#don't agree w/ his politics in the slightest and while he's not as much of a grump as alan moore he's still a bit of a curmudgeon

[antimony-medusa]

Okay this is 100% discourse, so maybe avert your eyes if you don't want to see me wail at the heavens, but for a fandom so anxious about boundaries, we haven't actually been very good in practice at respecting the actual stated boundaries the streamers put down, and I think it shows what we're actually policing, which is not things to make the streamers comfortable, it's stuff to make us comfortable.

This ranges from inventing new boundaries for people (you can't use neopronouns for ranboo, their pronouns are he/they; there's no boundaries on dark content for streamers so obviously we have to invent and enforce dark sbi rules ourselves) and then harassing people based on those boundaries that we just made up, to ignoring the actual things that the streamers said if we don't agree with them (cc!dream said he was uncomfortable with gore art back during the revolutionary war/exile but he's a villain, right, so we can just do whatever we want with the character, right?) and just doing whatever we want.

This is a recurring problem, with people violently policing boundaries that the fandom has all agreed on, to the point of doxxing and harassment and death threats, and ignoring boundaries that they have decided "don't make sense".

Like here's the example I put in the tags earlier, which is Technoblade related. Everyone knows that family dynamic is great and shipping is a no-go, right? But if you actually go looking for the clips, (or listen to streams in the background recursively while you're doing other things), you'll find that what Technoblade said about shipping was that it was "kinda cringe" (I think the list of things he said was cringe included reading percy jackson books and talking like you're better at video games than you actually are), and he was MUCH stronger in saying that he didn't like family dynamic in canon, saying that he didn't like it, that it was non-canon, and he'd never betray his family like that.

But if you look at the entire "found family" tag on Ao3, 19,860 stories, Technoblade is tagged into 29% of them. That's 5,760 fics just blowing right past what Technoblade said. Boom. Taking that character from his political anarchist setting and setting him right down in a royalty au w. younger siblings.

Because obviously a family dynamic isn't actually going to hurt someone's feelings or make them feel weird, the fandom has agreed, so what he must mean was that saying that family dynamic was actual literal canon is the only bad thing (I have been clotheslined by family dynamic written into stuff tagged as "canon compliant" multiple times as well,) and we can continue with the fun family stuff, right? Because someone saying they don't like family dynamic doesn't make Sense, in the way that I like it, the fandom has agreed, so we can just ignore that clip. Honestly I think that a ton of people have no idea that Technoblade ever said anything negative about family dynamic, because that clip is never brought out or talked about. I literally only know about it because I've watched that stream.

Meanwhile, the much less firmly stated boundary when it comes to shipping is absolutely doubled down on and brought out to justify mobbing people off the internet, because everyone already knows that shipping is bad and terrible and tainted and horrible to do and we don't like it, so even the slightest indication that it's out has to be grabbed and used to police people. So that everyone can be very to sure themselves that what they're doing is not weird, and the streamers are okay with it, and if I showed them my fic they'd say they liked it.

They're not going to give the Ok to your fic, because the fic isn't FOR them, and it shouldn't be. It's for the other weird fans who can't stop thinking about the block men characters, it's not for the actors. The actors have their own lives, leave them alone.

To be clear, I am not saying that we should stop writing family dynamic to respect Technoblade's feelings. Among other things, I don't think he's checking his character tag on Ao3 right now. But like, I've talked before about the way that boundaries culture ends up working in practice, and how constantly bringing problems up to streamers just ends up showing them all the things that are the most weird to the streamer. You only have to look at what most of Benchtrio has done in terms of boundaries, which has been transitioning from very explict boundaries with details on everything to just saying "just use your manners," stopping answering questions, and telling people to actually think about what they're showing the streamer instead of expecting someone to weigh in on it for them.

But even when it comes to the boundaries that we do have, that we know about, the way people enforce them seems to be less about actually respecting what the creators like, and more about making sure we're morally pure and never have to see something that we personally don't like, and we don't happen to have any of that nasty boys kissing content in our work, because we all know that's terrible. (And as someone who's seen crackdowns on LGBTQIA content several times, that certainly has unfortunate overtones.)

As long as it's all kept away from the creators, I really think that fluffy cuddly family dynamic and kissing fic and hardcore whump all falls into the category of "not for the creators, they might find that one weird, but you do you". Like keep it away from the streamers, use your brain, but like, it's all a bit weird and for fun. Let it be weird and for fun in a secluded part of the internet, keep it away from the streamers, tag your shit for people who don't want to see it, and go to town.

So just like, I really think that "creator boundaries" should be more about using your brain as to what you show the streamer, and less about harassing someone off the internet cause they drew kissing art.

[igbylicious]

hwa: Dommy mommy Hwa? sign me the fuck uP. These words you speak remind me of twitter user hwcberry's art :')

hellooooooo all their art is gorgeous????? (*♡∀♡) i just spent soooo much time scrolling through their account asdkjadsjkdas god i really don’t want to get a twitter account but on days like these i am TESTED (.❛ ω ❛ .)

(I can't stop imagining mommy!hwa taking care of the members when they're sad and miss home, are stressed from too much work and too little sleep etc ;_; Just, woo/san/yeosang/[name] crying into his tiddies as he pets and reassures them, coos over them, and then probably rails them to make it all better.)

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ♡

i Need seonghwa's cock and strap Right Now actually byeeee

that popped into my head literally while typing out the post and i’ve been HAUNTED by the visual ever since T_T

this fucking SENT me, there's something so mean (affectionate) about treating a sub's body like they're something to be toyed with and made to do things just for the dom's amusement. smth smth light objectification,

yes yes YES!!! >:3 ngl objectification is highkey one of my favourite kinks askjdskajads she’s just SUCH a versatile queen and plays so nicely together w/ so many other kinks! and she doesn’t even need much for a big impact, like even just a lil sprinkling through your degradation or praise will already spice things up deliciously (っ˘ڡ˘ς)

strongly agree that he'd have a very hard time hiding how good he feels >u> you know that sorrowful looking crease he gets in between his eyebrows when he sings smth particularly high? yeah.

THE EXACT MENTAL IMAGE I HAD IN MY HEAD HOW DID YOU KNOOOOOOWWWWW (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)

hongjoong: YEa he very much has the vibe of someone who will be a bit of a meanie, but will immediately drop the act and make sure you're okay if you he gets even the slightest sense that you aren't enjoying it. he's actually so so polite and, more importantly, genuinely caring, and he'd do his absolute best to only do things both of you actually enjoy ; ;

nooooo for real! ;; i can picture Hongjoong as a sadist dom i cannot picture him as even a slightly careless or self-centered one ;;

every single thing you said about sub joong, [chef's kiss emoji]. i don't think i've actually seen any sassy brat hongjoong fics, but now i wanna >U>

i don’t think i have either! the NEED for it tho oof, i just need this man to sass and roll his eyes at me (or Seonghwa uwu) and get wrecked for it PLEASE 🥺

NO i remember this too. the menace.

oKAY so that was NOT a feverdream i hallucinated up abt Yunho good good good good good (i’m not good)

and yet i can't help but feel like he's pretty vanilla. it always seems just a bit off to me when he's written as a hard, mean dom (no hate to those that live their truth though 💯💯💯).

lol not to go off on a ramble and get too deep abt horny kpop fantasies but honestly the differences are always really fun to see, to me at least! like, atinys are all looking at the same ppl and the same videos and yet we can still end up in such DIFFERENT places. obv part of it is projection of our own preferences, but also that we all take away and focus on very different aspects of these men. it just says smth abt the inherent subjectivity of human perception and idk i just find that stuff interesting (ᵔ◡ᵔ)

(just as long as everyone does have that same live-and-let-live attitude abt it lol)

(also; HUGE fan of the soft vanilla Yunho agenda! it’s just so sweet to think abt and suits him really well ;; ♡ )

his eyes just look soft and light in a way i can't imagine ever changing, even though i've literally seen them change when he's on stage lol. but like, in his own personal life? im not convinced. ig i'll have to keep reading hard dom yunho things for research purposes :3c

LOL the things we do in the name of research ♡(>ᴗ•)

i think it’s in some very small moments for me! like; the wanteez episode in which they play the zombie game (w/ Yeosang as the judge who gets eaten, not the one in the high school) is one of my go-to watches if i need a quick pick-me-up, and there is this tiny moment where Yunho lowkey warns Mingi abt goofing off that is seared into my brain @_@ and since i rewatch that episode pretty often, that moment has prob coloured my view of Yunho more than it really ought to (but that’s what i mean abt perception being so subjective!)

but tbh also just the intense contrast w/ his usual softness is a huge appeal for me @_@ and i can’t explain why Yunho scratches that particular itch while for someone like say, Yeosang, i am not into the contrast-factor at all! i just don’t see it! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ the horny brain does not always make sense lol

ANYWAY that’s enough of my hard dom Yunho agenda lol i shall free you from my ramblings xD

see now that you say this, i can very much imagine him enjoying things he doesn't personally care for, only because his partner is visibly/audibly affected >:3

saaaame he strikes me as SUCH a ‘gets off on his partners’ pleasure’ guy :’3

ACK smol yunho ;A; he deserves to feel so so small and cute always!!! i think he would be SUCH a good boy, just as you said =u= all big pleading emoji eyes and whimpers. he deserves the world ;A;

he is so sweet and kind and has such beautiful big brown eyes and i am a simple soul; i just wish to see those eyes tear up a lil from how good he feels 〒▽〒

ok Mood,

asdjkdsj yeah i saw that abt Yeosang in your post and i was like ‘yeeeeep i feel ya’ lol. i have enjoyed a few fic w/ him as a hard dom, but it’s like… idk how to explain. those tapped into smth where i could enjoy the mental image of him cast into that role, without any strong sense of ‘i could actually imagine him being like this’. (i feel a similar way abt AU’s that deliberately make major changes to the guys’ personalities! it’s fun, just in a different way than versions of them that stick closer to what they seem like irl!)

