JIMIN MENTION. Riverdale characters as BTS members
unfortunately i did workshop this with the army gc and i think i have a proposal. it doesn't totally work because of gender dynamics and the way the universes of corporate-competitive art performance and riverdale aren't really quite aligned, but i think i got somewhere.
RIVERDALE MAINS AS BTS MEMBERS:
jughead = rm / kim namjoon. iconoclast. the lyricist-narrator of the whole deal. the link to the big corporate-bureaucratic metaplot in the sky. a typewriter kind of guy. there are so so so many of him and sometimes they interact. queerbait-complicit and yet sidestepping it.
reggie = jin / kim seokjin. the negotiator. the big-city boyfriend from the hallmark movie. the nation's son-in-law but DID flirt with your grandmother and your dad at the function. fed that mean old man from his bare hand. schemes and scams, less opportunistically than as a vocational calling. second place to karl marx and knows it.
betty = suga / min yoongi. she's resisting her idol image with her gratuitously-edgy secondary persona but she's still your poor little meow meow, your baby. she's alert! she's fractured! her amygdala is working sooo hard. her shadow grows and grows and she's avoiding it she's looking at it she's avoiding it she's looking. don't say tangerine.
veronica = j-hope / jung hoseok. idk it's about perfectionism. it's about how CRYING 👏 DOES 👏 NOT 👏 FIT 👏 WITH 👏 HER 👏 LIFE'S 👏 VIBE. it's about lean-in girlbossism. it's about success not creating psychological safety (but she wants more anyway bc what else is she here to do). she's nice but she's ruthless but she loves you!! and on several tragic levels iykyk: she da bus driver all of a sudden.
kevin = jimin. compulsive joiner. compulsive people-pleaser. compulsive flirt. compulsive. mapplethorpe fanboy. gender outlaw. a smoke-show, now. most likely to charm a late night talk show host. queerbaiter of the cruising-coded-crowd-scene variety. most likely to put it all on the line for a little cabaret ♥
cheryl = v / kim taehyung. questionable art appreciator. questionable painter. questionable self portrait accumulator. high-aesthetic curator of Scenes and Situations. president of gay fanservice (self-appointed). glamorous alien OR reclusive little freak. if the high-aesthetic, melodramatic-literary closet case lament fits.
archie = jungkook. golden boy all-rounder. beefcake-on-display. designated himbo. Wants To Help. will NOT contribute to a conversation so don't even try. gives kind of a sincere wounded baby animal quality at times. queerbait via lore-relevant chime card sponcon (this isn't jarchie but it does make you ask yourself "is charlie puth sort of jugheadcore, if jughead sucked (derogatory) instead of sucking (complimentary)?")
#riverdale#bts#bangtan#jeon jungkook#kim taehyung#veronica lodge#min yoongi#archie andrews#park jimin#kim seokjin#betty cooper#jughead jones#kevin keller#jung hoseok#kim namjoon#cheryl blossom#reggie mantle#suga would EAT those ultimate wildcard bars. 'the nightmare from next door' and then one of his little ad lib aggressive 'HUH's after it#gc coined 'namjug' and i really hate that. so thanks anon. you did this to me. namjug#i ruined most of my bts ships i mean 'subunits' (i mean ships) with this btw (rpf is fine if you're silly with it btw. don't @ me)#so please don't take this as a comment on dynamics either on riverdale OR within the extended bts personas / masks / characters universe#the mapping that works the WORST here i think is jin:reggie. jin makes such a point of not taking anything too seriously#he's a little bit of a marilyn about it all. he plays.#and that makes him fundamentally just soooo incompatible with riverdale. where every character takes it SO seriously#just constant ego threat#the least riverdale thing about BTS is that they all kind of pretend not to have families within their celebrity personas#and riverdale is soooo so so very much about parents and parent<>child relationships#riverdale also can't really accommodate aegyo. hence my leaning into grim takes on bts members who are often quite cutesy#like jimin. but i do think the kevin alignment works really well for him outside of that. if you understand we're being gothic#if there's one must-watch video linkout in this post it's probably v singularity. beautiful riff on confessions of a mask. art. camp!

