Here's something crazy... Still haven't watched Bridgerton s3, but seeing everyone fawn over the kanthony cameos, and then now having moved on to just fawning over iconic kanthony scenes apparently in response to it, has got me like sdkfa;sdfkadsk ABOUT TO REWATCH S2.....!!! AGAIN....!!!!

I saw the Dancing On My Own first dance scene on my timeline like 3x today and I'm foaming at the mouth, have been thinking about them all day LMAO

Watchlist tag game!! ✨

thank you to @dribs-and-drabbles for tagging me (ily💕💕). tbh im not watching a lot at the moment bc there doesn’t seem to be a lot airing, and even less that I care about, so im just gonna be honest

Currently watching

A boss and a babe: I’m like… ok with this. it’s nice and cute and easy to watch and I like it more than I did enchante. book and force are doing a great job with their characters and have great chemistry but I just don’t care about the plot. like it hasn’t grabbed me at all, and it’s one of those shows for me where it feels like nothing is ever really happening, or they’re repeating the same thing of theme or plot point over and over. so yeah… it fills my friday

Bed friend: similar to a boss and a babe, but I do like it a little more (and no, not just bc it’s spicier). net and james have such incredible chemistry and I am more invested in the story, but idk… it’s giving mame, and I can never get too invested in these stories that touch on heavier themes when it feels like they’re just doing it for plot reasons and not to actually explore that kind of trauma. which is not to say they’re doing it badly, it’s just not my vibe for a show to get invested in. so again, fills my saturday

Our dining table: watched the first 2 eps of this and am loving it so far as a pure comfort show. the premise is so lovely and im excited to see how the romance plays out within the story they’ve established. the little kid is so adorable and im a sucker for a found family troupe

Me, my husband and my husband’s boyfriend: don’t ask me why I started watching this show but I watched the first 2 eps last night and it’s interesting to say the least. I kind of have no idea how the story is gonna pan out but like… the possibility of an unconventional 3-way relationship is at least worth sticking around for, and I’m glad it’s exploring adults navigating relationships. plus… and don’t spoil… but why do I feel like the main chick has a thing with that other friend… just me?

The eighth sense: what more is there to say? this is literally the only thing I care about airing at the moment, and between the boys planet finale this week and this show ending the week after, im literally gonna have nothing else to live for. like my whole personality is these two things, and I’m gonna be empty afterwards. anyway, this show is a masterpiece on every level in every sense and literally occupies my mind 24/7. honestly the most obsessed I’ve been with something in a while and I need to shut up before I start rambling all over again

Looking forward to watching soon:

Our skyy 2: im excited to see all my favourite people again, esp bad buddy and msp and the eclipse, and I just want all the levels of cute and fluff and low stakes good times

jack o frost: idk why I didn’t watch this while it was airing but now I have time and nothing to watch, im just going through my back catalogue to fill time. and I’m excited to see what they do with this whole amnesia plot? plus i usually like japanese bls bc they have such nice vibes

To sir with love: in a similar vein to above, I didn’t watch this when it aired but I saw it pop up on my dash and people raving so might as well catch up and see what it’s all about. I am literally going in blind so…

Would like to watch but can’t for region locked/subscription reasons:

Blue sky complex: i had this in my plan to watch on mdl for some reason and didn’t know why I didn’t watch it until i realised I don’t think it was released on a streaming site like viki or gagaoolala??? maybe I’ll find it on a random site and see if it was any good, but again I’ll watch any japanese bls bc they’re usually sweet and inoffensive even when they aren’t incredible

Utsukushii kare eternal: i will be screaming internally until this is released internationally

tagging anyone that wants to do this that hasn’t 💖💖

[a/n]: this was totally inspired by @marvelouspeterparker​ post. i read it and it pulled me out of my writers block so thank u ! also this is so unnecessarily long but i have no excuse other than im a hoe for steve rogers?? 

