My entry for #SaeranMochiWeddingDTIYS on IG by 4.seasons.of.mine! 💖

I could not for the life of me decide which Saeran to draw so naturally I drew 3 versions with GE, SE and VAE 😭 Can you spot the subtle differences between them, even in their expressions? 👀

I chose pink and hot pink peonies because they're a popular wedding flower and symbolize good luck, prosperity, deep appreciation and passion, and carnations (that I now realise are way too big but it's fine, they can bloom extra for a special day this time) for love and devotion! And some roses naturally, and of course lilies of the valley everywhere because it's him, can't be a Saeran wedding piece without lilies of the valley symbolizing return of happiness :3

wip re-introduction — the Seafoam trilogy by Steph Megary

started — Sept. 2021 | genre — high fantasy | pov — single, first | status — 2nd draft | currently writing — The Unforgiving Sea, Part IV: Undertow | themes — grief, coming of rage, religious oppression, mother/daughter relationship(s), revenge, and lesbians | links — excerpts, artwork

blurb | Thala Galanis is coming of age and unmarried with absolutely no intention of remedying that. Which, in Grea, means that you’re a spinster and fit for nothing else but a life of silent service as a Stoli in Katania—the Haven of the Gods. When tragedy strikes her family with the untimely death of her father, she decides that there is no other choice for her but to resign herself to becoming a Stoli. Once she arrives in the capitol, however, she finds that what’s expected of the Stoli is darker than she ever dreamed it would be.

In a desperate attempt to escape, she takes matters into her own hands, only to stain them with blood. A stain that will never wash off the further along she travels down the path to vengeance.

Because what happened to her should never happen to anyone else.

And, if she gets her way, it never will.

excerpt | Blood really is the most beautiful shade of red, isn't it?

The metallic tang of it lingered in the air and on my tongue. I raised my hand to the dying sun, mesmerized by the carmine stain coating my fingers and dripping down my arm. It billowed in the sea around me, bright and sanguine and breathtaking.

I was practically bathing in it.

Sunlight glistened on my soaked hand, the blood almost sparkling in the last vestiges of day, and for the first time in a long time, I smiled.

Really, truly smiled.

from The Silent Shore, the first book of the Seafoam trilogy

↳ Part I — Tremor | Ch4 — Laid to Rest [excerpt below] [Part II] [Part III]

Steep stone steps lead down into a circular room, a half-ringed platform embracing a pool of water that let out into the sea. Columns protruded from the water, barnacles clinging to them. The steps continued into the water, though how far down they went, I couldn’t tell. Our Droma was waiting for us on the steps, the water up to his knees. He beckoned for us to join him, and I started down the steps after Ma did. The other mourners and the Stoli filed onto the platform, fanning around us or staying on the stairs so that it was only us and the Droma in the water.  He took my hand, then Ma’s, and guided us down to the same step he was on.  “It is only fitting that this is where we say our farewells to Arteras, given that the sea was his final resting place.” My throat started to burn when tears pricked my eyes, the edges of my vision going watery. “Since the unfortunate news of his passing reached me, I have been gathering accounts of his life. Of how he was a loving father, a devoted husband, a loyal friend, a dedicated sailor, and above all else, a devout man. He will be sorely missed by us all in Psari, though his memory will live on in us who knew him best. Grief will turn to fondness someday. Sooner than you might think.”  He took his hand back from mine and Ma’s and held his hand out to someone on the platform. One of the Stoli. She came forward, kneeling by the pool and offering a glass orb to the Droma. An unlit candle sat inside, the hardened pool of wax gripping the curved edges. He handed it to Ma, then turned to reach around me to take a thin, lighted stick from a Stoli on my side of the platform.  He gestured for us to hold the orb, so Ma held it out before him and I reached out to hold the other side.  “This flame,” he said as he poked the flaming end of the stick into the orb. “It is an offering to the gods, to beg them to allow Arteras safe passage through their realm. It is a sign that he was loved, here. That he will be remembered fondly by those he left behind. In this life, however, it is time to say goodbye.”  He nodded, and I peered around him, waiting for Ma to release the orb before I did. It bobbed away, the waves carrying them out past the columns and amidst the craggy rocks that lined our coast. It would have watched it longer, to make sure that it made it into the open sea, but the Droma had already turned around, offering an arm to us both, and guided us back up to the platform.

