#I was very pleased to get that rainbow egg randomly though

[victorluvsalice]

With Clement refusing to just leave and return to wherever it is he goes when he's not Father Wintering (instead choosing to wander around the house and complain to the local snowpal population), I decided to just have Smiler ignore him and instead get a start on some of the farm chores! This included checking on the chickens and collecting the eggs (which included two normal eggs and one RAINBOW egg! So that was cool :D), cleaning up some trash and doing some recycling, and shoveling a few random snowdrifts. Victor and Alice, meanwhile, woke up from their naps and had a breakfast of leftover fruit pie in their matching bathrobes. XD They soon joined the chore train, though, with Alice going to clean up Moory's shed and refill her feed while Victor and Smiler joined forces in the greenhouse -- Smiler grabbing all their various herbalism ingredients and plasma fruit and mopping up mysterious symbols while Victor watered, weeded, and sprayed for bugs. And evolved a few plants while he was at it -- the better the produce, the bigger the profits at their store, after all! He then started the harvest while Smiler and Alice took care of disposing of the various waste around the house (always something to clean, from Moory's shed, to the litter boxes, to the pile of trash beside a recently-fixed water collector) --

And then, what had started out as just regular, steady snowfall turned into a full-on blizzard! O.O Victor was okay in the greenhouse, and Clement seemed content to hang out on the porch with a lump of clay and Shadow, but I quickly sent Smiler and Alice inside to avoid the snow. Smiler decided to do some push-ups while Alice got out her meditation poof to meditate some Fury away...

episode 209 spoilers below

I'm so late today but here it is

I love EJ, he's finally learning to be happy. I'm so proud.

Ms Jenn = every boomer during zoom calls, like jeez yes we can hear you stop shouting at me.

LOVE THE SUBTLE JOKE ABOUT QUARANTINE "these dark times" "you mean spring break?"

ah yes, remember when we thought covid was just gonna give us a longer spring break? good times

SEBLOS

damn the passive aggressiveness from Carlos and the absolutely over it tone from seb✋

CASWELL COUSINS!!!!! THEY'RE THE BEST!!!!

we needed more if this kind of goofiness for the first part of season 2 that only such an iconic duo can provide.

old old movies-

is it even that old, or is Nini being a gen alpha rn-

i choose to imagine EJ being scared of the movie and hiding in Ashlyn's shoulder while she keeps a straight face and then EJ pretending to be tough afterwards

aww redlyn are soulmates.... yknow, if gingers had souls

(please ignore me)

y'all saw how EJ's face *lit up* when Gina logged on? how dare you tell me he doesn't like her

ofc she's no damsel in distress, she's Gina porter, she's amazing.

so do we think she'd be the type to just glare at suspicious people? or bark at them

do they not know that Rini broke up? or is Ms Jenn just wanting Nini to suffer through her heartbreak to make her a better actress....

speaking of, why is Nini in the call? she's not in the show anymore. Unless she is, even after the rose and the song got cut, which would be so unfair to all those that auditioned properly before she even came back but whatever, she's the main character I get it 🙄

big red is a hero honestly, Nini better thank him for changing the subject like that

I can't-

i won't work you over the break-

this woman would 100% work her kids 24/7 if it was legal and idk how to feel about it.

YES GINA USE THAT CHARM

QUEEN

FRENCH QUEEN

SHE LEARNT FROM THE BEST (antoine obvi)

smh the airport lady, eavesdropping on Gina's call.

The way she was so happy to answer EJ's call, "eej"

I love them your honour.

EJ WITH PAINTED NAILS YES PLEASE

great now we need to see Gina, Ashlyn and EJ having a complete spa day and EJ getting really into it and Gina and Ashlyn take pictures of him when he's laying down in a robe with a mask and cucumbers on his eyes.

finally we get to see Gina's side of portwell

the way she considered it as flirting, this is the sign she asked for in episode 6 come onnnnn

no is Asher/jack really doing tiktok dances in an airport-

Ricky is me. I am burrito.

oh Lynne, sweetie, I'm sorry but the blonde hair is not it

is that even the same lady or-

THE BEAN

THE CHICAGO BEAN

THE BIG OLD METAL BEAN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY 😭

jetlag is my go to excuse for anything... I haven't travelled in 2 years.

"welcome to the Lynne and Mike gossip show. where we talk about our depressed son that we both neglect in certain ways! And now a word from our sponsor, Nord VPN..."

SO MANY CANDLES

WHAT DEMON IS LYNNE TRYING TO SUMMON IN HIS ROOM-

is Nina becoming social media obsessed EJ from season 1? AND SHE LIED ABOUT HAVING SONGS TOO PLEASE WHY ARW THEY RECYCLING THE SAME PLOT-

Gina smiling at the picture of her family on Instagram makes me so happy, idek why.

EJ's nails are so pretty, we needed to see it more (unless he had it on for the rest of the episode and I just.... didn't notice🧍🏽‍♀️)

oh not the tiktok kid✋

yes ma'am end this strange mans whole tiktok career

sir take a hint and leave

GINA NO DONT SAY YOUR LAST NAME HE COULD BE A HUMAN TRAFFICKER

Ricky, walking in style✨

weird kid, ok then Lynne, can't you see he's this close to the edge?

not all your fault baby Ricky, Nini sucks a bit more

RICKY YOU DIDN'T COME DOWN HARD ON THE SONG-

YOU ASKED WHAT IT WAS ABOUT AND SHE SHUT YOU DOWN-

PLEASE DO NOT BLAME YOURSELF

ok but the deleting comment thing was very bad

still don't know if I like Jack honestly

hmmm so Nini's calling herself Nini instead of Nina in her little egg seat, while trying to write a song without inspiration.... Nini, honey, Ricky was your muse, he inspired you to write all those songs, even if it wasn't good for the relationship.

that doesn't mean you gotta get back with him, or that you can't write a song that not about him butttt it'll take some time

the rainbow sticker in her box and her rainbow shirt-

anyways wbk she's not totally straight

Jack are you a criminal?

quick, Gina, check his ankle for a tracker

THE YES AND PRACTICE STRIKES AGAIN

the way Gina wasn't into it in episode 6 but she's used the technique twice now

stole her grandma's Pomeranian-

Jack where the hell did you pull that out from-

the fake crying killed me, that looks like so much fun though

anyone wanna raid a first class lounge with me?

wait so is jack not gonna go in with her?

wouldn't he go in too? help look for the credit card? SO CONFUSED

the first class lounge guy was so into the drama though, watch his face when they start arguing 😭

sorry to break this to you Kourtney, but you haven't even blocked the second act yet soooo...

take that as you will

I love how all of them are totally dissing the dance off

that's the most realistic part of this show tbh

shouldn't Nini have asked how she knew....since the start? why is the fact that her best friend has knowledge of a North high secret now dawning on her...

