#(when they’re described as having them) With a couple exceptions for sure - but a lot of them were a bit samey

[ashwhowrites]

Hello hello my wonderful friend!

I’m not sure if you’ve done one of this trope before, you’ve written so many so it wouldn’t surprise me! But this may be a little different? I’d like to request sex pollen trope with Eddie and then some miscommunication and angst with a happy ending. ❤️❤️

I was thinking maybe they’re in the upside down and some weird plant/mist/etc down there does it? Or honestly it doesn’t have to be so literal. Whatever way to get the sex pollen effect you like best. But basically the whole older group is affected, whatever happens with the others is off-screen. Reader and Eddie have both been in love with each other forever but she doesn’t think Eddie likes her back and Eddie thinks she’s way beyond his league and wouldn’t ever want him. The sex pollen happens and then after when the group is embarrassed and getting ready to move past it a few comments are made by the others like “I’d never have done that in my right mind” or like joking comments about “let’s forget this ever happened”, “my eyes - I need bleach!” Basically trying to make light of it and move past it. And Eddie makes some kind of joking comment as well, sure that reader is mortified to have done that with her best friend. Reader is devastated because she hoped that it might have meant something and that he’d meant what he’d said to her during as much as she had meant what she said to him. She distances herself from Eddie which upsets him but he understands (thinks it’s because of the pollen stuff, not his comment). He’s talking to Steve about it one day, unsure what to do to fix it and Steve is confused. Apparently the others (minus Jonathon and Nancy or whoever you prefer to ship as an established couple) all just touched themselves with the exception of the established couple. The pollen didn’t make you do anything you didn’t want to do, it just made you crazy horny and more uninhibited. It also didn’t make anyone else say things, or compel them to say things. They were in control completely. Cue realization. Eddie goes to reader, confronts her (“did you mean what you said?”), she’s like please don’t do this, you said yourself *insert joking comment*. He reveals what he learned from Steve. Reader is embarrassed and blushing but realizes Eddie said some things during too. Actual confessions happen, happy ending, tears and kisses.

I feel like I did an awful job of explaining but don’t feel like you have to stick exactly to that mess above. I just wasn’t sure how else to describe the idea I’m going for? I’m just wanting the Ash spin on sex pollen trope that has your signature delicious miscommunication angst and then happy ending. Full creative control is yours obviously and I’ll be happy with it because you wrote it and you’re my fave 🥰

My first take on sex pollen trope so 🤞🏻 I hope I do it justice. I hope this is what you wanted and you enjoy it! Thank you for requesting ❤️

Mysterious plant

⚠️smut

It was summer break, Y/N, Robin and Eddie just graduated, Nancy and Steve needed a break from the work life, so they all decided to take a camping trip. They packed all their stuff into Eddie's van and hit the road before sundown.

The trip was everything they needed. Time in the sun, time away from responsibilities, and a whole lot of drugs and alcohol. They only spent a few nights there, before they headed back. None knowing they were bringing something back with them.

"Yo, is this poisonous?" Eddie asked as he reached forward to touch a strange looking plant.

"Don't touch it!" Y/N warned him, slapping his hand away. She looked down at the plant, truly having no idea what it was.

"Nothing I've seen before. But we are in the woods so we probably shouldn't touch it," Nancy said as she looked down at it.

They all surrounded it as they looked at it. A gust of wind came and ripped the roots right out of the ground. The dirt flew up and made them cough as it filled their nose.

"Welp, at least it's dead now," Robin said as she coughed. The strange plant caused them to cough for a good few minutes as they packed everything up.

As Eddie drove them back, he felt a little funky. His body was getting really warm and he could feel himself sweating.

"Is anyone else hot?" Y/N asked from the passenger seat. She cranked up the AC.

"Yes," Steve groaned as he uncomfortably shifted in his spot in the back. Nancy and Robin groaned in agreement.

Eddie couldn't help but speed as the air continued to get thick and hot.

~

"Finally!" Eddie groaned as he walked into his trailer. He quickly tore off his shirt, throwing it in the bathroom as he walked to his room.

Y/N ran a towel under the sink, putting it on her forehead as she tried to soak in the cold water. She closed her eyes as she took deep breaths. She heard Eddie walking around and the sound of him running the sink. She kept her eyes shut as she focused on not getting sick from how overheated she was.

Eddie splashed the water on his face, letting the droplets run down his naked chest. His mind was blank as all he could feel was how hot he felt.

He turned off the sink, quickly tying his hair up. "You want to change? I've got some boxers you can throw on," he asked. For the first time since leaving, he looked at her.

And this different feeling ran through his body. A shiver up his spine. He always had the hots for her, it was obvious she was attractive. But he'd never make a move on his best friend. Not after all the years they spent together and the friendship they created. He knew he had feelings for her, but his body was practically aching as he looked at her.

She opened her eyes to answer him, words stuck in her throat as he stood in just boxers. She gulped as her body seemed to have a mind of its own. She felt her face burn as she shifted, feeling a pool of wetness between her thighs. She knew for a fact it wasn't because of the heat.

She had a thing for Eddie for years. Started as a little schoolgirl crush and developed into something much more when they both went through puberty. He grew into his body and she's been dealing with falling in love with her best friend for a while now.

Eddie was nowhere near the type to be in a relationship. So, she figured not to bother wishing on a star he'd feel the same. She was always so good at keeping her composure, which is why she was shocked that she couldn't form words as he stared at her.

He must have felt something too. Because the longer they stared at each other, the longer their bodies craved each other.

"Uh, sure," she finally got out. She pushed herself away from the counter and walked to his room.

Eddie didn't feel in control of his own body as he followed her. He was a nice guy, he knew to give her privacy. But it was like he had no choice, in a trance as he walked in. She could feel his eyes on her, and she loved it. Normally, she would push him out but something in her wanted him to watch her.

She turned as her body smacked into his. She gasped as she could easily feel his hard cock against her. She looked into his eyes as she stripped off her shirt. She held her breath when his hands wrapped around her, palms against her back as he slid up and unhooked her bra.

She didn't feel nervous or self-conscious as the material fell to the floor. His hands skimmed to her hips, holding her softly. All his mind was focused on was the burning heat in his stomach and the throbbing of his cock. He wasn't worried about it being his best friend, he wasn't taking the time to be in awe of her naked chest in front of him, he needed to fuck her.

The only thing both of them could think about.

He was fast as he smashed his lips on hers. The simple kiss brought moans out of them as they gripped each other. The kiss was messy and desperate, trying to relieve the sexual tension they felt. But it only edged them on. Their tongues danced with each other as he pushed her down on his bed, keeping his mouth on hers.

She rubbed her thighs together, the amount of wetness she felt was indescribable. She had never been this wet before. She could physically feel her cunt throbbing and her clit ache to be touched.

When he pulled away, a line of spit connected them from his lips to hers. His eyes bored into hers and it was as they were communicating without words.

In quick movements, they stripped each other. Their hands were fast and uncoordinated as they tried to feel every inch of each other.

Her hands burned as they ran up his chest and then down his back. The feeling of his skin drove her insane and she wanted to feel more and more. He shivered as she touched him, his hands moving to her chest.

His cock twitched as he massaged her breasts, fingers rolling her nipples as precum leaked out of him. She thought having his touch would settle the fire in her stomach but it only fueled it more. They both understood there was no reason for foreplay, too impatient as their bodies ached.

Eddie could barely think straight as he shoved himself into her. Loudly moaning in bliss he felt her wrap around him. She whined as she felt him fill her up, wasting no time as she moved her hips.

He pressed his lips against hers as he began to thrust into her. He felt insane as he fucked her as fast and hard as possible. Her eyes rolled in the back of her head as he hit every spot inside of her. Their sweaty bodies rubbed against each other.

He pulled away as he panted into her face. Both had no control as their moans filled up the room. He could feel his toes curling from the way his balls slammed against her. It was something he wanted for so long and it was way better than he imagined.

"More, please. I need more," she whined as she clawed at his back. His body felt perfect against her. She was addicted to every part of him. The smell of sex and sweat made her arch.

She shivered as he laughed. A dark mocking laugh.

"Yeah? Fucking beg for it, slut,"

She figured she'd gasp at his words but all that came out was a loud moan. She should have known he was dominant and rough.

"Fuck. Please! You feel so good. I just need more. I'll take anything just fuck, please, something," she begged.

Eddie kept his focus on fucking her as he reached for his nightstand. He yanked it open, mindlessly searching. Y/N felt her cunt pulse with excitement as he pulled out a small vibrator. She wasn't surprised Eddie would have sex toys hiding somewhere. She tried to make a mental note to look back at the nightstand in the future.

She jolted as he pressed it against her clit, the vibrations adding more pleasure.

"Moan for me, beautiful. I've dreamed of hearing you moan my name," he whispered as he flicked the vibrator on a higher level.

She gasped as her bundles of nerves reacted to the new vibration. She also loved knowing he thought about this before.

"Eddieeeeeee," she moaned as she clawed at his back. Her back arched as she felt herself cumming. She's positive this was a record speed for how quickly she needed to cum. "I need to cum, Eddie."

"Good girl, cum for me, baby. Let me fuck you through it," he encouraged as he allowed himself to get close. "Can I please fill you up?" He begged.

Her eyes rolled in the back of her head as she continued to cum. Her ears loved the sound of his choked begs.

"Yes,"

The second she said it, his stomach snapped. He tossed the vibrator to the side as he used his fingers. She squirmed as her clit burned. Moaning as he continued to fuck her.

"Oh my God, FUCK," she screamed as her cunt grew sensitive. Every thrust and circle pained her as another orgasm started building.

He dropped to his elbows as he gave his final thrusts, hot spurts of cum painting her insides. Both moaning at the feeling.

She figured the heat and burn would disappear, but nothing changed. Her cunt was soaked and now pulsing for more. Eddie noticed it within himself too, his cock already hardening inside of her.

He looked up at her, a sexy smirk as he slowly began to slide himself in and out of her. He watched her face to see how well she'd take him again. And he didn't see a slight bit of discomfort. She moaned, moving her hands down to his chest as she softly clawed.

"I'm not ready to be done with you, can you handle more?" He asked, halting his movements in case she wanted to be done.

"Yes, but I want to ride you," she admitted as she placed her palms against his chest and pushed. He slowly slid out of her.

A huge smile crossed his face as he dropped on his back, wrapping a hand around his cock. He slowly jerked himself as he looked at her. "You're breathtaking."

She blushed as she moved on top of him. She placed her hands on his hairy thighs and sank down on him.

"You'd kill me if you knew how many times I've thought of you in this position," he moaned as she began to bounce on him. He gripped her hips and helped her move her hips.

"I probably should but this feels too good to care," she moaned. Her body was feeling things she had never known before. She couldn't get enough of how amazing he felt inside of her.

He laughed, sitting up as he wrapped his arms around her. She wrapped her arms around his neck as she used the new balance to bounce faster. He sucked on her neck, loving the taste of her sweat. She yanked out his hair, letting his curls fall on his shoulders.

"Why did we never think to do this before?" She asked as she shivered in pleasure. They could've been doing this for years at this point, instead of robbing themselves of how amazing their bodies worked together.

He released her neck as he pulled back to look at her. He was sure it was an in-the-moment comment, but he thought the same thing for months. "Didn't think you'd ever see me that kind of way."

Her hips slowed at the honesty in his voice. Her heart melted for him. She rolled her hips forward as she brought her arms around his neck. The closeness made the moment more passionate as she looked into his eyes. "I see you in the best kind of way."

He smashed his lips on hers, thrusting his hips up to fuck her as she moaned into the kiss

It didn't matter how much they touched each other. Or how deep he was in her. The burning desire for each other wasn't lessening. It was making them want it more and for it to never end.

She rocked her hips against him, feeling a familiar burn in her stomach. Eddie felt every strand of his hair soaked in sweat, sticking to his face.

"Fuck you're so beautiful, so wet, so perfect around me," he praised, biting his lip as he fucked up in her as hard as he could. "I could fuck you for the rest of my life."

