#1000000 years later i finally get to sit with this

[risingsouls]

🦎 You've probably already talked about an AU like this, but with the concept that the Cold family never enslaved the saiyans and planet vegeta was never destroyed, what kind of king do you think Vegeta would've become?

🦎 For My (work) Thoughts || Always Accepting!

[Actually. I don't think I've gotten much chance to talk about anything like this and I've been sitting on this for so long (in large part because I save these for work and this was my first week back after a week off) and I'm very excited to ramble incoherently about some ideas!

With how entrenched the Cold Empire became with the Saiyans to the point we don't really have a solid idea of how the Empire influenced Saiyan life and culture, this is almost difficult to answer. I have my own ideas obviously, BUT. Really digging into what would be different in general for Saiyans and therefore their rulers is tricky but fascinating.

My first thought is that Vegeta would be an ambitious king. Even without the Cold Empire, I think he would be keen on expanding the Saiyans' influence in the universe really for no other reason than the power of it because I don't think he'd care much about wealth and status (in the way its often linked to wealth and whatnot) except in ways a king HAS to as much as he would care about the universe knowing that the Saiyans are a force to be reckoned with. I've talked before somewhere about the Saiyans having the idea that the king remains planetside to rule while the prince conquers, and I think this would remain true and spark that desire to cement the Saiyans' might in the minds of all in the universe. It would definitely be more difficult without the technology the Cold Empire gives them canonically, but considering, at least in my understanding of things before Super came and changed/added their own spin, they did have the tech from the conquered Tuffles that allowed them to begin going to other planets to fight stronger people/conquering them before King Cold, there was definitely already something growing in that realm foe the Saiyans without Cold influence/aid.

Vegeta would also likely break the tradition of the king only remaining planetside btw. He's entirely too controlling and restless to leave EVERYTHING to others. Plus he's a Saiyan too, and he definitely reveled in his freedom to help with conquering planets and fighting way too much to just retire that part of his life entirely. His lust for battle is too strong for me to comfortably say he would shelf it completely just because "that's how things have always been." Plus he's too proud and haughty to not want to make a bigger better name for himself than every Saiyan ruler before him.

As for like what he would be like as a king in general, that's so tough to answer because we know for a fact that Frieza had a TON of influence on him since he was a child, and since we know very little about his life before that or even his parents and upbringing, its difficult to make any like super confident assumptions. But here are a few things I've considered and have been sort of able to parse out that might be like genuine Vegeta without Frieza influence.

I think it goes without saying that Vegeta wouldn't be a kind, benevolent king by any stretch. He would be firm and incredibly goal oriented with very little tolerance for shenanigans. However, I don't think he would be a cruel king, at least not to the Saiyans in the sense he wouldn't needlessly kill or torment people just because or for some minor infraction. The reason i say this with certainty is that, until shit started unraveling for him, he kept Nappa and Raditz alive despite them being far weaker than him. This showed that even though he did think of them as weaker and I'm sure they crossed him PLENTY, Vegeta does recognize that needlessly killing other Saiyans wouldn't be beneficial to ruling his people or an empire. So basically he's definitely going to be as callous, haughty, and blunt as you would expect, but I don't think we would see any Frieza-esque or unnecessary cruelty from him AT LEAST toward other Saiyans unless it was warranted.

That said, I've also thought about like....would Vegeta change anything, namely things like the rigid caste system in any way or try to ease tensions between the Saiyans toward the royal family stoked by his father and probably at least his father's father. I think for the latter, considering his ambitions, I think he would be forced to try and regain the trust of as many Saiyans as possible even if he didn't really WANT to. And, because I think a lot of the unrest and friction came from the caste system, he would likely have to face making changes to it at the very least. Again, I don't think this would be a willful or something like clearly on his agenda, but once he sees how the needless drama it causes gets in the way of what HE wants, I think he would be more open to adjusting it in SOME ways like at least making it more fluid/easier to climb through the ranks as soldiers grow stronger and offerent better opportunities to those who do start at the bottom of the food chain. Abolishing it would likely be out of the question because then it COULD jeopardize his claim to power if they somehow managed a movement to change the government's structure outright, but he would likely be confident in his own power to adjust some things to make it better at least because he wouldn't see anyone ever challenging his power (which makes me wonder if that would probably be his undoing someday as it is in canon, BUT).

Anyway. I know most of that is really vague but I hope it makes some sense? I def didn't touch on everything I could have, like coming to mind as I type this part is considering how things would be different in regards to how, at least imo, the whole sending weak Saiyans off to conquer weak planets as babies was a Cold Empire influence things and what that could mean for Vegeta if anything, but yeh! It also got really long but that was really fun to think about kwhfbejfn.]

Maroon x Blue Sunday Lovin'

Side Note: This was penned right after the game and debrief with second dad. So yes, late post, yet again. Was talking to my second dad after getting home as he can still outrun millennials on a full court basketball game. LOL. He even joked that during their time, height is not an advantage. Also, those hey days were spent in no less than Katipunan. He pushed the envelope further saying that he used to watch games live but traffic is just so bad; and he's glad that he didn't get a cardiac arrest live via satellite, too. There goes today's game debriefing. Later, I slid a note about how maroon mixes so well with blue. Ang ganda. Parang kumikinang siya sa mata ko.

Meanwhile, a friend who is a legit UAAP fan slid a DM asking since when I became a fan. This is a really funny story, sobrang babaw to be precise. Back in college I sighed over the thought of going to a game to represent your school in UAAP basketball. It's like a euphoric pill I can not swallow because I am but an outsider. One of the reasons why I commute from Las Pinas to Diliman is because I wanted to watch a game live and to cheer for my school. HAHAHAHAHHA. Never mind that I'm but a graduate school student with 36 units down and a thesis that's left to rot. Never mind that I still feel like an outsider. There's something about this little dream turned reality that makes me really giddy.

Going back to second dad... I found an opening to say that blue looks more and more tempting. Of course, he whacked back saying that I already have blue in my blood, only from Leon Guinto. UGH. And that, my LS dream will just turn my heart black. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. He reminded me that he gave it a try himself and that I just need to focus on my digital game. LOL. Eto na naman po kami ng second dad ko. Nagde-debate na naman na akala mo totoong anak niya ako. JUSQ. I knew what he means naman. But, I didn't back down saying that since I'm dabbling with AI, I'm wondering if using it in LS will make things better and faster.

One of the things I shared to him was that I'd most likely fail the exam. He said: Panigurado papasa ka. I was taken aback since I feel like I'm so clunky and can be labelled as sakto lang in all things I do. Ang bitbit ko lang is my intention, thus being intentional. (Redundancy is the key to me. CHZ.)

So, what's my take on today's game?

Hindi ako pikon. Start pa lang, I said sana matawid ng UP pero I have a hunch this would either be a close and tough fight OR we'll go home without the bacon.

Also, ang ganda ng galaw ng Katips. Pero, and weird lang din ng mga tawag. Unli freethrow Sunday po tayo, ladies and chemenemen. In fairness, may certain certainty bawat bitaw ng Blue Eagles. 'Yung tipong humihinga muna, sisipat, saka babato. Dagdagan mo pa ng dasal na may Jesuit vibe 'yan. I even saw a few female lolas na nag-antanda bago mag-game. HAHAHAHA. Heswita pong tunay. Tabi na agad Maroons. LOL.

UP naman today parang more of instincts and tactics. LOLOLLOLLOLLOLL. Sorry but true. This is only the second live game I watched. The first is the UP-Ateneo final game a few years back. I don't follow UAAP in general unlike my college days. Wala lang. Gusto ko lang talaga salpukan ng maroon and blue. Ganda. Visual appeal: 1000000. The stark contrast is such a vibe. The cool blues and the heated maroons.

Lemme add that the school hymns and cheers actually show that legit stark contrast. 'Yung Maroons, very high horse na emotionally packed. Medyo bordering na ng you can't sit with us. Ganun din naman Blue Eagles kaso mas subtle and mas brainy and poetic. LOL. Gets ba? Same alley but different store fronts and merchs. EMS. Me to myself: UP pa U-U-U pa kayo, U-WI tuloy tayo neto. Hahahaha. Also me: Buti na lang nanalo Katips para choosing the school won't need a spoonful of sugar that night. Also me ulit: Win or lose, it's maroon I CHZ. Tabi.

I won't go down the commentary route because that's not my cup of tea. My voice is raspy because it's just so nice to let loose after so much work and personal stuff that's happening. I just need a distraction. Watching games live is an experience on its own. Parang may pasavogue and of course, seeing the asses of players who perform is cute; walang pagnanasa. Saka, true pa rin, napapansin ko lang players kapag may silbi sila sa game like my super crush LA Tenorio. Mula noon, hanggang ngayon. Masipag. Maangas. Grounded. Magaling mag-English and Tagalog. Simple pero bumabaon. Ganern. 'Di ko sure if perky ba ass niya kasi ilong niya nakikita kong nauuna e. LOL.

BTW, I saw the shushing up close. In fairness to the Atenistas, unbothered. ALAVEETTTT. 'Yan ang isang strength nila. Tahimik lang pero 'pag may magandang play, they babble. CHZ. And it's so fun to be near the side of Ateneo, too. Nag-sorry pa 'yung girl sa unahan ko nung natalo. I replied naman that deserving sa win and that it's just a game. She smiled back. Hihihihihihihi.

I wanna see UP and Ateneo in the finals!!!

For the Guardian OC ask: 29, 47, 48, 49

I thought that I might answer these questions a bit different then usually, with answers being from Cogito directly. Just for the funnies.

Also I thought that I can make "voice claims" (that thing where you pick a VA that you think your OC sounds like) for them so:

Cezary Pazura for Cogito-4 and Jacek Kopczyński for Dun-dun. I don't know enough English speaking VAs to pick.

47. Uh, it's space and I don't want to die so… everything? I mean I'm afraid of dying. And Dun dying. But who isn't.

Also I'm afraid of Vex. I set up a garden where I grew vegetables on Nessus and now they are staring at me and making *sounds*.

I'm kinda afraid that Failsafe will die too. I asked her if she wanted an exo frame and she told me that she wants her crew back and 1000000 glimmer. I need to ask Ana.

I'm also afraid that Traveler is gonna fly away. …Ok, I'm afraid of a lot of things.

Dun-dun: I'm afraid of moths.

Look, he's afraid of moths!

48. Hmm, casseroles? And tomato soup! And ramen. And chocolate cookies! Oh, and jam. And steak tartare. Caviar… Aaaand pierogi, I know a great place in the City where they sell Polish food, and-

Dun-dun: I'm deeply concerned about the amount of food you eat.

Mmmmmm… "więcej ciała do kochania"? (transl. "More body to love", Polish idiom)

49. Nessus. I've been sitting here since the Red War. This is truly a great experience - just me, my ghost and the beach. And murderous robots. And dying AI. And pirates. And frogs. Call that summer vacation!

[hiding because the last answer is long]

29. Ahhh, Red War. Everyone seems to remember where they were when it happened. I would lie if I said I don't but well it's not something I… enjoy remembering. But fine, I'll tell you.

S/2004 S 6. One of Saturn's many moonlets. And you know what? There is limestone on it. How? I think an Ahamkara must have died there… say 540 million years ago. Maybe not on S/2004 S 6 precisely but somewhere there.

The entire thing is like… a sort of dream. Nice and coherent at the beginning but then… Well, uh, I was levitating around 2 meters above the ground, I think. The gravity isn't that big there, I suppose.

I don't remember the conversation I had with Dun-dun when *it* happened. But he said… and maybe I'm just imagining it because he doesn't remember it well either, he said, "I know, I was there when that happened".

This is when I felt really weird - it was kinda like being stabbed in the lungs. The world went dark and the next thing I knew was that I was laying on the ground, gasping for air like I needed it.

I picked Dun off the ground, he was very weak. My left leg… you know, it never was really good but after that it hurt so badly I tripped a couple times on my way to the ship. I think that I left everything, aside from my crutches. Pirates probably have stolen everything already. I never returned there. Don't ask why, I don't know.

The communication channels were dead. I had enough glimmer to fly closer to Earth. It's an actual miracle that I didn't flatten myself on some rock considering that I was the worst pilot in the entire Tower and I had one of Amanda's old Kestrel Class AX0s and I was flying around like a headless chicken. I managed to hide on some asteroid eventually. I'ma tell you something - I've been around since Ikora decided to fry some space dragons and I've seen some *serious* shit but this? Dun could barely keep his shell together and I was running out of glimmer.

Anyway. Finally Zavala sent the signal from Titan and I managed to get there. Everyone lightless and scared to shit. Cayde said some bullshit. Later I met Failsafe because of him. Found Shaw. A lot of good people died but everyone knows that. I managed to get to Ikora too. Her face, terrible sight, I don't think I can explain. Before I managed to ask her anything, someone tripped on my crutches and I lost her in the crowd.

Ah, yes, crutches. Left leg behavior. Amped to 100 because I couldn't fly. I didn't fight in the attack. Don't get me wrong - I know a lot disabled guardians who fought but, like. I fly. That's my deal. Ok, I also didn't want to die. I fucked around Io and then Farm.

There were a lot of things to take care of later - a lot of occasions to redeem myself. Maybe it's better that I lived.

[shipuu]

So i find tratie adorable so this how i think they got together

We are gonna make this realistic not that “fell in love when we were 16 and somehow managed to stay together through everything”. Nothing wrong with that trope. But like i said ~~realistic

Katherine gardner - originally from washington dc. She went to gerogetown uni.

She has always been passionate about the plants and first decided to major in Agricultural Studies, but then she didnt really like it.

So she switched to environmental studies. Not exactly about plants per se. But still related to the environment.

She sees the way humans are destroying the world and genuinely wants to help

Shes got good friends in college, sleeps around a little bit. Has a good relationship with her father.

Extremely hard working. Work ethic 1000000. Graduated with honors. Got a job at an enviromental consultancy firm in new york.

Travis off to college. I believe he went to a college in ny to be close to CHB and connor. Probably a community college seeing as he couldnt afford other unis

Nothing wrong with that. His relationship with his mom is rocky. So she wouldn’t be able to help out.

Majored in business administration. He takes it lightly his first year, seeing as how he isn’t used to the education system because he lived at CHB his whole life.

He genuinely wants to be successful. To have a life for himself and connor. So after first year kicks his butt, he works hard and raised his GPA the following years.

Extremely good at math and numbers. He steal messes around, playing pranks on people but nothing harmful. Also sleeps around a lot. (Nothing wrong with that)

Malcolm pace made an offhanded comment about how travis should start a new club at uni called “how to steal” and he considers it before shoving the idea away.

During the summer, he helps chiron with any business related things (tax forms, buying shirts, selling strawberries). Connor and him still play a lottttt of pranks

Graduated with honors. Lives in brooklyn With connor who is currently attending college. They still visit CHB from time to time.

So this one time, he steals something but then gets caught. Nothing expensive. A petty offence really. He calls chiron up to save his ass but chirons like NOPE.

So he gets charged. And the court gives him community service since it really was a petty offence.

He has to work with those “plant a tree” volunteer services during the weekend.

Katie is also volunteering there for fun and mostly because during the weekend, she has time to spare.

Travis goes there and is genuinely surprised to see her since he hasnt seen her in 4 years. ( she doesnt visit CHB as often. And even when she does she doesnt see the stolls)

Katie is genuinely surprised too.

First day, they dont talk the whole morning- just planting trees. Katie is still curious as to why he is here. So by the afternoon she asks him.

Shes isnt one bit surprised about the stealing thing. She also forgave them about the Easter Bunny cabin incident as it was 8 years ago??¿¿

Hes kinda nervous and blushing when he tells her the truth. Tbh he had a tiny crush on her back when they were teens. But it sorta went away, as they didnt interact much.

