TAEMIN: BACK TO YOU (HC REQUEST)

*side note, I’m not the best at writing fluff lol, it’s been some years since I’ve writing fluff that wasn’t full of cliches or overly dramatic, but I can assure you that after I dust off the hopeless romantic version of me hiding in the closet I will be posting more fluff even outside of requests* (requested by @criistig10) I hope you like it, sorry for the wait🫶🏾😸

Fluff, slight angst if you squint super hard, and (female) idol/actor y/n.

•You and Taemin dated for about four to five years before you broke up

-it was kinda like a twin flame, meant to be, crossed lovers, another half of me, my mirror, type of love, you were basically in love before even dating and when you finally did make things official, you became that obnoxiously happy and in love couple that everyone expected to get married

-Jonghyun, Kibum, Minho, and Jinki often joked that if he broke up with you, they'd be more heartbroken than you just because they were that supportive of your relationship

-you didn’t immediately go public with your relationship, instead, you kept it private and that was fine for both of you since his idol lifestyle and your actor/idol lifestyle can be a little unforgiving to relationships

•unfortunately, your relationship ended due to both of your hectic schedules

-you had just got cast for a new drama with Lee Dongwook and Im Siwan, and Taemin was scheduled to tour with Superm, meaning that you hardly had any time to spend together, you both always found yourself stressed out trying to scrape together more than two hours to see each other but it just became too much eventually

-at first, it wasn’t that bad, but right after his tour with Superm ended, he began working on his solo comeback, so there was no time to be together and go on cute dates or even talk really

-after a while even texting and phone calls became too much, at first you never even worried about texting him since Taemin is infamous for his horrible texting skills, but with that being your last resort you had no other choice but to deal with it

-Taemin tried his best to keep up and get better at responding to texts, he’d text you first every morning and try to respond within at least five minutes, but since you were still doing promotions for the new drama you’d take hours to respond

-just when you were done with all of your promotions and things were starting to seem better, Taemin was once again preparing for a new comeback with SHINee and had multiple reality shows and interviews to do, so even though you were free, he was extremely busy

-it only got worse when you started working on music again, it wasn’t like it was your choice though, your company was adamant about you working on a new album, so in the same year that Taemin had been working with Superm, working on a new solo album, and album with Shinee, (not to mention all of the lives he’d do), you were working on dramas, music, reality shows, and even hosting for award shows.

-It’s needless to say that neither of you had the time on your hands for a relationship at the time.

•You both tried to make time to talk, but it seemed nearly impossible, he was always out either doing photoshoots, promos, shooting music videos, recording, or practicing, and you were either recording for new songs, rehearsing for new shows, doing interviews, or doing promos and photoshoots

-eventually got too tiring for both of you and when you did finally get a second alone, you had your first real fight

-Taemin was upset that you were spending so much time with others and not him and you were upset that he made it seem like you had a choice to

-a hour of arguing later and a few raised voices, Taemin apologized and admitted that all of the work has been getting to him and seeing you get so close with others was making him jealous and it just hasn't been helping

- you accepted his apology, he's always been the first to apologize even if it wasn't ever an argument, if he upset you in the slightest, he'd be the first to say sorry.

•Unfortunately, even though he apologized and things seemed fine, he realized that you were both just too stressed for a relationship and decided that you should go on a break until you were both free again

-it was a hard decision to make, but after he explained that he would only be until you were both done with your current situation, you agreed and decided that it would be the last night that you stayed together

-Taemin didn't want to let you go, he made sure he held you closely and constantly reminded you that he loves you, he didn't want to say anything but he was worried that you'd decide that you didn't want to continue things, what he didn't know was you felt the same

•After just a month of being split, you were finally finished with your insane schedule, but Taemin was only getting deeper into his, eventually, you decided to take a hiatus so you could be sure that you wouldn't be busy when he finished

-you announced to your fans and explained that you'd be back soon and that you would be taking time away due to personal reasons since you had never gone public about your relationship

-when Taemin heard about it he assured you that the second he was able to, he'd come back to you and make sure things would be completely perfect, he even promised to watch that show you had been bugging him about and him being his dramatic self, planned a whole romantic dinner and started to prepare a gift you'd never expect

•But, the day before he finished, he was told about his enlistment, and before being able to go back to you, he had to enlist and without being able to properly say goodbye, he left

-you were shocked when he called you about it, you cried immediately but tried your best to be strong, you didn’t want to worry so much but it was starting to look like you’d never end this break and his worrying didn’t make it any better

-it hurt you so deeply to see pictures of him leaving all over, no matter where you went, you saw pictures of him all over, a poster saying goodbye, videos of his live the week before, and edits of him with Shinee and Superm, it all made you sob, you missed him so much

-but he was in the same boat, fans of yours were posting clips and edits of you wishing for a healthy break, writing about how much they’d miss you and the drama you were in before leaving began to trend so much that he couldn’t avoid it

-the first week of being gone, he began watching other shows you had filmed, even though watching them made him tear up every time, he missed your face and felt comforted by seeing you.