*** gif isnt mine — i forgot creds srry :/

                             -ˋˏ ༻✿༺ ˎˊ-  

oh god this one is going to hUrt me

but can you just imagine when steve really gets to see you, not just in passing as he picks up his daughter

he nearly shits himself because how in the hell had he not noticed you before?

one any given day, he’s right on time to pick up shai

he’s always punctual

— until today

not only was he late, but he was an hour late and in his mess of mind he was fully convinced they’d never let him bring her to the school again

to make matters even worse his phone had died and his cable was nowhere to be found in his dying, old pick up truck

not to mention his sweet little angel, more than likely frightened out of her mind

— but he was so wrong

practically in a full sprint, he quickly made his way to shai’s classroom when he found her perfectly peaceful while she talked with her teacher

even though, she was facing him and could see him she paid him no mind. it didn’t faze her that her father was so late because you had stayed to keep her company

“well, it looks like he finally decided to show up.” shai spoke to you, loud enough so her father in the doorway could her. the edge in her tone pushing sassy all the way through

of course as soon as shai found her way in steve’s arms he profusely apologized and graciously thanked you for staying with her saying he would repay you for it

— and it definitely had nothing to do with how attracted steve was to you. nope. not at all

you dismissed his gesture, it was a delight to be with shai and you told him such but you had a feeling he wouldn’t let it go

— and he didn’t

the very next day, when he dropped shai off and handed you a dozen pastries he had made fresh this morning

the way you gushed over it, cheekbones high and happy over his kindness made steve’s heart swell

they were still warm and you just couldn’t believe he made these with his bare hands

it was easily the kindest gift anyone ever gave you and you told him that too before you could stop yourself

then he just started bringing you a pastry or two every other day, even if you’d refused them the next day he would bring double the amount he brought the day before

you stopped refusing him bc you already felt guilt since he wouldn’t let you pay for a single one

after two weeks, steve asked you out. you weren’t shocked he had, he had been buttering you up but no matter how charming you thought he was you couldn’t.

he was a parent of one of your students and you just couldn’t allow yourself to go there

it wasn’t necessarily against the rules, but it was frowned upon

accepting your rejection with grace and humility he grabbed shai before bidding you goodbye that day

you thought that was the end of it, until you saw him the following friday night at the bar you frequented at

— alone

you wanted to talk to him, the tequila in your system giving you an irresistible urge to but you were on a date with on of your friends’ coworkers

james buchanan barnes

he definitely was a smooth taker, those dazzling blue eyes sparkling like they knew something you didn’t

you really wanted to be interested, he was a loose shape of a man you’d dream about. maybe you could even pretend he was the one you really wanted

not when steve was sitting at the bar, alone.

but you left that thought behind and you convinced yourself you really were smitten with bucky

two weeks later, bucky and you had been on a few dates and he seemed to like you but you knew you had to end things.

whatever little fling you had going on

your heart got more of kick when steve used to bring you pastries in the morning before class than when bucky kissed you after your first date.

then he asked if you would come to his house, he was having a small get together and would love if you’d be there

— reluctantly, you went

bucky’s friends were nice, each one of them making you feel welcomed into their tight circle.

it turned into a better night than you thought and bucky seemed to be super touchy, guiding you onto his lap as you sat around the fire in his patio

natasha, bucky’s long friend since high school, had you all in fits on the stories from the past

everyone was too busy reeling to recognize his presence but you had the to be blind not to

there steve stood gaping at you’d like you were a ghost, certainly surprised to see you perched on bucky’s lap

yep you wanted to just crawl under a whole a stay there forever

“Glad to see you showed up, punk.” Bucky gesturing for him to make his way over to you, even when you pulled at the sleeve of his henley to stop him.

— of course your efforts to tame bucky in did nothing

he grabbed a cold one before making his way to the two of you

and dear god was it as awkward as ever

“Honey, this is my best friend, Steve.” Honey? He had never called you anything besides your name. By the way he pulled you even closer to him made you think there was something else entirely going on.

you certainly didn’t miss the way steve’s jaw clenched or as he held his right hand picking at the piece of bark rather aggressively

“Um, we actually know each other. Shai is in my class, actually.” Feeling rather suffocated by the weight of Bucky’s arms now that the man you felt too much for was here. “Really? I had no idea.”

steve’s eyes nearly bugged out of his head, infuriated. it wasn’t just that bucky knew you were shai’s teacher but he knew just how much steve liked you.

he didn’t shut up about you since he you with his daughter — something inside him changing in an instance

it wasn’t just that he thought you were the most wonderful woman he’d me — shai also raved over you

shai’s mother leaving a gaping whole in her heart she didn’t quite understand at the age of five was filled by you

you were kind to her, your patience never wearing thin as you gave her the attention she deserved

it may be your job but you enjoyed every moment with her and steve noticed

“Oh? She’s the one you would wake up an hour early for to make the pastries?” Bucky blurted out.

he woke up an early just to make those for you?

the way steve looked at the ground, grinding his fingertip against the label of his beer made you want to cry. his neck flaring pink at the embarrassment only made you wish you were in his arm instead

— even more than you already did

“You really should have seen the smile on his face when he came back from the school gushing over how much you liked what he had made.”

