#HECK YES I LOVE THIS SM

[ teasing ] a light brushing of lips against a partner's skin without fully kissing / calcharo and yinyue because the tension TM fklwfwm

𝑫𝑰𝑭𝑭𝑬𝑹𝑬𝑵𝑻 𝑾𝑨𝒀𝑺 𝑻𝑶 𝑲𝑰𝑺𝑺 𝑺𝑶𝑴𝑬𝑶𝑵𝑬. || accepting

─「银月」─  ruthless. merciless. unforgiving. those were the words associated with the man who was the LEADER of the ghost hounds. his presence was like a ghost he embodied, living within the shadow and avoiding the light. EXILES were like that, it was a dog-eat-dog world. survival of the fittest. while huanglong was blessed with the power of their SENTINEL and the magistrate who protect and drive the nation forward to prosperity, for others, they weren't as fortunate.

                he was the blood and soul of the survivors. he was the prime example of someone who rose to the TOP by fighting and giving everything he had. the fear he instilled into his enemies had, in turn, been sensed by those around him. people tend to avoid him. his very presence was intimidating. scary. if you valued your life, you better not cross the man named calcharo.

                but not the rover.

" you shouldn't get close to me. " " i don't see why not. " " it's dangerous. " " i can handle danger. "

                at the moment, however, she could practically count the lashes above his striking silver eyes with how close their faces were. back rested against the ground of the training area, with HIS FRAME keeping her pinned down and his hand disarming the blade from her grip. how did they get into this situation again ? aah ... right.

                was it brave or FOOLISH of her to ask him for a sparring session ? perhaps both. she had been observing his fighting technique in battles and missions they were in together, and curiosity got the better of her. while she had told him not to hold back on her account, yinyue didn't think he was going ALL OUT either. he was considerate like that, despite how he would deny every claims she made on his kindness. but that was beside the point.

                he looked at her as though silently asking if she SURRENDERED, and something inside her sparked with that awakened competitiveness. yinyue, however, got slightly distracted by those sterling silver hues up close. she had always known his gaze was sharp and piercing, but seeing them like this was almost mesmerizing.

                such beautiful eyes.

                unconsciously, the ROVER leaned forward, their noses made a slight contact while her lips barely brushed against the back of his ear. her movement allowed her mouth to ghost over the line of his jaw, carefully reaching closer, close enough for her breath to be spilling warmly just behind his ear. one could almost feel the way her soft lips caressed the rough, defined jawline and skin.

                " calcharo ... " the way she uttered his name was unlike anything she had done before. it almost didn't sound like her own VOICE for a split second there. the tone carried a hint of longing, a deeper pitch that was a cross between a whisper and a growling purr, thick with yearn and unspeakable sensation which would send shivers right down his spine. like a brush of a butterfly's wing ... so, so close —

                — and she pulled away, just enough for her aureate orbs to meet his platinum hues. there was the most subtle hint of sparkles at the corner of her eyes and lips.

                " you won this round. " did he, really ?

ft. sunday and robin as your older siblings (headcannons)

cw: youngest sibling in the fam, gn! reader, family fluff, reader is between ages 12-14, PLATONIC, i went silly on some of them, reader is a halovian but no specified appearance other than halo and wings

a/n’s note: sunday and robin’s relationship mean sm to me its not even funny like HOYO PLZ MAKE THEM REUNITE I WILL SCREAM IF THEY DONT :((( honestly wish i had them as family yk

SUNDAY:

— even though he’s the leader of penacony and doesn’t have time to always spend time with you, sunday always makes up for it when he can.

— if you ever need help with an essay or math homework, he’ll assist you with it. even if it’s fucking 2+2, bro would still help you. heck at this point, he’ll do the whole worksheet for you. sunday loves you that much dawg.

— sunday would be rlly supportive for you, no matter what!! he’d encourage you to pursue your dreams, whether that’s becoming a nameless, a performer for the iris family, or something else entirely, he’ll be there alongside you every step of the way :3

— he’d be a bit strict with you, since you’re still young. would probably give you a curfew for when its night, like making you go to bed at 9pm at least. maybe a little later on the weekends. (does time even exist in the dreamscape i dont remember.)

— if you ask sunday VERY politely, (he’ll still oblige), he’ll sing you a lullaby for when you have trouble sleeping. tuck your blanket under your chin too while he’s at it, hehehe.

— LMAO IDK WHY THIS IS SO FUNNY TO ME but imagine you’re dating someone and introduce sunday to your significant other, I FEEL LIKE HE’D BE POLITE AND ALL THAT BUT AS SOON AS YALL DILLY DALLY OR WTV HE’D BE GIVING THEM SIDE GLANCES EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE.

— like i said, he IS protective of you and will go on a rampage if they’re toxic or hurtful to you. :)

— btw, if you watched robin’s trailer, you can catch a glimpse of sunday polishing her halo. and yes, he would polish your halo too, since you’re also halovian, sometimes even preen your wings too if he’s not too busy.

— if you take band or theatre arts in school or figure skating, acrobatics or just SOMETHING that includes performances, sunday doesn’t give a shit if he has something to do, he will find a way to go to every single one bc he doesn’t wanna disappoint you as an older brother :(

— pats your head. a lot. literally a mom-sibling, you can’t tell me otherwise. will occasionally pick your outfits and asks for your opinion before you go out or make sure your school uniform is crisp and unwrinkled. (if your school has uniforms.)

— overall, sunday is a doting and compassionate older brother. he loves you with his whole being. <3

ROBIN:

— the best, nicest, loving, caring older sister you will ever have in your entire lifespan.

— like sunday, she would help you in any way possible. but she’s not the best when it comes to math homework :(( if you want, she’ll give you a pep talk though!! and trust me, robin gives out the best ad most encouraging pep talks ever like..

— if you do something hella devious, even if its 101% your fault, she’d side with you no matter what. this girl hardly gets to be silly due to her superstar reputation but when she has the chance, plz just let her be. (yall can be devious together.)

— would brush your hair for you!! it doesn’t matter whether you have short or long ass rapunzel-looking hair, she will somehow find a way to style it.

— definitely sang you songs during your childhood, and she still does! robin would hum a tune when you can’t sleep, or you simply just wanna destress and don’t feel like doing anything else. <3

— also like sunday, since she travels a lot, she’ll always make up for the lost time by brinking trinkets and gifts, maybe even bring you along with her during her one of her tours!

— also incredibly supportive in your passions! want to become a performer like her? she’ll be there rooting for you on the sidelines! wanna learn to sing and follow in her footsteps? sure, she’ll gladly teach you for free! (not like you had to pay anyway teehee.)

— robin would be somewhat protective of you as well, just not too strictly. after all, you should experience as much of the outside world as you can. 🎀

— i feel like she’s a horrible money spender.. (same..) if robin sees you glance at a piece of jewelry or smth hella expensive for 0.00001 nanoseconds, suddenly it’s in a gift bag at your desk when you get home from school with a little note from her along with some pastries she thought you’d like.

— if you gift her something, whether its handmade or you bought it with your own money, chances are she’ll keep it for the rest of eternity and repay you with a gift of her choice as well!!

— overall, robin is a sweet and soft older sister and is always there for you, no matter the distance that separates you!

-> let's be for real, i think Sal wouldn't take his mask off BUUUUT let's pretende.. OKAAY...!

-> the kiss was reaaally clumsy but cute :) Sal was literally too stunned to speak and he was just looking at you with wide eyes and red face.

He definitely liked it but wouldn't want to admit it cause he wants to seem all masculine and mighty

Larry Johnson

-> sheesh.. hot. Honestly all i have to say.. Larry knew exactly where to put his hands and how to position his head just the right angel. Very good kisser! Teases you about it all the time obviusly, even tho YOU were the one that made the first move on him. He kissed you a toooons of times after that cause he really really and i mean REAAALLY liked it

Travis Phelps

->i am so sorry to all my Travis fans (including me, myself 😔) but unfortunately Travis wouldn't even let you think about kissing him.. NOW DON'T YOU THINK I'M NOT GONNA FEED YOU ALL!

-> okay soo since he is such a bully and all that, he always seems tough and shit but he likes to be hugged and comforted once in a while too. That's where you come in! You were just comforting him and hugging him telling him it's okay to hsve feelings and kissed him on the forhead! He definitely wasn't expecting it but suprisingly he liked and and yes guess what.. he said do it again I KNOW IM SO CRINGE.

Ashley Campbell

-> OHHH BABEEEE. She has such soft lipsss OMGGG!! When you two kissed it was like match made in heaven!!! She couldn't stop smiling after the kiss, HECK even during the kiss she was smiling the whole time! (those are literally the best kind of kisses omg.). She aaalways leaves her lipstick smudged on your lips and wouln't tell you until you saw it yourself! when she kisses you, she likes to put her hands around your back so she could get as close as possible to you!

