2 - 28 Banking on Murder

Me getting too excited when I get to write an episode with my babi chonkers in it

Anyway Irratino changes his outfit every book, and I've just settled on his Spurdle design :3 lemme know what you think!

DON'T READ THE EPISODES WITHOUT READING THE BOOKS!!

Logico and Irratino are chilling back home.

IRRATINO: Yearly million! LOGICO: What? IRRATINO: Every year, the Institute holds its million-dollar giveaway to anyone who can prove the occult! I’m withdrawing it now, then we can pick it up and hold the contest!

Logico rolls his eye. Irratino has a stupid amount of money. Goat Lord clicks around on the bank website and gets a pop-up.

IRRATINO: Service denied? Wh- SENDING ASSISTANCE?

He immediately gets a phone call.

PERSON: Fucked-up stuff is going on in your bank account, Mr. Inspector. I demand to speak to you! LOGICO: Oh, who’s that. IRRATINO: Uh… haheheh! Uh… LOGICO: Being rich causing… ⋆˚｡⁺⋆issues?~

Irratino does the biggest sheepish grin. They have to go to the bank right now. When they get there, the person who called Irratino is dead.

IRRATINO: Oh, thank god! Ha ha! 

Logico glares at him.

IRRATINO: I mean yeah. Murder time.

Chalk, Mango, and Emerald are wandering, being some of the richest people alive. Wonder what they’re here for?

EMERALD: I can tell you what I’m here for. LOGICO: Murder? EMERALD: N- LOGICO: Then I’m not interested.

It seems Mango is occupied printing fake money (with mustaches on the presidents!). He is snickering to himself as he watches the bills fly.

LOGICO: Feeling mature, I see. MANGO: EW, Logico. Go do something else, like solve a MURDER. LOGICO: That’s what I AM DOING. IRRATINO: Do you know who I’m supposed to talk to about the money thing? CHALK: [‘I don’t know’-adjacent llama sound]

Everything in the bank is so shiny, because banks are made out of money! Emerald is distracted by every detail, and Logico catches him hanging upside-down from a chandelier.

LOGICO: Excuse me? EMERALD: [wraaack?] LOGICO: Are you trying to steal crystals from the chandelier? EMERALD: No! 

He flies around in a frenzy, whacking Logico in the face. Gico decides to lie.

LOGICO: If you tell me the truth about what you saw, I’ll pretend I never saw you. EMERALD: You would do that… for me? All right… I saw a laptop under ownership of one that people tend to call… CHONKERS. CHALK: [scream] [nervous laugh] Hi!

Irratino gets a lightbulb idea!

IRRATINO: Logico! I just realized something obvious! LOGICO: Hooray. IRRATINO: We can hack into the security footage, and see who did it!  LOGICO: Can’t I solve it myself?

Unfortunately, there’s only footage from the vaults. Chalk is inside!

LOGICO: The bastard! Doesn’t he have enough money?

But no, he’s playing around on his laptop. There are some video game sound effects.

GAME: OBJECTION!!

Chalk giggles and claps. I don’t think he’s interested in what’s in the vault. When shown the footage, he cries.

CHALK: I just wanted a place to play my game… where no one would judge me.

Logico sighs. The only one who retains a guilty conscience is… the mango!

MANGO: That’s correct! LOGICO: You see, Irratino, there is no other way! IRRATINO: Pfft. I knew that in my gut the whole time. LOGICO: Sure you did. IRRATINO: Doesn’t matter, there’s no doubt about it - Mango is peeled! MANGO: EW! Are you saying I deserve to be SKINNED? CHALK: Irratino, that’s horrible! EMERALD: Even if he did this murder, there is nothing warranting that language! LOGICO: Yes, even I think that’s a bit- IRRATINO: All RIGHT I’m SORRY!!! Jesus. MANGO: For the glory of God, murder is permissible! LOGICO: What religion do you even follow??

The end!

WUPDATE: Desecrate

𝚆𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚎𝚜𝚍𝚊𝚢, 𝙰𝚙𝚛𝚒𝚕 𝟷𝟶𝚝𝚑 || 𝟼 𝙼𝚘𝚗𝚝𝚑𝚜!

HI HELLO GOOD NEWS BABIES MY LAPTOP IS FIXED!!!!

After the chaos that was last week, the fact that I not only got my laptop fixed (with no data missing!!) but also reached 20k in revisions on Desecrate???? Magic.

Now that everything is back in balance, I will be returning to Incorrect Eyes. I just needed to stick with my baby boy Kit while I lost my mind lmao. Kit Beloved has such a tender start to his story that I honestly don't want to leave it, but that's okay! I'll be back!!

We're about 1/4 of the way through this trash draft rewrite, meaning I'm expecting it to be ~80k words. That is 10k longer than Call Me Icarus, and it will only get longer when I truly draft it!! Desecrate is going to be a chonker!!

I will also have another post coming out today, a 6 month update on the release of ΔΆΙΟΣ (the first book in the Call Me Icarus series). It has been 6 months to the day since release, and hoo boy have there been updates!!

OH AND ONE MORE THING I HAVE AN OFFICIAL DAY FOR DESECRATE'S COVER REVEAL!!! Come say hi on 𝚃𝚑𝚞𝚛𝚜𝚍𝚊𝚢, 𝙼𝚊𝚢 𝟿𝚝𝚑, otherwise known as the feast of Ascension in the Catholic Church. This year, we're celebrating the Ascension of Christian Amadeus Michaels, the beautiful main character of Desecrate!

