Act 3 spoilers
I just wanted to voice my opinions on the entirety of act 3, I will be making another post focusing on Jayce because I am disappointed with his story specifically.
Let's start with what I'm happy with!
The display of Mel's magic was amazing. All her scenes were so powerful.
CaitVi is canon! (which was predictable for obvious reasons but i'm still happy for them)
The music choice was perfect, as well as the quality of the episodes, as expected. No matter the storyline's flaws, the art style itself is undeniably gorgeous.
Maddie dies IMMEDIATELY after betraying Piltover, so I'm happy with that. Don't get me wrong, I think the season looked rushed, but the instant karma of that scene was enjoyable. It's well executed shock value.
The Caitlyn/Mel and Ambessa fight sequence was SICK. They really emphasized Ambessa's strength and battle IQ here, and while I dislike her, it was satisfying to watch.
The JayVik ending. Now, I am very conflicted with this, but I'll focus on the positive part. THIS MOMENT WAS SO TENDER!! It revealed how much Jayce truly loved and cared for Viktor, and that Viktor thought Jayce to be the only person who could ever make him acknowledge the importance of humanity. Jayce was his last and only hope, and Jayce proved Viktor right in every timeline.
Jayce defenders, we won. We got an entire episode dedicated to what Jayce and Ekko/Heimerdinger went through, and it proved that JAYCE WAS RIGHT AND HIM AND EKKO ARE OUR SAVIORS THANK YOU š
Jayce looked fine asf. That is a beautiful man and I'm expecting many more edits (pretty please).
Alright, now let's get to what I'm upset about.
Jayce's wasted potential. The way I see it, they just reduced him to a pawn in Viktor's character arc, considering that his life begins and ends with Viktor. It's sweet, yes, and can be counted as a win for JayVik shippers, but I really wanted more for Jayce. And yes, I will most definitely come back to this on my Jayce-centric post.
The lack of reaction to Jinx's and Jayce's "death". I'm honestly not sure if either of them are dead (I am also somewhat in denial). Mel lost her lover, of whom brought out a softer side of herself that she didn't even know existed, and there's no reaction? Not even a scene of her finding out? The same goes for Caitlyn, since she literally saw Jayce as an older brother. Then there's Vi, who's seen completely fine with Caitlyn, and Ekko, who's having the only appropriate reaction, but even so, it's too calm. We'd have to assume that there's been another timeskip, but it couldn't have been long since the war. ALSO XIMENA, Jayce's MOTHER, she's seen putting a paper of Jayce's name to burn and honor him after his supposed death, but her expression is blank. Just simple resignation. I don't know, the lack of reaction had me questioning why I was sad.
No proper reunion scenes besides Ekko/Jinx and Mel/Jayce?????I actually liked Ekko and Jinx's reunion, but Mel and Jayce? Not even close to what I expected or wanted.
This season was rushed; that's something everyone can agree on. I think it was very focused on action rather than the complexity of these people's relationships and minds, while the first season had a balance between both. There just wasn't enough time for that balance with all the information they had to give us.
Honestly, and this is gonna sound horrible but hear me out, I would've preferred it if they had episode 6 be the last episode instead, and used the act 2 to explore Caitlyn's dictator arc and truly emphasize how long Jayce, Ekko, and Heimerdinger had been gone. I know how this sounds, but I really wanted to see more of Caitlyn and her mindset during the whole fascism plot rather than have her throw it all away three episodes later. It would've helped others understand her more, while also acknowledging how blinded she had become with anger and sadness. Also, this would've given more time for people to grow an attachment to Isha and see how she reminds Jinx of Powder!!! Just imagine it, the season closing with Jayce "killing" Viktor, no sign of Ekko or Heimerdinger, and Isha dying would have been even MORE devastating; the ultimate cliffhanger. There's no denying people would've been angry and shocked, but it would've made us want more, just like the first season did. I would be 100% willing to wait 3 or more years for the next season than have such an underwhelming ending.
Okay, I think that's it. Might add more to this post later if I come up with any other critiques, be prepared for the Jayce post because I NEED to talk about him.

The plot is weak af, but gimme a few more stories and I'll find my groove. Promise! Unbeta'd, be gentle with me ā”
It was supposed to be a relatively chill Saturday night, so you were excited. You just got off work, and had arrived at Jisung's. He swung the door open smiling and pulled you inside, into an immediate hug. Everyone said their greetings, and then Jisung went immediately to whining.
"Finally, what kept you so late?"
You took your shoes, mask, sunglasses, and hat off, letting your curls fall down your back. Then you unzipped your sweatshirt, shrugging it off your shoulders and exposing your fitted white tee. You gave your jacket and bag to Ji so he could put them away. You always arrived in 'disguise', in baggy clothing so that no one suspected anything. Though you thought it was ridiculous. It doesn't matter how baggy the sweat pants or hoodie is, there's no hiding the curve of your ass.
You were a content editor at JYPE, and had become really good friends with Han Jisung. Friendships between idols and staff certainly aren't forbidden, in fact they're encouraged to an extent... as long as no lines are crossed. But it's pretty much an ignored rule. Anyways, you were a small 'behind-the-scenes' employee, not a manager or assistant or makeup artist. Not anyone directly involved with any idols. No one off the street knew who you were. Still, over the last almost year or so, you and him became besties. You frequently shared meals together at work, had sleepovers, you even went camping. You were basically glued to each other. It could easily be taken the wrong way by the media and fans. Hell, it gets taken the wrong way by co-workers, other idols, and even his group members. Although they've mostly accepted that's not the case. It's a given with the way you two act though.
Your relationship is definitely platonic, confirming pretty early on that neither of you felt anything more than friendly love for each other. But you both love teasing the other suggestively. You suppose that's partly why you two got so close so quickly. Your personalities are so similar, it's like you share the same singular brain cell sometimes.
"Editing, per usual." You finally reply with a sigh, "We had to cut A LOT out of nexz's new video. They're so high energy, they slip up a lot, especially with the swearing, but nothing we can't handle."
"Gotta love kids." Chan snorts while sipping a beer.
You smile awkwardly in response and look around the room. Everyone is here, all with their preferred beverages, and chatting away or scrolling.
Ji comes back with a drink for you, he knows you're partial to tequila and always keeps it on deck. Normally, you spend every weekend you can together, which sometimes is not as often as either of you would like. Sometimes you'd both head back to your place, and just have all nighters, binge watching anime and gorging yourselves on junk food. More recently, like tonight, you get invited over to hang with him and the rest of the boys.
It usually results in a few drinks and a movie, or talk about work. Sometimes you just play music and talk and vibe, or try to cook food together when you get the munchies... Which more than likely results in Minho taking over because he just can't help himself. However the nights play out, they're always fun, and you're gradually getting closer to the rest of the members too. Although no one can compare to the bond you have with your Jiji.
"I don't wanna watch a movie tonight, my eyes hurt too much." He starts complaining.
"Poor baby." You tease and run your fingers through his hair, laughing.
"When are you two just going to come out with the fact that you're in love?" Seungmin asks.
You roll your eyes, "When dwaekki's fly."
"I can easily make that happen." Changbin laughs.
"We could play a game?" Felix suggests, already looking flushed from the alcohol.
Jeongin gets excited, "Let's do a drinking game! It's been a while."
"I don't believe I've ever played a drinking game with y'all."
Hyunjin hums, "Mm, you haven't. Mostly because we get crazy, we've never brought up the idea."
This piqued your interest, "More crazy than I've already seen? I don't think that's possible."
Minho chimes in this time, "You forget we're a group of men sometimes, I swear. Mix alcohol and suggestive games, it definitely gets 'crazier' than you've seen, inappropriately crazy."
You level him with a smirk, "I'm down."
"That's my y/n!" Ji says, while pulling you to sit in his lap, "Fearless."
You giggle and lean into him while Minho just narrows his eyes at you and purses his lips. Something tells you he's up to something, but you're ready for any challenge.
"Fine. Then we'll play something easy, truth or drink. If someone refuses to answer, they drink. Whoever finishes their drink first loses." Minho says.
"What does the loser have to do?" You ask.
"Pay for everyone's lunch every day for a month!" Changbin says.
"Deal." You say.Ā
You're an open book, Ji knows this. There's no question you won't answer.
Everyone is up now, getting new drinks & refills before the game starts. You can't help but notice that Chan didn't get up, he looks a little nervous for some reason. He was always the most worried about you being around so much. In the beginning it definitely came across like he didn't like you. Now you know that's not the case... you think. He tolerates you now to say the least. You couldn't blame him too much, he was just protective of his boys. You actually found it incredibly sweet, or maybe it's just that stupid soft spot you have for him.
He always tried to keep you at arms length from the group. Not wanting anyone to get too close to you. Until Jisung put him in his place, as best he could anyways.
You were in Ji's lap, watching Spirited Away. He was drawing imaginary lines and shapes on your back, while you rested your head on his shoulder, facing the tv. His head was resting on top of yours as well, and a blanket covered you both.
Chan walked in seeing this, and nearly had a stroke. He said we were being inappropriate. And specifically made it a point to tell you to be more professional as a member of the staff. Short version: know your fucking place, you're overstepping.Ā
You scoffed at him, prepared to confront him about his growing disdain towards you. Let him know he's the one being inappropriate, downright childish. But Ji nudged you onto the couch and got to him first.
It was kind of cute watching him standing there, ears becoming red and getting in Chan's face. Cute in the way that it was like a maltese puppy trying to stand up to a doberman. Then he proceeded to yell at him about how he was way out of line. Saying he was being flat out disrespectful and that he was done with the ridiculous way he has been acting about you. The last thing he said was that he didn't know what got into him, and that he'd never seen this side of Chan before.Ā
Chan was silent, looking intensely into Jisungs eyes. But he never backed down, so Chan poked his tongue to his cheek, then retreated to his room for the whole night. You had to scoop Ji off the floor right afterwards. He had let his knees buckle, and fell to the floor once Chan was gone. Citing that he wasn't sure he was going to live through the night to see the morning sun. Typical dramatic fashion for your best friend. But you soothed him, fluffing up his ego about 'defending your honor'. His words, not yours.
As that night went on though, the tiniest bit of worry coursed through you. Chan hadn't come back out. Not even when the other members came home, trying to knock on his door to greet him. Or when the food was ready to be served, you had even given knocking a try. Only after Hyunjin begged you to, because 'He already doesn't take care of himself. He needs to eat.' No, you didn't see him again that night until you had already walked out the front door. He slipped out behind you shortly after, grabbing you by the wrist and stopping you.Ā
You thought he was going to continue the argument for a moment, but no, he was apologizing. Not much more was said afterwards, but his apology was genuine and heartfelt, so you accepted it. You two ended up hugging it out, and thank goodness no one saw that, because it was incredibly cringeworthy. He had no more major issues after that. But he was still unexplainably awkward around you, but it's not like you were any better. You two simply didn't know how to interact with each other for longer than 30 seconds. And that was pushing it. You suspected that might not ever go away. He likes to keep his walls high and strong, and you're stubborn at times.
But of course,Ā despite that stubbornness. You developed some sort of feelings towards him. Feelings you refused to acknowledge, well tried to refuse. You would push those feelings down deep within your heart, put them in a little box, and tape it shut trying to forget it's there. There was no need to pine over the man, he had stay to do that for him, and who knows who else in his life. Somehow that box always ended up ripped open again.
There was never a reason to act on these feelings. Not to mention, you think you'd be breaking SO MANY rules. Putting your job, his job, hell everyone's job at risk. Or worse, making a fool of yourself when he would downright reject you.
You keep watching him, now he's shaking his leg up and down, seeming agitated. Maybe he just doesn't want everyone getting into a vulnerable state of mind while playing? Maybe he's worried somebody will say or do something wrong? That someone will cross a line, as he loves to say?
Trying to ease his negative feelings, and extend yet another olive branch. You toss a throw pillow at him, hitting him in the chest and pulling him out of his thoughts.
He looks at you, eyebrows wrinkled in confusion, and you just chuckle nervously at him saying, "Don't worry, it's like Vegas. What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas."
"God how fuckin' corny was that?" Ji teases you, poking your side making you giggle more.
To your relief, Chan is laughing with you, and shaking his head, "I just want them to behave."
"Oh relax, we're all grown. We're all friends. So we'll get to know each other more intimately, big whoop." You shrug.
"Mmm..." He replied, before raising his voice so everyone could hear him, "Whatever is spoken about tonight, doesn't leave this room."
"I swear you're the one with anxiety sometimes, not me." Ji mumbles.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah... dad." Hyunjin says as he sits next to you and Ji.
"As if that announcement even had to be made, I swear, and you wonder why we call you old." Seungmin comments.
Once everyone is settled in with their drinks, Minho directs Chan to start the game.
"Jisung, when was the last time you cried?"
He laughed, "You're trying to embarrass me because you know it was this morning, but I am confident and secure in the fact that I am a sensitive man."
He said the last bit with his hand over his heart, and his eyes closed, effectively making everyone chuckle.
"My poor baby, why were you crying?" You question teasingly.
"Please don't bring it up, he'll start blubbering all over again. Stupid, sad, dog rescue videos." Seungmin mumbles.
"Minho!" Ji shouts, pointing at him dramatically, "This question is for you. If you had to kiss someone in this room on the cheek, who would it be?"
"Hyunjin." He said bluntly, making you and everyone else laugh while Hyune just rolled his eyes.
"Would you kiss me back?" He asked him, eyes full of hope and bottom lip jutted out and pouting, trying to act cute. And succeeding, honestly.
Hyunjin acted like he was pondering the question, but ultimately was the first to take a sip from his glass, "I decline to answer."
He looked to you next, a suggestive smirk on his face, making you the next victim, "Y/niiieee..."
"Oi, be respectful." Chan scolds immediately, not liking the look at all.
"All I was going to do was repeat the question!" He said defensively, "Y/n, if you had to choose, who would you kiss on the cheek?"
You tried hard to keep your eyes from trailing over to Chan, a tingly feeling spreading across your skin at the mere thought of innocently kissing his cheek. Instead you chose the easy answer, because it wasn't a lie. You'd also kiss your best friend on the cheek any time.
"My Jiji of course," And you took his face in one hand, squeezing his cheeks between your middle finger and thumb, and plant a loud smooch on each of them, "he probably only asked because he wanted one anyways."
He just chuckles, letting you baby him and Seungmin fake gags.
"Minnieee..." You pause trying to come up with a question, "when you dye your hair next, what color would you want?"
"Green, my entire head green."
"That would look interesting." You laugh.
You all go 'round in circles for a few rounds, completely forgetting about the rules of the game. Having now finished your glasses from casually sipping throughout the game, most of you have switched to occasional shots. You're starting to feel warm and tipsy. Of course the more you all drank, the more the questions started to get more... amorous. Which is exactly how you all assumed this game would go. No wonder Chan was so anxious.
However looking over to him now, he'sĀ definitelyĀ having a good time. Like every other person, he loosens up while drinking, but tonight he seems even more so.
"Y/n," Chan starts with a sly look making your skin buzz again. Among all of you, he is 100% the most inebriated right now, "when was your first kiss?"
"Yah! He tells us to be respectful, but look how he is after a few drinks!" Changbin yells laughing.
Chan loses it, "You're right Binnie, you don't have to answer or drink." He says in between fits of squeaky laughter.Ā
You think you could listen to him laugh all day.
You shake your head and snort, "I've answered worse questions playing this game before. I was 13 when I had my first kiss."
Hyunjin nearly spits his drink out, because again, no one is drinking just as punishment anymore, "13?!"
"Well, yeah, it's a pretty normal age in America... I think..." you started to blush, "why, how old were you?" you ask Hyunjin.
He hesitates, but eventually he spoke, "I was 18."
The rest chime in saying they were also 18 or 19. With the exception of Felix who said he was 16.
