Warnings: guns, swearing, and violence. Please let me know if I missed any!

A/N: Part 5 is finally here! My computer survived the war! All is well! Thank you to everyone who deals with my random upload schedule, I promise it’ll get better soon. Also! Appearances from Triple H. I know they aren’t technically a group anymore BUT CUBE CAN PRY THEM FROM MY COLD, DEAD HANDS. Also I wrote Hyuna with such intense dom vibes lmao, but like, anyone who’s seen Roll Deep will get it.

Summary: a virus has wiped out most of humanity, and society has collapsed. People survive in groups where they live in constant fear and a struggle to survive. Women were the primary victim of the virus, leaving few behind. You are one of the few, kept in secret since the beginning. However, you’ve just been caught.

Masterlist

The day had finally come. The day of the monthly meeting with Jaebum and his crew had finally arrived. Everyone had spent the morning loading and prepping the truck, some more quickly than others. While Felix had spent what felt like hours hauling sacks of produce onto the truck bed, Hyunjin simply dropped off the the skins and meat in one solid trip. The group had the uncanny ability to make you feel calm in nervous situations, but you could still feel anticipation growing beneath your skin.

Moments later, Hyunjin is setting up targets near the fence. It became a ritual for you to watch as he practices his aim. Usually you sit nearby, keeping him company or complimenting his shots. He usually did this much later in the day, so you figured he must be trying to fit it in while you’re here.

You head over and plop down beside him, sitting in the grass as he stood beside you, crossbow in hand. “Hey Jinnie.”

He shoots, hitting the first can in amongst eight others. “Hey. You feeling okay?”

You nod, keeping an eye on the next can. “I’m doing good. Thanks for keeping me occupied.”

He hits the second can and smirks, “It’s for me too. I got all used to you keeping me company during practice.” He shoots again, hitting the target. “It’ll pretty boring without you now.”

You could feel heat rushing to your cheeks, “You could just ask one of the other guys. I’m sure Jisung will have tons of free time while I’m gone.”

He looks at you from the corner of his eye. “He isn’t you, trust me.”

Your breath hitched. These hints of subtle intimacy were not uncommon for Hyunjin, but you had yet to get used to them.

He lowered the crossbow and looked at you. “Why don’t you give it a shot? Wanna try the crossbow?”

You smiled from ear to ear, you’d been waiting for that offer for quite awhile. You shook your head no, before answering, “I’d rather use the bow.”

He cocked an eyebrow in curiosity, before leaning over to pick one of his bows from the pile beside him. “Are you sure? The crossbow would be easier.”

You shook your head again. “Not for me.”

You stood beside him, and slid an arrow into place, inhaling as you closed one eye, lining up your shot. Little did he, or anyone here for that matter, know, your mother was a survivalist. She was paranoid about the apocalypse long before it reared it’s ugly head. By extension, you were truly a skilled marksman, with a few other skills up your sleeve. It’s been a minute since you’ve had access to a bow, so you’ve had your eyes on Hyunjin’s collection for awhile.

As you exhaled, you released the arrow, hitting the can at the center of it’s label. Hyunjin placed his hands on your shoulder to turn you towards him. Once your gaze met, you could see his eyes, wide from excitement. “That was great! Hitting on your first try? You could probably learn to shoot in no time!”

You hadn’t seen this much enthusiasm from the man since you’ve been here, and you wanted more. Not to mention, that comment about “Learning to shoot” had sparked something in you. Bold of him to assume you weren’t better at it than he was.

You pulled out of his grasp and faced the targets again. A smirk crept onto your face as you readied the next arrow between your fingertips. Showtime.

You shot four arrows in quick succession, knocking the remaining cans down, before turning back to Hyunjin. His eyes were wide, and his mouth had fallen open from surprise. Gathering himself, he turned to you. He spoke in his signature, calm tone.

“You’re gonna start hunting with me after you get back. There’s no way this talent is going to waste.”

You shrugged. “Good luck convincing the others.”

He narrowed his eyes at you. “Doesn’t matter what they think. They don’t control you.” He paused for a moment, before leaning back down to rummage through the pile. “Can you handle a firearm?”

You nodded. “I know my way around one.”

He sat back up, a silver revolver with a reddish brown handle in his palm. “Take this with you. You’re more than capable of protecting yourself, don’t let those idiots out there tell you otherwise.”

You smiled softly at him, “Thanks Hyunjin. I’ll see you in a couple days.”

In the distance, you heard a truck starting, and the sound of Chan calling you name. With his eyes still on you, Hyunjin placed a hand on your shoulder. “See ya in a couple days.”