Anyways, snippes for yous!

Kit parks the truck in his driveway, turning it off but not getting out. Benny doesn’t get out for a moment either, but when it’s clear that neither of them are going to say anything she opens the door and steps out into the crisp night air. Kit’s eyes track her movement, watching as she crosses through the beam of his headlights and as she leaves his peripherals. He expects her to go inside, to leave him wallowing by himself, but he’s shocked out of his thoughts when his door swings open. Benny pulls him towards her, her arms wrapping tight around his head and holding him to her chest as she whispers, “Don’t go where I can’t follow you.”

And another one:

They fall into a comfortable routine as they enter the home, Kit throws his backpack on the couch before heading to his room to change and Benny starts putzing around the kitchen. He doesn’t say anything until he hears a loud clatter. Throwing on his oversized cutoff, he rushes out into the kitchen to find Benny standing in the center of the room with a handful of metal mixing bowls strewn around her. Kit busts out laughing, having to stabilize himself on the counter from the force of the laughter. Benny’s pouting where she stands, a beautiful red blush dusting her cheeks and the bridge of her nose. “I was trying—it’s not that funny—Kit~—I was just trying to get some bowls out, you didn’t tell me you booby trapped this place,” she pouts, bending down to pick up the scattered bowls. When Benny turns her back to him to set the bowls down on the counter, Kit walks up and wraps his arms around her waist. He buries his head in her hair and sways her side to side as she giggles before using the momentum to swing her to the other edge of the kitchen. She kicks her legs out in front of her as he swings her around, her giggles growing louder. When her feet touch the ground again, she turns in Kit’s hold and wraps her arms around his shoulders. “It’s really hard for me to make dinner from over here, silly cat.” “Well then it’s a good thing you’re not making dinner, huh?”

And another for good measure:

Pushing those thoughts out of his head, Kit rolls Benny off of him and sits up. He throws his legs over the edge of the bed and stretches his arms above his head, yawning as he pops the soreness from his back. The bed behind him shifts as Benny sidles up to his back, her legs framing his on the edge of the bed and her arms sliding around his waist. Her lips are warm against the nape of his neck, Kit thinks he could stay right here for the rest of his life and never want to leave.

introducing Mr Fred Big Chonkers (left) and Bandana Squeeks (right)

Mr Fred Big Chonkers was given on my birthday, I asked the two friends who gave me him what to name him since I drank a bit and uh… didn’t have any name or brain juice within me. One friend said: Mr Fred and the other said Big Chonkers, so yeah, thats how his name came into being. He likes to eat and laze around and has a ribbon around his neck bc he is fancy ok?

Bandana Squeeks was called Mousy when I first got em, a gift from mum for christmas, and I ALSO didn’t have name or brain juice then too. On a whim I decided to call them Bandana Squeeks because they have a bandana, and squeeks? I dont know either. What I do know is that Bandana Squeeks sits outside my plush cabinet ans protects the rest, their sibling (yes they have a matching twin that I gave to a friend for her bday) is somewhere and they hope to reunite once again. Someday. I think Bandana Squeeks also stole a few of my pencils but eh, yknow.

8, 10, 14?

8. Tell us an anecdote about your pets!

It's hard to pick just one story! But here goes.

Last year, Sara and I went to the Outer Banks, NC, with a bunch of people for the holidays. We were gone for about five days, and had organized a couple petsitters and friends to stop in and care for (and spend time with) the boys. All was going well the first few days, we got daily pictures and updates of our happy lil potatoes. 

.......all good until the final visit, one of my college friends and her roommate stopped by to feed them. She texted me to let me know she had gotten there, and then a couple minutes later, I got a phone call. "Um......hey Kat? Are they supposed to be, like, loose? I think they're running around your living room." She pulled up video chat and showed us the scene of destruction. 

Lynx was running wild under the couch, and had chewed through all of the cords he could reach. Leo was off in his own world, munching away on Rigel and Io's food, and Rigel & Io were totally freaked out, rumble-strutting and pacing around their cage that had been broken into. (Lynx and Leo were definitely the instigators - not only did they break out of their own cage, they went around to the other side and wiggled their way into Rigel & Io's.) 

We spent twenty minutes coordinating as these poor ladies caught the boys, put them back in their proper cages, and fixed the part of the cage they had escaped from. I told her to not hold back and to ziptie everything together, she even put one of our ottomans in front of the gate so they couldn't accidentally push it open. For two people who have never handled guinea pigs in their lives, they did such a great job! I felt SO bad for them. And ever since, I'm always super nervous leaving them alone for even a night. We are about to go on the same trip, and we’re thinking of taking all four boys and driving them down to North Carolina with us, because even with sitters, we don’t trust them on their own! 

10. Do you have cute/silly nicknames for your pets? What are they?

OH BOY we have some nicknames. 

As a group, we call them the chonkers, potatoes, tots, gorditos, conejitos, lil shits, lil monsters, and pretty much whatever pops into our minds at the time. Here are some individual nickames (which we use out of love!):

Leo: fatty, chonky, chonky boy, fatso, mr. nibbles, nibbles

Lynx: lil monster, hay monster, mr. monster, chonky boy

Rigel: fluffy, floof, the mop, the goodest boy, cinnamon bun, wigel, rigey-rige

Io: (we call him tiny so much that he probably doesn't even know his name is io), tiny, mr. tiny, the tiny boy, funky dude

14. Have you ever had a pet playdate/meetup? (Would you like to?)

We had a couple playdates about two years ago, when Lynx & Leo were just babies. Our roommate's friend brought over her pig, Piggie, and they had floor time and munched on hay together. We would love playdates, but I think the boys are too territorial to be around other pigs. We have to keep the pairs separate, because they get super standoffish and nasty with each other. Our boys love the partner they live with, but really don't play well with others.

