[lesbiancarat]

for anyone wondering, what about Han Sungsoo? 🤔 it seems that he hasn't been the CEO of Pledis since early 2022, the role until now was filled by Lee Dahye, a former VP for Bighit. HSS has still remained in the company but was demoted to an internal director

if you're wondering how you missed this, don't worry, there was never an official announcement! 🙃 carats had to find this out more than a year after the fact by doing some digging

but now Lee Dahye is being replaced by Kim Yeon Soo, who's the original VP of Pledis before they were acquired. He's the one that appeared on SVT Club, and he has historically had a good relationship with Seventeen. the way I always thought of it is Nu'est was HSS's project group, where Kim Yeon Soo oversaw the creation of svt. after the acquisition, he was put in charge of Hybe Labels Japan. it seems now he will remain in that position while also taking over as Pledis CEO

personally, I don't know what to think of this yet. on one hand carats have always had a positive view of Kim Yeon Soo, and he's always seemed to have a close relationship with svt. and I would say I'd rather have him in charge than a hybe plant

but the timing of it is very convenient. this is pure speculation on my part but with Seungkwan's Instagram post recently and all the stuff going on with hybe, it wouldn't surprise me if hybe was bringing in Kim Yeon Soo to try and appease the members (and possibly other Pledis employees). it definitely feels like they're trying to appease /somebody/ with this move, and I can't see it being the fans since most carats didn't know about Lee Dahye being the CEO in the first place. so I can only assume it's people within Pledis they're trying to appease 🤷‍♀️

                       ❛  CULT CREATIVE ❜   ─────  HOME IS THE FIRST GRAVE.

Cult Creative, formerly Cult Creative Records, is a South Korean record label founded in 2003 by Han Byungcheol. Although Cosmic Club acquired the label in 2015, it still operates independently. In 2017, Cult Creative Records shed records from its name, becoming simply Cult Creative.

Cult Creative debuted its first artist in 2005, KIM RUBY, who brought the company moderate success upon debut. Their second act, HAEWON, in 2008, got the same results. However, the debut of the label’s first girl group in 2011, HEARTBURN, put the company on the map, bringing national success. The soloist JUDY in 2013 would be their first act to debut disastrously, but it would also be why Cult Creative’s name is known worldwide; the soloist would vindicate herself in her subsequent release and become the label's most prominent artist.

      ── ⠀† ˙    CULT CREATIVE CONTROVERSIES.   

 Dispute with Natthawut Sangsingkeo

In early June 2019, it was reported that Natthawut Sangsingkeo, also known as Dean, a member and composer of the Starborn Creative and Cult Creative group Zombie Pop, filed a lawsuit against the latter company for copyright infringement. He claimed he was not credited for writing So Hot and Chained Up by HeatBurn and Red String, respectively. The suit was announced via a Starborn Creative representative.

In a separate statement, the representative made it clear they were suing both Cult Creative and the producer, who was revealed to be BEAM (real name Lee JiYoung), who failed to credit Dean appropriately. They named the former for failing to hold the producer accountable for his actions. 

Cult Creative later released its statement, saying the accusations were “false” and that there was no evidence that Dean had participated in the composition of either song, to which Dean later submitted proof that he wrote a majority of both songs. The courts sided with Dean, stating the evidence provided was undeniable. The suit would be settled, with the artist getting royalties for 50% of both songs.

However, after this suit was settled, Dean would file another. He stated the previous case’s conclusion was inadequate as he had written a significant amount of both songs. Again, due to Dean's additional evidence, the courts sided with him. 

Ultimately, Cult Creative gave him 100% of the songwriting royalties. Later, a Cult Creative representative released a statement publicly apologizing to Dean and announcing they had terminated BEAM’s contract.

PIANO CONCERTO IN A♭ MINOR, PART I: ALLEGRO

“Grumbler, heart squeezed until it suffocates; wailing lament, difficult struggle; in a word, the color of this key is everything struggling with difficulty.” — Ideen zu einer Aesthetik der Tonkunst, Christian Schubart

In which Andrew experiences a reunion. FEATURING: Andrew Han, Oh Kiyoung, Jeon Daewoong WORD COUNT: 2.3k SETTING: June 2024 NOTES: The first third of Andrew's Great Existential Crisis of 2024. Part II will be in July fingers crossed 🤞.

Leading Fable is much more difficult than Andrew thought it would be. He was under the impression that the difficulty came more from the group members themselves than any responsibilities of the position. The difficulty, in fact, comes in two places. The first place is Mingeun. Getting him to do anything saps most of Andrew's strength. That was never a problem when Jaeseop was around, because he asked a question, Mingeun answered. The second place is the combination of Taein and Daewoong. Andrew arrives early to every practice and leaves late. He's forced to sit in the passenger seat of the van. He tries to escape to his studio and discovers it's been temporarily gifted to Hwang Jaesun’s producer. Haksu loses the spare key to their practice room and Andrew is blamed for it. Byeonghwi finds it three days later in their apartment and Andrew is again blamed for not looking close enough. He loses in every possible situation.

Andrew sorely misses Jaeseop's bloodline immunity, and his past blissful ignorance of the job's responsibilities. Daewoong, who's nearly insufferable on a good day, turns downright spiteful. It must have been only Jaeseop's connection to Taein and Daewoong’s loyalty to Taein that kept him in check. The time that Andrew insinuated he was nothing more than their CEO’s dog didn't help matters in the least.

