A redraw of this piece i drew july last year, this time with their actual designs. And also a little ficlet written by my partner @lunarsands when i posted the original picture

-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-

“Babies cry a lot, huh?”

“She’s really loud for being so small!”

“Maybe she hasn’t gotten a new toy in a long while. I can give her my teddy bear right now, she can borrow it until later.”

“What are we calling her? Or is she just ‘baby’?”

“I wanna hold her! Tell Dad he can’t hog her all the time!”

“Shh,” Sausage tempered the last one. “Babies need an adult to hold them most of the time, they can’t do things on their own.”

“But I’ll be careful! I promise!”

“You can hold her later. Right now Dad is trying to get her to sleep. She’s had a really big adventure today.”

That thought sunk into their collective little heads, then someone else piped up, “Can we go see her, please?? I wanna see the baby sleeping!”

“You all have to promise to be very quiet, all right?” Sausage passed a stern look over each of the six children. The oldest two nodded, still curious but understanding. The younger ones were the more excited, having less memory of being around infants before.

He led the group down the hall to the hastily assembled crib where there was finally less crying while the familiar sound of an elven lullaby was being sung. Sausage eased the door open and made a small wave, then pointed downward behind him. Scott, standing in the middle of the room with the baby in his arms, continued to sing but gave a quick look of acknowledgment.

Sausage motioned for the other children to stay at the door, helping them arrange themselves by height to get the best view, and they did their best to remain quiet while still shuffling around somewhat to look in past him.

Satisfied they would behave, Sausage leaned against the doorframe to listen with his arms folded, gazing over with a soft expression.

They hadn’t chosen an infant before because of the necessary set of needs, but with the way the human foundling had been presented they couldn’t turn the opportunity away, and now he was glad because it seemed to suit Scott so perfectly, and he couldn’t deny the way his own heart had swelled when he had first picked up the tiny child.

And really, what was one more new experience for their not-so-little-anymore family?

-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-

Happy spooks everyone! 🎃💀🦇🕸️

👣. !!: HOSEONG’S DATING HISTORY ‧₊˚

↺ 💌 ࣪ ˖ ∿ author’s note , @ jise3oul were always wild bitches from the beginning bro 🤡 anyways have fun with this! a new update after like a month :,)

⊂ MOON ✶ GA YOUNG ⊃

╭・ฅ🕸﹕year - 2O17 - 2O19 !

╰・ฅ🕸️ : status - exes !

HOSEONG MET GA YOUNG for the first time through Cha Eunwoo as he was a close friend and hyung figure of the Astro member. Ga young had come across Eunwoo during their time together at Sungkyunwan University in 2O16, but officially got to know Hoseong after Eunwoo had invited the both of them to Astro’s first concert in Seoul in 2O17. They really got talking during that time, even to a point that Eunwoo had to tease and pout at them when they were all gathered in the dressing room together for forgetting to acknowledge his existence :,)

HOSEONG AND GA YOUNG had become friends by that time and soon news of Ga young’s role in ‘Romeo & Juliet’ was announced online. Hoseong, who had a busy schedule, had no idea of this until Eunwoo reached out to tell him about it. He proceeded to send Ga young flowers with a note of support and good luck and later called her up with another good luck message (which was raided heavily by Taehyung and Hoseok who also congratulated the woman after Hoseong had mentioned her to them). Ga young found it very cute, appreciating the gesture and thanking him almost a little shyly.

THEIR INTERACTIONS WOULD go on like this for probably a few months where Ga young oftentimes returned the favour of support she got from Hoseong back to him during his comebacks with BTS. The calls would start with messages of support and before they know it, the both of them are up past late hours, smiling and giggling, with Hoseong trying to keep his voice down as Taehyung is fast asleep in the bed a few feet away from his own. He loved it—their talks. And weeks after that the duo would officially tie the knot as boyfriend and girlfriend!

THINGS WERE CLEARLY GOING great for a while. It was Hoseong’s first official relationship and he had been with this girl for just about two years before the toll of clashing schedules took effect. He had been fine with not seeing her regularly in the beginning, usually settling for facetime and text messages, but the longer they were together, the more Hoseong began to crave physical intimacy as a means to express his love.

IT WAS BECAUSE OF HIS OWN dissatisfaction as a partner that Hoseong had chosen to break up with Ga young because even before this, they had discussed potential breaks. He was on the path of passivity, sometimes just having no energy to want to talk to her and on other days feeling frustrated that they couldn’t work something out to be able to see each other more often. They broke up due to rather unfortunate circumstances, leaving Ga young feeling disheartened in a way that meant their relationship couldn’t be continued outside of the realm of romantic.