They catch up and its mostly just small talk. The next day, they talk more and katie realises travis has changed. He isn’t as annoying anymore. Travis also realises that katie has changed as she doesnt lecture and scold people anymore. Shes become more chill

The volunteering thing is over so they exchange numbers, promising to keep in touch. However over text, their convo is dry seeing as they arent THAT close and with their busy adult lifes. They slowly drift apart.

Fast forward another year. Katie works at her environmental firm and they start a new project. The firms brings in business consultants because the project has to be a success. One of the consultants is obvio TRAVISSSSSS.

Again both of them are surprised to see each other. Like always they dont really talk in the beginning. Mostly small talk. But then they get paired together for a part of the project.

So then it begins, late nights, coffee runs, laughter at 11pm in the office. Trying to work on numbers and investors and getting the most out reach on this project.

They get to know each other on a much higher level. They start to like each other but wont say anything.

Travis admits katie is gorgeous. And katie admits travis is handsome (not to each other. They just think about it)

2 months later, katie invites travis over to work on the project, trying to come up with an action plan. He brings over beer. And they settle in. Its 2 am. And they both are tipsy.

The project is long forgotten, and start talking about weird things like is cereal soup? Is gucci even worth it?

Its 2 am. Katies apartment is dim because of the lighting. They are both drunk. Sitting on the floor, extremely close to each other. Travis find hers absolutely gorgeous. Her cheeks are flushed coz of the alcohol. And shes wheezing so hard coz of what he said.

Katie thinks he looks hot as hell. And with his knowledge on business she finds him 1000 times more attractive.

Travis kisses her first, he pulls back about to apologise, before katie grabs him by the shirt and kisses him back. They have drunk sex on the carpet.

When travis wakes up the next morning, he realises he fucked up. Sleeping with a coworker. What was he thinking? You dont mix business and pleasure.

So he leaves her apartment. And when katie wakes up to see him not there she is kinda hurt.

They see each other in the office next day. And travis cant make eye contact with her. Katie is super confused because she thought he had a good time.

When everyone goes to lunch. She grabs travis and pushed him into a broom closet. And practically interrogates him.

Travis admits he likes her and she says the same. They’re super close to each other(coz of the tiny closet). The electricity in the air is charged. And they kiss again.

Travis doesnt wanna have sex in a closet so he picks her up, slams her on a table in the closet, bunches her tight skirt around her hips, and goes down her.

And katies just trying not to moan loudly. But failing miserably. Travis stoll knows how to eat pussy.

The rest of the day is filled with luscious glances, slight touches, her putting her hand on his thigh under the table and slowly inching upwards.

They meet up that evening at her apartment. And they agree to start dating. They keep it lowkey not yet telling connor.

After 1 month, they tell connor who btw called it from day one. He’s extremely happy for them.

Travis gets a bit jealous when guys flirt with katie and vice versa. But the two them only have eyes for each other.

Katie gets paired with another guy from the office for some work. Travis also notices that the guy checks katie out a lot, even though she is oblivious.

because of their conflicting work schedules, and how they never get to see each other. Katie working on the project with “that guy”travis is busy with his work, and helping connor out in his senior year. Late nights where they miss each other so much

And thats when their first real fight happens. Hes yelling. Shes yelling. Travis gets insecure that katie doesnt want him anymore. Katies positive they are gonna break up.

In a last ditch effort, she goes to his place. And have a painfully truthful conversation on how they both messed up. They promise to do better and communicate more

That night they make ~~love~~ to each other. Not sex, LOVEEEEE.

After that its smooth sailing. They have fights now and then, but nothing they cant handle.

Their first “I love you’s” is a week after they made love to each other. She was making dinner ( shes a fucking amazing cook) and travis is standing behind her arms around her waist, chin on her shoulders.

And they’re talking and he says “well thats one of things i love about u” and after a second he realises what he said and practically freezes. Katie stops stirring the pasta and turns to look at him.

They both just kinda stare at each other and travis is so fucking nervous and then katie breaks out into the most breathtaking smile he has ever seen. she tells him i love u back.

Their kissing turns to making out and he picks her up, slams her on the kitchen counter and they have sex. (They also turned off the stove dw)

2 orgasms later. They finally eat dinner. And things between them are fucking amazing

After dinner they retreat back to the bedroom where katie is screaming his name and travis’ grunting heavily.

And it’s complete bliss.....

Also side note. Hermes and demeter 100% approve

“You alright, Koge? You look like you’re about to shit yourself.” 

“H-huh?” 

Koge was startled out of her stupor by the familiar low growl of her lover’s voice, pulling her gaze from the crowd of people below them to look up. At first, her keen eyes glanced over the ornate headpiece he wore, the jewels and beads flickering with the reflected yellow light of the torches perched up on the walls on either side of their balcony. His crimson glare, softened with concern, gleamed with a similar brilliance, and Koge found herself blushing fiercely just from looking at him. Head tilting to the side a bit in slight annoyance of her having not heard him properly, the blonde fluffy hair Bakugou sported bobbed with the movement, beads and jewelry clacking. 

“I asked if you were okay. You’ve been sitting here like an actual statue from the instant we got here.” 

“I’m okay… Just… there’s more people than I expected there to be…” Koge fiddled nervously with a lock of her white hair, which spilled over her shoulders in loose curls, styled expertly by servants who pampered her in preparation for this huge event. Well, calling it just an ‘event’ was a huge understatement. In fact, it was her wedding reception, the ceremony having just been completed not even an hour earlier. She knew that she should be enjoying herself, but every moment of the night had been much more stressful than she could have ever anticipated. Bakugou had warned her that it would be very busy and festive, as was the culture she was marrying into, but that still didn’t prepare her for this. Hundreds of people, from commoners, to politicians, to royalty from other countries, all gathered below.

Not only were they there to celebrate the marriage of their Lord and his Lady, but also the recent liberation of their kingdom from the tyrant that had stolen the land many, many years ago. The rightful ruler had returned, and brought with him a lover and heir, and though the boy was tucked safely away from the festivities, just the fact that the child was alive and healthy was to be celebrated. It truly was a joyous time, and still, Koge couldn’t quite gather the courage to be herself. She was sure that everyone in this room thought her odd, and that Bakugou’s choice in marrying her was a foolish one. After all, she was a dragon halfling that had lived in a forest for over three hundred years, on top of the fact that she couldn’t understand a single word of regular human speech. How was she supposed to help rule this land if she couldn’t even properly communicate?  

Koge had brought this to Bakugou’s attention, of course, but he was quick to shut down her negative thoughts. She was who he wanted, who he loved, and after having nearly lost her, he refused to even entertain the thought of not having her by his side. How fiercely the two of them had fallen for each other wasn’t something that Koge could easily explain nor really understand herself, especially after all the trauma she had experienced this past year. Being used as a slave the way she was, abused and pushed to her limits had made her feel like no one could ever truly accept her again. Yet here she was, sitting beside Bakugou in their thrones, a brilliant ring on her finger and a fresh tattoo of the country's brand on her right shoulder to match his. They were connected now by more than just love, though nothing could ever be more significant to her than the way she felt for him. 

Other people didn’t have to understand it, nor did they have to necessarily approve. They just had to accept and shut their mouths, as Bakugou had put it earlier that day before the ceremony even began. Would he have been better off marrying a princess from another country? Probably. Did he have offers thrown at him like mad all the way up until the day of the wedding? Of course he did, and he ignored every single one, even those that were so brash as to come waltzing up to the palace gates with the proposed bride in tow. It had been annoying, and hurt Koge’s already bruised confidence in the beginning, but each time she heard him snap that he already had a bride, she only fell even further in love with him. 

“I had told you there would be a lot.” Bakugou reached across the gap between their thrones to take her fidgeting hand gently, holding it securely with a comforting grip. “Relax. No one will act up if that’s what you’re nervous about.” 

“I’m… mostly nervous about when we go down there to mingle, and I won’t be able to understand the conversation… What if someone addresses me and I just stand there like an idiot?” 

“I wouldn’t let that happen. I’ll tell you. And besides, you’ve gotten really good at reading lips lately. You’ll be fine.” Bakugou brought his hand up as he leaned over, kissing her petite fingers tenderly. “If you get too overwhelmed, we can take a break.” His lips trailed across her skin until he reached where her jeweled silver wedding band rested, pressing a final, lingering kiss on top of it. “I won’t let this go wrong. I love you.” 

More heat rushed to Koge’s cheeks, smiling as she stroked his finger with her thumb. “I love you, too. Aahh, I can’t believe you’re finally my mate!” Koge’s tail wagged about happily behind her, since her throne was specially made with a gap to accommodate the long and slender appendage. 

“Tch,” Bakugou’s cheeks flushed behind his ceremonial makeup, his lips pressed against her fingers in his embarrassment. “We’re technically just married in a human sense, we haven’t officially… mated yet. In a dragon sense. Not even sure if we really can.” 

“You could always let me do that.” Koge gave him a sly grin, showing off her sharp canines. “Your human side is more prominent than your dragon, anyways! You don’t go into rut like I go into heat--” 

“Shh!” Bakugou snapped at her to hush, his face and ears only flushing darker as Koge broke out into giggles at the sight of him growing flustered just by the mere mention of her marking him. “We’ll talk about it later! People will get confused if they hear you call me that, just stick to husband, will ya?!” 

“Okay, okay! I just think that calling you my mate is cuter.” 

“Ooh, you two finally moving on to ‘mate’ status, are you?” 

The familiar cheery voice pulled the couples attention, both of them peering around the sides of their thrones to see a sharp toothed, grinning redhead pop out of the curtains behind them. Koge had been able to smell him approaching, so he hadn’t started her, but Bakugou was immediately frustrated at his appearance. 

“You fucking lard, get out of here! You aren’t allowed up here!” 

“Hey man, I’m not a lard right now! If you didn’t want me to be able to go where I wanted, you shouldn’t have let me be enchanted or whatever.” Squatting down behind the thrones, familiar reddish-orange eyes glanced back and forth between the couple curiously. “How’s it goin’? You guys good up here on your own?” 

“You’re so protective, Red.” Koge gave a small smile, purring sweetly with the presence of her kin. “Oops, Kiri, I mean. You should go enjoy the party instead of waiting around up here.” 

“How long have you been guarding us?! That’s not your job!” Bakugou huffed, releasing Koge’s hand as she took it back to herself. “We have soldiers for that, Kirishima.” 

“No one’s better suited to guard you than me,” Kirishima’s already wide grin somehow grew, smoke rising from between his teeth in a mild territorial display. “Though, I didn’t come up here just to be annoying. People are wondering when you’re going to come down.” 

“Uhm…” Koge reached up to touch her blue crystal headpiece tenderly, making sure it hadn’t moved. “Well… We have been up here a bit, and we already did the speech or whatever. Maybe we should?” 

Bakugou’s glare softened as he caught Koge’s pale blue gaze, silent for a moment as he considered their options. “I haven’t brought it up because I wanted to make sure you were comfortable first.” 

Koge smiled, her cheeks flushing a bright pink, bringing her white freckles to attention. “If I’m with you, I’ll be okay, Katsuki. Let’s go.” Standing together, she took his arm as he offered it to her, stepping in close with her hand resting tenderly on his bicep. “Just don’t let me trip again, I’m not used to shoes!” 

“Right. You klutz.” Bakugou chuckled, glancing at Kirishima as the redhead popped up and vanished back behind the curtains, pulling them open to allow the two easy access to the stairway. Before they went down, he went ahead, his thick, red scaled tale swaying about behind him with each step. It was odd to Bakugou to see his childhood dragon companion in human form, but it had been something Red really wanted, and as a reward for his heroic part in taking back their country, Bakugou awarded him an enchantment that gave him a human body. He could transform at will now, which was both helpful and frustrating, as he often still lost control of his ability when he got flustered or protective, transforming into a giant dragon in a crowded room on more than one occasion. 

As they reached the bottom of the stairs, Koge let out a nervous, trembling breath, her eyes darting this way and that as she observed the crowds. Immediately upon their arrival to the party floor, the entire room erupted in claps and cheers, the more rowdy and belligerent of Bakugou’s people breaking through the polite applause with loud curses and well wishes. 

“So loud,” Koge spoke softly, covering her mouth with delicate fingers. “Oh-! That was a sword being thrown over there, did you see it?!” 

Snickering, Bakugou gave one of his friends a rough slap on the shoulder as they passed him, making their way deeper into the group. “Koge, the fancy ceremony is over. Now’s the time to let loose. Just don’t let anyone step on your tail.” 

Let loose they did. With a mix of their presence, alcohol, good food, and music, the entire huge ballroom was shifted into a rowdy swarm of dancing bodies. The adrenaline, cheer, and pure excitement was contagious, and Koge could barely even hear anyone over the music enough to worry about if she could understand them. Just as he swore to her, Bakugou never left her side, except allowing her to dance with Kirishima. Watching her from the sidelines, Bakugou’s heart felt full to the brim with happiness, just her smile and laughter enough to send him over the moon. 

If he were honest, he couldn’t believe that they were actually here in this moment. He could clearly remember just over a year ago, where he was cold, hungry, alone and lost, chasing a dream. But now, he had achieved that dream, and gained a treasure that was more precious to him than any jewel in the world. He had Koge and his son, the start of a family he never thought he’d have, and a happiness he was sure would be eternal. 

“Katsuki!” Koge squealed with laughter as she was spun towards her lover, immediately caught and wrapped in his strong embrace. “Kiri is a crazy dancer! Don’t let me do that again!” 

Before Bakugou could respond, there was a change in song, one which was an incredibly popular group dance that called hordes of people to the dance floor. Instead of getting pulled in with them, Bakugou was able to weasel himself and his wife out of the crowd, ducking out of the ballroom and out into the surrounding gardens. He didn’t stop until he was sure they were out of sight, letting the little halfling stand as steady as she could on wobbling legs. Giggling with her adrenaline, Koge held onto his arms for support, looking up at him through disheveled hair. 

“Why are we out here?” 

Unable to resist a snarky smirk in amusement of her appearance, Bakugou pushed her hair back out of her face before caressing her cheeks with both hands, leaning in to kiss her lips. “Koge, you wouldn’t have been able to survive that group dance. You look like you need some air, anyway.” 

“I do!” Koge took a few steps back from him, shifting off the heavy ornamental shawl she wore to expose her more dainty lace bodice and chiffon blouse beneath it. Letting it rest on the clean grass, Koge then slipped out of her shoes, sighing in relief as her sore feet met the cool ground. “That feels good!” 

Following her example, Bakugou shifted off his cape, tossing it away with her shawl, and his boots were quick to follow. “Fuck shoes. Honestly, I can’t wait to get out of all this ornamental crap!” 

“Yes, fuck shoes.” Koge came up to stand in front of him, tenderly taking both of his hands in hers once they were free. Still feeling full of energy, Koge began to sway her arms and hips from side to side along with the music, which whispered across the garden to be swallowed by the moonlight. “It’s interesting how your culture is so focused on jewelry and ornamental things for ceremonies, especially since everyone is so… not fancy.” 

Bakugou chuckled, allowing his arms to sway with hers as she moved. “A lot of this stuff has been passed down through my family for a really long time and it’s old as shit. I have to wear the traditional crap, but you get everything brand new.” 

“There’s nothing traditional for the person marrying into the family?” 

“The tradition is that the person marrying in gets new items and jewelry especially made for them. Usually, depending on if it’s a man or woman marrying in, the Lord or Lady would offer them one item from their time being married in. But… my mother's unique items were lost. All that was left was the shit I’m wearing. Besides, this is the start of a new generation. You deserve all the new and glittery shit.” 