Her heart pounded at his words. Breath hitching as she bounced on him. "Yeah? You promise?"

"Is that what you want? To be wrapped around my cock forever?" He whispered as her breath fanned his face. Her body reacted to him by squeezing around him. "Fuck do that again."

She repeated the action, loving how he let out a long moan. "Tell me you want it too," she whispered, her lips inches above his.

"I want you for the rest of my life," he admitted. He shocked himself by saying it but he meant it. "I think I'm in love with you."

She froze on top of him, blinking a thousand times. Did he just admit he was in love with her?

"No, I know I'm in love with you," he corrected. His hands ran up her back, holding the back of her head as he brought her lips against his.

She kissed him back. She moaned into his mouth as his left hand moved down to her clit. She pulled away, smiling in pleasure and bliss.

"I love you too," she confessed. Her forehead was against his as she felt her orgasm building. She rocked her hips against him, soaking in the feeling of his fingers on her clit. "Make me cum."

"My pleasure," he smirked, cockily circling her clit as she began to fall apart.

She felt her stomach burn with the familiar feeling, she leaned down and sank her teeth into his shoulder as she came again. Eddie growled out at the feeling, loving the harsh sting as she broke his skin.

~~~

Eddie woke up to the sound of a phone ringing. He rubbed his eyes as he looked around. His room was a mess, everything scattered everywhere, shit was falling off his walls, and his desk was no longer together properly.

The ringing continued, and Eddie felt a body next to him move. A reminder of who helped him create the mess. He gulped as he looked over at her. She was still asleep, on her stomach as she faced the other direction. He slowly got up, hissing as he stood up straight. A burning sensation ran all over his back, he wrapped his sheet around him and he practically limped as he walked to get the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Eddie. I talked to Robin and Nancy, and we all think something was up with that plant. We are going to meet up to talk about it, can we meet at your place? Call Y/N too," Steve said. Eddie agreed to meet them and hung up.

He walked towards his room, Y/N awake as she held a blanket around her body as she looked for her clothes.

"Morning, um, Steve wants us to meet here to talk about something," back to his shy self, Eddie turned around to give her privacy.

"Okay, yeah. Just gonna go get ready!" She squealed as she gathered her clothes and ran towards the bathroom. Once the door slammed, Eddie changed into new clothes. His body was sore which made everything harder, he was curious if her body was in any pain.

He held his shirt in his hand, waiting for her to exit the bathroom.

"Oh! You um, still are...not dressed," she said as she awkwardly tried not to look at his naked heavily marked chest. She felt her face burn as she saw all the hickies and scratch marks.

"Yeah, I kinda need help with my back. Could you put this on me?" He stood up and handed her the small tube of ointment. She gasped as he turned, his back far worse than his chest.

"Oh fuck, is it bad?" He asked upon hearing her gasp. She was embarrassed for what she left behind, but also enjoyed having her mark all over him.

"Just a lot of them. This might sting," she warned as she began to rub the ointment along his skin.

Just like that, the same fire burned in his stomach as she touched him. But this time, his brain was awake and active. Making him think logically that whatever happened yesterday only happened because of that damn plant.

He couldn't get excited by the feeling of her hands rubbing his back. Or how her breath hit his skin and made his spine straighten.

After she finished, he turned around. As they stared at each other, the air got thicker. She blew out a nervous breath.

"Can we talk quickly? I want to talk about some things we said last night." She asked

"Maybe after?" Eddie asked, feeling like he needed to throw up. He was nervous about what she wanted to say and he wanted time to deal with it.

"Um, yeah," she nodded. Her stomach turned with anxiety. She didn't want to wait. She wanted to clear the air about what happened and she needed to know how he felt about it. She turned around and walked out to his living room, needing to be out of his room and the aftermath of themselves.

Eddie took a few deep breaths and walked out. He walked to his front door and left it unlocked. He wanted to sit next to her but he felt terrified. So, he sat on the opposite side. Y/N felt the blow to her chest but tried not to show it. They never sat this far apart. The air was awkward as they sat in silence.

A loud commotion came from outside as everyone traveled in. Steve, Robin and Nancy all stood in front of the couch.

Steve awkwardly coughed as he started, "So, Nancy and I did some research about the plant we saw. I'm going to be blunt, I did things I wish I never thought of."

Y/N scrunched her face, uncomfortable with the idea of her friend sleeping with each other.

"I can't even look at myself," Robin laughed as she tried to make light of the situation.

"Moral of the story," Nancy said as she rolled her eyes, "It was a sex pollen plant. And we are moving past it and nothing happened!"

"Sex pollen?" Y/N questioned out loud, "Never heard of it."

Eddie was silent as he listened. It was confirmed that the plant was the reason all of that happened. He knew he wanted to do it because he liked her. But she did it because of the damn pollen.

"Wanna go get food?" Steve asked as he clapped. Everyone nodded, ready to move on from the awkward conversation.

Y/N grabbed Eddie's hand before he walked out, "We still need to talk."

"It was the pollen, it's okay. We can move past it like they all did," he explained. She dropped his hand and accepted his answer. Clearly, there was nothing else behind what happened.

She was absolutely shattered. And it hurt that he refused to talk about it. He admitted he was in love with her and now wanted to pretend it never happened.

~~~

A few weeks passed and Y/N tried to be okay with not expressing how she felt to Eddie. She tried to fake it and return to normal. It seemed everyone else did.

Robin, Nancy, and Steve didn't seem like anything happened between any of them. Y/N was never going to ask for details so she had no idea who got involved with who, and she was fine with not knowing.

Y/N walked up to the small diner as the gang was meeting for breakfast. She walked in and everyone was already sitting. She slid in on the end next to Eddie.

"I wish I could bleach my eyes so I wouldn't have the vision of it anymore," Steve laughed. The table laughed with him and Y/N wasn't sure what the topic was.

"I know. I'm ashamed of my own body. I didn't think it could do all it did," Robin shivered.

"Me too. I feel like I can never go to church again," Nancy groaned as she covered her face.

Y/N figured it was about the recent event they all moved on from, except her.

"All I know is if I see that plant again, I'm walking away because I never want to experience that again. Horrified from that night" Eddie laughed. The table joined in but Y/N felt a kick to her gut.

She hugged herself as she felt embarrassed. Was having hours of sex with her that horrible? She'd be fine to do it all over again but that's where they were different. She was in love with him and he got infected. She meant what she said and confessed, and it was all a joke to him.

"What about you? You haven't said anything about what you did," Steve said as he looked at her. Y/N felt her body burn as everyone turned to look at her.

"I'd prefer not to talk about it," Y/N said. She didn't want to say anything after the horrific comment Eddie made.

Eddie gave her a side glance, slightly relieved she didn't say anything. He was sure she was horrified by what she did with him. And wanted to take back everything she said. Which is why he kept hiding from the conversation he knew she wanted to have.

They accepted her answer, finally moving on from the topic.

~

The second Y/N got home she allowed herself to cry in the comfort of her room. She admitted everything to that boy and he wanted to erase the night from history. She felt crushed and heartbroken.

She should have known Eddie wouldn't touch her that way without a substance. She should have known he wasn't the type to say how he felt and that everything he said wasn't true.