[edit: OH you literally said this right after lmaooo]

lol same-braining! (´ ω `♡)

...who said that,

a choir of angels straight from heaven singing their beautiful truth… ;; [standing ovation]

you already know i live for every single sub!san word that comes out of your mouth (and atp dom!san words too)

[picture me making the exact same face and gestures as Wooyoung in the gif you shared in your reblog (♡μ_μ) ]

no fr thats SO fucking cute and i can totally see it especially with less experienced mingi :'))

inexperienced Mingi would be so incredibly precious!!! („ಡωಡ„)

i just think he's always in the mood to sub. and im right :3

me five minutes ago: we all see and interpret these men in such different ways and that only makes the fandom all the more interesting & fun :)

me now: this is 100% correct Wooyoung told me so himself in a dream 😤

not a day goes by where i don't think about this wooyoung. he was so happy he couldnt help but be silly about it T_T <3

LOOK AT HIM FAAAAACEEEEEEEEEE ;; god he’s just SO precious i can’t w/ the lil hand gesture 〒▽〒 ♡

OH WORM??

I AM SO EXCITED ABT THE NEXT WHIWAY CHAPTER YOU HAVE NO IDEA HE’S GONNA BE SUCH A MENACE UWU ♡

im losing commenting-steam but ACH K sub jongho being well behaved.....what a dreamy little guy i love him and ilu too MWAH <3

lol i love how you wrapped that up hahahah (ღ˘⌣˘ღ) energy low, Isak OUT!

(but for real i’m glad you tap out if the energy isn’t there! i love your commentary so much but i love you and you taking care of yourself even MORE hehe (´ ε ` )♡ )

SUB / DOM ATEEZ HARD THOUGHTS

@wooyoungisbaby Isak asked abt dom / sub thoughts for the guys, and my rambling got out of hand. as it always does lol. self-control? we don’t know her

(ik you suggested to do this for the whiway au but! then i wouldn’t be able to talk abt sub Yunho :( & i can’t not talk abt sub Yunho :((( so these are just general thoughts abt the guys hehe~ ฅV●ᴥ●Vฅ)

sooooooo i am a huge switch-teez enthusiast; and this is essentially a bullet-point dissertation w/ a selection of d/s thoughts for each of the guys that make me go particularly 👀 they’re not meant to be speculation abt the guys’ preferences, just things that are very easy for me to imagine & that i think would be very very hot of them (｡◝‿◜｡)

warnings: dom / sub themes obv. also mentions of; penetrative sex, overstimulation, oral, ass eating, mommy kink, lingerie (on Hwa), riding crop, strap-on, DP in unspecified holes, dacryphilia, shibari / bondage, premature ejaculation, hair-pulling, drooling, sadism, corruption kink, brat taming, sugar daddy vibes, jewelry on reader, hand kink, implied choking, fingering (again unspecified holes), edging, puppy play, role play (including cnc for Yunho but no in-depth details), cockwarming, marking / bruises, blindfolds, pain kink, praise kink, dry humping, degradation kink, orgasm denial, dirty talk, biting, hair pulling, face sitting

a/n: gender neutral reader. genitalia are mentioned once w/ options. implied double anal penetration in absence of a puss, implied pegging in absence of a cock. there is a brief mention that reader could wear heels if they wanted for a scenario.

also my Yunho bias shows hard x_x i tried to keep the lengths under control but i just let myself go for his and i shall not apologise for it asdskjdasjk

⩥ SEONGHWA

Dom:

whether he is soft & gentle or hard & mean, Seonghwa is always elegant

even with sweat dripping off his nose from the exertion of fucking into you, even with his lower face covered in slick from eating pussy or cum dribbling down his chin from sucking dick, he is the most graceful dom to ever walk this earth

his long tongue is a blessing but his technique and dedication are divinity

you WILL get overstimulated

yes i have the mommy Seonghwa brainrot. yes i like imagining him in lingerie and a corset and make-up and heels while he’s in utter and complete control

to finish the look; riding crop??? riding crop.

also idk why but the thought of Hwa with a strap-on makes me so fucking dizzy. this man fucking you w/ two cocks at once

his strap would be so sleek and elegant too just like him

matches his favourite lingerie probably; Hwa is dedicated to the aesthetics

speaking of aesthetics; shibari (that’s it that’s the tweet)

saccharine sweet if you earn it

Sub:

fucking pathetic sloppy mess as a sub

listen i just really love the hc that Seonghwa is super sensitive and might cum prematurely asdskjasdjkdaskj

will prob cum from just being manhandled into giving head if he can get even just a lil friction going somewhere 👀 as a sub he likes to get sloppy, loves having his hair pulled

(ass, cock or pussy, this man gets drunk on it)

like if you want to do a long scene together; it’s so easy to just get a quick orgasm out of him and then have a real fucking hyper-sensitive Seonghwa at your disposal for the remainder of the night uwu

tie him up for maximum effect

cries so easily 🥺

can’t hide a thing, every ounce of pleasure shows on his face like an open book

hiccups and sobs and bite-swollen lips bc he keeps gnawing at his bottom lip, so so easily overwhelmed

…again; lingerie. put him in thigh-highs and knead at the soft flesh and cover those thighs all over w/ bites and hickeys

⩥ HONGJOONG

Dom:

listen…………we all know that grin………………………………………

what kind of world do we live in if our captain is not at least a tiny bit of a sadist??

lives to hear you beg

degradation as praise? praise as degradation? the line between being praised and being demeaned is soooo fucking razor-thin w/ this man

100% on purpose he likes it when you can’t tell for sure

(tho he is super cognisant of your state of mind. if he sees the doubt is genuinely getting to you, you’re getting a dose of pure unmistakable praise to settle you down)

he’ll happily tame a brat but he looooves ruining a sub who is already pliant for him. just to be mean.

i’m all aboard the Hongjoong corruption kink agenda

not even necessarily in a ‘you are inexperienced’ way (tho he can work w/ that 👀)

but watching you go from all immaculate and put-together to a depraved begging mess

yep

that does it for him

likes giving you jewelry to wear during sex. delicate body-chains and pretty necklaces that bounce when he fucks you. lowkey sugar daddy vibes; he loves seeing you decked out, but he esp loves seeing you decked out in things he bought you

Sub:

so while i love the image of Hongjoong offering himself up on a silver platter to you w/ a crooked grin; tbh i feel like he has potential to be a sub who outbrats even Wooyoung if he is In A Mood

the SASS on this man!!!

but once you break that snarky attitude? dear god the whines coming out of him ♨_♨

(listen do not be surprised if i use some variation of the word ‘whiny’ in every single sub section bc i know what i like and i am shameless abt it asdkjasdj)

noisy squirmy boi

on his elbows and knees, biting at the sheets as he gets fucked hard from behind, going slack-jawed and drooling on the bed as you wreck him into a stupor

fucked into complete physical exhaustion in the direct aftermath — but let him have a quick nap and his energy is like… he might still be tired but he’s also feeling so replenished? esp mentally

if he’s recently had a lot of on his mind then you might be treated to deep philosophical musings during the aftercare abt the world, the universe, life and everything

⩥ YUNHO

Dom:

i get pulled so hard into two directions w/ this man pls it’s not funny anymore i need HELP

he’s both the softest vanilla and the hardest freakiest dom out of the bunch to me, he's got my brain spinning

listen yall we all know how willingly Yunho indulges the fandom’s massive hard-on for his hands, imagine what he’ll do if he’s your partner ♨_♨

he gets off on how much you get off on having his hands around your neck

also unless i hallucinated that whole thing; Yunho has said he likes hearing atiny whine his name (sir?!?!?!?) so I'm gonna say he's a tease even when he's soft with you

takes you to the brink with those long fingers over and over again, pretends the edging is by accident

presses sweet kisses on your forehead or your tummy or your thighs as he laughs softly at your whining but points out he needs to get you prepped first for what he's packing; he just doesn't want to hurt you uwu

whether it is sincere sweetness or w/ an edge of mocking, depends entirely on his mood

(fake sweet Yunho my beloved ;;)

you're not fooled by his shenanigans but there's little you can do except gasp and squirm under him as his fingers press against your sweet spot again

still he’ll praise you every step of the way, and the payoff is more than worth it, he always makes sure of that

ok so the next thing isn’t really a dom / sub thing but it’s going somewhere that is, pls hear me out;

Yunho is totally up for some playful rp; he’ll do cheesy porn set-ups w/ you except he cannot keep a straight face through them to save his life lol. very lighthearted silly giggly sex that still makes your toes curl

he can keep a straight face through a very different type of role play; cnc

it’s not uncommon for Yunho to try and make you laugh during sex if a moment presents itself — but here he fully sinks into the role and there won’t be any light-heartedness until the aftercare,

and then you’ll be giggling twice as much as usual, once the timing is right ;;

the aftercare giggles are for Yunho’s benefit too; he needs to make and see you smile & laugh to feel like he’s fully come back into himself. to regain the right emotional equilibrium after taking on such an intense role

then he’s your sweet smiley golden retriever again ;;

might just fuck you again if you both have the energy, sweet and soft and slow this time ♡

Sub:

OKAY SO FIRST THINGS FIRST i gotta bring up that video in which Seonghwa and Wooyoung wear heels for a shoot and they joke around abt their heights — but then Yunho turns to the camera and whispers he’d like to be small; bc he’d be cute!!!

he’s always been pocket-sized in spirit to me so that had me by the throat asdkjasdkjd

so yeah i like to think he enjoys feeling small as a sub! not in a demeaning way, not even in a physical way necessarily!