Koge purred sweetly as Bakugou caressed his cheeks, pressing his lips against her forehead. She let her arms rest around his torso, her tail coming around to wrap around their hips to link them together. “My Katsuki…” As another soft kiss was placed onto her lips, Koge’s keen hearing picked up on a change in the music, making her turn her gaze back towards the ballroom. “Oh, wait, isn’t that our slow song we’re supposed to dance to? Should we go back?” 

“Fuck it,” Bakugou turned her face back towards him with gentle pressure, once again catching her lips. With his affection, he began to sway them to the music, one arm wrapping around her waist while the other stayed firmly in place against her neck. Koge couldn’t resist him, her soft purr rumbling in her chest as she felt cocooned in his warmth, catching his gaze as a smile crossed his lips. 

“You sure, Katsuki?” 

“I want this moment for us, Koge. I don’t give a shit about all those people watching us… All I care about is you.” Taking a step back with the music cue, it took very little for Koge to realize that he still wanted to do the dance they practiced, so she followed his lead with very little fumbling. 

As they danced, barefoot out in the grass with nothing but moonlight to guide their way, Koge began to feel like she had truly found her peace. She never thought that she would see him again, let alone be calling him her mate, and how lucky she was to be here like this hadn’t quite hit her until that moment. With a spin beneath his arm, it was as if her movements turned a lock that she had been refusing to unlatch that entire night in fear of what may come rushing out. Of course, it was an overwhelming mix of happiness, disbelief, excitement, and even a dash of sadness that all of this might not last. With it all came the tears, and though she tried to hold them back, they fell free with a hitching of her breath once she was pressed back up against his body to rock slowly. 

“Koge?” 

Shoving her face into his chest to try and hide it from him, Koge tried to choke down a sob, her tail once again coming to wrap around them both. “Sorry, Katsuki… It’s… It’s nothing.” 

“It doesn’t sound like nothing.” Bakugou stroked the back of her head softly, being considerate of her headpiece and jewelry. “Talk to me.” 

His strong grip holding her close calmed and comforted her enough to take a deep breath, though she still couldn’t find it in herself to look up at him. “I’m so happy… I really am. But I just… I worry about what happens next… What if I still can’t recover and I… all I do is cause you trouble. You’d end up sick of me…” 

Frowning, Bakugou’s eyes moved to Koge’s horns, which were still cracked and shattered from her recent enslavement. They were a visible representation of how broken she was inside, her months of abuse at the hands of those that had taken her - no, those whom he had sold her to - had deeply embedded trauma and fears that wouldn’t be healed easily. It had been five months now that he had brought her home after rescuing her from the fate he had selfishly forced upon her, and there were so many things that hadn’t returned to them. He had expected her healing to take a long time, he had no right to complain or be upset about the way she acted in certain situations, but that didn’t stop him from craving what they had before, when their love was fresh and uninhibited. 

Her worries about upsetting him were justified, however. It was true that things were incredibly difficult, with her constant nightmares and panic attacks set off by something as simple as his hand coming to rest on the back of her neck or the sound of his belt slipping loose from his pants. Kissing without worry was something they had achieved just a little over two weeks ago, but if it escalated too quickly, Koge would pull back and her insecurities of her body would breach the surface. She was too ashamed of herself to still hardly let him look at her naked, let alone touch or make love to her. Her comfort and happiness were very easily crushed, and though Bakugou had done his best to tread carefully, there were times where his brash personality caused a whole new round of issues. 

Yes, there were things that were difficult and that made their reconnection slow going, but it was the times that the improvement shone through that made Bakugou feel hopeful. Her sweet purrs at his touch. Her cheeks flushing. A smile instead of a grimace. One less article of clothing when she crawled into bed with him. Her pointed ears twitching in excitement at the sound of his footsteps instead of hunched and fearful shoulders. The courage to be alone instead of panicking without him or Kirishima by her side. How protective she was of their son calming enough to let him carry the child around the castle without her at his heels. All of these things had been nearly impossible to achieve the first month or two of her being with him again, and although most issues were something that anyone else would roll their eyes at, Bakugou couldn’t help but feel over the moon with each little step towards progress. 

“That’s not true, Koge,” Bakugou ran a thumb up and down along the length of one of her horns, the smooth glasslike texture cool beneath his naturally flushed skin. “At all. If only you could see things through my eyes. Yes, it can be difficult sometimes, but your recovery is going a lot quicker than you think. Like just this morning, while we laid in bed before Matsuki woke up… You let me touch you and kiss every uncovered inch of you. You’re so damn beautiful, it made me happy just to get to praise you like that. Just to get the chance to adore you.” Cupping both of her cheeks, he used only gentle persuasion to prompt her to look up at him, his thumbs lightly wiping away her tears without streaking her ceremonial makeup. “I will always adore you. And I’m willing to wait an eternity for you.” 

More tears replaced the ones he had wiped away, bringing Koge to sniffle as she gazed up at him. “I… thought I had annoyed you? You were happy?” 

“I don’t think you understand how fucking happy the simplest things make me. I thought I had lost you, Koge. I didn’t think I was going to be able to find you again… So I treasure fucking everything. Every little touch and kiss. You’re my world. You know that.” Bakugou pressed his forehead against hers tenderly, careful of the jewelry they wore. “You make me feel things I never thought I could feel. If I had even the slightest doubt in you - in us - then things would be different. But here I am, married to your little halfling ass, because I love you. And I sure as hell am not going to give up on you.” 

Hiccupping as she tried to contain her emotions, Koge wrapped her arms around his neck, pushing herself up onto her tiptoes to hug him tightly. Though, she didn’t have to support herself much as Bakugou returned the affection, his arms around her petite torso and hands caressing her body to hold her close. As he did, a deep, low rumbling began in his chest, immediately bringing forth a matching sound from Koge, whose tail began to sway back and forth in happiness. 

“Aw Katsuki…” Koge sniffled, nuzzling her face into his neck. “You’re purring again! I thought it was just a fluke during the ceremony but… You really can purr.” 

“I think you bring out the dragon in me, Koge. First the growling and the stronger magic… Now I’m purring like a fucking whelp. Mm, maybe we will be able to mate properly one day when you’re ready.” He gave the skin of her neck a teasing light nibble, immediately bringing a soft giggle from her lips as she pressed herself in closer to him, her tail wrapping back around their hips. 

“Maybe I’ll be ready by your first rut, which will probably come around my first heat. I… really do miss being intimate with you, Katsuki… I’m sorry-” 

“Don’t apologize. You have nothing to apologize for.” 

Releasing him and falling to stand normally, Koge caught his gaze, her cheeks immediately flushing with the calmness of his expression. His usually stern brow had not a single crease, and just looking at him flooded her with such a strong sense of calmness that she felt as if all her fears and worries would flutter away off her shoulders. She wished they would, so she could feel as close to him as she had before, but her demons were persistent. Bakugou was, too, and she knew that he wouldn’t stop until he had chased away every single nasty little imp. “You’re right… You want to know something?” 

“Hm?” Bakugou’s response was quiet as his hands caressed her cheeks again, his crimson gaze scanning every inch of her face as if he were in a trace. Koge couldn’t resist a smile, her hands resting tenderly over his. 

“I used to dream about this… Standing in the moonlight with the person I loved. Almost every night, way before you were even alive… I spent such a long time alone that I figured it was just something that I was picturing to feel better. But this is really exactly what I used to dream of… Something that I never thought I’d have.” 

“I never thought I’d have this, either. I thought it was all lost… My homeland. You. But now I have everything. We have everything. And I’ll give you anything you want. I’ll protect you. Forever.” Another soft and passionate kiss was shared, with Koge resting her body against him as a soft purr echoed from her chest. Though, the sentimental moment was shattered by the call of a familiar voice, making Koge jump as she hadn’t noticed his scent over the smell of the flowers. 

“Hey! There you two are! I got worried, why’d you come all the way out here?” Kirishima jogged towards them, coming to a stop a few feet away to still allow them privacy, his reflective keen eyes immediately noticing the clothes resting on the grass. “Oh, wait- are you two-? Like-” 

“No!” Bakugou barked, wrapping his arms back around Koge tightly enough to make her squeak. “We just wanted some air from the party!” 

“Oooh, did I make you a little winded with our dance, Koge?” Kirishima grinned, calming down from his mild protective panic. “You missed your slow dance! People are asking for you, too. Want me to tell them what’s up?” 

“No, no,” Koge peeked up over Bakugou’s bicep, placing her hands tenderly on his sides. “I enjoyed our dance! But I did need some air. We’re ready to go back, though?” She looked up at Bakugou, who seemed reluctant to agree. Still, he gave a sigh and a nod in agreement, giving a flick of his wrist to command his friend away. 

“Fine! We’ll be back in a minute!”

“No worries! I’ll just let them know that you stepped out for a bit and you’ll be back! You two have fun under the sun- er, I mean, moon!” 

Koge giggled softly as Bakugou groaned in agony of his friend’s idiocy, hiding his face in Koge’s shoulder once Kirishima was out of earshot. “Fuck, I swear, having this new form has just made me realize how stupid he’s always been. It was so much more tolerable when he couldn’t talk.” 

“Aw, he’s just concerned, it’s okay. Honestly, I can see how he’d make that mistake, for us it’s very bright out here. Night and day aren’t all that different. Ready to go back?” 

Releasing a heavy sigh, Bakugou stood back up straight, caressing her sides gently. “I guess we should. I just love being alone with you.” 

“Me too, Katsuki.” Koge smiled, leaning forward to place a soft kiss on his chest. “But you know what?” 

“Hm?” 

“We have our whole lives to make time to be alone together. And I honestly can’t wait for every second. Now, my king, let’s go dance and have a little wine!” 

“You got it, my queen.”

2x13 The Last Dragonlord

I really appreciate that this picks up 2 days into the dragon's scourge. We were shown that Merlin knew what would happen if he set Khilgarrah free; he chose to do it anyway. There was no reason to pick up ten minutes later when everyone is scrambling trying to get a defense together while Uther demands to know how he got free. The little time jump that puts us right into the thick of it was exactly the right creative call imo.

Why IS the dragon going after Arthur? And how does nobody hear him yelling at Merlin about his magic?

Arthur taking off his gloves and sitting down in a pained relief while Uther goes off about 'rid ourselves of this aberration' is a mood. He's fighting off a damn dragon all night and then doing admin all morning while his dad is there all fresh and clean and conveniently ignoring the fact that it's HIS pet that's got out and is murdering people and destroying the castle. Like how about you do whatever you did to capture it in the first place, again?

Lol @ Gaius 'Bee tee dubs I've known who your pops is this whole time, he's not only alive but also a Dragonlord, which isn't something I thought fit to you tell you in all that time you were having campfire chats with the great dragon Uther's kept chained up in the basement for twenty years! Safe journey!'

Wtf with Arthur's magical moving bed. What were they thinking with that staging. Also, this is why you don't throw pillows at ppl. He throws his pillow at Merlin and now he must lay there pillowless.

Merlin's known his dad for five minutes and he's already lying to him about his boyfriend.

Balinor said, 'let Uther die, let Camelot fall' and Merlin is like, disappointed? But wtf did he expect? Dude lives in a cave cuz Uther's pursued him so far in an attempt to rid the world of Dragonlords. Like why would his indifference shock you?

Arthur's just blatantly flirting with Merlin in that campfire scene.

Merlin wins the award for 'most awkward and drawn out familial confession ever'

I do feel for Merlin. He's so awkward and hopeful and clearly romanticizing the perceived 'missing piece' in his life/upbringing, as tho it were a magic fix for everything that's ever gone wrong in his life. It's painful to watch, partly because Colin plays it so well.

Arthur and Merlin were gone for at least as long as the dragon had been attacking Camelot when they left. At the point when they retuned Camelot would've been under attack for the better part of a week. Kind of shocked Uther didn't have a bunch of knights turn deserters, thinking Arthur's been sent away to preserve the royal lineage.

Arthur's just blatantly flirting again. It's hard not to think he's being so free with his affection because he's fairly goddamn certain they're both going to die. I guess the argument could be made that facing a dragon who is literally burning your castle down around you might've just put things in perspective for Arthur - but really, I doubt it. They're heading back to a Camelot that's been under siege by an unkillable, fire- breathing, flying beast, for days, after having left the only man on earth who could've saved them, who refused to assist them. And Arthur is sitting there downright giddy teasing Merlin. That, my friends, is the *true* face of defeat. The further example is when Arthur is suiting up to go try and fight the dragon in a clearing outside the castle, and he's like, sort of trying to say goodbye to Merlin but also kind of flirting and playing up their usual banter - it's gallows humor, clearly. And the way he melts and doesn't even put up a token objection when Merlin says he's going with him. JUST MAKE OUT ALREADY but it's very much like that absurdist - I don't want to say nihilism, but essentially, acceptance that the odds are overwhelmingly NOT in their favor, and that they're probably going to die and nothing can be done to save them or Camelot. Once you reach that point, you've really only got two options: a) die mad b) live. Arthur really seems to be taking the latter approach, and I'm here for it.

Gotta admit, it was very courteous of Kilgharrah to come meet the knights in that clearing instead of just flying over them to take another pass at destroying the castle with Uther inside it.

That dragon said 'tonight, I'm have bbq knight'. Also I've always kinda given them shit because Leon supposedly went out with them for this, and all the knights lined up to get flambéd yet Leon is ever present in following seasons - but if you actually watch carefully it's Arthur, Merlin, and another knight that get knocked off their horses by the dragon's tail. I may or may not have rewound that part half a dozen times just now to be sure. Looks like two knights on the ground unconscious by Arthur's side.

So. Okay. I understand finding his dragon voice and I understand the whole inherent- language thing, I understand Merlin showing the dragon mercy and letting him go, I understand everything said between them and that's all fine. What I don't understand is how in the holy hell Merlin let him go without demanding answers. Answers to why he wanted to destroy all of Camelot, when he'd spent the last however many years helping Merlin save it, and save Arthur, in order to bring about their destiny. Answers to why he didn't just fucking kill Uther, why attack the lower town? Why attack Arthur who again, he'd repeatedly helped Merlin save, because he's supposed to bring peace and magic to Albion etc? Like HOW IN THE FUCK are you really just gonna let the fucker fly off without explaining himself? Maybe it's just me.

HC: Arthur was so relieved and elated when Merlin told him he'd dealt the dragon a mortal blow, Merlin came over to help him up off the ground but Arthur pulled him down and rolled him over in the grass instead.

Uther watching from the window like a maiden in a tower 🤦‍♀️ get fuuuuuuucked

Big season finale and no commentary track? 😕 probably cuz it was too gay to ignore the gay so they thought it best to just not say anything.

DVD extras in lieu of commentary track:

My favourite part of any of these BTS things are the little tidbits about the horses. And the terrible jokes.

I'm a little bit freaked out by how much Johnny Capps looks like my city councilman? I've never seen him before. If he was in the first season's extras I didn't notice him.

Why is "Cast and crew introduction to S2" on the last disc of the box set?

Googling instead of watching and I've discovered these guys did Atlantis after Merlin, which is a show I randomly started watching and fell in love with and was devastated when it got canceled so quickly.

The "secrets and magic" special feature seems to be an episode-by-episode BTS thing, which I wish I had known earlier as I would've just gone back and forth to watch the feature after the corresponding episode. Since it's too late for that now, and the runtime for the entire feature is nearly three goddamn hours, I'm just going to slog through one single separate post for the entire thing. It'll be posted late tonight or tomorrow. But I'm 1000000% checking the S3 extras BEFORE I start watching the season.

"In depth" analysis (commentary) on Mcs vs Yaha dialogue (part 3, finale)

It's finally over! You can now resume scrolling on your dashboard in peace!

*Bonus. Another weird quote by our friend when the Mc dies in battle. Don't fully understand it, but kinda relieved his "beauty" is his sin... Thinking about again though, he does call his ability to feel sexual pleasure his "luster" so we don't know what "beauty" could be a eufemism for...