Bucky tightened his arm around your waist before saying. “Or when you reject him, I still can’t decide which is better.”

“That’s enough, James.” You tone harsh, before you ripped yourself away.

you couldn’t even look at steve, you don’t think your heart could handle it so you practically sprinted to your car

you needed to get the fuck out of here

until you reached for you keys, but they weren’t in your pocket

“Looking for these?” His hands looping through your keys giving it a twirl. “Star Wars fan?” Steve gesturing to you baby yoda key chain. “Maybe just a tad.”

“Thank you, Steve.” He tried to ignore the jump you ignited in his heart whenever you said his name.

handing your keys, he turned away from you, heading back into the house until you yanked him forward

the force so strong he though he was going to body slam into you before he pushing his weight against the car.....and you

“I’m sorry about, Bucky. I never would have gone out with him if I knew you two were friends.” You admitted while Steve just stood there looking embarrassed.

god did you always have to ruin everything

“I-I just, um, have these feelings for you. These very complicated feelings that make me want to throw every morally sound thought I have to the wind.”

“Which thought did you want to get rid of right now?” Stepping outside of his comfort zone, Steve grabbed your hands and just on instinct alone you cradled his face like it was the most natural act in the world. Like you had done it a thousand times.

“I mean, for one I’m telling myself I shouldn’t be this close to you.” Steve taking you by surprise as he tilted his head to the side, kissing the palm of your hand.

did he really just-

“What else, sweet girl?”

oh, you really were a goner

“I don’t know.” You spoke softly. Admitting to not only him but yourself — you couldn’t think when he was this close to you.

“Oh, but I think you do.” Steve diving right in as he latched his plump lips to your neck. Making whispers of his name drip off your tongue.

before you register what was happening steve had you pressed up against the car, rough hands gripping your thighs as your legs clinged to his slim waist

not to mention the ratio from his broad shoulders to his hips had your pussy drowning more

making you forget why you’d ever rejected him in the first place and he had hardly even touched you yet

then his lips met yours and you knew he had ruined you for anyone else. no one would ever compare to him and not anyone from your past did.

“Holy shit.” You whispered, completely in awe of what Steve was capable of doing to you in a matter of seconds. The proud smirk he wore in great contrast to what he felt back by the fire when he saw your body entangled with Bucky.

“If I ever see you sitting on my best friend’s lap again, I will go fucking crazy. Do you understand?” Steve eyes burning with envy.

“Yes, Daddy.”

brb gonna cry that i don’t have my very own steve rogers rip

[handdrawnfantasma]

thoughts on the last 3 episodes of series 12 of the space hobo show + summary thoughts of the entirety of s12 below the readmore. yes i know u’ve been getting my analysis and Feelings in the tags of my reblog spam for the past 48 hrs but i’m doing this for completionism’s sake and also bc i am putting off watching revolution of the daleks bc i know it is gonna inflict SO much psychic damage on me

so first off villa of diodati was REALLY good. miri i know u were saying that the person who made that one video raved abt this episode in stark contrast to the feelings expressed about the rest of s11 and s12 and if i was going to make a theory as to why i think it’s because out of all the episodes in Thirteen’s era, this is the one that feels most like an episode from either moffat or RTD’s era when you watch it? idk if it’s to do with how it’s shot or if it’s because it doesn’t have the Two Lines No Waiting situation that most other episodes in this era do but it definitely *feels* different to the rest of the era. but again, i stand by what i say that this does not make the other episodes in 13′s era bad, not by a long shot. definitely think this comes down to Preferences In Style Of Storytelling. THAT ASIDE, not only was it a FANTASTIC self-contained horror story, it did REALLY well at setting up the finale, bringing back the mention of the Lone Cyberman from where that plot thread was set up in the B plot of Fugitive of the Judoon, and was also just a REALLY good historical episode. the costumes were lush and the ghost story-esque atmosphere... loved it. also DEFINITELY think it was no coincidence that this episode brought in the Frankenstein theme with Mary Shelley being inspired to write the novel through her encounter with Ashad. like. considering this episode is the prelude to a finale where we find out that *the Doctor* is kind of a Frankenstein’s monster figure............ once again this era continues to give me EVERYTHING with the way it sets up themes and parallels and is constantly comparing and contrasting with every single storyline feeding into its thesis statement in one way or another. this era gives me So Much