Howie is sweet honestly, at least he's trying to help. but I stand with Kourtney, don't take him back just because he sang an amazing song, and is giving you a heads up on what's gonna happen...

KOURTNEY IS ME TRYING TO LEAVE AN ONLINE CLASS

I hate school

ooo Nini's writing a song about bad internet connection 🤩🤩🤩

I never lie, except when I do-

son that is the creepiest thing you could say to a stranger that you've been "helping"

2 truths and a lie👀

he's an Ariana fan 100%

called it.

OLDER BROTHER-

WHAT-

free spirit? damn so brother porter was in that horse movie

so has she been kissed or not?????????

I feel like she's moved more than 15 times though so possibly

but then if she's moved so much, and before east high she never opened up to anyone, she's never been kissed then?? damn

same though Gina so let's be besties please

heartbreak president is a great song title idea, give Nini a call rn

but wait

is the no strings attached feeling thing about her telling Ricky she liked him? she thought she was moving away so she thought it'd be no strings attached???

guys I think I figured it out insert the "I've connected two dots" meme

THE DUKE SWEATSHIRT

IS THAT YOUR BOYFRIEND'S

OMG I LOVE I LOVE

NOT THAT I KNOW OF???

ma'am did you just kill me

yes you did

Lynne and Ricky have such a weird relationship

YES IT DID SUCK

TODD SUCKS

LYNNE SUCKS

yeah I get that you wanted Ricky to like Todd BUT THAT WASN'T THE TIME

right so we already know that Ricky was so desperate to keep Nini cuz he didn't want to be like his parents, and now Lynne's talking about this-

Richard needs a long hug

yes Lynne, it is your fault. thank you for finally admitting it.

YES DYE YOUR HAIR

BLOND HIGHLIGHTS RICKY WILL RISE AGAIN

"sometimes the best, last thing you can do for someone you love, is let them go."

gotta admit I teared up at that point

not me thinking big red was calling ms Jenn cupcake for a hot second-

Carlos please omg, you're at the "beach" and they're leaving for the pool?

also, why not just do the call from the hotel room please omg

"don't ask me"

"Carlos"

OMG WHAT HAPPENED

big red wants the tea

O M G

SEB IS JEALOUS

JEALOUS SEBBY IS MY FAVOURITE THING IDC

I'm surprised ms Jenn knew how to give Nini permission to screenshare tbh

So lily's been stalking the East high kids and spending time editing this video while she's supposedly in an immersion trip.... right

EJ and Ashlyn's picture is so chaotic, what even is happening there

"slacking off" bestie its spring break, obviously they're confident enough that they'll get it done in time so why not focus on your own musical.

jealous seb = sassy seb

please what if those guys Carlos is posing with are his cousins or something and that's why he's so confused about Seb

6 YEAR OLD EJ I LOVE HIM I LOVE HIM I LOVE HIM

Nini saying she's obsessed with her ex, that's not weird at all 👍

I can just tell Matt had a blast harassing Julia with those puppets.

Jack please dont be like that, "yet"

chances are you'll never see eachother again 🥰

(honestly sometimes I really miss those friends I made on trips and stuff when we'd spend the day or week together, only to never see them again....those were the good days though)

Ashlyn and Nini should write more songs..... something better than this one at least

Nini: "im good"

cue the Tia Mowry (please I can't spell) crying gif

oh I forgot Ricky was in the show for a hot second

1. where did Gina get to film this without people being around

2. did she just... randomly change her clothes???

ok but the transition between Carlos and EJ

*chefs kiss*

now everyone shut up, EJ's singing

oh i think I'm pregnant

HIS MUSCLES

YES KOURTNEY

I love how big red and Kourtney went from being "the best friends™" to the couple in season 1, to kinda close themselves and having their own plots

sebby makes me so happy

props to biggies editing skills honestly

PORTWELL BEING SIDE TO SIDE I CANT

AND SEBLOS OMG

big red lives for the drama

"wow" so true Ricky

no he is not cute, stop it

"holding" ok that's kinda cute

yeah EJ's a lucky guy😌

jokes aside, it's not that hard to exchange numbers-

keep in touch if you want

ok I really like Jack now

if he comes back in season 3, maybe have him be LGBTQ+ ?

like the only out characters they have rn are Seb and Carlos and they're like the sterotypes, yk?

I'd love to see jack kinda break the mold

Ricky's breaking my heart

that song just hurts

the only thing

now I don't hate Lynne????????

HOW DARE THEY WRITE IN A PROPER REDEMPTION ARC FOR HER

UGH IM SUPPOSED TO HATE HER FOREVER

I mean I don't live her now but she's good

but honestly

"mom can I show you something"

IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL

THE PICTURE AND EVERYTHING OMG

I'm sobbing please help

Gina saying she's just waiting for the right guy and then EJ coming to the airport to pick her up late at night without her asking, offering to bring her back in the morning so she won't have to Uber, bringing her a granola bar (WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT SHE FORGOT TO PACK) and without expecting anything in return???

ms ma'am you've got a keeper right there

her smile at the end was so heartwarming I really can't.

this episode was great.

it felt really short but I liked it, great character development for Ricky, Lynne and Gina.

Cant wait for next episode to see more of EJ being the ideal boyfriend /hj

[idontworkforsega]

Not sure if this is too ooc for you, but I need a good cliche prompt in my life right about now. I’m thinking any scenario that leads up to Boom Sonic and Amy tripping over each other, rolling down and hill, and landing on top of one another. (Like in the Lion King ☺️) A kiss would be pretty rad too. I feel like Sonic and Amy in the Boom universe would make this prompt the most fun :)

I know this cliche and I stan by it.

Also, Prompts are on shutdown! Don’t send any in to @cutegirlmayra or myself at this time!

Prompt:

“I’ve got it!”

“No, wait-!”

Amy reached up for the frisbee that held Eggman’s emotion changing electro-nerobots to it. The second Amy grabbed it, Sonic tumbled into her, and the two went falling down the side of the hill.

“Uh oh.” Sticks, getting shaken out of the emotion-control by Tails whacking the device away with his tails, looked worriedly to the two disappearing out of sight. “I’ve obliterated my friends!” She gripped her head, freaking out.

“No, Sticks. They just tumbled down the hill, come on!” Tails went to fly over to them but while rushing, was intercepted by Eggman’s new machines. Dramabot and Theatricity. The two were created to control the emotions but their own robotic simulation of them got out of hand as well…

“You-!!!” Sticks rose her boomerang to them as Tails was knocked down.

“Aw, little honey badger so UPSET?!” Dramabot mocked, shaking his head around. “Yeah, well, join the club!” He gestured to his devices already on Shadow and Knuckles.

