💘 Is it easier to write angst or fluff?

💛 What is the most impactful lesson you’ve learned about writing?

🎨 If someone were to make fanart of your work, what fic or scene would you hope to see?

💘 At first it fluctuated with how I was doing. When I met @edaworks I recognized I was not in the headspace for some of the really emotionally charged stuff that happens before the gang returns to Sanctuary. Because I was doing much better in comparison. Now I'm better able to separate my characters from me. I'm able to dissect the parts of my psychology I want to and graft them onto the characters without having to inhabit the headspace/mood as though I was an actor. Writing upset Olivia still kills me though - I want her to do better, mentally, but it'll take her time. She'll get there.

💛 “The only true wisdom is knowing that you know nothing”. Always stay curious and remain humble to the whiplash of the world. No one can be a master of writing in the way you could point out masters of say, oil painting. I am not hot shit, I am so willing to be put in my place as a Shit Writer I placed an excerpt from Han Kang's The Fruit of My Woman at the beginning of Chapter 11 because it impressed me and I wish I wrote that passage and it helped inspire me: This is much better, read this first. Be willing to have opinions on books everyone else likes. For example I find Kerouac's On The Road a tremendous bore when it was pushed in my hands by someone who insisted it was the best book they'd ever read. Be inspired by everything. Go hiking. Read Wikipedia pages about cuisines that aren't from your culture and read National Geographic and look at art and myths. Read House of Leaves and James Joyce Ulysses and watch Akira and Moomin. Be observant in your day to day. Notice how people talk and act and stutter in conversation. Go to coffee shops and listen to the old farts at the next table over gossip. Write down what people say, keep their letters - I have quotes in 15 year old journals from high school I have to use at any time.

None of the best writing advice has anything to do with writing except, like, "watch your adverbs" or "study your favourite writers" or "mind your grammar". Your writing at any given time is the sum of all you know, yet all we're doing is a big rehashing: everything's been done before. Nothing is original, so anything could be: what's different is the writer. What's your perspective, and how will you tell your Iliad?

🎨 It would be an unbelievable honour to have any scene from my fic done. Just knowing one person was even a little bit inspired to draw out a scene of mine would be a dream come true. I've been meaning to do drawings of the first chapters, not quite in graphic novel form as 1:1 but more vignettes. I miss seeing my characters in Banff, and my mind lingers on the mountain with Livvie watching RJ through her scope, and Jack shaking her hand for the first time and her meeting Dogmeat.

Truly, anything - it would be an honour.

   “  of course, we’re in love. the most in love couple in the world. right, honey ?  “  liv clings onto his arm, nervously as they sat across the table from their parents at the dinner they’d invited her and her ‘ boyfriend ‘ to. to get him to respond, she slams her foot against his under the table with a sweet smile on her face.

hi! i’m lily, i’m 19 from england and this is a brand new muse that i’m really excited to play out here. if you want to plot, like this and i’ll come talk to you in your ims/disco!

I saw [LEIA KANG] at a coffee shop in [MANHATTAN] today. I forgot how much [SHE] looks like [SHIN DOHYUN]. They are a [TWENTY FOUR] year old [CEO OF KANG ENTERPRISES] who’s been in NYC for [ALL HER LIFE] now. Every time we run into each other, they are always [HONEST AND CREATIVE] but I’ve heard people say they can also be [IMPULSIVE AND ABRUPT]. [BRUTAL BY OLIVIA RODRIGO] reminds me of them every time it comes on the radio. — [lily, she/her, 19, gmt+1]

name: leia kang

korean name: sojung

gender: cis woman

pronouns: she/her

sign: capricorn

ethnicity: korean.

nationality: american

sexuality: bisexual (really doesn’t care)

family: kang yeonjung (mother), kang youngchul (father - deceased), kang zachary / kijung (older brother)

BACKSTORY

her name says it all. her father really liked star wars so leia came to be indeed her father’s princess. her parents came to new york city to expand their already very successful investment company that also dabbled in the music industry because they could. the kangs were millionnaires even before they took ownership of that penthouse suite on the new york skyline. within ten years they would be billionnaires.

