A little over a year ago, on February 3rd 2024, Clark Joseph Harman was murdered. He was 12 years old. Not even 24 hours prior, He had been legally kidnapped by two men from a "transport" or "escort" company that had been hired by his parents. He was brought to Trails Carolina, a "wilderness program" and part of the troubled teen industry. The act of being legally kidnapped in this manner is often called getting "gooned" in survivor communities.
Before I properly start, I have a note: I learned of his name because someone in the r/troubledteens subreddit found it not long after I heard of his case. I did not learn his name because it was consensually released by his family. As such, I will use only his initials (CJH) throughout the rest of this post. I decided to head the post with his name because I think it's important that people know it. It was not consensually released, and that should be respected, but he was still a whole person. He was a twelve year old boy with a name and a family and so much life left to live. All of you should witness what was taken from him.
The medical examiner's preliminary report states that after CJH was gooned, he went through a check-in to process him into the program. He was uncooperative at first, demanding a phone call with his parents, but was able to cooperate after talking to them. He was placed on a 1-1 with a staff member who was with him at all times. The staff member says CJH chose not to eat dinner. Then they went to bed. According to Trails' protocol, he was to sleep on the floor of the cabin with a staff member sleeping beside him. His set up was a thin mattress with a thick plastic sheet folded into a canoe-like shape and set on top of the mattress. Above that, a sleeping bag inside a bivy with a zipper alarm that would go off if he tried to leave his tent. CJH slept but he was restless and mumbling. He had a (staff-permitted) moment outside his tent around 11pm but then goes back to "bed." Around midnight, he is restless and mumbling in his sleep once again, and he begins thrashing. It eventually subsided. Routine checks were performed by staff, but the bivy being opaque meant that they did not actually see CJH. I will note that this detail was against protocol. Normally, the bivy has a mesh interior door and the staff would have been able to see CJH in their routine checks. However, the mesh door on the tent they used that night was broken, so they used the weather resistant outer door instead. Despite these routine checks by staff, the thrashing at midnight is the last noted incident until morning.
And yet morning comes, and a little boy is dead. Staff find him in his tent lying on his right side with his feet at the head of the bivy and his head at the tapered end of it. He is cold and unresponsive. 911 is called, CPR is unsuccessful and a little boy is dead. A little boy is dead and they don't notice until morning. A little boy was kidnapped and now he's dead. A little boy was in the troubled teen industry for less than 24 hours and he's dead because of it. He will never get out of the industry and he will never leave that wilderness program and he will never heal from the trauma he was forced to endure because he's dead. They killed him. The program killed him, the staff killed him, our government killed him, those goons killed him, his parents killed him, you killed him. A little boy is dead, and an uncountable number of people are at fault.
There's an extent to which his parents are victims too. They lost their son because of an awful choice they made. And while I don't know these people personally, I do know enough about how this industry works to know it's highly likely that they believed in what they were doing. Everything they did was legal, and everything they did was advertised to them as something that would help their child who they didn't know how to care for. I'm not saying it was a good decision, but I know how predatory this industry is. A parent who doesn't know where to turn, a child who clearly needs help, and suddenly a web page. Or a hired educational consultant. Or another parent. Or a pamphlet. Something or someone that tells them "There are schools and programs for children like yours. There are options for parents like you." They say "Send your kid to Trails Carolina. It's like a summer camp for kids who need help." According to several cult researchers, the troubled teen industry is much like a cult. The parents are often people who genuinely care about their kids and truly believe this will help. The cult drew them in as cults do. CJH was killed by his parents and their choice to send him to trails. CJH was killed by his parents, and that cannot be changed. They will always have to carry that responsibility, and I cannot stress enough how it was their fault and they do have a part in this. But if I let a single person come away from this with the impression that they are entirely or even mostly to blame for their child's death, I will have failed to communicate just what this industry is and what it does to children and their families.
The system at large is what's at fault. The program itself, Trails Carolina, has killed kids before (Alec Lansing, 17, died of hypothermia after being injured while attempting to run away from the program, Trails Carolina, November 23rd 2014). Other programs have killed kids before, both recently (Cornelius Frederick, 16, killed in physical restraint, lakeside academy, May 1st 2020) and further in the past (Phillip Williams Jr., 15, official cause of death was a "brain aneurysm" but this was determined with no proper investigation and he had been severely beaten in some sort of "therapeutic boxing ring" before his death, Elan School, December 27th 1982). These programs are not made to help us. They are made to fix us. And in practice, all they do is kill us and traumatize us. They manipulate, they brainwash, they abuse, they hurt, they kill. All of them do. Even the ones that supposedly don't utilize physical restraint methods. Even the ones where staff don't sexually or physically assault the kids in their custody. Even the most tame and least violent of programs. Even the ones that don't interrupt our academics, even the ones that don't drug us with excessively or incorrectly prescribed medication, even the ones in tourist hotspots like hawaii, even the ones where a kid can work with horses or dogs or rabbits. They all abuse us. All of them.
And it's legal. It's all legal. Even our deaths are legal. Trails Carolina was forced to shut down after CJH's murder, but other programs still exist and the DA chose not to press charges. Let me say that again. The District Attorney. Chose not to press charges. For manslaughter.
On November 6th 2024, District Attorney Andrew Murray issued a press release where he stated that while CJH's case was "heartbreaking" and "tragic," that it "did not involve criminal intent or recklessness sufficient to warrant criminal charges for involuntary manslaughter under the law." The carelessness of having CJH sleep in an opaque tent where the staff could not get sights on him during their routine checks was not enough. Letting him to sleep in a tent where such suffocation was even possible in the first place was not enough. Having an alarm on the door so he would be unable to get out without consequences was not enough. Forcing him to sleep in this tent despite the fact that he was both "audibly and physically upset" about this sleeping arrangement was not enough. A dead child was not enough. And it will not be enough so long as these programs exist. Everyone that put him in that situation and everyone who allowed it to go without any sort of legal charges or reform is at fault for this child's death.
And that includes you. Every single one of you who is not a victim or survivor of the troubled teen industry. All of you who watch these children die and say nothing. All of you who force survivors and victims to trigger themselves over and over again in an attempt to speak up against the system that hurt us. All of you who don't listen. All of you who listen once and then let yourself forget about us. Every single one of you.
A child is dead, and more will die. And it feels like TTI survivors and victims are the only ones who care. How many of us will die because of you?

Howdy, fateful friends! Are you an artist or illustrator with an interest in visual novels?
If so: Moirai Myths, creators of the visual novel The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe), are in need of guest artists! More specifically, we're looking for up to two artists to help us with the content graphics ("CGs") for Maeve and Shae's upcoming routes. All of the details will be listed on our application form (linked below), but here is the gist:
This is paid work with 20-30 business day deadlines per piece!
Complicated revisions in the post-sketch phase are compensated!
You will be prioritized for future guest artist opportunities!
You will be featured/credited on Moirai Myths' website and in the game itself!
Sound interesting? If so, apply here:
Click under the cut for some F&Q 👇
Who are you? (I'm new here!)
Hi! We're Moirai Myths: a small, newish visual novel company based out of Canada. We're making a game inspired by mostly Irish mythology, which was funded on Kickstarter in 2023! Our game's got fairy politics, a diverse cast, a Gaeilge-to-English translation tool, and routes that can be played either romantically or platonically! Also horses. An ungodly amount of horses, really.
If that odd pitch sounded intriguing, perhaps you'd like to play our demo! It's free on Steam & Itch.io.
Why are you looking for guest artists?
When we originally launched our Kickstarter, the plan was to have our three in-house artists collaborate on the CGs in the same way our header image was. However, we quickly realized that adding CGs, even if they're done collaboratively, onto the existing duties of our artists was a tall order. Add to that the departure of our original sprite artist (who has since been replaced by our graphic designer), and we determined that having our in-house team work on CGs was simply not possible if we still wanted our first release to happen in 2024. So, rather than omitting CGs or adding them in at a later time, we came up with the idea of hiring guest artists. Overall this means our CGs will be a bit more varied in terms of art style, but we like to think of this as a positive! NDM's development will take a number of years to complete in full, so we hope our CGs will allow us to feature a lot of artists either within the VN/indie dev community already, or artists who aspire to work in gaming and are looking for entry positions.
How long will applications remain open for?
This application will be open until Sunday, March 24 at midnight (EST)! If we intend to extend past that deadline, we'll make an announcement about it.
I can't apply right now. Will you look for more CG guest artists in the future?
Definitely! As mentioned, NDM will take a while to develop in full, so this is by no means your only opportunity to apply. That being said, we suspect we're going to end up shortlisting a number of artists over the course of this application period, and we intend to keep a list of all the runners-up. So, even if you won't be able to participate this time, it might be a good idea to apply anyway just to remain in our contacts! Either way, this will not be the last time we have apps.
Will you be looking for guest artists outside of CGs?
Maybe! We already have two guest artists (Nefukurou and Madi Funk) working on sprites and CGs respectively, so it's always possible that we'll have other artistic needs later down the line. Likewise, we may also reach out to past guest artists for future work with us, whether it's on this game or something else!
You say we need to sign an NDA. What does that entail?
The non-disclosure agreement essentially means you will be legally unable to publicly disclose any confidential information you become privy to as a result of working with us. This would include personal information about the developers, as well as spoilers from the game itself. In addition do this, you will be expected to sign over the IP and copyright of any artworks you produce for us.
Can I still use my artworks in portfolios, even if I don't own the copyright?
Yes! We'd only ask, if your portfolio is a website, that you wait to do so until after your art has been made public by us, either on our social media or via the publication of the game. Our first release is anticipated to happen later this year, most likely mid-autumn.
How do you guys feel about AI? Do you intend to use it, or would you ever train an AI off of the artworks whose copyright you own?
No.
Making a game is expensive and time-consuming, but AI is no replacement for human artistry. We fundamentally believe that any advancements in AI should be used for the purpose of giving people more time to make art, not take away opportunities for it. Moirai Myths will never, ever use AI or train an AI off your work.
***
If you've got any more questions for us that we didn't think to include here, feel free to send us an ask!