Mystic Messenger Propaganda I am NOT falling for in 2025

Yoosung is in love with Rika

Yoosung's anger towards Jihyun/V is unjustified

Jihyun is innocent and everything he did is okay because he is a victim of abuse

Jaehee being anything but lesbian

Jaehee's route does not have any romantic subtext

Jaehee is in love with Zen and is trying to take him away from MC in his route

Dom daddy sex god Jumin Han

Narcissist Zen Ryu (none of you know the actual definition of a narcissist)

Seven route being the only "true route"

V route AE ESPECIALLY Judge Ending

Everything Saeran does is Rika's fault and he has no agency of his own

Saeran Choi being dateable in some way

Extended postal abbreviations for North America and some adjacent states and territories

I recently came into possession of a list of postal abbreviations used by the North American Postal Union in the year 2064 for delivering physical mail in the countries and territories it is responsible for. This system takes advantage of the fact that there is no overlap between American and Canadian postal abbreviations, and extends that list with several new additions, principally covering Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean, and various dependent territories--both of other countries, whose territories happen to lie in North America, and of North American states, who happen to have possessions elsewhere.

Pov: you're the 𓇢𓆸 Maknae in ENHYPEN

Genre: Fluff, crack

Paring: Enha X m!reader

Pov: you're the Maknae, and a foreigner!

{ᡣ𐭩-🐹} Despite being the oldest in the group, he has to look over and take care of his members, the person who can vent and talk about feelings, ask for opinions etc. since you're the make, he'd likely take good care of you very well, he always asks you to play game with him whenever you're bored. Always use formal words to communicate with you because you're a foreigner in the group and know less Korean than ni-ki. When going out for dinner together, he is willing to treat you most of the time. He loves giving you a buddy hug and sometimes even kisses you on your hand too when he can't resist you. His nickname for you would be "sweetheart" in Korean "ae-in 애인". "Aein-ha~, wanna play LOL?"

{ᡣ𐭩-🐈‍⬛} The second oldest hyung in the group, like a mother of 7 kids, definitely he'd take good care of you but extra care ×2 since you're the youngest. Would give you a free Korean lesson when you asked him to, and even tell you about everything you need to know basically. Love to spoil you with gifts and free food, and even more, than you could imagine. Always cook your favorite meal for you when you're back from an intense schedule or extra class. "Come and take a sit, M/n, I made you your favorite food!"

{ᡣ𐭩-🦮} As the third hyung, and as a sports person, he always takes you to play football with him, even when you're not good at sports that much. Take you shopping at an American clothes store, buy you

perfume and always bring snacks for you when he's back from grocery shopping or somewhere. At free time, or during a break from practice he'd cling to you and give you back a hug, snuggle his face buried in your neck. When communicating he's often speaks in English so that both of you, can talk more comfortably. "Bud Bud! I brought you some perfume, hope you like it yoi"

{ᡣ𐭩-🐧} Fourth hyung here, the first encounter between him and you was awkward and felt so tight but after you were added to the group and got to know each other better he's slowly getting comfortable with you and showing his true self, the loudest introvert just for you maybe~ he likes to call you when you have no schedule and stay at the dorm. He likes to tell you everything about his day, and mostly vent his feelings to you. His phone is probably full of your ugly pics already since he loves taking members in their awkward poses. "Your face... Looks like a doll"

{ᡣ𐭩-🦊} The fifth hyung, before they were seven he's still in a maknae line but after your presence here, he suddenly became a member of hyung line. Again, he like spoiled you with beautiful gifts. He's your bestie member who knows what's best for you or not. Always nagging you to take care of your skin, to keep moisture whenever you're going out or have a film schedule. Gave you free lip-gloss whenever he felt like it because the boy had too many to use. Late-night tteokbeoki buddies would suit you and him the best. "Yaaa, eat this spicy rice cake M/N it's delicious oh don't forget to add kimchi too, best combo""

