#I was having a lot of fun with this and then life for busy 🫣

[kidovna]

Hi! Your art always makes me smile and feel so warm and fuzzy. Thanks for all your contributions! I wonder if I can put in a hopeful request for the future? Would you be able to draw a young Mike and Will meeting their older selves? Like S1 meets S4 / S5. I can just picture Will blushing seeing Mike all grown up and little Mike trying to hide how bashful he feels, maybe sharing favourite toys or drawings or asking what movies they see when they grow up, and the older boys are of course enamoured and nostalgic seeing their preteen selves! It would play into the possible time theories for the show too!

Not s1 byler meeting s5 byler, but back during bylerweek, I started this comic where s3 will time travelled to 2023 and got to meet older married byler. Here’s the first panel from that:

[shellbells-things]

I’ve seen a lot of discourse over the Jikook Car Convo. I think on the surface, it sent mixed signals. But if you think about what you know about Jikook and how important being together is to them…there might be a different way to look at it. Jungkook started off by saying something about how they were supposed to have a drink together (code for hang out), but didn’t …and it went on from there. And that’s where people got hung up at. I have a perspective on this based on a recent experience of my own.

Recently, my daughter and I decided to take a trip to Disney World because I had a business trip down there anyway. (Adult Disney is a blast btw. Great food, drinks, Epcot, Disney Springs, etc). On the car trip down we talked a mile a minute. During the trip we ate and drank and hung out. So fun! We literally said the words “it’s been so long since we’ve been able to just hang out. We haven’t gone anywhere fun together in a while. We’ve been so busy with work and just life in general. I’m glad we are taking time out to have some fun!” Interestingly….my daughter lives with me. I see her every day. But the trip was fun time spent together, not just the day-to-day stuff. We weren’t two ships passing in the night, two ultra busy people who work, eat, sleep and repeat. We were in the moment, having fun together, no distractions! (Yes, It’s a mom/daughter relationship instead of a couple relationship, but still. Spending quality FUN time together to nurture a relationship is important!)

I wonder if Jikook, who have since confirmed that they saw each other during that time (but clearly not enough)….meant that they hadn’t been taking much needed down time with each other, hadn’t been able to step out for some drinks or other fun for a while because they’ve both had opposing schedules and have just been so busy. I felt like Jungkook was sort of admonishing Jimin for being too busy to have fun…but then admitted that he had also been too busy…that if it wasn’t for deciding to MAKE TIME and take this trip, they might have just continued being too busy to prioritize quality time with each other. Then he said “You’re here. Finally”. Like that boy breathed a sigh of RELIEF!

That’s what I think this convo meant. Its NOT that they didn’t see each other, because I’m betting they saw each other all of the time, but that they didn’t make time to have fun with JUST each other like they usually do.

And here’s the deal. You don’t end up going on MORE trips, saying you want to do a travel show together until your fifty, and enlisting together where you will be together every single day for 18 months��.with someone you were not close with and never saw prior to this convo. You don’t go from “no longer close” to this 👇 in a day.

Nope. So I think the car convo was them sort of lamenting that they had been so busy and had made the mistake of not taking the time for each other that they deserved. Listen, Jikook are normal humans who love each other, but let their crazy busy schedule get in the way. Very unusual for them I think. But they finally said ENOUGH, and decided to make time, steal time, whatever, just to prioritize themselves as a unit. I loved the show. I saw lots of domestic moments, lots of fun/giggly moments, some 👀 and 🫣 moments….but most of all, I saw happiness. I saw love. And THAT makes me happy. So anyone that says Jikook aren’t close or that they don’t love each other….pfft. 🙄

i’m curious on placements that indicate a strong social media presence or potential to be an influencer online

i heard having leo in the 11th house was an indicator?? i also assume having aquarius placements would have some effect! leo and aquarius are my bets (i’m learning rip 🫣)

Influencer placements

🟫11th house placements. This house is at the end of the day the one that rules the internet, so a person with placements in this house may be more likely to have a strong internet presence, accompanied by admiration, love or respect from the public [depending on the planets involved, of course].

🤎Those with Saturn, Sun or Venus in the 11th house can become highly admired on social media, many can see them as an example to follow and they can enjoy a good reputation.

🤎Pluto, Saturn or Mars in this house can symbolize that the native is respected and placed in the upper echelons by the public. Some may be intimidated by them and the native with any of these may build a massive fanbase.

🤎Having Venus, Moon or Neptune in the 11th can make the native adored, loved and even idealized by people. They can attract people who will give everything for them and support them wholeheartedly.

🤎Mercury or Uranus in the 11th house causes the native to easily create trends, as well as facilitate connections with people from any platform. They can attract many fans who want to be like them more likely.

🟫Having a fixed 11th house. I consider that it is a matter of fixed signs, since they can create a solid community more easily. Also any of the four fixed signs here can indicate popularity. 

🤎With Taurus in the 11th house we have Venus ruling this house so the enchanting effect on others is enhanced. This placement mainly favors the natives being able to do business with their image, be it from being a public figure, with collaborations or even taking out their own merchandise.

🤎Naturally those with Leo in the 11th house can attract a lot of attention and grab the attention of the public. From sketches/comedy videos, to just making their hobbies entertaining for other people too [cooking, dancing, covers, playing video games, so on].

🤎Scorpio in the 11th house can cause other people's fascination, make people last a long time following or seeing you. People tend to feel very attracted to them, their content and in general what concerns them. Ruled by Pluto, they can create a powerful internet image/persona.

🤎Aquarius in the 11th house feels very comfortable here, people follow them naturally and they can easily make trends. They make things more entertaining and bearable for their audience. They quickly understand the trends of the moment and adapt well to them, or on the contrary, create their own.

🟫Ruler of the 11th in the 1st or vice versa. These people can become very popular in your life, both offline and online. Their charisma allows them to attract people and be well liked by others. People admire these influencers for who they are, for their authentic attitude, and for being very upfront and fun with their followers and others.