Between dnp who is the lazy gay and who is the activity gay?
great question anon. i will second this post from @yonpote in that dan would love to do nothing but doesnt do anything half-way so if they're doing it they're doing it and phil would have eyes bigger than his stomach and would want to quit partway through
however i think they flip-flop too, because dan absolutely wants the Perfect Pictures and phil would be like can we sleep
and maybe i'm projecting but both of them seem to enjoy maximizing a holiday so i guarantee they do what i call 'theme park hard' wherein if they're going then it is rope drop to fireworks, always going to a ride or waiting in line for one, do as many rides as possible, what do you mean you have to pee no you don't. but they'd absolutely complain about it the whole time and after but feel very accomplished.
#w/ the new system theyd just buy fastpasses as well but thats not something universally included in theme parking hard#thank u for asking anon and shoutout rudy for the excellent points in which i refer to#dan would also somehow sneak prime photo taking into the itinerary because he needs it#yes i theme park hard. some people find it incredibly stressful and im like mm but youre paying so much to be there and do nothing so#no thanks actually. i put on *miles* at theme parks and absolutely max-min the experience. you gotta try it once its so fun#literally running between rides at 7 am. truly nothing like it#dnp#c.text#dan and phil#answered

South Park AU
Hello, hello, I'm back again with a bit more infodumping. I'm honestly struggling with the proper name of this AU but let's get to that later! If you're here from the one half rambling post, well, you're in luck because I explain things better here so!
The idea is loosely inspired by TFBW but it's more of its own thing since I never got into the major AU's when I was into the series a while back. Now, as mentioned before - the idea itself is a bit more darker and angsty though here's how everything went down!
The kids are now older, and will be in high school for most of the AU, but the whole thing is... when they were about to enter their freshman year, a strange cosmic event hit South Park and well, it caused unexpected changes. As a bit of additional background, I always imagined the former elementary students were pretty much just roleplaying when they adopted their superhero personas which meant no real powers (except for Mysterion-); that is until something strikes the town and all of a sudden, they have powers beyond their imagination.
Reassuming their old identities, South Park is thrown into chaos and of course, not everyone knows the others are; none of them are truly open to harming each other, let alone kill. Not even Cartman, but of course, word travels outside of the town and things get a little... complicated.
I'm going to purposely leave that vague for now, but let's get to the fun bits... which means read below for more juicy tidbits!
How the Teams Formed
Everything is technically owed to Mysterion. He had donned the costume one night and well, his fame skyrocketed after he singlehandedly dealt with a gang attempting to cause trouble. Mysterion had never been one to work alone, though of course, this ultimately changed... and he founded the first team of superheroes. They have each other's backs for the most part, but due to Mysterion's sheer stubbornness, sometimes he handled crime on his own.
His actions went noticed by other former members of the original teams, and it led to smaller teams forming; on occasion, the teams found themselves capable of working together, but as one would expect - sometimes they bickered and made working together on missions a whole lot harder.
In a way, Mysterion was the reason they took on the role again but controlling their powers wasn't as easy as it seemed...
Names & Powers
Since South Park is South Park, I took it upon myself to alter things around with some of the names, and even when it came to powers so, I decided why not share my current thoughts and ideas. These aren't complete though! They will be updated eventually, I promise but that will likely be with a different post.
I'm going to start from Cartman because why not-
Raccoon Man: Instead of answering to his original name, Cartman- that is to say, a very normal vigilante now goes by Raccoon Man. His powers consist of enhanced sight (more so at night), claws (which I'll explain later!), as well as others. I know this has been done before, but I can see him being a literal raccoon hybrid. He has an excellent sense of hearing, and can fight in hand-to-hand combat, more specifically with punches.
Static Point: The former "Toolshed", now known as Static Point. Despite his original abilities, Static Point's powers manifested as control over lightning and having the ability to manipulate any tool. His design is still being developed, though I can imagine he has some form of gauntlets which allow him to charge the lightning a lot better. Yes I know the lightning comes from "Wonder Tweek" but shhh.
