Bolt Action event over! It was an Axis v. Allies event. My first game was against Italians, second game: German Grenadiers, and last game: German paratroopers.

My embattled Desert Rats won all three with only the last game being a close one.

My Crusader tank, as it is now well known for, took out snipers only. One AT round into a church belltower, another into the side of a building, and lastly a shell into a second floor window.

My opponents were fun to play, (save one that forfeited second turn…) and it was a long but good day.

Next event: Horus Heresy narrative campaign.

Unboxing: Tobruk starter set

I made a promise to a friend and fellow wargamer at the end of last year and that was in the New Year I would buy something for Flames of War and give it a try. Flames of War is a 15mm scale World War II wargame played at divisional level. I had largely put my promise to the back of my mind as Bolt Action and Barons War took over my thoughts. I happened to be browsing a copy of Wargames Illustrated and saw an advert for limited edition D-day divisions, the British 7th Armoured Division caught my eye and reminded me of my promise.

Long story short I ordered a number of things for Flames of War the first to arrive was the Tobruk starter set which I ordered through Amazon and it arrived better packaged than Lion Rampant did.

The boxset contains the following:

6x crusader tanks

3x Grant tanks

3x M4 Sherman tanks

4x M14/41 tanks

5x Semovente assault gund

2x 88mm guns

1x complete A5 rulebook

1x quick start guide

12x unit cards

1x 8 million bayonets dice

20x dice

The box was in perfect condition and literally said on the cover what it contains. British and Italian forces for recreating the siege of Tobruk. I have heard it said that that some of the tanks were not at Tobruk. I am a lover of historical accuracy with things but this time I did not care as it is a nice set with some beautiful models and some of my favourite tanks (the Grants, I love how ugly they look)

on opening the box I was confronted with so many sprues and resin parts making up the two forces. The models look fairly easy to assemble but the sheer number of sprues is intimidating. This is the point when normally I would take photos of each sprue and give some of the history behind the tank or artillery. I am trying to shorten my articles so I will not this time, I shall do that in a different entry.

Under the sprues was an A3 soft back edition of the Flames of war rulebook, a leaflet detailing the core rules allowing players to get started rather quickly. The set includes full instruction manuals on how to build the models. There were cards with all the statlines for the different units in the box. The set also includes 20 coloured dice and one 8 million bayonets dice.

That's all for now

Until next time,

Happy hobbying

Hani & Wonwoo Moments That Cause Fans To Speculate

Fox of BTS | BTS 8th Member

The MAMA Awards Glances:

During a major award show like MAMA, cameras caught Hani smiling and subtly glancing toward Wonwoo while Seventeen performed. Fans noticed that her gaze lingered on him more than once, sparking speculation about whether there was something more going on between them. BTS was seated near Seventeen, and Hani’s fond looks didn’t go unnoticed by eagle-eyed fans.

Matching Accessories:

During separate promotions, both Hani and Wonwoo were seen wearing what appeared to be matching bracelets. While it’s possible this was a coincidence, fans couldn’t help but speculate that the matching accessories were a sign of their closeness. Social media went wild with side-by-side comparisons of their jewelry, with fans asking if the bracelets were “couple items.”

Coordinated Social Media Posts:

Fans have pointed out that Hani and Wonwoo sometimes post on social media at suspiciously similar times. Whether it’s photos from the same location or cryptic captions that seem to mirror each other, fans have theorized that the two could be spending time together behind the scenes. One particular post where Hani uploaded a sunset photo followed by Wonwoo posting a similar one not long after had fans buzzing with excitement.

The “Accidental” Livestream Moment:

During a casual BTS livestream, Hani was talking to fans when she mentioned Seventeen’s recent comeback. When a fan commented about Wonwoo, Hani’s reaction was subtle but noticeable. Her smile grew wider, and she quickly moved on to the next question. Fans caught this and wondered whether her reaction indicated something more between them.

Behind-the-Scenes Chemistry:

During a behind-the-scenes video of a variety show collaboration between BTS and Seventeen, Hani and Wonwoo were seen playfully interacting. At one point, Wonwoo helped Hani adjust her mic pack, and the brief but intimate moment had fans speculating about the nature of their relationship. The soft smiles and comfortable energy between them were undeniable.

Subtle Teasing from Seungkwan and Hoshi:

During one of Seungkwan and Hoshi’s usual playful interactions with Hani, fans picked up on their teasing comments and speculate that they were about Wonwoo. In a TikTok video where the trio was doing a dance challenge, Hoshi jokingly asked Hani, “Are you going to send this to him?” Fans were quick to link the comment to Wonwoo, especially after Seungkwan smirked and added, “Yeah, he’s going to love this.”