It took a moment for you to get used to the wind, as you’ve never ridden in the back of a truck before. Amongst the several sacks of food and supplies, a little area had been cleared out, with a few blankets and pillows laid out. It was just you and Felix in the back, the two of you huddled under the blankets surrounded in a few books and your respective backpacks. You’d made sure to keep yours out of the way, since it contained the secret revolver that Hyunjin had given you. You hadn’t told the others because you already knew what their reaction would be.

Felix was curled up next to you, his head resting on your chest and his limbs tangled with yours. He claimed it was for “warmth”, but you knew he was just in a cuddly mood. Behind the wheel was Chan, and Changbin was in the passenger’s seat. The truck couldn’t fit much else, so it was just the four of you going. Besides, they needed as many people as possible to manage things back at the farmhouse. Jisung had originally wanted to go with you, but he had to stay back to cover Changbin’s guard shift. Better believe he threw the biggest fit about it too.

A soft snore escaped Felix’s lips, pulling you from your thoughts. His faded, orange hair was messily sprawled across his face, due to a bump you’d recently hit in the road. You stared at him with a smile and leaned down, moving the strands from behind his face and tucking it behind his ear. Your smile grew as his face was revealed, he had been smiling slightly in his sleep. He was undoubtedly the sweetest thing you’ve ever seen. He was wearing an oversized, fleece sweatshirt, that when wrapped around you felt like you were being held by a cloud, and even though you’d found the warmth excuse he’d made earlier to be quite amusing, you couldn’t deny that he kept you warm.

Without much thought, you looked up at the front of the truck. Chan was focused on the road, whistling something under his breath. Your gaze moved to the right, and you spotted Changbin staring down at Felix, a scowl on his lips. His gaze flitted up, and you locked eyes for a moment. You just stared in curiosity and Changbin blinked in shock, before whirling back around his seat, pretending to pay attention to the road.

Eventually, it began to grow dark. You had first noticed this while reading to Felix (who was still fused to you), when the words got harder and harder to see. Felix insisted you stop, upon noticing you squint.

“You can finish reading me the chapter later, I don’t wanna hurt your eyes.”

You ruffled his hair. “I’m fine Felix, but sure. We’ll finish it later.”

Felix grinned, “Promise?”

Chan shushed him from the front. Felix looked annoyed, but when the two of you looked up, his annoyance faded into worry. Chan and Chanbin were looking out the window anxiously, trying to get a better view of something. You squirmed from Felix’s grasp and looked over the edge of the trunk. You didn’t see much, besides an abandoned shack a little far off. You looked back at Chan to make sure you were seeing the same thing.

Felix sat up too, worry lacing his tone. “Chan, what’s wrong?”

In response, Chan turned off the headlights and stopped the car, taking a deep breath. “Changbin saw lights on in that building a bit ago. They just turned off.”

Changbin added, “This is JYP territory. We’d know if someone was staying there.”

Chan looked back at you, clearly trying to seem calm. “They could just be squatters.”

“That’s the best case scenario. Be ready for anything.” Murmured Changbin.

Felix and you sat next to each other, simply watching as Chan and Chanbin continue their hushed conversation. Wordlessly, Felix took your hand in his, giving it a squeeze.

You looked up at him, and he murmured, “Everything’s gonna be fine. Those two are badasses. Nothing bad is gonna happen to you while they’re here.”

You squeeze his hand back, grateful for the reassurance. You sneak a glance at your backpack, planning silently on how to get it out if you need it. Truthfully, you were worried about Felix. In his mind, he was a protector. In reality, he had very little combat experience, and was actually the one in need of protection. You knew he was rusty.

Chan leaned back and looked at Felix, “You come with me. Changbin’s gonna stay with Y/N.”

He nodded before letting go of your hand, replacing it with a pistol, and hopping over the side of the truck. Changbin simply pulled a rifle from his lap and positioned it out the window. The two of you watched as Felix and Chan disappeared towards the shack.

It had been a few minutes, and you anxiously tapped your feet, willing them to come back soon and safe. The grump with the rifle sighed, “Stop it. You’re distracting me.”

You huff. “We should be in there, helping.”

He opened his mouth, about to argue back, when the sound of a gunshot blasted in the distance. You both jump at the sound, and dread seeps into you. Who just shot that? Who was on the receiving end? You scramble over to your bag and begin to fish around for the revolver. You cursed yourself for hiding it at the bottom. Upon finding it, you tuck it in your pants and leap over the side of the truck, ready to bolt towards the house. Before you can move a foot, you feel a hand grasp your forearm, keeping you in place. You whip your head back to face Changbin, ready to snap, but stop when you see genuine concern in his eyes.

“Y/N. Do you have the gun that Hyunjin gave you?”

Your eyes narrow, “How do you know about that?”