and like this is without even going into the acting bc like AGAIN!! idk how people say the acting is bad in this era bc like. really Felt 13′s panic when she realised the cyberman was there and her desperation to keep the fam out of it. very very interesting to me how this era keeps emotional threads from the series that immediately preceded it running without actually explicitly saying that’s what it’s doing. its a very cool way of not making newbies to the series feel like they’re locked out. you don’t need to know WHY 13 is acting that way you just need to see her utter panic. love it. ALSO love how much this episode went more of a ways to completely tearing off the mask 13 has been trying so hard to keep on. the thematic thread running from “i’m fighting time itself and i’m gonna win” in waters of mars to “can’t i just lose for once” in heaven sent to “winning? is that what you think this is about?” in the doctor falls to “sometimes even i can’t win” in villa of diodati. idk where im going with this but i am Many Thoughts Head Full about it. Thirteen giving up the cyberium to Ashad because she lost her bottle at the last minute and didn’t dare call his bluff on his threat to destroy the timestream and cause a huge paradox that would end the world in 1816??? lord. i Felt that

and then!! boy!! ascension of the cybermen! i was SO stressed watching this episode!! at some point i kind of want to go into comparing and contrasting this episode with the doctor falls bc like......... one of the biggest parts of that episode was the idea that the cybermen were invading the farmstead level of the colony ship and that this was a big Thing and that the Doctor had no chance at defending it properly but i did not feel NEARLY so stressed or so invested in that plot thread as i did during ascension of the cybermen when the Fam and the last few scattered humans of the week were having to flee for their lives and hide and escape from an enemy that could do NOTHING but overwhelm them. the Fam choosing to stand by 13 at the end of villa diodati then followed by NONE of their preparations working. “i’ve been so reckless with you” even though 13 was FAR less reckless with the fam than 12 ever was with his companions, and the subsequent way that 13 was SO short and snapping left and right at everyone during the rest of this episode???? amazing. stunning. love this character work. also once again i’m in love so much with the Fam and how often they have to rely on each other and figure their way out of a problem without the Doctor in this era (and how often they manage to DO it!!!!! 13′s era is TRULY the era where companions get to shine on their own two feet and i ADORE it. positively shaped by their TARDIS experience into wiser and better versions of themselves. Graham and Yaz were so, SO good during this episode.) Ryan was ALSO really good, i like how him getting stuck with 13 meant that he’s the one out of the fam that got to see the mask FULLY off for the first time. i can only imagine what was going thru his head when he realised she was building a fucking bomb to throw at the cybermen to allow their escape. i also have SO many thoughts about how Ryan, the one of the Fam who has been shown to be most concerned with the idea of his own home planet coming to harm and him not being there to protect it, is the only one of the Fam who is there standing next to 13 when the boundary opens to reveal Gallifrey on the other side like.............. god. if any of the Fam were going to see that and suddenly Understand Everything it would be Ryan. this is SUCH strong writing

also i love how Ko Sharmus seemed like a huge shout out to Obi Wan Kenobi in the OG star wars trilogy. old man, near the last of his kind, a veteran of a war, living by himself in the space sticks. BIG Obi Wan vibes. also i can only imagine how it felt to be watching this thing live without the context for the Brendan segments that you get in the following episode. imagine watching this tense cyberman action and having it constantly intercut with this random story abt a foundling child in Ireland without knowing the context that this is the Master projecting his human au RPF fanfic of what he found in the Matrix directly into the Doctor’s mind