leia had always been a charming girl up for some fun. she tried hard in school but was naturally distracted and so the leia, you could have done better speech came into existence. she got good grades, was above average and that was enough for her. she never felt the need to be pushing herself but maybe that was because she felt her privilege coming from a rich family. she was a people person and enjoyed conversing more than she loved doing essays.

she had her first big fight with her parents when she revealed she didn’t want to go to college. she hung around with manhattan’s elite but if she was being honest, she found them insufferable and would much rather just use her fake id to have some fun. it was a big deal and first but then her brother happened. he had ended up in the hospital after an accidental drug overdose.

one thing to get straight is that leia absolutely adores her big brother. he was the one that was always so encouraging to her to do what made her happy. for all she knew, he was her hero and was owning his life to the fullest. why didn’t she see that he was struggling? hindsight was a useful thing but leia hadn’t been told about her brother’s addiction and he had ended up in the hospital. she was absolutely blindsided and the attention was taken off of her and put on her brother who needed it more.

leia wasn’t particularly mad about it, he needed help. however, the lack of supervision gave her a boost to be crowned one of new york city’s most decorated party girls. she’d be the first one there and the first one to leave. she felt so free and with no real pressure from her parents to get a job or make something off herself, that’s where she would stay. it made her blind to the fights that her parents had, the fights they had while discussing the welfare of her brother and how he was constantly struggling.

by this point, leia had pushed him away. when their parents didn’t give him money, he came to her and a couple of times, she buckled and gave him what he wanted. she loved him, she wanted him to love her too, for things to go back to how they once were but every time he came back, stopped her in the street and made her swear not to tell their parents, her heart sank a little more until she couldn’t do it anymore. enough was enough and she refused to help him. they were both upset for different reasons, he vanished for two weeks and then ended up back in rehab.

kang youngchul died the day after her twenty fourth birthday, in the early hours of the morning while she was still celebrating, from a heart attack that no one could see coming. leia was drunk when she finally rang her mother back. she didn’t believe it at first ut when it set in, she wished she hadn’t celebrated so hard. it all felt like a dream when she woke up hungover but it was real and she had to feel everything all over again.

it was a surprise to everyone when youngchul left nearly all of his assets, including his 98% share in the kang enterprise company to leia. she knew her parents were having trouble but was never at home enough to register how bad it was (maybe purposefully). he had left a property to zach but he wasn’t there for the will reading because he was in rehab and her mother was very adament that he couldn’t break his stay.

the twenty four year old who has had no proper job is now in charge of kang enterprises, much to her mother’s bitterness. the woman is upset and she doesn’t know what to do. she has her brother living with her in her new manhattan skyline apartment but when he doesn’t come home for a few days, it worries her. leia is trying so hard to try manage everything, to step up seen as her father has trusted her. leia stopped partying and started trying to learn business, taking advice from people who now worked for her? it was weird for her and still is.

people in her age group recognise her as the former party girl of the upper east side and others, youngchul’s legacy that got nearly everything and gave nothing to his wife. leia is providing for her mother but she wonders how bad it must have been between them to write her out entirely. leia is trying her best but sometimes does find her impulsive side taking over just because she needs a break from the pressure.

[aliveandfullofjoy]

It’s a Sunday and I’m procrastinating so here’s my ~official~ post-fall festival Oscar predictions.

In order of likelihood, I think?

BEST PICTURE

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

Marriage Story

Parasite

Jojo Rabbit

The Farewell

The Two Popes

Little Women

A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

The Irishman

1917

Joker

A Hidden Life

Hustlers

I’m not sold on 1917 or Joker making it at the moment. Obviously it’s super early, but 1917 could just come out too late while Joker is still an edgy comic book movie, and I’m not sold the Academy is gonna bite. I can see a similar haul to Girl with the Dragon Tattoo in 2011: an acting nomination, cinematography, editing, both sound categories, plus a nomination in score, while it ultimately gets snubbed in Picture and Screenplay. Just a hunch.

It’s a bit of a clusterfuck right now, which is pretty exciting. Hollywood and Marriage Story (and to a lesser extent, Jojo) are the only films that immediately jump out as potential Picture winners right now, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the industry just decides it’s time to give Tarantino every award under the sun. A24 has a lot of contenders, but it’s clear The Farewell is their biggest and brightest, and I think it’s safe here. Parasite is the international success story of the year. Little Women just has to not suck and I think it’s fine. Nervous about how Beautiful Day and Irishman are received.

