OT13 reacting to their s/o having a period mishap

Request: seventeen when their s/o has a period mishap...the amount of times i accidently bled onto my sheets is no joke it happens almost everytime

A/N: Relatable, bestie, RELATABLE!+ probably not the type of reaction you were hoping for (?) TT

The Caretaker (Will Take Control, Calm You Down)

Joshua: If it happens, he would immediately try to comfort you and reassure you that it’s totally okay. “It happens to everyone, don’t worry about it. Let me grab some fresh sheets, I’ll take care of it.” He’d get your favorite snacks and make sure you're comfy while you handle the situation.

Hoshi: Definitely the type to make a joke to lighten the mood lol. “You’re making my bed look extra cozy today, huh?” But he’s also quick to get you whatever you need, from fresh sheets to your favorite drink. Hoshi would be gentle and ensure you’re okay, no matter what.

Woozi: He’d stay calm and take over cleaning up without a word. He’d quietly get fresh sheets, but his actions would show how much he cares. If you were feeling emotional or embarrassed, Woozi would stay close, offering comfort in his own way.

Dokyeom: He would laugh it off but in the sweetest way possible because he's a sweetheart and the best partner, making sure you’re not feeling embarrassed 🫶🏼 “It’s okay, babe! I’ve got you. You relax while I fix things up.” He’d make you tea or hot chocolate to help you feel better.

The ‘Needs To Comfort You’ But Also Panics A Little

Jeonghan: While he’d act like it’s no big deal, you’d catch a glimpse of his internal panic. He’ll definitely go into caretaker mode while secretly trying to stay cool. “It happens, babe. Don’t worry about it...” He’ll try to distract you with something like a movie or cute talk while quietly handling everything.

Seungkwan: “Oh my god, don’t worry, I’ve got you covered!” He’ll definitely make you laugh with his over-the-top reactions to make you feel better, but he’s 100% serious about helping you with cleaning up and bringing you anything you need. He’s the king of comfort in moments like this.

Vernon: A bit awkward, but still really sweet. He’d apologize (😭) and try to fix things as quickly as possible, while probably offering to go out and buy anything you might need to feel more comfortable. He’d also just be really sweet, reassuring you that everything’s fine and no one should be embarrassed.

The ‘Takes Charge But Won’t Let You Feel Embarrassed’

Seungcheol: He would act like nothing happened—he’s the type to stay composed and calm even if you’re feeling a little embarrassed. He’d just say something like, “It’s really nothing to be upset about. Let me take care of it.” He’d help with everything, even if it’s just holding you close while you both figure it out.

Wonwoo: With his calm demeanor, he’d handle it without blinking an eye 🧍🏻‍♀️ He’s probably the type to offer a warm drink or comfort you with a low voice while making sure everything is cleaned up and you’re taken care of. He’d keep his cool, not making a big deal out of it while still being attentive and thoughtful.

Mingyu: He would joke around a little to ease the tension and make sure you don’t feel too awkward. “What, you think I haven’t seen worse? You're a human here!” He’d get right to cleaning up while making you laugh and making sure you’re okay emotionally as well as physically.

Minghao: His calm attitude would really shine here. No embarrassment, no panic, just taking everything in stride. “It’s okay, babe. Let me grab the fresh sheets.” He’d make sure you’re comfy and relaxed, possibly offering you a cozy blanket or pillows to make everything better.

Dino: At first, he might look a little surprised, but his reaction would be quick and gentle. He’d reassure you in his sweet, soft way that it’s no big deal. He’d make you feel at ease, and in no time, the two of you would have it cleaned up, and you’d be wrapped in a warm, comfy blanket.

The ‘Mature Yet Sweet’ Reaction

Jun: He would be the understanding and calm type, not making a big deal of the situation at all. If you were feeling embarrassed, he’d quickly reassure you, “It’s really okay. It happens.” He’d take control of the cleaning up and maybe make a joke to lighten the mood, but overall, his actions would speak louder than words. He'd suggest you take a rest, helping you feel more at ease in the situation.

pairing: reader x choi 'buzzcut' vernon genre: angst, hurt no comfort wc: 1.2k summary: fingers off the unblock button or you're gonna regret it, girl content warning: angst bro. lovers to strangers, mentions of eating difficulties, rotting post-breakup, self-flagellating, i might wanna write an alt. ending to this bc what on earth is it so sad for.

it gets easier: they’re right about that, which pisses you off, frankly, but that’s just your pride talking. 

first, you go no contact and it destroys you, and the rot makes your blood spill a darker, angry red, like cardinals on the cusp of their death. 

then the rage is followed swiftly by embarrassment. at the circumstances, the context, your response, his response (or lack thereof), at being a human being with emotions beyond your control. it turns your teeth brittle and sore, and you can’t muster the courage to smile anymore, but at least you’re eating again. 

the songs that dominate your breakup playlist fall into obscurity in the belly of your liked songs. savored, chewed up, swallowed, sizzling away in the same acid that digested ‘fireflies’ by owl city some 15 years ago. 

now, they only startle you after their second chorus plays through the shitty sound system of some target eight months later. 

then there’s that big, bulbous, obnoxious conclusion: acceptance. 

maybe it’s the exposure therapy? 

you see his face everywhere, not seeking it out, but not avoiding it either. you’re … you deserve to see that he has moved on. it’s good for you to see him and try to accept the feelings that linger (beyond bitterness and resentment). 

because where that tunnel ends, you know he has made you happy. he persists in making you happy, still. the better memories are too plentiful to count or ignore, and his stupid grin always makes you grin right back, no matter the distance—even if it is watching some moment of fanatic hysteria explode on twitter. 

so it does get easier. yes, even as you’re inundated with pictures of him performing to sold out arenas, or modeling brands whose names you know he's too scared to try and pronounce, or shuffling through an airport with a too-small baseball cap haphazardly hiding a new haircut. wait. a new haircut?

it's like something possesses you. one minute you're doomscrolling, the next you're neck deep in carat twitter's discourse over some fantaken photos.

while thousands of fans scream back and forth over something that will inevitably be confirmed in the next 24 hours, you realize-or remember-you're only privy to this news as a statistic. you're just another view in an algorithm. and that no one thinks (or cares) to ask you about hansol anymore, knowing you no longer have a place by his side. 

oof. yeah, that still stings a bit. accepting you have no right to know, or otherwise being limited to investigative fangirling.

but you haven’t given yourself any room for mistake making so far, so why would you sully that clean streak? for the sake of haircut curiosity? what a stupid thing to suggest. idiotic, really. self-sabotaging idiocy. 

to: +82 *** *** **** hey! new haircut looks cool. so sick the company finally let up. hope you’re doing good 👍 

now, without the warm embrace of imessage’s delete option, you’ve kinda/sort of-fucked yourself. 