🟫Ruler of the 11th in the 11th. This is par excellence. They stand out for their ingenuity, their creativity when it comes to creating content and for the closeness and affection they show their followers. They are admired for their desire to innovate and ability to entertain people with anything.

🟫Ruler of the 11th in the 10th or vice versa. These people work hard on their internet image. Many of them can become on the lists of the most followed. It seems that they take their image of the internet seriously and it is something that they are constantly looking to grow. People admire them for their sense of hard work, for their professionalism, and for the fact that many of them want to be like them.

🟫Ruler of the 11th in the 7th or vice versa. Charm, idealization and falling into the ideal type of many people. They admire them for their beauty, for the way they relate and connect with others, and of course, for the way they address their followers. They can attract a lot of people who feel genuine love / affection for them.

🟫Having Aquarius placements [especially sun, moon, rising or mercury]. 

🟫Having Leo placements [sun, moon, rising, venus or mercury].

🟫Having Sagittarius placements [especially sun, moon, rising or mercury].

🟫Having 9th house placements also contributes with this. This is because it makes it easier for the person to become known in other countries and for their content to be seen by many different people. This house also represents luck, which is also needed to be an influencer. Furthermore, placements in this house are particularly fascinating and enchanting.

🟫Jupiter in Sagittarius or Pisces. Those who have Jupiter in domicile are usually seen as cheerful and tend to radiate these good vibes very easily without trying too hard, they are usually seen as nice and very kind by other people. They may have this ability to make others feel happy when things are not going well and may fall for the term "safe place" from people.

🟫Jupiter in Cancer. Similar to the previously mentioned, those with Jupiter in Cancer have an exalted Jupiter, so the previously mentioned qualities are enhanced. In turn, there is something much more caring in them that makes others see them as adorable, charming or even as angels to other people, this sometimes without them seeking or trying.

🟫Moon aspecting the 10th/1st house or in the 1st/10th/11th house. These aspects create more than anything a lot of charisma and make the native have the ability to make the audience feel comfortable, understood and appreciated. Increases the chances of being popular on the internet.

🟫Having a strong Uranus. Having Uranus in the 11th house, in Aquarius, as chart ruler or as a dominant planet is something quite common in influencers. They easily reach a wide variety of audiences and are able to be accepted and liked by them, likewise, they seem to simply understand what the audience wants or how to charm them with ease.

🟫North Node in Aquarius or 11th house. This is something that I have seen very often in many charts of people who not only reach a lot of people, but also earn the respect and affection of others through the internet. Many of them create things that impact their community a lot, the trends they create are followed and loved for a long time. The North Node is the midpoint of destiny, having it in any of these two can be a great meaning of what was previously mentioned. 

These are just some of course. Thank you so much for your question, I had fun writing this.

Stutter

Lordy lord☝️

Hehehe another fic! This one is a John Carpenter fic and I hope you enjoy it!! I was watching the 'Change of Habit', movie yesterday and thought he's such a nice man😮‍💨 and here's a fun fact about me if anyone is interested is that I have a stutter! The reader in this fic has one as well! It's a pain in the a- @hooked-on-elvis for the tags !!

My brain is finally cooperating with me again but I don't wanna jinx it 🫣 And I'm sorry that a lot of my fics include crying, I just can't get enough of crying comfort fics😭

Characters: John Carpenter X stuttering!reader

Warnings/triggers: Doctor clinics, stuttering, crying

_____________________________________________

This week hasn't been going smoothly for you, and it’s all your stutter’s fault. One thing you couldn’t spit words out when a couple of ladies were asking you for directions to the nearest post office and then when you had to call the dentist to make an appointment, it tied your damn words down. It’s absolute torture and you were so fed up with it. You've had this speech impediment for as long as you can remember and everyday you wish it would just disappear, out of your life, away from your worries but you had to learn that it's only fair for each individual to have their own problems in their lives but you still thought about that wish of yours. Sometimes…Well daily it makes you cry thinking about how hard it is to deal with.

Something that helps your stutter though is John, John Carpenter, your beloved boyfriend. He's always been there for you whenever you want to pour all your concerns out, about anything your brain can think of. He’d always listen and you couldn't ask for any other guy than him, he's all you need. Just someone who would look past your evidently painful stutter and just patiently waits for your next words. He knows about your stutter and understands how hard it can be because he often works with people with problems like this and he has told you several times if you want help, he is always there but you just think John has enough on his plate of taking care of himself and his patients so having his girlfriend to take care of as well? In your brain it seems like it's too much for him. Yes John is a doctor and that’s his job to take care of others but oh you couldn't possibly burn your wonderful hard-working boyfriend out, you really couldn't bother him with your problems even though he wouldn’t mind at all and would be happy to help.

One afternoon, as you were sitting on the couch those worrying thoughts were constantly circling your mind and you just wanted them to go away so you decided to go to John's clinic for a visit, to get your mind off things.

As you arrive and open the door into the foyer, you peer through the window of the clinic door to see John talking to a patient, who you think is the last one for the day. Quietly you turn the door knob and make your way inside. John notices you walk in so he says goodbye to the patient and waves a hand to gesture for you to follow him. Taking you to his office for some privacy. “How's my girl doing hm?” he asks as he watches you close the door and hang your purse up on the cloak stand. You hum softly “Good, b-been good” silently sitting down on a chair opposite from his, brushing a strand behind your ear. John smiles, “Busy week?” You shake your head and lift your eyes up to look at his “N-no, p-pretty quiet this week…I-I- I didn't have a lot on my sched-..schedule” nodding his head he hums in response. “Aren't ya lucky… been crazy busy in the clinic this week” he sighs and snickers to himself.