•After two long years of him being gone, you were still on hiatus, the breakup had torn you to shreds and you just couldn't take going back to work

-you expected him to be back sooner but it felt like the universe didn't want you to be happy, his discharge was pushed back three more months and you were left waiting again

-you hadn't talked the entire time of his being there because he used his free time to talk to his family and his members, you assumed that he just got over you though, not knowing that he mentioned you every time he talked to anyone else

-he tried texting you and calling, but every time he ended up getting distracted by something else

•When Taemin went to Jinki's concert (just a month before his discharge) he saw a poster of you hanging outside of the stadium saying that you were staring in a new show

-he immediately looked it up and was devastated to see that it was a romance, the helpless lonely romantic in him couldn't help but spend the whole time thinking of and talking to Minho about you

-he thought about you so much, that he couldn't even stay for the rest of the concert because he kept tearing up and had to leave early

-while leaving he saw a bus with you on it promoting your new single, it only hurt him worse when he listened to it and found out that it was about a lost love

•Eventually though, that last month was over and Taemin was finally back, you waited that whole month completely glued to your phone whenever you got the chance

-you participated in the countdown and posted every day until he got back, you expected him to like the post or at least your story but he never did, he didn’t even see it, but you kept posting

-on the last day of the countdown though, he sent you a lengthy text, telling you how badly he missed you and how this time he’s not going to let you go, the message made you tear up right away, and when he asked you if you were busy that weekend you told him no and canceled the dinner you had with your cast members

•Cue cliche romance in the rain kissing scene, Taemin heard that it was going to rain on Sunday and instead of planning for Saturday he thought the rain would make things more romantic

-if it was possible to max out a black card he would’ve done it that night

-he got the driver to buy three beautiful bouquets of your favorite flowers from a really expensive florist shop since he missed three anniversaries but that was only the start

-when you got to his house he had bought three life-size bears with voice messages in them, one was from the first anniversary he missed before he enlisted and the other two were during his enlistment, he bought three different cakes, nine pairs of expensive shoes, six sets of diamond earrings to match all the shoes, three matching necklaces with all the earrings, and nine bracelets all for the three missed anniversaries.

•You tried to convince him to return it after finding out how much he spent but he was set on you keeping it all, especially since he saved the best part for last

-Taemin may be able to cook a few things, but instead of cooking he ordered your favorite foods to make sure you’d enjoy them, and you did, every second you were spending together made you fall in love all over again, but it wasn’t the dinner or the gifts, it was seeing him again and hearing his voice, the way he hugged you when he saw you and the warmth you felt gave you butterflies that you had missed dearly

-After dinner, you expected the gift-giving to be over and to finally sit down and address the elephant in the room, but Taemin had one more thing to give you, something he had waited years for

•As you entered his living room while wiping your wet hands on your pants, you froze in shock

-As Taemin stood in front of you with the lights low and his two cat babies at his feet eating a treat he gave them to convince them to sit still for a while your heart began to pound, the way he smiled at you gave away what he was going to do next, but nothing could’ve prepared you for the sight of Taemin getting down on one knee

-As he looked up at you it felt like the world had stopped, the shine in his slightly teary eyes and the smile on his face made your knees feel weak, and when he pulled the small black box from his back pocket and opened it your eyes watered

-“Will you-“ he didn’t even get to finish before you tackled him in a hug, crying as you chanted ‘Yes!’ Over and over again

•Taemin had been planning to propose to you when you told him you were going on hiatus and originally bought the ring two months before and planned to do it on your anniversary, and thought that he’d never be able to when he enlisted

-After you said yes to marrying him he adorably asked you to be his girlfriend again with that cute cheeky smile he has whenever he does something slightly unhinged

-you of course said yes, despite both of your worries that things would get hectic again you both agreed to work through it because being apart was worse than having less time to spend together

-but you didn’t have to worry about it for a while, although Taemin was doing a fan meet and you were promoting your new song, you both had time to see each other and eventually, you decided that it would be a better idea if you lived together

•As time passed your schedule changes and becomes hectic, but with new living arrangements it’s more manageable, and although he’s still bad at responding to texts, seeing him every night makes it more than tolerable.

[braemjeorn]

the more i learn abt hwang kwanghee's idol career the more bewildered i am.

i believe i saw him first as a host for weekly idol, I think the guest were either skz or nct dream

by that time I didn't think he was an idol, that he was their 2nd gen sunbae, I just thought that he was one of the many famed hosts and mcs of variety shows, thankful that he took care of the boys kindly

tHEN I went back to binging 'we got married'

and HIS NAME popped up

THERE I FOUND OUT THAT HE WAS AN IDOL

AND THAT HIS GROUP MEMBER IS IM SIWAN

whom I saw in run on and it was such a lovely drama with a lovely ost and mr im himself was lovely

this revelation was a bit of a wtflipping smokes moment subdued only by me being distracted about wgm

these two people? in the same group? who'd have thought!???

