ve thought?

“How can you tell?” he asked as he took a spoonful of your treat. “He’s wearing that ridiculous fedora.”

“Look at his sideburns.”

“Ew, look at them.” He gagged dramatically before patting your leg. “I’m pretty sure I just threw up a bit in my mouth.”

“Congrats. You’re disgusting.”

“Listen, I paid for your ice cream. I could very well ruin your whole life right now if I wanted to.” He mimicked smacking the cone from her hand. “One little flick of my wrist and BOOM! Entire life shatters to pieces onto the pavement right before your eyes.”

“…I’ve been living with a sociopath this entire time without knowing,” you told him as you tried to shield your ice cream from the monster beside you. “Oh my god, I’ve been cuddling with a sociopath this entire time! I gave you my food,” you finished in a horrified whisper.

“Yeah you better watch your back.”

He wrapped an arm around you as you both went back to eating your ice cream, all threats forgotten as they enjoyed the nice weather. It had been raining the past few weeks, and you two had finally left the nest you’d made for yourselves to chase the sunshine. It was the first day either of you had been outside without being completely covered in what seemed like at least a month. You admired how his hair seemed almost golden in the light from the sun, and he twirled his fingers through your purple hair, which you’d both actually grown fond of.

“Oh, hey, there’s Mark,” you pointed out lazily.

You watched the younger boy talk excitedly to his friend as the pair drew closer to where you were lounging on the bench. Both Mark and his friend wore snapbacks, a change from Mark’s usual choice of beanies. Guess the coming of spring meant he needed to mix it up from his winter wardrobe. You and Jaehyun lifted your hands to wave to the boy who eagerly waved back and changed his path so he could make his way over to where you two were soaking up the sun.

“Hey, Mark,” Jaehyun greeted. “You guys taking advantage of the break in rain?”

“Doyoung and I were actually heading to meet up with Johnny and Winwin to get some coffee. Do you guys want to join?”

“Oh, ew, gross,” you said in mock disgust. “Spending time with that giant? I mean, I love Winwin, but having to be around Johnny?” You exchanged a look with Jaehyun and laughed. “Count us in.”

The two of you stood from the bench and threw away the napkins soaked with melted ice cream before joining Mark and his friend. You looked at the tall boy curiously and nudged Mark with your elbow.

“Are you going to introduce us to your friend or…?”

“Oh, right! Guys, this is Doyoung. He just moved in with Taeil. Doyoung, this is Jaehyun and Y/N. They’re roommates.”

You shook his hand and smiled. “It’s nice to meet you, Doyoung. Tell me, has Ten tried to bring you a cake yet? If not, look out for that. Johnny told me he never washes his hands before baking.” You blinked when you noticed he was staring at your hair, probably not even listening to what you were saying. “Oh, yeah, sorry about this. I woke up last month with purple hair. It really isn’t as bad as when my soulmate decided to dye his hair orange.”

“Have you met them?” he blurted out as he was finally shaken from whatever trance he’d been in before. “Have you met your soulmate yet?”

“Ha, nope!” Jaehyun answered for you. “They’re still plotting how to get back at them for all this.”

“You don’t like it?”

“I got detention for the whole orange hair thing,” you told him with a frown. “That was the only thing I’d ever gotten in trouble for.”

He laughed nervously and gave Mark a wide-eyed look. The other boy just grinned and shrugged. “It’s all you, man,” he said to Doyoung with a grin.

“What? Am I missing something here?”

Doyoung slowly reached up to take off his hat, revealing his hair to be the exact color as yours. You kind of just stood there, staring at him slack jawed. This was your soulmate? The cute, lanky dude Mark just happened to be friends with? Oh, hell, now you couldn’t kill him! You sighed and extended your arm to lightly punch Doyoung’s.

“Why do you have to be cute?” you whined. “Now I can’t be angry with you for my hair!”

“You think I’m cute?”

“That does not make it any less annoying that you dyed our hair such strange colors, sir. You have a lot of explaining to do.”

“Okay, but you think I’m cute?”

“My hair is purple!”

“Hey, it looks cute on you! And you obviously think it looks cute on me!”

“That isn’t the point! Square up, Doyoung, because I am not living the rest of my life with these outlandish colors you have a thing for!”

“Whoa, wait, can’t we compromise!”

“A week of detention!”

“Alright, okay, I can respect tha—ow!”

