Stray Kids Fic Recs-Demons

Hello! It is time for another group of fic recs, this time anything related to demons (ex. succubi and former "imaginary friends")! Demon summoning is one of my fav tropes so again if you have any recs that aren't on this list send them my way! Mostly Minsung with some others

My other fic rec lists:

Misc

Time Loop

Angst free

let me wrap the chains by saru (Minsung | 1/1 | 23,164 | explicit)

Pressure at the foot of the bed makes the mattress dip, and Jisung experiences what can only be described as waking up into a dream. His brain, foggy with short-lived and restless sleep, registers a number of things that might not make total sense but are received as facts, regardless: there’s a hand tugging at the waistband of his underwear, a pair of knees bracketing his own, and the distinct smell of fire in the air. In the darkness of his room, ruby red eyes trail up Jisung’s body before locking on his own. — or, Jisung’s late-night visitor turns out to not be quite as imaginary as he originally thought.

I love the world building in this one!

amber of ember by adisadatra (Minsung | 1/1 | 21,941 | Explicit)

Minho is tired. He’s so, so tired, and he’s felt unsafe in his own life since the day he discovered Seojoon and his lover in his bed. At work, in Minho’s flat, at his favourite park with the hideous fountain, he’s always listening for footsteps behind him, braced for impact and seeing danger everywhere with his nerves feeling peeled raw. He’s spiralling downward, he knows he is, and he’s not even sure what’s real anymore. Making a deal with a demon isn’t the worst-case scenario right now.

I loved this one! Basically Minho has a creepy ex and makes a deal with a demon (Jisung) to get revenge

above the trees by tentoheaven (Binsung | 1/1 | 30,245 | Explicit)

Changbin stares at him, still struggling to take in all of his features. It’s incredible how someone can look so different, yet still completely unchanged. “Jisung?” Part of him still holds onto the belief that the man will frown, maybe laugh mockingly, maybe ask ‘who the fuck is Jisung?’ and leave. Changbin isn’t sure whether that would be worse than the alternative. (Or: ten years after his abrupt disappearance, Changbin’s imaginary friend barges back into his life—not human, but very much real.)

I loved Changbin and Jisung's dynamic in this one! Minor 2min as well which is super cute

god knows we're lonely souls by flying_dream (Minchan | 3/3 | 34,864 | Mature)

Chan is a touch-starved producer. Minho is a sleep paralysis demon who has never known affection. They're not in love - they barely even know each other - but somehow they manage to make it work.

This is for sure my favorite on this list, if you only read one read this one!

exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation by yamesungie (Minsung | 1/1 | 4862 | Explicit)

format-default : Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. “What the fuck do you mean, invocation? Am I coding or playing D&D? Do I have to roll a d20? Do a blood offering?” “Invocation is another term for a method call, you can thank me later.” “Hey, I was joking, I already-” knew that. Wait, what the- Jisung lets out a blood curdling scream and almost falls out of his chair as he turns his face away from his screen. The man standing next to him stares at him, arms crossed and an amused grin on his face. “What the fuck are you doing in my apartment?” "I feed off humans' lust, anguish and despair. It’s only natural I choose to target software developers past their bedtime, right?" (or: Jisung is a software developer on the verge of a mental breakdown, Minho is the incubus who visits him at 1am.)

Super silly concept and a short and sweet fic

How I Met My Demon by alcrox (Jeongsung | 1/1 | 17,447 | Explicit)

“Well, to my utter surprise, no demons were summoned,” proclaims Jisung dramatically. Now that the shooting is nearing its end, he feels decidedly more chipper. Less faking it. “Fuck you too, demons.” He swipes a broad hand over the glitter, messing it up even more. It looks like there has been a bloodbath in the room, only the blood is shiny and glittery and sticks everywhere. “Now-” “I swear to hell, what is your problem?” Jisung jumps. Violently.

5 times Jisung summons a demon and 1 time he doesn’t.

Where Jisung is a youtuber and summons a demon as a joke. Love this one!!