You smile small and giggle slightly “Mhm, a-alot of..of- of sick people?” asking in a quiet tone. John chuckles “injured, mostly injured” nodding as your eyes trail down to the papers on his desk, the troubling thoughts crawling back into your head. “Mhm…” John's smile returns and his eyebrows furrow a little. “Something on your mind honey?” your eyes dart back up into his and you laugh nervously and brush it off “Oh no..N-no just- just tired ‘s all” giving him a small smile before you go back to your zoned out state. With his ankle resting on his knee and leaning back in his chair and his hand wiping under his nose, he watches you quietly. Seeing your eyes sadden and your arms resting at your sides, presuming you were twiddling with your thumbs under the table. “Ya sure you're tired?” Earning a silent nod. He stays silent for a few moments, continuing to watch as you sulk. “You don't look tired..” he states, you breathe in briefly and look at him “John, I am just tir-...” he raises an eyebrow making you sigh. “Fine I'm not tired” your posture slouches. John breathes out “What's ya thinking about baby?” tilting his head to the side, his eyes staying glued to your face. Looking down at your lap, you bite your lip gently “M-my…my s-s-stut-” you huff out being so sick of it, John nodding slowly “Take your time honey” you take in a deep breath and slowly break down the word “stut..ter, stutter”

It’s embarrassing, making tears well up in your eyes and you shyly wipe your nose. your breath trembling, “I-its annoying…it- it really is'' John's face softens and he leans his body closer, resting his arms on the desk. Humming softly, he listens as you tell him your woes. “I'm sick of it…s-so sick of it” your breath hitching quietly before an unexpected sob escapes your mouth.

“Aw honey…” you bury your face into your hands. John gets up from his chair and walks around his desk, shifting your chair to face him as he kneels on one knee. Clicking his tongue and prying your hands away to cup your cheeks. His eyes move from one eye to your other as you pitifully cry.

“I-it’s so annoying! E-every t-time I try to speak..i-it won’t let me!” you sniffle, John nods and hums then a small grin grows on his face “You’re speaking right now” he raises an eyebrow and snickers softly, you gently swat his shoulder “I meant speaking clearly!” you exclaim making John laugh louder “M’sorry I know what you mean darling, I know” his hands rest on your knees, caressing with his thumbs. You wipe your tears away with the back of your hands, sniffling one last time. John smiles “Want a hug?” he asks as he holds his arms out, you accept. Both standing up “ It really is a pain isn’t it?” he sighs, you nod quietly as you rest your head on his chest and wrap your arms around his waist.

John sighs again and kisses the top of your head, rubbing your back soothingly. Staying quiet for a while before John speaks up “Would a lollipop make you feel better?” to which you agree “mhm…” Pulling away, John walks back around to open a drawer to pick out a lollipop for him to walk back, holding it in front of you “Here..” you shyly take the sweet and attempt to open the wrapper, frowning in frustration. John shakes his head and chuckles again “I’ll get it” taking the lollipop out of your hand and with ease, he unwraps it. “Thank you” you say quietly. Pecking your forehead lightly, John admires you with love in his eyes.

“it’ll get better through time”

Step By Step Through the Closet Door

First of all, I want to apologize for not breaking this with images and gifs. There's no excuse 🫣

Now, I've read all the excellent commentary coming out of ep 11. I believe it's all valid and there are points to be made all around. I don't have the knowledge or experience to comment on pacing, editing, and certain directorial choices. But I do want to say something in favor of the story the show is telling.

This is a different story than we're used to, and it's told in a different way. It takes some getting used to, but where I'm from this type of storytelling is used a lot. This is showing things the way they are to the point of annoyance. I think that what causes all the confusion and frustration is the fact that the show lets each character exist separately from one another. There is no cohesiveness because life has no cohesiveness. The characters act and react according to their own separate sets of rules as opposed to each other. I know that some will see it as bad storytelling, and it's no excuse, but imo it has its benefits when trying to tell a story about people.

MY CASE FOR JENG and Pat

Jeng has been consistent throughout. Everything he does is because his entire being is linked to the company. He never makes mistakes. He always puts the business first. His entire philosophy of "life and work should be combined" is his reality. He has no freedom. He's had to hide who he is as a person, not only his sexuality because he always needs to represent.

As for the money, it's not the first time he did it. We're told in the beginning that he's been keeping the department alive with his own money. The only thing in his dad's company that is actually his is that department, and fighting to keep it is fighting to keep his sense of self. That department became his identity, so he will do anything to keep it alive. This is about Jeng v. his father. This is about Jeng becoming his own person.

So how does Pat fit into all of this? Well, Jeng being 100% business 100% of the time, he sees Pat's talent and he finds it super attractive. Sure, he finds Pat cute and attractive when they first meet, but his interest in him grows when he sees his talent and potential.

In his mind, Pat is a driving force through this. He finds Pat and he feels that he finally has an ally. However, this has nothing to do with who Pat is. This is the idea of Pat, not Pat himself. He does with Pat what he does with work - he makes him part of his identity and links him to the department. So Pat is no longer a separate human being, but another aspect of Jeng. Pat becomes the part of Jeng's personality that fights to keep the department alive. Which makes him the logical choice to be his successor as the head of department. Losing one of them (department or Pat) means losing his identity as a man separate from his father and the company.

As for Pat, he has his own shit to deal with. He needs to work in a toxic work environment and face gossip that is typically reserved for women, who are usually the target of this kind of gossip precisely because of their sexuality. Pat needs to end things with Jeng because he can't deal with it. Love is not magic. Love can't fix society. Outside pressure can and does break relationships when the people in that relationship are unable to stand together.

Pat and Jeng cannot stand together at this point in their story because they exist in two separate worlds. Their realities and the way they experience life are so different and separate from what the other is experience, to say the least.

THE QUEER REALITY OF IT ALL

That intervention/interrogation scene was way too personal. Even if you've never been interrogated about your sexuality, or had to defend it, just sitting in a room where people talk about your sexuality as if you're not there is not a fun experience, to say the least.