He knows why Daewoong behaves like this, and yet he can't dredge up an ounce of sympathy. Taein was the one who scouted him, promised him a lifetime of fame and fortune if he worked hard. Daewoong was supposed to be in EXO. Then he was supposed to be in NCT. Then he got into a fist fight with another trainee and broke the other guy's nose. It was Kiyoung who pried this out of him, before Fable's debut, at a less than reputable club in a seedy part of Gangnam. Andrew remembers Kiyoung coming back that night reeking of booze and cigarette smoke. He also remembers Kiyoung taking at least three showers and using all the hot water.

Now Andrew is the idol, and Daewoong is in the driver's seat, clutching the steering wheel in a ten and two iron grip. They're on their way to Kiyoung’s home in Incheon to pick him up, following his military service discharge from last week. Daewoong has taken the opportunity a drive outside of Seoul offers to grill Andrew on every minute activity of the past twenty-four hours.

“I don't know where Byeonghwi went last night,” he says again. Andrew has taken to staying in Eunsu's old room, because it's the younger members who make the most trouble. It has yet to help in situations like this. He doesn't know how Daewoong knows Byeonghwi disappeared shortly before midnight and reappeared in the morning, his bed left cold and empty and clearly never slept in.

“He’s old enough to make his own decisions,” Andrew says.

From the look on Daewoong’s face, it’s clear he doesn’t think the same way. 

“What about Mingeun? How is he doing?”

Daewoong asked him that same question yesterday. Andrew pretends he didn’t. “He’s upset about the subunit,” he says, which is the same response he gave yesterday. He feels like a broken record.

“He was upset about the subunit yesterday.”

“He won't change his mind in a day,” is Andrew's response.

“This is all very surface level, Andrew,” Daewoong says. “Any casual observer could see that.”

“You expect me to interrogate him. I’m the last person he’d spill his guts to.” According to Kakao Maps on the dashboard in front of them, they’re still twelve minutes away from their destination. Another twelve unbearable minutes in Daewoong’s unbearable company. 

“Then you’ll have to try harder.”

Andrew doubts Jaeseop has conversations like this. Or he’s feeding all their secrets to Daewoong and Taein, and Andrew’s never really known him. He finds that hard to believe. 

“What about your work with Byungho-ssi? How is that progressing?” Daewoong asks, changing the subject. 

Andrew knows Byungho better as Atlas, the youngest member of Taein’s new idol group. He’s a serious and somber kid who seems to shoulder the weight of the world. Andrew finds that ironic. He also seems to be the one the rest of the group is built around, and for that, Andrew already pities him. That, and their conversations make him feel like he’s looking into a mirror. Apart from their obvious similarities in nationality and names, Atlas has that same reckless confidence Andrew himself had when he was the same age. 

“It’s going well,” he says, watching the buildings blur by them. He takes another look at the map. Seven minutes.

Daewoong doesn’t respond. Andrew knows him well enough by now to know he’s expecting more.

“Atlas is proficient,” he continues. “He's quick to learn and disciplined.”

He discards a handful of other adjectives—passionate, enthusiastic, earnest. None of that matters. What matters is that he can do the work now, and then seven years down the line as well.

“Good,” Daewoong says. “And your song?”

This is the part that Andrew was dreading. At first, he was only listening to their music, giving pointers to Atlas and Taein, sitting in their studio while Atlas worked so he could be filmed as the supportive senior in their pre-debut YouTube show. His responsibilities have steadily increased, and now Andrew is writing one of their debut songs. Intak is writing the other. As far as he knows, Intak is done. They haven't discussed it at all.

“It's also going well,” Andrew answers after an extended silence. It isn't. He can’t produce anything that doesn’t sound like a Fable song, because he’s now so intertwined with their sound. He doesn’t Taein’s new group to sound like Fable. He wants them to create their own sound, their own identity.

“There’s nothing wrong with Atlas’s music,” he says. “He’s capable of writing his own debut song. Intak wrote ours.”

And I didn’t, he adds silently to himself. Part of that is his own fault—it just took years to realize it.

“Taein-nim decided it would be better for you to do it,” Daewoong says. “More publicity.”

Now he has a purpose, a worth, some gravity, all because he was finally able to help shape Fable’s sound and concept in recent years, and achieve mild commercial success. Before that, Andrew had to fight and wheedle and bargain to have any of his music heard. Now he’s being forced to do the same for other people. His music doesn’t work like that. It’s art, first and foremost. He wants it to be heard, but he doesn’t want it to be forced, like water from a stone. It’s the fundamental difference between himself and Intak—or at least the difference in their perspectives. Taein says to jump. Intak asks how high. Taein says to write a title track for a new idol group. Intak asks what genre.

“He thinks that’s a good idea?” Andrew finally asks out loud. “Remember Jaesun-ssi’s album?”

He had been coerced into contributing a track to Jaesun’s debut as well. That contribution had ended up being a rejected Fable song. It was jarringly obvious in comparison to everything else provided by Jaesun’s producer.

“You don't need to worry about that,” Daewoong says, part reassuring and part condescending, but mostly condescending. 

Andrew reads between the lines. He's not supposed to worry about that, because he's too low on the ladder. He isn't supposed to concern himself with business decisions. He's supposed to take orders and write music, no questions asked.

The urban landscape gradually shifts to a more residential one. Andrew watches their destination inch closer and closer. They finally pull into the parking lot of a collection of nearly identical highrise apartment buildings. Daewoong parks in a guest stall and slams the car’s gearshift into park with more force than necessary.

