#Holy shit that’s a loooooot of tags

[aspartameabuser69]

actually nevermind please ignore my question about the greyscales

I think I’ll just put why the greyscales are so bad in case some people don’t know:

all the characters are basically the same colors with the same values, most of the characters have very different backstories and suns that got them sent to hell but are all just r e d. it’s all just darker red clothes, some white, yellow and light grey/white faces (even if they’re supposed to be POC but okay…) It speaks to a larger issue in Vivziepop’s designs is how similar they looks even they’re supposed to be different. Alastor and Vox for an example, I would say Vox’s design is a bit better because he has more colour variation (though the values are still similar to other characters). I suppose you could argue they’re supposed to look like that because rivals matching but they’re supposed to mirror each other not just be the same character recoloured with a different head. All of Viv’s POC characters also have the issue that of literally having no ethnic features, also people can be POC but “look white” BUT it’s an issue when all her POC have literally no ethnic features, I guess Sera might have dreadlocks? If you squint? In heaven they’re all blue and white, and in hell they’re all red, black, white, yellow, and grey. And sometimes green, pink, or green if you’re lucky. Also the only character you can really consider fat is Mimzy, and Mammon but he just looks like he’s wearing big clothes. Both of those characters are also money hungry greedy antagonists (Mammon is the sin of greed for fucks sake). The rest of her characters are slim thick who exist only as accessories for the male characters and exist on shitty merch. Her designs fucking suck is what I’m trying to say. Also if there are grammar or misspellings I am not going to proofread this post and I’m writing this on mobile lol.

⟡ favorite color(s)?

I really like pink! I had a whole journey to admitting to myself I like it. I used to admittedly hate it - I was that person when I was a kid, because my mother would push pink stuff on me, but as I got older I realized I just like pink!

⟡ last song?

Ummm! I think the last song I listened to was by Penny Parker - I am All of Me. I believe it's a cover. I am a die hard fan of Snapcube and their dubs. I just watched the dub of Shadow the Hedgehog on their channel for the fiftieth time. I have time honoured videos that I watch over and over.

⟡ last movie?

holy shit, ummmmmmm. I think the last movie I watched was everything everywhere all at once - with my partners. I don't really watch movies a loooooot. but we rewatched that recently. it's amazing.

⟡ currently reading?

I have a few books by my bedside. I'm always in the middle of reading fanfiction as well.

⟡ currently watching?

I'm currently rewatching One Piece because I'm a maniac and I am having a Blast. I love Luffy. I love Sanji. I love One Piece.

⟡ currently craving?

Uhhhhh. If I'm honest, nothing. But if I had to have something - probably some iced coffee. My aches so badly - chronic migraines are a bitch.

⟡ coffee or tea?

Honestly, I really like both of them. If I'm in a tough spot - or I need caffeine immediately I'll probably reach for coffee first - but only because I usually have coffee that I can drink more quickly. But I love them equally.

*heavy breathing*

Okay. So. This one is a bit of a doozy for me. I hope the 80k isn’t too intimidating for you - if it is, I get it - because holy shit I cannot recommend it enough. You know a fic is fucking good when you read it once and immediately resign yourself to never reading it again because it’s just… too much. That was me months ago when I first read this. The very thought brought me to tears. And if that wasn’t enough, I couldn’t listen to Head Over Heels again until like a week or two ago, lol. And now I’ll have to wait months and months again before I can listen to it without immediately tearing up. The power of incredible writing.

This is probably (definitely) my favorite of the ‘Steve and Eddie are secretly dating’ subgenre of Steddie fics. As well as my favorite ‘Eddie and Steve knew each other while Steve worked at Scoops’ story. They’re both very niche genres, of course. So much of this fic has kind of wormed itself into my brain and my own headcanons that re-reading it for this rec was an eye-opening experience. “Wait, that was from this? I thought I made that up!”