Can we all take a moment to appreciate how FRIGGIN GORGEOUS Yaha looks here???????? Like I know he's dying, and bleeding, but he just looks so cute! Actually Yaha always looks cute but this one looks extra nice

This is actually a very sad moment. Poor guy's dying and here we see what Yaha thinks of himself. He recognises he has changed and that he was "damaged". I guess loosing his ability to feel **SeXuAl** **PlEaSuRe** was really dertrimental to his personality. I mean that kinda thing really changes someone, you know!

What can I say... They tried, they really did. They tried to make this sad with him calling himself broken and everything. And it would have all been fine and honestly, pretty sad if it wasn't about LOSING YOUR ABILITY TO FEEL SEXUAL PLEASURE!!!!! That was your "luster"????? Like... What?? Is there something I'm missing??

To be real, we have lots of evidence and we do hear later on from Urick that Yaha was changed a lot by this pact deal. I can't imagine exactly why and the context isn't super helpful, but the best explanation I could come up with was that his ability to seduce anyone he wanted coupled with his inability to feel pleasure when actually engaging with said people might have made him desperate or left him feeling deprived. It's kinda contradictory. You are given the ability to do something you (presumably) really enjoy, with whoever you want without any limitations but you are never allowed to enjoy it again. I guess that's what made him so weird about everything

This line legit upsets me, not only because of how bad I feel for Yaha, but mostly because of Urick's reaction. You'll see it right bellow so all I'm gonna say regarding Urick is that it's usually the person who lives who says "I'll never forget you"...

Can we all just admire the amount of love and dedication Yaha has to and for Urick? If you really think about it, he's had a crush on him since they were young, he held onto that for so long, he got rejected, he sacrificed a part of himself (yeah, I've been making fun of that, but truth is that it was), he suffered because of it, he changed, according to his own words he "was damaged" by this, he has seemingly received nothing from Urick apart from semi harsh kinda aggressive comments and even after all of this, all he has to say was that he's happy he can see him again. He just holds nothing against him... Now I'm not saying he's been the best person to Urick (after all there has to be a reason he's so cold towards him), but even in his last moments he still expresses his love... Of course you could argue that this isn't realistic and that it is probably very unhealthy and obsessive, but I really do find this very heartwarming

*Rip cute baby elf*:'(

This scene and Urick's reaction reminded me a lot of Rei during Yuda's death in Hokuto no Ken. I found it so funny how Yuda was there dying, confessing his love, pouring out all of his feelings and Rei just stood there kinda... Not reacting at all. The difference being, In Hokuto no Ken, Yuda had pretty much ruined Rei's life and even then, Rei seemed pretty upset by his death when he actually died. Here we have two people who were friends from childhood, who for some reason (probably less serious than murdering your parents and kidnapping your sister) fell apart. And after the heartfelt things Yaha said, THIS is what Urick has to say!!!

"Well, I know you devoted your life to me and have been in love with me since forever and I also know you sacrificed a part of yourself to be with me, but... Ugh... You shouldn't have made that pact deal, huge turn off"

What the hell, Urick???!! As much as I like you, this is an awful way to respond to your friend's death! He didn't even touch him or hug him or something! Come on! The guy's dead! You can at least show him some love now! This is such a cold response and it's even worse since it's coming from Urick who's normally so friendly... It does makes things supper complicated too. So far we've had a pretty consistent narrative of what transpired (or might have) between Yaha and Urick and here come these final scenes to just completely contradict everything! But we get the one piece of info; the fact that it was the pact deal that ruined the relationship.

1000000 iq

NOWE!!!! HAVEN'T YOU BEEN PAYING ATTENTION TO ANYTHING YAHA WAS SAYING???

That's were we get direct confirmation that Yaha changed, probably after the pact deal. Also we learn it was that change the ruined the relationship. But here's the weird thing, people change, what could have possibly happened that was so different to drive Urick so cold?

WHAT??? WHAT? WHAT? WAT??? WHAT??

This line just shatters my kyoka suigetsu! I just don't know what to say! If we take this as true, the game has just retconed everything it's told us! Either that, or Urick has just NO IDEA what was going on all these years AND payed 0 attention to what Yaha told him during the fight! Or, Urick is lying because his ex, Yaha borderline exposed their relationship and he is just so much in denial about his sexuality that he doesn't want anyone to even think he could be gay

But srsly WHAT THE HELL??? Urick! Yaha didn't want to "make a name for himself in the knights"!!! He wanted YOU! How do you not know this! This just changes so many things! Their relationship goes from "ex friends with something extra happening in between that was maybe not entirely liked by both" to "man completely oblivious to best friend's feelings even after he literally confesses them". Now this is possible, since Yaha did ask Urick if he knew about his feelings for him. It is also possible that this entire time we had (which we did) Yaha's version of events with Urick not knowing any of this, but this begs the question, if Urick didn't knew up until now, why isn't he reacting differently to Yaha's death. If I had just learned my former best friend was in love with me, I wouldn't be sitting there looking at him die. Also if that was the case, what was it that drove them apart if not Yaha's attempt to get with Urick? Could it be that he was just too preoccupied with sex from that point on? But then why is Urick so mean and cold? This doesn't seem like it was just them drifting apart, something big happened to get Urick to this point.

More than anything, this line doesn't match up with any previous information we know...

"Um... Yeah Nowe, Yaha just... Wanted to be popular within the nights! All of that stuff you heard... That was nothing! Nothing at all! He's just... Well... What? Why I hate him? I hate him because... Uh... He's just... Too... Well that's not important, but it DEFINITELY isn't because he started fucking everybody! DEFINITELY NOT!"

Bonus: this is the single BEST piece of trivia I have ever seen about a character, EVER!

So this thing is over! Are you supper happy about it? I bet you are! Anyway now I'm just gonna go ahead and link the videos I used for these screenshots and... Idk bye!

Babie Crue (6/?)

A/N: Can someone teach me how to make a master list? I really want to make it easier for new readers to find all parts to Babie Crue. Also, I just found the album for The Heroin Diaries! IT FUCKING SLAPS! 1000000/10 would recommend!

Description: After locking Cam and Tommy in a broom closet, the band almost misses soundcheck. The show then runs smoothly, but someone recognizes Cam when she comes on stage for “Your Song”.

Warnings: FLUFFY TOMMY AND CAM, angst? Swearing, mentions of abuse, drinking, and drug use.

~~~~~~~

The band let Cam finish getting ready for the show, despite the fact that they physically could not pull Tommy away from his new love. Cam quickly pecked Tommy’s lips, of course with the promise that he would receive more, then ducked back into her room to adjust her outfit. The band ditched her, hurrying as fast as they could to the venue in order to make soundcheck, but Tommy left a twenty on the door handle before he left, covering Cam’s cab fare. Doc was furious with the band and pulled Cam off to the side when she arrived as well. 

“What the fuck happened, Cam? I thought I told you to keep them on time!” Doc whisper shouted, pulling Cam away from the stage. 

“Doc, they were on time! Nikki and Vince decided a last minute game of 7 Minutes in Heaven was more important. They wouldn’t let me out, okay?”

“Who’d they lock you with? Mick? ‘Cause that fucker needs to get laid like it’s nobody’s business.” Doc joked, taking Grace out of Cam’s arms as they all walked back to see how soundcheck was going. 

“No, actually. They locked me in with...Tommy.” Cam admitted, hanging her head low, the floor suddenly more interesting than Doc’s disapproving look. 

“You have the hots for Tommy? I woulda pegged you a Nikki girl if I’m being honest.” Doc joked again, nudging Cam’s shoulder with his. 

“You’re not mad?” Cam questioned, mildly shocked. 

“Of course not. Why would I be?”

“Employees aren’t supposed to fall in love with the band.” Cam explained.

“Ah, but you’re not an employee, Cam. You’re a friend of the band that just happened to need money. There’s a loophole for everything, right?” Cam nodded and smiled at Doc, a silent thank you for everything he’s done since the tour started. Grace giggled as Vince danced like an idiot to get his niece's attention before going back to center stage and continuing “Looks that Kill”. Doc excused himself, muttering something about how off the lighting was. Grace wanted more attention from her family on stage and almost backflipped out of Cam’s arms to get it. 

“They’ll come back later, pretty girl. Let’s get you fed, alright?” Cam left to the greenroom, bumping into Zutaut. 

“Hey, Cam! Guess what?” Tom asked excitedly, almost like a child. Cam tried not to roll her eyes, but she turned her attention back to the A&R rep. 

“What, Tom?” 

“Motley is gonna have a meet and greet tonight! Thousands of people were chosen at random to meet the band. Isn’t that great?” 

“Yeah, actually it is! Finally Elektra is doing something right. Can you hold Grace a second? I swear, Zutaut, if you drop her it won’t just be me you have to deal with.” Tom gulped as he gingerly held the baby girl in his arms. Cam fixed a bottle for her daughter, shaking the bottle to combine everything. Grace almost did another trapeze act as her chubby hands grabbed the bottle and brought it to her lips. Cam took Grace back and they made their way back to the stage, soundcheck almost over. 

“Alright, guys. Show starts at 9, and afterwards, your very first meet and greet! You’re gonna do great!” Tom left, probably to go find Doc. Tommy then came up to Cam and wrapped an arm around her shoulders, placing a kiss to her hair. 

“Hey, come here!” Tommy pulled Cam towards his drum kit, sitting on the stool and patting his lap. 

“Tommy, no! I can’t play your drums! You won’t even let Nikki play them.” Cam argued. 

“Well, I’m not dating Nikki, now am I?” Tommy smirked, causing Cam to blush and adjust Grace on her hip. 

“No, you’re not. But what do I do with Gracie?”

“Give her to Mick, but come back here, okay?” Cam nodded and made her way over to Mick, who automatically went into dad mode as Grace was transferred to him. Cam smiled at Mick, who of course smiled back and nodded back in the direction of Tommy, the drummer practically bouncing out of his skin. 

“You ready?” Tommy asked as Cam made her way back to him, trying to get comfortable on his lap. He handed her the drumsticks, adjusting her grip as needed. 

“What do I play?” Cam asked, poorly trying to mimic how Tommy spun the sticks between his fingers. Tommy chuckled and kissed Cam’s cheek as he steadied her hands over the drums. 

“How about this, count to three. On one and two, hit the snare. On three, the cymbal. It’ll sound a little like We Will Rock You.” Tommy guided her hands at first, pointing out which drum was the snare, then letting go and resting his hands on Cam’s thighs. 

Cam was ecstatic. She messed up a couple times, but quickly got the hang of it, slightly speeding up.

“Great! Now with your right foot, tap the hammer for the bass drum. Add that one to the snare.” Cam did as she was told, the familiar melody of the Queen song echoing through the empty arena. She was so caught up in what she was doing, she didn’t realize everyone else had grabbed their instruments and joined in the jam session. 

“Buddy, you’re a boy, make a big noise, playing in the streets, gonna be a big man some day! You got mud on your face, you big disgrace, kicking your can all over the place. Singing!” When Vince started singing, Cam jumped and almost dropped the sticks, but Tommy kept her on beat

“WE WILL, WE WILL, ROCK YOU!” Everyone joined in on the chorus and eventually, they all made it through the song, including Mick’s version of Brian May’s guitar solo, which Cam thought was a little better than the original. Everyone applauded Cam as she turned and hid her bright red face in her flannel. 

“You should replace Tommy. You’re good for an amateur.”  Vince commented as Tommy wrapped his arms around Cam’s waist and placed a few kisses on her neck. 

“I agree. Too bad we can’t play We Will Rock You for every show.” Nikki added, teasing Cam slightly. 

“Doors open in three!” someone yelled, breaking up the impromptu jam session. Tommy had been so preoccupied, his hair and makeup weren’t done, which horrified Cam. Hair and make up couldn’t be done in three minutes, but Cam knew Ruby was magic in a crunch. 

“Go get ready, Tommy.” Doc ordered, interrupting the new couple’s cuddle session behind the drums. Tommy nodded and kissed Cam on her cheek as he left. Cam hid her gaze from Doc, a knowing smile splitting his face in two, and scurried to the greenroom. Thankfully, Grace had fallen asleep in Mick’s arms and the guitarist placed her on the couch, adjusting the pillows so she wouldn’t fall onto the floor. 

~~~~~~~

“Okay, y ’all, you know the drill! We have a very special friend on tour with us, and every night, her baby girl falls asleep to this song! We’d like to bring her out, but we’re gonna need some help in serenading this amazing creature! Can y ’all do that?!” The crowd bellowed in response to Vince’s question as Tommy moved to the piano. 

“You heard them, Cam! Get your cute ass out here!” Tommy bellowed into his own mic as Cam made her way to the stage. Tommy winked at her as she shuffled onto the stool placed next to Vince and the chords for “Your Song” started playing. 

