1 2

Unless they told someone, no one would have been able to guess it.

At school they were complete strangers.

She was the nice head girl with a clean record, all smiles and straight A’s. He was the mysterious bad boy with a track record, all tatted up with bruised knuckles.

She wore plaid skirts with neat pleads in them and pastel sweaters with bows at the collar. He wore jeans with rips in them and leather jackets with studs.

They couldn't have been any more different.

As far as anyone was concerned, they existed on two extreme ends of a vast spectrum.

What they didn't know was that they shared a dirty little secret.

.

You were a girl with many dirty secrets.

For instance, you used to sell nudes online. It was a side hustle you did.

Not because you needed money.

Your mom was a renowned doctor so there was more than enough of that in your life.

Not because you needed validation from people online either.

Even without the constant compliments and the praises you knew you were visually blessed with a pretty face and a nice body too.

All things considered, you simply thought you had a nice pair of tits and you took pictures of them sometimes.

Posting the shots you snapped online came much later when you heard about this website where people were getting paid crazy money for posting racy things.

‘It’s just so degrading…’ It was one of your friends, June, who sneered, pretty nose scrunched up. She fixed her long ponytail and rolled her brown eyes while looking in the mirror at her locker. ‘Who would do such a thing, am I right?’

She said this, but June was the girl who has slept with more boys than she could count on her two hands. And those were the ones she told you about.

Like every other time, you said nothing. Even when it carried on to lunch with the rest.

‘Pretty desperate if you ask me.’ Mei the stellar track runner shrugged casually as she stretched her limbs like routine.

‘Where are their parents?’ Nina the library nerd shook her head in disapproval as she fixed her glasses so it sat right on the bridge of her nose.

‘Um… I don’t think it’s … appropriate… to talk about ….’ Kiko the one who always carried a cross and bible around mumbled into her sleeve.

All your friends spoke of it in derision and repulsion of course. This was a school for proper children so they were proper girls. At least they were supposed to be.

Regardless the conversation sparked a curiosity in you.

So you made an account and uploaded your first picture. Nothing bizarre. Just your tits in a pretty lace bra.

You made sure to keep your face out of the frame because that was the smart thing to do and you were nothing if not the smartest student in school.

In all honesty, you weren’t expecting anything out of it. In fact, in between work with student council and tutoring your juniors with finals right around the corner, you even forgot about it for an entire month.

It was by a complete whim that you decided to open the app while you’d been unwinding at your desk following a tedious day at school.

To say you were amused by the response you found waiting for you would have be a grave understatement.

You were staring at the four figure digit that now sat in your bank account.

Reading through the comment section was even more interesting.

There were all sorts of people there who had all sorts of things to say. Ranging from honestly sweet to downright dirty.

You had never been brought to tears laughing in her life before until then.

It was just so funny to see people misbehave and lose their minds over a pair of tits.

From then on it just sort of became a thing.

.

But that wasn't the worse of your secrets.

You were making a name for yourself on the crude web months later.

The next step was naturally to move from making taking pictures to making videos. Since you was already in too deep you didn’t see why not.

So you upgraded and opened another account. An amateur one where your touched yourself for an audience.

You were no prude.

You might have never been touched by a boy before but you had touched yourself plenty times. Stress and frustration came hand in hand with being head girl. Since you couldn’t quite vent it out at the annoying troublemakers at school, this was your second best option.

Third was watching porn, but that was mostly when you were extremely bored.

But that wasn’t where that little endeavor ended.

Later on it became a lot more risqué.

.

It all started when your mom hit you with a marriage announcement.

She met a guy on her business trip who she really liked and she was convinced he was the one.

Your mom had a tragic history of being a bad judge of character.

You’ve had this conversation at least five times since you became old enough to understand that boys and girls who were just friends didn’t kiss and sleep with each other.

Most times, it felt like she was doing it because she thought you needed a dad around.

You might have once, when you were younger and your mom was too busy with work to be there. But she worked from home these days and you were soo busy with school to worry about things like that.

This time it was like she was doing it for her. You were glad.

Your mom looked genuinely happy when she spoke about this guy.

Who were you to get in the way?

.

She spent almost the whole weekend in the kitchen. It was the longest you’ve seen her in there in your entire life.

She was excited for the dinner on Sunday.

Mr Jeon was the name of the chosen man.

He was coming over with his kid. A son, his only family. His wife passed away years ago.

You wore the dress your mom picked out for you, something cream in color and off the shoulders that brushed your knees. She looked pretty in her champagne dress. It was different from the office slacks and loose blouses you were used to seeing her in.

You stood by her at the door while the guests came through.

Lifting your head from a polite bow, you found herself staring straight into an achingly familiar pair of glinting dark eyes and went completely still.

‘Sweetie,' Your mother said sounding delighted, a soft hand on your stiff shoulder. 'This is Mr Jeon and his son Jungkook.’

Ah. Fuck.

‘Jeon dear, this is my daughter. Isn’t she lovely?’

.

Dinner was a mild affair, with small talk and the occasional clinking of cutlery on fine china.

From the outside looking in, you probably looked the picture perfect family already.

Only if no-one looked close enough.

Arms crossed, tongue in cheek. Your discomfort could be detected from miles away.

The two adults were oblivious.

The dark eyed boy with the slightest wave to his nape touching, brow grazing, ear covering onyx hair sat across you though; he took note of this with a passing glance and wordlessly returned to his food.

Jeon Jungkook had a countenance that betrayed his reputation.

Even though you’ve never talked, you knew plenty about him and you were sure he knew a lot about you too.

You went to the same school.

Dressed as he was in a crisp white dress shirt buttoned at the wrist and dark tailored pants with a fine belt on, it might have been hard to tell what kind of person he really was.

You lifted her gaze from your plate to look study him wordlessly, idly twisting the noodles with your fork.

People either called him the black sheep or the dark cloud but for you, Jeon Jungkook was the school’s resident lone wolf.

He smoked in the secluded areas on campus, sometimes playing his guitar. Beat up people who got on his nerves, sometimes using his guitar. Slept in class the rare times he was there, many times on his guitar.

Being his senior, you had never seen any of any of that for yourself. But you received plenty reports weekly to come to a sound conclusion.

There was no way people hated him enough to join hands in solidarity and make this all up.

It was quite the contrary actually. He had an alarming number of fans.

On the surface level you couldn’t see why. Most times you saw him, he looked bored out his mind and honestly, intimidating.

Maybe it was the tattoos. Or the ripped skinny jeans. Or the leather jackets with studs.

Maybe it was the domineering height and fit frame and structured face.

Maybe it was the intense dark eyes or the silky ruffled hair.

Even then, you failed to see the irresistible appeal in him. All those things that made him up only added to his unapproachable aura.

Bottom line was, he was bad news.

.

You didn’t want to be a spoil sport.

But how much of a thug your mom’s boyfriend’s son was shouldn’t be something that would make her like him less.

They were both their own people. Right ?

It was just that you just didn’t want her to be shocked and devastated if something happened later. When it happened.

Yet it seemed the serious conversation would have to wait.

After dinner your mom suggested you head to the living room to chat over wine and cheese.

You stayed back to do take out the dishes.

Earlier, your mom had stood to do it instead at first.

‘Don’t bother with that, dear.’ She reached for the plates in your hands. ‘Let me do it.’

‘It’s okay, mom.’ You smiled a little. ‘This is your night. I’ll meet you in the living room.’

'Sweetie...' Your mom looked close to tears. ‘But there’s so much of it…’

‘Jungkook,’ his father's voice had cut through the moment. He was a serious man in a crisp suit with a stoic countenance. His voice was just naturally authoritarian without him trying ‘Give her a hand.’

Jungkook stood, almost robotically.

‘It’s fine.’ You said. Politely. Nicely. Tightly. ‘I can handle this much.’

You left without another word.

That had been moments ago and now you were done with cleaning.

You stood at living room entrance for a while, taking in the scene.

The two adults were exchanging moon eyes and whispering in each other’s ears at the love seat.

Jungkook was sitting on a solo seat, but he was on his phone, completely unbothered by what was happening.

Your mom seemed to think it was the perfect time to pull out the photo album right then and there upon seeing you.

It was embarrassing but at least you knew you didn’t have to worry about the pictures spreading at school.

Jungkook was looking, picking up a picture occasionally to rove over, but he wasn’t the type to do that.

He also wasn’t the type to stare but you felt his glance shifting to you and lingering multiple times.

Once, you caught his eyes and he just stared at you across the coffee table wordlessly with a curious tilt to his head, idly flipping a picture of you dressed as a knight in glitter shining armor for Halloween at eight in his hands.

Honestly, it was starting to get annoying.

But you endured. For your mom’s sake.

.

Your alarm went off at exactly ten.

As subtly as you could, you excused yourself with an apology to the guests, saying you weren't really feeling well.

In hindsight you probably should have used a better excuse.

Your mom was notorious when it came to worrying, especially when it comes to your health.

Also, you probably should’ve locked the door before undressing just for good measure since people were over.

But in the moment, you were too busy setting your camera up where you were kneeling on the floor at the foot of the bed to be concerned about that.

That day you were testing out a new toy.

.

Distractedly, you took note of a couple of people asking you if that was your boyfriend’s shirt you had lifted over your tits.

You ignored them.

Couldn’t a girl own an oversized tee without getting any flack?