I never would have thought that a substitute phrase for I Love You could make me tear up, but dammit, if I even slightly think of the words “I’m forever yours,” I’m gone. In tears as we speak. With that out of the way, yes - I cried again while re-reading it. Not as much as I did the first time, mind you, but yeah. Y’all know me; I am as soft as a gently baked batch of cookies.

To summarize: cute boys being cute together and almost dying makes Roosterbox cry like a baby, lol.

Highly, highly recommended.

Important side note: No link, except to the login page. The writer has locked the fic for the time being. Not gonna complain or judge them for it (if they’re reading this, I understand - you do what you feel you must), just FYI. You can still find it if you have an Ao3 account.

Next Week: Okay guys, I’m gonna level with you. I think it’s time to dive headfirst into one of my favorite fic tropes. One that a loooooot of people aren’t into. For various reasons. And I get it. I do, I swear I do. But you know… it’s always been one of my comfort tropes. I am, of course, talking about the M word. Mpreg. And it’s my favorite type of Mpreg story: one where it isn’t explained. Is it ABO? Maybe but probably not. Is the guy trans? Maybe. Is it just that men can get pregnant in this universe? Maaaaaaaybe. Draw your own conclusions and/or have your own headcanon. Just enjoy the ride.

Oh, and it’s Arthur/Eames by the way. Figured that was important to mention.

Until next week, darlings ❤️

Favorite animal: Yes! ...in all honesty, though, gotta say dragons.

Average hours of sleep: Oh christ NOT ENOUGH. I try to aim for 6-7 at least most nights because otherwise I am a useless pile of shit but everything depends on how well I can keep my Anxiety Internetting and Depression Naps in check. 

Dogs or Cats: Cats edge dogs out slightly because I grew up with them but why must there be a choice. Why.

How many blankets I sleep with: The BF firmly limits it to two and donates his body heat for the rest but my god I would sleep with 50 if I could.

Dream Trip: Oh lord. Every time I think of traveling I kinda want to cry because (a) no money my dude, (b) traveling drains the fuck out of me, and yet (c) EVERYWHERE. There is so much of the planet I have not seen, give it to meeeeeeee

When I made this account: Jfc, when did I make this account?! *checks* HOLY SHIT THAT LONG?! It’ll be exactly 4 years in two weeks.

Why I made this account: I kept lurking on Tumblr looking for porn and jewelry, and the Marvel fandom had exploded all over it so I was reading a loooooot of Avengers fic. Mostly Clint/Coulson. I tried to resist but I was w e a k.  

Reason for url: Y’know, I can’t remember exactly when I made this handle? I’ve had it for a while, long enough that there’s no way I’m tracking down when my first instance of it was. ‘Pocky’ was and is a favorite snack of mine, and ‘Puck’ comes from the Shakespeare character of the same name. It sounded good together, so here we are. 

Tagging: Everybody. At least anybody who wants it. TAGS ALL AROUND.

I'm new to wjsn so I was wondering, who are the more common/popular ships of the cosmic gays?~

Welcome to the fandom newest ujung!

Since there are a lot of members in WJSN/Cosmic Girls there are a loooooot of ships, there’s a reason they’re called the Cosmic Gays, but since you’ve asked for the most popular ones I’ll only list those in this post!

Seola X Soobin = Seolbin, this ship is one of the funniest in my opinion because they are obviously each other’s ideal type but Soobin vehemently denies that Seola is her ideal type, even after describing her ideal type as someone who was just like Seola. If you don’t have the V LIVE app I recommend downloading it just to keep up with the members and their random V Lives. But go and watch Seola and Soobin’s V Live Dates, I’ll link them below for now: http://www.vlive.tv/video/16795?channelCode=F5F127 & http://www.vlive.tv/video/24022?channelCode=F5F127 & http://www.vlive.tv/video/24025?channelCode=F5F127

Bona X Xuan Yi = Boxuan, this ship is adorable, these two are so cute together, and they form one of the bigger ships in the group. Xuan Yi in a V LIVE Uzzu Tape even referred to Bona as her boyfriend, which Bona tried to clarify that she was her girlfriend not her boyfriend. Boxuan is just these two cuties being cute, it’s just adorable, ship it, love it. 