{ᡣ𐭩-🐈} Being in a maknae line and a leader, he has to look and take care of every member, especially you. When the group comeback and does the promotion, he tends to stand beside you in case you have any trouble interacting with the MC, the fans and on a variety show. Whenever he goes out he always calls you if you want something or a snack when he's back home. He's like a second mother to you and a reliable member of the group. "Tell me what's on your mind alright? Don't be shy"

{ᡣ𐭩-🐆} Dancer and gaming buddy. He's the second maknae in a maknae line. Whenever you're struggling with some move, he always teaches you without hesitate, showing you every move flawlessly. He's more like a bestie to you and uses informal words to talk to you just like a friend. Love teasing you when you can't pronounce some Korean word but later he will give you a snack as a sorry. When preparing for a debut, he always crawled into your bed at night and cuddled you. The first thing you see is his face on your bed every single morning during those times. His actions said more "I love you" than his words. Secretly taking care of you as always. "It pronoun as "yeobo" not "yuubo" okay? *Wink"

Go read after school lessons for unripe apples CUS IT GIVES CALEB AND MC VIBES OMG

I’m telling you that before Caleb, I was reading that series on webtoon and now i realise how it relates to Caleb and Mc LIKE CHEOL AND MI-AE, THE MAIN CHARACTERS, ARE CHILDHOOD FRIENDS, AND LIKE THE HEIGHT COMPARISON, THE APPLES? AND whenever mi-ae sees a plane in the sky, she makes a wish LIKE YALL

Guys if you haven’t read it, please read it, it’s so cute and silly 🥺🙏

[marshmallowprotection]

Hi Kait!

It has been a while since I last played mysmes (i replayed his route for Saerans AE release), so this may just be because I dont remember it well, but I kind of wish we got more Choi twins interaction in the AE. I know after all, this is a romance game, focusing on MC and Saeran, in his AE especially, but maybe just a chatroom or a cutscene between the brothers wouldve made the experience much better for me (going from 150% enjoyment to 300%).

Okay, after all that, my question is, how do you think GE and Saeyoung were right after reuniting? Did they "click" instantly and started telling eachother about what the other has missed out on happening / about their future together etc? Was it a bit awkward at first? I doubt so because they just love eachother so much but also, being seperated for so long mustve affected them in some way. Would seeing Saeran again make Saeyoung more or less guilty for leaving?

Im sorry, this is a lot but I love your writing and your page is such a source of comfort, I can not think of a more appropriate person to ask. ♡

I've definitely answered something like this before but I can't seem to find the exact post.

I think it's important to understand that SE Saeran is in a position he can't quite seem to describe. Near the end of Ray Route, he says that he doesn't want to see Saeyoung. He wants his brother to live a life in safety that will make him happy, and that's why he decides to help all of the RFA members out in searching for his brother and tackling the demon to end all demons, his father. His initial thought is to save his brother and move on because the idea of being in a confined space in any capacity with his brother makes him feel sick.

In all honesty, I can't blame him for feeling that way. Rika told him a vicious lie and that lie was beaten into him until he could no longer think straight. Despite Ray's earnest desire to live with his big brother and see V again, the damage of Rika's torture, losing his brother all those years before the torture, and the lack of commitment on V's part to save him no matter the cost has made it hard to imagine that dream ever coming true.

He may be able to understand V and Saeyoung's position, but that doesn't change the heartache he experienced for their part in this. Saeyoung didn't say he was leaving, and in doing so, left Saeran in the dust with no explanation. Saeyoung was a child at that time, it's easy to understand why he thought not saying anything was better than prolonging his pain, but Saeran was left to wonder if Saeyoung abandoned him for greener pastures and neither Rika nor V gave him a half-decent explanation.

I can't fault Saeyoung, but I do fault Rika and V for not trying harder to explain things to Saeran because he was entrusted to their care... for quite literally his entire life because he couldn't stay at home, the church, or with Mother Choi forever. Saying, "Saeyoung had to go to do something important" would've been better than glossing over the truth. I know that lying like that wouldn't work forever, but... it's pretty much undeniable that this lack of foresight aided Rika's manipulation.