i’ve got most of my thoughts about the Timeless Children out of my system in my tag rambles so mercifully for all of you i am sparing you me once again going deranged abt thoschei on main but like..... gosh. gosh. that episode was a Lot. i’ve seen some Wild criticisms over it and now that i’ve seen all of s11 and s12 and the episode itself i gotta say i agree with exactly none of them??? the idea that this is some kind of Chosen One narrative? false. absolutely not. tecteun and the time lords got what they wanted out of this kid and then threw them away. the Doctor isn’t the Doctor because they’re the Timeless Child, they’re the Doctor because of the CHOICES they made after meeting Ian and Barbara, like............... this backstory has no bearing on the person they shaped themself into and that’s the POINT. these people really looked at the Master (who like. is a villain. i love them but they are very much a villain and we’re not supposed to agree with them) saying “you always acted like you were SPECIAL and you WERE” and they decided “huh yeah this sounds legit!”. like. idk how to explain to you that that is the Opposite of the point. this isn’t a chosen one narrative it’s a horror story of medical abuse and child exploitation LMAO. uh what other ice cold takes have i seen. OH yeah the idea that this somehow diminishes or disrespects the show’s history somehow like.............. for starters, Bold of you to assume that a show like Doctor Who has ANYTHING resembling canon, for another, this show has been introducing new concepts and shaking up canon throughout its whole history, you could argue that it’s entirely built on change. and tbh, hats off to Chibnall for having the guts to ACTUALLY shake up the show, unlike some showrunners i could think of but will not name. honestly in MANY ways the Timeless Child arc is actually a much better take on aspects of the Cartmel Master Plan and that’s been kicking around since the 80s. i’m not even going to touch the people i’ve seen saying that the plot would have worked better if it was the Master who was the Child. like. you seriously think being the blueprint of Time Lord society wouldn’t have made him utterly INSUFFERABLE?? if the point is that our choices are what makes us (“choosing who we want to be next”) then it makes zero narrative sense for the Master, who DOES put stock into the idea that it’s What You Are that matters and not What You Choose, to be the Child. imagine going through life being this unable to grasp a narrative. i think the only other ice cold take i saw was one that claimed this was a case of “backstory over character” and i’m like........ actually it’s really not because you can SEE how this knowledge completely shakes Thirteen and also, this is the series finale..... we’re obviously not going to see HOW MUCH it’s affected her and her sense of her own identity and how it’s going to shape her going forward until the next series. its only a case of backstory over character if it doesn’t affect the character LMAO... (like, again, i already know that Revolution and Flux revolve around this as their big emotional arc for 13, but just. imagine thinking that this is just never going to be visited again or that this isn’t going to somehow affect the protagonist somehow. i know you’re used to Certain Other Showrunners’ ways of doing things but COME ON)

ANYWAY I’M BORED OF TALKING ABOUT THAT but like. yeah. so much in the Timeless Children really Hit Different. i love how it recontextualises SO much of the show and its history, that’s really fun and it opens up SO many new narrative pathways to be explored. compare and contrast the Name of the Doctor myth arc which had precisely zero payoff lmao. and i really like, again, how it feels so much like every theme and narrative thread laid down by the era so far was leading to this reveal somehow. i like how it makes every time the Doctor has ever wiped someone’s memory SO much harsher in hindsight, i like how it brings in the idea of the Other from the Expanded Universe and divides that concept between Tecteun and the Doctor/the Timeless Child in a way that fits entirely with what we know of the Time Lords as a society, if i think too long about the questions this episode raises about identity and imperialism/colonialism i will actually lose my mind. and like, obviously i was kind of living for all the Master content in this episode and the approximately 10 different layers he was working on at any given time, this was excellent content for me, specifically. love how the big reveal in this episode and the way it’s been brewing for 2 series now feels like a big “okay, and NOW what happens? how does this affect the Doctor’s perception of who she is, truly??” like. sure she breaks herself out of the Matrix by literally giving herself a pep talk of “have you ever let who you’ve been before limit yourself”, and she puts on an excellent brave face for the master with her speech about how he hasn’t broken her and has actually given her a gift of herself, how she contains multitudes and she is SO much more than him, but like................. she’s pretty obviously deeply shaken over what he showed her and what she DOES about what she’s found out and how this is gonna affect this Doctor who realised who she was in her post-regeneration episode with a rallying cry of “we can honour who we’ve been and choose who we want to be next” but who has also been running AWAY from her past for so much of her tenure is....... yeah. god. EXCITING. i mean she’s stuck in space jail now as of the end of this episode so i am sure that is going to have a FANTASTIC effect on her mental state and her ability to deal with finding out part of the truth about herself