Spiral Statement
*Fan statement inspired by The Spiral, go look on my profile for my last 3!"
Ozzy Statements Episode 4: Chaotic Geometry
Statement of Jeremy Pilchard regarding his time in a nightmare of shifting reality. Original statement given February 9th 2001. Recorded by Ozzy, The Archivist.
Statement begins.
God I don't even know why I'm writing this, none of this is real. You're not real, none of you are. Maybe it wants me to face it's utter insanity as a way of gloating. Maybe you're going to save me. Either way, I'm just so tired of this chaos.
On the off chance you *are* real, you'll probably wanna know my name is Jeremy Pilchard, and that I'm currently 24… I think. Who knows at this point? Either way, it's time to confront my insanity! How fun!
Normal was my middle name growing up, I never stood out to any degree. I never got any awards, I had the average amount of friends, unremarkable grades, just a boring guy all around to be honest. I think I took it for granted. I would do anything to just go back to that bland, dull life. It even continued a couple of years into adulthood, I got a boring office job, an average amount of exes, an uninspired apartment, a standard wife, you get the gist. And, as you might expect, I was feeling a tad depressed. I looked forward 20 years and saw myself living an identically uninteresting life, buried so deep within the crowd that I could never escape. The thought terrified me, so when the letter came, I was giddy.
There was nothing overly special about that day, although there never was for any day. Nonetheless, the mysterious dusty letter came out of the blue, it slipped through my letterbox without me even seeing who had delivered it. The envelope itself stood out to me as odd, a seeming contradiction. The paper seemed old, not overly yellowed but still showing significant wear - tea stains, wrinkles, battered edges, et cetera - yet the stark and intricate modern pattern evoked a sense that it really shouldn't be. A sense that this was important, and should have been taken care of. The front of the envelope, below messy angular handwriting of my name and address, consisted of dozens of tiny interlocking triangles forming a sort of ocean near the bottom of the letter. Growing out of this ocean of geometry, a fractal emerged, seemingly also made of rudimentary shapes like triangles and squares. It was hard to be sure though, because it seemed to shift as I looked at it, I was getting a headache just studying that envelope. Clearly I was enraptured, as I stood there with it in my hand for half an hour, before dazedly tearing it open.
Within, there was a small slip of paper, far smaller than the envelope suggested, about the size of a Post-It note. This scrap was pristine in comparison to its container, and held a simple proposal: “Make everything change - go to your nearby field at midnight”.
There was no question in my mind, it was not a suggestion, it was a command, it was hope. I desperately craved to spice up my life in some way, and that is what this peculiar letter promised. I did as it asked. I know you'll likely find this decision stupid, but at that point in my life it felt like it was either that or have a mental breakdown from sheer boredom. So at midnight, I did indeed go to my local field, which was only a ten minute walk away, and was shaking with excitement. This was perhaps the only risk I had taken in my entire life, and I desperately hoped it would pay off.
It was immediately clear why I had been told to go there: in the middle of the field, where kids would play football in the day. Now, explicably, there was a nondescript wooden shed right in the middle, at the kick-off point. From what I could see it was a cube, tiny and rickety, ready to blow away at any moment. I wondered who exactly had built it and why; surely it's construction would have taken more than a day, and yet I hadn't heard any kids complaining of not playing football. Either way, I made my way to the shed, and placed my hand upon the handle. The door was shiny and intricate, marked with those same fractals and triangles, but the handle was rusted, as if it has seen months of rainfall. I was shaking, but still excited, “what the hell, why not?” I thought as I pulled it open. The instant I did, my eyes blurred and reality seemed to pervertedly bend, until for some reason I appeared to be standing on the other side of the door, facing the outside. It didn't even occur to me to turn back around; whatever this shed was, it had already done what it sought to do to me.
As soon as I stepped back outside, the world twisted. The field undulated with hills, until I was thrusted up high by a mountain emerging. The clouds welcomed me, and I could see nothing but white. But then I realized that I was actually just looking at the white paint of the football pitch. I lurched my head away, but ended up knocking it hard on another field, suspended in the air. Blood ran down my face, then suddenly started running back up into my hair as gravity shifted and I fell back onto this other football pitch. I blinked and the other one was gone, I blinked again and suddenly everything was a pitch, as if I was trapped in a sphere of pure turf.
It started getting smaller and smaller, enclosing around me like a massive snake's body. I looked down at myself and realized with horror that I had no arms, I had no legs, I was instead made of pristine glazed wood. I was… the shed. Before I could consider how fucking ridiculous that was, the world squeezed my frame and my supports buckled. Every plank was splintered and crushed ceaselessly, as the spherical confines squeezed down to nothing. Just as reality ceased to exist, constricted to oblivion, I awoke. Tears rolled down my face as I bolted upright, looking desperately around to confirm that all was as it should be. I gasped wretchedly relieved breaths, shuddering at how real it had all felt.
After ten minutes of sobbing, I finally composed myself, and got out of bed. My wife walked in, probably ready to confront me about me disappearing at midnight. Before she could step any closer to me though, time seemed to freeze, and slowly she unraveled. Her eyes extended out like a grotesque version of a cartoon character, but they kept extending, turning to flaky paint and losing their third dimension. Torturously drawn out, she began to scream, wider and wider her mouth stretched until she was torn in half. What was my wife had green insides, and they contorted out, unfurling from the organs. The house disintegrated into a flurry of triangles as the football field returned, flowing out below me. I screamed, begging on my knees. I looked up at the sun, a factor that hadn't been there in my previous bended nightmare. Suddenly when I blinked the sun expanded to a million times it's original size. Gravity shifted again and I fell away from the football pitch - the lines of which seemed to be now arranged in a cruel smile - to fall into the sun. A cacophony of senses imbued by horror embraced my mind as the blaring sun melted everything from my soul.
I awoke once more and… I'm sure you can see where I'm going with this. That time the walls of my houses started shifting and shuffling until I was split in half by a banister emerging from a wall. I awoke the time after that to just a void with floating simple shapes in it. I was crushed between a triangle and square. At this moment I think I've woken up around 2328 times. I don't know what day it is, I don't know the true nature of this awfulness, whether it is a loop or whatever. All I know is that every time I wake up, the geometry of everything changes to torment me. Multiple times I've found myself back as that shed, what kind of curse turns you into a fucking shed?! Sometimes I see other people, but they usually bloom into weird shapes or turn into a field. Maybe nothing has ever been real, maybe my boring life was just a fantasy I made up long ago to cope with this Hell.
I woke up here, but I don't know why. Usually I've died in a gruesome way by now. Or perhaps this isn't real either, maybe this is all in my head as I'm actually hurtling towards another evil football field or bundle of triangles. I'm just so tired.

