[hughesgarnet]

my cat Oscar and my mini library

09/24/24 UPDATE: i rearranged my upper shelf to display ALL of my series to accommodate the arrival of my Indigo mood lamp 💙

[ivppiter-06]

So i very recently i started to stan BTS and i just wondered what hogwarts houses people believe they are in and i noticed that everyone always say Yoongi is a Slytherin. And hear me out, i can't be the only one who believes that Min Yoongi is clearly a Hufflepuff

Found that edit on interest, credits to whoever made it Like i Know we all have that idea that slytherins are "cold" and serious people (wich is how a lot of people perciebe yoongi, i am not saying that it´s true), but just look at this man, he is the personification of a Hufflepuff Lets take a look of the traits of that hous, shall we?

𝑳𝒐𝒚𝒂𝒍𝒕𝒚

He keeps supporting all of his members, giving them advice and trying to keep them calm and on the right place Example: All the members were invited to SUCHWITA so they could talk about their new music

And like one of the most heartbreaking moments, but most important for this point: how he just bows at his parents when he felt that "the could be proud of him" even if they didn't supported him (wich is another whole topic)

𝑷𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆

We know that he doesn't really like being the center of atencion, or loud noises, or physical touch and yet he just let the band members do ANYTHING to him and my bro just sits there and smiles

𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒅 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒌.

I don´t think this needs explanation. He worked his ass off to be where he is now, before and during bangtan

That's it, thank you for coming to my ted talk, drink water and stan Hufflepuff Yoongi

Fan-Chosen BTS fics #4 - April 2024 - Day 5

ink & mint chocolate

AO3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/29105748/chapters/71447265

Author: annangst

Rating: Mature

Relationships: Jeon Jungkook/Kim Taehyung

Status: Completed

Chapters: 23/23 (88004 words)

Tags: Harry Potter AU

Summary:

Jungkook did turn his head ever so slightly right before putting his mouth on the bottle. For a split second, there was this look; the curiosity and bewilderment, except this time there was some sort of determination mixed into it, too.

Taehyung didn’t notice it, not at the time.

Jungkook took two long sips.

This kind of thing is easily answered with the works search. It's only annoying if you want a bunch of different data for a chart. Currently, the works with >1000 comments number:

17,026

On a different note, IDK a good way to see a list of fandoms from works search, but if you go to a huge tag like m/m, you can put in a comments range and still get the sidebars. Out of m/m fic on AO3, the ones with >100 comments show:

Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling (10841)

방탄소년단 | Bangtan Boys | BTS (10022)

Marvel Cinematic Universe (8870)

僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia (Anime & Manga) (8836)

The Avengers (Marvel Movies) (7753)

Supernatural (TV 2005) (6675)

Teen Wolf (TV) (6184)

魔道祖师 - 墨香铜臭 | Módào Zǔshī - Mòxiāng Tóngxiù (5331)

Captain America (Movies) (5248)

Sherlock (TV) (4886)

And if you exclude those:

Haikyuu!! (3306)

Good Omens (TV) (3275)

Voltron: Legendary Defender (3155)

Star Wars - All Media Types (2770)

Yuri!!! on Ice (Anime) (2746)

One Direction (Band) (2665)

Stranger Things (TV 2016) (2530)

Naruto (Anime & Manga) (2441)

Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett (2380)

Shingeki no Kyojin | Attack on Titan (2001)

So about what you'd expect, really. Big, big fandoms and ones that have been active while AO3 has been popular. No doubt if I repeated this for some other category or rating or other big tag, you'd get a similar story: big-ass, currently-active fandoms. Searching for >1000 comments instead of >100 gets similar results, just with fandoms reordered slightly.

They cross paths a lot, but usually, they don't interact much. They don't mind; neither of them is particularly interested in getting to know the other.

Bend & *Snap* [text, audio] (Stranger Things (TV 2016)) written by artaxlivs, performed by steddiestories Summary: UPS guy is pretty, for sure, those lips, that square jaw? Eddie dreams about sitting on his face, honestly. But it’s not like the cardboard-brown uniform is given away any secrets beyond well toned arms and thick thighs. Oh, man, his thighs? Fuck, Eddie has to force himself not to stare as those little brown shorts ride up on hairy thighs when the guy squats to pick up a box.

on monsters (Star Wars Prequel Trilogy) written by cabezadeperro, performed by korechthonia Summary: Obi-Wan was trained on the finding and killing on monsters. Experience has taught him that the former is always much easier than the latter.

Smol Snippet for Chapter 93

Author's Note: OK I am nowhere near done but here are some smol snippets of scenes I'm working on for the next chapter :) things are subject to change but just to hold ya. Again sorry for taking so long! I have a few more events to go to that I'm excited about and going back to work soon since my vacation is almost done! So continue to bear with me as I continue to plan for the outings and work on the chapter.

-----

The start of the silly airport outfits

"I cannot believe this…" Jennie grumbled with her arms crossed as she sat in the van with the members, on their way to the airport.