The two of you were laughing as you chased Doyoung, your soulmate, around the park, pretending to still be angry for the whole orange and purple hair thing. To be honest, you didn’t have any room to feel anger, not with how happy you were to have actually found the person you were going to spend the rest of your life with. Hell, you’d let him dye his hair green if it meant you could spend eternity looking at that bunny smile of his. You’d spent the last few years cursing your unknown soulmate, but now that you’d found him, you’d spend the next many loving him, crazy hair and all.

Note

All those asks that you havent answered yet

1: when you have cereal, do you have more milk than cereal or more cereal than milk? More cereal. I’m lactose intolerant so I try to use just enough milk that I’m not eating dry cereal. Dry cereal is a different snack.

2: do you like the feeling of cold air on your cheeks on a wintery day? No.

3: what random objects do you use to bookmark your books? Whatever is close. Usually random coupons.

4: how do you take your coffee/tea? Coffee with creamer, tea on its own. Unless it’s chai. I like chai with oat milk or vanilla creamer.

5: are you self-conscious of your smile? I used to be, but now I love smiling for the camera, at strangers, pretty much all the time. But I also spent a lot of time practicing and figuring out how to smile without looking weird when I was 9 and super self conscious.

6: do you keep plants? Yes! I have a plant that might be a Kalanchoe that I’ve managed to keep alive for a few years, despite always forgetting to water it and 3 butt succulents (living stones).

7: do you name your plants? Nope. Although I do refer to the butts as “The Butts”.

8: what artistic medium do you use to express your feelings? I write, mostly.

9: do you like singing/humming to yourself? Yes. I tend to sing song if I’m talking to myself.

10: do you sleep on your back, side, or stomach? Side.

12: what’s your favorite planet? Jupiter! Even though that’s where boys go to get more stupider.

13: what’s something that made you smile today? I found some pictures of my mom in college and we look really similar.

18: tell us about something dumb/funny you did that has since gone down in history between you and your friends and is always brought up. So one time my BF and I went on a road trip up the oregon coast and then to Seattle. He was getting tired on our Seattle leg of the journey so we swapped and I drove for a while. I drive a ford and he drives a subaru. We were in the subaru, and I went to put it in drive, but instead turned the windshield wipers on full blast. Out of habit, I pulled down on it, since that’s where the gear shift is in my truck. His is not. I have yet to live it down.

19: do you keep a journal? what do you write/draw/ in it? I do! I have a planner for dates and scheduling stuff, a Bullet Journal that I keep my mood tracker and habit tracker and various lists in, a gratitude log, and my ‘write about your day and your feelings’ journal. I just filled my last one, and now I get to start a new one!

20: what’s your favorite eye color? Blue.

21: talk about your favorite bag, the one that’s been to hell and back with you and that you love to pieces. I have a 5.11 backpack that I used in college, and then used to travel, and now I’m currently using it as my roller derby bag. It’s super versatile. And I can put patches and pins on it.

23: what’s your favorite thing to do on lazy days where you have 0 obligations? Knit and watch TV.

24: is there someone out there you would trust with every single one of your secrets? My counselor.

25: what’s the weirdest place you’ve ever broken into? An old abandoned mansion. I was on a ride along and the cop I was with wanted to check for “juvenile delinquents.”

26: what are the shoes you’ve had for forever and wear with every single outfit? My pink double tongue low top converse.

27: what’s your favorite bubblegum flavor? I feel like there was a strawberry watermelon hubba bubba flavor I loved as a kid, but maybe I imagined it.

29: what’s something really cute that one of your friends does and is totally endearing? Pspsps’s at literally every cat they see.

30: think of it: have you ever been truly scared? Yes.

31: what is your opinion of socks? do you like wearing weird socks? do you sleep with socks? do you confine yourself to white sock hell? really, just talk about socks. I love socks. I’ve knitted myself four pairs, and I love wearing disney socks and I just love socks.

32: tell us a story of something that happened to you after 3AM when you were with friends. My friends and I are boring old people and we are asleep at 3 am.

34: tell us about the stuffed animal you kept as a kid. what is it called? what does it look like? do you still keep it? A stuffed rabbit. Their name is ‘ruggy bunny’. It’s made from chenille. I still have them and as a full fledged adult sleep with them (and all my other squishy friends).

35: do you like stationary and pretty pens and so on? do you use them often? So. Fucking. Much. I love Sakura Jelly Roll pens and washi tape and stickers and felt tip pens and ink joy pens and I love the crayola Take Note line and anything from The Happy Planner. I love it all so much.

