Part 2

Pairing: Jimin x Reader

Warnings: attempted kidnapping, swearing, mentions of a knife,

Genre: idol!au, witches/wizards!au, royalty!au, (slightly one sided?soulmate!au...that’s all I can say without spoiling later chapters) Fluff, Angst, future smut.

Summary: Jimin has waited quite a lifetime to find his soulmate. He didn’t expect to find her at one of her concerts, and certainly didn’t expect her to be such a big Jungkook fan.

(Again: Thank you @heyitsayjayy for being such an amazing beta reader and friend 😭❤️ also another big thank you to @heyitsayjayy and @kingsuckjin for helping me brainstorm ideas for this)

Tag list: @superwholock36 @otomehideout-indecentconfessions

“Hey...You get the money though” A was trying to comfort you and doing quite a poor job of it. 

“Money doesn’t make this better A!” You sobbed into your pillow.  “That was the most humiliating thing I’d ever done in my life.  The way he looked at me...” You let out a small scream into the soft fabric. 

“I’m sorry y/n.  You don’t have to get so worked up about this though.” She spoke snobbily.  She sat  down next to you on the fluffy pink comforter on top of the bed that you lied on.  

“Get out.  I’m so sick of you always forcing me to do stuff like this for your entertainment.  Just cuz you have the money. And you know that I need it so badly? What kind of friend does that?  Are you having fun right now?” You snapped loudly. 

“Geeze y/n.  What the fuck.”A  huffed and walked to the door of your room. “You’re so lame.  I was getting bored of you anyway.” She shrugged and strutted out, slamming your house door on the way out.  

You released an unrestricted scream into the pillow.  This was hands down one of the worst days of your life.  The concert was ruined.  Your friendship was ruined. And-

You suddenly sat up and cocked your head to the side.  There was a soft mewing sounding outside, it sounded close. 

You stood up shakily and half wiped the tears from your eyes.  

The mewing continued, followed by a scratching noise, all originating from your front door. 

You opened up the door and looked down to see a small cream colored cat with beautifully groomed long fur.  

“Hi there buddy? What are you doing outside my door?” You chuckled lightly wiping the remainder of the wetness from your cheeks. 

The little cat scampered into your house and sat down, licking its paws like it was right at home. 

“Oh? Go ahead and make yourself comfortable I guess” You giggled, “Won’t someone be missing a pretty thing like you?”  You walked over and crouched down, petting its head as it leaned into your fingers, letting out a loud rumbling purr as you did. 

“I suppose you can stay here for the night if you’d like?” you scratched the cat under its chin and it let out an excited meow as if it could understand what you were saying. 

You went and grabbed a small, blue, plastic bowl from your kitchen cabinet and filled it with water, leaving it for the cat and shrugging at the weird moment.  ‘I guess I have a cat now’ You chuckled to yourself. 

You started to walk back to your room to go to bed, exhausted from the hellish day you’d just had. 

You heard the pitter-patter of little feet scampering to follow you.  You turned around and the cat was right on your heels.  It cocked its head to the side and let out another cute and tiny mew. 

“Well, I don’t see why you can’t join me.” You waved your hand, motioning for it to follow you into the room, and it did.  Close on your heels and then jumping onto your bed after you.  

You got settled in under the sheets and the cat curled up right next to your pillow, cutely resting its head on its front paws and letting out a series of purrs as you brought your hand to scratch it’s head once again.   

“I needed this tonight.  It’s been a rough day.  Thanks for not making me go through this alone” you whispered to the cat as its eyes fell heavy. “You don’t have fleas do you?” you added in an even softer whisper. 

--------------------------------------------

When you woke up you rolled over to check your phone and see if A had texted or called to apologize, you’d completely turned off your phone after the concert.  Nervous you’d get a call from Big Hit to give you a restraining order, it wasn’t something you felt you could handle in that  moment with the wounds still fresh. 

The cat was still sound asleep next to you, its long fur blowing majestically due to your ceiling fan. 

“Hey kitty kitty” your hoarse morning voice croaked out. 

You grabbed your phone off he nightside table.  Your heart sunk when you saw a text from an unknown number.  ‘Well here's the restraining order’ you thought. 

But instead it read something much different. 