Some Jiyan Fun Facts
SPOILERS: Chapter 1 Act V and Act VI, Jiyan's Companion Quest and pretty much everything in Jiyan's profile
I got the source of Jiyan's character stories from his profile in the Wuthering Waves fandom wiki, and his voicelines in game.
- As I mentioned in one of my posts, Jiyan is around 23 years old.
From what Yangyang retold in the beginning of Ch1 Act V, we know that Jiyan became General after the "Battle Beneath the Crescent".
Taoqi explains Battle Beneath the Crescent in the beginning of Act VI as a gruelsome fight that occured 3 years prior to the game's events against TDs that were native to the norfall barrens and produced by Retroact Rain.
In Jiyan's character story 2, "The Reason To Fight", Jiyan was said to have taken the role of General at 20.
In summary, 3 years have passed since the Battle Beneath the Crescent, the event that led to Jiyan becoming the General at 20. Hence, Jiyan is 23 years old during the game's events.
I would like to clarify though that it's not clear how soon after the battle Jiyan became appointed as General, and I'm going under the assumption that he got the position within the same year as the battle. At the very least, he is 20 at the youngest and 24 at the oldest.
- He is the youngest General in the Midnight Ranger's history, as described in his character story 2 : "The Reason to Fight".
This also means that Geshu Lin is older than Jiyan.
- Jiyan joined the Midnight Rangers as a medic around the age of 13.
According to Jiyan's Companion Quest, Jiyan was part of the temporary team that set the record of the Gulpuff Relay 10 years ago. One of the illusions of the audience members from that decade-old relay also describes Jiyan as a "new recruit".
Knowing that Jiyan is around 23 as of the game's events, this means that Jiyan was 13 when he joined the Midnight Rangers.
If I stick with the idea that Jiyan was 20 at youngest by the time of the game's events, this would mean Jiyan joined at the age of 10.
- Jiyan was born into a medical family, becoming his mother's assistant at age 10.
As described in character story 4: "What's inside his gourd?". As a little bonus, he stores common medicine inside his gourd.
- The scales on his left jaw appeared after his forte-awakening/when he got his powers. It seems like that's the only place where the scales are.
As described by Jiyan's Forte Examination Report: Resonance Evaluation Report.
"Post-Awakening observations found some growths that resemble Loong scale on his left jaw. No indications of progressive expansion have been detected."
- Jiyan first got his resonance power in Yuanwang camp in Desorock Highland.
As described by Jiyan's Forte Examination Report: Resonance Evaluation Report.
"Resonator Jiyan's Forte-Awakening was observed at the Yuanwang Camp located in Desorock Highland." It was recognised when Jiyan accumulated air currents to form a lance.
- Jiyan has not yet Overclocked. Apparently his frequency is highly stable, hence his low risk of Overclocking.
Described by Forte Examination Report: Overclock Diagnostic Report.
For those who forgot (bcs me too tbh), Overclocking is just essentially where a resonator's powers are overused, and can cause disasters. Other characters, such as Mortefi and Sanhua, are more prone to Overclocking.
Side Mortefi fun fact: his scale growth increased after Overclocking, meaning that Overclocking can change a resonator's appearance.
I would really love to go more into the lore information about Jiyan's power in the Forte Examination Report but a lot of things in it are unclear right now, though they do look interesting.
- The death of his last patient and friend, a Midnight Ranger named Beiwang, was what finally pushed him to join the battlefield. His spear is fashioned after Beiwang's own.
A summarisation of character story 4: "What's inside his gourd?" and voiceline: "Chat I: This spear was modelled after the weapon of Captain Beiwang."
- Jiyan doesn't like Bittberry, though claims to have grown accustomed to it.
Essentially his mother believed that enduring bitterness meant you will become better, and she always put it in his food. He didn't find it very pleasant but got used to it since supplies are scarce.
As described by voiceline: "Disliked Food"
Side fun fact: I bring this up because you can see that he looks a bit nervous to receive Bittberry tea relative to the other characters in the Bottoms Up! Bittberry Tea Web Event lol

