Listen I love Kamui Blues and your other fics so much you don’t understand

I love them

I try to keep looking for similar ones but by now I have resigned myself to the fact that there aren’t many fics like that

So I just keep re reading your fics. Sending lots of love and appreciation that you decided to write something this amazing and shared it with us.

Thank you <3333 imo there’s lots of amazing kkob/nart fics out there but I guess authors have different styles and mine just works for you, which is lovely to hear :3

Robo i miss my male wife (Nightowl)

In order to fill my void, what would the Blooming panic Ll’s do when they miss there partner 🥹

dw since I'm in charge of the askbox rn Robo can't put him down we're safe here

Quest will acutely feel those hiccups that happen when there's a sudden void in your daily routine. Putting the second mug back in the cabinet, automatically adjusting to your presence on the couch– or if you haven't met yet, checking the chat client when you're usually online. He's used to loneliness but this is a new one, and he just sort of rides it out, waiting until the day your side of the bed is warm again. If you're married he twists the ring on his finger and stares at nothing in particular for a spell, then sends you a text to let you know he's thinking of you.

Nightowl is the opposite– too much love and energy and nowhere to put them will make him a little chaotic. He makes an attempt to do the things he doesn't get to do as much as when he was solo: takeout joints only he likes, spending way too long shopping for new jewelry, sitting out in the cold and doing studies of interesting buildings. When that doesn't work he sends you a message or six, probably including a pitiful selfie and/or a photo of what you're missing. He counts down the hours on the watch or the days on the calendar and dreams up the ways he'll welcome you back on your return, over and over and over again.

Xyx would send a couple goofy pictures of him or Cat; depending on how far along you are in the relationship, he'll either tell you to hurry up or just say "come home soon, love". He finds things to fill his time– might as well get all his work done now, means more time with you when you return– and when all that is done or stops distracting him, he makes a reservation for something he knows you'll like. Then, he reads, and tries to sink into the book before he can sink into unproductive thoughts. You'll be back. It'll be alright.

Toasty acts a bit like they're used to, falling into their routine before meeting you. More gaming, more browsing, begrudgingly moving their cups and plates to the kitchen. This time, though, they look out the window more, check their phone, drum their fingers on the desk. If you can't call, he plays a video just to hear your voice, then gets a little embarrassed.

LET MEEH BOOP YAAAAAA

Back to you 20× >:33

I really really love the compositions/character moments and color choices of your blue period logs!! Do you just get inspired to draw certain types of images or do you go through some sort of brainstorm process?

thank you! im glad you enjoyed them.

i think i can divide my bp drawings into roughly two categories, one is where i just wanna see them in candid situations (usually with photo ref since i enjoy doing photo studies) and the other is me trying to capture their feelings, the latter i often use other paintings/sculptures etc i like as reference. i'll show you some side by side comparison

as for idea wise i just draw what i like

How do you think Velvet flirts with Coco?

This is one of the funniest asks I ever got and im glad cause this is just gold. Like how does the Bun™️ woo her stupid bozo??
————


I have my biased takes on what Coco and Velvet are like as characters, but to start off I wanna focus on what Vel brings to the table.

I think a lot of people have moe’d her down to a nervous/scaredy bunny girl and…that’s not her at all. She’s a real multilayered character who can and will kick your ass flat. She’s also…

- very very attentive to people

- excellent at memorizing things she sees and hears, and quickly at that

- very emotionally in tune with people, herself included

- insanely kind and helpful

- honest about her feelings and will voice her thoughts when ready

Also she’s a bunny like come on. Is baby. It’s impossible to not find her likable.

I can go on forever, but I think these are enough likable traits to work with.


Time to shift. Now we focus on what I think Coco likes in a person:

- Hot girls

- Complexity

- Someone true to their nature

- Some sense of honor

- Someone striving to learn and to better themselves

Hopefully it’s not lost here, but there’s some compatibility don’t you think? Velvet’s got some of those traits that Coco likes.

————

So where’s the flirting? It’s coming I swear, I just needed the background info to help support the answers.

Bun bun flirts two ways: intentionally and unintentionally. The latter is usually what’s happening most often.