Having to justify yourself all the time to everyone because of who you like. Having to sit in a room where YOU are being scrutinized for your entire being just because of your sexuality is something that queer people experience all the time. Straight people will have lengthy discussions about others' sexuality in a way that I haven’t experienced in queer spaces. They will expect us to live up to tropes and stereotypes, and if we don't, they will be disappointed because it's not what they were promised (I'm sorry, but this is hitting very close to home). This is the reality of being different in a way that most society can't understand. If there is something to say in favor of this show is that these moments are represented so accurately that it's sometimes painful to watch.

STEPPING OUT OF THE CLOSET

This is a story about closets more than anything. Not only in the queer sense, but anyone who needs to hide who they are for "the greater good" knows what it's like. When you need to hide parts of yourself, for any reason, it's easy to lose touch with who you really are.

Being outed for the benefit of others OR How straight people talk about other sexualities.

We can all agree that Pat is not in the closet. But throughout the show, he goes through the experience of being outed three times - first when he has no choice but to out himself because of toxic male co-worker. The second time, his relationship with Jeng is outed for political gain. Then, a much more public outing of his relationship with Put. So, we're starting with a one-on-one outing, through people in the more extended environment, and finally nationwide exposure. By the end of ep 11, he has no control over who is allowed into his private affairs, and none of these outings were even about him. These were all cases of him being outed for the benefit of others. (re: straights discussing queer sexuality as though there are no queer people in the room).

Your closet is serving life

Jeng lives in the closet. Not only his sexuality is closeted, but his entire personality. He's had to maintain this public persona for so long that he has no idea who he is. His every move is dictated by his need to maintain his image for the sake of the company. He can't afford to protect Pat because he is on the job 24/7. Having Pat in his life forces him to deal with new situations. It's the first time he finds himself in a dilemma where he has to choose between the company and the person he loves, and he chooses the company because the closet is locked from the outside. The only thing that's truly his is the digital marketing department. Saving the department is saving himself. For him, it means protecting himself as well as protecting Pat. So, this is life and death for him. Even when he's called for the "intervention" with management, then with his father, and questioned about his sexuality, the only thing he can do is protect the department. Pat and the department are one because they are both his identity.

To each their own closet

Chot must keep his relationship in the closet and is at the mercy of his partner. He has no choice but to hope that one day he will be allowed to be out in his relationship. Which we were all happy to see happen!

Jaab and Jen had to hide their feelings and flirt in secret because of Jen's relationship. After that ended and they had the chance to be out, Jaab chose to run because he can't deal with actually getting what he wants (I have things to say about that as well, but it will have to be a separate post).

Beam has closeted his feelings for Ae. He chose to hide and had to watch from inside the closet, how someone else is living the life he wants for himself.

And finally Ying, who had to hide her fujoshi side.

These stories can't come together and form a complete story, because they exist separately from one another. Even Jeng and Pat exist separately from one another, each in his own story without the ability to connect, because they exist in separate worlds.

If you got this far, I seriously thank you for sticking this out. I hope this makes sense, and again this is only how I read what this show is giving us...

[6okuto]

hello i saw you tags and am here to ask you about akaashi i cannot stop thinking about him he is so everything

fun fact his name (akaash) means sky in my language 🫢🫣

THANK U. u get it. also sky that's so cutieful omg? gahhh.. keiji thoughts...

he isn't a very confident person, at least not in high school, and i think watching him become more confident would be endearing and?? attractive?? it's a quiet confidence. he's as kind as always, but he learns to take compliments better, shares his opinions a little easier, gets used to small talk with strangers. with you it means less hesitation before asking if he can kiss you, a satisfied smile when he catches you off-guard with a compliment, rolling his eyes and joking when you teasingly ask if he's jealous.

& you'd be a huge factor in this!! whether it's him catching you staring as he rolls up his sleeves, or calling him hot when he combs his fingers through his hair and stretches. he isn't used to being called hot especially. like, pretty or handsome or good-looking, sure, but hot? keiji's never really seen himself that way. he gets flustered, but subconsciously relaxes and stands a little taller when you shoot heart eyes his way :-(

advice/comfort/compliments from akaashi would be very well-thought out and sincere. look at him with bokuto. like he thinks a Lot, about you ten-fold. it's easy to say exactly what you need to hear—he prides himself on knowing you as completely as you know him!! on loving you like you love him!! your imposter syndrome and anxiety will hit and keiji will be there, reminding you of the last time you felt this way and how it turned out alright. he'll tell you no matter what happens, he knows, and you know your passion and worth, and he'll be with you the whole time.

on a lighter note if you said you felt awful and miserable and angry and it was past 9pm he'd quote that thing about never trusting how you feel about life past 9pm, and also ask if you've 1) eaten 2) showered 3) slept. LOL.

!!! miscellaneous akaashi thoughts.... I alwayshave them. alwayndsk...

cat person of course. likes stray cats. he often forgets to bring treats but he feeds them when he remembers.. & meows at them (he looks around nervously because it'd be a little embarrassing if someone heard LOL). when a cat rubs against his leg or purrs he's energized for the rest of the day!

he likes laying his head in your lap while you work. you don't have to talk or anything, he might just take a nap. gets kind of nervous that he's bothering you the first few times though. he's also happy when you lie down on/near him!

i was thinking of photographer!keiji.... him struggling to find inspiration or to take photos he's really proud of.... him seeing u and going ..! and he hates going up to people. it's nerve-wracking and he usually works with nature or close friends.... but you've noticed this pretty guy pacing nearby a couple of times and he's pretty sure if he doesn't approach you he'll regret it forever. GAH!

in a world where i don't ship bokuaka akaashi doesn't date until he's in his 20s at least.. like my self ship world that isn't with bokuaka. god bless my heart. uni au! uni au! uni au!!!

has flipped a coin to see if he should skip class or not. a uni class not high school just for clarification. except he didn't actually have a coin so he had to google Coin flip. was devastated when it told him to go

mm i think timeskip keiji might be a little insecure about his appearance/fitness actually.. being on the volleyball team was an easy way to exercise in hs but he finds himself too busy or tired to go to the gym a lot of the time now :') i think it'd be nice to work out at home or go on walks together... also reassuring him and showering him with compliments and seeing his face turn red ☹️ my keiji.....