“I just do.” He pauses, “You shouldn’t go in there. I don’t want you to go in there.”

You were growing frustrated, every second you wasted here was another that Chan or Felix could be bleeding out. You shot back with venom in your tone, “Why do you care?”

His gaze faltered for a moment, and you weren’t sure, but for that moment he looked almost...hurt. But then he narrowed his eyes, becoming as cold as before. He dropped your arm and spoke in a low tone. “I don’t. Go ahead.”

You froze for a second, staring at him. He had distracted you for only a few moments before you whip around, and begin tearing towards the shack.

You tunnel-vision towards the door, barely noticing your surroundings as your legs carry you as fast as they can towards the front. You skid to a halt, and you find your speed from before is gone. You’re terrified. Not knowing what’s behind the door, your hands shake as you reach for the handle, then you take a breath and push it open.

Directly in front of you, completely oblivious to your presence, is a man hastily throwing things into a suitcase. You can see the panic on his face as he trembles, scrambling to find various necessities for some unknown, urgent reason. Was the gunshot his?

You take a step forward, and a large creak sounds from the wooden floor. He spins to face you, his straight, blond hair sticking to parts of his tear-soaked face. At first glance, he didn’t seem too intimidating. He was certainly more scared than you were, and his freckles and messy hair reminded you of Felix. You spoke in the most intimidating voice you could manage.

“Where are they?”

He squeezed his eyes shut and shook his head, “I d-don’t know.”

You took another step forward, hand resting on the handle of the gun still tucked away. You may not even need it. “Tell me where they are!”

His eyes shot open and he put his hands in front of him in surrender, “I don’t know w-what’s happening. P-please don’t hurt me.”

You gaze softened. There’s no way he did anything. He’s terrified and clueless. There must be other people here. You began to move your hand away from the handle when you felt a click next to your temple.

“Don’t. Move.”

You heart sunk, and you held your breath, body frozen in place. You were so focused on the scared, blond guy that you hadn’t noticed someone else enter. You could feel the metal from the tip of the gun press into the skin on your forehead, sending a chill throughout your body.

The person spoke again, it was a woman’s voice. “Put the gun on the floor. Nice and slow.”

You moved your hand back to the gun and slowly took it out, leaning down to set it on the floor before standing back up. You gaze flickered back to the guy. The fear didn’t seem like an act, but relief was clear in his face. He hiccuped, still recovering from his previous crying fit. “H-hyuna...I’m sorry, I didn’t know there was anyone else…”

You heard her voice from beside you, “Shh...Hyojong, it’s okay. Get behind me.”

As quickly as she spoke, he scampered behind her, leaving you to stare at the wall. You tried to push it away, but you could feel the panic rising. Your knees were weak, and your hands shook at your sides. The woman named Hyuna spoke again.

“Turn around so I can see you.”

Slowly, you turned towards her, praying that she wouldn’t shoot you. When you finally stood to face her, you could see brilliant orange curls framing her face and shoulders. Her large brown eyes stared into your soul, and everything about them screamed “Danger”. Despite this, you gathered the courage you had, and stared her down. “Where are my friends?”

She narrowed her eyes at you, pulling the gun away slightly, though it was still pointed at your head. “I was gonna ask you the same thing.” and without taking her eyes off you, she addresses the frightened man behind her, “Hyojong, did Hoetaek come inside at all?”

He shook his head, “I haven’t seen him. She’s the only one to come in before you. She doesn’t know anything either.”

Your eyes widen as she cocks the gun, her gaze growing dark, “She’s no help then. No point in keeping her alive.”

You squeeze your eyes shut and bite your lip, bracing for impact. Many faces flash through your head, faces of family, new and old friends, the group you were growing to love….and Jiho.

You could feel tears begin to gather at the corners of your eyes as the realization hit you. If you die now, that prison was the last time you’d ever see him.

And for a reason you can’t explain, the image of Changbin staring at you with that hurt expression, just before he released your arm, was stronger than all the others. Why him? Why should you give a shit about him?

And then you heard a bang...but you felt nothing. You heard Hyuna shrieking in front of you, and your eyes fluttered open in confusion. Hyuna laid crumpled on the ground, clutching her calf as she hissed in pain. Hyojong had his arms around her, muttering nonsensically in a reignited sense of panic, tears bubbling in his eyes and running down his face.

In slight shock, you look around quickly, only to see Changbin standing a few feet away, with your revolver in his hand, still pointed at Hyuna.

Hyuna and E’Dawn: My Thoughts

So just recently, and by just recently I mean literally a day or two ago, Cube Entertainments E’Dawn and Hyuna were rumored, rumor denied by their company, and then confirmed to be in a relationship.