(tho to be down on his knees in front of a dom who is either pretty tall or wearing heels (or both) does make him feel fantastically fuzzy)

no, it’s more like a cute lil pup who’s getting spoiled bc he’s a good boy uwu

(actual petplay optional~ ฅV●ᴥ●Vฅ)

love a sub Yunho who’s soft and well-behaved

and he wants to be! he wants to be a good boy and get pampered by his dom!! but sometimes his big golden retriever energy gets the better of him oop

(the video clip of a literal child scolding Yunho because “this hyung just won’t listen to me” lives in my head rent-free.)

and Yunho just can't always fight his brain when it sends him a fun impulse askdjdaskjsd

but it only takes gentle steering to get him back on track; like i said, he wants to be well-behaved for you 🥺

ok but to circle back to the puppy play

Yunho who loves being your good boy and is so playful and sweet — but he obediently lets you take your time to work him up and get him desperate

big brown eyes shimmering at you as you scratch him behind the ears while stroking his big hard cock

begging you to let him fuck you, to just let him inside you

so you sit in his lap and cockwarm him but you can tell it’s not enough, gets teary-eyed and he bites his lip to stop himself from whining bc you’re already giving him so much and he wants to be good

so you have mercy on him and let him fuck you from behind — if he makes you cum first

now there’s a demand Yunho can work with

usually he’s a hands-on guy but in puppy mode he prefers using his mouth and tongue. so he’s snugly between your thighs, getting himself messy. constant eye-contact as he peeks up at you, massaging your thighs and maybe even leaving a bite if he’s feeling cheeky — but he knows better than to tease too much

he is so far gone by the time he’s finally allowed to fuck you that he can’t do anything but mindlessly rut until he cums hard, gasping and shaking

still he makes sure not to collapse on top of you, instead slides off to the side and pulls you into his arms for a snuggle 🥺

(see Isak i wasn’t kidding abt whipping up a 1k essay just for Yunho alone! lol oop)

⩥ YEOSANG

Dom:

so tbh it’s much easier for me to picture Yeosang as a sub, but i do have this very specific idea for him that i can’t get out of my head of like

curiosity-driven dom Yeosang

maybe he was a lil shy at first, cautiously exploring your body and testing your reactions, but his eyes just lit up with intrigue when you let out a loud moan he didn't expect

that moment kick-starts it all, with him becoming bolder and bolder to seek out any other responses to his touch

do you moan when he kisses you here? do you gasp at a bite there? squirm when he pinches here?

and he never grows satisfied as he maps out your responses to pleasure — and pain, if you are so inclined

like

Yeosang stumbles into the whole pain play thing purely by accident but it’s barely even abt the sadism for him? if that makes sense?? it’s all about you and your arousal and the wide range of pleasure he can draw from you

he just wants to know

there’s always this sense of wonder abt him and his sparkling eyes when he’s playing w/ you

he probably gets even more experimental as time passes, actively on the look-out for new things he can try out

you’ll just be having a quiet evening and Yeosang comes up to you w/ that adorable small smile that on a surface level is full of innocence

but no he’s cutely excited to show you some obscure toy he found online and wants to know if you’re onboard ^^

Sub:

so vocal (っ˘ڡ˘ς)

shy but has a reeeaaaally hard time holding himself back if he’s overwhelmed

seriously so so noisy w/ lil whimpers and moans and quiet hitches of his breath. takes a bit for him to truly get loud, but dear god you’re still treated to a goddamn symphonic masterpiece of delectable noises

speaking of getting him loud 👀

if Yeosang trusts you but there’s some last remnant of shyness that he needs to shake off

he loves getting blindfolded

not seeing anything makes it easier for him to get lost in the pleasure; if nothing else exists in the world except you and your touch, he has nothing to be self-conscious of

that’s where he can get loud

can’t sit or lay still if you’re worshiping that gorgeous body or giving head; you’re gonna have to hold him down to stop his fidgety squirming uwu

gets flushed easily too

bruises like a peach and tho he gets shy abt marks in visible places, he lowkey loves it when you treat his chest like a blank canvas

pls gently brush his hair back & give his birth mark a lil peck during the aftercare okay? 🥺

⩥ SAN

Dom:

is it cheeky to say “just read whichever way”? it is?? okay alright lol

no but okay this man is dripping w/ care & devotion i want him SIMPING!!!

he LIVES for the praise and the validation, all it takes is a lil bit of encouragement and positive enforcement; and he may be the dom but you’ve still got him wrapped around your finger

while he can be the softest of soft service doms, it doesn’t take much to get San a lil rougher w/ you; he gets amped up easily and loves using his strength to your advantage

but you want him to be a mean dom? you can get him there but you’ll have to WORK for it by riling him the fuck up w/ some attitude bc this man’s natural instincts are to just please you all through the night (´︶｀)

San also loves to surprise-pin you against the wall. there’s just smth abt the spontaneity and passion of the moment that gets him going hard

depending on his mood he could either fuck you right then and there, or ravish you only to pull away w/ a smug, self-satisfied grin at how wrecked you are from just making out and a bit of dry-humping

(he’ll be back. San is too horned up to not finish the job)

Sub:

MAKE! HIM!! WHIMPER!!! AND CRY!!!!!!!

no but seriously a flushed Sannie pouting up at you when you deny him again 🥺

just the thought of him as like

a very very soft sub who yearns to get fucking wrecked by you 🥺

make him whine and writhe until he can’t handle it anymore and tears begin to streak down his cheeks

body worship melts this man into a fucking puddle and yes i am also talking abt tittie appreciation here

he always wants to be so strong and reliable for others but here in your care is where he can let all of that go 🥺 and just break down until you put him together again 🥺

SO MUCH CUDDLING IN THE AFTERCARE

YOU COULDN’T GET OUT OF HIS ARMS IF YOU TRIED

PLS DON’T TRY; JUST LOVINGLY STROKE HIS HAIR AND WHISPER SWEET PRAISES AT HIM 🥺🥺🥺

⩥ MINGI

Dom:

okay so i also get pulled so hard into two very different directions when it comes to dom Mingi askjasdjkdsa

one is Mingi the needy mess

like

maybe he doesn’t even mean to dom you but he’s so desperate for it he just can’t wait and ends up overwhelming you and it’s lowkey kinda clumsy but very sweet and oh god he just wants you so so bad 🥺

BUT THEN THERE IS

Mingi w/ his damn cocky on-stage energy?? and he’s intense and confident and knows what he wants??? (you, ruined)

like idk either way i have many feelings abt dom Mingi being super intense and he will overwhelm you either way, either by accident or by design

just strap in tight bc he wants to hear you ♨_♨

very vocal himself too. i like the thought of him spewing filth at you first but very quickly losing the capacity for any coherent dirty talk

still

you will hear him too OOF

high & whiny or low & raspy? y e s

Sub:

PRINCESS MINGIIIIIII!!!! (♡°▽°♡)

spoil him give him whatever the hell his heart desires!!!!!! again a NOISY MESS!!! tears up easily but doesn’t like to admit he’s crying uwu

gets even more discombobulated than as a dom hehe~

however

much like his buddy Yunho, i don't think Mingi often deliberately tries to misbehave

but he can get a bit sulky sometimes if he feels neglected

or, on the other side of the spectrum, just a touch too confident if he’s gotten too used to you giving him exactly what he wants and starts treating it as a given, or makes lil jokes abt it

it edges against that cockiness again but tbh it’s also lowkey endearing on him as a sub; his blind faith in your devotion to his pleasure

but you may choose to give him a lil reminder of who is actually in charge ♡ denying him a few times until he’s whining and babbling incoherently at you should do the trick perfectly ♡♡♡

don’t be too mean abt it tho :( remember he’s a princess :(((

⩥ WOOYOUNG

Dom:

OKAY SO YES ISAK I’M FULLY W/ YOU ON THE BRAT THING

like i said truly my favourite flavour of dom Wooyoung is a fucking tease of a menace who isn’t so much a dom as a brat who hasn’t been tamed yet

if he’s domming you and you’re in the mood to turn the tables? this man’s switch is flipped in an INSTANT you just gotta yank his hair hard and spew out some filthy degradation and he’s putty in your hands

brace yourself if he’s got you tied up tho lol. he is gonna enjoy himself :3

honestly he should change his home-address bc this man lives w/ his face between your thighs. gets so fucking drunk on you but never so much that he ever stops his teasing

a true edging enthusiast

hope you like bite-marks on your skin lol

and yet…

and yet i have a big soft spot for soft dom Woo too 🥺

who takes care of you after you’ve had a long, frustrating day 🥺

i feel like he could bigtime spoil and pamper his partners if he feels they really need it 🥺 he might still tease you a lil but it’s only to get you out of your head, maybe even just to make you laugh 🥺