Everyone was singing, serenading Cam, except for one person. He was enjoying the show, and he knew about this tribute, but no one he knew had ever been close enough to identify Cam. He almost dropped his drink when she came out on stage looking happy and safe. He hated that. He wanted her to burn. And he had the perfect excuse to get close to her: Motley Crue’s meet and greet.

~~~~~~~

The song ended, which meant the show was over. The boys bowed and left the stage, Tommy and Nikki wrapping their arms around Cam’s shoulders as they escorted her off stage. Doc quickly ushered all of them to a separate room where the meetup was going to happen. Fans were quickly arriving, the line filled with a loud buzzing of excitement. 

“Cam, we’re gonna have you greet people as well, but while they wait in line. Is that cool with you?” Zutaut asked, escorting her to the front of the line. 

“Yeah! Find someone to watch Grace for me? Please don’t let it be another groupie; they’ll just try to steal her ‘cause all of Motley has touched her.” 

“On it, doll. Have fun!” Zutaut left Cam to deal with the excited fans that were waiting. She spotted a little girl, maybe four years old, and immediately went towards her.

“Hi sweetie! What’s your name?” Cam asked, kneeling to meet the girl’s eyeline. 

“My name’s Lucy! And you’re Cam!” 

“I am! Lucy is a very pretty name! Are you excited to meet the band?” Cam smiled so brightly, her cheeks hurt. 

“Yes! I mostly wanted to meet you though.” Lucy answered, suddenly getting shy and hiding behind her dad’s leg. 

“Oh yeah? Well besides me, who’s your favorite in the band?”

“Nikki. He’s pretty!” Cam giggled at Lucy’s answer. Cam stood and held out her hand, which Lucy happily took. Cam escorted the little girl and her parents to the room where the band was, and Lucy squealed loudly. 

“Who’s this pretty lady?” Vince asked, kneeling onto the floor, the rest of the band following. 

“This is Lucy! She’s so excited to meet you, isn’t that right?” Lucy nodded, suddenly shy again, but opting to hide behind Cam instead of her dad. 

“Hey, sweetheart! Did you like the show?” Tommy asked. Lucy nodded again. Cam knelt in front of Lucy, running her fingers through her soft blonde hair. 

“Do you want me to introduce you to them? I promise they’re not as scary as they look, it’s just a lot of makeup and hairspray.” Lucy nodded, a smile on her face as Cam lifted up the girl in her arms. 

“This is Mick, and Tommy. That’s Vince, and your favorite on the end is..?”

“NIKKI!!” Lucy squealed as she reached for the bassist. Nikki welcomed Lucy with open arms, the girl squeezing her tiny arms around his neck. Cam smiled at the interaction, shook her parent’s hands, and left the family with Motley. 

As she left to go meet more fans, she couldn’t believe how much the band had changed since Grace had been around. Cam had heard stories about little kids meeting their favorite band, but she’d never seen an interaction like that before. 

Making her way down the line, shaking hands and talking to more fans, a hand popped out from deep within the line and grabbed Cam’s wrist. 

“Hello, gorgeous.” Cam’s heart dropped to her feet as her eyes followed the hand to it’s owner. 

“Dev...” Cam’s throat dried as she choked on his name, a sick smile gracing his lips. 

“Oh so you do remember me. I thought you’d be too busy fucking Motley Crue to notice me.” Cam tried to pull her and away, but Dev’s grip was iron on her wrist. 

“Dev, you need to let me go.” Cam protested as Dev pulled her to his chest, face so close she could smell the beer on his breath. 

“Oh no, I’m not letting you go again. Come on, we’re leaving.” Dev pulled her away from the fans, the altercation turning a few heads. As they made their way down the line, someone grabbed Dev’s shoulder in a futile attempt to help free Cam. Dev’s fist flew through the guy, landing on his nose with a sickening crack. The man fell to the ground, but Dev didn’t flinch as he continued to force Cam away from prying eyes. 

“Excuse me, where are you taking Cam?” Zutaut questioned as the pair exited the meeting area. 

“I’m her boyfriend. Our daughter is sick at home and I had to find Cam so she could help with our child. Right, sweetie?” Cam nodded slowly, but silently prayed Tom would go get Doc or someone equally as strong. 

“Hmm. Strange. You must have her confused with someone else with the same name. That’s Vince’s groupie. Been trailing her around for the last three shows.” Zutaut explained, poorly protecting Cam. 

“No she isn’t. She’s coming home with me.” Before Cam or Zutaut could protest further, Dev dragged the woman out to the parking lot. “You thought you could run away from me and get rid of me that easily? Well, baby, I’ve been tracking you for a while. You’re never leaving me again.” 

Cam flinched as Dev slapped her and then kicked her feet out from under her. Once she was on the floor, Dev let go of her arm and migrated to her hair as he proceeded to beat her senseless. 

“What. Were. You. Thinking?” Dev asked as he punched more bruises onto Cam’s body.

“I don’t know! I’m sorry, Dev! I won’t do it again, I promise! Please stop!” Cam pleaded, spitting up blood with every word.

“I don’t believe you!” Dev yelled, preparing to hit Cam again.

“Well believe this!” Dev fell as Nikki punched him across the face. Sharice (who had been around for a while now) pulled Cam to her feet and helped walk her away from the fight between Motley and her ex-boyfriend. 

“They’re gonna get hurt! We have to go back!” Cam whimpered as Sharice helped her on the bus. 

“I promise you, they’ll be okay. You should know better than anyone how they get when someone fucks with someone they love.” Sharice sat across from Cam, just monitoring the mother. 

“Where’s Gracie?” 

“She’s asleep in the back.” Cam nodded her thanks and laid her head on the seat. The door was slammed open and in an instant, Tommy’s face was in front of Cam’s. 

“Baby, stay with me, okay. Focus on my voice. Keep your eyes open, okay? We’re gonna get you cleaned up. Jesus I’m so sorry this happened to you.” Tommy and Nikki lifted Cam from the chair she was in, but she couldn’t feel her legs as they moved her. They placed her next to the sink in the bus, Nikki fluttering around as Tommy started cleaning up Cam’s face. 

Her eye was already swelling and turning purple, her lip the same way. Her nose was bleeding, and there were scratches all over her body from the asphalt and where Dev had broken skin with his boots. Tommy wet a washcloth under the cold tap, grimacing as Cam flinched. He cleaned her as gently as he could while keeping himself calm. 

“Are you okay?” Cam whispered, gripping her fingers on his t shirt, pulling him closer to her. 

“I should be asking you that question, Cam. I’m gonna kill Zutaut for putting you on line duty!” Cam’s hand migrated from Tommy’s shirt to his hand, wrapping her small bruised one around his. 

“Kill him later. Kiss me now.” Cam begged Tommy. The drummer’s heart shattered, but he nodded and leaned in as Cam followed. Her lips were still bloody and swollen, the feeling made Tommy want to puke. She needed this almost as much as he did, so he stayed pressed to her. Cam pulled away with a whine, tears falling from her swollen eyes. 

“Oh baby. I’m so sorry.” Tommy apologized as he pulled Cam to his chest, letting the mother cry as hard and as long as she needed to. He swore on her life that she wouldn’t get hurt again, and he failed. But that wouldn’t happen again. Even if it was his life for hers, Tommy would do anything to protect Cam, starting with Dev.

final thoughts on he is psychometric

so just to get this out of the way: when i first heard that jinyoung and yeeun would be in a thriller drama together, i wasn’t expecting this + i wasn’t really excited either because i’m not the biggest fan of thriller (at least it wasn’t horror). and i wasn’t even excited unTIL the official trailer dropped and i was like OHOHOH THIS LOOKS FUN. 

IT WAS NOT FUN.

OR AT LEAST, IT WAS FUN FOR LIKE THREE EPISODES. 

this drama was really really well executed and while the ending is too... eh in my opinion, it’s not as bad as other endings i’ve seen before. 

the pace of the overall drama was PERFECT. maybe the editors went a little too overboard in the flashbacks (i thought it was irrelevant to put a flashback of something that happened earlier in the episode) sometimes, but it was fast paced so it didn’t lose it’s momentum. i was on the edge of my seat the entire time and the plot twists were UGHGHGH FRUSTRATING but it made sense to the plotline. except for maybe jisoo’s death. idk. like i get it did up the shock factor, but i don’t feel like the characters had enough time to properly grieve for her and legitimately be thrown off course like i’m sure is the intended purpose. the characters bounced right back too quickly for my liking, especially knowing their emotional ties with her. so her death should’ve been handled better in terms of writing and i’m not even saying this because everyone likes jisoo--i genuinely believe that if they killed her, her death should’ve impacted the characters more or don’t kill her at all. ALSO JAEIN’S KIDNAPPING. it was so obvious she was going to live so it was really anticlimactic. like psychologically, i thought the way of killing her was interesting because i’ve never seen a murder like that in shows before, but;;;;;;;; idk jaein’s kidnapping was kinda irrelevant because everyone knew she was going to live. maybe if she was kidnapped a bit later than it would’ve been more believable. 

IN TERMS OF THE CONCLUDING EPISODE, like most dramas, they try to cram too much in that one hour. i felt like the trials could’ve been longer unless that was the director’s intended effect to quickly sum up everyone’s sentences IDK IT DOESN’T REALLY SIT WELL WITH ME. especially with geuntaek’s trial because in the end, he got what he wanted: to see kang eunjoo. and while her arc ended that she gained the courage to finally speak up, i don’t like how geuntaek got to see her one last time. 

also i wish we got to see a biiiiit more of jaein and her dad because they look so happy together :( but their interaction in the prison didn’t seem too realistic to me either. he seemed too happy. and even though i get why he would, he also tried to commit suicide to stop jaein so i feel like he should’ve, scolded her a bit or something idk like your typical asian parent would do

as for seungmo UGH I DON’T KNOW WHAT I FEEL TOWARDS HIM. because WOW the writers did an AMAZING job at getting us to sympathize with him and root for him only for him to STILL BE NOBLE AND TURN HIMSELF IN AND ASLIDFHASDFAS under all his circumstances, it makes sense that most people would pity him and the writers executed that FLAWLESSLY. but he still killed people and lied to many others and im so :(((((( i wanted him to have a happy ending but with 13 years in prison, he would be incarcerated for 22 years of his life and that just seems so cruel. and those years he lived free? he lived in worry and guilt I WOULD UNDERSTAND IF THE SENTENCE WAS ABOUT 3-7 YEARS because he did admit to everything he did + was a minor and everything else the trial stated but 13 years seem so cruel >:( but then again, it is pretty realistic so,,, what can you do :( 

i would write more about the other characters like ahn and jaein and daebong and seohyun but i love them too much there’s nothing much to talk about rather than me screaming about how much i love them. the mundane moments were so cute <3333 THE CAST WAS REALLY AMAZING IN TERMS OF ACTING LIKE I HAD REALLY REALLY REALLY LOW EXPECTATIONS FOR JINYOUNG GOING IN (idols don’t have the best rep when they gain a drama role ESPECIALLY for a non school life drama and I haven’t watched Jinyoung in anything besides 3 episodes of Dream Knight lkasdfjlasdf) and I didn’t really like Do Hana in A-TEEN that much so like, i was alskdfasdkfjasdf iffy going in but WOW they really stole my heart. Kim Kwon and Dasom were really amazing as well. I can’t say too much about Dasom because I don’t know her personality and Jisoo was cute and badass and your normal relatable girl so asdioufhsd if anything, Dasom’s personality could be really similar to Jisoo. But her conviction in trying to solve the case was really well executed. You can see her struggle of wanting to find the truth even though her crush might be behind everything. AS FOR KIM KWON WOW. I HAVEN’T WATCHED HIM IN ANYTHING ELSE BUT I BELIEVE IT TAKES MAJOR SKILL TO PLAY STOIC CHARACTERS since you have to show emotions but at the same time, you can’t show emotions (which is why I hate it when boy idols receive the cold characters bc;;;; their acting isn’t very nuanced :/// sorry boys) and seungmo didn’t even HAVE emotions as a character AND HE SLDAKFASDKFJ WOWOOWOWOWOW. he did amazing. the actor for Lieutenant Nam was pretty cool too I’m not gonna lie :’) he was this bumbling officer that made me really uncomfortable, but his lines were pretty cool. and that kinda dumb detective was cute ahaha 

ALSO THE MATH TEACHER IN THE FIRST TWO EPISODES. HE WAS THE GUY WHO PLAYED TWO CHARACTERS IN BONG SOON AND YEESH i really love his acting I had to mention him.

AND OKAY ONE MORE MENTION: THE ACTRESS FOR KANG EUNJOO. I watched her in Love Returns and she was this loud mouth SUPER ANNOYING JUDGEMENTAL AUNT AND I HATED HER CHARACTER TO MY CORE but dang she’s GOOD. Kang Eunjoo is the complete opposite of the aunt in Love Returns, so it was really interesting to see how she played Eunjoo.

ALSO. I’M SO SAD THAT THIS DRAMA IS GOING TO WASTE IN TERMS OF HYPE it was so good and fresh and different i’m surprised it didn’t receive more viewership :((( okay, actually, i’ve seen a couple people not like the show that much and like, i’m kinda biased bc i don’t really watch thriller so a lot of these concepts are somewhat new to me but asdfjklasdf whatever. i thought it was good. i can’t believe it’s over, it was such a crazy ride. so um, if i had to rate the show overall: 9.5/10 I think the execution in every area was very good and there’s nothing i despise too much overall. so i’m VERY satisfied with the show and 1000000% recommend it. 

(last critique: while the cinematography was pretty good, sometimes a little TOO MANY TIMES, there were a couple of shots where it seemed like someone was watching a character when really, it was just a badly framed and panned shot to keep everything dynamic. i wouldn’t mind it too much if THERE WEREN’T ALREADY SCENES LIKE THAT BECAUSE A STALKER ACTUALLY EXISTS IN THE STORY)

[warsstag]

                                             JAMES F. POTTER.

                                   twenty. order member. probable trouble maker.                                                 junior auror / in his last year of training.                                                  ex-gryffindor. rebellious. mischievous.                                                          cocky. courageous. moody.                                                                       pinterest.                                                           

BACKGROUND.

James grew up in a large and airy house situated by the beach in Norfolk, England. The house was painted blue, and was a little bit on the older side, which you could tell by the deteriorating panels, which needed constant upkeep. The house and the grounds themselves weren’t exactly suitable for children, with sharp cliffs close to the water, steep staircases inside the house and an attic with a window that just seemed to invite for someone to try to climb onto the roof. The house itself was also very cozy, though. Floorboards that creaked, paintings with a vast amount of personalities ( catch James bickering with the sailor in the painting in the living room, any day ), warmth from the fireplace, walls painted in soft blues and whites and browns, old furniture that has come to mean something over the generations. The house itself had a lot of personality - Potters ( on his father’s side of the family ) had lived in it for generations, all bringing something new to the place, a new touch. Since the house has been inhabited by Euphemia and Fleamont, new life has been breathed into its walls. Brighter colors have crept into the usually bleak decor. They’ve brought warmth, beautiful patterns and personality to the house.

James’ room was located on the second floor of the house. It was big, with walls painted in red and black, and the decor being very much influenced by his favorite Quidditch teams. He also has a flying carpet hanging over his bed.

When friends stayed over, they usually stayed in the attic. It had been kindly decorated by his mother to be a sort of guest room ( mostly with James + friends in mind, lbr ). James and pals sitting on the roof at night, counting stars, is an aesthetic too, I would say.

James grew up playing Quidditch on the beach and constantly scaring his parents half to death when pushing himself a little too far. Flying a little too close to the cliffs. Dipping his toes in the water. Doing backflips.

Was sort of a lonely child, because their house was a little bit secluded, and there weren’t a lot of kids around. James mostly played with his dogs.

His parents were a little bit on the older side of things. Euphemia, his mother, was nearing forty two when he was born. Fleamont, his father, was forty nine. They had both wanted a child for so long, and had most definitively given up hope by the time James finally came along. Homeboy is always late.

His mother was incredibly empathetic, compassionate and kind. She was also very driven, and so so clever. 

She moved to England after finishing her education at the best wizarding school in India ---- where she scored top marks, and used all of her free time to delve into muggle sciences. Mathematics, chemistry and biology would soon become second nature to her. She moved to England in order to work at a magical research institute, developing potions ( she was also the kind of witch to believe that muggle science and magic shouldn’t necessarily cancel each other out ).

So Euphemia Potter ( née Vaidya ) became a potioneer, and a highly educated woman - before James’ birth, she had taken several muggle courses and wizard courses, and held a pHD in chemistry. During her free time, she was also a popular children’s book author, and published several books that were well loved throughout wizard Britain.