“I… must… resist… urge to… hate everything.” Shadow tried to fight it, gripping the ground. “But… I already do that, anyway!” he snapped the device off of his back and quickly gave a quick look around as he spoke again, “Kittens in baskets? Puppies chewing on shoes? Hamsters who can whistle? Phew… still hate it.” he darted his eyes around while listing the images off in his head, but sighed in relief when it seemed the device didn’t do anything to him.

“Well, ain’t that just swell for you! Whahaha!!” Knuckles cried, taking out a tissue and unfolding it neatly before sobbing profusely in it. Once that ugly crying was done, dabbed his eyes properly and put the tissue away. “You wouldn’t know what it’s like to be the one that’s hated!”

“Actually…” Shadow almost began, but was distracted by Theatricity, who came sparking over to them.

“GREAT GOLLY OF MODERN ART FORMS! We have the ultimate lifeform broken free of his encompassing doom of loathing and the red one still swimming in his sea of lonely self-wallowing! But where is that hubris of a hedgehog? And his little chatter-box of a friend, too?” The feminitate robot twirled his leg up in a strange corkscrew before looking off over the hill. “Ah! My electro-Nerobots have latched onto something! Time to set up the stage! Ohw-woah-hohohoho!” Theatricity sparked off, not even caring about Shadow being released from its device and peeked over the hill. “Oh my stars and bolts!”

Green electricity lit up by Amy’s fingertips as it traveled down to her eyes. She blinked them at Sonic having landed over her.

“Ugh… that was a nasty tumble.” He held his head, not bothering to look down a moment and realize what he was leaning over…

“Nasty? You calling me nasty!?” A green hue shone over her eyes. “I bet you wouldn’t call Sticks nasty! I’m the cutest tumble you’ll ever GET, Sonic The Hedgehog!” she smacked around his head and chest a bit, as though trying to whack him off but it only confused him.

“Ow, ow! Hey! What gives? Ames?”

Threatricity laughed, clicking her controller that changed the frisbee-like devices color in Amy’s hand to yellow.

“Ohh… I’m… I’m not allowed to say how I feel, right? I… I don’t want to upset you…” She suddenly turned very scared and shy. “Please don’t be upset with me!”

“What’s going on?” Sonic slowly moved closer to her face, as Theatricity was tumbled into by Sticks, who knawed at the controller in its hand.

“Wah! What are you doing!?”

“I’m a jungle badger!” behind her, Dramabot was holding his robotic severed hand in his head, making Theatricity cry out and reach for him.

“Oh, Theatricity… I knew thee well.” he then stuck out a robotic tongue as though perishing like a hamlet piece.

“NOOOoooo…!!!” with a dramatic cry out, Theatricity then tried to get the controller out of Sticks’s mouth. “Hand it back over, you! I don’t care WHO or WHAT you are! You won’t spoil my fun tonight!”

“It’s morning!” Tails slammed into Theatricity as well. “And your show is canceled!”

“If anybody’s wondering, the device turned off, and I found inner-peace with my demons.” Knuckles held up the device that was now malfunctioning off since Dramabot was destroyed, and then lovingly touched his chest to show his spiritual journey of self-discovery and love was not for naught.

The device in Amy’s hand started to shortcircuit, causing an array of emotions that she quickly embodied on the spot.

Red for anger, “Grr… Hrahh!” wrestling Sonic off of her, getting on top, before it turned to pink and she giggled cutely while he fought to get off of her, “Hehehe, woah! So strong~” tossing her as she covered her face and kissy-faced the air.

“Wha-huh?” Sonic was just confused, seeing a rainbow-like effect rippling over Amy’s body.

She twitched and her expression changed like drama masks before Sonic finally went to reach for the frisbee.

The color stopped on blue and she cried, pulling the frisbee to her chest, “You never notice me!!! Whahaha!”

It quickly changed to a shade of grey, “What? I have to BE under a emotion control device for you tackle me to the ground? Wow, huh, okay. Someone’s ‘shy’ alright.”

Next, Sonic tried to dive for it but Amy’s color changed to orange, “What’s the matter of you!? Why are you jumping at me randomly? Who does that!? Who jumps at someone randomly, I don’t get it! Did your mother raise you this way?”

Sonic’s face slammed into the ground, peering up as though he had had enough of all these raging emotions for one day.

“That’s it-!” he kicked the device out of her hand, catching it and forgetting about its effects. “I already have to deal with your confusing girl emotions, I don’t want to deal with a multi-polar Amy either!”

Suddenly, the device turned pink, sparking and staying on that as Sticks was pulled away from Theatricity. “Ah-ha!”

“I’d much rather deal with you alone.” and with that, he leaned back down and kissed her nose.

Theatricity was defeated and his eyes turned back to a hue of his natural green, not glowing weirdly anymore as his mouth smushed back out of their stretched-out kissy-fish lips. “What just happened?” his eyes were wide, innocent, as though he really didn’t know.

Amy was the same except she DID remember that the second she came too, Sonic suddenly caught a frisbee and kissed her nose.

“I honestly can’t say.” Amy stated, “I feel so drained and whacked out that I honestly think I’m in a dream with my music on which is creating this musical of mismatching tones and emotions right now.” She certainly didn’t seem to be in the same reality anymore…

With the two robots defeated and the devices destroyed, Eggman was returned to normal as well, having his ‘mid-life crisis’ explained by his emotions being thrown into chaos.

“That’s a shame.” Orbot commented, “You really could have skyrocketed your lawn art business.” around Eggman, he realized he had taken his robots and scrapped them into pieces of forged metal made for art.

“…Oh poo.” He seemed to deflate. “There goes my Egg-army plan…”

“Lawn army!” Cubot’s evil laughter took over as he rode a scrap metal Flamingo out of Eggman’s evil lair’s garage… “AH-HAHA. AH-HAHAHA!”

“So Happy Together” Analysis

i don’t sleep

tl;dr: tbh not much to go off on about. i think we see a new skin for Iron Bear, one with some stripes. amara smiles, i do talk a little bit about little sisters in bioshock but tbh i think this was all just a stylistic choice lol. oh and handsome jack’s masks- probably Mount Jackmore. i don’t want to get to freaked out over jack returning, but damn gearbox lol u had me there for a second. im pretty sure it’s just a reused cut quest from bl2 that they never got to implement. 