36: which band’s sound would fit your mood right now? Deee-Lite or The The

37: do you like keeping your room messy or clean? I like keeping it clean. I used to say my room always needed to be Teen Vogue ready, back when Teen Vogue would have pics of some famous girl in her bedroom on the last page.

38: tell us about your pet peeves! Other drivers.

39: what color do you wear the most? I usually wear quite a few different colors, especially in the summer.

40: think of a piece of jewelry you own: what’s it’s story? does it have any meaning to you? My uncle (who’s not my uncle, just a close family friend) bought me a diamond necklace when I was 10, because he said my first diamond shouldn’t be from a boy, so that way it would just be another piece of jewelry, and not my ‘first diamond.’ In hindsight, that was kind of a cool thing to do, because now I don’t feel like I have to keep or get rid of jewelry just because of who I associate it with. If it’s a nice piece, it’s a nice piece. It’s not my first diamond.

41: what’s the last book you remember really, really loving? Outlander. It’s so well researched, and it’s got political intrigue and smut but I never felt like I was being talked down to or treated like a dumb reader.

43: who was the last person you gazed at the stars with? My boyfriend.

44: when was the last time you remember feeling completely serene and at peace with everything? Not any time within recent memory.

50: what’s an odd thing you collect? Taxidermy and furs.

51: think of a person. what song do you associate with them? Joe Jacksons “Is She Really Going Out With Him?”

52: what are your favorite memes of the year so far? Anything Baby Yoda.

53: have you ever watched the rocky horror picture show? heathers? beetlejuice? pulp fiction? what do you think of them? I’ve seen RHPS, and been to a midnight showing. I love it. I’ve also seen Beetlejuice, it’s not my fave, but it’s fun.

54: who’s the last person you saw with a true look of sadness on their face? My boyfriend when we discovered our favorite pho place closed.

55: what’s the most dramatic thing you’ve ever done to prove a point? Everything I do is a dramatic thing to prove a point.

56: what are some things you find endearing in people? Laughs! I love peoples laughs.

57: go listen to bohemian rhapsody. how did it make you feel? did you dramatically reenact the lyrics? So good. I’ve been drinking, and I sang it quietly to myself with all the voices.

Naruto Shippuden E130-134 Notes

Finally done with the unbearable bullshit that was Jiraiya’s backstory.

So Naruto only has half of the Nine-Tails inside him? That’s fucking stupid and yet another needless retcon. Who is the other half sealed in?

The Nine-Tails was summoned? I thought the tailed beasts just roamed unless they were sealed inside a jinchuriki.

So is this actual Madara or is it Obito?

I like the start of the new OP music, the rest feels kinda basic though.

So does Konan have her soul or chakra sealed into one of those sheets of paper? If not, how has she gotten rid of her body and replaced it with paper?

Pain is so damn badass. What amazing voice-work.

So Nagato wants to use tailed beasts to create atomic bombs? Um, how does that even work?

Does Jiraiya fucking think for himself at all?

Oooh, the good animation is about to start.

So what fucking animal is that thing that Nagato summoned?

Damn, I wish we had gotten to see Naruto summon a toad like this.

This toad’s ungraceful gimmick has gotten annoying.

Gimmicks in general are annoying.

Why is Jiraiya still keeping his hands together? Didn’t he already end the summoning? Don’t tell me he’s starting all over again.

I find it hard to believe that Jiraiya is fast enough to outrun that bird.

Also, why doesn’t he use his Raging Lion’s Mane Jutsu to bind it? It worked on the chameleon. Or use his fire or earth style? Or just trap it in another toad throat? Or summon another toad? It’s not like he seemed to be worried about having to restart the summoning before. At least once the bird is gone, he can take some time to do the summoning and recuperate in peace.

And why does this summon take so long? What exactly differentiates it from any other summon?

What the fuck is wrong with this bird’s legs?

There you go, Jiraiya. Use that fire style.

How the hell was that rhino fast, Jiraiya? Especially after seeing the bird.

Nice work, Gamaken.

Jiraiya, how about you just fucking send Gamaken back? He’s exhausted and wounded. You can summon another toad later. It’s pretty fucked up that you just ditched him while he was injured before,

There you go, Jiraiya. Give the guy a break.

Nah, seriously, why was it so hard to summon Ma and Pa? It didn’t take that long to summon Gamabunta. What makes them so special?

Ma and Pa’s dynamic is exhausting.