NOT SAYING ‘ILY’ BACK TO ZB1

pairing zb1 (ot8) x gn!reader

genre fluff

notes hiiii, thank you sm for liking my works <3 i hope you enjoy !

also going back to bulletpoints, scenarios are so hard to do ☹️☹️

masterlist<3

— zhang hao

he doesn’t realise

he subconscious mind is telling him that you DID respond to his ‘ily’ but you didn’t !

as hao got under the covers, getting comfy

he turned to you and told you he loved you

and instantly fell asleep 😭

you nudge him a bit and he’s startled back awake

“huh? what happened?”

grinning as you found his demeanour a bit funny “i didn’t get to say i love you too.”

knitting his eyebrows together, he responds “yes you did.”

and goes back to sleep 😀

“you told me already, go to sleep.”

— sung hanbin

thought he lost his hearing for a sec

soooo worried

so when he told you he loved you and you just left him there

he instantly comes up to you, grabbing your hands to hold them

hanbin presses a soft kiss to your forehead 🫠

“i love you.” he says with a grin, feeling hopeful this time

but you just stared blankly at him trying your best not to burst into laughter

he frowns and gives you more kisses everywhere on your face until you almost suffocate 🫣

giggling because he was so cute “i love you too”

with a proud smile and a sense of relief “mission accomplished.”

— seok matthew

will not let you go until you say it back

doesn’t matter if he’s gonna be late 😗

he won’t go out without an ‘ilyt’

will annoy the heck out of you until you say it

if that doesn’t faze you

then he starts tickling you and you’re on the floor, suffering

“okay, okay! i’m sorry!”

“uhuh and?” 🤨

“i love you too” you manage to let out as he stops tickling you

“if hanbin scolds me for being late, i’m blaming it on you!”

— shen ricky

at first he thinks he did something

but then hes trying to retrace his steps on everything he did

but he didn’t do anything

so he stops you ✋

“hello? where’s my ‘i love you too?’”

you try to run away from him but he literally tackles you

well, not really but you’re now in a very tight embrace

pls you were almost suffocating from how tight he was hugging you 😃

wanting him to let go, you finally said ilyt

“see, that wasn’t hard at all!”

— park gunwook

so pouty

he looks so sad that it breaks your heart 💔

he might shed a tear

TRIES to give you the silent treatment

but fails everytime

cuz he wants to talk to you every chance he gets

“wook, i’m sorry for earlie-” gunwook cuts you off by shushing you

very obvious pout while crossing his arms

“come on, i’m really sorry. you know i love you.” and his eyes light up ❤️‍🩹

“really? i love you too!”

— kim taerae

real confused

you actually didn’t do this on purpose

so when taerae was quietly following you around

like a lost puppy

yeah, he was following you around for a good 20 minutes without saying anything 😭

you had to ask him what’s wrong

“you didn’t say i love you back”

your mouth forms into an o shape upon realisation 😯

and then you tell him that you love him and he’s finally going back to do his own stuff

“okay, thank you!”

— kim gyuvin

shocked.

how dare you not say ‘ily’ back ‼️

unlike gunwook, he actually gives you the silent treatment

but you just treat him like normal and he gets annoyed that you’re sooo unfazed

gives up on the silent treatment and sits next to you

letting out a big huff while crossing his arms 😤

you think it’s kinda funny seeing gyuvin like this

and you kinda feel bad for doing him like this so you apologise and say you love him

“yeah, you better.”

— kim jiwoong

if it happens once, he won’t think of it that much

twice? he’d think you just didn’t realise

thrice? okay, that’s it 😤

“i love you.” jiwoong says, waiting for your ‘ilyt’

only for you to hum in response and leave him there

goes up to you and grabs your hands “did i do something?”

you weren’t gonna back down from your ‘little’ prank so easily

so you pretended to not know what he’s talking about 🤔

“you haven’t been answering my i love you’s. did i do something?” he repeated

you couldn’t help to laugh, breaking the serious tension in the air “took you long enough.”

“that wasn’t funny!” “neither are your jokes.”

Aurora later met Ten through Taeyong after she heard that they had a performance coming up again for their song that they released together in February before she began working at SM. The boys needed to practice together, which meant that Aurora had to adjust the 127 schedule so that Taeyong didn’t have to miss too much. When it came to Ten, though, it was like love at first sight. He was super nice and very obsessed with Aurora from the get go because he was fascinated by the idea of SM hiring a white foreigner to manage NCT 127. She didn’t know how to handle it all. She was incredibly overwhelmed by his eagerness to be her friend and his love for physical touch and his constant need for attention and her approval. It wasn’t a bad thing! Quite the opposite, in fact… She enjoyed getting to know him in the whirlwind of a week that was filled with his practices with both him and Taeyong.

One night after their practice ran nearly two hours later than it was scheduled to, Taeyong pitched the idea of getting dinner together before going their separate ways for the night. None of them had any other plans because they assumed work would go late, so they said yes. Aurora and Ten only accepted under the single condition that no work talk would ensue. Bundled up under layers of clothes, medical masks, and hats, the three of them ventured out in the city to go nearly thirty minutes out of their way just to get to a chicken and beer joint; but it was so worth it since she loved eating there. It was one of the first fast food chains she discovered in Korea, and she had been obsessed ever since. It wasn’t like it was anything special, she just loved it.

As promised, the topic of work remained off the table throughout the entire night. Instead, the two boys decided to pry into Aurora’s life and what her experience was like living in Korea as a foreigner since Ten wanted to compare and contrast within the context of being an idol himself. She told them about growing up in the States and how Salt Lake was incredibly different from Korea, but she never once got homesick or experienced heavy culture shock, and that might have been in part to her time in college where she got to spread her wings and meet all kinds of people from tons of different backgrounds in order to teach her more about the world. Though it was different and Aurora had a tendency to feel out of place, it was slowly starting to feel like home.

Ten then talked about growing up in different places around the world and how he felt the same about Korea initially, but it just took time for him to get adjusted. Because of the friends he made and working at SM, he was able to find his place. Aurora would too. But what made her choose SM? In fact, what made her pick Korea at all? Ten ordered another round of beer as they listened to Aurora’s long-winded explanation about her work life in Japan which became dull overtime, so she decided she needed a change. She looked around at various jobs in K-Pop and esports but nothing stuck— Heck, she even applied to a K-Pop company which was just around the corner from the restaurant they were in! Honestly, she was relieved that she ended up at SM because she wound up with a diverse group of guys from around the world so it made her life a little bit easier because she could connect with them better.

Taeyong then took the chance to ask her about something that had very obviously been on his mind for a while because he already knew the answer but he wanted to let her know that he knew. So he asked about the video games she liked since she worked in esports. He loved video games— Sometimes when he had free time, he would play games with Haechan and Jisung, so he was curious if there was anything he could ever play with Aurora.

“I play a lot of Valorant, Overwatch, and Call of Duty. I tried League, but I’m absolute shit at it.”

Taeyong laughed. “I can teach you League.”

“I think you’ll want to strangle me if you see how I play.”

“No, no, you should let Taeyong-hyung raise you up to his level so you can play with Haechan one day and make him think that you were born Plat,” Ten joked.

Aurora laughed along. “Deal.”

Just then, Taeyong got a notification on his phone that caught his attention. “Speaking of which… Looks like Hyuck and Ji need a third person to play with them, so that’s my cue to head home. I’ll see you guys tomorrow.” As he stood, he grabbed his bag.

“See you, hyung.” Ten casually dapped up Taeyong before the leader of NCT eagerly left to return home to unwind with some video games. Ten smiled at Aurora next. “It’s late, we should probably call it too.”

“Read my mind.”

“Need someone to see you back to your place?”

Aurora stood with her bag in hand. “I’ll be fine. I’ll send you a text when I’m home so you know I’m safe.”

Ten's smile brightened. “Good.”

“See you tomorrow.”

Aurora’s relationship with Ten naturally developed even more so after that. While her friendship with Yuta was instant and Taeyong's started out professional before becoming stronger, Ten and Aurora started slowly after his first spurt of overwhelming love, so after a longer period of time, they became really, really good friends. He introduced her to his cats when she visited the WayV apartment to take a look at an issue on his PC. He loved his cats so much, and she was excited that they warmed up to her immediately. It felt like fate.

There was one time that Aurora had Ten over to watch a movie since they had been texting all day and she had no plans with anyone else. Once he came over the first time, he never stopped. Most times when they hung out, Aurora continued to invite Ten over whenever he had nothing going on, which was rare, but still. The invitation was always open on her end and appreciated on his. He liked to hang out at her place since she lived alone so he didn’t have to deal with all of the other WayV boys bothering him, and he didn’t have to wrangle the cats— Though he loved them, sometimes he needed to be reminded what life was like without pets.