[mainly-kpop]

Star-Crossed

Again, I'm sorry I changed most of this, I didn't put her age in soley for the fact that I want everyone to be able to read freely without thinking oh god she's years younger/older than me. @slowlyandrogynouskryptonite.

 Also this is like 5k, shes a chonker. 

‘Oh don’t worry about that! If the appointment was important they will rebook honey!’ She spoke, rubbing her hand up and down her assistants shoulder. She was a bit ditsy and forgetful, but with time she would get better, it was all a game of patience. She sobbed gently into her shoulder, slowly calming herself down.

‘I’m so sorry Miss, I’m sure it was for some movie, it seemed really important.’ She sniffled, choking back a sob, she thought hard for a moment before a memory came to her.

‘Oh! I know what it was for, don’t worry sweetheart, I have the directors number, I’ll give him a call. In the meantime, go for a break, calm yourself down. Please Don’t get yourself so worked up over such trivial things.’ The young girl nodded scurrying off to clean herself up, poor lass she thought, always so stressed when there was no need to be. The phone rang for a couple seconds before a voice picked up at the other end.

‘Min productions, how can I help you today?’ She smiled, recognizing the voice on the other end.

‘Jimin, honey how are you?’ She spoke cheerfully, Jimin was Yoongi’s assistant, booking appointments, calling clients, telling poor souls they didn’t get the part, the usual, but he was also a very dear friend to her.

‘Y/N! I’m fine darling, how are you doing? I feel like I haven’t seen you in MONTHS!’ He spoke, eccentric as always, she could picture him now waving his pen around, sat back in his chair, waving people off into different directions.

‘I’m good Jimin honey, we need a catch up soon okay? But for the time being page me through to Yoongi, I believe he left a message with my assistant.’ She spoke the last part very passively, not really wanting to stop talking to Jimin.

‘Documents for who?! Patricia I don’t care, put a fucking post it note on it and I’ll get it sorted… no I won’t do it now can’t you see I’m on the phone, UGH FINE, Y/N sweetheart I have to go, I’ll page you through, text me later love you!’ She snickered as the call buzzed out, left listening to the hold music before Yoongi picked up.

‘Y/N, thank you for calling me back, I have a proposal for you!’ She rolled her eyes, yes every movie she had been in with Yoongi had boosted her fame, made people want to work with her but she always played some cold hearted woman who couldn’t love, then meets a kind hearted boy who was set to change her views on the world. She could practically picture it all now.

‘Let me guess, I’m the cold hearted protagonist who couldn’t love a puppy, and you’re bringing in some stud who’s going to make me believe in love again?’ Yoongi frowned at her sarcasm, he knew his films were repetitive story wise, but some parts were always different.

‘Okay sassy pants, but I need you to approve the gentleman I’ve casted before I tell him he has the part.’ She never had to audition for him anymore, other directors insisted on an audition Yoongi knew she could do it, therefore he needed no such rubbish. She sighed checking her desk calendar skimming through the appointments and auditions.

‘I can be with you at 3pm tomorrow, how does that sound?’ The suggestion was music to his ears, he scrubbed off a random casting and put her name there instead.

‘Perfect I’m free then, see you tomorrow!’ He chirped hanging up the phone, her assistant walked back into the room as she hung up the call.

‘I have a meeting with Mr. Min tomorrow at 3pm, I know it’s your day off but would you mind coming with me? I can give you the next day off?’ She pleaded, it’s not like she disliked Yoongi, on the contrary she enjoyed the man very much, she just preferred to have someone around.

‘Of course Miss! Should I meet you here or at the studio?’ She pondered for a moment, deciding what would be easier for her assistant.

‘Meet me here Maya darling, we can get coffee on the way, go home early you’ve worked hard today, see you tomorrow.’ Maya grabbed her things, saying a quick goodbye and shuffling out the front door, she waved to her as she got into the car and drove off, what a sweetheart, she thought before closing the door and retreating to a nice warm bath.

‘And what do you think of it?’ Jungkook spoke. Shoveling food into his mouth, it was like he hadn’t eaten in months, Tae sat across the table from him watching in disgust, he poked around at his stupid salad, why the fuck did he order this crap again?

‘It was fine I guess, I don’t even know why I’m doing this, modelling is going fine why would I want to change that?’ He sighed, stealing some chips off Jungkook’s plate, he looked at him disgusted as he shrugged.

‘I ASKED IF YOU WANTED FRIES WHY DO YOU ALWAYS DO THIS?!’ He screamed, Tae rolled his eyes at his friend’s dramatics.

‘Oh my god, why are you so fucking dramatic, I have real problems here idiot.’ He sassed back, throwing the chips back down to Jungkooks plate.

‘Yeah you’re fucking telling me. Maybe you’re doing this because acting is a good way to forward your career, or at the least, it’s good fucking money stop whining.’ He threw the chips back at him, eventually turning into a food fight, chips and pieces of lettuce flying around.

‘So what do you think of him?’ Yoongi spoke bringing her attention back to the room, Yoongi and Maya’s eyes fixed on her. Maya looked star-struck for a moment and she couldn’t figure out why.