And that's all I have for demon fics! Like I said before if you have any (or any other fic I haven't recced yet) that you've liked that aren't on this list please send! My next ideas for fic rec lists are fantasy, fake dating, and college au--if you want me to do one of these first also lmk!

Meet the Characters: Part 1

So, to keep myself from posting lore spoilers- I decided to write more information on the characters; it certainly will not be all of them as I want to keep some things under wraps (also as a way to keep myself from rushing in and spilling everything in one go)

Minor lore ramble: something to keep in mind is that the Ninja does not exist- for obvious reasons. The supernatural comes from the Whoopee attractions and its secondary pizzeria joints. The timeline is yet to be set in stone, but I do think that the original Whoopee's Pizzeria has been around for more than few decades; the missing children incident did occur almost thirty years ago.

Now, onto our first character- the main character of our tale: Ellis Winslow.

While their appearance remains undetermined as picrew can be a little menace sometimes, Ellis does have a set personality; they are a bit reserved- preferring to keep to themself, and has a habit of keeping others at a distance. They can be loyal to a fault, capable of holding secrets. Unfortunately for El, they also have childhood trauma causing outbursts at times, using unhealthy coping mechanisms (such as smoking), and having feelings of uncomfortableness around the pizzeria - without fully knowing why.

Ellis was born in Norrisville, Oklahoma. Their mother worked as a physical therapist, and their father was a mechanic (which is how El decided to become an engineer-). They were an only child, but somewhere down the line, they met Randy Cunningham and Howard Weinerman.

Randy and El were a lot closer than El had been to Howard, but the trio mostly met up on the weekends; since El's parents were busy a lot of the time, taking Ellis to see the boys during school nights simply wouldn't have been as possible-

Some years later, Whoopee's Pizzeria was established as a state-of-the-art animatronic restaurant with family-friendly fun. Having already been going on and off, it wasn't a surprise when they went for a birthday party. Things had been going amazingly- at least Randy was bouncing off the walls, excited to see his favorite characters, and Howard seemed to care about the food but even then they were having fun. Some of their classmates had also gone as it was the weekend, and well, who wouldn't want to see a band perform and eat delicious food?

Unfortunately, only three hours later- tragedy struck the heart of Norrisville.

Several children went missing- and were never seen again; amongst them was Randy Cunningham, El's close friend.

(things were never the same after that)

Ellis could feel a pit in the bottom of their stomach, unknowingly aware they would never see Randy again- years however, came to pass and the barely-hanging-on-a-thread friendship they had with Howard fell apart. In high school, El picked up unhealthy habits (more specifically smoking) as a way to deal with their parents being constantly busy, and well, the nightmares plaguing them about Randy's disappearance (they weren't the only one-).

Thankfully, they managed to pass high school and decided to become an engineer- and somehow, despite the wariness held over the place, scored a job at Whoopee World; the expanded amusement park of the former Whoopee's Pizzeria (and new home to the animatronics). Ellis was tasked with repairing the animatronics, as well as providing technical support when needed. Perhaps it would come to give them the closure they needed.

El knew the animatronics had free-roaming software and would likely be installed with face recognition, but there was something about the red panda animatronic sharing his name. (deep down it hurt, knowing it couldn't be randy- it was just a robot).

At some point, I do plan on writing a masterpost/masterlist with the characters' information and then some, but that will have to come later!

Ellis is of course, not the security guard but they are still the main character- alongside a few others.

Indigencies

My father grew up dirt-poor in a village in India. My grandmother valued education, and with her prompting, he managed to get an engineering degree and an educated wife, coming to the United States.

Alternatively: my mother’s mother was the most hardworking woman in the world, running multiple businesses, doing the housework, and raising her children. As a high schooler, she held an (unsuccessful) hunger strike to promote her right to an education. She passed on that determination to her daughter. Between my mother’s ludicrous work ethic and terrifying ambition, she found a husband with her goals and gained a medical degree in two countries, settling in the United States. 

