#I know not everyone loves Tom and Jerry as much as I do but i keep seeing these 3 things repeated and I believe they are not always true

[cypresswood3]

You know what. Lemme share my opinions on Malevolent shippers. Not the ships themselves. The people.

Starting off strong, Dollins shippers are somehow the nicest and coziest people out there. You guys sometimes come up with the craziest stuff but. You know the perfect balance between treating these characters and their traumas seriously AND writing them like an old classic Tom-and-Jerry-like cartoon. They are goofy and cute and smell like home. One's a killer for hire and the other is a tortured-by-eldrich-beings detective and you manage to make it into a romcom. I have nothing but respect for Dollins shippers. You are so good to your characters. Like an opposite of Kayne. You smell of fresh pie.

Parkthur shippers are like... the adults of the fandom? I'm not sure how to put it. Yall are mature. You explore parkthur to hell and back. The way you write their relationship is always full comradery and love in its purest form. Not traumabonded like Noel and Arthur, not dependant like blind faith, not brought together by trials like jarthur, but not quite as domestic as dollins. Parkthur is always very real and very human. I'm honestly a big fan of parkthur myself. Arthur's backstory was always the more interesting part of the lore for me (breaking my silence I've always loved Arthur more than John and it'll remain so). So you guys. You guys are the big siblings of the fandom.

Arthur and Noel shippers... I've honestly only seen it done as Arthur x Noel x John. And I love that. You guys hold so much love for Noel it almost makes me tear up. The way you write your stuff feels more of a Noel's good ending then jarthur's. And it's not a complaint in the slightest. You take jarthur and you fit Noel in so well and smooth he actually fixes them. You make Noel jarthur's home and family, and you make them his anchors. You guys are full of hope. When it comes to John x Noel (Arthur is there third wheeling or smth)... You guys are like dollins shippers witht their comfy domestic vibes, but you have an additional sprinkle of... healing. You love your John and Noel and treat them so so well, but it's less of a silly cartoony thing (like dollins) and more of a... story of rediscovery and, again, healing. You have a domestic vibe of a comfort book. Also you create the most insane things when you're horny /very pos.

Blind faith aka Arthur and Oscar shippers. Guys are you okay. It's a banger ship but guys. Guys how are we feeling. Have you tasted anything but tears in the last... forever? You create the most touching and soul crushing pieces of fan-creations but it takes you all your happiness to do so. You embrace the sad the same way Arkayne-ists embrace the horny. Even when you make them happy they're still engulfed in an aura of melancholy. You can write them in a good ending au and it still tastes bitter. And I don't mean it as a bad thing. You guys write Oscar and Arthur like they're doomed Sea and Moon yuri and I fuck with it. So hard. Yall are insanely talented. But also insanely sad. Do you guys want a cookie.

Arkayne. I'm convinced that all Arkayne shippers are actually Kayne's alternative accounts. Yall are ruthless but in the best way possible. Going through Malevolent you either defaultly ship jarthur or arkayne and I have nothing but awe for those whose heart calls for arkayne. I love your fics, guys. Having them in my browser history is incriminating but god. You really look at everyone else and cackle maniacally because you can do anything. Yall can go as crazy as humanly possible and that would still be Kayne. I love arkayne shippers because yall are genuinely so so fun. Yall are the type of people wh didn't drown their sims in pools. Because it was old and boring. Your ghosts were all colors of the rainbow because yall went overboard with your stuff. Honestly same.

Larson and Yellow shippers are quiet and almost unnoticeable but they make the most jaw-dropping gut-wrenching fanfiction known to man. They take Yellow and sink their teeth into him ruthlessly. Where John fans dissect him with care and patience, Yellow enjoyers tear him apart and drag the raw still-beating heart out of him. Whereas other shippers make stuff with hope, your works are embraced in a stench of doom. And it's sweet but in a way rotten flesh is sweet. You take Larson and Yellow and ask the question, can they see salvation and become better together? Then you make them try through blood and sweat and tears and tell them NO. And it leaves them both in agony. And it leaves me in agony. "Raw" is really the best word that comes to mind to describe you. I love you but please stop hurting me.

Larthur idk never saw anyone ship it but if someone does delete your account lmao. Freaks.

There is like a dozen more ships you can make but I've only yapped about the most prominent ones. Will make a part two if there's stuff I genuinely forgot or can yap about. It's 4 am please don't be hard on me if I missed something ultra obvious. It'll come to me.

And jarthur shippers. You think I forgot that don't you. I didn't. It's a fully conscious decision.

ranfren headcannons

I've done everything but posted headcannons and a fanfiction. This won't do. Here's some headcannons of mine! All of them aren't serious so don't take them that way d(>_･ ). Feel free to ask me about any other headcannons I'll definitely give more!

Randal

• if he has any pimples on his face he definitely picks at them untill they pop

• either is really good at math or sucks at math and hates it. (No in-between)(leaning towrds sucking at math more)

• has tear stains on his homework sometimes

• he bathes everyday dispite what people think. (Luther forces him too)

• his hair gets really oily. He has tried to cook with the oil his hair produced once. Nobody ate dinner that night.

• if he's frustrated and you go to poke him he'll scream on top of his lungs, but like the scream that goes from normal yelling to banshee screeching. "stop touCHING MEEEEĚĘƏƏ!!!!"

• gets in a lot of internet arguments about things that don't matter at all ("I think you'll find it's 'whom'.")

• he'd get so mad if he ask you to hold his glasses, and you proceed to carelessly get your fingerprints all over them.

• draws with those "how to draw anime" guid books.

• if he ever took a driving test, he would have already failed the moment he opens the car door.

• loves kraft mac and cheese, double points if it's in shapes of popular marketable characters.

• now thinking of it, if he was a pasta dish he would be kraft mac and cheese.

• bites his toe nails off (gross) Luther tried to get him to stop but he probably does the same thing when no one is around.

• sneezes weirdly. Like..."ah...ah...AH CHOOwoowoowoowoo..." and shakes his head. Or if he's covering it in his elbow it'll sound like a trumpet horn.

Luther

• he can dance but it's weird.

• if you tell him a joke he'll turn it into a life lesson.

• he wins every staring contest. However if your eyes start watering he'll get worried and start begging you to blink.

• treats women (and everyone) with so much respect, but he won't hesitate to punch a women if he really has to.

• *shakes his indext finger* "no no no"

• Randal probably tried to set him up on a blind date, he didn't like that. It was very awkward to say the least.

• genuinely gets happy when there are bagels at the function.

• when asked for advice, it'll sound like he's going to say something really meaningful and life changing, but then does a complete 180. "Oh, you think your ugly? Well people will have their opinions about you and ...well... you aren't the best thing to look at. But there's worst out there ♡."

• I can see him gobbling up some cheese and broccoli.

• has a walk in closet filled with clothes and accessories he doesn't wear.

• he 100% definitely has the goofiest giggle in the planet.

• eats ice cream with his front teeth.

Nyon

• I will stand by this till the day I die, he's really funny. He has a really good sense of humor. But I could also seem him not understanding jokes too. But at the same TIIIMMEE I feel like he'd be naturally funny.

• he knows lots of slang and pop culture due to watching TV a lot and probably quotes stuff in his head. (Maybe out loud if he was talking to you)

• has a lot of opinions, will never say them out loud, even when asked.

• he's the smartest out of everyone, including Luther.

• easily amused. please give him one of those little fishy nightlights. He'd enjoy looking at it so much.

• he's good at card games and Nyen doesn't like that. (Nyen has stabbed him over games of uno)

• has a really funny looking smile. (There's that one drawing in the Christmas comic where he's smiling weird after he saw Luther's reaction to the fire place tape he made for him)

Nyen

• listens to death metal but then listens to a jpop song right after. ("Can't let gang know I fw this")

• good at math, sucks at reading.

• loves hearing about drama and will be nosy.(come on man he loves Judge Judy and romance novels)

• sounds like Tom from Tom and Jerry when he yells.

• he calls himself "The Tom Cat" and (canonically) "Top of the pets in the house hold" which is practically the same as "I'm the alpha" so he's probably has said that.

• sucks at card games. Will legit end up with half of the pack of cards in his hands in the middle of an uno game.

• actually the weakest of them all. (I won't go into all that right now. But I can definitely beat him up in a fight, just sayin.)

•him and Nyon probably have times where they stay up and chit chat for a bit before they sleep, Example (from my old notes I had):

Nyon high on weed:...why do we call oranges..oranges...but we don't call apples...reds..??..

Nyen:....sh*t...you got a point... does that mean we would call lemons: short yellows and bananas: long yellows so it doesn't get confusing?...

*they then discuss this for an hour or so*

• Snores really really LOUD. Sounds like a car.