⊂ PARK ✶ JIMIN ⊃

╭・ฅ🕸﹕year - well… it’s a little complicated !

╰・ฅ🕸️ : status - first kiss (with a boy) , fuck buddies (previous) , dating (current & undisclosed to the public) !

HOSEONG AND JIMIN’S RELATIONSHIP started off quite simply. They were two ordinary boys under the same company, working together as rookies. Jimin was an… interesting character to Hoseong, to say the least. After all, Hoseong hadn’t always been the lovely little ball of sunshine that he is, especially not towards the beginning stages of Bangtan’s development and debut as he struggled tirelessly with problems ranging from homesickness and lack of sleep, to providing assistance for his family with rent and school supplies. Jimin, ever the attentive saint, was one of Hoseong’s pillars of happiness at this time.

JIMIN ADORED HOSEONG. IT WAS A KNOWN fact that would quickly make it onto the list of every ARMY’s introduction video under Jimin’s name.

“If you were a girl, who would you want to have a relationship with?” “Hoseong hyung.”

“If you had one day off, what would you want to do?” “If I had a day off, I would go on a date with Hoseong hyung. I’d keep him all to myself.”

“When you feel troubled, where would you want to go and with who?” “I want to fly across the world alone with Hoseong hyung.”

IT TOOK TIME FOR HOSEONG TO ADJUST to just how shameless and affectionate Jimin was with him—how important his little smiles were to Jimin when the younger touched him, tugged him along to places, or when they basked in each other’s silence with a fluttering heart that cooed at the companionship they provided each other so effortlessly.

AND THEN, IT WAS DURING THEIR DARK & Wild era that Hoseong kissed Jimin for the first time– kissed a boy for the first time. In the midst of teenage hormones and visions of a bright future with Bangtan, the two became entangled in between Hoseong’s bedsheets, getting carried away with their kisses that were verging on the path of something more before Hoseok had barged in on the duo, rooted in spot. Things did not go well after that—not because Hoseok was homophobic or anything, but because he was worried about what this could mean for the group so early on in their career, getting intimately involved with another member.

HIS WORRY GARNERED THE BOYS’ understanding. Of course, they were worried too, and so they plainly agreed that their kiss would be a onetime affair, but this had only lasted so long before their first hookup, which then turned into more hookups, until ultimately they chose to label themselves friends with benefits.

A LOT TOOK PLACE OVER THE YEARS with Jise3oul. They hooked up regularly until Hoseong got together with Ga young in 2O17, and only after their breakup did Jimin choose to make his move. The two got together sometime during 2O2O in the midst of the pandemic in South Korea, having spent a lot of time indoors in each other’s company.

⊂ JEON ✶ JEONGGUK ⊃

╭・ฅ🕸﹕year - 2O2O - present !

╰・ฅ🕸️ : status - dating (current & undisclosed to the public) !

FOR JEONGGUK, things were a whole whirlwind of confusing feelings from the very start. He knew he liked his Hoseong hyung because he was there for him, taking the initiative to make him comfortable and shield the maknae from any teasing done in negative light because Hoseong was aware of Jeongguk’s shy nature.

“Come on, my blushing bunny. I need some company for grocery shopping. You’ll be my knight, won’t you?”

IT WAS PRETTY far fetched, really. A knight? To someone twice the size of him? It was silly, but Hoseong’s personality thrived on silly energy. He made a lot of Jeongguk’s earlier days at the company bearable, filled with laughter he would never give up for anything else so how couldn’t he fall for his hyung? His hyung that was big and strong and cool and manly. Jeongguk looked up to him, actively seeked out his approval.

BUT THEN CAME Park Jimin, and things would begin to get even more confusing for an already confused boy who is still figuring out his sexuality. Jimin was sort of like a puzzle piece. He fit right in with Hoseong’s bright natured goodness; the two were very extroverted but Jimin would oftentimes flirt with the maknae too, calling him cute or caressing his hair. He was definitely very touchy, but Jeongguk had also believed it was all for a good laugh and some screen time points, especially since Jimin and Hoseong’s flirting with each other was almost off the charts crazy. It would make any interaction of him with either of them seem absolutely stale.

“Aish, where are they? Someone call Hoseong.”

DID HIS YEARNING begin then? During all of those times that Jeongguk would have to bear witness to the two members entering the Bighit building with disheveled clothes and heaving chests? He wasn’t exactly naive. He knew what his hyungs were getting up to whenever they arrived late to meetings together, but he kept quiet, knowing it was none of his business.