She hated that she was the only one who seemed to have true feelings about what she did. The rest of the gang clearly could move on. Eddie didn't mean anything, and she was stuck feeling everything.

~~~

Y/N had to distance herself a bit from Eddie because everything was still hurting. She couldn't face him knowing she meant everything she said and did. He'd probably laugh in her face if he knew that.

Eddie noticed the distance, but he understood why she needed it. She fucked the freak and now had to deal with the thought of it. He was disappointed that the events ruined their friendship because that's what he was scared of the most. He spent days ignoring how he felt for her so she didn't leave. And now, she is gone.

He went from spending every day with her to nothing at all for two straight weeks. He missed her.

He called Steve over for help, which meant he was desperate.

"Y/N has been a ghost to me for like two weeks. I don't want to rush her or anything, but I mean, we are all in the same boat. We all were infected by that pollen and did things with each other. But you three all moved on like nothing happened. How did you do it? How can I make it easier for her?" Eddie asked question after question.

Steve looked at him, confused, "Wait, did you two sleep with each other? Like as in you and Y/N had sex!"

"I don't understand how you are confused by that," Eddie rolled his eyes, "obviously we had sex otherwise there wouldn't be an issue!"

"Wow," Steve said, a slow smirk forming on his face, "you guys really fucked? Was she any good?"

"I'm about three seconds away from decking you in the face," Eddie growled, "You have Nancy, don't worry about how Y/N is."

Steve backed up from the threat but laughed at Eddie's clear jealousy. "Alright, calm down. Clearly, she's all yours; I got that. Nancy, Robin and I were all alone when we dealt with the pollen. I did research on it and everything. It's basically just a pollen that makes you crazy horny, barely able to satisfy it and that's why it continues on for hours. None of us had sex with each other. It doesn't make you desire whoever is with you. That's not how it works. So whatever you and Y/N did, came straight from your guys. Just with a push," Steve explained.

"But maybe it's because we were together when it happened! So we desired each other" Eddie tried to explain.

"I was with Nancy in the same car when I started to feel it. Touching her or sleeping with her never crossed my mind," Steve said as he crossed his arms. He leaned back against Eddie's couch, "You my friend are in love with her and that's why it happened."

"Woah now," Eddie laughed, "I never said anything about love."

Steve rolled his eyes but a playful smile on his face. "Don't bother trying to cover it. I told you, I did all the research. It doesn't make you feel anything you haven't already felt. And it doesn't make you say anything you didn't mean. Whatever happened between you two, happened because of how you guys already felt."

Eddie soaked in his words, his stomach fluttering as he thought about everything they said during their time together. "So, let's say she admitted to loving me and something like that. That's the truth? Not the pollen?"

"Bingo," Steve smiled as he leaned forward, "So, seriously, how was it?"

Eddie rolled his eyes, but a smile broke on his face. Steve shoved him as he saw the smile.

"You totally are into her!"

"Oh shut up!"

~

Eddie was terrified to face his feelings but he wasn't going to be the reason he lost her. The only way she's allowed to leave his life is by her decision. He'll never drive her there and he'll beg before she does.

All he had to do was admit he was in love with her. He was doubting himself, but losing her forever scared him more than any confession. He already had the suspicion she felt the same, if what Steve said was true. It gave him comfort he wouldn't be shooting in the dark.

He softly knocked on her bedroom window, the moon his only form of light. She took a deep breath as she flipped her lamp on. Only one person knocked on her window, and truthfully she missed him. She quickly got out of bed and walked over, unlocking it and allowing him inside. She shivered as she felt the cold night air, shutting the window.

"Well, at least you are prepared for me to stay. That has to be a good sign," Eddie tried to joke as she closed the window, instead of leaving it open for an early exit.

She smiled at him and walked to sit on her bed. "You don't have to be so nervous," she said as he stood in one spot. "You can sit. I won't bite you."

"Liked it last time you did," he joked back as he sat next to her. The joke landed flat as she awkwardly looked away. "Moving on. I just want to check on you. I understand things are a little weird for us. But I don't want you to think I'm not here for you."

Her heart swelled at his words, she turned to look at him with a soft smile. "I appreciate that. I'm sorry I've been weird. I just needed more time to move on. But I've missed my best friend."

He ignored the sadness he felt when she called him her best friend. He was glad he was, but he wanted to be something more to her. A best friend that's in a boyfriend.

"Did you need more time to move on because you meant what you said?" He threw the question out there like a grenade. No warning as it landed in her lap.

She hugged herself, looking down at her lap. "We don't need to do this, Eddie." She heavily sighed, "You said it yourself that we can move on like they all did and I don't want to make you relive such a horrifying memory of what sex is like with me."

Eddie kicked himself as the words were tossed back at him. She remembered what he said; that meant it stuck with her, and he felt like an asshole.

"I found out from Steve that none of them had sex with each other. It was just us," he explained. That caused her to look at him.

She shrugged as she thought it over, "probably because we were with each other."

"That's what I said. But it turns out, the pollen makes you crazy horny and nothing else. Steve said everything we did and said was because it was already in our body, the desire and tension. The pollen was just a push."

She looked at him horrified, her body burning in embarrassment. "That was far more than a push!" She covered her face with her hands. She liked the idea of blaming the pollen for the crazy shit she did to her best friend. It was embarrassing enough to have a crush, but now she did every sexual fantasy she thought of with him, and it was because she wanted to.

She wasn't sure if she wanted to die more because he knew she loved him or because he knew she wanted to fuck him.

"But isn't it nice to know we wanted to?" He asked, trying to remove her hands but she wouldn't budge.

"No, Edward. I want to cry in a hole and disappear. Because now, you know how I feel and I can't even blame it on that fucking plant!" Then it hit her, he couldn't blame the plant either.

She slowly removed her hands as she looked over at him. He was bent down as he tried to look into her eyes. His brown eyes looked at her with worry and softness.

"You...you said things too!" She gasped, pointing at him. "You! You told me you think about me sexually all the time. And that you-"

Eddie covered her mouth with his hand, "Yeah, I was there, gorgeous. I don't need you to remind me." He blushed embarrassed. "I meant the other things I said too."

She had never seen Eddie so serious. Not a single twinkle of tease in his eye or a twitch of his mouth. He slowly removed her hand.

She couldn't believe it. Years spent thinking about how good they'd be together, how much more love she could offer him if they went past friends. And it was truly something that could happen. She teared up at the thought. All the hurt she felt pining after him and it all was worth it.

He cupped her face as the first tear dropped. He wiped it away, licking his lips. "Are you okay?"

"Do you want to do this?" She whispered, looking down at his lips.

"Yes," he said without hesitation. Then finally, his lips pressed against hers. She eagerly kissed him back. She had been craving to do this again and she figured she never would. But fuck, she's glad she was wrong.

Eddie softly pushed her on her back as he crawled on top of her. The kiss deepened as he moved his hands down her body, swinging her leg around his waist.

She ran her fingers through his hair, head in the clouds. She pulled away, moving her hands to rest on his shoulders as she looked up at him.

"I love you," he whispered as he leaned in to press his forehead against hers. His eyes staring into hers, his warm hands on her hips.

"I love you too," she smiled, leaning up to softly kiss his lips.

PART II — INTRO & AU LORE

Love interest?

I get why some people avoid including a love interest or keep Percy single during these time travel AUs—especially considering canon Percabeth. But in my fic, Percabeth doesn’t exist, and honestly, I need angst to keep the children of Aphrodite entertained. So here are my two main contenders:

(Mortals are out of the question. Percy, being on the path to ascension—or with inevitable ascension—wouldn’t consciously get involved with a mortal knowing how painful it would be for both.)

My bets are on Apollo and Hermes. They both have a lot in common:

• They’re charismatic, and Percy knows them in the future. In the past, they’re feared but not described as especially awful.

• They’re not married or romantically linked to any major divine partner (unlike Ares and Aphrodite, often treated like a couple).

• The potential for fluff and angst is just too good to resist.

Personally, I went with Hermes. I wanted to explore something I’ve never seen before. And trust me, now that I’m developing it, I kind of regret it—it’s more complicated in some ways—but I think it’s worth it. Besides, there are already tons of Perpollo fics (I married that ship).

Does Percy return to her time?

Yes, but not in the way people expect. Her physical body vanishes in Ancient Greece, and her essence (I’m not sure what to call it—maybe her deified soul?) returns to the modern era. It’s like fate telling her: “You’ve fulfilled your purpose here” and “everything must return to where it belongs.” Even though she physically adjusted to the Hellenic world, she’s still a temporal agent with a mission to complete before returning.

When Percy returns to her body in the present, she remembers nothing of what happened (yes, it’s a cliché—but a beautiful one!). A while back, while diving into this fascinating AU, I read some amazing Tumblr blogs—ideas from anotheroceanid and chaoticdumbassrogue, if I'm not bad. Their fics inspired me so much that I even tried to figure out Tumblr (spoiler: still confused).

One of the ideas that stuck with me was Percy gradually recovering her memories during Son of Neptune. Imagine: a Percy trying to reclaim her identity at Camp Jupiter, while having flashes of her life as a goddess in ancient Hellas. An identity crisis of epic proportions—the mortal Percy and the divine Percy are one and the same, yet also not, like the Greek and Roman versions of the gods. And to make things worse, she’s furious about how everything she fought for turned out.

Interference and Time Paradox

Percy messes with a lot of stuff in the past, but she doesn’t break the space-time continuum or anything.

Everything she did was already meant to happen. Time always expected her to be there, saving the day or causing chaos, or both. As she was growing up, the past she’d eventually live through was already baked into the present. So she doesn’t change history—she completes it. Like that one puzzle piece nobody knew where to put until suddenly, perfect fit.

So why isn’t she mentioned anywhere?

She vanished, and slowly, so did her legacy. No goddess, no miracles, no prophecies. People started to forget. Her name stopped being spoken. Temples crumbled or got rededicated to other gods. Some of her deeds got misattributed, others erased. When the Romans took over, she got lost in translation.

Maybe there are scraps left. A weird myth with no clear hero. A statue with features that don’t match any known deity. Symbols no one can explain. But no one knows it was Percy.

Except the gods. They remember her. Some with warmth, some with guilt, but all of them know she was real. The sad part is, even after centuries, none of them managed to make mortals remember.

(Classic patriarchy erasing powerful women from history, right?)

Demigods non-human.

•Absence of menstruation.

•Alarmingly high pain threshold.

•Tendency to Depersonalization-derealization disorder.

•Severe forms of PTSD.

•Too loving and affectionate. the loss of any loved one is perceived extremely hard.

•Creepy appeal. They are too beautiful to be something natural and alive.

•Fearlessness. hardly anything from the mortal world can redeem them.

•Abnormal physical characteristics. too fast, too strong, too agile.

•Most often slight tendency to sadism.

•Predisposition to handling weapons. They are too good at learning how to shoot and use cold steel.

thnks for the ask!

oooh! i love this. yes to all of these!!

my thoughts on a few:

i don’t think sadism applies to all of them, and if it does i don’t think it’s constant. but it definitely is a trait that can come out in them at times. it’s the god in them, especially if they’re a kid of one of the more brutal gods. and i think when it does happen, in most cases, it’s when they’re inflicting pain upon their enemies. but for the demigods that aren’t good people… yeah, sadism - in all its ways - is definitely a more present trait in them than it is with humans.

the menstruation thing. i feel like this has to be true. there’s no way female demigods are dealing with periods while they’re trying to stay alive and go on quests. but then i always question how they get pregnant if they don’t menstruate. but then i always remember how they’re all born and what they’re composed of, and that logic and science doesn’t apply to them lol. (do we think there’s a special demigod birth control? or does normal stuff still work?)

and 100% yes on the abnormal physical abilities and characteristics. they can definitely be thrown around and beat up a lot more. i find myself reading the books and saying things like “how did she not just die?” and “he should be majorly concussed with every bone broken right now.” they are way more agile, way stronger, and way faster than humans. they’re just built different. literally.

i’m gonna add a couple things:

i think demigods have a tendency to be taller. i’m not saying they are all tall - there are certainly exceptions; we know hazel and leo are short - but i think the overall average height for them is taller than it is for humans. for instance, according to google, the average female height is 5’3 and the average male height is 5’7-5’8. but for demigods, i think it’s normal for female demigods to be between 5’5 and 5’8, and for males to be 6 foot or above, you know? like i think full grown piper is 5’6, annabeth 5’10, thalia 5’5-5’7, etc. i think full grown percy is like 6’2 to 6’3, jason around 6’3, frank 6’5, luke 6’1 or 6’2, will 5’11-6’0, etc. i just think they’re naturally taller.