Either way, my mother and father, through luck and hard work, came here with the skills to better this great country. My mother maintained throughout my childhood that there was nowhere to gain success like the US. She worked at a hospital until the administrators determined that an endocrinologist wasn’t profitable enough to justify on staff, at which point she opened her own practice. My father worked at a bank until one of his college friends suggested an entrepreneurial software-producing business, and as such, Multicoreware was born. Both of them brought new jobs to Sunset Hills and provided a necessary service that wouldn’t have existed if they weren’t there. 

The word “indigenous” means “native to the land one is living on,” but the term “indigency” simply means “poor.” My family is, under some definitions, indigenous to India, but according to all definitions, we suffer indigence nowhere. We have, in fact, never suffered indigence in our lifetimes. My dad got his education through scholarships, but he did get his education. My mother was even more privileged. Don’t get me wrong, she didn’t have air conditioning or pasteurized milk. She was still wealthy by most Indian metrics, though, and that wealth allowed her to get a degree, which was fundamentally important in getting her green card.

That’s important. Regardless of how you spin their rags-to-riches story, neither of my parents literally started in rags. My father got closer than my mother, but ultimately, neither of them were starving on the street, and there are a lot of people in India starving on the street. Those people don’t end up in the US. 

Did you know that not all Asian Americans are wealthy? I don’t mean that literally, obviously some Indians start gambling recklessly or get trapped by a lack of universal healthcare. I mean that “Asian American” is a demographic so large as to be useless. If you break down the overall group, you’ll find we’re harshly divided between people who immigrated like my parents and refugees, making up the top 10% and bottom 10% of US earners. Isn’t that funny? 

My family’s from Missouri, Saint Louis specifically. 

In the meantime, my parents bought a suburban house and had two daughters. Becoming a doctor or engineer is well-known in India as a ticket to success, but my parents taught my sister and I to value the opportunities this country had, so we followed our hearts instead. My sister bounced around for a while, studying psychology and sociology, but she settled on educational nonprofit work, helping kids in India succeed. She works in fundraising, convincing potential philanthropists that their cause is a good enough one to sponsor. My sister is, I’ve been told, very good at her job; listening to all the office politics is always amusing. I became an ecologist and conservationist. It’s less of a non-sequitor than you’d think: my family adores national parks and hiking, and there’s something so fundamentally beautiful about this continent. Come to the Midwest: we have the best thunderstorms in the world. My job is something I would never get to do in India, and it’s good chunk of the reason I’m so grateful for this country.

On a related note, I said that indigenous means “native to the land one is living on,” but it is more complicated than that. Indians living in India, for example, are rarely called indigenous. It’s a specific kind of colonization that creates the concept of indigeneity. The settling of other people on your land is a necessary step of the process. 

Even if that wasn’t true, I wouldn’t be indigenous anywhere. I was born in Missouri: even if I return to India, I will be an American returning to the place of her forefathers, not an India returning to their home country. 

There’s actually a thriving Tamilian community in Saint Louis. That’s the reason my parents chose to move there. Of course, by the time I was old enough to really notice social atmospheres, we’d ended up alienated from said community through common drama, so that didn’t affect me much. 

By the time I was born, my family had established a pattern of traveling to visit India every year or every other year. Though it is important to understand your roots, we go there for more practical reasons. My grandparents deserve to know me, and my mother runs a charity organization.

The organization has warped over time. At first, we helped fund a school. Then, my mother began running diabetes clinics for rural Tamilians. Nowadays, my mother has been campaigning for an increase in millet-based diets instead of white rice-based diets. 

I don’t think either of my parents want to move back to India. It’s still important to take what we’ve learned in the US and return it to India. We owe the country that much. 

The result of all of this is that it’s accurate to say my family is from a colonized culture, not an indigenous one, but I am from neither. Within the US, we are primarily aligned with a colonizer culture, enjoying its luxuries and upholding its narratives. I’ve been saying for years that I am more American—using “American” to mean “from the United States,” which is its own can of worms—than I am Indian. I was born in the US, and I was brought up here. These are the opportunities that I have most enjoyed. This means that, regardless of my genuine love for this country, I am a colonizer that has put down roots. 

I wonder, sometimes, if I would have connected more with India if I connected more with the community in Saint Louis. I probably would have, I think. I barely know how to celebrate Diwali, and I don’t know any of our other holidays. I’m Hindu in a lazy, abstract way. I don’t speak Tamil.