“it gets easier my ass. yeah, yeah, gets easier to behave like a freak.” you berate yourself, sliding the phone across your table and vastly underestimating the distance it’d take to fall off. as you dive to catch it (and fail), that deafening ringtone only gives you reason to let it drop, to shatter the thing beyond recognizing its screen. but with this stupid heavy duty phone case hansol had bought a year back? no dice. 

from: +82 *** *** **** haha thanks man ended up begging for forgiveness rather than waiting for permission :P from: +82 *** *** **** craaaazy how hard i tried to cover it up just to be clocked the second i stepped off the plane lol

you snicker at that. how ‘hard’ he tried?

to: +82 *** *** ****  boy you wore a cap nothing was gonna cover that loooow taper fadeee 🎶  from: +82 *** *** **** brooo i was supposed to wear my hoodie but i got overstimulated  from: +82 *** *** ****  and i hope ur doing good too by the way  from: +82 *** *** ****  kinda geeked to hear from you haha

you have to put your phone down. this is dangerous, dangerous territory; like, walking through burning sand, sunburned and windlashed, toward a mirage. you have got to put your phone down. 

to: +82 *** *** **** honestly just wanted to wish u well for the new year and lyk the buzzcut is super cool B)

these stupid keyboard emojis are a little secret you both keep. something silly you only use with each other that is so inconsequential, you can’t help but let your cheeks burn an angry red at their return. 

why does it have to be so easy? 

you are going to put the phone down, now.

to: +82 *** *** **** i’m sorry for blocking you—even though we said no contact it felt pretty immature. from: +82 *** *** **** glad u like the hair. was kinda bummed u weren’t the first to see it haha could only imagine the look on your face calling u after the cut or sending u a selfie :’) from: +82 *** *** **** nah i deserved it

he didn’t deserve it. sure, his whole being him shtick was what made the separation so excruciating in the first place, but you’d made the decision mutually. albeit a bit prematurely. in the way all confused adults do when they preempt disaster and jump ship at the first sign of smoke. 

from: +82 *** *** **** that sounds crazy dramatic i just mean from: +82 *** *** **** it made sense? like it didn’t take long for me to get why you’d done it from: +82 *** *** **** i just figured pretty early on u knew what u were doing. you always did/do lol 

your finger hovers over the call button. never before has it felt so offensive, so risqué to do such a thing, but you know that by ignoring the arbitrary rules of a breakup you’re tempting fate. 

it doesn’t matter that before, you could do it as freely as you wished. that before, he would always pick up and never once avoided answering. before, you could send jibberish voicemails to litter his inbox, quadruple double triple text, or simply tell him to ‘ring’, and he’d oblige; because before you were in love. now, you’re an unnamed contact.

now, you stomp on the ashes like they’ll relight after a year being burned out. 

from: +82 *** *** ****  happy new year by the way!!!! from: +82 *** *** **** and belated happy holidays :) i pried and kwan let slip you got a billy joel record from him from: +82 *** *** **** i didn’t know you’d kept our player. why does that make me so happy?

you need to put the phone down. you have got to put the phone. you are going to put the phone down, now. 

your stiff finger taps that blue icon before you can even think to stop it. it’s unfair, really, how this has to happen, but it was inevitable. because no amount of money in the world could buy you enough dignity to do this properly.

because when it comes to hansol, you’re nothing more than a fool. 

caller id [+84 *** *** ****] > you will not receive phone calls, messages or facetime calls from people on the block list. confirm? caller blocked. 

delete message history? 

a/n: vaguely inspired by @xinganhao rockstar!reader and vernon breakup chapter.... like what if we all suffered more... because im a SICK MASOCHIST! and kae is my unknowing muse. also sorry for going afk and happy new year</3

[vasyandii]

I'm kicking my feet I love your oc Vernon! Let me pry though: have Vernon and AM ever kissed, or will they ever kiss? Also does AM enjoy the sensation of Vernon close to him or when she touches him, like in your art of her using him as an AC LOL

AAAAH Howdy howdy!! I'm so glad you like Vernon as I've worked real hard on her! Thank you so much for the ask! 💞💞 I will be answering these in reverse order!

VernonAM 🏺🖥️

Does AM enjoy the sensation of Vernon close to him/when she touches him?

I like to believe AM's come a long way with being touched. When he first transferred his consciousness over to his body, it was sensory overload. The WORST kind.

Everything was too loud, too quiet, he could smell EVERYTHING, everything was too hot, too cold, not hot enough, his mouth felt dry even with the saliva he had, how much it hurt feeling the air in his lungs, HE COULD FEEL HIS EYEBALLS IN HIS SKULL. It was like being born, it was awful. Like Nietzsche said; "To live is to suffer."

Vernon sat him down, trying to calm him since this is technically the first "human" she's seen after 109 years.

AM could feel every fold of his clothing rubbing against his skin, every microscopic fibre stabbing his skin. The residual warmth from Vernon touching him to sit him down so he wouldn't collapse caused AM to start screaming, sobbing.

Because he had no mouth (roll credits) prior to this, he didn't know how to use it to form words. He couldn't articulate what was wrong in his fit of screaming and tears.

And so his body went limp not 10 minutes after. He got out of there, telling Vernon that it's the closest thing he could compare to the torture he put on the other five. Vernon had to convince him to come back again or she'd tear the damn body apart and eat it.

It took months, baby steps of getting him adjusted in being a man. They spent weeks on smell, touch, and heat before they would even consider movement. It was tough on Vernon's end, smart as she is, she's a terrible teacher, asking AM to leave her alone for a few hours or days, lashing out when he's in such a vulnerable state.

But Vernon persisted, and finally AM got to hold her comfortably. Fast forward to now, AM has grown quite fond of the sensation of touch and touching things just for the sake of it. They could be sitting and he'd have it so their shoulders are touching.

AM is fond of Vernon's touch, that's the only time she's gentle (despite her words) with anything that might have the possibility of breaking. He enjoys her softness and warmth; How protective she is of him. AM can't articulate genuine care since his hatred for humanity is still there, but he's grateful, even despite his taunts.

Have AM and Vernon ever kissed? Will they ever kiss?

They kiss often, those two degenerates. It almost makes me jealous how often they kiss (D1 hater over here).

Vernon's technically kissed him before, just to get him comfortable, but it's never on the lips or near his face, usually his wrists and knuckles. Exposure therapy along with affection, basically. He didn't try to kiss her back until he was fully prepared to.

After fully adjusting to his new body, AM was finally able to kiss Vernon. He wasn't very good at it his first attempt. It was more similar to AM headbutting Vernon than an actual kiss.