i also definitely think demigods have a slightly non-human look to them, but i don’t think it’s necessarily because they’re all beautiful. a lot of them are, definitely, but not every one. personally, i think it’s all in their eyes. i just feel like when rick describes them, there is always a lot of emphasis on the eyes. annabeth’s are this super unique and intimidating gray and they look like storm clouds, piper’s are multiple colors and look like kaleidoscopes, etc. and i think this especially applies kids of the big 3. like thalia and jason have electric blue eyes, percy’s are a super unique and vibrant sea-green, and hazel’s are literally gold. nico is the only exception having dark brown eyes, but i think they’re still super distinguishable and have a certain wickedness to them. i just think all demigods’ eyes are very unique, intense, and vibrant. their eyes are beautiful and stunning, but also very unsettling if they’re staring at you. that’s the feature that i think makes demigods look not quite human

i’m sure i’ll think of more as soon as i post this lol.

other ideas and opinions welcome!

Non-stop Teasing - CYJ

🌷Pairing: Choi Yeonjun of TXT x fem!reader (3rd person used)

🌷 kinda enemies to lovers

🌷 Fluff? sort of angsty tho

🌷 warning: drinking, cussing, frat party, Yeonjun being kind of down bad

🌷There are a few other idols mentioned, some of them in a relationship with each other, I do not think these people are together nor do I ship them, I just felt like the story could have used these dort of relationships (ChaewonxWooyoung, KarinaxJeno)

🌷 Hey!! I am back because i felt like it. This fic is a fleeting idea i had a long time ago and was finally able to finish. In the beginning it was not meant for Yeonjun but it had mostly OC'S so if you see random names I'm sorry, I have yet to proofread it. Feel free to give me notes and feedback, as I appreciate it a lot!! 'Til next time <3

(not my GIF)

Yeonjun. Stupid, fucking Yeonjun.

Idiot, average-looking yet so stupidly attractive Yeonjun.

“If you really hate him you should stop staring at him, you know?” a blonde girl talked to her best friend, who shushed her in response.

“Shut up Chaewon, I’m not staring” Y/N retorted against her best friend.��

Except she was, and she knew it.

Another person in the library was also very aware of Y/N and what she was doing, because he could feel her eyes pierce through his head. 

And he loved it.

“Ask anybody here, they’ll say you’re staring,” Chaewon said in an amused tone, making Y/N’s eye twitch in frustration.

“Well, then it’s hate-staring, glaring if you will,” Y/N looked away from the boy and glared at her best friend, turning her head ever so slowly, as to recreate the scene in a horror movie.

“Just like I’m glaring at you right now.” Chaewon let out a laugh at her friend’s antics and shrugged it off.

“Sure thing, love. Keep telling yourself that.”Chaewon said. Y/N could only scoff before going back to look at her books.

Look was indeed the best word to describe what she was doing, the words on the page being read for the tenth time in as many minutes without understanding nor absorbing any of it. Biology sucked, and so did Y/N’s brain at that moment. So much so that after a couple of seconds she got distracted again.

“What is it with the stupid beanie anyway? Like what’s the deal with that? DO YOU THINK HE HAS A BALD SPOT?” Y/N whisper-screamed, making Chaewon almost spit out the water she was trying to drink after finally reaching the end of her chapter.

Suddenly the girls heard a louder voice coming from behind them.

“It’s actually for style-related purposes, no bald spot, though if you’re still in doubt you could always ask him. Also, Y/N, you were one hundred percent staring at Yeonjun, just FYI.” Wooyoung said whilst chuckling at the little jump the girls made upon hearing him. Y/N turned around, red in the face, a mixture of embarrassment for being caught and pure wrath, caused by Wooyoung’s presence.

“How long have you been here?” She said bitterly. The boy could sense she wanted to add something, the words dying in her throat a bit too fast. He assumed a “dickhead”, or “asshole” was missing, but he let it go, not teasing her any further. 

“The whole time, love,” he said mocking what Chaewon had said to her friend just a few minutes prior. Then turned away and returned to his spot at the same table with Yeonjun, Soobin and Changbin.

Y/N looked warily at her surroundings to make sure no one else was around to eavesdrop on them.

“How in actual hell are you able to like that guy?” Her shocked expression clearly visible on her features.

Chaewon shrugged.

“He just likes to tease you, he’s actually very nice” She answered, her cheeks turning slightly pink before continuing. 

“I mean it’s not like they’re the fuckboys group.” When Chaewon said that, Y/N was still looking at them and immediately turned around. 

“No, they’re worse, at least the fuckboys are self-aware of how awful they are” she sighed.

“Oh my God you’re so dramatic,” Chaewon said rolling her eyes before going back to typing at her computer. 

Y/N shut up and went back to try and drill a hole through Yeonjun’s head with her gaze, sadly, without any success.

As if on cue, the boy turned around, looked at her, smirked, and turned back to speak with Changbin, making her avert her gaze and awkwardly look around to find God knows what.

She couldn’t take it anymore, her heart pounding in her chest was beginning to feel like it was too much, she could literally hear it and the sensation made her shudder. She got up and headed to the bathroom searching for some quick fix to the sudden heat of her body.

As soon as she got there Y/N quickly splashed her face with some cold water to try and stop it from getting all red, failing miserably. She looked defeatedly at her reflection.

“This is a PSA for that tiny voice living at the back of my head, I am kindly asking you to shut up” She lightly hit her head with her hand in the process so that the point would go across. 

“You understand me??” The girl sighed and took a step back from the sink to exit the bathroom, but as soon as she turned around a familiar face was standing leaning on the door frame.

“Try hitting it harder next time, that should work better.” He chuckled lightly before taking a step towards her.

“This is the girls’ bathroom, Yeonjun” Y/N backed up and glared at him for what was probably the thousandth time that day.

“Sorry, I was headed to the guys’ bathroom but something here caught my attention” he smirked once again. 

Y/N was on the verge of breaking. That smirk. He had to know the effect it had on her. Or was it just a stupid habit of his? 

It didn’t really matter. Either way, she wanted to kiss him so badly right now. And subsequently, run away, completely change identities, go to Peru, and start a potato plantation or something, to hopefully never be found again. She would never EVER admit to wanting to kiss that boy.

Frustrated even more than before, she ran back to the table where Chaewon was waiting for her, shoving Yeonjun in the process, and making him audibly laugh, clearly enjoying how easily he could fluster her.

“I gotta go, or I’m going to be late for the party,” Chaewon said the moment she saw her best friend enter her view.

“Again” Y/N added to Chaewon’s statement, knowing how long the blonde usually takes to get ready. The other girl got up and quickly added:

“Remember, I’ll be at your dorm around 10 pm, we’ll see what to do from there. Remind Ryujin too when you get home, please.” Chaewon said while collecting all of her stuff and messily throwing it in her bag.

“Sure thing, I’ll finish this chapter and go home too in a half-hour or so. Don’t worry about Ryujin, knowing her, she’ll be all dressed up already. You know who you should be worried about, though.” Y/N answered, looking up from her books.

“I already texted Karina, I told her I’d be at hers around 9:30 so she’ll hopefully be ready when we actually get there.” The girl chuckled at her best friend’s trickery and waved her goodbye, mumbling a “perfect” in the meanwhile.

On her way out Chaewon was stopped in her tracks by a slightly taller figure.

“Hey there,” he sweetly addressed the girl.

“Hi Wooyoung, I’d love to stop and chat with you but I really need to go.”

“See you at the party, then” Chaewon looked at him surprised.

“You should really stop eavesdropping other people’s conversations. Besides, you don’t even know which party we were talking about, there’s like 5 every Friday night without counting the ones outside of campus” 

He gave her a playful smile and said “Don’t worry, I’ll figure it out.” The girl laughed and answered “Good luck, darling” before going her way.

After that Wooyoung quickly got back to the guys’ table where all of his friends were sitting, trying to finish some sort of group project.

“Okay, talking about important things, what do you guys know about parties tonight?” Wooyoung said, sitting down.

“You mean here in the campus? or in general? Also like, frat houses or bars?” Soobin started throwing questions at him to try and narrow down the search.

“I don't know, man, Chaewon was talking to the Menace and they said they were going to a party tonight.” Wooyoung just answered him calmly.

As soon as he heard the words “Menace” and “party” together in a sentence Yeonjun’s interest was piqued. He looked at Wooyoung, completely ignoring the semi-blank document opened in front of him.

“Well I don’t think they’d go off campus, the Menace is too lazy for that, she’d want to be as close to the dorm as possible.” Soobin started the brainstorming session.

“That still leaves like at least five or six parties” Changbin pointed out, then turned to Wooyoung and asked:

“Is it just the two of them?” to which Wooyoung quickly added Ryujin and Karina to the mix.

As soon as Karina’s name came up Changbin and Soobin looked at each other and said: “Keystone Lodge.”

“Is there something I don’t know?” Wooyoung asked given how the boys answered the place of the party seemed obvious but he had no idea.

“Karina’s boyfriend, Jeno. He’s in the frat.” Soobin pointed out.

“Okay but aren’t parties at KL like, invitation-only or something like that?” Changbin quickly raised the question.

Yeonjun, who had just started fantasizing about what could’ve happened at the party and had no intentions of having his dreams ruined just like that, said: “don’t worry guys, be prepared, I’ll text you later.” and quickly got up and gathered his things before exiting the library.

“Does he have to do it every time?” Soobin asked.

“He got it from Mark, says it gives him the surprise effect later on and the mysterious effect right away.” Changbin answered rolling his eyes, to which the other two guys only answered almost in awe with an “Ooh.” probably thinking it was the best idea a man could have.

“Okay, how did you get us in Yeonjun?” Wooyoung asked, almost alarmed at how quickly and seemingly easily their friend acquired the invitations.

“I know Haechan, and he owed me. He still does.” the older boy simply stated, raising Wooyoung's alarm instead of calming him down.

“Now let’s get this party started” Yeonjun exclaimed walking up the stairs to Keystone’s Lodge with a smirk on his face.

“You’re going to try and make her life hell, aren’t you?” Changbin said clearly amused at how his friend was planning on being even more annoying to Y/N than he usually was.

“Just wait and see Changbin, just wait and see.” the smirk on Yeonjun’s face growing with every step to the door he knocked on, where they found a guy standing alone, waiting for proof of invitations.

Inside the Frat house, the music was blasting. The air felt damp and everything smelled like cheap alcohol, adding to the mix the group of smoking boys at the far end of the room anyone could imagine that the atmosphere was not very romantic. Which is exactly what they expected.

Changbin went straight for the bar, getting everybody something to drink as the other guys scanned the room for their targets. 

Wooyoung quickly saw Chaewon sitting on the couch with her friends. They were talking to a few frat guys but they seemed nonthreatening enough to his ego. The Menace was sitting dangerously close to one of them, almost in his lap. Wooyoung could not recognize the guy though, no matter how much he squinted.

He nudged his friends and with a nod pointed the scene out, hoping they would get curious and approach them, so he could flirt with Chaewon once again. 

As soon as he realized what was going on, Soobin turned to look at Yeonjun’s reaction, gesturing to Changbin to hurry over, so he could witness it too because despite what those two liked to admit, they had this tension between them that was almost romantic. They were definitely, on some level, attracted to each other but they would never admit it. That’s why Changbin Soobin and Wooyoung were now staring at Yeonjun, hoping to catch a glimpse of whatever they had theorized.

Yeonjun’s brows furrowed. The night just started and everything had to be so simple already, not even a bit of a challenge. He sighed, took a drink from Changbin’s hands, and turned to Wooyoung. 

“Let’s go say hi to your princess, shall we?” Yeonjun told his friend, who was very happy about the poor lighting, meaning the other boys were not made aware of his rosy cheeks prompted by Yeonjun's comment.

As they approached, Chaewon saw them and a big smile tugged on her lips. She raised a hand to say hi and the boys did the same.

“Well Well Well, I’m surprised to see little Sherlock actually did find us.” She chuckled looking at Wooyoung.

“I told you I could do it. I’m very resourceful” he winked and the girl lightly laughed. 

Everybody then fell back into conversation, except Y/N and her mystery guy, who were so distracted by each other that they didn’t even say hi to the newcomers. 

Yeonjun cleared his voice. 

“I know you don’t like us Y/N but not saying hi is simply rude, even for you.” He smirked, knowing very well what it did to her.

The girl turned around, her surroundings didn’t make it easy to hear but she was sure she heard a voice talking to her. 

From her sitting position she looked at the new figures that had joined the conversation. And then she saw his face. She simply rolled her eyes.

“Who even invited you here? Seriously, please tell me so I can avoid the lunatic all night long, people just become crazier and crazier by the day”

“Actually,” Yeonjun chuckled.

The guy whom Y/N was talking to gently removed his hands from her hips, feeling a bit embarrassed. 

“I think that might have been me,” He said. 

Y/N looked at Haechan with a void expression.

“You’re his friend?” She asked, not believing it for a moment.

Haechan was slightly taken aback by the question, thinking the answer to be obvious, so he simply answered:

“Yeah?” at which Y/N glared at both the boys.

“That’s a shame, I really liked you.” And with that, she got up and went to the bar to pour herself yet another drink. The alcohol was probably what made her act so suddenly with that silly explanation but even sober her had no intention of being affiliated in any way with Yeonjun.

Seeing how Y/N was behaving, the boy thought that his mission was going to be such a delight with how simple she was making it.

Yeonjun followed her, leaving behind their friends absorbed in whatever conversation, and a very confused Haechan sitting on the couch.

As Y/N approached the bar, she bumped into a few people obstructing passages left and right and leaving her even more annoyed than she already was.