HE FOUND HIS SOLACE in Taehyung during this time, because like Jeongguk, this hyung too was feeling the effects of loneliness and yearning. The maknae line were a close knit group of friends, but with Jimin and Hoseong’s intimate entanglement, things sort of derailed for a while.

THINGS WOULD BEGIN to look up during a crucial mistake in Jeongguk’s life later on. In the midst of the pandemic, he had made a slightly foolish decision to go out drinking with some friends after being in a particularly low mood, getting so drunk that he had apparently vented his feelings out to both Jimin and Hoseong before passing out completely.

THE NEXT DAY, AFTER waking up from a raging headache, the maknae would open his phone to requests for a meet-up from the couple where they would finally talk things out clearly, concluding that Jeongguk would be a very welcome addition into Jimin and Hoseong’s relationship.

⊂ KIM ✶ TAEHYUNG ⊃

╭・ฅ🕸﹕year - 2O2O - present !

╰・ฅ🕸️ : status - dating (current & undisclosed to the public) !

WITH TAEHYUNG, he’s always been a person full of love to give to others.

INITIALLY, HIS feelings for Hoseong had probably surpassed both Jimin and Jeongguk’s infatuation, having found the male attractive upon their first encounter with each other when they were both up and coming trainees. He had a huge, huge crush on the older, but knowing the nature of what the idol industry requires and expects, Taehyung couldn’t exactly make any moves.

AT BEST, TAEHYUNG would simply be wholly clingy. He would quench his feelings of yearning with quality time, piggyback rides, hugs, kisses on the cheek and much more, but this was more to the detriment of his happiness than its benefit as Hoseong’s reciprocation of his gestures would spark hope of a potential connection that seared deeper than the average friendship. Hoseong’s lingering smiles, his mellow personality with Taehyung made the younger feel special, but it had apparently meant nothing of the same sort to Hoseong.

WHEN HE HEARD about the news with Hoseong and Jimin during their Dark & Wild era, he had gone into a state of despair. These were two very close friends of his—one of which he even had an ongoing crush on. Taehyung wasn’t sure what exactly it was that their relationship was to one another, but he knew they had something going on behind the scenes and that something was enough to dim his spark noticeably. That’s when Jeongguk had stepped in.

IN A WAY, THEY had sort of used each other as rebounds during Jise3oul’s ‘whore arc’. They knew what they were getting into—this entire setup was to drown out the pain of their unrequited love, but it just wasn’t enough for Taehyung to dabble into FWBs type situations. He needed a real connection and so he had sought out a blind date through some friends.

THE GIRL THEY had paired him up with was surprisingly a very great fit. She was able to make him forget, for a brief moment in time, that his heart belonged to another he could not have. This relationship had been a blossoming experience, but also one that had lead to realisations and heartbreak in the end. Nobody could fulfil that empty space in his life for long. She wasn’t the one.

IN 2O2O THOUGH, it would be Taehyung’s time. It was a momentous year for both him and Jeongguk after the mishaps of the pandemic, Jeongguk’s drunk ranting and their unrequited love being showered with more than they could have ever hoped for.

OF COURSE AS stated previously, it was Jeongguk who had been the catalyst for everything. He had been the one to send Hoseong and Jimin that lengthy wall of text hosting his feelings, and Taehyung had come to find out that the couple were happy to invite their maknae into the relationship and deem it polyamorous before Jeongguk had apparently brought up Taehyung during the conversation.

“You should’ve just told us sooner, you dummy.” Jimin had boinked him on his head after finding that out, and Taehyung had pouted as he rubbed the spot to soothe it.

“I didn’t know you’d be so open. You’re usually the possessive type!” He’d grumbled, receiving a kiss on the head from Hoseong which immediately melted away his complaints, shy and bubbly.

AND THIS IS how their relationship began.

This one’s for my queer homies 🏳️‍🌈 Each entry is only five smackers and all proceeds benefit the One•n•Ten LGBTQ+ support organization. Since so many of my queer homies love spooky stuff and Halloween more than anyone else, I made this spooky edition mushroom lamp to raffle off in their honor 🕸️

I grew up with queer friends and family, and they showed me how important it is to be exactly who you want to be, despite fear and adversity. As a cis little white boy who faced very little adversity, I took that freedom of expression for granted most of my life, but I want to give back to the community that helped shape me because they face more fear and adversity than I could ever know.

This spooky edition mushroom lamp is made of solid brass with a dark pewter patina and custom spiderweb diffusers. As is the case for all my lamps, the unlacquered brass patina will change and evolve over time with use. Has a built in dimmer switch and an antique style black twisted fabric cord and plug.