Wonwoo’s Reaction to Hani’s Stage Performances:

Fans have noted that Wonwoo often reacts to Hani’s performances in a way that seems more than just friendly support. During one award show, when BTS performed, cameras cut to Seventeen’s table, and Wonwoo was seen watching intently, with a soft smile. The speculation grew when fans noticed he clapped more enthusiastically during Hani’s solo moments.

“Accidentally” Calling Him Out:

During a BTS fan meeting, a fan asked Hani to describe her ideal type. While she gave a generic answer, saying she liked someone thoughtful and kind, she added a small detail about enjoying someone who reads a lot, something fans quickly linked to Wonwoo, who is known for his love of books. The fans screamed in excitement, and Hani’s slightly flustered reaction didn’t help dispel the rumors.

Group Hangouts with Seventeen:

Fans noticed that Hani has been spotted hanging out with Seventeen members outside of official schedules. Whether it’s during group dinners, variety show tapings, or casual hangouts with the Seventeen members, fans have speculated that Wonwoo’s presence at these events is more than coincidental. Seungkwan and Hoshi, being the obvious intermediaries, seem to make the most of teasing Hani and Wonwoo during these get-togethers.

Subtle Body Language:

Fans have analyzed numerous interactions between Hani and Wonwoo, noting that their body language suggests a deeper connection. Whether it’s the way Wonwoo stands a little closer to her than necessary during group photos or how they always seem to be positioned near each other in public settings, fans believe the small, almost imperceptible moments point to something more.

“Accidental” Instagram Story:

Hani once posted an Instagram story of her enjoying a cup of coffee at a cafe. A few minutes later, Wonwoo posted a similar story from what looked like the same cafe, sparking rumors that they were together at the time. Though they didn’t appear in each other’s posts, fans couldn’t help but notice the matching table settings and atmosphere, leading many to believe that they were enjoying a quiet date.

Their Similar Playlist Choices:

During separate interviews, both Hani and Wonwoo mentioned having similar favorite songs. On one occasion, Hani shared a playlist for fans, which included songs that Wonwoo had also recommended during a recent Vlive. Fans were quick to notice the overlap, and the shared taste in music became another piece of “evidence” that the two were connected beyond friendship.

Special Shoutout at Seventeen’s Concert:

During one of Seventeen’s concerts, Hani was spotted in the audience cheering them on. What made fans even more excited was when Seungkwan and Hoshi playfully mentioned a “special friend” in the crowd, making sure to look in Hani’s direction. Although they didn’t directly mention her name, fans quickly assumed they were talking about her, especially with Wonwoo giving a shy smile on stage after the remark.

The Suspicious Gift Exchange:

During one of BTS’s Vlive sessions, Hani was seen opening a gift that she said was from a “friend.” She didn’t reveal who it was from, but fans quickly linked it to Wonwoo after noticing that the bracelet inside matched one he had been seen wearing during Seventeen’s promotions. The exchange of gifts and their matching jewelry further fueled dating rumors.

Caught in the Same Area Abroad:

During BTS and Seventeen’s overlapping international schedules, fans spotted both groups vacationing in the same city at the same time. While there was no official confirmation that Hani and Wonwoo were together, fans speculated that they might have coordinated their free time to spend it together, especially after a fan account posted about seeing them in the same neighborhood in Paris.

Subtle Mentions of Each Other:

In separate interviews, both Hani and Wonwoo have made subtle mentions of qualities they admire in others that seem to describe each other. Wonwoo once mentioned admiring someone who is “calm but passionate,” which fans thought perfectly described Hani. Meanwhile, Hani once said she likes people who “balance intellect and humor,” which many believe points to Wonwoo’s personality.

Wonwoo’s Reaction to Hani’s Solo Performance:

During a BTS concert where Hani had a solo stage, fans noticed that Wonwoo, who was in the audience with Seventeen, had an unusually focused expression while she performed. Seventeen members were all cheering on BTS, but Wonwoo’s intense concentration on Hani’s performance stood out. Fans captured the moment, adding it to the growing list of “evidence” that he has deeper feelings for her.

Wonwoo’s Appearance on Hani’s TikTok:

During a TikTok dance challenge that Hani filmed with Seungkwan and Hoshi, Wonwoo made a surprise cameo in the background. Although he was quiet and didn’t participate, fans couldn’t help but notice his lingering presence, which seemed out of character for someone as private as Wonwoo. The light teasing from Hoshi and Seungkwan about his cameo only fueled speculation.