She took one of the red cups and poured herself some beer. 

Not the ideal drink but it was the first thing her hands were able to grasp. 

As she was about to take a sip, a hand snatched her drink.

“Thanks, I was very thirsty,” Yeonjun told her, earning a glare once again that day.

“How do you manage to be so annoying Yeonjun?” Y/N said while pouring another cup, this time she grabbed some gin, sensing she would need something stronger than a beer.

“I give it my best, just for you” he grinned.

Y/N couldn’t help but groan as she looked for the soda to mix her drink.

“What did I ever do to you? Have I offended you in any way? Are you holding a grudge from your past life?? Why do you like to annoy me so much??” She sighed in defeat.

“Woah,” Yeonjun said taken aback by the sudden seriousness of the question.

“Well, for starters I could ask you the same thing…” He answered calmly.

As she started to protest he shushed her.

“Buut, I am not going to lie, I do find you very cute when you’re frustrated” He chuckled.

“Are you hitting on me?” She asked, mouth agape.

“Do you want me to be hitting on you?” There it was again. The stupidest grin on the face of the earth. If there was a way to wipe it off instantly, Y/N would’ve gladly taken that chance. Thinking about it, there was a way, and to be honest she had reluctantly considered that way many times before, but always ended up avoiding it.

A kiss was not the solution, everything it could’ve done was only create more problems.

She was snapped back to reality by Yeonjun waving his hands in front of her eyes. She had been staring at the grin for god knows how long. A faint red was starting to tint her cheeks.

“You want to kiss me so badly,” Yeonjun told her, the grin never leaving his face.

She tried to play it as cool as possible, hoping the poor lighting of the room helped her conceive the blushing situation.

“Projecting much?” She smiled turning on her heels, determined to get out of the house for some fresh air.

As she walked away Yeonjun screamed over the music.

“I never said I wouldn’t like it” Y/N briefly stopped in her tracks, surprised by the sudden confession. Thinking it was just another way of getting under her skin she slowly reached the door and opened it, stepping out onto the backyard.

“You just love messing with her, don’t you?” Chaewon said as she approached Yeonjun, Wooyoung by her side, holding her waist.

“I have a tendency not to lie, actually. Everything I said is true. She’s just… compelling” he tried to find the best word to describe her.

“Compelling? You mean messing with her like that is compelling?” Chaewon said, a bit offended that Yeonjun enjoyed toying with her friend’s emotions like that.

“Tell me Chaewon, when have I ever done anything truly bad to her? All I do is tease, in her opinion, when in reality I was always simply…” Yeonjun said, meanwhile Chaewon tried to start a list of all the times he’s gotten you frustrated and quickly realized most times it was just his very annoying, twisted way of ... 

“Flirting,” Chaewon said, shocked. She looked at him straight in the eyes, her expression painted with shock.

“Oh my God, you just flirt with her” Chaewon continued. She suddenly realized that every time Yeonjun ever talked to Y/N he was flirting, and that enraged her friend for some reason. He never actually DID anything bad to her. He never insulted her, let alone take action to actively ruin her day. The only times he did something of the sort she was always with a guy, like 10 minutes ago with Haechan. Yeonjun was always just… flirting with Y/N.

“I am very confused.” Wooyoung said looking at his two friends.

“You never admitted it to us and it takes you like three seconds to tell it to her best friend? I kinda hate you and I am not sure I would like to be friends with you anymore.” Wooyoung continued while watching Yeonjun's every move and acting offended.

“It’s not like you guys ever really asked, I thought it was obvious if I have to be honest. She’s pretty, she’s smart, she can be a pain in the ass but she’s one of the nicest and kindest people I ever met. Not with me, which I can not really comprehend, but if teasing her incessantly is the only way I can get her to interact with me I don’t think I will ever stop.” Yeonjun said earnestly to his friend. A small smile appeared on his features, almost sheepishly.

A voice behind him startled him right after.

“What did he just say??” it was Changbin, who basically screamed in his ear after he heard just half of the confession.

“I think he likes the Menace!!” Soobin screamed at Changbin (and in Yeonjun’s other ear) in hopes of being understood over the loud music.

Meanwhile, Y/N was outside, freezing because she forgot to bring a jacket. 

Why did he have to always be so annoying, why did he always have something to say that would just make her heart beat at a worrying speed? Why did she have to like him so fucking much?

As her mind birthed the last few words she stopped pacing back and forth on the grass.

Of course, she liked him. It seemed as if every stupid decision she could make she would take and this was not even a conscious one. 

It would explain why her fight or flight response would kick in every time he would even just look in her direction, and her choice was fight. 

Thinking about kissing him all those times was not just a stupid silly thought. 

Y/N was hopeless.

"So?" The question was raised suddenly by a voice she recognised immediately.

He was standing right there, in front of her, handing her her jacket.

She happily took it, silently thanking him with a smile before muttering.

"So what?" her eyes looking at him defeated. She liked him and he was just playing. He was just teasing, and look where all that teasing led her. A terrible position she never wanted to be in.

"Am I getting that kiss you so badly want to give me?" Here he goes again. Non-stop teasing.

This time Y/N did not find it in her to fight, not him nor the feelings she finally realized she had.

"You should be more careful with your words Yeonjun, one might think you actually want it, crave it even" she said calmly before chuckling lightly. She was now sitting down on the bench and her gaze was everywhere but the boy's figure.

"As I said when you were storming off, I do think I'd enjoy it" he slowly sat down beside her, surprised by her tone. This felt more like an actual conversation now. It didn't seem like she had any intention of fleeing this time around. Just them two, talking like normal people. It was new and he liked it. He liked it more than words could explain.

"Stop teasing me please, I honestly don't think I can take it anymore. I won't be bothering you again if you promise me you will leave me alone without uttering any other word that you don't mean" If someone were to pass by and listen very closely, the sound of Yeonjun's heart could be heard as it was cracking and falling apart like glass under extreme heat.

She didn't want to see him anymore, but what was worse is that she didn't think his words were honest. She thought he didn't mean it, ever.

He meant it from the first smile he flashed her, from the first hello he said. The first time he saw her he was struck by lightning and did not feel like himself anymore. All he could do was think about her, all he wanted to do was to speak with her. He did not care if it meant he had to endure rolling eyes and frustrated groans, at the very least he was interacting with you.

"So?" this time she asked the question. Her eyes showed how hurt she was and he could barely look at them.

As he turned to face her, Y/N noticed tears welling up in his eyes. She didn't understand.

"You really think I don't mean it? Y/N you consume my thoughts in the best and worst way ever. I think about you all the time. All I ever want to do is speak with you and I don't care if it means you'll hate me, I won't stop doing it because I am selfish like that. I don't want to feel miserable, and the only way I have to do that is if I speak to you. You can tell me you despise me a thousand times but I won't care as long as you're in front of me, addressing me, acknowledging my presence." As Yeonjun spoke Y/N could not believe his words. 

If it was just minutes ago she would've joked about how "you're so obsessed with me, jeez" but at that moment the expression on Yeonjun's face was making her want to cry. It seemed like he meant it.

He did mean it.

"You like me?" she asked, furrowing her brows in confusion.

"I think like is a bit of an understatement at this point..." he chuckled looking into the distance, the palms of his hands rubbing against each other awkwardly.

Y/N moved closer to him. He did not register how close she got until she turned his head towards her with her hand.

They stared at each other, they are not sure for how long. It could have been mere seconds or hours on end. Then she moved closer and finally kissed him. 

She tilted her head as he deepened the kiss. 

Everything felt good. They were finally happy.

Hi! First of all, I want to say I really appreciate your videos - they have given us all such a newfound appreciation for minsung 😍

I have seen some theories floating around since the fan meeting about Lee Know and his friend who dressed as Leebit during the whole of the fanmeeting. We all know that Lee Know often jokes that people are his boyfriends (this friend, Han, even Hyunjin) so generally no one takes those comments seriously but some people have started wondering whether they are actually in a relationship and whether this is a soft launch of sorts (it seems the argument is that being in a mascot costume for hours over three days just seems like a lot for just a friend). It also would make sense Han knows him since Han (all things aside) is very close to LK. I’m curious whether you have any general views on this?

I have also always seen LK as the type to like to keep his personal emotions, feelings and life quite private. I have shipped Minsung for a while now but I am curious to hear from you what you think about the fact that they have become much more “obvious”/affectionate lately - do you think that could suggest they’re not actually in a relationship (since both LK and Han seem like the private type to me) or that it’s the company trying to push minsung or do you think something has changed that has made them more open to expressing themselves? I’m loving it personally but it was shy LK (the “do you like me in that way?” comment) that made me start shipping them so I guess I am just not sure what to do with the major escalation in minsung land over the past few months.

Thanks again!

I’ve seen the discourse around the whole friend thing and I have to giggle. I think a lot of fans misunderstood what LK said when talking about his friend. He said that he was the friend that took “boyfriend” photos of him which is a common term that's used to describe how a photo is taken, not that he was the guy who he jokingly called “boyfriend” in the vlog to get a reaction out of Han. Idk if its the same friend though (unless anyone else here knows lmao).

And about them being “open” I think there’s a huge difference between stuff meant to get the audience hyped up (i.e: the teleprompter stuff at the Japan concerts) and them just naturally gravitating towards each other, interacting, or laughing together at something (which is like 90% of the their moments we got during the fanmeet, outside of their duet during the first day, the quick WSB performance, and maybe the sign that Han answered to). Other duos I say were more blatant about things during those three days (For ex. LK and CB playfully fighting over HJ, 2min’s antics on stage, FeIix/LK almost kissing eo on stage, etc.)

I think many fans underestimate how private they actually are together. It’s just that every moment of theirs gets hyped up since they’re a popular duo, even if other duos are much more (open?) about things (i.e: JiIix pretending to kiss eo, CB playfully flirting with HJ all the time). 

The members have said it during the 2022 kids room that they’re generally secretive about their bond and we see that even more in recent times. Remember when they went to France a couple of months back and fans saw each duo spend time together in their spare time? (The Maknaes, HyunIix, LK/Han, Chan/Changbin?) and then a week or so later we literally got a SKZ TaIker of vlogs of EVERY duo except LK/Han. The only thing we got was Han verbally saying that they spent time together. 

And then there’s the 2kids show episode where they were very visibly nervous (during the first half especially), they would downplay their bond like, “I don’t know this guy!” “We don’t pay attention to eo!” “The only time we hang out is when the fans see us!” and LK quickly fumbling over the whole we don’t need to sneak out thing, etc. (before they eventually loosen up a bit and contradict themselves on some things). I think a lot of things from that episode cemented them being private about things. Cause if it was all jokes and sayings to get the fans hyped up I don’t think they would have been nervous at all. They would freely joke about things like FeIix/CB did, for example.

Outside of the stage (where all of the members seem to visibly relax and have fun), they seem very “gatekeepy” about a lot of things they do together, especially in recent times, compared to prior years.

Personal opinion: I also think because other members/duos are very visibly affectionate on camera (some even more than LK/Han) and have been so since forever, that would probably make them feel more comfortable to be so as well.

Wolff!reader and Mick thought:

I’ve always imagined that with a good team and the right support that Mick has just as much potential as Lewis and have my fingers crossed that when a seat a Mercedes opens Mick would be able to take it. And I can see Toto being conflicted about the relationship, worried about how it affects interpersonal relations in the company, but also the emotional/relationship stress that his daughter dating a driver would cause her (even though Mick is a sweet angel baby. I’m sure it’s still tough between the travel/distance and negativity from “fans”) which is exactly what happened when news leaks of their relationship and because I’m a sucker for the accidental pregnancy trope in a fic Little Wolff and Mick find out they’re expecting. And they keep it hidden. This is something they they’re not telling anyone. Not family not friends. This is a Mick/Little Wolff/Angie secret. And maybe Toto overhears them mention their baby. Assumes that they’re talking about Angie (they nearly gave him a heart attack the first time that they referred to the sweet doggo as such so he’s since learned to not jump to conclusions). Thankfully their due dates is during break. They have a beautiful healthy baby in Switzerland where they live. They invite Toto and the family up for a visit. They’re very insistent won’t take no for an answer. Toto is curious, he’s fully except to be told that Mick has finally popped the question. And while he would have liked if Mick spoke to him about the matter, he also knew that he had no say, but that was still his baby. So when they turn up and it’s Mick that meets them at the door, without Little Wolff and leads them into the master bedroom to see his little one hold a little one. Toto heart just stops. He’s too stunned to speak. While he kinda wants to smash another set of headphones just to help process his emotions, his little Wolff looks up with watery eyes and then holds out her hand and he’s just making these long strides to her bedside and kneeling down. 1st questions is if she’s okay. then the questions about if the baby is okay. then the questions of why they kept it a secret. they give the above mentioned reasons. And he’s just melting. Man is ready to retire on the spot. Doesn’t want to travel for Mercedes anymore. Wants a room in the house so he can stay with the two while Mick is away.