Their private movie nights didn’t remain private for long, however. After Yuta found out that Aurora was busy on a Friday night, watching a movie with Ten, so she couldn’t go out drinking, he showed up at her door, begging to be included. The two clingiest motherfuckers she ever met kept showing up for sleepovers literally whenever they wanted because she had their Life360’s connected in their friend group, so they always knew when she was home and when she wasn’t. Ten loved sleeping on her couch at first. He’d stop by, eat her food, watch movies with her, and then fall asleep on her couch. But as they got more comfortable with each other, he moved to her bed— And when Yuta found out about that, he started inviting himself over more often so that he could have a piece of the fun. They would literally fight for the bed by tackling each other and playing mind games. There were a few times when she had to give them ice packs because they bruised up their knees and elbows, so eventually she figured that they could compromise. Her bed was incredibly cramped on those nights. It was nice, though, because she liked their company and having someone to hold and someone to hold her, especially when it was established that it was all platonic. It made her feel safe for the first time in a very long while.

Eventually, because the three of them were hanging out so often, and Yuta and Aurora would always bicker back and forth in Japanese, Ten asked them to help him learn Japanese. He knew a little bit but not enough. Aurora couldn’t understand how he wanted to learn another language when he was already fluent— or at least semi-fluent— in multiple languages already! Still, he wanted to be able to keep up with them. Aurora understood his feelings on the matter, so she promised that every time he would come over to her apartment, she would sit down with him and teach him a little bit of Japanese. If Yuta was over for the night too, he would chip in with the occasional comment from the couch while watching anime or doing work on his laptop.

One night, the three of them decided to get incredibly drunk and have a gossip session. They jumped right into it by asking Aurora about her past with guys… Or girls, they didn’t judge!

She rolled her eyes. “I’ve never been with anyone before.” Yes, even though she didn’t have a preference in gender.

Of course both men were incredibly shocked because “HOOWWWWW?!” according to Yuta, who was so drunk he was hanging off of her while acting distraught. Aurora didn’t know how. Life just ended up that way, and she just thought that maybe it wasn’t meant to be.

“Well, I’d do it for you!” he insisted, slurring his words. “Your first time should be with someone good, someone who actually cares about you and not just getting off.”

Ten squinted. “We’ll help you find the perfect person who���s not Yuta. What are we looking for? Guy? Girl? What flavor?”

She pointed at Ten.

“Nani? What do you mean?” Yuta questioned. “You like Ten?”

“What! No! I said I like guys like him, baka!”

“What does that even mean?”

“Slim, flat stomach with a li’l something here and there— Doesn’t matter if it’s abs or a li’l fat to grab onto— small waist, grabbable hips—”

They both burst out laughing, but she was too far gone to stop herself.

“Long hair…” She grinned when she started daydreaming of her ideal guy. “Long, dyed blonde hair looks good on any guy, in my opinion. They have to like wearing androgynous clothing, and makeup, and jewelry.”

“So… femboys,” Ten commented.

Aurora nodded and drank again. “Precisely.”

“Haechan?” Yuta interrogated.

“No.”

“Jungwoo?”

“Mmm… Not him, but of that type, yes. He’s too much of a brat for me.”

The boys both toppled over, laughing.

“Taeyong?”

“Too short for me.”

“Jeno?”

She swooned. “He’s too buff, but damnnnnn…”

They were now on the floor, dying.

“Would you ever date someone you work with?” Yuta asked her, mid-giggle and about to sip his drink once more.

She took a moment to consider it. Ethically speaking, it wasn’t a good idea— Was it illegal? Fuck no. But did that make it right? Not really. It didn’t seem fair to her conceptually to get romantically involved with someone she worked with and try to act like everything was normal, because what would happen if they were to slip up and stop being “normal” and therefore let the relationship get in the way of their work? And don’t even get started on the fans. If Aurora were dating an idol of all people, her life would be fucking over; but then again, who said anything about an idol, maybe she could date an office worker, and that wasn’t so bad, right? No… It was still just as bad. If they were to be an office worker, that meant that they were likely her subordinate, and that would cause too many issues ethically and culturally for her taste. 

“Maybe…” is where she left it at.

It seemed she took too long to reply because Yuta had already put his drink down shortly before he passed out at the table, his head thrown back, his mouth agape, and loud snores coming from his stuffy nose. Aurora giggled. Ten mumbled that they should probably move him to the couch or something, but she told him that Yuta would only be happy if he woke up in her bed— Otherwise they would never hear the end of it. So Ten and Aurora left their alcohol on the table, reluctantly, before working together to hook their arms under Yuta's, and on the count of three they lifted him up. Both of them were too drunk to be carrying him like that, but they really had no choice. With careful, slow steps, they managed to make it to Aurora’s room, and with big huffs, they tossed him onto the bed.

“Why’s he so heavy?” Aurora complained.

Ten flung himself onto the mattress too. “It’s all that muscle.”

Aurora crawled into the middle, allowing Ten enough room to roll over so that they were facing each other with Yuta still snoring peacefully behind her. “Do you think it’s a good idea?”

“What?”

“Dating coworkers?”

“Are you talking about him?” He was referencing Yuta who was starting to drool on himself.

Aurora shook her head. “No.” She slid her hands under her cheek to keep them warm. “I just mean in general.”

“Depends on who it is. An idol? Probably not. A superior? Definitely not. We’re foreigners, Aurora, we need to be more careful than everyone else, so I wouldn’t play with fire, if I were you.”

Aurora let that thought linger. Despite how far she had come with her work, she was still expendable because she was different, so Ten was right that she needed to be vigilant. Focusing on work was the best idea. Even though Yuta and Ten planted the idea of looking for someone in her head, when would she have time for a relationship when she was already married to her work? She practically spent her entire life at the office. She was on tour too often. She spent every single day with a group of obnoxious and sometimes smelly guys, whoever she would end up dating would just be jealous and likely suspicious. Perhaps a relationship would have to continue to wait for her.

After that night, Aurora would always try to find a rhyme or a reason to visit Ten at work whenever she knew he was scheduled to be there. On the rare occasions where Aurora finished her work before Ten, she would find him in one of the smaller practice rooms, dancing on his own, working tirelessly on whatever new choreography he had been given either for WayV or his own personal projects. He loved to dance. It didn’t matter if he had been doing it all day with other members and was worn to the bone— Ten rathered being in a practice room repeating the same dances over and over than doing nothing at home, wasting time. When Aurora would go to visit, he wouldn’t stop what he was doing to acknowledge her until the song was finished and he had a chance to catch his breath. He’d smile, ask about her day, then queue up the next song while she responded. If she sat on the floor, it signified that she had time to stay with him for a while, so he would take that as a sign that he could ask her for help if he needed it; And if she lingered by the door, he would ask for water, which she’d give to him, then they’d say their goodbyes before Aurora headed home.

Spending time with Ten was fun. Aurora got to sit with her back against the mirrors as he did his vigorous routine, and he enjoyed the feedback she had to offer. It was oddly different from helping 127. Those boys were all business when she opened her mouth, because that was the tone she and Taeyong had set— But when it came to Ten, he would tease her, and he’d ask as many follow up questions as he could, and on some occasions, when her advice didn’t pan out, he would make a theatrical show of it just to poke fun.

The best days, though, were when Aurora would catch him just starting a dance challenge for a TikTok and he would ask her to join him. He let her make up choreos with him on the spot. He valued her opinion that much. It always took a couple of hours of hard work just for a stupid TikTok video which was usually less than fifteen seconds, but it always worked out in the end and they had fun working on it because they were doing it together, however they wanted.

“Please, noona!” he whined desperately, tugging on her arm. She continued to adamantly shake her head. “Please! I’d be so funny!”

“No one’s even going to see it.”

“Exactly! Please!”

“Oh, my god, fine.”

Ten cheered and stood upright to prop his phone against the dance mirror before starting the music to show her the dance he had thought up in a dream the previous night. As the song started, Aurora felt her soul die in her chest. Of all fucking things he could dream up at night, why did it have to be a choreography to a Cocomelon song? And why was he forcing her to do it with him?

“See? Easy,” he said with a smile.

She stared at him. “I hate you.”

“I know.” He leaned down to restart the song so that Aurora could begin learning instead of just watching.

An hour later, Aurora had unfortunately memorized an entire dance for a Cocomelon song, and after three attempts to record it on Ten's phone, they got the take he was happy with. Even worse than knowing the choreography at all was that Aurora actually enjoyed it— But maybe that was because he was fun to be around and not the Cocomelon music. Still, it was a memory for them to share, and she made him promise not to show the video to a single soul or else she’d haunt his children and grandchildren. “But Taeyong would love it!” he tried to bargain. Aurora stared him down until he surrendered and she was able to go home.

The following weekend, Aurora didn’t have a ton of work to catch up on, so she decided to make a trip over to COEX Mall to find some gifts for friends and family. She really wasn’t sure she she would be back in the States next, so it was smart to get holiday shopping done ahead of time in case she needed to ship overseas— Which, telling by the boys’ schedules, she would likely be in Korea or on various tours for the next year straight with no chance of taking vacation days… So, gifts it was…

She started with the small tchotchkes littered around the mall in various stores and booths in the hallways. There were plenty of touristy things that she bought for her brother and parents, but then she fell flat on ideas after that. In an attempt to think of anything, she started wandering into shops that were definitely more above her pay grade, but she decided to give it a shot regardless. Jewelry could be nice. She didn’t know who on Earth she would buy jewelry for, but there was no harm in looking around. Honestly, she was just surprised by how cheap even the expensive stuff was. Back in America, they would’ve cost her an arm and a leg, or more, even, but in Korea, things were more affordable, even with her limited salary meant for foreigners. So she made a split second decision that she could perhaps grow to regret. She ended up buying gifts for the 127 boys instead of friends and family— Who the Hell was she going to spoil anyhow?