i also have about fifty different metas brewing in my head, including one about all the reasons that it makes sense and is more narratively satisfying/interesting that dhawan!master is after missy because i still can’t believe people argue that it’s the other way around, one about how Demons of the Punjab and The Timeless Children share some really similar beats, and one about how the difference between Moffat and Chibnall as showrunners is that Chibs isn’t scared of consequences and follow-through, but this post is already WAY too long so i will end by saying. Series 12 Good

tagged by: @hyyunjinn @lovelyyhyunjin (hyunjin stan squad comin in hot 😩)

tagging: @hyunjinh @christopher-bang​ @seungchanie @felixeslee @felixsfreckles @bangchant @chuuyo @hyunsungg @scene-stealers @straykids1 (im tryna tag new ppl rn pls lmk if u dont want me to LMAO also idk whos done it so far)

the mv drops in like 4 hours im wheezing 

the date you found stray kids: oct. 6

how: i saw articles of jyp’s upcoming boy group/survival show and me, a hoe for survival shows had to know what was going on,,,,,,,and then the hellevator mv showed up in my youtube notifications and i was curious abt it so i clicked it and all hell broke loose from there

first overall impression: pls,,,no hate in my inbox i beg im gonna b real honest n genuine when i say this LFMAO: i didnt like hellevator when i was first listening to it, i kinda liked the beginning part of seungmins voice but once it did like a 180 and went to changbins rap i was immediately turned off by it and i honestly thought “ugh so its another bad boy group why do so many groups try so hard to be edgy nowadays” and i wasnt exactly a fan of the vocals or hardcore rap but i kept listening to it hoping it would get better and it did and once i got to the chorus i started warming up to it AND THEN hyunjins rap is when i hit the fkcing FLOOR and then i ended up falling in love with the song soon after lMFAOSO :’’’’)))) 

tldr; i thought they were trying too hard to b edgy but then realized they r a bunch of cute dumplings that i wanna boop on the daily :///

individual impressions ––

chan: "his hair looks fried” - LISTEN OKAY in the mv his hair looked like a pile of hay NO OFFENSE AHDKAS LMFAO but when i heard that he was a trainee of 7 years i was like holy shit?? my respect for u?? is thru the roof??? to be really honest when i found out he was one of the aussie members and he was the leader of the group i felt kinda iffy because i didnt think he would be fit for that role but i was COMPLETELY wrong after i watched the first few clips of him and honestly i could just feel that he was leader material and w0w i have so much respect for him and also funny story when i first got into them i thought chan and chris were two different poeple i hate myself

woojin: "omfg his neck is thicc af” - LMFASODASDA god i hate myself for that being the first thing i thought of when i saw him AJSDKA OKAY BUT LIKE i forgot which video it was but i just saw him at an angle that made his neck look SUPER THICC and i was like this guy probably has gr9 vocals nd i was RIGHT LMAO i thought he was super cute when he was playing the guitar and singing n oml i love him

minho: “rapper?? singer?? which one is he” - i felt like i was super behind on getting to know him bc i didnt see him too too much in the hellevator mv?? BUT i srsly went heart eyes when i saw him in those cute af circle glasses when he was packing his bundles n not to mention id heard a lot of people rave about his bundles which i thought was SO FKING CUTE and idk when i looked at him he kinda had this like shy smile/look and i thought it was just so precious watching him ;;;

changbin: "why is he so angry in his rapping” - changbin stans pls dont come @ me,,,,,when i first listened to hellevator i started to not really like the song or him after hearing his part because i thought it sounded overly angry and aggressive but after listening to 3racha i honestly started to fall in love with his style more nd more and even know hes probably my fave in 3racha and my luv 4 him grew even more when i saw how cute he was when he smiled and tried to b dark

hyunjin: “IM SORRY BUT WHO ARE U I NEED TO KNOW” - this bih COPPED me of my sanity when i heard his voice in hellevator like it just snapped me awake and made me suddenly 10000% more interested bc i felt like his voice just sounded so idk how to put it but it was like super determined and strong willed sounding kinda like an “watch me prove you wrong” kind of tone WHICH ISNT A BAD THING IDEFK HOW TO EXPLAIN OMG like it just went SUPER well with the flow of the song and i just absolutely fell in love with his voice n then i saw his face and i was like how do u rap like that u have such a cute baby face wtf and then i fking scoured all the possible info on sk to find out who he was and that was when i became a fool™ for him :///