To say that there was some blowing up of the KPOP side of the internet is an understament.

So here are my thoughts and opinions on this whole ‘scandal’.

Idols are not your property, they should be able to date without consequences.

I believe that is actually quite a popular opinion in the KPOP fandom. Idols should be able to freely date whom they want as long as the relationship is not something that is publicly toxic to that person. AKA as long as our favorite idols aren’t being harmed in the relationship it should be acceptable for them to fall in love and date.

Unfortunately, there are still people who see their idols as - how should I say? -objects rather than people. So they tend to be in favor of their idols not dating anyone because of delusion. Delusion that one day they will meet and fall in love or the delusion that these idols owe them their life because of the amount of support they give them.

If you actually believe that an idol or anyone famous owes you for the support you have given them, then I think you should really step back into reality. No one owes you anything. And if you think that PENTAGON’s E’Dawn was going to fall in love with you, you should probably get your head out of the clouds. That’s not gonna happen.

With that being said, Hyuna, Triple H, and PENTAGON should not have to face consequences because of this. The fact that fans are acting the way they are is childish.

Hyuna was selfish in confirming their relationship

I feel like some will give me backlash about this. Mostly Hyuna fans who believe she hasn’t done anything wrong and other KPOP fans who don’t think her actions will impact Triple H and PENTAGON, but you have to take in the numbers and think about them.

The fans who ARE delusional about their idols are the ones who are buying up all the merch, streaming videos like crazy, voting for them like crazy, etc. (I am not calling all fans who do this crazy, but I mean, I don’t know. I find it crazy how some people can purchase SO MUCH merch and SO MANY versions of different albums, and find ways to vote like 100 times a day and stream the video from like 20 different IP addresses at the same time. It’s dedication that borderlines on crazy. I’m sorry. It’s true. Like I am 23 years old, work 8:30am to 5:30pm, and barely have enough money to pay my student loans and other bills, where the hell are y’all getting all this free time and money?)

It’s why most idol companies tend to ignore the crazy fans, because those are the fans who are investing the most money into those groups, those are the fans who may be investing in stock for the company. Those crazy fans are the ones who are allowing the group to thrive (not in all cases, but in most yes). Whether you want to believe it or not.

They are not selfish because they wanted a relationship, they are selfish because their relationship is going to negatively impact the careers of the people they work with.

It shouldn’t, but it will.

Hyuna, although she will get negative backlash, will be able to continue on with her career quite smoothly. She is a veteran to the industry, so something like this will not harm her too extensively. Especially since her image tends to run on a more controversial spectrum.

Triple H and PENTAGON however, will be taking a big hit because of this.

It’s just the nature of dating in the KPOP Idol World. Idols actions and scandals tend to affect not only the idol in question, but the group they are apart of as well.

Because E’Dawn and Hyuna confirmed their relationship, the boys of PENTAGON may lose a massive number of their fans and the support those fans gave them. Simply because a good chunk of them are those crazy delusional fans. We have to keep in mind, PENTAGON is not only a rookie group, but they come from a small company. So loosing even a few fans is going to hurt them.

Bouncing back from this is going to difficult. Not impossible, just difficult.

It is sad to even call them selfish, E’Dawn and Hyuna, as I am sure they are probably extremely selfless people (I have never met them, but they seem like they would be nice). However, you can’t sit there and blindly say this situation won’t impact PENTAGON or Triple H. Whether you want it to or not, whether it should or it shouldn’t, enough fans are upset. And people tend to be more rash and do negative things when fueled by anger.

When you sign a contract, you sign your life away in the Idol World

I am a huge supporter of Idols being treated like human beings. I am big supporter of everyone being treated like human beings.

With that being said there are some sacrifices Idols, specifically rookie idols, need to make when they sign their contracts.

One of those is that your life is no longer your life.

You are now a music machine, you eat, sleep, wake up and think about music or acting or whatever they need you to do in your Idol World. It sucks, but its in the contract (or most of them).

From a business point of view it makes sense, in the first few years of your debut you should be focusing on making music, finding and creating your image, and growing a fan base.

From a humanitarian POV this is an unrightful restriction on a persons personal life, but these people didn’t sign these contracts to continue to have a personal life. They didn’t sign these contracts to be famous and continue to do whatever they wanted (at least not in the rookie years). It’s just not how this business works.

They signed that contract because they wanted to be singers, dancers, rappers, because they wanted to make music because they love music, they wanted to change the world, and because they wanted to be famous. They did not sign a contract to have a ‘normal’ life.

So, in conclusion to this mess of a rant:

People need to stop treating Idols like property.