• oddly very ticklish I bet.

~~~~~~

That's all I have now. It's 2 in the morning and I'm falling asleep. I might write other characters headcannons later.

"I'm going to sleep" -bop it

[alaskan-wallflower]

do you have any other Steve and Ponyboy headcanons? 🙏

(No pressure)

oh boy oh boy do i!!

okay so again, the reason they beef is because neither of them likes sharing soda and they’re both jealous pricks. but they don’t hate each other.

everyone says two bit would be the one darry calls in an emergency but face it, two bit can’t take care of a fish. steve’s responsible at least.

so steve’s usually the one who ends up taking care of pony when he’s sick or hurt and soda/darry can’t be there

sometimes if pony’s really not doing well, especially after johnny’s death, steve will take him on car rides to clear his mind. it works for steve and surprisingly, it works for ponyboy.

steve also lets pony see some of the cars him and soda work on

i think part of the reason pony thinks steve hates him is cause steve has mad rbf and looks high key unfriendly as shit, and pony’s the kind of guy who cannot read facial expressions at all so he’s always just like “the fuck is your problem, randle?” and steve’s just standing there confused as hell cause he wasn’t even doing anything

they’re both artists! i’ve made numerous headcanons about steve using it as a coping mechanism, and then getting ponyboy in on it too, but i really do think the two of them bond through art

steve doesn’t really know how to be soft, but sometimes if pony can convince him that life isn’t all about going fast and that it’s okay to take your time and just relax for a a moment, and that it’s okay to sit down and watch the sunset…steve feels like he can be at peace.

when johnny died, steve really took ponyboy under his wing, especially at school because now, it was just him, two-bit and ponyboy. steve makes sure pony is eating and he’ll take him to the dx sometimes since it’s technically within walking distance

the best way i can describe their beef is greg and rodrick heffley…or tom and jerry. the two of them don’t hate each other, not at all. the beef is one sided as fuck too, like steve doesn’t genuinely despise pony, and even with pony like pony doesn’t want steve’s head on a stick. they just have a complicated relationship.

steve is sure to be at all of ponyboy’s track meets. part of it is because whenever steve had anything going on, he had nobody to cheer him on. he knows things get busy with soda and darry, and he doesn’t want pony to think nobody cares, so he supports pony as much as he can

i mentioned this but steve has a cat named diesel and that cat likes pony 100x more than it likes steve and it hugs steve eternally

pony makes fun of steve for being afraid of ladybugs a lot

steve would lowkey be the “he asked for no pickles” guy because he sees pony as a little brother and also has anger issues

steve encouraged pony to be in stage crew when he got to the high school, and the pair of them actually made a very good team

they really do love each other a lot, but sometimes they just get on each others nerves. even so, they’d both climb mount everest for the other, even if they’d wanna push the other right off as soon as they got up there.

Name: The Hanker

Debut: Hank for Hunka

Uh-oh! The Hankwatch is going off, and you know what that means!

The Hanker is a cultural icon, dare I say phenomenon, to such a degree that I'm surprised we've never covered him before. Everyone remembers tuning into Cartoon Network and meeting him through the TV special "Big Woods Blues"–originally a Tom & Jerry short, the sudden closure of the Van Beuren studios meant they had to find a new star to, in their words, "crave that cheddar." Luckily, while passing through a delicatessen, Fred Barbera saw the most lovely blob of cheese, and decided to make a character based off that; the rest, is history!

The rest, is history!

It was a surprisingly formula compared to other cereal mascots: instead of starting with stealing cereal or saving it, each one would begin with children eating junk food in a field, only for the Hankwatch to start chiming offscreen. Everyone remembers the sound it would make, less like a pocket watch and more like the droning noise of an old church bell: DING. DONG. DING. DONG. DING. DONG. DING.

Every time the watch would ring, we'd laugh and laugh at the kids who had to 'feed' the Hankerer; the only way to do that, of course, was by eating a hunk of cheese themself. While the Hunkwatch was almost always offscreen, I always had a particular fascination, however, with the ones that did pan to the Hunkerwatch, but everyone remembers what happens to the kids in those commercials.

The rules seemed simple to play at first. Whenever the Hungrier chimed his tune ("I hanker for a hunk of the slab, a slice [...] I hanker for a hunk of cheese"), you and your friends scrambled to eat as much cheese as possible until you were the last one remaining. Promoting a healthy diet, it's easy to see why he rose to the top of iconic animated film stars!

But I think we can all agree the "wagon wheel challenge" commercials were always the most intriguing. He'd demand a wagon for his wheel so he could finally get wed, but each wheel would be absent until the kid ate an entire wheel of cheese. What was particularly peculiar was how the cheese started out moldy to the point of almost rotten, yet seemed to become lively and good as new again as the kid ate more and more; the kid itself, meanwhile, greatly decomposed. It was especially strange watching it happen to someone right next to you, but they'd always refuse your help, so, nothing you can do, y'know?

Being a cultural icon, it's no wonder he's leant his image to media of all sorts. The GameBoy game trilogy was always my favorite. Everyone remembers controlling him to move across sticky kitchen floors and dirty refridgerators just to find some cheese to eat, regardless of taste or quality. It taught kids a valuable lesson about eating healthy, and its consequences. The Hunter doesn't want you to stifle your diet, he wants you to be free to eat whatever cheeses you want, whenever. It was such a beautiful message.

Everyone remembers the Cheese Craze of the 90's, following Henker's revival in "Hunka Hanker," where kids were free to see him once again. They even started making commercials of him, freeing him from his original video animation hell. Each level had you climb up ladders and capture keys to rescue the princess, only for her to find out what happens when the Hankwatch goes off. When I think of that ending, I can only laugh and laugh.

Live action reboots are all the rage these days, and though his popularity has plummeted, he's expected to reappear in the live action remake of "White Cheddar Blues," where he will be portrayed in glorious organs and bones. It's said that the ending will finally reveal what happens when the last child eats the final wagon wheel, so keep an eye wagon peeled!

People take this for granted now, but it's kind of wild this boss from a seemingly one-off Mario game got to reappear so often, isn't it? He gets to have two (POPULAR!) subfranchises all to himself even! Even Bowser barely if ever gets his own games, yet this common mook does? Everyone remembers when these were new and garnered mixed attention, but you don't see anyone complaining about them anymore! Guess you can say the cheese is in their mouth now!

Initial fears that the combination of storm damage and flood waters might produce a "toxic soup" in downtown New Orleans have been downplayed by experts in environmental science. While the threat of pikauba, bergenost, and Humboldt fog is certainly increased by the contamination of the flood waters and sewage, many of the chemical companies located in or near New Orleans survived the storm without spilling dangerous contaminants in the water. Of course, care should be taken not to ingest any of the flood water.

Now, as the Hanker would say, "Ta-ta! And so long, for now!"

Tom and Jerry

school clown!Hoshi x top student!reader

Synopsis: After crossing the rubicon with your annoying classmate Hoshi "relationship" between the two of you improved. However you bump heads once more at Mingyu's game night party

Warnings: plot with smut, enemies to lovers, high IQ (f.) x low IQ (m.), slight angst, Mafia game at Mingyu's house, classmates, semi-public, banter, dirty talk, oral (f. receiving), brief mentions of other members, crack, Hoshi acting cray during the game, (no questionable fashion choices mentioned)

WC: 1.2K

Status: part 2 (ongoing), read part 1 here

masterlist / requests / taglist

Why should it be awkward after fucking your arch nemesis? Well, isn't that what all the books and movies want us to believe?

- The female lead got into dragged out moral battle with herself after giving in to the detestable male lead.. Making audience yawn. Questioning if this is who she really is, questioning God's intentions - ultimately running away never to return again. Revolutionary.

In reality things didn't have to be so black or white. There was no need to go thru the emotional rollercoaster of blaming it on your childhood trauma or turning it into religious guilt. Ultimately, we were put on this Earth to have fun. Why beat ourselves up for doing something that we actually enjoyed?

Living in the grey area had its perks.

Improved relationship with your desk-mate Hoshi was one of them. The steamy encounter in locker room visibly dissolving tension between two rivals.

You were in higher spirits than usual.

Well that was fun, didn't think he had it in him. Why was I acting like a bitch before? Guess I just needed the attitude fucked out of me. Kekekekekek

"What are you scheming down there, hm?" walking in Soonyoung saw you hunched over the desk cackling like an anime villain planning to take over the world.

"Wouldn't you like to know." pushing up non existent glasses reflecting the light for dramatic effect.

"I would love to know." towering over you

"Pfff, you wouldn't understand even if I told you!!" springing up the chair, sticking your tongue out at him

"See you at the game tonight~"you spiralled out the classroom in a way that resembled category 5 hurricane. Leaving Hoshi flabbergasted.

"Wasn't I supposed to be the crazy one?" rubbing his chin in disbelief, your wicked laugh echoed thru the halls

//

And exactly what game were you talking about?

Of course the quarterly Mafia get-together. You've been told that everybody gathers up in class president Mingyu's house once every three months. It's your first time attending.

Please, please, please give me a role! I can't stand being a boring citizen - eyes shut, you prayed as the host passed behind you. Tapping you on the shoulder.

"The mafia has been chosen."

silence

"The police officer has been chosen."

silence

"The doctor has been chosen."

//

You killed the doctor first. Something in Seungkwan's proud eyes gave him away. He liked to play the saviour and once again it got the best of him.

"Why am I always the one getting killed first?? Why do you hate me soo much" pouting, hands crossed on the chest

"That's what happens when people had enough of your shit. Bang, bang, bang!" Hoshi collapsed in front of Kwan, seemingly coughing up blood "better keep your head down next time.." clinging to Boo's ankle before theatrically releasing his final breath. Freezing on the floor.

"You! Shut the hell up!" kicking his foot, trying to free himself from Hoshi's iron claw

//

Citizens were dropping like flies. Only making the sinister look in your eyes grow bigger and bigger.

And so did Hoshi's craziness.

"it's MINGYU, HE'S THE MAFIA!!!" pointing at Mingyu, shivering in the corner, probably questioning why he invited this madman in the first place. He was voted off.

"Everyone, WAIT JUST LISTEN TO ME...!" human sized worm was now wriggling in Joshua's direction

With every nonsense spat from Hoshi's mouth, you could feel your braincells dying.

"MWAHAHA, YOU THOUGHT I WOULDN'T NOTICE THAT LOOK IN YOUR EYES, CHAN?? CAN'T FOOL ME!!!" backflipping to the opposite side of the room, attacking the youngest

Idiot. Can't fool you now, huh? We'll see 'bout that.

"What a big mouth you have over there, Kwon," raising to your feet, cackle of devil ready to deliver divine retributions "would be a shame if someone shut IT." you shot your thumb down making all the remaining civilians vote in unity. Crowd vailing.

Heh, so this is how it feels to be a roman emperor - sentencing slaves to their death for entertainment of the colosseum.

//

Not long after you were the sole survivor

"Mafia WON! Standing ovation for the lady!" clap clap clap host crowning you MVP of the game.

"Thank you, couldn't done it without you." palpable wink in direction of the fuming hamster, now seeking comfort between Mingyu's humongous man-titties. Once enemies now reunited in shared hardship

Misery loves company, doesn't it? Chuckling to yourself

Hoshi Kwon (19) left the mortal world behind right then and there - figuratively speaking of course. Utterly humiliated by you, again. He was supposed to SHINE! He was supposed to find the mafia! Finally got a role of policeman but every guess that he made tonight was incorrect

"You win. For now." darkness possessing his amicable face

Familiar knot taking shape in your stomach

//

DU! DU! DU!

Heavy knocks on the bathroom door

"Just a moment!" drying your hands

DU! DU! DU! DU! DU!

"Hey! I said I am coming..!" swinging the door open

"Oh? I wondered when you'd show up." smirk looming up your lips as Hoshi shoved you back inside

"Smart girl. Wanted to see me that badly?" there was nothing sweet about the way he closed the door shut