BEST DIRECTOR

Quentin Tarantino (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood)

Bong Joon-ho (Parasite)

Noah Baumbach (Marriage Story)

Martin Scorsese (The Irishman)

Lulu Wang (The Farewell)

Next in line: Marielle Heller (A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood), Sam Mendes (1917), Todd Phillips (Joker), Greta Gerwig (Little Women), Terrence Malick (A Hidden Life)

Cluster. Fuck.

Feeling very good about Tarantino, Bong, and Baumbach. Scorsese has only ever missed out on a directing nomination once this century, and it was for Silence which had a mess of a campaign, so I think he’s probably fine here. That fifth slot is completely up for grabs, so much so that I can see directors getting in without a Picture nomination (Todd Phillips for Joker, Sam Mendes for 1917, Terrence Malick for Hidden Life, maybe even Pedro Almodóvar for Pain and Glory). If A24 really goes all in on Wang and Farewell, I can see her sneaking in on nomination morning (honestly, not unlike Gerwig did for Lady Bird). Then again, there’s room for the likes of Marielle Heller (Beautiful Day), Gerwig (Little Women), Waititi (Jojo Rabbit), and Fernando Meirelles (Two Popes). It’s a mess.

BEST ACTRESS

Renée Zellweger (Judy)

Scarlett Johansson (Marriage Story)

Saoirse Ronan (Little Women)

Awkwafina (The Farewell)

Cynthia Erivo (Harriet)

Next in line: Lupita Nyong’o (Us), Alfre Woodard (Clemency)

Erivo seems to be getting shakier by the day, which is a far cry from when it seemed like she could actually win, but now it’s become a firm race between Zellweger and Johansson. Both have things working against them for the win. Zellweger doesn’t fit the bill for the kind of actress who wins in supporting and then wins in leading (the only ones are Meryl Streep, Cate Blanchett, and Jessica Lange, who are all unquestionably “best of their generation” types), but she’s working a comeback narrative that’s far removed from just about anything we’ve seen in Best Actress -- this isn’t really the category for comeback winners. It’s clear that no matter how people feel about the movie, they love Zellweger’s performance and they love that she’s back after being done dirty by the industry, so if nothing else, she’s a lock for the nomination. Meanwhile, ScarJo is the highest paid actress in Hollywood, is featured in the newly appointed highest grossing film ever, and is in both Marriage Story and Jojo Rabbit. And yet, while her reviews are great, the consensus seems to be that it’s not really her movie -- it’s Adam Driver’s. It’s obviously not unheard of for people to win this category with a co-star with equal or more screentime (I mean, Olivia Colman, Emma Stone, Brie Larson, and Jennifer Lawrence have all won in the last ten years), but they usually have better reviews than their co-star. It’s a weird case. Maybe they both flounder and the stars align for Ronan to win, lol. Who’s to say.

If Erivo drops out of the race, I’m curious to see if Universal can bring Us back into the awards conversation. I’m also curious to see if Woodard can work her way into the race at SAG. Lots of what if’s.

BEST ACTOR

Adam Driver (Marriage Story)

Joaquin Phoenix (Joker)

Jonathan Pryce (The Two Popes)

Leonardo DiCaprio (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood)

Antonio Banderas (Pain and Glory)

Next in line: Robert De Niro (The Irishman)

Driver has his nomination locked. I’m confident Phoenix and Pryce get nominated. I imagine the race will boil down to those three. DiCaprio feels fairly safe, especially if Hollywood ends up being in the hunt for the win. Banderas is a weird case, because I’m not confident in the movie catching on anywhere else, but he won at Cannes, he’s a famous and respected star who’s never been nominated before, and even if the movie doesn’t take off with the Academy, Almodóvar clearly has a lot of fans. In a weird, weak year, I can see him sneaking in. For the win, I have no idea. Pryce maybe?

BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS

Laura Dern (Marriage Story)

Jennifer Lopez (Hustlers)

Margot Robbie (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood)

Zhao Shuzhen (The Farewell)

???