EDIT: here’s all the cut content in bl2 (plus all the non-cut content as well for funsies). you can go to the cut quests and see the audio files for claptrap’s jackmore quest

holy shit can i just vomit all my emotions rn, they’re all good so imma do that so im rational when i start analyzing stuff okay? okay! 

holy shit that was fucking great and im really glad i tempered my expectations to something smaller than i thought because i feel bad for people expecting something huge, i was under the assumption we’d be getting a new mechanic that was like ‘choose ur +1 and they’ll be able to play the game with you if you’re both online even if they don’t have the game’ which was what someone said on reddit. altho im sure the poor company is gonna get spammed now with hate like ‘WTF YOU SHOULDN’T HAVE BUILT THIS UP AAAA’. not to lie, i was slightly disappointed it wasn’t a longer stream, but i mean if they’ve got nothing to announce, they’ve got nothing to announce and HEY! new trailer!!! gonna be combing thru on the assumption this has some easter eggs like the MoM trailer did, just in case. i thought it was a cute trailer, gearbox never explicitly said what it was gonna be, a lot people all just assumed what was gonna happen was a demo/beta which sucks so i hope this doesn’t negatively impact people’s perspective of the game. im staying off reddit for now bc when i first checked it people were pretty pissed and i dun need that negativity lmao

okay! emotions are LOCKED behind closed doors. i am shifting into study mode. here we go boys/girls/those of us who know better. haven’t done one of these in a while, let’s see if im rusty at all.

claptrap! and the skull on the chair which reminds me of tyreen’s “favorite skull”. 

tv says “we are under attack, please stand by”

and afaik claptrap is near the beginning of the game, you can see part of the recruitment center behind him when the camera pans.

im thinking there might be something in the roses, specifically the hand-drawn roses later on in the trailer. will be keeping an eye open for that.

this is specifically a jakobs brand chest. i really like the see-through aesthetic of it

intro area of the game again. possible hint to the opening cutscene? tbh i was worried that’s what we were about to get because i haven’t finished the roughs of my mock up lol

so what i didn’t notice my first time through is that you can then see claptrap, also being shown in the chest

waving up at the camera. that’s not trippy at all or anything lol

this car in the foreground (with no one driving it, mind you)

randomly combusts, looking quite like elpis in that one shot of the claptrap presents pandora trailer. wonder if that means it’s gonna ‘splode.

ohhh it spins. please no spin imma get motion sick blech

shot of some cultists. one appears to have a jetpack near the bottom right there

another explosion to the beat

the shock wave!!!! that’s awesome

shock nomads cultists are back. f in chat for our shields

another cultist seconds before he gets blown to bits

it cuts to black for a secco as it moves thru said explosion

another cultist, i assume a psycho

finally some good fucking angles

heh.

idk what i expected from someone who’s first action skill line i ever heard was them shouting MAGIC WALL!!! TAAAADAAAAAAAAH

as a side note

who is shooting those lasers

we see them coming from behind the VHs, but

there’s nothing there

SPOOKY~

they’re coming from... the wall???

tfw u shot urself in the foot on accident

amara is not amused

`is this some human custom i don’t understand yet`

also i hate that i’ve done this exact dance before when i took dance classes as a kid

with less style of course, i was like 7

moze is into it, hell yeah

this reminds me a lot of Kingsman. where all the blood is like fireworks and stuff. i wonder if that has anything to do with the psycho brainwashing. like little sisters in bioshock. they see roses instead of blood, right? maybe there’s something like that going on with the psychos

i’d certainly hope our vault hunters aren’t brainwashed, anyway.

this dude looking SHOCKED to see that tho, lmfao

i relate to this man on a spiritual level i stg

man he looks pissed

omfg lol

“um”

“i guess this is okay”

the body language in this is gold i am just having the time of my life

adsfdgfhgjhgfk

this is so cute

also in retrospect, i think this is one of the turrets we see on promethea. i wonder what it’s doing here!

moze u ok?

oh nvm she’s into it, look at her! she’s dancing! She’s Dancin’!

oooo one of the robots from the we are mayhem trailer! okay you can totally see why i think they’re jakobs, RIGHT???

iirc this is a maliwan soldier

man this is a crossover event, isn’t it?

i get it now. togetherness. i gotchu gearbox.

some maliwan ships in the sky. possibly sanc-iii on the right? or a ship of the same model as sanc-iii!

this is a magitek dropship, change my mind

eh, they both start with M, fuck it.

no idea what fl4k is doing here

mayyyybe shielding themselves from the ‘firework’/confetti shower

i like that the confetti explosions are backed up by purple, you know like eridium/slag/siren powers. seriously, maybe this is just how to cultists see us Vault Hunters and the mass murder.

at the very least, the psychos.

fl4k’s into it. i wish we knew the name of their skag, if it has one. i hope it does.

well now the lasers are coming from the other side! what the hell

moving on

i think this is the HBC from the speakers, plus im pretty sure that skull and the stained glass are the entrance to mouthpiece’s arena

we also get a different colored explosion. im paranoid jack is somehow making a return (please god no), so i’ll just note it’s the same color as his eyes.

AND the chests are vomiting out gold guns, which i think, gold-plated gear, is the cult’s way of signifying standing. which im sure is a tongue-in-cheek commentary as gearbox gives out a gold weapon pack as a pre-order bonus. no, like, it even shows up as an ad on the video

smh gearbox lmao

oh, also, the cultists are doing fuckin flying impressions

im not saying its a reference to the cultist with rakk wings on the cover, buuuut

bitch it might be lol

it’s an upside-down vault symbol! ive been trying to figure out what that is in those screens for the longest time!

back on promethea and we get to see fl4k’s spiderant in action

their skag, too, of course

the jabbermon in the back there, too! i wonder if they’re going to be shock or cryo. i would imagine shock given how they’re glowing

also i love the way the flowers look in contrast to the character models

moze is so happy aw

i love the way fl4k’s skag comes flying in and slides to a stop. such a good doggo ;-;

this is beautiful, i want it as a wallpaper

moze skipping? holy shit

100% verified the best thing i’ve ever seen

i lied. this is.

is this the fast travel station effect?

also! IB is looking a bit different

i wonder if this is a redesign or if IB is wearing a new skin moze picked out

pan over to zane who clearly doesn’t notice the being of darkness and horror in the doorway

oh also, we’re on eden-6 now. which would explain the fast travel effect

psychos dancing on the rooftops lol

oh god my eyes

nothing to really say here, i just like this screenshot

pink shields booyah

this is so fucking cute

we also get a better look at that one facility on eden-6

is that... red i see? >w> i won’t say it i won’t i won’t say it i swear i just- ATLAS

fuck

i like that zane’s clone spawns with his melee attachment

not AS excited as the real life version though

GB pls let this be a zane emote

is that a varkid? on eden-6?

wtf is a varkid doing on eden-6???

more shots of the facility btw. reminds me a lot of sanc-iii so maybe this actually is the supamax mfg construction facility like i originally thought. hmmmmmmm

ah yes, of course

holy shit what is this a reference to?

im told it’s the sex pistols

the back of the bullet turns into Athenas

pans in

amara!

enemy with a top hat on. some variation of/upgraded gravedigger? it’s like a psycho but recolored with blue pants and a top hat. you can see it fall off when amara shoots him

y’know, these guys

some rakk in the background

i am hoping bc this is a celebration of togetherness we’re seeing all enemies everywhere, not that the planets don’t have their own unique fauna.

she’s so happy omfg

oh, you want some?