"At least one of us," shooting back "are you here to serve your sentence?" tracing finger on his lips

"Didn't you say somebody should shut my mouth? Then, sit on it."

Ah and there it was the residual craziness clouding his judgement. Ain't gonna argue with a dude that has big brown eyes. Whatever you say, beautiful.

You weren't wet yet but it wasn't hard to guess that in exactly two minutes you will be

"Hahah- what?" you were just joking, didn't expect to actually do it here. At house party? Is there a cliché more american? Neither of you were an american but you'd rather be caught dead than doing something so mainstream.

"Did I stutter? You always talk a big game in public but I want to see how brave you are now." hot breath already caught between your thighs, hungry kisses biting at your soft flesh making you whine. Guess they didn't call him tiger for nothing

"We are in Minguy's bathroom.." voice disappearing into thin air the moment his starving mouth made contact with your, now wet, private area

"And? didn't seem to mind the locker room last time" Hoshi's swirling tongue rolling over THE spot of your clit

"s-shut up, you idi- OOOOH" a cry hardly appropriate for friendly game night. The sensation making you drunk on his expert movements.

"Oh? I didn't know top students had such a dirty mouth" working harder and more relentlessly than before, the train of needy moans couldn't be stopped anymore.

And there you were. Once again with a good for nothing dude between your legs. Making you feel things nobody before him managed. How does he know exactly what you liked? Was it the environment? First the locker room now friend's house...A combination perhaps?

Taste of forbidden fruit is not easily forgotten,

but who doesn't love a good enemies to lovers trope?

Hello

My old introduction message was not very good so I’m gonna do a new one.

But first off, don't send me donation asks. I do not have enough money or a big enough following to where it will help you, and the only thing it’s gonna accomplish is making people feel bad without actually doing anything. If you send one, it will be deleted.

Hello. My name is AroaceGarlicBreadLover/AceLoverofGarlicBread but you can also just call me Fabbe, I am an INFP aroace, and this is my blog where I will primarily talk about aspec stuff, but possibly other things as well rarely. And even though this blog is primarily intended to be for aspec people, basically anyone is accepted here as long as you don’t discriminate against others. However, I mostly direct all my posts at aspec people (Such as most of my polls being directed at aspec people specifically and having one option for non-aspec people in general), so you may feel a bit left out if you’re not.

https://en.pronouns.page/@GarlicBreadAAAAA

I am an introvert, and not very good at being social and talking to people, so i may be a bit awkward to talk to and I’m not very self confident so I often change my mind instantly after posting something and delete it right after so if you see me having posted something and then it’s gone, that’s probably why, and if it’s not deleted then I have most likely edited the post several times (Such as this entire part being something I put in after posting this)

This I tend to write very long messages very often to make sure I convey everything I wanna convey, so sorry about that.

My interests outside of mentioning that I’m aroace every 5 seconds are mostly writing stories, Playing Minecraft (Mostly being in fan-made life series if you know what that is, but it’s pretty niche so I doubt anyone will), and anything related to Undertale/Deltarune (I love UT/DR so much, I am absolutely obsessed with it), including AUs and such, and I’m also interested in just playing other video games as well, but Minecraft, Undertale, and Deltarune are my favorite ones.

I am openly Aroace both irl and online, so basically everyone who knows me pretty well also knows that I’m aroace at this point, although no one except my close friends and such in my school knows, as some people there are a bit queerphobic. I live in Europe.

I am okay with suggestive jokes and stuff like that, but only from other people who are also minors. People that aren’t minors can still follow and interact with me, but then don’t make suggestive jokes please.

Hope you have a good time here!

LORE (Not really):

I have 3 worms thanks to i-give-worms

I have also have giant orange fuzzy worm pet

I have an apple

I also have too many kiwis - 502

I have a curse where all my Garlic Bread also contains onions, but it can be fixed by using silver plates

I have a strong shield that repels kiwis

I was given 5 nekomimi (Which means with cat ears if google didn’t lie to me) kids, named Karl, Max, Jerry, Tom and Hajime. I am not prepared for children but yeahh… when they grow up I’ll put them in my Garlic Bread factory or smth. Apparently they go crazy over cat nip…

I have a really big box of garlic chicken tenders

I have a spray bottle

Selling hoodies with silhouettes of purple bats!! 8 left in stock!! They cost 2 Garlic Bread each!!

I have a skeleton skull that seems to possess the ghost of a French sailor

I have a snek and a birb :D

[kimbappykidding]

At first you only did it to tease Bahiyyih.

Don't get the wrong idea, you did think Kai was good-looking and liked him but seeing Bahiyyih's face while you flirted with him was so funny you had to keep doing it.

You and Bahiyyih were famously a Tom and Jerry of Kep1er. You loved Bahiyyih a lot but were very different. She was a lot more composed, quiet and thoughtful...you were none of those things. You got told the reason you'd debuted was because of your personality and took that as a compliment. You were loud, charming and confident. So it was always a clashing of worlds when you and Bahiyyih came together and you loved nothing more than to tease her or push her buttons and one day a new idea of how to do that came to you.

You were at a party and loving it! The idol life was still new to you so every party was like an insane VIP event you'd snook into and Yujin was constantly having to remind you that this was your life now but the excitement still hadn't left you yet. TxT were also here and they'd always been so kind and supportive to you from the start because of Bahiyyih's brother. You knew him the most out of the boys but hadn't really spoken to him or the guys one-on-one ever. So when you joined the line for the bar and Yeonjun waved you to them near the front you were pleasantly surprised.

They asked what you wanted and then added it to their order. "Don't worry I can get my own" you said feeling bad but all the guys brushed that comment away. "It's okay Kai's paying for it" Beomgyu explained and your eyes widened "I can't make you do that!" you cried but Kai just smiled at you "don't be silly of course you can. I'd act like this if I saw any of my sister's friends". "Really?" you asked smiling "you're a real modern-day gentleman?" challenging him slightly. "I like to think so" Kai replied and Yeonjun nodded "yeah he is pretty nice, that's why all our female staff loved him so much". "Isn't that just because he's cute?" you asked and then paused because that came across as way flirtier than you meant. Beomgyu and Taehyun burst out laughing and Kai blushed. Yeonjun and Soobin looked very proud and you laughed too. "Sorry I didn't mean for that to come across so forward" you told Kai who shook his head "don't apologise, it's not like it's a bad thing to hear a pretty girl thinks you're cute". You smirked "are you sure you're Bahiyyih's brother?" which made Kai laugh and you happened to glance back to see Bahiyyih staring at you.

That's when the idea came to you and you turned back to Kai who seemed very pleased by your comment. "Kai is full of surprises!" Beomgyu told you and you smiled sipping on the drink he'd just gotten you "I'm starting to see that, thanks for the drink Kai. I'll get the next one and totally not as an excuse to talk to you again" and with a wink walked away.

When you got back to your table the girls could tell something had happened...the TxT guys clapping Kai on the back and staring after you with huge smiles was probably a bit of a giveaway.

"What was going on over there?" Xiaoting asked and you smiled "oh nothing just chatting to Kai and his friends". "Looked a little more than that" Bahiyyih said and you smiled "hey I can't help it if your brother's hot" and Bahiyyih paused "I'm sorry he's what?". "He's hot!" you cried "everyone knows it, right girls?" you asked looking for backup but even Dayeon didn't dare to agree. So you were on your own but didn't mind that. "Well they won't admit it but Bahiyyih your brother's hot and I think I've got a shot with him". "Got a shot?" she asked "so are you trying to...wait never mind. I don't want to know what you want with him". You smirked "I'll keep you in suspense" and caught Kai's eye across the room. He blushed and shot you a small smile which you returned. You caught Bahiyyih watching and gave her a big smile. This was going to be so much fun.

Bahiyyih watched Kai with you the rest of the night and could tell he was into you. The two of you spoke a few more times and Kai's eyes were glued to you each time. He laughed at everything you said and you'd definitely taken an interest in him which he loved. Out of all her members, Bahiyyih supposed you were pretty much Kai's perfect type so she shouldn't be surprised...but it still took her back when Kai came to her about you a week later.

They'd met up for breakfast to discuss their sister's birthday and what they were going to get her. Once that was done Kai shot her a look "so Y/n" Kai said and it took everything for Bahiyyih not to react. "Yeah?" she asked trying to act calm and Kai looked down shyly "is she seeing anyone?" he asked coyly. Bahiyyih hesitated "why? Are you into her?". Kai blushed and Bahiyyih gasped "omg you are! You fancy my member!". "I wouldn't say fancy just she's really pretty and we got talking the other night. I like her confidence and don't remember you saying anything bad about her". "Because there's nothing bad to say" Bahiyyih admitted "she's cute, funny and talented. Sure she can be a little loud and reckless but I've never found her to be too much" she said begrudgingly. Kai smiled "do you think she might be into me?". Bahiyyih nodded "yes" but didn't elaborate and then feeling the obligation to be the good sister she added "I'll send you her number".

Kai had texted you before Bahiyyih had even got home from their dinner. She came to warn you and found you already in a string of texts with him. "I'm so touched" you told her as she went to leave your room and she froze. "Why?" she asked and you smiled "because you could've forbidden him from texting me but you actually gave him my number. You must think I'm such a great person to set me up with your brother" you said grinning at her and Bahiyyih rolled her eyes. "Sure if you want to see it that way go for it" she said "can I just ask you one thing?" and you nodded "sure!". "Just don't hurt him" she said and you paused "what? What makes you think I would?". "I don't know at first I couldn't tell if this was all to get a rise out of me but if it is please stop. Kai may seem strong and hides it well but he's vulnerable and soft. A girl like you could destroy him". "A girl like me?" you asked and Bahiyyih nodded "confident, cool, sexy. Someone who has her pick of guys" she sighed "don't break his heart please?". "I won't" you promised "I have no intention to hurt him...atleast in a bad way" you said with a wink and Bahiyyih groaned but your joke did its job, it lightened the mood.

You and Kai texted for a week before you suggested meeting up. It wasn't anything deep, you just asked if he wanted to grab a coffee when you had a longer lunch break and he agreed to help you pass the time. Plus you were still getting a kick from being friends with a member's brother and Bahiyyih's reaction when you announced you were leaving to see Kai made you smile all the way to the Hybe building. Kai offered to come to you but you fancied a walk and a nosy around Hybe. Kai had given your name to the man at the front desk and you were let straight through. You took the elevator up to the correct floor and ping, you were here.

The doors opened and there you were! Kai's heart did a little leap because he'd been nervous about this since you planned it and now here you were! You shot him a big happy smile and walked confidently over to him. "Hey, thanks for having me over!" and Kai smiled "oh it's not problem, if you ever need to waste some time just let me know". You nodded "but spending time with you is never wasting time" and walked into the cafe without any hesitation. Kai followed just a second behind you and watched as you took everything in. "It's a pretty nice cafe and not too busy so we can sit anywhere" Kai explained, feeling like he was stating the obvious but you nodded. "How about by the window?" you asked and Kai followed you nodding his head.

You both went up to order and you ordered first and moved to the other side of the till to get your drink. Kai was waiting to pay for his drink when your presence became known.

"Who let you in?" Kai heard someone ask aggressively and worried some security person had thought you'd snook in. He turned around panicked, but saw it was Enhypen or specifically Jay, Jake and Sunghoon. They were all around you but you had a smile on your face so seemed fine. Regardless Kai quickly paid and rushed over to find you were explaining the situation.