in my defense, I wasn't paying much attention when reading through siwan's career

back to WGM

it started off real awkward but man...

him and his 'wife', han sunhwa

I tell you those two just matched up really well

if someone was acting chaotically extroverted with me I would have let out an embarrassed laugh and went please stop I cannot match that energy or something like aren't you too much for this hour?

i think some couples on wgm are like that as well

these TWO on the other hand

"we're gonna pay our respects to these balloon horses in place of your parents? sure, why not. the yellow one is my mum. why is she neighing? well, she just said you have to take care of me better."

you're crazy and so am I energy

and there's this one time seonhwa got such a mrs elton (mi cara sposo) energy going "my dear husband won an award as an up-and-coming celebrity of the year and he didn't even think to tell me!"

the way they just answer each other's antics is to die for

so ordinary couple coded those two

silly wild guy and a pretty girl who's as wild as him

and I think kwanghee actually liked seonhwa omalord //>.

she spoke about it in radio star mbc(? or whatever talk show that was) how he gifted her things and she felt she couldn't accept so much since they were just friends and all outside of shooting

and he's like "so you still think of me as a friend?"

(in her defense mr hwang, a girl gotta really guard her heart)

but she was kinda like "well, yeah"

so he went "arraseo - alright I get it, I won't rush you then."

dugeundugeun dokidoki moment I swear

the hosts in front of seonhwa def thought so

what a man WHAT A MAN INDEED

not standard handsome but has his charms and I admire that

(he scolded a hoobae for naming seonhwa his ideal woman lol)

God bless my elementary Korean, it helped so much already at understanding these uncaptioned clips

they flirt, they tease, they rizz each other up

they just get into each other's mischief without question and I just love that teamwork/union/partnership

I need to see more episodes abt them

on another thing that spurt out this post

I realized that kwanghee somehow looked like a combination of han and changbin??

that's the way I can put it as a 3rd gen kpop enthusiast, my apologies should I offend the veteran fans

like his jaw and chin and how it rounded nicely like a sunflower seed (what is this description lord)

you know how changbin have that notorious chin and hannie those jeekies

how they're not as manhwa-angled as minho or SM's flower boys or as firm and strong as chan's

I love this face category, I appreciate it

sunflower seed face ma lord why am I making up these terms

ALSO HE CHORTLES LIKE CHANGBIN

guys hilarious, one of them variety kings I'll bet

I think I saw on a youtube thumbnail kwanghee's picture on a video to note the list of idols who had plastic surgery which could just be uploaded for clout and all that clickbaities

he does look different if you compare his wgm looks (which was from 2013) to his recent 2020s contents

it could be surgery but it could also be how the styling for this decade and 2018 upward changed a lot since early 2010a kpop, hairstyle and all

or he just hit thirty and the fat melts by themselves

who knows bruh celebrities

whatever that was was not as wild as the fact that he did a stage with GDragon and Taeyang

MAbsOSAA

the Koreans in the comment section was wild about that performance

"ain't nobody gonna get on bigbang's level, nobody I tell you"

it was an amazing performance, but honestly I was just more bewildered over the fact that these people met

are even the same age and all that and just casually did collabs

97liners, what are yall up to?

look at me bewildered by recent history of hallyu

I may binge watch more wgm clips and look up kwanghee's performance as host to the younger idols

gonna look out for this man in the future for sure

I'll be back when I want to rant again LOLS

2020 Year in Thirst Pt. 2

Sometimes, I will watch a drama for the plot/premise/substance and be rewarded with a surprise hottie, and it’s the best feeling ever!  It’s like finding money in your pocket that you didn’t know about.  The following list of dramas can be described as:

Came for the plot, was rewarded with a surprising side of thirst

1. Flower of Evil

Brief Summary: Lee Jun Ki plays Baek Hee Sung and Moon Chae Won plays Cha Ji Won, his wife who is also a detective.  What Ji Won doesn’t know is that her husband, Hee Sung, is actually Hyun Soo, a man on the run from a murder that he did not commit and also a suspected accomplice to a series of murders committed by his father in the past.  Oh yeah, his dad secretly tried to groom him into being his protege/murder partner.  Because of how he was raised, HS believes that he has no emotions and is simply putting on an act as the perfect husband and father.  His “parents” are in on the ruse and are actually the ones who forced him into assuming their comatose son’s identity.  Anyway, of course things from the past start to catch up with HS and his wife is somehow assigned to investigating his old murder case.  She of course feels betrayed, but also conflicted as she discovers her husband is not who he said he was and a prime murder suspect.  Things get even more complicated as the real murderer re-appears with fabulous long hair and tries to frame HS for the murders.  In between all of this are delicious make outs between the couple and at least one instance where they banged so hard, HS was wiped out the next morning.