Her intentional flirting is what you would expect. Some cheeky words, being a playful tease in her actions like when she flashed her camera in After the Fall. I think she would 1000% take advantage of her physique and incredibly vast skillsets. She is totally totally showing off during training and sparring. Coco might hide her gaze under her glasses but that dumb bitch is so easy. So so easy…

Now her unintentional flirting is basically that Velvet is just doing her thing. She’s comfortable and loved by her team. With them she’s able to be herself and have fun, and that’s what coco loves most. Seeing Velvet thrive and not feel like she has to hide herself away from the world, and with it comes moments and actions that make Coco, much to her surprise, fall for Velvet.

I guess simply put, Velvet flirts by being her cheeky self around Coco, and her leader falls for her every time.

oh my god i forgot to post it

Somewhere around the end of October I drew Mr. Grimshaw!

I just recently realized that I drew his tattoos wrong! They were supposed to be on his shoulders, but INSTEAD I drew space on his forearms😭

but hey these are still my first attempts to draw him. before this I only had.. uh.. 2 doodles with him

Inspiration:

I recently tried to read his lore

I don't know much yet, but he looks cool. "not a good person, but not a bad father" lol

I hope I won't find any serious pitfalls in his backstory. Although... to be honest, I haven't seen any posts with his backstory yet. But I'm interested to know it!

[butter--peanut]

With all due respect... WHAT THE ABSOLUTE FUCK?!?!

I'm currently reading Kamui Blue and so far screaming is not enough, I need to explode.

1000/10, love the way you write the stories!!! I absolutely love New recruit!!! May I print them for my self in a book form??? These are absolute gems and have become one of my favorite stories!!! 😍😍

Eeep sorry for the late response but please don’t doubt this ask gives me life, yes of course, bookmake away!!

I need......xyx.......crumbs .. . PLEASE

here's smth I wrote for the bp server a couple years back (jesus) when I played a game of Saw with them (they were great sports about it)

When Xyx drove you out for a 'romantic weekend getaway', you knew there would be some sort of twist– there always was– but as you peer at the massive cliff looming overhead, you start to wonder if you'd live to see the romance part of the trip.

"Having second thoughts?" Xyx pops up from the pile of equipment in the back of the car behind you, flashing you a razor grin. "Too late to back out now. I've got the car keys."

"Ha ha…Me, chicken? Never."

You had hoped that engaging in his banter would keep him satisfied, but your anxiety is too transparent to make the lie stick. Xyx frowns and sets down the equipment. "Hey, love. If you're unsure, we can always do something else. I won't be offended."

"No, no! I'm just– having some jitters."

His eyes search yours for a moment, and the silence hangs heavily between you, until Xyx finally sighs and leans forward to kiss your forehead.

"Alright, if you insist. Let's get you suited up, then." He gives one of the harnesses an appraising look before handing it to you. "Step into the loops and pull them up. We'll tighten everything once you've got it on."

You stare at the pile of straps and loops, turning it over in your hands to puzzle out where your legs go; in turn, Xyx sees your predicament and bursts into laughter.

"Aw, doll, I didn't mean to stump you. Might have to start, though," he smirks. "You're adorable when you make that face."

You huff as he takes the harness from your hands, obediently stepping in with his guidance despite your scowl. "Adorable?!" 

"Well…" You watch his hands shift the loops around your thighs, and gasp when they linger and squeeze. "Actually, for this particular moment, I don't think I would use that word."

"Y-you sure you still want to go rock climbing?"

"Mm. Yes. But I think we may have to change our plans afterward." He gives the harness–and your thighs– one more squeeze. "Be a doll and stay still for just one more minute, would you? I have to tie you in." 

Xyx turns back to the equipment, retrieving a length of climbing rope that he gathers loosely in his hands. His face moves tauntingly close to yours as he reaches for your waist, loops the rope, and sets to tying a complex knot with ease; you can count the freckles on his face at this distance, and start doing so in order to keep your focus from slipping. Instead, it's reminding you of how easily you could kiss him right now, how if you tipped forward just enough–

He gives the knot a final, decisive tug, savoring your reaction as you're jolted back to reality (and pulled closer by the hips). "Now, just one more thing."

"Huh?" 

Closing the distance you had just been mourning, Xyx leads you in by the jaw and meets your lips in a slow, deep, kiss. You instinctively tilt your head; he replies with a pleased hum that rumbles through your head and down your spine. His hand caresses your cheek when it finally, reluctantly withdraws along with his face.

