Tumblr media Tumblr media
this is a bit late, about 9 months and 300 more followers late to be exact, but i didn't feel right ignoring the milestone and not extending my thank yous to every last person who helped me reach it ♡ i have been creating on tumblr since september 2022, and in that time i've taken 2 hiatuses that were about 5-7 months long each... and you guys stuck around in spite of that. i've always been shocked by the idea that my little part of tumblr was important enough for anyone to wait around for. for that, i thank you <3
Tumblr media
how are we celebrating? my ask box is open: you have three options!
you can send me a make me choose prompt and i will create a gifset based on my choice (for example: black hair joshua or red hair joshua)?
you can send me an idol + era request (any idol except for the ones mentioned on my pin).
you can send a 'favorite' prompt (for example: my favorite bg music video?) and i will create a gifset based on it.
you are more than welcome to send the ask on anonymous; just keep an eye out for my answer! there is no limit on the amount of asks you can send, i only ask that you be patient with me! i have other things to do including a crazy baby to tend to ♡
Tumblr media
now for me to get sappy: shout out to my beloved follow forever.
Tumblr media
thank you to my longtime mutuals, including but not limited to: zaynab @hansjisung my very first mutual. @bandzboy my second mutual and the sweetest soul. @soonhoonsol who i love to see on the dash. @aceofvernons who is soooo normal. @seokmins who i miss dearly and was so kind to me when i first got here. and @wnjunhui , fellow huihui and occasional enabler of my delusions <3
and my lovely friends who i met last year. the jeongjan from twice loveclub, @ajusnice @kiimtaehyung @scouped @twiceland (and zay and mery again LOL) | i had the most fun with you guys last year when life was pretty tough. we shared the greatest laughs and the most ridiculous moments (sos is an english song?) and i am forever appreciative. my kpopcc family, too, including @lesseraive @pantropikos @taetheists @woozification and many, many more.
my newest mutuals, @taeraenomuyeppeo, @chwedout @minkwan @wonboos @bellamyblakru @jnwonwoos @fairyhaos and probably a shit ton more that i can't currently remember.
the people whose presence on this stupid site makes me so happy, @ashmp3 @taeiltual @seungkwan-s @leetaehwan @facethesuns @vcrnons @jeonsupershy @jeonwon-wonwoo @eoieopda @jeongtokkie @97-liners @dinotual @junmail @kimsmingyu and about a dozen others who i'll kick myself for forgetting later.
thank you for sticking around despite my inconsistency. you guys mean so much to me. even if we never talk, or talk very little, know and trust that i appreciate you and that you are so special to me.

Inktober Days 28-31
Day 28: Sparkle
Tumblr media
When people ask me which national park I've worked in is my favorite, I have a diplomatic answer. They're all different! Yellowstone is never boring, Glacier is visually stunning. But Great Smoky Mountains? Great Smokies is home. It was my first park, even before Yellowstone--I was brought on as a summer intern in 2010, and it set the course for my whole career onward.
Where other national parks trade in dramatic grandeur, Great Smokies offers a more intimate beauty. The pale pops of Catawba rhododendron blossoms in the dark forest. The squiggle of a spotted salamander in dewy moss. The first flush of red on the autumn slopes. The Christmas-tree perfume of the balsam firs at high elevation. 
But some of the most special things to me are the fireflies. The secret of the synchronous fireflies has trickled out, and now people flock to see them in late spring, flashing in coordinated laser light shows. My absolute favorites are the blue ghost fireflies, which glow a moonlight-blue, without blinking, and drift a few feet above the ground. On a dark, quiet evening, it's the single most magical sight I've ever seen. So magical I built a whole fantasy system around them in my first novel, Woodwalker.
Day 29: Massive
Tumblr media
There are so many parks whose scale simply can't be appreciated in photos. The yawning chasm of the Grand Canyon. The looming summits of Grand Teton. The plunging valleys of Glacier. And the massive span and height of sequoia trees.
Though this is a purely American tree, I've only experienced them abroad, when I lived in New Zealand. A short walk away from my student flat was a beautiful botanical garden, and I was amazed to find a grove of sequoias growing there. I greeted them like compatriots, foreigners in a faraway land. I visited them often and knew someday I needed to visit their cousins on their home turf. Like my fixation on Olympic National Park, I've frequently found myself plotting the drive from my Rocky Mountain jobs to the closest parks of sequoias and redwoods. I'll get there, one day.