Uhhh then there’s THIS sequence

they’re doing the flying thing again lmao

there’s also whatever that black blob is on the left. a spaceship maybe?

car wheel

all their eyes started glowing red. uh oh gamers

also another fast travel effect

hmmmm... zarpedon is that you??

back on pandora.

“super 87 racetrack”, maybe this is near that motorcade fast travel we saw?

huzzah! rainbows!

i do believe that’s sanctuary-iii

another ship. drop ship?

elpis is looking nice this time of year. definitely not explode-y. yet.

pret-ty sure that’s iron bear. moze is standing atop the tower lmao

also! back to it’s old paint scheme. looks like moze was using a skin or smth

we also have this. are my eyes failing me or is that a big cross on the left? could be where jack was buried. 

also i know there was cut content in bl2 about Mount Jackmore! and this looks like a Mount Jackmore to me. it’s a cut quest where claptrap asks you to basically ruin the thing. but since the quest was cut, it’s still here in bl3. maybe they’ll reintegrate the quest lol

i can’t imagine it being roland’s gravesite. because it looks like the below.

i do know we’re going to roland’s grave in bl3, but the statues don’t really match up. maybe it is and the statues were broken, or ruined or something and replaced by a cross. could be then that the gravesite was defaced with, well, the guy that killed him. 

im really hoping jack doesn’t make a return. im fine with dealing with what he set in motion, and his influence, and probably even some ECHO logs and movie trailers, but please, for the love of god, don’t actually bring him back, AI or otherwise. im really excited for the calypso twins, i’d really hate to see the focus shift back to that guy. he’s had his fingers in every borderlands game. it’s time to let him go.

idk what this is exactly. it looks like maybe that weird eye bot troy stands next to in the intro for the behind closed doors panel?

goodbye mr magical jakobs chest, it’s been real

the RC now has red drapes going down it. have those always been there? i don’t remember those

hmmmmmmmmm maybe we’re looking at it from the back 🤔

anyway, that’s all she wrote. i haven’t see any hidden morse code messages or anything yet, but if something surfaces, i’ll be sure to add it here.

✿ Day6′s YoungK x Female!Reader ✿ Fluff ✿ 1.5k words ✿ Not requested ✿ Written by Sunni

WOWOW, I’m still in existence?! No, but really, I’m actually so sorry for not posting in so long but I have more scenarios coming, I promise! I was quite hungry when I typed this but for those that are not familiar, the congee that is referenced in the story is like a Chinese rice porridge dish! -Sunni

      YoungK tapped his foot to no beat in particular, antsy to get off the train and finally enjoy a meal. He hadn’t eaten all day and it didn’t help that he was going through your food blog yet again. You had updated just yesterday; the buddae jiggae looked delicious. YoungK was a sucker for a runny yolk on top of any jiggae and he promised himself he would try this place in the future.

       Like many times before, YoungK had left a comment on this post as well.

YoungFoodieK: Runny yolk! Makes me crave thousand year old egg and Chinese food!

       So here YoungK was, on the train to enjoy some congee at a place he’d been going to for years. The elderly woman who ran the small restaurant always gave him an extra thousand year old egg in his congee. He was also planning to order some turnip cake and shrimp dumplings.

       YoungK wondered when you’d post next. Your posts tended to be quite sporadic. Sometimes, they would be one day a part and other times, nearly four weeks would go by without a single post.

       On occasion, you would actually reply to YoungK’s comments. This time was not one of the times but you did like the comment. YoungK and you had exchanged opinions on the rainbow food trend (the two of you agreed it was blown out of proportion and completely unnecessary) and even discussed whether Korean or Chinese style jjajangmyeon was better. Your conversations would never venture further from the topic of food but YoungK didn’t mind.

       Not only did all of your posts have great pictures of the food but also tips on transportation to get there and even warnings about rude staff or primitive bathrooms. To YoungK, you were more than a foodie. You were like a tour guide for all the places worth trying. He appreciated the honesty in your critiques and it wasn’t like you were any other person who just truly enjoyed food. You were quite the chef yourself and had even graduated culinary school.

       The biggest mystery of all, however, was what you looked like. The most YoungK has seen of you was your hand holding an ice cream cone. But he was convinced you were a cutie. You were so consistently kind in your comments. YoungK couldn’t help but be infatuated. He’d drawn an image of you in his mind several times. Each time, however, you looked different. In the end, your appearance remained a mystery.

       YoungK sighed in relief as the train finally approached his stop. He enjoyed the sunshine on the short walk to the restaurant. YoungK even knew that this type of weather was your favorite. You mentioned it in one of your many posts of ice cream. YoungK hoped in the back of his mind that this weather wouldn’t mean the restaurant was busy. He didn’t think he’d last one minute longer before eating something.

       The place was mostly full but YoungK was immediately greeted by the owner who recognized him as the “Pretty Guitar Boy” even though YoungK wasn’t even a professional. He’d stupidly brought his guitar with him once after practice and the old lady just wouldn’t let him live it down. YoungK had to admit, though, t was quite a flattering nickname. YoungK gave her a bright smile and ordered his usual plus the shrimp dumplings. She gave him a cup of tea in the meantime. Then, she disappeared to put the order in and seat more people. One girl that looked around his age was sat two tables down from him. YoungK only took interest in her because she ordered the same congee as him. Thousand year old egg congee wasn’t very popular and it certainly couldn’t be selling well in this type of weather.

       Soon enough, a steaming bowl of the porridge was placed in front of YoungK and he wished he’d asked for it to be room temperature so that he could dig in right away. In the meantime, YoungK ate his dumplings and observed the girl near him as her bowl of congee was placed in front of her.

       She took out her phone before even taking a bite and took a picture.

       YoungK was intrigued. But there was no way. No way YoungK would be so lucky as to just randomly meet his favorite food blogger in person. Much less at a restaurant he’d practically become a regular at but you were only just now discovering.

       Next thing he knew, YoungK received a notification that you had made a new post. YoungK’s jaw dropped as the girl not too far away was now putting away her phone and picking up her spoon to try the congee. He scrambled to open the notification.

       There it was. The same dish, the same bowl, the same table. It was you. Right there. YoungK craned his neck to get a better look at you but realized how strange he must look. He realized, however, that you were cuter than he had ever imagined. YoungK debated whether or not to approach you. Every part of him wanted to. But how weird would that look? Or would it not be weird at all? He could introduce himself first then if anything, he’d take the rest of his food to go and jet out of there.

      YoungK tripped on his own feet as he slid out of his chair. This was already not going well. He took a deep breath and reminded himself that he’d performed in front of thousands of people. One girl shouldn’t frighten him. YoungK took careful steps and the distance between the two of you was shortened very quickly.