Gut Instinct: Chapter 6 - Saturday
[Art] [Ao3] [Prologue] [Chapter One] [Chapter Two] [Interlude] [Chapter Three] [Chapter Four] [Chapter Five] [Chapter Six]
[This chapter is mature. MDNI. It does fade to black though because I got too shy about writing and posting smut]
Munson follows him upstairs. It'll be nice to have the help now, as much as he wanted space back in the kitchen. Munson can carry the pillows while Steve gathers bedding. The couches in the rec room are comfortable but the room itself gets colder than the rest of the house at night. Due to the proximity to the garage.
He enters his room with the intention of just pulling his comforter off and stealing the pillows, and Eddie follows after.
"Jesus, Harrington! What in plaid hell?"
Steve takes in his walls, the realization that it's been a long while since someone else besides him was in it. Well, Robin's been up here a few times, but they prefer to hang out in the living room.
"I didn't pick the wallpaper, man," Steve says even as he frowns at the walls, "but, uh, yeah. I really should move to a different room, huh."
Munson barks a laugh. "Just gonna move into one of the guest rooms instead of deal with this?"
"Sure," Steve agrees, amused, "I'll just shut this door and tape a sign up that just says Torture Chamber on it. Lock any of the gremlins in here for being too annoying or something."
That gets him a real laugh from Munson, who also looks surprised that he laughed. Which reminds him.
"Did you get to look at the note?"
Munson looks at him, confusion clear on his face.
“The one I gave you after the basketball game?”
The confused look clears and Munson says, "oh, uh, no. It's- I think it's in the van?"
"Your van!" Steve exclaims, suddenly remembering the abandoned vehicle. Macx had said she say Eddie flee in it. They should go get it before someone finds it. "we should go get it, while it's dark out. Where did you-"
Steve, who had turned on heel and was heading to the door, is stopped by Munson, a hand landing solidly on his chest even as he also moves to block the door. "Dude! No! It's hidden, and nowhere near your house. People are gonna know I'm here if they see it."
"Did you miss the empty three car garage we parked in somehow? No one will see it. Especially not if we go get it right now, in the dark."
Munson doesn't look convinced, as his eyes flick away from Steve to his window and back. It would have been missable, the tension in Munson suddenly, except his hand is still on Steve's chest and he feels the twitch of it as Munson seems to steel himself against his own thoughts and- oh.
Munson's entire life has been upended and it's just now coming up on the 24-hour mark. It was just last night that he watched Chrissy die. God, Steve's an idiot. Of course, he doesn't want to go on a midnight adventure to retrieve his van. He probably just wants to try and get some sleep.
Steve brings one of his own hands up to cover Munson's, and aims for reassuring and calm as he says, "Hey. Yeah, it can wait. We got more important things to do tonight."
That brings Munson's eyes back to his face, when they had previously been staring at Steve's hand covering Munson's own. Steve can see some of the old fight and fire back in Munson's eyes. It makes him look less like a traumatized man and more like the person he was when Steve was in school with him, ranting on cafeteria tables and unafraid of anything.
It makes Steve want to kiss him.
He pulls away before he acts on that urge and moves to his dresser. "I'll just get changed and then we can get cozy."
"What side do you normally sleep on? Or, do you have a favorite pillow I shouldn't use?" Eddie asks once Steve's retrieved his own pair of sweats and turned back around. Eddie is eyeing the bed but turns his gaze to Steve while he waits for an answer.
"Uh, no favorite pillow. Just, pick whatever. I'll be right back. Gotta brush my teeth," Steve dips out the room and down the hall to the bathroom.
He's not in the bathroom long. Brushes his teeth and changes, throwing the day’s clothes into the pile he made by the door earlier. He realizes he didn't bring a t-shirt and debates putting the polo back on but decides he doesn't need it. He can sleep without a shirt, it's not like Munson's never seen a guy without a shirt on.
“Okay, so I’ve got more blankets in the-” Steve starts to say as he enter his room, cutting himself off as he loses his train of thought. Munson has not stripped the bed, as Steve thought he would, but instead has crawled into it.
He’s on the far side of the bed, laying on his back, but his face is turned towards the door when Steve enters. He’s under the covers, his own shirt removed if the bare arms and shoulders he can see are any indication. His eyes are closed, so he doesn’t see that Steve is staring at him.
It occures to Steve only now that Munson might have misunderstood where Steve meant for them to sleep.
“Are you going to actually get in the bed, or stare all night?” Munson grumbles without opening his eyes.
Steve should probably clear up the misunderstanding. He should.
Except that he doesn’t feel bad about not doing it. There’s no churning in his gut that says this is a bad idea. Munson seems alright with sharing a bed, and Steve’s slept in the same bed with friends before.
Steve flicks off the light and crosses the room, crawling into his bed and settling on his back, mirroring Munson.
It’ll be fine.
It’s about fifteen minutes of what feels like awkward silence when Munson rolls over in the dark, and Steve does his best to not move. He's probably just rolling in his sleep. It’s been long enough to fall asleep, right? And Munson’s probably exhausted.
Fingers brush his side and goosebumps break out in their wake. Those fingers retreat, and Steve thinks perhaps it was an accident, Munson reaching for something in his sleep that isn't there. But then, the fingers return, press more firmly to his side, sliding along the waistband of his sweats. He feels his muscles spasm beneath Munson's hand and he doesn't know if he wants to pull away or push into it.
"Eddie?" he whispers into the darkness.
"Is this- do you not want...?" Munson whispers back, trailing off his question. He doesn't move his hand away but he does halt its movement.
Does Steve want? Yes, of course he does. He's been simmering on just this side of horny since Munson manhandled him into the wall of the boathouse, bottle to his neck notwithstanding. However, Munson's had a shit 24 hours and needs decent sleep, not Steve being a horndog.
Although.
Steve knows a good orgasm can help with falling asleep. And if Munson is wound up, he's more than willing to help.
He's been silent too long, it seems, because Munson's hand starts to retreat.
"No, no, I do want," Steve breathes out in a rush, bringing his far hand to land atop Munson's -Eddie's- hand, because if he’s going to get off with him, he’s no longer going to be just ‘Munson’ in Steve’s mind. Steve placing his hand on Eddie’s does halt Eddie, so Steve trails his fingertips up Eddie's arm to his elbow and back down to his hand. "But, do you? It's been a long day for you, I think, and we can just sleep."
Eddie let's out a harsh breath, "I'm in thee Steve Harrington's bed and the only thing that's going to be happening is sleep?"
Steve doesn't know what to say to that. Doesn't get why Eddie said his name like that or what he means. Is he being sarcastic? Is he teasing? "I mean, yeah. Beds are for sleeping."
"Do you want this or not?" Eddie asks, slipping a couple fingers beneath his waistband.
Yes, Steve thinks, but you do? His stomach clenches, not really nausea but certainly not the good feeling of the Just Knowing he's gotten used to. He grabs onto Eddie's hand, lifting it from his body and shifting it so they're palm to palm. Steve links his fingers with Eddie's but he doesn't fully return the grip. He hears Eddie's soft gasp as he scoots closer, rolling over and propping himself up at the last moment, taking the hand intertwined with Eddie's as he goes, pressing that hand into the pillow near Eddie's head so that Steve is somewhat hovering over him now. The light is dim but it's enough that Steve can see Eddie's face, see that his eyes are open and wide. "Do you want this?"
He watches as Eddie's brow furrows, like Steve's asked a complex question and not for simple consent. "I- isn't this what you wanted?"
"What?"
"You!" Eddie basically shouts, and if Steve didn't currently have one of Eddie's hands pinned to the bed and the other trapped between their bodies, he's certain Eddie would have thrown them in the air. "You've been, like, super suggestive all fucking night, dude, and I thought- it seemed like you were implying a certain way you'd like to end the night! I... Did I get the wrong read here?"
Steve's a little embarrassed that he's been this obvious. He did try to keep his attraction under wraps, if only to not make Eddie uncomfortable. But he doesn't seem uncomfortable about realizing Steve's little crush on him. And he reached out first. "Yes. Or, no, you didn't read this, me, wrong, but I wasn’t trying to- it's late and you just learned monsters exists, so we can-"
"Great. You want, I want, can we get on with it? You said there were plenty of ways to distract from the horrors. So, distract me, or whatever," Eddie huffs and Steve feels him half roll towards him, hooking a leg over Steve's before falling back to the mattress, a move which pulls Steve closer, his leg slotting in between Eddie's, who now rolls his hips to rub against his leg.
A grin spreads across Steve's face slowly. "Oh, I can distract." He shifts, clasping tighter at the hand already holding Eddie's, gets his leg into a better position for Eddie to roll his hips against and leans down to nose at Eddie's neck, drags his lips along its wake. He's pleased by the soft sigh Eddie lets out, head falling to the side to allow Steve more access. His hair, wild and curly, is in the way, so Steve places his weight on his elbow and uses his free hand to sweep the hair away before dropping a kiss on his shoulder, then another further up, and another. "You okay with biting?"
"Fuck, yeah," Eddie hisses out and Steve grins against his neck, placing a few more kisses there before opening his mouth to nip playfully. Never fully biting down, not in the way Eddie seems to want if the hand that's freed itself from between them and found purchase on the back of his head, trying to push Steve closer is any indication. But that's not what Steve meant by biting; he's more a 'little love nips' kind of man, soothing them quickly with kisses and licks.
"I thought you were going to bite," Eddie groans, sounding annoyed even as he rolls his hips against Steve's thigh.
"I am biting," Steve ends the sentence by nibbling up and down Eddie's neck quickly, which earns him an honest to God giggle from Eddie, who frees his hand from Steve's grasp to shove it into Steve's face, pushing him up and away from his neck. Muffled by Eddie's palm now, Steve adds, "what, too much?"
"Jesus Christ, you are the biggest dork on the planet," Eddie mutters but from between Eddie's spread fingers, Steve can see he looks almost fond. "is this how you treat everyone you bring to bed?"
"Hmm, no," Steve mumbles into the palm still in his face before pressing a kiss there, "just the ticklish ones."
"I am not ticklish!" Eddie squawks indignantly, dropping the hand from Steve's face down to Steve's shoulder. "It just felt weird."
"Pretty sure weird feelings that make you laugh means you're ticklish."
"Yeah, well, you promised biting. Not... whatever the fuck that was," Eddie rolls his eyes.
"Just getting a nibble," Steve grins down at him before grinding his leg against Eddie's cock. God, the feel of him. Steve wants to touch him so bad suddenly. The desire to feel the weight of him in his hand, the velvety feeling along his palm, how his cock might feel in Steve's mouth, how a different a dick not his own in his hand might feel, all of it hits Steve hard.
“Jesus Christ, you’re such a dork,” Eddie says, in a tone of breathless disbelief. Steve thinks the two, the breathlessness and the disbelief, are seperate from each other but he has no real way of knowing. “Have you always been a dork? Does this work for you?”
“It’s working on you right now isn’t it?” Steve lowers his head to whisper the words into Eddie’s ear, “you still want me to touch your dick, right?”
Eddie’s silence is enough to tell Steve that he’s right.
He turns his face into Eddie’s neck and presses his lips to the skin there once more. He drags his lips down to where neck and shoulder meet, pressing a kiss there and trailing them a bit across his shoulder before he finally bites down, pulling a pleased sounding his from Eddie then.
“Can I leave a mark?” Steve asks. He wants to, the possessive part of him wanting to leave a large hickey on Eddie’s neck for people to see and question. Nevermind that the only people who will be seeing him for an unknown amount of time is pretty limited.
“No,” Eddie is quick to say. Steve tries not to let it sting. It makes sense, after all. How would they explain the hickey when the only person Eddie’s been around is Steve? And no matter how much Steve trusts everyone, he still hasn’t come out to them. He wants to do it on his terms, and not because they put two and two together.
Also, Eddie definitely gets a say in whether or not anyone knows about him.
“Well,” Eddie adds, softer than his ‘no’ was, “I guess if it’s somewhere it’ll be hidden by clothing that’s fine.”
That sounds like a good compromise. “Good to know.”
Eddie’s snorted half-laugh turns into a groan as Steve’s hand, which he’d been slowly moving closer to Eddie’s dick, finally makes contact, rubbing teasingly through the boxers for just a moment. Steve adjusts his weight to get more space between his thigh and where he’s trying to slide his hand beneath Eddie’s boxers, tipping his head to look down between their bodies.
Turns out holding someone else’s dick in his hand does feel different. Everything he thought Eddie’s dick would feel like in his hand is true, though; the velvety skin, the weight of it, the warmth. The length is a pleasant surprise. Steve’s not going to whip his own dick out to measure right now, because he wants to focus on making Eddie feel good, but he would place good money on Eddie’s dick being a bit longer than his own.
Steve hopes that this isn’t a one-night, distract-from-the-horrors-only thing, because he really wants to have this dick inside him at some point. Despite the fact that all of Steve’s sexual experience has been woman, he’s experimented. He likes a dildo up the ass, so he thinks he’ll really like Eddie’s dick there.
“Fuck,” Eddie curses, reminding Steve that more than just Eddie’s dick is here in bed with him. A bit embarrassing to have forgotten the rest of the guy. “You’re quite a good distraction.”
Steve looks back up to Eddie’s face and gives a smirk. “I’m just getting started babe.”