Without even thinking you start to say, "Aaah, see I was 18 when I-" and you're abruptly stopped with Ji's hand slapping over your mouth.
Your eyes go wide, caught off guard, but understanding as you almost blurted out unnecessary information. Nothing that Ji hadn't known obviously, it's just that everyone else doesn't really know you on that level.Ā
"Jagi, you only had to answer the one question, adding extra info, that's not how you play the gaaaaame." He says in a sing-song voice, "Hyunjin it's your turn to ask someone."
"No no no no! What was she going to say?" Chan chuckles.
When you looked at him, he winked at you, and you had to stop yourself from going limp in Ji's arms. He knew damn well what you were going to say. Why is he teasing, noĀ torturingĀ you like this?
You peel Ji's hand off your mouth to respond "It's not your turn, you'll have to wait to ask me that."
The group starts laughing and shouting, teasing Chan who is ignoring it all, just staring at you with curious eyes and his tongue in his cheek. Does he know how hot he looks doing that?
"Okay, so then I'll ask you. What were you going to say?" Hyunjin asks calmly, trying to fight the smile off his face.
You pour yet another shot, and knock it back thinking,Ā what the hell,Ā "I was going to say I was 18 when I first hooked up with a man."
Some members looked surprised, the game taking an obvious turn. However Hyunjin, Felix, and Chan started laughing again.
"I knew that's what you were going to say." Felix slurred.Ā
"Yeah I was definitely teasing you on that, because I knew." Chan followed.
"Mmm, well judging from the shocked faces of everyone else, you two seem to be the only psychics." You try to joke, wanting the attention off of you suddenly.
"No, don't get us wrong, not all of us are as innocent as you think." Seungmin says defensively.
"Oh really now?" You respond, one brow quirking up.
Seungmin just turned red, and sat back in his seat. To which Chan started laughing, yet again. He's a giggly drunk, and you love it.
"Don't tease my puppy, babe." Ji slurred, trying to reach his arm to console Seungmin, but ultimately failing.
"I mean I was 18 too, with the same girl I first kissed." Hyunjin shrugged.
"But what do you mean 'to a man'?" Jeongin asked with a shit eating grin on his face.Ā
You promptly turned into a tomato, and started choking on air.
"You're not that slow pabo, obviously it means she's been with women too." Ji says, rather loudly and speaking freely, all while patting your back.
You're quiet. It's not like it's a secret, you've never hidden your sexuality. But it never came up in conversation with anyone here, except Jisung.
Wanting to ease the tone, Felix speaks up, "Well I was 18 when I first hooked up with a dude."
"I was 21, but everyone already knows that story." Ji slurred.
The whole conversation triggers another group laughing fit. Except for Chan, who is looking at you with those dark eyes again. And... is he blushing? Or is that the alcohol? He eventually snaps out of whatever daze he was in, and slowly smiles at you reassuringly.
You mentally kick yourself for getting your hopes up, of course he couldn't ever think of you like that. You're imagining things.
"But then, how old were you when you first hooked up with a girl?" Jeongin asked again, genuinely curious.
"A lot younger than 18..." You trailed off laughing, "I'll just say in high school."
"The air is different outside of Korea." Changbin says suddenly, sounding thoughtful.
Hyunjin nearly collapsed laughing, slapping Minho on the knee repeatedly, despite the glare he was shooting him.
"Well I just answered a bunch of questions in a row so that means I get to ask two people a question. And the second person I ask gets the next turn." You say, making up new rules.Ā
"So... Chan." He looks at you with his eyebrows raised and you just smirk, knowing you're trying to get back at him, "How old were YOU when you lost your virginity?"
He gulps and looks around at the group before answering, "I... was 18."
"Chan-hyung, you never answered us when we would ask you! Why answer her?" Jisung whines.
"I honestly don't know, maybe it's the liquor. None of you ever asked me drunk." He starts giggling.
"Okay so question 2... Binnie!" He gulps and looks at you with wide eyes, "Are you more of a boob guy?" You say grabbing your own, not even really thinking about it, "Or an ass guy?"
Changbin started laughing and answered, "Definitely ass, but I appreciate boobs too, equality."
"I am just learning so much about my fellow members lately." Seungmin whispers.
"Is that a bad thing?" You giggle.
"Not at all, it feels strangely comforting, letting loose like this." He replies and smiles softly at me, "It's been a while."
"It's freeing!" Jeongin yells abruptly, throwing his hands in the air.
"Aye, my question is for you then Min. Have you ever had a wet dream?" Changbin asks.
"... what guy hasn't? Don't all guys get them?" He asks looking around.
Then you chime in again frankly, "Girls can get them too you know."
Why does it feel like you've opened pandora's box on your sex life, in every single aspect?
Ji starts laughing, nodding his head vigorously and you know where this is about to go.
"Really now?" Felix says, mimicking your exact tone from earlier, "What was it about?"
"Mmmm... it's not your turn to ask," Then you turn to Seungmin, "And if you ask me, I will absolutely drink and not answer. No way I'm explaining a sex dream right now."
Seungmin just rolls his eyes and huffs out a laugh.
"But I wanna knooooooow," Jisung whines, "You looked so cute having one last weekend, you never told me what it was about."
Everyone was watching you two closely now, waiting to hear how he knew what you looked like in that situation.
You turned around and smacked his arm, "We weren't going to mention that ever again! Remember?!" You attempt to be angry, but you can't help it and end up smiling.
"Okay, well now I'm curious since you two are bringing this up." Minho says with a glint in his eye.
"Y/n may or may not have had one when I slept over, and I woke up to her moaning and hump--"
This time it was your turn to slap a hand over his mouth, "Jiji, Sungie, my love, my sweet sweet SWEET best friend. I don't want to kill you, but I will." You say in a dulcet tone.
He raised his hands, eyes wide and nodded his head. You couldn't help but laugh, apparently you're a giggly drunk too.
Out of the corner of your eye, you swore you saw Chan adjusting himself in his pants. But then you reminded yourself that it was just wishful thinking and an alcohol induced hallucination. Horny hallucination. God you needed to get over him and under someone else. This unrequited shit wasn't for you.
"I'm so never going to drop this you know, I wanna know what the hell happened." Minho smirked at you, to which you flipped him off jokingly.
It's Seungmin's turn next, and he's just staring at Jeongin with a blank face, "Have you ever had a one night stand?"
He pauses for a moment and then finally answers, "No, I haven't."
He looked at you now, asking his question, "You know what I have to ask now, right?"
"Go ahead." You challenge, fully prepared to choke down another shot and not answer his question, and he smiles.
"What's one of your kinks?"
You were unprepared for that question. And how could you know he would ask that, these men like to fuck around with your head.
"Relax, I just wanted to see your reaction." He says before chuckling.
You glared at him for a moment, halfheartedly. They think they can just retract questions when they get scared that they went too far. Screw that, you're answering.
"I guess the most simple one I have is edging." You shrug.
"The most simple one?!" Hyunjin asked.
"What are you a masochist? Edging is the worst, feels like torture to me." Ji says.
"But the build up is so delicious, and the end result is so worth it. It's so intense." Felix chimes in, "Choking too, that can be intense."Ā
"Hm, breath play might actually be my favorite." You admit.
"Damn y/n." Ji says, eyeing you with a smile, "You're full of surprises, even to this day."Ā
You shrug again, "Everyone has different kinks... What's one of yours?" You ask him.
He ponders for a moment, "I like being dommed sometimes."
"Big surprise." Minho says and you all laugh.
"Good one though," You nod, "That's one of mine too."
"I think I'm an exhibitionist, to an extent of course." Hyunjin says next.
"That's also not a surprise." Minho replies.
You can't help but let your eyes wander over to Chan again, while everyone else is sharing different things they're into in bed. The liquor has everyone speaking loosely. But Chan doesn't seem to care about it anymore.
You find him staring right back at you, that same look in his eyes from earlier, and you feel heat spread in your stomach, and wetness starts to pool in your panties. Maybe you weren't imagining things.
But you don't notice that Ji's observing both of you in his drunken haze. Not too faded to ignore you and Chan eye-fucking each other.
Your heart starts racing the longer you hold eye contact, and you start shifting uncomfortably on his lap, before looking away and deciding to get up.
"Alright... I need some bread to soak up this alcohol, and then I need to get home because it's already 2 in the morning." You say with a shaky breath.
"Yeah, I'm wasted right now," Jeongin says and stands, "Bed's a good idea. Goodnight everyone." And he leaves to his room.
Ji grabs your wrist, preventing you from moving, "You're not going anywhere. We're all drunk, you can't drive and no one can bring you back home."
"Fiiiiiiine," You say, "but I still want bread."
"You and your bread fixation whenever you drink." Minho mumbles, heading to the kitchen anyways to grab you some.
When he comes back he hands it to you and you start munching away happily, doing a little dance.
Meanwhile, Felix is trying to tug Chan's arms to make him stand up, but he's fighting him on it and whining. Clearly he exceeded his limit tonight drinking. He probably won't even remember the looks he was giving you, you think.
"I don't wanna go to bed." Chan whines.
Felix finally succeeds in pulling him up, "C'mon mate, you definitely need to sleep this off. You'll be miserable tomorrow. Let's get you some water too, hmm?"
Chan reluctantly holds his arm, and follows him down the hall, stumbling over his own two feet along the way. You can't help but laugh at the sight.
More of the boys say goodnight and head off to their rooms, but Ji and Minho stay with you in the living room, chatting a little longer before bed.
Ji starts going through his bags, determined that you left some pajamas here from when you slept over previously, and he kept them in a bag to give back to you. He pulls out the nightie, that you honestly forgot you brought here. But you see why you didn't ever wear it at the time. It's dark green, spaghetti straps and has lace along the bust line. It also has slits on each side of your thigh, and only covers you to the middle of your thighs. Your go to sleepware was always nighties or large tees, they're comfortable and sometimes you get hot at night. Mix in the fact that you were drinking tonight? You're already feeling overheated. But wearing this?
"Jiiiiiii, don't you have any t-shirts I can wear?" You whine.
He's already under the covers, fighting sleep, "Sorry babe... haven't done laundry... Nothing clean..."
You whine again before taking it and heading across the hall into one of the bathrooms. It was this or sleep in your sweats, and that idea sounded entirely too suffocating to you.
You slip the nightie on and brush your teeth with your designated toothbrush you had there. Jisungs idea, after you had too much tequila one night and he diligently held your hair back as you got sick.
You sigh as you're leaving, and make your way towards Ji's room. Before you reach the door though, Chan walks out of his room. He's in a black tank top, and red boxer briefs... your eyes immediately trail down and go wide. His outline clear as day. But you change your view quickly, hopefully before he notices.
It doesn't help though, now all you're doing is eyeing his arms, the muscles cut throughout them. The veins that trail all the way down to his hands. God, his hands... What wouldn't you let those hands do to you...
He scratches the back of his head, and the movement snaps you out of your gaze. You find him staring back at you for a second before answering, "Sorry, I'll just..."
You start to shake your head, "No, no. No reason to apologize." You chuckle and start shifting on your feet. You feel the skirt of your nightie swaying with you. It opened the slit wider, and Chan immediately looked down at your exposed thigh. He inhaled quietly, sucking in air through his nose.
Any other day, you'd be scrambling to cover yourself. Feeling insecure and too bare. You don't know if it was the liquor in you, but tonight? Being on display? It turned you on.
You clenched your thighs together, almost involuntarily, and Chan didn't miss that.
Time seemed to be moving too slow. He stepped towards you, nearly closing the gap between you. He's only inches away, and looking down on you. His eyes have that dark, smoldery look again. He raised his hand and brushed the curls off your face and behind your ear. When he rests his palm against your cheek, your eyes flutter shut and you lean into his touch. It's so warm, and comforting. As if it was always meant for you.
When you open your eyes, you can clearly see the lust in his is only growing. He's not holding it back anymore, biting his lip as he stares at you. You almost whimper in anticipation.
"This is your opportunity to walk away if you're not okay with me kissing you." He says lowly.
You closed your eyes, and his lips met yours. The first few seconds were sweet and soft. Almost too innocent for the heat of the moment, but then he deepened it. He was pulling you by the waist into him, running his hands down and resting them on your ass. You could easily feel how hard he was for you, even through the thin fabrics. This time you let the whimper out, and he swiped his tongue along your bottom lip before sucking it into his mouth. When you tried to do the same, he didn't give you the chance. Instead he slipped his tongue in. It was like he was lost in desire, and greedy for more. You couldn't help it when your arms wrapped around his neck, pulling him closer.
He groaned and started backing you into the wall, his lips never leaving yours. He grabbed your thighs in each hand, and hoisted you up, slotting himself between them. Your legs naturally wrapped around him, and he started rocking his length against you. His pace was achingly slow, but still delicious.
You moaned and slipped a hand up to the nape of his neck, grabbing a fistful of hair. He breaks the kiss and throws his head back with his eyes closed. He half hisses, half groans, and you can't help but rock your hips against him harder, hoping to hear more. He grips your thigh tighter, and leans down to press a quick kiss to your neck, before licking and sucking on it. He's meeting each roll of your hips with rough thrusts. And even clothed, you feel how perfectly he's rubbing your clit.
Your head is so clouded with need. Need to be touched. Need to touch him. Need to feel him inside of you. You don't even think twice when he glides his hand up your stomach, and over your breasts. He gives one a light squeeze before moving up to wrap his fingers around your neck, and your brain loses all sense for a moment.
He's just resting his hand there, but you wish he'd do more. You're not sure if this man knows just how pliant you are for him right now.
Then he brings his lips to your ear and whispers, "Can I touch you?"
His warm breath gives you chills, and you nod your head as best as you can. But that doesn't suffice him, he stops his movements against you and his grip around your throat tightens. You think you could probably get off on it if he tightens his fingers just a bit more, but he doesn't, instead he says, "I'm going to need words, babygirl."
Your hips buck into him, and you breathe out a quiet "Yes. Please..."
With that, he yanks your face closer to his by your neck. He's squeezing ever so slightly tighter around your throat. He bites your lip and you groan. But he's quick to silence you with his tongue.
Letting go, he trailed his hand back down your body and to your core. Slowly he started to rub you through the thin lace. You were so sensitive, that when he found your clit and pressed a circle into it. You couldn't help but breathe out his name. He pushed your panties to the side, and when he felt you for the first time you felt him smile against your lips.
"Babygirl... fuck, you're so wet for me."Ā
And as he whispered that, he slipped a finger in you. He set a steady pace, dragging against your walls with a curl. Each pump hitting your sweet spot, and the heel of his hand creating delightful friction against your swollen bud. His breathing was heavy in your ear, breaking through all your helpless whimpering. When he added a second finger, you couldn't hold back anymore.
"Chan..." You moaned louder this time, while simultaneously letting your head drop against the wall with a thud.
He pulled his lips off of you, eyes wide when he met yours. He started blinking as if he was coming back to reality. When he looked into your eyes again, he looked startled.
"What's wrong?" You pant, feeling hot and dizzy, wishing he would keep moving his hands.
Instead, he quickly slips his fingers out of you, and sets your feet on the floor. Then he backs away.
"I'm sorry, y/n... I don't know what came over me, that was incredibly inappropriate and out of character." Chan mumbled.
Your heart sinks, as you feel the sting of rejection. Tears threatened to well in your eyes, and you immediately felt the oncoming headache from holding them back. You shouldn't feel so emotional and upset. This was all spur of the moment. But you do, you feel devastated.
Regardless, you clear your throat, "I understand." You force an unsettling chuckle out, when a sob threatens to escape instead.
He puts on a blank face that feels so cold, and responds with "Don't forget to drink some water, stay hydrated... I'll be heading to bed now, you should too."