Surprise Thirst Factor: I checked out this drama fully expecting to drop it because the promos were so misleading and unappealing. But boy was I in for a pleasant surprise!  Not only was the drama super addicting, it also had some nice eye candy in the form of Lee Jun Ki being a completely unrealistic house husband who satisfies in the housework (The man cooks and does the laundry!), childcare, and bedroom and Kim Ji Hoon’s glorious mane of beauty making viewers have a moral crisis over lusting after a homicidal maniac (who turned out to be a real loser without murder daddy around to clean up his mess.  It’s ok, we’ll always have his hair).

Yes, work that hair honey.  It’s the only good thing you’ve got going on for you (the character, not Kim Ji Hoon)

The chemistry between Lee Jun Ki and Moon Chae Won was fire and the make out scenes were soo believable.  Like yes, these two beautiful people are really into being married to each other and understandably want to make out all the time. 

He’s the primary caretaker for their daughter and it’s just *swoons.*  Not all thirst traps come in the form of sexy abs (although I would not mind if he wanted to flash some).

2. Six Flying Dragons

Brief Summary: The story of young Yi Bang Won (who later becomes King Taejong) and the founding of the Joseon Dynasty.  As short as it sounds, that really is an accurate summary of the drama haha.

Surprise Thirst Factor: I started watching this drama because I heard it was a great sageuk and I’m a big fan of Yoo Ah In.  Even though I’m a fan of his acting, Yoo Ah In doesn’t necessarily get my hormones raging so I wasn’t expecting to be so thirsty while watching Six Flying Dragons.  But then.  BUT THEN.  Byun Yo Han showed up in all his scruffy tortured deadly killer glory and my hormones woke up and said hi, hello, who are you, what’s your name, what’s your sign, can I get your number?  The deadlier and more tortured his character got, the sexier he became to me.  Sorry Yoo Ah In, you’ll always be my acting boo, but Byun Yo Han’s got my thirst.  Byun Yo Han looks so good when he's sad and/or covered in blood, it makes me feel like a sadist for thinking that I wouldn’t mind if the drama made his character cry some more.

3. Ever Night S1

Brief Summary: As a child, Ning Que witnessed his entire household get massacred because of a prophecy that the child of Hades will be born from the house and bring about the Eternal Night.  Somehow, he managed to escape and was the lone survivor.  He finds a baby buried in a pile of dead bodies as he’s fleeing and names her Sang Sang.  The two orphans grow up inseparable from each other and do whatever it takes to survive in the harsh, cruel world.  Ning Que earns money by becoming a deadly mercenary and Sang Sang takes care of the household affairs.  At one point, Ning Que becomes a disciple of the powerful Fu Zi and somehow gets entangled in the struggles between the Holy Sect and Demon Sect.  A bunch of beautiful women fall for Ning Que, and the drama tries its hardest to convince us that he has chemistry with and reciprocates the feelings of one of them (i.e. Mo Shan Shan), but anybody who was even half paying attention knows that the only one for Ning Que is Sang Sang.  They are the OTP of all OTPs and take “ride or die” to a whole other level. Oh also, their height difference is the stuff manga dreams are made of. Ning Que is a “good guy” but also not a “good guy” in the sense that he is not above doing whatever it takes to seek revenge and is only out for himself and Sang Sang (and later, his older brothers and sisters from the academy).

Surprise Thirst Factor: Chen Feiyu is an attractive person but I could not in good conscience thirst after him because he was literally born in the year 2000.  It did not help that he was only 18 when he filmed Ever Night and looked every bit his age.  My thirst may have no shame, but it does have its own set of principles and one of those principles is thou shalt not lust after those born in the new millennium!  Luckily for me, Second Brother is played by Dylan Kuo who is a beautiful, elegant, tall man

and Brother Chao is exactly the type of rugged and manly that I am into.  

(you don’t have to be)

who looks better when wet

AHEM. Yeah.

Sixth Brother is also not so bad with his scanty pounding work attire,

4. Novoland: Eagle Flag

Brief Summary:  Asule is the prince of a tribe in the grasslands who is held as a royal guest (i.e. hostage) in the Eastland Empire.  There he meets his two future best friends, Yu Ran, a free spirited princess who is descended from a race of bird people, and Ji Ye, an emo neglected/shunned son of a concubine who is probably the best fighter in the empire.  Ji Ye loves Yu Ran who is a ball of sunshine to his Johnny Raincloud dark emo self.  Yu Ran loves Ji Ye back.  Asule loves both his friends and will do anything to protect them.  The world decides to fuck over best friends Asule, Ji Ye, and Yu Ran for no reason as they try their best to just live a peaceful life away from all the political scheming and fighting.

Surprise Thirst-worthiness: I was completely content with enjoying Eagle Flag purely for its story and substance.  It’s seriously a wonderful, yet heartbreaking drama and the scale of the production is amazing.  No cheap $10 costumes here.  Also, the direction is beautiful/artistic and not the run of mill “let’s shoot it and complete it as fast as we can.”  The two main actors were cute, but not really my type.  Then the drama decided to give Ji Ye the “Sexy Bloody Tormented Killer Makeover” and all of a sudden your girl was rushing to MDL to check Chen Ruo Xuan’s birthday and calculating his age.  I am simple, predictable, and consistent when it comes to my thirst and give a character some scruff, long hair, angst, and some bloodlust and I’m all yours.  I am literally:

Is it wrong that when Ji Ye showed up looking like this ready to kill his mother’s torturer

I thought, yes, can we have him kill another? 