Sub:

love a sub Wooyoung who balances a praise and a degradation kink like he’s walking a tightrope uwu

like we all talk abt his degradation kink bc of course we do!! with good reason!!! but have you seen his giggles and smiles when the other members compliment him???

sometimes he doesn’t even know himself what he’s in the mood for today — or so he tells himself. any bratty urges will make themselves known real damn obvious within mere seconds lol

instigator to the max

initiates phone sex w/ you and then hangs up on you just before it Gets Good just to rile you up (this may be a semi-spoiler 👀)

but he loves the combo special where he brats out to his heart’s content first, gets humiliated and/or punished for his trouble, but oh boy then his mood turns and he eats it UP to get praised for being such a good boy now (´꒳`∗)

will beg you to ride his face

(he’ll have you riding his face as a dom too, he just won’t be begging 👀)

⩥ JONGHO

Dom:

so i actually love love love gentle soft dom Jongho 🥺 but i decided to focus on the flip side for this post

hard dom Jongho who has a mean streak and looooooves to tease the fuck out of you. he doesn’t even need to verbally degrade you (tho he might); you hear his cocky chuckle and know exactly what a pathetic mess he thinks you are for him

but gets soft and SUPER ADORABLE in the aftercare??? just imagine this man fucking you within an inch of your life and then he cleans you up after

and gives you that sweet gummy smile while he’s literally wiping his cum off your body w/ a warm cloth???

giggles when you exhaustedly call him a menace or praise him?????

god i just perished

he loves playing it nonchalant too tho. having you between his legs sucking him off, looking down at your teary eyes and swollen lips bobbing up and down his fat cock like he dgaf

don’t let him fool you — watch for how tightly his hands are clenched into fists

Sub:

just wanna spoil & baby him :( def feel Jongho has to be ‘in the mood’ to sub, but then pls just be so soft with him and take care of him and make him feel good :(

he’d generally be a very soft, well-behaved sub;

he feels that if subbing is the role he’s taking on, then submissiveness is the role he’s taking on, youknow it’s almost matter-of-factly for him

THAT BEING SAID; Jongho is still Jongho and won’t keep his mouth shut if he feels you’re doing or saying smth that deserves to be teased abt or made fun of ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

your response needs to be a lil calculated;

he doesn’t really enjoy being outright punished or treated as a brat too much. prob feels it’s undignified lol

…unless he’s already super far gone 👀

so the secret here is to pretend you’re letting his teasing slide — until he’s at the fucking brink and then he’ll accept you laying on a lil bit of punishment as payback 👀

he’s not super loud in bed but you’ll get the prettiest lil breathy gasps and moans out of him asjksdjkdsajkdajs

I just realized that with Spidey and Doctor Strange meeting, we’ll finally have two heroes created by Steve Ditko on the big screen interacting with each other and Ditko is still alive to be curmudgeonly about the whole affair and my tiny nerd heart is just overwhelmed with joy!

Roommates & Renovations Pt. 7

Merman x F!Reader

"Well, that all happened," you sigh.

Yen exhales sharply and runs his hands through his hair, "How are you feeling?"

"Tired, stressed, the usual," you shrug. "But at least we won't have to worry about the Queen or the trial anymore."

He nods and downs a glass of water, "I'm still worried though, if Achara becomes the new Queen my mother and aunt will try to pry in the palace politics for their own personal gain."

"Are they really that bad?" you grimace.

Yen let's out a breathy laugh, "They disowned me when I divorced the Queen. My father tried to keep in contact afterwards but it ended when my mother discovered what he was up to. He used to ask me about my divorce and if-" He takes a deep breath and clears his throat.

"If you could help him divorce your mom?" you ask. Yen nods his head. "Divorce is a sore subject for your people huh?"

"It's not widely accepted and it's considered embarrassing to most. My father wanted something discreet and I was going to ask Varen but, my mother ended up cutting us off. I haven't spoken with him in years now," Yen's face scrunches, a quiet pain in his eyes.

He hasn't spoken much about his family but you knew his relationship with them was strained.

"Maybe once things have been settled we can find someway for you to see him, without your mom or aunt," you take his hand and bring it up to press a kiss to his palm.

Yen leans in closer and places his head on your shoulder, "That would be wonderful, if not almost impossible my light."

You turn your head and place another kiss on his forehead, "In the meantime I'll get in contact with my doctor and see what she can do about your condition. Hopefully it'll be an easy fix."

He grumbles and nuzzles against you, "I know you want to fix all this but I really don't want to talk about this anymore, I feel like it's all we've done today."

"Alright then," you agree. "Then what do you want to do today, aside from going clothes shopping?"

Yen sits up and looks at you confused.

"You ruined most of your clothes and I'm not doing laundry every other day. Also, I've been itching to see you in something other than jeans and a plain t-shirt," you pinch his arm and he rolls his eyes.

"Fine, fine but at least let me take a nap first," he groans.

You laugh and smooch his cheek, "Ok, that's fair go get some good sleep my light and I'll clean up around here."

Yen glows a dim pink before hulling you up as he stands. His eyes are normal now and all those rough edges have smoothed out and you start to wonder if maybe, just maybe you can keep that lusty side of him under control by flustering him. It's just a thought, a theory, but one you'll look into when the time comes.

He plops onto the couch while still holding you. You curl in his arms and lean against his chest, "What happened to taking a nap."

"I want to hold you before I go into the tank," his hands give you a light squeeze as he moves you till you're straddling him. You raise a brow at this new position but you don't complain. His hands gently glide up your arms till he's cupping your face. Yen's thumbs rub your cheeks, a tiny bit of his magic seeps out from his palms causing you to lean into his touch.

"Mmm what's this about?" you ask as you feel the slightest pull on your mind.

"I've only ever felt your emotions when you've been stressed or upset. I want to feel other things with you," he dips down and presses his forehead against yours.

You bring your arms up and wrap them around his neck, stretching your hands against his back, "And what am I feeling right now."

Yen nuzzles your cheek and squeezes your hips causing the both of you to jump a little. He laughs and holds you closer to him, "You feel happy, a bit tired and stressed, but still happy... Do I by chance make you happy?"

His voice wavered a little with that question. You purse your lips when you look him in the eye or at least tried to. He looks away from you, his dim pink turning an even dimmer and duller dark blue.

"Why do you do this to yourself my light?" you kiss his cheek, the spot where you pecked turning pink. "Why do you assume the worst before I can even give you an answer?"

Yen's mouth hangs open as he takes a deep breath, another tug at your mind comes and he screws his eyes shut.

"My li-"

He pulls you into a tight hug and you can feel his body shake and shiver.

"I've... I've never felt anything like this from anyone," his voice cracks and his body stiffens. "What is this?"

What is it indeed that he's feeling from you. You care for him a lot, but that word doesn't feel enough. You want him to like himself more, to have more confidence in himself since he's really good at his job and picks things up real quick. You've never felt this way about anyone before, not even with Varen who broke your heart those years ago.

A word lingers in the back of your mind that you're too afraid to confront even if it might be the right name for this feeling. Yen must have read your emotions because his fingers dig into you as if to anchor you to him.

"What is this?" he asks again, though his voice is hoarse and he coughs.

Water, he needs to get into his tank now. You try and pry yourself from him but his hold on you is firm.

"Yen, you're drying up! You need to hydrate now!" you squirm in protest but he doesn't let up. "Please! Just go and we'll talk about this later ok? I just need some time, please."

You feel a sting at the corner of your eyes and before you can bat the impending tears away Yen kisses you. It's a soft and gentle kiss that makes you feel as if you're floating. He kisses you again, his lips slightly chapped. The breath between the kiss is like a whisper, drawing you closer so you can hear better.

"I love you," he speaks against your lips before kissing you again.

A stream of salty tears pave their way down your cheeks then Yen's. Slowly and carefully he picks you up and lays you onto the couch as he kneels down next to you. You can feel how dry he is, his skin cracking and the red scratches on his face open and blood smears.

Yen's eyes are blood shot when he looks at you, his lips peeling as he tries to speak, "We'll rest today my light, we both need it after everything that's happened. Tomorrow, we'll go on a proper date."

He kisses your forehead and slowly gets up and limps to the hatch. You try to get up but something's holding you down. Magic.

It's not a heavy push or a pull to stay on the couch but a shield to keep you from getting up. You try calling out his name but the splash of water drowns your voice out. The shield drops then and you scramble to to the front door. You wheel around the house and to the door to the basement. It's cold and dark save for the dim light from Yen's tank.

There's a strange stale smell in the air, stagnant and still. Your skin crawls the closer you get to it. You've felt this before, a long time ago when your school was letting its students get a feel for forbidden and dangerous magic.

Why would there be something like that here, you think. Your feet take you to the furthest corner of the basement and away from Yen despite what your entire brain and body is telling you. The strange smell is strong here and everything in you is telling you to run. There's a lot of forbidden items that will do that to a person, all of them too deadly if you're constantly that close to them.