‘Maya do you recognise him by any chance?’ She smirked, directing all the attention onto her, she blushed under the eyes of the room, nodding once.

‘Good, tell me all about him, Mr. Min tends to leave out important details.’ She spoke sitting down next to Maya, she went to open her mouth when Yoongi interrupted.

‘Y/N, darling when have I ever-‘ She shushed him quickly, causing his lips to form a small pout.

‘Hush now Mr. Min the adults are talking.’ He rolled his eyes, sitting down at the table across from them.

‘This is Kim Taehyung, he’s a really popular model, with some pretty high end brands, but I think recently he wanted to branch out into something else. I guess acting is what he decided upon, but I must warn you Miss, he has a reputation.’ She rolled her eyes at the formalities, but requested for her to continue nevertheless.

‘He’s said to not be very nice, wonderful on set and polite enough, but he comes, does his job, and leaves without saying a word.’ She pondered for a moment, that didn’t fit her way of doing things, but who was she to decide, this man wanted a chance who was she to stand in his way?

‘Okay, give him the part, send me the details and script, I’ll see you on the first day.’ She spoke, placing her co-stars photo down, shaking hands with Yoongi and heading out the door, Maya following suit.

‘Are you sure about this Miss? He really doesn’t seem like the nicest of men…’ She smiled at her assistant, the poor girl was clearly worried for her, bless her heart.

‘Ah yes Maya, but he is definitely eye candy, don’t you agree? And please, call me Y/N, this ‘Miss’ thing makes me feel so old!’ She giggled and blushed nodding along, agreeing to drop the formalities.

She showed up to set a couple weeks later, script in hand. Reading through it and trying to enjoy it had been a task to say the least, but she tried her best. The plot was as she expected, she was a business woman, completely job oriented, family begging her to get married, settle down, find a man, give them some grand babies! Taehyung plays a young intern, desperate for recognition and love, determined to change her mind about, well men in general. Of course blah blah blah, happy endings, she would be far more excited if this wasn’t exactly what she always did.

‘Jimin!’ She screamed out across the set, seeing him enter the door running over to Yoongi. He saw her and diverted straight away, running over to give her a tight cuddle.

‘Darling! How are you! You look wonderful, did they do something to your hair?’ He questioned squeezing her face and tilting it, the light shined on her face at different angles helping him better determine what had changed.

‘Oh no I know what it is! Fake eyelashes!’ He pointed out, proud of himself, she fluttered her lashes at him making him giggle.

‘Jimin! Stop distracting her, what are you here for?!’ Yoongi yelled from the directors chair, Jimin rolled his eyes and huffed, plastering on his best fake smile.

‘Ah yes Mr. Min sir, your leading male Mr. Attitude is here.’ He smiled tightly before turning back to her, putting his hand up to his ear in a ‘call me’ motion before leaving the room quickly. Yoongi raised his eyebrows and shook his head, getting up to leave the room. She took a seat on the spinning chair on set, waiting patiently for her co-star.

‘Y/N love, I’d like you to meet Kim Taehyung, get to know each other for a bit while we set things up, that means all cast please!’ The whole cast huddled around the desk looking at her expectantly, she was the big star so I guess it made sense she broke the ice. She introduced herself, going around the room getting them all to say their names, hoping to break down some walls in what seemed so far, like an all male cast.

There was Namjoon, who insisted he be called Joon or Joonie, she found him positively adorable and concluded his cheeks must be poked at least once everyday. He seemed very shy and bashful however and she was excited to break that, have him be the most confident.

Next came Hoseok who smiled like a ray of sunshine, his smile was contagious, his laugh even more so and if she could choose he would be her love interest. Moving onto the next gentleman, she made a mental note to grab his number, maybe go out to lunch sometime.

Jin was next, a whole bundle of self confidence, radiating from every pore he possessed. His face was something to behold, 100% but his body is what made her look him up and down more than once, his shoulder to waist ratio making her question what she did and didn’t lust over.

Last up was her illusive co-star, not very talkative, and very ignorant, clearly not here to make friends, he spoke his name not giving much else. She squinted at him making another mental note, but this time to crack him, understand what makes him so job oriented.

‘Okay places please, scene 4 take one!’ Yoongi yelled gaining everyone’s attention, he screamed action, the cameras starting and the actors shuffling paper to look as busy as possible.

‘Places once again people! Last try before we call it a day please get your head in the game, scene 4 take 7, ACTION!’ He screamed for the last time today, this was getting exhausting, the scene slowly becoming her most hated. ‘UGH CUT!! Clear the scene, everyone go home I’m over this, you two stay.’ He spoke pointing at them both, she flopped back in the chair, waving goodbye to the boys and smiling sadly, Tae sat himself delicately on the edge of the desk.

‘You, and you, are stressing me to the hilt. There is no chemistry between you. Now, I booked you a nice dinner, go together, enjoy a meal, get to know each other, and fucking come back here with something better tomorrow.’ He yawned waving them off, Tae looked angry, like steam could come out his ears and nose like a train. She sighed getting up and straightening out her costume.

‘Well, I’m going to get changed, I’ll meet you in the lobby in 10 minutes.’ He grabbed her wrist stopping her, she turned around looking down at her small wrist clamped in his large hands.

‘You really have me confused if you think I’m spending my free time with you.’ He snarled dropping her wrist and turning to walk out the room.