She had her fair share of goofy moments but this right here was currently number one. The boys were struggling not to laugh as they snuck glances at her wearing a large Pikachu Onesie. The reason? Losing a bet with Jungkook on who could beat who in Smash Bros, last night. She tried her hardest but he prevailed in a best out of 5.

"You look adorable," Jungkook giggled.

"Be quiet," she snapped at him in a playful tone, earning another giggle from him. "I can't believe I have to walk out in public with this on. Why? You know Dispatch is going to be there taking photos."

"You did bring it on yourself. You should have beat him in the game," Yoongi chuckled.

"Wow." she shook her head. "I am loving the support, right now,"

Bangtan had some fan events in Japan just before their 3rd Muster in Seoul and were headed to the airport to get on their flight. Once they arrived at the airport, fans and reporters were already there to take videos and photos. Jennie watched as the members and staff made their way out of the vehicle as she tried to mentally prepare herself to be seen with the onesie.

About to get out of the car, Jin turned back to Jennie and chuckled. "Are you coming?"

Seated next to him by the window, she groaned. "Yes…"

With a smile, Jin helped her out of the car and surprised sounds from the crowd were heard when they saw her in the onesie, along with giggling and various comments on how cute she looked. Being a good sport, Jennie grinned and waved at the camera, walking inside the airport with everyone else.

She laughed, forgetting about the embarrassment, and began to pose, with the members. Miss Bangtan even started playing the part of Pikachu, while reporters ate it up. After photos, the group started going to the destination of where their flight was as the large group of fans and reporters followed them.

"Jennie-ah, why are you wearing a Pikachu onesie?" she heard a fan ask who was recording her with their phone.

"I lost a video game bet," she grinned sheepishly, earning giggles in response.

---------

You took the test!?

For this, I decided to go by RM's fan sign answer about which house the BTS members would be in! :)

As they walked further into the park at Universal Japan, Jennie began to hear the Harry Potter theme song, taking her by surprise.

"Wait a damn minute…are we-are we going to Harry Potter World!?" she exclaimed. Once she turned to Jungkook and saw him grinning, she jumped and squealed excitedly. "What!? Oh my gosh! Wait, you took the test!?"

"I did. I'm a Ravenclaw,"

"Ahhhh! Oh my gosh! It suits you! So much to do! Okay! We gotta get wands! We gotta do the whole thing. We gotta go on the rides, we gotta get butterbeer, get the outfits, everything! You ready?" she giggled excitedly as he smiled, thinking it was the cutest thing.

"Lead the way,"

"That's the spirit!" she grabbed his hand as they wandered around.

Jungkook continued to film her while she looked around the area in awe, happily watching her geek out.

"Ah~! It's just like the movies! I feel like I'm actually in the movies!" she beamed.

----

When he bakes for you on your birthday

"I made something for you," Jungkook said as they sat on the couch of her hotel suite.

"Oh? What is it?" Jennie looked on in anticipation.

"Close your eyes, first,"

"Okay," she closed her eyes with a smile, awaiting the surprise.

Getting up from the couch, Jungkook made his way to the fridge to grab the mini red velvet cake that he had made for her earlier today. Despite the constant teasing from Jimin and Taehyung on whether he knew what he was doing, the cake turned out quite well. Jungkook wanted to make her birthday as special as it could be and he always wanted to bake for her just like she did for him and the rest of the members. After grabbing a few paper plates, plastic forks, and a plastic knife, Jungkook set everything down on the table in front of the couch as Jennie continued to wait patiently.

After placing a 1 candle and a 9 candle on the cutely decorated cake he presented it to her with a smile.

"Open," he softly said.

Opening her eyes, she looked at the cake in awe, covering her mouth. She glanced up at him, back at the cake, and then back at him, uncovering her mouth to reveal a smile.

"What? You baked for me?" she let out a giggle.

"You bake for everyone. I wanted this birthday to be special so I decided to try to make you something,"

"Jungkook, today has been way more than special. This is so sweet, thank you. It smells good. And it looks good."

-------

Being secure in our feelings

"Ah, I'm so spoiled. Today has been magical! Like, look at this! I don't even know where to start for the gifts," Jennie said, looking at all the gifts scattered around from friends and family.

"Do you want to open your gifts now or see your last gift of the evening?" Jungkook asked.

"Last gift?" she looked at him curiously.

He smiled softly and nodded.

The curiosity took over her. "Show me the last gift,"

"Follow me," he grabbed her hand and led her to the bedroom door.

Once he opened it, they walked in and saw that the room was decorated romantically. Cute electric candles lit up the room along with rose petals scattered around the floor and bed.

She gasped lightly as her heart fluttered. "Jungkook…"

After closing the door, he gazed her at while she stood in front of him, looking around in awe. Slowly walking over to her from behind, he watched as she turned around and they both smiled at each other. No words needed to be said. They both knew they wanted this and felt secure in their feelings.

