2023 Snowboarding Trip

Day 10: Driving, Sports and Italians

Hello!

Today began up a mountain.

I snuck out to explore the town that we'd stopped at. It was a small town, less than a kilometre around the town, and with no facilities or anything.

I wrote the blog sitting in a light snow, on a bench by a playpark. Shortly after finishing, I returned to the van to find people starting to get up.

We had an assortment of breakfasts, ranging from pain au chocolat heated in the oven, to Cereal to nothing but one banana.

My dad helped my younger brother, who was returning to Manchester by himself, to pack his bags and by noon, we left the little village of Crêt du Vlé. The road down the mountain was different, and much wider, as it passed by the new gondola lift from Orelle to the 3 valley ski resort.

The waterfalls, the heavy snow and the mountains looked gorgeous as we left.

We had some issues refuelling, but after successfully adding some gas to the tank we kept on going, and passed through the Fréjus Road Tunnel which cost nearly €70 for a one way drive, was 13km long and passes over the border between France and Italy. Once over we started to struggle with the language, none of us can understand Italian. We went through a series of bridges and tunnels, before breaking onto the open road, with rolling fields, the occasional castle, and lots of rivers.

We stopped at a Lidl a little while after 13:00, to buy some water and other essentials for the van (which was being left in Italy when we returned home).

We got back on the road and in under 10km we parked up at a service station, in the bus station zone. We watched the Scotland v France rugby game (after having watched the Italy game the day before in France), then my brothers watched the Carabao Cup final (with both of their teams playing each other). After the football finished, we got back on the road and arrived at a car park in Bergamo at 21:45. We ate dinner (curry, loving prepared by dad) then my siblings (all three of them) started trying to find the Fury v Paul boxing match. It started an hour after they expected, the channel was a pain to find and by the end of the match it was past midnight.

My sister started making herself less ingratiated with the rest of the family by problem spotting and arguing about loading her washing into the suitcase.

My brothers then made up their bed, whilst Dad went to the toilet and mum finished up the washing up.

It's currently 00:30, and we have to be at the airport for my Manchester brother at 8:30 am. My sister is not a morning person. I don't think any of us are particularly.

Wish us luck!

Today's snap of the day is:

Dad getting read to photo the van in the snow.

“Does everyone call it Crusty Butt?”

“Back in the 80s my dad and his hunting friends called it Chested Beaut.”

Not sure which name is better, but either way, Crested Butte is pretty great. Highlights: cocktails at the dogwood and dreaming about moving and opening up a business hosting writing retreats in this amazing little town. Also snowboarding.

SINCE I'VE BEEN GONE . . .

I took an extended vacation from "journalling" and documenting my thoughts regarding Jikook and fandom shenanigans because I wanted to take my hiatus when the fandom seas had been calmed and all was right with the world, justice had been served. I left on this high note...I naively believed that with Jikook traveling together and moreover enlisting together, all this drama regarding who JK prefers or loves more would would cease and desist. Oh to be young an naive!

For the life of me I cannot understand this fandom!!! If they can't NOW accept that Jikook are hands down, without a doubt, no questions asked the closest members in BTS and man KPOP history than there's no hope fore them!

Because I just can't wrap my mind around fandom logic regarding Jikook . . .

Jungkook 2023

Goes live a kagillion times to gush about JM,

straight up become a JM reaction channel,

begs JM consistently to hang with him, do lives with him, box with

gets giddy whenever JM replied in the chat

brings up JM every chance he gets

Shows us how familiar his boxing coach is with JM

Goes live whenever JM leaves the country

Dog scratches JM on the arm because they were together

Willingly cosigns JMs travel show plan even though a lot of it occured during his busy promotion season

Fandom: Jikook are dead and were never that close!

JM 2023

Plans this whole travel show with JK (no one else mind you not Rm, not Tae. . .)

Travels to different cities with JK, while JK's promoting his album so busy and probably tired, to film travel show

Talks about how he (in 2023) would spend hoooours drinking and discussing music with JK

Shows up with a massive scratch mark on his arm clearly from JK's dog

Discusses how poor Yoongi became a third wheel because they have a tendency to go into their own world and get "deep" when together

Fandom: 2023 shows us Jikook were never close

Jikook 2023

In an unprecedented move, Enlist together through the buddy system-a system that mandates they have to spend their entire service together...they can't even take leave separately. A choice they both made and wanted to make of their own free will.

Fandom: This proves they aren't together because in the military they can't be gay and have sex.

Tae

Hangs out with JK with his wooga squad

Leaves JK alone on a MTN

Post about spending time with JK

Post pics of him with JK

Ask JK to go live with him and proceeds to have a silent awkward as hell live where they barely talk to each other

Fandom: OMG they are soulmates HYBE is finally letting them be their authentic selves

JK

Goes to a movie with Tae and his squad

Goes Snowboarding with Tae's wooga squad but they ditch him

Goes live looking lonely and sad as hell all the time

Goes live for white day looking sad

Seems to be going through a crisis...even JM says he needs to get out more

Talks about JM a lot in his lives

Goes to Hawaii and goes skydiving with Tae

Fandom: OMG OMG JK must really love Tae to get on a plane and fly nearly 10hrs to see him. No one can deny their bond now

***Should someone remind them that JM already did that for JK's bday (which Tae wasn't present for) and they minimized it. Or oooh oooh should someone also remind them that JK gifted JM with a whole ass all expense paid birthday trip to his dream destination, went broke doing it, and then made a whole vlog about that trip that only showed JM's face set to the tune of a romantic love song?? Something that they also claimed was not a big deal! ***

WHY DID I COME BACK TO THIS!!!

JK Golden relax room Spotify

3 November 2023

So, JK is sooooo tired. With all the makeup you can't hide the puffy tired eyes.

He confirms the snowboard trip with Tae and his friends back in December 22, I think (the one we were doubting), telling us how he enjoyed the snowboarding and how he wanted to do more, but they were worn out and left back home, while he stayed on at the resort listening to Ditto multiple times. Perhaps missing someone.