Trivial comments like that aside, a good majority of the audience are fawning over how wet you were and how perfect you bouncing tits look being played with.

Your head fell back and your eyes fluttered shut.

You were sitting there, knees raised to your chest and legs splayed, your gushing pussy in full display where the toy was stuffed deep into her tightness, vibrating pleasantly.

‘I’m close…’ you mumbled throatily, squeezing your tits and pinching your stiff nipples in between your moving fingers. You moved your hips move faster, feeling the toy buzz against fluttering walls. You took a hand off one of your tits to rub at your engorged clit. ‘Fuckfuckfuck…’

Deep in your high, you didn’t hear the door open and close with a foreboding click.

You only heard your name being called by a deep, smooth voice through the heady haze.

Instantly you stilled.

When you snapped your head to look over her shoulder Jungkook was there, hands in his pockets, leaning against your doorframe with his sleeves drawn up to his elbows, muscle roped, inked skin on full display.

When he tilted his head to the side a little, appraisively, you dared to say as a quaking chill ran down your spine and your entire body felt like it was about to burst into flames, a bit of his hair fell over his face.

His eyes were like two black in the dark as he took you in, dragging his gaze up and down your exposed body languidly.

In the back of your mind, you wished the ground would part and swallow you whole.

‘Your mom,' he starts, capturing your attention wholly, dark gaze finally flickering to your face, his voice suddenly lower, hoarser. ‘She sent me over to check on you.’

It took you a moment to realize where you were, who you were, who he was.

It was like a bucket of cold water had been dropped over your head.

Jeon Jungkook, the school's resident trouble maker, soon to be your step brother, just walked in on you fingering yourself in in front of a recording camera.

Well. Yeah.

You gulped.

You were royally fucked.

depending on the response I get I might ( most probably will ) delete this. not because I'm ashamed of my work. because I'm embarrassed of myself. I really swore to never write again and here I am. sigh. yes, I have seen my previous works and noticed just how terrible they were and this is a big reason why. so sorry for putting you through that. a million apologies.

also, that's right. I have adopted a new style which might not be to everyone's liking. another reason why.

anyways, if you liked this filth ( i know it seems mild but I can tell you it's very likely gonna get worse ) please idk uh... fuck this isn't ao3. hm.

like and drop by in the ask box if you liked it and want to see more. it makes me happy. its like serotonin fuel to me.

have a nice day. see you next time ( maybe ). stay fresh. yeah. 💜💜.

Which writer or director would you say has delivered the most (and best) buddie moments and which writer and director could you see being involved in creating their canon moment?

I've chosen writers and directors who we *know* are still actively involved with the series beyond receiving credit just because they have connections. Writers Juan Carlos Coto - Sink or Swim (not Buddie, but Buckley-Diaz family feels aplenty); Fallout; What's Next? (co-writer); Buck Begins (an episode about Buck that manages to be about Buddie, too); Panic (co-written with Tim Minear) Lyndsey Beaulieu - Rage (no matter how anyone feels about the fighting/lawsuit arcs, Buck assuming Eddie and Christopher would be just fine without him and Eddie stating that things were definitely not fine was a top-tier scene for the otp); Seize the Day ("Uh. This is Eddie's house. I'm not really a guest."); Alone Together (credit also goes to director David Grossman, but the scene where Eddie attaches Buck's harness and they review the plan for how to rescue the pregnant girls? *swoon* It was a preview of what's to come when they're canon!); Parenthood (”Can’t you both be good cops?”// “No!”); Suspicion (co-writer) [You already know.]; Desperate Times (co-writer) [a must-see to understand where Eddie's at rn]; Wrapped in Red (co-writer) [She helped shape where Buddie is at going into 5B] Andrew Meyers - The Christmas Spirit; Fools (Buddie/Buckley-Diaz scenes to juxtapose Ana's stance on the skateboarding incident); Future Tense (Buckley-Diaz scenes that were kept under wraps until the episode aired); Suspicion (the other co-writer); Desperate Times (co-writer with Lyndsey); Brawl in Cell Block 9-1-1 (hostage situation) Bob Goodman - Is Bob on Lyndsey and Andrew’s level? NO. Does he try his fucking best? YEAH.  Breaking Point (He wrote Eddie coming home to Buck after his date! And decided Christopher should take an Uber to see his other dad!); Treasure Hunt (Petty Eddie was a beautiful sight, idc idc); Home and Away (The Balcony Scene ™, a moment that could have easily replaced Eddie with the gf, but Bob knows what us gays want!) Kristen Reidel - Kids Today; What's Next? (co-writer); Survivors (Buddie post-shooting, change in guardianship, Eddie saying "Evan" for the first time ever...); Desperate Measures (JUST from a Buddie fan perspective, the closing scenes where Eddie tells Buck he's going home to break up with Ana, Buck returns to an empty apartment, and we watch Eddie struggle with explaining his true feelings to Ana???? 5/6 minutes of television that is worth a re-watch!) Tim Minear (yeah, I said it) - Under Pressure (co-writer); Help Is Not Coming (co-writer); This Life We Choose; Panic (co-writer) As (co)showrunner, Tim has the final say re: what stays in each episode's script. Everything we love about Buddie, every scene that is giffed, every piece of dialogue that is quoted and used for edits or fics, none of it would exist if Tim didn't think it was worth including. His approval is the #1 reason why Buddie's story has played out in a way nobody could have envisioned. Directors This is a much quicker list to put together since the obvious answers are ‘whoever directed our favorite scenes’, but again, I’m only listing the names that are currently associated with the show or were associated within the last few seasons.  Bradley Buecker - 7.1 + Help Is Not Coming (parts two and three of the earthquake arc where Buck learns about Christopher); Merry Ex-Mas; This Life We Choose; Sink or Swim; Panic; Desperate Times Marcus Stokes - Fallout  David Grossman - I have no idea where this man has been, but he gave us some GOOD content: Fools; Alone Together (the harness scene I mentioned above was his doing!); Parenthood; Breaking Point (the domesticity in Eddie returning home to Buck and Chris!!!); Treasure Hunt (Eddie being an actual wrench in BT’s blossoming relationship??? His facial expressions??? G O L D.) Paula Hunziker - Has only directed one (1) episode of OG 911. It was the hostage situation. Self-explanatory.  Robert M. Williams Jr. - Eddie Begins; Survivors Buck thinks Eddie’s gonna die? Tim knows just who to call.  Brenna Malloy (OUR QUEEN) - 9-1-1, What’s Your Grievance? (Eddie tries to validate Buck’s feelings about his parents. His expressions were so intense that not all of them made the final cut :P); Suspicion (just Buck and Eddie staring each other down in the street right after Eddie gets shot nbd nbd); Home and Away (The Balcony Scene™); Wrapped In Red (sneaky Buckley-Diaz angles! Buck’s reaction to Eddie leaving the 118 being eerily similar to his shock when Eddie was shot!) As for who I think may be involved in creating their major canon moment... I would be happy with any of the directors listed here, tbh. Brenna is my number one choice because whenever she shows up you know there’s bound to be a scene we won’t stop talking about.  I (and I’m sure many others) have expressed my desire to see Lyndsey and Andrew involved in the “big” Buddie episode because they just...they GET IT. But honestly? I think Tim is going to want to be hands-on because he made it happen. And knowing that Tim doesn’t usually work alone, I could see him linking up with Kristen since they both (currently) have creative control over the show.

2021-02-27 Some things I want to say

WARNING LONG POST

Context first, translation of his post above will follow:

Disclaimer: I have no interest in other artists other than Xiao Zhan, and I am merely explaining the situation of the fandom in China that led us to the fiasco in March 2020. I do not care for bjyx, I ship WangXian but I do not ship real people as a basic principle.

My opinion as an international fan of Xiao Zhan and as an AO3 user (yes, I am not Chinese nor do I live in China, I just happen to be able to read Chinese) is that C-entertainment industry is TOXIC and celebrities are not free targets for you to cyberbully. They are human just like you and me. 

Everyone needs to learn a bit more about compassion. 

I am sure all of you read about the cyberbullying Xiao Zhan went through last year. There were multiple factors that started all of this, most of which XZ doesn’t talk about in this letter because of how sensitive the topic is in China. I’ve never explained entirely what happened because I personally thought that this is not something overseas fans should worry too much about. Especially since most of you don’t have a wb or db account, there’s nothing you can do about it anyway. But since Xiao Zhan himself decided to post a letter to respond to this subject, I’ll put in my 2 cents just that so everyone is on the same page.

Basically, after The Untamed aired in China, the show fandom split into 3 groups. XZ fans, WYB fans, and CP fans (or bjyx, whatever you wish to call it, those who love shipping these two real people together - not just the characters in the drama). Of course there are still people who would watch the show without becoming a fan of the actors.

At the beginning, most people thought they were good friends with each other, with all the short BTS clips from The Untamed. However, fans slowly discovered that it wasn’t the case. Some unofficial BTS clips emerged where WYB said XZ was shooting multiple dramas at the same time = 轧戏 (which is very frowned upon and a disrespectful thing to say to an actor), whereas in reality, XZ only asked for a couple of days days off during the shooting for The Untamed because his scenes in Joy of Life had to be redone and he was bound by contract. On the contrary, WYB had to ask for most weekends off because he was participating in Produce 101 at the time. Other clips shows them fighting about somethings WYB said about WWX, which made XZ mad. So this broke a lot of CP fans’ image of their relationship, and they either stopped shipping/became XZ or WYB fans only. This angered WYB’s fans, of course, which made them blame XZ for the entire fiasco.  