You saw Kai and smiled "see, here he is!" and the guys turned to look at Kai. "Did you really invite her in here or is she lying like she always does?" Jay asked and Kai felt himself bristle. "Yes I invited her here and she's never lied to me". Jay paused but you and the others laughed. "See! You're clearly the problem" you said pushing your way to Kai's side "now you owe me an apology!" you said to Jay. "I'm sorry" he said smiling sweetly "I just figured you were here to see me".

Kai's eyes widened slightly at the flirting but you just snorted "please you'd be the last person I'd be here to see" and you turned to Kai "we're all in that 2002 group chat right? I know them from there". Kai nodded as if he hadn't stopped checking that chat a few weeks after being added to it. "Jake and Sunghoon are good friends" you said smiling at the two boys and purposefully leaving Jay out. When he started to protest such treatment you simply said you and Kai had to go and steered a very relieved Kai away from the group.

Things got better once you sat down and actually started talking. Kai's heartbeat returned to a normal level and he realised how much he liked having your attention on him when someone else stole it.

Fromis_9 spotted you when they came in for a coffee and they all rushed to greet you. Apparently, you knew more Hybe members than Kai and they all gushed over you and demanded you come visit them too. "Yeah why does Kai get a visit from you and we don't?" Jiwon asked and Kai blushed at the question but you just smiled. "Because Kai's special" and gave him a small wink. Kai was on cloud nine and even waved as all the girls walked away.

"Wow you know everyone!" he remarked when his brain started functioning again and you laughed. "Yeah I can't even deny it! The girls claim I'm a natural social butterfly and I think they're right. I just love people and start conversations with everyone around me. That's how I become friends with so many people". Kai nodded "wow I can't even imagine that, I'm not the most outgoing person". "Nonsense! You were so friendly when I met you at the bar!" you said and Kai shrugged "yeah but I had the guys with me. I can be quiet on my own". "Well good things you'll always have people with you huh?" you asked and Kai hoped you were insinuating you'd be around him more. "Plus it's nice to be a little introverted, I can be like that too. When I get home I just like to hide in my room for a few hours and be alone. You can't always be on the go and it's nice to do nothing sometimes". Kai was so relieved you said that and nodded along enthusiastically "I couldn't agree more".

Your lunch break just flew by and before you knew it, you had to head back to work. "You know, you're a very nice person to be around" you said as Kai walked you to your building and he blinked "I am?". You nodded "you're simultaneously chill and warm. As in you're very calming but also nice. It's a nice mix". Kai smiled "nobody's ever told me that before but I'm glad you feel that way". "So would you like to meet again?" you asked "maybe spend more time together on a date or something?". Kai's eyes widened and he nodded vigorously as his mouth seemed unable to catch up with his brain. "Yes I'd love that!" he finally said and you laughed "great! Text me?" and Kai nodded "definitely". With a cute laugh, you waved to him and disappeared into your building. Kai let out a large cheer and then covered his mouth, worried you might've heard him. You did but thought it was funny.

When you got back to work you walked inside with a bounce in your step and Bahiyyih looked at you. "You're in a good mood" Dayeon said and you smiled "I had a good break" and that was all you said about your cafe date but it was enough. Bahiyyih heard you had an official date with Kai the next week and was nervous all over again. She just had to hope you'd keep your promise.

Kai was very surprised when you said you wanted to go to a museum for your first official date. From your personality he expected you'd want to go to some bar or loud party but you explained they'd added a few new exhibits since you'd last been and that you liked the environment. So pleasantly surprised, Kai met you outside on a crisp autumn morning. He spotted you coming as soon as you came around the corner but pretended to be on his phone so as to not seem too eager (even though he was). You called his name and came right over to him confidently. "Hey it's good to see you" you smiled going in for a hug and Kai hugged you back. "You too! I always loved museums but haven't been to this one so in excited". You smiled "then let's not keep you in suspense any longer!" and led him inside.

Kai remembered Yeonjun saying ages ago that with social events, it's not where you go but who you go with that makes it enjoyable and Kai had thought he was wrong...until you proved him otherwise. You made going to a museum such an exciting enjoyable thing and Kai wasn't even sure how! You were just so funny and charismatic. You knew exactly when to crack and joke and also when to be quieter and he loved it. You laughed a lot and Kai liked that. You weren't too serious and seemed to just go with the flow. He could see how you'd got chosen for the group and everyone who came into contact with you seemed charmed by you. He felt lucky to be out on a date with you and whenever you smiled at him his stomach did backflips.

You went to dinner together afterwards and Kai got to ask you more about your life and he found you fascinating. You'd done so much and seemed to throw yourself into any situation with determination and optimism. You'd become a kpop idol by chance. You auditioned for the group purely because your friend dared you to and you actually got called back to the next stage! You hadn't prepared any song and just sang your favourite one. When they asked why you wanted to become an idol you were honest and said you hadn't planned to come today but it looked fun. Kai had personally planned for ages for his audition and loved the idea of you just showing up randomly and killing it. He found your confidence so attractive and honestly thought everything about you was hot. You stayed talking for 2 hours before Kai had to leave to go to a fitting and he must've been very obvious in not wanting to leave because you asked him out for a second date right there and then. Kai of course said yes.

Bahiyyih of course remembered the day of your date and when you came into work the next day she was eyeing you trying to work out how it had been. Finally, Hikaru asked how everyone's day off had been and Bahiyyih leaned in expectantly. "It was good" you smiled "I had my date with Kai and I won't talk about it too much Bahiyyih don't worry but it went well". The girls all began to cheer but didn't get much out of you which was typical. The one-time Bahiyyih wanted you to talk about her brother you didn't. You did say you had a second date next week though so she knew it had gotten off to a good start.

2 weeks later TxT were at an event. Kai was calmly watching the different idols file into the party when Beomgyu hit him. "Hey Kai it's your girlfriend" Beomgyu cried and Kai's hand reached out and slapped him. "Shhhh we've only been on 2 dates!" he cried and Beomgyu gasped "I was joking she's not even here". "Oh that's okay then" Kai said and Beomgyu glared "for you!" massaging his arm. "You did provoke him" Yeonjun said and Taehyun nodded.

You actually did enter the party a few minutes later and Kai's breath caught but you didn't spot him straightaway. You were chatting with a few guys from Ateez and his expression must've given away his thoughts because Yeonjun laughed. "Don't worry she's just friends with Wooyoung and Jongho". Kai smiled and tried to laugh it off "what? Who is? Oh you mean Y/n?" before realising it wasn't working. "You think?" he asked and Yeonjun nodded "yeah Wooyoung's mentioned her before, plus she's friends with tons of guys so no reason to think she's interested in them in particular!". Yeonjun realised that might not have helped the situation when he saw Kai's face. "What Yeonjun means is she's just a social person, hanging out with someone doesn't have to mean anything" Taehyun explained. "Then does she just think I'm another friend?" Kai asked feeling like an idiot.

The guys all rushed to assure him that wasn't the case but Beomgyu (still feeling a bit pouty about his sore arm) figured the best way to get rid of Kai's doubts was to get you in front of him. As you came nearer their group he turned and called "oh hey Y/n!" loudly making you look over at them. Kai went pink as you looked at him and smiled. You said something to Ateez and they nodded as you left them and came over.

"Hey Beomgyu! Any reason you shouted my name out like that?" you called out. "I'm just so happy to see you!" he said and you smiled "hmmm so It was because you were trying to make Kai blush or anything right? Because that's not nice and I'm sure you wouldn't like it if someone did it to you". "Nobody can make me blush sweetie" Beomgyu replied and you smiled "really?" and stepped closer. "What are you doing?" Beomgyu asked but you cut him off, putting your arms around his neck. "Wow you're really good looking Beomgyu. You're the perfect balance between beauty and masculinity. You've got a great body and your arms look amazing. Your skin is just flawless, your eyes sparkle so much and your lips...." you trailed off looking at them and biting your own before smiling "they just look delicious, can I have a taste?". Beomgyu went bright red and began stuttering while the guys busied themselves laughing except for Kai who was stunned, turned on and a little jealous all at once. Luckily though you turned away from Beomgyu quickly and looked at Kai "Hey, want to get a drink?". He nodded "sure!" and you led him away linking your arm through his.

You stayed together for the rest of the night and Kai was really pleased you wanted to spend time with him so publically. You weren't joined at the hip, both his members, yours and a bunch of idols you knew fluttered in but you never went far from him and carried on chatting to him all night. He liked being around you and although he was growing more and more comfortable with you that excited feeling never went away which made him happy.

You asked Kai if he wanted to grab some air with you about 3 hours in and he happily stepped outside with you. The two of you found a bench and sat down together. "I can't believe haven't told you this but you look really beautiful" Kai said and you smiled "thanks I like outfits like this" you said looking down at your beautiful trousers "they make me feel powerful without worrying about my ass hanging out like I do with stage outfits". Kai paused "yeah I would definitely hate for that to happen to me on stage" and you laughed. "You look really nice tonight too" you said "but now I can get the image of you in a miniskirt out of my head". "Hey I'd pull it off! I have nice legs" Kai said and he went to move his leg onto the bench when you stopped him with a hand on his arm. You smiled "I believe you, you don't have to prove it. You seem to have nice everything" and you gave him a once over "nice eyes, nice smile, nice hair" you said "nice lips". You looked up at him as you said that and Kai got your meaning and leaned down to kiss you.

The second you kissed him back Kai knew for sure you did like him and he was on top of the world! This beautiful girl wanted him and he sure wanted you. It was of course your first kiss as a couple and Kai loved how natural it felt. Thinking back, he couldn't believe he'd been the one to move first. Sure you'd pretty much set it up for him to follow but he was still impressed he had that confidence. It was pretty simple though, he kissed you because he wanted to and there had been nothing else on his mind at that moment.

It was a good kiss too. Kai had figured with you he might be a little out of his depth but he wasn't. You seemed more experienced than him but he kept up well, fuelled by his feelings for you and when you both pulled back he wasn't the only one flushed.

"That was nice...really nice" you smiled and Kai agreed. He wanted to keep kissing you but you rested your head against his shoulder and he really just wanted to make you happy so wrapped an arm around you and relaxed. It was the best night of his life!

The guys could all tell something had happened because Kai was beaming and in an excellent mood the rest of the night. He laughed at all of Beomgyu's jokes and was singing softly to himself in the car on the way home. "What did Y/n say to make you so lovesick?" Taehyun finally asked and Kai blushed "she didn't say anything we just kissed". "You kissed!" Yeonjun yelled nearly giving Soobin a heart attack. "Yeah we had our first kiss...no big deal" Kai said but the huge grin on his face showed it was. All the guys were thrilled because Kai had never dated before and he seemed really happy! His smile was so genuine and joyous that the guys decided then and there that they liked you. Anyone who made their maknae smile this much had to be good news.

After your kiss, you knew you and Kai were something and figured you should update Bahiyyih. You were sure Kai wouldn't tell her about the kiss but didn't want it to come up randomly and blindsight her. So you explained you'd kissed Kai and were seeing him again next week. Bahiyyih nodded "I figured when he came back inside looking like it was the Christmas he got a piano, so do you like him?". You nodded "of course! I wouldn't kiss him if I didn't". Bahiyyih nodded "and so what are you? Are you dating or just casual". "Just casual at the moment" you shrugged "it's so new, we haven't really discussed it". "Are you seeing any other guys?" Bahiyyih asked and you laughed "what is this 21 questions?". Bahiyyih sighed "I don't mean to be nosey but if you are seeing other guys just make that clear to Kai". You frowned "I think you're underestimating your brother. He's not a child". Bahiyyih nodded "I know he's not but I just don't think there should be any miscommunication. You can't do anything wrong if you were honest". "Well I'm not planning on sleeping with any guys between now and next week" you replied back feeling a little annoyed at Bahiyyih acting like you were guilty of something. She took in your cold tone and nodded leaving the room. Suddenly teasing Bahiyyih was becoming the least fun thing about this.