They are not your property, they are human beings who make mistakes and have feelings

So just because your FAVE is no longer available does not mean you should stop supporting them

On the opposite end, idols need to realize that being ‘normal’ does not go with being an idol.

Generally speaking, you can’t be famous and normal.

It’s just not how it works.

Hyuna should have talked with her management (assuming that she didn’t do that in the first place) and tried to compromise on an official statement rather than going off on her own

Especially since Cube had already released an official statement refuting the rumors

This, in turn, can hurt Cube’s credibility on future statements relating to similar rumors

I get that you didn’t want to lie to your fans, but because of what you did, you may have negatively impacted the careers of 10 rookie idols, 9 of which have nothing to do with this

And I get that we live in this world ‘free of consequence’ but yeah no we don’t. Even ‘normal’ people have to tend to the consequences their actions may have reaped, this is nothing short of the same thing

It is, however, unfortunate that simply dating someone would reap such heavy consequences.

Some fans seriously need to get their heads out of the clouds

I, personally, support the relationship. Like they are cute as hell together. And will continue to support Hyuna, PENTAGON, and Triple H. It is very sad that some fans will leave a fandom just because their FAVE Idoll is in a relationship.

If you believe any of my information is incorrect please feel free to correct me. I’d rather be corrected that have a post that is showcasing false information.

If you share my opinion or don’t share my opinion, please feel free to let me know!

Let’s just try to be nice about it please.

Top 20 Kpop Album Tracks & B Sides of 2018:  Numbers 15-11

LINK TO NUMBERS 20-16

15. BoA - Irreversible

BoA is certified legend in the Korean music scene. She’s currently one of the longest running artist still pumping out music and in 2018 she released not only her ninth full album to date, Woman, but also released a Korean mini album and a full length Japanese album. Listening to all of that and finding one song was hard, but I think Irreversible is a song worth anyone’s time.

This mid tempo song may not seem particularly exciting on first listen but additional listens reveals a song with a great sense of progression and heart. Up to this point I haven’t really mentioned lyrical content as a positive, but BoA really sells it in this song. Discussing a relationship that has reached a point of no return, BoA proves why she deserves her status as a legend. 

14. Jonghyun - Rewind 

Rest in Peace, Jonghyun.

Poet Artist, is a great album and a wonderful final statement from Jonghyun. Other than the excellent, and heart wrenching, Before Our Spring, Rewind quickly became a song that became stuck in my head.

Mostly due to the house influenced beat and style, but also because of Jonghyun’s whispering vocals. Definitely check out the rest of the album if you haven’t already.

13. Triple H - Show Me

2018 was a year of many great debuts and beginning, but also a year of tragedy and endings. Triple H was one of those. After a dating scandal that caused Cube Entertainment to lose both Hyuna and E’Dawn, Triple H lost two members and all but certainly disbanded.

Thankfully they released one last project before dissolving. Show Me, is a pretty faithful 90′s R&B song that doesn’t try and do anything too different, however this sincerity makes it work so well. Especially when you have a singer like Hui showing why he makes so many of Pentagon’s songs so special.

12. Monsta X - Heart Attack

Monsta X had a similar story for me as WJSN this year. I wasn’t really familiar with them until the beginning of this year until they released the excellent title track, Jealousy. But I still wasn’t sure if I should check them out. Until, Shoot Out came out that is.

Their second full length album Take 1. Are You There?, is great as a total package, but Heart Attack is the track that I find myself randomly singing at work. It’s just a song with excellent build up and pay off. Starting off with a ferocious rap verse from Jooheon that smoothly transitions into a pre-chorus that then crashes into a chorus led by secret vocal powerhouse Hyungwon.

And then the song has an a capella esque bridge with Jooheon and Kihyun trading ad libs. The song just keeps delivering attitude verse after verse and refuses to let up, and I can’t get enough of it. 

11. SHINee - All Day All Night

If I had made this list based off which songs made me feel the best then this and every other song from SHINee’s story of light series would have filled up all of the slots. Yes, these albums are all that good. And yes, this song that starts off the entire series is that amazing.

Instead of my usual descriptions I’m just going to list the reasons this song is amazing:

-the birds chirping at the beginning making it seem like it really is morning

-the elastic quality of the bass playing throughout the song

-the random ‘oh!’ and ‘ah’ you can hear during the pre chorus section

-the distortion on Minho’s verse before the chorus starts

-the entirety of the chorus

-Minho’s rap verse after the chorus that transitions into Key rapping

-Onew’s vocal tone when contrasted against Taemin

-the damn chorus

-Onew and Key hitting high notes effortlessly during the Bridge and then also hitting incredible adlib high notes during the last verse

-Taemin’s singing in general

-the chorus, all of it

[yoyoplisetsky]

I was sick for like half of this week which probably explains why this list is so long? Unfortunately didn’t write much, bc a lot of what i’m doing is behind the scenes stuff with no visible results rn (working on my shitbang fic, working on a few things that I haven’t finished yet). However, I read like 20+ super amazing fics??? As always, pls rec me any you’ve written/enjoyed, because I want to read them so much!! 