[peachjagiya]

hi peach...

i don't know if you've heard about the scandals with deepfake porn in sk, which is really just a tip of the iceberg of many things. the state of things are horrible for women. the male population are pretty much horrible, and i know that is a generalizing statement but the statistics agree. womens position in korean society is seriously not good. and i don't want to make this about myself. but i don't know how i can continue to support bts. yes, on one hand, there is nothing that shows that these men are like that, and most things show that they are good people. and i would never even think these things about them if it werent for the things i have read. but they are also very protected, and are meant to be portrayed in positive light. i just mean, even though i feel that i can trust them, i also can't? but i don't want to judge them for things they haven't done. i don't know why i am sending this to you, i know you probably don't have the answers. but i like reading your blog and i am especially invested in tk even though i like all of bangtan. i know that we know very little. it just scares me. i know that i have to accept that we can not know for sure, but how do i continue to support them then? but my life would feel so empty without them, i don't think i could stop supporting them either because my heart does not believe these things about them. i just don't know how to justify it to myself when i read about these women suffering, i want to help and support them and if supporting male idols isn't then... i don't know. i know i probably shouldn't invest so much in these artists that i don't know, but i can't help it... if something ever came out about them, i don't think i could take it.. what are your thoughts on this, and maybe your followers too? thank you

<3

I am so sorry this has affected you this way. I think your concerns are valid - ultimately we shouldn't be placing any person we don't personally know on a pedestal, man nor woman.

The first thing my wife said to me when I said I was getting Tae tattooed on my arm was "What if he turns out to be a bad person?" and I did have a think about it. Like all I actually know him is what I value in him. That stuff isn't for nothing. I think it's very human to gravitate towards traits in people that feel familiar, help you feel seen, make you feel good, give you that dopamine. But you do need to consider there's always a possibility.

(In the end I decided to go ahead with tattoo anyway. It's not photorealistic, it's a photoshoot that represents something I've been into a lot longer than BTS, etc)

The advice I have is make their humanity your baseline. My baby army observation is that we're not very good at treating these guys like humans even when they haven't done anything wrong. We expect perfection, we expect they share their whole brain with us, we expect a lot from them that is highly unreasonable to expect.

Accepting they're human as a baseline means you're less surprised when they behave like humans who make mistakes, who are flawed and imperfect, who probably have darkness in them like everyone does. And if they should have committed a crime you find abhorrent, you're not losing the idol love of your life.. you're cutting loose a human.

Of course this is easier said than done. I fully admit BTS, especially TKK, are a huge source of dopamine for my depressed ass. If I had to cut them off for any reason, it would suck! I would be so sad. That feeling is ok too.

Think about JK R0wling. Nearly every single queer I know personally was once a Harry Potter OBSESSIVE. I know about eight lesbians with a Deathly Hallows tattoo. And she has let our community down. She has gone all in on a hate campaign against us to the point where I have gently held my gender questioning child, with a non-binary mama, by the shoulders in a shop and explained softly that I would never be buying him Harry Potter pyjamas he wanted because "the person who created this is an open and active bully." And do you know what? It's fine. My son is fine. I am fine.

If I said to the much younger Peach who idolised her that one day the sight of her would make us feel sick, much younger Peach would have been devastated and disbelieving. But you know what? It has been remarkably easy to get over it. My life is actually missing nothing as a result of getting rid of a deeply abhorrent author who was once my world.

All eight lesbians have got or are in the process of getting them covered or removed. And they're fine too.

So that's what if they HAD done something.

But the thing to remember... is that they haven't. And it's still ok to enjoy them right now! This Yoongi situation probably hasn't helped because I think I'm feeling overanxious about stuff like this too. You can only act on facts though. Half the criticism they receive online is just people making stuff up.

The Nth room stuff was wrapped up in 2020. They weren't on lists then. The new Telegram stuff is an ongoing investigation. They have not been arrested. This doesn't mean there's no way BTS have ever been involved. It just means based on the facts, we have nothing untoward to go on.

If "protected" is an indicator of maybe there's shady dealings going on, then every film, every piece of music, every TV show, every book has a connection to shady stuff. Art exists to get us through hard times, not to make things worse. That's why it sucks so much when artists DO let us down. Because they take away a piece of something we need to be happy. Music, art, film, literature.

You can't live like that, anon. You're doing the right thing by educating yourself, by believing victims, by being appalled by this. I know many people who simply don't become so affected by this stuff that they even think about it beyond the article they read and a few more who would laugh it off. You are on the right side of history. Think what your care means to people who've been abused. In a world where people do not listen to women, you're saying you hear them and you see them. That does actually mean something.

But please protect your spirit - you need to be able to sing, and look at pictures and watch films. You're not doing the wrong thing to still enjoy things right now when the world is in the dumpster. There's nothing to suggest BTS have been involved... so stick with facts.

Anxiety is ruling our collective mind at the moment, I think, and though she's helpful in small doses, Anxiety is a bitch in big doses. Letting Joy take control is not naivete. It's strength.

I don't know who you are but I am sending you so much love, anon.