Next in line: Scarlett Johansson (Jojo Rabbit), Maggie Smith (Downton Abbey), Thomasin McKenzie (Jojo Rabbit), Anna Paquin (The Irishman), Annette Bening (The Report)

This is the weirdest, emptiest category of the year. Despite the already strong Dern vs. Lopez race for the win, filling out the rest of the field is tricky. Robbie should coattail off a strong film easily, and passion should be able to push Zhao through. But that fifth spot is a crapshoot. Is it one of the Jojo ladies? Is Bening the only nomination for a movie no one really cares about? Is Smith nominated for a role everyone’s been watching her play for almost a decade? Nobody really makes sense. Hell, maybe one of the Parasite actresses take off. Maybe J-Hud sneaks in with Cats. I literally have no idea.

BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR

Brad Pitt (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood)

Tom Hanks (A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood)

Anthony Hopkins (The Two Popes)

Alan Alda (Marriage Story)

Al Pacino (The Irishman)

Next in line: Willem Dafoe (The Lighthouse), Christian Bale (Ford v. Ferrari), Sterling K. Brown (Waves), Song Kang-ho (Parasite), Jamie Foxx (Just Mercy)

Unlike Supporting Actress, this one has a lot of contenders that make a reasonable amount of sense. This group of five feels about right for now, with Alda getting in based on the strength of the film and his own reputation, with Pacino being Irishman’s sole acting nod (and his first nomination since 1992!), and with Pitt and Hanks wrestling for the win. I guess?

The best part is that most of this is probably wrong. If nothing else, it looks like we’ve got a fun season ahead.

6 from the fluff prompts, either seuldy or sowoo, if you want!! thank you bby

Prompt: “Welcome Home”

[Pairing: Seulgi/ Wendy| Genre: fluff, confessions, warnings for slight mentions of ED but no unhealthy mindsets | Brigi I love u please take all this sappy stuff]

“Loneliness,I began to realise, was a populated place: a city in itself” – Olivia Laing

When Wendyfinally makes it out of the plane, the cool, crisp air hits her in the face andshe takes a deep breath. For a second, she almost misses the snow.

It snows inSeoul too, soft fluffy flakes lightly dusting the ground, but there’s somethingfundamentally different about the same weather in another city; some sort ofmetaphor about how places had personalities that seemed to bleed into theclimate. In Vancouver, it would snow relentlessly during the coldest nights,thick heavy sheets that blanketed everything and made it impossible to push thedoor open when she was a little kid. It was the kind of cold that chased you,seeped into the cracks of the buildings, made you wear socks even to bed andturn up the heating. It was the kind of weather that demanded attention, thatrequired every conversation to start with the words wow its really freezing today isn’t it?

She’salways had a funny relationship with snow. Back in Canada it had been thebiggest nuisance when she was a kid, forcing her to bundle up in layer afterlayer that eventually made her feel hot and suffocated, struggling to wadethrough mountains of the sparkling white power with her tiny frame that neverseemed to grow taller.  Mostly, though,Wendy used to hate how the snow blanketed everything around her and cut her offfrom the rest of the outside world in their old family home. Sometimes duringearly mornings when everyone else was fast asleep, she used to peer out of thewindows with her hands pressed to the cold glass, watching the flakes swirlaround outside with an aching sense of loneliness that was too big and toostrong for someone so young.

Now inSeoul, she couldn’t cut herself off from the world if she tried. The air inSeoul buzzes with friction, cars honking endlessly, the subway making endlessloops, businessmen running frantically in the mornings and children heading offto their hogwans late into the night. Even the houses seem to get smaller andmore cramped every time she returns even if that’s not actually possible, thethin walls leaving everyone inevitably eavesdropping on each other. In Seoulthere is no feeling of infinity, of Wendy being swallowed whole by herfeelings. Instead there’s only the relentless drive to push herself further tothe breaking point, the intense pressure that can only come when everyonearound you seems to be working harder than you.