"For luck," he breathes.

You can scarcely breathe yourself, but with Xyx so close to you, looking at you so playfully and yet so helplessly in love, you imagine that the luck he's given you could take you anywhere.

“Now,” he says, taking your hand in his, “let’s go exploring.”

[boiling-potato]

anons correct your a dork pathetic piece of waste of oxygen 🥺🥺🥺 maybe you should end it all lol

That insult is such a dead giveaway. Now I'm pretty sure you're that same anon from that mukbang ask and I know who you are :))

Man, what an amazing insult you have there anon "your fat, now die." You just made it so painfully obvious that you're trying so hard to be as annoying as possible just to get a reaction out of me.

Also, I'm actually really flattered you think I have a fat ass anon since I'm flat as a chopping board. Seriously, that comment made me blush (⁠｡⁠・⁠/⁠/⁠ε⁠/⁠/⁠・⁠｡⁠)

POKEMON SV MENTIONED.... TURNING MY SWITCH ON RN

YIPPEE YIPPEE

[ywraa]

Reading the ignaz semmelweis wiki to see if there any parallel to senmelweis r1999 (I have no clue what im doing)

[hallowpen]

Do you have any theories already, based on the Vampire Project trailer?

A couple. The main one being that I don't think Ramil's (Boun) mind control is going to work on Punn (Prem). Otherwise, why not just compel him to forget everything he's seen. He's staying with them for a reason, I just....don't know what that reason is *shakes fist*. The whole scene where Mekhin (Mix) is showing his power via the dead rose coming back to life had Punn asking, "What about him(Ramil)?" And then Ciar's (Santa) little smirk implied to me that Ramil could not demonstrate his ability on Punn. OR I could be really reaching here, it wouldn't be the first time hehehe.

I have yet to see any fangs🤔 (I checked the scene where Ramil hisses at Punn, no fangs) but I remain hopeful that Boun Ramil will get to bite Prem's Punn's neck. More than once, if we're lucky. And it will be glorious!

By Thai BL standards, the vfx look very promising and that makes me excited.

All in all, I trust in Boun (and Prem) to deliver a great series. This is his baby, and we're all along for the ride.

[bp-zb1fics]

which zb1 member would be which Disney prince,, I'm curious 🎤

Not cherrie giving me the best questions to answer 💜💜💜 when it’s literally 6am and my insomnia won’t leave me alone 😭

On principle, I find Disney’s portrayal of the princes as very shallow and gender-norm enforcing (i’m sorry I feel very strongly abt this😅) we are not fans so instead I’d probably go for what Disney princess movie fits the vibe of which member when I assign them to princes. I’m also going to be rewriting that movie as I go, sorry in advance to the purists

Pls note I’ve not great at headcanons and indecisive as hell so here we go ~

Jiwoong: The Beast/Prince Adam

If this man could play a Prince in a drama, this is the kind of content I’d pay for

Just like my hogwarts headcanon, man probably invited the sorceress to dinner and asked to be turned into a beast because everyone just liked his face

And he thought he’d be better off if someone liked his personality

Yes he asks for his servants to be turned into furniture for shit and giggles but not like permanently, maybe they all go back to normal at night

reader wonders why he always insist not that they don’t go to the west wing at night. It’s not just the rose but that’s where he and the servants go to like chill and be their human selves (this is getting a little Cupid and psyche lol)

Hao: Prince Eric (The Little Mermaid)

Just the scene of him playing his violin and mer reader listening from a distance

Sometimes they sing along while Hao is playing and Hao is like woah who dat

They probably met as kids and he gave mer reader his old violin because they were curious

Definitely have it displayed in the center of their collection

Wants to be human to hear Hao play more

Hanbin: Prince Charming (Cinderella)

If this man isn’t Prince Charming, idk who is, do not argue with me

Does not have a shoe fetish

Definitely remembers reader’s face, he just wants to return their shoe bruh

And maybe ask reader out idk, not marry them right away

Just imagine dancing with Hanbin to “So this is love” and tell me u aren’t soft

Matthew: Aladdin

For the record, the genie in that lamp would probably be Keita bc he’s been training for 10,000 years (jk)

Watch me cast the whole KTL team (except Hao idk unless we want crossover)

There’s Matthew and there’s Seok Woohyun, don’t tell me he doesn’t think those are two diff people