What I Read This Week (7/9-7/16)

I Don’t Know ‘Bout Me but I Know About You - ouroboros - @ouroborosbites - Set at the GPF a year-ish pre-canon. JJ, having a sexuality crisis, propositions Victor, who, having not found his direction through Yuuri yet, is enough of a mess to accept. (My review: JJ/Viktor? And I enjoyed it? No, seriously, surprisingly good!!)

Let Me Sail Across the Sea for there is Never One Who Loved You More Than Me - tothebatcave53 - @tothebatcave53 - Victor has always loved the ocean, he is drawn to it's beauty and it's power. He sets out, a simple day in a simple boat with a simple desire to just exist in peace out in the ocean. When Victor wakes it is to the turmoil of the waves, desperate to sink him and his tiny boat into it's murky depths. It is only the most beautiful hallucination that keeps Victor sane in what he assumes are his last moments. (My review: AHHHH guys i always need mermaid aus i’m fricken screaming this one is so a+ everyone read it)

i’m someone you maybe might love - xylophones - @xyloophones -  Viktor sighs. “It’s nothing. It’s just––you never look at me like this.” / “How am I looking at you?” / “Like I’m someone special. Like I’m someone you might love.” / Yuuri frowns. “You are someone I love.” / Viktor shakes his head and laughs, just on this side of bitter. “Not like that, Yuuri.” / (Or: Viktor is not as observant as he thinks he is.) (My review: this is a super precious high school au that i would suggest to everyone because it’s so many amazing tropes wrapped up in one fic)

come with me and escape - La_Temperanza - @teekettle - Viktor meets a hypnotizing stranger dancing in the club and, well, things just naturally progress from there. (My review: hooooo boy nsfw viktuuri week is a Treat. yes. i love this. this is a good trope)

For Your Eyes Only - opalish - tumblr unknown (pls tell me if you know?) - Yuuri once told Victor that Phichit was the only foreign skater he considered a friend. Yuuri lied. He's been Seung-gil's dirty little secret for well over a year. (My review: O H MY GOD so that art of seunggil and yuuri being friends is one of my favorites so i’m ??? so glad someone acted on it)

black box (Ch. 1) - SKnight - @sephknight​ - The entire world is thrown into madness when all the best actors team up for a new TV show about... skating? Doesn't matter, all the fans know is that this means roughly 273.15% more ice cube jokes, the potential resurrection of some dead memes, and 9999% more Victuuri to scream about and die from. The fans have been thirsty for more Katsuki-Nikiforov co-starred content since 2011, and this oncoming show about ice could just be the thing to quench that thirst. ...Oh god, the bad jokes are already starting. (My review: look we all know i have a Thing for fics with fake social media and this one is ALL fake social media so i’m pumped to see more)

third time lucky - katsukiy - @yuriplisetsk​ - This year, for Tanabata, Viktor decided to wish for something a little different. (My review: not even double but Triple yuuri!!! oh god we all know here that i have a Thing for multiples, but this is so good)

Dinner For Two - Yuripaws - @yuripaws​  - Viktor dreams of two delicious bowls of katsudon only to find that he isn't invited to dinner. But he is invited to the show. (My review: MORE. DOUBLE. YUURI. guys i’ll never be sick of this trope and this one is so a+ with our desperate viktor mmm yes)

love’s not a competition (but i’m winning) (Ch. 1) - LittleLostStar, spookyfoot - @iwritevictuuri​, @katsukiyuuristrophyhusband​ - Victor Nikiforov is the leader of the best burlesque revue in the city, and well on his way to achieving his dream goal of a Upper-Level Lesser Kardashian-level stardom, complete with his own reality TV show. So when rival burlesque dancer Yuuri Katsuki scoops Victor's theme night and refuses to back down (or fire those hips that will not quit), it doesn't take long before war is declared—a tense and glittery battle featuring anarchic stagehands, orange light gels, fake eyelashes...and some occasional hate-sex that may not be hate-sex at all. (My review: give me more glitter or give me death! you can expect nothing else from spooky and star than just the absolute best and that’s this.)