He leaves the car idling, and less than a minute later, Kiyoung is there, right outside the window, rolling a suitcase behind him. His hair is still short, though it’s slightly longer than the regulation buzzcut he sported the last time they met on one of his days off. Andrew waves through the glass.

Daewoong starts peeling away as soon as Kiyoung and his belongings are in the backseat.

“It’s good to see you again too,” Kiyoung says dryly.

Andrew types their address into Daewoong’s phone and watches it route them back to Seoul, suppressing a sigh. Another hour drive with Daewoong and the promise of traffic the nearer they get.

“So what did I miss that wasn’t in the group chat?” Kiyoung asks once they’re on the road.

Andrew rushes to beat Daewoong to the punch, despite not having much to share. Kiyoung has seen almost everything in the group chat, and there are some things he doesn’t want to talk about in front of their manager.

“Haksu went home,” Andrew says. “His father is in the hospital.” It’s not good news, but it’s news.

“Fuck,” Kiyoung swears from the backseat.

Daewoong changes the topic before Andrew can say anything else. “You’ll be taking Mingeun’s place in the subunit later in the year.”

“The subunit,” Kiyoung repeats flatly. “What subunit? And why can’t Mingeun and I both be part of it?”

“He lost his chance. I hope you remember how to dance.”

“I covered ‘Hype Boy’ more than anyone else did.”

That’s true. The opportunity hasn’t really come up, and for that, Andrew is grateful. He checks the map. Forty-seven more minutes. 

“Our tour went well,” Andrew says, “although no one performed ‘Hype Boy.’”

“So it could have gone better,” Kiyoung responds, and Andrew can practically hear his grin. 

He shrugs, forgetting Kiyoung can’t see him. “It could have.”

Like always, Daewoong interrupts to ruin everything. “Enough. Kiyoung-ssi, no concessions will be granted for your absence. Andrew and Mingeun will catch you up starting tomorrow, and you’ll be expected at the group practice later in the day.” 

That’s news to Andrew as well, though he can’t say he’s surprised by it. He suspects Kiyoung is one of Daewoong’s most-hated Fable members, although almost all of them are Daewoong’s most-hated Fable members. The only ones who seem to lack that distinction are Intak, Jaeseop, and Byeonghwi. Kiyoung, on the other hand, is a special case. He’s a year older than Daewoong, and Fable was his second chance to be an idol. Their positions could so easily be switched, and that makes him double the target.

In any case, Kiyoung is notoriously difficult to bait. He’s too calm and easygoing. Andrew wonders if he’d be interested in being Fable’s temporary leader. He’s much better at holding conversations with Daewoong than Andrew is. 

“Of course,” Kiyoung answers evenly, and Andrew really has to admire his disposition. 

He spends the rest of the ride filling Kiyoung in with the barest bones of the events they didn’t talk about in the group chat. Surface level, as Daewoong would say. He doesn’t care. He talks about all the music they released—all the music he wrote—and Mingeun's Shooting Stars stint and how Intak's mixtape is going until his throat hurts.

By then, their drive has slowed to a crawl. Andrew thinks it would be faster to get out and walk. He doesn't say that out loud. The last ten minutes pass in agonizing silence. Even Daewoong seems to have reached his limit. 

They reach their apartment building's back entrance in relative peace.

Kiyoung doesn't give Daewoong the chance to fully park before he opens his door. “See you later, Dae.”

Andrew is about to follow, right hand resting on the door handle.

Daewoong stops him. “Andrew,” he says sharply. “I expect you to be a positive influence on Byungho-ssi and his group members.”

It's a strange time for a reminder like that, and that makes Andrew pause. It's probably one of the nuggets of wisdom Daewoong gained from failing to debut.

“They'll need one,” he responds flippantly. “And it obviously can't be you.”

Then he gets out of the car before Daewoong can fight back. He has to spend less time around Haksu.

It's been a few months since Andrew last stepped foot in what was his apartment. So when Kiyoung opens the door and calmly states, “You've really let this place go to shit,” Andrew finds himself almost agreeing. 

Intak appears to have expanded from his bedroom into the living room as well. Half his speaker set up occupies a good quarter of the room, and there are anime figurines on the TV stand.

“I'm staying in Eunsu’s old room,” Andrew says defensively. He considers defending Jaeseop and Intak as well. Then he catches Kiyoung’s eye and sees his shit-eating grin.

“It's good to be back,” Kiyoung says, rolling his shoulders back. “And congratulations on your promotion. Leader-nim, can I have Jaeseop’s room?”

“Why do you need Jaeseop’s room?” Intak stands at the other end of the room, looking a bit like a deer in headlights, or maybe the type of apparition visible during sleep paralysis.

“He doesn't need it,” Kiyoung says. “So, leader-nim?”

Andrew shrugs. “If that's what you want.”

He doesn't have the energy to complain about the leader title. He didn’t want it, but he's growing accustomed to it. It’s his burden to shoulder. Now that he's back here, he's reminded of all the crushing pressures he's under. He missed hours of work that he could have used to finish Atlas’s group's song, or their own subunit album. Instead, he was subjected to useless conversations with Daewoong.

Intak and Kiyoung have a lot more to catch up on, he reasons. LCK, and whatever anime the two of them are watching lately. “I’m going to the company,” Andrew announces. It’s only after he speaks that he remembers he doesn’t have anywhere to go. He assumes Intak won’t mind if Andrew uses his space. 

Kiyoung frowns. “Now? Are you feeling alright?”