The Harpy: Better known as "Harpy" (and the former "Human Kite"), the Harpy's a member of Mysterion's team - much like Static Point - though his abilities a little more... different. As a result of the accident, Harpy became a mutant/hybrid of sorts; he has wings and a tail, resembling a sort of harpy-esque figure. There's a comic on TikTok which I love, but there's going to be differences from that. I think Harpy would have talons and he needs tufted ears or something. Because yes
Mysterion: Saving the best for last because yes. Mysterion's powers are rooted in two different things: for one thing, he has the ability to control shadows (something akin to Nico from Percy Jackson but a bit different-), and of course, his immortality. He does have other abilities, but they're more mundane (hand-to-hand combat, parkour)
The other characters are still being developed and since this is an AU, and the circumstances are a bit different, well, I'm trying to decide quite a bit! I'm going to make a separate post for the Mystechaos idea, so stay tuned for that!
Lowkey down for roleplaying either of them so please, if you're interested, shoot me a message! I want to develop them and it can be a lot of fun to do it via roleplay - I main Kenny!

Jurassic park is literally so perfect. Only two things I would change:
Samuel L. Jackson’s character (Ray Arnold) is alive and well
The rich grandpa is eaten by the t. rex
#jurassic park#rambles from the ether#john hammond#ray arnold#lol but yeah Hammond…#I’m sorry but I Do Not like this dude#he learns nothing#almost got his grandkids killed#manipulates Ian into returning to the island in the second movie if I remember right#sorry if this is mean but like. he should have been eaten by a T. rex lol#pay the price for having no regard for human life#I just think it would be narratively juicy#creator killed by his creation#except he’s not actually the creator but the point still stands#as for Ray Arnold. he lives bc he never should have been killed off in the first place#this is my alternate universe and I can do what I want

#tag talk#storytime sexcapades#sadness is canceled. met a really cute cool dude visiting town for work and stayed up all night talking and uhhh. other things.#I really am so ready to move. I wanna be in a college town with community music groups and a larger visible queer population ugh.#anyway. the more I experiment the more I realize I'm actually definitely trans and I would like certain bits lopped off 😕#I will literally never shut up about the connection between sex and gender. I'm sure there's some shortsightedness to it#because I'm speaking largely from my own experience with it. so obviously there's an implicit perspective bias there#but like. turns out when you're dissociated from your body it can be hard to enjoy certain body activities.#I'm mostly over showers now. it's way easier to see myself the way I want to be. still things I want fixed. but things are livable.#but yeh. sex is difficult when you're at war with your skin.#also. why do people do poppers. your head spin for a minute and you smell organic solvent for a while. my head spins all the time#like. “it's just like sniffing glue” bro why do people sniff glue I don't get that either“.#“it's like being drunk for a short time” I don't get why people do that either.#throwback to that time someone said I needed to not become an alcoholic and I just pointed to my four month old vodka bottle in the fridge.#idk. there's a use for it. alcohol is a CNS depressant and I love it for that. but only sometimes is that necessary.#anyway. I'm curious to try other substances but I fully expect to walk away going “eh. I don't get what the deal is with that”.#but we keep doing new things. for science. to learn about the world. and to become a more understanding person. understanding is everything#anyway. cool people do exist. I literally said that thing about not meeting people I like and the universe decided to be a joker about it#did I already say that we stayed up all night? sitting on the trunk of you car watching the stars on a warm desert night is a good vibe.#I like getting out of the city and finding a patch of desert to park in and just bathe in the night air. and it's better with company#the end. bye. I have an age of empires game to finish cause I paused it to go meet up with him. and now I have to finish it#ALSO. yeah I know.. vodka in the fridge. I've started putting it in the freezer just cause there's not as much room in the fridge

candace flynn is THE most teenage girl character of all time. she is at level 100 anxiety 24/7. she shows her love for her brothers by trying to get them in trouble constantly. her neck is as long as her forearm. she features on a blues album after having an allergic reaction. she has a shrine to her boyfriend in her room. she can't live without her phone. she has a panic room in the basement. she plays 20 instruments that all start with the letter B. she read all of sherlock holmes in one night. she's seen their platypus running around as a secret agent more than once, assumed she was hallucinating each time, and moved on with her life while telling no one. she likes wrestling video games. she was rutabaga princess. she has a billion people to email memes to but when she's trying to think of friends she can only think of four people and one of them is her mom. most animals hate her except monkeys. she invented grilled