Fan Theories Based on Their Lyrics:

Some fans have analyzed the lyrics of BTS and Seventeen songs, trying to find hidden messages that could hint at Hani and Wonwoo’s relationship. While there’s no direct evidence, many believe that certain Seventeen ballads and BTS’s love songs could have been inspired by their connection, especially given that both groups have collaborated on music and have shared moments of artistic inspiration.

Accidental Livestream Glance:

During a Seventeen Vlive, fans caught a brief moment where Wonwoo’s phone buzzed, and his screen lit up with a message. Though the message wasn’t visible, eagle-eyed fans noticed that the contact name started with an “H” and immediately theorized it was Hani texting him. His shy smile and quick movement to turn off the phone only added to the speculation.

The Seungkwan and Hoshi Teasing Game:

Fans have noted that Seungkwan and Hoshi love to tease both Hani and Wonwoo whenever they are all in the same space. During one joint live stream, Seungkwan joked about how “someone” blushes whenever a certain someone is around, while Hoshi chimed in, saying, “We all know who it is.” Though neither of them directly named Hani or Wonwoo, fans were quick to make the connection based on their history of playful teasing.

Wonwoo’s Shyness Around Hani:

During award show appearances, fans have pointed out that Wonwoo often appears shyer or more reserved when Hani is around. While he’s normally quiet, his subtle reactions, such as avoiding eye contact or nervously laughing when she’s mentioned, have led fans to believe that he has a crush on her, and he’s struggling to hide it.

I’m so excited to write my oc male member for bts!!! He’s London-born, half Korean–Japanese, soft-spoken by day… but don’t let that pretty face fool you. 👀

More freaky than Jungkook and J-Hope combined and he knows exactly what he’s doing. You’ve been warned. 🖤✨

How ARMY describes him:

• “If Jungkook is golden, Isiah is forbidden.”

• “The Weeknd but with a British accent and soft eyes. We’re doomed.”

• “BTS’s certified ‘make you cry then ruin you at 3am’ member.”

‘C’mon baby, sit.’-Kim Namjoon

✿✼:*ﾟ:༅｡.｡༅:*･ﾟﾟ･⭑

Genre: smut

Pairing: Namjoon X 8th member! Reader

Summary: Namjoon has always protected you since you were young… but now that you were older, he still protected you the same. But you, you wanted to prove him that you grew, and that this feeling that grew on you for him, wasn’t just childish love.

Word count: ~1,5k

Warnings/tags: unprotected sex (no creampie), making out, teasing, age gap (reader 26, Namjoon 29), fwb?, reader is bold, big dick Namjoon, he cums on her breast, she jumps on it, "good girl", "baby", "hun".

✿✼:*ﾟ:༅｡.｡༅:*･ﾟﾟ･⭑

You’re the same age as Jungkook, 26 years old and Namjoon is 29, but it wasn’t always that way.

Ten years ago back in 2013, you were 16 and him 19, and you met when you were only 13 and him 16. So in short, you’re his baby.

As the leader of the group, he felt the absolute need to take care of both you and Jungkook, making you two live your teenage years and have fun. Consequently, he was protective over you if not overprotective, and as time passed and you grew up, he didn’t change and kept protecting you. But you, you did change.

When you were young, Namjoon protecting you just made you feel safe, but now it feels different… more like a protective boyfriend.

Of course you liked to play with him, when interviewers asked if we were dating someone, you looked suspiciously at Namjoon to piss him off. You used to hold his hand, sit on his lap, and kiss his cheeks… of course, he only let you do this, which made you feel even more special to him.

And as more time passed, no only did you catch serious feelings for him, but you also started to get sexually attracted to him. Sitting on his lap made you feel something, kissing his cheek seemed more intimate too, but he never really understood that you were serious after all these years of joking… until now.

You entered his bedroom, finding him laying on his bed, back against the wall and watching a movie.

‘You’re here?’ he asked with his usual deep voice that you loved, without even looking at you once. But you, you put your prettiest lingerie on purpose for him to see, you wanted to impress him for once, you wanted him to tell you sweet things about how good, sexy and beautiful you looked, but not like he always did.

You were tired of him looking at you like the 16 year old girl you were once. Today, you’re 26 and you’ll prove it to him.

You get closer to the bed and put your legs on each side of his body while keeping your hips high, looking at him and blocking his view of movie on the tv.

‘Y/n~’ he whines, ‘you’re blocking my—‘ he stops talking when he notices your lingerie and position.