Other incidents continued to happen after the show which increased the friction between these 3 fan groups. XZ fans and WYB fans would fight about various voting charts, and fight with CP fans because they don’t like seeing the two actors together. In the meantime, CP fans continuously feminize and weaken XZ in order to ship the 2 actors together (it’s rather an unhealthy trend in China, I’ve been in multiple other western fandoms before - not real person shipping - but we rarely glorify weakening/feminizing the bottom of a ship, because of the underlying prejudice against real homosexuals, who are not synonymous to transgenders).

Some incidents added oil to the fire afterwards. It’ll take me too long to explain everything, so I’ll just put here the main ones to explain why there’s so much bad blood between these 3 groups of fans.

On XZ’s birthday, some CP fans found XZ’s parents’ apartment building and yelled BJYX is real. This angered a lot of XZ fans, because of how disrespectful it was towards the old couple and the clear breach of privacy. WYB fans and some CP fans were also angry that XZ didn’t reply immediately to the birthday wish on wb that WYB sent at midnight (??? XZ was busy shooting a drama, can you blame him for not being on wb at midnight? Give the guy a break.)

In November 2019, WYB filed a lawsuit against some of XZ’s fans (instead against of his own haters!) for dissing him (although I’ve never seen any proof, and a few of those fans remain active on wb now, one of whom has even defended WYB's portrayal of LWJ before...). This angered a lot of XZ fans and CP fans who didn’t understand how he could have done this to his “friend”, and further proved that their relationship wasn’t that fantastic to begin with. WYB fans felt justified in hating XZ and all XZ fans as a result, and openly bullied XZ fans on the grounds of the Nanking CQL Concert. 

In January, The Untamed was named to Beijing Journal Drama award. CP fans and WYB fans were unhappy that XZ was named to the Best Male Lead category and WYB was named to the Best Male 2nd Lead. They attacked the award committee wb by spam commenting all their wb posts and the entire drama was pulled from the nomination afterward. XZ fans were especially angry that they started all this only for the nomination to be pulled out - because the only possibility was one Male Lead per drama, and anyone would agree that if chosen between WWX and LWJ, the character with the most scenes and importance in the story is WWX. 

Yadda yadda yadda, fast forward to February 2020, it started with a fanfiction written by a CP fan that depicted XZ as a prostitute transgender woman and WYB as a highschool kid (UNDERAGE) = AKA very sensitive material in China. It was posted on AO3, but the author posted the link of said fic on wb and a lot of CP fans broadcasted it around, so much that XZ fans became aware of it. Due to how sensitive the material is and how badly it would taint XZ’s image for his future roles, some XZ fans started reporting the wb post that contained the link (NOT AO3) and the author’s wb page. This is common practice in fandom on wb, usually done to get the wb posts taken down. This caused panic in the CP fans crowd because they thought XZ fans were reporting AO3 and that they were gonna lose the website (which is impossible, because AO3′s servers are in Sweden and not subject to Chinese laws anyway). 

Because of how sensitive AO3 was in China and how haters tried to pull in antigovernmental into their crowds, the subject quickly became too dangerous for XZ fans to get involved in. Official fan groups in China unanimously decided to ask all fans to stop participating in the online debate and stay within the fan group circle only. 

Someone on AO3 made a commentary about this incident that you can find here. She dug up a lot of info on the companies feeding money to the trolls online, but as I am an overseas fan and cannot really verify her info, I will not comment on those statements. 

Sometime in the middle of this fiasco, someone started spreading the notion that XZ fans hated fanfiction and were trying to report anything that goes against their image of their idol... And subsequently people who were not CP fans or XZ fans became aware of this problem when they couldn’t access AO3 suddenly because too much curious fans where trying to access it and they crashed the servers. However later on, people could access the website without any problems. I am not personally in China right now so I can’t verify these claims of the website being walled or not for real, but I know from various reliable sources that on March 1st it was only an overload of the server, and people could still access afterwards. 

With this however, haters (which include previous CP fans, WYB fans, and other idol’s fans) attacked XZ for not telling his fans to stop reporting, for not saying anything. They attacked XZ’s endorsements and spammed hate speech on the products he was promoting. They would rate 1 star in all his dramas and songs on db, and then buy accounts to further rate 1 stars (yes that thing exists in China, everything can be bought in China, don’t ask me why.) The reason why I believe that all this wasn’t coincidental, is that barely the day after the fiasco started, someone posted on db the exact list of all his sponsorships, detailing exactly who to call to protest, what words to spam in the comment sections of various official brands’ wb accounts. This entire thing was too well planned to be just a normal fandom fight. 

Whether it was other actors’ fans who organized this to cut down competition, we will probably never know for sure. The following year was laden with fake rumors, hate speech blasting from multiple directions. They attacked his personality, saying that his polite manners are just for show (when the reality is that he has always been a gentleman even when he wasn’t popular). They attacked XZ for faking donations to Wuhan, forcing him to show his donation certificate to prove himself. One of his friends couldn’t stand the cyberbullying anymore and revealed publicly that his grandfather recently passed away (the date on this drawing is 2020.03.03, he couldn’t post this last year). 

His friend defending him from the cyberbullies, saying that he had plenty of reasons to stay silent. That his grandfather passed away recently and his family has been planning his funeral. 

(Sources also said that his mother was hospitalized a few days afterwards. And that haters went to his mother’s hospital to harass her and her nurses)

Haters saying that XZ is using his grandfather’s death to excuse himself (??? is he not allowed to grieve like a normal person???)

Haters wishing that XZ becomes depressed from the cyberbullying and kills himself, wishing that he was dead, wishing that his fans were dead too. Photoshopping his picture into a funeral portrait to curse him

Haters admitting they are cyberbullying XZ, but rejoicing in the fact that they are so many so XZ can’t sue all of them. They have also reported his upcoming dramas for various reasons just so they cannot be aired. 

The airplane incident I’ve already talked about here.

A picture antis made to diss on XZ fans: AO3 can be still accessed even if it’s walled, Lofter can be still access even if it’s taken down from the app store. Your gege’s picture are still accessible even if he died. 

I’ve only posted here the tamest screenshots, there are far worst ones that I won’t be posting because the amount of vitriol give me nausea just looking at them. 

In all this fiasco, antis gave him the tag of “idol who didn’t manage his fans well”. But Xiao Zhan never thought fans needed to be trained, he thought of them like normal people, and their love, something to be treasured and not used. But some people in China still blamed his fans for starting all this mess, and partly him and his studio for not being able to stop it. 

Below is the translation for XZ’s letter, posted on the wb post above

Some Things I Want To Say

Today, I have something to say to everyone. I’ve thought of a lot of ways to do this, but in the end, I chose the simplest way to tell everyone about all my feelings and thoughts in the past year. These opinions, maybe they won’t be able to represent anything, nor won’t they be able to change anything, but I still wish to say this today. 

On this day last year, the incident happened very quickly, as if a bomb exploded on my face - endless phone calls, never ending message notifications, everyone’s opinions and questions came in like a tsunami. I wanted to say something back then, but I didn’t know what exactly. I was apprehensive of making a statement, afraid that one wrong word, or one wrong sentence would be taken the wrong way and end up adding oil to the fire. This is why at that time, I chose not to say anything. 

I never thought that the online fighting would grow bigger and bigger like an avalanche, getting larger crowds involved, and gradually leaving one person’s control. Even though afterwards I made repeated statements to make amends, it could not develop as I wished it to anymore. 

This life filled with broken protests and tumultuous noise continued to this day. And I felt I was going through a very dark and never ending tunnel. Unrest, ruminations, turmoil... I have also asked myself what did I do wrong exactly, why did everything after that day became as if it were an uncontrollable vessel. 

I spent a lot of time to digest, and then spent a lot of time to understand, understand everyone’s words and actions. Slowly, I started to understand what everyone was criticizing about me personally. The moment that I chose not to say anything, I lost that window of opportunity to reason with everyone. So I was wrong, from the very beginning. 

At that time, I wasn’t yet able to clearly understand the entire incident, to understand everyone’s feelings, nor did I know what kind of responsibility I had to carry as a public figure. Thus, I missed that opportunity to communicate with everyone, and wasn’t able to withstand the responsibility of letting these antagonizing feelings grow. Now, I can clearly recognize that throughout this year, this criticism that everyone had against me of “Idol Who Lost Its Voice”, was correct. During this year I reflected upon this repeatedly, as a public figure, I have to not only improve myself within the boundaries of my profession, but also have to carry the social responsibility that comes with my influence. To influence those who like me, who follow me, towards the right worldviews within my capacity. Even though my studio and I have already expressed some opinions through wb and interviews, but scars that this incident that brought such antagonistic emotions between different circles are still difficult to heal. 

No matter how late, my own problem has to be corrected. I would like to express my first comment: Xiao Zhan, would like to apologize for “losing voice” towards those who have been affected by this incident. This is my first responsibility towards the public, face the problem and admit my faults. 