Notice how he says "V and HIS friends". Just saying.

He really enjoyed the food (especially the fried chicken, lol).

He shared his recipe for ramyeon porridge.

He's so cute.

Sorry, he can't escape that, no matter how hard he tries to, lol.

And the JM is nice and bold again.

We also have this from Spotify:

JK Golden approved photo booth poses.

And this:

[taekooktimeline]

November 3, 2023 (released) -

Jk is back on Spotify! I love seeing Tae and Jk on Spotify. Their interviews and tasks always make me smile and laugh, so it’s great to see Jk back after Golden released! He’s asked what he listens to the most right now, and responds that it’s New Jeans’ song “Ditto.” He then confirms what we heard in December 2022, that he went skiing with “Taehyungie Hyung” and friends.

Jk had so much fun snowboarding that he thought they’d do it again, but everyone else fell asleep at the resort, which is when “Ditto” played. The song is clearly nostalgic and brings back fond memories for Jk.

As a memory refresher: Hobi, Tae and Jk were seen skiing on December 14-15, 2022.

And on December 16, 2022, Hyungsik (actor and singer + Tae’s friend and fellow Wooga member), Tae and Jk were spotted at the ski resort.

Recap - https://www.tumblr.com/taekooktimeline2022/705112172837076992/december-14-15-2022

What’s interesting is “Ditto” released on December 19, 2022, which means Tae, Jk and friends were at the resort for a few days past when they were spotted.

At the end of his interview, Spotify gifts Jungkook various things, like adorable customized boxing gloves, a candle, hoodie, bathrobe and a shirt. He asks the crew if they made the shirt, and the staff mentions that when Tae was on Spotify, he had wanted a shirt so they made one.

Jk teases Tae about the shirt -

I've only seen clips but...

Jimin saying he has not snowboarded in 7 years. Then says he went with JK when the only time JK went was during hiatus when they admitted they did not see each other. Then he says he was mistaken it was with JK's friends??

Then you have him wanting to have a love song as the theme song for the show?

Jimin also seems throws himself on Junkook a lot when he has no shirt on. So touchy.

I want to pass them off as jokes but it honestly feels like Jimin is consciously feeding shippers.

I do not want to get you any hate on your page so don't post this if you feel I am too negative or you dont want angry traffic. I just want to know if I am I missing something or reading this wrong? Did you see it as silly banter with no shipping implication? I know Jimin has a habit of flirting with JK but at this age and this bizarre. I dunno anymore.

Just to be clear: I have seen 20 minutes one end and 30 minutes the other. 40 mins in the middle was school run.

I read it as banter that is a hangover from a time when perhaps they were more engaged in fanservice. (That's fanservice in the context of k-pop where everyone does it and it's not a criticism.)

Jimin saying he has not snowboarded in 7 years. Then says he went with JK when the only time JK went was during hiatus when they admitted they did not see each other. Then he says he was mistaken it was with JK's friends??

Ok so I think we need to just assume Jimin was mistaken? Like in the same breath he realises he was mistaken so let's just take that as it is. It does us no favours to discredit him when he's literally there saying he was wrong.

Because what you'd have to believe for this to be conscious shipper feeding is that Jimin made that trip up and I actually don't think anything is made up. I think certain details are amplified, certain angles are shown, certain pictures emerge. Like, for example, Yoongi being with Jimin either in person - there's evidence to suggest in person - or on the phone on Billboard Hot 100 Dynamite night but it evolving into "I was with Jungkook."

It's twisty but I don't think it's point blank lying.

The problem is the shippers who aren't activating their critical thinking and running with the idea that Jimin was hanging out with JK's friends without him and that means they're married.

Assuming this trip was one event, 7 years prior to 2023 was 2016. Didn't JK first start hanging out with his 97 Liners in 2016? So when he says JKs friends... yeah sure, in retrospect they're his close friends but possibly less of an established relationship in 2016, no?

Taekook moment: I feel like hanging out with Tae's best friends of 7 years when you're in your mid 20s and they're in their 30s is a super different vibe to a bunch of idols hanging out in their youth but I am biased and can't be trusted. haha. And less said about it being snowboarding the better really. 🤐

I didn't see the bit about a love song. Sounds like a joke though.

Jimin also seems throws himself on Junkook a lot when he has no shirt on. So touchy.

I did see this bit. I think that's just Jimin and the shirtlessness is just secondary. I don't think it's particular to JK. Whether or not JK is that happy to be touched depends on the moment, it seems.

The whole show has an awkward vibe of being a hangover from people they no longer are. It was my opinion after NYC, it was my opinion for Jeju and it remains my opinion now.

[dearweirdme]

I'm actually kind of shocked there are people who think there have only been a couple of big moments this year, because for me solo era/2023 has been full of big (meaningful) moments. Apart from a handful of exceptions, my reasons for believing list is now mostly moments from the last year. It's been surprising for me in one way because I thought the group going their separate ways would mean Taekook going completely under the radar. But instead there's been more moments that have convinced me they're together this year than I can remember in any other year since I became a Taekooker in 2016...and it's not even close. Which is also NOT surprising when I think about it from the perspective that of course there were going to be lots of moments because for the first time in a decade these two get to live a somewhat normal life for a bit, and not be together for work but because they just want to be. It really made the contrast between Taekook and all other pairings in the group clearer than ever. The Paradise hotel suite, the bowling/snowboarding/musical outings, the live where we know for sure JK was at Tae's place and all the lives since that made even my skeptical ass go "hmmmMMMM!", all of the times the receipts added up to them spending their time together right before trips and immediately after returning, the Dream premiere, showing up late to Yoongi's concert together and leaving together, the matching sweetheart shirts while Tae was in Seoul and Jungkook was in LA (they're insane for this one), Tae working on Layover at Jungkook's house, Tae supporting JK at Inkigayo but for some reason being the ONLY member that was snuck into and out of the building for this purpose, Tae dropping two bombs on us with the info that Jungkook told him to listen to "Oh No Oh Yes" and that he always sings "To Find You" for him, learning that Jungkook really has been brought into Tae's social circle with all of the support he has gotten from Wooga and Tae's high school friends this year, the sweet picture of Tae and Jungkook at the Golden release party looking so blissfully happy together actually had me shaking. This is even leaving a few other things out that I can think of right now, and I know there are some that I'm probably forgetting. Personally, it's been an embarrassment of riches for my Taekook heart.