Fleamont Potter was also a potioneer, like his wife, —- which is how they met. Working together, bickering about what the best approach to different remedies and potions would be. They challenged each other, constantly making one another better. Though he was more of a businessman, than a scientist, and launched his own successful hair potion company ( Sleekeazy’s Hair Potions ), which he eventually sold for a vast profit. Both Euphemia and Fleamont passed away from complications due to dragon pox shortly after one another, when James was eighteen. They left him a fortune, and their house ( which James doesn’t have the heart to sell, at least not quite yet / probably not ever ).

HOGWARTS YEARS.

James was the kid that somehow got into trouble at the Hogwarts Express during his first year. Before even arriving at the school. And then his second. And then his third. And fourth. At that point, it was basically tradition. That’s how he started every year, and that would also set the tone for the rest of the term.

Also somehow managed to always drag other people into his bullshit? It’s a talent.

His electives at the school were as following: care of magical creatures, alchemy and muggle studies.

Very Gryffindor™, but would have done well in Hufflepuff too, I think.

During his second year, he made the Quidditch team, and became a chaser. After that point, Quidditch basically became his life. Wouldn’t shut up about it. And he also knew that he was good, so his head grew about ten sizes probably.

Had zero impulse control. Was the type to punch first, ask questions later. On that note, James got into quite a few brawls with other boys at the school. Most fights were rooted in 1) James getting annoyed by their pureblood elitism 2) someone insulting one of his friends 3) possibly trying to show off, just a bit.

Emotional maturity, while at Hogwarts? Sorry, who?

May or may not have some sort of record in most detentions in a year. Every year. Which.... he was kinda proud of.... 

Was active in a lot of clubs !! His personal favorite was the dueling club.

Managed to keep his grades up without much effort. Teachers were lowkey perplexed as to why someone as bright as James would CONSTANTLY cause problems / trouble. James was mostly in it for the thrill, the fun, and the risk. Taking unnecessary risks ( often putting himself in danger ) was kind of his thing? And he’s still doing that.

Was infamous for having a mood that changed like the weather, often quickly and without warning. Could be smiling one minute, and be incredibly testy the next. Was unfortunately also infamous for showing off, mostly through hexing people that he didn’t like. He was also quite inventive, and made up hexes with the sole purpose of embarrassing his enemies further.

Sometime during his fifth year at the school, he became an animagus, mostly to help Remus during the full moons. He also saw it as a challenge, and a bit of a test — to see how good they truly were, how far they could push themselves. ‘Could they do this, too? Where’s their limit?’

Also made Quidditch Captain !!!! Can’t believe this man achieved all his dreams at the age of 15....

Eventually mellowed out a bit during his sixth year, grew up a bit, became a little less full of himself. Could see things clearer. Though the pranks and the mischief in reality became more elaborate ( as he was growing older, and also bolder ), he found other ways to entertain himself that didn’t always involve hexes.

Was also slowly growing out of his teenage angst, so that definitively helped. Though the occasional punching without thinking still… occurred.

In his seventh year, he was made Head Boy. Was probably not the best for the job, but he showed up to everything he was supposed to, and didn’t make a total fool out of himself either. Also decided it would be best to be more lowkey, so he stopped getting caught. He still sneaked out of the school, but he was more careful about it, you feel?

POST HOGWARTS.

James enrolled in auror training the day of graduation. With the war weighing heavy on his shoulders, he didn’t see any other options, any other futures. Though he had idolized aurors since he first heard of them as a child, there were still other roads that he could have taken, if there hadn’t been the urgency of war pushing him towards action – doing something good. He could have pursued playing Quidditch professionally, could have worked with dragons, could have been a hit wizard. Mostly, really, any action packed job would have suited him ( and he had the grades to choose any profession he would have liked ). In the end, the war chose for him.

Joining the aurors just felt right. He passed extensive aptitude tests (which made him a little impatient tbh, he just wanted to get out there, do stuff) and soon started his first year of training.

Auror training has been lowkey hard on him, though? It’s so exhaustive, very serious, no room for errors. Luckily, James is about as stubborn as they come, and is determined to get through it. It’s just another challenge, right?

Now, he’s one of those mini aurors lowkey following the older aurors around. Probably being annoying while doing it.

Joining the Order and the aurors has definitively sobered James up a bit. Made him more responsible, a little less impulsive. But unfortunately not less reckless with his own life. Taking dumb risks, all the fucking time, is still his brand.

Has somehow managed to not kill someone himself yet. Sure, he has wounded and hurt a lot of Death Eaters. There is blood on his hands for sure. But it will also 4 sure change James once he Kills Someone With Intent, u feel.

PERSONALITY.

James ultimately has a heart made of gold, and is constantly trying to prove himself by showing off just how good he is at what he does. This adds up to a bit of a hero complex, tbh.

Is 1000000% his son’s father and I try to play into that... a lot... 

James usually has a stupid grin glued to his face ( the cocky kind, often a little crooked, as if he knows something you don’t ). He never stays serious for long, and is in the habit of playing serious things off as a dumb joke.

Known for being highly unpredictable and volatile, and can change from bright and smiling to tense and sour in the matter of minutes. He’s usually the former though.

That fun mix between Atlas, Icarus and Achilles, tbh !!

Radiates energy ! He’s such a lively person, like a human espresso. Kinda short compared to his pals, definitively a little bitter, high energy.

Was raised to be polite and pleasant, so he has good manners. 

Pays little regard to rules in general though, and usually does not respond well to authority ( but it kinda depends on who it is too? Like. He can semi-behave while at the auror’s office, and respects them… but is also the guy who plays pranks on his co workers constantly ). WILL also get himself into trouble by mouthing off if he thinks someone is in the wrong at work ( common situation is that someone else suggests that they hold off on going in on a death eater nest & James is not a fan ).

Constantly taking things as a challenge! Even if they definitively aren’t a challenge.

Kinda moody.

Definitively that guy that tries to light up a shitty situation with an even shittier joke.

Bad at following orders. Usually winging it. There are only really two people that he will properly listen to, we all know who they are.

Very loyal !!!! Would die for his pals. : ~) Would kill for them, too.

A sentimental bastard.

Smokes way too much. Knows it isn’t good for him, but got hooked back in school, when he thought it made him look cool.

Loves teasing people. Can be a bit mean spirited at times, but he usually doesn’t mean any harm by it.

Doesn’t know how to pick his battles.

Known for being way too impulsive for his own good. He acts first, thinks later.

Has a Queen playlist on repeat probably.

James is so bright, but also so so dumb. I hate him.

Can be really confrontational. Will deadass fight u.

[mistletouchunderthetree]

can u do one where richies a punk kid skater boy and eddie is kinda snob and one day they end up at the same party (as teens obviously) and richie tries to get eddie to try weed and eddie at first is hesitant bc his mom would kill him and eventually eddie gives in and they do cute romantic stuff while high and they sneak off and smooch and cute fluffy stuff like that

yes lets do it. ok so warning for drug use obviously but other than that it’s sfw

ok so it’s really hard for me to picture richie as a punk?? like imagine that fuckin nerd with a foot-tall mohawk and chains on his leather pants and it’s honestly laughable. the guy was 1000000% grunge. he traded his hawaiian shirts for flannels and wears band shirts and ripped skinny jeans and converse and has perpetual bedhead

(beverly is grunge too in high school but honestly is that even relevant to this idk)

so eddie could definitely go the preppy route. polos and khakis and combed hair. he’s a little stuffy lbr

somehow though. somehow since basically the beginning of high school they’ve both had crushes on each other

they’ve been friends throughout high school bc of stan

stan and eddie are friends bc they were both the only freshmen on student council 

eddie doesn’t understand how stan is friends with richie bc richie’s so cool? even though he’s in their advanced classes he just seems so.. effortlessly cool in a way eddie just does not understand

but stan and richie have been besties for forever, in the way eddie and bill have been besties for forever

ANYWAY soearly on in freshman year, eddie and stan decide to study together after school, and eddie’s at stan’s house chilling when.. richie fuckin tozier just walks right in the front door?? doesn’t even knock he just goddamn walks in like he owns the place

and eddie’s like wide eyed expecting stan’s mom to start smacking this dirty looking kid with a fuckin broom but instead she’s like “oh richie dear!!! how are you!!!”

and richie’s like “hey mrs uris, i’m doing great, my mom says hi”

and eddie’s like …..literally what in the fuck is happening rn

but richie hangs out and he’s cool and funny (and loud and maybe talks too much for “studying” but eddie finds himself not minding?)

he calls eddie ‘eds’ and eddie pretends to hate it but that’s only bc it gives him butterflies

so they don’t sit together at lunch or in their shared classes but richie always makes sure to say hi to eddie or ruffle his hair or call him eds and leave eddie blushing

(because honestly richie has a crush on eddie too)

but neither of them do anything about it. for literal years.

it’s junior year and eddie is sitting with bill at lunch talking about what they’re going to do this weekend

when suddenly richie tozier appears out of no where and plops in the seat next to eddie

“hey eds, you busy tonight?”

“um.. no??”

richie throws an arm over his shoulder “well now you are. you too, big bill. bev marsh’s aunt is going out of town, so we’re having a small get together, cool people only”

“don’t know why you’d invite us then,” bill says pleasantly, but the smile on his face says that he’s excited

“what!!! eds here is the coolest chap i know!!!!”

“don’t call me eds” (but he’s 100% blushing)

“so i’ll see u there right?”

eddie tries not to smile but he’s very bad at not smiling in front of richie, even though he looks like he hasn’t showered in 4 days (he asked richie about this once. richie actually showers daily, but he uses Too Much Product on purpose to make it look like he just rolled out of bed hungover. it’s his Aesthetic, he claimed. eddie stopped asking questions after that) and eddie knows if his mother knew he was friends with someone like richie tozier she would have a literal heart attack, eddie just likes him

so he agrees.

he shows up that night and he’s nervous af

“bill. we’re gonna get there and he’s not even going to talk to me the whole night. this is stupid. we should just go home”

“shut up eddie”

they walk in and surprisingly there’s not a lot of people there??

they’re all in beverly marsh’s living room, drinking out of red solo cups like high school cliches, and there’s only about ten people, including bev, richie, and stan

so they come in and richie jumps up, all excited

“eds!!! you came!!!!!!”

and beverly snorts into her cup but richie ignores her and takes bill and eddie to the kitchen to get drinks

richie goes straight to the punch that eddie knows is spiked and shakes his head right away

“no sorry, i don’t drink”

“i do” bill says, letting richie fill a cup for him. he heads back to the living room, sending eddie a wink over his shoulder

eddie stands awkwardly, watches as richie grabs another cup

“i’m serious, richie, i don’t drink”

“you really need to try loosening up eds” richie tells him, but grabs him a soda from the fridge anyway

they go back to the living room and richie pats the spot on the couch next to him, so eddie sits and sips his soda

everyone’s talking and laughing eddie feels a little out of place but richie keeps making sure to include him in the conversation which is… nice.

in fact, richie is all around nice, and he’s got his arm over eddie’s shoulders, and eddie’s trying really hard to convince himself this isn’t a date (he’d hate to get his hopes up only to see richie making out with beverly marsh at the end of the night)

after a bit they decide to put a movie on, and everyone starts to get settled in, but richie grabs eddie’s hand and pulls him up off the couch

“where are we going”

“i have to show you something”

eddie’s slightly concerned but idk ur crush doesn’t grab your hand and invite you somewhere alone every day so

richie takes him down the hallway, past the bathroom and into beverly’s room

he’s a little offput by how… comfortable??? richie seems in bev’s bedroom

“are you and bev…dating?”

richie looks up at him from where he’d been digging through a backpack in the corner of the room

eventually he laughs

“me and bev?? fuck no. she’s my best friend”

“i thought stan was your best friend”

“i thought only being allowed to have one best friend was an elementary school thing, looks like we’re both wrong”

eddie rolls his eyes but then they widen when he sees what richie pulled out of the bag

“oh my god richie is that marijuana??????”

richie wiggles his eyebrows and sits on the floor

“sit down eds, your legs are gonna get tired”

eddie sits but he’s staring freaking out

he knows how bad weed is

his mom told him it’s a gateway drug

who  knows, by this time next week richie could be addicted to heroin or crack

so he tells him that

richie laughs at him as he rolls the joint

“you really need to loosen up, eds. and stop listening to ur fuckin mom, isn’t she the one that gave you a fuckin fake inhaler?”

eddie pauses. “…..that’s besides the point”

richie’s still laughing as he takes the first hit

“cmon eds, just take one hit. one won’t kill you, i promise”

richie’s got some fucking great puppy dog eyes and eddie is doing everything he can to avoid looking at them

“eds seriously. you’re wound so fuckin tight, i promise you’ll feel so good afterward. you’re so tiny you’ll need two fuckin hits to be high af”

“two?? yOU SAID ONe”

richie ignores eddie’s screeching and takes a second hit

“i mean u don’t have to. i’m happy just hanging out with you, but i thought it’d be nice for you to not be so anxious for a bit” richie finally says, shrugging. eddie sighs. he knows, logically, that his mother is crazy, that she exaggerates and that weed probably isn’t that bad for you (clearly, richie smokes it every weekend and is still one of the smartest kids in school) but he’s still scared

“are you sure nothing bad will happen?”

“promise,” richie says, then his eyes light up and he holds up his pinky. “PINKY promise”

eddie reluctantly interlocks his pinky with richie, then takes the joint

“alright. what do i do.”

ten minutes and a hit (and a half (his first try didn’t go so well)) later, eddie is feelin it. he’s loose, so loose in fact that he tells richie “hey rich..richie.. rich. i am loosey goosey.”

he takes another hit. “richie? there’s cotton balls inside my head.”

richie can’t stop giggling. he is admittedly feelin it too.

eventually, they’re both laughing, and eddie topples over onto richie, and somehow they start play wrestling. it’s very mild, as neither of them have the arm strength to actually move the other. it mostly just leads to them curled up together, legs and arms tangled

their giggles fade off, and eddie opens his eyes (when did he close them??) and richie’s face is right there, inches from his. he’s suddenly aware of richie’s breath on his lips and he gasps. 

he’s not sure which one of them actually moved but suddenly their lips are pressed together

it’s lazy and slow and tender and when they pull back, richie whispers “whoa”

“yeah” eddie whispers back

they lay down on the floor of bev’s bedroom, still pretty tangled up together, and richie laces their fingers together

it’s quiet for a minute, and then eddie starts giggling at nothing, and then richie starts laughing because eddie is laughing, and then richie leans over and kisses eddie again, harder this time, more passionate

“i’ve wanted to kiss you for three years, fuck”

eddie whimpers, grabbing at richie’s back and tangling a hand in his stupid hair that he works way too hard on

“me too”

eddie’s a little too high to keep moving his lips against richie’s, feeling pretty tired and chilled out, so richie moves down and mouths at his neck, shuddering at the feeling of eddie’s hands slipping under his shirt

he finally stops, but doesn’t go far. richie lets his head fall in the crook of eddie’s neck, his leg thrown over eddie’s waist. their hands find each other again, fingers interlocking

“isn’t bev gonna want her bedroom eventually” eddie asks after a few minutes

richie giggles

“she knows we’re in here”

“what”

“i kind of….. planned this???”

“what”

“i mean.. i invited u here and i wanted to try and see if you’d get high with me.. the making out was an unplanned surprise but i don’t think bev would be all that shocked”

“bev knows we’re making out?”

eddie’s brain is just.. not working very well and he doesn’t understand

“no she’s in the living room”

“i know”

“i dont know what you’re asking me eddie”

“me either”

and then they’re giggling again 

beverly finds them a few hours later after everyone’s left, cuddled up and fast asleep on her bedroom floor. she puts a blanket over them and turns off the light and decides to sleep on the couch

22 vs. 4

genre: fluff x 1000000. character/s: im changkyun | reader. overview: explaining love to a four-year-old wasn’t all that difficult, especially when your boyfriend is a child at heart. word count: 2974.

“Babe?” she called out while slipping her shoes off as soon as she entered the room. Tiptoeing carefully over empty soda bottles and Xbox controllers, Y/N advanced to the first bedroom and opened the door. As usual during weekends, he was still dozing off and buried under thick, white comforters.