Ma’s tongue is fucking terrifying. Why does that exist? And why is it smiling!?

Wait, does Sage Mode make Jiraiya grow a beard? What the fuck? Why? What is this, Teen Wolf?

So this dude is only one of Pain’s six paths, right?

And there are two more.

Is now really the time for comic relief?

Holy fuck, Ma and Pa are annoying.

Fried Pain? Alright, I’ll give you that one. Good one, Ma.

I mean, this is just my two cents. I know that Naruto is gonna learn perfect Sage Mode and Jiraiya is only able to enter Sage Mode by fusing Ma and Pa to him. Personally, I think it should be the other way around. Naruto’s whole shtick is being clever and diligent enough to find creative solutions to perform strong jutsu (i.e. using shadow clones to perform the Rasengan) so it would make sense that a novice like him wouldn’t be able to enter Sage Mode, so instead he’d use fuse Ma and Pa to him. A technique that no one would have expected. Honestly, I just think it’s dumb that Jiraiya, an honest-to-god Sage with years of experience, can’t enter Sage Mode without Ma and Pa but a braindead teenager who barely knows any sage techniques can enter Sage Mode just fine.

Also, why hasn’t Jiraiya pulled out the Rasengan? Hell, now that he’s in Sage Mode, wouldn’t he be able to pull off a Giant Rasengan?

Nevermind, I immediately regret saying that. Now I have to watch the stupid, sudden, ridiculous, and exhausting BS that is the “Massive Rasengan.”

Way to be redudant, Kishi.

So this path is basically Samehada?

Why did Jiraiya suddenly grow shark teeth?

I really don’t want to look at Jiraiya’s hands and feet like that.

So Jiraiya’s slowly falling farther and farther into Sage Mode?

That’s one hell of a song.

I don’t like how the Shadow Clone Jutsu just became some basic jutsu that practically everyone knows.

That’s a pretty lame illusion. Doesn’t have much aesthetic. The jutsu itself is pretty cool though.

I hate that we’ve gotten to the point where losing an arm is considered a basic injury.

Tsunade definitely wants to hit that.

Tbh, Tsunade’s scene had no point but to essentially emotionally manipulate the audience.

Aaand now we’re just straight up shooting missiles. You guys remember when this show was about ninjas?

Tbh, I was kinda let down by Sage Mode. Jiraiya’s Sage Mode anyways. I mean sure, it felt like a power up, but not really like a gamechanger. Maybe it’s just cuz he’s facing the Rinnegan.

That path should have just died in the acid. No reason for him to really jump out, meta-wise.

Jiraiya finally looks his age.

If I was Jiraiya, I would have just assumed that Nagato and Yahiko performed a fusion.

If you wanna join Pain’s emo band, you have to dye your hair bright orange and get some ugly ass piercings.

What a fucking coincidence that Nagato just happened to use the corpse of someone Jiraiya remembers killing.

Jiraiya should have died of blood loss from that bleeding fucking stump a long time ago.

Jiraiya’s monologue was actually compelling until the prophecy shit reared its ugly head back up.

Naruto’s a child of prophecy, because fuck literally all of the themes you ever wrote into your story.

Jiraiya, just fucking die already. Why do death scenes always have to be dragged out so goddamn long? It’s honestly ridiculous.

And of course fucking everything has to be about Naruto, even Jiraiya’s death.

So two Sannin dead so far.

Still pissed that Madara is even a character. It’s bullshit that a guy like Pain is taking orders from anyone.

How would the secret have even saved Jiraiya? Like, the secret is just that Nagato was using people’s corpses as the six paths, right? Or am I missing something? I don’t think that would really change anything, but then again, it’s almost midnight and I’m exhausted.

Ugh, I have to deal with Karin again.

Naruto, why are you fucking talking to yourself?

Kiba, I don’t think you’re supposed to ride dogs.

Yet another flashback to something we’ve already seen.

I feel like Yuri Lowenthal has been high all throughout Part 2.

OMG, am i gonna get to see Kisame beat the crap out of Karin!? Yes pls.

Please kill her, Kisame.

Madara’s getting his own music so I’m assuming he’s gonna beat some ass.

Yes! Beat Naruto’s ass, Tobidara!

These swords are stupidly big.

Tbh, if Shino had been in command of the Sasuke Rescue Mission, the whole thing would have been solved in five minutes.

Can’t Shino just use his insects to know where Tobi is at all times? Or Hinata use her Byakugan?