cheese flavored ice cream. she pretended to be irish for a week. she's autistically obsessed with her universe's version of barney. she writes marvel fanfiction. she does parkour. there's an entire archive of her voice actress screaming just in case her voice ever gave out while recording. she sees her brothers build time machines and rollercoasters every day but doesn't believe in santa. when she starts scheming the wicked witch of the west theme starts playing in the background. she was elected queen of mars. she won a "mayor for the day" essay competition. there's a random person in town who's been avoiding her to the point she doesn't know he exists. she learned how to parallel park by driving a monster truck. she thinks the plural of moose is "meese." she tracks her mom with a GPS. she doesn't know her little brother's full name. she's scared of heights, spiders, and the number seven. when her boyfriend told her he'd call "soon" she started doing complex math to try and figure out when exactly that would be. her first thought upon seeing her royal doppelganger was to go to the laundromat and fill all the dryers with cheese. she earned 50 not-girl-scout patches in one day through sheer determination. she can run fast enough to catch up to moving cars. she can sense when ground is broken in the backyard and when people are judging her. one time she got her face caught in the sink. her brothers carved her into mount rushmore. every now and again a magical zebra appears, calls her kevin, and then disappears again. she killed 99% of an alien invasion with a t-shirt cannon. in an alternate universe she's leading a regime-destroying resistance at the age of 15. she's being accidentally gaslit every day of her life.

when my family went to orlando in april to visit universal studios and disney world we became very familiar with universal studios’ “family rooms”, which were small rooms that could be accessed from both the loading and unloading areas of rides for those who dont want to go on the ride and might not want to be left alone in a busy theme park in the orlando heat for who knows how long, because my sister quickly learned she was not a fan of both thrill rides/rollercoasters and rides that heavily used screens. if you’ve ever been to universal studios, you probably understand that 90% of the rides there either are a thrill ride or heavily rely on screens (which is true for most theme parks, but especially universal from what i’ve heard), so she ended up skipping most rides the rest of my family went on.
these family rooms were great, and from what my sister has told me she enjoyed them because they were quiet, air conditioned, and she could just be on her phone alone. most of these family rooms were secluded with maybe one window along the queue, with the exception of velocicoaster which was completely off the queue line and had her separate from us earlier than the rest of the rides. it was also a win for the rest of us, because we could just hand off our bags to her when we went on rides without lockers and didn’t have to worry about carrying them.
well, what is the point of this post? why did i want to reminisce on a part of my vacation i didn’t ever even experience for myself? well, one of these family rooms was really funny to me because it was completely unlike the other family rooms i had seen. this family room was the family room for the men in black dark target shooter ride, which is could only be described as baby’s first panopticon experience. my sister was first willing, but reluctant, to go on the ride but then decided abruptly to not participate because i think the preshow with the live actor who takes you from the outdoor queue to the indoor queue irked her a bit. so when we got to the point in the queue where the employee (i dont remember if universal has a goofy ass name for their park employees but you understand what i mean) asked how many people were in our party, she said she didnt want to ride and wanted to step aside. this employee then had her coworker escort her to the family room, which was a room with two glass walls that directly overlooked the loading area and the upper area of the indoor queue. the room was completely white aside from that, with some cute art of aliens on the back wall.
i think my dad took a picture of her because it just looked so goofy. it was my sister just sitting there in a white room alone, staring at us in the queue. when me and my mom went to go get her (i didn’t realize my other sister and dad had gone out the normal exit. and i wanted to look at the aforementioned alien art on the wall because i love aliens), we had to go up an elevator that not many people get to go up because its pretty much only there for those exiting the ride to get those in the family room and leave. so that was cool.
#if this isnt a true yap session then i dont know what is#that ride is a lot of fun btw definitely my favorite at the whole park#and thats saying a lot because velocicoaster is also at universal#i absolutely destroyed everyone in the ride vehicle with me i got like 4x points than what everyone else got#maybe playing rhythm games does improve hand eye coordination#anyway. its like midnight and im tired and i am only writing this because my brain is moving a million miles a second#and i just needed to type something out. so why not make a multi paragraph post about universal studios family rooms lmao#blurry speaks