Andrew dismisses his concerns. “I’m fine. You know, Daewoong.” He can’t say much more in front of Intak, who doesn’t hate Daewoong.

Kiyoung nods slowly like he isn’t completely convinced. Intak doesn’t look pleased either. Andrew doesn’t have the luxury of time to reassure either of them. He has work to do. 

On his way out, he hears Kiyoung ask, “Is that the Shibuya Scramble 1/7 scale Neon City Rem?”

Andrew understands less than the half the words in that question.

You know what I will never get over?

How Han Seok had like– zero friends. Zero. In the negatives. Nada. Not even a minion. No nothing. Man had zero social game.

He spent all his time either alone or with Han Seo. We never saw him womanizing or in clubs or doing anything, really. Breakfasts and lunches? With Han Seo. When Han Seo was busy CEO-ing, by himself (aka that dinner when those two businessmen disrespected Han Seo, and Han Seok was listening in through the phone.) Man didn't even go to a gym to excercise, but at home. When he wanted to drink in celebration? Drinks with Han Seo at his apartment. Feeling bored? Hunting with Han Seo. At most, he had his crush on Cha Young, and would call her now and then, which raises another question altogether, but point is-

Jang Han Seok had all of OneTM friend, and it was his little brother, what a nerd.

Jumin Han kisses 💋 | Mystic messenger.

I remember that English is not my first language 🫶✨️

He doesn't even know how he ended up there, here, with this beautiful, attractive woman, but he is.

A few moments ago he was complaining about the bad reception the bar had with his long-haired friend and his fiancée, and now, he was so mesmerized by this woman that he didn't even care that she was a stranger who accidentally bumped into her. him.

It all happened very quickly but in a fair way, in a way where the next CEO strangely didn't mind this unknown woman comparing the size of his hands while curling those juicy red lips upwards. Letting out a soft laugh at how pale Jumin's skin looked compared to yours.

Jumin felt like an idiot for being so attracted to wanting to kiss you without even knowing your name. But sometimes it was like that, he just needed those 8.2 seconds looking at you to know that he wanted more from you, not just physical, but spiritual, carnal, reaching so deep into your soul until he stole a piece of it and marked it. in your next life.

Jumin feels overwhelmed, not by the wine he drank before arriving at the club, nor by the strange margarita he had at the bar after waiting a thousand years for it to be given to him. It was your soft perfume, the beautiful glow that now passed from your skin to his clothes. He was so drunk with love at first sight... so in love with your soft voice, with the way you put his hands on your hips and helped guide him in the movement he should make to dance and follow your rhythm.

He was so in love with the way you sweetly told him your name.

And I was lost in looking for how to keep you and spend more time with you. But he acts faster, your lips against his at the best moment of the song that echoed off the walls of the club.

Jumin exploded, feeling like everything that was him had collapsed, his hands roamed your back, down your hips and stopping at your ass, squeezing it to his will as he pressed you closer to him, lifting one of his hands to the side. back of your body, your neck to fit. perfectly with you and establish a rhythm in which he would rule and you would feel comfortable...

Everything happened very fast. That I didn't even know how to find you the next morning.

Everything was cold again, the heat of your body and the sweet taste of your lips were still there, with him in that big king bed in his penthouse, but you were gone, you had slipped away like a rat, without saying goodbye. . and without leaving anything...

Except for that bold lipstick you were wearing the night before. That color that left marks on Jumin's milky skin, leaving a trail that the night before had not been the eccentric millionaire's imagination.

Jumin was in front of the mirror, seeing his neck with the repeated red stains along with the red lips marked on his skin, the shape of your lips was still intact on his skin even though he had spent the night before and from the friction against the sheets had to be pulled from his skin. Still, there they were. There you were.

Y'all know that post about "what if there was a Smash style game but with public domain characters"? This Post? Yeah i had an idea for that 😂 Though my idea wasn't "Jay Gatsby with the steel chair!" (Although that is a very funny mental image), it was "Anne Shirley with the chalk slate!" And so this comic was born! Also i threw in Victor Frankenstein cause he deserves to get smashed over the head with a slate by an 11 year old actually, maybe it'll teach him some humility like it did Gilbert.

Also Marilla and Gilbert would be summonable characters with funny catchphrases, you know they would--Marilla with her "Fiddlesticks!" And Gilbert with an apple pun (as is his wont). Truly I'm sad this doesn't actually exist.

I seem to be on a "fave media x 80's cult classic" kick right now (there'll be a Sailor Moon x Back to the Future post sometime in the future), so let's have my latest combo: the Young Jedi Knights Squad (Jaina, Jacen, Zekk, Tenel Ka, and Raynar) as The Breakfast Club! Aka a fanfic that i will never write and yet so desperately want to see written i already made Fanart for it. Go figure. Anyways have some iconic scenes from the movies!

Close Ups and a description of each of the "club" members below the cut, image IDs in the alt text!

The Players:

Zekk is, obviously, the "delinquent"; he's an orphan, he has to work and scrounge up his food and clothes, he pulls harebrained schemes for the adrenaline rush--he's a teacher's (specifically Brakiss's) worst nightmare. Of course, that's not all he is; he's got a key mind for mechanics and technology, helped by his scrap searching; he stays out at all hours because he doesn't like being home alone (his guardian Peckham, who he loves like family, is often away as a truck driver, and it gets lonely in their little house without him); he's kindhearted, and fiercely loyal, he just doesn't want to let anyone in out of fear of losing them, or that they won't like what they see....