On the other hand, I’m Indian enough that I don’t get to be American, not all the way. I’m not a pie chart—70% American, 25% Indian, 5% something else—but I might as well have been, the way people used to talk to me. 

I’ve gotten something else from our trips to India, though. I’ve knelt in stone temples and before my great-grandmother. I’ve wandered through drip-irrigated farmland and watched my mother bring reusable bags from India because there was nothing like our woven bags in this country. Frugality, sustainability, humility, and spirituality all mean the same thing to me, nowadays. As we were bringing our Western education to our home country, I brought pieces of my home country back to the West. 

As an ecologist, this is tricky. In a lot of ways, my field is simply an attempt to gather the knowledge that indigenous people already knew, and we have a bad habit of writing off their credits or overwriting their narrative. On the other hand, my family is from a colonized culture, and there’s a chance my perspective will be worth something because of that. I cannot turn my back on this field. It’s my duty, as somebody who has a chance of understanding the tangles in the connection between culture and conservation, to remain in this field, attempting to help where I can and uplift marginalized voices. 

I went to India in high school then again just after the pandemic, and I think I found something worthwhile there. I mean, at first I had to really search for it; I don’t know how my sister finds it so easy to love that country. I really did try, though, and I did find something. I went to this farm vaguely connected to the school my family used to help fund—I don’t think we’re involved anymore, and my mom’s current charity efforts are leaning more chaotic than anything—and I noticed that they were using drip irrigation. After that, I started looking for that sort of thing, and I found it absurdly common. The average Indian I’ve met has no concept of conservation, but they do understand waste and how to avoid it, and often there’s heavy overlap. There are also cultural values surrounding the concept of duty, mindfulness, and practicality that I think really are valuable: I doubt Rama would have much time for fast fashion, prince or no. 

As an adult who knows how to look at the world through a cultural lens, I’ve been trying to learn about other culture’s views on conservation as I do my research. UC Davis is trying to include more information on Native American views on sustainability in its curriculum, and I’ve been reading Braiding Sweetgrass in my free time. It’s important to weave scientific methods with indigenous knowledge when promoting sustainability. 

Still, I’m worried that I’ll become as complicit, as academia isn’t always built to further true understanding. We have a way of talking as though we have knowledge and indigenous groups have practices, when in reality it’s much more complicated than that.

After that, I started putting real effort in, and I think I’m doing a good job of it. I read the Gita, which was a very good book, and Sundara Kanda, which really wasn’t. I’ve been wearing churidars the last few years, and I bought a Saraswati statue to put next to my Ganeshas. I started meditating. I learned to make chapathi. How many pieces can you put together before you’ve made one whole Indian?

And I really am trying to take this understanding of why culture is important and use it to reach out to others. Solidarity is really important. Did you know that it’s an Indian who attacked affirmative action most recently, the idiot? How do they not realize that racism chips at us all—

Anyways. I inexplicably started with Judaism—well, not inexplicably, I got guilty when I realized I knew more about Nazis than Jewish people—trying to get a shape of what cultural practices look like in the US. I don’t think I did an amazing job, but there’s only so much you can get from books. After that, I started reading more international authors, which I’m not certain did anything, but I enjoyed The Locked Tomb series immensely, so maybe it’s alright. 

Cultural understanding is incredibly important work and, in ecology, time bound time bound. We are embedded in a mass extinction of our own making, and we need to work immediately to prevent everything from getting worse. As such, I’m getting a Masters degree, the a PhD, then I’ll get an entry-level government position and work steadily to— 

Of course, leaving academia and moving to direct activism would be the most morally correct thing to do, but I’m not certain I have the personality matrix for it. Perhaps I should invest more of my free time into volunteer work. 