Also, I would like to use this opportunity to speak with my fans. This is my second responsibility. In one of my interviews last year, I have said, I do not really agree with “managing” my fans (some celebs in China have hired people to manage fan groups in order for them to behave in certain ways for their purposes. Antis tried to spread the false rumor that XZ also had those people and that they directed their fans to start this mess), because everyone is an individual. No matter my studio nor myself, we do not have the authority to “manage” them like some would manage workers in a company. Afterwards, I reflected many times, maybe I cannot use the word “manage” to define my relationship with my fans, but I do have the responsibility to “correctly influence, and actively advocate”. So today, I would like to tell my fans, everyone has the right to like or hate something, and it should be respected and allowed within their own space. Of course this right should be reasonable, should not hurt anyone else, and remain within the boundaries of the correct values and norms. I hope my fans and friends can understand that no matter which profession, no matter what age, one’s own preferences or actions should not cross the line for one’s professional ethics or disrespect basic principles. 

(Here he is referring to reports of teachers using his name in class or asking children to say his name to cheer for him. This is a problem that occurred also with other celebrities in China, and for which he has already expressed himself previously.)

No matter online or in real life, everyone should be responsible for their own words. I also hope that we are not represented tags like “xx’s fans”, that we do not set this as the basis of where we stand on a topic nor do we let this determine what’s right or wrong. Everyone have their own hobbies and interest, respect everyone’s choice and freedom of speech. No matter whether they like me or hate me is their own right. Passion, this should be a source of strength to everyone, I do not wish for it to consume or hurt anyone. Perhaps I cannot change this kind of environment, but at least for you and me, today is a new start point. 

At last, I would like to talk a bit about myself. Ever since I came into this field, until today, I have always been defined by some tags. But the reason why I originally stepped into this circle was my passion for performance and music. And this is why, I will keep working on becoming a better actor and singer. The sudden criticism of “having lost voice” made me realize that, other than what I have always focused on professionally, I have to also be able to carry the responsibility of a public figure and an idol. I was born in a normal family in Chong Qing, and have lived a normal life, like many other people, for more than twenty years. Today I will also use this opportunity to apologize for the words I have said before as a normal person (I’ve already talked about it here), for the people I have inadvertently hurt. As I work hard on studying to become a better person, I will try to become a better “public figure”, so that these two Xiao Zhan can blend in together, for a better self. 

This past year, no matter big or small, I have to be responsible for the incidents that happened because of me. I can demand this for myself, but I have no right to force it on other people, so I can only hope that those who really like me can really listen to me: please be a bit more reasonable for things outside of personal preferences. Live a healthy life, put more time and energy onto one’s real life, and less on the senseless fighting behind fake IDs and unreliable online world. Only to become a better self. 

(Here he’s referring to an online fight that an anti called 晨小晨 started. I’ve already explained a bit here.  #微博管理员回应晨小晨事件# )

Sorry for any grammar errors, this post was really long to make and I didn’t proofread. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to translate the entire thing for overseas fans since you don’t understand the entire context, and because I wanted my wb records collection tag to be complete, I felt I had to... and I got carried away trying to explain everything. Tried to summarize it as much as I could.

As a fan of Xiao Zhan and also an AO3 user, I would still like to apologize for how this bullshi*t ended up disrupting respectful and peaceful users of AO3. The Untamed tag did not contain hate fics before all of this happened, it is unfortunate that a place where there used to be only love, ended up being tainted by antis and haters.

To the anonymous person who asked me a few months ago if I supported bjyx, this is my answer: You have the right to like whatever you want within your own corner, as long as it doesn’t bother anyone else and isn’t against basic principles. I ship WangXian as characters from a novel, but I have never liked RPS as a principle.

Chapter: 1

⚠️WARNING⚠️: An innocent, non-fuckboyish, sweet Jungkook ahead. A naked you.

JK’s P.o.V.

Jeon Jungkook stares out the window of the Hyundai Palisade, a glum look on his pretty face. He hates having to travel in these big SUVs but he has no other choice since they are now the brand ambassadors for this automobile company. He sighs wearily and looks at Jin but gets no reaction from the older male. His Hyung is too busy in reading some kind of business magazine for food-related things.

There are moments where an uncanny emptiness engulfs Jungkook and he finds himself feeling like he’s choking, sharp pangs hitting his chest. As a child, it was his dream (and duty) to become a famous artist loved by his fans (to support his family’s expenses). But now that he has achieved it all, it’s hard to find inspiration, the drive to work harder. It’s also hard to find motivation in doing anything at all. He wonders how Jimin Hyung does it. That man is always so hard working and manages to create something different about everything he does. What’s his secret? Why doesn’t he ever resign to the clutches of apathy? Jungkook wants to ask him a lot of things but he doesn’t want to make his extra-loving elder brother fret over him. If Jimin Hyung finds out that he’s been feeling down, he’ll share this with his soulmate aka V Hyung, who’ll be equally concerned and share with Namjoon Hyung and just like that, slowly but surely, the news will reach their PDnim.

He cranes his head to take a peek at the camera bag snuggled by his side. Nostalgia rushes over his emotions. He misses doing GCFs. Not that he’s been prohibited to do them, he just isn’t feeling inspired enough to create something new. At the front of the car, in the passenger’s seat, he can see a pen moving fast over a blank piece of paper. Namjoon Hyung is so good at this. He tells himself. The man can take inspiration from even the smallest of things and twist them into meaningful lyrics. What’s his secret then? There’s a reason why Namjoon and Jimin Hyung are considered the wisest amongst them. The two are never down when it comes to their job as Global Idols. Sure they have their bad days too but they rather ask to be left alone. They always sort their inner conflicts by themselves and come out even stronger.

Jungkook wishes he can be like them someday..

The car stops by a beautiful lodge near the beach that they are supposed to shoot at. For this year’s Summer Package shoot and Bon Voyage’s latest season, BigHit has chosen this secluded coastal city. And since they are going to shoot for the Summer Package at the beach, the company booked a luxurious lodge at the beach site itself as it’ll reduce some travel expenses and be convenient to go to and from on feet.

Jungkook steps out of the car, slinging his camera bag on his shoulder as his eyes scan the area in search of something..something unknown..something fresh and different..something that can bring his creativity out of its dormant state.

Jin Hyung steps out behind him and so does Namjoon hyung from the front. They both thank the driver for the safe trip and walk towards the lodge. From the other car, Taehyung Hyung emerges out. He immediately pulls out his camera to snap pictures of the surroundings, only to be bumped by a grumpy Min Yoongi. He shuts the door to their shared car in annoyance and rushes inside the lodge along with a weary Hoseok Hyung. Taehyung Hyung only smiles in amusement and resumes his photography. It’s so admirable how he’s so cheerful all the time. He masks all his issues behind that radiant box-smile and always takes the most amazing aesthetic pictures. How?Jungkook wonders yet again.

The last car finally arrives and the backdoor opens, revealing a very happy Jimin Hyung whose arm is linked with his personal manager Sarang. She immediately pulls her fingers out of his grasp and looks around to check if anyone noticed. Her worried gaze meets Jungkook’s and she smiles awkwardly as if caught on a live cam doing something fishy. Jimin turns his head to find what has caught her attention and himself smiles at Jungkook. He leaves the girl and approaches his dearest maknae, ruffling his hair affectionately before speaking, “Keep this a secret?” Jungkook nods at his favorite Hyung’s request even though there’s really no need. Almost everyone at their company knows (or atleast have a hunch) that something romantic is brewing between Jimin and his newly appointed personal manager. It’s surprising that Pdnim hasn’t fired her yet. But that isn’t Jungkook’s matter. Also, he really likes her and is happy that someone is making Jimin hyung this joyful. He nods once more and himself begins to walk into the lodge, ignoring the bubbling concern in Jimin hyung's eyes on his receding back. He really doesn’t want anyone to waste their time trying to make him feel better.

Inside Jungkook learns that just like others, his room has already been appointed to him by the company and by the way that everyone is complaining, it’s appears to be the best room at this lodge. He shrugs, takes the key from Manager Sejin and walks up the stairs towards his room.

Upon unlocking it, the first thing he notices is his other luggage already present inside, placed neatly in one corner of the room and gently puts his camera bag along with it. The things he notices afterwards though, well..he realizes why his hyungs were complaining. Right next to the bed, is a big wall facing the vast expanse of the blue sea. The scenery is very pleasant. For a moment, he simply stands and stares as if in a trance.

However, the padding of another person’s footsteps break the trance. Jungkook turns around to be greeted by the lovely eye-smile of one Park Jimin.

“Wanna check that out?” Jimin asks in a playful tone.

Jungkook dubiously asks, “Ch-check what?”

“The sea ofcourse!” chimes in a deeper voice and Jungkook sneaks a glance behind Jimin to see Taehyung standing by the door.

Jungkook admits that even if he’s a fully grown, twenty-two year old young man, he enjoys being doted on by his hyungs. He nods in agreement. Maybe this will help him rediscover his love for film and video direction.

“Great! Change into something lighter. Just a pair of swimming trunks will be fine too and meet us downstairs.” Jimin tells him and both him and the 95liner besties leave their youngest in his privacy.

Jungkook takes no time in changing into a normal pair of black shorts. It’s not that he’s very eager about this. Honestly, nothing excites him these days. Not even the games he used to love playing so much. He’s only accepted his hyungs’ offer because he hopes that this will help him, even if only a little to find some inspiration.