-

Hi, y/n.  This is Jimin...you know from BTS?  You left your number for Jungkook and I was wondering if you wanted to meet up with me some time to talk over some things.  Just say the word and I’ll send the limo over ;)   

Sincerely, 

   Cutie Sexy Lovely 

-

What the hell?  What kind of prank was this? 

Jungkook must’ve tossed your number after the concert and some fan had picked it up and decided to mess with you.  You were NOT having that after the night you’d had. 

“Hey kitty, I think I’m gonna go pick you up some food and toys today.  If you really feel like sticking around you might as well feel at home huh?” You smiled as the cat rolled over onto its back and stretched. 

-------------------------------------------

The cat stayed with you for a few more days, and you’d taken to calling it Jellybean.  You even got it a little collar with its name on it.  It was a bit soon, and for all you knew it was someone else’s cat.  But, it was the perfect thing to take your mind off the loneliness of your best friend calling it quits with you. 

You’d heard BTS had decided to go on their first official break. You knew it had nothing to do with you but you couldn’t help but wonder about how sudden it was, and the timing of it happening the night after that concert.

During those days you’d gotten at least three more texts from that number claiming to be Jimin asking if you’d gotten the previous one.

After a week of Jellybean coming to live with you another text came in. 

--

‘Can I call you?’

--

You finally had enough with the prank texter and decided to reply.  You were curled up in bed in your sleep dress.  More like a far too big for yourself gray t-shirt that you liked to pass off as a nightgown.  You were the only one who saw yourself in it anyways. 

Jellybean was laying down by your feet relaxed and sleeping after a long day of doing the same exact thing in many other places around the house. 

Your fingers hit the letters on your phone screen roughly as you replied. 

--

‘I’ve had enough of this.  I’m pretty sure I know how you got my number but the jokes getting old.  I know you aren’t Jimin. Haha, very funny.  Jokes over now.  Please stop texting me’

--

You sighed and set your phone on your nightstand only for it to instantly buzz. 

They just would not let up with this prank. 

--

‘If you let me call you I can prove that it’s me.  You know my voice right? What if I sang you a song you’ve never heard before.  Then would you believe me?’

--

While part of you was quite curious to see how the prank texter would pull that off, you decided to just once again ignore this person with too much time on their hands. 

You started to fall asleep, while staring at the poster of Jungkook still hanging on your wall.  Pretending that he had never said those things.  Knowing you could never explain it to him, but wishing you could, or that you could take it all back. 

----------------------------

“This is her right?” a whispering voice sounded out in the dark. 

“Y/n, y/l/n.  This is the address for her.” a second voice answered.  

You were woken by a loud hissing from Jellybean. 

“Fuck.  Its that fucking cat!” A hooded figure was standing in the corner of your room yelling down at Jellybean who was tearing at the cloak attempting to attack. 

“God damnit.  She’s awake! I didn’t know the goddamn cat would be here.  Of COURSE they sent him.” Figure two yelled out. “Get her now and shake that annoying thing off of you” 

You felt like you wanted to scream but you couldn’t get the sound out.  Your throat burned and felt dry.  Your body was frozen and you felt an ice cold chill run down your spine.  You’d had a nightmare like this a few times.  But this seemed much more real. 

One of the hooded figures reached out to grab you, attempting to lift you off the bed. 

The chill running down your spine started to turn into a fiery flame of fear. 

You wanted to scream out NO! It rang out in your head on repeat.  You clenched your eyes shut wondering what in the world these people wanted with you, or what they planned on doing to you. 

At that moment something like a bolt of electricity seemed to light up the room.  Figure one dropped you onto the bed and let out a loud shriek. 

“She’s…” Figure two muttered. “We’ve gotta get out of here.  We weren’t prepared for this. Fuck.  No one told me she was a...HEY get ahold of yourself”

Figure one was huddled in the corner rubbing their hands up and down their arms and wailing. 

“Lets go” figure two hissed, grabbing figure one by the hand.  Almost instantly they had disappeared in a puff of smoke. 

‘What...the actual fuck’ your eyes were stuck wide and terrified.  You felt yourself regaining movement and you shot up out of bed to go grab Jellybean.  But you couldn’t find your companion cat anywhere.  You were now worried that those fuckers scared it off, or worse…

You searched everywhere around the house, double checking all of your windows and doors, making sure they were locked as you went on your way. 