5. Run On

Brief Summary: Im Siwan plays Ki Seon Geom, a national track runner from a rich family who is a bit of an oddball and marches to his own beat.  Although his words can sometimes be construed as rude since he has no filter, they are also completely honest and have no hidden meaning.  He also has his own personal code that he lives by and he will stick to it no matter how negatively it may impact himself.  He meets Oh Mi Joo, a translator with her own strange quirks and sparks fly as Mi Joo is assigned to be his interpreter.  

Surprise Thirst-worthiness: I kind of watched this drama by accident.  I had read about Im Siwan starring in a new drama but nothing I saw from the description or promos for Run On appealed to me.  Nor did it give me any information about what the drama would be about.  Then one day, I just happened to be browsing Netflix for something to play in the  background and decided on Run on since I thought I wouldn’t be that invested.  What a happy accident that turned out to be because I’m so in love with this drama right now.  This is a case where the thirst does not stem from the character’s physical appearance, but from the intensity/charisma the actor brings to the character and the character himself.  Ki Seon Geom is so odd, but so appealing at the same time and Im Siwan is so magnetic in the role.  Prior to Run On, Im Siwan wasn’t really my type physically.  In fact, I always scratched my head whenever people called him handsome in dramas (I know, I know, forgive me).  So color me shocked when I found myself swooning all over Im Siwan in the second episode of Run On.  Now, it’s like I have “Im Siwan is attractive” glasses on and he looks attractive in everything to me.  I want to gobble up all the dramas he’s been in.

[pearlcscent]

💘 frederick and ara or siwan and sora 💕

i’ll do half for fred + ara and the other half for siso 💕

ara + frederick

where they first met and how

— they’ve been friends since they were kids! they met through school

how long their ‘flirting’ phase was before feelings got involved

— a little while! they were pinning for each other for a while and they’re pretty flirty with each other so probably a few months

who fell for who first (if applicable)

— i’m pretty sure it was mutual but i’m gonna say fred

where their first date was and what it was like

— fred had this whole day planned and because they’ve done everything together, the logical thing is to have a “traditional” first date. so they get all dressed up and fred takes ara to a nice restaurant in town. they later walk around late at night, doing some illegal drinking and end up talking all night, dancing to their favorite songs 

who asks who out and how (with a sign? spelled out on a cake? just a simple ‘will you go out with me’?)

— fred! he probably wanted to do something cool but ended up just cutting to the chase because he couldn’t wait to call her girlfriend

who proposes first

— both? HDJSK

if they keep / kept their relationship secret or let everyone know right away

— they let everyone know! fred was probably shouting from the rooftops

where the proposal happens and how (kiss cam at a baseball game? on a hillside surrounded by ducks? at a disney park?)

— it’s very spontaneous! fred comes back from his asia trip a couple of months early and surprises ara. so probably at her place? through the hugs, kisses and tears, they decide to elope as they’ve always known they’d marry each other anyway. i think ara may suggest it first and fred agrees because he was already planning on proposing anyway!

if they adopt any pets together

— yes! although that’s derailed a bit because ara gets pregnant very fast after they’re reunited and married. probaby in between lia & finley (2nd and 3rd baby) they get a puppy

who’s more dominant

— ara

where their first kiss was and what it was like

— fred’s room! very awkward and embarrassing. they were each other’s first kiss and they did it mostly out of curiosity

if they have any matching couples stuff (mugs? sweaters? pillowcases?)

— yes, they’re cheesy like that. sweaters, mugs, jewelry, phone cases... they’re not very obvious with some items because they’re inside jokes

how into pda they are

— very into it

who holds the umbrella when it rains

— fred

where their usual ‘date spot’ is (if applicable)

— as teens, the bleachers at school

who’s more protective

— ooh both but i’m gonna say ara

how long it is before they sleep together (can be as in ‘had sex’ or as in ‘shared a bed’)

— they’ve shared a bed since they were kids really. and their first time happened a few months after they started dating!

if they argue about anything

— they do. they’ve been together for a long time so their arguments have adapted to wtv life stage they’re at. with that, they’ve also built great communication though

siwan + sora

who leaves more marks (lipstick, hickeys, scratchmarks etc.)

— sora

who steals whose clothes and how often

— they both use each other’s clothes! siwan more in the beginning, then sora

how they cuddle (spooning? facing each other?)