Jaina is the "princess"; the only daughter of the Governor, she's been groomed to play nice and hang out with the other children of politicians and CEOs since she was just a little girl. Nowadays they form her primary group of friends, the most popular kids in school, looked up to--or down upon-- by their peers in equal measure. And... She kinda hates it. She stays with them only out of obligation, to make her mother's life easier, but she doesn't particularly care about any of them and doesn't even particularly enjoy their company; it's all drama and gossip and a revolving cacophony of dating and breaking up and bitter exes and rivalries and she is sick of it. She would much rather be spending her time at her dad's auto shop, getting her hands dirty tuning up engines and changing oil and bonding with Han. She can't tell anyone that tho, it would ruin her reputation...

Jacen is the "jock"; the twin brother of Jaina, he also feels a certain pressure to stay in with the popular crowd. He achieves this by being captain of the fencing team; it's no star quarterback position but it is still respectable among his peers. Fencing isn't his true passion, tho; he'd much rather be spending all his time at the local animal shelters, or assisting at the zoo. He's an animal lover through and through, but it's something he hides from his "friends" so that they don't have reason to shun him for being a "sissy." He knows there's nothing ignoble about his hobby, but they don't know that....

Tenel Ka is, for lack of a better term, the "weirdo"; she comes from somewhere called Dathomir, from a culture of fierce warrior women, and boy, does she act like it. She will readily duel anyone who looks at her wrong, she eats entire animal legs for lunch, and she never seems to show much emotion.... Ever. Add to that her missing arm (which no one knows the truth about btw, rumors fly about it being anything from a childhood accident to one of her duels gone wrong), and she cuts an intimidating figure that most students avoid. Is there more to her than that? Oh is there. Is there ever.

Raynar Thul is the final member of the crew; he's the "trust fund baby" that hangs out with a very specific clique that even Jaina and Jacen aren't a part of. He comes across as snobbish and standoffish, unwilling to dabble with anyone "lesser". This is a front, however; he projects this persona because it's what his parents expect from him, and he doesn't want word getting back to them about what he actually does: extensive volunteer work. Raynar has a drive to help people, and has been trying to use his privilege all through high school to do just that, by volunteering at food banks and for highway clean up, and donating as much of his allowance as physically possible where he can. In fact, it's how he met his girlfriend Lusa, but that's a whole other can of worms...

Young Jedi Knights!! Or, ok more accurately they're old enough to be New Jedi Order/Fate of the Jedi/etc etc era but I'm ignoring, like, all of that. So.

@lizartgurl you know that scene we low-key talked about? I drew it 😅 nothing like a good set of parallels in your star wars fan art!

And I'm also of the opinion that Zekk's dynamic with the twins when they were younger is basically 50% Off Makoto and Nagisa, so i present Zekk, explaining one of his many adventures to a pair of kids that i will explain below the cut because their story is... Complicated, and started literally a decade ago 😅

Prompt: "This is me trying"

Pitch Perfect RarePair Week 2022, Day 1

Because we all know the REAL reason Jessica and Ashley didn't get much screentime in the movies was because they were busy being James Bond-esque super spies/secret agents and living out their very own Mrs. and Mrs. Smith AU. Speaking of, hey, Pitch Perfect fandom? I have seen ZERO Mrs. and Mrs. Smith AU's for these two yet and I am APPALLED. It's perfect for them! Secret hidden lives, confusion over names (because they've got so many cover identities it's hard to keep track who's who), JESSICA'S LAST NAME IS LITERALLY SMITH THIS FIC WRITES ITSELF.

*ahem*

Anyways, welcome to my first entry (EVER!!) for Pitch Perfect RarePair Week! I rewatched the first movie recently, hyperfixated, and came to the realization that, apparently, it's "oops all rarepairs and hot takes" for me 😅. This seemed like the perfect way to tentatively test the waters of truly joining in, ya know? And so, I offer this drawing as your prompt, oh fic writers of the fandom; if you want to write this AU, you've already got free fan art for it! And my undying devotion.

This is, of course, for Prompt #1, "this is me trying"; I'm sure this was intended to be an angsty, emotional turmoil between partners prompt, but I couldn't help but turn it on its head into a comedic exchange in the middle of a High Stakes Infiltrate-and-Extract job, ya know? YOU try cracking the safe then, Jessica, if you think it's so easy! 😂

Stay tuned for the rest of my RarePair Week posts, and of course check out everybody else's entries over on @pitchperfectrarepairweek as they come in! There's some seriously talented writers in this fandom! As for me, I've got a couple of different rarepairs I've been drawing for, plus (hopefully) one fic for Day 5 that also ties into Day 6 (and, technically speaking, Day 2, though it's not as obvious)... Provided I can, ya know, ever finish writing the damn thing 😅. Though I will warn y'all, Day 2's entry may or may not be late, as I only had the idea for it a couple days ago and I haven't had time yet to draw it 😅 we shall see how quickly I can get it put together!

Days I'm participating in (and the Entries I've posted):

Day 1 (This is me trying): You are Here!

Day 2 (I've missed you): Link

My #1 post of 2022

"Have I known you 20 seconds ....

......or 20 Years?"

(or: I couldn't find a satisfactory Anne of Green Gables bookmark so I made my own)

(image id in alt text, close ups/alt angles and artist thoughts under the cut)

(quote from Taylor Swift's "Lover")

So, I really wanted a bookmark featuring my all time favorite Anne quote, aka the "diamond sunbursts and marble halls" line. But I couldn't find a good bookmark that I liked that also featured that line, so I just decided, what the hey, I'll make one myself, and I can do it exactly the way I want to! And then I did 😂.