Day 30: Rush
Tumblr media
Yosemite—the rush of history toward the riches of the west, the rush of visitors in the valley, the rush of air through climbers’ ropes, the rush to protect endangered natural spaces. But to me, no homage to Yosemite is complete without rushing water. Plunging waterfalls, rivers foaming with spring melt, frigid banks piled with frazil ice--- this park sings with the power of water.
Day 31: Fire
Tumblr media
We end Inktober 2023 in Hawai‛i Volcanoes National Park, a place where fire, earth, and water all meld together. At first I picked this park simply because it fit the prompt, but as I did some research, I realized how fitting it is to end this month-long celebration of national parks here. Built into the management policies for Hawai‛i Volcanoes is the practice of ho‛okupu, the action of creating growth through chanting or offerings. As Huihui Kanehele-Mossman, Kumu Hula and Executive Director at Edith Kanaka‛ole Foundation, puts it:
“[Ho‛okupu] is not showing gratitude… it’s a recognition between you and the place… that you are present there in order to have an exchange—an equal exchange between you and the place.”
As park rangers, we’re faced with tangible reminders of degradation every day—past, present, and future—in things like the violent history of land theft, the tenacious grip of invasive species, and the looming consequences of climate change. It’s easy for rangers to view both ourselves and the visiting public as interlopers and invaders, capable of only destruction, a force to be managed and mitigated.
But we’re not. That same force that enables us to destroy also enables us to restore, grow, and create. And as Robin Wall Kimmerer discusses in Braiding Sweetgrass, humans shouldn’t consider ourselves mere intruders in natural spaces. We evolved alongside nature. We do belong in it, and it relies on our power and gentleness as much as we rely on it.
Even beyond that, national parks are human-created spaces, with human boundaries, roads, infrastructure, and patterns. We have to be involved with them. We have to view ourselves as an integral part of their wellbeing, an equal partner, and a force for good, or we risk losing them to sheer indifference.
“If you don’t have anything else to give to a place, give your voice.”
-Huihui Kanehele-Mossman
Thanks for traveling along with me on this journey through our national parks! I hope you have an autumn full of peace and purpose!

so i've been a looong time reader of yours and I've absolutely loved all your jun fics but I've never had the proper time to give feedback in an ask but jksjks I read ocean view and GOD
i remember when i first found your blog as a huihui I WAS ECSTATIC. I WAS GENUINELY SHAKING FROM THE LACK OF JUN FICS ON TUMBLR WAS CRIMINAL AND YOUR BLOG WAS LIKE?? EVERYTHING
your writing is so beautiful, it's hard for me to put it into words really, you have such a way with words nmfoerungiu genuinely crying rn. your fics always feel so realistic and i love love love. honestly, i eat it up every single time i see one of your fics they're just so beautiful
( I STILL REMEMBER WHEN AMATEUR HOUR WAS POSTED I HIT THE FLOOR I THINK )
I'm so sorry if this feels like me ranting and if this is uncomfortable. But I just genuinely wanted to say your writing is always so gorgeous. thank you so much for what you write honestly, the talent is unmatched. i don't see people write for jun as much as the other seventeen boys and it always makes me so fucking sad. so it's always nice to see a jun centric blog :((
i hope you know how beautiful your writing is, and I hope you always have the energy and the courage to keep going <3 wishing you the vvv best, sending warm hugs. thank you for sharing your writing!! ( I'm so sorry for the rant again )
this is probably the sweetest ask i've ever received in my 2(?) years writing on tumblr 🥺 don't ever apologize for ranting any author would be so lucky to get an ask like this and it literally made my entire week thank you thank you!!!