When Aurora arrived at work the next day, she met with Taeyong in her office early, before anyone else arrived, even the higher ups who had tons more work to do than Aurora and Taeyong combined. They sat in Aurora’s office, sipping on iced Americanos that were brought by Taeyong, talking shop, discussing upcoming projects and what the boys had on their minds. Towards the end, when the office lights started turning on, Aurora pulled out the presents for Taeyong to see.

“What are these?” he asked, setting his cup down on her desk as she put eight jewelry boxes in front of him.

“Necklaces.”

Taeyong furrowed his brows then reached to open one of them. After he took a peek inside, Taeyong immediately closed the box and stared at Aurora with wide eyes. “Where did you get these? Why’re there so many of them?”

“There’s one for each of the boys.”

He looked like he was about to pass out. “These are way too expensive, noona!”

“It’s not as bad as you think, okay? I can still afford rent this month… I might have to skip a few meals before my next paycheck— But that’s besides the point! Listen, I noticed that the Dreamies have their matching friendship rings, and I thought that it would be nice for the 127 boys to have something like that, too.” She started putting the necklaces away. “Since I started working here, I’ve come to recognize your bond. You’re brothers. All of you. And it’s nice to have a reminder of that, you know?” She set the bag in front of Taeyong. “But I know that I’m not close enough to the boys yet for these to be impactful and meaningful like they should be, and to have them wear the necklaces every day. So… I want to gift all eight of these to you so that you can gift the other seven to the rest of the boys.”

He stared at the bag. “Are you sure?”

She nodded with an eager smile. “It’ll only work if their big brother gives them. I want you to take all the credit— I prefer it, actually.”

Taeyong cautiously dipped his hand into the bag and retrieved one of the jewelry boxes. They were both silent as he opened it again, but this time he didn’t get scared and hide it away, instead he unclasped it and put it on himself. Aurora smiled as he said that he liked it.

The necklaces were all identical. They were small emerald shaped green pendants encased in silver plating, hanging on a dainty chain— It teetered on the line of androgynous jewelry, but somehow leaned towards the side of being meant for men.

“This is too much, Aurora…”

“That’s okay. It’s what I want for you guys, so help me out?”

He nodded and twisted the gem to lay flat against his chest. “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

When a notification popped up on Aurora’s desktop, she looked over to see if it needed her immediate attention, which it sort of did. They had practice in about fifteen minutes. The boys were likely already trickling in with their morning coffees and protein shakes, the choreographers would start setting up within the next few minutes too, so perhaps it was time for them to head up too— Mom and dad had to be there to keep the boys in line, after all. Taeyong knew what the ding on her computer meant too, so they simultaneously stood, and as Aurora gathered up her laptop, office keycard lanyard, and coffee, Taeyong grabbed his coffee and the necklaces which he put back in the bag to make it easy to carry. All gentleman-like, he held the door open for her then rushed to press the elevator button too.

“Do you think they’ll like the necklaces?” Aurora asked after scanning her keycard and pressing the 10th floor button.

“Ne, I do.”

That put Aurora’s mind at ease a bit as they started ascending up to the practice floor. Still, he encouraged her by nudging her shoulder with his own. When she smiled, the doors opened to reveal Johnny who was trying to step into the elevator before he realized there were people trying to exit first. He looked at them, shocked, then apologized quickly.

“Where’re you going?” Taeyong questioned.

“I had a coffee delivered,” Johnny replied.

The elevator doors closed behind them, Johnny losing his chance to hurry downstairs. Aurora tried to save it by pressing the button, but it was too late…

“You didn’t get any on your way here?” Taeyong continued interrogating, as if it mattered.

“I got here early so I need a little pick-me-up after the morning I’ve had.”

“How long have you been here…” Aurora asked, surprised. She genuinely thought that she and Taeyong had been there far longer than anyone else had, but Johnny made it seem like he actually beat them there.

Johnny smirked. “No time to rest when there’s lots to do, right?” Though he didn’t explicitly answer her question, Johnny was teasing her in reference to all the times she hit him and the rest of the boys with that same comment whenever they begged her to relax for a bit. He snickered then stepped around Aurora just in time for the elevator to open again for him. “I’ll be back in a few minutes.”

“Don’t be late,” Taeyong warned casually, walking off towards their practice room.

Aurora slowly began following while watching over her shoulder as the elevator doors closed. Was he lying? Was he just teasing her for being a work-aholoic when she always told them to be careful not to overwork themselves… She knew he had a sense of humor but she didn’t know it was like that.

Inside of the practice room, everyone was already gathered and setting up for the long day that awaited them. The choreographers were near the mirrors, discussing the formation maps on their iPads. The boys were sprawled out to stretch. Yuta was running straight at Aurora— She groaned as he crashed against her, throwing his arms around her shoulders and stuffing his face into the crook of her neck. He was always so aggressive with his love.

“What’s that?” Jungwoo asked, pointing to the bag Taeyong was carrying.

“A secret until Johnny-hyung gets back.”

Speaking of which, the door swung open again and Johnny walked in while sipping on his coffee. Since everyone was on time, they were all eager to start. Before then, though, Taeyong kept his promise of revealing his secret, so Aurora shrugged Yuta off then patted Taeyong's shoulder supportively before walking off. Instead of sitting against the mirrors or standing with the boys, Aurora went to sit in the corner with the rest of the managers and assistants who were all busy doing individual work on their laptops. Most of them looked up briefly to welcome her with a quiet, “Annyeonghaseyo,” and a slight head bow, so she returned the favor before getting comfortable to watch the boys who were gathering around Taeyong.

He began to explain that he got them all gifts while handing them out. He gave a whole big speech about how they’d been brothers for years, they were connected more deeply than anyone would ever know or understand, he loved them like family, and he wanted to make sure they were always connected to each other and that the rest of the world knew how much they loved each other.

“You don’t have to put them on immediately,” he said once he caught some of boys jumping the gun by already opening their gifts. “You should take it at your own pace… And when you’re ready, I’ll be happy to see you wearing them.”

The boys began investigating once Taeyong's warning made them beyond curious. As they opened the boxes, their gasps caught the staff’s attention, and Aurora did her best to suppress a smile since she didn’t want to give anyone any indication that she knew about it ahead of time, even though it would have made sense for Taeyong to tell her about it earlier since they were so close. Still, the boys were quick to show their leader their gratitude. Some of the boys immediately gave in to wearing the necklaces— Yuta, Doyoung, Johnny, and Haechan all turned to help each other put theirs on, meanwhile Jaehyun, Jungwoo, and Mark silently decided to wait. They looked embarrassed that they couldn’t put them on so easily like the others. But no one was judging them. Like Taeyong said, it was better to have them handle it at their own pace rather than feel forced to conform and learn to hate the necklaces. To cheer them up, Taeyong even smiled supportively at the three of them.

“Okay, okay, stop being all sentimental,” Jaehyun teased with a fake shiver.

Taeyong nodded. “Let’s get to work.”

One random Friday night, the boys didn’t have any practices or meetings, so they were all sent home to relax and regain for Monday when the cycle would restart. Yuta, of course, jumped at the opportunity to go to Aurora’s apartment— Despite there being no official invite in the first place. Aurora didn’t entirely mind. It wasn’t like she had anything better to do, and Yuta was good company, especially when she didn’t have many other friends who were eager to come see her every chance they got.

Yuta had finally convinced her to start watching One Piece, even though she tried to explain to him many times that starting a show like that with a commitment like that wasn’t smart for them since they hardly had time to watch anime as it was. He insisted that on their off days and when flying around the world, there was plenty of time to get through the show. Yeah, right. Still, it was a show that had been on her bucket list for a while, and she could tell that it made him happy to see her reactions to the key plot points, so she gave in for his sake.

“Can we at least drink?” she begged.

Yuta returned to the bedroom with a beer for him and a glass of wine for her. “Duh.” He handed her glass over then sat down on her right side. “But the second you’re too drunk to remember anything, we’re pausing for the night. There will be a quiz on this show later.”

“I’m terrible at tests.”

“Well, you better focus, then.”

Aurora groaned.

One extremely full glass of wine and four episodes of One Piece later, Yuta paused the show and switched the TV to YouTube so that they could watch silly videos together. Aurora wasn’t drunk, per say. She was somewhere between tipsy and drunk, so just lucid enough to know what was going on, but not enough to stop herself from giggling constantly. They were both laying down on the bed, their alcohol set on the bedside tables, Yuta's arm draped over Aurora’s pillow so that she could rest her head on his bicep.