I wanted a double-sided bookmark so I could feature a scene from each of my two favorite adaptations of Anne, i.e. the Sullivan movies and Anne with an E. I knew the Sullivan side would have the main quote since said quote actually appeared in the movies, and from there it was an easy decision to pair it with the reunion scene from A Continuing Story, a) because that scene has lived rent free in my head since I was 10, and b) while the first kiss that came after the actual line was beautiful, the reunion scene brings a different, more desperate emotion to the quote that I really like. It's in the way they clutch at each other desperately, the way Gilbert's face is pressed into her shoulder so tightly you can see wrinkles in his skin appear, the way Anne runs her fingers through his hair, the whole scene just screams "all I've wanted for two straight years was just to hold you in my arms again" and I burn I pine I perish.

After that it was just a matter of figuring out the Anne with an E side. I decided pretty quickly that I wanted the bonfire scene, both to contrast the other side by splitting the image up and because that scene, almost more than the actual first kiss scene, really cemented Gilbert's love for Anne to me, you can see it in his eyes as he looks up at her, illuminated by fire, like he's looking at his own personal goddess. And with that idea came the decision to use his letter as the quote, albeit shortened cause homeboy was rather wordy in confessing his love (which I adore that's a whole other rant) so that I kept the main, emotional hooks.

Then, I surrounded each one with meaningful flowers (lilies of the valley for the og, queen Anne's lace for the newbies), splashed some watercolors across the backgrounds for some flavor, and that was that!

Btw these are both done on toned mixed-media paper, it's thick and it's almost a cross between card stock and cardboard. I designed the whole thing in pencil, inked it in black and white, then threw watercolor over the top before finishing with water soluble markers and retouches to the white gel ink where needed. I plan to laminate this for it's protection but these pictures were taken unlaminated.

Lynk & Co y el festival OFFWEEK presentan su acuerdo de colaboración para convertir a Barcelona en referente en música electrónica

Lynk&Co y el festival OFFWEEK han celebrado hoy una rueda de prensa para anunciar su colaboración y su objetivo de posicionar a Barcelona como uno de los referentes en música electrónica.

En el encuentro, que ha tenido lugar en el Club de Lynk & Co en Barcelona ubicado en paseo de Gracia, 44, Alain Visser, CEO de Lynk & CO y Aitor Ballester, director del festival, han presentado el acuerdo de colaboración entre ambas organizaciones. La cita también ha contado con las intervenciones de los Reelow y Lucient, djs reconocidos internacionalmente que han desvelado algunos detalles de lo que se vivirá estas próximas jornadas.

OFFWEEK FESTIVAL se ha convertido en cita europea de referencia para los amantes de música electrónica y se estima que este año acudan más de 50.000 personas a lo largo de las tres jornadas. Del viernes 16 al próximo domingo 18, múltiples djs y sellos internacionales pasarán por el festival. El viernes, de la mano de Tale of Us, Afterlife regresa a OFFWEEK, junto a Mind Against, Stephan Bodzin, Fideles, Cassian, 8KAYS o Hunter/Game. Al día siguiente, una nueva edición de Solid Grooves contará con más estrellas de primer nivel como Michael Bibi, The Martinez Brothers, Dennis Cruz, PAWSA, Reelow, Cassy o Jamie Jones.

Así, Barcelona se posiciona a la altura de otras urbes en las que Lynk&Co cuenta con una fuerte presencia, como Milán o Berlín, por su espíritu cosmopolita y es ya un referente internacional de ocio y cultura. Por ello, y siguiendo su firme compromiso de enriquecer la vida de las ciudades, para convertirlas en lugares más amables con sus habitantes, Lynk&Co refuerza su apuesta por la música electrónica, y todo lo que ofrecen eventos como el OFFWEEk.

Así, Alain Visser, CEO de Lynk & Co señalaba: "estamos orgullosos de la alianza forjada con OFFWeek y a través de la cual Lynk&Co se ha convertido en patrocinador oficial de este festival referente en la música electrónica. Y es que Lynk&Co y OFFWEEK comparten una visión conjunta: el objetivo de innovar, dar un paso más allá de lo establecido para ofrecer experiencias únicas a los ciudadanos".

Por su parte, Aitor Ballester, director del festival, ha querido destacar el valor de esta alianza entre ambas marcas: "estamos muy orgullosos de contar con un patrocinador como Lynk&co, con el que compartimos valores como la innovación. Contar con el apoyo de una marca así, es un verdadero placer, porque al fin y al cabo… Qué mejor que un vehículo eléctrico para un festival de música electrónica".

Finalmente, Reelow y Lucient han destacado la importancia de tener una visión disruptiva. Algo que es común en la música, así como en la visión del festival y la filosofía de Lynk&Co.

Mind Capital sigue la vieja fórmula de esquemas ponzi con una celebridad

Un nuevo competidor aparece en el escenario de las plataformas para generar ingresos desde casa sin hacer nada más que registrarse en su página, depositar tus fondos, y esperar que ellos hagan el trabajo por ti. Mind Capital está ganando auge por su amigable plataforma con una personalidad conocida, pero no se desprende de los mismos estándares de plataformas poco fiables que resultan ser esquemas piramidales del tipo ponzi.