       “Excuse me,” YoungK began. He kept his voice down, as to not call attention to himself but said it with enough confidence that he wouldn’t have to repeat himself.

      You looked up, obviously surprised that someone was speaking to you. You put down your spoon and YoungK tried not to be awe-struck. “I’m sorry,” YoungK started again, “I just recognize you. From you blog. I’m quite the fan,” he laughed. He held out his phone so that you could see the post you’d just made.

       Peering over the phone, you began to laugh, as well. You looked up at YoungK and gave him a shy smile.

       “Thank you, you’re the first person to ever tell me that,” you replied.

       “Well I’m sure I won’t be the last,” YoungK said smoothly. He hesitated to continue when he was only met with silence. “I’m, uh, YoungFoodieK,” he admitted.

      You looked up, slightly in shock. “Oh,” you said, your voice going up an octave. “You are a fan,” you said. YoungK couldn’t help but laugh at loud.

      “Did you think I was lying, then?” he asked, still laughing.

      Now you were laughing along with him. “No, no, it’s just that I always wondered what that person was like in real life,” you explained. The two of you maintained eye contact for a few seconds until the owner came over and hit YoungK lightly on the head.  

      “What are you doing?! Eat your food before it gets cold,” she nagged. “And stop bothering my customers!”

      YoungK held the back of his head dramatically. “Grandma! This is...my friend?” You shrugged at the word and then took over.

       “Don’t worry, we know each other.” The elderly woman accepted your answer and moved on, waiting on other tables. “Would you like to eat together?” you proposed. YoungK gave you a bright smile. He felt blessed to be eating with such a food expert.

       The meal continued with a lot of getting to know each other. YoungK was finally able to ask you all the questions he had about your culinary school experience and how you became interested in all this to begin with. The two of you discussed what foods you could never live without and which ones you hated. He discovered that you had an allergy to cranberries but assured you that you weren’t missing out on much. By the end of the meal, YoungK was sad to admit he still had so much to talk about with you. He tried to stretch his last few bites of congee but it simply didn’t taste nearly as good when it was cold. He wished he had saved his dumplings or something.

      You checked your watch and realized the time. You explained to YoungK that you had plans to attend a friend’s birthday party not too long from now. “Should we ask for the check now?” you asked, gingerly.

      YoungK saw his opportunity. “Oh, don’t worry. It’s on me.” You immediately began to protest but YoungK made a shushing motion. “You can treat me next time,” he hinted. “Okay?”

      A small smile spread over your lips. “Okay.”

       The two of you exchanged phone numbers and you made YoungK promise to text you whenever he was craving something. YoungK felt his heart swell a bit at the thought of going on an actual date with you. He felt like the luckiest person alive.

...I am literally so incredibly sad that Day6 finally goes on a world tour and doesn’t come to NY...New York City is THE city. Like?? And I didn’t get to see them last year when they came because I was literally taking a final at the exact same time as the concert. I hate hate hate school. -Sunni

Please don’t claim this as your own and please don’t do anything with it without my permission. If you don’t want it happening to you, don’t do it to others.

Day 2: Chasing Waterfalls on the Road to Hana

Today was supposed to be an early start for our Road to Hana day trip… But we didn’t get up as early as we intended. After we got ready, we headed over to Baked on Maui in Haiku for a quick breakfast that was supposed to be eaten on the road but ultimately eaten on the patio there. For breakfast, we enjoyed their ham and tomato eggs benedict and cinnamon knot (as they didn’t have any cinnamon rolls available). We scarfed both down and quickly started our trip, hoping to get as much of a head start on everyone else as possible before traffic and crowds picked up. 

What we had read about the Road to Hana was that it was literally a road trip to the town of Hana, located in the southeastern part of the island, a trip that usually takes up an entire day. Usually, people make tons of stops along the route to Hana to see the scenery, which consists mostly of waterfalls and other tropical island sights, and to try different foods from different stands and food trucks along the road. 

Our first stop of the day was at Twin Falls, located just a short drive south of where we were staying. When we got to the site, the owners of the private property on which the waterfall flowed said that access to the waterfall was closed. So instead of being able to walk right up to the waterfall, we enjoyed a view of it from a distance before moving along to the next stop, which was the Bamboo Forest Hike to the Na’ili’ili-haele Four Waterfalls. 

When we arrived at the location marked as the Bamboo Forest Hike, we found a lot of cars parked along the road so assumed it was the right place to be. I found a spot to park in but was wary of it because there seemed to be a large hole in the ground between the road and the trees that looked troublesome to park next to. However, in the next moment, I saw some tourist heads pop out of the hole. Must be the entry/exit point to the hike! We stepped down into the hole in the trees and found ourselves standing beneath a canopy of bamboo trees with a muddy dirt path leading through the forest. 

We followed the path and the tourists in front of us as we wove down a hill and through the trees until we reached a creek. At the creek, we spoke with one of the other tourists on his way out of the area. He informed us that there was a waterfall hidden further into the forest that was definitely worth seeing and that it was only a short hike away. With that information, Cynthia agreed to cross the creek and follow the trail a little further until we reached the waterfall. We crossed through the creek and hiked a bit further, slipping past thick brush and climbing over fallen bamboo trees until we spotted the waterfall located upstream of the creek we had just left. We again crossed the cold creek at a deeper upstream area until we had a good view of the waterfall from a distance. 

Cynthia and I took a short break on a boulder to enjoy the views of the waterfall and surrounding area before we turned back and retraced our steps back to our car. Supposedly, only afterward did we find out that we only saw the first of about four waterfalls (Na’ili’ili-haele Four Waterfalls) that fed into each other in this area, not realizing that there was more to be discovered at the end of the hike before turning back. Oh well. It was already hard enough trying to hike into that first waterfall in flip flops. Don’t think it would’ve been possible to push much further with better footwear. 

Our next stop was at a roadside grove of Rainbow Trees, also known by its real name Eucalyptus degulpta or by its common name, the Painted Gum Tree. These trees are well-known and well-photographed for their colorful tree trunks, which look like they have been painted in a myriad of colors, from lime green to rusty orange. A very unique sight indeed.  

Because we couldn’t get much closer to the trees than to see them from a distance, we quickly returned to the car and drove off toward the next stop: Waikamoi Waterfall. Instead of hiking to the waterfall, we drove past the trailhead and arrived at a little parking area located a couple hundred feet away from the waterfall. The first thing we noticed when viewing the waterfall from the car: lots of people sitting around the edge of the plunge pool and other people standing above the pool near the ledge of the waterfall preparing to jump in! This totally reminded me of cliff jumping and canyoneering in Cebu and I started to get excited! 