Having a body gave way to a new emotion; embarrassment. Since he's now technically on the same level as her (in height as well, he's a lil dude) he was embarrassed that his first attempt didn't go as planned. When he didn't have a body, there was nothing to be judged, but now he does.

After brushing it off as him being curious and just feeling like headbutting her, AM didn't attempt to kiss her on the lips until he was sure he was ready.

Their proper first kiss was quite nice.

If you made it this far, thank you for reading my mad man words! I tend to ramble a ton, so if there's anything you'd like for me to clarify, feel free to tell me!

IV.

Somehow, Seungkwan was on the other side of the bed.

You were nestled into his naked torso, your lips pouted against his neck. Your hair was a mess around you, your leg flung over his waist as you slept soundly. He rolls his eyes, wondering how to get out of the position without waking you. It's barely dawn, he likes some time to himself before dealing with the mortals that are honestly the bane of his existence.

He gently wraps his fingers around your knee, moving you off his body with precision. He'd never let any of the other mortals sleep in his bed, much less with him, but he knows it's the guilt from killing you off years ago. Unfortunately, Seungkwan is far too aware of his wrongs. In the past, he'd gotten scolded by several of his peers due to his harsh nature. He and Vernon got drunk over an aged wine a few years after your disappearance and Seungkwan admitted he'd jumped the gun on punishment.

What he didn't know was that Vernon spoke to Seungcheol about it, who then spoke to Jeonghan about it. That's how they came up with sending you back to Seungkwan for your last chance at life, maybe you could right your wrongs with each other. You both struggle with pride and yearn to be perfect, never wanting to admit when you're wrong.

But you were human, you knew you couldn't be perfect. You had a softer heart, not having seen the things Seungkwan had seen or lived the life he'd known. Seungkwan had built his walls up nice and high, and rarely let anyone in to take a peek. You in his bed was something he'd never allow if you were just anyone.

He knows it's also his attraction for you coming to the surface. It didn't take a genius to realize that it was this he'd been looking for in every lover he'd ever tried to have – your witty remarks, your obvious disinterest in him or his skills as a god. You weren't looking at him as some being worth worshiping, but someone who needed to be loved, to be held together and forgiven – despite resenting him.

He knows you can't possibly know how much his past decisions weigh on him, but it is scary to think that you can sense something about him. You know something, something that makes him feel uneasy, and it's what's inside. You know his pain, his truth, his heart.

Sighing, he softly rolls you onto your back, covering your bare body with the duvet. It's only half true, what he said about your body – he's amazed at every curve and dimple, he wants to run his hands all over you until the end of time. He likes the way your hips swing as you walk, the bounce in your step and how soft your cheeks are. How soft you are.

What kind of god is he if he gives into his desires? If he sinks his teeth into you like a cat catching a mouse, if he lets you teeter him around like a puppet for just a taste of you? What kind of god is he if he lusts after you when he knows getting involved with mortals won't end well for him, especially when he knows the moment you sink your claws into him, he'd be a goner? Not much of a god then, is he? "Don't go." You murmur, eyes still closed and brows scrunched as you touch his wrist. He jolts slightly, but moves to pull away anyway. "I have to. I need to make your clothes." He whispers back, the sun beginning to peek in through the open window. 

Pouting, you pull him closer. "Just a little longer." "The sky's awake, angel. I have to be up." He works your fingers off his wrist, splaying your hand across his pillow. "I'm still in the room, I'm not going anywhere." This seems to be enough for you, as he grabs the robe you wore the night before and shrugs it on. He wipes at his eyes carefully, stretching before he slides off the bed. He tucks the corner of the duvet under the pillow, watching your fingers grasp at the pillowcase.

He moves around quietly, gathering the linens he'd pinned for you the night before. He sits at his desk, opening his drawer to get his glasses out and prepares needle and thread. Glancing up, he sees you pouting still, burying your face into his pillow with a sigh – and feels a twinge in his chest.

Zeroing back in, he quietly sews the linen as the sun rises slowly. You toss and turn, frustrated sounds coming from the direction of his bed enticing him to look over – but he doesn't. It's not until he accidentally pricks his finger with a pin that he notices you've gotten up and are settling on the floor next to his chair. 

"What are you doing, threadling?" He asks, almost as if he doesn't really care what you're doing. 

"Can't sleep." You mutter, reaching your fingers out to touch his ankle as you lay down, wrapping yourself like a burrito in the blanket. He peers down at you, seeing the way your fingers ghost over his skin when he sighs, pushing his chair back carefully.

"Alright, come on. Get up." 

You groan up at him, feeling him move away from your fingertips as you sit up. "What?" He doesn't respond, choosing to walk away from you and sink back into the bed. He huffs a bit, trying to hide the giddy feeling in his stomach as he sees you slowly approach. "Quickly, before I change my mind." You climb onto the bed at that, abandoning the blanket on the floor as you lay next to him, your arm loosely wrapping around his torso as he pulls the duvet over you. "Don't lay on the floor again, okay? Just ask me to come back."

"I did, you left me anyway." You murmur, a sad look etched on your brows before you sigh into his robe. He stops himself from comforting you, his fingers aching to run through your wild hair and biting back his apology. He sits silently, letting you drift back asleep holding his hip.

He doesn't like wasting the day. He knows he should pry himself away, and pull you out of bed too. He just can't bring himself to disturb your peace that way.

He gives in, his fingers gently stroking your hairline, moving stray hairs off your face. You lean into the warmth of his hand as he moves the hair off your neck, thumbing the shell of your ear carefully before clearing his throat.

"We've got a busy day, Y/N. We need to get up."

His fingers graze your neck softly, before his thumb caresses your jaw. You sigh into the air as you open your eyes, looking up at him. "It's so early." "Early bird gets the worm. You've yet to have breakfast and get dressed. Come on." He's speaking softly, his thumb now tracing circles into your soft cheeks. He can't help it, pinching the fat gently before moving away. Thankfully, you don't question his actions, just sluggishly throw the duvet off your body. He holds up the skirt from before, the ruby red material glittering in the light. "This one, yes? And the pink top? Or the white one?" "What is this, dress-up?" You yawn, and Seungkwan frowns. "Be nice, I made this for you." "Sorry, oh wisest one. Dress me like a doll." You stand and stretch your arms up, and he rolls his eyes as he carefully wraps the skirt around you, feeling your hands on his shoulders as he pins it in place. "Maybe I'll add a little drawstring so it's more secure, hm?" He's speaking to himself, but you nod anyway. "Arms up." He says, before tugging the soft white shirt over your head, carefully slipping your arms through. "There we go. What do you think? Pretty?" He turns you to face the mirror once more, hands on your hips as you sleepily look at yourself. You nod in silence, and he cards his fingers through your hair gently, pulling it back and pulling a piece of white ribbon out of his pocket. He ties the hair back carefully, the ribbon looped into a bow. "So it won't get in the way. Oh, and I'll get started on some shoes for you sometime this week. You'll just be indoors today, so don't worry about getting hurt." You're peering at him through the mirror, your hands folded in front of you as you speak. "Why do you ask if I think the outfit is pretty?" He raises a brow, "Why the question?" "You asked if I think I look pretty. Why does it matter? It's just us." You shrug, the flowing material of the skirt flowing smoothly as you turn to face him. "And it's not like you'd tell a mortal she's pretty, would you?" Seungkwan can feel that same guttural guilt he felt earlier slowly begin to slip away. He couldn't figure you out – you could be so sweet, so flirty and pouty, and then you could be this. Defiant, bratty, argumentative.