Most importantly, I really am trying to understand the Native American perspective on the United States, specifically from within California because understanding one culture well seems better than stereotyping a million, but that’s such a massive undertaking, and I really don’t want to come off too white savoir-like as I do it, and if understanding Judaism from a book is impossible I don’t know why I’m trying with Potawatomi culture, Jesus Christ at least I’ve met a Jewish person before—

It’s not about understanding every culture on earth; I understand that. My curiosity drives me to understand everything, but from most people, all that I have are whispers. An rudimentary understanding of Chi from Iron Widow overlaid with giant mechs and messy polyamory. The Peruvian Sacsayhuaman, meaning vulture feast, after the mass of bodies that lay there after the conquistadors had finished their work. The layer of powder on temples in India, leftovers from the stuff that’s supposed to go on your forehead.

It just feels wrong to know so little about the land I’m walking on. A’nowara’kó:wa means Turtle Island, and according to Braiding Sweetgrass, that’s the actual name for North America. I learned that a month ago.

I kind of hate India, but I know it’s mine. It’s not like the US which I’ve had to claim over and over again. The US had to be imprinted on to me through birth certificates and accents and yelling “I am a patriot!” at disruptive times. I was Indian the moment I was born; the land itself is pressed into my skin. 

The land I was born on belongs to someone else. It’ll always belong to someone else. That’s not okay, but it has to be.

The work we’re doing is difficult, but it’s the only practical way to make a difference. 

We need a revolutionary change, and soon. Continually spinning my wheels like this is useless. 

You know how the word “Indian” doesn’t mean actual Indians in the US? I mean, it might be different nowadays, but when I was a kid, “Indian” meant Native American first. I have, in the 20 years of my life, refused to refer to Native Americans as Indians, even when that was their preference. I don’t care that it wasn’t their fault, that “Indian” was as imposed on them as it was stolen from us. It’s our word.

Well, recently I learned that “Indian” wasn’t created by Indians either. The Greeks saw people living around the Indus River and started calling them Indians, but even “The Indus River” was a Greek term: the original word for it was Sindhu.

That’s not why my parents named me Sindhu. They wanted a Tamil name, and for us, Sindhu means “music,” and music is something transcendentally meaningful. It’s funny: that’s not an Indian thing, I don’t think, but it still feels Indian. All of this feels Indian. When I think of India, I think of grime and exhaustion, but when I think of Indians, I think of bright colors and music and how God connects us to the natural cycle. No wonder their country was named after a river, after music. No wonder I am named after my country.

One of the frustrating things about engaging with culture is that it’s the kind of work that’s never finished. It feels like mental health upkeep: it’s vitally important, and if you ignore it long enough you collapse, but lord is it exhausting. We need to put the work in to understanding each other, and colonialism is so baked into the fabric of the US that I don’t think we can progress without addressing it. That doesn’t make it easier to lose and gain appreciation for your country on loop. When an immigrant assimilates, how do they differ from the colonizers that surround them? 

I don’t think I’ll ever be happy with my relationship to India. There’s always something more I could be doing, another revelation on the horizon. I don’t think I’ll ever be happy with my relationship to A’nowara’kó:wa either. I just live on it.

The Choice

Douglas was in love with two women: Marie and Michelle. He had met them both at his workplace, where he was a manager of a software company. He had hired them as programmers and soon became friends with them. He found them both attractive, smart, and fun to be around. He enjoyed spending time with them, both at work and outside.

He had started dating Marie first. She was a brunette with green eyes and a sweet smile. She was kind, gentle, and caring. She always supported him and made him feel good. She shared his passion for music and movies. She was his girlfriend for six months.

He had met Michelle later. She was a blonde with blue eyes and a fiery personality. She was confident, ambitious, and adventurous. She always challenged him and made him feel alive. She shared his interest in sports and games. She was his lover for three months.

He loved them both, but he knew he couldn’t keep them both. He knew he had to make a choice, but he didn’t know how. He didn’t want to hurt either of them, but he also didn’t want to lose either of them.

He decided to take them both on a date on the same day, hoping that it would help him decide. He planned to take Marie to a romantic dinner at a fancy restaurant, and then take Michelle to a thrilling ride at an amusement park. He hoped that by spending time with each of them separately, he would be able to figure out who he loved more.

He picked up Marie first and drove her to the restaurant. He greeted her with a kiss and a hug. She smiled and thanked him for the surprise. She looked beautiful in her red dress and black heels. He felt a surge of affection for her.