He switches his timberlands with his puma slippers and runs down the stairs, camera bag in one hand, a black hoodie in the other. Downstairs, he sees neither Taehyung nor Jimin. From the kitchen, Jin’s voice informs that the two are busy taking proper showers. Jungkook chooses to get out on the beach by himself. His hyungs can join him after their baths. Passing his hands through the long sleeves of the hoodie, he pulls it over his head and stretches it down his torso. Once put on, he pulls up the cap of the hoodie to conceal his face from the public’s eyes. He doesn’t want anyone to recognise him as a member of BTS. That will cause a lot of trouble to the managers as well other members.

He closes the door behind him on his way out of the lodge and assesses his surroundings once before continuing further ahead. He has always been a lover of solace and doesn’t enjoy being in crowded places. And so, he decides to go to the farther regions of the beach which are fortunately still not infested by the general public at this beach.

He plops his bag on the sand and crouches down to open it but a sound interrupts him. Immediately he turns his head around to check the area, silently hoping that it is just his imagination and that none of his crazy fans have found him. Shockingly the sound comes again and he discerns that it is actually a very faint voice— a voice of someone in distress. And it seems to be coming from behind the huge rocky bed at the end of the bridge.

Oh well, not his problem.

But his conscience insists on checking out on the person. He tries defying the good in himself but various ominous thoughts begin looming in his head. What if the person has been lost here at the beach? But won’t they atleast try to retrace their steps in this case? Okay, then what if the person has been cheated on by their lover and are crying their sorrows here in solitude? But in this case, shouldn’t their feelings be respected? Yes, they should be! They should also be allowed privacy in such a time. With this final thought, Jungkook nods to himself and unzips his camera bag.

Another wail of sadness reaches his ears and he stands up, his feet jogging off their own accord towards the source. He can’t help it. There’s something about the tone of this voice that’s calling him out, as if asking for his help. He chuckles to himself at the silly notion and increases his pace. On reaching the rocks, he uses his hands to exert force on the rocks and leaps over them. There he is greeted by the back of a woman, sitting by the shore.

��Um..excuse me. Are you..are you okay?” He asks. To be honest, he has never properly talked to a woman besides his mother and Manager Sarang. He has no idea if he’s doing it right.

The woman doesn’t respond. She’s way too immersed in her gloom to hear him.

“Are you lost? Or..maybe heartbroken?” He questions, hoping that he isn’t being too blunt with her.

She turns her head this time, her long,wavy brown hair,swishing due to the motion and Jungkook is stunned. His doe-like black eyes fall onto her blue ones. No! Not blue; a beautiful beryl shade of blue with hints of green swimming in them as if reflecting the sea itself. Her tiny button nose reminds him of Jimin Hyung but without the slight bridge on it and it is red due to hours of crying just like her eyes. Her lips are thin and pale. They’ve lost the natural color in them but somehow still look so kissable. To say that she is strikingly beautiful is an understatement. She is way more than just beautiful or attractive. She’s something else..she feels like an ethereal being who’s been sentenced to wander these lands for eternity.And yet, there’s something wrong..

She shakes her head timidly in response to his query, making Jungkook snap out of the haze. Taking her action as an affirmative, he moves closer towards her.

“Do you need help going–”

His offer dies down as he suddenly finds himself on the sandy grounds, the girl clinging to him like vice. And it takes a few moments for his body to sense and register how very naked she is. He can literally feel her perky nipples even through the thickness of his hoodie and his face begins flushing pink. This may sound shocking but he has no experience with women at all. The girl however, stares down innocently at him, a complete look of helplessness apparent in her enrapturing eyes.

He speaks whilst trying to sit up but is unable to.“I’m sorry but can you get-”He stops midway, failing again to sit up. His brows knit in suspicion as he becomes aware of the sensation of something long yet smooth and hard coiled around his legs. When he shifts his gaze to the side, Jungkook gasps inwardly for the sight renders him speechless. A lengthy blue, scaly and fish-like limb is wrapped tightly around his legs— a kind of limb that unmistakably is attached to the girl currently on top of him. A limb that he’s only ever seen in fantasy movies. A limb that looks exactly like the tail of a mermaid.

Fear begins gripping his form but the girl sobs again, her teary eyes pleading. “Please..save me..”

A/N: So this is a random thought that entered my head and I decided to write down. Sarang, the name of Jimin’s manager was chosen specifically. Can you guess why?

More will be revealed about Y/N in the coming chapters and why she was crying by herself at the shore.

Hope you are looking forward to the next chapter. Feel free to send asks..:)

Until Next Time...

In the Sunshine of Seoul (Pt. 1 of ???)

Pairing: Reader x Kim Namjoon Word Count: 1715 Genre: Fluff and cheesiness

A/N: This is my first BTS fic, and I’m happy to get it out of my brain and into the world! The concept is that the reader has been studying Korean, and conversations happen in both English and Korean throughout. But I don’t intend to use romanized Korean at any point. Also, if it isn’t obvious, y/n means “Your Name” and y/f/n means “Your friend’s name”. Enjoy. XOXO,  은지

It had been two days since you and your best friend had arrived in Korea for your two-week stay, and it was killing you to wait around the hotel room for your best friend to wake up. Unlike y/f/n, you were an early riser regardless of what time you had hit the hay the night before (2 in the morning, thanks to your friend's love for the nightlife). Now it was almost 10 am, and you were on your phone, searching for the nearest cafe while your bestie was still snoozing.

Checking your appearance in the hotel mirror a final time, you felt a surge of pride in making it all the way to another country without your parents or anyone overly responsible and while looking and feeling somewhat like an adult. You grabbed the notepad from the desk and jotted down a note for your sleeping friend, lest she manage to wake up and find you missing, then set out to find your morning caffeine fix.

Minutes later, you found yourself stepping out into the bright sunshine of Seoul, people bustling by you in all directions, a few staring oddly at the face of the foreigner they saw in front of them. You glanced down at your phone and began following the directions given by your GPS, at the same time plugging your earbuds into your ears to cover the bustling sounds of the street with your favorite music. The rhythmic pattern of your feet hitting the pavement at a leisurely pace, as well as the bright weather and anonymity of being in a foreign land made you feel light and optimistic.

"Today is going to be a great day," you thought to yourself just as the coffee shop you were searching for appeared in your field of vision up ahead. It seemed that you had slept in late enough to miss the morning rush for coffee, but as you stepper inside the cafe, there still seemed to be a handful of business people in their suits on cell phones and laptops, as well as a mother cooing at her small child and a young couple who looked near your age hovered over books and notepads, studying. The aroma of coffee beans found you, and you became lost in its scent.

Scanning the menu board briefly, you decided on what to order, taking a single step toward the counter before colliding unexpectedly with a stranger. The man's plastic cup of iced coffee managed to be flattened between to two colliding bodies, covering both of your shirts with freezing, sticky liquid instantaneously, while the force of the impact threw you off balance, your arms flying out to brace for the impact of the floor. But as if in slow motion, a hand reached out and caught your arm while you were mid-fall, holding you suspended while you collected your senses.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry! Are you alright? I'm so sorry."

The concerned voice seemed familiar to you somehow, but your disoriented and coffee lacking brain couldn't place it. Returning to your previous position of actually standing on your own two feet, you glanced down at your coffee soaked blouse and wondered if it would be worth it to go back to the hotel and change or if you should just throw on your sweater and call it good until you could get the coffee that you trekked all this way for.

"No, it's fine, I wasn't watching where I was going," you began, your voice trailing off as you looked up at the man's face, only to find the answer to your previous question of why that voice seemed so familiar. It was the concerned face of Kim Namjoon.

"Well, this isn't the kind of first impression I like to make," you heard him mutter to himself, shaking his head and giving a look around before reaching for a handful of napkins from a table nearby and practically shoving them at you. He looked up from attempting to mop some of the drink from his own soaked t-shirt to meet your gaze and smile, giving you a glimpse of the dimples that you were so eager to see on his cheeks.

"I can't really help that I'm so clumsy," he said, looking down shyly, his hand wandering to the back of his neck. "But can I make it up to you by buying you a coffee? I'm going to need another one myself," he chuckled and raised an eyebrow in your direction, awaiting your response.

"Um, sure," you replied quietly, still stunned at what was happening. Your phone buzzed in your hand, and you glanced down to see a message from y/f/n flash across the screen above the title of the music that was still streaming through the one earbud that hadn't been knocked out of your ear in the collision. Namjoon glanced over at your phone as you answered the text and the two of you took your place in the line that had formed at the coffee counter.

"You have nice taste in music, by the way," he said, winking and giving you another dimple filled smile as you blushed in response, realizing that he had seen your phone and the fact that “DNA” by BTS was playing in your ear at that moment.

When the two of you reached the counter, you ordered a latte and reached into your bag for your wallet, only to find that the handsome man standing behind you was already placing his order with yours and handing his card over to the cashier. You raised your eyebrows at him in disbelief. Receiving his card back and pocketing it quickly, he merely ushered you along with him to the opposite end of the counter to wait for your drinks.

“What, you didn’t believe me?” he chuckled as his hand released yours from its gentle but firm grip. 

“I just held hands with Kim Namjoon,” your brain practically screamed at you with disbelief. “Y/f/n is never going to believe me.”

“My name is Kim Namjoon, by the way,” He chuckled. “But I’m pretty sure you already knew that.” He stretched his hand out to you for a handshake, and you took it meekly.