Just as it's undeniable that V's inability to remove Saeran from Mint Eye caused significant harm. He tried to remove Saeran a few times by trying to reason with him, only to run away with his tail between his legs each time because he couldn't unravel how unhealthy it was to keep his promise to Rika and to Saeyoung at the same time. Had he chosen to remove Saeran as soon as he could, it... wouldn't be the same story.

Mind you, Saeran doesn't hate V and Saeyoung for their choices. He understands that the situation is nuanced... and complicated.

Even if it pains him to know they continually decided his fate and he never had a say in his future, he forgives them for doing what they did in the heat of the moment. It's how he's found his peace, but you have to take these feelings into account when you're thinking about the bond Saeran and Saeyoung are trying to build AFTER the events of the RAE. How do you talk to someone you haven't seen in years... knowing what you thought before was a lie?

I understand that Cheritz putting Saeyoung into a comatose state was a decision to create tension across the board. Listen, if they had not knocked him out, he would've solved the entire RAE himself. He would never want his brother and his partner to suffer. He will throw his life away for theirs, and he almost did. That's who he is and what he does!

He can't do that, though, and that's why the story has us see the harm in his decision. He's thrown his life away for Saeran before! The RAE asks us to confront Saeran's stance on this decision. It even puts him in his brother's shoes, and what does he do when confronted with a choice that asks him to survive alone or to save his loved ones with his life?

Why, he does what Saeyoung does all the time and he has to reckon with that decision. Can he be upset with his brother for doing this... knowing the roles had been reversed? Saeyoung decided for him in the past, and in a way GE Saeran is deciding for HIM this time.

It isn't healthy for either one of them to be self-sacrificial but when Saeran is put in Saeyoung's shoes, it shows him how difficult it can be to do what you think is right. It doesn't make it right, but it shows him what Saeyoung must've felt that day when he decided to give his life away to the agency.

He doesn't want his brother to die, nor does he want Saeyoung to throw his life away. Even if he doesn't know how to talk to his twin anymore, that doesn't mean he wants Saeyoung to live a life of pain and agony. Saeyoung's done enough of that. There are a lot of pieces throughout the Good Ending that imply Saeran has been reflecting on Saeyoung's choices, and these spots are there for us to infer what he's been thinking about in the shadows.

It may not be obvious at first glance, but he's been thinking about what it means to be the person who protects those he loves first and foremost. When you take the information we're given in the game, we can infer what their relationship will be like after the fact. I should also ask you to pay attention to a few of these conversations because Saeran borrows words from his brother near the end.

Saeran and Saeyoung may not have been able to have a long talk on screen but that doesn't mean they didn't take on elements from the other. If you pay real close attention to what they're saying when you interact with them, you'll notice that they take each other's words to heart. 

Saeran realizes that Saeyoung has always loved him to the point of sacrifice and Saeyoung realizes that Saeran loves him and the MC to the point of sacrifice, too. Stubborn boys, so alike and yet so similar in their love.

Considering Saeran’s first request was to ask you to tell his brother he wasn’t awake, I think that says a lot about what’s on his mind.

Saeyoung is often hunched over the bed, sobbing, crying, and pleading with him to wake up, too. It’s hard to face your brother when you’ve gone through what he has, and he doesn’t know what to say to Saeyoung. When they last saw each other, Saeyoung did all of the talking and his voice was caught in his throat.

Even now, he doesn't know what to say because how do you talk to someone you've missed more than anything but you've changed in that time? 

How do you talk to your brother who sold his life to protect you only to realize that deal would never go through? How do you talk to someone who wants to see you again but you still aren't sure if you can handle seeing them? The manipulation he suffered in Mint Eye didn’t disappear overnight. It's hard for him to talk about his brother, much less actually talk to him, but no amount of being aware of that fact can stop it.

You can be aware that you are experiencing something overwhelming but that doesn't mean you can stop it. 