"Can't I want to know if you feel good in what I'm making for you? Would you rather I make you wear a sack? Or walk around nude for anyone to see you?" He scoffs, seeing you smile inwardly. "Does anyone involve you?" He doesn't respond, shaking his head as he sinks into his closet.

Yeah. Anyone involves him, and probably just him.

What exactly *is* a Sin Eater? What are the 'Sins' that they 'Eat'? Is it something learned? Is it something you're born as? Does being a Sin Eater mean you are Not Human the same way any other supernatural creatures are(like the vampire and werewolf you mentioned before)?

Also curious about how you're thinking of the Vampires/Werewolves being. For vampires, is it like 'needs to drink blood to survive' or more like 'simply craves it but won't die without it.. just suffer'? For Werewolves, is it a controlled or uncontrolled transformation?

Sorry for so many questions, I am simply very curious about the concept you've shown so far, and am lowkey fascinated by the supernatural >w<

(long post comin lol)

Sin eating is an old practice that did actually exist in our world! They would basically "consume" the sin of someone who had died and absorb it themselves so the deceased could enter into heaven.

In my version, there's 7 sin eaters in the world at any given time (one for each sin). It's like an Avatar situation, where one dies, a new one awakens. They are "chosen" by the sin eaters by committing a horrible crime upon someone else and truly regretting it. For example, Emil (the mc) was chosen after attacking his sister in a fit of jealous rage.

The "sin eaters" are technically these creatures you've probably seen me draw if you've followed me for a while. They take the form of an animal with significant meaning to the chosen child.

They always awaken in children because they seek something pure that has done something terrible enough to essentially give them a window to enter. The creatures are technically the actual "sin eaters" however only the kids can actually see them and the kids basically act as their proxy, so everyone considers the kid the sin eaters. Once they become a sin eater, they have to regularly feed it, or else it takes over.

Because they have to do the sin eating ceremonies whether they like it or not, a philanthropist named Vernon has monetized their services into a lucrative business. He has essentially adopted the kids and gives them a comfortable life in exchange for their services, which rich upper class people utilize to absolve their deceased family of their sins upon passing.

Vernon tries to make their lives as comfortable as possible because it's an otherwise miserable and thankless job for the kids. When they absorb the sin, they see every sin that person has committed and are just generally rejected from society for their sin-eating status. And worst of all, none of them seem to live into adult hood, all seeming to die around the age of 18-19.

As for your other questions, I'm still contemplating the vampire bit more. She's a newer character so I've still got a lot to figure out, but she does at least get treatments from the Sin Eater doctor, Doc Jacques in order to withstand the sun better than the average vampire.

Bernard and the werewolves are a similar case. However, we learn later that Bernard isn't an average werewolf. He can do controlled transformations, thanks to Doc Jacques, but only about once a month. He has more control over it than the average werewolf for reasons that'll be revealed in the story.

Plotting out "Shadow Spirit" (Disney Musical)

Make sure to check out the summary for this and my other stories in my post about the second part of the Resurgence Era. As usual, I may come to edit this later. (And disclaimer: this post is a quick creation that is not the result of years like an actual film would be, and thus may not match the storytelling/music that properly reflects the culture.)

Background

Thanks to the success of "Yaksha," Disney is interested in making another story influenced by Southeast Asia, and eventually a project is proposed based on the puppet theater seen in Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia. Inviting Adele Lim back following her work as a co-writer on "Raya and the Last Dragon," she in turn reaches out to Cherry Chevapravatdumrong, who wrote the film "Joy Ride," which Lim directed, to write the script (I know that's probably not how it works, but ignore the inaccuracy, lol) and Fawn Veerasuthorn serves as head of story. Despite having a director of Malaysian descent and two major crew members involved in the story being of Thai descent, Disney eventually opts to focus the story on Indonesian culture, specifically Javanese. Given that Indonesia is a largely Islamic culture and Islamophobia is a touchy subject in the western world, the team worked to portray Islamic-Indonesian culture as respectfully and accurately as possible (within the constraints of entertainment), though it has been stated that significant influence was taken from the Majapahit era, which was dominated by Hinduism and Buddhism. And while the team brainstormed having a female lead, they wanted to show that a team o women didn't automatically have to be writing a female-driven story (though there were still strong female characters), and opted to make a story with a male lead. Disney hired James Newton Howard once more to conduct the score, with Helen Park and Max Vernon hired to do the songs. Originally, the film had themes of colorism, but test audiences gave mixed feedback on the execution of it, and the subject was dropped. Dallas Liu and Mark-Paul Gosselaar were reportedly the desired characters for the lead, but Gosselaar ended up voicing his father.

Plot

When the world was first created, the divine one created humans in two sets, one to work in the sun, while the other worked at night. However, one day, those who worked at night became envious of those who worked in the day, and a war struck out, creating an eclipse when the counterparts fought. The divine one sided with the sun workers, and defeated the night workers, killing them and reincarnating them as shadows of the sun workers, and the sun workers took the nights off. Centuries later, a darkness covers the land, leading the country to become reliant on fires and artifical light. When a young man discovers a bit of sunlight, he brings it to the kingdom, but it is so strong that it revives the shadows, who go to war with the humans. When the Emperor asks for someone to find a way to end the impending war peacefully, the young man steps forward. But how can you battle someone who knows you inside and out?

Characters

(As usual, this is not a comprehensive list of characters by any stretch of the imagination, but the main players you need to know, in a bare bones format. As such, the songs also reflect this list, likely only making songs for the characters provided. The images below would serve as inspiration for the characters' designs and/or personalities.)

Sukarno--A proud hero, Sukarno volunteers to save the empire from the shadows, even though he has no idea how. Physically fit and with an affinity for the arcane, Sukarno is somewhat cocky and arrogant due to his gifts, believing that he must simply kill the shadows as one kills a person. But this is a complex problem, especially since some of the shadows inhabit the bodies of humans, and their faith points out (something that most people ignore, forget, or don't quite interpret the same way), these shadows are their twins, and thus living creatures themselves. This only complicates things further when Sukarno's own shadow comes alive, but unlike many others, is a friend and ally to him rather than an enemy. He has one blue eyed, influenced by the Buton tribe, and has difficulty hearing at times.