yes!!!!!! you just added a new layer to this hehehe you're convincing me to the accidental pregnancy trope though it's not my fav. I don't know if they would keep it a secret like that, I see wolff!reader and mick very much into their family, it's something important for them, and especially wolff reader, she would share a lot with her dad. So I think they would tell toto, susie, corinna and gina, and that's it. maybe keep it a secret for a couple of months, but not during the whole pregnancy cuz I think this would somehow hurt them, not have the opportunity to experience such an intimate and vulnerable moment of their lives.

Man is ready to retire on the spot. // omg yes hahaha grandpa wolff is ready!

(you described it with so many details that now I'm thinking about this scenario and how maaaaaaybe they would keep ti a secret indeed *eyes emoji*)

How do monster stats work?

What would someone see if they "Checked" one of the skeletons?

Ehehehehe finally this question is getting answered!!!

Ok so when someone performs a “check”, they see five things: LV, HP, DF, AT and status

LV:

Level of love, or basically how many kills this monster has had. This stat will show as 0 for any monster/human who’s never killed, a first kill is set firmly at 1 and the number increases slowly with the more violence the monster/human has performed.

LV climbs slowly, so high numbers are a lot harder to achieve than you think. The majority of fell monsters only have an LV around 1-3, and the highest number in recorded history was Laios the Violent, a ruler in outerfell during the war between monsters and humans. His LV was said to be 35 before he finally died. Truly a beast.

The highest LV of all the skeletons would be coffee who has a solid 9. Next is butch who has a 8.7.

Monsters who are LV sick and past the controllable stages LV stat will change to a fuzzy unreadable blob instead of a number.

HP:

This stat reflects the status of the body, mind and souls health. For humans, their number rarely goes down for emotional damage except in moments of crisis, but for monsters who’s souls are directly connected to their bodies, strong emotional damage can read the same as actually being physically damaged

The average HP of a healthy human is between 500-800, and the average HP of a healthy monster is between 450- 600.

The base number of a humans/monsters HP can be increased or decreased based on how fit they are mentally and physically, so often a persons base number fluctuates over time.

Monsters with dimming never see their HP go past 100

Any monster who becomes a royal gets a massive boost to their HP through the ritual, putting them at average 1600-2200.

DF:

DF, or the defense stat, is a number describing how sturdy one is against magical attacks. Defense has nothing to do with actual physical armor and cannot be increased by any outside force.

The average DF for humans is very narrow, between 30-40. For monsters it’s a lot more flexible with any number between 1-100.

Through intense training of one’s magic, it is possible to increase DF, but it really doesn’t change too much. Masters at combat often report their stat only going up a couple points over their whole lifetime

AT:

AT describes the power behind a monsters magic attack, not their physical attacks or strength.

AT is a stat that only appears in humans who have access to their souls, so it only shows in witches. In a normal human, the spout where a check shows AT is left blank

AT can range anywhere between 1-100 for monsters, and for mages and witches that range increases to 1-130.

For royals, they get a boost of 35 to their AT in addition to whatever their base number was before

AT is directly related to HP so, when a healthy monster/witch trains and gets fitter, they can see their AT increase, as well as when they become sickly it decreases. Its rates of increase and decrease are much smaller than HP though.

The average monster will lie between 15-30 in AT, above average is 31-45 and anything beyond that is considered incredibly talented regardless of monster type

STATUS:

The status is a very brief summary of how that person is doing. It usually shows as a short sentence like “darling is craving something sugary” or “mister is anxious about his upcoming test”. It rarely goes into detail unless the monster being checked wants someone to see what they can’t say.

Here’s a little example of what you’d see in a check, using sans!

Sans Wingdings

LV: 0

HP: 380/380

DF: 9

AT: 12

STATUS: “yes he’s aware this raises more questions than answers”

And last but not least, a few more facts about checks

It’s considered very rude and invasive to perform a check without permission, one never does this to a stranger unless they’re sure they’ll win a fight with them lol.

When a human joins a coven and trains to be a witch, the first spell they’ll learn is how to perform a check

In order to become a professional fighter (magic sparring) one needs a DF stat of at least 15 or higher. Anything lower than that is considered a high risk for permanent injury and won’t be allowed in any competitions.

In order to join the royal guard, you need a minimum of 10 DF and 15 AT.

The royal with the highest DF is Asgore with a whopping 89

The royal with the highest AT is toriel with a whopping 105.

It’s impossible to hide performing a check as it’s a very “loud” sensation. People have described their soul being checked as similar to feeling their insides being “wrapped up”. It’s not painful, but definitely uncomfortable if you’re not expecting it.

What is Edmund’s prefect like?

He’s a cute, a bit serious boy! He’s busy most of the time and runs around a lot, but otherwise really helpful to his housemates and Edmund in particular. Eli (his name) is the first person from his house Edmund talks the most to. Mostly because Eli usually gives him extra tasks and explains how stuff works... I’d love to show you a design too, but I don’t have it yet lol He’s a bit short and has black hair, that’s as much as I can describe for now.

Anonymous asked:

I’m sorry, I meant would Lilia taken a liking to Edmund! I should’ve been clearer

It’s ok! Most of my replies are very messy and hard to read just in general, it’s hard for me to express my thoughts clearly (a great quality for a fucking writer, I know), so my apologies 🙇🏼‍♂️

Anonymous asked:

I thought you’d dig the idea of a teacher taking advantage of Edmund 😏 Keeping him after class for reasons

Oh I did! That’d make such a good doujinshi/side-story... Perfect for creepy (or sexy) mobs hehe. Or an AU where one of his boys is actually a teacher, they’d abuse the hell out of this power.

Anonymous asked:

Do the boys have something like YouTube in their world? If so, what sort of vids do they watch? ASMR, mukbangs, gaming, etc. Also, do any of them have social media? What do they post?

They should! I just want to keep the story mostly tech-free, so they have a mixture of having nowadays tech-level while at the same time, despite some social media looking exactly the way it does now, its popularity is actually closer to early 00s?.. Everyone’s not glued to screens as much and there isn’t such a strong dependency on it. Phones are primarily used for calling, and even if students check the news and stuff, it doesn’t grab their attention for long. But!

I think out of all of them only Niall and Liam would watch YouTube-like videos. Niall likes long analyses about anything, really, and everything educational also works for him. He doesn’t really have time for entertainment, and when he does, he prefers to do it irl lol But mostly he’s just too busy... Same goes for Liam, but he likes very specific videos. Those videos with long lectures that actually educate you because they’re recorded by a professor, those ones. But he can also watch other stuff when he wants to relax: cooking videos are his go-to, he watches literally anything, even some cursed cuisine. He got a lot of recipes from them, actually! He used to do it more often at home. He also likes fashion videos, but watches those mostly out of obligation. Neither of them is fun... There’re so many fun formats they’re just not aware of! But I have a feeling Liam would hate mukbangs.

Edmund and Ned are boomers who barely use anything lol They miss so much fun! Ned might watch a video if something came up and he doesn’t know what to do (like with dating), but he needs a quick answer, and Edmund might actually watch travel blogs from time to time until it becomes too unbearable to him because he can’t experience the same thing.

As for social media... Niall definitely has several accounts, but he would choose either those that are popular or those that don’t require him to spend much time making content and staying there. He doesn’t mind updating it once in a while and he needs to make sure his photos and other things are perfect. Ned definitely has an account... because Niall forced him to create one. He never used it. Edmund doesn’t have a single page on any social media except the ones that force you to have one and he might need them, but those are the epitome of burner accs even if Edmund doesn’t even know what it is. Liam does have pages on every social media, but... it’s all locked up and private. He never shares it with anyone even if he posts there.

Anonymous asked:

So…does Edmund like having his hair pulled? Asking for scientific reasons…

He does! ^^ Edmund likes a lot of strange things, I wouldn’t be able to treat him the way I do if he didn’t enjoy it.

IWTV S02E05 notes that I wrote down as I was watching

The chemistry between Louis and Armand in the present day is still so so so weird, they’re so clearly play acting being a happy couple who are in sync and playfully tease each other but it feels SO scripted/rehearsed

But I feel like Louis at least IS genuinely invested in believing this “Armand love of my life” narrative

And Armand is obviously hiding something but also scheming with Louis

So how much of this is planned between the two of them, how much is genuine and how much of it is each of them acting separately from each other?

I know this story is told from Louis’ point of view and therefore might be biased, but there sure doesn’t seem to be any question about whether Daniel likes men in this version of events

He literally looks Louis up and down? Hello??

And I wouldn’t exactly describe present-Daniel’s reaction to finding out they DIDN’T sleep together as “relieved”

This is really the season where Eric Bogosian gets to ACT (between this and “she said no,” god)

Louis is doing a great impression of someone drunkenly ranting about an ex they’re not over and he’s not even the one under the influence in this scene (as far as I know)

Okay I do know the spoiler that Armand has been doing some fucky stuff with everyone’s memory. So Louis saying he probably can’t remember what happened because of the drugs is foreshadowing

One of my favorite things about this show is that every argument between Louis and Armand or Louis and Lestat sounds exactly like any normal marital fight except with some vampire words subbed in

“The world’s softest, beige-est pillow” sent me

Armand isn’t boring but that definitely feels like an accurate description of their relationship tbh? They both seem bored and suffocated with it

I’m a simple man (gn), it entertains me to no end when British actors faking American accents have to fake British accents as their American characters (especially toward the end there it doesn’t even sound like Louis is doing Armand’s accent it sounds like he’s doing Jacob Anderson’s accent, which just amuses me a lot)

“I’m good at getting angles, getting people to open up” he is!!! He’s REALLY good at guiding his interview subjects to remember more stuff. Of course, ethically, there are special considerations you’re supposed to take if you’ll be asking your subject to recall memories that may be traumatic to relive, not just launch them right into them. But everything else in this episode is so irreproachably ethically and morally sound that I’m willing to let that slide

This show got so fun when it switched from Daniel trying to coax information out of Louis and Armand to him and Louis working together to figure out what Armand isn’t telling them

Louis found the exact combination of words that were guaranteed to work on Armand to convince him to stop, you can see it in Armand’s face

This Armand calling Louis maitre thing is… some kind of dynamic for sure. Not sure WHAT dynamic, but there definitely IS one

Armand breezing in again in his cool sunglasses after Louis and Daniel have been uncovering all this stuff about him is fucking hilarious. His exes really DID unionize

I’m probably asexual but Assad Zaman is so pretty it confuses and mesmerizes me in equal measure. GOD that man is beautiful. I want to stare at him forever. Respectfully, I want to print out a picture of him and eat it like Dreamstat ate that photograph that Louis took

Lucifer

At first, it was hard to communicate with him due to his coldness

But after a bit, we start talking more by discussing about the brothers

We get along for the most part, except for when I get involved in pranks and mishaps with the brothers

As someone who tends to get good grades, I feel like I would avoid so many lectures from him 😎

Helps discipline the brothers in a more peaceful way

Will try to convince him to do the same

Oldest sibling 🤝

Gives him motivational messages so that he can have a nice day

Moon 🌙 x Moon 🌙

Mammon

Instantly connect due to his fun personality

Cuz he’s Mammon ofc

Actually lets him have Grimm but on the condition that he spends it properly and gives a lil kiss

We hang out a lot for studying, shopping, eating at a restaurant, etc

Flirts with him and compliments him just to see him blush 🤭

A little surprised that he has a crush on me, but it’s so obvious too

Defends him from his brothers and comforts him with affirmations afterwards 🙏

Loves to see his hands and feel them (I love his jewelry covered hands so much)

Collects every magazine with a photo of him

Simps as much as he simps (simp synchronization)

I see his sin as a part of him and not ALL of him

He has much more to offer and I wanna remind him that 😔

Plus I have anger issues too-

Yk I always wanted to read books but I didn’t know which ones to read

I would probably ask Satan to recommend some as a way to get closer to him 🤭

Helps him find cats and gets them close enough to pet them

They might start a lil book club where they discuss the same book they’re reading or decide which one is better

Cleans his hoard of books from time to time and leaves a lil map to help him find em easily

Hopeless romantics 🤝

Cat cafe dates :)

We write each other poems >:)

-- Terafest ‘23: Booth Info