Una web amigable donde depositar tus fondos, detrás de ella se promociona un innovador método para generar ganancias con operaciones de criptomonedas, le sigue, una promoción de rentabilidades diarias, consistentes y que puedes retirar cuando desees. Para muchos principiantes, esto suena como la gallina de los huevos de oro, para otros más experimentados, es el modus operandi habitual de las plataformas dedicadas a las criptoestafas. La nueva plataforma Mind Capital adjunta las mencionadas características a través de la promoción de su sistema de arbitraje cripto-fiat, según la información expuesta en su portal. 

No se debe juzgar a un libro por su portada

Los detalles de su funcionamiento no agregan mucha complejidad, pero si preguntas por hacerse. Puedes depositar Bitcoin en tu cuenta con un valor mínimo de 40 USD y máximo de 100.000 USD, estos se convertirán en un “token de uso interno que va a ser inalterable e igual a un dólar” pero que “no se considera stablecoin“, a partir de él usarán tus fondos en su bot de arbitraje de cripto/fiat que funciona en múltiples exchanges y según su información te repartirán diariamente el 65% de los rendimientos obtenidos, el otro 35% se los queda Mind Capital para “gastos de gestión y mantenimiento”. Aparecen las dos primeras preguntas:

¿cómo aseguran el valor de mi inversión convirtiendo mis Bitcoins en un token de “valor estable” que no existe registrado en ninguna Blockchain o mercado de criptomonedas?

¿a qué se debe realmente esa división de ganancias, a qué se refieren con “gastos de gestión y mantenimiento”?

La organización expone a Gonzalo García Pelayo como su CEO, nacido en Madrid, “productor musical, director de cine, locutor de radio, presentador de televisión y es famoso por haber vencido en los noventa a los casinos con su sistema de ruleta, cuya historia ha sido llevada a los cines con la película ‘The Pelayos‘” es la descripción que ofrece la web en su apartado de “Equipo corporativo”. 

Imagen cedida por Diario Córdoba

Debajo de esta descripción, tenemos unos links directos a notas de prensa, que curiosamente no tienen relación alguna con Mind Capital ni mucho menos aportan directa veracidad sobre sus operaciones, al contrario, nos encontramos con artículos de diversos medios que exponen a su director ejecutivo como “el hombre que desbancó a los casinos” o “el hombre que quiere desmontar la seguridad de internet“. Cabe destacar también, que la ubicación de la empresa se encuentra en Estonia, un país que no tiene registro de vinculación con los fundadores, sólo se menciona junto con la frase “el país más digital del mundo” como aparente razón de su elección para los cimientos de la empresa. Lo que ellos quieren que los usuarios vean es lo menos importante, la investigación exhaustiva de detalles que con el criterio del internauta puedan resultar en confianza o desconfianza es la clave.

Las mismas prácticas de los esquemas piramidales promocionados como plataformas de inversión

El primer paso es registrarse, después depositar, empiezas a generar rentabilidades diarias gracias a tu aporte, te invitan a invitar a otros a participar, y te ofrecen ganancias diarias en base a tus referidos. Es la misma receta que han ofrecido los históricos casos que empiezan ganando popularidad, y terminan mal, causando desprestigio e incertidumbre ante las inversiones en criptomonedas, como por ejemplo los famosos casos de Bitconnect, OneCoin o los ya advertidos como AirBit Club en México.

Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (CNMV)Mind Capital no se ha quedado atrás en cuanto a advertencias se refiere, la Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (CNMV) de España ha expuesto su observación sobre la empresa de criptoinversión, especificando que Mind Capital, como ocurrió con Kuailian “no está autorizada para prestar los servicios de inversión”, “ni está autorizada para realizar la actividades reservadas a las instituciones de inversión colectiva”. Nuevamente, la reiteración de la investigación del usuario y su criterio a fin del resultado de la misma es lo más importante, y lo que debe seguir como recomendación a la hora de participar en cualquier tipo de inversión.   Actualización 28 Julio:

El 16 de Julio del 2020, la Comisión de Valores de Texas declara a Mind Capital como una estafa piramidal, arresta a uno de los agentes de Mind Capital e inserta en la lista a varios españoles.

El 28 de Julio del 2020, la Comisión de Valores de Italia ha insertado a Mind Capital entre otras estafas en su lista negra y en los próximos días bloquearán su página web.

Bilderberg 2023: junto a Henry Kissinger, los dueños del mundo debaten la guerra en Ucrania

Están por encima de gobiernos y organismos internacionales, pero no son ajenos a ellos. Les manipulan y tuercen sus decisiones en función de sus intereses.

Sobre el secretismo con que se realizan las reuniones de este club elitista, Daniel Estulin, quien lo investiga desde hace más de una década, expresa que “si bien es normal que en cualquier democracia moderna se proteja el derecho a la intimidad, la ciudadanía tiene derecho a saber de qué hablan los más importantes presidentes, primeros ministros, reyes y reinas de todas las casas europeas, cuando se reúnen con los empresarios y banqueros más ricos de sus respectivos países”. Estulin cuestiona la “falta de garantías hacia los ciudadanos de que el Club Bilderberg no sea un centro de tráfico de influencias y de lobby, si no se les permite conocer de qué hablan allí sus representantes. De esta manera, es legítimo preguntarse por qué el Foro de Davos y las reuniones del G8 aparecen en todos los periódicos en portada y permiten asistir a miles y miles de periodistas, mientras que nadie cubre las reuniones de este selecto club”. Ante esta crítica, los directivos de esta organización elitista han afirmado que “esa discreción es necesaria para que los participantes en los debates puedan hablar con libertad, sin ver al día siguiente sus declaraciones reflejadas en los periódicos”.