Hi anon!

Oh same same! I think, while overall we’ve seen Tae and Jk together less (obviously, since members are solo right now), the moments we did get were actually quite big. For the people who look for quantity, it’s probably not been a good year, but those who go for quality.. 🥰

HEY so i have deep dived into brocedes (going on... 3 days now?) and the one thing im rly struggling to find is an accurate brocedes timeline with links to everything (and i mean EVERYTHING- their promo vids, them eating cereal tgt, lewis on nicos website at 18 etc). i've scrolled through ur acc (its been so helpful!!) but some of the links no longer work i can't pinpoint on certain dates (greek trip?? what year was that?? when did they race each other in italy?) so i js thought id ask if you could help me figure that out lol also i am happy to read any in depth essays of brocedes and their progression as childhood bsfs, to teammates, to rivals, to strangers, that you have on the backburner bc i genuinely am a fan of all things brocedes atp (this is me shamelessly asking for a master post like the one u did w the post 2016 timeline- yes im happy to wait esp since there are sm new things to comment on (SPAIN 2023??? OMG!!)) ANYWAY altogether thanks for everything youve done for me as a brocedes newbie 🫶

hi! I'm gonna try to find some primers and stuff for you. the thing about brocedes is a lot of it you have to find out for yourself, and that's part of the fun. you won't find one masterpost with every single link unfortunately, but my blog has a pretty good aggregate of most of them.

there's a lot of useful links and basic rundown here, one of the major primers

the Greece story timeline is vague cause they've both mentioned it multiple times, and it's a major staple in their canon. here it says 14.

here is the post 2016 interactions primer post

Nico and Lewis talking about snowboarding at 17, so they were friends after they were teammates, and here's them partying as young adults (bc Nico and Vivian got together at 18)

the iconic kellog's picture! and here's how kelloggs lore followed them

here's an essay that's freaking pivotal!!!

here's additional lore I've collected, such as them living in the same building, their childhood shenanigans.

there's a lot of individual lewis blogs where you can find out more about his karting years, and for nicology I personally go to @fzxy40 for more nico insights.

this is when they raced each other in Italy so you can trawl through karting records to find it

And now, in 2023, we have Lewis bringing up Nico unprompted talking about how karting with him was some of the best times, and Lewis and Nico both stuttering fidgeting as Nico interviewed him for Spain 2023

as for promo! my pinned tweet is a great compilation of their skits, you can look up more on YouTube like the cringe merc commercials they did together.

there's a lot of lore on my blog you can check the archive for, and I'd be happy to help you otherwise if you're looking for anything specific!

what does hongjoong think of how jungkook and chaeri are with eachother now? like what does he think of their current relationship and their past one?

Hii! I felt it might be nice to add a little piece of Chaejoongs' relationship to answer this question. Thank you very much for the ask and I sincerely hope you will appreciate!

I would like to take this opportunity to remind once again that I am always late with answers and requests but slowly they will all be posted! I am always the happiest girl in the world when my inbox is full

Chaeri as the 8th and youngest member of BTS.

CHAERI'S MASTERLIST

❒ genre: Angst to fluff

❒ words: 1.7k+

❒ summary: In which Hongjoong cannot help but notice the way Jungkook looks at Chaeri

❒ warnings: Minor argument; Insecure!Hongjoong; Stuck in the traffic

❒ notes: Most of what is written reflects the way Joong sees what is happening around him, so it is not to be taken for granted that it completely reflects reality but rather is the way he perceives it. I think he is one of the healthiest people that could have happened to Chaeri, it was so hard to make him seem upset because to me he is the sweetest, softest guy in the world

Late January, 2023

Jungkook sighed as he handed Hongjoong a small package of pills. "Lately, she's been pretty stubborn about taking her painkillers," he said "Still, I'd like you to carry the pack with you in case she needs some during the day. You'll be gone for a while and she still gets pain when she stress her leg"

Hongjoong had been in the former BTS dormitory's living room for fifteen minutes already. The room was enormous, much bigger than the one he shared with the group. Even with the large space and few pieces of furniture, the curtains filtering in only some of the sun’s rays created a cozy atmosphere.

It was Eden's wedding day — Ateez producer and friend to all of them — and he was there to pick up his girlfriend and go to the celebration together.

Though the band members were on tour, it was a perfect occasion for them to return to Seoul and take a break.

What made that trip especially important for Hongjoong was the fact that it was the second time he could see Chaeri after her snowboard accident from earlier in the year. As her boyfriend, he felt immense guilt for not being able to care for her during her recovery; their tour had kept him away from Korea and prevented him from being there with her.

Meanwhile, Jungkook took it upon himself to help her during that hard time.

Hongjoong had been very thankful for this, knowing that she was not alone dealing with that moment. 

But as it was equally 15 minutes in which he was listening to the BTS' member talk about how he might act during the course of the day to Chaeri's needs, he couldn't help but think about how Jungkook was taking that role far too much personally.

Before he got there and started the conversation with him, he could've said that he had put aside thoughts about Chaeri's past quite confidently. It had been months since he had paid any attention to it. The relationship between them was going well and that was all that mattered, yet the thought kept nagging at him noticing the way he talked about Chaeri with such concern and care.

He drew his mind back to those few conversations they had about it to try to pick up any tiny detail that might deny the growing feeling that the man, whose identity he never wanted to know, was actually the one standing in front of him at that moment.