They arrived at the restaurant and were seated at a table near the window. They ordered their food and drinks and started chatting. They talked about their work, their hobbies, their plans for the future. They laughed and flirted and held hands. They felt comfortable and happy.

After they finished eating, Douglas paid the bill and took Marie to his car. He kissed her again and told her that he had a wonderful time with her. He told her that he loved her and that she meant the world to him.

She kissed him back and told him that she loved him too and that he was the best thing that ever happened to her.

He smiled and hugged her. He felt guilty for lying to her.

He then drove her back to her apartment and said goodbye to her. He told her that he had to go back to work for an urgent meeting, but that he would call her later.

She nodded and said okay. She kissed him one more time and told him to take care.

He kissed her back and told her to have a good night.

He then drove away from her apartment and headed to Michelle’s place.

He picked up Michelle next and drove her to the amusement park. He greeted her with a kiss and a wink. She grinned and thanked him for the surprise. She looked stunning in her blue jeans and white shirt. He felt a surge of attraction for her.

They arrived at the amusement park and bought their tickets. They ran to the first ride they saw, which was a roller coaster. They got on the front seat and buckled up. They screamed and laughed as the ride went up and down, left and right, fast and slow. They felt excited and exhilarated.

After they got off the ride, they went to the next one, which was a Ferris wheel. They got on one of the cabins and enjoyed the view from above. They cuddled and kissed as they watched the sunset over the horizon. They felt romantic and passionate.

After they got off the ride, Douglas bought some cotton candy for Michelle and some popcorn for himself. They walked around the park, eating their snacks and talking. They talked about their work, their hobbies, their dreams for the future. They teased and joked and held hands. They felt playful and happy.

After they finished their snacks, Douglas took Michelle to his car. He kissed her again and told her that he had an amazing time with her. He told her that he loved her and that she made him feel alive.

She kissed him back and told him that she loved him too and that he made her feel special.

He smiled and hugged her. He felt guilty for lying to her.

He then drove her back to her place and said goodbye to her. He told her that he had to go back to work for an urgent meeting, but that he would call her later.

She nodded and said okay. She kissed him one more time and told him to be careful.

He kissed her back and told her to have a good night.

He then drove away from her place and headed to his own.

He arrived at his apartment and parked his car. He got out of his car and walked to his door. He unlocked his door and entered his apartment.

He sat down on his couch and sighed. He felt tired and confused.

He loved them both, but he knew he couldn’t keep them both. He knew he had to make a choice, but he didn’t know how.

He looked at his phone and saw two messages.

One was from Marie, saying: “I love you, Douglas. You’re the best boyfriend ever. Can’t wait to see you again.”

The other was from Michelle, saying: “I love you, Douglas. You’re the best lover ever. Can’t wait to feel you again.”

He stared at his phone and felt a pang of guilt and regret.

He wished he could have them both, but he knew he had to choose one.

But who?

The end.

[captainaikus]

At first glance, I immediately--- I just have to refresh my feed just to be sure of what I'm seeing right now. A BLUE LOCK MATCH-UP EVENT MADE BY THE ONE AND ONLY BELLE???!?!? (//▽//) aaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!! I WOULD LOVE TO PARTICIPATE IN YOUR LOVELY EVENT (and I don't mind receiving a late reply! I'll just patiently wait for it ( ´ ▽ ` ).｡ｏ♡)

I'm okay with either making it an SFW or NSFW. Whatever suits your mood! Cuz either way, your writing alone is already godsend ;; and the fact you'll consider sparing a few minutes of your time to pair me with a Bluelock character is enough for me to make me squeal /////////// Now, on to the details >:3

꒰ Tell me what your likes and dislikes and fav things to do in your past time ꒱

Likes: Draw digitally, watch productive videos, study whatever piqued my interest (Right now it's Nihongo, discover my own "Branding", study Adobe software, and how to draw digitally even better), play videogames (gacha most of the time and multiplayer games with my friends + lil brother!!!), spend time with my little brother, listen to my playlist while walking home during dusk (it's just pretty and fascinating to see the colors compliment each other so well) (same with stargazing while in a road trip back home as well!), hug the peeps I cherish with consent (it's just so warm/healing), and sleep. Seeing people do the hobbies that they love keeps me motivated and think "I should work hard too!" Eating desserts with one or a small circle of friends is one of my favourites too! And I treasure those moments a lot.