‘Y/n, don’t you think that’s a little too much?’ he says, disturbed by this unusual and unexpected situation, ‘just get on my right if you want to watch the movie, you don’t have to stay like this…’

‘I don’t know, I like this view.’ you boldly said as you finally lowered your hips, them meeting with his as your panties feel his crotch.

You’re not usually so bold, but if you weren’t clear this time, he wouldn’t understand.

‘Y/n, what’s wrong?’ he asks as he starts to feel something he never did. Feeling your crotch on his made him feel… something different. Something he maybe didn’t want to admit with you.

‘What? I’m alright, why?’ you ask back as you lean in, creating a friction on both of your crotch and giving him a view of inside your lingerie.

‘I don’t know what you’re doing, but I don’t think this is okay… do you understand?’ he says with a gentle voice to not upset you, but the truth is, he already has his hands on your hips and no wish to make you move, he’s just scared of what could happen once it’s too late.

‘It’s okay Namjoon… you should relax for once. You don’t have to control everything, you know?’ you answer as you lean even closer, caressing the side of his face and hair.

‘Don’t hold back, please.’ is the last thing you said before slowly and carefully, approaching your lips towards his, meanwhile, you noticed him slowly nodding.

Then in a moment, your lips were tied together.

The kiss is still awkward, tense, like a real first kiss in between two inexperienced. But after a few seconds, his grip on your hips got rougher and his lips had softened. Quickly, the kiss became more natural and sexual, from a soft peck to sucking in each other’s lips without any remorse, and as expected, Namjoon started to take the lead.

It’s you that initiated it, pushed your hips and lips on him, but it was him having his hand around your neck, tilting your head to taste you deeper, and starting to guide your hips.

Indeed, his strong hands began to make you grind on him, your lips dividing on each side of his now boner. It was your lucky day, you had large and thin panties and he wasn’t wearing anything under his pyjama pants.

Your clit rubs against his length as your panties get wet and you feel more and more needy.

Having such a strong man that you wanted since forever touching you made you feel dizzy, contrasting with his strong grip making you stay in place.

You felt so safe and secured that you already felt yourself falling onto his arms, giving him freedom to do as he pleases with you with your full consent.

Wet kissing sounds resonate in the room with the movie in the background though you were so much into it that you couldn’t hear anything.

You enjoyed hearing each other’s tongue tasting yourselves, but this friction on your sensitive bud was getting too intense, you had no control over yourself whatsoever and began to moan against his lips.

‘Fuck…’ he muttered in between kisses, finally feeling relieved enough to express himself.

You got a bit shy but it was so hot for him, hearing you moan because of how good he feels though you were just getting started.

‘Want some more hun?’ he asked with an even deeper voice.

‘Yes…’ you managed to answer. He then lifted your hips, managed to take off your panties and his pants too, leaving you two bottomless.

And when you looked down and saw his cock for the first time, your view couldn’t please you more. It was exactly how you imagined it. Big, thick and standing tall by itself.

‘C’mon baby, sit.’ he ordered.

His dick was impressive, this would be the first time you take such a big cock so you were a bit worried, but truly, you couldn’t wait to have it inside of you, destroying your insides and making you jump high.

You lower your hips slowly as he aligns his tip to your entrance, before finally feeling it entering you, his hard inches giving your walls something to clench on.

You can’t help but roll your eyes back as Namjoon groans, biting his bottom lips as if he was holding back.

‘You good?’ he asked, but you couldn’t hear anything. Instead, Namjoon observed your body as an answer as you started bouncing on it carefully to not hurt yourself. His dick kept hitting the right spots while he was staring at you intensively and enjoying your tits bouncing.

It was so good, your wetness making the clapping sounds sound louder and heavenly. When suddenly, Namjoon started lifting his hips, synchronizing with you to make it rougher because he needed to be sooo deep inside you.

‘More!’ You scream as your orgasm approaches dangerously.

Namjoon was now fucking you all on his own, lifting you to make you jump on him as he thrusted into you, you were completely losing yourself.

‘Cum baby…’ he said with his deep voice. And before you could even think about it, you found yourself releasing your sweet juice around his big cock.

‘Good girl… I’m right here…’ he said as you were reaching your highest, then coming back down to earth.

As you calmed down and were catching your breath, Namjoon lifted you up and laid you down on your back, positioning himself on top of you, his dick towering over your breast.

‘Where d’you wanna cum?’ You whispered. He pointed your breast and you nodded immediately.

He then started to pump himself, his red cock now begging for some relief as his breath fastened.

‘Cum for me…’ you said with the strength you had left, and he did.

Right after you said those words his thick white cum came out flying from his tip to your breast, and your face. He even managed to wrap your nipples in his cream.