In the video they were watching, Johnny slipped on the skating rink and tumbled straight into Doyoung which sent both of them onto the ground. The cherry on top was that the editors added that stupid Loony Toons slipping noise. As Yuta looked at Aurora to see if she was laughing just as hard as he was, they found that their faces were extremely close to each other suddenly. Her breath was lingering on his lips, their noses nearly touching, the smell of alcohol on each other’s breaths all too noticeable. They paused for a long moment. A thousand ideas and questions were running through Aurora’s mind, yet she couldn’t make sense of any of it. The alcohol was making her head dizzy, and she was inclined to do stupid shit, like daring to lean in towards Yuta while he did the same until inevitably their lips touched and they began kissing. Yuta took the initiative by rolling onto his side slightly so that he was hovering above her. She kissed him harder, tangling her fingers in his long hair, pulling gently on the strands which earned her a slight grunt from him.

Just then, Aurora was absolutely sure that it would go further— That Yuta would sneak his hands under her shirt in order to show that he wanted to remove it, and she would pull his clean off so that they were even… And after that, it would go until they couldn’t stop. Yet, in the next moment after making such an assumption, they parted. Yuta stared at Aurora for a second. His 127 team necklace dangled just beneath her chin. Her hands retreated from his hair. Then he rolled before laying down beside her, going back to watching the video on the TV casually.

They were both silent until the end of the video.

“Yeah, I think we’re just friends,” Aurora said.

“Agreed,” he said quickly.

“Wasn’t bad, though.”

He laughed. “Not at all.” He looked at her again. “I’ll always make out with you for fun, just let me know.”

She kissed him. “Aishteru, Yuta.”

“Watashi mo.”

Over time, the boys slowly all began wearing the necklaces on their own terms. Mark was first. He showed up one day to practices with the necklace hanging over his chunky-knit sweater, and no one said a thing about it or even acknowledged it aside from Taeyong who shot him a grateful smile. Jungwoo and Jaehyun took a little longer to come around. However, once they did come around, there was a sense of relief amongst all eight of the boys, and there was excitement in the way they teased each other for how they wore the necklaces or if they forgot them one day. Everyone seemed happier.

Aurora noticed it because their tour was coming up, and while they were busy preparing for that, they were also participating in a lot of scheduled promotions for their album and to get people to buy tickets to their shows, and like Aurora, the fans were taking note of the necklaces under the boys’ clothing. Aurora spent hours reading Tweets at night in her apartment with a glass of wine about how and why they started wearing the necklaces. The general theory seemed to be that Doyoung bought the necklaces for everyone. That made Aurora laugh.

Of course interviewers eventually asked about the necklaces because the fans were dying to know the story behind it, and Doyoung was the first one to finally confess with a toothy grin while him and Jungwoo took turns explaining that they were gifts from Taeyong. In the meantime, Taeyong was looking at Aurora off camera with a look that cried out for help. Aurora just smiled and gave him a thumbs up for encouragement to keep it up. It was okay to lie about that one thing. He had her unconditional approval, he just needed to keep it up.

I love the Vengeance saga sm….

so here are my thoughts

NOT SORRY FOR LOVING YOU:

This was SO pretty. Wangui has such a beautiful voice and she added so much depth to the character. But i still HATE Calypso. They could never make me like you Calypso. I liked How Jorge really made her seem like she just never learned how it was wrong to expect love in return regardless of circumstance. Especially the part “Was cast away when I was young

Alone for a hundred years

I had no friends but the sky and sun

So when you washed ashore

I thought for sure that you were my dream come true”

It really did a good job at showing she never learned because she never got a chance to learn these things.

DANGEROUS:

HECK YES HERMES!!! He was so so iconic and I loved how we was just partying while Ody was fighting for his life. My favorite part was defined the Wing Bag. Especially the winions. The melodies just seemed so much darker and serious then the playful tone of Keep Your Friends Close. I also loved the Athena reference at the end. I honestly hope Odysseus doesn’t learn it was her, it would make it so much more tragic.

CHARYBDIS:

This was the song I was looking forward to the most and I was not let down! The musical storytelling was so so good! Everything about it that I imagined is practically exactly what was on the animatic. Also extra points to part of it being done by @anniflamma (i’m not even gonna try to lie, Anni is my favorite Epic Animator) I LOVED the final verse. It was so pretty and Jorge portrayed the Longing of Odysseus SO WELL. I also adored the expectation diversion leading into…

GET IN THE WATER:

First off the Intrumentals starting the song were BEAUTIFUL!!! The piano was so striking and i loved it! Steven Rodriguez is genuinely PERFECT for Poseidon. I’m not gonna lie Poseidon is my favorite Greek God(Blame PJO) and Ruthlessness is actually the song that got me into EPIC. So it was amazing to hear him again. My Blood ran cold during the “Ruthlessness… Is Mercy Upon… Ourselves” part and I loved the overlapping vocals of the “Die”. And because it’s a bossfight it just has to end with making me cry. The “spirits” of Odysseus’s comrades was so pretty and I think it was my favorite(besides love in paradise ofc) of the “Heartbreaking remembering comrades” moments.

600 STRIKE!!!

1st of holy shit the Wind bag is such a cool Bossfight instrumental. It was so freaking cool(I love all the Wind parts in EPIC). I was a little disappointed by the Visuals, no disrespect to the artist at all! But i just thought the 3d was a little jarring. I truthfully think it would have been a little better if it was 2d. Enough of visual art talk though MUSICAL art talk time! I LOVED the chanting throughout the first-half. It was such a great(I think) wrap up to the Crews story and it also sounded awesome.

600 STRIKE: PART 2(that part)

Steven Rodriguez’s voice is really hot. I just had to get that out of the way. But in all seriousness this is my favorite moment of the Saga. I don’t think 600 strike was my favorite song, that title goes to Get in the Water, but 600 strike is a close 2nd solely based on the epicness of this moment. The way my heart just stopped when Odysseus said “Exactly” was just something I’ll never get over. Also I’m weird and i loved hearing Poseidon in pain.(I like my fav. characters to suffer). Also the overlapping vocals(can i even call poseidon’s part vocals it’s just him screaming in pain) was PHENOMENAL! I especially loved the 2nd “OOoohhhh” I saw someone say that Poseidon likely regenerated around the trident before it was pulled out and that’s engraved in my brain now.

And hot Take.

I think that Poseidon was actually ASKING Odysseus how he sleeps at night. During Monster Ody says “Is he scared that he’s doing something wrong” and I actually think Ody was right. Poseidon’s “I can’t” during Get In The Water seems genuine. I don’t know if it was because He literally couldn’t forgive Ody because of what Ody did, or if He’s is actually just trying to “keep us in check so we respect him, and now no one dares piss him off”. This may just be me over-analyzing/trying to sympathize my fav character but does Poseidon actually wonder if he’s doing something wrong.

And Finally, NEXT TO MY WIFE was actually so FRAKING cold. If someone said that to me i’d be devastated.

Ultimately the Vengeance saga was probably my 2nd favorite saga(after wisdom i just adore god games) Jorge did an AMAZING job with it and I’m so excited to see how much more a monster rawr rawr rawr Ody becomes.

I hope you enjoy my thoughts (:

Okay i have been thinking about this one for a while. @misteria247 have EVEN MORE brain juice. Everyone's all about Bill manipulating Ford,isolating him from his loved ones,et cetera et cetera. But no one ever talks about the fact that Ford was actually manipulating Bill too without realizing it. Why do you think he was worshipping and praising the guy constantly?,because he too wants to keep the triangle at his side just like Bill wants his genius at his side. While yes that may be out of admiration,Ford also knew full well that his muse only did things for him if he gained his favor and so he kept praising him and worshipping him just to make the isosceles give him a break from the portal or to let him spend time with Fiddleford. Ford was *ALSO* using Bill for his goals,as the main reason why he made a deal with him in the first place was for the triangle to help him gain the recognition he believed he deserved. Heck,i think that Ford probably experimented on Bill a few times but the triangle didn't say anything despite the act being painful because he fully trusts his fucked up genius. Bill may be manipulative and terrible,but Ford is too,in a way. He wasn't doing it on purpose,he was probably doing it subconsciously. These two are fucking horrible and perfect for each other at the same time in the best way. I hate them sm.

characters: reo mikage, kenyu yukimiya, shouei barou

content: part 3 of weird/bad habits they have. reader wears glasses in reo's, also a bit of cursing (reo), aged up (yukimiya) and yukki can drive lol, barou is a secret swiftie in denial.

ari's note: i looove yukki sm he's my second fav after nagi omg i love yukimiya i love him sm he is so underrated <3333

part 1. part 2.

reo mikage: eating pizza with cutlery

"hey, i'm hungry." reo said as he rolled on the bed, landing next to you. he lay on his tummy and rested his face on his palms, looking up at you as you did work on your laptop beside him on your bed.

"hm, me too." you replied, feeling your stomach grumble a little.

"whaddya wanna eat?" he asked, sitting up cross-legged, resting his chin on your shoulder as an attempt to peek at the work you were doing.

"it's up to you. i'm still busy, so you can choose." you mumbled, pushing up your glasses and continued typing away on your laptop. reo kept quiet until he decided on what he wanted to eat.