jisung: “wait hes rapping now i thought he was the vocal what” - SIMILAR TO CHANGBIN i wasnt like overly fond of him during the first few parts of hellevator because i thought his vocals were just eh and unnatural sounding until later i realized it was autotunes fault and again like changbin i thought his rap was overly aggressive but it wasnt until 3racha that i started to really really appreciate him and fall in love with his voice not to mention i was SNATCHED by his high note in the hellevator practice perf in front of jyp

felix: “he looks like he has tangerine hair– WHAT THE FK IS THAT VOICE” - o boi even before i started getting into them i’d heard a lot of people rave about how there was an aussie kid w freckles in this group and when i first heard him in hellevator i was definitely impressed with his flow/voice in the song ASKDA and then after that all the moments of him memeing on everything and also his stage charisma just mde me go HEAD OVER HEELS FOR HIM AKSDH he was the first threat to my bias list bc he jus felt like so RELATABLE LMAO and also for the longest time i thought he was the maknae LOOLL

seungmin: “this voice is already a 10″ - goodness where do i start w kim fking seungmin,,,the moment i saw his face i just went heart eyes because he looked like a living marshmallow and his voice?? im dead. seungmins voice has just this warm sounding tone that makes him so easy and pleasing to listen to like IDK WHAT IT IS but i thought the way he sang was just so cute and genuine that i couldnt help but swoon over him ;;;;;; he was and currently still is threatening hyunjins spot on my bias list ASJKDKJAK i actually had a bias crisis around the time that sk went on the busking mission because i would watch hyunjin fancams,,,,,,,,but only pay attention to seungmin,,,,,,,,,,,,,i literally replayed seungmins part in school life like 600 times,,,aHEM anyways 

jeongin: “his eyes are so pointy” - the first thing that attracted me to him were his eyes bc they were just super unique looking?? idk im whack lmao but after watching the episode clips i was just WHIPPED for him bc he looked so soft n smol ;;; AND the part that Snatched me the hardest was when he was singing trot in the practice room and i startedTEARING UP because he was so cute and oh my god i love him

we dead binches after the mv drops good luck my dudes 😔✊

TAGGED BY: ooo she stealin ¬.¬ TAGGING: if you think erwin deserved better and/or you’ve eaten some form of potato in the last week ~

* GETTING  TO  KNOW  THE  MUN :

NAME :   Blaire NICKNAME : A bunch ; most frequent is actually a mispronunciation of my name used by my family; literally ‘Blah’ ; another embarrassing one is Bloom which i use as my pen-name - story behind this is so lame omg (two words : winx club) FACECLAIM :  don’t use one ~ (should i?)  rn im feeling mymate jake ^^^ PRONOUNS :   she / her HEIGHT :   153cm / 5′ -.- BIRTHDAY :    9th September  AESTHETIC : massive grey & jewel toned hoodies , weak autumn sun , vans slip-ons , snapbacks , anklets , buttered toast , blanket fortresses , dawn skies , double rainbows , cocoa butter , magpies , dried lavender , small , retro backpacks , dead winter flowers , 24hour chippies , moleskins , grid paper , smoking wood , half-shoes , orange lipsyls , vintage colour palettes , japanese prints , dog-eared victorian classics , red noses & fingers , off the shoulder bombers ~ LAST  SONG  YOU  LISTENED  TO :   Takeda Lullaby (lool I was searching for a song for Mrs A’s blog) FAVORITE  MUSE (S)  YOU’VE  WRITTEN : Only just started writing Mrs Ackerman & naturally i’ve invested far , far more into Nina so it kinda goes without saying my daughter takes the cake for this one (although im hella looking forward to developing Kaori too ~)

* GETTING  TO  KNOW  THE  ACCOUNT :