( It’s notperfect but when you’ve felt it long enough, loneliness could be comforting.There could be some real, genuine satisfaction in that mass anonymity, in aplace were you were known for nothing but your work. Wendy will take it, shethinks, as she unlocks the front door of her dorm, ready for to be confrontedby a freezing cold apartment  covered indust and a todo list that will be miles long. It’s what she left home for. )

When sheunlocks her door and walks into her dorm  though, the heating has already been turned upand the curtains are drawn, muffling the sounds of traffic outside. The dorm isusually cramped, but now even more so thanks to all the cardboard boxeslittered on the furniture and floor, as well as a bunch of grocery bags thrownon the table instead of stocked in the fridge. The shower isn’t running, butthe bathroom door has been left open and the room smells like the fruity scentof shampoo.

“Hey” saysSeulgi.

Wendysquints, trying to adjust to darkness and can just about make out a lump ofblankets she assumes is her roommate and fellow student Kang Seulgi.

(Andgirlfriend, if months and months of Seulgi flirting with her and Wendymisreading the signs and then one kiss and confession just before wintervacation qualifies as dating. Wendy isn’t sure how to have that conversationyet)

“Hey” shereplies, parking her meagre suitcase by the door, “did you seriously just cometo the dorm and then go to sleep?”

“Uh no”says Seulgi indignantly,though the last word turns into a yawn, which kind ofruins the indignation. “I took a shower, you know. And went grocery shopping”

“And forgotto put away the groceries” she retorts, face twisting into a fond smile despiteherself.  

“How wasthe flight?” asks Seulgi, stretching luxuriously in her bed and clearly tryingto change the topic.

“Alright”replies Wendy. It was hell; there was a baby screaming for atleast eight hoursbut that doesn’t matter. Right now, she’s kind of awkwardly shifting from footto foot without trying to give that away because she’s tired and muddled and  her eyes have adjusted to the darkness, so shecan see Seulgi’s face, mouth crinkled into one of her usual smiles and her faceall puffy and soft from sleep and it is…um…distracting. She doesn’t know whatto do with herself.  She’s terrified ofsaying the wrong thing.

Seulgi humsthoughtfully, her voice raspier than usual from waking up. Then she sticks herarms out from under the blankets and makes grabby motions, gesturing for theother girl to join her.

Wendy feelsa small blush work its way onto her face despite her best efforts, stillslightly frozen to the spot. Seulgi makes a whining sound, wiggling her handsadorably and Wendy relents, kicking off her shoes and carefully draping her jacketon the head board before crawling into the space Seulgi’s left beside her. Itwas freezing cold back in Canada but right now its so warm, with the heat of Seulgi’s body and the three blankets she’swrapped tightly around them.

Cuddlingwith Seulgi is both comforting and nerve racking, long before they admitted thekind of feelings between them: it’s just so much close proximity, the two of them pressed tightly against oneanother, Seulgi’s chest right upto hers and their legs wrapped around eachother. She smells like shampoo and her skin is soft and warm in the kind of wayit can be when you’ve just woken up. Wendy can feel her body struggling to meltinto it and tense up at the same time.

Seulginotices, because she’s always noticed Wendy, long before the other girl thoughtthere was even a sliver of chance that the great Kang Seulgi would even thinkof her as a friend, and she smooths Wendy’s bangs away from her forehead,shifting away a little so that Wendy can get space.

“We didn’treally talk about what happened before you left, did we?” she says.

(Here’s howit went: Wendy arrived in Korea and was given a student accommodation with abubbly, bright dance major named Seulgi who seemed to single handedly be themost popular student on campus. Wendy had liked her obviously, subtly fallenfor her the way every single male student seemed to, but college wasdisorienting and overwhelming even without the element of Wendy adjustingawkwardly to cultural and language differences.  As the weeks past, she’d made a few friends,and was beloved by most of the professors, even on the days she didn’t havebaked goods to give them, but Seulgi-almost too beautiful to be real Seulgi-had turned into the kind of roommate that seemed to care almost as much asfamily members in those movies Wendy had grown up on as a kid. She’d gentlywake up Wendy on the mornings where she’d sleep through her alarm, leave herbreakfast on the kitchen table, and approach her late night with softsuggestions to sleep. She’d invite her out for fun nights and plan for both ofthem to watch movies together, cuddled up in one bed like teenagers. Wendy didn’treally cry when she was sad, didn’t like to show that she was down, but Seulgifelt everything unabashedly and honestly, and more that once or twice Wendy hadheld her close to her chest, stroking her hair, reassuring her that it wasgoing to be fine after specially harsh feedback. It’s a strange thing to admit,but it was a while before Wendy realized that this was what genuine connectionsfelt like, that it wasn’t another person who’d be happy to hang around for thefirst few days before inevitably getting dissolved into their own real friendgroups.