[BB#3] Trunkful of Colors

“Hoooooo-ly shit. Look who it is, back from the freakin’ dead.” An imposing figure, large to the point where it’d be wise to take up two seats as opposed to one, sits down at the stool in front of Benny. “It’s only been a month. You miss me that bad?” the figure says, a dozen decibels higher than the bartender. “Months, years, it’s all made up anyway.” “Yeah?” “Yup. But I know you didn’t come back here to argue with me about time, right?” he says, eagerly rising from the traditional position of a bartender known as the “counter slouch”. “How’s it been, Norm?”

Flapping his ears, the elephant grins behind his trunk. “Fantastic. Went to this place called Tannin. You heard of it?” “Nope. Hey, keep talkin’. I’ll get us drinks.” “On you?” The bartender squints, pursing his lips at his giant of a friend. “Yeah. Why, you thinkin’ I was gonna scam you?” “Yeah? Buddy, I’ve gotten thrown for a loop using that exact phrase more times than the fingers you’ve got on your hands. I thought I told you this.” “You don’t trust me?” “Gotta keep myself sharp as a tack, Benny,” the elephant states, setting a travel case on the countertop with a THUNK. “Alright, alright. The usual?” “The usual.” “Alright, so Tannin. It’s basically due west of Quarry, up in the mountains.” “Oh no. You went to Origin? For fun?” “Listen. It ain’t as bad as we say it is. Everyone in Stockpool’s got two fingers up their nose and another up their ass when it comes to other places.” “I mean, a lot of the times we’re right though.” “We’re right about one place.” “Primary,” they both say at once. The elephant snorts and crosses his arms. “Been there. Seen it all, and as much as I don’t like to admit it, it’s a town full of losers.” “Stockpool’s where it’s at, baby.” “Wouldn’t say that, but Stockpool’s nice.” “What beats it?” A sigh comes from the bar guest.

“I’m gonna keep talking about Tannin, ‘cause if I don’t, I’ll get sucked into another dumb conversation with you about how Stockpool’s one of the dirtiest cities around.” “Go ahead, Norm. These’ll take a while,” Benny’s voice says from somewhere in the back room. “Okay.” “So, Tannin. It’s an artisan town, just due west of Quarry. Of course, you can’t get there by goin’ straight west, you’ve gotta take a whole bunch of mountain roads that make you shit your pants whenever the wind blows.” “Once you’re there, though, you see why they chose the spot. Originals have some sort of weird tendency to pick out stupidly beautiful spots for their stuff.” “Trees and buildings of every color, set on the side of a hill that gets bathed in orange sun everytime it goes down. It’s incredible, you’d love it.” “But, the stuff they do there is pretty incredible too.” “You know what they do there, Benny?” “Tell me what they do there, Norm,” the bartender replies, followed by the clanking of metallic instruments against a tile floor.

“They specialize in dyes there. Can you believe that?” “I mean, you were in Origin.” “Cut that shit out, for real. This isn’t something you get to hear about every day, Benny.” “I’m just sayin’, man. It’s one of those things you hear and go, “Yup, that sounds like Origin,” right?” “Sure. Unless you’ve been anywhere outside of Stockpool, sure.” “Keep goin’ though.” “Fine,” says the elephant, huffing through his mammalian proboscis again.

“They’re a town of dye specialists. Every building, every shop you walk in specializes in the stuff. And the thing is, too, everyone’s got their own hues and colors. Nobody’s got the money fever yet, so you’re always gonna be finding new colors no matter where you go.” “And lemme tell you, they had some insane colors. Stuff that if you patterned’em right, you could blind everyone who happened to look your way on the street. I’ve got no idea how they get their colors to be fluorescent in that fashion. No idea.”