“Jellybean, the scary people are gone come get your treats!” you called out shaking a bag of the salmon treats Jellybean had loved best. 

What the hell was that electricity that made the kidnapper drop you? Was it you? It couldn’t have been.  You shook away the thought. 

“JELLYBEAN!” you cried out in a sob.  In your panic filled state you realize that maybe you should be calling the police instead of looking for your cat.  Yet, Jellybeans disappearance was much more on the top of your list at the moment.  You’d report this once your cat was safe and sound. 

After a few more minutes of crying and searching, a knock sounded out on the door. 

You froze in place.  Were they back? More prepared now to finish the job? Whatever that was…

You slowly tried to move your feet towards the door.  A few more knocks and loud shouts were on the other side of the door.  

You grabbed a kitchen knife on your way, holding it out in front of your body as you swung open the door. Closing your eyes you started wildly slashing the knife around. 

“WOAH!” yelled a voice

“Hey no no no.  We aren’t here to hurt you y/n” A familiar voice spoke calmly.  Actually the first voice was familiar as well. 

You opened your eyes to see seven men in matching black hoodies and masks over their mouth and nose standing before you. 

It was them…

[nagiru]

Ok. So. I was playing Pokémon (again) with a friend recently, and today I just. Sat there, thought a bit, and. Theories. Theories popped up in my mind. And they’re ridiculous, but also, just. Like. I was high on sugar, I think -- or crashing down from a sugar high --, and it just. Sounded remarkably plausible. So! Here they are! Though... after the cut, ‘cuz my friend also mentioned that one of them was... kinda dark. Haha...?

(Ridiculous) Pokémon Theories

1. Starters Theory (version: darker)

So. You know how in the games there’s always an explanation about the starters being rare pokémons that the Professors just happened upon in their travels? Well... but why don’t we ever find them in the wild? Why are the only instances of seeing these same pokémon when they’re with another trainer?

(let’s ignore the fact that the anime does, indeed, treat them as normal pokémon that are found in the wild. that’d just mess with this theory)

So. I got to this point: what if-- and, ok, this was a wild theory from the get go--, what if those starter pokémons were actually... experiments? That the Professors were doing, by the way, not some of Team Rocket’s (or any other group) experiments. No, the Professors created these pokémons. By experimenting with others, most likely. And then...

Well. Then, at some point, someone noticed these strange pokémons, yeah? But, the Professors - they’re well liked, they are noble people, not like Team Rocket or Team Galactic or whatever, so they spin around a tale of how they found these pokémons while travelling and all is fine. They just wanted to keep some in their grounds, yeah?

I guess the important part here is that they created these pokémons in larger numbers, instead of a single instance. So, they were able to get away with this excuse easily, thankfully. But the Professors, they were studying these creations.

... and at some point, the amount of information you can gather in a very, very controlled space is... lacking. So they decided that, who better than children to gather more information?

And thus the pokémon became starters. They would give these pokémon away at the start of the children’s journey, and then-- because they are concerned Professors--, they’d ask the children to stop by. Ask them about their adventures. Ask to see the starters. Gather more information. Further their research.

2. Starters theory (version: more ridiculous -- somehow)

(Ok. So, when I first presented that first theory to my friend, she told me: “wow, you can destroy childhoods”, so... I went and made it less dark. And more ridiculous, instead XD)

So. Think Jurassic Park. That in your mind? Good, because that’s where we heading.

The starters, instead of being rare wild pokémon (or experiments of the Professors) were, actually... extinct pokémons.

However, unlike with Aerodactyl, Omanyte, Kabuto and others (I was playing FireRed, ok? Kanto was all that was in my mind), these fossils did not have enough genetic material to just... resurrect them. Which was a bit troublesome.

So, in a very Jurassic Park theme, they decided to complete the genetic material needed with the genetic material of other pokémons, of course.

I imagine there would be some... failures along the way. But at some point, the solution became quite clear: Dittos. There is this pokémon that is capable of transforming itself into any other pokémon? What kind of genetic material does that have? So, Dittos are clearly the solution to this problem.

And they are (in part because -- because I also support existing theories -- Dittos are failed clones of Mew, and Mew has the genetic material of every existing pokémon).