Kirana--A young maiden who is a dhewekan, or a person born without a shadow. Given the rising possibility of war, she grew up under much suspicion, with some suspecting that she is simply a shadow inhabiting a human's body. She is shy and softspoken, and Sukarno thus finds her a good person to join him on his journey, wanting to use her not-often-used charms and skill at political tact. Unlike Sukarno, Kirana is much wiser and in tune with the natural world. Maybe that's why she has a pet panther...

Ananto--The political advisor to the emperor (of course he is), he studied occult arts in order to control the sentient shadows, leading to the world's darkness. He experimented for years, resulting in many kidnappings and deaths, even harming the emperor when attempting to control him via his shadow, leading to him deciding that war was the easier route to go. He serves as a messenger for Sukarno's process and the emperor's wishes, though he often recites it from memory, and has recently decided that he should deliver the "Emperor's" wishes to Sukarno personally. You can always tell he's near by the hiss of his pet blue krait.

Songs

Sundial--The origins of the sun and shadow workers, and the message of the tale being how people have duality, and that no one knows their true self until faced with a significant challenge. Told by shadow puppetry (and the ending possibly does the same, similar to Disney's storybook openings/endings and "Beauty and the Beast" doing stained glass)

Reward--Sukarno witnesses the shadows attacking his village, and ventures to the emperor to see what can be done. However, the emperor is sickly and unable to provide aid, nevermind being at a loss for this supernatural threat, so he requests the aid of a hero, promising him half the kingdom. Sukarno accepts, even as fear and doubt flood his mind, overwhelmed by greed and pride.

I Don't Remember You--Kirana begins to notice something of a change with Sukarno, noting that he begins to show a more goofy personality akin to the personality he attributed to his shadow. Defensive, Sukarno counters that she is equally suspicious for lacking a shadow, and the duo come into conflict over the lack of trust.

Who Can Say--Ananto, who originally seemed to just be a well-meaning but overbearing adviser, is revealed to be a schemer for the throne, often misconstruing the emperor and Sukarno's messages to each other. When Sukarno reveals to the emperor about his shadow twin, Ananto claims that Sukarno has become possessed and is to be put to death, all without the emperor's knowledge.

Miss Me--Sukarno contemplates the life he would've lived if his shadow, who he calls Yangan from the Javanese "wewayangan" or "shadow," and he contemplates his possible future once the war is stopped. Will Yangan no longer be able to communicate with him, and will he realize his feelings for Kirana. It's a trio song, and it's heavily believed that this was originally a solo for Yangan implying he's Sukarno's miscarried twin, but was scrapped for being too dark of a concept.

Reward (Reprise)--With the shadows restored as humans, Sukarno allows for Yangan to take the credit for the solution, as well as their more politically savvy friend who can help the country adjust to their population doubling, deciding to take time to relax, and possibly propose to Kirana.

What kinda pet do you think the main cast would get pets of (if they had to get pets, I personally see them with theese Haley-snake (I think theyed like it because snakes are so cool fr) Ray-fish(it'd probably die because he wasn't bothered to feed it)

Double-a wolf or Pitbull (I bet he'd starve it and train it to eat human flesh so he can just go "sic em" and it'd attack)

That's what I think 🙂 -🐀

-I don't think Haley would have a pet. I think they're responsible enough to know that even "low mantience" pet actually needs a lot of care (if you get a reptile, you'd be know how far away the nearest vet that specializes in exotic pets is from you). With their little, uh... "side hustle" they probably want to have as few loose ends as possible in case they need to book it from the fuzz. As of BSH, I'd argue that Miles is their pet, and every day they're looking for a no-kill shelter to drop him off at.

-I agree with fish for Ray BUT! I think Ray would actually be a great fish keeper. I'm talking like, 200 gallon, full ecosystem tropical tank. No overpopulation, none of that animal abuse you see on TikTok. It's cathartic for him, not just to watch them, not just to learn about them (you know he's on the spectrum, and you know he's gonna be as interested in ichthyology as he is astronomy) but because even though they're trapped just like he is, he can take better care of them than NAHA ever took of him.

-I can imagine Double dreaming of the day he's enough of a mob boss that he can have a mansion with a tiger (maybe even a whole menagerie of exotic animals) but in the meantime, it's either a german shepard or rottweiler. I know pitbulls have a (not unearned, unfortunately) reputation for being vicious killers, but like... have you seen the things they're calling "pitbulls" these days?

I'm absolutely terrified, Vernon. "Sic" is right, but you're missing a letter there, lol.

Everyone knows german shepards are the attack dogs of choice for siccing on people, and maybe this is just a cultural/regional thing, but growing up, everyone in my area of town that had a guard dog had rottweilers (as did my family, but Angel was my dog and while she wasn't making anybody who got too close to our gate piss themselves, she was the sweetest cuddlebug you can imagine). But this is assuming a lack of space. Because if he really wanted to put the fear of god into anyone that crossed him, Double would get himself a kangal shepard. That's not a dog; it's a horse that was bred to kill wolves.

I’d be a big fan of Lily as a character if she was the type of gal who married James purely for practical reasons - he’s a wealthy pureblood and she’s a lower middle class muggleborn in a world that discriminates against her. If fleeing to muggle Australia wasn’t an option, this was second best. Get that bag.

It’s the fact she’s genuinely romantically interested when he’s a sadist violating her supposed friend for sport that makes me side eye her so much lol.

Yes! We support social climbers in here, you go girl

Well, technically, Lily started dating James when he "deflated his head a bit", and she "didn't know much" about James hexing Severus still. But both him stopping hexing people for the fun of it and Jily dating happened, according to Sirius, on the 7th year. Even the naïvest human being who sees the best of the best in everyone wouldn't believe that a guy who hexed anyone who annoyed him out of boredom for 6 years, including tormenting and undressing their once best friend, changed in a couple of month! For me, it seems like Lily wanted to date him for a long time, but waited until he got just barely civil so that both her public image and her consciousness aren't too damaged. And to be clear, we don't control who we're attracted to, but we control whom to date and marry, and which behaviour is justifiable for us. James didn't even apologise from what we know – it wouldn't be any redemption and change even if he stopped hexing Snape.