honestly that is part of the reason i started writing in the first place because i had all these ideas for jun fics and so i was like damn ok i'll do it myself then ! i've seen way too many blogs that are ot12 writers or that don't write him often bc they don't see him like that or they don't have any ideas for him, and while i totally respect that, i also know huihuis (and myself lol) deserve fics just as much as any other member and i am more than happy to provide <3 i loveee writing for jun and that definitely will not stop anytime soon so as long as i am on tumblr there will be at least one huihui here 🫡 literally i come up with jun fic ideas like every other day and i have to tell my brain "june stop we just wrote 14 jun fics back to back give this one to another member" like the junrot is eternal and unceasing he is on my mind 24/7 i love him so much
i'm so so so happy you liked ocean view!!! it was a very last-minute fic to fill an empty spot for the svthub collab and it was a struggle to write in general but it's done and i'm so happy to share it!! everyone has been so sweet in the reblogs/asks and it makes me so happy i'm so grateful yall liked it and i apologize that it took so long 😭

ur post made me realize how little mr wen junhui shares about himself like? i didnt even know he had poor eyesight wdym he got lasik… people would usually say wonwoo or another member when they think of “private” svteeners but really who is this enigma of a man!!!!! icb much of the info we know about him came from others
on that note i would love to hear more obscure jun facts if you have any more 🤲🏻
haha i feel like he shares more than u might think, there are a lot of little tidbits he shares on his weibo lives and such that mostly circulate among huihuis. which is probably true of every member, it makes sense that ppl would pay a bit closer attention/remember more details about their bias. but also tbf 90% of the things he talks about on lives or in fansigns etc. is literally just food so he can also get away with talking a lot without sharing much so i see where you're coming from DKJHG
but i would be happy to share some more obscure jun facts! (this wasn't intentional but these are all predebut lmao)
when he was young he asked his mom why everyone had flowers that day and his mom explained valentine's day to him. when he realized his mom didn't have a valentine (because she was a single mother) he ran off when his mom wasn't looking and came back with a single rose ;-; (from this article about jun's childhood published from his child acting days, it's a good read with a bunch more obscure jun facts but this is my favorite story from it bc it feels like something out of a drama ;-;)
he learned to cook from his mom and grandma
he did martial arts as a kid bc he wanted to act in wuxia dramas
he also injured himself when doing martial arts at one point and developed spinal tuberculosis and had to get surgery
in highschool he was asked to join the modelling club but he declined
he WAS in the tennis club in highschool and joined it bc there was a tennis anime he thought was cool (i don't think he ever specified which show, it may have also been multiple animes where there were characters who played tennis that inspired him to join)
i probably have more obscure jun facts bouncing around in my head but these are the first ones that came to mind

Hello hello Sky, just wanted to stop by and tell you how comforting your blog is. I will always tell you how much comfort your blog brings me. I just want to camp here all day due to the positive vibes you give. Your theme is just everything! I am always happy to see another huihui even though we have only ever discussed DK and Cheol on your blog. Haha. I don't think I can tell you how much of a smile I have on my face when I see your name, so thank you. Wanted to show some appreciation. Bye
I’m going to cry, this is the nicest ask I’ve ever received, thank you so much 😭 I’m so happy I can be a comforting blog for you, that makes my heart burst with pure joy just knowing that. Ajdjahfjsk please feel free to come here and discuss Jun anytime!! (I have yet to write a jun fic because I want to do him JUSTICE) Your constant kindess and support literally brings a SMILE TO MY FACE (like a big cheesy smile at that too). I appreciate YOU! 🫶

— ☆ haneul’s relationship with svt (hyung line)
Tumblr media
scoups ♡ neulcheol, hancheol
annoyed older brother, annoying younger brother
“haha old man” “you are like three months younger than me”
seungcheol forgets that haneul isn’t in the maknae line at times because of how much he has to keep him under control
“kang haneul, stop it” “i will bite all of your fingers off right now.”
haneul will always find a way to somehow annoy seungcheol
insists that he’s a better rapper than cheol and sadly svt takes haneul’s side because they’re just annoying like that LOLOL
on the inside we know seungcheol loves haneul! hugging him even if haneul is grossed out, eating at restaurants together, etc.