Just Get the Tampons, Will
Note: The original link was giving me trouble, and I think it's because it's a reblog, so I'm making an original post just to link.
--
No disrespect to PD but I just really wanted Will to get the tampons.
So I wrote it.
Here you go. It’s not heavily edited, written in 3rd person POV, and meant to give you a laugh. I hope it gives you a laugh.
“Guys, shut up, my wife’s calling,” Will announced to the still rowdy car. Smiling despite it, he slid his thumb across the screen and hit the speaker button in a fluid motion. “Hey babe, you’re on speaker,”
“Can I not be?”
Three pairs of eyes slid his way; Damon from his left, Michael from the rearview mirror, and Kai rotating around from the front passenger seat, each with a salacious gleam. Grinning, Will turned toward his window and dropped his voice. “Why? You got a secret you wanna tell me?”
His wife huffed. “Not like there’s any secrets in this family anyway. Can you pick me up some tampons on your way back into town?”
The scandalous vibe of the group immediately dissipated in the face of real world responsibilities. Will shifted to check the clock on the dash - nearly midnight. They had finished up some meetings in Meridian and stayed for a late dinner before starting back to Thunder Bay. “You’re out?”
“I had a box, but our son thought they looked fun ‘growing’ in the toilet water. The pharmacy here’s already closed, not that they carry my brand anyway.”
“I’ll call Banks,” Kai offered from the front, already pulling out his phone. “Maybe she can run some over.”
“Thanks, but she uses a different kind.”
Will scrunched his face. “Does it really matter?”
“Do you have a favorite condom brand?”
The only sound that could be heard in the car was the low music as each man considered the question. None volunteered an answer.
“Thought so.” He could hear her smugness on the phone and imagined that look she got when she knew she was right. He had to remind himself his wife probably wasn’t up for sexting now, given her physical state. Though he had heard that organisms help with cramps, so maybe…
“So, can I count on you or am I free bleeding in your bed tonight?”
Will blanched at the idea. Michael was already hitting the freeway exit. “You can count on me,” he said, not at all excited about it. “Send a picture?”
A few minutes later, Michael pulled into the empty parking lot of a 24-hour pharmacy. “Thank god,” Will muttered, opening the door and stepping out. “Wish me luck.”
“Embarrassed?” Kai asked, laughing to himself.
“Nah,” Will lied. As much as he loved sharing everything with Em, he loved her even more for keeping that part of her life to herself. She even promised to handle The Talk with the girls when they were old enough. He was only slightly concerned that Indie was getting close to that age. What was next? Bras? Boys?
His mind pulled hard left away from that thought.
How did Michael do it? They only had Athos for a few years before she was a teenager. He felt like it was going by all too quickly, and couldn't imagine how Michael handled it.
On the other side of Michael’s Land Rover, Damon stepped out. “You’re going too?” the driver called in disbelief.
“And miss this moron wandering around the Pink aisle?”
Will rolled his eyes and swung the door shut behind him. He made it five feet before he heard all three doors shut and shook his head. “You guys’ suck balls.”
The four men strutted into the pharmacy the same way they strutted to face any opponent, with confidence and swagger. Once inside the door, they came to an immediate stop, unclear of where to go next. The bright florescent lights spanned across the ceiling of the large store, shining down on the many, many aisles.
“Where would they be? Near the medicine?” Will asked.
“She’s not sick, dipshit,” Damon said.
“Well, I don’t know!”
“We should ask,” Kai reasoned.
“I’m not asking.”
“Either ask or I leave you here,” Michael told him. “I want to see my wife tonight.”
Will grumbled, grabbing a cart and heading farther into the store. His eyes swung from side to side, looking for any sign that he was nearing his target or a store employee. He hoped for the former.
He found the latter.
A young girl stocking the bottom shelves of the paper goods section. Brown flyaway hair that had parted from her ponytail stuck fell around her face. She looked fourteen. A wire ran from her back pocket to one of her ears, muffled music playing as she focused on her task. He hated himself.
“Uh, hey,” he said from the end of the aisle. She jumped, dropping the 12 pack of extra-large toilet paper rolls. Quickly, she pulled the headphones from her ear. “Sorry,” he offered weakly. Clearing his throat, he continued, “Uh. Where are the, uh…”
Exhausted and not nearly as entertained as he thought he’d be, Damon interjected. “Where’s the girly shit.”
“The what?”
“You know, the shit girls use.”
She blinked, eyebrows drawn in confusion and probably fear. At nearly forty and with five children, Damon still had that effect on people. “Make-up?”
Will could feel Damon’s irritation twisting at his side. “Tampons!” He shouted to cut his friend off. “I need tampons.”
Michael and Kai tried not to be obvious with their laughter, hiding behind their hands, but Will could still hear them at his back.
“Oh,” the girl gasped, but then she gathered herself. She pointed deeper into the store. “Three rows down, on your right.”
Will nodded, looking to where she was pointing. “Thanks.” He pushed the cart. He didn’t even know why he had the cart, other than it was giving him something to grip. How many boxes was he going to need? He should have asked. He pulled his phone out, checking to see if Em had sent that picture.
Nothing. He sent a question mark, hoping for the best.
Behind him, Kai said, “You really shouldn’t be listening to music if you can’t hear the door. Anyone could come in.”
“Move it along,” Damon called. “You can’t be everyone’s hero.”
Will found the aisle just where the girl said it would be and walked in. He scanned the shelves, looking for something that was familiar. He’d seen the box below the sink a hundred times. It sat right next to… her face wash? Mouth wash? Extra toothpaste? He really needed to pay more attention.
Was it a pink box? Nearly every box was pink. Some were black. Who were those for? Did she want the pretty one with the nice applicator or - what was super? Super meant better, right?
He checked his phone again. Still no picture.
“What’s the hold up?” Michael asked. He seemed to be avoiding looking at the boxes all together.
Will shook his phone. “No picture.”
Kai picked up a random box. “Reusable? How- “ he flipped it over. “It’s a cup?”
Michael cleared his throat, casting his eyes to the box in his friend’s hands. “I heard Rika and the kid talking about that. Apparently, it’s better for the environment.”
“Athos uses it?” Will asked, grabbing a second box. “Is that healthy?”
“Says it last ten years,” Kai read aloud. “Medical grade silicone. I wonder if Banks would like it.”
Damon grabbed the box from Kai’s hands, ignoring the glare he received. He tossed it into the cart, along with five others that were on the shelf. “Decision made.”
“Hold up,” Will said, “I don’t even know if that’s what Emmy wants.”
“It’s good for the environment and is reusable so we never have to do this again. What’s there to consider.”
“Um, what my wife wants,” Will argued. “What if it’s not comfortable? What if it doesn’t work for her?”
Damon motioned to Michael. “Call Athos and get the details.”
The three men looked at him like he was insane – which, considering…
Michael scoffed. “It’s past midnight. She’ll be sleeping.”
Damon arched a brow. “Did you sleep you’re first week at college?”
Michael pulled out his phone, ignoring the way his friends laughed. Holding it out, he waited as it rang and rang, silently daring her to not answer.
“Dad?” Athos questioned on answer, a note of curiosity, but not sleep, in her voice.
“Do you use a – what’s it called?” he asked the guys.
“A menstrual cup,” Kai finished.
There was a beat of silence from the phone, before a whispered, “It’s never what I think it’s going to be.” Raising her voice, she answered, “Yeah, and how do you even know what that is?”
Will took the phone from Michael. “Is it comfortable?”
Athos laughed. “Is this for you, or someone else?”
“It’s for Em.”
“Then shouldn’t I be talking to her?”
“This is an emergency.”
“A menstrual cup emergency?”
Damon snatched Michael’s phone from Will. “Listen, you little brat,”
“No, you listen, you werido,” Athos broke in, still laughing, “Don’t get her anything she doesn’t already use.”
“I don’t know what she uses,” Will shouted at the phone. Then his eyes diverted to the end of the aisle. A second later, his friends did the same.
The employee stood at the end, the cart of items left to be stocked next to her, staring at them in bewilderment. Will could only imagine how they must have looked to her; four grown men arguing over tampons and cups at a quarter past midnight.
“Hey, little girl,” Damon taunted, “you wannna help us?”
“Oh my god, Uncle D!” Athos’ voice rang from the device in his hand. “You can’t say things like that to people.”
Damon hung up on her, tossing the phone back to Michael, who was only thankful he still had the reflexes to grab it mid-air. He started towards the end of the aisle, to the girl, but was pushed back by a hand on his chest.
“Ignore him,” Kai said, stepping in front of Damon. “He’s unstable. We’re working on the proper combination of meds, but until then-“ Kai lifted a shoulder as if to say, What can you do?
“Okay,” the girl answered, not giving away how she felt about Kai’s explanation. Damon suspected she might be too stupid to have processed what he said. Then she stepped forward, motioning toward the shelf. “Did you need help?”
The men paused, staring at her. She really did look young, her face round, eyes big and brown. She was small too. “Is it even legal for you to be working this late?” Michael asked, suspicious.
She nodded slowly. “I’m nineteen.”
“Oh,” Will said as they all immediately relaxed. The last thing he wanted to do was talk to some young kid about period stuff. Honestly, this is the first thing that had gone right all night in his book. “Great. Then, yeah. I need tampons for my wife, and I don’t know what I’m looking at.”
“Do you know what size she needs?”
Four gazes landed on back her. “There’s different sizes?” Kai inquired with astonishment.
They spent the next half-hour quizzing the girl who proved to be a wealth of knowledge. She gave the menstrual cups a glowing review, assuring Will that his wife would be happy with it, but also recommended a variety box of tampons that she pieced together was Em’s usual picked based on what Will could finally remember once he stopped panicking.
“What’s this one?” Damon said, pulling another box off for her.
“That’s a disk,” the girl said. “It’s similar to a cup, except you can have sex with it in, so there’s no blood.”
Kai looked over boxes, inspecting the difference from the one he was already holding. “Really?”
“Afraid of a little mess, Kai?”
“My sheets are expensive,” Kai responded, not bothering to feed into his goading, and tossed a few of the new products into the cart.
Feeling like he’d done his due diligence as husband of one Emory Grayson, mother of his children and woman who warmed his bed each night, Will pushed the cart to the front. Not only had he taken the girl's advice, but he filled the cart with everything in the aisle that had piqued his interest. His girl would be well stocked, and the aisle was a little less intimidating at the end of it all.
Tapping his card against the reader, he looked at the angel in disguise sent to save him. She looked tired but hadn’t given any indication she wasn’t happy to help. “You like the night shift?”
She shrugged. “I’d prefer morning so I can do want I’d like with my nights, but the manager gives those to his favorites.”
“And you’re not?”
She smiled, her eyes slanting in a way that communicated a deeper message. “I’m a bit of a troublemaker. Don’t always do things by the book.”
Will grinned, feeling like he knew exactly what she was talking about. He liked her, he decided. “Well, my friend, have a good night.”
Things usually worked out for his friends. One way or another.
–
The horsemen get the girl her morning shifts (cause in my head they occasionally use their influence and amassed power to do nice things for people they like).
Emory thought she hit send on the picture and fell asleep. She was very happy to wake up to not only the right brand of tampons, but the cup, since she wanted to try it. She was also impressed he did it without the picture… until the boys ratted him out.
Damon makes sure all the women have multiple cups so they don’t have to worry about cleaning it right away.
Kai still invests in the whatever cup he picked. I don’t know. It’s probably women owned, though.
Rika got a very confusing phone call from Athos the next day, but it made sense eventually. She had a good laugh at Will and then made sure the boys knew they couldn’t just go around asking people what products they use.
Michael’s just happy it’s over.