Quietly, she climbed up the mattress and slid under the covers to wake her sleepyhead of a boyfriend. “Changkyun,” Y/N said, sliding her arms around his waist before her hand reaches for his butt and pats it repeatedly. “Wake up.”

He stirred slightly, winding his arms around her and hoisting her up to lie on top of him. The boy in nothing but his checkered green boxers groaned against her ear. “Were we supposed to go somewhere today?” Changkyun mumbled groggily. With his eyes still closed, he blindly reached for his phone on the bedside drawer to check the time. “You’re here early.”

“Yeah, well—” she started, rolling off of him with a grunt and pausing only to yawn, “—my parents are arriving in a few hours to drop Miyeon off before heading to the airport.”

“Miyeon…?”

“My sister, yeah,” Y/N replied nonchalantly, hopping off the mattress before she could fall back asleep beside him. Grabbing his blankets in handfuls, she peeled it off of him to keep him from dozing off once more. “So if you could go get dressed so you could help me out, that would be great.”

The boy whined, shifting to lie on his stomach and bury his face on the pillow. “I was supposed to sleep in today!”

“Come on, I have two tests to study for. I need help looking after the kid.”

When he didn’t budge, Y/N frowned, letting his blanket pool around her feet. “Aren’t you going to come help me? I thought you loved me.”

At her statement, Changkyun flailed his arms and legs on the bed, as if throwing a tantrum, before pushing himself up to sit over his knees. If he ever had a weakness, it would be the pouting woman with her hands on her hips standing at the foot of his bed. “Alright, alright, but you have to get me breakfast,” he said, scratching the back of his head before dragging himself to the bathroom to wash up while grumbling, “The things she makes me do, really…”

Despite his complaints, however, he found himself at her own dorm room more than an hour later, blinking back at the child who had been staring at him the entire time Y/N was talking to her parents. Wet-haired and bloated with breakfast, Changkyun tried chatting her up by asking about the cartoon character on her backpack, but Miyeon refused all advances.

“She takes quite a while warming up to strangers,” her mother explained, noticing the sullen expression on Changkyun’s face. “Eventually she’ll open up to you.”

Rubbing his nape, the boy only nodded, standing up and bowing politely as Y/N’s parents bid them goodbye. As soon as the wooden door meets the frame when it closed, Changkyun immediately went to work, approaching the couch carefully while hiding something behind his back.

“So… do you like milk?”

He placed the pink carton on the table and pushed it across with his fingertips. All his advances so far had been rejected in cold blood. He swore he had never met a girl so difficult.

“Miyeon, he gave you a drink. What will we say…?” Y/N said, trying to coax her sister into saying something other than just huffing.

“Thank you,” the girl mumbled, almost inaudibly, before quickly snatching the milk. Changkyun attempted to help her put the straw in, but Miyeon had already turned her back on him to do it herself.

Defeated, the man sank further into the couch. Y/N reached out to squeeze his hand affectionately, but her sister wasn’t having any of it. Miyeon started to whine loudly at every physical contact her sister made with her boyfriend.

Opening her arms, Y/N called out for the little girl and made her sit on her lap comfortably. “Why don’t you like him? He came with me sometimes whenever I went home to visit, right? And he always gave you presents,” she said, as if trying to make Miyeon remember. The girl only responded by shaking her head, her attention still intently focused on the TV. Y/N sighed. “He’s going to look after you for a while because I have to study.”

“Can’t I sit with you while you work?” the four-year-old huffed, finally using her words, causing Changkyun to look up from where he was slouching.

“You’ll get bored. I can’t talk to you the whole time because I have to finish my papers, and you can’t watch cartoons on my computer because I’ll be using it,” she explained, her thumbs gently caressing the younger’s cheeks. “But he can bring you outside if you want. You can go to the store with him to buy more snacks, too.”

“But—”

“But what?” Y/N prodded.

Miyeon alternated glances between her sister and sulking man beside her. Realizing she had no other choice, “Okay, fine…” she huffed, her shoulders slumped.

Changkyun jumped at the sudden opportunity and wasted no time. He hopped off the couch and knelt on one knee, flourishing a hand towards the child. “Would you, the lovable and beautiful Princess Miyeon from the land of Dorm 242, bestow on me, a lowly peasant from the land of Dorm 098, the honor of carrying you to the 7-Eleven outside the campus?” Before he could finish talking, however, Miyeon was already on her way to the front door. “…or you know we could just walk. That’s what I was thinking,” he said, getting up to follow after the girl.

He wanted to help her put her shoes on, but she was already wearing them. “You tie your shoelaces nicely. That’s cool,” Changkyun said as he led her out of the dormitory. “Your sister always gets them loose, I don’t know how. So I have to tie them for her.”

The girl seemed to know her way out of the building as she led the way, leaving Changkyun to follow a few steps behind her. Since it was a weekend, most of the students were either catching up on sleep or enjoying their free time, so he didn’t expect to meet Minhyuk and Jooheon as soon as they rounded the corner.

“Where are you guys headed?” Changkyun asked, placing a gentle hand over Miyeon’s shoulder to keep her close and within his reach.

His two friends didn’t seem to be interested in him, however, because all their attention was focused on the little girl. “We were on our way to you, actually,” Jooheon explained. “We were planning to wake you up and have you join us for brunch.”

“Nah, I can’t, obviously,” the younger said, suddenly feeling betrayed when Miyeon runs into Minhyuk’s arms. “I’m on future brother-in-law duty.”

“She’s Y/N’s sister?” Minhyuk exclaimed, lifting the child up and laughing when the latter squeals in excitement. “No wonder you look so similar!”

“Yeah, we were on our way to the store to buy snacks,” Changkyun said, frowning. “And I’m trying to make her like me.”

Minhyuk’s eyes widened. To test the theory, he pretended to hand Miyeon over to Changkyun. “He’ll give you a piggyback ride to the store so you won’t get tired,” he proposed, but the child whined, squirming in his arms.

The outright rejection broke Changkyun’s heart further, but it only amused Jooheon more. “Ya, she’s a girl. All you have to do is tell her she’s pretty and she’ll stop being upset.”

Rolling his eyes, Changkyun stepped a good distance away from the two boys and the girl to give Y/N a call. “Yeah, this isn’t working out,” he greeted as soon as his girlfriend picked up.

The woman snorted, unamused. She only had her phone pressed in between her ear and shoulder, as if holding the phone properly would cost her a year of backlog. “That’s the spirit!” Y/N exclaimed in the most sarcastic tone she could muster. “Come on, you’re probably not even out of the campus yet.”

Changkyun looked from left to right. “How did you know? Are you following us?”

“Tch, it’s the blood connection, you airhead. I can feel her still near.”

Now, it was his turn to snort. “What, are you a psychic now?”

“Did you bring her to the fountain? The wishing well?” she asked, completely ignoring his mockery. She spun on her swivel chair and leaned back. “I swear to God if anything bad happens to my sister I’ll chop your toes and feed them to you.”

“She’s not even looking at me!” he whined, looking over his shoulder to where Jooheon had Miyeon sitting over his shoulders while they try to chase after Minhyuk, who was having the time of his life running in slow motion. “She’s with Jooheon and Minhyuk right now.”

“Oh, well, that’s cute. At least she’s not with Hyunwoo.”

“But how come she likes them? She’s literally just met them!” he groaned, stomping his foot in irritation.

“Hey, take your time,” Y/N cooed, using the calm tone she uses with her sister when the latter is about to throw a tantrum. “You’ll probably be the best of friends when you return.”

Huffing, Changkyun pouted. “Fine, we’ll be back in a couple more minutes.” And he ended the call as he walked back to where his friends were.

As Jooheon sets the girl down, he gave her a small wave. “We have to go and eat, but we might drop by Y/N’s dorm later so we can play, okay?”

The girl seemed reluctant to wave back, even as the two boys started to walk away. Turning to Changkyun, who held his hand out for her to hold, Miyeon wore a frown as she walked by his side, ignoring his hand completely. He sighed, letting his hand fall eventually.

When they pass by the gates of the campus, Changkyun had to present his student I.D. before being allowed to leave. “Look at this,” he said, wearing the lace over the girl’s head. “I look grumpy in my picture because my mom wanted to style my hair for me. She spat on her hand and used it as styling wax.” He swore he saw the slightest hint of a smile on Miyeon’s face as she looked at his photo, but he pretended not to notice.

Being the gentleman he is, he opened the heavy door of the convenience store for her. She skipped merrily to the aisles, browsing through shelves of various snacks and drinks. Whenever Miyeon wanted something far from her reach, Changkyun came to the rescue, lifting her up to let her choose by herself.

“What about chocolates or ice cream? Don’t you want any?” he asked, looking at the bags of chips and cookies in her arms.

She glanced at the freezers longingly, but in the end shook her head. “Mom says I should eat a full meal first, but I haven’t had lunch yet.”

“It’s okay, we can eat ice cream here, so Y/N wouldn’t see, and then quickly go home to eat lunch,” he offered, already picking up two chocolate popsicles from the freezer. When the girl still looked hesitant, “I promise I won’t tell your mom. I won’t even tell your sister!” Changkyun whispered, raising his right hand up to swear.

Convinced, Miyeon nodded. “Okay.”

“Okay,” Changkyun repeated, smiling. He took the snacks from her arms and brought them with him to the cashier. As soon as the cashier rings them up, he fished for the popsicles from the plastic bag and handed one to her, before gesturing towards the seats near the windows. “Let’s eat this here so Y/N won’t know.”

The two quietly ate the popsicles for a while, with Changkyun occasionally dabbing napkin over the child’s mouth where the cold treat gets smeared. He watched her in silence, smiling only when she catches him looking. “You know Y/N used to ignore me a lot, too,” he started, looking for a spot in his popsicle where the ice cream was melting before licking it up. “I had to work hard to get her attention, so now I’m doing the same for you.”

“You bought her ice cream too?” Miyeon asked, her voice now louder and clearer.

Changkyun nodded. “Of course, together with cookies and other snacks too.”

“You like her that much?”

"Yeah, well… no.” He scrunched his nose, suddenly deep in thought. “I love her a lot. You do, too, right?”

“So you… want her to be your sister too?”

His eyes widened in panic. “No! Not that kind of love. There are lots and lots of kinds.”

“Like what kinds?” she pried, almond eyes blinking up at him.

“Well, you love her as a sister, right? And your parents love you both as their daughters. Her friends love her as their friend. But our love — how do I say it — is like how your dad loves your mom, and your mom loves your dad. That kind of love, probably only a little less since we’re younger than your parents.”

Miyeon clasped a hand over her mouth as her face contorted in disgust. “You mean like the kissy kind?!”

When Changkyun nodded, she only let out a louder and longer “Ew!” to further express her disgust.

“Hey— when you get older and meet someone you really really like, you’ll be all kissy too!”

The girl furiously shook her head, giggling all the while. “Will not!”

He laughed at her response, gesturing towards her ignored ice cream that was already starting to melt. Her little feet couldn’t quite reach the floor yet, so they dangled to and fro while she ate. Their mindless banter about childish things continued until it was time to go. The moment she finished eating, Miyeon hopped off the stool and carried her own snacks on the way back to the campus. She was the one who presented Changkyun’s I.D. to the guards standing by the university gates. And, unlike on the way to the convenience store where she led the way and he followed, the two of them walked side by side, the awkward distance already having dissipated.

“So… you’re not mad at me anymore?” he slowly eased asking, tone light yet careful.

She nonchalantly shook her head.

“Really? So you’re going to let me kiss your sister now?”

“No!” Miyeon screeched, stopping in the middle of her tracks. “I’ll tell mom you said that.”

Changkyun crossed his arms. “Well— I’ll tell your mom you ate ice cream before lunch!”

“Hey, you said that was a secret!”

“But I’m telling if you’re telling!”

The little girl huffed. “Fine, I won’t tell.”

“Do we have a deal?” Changkyun asked, extending his hand out.

Two small hands grasped his before shaking. “Deal.”

“Okay,” he said, smiling, and nodded towards the hallway. “Let’s get back to the dorm.”

“Are your friends coming over to play, too?” she asked, climbing the stairs one step at a time diligently.

“Maybe,” Changkyun replied. He reached the top of the stairs faster, so he stayed behind and waited for her to catch up. “Are you sure you want to play with them? I’m more fun, you know.”

“Do you study with my sister a lot?” Miyeon prodded, ever curious. Unconsciously, she reached for his dangling hand and held onto it as they walked side by side. When Changkyun only hummed in response, she looked up at him and continued, “Like drawing pictures and coloring?”

The innocent inquiry had him smiling as he knocked on the door using the hand that was carrying all their snacks. “Yeah, only a little more complicated.”

Y/N opened the door with a huge grin on her face at the sight of her sister. She spread her arms out wide to welcome Miyeon before lifting her up and carrying her to her bedroom. The age gap might have been baffling — so much so that Y/N could seem like the child’s mother — but it only made them look all the more adorable in Changkyun’s eyes as he trailed behind them after closing the door.

He set the bag down on the couch and headed to the bedroom, where he could already overhear their conversation.

“He did?” Y/N exclaimed, using her fingers to comb through her sister’s messy fringes.

“Mmh! He looked funny in his I.D. picture too. I think the people from security were laughing at his face,” Miyeon said, giggling.

The two of them pretended to clasp a hand over their mouths when Changkyun entered the room. “Alright, what is it now?” he asked, feigning innocence as he sat behind Y/N on the mattress.

“Nothing!” the siblings said in unison, causing them to erupt in giggles once again.

“She didn’t give you a hard time, did she?” Y/N asked softly, leaning back against the boy’s chest.

“Nah, I’m used to girls giving me a hard time,” he replied playfully, which earned him a gentle nudge on the shoulder.

“Miyeon, can you show me what snacks you bought?” the woman asked again, now turning to her sister. But before the child could hop off the mattress, Y/N gave her left cheek a light tap with her forefinger. “Come give me a kiss first.”

Obediently, Miyeon scooted closer to her sister and pecked the older’s cheek once before pushing herself off the bed. Changkyun did the same and presented his own face. “Me too!” he blurted out, hopeful, but the girl had already run out of the room and was in the process of getting the bag of snacks, leaving Changkyun hanging.

As Y/N clutched her stomach in the middle of peals of laughter, Changkyun huffed. “Okay, we’ll work on that.”

Here’s How Your Favorite Canceled TV Shows Were Really Supposed To End

var h12precont = 'h12c_300x250_' + Math.floor(Math.random()*1000000); document.write('

There’s a danger each TV lover takes when letting a brand new present into their hearts, and that’s the probability that they are going to be canceled after only one season and even worse… canceled earlier than they’ve the chance to complete their respective tales, leaving meant finales for canceled reveals accumulating mud on a author’s laborious drive.

Shows are canceled for a myriad of causes – stars depart, rankings drop, and the like – and sadly, it means devoted viewers won’t ever get to learn the way these canceled TV reveals had been supposed to finish.

Followers of reveals lengthy gone should be annoyed a long time after this system was canceled. Happily, there are showrunners and inventive executives who had been equally disenchanted over the cancellations, so that they have determined to share with followers what would have occurred within the TV finales you’ll by no means see.

So with none additional ado, listed below are among the most notable TV reveals that didn’t get to stay as much as their full potential, and the way the meant finales for these canceled reveals would have introduced the reveals to their natural conclusions.

  Firefly

How It Ended: The present ended simply as River turned a full-fledged member of the Firefly crew, seemingly hinting on the additional continued adventures of Mal and his household within the years to return. The follow-up movie, Serenity, tried to tie up plenty of storylines by killing off some key characters and delving additional into among the Alliance’s very disastrous errors.

How They Wished It To Finish: The present’s second season would have included the pay off of several of the first season’s subplots. Adam Baldwin’s Jayne would lastly get to pilot his personal ship alongside the Firefly. Wash (RIP) and Zoe would have had a toddler, as proven in comics created after the present went off air. There would have additionally been some additional growth of Inara and Mal’s relationship, which might have been attention-grabbing to see unfold, as Inara would have confirmed that she is terminally ailing in Season 2.

How It Ended: Carnivale ended on some severely ominous notes, as Ben and Brother Justin had been each left fatally injured from their climactic confrontation. Sofie went to the darkish facet, and the present gave the impression to be hinting on the doable finish of the world nonetheless to return.