During the festival, Grusha will be hosting an Adoption Booth. The pokemon are all your average everyday pokemon outside one thing: they’re exposed to Fae or Fairfolk energy. The best way to describe Fae-touched is the following, an excerpt from my Fae Lore post;

If you’re exposed to one of the Pureblood Fae, or the Fae Circle, you’re likely to become Fae-Touched. Those that are truly fae-touched are fairy-type pokemon or those that appear to be fairy-type pokemon. Any pokemon can get this treatment but its harder for steel-types and poison-types and easier for ghost, psychic, and dark-types, or pokemon that are recorded to be close to the line between worlds. Fae-touched last depending on how long they live in the Fae Circle.

One that eventually becomes a full Fae-Touched will, for example, if a Torterra were to become a Fae-Touched, keep either its Grass or Ground typing but gain a permanent Fairy-typing. They would begin to think more like the fae and in doing this, its a mentality of ‘you do right by me, i do right by you’… and if you do wrong by them… well, the stories are there for cautionary reasons.

The rest can be read here.

( DISCLAIMER: Grusha  is all but ‘human’ in this festival and is just here to vibe and his pokemon are normal as well outside his variant Mightyena, well, which is a variant. Grusha is also not a Fae in canon, he is something else entirely but close enough for those curious. The pokemon themselves are the only thing abnormal. Also, The pokemon themselves will be listed in a secondary post at a later date closer to the festival due to writer not feeling well when writing this post. This is merely an information post. )

Grusha knows that they are Fae-Touched but sees nothing wrong with adopting them out. He’s curious to see what will happen, actually. When the time comes, RNG stuff will be rolled to determine what kind of pokemon are available and how many since this all ties into Grandcrest Ranch making sure the last of the pokemon that are owned and couldn’t be rehomed beforehand get good homes. These pokemon are mostly trained, evolved, and battle-ready outside a few exceptions and likely will come with suggested nicknames but are not necessary.

You’ll find Grusha sitting at the booth when he’s not perusing himself with his variant Mightyena partner, Togo, at his side as well as his Weavile, Lolair, on standby to help out. You are welcome to mention these two pokemon in the post. Togo has a quiet personality unless provoked and Lolair is a lot more timid then most Weavile, but he’s friendly to those that are friendly to him. Grusha will likely be bored in most posts but will perk up if its a Paldean Co-Worker that he knows. He is partial to Rika and Ryme for personal reasons, and if a Geeta shows up, note there will be some alarm from his pokemon first and some fear from him. Feel free to play around with these but within reason !!

Now what happens ICly when you get one of these pokemon? Well, they act like fae depending on the percentage bar that comes with the pokemon itself. Over time depending on the dice roll, they will become normal pokemon but the higher it goes, the more feral they become. It will be a give and take relationship regardless of how skilled the trainer is. A video showing what possibly could happen as well as an explanation of ‘neighbors’ or ‘fairfolk’ will be linked from The Ancient Magus Bride which my blog is primarily based on.

How does this play into roleplay? The Fae Gauge. 

0-20% - Likely to not act like a fae and simply just have simply be 'quirky' as one would call it. They'll fade out of things fast and be normal soon enough. No need to roll.

21-50% - Likely to cause issues for their trainer depending on how much. They're starting to get into a fae nature and might turn feral depending on how severe the situation. Might take a couple of months to be 'normal'. Up to you on rolling for gauge to go down.

51-79% - Same as above but it happens much more frequently. Dice roll one in ten recommended in situations. One in five is a no to feral reaction, five to ten is a yes. Will take at least a year or two to be normal. Roll for gauge to go down.

80-99% - Will act almost exactly like a fae and the video should be viewed and taken into account. Will take closer to five years to be normal. Roll for gauge to go down.

100% - A pokemon that's appears normal but is absolutely a Fae. Will be labeled for your knowledge as a writer on typing that's being substituted. Physical changes may be noticed. A bond must be built for them to fully listen and care must be taken. Will never be 'normal'.

Lastly, i’m not expecting many, but I do hope you guys enjoy these pokemon and find something for them. Thanks for the read! Also I HIGHLY RECOMMEND clicking the video if you are remotely interested in this blog, this booth, and the concept. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjqOJs985UU&ab_channel=CrunchyrollCollection

A last minute addition from the Lady of Grandcrest Ranch (Morgan, OC, not attending but owns the ranch responsible for these pokemon... technically); ‘After the adoption, the pokemon is firmly in the new trainer’s care. If something happens, Grusha nor anyone at Grandcrest Ranch are liable for what happens if you do piss off the fae. This video above shows three examples of treating the fae-touched pokemon with respect, with them showing an affinity for the person, or if you treat them wrong. You have been warned.’

Chucked all my thoughts while watching le rouge et le noir for the first time here so have them without show context

Also while missing a good chunk of the show cause I accidentally went on another page without saving the draft schwoopsie

so ding dong is bonheur de malheur with more inexplicable doorbell noises

this man is a MENACE

ohhhh the way the lighting only illuminates mme de rênal half the time during this time is excellent

and then she's an immobile doll for him to position and place bouquets in her hand?? wonderful

the way julien sounds so edgy every single time he talks. king relax

this use of the turntable is quite good but is this man literally climbing a mountain right now

NAPOLEON????

oh putting julien on the top section for the musicians as the first (i think?) actor to do so as he sings about wanting to ascend in his life position... sublime

a) why is his napoleon locket HUGE. couldn't you find a smaller one b) "like you, I'll be the eagle... and she'll be my prey" girl. as far as i can tell at this point in the show you do genuinely like her. why are you describing her like that

NOOO NOT THE MAID

also it's been so long only watching zuka shows that seeing people actually kiss instead of stage kiss is genuinely shocking

"julien... whose portrait are you hiding in your locket?" "i can't tell you... but know it's a man" omg bisexual king 🤩🤩😍😍

I really can't tell if it's a choice here or if he's just really off-time

his gritty voice is fine for solos but i do wish it wasn't present in the love song duet :/ UNLESS it's a hint that he doesn't really love her in which case phenomenal

(Okay now at DLNJVR and it appears he did actually love her and it wasn’t a clever galaxy brain moment. Shame)

glad to see the good old "your character Does Not sing this song but here sing it for the cast recording" trick of french musicals again

ahh the fancy home crumbling once he learns of the affair >>

HE'S GONNA FUCKING KILL HER????????

Okay okay I thought we were going for an INTENSE genre shift right there

Gotta admit I’m not the hugest fan of any of the men’s voices

The house rebuilding itself as he composes himself >>

No Louise :((((( let me tell you if I were her husband I would treat her right

He is SO edgy. Salieri Mozartl’operarock better watch out

DLNJVR actually goes ways harder live than I would’ve thought

His voice works really well for it and her section is very nice

“Admit it, father, you only laugh when you’re with your moody little priest of a secretary. And he’s not even funny.” You’re so real for that queen

Also that line is a very nice way of establishing the timeline

Anyway I love all the women characters this musical should be about them only

Ohh when everyone is still except for them on the turntable >>> I love staging

I forget their names but this couple is also acceptable they’re so fun (it was the Valenods)

Why?? Does she flip pages with both hands???

“Do they surround me because they see me as their prey?” You’re one to talk sir.

Also I thought Sans elles was a breakup song for sure but this does make sense

Misogyny 🤩

The song does translate quite well to stage though I am enjoying it

Wait why is he going to meet her anyway. You just sang about how much better off you were without her

This is such a silly scene I’m a fan

IL AURAIT SUFFIT YEAHHH

LOUISE DD:

LOUISE SINGING THE OUR LOVE WON’T BE AFFECTED BY THE SPACE BETWEEN US LINE AUGHHH

That probably could’ve used more buildup to be effective but I love il aurait suffit too much to care it’s probably my favourite le rouge et le noir song

The way I wrote so much and then it got deleted because it didn’t save. Sigh

I don’t care enough to retype alas

The ones I remember clearly enough will be turned into separate posts

The main gist of it was that I liked Geronimo Mathilde and Louise and not much else

Recontinuing

Mathilde’s dad looks so familiar I must have seen him in something else

Why does Côme always look so sullen

Tbf I assume a lot of it is not being able to see his facial features that well due to the low video quality but like

Girl the way they skipped Geronimo in the cast countdown??

NOÉMIE GARCIA??? I DIDN’T KNOW SHE WAS IN THIS

Aw I like how they’re having people applaud the techies and band as well as the actors :)))

Reprises of the biggest songs at the end of French musicals :)))

Lesbians real

I joke but if Mathilde and Louise had just loved each other and forgotten julien everything would’ve worked out Fine. It definitely would not have but I can pretend

All in all it did slightly disappoint my expectations but overall it was a good time

The music slapped, as expected

And the set design & staging was really neat, and far surpassed my expectations after i saw it was mainly screens

Diary of a Junebug

Taking it slow by making deliveries and exploring the countryside

These past few days I’ve gotten a glimpse of Connie and Pai’s lives when they’re not out having a grand adventure. Basically, in order to travel about freely, as well as make necessary connections, they have to be out and about. And what better way to do that than by running errands and taking up odd jobs?

Like Connie said, it’s a mixed bag, so it’s not really something they’d recommend to a lot of people since it’s so unpredictable. Part of the reason why they keep at is because they got lucky and wouldn’t be where they are today if things didn’t work out the way they did. So it basically comes down to luck, which isn’t always that reliable.

While a lot of good has come out of it, there’s also a lot of meh and tedious stuff in between. Yeah, I get what they mean. You have to be able to pull through and move forward, otherwise it just wouldn’t be worth it. That’s why Connie wanted to make absolutely sure that Pai knew what exactly she was getting into before deciding to tag along with them. Pai, I guess, is who most consider a somewhat well-seasoned adventurer - to be honest, she doesn’t always seem like it but people like Jamie have said so and I trust their judgement - has some experience worth taking note of, but nothing compared to someone like Connie.

Raiden and Qingmei used to live a similar lifestyle, mostly because that was their best option to find what they needed. They all have described the process as a whole like looking for a needle in the ocean. It’s a big gamble but sooner or later you’d fish something out. Whether it’s useful or not, at least you found something, meaning that your search isn’t futile. In other words, you not only have to be persistent, but you also have to know where to look, and how to filter out all the unnecessary details. It’s far from smooth sailing, but if that’s your only option and you’re willing to put in the effort, then you will get something out of it.

That being said, Raiden says it’s not very sustainable for the long term. Like, a couple of years at best. Any more than that you might as well redirect your energy somewhere else or just slow down. She was lucky that her journey, to put in simpler terms, lasted for maybe a little over a year, which is kinda wild when you think about it as a shitton of stuff happened.

Again, it sounds very demanding, not something I think I’d be capable of doing. And of course, Raiden and Qingmei decided to slow down once they found what they needed. They still travel a lot but on a much smaller scale and less ulterior motives. In other words, they’ve been learning how to just live life without constantly worrying about their futures.

Sure, Raiden says she misses the excitement sometimes, especially when life gets slow and blah, but at the same time she’s happy to have those periods, even if they are tedious. I’d say she’s on a another journey right now, more of an inner, self-discovery type. She and all the others who she met along the way have gone through a lot, so, obviously, they’ve changed a lot.

Raiden certainly didn’t expect to make it out alive. She knew her brother’s days were number when shit really started going down. Qingmei, maybe might have had a chance of making it out alive, Dainn, not so much. But somehow they beat the odds - well, except for Raiden’s brother - and they all have to learn to live with it, which I think will always be an ongoing process.

At least the three of them decided to stick together and I think that’s been helping them process what had happened. It’s good that they have each other and chose to be together, as well as acknowledge what happened and use that to move forward. None of them had it easy, but considering the circumstances, this was probably the most optimal outcome for them.

That said, I hope that Connie’s journey will not be for naught. They’ve already come so far and despite the ups and downs, they still persist. I admire them for that and I hope that things will be okay. Whether they make it out alive or not, I hope at least that they will be able to find some peace of mind over things that they needed answers to. I get that not everything will work out, and even if things are going fine right now, it can still suddenly go to shit without warning.

As much as I want Connie and Pai to make it out alive, kicking and screaming, like Raiden, I also accept that sometimes there is no happy ending or a neatly tied up resolution. No matter what, there will always be some sort of mess, scars that’ll never properly heal no matter what.

I hope it doesn’t sound pessimistic. Connie has always been upfront, flat out saying that they might not survive the week and such. I’d say they’re being realistic, like, it’s not really a nice thing to consider, but it’s their reality. I can’t imagine living with such a weight on my shoulders.

Right now, it’s one of those slow periods for Connie and Pai. Connie says those too can be a mixed bag as sometimes it’s need and other times it’s frustrating. Fortunately, this one’s good timing as they’ll be busy again soon.