You can enter the raffle at milesmcdermott.com/lgbtq and you have until October 31st to enter. A winner will be randomly chosen a few days after and the lamp will ship to the winner with no shipping charge, unless they are outside of the United States in which case shipping will incur a fee.

SEOKMIN IN FIRE EMBLEM AU; a headcanon list

While it doesn’t have a specific game from the series in the title, i’ll be using Three Houses as my main inspiration since it’s the one I recently played. Will not follow the game’s plot directly bc i’ll be focusing more on the school and daily life parts more lol.

Lee Seokmin, the second child and next in line to be the head of House Lee, one of the five great houses of the Leicester Alliance. His family is known to possess great vocal ability so most of them became singers and bards and well acquainted with the opera

I think he fits a class that can wield a sword the best (this is me going off on vibes alone and based it off arthur!kyeom). Personally, i’d put him as either a soldier or hero class but being part of the cavalier is good too. The thing is, Seokmin is just as skilled with a bow. Much like the other kids from the leicester alliance, he’s been trained to be able to use one with great accuracy but after trying a sword, he found it much more comfortable to use.

Final verdict — his starting class is hero.

Seokmin is a protector. He will, instinctively, gladly take the hit for you. The type to subtly pull you behind him when on the battlefield bc he’d rather have you out of harm’s way. You know that look when he’s super focused? He eyes his enemies like a hawk, he’ll be ready to counter and block whoever is daring enough to make the first move.

But like that’s what makes it his biggest weakness too, the emotional side that comes out especially when he’s so riled up. he was once chastised by Seungcheol, after a mission went awry. He got riled up so bad, emotions blinding him that he failed to notice a teammate get tag teamed by one of the enemy soldiers. Had Jeonghan been a second late, it could’ve ended with one of them dead. They were lucky to get out alive, gravely injured but alive.

Seokmin vows never to let his rage blindside him again.

Ok but can you imagine his support dialogues? The s-support dialogue?? Gonna go insane thinking about it bc i bet it’ll be so sweet. Instead of the usually loud and energetic seokmin, we are greeted by the softer and gentler side of himself. The lover; the one who looks at you with so much affection that it manifests in the way he treats you. He talks in whispers bc he fears that any decibel higher than 40 will shatter the fragile atmosphere he has with you. Goddess forbid.

He’ll take your hand gently in his, his thumbs rubbing small circles on the back of your palm like a promise that he’ll keep the world safe for you because he’d rather go to hell first and suffer if it meant keeping the love of his life safe.

Why did I do that to myself. Plus one for shared heart clenching for a Lee Seokmin [+1]

Anyways, you’ll find Seokmin usually by the stables or the dining hall. He has an affinity with horses and often volunteers to help with the horses and pegasi. Oftentimes, you’d find him making pizza with Mingyu. The entire monastery now knows the second and third wednesdays of the month are unofficiall ‘pizza nights’.

Seokmin naturally gets along with students from the other houses. his bright disposition and easy going nature making it easy to befriend those around him. He’s kind of like a magnet? Also he sings really well, and he sings everywhere at anytime, it’s hard not to ignore him (bad thing or not).

He’s also in the choir with Seungkwan and Joshua. Jeonghan joins from time to time.

Trick o’ Treat 2022 mini event [closed]

[vinyls-and-valentines]

hello, just wanted to stop by and say how much I love reading about your au where they all live it's so sweet like I can't please tell us more (no presure ofc) this is the only acceptable au rn

Also Ghoul has a kid?! T-T

anyway sorry for this embarrassing emotional rambling, killjoys living happy lives is just something so precious and thank you for the blessing byeeee -Joy🕸️

All angst banned on the vinyls-and-valentines blog. Only soft AU stuff allowed from now on /j

Anyways, highlight reel of the AU where they live (not to be mistaken with the AUs where they don't die):

the Fabulous Killjoys don't lose the Girl in the aftermath of the Na Na Na mv, rendering the action of the Sing mv null. She grows up with her siblings and honorary extended radio crew family. Many shenanigans are had in her teenage years including her, Vamos and Vaya teaming up to beat NewsAGoGo's Space Invaders high score and accidentally starting a war (as you do) which Vinyl wins by decimating everyone in pinball, calling Poison at 2 am to help tail the Ultra Vs' van because they got a flat in Inner Zone 4, south of the Diner, on their way to a Zone concert, marksmanship competitions with Jet and Uncle Cherri Cola, etc. She learns to make The sickest patches from Kobra and Pony, a lot of which end up on her jeans or Ghoul's vest and sometimes on the inside of Jet's jacket.