"let's eat caviar."

"what the fuck? that's so expensive, reo." you shook your head, your attention now on reo after he suggested that ridiculously expensive food for a normal lunch.

"what? i had it for dinner a few nights ago with my parents." he said, confused. you sighed. he was from a rich family, after all. of course he had fancy meals 3 times a day.

"we can eat caviar." he pouted.

"no."

"yes."

"we should save caviar and any other fancy meal for an important day; like our anniversary, or our birthdays." you suggested. you couldn't imagine eating things like caviar, foie grass and other expensive meats on a daily basis. reo hummed in reply, "alright, fine. caviar is good though."

"let's just eat pizza, is that okay?" you asked and reo nodded excitedly.

"yes! i haven't had pizza in sooooo long!"

you rolled your eyes playfully and chuckled. he had steak and other fancy foods everyday, but something as simple and delicious as pizza was a rarity to him.

you pulled out your phone and ordered some pizza to be delivered to your house and continued with your work. reo stayed with you the entire time, changing his position ever so often; from laying his head on your lap, or wrapping his arms around your waist.

soon, the doorbell rung and reo went to answer it. the pizza had arrived. you asked him to bring the pizza to your room and that you'd eat there. reo took quite awhile though. did he trip and fall on his way or something?

you were completely immersed in your work in your laptop, until you heard the clinking of cutlery and plates.

"reo?" you called, looking up from your laptop.

he emerged from the door, holding the pizza box and 2 plates, along with forks and knives.

"reo, why the heck did you bring the fork and knives? and what's with the plates?" you questioned, puzzled.

"what? it's to eat the pizza with, of course." he replied nonchalantly and settled on your bed.

he placed a slice of pizza on his plate and begun cutting it with his fork and knife. he was eating the pizza like how he'd eat steak. you watched silently, mouth parted as you watched your purple haired boyfriend continue with his meal.

"y/n? come on, eat up! i'll cut up a slice for you!"

you couldn't say anything and reo took the silence as an 'okay, i allow you to cut up my pizza.'

you didn't have the heart to tell him that pizza could just be eaten with your barehands just like that, and that there was no need for plates or cutlery. you'd have to teach him about the way average people do, and how it's different from the way the rich do.

kenyu yukimiya: speeding up when driving over a bridge

the day had finally come for the long awaited road trip you and your boyfriend, yukimiya, have planned! it was a day trip on the road to a resort somewhere very far from where the two of you lived. it was a 24 hour car ride, but you didn't mind it since you would be with yukki throughout. he's gotten his license a few months ago and he drives really well!

he rarely gets road rage, and he knows when to slow down or speed up. he would drive you to school, or anywhere in general and it was perfect since he'd let you handle the music. you knew this road trip with him would be perfect. nothing sounds better than being in a car with your loved one, music filling your ears, the ac turned on and just being in the lovely presence that yukki radiated.

everything was going fine. you were 2 hours in the trip and had made 2 stops at previous gas stations to get food and water, as well as use the bathroom and get a stretch break from being seated in the car.

soon, you looked up ahead and noticed a bridge. with water underneath it. it was like a reservoir and there were many other cars driving across the big bridge. you could see tall buildings in the distance across the bridge and it excited you that you would be driving past a nearby city!

the stereo was playing your shared playlist with yukki and he was humming along to the song while you told him some funny stories.

upon reaching the bridge, however, you almost. almost. met your death.

okay, that may be an exaggeration. but it truly felt like you almost saw the light.

yukki, who was driving at a speed of 50km/h, suddenly increased it to 102km/h, as he sped across the bridge.

"it was so funny, i almost died of laughter- h-hey! yukki?!" you jolted as he suddenly sped up halfway through one of your stories.

"hold on!" he replied, pushing his glasses up and running a hand through his hair.

"y-yukki!? what's gotten into you! oh my god, be careful! you almost hit that truck!" you screamed a bit as he accelerated even more and more. you didn't even dare to look over to his side to see what his speed was.

it already felt like he was going at 1000km/h, even though that was not possible, but it really felt that way. you could hear the zooming of your car tires on the road, all the other cars passing by you swiftly. if the car windows were open, you're sure your hair would be flying everywhere.

he was changing lanes quickly, going left, right, then left again, then staying in the middle, then going left and right and so on. he was dodging all the cars in his way, speeding up even faster as he did so.

"yukki! oh my god, slow down! you're gonna get us killed!" you wailed, clutching the pillow on your lap and holding it tight. yukki showed no signs of slowing down. his face remained calm and focused as he continued his pursuit.

he might as well become a race car driver if he wants to drive at this ridiculous speed, you thought.

as soon as the car got off the long bridge, yukki slowed down to the normal 50km/h speed once more.

"you idiot! what was that all about? fantasizing being a race car driver, yukki?!" you scolded, catching your breath and wiping the beads of sweat that had formed on your forehead. it was so intense, the ac was turned on yet you were sweating and panting from that drive.

"race car driver? i was just driving normally, silly." he chuckled, pulling over at the nearest gas station and parked the car. you had never, ever, seen yukki drive at anything more than 80km/h.

"you've never drove that fast before..." you whined, meeting his eyes.

"yeah? that's 'cause we've never had to drive over a bridge back at home." he chuckled light-heartedly and pushed his glasses up.

you looked at him, confusion written all over your face, "what's that supposed to mean? why do we need to speed up over a bridge?"

"in case it collapses." he answered like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

you sucked in air through gritted teeth and frowned, "you stupid four eyes."

he tilted his head as you got out of the car, walking to the bathroom, leaving a confused yukki.

"what? y/n! are you not anxious that the bridge might fall!?" he called out from behind you, locking the car and chasing after you.

shouei barou: using songs as timers

"hm? not going to the gym today?" you asked as you saw your boyfriend still at home. it was 11am and normally by now, barou would be at the gym until 1pm.

he shook his head, "nah, decided to stay home and work out instead. i'm gonna start now, actually."

you shrugged and gave him a thumbs up. you left him to do his workout in peace so you went to the kitchen to make something to eat. however, you started hearing familiar lyrics and a tune...

they sounded like... shake it off? by taylor swift?

you thought you were going crazy and was just hallucinating her voice in your head until you realised the song was actually playing. leaving the kitchen, you followed the muffled tune of the song which led you to the living room where barou would be working out.

and there, you saw the music video playing on the tv, along with barou lifting weights and doing squats as taylor continued singing in the back.

"sho? i didn't know you listened to taylor swift..." you choked down a laugh at the thought of barou singing to taylor's songs.

"what? i don't!" he replied mid-squat. "just usin' her songs as a timer. once she reaches the second verse i'll switch to another workout." he explained, red forming on his cheeks and ears.

"heh, whatever you say. nothing wrong with enjoying taylor, though." you giggled, whispering that last part but just loud enough for him to ear. he clicked his tongue.

"tch, whatever. she's okay."

you waved your hand, dismissing the topic and retreating back to the kitchen. as you cooked a meal, you heard different songs from taylor swift playing. maybe he really is a fan.

end.

hey queens sorry for the late upload😍 this took awhile cus my back really hurts when typing on my laptop omd so i just kept putting this on hold but here it is!!!

[jaylaxies]

Hiii I'm like new to your account and I've a fic of yours which i can't seem to remember the name of (im sorry) and i really liked it. The way you write is immaculate. Okay now I know how this sounds, I've read a lot of fics and I hate HATE how they have grammar errors. Like I'm not talking about using 'there' instead of 'their' or 'was' instead of 'were' or something, I'm talking about misspelling the members' names, using censors like '$' or '0' for seemingly casual works, using exclamation marks when it's not even needed. Like I get it if you misspelled a word, it happens, forgotten to add a comma, or something, but repeatedly writing 'Heesung' instead of 'Heeseung' like NO. That's a red flag for me 🙋‍♀️. And the best part? YOUR FIC HAD NONE OF THOSE 🤸‍♀️🤸‍♀️ NOT A SINGLE COMMA MISSING, NOT ONE SPELLING ERROR. I'm not a native English speaker, heck I've never even been around someone who's one, but I know good writing when I see it. 😐. You should consider seeing that as a profession, because you write better than some authors who've published actual hard cover books (colleen hoover i'm looking at you). Like it doesn't seem like fanfiction anymore when you write it (it's a good thing) , and that's on reading one fic. The purpose of this post was to ask for some fic recs from you (that you've written) and ig it got too long lol. That's it and have a nice day/night (idk)

Also idk if you do this but can I be 🧗‍♀️ anon please? (I said please)

ohmygod hihi anonnie 😭 the things you listed out?? like yes those things bother me a lot too im not gonna lie, if i see someone writing heesung instead of heeseung it just pisses me off for some reason?? but thank you sm for your kind words aaa english isn’t my first language so i’m still not very confident about my writing but i do wanna write more, and this honestly made my dayy thankyou so much anonnie 💗 here are some recs:

conflict of interest — heeseung

rewrite the starts — jay

rule number one: don’t fall in love — jake

roman holiday — jake

a reunion to remember — sunghoon

Hey, in TD Leo is a trans man right?