‘You were so good…’ you told him as he laid on top of you, his head resting beside yours. ‘Really?’ he asked. ‘Of course, thank you…’. and the praising went on. For a first time together, it was so good… and trust, from the way this happened, this won’t be the last time fucking with him.

Thank you for reading! Likes, reblogs and comments are so so so appreciated!! Thank you^^

Nr.319, The Crusader MK2

Crusader, in full "Tank, Cruiser Mk VI, Crusader", also known by its General Staff numberA.15, was one of the primary British cruiser tanks during the early part of the Second World War.

Over 5,000 tanks were manufactured and they made important contributions to the British victories during the North African campaign.

The Crusader tank would not see active service beyond Africa but the chassis of the tank was modified to create anti-aircraft, fire support, observation, communication, bulldozer and recovery vehicle variants.

Bolt Action ‘narrative’ event tomorrow. This is the list i’m bringing:

Officer, x5 infantry sections, x3 bren carrier iors, crusader, 25pdr, sniper, mortar, mmg, and artillery officer. I’ve used this list before and it is very flexible and fun.

Also, i made a ‘artifact’ for the ‘narrative’ component of the day. It is a ‘letter back home’ and ‘reply’. I struggled to keep it to 300 words max, but it is better for it. The photo is from internet but fits the artifact theme i was going for.

Fan Favorite Hani & Namjoon Moments

Fox of BTS | BTS 8th Member

~Fans adore the intellectual energy between Namjoon and Hani, especially in their deep, late-night discussions. There’s a popular clip from In the SOOP where Hani and Namjoon are sitting outside, talking about philosophy and art. Hani shares a book recommendation, and Namjoon listens intently, even taking notes. ARMY loves seeing Hani keeping up with Namjoon’s intellectual curiosity, leading fans to call them “the brain duo” of BTS.

~Hani has a sixth sense for keeping track of Namjoon’s things. Fans find it hilarious and endearing to see her anticipating his next “lost item” and slipping his wallet or phone back to him without a word. In one Run BTS episode, Namjoon misplaces his bag, and, just when he’s about to get frustrated, Hani wordlessly hands it to him with a soft smile. ARMY goes wild over her stealthy attentiveness.

~In a behind-the-scenes clip, Namjoon and Hani are seen hiking together, both admiring the trees and taking photos. Namjoon points out different plants to Hani, and she listens with genuine curiosity. When they find a particularly scenic spot, Hani hands Namjoon her phone to snap a photo, and fans gush over the gentle moment of them enjoying the simplicity of nature.

~Once, during a V-Live, Hani mentioned how she and Namjoon often visit bookstores together and exchange book recommendations. When fans spotted them at a library in matching beanies and oversized sweaters, they went wild, dubbing it the “Library Date.” Fans love seeing Namjoon and Hani’s shared love for books and how it gives them a unique way to bond.

~Namjoon is often seen giving Hani pep talks before performances, knowing she sometimes feels extra pressure being in a male-dominated group. In a memorable clip, just before going on stage, he places a hand on her shoulder, tells her to “go out there and own it,” and reminds her she’s an essential part of BTS. Fans adore how he subtly supports her in a leader-like manner, giving her the confidence boost she needs.

~During events, Namjoon is often seen quietly checking in on Hani, like subtly guiding her through crowds or making sure she’s comfortable. At an awards show, a clip showed him gesturing to staff to give her some water. Fans love these small moments that show Namjoon’s caring, big-brother side.

During a behind-the-scenes segment, Namjoon was seen talking about Hani’s skills as a songwriter, telling the group and staff, “You have to listen to her lyrics; they’re powerful.” Fans love seeing how proud he is of her talent and how he’s always there to hype her up. His open support makes fans see how much respect he has for Hani as an artist.

~At a music show, Hani stumbled a little in her high heels, and Namjoon immediately reached out, steadying her with a gentle hand on her back. ARMY loved how instinctively he responded, watching over her without hesitation. This small yet sweet moment made fans melt, especially when Hani looked back to thank him, giving him a quick appreciative smile.

~Fans have noticed that when Namjoon and Hani are spotted together at creative meetings or brainstorming sessions, they often sit side by side and chat excitedly. In one clip, they were bouncing off lyrics and visual ideas, with Namjoon looking at her with genuine fascination. Fans cherish seeing how they inspire each other artistically, pushing each other to explore new ideas.

~At one point during a trip overseas, Hani was spotted wearing an oversized sweater that looked familiar to fans, who quickly pieced together that it was one of Namjoon’s favorites. Fans loved how she was quietly repping Namjoon, making it seem natural but also endearing. ARMY went into a frenzy, reposting pictures and making playful comments.