As Chaeri entered the room, Hongjoong couldn't help but notice the way Jungkook looked at her. It was a mix of tenderness and longing, something he had seen before, but ignored. Now, it was harder to overlook.

She smiled and the room suddenly seemed brighter. Even his "silly" thoughts stopped for a moment, all he could feel was the warmth emanating from being near Chaeri, filling every inch of him.

"Hey" he said, out of breath. She was beautiful.

Her long hair was curled at the ends, half held up by a black ribbon matching the long dress that covered the brace at her leg. He noticed how tightly she was holding onto her crutches and realized how much those tools were becoming a part of her daily routine.

'Hey' she replied, her face lighting up with joy at the sight of him. With a determined stride and unwavering spirit, she moved forward despite her injury to be by his side.

He hugged her tightly, feeling her body against his and the sweet fragrance of her perfume pervade his nose. It was then that he noticed the way Jungkook's eyes were on them, the way his face turned distant and unreadable. It was a moment because he quickly looked away to an undefined point of the room, hands in his pockets "Have fun and give my congratulations to Eden and his wife"

'He is definitely the m-' Jungkook left and Hongjoong's thoughts about him were quickly replaced with the unexpected feel of Chaeri's lips on his own. "I missed you, Joong", she said softly, and there was no room for anything else in his mind but that very instant.

.・゜゜・　　・゜゜・．

Hongjoong had planned to bring up his doubts to Chaeri several times during the ceremony, but every time he tried to, someone would interrupt them.

First, it was alternately one of the members of his group, evidently thrilled by having Chaeri back among them after months apart. Then, it was the photographer who needed to take a few more shots of them with the newlyweds. And then came the time for his group to sing for the couple, then the time for them to sit at the table to have dinner with other guests, then the time for people to come and make sure that Chaeri had recovered from the accident, and then and then and then here it was that the ceremony was over and he had not been able to spend a moment alone with his girlfriend.

Hongjoong was feeling frustrated.

He attempted so many times to have that conversation with her yet equally missed so many opportunities to do that, he even questioned the idea of asking. Perhaps he should have let it go. Maybe it was not the right time. But when the car ride home, planned to take a short 1/2 hour turned into a very long ride that after two and a half hours still kept them completely stopped in traffic, he could not hold back his thoughts.

"It's Jungkook, isn't it?"

The honking of car horns and the shouting of frustrated people from car to car were loud enough to nearly drown out Hongjoong's voice. 

It was just the two of them in the big van that would've take Chaeri home and him straight to the airport to leave Korea again.

The driver, from the back seats, was barely visible through the dark divider panel that separated him from them, and to look at him, it seemed as if there were no indication he was interested in hearing their conversation. Or rather, it was really difficult to hear anything through the thick panel that provided them with privacy, so Hongjoong felt safe enough to talk.

Chaeri looked at him, her expression clouded with confusion. "What are you talking about?"

She had pulled out of her hair the bow that used to keep them tied throughout the day several minutes earlier, trying hard to make that trip as less uncomfortable as possible. Forced into that position for hours, her ankle was beginning to ache and to make her tense, but it was no one's fault. Such traffic could not have been expected.

"You know what I'm talking about. It's Jungkook, isn't it? The one you told me about, the one you were denied to be with"

Chaeri's expression remained neutral, but her eyes flickered with something he couldn't quite read. "What about him?" she asked, her voice devoid of any emotion.

"So it's him." Hongjoong leaned back in his seat and sighed, feeling a weight drop on his chest. Oh, how he'd hoped that his were only paranoid thoughts.

"I didn't know." he remarked quite sourly on the words that came out of his mouth.

"I was going to tell you, but you said it didn't matter and you didn't want to know who it was. Did you forget?" Chaeri's tone was sharp, her frustration evident.

"Well, 'cause I never thought he was someone so close to you."

Chaeri's eyes narrowed, and Hongjoong could see the anger boiling beneath the surface. "What does it matter if he's close to me or not? - It seems to me that I'm with you now, isn't it? I've never brought your old relationships up to you, why does this have to be a reason for us to fight?"

"You are the one who's getting mad"

"No, I'm not"

Hongjoong could see the way her jaw was tense. He knew he had touched a nerve, but he couldn't just let it go.

"Have you noticed how he looks at you? I-I may have been blind not to notice it before, but I'm sure you know well how he pays attention to ... every detail of yours."

"Jungkook and I, as with Namjoon, Taehyung, Jimin and all the others, are family. We all pay attention to each other's details."

"He still loves you."

"Stop it." Her voice was low and filled with warning.

"Fine." He said, defeated. "But can you blame me? Can you really blame me for worrying after what you told me about your past relationship? Can you blame me if it makes me anxious that you are living with the person whom you once told me you would probably never love anyone else for again?"

"You don't have to worry about him. He's just a friend, a family member, and that's all he'll ever be."

Chaeri's bold gaze hid a vulnerability that Hongjoong knew all too well. Her eyes darted away when he caught her looking and she turned the moment he met her eye, as if it were a reflex to hide her discomfort from him. Or was he just getting paranoid? He wanted to believe her and for a moment, he did. But then doubt crept in and he couldn't help but wonder if it was all just an act, a way of protecting herself from the truth that she had refused to face before.

Or perhaps talking about the past that had hurt her only reopened a wound that she did not feel like treating again.

Lord, he was so confused. His mind couldn't finish one thought that was already beginning to process the next one.

He bit his lip and fidgeted with the hem of his shirt before finally finding the courage to speak.

Do you still love him? - Instead, the words that came out of his mouth were quite different.

"Is it clear between you two?" 

Chaeri met his gaze head-on and gave a curt nod.

Hongjoong fell into silence once again as he looked out the window of the car. The world outside was dark and foreboding, casting shadows over everything in its wake. After a few moments, he turned towards her

Are you choosing me because you can't have him or because you really want me? - But once again his mind did not connect with his words

"So ... Is it clear between us too?"

"Yes," she said softly. "It's very clear." 