And considering the fact that the mad dos refer to him as their brother that mean he came out before he disappeared...

So two questions: 1. When did he came out to his family,(will you do a mini comic?🥺🥺🙏🙏)

2. What was his "birth" name (Venus?😋)

Btw I absolutely love your art, comics and the fact that you make doodles for even the smallest questions, so thank you💕💕

Yep! Leo in Tentative Devotee is transmasc! (maybe not fully a binary man, but uses the term man still)

1. There will actually be a very brief section in a main comic part for a later story! We're not close to the part where I want to bring it up yet, but for now, a very abridged version of how it went:

Leonardo came out to Donnie first in mid 2012, over a year before he went missing. By the twins' birthday, he was out to everyone.

And yes, Leo's deadname is 'Venus' in this AU! The 'Leo was once Venus' headcanon lives rent free in my brain.

(Also, thank you sm!!! I really love making art for this AU and it's generally hecking fun!! I'm glad you like my stuff!)

yes....hello..u may call me sugugagger anon (lmfao) but i just wanted to drop by and tell u how much I ADORE your fics and they're what gave me the spark to write jjk fanfic at all. i feel like u and i are on the same wavelength on a lot of stuff (my delulu self liiiives for geto / non sorcerer reader ok). i also really love your gojo fics, particularly the monster you know because i LIVE for creepy satoru sm. like. heck.

i would love to hear more about any aftermath ideas you might have had for your fic exceptions, which is one of the first fics i read in the jjk fandom!! i'm way too hella shy to come off anon but just know your writing is *chef's kiss*

ahhhhh I’m so glad you liked exception!!! It’s one of my favorite fics that I’ve ever worked on.I feel like I typically make my mcs non sorcerers. Just regular people living regular lives. I’m not a big fan of sorcerer MCs. With very few exceptions, most of my MCs are damsels in distress. soooo for that fic the mc gets pretty much threatened into being Suguru-chans precious house pet!!! I feel like since the mc meet Suguru pre-him losing his mind….the mc feels a bit of sympathy that turned into slight stolkholm syndrome. Not exactly romantic love, but more like pity-fear that keeps the mc in line. Eventually the mc would accept that you’re nothing more than a cult leaders pretty trophy wife and he’s pretty well off so it’s not all that bad…

at least nanako and himiko are happy. Despite your fear of Suguru… the girls make things a tiny bit more bearable. Also you won’t be expected to turn into Suguru’s breed-mare or anything mostly cuz he’s already a happy dad of two and also….a part of him is somewhat worried that any kids he has with you might turn out to be non-sorcerers. He might love you but you are the ONLY exception. Any potential kids, that are non-sorcerers, he won’t rlly tolerate.

How would you describe your friend's art/writing? (E.g.: scenario, food, memory, etc.)

OMGGG ANON THANK YOUUU LET ME SMOOCH U RNNN <3333

But i'm gonna twist the question a bit since i haven't read everyone's work so yeah 🥹 i'm gonna describe the way they talk or how they 'feel' like to me lolll

@beloved-brynn: (<- my dear sweet hallow) whenever brynn is talking about something, it could either be the most mindblowing thing ever or the funniest thing ever 😭 i love her sm (platonically) since she's my first ever mutual and the first ever person to just... kinda welcome me to tumblr (i can hesr her in the distance saying smth smth abt i traumatized her despite the warm welcome- /silly) also she's good at giving advices! She's somebody who would cofmort you in an objective but warm way while also try to joke around so you won't feel like you're being nagged at (good grief, i cried more while she did that lol) ALSO A SIMP FOR DIMITRIII ‼️‼️

@meimeimeirin: tbh rin's writing or way of speaking is so so uniquely her that even if she tried to mask it up, i could guess that it's her 😆 she's an amazing mutual that i have no clue how the heck did we even be friends and be close like this??? Is it the same thing like how me and brynn get close- i gave you a drawing- anyway, she has a very elegant way of doing things, and especially when she starts to ramble or write about something that she loves! It's always so lovely reading her posts <3 btw rin, keep a chicken head with you always, yeah? 😋

@leftdestiny-posts: NOW THIS IS AN ENIGMA BECAUSE I HAVE NO CLUE HOW DID WE ACTUALLY BECOME MOOTS????? Shiro, did u just somehow in someway adopt me- 😭 but anywayyyy, shiro's way of talking is so so so soft and cute and warm and it makes me wonder how the heck did they mask their craziness so good like that- /smacked sorry sorry, enough jokes, what i meant to say is that shiro is such a down to earth person, and honestly i could see them go "wah, the clouds are really pretty today~ the flowers too~~" their writing or talking style has that vibe to me! It's so warm and fuzzy to me 🫠 i feel so comfy with themm 💗💗

@a-bookworms-teashop: i took a liking to one of her series and ever since then, i am a fan of her works!! I like to leave comments and just yk... support her works! Suddenly, bam! She dm'ed me or smth and we just kinda talk 😆 i love when she goes to ramble about her works because it shows how much love and effort she pours into each and every one of them!!! Im still waiting for an update to that series hiks but in any case, her other works sre also a masterpiece! Example? The yandere ceo one! It's so interesting and honestly bae, i would read every chapters 😻 i mean i already did, but eh YEAH READ EM GUYS!!!

@jessamine-rose: bae jess, ur works are amazing pookie, i once read one of ur work before eventually falling in love with how u write but i forgot which one was it... (it was a long time ago) was it abt capitano...? I'M SORRY I FORGOT HDBSHSJSJ 😭😭😭 but anyway, jess has the mom vibe that it always made me think of those asian moms (I'M ASIAN- THE TRAUMA IS THERE- /silly) who would hit their kids with sandals and be "i told you don't be like that!" >:o also her way of speaking and the amount of kaomojis she used is so so her that i would just imagine her every time i see one of those kaomojis 😆💗 please keep using em, i love ittt <333

@harmonysanreads: i simp for u. Yes, you read that right, my friends... I SIMP FOR HARMYYYY (shoo shoo eun- /silly) 😻💗 harmy has a very distinctive vibe and personality despite being similar to rinrin, and uhh how do i describe it...? It's like talking with a mom figure (no harm, i don't see u as a mom figure-) who knows you so well!! Her way of talking is so elegant, but it's not the warm-like elegant! It's like seeing a queen (?) and you can't help but to be mesmerized by her mannerisms! I also love the way she can form her words, they're always so thoughtful and really straightforward in a way lolll (she's my argue buddy too- anyway prince hirang 👎 /silly)

@navxry: NAVI ACTS LIKE THE MOM FRIEND!! Not really the mom mom friend, but navi is our server mom 💗 they take care of us and sometimes pop in and say either the most horrendous down bad thing ever for female game characters (while im like "oh yeah so true lmao" but i don't usually pop in and say that) or they'll help us around the server because apparently most some of us are not pretty... tech-savvy (me included HAHAHHA) navi is such a mood sometimes and i absolutely love them for ittt 🫶 u go girl (/gn) be as silly as you wsnt for your fics, or in other words, kill em all- *cough* i mean what

@calxlu: a fellow infp who really loves albedo 😆 i love when one time i made a bedo art for them and they reblogged it so many times,,, it made me super happy and super proud that the art made them that happy 💗 anyway, vivi talks similarly like me methinks but like ummm how do i say it? Vivi is like cuter...???? IDKK HAHAHAJDJ- um, moving on 😆 i love it when vivi describes or tell smth because it could either be the most cutest thing ever or the funniest thing ever (i still remember that grandma comment pls 😭) anywayyy i hope your life has been less stressful!!! Also will be hoping that ppl won't bother you especially when you don't want to get bothered 🫂

@teabutmakeitazure: ZURIII MY BELOVED 🙌 HELLO HI <333 muach muach i hope you're doing well when you read this post /gen /pos !!! When zuri comes in the server and say smth, i will always imagine someone wesring a glasses, talking in such a monotone voice but tries to appear caring and sweet because YES they are actually really sweet and very much loveable and smoochable <3 it's just how you 'feel' like to me, so don't mind em too much loll 😆💗 also, i see that zuri and speckled can match each other vibe so well and it makes me think that they'll be such a great and cute duo together sbsnsjkssk

@vennnnn-diagram: VENNNNN OMG MY PARTNER IN CRIME 😻💗‼️ (<- we never did any crime other than bully brynn... i think-) ven is so funny and chaotic that it makes me wanna smooch em every time they appear <3 how do i explain this... uhhh, like ven always seems to be the silliest person ever whenever they talk in the server, but GUYS they're like really thoughtful and so overall nshdjisks i can't describe it but i will fight anyone who diss or insult ven /hj kinda srs actually ✨️ ven, if u think that being silly feels weird out of nowhere, bae we're all weird, so dw abt it 😆 im also very silly, so we can be silly together!!! ALSO ONE IMPORTANT FACT, ven is our music genius 🙌‼️ i'm so serious abt wanting to hear ur music for an hour straight-