keiji will push around the shopping cart for you if you're shopping and fold the clothes you're getting for sure while he waits Just because. has definitely found a few of your favourite things ever...he denies his thrifting luck but He has it

gets embarrassed and tries to stop crying while watching a movie. he's sniffling but then you start crying for real and he laughs a little and cries harder too.

touches water and watches it ripple... keiji in the morning... still so sleepy... messy hair... shirt lifted so u can see his stomach... him humming or mumbling responses while he stays curled into ur side... furrowing his brows and groaning and holding onto u when u try to get up.. my chesthurts. WHY

not keiji. my bad. but This bokuaka comic has genuinely changed my life and even if you don't gaf about bokuaka you should read it for me. please. please. i need you to gaf about bkak for me for a minute. sometimes i go NIA SHOCK as a reaction because of it

2023 Astrology Vibes

Last day of 2022, I think I can speak for everyone when I say this year was something 🫣

But 2023 is going to be a different vibe and I’m going to tell you why

1. For the last 5.5 years Saturn has been in his home signs Capricorn &Aquarius! These were the probably some of the most challenging years and you had to do a lot of growth and break away from karmas. Also add Pluto Capricorn that’s been intensifying everything! Look at the years from 2017-Present. Check what houses Saturn, Capricorn and Aquarius were transiting those years using transit chart.

For ex. Saturn has transited in my 6&7h so I’ve learned a lot about relationships (platonic&romantic) and I’ve had some health stuff that made me want to change some diets.

2. Now Saturn is leaving his home signs into watery Pisces for 2.5 years. Pisces is ruled by Jupiter&Neptune. What happens when realism sign and non realism sign come together? It means it’s time to wake up and smell the roses 🌹 wherever you’ve had your rose colored glasses on, Saturn is about to snatch them off😭 if you have Saturn Pisces natally, then you are about to go through your Saturn return! check and see what house Pisces rules in your chart to see the themes you’re about to experience . Don’t worry you guys got this!

3. In numerology, 2023 is a water ruled year! The number 7 is ruled by Cancer. Cancer is ruled by the Moon.

4. In Chinese astrology, it’s ruled by the water rabbit! Rabbit means fertility and growth!

5. Pluto also takes a dip in new sign Aquarius for a few months before going back into Capricorn before stationing in Aquarius permanently in 2024 for 20 years. Aquarius is an air sign but is known as the water bearer

So what happened when you put all of these things together? Well here are my own 2023 predictions…

1. Spirituality will be on the rise, especially occult, I feel like people will dive into the unknown, I feel like people will be finding God on their own terms without influences from churches. More people may leave churches due to corruptions and I feel like karma is going to come to the toxic people who uses religion for their own gain

2. Something with fish, maybe a low fish supply since Saturn restricts. Also Pisces rules the deep ocean and Saturn represents time and ancient stuff, I wonder if we’ll find some ancient civilizations or species in the oceans?? When Pluto enters aqua, that may advance it since aqua rules technology and Pluto rules dark hidden places👀

3. Women will be the focus next year since it’s a cancer ruled year. I’ve seeing lots of babies and pregnancy signs so I think a lot of new souls will be born next year, these new babies will be advanced, I’m talking doing things at 2 when they shouldn’t be able to do until their 5 😅 honestly the whole Pluto cap and future aqua generation will be. Watch what I say😅 back to women though, sisterhood will become a big thing, women banding together to start a business or just to have a small support system.

4. The moon rules over our family, ancestors, home life, our private life, our emotional comfort. Themes surrounding these topics will be the focus. Now depending on your moon sign, this will tell you how your year can go, I would personally check your solar return chart and see what sign the moon is in for that year

For ex. In my solar return chart, the moon is in Leo 10h with moon ruler in the 9h for 2023, themes of children, traveling, having fun. My uncle &his gf is having a child in February!

5. Pisces also rules over addictions, with Saturn here I feel like more people will began to talk about there addiction struggles or become more aware. I know for one that I personally need to take a step back from social media & be more present, focusing more on my creative projects. So things like that will be topics

6. I’m very interested to see the kind of music that will be released! Pisces rules over music! I feel there’s going to be timeless music(Saturn ) it wouldn’t surprise me if a new genre appeared, last time Saturn was in Pisces, the grunge era was huge!!! Kurt Cobain was a Pisces. So I’m wondering if there’s going to be another Pisces icon on the rise next year? I feel like it would be someone who’s been in the industry but just now becoming mainstream, I’m thinking it’s going to be woman or feminine energy

7. Also a lot of good movies will be out next year as well! I feel like movies dealing with the past will be the theme, now I know movies are made a year before but I think by the time they are released it fits perfect with what’s going on Astrologically. I always tell people to pay attention to the movies and tv shows that come out. I feel like they’re a glimpse of what’s to come the following year! Especially the big ones, like Wakanda forever & Avatar both were the biggest movies and had themes of family, women and water hellooo

See you all next year

Oh it is your birthday today, right d?? Today being Wednesday in Australia, if I'm not mistaken! I hope you have a wonderful birthday, sweetheart!! I know you're busy with life and timezones are a pain, but still, I love seeing you on the dash and all your personal posts!! I hope you have a fantastic day and are surrounded by love! 💖 🥳🧁💞

Let us pretend I responded in a timely manner 🫣 surely it’s the 4th somewhere in the world still 😅

Desi 🥹 Thank you so much for the sweet birthday wishes 🥰💖 I think you even beat out the people I know irl with the speed of your msg. I did have a lovely day and the immeasurable kindness sent my way both from offline and online friends certainly made me feel very loved ☺️🫶🏼

I know I drift away from here a lot but it’s nice to know that others are still thinking of me even when I’m not here ❤️ In the mornings, the little pocket of time I get between waking up and starting work - where I get to scroll my dash and see what everyone’s been up to whilst I’ve been asleep, is the highlight of my entire day <3 and it’s LOTS of fun to see the aftermath of any news or pics about our lil show and work my way backwards to the first set of posts and replies. S5 premiering in my birthday month is the greatest gift I could ask for hehe 💝

Hope you’re having a lovely week as well and I really wish I could give you and everyone else in our corner of tumblr a big hug 🤗💕

If you're giving out flower opinions: how about my fave, lilies? Specifically, I love stargazers and orange lilies the most.