Here Comes The Sun - henrywinter (bakkhant) - @bakkhanalia​ - Written for YOI Catfish Prompt Party 2017, for the prompt ‘apocalypse au with it being their last day on earth!’. This...probably isn't what you wanted. (My review: ahh such a cool au!! i love the take on the prompt they had and it was so well written :))

Partner, Let Me Upgrade You (Series - Parts 1-4, Ch. 1-6 (Part 1), Ch. 1-2 (Part 3) - cuttlemefish - @cuttlemefishwrites​ - Z’s Popstar AU (My review: z, i was going to rec all of these individually but then my rec list would hvae gone on for like 50 years. but asfkl; i finally got around to reading it and i’m dying for my Extra sons)

Baby, I’m Preying on You Tonight (Ch. 8) - cuttlemefish - @cuttlemefishwrites​ - Yuuri and Phichit registered and named the pet shop when they were drunk. They didn’t exactly expect it to become the most popular pet shop in Seattle. (It was only supposed to be a front to fund Phichit’s (undercover) animal rescue missions.) Enter Viktor Nikiforov, the man with the pink Cadillac and the giant brown poodle (that's stolen Yuuri's heart), and Yuuri might have lost his mind, because apparently he keeps flirting with a client – and he never even notices. (My review: the jjs will never cease to slay me. viktor and chris especially cute in this chapter)

patellofemoral pain syndrome (Ch. 3) - seventhstar - @pencilwalla​ - It’s just…does Viktor not get bored with doing it the same way every night? Doesn’t he want to spice things up? Is Yuuri being unreasonable? He’s pretty sure that if Viktor told him his performance in bed was unsatisfying his soul would flee his body for a more merciful plane of existence, but…Viktor is thicker-skinned than he is. And so here they are. Viktor’s bed is wide and soft, and Yuuri is lying there with wet hair and ratty boxers while Viktor absently trails kisses over his shoulder. It’s nice. It’s soft. It’s good. Viktor’s headboard is enormous and Yuuri keeps thinking about Viktor’s wrists bound to it, black rope over white skin. Fuck. He should say something. (My review: mmm arthritis porn except nuri didn’t give me porn this chapter)

conjecture - seventhstar - @pencilwalla​ - The first is that he and his new husband are now alone, and will continue to be alone until they reach Yu-topia. Yuuri has never been gregarious, and finds it difficult to make prolonged conversation with strangers at parties; he dreads having to speak to Viktor for so many hours. If his aunt’s description of him is accurate, the only thing they have in common is a love for money, and that is hardly wedding night conversation. The second is that when Yuuri finally looks at Viktor, rather than looking anywhere but directly at him as he has been, he realizes that Viktor is… (My review: have i mentioned that i love this series? i have, but.... it’s just,,, so good.)

By Anointment Only - La_Temperanza - @teekettle​ - He starts with the feet.It makes the most sense. After all, a figure skater’s greatest commodity is often their feet, taking the brunt of the damage required to hone their craft. He knows whatever tender loving care he gives now isn't enough to erase years of self-inflicted abuse, not in a single session. But it doesn't mean he's not going to at least try.So, Viktor starts with the feet. But the thing is, he rarely gets much further than that. (My review: FOOT FETISH i hate feet and this story was still a+)

The Katsulanont Guide to Surviving College (Rice Cooker Required) - xylophones - @xyloophones - It’s Phichit’s fault. It’s always Phichit’s fault. (Or: A friendship told through three hamsters, a rice cooker, and the resurrected trade-and-barter system.) (My review: i think i laughed like 3/4 of this story it’s just,,, so in character for them and ridiculous)

Colored Pencils and Markers - RainyTea - @rainyteawrites - Viktor finds Yuuri’s poster collection, but there’s another surprise in there too. (My review: yuuri’s poster collection with a twist ;) ;) loved it)

Wanted: Skating Lessons - slightlied - @forovnix​ - Wanted: Skating Lessons / Hi. I am Victor and I need to learn how to skate before Saturday. My parents have been paying for me to get skating lessons every week for the last fifteen years but I never actually attended any of the lessons and I spent the money on marble busts instead. Now they want me to perform to ‘Stammi Vicino’ at their wedding anniversary on Saturday. / If you can teach me, be here at Ice Castle tomorrow at 7:27am with an extra pair of skates. I am a fast learner (well, at least my dog Makkachin is–it took me only two weeks to teach him how to roll over) so I am pretty sure I will pick it up quickly. In return, I can teach you how to say some pick-up lines in Russian or tell you some facts about my love life. Whichever you prefer. Not both, though. / Yours sincerely,  / Victor / PS. I’m a size 8 --- Or, Yuuri answers an ad he sees on Ice Castle's community board. (My review: THIS WAS PRECIOUS asdfjkl i loved it so much and i know it’s been around for a while but i just found it and like,,, i’m glad i did)

