성화 SEONGHWA

✧ [11,1k] plastic flowers — @bobateastay ( f ; s ; a ) ↪ note: this fic revolves around abortion, so please keep this in mind before reading. i read this on a flight— and i don't know if it was the altitude, but it broke me. the author beautifully wrote this, in a way where unconditional love, hope and pain are intertwined. one of the most pleasantly surprising and touching reads i've had on this platform by far.

✧ [2,3k] essence — @hwaightme ( f ) ↪ note: this one is for the poetic, hopelessly romantic fics lovers. everything i've read from this author was beautiful so far! the poetry in this fic was so pretty that i felt the need to share it to my friends... although i usually never share fics out of tumblr. i'm excited to read through more of your writings, bai!

윤호 YUNHO

✧ [13k + 18,2k] unprofessional attraction ; pt.1 , pt.2 , [tbc] — @jk97 ( f ; s ; a ) ↪ note: i was so engulfed into this fic that i skipped a lecture to continue reading. fics that are heavier nsfw-wise usually aren't my thing, but here, every single line pulled me in. hell, i felt even more insane about yunho after reading this. saying i'm excited about the next chapters would be an understatement.

✧ [14k] closer, face down — @ncteez ( s ; f ) ↪ note: again, although i usually prefer fluff over smut, i absolutely loved this fic... the build up made it so enticing! i don't know if a re-edit still is in the works, but i'd absolutely re-read it regardless!

✧ [84,5k] project: make you love me (series) — @hwaslayer ( f ; a ; s ) ↪ note: pulled an all nighter to read the entire series in one go... it was that fun to read! the relationship was built up at a nice, natural pace, while still keeping the reader on their toes. (this made me very excited about the seonghwa series in progress..!)

things i love about heartstopper 17/?

Oh my god the communication. These kids are doing better than most people my age and I love it. Yeah, I know it's idealistic but that's the point, that's why it's great. It shows us what's possible, without having all the characters be perfect.

Because the thing is, they don't always get it right. There wouldn't be much plot if they did (although I would literally watch a whole series of them just communicating effectively and having fun together). There are challenges, and some characters are better at it than others because even in this idealistic world, the characters are all so human. Charlie literally says he hates being honest about his feelings, and he consistently tries to hide things from people in a way that's hugely self-destructive. Darcy hides their abusive family until they reach a major crisis point. Elle doesn't tell Tao she got into Lambert. Nick doesn't tell Charlie he wants to go to Leeds. Tara doesn't really let people see how stressed she is until she has a literal panic attack. Tao lashes out at people in a way that, with other people, could end his friendships.

But, even when they fuck up, they (eventually) talk about it (well, we know Nick will in S4). They talk about things that are hard, even if they have to be forced to it by a crisis point. They do it kindly. They apologise when they get it wrong, or are unkind.

And it's also super important when they listen to each other. Talking is important, but it's only half of communication. Tao, Charlie, and Darcy are all prime examples of people who needed to learn to hear what people are telling them - that they're lovable and loved, deeply cared for. They each did self-destructive and potentially relationship-damaging things because they wouldn't hear that, and they all had to learn.

Another super important element, especially for a teen show (although plenty of adults I know could learn from it) is that they actively demonstrate healthy consent (and also what consent isn't - Ben and Charlie are the obvious examples of that). "How about while I walk you home we talk a bit more about what you're comfortable with?" This is so good. And it shows that consent can be complicated and also how to deal with those complications. Throughout, we see various characters checking in that things are okay. We see them listening, and noticing more than verbal communication. "That didn't sound very sure." This is the kind of ongoing, caring, attentive communication that is key to consent (and not just around sex either).

Where was this energy in the media that was around when I was a teenager?! Bad communication was so romanticised and it really screwed us up! Everyone my age needed to see this idealised approach to communication so badly, we're all scrambling around trying to figure out how to do it in our 30s and 40s.

I'm so damn glad my kids are seeing this and getting an idea of how they can talk about hard things too. Not just romance and sex but friendship and emotions and navigating this shitshow of a world.

made this for fun but now I’m just sad

[VD: A Legally Blonde musical edit comparing lines between "What I Want" and "Legally Blonde" that have the same tune.

Elle: "How about love?" Emmet: "What about love?"

Elle: "You ever been in love?" Emmet: "I never mentioned love."

Elle: "'Cause if you have, you'll know." Emmet: "The timing's bad, I know"

Elle: "No place it cannot go." Emmet: "You wouldn't have to go."

Elle: "Don't say no to a woman in love." Emmet: "'Cause you'd know that I'm so much in love--" (Elle sings over him with the refrain of "Legally Blonde"). End VD]

How social media and Tao's short film progressed the story - Heartstopper Season 3

It's impressive how the instagram stories and especially Tao's movie for Charlie could've been moments to stop the narrative and take a breather for character development, halting the main plot, but the fact they were able to do both is so impressive, I'm shocked they were able to package so much this season.

From the instagram stories, we saw the process of Darcy moving into their grandma's house, Elle and Tao's summer of romance and Elle's journey of moving into a new school, plus her growing stardom. Yeah, all of these are things the characters do mention and we see the pinnacle moments of them, but it's these "nothing" moments that make it feel real. We see the middle part of their journeys, all while we focus on the main thing: which is the decay and recovery of both Nick and Charlie's mental health.

And then Tao's movie, which is just supposed to be a big love letter to Charlie and how much they care about him, we also progress the plot: Tara's plate getting bigger by being a prefect, Elle's growing stardom in her social media, Darcy trying out new pronouns, Imogen and Sahar's complicated relationship, Tao having time to hang out with Isaac, Nick lacking an identity without Charlie, everyone's arc moves forward in a three minute short film, all while we truly understand how much his friends love and miss Charlie.

The short film could've just been a montage of all his friends telling Charlie how much they love him with a background song playing, and while they do tell him they love him, it's them telling Charlie personal things about themselves that shows how strong their relationship is with Charlie. Darcy in particular getting emotional telling Charlie about trying out new pronouns is so touching. Especially the line "He gets it", because you can see how present Charlie is for them and everyone.

And my favorite detail about the short film is how raw it feels. No song, just ambience and the character's dialogues. I love that short film so much. 🍂