And, how did you get into floristry? I'm a notorious plant killer 🫣 but I love the artistry you can create with flowers. Would you perhaps be willing to share some of your work?

I love lilies!! They make such a great focal piece in arrangements. And I weirdly find removing the anthers so satisfying. (Always do this! Otherwise, they can fall and stain your table.) Stargazers are gorgeous, but SO fragrant. We used to sometimes sell them in pots at the shop, and an entire display of them could be really overwhelming. But they can be real showstoppers in an arrangement!

I got into it in my mid-twenties. The local community college had one of the best horticulture tech programs in the state and I was in a place in my life where I kind of desperately needed a thing to do. But I'd always liked flowers and you might be able to tell from all my mood boards that I love playing around with color. It felt like it'd be a fun thing to try and possibly a good fit. And it was! I did it for five years and really enjoyed myself. But unless you're at a huge shop, or own your own business, it also involves a lot of retail work, and I could only do that for so long. But I've been kind of itching to get back into it lately, at least recreationally.

I weirdly don't have many good pictures of my arrangements! And the ones I do have are buried deep in my camera roll. If I do get back into it, just for myself, I'll definitely share it here!

Brad Huff x Andre hcs/au?? :0

What if at some point, Brads parents were getting tired of him acting kinda childish and getting into dumb situations at school so they really pushed him to start looking for a job so he’d mature and that’s how Brad ends up working at the Pizza Place Andres dad owns??! He of course didn’t realize Andre works there or that his dad owns it so…

•Things between Brad and Andre would be really tense. Probably after the first or second work day together, even tho Andre’s dad told Andre to be kind and get along with Brad, Andre ends up dragging Brad out behind the restaurant and has him pinned against the wall by the collar. Hes yelling and asking if this is just another way for Brad to make his life a living hell and to fuck with him.

Brad would play along and act like yeah he totally didnt get forced to pick up a job bc of his mommy and daddy so he acts all coy and like “So?? What if I am??” And it riles Andre up. But before things can get really ugly between them, Brad finally tries to cool the situation down bc he really doesn’t wanna lose his job so quickly and hear his parents complain about it. Andre of course doesn’t want his dad mad as fuck that he beat up the new employee so they both just back off for now. Andre tells him not to talk to him or anything at work.

•But of course that’s impossible. They have to talk everyday if they wanna get the orders/job done right so they are forced to at least at the bare minimum, talk about work related things. Andre hates it and is always complaining about him to Cal but after a while it just kinda naturally happens that Andre and Brad open up to each other. It’s a very slow process but since Brad isn’t around a bunch of other idiots to show off too, Andre can see him for how he really is eventually.

•Once they get on friendly terms, during one of their breaks Brad would spot Andres camera (Andre brought it because Cal was busy and couldn’t film whatever it was he was up to that day). He gets interested in the camera and turns it on to film Andre while they are smoking behind the restaurant and starts some kinda silly interview with him. Andre actually is having fun answering whatever dumb questions he’s asking. He only starts to get irritated when Brad starts zooming into his face and getting super close. Especially if he throws in some teasing about how pretty Andres eyes are.

•Speaking of teasing, even when they get comfortable with each other, Brad doesn’t stop picking on Andre but it’s not as mean hearted as it used to be. A lot of it is him trying to fluster Andre. While a lot of it is gay jokes he also pokes fun when Andre can’t reach something or messed something up. He loves telling Andre “you missed a spot” while he’s still mopping each and every time.

•One night when Andres dad leaves a little early for something or another, Andre and Brad end up making out in brads car since it’s nighttime and no one’s around to see 🫢🫣. Andre wasnt even getting in to find a place to make out with him, he just wanted to see the inside of Brads car since Brad ‘wouldn’t stop bragging about it’. Things just led from one thing to another ;)

•Cal first starts noticing that something changed between Andre and Brad once Andre stopped complaining 24/7 about him and actually began to just randomly bring Brad up. Like if they saw a certain band shirt, he’d point it out and say something about Brad mentioning liking that band. Plus Andre stopped frowning all the damn time when he passes Brad in school and they actually began to wave to each other. (And brad would smile at him)

[cringe--is--dead]

Hiya scarlet darling! Hope you’re doing well and that the weather is just how you like it (since everyone’s got a different favorite kinda weather) I’m here for a matchup if that’s alright! Please and thank you uwu)/

About me hmmm I’m always running around doing something whether it’s working or finding another hobby (that i have way too many of) I’m really relaxed (despite the chaotic schedule) and easy going and I love to take care of people!

Hobbies-wise I like to travel the most but baking and gardening are close seconds! Special interests are animals probably? I know a ton about them and tons of fun facts. Also I could talk about baking, eating, food for days and days.

I have a cat that is so clingy I could throw him and he’d shoot back like a boomerang lol. My style is girly and colorful i guess? and anything sparkly is good! a wonderful mix of cute but comfortable so there’s gotta be pockets on everything. I love a good overall too but…😩 im getting off track

I actually love period pieces like bridgerton or the gilded age and old black and white movies are so fun! I love fantasy too especially in books (i read TONS) and theres a movie called stardust that’s also a book? One of my all time favs. But old 80’s movies with the special effects are also delightful for me (and another special interest i forgot.)

important stuff ahh I’m affectionate with the people i love but when people show it back i get all flustered about it I’m like what do mean you love me 🫣 how bold despite clinging to them and gushing praises at them on the regular. I do end up blushing a lot even just when I get excited talking about what I like and I don’t come up for air while chatting a mile a minute. I love spending time with the people I care about to the point where I’ll drag them everywhere with me if im able to. I also tend to worry about them quite a lot even when there’s really nothing to worry about. I’m a little airheaded and daydream-y when I’m not busy doing something. Thats probably the only time I’m quiet tbh

SORRY IF I WROTE TOO MUCH I hope something in it was helpful ヽ(；▽；)ノ anyways I love you you’re the sweetest!!!<3 have a seriously awesome day!