Sometimes she hated herself for being so hotheaded, she knew that the ways she acted sometimes might hurt people's feelings, and that was the last thing she wanted to do to Hongjoong "I'm sorry that I've been so ... rude. I just don't want the past to affect what we have now"

"I just want to make sure that we're both on the same page"

Chaeri looked warmly at Joong and brushed her thumb along the back of his hand "We are," she said, her voice a soft whisper. Despite the darkness that shrouded them, the corner of her lips tugged up into a small smile. "You calm my mind Joong, and that's the most comforting feeling someone can give me. You are the only one who can. Please, just look forward to our future, ok? Don't ever talk about the past again"

Hongjoong felt his tense shoulders soften and his chest expand with a deep breath. He thought about all of the moments that brought them to that place, and decided he wanted more for them - more time to share, more memories to make together. He leaned over and kissed Chaeri's forehead, feeling her warmth and love in every molecule around them.

He cupped her face in his hands "I promise to always look forward to our future together,"

She was about to say something when she felt his lips meet her in a soft kiss.

A wave of emotion flooded through him as he deepened the kiss, wanting to leave her with something that she would remember even after they went their separate ways later that night. He ran his fingers along the back of her neck, "I want you to think of me tonight."

Hongjoong glanced up at the partition barrier separating them from the driver, thankful for its presence.

He wanted to make the remaining time pleasant for both of them, but he could not ask himself if this was really what he wanted at that moment, or was it his attempt to distract Chaeri from her ex-boyfriend and erase these thoughts from her mind?

2023 Snowboarding Trip

Day 9: Mountain Roads

Hello!

Today started with a litany of different tactics to get me to join team Friendship on their last day of Snowboarding. I didn't. I feel bruised and tired, so I refused them.

They went out around 10, and were back by noon as a couple of members had taken some serious falls in the boardpark.

I, during this time, had showered and been down to the local shop, and was at base making sandwiches for the group when they all got back.

My mother was battling with her euro card as it kept on shutting itself down.

After lunch my sister switched her skis for a snowboard again and went out with my dad and least bruised brother, whilst my oldest little brother showered and took some ibuprofen.

Mother and I had been preparing the base for travel, and we're excited to sit down and watch some rugby. That's when the data issue hit. We had no data, my mother only had 2.5 GB left and when my dad had bought more data he'd bought an unlimited pack for his number then realised he couldn't share that out between us.

So we were watching the rugby using his phone. He wanted to get back out there again. So we switched to my mother's data and she ran out just as the first half ended.

Despite our protests, and the fact he'd been there 3 weeks, dad would not come back in, he wanted one more run. He's like a dog playing fetch. He just never wants it to end.

So I, using the free, slower data that we get access to after using the standard fare, watched the rest of the game on my phone.

After the match finished, dad was back and want gone as soon as possible.

So we headed down to Plagne Centrale to return my sister's rental skis. We then set off down the twisty mountain roads, which are always slightly concerning in a large van. Fortunately they were made to accommodate large buses of people coming in and out of the ski resorts.

We continued once down, round in a semi-circle, as the roads south through the mountains were closed. We stopped in Moutiers to try and reactivate the card, but failed, so we bought some pizza and then ate it in the town centre.

We headed further round to Orelles, a small town I'd seen just off the motorway and en route to our final destination of Milan. We got to the turn off of the motorway and were feeling pretty fine. Then the twisty mountain paths started. Dad said it reminded him of Nepal, we had to do a three point turn to get round one of the corners and it was very dark.

Still, we finally made it and immediately went to bed, whilst Dad, Mum and my bruised up brother watched the second rugby match (that we'd all missed) in the van.

Today's snap of the day is:

So I just saw one of the tweets confirm this is from the snowboarding trip in January . And that even here… he looks tired

I'm sorry what tweets confirmed this and by who? These pictures far more appear to be from their trip in December of 2023 not January as she didn't appear to be with him in January for that trip.

WHO: Beck & @elliot-newman WHERE: The Mirage’s speakeasy WHEN: December 31, 2023

Beck Hartman thrived in a party, whether in a room of people he'd just met or known all his life, he was always surrounded by friends. Every time he found himself in the speakeasy, he always wondered why he didn't come here more. It was one of the coolest places in Merrock, on his most humble and ever-growing list. Coming off the dance floor with Shosh, he lost her to another friend as he spotted one himself. With a wave to catch Elliot's attention, he signed, "2024, here we come! You're going to learn to surf, go on an awesome snowboarding trip, what else?"

Mountainside Slide (+18)

This is part 10/12 of December Event 2023 for @cyborg-franky

MarcoXAceXOC(Ray)

NSFW content is very mild and at the end, no sex occurs.

Also low-key implying this is the same day as Shaking the Snow Globe.

Warnings: Near death experience via avalanche, failed suggested sex in a hot spring, failed plan for beach sex, implied future sex, horny Ace (it's the near death experience that got him really going), and implied authority kink for Ray and Marco (different sides of the experience).

Word Count: 2,276

They could be literally anywhere else. In fact, with very little effort, they could be on a sunny beach along with damn near everyone else. Ray looked out across the sea to the nearby sister island.

Yep.

Still stunningly beautiful beaches.

But no, he’s bundled up in a thick winter coat trudging up the mountain side to ski of all things.

He loves Ace, really he does, but Ace has some really weird ideas sometimes. Marco, the bastard, went along with it happily. Probably enjoying the change in scenery and amused to see the usual hot-head have to wear more than cargo shorts. Yes, even Ace had to wear something more protective than his beloved shorts. Notably not as much as Ray or even Marco, but still. It was an unusual sight, he supposed.

Still, if even the literal fire logia had to cover up to avoid frostbite, what chance did Ray have to be reasonably warm? Thick scarf tucked into an equally hardy jacket, burying half his face in the fabric in an attempt to not lose his nose. He never considered himself overly attached to any particular body part before but certainly didn’t fancy losing any of them to wind chill. Ray clenched his fists around his snowboard through the beefiest gloves he’d ever worn.