If it was obvious Kai liked you before the kiss, after the kiss he was just downright embarrassing. He'd literally stop walking when he saw you and even did this on stage. He couldn't resist smiling when he spotted you and Soobin had to keep nudging his foot with his own to stop him. Kai could talk about you for ages and Taehyun had to ask him to stop many times so he could go to sleep. So seeing as Kai was falling headfirst the guys decided they should meet you properly, just to make sure you were into Kai too and he wasn't being taken advantage of. Kai was THRILLED with the idea of inviting you around for dinner and you agreed happily. You liked being around people and TxT seemed so fun so you were so up for it. Plus you were craving time with Kai more and more so it was a win-win.

Kai drove over to yours despite you telling him you could drive yourself. He said he wanted to make sure you got here okay but really he just wanted to get some time with you before the boys steamrolled everything and he warned you a little bit about that. "So Yeonjun will be all over you but not physically" Kai said, blushing slightly "just Yeonjun loves people and they love him so you'll find him really easy to talk to. Beomgyu is an ambivert but he seems to really like you so he'll probably flirt with you and want your attention" Kai said "Soobin is introverted but the leader so he'll be all welcoming and make sure you're okay, you have enough drinks stuff like that. Then there's Taehyun who seems quiet but is actually extroverted and you really see that around us so I think you'll see a different side that you're used to".

You nodded "wow this is all so useful thank you! You know your members super well huh?". Kai nodded "yeah, we've been together a while and I tend to be the observer so I notice things". You smiled "that's true but I have seen some videos where you go chaotic Kai" you said "I love when you tease your hyungs". Kai paused "wait you watched some of our videos?". You smiled "of course! I mean I'd seen all your music videos but I also wanted to see what idol Kai was like and you're very funny" you said shooting him a glance. Kai's cheeks went full pink and he laughed a goofy happy laugh before blushing. "I also love your dolphin scream" you said and Kai burst out laughing making you laugh too. "I don't do it on purpose!" he cried and you smiled "I know that's what makes it so good! You're effortlessly great Kai" and he grinned. A compliment from you always made him smile.

Everything went down exactly as Kai said it would. Soobin greeted you at the door and was playing the role of attentive hostess when Yeonjun appeared and barreled over him. Yeonjun was charismatic and quickly established a connection with you based on mutual interests. Taehyun and Beomgyu entered next and while Taehyun gave you a polite nod and smile Beomgyu came right over to you and started flirting. As the night continued, you spoke to Taehyun more and discovered he was really cool! He also had a big presence despite being the smallest and you instinctively liked him too.

You were talking to Yeonjun and Soobin and smiled as Soobin asked if you wanted anything from the kitchen and Yeonjun complimented your shoes. "What?" Yeonjun asked and you shook your head "nothing just before I got here Kai gave me a rundown on how you'd all act and he was totally right. Everything you guys have done is exactly what he said". Yeonjun laughed "wait what did he say?" and you explained. "I am great with people" Yeonjun smiled and Soobin nodded "I am a good host" and you smiled at their happy expressions.

"It's just so sweet Kai notices this about everyone. He's so sweet and kind" you said watching him across the room with Taehyun, making Soobin and Yeonjun smile. "Yeah he is" Soobin nodded "and you've definitely caught his attention which for a person who observes everything is impressive". "It is?" you asked and Yeonjun nodded "totally! Like you said Kai notices everything so the fact he's into you shows he's only seen good things which means you're either a wonderful person or a cunning mastermind" he said frowning as he sized you up. You hit his arm "obviously it's the first one" and Yeonjun smiled "yeah of course...it's just you think he's sweet for noticing us. You should see how sweet he is around you". "Really?" you asked and Yeonjun went to jump into it when Soobin elbowed him and shook his head. Yeonjun did big eyes and some mental conversation between them was had. You got the gist Yeonjun could speak but not say too much so he turned to you. "We don't want to give anything away but he's basically a puppy in adoration with you" Yeonjun said and Soobin hit him "dude!" but it was okay. You found it sweet and were very very pleased. You had noticed some things in how Kai acted around you in particular but weren't sure how much you were reading into things, so to hear his members confirm things was reassuring of Kai's feelings.

You hadn't meant to find a sweet boyfriend going into this but life had thrown you some good luck...so it was only just that there was some bad luck on the horizon too.

I hope you had a nice relaxing Christmas!

This will be a two-part series and part two is out now!

Hello, I hope you're doing well 💜

I just saw your post about the yoonmin twitter debacle and I wanted to provide some context if anyone needs it. The context makes it even more ridiculous imo.

There was a tweet saying something like "imagine ur in an idol group and you and your crush are the least popular ship", and apparently people were replying with yoonmin (ridiculous I know). Someone (I don't think they're a yoonminie) said "y'all wasn't there" imlpying ofc that yoonmin has been (and is still is) one of the most popular bts ships. And everyone who isn't new to the fandom started saying that "we are losing our scriptures" and that "they used to be top 3 bts ships back in the day". Yoonminies ofc jumped on this and started putting videos and saying they used to be and still are one of the top ships. And then people started attacking them saying they're delulu and insulting Yoongi, because "why would Jimin even look at him", "he's DEFINITELY not his type", "Jimin never talks about him"... (those were the ones I saw, I'm sure there are more). They also started saying that yoonmin is a dead ship and "why would anyone even ship them?"

Anyway, that's what happened. But I find it hilarious how baby armys almost always don't think yoonmin is a big ship even when they are. I think it's because yoonminies have almost always tried to keep the shipping and deluluness between them, and have always tried not to read too much into stuff. Because even when we make jokes, it stays between us and we most definitely know that it's a joke and not something serious that should be taken as fact.

When I entered the fandom, I wasn't interested in shipping the members, but then after a while (a long time lol) I started noticing stuff between yoonmin that I couldn't personally explain as platonic. It is obviously MY opinion and I won't ever try to make people see stuff from my own lense.

Also, I wanted to add how much I HATE the label their relationship has. They're always labeled as "tom and jerry", which they are as they said themselves. But I hate it because everyone who doesn't really know them only looks at them through that lens, they don't see the care, the love, the protection, the intimacy they have. I feel like all the members' relationship gets a label but this depth is never lost on anyone because it is obvious. But with yoonmin they don't see it for some reason WHEN IT IS ALSO QUITE OBVIOUS THE DEPTH THEIR RELATIONSHIP HAS. Whether it is platonic or not, it doesn't matter, but why would anyone not see how much they care about each other?

Anyway, sorry for the little rant, but this was the ridiculous context behind what's happening.

Thanks for summarizing, anon, since I was too lazy to explain it all. 😉 These things always start out as a joke, but then someone has to be rude about it.

Honestly, if new armys don’t see yoonmin as a significant pair, did they not pay any attention to Face era and/or D-Day era? I feel like yoonmin has been one of the most consistent pairs in terms of spending time together outside of work and clearly being close. They seemed to have a little rough patch in late 2019/early 2020, but beyond that it’s been smooth sailing (no pun intended) with an increase in their openness about each other from about mid 2020 through late 2023 when Jimin started his service. Now I’m rambling. Sorry.

Anyway…

Also, I wanted to add how much I HATE the label their relationship has. They're always labeled as "tom and jerry", which they are as they said themselves. But I hate it because everyone who doesn't really know them only looks at them through that lens, they don't see the care, the love, the protection, the intimacy they have. I feel like all the members' relationship gets a label but this depth is never lost on anyone because it is obvious. But with yoonmin they don't see it for some reason WHEN IT IS ALSO QUITE OBVIOUS THE DEPTH THEIR RELATIONSHIP HAS. Whether it is platonic or not, it doesn't matter, but why would anyone not see how much they care about each other?

I hear you, anon! I don’t think the Tom and Jerry label bothers me exactly, since they have used that term themselves (like you mentioned). However, it does make me a little sad when that’s all some people see and they ignore the really sweet side of their dynamic.

They’ve discussed it twice: once in the radio live from 2020 and again during Ddeun Ddeun. I thought both times they made it clear that it’s all for fun and that it’s just one part of their relationship.

I’m not sure why people reduce them to Tom and Jerry only. Maybe it’s because they think the idea of the constant bickering duo is funny. Maybe they aren’t paying attention. Maybe it’s an easy way to get a hit tweet.

But if Tom and Jerry or even mentor/mentee is all they are, why is Jimin going to Yoongi’s parents’ house? Why is he calling Yoongi as soon as he’s out of surgery when the other members only texted? Why is Yoongi a man on a mission as he strides into Jimin’s first solo music show recording? Why does Yoongi spend one of his last nights before starting his service going to a nice sushi restaurant with Jimin? I’m genuinely asking. How do any of those things, and a million more I could name, correspond to the concept of two bros who like to make fun of each other? Or of two bros who only talk about work?

It doesn’t really matter, as long as we have a community that supports Yoongi and Jimin and the other members too. And as long as we have other yoonminers to share the fun with.

Please don’t apologize for the rant. It didn’t feel like a rant to me…just facts. 😉

Help guys I'm going nuts Because of this au idea for bassie

Frankly, I have two ideas au that are similar to other, but different at the same time.

It all started when we found out about bassie's background.

My idea is what if bassie got out of Gardenview

And I was thinking what if a child inspired bassie?

the child see bassie sad and afraid of something.

So the child talked to bassie alone and gave her advice.

At some point, bassie is tired of fear and stress attacks From being Probably replaced

So bassie decides to leave Gardenview

But of course bassie had to sneaks out

The possible exit is in the lobby.

As everyone knows Inside of Gardenview there is a big tree in the lobby. Above the tree there are roof windows

So bassie sneaked in at night and climbed the tree and got out the window.

And I was thinking about the Animatic scene In my imagination.

bassie sings this song

DEFYING GRAVITY - Wicked - Caleb Hyles (feat. Rebecca Parham) - Metal Cover

I like to imagine bassie has the power of a plant

So what if some of the vines came out of her basket and were like an extra hand or a rope?

And there is an interesting part the Ichor in my au

Okay first idea au

While bassie sings DEFYING GRAVITY

Too long I've been afraid of Losing love, I guess I've lost Well, if that's love, it comes at much too high a cost

And when you sing this section I'd sooner buy defying gravity

In this part bassie turns into a human kid

While bassie is walking in a city or town

Then later Bassie found a family.

The family knows Bassie's secret. that she is Toon

They care about her

I imagined a funny scene where either Arthur or Delilah used a tracking device to track Bassie.

The first scene was in the family home.

Then later on in the farm scene

Delilah was there at the farm

So the family and Bassie made it like Tom and Jerry chase with Delilah.

oh better yet Delilah is Denzel Crocker while The Bassie family as Timmy and Bassie as Fairly

Of course, at some point, Bassie has to return to Gardenview to investigate what is going on there After the accident

Okay, now au number 2

Like the events of the beginning of the story

after bassie left the Gardenview

bassie met someone my oc

He is a young man