NEVER APOLOGISE FOR WRITING! There can never be too much! (*＾▽＾)／

Also Stardust? Literally changed my life when I first watched it! Amazing movie! Never read the book but I'm adding that to my list!

MOVING ON!

I match you... with Umemiya!

The gardening hobby definitely caught my attention, but there are other reasons! Umemiya strikes me as the type of guy who takes care of everyone first before even thinking about himself, so having someone who cares for others means he has someone who will care for him! Making sure he rests, making sure he takes his glasses off before he sleeps, helping him in the garden, helping him style his hair, etc. All the little things you do to help him has his heart fluttering!

He loves hearing you talk about animals, even listens about different birds in the area and what their diets are, researches different veggies and seeds to add to the garden to try and get more birds visiting so you can see them!

Plus someone who loves cooking? He sends you home with fresh veggies almost weekly! You're saving money whenever you go grocery shopping, and if you bring him bentos with that food he eats it all! He brags about it to everyone too!

He would love your cat, but he would also have silent stare-downs with said cat for your affection. He goes to lay his head in your lap, but your cat's already there. Now they're silently staring at each other, neither blinking. You have to adjust both of these big babies to cuddle both of them.

I also can see you getting him to watch Bridgeton with you, and he is SO enthralled! You have nights where you eat snacks and binge episodes, he plays the soundtrack when on the roof tending to the garden. You created a monster, that's what you've done!

Ume also would love someone as clingy as he is, and even more so if he can fluster you while the affection happens! He gives me cute aggression energy, so if you're blushing whenever he proclaims he loves you or you two share a kiss, expect to have your cheeks squished between his hands.

I hope you enjoyed this! HAVE A GREAT DAY!

[squidyyy23]

TINNNNAAAA!!

I miss you and now the tumble cycle knows too. (If you publicly answer this 🤣)

I hope everything is going okay in your world 🧡 xo

AUDS!!! hi! hello! 🫣 i am here! i am still alive!

routine has kicked back into gear and life has been busy busy. in a good way! just a way that hasn’t wound up with lots of scroll time. and then i get overwhelmed about feeling like i need to catch up on everything before i can come back. so i stay away... BUT! what better excuse than some love in the inbox to dip the toes back in!

PLUS seeing everyone's joy lists last week made me smile. so thank you auds and thank you @creepkinginc @suzy-queued @look-i-love-u @metalheadmickey @gallawitchxx @whatwouldmickeydo @heymrspatel @crossmydna for not forgetting about me! have some joy and forgive me for anything i've missed! 🥰

💃🏻 moving my body on the regular again. walking around in that good kind of sore pain nearly every day for weeks.

✏️ watching my big kiddo taking a totally different (and much more agreeable) approach to school this year.

☀️ perfect high-70s and sunny weather we’ve been having

🐈 surprise visits from the neighborhood cat. the way she lets herself right into my house and meows at me for treats.

🗓️ realizing i have way more vacation days saved up that i realized.

🧼 putting aside my control freak tendencies and accepting help to get the job done.

📺 silly shows and silly games with silly friends.

✨ sparkly things that don’t shed.

🪴 the view of my garden from my desk.

🪑 rearranging furniture and purging shit in the process.

🐭 having fun family plans on the horizon.

Omg he speaks!🤯😳🫣 and that’s now so much more terrifying…. And I love it.

With the first one for me Jungkook was animalistic so it was easier to digest. He’s an animal predator with intelligence of an animal predator that you would expect. He could communicate but it was basic information nothing really complex. To me, he seemed to act more out of impulse rather than a lot of thought and intent. So I could neatly put him in he’s an animal predator box like “this is a highly aggressive grizzly bear it may look cute but it will rip you shreds if you go near it”

But with Seokjin speaking…somehow makes him human but way more dangerous than a human. The fact that he was willing to learn how to speak and can speak in complex sentences, that shows he doesn’t act on impulse(most of the time), there’s a lot of thought and intent into his actions to meet his needs for food, entertainment, and to improve himself. And that’s scary. For me that makes him more terrifying scarier than Jungkook.

Love how much your writing just keeps getting higher and higher quality. I’ll be honest I hardly ever come onto Tumblr anymore (mostly because of busy life stuff) and you are the reason why I honestly come onto Tumblr anymore just to see what you’ve added and to reread the other works that you have written.

I really really love this new story I can’t wait for the second posting! (secretly🫣 I wish it would be longer because I just find Seokjin character to be really intriguing)

💜CRS

I agree! JK felt more similar to an an agitated animal than a human, definitely the type you know you can't look away from unless you want to get hurt/killed. It was much easier to look at him and go "oh, he's just acting this way because it's his instincts and he doesn't know any better", but it's a whole different story with Seokjin!

Seokjin is indefinitely much more scary because he knows exactly what he's doing. Like you said, he's intelligent and calculated, and he understands right from wrong even if he couldn't care less about it. It's terrifying for sure!

AHH omg thank you so much!! 😭💖 That is so sweet, thank you for spending your precious time on me 🥺

The next chapter will hopefully be posted this month! Seokjin's character is a lot of fun to work with so I wouldn't have minded a longer series, but I just don't have time for it right now :( This was honestly just supposed to be a fun little story to give myself a small break from Abundance and Lovesick (it feels good to actually finish a story every now and then, lol ) 🤧 But maybe I'll do a TOP drabble in the future!