All you really want to say is don't leave, because you want to finish what was started. Because you've wanted this for so long. Because the box you kept away in the depths of your heart had ripped open once again. And all the languished emotions were here, front and center, aching to bear it all to him. To let him see. Confess. But that would be selfish, he's clearly uncomfortable with it all. He probably regrets it. An alcohol induced affair. In his eyes, a complete mistake.Ā
So instead you say, "Okay."
Because that's all you can muster before the tears start to fall. You turn away,Ā going back to facing Ji's door.Ā
"Goodnight y/n... Sleep well." He says, and puts a tentative hand on your shoulder.
You shrug it off, and escape to Ji's bedroom. To your surprise he's sitting up in bed, and ushering you come to him with his arms open and bottom lip pouted out.
You run to him, a bit dramatically and fall a part in his arms. But you can't help it, you sealed these emotions away for too long. You were too hurt at the moment to even try pushing them back down.
Jisung is your life saver, he's comforting you, rubbing his fingers on your scalp and rocking you back and forth to try and calm you. He gives you time before you have to explain why exactly you're having a melt down.
"Chan's an idiot." He finally says.
And you lean back to look at him, confused on how quickly he's put two and two together.
"Well you weren't exactly quiet. Between your exaggerated moans and his animalistic grunting right outside my door, of course I heard it." He rolled his eyes jokingly and that earned a laugh from you.
You smacked him lightly, "I was lost in the moment... don't judge me."
"Jagi..." He says, and wipes the tears from your cheeks with his thumbs, "You've liked him for so much longer than a moment."
Your heart starts pounding faster again. How could he know that. It's the one thing you've kept from him, from everyone, hell you even denied it to yourself for as long as possible. Was it that obvious? Who else knows? You go to speak, fear written across your face.
"No. You were not obvious, in fact you're an amazing actor. I'm sure none of the other members noticed, and definitely no one else at work knew." He answers before you can even get words out.
You nod slowly, "So then, how'd you know?"
He smiled proudly, "I'm a people watcher, I see all."
You smack him again, a little harder this time.
"Alright, alright, but I really did see all the looks you'd give him when no one else was watching... I know what longing looks like, and..." he trailed off.
You knew that wasn't all, "And?"
"Aaaaand... maybe that night you had that wet dream. You were moaning his name while humping the pillow..."
"You never told me that!" You shoved your head into your hands, distraught.
"Well I didn't want to embarrass you! I honestly didn't think you looked at any of us that way until then. Like I said, a good actor. I figured you'd tell me when you were ready to."
You sighed, "I'm sorry. It's just a stupid crush, it'll pass."
"You're grown, you don't have to apologize to anyone for liking someone. But y/n," He cupped your cheek forcing you to look at him again, "this isn't just a simple crush, is it?"
With that question, you felt the tears spilling all over again. He pulled you to lay down with him, holding you tight against him and letting you cry it all out. Somewhere between his low humming, and your quiet weeping, you fell asleep.
When you blink the sleep away from your eyes the next morning, you're still entangled with Ji. He's literally wrapped around you like a koala.
You snort out a laugh and go to check the time on your phone. 7:30 am, entirely too early. You decide to try and fall back asleep, but last night's events rush back to you. Dread fills your chest, and your fight or flight kicks in. You're trying to gently escape Ji's hold, and not hyperventilate. The latter is more difficult but, since that man can sleep through anything, you were able to succeed.
You get changed back into your clothes, and leave a note for him saying that you're leaving and you'll text him when you get home. You can't bear to face Chan, let alone anyone else who might've heard you two last night. So you decide to skip out on the usual coffee and breakfast routine. You all have that tradition after a drunken night, but you know Ji will cover for you with everyone anyways.
You're rushing down the hall, wanting to grab your things and head for the door. Panic is starting to bubble over, and you're haphazardly covering yourself up to be unnoticeable. As you're slipping the mask over your face, a voice stops you.
"Morning... don't you want to stay for breakfast?"
You can't bring yourself to look at Chan, those words only setting the box of emotions in your heart on fire. You know he only means it in the way that it is an unbroken tradition. No matter how sick one of you gets, group breakfast is a must for recuperation. No one has skipped it in the months you've been doing it. We all take care of each other. But the idea makes your mouth bitter, because you wish it was just you two. Alone. Making breakfast the morning after earth shattering sex. And the fact he doesn't mean it in that way in the slightest makes tears prick back into your eyes.
Yes, you know you're being petty. You should stick it through for your friends. Take a page from Chan and act like nothing ever happened. You just can't find it inside you to care, you need to go home and lick your wounds before facing anyone here again. Call it childish, but you didn't care.
You're struggling to find words and just blurt out, "No thanks." And rush out the door, heading to the safety of your car.
You left Chan standing there. Unbeknownst to you, hurting just as much.
Special thank you to @jeonginsleftcheek who encouraged me through finishing this! I had finished it, and then accidentally deleted the entire ending. But in turn, that was a good thing I think... because now there'll be a part 2! If you'd like to be added to a taglist, let me know and I'll start one! Feedback is always cherished, but be gentle pleeeeeeeease ā”

pairing ā¢ yoongi x reader (hints of ot7)
genre/au ā¢ smut, fluff, idol!au, long time ??
summary ā¢ the nerves have been shaking Yoongiās usual confidence while preparing for his first solo tour ā what a relief that youāre here then.
wc & rating ā¢ 3k | 18+
warnings/content ā¢ dom/sub dynamics, grinding, protected sex, riding, emotional sex?, praise kink, groping, semi-clothed sex, size kink, breast play, temperature play, orgasm control, yoongiās hands are everywhere help, aftercare, pillowtalk <3
a/n: it's been a year since yoong's tour kicked off so i wanna celebrate with this, along with my return here! never thought i'll do this cuz i donāt usually write nor read this au but he won again on the poll last year so here we are XD! this is mainly inspired by what i was feeling while watching the live stream of both his shows in the first city of his d-day tour! pretty divider by the amazing @cafekitsune <3
after the final song, you were just as surprised as the crowd around you. a faint chuckle leaves you at the way Yoongi ended his concert.
of course, you should've expected that he'll pull something like this.Ā
āiām so proud of you yoongsāĀ
you greet him enthusiastically as soon as you spot him at the entrance of the hallways near his dressing room. heās smiling so wide, reaching you at once with his airport-like walk like how he exited the stage quickly earlier.
you beam once he catches you, wrapping your arms around his shoulders despite how sweaty he is.
āit went wellā he giggles lightly, caging you in his arms before grabbing your hand to bring you to the backstage area where you both can see the audience without being seen.
the gummy smile plastered on his face never wavered as he watches the fans dispersing outside and you have an inkling that it's reminding him of the world tours with the boys before.
āi told you it wouldā you whisper once he turns to you, leaning in to give him a peck but Yoongiās hand reaches up to grab your neck, pulling you in to catch your lips once more and deepen the kiss.
a small whimper elicits from you, both from being needy and worry that any staff might see you both like this but Yoongi seems to not care. it must be the adrenaline and the whiskey combo he had during the concert cause his calloused hands start roaming your body.Ā
a total opposite during soundcheck where heās simply cuddling you while waiting during the delay that he almost fell asleep.
though Yoongi's performed in front of millions of people for a decade now, he still feels anxious since heās doing this on his own and itās been a long time since he met his fans in person. he was naturally nervous about this but youāve been doing your best to support him so he's really grateful that youāre here.
teasing him earlier when he put those yellow sunglasses on while you rake your hand through his luscious locks thankfully helped ease his nerves.
"yeah yeah i saw the cat edit"
āyouāre so cuteā
.
a firm grab of your ass reminds you of where the two of you are, nudging Yoongi slightly to release you. both breathless from the kiss, heās looking at you in bewilderment until you gestured him to the waiting staff whoās here to take his post-concert pictures.
āpics firstāĀ
he only answered with a pout after releasing you but he followed. you on the other hand couldn't look at the photographer as embarrassment floods you, immediately retreating to the dressing room to wait for Yoongi there.
grabbing another glass of Henny, you scroll through your phone for updates on whatās going on outside. you did sneak out earlier and lined up with fans to get some merch and talked to some of them because well, you are one of them.
loving the boys and their music is one thing you share in common.
.
after a while, the door opens, revealing a smiling Yoongi like he hadnāt been teasing you this whole time.
maybe that was part of his plan but youāve been patiently waiting. it even came to the point where you can't wait to be all over him now that everythingās done for the night.
placing your empty glass of brandy on the small side table, you drop your phone on the couch before approaching Yoongi.Ā he chuckles when you hastily drag him toward the couch before climbing on his lap.
he doesnāt mind really, knowing how needy you get after he performs like you were in the past. he mightāve unintentionally teased you like he does to everyone else but it's one of the things he loved about you.Ā
how easily you get turned on in every little thing he and the others do but especially for this. knowing his voice can make you crumble instantly gives him that satisfaction that he didnāt know he had when he first met you.
āyouāre worked up this much __?ā he teases, hands situating themselves on both sides of your waist. āis it the black or white one?ā he adds nonchalantly, pertaining to his outfits prior to the one heās wearing right now.
āshut up, you know what your voice does to meā you whine impatiently, clutching the silver bone necklace around his neck before leaning in to kiss him again.
ah, the chain, another one that you love seeing on him. he'll always be fascinated with your favourites no matter how long you've been with them.
you deepened the kiss this time and Yoongi welcomed them with fervour. itās his turn to get lost in the moment now that youāre needier than him. his ending fit riled you up this much that now youāre grinding yourself desperately on him but hey, heās not complaining.Ā
his hands smooth around your covered thighs after, lingering between the crease of your legs before he releases your lips.
āiām surprised youāre wearing leggings, you hate itāĀ
āitās coldā
āexplains the sweatshirt tooā he muses, one hand tugging the baggy sleeve of your white tour sweatshirt with both his aliases on your chest.
his heart warms seeing it on you, the way youāre proudly wearing him even though this whole thing between you and them still remains a secret. his hands creep underneath your top, caressing your sides that hasten your roll against his crotch.
you lean in to kiss Yoongi once more but he grabs your sides, stopping you.
āwant it off thoughā he whispers, the mischief in his eyes shifts to a demanding one.
his darkening orbs are looking straight into yours, making you squirm against him. you didnāt waste any time at once, taking off both your sweatshirt and your bra in a frenzy, much to Yoongiās satisfaction.
youād know with that cocky look resurfacing on his pretty face.
now that youāre bare in front of him, Yoongi can see your crotch rubbing along the top of his denim zippers. he could watch you like this, let you get off on your own until you cum like heās done many times but he relents.
lately, heās been so busy with the tour preparation that he missed seeing you this needy. he reaches down to cup your pussy, not surprised to find you drenched knowing how easy it is for you to get wet.Ā
you squirm at his touch, trying to get more friction by rubbing your swollen clit on the buckle of his belt. he knows it's you silently wanting his fingers to help you get off but his hand abruptly leaves you.
frustration looms on your face, your lips turning into a frown but Yoongi grabs your body closer and instantly latches his mouth on your tits, earning a surprised shriek from you.
āyoongi!āĀ
you didnāt mean to be loud but with how Yoongās been licking your pebbled nipples and occasionally nibbling them, youāre starting to forget that there are still people outside the door who can hear you both.
one hand of yours takes a handful of his messy jet-black hair, pushing his face more into your chest. he groans and continues to nip around one tit while his other hand plays around your neglected breast.
kneading and pinching nonstop, youāre unable to hold in the whiny moans coming out of you as your other hand grips his shoulder. youāre relishing it, the rough feeling of callous fingers against your now-swollen nipples.Ā
taking a glance down at Yoongi, you notice how wet he is. he's drenched in sweat but my fuck does he look even hotter when he does. his mouth releases your peppered breasts, opting to fondle your clothed pussy this time.
ādonāt tell me youāve been wet since the first songā he teases and you look away from his heated gaze. he got his answer when he felt your cunt twitch through your clothed core. rough pads of his fingers rub you faster, more of your slickness seeping through your leggings to his hands.
he was clad in all black earlier, one of your favourites so he wasnāt that surprised.
āyoongi..ā youāre panting, almost begging him with the way you're gripping his hair and shoulders. you need him to do something, anything more than teasing at this point.Ā
it surprises you when Yoongi grabs the empty glass of Henny that you put aside on the table earlier, taking the ice to his mouth and heās back to assaulting your breasts. he rolls the ice cube with his tongue around your nipples, making you shiver at the cold and wet sensation.
youāre whimpering, legs shaking as the band on your lower abdomen threatens to snap with how Yoongiās cold and wet fingertips fondling your core. the multiple stimulations are pushing you nearer to your orgasm. youāre not sure if heās aware or not, if this was his plan all along.
ā..oh fuckāĀ
āhmm?āĀ
āyoongi..i donāt.. wanna cum in thisāĀ
you cry, eyes mustering your neediest look towards him, hoping heāll listen to your pleas. and Yoongi did, his hand leaving your drenched pussy and mouth releasing your breast. relief courses through you, smiling at him despite the uncomfy feeling of your leggings sticking to your core.
āof course, you donāt, always wanting to cream my cockāĀ
he doesnāt say it in a mocking manner, the hint of adoration coming forward within his hooded eyes. you get off of him once his hands release you, quickly shimmying down your leggings while he unbuckles his baggy pants and boxers.
you didnāt miss him whipping out a condom from his front pocket, making you suspicious with your arms now crossed over your chest.Ā
āand why-ā
āyouāre here and i did remember you love being fucked anywhereā
he answers right away and your face morphs in shame, arms sliding down to your elbows, revealing your breasts again to Yoongi.
you hate being paranoid like this though you know heās always been prepared. and heās right, you do love it when they fuck you anywhere they like whether it be on the venue, in their vans or in their hotel rooms.Ā
itās one of your favourites when you join them on tours before.
āyoonā..ā you try but he beckons you closer and helps you back onto his lap, kissing you right away and ignoring your protests because he knew right away what you were gonna say.
ānone of that hmm? lemme get you readyā
he took himself out and put on the condom already before his hands skitter around your inner thighs.
ānoāĀ
he quirks a brow at you, wanting to make sure if that's what you want. even though youāre stark naked figureās been enticing him to just fuck it and ruin you like youāve been begging for, he's been a pro at controlling himself to prepare you.
huffing before wrapping your hands around his neck, you squeeze his nape as an answer.Ā
you just want him inside you and you donāt wanna wait anymore.
a smirk graces Yoongi's face at your impatience before helping your body up to grind on him again.
now rubbing your bare pussy against his dick, you enjoy watching him seethe with each friction. your hips circle until his swollen tip catches your entrance, pausing just to tease him. one of his hands scrambles to grip your hip and you chuckle before lifting yourself, grabbing his dick and lowering slowly.
āfuck,fuck,fuckāĀ
you watch Yoongi close his eyes, a plethora of curses coming out from his mouth. youāre whimpering in return, pussy walls fluttering around him to try to accommodate his thick girth.
ābig..fuck, yoongiā you cry, tears threatening to well in your eyes.Ā
you love the feeling though and he knows it but Yoongi still tries to comfort you, roaming his veiny hands around your body till he reaches your breasts.
you start moving your hips slowly, planting your hands against his clothed chest as you try to take more of him. his hands fly on both sides of your waist, feline eyes also watching you while youāre slowly adjusting to him.
āmore..ā he grunts, prompting you to go faster as he tightens his grip on your waist. you try to roll your hips faster then deeper until you bottomed down.
pausing for a bit, you couldnāt help but lean in and whine against his clothed shoulder with how his cockās filling you deliciously.Ā
he has other plans though, releasing a deep groan after you unconsciously clenched around him. he starts fucking up to you, pouring all that adrenaline rush coursing through his bloodstream.Ā
a loud moan escapes you when he finds that soft spot, causing you to pull back and again note the cocky smirk emerging on his handsome face.