Meet Your Idol! - RoseusJaeger - @roseus-jaeger​ - Ryuugazaki Rei has been a fan of Katsuki Yuuri since he was in grade school, admiring his beauty and grace on the ice. It's Katsuki's last season on the ice before his marriage to Victor Nikiforov and Rei would do anything for an autograph before his official retirement... or at least he thought until his boyfriend, Nagisa Hazuki, actually plots to get him an autograph at the NHK Cup. (My review: what you probably sort of know about me is that i love free! so this was a great read and roseus did so well with all of the character and i loved it)

(Let’s Get Married) At First Sight - cuttlemefish - @cuttlemefishwrites​ - Yuuri is just your average medical resident trying to survive an emergency room rotation at a large, city hospital, when a perfectly gorgeous stranger interrupts his after-work coffee break with the assumption that Yuuri is his blind date. What’s Yuuri to do? – Pretend he’s definitely on a blind date, too! Or, the "I know you're on a blind date and I'm not the right guy, but it's been a while and now I don't know how to tell you that you sat at the wrong table. Call me?" AU. (My review: this is so super precious asfdsljlk i love that yuuri just went for it instead of correcting him)

He Just Up and Ran Away (So I’m Never Going Back) (Ch. 1-2) - cuttlemefish - @cuttlemefishwrites - The back of the silver card reads Fantasies by Lilia, and Viktor lets his thumb brush over it with intense scrutiny. The name on the front winks at him with the glint of danger: Alex. “Oh, Yuuri, are you cheating on me?” Viktor whispers to himself, crumbling on the bed with the onslaught of a panic attack. Yuuri is Viktor’s everything; the first boyfriend he’s had in almost a decade, after years spent too busy lost between circuitry and code. But then he notices that there’s a stack of similar looking cards that read Celeste, Adrian, Robert, Michael, and Yuuri. All of them read Fantasies by Lilia. Or, welcome to the story in which Viktor discovers his boyfriend Yuuri is a high-class escort who takes on different identities and lives for different clients, including Viktor, who thought he was saving a stripper by putting a ring on his finger. (My review: i hvae read like maybe 1 escort au in this fandom bc i’m always very,,, eh about it but i’ll try anything z does nad it’s??? so good)

Katsuki’s Pet Needs (Ch. 1) - nerdlife4eva - @n3rdlif343va - Yuuri Katsuki owns a small pet store in a little town on the coast. He loves running his own business, and especially loves Sundays when his best friend, Phichit, runs adoption events for his animal rescue organization in his store. Victor Nikiforov has always wanted a dog, excitedly attending the scheduled pet adoption hoping to find his first furever friend. Another universe where these two find each other, this time with a little help from the brown fluff of Makkachin herself. (My review: THIS IS VERY PRECIOUS. if you want shameless fluff, read this!!)

Hunter of Eros (Ch. 4-5) - LalodyBear - @lalody - Lord Eros is perhaps the oldest of all living vampires and a legend among hunters. For thousands of years no-one has been able to slay him and stop his evil reign. Victor Nikiforov is the greatest hunter to have ever lived. ~ After seemingly endless sightings of newborn vampires appearing across Japan, Yakov's hunters are sent to put a stop to it. During a hunt, Victor Nikiforov has his first ever innocent witness to a slaying - Yuuri Katsuki, an utterly adorable local. After being cornered into staying with the group of Russian hunters, Yuuri just prays Victor doesn't find out his secret and slay him in his sleep. (My review: ahh it’s been so long since this updated, and i’m so glad i’m patient because i love this au so much. i don’t even care it took so long like ?? take that long always if you’re gonna give me quality content like that (which i’m sure you will))

About Day6

They are a group under jyp entertainment

The fandom name is MyDay

They used to have six members(that's where the name comes from) but it's rumored that the other one left because he didn't agree with the no dating rule

Jae is the oldest. He was born in Argentina but moved to L.A when he was still a child, that's why he some times still struggles with Korean. He is a vocalist and guitar player

Next is Sungjin, the leader. He just shaved his head today because he was in the mood. He is like jae a guitar player but the main vocalist

YoungK is a bassist and the a vocal. He is often called Brian, which is the name he choose when he went to high School in Canada. He's also a rapper and is one of the main song writers (he wrote all the songs on the newest album)

Wonpil is part one of the maknae line. He plays the keyboard and synthesizer. His love for the maknae is undeniable and Dowoon is like the little brother he never had. His voice range is slightly higher when he sings and his eyes are a slightly crossed (makes him even more adorable of you ask me)

Dowoon joined the band as am extra so he is not one of the "founding members". He plays the Drum and is taking vocal lessons that really pay off. His voice is also really deep

Also many refer to jae as chicken little and Sungjin as Bob the builder because their looks are familiar