Dislikes: I don't like it when people speak very ill of the people I care about. It makes me angry. MATH. I HATE MATH (I can only gaze in awe at those who can do calculus and mental arithmetic). I also don't like it when people decided to be dishonest when they can just talk to me in a straightforward manner (I prefer a frank approach than being lied to). But most of all... I don't like drinking alcohol. It reminded me of... something... from the past...

꒰ What would you describe yourself as/ how people describe you ꒱

I'm an introvert, straightforward, and honest, and because of this, I straight-out tell the people I care about how special they are to me privately or in an open environment, but the one who gets easily flustered when they try to compliment me. The type of person who won't hesitate to be really serious at times (especially when I needed to be strict to accomplish a task) and the one who managed to stay calm/joyful at extreme rides inside amusement parks as my friends quiver in fear. My MBTI told me that I'm an INFJ though. However, whenever I ask my friends about what they think of my personality, they appreciate my determination despite my timidness, punctual, and genuine wholesome personality. Maybe the fact that I hug them a lot (w/ consent) at school became a factor lolol. I just want to appreciate their existence and make them feel special/important (cuz I know they're facing something they can't open up to anyone just yet.). It's the least I could do as their friend :3

꒰ The last book you read or the genre you mostly read ꒱

The last book I read was 4 years ago... Soman Chainani's "The School for Good and Evil: Book 1." I still want to accomplish my list of books though (classical literature & horror genre books at that too, since I want to compare/observe the book and their movie adaptations to see if the previous research and learning I had from multimedia subjects have any use). When it comes to manga, however, I read anything that catches my eye (especially when it has a good art style). Blue Period is my number 1, next is "Blue Lock" and then, "Witch Hat Atelier."

꒰ Your insecurities (if you want to, no pressure!) ꒱

Err... it's my tendency to have low self-esteem and the fact that I don't have a solid statement to answer the question "what are my standards to look for in a guy?" I'm still in the middle of figuring it out so I only answer those questions with "I love 2D husbandos/ikemen. Do you see this character?? I love him a lot!" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I hope this info helped you a lot :DD I'm sorry for making it long... I hope you're doing okiii with university stuff and I'll help pray for the love of your life to show up in BlueLock cuz as u said 4 months?! That's way too long for one character to not show up ;; >w<)b !!!

Mino! you’re making me blush \(//∇//)\

No worries about making it long! Honestly, I’m glad to be learning new things about people and expanding my book reading (i'm learning of new authors here) and the way i'm able to relate to some a lot of you (like i like digital drawing as well and blue period! and honestly- color coding and gazing at stars too !!) … Oml, Oliver hasn’t showed up in 4 months and now I finally get to see him in Germany vs Ubers match (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`) *cue ugly sobbing*

I match you with - Alexis Ness!

Vibes I get from this relationship - fitting in spaces and awkwardly geeky (its really adorable) He is a golden retriever who isn't afraid to bite. He is a human calculator - literally in charge of Kaiser's bills and I'd like to think that he knows about software, looks like a secret boy genius behind kaiser. he also doesn't like speaking ill about people he knows (that one time Kunigami spoke ill of Kaiser and he was pissed) he is passive aggressive and looks like oblivious... but looks can be deceiving and he is sharp. He also appreciates digital art and here's what it looks when he does -