Seulgiintroduced Wendy to her own little group of friends, all brilliant and talentedlike she was, and somehow, Wendy fit right in, enjoying her own quiet time withJoohyun, fooling around with Soonyoung, and helping Yeri through her homeworkwhile the girl fretted about exams. The semester had gotten easier, somethinghad loosened up in her chest after and Wendy had a regular list ofacquaintances to hit up after that but Seulgi still remained the first personshe wanted to spend all her time with, and both of them had jumped headfirstinto the confusing, dizzying heights that came with adulthood, the person thatshe left with for ramen at three am in the morning.

When Seulgiasked her out, it wasn’t an impulsive, late night thing though. Wendy had beenpacking, arranging everything neatly on her bed, when Seulgi had gotten up andstood next to her, hands clasped nervously. “I want to tell you something” shewhispered, and then instead leaned forward and kissed her on the mouth, a soft,nervous peck. Wendy had dropped the clothes she was holding, kissed her back,and then she had to get on a plane and not see her for the next three weeks)

“You sentme a text that was like three paragraphs long trying to assure me that nothinghad to change if I didn’t want it to” says Seulgi, chuckling slightly.

“In mydefense, I was drunk” protested Wendy, still remembering sitting on the floorof her family bathroom, ignoring the Christmas party going on downstairs andsquinting at her autocorrect. “And-and”-she’s stammering again, fucking hell-“Imean, I do mean it, nothing has to change if you don’t want it to or anything,three weeks is a really long time to think about things, I mean, I care aboutyou deeply and your comfort comes first so-“

Seulgismooths down her hair again, looking at her with the kind of pinched expressionon her face, like what she’s saying hurts to hear in a way. “You’re so kindWendy” she says, warm breath tickling her face. It makes her shiver. “But rightnow, you don’t have to be. Do you want to date me?”

Wendy feelsher face go hot. It’s not really a sad moment, in fact its one of those momentsthat should  make her scream and jumpwith joy if she watched it on a movie, but she feels tears prick the corner ofher eyes even though she’s not sure why. “Yes” she confesses, and it’s the firsttime she’s put those feelings into words. It makes her throat go warm and itchy. “I would-would like to I mean I’vewanted to for a long time but I’m-I’m not, like, um in tip top condition and I’dprobably be really bad at it so sorry about that in advance I mean-“

Seulgikisses her to make her shut up. Wendy makes an embarrassing squealing sound.

“Sometimes,during the first year of college, you’d scare me” says Seulgi, and it’s aconfession too, just not the kind that gets recorded in most movies. “You’dcome over in the night, after a whole day of working nonstop, and you’d stillbe moving, cleaning, cooking, but your eyes would be completely dead. And youwere so alone, coming all the way from Canada, with no friends, and it scaredme, I didn’t know what do in the beginning, so I didn’t say anything- “

“-You didn’thave to say anything. You didn’t-it wasn’t your fault or anything, in fact itwasn’t anyone’s fault. I just…..I just had things to deal with”

Seulgi’sstill looking at her with furrowed brows, so Wendy leans forward and kisses heragain. “Being here has helped so much” she whispers into Seulgi’s skin, “beinghere, I can’t-I don’t have the words for it yet but it helps so much”

There are alot of things that Wendy used to convince herself Seulgi would never beinterested, most of all the fact that she’s ill, and the kind of illnesses thatother people don’t like acknowledge, let alone talk about. Being back in Canadawas like trying to navigate a tightrope of feelings and should nots, it wasendless questions about how much or how little she was eating, about how sheshould and shouldn’t have left, about all the things she’d missed since she’d beengone. It was family dinners where all she could hear was the sound of forks andknives scraping the plate and trying to pretend she didn’t miss the taste ofeating ramen at midnight when both of them were too exhausted to thinkstraight. It was spending hours in her bedroom with the door shut and fallingasleep at odd hours of the day

A questionthat both Wendy and Seulgi would have laughed at one semester ago: where didfeelings go when you’d spent your whole life trying to crush them out ofoblivion, bury them deep down?