((I haven't thought about giving HIM a name yet, so if you have any suggestions, that would be great.))

I was thinking what if the young man lived

either my oc lived at a mansion or Casita or a big house in the woods

The question is what is His personality type?

-An intelligent and confident person And sometimes he can be clumsy

-He wears glasses

-He loves to take care of any kind of plant.

-He has a hobby in woodworking And knitting

So when my oc met Bassie

Here are some possible places where they might meet each other.

1- city 2-forest 3-Somewhere on the street 4-town 5-public park 6-At the gas station

Anyway after they spend time with each other

Here is the second In my imagination.

And this time you guys know this is a good song from the movie

Bassie sings What Else Can I Do? (from Encanto)

In a scene

When Bassie sang this part: What can you do when you are deeply, madly, truly in the moment? (Seize the moment, keep goin’)

Bassie started to transform a little

Then after Bassie singing this part::: ((What can you do when you know who you wanna be is imperfect? But I’ll still be okay)) Bassie turned into a young woman.

Then Bassie opens a garden flower shop.

Bassie was happy with my oc

And at some point they fell in love with each other.

Then my oc married Bassie

And I was thinking about giving them three or five children.

In your opinion, should Bassie have three or five children? Put your comments in the post.

the Kids with the ability like Bassie

They can transform from human children into Toons

And like the first au

Bassie has to return to Gardenview to investigate what is going on

For example, what if one of the Bassie children went there or was kidnapped by one of the toons?

Or Bassie received a message from Gardenview like Poppy Playtime style or Bendy style

Now let me tell you about Bassie's human form.

-color scheme is the same thing

-Like I made her hair color of the flowers in her basket.

And another thing, there's a design in Fendem that they use when they make Bassie human.

and that is gives Bassie big ear rings.

Because the earrings represent the basket handle.

Here is the design

You know him, you love him, a shocking number of you are actively plotting his demise, everyone please give a warm welcome to another Eureka character: the one, the only: the World's Most Annoying Catboy Maximillian "Man3ki-N3ko" Martini

Once a mild-mannered libertarian femboy, Maximillian "Man3ki-n3ko" Martini is now The World's Most Annoying Catboy. He became wealthy due to some lucky investments in the early days of bitcoin, then woke up one day to find he had pink hair and cat ears. He's a guest on finance podcasts. He insists that everything that has ever happened to him was on purpose, and refuses to take criticism of any kind. He gets involved in mysteries because he's bored out of his mind, and thinks saving the day will impress women or something. His dream is to provoke a beautiful, terrifying woman into doing tom and jerry type shit to him, and then feeling so bad about it she falls in love with him. This has never worked, but he keeps trying. Unfortunately for everyone around him, he is too cute to face any consequences for his behavior. Traits: Catgirlboy - kbity! Just One More Thing - He's annoying Showboater - dramatic Nobody's Fool - and insufferable Gangway - but too slippery to punish Lover - and too cute to stay mad at

Basically, this guy exists to piss people off and then escape with his life. Eureka's good for character conflicts, so I figured why not make a guy who does nothing but cause problems and piss people off. He's also, incidentally, not half bad at solving a mystery.

The original concept for this guy was to be like knifecat. smug little jerk who everyone hates. Unfortunately, I seem to have turned the hateability knob up way too high and now everyone wants to kill him on sight.

Showboater makes him excel at showing off, and lets him be annoyingly skilled at things when people are watching. It also means he faces dire consequences for alienating the entire rest of the group, because then he'll be all alone and get a penalty.

Just One More Thing doesn't really fit mechanically, but it does make him less useful in solving the mystery, and conveys that he's pedantic and annoying. Also, combined with Nobody's Fool, he should have a good pile of Eurekas if he needs to make a clutch escape.

I always thought Nobody's Fool was a bad trait, because how often is an investigator going to be insulted and belittled to have a chance to trigger it? But maybe It'll work better on an asshole who starts fights and causes problems.

Gangway helps him escape danger, and Lover makes it very stressful to punish him. Funny thing about Lover is that the bonus still applies even if he then actively pisses someone off. Charm +3(+1) - Podcaster and adorable kitty cat. Comfort +0 - he doesn't care about your problems. Manipulate +2 - That's marketing, baby! Seduce +1 - like if one of them kpop boys had a more punchable face Social Cues +1 Threaten -2 - pink hair catboy, only 5'4" Chemistry -1 - science is for nerds Medicine -1 - he'll hawk a sketchy supplement. Nature -2 - nutrient powders enjoyer Paperwork +2 - financial advisor. marketer. [BLACKED OUT] -3 - ghosts aren't real. obviously. Technology +0 - can set up a mic for a podcast appearance Visual Calculus -1 - goes nuts for a laser pointer Wealth +3 - 1 BTC = 96,780.17 USD Basically, Eureka lets you (everyone not playing this character) play out power fantasies such as strangling a bitcoin guy with his own suspenders. If you can catch him. Athletics +0(+1*) - he's scared of getting buff from too much exercise. Close Combat -2 - slapfighter Driving +1 - he's got a nice car Firearms +0 - guns are cool Reflexes +1(+1) - gamer Senses -1(+2) Stealth -1(+2) - mildly clumsy

cooking/food headcanon about Radar, Father Mulcahy, and Charles Emerson Winchester the thiiird

Oh boy! Let's dive in

♒ - cooking/food headcanon

Radar:

Radar's mother was always cooking in the kitchen. Being the only girl in a house full of boys his mother did most of the cooking, even in her youth. Radar has siblings too, though never named, so Mrs. O'Reilly had her hands full.

But being farmers, they also aren't that well off. Everyone wore hand-me-downs. So the food, while filling, often included whatever could be thrown together.

So when those gross looking recipes in the 40s/50s came out...the food in the O'Reilly household could often look like this:

This prepared Radar very well for the food he eventually had to consume on a day-to-day basis in the army.

Radar actually can cook too. He learned from his mom, by helping her in the kitchen. He does better with baking.

Radar has a sweet tooth, but he isn't overly picky about what he eats.

Francis Mulcahy:

Ah, from one Irishmen to another. Similarly to Radar, Francis grew up in a large family on a tight budget. His mother, also taught him to cook.

What she also taught him, was how to grow his own food. It was the cheaper alternative to keep a garden in the backyard, as opposed to trying to buy their produce at the grocery store/town market.

Francis learned to take pride in what he grew and what he helped to make, discovering his green thumb in the process.

As an adult he tended to be the one in the rectory, who would happily volunteer to cook for the other priests, as he would much prefer to cook for others than to just eat something of his own making. Food tastes best when shared with others.

Francis wasn't at all prepared for the food at the 4077th. He was far too used to food having flavor. Of course he did eat the food...he kind of had to, but he always preferred eating with the orphans at St. Teresa's. There they would have food freshly prepped by the nuns, and often they would be traditional Korean meals. Turns out, Francis really likes spicy foods and he picked up on using chopsticks like a champ.

Still he ended up losing quite a bit of weight during the war.

Charles:

From day one, Charles was not to be fed like most people; he was to be catered to.

He had a wet nurse. He had a family chef that would cook, whatever he liked. There were oysters, caviar, Kobe beef, etc.

Fancy wine and dinner parties. The man has eaten more kinds of high priced food than I could dare ever name.

But this is the same man, who will eat canned pheasant.

He was given these things, told by people with lots of money and high respectability that these things were good and important. Charles spews forth these same beliefs and states them as fact, but there's no real understanding for what he's consumed...what it means to have that privilege...the question of 'why are these things so expensive?' and 'do I actually enjoy everything I say I do?', never once coming into his mind (pre-war).

Charles doesn't really know how to cook; he thinks he does, but he doesn't.

Charles also really enjoys "peasant food", including (but not limited to) hotdogs, pizza, burgers, and fries.

He doesn't want to openly admit, and he would die of embarrassment if his grandma knew...but it's still true. Same with his love of Tom and Jerry cartoons.

Still he wasn't at all prepared for the food of the 4077th, and he came back home from that hell hole with a new appreciation for the little things like potatoes that were never powdered.

Do you have any obscure Bonnie headcannons? I personally think he would kill for curly fries

I love this ask because as we all know I love to talk about Bonnie <3

🍀I also definitely agree that he would kill for curly fries!!! I reckon he's the type to wake up in the middle of the night craving them, at an hour when its impossible to get any from anywhere and he absolutely makes it everyone elses problem... You have to keep frozen ones in your freezer just in case and sometimes you wake up in the middle of the night to the smell of curly fries...

🍀 I think he gets wayyyyyy too distracted in that funky middle aisle at the super market thats always full of random junk... like you can't just go in for bread and milk without Bonnie disapearing and coming back like "hey dove, you think we could use these?" and its a pair of night vision goggles...or like a set of kazoos.

🍀 I actually think he's permanently hungry and always has little snacks in his coat pockets... Reckon he's really into babybells, and also Poppets... And because he knows how bad a mood he gets in if he's hungry, he worries about you too so always packs double snacks... Childish snacks too like, this mans walking about with freddos and milkybar buttons in his coat.

🍀"I mean to be fair... I get punched in the head for a living..." whenever he gets something wrong... Like weaponised incompetence on the most ridiculous scale.. He forgets to buy something from the shop (because he got too distracted in the middle aisle!!!) or he locks himself out and this is the excuse hes pulling every time...

🍀 I reckon modern bonnie is "into football" and being his girl would involve him constantly trying to get you into his teams shirt... Like whenever you ask to borrow a tshirt its a celtic shirt he's throwing your way.. And then he's trying to sneak pictures of you in it...

🍀 Sings really badly in the shower and when he's cooking, but on purpose? Like when he thinks he's being listened to he sings badly on purpose but if he's just singjng to himself he's got one of those soft lilting voices, like literally angelic... Like he'll sing you softly to sleep but only when he thinks you're already pretty much sleeping... So you have to pretend to be sleeping just so you can hear his rendition of Grace.

🍀 Think I've mentioned this before but I can really imagine Bonnie being adhd as fuck... Like he comes off as so calm at various points in the show, and i definitely feel like he is calm... But i also think his brains really busy with thoughts and that he's constantly fiddling with something in his hands in order to focus, like if you're sitting by the fire or whatever in the evening, he'll be playing with your fingers absentmindedly...or your hair, winding your locks around his fingers... Reckon he's really good at things like Cats Cradle. I don't know if you remember these things?

Well Bonnie was really really good at making these things, his older sisters probably taught him and then had him as their own personal scooby factory knocking out ten a day...

🍀Said this before once too but I think he's an affectionate biter... Will press his forehead to yours and just when you think you're getting a kiss, he'll bite the tip of your nose...

🍀Really picks and chooses the superstitions he believes in, salutes magpies but will cross on the stairs, won't allow any bird imagery in the home but he doesn't believe breaking a mirror will give you bad luck and he isn't affraid to walk under ladders... But the ones he does believe in he's militant about.

🍀Fantasises about being read to... Literally just wants to rest his head in your lap and listen to a wee story.

🍀 Think he gets really nostalgic for old school cartoons like looney toons and tom n jerry, like finds the slapstic violence really funny.

[Silly au idea]

Hmm... I'm most intrigued by The Split Soul Route - partly from the oddball and what sort of Nature Vs Nurture can occur here - but I also think the Found Baby in the Dumpster AKA The Bao Route is cute too. Because that's how Pigsy got MK and by the time the group could/does realize who Bao is, they've already gotten too attached to do anything to her.

[In the Shadowpeach route of my "Reincarnated LBD" au idea;]

But I do love me an immortal killing daughter of the Great Sage. Hard choice. Maybe a poll is needed.

[basically Macaque ends up "holding on to" the wild un-reincarnated soul of LBD]