[askjingrandet]

hey my bro, so...i have this weird thought of mine...

erm...anyways- so i imagined you as a woman with a big rack, bob cut with spiky (?) bangs, and you being a woman you would look good in both suits, corsets, and dresses 🫣. i think you would still like women tho 👀 but of course you also like men as well 😏...and you still like badonkers despite having one, oh and...i have a feeling you would smirk and tease to those people who are distracted and flustered looking at your honkaroos.

i won't blame them like I WOULD GET SO DOWN BAD AND ILL GET ON MY KNEES, ILL DO ANYTHING FOR YOU LIKE PLEASE LET ME BURY MY FACE ONTO YOUR CHERRIES- 🫢

so...let me reveal myself...what if i told you that this bro of yours...is actually a girl herself...🥲

of course no guy could type like this and it's so obvious man-

and i don't actually blame you since I ALSO LIKE WOMEN RIFNEKDMEM LIKE THEY ARE SOOO FINE- im attracted to emma as well 🤭

LIKE HEAR ME OUT- I JUST ALSO LOVE WOMEN BUT NO WORRIES I STILL LOVE MEN TOO EDIENDKEMSKSM-

okay i should shut up, i talked too much 😔

- you already know me, im THAT same anon

Hey there anon you ready?

Ok so as I said yesterday I put a lot of thought into what I'd look like as a woman and I've got it! I would definitely have very nice boobs, not too big to smoother but big enough to fill some big hands and after conferring with my admin lady that size would definitely be DD (admin here: please no more boobs for awhile I beg you he gets too descriptive lol). Of course I would rock any type of look but I think my go to would probably be tight slacks with a white blouse and navy blue corset on top...ya definitely, some nice gold trim on it. Think the one area I would disagree with you on is I'd have longer hair, not that there's anything wrong with short hair and the spiked look would be interesting but I'd want something different from my current style. Plus there's something about running your fingers through some nice silky locks, gotta imagine it feels good on the receiving end too.

Of course I would distract everyone and not just with my boobs. I would be just as sexy as a woman as I am as a man if not sexier! I Mean you're already getting worked up over me as a woman so I gotta be smokin'.

Emma is pretty hot, she hides that hourglass of hers a little too much but that's part of her allure. Liking both is fine, gives you more options and hey when it comes to loving somebody you love what's on the inside right? The packaging is just the bonus! You love whichever you want, I'm sure that person will have a very interesting and full life with ya.

Don't ever be worried about talkin too much to me. I know sometimes I'm busy with my duties or going out on dates but I will always answer you back.

Edit: opps I forgot to add, if I was a woman I'd still definitely love the ladies. I love women too much to ever not love them! More boobs would just mean more fun 😉

I am by no means a Swiftie. I’m a casual fan at best. I am a Travis fan. I know some Taylor songs. I can have fun listening to them. But that’s as far as my fanning goes. I didn’t even know about Joe or that she had a boyfriend until Travis came into the picture 🫣 /

I just thought I’d clarify, I am what you call a Taylor Swift listener. I have been listening to her music since her debut album. Like when an album drops I’ll listen to a couple of songs and like them and that’s it. I have never been aware of so much drama in her life (aside from the Kanye thing). So her music has always been in my life.

Like a lot of these songs are from when I was growing up so I had a lot is sentimental attachments to them. Even now all the songs to me are parts of my life, the good and the bad.

And when she began her tour I starting seeing a lot of videos and because she is singing alot of my favourite songs, and I started interacting with a lot of your videos I started to get more into the whole fandom.

It didn’t help that it was around the time she broke up with her boyfriend (who I also didn’t know about)

As toxic the Chris Evans fandom is, her fandom is sooo much worse. I am blocking people left and right.

Again sorry I just wanted to vent a little, and at the moment I have no one in my life I can talk to.

Oh no, you’re fine. You don’t have to apologize. Fandom behavior can be so much fun, but so toxic in a blink of an eye. People have to find that balance of when enough is enough. When it borders on the line of obsession, or even bullying. I do agree that the obsession in Taylor’s fandom is…it’s something. I can’t recall if I’ve ever listened to an entire album by Taylor. There’s honestly few artists that take the time to listen to an album as a whole anymore. And as far as the music business goes….they have their own sets of problems.

So it doesn’t surprise me that her stans are jumping at a chance to blame Joe when they weren’t in the relationship. I will never pretend that I know/knew what went on with Joe and Taylor. I didn’t keep up and didn’t know about him until after the fact. But let’s just say I don’t think Taylor is the most innocent either. They were in a relationship for many years. I doubt it was a cut dry breakup. It was multi faceted. Even in her lyrics those are her experiences. Few people ever can admit where they were wrong and mean it.

1st I wanna say ur pretty. 2nd how do u have the confidence of using an actual selfie as ur profile photo? I wanna make a fic account 2 butt idk what to set my pic as. I wanna use my face 2 but I don't want irl people finding me eek how do u do it 🫣

Well, thank you ��� Honestly, I see a lot of people using band members or other things as their profile photos. I don't think it matters what you choose to use as long as you like it. I did it because why not?

I've gotten into the mindset where I really don't give a shit what other people think. I don't need to live my life living for other people. I've spent too much time doing that already. If people I know irl find me, whatever. This is my life and I like my face. Why not show it off? Other people's opinions of me shouldn't matter and they're not my business.

I used to hide my online presence 24/7 non-stop, but this is my life. I really like writing fanfiction and why should I hide that? People think it's cringy, and yeah maybe, but if it makes me and other people happy; if I'm not hurting anyone then why does it matter? It's all purely for fun.

Plus, I enjoy being delusional as Chan on Bubble. I truly believe that they secretly stalk the internet to keep up with fans. They know what's going on. If one happens to stumble across my page and magically gets seduced by my profile photo, I'm completely open to having a y/n moment. I'm just keeping it real 🤷