“That’s only half their gig, though. People go there for the colors, but they also go there to get the colors on their CLOTHES. As in, there are a whole bunch of shops that specialize in dying your clothes on the spot, Benny.” “Really? Like, with waiting rooms and shit?” “Imagine it like this. You walk in with a white shirt, and the dye you’ve bought. You give’em both to them, they take it, and within 4 hours, it’s done. You pick it up, and you get the hell out of town.” “4 hours? Shit, I could go to lunch, take a nap, and refuel my car in that span.” “What do you think I did? I wasn’t gonna sit there on my ass while they dyed my stuff.” “Anywhere good there?” “Lots. Lots of places where they go out and forage their ingredients, just like the dye they make.” “Sounds like a picky eater’s nightmare.” “You know me, I’ll eat anything. But that stuff was pretty nice, not gonna lie.” “Anyway, I packed around three dozen-ish individual pieces of white clothing for this trip. And I got it all dyed. Right there.” “But one of them stood out the most to me. One place in particular was the single weirdest experience I’ve ever had in one of these little towns.” “You know what they had me do?” “They had me put on the clothes I wanted dyed. Then, they brought me into this huge, HUGE vat of the dye I wanted that they’d prepared.” “They made me swim around in the vat for those four house to dye my clothes.” Instant laughter is heard from the back room. “And you AGREED to that shit?!” the bartender larks. “Hey, when you’ve got the opportunity to do something unique, you take it. I took it.” “If I told you to jump off the highest building in Stockpool-” “...Benny.” “Sorry. Keep going.” “Okay. To summarize this shit, my briefcase is filled with the rainbow after that trip. It was great, I had a good time, you probably would’ve too, the place was beautiful, yadda yadda are the drinks done yet?” “Funny you say that,” the bartender says, slipping out of the back room with two glasses filled to near spilling. The liquid is bright red, slightly bubbling, and reeking of strong liquor. Norm eyes it suspiciously. “This isn’t the usual.” “Yeah, but I thought I’d surprise you.” “What is it, then?” “Stoneberry Surprise.”

Hundred Miles V imagine

Based on the Song: Yall ft. Gabriela Richardson “Hundred Mile”

Okay so you remember that Pepsi commercial? It has this song in it and it’s the one where the boy and girl are dancing on an elephant that lights up. That’s what this imagine is kinda like, except “You and V are more than a hundred mile” lol enjoy.

The music was blaring from all around and the scene couldn’t be more colorful. There people were getting out of there cars in all kinds of indie hippie attire and tents were set up as far as the eye can see. The sky had a bluish-green pink and orange tint to it as you snapped another gorgeous picture with your camera.

“OMG Y/N THIS IS INSANE!”, your friend Sooyun exclaimed spilling all the contents in her cup.

You laughed as you threw the cup away nothing to stir clear of her while holding your camera. She’s always came from South Korea every summer to visit you, and the two of you would go to Indie festivals together. Since she loved the first one you took her to the first time she came, it became a tradition for the two of you.

“Y/N-ah you will not believe who I just saw.”, she said slurring her words.

“Really? Who?”, you asked snapping another picture of the stage.

She laughed and cupped her hands as if she still had a cup in her hand and pretended to still drink it.

“I just saw-”, she stopped suddenly.

“What is it?”

“Where the hell is my soju?”, she asked dazedly.

“Sooyun what the hell is wrong with you? You’ve had way too much already. I dumped it out cause you were spilling it all over the place.”

Her expression suddenly changed from confusion once you explained, then smiling.

“Who did you see?”, you asked catching her from falling on the grass once again.

“You really wanna know?”, she asked slyly giggling and slumping over your shoulder.

“JUST TELL ME!”

“Okay…come closer…”, she whispered moving some hair away from your ear.

You were speechless as you covered your mouth and hopped away from her. You had forgotten that you were the one holding her up, as she fell face first into the grass.

“Y/N-ah! You just made me fall on my ass!”, she yelled before deciding to lay back down flat on the ground.

Was she telling the truth? Did she really spot a member of Bangtan here at this festival? It could have just been someone that looked similar to one of them. It also could have been all the alcohol she must have consumed talking. But what were they doing here? You didn’t remember hearing any news that BTS would be here, but you knew that if there was one, there had to have been more where that came from.

“Sooyun if this is a joke, it’s really expensive. Are you sure?”, you asked lowly still dazed by the fact that a member of BTS was lurking around.

You got no answer as the already wasted Sooyun was already sound asleep in the grass. There weren’t many people around since it was such a big pasture, but the stage and the tents were nearby but far as the eye could see. But you couldn’t wait, you needed to find them and see if you can at least get a picture.

“Okay, okay Sooyun listen me. You will be okay while I go find out if they’re really here won’t you?”, You asked lifting her arms up anxiously to see her face.

“Okay while you do what?”, she asked crawling away from you still refusing to stand on her own two feet.

“You said you saw a member of BT-”,you began before spotting and hearing a guy dressed like Prince speaking fluent Korean. You tell if he was Korean or not, but he must know people that also speak Korean. You had seen him talking to the DJ earlier and concurred that they must have been friends by the way they shared laughter.