Thank you for reading! As always, likes, reblogs, and comments are appreciated and welcomed.

to yours, jongho
ateez busker! jongho x gn! reader fluff, angst wc: 1.8k warnings: injured reader (wheelchair-user and is said, described a few times) a/n: another inspired by one episode in the kdrama called 'tomorrow'; song has no connection to the storyline! only this song was used for the plot in the kdrama itself, and it's good! + lyrics used in the fic are from random songs, i will input it after the fic. thank you!
"How was everyone's day today? It's almost time to finally rest our eyes and end the day. There is a saying by Talmud, that rather regretting things that happened, regret the things that have yet to happen and haven't done yet. The last song for today is..."
The lady behind the radio solemnly introduces the song but it quickly fades as the bus zooms away, leaving you alone under the heavy drops of the pouring rain.
Just there. Sitting on the your wheelchair beside the bus stop, letting yourself get rained on, hopeless, tears mixing with the drops of rain in your cheeks. It was almost midnight and not even going home was on your mind, nor finding a shelter to be under in.
It felt like it was you against the world. The only thing that made you happy, dancing, was now impossible and out of reach just because of a single injury.
You glance at your casted foot and braced knee, prompting more tears to flow out of your eyes. You thought you've ran out of tears when you got your injury, your eyes seemed to always prove you wrong.
Your thoughts come to a stop when someone reaches out an umbrella over you, letting the rain fall on his back. You reluctantly and emotionlessly face the person, quietly asking him what he needed.
Surely, he's not a thief- if he wasn't dumb enough to see you still on your hospital dress.
"I'm busking near Han River tomorrow night, same time. Do you want to come?" He tries to be cheerful as he offered, his voice soft.
"Sorry. I don't have time for that." You turn, ignoring his presence again and facing in front.
"You have a whole day to decide, you shouldn't give me an answer now. It feels like you're not interested and it hurts. Do I look like I'm not a good singer?" He jokes around, but your face doesn't even budge for a small smile. He awkwardly coughs, regaining his composure. "Come on, I'll give you a VIP spot, just for you!"
"I told you I don't have tim-,"
"If you go around the corner of the convenience store there, you'll find me. Not if it's raining this hard, though! I'll have to cancel and move it to the next night. I'm a pretty famous busker there, so make sure you go early! I'm expecting you!" He blabbers, almost not making you understand.
He quickly hands you his umbrella and runs through the rain, crossing the road safely as your eyes only follow him.
When he's out of sight, your eyes trail to his umbrella, yellow brightly lighting under the lamp post.
Tomorrow's another day. Written on one side of the umbrella, with a drawing of a sun plastered beside the words, you sigh.
"Right. Another day."
It felt like it was just a blink. Did you even sleep? You rise on your hospital bed, finally zoning back in reality.
"Good you're awake. I just finished your discharge papers. Secretary Jeong will be outside after you've changed. I need to go to my office for more paperworks. Make sure you're not a pain in the ass like last night." Your mom only carelessly caresses your hair before leaving, leaving you on your bed.
Your eyes trail outside the window, sun brightly beaming its last hour.
You sigh, calling a nurse to help you around to change your clothes instead. When you were done, you were assisted out of the ward in a wheelchair, getting passed onto your family's secretary.
By the time you got home, there was nothing to do but to stare outside the window. Doors locked, eyes were on you 24/7. The sun sets in front of your eyes and it makes you dread the incoming day once again, the moon isn't even up yet.
You hear a knock outside your door, but you didn't bother even answering, knowing all too well that it didn't matter if you did. They'll force their way in, anyway.
"It's Secretary Jeong, y/n, it's late and you haven't taken any meals for today." The second you glance at the clock, it was already eight in the evening. Your eyes go back to the window, and the moon was already up. Although you swore you just saw the sun setting a minute ago. "Do you want anything?"
The secretary doesn't even expect any answer from you, but stays behind you anyway.
"Fresh air. Outside." You simply say, not even glancing at the secretary.
"You know I can't do that."
"Then try not asking next time." The oh-so-sweet attitude of yours was now long gone. As you glared at the window after being ticked-off, Secretary Jeong sighs.
"Fine. As long as this doesn't reach your mom, okay? And please, no wheeling away."
You and Jeong, as you like to call him, drive to the nearest park in your house, which is coincidentally the Han river park.
He takes you around to get the fresh air you've been wanting, holding your wheelchair tightly at all times. You do nothing and plan nothing but to admire the night view, trying to cheer yourself up.
"..Mic check, mic check..." A loud and clear voice followed by numerous cheers perk your interest in one corner of the park, and you let out a small chuckle. Jeong double checks if he hears right, furrowing his brows.
Your eyes wander around and you see the convenience store in another corner, and a forming crowd in another side.
"Right. Can I watch?" You go back to having a poker face, glancing at him. He reluctantly nods and pushes your wheelchair on a side where the crowd can't trample on you, but the singer is visible anyway.
"Then, I'll start now. Please look and listen to us prettily," He smiles and points at the people behind him having cajon and a piano on the side. He looks around first with the goal of finding someone before sighing and prepping.
A rose blossoming among the concrete Please be alive Thrive and grow, don’t snap A blanket of thorns How tough it must’ve been Thank you for standing strong
He starts off solemn, cheery. He gains a few more people to listen and interestingly look at him, singing along and waving along. The lyrics hit you like a brick, making you sigh. You enjoy the way the words flow out of his lips melodically, like it was so easy to do in real life.
“I didn’t want any of this” I can say I can hate but nothing will change Looking back now I see the me with eyes forward Standing strong getting’ by moment to moment Didn’t think much just believed in me ... I’m a rose among the concrete Until this bleak city becomes filled with color I’ll keep my head up, stand my ground until the very end Until they get drunk off of my scent and smile
When he finished the song, he gained a loud cheer and applause, making him shyly succumb behind the thin mic stand while muttering continuous thank you's.
"Okay. That was our first song," He smiles, eyes still looking around. When he finally sees someone sat on a wheelchair just behind the crowd, he finally heaves a sigh of relief and smiles at you. "It's not the end of the world. You can bloom even in the smallest things, unexpected places. You can cry, you can take a break. As long as you don't give up, the world will be a better place."
He doesn't break eye contact as he says everything, smiling at you and then back to the crowd as if he didn't do anything such as change your life by helping you.
"Okay, next song!"
Jeong takes a good look at you, because finally, after weeks, there was a smile on your face and as much as his phone was getting bombarded by your mother's calls, he couldn't care a second.
"Let me finish another song and then we'll wrap up for today. Again, tonight too, it has been Choi Jongho, everybody. Thank you!" All that mattered was his name. He still introduced the ones that came with him, though. You just didn't care.
Though a permanent scar May be the price of holding you I'll give my all to you, to you ... So you won't get any scars, I'll hold you Even when I'm hurt, I'll guard you No need to worry, I'm here for you Look at my smile, it's my all for you When all lights fade When I sink to the ground When I drown in despair I'll still hold you close
"Did you enjoy? I thought you didn't have time?" Jongho, after fixing his things and bidding goodbye to his group, has come and smile brightly at you. "I told you I had a place for you. If you came a it earlier and where I can see you, I would've placed you there beside us."
Jeong only walks a few steps away in confusion for your privacy, still keeping his eyes on you.
"Who did you come with? Who's he?" Jongho curiously looks at the man, and Jeong only looks back. When he gets no answer, he takes his eyes back on you. "Are you that starstruck?"
"Thank you." You smile, "I actually didn't remember until awhile ago, when I was already here and you were already starting. I'm glad I wanted fresh air. I'm glad I was taken here. I'm glad to hear you sing. But most importantly, I'm glad that you had the most melodic voice I ever heard." You joke around, chuckling. He also laughs wholeheartedly, smiling at you.
"I'm glad you enjoyed it too, then."
"Those songs too... Thank you. I'm not saying you sang it for me, but it definitely did its part for me. So thank you, Mister Choi Jongho." He gives you a small smile and extends his hand for you to shake.
"I believe I deserve an incentive." He sharply inhales and glares jokingly at you.
"Oh. Right. I don't have anything on me, but Jeong will." You were about to signal for Jeong when he takes your hand, shaking it.
"I was joking. Your name will do. So let's start again. Hi, I'm Choi Jongho and you're...?" Jongho smiles expectantly, waiting for you.
As your name slips out of your lips, he shakes your hand mumbles a nice to meet you.
"Don't you think you owe me another one for my umbrella?" He shakes his head, looking down on his feet. You chuckle, asking him what he wanted.
"Is it finally money because I can call Jeong,"
"Your number and maybe a few dates?" He mumbles, looking wherever except your eyes.
It takes you a few seconds before you break into a genuine smile, reaching for his phone in his hand.
"There." You give it back to him and he squeals internally, giddily on his toes and checking his phone.
"Okay, maybe that umbrella- I just found it on the lost and found area. But it served great purpose!" You gasp at the confession, finally laughing at your heart's content.
Because finally, even when you thought your world has just been broken down to pieces, an angel has come and saved you.
h1key - rose blossom young k - guard you
*i got all english lyrics from genius!