Just…Matthew singing a Whole New World is a song cover I didn’t think I needed until now pls and thanks

Taerae: Snow White’s Prince

For all the OG Disney fans, you know that one scene where Snow White’s singing by the well and the Prince fucking jump scares her by singing back

Yes that’s Taerae, man will take the opportunity and he has a guitar

yes he will bring the guitar

Once again watch me cast all the Wake One trainees (K+ G) and Junhyeon as the seven dwarves friends who help reader out

Ricky: Prince Naveen (Princess and the Frog)

I’m sorry my eternal headcanon is spoiled Prince Ricky and reader who puts him in his place

Would probably be a bit more sus of this voodoo man turning him into a frog

It’s probably not even a villain, it’s one of the Yuehuaz who happens to know voodoo being like oh you know what would be rlly fucking funny

He gets his whole character development arc and becomes a better young and rich, tall and handsome Prince that’s totally down bad for reader

Gyuvin: Flynn Rider (Rapunzel’s Tangled)

This man steals hearts everywhere he goes (I mean he won every challenge yo)

A lot goofy like they told him during the sleepover, he’s lucky he’s got a nice face

I haven’t got that much for this one

But energy is the same

Gunwook: Captain Shang (Mulan)

He is a leader (class pres/vice pres every year anyone?)

Dude literally takes forever to realize that reader isn’t supposed to be there (literally the en garde hidden cam)

Casting the three other Jellyfish trainees as the soldiers yo

He’s slay “Be a Man” even if I dislike the title of that song, it’s hella catchy

Yujin: Prince Philip (Sleeping Beauty)

He’s a baby YALL pls

Shy, literally just watching reader do their thing in the forest like how this boi literally watched taerae the whole signal song filming (pls see zb1’s bp commentary for red)

He’s not slaying dragons just yet but he be slaying my heart with Noona saranghaeyo

Gives reader an innocent lil peck and they wake up

Maybe it isn’t true loves kiss just yet, more like boy with pure intentions bc literally that’s equally hard to find

Ok thanks for coming to my TED talk and thanks cherrie for this very lovely question. Y’all need to keep asking me more stuff like that very much please and thanks in advance 💜💜💜

HII!! What is a flower you associate with each of the components from the sunflower trio??

And as a group too!

I think they fit the lily of the valley very well, it's pale and beautiful and it's said to ward off evil spirits

Example: akane hates supernaturals, teru exorcises them and aoi was dragged away from them

(far shore war flashbacks)

Oh also it's poisonous as well sooo-

Well tell me what you think!! ^^

Ooooh warding off evil for the trio is so cool! I looked up and the lily of the valley's poison can be used for healing too, the duality of it fits the trio vibes really well to me! My very helpful very awful trio <3

I don't have a flower I associate with the three as a whole, except the titular sunflower, but I do have some for them as individuals!

For Teru it's dandelions.

Dandelions are hard to explain why I relate it to him, but I'll try: They are called 'dente de leão' in Brazil, which means 'lion's teeth' and are classified as a weed but are very loved for a weed, there is even a saying that "if you make a wish and blow off all of the dandelion puffs, your wish will come true." The childish nature of it, the association with a predator, the way every kid I knew always lit up when they saw it, the way they are so easy to be damaged but impossible to get rid off. It's very Teru to me.

For Akane it's red roses and orange lilies.

Red Roses cause they are heavily associated with romance and passion, and he is an old-fashioned loverboy to me. Put his whole heart into everything.

Orange Lilies cause they are orange like my boy! But also cause they are related to enthusiasm, job, and love for life.

Just look at what Google tells me! Is very Akane to me

Pride, hatred, and contempt are the negative associations of orange lilies, which I think fits him too. The boy is so prideful he goes straight into arrogance.

Aoi is bellflowers and yellow roses.

Bellflowers are purple like her and very beautiful, truly stunning flowers! Their meaning is cute too: everlasting love, and affection, some even relate the flower to Venus, the goddess of beauty and love. It fits her image and the sweeter parts of her character.

Yellow Roses can mean joy or jealousy, and it is hard to know the intent behind it when you're given one. It's a rose associated with friendship which sounds weird since Bellflowers is 'everlasting love' but I swear she is both. She is far less scared of friendship than romance.

Her yellow rose definitively has thorns.