@stickyspeckledlight: speckled...... well, uh, the word 'silly', 'random', "what in the world-" as a person fr 😆 i also just kinda deem her as the gamer pro in our server and well.... i gotta say she's real good when gaming (<- has never seen her gaming stream) BUT LIKE WHATEVER THOSE GAME TERM STUFF, SPECKLED KNOWS IT ALL ‼️‼️ like whenever she said oh this and that about hsr or genshin, i'd be "oh yeah so true" despite me not understanding her words (sorry yall i'm not a gamer 😭) alsoooo it's pretty noticeable, but uhh speckled (and zuri) is aventurine lover and she's pretty crazy abt him *cues me looking at her fics* keep going bestie 🙌 you (and zuri) are our aventurine truther lol

@ainescribe: AINE MY SPOUSE ✨️ THE LOVE OF MY LIFE /pos 💗💗 ainneee, one of our talented super amazing artists in the hostelry 😻 thought despite me saying that aine is the loml, we haven't talk or interact much, but i know that she's a sweetheart hehe 🫶 aine has a very bubbly way of talking, she likes to yap yap like eun especially if it's about.... uh lores? Idrk the kind of stuff that aine likes to talk about, but it's always fun to hear her (and eun) yap ‼️ also, i can't describe it but she makes me wanna smooch her but also nom her (it's just cuteness aggression-) ALSO I HAVE TO SAY IT AGAINNN, HER ARTS ARE REALLY PRETTYYY 💗🙌 LIKE 100/10 PRETTY ✨️

@lucienbarkbark: girl, idk what goes on in your mind but you're a mood 😆 i am always so surprised whenever rika appears and say something, it's too straightforward but i love her for it <333 she seems like someone who would just do whatever she wants, and i would totally support her for it 💪 rika and her... 66 or more men that she would (respectfully saying) sleep with 🔥🔥🔥 HAHAHHAH THE LIST IS SO LONG AND LIKE 😭😭 i can never not laugh whenever i remember it hdjdjsjwkw pls never change your frank and honest attitude, i love it 🫶 btw, uh, pls have some rest bestie 😭 like an actual rest and also a mental rest 🫂 wishing the best for you rikaaaa >:o

@mixed-kester: esther! While i may not know much about you, but i KNOW one thing!!! It's that she's a really great artist 😻 i'm telling yall to check her arts because (from my opinion) her art style looks like one you would find in a cute short comic (that i would totally devour-) AND YEAH she's just really sweet yk 🥺 also esther talks in a very direct way that it makes you want to just know what's up inside that head of hers 😆 she's also part of the 'would eat mochi 😋' gang and i just.... have to accept that....... anyway LOVE HER 💗‼️ please be more braver and accepting of your feelings, you're precious and worth it, okay? We love you, and i hope sincerely that YOU love YOURSELF 🙌

@euniveve: OHOHOHO OUR RESUME DESTROYER HERE /silly ✨️ jokes aside, i think me, jess, and shiro would say "what can't eun do atp" if we're talking about eun 😭😭 wdym she can write amazing fanfics, great artist, good at debating, a highschool athlete, a student council president- LIKE EUN WHAT THE HECK DID YOU NOT DO???? Is it the intj in you- /silly LMAO anyway, all that aside, eun talks in a very pookie way, so full of.... love (especially if she's talking with harmy) and she would totally yap yap abt smth altho sometimes she's a bit direct about stuff (not in a harsh way tho) all in all, i hope you're not too harsh on yourself 💗 OH AND i love how confident you are!! You know that you're amazing, and i think that's great pookie 🫶

@fishanonishere: FISHHHHH 🫂 the 'albedo' in my life LMAOOOO 😭 they're so cute i wanna smooch them fr ✨️ they like to yap about their works and honestly yap more bestie (I HAVEN'T ANSWERED THEIR DM IN DISCORD BUT YEAH YAP MORE BESTIE 😭😭) they have a distinct way of talking and it's hard for me to describe it, but imagine albedo talking with such an interest while also keeping it low with how monotonous his face is and you're a bit confused whether he's excited or chill with it 😆 fish is also an amazing artist, their art style is very very 😋💗 yeah i'd eat all of em HAHAHAHA anyway fishhh, i hope you keep being 'you'!! It's always fun talking to you, but i think my energy is just not that big enough for us to keep talking for so long 😭🙏

Swap AU Aleheather post!!

I love love LOVED (agh I can't say it enough sorry!!) @swinginspaceagebachelorette 's au of TDWT (≧∇≦) ʃ♡ƪ !! It's specifically a swap au between Alejandro and Sierra, and the way she writes Alejandro is just so endearing to read! He's like a golden retriever that has random knowledge! The fact she lowered the psycho-stalker quality is what helped endear his swap personality especially!! I think I already pestered her in her comment section about his personality and appreciating the heck out of her writing there 😹 I doodled a bunch since I just loved her au sm!!!

But before I start dumping doodles I made from the fic, the link to her fic is here ! Make sure you have an AO3 account before you read of course though!!😸

NOW FOR THE DOODLES MAUHAHAHAHHAHA

This is a scene from the fic ♪(^∇^*)! It's from one of the most recent chapters (chapter 29)

Zoom out of the scene lol

I still find it funny and shocking that Heather is able to support the weight of a man over 6 ft on her head 🙀Her head's gotta be made of STEEL! Super scary just how strong it is! Steel is my only conclusion for her head strength.. (Yes I'm not going to acknowledge the shocked Gwen, her issue of the day! she partook in cheating like a gross person and in great irony considering her s1 ordeal with Heather & Trent (* ￣︿￣))

ANYWAYS ONTO THE HC SECTION!!

These hcs are Aleheather centric like the one above since they're cutie patooties in the fic AND it's an Aleheather fic what do u want from me..(～o￣3￣)～

I think it'd be a nice off screen past time that Alejandro info dumps to Heather and she's at least partially listening! The dynamic kind of reminds me of Phineas and Ferb's parents in a sense where the dad infodumps to the mom and she just listens + enjoys it(❁´◡`❁) I LOVE that dynamic btw! It's such an endearing dynamic that to find it in my fav tdi ship is so sweet (to me at least!)

Onto my next hc!

Since Alejandro is taking the place of Sierra in this au, I thought it'd be sweet that he also adopted her hobby of glitter glue crafts. You know who also has a hobby of glitter glue crafts?! HEATHER💥

I'd think in one of Alejandro's off screen infodumps, he talks about his hobby of glitter glue crafts, the techniques and brands related to the aforementioned to Heather! She'd slip out some of her knowledge and love for it, OR she immediately starts rambling back about glitter glue crafts!!

THAT'S RIGHT BABY ( •̀ ω •́ ) !

Swap!Aleheather bonding over GLITTER GLUE CRAFTS 💥💥Ugh just how much more cute can you get with that headcanon?!

Another hc incoming!!

Since Heather always has her hair up in a ponytail in the main series, I thought a nice way to show her trust is with her hair! In general her hair has always been something special to her, that's why she fought for a wig in season 2. Since an AMAZING amount of value is placed on her hair, her showing her trust to Alejandro through her hair would be a nice way to visually show she trusts him! Alejandro basically the only genuine bond she's shown to make in the series, canon and in the fic, so I think the swap hcs make it just all the more sweet (/▽＼) !! In a way, since to Swap-ejandro Heather is just a celebrity crush, this sort of interaction deepens their relationship and his feelings beyond just a celeb crush (❁´◡`❁)

NOW FOR THE LAST HC!

This one isn't an Aleheather hc, but moreso a hc focused on Swap-ejandro's appearance! I think that as a trade off, he's not as physically built as canon Alejandro but instead taller compared to him (which is scary considering canonically Alejandro is 6 ft..) Since he's in the place of Sierra in this AU, he probably has enough strength to fight off baboons, he probably just has a hidden build! In general, Sierra and Alejandro in this AU had their skills and personalities swapped, so as a result their backstories technically were too with some small tweaks! I think this AU has been fun to make a bunch of hcs in, congrats if u got to the end of me convulsively info dumping about my hcs on the awesome au (lll￢ω￢) !

Full credits to the author man! She's mega talented! Please support @swinginspaceagebachelorette's work and any future works from her! o(〃＾▽＾〃)o

Signing off, hope this reaches the right audience!

[everything-laito]

Are there any canon clues to how old the boys are? Sorry if this has been asked before. I’ve seen people theorize a few decades or a few centuries but I’m not knowledgeable enough about all the games to say what sounds right.

AH YES !!! THE AGE OLD AGE QUESTION

A few decades is crazy, it's definitely more than a century at LEAST. I say at least a few centuries but then Shu is considered to be like 1000 years old (said in a drama CD)

But oh lord the lore has been so inconsistent with this BUT what is confirmed is that it's a few to several centuries (Mukamis being the youngest).

However, here are three posts I've made or I've referenced on this blog!

Don't apologize for asking something that might have been asked before, you're good :) I don't expect everyone to like,,, go through the whole thing (although there's some people who do and holy shit I see you in my notifs, goddamn)