— whenever siwan would try to get close to cuddle, sora would leave so it took them a while to get there. sora really likes being the little spoon though. siwan likes to rest his head on her lap and sora runs her hands through his hair

what their favourite nonsexual activity is

— had to take a shower and manifest this lmao. so! sora was always a dancer first, everything else second until the company wanted her to focus on rapping. since siwan is also very passionate about dancing, they do practise a lot together. eventually sora shows him the songs she produces too and they start having these creative sessions together, creating music and choreography.

how long they stay mad at each other

— at best, a few days. at worse, months.

what their usual coffee / tea orders are

— sora: anything with at least 3 shots of espresso / siwan: ice americano

if they ever have any children together

— too early for that!!!

if they have any special pet names for each other

— sora to siwan: dickhead, ass, dumbass, fool / siwan to sora: princess, baby

if they ever split up and / or get back together

— in between officially dating and being fwb they do “break up”. sora fucks up and it takes her a few months to realise she wants siwan in her life and to apolagize

what their shared living space is like (messy? clean? what kind of decor?)

— hum, when they’re together at each other’s dorm they do make somewhat of a mess. siwan is the clean freak of the two so he’d tidy up in the morning. once they share a place together, it’d be very well decorated, somewhat minimalist. they both like decorating their place but siwan is especially interested

what their first christmas / hanukkah / etc as a couple was like

— do you know when couples want to spend these times together but something (or themselves) is always in the way? (think k-drama) like there’s always somewhere else they gotta be for work or the timing is just off? that’s them for a really long time. i feel like siwan has planned stuff for them to do, even if it’s a just a moment in between schedules but it never worked out. and they both are aware of this you know? both know they want to spend some time together, even if it’s to just bicker away. eventually they do spend the holidays together and it’s very special.

what their names are in each other’s phones

— sora: she just has his number lmao no name / siwan: my girl 🖤 in korean probably

if they have any ‘couple traditions’ (buying a new mug for their collection every year? baking every friday evening?)

— they do bets a lot, usually for who pays for dinner next time they see each other. siwan started it because he knows sora does everything out of spite and he wanted to make sure he’d see her again soon

who falls asleep first and who wakes up first

— siwan / sora

who’s the big spoon / little spoon

— sora is the little spoon more often

who hogs the bathroom

— siwan

who kills the spiders / takes them outside

— sora!

✮ Spotify playlist:  Julian Hwang ✮ Pinterest: C: Julian 

( Bang Chan & Im Siwan ) bopping along to I’m Yours by Jason Mraz is Julian Hwang, the twenty-one year old cismale thrown back to their business days with some of his memories. voted most likely to live in a library, Julian was known for being studious & self-destructive, go figures you’d always find them taking 15 minute power naps on top of a book, but grew up to be hard-working & fanatical .

♦ background (then & now) ♦ 

↣ Hometown: Adelaide, Australia ↣ Nationality: Australian ↣ Ethnicity: Korean ↣ Parents: Namsung (Nora) & Chongyol (Jamie) Hwang // Step Dad: Flynn Caldwell 

O1 x. Then - Originally from Australia, Julian moved to the states on a sports scholarship for swimming while taking his degree in business at SVU. His parents were less than thrilled to send him away but after a lot of reassurance that he was going to eat three meals a day & get plenty of sleep, the deal was sealed. Of course, Julian doesn’t do either of those things but what his parents didn’t know won’t kill them. Sleeping doesn’t earn scholarships, after all.  O3 x. Then - However, sometime after being admitted to SVU, his parents got a divorce and Julian’s mom moved to the states to be closer to him. She had nothing left for her in Australia and considered it a fresh start. His dad stayed behind to run the family business, a small traditional Korean restaurant. Julian’s still close to both of his parents but considerably more so his mother. He couldn’t exactly afford to jet off to visit his dad every other weekend and even on a scholarship, Julian was working multiple jobs to pay his bills so as not to burnden his mother. 

O2 x. Now - Julian graduated SVU, one of the top of the class, and moved into a job as a financial advisor for small and large hospitals alike. He frequently travels but still comes back home on occassion to visit his family. It’s been 10 years and Julian’s mom, Nora Hwang, is remarried to Flynn Caldwell. He’s also gained a step brother in the process, Austin Caldwell, who just so happens to have attended the same university as him.   O4 x. Now - Julian can’t say that he necessarily dislikes the Caldwell’s but there’s some resentment there. Him and Austin led two very different lives growing up and couldn’t be more dissimilar. It wasn’t so much that Julian was never allowed to be a teenager, it was just never an option that crossed his mind considering their financial burdens. Of course, now with a financially stable husband, Julian feels as though his mom doesn’t rely on him as much anymore. It should be a relief, honestly, but what about all of his hard work? All those years he gave up? The many, many jobs he’d worked to make sure she’d never pay a dime for his education? It all seems so pointless now but what else can he do but keep working? 