Even with all the thick layers, he was still a bit cold.

The minute they were somewhere Ray could strip himself free of his cotton/wool/composite fabric prison, he was sticking whatever was the most frigid right down Ace’s pants. The bastard deserved it for putting them through this. Fingers, toes, whatever it took to hear the startled yelp that would make up for it all. A little bit, at least.

“We’re almost at the top!” Ace declared, breath a thick fog as he beamed behind him. Marco’s posture screaming amusement like he knew something Ray didn’t. Perhaps Ray will trip him into a snowbank at some point. Wipe off the smug grin he knew Marco was wearing beneath that scarf.

Although… the view was pretty great up here, Ray admitted to himself. Casting a glance over the mountainside. Pristine white peaks breaching the clouds above miles and miles of slopped snow. Trees and cabins dotted the landscape here and there. The air so cool and clear it almost made his heart stop from the sheer scale of it all. Different but not unlike gazing out at miles of open water. Danger and beauty woven into the same landscape.

Would Ray ever stay here? Hell no.

But perhaps Ace had a point in going up here at least once. It was a hell of a rare view after all. Especially compared to beaches, which were on nearly every island they docked at. Less people too, so Ray didn’t need to worry about a nice day out being interrupted by scores of people gawking at Ace and Marco—understandably so, but the high pitched coos really cut into his naps. Watching Ace flail once he realized he was being hit on also amusing but not what he came to the beach for in the first place.

None of that up here though.

It was… nice.

Still fucking cold as shit, but nice.

“Ah. Looks like we’ve made it, yoi.” Marco puffed, squinting out across the slope they’d chosen to ski down. It was a very long way down but pretty damn clear. Perfect to race down, in fact. Marco glanced at Ray, eyes squinted so the blue was all he could see, amusement as clear as the challenge in them. “Want to see if we can leave Ace in the snow?” Marco asked loud enough Ace heard. His head jerking as he looked back at Marco in affront.

“Oi! As if you’d beat me!” Ace laughed, slamming down his board and securing his boots in place. Ray grinned, mindful to not get a mouthful of fabric, as he did the same.

“Oh, I don’t know, Ace. I think we could beat you easily.” Ray commented breezily, watching Marco follow their lead and ready himself.

They lined up at the top of the slope. Ace eagerly hunkered down to launch himself as quickly as possible while Marco stood with a relaxed posture.

“Ready?” Ace snarled, eyes narrowed into thin slits of ice. “GO!”

Ace was, naturally, the first. A burst of fire shooting out his ass. Because of course Ace decided that’s the best place to give himself a head start.

Ray chortled, jerking forward with his body low, arms out behind him as fabric gave way to feathers. Marco just behind him awash with blue fire. The two of them having the same idea as they used their respective wings to boost their speed. The wind curling around them in frigid bursts.

In short order, they blew past Ace who yelped in shock.

“Bye, Ace! See you at the bottom!” Ray called back teasingly, squinting his eyes against the wind. Snow grinding beneath his board in a smooth, unending roll as he cut across the landscape. Marco close by, not trying particularly hard to get ahead of Ray.

All that mattered was beating Ace, after all.

A wave of heat exploded behind them and Ace shot out ahead like a bulled of eye-searingly orange fabric. Manic laughter erupting in his wake as he quickly left them behind with spurts of fire dancing along his back. The warmth was nice while it lasted, but something else quickly took Ray’s attention from the race.

The sound of something heavy crumpling. Folding in on itself with a crash. Rolling and grinding behind them.

Startled, Ray looked back and nearly fell, his heart suddenly thundering in his chest.

A wave of snow was curling behind them like a wave, threatening to overtake them.

“MARCO!” Ray yelped, Marco reacting instantly with a startled glance at Ray then following where his eyes were. Marco swore, bending his knees significantly as he swerved towards Ray.

“Hold onto me!” Ray reached out and wrapped his arm around Marco’s waist. Blue fire curled around him as Marco used his greater wingspan to shoot them forward. “ACE! YOU DUMBASS! KEEP GOING!” Marco screamed out over the growing roar of snow collapsing behind them.

Ace looked back, smug grin plastered on his face before it crumbled into panic.

“SHIT!”

But despite Marco’s best attempt, the wall of snow only grew faster as it gained momentum and weight.

With a soft curse Ray could barely hear, Marco kicked his feet and erupted into fire. Disappearing from Ray’s grasp before a large talon grasped his jacket. Lifting him up as Marco shot forward like a bullet, snapping up Ace and taking to the skies. Flying above the avalanche as the snow pelted Ray’s board, narrowly ripping off his boots.

The avalanche crashed down the mountainside swiftly, exploding into the flattened valley below where, thankfully, no one was waiting.

Ray smacked Ace as Marco flew them to safety.

“Only you…” Ray huffed, pushing down the instinct to squirm in Marco’s grasp. His instincts telling him to escape the clutches of a predator furiously. Not that it would do him any good. And besides, as dangerous as Marco was, Ray would let Marco pin him in place with his talons any day of the week.

“That’s enough excitement for one day, yoi~” Marco cooed at them, bending his neck to playfully glare at Ace who was doing a remarkable job looking like a scolded puppy.

Marco banked sharply and headed back up the mountain. With practiced ease, Marco took them to a cabin fairly high up. Specifically, a hot springs station.

Now this, Ray could get behind.

Carefully, Marco set them down and helped with removing their snowboards, his own abandoned to the wall of snow that had threatened to bury them.

They were received with some surprise from the host, an older woman with large brown wings and teal hair.

“Oh my! I wasn’t expecting to see anyone today, where’d ya’ll boys come from?” She asked before gesturing to the doorway to her left. “The bathing area is through there, would you like a room to be prepped for you? We’re due for another storm shortly, I don’t think you’ll want to go down the mountain after soaking.”

“Sure. But won’t the hot spring get snowed in while we’re in it?” Marco asked. She smiled wryly.