"Why are you wasting your time with that?" he asked, pointing at your setup as you were digitally drawing. "Why do you waste your time with that?" you asked, pointing towards the other room where his personal computer sat. "Touché." he said, walking over, looking at your tablet as you were drawing with your stylus. Taking his finger, he made a dash on the side of the tablet, drawing a line that interrupted your drawing, making you pout. "Don't do that, Alexis." you said, erasing the line off the layer and exiting the page, instead opening a new one. "You wanna try to draw something, here. Let me see what you've got." you said, placing the stylus in his large hands. Taking it awkwardly from you, he began to draw from what looked like a coconut tree, making you giggle. "Is that a coconut tree?" "Mhm." he responded, drawing a 'v' near it. "And is that supposed to be a bird?" you asked, pointing at it. He said nothing as you watched him drawing random things across the page that included a football. Taking the pen from him you drew a smiley face with messy hair and placed the tablet near his head, laughing as he turned his head to the side. "This looks so much like you." you chortled as he gave you a look of disapproval. Tossing the tablet aside on the sofa, he pinned your arms by your head, figure hunched over you. "Why don't you make a whole picture of me? Maybe without clothes to get in the way. What do you say... artist? " he said, leaning in close to your ear, voice dropping to a low octave, teeth biting the outer shell of your ear. "Draw me like one of your french girls?"

Leveraging Highly Immersive Technologies in Building Successful Theme Parks

The concept of theme parks has been around since the European Renaissance. These amusement parks, over time, began serving as a source of recreation where people could take a break from the monotony of their daily lives. In the 1950s, Disneyland became the first park centered around a specific theme, thereby paving the way and inspiration for several other theme parks. As technology continues to advance at a disruptive speed, customer-demands for seamless digital experience in every aspect of their lives, are also at an all-time high now. The same expectation can be witnessed in the case of theme parks, which are increasingly getting popular and competitive.

Theme Park engineering has come a long way since inception, and the incorporation of highly immersive technologies are now significantly contributing to this evolution. With the proper implementation of emerging technologies, it is possible to develop theme parks that exceed customer expectations besides improving park management significantly.

· Immersive Tech for Enhanced Customer Experience

Building a successful theme park requires all stakeholders to invest in cutting-edge technologies such as robotics, AI, intelligent motion control, and advanced wearables to offer a truly connected experience to the customer. Immersive technologies such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR) provide guests with an opportunity to experience a wide range of environments and scenarios that are not possible in the real world. In fact, several trend analyses show that customers prefer to visit theme parks that offer a virtual reality experience.

Here are 5 such immersive technologies that are driving a change and can continue to transform theme park engineering:

1. Virtual Reality (VR) — VR technology allows visitors to be transported to different worlds and experience things they may not be able to, in real life. For example, visitors can experience a roller coaster ride in a virtual world, providing a thrilling experience without the risks associated with a real roller coaster.

2. Augmented Reality (AR) — AR technology can collect real-time data about visitors thereby enabling theme parks to offer tailored personalized experiences based on individual preferences. Visitors can use their smartphones or tablets to view virtual characters or objects overlaid on the real world. This can make attractions much more interactive and engaging.

3. Immersive Projection Mapping — Immersive projection mapping technology can be used to create immersive displays, shows and truly dynamic virtual worlds that become interactive when paired with wearable tools, sensors, and software to detect motion, guest location and even the retinal movements. The interactions are primarily triggered by technologies, such as GPS, IR, and NFC (Near Field Communication). With the latest advances in this technology, it is now possible merge digital content with analog movement without any lag and provide a seamless experience to the visitors.

4. Interactive Displays — Interactive displays can be used to engage visitors and provide information about the park and its attractions. Touchscreens can be used to display maps, show schedules, and provide information about the rides.

5. Wearable Technology — Wearable technology like smartwatches and RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification) bracelets can be used to enhance the visitor experience in theme parks. Visitors can use their smartwatches to pay for food and merchandise, and RFID bracelets can be used to access certain areas of the park or participate in interactive experiences.

· Immersive Tech for Efficient Park Management

Immersive technologies can also increase the efficiency of park operations and maintenance. By using technologies such as AI and IoT, parks can optimize queue management, track guest behavior, and analyze data to make informed decisions about everything from staffing to ride maintenance.

Innovative immersive technologies are revolutionizing the theme park industry with the power to provide customers with unique and unforgettable experiences, personalization, and increasing operational efficiency. Thus, it is crucial for theme park designers and engineers to incorporate a proper blend of these technologies to stand out amidst competition and realize value.