~At a concert rehearsal, Hani was feeling nervous about her solo, and fans caught a heartwarming moment on camera where Namjoon spoke softly, reassuring her that she would “blow everyone away.” His calm, grounding words helped ease her nerves, and the sweet interaction left fans swooning over Namjoon’s caring nature and how he always seems to know just what to say.

⋆｡𖦹°‧𓂅 Isiah reads thirst tweets

synopsis࣪ › Back from military service, BTS’s Isiah makes his first appearance to BuzzFeed Celeb to read a new batch of unfiltered thirst tweets — and it’s chaos.

“From the kitchen floor to the FUC***** BALCONY?!"There was a silence that lasted just a second too long. His head jerked toward the camera.

“…I just got out of the military. I have trauma.”

The soft hum of fluorescent lights filled the sleek studio as the BuzzFeed team bustled quietly behind the cameras, adjusting equipment and balancing mics. A silver stool sat center stage beneath a muted spotlight. The minimal set was clean grey walls, black floor, and a bucket of bottled water off-camera. On the table sat a matte black iPad Pro, its screen already lit and open to a Notes folder titled Thirst Tweets: Godspeed.

And then he walked in.

Isiah Seo Minhyun — or as the world called him: BTS’s Isiah.

Or Zay. Or Zaddy. Or Sir, I’m free Thursday.

Dressed simply—black fitted crewneck tee hugging his frame, washed grey jeans resting just right on his hips, and a black leather belt cinched with quiet precision. A silver Rolex Daytona peeked out from under his sleeve, gleaming each time he adjusted his watch or tucked his hand into his pocket.

His expression? Playfully unreadable.

“Alright..”

He exhaled with a touch of flair, brushing invisible lint from his shirt collar. “Hello, BuzzFeed. I’m Isiah from BTS—though some of you apparently call me ‘Zay,’ ‘Zaddy,’ or…” He glanced off-camera with an expression of pure judgment, “and I quote… the downfall of dignity.”

A few staff members behind the camera cracked up.

Isiah shot the camera a cheeky look. “Today, we’re reading some thirst tweets. Honestly? I’m scared.”

He wasn’t exaggerating. He adjusted his thick-rimmed glasses with unnecessary precision, the soft lighting catching the edges of his face in a way that made the Internet go feral on a regular basis.

He tapped the iPad and cleared his throat dramatically.

He unfolded the sleek iPad in his hands, swiping once with his thumb before reading aloud.

���It’s true, Isiah Seo Minhyun—” He paused and blinked at the screen. Then slowly squinted at the camera with a sharp tilt of his jaw.

“First off, the fact you used my full government name? Weird. But let’s continue.”

The camera crew snorted. One person behind the light monitor practically choked on their coffee.

“Honestly, it’s giving… police report energy.”

“Isiah could run me over with a shopping cart and I’d say ‘wheee’ like it was a ride at Disneyland.”

He squints. “A shopping cart? That’s how we’re starting this?”

He laughs, shaking his head. “Honestly, the visual is kinda funny. Like me in a parking lot… just —”

[He mimes pushing a cart aggressively.]

Offscreen, someone lets out a snort.

“Isiah in glasses should be a public health warning. There are only so many times a person can survive a heart attack.”

He adjusts them slowly and smirks.

“Guess I’m a hazard now.”

“If I ever got to hug Isiah, I’d just melt into a puddle. Don’t even need words. Just ✨vibes✨.”

He smiles — this time, soft and genuine.

“Okay, that one’s cute. You win. Come get your hug.”

He spreads his arms toward the camera, hugging the air dramatically. “Virtual hug activated.”

“Every time Isiah adjusts his glasses, I lose five years off my life. That’s not a joke.”

He adjusted his glasses on purpose—slowly, seductively, like he knew exactly what he was doing.

“Hope your will’s in order,” he said with a smirk.

A few crew members behind the camera chuckled, and Isiah leaned forward slightly, eyes scanning the next tweet.

“Isiah could breathe near me and I’d ovulate on sight.”

He blinked. Once. Then again. “That’s… wow.” He tilted his head toward the camera with a horrified grin.

“I don’t even know what to say to that. Should I be flattered? Should I be scared?” He glanced at the crew. “Should I call HR?”

Still laughing, he swiped to the next tweet.

“Isiah gives off the energy of a man who doesn’t ask twice. He tells you once, and your knees just obey.”

He raises both eyebrows, nodding slowly.

“I feel like I should deny this… but where’s the lie?”