āyoongi..fuckāĀ
āshhhhā
he silences you with a finger on his puckered lips, hips bucking up to you faster while he repeatedly hits that spongy spot again.
you struggle but you wanna be good for him so you close your eyes and force yourself to keep your moans in. it results in you gasping instead, small whimpers still escaping you with how magnified everything feels.Ā
āyou listen really well babyā amusement laces Yoongiās tone, eliciting deep moans after when you clamp around him with the praise. his groans spur you to ride him faster but youāre starting to feel the burn on your legs.
he mustāve felt you slowing down cause you found him grinning once you reopened your eyes. gritting your teeth, you dig your nails into Yoongiās clothed shoulders and call his name in a whimper, biting your lip to hold back your release but his praise makes you crumble.
"yeah? come on __" he gauges you, kissing you at once to swallow the moans that you couldnāt keep in once you reach your peak.
he slows down his pace, letting you ride your own high as his mouth peppers your jaw then later your neck with kisses. his hands continue to caress your naked body until they reach down on your ass.
you let out a surprised yelp when he squeezes them hard, causing you to grip his damp hair once he starts fucking up to you again.Ā
calling your name with a deep groan, you whimper by his ear in response as he chases his release. heās relentless with his fucking, groping your ass nonstop until you feel him explode in the condom.
you do miss it when he fills you up but you both canāt risk anything while heās still on tour.
āshit..ā he chuckles after releasing you, pushing his hair back with a satisfied look on his face but it shortly disappears when he notices the small tears in your eyes.
āwas i too rough?ā he worries but you shake your head.Ā
āyou know i love itā you reply with a quick peck to his now perplexed face. he doesnāt say anything, waiting for you to continue.Ā
āi just got emotional..you knowāĀ
a small smile of relief breaks into Yoongiās face, stroking your naked back while youāre both coming down from your highs.Ā
āiām glad youāre hereā he whispers, kissing your forehead. you donāt fucking know why you're suddenly emotional but it could be because of oxytocin flowing through you right now.
āthe seesaw acoustic made me cryā you sniff, nuzzling Yoongi's clothed chest thatās a bit damp now, mixed with sweat and your tears but neither of you mind it.
āwhy? the lyrics still?āĀ
he did remember you crying after hearing it for the first time years ago, the lyrics being the sole reason of it.
āitās just.. i donāt know, it reminds me of when you guys were touring beforeā you admit, melancholy in your voice while you reminisce watching his solo performance during their last world tour as a group.Ā
āthank youā he pauses, looking away from you. āfor staying with us after all these yearsā.Ā he takes your hand and plays with it as he says those words.
you adore this side of Yoongi and now you feel bad for doubting him earlier. meeting them years ago and staying this entire time meant a lot of hardships that you went through together with the rest of his members.
āi miss all of you togetherā you give Yoongi a quick peck on his heated cheeks before giggling, all the sadness gone at the sight of him blushing. he sits up right away and grabs your face to do the same on your lips before lifting your body off of him.
āyou see each of them all the time more than i do, iām jealousā
he gets up, pulling off the used rubber before picking up your clothes that he threw around earlier. he emerges in front of you after, wet wipes in his hand as he parts your sore legs.
āwho knows, maybe me and Jimin will drop byāĀ
he stops, letting out a snort and you raise a brow at him, mind suddenly alert to the possibility.
āheās coming right?āĀ
āidk babeā heās got that teasing smile and you wanna cry.Ā
āyoonggiiiii..ā
āis this why you came here?ā
ānoāĀ
youāre back to sulking because the boys wonāt tell you anything either. itās something theyāve all kept a secret cause even Jimin wonāt budge earlier when you tried to get the answer from him during pillow talk.Ā
however, Yoongi surprises you amidst your sulking when his headās suddenly between your legs, licking up a stripe of your swollen folds, causing you to whine at the sensitivity.
he knows youāre tired so he stops your hand from grabbing his damp hair.
Ā ālaterā he mutters, licking his glistened lips as he wipes your pussy.Ā
you didnāt reply, still lying down on the couch while trying to put your bra, panties and leggings back on. getting up would be impossible so you wanna stay on the couch for a bit to cool down.
āi wanna surprise everyone okay? and youāre always on stan twitterā
he gives up, grinning at you with that adorable gummy smile before grabbing another glass of whiskey on the table.Ā
then instead of wearing it back, you throw your merch shirt at him.
āYOU GET DEETS BECAUSE OF MEā you yell, earning a deep chuckle from Yoongi.
then he pulls out his phone and takes a picture of you, sending it to your group chat with a thumbs up caption. the others surprisingly replied immediately, with Jimin responding with a wink emoji.
oh they will pay for this.

5 weird things that youāve eaten in the Devildom.
A/n: i thought about what foods MC mightāve eaten in the Devildom since I donāt really see it on here going into depth for any other reason than smut. (no hate to those who do, I enjoy it too)
Warnings this post includes: Freaky demon food, demon body parts , MC pulls a William Buckland ( look up what he did to a king of France), spiders with muscles, just a bunch of dumb weird shit, Mc also wears a suit, in Diavolos section, nothing super romantic happens but you can think of it as both,
5# Devil Spider Crab Sushi Roll
When Leviathan heard that you liked sushi he immediately got all giddy and excited. He was the first one out of all his brothers to try it and the first one to introduce it to the rest of them.
āReally? Leviathan being the one to introduce people to new things?ā You smiled as he blushed and looked away from you, the idea of it was so rare that you couldnāt help but be an asshole about it.
āHey! Iām a shut in not a gatekeeper! Now are you gonna try it or not?!ā He practically shoved the wooden chopsticks into your chest and you took a minute to glance down at the odd looking sushi that was still trapped in itās container.
It was wrapped in the same way regular sushi would be wrapped. Rice,seaweed, more rice. It was just the main ingredient that made you hesitant.
3 gigantic spiders legs poking out through the middle of all 7 pieces of sushi.
If Levi hadnāt told you that those were spider legs you probably wouldāve thought they were crab legs thatās how red they were,but that was just the meat of the Devil Spider Crab, the fact that they were big enough to muscle and bone in their legs made you want to almost throw up.
Using your chopsticks you pluck one of the sticky pieces of sushi out of the container and raise it to your face. Sniff sniff. āDoesnāt smell like anything weirdā¦ā Thatās always a good sign right? You almost place the sushi in your mouth until-
āWAIT!!!ā
You tilted your head as Levi set down small bowl of bubbling hot blue sauce. Sniff Sniff. It had a strong sweet smell, but you donāt remember seeing anything similar to this in the store where you guys bought the sushi inā¦
āuhhā¦.this kind of Sushi can be kinda dryā¦.s-s-so I made some dipping sauce for you!!! I didnāt even have to alter it because all the ingredients are totally human friendly!ā You couldnāt help but smile at Leviathanās thoughtful. He really went out of his way to make sure everything could be enjoyed safely huh?
Taking up your chopsticks with the piece of sushi in its clutches you dunk it in the still bubbling sweet blue sauce, blow on it in an attempt to cool it off, before giving up and just shoving the entire thing in your mouth.
Crunch!
Leviathan watches it all with intensity, watching as you crunch of the legs of the spider, shoving the legs that poke out into your mouth before swallowing it all.
āS-soā¦.what do you think?ā
Placing a finger to your chin and staring at the floor with a hardened gaze while attempting to put the flavors together.
āHmmā¦..tastes like honey barbecue chicken.ā
Not really the reaction he was looking for but hey, at least you liked the sauce!
4# Hellfire Zombie Body Ramen LIMITED EDITION FLAVOR
āHolly shit! MC! Come check this out!ā It was about two in the morning. You and Mammon were at a gas station a few blocks down from the HOL. It was an obviously a bad idea to be out so late on a school night but honestly when did you ever go through with your refusals to Mammon anyway?
You shuffle over to where Mammon was excitedly pointing at, a flavor of his favorite brand of ramen came into view, one that you never seen beforeā¦
āIs that a new flavor? Iāve never seen that in the grocery store we go toā¦ā You squint your eyes at the green packaging. āHellfire Zombie Body Ramen: LIMITED EDITION!!! SPICE: XXXXā There was even a picture of a Zombie on the front.
āThought they stopped sellinā these but the gas station has been loaded wit em all this time! Aināt that right Belial?ā
The Demon cashier slowly blinked as you glanced down at his name tag, sure enough it said āBelial.ā
āā¦yes.ā Man if there was one thing that the Devildom and the human world had in common it would probably be their retail workers hate for their jobs.
After about twenty ish minutes, the two of you snuck your way into the kitchen to prepare for your midnight snack. Once it was finished, you had a styrofoam cup filled with the ramen that you had recently bought.
āTada! Enjoy!ā You take a look at the ramen for the first time. The noodles were a dark bloody red to represent intestines, a few specks of brain and some teeth were scattered around in the broth, finally when you poked the noodles around to inspect some more you saw a big yellow eyeball hidden in the noodles, something that you promptly handed over to Mammonās cup.
āHmmā¦ā After some poking prodding, you finally take your fork and twist it around some of the noodles. Raising the steaming red strings of intestines to your nose to give it a sniff. Sniff sniffā¦.ugh gross and smells slightlyā¦.burnt?
Whatever, you thought while deciding to just bite the bullet and take a chomp full of the zombie ramenā¦before spitting it back into the cup again.
COUGH COUGH HACK! āOi! D-donāt go dying on me!ā Mammon practically teleports to your side and rubs your back as you cough up a storm.
Cough! āā¦Itās-ā hack! cough! āburnt AND sour!ā Pushing away the cup, you grab the glass of water Mammon offers to you with a guilty, shameful look in his face.
āā¦I mightāve been on my phone for a little too long while those were in the microwaveā¦.hehā HE PUT THEM BOTH IN AT THE SAME TIME? āa-and it was super rotten flesh flavor! S-so the sour part aināt my fault!ā
Mammon then grabs his cup and takes a fork full before taking a big bite out of his own ramenā¦.before spitting it back into the cup as wellā¦
āEughā¦that DOES taste like assā¦ā
3# SUPER CUTE KITTY MEW MEW PUDDING
You and Satan stared down in awe at the plate that was set in front of you by your waitress.
āYour āSuper Cute Kitty Mew Mew Puddingā with extra āCute Kitty Kitty Mew Mew sugar drizzleāā¦.Lord Satan andā¦.human master.ā The waitress then grumbled about putting in her two week notice as more cats started surrounding your table.
āā¦Itās perfectā
āMarvelousā¦.ā
āA grace to this realmā¦ā
āHow could something ever be this gloriousā¦?ā
The two of you are, of course, talking about the giant massive portion of wiggling cat shaped pudding. It had everything on the head of a cat, two giantic ears, 8 whiskers, a big triangle nose and two adorable big eyes-
āMew!ā
and it was alive.
The two of you spent hours cooing and gushing over the Kitty pudding. Feeding it mapple syrup and sugar packs while one of the chefs goes on a tirade about how heās āSick of his job.ā and ārefuses to make another damn cat pudding for grown ass people.ā Oh yeah thatās right, about a good 70% of the people surrounding you had their own cute cat pudding and were happily munching away at it.
But not you and Satan no no no.
ā¦Well, at least not yet. You had to get attached first!
So about 30 minutes before closing, you can Satan scooped up a massive ear of the kitty pudding and tap the ends of your spoons together.
Click!
āCheers to cat cafes?ā He smiled as you smiled warmly right back at him, glad that you approved of his new use of human lingo.
āTo cat cafes!ā
The pudding itself wasnt particularly all that special, but it wasnāt about the taste it was about the effect. Once you chewed the pudding into little bits the kitty just multiplied into even more tiny kitties, now your mouth was filled with meowing tiny kittens!
āThis is heavenā¦ā
āIndeedā
2# RAD CAFETERIA FOOD.
Quietly standing on the lunch line you watch as the goblin women in front of you, green skin, red lipstick, with a cigarette in her mouth, scoop up a large amount of dark purple slop and raise it up towards you slightly.
āMove ova ya tray.ā She says bluntly in a deep raspy voice probably due to all the smoking sheās done. You do as you are told, shakily holding out your tray as she plopped the mush of dark purple slop right down in the biggest section of your tray.
āT-thank you maāamā¦ā Her face lights up for a second after you give your gratitude, before she slams down another big portion of purple bullshit on your tray againā¦mostly likely a reaction from your manners. Seems like the staff here arenāt exactly used to thatā¦
You take a seat next to Beelzebub after paying for your food, by the looks of it he was on his 7th tray, staring intensely at it.
Munch Munch Chew āYou gonna-ā gulp āfinish that?ā Guess the uncertainty on your face was too obvious.
āThe lunch lady on line 9 gave me extraā¦Iām not sure if i should eat it but I donāt wanna be rudeā¦ā You continue to stare at your plate while looking back at the goblin lady who was still serving a very long line of hungry RAD students.
āYou mean Ms.Pruin?ā Beel questions as he slides over his next plate. āSheās the best cook in RAD, her food is really good. You should give it a try.ā
You look over at the goblin lady, now Ms.Pruin, once again, still working tirelessly serving hungry students but every now and then glancing over at your direction with a hopeful look in her eye.
Wellā¦if Beel says itās the best, itās gotta at least be somewhat okay, right. With that you take your spoon and scoop up a portion of the purple slop and stick it right into your mouth.
Munch munch munch
You brace yourself for a wave of overwhelming foreign flavors, something nasty, something that would numb your tongue right out your mouth, something-
Huh?
āWaitā¦thereās no flavor!ā You stared at your spoon in confusion before taking some more bites out of the slop. Nothing.
āReally? Let me see.ā Beel takes your spoon from you and pops a large portion into his mouth, munching on it carefully before swallowing it all down before putting a finger to his chinā¦then his face lights up.
āThe original recipe has an ingredient thatās deadly to humans, angels, and even some demons. She must have taken it out and given you a modified version of the dish.ā
You smiled wildly to yourself before gobbling up the rest of your tasteless lunch with glee and from that day, you made sure to always get your lunch from Line 9.
1# Demon Heart.
You sat from across Diavolo at the table outside in the large gazebo in the middle of the pond. Glistening clear water so still surrounds the two of you. Schools of fish circling around you constantly, the trees droop down and sway with the wind, flowers of all different colors are scattered all around the two of you. Just the two of you.
You unconditionally straightened your tie as Diavolo stares at you, elbows set down right on the edge of the edge, resting his chin on the back of his hands, staring. Deeply and lovingly.
āI cannot express enough to you enough how happy I am that you accepted my invitation.ā You sigh, glad that he was the one to break the tense silence.
āNo problem Lord Diavolo, I mean I donāt think anyone would turn down the opportunity to come to a place like this. Itās gorgeous.ā You look around some more, taking in all the details as you were sure that you wouldnāt be coming back here anytime soon.
āIām sure after that long day at RAD as well as that car ride, that you must be starving yes?ā You nodded, Diavolo has asked you not to eat lunch after you agreed to his invite.
āIām glad. I have a surprise for you.ā As soon as he said that, Barbatos as well as some other staff members of the Demon Kings Castle, two hidden dishes are set in front of you both. His is revealed while yours stays in front of you. Some fancy looking meat and strange looking vegetables on the side, drizzled over the meat was bright blue sauce.
āThe food looks amazing.ā It looked like something youād see in a five Michelin star restaurant, the fact that he got to eat things like that every single day whenever he wanted was a concept that you were still struggling to comprehend, even after all the time youāve known him.
āYours is something much grander. I promise.ā With those words, he moves over your plates and take your hands into his own. Looking at you with full sincerity.
āMCā¦by now you know of my dream for all three realms, peace, equality, and prosperity for all.ā You watch as frowns in shame after he spoke.
āHoweverā¦give our past with eating humans in various ways, myself included,I feel as if that it would be right to set things even. An eye for an eye.ā
You squint at him, what was he saying? Did he mean what you really think he means? Thereāsā¦.thereās no way he actuallyā¦.