“Up this high we have a more… sauna approach to personal hot springs. Usually, the windows are left open to air them out but with the storm coming, I was about to close them. There will still be little windows closer to the ground for air flow, though. Feel free to open them as you wish. Separate rooms or just one?” She asked, opening her guest book and presenting it to them.

“We’re good with sharing, ma’am.” Ray commented. She nodded and grabbed a key from the wall behind her.

“Token matches the door. Dinner will be delivered to your room in a few hours. If you need to call your crew, I have a snail up here, Tikki.” She laughed, looking to the rather nice pillow where a deep blue snail slept.

“Maybe later. Oyaji isn’t expecting us back tonight but he’d like to know we’re safe anyway.” Marco accepted. She nodded and waved them to the opposite side.

“Go ahead and grab supplies and settle into your rooms. I’ll set out the futons while you three soak.”

Ray gratefully snagged a robe for himself and let Marco lead the way to their room. The hallway was wide, doors lining them in even spaces, implying smaller rooms that grew larger as they went further in. Marco glancing at the signs outside the doors until he found one with a white snowflake and thundercloud on it. The room was nice, a Kotatsu set up already and a fireplace with wood stacked along the wall. A large space near the fireplace clearly meant for their futons.

They eagerly removed their snow laced clothes and set the on the hangers to dry before throwing on their robes. Ray taking the opportunity to press his cold hands to Ace’s bare thigh, Marco and himself laughing when Ace yelped.

“That’s for the avalanche.” Ray commented.

The floors were chilly under their feet but bearably so as they followed signage to the bathing area. It felt wonderful to get cleaned up before entering the hot springs. The room was built around the natural hot spring with wide windows overlooking the landscape. Clearly having been closed recently judging by the thin line of melting snow under them. The air nippy but mostly warm, thankfully, as the expected snowstorm rolled in.

Ray sank into the water with a pleased sigh, the last of the chill finally leaving his bones as Ace settled in next to him, Marco taking the other side.

“This is nice… was this part of the plan?” Marco asked Ace with a lazy grin. Ace shook his head.

“Nah! I wanted to snowboard to the bottom and then head back to the village for dinner before taking the last ferry ride back to Summer Isle. Maybe walk the beach a bit. But this is pretty nice too…” Ace glanced at Ray with a smirk. “We could make it even better though~?” Ace purred meaningfully, grabbing Ray’s thigh.

“Ace…” Ray locked eyes with the sign by the door and sighed. “Not in the hot spring. They’ve literally got a sign up about that.” Ace pouted looking back at the door.

There was, in fact, several signs up. A warning about the recommended time they were allowed to stay in the water for safety reasons. Do’s and don’ts. And there, on the bottom, was a warning to not indulge in adult activities. On threat of public embarrassment, losing their housing for the night, and being charged for cleaning the hot spring of any unwanted fluids.

Oh, and a warning that sound carries very well from the hot spring so they’re definitely going to be heard.

“We’re pirates…” Ace mumbled and Marco smacked the back of his head, reaching past Ray to do so.

“Absolutely not. We’ve got a room for a reason.”

Ace perked up at that and Ray rolled his eyes.

“Did your plan include sex on the beach too?” Ray scoffed before catching Ace’s guilty expression. “Absolutely not. I’m not getting sand anywhere near there. Marco, we should kick him to the corner and make him watch.”

Marco chuckled softly, curling his arm around Ray’s shoulders.

“He’d whine all night.” Marco warned into Ray’s damp hair. “But he does look cute when he whines…” Marco considered.

“Ack! N-No, c’mon! Guys, please don’t! I-It wasn’t a serious plan, I swear!” Ace protested, wrapping his arms around Ray’s side to plead into his neck with sweet kisses.

“This is literally exactly why you’re in trouble, Ace.” Ray sighed, pointing back to the sign. Trying not to smile when Ace let out a soft whine, burying his face into Ray’s neck in defeat.

Ray felt Marco shift his arm and saw his hand grip Ace’s hair gently. Tugging to get his attention.

“Behave and we’ll see.” Marco informed Ace, his voice making Ray shudder, feeling the edge of authority rake over his spine. Ace blinked with purposefully wide, innocent eyes, settling down at Ray’s side.

Ray sighed, resigning himself to a very long night with both Ace and Marco riled up.

Almost freezing on the way up the mountain, nearly getting crushed in an avalanche, and now mediating Ace’s libido and Marco’s authority kink…

Well, along with the view, he supposed the trip was worth it.

Whumpril 2023 Masterpost

Link & Sheik

Link Makes Bad Decisions

Four Becomes One

Malice Infection AU

Shades of the Calamity

Runaway AU

Retrieved Communication Logs

F-1: Link? You’re near Lanayru-5 still, right?

L-1: Currently orbiting while the solar cells recharge, why?”

F-1: We’ve picked up a distress call from near its moon, and you’re the closest ship with the capacity to help.

-

Recovered communication logs between Central engineer Zelda Hyrule with her F-1 Class experimental fighter ship, and an L-1 Class scout ship (pilot unknown).

Sorely Needing Rest

Link just needed a horse, not an argument.

A Meeting in the Desert

Link gets left in the Haunted Wasteland to die.

-

His pale skin was already far past red, already peeling under the heat of the sun, and if he stayed out much longer he’d be willing to hand over the Master Sword to Ganondorf himself in exchange for a drink of water.

Blood and Stitches

Carelessly stepping into the next room, he found himself tripping over his own feet as his ears caught the whirl of one of the many traps found throughout the old mineshafts.

-

Link gets injured in the Cave of Flames and Ezlo helps him deal with it.

Minds and Malice

As it grew closer, Link realised what it was — a Hylian. He’d never seen a living one before, although he had a good idea of what they were like based on his resemblance to them. He knew he wasn’t one though— the word the monsters he’d met had used to describe meant something more like ‘harbinger’ or ‘herald’ from what he could understand.