‘Wait just a second, now not to be that person or anything, but he asked for my approval on you, I was told about your reputation, about how you act and how you behave, I’ve heard all about you Mr. Kim, yet I still told him to give you this job. Now as I said, meet me in the lobby in 10 minutes, or this job is no longer yours, Hoseok could be a cute replacement…’ He watched her leave the room, she was never one to threaten someone, to make them wonder if the job they had they would get to keep, he seemed to have a negative effect on her and she didn’t like it. She left the room, his eyes watching her leave, he smirked when she was fully out the room. She was feisty, he liked that, he really liked that. He left the room to get out of costume, rushing down to the lobby to meet her.

‘So what made you want to branch out?’ She asked twirling her spaghetti onto her fork, he watched her intently, smirking as she stuck her tongue out to concentrate. The spaghetti falling of the fork causing her to huff in exasperation, he laughed lightly handing her a spoon too.

‘Try it like this, put the fork against the spoon and twirl, your less likely to drop it that way.’ She raised a brow skeptically, trying it anyway, her face mirrored the perfect description for shock.

‘I didn’t really want to branch out to answer your question, everyone told me it would be a good way to get more popular, I don’t see it really…’ He answered honestly, why would he lie to her weirdly enough he quite liked the girl. She was dopey, sure, a little bit frantic, but that whole mean girl, ‘I’m in control’ persona she wore talking to him had faded the second they left the building. She was funny, and smart, weirdly adorable and just the nicest person he had ever met. Usually that would make him disgusted, how could anyone be so happy in a world so gloomy, but she made him see things slightly brighter.

‘You shouldn’t do things like this for popularity Mr. Kim, these things take time, effort and a lot of staying behind, from what I’ve heard that isn’t how you roll. I believe it would be time to break out of that comfort zone.’ She spoke openly, she felt comfortable with him, for the first time all day, she felt maybe she was chipping away at the walls he had hidden himself behind. His short chuckle, through closed lips, teased the air around them, disappearing quickly into the hustle and bustle of the busy restaurant. They sat in comfortable silence for a while, enjoying each others presence before they had to leave. She waved over the server, ready to pay the bill in full.

‘No let me get it, it’s the least I could do for dragging you down to my level today.’ He spoke presenting his card instead, she frowned, shaking her head.

‘You did no such thing, we just need to rehearse and get to know each other. Let me pay for this, as a thank you for trying to let me in.’ She replied, both standing off with the waiter, he put out his hand requesting for them to stop.

‘Actually, your bill is already paid in full, Mr. Min sends his blessings.’ He walked swiftly away leaving him baffled and her shaking her head.

‘If I had known he was paying for it I would have ordered the lobster…’ She commented sarcastically.

‘So what are you saying?’ Jimin questioned, eyeing up the food at the table next to them, how hard was it to get some service around here?! He clicked his fingers ushering a waiter over, both of them quickly placing their orders.

‘I’m saying, darling, that he’s a pain in my perfectly sculpted rear-end. He doesn’t want to rehearse the kissing scenes, doesn’t want to rehearse full stop, he’s so rude on set, he snapped at Jin 4 times in 5 minutes yesterday, he is insufferable.’ She huffed back, crossing her arms over the table eyeballing her empty wine glass, oh what she wouldn’t do for a glass of red right now.

‘But you like him though, like a lot.’ She raised her eyebrows in disbelief, Jimin was cute but I guess he didn’t have the smarts up there in his perfect little head. ‘I can literally hear it in the way you talk about him, it’s quite disgusting actually.’ The waiter came over breaking the conversation briefly, she nodded thanking the server before he bowed and left.

‘UGH I asked for no pickles!’ He whined, she rolled her eyes grabbing them off his plate and slapping them onto hers.

‘Now that’s sorted, what do you mean by I’m obviously smitten?’ She questioned, clearly not ready to let the accusation drop that easily.

‘Oh my god he doesn’t want to kiss me! He’s insufferable Jimin I can’t take it. He’s so annoying!’ He mocked flailing his arms, drawing attention to the little table they booked in the corner, she placed her head in her hands in shame. ‘Honestly babe, just fuck and get it out your system.’ She spat her water across the table at him, after wiping his face he smirked, clearly getting the rise out of her he wanted.

‘STOP LETTING ME WIN YOU REJECT!’ Taehyung shouted, throwing the controller down for the last fucking time this night. If Jungkook forfeited one more time, he swears he will, god he doesn’t even know, he just will.

‘I’m not letting you win, maybe I’m just not into it tonight, or you could be getting better!’ Jungkook faked surprise, Tae rolled his eyes shoving his shoulder.

‘Tell me again why you’re the only person I decided to like?’ He huffed sitting back in his seat, Jungkook casually resting his legs on his lap, they both pulled their phones out silently scrolling through apps. Tae didn’t really need to be reminded why he was friends with Jungkook, it was never something he questioned realistically.

They had become friends in college, both of them falling asleep in lectures. Eventually, they gravitated towards each other, sitting together and eventually falling asleep on each others shoulders. They never ended up actually speaking until years later, Tae had just been casted for a random photoshoot, hopefully something to get him attention, something to finally make him money. Jungkook was the props man, hoping endlessly to be the one behind the camera, taking photos and directing everyone. They grew their career together, the only real ones through all these fake money grabbing scumbags.

‘I know why!’ Jungkook screamed, frightening Tae so much his phone flew out his hand, smacking Jungkooks shin.

‘Jesus fucking Christ, what?!’ He yelped, it had been roughly ten minutes, Tae can only assume he had been thinking of a reason this entire time.