♦ personality ♦ 

↣ Good Traits: Hard-working, companionly, kind, & patient ↣ Neutral Traits: Quiet, frugal, paternal, responsible, & a perfectionist ↣ Bad Traits: Self-destructive, fanatical, uptight, & a pushover 

O1 x. Self-Destructive - Has a bad habit of sacrificing himself for everything & anything else. Sleeping, eating, & socializing are no match for studying, clubs, & work. If he’s stressed, he’ll work himself into a tizzy about it until the job is done or he’s burnt out. Rarely fails at completing tasks, but has been known to spell his own demise by getting stress-sick or otherwise working himself up too much. Sometimes (read: all the time) he’s convinced he’s going to fail, drop out, & become homeless. Has a hard time looking at the silver lining when it comes to his own life, even if he is generally uplifting of others. These days he’s chilled out considerably since university but still tends to forget to take care of himself. 

O2 x. Fanatical - Becomes obsessed with tasks, no matter the subject. Kind of a perfectionist & will work himself until he can’t anymore. Sometimes scares people with just how much he cares about things. Tends to go over & beyond what is expected or even wanted sometimes. It has landed him a couple of nice promotions up into the present day though. The only thing that’s changed since his university days is that he almost needs something to obsess over or he’ll remember how pointless it all really is. 

O3 x. Hard-Working & Studious - Can be depended on to put in the proper effort & do it right. Rarely spends time not doing something productive and frequently multitasks. It’s not that he’s particularly giften in the brain department, he’s about average really, but the constant studying earned himself A’s throughout school and now a pretty swaggin job. Definitely not a quitter and pretty stubborn about finishing things and doing it right. 

O4 x. Companionly - A good and trusting friend through and through. That mom friend at the party making sure you stay hydrated. Enjoys spending time with others no matter the occasion, wether that be his sports friends or study buddies. Loves his friends a little too much & tends to be really touchy. Expect many hugs & cuddles. Would do anything for his friends, sometimes a little too much, even if they don’t ask for it. Easy to get along with if you can handle his eccentricities. These days, Julian is still the same old friendly guy but with a more professional vibe. 

♦ (wanted) connections ♦ 

Past (2010) O1 x. Drugdealer - Julian is usually pretty responsible but his need to work as much as possible has led him down a dangerous path, study drugs. Looking for someone who can deal him the good stuff to get him through on minimal sleep. Might involve a bit of debt.  O2 x. Bad Influence - Julian is pretty goody two shoes but I’d love to have someone pull him out to parties (get him out of the library) - make him live a little and not totally regret working through his best years.  O3 x. Mom? - Julian is pretty well known for being that mom friend, so if you need some good influencing, you’ve come to the right place! Just looking for some people he can take care of and be overbearing on.   O4 x. College Sweetheart - Someone he’ll lay down the books for unconditionally, really. He may be a workaholic but he’s also a romantic at heart. Open to any gender.  O5 x. Platonic Cuddles - Julian is just really touchy in general so someone he can just cuddle with without it being weird would be chill. Need some of that wholesome stuff in my life.  O6 x. Good Influence - Julian is usually the good influence but I was thinking someone who brings him food, reminds him to eat, reminds him to sleep, and all that good self care shit he probably needs help with.  Present (2020)  O1 x. Significant Other - Someone he comes home to at the end of the day. Can be married, but maybe not. Take care of my dumbass. Open to any gender. Maybe they dated in uni, doesn’t really matter. Not really set on any details here so let’s talk about it!  O2 x. Uni Friends - People he still hangs out with. Julian mostly stuck around the LA area so anyone else around hit a brother up ✌️  O3 x. Unresolved Tension - Idk maybe someone he had a crush on or vice versa? Make it awkward and weird because I love that. Bring up old memories and feelings.  O4 x. Why weren’t we friends before? - Someone he wasn’t friends with in uni, but somehow met after the fact or maybe they were enemies. Someone he butted heads with but now they’re basically best friends?? 

These are really just some thoughts I had & I might add more later but I’m open to anything and everything so let’s talk about it!! Ofc I’m still looking for more generic plots like friends, hookups, enemies, etc, etc. The possibilities are endless! 

And that’s the end! If you read it all you’re the coolest but it’s also okay if you didn’t because that was a whole lot of bullshit tbh.

As always, spoilers up to The Brightest Fell and October 2018 for the Patreon stories. No spoilers for Night and Silence.

Three books left to go before Night and Silence, I can do this. 

Back to another “What’s Toby up to today” introduction, and at least she’s not being shot by goblin fruit dealers anymore. I do appreciate how we are still dealing with the after-affects of Chelsea’s teleporting, and that it has mostly been kept under wraps. 

Also, puppies. Naaawwwwwwww.

Yes, summon your Queen because she’s currently the only active teleporter you have at the moment. 

I also appreciate the traditional red and white coloring of the Cu Sidhe, that’s a nice touch. 

“Hi, Toby! Hi, Toby’s friends!” Madden is a gift. 

“I will drown you in the ocean and send your parents a very nice card to tell them how sorry I am.” Toby is also a gift. 

Is Quentin’s birthday actually on Lughnasa/August 1? Neat. 

I bet Arden was playing Candy Crush. No way she’s giving up internet. 