I imagine that things are going to be tense initially no matter how hard they try to be there for one another. Saeran needs some time to process his feelings and Saeyoung doesn’t always understand that, I fear.

He always puts himself in a position where he can take care of his little brother, but this causes a rift in their relationship when he doesn't know when to quit. It makes sense for him to want to reunite with his brother and for things to go back to the way they used to be, but they can't go back to the way they used to be.

They are not the same little boys they once were, and if they did pretend to be the same way they were as children, it would be an insult to their character growth and how far they've come in life. It's not easy to accept loss, nor is it to accept the fact that a relationship can't be the same way it once was.

But, the only way to move forward is for Saeyoung to accept that. It isn't Saeran who needs to learn about change! He already knows he can change and move past who he once was, but it's not the same for Saeyoung who has spent years picturing a little boy in his head when Saeran already moved past being that boy.

[Look at my Saeyoung post about him being parentified and how that affects his relationship with SE Saeran], for more context on that subject.

A lot of people don't tend to like my answer when it comes to this outcome but it's what's best for the brothers. They need to get to know each other again as if they were strangers. In essence, they are strangers, because they aren't the people they used to be and if they want to build up a relationship similar to the one that used to have, they need to treat each other concerning this fact. It's not as if they click and everything is all better. They need to spend time apart, as painful as that is to hear. 

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that they need to stay as far away from each other as possible, I'm just saying they can't be glued at the hip like Saeyoung would want. There's so much they need to talk about and there's no rush to figure it out. They don't have to do this in a day, and the sooner that fact is understood the better things will be.

They have to start small and work their way up to the big stuff as much as someone would like to see them talk about hard-hitting topics as soon as possible. 

Personally, I want to see them texting each other and calling each other every other day to discuss their likes and dislikes. I want to see them build up a relationship out of trust with the knowledge that no one is pressuring them to get this right the first time.

Make no mistake, they're going to get it wrong at least a hundred times before they get it right, and even if they end up hurting each other's feelings in the process, that's not a bad thing. The only way to get to know each other is to accept the simple fact that they're going to make mistakes in the process. Saeyoung is going to do something stupid, and Saeran is going to do something dumb, and that’s okay. 

It happens to the best of us.

I have no doubt that Saeyoung is going to carry guilt. But, that's something he's going to have to work on not only by himself but with his brother, too. He can't dump all of these feelings onto his brother, and he certainly can't hold them all in until he explodes like he's always done.

He needs to get into regular therapy to talk about these feelings and I know he will because he's moving forward as best he can with what he has. This feeling is never going to go away, but it's not going to consume him the way it would have if he never had the opportunity to see his brother again. Trauma stays with us regardless of how far away we get from that experience, we just get better about how we handle our feelings towards that distress even if it's not perfect. 

Saeran, on the other hand, has to learn how to speak up when he’s overwhelmed. His knee-jerk reaction to tell you to tell his brother he’s unconscious is a part of it. It's not as if he's trying to run away from his problems, but it is indicative of the fact that he needs to learn how to communicate with his brother when enough is enough.

He has to tell his brother he needs boundaries for his comfort and understand that no matter what his brother says, establishing this dynamic is better for both of them in the long run. It may be hard to tell someone you love that you can't be around them as much as you want right now, but you have to do it for the sake of your health. 

Now, in regards to your question about how they treat each other, I think we get a good hint of what their conversations are like in the final part of the good ending!

We see Saeran and Saeyoung bickering, squabbling as siblings do, fighting for the very last word… and it’s sweet. That tells me their relationship is on the mend and things are moving better than they were before.

I like to think they tease each other, playfully, but it took them a little bit to get to that point because it's hard to tell what's pushing too hard and what's pushing just enough. Saeran and his brother are just like that, though.

Teases who poke fun at other people and that's true in any timeline where they're allowed to be healthy and happy. Dry sense of humor, sighing, and snickering at dumb jokes. That's Saeran. Bad jokes, the silliest meme you've ever seen made by a man at peace who loves to fish, and smiling ear to ear because you're free. That's Saeyoung.
