hoseok: name 5 important people in your life and how you feel about them

Choi Jiwon; Hoseok's platonic soulmate. Jiwon most likely saved his life without either of them being fully aware of it. School was incredibly rough for Hoseok, even from a very young age. He had pretty much given up on ever connecting with anyone when Jiwon, despite two years younger, approached him on the playground. He never knew what it was that brought them together, but Hoseok is eternally grateful for whatever force it was that did. They were inseparable for years, until they did get separated. Hoseok doesn't know how he will ever be able to repay Jiwon for all the efforts he went through to be able to come live with him and a lot of the time he feels like he doesn't deserve the unwavering loyalty and support, but Jiwon has his whole heart, even if he sucks at showing it.

Ho Duksoo; Hoseok's adoptive brother. Their relationship has been anything but smooth and there was a mutual rejection going on for a while, but ultimately they managed to bond by speaking in Korean (and most likely frustrating their parents in the process). Hoseok struggles with the fact that he, already someone who finds it hard to read people, can never tell how Duckie feels about things or even about him. Sometimes he worries that the walls the other puts up are his own fault for being too pushy, so he's learned to be the first one to take a step back and try to give Duckie space. It took a long time to get used to Duckie's way of communicating - Hoseok being very sensitive to rejection and criticism made this a painful process - but he's gotten to a point where he's now comfortable enough not to take things too seriously. Most of the time. Hoseok does love Duckie and it warms his heart when the accidental 'hyung' gets thrown at him, even if he still walks on eggshells sometimes.

Maxxie Moon; Some may say the two are unlikely friends, others might see exactly why the two gravitated towards each other. Maxxie isn't the type of person Hoseok would normally have approached, but he's grateful that the two did end up engaging in conversation, despite how much he struggled at first. Hoseok has learned Maxxie and himself have a similar outlook on life, they both share a love for music and despite Maxxie's hard exterior, Hoseok has seen glimpses of a softer person. Maxxie fascinates him, the way he doesn't speak any Korean, hates sweets and drinks his coffee black. Maybe part of him wishes he had more of Maxxie's 'don't give a fuck' attitude, rather than just having the appearance without the personality to match.

Benjamin Park; When Hoseok came to America and his adoptive parents finally suggested for him to go back into therapy, the boy was incredibly pessimistic about the idea. How was he meant to be able to express himself when he already struggled to speak, let alone in a secondary language? And as expected, not much came out of any of the psychiatrists they found for him. After moving to Shrike Heights to chase after Duckie, Hoseok realized that perhaps he did need the extra bit of stability, just by being able to vent to an unbiased party. Stumbling upon Ben felt like a miracle, as for once he didn't have to worry or feel embarrassed for accidentally switching languages in the middle of a conversation. Even if he still gets awkward sometimes, he feels comfortable enough to properly talk to Ben about his life and Hoseok does view him as some sort of mentor.

His biological mother; Hoseok has conflicting feelings towards pretty much all parental figures in his life, but he's the 'closest' to his mother. Part of him resents her for how things went down with his father, though he isn't sure if he's angry about her calling the police on him or for the many years in which she was oblivious to what was going on. He also feels guilt for how much of a burden all the events have been on her, feels responsible for the way it affected her health, feels selfish for trying to take the easy way out and subsequently ending up on the other side of the world. He loves his mom for her unconditional love for him and knows that her decisions were to protect him - after all, she chose her child over her marriage. But Hoseok predicts it will take a long time for the relationship between them to balance out, especially since he hasn't been able to see her in years.

@modestmuses said: Joxter: “what’s goin' on in that head'a y'rs?”

(Intense vibes starters - open!)

Ink starts a little at the question, looking over at the one who asked. When he sees that it's the Joxter, he immediately feels embarrassed. He hadn't realized that he was zoning out while making a drink for the older man, but evidently he was, and he reflexively goes to apologize as a small, sheepish smile crosses his face.

"Sorry about that," he says. "I'm just a bit distracted today, that's all. I appreciate you asking, but it's nothing particularly interesting. I'll be alright." He finishes making the Joxter a drink, then slides it over to him with a slightly more confident, friendly grin followed by a playful wink.

"Here you go!" he says. "If you need anything else, just let me know, alright?" There aren't that many other customers at the Morning Glory today, and no one calls Ink over just yet, so he instead busies himself behind the bar. Anything to keep himself distracted.

The Joxter wasn't wrong when he asked that question--there is something on Ink's mind right now, but it's not something that he wants to just dump on his acquaintance without warning, even if the Joxter is the one who asked.

Because, really, just because they've talked a few times doesn't mean that Ink is going to feel comfortable spilling his guts to him.

it came to my realization that 99% of my fandom related headaches would be cured if everyone understood this

please i love you i'm begging you bring back suspension of disbelief bring back trusting the audience like. i cannot handle any more dialogue that sounds like a legal document. "hello, i am here to talk to you about the incident from a few minutes ago, because i feel you might be unwell, and i am invested in your personal wellbeing." "thank you, i am unwell because the incident was hurtful to me due to my childhood, which was bad." I CANT!!!!

do you know how many people are mad that authors use "growled" as a word for "said"? it's just poetics! they do not literally mean "growled," it's just a common replacement for "said with force but in a low tone." it's normal! do you hear me!! help me i love you please let me out of here!!!

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again