But, instead of being some creepy reason to study them or whatever, the Professors just. Decided to try and resurrect these extinct pokémon. And if they ask children to use them in their adventure, they can know if these pokémons can actually survive in this modern world. Also, trainers are quite prone to leaving pokémons in DayCares and places like that. At some point one will lay an egg, don’t you think? And if that works, then it’s really only a matter of time until there’s enough specimens of these supposedly extinct pokémon running around, and that’s certainly a boon to their plan of repopulating these species.

3. The Unknown Theory

(I’ll start by saying that I like focusing on the most ridiculous things. And that I’ve always wondered about the Unknown Ruins in Johto)

So. We have Unknowns. Who have a whole alphabet in themselves. We also have ruins of something that looks a lot like temples. For these Unknowns.

Also, look at their names. Unknown. Like, seriously, could they be more mysterious?

Sooo... I was wondering, as I’m wont to do. And I remembered the movie with Unknowns, where they are capable of rewriting/reshaping reality. And realized that... we had two options. Either, a) humans knew about it in the past and made these Unknowns some temples because of that; or, b) Unknowns are much older than other pokémons.

I... got a bit sidetracked there, but when I returned to it, I was like. But. But what if the origin of pokémons were Unknowns? Not Arceus, as it’s told at the moment. Not Mew, as was the first story we were told. But Unknowns. These creatures (that could -- remembering Deoxys -- be aliens) came and just. Decided, for some reason (perhaps to fulfill the wish of a human? they did seem to enjoy fulfilling the child’s wishes in the movie... if I’m remembering it right, at least. Or just because they were lonely, that happens, too) went and... rewrote reality. And wrote the existence of pokémons into this reality.

Perhaps they did first create Arceus, because they were just tired and perhaps even lazy and didn’t want to do all the work themselves, so they got Arceus to create things.

(and then Arceus got lazy and created Mew to populate their plane of existence, but whatever)

And so. The Unknowns, happy with the existence of these new things...

Went to sleep. For the next millennium or so. In their temples. That at some point became ruins. Well... guess it’s time for even more sleep, don’t you agree?

Have any tips for starting a daily pokemon blog?

Ahhh i’m not sure if I’m a good person to ask but I can try to give some tips! (I think I’ve been asked this in the past too but my nets not really letting me go look right now)

Also this got a little long so I’m sorry ;v; Also i’d take everything I say with a grain of salt, I’m just a nervous person who loves serperior

But if you want to start a pokemon blog, defs pick a pokemon you not only love but love to draw! Doesn’t matter if it’s been done before, it hasn’t been done in your style! Everyone will add their own touch to how they draw. Like no lie one of my fav things is seeing how various people interpret a pokemon, heck even when they interpret YOUR pokemon (I may or may not have several things saved of people drawing Ex in their style cuz its so COOOLLLLLLL, let alone my serp folder)

Sometimes though the pokemon may be hard to draw and you may get frustrated. Like I know I could never run a sceptile blog like my friend does. ( @weekly-megasceptile ) I’ve drawn her sceptile a few times and hoo boy it wasn’t really that fun for me. I give Mint mad props for drawing that thing. My sister ( @occasionallymew ) has come to me a few times because she needed help drawing a pokemon or wasn’t sure on what a pokemon was. in her own words

“It’s why i have the bean [bean is how she and I refer to her mew Jesus]”

So if your favorite pokemon isn’t fun to draw for you you may end up just not having fun. And then you won’t want to run the blog.

That being said if your design is hard don’t think you can’t do it! draw it a bit before starting your blog to see how you like it and it’ll also get easier the more you do it.

Funny enough before I started drawing daily serperior I actually wasn’t that great at drawing snakes. I rarely did. I mostly draw humanoids and monsters and gore. So drawing a snake each day was interesting, more so because I like to draw Serperior closer to a python than how it canonically look (this is kinda the reason they are much rounder how I draw them)

But after drawing it for over 400 posts, I’ve gotten pretty good at it, I don’t really need to look at refs as much for how noodles curl, I can normally just figure it out on my own. I also no longer need to look at pictures of serperior when I’m drawing because I’ve just gotten so used to it. Like I know where to put the yellow curls, I know the husks.