Cynthia and I hiked down to the plunge pool and stood there for a moment, enjoying the sight of people happily jumping from the cliffs into the water probably 20-30 feet below. For a few minutes, I wasn’t sure if I was going to join in on the fun. One, because the water was a bit cold. And two, I was a little nervous since it’d been a little while since I stood up to my fear of heights and jumped off a cliff into the water. But after standing there for a few moments and going back and forth about whether to jump or not, I finally decided, what the hell. Why not! I’m in Hawaii on vacation and what better time to jump from a cliff next to a waterfall than here and now? So I left my shirt and flip flops with Cynthia and climbed up the rock path to the ledge. I stood there for a couple of minutes as I watched a father and son duo jump ahead of me. Again, I was a little nervous, so standing there for a moment allowed me to catch hold of my tucked away courage before I jumped. I could feel my heartbeat beating a tad faster than usual as I got ready to jump. And just like that, I jumped, feet first into the oh-so-cold water below! Even though it was nerve wracking, it was also thrilling and fun, just as I remembered it being when I jumped so many times in Cebu that one day a little more than a year ago. At first, the cold water was cold but it quickly became a refreshing escape from the humidity and heat above. As I swam back to the rocky shore to meet Cynthia, I couldn’t help but be pleased with my decision to jump. 

After briefly drying out in the sun, we continued our road trip and made a brief stop to check out the free admission Ke’anae Arboretum. We did a quick one mile stroll in and out that was highlighted by more Rainbow Eucalyptus trees. But other than that, there wasn’t much else to see there. So we left and drove only a short distance before we hit our next stop, which was one of our most anticipated stops of the day: Aunty Sandy’s Famous Banana Bread shop. 

We had read online about how good banana bread was in Maui and found that many travelers especially enjoyed the fresh banana bread made at Aunty Sandy’s, located right off the Hana Highway. Because some time had elapsed since our last meal, we made a quick pit stop here to enjoy their fresh, warm loaf of banana bread. And it hit the spot! Though it was a hot day, the warm banana bread was delicious and we really enjoyed it, even if it was lacking a scoop or two of ice cream to complement it. Cynthia and I only made it through half of the banana bread before we drove off down the side road to check out the Ke’anae Lookout Area where we watched the crazy waves beat against the rocky coast for the first time this trip. But we didn’t stay too long, knowing that there was still a lot of distance to cover before the end of the day.

Our next few stops were all waterfalls. Upper Waikani Falls was the coolest of them all, with three good-looking lower waterfalls next to each other that you could appreciate from the road and a veil-like waterfall streaming down from above that looked pretty cool too. We also saw Pua’a Ka’a Falls, Hanawi Falls, as well as Makapipi Falls, which was also cool in a different way. 

The last stop that we made before reaching Hana was the Hana Farms Roadside Stand and Restaurant. We checked out their merchandise and pondered buying a cookie (that we ended up not buying) before finally driving into Hana. We tried to visit the Hana Cultural Center to culture ourselves but unfortunately they were closed. Instead, we stopped at a little parking lot where a few food trucks were parked and bought ourselves a late lunch at Ae’s Thai Kitchen. Lunch was not Thai food (since it didn’t look great) but fish tacos and fried chicken quesadillas from the food truck, which weren’t terrible but not fantastic. To refresh ourselves after a heavy lunch, we bought a nice smoothie made of liliko’i, mango, kale, honey, and coconut water which we enjoyed in the hot, humid weather. 

Rejuvenated, we drove through town to the Road Past Hana to check out one last site: The O’heo Gulch and Pools of O’heo. This site was located within the southernmost part of Haleakala National Park so we had to pay for our entry ticket (which would be good for tomorrow as well) and see what we needed to see and leave the park by 5:00pm. So we quickly hiked in to see the O’heo Gulch, which was pretty dry, and hiked back out so we wouldn’t get fined for leaving late. Funny enough, as we walked to our car and were about to drive off, I spotted two people with familiar faces hidden under their masks walking by us. It was Peter Nguyen and Karen Nie, my former residents at Olive View-UCLA Medical Center! What a small world that we would run into them randomly on the way out of a national park in the most isolated part of an island during a pandemic at closing time! 

We only caught up briefly before Cynthia and I headed back on the road to slowly make our way back to Haiku. By this time, the sun was starting to set. Because we wanted to avoid as much driving in the dark as possible, I really made an effort to drive as quickly and safely as possible to get back. We only briefly stopped by Wailua and Paihi Falls on the way back to take a couple of photos before driving two hours back to the AirBnB with the occasional car-side glimpse at the other waterfalls we had visited or missed on the way in. For much of the trip, we were stuck behind slower cars but I guess it was good since it made me drive safer. 

By the time we arrived back in town, it was getting late and food options were slowly dwindling. Because we really wanted poke and most places that offered it were already closed, we ultimately decided to grab some of that pre-mixed poke and rice we saw yesterday at Safeway. The food wasn’t bad and we finished it up at home before cleaning up and preparing for a very early morning at Haleakala for sunrise. 

5 Things I Learned/Observed Today:

1. Liliko’i is the Hawaiian passion fruit. It is slightly different from the passion fruit we most commonly know because its outside is yellow compared to the purple passion fruit that is normally seen in various places. The lilko’i flavor is seen and used everywhere in Hawaii, especially as shaved ice flavoring and in smoothies and drinks. 

2. On Maui and on the Road to Hana, they sell a product called the Hana Tonic that is a drink or elixir with the active ingredients of organic ginger, pineapple, B vitamins, lemon, and cayenne that supposedly helps with the motion sickness associated with zooming through the Road to Hana. I wonder if it works...

3. Jeep Wranglers are the rental car of choice in Maui. And they come in all colors, from red to yellow to blue to black! Must be fun to drive in but I’m sure it’s way more expensive than my little compact car... 

4. There are tons of honor code fruit stands dotting the roadside along the Road to Hana and in Hana itself. At these fruit stands, you pick up fruit and you leave money. I hope that we tourists have been trustworthy! 

5. Even though the Road to Hana is all the way out there and not a prime tourist area, beware of the police. Even though it’s so far away from most big towns and cities on the island, there are still police that lurk in the area finding reasons to catch you off guard and ticket you. Don’t be that guy we saw who got ticketed for parking his car right in front of a waterfall and a sign that read “No Parking.”

highschool! au | sweetiepie! taehyung w/ player/basketball player!jungkook

summary; taehyung and jungkook are the type of people who are really known around the school by all of their classmates. ironically, they don’t know about each other…

warning; uh mature language ya

part 1 | part 2

                                                   Taehyung

  “Taehyung, whats the answer to number 5?” Jimin whispered to Taehyung, who was sitting right next to him in math class.

  “I don’t know, dude. At first, I got 5 but then I messed up and somehow got 106, so honestly, you’re asking the wrong person, bud.” Taehyung shrugged, pouting his big lips to his best friend of 4 years. They were now seniors in high school and were super ecstatic to be in a class with each other. Unfortunately, they didn’t know how much one would distract the other so they have some trouble in their shared classes, including math. 