Before you could even form another thought the your dinner plate was revealed, and you could stop your head from looking down.
āā¦huh?ā
A big, brownish, reddish, demon heart laid in the middle of your plate, right in front of you, cleaned and prepared for your consumption.
He was literally letting you eat his heart to atone for his past.
āYou donāt have to eat it, I would never force you to do something. However do know that I have more where that came from, Iām sure itāll grow back eventually.ā While you only really heard bits and pieces of that due to the fact that you were still in shock, you got the message.
āā¦.MC?ā Finally you relaxed your shoulders and calmed down, before a smile came on your face as you looked at Diavolo.
āIāve eaten many strange things before in this world. But Iāve never eaten the heart of a future demon king before.ā
And before he could get another world in, you sliced up the heart and gobbled it all up, bite by bite by bite. It tasted like human world meatā¦.which kind, you werenāt exactly sure,more like all of them at once but you were sure about one thing.
āHow does it taste?ā
You grin widely.
āTastes like home.ā
#I feel like Diavolo would have more than one heart#how many exactly? I donāt know#obey me#obey me shall we date#obey me x reader#obey me diavolo#obey me leviathan#obey me beelzebub#obey me satan#obey me mammon#obey me!#obey me mc

Never Yours | Part 3
Part 1 part 4
Pairing: Simon Ghost Riley x reader
Summary: He had seen blood hundreds of times before, but never from you. He didn't know what to expect while listening to your cry's on the phone praying you wouldn't loose consciousness. Part one posted above to start this read!
Word count: 2.1k
Warnings: 18+, violent theme, weaponry use, blood, symptoms of panic
Tag List: @yyiikes @talooolaaloolla
(not fully edited, apologies for any inconsistencies!)
As quietly as his large build would let him, he crossed the room just to the foot of your bed. He looked to all the machines around you and buttons that were beeping or flashing, it all made him feel more anxious. His eyes landed on your heart monitor where they rested for quite some time, he watched the small screen and lines and noticed his own heart begin to resume a normal rate. A smile came over your face as you saw him and tried to reach an arm out to him as he swiftly moved to the side of the bed. He gently grabbed your hand and placed it down on your stomach, he didnāt want you moving one bit.
You put your other hand over the top of his and stared into his eyes, without words trying to tell him that you were okay. Looking at him you adjust to sit up as you tried to clear your throat.Ā
From behind him, he pulled a visitorās chair as close as it could be to the bed and sat down intent on staying every second he was allowed. As soon as you had awoken you had asked to see Simon, not giving yourself any time to take in the injuries you had acquired or to think back to what had happened.Ā
Tears began to flood your eyes as you remembered the events that had unfolded and left you starting to shaking. Immediately Simons eyes grew wide as he stood from the chair and cupped your face with his large hand.
āDove what is it? Are you in pain?ā The nervousness in his voice told you that he too was scared, confirmed by him calling for a nurse from the bedside- never letting go of your hand. Clearing your throat again you take in a shaky breath and touch Simons arm to get his focus back to you.Ā
A nurse had made their way into the room with a haste but you and Simon both assured her as she made her way back out of the room that everything was okay. He looked back to you and leaned over so you wouldnāt strain your voice.
āItās not the pain Simon, I-I just havenāt processed it all yet.āĀ Ā He let out a small breath and sat down again in the small chair. He brushed his thumb gently over your hand and looked at you with his brows furrowed.
āSo much happened so fast, I donāt think Iām remembering all of the details right.ā He pushed a tear off your cheek with a smile.
āAll that matters is that youāre alright. Whoever did this-ā He took a pause to again to inhale and then continue.Ā
āWhoever did this will answer to me, the only thing you need to worry about is getting better.ā Your eyes began to feel heavy with the sedatives you had been given as your muscles relaxed, Simon continued to gently thumb over your hand.Ā
Hours passed as you slept, Simon watching you and every person who entered the room ensuring that nobody was taking you again from him. He listened to the shoes shuffling by in the hallway and watched your chest fall and rise with each breath, grateful that you were able to rest.Ā
His phone pocket began to buzz, he used his unoccupied hand to retrieve it.Ā
āPriceā
He looked to you and slowly began to rise, being as quiet as possible, kissing your hand and gently resting it on your stomach he made his way into the hall to answer the call.
āWhat do you have?ā His voice was stern as he spoke, silent to hear any information after he had asked.Ā
āWell we went back to the neighborhood and found that the neighbors have cameras installed on their doorbells. We were able to see when the attack happened, and we think we know whoās done it as well.āĀ
āThe attack, was this more than one person?āĀ
āNot that we know of yet, just one made their way into the home. Faking as a inspector of some kind, we canāt see the trucks logo. Y/N opened the door to greet them, and then tried to close it but theyā¦they made their way inside.ā A pause caught in Simons throat thinking again of how small you were, his anger rising.Ā
āThank you. Tell me when you have anything else.ā
āWill do.āĀ
As he hung up the phone and made his way back into the room, you stirred slightly. He quickened his pace to be back at your side again pushing your stray hair strands from your face. You drifted back to sleep as he resumed his position in the chair.Ā
He began to think over what Price had said and the details that he could use to his advantage. He thought to you as well, how you must have been so afraid. SO afraid to of being alone and the pain that ensued would surely leave you scarred. He thought for another hour or so, taking a water when the nurse offered it still refusing to leave the room.Ā
You spoke out then to him, the first time he didnāt really understand what you had said, and asked you to repeat.
āI knew you...āĀ
āWhat...Dove do you need something?ā he whispered with his low voice, trying to not startle you if you were still sleeping.
Your eyes slowly opened as you reached this time to cover his hand. You cleared your dry throat as you spoke again, this time more clearly.
āI knew to call you.ā A smile started over your face as Simon patted your hand assuming the pain medication was talking.
āWhat do you mean lovie?ā He grinned back to you, his eyes never loosing track of yours.Ā
You opened your eyes more fully this time, now staring at him. Again the prickle of tears began to sting.Ā
āI knew that you would be there faster than an ambulanceā¦ I knew you would get to me first.āĀ
He stared to you for another moment before allowing his head to fall to the floor. He was feeling his own eyes begin to sting, for he didnāt agree. He should have been the one to take it, he should be the one recovering, he should have never left, or he should have taken you with him in the least.Ā
He looked back up to you and instead pushed the thoughts out of his mind, standing to plant a kiss on your forehead. Your eyes slowly began to close again as he whispered to you,
āAlways.ā
Hours passed as the night progressed, Simon now letting his own eyes close but never succumbing to sleep.Ā
Nurses came in and out to check your vitals throughout the evening, eventually the doctor came in and asked to discuss the surgery and the aftercare. You sat a little higher in the bed, wincing as you did so. Simon pushed himself out of his chair to help sit you up properly, being soft with every movement. Once you both had gotten situated, the doctor went over the procedure.Ā
You noticed that as the doctor went on, Simons knee only bounced harder, his hands becoming more sweaty as he wiped them on his pants. He would look over to you and smile, although you could tell it pained him to see you hurting. The doctor finished talking over the surgery and explained that a nurse would be by to check the dressings. Before leaving he pulled Simon into the hallway and gave him more specifications on taking care of you when you returned home, along with some paperwork. He listened very closely, intent on helping you recover as best he could. He shook the doctors hand as he began to leave, but the doctor didnāt let go entirely-looking to Simon.
āShe is very lucky to have you, thereās no telling if she would have made it had you not gotten her here.āĀ
He felt a lump in his throat as he again thanked the doctor and made his way back into your room. A nurse came in not to long afterwards and asked if youād like to be alone for the dressing change. You told her that you wanted Simon to stay so long as he wanted to, looking over to Simon who gave a small nod of approval.
You see his jaw clench as she slowly pulled down the cover to see your wrapping, he hated himself for not being the one to take the blow. He took your hand in his as she began to undo your dressing, and when she had gotten it entirely off Simon had gone ridged in his chair. The nurse asked if he was alright before moving on and showing Simon how to care for her wound. He watched her very closely, at one point staring her down when she made you groan out. She completed the changing process and Simon was confident he was capable of treating it from home, where he wished to be.Ā
He thought of the scene again that he walked into, remembering that the house had been left like that- and he didnāt want you to go back to see the mess. He watched over your face as you fell again into a sleep, taking the time to notice how delicate your hand was in his.Ā Ā
You awoke again a few hours later to Simon watching something on the small TV, the sound muted. He heard you stir and turned his attention to you seeing that you were awake, and asked if you were alright.Ā Ā You confirmed that you were okay before Simon pondered over the events. He didnāt want to ask you to retell one of the worst moments of your life but felt it would be better him asking than an officer. Food is sent out to the rooms, as Simon sat by watching you slowly eat. Knowing you were safe allowed more room for anger to take hold in his mind, feeling a rage that burned like fire. He wanted so badly to get his hands on whoever had done this to you. He knew that asking you questions would feel horrible, asking you to recreate the moments that had caused you so much pain, but knew that you would have important information that he needed to find the monster.
You sat up fully now and looked at Simon, he was very focused on his thoughts. You run your hand over his arm that was resting on the chair, getting him to look at you with a smile. You take a sip of water to clear your throat as you speak to him.
āI didnāt know what to do, Simon.ā His brows furrowed and his grip around your hand intensified.Ā
āI know. You shouldnāt ever have to prepare for something like this...ā His voice getting more broken as he continued to speak, looking to you tears begin to form in his eyes.Ā
āAnd Iām sorry that I wasnāt there.ā He looked to you like you had never seen him before. He was speaking words he didnāt want to be true and it pained him to see you in such a state. You took the time now to cut him off before his mind could get to him any further.Ā
āSimon you were. You got me out of there and are the reason I am able to sit here and talk with you now.ā His head fell to the floor, the thought of you not making it scared him even when you were here in front of him, quite alive. You pulled his head to look at you, tears forming in your own eyes as you went on.
āThank you, Simon. Thank you for getting to me.ā It took no more than a few seconds for Simon to be over you, hugging you as lightly as he could without hurting you. His warm lips kissed your forehead for longer than necessary as he pulled back just enough to see your face. The rage in him now was boiling over the edge, he would find whoever did this, and they would pay. He tried to be as patient as possible when speaking to you over the events, he didnāt want to make you feel any pressure or panic when talking to him.
āI know it may be hard, but do you think you could try and tell me aboutā¦what happened?ā He felt the room get colder and your hand stiffen in his. He searched your face for any clue to what you were thinking.Ā
āIā¦ā The thoughts played over in your mind going far to quickly to understand them individually. You knew that Simon would do anything and everything to avenge your pains, looking down to your bandaged abdomen, he wouldnāt stop until they had been found.Ā
āI can try.ā You smiled up to him slowly as he took in a breath and nodded.
Ā Where were you going to begin?Ā

*The start of the 22!23! Grid!AU !
*requests and questions are open so don't be shy ! āØ
2022!F1 grid X female!driver!reader
Sebastian vettel , Daniel Ricciardo, Lewis Hamilton X female!driver!reader.
Words count : around 1.4k
Warnings : grammar, cursing,sad girl hours, mercedes slander(not really), McLaren, I'm missing up the timeline but it's fun , not proof read nor edited .
leaving the media pen brought y/n relief as she's finally able to stretch her legs and get some fresh air away from the bustling reporters asking the same questions over and over again and buzzing teams finishing interviews and packaging garages after the race .
She avoided her team's garage like a plague , having to witness as the engineers pushed her car back in was more than too much for her to handle , so she opted for walking around trying to clear her mind before it goes on to a spiral.
Spotting Sebastian's green team shirt alongside Lewis and chatting among themselves down the pit wall she made a beeline for them . "Hello gentlemen . seb, Lewie " she greats them cheerfully as she gave each one a hug as they congratulate her before settling back beside Seb as he nudged her shoulder teasing " p3 , not so bad huh? " causing her to smile bashfully at him , Lewis pumped his fist with her's " great driving out there " , "thank you " she said with a beaming smile " yeah those last 3 lap were from hell , Sainz almost got my ass " both looked amused at her ranting post race as she always dragged them to listen , not like they were complaining as they adored how she went on giving them her full review with them giving her input here and there .
after a while of catching up they noticed how uncharacteristically quite she got while looking around searching for something or rather someone but before they could ask she perked up as Danny barged over lifting her in a tight hug shaking her around while exclaiming loudly "demon spawn!" And she returned the hug letting out a loud "Ricky Martin!" The other just stood there used to their antics same as everyone around them as they love to tease (bully) eachother around the paddock .
She turned to Danny giving him a wide grin" you're right on time , I was about to send out searching party " he nudged her shoulder " awww , I didn't know you'd miss my charming personality and handsome face that much " she scoffed at him " as if " he stepped back hand on his heart dramatically whining " you've wounded my delicate heart !" That got him a kick in the shin from her before she grinned back at him " stop with you theatrics , I have a great idea , we should start our own F1 support group !" mildly amused he threw her a wide grin " I'm all in baby , but what for?" So she looked at the other two drivers maintaining her wide grin as she lowered her voice to avoid any preying ears "well , mainly for you , Mick and Seb , but I'll be needing it too . my lovely team pulled a McLaren because guess who's mercedes dropping during the summer break ? , to give you a hint it's not Lewis" .
The three of them stood still staring at her as if she'd grown a second head , Danny was the first to snap out laughing "nice one mate ! That Almost got me" after a moment of silence Sebastian signals to him and he immediately reached to cover her ears as he cursed loudly "that's fucking bullshit , why the fuck would they ?" As she just stood there waiting for him to finish , Lewis just stared at her bewildered " what do you mean they are dropping you ? They can't do that , you're competing for the championship in that tin can excuse of a car incase they've forgotten about the standings ! Hell ! We both got a contract till 24 _ 25 they can't just drop it".
she just shrugged " well , they sure can and already did so ....." Danny's eyes couldn't get wider "what?!" So she gave them a nonchalant hand wave "starting from tonight I'm officially an unemployed F1 driver , they bought my contract and sent me out the door" Lewis interrupted " but Toto...." Only for her to shake her head " he sat me down along with the team management , PR and legal team which explains why they were lurking around lately , and both my lawyer and Manager out of nowhere and went on about the team and the drivers , how the last two years were great for the team bonding building a solid foundation and all of the usual pe-race briefing no big deal right ? , He went on talking about my contract which was odd because I knew wouldn't be up till 24 at least with great possiblity of extension , and how I have a promising future in the sport but not with them and I honestly just zoned out after that ,up until they gave me an offer out of of guilt or pity I guess to drive for Williams alongside Albon " that got Danny's attention "what about Russell?" So she whispered to him to subtly hold both Lewis and seb back as they both were close to marching over mercedes demanding answers after her declaring " they finalized singing him today for the next three seasons so starting from SPA he'll be driving full time for mercedes , that's net even the worst part , apparently they were discussing the position since the beginning of the previous season but they wanted me out with the least PR damages so now is the best chance to do so after most teams got their seats confirmed for next season so here I am " .
"Wait so you're telling me that everyone knew except us ? " she shrugged "pretty much, yeah " , "bono?" , " He knew" , " sussie?" , "Nodding "yup" , "James?" , "Uhuh , he was all in for the change" , "fucking hell!", "Exactly" she shrugged " they even decided they won't even announce any of it till Spa " . Daniel whistled in astonishment " wait until Nando hear about this " causing them to grimace only thinking what he'd possibly do " oh he already know ! Found him this morning cornering Toto in the garage , don't know what he said but by the time I got him he was done , talking about too many witnesses " , that got seb to realize as he voiced out concerned " that's why he seemed so cryptic , well more than usual, he asked me to get ready to head out to Brackley headquarters for some urgent business had to talk him out of it " she snorted" Don't be so sure , He asked me to join too right before quali so I reckon that talk didn't do much , Kimi is in it too so .... Yeah ".