Considering the shit she did, I doubt that he's just 'holding on to', that monkey probably put the soul in a jar and is shaking it like a madman several times a day - like Tom from the Chuck Jones era of Tom and Jerry in the invisible Jerry episode. But more maniacal laughter.

[Will it attach itself to the recently-reconcilled Sun Wukong and Macaque, becoming Yuebei Xing like in the au? Shadowpeach screaming ensues.]

HMMM!

What if they didn't know? Certainly, a ton of adrenaline petering off and a near end of the world could make everyone a little less observant of a stray soul going for a new host?

Don't know what she could even do in that form, but stay tucked away and wait for the chance to get a new body - like, unless she can manage to make Mac horny enough to go to SWK for relief and that's how they make the kid (sort of exes-with-benefits and maybe figuring-it-out-hate-sex), BUT!

By the time Macadoodle figures out he's got a bun in the oven - that's when the Brotherhood thing is happening. He was gonna tell SWK that day, but it all got derailed like the trains in Persona 5, so he kept it to himself until it got resolved.

Then he tells SWK, maybe after the beach party? Just, putting the other's hands over the still-small-bump and him putting it together.

TMKATI-Mac got lucky he didn't indulge too much in his first pregnancy...Yuebei Route-Mac did not get so lucky. Maybe as a sort-of final 'Fuck you' from LBD? XD

They'd figure it out later, but, like in the Bao Route, they're too attached.

And asking Pigsy for help/advice a lot. Pig-daddy raised a good kid, so they're taking notes.

current posts on the "Reincarnated!LBD au"; here (og post + very cool idea for the Ironbull side), here (shadow twins got made on accident), and here (Shadowpeach done goofed).

I'm leaning towards the "Split Soul" route cus I like writing around the chaos of the gang realising that there isn't just *one whole* super-ancient demon soul floating around. Almost mirrors the situation with the Rings of Samadhi.

Basically in her death; LBD attempted to "Piccolo Junior" (ty @dorothygale123) herself into a fresh new body - only for her soul to splinter into pieces. Two were able to be caught in the direct aftermath and stored away for the meantime - but Reincarnation has a 49 day deadline, and if those days pass without a solution the Underworld will repossess the soul fragments themselves.

So whats easier than for the Fragments to become New Souls instead of potientially reforming into LBD? ¯(ツ)/¯

[What if they didn't know? Certainly, a ton of adrenaline petering off and a near end of the world could make everyone a little less observant of a stray soul going for a new host?]

Hehehe.

Lets just say the adrenaline of fighting your possessed former-mate, making him remember what he's fighting for, and showing your parental side, is a Big turn on for a certain pair of monkeys.

But yeah, no one paid attention to how many Soul Fragments got formed in the aftermath.

[-that monkey probably put the soul in a jar and is shaking it like a madman several times a day-]

The thought of Macaque's storage solution for part of LBD's soul being a jar is hilarious. MK probably yells that he's "just making her angry!" when he catches him doing it.

Of course this form of torment is the reason Maccadoodle realises that the soul fragment is suddenly missing after he and Wukong make up...

Downside; Macaque does spend S4 el pregante and not telling anyone. First person to realise whats up is Nezha, who found out completely on accident. ("I turned my back for ONE SECOND, and you and Sun Wukong have two infants, with one on the way?!").

Also at least one member of the Brotherhood smelled that something was Off with Mac and mentioned it to the rest of them. Azure had a blue-screen error moment when he tried doing the math. Mac still kicks asses when he decides to fight, even with Peng taking a moment to mock his "egg-burdened" appearance. Peng gets shadow-slapped into the horizon.

[Then he tells SWK, maybe after the beach party? Just, putting the other's hands over the still-small-bump and him putting it together.]

Omg thats the perfect scenario for how Mac tells Wukong about the baby. They're sharing the shade, in addition to a pair of sleepy shadow monkeys, and Mac just takes Wukong's hand when he's offered the peach popsicle and brings it to his middle.

Wukong's eyes blink gold for a second before he starts sobbing with joy. Lots of loud, gross, sappy kissing ensues.

Bonus+: In theory each of the four New Souls represents an aspect of LBD that was too great for one little kid to inherit.

Yuebei (aka the Shadowpeach baby): Is much like how she is in the TMKATI au. Is a big, kinda-ugly, baby who's started cooking around the time of S4. Messy black fur, pale skull-shaped face marking, six ears and a shocking amount of strength for a newborn. Represents LBD's wrath.

Bao (Freenoodles): Dumpster piglet. Found in the trash during the post-battle clean-up of the noodle shop. Looks like the chubbiest little piglet with wispy white fur & black spots. Was assumed to just be a street urchin orphaned/abandoned in the chaos of LBD's destruction. By the time they realise Bao is even a Fragment of LBD, she's already Freenoodles pride and joy + MK's beloved baby sister. Represents LBD's hunger for power.

Guǐhuǒ (Ironbull baby, name suggested by @aokolpvxs): PIF and DBK planned to have a big big family together long before the complications with Red arose. So when Red Son explained to them about this little unreincarnated soul needing a "home"... who are they to turn down the chance at having a second born after so long? Red didn't even suggest it to them, they insisted. And you *know* that little half-bull princess is gonna have DBK wrapped around her little finger before she even arrives. Represents LBD's pride/decorum.

Shísuàn (Spider gang baby): Part of LBD's soul that got trapped in spider silk, and by-proxy became a spider (specifically a Diving bell) demon egg. Egg is lime green and about the size of a basketball. Despite initial reservations, the whole gang are soon fighting over who gets to name/take care of the spiderling inside. At least until the ginger-haired spiderling hatches and starts screaming with colic. Huntsman finally ends up asking Sandy and the Monkie Kid gang for help once the late nights get too much for him. Turns out the baby spider was just gassy. Has specific "favorites" among the gang, which includes new friend the Scorpion Queen. Represents LBD's mischief/discourse.

The Mayor is hanging around too. Got to keep an eye on where His Lady is after all. Gets beaten up by the gang the second he shows up anywhere. Later even gets beaten up by "His Lady" in the form of baby Yuebei deciding he failed the vibe check.

A cruel little tale

Chapter 9 The booth and the dolls

*I was having a hard time coming to my senses, slowly opening my eyes, my eyelids are so heavy, I didn't really want to open them. I didn't want to get up, but I had to, I just wanted to lie here forever in the warmth and sleep... But I can't, because if I keep lying here and sleeping, I won't be able to get out of here, and... for SURE. I abruptly sat up a little from the bed with my body to the top as if scalded, however, my legs also remained motionless. I was already sitting up in bed, and I pulled the covers aside, starting to quickly look around. All around me I saw... eh? What is it? I was incredibly surprised to see what was happening around me... There was darkness, endless darkness where there was only one lonely bed on which I was lying. I immediately had flashbacks of how I almost fell down when the room was empty. So I try to be careful, and... getting out of bed, I began to look around. What is this place? I was thinking until suddenly I heard a familiar voice*

— A cat-and-mouse game in which there is a place for everyone! As soon as the cat finds a start, the game will start and the mouse will have no choice but to hide! But there can be many cats, even you, dear reader, can become a cat! Let's start Tom and Jerry- the cat and mouse game!

— Cats and mice?

*I asked uncertainly, what kind of game is this? The cat of the mouse... Okay, it looks like I'm the cat, and that guy is the mouse. This game is incredibly strange, cat and mouse... It's a child's game, isn't it? But it's not like I have a choice, so it looks like I'm going to have to play. After walking a little more and looking around, my foot suddenly falls down and..*

— AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

*I'm falling or... No, I'm rolling down until a stream of multicolored lights appears around me, too bright, I don't think my eyes can stand it, so I squeezed them shut until I eventually fell and landed somewhere... On the grass? Lying on top of her. Opening my eyes, I stood up, dusted myself off, and after that looked around. There was just a field with grass and... there was a small stage in front, but it couldn't be called just a stage, but rather a booth or.... It was a special toy for puppet theaters. When people enter it, they put dolls on their hands and show different performances or a performance with the help of dolls. I remember when I was a kid, this puppet theater came to us and showed us some kind of fairy tale... I don't remember which one, but it doesn't really matter. Coming closer, there was a sign on top of this kind of booth.*

— "The Red Rose Princess Puppet Theater!"

*And after that, suddenly, I heard a rustle and the first doll appeared on the stage.:*

— There was once a boy. He was a very handsome and obedient boy, good, wonderful, in general, not a son, but gold. He loved his parents and everything around him, because his rose is red! Do you know what a red rose means? Love and passion, and he loved everyone around him so passionately! Isn't that wonderful?

*On the stage, there was a doll on his arm, in the form of a boy with shaggy brown hair, red button eyes. The boy looked very familiar as the little hand dangled, moving the doll. Now, this is the very princess of the red rose.*

— The boy was a real talent! He loved to draw, arrange puppet theaters, sew, beautiful dresses, and flowers! and the most favorite thing was reading! Especially fairy tales, not a child, but gold! These hobbies set him apart from other boys, making him more feminine, and even then he was confused with a girl because of his feminine face. No, well, where have you seen that the prince and the future ruler wanted to wear dresses and sew? Right! It's a disgrace to the kingdom with such a prince and a disaster! How will he rule? The boy was very persistent and hated everything related to war, seamanship, wrestling, even fencing and much more. And why did he hate it? Why did he have absolutely no desire to rule? It was V... Thank you for coming much more unexpectedly.

*Suddenly, the sounds of explosions, screams of people and frightening sounds associated with war began to be heard in the background.*

— The kind king and queen set up a hospital near their palace and took care of their wounded people, showing them their love.

*Dolls appeared on the stage, it looks like the queen of the red rose, which looked elaborate and beautiful, and the king, which seemed not to have been tried. But then they disappeared from the scene in the same minute.*

— The prince was very worried about the wounded people and often came to them, chatting. There were always a lot of questions and curiosity in his button eyes. He was a very curious boy!

*The background changed and then the beds were visible from behind, disfigured people with detailed painted wounds who looked in real agony. It looked like a hospital, and you could also see how the doctors were hanging around the wounded and trying to help them, but they couldn't seem to do anything, and some people looked like they were dead. It's very realistic, as if it's not a drawing at all.*

— He didn't understand why people were fighting, what was the point of wars if people were suffering. But someone couldn't answer him.:

*Then the other 3 dolls appeared on the scene, looking beaten up. One doll was missing an eye and there were only torn threads hanging from it, another doll had its arm torn off, and the other, the third doll, was completely bandaged. These dolls looked alarming and dirty compared to the prince, who was neat and clean.*

— "I do not know, little princess" "You are too young to think about it" "When you grow up, you will understand"

*Then the dolls seemed to be thrown aside and only one boy doll remained on the stage.*

— But these were not the answers to the boy's questions. And then he realized how terrible the war is, will he be able to be the same as his parents and rule well while there are continuous wars and brutalities around? He was afraid of both the war and the future. However, when the boy turned 8, a couple of months later, their country won the war by winning! The love of their country and the passion with which they fought defending their lands won, after all, nothing can be stronger than love, don't you agree? Love for your neighbors, for people, for everyone around you is real magic! A victory day parade has been announced! It was so beautiful.

*The background changed to a colorful view from the tower, while there were blurred figures of people below. There were beautiful multicolored flags on the houses and a military parade could be seen below.*

— That's when the king and queen started thinking about what to do with the prince.

*The background changed to the familiar hall of the castle, and instead of the boy's doll, other familiar dolls of the king and queen appeared, moving to the rhythm of conversations.*