BL/i gets brought down through joint efforts by killjoys and juvies, which means uh. Jet and the Girl get reunited with their parents, which comes with its highs and lows especially since both parties have been out of their kids' lives for so long, but at the same time Jet and the Girl are not children anymore, so they can leverage some of the weight themselves and generally it turns out alright. Jet is really happy to have his parents back in his life, actually, and him and Kobra always make the time to visit them and catch them up on what's been going on, or stay over at their place instead for a few days before holidays to help with preparations and whatnot. Can't say they entirely understand these two's relationship, but they're happy their son is happy! :)

with the Girl things are a bit different because of circumstances, but the Fabulous Killjoys and radio crew do try to catch her mum up with most of the things she's missed, especially the embarrassing pre-teen stuff because the Four are her siblings after all, and the Girl moves close to her mum's new place in order to spend time together more easily. Much like in my regular canon, they bond together over activities like gardening and yarn crafts, and the Girl helps her mum find her passion for poetry, in turn getting boy advice over tea, coffee and cookies and it's not like nothing's ever been bad or they've never been apart, but it doesn't hurt anymore.

talking of holidays, they always get together at the Diner to celebrate together, blood and chosen family members alike, and everybody brings something to the table and it's really nice and festive and if the holiday they're celebrating involves giving gifts they do a lottery a few weeks prior to decide who gets gifts for who because these are ultimately fairly large family events, but it's always lots of fun! A lot of family traditions also get brought in and mixed together, but sadly I have no examples at the moment. Birthdays, as in most versions of my canon, are very important, so you bet your ass that for the entirety of the 24 hours of one's birthday they are going to see their entire family at least once and absolutely get drowned in gifs and/or birthday wishes.

technically Ghoul, Poison and Kobra's respective parents are still somewhere out there in Battery City, but it really doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things, y'know? Ghoul's parents have burnt their bridges long ago and would be unwilling to compromise even when giver the chance anyways, and Kobra and Poison are just better off not knowing that their parents are still out there somewhere because it'd mean having to unpack a lot of unpleasant stuff all over again and they've already moved on, so it's perhaps best to leave things as they are.

Ghoul not only has kid, but they also have a wife, and together they are both great parents because they can count on each other to call out any bad habit they might've picked up from or developed because of their own upbringings and generally have people they can fall back on when and if they need it. I literally cannot get across how incredibly happy Ghoul is and how lucky they consider themselves, especially since their idea of breaking the cycle of bad parenting was dying young (more or less by their own doing, or at the very least on their terms) and never having kids. They literally have no doubt that this is real because it is so far beyond anything they could've ever imagined.

I've said it before in the OG tags, but it bears repeating: the Girl is so excited to be an aunt, and it's mostly because all the people who she considers to be her aunts/uncles/etc genuinely made her childhood filled with good memories and made her feel like she had someone who she could go to other than her siblings who'd take her seriously, but wouldn't be so inclined to coddle her or her feelings. She wants to be that person, and while the kid is technically too young for it in the timeframe of this AU I usually think about, she still does make a point to leave Ghoul and and their wife little trinkets for the kid, and her mum even helped her do a knitted quilt. She might or might not also adopted sneaking stuff like candy and silly little cards with her gifts from Cherri, but she has elected to make no comments when confronted about it, amused.

Ghoul's wife and the Girl's mum help Poison at their bakery and they are besties <3. Poison is always the first to wake up and start making bread, cookies and muffins and always "bakes too much" on purpose because the bakery gives away surplus products to Gravel Gertie's orphanage, especially since the people there also run a food bank, and Kobra loves its sibling, and if it were in their place it'd probably do the same thing, but it also knows how much Poison actually sleeps on average and it takes it leaving its warm cozy "bed" at 1 am and driving its ass two zones to smack some sense into them it will do it. It is seriously considering unionizing everyone living near them to make sure this dumbass actually gets an 8 hours of sleep. Lock them out of the bakery for crimes against sleepy cozy time. Star, it is being very serious, Star—

Kobra and Jet technically still half-live at the diner, though more often than not they end up sleeping at their mechanics shop (this is a family of hypocrites, if you couldn't tell already /lh) and much like the Diner, their shop has a big, colorful mural on the back that their crew all all added something to.

Jet's got so many astronomy books because the Girl asks Vaya to be on the lookout for them while going around (although a couple were from Volume getting them as part of a trade) and he very much still does make mental note of any cool stuff he reads about to share with the people he cares about. He's even more excited when he learns the new of a constellation he didn't know the name of. so he can retcon himself and properly identify them especially if it's one he saw with Ghoul because they are science bros, and science bros learn the secrets of the Universe together <3 (and also use said secrets of the Universe to communicate they still care about each other, but have negative 0 emotional bandwidth to communicate that fact in a direct manner)