  “You’re useless.” Jimin ran his fingers through his hair frustratingly and decided to give up on his worksheet that was going to be due the next day.

  “I give up. I suck at math. When are we ever going to need this pre-calculus shit?” Taehyung whispered to himself.

  “Well, actually if you get a certain jo-” Jimin butted in who Taehyung just glared at to not finish his sentence.“Rhetorical question, Minnie. Rhetorical.“ 

  Taehyung took a breath, putting his head down on his desk. He was beyond tired since he had to get up really early to have his siblings up in time for school and fix them breakfast since his mom was asleep still when he woke up. He didn’t have the greatest morning either, to top it off. He spilled coffee on his favorite shirt he chose to wear today but had to put it in the washer and put on a plain black shirt along with his ripped jeans for school. When he dropped off his siblings, he went straight to school and ended up being caught in morning traffic.

  Once he got to school, he had 5 minutes left to spare to get to class. Normally, any student would think that’s enough time to get to class. Unfortunately, for Taehyung, it actually stressed him out a lot. He normally likes to arrive at school 30 minutes prior so he can talk to his friends for a few minutes, look over his homework and make sure most of it is done, and eat a proper breakfast from the school cafeteria. He ended up being one of the last few people to enter the classroom, which shocked some classmates who were paying attention. It’s not that Taehyung was a school goody-two shoes or anything. Its just everyone is used to seeing Taehyung being class while he greets almost everyone since he sits in the middle of the classroom.

  After his first few classes, he wasn’t able to concentrate very well, which frustrated him to no end. Some of his classmates offered him to just take notes for him but he kindly declined since he would feel bad for letting someone do that. Taehyung looked towards the clock and noticed that it was almost lunch time and he couldn’t be anymore excited."Dude, are you okay? You look more tired than usual.” Jimin asked worriedly. Taehyung is tired most days but not as tired as today. He was just completely done with today already. All he wants to do is eat, go home, and go back to sleep. Unfortunately, he has to finish his school day, pick up his siblings, make sure his siblings and mom have dinner, do some homework, and then he could go to sleep. It was his daily routine, and he still manages to have a social life.

  “Had to take the kids to school. Mom didn’t wake up in time. Spilled coffee on my favorite shirt. Got stuck in traffic. Was almost late to class. Just not the best day, to be honest.” Taehyung huffed, wishing for some ramen right now.

  “Damn, I’m sorry Tae. Well, maybe your day will get better, you know? I mean you can’t have a rainbow without a little rain.” Jimin giggled which made Taehyung come up with a small but sincere smile. Jimin was always the optimistic one in there friendship. Not that Taehyung was the pessimistic, Taehyung was just more of a realist some would say when it came to his own problems. When it came to others, Taehyung would not stop to no end to make sure the other person was feeling better. That’s what Taehyung was also known for, anyway. He was always known as being very supportive to others, even strangers, and also being just a happy person overall. Even though, Taehyung might be a realist when it came to his own problems and was tired most of the time, he was happy. He loved taking his sibilings to school at times, he likes making sure school is going good for him, and he likes taking care of his family. Doing these things make him feel like he has a purpose in this world, you know?

“Yeah, yeah.” Taehyung waved.

 -

  “I’ll have one cup of ramen with sausage and egg, please.” Taehyung smiled toward the lunch lady behind the counter. Unlike the stereotypical lunch lady personas that people and television have made up, she smiled brightly towards him and said “Coming right up, Taehyung.” Some people might find it rather odd if the lunch lady knew their name, but not Taehyung. Taehyung wasn’t popular, as like in the “I’m cool! I have parties and smoke! Come hang out with me!” kind of way. He was popular as in, “Oh yeah! Taehyung! I went to grade school with him. He’s the sweetest person you’ll ever meet.” and recently as in, “Oh Taehyung is so sweet! He dated that Minjae guy, right? Too bad, Minjae broke up with him. His loss, though.” Those are some of the reasons on how people know Kim Taehyung.

  “That’ll be 6.94.” Taehyung heard next to him, which was a tall, black haired boy in front of the cashier with his own tray of ramen and a water. HE looked towards the boy and noticed he had a really nice back. He seemed very built but also really tense for one split second.

  “Uhm…” Taehyung heard the boy’s unrecognizable voice say. His voice was even nice.“I only have 4 dollars…” the boy said awkwardly while trying to be apologetic as well. Taehyung furrowed his eyebrows and felt a little bad for the boy next to him.“Oh, well then I’m sor-”

  “I’ll give you the change.” Taehyung said while getting his wallet out getting $3 out. While he was gathering his change, the black haired boy turned towards the blonde hair boy who was very close to his height and widened his eyes in shock which was also found in his voice.

  “N-no dude, its fine. Ill just wait till school ends.” The black haired boy, who was looking at how nice the boy next to him looked in such a simple outfit.

  “Dude,” Taehyung scoffed, still counting, trying to get his change for his change for his lunch as well,“Its just $3. I got this. You can eat lunch in peace now.”

  "Thanks..” the other boy said gratefully. Taehyung handed the change to the cashier and before he could spare a glance at the slightly taller boys face, the boy was already walking towards the back on the cafeteria where Taehyung doesn’t sit at.

  Once Taehyung sat down, he heard Jimin and Yoongi having a dispute about something. Their arguments always amuse him because they both act like they hate each other even though they totally want to get into each others pants. Jimin actually has had a crush on Yoongi for quite awhile now, but Yoongi started being an ass towards him randomly some time last year, so Jimin was just an ass back. Taehyung knew Yoongi was only an ass to Jimin was because he didn’t know how to deal with is feelings towards Jimin. Its like your classic fan fiction, honestly.

  “How can you say that? These shoes probably cost more than your piece of shit car!” Yoongi spat towards Jimin who just scowled back.

  “Oh, I’m so sorry,” Jimin put up his hands in fake defensiveness, “Did I hurt your shoes feelings? Awe…poor tacky shoes.” Jimin said while backing up to look at Yoongi’s shoes.

“Fuck you, Jimin.” Yoongi rolled his eyes.“You fucking wish, Min Yo-”

  “Okay, okay guys. Can you guys go a day without fighting? Jesus, as much as it entertains me, it also gives me headaches.” Taehyung groaned while setting up his lunch.

  “Bad day, Taetae?” Yoongi said softly. Taehyung softly nodded while having a soft smile to reassure that he’ll be fine.

  “But, I did help someone pay for their lunch just now which makes me feel good inside. I feel like a good human being.” Taehyung smiled widely since he did feel good about himself. He probably would’ve paid for the boys meal if he let him.

  “Always being sweet Taehyung. Living up to your name.” Yoongi said while him and Jimin smiled towards Taehyung who just blushed and started eating his lunch while hoping for a better day.