Silence overtook them as their somber faces took her demeanor in , her now fidgeting fingers , tense shoulders , and strained smile , seb stepped up giving her a tight hug whispering " are you okay?" And she reciprocated with a strained voice " yeah , it's just didn't hit me yet so I would give it two to three days to fully set in but right now, everything is shitty and I want to cry but I'm too angry to cry so now I'm hungry , I want ice cream ". That earned her a sympathetic smile from Lewis as he pulled her next " I known darling , let's grab our things and I promise you we'll get you as much of ice cream as you want okay? ", " Okay , but I'm not going there , I can't , they're taking down my name and number off of everything" she let out with a small voice as he sighed heavily "already!? They couldn't wait?" Shaking his head while heading up to their drivers rooms .
Danny put his arm around her shoulders swaying them as he reminded " it might be so shitty and as bad as it seems , but we've got you okay? You'll find us there whenever you need us , you're stuck with us for good , and if you wanna burn down you know what , you know where ........." Seb snapped. " no one is burning anything!" Only for him to carry on pretending to whisper " we won't tell him " causing her to let a loud giggles at how serious Daniel was and how seb was trying to tell him off of it ." Just know you won't be alone in this".

dick grayson instagram hcs
basics
we are pretending dick is not a cop in this because i said so!
he's a professional model but also does perform at a local circus as a special guest
he's not actually going to the olympics (yet) but the american team has been trying to contact him for the better part of the decade so maybe you can convince him to go
he's kind of like one of your friends who you think is chill and normal but then you go to their ig and you find out they're something of a local celebrity?
everybody in gotham already knew him as bruce wayne's son but also he went semi viral on tiktok and got a bunch of new fans (and some edits) out of it
he used to have a less serious pfp but his management convinced him to use this one instead
followers + following
obviously you're there
as well as his friends and family
he manages to get away with following the superheroes since i mean, basically everybody else does as well
also a lot of industry people that he meets, both for modeling and gymnastics/trapeze
highlights
he is an abuser of the story function
will spend any opportunity to brag about his pretty girlfriend and all of the dates and trips you guys go on
he is weirdly good at taking photos, will give you tips on how to pose to get your best angles
also he has a lot of fans so he likes to post a photo of you every once in a while to remind everyone that he's happily taken
will also repost your work related stuff to be like hey look at how cool my gf is at her job!
dude has a million highlights that he updates for the fashion weeks each year
a lot of photos of his looks, him meeting with certain designers, it's mostly his team who posts this
same thing with his shows in the sense that it's usually other people (including you) taking photos of him while he's performing
but this is a more personal venture of his so he asks everyone to send him the pics and he decides which ones to post
will also repost stories from fans who came to the show!
oooh this man posts the most jaw dropping photos of himself
he will have just woken up and post a photo that makes you think it's so unfair how perfect somebody can be
he just likes to post when he feels good about himself and i support!
haley and (i did not come up with a name for your guys' cat so you guys can have fun with that!) also have their own dedicated highlight
it is exactly as cute and wholesome as you would think it is
there are even more highlights if you keep on scrolling. he has highlights for each year's fashion weeks, as mentioned, as well as trips you guys have been on (the most recent is a trip to greece and italy!)
posts
once again he's one of those infuriating sort of famous people who are like fine as hell but they post just enough cute and relatable content that he actually seems like a real and very nice guy (fun fact, he is!)
you can tell immediately when he's been on a trip because he'll have at least 3 posts up and they're all of the same place
you guys are like the photo taking couple
if you weren't good at taking pics before you started dating, his skills definitely rub off on you
he'll do the thing where he gets you to pose for him so he can take a photo of you and then you take the same style of photo for him
it's disgusting you guys have matching photos on your feeds of each other
if it wasn't already common knowledge that you guys are dating, i can imagine the conspiracy theory videos being like guys they were in the same place? at the same time? and they took the same type of pics? i think they're dating
he loves cooking with you (while i personally think it would be really funny if he can't cook, in some of the comics they do mention that he can cook, but either way he enjoys cooking with you)
you guys are like the parent friends who host dinner at their place and there's usually a theme surrounding seasonal ingredients and everything's plated really well
you probably watch cooking shows together and are now you can't serve a dish without some microgreens or sliced radish on top or something
also yes he did plan the picnic and he's quite proud of it
he watched all of those charcuterie board hacks to make the flowers and fancy cheese arrangements
and there were chocolate dipped strawberries, champagne with glasses, and freshly baked cookies (alfred might have helped with that one)
also yes he does wear glasses!!!! only at home when he's reading or staring at a screen too long. his prescription's not that bad

part one ,, last part
iām still stuck on Sight part 4 but heyyy i got kinda inspired to make this pt 2.
will post part 3 hopefully before the year ends lol.
not edited/written at 3am
8:50 PM
suna watches as osamu guides you out of the restaurant with a hand on your lower back. he hears atsumu whistle across him. āi swear to god, if my idiot of a brother wonāt make a move on y/n, i will.ā
he resists shaking his head, knowing that atsumu already has eyes on someone else, but he doesnāt bring it up. instead, his brows furrow, concern about you starting to cloud his mind.
heās always been observant of you. it was only after he began dating hani that he started to spend less time looking at you. that was a few months ago and yet, he wonders why he wasnāt able to tell that you were feeling unwell.
āare you okay, love?ā hani asks beside him, breaking him out of his reverie.
āyeahā¦ā
something passes along her face but heās not able to catch it and what it can mean. instead, hani gives his hand a squeeze. he knows itās meant to be reassuring but to suna, it feels as if heās being held back from running towards something that he has always wanted.
QUESTIONS
suna always looked forward to practice and to say itās purely because of volleyball would be a lie. sure, he loved the sport, but his excitement towards practice was amplified by something else ā the thought of seeing you.
he wasnāt sure when he began to develop feelings for you that crossed the boundaries of platonic friendship. maybe itās the way that whenever you would pass by their room, youād look through the window and give him your sweet smile. maybe itās the way you would always scold the twins during lunch whenever they get engrossed in their banter rather than eating. maybe itās the way you would tie up your hair in a messy ponytail during practice, hands busy scribbling down notes on your managerās pad.
suna wasnāt sure but by the beginning of sophomore year, he knew in his heart that he liked you.
on that particular day, you arrived at the gym a few minutes late and he was surprised to see that you werenāt alone. another girl was with you. as you introduced to the team that sheās your friend from student council, he could feel her curious eyes on him.
hani nakamura was her name, you said.
that day after practice, he noticed you and hani pass by the convenience store where he and the twins stopped by at. he immediately but subtly went ahead outside, only to see a glimpse of you blushing as you talked to hani.
he couldnāt help but think that the two of you were probably talking about boys, hence your blush. isnāt that what girls do? that night, when he got home, suna began playing scenarios in his head on how best to confess to you.
8:55
āiām tired,ā hani says softly as she rests her head on his shoulders. it snaps suna out of his thoughts, a reminder that heās already dating the girl beside him, who, unlike you, will never play with his feelings.
he strokes her hair gently. āshould we go?ā
her response is a pout and a cutely-said āyes please.ā
around him, his teammates fake barfing. āyou two lovebirds are so cheesy! get out of here!ā
suna is unable to resist his smirk as he shakes his head. āweāll go ahead. yāall better also leave soon before you get wasted.ā to atsumu he says, āexcept you, idiot, since youāre already wasted.ā
hani giggles beside him as she links her arm with his. they both walk towards the parking lot, hani excitedly talking about everyoneās reactions when they told them about their relationship.
once they reach his car, hani murmurs, āoh noā¦ā
āwhat?ā sunaās instantly alert, āwhatās the matter?ā
hani looks at him sheepishly as she says, āi need to run to the restroom. sorry, love. be right back!ā
suna exhales in relief and smiles. āokay. be careful. iāll start heating up the car.ā he waits for her to disappear from his view before he turns towards his car but before he could open the door, something catches his eyes.
itās you inside osamuās car, legs bent towards your chest, body shaking. and though he canāt hear it, he knows youāre crying.
he feels a little pain by his chest as he resists the urge to run to you, to comfort you and ask whatās wrong and to just make sure that youāll be okay.
instead, he shakes his head and refocuses on his car but not after mumbling to himself, āstupid osamu and his non-tinted windows.ā
EXPECTATIONS
it felt as if the universe was against sunaās plan of confessing his feelings to you. whenever he tried to get you alone after practice, something comes up and then either you or he would need to go ahead.
it was beginning to frustrate him. it didnāt help that on your non-busy days, your friend, hani, was always tagging along. after the first time, haniās visits during their practice frequented and it soon became apparent to suna how close the two of you had become.
an idea suddenly came to suna.
since hani was close to you and it seemed as if she would never leave your side, what if he befriended her? maybe she could even give insights on and help with his confession.
he didnāt let the thought sit too long in his head; by the next time hani accompanied you to practice, suna started a random conversation. this would soon mark the beginning of their friendship.
suna admittedly only talked to hani in hopes of getting help confessing to you but what he didnāt expect was for him to actually get along well with her. once their friendship had reached a comfortable level, he finally decided to open up to her.
what he didnāt expect was the words that would leave haniās mouth. āoh, suna-senpai, are you sure? iām not sure if itās my place to say, butā¦ā
she was looking at him with sympathetic eyes, making suna feel foolish as he replayed what he had shared ā about his changing feelings at the beginning of the school year, about the hints youāve been dropping to him for the past months.
he awkwardly scratched at his nape. āwell?ā
hani bit her lip. āy/n-senpai actually likes someone in the volleyball team. youāre actually very close to him, maybe thatās why she was being too close to you as wellā¦ā
the end of her sentence was blurry to suna as he watched across the court how you playfully interacted with osamu.
sunaās eyes hardened as he swallowed the lump in his throat. āi see.ā
11:42
suna couldnāt fall asleep. itās been a few hours since he dropped hani off at their house but heās still wide awake, his eyes fixed on the dull ceiling of his room.
thoughts of you swarm his mind.
after that conversation with hani many months ago, his treatment towards you never changed. he was mad at first but then realized that what you did to him had the same intention as why he even approached hani in rhe first place; the stark difference being he didnāt intend to toy with the girlās heart.
nonetheless, he let the matter go. you were all still young and stupid anyway, and at the same time, he got too pre-occupied with his budding relationship with hani.
still, it bothered him. the sight of you sobbing in osamuās car wouldnāt leave his mind. what could have happened to make you have a breakdown like that?
he contemplated on sending you or osamu a message just for his peace of mind and before he can decide who to text, his phone rings.
his eyes widened once he saw your contact id. he stared at it for a few more seconds before swiping right.
āy/n?ā
āā¦ hey, suna. i didnāt think youād pick up.ā
he hated how you sound stuffy but chose not to comment on it. āwellā¦ whatās up?ā
a barely-concealed sniffle. āc-can we talk?ā
āokay, sure. go ahead.ā
āno, i mean in person. the 12th convenience store?ā
he smiled at the mention of the place. āokay. see you in a few.ā
āsee you.ā
once you hang up, suna dropped his phone on the bed and immediately went to get his favorite hoodie.
the same hoodie that youāve been asking for him to give to you ever since he let you borrow it on one rainy afternoon.

The Great Longbottom Bully Chronicles: Malfoy edition
Draco is often described in fics as having been Neville's worst bully but is that actually backed by canon ? This intrepid reporter scoured the books for any and all interactions between the two; the results?
See for yourself:
section A: active bullying
Philosopher's Stone is The Book when it comes to any and all Malfoy-based mistreatments of Neville. In PS we have the following interactions:
1)
Draco is a maladjusted little gremlin who doesn't know how to show curiosity for Neville's remembrall in a healthy manner; I give this a 3/10 on the bully scale
2)
Draco straight up curses Neville (the curse itself is treated as funny, Evil Draco is the evil problem), 8/10
same scene, apparently Draco stopped for a chat amidst all the leg locking; middling attempt, 6/10
3)
Draco delivers a group insult at Harry's second match and includes a Neville section, he did not expect any backtalk; 7/10
4)
off-screen forbidden forest hijinks. Harry considers it a joke, does Draco? Does Neville? not enough info; 5/10
BONUS ROUND
Lastly, I'm going to add this conversation from ootp, :
Draco here is indulging in his favorite pastime, Harry-baiting, and Neville is just a bystander. Draco does not seem to know about Neville's parents and he wasn't the intended target but I give this 10/10 because of the psychic damage it causes.
These are actually all the interactions Neville and Draco have in canon: a whole bunch in book 1 and then nothing. This intrigued me so I went looking for:
section B: Draco talking about Neville (but not to him)
1)
This takes place in book 1, during the remembrall scene. Draco is putting on a performance for his fellow Slytherins but actually concentrates very little on Neville's incident, this is literally all he says about him
2)
This takes place in Half-blood Prince, during the compartment scene (wherein Harry is a nosey nancy). This is the only time Draco talks about Neville with no Gryffindors in sight. He is not performing for an audience, merely having a routine discussion with his friends; this gives us the clearest picture of his actual attitude towards Neville (in one word: dismissive). Neville is mentioned in passing and immediately forgotten.
section B (the other way): Neville talking about Draco
1)
This is from book 5. Draco claimed to know a NEWT examiner, Neville shares what he knows. Not even a direct mention.
2)
This is from book 6, Neville saw Malfoy go by. Riveting.
Again, I expected more. Finally, I checked the text for any neutral interactions between the two that may have happened offscreen, as in: both Draco and Neville were in the same location, information was shared between the two (or, more likely, shared by one of them with a third party and then overheard by the other) and no one ended up maimed or otherwise negatively impacted. This brings us to:
section C: ordinary conversations
1)
Again from book 1. Neville finds out about Norbert and tries to help, no known reaction from Draco
2)
From book 3. Draco was getting ready for his yearly train visit to Harry on the way to Hogwarts and somehow ended up in the general vicinity of Neville.
section D: conclusion
While my first instinct was to assume that the instances of bullying from book 1 would repeat themselves during the following years, it appears that Draco and Neville barely interact with each other from the ages of 12 onwards.
Crabbe and Goyle are actually shown to have a more consistently antagonistic relationship with Neville than Draco does: it's them who Neville ends up fighting in book 1 (during Harry's second quidditch match), it's them who laugh when Snape admonishes him in potions in book 3 (immediately post Buckbeak, Draco is present and does not react to Neville) and finally, it's Crabbe who straight up chokes him in book 5 (in the DA vs inquisitorial squad kerfuffle in Umbridge's office).
One can perhaps assume that Draco's bullying continues as the years go on but goes unnoticed by Harry (our POV in the books) but I don't see this happening for one reason and one reason only: this is not what we observe from Neville's interactions with his actual greatest bully: Snape.
The narrative often makes space for Snape's remarks towards Neville (and their effect on him) regardless of plot relevance and they only increase in frequency as the books progress, so much so that in book 3 he is presented as Neville's greatest fear (by way of boggart).
The bullying somewhat plateaus around book 4 (where we can start seeing a shift in how jkr portrays both of them) and Snape and Neville eventually stop interacting completely after book 5, yet we are still presented with a number of interactions between the two that easily dwarfs Draco and Neville's. If Draco was actually a constant negative presence in Neville's life I'd expect to see a similar pattern and yet there is none.
tldr: Neville and Draco have actually very little to do with each other.
As a little treat, here's the only time Lucius Malfoy talks to Neville
Dude didn't have to roast him so hard, but he did.