Honestly, Toby and Tybalt should elope and then have a big reception with everyone. And when something bad happens there, at least they will already be married. 

Poor Madden. Poor Arden too. 

I do wonder why elfshot actually kills humans and changelings - for some of them, living for a century would kill them but it wouldn’t be instant. 

Whoops, I thought Rhys was Daoine Sidhe, not Tuatha. 

Tia is a good liar. 

Toby basically strong-arms Lowri into taking charge, but hey, no one else was going to do it. 

Good job on not taking Tia with you, Toby. 

Yes Arden, you don’t get to run away from this. You have people depending on you.

Definitely take Quentin with you, Toby. You need him. And he needs to learn how to overthrow the monarchy. 

As far as ambassadors go, you could probably borrow Patrick. 

Yes, Simon would have worked well - too bad you don’t have the elf-shot cure yet. Apparently he got titled for being so annoying in other Kingdoms that they sued for peace just to get him to leave, but Patrick’s stories prove there’s more to it. 

Looks like Jazz does need the band on to transform. 

Hi Luidaeg, hi Walther. I spent a couple chapters thinking he was the prince to Silences. 

Time to assemble the troops, because Toby can’t pop in and out of places in SF like she did last book. 

Hey, Toby gets to sleep for once!

I don’t understand the cover art in this series - Toby has curly hair and is wearing some sort of peasant blouse. Not exactly like a tank top and stick straight hair.

Yeah, Walther hasn’t been back to Arden’s Court since she was installed, has he? 

On to Portland!

Hi Marlis, good job on not reacting to Walther. 

“I do not have time to allow my coders to be slaughtered. It seems very inefficient.” Hi April!

Dear God this place is horrible. 

Toby’s dress isn’t the one on the cover either. 

How exactly do you get a half-human Hamadryad? 

Fuck you Rhys. And the false Queen too. 

Yes Toby, you should depose every bad monarch on the West Coast. I approve of this plan. And Walther can’t be King because he wants tenure. 

Oh Queenie, you shouldn’t have pushed. You could have had it all and lost it. 

Hi Ceres! Yes, please bribe the rose goblins into doing what you want. 

How many Blodynbryd are there? At least four of Acacia’s children, or does that include the Dryads? Luna and her sister seem more human-like than Toby’s descriptions of Dryads.

So Walther at least didn’t get the cliffsnotes version of The Winter Long. Or maybe he needed the unabridged version.

“What did you do to your sister”? 

“Isn’t that a question that should have been asked before you fed her the second cookie? As, you know, a thought?”

“Walther has never poisoned Marlis before, so it seemed unnecessary.”

Ceres, you are a cool aunt.  

Poor Marlis. 

Sweet, go overthrow another throne, Toby. Be a hero. 

For all that Toby thinks no one would have batted a eye at May and Jazz’s relationship a hundred years ago, Sylvester definitely did when January came out as a lesbian. And why haven’t we seen other same-sex couples in places of power in the main stories? 

Also, adoption is apparently fine but the only one we’ve seen is April. She is the only non-blood heir we’ve seen.  

Die in a fire, Rhys. May is not having a good field trip. 

Yes, let’s be hipsters. 

Great Big Sea is still a great band. And of course Quentin wants to visit Powell’s. 

You should have burned the clothes. 

Hi Jolgier! I love how you can’t stand Amandine. 

How exactly did Tybalt come to SF? The last Patreon story has him firmly in London. I hope Colleen’s alright. 

Voodoo Donuts!

Tybalt on the bus is hilarious. This is an educational field trip for all involved. Quentin gets to go to Powell’s, Tybalt learns how to use the bus system, May gets elf-shot. 

“The bus knows.” 

Poor May. She needs better field trips. Poor Quentin too.

“I hate this Kingdom. I hate everything about it. There is nothing in Silences that I do not hate.” 

“Noted, and under the circumstances, not offended.” 

Right, Evening made the elf-shot deadly to humans, and not in the “coma for the rest of your life” way. 

Fuck you Rhys. I will be glad when you get elf-shot and Siwan has you cut into parts. 

Well, Walther, you can still marry and provide your father with heirs if you and Cassandra want children. I’m sure you can figure something out. Though you don’t need to marry? How does Faerie treat fae children born out of wedlock? Cassandra’s fae too, and it wouldn’t be adultery because no one’s married. 

I am pretty sure Eira knows how to dreamwalk to people other than Karen - I think she’s been visiting Simon and that’s why he doesn’t want to be elf-shot after TBF again.

I wonder if April could make phones for Ceres and Acacia so they can talk more often. 

I don’t think we’ve met a Huldra yet.

Fuck you, Rhys.

Hi Karen!

Let Marlis stab Rhys, please.

“Home decor is not currently our priority.” “It should be”

And Toby gets elf-shot again.

Walther my boy!

Rhys and the Queen get to sleep for a long time. I still want Marlis to be able to punch them a lot. 

Next up: say hi to the High King and Queen again while even more people get elf-shot.