You suddenly feel a chill run up your spine and your heart nearly stops. Yen's been in here, his equipment is here and... You run out of the basement and slam the doors behind you. You make a mad dash back into the house and grab your phone, calling your friend who loaned Varen her phone.

"Lin is Varen still there?" you pant.

"A hello would be nice, but yeah your hunk of an ex is still here," Lin replies.

"I need to talk to him, I think someone smuggled in a restricted magic item," you whisper.

Lin goes quiet on the phone for a second, "That's a very big accusation considering what's going on. Are you sure?"

"Lin I felt it. Now please let me talk to Varen," you plea.

You hear Lin shift the phone and walk around before muttering something.

"I've barely been gone for what two hours and there's already trouble? What now?" Varen sighs.

"There's an RMI in my house," you repeat.

Varen groans, "Of fucking course there is. Did you touch it?"

"Do you think I'm stupid? Of course I didn't touch it! The damn thing is in my basement behind Yen's equipment," you exhale sharply and try to collect yourself.

"Right, who all has access to the basement aside from you two?" he asks.

"The two guys Yen had hired on, both human," but you can't think of how either would have gotten ahold of the item or known how to handle it.

"Correction, both seem human. We've been dealing with a lot of glamour related incidents recently and forging an identity has been a major issue. If the Queen invested in a glamour potion within the last few months I'll let you know. For now, only you and Yen are allowed in the basement. I'll send someone to remove the RMI tomorrow," his words have a terrible bite to them. You can almost see him festering in his own thoughts while pacing back and forth.

You know how strained things can get when the mortal and fae realm clash and this incident will have everyone on edge. The borders are temporarily shut down for the trial and investigation, gods only knows what would happen if word got out that a glamoured fae snuck passed all that and caused trouble here.

"Alright, and I'll text Lin's number if I find anything else. How long are you staying there?" you ask.

"Till next week or until I'm called back. I'll update you if I find anything out about the glamour and whenever said someone will come over to remove the object. I suggest keeping Yen away from the basement in the meantime if you can," Varen suggests.

"I would if he didn't practically live in it... oh gods do you think that thing has been the reason he's been-"

"Don't jump to conclusions but you might be onto something. Have him stay in the lake for now, he told me it's breathable enough. Neither of you should chance this, I'm surprised he hasn't felt it at all... That is unless it was attuned to him," his voice drops to a whisper and he chokes on the last few words.

To have an item of magic attuned to you is one things, perfectly normal and it's great to keep things from getting stolen. To have a restricted magical item attuned to you is the same as having an illness locked onto you, slowly draining your energy or infecting your mind. There's no telling how long it's been down there and what it's been doing to him.

"I...I gotta go, I'll update you if anything happens," you hang up the phone before Varen can say anymore and run towards the hatch. You take a deep breath and jump in, knocking on the sides of the tank as you descend.

You dive down and forward, staying close to the pocket of air at the top. After a couple minutes of swimming you feel a tug on your legs and you're being pulled down into Yen's arms. One of his eyes is all black while the other looks completely normal. You point upwards so you can talk with him but he pulls you in closer and kisses you, his magic filling you up.

The spell quickly turns you and you push away from Yen once you're able to breathe, "Yen you have to get out of the tank now, there's a restricted magical item down here. It's pretty bad, come on." You tug on his arm to follow you but he remains still. You look back down at him and see that his eyes are screwed shut and he shakes his head furiously.

Something's wrong, really really wrong. You tug harder and he reels, clutching his head. You swim down to him and grab his shoulders and try to swim upwards. It's a slow ascend back up and you drop Yen a couple times but he's not struggling. By the time you're close to the hatch he swims past you and nearly flies out of the tank.

You hear him cough and toss around as he gets used to breathing air again. You debate climbing out of the tank with his spell still on you so you linger at the top and hold onto the edge. His violent thrashing slows and he flops onto his back, chest heaving.

"Yen you need to calm down, take deep slow breaths," you urge him.

He stutters something and groans as he curls into a ball. His face contorts with pain, his eyes black and puffy and claws grow longer and sharper, digging into the hardwood floor.

You curse whoever did this to him as you decide to pull yourself up out of the tank, you'll hold your breath if you have to. Luckily the spell wears off once you're out. You go to his side and haul him into your arms, turning his face just enough so you can get a better look.

The skin around his eyes look bruised and his lips are pale. What the hell is going on? When did that RMI get there and why is it so bad now, why now?

Suddenly you hear a knock at your door. You're not expecting anyone and you have the next few days off so no one should be bothering you. Your phone goes off and you debate grabbing it or staying by Yen, it's a tough choice but you end up going for your phone and answering it.

"Answer the door," Varen says then hangs up.

You quickly pad your way to the front door and swing it open. A tall elven woman in sunglasses with bunched up red hair stands at your door with a ridiculously large tie-dye rainbow purse all the while wearing a lab coat.

"Rori, you're-"

"Here, yes yes I know. Where is he?" she pushes past you and shoves her purse into your hands. You don't argue, that's one of the few things you learned early on about your doctor.

You close the door and chase after her, watching as she kneels down and curiously inspects Yen. She makes several humming sounds as she peels open his eyes and mouth, picks up his hand and checks his pulse... you think.

"Where's the RMI?" she looks around.

"It's in the basement where he's at most of the time," you answer, watching as she rises and pauses with too much dignity for someone wearing polka dot pants.

She demands that you lead her down to the basement, showing you a string of texts and papers clearing her to inspect it. You nod your head and as you lead the way you text to double check with Varen. It all checks out.

Rori makes a face of absolute disgust and tears her glasses off the second she gets a whiff of that stale stagnant magic. Her yellow eyes stare right in its direction and her nose scrunches, "Vile nasty little thing."

She crosses her arms before making several frustrated hand gestures, "I cannot fucking believe this got past border security! Are you fucking serious?!"

That's what you've been thinking. How and why and who?

"Is there anything you can do for Yen?" you ask her, slowly approaching her side.

Your doctor twirls around and places her hands on her hips, "I've never had a merfolk as a patient but I know the further away he is from this thing the better. Back up we go!"

You and Rori make a plan to take Yen not to the lake but to a nearby freshwater pond big enough for him to stretch and sleep in. It's clean and managed by the next city over who Varen apparently pulled some strings to get them to loan it to Yen.

It's a hour drive there so you and Rori put Yen in the backseat where she'll splash some water on him ever so often. Little by little and the further you are away from home the better he looks. You glance back every stoplight and every stop sign to check.

By the time you get to the pond Yen has slowly started to wake up, his eyes blood shot and dry. A team of doctors and local law enforcement help Yen into the pond and to your doctor's clear dismay, check his vitals.

"If they just asked me what had happened I'd tell them he was under the influence of an RMI but nooooooooo, let them fiddle away," she leans against your car and throws her hands up in the air.

You're thankful for her fitful attitude and its distractions or else you'd be tossing yourself at Yen and asking everyone around him to be careful and gentle with him and that he's been through a lot. They probably know, Varen would have hinted at the importance of the city loaning us the pond.

Yen groans and coughs loudly then, pulling you away from Rori's loud pouting. Two orc officers are slowly settling him into the pond with the utmost care but the one holding Yen by his shoulders nearly drops him when Yen rolls over to cough. You run to his side or at least try to but you're stopped by a naga in a lab coat.

You look to Yen and you see him muttering something to the officers holding and they holler at the naga to let you through. Yen's tail hits the water first as he's lowered in and you hear a sigh of relief. Once he's up to his chest he waves to officers off and thanks them for their help.

"How do you feel?" you ask him as you plop down next to him, not caring that your clothes have gotten soaked.

"Better...what happened to me?" he swallows hard and coughs.

"Someone snuck a RMI into the basement, behind all your equipment. Varen's got an idea who it might be and how they got one but-"

"The Queen? Not hard to believe, the palace owned several that I tried to have destroyed but I was outnumbered. Some voted on using them for 'defense'... Let me guess she paid someone to hide it and gave them a glamour," he looks at you with tired eyes, his breathing finally evening out.

"That's... that's been the only theory thus so far but yeah. Do you know of any RMIs that were in the palace that could force your bedroom eye behavior but ten times more intense?" you ask him.

He looks confused for a moment then his eyes widen with horrific realization. His face twists and he looks like he's about to be sick.

"Yen, my light...?" you press and hand to his shoulder and it glows a light pink. His eyes stare right at your hand that's on him and his eyes start to water. He pulls you into his arms and you squeak at the sudden and very public display of affection.

"Thank the gods," you hear him mutter, "it was all real."

Before you can ask him what he means you feel a light tap to your shoulder and look up to see Rori wearing a shit eating grin.

"Hate to interrupt but Varen sent someone to pick up the RMI ahead of schedule. They'll either need the keys to the house or for you to show them where it is," she gestures with her head that you should probably go.

You look back to Yen who just smiles and shrugs, "I'll be safe here my light. Officer Bran said they'd have security posted around here and only people I'm close with or have personal permits from Varen can get anywhere near me."

That makes you feel a tiny bit better but you'd rather stay with him. You'll go home of course, but you'd rather be here. Yen lets out a breathy laugh and kisses your cheek. You can feel him magic pour into you, but unlike before where it flowed like a calm stream this flowed in like a rapid river.