WHAT  INSPIRED  YOU  TO  TAKE  ON  THIS  MUSE :  Heard of snk years ago when my little sister was raving about it & i was like meh another over-hyped anime hahahaHA was i wrong i mean like, the hype was WELL worth it so I stuck my toe in & ended up drowning (idk if i regret it yet lol) ANYHOO, back when shit was simple & the only thing they had to worry about in snk was killing the titans , it was still established that the last surviving humans were solely made up of those within the walls who were , to my extreme confusion , 100% white caucasian (save for Mikasa & her mum) & i was just like yooo I knowyoufuckinlyin bc aint no way every single black/brown person just got devoured (like come on titans don’t see colour lool) & truthfully , that was the main reason I didn’t get into snk at the beginning (ik im a salty bitch k) SO YEAH that was half of my reason for creating Nina & raising the roof (she says) with a little diversity ygm. but the MAIN reason was bc i was hella HELLA into the lore & the origin of the titans (which was what eventually sucked me back in- that & anime crack x<) & i got so into it that i started writing a fic in an as spin-offy-ish way as possible i.e. where there is virtually no diversion from the canon plotline ~ & I needed a single person who’d seen it through from the pseudo-beginning (or who was tied to it in some way) for the reader to follow on a more personal level. then THAT blew hella out of proportion & I ended up planning her  journey far into and beyond the marley arc & forging relationships I never thought she’d have. I’ve always loved reading you guys’ writing & I found myself wanting to see , more realistically , how canon characters would react to Nina - when I say realistically, I mean without my control or influence bc in the fic , I’m basically  directing how interactions go. Also she’s my baby & I love her

WHAT  ARE  YOUR  FAVORITE  ASPECTS  OF  YOUR  CURRENT  MUSE :  I love her capacity to just get on with shit & idk if this is necessarily a good thing but nina has this ‘i dont give a damn’ attitude ingrained into her being, in a way that is quite liberating for her personally. After living through certain experiences , she has thrown all protocol , all decorum or just anything that ‘should be done’ to the dogs wind be it in the way she speaks , the stuff she does , they way she engages with people. BUT this doesn’t take away from the fact that she knows & recognises what things like duty & loyalty are , their importance & who she owes these to. I love her flippancy , her complete intolerance of bullshit , how she doesn’t wait for explanations when she sees real wrong/ something that bothers her which again isn’t always the wisest choice but still. I love her indisputable drive despite everything about her screaming the opposite , how when she decides something is going to be done , she’ll do it or die trying - I could go on forever honestly so I’m gonna save this for another post/ character study ~

WHAT’S  YOUR  BIGGEST  INSPIRATION  WHEN  IT  COMES  TO  WRITING :  Oh my , so many things ; a LOT of inspo is from everyday life & people I meet i.e. the phrases they use , the way they strike me ; I’m also very drawn to poets like armitage & pullman’s stuff as well but it really isn’t apparent at all in my writing. I LOVE dickens but again that’s not bait either um yh that’s thing with me with other people’s writing - i can love it to bits but I don’t always actively draw inspo from it (not any that you can see anyway) but honestly i’m just a potato who scribbles random bs that i sometimes like from my head :D

FAVORITE  TYPES  OF  THREADS :  I love dark/gallows humour or even just good old-fashioned comedy (i like to laugh ok) , give me angst or give me death , ‘rough’ fluff i.e. where one person really doesn’t want to fluff but can’t help themselves or where they show affection in a way that wouldn't really be seen as affectionate usually , human psyche discussions are also my shit ~ I really can’t think of anything I DONT like tbh, so

BIGGEST  STRUGGLE  IN  REGARDS  TO  YOUR  CURRENT  MUSE :  Organising her thoughts ; i find this difficult because Nina’s thought process i.e. when she’s carrying out a specific task, is very focused & kinda 1D ; at the same time when she’s ‘ at rest ‘ (look what physics has done to me) she will have a million other things racing through her head whilst having the situation at hand at the forefront & even then those ‘other thoughts’ are usually all to do with a certain blueprint she’s drawing up mentally or a thorough once over of the person before her/ her surroundings ; so although Nina appears to be a very distracted individual she really isn’t unless she finds a concrete plan for some machine & is in the process of building it/ is under stress). I find this very incompatible with my own thought process which is all over the fucking place & I dissociate/depersonalise a lot whereas Nina (ATM) has a very strong sense of self idk it’s something I’m working on ; I also have loads of qualms about whether Nina is a good character i.e. whether she’s interesting or original enough & even though this is dumb, whether people like her lol :’)