There’s gonna be a big event hosted by Dharma where Connie and Pai will be commentators, so that’s gonna be exciting. In fact, Connie’s invited the camp to come up to the city to check out the festivities as Nahla’s trying to promote interest to those outside of the academia scene. The main thing is a big competition and there’ll be a lot of fun stalls and activities to check out. Although the main reason is to recruit more students, they’re trying to be more inclusive as, obviously, not everyone’s interested in pursuing academics. In other words, because of the changing academia scene since management has changes, they’re trying to tear apart the rift that the old Dharma was responsible for.

I think that’s a good cause and I’m glad that Connie, Nahla, Sadiki, and the other’s efforts have led to much needed change in Adrikha. It takes guts not only to challenge a system that does more harm than good, but it’s even harder to keep to your word and actively push for those changes. At least for now things are finally settling down, plus it’s bring break, so everyone’s getting their much needed rest.

That’s why Connie and Pai are out here in the countryside of Adrikha. Connie heard that the mailroom’s in need of help because a lot of the people over there are on vacation. It also happens to be in the town where Layla, a student from Dharma, resides, and Connie wants to check in on her as she’s had a very stressful semester and is long overdue for a family visit.

Sophea and Michi also happen to be in the area too, along with Sumi, a courier from Sango who they recently helped get out of a tight jam. Sumi’s story is kinda wild actually. Like, what’s wrong with some people? At least she came out of the whole thing unscathed with her reputation intact. Apparently, Mio wanted to introduce Sumi to Connie for a while but stuff happened and so Sumi was forced to go into hiding for a while.

So Sumi, like Mio and Mei, is a yokai. Unlike most other yokai though, Sumi doesn’t possess any unusual powers, at least, as far as she knows. She is known to be very fast and very good with direction, so she uses those skills to be a courier. And according to Sophea and Michi, she’s a damn good one. Even though she’s mostly local, Sumi has also done international if it’s an emergency or something super urgent.

In fact, she has helped Connie a couple times when they were in tight situation but Connie never got the chance to properly thank her as she ‘s quick and most people don’t usually see her. She’s been at it for about 200 years, so it’s safe to say she’s pretty vital to Sango’s postal service.

But then troubles began when shit went down in Sango and everything was in shambles. Sumi was willing to put herself in danger in order to keep communications open, which was commendable of her. She actually got compensated for all the trouble she had to go through, and maybe that was what got her in trouble with a certain someone later on.

That certain someone - some guy who was ousted following the political scandals that were uncovered, no one could be bothered to remember who - held a grudge against many people, including Sumi for reasons she’s not sure of. Basically, some fucked up guy who decided to take his anger out on Sumi, out of all people, for reasons we’ll probably never understand.

It started when the head of the postal service died in a freak accident, possibly murder, though that’s very circumstantial. That guy happened to be a distant relative, so he took over as there was no next of kin, despite protests from the others.

Sumi described him as relentless and scary. He stalked her and tried to get people to turn against her, spreading rumors about her and harassing those who disagreed. Even Mio was powerless against him, which was not good as she’s pretty much one of the most powerful people in Sango. Eventually it got to the point where Sumi was so concerned about her own safety that she stopped leaving home. Still, she made her deliveries when she was the only one capable of the job, which made the guy even angrier at her.

And that’s not it. Apparently, he threatened to jump off a cliff if Sumi didn’t do so first. He just wanted her out of the picture, period. Of course, Sumi refused, and she did try standing up to him, except she said it was like talking to a brick wall that only just wanted to crush you. That sounds fucking terrible.

Once he realized that Sumi wasn’t going down so easily, he decided to frame her for murder. So he took a bunch of people hostage with a bunch of bombs and proceeded to blow them and himself up. Apparently, he didn’t intend to go down with them, but either way, his plan worked, even more so with him dead. He did it in such a way that made it seem like Sumi was at her wit’s end and felt she had no choice but to resort to murder. By then, her mental state was already in shambles, so that made things worse.

That’s where Michi and Sophea came in. Michi was well aware of who that guy was, and also said that he should’ve been kicked out a long time ago. He knew that he wasn’t able to take on this case alone and consulted Sophea. It was a tough case, but they were more concerned about Sumi and how she was gonna come out.

In the end, Sumi was found innocent and Michi made sure that Sumi got the help she needed after the ordeal she went through. He’s also working with Hanako and Akira to make sure something like this doesn’t happen again.

As for Sumi, she’s still on leave, but she’s looking forward to be back. She’s worried that she’ll be rusty, which is why she’s helping out at the post office too. She says that working in an unfamiliar environment adds an extra challenge that’ll hopefully help her get back into the grind when she returns to Sango. So far, being out here has been good for her. She says she’s still a bit shaken up by what had happened but she can’t let that stop her from living her life.

Along with checking in on Sumi, Sophea and Michi had other reasons to stop by. Connie met someone who was in need of legal help - they’re from Adrikha but the relative who needs help is from Bonsai, where Sophea’s from. Basically, a custody issue where the kid’s safety is coming into question. Sophea met with them and she’s sure that she can help them out, so that’s good.

Michi mainly came to see Sumi, Connie, and Pai. While hanging out in the city he didn’t except to run into Aliya. She was the merchant he met a few years ago back when he was living in his hometown. He didn’t know her too well but had heard that she’s kinda a big deal in Adrikha, which was why Connie sought her out for intel when they first came to the city. Aliya was working with Harumi’s father on some business deal that ended up falling through.

To his surprise, Aliya remembered him. Of course, she tried to sell him a bunch of stuff, and he did happen to find something he was looking for, so that worked out well. They did talk a bit about what happened when Harumi died and how insensitive her family was. I remember Michi telling me about it and how that prompted him to leave home.

Aliya didn’t know Harumi but she was put off by how her family treated her death like it was some joke. Basically it’s one of those things where it’s like oh, that sounds terrible, and then you hear more about it and it’s like wow, that’s really fucked up.

Apparently, Aliya and Harumi’s father were in a meeting when he was told that his daughter had died. She, like most people, would assume that they end the meeting so he could sort out his affairs and such. But no, instead, not only he insisted on continuing the meeting, he also took Aliya to Harumi’s room so he could go through her stuff and see what’s worth selling. He, according to Aliya, was pretty much like, “Oh, good that’s one less mouth to feed. We never really liked her anyway.”, which is yikes. Michi said that her observations were pretty much spot on, as much as he hates to admit it.

Like he said before, it seemed like Michi was the only one who gave a fuck about Harumi’s death. Even if he wasn’t her best friend, he still would’ve felt something for her as she died in what could’ve been a preventable accident. But no, instead they used her death to make fun of her, because clearly only a stupid idiot would lose control of their car on a poorly lit, narrow, and winding road on a rainy day. Aliya probably said no more than a couple sentences to her and yet she felt that Harumi deserved respect and dignity. She’s had her share of bad clients and sketchy deals but Harumi’s father straight up made her uncomfortable for a lot of reasons.

Being at the office has been chill and delivering packages is a good way to explore the area. Sumi really is super fast and efficient, it’s amazing watching her go! It’s hard to believe that she just arrived a couple days ago and has already memorized the entire area. Sometimes it gets busy but most of the time it’s a bit slow, which we don’t mind too much.

In the meantime, we take the time to explore the countryside and just take it slow. Layla’s from here so she’s the one showing us around the village. She didn’t plan on spending her break at home and probably would’ve stayed cooped up in her dorm if Connie hadn’t insisted. Being a student can be rough, and I imagine that it’s a lot tougher in a university like Dharma. Connie notes that she’s been a lot more relaxed now that she doesn’t have a lot on her mind.

The countryside of Adrikha is peaceful and serene. It’s the opposite of the hustle and bustle of the city according to Pai. Layla said it took her a long time to get used to living in the city as she barely left the village before that. Even though she’s been in the city for almost two years, she still kinda feels out of place. Her semester had a bit of a rough start but she somehow persevered and things started to change for the better when she pushed herself to become more social.

Connie and Pai first met her at an event in the city that they participated in. Layla wanted to participate but she didn’t have a lot of confidence so Connie decided to give her some support. In the end, Layla got second place, which then got her some attention from her peers. That, she speculates, must be the part of the reason why they ended up nominating her to represent their department for that upcoming event Connie mentioned.

Yeah, I feel for her. It sucks when you don’t have the greatest confidence and people are putting a lot of expectations on you. Layla seems like she’s smart and capable, but it’s hard for her to see that right now because she’s so focused on putting all her energy into making it through the day. Connie seems to have taken her under their wing.

Since it’s getting hot, we’ve been hanging out by the river to keep cool. Layla took us to her favorite swimming spot under a giant honey peach tree that’s a lifesaver when the heat and humidity gets too much to handle.

Pai said the countryside is kinda like an in between of the forest in the east and the sands in the west. Most people live in the forest area while the desert is more scattered out. Connie’s pretty much familiar with the forest by now but the desert’s another story. They said once you leave the villages, pretty much anything can go wrong no matter how well prepared you are.

Although Connie and Pai have special clearance to travel the desert in most places that are usually restricted to researchers, it’s not like you can walk in and set up camp. The expeditions they had over there went surprisingly well, so that’s something. Connie would’ve continued on but now that it’s getting warmer, the desert’s probably the last place you should be hanging around in. That’s another reason why things are kinda slow right now.

It’s nice being surrounded by so much green. Adrikha really is verdant, no exaggeration there. After running around delivering packages, there’s nothing more relaxing than swimming in the river, eating grilled honey peaches, and learning about the unusual flora unique to this area.

Favourite comm for each VBS character go! Go! Go!

!!!

Thank you for the ask!!! :3 I LOVE yapping on about my opinions 💥💥

Akito- CRaZY, definitely CRaZY. They all have vocal moments in this song that I really like, I love their outfits for it (I have Akito’s in the game 💪💪)

And it was one of the songs along with SHANTI that inspired me to actually go listen to the rest of VBS’s songs (I used to only listen to RAD DOGS)

I LOVE the “la li la li lala la lida” it’s so silly, I’ve actually started learning the lyrics to this song.

Also for the LONGEST time I thought Akito was singing ALL of the chorus I think it fried my brain when I learned Toya also sang their (they sound SCARILY similar in that song 💔, but Toya also sounds badass I love him for that)

I like An’s long deep note, idk how to describe it she does one in Brain revolution girl too except longer

TRASH CRASH TOSS AWAY DON’T YOU THINK DON’T YOU THINK 💥💥

Also this song rotted my brain, every time I hear someone say “crazy” I have to hold myself back from saying “Akito Shinonome reference” 💔💔💔

Fuel is also a really good one Ily Akito

Kohane- KONO IKIZAMA DE MAKE SOME NOISE 💪💪🔥🔥🔥

I wasn’t sure about Ultra C at first but it DEFINITELY grew on me it’s so hype YOU GO KOHANE !! 10/10 would dance to it at a party, I loovee An and Kohane’s vocals in this song they’re so peak

I do also like the bit where Toya and Akito go really deep with Miku towards the end that’s pretty funky too /pos

AND AKITO’S VOCALS WAHHH YES KING I WILL GO ALL OUT ❗️❗️

Also “raise the bro” lmao (WHAT the hell does this mean girl…I mean slay but huh,,/silly)

The only thing bad about this song is Akito’s ugly ass haircut /Lh

She has a couple of good ones though a lot of A tier songs

Toya- Ooh idk whether to choose RAD DOGS or Hollow I love them bothhh

Cause RAD DOGS is very catchy and also holds a special place in my heart as my first vbs song but also TOBENAI TORI NO SAIREN 💪💪 EAGLE SCREECH 🦅🦅

The intro instrumental of RAD DOGS sounds extremely choreographical like I would NOT be a good choreographer and I don’t wanna be but that bit makes me wanna make up dance moves for it

Also I REALLY like the rap bit in rad dogs Akitoya slayed that

I LOVE THE BIT IN HOLLOW WHERE THEY REFERENCE EACH OTHER’S NAMES

It always confused me though cause I thought Hollow was just another vocaloid song that wasn’t written specifically for Vbs, So either I’m wrong or INSANELY extreme coincidence

Also Toya’s alternate vocals are literally so good he sounds so silly ❤️❤️ like why does his “break it down!” Sound so whimsical it sounds like something Toya from his fish card would sing, he sounds like he’s frolicking in a field of flowers and sheep (haha one sheep reference) and leaping in joy as he says it

ALSO HIM IMITATING HIS TEAMMATES WAHHH

I forgot who but i once saw someone point out that there’s a bit at the end where Toya sings alone and there’s like piano in the background and its quiet and then when Akito joins in the piano goes away and it sounds more vbs esque I LOVE THEM CAN YOU TELL /silly

An- Rekka probably? I just think it’s a neat song mostly, i really like the instrumentals!! And some of the vocal bits are really cool (like that one bit where Akito and Toya sing while making their voices all weird (idk how to describe it))

I don’t really have much to a say about it, my only thoughts are that it sounds nice

I do also like Retainer Supplanting His Lord (hilarious title translation) escpecially the chorus

ATASHI KIRAI KIRAI KIRAI IYADA !!!