“You’re gonna just leave me here-”

“Hey uhh…I don’t mean to disturb you but…I was wondering if we could get another drink together. I saw you over there at the refreshment tent but when I turned around you were gone. My name’s Michael btw.”

He was tall defined muscular guy with a tie dye shirt and a bright pink snapback. Both Sooyun and Michael beamed at each other, sharing a childish grin. And you knew they had only thing in common at this point: they were both drunk.

“You don’t mind if I steal her do you? Promise I’ll bring here back.”, you slapped on a smile at his Korean only because you only knew so much.

“Anni.”, you answered still smiling, but unsure if he would really bring her back. After all he was drunk.

The Bohemian look was taking over as a guy whistled at you. Others were complimenting your purple braids, tie dye skirt, and 80’s fringed shirt. You walked passed the many different tents of face painting, henna tattoos, a tent for tie dye shirts and hippie wear, and indie records. You made sure to get a photo of everything as looked to the giant elephant in middle of the field to see one of the DJs working to fixing one of the lights inside. A few people already gathering up there as the sunset’s light hit directly I the faces turning them into black shadows.

“Alright, alright, alright the concert is gonna start in 15!”, the DJ blared through the speakers on stage.

You put a hand on your forehead feeling stupid that you were actually looking for BTS. It was possible that maybe Sooyun had been lying and all the alcohol was talking for her. Why would they even be at an indie festival anyway when they have far more to do in Korea as it is since topping the charts. But still something inside you wanted to keep looking, remembering that Sooyun was always shy, but when she was drunk she became bolder. Maybe there is some truth what she saw.

People began picking up their blankets they laid on the ground and some were beginning to crowd around towards the stage with some of the other DJ’s setting things up. You decided to get a henna tattoo and a henna charm in the middle of your forehead. You had brought some new clothes changing into it immediately and putting the others in your car. You shut the door and sighed staring at the large crowd of people with their hands up and squinted to see who ever it was jumping around on stage. It seemed like a really dope performance as you stuck your hands in your pocket and up the hill to get back to the festival.

“Y/N! Y/N! YOU’VE GOTTA COME QUICK! SOME GUY THAT SOOYUN WAS TALKING TO GOT US A SOMEWHAT CLOSE TO THE STAGE AND I LOVE GABRIELA RICHARDSON & YALL!”, Yuri frightened you.

She out of nowhere and she jumped out in front of you. You barely understood a word she said being that she took no breaths in between like a normal person. But then again you’d be the same way if Bangtan really were here.

“Well she also said a member of BTS was here, and I haven’t seen a single member.”, you said idly.

She looked confused as you returned the look right back at her. She looked like she was going to say something but then closed her lips again.

“What?”

“I just saw Taehyung though.”, she said looking back at the bioluminescent elephant that was now glowing blue.

Your eyes widened as she stepped back putting her hands out at you. “What?! You saw him? Where?”, you demanded.

She grabbed your hand cautiously. “Well if you’d stop asking questions and come on so we don’t miss YALL and Gabriela’s performance, I can show you.’’

The crowd grew larger and louder as you automatically got tense at how live it was.

"Cause they’re on next!”

You were shoved all the way to the front of the black metal bars where the line started, meeting Sooyun and her new friend Michael.

You looked back noticing just how far the line went and extended your head towards the stage. “Hey thanks Michael!”, Yuri grinning putting your hand in a death grip once again and pulling you to the close end of the stage. One of the bouncers lead you and the rest all way there leaving the other bouncer with the rest of the people in line.

A few people took to the stage as the cheers died down realizing that the guys on stage were only preparing for the next performance. Some of the technical guys you saw on top of the elephant were walking passed you and the crowd, when you spotted him. He was dressed like Prince hiding his eyes with walrus glasses but you knew it was him. He moved through the crowd that the other bouncer let through, and now the two of you weren’t too far from each other. You felt Sooyun, Michael, Yuri, and Jioon hopping up and down around you like maniacs as the lighting prepared for YALL to come on stage.

“Come here and visit my world!”

Yuri shook you in zeal as your eyes remained on V. Through the hands in the air he finally spotted and smiled winking. Your cheeks flushed red as you smiled and looked back to the band preparing on stage. He flicked his nose with his thumb suddenly making his way out of the crowd. You feared that he figured out that you recognized him and that you were a fan. You really hoped that he didn’t think you were a sasang or something. You felt as if a rock immediately dropped in your stomach as you stared at the floor. If you were to look for him now, the crowd is just too large and there is no way you’d be able to find him. Suddenly you felt a tap on your shoulder followed by someone shoving you. You turned around already prepared to punch the jerk that couldn’t control himself when he grinned at you.