Bona X Luda = Bonlu, this ship is putting two smols together, but the twist is, one of the smols pretends not to like the other one, and that smol is Luda. Luda is lovingly referred to as the “Pocket Satan” or “Pocket Devil” based on her smol size and level of savagery. In this ship she tends to be the one that picks on Bona. Between Bonlu and Boxuan some people will fight to the death over which one is real or which one is better, but they’re both adorable in their own ways.

Bona X Eunseo = 2yeon, this ship isn’t the same as the Twice ship 2yeon and it comes from Bona and Eunseo’s real names. Bona’s real name being Jiyeon and Eunseo’s being Juyeon, therefore they create 2yeon. These two nag and pick on each other, but in a loving way. They’re really close and often have V LIVE broadcasts together, they even call themselves the “Yeon Sisters” you can watch some of their previous V LIVE broadcast here: http://www.vlive.tv/video/17863?channelCode=F5F127 & http://www.vlive.tv/video/26353?channelCode=F5F127

Xuan Yi X Mei Qi = Lesbian Chinese Billionaires, this ship or should I say power couple came about as a joke whenever an ujung posted a photo on twitter that made it seem as if Xuan Yi and Mei Qi were lesbian chinese billionaires that had married, making them the richest couple in the world (even though it was a photo for their movie release) and the internet lost its shit mind. I’m not sure of the actual name of the ship but if you just mention the chinese lesbian billionaires, everyone will know its these two. 

Eunseo X Cheng Xiao = Eunxiao, this ship may very well be one of the biggest, if not the biggest ship in WJSN. It is adorable. The interactions between these two will make you smile without you even noticing it. Although Eunseo comes off as a fuckboy a little strong sometimes, she means well and seems like she goes out of her way just to make Cheng Xiao smile. Eunseo and Cheng Xiao got close initially because Eunseo helped Cheng Xiao with learning Korean and still helps her out. Do yourself a favor and just search the tag “Eunxiao” on here, it will give you everything you need.

Eunseo X Luda = Eunlu or Lunseo, this ship consists of the tallest member and the smallest member of the group, and their height difference is adorable. The tol and smol are often seen hugging and being cute together. Eunseo tends to take care of Luda since she’s smol and despite being nicknamed “Pocket Satan” Luda is rarely, if ever, mean or reveals her savage nature towards Eunseo. 

Yeoreum X Dayoung X Yeonjung = 99 Line, this ship isn’t really a ship, but these three kids are cute with each other, they tend to pick on each other, but they’re showing love in their own unique way. Yeoreum and Dayoung go to school together and once had a 2 hour long V LIVE broadcast and Dayoung and Yeonjung have broadcasts together as well, they’re here: http://www.vlive.tv/video/15572?channelCode=F5F127 & http://www.vlive.tv/video/26139?channelCode=F5F127 & http://www.vlive.tv/video/28269?channelCode=F5F127

Xuan Yi X Cheng Xiao X Mei Qi = The Chinity, this ship like the one mentioned above, isn’t really a ship, but more of a pairing. The name comes from the fact that these members are the Chinese members and make up the part of a Holy Trinity and have therefore been dubbed “The Chinity” In WJSN’s recent MV “Happy” they have a moment together and the ujungs went wild over it. 

Those are some of the major ships in WJSN, forgive me if I’ve forgotten any but I can’t think of anymore major ships in the group right now.

But since you’re new one way to get to know the members, as well as to learn about the ships and see them in action is to watch the reality show they shot last year! it’s called “My Cosmic Diary” and English subtitles are available for every episode, here’s the first one to get you started: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPsn6MVOyjg&t=35s