“I’m y/n,” you replied shyly. This was entirely not how you had pictured yourself meeting one of your idols. Getting a high five and an autograph at a fan meet someday was what you had mentally prepared for, not having coffee spilled on you by a handsome young man that you knew entirely too much about.

“How long are you in Korea for?” Namjoon asked, leaning against the counter and smirking up at you. It occurred to you that the two of you had switch back and forth between English and Korean several times in just the short conversation so far. You were slightly embarrassed, having come to Korea partially to improve your language fluency.

“Two weeks,” you replied, smiling and trying your best to seem calm. “But I’m hoping to move here for good someday in the future.”

“That’s great,” he replied, suddenly pulling his phone out of his pocket and scrolling through the apps. Moments later, he turned the screen in your direction and offered the phone to you.”Do you use KakaoTalk?” 

You nodded in response and took the phone briefly to enter your Kakao ID before returning Namjoon’s phone to him. You felt your own phone buzz from your pocket, and you took it out to confirm the friend request and respond to yet another text from y/f/n, inquiring about why you were taking so long at the coffee shop and why you had chosen one that was such a long walk from the hotel.

The barista called out your names as she brought forth your latte and Namjoon’s iced coffee and set them on the counter in front of you. The two of you grabbed your drinks and nodded thanks to the worker, looking at each other and slowly drifting away from the counter and toward the door of the cafe. 

“I don’t know what your plans are for the next few days, but I’ve got some time off right now,” Namjoon said sheepishly, the hand not holding his coffee returning to the back of his neck in boyish shyness in the same way it had earlier on. “I’d love to give you  a tour of the city or even take you to dinner if you’d like to go with me?” The tone of his voice and his eyes wandering to your face and then suddenly away from your gaze let you know that he was unsure you would agree to such a thing.

“Of course,” you giggled, the two of you had to be equally nervous about one another at this point. “I have to get back to my friend, y/f/n right now because we were supposed to go explore together today. But I’m sure we could hang out sometime tomorrow?” you said, sending the conversation back into his court. 

“That would be awesome!” he replied, his face lighting up. “I’ll text you,” Namjoon happily waved his phone in response, nearly bumping into a woman that was entering the cafe in his excitement. 

“I’ll see you tomorrow then, Namjoon,” you smiled at him as the two of you exited the building. 

“I can’t wait,” he said, still grinning. He unfolded his sunglasses from off of the collar of his shirt and slid them on his face. You backed away from the shop and gave him a little wave of your hand before turning and smiling to yourself as you began your walk back to the hotel, letting him watch as you walked away. As soon as you had made it around the street corner, you felt your phone buzz in your pocket. Waiting for you was a message from Namjoon.

I miss you already. I can’t wait for tomorrow ^o^

Making a mental note to reply to the text as soon as you got back to the hotel, you swiped over to y/f/n’s number, dialing her and waiting for her to pick up.

“Hello?” 

“Y/f/n, I’m sorry it took me so long to get coffee, but you’re going to want to hear what just happened to me...”

When was the first kiss between the mom´s, that they edit out?

Who knows? We know that in Season 1 when they made out on the couch, the network censored it.  Sherri said she took Teri’s shirt and pulled it out of her pants but they cut that.

Anonymous said:                                                                      That kiss in the promo/sneak peek will most likely be the only kiss we get in the last 3 episodes. I'm not happy with crumbs anymore and I'm pissed that that's all we have gotten in a long time.             

They’ve trained me well because I’ll be happy if they don’t fight.

Anonymous said:                                                                      When you put up the videos for the last 3 episodes will you put them up each night or all together at the end?             

My goal to put them up each night. If I do nothing else, I’ll be doing that. Forgive me if I don’t answer your questions. It’s also the last week of work, lots to do.

Anonymous said:                                                                      Hope Teri and Sherri watch at least one of these eps together, don’t care about any of the other cast. Just want to see them together one last time in the Fosters capacity. Sob!             

We had a good run! We were spoiled.

  Anonymous said:                                                                      Found it slightly lol, Peter Paige saying how proud he was to work for a company that would do the right thing and get rid of Roseanne. Whilst I applaud this, this is the same company that willingly dumped Sherri and Teri for younger models. Ageism alive and well. Not to mention the fact the affect Stef and Lena as a gay couple have had on so many people. - Peter, Bradley and Joanna, you should be so proud of yourselves to be complicit in this decision. What a wonderful company indeed 🙄😜             

Ageism and homophobia. I don’t really care what anyone says. This was about being older and being women and being lesbians. All of it. These people will lick any ass to get ahead. The network should have known to have never hired Roseanne. I have a feeling they’ll soon regret giving these two girls their own show.

Then again it will be Callie based in some capacity to lead us into the worse decision in the world spinoff. Hate the thought of the other characters, instead of being given a good send off,  just being used as plot devices for those two sellouts. Maybe they’ll surprise us and everyone will get a fair amount of screen time, though I doubt it. They have their chosen ones front and center.             

It’s going to be 90% callie 9% mariana. Ugh, i swear I can’t wait till this is over.

Thank you!

I only liked Callie when she was around the moms, particularly Stef and in the early seasons when she was bearable . Otherwise meh! Marianna was the worst character for me in the whole show, spoilt princess.             

that would be a dream come true. i can’t stand to look at them anymore

Anonymous said:                                                                      I wonder at what point they will ask the dumped members of the cast if they want to guest star? Surely it’s already happening considering they start filming in June. They’ve got thirteen episodes so? It must be well planned ahead? By Joanna’s responses it’s a hope and no firmed up members so far. We’ll see I guess. Thanks for this blog bt 

It could be they signed one of them, but I doubt it. It does sound a lot like wishful thinking and I think by now, they should have solidified plans.

Anonymous said:                                                                      Im just have no interest in a twenty smthg drama about two girls finding themselves in the big smoke. That’s the issue for them I think. Take away the anger their decision caused, a lot of fans tuned in for all manner of things. The moms, the family, Brallie, Stef and Callie, Jude etc. All these sections are now gone hence a lot of their core viewership. I’m sure people will watch the first ep but after that it will tail off. They’ll get new viewers I’m sure but will that replace what they had?             

This show will tank, like every one of their fucking shows. Grownish had a built in audience and they lost it all. Freeform only knows how to flush ratings down a toilet.

Anonymous said:                                                                      We’ve had more promo for their spinoff that won’t air till 2019 than we have for the show that made them all. They really didn’t want it to end did they 🙄 Bull as said bfore this has been in their minds for a long time both the creators & Fform. Phasing the moms out of promo, pulling away from the family dynamic, giving Callie long winded storylines... the list goes on. Maybe in the future they’ll realise what they had with a family drama, it was what drew fans in and made the show popular.             

I can’t wait till this show fails. Mind you, it will bomb and Freeform will still renew a second season.

Anonymous said:                                                                      Hi!! I don't have Tumblr anymore but I still follow your blog to find out about The Fosters and Stef & Lena. Um, I just wanted to say thank you for answering all of our questions and sharing your thoughts with us. I hope some day (soonish) you'll get the chance to write some more fics. I know you're super busy with your family, and I really hope you are all doing well!! I'll try not to shoot you too many asks between now and when the show ends. ☺︎             

Thank you! I will! I am doing well. Things are moving with the girls who are now legally free. Just a matter of waiting out the appeal process and hopefully by the end of the year, we can adopt! now, i know why it took Stef and Lena so long with the twins.

Anonymous said:                                                                      The only person I can see saying no to being guests on the spinoff is Teri I feel like Sherri and the boys would accept it but I hope they don't             

I see Noah and Hayden as shoe ins. They have nothing to lose. They are also the least likely to bring in an audience. I don’t see Sherri appearing without Teri.

Anonymous said:                                                                      Happy Stef and Lena fans wised up and weren't fooled by the fake idea of a mamas spinoff even Brallie fans some anyways are following your guys' footsteps and not falling for this obvious baiting in these last 3 episodes. It's just cruel             

Sadly, mostly I see them falling for all of it. I will never put up with crumbs. I know a  lot of fandoms live for the end game. I live for the now game. Show me all of it now!

Photos? Nah, they never took them. We were lucky to have them in the last one since they had no intention of using those pics for promotion.

Yoongi - A Borrowed Hoodie Part 1

This is a Yoongi/reader fic that all came from one scene I planned in my head which I don’t even know if I am going to still put into this fic. 

This ‘you’ is an English ‘97 liner with an ongoing health problem and an adoptive sister who works at Big Hit. 

Enjoy... I hope.

You cursed your sister as you walked into the Big Hit building. She had been working there for a few years now. It had always been a cool fact to tell your friends at school and now uni that your sister worked with idols. You had never once thought it would ever be a bad thing. Until now.

The previous day, your loving older sister, Ji-Young, had come to you, electronically that is, on bended knee. (Basically, she sent you many messages in a row begging you.) She was desperate. Several of her co-workers in the Big Hit make up department had come down with something and they were all off sick. She had told you that she would get you the same rate of pay as a junior artist would usually get despite the fact you were lacking any official training if you would come in even though it was late notice and help them.

You, being the adorable younger sister you were, told her that would be fine. You could miss a couple of lectures to help her out. Catching up wasn’t too much of an issue because you could just borrow your friend’s notes.

As soon as you had agreed, however, your sister revealed something that changed your mind.