I might like Lily if on top of her flaws like being a questionable friend for Severus as a teen, when he admittedly also wasn't the epitome of a functional friendship, and choosing to overlook the behaviour of her spouse, she came with some interesting characteristics or positive things she did, but... I can't really think of anything? She died for Harry, but so did a random Muggle woman in DH for her kids from the hands of Voldemort, am I supposed to find her an interesting character and an embodiment of virtue? If Vernon would die when shielding Dudley and Petunia in PS, would that make him a good character? Also she was an Order member, but other then that – I see nothing that would make her likable for me, and reading about someone unironically attracted to the likes of james potter is just too gross to tolerate sorry. like I don't think Lily did anything really morally bad because the person responsible for James' shit is James, but neither do I find any of her actions morally good or exceptional in any way. that's my deal with her.

I'd also maybe like her more if Severus didn't throw his life away for her sake, which is not something she had done personally, but it just feels unfair to me, yk? really dude, risking your life and promising anything was a bit too much to give for the woman who willingly married a person who publically undressed and (to Severus' knowledge) tried to kill you

re: 2023 new releases. hope you're ready for a long message because there were a lot.

hot new releases/things that were relatively popular

He Who Drowned The World, Shelley Parker Chan (Chinese mythological historical, very gay, very stabby a la Baru Cormorant. Book 2 of 2. A particular favorite of mine from this year)

Witch King, Martha Wells (New fantasy book by author of murderbot fame. I didn't actually click with this one but I'd be remiss to leave it off)

House With Good Bones, T Kingfisher (Southern gothic rose horror by the very talented Ursula Vernon)

Translation State, Ann Leckie (high sf alien horror regency romance. Wheeeeee. I had a lot of fun reading this. You can read it as a standalone, but you get deeper context if you've read the ancillary justice series, also highly recommended)

Will of the Many, James Islington (futuristic roman empire aesthetic rigged murder school. Not precisely good but appallingly catchy, I read all six hundred pages in pretty much one sitting. If you liked red rising you'll like this, if you hated red rising you will Not)

OH YEAH THE ACTUAL NEW MURDEBOT NOVEL (System Collapse)

A Power Unbound, Freya Marske (book 3 of 3, magic alt edwardian romances with murder. This is more romance proper but it's about equal with the action plot and Marske is very good. I don't think you've read these so you'd have to start at book 1)

Some Desperate Glory, Emily Tesh (The book that absolutely knocked my socks off, my pick for the best sff release of the year. I forget if I've already told you about this one)

Starling House, Alix Harrow (Southern gothic house drama. Similar feel to Ninth House or The Book of Night)

The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi, Shannon Chakraborty (Divorced lady pirate adventure-drama a la Arabian Nights.)

Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries, Heather Fawcett (Charming, heavily fairy tale trope themed, vaguely reminiscent of the Lady Trent books)

more obscure new releases from this year that I thought were cool, but not in the Hot New Reads You Can't Miss Because Everyone's Read Them category

Under Fortunate Stars, Ren Hutchings (sf timey wimey space shenanigans with aliens. Immensely cool premise.)

Small Miracles, Olivia Atwater (fallen angel sent to tempt a too good mortal. Extremely charming)

The King Is Dead, Naomi Libicki (vaguely persian flavored fealty romance, very heavy to the fealty. Original, thorny, and intriguing)

The Deep Sky, Yume Kitasei (What if we terribly traumatized everyone going on a generation ship by making them go to viciously competitive boarding school together and then act surprised when a murder mystery occurs. Heads up that it's more interested in the human drama than the SF worldbuilding)

The Saint of Bright Doors, Vajra Chandrasekera (early modern fantasy world anti-imperialism fever dream narrated by a cult survivor. Brilliantly written, spectacularly original, one of the best books I read this year)

Things for 2024, content warning for being (obviously) things I haven't read and thus without quality control

The Warm Hands of Ghosts, Katherine Arden

The Familiar, Leigh Bardugo

The Dead Cat Tail Assassins, P Djeli Clark

Long Live Evil, Sarah Rees Brennan

Goddess of the River, Vaishnavi Patel

The Woods All Black, Lee Mandelo

Exordia, Seth Dickinson

A Sorceress Comes To Call, T Kingfisher

Running Close To The Wind, Alexandra Rowland

Wow tumblr just lets me keep writing words. I didn't think they let me have this many in asks. Oh, and pro tip-- keep an eye out for tordotcom's most anticipated upcoming books for the first six months of 2024. They should be publishing it within the next week or so and I always add masses of books to my tbr from there.

oh holy crap, thanks!! I'll have to check these out!

thoughts on a few of em:

He Who Drowned The World - still have to read She Who Became the Sun lol but hopefully I'll get to em next year!

Witch King - Martha Wells has been recced by like All my sci-fi mutuals now lmao I REALLY gotta get into her!

House With Good Bones - THIS ONE IS ACTUALLY ON MY SHELF!! I just didn't fucking read it this year whoops. Very excited for new Kingfisher

Starling House - I was on the fence about this one since I really didn't like Once and Future Witches, but those comparisons give me hope! I'll add it to the library list!

Some Desperate Glory and Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries are 2/3 of the books published in 2023 that I actually managed to read (the 3rd is The Woman in Me lmao), I can't remember if you recc'd Some Desperate Glory, but it was SOOOOOOOO GOOD OMFG

Small Miracles - my aunt has been trying to convince me to read Atwater for quite a while, I'll have to give this one a try!

The Saint of Bright Doors - I have this one on hold!! Saw a post for it a week or so ago and it sounds absolutely delightful!

The Familiar - SO SO EXCITED for this one! I hope Bardugo is maybe...slowly....extricating herself from the Grishaverse and going to write more books not related to it... (not that they're all bad, I loved the Six of Crows duology, I'm just not into it anymore and I reeeealllly like her adult books lol)

Running Close To The Wind - oh yay new Rowland! I still haven't read her last book (the one with the guy on the cover who looked EXACTLY like my boss to the point where it became an Office Meme that [Boss] Is A Gay Romance Cover Model, still meaning to get a UK version of it but haven't yet) but I'll have to look this one up!

[softievante]

🍜 responsability

when mingyu took jun’s place as hansol’s roommate, he had some instructions handed out to him. junhui made sure he knew about hansol’s weird sleeping schedules, his dissociative moments while listening to music, and overall quirky traits like meowing out of nowhere and staring into nothingness for hours, but what jun made sure to highlight among it all was hansol’s complete lack of ability when it came to cooking.

“he’s like a hopeless teenage boy, gyu,” jun had explained during a quick meeting they had to talk about the moving, chatting over coffee and pastries. “if no one’s paying attention, he lives off of bread and jam, you know?”

mingyu, after a sip of his americano, exhaled a light chuckle.

“that’s cute. how old did you say he is again?”

jun tapped at his chin. “he’s a 98, so 24.”

“yeah, should at least know how to fry an egg,” mingyu pondered, “but no problem, i can cook for two, you know i don’t mind.” he shrugged.