"Stay safe, if anyone or anything tried to hurt you you'll be teleported here. I can't be there with you but my magic can," he nuzzles your cheek and places a tingling kiss to your forehead. "And that one's to dry you off once you get out of the water."

"My hero," you giggle and kiss him back. You tried to be quick about it but he held you long enough for Rori to clear her throat and poke at his head.

"I'll keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't do anything stupid. You go take care of things on the homefront smalls," Rori grins.

You groan, "Oh for fucks sake, can you stop calling me that."

Rori and Yen giggle and you eye your boyfriend who you know is going to stash that nickname in his arsenal.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The drive back home was stressful, you kept shifting in the seat and tapping the steering wheel. When you pull up to the driveway there are two armed cars and at least twenty people on standby. A tall fae you sort of recognize greets you and hands over the paperwork and his id that you check with Varen. You do this nineteen more times, but you'd rather be safe than sorry.

A group of three, a fae, a minotaur, and a naga, are charged with removing the RMI. You lead them to the basement that's being heavily guarded by ten people. You're not to go in for safety reasons until they send someone in to purify the house of the stagnant and stale smelling magic.

The minotaur holds a heavy duty metal box that they plan to put the item in. The naga is armed to the teeth, wearing a dual realm approved protection vest, good against magic and mundane attacks.

The fae heading the group was in fact an old colleague of Varen's though he transferred to realm border safety and became a specialist in RMIs.

You wince when everyone reels back as the tainted magic rolls over them. The naga grimaces and readies himself as he follows behind the others. Everyone else goes back to position but you can tell they're nervous.

The air is thick and you can hardly breathe as you wait for them to come back out. You back yourself up against the treeline to try and relax only to have a guard run up to you.

"Sorry I can't let you out of my sight," the orc sighs.

"Figures, someone placed something like that in my house that could have put a lot of people in danger," you shrug.

"Thank you for understanding," he nods.

You stand against a tree while your orc guard stands next to you as stiff as a board. You feel a strange sensation, dizzy and lulling. You shake your head, tired, just tired. You try and snap out of it but it's got a firm hold on you whatever it is. You don't like this...

"Psst, hey hey you," you wave at the orc and beckon him closer. He raises a brow but moves in closer nonetheless. You whisper something to him and he nods his head. You both feign a laugh and he goes back to his post waving off your 'joke'.

The magic wraps around you even more then, you become dizzy and wobbly, your eyes heavy. You fight to keep them open to watch the trio exit the basement but you finally give in and then hands wrap around your throat.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You and your attacker fall into the pond with a heavy splash, they thrash and try to grab for you but you're faster and get to the shore in record time. Rori hollers for an officer to grab the perp but Yen tosses him out and they land with a hard thud.

They curse and try to scramble to their feet only for them to get dragged up by an orc. The officer forces him to straighten up and every terrible suspicion Varen had came true. It was one of the workers Yen requested to be hired on. The young man snears, his face distorting and inhuman features start peeping out.

You look to Yen, his face awash in shock and rage. His eyes start to turn black and Rori begs him to calm down. He's not listening, the water around him spikes and his magic starts to whip against the wind. He's pissed, so are you. You turn to the man and he gives you a toothy grin before spitting on you.

Yen's magic lunges out but your fist makes contact with the man's face first. The orc holding him stammers and Rori barks in laughter while Yen's magic just drops. The man spits out a tooth and growls at you so you kick him.

Another orc officer carefully and very nicely asks you to leave him alive enough for interrogation. You secede with a grumble, giving the man... the bogg... a death glare as you stomp off and back into the water.

"He really had the balls to try and scope shit out while they were removing the RMI, fucking stupid!" you seeth.

Yen swims up to you immediately and wraps his arms around you. You're still not used to public displays of affection and your doctor knows this.

"Oh my dear smalls, all grown up and has a mate," she playfully wipes away a tear. You turn and glare up at her. "But on another note, we've confirmed a few things about Yen's condition. It's very similar to saltwater merfolk mating behavior but with the additional of your said bedroom eyes."

You look to Yen and he smiles at you, "Good news I guess?"

"It's manageable, so yes," Yen grins.

Rori and Yen explain that the RMI was used as a 'party favor' by the Lakes' palace to heighten sexual desires and primal instincts during its more hedonistic era. According to them they theorize that the Queen had that bogg plant the RMI in rather recently to have Yen go bonkers right before her trial. She just didn't think that you'd be able to identify magic.

With the item out of the way Yen's condition won't be an issue but it'll still need to be monitored since no one has any data on freshwater merfolk and human pairings. Rori then goes onto teasing the both of you relentlessly until she spotted a shirtless orc running past the pond's park.

"And that's your doctor?" Yen snickers.

"She's also an old family friend, her and Priscilla go way back," you shrug, overly used to her antics. "So how are you feeling?"

"Better, my head doesn't feel as muddled as it has been. I should have known something wasn't right," he grits.

"Like Rori said, there was no way you could have know it was there. The RMI was attuned to you and-"

"That's not what I meant... I should have been more careful, I should have known that she'd try to pull some fucking last minute trick just to fuck everything up and drag me into her trial," Yen seethes, his tail slapping the pond in frustration.

"You can't keep beating yourself up for this, it wasn't your fault," you take his hand and quickly place the briefest kiss on the back of it.

The gesture was not lost on Yen, he knows you're not too fond of PDA or having him call you all those little nicknames in public. His face relaxes and his shoulders settle back down, he's been on edge and tense since being at the pond.

"I never wanted you to get involved with any of my problems but you've been tackling them head on and you have no idea how much that means to me. We knew dating each other would have some issue but I have so much baggage, possible war against the realms kind of baggage," he pauses and runs a hand through his hair as if to gather his thoughts. "But I want to start putting that behind me, I can't keep using all that as an excuse for who I am."

Where the hell is all this coming from, you think. Did Rori and Yen have a long drawn out conversation about your relationship? You're happy that he wants to put all this crazy stuff with the Queen and the Lakes behind him but you're panicking a little because this feels like it's coming from nowhere.

"So yeah....," he sighs. "I just wanted to get that off my chest and uhh that I'd still like to take you on a date, a real date and not just to buy me clothes. We can do that first and then plan a date."

Your heart flutters, not because of the date but because he's put so much thought into it. That he thought of prioritizing the time you two spent together and it touched a part of you that you haven't felt in a really long time.

"That sounds nice. Once the house it cleared for us to go back let's plan on getting you new clothes asap. New, real clothes, not just t-shirts, jeans, and sweatpants," you poke at him and he rolls his eyes.

You both talk about what kind of clothes would look good on him and you learn he has quite the aversion to shorts and khakis. He does make it a point to note that he will in fact be buying t-shirts just because he likes how they feel and they're easy to take off.

At some point you have to get out of the pond even with Yen's dry spell on you just to stretch and walk about. You overhear from a couple of the officers stationed several feet away that they're worried this incident might cause problems between realms. A few of the doctors who stayed after most probably got chased off by Rori are worried about how scrawny Yen is and if that's normal. Oh if only they knew how much he really puts away.

You think about going to your car until you remember you were teleported here. That'll be a future me problem you decide as you head back towards the pond.

A buzz from your phone has you stopping to check it. A string of texts from 'Lin' lighting up the screen.

Lin: This is Varen. I'm going back to the fae realm after today. The High Court moved her trial to Friday and I have to get the RMI and that bogg there and processed. In order to keep things uncomplicated please just agree to whatever compensation will be sent to you. One check will be for your own personal distress from the events that have occurred and the other will be for any and all setbacks on the town's reconstructions and renovations. And as Lin suggested I'll be getting a throw away phone to use to update you on the trial.

You text him back a quick reply and let him know that the RMI was the cause for the escalation of his condition then shove your phone back into your pocket. When you get back to the pond you see Yen talking it up with one of the doctors who commented on his weight. They laugh and make a couple faces and you're just so happy that he can be joking around after all that's happened.

"Did I miss anything while I was gone?" you ask.

"Oh no, not really. Oh we'll be able to go home soon though, they just have to finish purifying it," Yen smiles.

The doctor dismisses himself and runs back to his group. Yen tells you that they were worried if he's not been eating due to stress or the effects of the RMI but he just has ridiculously high metabolism.

"Ah yeah so we might have to find a ride home since my car is well-"

Yen barks out laughing, "Ohh gods I didn't even think about that! Think we could talk one of the cops into giving us a ride back?"

Luckily one of them does agree to and it's one of the orcs who helped Yen in the pond. He's nice and very very talkative. The ride home is filled with back and forth banter between Yen and officer Kirill who are both big fans of the movie remakes starring all sorts of peoples from the fae realm. They end up exchanging numbers using your phone since Yen left his at home so they can talk and criticize the movies and shows together.

Officer Kirill helps you get Yen into the house and to the hatch. You offer him some coffee but he declines it saying he's got a buttload of work he's got to catch up on and reports to file.

After he leaves you stand in the middle of the house and take a long deep breath. The hard part of this nightmare is over, you think. There's a ton of evidence stacked up against the Queen and that bogg is in realm custody. Yen's condition is no longer an issue and you'll be handsomely compensated for the troubles the both of you had been put through.

So why does it feel like something is still amiss?

You hear the hatch slide open and Yen pulling himself up but not getting out. His complexion is already looking a million times better but the look on his face is troubling.