RWRB Script: Meraki Thoughts and Notes, ACT I
...Remember when I said if we don't get something new I'll reach the phase where I dissect the movie frame to frame?
Yeah so I did decide to annotate the bloody script I am that obsessed, will put this into either two parts or three parts, this is from the start to Paris
Highlight:
Red: Deleted Scenes
Yellow: Different from the movie
Blue: Fun/Interesting Movement Descriptions
Green: Extra Information of character/set
Right off the bat, we have a deleted scene
I need someone to enlighten me about these markings: what do the numbers and letters mean? I searched online and it said that numbers means a scene, but what counts as one scene? And what is the letter then?
Again, three more deleted scenes, what the fuck. And why is the first one labelled 1? Was the movie originally supposed to start there before they added the receiving line in re-shoots?
Henry was shaking a person's hand when Alex comes up to him in the movie
TRIES TO LICK IT???? ALEX THE FUCK
Also note how the frosting thing is before "tell me something" here but after that line in the movie: In the movie, Henry didn't not see any of the frosting shenanigans since he turned away to greet someone else. The script doesn't state what Henry's doing while Alex fucks up
Two more deleted scenes!!! One of which should be Aneesh's favourite scene to film where Alex asks her how much trouble does she think he's in
Canonical Zahra and Ellen age
Ellen staring at Alex was not in the final cut, we go from the credits directly to Ellen's line. Also the "killing him" is sort of a book reference: P28 Ellen: "all I want is to have the CIA fake your death and ride the dead-kid sympathy into a second term"
TWO MORE DELETED SCENES WHAT THE FUCK
ANOTHER ONE
Ah so that's why Taylor's post of him in "Kensington Gardens" captioned “IT'S ALL LUSHHH”
Huh, he's awed
Nick improvised Henry's "Both" line
Clench teeth not that visible in the actual scene but we get the message
"Juicy photo" what the fuck
"This won't be fun" about that Alex....
Two more, one of which is the Cornetto scene, what's the other one?
Obviously we did not get this line about the outlets in the movie, but also ??? Do American outlets not have lights? Is he talking about this thing? (the red part is a light)
Henry you're enjoying yourself aren't you
ANOTHER ONE
Well this is a mess
"Essentially Spooning" WHAT
I feel like "isn't entirely unsexy" is from the book but I can't remember???
"The most shit-eating of grins"
He didn't wave, he did the V hands. That was probably Taylor lol
Canonical Oscar Age! So both Oscar and Ellen are 55, let's say movie Alex is 25 then Jesus Christ he's right they were babies when they had Alex
ANOTHER ONE I'M SOBBING AT HOW MANY AT THIS POINT
Firstprince Book list!!!
So this is the opposite in the movie: Henry was the one to turn around and face up instead of Alex, Alex was staring at imaginary Henry the whole time until he went to press "hang up" on his phone, on his other side
what the fuck 😭
Canon Percy Age: 24!
He was in fact wearing a white blazer with black swirls (I really liked that outfit).
"Percy is just as impressive as his clothes" HELL YEAH
"coppery-mustard"
"knowing smirk" the fuck
POST WALLFLOWER LMFAO
"dancing his ass off" love your word choice Matthew
"subtly bops to the music" yup, somehow think that applied to Nick at parties too
Aww Alex finds it "ridiculously endearing"
"even sexier midnight kiss" lmfao
"crestfallen" awww nooo Henry bbg :(
"Everyone's hands are on him, wanting a piece of ACD"... huh.
WHAT IS IT NOW
"They look so right together"
"panic growing in his chest, genuine fear crossing his face" HENRY 😭
"utterly gobsmacked" again, interesting choice of words, but accurate
TWO MORE WHAT THE FUCK
Alex was not on the floor, he was stretching against the sofa, I feel like that's a Taylor thing, but also he needs to see the TV on the wall
AGAIN????? MATTHEW!!!!
"Young James Bond" YUP
"entranced by Henry"
THREE???? ARE YOU KIDDING ME????
"trying out the perfect suave and sophisticated pose to greet Henry" ends up just standing straight
Can you fucking imagine the table read and Matthew saying "and THEY GO AT IT BABY"
"raw and aggressive and hot -- like they're trying to eat each other"
Note that the movement description didn't mention lifting Henry on the table or Alex hitching his thigh up, so that was designed on set
THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A CLOSE-UP????
“Gently” are we sure about that
"the bluest balls on the planet" lmfao
WHAT COULD POSSIBLY BE DELETED HERE OH MY GOD
"utterly devasting" yup
Okay there's a lot of differences here: Henry doesn't close the door, Alex grabs Henry's waist not vice verse, Henry kissed down his neck and chest after this dialogue and they tumble over the sofa, but also how to you expect him to kiss Alex's chest while simultaneously unbuttoning his shirt when they're both verticle
"J Crew finest" straight from the book
"The power of his thighs", "his arse bouncing hard in the saddle"
"who has never been so jealous of a saddle" OH MY GOD PFFTTT
I guess 55 is the extended polo scene with Bea and Pez
"attack each other" "pawing"
"Alex can't decide where to put his hands because he wants to put them everywhere at once" Istg this is a book line but I can't find it at the moment, will update when I do
YANKS in all caps
"Their meals are gone" So the photos from Matthew's BTS post where they had their meals was before this scene? But there isn't a deleted scene before or after the Paris cafe scene in the script?
Henry is charmed, huh
"whistles in amazement"
HE WAS SUPPOSED TO WINK?
Alex didn't laugh, we start the hotel scene with his back to the camera
"Henry wraps his arms around him" ... sorta? But in the movie it's Alex's shoulders
"on Henry's chest" okay yeah so this was for short Alex, TZP would have to contort himself to do that
In the movie we only see Henry undressing
(Dammit two more images but I reached the posting limit, hang on)

This post contains Wind Breaker spoilers starting from chapter 92, so be careful!
I was re-reading some parts of the manga and I noticed something, I thought the current manga events were happening on June 21st, but now I think it's actually happening on June 22nd
I'll try to explain it the best I can, I hope it's not confusing, please let me know if I'm just seeing this wrong or what, let's go
I thought that it was on the 21st (like everyone I saw talking about it) because it clearly says that date on chapter 99:

June 21st midnight, I interpreted it as midnight of day 20 to 21 (to be clear)
BUT THEN I noticed this chat log from volume 14/chapter 113:


They are talking at 12am, midnight of June 21st right? This conversation happened 24 hours before the war started, at midnight of the 20th to 21st (again to be clear)
Therefore the war is actually happening on midnight of June 21st to 22nd
Because it's already the 22nd, that also means that Takiishi's birthday is actually on June 22nd, likewise I only saw people celebrating his birthday on the 21st

(from chapter 100)
What do you think?? 😭 Am I misunderstanding something? I also tried to check their phones for dates in the chapter where they are on the bridge before the war started but it would only show the time, maybe it's just the chat log date that is wrong? Please give me your opinion if you want!
#Why do I care about this? Idk I just like to know when things happen in the canon#wind breaker#windbreaker#wind breaker nii satoru#wind breaker satoru nii#wind breaker (nii satoru)#wind breaker (satoru nii)#winbre#wind breaker spoilers#my posts

how is Season 7/2 being received? There used to be so much excitement here, but I didn't read anything so far. And how are the ratings? Thank you!
Personally I didn't post much from Season 7/2 so far. I think it is quite annoying that not even the Outlander_Starz account takes into account that a large part of the fandom isn't able to see the new episodes right away.
Like f.i. right now they're already posting to discuss 7.11 while in a lot of countries that episode will only drop at midnight today, and several other countries have to wait until Monday.
They act as if everyone immediately starts watching at midnight when they drop the episode. While I bet a lot of people wont do so, have a life or just want to go to sleep and see it the next day. Only a group that I think, imho is rather a small part of the fandom. That also goes for sites like 'sheknows' who immediately come with a recap of the episode, while it's not even 24 hours there to watch and as said for a large part of the fandom can't be watched already. Not everyone watches immediately or is in the circumstances to do so. I wish they would take that into account a bit more.
Add to that the many spoilers, like scenes, pics already before the episode airs, and... I don't know about you or others here, but it takes my excitement away. I don't feel like, oh I want to watch that next episode!
Sure enough, I don't have to watch the posts and pics and I genuinely try to avoid it, there are accounts that warn about the spoilers. I scroll by, I don't read but it's quite hard to avoid seeing pics and at the time I watch the episode I already know broadly the storyline, it's just the details or how it's gonna get from A to B.
I watched 7.09 right away when it was available here in NL (on 25 November, midnight 24 November), but I didn't with 7.10. I watched it only last night and I can't really say I enjoyed it. Like I said, no surprises left, and personally I'm not all that impressed by how storylines develop, bit weak I would say, apart from the storyline of Roger and Buck perhaps.
Have to say, I'm more interested in the new episodes of Yellowstone at the moment. Even though I see posts on FB, somehow FB found out I'm watching, but hardly spoilers. The new episodes of that series gave me some whooo, and aaaahhsss. OL didn't.
As for ratings, I should say it's a bit early to go see them.