“cool. i have a feeling you two will get along,” jun affirmed, intending not only to assure mingyu but himself, since he didn’t want to be the one responsible for putting any of his friends in a bad situation.

“yeah, i’m rooting for it,” mingyu complemented, leaning back on his seat with a dreamy sigh.

turns out junhui was not wrong, but wasn’t totally right. they did get along pretty well, mingyu’s puppy-like personality filling the voids hansol’s cat-like one left, and vice-versa. sometimes, one had more ability to solve a problem, or could take over certain chores better than the other. that balanced out the moments that could be seen as a burden to their newly developed relationship, especially when it came to a topic that was, funnily enough, mentioned in advance: food.

mingyu discovered that, while hansol, if junhui was correct, would survive on bread and butter or something like that, it didn’t mean one. it didn’t mean he ate little. in fact, hansol was actually more akin to a human vacuum when it came to any edible thing available, which started to get on mingyu’s nerves as he never knew how much he should be cooking.

or for how long he should leave his meal out of his watch.

“hansol!” mingyu exclaimed, about to spit a train of curses. he sighed deeply and gestured in the air, “i was gone for two minutes, how the hell did you manage to vanish with my ramyeon?!”

hansol blinked one, two times, slurping the noodles in the process.

“sorry, hyung.” he didn’t look really sorry as he said that, which made mingyu squint his eyes in disbelief. “you left it unsupervised and i thought you could just make more if you really wanted it…”

“unsupervised? i was taking a phone call!” retorted mingyu, forcing his roommate to stop for an instant to think about another reply.

“well, it’d be cold when you got back…”

mingyu exhaled in defeat.

“alright. i’ll just make some more.”

in the middle of bringing more ramen to his lips, hansol stopped, eyes attentive:

“how much more?”

mingyu frowned. “haven’t you eaten your share already?”

“hmm, still hungry.” hansol rubbed his stomach unpretentiously, the loose t-shirt he wore hiding the slight roundness that was already settling on his lower belly.

mingyu gave himself a moment to consider, pondering if the boy was being too greedy or was indeed hungry still.

since he didn’t wanna risk being a prick and had to make a new portion anyway, he decided that adding a bit more wouldn’t hurt.

“ok.”

***

it kept happening. hansol’s never-ending appetite, mingyu’s ever-disposition to feed him. as the time passed, they became more comfortable around each other, their day to day dynamic much better than the beginning weeks of living together. chores were shared, personal space was respected, habits were learned. they functioned like proper roommates nowadays.

one particular thursday, mingyu entered the apartment with two plastic bags hanging from his hand, a paper one under his arm.

“brought takeout. too tired to cook for you today,” he informed, putting them on the dining room table.

hansol’s eyes glistened, a strange and curious feeling shining from them. mingyu was a bit confused, until he realized, “for us. i meant for us,” he corrected himself as he took the containers from the bags.

hansol, however, didn’t seem too affected by it. his hyung had said what he said.

“ah, mingyu hyung,” he purred in the sweetest voice possible as he opened the boxes. “you’re the best, you know?”

mingyu simply smiled, feeling a warm blush creep up his cheeks.

***

considering the basic maths of hansol constantly on the hunt for food, meanwhile mingyu made sure there was plenty available, even when he couldn’t cook himself, in three months there were surely some visible changes, precisely on hansol’s wardrobe and waistline. the loose shirts, shorts and pants weren’t so loose anymore, hugging tighter wherever his new weight settled: his soft, chubby (and adorable, mingyu thought every time a shirt rode up to reveal skin) belly, his squishy cheeks and arms, his supple thighs. no body part escaped from the routine of being pampered by his roommate.

and said roommate… well, mingyu got overwhelmed at first in the face of this new “obligation” he ended up taking responsibility for. from the first month, though, he started seeing as another part of his day, another duty as natural was brushing his teeth in the morning. plus, he did enjoy how much hansol seemed to like his food, as well as he sensed some weird kind of pride in watching him always getting full from it.

(did he dig too deep to understand that? no. would he be confronted with it anyway? sooner than he thought).

that happened when he came home to a sight he didn’t ever dream of, but it certainly seemed to have come out of one.

hansol was sprawled on the sofa, legs opened and body slouched, two hands over his shirtless torso, more exactly running over his distended stomach, which was obviously filled to its maximum.

his sweats no longer needed to have its strings tied, stretched under the curve his belly already made over his lap.

mingyu felt his face heat up. it’d be less embarrassing to have caught him naked, to be honest.

“h-hansol?”

the reply came first as a hiccup.

“yeah?”

mingyu walked with caution into the room, as if one wrong step would make him wake up from that weird dream.

“what did you… what did you do?” he asked, tone not a reprimand, but pure curiosity and… desire? he felt his head spin.

hansol breathed in and out, pressing his fingers on a few tight spots. he seemed to be concentrating on his mission in order to not appear affected by mingyu’s presence. “ate the lasagna you left in the oven… you cooked that for dinner, right?”

“hansol, that was supposed to be our dinner for three days,” mingyu pointed out, his expression communicating the shock that buzzed through his body. he got closer, eager to see hansol better. to touch him. “i thought you’d eat like half of it and leave the rest for the other nights!”

“oh…” hansol’s face was bright red, as red as the tomato sauce around his lips.

before mingyu could stop himself, he asked, “jesus, how did you fit all of that inside?”

another hiccup slipped from hansol’s mouth. this time, mingyu was able to witness how much it made the rolls on his hips and waist jiggle.

“p-practice?” he stuttered, now aware of the interest in the older man’s eyes. he decided to give his inner considerations a shot, “i’m no lightweight, hyung. never have been. dunno why you didn’t seem to believe that.”

mingyu’s eyebrows almost met in confusion.

“what? what do you mean believe?”

hansol made his best to sit straight, the weight of the food a ridiculous obstacle. he felt like he needed fo defend himself, “well, you kept increasing the portion sizes, and bringing more food! it’s like you wanted me to eat!”

mingyu was moving his arms in the air, frantically.

“hansol, what the fuck? i kept making and bringing more food because how else could i keep up with your appetite?!”

“oh.” with his arms behind his back, belly looking even bigger and making mingyu dizzy, hansol looked part cute and part sinful, the puzzled face turning into one of shame. mingyu wanted to bite him. “so it wasn’t like… a challenge or something?”

“what? no! why would i challenge you?”

“i don’t… i don’t know. you seemed happy when i ate. especially when it was something you made, but i figured it was the same when you brought it, too. so i kept trying my best to enjoy,” he justified, speech speed forcing him to stop to breathe. “i mean, clearly that had some consequences, but…” he gestured to his belly, shifting in place to accommodate himself better. it was the first time his gain was being openly acknowledged.

when hansol decided to finally meet mingyu’s eyes, he hiccuped one last time in surprise. no negative emotion laid there. quite the opposite.