“Sorry. The guy behind you was in my way.”,V exclaimed over the music.

“You’re-you’re-”, you babbled before he grabbed you by the hand and away from your friends.

With V leading you to Lord knows where, you suddenly found yourself in tent after tent taking all kind of silly pictures, drinking, and indie makeovers. He later removed his Prince costume and snatched your phone to take his own selfie.

“V you never told me why you’re here and…where the rest of BTS is.”, you said as the two of walked back towards the stage seeing the other group get off.

“Well we’re suppose to be on vacation right now and the guys decided to stay back and chill. So I found out about this festival, flew down by myself, and here I am.”, laughed showing that cheesy smile of his.

“So you remembered me?”, you asked thinking back to the BTS concert you attended back in Korea.

He put a finger on his chin as if he was thinking and laughed again.

“Of course I did! You were the fan who herself tangled up in the rope when it was your turn for the meet and greet.”, the two you laughed at the thought.

You slapped yourself playfully on your forehead yet embarrassed recollecting tripping and falling in front of Bangtan and having V pick you up from the floor. The moment he helped dust you off and were face to face, you never imagined that you would get this close to someone you love. It had you completely in a daze.

“(Where you live) sure does have the best festivals.”,he said looking out to Gabriela and YALL on stage.

You shot up at him recalling you telling him that at the meet and greet.

“Wait! I remember telling you that when I met you. You remembered that?” you asked looking into those same eyes at the meet and greet that you melted under, when it hit you.

He purposely showed up because you told him where you lives and that you liked indie festivals. He must have found out about the festival here and flew down here to find you. Or could it be the weird alien side that just does spontaneous things? The light from the elephant shown down on the side of his face as he blocked it.

“You don’t know this but, I remember every single word you ever said to me that day. And I couldn’t stop thinking about you.”, he replied over all the music and screams.

He took your hands in his as he intertwined his fingers into yours.

‘’I don’t know why but...I feel like a magnet around you. I flew out here because I wanted to be around you again.’’

Your cheeks were flushed with red and luckily the lights turned red with perfect timing. You looked down with his eyes following yours, leaving no choice but to look at him again.

“I know I’m always playing around and being silly but I’ve never felt so serious about a girl before. And when I saw you and then you left. I couldn’t even concentrate on the other fans.”, he confessed, shy at his own self.

You never believe a guy, especially Taehyung, who sees millions of fans each day could be so timid.

“I here because of you…”, he said.

You were about to respond when you heard a familiar time from the stage and the crowd.

“Come here and visit my world.”

You knew that this was one of Yuri’s favorite songs and the crowd was about to get even crazier. You looked at Taehyung and he seemed like he knew too as he placed something around your neck, and grabbed your hand again leading you through the crowd. Surprisingly they gave way when Yuri, Sooyun, and Jioon spotted you. Yuri pointed at your neck giving you a thumbs up and telling like a mad woman. You looked down noticing that you had a backstage pass that he must have paid for as he smiled at you. The two of you were close then ever, dancing in front of the elephant melodically. You felt like you were on cloud nine as he pulled you into his embrace.

“Don’t get lost cause I’m waiting, summer feelings awaitin’ boy!”

He spun you around to face him when he suddenly got serious.

“Y/N I want to continue getting to know you because I think I’m in love with you.”, he managed to say over the music.

It seemed too surreal to you as you hung into his words, still wondering if he was being the alien V, or a serious V.

“You and me is more than a hundred miles.”

“But Taehyung as much as I would like that...’’

He frowned.

‘’You live so far away from me-”, before you could finish, he snatched your hand and lead you into a small hole with a ladder going up into it.

You followed up into the opening when he helped you up unto a platform. You noticed the DJ’s crew and his little set-up you saw on top of the elephant, along with some other people dancing around the both of you. You looked out down below seeing the sea of people, but no sign of the elephant. That’s when you realized that you and V were actually inside the elephant. V took you by your shoulders and stared into your eyes, occasionally looking at your lips.

“No matter how far I am. You and me is more than a hundred miles.”, he mouthed pressing his lips onto yours.

He smiled through the long kiss as the song carried on, you and V continued to dance under the night sky and flashing lights.

“Dance with me one more time.”