The event you were doing make up for was a BTS MV shoot.

You cursed your sister.

Why didn’t she tell you what you were agreeing to before you agreed to it?

You cursed yourself.

Why didn’t you ask what you were agreeing to before you agreed to it?

There was nothing you could do now. You couldn’t let Ji-Young down when she needed you. She was one of the best things in your life and in reality, you would do anything for her. You just might complain more about some things than others.

It wasn’t that you didn’t like BTS.

In fact, it was exactly the opposite that was the problem. You loved BTS.

Having a sister working at Big Hit, you followed all their artists from debut. So you had been a fan of BTS for as long as it was possible to have been a fan of BTS.

About a year previously, your sister had managed to get you discounted tickets to a fan meet. You had been ridiculously excited to go and had talked about nothing else for weeks leading up to the event. Then, on the day, you had an off day. You had an ongoing medical condition that you had been dealing with and would have to deal with for your whole life.

Despite feeling a bit wobbly, you decided to go anyway, choosing to believe that your excitement would pull you through it. Probably not your best idea. When it was your chance to talk to all the guys you had been obsessing over for the past year and a bit, you only managed to speak to three you fainted while moving between Jungkook and Jin. It was ridiculously embarrassing.

Now finding your way to where you were meant to be, following you sister’s detailed instructions on how to navigate the maze of corridors, you couldn’t help but shake slightly with nerves. No matter how ridiculous it was thinking that they might remember you, you couldn’t get the thought out of the back of your mind that they might.

Entering the room your sister had told you to come to, you were greeted by the sight of her rushed off her feet trying to get the make-up area ready. The room was split evenly between hair and make-up, despite the fact that there were six hair stylists and three make-up artists and that was including you.

When Ji-Young spotted you, she sighed in relief.

“Y/N, thank goodness. Could you please help Min-Su get everything ready?”

You nodded and went over to the only other person in the make-up area, who you assumed was Min-Su. She was clearly younger than Ji-Young but seemed to be older than you. However, she also looked completely at a loss of where everything went. You guessed she was probably relatively new there and hadn’t gotten used to how things had to be.

Luckily, Ji-Young was very particular that everything was done in the right way, even when she had been teaching you how to do your own make-up at home. This meant that you knew all the procedures better than most of the make-up artists at Big Hit and definitely, it seemed, better than Min-Su.

She looked even more relieved than Ji-Young had been when you turned up at her side and started laying things out in the right way, moving a few things that she had put in the complete wrong place.

While you were doing that, the robotic movements of laying things out in an order you knew by heart had seemed to remove some of your nerves and you had stopped shaking completely. You almost forgot that you were about to be in the same room as 7 of the people you admired most in the world.

That is, until they walked in.

When the door swung open, your eyes were immediately drawn to the noise and you looked up to see Min Yoongi walking through it.

Faster than you could have said his name, your eyes were back on the task at hand, refusing to look up again as Ji-Young greeted them all.

“Boys, we need you to be patient with us today because we are massively understaffed due to illness. We’re going to need you in make-up first and then once we are finished with you, you can head over to the hair stylists who will then send you onto set. The two older Mr Kims, you are with me and Min-Su. Jimin, you go with Y/N. Thank you for your patience.”

They all chorused a “Yes, Noona,” and did as they were told. The members who had not been assigned a make-up artist yet walked over to the sofas that were at the back of the room.

As Jimin walked up to you, you took a deep breath and tried to remain calm. It seemed Ji-Young had chosen to send you one of the members she knew for sure would not have seen you on the day of the fan meet. You thanked her in your mind. However, you were still nervous because Jimin was one of your favourite members and, to be honest, you would be nervous no matter who she had sent your way.

“Take a seat please, Mr Park.”

You started to work in silence. That seemed like the best way to avoid fangirling over the fact you were so close to one of the idols you loved. You didn’t want to once again embarrass yourself in front of BTS so you chose instead to focus on your work. It helped that you weren’t exactly the most experienced in this field, so you kind of had to focus in order to make sure you got it right. Ji-Young had taught you everything you knew which just meant she would be more annoyed if you messed up now when it mattered most.

Even with the level of focus you were giving your work, you did get slightly distracted by his eyes, and his lips, so you took a little longer than you should have done to finish. By the time you were done with Jimin, your sister was already on her third member, Taehyung, having finished both Namjoon and Hoseok, and Min-Su had finished Seokjin and was just starting with Jungkook. This meant that there was only one member left to be made up. This made it easy to know who you had to work with next without having to interrupt Ji-Young. This was, however, the only good thing about this situation.

The last member was Yoongi. Your bias.

And he was asleep.

Clearly during the time everyone else had been being made up, the sleepy member had taken the opportunity to take up one of the sofas to himself and lay across it. Now every other member was either finished with make-up and on a hair styling desk or still having their make-up done, leaving Yoongi happily napping on the sofa.

You looked around to see if any of the members could help you by waking him up, but seeing they were all occupied, you resigned yourself to the fact that you had to do it. Now the question was how?

Being the fan you were, you knew how much Yoongi liked his sleep. And how little he liked being woken up from his beloved sleep. This is why you were particularly wary to approach him.

You knew, however, that you were doing this for your sister and you therefore had to pull your socks up and get on with it. Hence, you slowly approached the sofa occupied by your bias.

“Mr Min?” you called out, hoping but doubting that he would be awoken by something so small despite the fact he was comfortably sleeping through the noise of the room.

He barely even stirred.

Plan B.

You approached closer, refusing to look at his face because you needed to be professional and this was Min Yoongi and you’d had a crush on him since 2013. Instead, you stared at his shoulder, which you then reached out and shook slightly.

As you touched him, he shook you off and mumbled, “Go away.”

You started to speak, “Mr Min,” about to explain that you needed to do his make-up, but his eyes shot open when he heard your voice. He then made you jump slightly with how quickly he sat up.

“Sorry. I thought you were one of the members.”

Then he walked past you to the make-up chair, the only one free, the one you were using for today.

This was good because it meant you didn’t have to try to form a full sentence yet, but was bad because it meant you had to follow him and then get up in his face, doing his make-up.

As he sat down in the chair, you turned to the desk you were using and grabbed what you needed to work on Yoongi, also gathering yourself to be ready to start despite the nerves in your stomach and the fact that you had started shaking a little again.

When you turned around, you forced yourself to look at Yoongi’s face. You were going to have to get used to it if you were going to successfully do his make-up. He was just so pretty. It wasn’t a surprise that he was this pretty. You had seen his beautiful face many many times before in pictures and videos. You had even seen him in person, albeit from a distance, at the fanmeet you had been to.

But this was up close and personal and you were not ready.

Still shaking, you knew you had to get started. Ji-Young was relying on you.

Millions of fangirls all over the world would do anything to be in the position you had ended up in here. You kind of felt like you were wasting the chance with how nervous you were. You weren’t enjoying this; you were just waiting for it to be over.

As you started applying the primer to his face, Yoongi could feel you shaking. He reached up and loosely grabbed your wrist.

“You don’t feel cold. Are you okay?” He looked genuinely concerned and that made you blush because you knew you were just being silly. He was just a person like anyone else.

But he was still holding your wrist.

Min Yoongi was touching you and as much as you wanted to be professional because your behaviour would reflect on your sister, you were also freaking out.

When you managed to gather yourself enough to be able to speak, which, coincidentally, coincided with the time Yoongi removed his hand from your wrist, you said, “I’m okay, just nervous…” You paused trying to say something that didn’t give away the fact that you were a massive fangirl. “This is the first time I have had to do anyone’s make-up for something anywhere near as big as this.”

His worried face turned into a gummy smile. One you were definitely not at all ready to be this close too. “Don’t worry. You seem to be doing fine.” He exaggeratedly looked over at the other side of the room. “Jimin doesn’t look like a clown. I’m sure you can do just as well with me.”

The reassurances somehow broke through the haze created by the adorable smile being thrown your way to make feel less nervous. One way or another, it seemed to humanise him in your head, finally convincing you of what you had been trying to convince yourself of for a while; he is an actual person much like every other person there is. He might be an idol, but that doesn’t take away the fact that he is also a normal human being with a normal personality and should be treated as such. That thought cemented in your mind, you sent him a little smile and got back to work.

As you worked, Yoongi sent you little smiles every time you took a step back to get a clear view of what you were doing. Despite your heart skipping a beat every time he did it, you managed just about to keep a steady hand and finish what you were doing.

Standing up to head over to the hair stylists when you were done making him up, he said, “Sorry, what was your name again?”

You told him and then your mouth dropped open a little as he bowed and said, “Nice to meet you, I’m Min Yoongi,” and then walked away, gummy smile still present on his stupidly perfect face.

For the next hour or so, you tidied up the area a little bit, but spent most of your time keeping your sister away from Ha-Yun, the most senior hair stylist present. Ji-Young had told you before about the rivalry between hair and make-up at Big Hit but you had not believed her fully until just then.

At one point, Ji-Young sent you upstairs to her desk in the make-up office to pick up a brush that she apparently needed for retouches on the guys in a bit, but you didn’t believe her for one minute. You knew she was just trying to get you out of the room so she could have a go at Ha-Yun without you there to stop her. Having to listen to her today, however, as she was definitely the senior in this situation, you did as you were told.