“I had a dream Isiah kissed me and I woke up sobbing because it wasn’t real. Please someone put me in a medically-induced coma so I can go back.”

He blinked. “That’s both flattering and… worrying.”

Then he looked into the camera and said sweetly,

“Alright, sweetheart. Close your eyes… I’ll be waiting in your next REM cycle.”

“Petition for Isiah to record bedtime stories because his voice could cure my anxiety.”

He read it in silence, then grabbed an empty paper and held it like a storybook.

“In a distant land, there was a girl who thirst-tweeted one too many times… and got banned from Twitter for being down bad.”

“The way I’d let Isiah use me 24/7 in anyway he wanted to. From the kitchen floor to the FUC***** BALCONY?!”

His jaw drops dramatically. “You people are some FREAKS! Like, sum’ freaky a** freaks!”

He laughs so hard he almost falls out of his chair, running a hand through his messy hair.

“Y’all need help. For real.”

The next tweet is only worse.

“Isiah can spit in my mouth AND get me pregnant AND run me over with a semi-truck AND I would still thank him.”

There was a silence that lasted just a second too long. His head jerked toward the camera.

“…I just got out of the military. I have trauma.”

Laughter erupted from the crew.

He leans back and exhales.

“You know, I kinda get it. My music’s… mature, innit? But I don’t think I could ever do the s** you guys are tweeting about.*”

He cracks up, rubbing his eyes.

“But hey, I guess I’ve officially seen and heard the worst. Y’all are something else.”

Then his voice softens, a little smirk on his lips.

“Alright, honest tho. People always ask me, ‘Isiah, why do your songs have to be so… explicit?’”

He shrugs, gaze lingering on the camera with a wink.

“And the answer’s simple.”

He leans forward.

“Because it can.”

He sets the iPad down gently, like it’s done enough damage for one day.

“So… yeah. That was an experience. I need therapy. And also, y’all need to be on a watchlist.”

He smiles.

“Thanks, BuzzFeed. I’ll see you next time… or not. Depending on how emotionally recovered I am from this.”

As the crew claps, he waves at the camera.

“And remember: stay hydrated, moisturized, and maybe just a little bit less feral. Just a little.”

Late Night

November 2023

"I thought it was only me who couldn't sleep without you," Jungkook murmured, his voice like silken threads against the hushed hum of the night Luna was surrounded with.

Eyes shimmering like moonlit pools, Luna graced him with a smile that could melt the frost from winter's breath. Stretching languidly, she laid her glasses aside, her fingers delicately adjusting the laptop on her lap, its screen casting an ethereal glow upon her face.

Under the soft glow of the laptop screen, Jungkook observed the dark circles that adorn Luna's eyes. A teasing smile played on his lips as he remarked, "You should sleep, I can see those dark circles from the screen."

Luna, ever the flirt, met his gaze with a mischievous glint in her eyes. "They're from me staying up late thinking of you."

Jungkook couldn't help but chuckle at her playful banter. "More like staying up late devouring those romance novels of yours."

Luna pouted playfully, her lips forming a mock frown. "How dare you? Those novels are my guilty pleasure. And besides, I miss reading them to you."

Jungkook's heart fluttered at her words, a warm sensation spreading through his chest. He tried to mask his feelings with a nonchalant shrug. "I can't say the same. Those novels are a bit too flowery for my taste."

"Oh, but you secretly enjoy them," Luna teased, her eyes sparkling with amusement. "I can see it in the way you lean in closer, the way your eyes widen when I reach a particularly steamy scene."

Jungkook felt his cheeks flush with heat, his denial caught in his throat. "Nonsense."

Luna giggled, her laughter echoing through the room like a melody. "Don't try to fool me, Koo. I know you secretly adore my storytelling."

He couldn't help but smile, caught in her web of affection and playful teasing. "Fine, I admit it. I do enjoy our reading sessions."

Luna's eyes lit up with delight. "Knew it!" She snuggled into her bed, adjusting the laptop beside her.

Jungkook chuckled, a sense of warmth enveloping him. "What time is it there, Aera?" he asked, his voice laced with tenderness.

Luna's eyes flitted towards the clock on her laptop, "1 AM," she replied, her voice a gentle melody in the quiet night. "What's there?"

"11 AM," Jungkook's voice echoed across the miles, a bridge spanning the vast expanse of time zones.

Luna's heart skipped a beat, a fluttering rhythm akin to the wings of a hummingbird. "Did you sleep well last night?" she inquired, her concern as palpable as the soft moonlight streaming through her window.