"Is everything alright?" you ask him.

His brows scrunch and he sighs, "Yes... no... I don't know, I feel like-"

"We're forgetting something?" you shrug.

"Sort of, I just have this feeling like this isn't over? Like we're just sitting on the edge waiting for good news or bad news to strike. I think it's because it's been one thing after another," Yen groans and tosses his head back. "Like when is the next bad thing going to happen and what will it be?"

That was it, that's the strange feeling that was starting to gnaw on you.

"We've gotten too used to bad shit happening all the time I think," you joke, sliding in next to him and slowly sitting down.

"I just feel like even after the trial, even after my sister gets the throne and my mother is happy sitting in the palace that there's something else that might happen... something else that would-"

You wrap your arms around him and hold him as tight as you can, "It's done Yen, at least with all that. Sure things might come up in the future whether it's with work or our personal lives but we'll manage. We got through this so anything else that comes our way will seem small compared to this," you kiss his cheek and lean against his shoulder.

His body shudders and tightens, "This nightmare is really over huh?"

"That particular nightmare that is. We still have to go clothes shopping," you poke at him.

Yen starts laughing an infectious laugh, his body a glow with a light green. He scoops you up in his arms and just holds you, giggling against your neck but you feel something else. Speckles of tears that he wants to hide, that he wants to move past.

"It's over, it's all over," he mutters.

You let him hold you till his tears run dry and he's relaxed in your arms. His eyes look tired and you can see days worth of exhaustion on his face. You kiss his forehead and you both agree to go clothes shopping tomorrow, after he's had a nice long rest. He slips back into his tank with a yawn and a lazy wave.

After a few minutes you go around the house flipping all the lights off and putting the a/c on a comfortable temperature. A nap sounds good you think, a well deserved and undisturbed nap. You grab your favorite throw blanket and toss yourself onto the couch. You fall fast asleep in no time with Yen's magic holding you like a gentle hug.

Everything with the Queen is over...

Now everything with you and Yen can finally begin...

pairing : dilf neighbor!soobin x (legal)!reader

warnings & other : slight SMUT, dont read if youre uncomfortable with age gaps, sexual tension, noninnocent (?) touching, there’s like one curse, happy valentines day

w/c : 1.7k

after hours of locking yourself in your bedroom you finally decide to come out and grab a snack from the kitchen. you vaguely remember the sound of the doorbell being rung and distinct chatter coming from the living room following but you frankly weren't interested in whoever had arrived.

by now though, the chatter had died down to simple conversation and the occasional obnoxious laugh from your mom specifically. you stretch, walking out of your bedroom and completely forgetting that you had a guest.

you barely even walk past the living room when you see a man sitting on the love seat with a simple black tee shirt and slacks on, his jacket draped over the couch's back. his legs are spread open, strawberry hair messy, and head leaning against his veiny hand, listening to your mom drone on about something your older sibling did in their youth.

"oh," you say out loud. suddenly all eyes are on you and you can't help but shrink at the mans lingering gaze on your body. you're suddenly self conscious about the fact that you're wearing booty shorts and a white shirt that was a bit more on the translucent side, that and the fact that you were wearing no bra.

"oh mr. choi, this is my daughter y/n!"

he doesn't answer right away, subtly dragging his eyes down your body as if undressing you while you stand awkwardly at the entrance of the living room. "hello y/n," he says simply, staring back into your eyes.

your body gets hot and you feel a familiar wetness start to accumulate just above your thighs. the way he said your name just felt so right. his voice seemed gravelly as if he'd been yelling all day and just now had a chance to rest his voice with quiet conversation.

you completely forget your snack already finding something even more satisfying right in front of you.

you sit on the accent chair across from him, eyeing him down just as he did you. he smirks, amused by how completely unsubtle your arousal is.

"mr. choi just moved to our neighborhood and i thought it would be a good idea to introduce ourselves as neighbors," your mom explains. you nod, smiling at him.

"choi soobin," he starts. "i worked at a company in another city but was promoted so i had to move here for the new position. the neighborhood is nice, the people too," he says looking at you. you give him a bright smile, "im glad you like it."

soobin leans back in the chair, eyeing you once more, specifically choosing to linger his gaze on your chest. "so soobin-" his deep chuckle cuts you off and you look at him expectantly.

"im sorry... it's just that since i work at a company im used to people calling me mr. choi or... sir," he says, narrowing his eyes at you. "wow you must be at a high position!" your mom excitedly gapes and you have to wonder what her real intentions were when inviting soobin over.

"im quite respected," he says simply, still looking at you as if he's waiting for something. you give him a coy smile, deciding to tease him a little, "well sir, that's an interesting take away."

he smirks, letting out what seems to be a satisfied sigh. he turns to your mom, "is it alright if i have a glass of wine or something? my throat is a little dry from barking out orders all day."

your mom obligates to his request, attracted to the idea that this man was a hardworking businessman. you knew your mom would go find the most aged wine for him because she liked to show out for guests. especially guests that looked as fine as soobin. you also knew it would take her a while to find said wine, keeping it locked away for special occasions.

"y/n keep our guest company," she told you. you happily accepted that offer. yeah, you’ll keep him company alright.

now that you were alone with soobin you wasted no time in playing into his apparent attraction towards you. you open your legs slightly to lean forward on your hands which were situated between them. you saw his eyes flit down to your breast which were squished together due to your actions.

"so sir," you say innocently as if you aren't giving him a little show. "do you have a wife or children?" he shifts in his seat a bit, widening his legs in the process. you swear you can see a slight bulge in his pants if you squint. oh, so he's big.

he laughs at your question, "i don't have a wife, im divorced and yes i do have a son." your eyes widen only slightly. frankly, the thought of him having a son doesn't bother you in the slightest. you decide to ask him how old his son is for conversation purposes.

he hums lowly, "he's 18....how old are you?" you're surprised your mom hadn't told him your age. she probably thought it wasn't information she deemed was necessary for him to know.

"im legal," you say with a smile. he smiles at that and you swear your pussy twitches. he's so attractive and he's barely done a thing! you stare at his crotch while his leg bounces and you can only shamelessly imagine yourself bouncing on his cock.

you wonder how big is. he looks tall as hell so that gives you some ideas. his legs look to take up almost half his body. god, what would it look like grabbing onto his thighs as he fucks himself into your mouth? you can imagine the tears running down your face and runny nose as you look up at him and he looks down at you with the exact same expression he holds right n-

"that's good to know," his voice cuts through your dirty thoughts. he doesn't even address how you were blatantly staring at his crotch because at this point he doesn't even care. he knows you want him but he'll wait for you to say it. even if you don’t say it today, he knows you’ll say it eventually.

you move your hands and squeeze your legs together. you can already feel yourself dripping at just the thought of this man across from you. he's so close yet so far and the sexual tension is killing you.

you get up from your spot, casually walking up to where he sits. he stares at you curiously wondering what you plan to do. you choose to sit right next to him on the couch. just close enough that if your mom walked through at any moment you could recoil and it wouldn't look suspicious at all.

you don't say a word and you place your hand lightly on his knee, slowly moving it up to his upper thigh. "what are you doing babygirl?"

babygirl? fuck. just the pet name coming from his mouth alone has your breath going shaky. you rub your thighs together in anticipation. "nothing sir," you smile.

his hand is suddenly placed atop of yours and he drags it just above his growing erection. "look at what you're doing baby," he moves his head close your ear.

"you came down here dressed like a little slut, i bet you wanted the attention right?" he asks. "as soon as you saw me you probably couldn't wait to have me fuck the shit out you."

the words he mumbles in your ear have you unconsciously palming his dick through his slacks. "sir.." you whimper. he hums, holding back a moan as you continue palming him at your own accord. his hand is now at your upper thighs slowly inching up.

he placed two of his cold fingers pressing onto your pussy through your shorts. "you're so wet that i can feel it through your shorts. did i do this?" he chuckles, now rubbing up and down slowly. you nod, looking up at him through your lashes. "yes it was all you, sir. all you."

he suddenly pulls away completely from you with a light smile. he also removes your hand from him and leans forward on his knees, his upper body effectively covering his boner. you're confused about his actions and kind of annoyed until you hear your mom call from the hallway, "mr. choi i hope you like this flavor, it's one of my finest!"

"im sure anything you have tastes delicious!" he answers, glancing at you. you shy away from his eyes as your mom walks into the kitchen. since the kitchen is too close to the living room to do anything he whispers to you, "shy now?" he laughs a little bit. "you're too cute y/n."

you wish he'd called you a cute petname right then but you'll take what you can get. he places his hand on your knee and you shiver, remembering his fingers on you just seconds ago.

he removes them once your mom walks into the living room with two glasses of wine, one for him and one for her. they talk for a little while more, and you occasionally chime in but really you're too distracted by soobin. the heat he's radiating is too much to handle plus you're still sitting close enough to see that he's still hard.

it gets late and so the night ends for you three. "my son is probably wondering where i am by now, i should go," he says standing up. your mom agrees and you escort him to the front door while she takes the glasses back to the kitchen.

soobin notices your disappointment at not having finished what you both started on the couch earlier but he leans down to whisper in your ear. his voice sends shivers through your whole body and his hot breath tickles your neck and ear. "don't look so dejected babygirl, this isn't the last time we'll see each other." he kisses your cheek as he ascends back up when your mom meets you both at the door.