La 69º reunión del Club Bilberberg se lleva a cabo entre el 18 y el 21 de mayo de este año, haciendo confluir en su seno al secretario general de la OTAN, Jens Stoltenberg, con buena parte de la plana alta de los servicios de inteligencia globales, como la CIA y el MI6; los CEOs de corporaciones como Google, Microsoft, Pfizer, y Goldman Sachs; el presidente del Foro de Davos y hasta Henry Kissinger, quien cumple sus 100 años este 27 de mayo.

Explica el analista francés Thierry Meyssan: “El Grupo de Bilderberg es una institución creada por la CIA y el MI6. Se reúne una vez al año. La seguridad del encuentro no la garantiza el país sede sino la OTAN, cuyos mensajes y decisiones habitualmente se transmiten a las élites reunidas a través del Grupo”.

Informa la web oficial del grupo que “la reunión anual de Bilderberg está organizada por la Fundación Bilderberg Meetings. Un Comité Directivo gobierna esta fundación y designa un Presidente o Copresidentes. Los miembros son elegidos por un período de cuatro años y pueden ser reelegidos. Las responsabilidades clave del Presidente son presidir el Comité Directivo y, junto con los miembros del Comité Directivo, preparar el programa de la Reunión, así como la selección de los participantes. Los gastos de mantenimiento de la pequeña secretaría de Bilderberg Meetings están cubiertos en su totalidad por suscripción privada”.

5 ideas de negocio que han sabido tomar el pulso al consumidor

Estas empresas han sabido identificar con rapidez las tendencias de los consumidores y lanzar al mercado unas ideas de negocio de lo más rentables.

Comercio electrónico, Inteligencia Artificial, sostenibilidad… Son algunas de las grandes tendencias que marcan el mercado. Sin embargo, la competencia en estos sectores hace que cada vez sea más complicado lanzar un negocio rentable, debido a la saturación del mercado.

En este contexto, encontrar ideas de negocio que se anticipen al próximo boom es un aspecto crucial para triunfar como emprendedor.

Reserva de campos de golf

Aunque a menudo es considerado un deporte para ricos, el golf es cada vez más popular. Se trata de una actividad que ha mostrado un gran crecimiento a raíz de la pandemia, y donde el consumidor busca nuevas experiencias que lo sitúen al lado de otros deportes al alza, como el pádel.

 los emprendedores detrás de Golfee han encontrado un gran negocio en el desarrollo de una app que permite a los golfistas amateurs reservar una plaza en su club favorito, organizando un partido en apenas tres clics. Durante sus primeros meses en el mercado, ya han facturado más de 40.000 euros, y acaban de iniciar una ronda de financiación de 250.000 euros para expandir el negocio.

Cocina personalizada para deportistas

La siguiente idea de negocio ha conseguido encontrar un nicho de mercado potente en la suscripción de comida para deportistas profesionales. Se trata de MIOBIO, una empresa española que utiliza una fórmula similar a la de otras empresas de gran crecimiento, como Wetaca, pero centrándose en un público objetivo tan concreto como los deportistas de alto rendimiento.

Después de cinco años de trayectoria, MIOBIO está creciendo un 142% mensual, y entre sus planes para 2023 están abrir cocinas en Italia, ofrecer un servicio para deportistas amateurs y diseñar más aplicaciones para su software, MIA.

Monetizar la audiencia con un podcast premium

Tal y como hemos explicado en otros artículos de EMPRENDEDORES, el podcast se ha convertido en un formato más que interesante para aumentar las cifras de negocio y mejorar la marca personal de los emprendedores. Prueba de ello son sus enormes cifras de crecimiento, que posicionan a este formato como uno de los más recurrentes para crear contenido en 2023.

Per, ¿cómo monetizar un podcast? Mumbler ha diseñado una especie de marketplace en el que los creadores pueden dar rendimiento a estos contenidos, ya sea de forma recurrente (suscripción a un podcast) o puntual (un curso, o acceso a una temporada completa). De cada pago, Mumbler retiene una comisión del 10%, como hacen otras plataformas parecidas como Gumroad o Substack.

Carne vegana a base de garbanzos

La transformación del consumidor de 2023 es una cuestión que se hace muy evidente en industrias como la producción alimentaria. En este contexto, las “carnes” veganas son uno de los nichos de mayor crecimiento en los últimos años, y también donde más ideas de negocio se lanzan al mercado.

En este caso, una nueva marca, Chichita Foods, ha encontrado un hueco en la fabricación de este tipo de productos, utilizando el garbanzo como principal materia prima para crear una carne vegetal saludable. “Empezamos a crear nuestra propia carne vegana para consumo propio porque no veíamos alternativas saludables y proteicas. Los productos que encontrábamos para veganos eran opciones muy poco saludables”, explica Marc Serrano, cofundador y CEO de la compañía.

Productos basados en CBD a domicilio

Como suplemento alimenticio, como producto de belleza, como artículo de farmacia… los derivados del cannabis están entrando en el mercado con muchas fórmulas para triunfar. Una de ellas es la de Hippy Collective, la marca digital nativa de CBD de más rápido crecimiento en España.

Solo en 2022, el negocio obtuvo unos ingresos de más de 355.000 euros, una cifra que esperan superar con creces en 2023 tras cerrar una ronda de inversión de 700.000 euros para comenzar a distribuir a tiendas multimarca y lanzar nuevos productos derivados de este componente del cannabis, como vapers o un bálsamo cicatrizante para tatuajes.