‘Because, I’m the only friend you have, you don’t like people so I’m literally the only social interaction you get, face it. You need me.’ He stated proudly, clearly thinking he had stumped the other.

‘I dunno man, Y/N is pretty okay.’ Jungkook sat up, eyes practically budging out his head.

‘Wait, WHAT?!’ He shrieked, baffled by the fact his antisocial friend, the friend who literally has NO FRIENDS, just said someone was pretty okay.

‘Yeah, I mean I wouldn’t introduce you to her just yet, but I guess she’s kinda cool?’ He shrugged, unaware, and uncaring of his friends extra ass reactions.

‘I don’t want to have to rehearse that, it seems so fucking stupid.’ He sulked, waving his script around. The small dressing room was stuffy, they had been in there for at least an hour, he was getting sick of these four white walls, pieces of blue tac stuck after years of stupid posters being plastered everywhere, the railing holding her costumes for the entire movie, covered in clothing bags with the scene written across it. It was such an ugly little room really, he wished to be anywhere else, his living room, IKEA maybe, her bedroom, another forced fancy meal, the toilet, literally anywhere else.

‘We have to rehearse it Tae, because it’s in the script. Everything in the script has to be rehearsed, has to be practiced. That’s the point in this job.’ She responded calmly, usually she would fly off the handle, tell him to just get out, but what Jimin had said to her a few days ago had really sat with her. It was time to really actually break down some walls.

‘I just don’t see the point, it says you’re surprised, how are you supposed to be shocked when we have practiced it?’ She tilted her head, smiling briefly. Pulling out two bottles of water from the mini fridge, she sat down beside him handing him one bottle. He accepted it skeptically, placing it down beside him.

‘It’s not poison you can calm down, why are you so uptight?’ She never questioned in a rude way, more intrigue.

‘That’s not really any of your business, you may be cute, but damn you’re nosey.’ His eyes widened, the second he realised what he said.

‘I didn’t mean, well I mean I guess I, what I’m trying to say is, agh fuck.’ He stumbled, admitting defeat quickly.

‘You think I’m pretty?’ She questioned, teasing him mostly.

‘Fine I’ll tell you, but please, don’t embarrass me like this, god.’ She squealed triumphantly, crossing her legs, giving him her undivided attention.

‘I don’t stay behind, or talk, or open up because people are shit. You open up to people, let them in and give them your all, for them to leave when times get tough. My ex, she was an actress, you might know her so I won’t say names. She was really good though, so good I couldn’t tell what was acting and real most of the time. She would go away for weeks on end, said it was business trips, she was filming, really she was sleeping with everyone and anyone. The director, the Co-stars, her ex, anyone who would. I found out because she tried that shit on my best friend, do you believe that? The only guy who had been with me since the start of this, the only fucking one. I don’t let people in because, people live to cling onto fame, onto money, power, sex, anything but that real shit.’ She sat in silence for a moment, letting it sink in.

‘You don’t have to say anything, I know that’s a lot to take In, I’ll probably just uh, go…’ He spoke after a while, he got up to leave, before he could she grabbed his hand pulling him back down to the seat beside her, she took him in, studying him properly. Honestly he probably felt entirely uncomfortable, her staring directly at him, but she needed this moment.

‘Do you know why I’m so nice to everyone?’ He tilted his head frowning, after a moment he shook his head, realising he didn’t know why she was so infuriatingly lovely. With their hands still latched together, she drew little circles into his skin.

‘Because it draws people in, the nicer I am to people, the quicker they show who they really are. You see people think I’m stupid, that I’m some naïve little girl, in reality I know about this industry. I know what comes with it, the people, the publicity, the fame, the greed. I know it all, the nicer I am the quicker I weed out the ones who are real and the ones in it for the money.’ He looked down at her hand, still caressing his, he frowned. That’s exactly what he thought of her to start, she was so blind to this entire industry, when in reality that was her power move.

‘What did you think of me? When you first met me, I mean, I thought you were exactly what you said, a blind little girl, but I guess I understand now.’ He spoke, finally trusting her enough.

‘I’m not sure, you were very standoffish to begin, but when we went to that dinner, I think you let a little bit of yourself out without realising it. I think you’re a genuine guy, just scared, and that’s okay you don’t need to be this perfect and confident man all the time, sometimes you can have down days and closed off days. I just want you to know everyone here is very genuine, trust me, you can open up to them, it’s going to make this whole movie so much easier for everyone.’ He couldn’t look away from her face, the baby hairs decorating her forehead, how she still had them was adorable in itself. Eyebrows furrowed together, trying hard to get her mouth to say the words she’s thinking, her mouth, god her mouth.

With one swift movement he pressed his against them, as gently as he could, it was a chaste kiss, a peck to name it, one perfect for the script, her eyes flew open, taking in his every feature, as much as she could considering how close he clearly was. They pulled apart, searching each others eyes, wondering who would talk first, his mouth opened and closed trying to think of words, nothing came to mind.

‘Wow.’ Was all she managed to breath out, mind failing her too.

‘GUYS everyone is packing up, we were going to head out to dinner, Jin was wondering if you wanted to come with us?’ Hoseok questioned from the doorway, the door swung open like privacy was never a thing. ‘Shit sorry guys, I didn’t realise you were rehearsing! You really have that surprised lovey face down! Nice work guys!’ He spoke leaving the room, half way down the hall he called out that they would wait for another ten minutes for them. She turned to him, chuckling gently at the other boys antics.