Hi, I don't know how to write this differently... I'm kinda, little bit, very very worried š
I don't want to make you feel obligated to answer this, with the electric outages and everything, but please just a little update if you're ok š©· RusĆ”ci jsou kundy, pÅeji ti hodnÄ sil šš srdeÄnĆ© pozdravy z Äeska (Russians are cunts, I wish you strength, ŃŠµŠæŠ»ŠøŠ¹ ŠæŃŠøŠ²ŃŃ Š· Š§ŠµŃ
ŃŃ*)
*I could only think of best wishes in English, which is not the same, so I hope google translated it with the same warm sentiment š
Ask from @princessgotham21: Hi Kat, we've not heard from you in a while so I hope you're safe and okay. I don't care about updates, I just genuinely want to know your wellbeing. Sending prayers and love š¤
Ask from @seiji-amasawa: Iāve been following your stories for years now, and with news headlines about whatās going on in Ukraine has me really nervous for your well being. I hope you and your loved ones are doing well. Youāre in my thoughts <3
Ask from @disappearinghills: You havenāt posted in a week, I hope youāre okay loveā¤ļø
-----
Hi! I'm finally home and with a steady connection - in fact, while I was gone, my Dad did some techno-magic, so now I'll have the Internet even when there is no power! Seeing all these asks made me so warm and happy, and cared for. Thank you all so much! I really didn't expect the connection to be this bad in the mountains. That place had WiFi, both of my cell operators were accessible, and yet nothing connected properly 99% of time. Not sure how it works. On the other hand, I took a really good rest from the war-related news, air raids, and other stuff. I heard just one explosion at a distance in over 2 weeks.
@jebemtimater7890, ah, I really appreciate your sentiment <3 ŠŃŠ¶Šµ Š“ŃŠŗŃŃ Š·Š° ŃŠ°ŠŗŃ ŃŃŠ“Š¾Š²Ń ŃŠ»Š¾Š²Š°! It always warms me so much to know that so many people from different countries support Ukraine. Maybe it's the result of my vacation, but I started to feel a little more optimistic about the war than I have in over a year. Not sure it will last long, but it's such a relief to feel like this for now.
I went to the mountains with my Mom, and the place we were staying at had the loveliest cat who instantly realized I'll be more than happy to let her share my bed :D It was very hot for one week, and then it rained non-stop for the next one, so we got all kinds of experiences.
I'll miss the peace and quiet of that place, but being home is also good! I missed my set of silly pets, half of whom didn't immediately recognize me and tried to flee before figuring out who I am :D
The first part of a series of ATLWETD updates will be up in a few hours. I'm doing the last quick read - it probably isn't necessary, I've edited it already, but I can't help it, I always feel like I'll catch some more mistakes/unfortunate turns of phrases.

Agatha All Along Tarot Time! Episode 4 - If I Can't Reach You, Let My Song Teach You
Okay so we got a new one; appropriately enough the Three of Swords, triggered while they were all dealing with Teen's injury/near death. I say appropriately, because traditionally Swords is the suit associated with fire, so it makes sense that it shows up as a result of The Protection Witch/Fire's Trial on the Witch's Road. (EDIT; SO MANY LIES. Wands is fire, Swords is air. Sorry folks, don't write posts at 3am without editting)
Now onto the specifics. As with my last tarot post, I'm mostly in it as a hobby, so my interpretations may not be perfect.
Sword cards are usually pretty intense, and the Three of Swords is no exception. It centers around grief, heartbreak, sorrow, emotional pain; all things Agatha is feeling as a result of almost losing Teen, who she all but says she thinks is her son (is he? absolutely not, but I love that she thinks he could be). It tends to refer to sudden grief - and given how fast Teen went down, their sorrow would feel very unexpected and sudden indeed. Three of Swords suggests that the thing needed is a good cry (or a hug from ex-girlfriend who's the embodiment of Death), but that one shouldn't get lost in it or wallow for too long when there's more going on (like the rest of the road). First glance, it's easy to keep the association simple; Teen's dying, and they (mostly Agatha) are sad about it.
But there's a reason it's done here, and not during, say... Sharon's death. And that has to do with the Reverse meaning, which is complicating things for Agatha. Heartbreak is still a large component of Three of Swords Reversed, but instead of current, immediate pain, it talks about older hurts; the end of a relationship (like Agatha and Rio), a loss that hasn't been gotten over (like Agatha with her son). Because Agatha at this point thinks Teen is likely her lost son, seeing him dying triggered ALL the pain both old and new, and it's like the Three of Swords smacked her in the face.
The Reversed Three of Swords is ultimately hopeful though - it suggests a path of healing, forgiveness, and a release of pain tied to those old hurts. I kind of hope that that's foreshadowing for what we'll see with Agatha and the rest of the coven. The Road giving them the chance to heal, maybe.
We're already seeing that a little with Alice, who definitely has strong ties to the card because of the trauma caused by her mother's death. By the end of the episode, she's started to come to terms with what happened and the curse that haunted her family for so long. Honestly Three of Swords could just be the thesis statement of the entire episode; the only reason I focus more on how it ties to Agatha is because Teen's predicament (and Agatha's reaction to it) was the clear trigger.

Mobs and Stalkers Season 4, Episode 3
šĀ Call of Cthulhu: Haunted Hijinx MasterpostĀ š Call of Cthulhu Season Four Masterpost (Coming Soon)
Warning:Ā This campaign is an edited version ofĀ aĀ Call of CthulhuĀ scenario from the Tales of the Crescent City book. While a lot has been changed, there ISĀ spoilersĀ for it throughout these posts.
Who is this guy and why is he following us? Why are we following him?? Why are we interreacting with mobs again??? How does this keep happening to us?????

IT IS THE NEXT MORNING. EVERYONE WAKES UP AND NOBODY (who slept over at JDS) IS MISSING, OR DEAD.
THATāS GREAT.
Bendy even slept on top of Jack during their slumber party, trying to give the same comfort as an Beans might give. It mightāve been weird otherwise, but after all the hectic nonsense going on and not being able to feel safe going home, in this case it was welcome.
Joey slept on his research notes.Ā
But it is a work day (at least itās friday,,,) so the cots are shuffled away before people start coming in and questioning the group about the spontaneous night in. And foreseeing this might be a future issue if stuff goes haywire and they have to hide out at JDS more, Joey takes the holiday opportunity to get everyone out of the office for a while.Ā Enjoy New Years Eve off, go party! Also New Years, to recover from the party. And alsoā¦ the day AFTER New Years, to do all the things you meant to do on New Years but you were recovering from the party!! Look how nice Joey Drew is, giving so many thoughtful days off. Nobody come back until Thursday or else.
While everyone else is getting some work done, Joey checks in on Norman who didnāt even call in. He seems fine, but heās still adamant about staying at home. Okay you do you.
(Joey sends Susie to hang out with Norman, as his inside woman and also because the Norman vs. Susie perception of the world will be nice when more things just. C h a n g e.)
The team has two big leads for trying to find Alan Leroy: Chandler Kreel and Amanda Cornish. Both of them are apparently good friends with him, and with addresses in hand, they split up to try and track down the danged clarinetist that they probably need to get to.
Jack and Sammy drive downtown to a bunch of law offices with apartments above, searching for Amanda. Theyāre able to get to her door pretty easily, but Amanda isnāt the one who answers. Her sister does! Luckily Jackās there to run introductions because otherwise Samās scowling face probably would have just been turned away at that point. Sitting in the waiting room, Amanda soon joins them and admits that the last time she saw Alan was at a christmas party they went toā¦ but seems to be kind of standoffish about any other information.
After some more charming by Jack, itās revealed that she thinks he might be in trouble with the mob, and uh, Sammyā¦ looking the way he doesā¦ā¦. Maybe made her think they were the mob?? But with confirmation that, no, they super arenāt the mob and in fact are trying to find Alan before he possibly gets in trouble with a mob or two, sheās a bit more relaxed. Something weird is happening, because Alan really doesnāt seem like the type to be in trouble with the mob. And the last weird thing she remembers happening with Alan wasā¦ well, he got freaked out over some book she gave him for the holidays!
Whatās so scary about a book? It was a pretty interesting read, here sheāll go grab it for ya!!!
Sammy is looking away Sammy is looking away Sammy refuses to look in any direction near Amanda as she, indeed, brings out a little black book with the Yellow Sign on it.Ā
Jack immediately feels it wiggle into his head. But at least heās able to wrap up the conversation with her in aā¦ semi-normal manner? While Sammyās eyes, darting anywhere else, find a photo on the mantelpiece that features Alan Leroy and friends, hanging out at a party scrawled with the note: Skinner Place, May, 1934ā¦ and Sammy is CERTAIN he recognises the man.
Oddly, his clarinet in the photo is missing one of the extensions he'd expect for a professional player...ā¦ā¦.
Joey and Henry take the brown Mercedes to check out Chandler Kreel, who luckily lives in a nice part of the city that feels like a Mercedes might be somewhatā¦ lessā¦ easily noticeable.Ā
He answers the door but seems extremely nervous, like Amanda was. Leroy is great! So good at clarinet you wouldnāt even know he was down a finger!! Also totally a swell guy who shouldnāt be in any trouble so why are you heeerree??Ā
Through Joeyās uh, storytelling skills, and Henry's good calming daditude, they get the idea heās a loyal friend who wants to make sure heās helping his buddy and not handing over information to the mob or any other parties that might be after Alanā¦ Which means, he probably has information on where Alan is. Since itād be suspicious to just plain ask, Joey goes the heartfelt āplease reach out to us weāre here to help,ā direction and hands off contact information.Ā
While returning to the car, Henry and Joey find someone oogling over itā¦ and this time itās not some girl trying to declare herself Henryās lifelong love, but the pale-faced man in a black suit thatās been seen everywhere recently. Their conversation is short, as the man mentions looking for a āwandering playerā that needs to be returned to his place, and he walks off after some vague threats about what happens if you are in his way. Or if you lie to him, donāt do that either.
His mask-like face doesnāt move while communicating any of this.
Henry tells Joey once theyāre alone that he thinks that guy is Fowler. He has the same nervous fidget Fowler used toā¦
Jack and Sammy go to stop by Normanās on the way back, and find thatā¦ his place is apparently a block down from where it used to be!!Ā
GREAT!!!!
When he answers the door and is immediately and frantically questioned about this, he takes a look around and confirms, shrugging and simply stating āit seems like Iāve moved.āĀ
He invites them in for a housewarming party.
Susie and Norman have been playing cards. Thereās no updates on Avadon. Jack and Sammy update them about the few tidbits of information theyāve found, and Norman finds a piece of junk mail to hand off to Jack before they head out. Sinceā¦ the address on there seems to have changed too, so if Norman ends up moving again, wellā¦ theyāll know where he is!
The four of them meet back up at JDS to exchange information about Alan Leroy, and also eject the yellow sign from Jackās head asap. Sammy's still worked up about this clarinetist's missing E flat extension, but Joey dismisses this as old news -- obviously; he's missing a finger. Keep up, Sammy. Peter has kind of also met back up with them, leaving a message on Joeyās phone talking about sightings of the masked man going through some magic shops in the city. And the fact that despite all his digging, he really canāt find anything about where this Leroy guy came fromā¦
Joey tries to call Peter back by memory and it doesnāt work. Weāre not going to talk about the fact that Joey has Peterās number memorized. Pulling out his phone book, indeed, Peterās number on paper has changed and that one DOES work.Ā
Before they get much of a conversation going at all, Joey hangs up on Peter to try something. Instead of dialing a number in, or looking one upā¦ he just wills himself to dial a number in to call Alan Leroy.
It kiiiindaaa works.
Joey manages to call Alan Leroyās phone, but the same servant picks up and insists that Alan hasnāt returned home. Joey hangs up on him.Ā
Peter gets a call back. Okay so thereās those Magic Shops he wants to check out, and also he has a lead on the gangster guy who shot the gun during the charity event. To keep Peter from doing nonsense alone and probably being abducted to Carcosa, Jack and Joey decide to go with him to investigate magic shops, while Sammy and Henry uneasily go to the bar to find info on the gangster guy, once Sammy is reassured that this wonāt be like last time and all he has to do is eavesdrop. This surely will only go well.
At the bar, Henry casually brings up the charity dinner shooting while trying to fish for information, and maybe he talks a little too much, because suddenly all eyes are on him. What! Sammy wasnāt doing any talking so Henry was just trying toā¦ doā¦.what Joey would do? Henry trying to do what Joey would do has never gone wrong beforeā¦
Sammy and Henry are in a mob car, only kind of against their will. They are escorted to a restaurant, where they meet the extremely average looking Italian mob boss, Johnny Nero, who wants to know what they know about this pale masked man. At first it seems like theyāve made another great terrible get-yourselves-kidnapped-by-a-mob mistake, but the boss seems surprisingly rattled, and after some grilling from Sammy, Nero admits thatā¦ heās seen some stuff that shouldnāt beā¦
ā¦ and Sammy hits the nail on the head when he asks, have you seen the yĶelĶlĶow sigĢµn?
Henry steps in and decides to offer to help himā¦ to get him on our side, and understand that we are not a threat to him, weāre simply trying to remove the same thing from the city. After some pressure, Nero is convinced, and goes through the extremely normal process of Henry writing eldritch symbols with his own blood to remove the sign from him. After the nightmare has been yeeted from his brain, Nero turns out to be a wee bit nicer: he gives us all the info he has, but insists that if we find whatever the pallid mask guy is looking for, to give it to him so he can use it to get the guy gone.
And then he kicks them out without even offering them a ride back to their car at the bar.
Wrow.
What an extremely average super not classy even mob boss.Ā
Thatās gonna get you a terrible review on yellowp my dude.
Meanwhile, on the other side of town, itās time for
ā§ļ½„ļ¾: *ā§ļ½„ļ¾:*SHOPPINGā§ļ½„ļ¾: *ā§ļ½„ļ¾:*~~!!
The first store is called Cool Jewel Skull. It has cool jewels and skulls. Surely thatās exactly what it says in the book, because itās extremely not a legit shop, and Jack spends the entire walk to the next shop dunking on it to keep Joey's spirits up. They did find out that not just the Phantom but Leroy had been through it though!
The next stop is an apothecary, and it does seem a lot more actually occult stuff. The guy recognizes a photo of Leroy and confirms he came through looking for protective charms, but when he went to buy one, he dropped it upon touching it and immediately left?? Then the Pallid Mask guy came through laterā¦ Not much info on him, except that he was creepy, but we already knew that. The interesting thing is though, the charm that Leroy dropped? It has the same symbol on it that Henry uses to expel the yellow sign from peopleās heads. Soā¦ weird that he didnāt take it with himā¦. And seemed allergic to it as well.
The three leave and try to go to the last shop on the listā¦ but the address is missing from the paper now. Likeā¦ completely gone. Joey gets the great idea to try his āI'm going to will myself thereā trick and closes his eyes, imagining a route to this store heād never been to before, and giving Jack directions to drive there. Suddenly Jack slams on the brakes and manages to keep from completely smashing intoā¦ a man in a suitā¦ and a pale maskā¦. Thereās definitely a dent in the bumper now though, because Jack wasnāt that quick, and apparently a moving car is not more solid than this thing is.Ā
Joey immediately starts cursing him out, but he insists that Joey called him?? before going around to the side of the car and opening the back seat doorā¦ where Peter is sitting. Not having this AT ALL, Joey tries to beat him out of the car with his cane, only to be thrown back against the dashboard.Ā
With Jack frozen in terror and Peter having an oddly difficult time moving to even the other side of the car away from this pale jerk, Joey immediately decides he cAN AND WILL RIP THIS ASSHOLE OUT OF EXISTENCE.Ā
Andā¦ somehow, it works.
It sure tears something into him alright, and manages to boot him out of the car, giving enough time for Joey to demand Jack step on it. And Jack, panic stricken, somehow manages to follow the command and at least not run into anything else as they drive off into the night ā But just as heās hit the gas pedal, he does feel the cold of both glass shards and ā¦ something else, asĀ he gets touched by a hand smashing through the window in the last second.Ā
Luckily Jack bought the first car on the market in the US that had safety glass so heās not going to be fucked up much from this in the physical department, except for his wallet maybe.