"say hello to your son for me! oh and next time bring him over so he can meet y/n," your mom suggests just as he walks out the door. he turns around to look at you both and you can tell he isn't too fond of that idea but he still answers with a polite smile.

"maybe! well i had a nice time maam, i'll be seeing you two around," and with that, he leaves and you simply cannot wait for the next time you'll see mr. choi.

[ohnobjyx]

I've seen so many sol0 fans or just people that have watched cql and cares for the cast, talking about how they feel that bjyx is something one sided and unrequited. some comments about how xz (in the later fan meetings) is kinda just patiently indulging yb but clearly was not v happy about it. Sometimes I do think xz is more reserved and seems to try to "tame" yb to be more discreet about their, whatever it is, thing but i don't particularly think he is cold? What do you think?

I know it may sound odd but is there some analysis about Xiao feelings towards Yibo? I mean this guy is head over heels for him, no doubt about that but I don’t really feel the same from Xiao? I mean I could be wrong since I’m new there and didn’t read a lot of analysis so if you have some can you link them please? Thank you! And I don’t ask this in a « wrong » way like I genuinely feel like there’s something but I don’t see the same feelings towards each other. Again, I could be wrong! 

Hi, anons. These asks has been sitting for the longest time in my inbox, so I decided to tackle them today (still writing two days later, I’ve desisted on creating a more organized post and I’m just dumping my thoughts here this time).

(It’s also that I’m frustrated about this, because these are two of the most polite ones, but I’ve also received others less well worded ones, that basically imply that there’s nothing from gg).

For the anon asking for some analysis, I’ll leave a link here to a post that basically sums up my own thoughts.

Disclaimer: as always, don’t take bjyx seriously. Pure speculation here.

Long post.

Before I start, I want to say that I shouldn’t be the one to convince you to anything. It’s never my intention to impart the “universal truth” or to be patronising. If any of you really feels that there’s nothing from gg, no matter what I say, you won’t be convinced by my post alone. And it’s alright to agree to disagree. Just keep it in mind.

I feel that what anons describe it’s something that often happens to new bxg. Dd’s so obvious, so painfully obvious that in comparison, gg is much more “discreet” (well, we had to learn to read Lan Wangji’s expressions, didn’t we? The same happens with gg’s gestures). I don’t agree with the idea of dismissing someone’s love just because they aren’t as obvious and as telling as their partner at first glance (gg’s songs and drawings aren’t as straightforward, but they are there for those who care to listen and see).

From my pov, I think it’s very very probable that they are together. So, that works both ways for me. I don’t think dd’s love unrequited. They take care of each other in ways that speak of a high level of trust, intimacy and chemistry (yes, I initially wrote that post for these asks). I’ve talked about subtle ways to display your love, because when you love someone it’s difficult to hide it, and gg has a hard time trying to hide for the cameras.

(I’m still thinking of Happy Camp, when dd hurt his neck with the necklace... gg’s reaction wasn’t controlled in the slightest, and the combination of worry and anger would be a interesting combo if gg indeed wasn’t anything to dd or if he hadn’t gifted him the necklace).

Gg often has a hard time controlling his reactions when dd is involved. He’s much more natural, a lot closer to how he really is instead of his very polite and soft public persona. He get a glimpse of him in the bts (I suppose they never expected CQL to be so popular, and didn’t thought that the bts would be so watched a year afterwards), and comparing how he is in the bts with dd to how he usually is in other interviews and events with other people is a very interesting exercise.

It’s true that gg in the interviews seemed to try to hold back dd, to the point that they both lied sometimes in the interviews... the effect they caused was contrary to what they wanted. Definitely. Because they tended to forget what they had lied about, and the “plot” had holes everywhere. Like gg reacting surprised to the possibility of dd starting a fashion brand. Twice. In the same day. Or the eggplant/carrots thing. Or the “I didn’t know you slept with the lights on, but I’m aware of your sleeping pattern” thing. Please note that these three plot holes were caused by gg (in the second case, I’m refering to carrots ofc).

About what the first anon says of “how xz (in the later fan meetings) is kinda just patiently indulging yb but clearly was not v happy about it”. It’s one thing that by then they’d have noticed that their cp had attracted a whole lot more attention that they had ever expected it to and a whole another thing to “indulge” someone (as if only dd wanted it and gg had nothing to say about it) and “not be very happy about it”. Gg might have tried, but even he couldn’t completely erase all of the little moments directed at dd (and you have to take into account that gg was actually sick in the last fan meeting in Nanjing, that’s bound to affect his mood too).

(There’s no one else when they look at each other. No wonder Wen Ning achieved such a third wheel look when they were filming the boat scene, I suppose it’s taken from real life).

How gg looks at dd and only smirks when dd looks up... well, gg still makes his best effort at being discreet...

And dd in this moment... well, what can one do when a man like gg looks at you like that? (dd.exe has stopped working. Please restart).

Last but not least, I’d like to talk a little about W/ibo Night, the main source of many people’s doubts. I’ve seen many analysis, from “poor puppy dd following gg around” (that’s... bs) to some better analysis that deserve to be taken into account.

W/ibo Night is an event organized by a state controlled social media platform. It’s one of the most observed events of the years, with potential future employers and coworkers, apart from the government, so it’s not just them, but everyone is very serious and controlled in their actions.

They obviously had agreed beforehand on how to behave in this one. While dd is very serious, he doesn’t seem angry or sad that gg isn’t looking his way. However, they both can’t help but look in each other’s direction (gg’s more discreet, but pay attention and you’ll see him side glancing at dd at least three times on stage) and the way dd turns just so he can have a look at gg is... 🤦

They tried so hard that it ended up getting the effect they wanted to avoid: when everybody else was greeting each other (friendly hadshakes, patting their backs, etc.) these two just stood there, a little awkwardly. It became obvious to most people that they were acting as if they were strangers.

I think (speculation here) that while they had agreed to act as if they didn’t know each other, gg was... off that night. His eyes were very bright (as if teary, so not in a good way) and his smiles were tense, so I’d say in a bad mood or maybe he was feeling under the weather. I think dd was worried, so that’s why he kept glancing at him (I’ve read about the rumours of why gg was like that, but I tend to dismiss them if there’s no proof).

For someone as polite as gg, to walk so obviously in front of dd when they were getting on stage (c-culture here: the one who walks in front has more seniority/authority, so gg always lets the other people walk in front of him as a sign of politeness and respect), speaks of a familiarity that exceeds that of coworkers. Dd’s actions need no more words: waiting for gg and letting him walk in front comes naturally to him.

Choosing fans (though at first, dd just looks at gg choose his). I don’t know if you remember, but gg chose “I can do it” and dd chose “I have it difficult” (as a way of saying “I can’t”). I think it was entirely a coincidence, because dd was looking at his gg choosing his fan, the one he had wanted at first was taken by another person, so he chose this one as “I couldn’t take the fan I wanted” and “it’s difficult for me to choose”.

However, look at the happy and surprised smile from gg when he notices that his fan and dd’s make a pair (similar to “yes” and “no”, gg had filmed an ad for the event in which he linked this two exact phrases as opposites). A sad spoiler: this is the only time he truly, spontaneously smiles at the event (and notice how dd’s face inmediately mirrors gg’s and how he tries to rein it in a second later). 

I couldn’t find a video, but just before leaving the stage, dd looks at gg again and shakes his fan. Without a single word, gg understands that dd is asking from where to leave the stage, and makes the slightest movement with his fan to point the way. I assure you, this level of 默契 (mo qi) is difficult to find even in established long time relationships.

Once they are seated, gg leaves for a second and tells dd “I’m leaving” and dd answers “okay”. There’d be no need for this interaction unless they’re still friends/couple.

This one broke my heart a little: dd had been sitting on a plastic bottle the whole time. Usually gg clears his seat when dd comes (Nanjing fan meeting, Tencent awards night), probably because he has noticed that dd doesn’t care that he’s sitting on things. Dd left earlier the event because of his schedule, and once gg came back from getting his w/ibo king award, he sits on dd’s seat. And notices the water bottle under him. Even his poker face can’t hide the sad fondness “aiyo this boy...”

Some say he sat in the seat next to dd’s, but there’s a video I can’t seem to find (the despair is real) of gg sitting on the water bottle, so it’s indeed dd’s seat.

Also, you may try to think this from your own perspective: when and why would you sit in another person’s seat in an event as important as this one? If I try to answer this from my pov, I’d say that first I’d need to know that that person wouldn’t mind me sitting there and/or knowing that this person isn’t going to come back to the event. In both cases, it requires communication and trust between these two people. Gg had to know that dd was leaving first (and why would dd tell gg if not because they chat about their work schedules?) and that dd wouldn’t mind once the fancams made it to social media. This is what I think, at least.

Okay, so here ends my post. I just exposed some of my thoughts on why I think yizhan is NOT one sided or unrequited. But of course, you’re allowed to disagree with me, anons, since we are all in the speculation ground here. Nonetheless, note that this is a yizhan/bjyx blog, which implies (at least for me) that there are feelings from both sides, so I may not interact further with one-sided yizhan/bjyx asks.

(BTW, I found a very complete post of moments where yizhan isn’t one sided here, so I decided not to elaborate on those moments in this post).