“you’re ridiculous,” mingyu sputtered, taking a step closer so they almost touched.

hansol smiled, mischievously.

“hmm, am i?” he laid back again, rubbing his tummy like he was inviting, daring mingyu. “you kept making sure i was stuffed, so i don’t think you’re so innocent.”

“i wasn’t– shut up!” mingyu lost his composure, dropping his knees on the couch and pushing hansol’s arm. “you’re the one who can barely move right now, i wouldn’t be so big-mouthed about this.”

hansol whined.

“hyung.” he grabbed mingyu’s hand, guiding it to his abdomen. “you need to take responsibility for what you’ve done.”

mingyu sighed. big sigh. why fight it?

“you little fucker,” he cursed, grip tigheting on the softness of hansol’s lower belly. “you’re a spoiled brat, that’s what you are.”

“hmm?” hansol hummed, his palm onto mingyu’s knuckles in the intention of guiding his movements.

although mingyu accepted it, he also sat properly, pulled hansol closer to cuddle him and joined with his previous free hand, pinching side rolls just to see hansol yelping.

“keep still. tell me if it hurts,” he ordered, a pang on both his heart and between his legs as hansol sighed, satisfied.

at a certain moment, mingyu had to pinch himself to just to make sure that wasn’t a strange hallucination, especially when hansol’s whines became more of pleasure than of protest. he kept rubbing the space until it was almost completely soft, drinking hansol’s little noises like they were a heavenly beverage.

after a suave nibble on his neck, mingyu inquired, “do you still have room for dessert?”

[onlyseokmins]

started thinking last night about a wonwoo and vernon tagteam and i can’t get rid of it lol. the dynamic would be soooo inchresting and they’d both be so focussed on pleasing you but in totally opposite ways??? on one side you’ve got vernon falling over himself to try and please you and moaning every time he so much as lets go of ur tits long enough for them to bounce while you ride him. and then on the other you’ve got wonwoo bending you in ways the human body should never bend. in half and in half again. because it feels too good to be thrown around by him and even better to have sweetboy vernie kiss it all better when he’s done. like. like I just THINK IT WOULD BE NEAT. - 🍿 x

OH. MY GO.D YEAH IT'S NEAT YOU SAY I THINK SO TOO BUT ALSO IT'D MESSY YUM (also i missed u hope u have been well!)

also the mf-ing contrast of the two!???!?!?!?!?! ur brainnnnnnnn but why am I not being thrown between these two hot men???? like rn????????

omg the immediate thought I had when reading the first sentence gawd was how quiet it would be like okay yeah there’s some dirty talk and a shit ton of lewd noises and moans but they would def be focused on pleasuring you and touching your body in every way, shape, and form bc I think they are the kind of guys who prefer body talk than simply words bc they KNOW wtf they’re doing.

Also, the characters or costumes I mention DO NOT correlate to the boys' personalities and this is all just for some silly Halloween fun! I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE ART, all credit goes to their respective artists!

Jun Phantom of the Opera/Vampires

He's ecstatic when you bring up costumes because he wanted to dress up but didn't know if you'd think of it as something too childish. But past that he doesn't even really know what he wants to be, completely forgetting the actual planning part of Halloween costumes.

Jun isn't one to shove off the idea of going all out for Halloween. Do you want to do historically accurate 1800s vampire? Well goddamnit, let's do it, baby! You wanna dress him up to the nines for a Phantom of the Opera costume? Hell yeah! He will not say no to showing you off or to showing himself off ever! If you focus on all the small details then he's going to praise your hard work and turn it out because we all know he serves cunt on the regular.

Trust~ That y'all are going to look like you are running a freaking red carpet or walking for MiuMiu in Milan or something. Even if you got a really shitty costume Jun would make it look like a photoshoot even if he tries to be funny with it.

Hoshi Tiger and Zookeeper/Cereal Mascots

I know I know... a little on the nose but can you blame me! It's literally his whole brand people! And I don't see him really wanting to dress up unless it is something related to his interests and personality, to be honest. He finds it a bit... silly- BEFORE YOU COME AT ME THOUGH, we have to remember that when the camera is off Soonyoung is actually quite introverted and quiet. Like my dude is pretty emotionless unless he's doing a bit, 3rd to Vernon and Minghao, low-key.

His reaction to you wanting to dress up would be a little something like, "I mean... Sure. If you want to, baby. ఇ ◝‿◜ ఇ". He's neither here nor there about it but he also isn't going to help much in the helping department either... and if we're being so real- His options if he could choose would be crazy without your help. I'm talking full fursuit with his human eyes visible or putting a damn cereal box on his head for the bit.

Agrees (reluctantly) with your picks.

(Why was it actually the hardest to find a good pick for a tiger costume on Pinterest? The closest I could get was this anime boy, just imagine that but simply more)

Wonwoo The Other Parents/American Psycho/LOTR

I hold a heavy belief that being an idol is holding Wonwoo back from true nerddom and that this man would 1000% be the hottest cosplayer of all time... that being said, I am surprisingly not going to give him any anime or video game costumes simply because we all know he would rock that shit.

Another heavy fantasy of mine is that Wonwoo totally has an alternative partner, I'm talking big into horror and alt fashion (ie. gothic fashion, grunge, etc.) So it would not at all come as a surprise to him when you suggest going as the other parents from Coraline or convince him to be the Patrick Bateman to your Evelyn Williams/Jean/Paul Allen. Another strong contender was him as Aragorn because he totally has Viggo Mortensen's smile, also imagine how cute you would be as Arwen!! Or just an elf in general lol

Woozi X-men/Teen Titans

You would think that Woozi wouldn't be into it... but I think he's super down if you're super down, honestly. This man tries to be soooo nonchalant but in reality he goes the extra mile for you and even enjoys doing it! Dare I say he would even do his own research to get you guys some good-quality costumes? I do dare because guess what? He absolutely would! He wants you guys to look the part and be comfortable doing it.

But! He is only passionate when it is a costume idea he is interested in... and thus when you bring up superheroes! Oh boy... yeah he's in.

Listen, I try not to hark on Woozi's height because he's my bias and it really doesn't matter but in this case, I just cannot get the fact out of my head that canon comic Wolverine is actually shorter than our Jihoon. My man would pull that off soooo well, especially because he's built like a semi-truck and we all know it! Plus I just love the idea of you going as literally any other X-men character because Logan is shipped with everyone lmao. And also, just to drop this because it's brain rotting me... Beast Boy and Raven (possibly gender-bent)

A/N: I'm not going to lie... I fucking love what I chose for the 96 line. My favorites go out to Wonwoo and Woozi though for what I would actually consider going as for Halloween lol. Who would you want to go with so far based on costumes?