Painless Potion

“Link, please just listen to me. I went to talk to that couple who runs the potion shop at the bazaar. They said you’re coming in near-daily for heart potions. They assumed you were just picking them up for the Academy, but I checked our stores and they’re the same as they’ve always been. Why do you need those potions Link?”

Under His Skin

Link is fine. The blood staining the front of his tunic might look bad, but the potion he took was able to heal the wound over once he was able to get to it, leaving only a thick scar across his chest. He was still cursing himself internally for making the mistake of forgetting to keep track of his injuries while using the painkilling potion.

Hope in Your Heart

Steeling herself, she stepped forward, calling upon her inherited magic, which took form in her hand as a bright orb of light.

“Vaati. Why have you come here?”

They turned to face her directly and smiled, the sides of their mouth stretching too far as they did so.

“Don’t worry Princess, I have no interest in you anymore.”

Evening Ambush

Link wasn’t panicking, not at all. He was just frozen in fear under the Yiga assassin who had found him while he was sleeping, and had pinned him down with their knee on his chest, waking him up with the feeling of something heavy constricting his breath, with the sharp blade of their sickle to his throat.

Snowpeak Snowboarding

Link is bad at snowboarding.

Dreams of Past Lives

The place he’s in now is… odd. He stands on a thin layer of water in a realm that seems to be nothing more than a bright summers day, light shining down through the sparse white clouds without a sun in sight.

The Malice of a Stranger

As they got closer he realised they were moving oddly, injured perhaps? It was when they were nearing the end of the bridge, close enough for him to seen more clearly, that he saw familiar blond hair falling out from under their hood.

Below the Clouds

“Master Link, I would advise returning to the sky before your illness becomes any worse.”

Death in the Castle

She let out a sigh of relief when they reached the castle infirmary. She knew it wouldn’t be able to help much, but it made her feel better to know that Link was somewhere safe.

One Hundred Years Later

“I… I don’t think this is something you can help with. Ever since I woke up in the Shrine of Resurrection things have just been… different for me.”

Shades of Family

Oh. He remembered her now, fragments of memory forcing their way into the front of his mind. He remembers playing with her as a child, how she begged him not to leave after he drew the sword, how he’d brought her gifts from the different regions he travelled to alongside the princess.

Almost Giving Up

“What if I… what if I feel like I don’t want to exist anymore Fi?”

Unexpected Imprisonment

Link knew it was his fault. It had to be. Sheik could have escaped capture if only Link hadn’t been there, slowing him down.

Alone With A Shadow

He might not know how long it had been, his cell without any windows to see the passing of time through, but the dark stone of the walls that surrounded him gave him a clue — he was trapped in Ganondorf’s castle, that floating fortress that had terrified him so much when he first stepped back out of the Temple of Time with the Master Sword on his back.

No Longer Alone

He could feel his mind breaking apart bit by bit as time went on. He found himself forgetting names, forgetting faces. He screamed sometimes, as futile as it was, as if someone could come and save him.

Scars

Link has a body covered in scars.

Things Lost in the Desert

The ruins around him were clearly much older than the ruins of the Calamity, and it seemed as if a great city had once stood against the highlands but was destroyed or simply abandoned at some point in the distant past.

when the fires of battle still smoulder

“So,” said Link, awkwardly rubbing the back of his head where his hair poured out from under his helm, “do you need something to change into?”

Father and Son?

“Link, what have you done?!”

Thoughts of a Hero

Sometimes he wished he could just run away from it all… except he could, he realised with a start. He could just leave. Could they stop him?

A Hero in the Wild

He’d been wandering Hyrule for a few months now, mostly avoiding more populated areas. As far as the villages he passed through occasionally were concerned, he was just a travelling hunter, who had some talent with a blade.

A Captured Hero

He scowled up at the men holding him captive, his arms tied behind his back and held there by another one of the small group. He recognised their armour if not their faces — Hylian soldiers.

Sleeping in Malice

Each time he slept, it would come back, shouting at him and cursing at the other presence in his mind. He knew that one’s name now at least — Ganon, the one the monsters knew only as the King.

Hero’s Downfall

Link thought his plan had been flawed from the start. If Zelda hadn’t shown up after his capture, now months in the past, she never would. Ganondorf seemed to have realised the same thing, choosing to force Link into working for him rather than holding out for Zelda to reveal herself in a rescue attempt.

Returning the Favour

She’d done the same for him once, over a hundred years ago, so he supposed it was just returning the favour.

[ Idiosyncrasies | Stu Innes Full Part 2023 ]

The title “Idiosyncrasies” to me represents all the weird little things we each do when filming, that readjustment of your pants as you drop, that final board line you pat on the takeoff, or that “right here” that you say as you drop to try convince yourself that this try is „the one“ and in some way different to the last 50 tries. I love these weird and wonderful routines and quirks we all have - that only increase in the stressful and often scary situations we put ourselves in when filming.

I’ve always admired the older videos where riders had jump and rail shots in their part so this 2022/23 season I set out wanting to make a part that showcased both these sides to snowboarding that I love and have put a lot of effort into. We didn’t have a heap of snow in Austria this season or any real budget for this project but I’m happy to show you this video that hopefully captures the fun of going out and venturing outside the park and trying to film with your friends.

The powder shots in this video were filmed entirely in the wonderful Zillertal Valley in Austria which I now call home. The rail shots were squeezed in during a CTF team trip to the US and one last April dash to an Austrian classic spot.

I want to thank everyone involved!

Editing: Jacco Bos Not only did Jacco make this edit, he did it off my semi corrupted first draft project to allow me the creative input I wanted.

All my sponsors for keeping me stocked up with the best gear: Slash Snowboards Bro! Clothing Check The Feed The Snowboard Asylum Union Bindings Melon Optics Adidas Terrex

Everyone I filmed with: We didn’t always have the same crew but every spot we went to had great vibes of everyone supporting each other and loving snowboarding. Even build days were super fun, just being out there in the beautiful mountains chatting nonsense with you friends is amazing.