Wendy usedto think they turned could disappear, melt away like the snow in Seoul, andthat given enough time, everyone would forget about them when spring emerged,flowers blooming to cover up the bruises. Instead, she’d learned the hard waythat they turned rock hard and settled into her throat and chest, bubbled upinconveniently in the form of tears late in the night and panic attacks duringher worst moments. All those issues that she’d been convinced she was over hadtaken her by surprise, showed up in odd corners and alleys, held her down, and Wendy’dlearned the hard way that feelings demanded to be felt, that there was no pointpretending otherwise. It hurts, but it also feels so much more honest. Like themoment in spring when the snow began to melt into slush and it was nowhere asbeautiful, but there was also nowhere to hide, all the cracks in the Earth laidbare to see.

“I know youdon’t like to talk about Canada” says Seulgi, lips pressed faintly on the skinof Wendy’s shoulder, her hands stroking Wendy’s back aimlessly, reassuringly. “AndI know you overthink things a lot. But even if its hard, just remember youdon’t have to worry when you’re with me”

After solong of being deprived of it, it’s hard to recognize that feeling thrumming inher chest, melting her bones and causing something warm to bloom in herstomach: happiness. It’s been so longsince she felt a sense of belonging, of that bone deep feeling of contentment,to the point where she’s slightly afraid of that feeling, but Seulgi gentlytugs her closer and presses a soft kiss to her forehead and Wendy’s buries herface into the crook of her neck almost like she’s compelled. She thinks shemight give up everything she had for Seulgi if the other girl wanted her to.She thinks she’s not ready to put that into words. Atleast not yet.  But she can kiss the dip where her neck meetsher shoulder, gently trace soft skin on her stomach, and lie in the darktogether.

“Do youthink our laundry machines are broken again?” Wendy says, because she wasmusing about how the maintenance are probably late again on the taxi ride home,and weirdly enough, it’s the only thing she can bring herself to say.

“Aren’t they ever year?” Seulgi is probablyrolling her eyes, and Wendy can’t bring herself to turn around and check, toobusy blinking away the last of her tears, but she kisses the soft skin as kindof a way to communicate anyway, to tell someone she loves them in messagestransmitted through skin.

“Welcomehome” whispers Seulgi, kissing her forehead. And she’s right. Wendy’s home now.The rest can wait.

     “  um... i  -  i can trust you, right ? i don’t really have many people i can talk to about this. even yongguk, i don’t think he’d quite get it. it’s just... i don’t even know where to start. “  there’s a pause before she speaks again,  “  i’m not really good at talking about my feelings. and i think that’s just how i was raised... but i did watch a lot of movies growing up. i think that’s how i really let out my emotions. but, um, anyway... i watched a lot of romance movies, because my mother thought it would help me understand what true love feels like.. between a man and a woman, something that was, you know, supposed to be my life. and it isn’t to say i dislike them. i still watch them to this day and enjoy them. but, for a different reason. ”  thinking about such a thing, just barely does the discomfort disappear from her face. just barely.  “ i didn’t understand at first. how, you could look at someone and see your future ? how could you want to do all those things like kissing and holding hands and not feel grossed out ? how could anything those people feel in movies be real ? i always thought it was bullshit... but, i don’t anymore.  ”  there’s a hand that presses against her chest, feeling a little nervous that she has the chance to say this out loud.  “ i had known from really young that i only liked women. but, meeting miyeon really solidified it. i think she must have been freaked out because i kept staring at her all the time at first and you know my face isn’t the friendliest.  “  a chuckle arises, and any shred of discomfort turns into warmth evident on her face.  “  i never wanted to get to know a person quite like i did with her. i remember rewatching a lot of those movies just to make sure. i understand what all those people feel now, and i know... i can’t be with her the way i want to and i might never be able to. but, i think about her a lot. she makes me... so happy. i feel like i can feel everything good i’ve ever felt all at once with her. the only sadness that comes with it is just knowing that i can’t show it. but... maybe one day, when i’m not such a nervous wreck fucking controlled by my parents, i’d fight so i can say that she’s mine.  “  realizing just how much she’s talked, olivia covers her face with her hands.  “  oh, god. feelings, gross. you better not tell her any of this. “