That’s another thing though! this is more a general art tip than daily related, but don’t be afraid of using refs!! Don’t trace or copy directly but using a reference is a wonderful thing if you are unsure of something or the like. Like I have a folder on my laptop that is literally filled with pythons. Just lots and lots of snoots.

Another thing is a bit harder because I can get how discouraging it can be, but don’t feel down if you don’t get a lot of asks or interactions right off. And this may seem a bit mean, but don’t rely on asks to give you content for the blog. The internet can be a fickle place so you may not get the asks you want or many asks. When i started off I didn’t have too many asks if any so I just drew Serperior (this was before I decided to make it my character of excalibur) doing whatever, mostly it was related to Christmas because when I started I was in the middle of finals right before winter break. I was using this as a way to decompress each day after classes, and slowly i started to get some asks.

Depending on your frequency of update, the time you update, how you tag, and your sense of humor or the like, can affect if you get more asks. It also depends on how you interact with your asks.

Sometimes a post will sky rocket and then you get flooded. That’s kinda what happened with Daily Serperior, I can’t remember if it was the Gengar Plush post or the pizza post or even the move in post I had made, but something set off and I got asks a lot.

And don’t be afraid to turn your inbox off if you need to!! I know I’ve had to a few times, actually I had it off for a while, i had it reopened for the giveaway in case people had questions about it. I’ll be closing it again for a bit once I’ve finished the giveaway, because I get overwhelmed easily and it can lead to stress.

Also on the subject of asks, don’t be afraid to delete an ask that makes you nervous or uncomfortable!! Sadly not everyone is super chill, and occasionally you get some weird or bad asks. God am I no stranger to that. Honestly that’s the reason I’ve closed the ask box a few times, some people don’t like listening if you ask them to not send a specific thing. And sometimes it’ll get bad enough you want to quit (I’ve actually had a friend stop their daily blog because she got so tired of a certain type of ask). And if one person keeps sending don’t be afraid to block. I hate blocking but I’ve had to block a few blogs because they would send me asks time and time again on a subject I explicitly asked to not be sent because it makes me highly uncomfortable.

Now to get away from the negative,

All and all a daily blog is mostly about having fun. Interact with the community, send asks to other blogs ect.

Oh that reminds me, but depending on you, if you want to send in character asks it may be good to make a separate account not just a side blog.

With dailyserp i can’t actually follow back or ask as this account it’s a side blog. I do all my following and asks from my main @abunnydreamingofkisses

  (so if you see that name in your notes or watcher list it’s me!) Or i send asks on Anon. I typically send anons to other blogs because I’m pretty shy. I’m always terrified to talk to people. I’m also just really bad at holding a conversation because I just have issues coming up with things to talk about. or I’m drawing and I’m hyperfocused. So if you plan to interact more it may be best to have a separate blog. I never expected to actually get any followers I just wanted to draw a doofy noodle, so I made it a side blog and I sometimes regret that but at the end of the day it’s easier for me.

Another thing is I know there are a number of discord chats you can potentially join! I personally don’t join group chats because it actually will spike my anxiety, I love people and I like to chat and makes jokes but due to a few poor experiences with group chats in the past I have to avoid them to keep from having panic attacks.  But if you are able to maybe ask around see if you can’t join some. you’ll make friends most likely and memes are kinda a good way to get followers oddly enough (people like to laugh haha)

If Humor isn’t your thing maybe go for plot. I Know I follow a few plot based blogs and man it’s killer waiting for an update. Like over at @daily-poppy-primarina I adore the Brutus story line. I’ve got a thing for monstrous characters so learning about the dark primarina is really fun.

I know on serp I focus mainly on humor with a sprinkling of plot, but that’s mostly because almost all my asks are humor based.  I actually do have a plot all written out in a notebook on this noodles past, and I even have a comic I keep meaning to finish up after I lost the original but lifes been in my way (hence my multi week hiatus)

also never be afraid to take a break. I think that has to be my last tip. I hate taking breaks but sometimes it’s needed. Sometimes you’ll get burnt out, sometimes you are over whelmed, sometimes you just feel like getting away. It happens. But don’t let it control you to the point you hate your blog. Take a step back take a breather. It’ll be okay.

At the end of the day it’s about you having fun creating a thing you want. Draw, Write, send memes to ect.

So I guess that’s all i have to say ;v; sorry for the length I’m really bad with being concise haha