When you returned, opening the door, you saw all the guys over with the hair stylists, except from Yoongi. He was sitting on the sofa you had woken him up on earlier, but this time he was playing on his phone. The most noticeable thing, however, was the fact that he, his hair mainly, was covered in feathers.

You were just wondering why he would be sitting on the sofa instead of getting his make-up retouched while he waited for a hair desk to come free, when your sister approached you, “Y/N, thank goodness. I need you to retouch Mr Min’s make-up. He says he likes to only have one make-up artist per event. Something about consistency.” She took the brush that she had sent you for out of your hand as she muttered under her breath, “Even though I could have sworn I retouched his make-up last week after Suk-Ja did it.” Then she shooed you off to where he was sitting.

You walked over slowly, convincing yourself that despite the fact he was waiting for you, it was nothing to do with you really. It was actually just a quirk of his that he liked to have the same artist retouch him as did his make-up in the first place. It was an odd request but you were sure other idols had weirder sometimes.

“Mr Min?” you said quietly, still about five metres away from him, but with him not being asleep this time, he heard you and looked up.

There was that irresistible smile again.

“Y/N,” he said, only slightly making you melt into a puddle of liquid fangirl. Then he stood and walked once again over to the desk you were using.

While you prepared briefly, finding it easier to talk to him now, you asked him, “So how did the feathers happen?”

“Two words: pillow fight.”

He laughed and it made you giggle and then you were off. You didn’t stop talking the whole time you were working on him apart from when you were topping up his lips. Now you had gotten past the nerves and the seeing him as an idol thing, he was actually really easy to talk to. He told you all about what the members had been getting up to and everything they had messed up and that got him talking about other times members had messed up on video shoots. It was just a silly conversation but it continued whenever he came back for touch ups.

Joking around with Yoongi actually made the day really fun. You had gotten up too early and you weren’t used to having to work so late either, but the day didn’t feel anywhere near as long as you had been sure it was going to.

When the day was over, you found yourself a little sad that you wouldn’t get to chat to Yoongi anymore. The last time he had come in for retouches, you hadn’t even known it was the last time until after he left so you didn’t get to say goodbye. You were happy to have had such a good day with him though.

It hadn’t escaped Ji-Young’s attention how much laughter had been coming from your station whenever Yoongi was over there either. She teased you about it, saying he must have liked you because he insisted on having only you work with him and she had never seen him laugh that much with anyone other than the other members.

In fact, your sister would not shut up about it over the dinner that she took you out for as thanks for helping her out. You mostly ignored her. You had had fun but you weren’t going to see Yoongi again ever. This day would be no more than a nice thing to think about every time you scrolled past a picture of BTS.

When your friends asked you about the day, they had all known where you were going because you had had to tell them in order for them to agree to take notes in lectures for you, you told them a little about it. You told them about when Jimin sneezed while you were touching up his eyes because of all the feathers in the room and made you smudge a line of eyeliner across his nose. You told them about when Taehyung called you Noona and you had to correct him because you were two years younger than him. You didn’t, however, tell them anything about Yoongi. Those memories were yours and you were keeping them to yourself.

July AO3 Yoonmin readings:

I’ve been a fan of BTS for a very long time but it wasn’t until this summer that i really got into the shipping part of the fandom. I decided to do these posts to keep track of the fics i’ve read and which are my favourites. I handwrote lists for July, August and September and now I’m posting them here in case anyone wants some suggestions. (I edited this post to give more information about the fics and to provide links so that it’s easier to find them for anyone who wants to read them!)

1) When you’re in love all the lines get blurred (*)

Jimin isn't sure what possessed him to lie to his mother and tell her that he had a boyfriend, but now that he's opened the position, he has no choice but to fill it. Yoongi is, apparently, his only option.

My first yoonmin fic. One of my favourite ones without a doubt. It was so good that it made me look for more yoonmin fics and I can’t believe how many I’ve read in a summer! Couldn’t have chosen a better yoonmin fic for my first time lol

2) The 100-Day Love Challenge (*)

For a variety show challenge, Jimin must tell Yoongi every day for 100 days that he loves him.

I love BTS fics which aren’t set in an alternate universe in the sense that they are idols in them too. This is a GREAT example of that. The struggles they go through and how their feelings awake little by little... It made me very emotional and at times it’s very heart fluttering in an angsty way which I love.

3) Beta Tau Sigma (Namjoon/Seokjin, Yoongi/Jimin, a smut scene in ch. 17) (*)

A collection of events occurring within (and without) the walls of the Beta Tau Sigma fraternity house. At Beta Tau Sigma, there are only a few rules: 1) have a declared major in the College of Music; 2) keep your GPA above a 3.4; 3) don't let Taehyung into the liquor cabinet; 4) don't fuck up with Kim Seokjin.

The rest is all fine print.

Namjin is the main pairing, but the Yoonmin in this one is also great. I really like this fic because the BTS members are college students but they are really a big family; I greatly enjoyed the group’s relationship. Also, it was the first time I read a Namjin fic and i liked it a lot. I’ll read more in the future for sure!

4) Home is where the heart is (*)

Yoongi who gets teased by the members because he keeps sneaking into jimin's bed.

I liked seeing the members teasing Yoongi, I loved Jimin scolding them for doing so and the members feeling guilty afterwards. I felt like their relationship and the story was very realistic as if it was something that could actually happen and it would turn out like this.

5) Conflicting Arrangement (side Namjoon/Seokjin, Jungkook/Taehyung) (*)

"Absolutely not," Yoongi deadpanned. "Namjoon-ah. I value you as a friend, and I think I'd even go as far as to say that you're my best friend, but absolutely fucking not."

"You owe me," Namjoon pleaded. "Come on, Yoongi, it's not a big deal."

"Your boyfriend's best friend's best friend needs a fake boyfriend to come out to his family this Chuseok, all the way in fucking Busan." Yoongi repeated drily without pause, making Namjoon wince. He flipped a page of his textbook, picking up his highlighter. "Not a big deal, Namjoon. Amazing."

This has to be my favourite Yoonmin fic right now. The way Yoongi is depicted is one of the best I’ve read in my opinion. I don’t want to give spoilers but there are some scenes that i’ll never forget such as the rap battles, the fights and the way in which Yoongi’s anxiety is described. Also, the Yoongi/Namjoon/Hoseok relationship is so good. That’s how I imagine their friendship would be in real life. Summing up, an absolute must read Yoonmin fic.

6) Act with haste

“I’m a bartender and I have to cut you off after a certain amount because you’re drinking to forget your ex and I end up calling you a cab”

Yoongi is a bartender and Jimin is drunk.

7) Pastel (Yoongi/Jimin, Hoseok/Taehyung) (smut)

Not all gifts come wrapped with a ribbon, but Yoongi leads a pretty charmed life.

Skypecalling.

8) Pick me up, buttercup (Jungkook/Taehyung, Yoongi/Jimin, Namjoon/Seokjin)

AU where your soulmate's first words to you will be tattooed on your wrist when you meet.

Which freakin sucks, because Jungkook's forearm will now forever read "Hey baby, if you were a booger, I'd pick you first."

What the fuck, universe.

This fic is mainly Taekook, but the Yoonmin part is very cute.

9) So Kiss Me

Min Yoongi is stressed out. Park Jimin is stressed out. They're all stressed out.

A.K.A. - the College!AU that nobody asked for.

10) Ringa linga

Best man Yoongi needs to pick up the rings for his best friends' wedding. The problem? The clerk won't hand them over.

Enter lifesaver and fake-fiancé, Jimin.

11) We are just lost stars (*)

It's hard growing up, seeing your imperfections and having to face that you're in the spotlight 24/7, for Jimin it's even harder when you're falling in love with the only person who makes you feel perfect. Someone that probably just sees you as a kid anyways.

(or, that one where Jimin grows up, Yoongi takes notice, and basically all of bangtan ship yoonmin)

Another fic set in BTS universe. There is a conversation between Yoongi and Jimin in which Jimin asks him if he’s had sex before and I swear it made me feel so many things. It makes me wonder how the group approaches these topics in real life when they talk among themselves. Very good.

12) Smile like silver (*)

Yoongi gets a tongue piercing and Jimin just really likes it.

Struggling Jimin who gets angry at Yoongi because he suddenly looks extremely hot wtf and insecure Yoongi trying to lure Jimin in with the help of his best friends Namjoon and Hoseok. SO GOOD.

13) I don’t care if you are not sorry, I forgive you

Park Jimin doesn't understand Min Yoongi, but he wants to.

Bad boy (but actual sweetheart) Yoongi, ice cream parlor, new kid Jimin.

Special mention: 

~I do talk, but only for you (Yoongi/Hoseok) (smut) (*)

There are two irrefutable truths to the world Hoseok lives in. First, everyone has a soulmate. Second, his soulmate will never find him.

fate may tell you who, but you still get to choose how

The first yoonseok fic I’ve read. It’s a soulmate au and Hoseok is mute. Please read it because it’s AWESOME. If you like some angst with a happy ending like I do, do not even think about it, just read it.

(*) my favourite ones.

Summary:

The Town Planning Department is a warzone.

There isn't a moment of peace thanks to the team leaders' rivalry. Jimin and Yoongi truly hate each other.

To make life easier, Jimin hides his omega status. However, nothing can stop his instincts from going into overdrive whenever Yoongi snaps or stares at him threateningly.