Completely satisfied Endings

“We needed to have them break up in an amicable manner so we may return to telling Dave’s courting tales in a manner that was extra critical, or Alex courting and what that may imply for the group in a manner that was extra even-handed. Would Penny have been a part of that? Perhaps. I believe we might have wanted to regroup as a result of Penny and Alex are so shut and that relationship is so essential they usually’ve recognized one another their complete lives… We’d have needed to deal with that. And perhaps we might have, I’m unsure.”

Felicity

How It Ended: In one of many weirdest TV twists ever, Felicity’s remaining episodes concerned the titular character going again in time one 12 months to attempt to change the long run, to the place she had chosen Noel over Ben. However when her actions outcome within the dying of a beloved one and irrevocable adjustments to a few of her pals’ lives, she decides to return to her earlier, unaltered current timeline.

How They Wished It To Finish: J.J. Abrams’ original ending for Felicity was all the time for her to finish up proud of Ben. However when the present was picked up for 5 extra episodes after that ending was filmed and accomplished, Abrams and co. concocted that unusual time journey plot to attempt to draw out 5 episodes’ price of extra rigidity and uncertainty.

Bored To Demise

How It Ended: This beloved stoner comedy ended its run on HBO in such a zany manner that’s all-too-fitting for the present: Jason Schwartzman’s character, Jonathan, realized he’d been sleeping along with his half-sister (Isla Fisher), neither of them understanding they had been in any manner associated.

How They Wished It To Finish: Whereas followers might by no means know definitively how the respective tales of Bored to Demise‘s characters had been going to finish, creator Jonathan Ames did reveal how the collection’ remaining revelation would have performed into its fourth season:

“I don’t need folks to suppose he wouldn’t inform her. He desires to inform her, however he was simply weakened in that second. And the concept that they’re siblings is so summary, as a result of he didn’t develop up together with her. It’s laborious for him to conceptualize. So he kisses her within the second, however I needed that final shot to reflect his confusion, so it’s spinning — virtually like the beginning of the season when he’s on the circle with the knives. It’s vertigo. However within the subsequent season, I used to be going to place her in a sanitarium. She was going to have a complete breakdown. And in case Isla Fisher wasn’t obtainable, I’d simply want that one shot of her on a bench or in Switzerland, for her incest treatment.”

out of hair pins ( ft. nyc! ) for one, happy fourth of july!!!! and secondly, this is my final post about nyc! below the cut contains the ENTIRE story of my trip, from start to finish, including pictures and my full review of Bandstand with Jessica Lea Patty as Julia! i want to thank everyone for putting up with my excited posts yesterday, and thank you for coming on the trip with me as i experience one of the best days of my life! i’m officially back now, and have done all the replies i missed from yesterday. <3 hope you enjoy my story.

Our day began at 2:30am, with my sister, my brother, and myself all running on little to no sleep. We had a 3 hour drive to New Jersey first ( in which we accidentally saw a little bit of Philadelphia when my sister took a wrong turn in Pennsylvania ) to pick up my brother’s girlfriend, then we stopped at Chick Fil A for breakfast first, and then headed to go to Newark, NJ to get on the train to go into NYC.

For one, Newark is fucking hell. All of the roads are confusing as shit and we couldn’t find our parking garage for the longest time. Then, after about 30 minutes of driving around, we finally managed to find our parking garage. We got out, and from there, tried to find the train station and got so frustrated, we rode in an Uber for the first time in my life. ( I didn’t die and the guy was pretty chill. )

So, we finally get to the station! Awesome! And we finally buy our tickets! We go to the track to get on the train, only to find out that we almost got on the wrong train ( THANK YOU TO THOSE WORKERS WHO HELPED US ). We did end up finally getting on the train and heading into the city.

We arrived at Penn Station, and once you get off the train and you go into Penn Station, you can’t see the city yet, you still have to go up an escalator. So, we take a bathroom break and FINALLY, we go up the escalator to go into the city. And yes, I shed a few years once I got outside.

The picture above was the first view I had of the city. God, it was GORGEOUS. I fell in love.

So, our first stop was to the Bernard B. Jacobs theatre where Bandstand is to pick up our tickets for the show! We walked towards that direction, practically in awe of the entire city. I don’t believe anything really happened on the way there, but we ended up making it to W 45th street where the theatre is located. I look over to my right and there it is, the first Broadway theatre I had saw. (I could’ve seen others but I wasn’t paying attention much on the walk there because I was so excited.) I walked inside, and waited in line because these two people who got upset that Laura Osnes wasn’t performing tonight (I understand, but understudies are great), and then the lady at the will call gave me my tickets which I basically never took out of my hands. Below, I got this lovely picture.

I went outside to meet my sister and we ran across the street to the Music Box theatre (it’s honestly directly across the street from the Jacobs theatre) where we took pictures with the Tony Award Winning Ben Platt(TM) poster where everyone in the rush line looked at me like I was crazy (you would act the same way.)

After THAT, we decided to head towards Central Park, in which this Buddhist man stopped my sister and I, forced a bracelet on our hands and to make a donation. (It was weird, I don’t know, but my brother and his girlfriend walked ahead so they didn’t get stopped.) Here are some pictures I took on the way there.

The wonderful Gershwin Theatre, home of Wicked.

Look, I couldn’t help myself.

Then we made it to Central Park, where I have little photos of Central Park, but take some cute selfies.

So, from there, we decided to go eat some pizza for lunch (it was like 12pm by this point in the day)! We ate at Mariella Pizza, which was delicious!!!! The pizza slices were so huge and really really good. Then, after that, we decided to start walking to the Drama Book Shop, which is when, as we passed 48th street, I saw it.

The Walter Kerr Theatre.

If you don’t know, that’s the theatre where Amélie was located during it’s Broadway run.

And the posters were still up.

So, naturally, I screamed and ran over towards it and proceeded to take sad pictures with the posters.

Look, a lengthy fucking review of how incredible the show was. Assholes.

I got so many weird looks, but my pain needed to be felt.

After that entire fiasco, we did walk all the way to the Drama Book Shop, in which I geeked out because the Dear Evan Hansen book and score were already on sale. No Amélie though. Below are the things I purchased.

I bought the Fun Home graphic novel by Alison Bechdel!

And I also bought the script, A Taste of Sunrise by Suzan Zeder. I saw an INCREDIBLE high school perform this script about being deaf at SETC this year. You will actually be able to watch the performance here really soon, but for now, there’s only BOAL, which I ALSO saw and it’s 1000000% worth the watch. The students wrote and directed this show, and it’s about inequality in the US.

So, while I was checking out, the guy who was checking me out was making small talk with me, and I mentioned that this was my first time in NYC and he was so happy???? He was like “oh my god that’s amazing!“ and I told him that this place was one of my first stops because I really wanted to see it and he was like “That’s amazing, really, please don’t be a stranger and I really hope you enjoy your day” and we left but like he was so nice and he probably said more but I can’t remember.

So, then we were walking back towards where we came from because we had reservations at McGees Pub, the one that How I Met Your Mother was based off. When we saw the Hamilton theatre. There’s even a pop up shop that super fucking expensive ($50 for a crop top). I would’ve taken more pictures but there were a shit ton of people sitting on the steps where the cool silhouettes of Hamilton and Eliza are.

So, after that, we kept walking and ended up accidentally finding Times Square? So, here are pictures of that!

We DID go into Theatre Circle!!! But I wasn’t able to buy anything or really get pictures because we were running short on time. But, I went to go ask the guy if there was any Amélie merch left and he was having a really passive agreessive argument with the woman in front of me. He was like ‘take a joke, lady, i was honestly just joking’ and then as she was walking out and complaining about him, he was like ‘you really need to figure out whats wrong with you, m’am!’ needless to say, there wasn’t any merch there.

So we are walking towards the Pub when I see this vendor with framed broadway shows on it. And RIGHT THERE IN THE CORNER, there’s Amélie. $8 later, I owned that sucker.

So we went to McGees Pub, and it was overpriced and not that great, but it’s more of a tourist attraction than anything. I heard the drinks were great from my siblings? They sold HIMYM t-shirts and such. Our reservation was at 3:30pm and we ended up staying until around 5 to rest and have a nice dinner. We started walking towards Times Square again, and it had rained while we were in there. I have decided that rainy NYC is the best thing in the world. It’s so beautiful.

There were a bunch of Broadway theatre’s giving out stuff, and the one that I saw was Chicago, so I took a picture with her!!!

So, while we were on our way to Bandstand around 6, this group of guys starting doing a street show. And they were super coordinated, hilarious, and really looked like they knew what they were doing. One of them flipped over a kid, like, it was awesome. No video though. :( I suck at being a tourist sometimes.

HEY LOOK THE MUSIC BOX THEATRE

So, a story before we get into Bandstand. We were standing in line about 15 minutes before the doors were going to open, and I’m talking to my sister (my brother and his girlfriend didn’t get tickets) about how excited I am, and this guy passes by us and shouts “Enjoy the show!!” and I shouted back that it was my first, and he stopped, turned around and came over to give me a high five and ask us how we like NYC and stuff. He told us about Bandstand and how he saw it and thought it was better than most of the musicals on Broadway right now and such. His name is John, if that matters. Anyway, he shook our hands and went off into the world to go see Waitress.

So, the doors open. And it’s time to go inside. I walk into the theatre and held back tears all until I sat in my seat and saw this view.

Our seats were PERFECT. And I was look at a Broadway stage in a Broadway theatre and I just busted into tears. My sister was laughing (not in a bad way, she was excited) and we sat there and waited for the show to start, basically.

ALRIGHT WHAT YOU GUYS ACTUALLY READ THIS POST FOR: THE BANDSTAND REVIEW. ( I will hopefully not spoil too much, but it is a review so caution ahead. ) I also didn’t listen to the cast album before going, so everything was new.

Holy fucking shit. I don’t even know where to begin?

For one, the opening number (Just Like It Was Before) and Donny Novitski are fucking incredible live. The choreography was amazing, and the liGHTING HOLY FUCKING SH I T THE LIGHTING OKAY I CANT EXPRESS HOW AMAZING THE LIGHTING FOR THIS SHOW IS.

I really enjoyed I Know A Guy, because it was a clever way to introduce all the main characters of the show.

The shit with Wayne (trombone player) and the gun (that whole scene) was terrifying because I understood what it was trying to mean and it made me really scared for his character.

THE FIRST SONG THEY ALL PLAY THE INSTRUMENTS WITH BLEW THE ROOF OFF OF THE HOUSE. IM A TRUMPET PLAYER AND HOLY SHIT THAT WAS GOOD..

Alright, this is definitely what you guys are waiting for: Jessica Lea Patty was honestly incredible. I have to admit that she was really shaky for the first couple of songs, especially those solos. But I’m telling you, the second she got to Love Will Come And Find Me Again, she was solid. Her vocals were so impressive and incredible and her acting is A+++++

OKAY SO GOING BACKWARDS BEFORE LOVE WILL COME AND FIND ME AGAIN

THERE’S A LIGHITNG CUE WHEN HE IS RIGHTING THE SONG

HES ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE STAGE

AND THERES THIS LIGHT CUE THAT IS LIKE UPSTAGE LEFT AND ITS WHITE

AND A BUNCH OF SOLDIERS COME OUT AND THEY ARE SLOUCHED OVER, PUSHING HIS PIANO INTO THE LIGHT WHILE HE WRITES THIS SONG

I WAS

SOBBING

SO BADLY

Now, let me note: up until this point in show, I was really enjoying the show. It was really good and incredible, but nothing had captured me yet. Like, how to I explain it. You know there’s always that one song when you decide, YES THIS IS FUCKING INCREDIBLE HOLY SHIT IM GONNA DIE.

That was Right This Way for me.

Not even just the song, everything leading up to it. The emotions were running so high and everything was so intense. The guy who is telling them about the preliminary and how they have to pay for it all says something that hits them really hard, and for a split second, the guys are in blue spots, a gunshot goes off, and it’s right back to how it was. LEGIT I STOPPED BREATHING FOR THAT ENTIRE MOMENT. It was such a intense moment I couldnt do it. Right before the drum starts, there a loud explosion sound and it goes from the whole stage being lit up to 6 blue spotlights that are on the veterans, and my heart stopped. Corey Cott is on the ground, and his emotion was so real and genuine, and the faces of the other guys in the band looked so tense with flashbacks that I started crying simply because of that quick change from person to soldier.

then the drums start.

and Corey starts singing, tears streaming down his face, his entire body shaking and you can just see it in his eyes how badly he is dreaming of it and the other guys are listening and they understand and im crying because it all feels so real and genuine and i was so invested that when my sister turned to me to say something, she didn’t because she saw my face.

and while the guys are all singing about this, Jessica Lea Patty is just watching and learning so much and you can see it in her eyes and she was so incredible.

and then they make a line and Jessica isn’t in the line yet, but they leave a spot for her, and then she steps up and then the spoTS ARE ON THEM AND ITS SO GORGEOUS AND COREY NAILED THAT LAST NOTE AND blackout.

I turned to my sister and was like, “Theres not way I’m not buying a t-shirt.” so during intermission, i went, bought a t-shirt, and put it on over my shirt in theatre (and then took the shirt underneath of it off like a pro).

alright oKAY ACT TWO

like i don’t have any specifics to say about the beginning bc i mean it was incredible and jessica was doing so so so good

then the scene where Julia finds out about Michael

Corey Cott was sobbing, like you heard him sob and the entire audience was silent and his voice was the only thing in the theatre and i cant okay

BTW I HAVENT SAID MUCH ABOUT THE GUYS BUT THEY WERE FUCKING GREAT AND PERFECT

Also Beth Leavel?????? YOU’RE AMAZING

Okay so before the show, they guy John told us to remember the song in front of the door

This is Life is that song. Where Julia and Donny are standing in front of her hotel room door in NYC and it’s so teNSE AND THERS SO MUCH LOVE AND THEY’RE NOSE TO NOSE

btw after she sings ‘shake on it’ he goes to shake her hand and pulls her in bC YES

so we get to the contest and they decide to sing Welcome Home the original way.

so they introduce them, the curtain rises, and it’s silent

the entire theatre just goes silent. no one moves and no one speaks

then Donny speeds up the song and they start singing it and they’re all sobbing and i’m sobbing and the crowd goes NUTS. i’m pretty sure we didn’t stop clapping for 2 minutes.

and like the entire ending was incredible and they were amazing and they did so good and they got a standing ovation and it was so incredible

ALRIGHT STAGE DOOR STUFF

so no, i didn’t get any pictures bc i really didn’t wanna make them stay out later than they need to

FOR ONE the family next to me was hilarious. their dad was a typical white dad and was making dad jokes and embarrassing his two daughters and i was living. i made friends and we all talked about how Ben Platt didn’t deserve shitty people on Twitter giving him a hard time

so the first person who came out was the JOEY PERO and he started at the other side which was chill. and then James Nathan Hopkins ( he played Jimmy ) came out!!! and he signed my playbill and told me that he loved my shirt ( I had my Bandstand shirt on ) and to have a happy fourth of the july. BY THE WAY HE RODE HIS BIKE AND PARKED IT AT THE STAGE DOOR AND WE GOT TO WATCH HIM LEAVE ON HIS BIKE. Then Joey Pero came over and I told him that I’m a trumpet player and he was like “REALLY ISN’T IT THE GREATEST INSTRUMENT” and I was like YEAH DUH and it was fucking awesome. Drew McVety ( Oliver ) also came out and he was super chill!! Kevyn Morrow also came out and signed!! THEN JESSICA LEA PATTY CAME OVER AND she didn’t have a sharpie so I tried to give her mind but it didn’t work :( and then she got a gold one, but she never signed my playbill. Thankfully, the family next to me helped me get her attention and she came back over to sign it.

PAUSING BC THATS WHEN BEN PLATT CAME OUT OF THE MUSIC BOX THEATRE AND I SAW HIM FROM ACROSS THE STREET AND HE DID HIS NOSE CRINKLE it was the best moment

but not better than Corey Cott coming out of those doors

I was like the second person he signed, and I automatically was like, “you were incredible this was the perfect first broadway show” and he looked up and his eyes were wide like, “this is your first show?” and i nodded and he was like, “i’m really glad you enjoyed it!” and i told him to have a happy fourth of july, and he seemed surprised and was like, “have a happy fourth!“

then i had to leave bc my siblings were tired but i would’ve stayed out there all night

BUT I ONLY REALLY HAVE ONE PICTURE OF NYC AT NIGHT BC MY PHONE WAS DYING SO HERE

And the final picture, of me in my Bandstand shirt, with my signed playbill. <3 That was a whirlwind.