— They were shouting at each other and their opinions were divided.:

—"He can't rule!!! It's better if we disguise our son as a princess! Then our kingdom will be pure and no one will be able to say a word about an heir who doesn't look like an heir!!!"

—"NO WAY! WHAT KIND OF NONSENSE ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT!!! Yes, our son doesn't exactly look like a worthwhile heir, but there is time! He's going to grow up! Our son should not pretend to be someone he is not! Let him decide for himself and choose his own path!!!"

—"HOW DARE YOU EVEN ARGUE WITH ME, YOU ANIMAL!!! LISTEN TO ME, AND DON'T TALK TOO MUCH, SO YOU BETTER SHUT UP!!!!"

—"THIS IS OUR SON!!! I CAN'T KEEP QUIET UNTIL IT COMES TO HIM."

*The dolls spoke loudly in raised tones and the narrator himself imitated female and male voices*

— Well, and so on, nothing interesting, typical adult fights, complete boredom. But eventually, because of these disagreements, the king began to disappear from the castle more, the ungrateful creature, oh, I'm sorry, it escaped, the peasants who do not respect women have no rights.

*After that, the king's doll disappeared and there was only the queen's doll, which looked tiredly at the frame.*

— And then, the queen realized that her husband was still a freak and a womanizer. There's a lot more drama here than in Turkish TV series!

*Suddenly, dolls of the king appeared on the stage, hugging a doll with black hair and blue button eyes. I already knew what kind of doll it was, my mother's doll. No wonder, they both acted badly and meanly... Like wilted flowers.*

— Do you agree? I'm glad! You really are a really nice crowd!!! So, I'll continue.

*The dolls of the king and my mother disappeared from the stage, after which there was only one doll of the queen on the stage again.*

— After that, the queen fell ill, very seriously ill. The boy, like a good son, hung around his mother, as did the doctors.

*Several dolls, a boy, and two dolls of doctors appeared on the stage, dancing fast circles around the queen doll.*

— But they couldn't save the queen and she died!!! She died an unusual death in the boy's favorite field.

*The dancing is over and all the dolls are gone, except for the boy's doll. The background changed to a beautiful meadow of flowers, and a thin female body lay on her side. The flowers were stained with blood.*

—A terrible murder!

*Suddenly, doctors appeared who were dancing around the boy's doll*

— Everyone said the same thing: "It was an accident!" "She died of an illness." However, it is interesting that someone did not really take her illness seriously without acknowledging it. The boy was indignant about this. She couldn't have died of a disease that doesn't exist! Moreover, how did it happen that she died in the garden? Not being able to get out of bed by myself? Someone killed her... But who could have killed her? Who! Who! Do you know who?

*The background changed to a black screen and there was silence. What do I have to answer?*

— I... don't know

— A direct answer! What misfortune and mourning! Mourning seems to have spread everywhere throughout the country and especially in the boy's soul! The boy withdrew from everyone, shutting himself in his own little world. He didn't talk to anyone, not to his father, not to the servants, he couldn't trust anyone to speak out. Every time he tried to talk to them about his problems, asking them questions as usual, they ignored him and rejected him, and therefore...

*This doll began to beat against the walls, the frame, from side to side and the sound of glass began to be heard. The blows were made cruel and merciless, not sparing the poor doll for a minute, cruelly. There were more and more cracks on the doll, like on a glass dish. I watched this spectacle with fascination and every time I was startled by the sound of glass until suddenly... The whole doll was not covered with these cracks and broke like a glass mug. I felt sorry for the doll. Only a small hand remained on the stage as the pieces fell down behind the stage. Then the hand itself disappeared.*

— Tell me, how much can a person endure who will endure and will not be able to talk to anyone? Open your soul? He loses faith, hope, and breaks like a plate. And with this hope, love disappears.

*Then another doll appeared on the scene, the same boy, only the doll now had threads that sewed the torn pieces to the doll, as if not completely restoring it.*

— But the boy did not break, he remained strong, yes, he wilted and fragments will fall from him, but he will not break! He'll be whole, and no matter how hard you try to water yourself, you won't be able to recover.

—...

*I looked at this booth in disbelief. How does the person who sits in it know about this? Although the new one is not a person at all.*

— How much do you know?

— Oh, I know everything! I know everything! By the way, if you want to see the sequel, then you will need to pay! Give me some money! Money!

*After that, a familiar hand stuck out of the window below, and the fingers curled into a fist, then on the contrary quickly changing frames, as if begging for something in return and waiting for something to be put in his hand. I stood at a loss, looking at that hand. It's a magical world of dark magic, so why is there money in this world? I have them, but... I WON'T GIVE THEM TO PEOPLE I DON'T UNDERSTAND. REMEMBER, CHILDREN! THERE IS NO TIME TO GIVE MONEY TO PEOPLE UNKNOWN TO YOU WHO EXTORT FROM YOU!!! MOREOVER, IF THEY ARE CALLING FROM UNKNOWN NUMBERS, Sellers in stores are an exception... And the homeless are new too... They're not extorting money, are they? They're small, though. So, this is not a goodnight kids show or... What is this and why am I thinking about such an absurd thing?! I've been here too long, and that's why my thoughts have become... Like, this place has a bad effect on me, I need to find that guy as soon as possible and finally leave here with him...*

— No, since when do you need money in the world of magic? Can't you conjure them yourself?

— Caught him red—handed! He could have played along... You're my first viewer in so long, white rose! So I wanted to take them as a memento, but okay.

*The hand went back inside the bottle. I have a question... How long has it been since the last viewer besides me? A strange mask appeared on the stage, held by a small hand. The mask was white in color and it depicted closed eyes and strange stripes that looked like tears.*

— So, the white rose! Welcome to this world!! You already know what it's called... To get out of here, you need to find a mouse! Which can hide behind any corner and wall. Well, the typical hide-and-seek is shorter, I think you get it. I need to find a princess too, so I can be your partner!

— You mean that guy?

— Don't call him that! It's like, "Oh! Look at that fast-paced guy!" or "Oh, that guy" it's annoying... Just call him the princess.

— Okay, it's just that I'm not really used to it... To see a guy wearing dresses, but I think I have to get used to it. I'm not judging, but this news still amazes me.

*That's right, I'm not judging the princess, it's just that I've never seen anything like this before and it's still hard for me to believe that a red rose could pull off such a trick... Or rather, the king, it was cruel to his own son. But despite this, I still want to meet him, otherwise if I wanted to leave and turn back, I would not be able to forgive myself for this.*

— I understand, after all, not every 5th is a princess... If that were the case, it would be a gay world where only gays rule. Well, I'm sorry, but I don't think you'd want to be addressed as "this guy!" so you always called him princess, didn't you? So pretend like nothing has changed, it will make him feel a little better and less nervous.

— I get it. And who are you?

—Oh, me! When you find the mouse, you'll see for yourself! But if I'm not with that book, it's creepy, I hate it. I am on your side and your ally! Well, as I said, I need to show you the continuation of the show but... I need time to prepare all the props and sew new dolls.

— Sew it... Dolls? Do you sew them yourself? But you can use magic... Or not?

— Oh, no, I can! But... You know. I like to do everything myself, with my own hands. When I sew dolls myself, I feel like myself... I feel alive and less useless than usual, as if I'm capable of a lot without magic and I don't need it! I can't explain this feeling, but it relaxes and makes me feel good about the process. If I always use magic, then my performances won't be as cool as you enjoyed! This is my special style, vibe, okay? I love doing this, and my love is endless!

*I listened attentively to the words of this unknown person... Well, I think it's human. His words are full of meaning.*

— Your words are full of meaning...

— Oh! Thanks a lot! In the meantime, I'll be preparing the next performance for you, white rose! You're going to look for a mouse

— Okay, but where can I find his? It's just a field

*I said, turning around, looking around. One endless field, an emptiness filled with loneliness.*

— Yeah, he's an adult after all, and his imagination sucks, ugh, loony! Anyway, you'll find out in the next chapter. The author is tired of writing this chapter and his strength is running out to write a sequel, so bye bye! 🎶

//Oh my God, I enjoyed this chapter so much... It's been a long time since I've enjoyed writing directly, but it's the part with the puppet theater itself... Oh, God, I can't, I was so happy and enjoyed the process of writing, this performance itself popped up in my head... This is probably one of my favorite chapters, although by the end all my strength was exhausted and I just calmly wrote until I died at the very end... Actually, I'll tell you a secret, this puppet theater was originally supposed to be in the next chapter. I wanted to stretch the moment to him, like, "Shunsuke sends a rabbit to the Space Theater, and then Shunsuke himself goes to the puppet theater, and we need to stretch the moment..." But I couldn't think of anything to write, so I had to write this part with this theater... Hmm, I wonder if you guessed who the puppeteer was who put dolls on his hands? And the chapter was originally supposed to end at the moment when No's performance ended... Little, very little, so I had to stretch it out.

I was gonna draw out tiny little sketches of these but fuck it idgaf

Here's some 𔓘⭒๋࣭ ⭑Lottie lore/headcanons 𔓘⭒๋࣭ ⭑because she's my favorite character to think about right now.

Lottie has this uncanny fight or flight response to where 2 things will happen. 1: If you make her scared or frightened by accident or on purpose she will gain the strength of a 800lb gorilla and beat you're ass to atoms. Or 2: She will book it like Usain bolt, straight up Tom and Jerry yo ass. Nobody, and not even herself knows why - or how she does this.

Lottie is canonicaly friends with the Devil, yes... Satan, Lucifer himself. She frequently summons him to "dispose off'" her more embarrassing fanfics. They have BFF bracelets :)

Lottie enrolled to school after the school shootings happend.

Lottie whole big story arc is her overcoming her shyness and getting together with Darnell, she's just taking baby steps right now though.

Lottie really likes to bake, from cookies, to cakes, you name it and she's really good at it. One time, she made these Chocolate bon bons for Pico n' gang and they loved them so much, that after they were doing eating the whole fucking bag, they asked for more. Lottie, however, declined their offer because its was her great, great, grandmother recipe and her mom only just passed it down to her. (So just think of that one fosters home episode with Ms. Foster's cookies, and Pico, Nene, and Darnell as Frankie)

Her favorite drink is milk and honey tea (that one drink from ponyo, goated movie btw)

Pico is currently training Lottie to become stronger.

Lottie has the fanfic writer curse so like, ever other month or so, she'll get into these batshit insane adventures, (aka getting jumped by über kids for no damn reason)

Lottie doesn't like to cuss or lie.

Lottie was raised in the "nicer parts of Philly" (aka the suburbs)

She stutters alot.

When she's nervous, she'll usually fidget with her knuckles or comb her fingers though her hair, or worse, pull on it (but that's only when she's in distress)

Out of everyone, Lottie is the most normal girl in there school, she basically sticks out like a sore thumb.

Lottie doesn't like hurting/killing other people, she just does it out of self defense, she'll feel bad immediately afterwards and mourn them, no matter how dangerous they were.

Lottie likes My Little Pony. (We stan a proud pegasister) her favorite is fluttershy :3

Lottie writes some of the most, gut wrenching, toe curing, uterus clenching smut you will ever see.

Despite that, Lottie isn't all that dirty minded. In fact, she'll get embarrassed if she even thinks about it.

She loved collecting Cute stuffed animals, and useless knick-knacks. She also likes wearing cute clothes.

She likes to illustrate, her artstlye is based off of Strawberry shortcake/ Shojou Manga/ MLP.

Lottie completely lacks social intelligence, making her seem awkward and clumsy to others.

Lottie learned how to bandage up other people since becoming friends with Pico (and also nene I guess but she doesn't really know if their friends or not and she's to scared to ask)

She tired weed once and she got so fucked up that she cried for hours until she passed out (blame pico)

She's a couple inches taller than Pico.

She's a bit clueless but she's very academically smart.

Shoutout to the two, maybe three people who's actually gonna see this and care about my oc's :]