Mentally though? Memories flood inā¦Ā
memories of a time he visited a dream with his eyes closed, and almost had his head removed.
After theyāre at a safe distance, a shaken Peter manages to pull the door closed.Ā
And thank them.

Hazbin Hotel - Rewatch Thoughts (Episode 1, Part 3)
I know Adam has his guitar and Alex Brightman voice, but is he an actual rockstar in Heaven?Ā Heās going on about his gig in his anecdote.Ā
They talked about how Lilith empowered demon-kind with her songs ā but how did Heaven get its groove then?
Iām so fascinated by this because Adam knows who Charlie is.Ā He knows sheās Luciferās daughter, which pretty much makes her Lilithās daughter (theories in the epilogue, theories in the epilogue) which means that she could have been Adamās daughter if his first wife hadnāt run off with another guy.Ā Honestly, considering how immature and spiteful Adam is shown to be later, sitting down and talking to Charlie and having lunch āwithā her is reasonably chill behavior on the Adam scaleā¦.Ā Iām kind of getting āthat weird uncle that peaked in collegeā vibes from him.
Starting from about this point is where Lute begins to become more interesting to me than Adam.Ā We get what heās like.Ā But when heās asking whether a girl would want a ālesserā guy to him, Lute shakes her head, agreeing with him.Ā
She hasnāt said a word so far, but immediately sheās on Adamās side ā not at all appalled that this guy representing Heaven is acting like this and in agreement with him even.
Lute will remain fascinating to me, just saying that now.
Adam goes into listing what he thinks is āour biggest problemā and knowing what we know about Adam later him possibly having herpes is both amusing and scary.Ā Iām pretty sure he uses the exorcist army as his own harem.Ā Maybe thatās why all of them are so angry.
(Yes, I think everyone caught the fourth wall break.)
(Weāre not the ones who refuse to go out in public without a mask on, big man.Ā Well, at least not since COVID numbers went down!)
I really want to find out Nifftyās backstory.Ā
Iām sure Vivianne already has the whole thing drafted out in her head.Ā But that complete paralysis when the camera was rolling seemed like a trauma response.Ā And thatās in a room that has a guy that is frequently raped on camera standing a few feet away from her.Ā Niffty goes totally dissociative until she hears the word ācutā and the camera beep off.Ā So, so curious.
(Have some nightmare fuel.)
I feel like working in the film industry Angel would be the perfect person to explain āfix it in postā to Vaggie if she hadnāt bitten his head off.Ā He literally raises his hands in surrender when she snarls at him, so done with all of their shit.
What room is Vaggie in when sheās editing the commercial?Ā We know thereās a reasonably better working TV down in the living room since they were watching it at the beginning of episode 4, and that room doesnāt look like hers and Charlieās room that we see later on.
And why did this seemingly unused room get matching elephant statues for the mantle?
Alastor shows up to be generally unhelpful and kick her while sheās down, as heās wont to do.Ā
Alastorās shadow thing is so interesting to watch.Ā In some ways, it almost acts like Asmodeusās extra faces from Helluva Boss, mimicking Alastorās emotions.Ā But then other times it acts semi-separately.Ā Is the shadow thing supposed to be Alastorās unfiltered id behind his veneer?
(You can actually kind of see a non-psychotic deer form for Alastor when the camera bugs out when Vaggie is trying to video him.Ā That looks like a deer to everyone else too, right?)
When Alastor has his āthis face was made for radioā freakout, heās missing the X in the middle of his forehead that he always has later, which is just an interesting detail to note.
I also feel like āwho or what you areā is something that could come up later on.Ā We know that Alastor is an aberration in Hell, having powers at levels never before seen from a Sinner.Ā Either his deal goes back farther than I was suspecting or else heās been very not-usual from the start.
I feel like what Alastor does here with Vaggie is the first (or second if the pilot is cannon) step along a long road to desensitization.Ā We make him see two deals in the current timeline in the show ā once to not have to fuss with the TV ever again, once for a favor where Charlie āharms no one.āĀ
He seems to be getting them used to making little, insignificant (or maybe significant, depending on his favor ā it was very specifically worded) deals with him.Ā Like when you try to get close to a stray animal so inch your way towards it one step at a time.Ā Though in this case Alastor would probably do the bitingā¦
I also feel like itās very telling that Alastor didnāt bother to offer to do his whole set/costumes/crew thing when Vaggie first asked for help with the commercial.Ā Only when helping with the commercial was in some way beneficial to him.
Are these dudeās Alastor summons a couple of times other Sinners, or are they just fake, temporary creatures?Ā Does that mean that Alastor is controlling them or are they equipped with some sort of rudimentary AI that lets them perform the tasks heās set to them?Ā If they are other Sinners, Husk and Niffty are out of uniform.Ā If they arenāt, Angel can probably keep the one he hits on later as a fancy sex toy without many moral implications.
(Alastor should give up being the Radio Demon and give Velvette a run for her money in the fashion industry.Ā Angel and Vaggieās outfits in particular are *chefās kiss*)
I hope Alastorās closed captions staff are better than Amazonās, though.Ā
Also, at some point during the flash back to the hotel, Adam has finished his pile of ribs.Ā I donāt know how if he never shuts up enough to let someone else get a word in edgewise.
Adam and Lute start talking about the Exterminations, and Lute mentions that she āgot a good 275 this year.āĀ (Weāll be coming back to that number later, by the way.)
Adam seems impressed by this, telling her that was ābad-assā and giving her a fist bump.Ā While calling her ādanger tits.āĀ Lute does not, in fact, punch Adam in the face for this.Ā Again here Lute seems totally on board with Adamāsā¦ Adam-ness.
She seems like some of the girls that Iāve known from school, work, etc that go out clubbing and actually will give the time of day to the guys who wear sunglasses inside and think that negging is a successful way to get womenās attention.Ā Lute, you are encouraging bad behavior!
But thatās not surprising since Lute is quickly revealed to be a zealot, a fanatic, an extremist.Ā
She hasnāt just drank the Kool-Aid, she was pouring the fruit punch flavored powder mix into the pitchers for other people to add the water to.Ā
(Is this because if you, personally, catch an angel making one you de-angel-ify them?
Her belief system is carved in stone, and unfortunately for Charlie and all of Hell that belief system is that Sinners double-dying is not only an acceptable thing but an excellent thing.
Lute does reveal something here that has the potential to become important later: that Lucifer made some kind of arrangement that spares the Hellborn from the exorcisms.Ā
Vivziepopās other show āHelluva Bossā focuses a lot more on the Hellborn than Hazbin Hotel does (obviously, with Hazbin being focused on the redemption of Sinners.)
The Hellborn that we see/know/spend time with in Hazbin are going to include: Charlie, Keekee, Razzle, Dazzle, the Egg Boys, Fat Nuggets, and thatās pretty much it.Ā Everyone else aside from background characters in Hazbin ā I may have missed one or two ā is an open target.Ā I guess maybe fallen angels must also be exempt since no one is trying to go after Lucifer himself.
Luteās words do seem to upset Charlie a bit.Ā āHow little you matter,ā she said, and it looked like a hit to Charlieās battleship.Ā Which I know Charlie is a bouncy blonde ball of daddy issues at this point, but it really seems like the opposite, doesnāt it?Ā Like she ā and the other Hellborn ā were being protected.Ā Is Charlie upset that the exorcists arenāt coming after her because they canāt, so they donāt really care about (killing) her?Ā Maybe thatās just Charlieās guilt for being exempt?
Charlie tries to explain her plans to Adam and Lute, but by this point we all know that sheās not going to succeed, right?Ā At least her crayon drawings are kind of cute.
āHell is Foreverā sounds like one of the songs that the youth pastors I grew up having to go hang out with every other week (divorced parents, split custody) used to make religion cool to the youngsters.Ā
Very Skillet, Fireflight, etc.Ā This aināt your grandpappyās religion ā except the whole eternal damnation part.Ā Except Iām pretty sure they would have censored some of the āfucksā to let us have this one.
Adam kind of cuts through all of the divine judgement propaganda to get to the heart of things in the second verse.Ā This isnāt even about population control or final death or any of that ā he and his exterminators just enjoy it.
Ā Since we find out later that no one else knows about the exterminations, I imagine that the exterminators have to be ā up to a certain point, at least ā on their best behavior in Heaven.Ā This kind of makes Extermination Day a bit like āThe Purgeā for exorcists.Ā
One day to go nuts and get it all out of their systems.Ā Frankly, it might be a little bit dangerous for Heaven to stop the extermination; after several thousands of years of having that release valve, if it was suddenly taken away that pressure could go pretty kaboom ā and Sera wonāt let that kaboom happen anywhere near her Winners.
(Charlie is right.Ā Where did all of these backup singers come from?Ā Theyāre gold, not full monochrome like Lute, so theyāre probably not real exorcists they yanked into the meeting room from the lobby.Ā Adam must have a āgive me a posseā button in the Heaven version of the meeting room.)
Adamās big reveal comes right at the end of the song.Ā Theyāre moving the next Extermination Day up to six months instead of a year out.
Who approved this plan?Ā Did Sera sign off on this?Ā This seems like really bad population control practice.Ā The exterminations seem to already be getting worse and worse (Carmilla Carmine says specifically that this most recent extermination was brutal, with approximately 15% of the Sinner population being wiped out.)Ā
If they increase the pace and severity of exterminations, thatās almost a third of the population each year.
I stopped going to church a long time ago, but that number seems interestingā¦
Revelation 9:15: āAnd the four angels, who had been prepared for the hour and day and month and year, were released, so that they would kill a third of mankind.ā
Revelation 9:18: āBy these three plagues a third of mankind was killed, by the fire and smoke and sulfur coming out of their mouths.ā
This may not mean anything.
(We'll pick up in Episode 1, Part 4 due to Tumblr's 30 images-per-post limit.)

Twenty (Three!) Years of Humanistic!
Abandoned Pools' first album, Humanistic was released 23 years ago today, on September 25th, 2001! For anyone who doesn't know, Abandoned Pools is my all time favorite band! I found them through Clone High in September of 2020 and immediately connected with a LOT of their songs, and in that time, Humanistic became my all time favorite album! A spot that it still retains to this day hehe.
So when I found out that the following year, almost a year to the day from when I started listening to Abandoned Pools, was Humanistic's 20th anniversary, I knew I wanted to make something big for that occasion! I ended up making a drawing based on each song in the album! This is similar to what I did for Owl City's album Cinematic later on, which I posted last year.
This is also sort of a look at proto Let's Get Back! in a way! I made this when LGB! was still just a duo act with PB and Shep, since Rye and Pumpernickel didn't join the lineup until I was about halfway through the project, and the band wasn't officially named Let's Get Back! until February of 2022 lol. The cover image here is based on the actual album cover for Humanistic, and I edited later to say "Covers by Let's Get Back!" to make it consistent with the rest of my LGB! art :3
Each piece in the series is below the cut along with the song they're connected to and some explanation about each one. Again, these pieces are three years old at this point, so some of the art is a bit wonky looking and some of these piece I'd do differently if I were to do them today, but most of them still hold up pretty well I think! :D
1: The Remedy
I based this one on the line āsave your breath, your soul is hollowā and wanted to do something simplistic but still interesting! According to my friend who also likes the song, this is āexactly how that song feelsā lol. It was fun working with silhouettes here, which is something I've done here and there in the time since.
2: Mercy Kiss
I decided to not actually draw them kissing bc the song says āI donāt need your mercy kissā haha. Wanted to capture sort of a defiant attitude for this one. Posing is a little off here, and I've tweaked some minor things abt their design but overall one that I'm still pretty happy with :]
3: Start Over
I was SUPER happy with the posing on this one, I love the sense of motion it has. Basically, I wanted to express being stuck in a cycle and just wanting to go back to the way things were, which was something I was REALLY feeling at the time, but is still sort of applicable today.
4: Monster
Another one I REALLY like, with this one, I wanted to show that I can be a force to be reckoned with when standing up for myself. Or at least thatās how the song makes me feel. Itās a good rampage song too. This is another case where I really like how the pose came out. As you can also see, this is the only piece without PB since I wasn't sure how to incorporate him into this idea, but Iām sure heās still involved somehow lol. Also this is the best song called Monster, I do not take criticism at this time.
5: Blood
Blood always feels like a sort of gloomy, spiral-y type song, so thatās what I went for. The line āwe watch it burn, and we never learn, this canāt be what youāre waiting forā was really the focus for this one. A neat vibe with this one overall I think that I'm pretty happy with.
6: Suburban Muse
Suburban Muse makes me think of like, a fake sitcom town where things look normal, but things arenāt as great as they seem if you look a little closer. It even says ācue the canned applauseā at one point. Also, those sort of, weird reality dreamscape neighborhood liminal space images like this where you can see where it's coming from but they just feel, off y'know
7: Sunny Day
This one is kinda weird because Sunny Day is kinda weird (though in like the best possible way, I love it). I couldnāt quite come up with a solid idea for both my OCs here, so I based them on two separate lines: āmy head is inside a cloudā for PB, and āget off the bathroom floorā for Shep. In hindsight, I don't think the two separate lines approach really worked here since it feels more disjointed and not really representative of the full song, but I still like it well enough.
8: L.V.B.D.
This one was hard to come up with something for. Iāve never been super crazy abt L.V.B.D. since it feels, Very Heteroā¢ and Iām not about that. But itās still sounds great and Iām definitely super glad itās part of the album. Went for drawing Shep and PB here as little stuffed dolls, which is related to the acronym in the songās title (which stands for Little Virgin Baby Doll) and I couldnāt think of anything better aha. I should draw plushies more often though
9: Ruin Your Life
Important: Shep and PB are only upset with upset with each other for the sake of this drawing, as I refuse to let anything bad happen between them for real. Anyways, the expressions were really fun in this one, and oh boy does this song feel very relatable over the last year or so.
10: Never
This one is very similar to Ruin Your Life for me, where itās a sort of comforting during a dark time kind of way. Just crossing the days off hoping that things will get better soon, thatās what I went for here. The calendar is listed as 10/12 since this is the 10th song out of the 12 on the album, and the image is a reference to a previous drawing I had done of PB and Shep together :3
11: Seed
Personally, Seed is my least favorite song from the album as a whole, for similar reasons to L.V.B.D. but in a, more gross kinda way that conflicts with my ace side. The song still sounds great musically for sure. Even tho Iām not super crazy abt the song, I actually really like how this drawing came out, in fact it might be my favorite out of the whole batch, ironically enough lol. The boys are looking down into a hole from the line āthereās no more grace to fall from, thereās nowhere left to go but downā and I'm really happy with how the perspective turned out!
12: Fluorescein
Finally, Fluorescein is my favorite song of the entire album, and my favorite song in general! Itās so aggressive and loud, I love it. I decided to draw PB confronting a giant Shep bc the song makes me feel like I can take on a huge adversary and win >:] Although I do like what I chose to do here, I kinda wish I had come up with something better to represent my all time favorite song lol
So in conclusion, like I said, Humanistic is my all time favorite album and it means so much to me. Really all of APās work really means a lot to me, but Humanistic in particular. I found the band through watching Clone High and I am all the better for it. So thank you to Abandoned Pools for making something that Iāve gotten so much out of and I absolutely cannot wait for the sixth album coming at the end of next year!! :D
So I hope you guys liked this little trip down memory lane with me, and if you're also an enjoyer of Abandoned Pools, please let me know what you think of these and what your favorite AP songs are! I'd love to know! And if you don't listen to Abandoned Pools, I highly recommend their music if you can't tell lol. If you enjoy early 2000s alt rock sort of stuff, there's a solid chance you'll enjoy Abandoned Pools :3