Who’s Read What in Dracula? - Lucy Westenra
A spoiler-free breakdown of what documents Lucy has read, and when. I will add a new entry whenever she gains access to, creates, or finishes a document.
Links to other characters’ posts, explanation of the color-coding I’ve used, and all other notes/explanations relating to how I am sorting/tracking this can be found in my WRWD Masterpost.
Tracking begins below the cut.
May 11
Letter to Lucy
Letter to Mina
Lucy receives Mina's letter, probably either on the tenth or eleventh. Given the information she seems eager to tell Mina, I'm assuming that she writes back right away here, hence placing them on the same day. However, Lucy's letter isn't dated, so it is possible that it was sent a few days later.
May 17?
Letter to Lucy
Lucy gets another letter from Mina, in response to her first letter. I'm placing this roughly in between the two letters from Lucy, but any exact dating is speculative as we never get to read this particular letter.
Total documents: Letters to Lucy, Letter to Mina
May 24
Letter to Mina
Lucy writes a second letter to Mina, describing the three proposals she has received in one day.
Total documents: Letters to Lucy, Letters to Mina
27 July
Message to Lucy
Mina mentions on the 26th that Arthur is expected in Whitby shortly, then on the 27th says that he's suddenly been called to visit his father who has fallen ill. It's possible that he had other communication with Lucy before now (or maybe the date was set before they parted, and Mina only mentioned it when the time was almost at hand), but at least it seems that he sent a letter or telegram to let the Westenras know his arrival in Whitby would be postponed.
Total documents: Letters to Lucy, Letters to Mina, Message to Lucy
August 24
London Diary
Lucy begins keeping a diary in an effort to emulate Mina. She's feeling unwell just like she did in Whitby.
Total documents: Letters to Lucy, Letters to Mina, Message to Lucy, London Diary
August 29?
Post-Whitby Letter to Lucy
Some time between the 24th-30th, Lucy receives Mina's letter about her wedding. I'm placing it here tentatively as I don't think she would wait very long after getting it to respond, but in the past Mina sometimes implied she was expecting letters from Jonathan later in the day.
Total documents: Letters to Lucy, Letters to Mina, Message to Lucy, London Diary, Post-Whitby Letter to Lucy
August 30
Whitby Letter
Lucy writes a reply to Mina's letter about her wedding. Stoker seems to have messed up his timeline here, because this letter is postmarked Whitby and shows Lucy doing well, while her London diary begins 6 days before and is decidedly less cheerful. (If she were lying, the postmark would be difficult to explain; at the same time, moving this earlier in the narrative would require changing several other dates so I'm not going to try and do that here).

Lucy's Memorandum
Lucy has a harrowing, horror-filled night in which a wolf breaks into her window, her mother dies on her lap, her maids are drugged, and she is preyed upon by Dracula. She writes a memorandum detailing everything she can recall. (Technically, this was probably written during the early hours of the 18th. It appears that the wolf's escape from the zoo was discovered at midnight, and Lucy talks about being up late into the night. Still, since we have no hard confirmation either way, I'm sticking with the date we're given.) This was also the date of Lucy's final diary entry.

henlo, i'm bee 🐝 (22, she/her, gmt+) and i'm so excited to be here as a big fan of the boys and district x's setting !! today i bring oh sae to the table, an antihero and a criminal who punishes criminals. that said, his sense of what's right or wrong is ambiguous and his golden heart is kinda twisted. i have so many plans for him so i'd love to write with every single one of u, please like this post and i'll jump to ur inbox first! but i'll eventually reach out to everyone soon hehe (˶´ ˘ `˶) here's his profile (warning: wall of text) and i do have a plots page if u r interested! below is a quick summary of sae and some plot ideas, but i'm a girlie that loves brainstorming more sooo enjoy ur stay! it's midnight here so i'm off to bed now zzz
summary
26 y/o, manager at toast & coffee 24-hour diner and has a very tight bond with the restaurant's owner
born & raised in district x, middle-class family
lives with mom, dad's in jail. has a bad relationship with them 'cause they hid dad's criminal background from him and his dumbass believed them for 14 years
( tw: murder ) his power manifested when the criminals invaded their home and sae murdered them when he was 14. dad took the blame and went to the detention center
has always wanted to be the type of nice, kind-hearted marvel heroes but his hatred for criminals is too much that it turned him into a violent dude
still applied to the pinnacle institute at 20 'cause he wanted to fight criminals in daylight. was the last one on the acceptance list, tried so hard to pass his classes only to be expelled from attacking his bully
fed up with everything, decided to go on his own path and beat criminals in his own style. slowly, his moral compass became broken and he became what he hated the most: a criminal. but they pay him good, so why not?
tidbits:
in between jobs, he often patrols nearby areas to keep an eye on any criminal he sees. he's always in the mood to kick some ass because punishing them guys is a hobby now. that's how he's the "batman of red lane"
would blow up their heads for entertainment
the type to crack bad jokes with a straight face. he isn't cold like his demeanor, he actually enjoys chatting and being goofy but keeps his distance. he makes sure the wall he puts up is visible without the need to mention
because he's a criminal and sometimes a monster, peeps would assume that he's selfish and irresponsible. in fact, he's very committed to whatever he's tasked with and u can always rely on him.
"i got promoted for a reason, dummy."
sometimes would intentionally explode random stuff to scare his buddies off. he thinks it's funny
moved on from whatever complicated relationship he has with his parents but the wall is there. can't act like they didn't give him trust issues
is under nepa's radar and he's aware of that
gets away with committing crimes because whoever paid him to do the jobs usually takes care of the aftermath as part of the deal
enjoys helping people. some are shocked to see him helping a grandma cross the street
after being expelled from the institute, sae doesn't plan his future anymore. prefers to go with the flow. right now, he's just tryna see if he could make it until 30
plot ideas (some will be taken from my plots page!)
partner in crime, criminal buddies, or supporters in general because he can't make genuine friends with his way of living... he's lonely yall
or "friends" who are very wary of this friendship it's fun too like u are teasing him then stop midway because who knows what if he blows ur head off next
rivals/enemies! sae's easily anyone's rival LMAO. u could hate his moral compass / think he's fked up / hate antihero tropes or he probably did something bad to u or the people u know
someone who thinks he's just a trashy criminal tryna play the hero game
encounter with the batman of red lane while he's on the nobody-asked-him-to patrol
n.e.p.a agents who try to recruit/trick him because his power would be useful for their experiments. he's going to be very sus of every agent he meets let's see what will ur muse bring
frequents at toast & coffee. he's very nice to his customers so u can puke on the floor and he will clean it up for up
pinnacle institute classmates! friends, foes, study buddies, crushes, people who know the truth about his expel and actually feel bad for him
i'm also a sucker for neighbor plots 🤲
just some basic ideas to get you inspired! let's develop more together
#dx:intro#( — ooc. )#im actually very sleepy rn and ramble a lotttt#but im rlly excited to be here !!!!!

Intro post :3
Hey everybody! Here's the proper introduction post I never got around to doing since I resurrected my tumblr account:
I'm Tery (she/her) and I draw and make comics. I'm 24 (turning 25 TOM). I've been on this site since I was in high school and this place is pretty close to my heart. I'm so glad I've made the decision to return.
I like to either sketch whatever or make comics in the morning as it is the only time I'm free.
Some things I love right now (not an exhaustive list):
Ranma 1/2 (remake)
Dandadan
Moomins
Smiling Friends
Things I love still (also not an exhaustive list):
Adventure Time
Inuyasha
OG Ranma 1/2
Skins UK
Freshmeat
other british teen shows/movies
Community
FRIENDS
B99
BBT
the midnight gospel
studio ghibli
00s/90s teen movies
pinterest, tumblr, reddit
Right now, I'm getting into a lot of new things like:
movies (I've just started going through this list from letterboxd)
keeping a physical sketchbook
classic lit (i used to read a lot of philosophy and nonfic...and wattpad)
music (i used to either listen to podcasts, yt vids, white noise or piano, or same old songs over and over again)
making more playlists
GETTING MORE SOCIAL (irl and in socmed)
physical books and building my own library
chinese language
taiwan (going there next month)
blogging like it's y2k
Stuff I love to draw:
fan art
stills from movies
memes
human bodies
any colorful things
comics
i like to put speech bubbles on everything
~~~
I'm here to socialize and be part of the community. I want to make more friends and support other artists. I reblog excessively the things I love. I don't have organized tags yet, so my blog is a mishmash of my art, other artists' and misc.
I'm on substack and bluesky (at least where I'm active the most). The rest are on this link.
I'm also doing DREWSCAPE's diary comics and archive them in here. Also doing A Doodle A Day Challenge.
I'm not the most organized person so things will be chaotic in my blog, but I'm working on the tags now and I hope that will straighten things out a bit.
YAY, finally did my intro post! Nice to meet you! :3