Jungkook sighed a sound that waved like an exhausted sprite in the stillness of the night. "Tried to," he admitted, his voice laced with a hint of sleep-deprived humor. "It wasn't the best sleep I've had."

With a playful click, Jungkook placed his empty glass on the table, its silence resonating with the unspoken words that hung in the air.

Luna's lips curled into a teasing smile, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "You look cute while sleeping," she declared out of the blue.

Jungkook's eyebrows arched, a hint of surprise flickering across his face. "That was so random," he remarked, his voice laced with amusement.

Luna's smile widened, her eyes sparkling with delight. "But the truth," she countered, her voice a mischievous whisper that carried the weight of countless stolen glances and tender moments observed in the quietude of slumber.

Luna's eyes lit up like a Christmas tree, her excitement palpable as she leaned forward, her voice bubbling with anticipation. "Anywho, Koo, guess what's happening in the book I'm reading?"

Jungkook, ever the patient listener, raised an eyebrow, his curiosity piqued. "Do tell," he encouraged, his voice laced with a hint of intrigue.

"Well, in the story, this girl's boyfriend, the one she's absolutely in love with, calls her from beyond the grave," Luna revealed, her voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper.

Jungkook's jaw dropped, his eyebrows shooting up in disbelief. "After he dies?" he asked, his voice echoing Luna's astonishment.

"Yes!" Luna exclaimed, her eyes wide with excitement. "It's like, he's calling her from the afterlife, and she can't believe it's real. But here's a thought, what if it's just a hallucination because of the grief?"

Jungkook scratched his head, his mind grappling with the perplexing plot twist. "Hmm, that's a good question," he admitted. "Could be either, I guess. I haven't read the book myself, so I can't say for sure."

Luna's brow furrowed slightly, a hint of disappointment clouding her usually cheerful face.

Jungkook's heart skipped a beat. Had he inadvertently upset Luna? Was his casual shrug a sign of indifference? Did he seem distant, neglecting her thoughts and feelings?

A torrent of anxious questions swirled in his mind, each one threatening to drown him in a sea of guilt. He opened his mouth to apologize, but Luna's voice cut him off.

"It's impossible though," she declared, her voice firm and unwavering. "The dead can't communicate with the living."

Jungkook's mind, still caught in the whirlwind of his self-inflicted anxiety, paused to reassess the situation. Luna's words, though initially alarming, were not a reflection of her emotions towards him. She was simply expressing her disbelief in the supernatural aspect of the book she was reading.

With a sigh of relief, Jungkook forced a nonchalant smile, attempting to mask his momentary panic. "Oh, right," he chuckled, feigning amusement. "How could he be calling her? Maybe it's a fantasy novel, who knows?"

Luna, her body nestled comfortably amidst her pillows, nodded in agreement, her eyelids fluttering shut. She was exhausted, her mind heavy with the day's events.

Jungkook, sensing her fatigue, gently suggested, "You should sleep, Aera."

Luna's gaze remained fixated on the laptop screen, her eyes tracing the familiar features of the man she had grown to love with an intensity that bordered on obsession. The thought of sleeping without the comfort of his voice, the reassurance of his presence, was almost unbearable.

In a soft, almost pleading tone, she requested, "Can you sing for me?"

Jungkook's heart melted at her sweet request. Without hesitation, he inquired, "Sure, what do you want me to sing?"

"... Hate You," Luna murmured, her voice barely a whisper. She referred to one of his songs from his latest album, a stark contrast to the love that blossomed between them.

Jungkook hesitated for a moment, about to point out the irony of her choice, but Luna's words cut him short. "Who's focusing on the lyrics? I just wanna listen to your voice," she explained, her eyes fluttering closed as she pulled the blanket over her, seeking solace in the warmth it provided.

With a warm smile, Jungkook settled into his position, his elbows resting on the table, his chin resting on his hand. His gaze remained fixed on Luna, his eyes filled with an unspoken depth of love.

A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth as he cleared his throat, his voice soft and melodious as he began to sing.

"I wish you went... behind my back..." The lyrics flowed from his lips, weaving a tapestry of emotions that transcended the boundaries of the digital realm, his voice a soothing balm to her weary soul.

The moon cast its silvery glow upon Luna's room, illuminating the scene with an ethereal radiance, she drifted off to sleep, lulled by Jungkook's enchanting voice, her heart overflowing with a love that defied all logic and reason.

With a final gentle whisper of "Sweet dreams, love," Jungkook ended the call, his heart brimming with affection for the woman who had captured his soul. The moon continued its silent vigil, casting its silvery light upon the sleeping form of Luna, a testament to the enduring power of love.