‘I’m sorry, I didn’t think I would do that, I just couldn’t stop staring at your lips, and no I’m not going to take that back this time.’ He rambled. The pink of a subtle blush dusted her cheeks, she didn’t regret that, but it now complicated things slightly, she had rules, things that really should not happen, and this. This was one of those things that really cannot happen.

‘Maybe we should join them for dinner, we can talk about this later?’ She suggested, avoiding his confession as much as she could. He nodded helping her up from the couch leading them both out the small room.

It had been a couple weeks since the kiss, rehearsals have been strained to say the least. Despite the movie being completely about her and him, thankfully she hadn’t had to film any romantic scenes with him.

‘I don’t understand why you can’t just tell him…’ Namjoon spoke, over the long months filming this movie, she had gotten very close with the older male, he was easy to talk to and exceptionally understanding.

‘I can’t tell him, Joonie, because he doesn’t care, I mean sure he says he likes me, Which I guess is cute, but if I tell him why he will get defensive and weird. It’s the sole reason I can’t date co-stars because everyone needs their ego stroked.’ She spoke honestly, swinging her legs back and forth, both sitting side by side on the desk.

‘But, you don’t know that, he could be really understanding about it you won’t know until you try.’ He was right. She knew deep down, of course he was right, but she didn’t want to talk to him about it, that makes things real, things serious, it wasn’t something she wanted right now.

‘Oh my GOD PATRICIA LEAVE ME ALONE WOMAN, YOUR DOCUMENTS WILL BE SORTED!!’ their heads whipped up in the direction of the booming voice, she snickered seeing Jimin pushing Patricia off set, running a hand through his hair.

‘I swear to god that woman, she lives to infuriate me.’ He spoke coming over, stress and annoyance radiating off his body.

‘Maybe she likes you Jimin, she seems to be around you a lot…’ Namjoon spoke, she choked on a laugh holding it back as much as she could.

‘THE WOMAN IS 43, SHE’S OLD ENOUGH TO BE MY MOTHER!’ He yelped storming away in disgust, shivering slightly, she laughed loudly, falling back on the desk.

‘Tae? Can I come in?’ She spoke timidly, she wasn’t scared of him, just worried about the outcome of this heavy conversation. He nodded motioning her in, Jin took it as his cue to leave.

‘You guys have fun, I’ll talk to you later man!’ sending him a comforting look over her shoulder, he nodded worried smile floating across his face. He closed the door behind him leaving them alone, she took the couch staying across the room from him. Playing with the hem of his t-shirt he avoided eye contact, they both spoke at the same time.

‘Tae I wanted to-‘

‘Why have you been avoiding me?’ His voice that bit louder than hers, both their eyes shot up to look at each other.

‘I, uh, I’m sorry, its just been on my mind since, you know. I just wanted to know…’ He stuttered, not fully able to get the thoughts in his head to connect with his tongue. She looked down at her hands sighing, she really went about this the wrong way.

‘I’m sorry, I have a reason, I really do. I can explain everything, but I need you to not go off on one. I need you to stay calm, and not over react.’ He tilted his head to the side, confused but intrigued, moving from his vanity chair, sitting beside her on the couch he gave her his undivided attention.

‘I was once working on a movie, it was called moonlight, you probably never heard of it because it was never released. My co-stars, he said he really liked me, wanted to give us a chance, wanted to try a real relationship. Long story short, we broke up half way through filming, he couldn’t pretend to be in love with me, not even for the movie. So I don’t date co-star, I don’t fall for my love interest. However, you’re making this really hard for me, you’re making it hard for me to keep my word to myself.’ His hands held onto hers, giving her memories of the kiss, of her comforting him, the tables turning in the most beautiful form of irony. She laughed lightly thinking about her whole situation, he removed one hand from hers tilting her chin up to look at him.

‘I want you to break your rules, to dive head first, caution into the wind for me. However, if this is what you want, what you need, I will wait for you. Every day of this movie and every day after, I will wait until you’re ready, because out of all the people in this industry, you’re the first person I’ve met who is so disgustingly genuine. You’re endearing Y/N, and I can’t wait for you to be ready for me.’ He plainly confessed, placing a gentle kiss on her forehead, leaving her alone in the room, confused and full of emotions.

Currently I’m im the middle of choosing a name to go by, on my bio it says Amanda (on old nickname) but it just don’t fit :( I’m thinking maybe Mayve or Ella (play on my initials or my bday) . I do know what it’s like to be a chair for a cat tho. Loki and Thor love to climb onto shoulders (especially Thor, he’s a parrot) and more than a few time he’s climbed past my shoulders and onto my back and I went into child’s pose (basically like a turtle) where they just sat there all comfy. Like “ah. This is nice.” Where I’m like “sir? Please don’t use me as a fancy cushion.” I had to call for my ma to take him off of me. Just last week my father was a victim of Thor . Thor will climb your shoulders. He doesn’t care if he has permission, you will be a victim.

When my fam and I went to Disney my neighbor fed the cats and she said they looked so happy when they heard the door open but they got so sad when they realized that they weren’t us. I heard that and I was so sad like my poor babies :( so I thought they would be happy to see us when we got back……yeah they ignored us. Like they looked excited for a second and then straight up said “bitch you thought” and sashayed away. Like damn ok.

Loki is the second oldest and partially blind, he has access film over his eyes from when he was a baby and his mom didn’t remove it all the way. His name is Loki but he goes by many names such as

Loki bug, lokitty, lokat, lokitter, lokitten, all those but with an N instead of an L (Noki, nokitty, nokitten, etc) Tubby, Tubbers, Chonky, Chonkers, Mr Tubbs, Mr Chonky, Mr Chonkitten, Mr Meow, probably a few that I’m missing and occasionally fatass

He’s not even that big tbh he just has a pouch from being neutered and he’s part Maine coon so he’s a bit bigger but like his last nickname suggests, he is a fatass. None of you food is safe.

Did you see anything odd about that photo? How about the second one?

Just recently he stole my Italian sausage I came downstairs to eat and I crossed him around the house with a water bottle spraying him smh

But a few years ago Loki took a bit out of my Croissant bc he hopped up on the table. I was mad but whatever. Half an hour later my sister bring me a croissant and I’m like “awww maybe my sister loves me after all” but I see it’s already bitten out of and I ask her if she took a bite (I didn’t really care) but she says “no. But Loki did” like bitcH WTF. AND I ALREADY FINISHED IT TOO! SHE GAVE ME A NASTY ASS FLOOR CROISSANT THAT MY CAT ALREADY BIT OFF!

I had more pictures but tumblr is being weird and said no so I’ll share more next time. But! I did get a new video of aria drinking water (the first one was from 2019(? Maybe 2018) that I’ll share tomorrow!

Also I’m looking forward to more picks of Momo 😌

Mayve sounds cool tho i may suggest that but since my reply is long overdue you may have decided on a nickname and if that's the case i'd call you by that.

OMFG momo doesn't climb on my shoulders but i carry her like a baby. half of her body is anchored on my shoulder so she's looking through shoulders but honestly she hates being held or touched so most of the time she kicks me lmao BUT THAT PICTURE OF YOUR DAD OMG you know what recently whenever i carry momo the way i usually do (the one i explained earlier) she has learned a new trick (or a new way to cause me inconvenience) SHE DOES THAT she climbs on my back AND SITS. sometimes i stand for a couple of seconds with her on my back. i call my mom to see how bratty momo is but as a unbothered cat that she is SHE JUST CHILLS ON MY BACK. omg i NEED to show you a picture of us with her on my back!! i'll attach it on my next ask!! (i'm excited, can you feel it? lmao)

the disney trip is a bit sad 😭 i can imagine your cats with glossy round eyes with their little paws approaching the door only to be dismayed by an appearance of someone that isn't you 😭 that's why i can't entirely enjoy a trip without my cat knowing that she may be sad alone in the house esp since she's the only cat we keep inside the house (she is very tidy, potty trained, doesn't ruin furnitures, etc. almost like she's an elderly human turned cat lmao so we entrust the house to her) but lol the attitude they gave you when you returned back lmaooo I SWEAR THIS IS WHY I LOVE CATS they have individual personalities every cat is different from one another but almost all are like tsunderes 🤣 this is why i love cats so much!!

for me, the best nicknames are the ones that starts with N i literally read them outlout AND SHIT YOU NOTTT I SQUEALED BC IT SOUNDED SOOOO CUTE i have a shit ton of nicknames for Momo too! like, mot, motty, motmot, and recently ive been calling her (and she responds to it too) borky porky -- like the pig 😭 bc similar to your cat she has a pouch on her belly too bc of when she was neutered

THE CROISSANT AND SAUSAGE HAD ME LAUGHING HELPPPP I CAN IMAGINE YOU SPRAYING HIM WATER ACROSS THE HOUSE BC HE ATE YOUR FOOD IDK WHY BUT I'M LITERALLY LAUGHING RIGHT NOW GSNSBSKKS i bet your cat was running away from you with a cheeky look his face PLEASE THAT WOULD BE SO CUTEEE AND NOT AT YOU SURPRISED AND ANGRY BC HE ATE YOUR FOOD 😂😂 AND AND THE PICTURES!! the second one LITERALLY EYEING YOUR FOOD AND PLANNING ON HOW TO TAKE IT please your cats are adorable and hilarious and not to mention they videos you tagged me of!! first the weird way he drink and second... HE PLAYS FETCH? A CAT PLAYS FETCH??? HOW DID YOU TRAIN THEM TO DO THAT?? when i throw a toy momo just looks at it so i have to throw the toy at her and most of the time she ignores it or sometimes she bites it then loses interest vsnsbsnsb send tips please

also, momo doesn't fight with me over meat or seafood do you know what he fights for?....

vegetables

she's fucking weird i am telling you. TRIED AND TESTED when she's asleep but hears my mom take out the vegetables SHE LITERALLY RUSHES TO HER WITH HALF ASLEEP EYES AND ASKS FOR A LEAF TO MUNCH she doesn't finish it but she loves to eat vegetables and leafy green. some say it's the cat's way of keeping their bodies healthy?? or is it bc she's my cat and she's literally the copy cat (see what i did there? 😏) of me

i dont have recent pictures of momo but i do have photos of ching to show you. one afternoon after my practicum i was having my alone and quiet time at the veranda, eating snacks, and staring at the plants (usual introverted activities lol) when she suddenly appeared next to me. i was sitting on a cemented ledge and she sat next to me :( i found it adorable that she's quietly keeping me company as i take my time to distress. cats help me take off the load/stress i get from college and practicum (basically a job as an undregraduate student -- also the reason why i was inactive bc i was busy af :( )

anyway! here's clingy ching to brighten your day! :) i hope you had an awesome week and a great day! stay hydrated and dont skip a meal :D