Tumblr media
jeonghan ♡ 2han
partners in crime
cheaters
“no jeonghan did not cheat! it was never in the rules!” “yeah exactly! what cheating are you talking about!”
do not put them in a room alone together
they’re always holding hands!
they also like to team up together. whenever they’re together, the members just prepare for the absolute chaos that’s gonna happen
they are very close. very very close
“jeonghan, are you wearing haneul’s shirt?” “no this is mine” “yeah that’s his shirt” *the shirt is haneul’s and they both know that*
Tumblr media
joshua ♡ hanshua, neulshua
soulmates
“yo joshhhh!” “yo neullll!”
matching clothes, matching jewelry, matching items
they also like to go out together and jokingly call each other pet names
haneul is a “sunday morning agenda supporter”
haneul, jeonghan, and joshua are like an evil trio that make fun of seungcheol together
haneul is very affectionate around joshua and enjoys his company, literally gets sulky when shua doesn’t pay attention to him
“aww is hannie mad?” “go away i am going to punch you”
very popular among carats!
Tumblr media
jun ♡ juneul, hanhui
sunshine and sunshine protector, maybe even father and son?
haneul is so fond of jun. jun is his BABY
HE IS ALWAYS SMILING WHEN JUN IS AROUND
“MY JUNNIE!!” “MY HANEUL!!!!”
haneul spoils jun a lot
“junnie do you want this?” “oh su-“ “here you go 🥰”
haneul calls jun “junnie” so much to the point where he forgets to call him jun or junhui
kang haneul is the number one huihui i’m afraid
also very popular among carats<3
Tumblr media
hoshi ♡ hoshneul, neulshi(?)
besties
haneul fully supports the horanghae agenda. he has become one with hoshi
“hoshi, horanghae!” “hyung, neulranghae!”
when haneul is with hoshi, he is so loud oh my
loud introverts when they are together
haneul likes to get tiger merch for him to support the hoshi tiger agenda. he has bought many plushies for him
jokingly starts singing random duets together (especially during gose)
haneul can literally do nothing and hoshi starts cackling
“WHAT ARE YOU LAUGHING AT 😨” *hoshi manic laughter*
Tumblr media
wonwoo ♡ woneul
brothers
they’re more like chill brothers that just grew up with each other and didn’t mind instead of siblings that fight all the time
but when they do bicker it’s so funny 😭
“hyung did you eat my food i was saving when i literally told you to not take it” “yeah” “what” “what” *starts slapping each other*
wonwoo’s number one hype man!
“our jeon wonwoo! so hot!”
wonwoo got haneul into games and haneul became obsessed
“hey wonnie.. what are you reading” “a book abou-“ “nerd”
LMAO but overall they are a very underrated pairing!
Tumblr media
woozi ♡ neulhoon
best friends
haneul likes to keep jihoon company while he’s in his studio
likes to write lyrics together
“haneul it’s oddly suspicious on how you’re so good at writing love songs…” “because i’m thinking of you *winks*” “never do that again”
they like to tease each other a lot, especially on gose
“did you know that haneul hyung is like a cat when he’s with me?” “you literally cannot say anything, you are the exact same, lee jihoon.”
haneul was actually a bit scared of jihoon during their training eras, but they warmed up to each other easily!
super underrated pairing. literal crumbs.
Tumblr media
— haneul’s masterlist hyung line maknae line
pls ignore how purple the gifs look i literally used the same filter as my masterlist + profile edits

2 with huihui!!!! w cute headbands pls 😩😩😩
Tumblr media
A/N: going to Disney after school used to keep my alive throughout the school year sigh
Pairing: Fushiguro Megumi x reader
Word count: 797
2. Disney dates where you are still in your uniforms
Tumblr media
Kugisaki Nobara had put going to Tokyo Disneyland at the top of her list for things she must do while she was there. She had planned the matching outfits in her head, and if that didn’t work out then she would take wearing uniforms too.
After all, what high school girl wouldn’t like Disney?
But if there was a reason why she ended up forcing a reluctant Itadori Yuuji to go with her instead of the girl squad she had hoped for, it was because the number of girls in Jujutsu Tech was not nearly enough to form a squad.
“Can you believe that Maki san said that she wasn’t interested in coming?” Kugisaki groaned, pulling Itadori by the arm through the crowd, “She is a Tokyo native but she had never been to Disney for even once! That’s a waste!”.
The heavy handbag (Kugisaki’s handbag) slung onto his arm looked rather ridiculous as the much tinier Kugisaki yanked him to keep walking. Itadori sighed, biting his tongue on how he wasn’t even asked if he was interested to come or not.
The sunlight was at its worst when they got to the park, hitting right at an angle where he couldn’t hide from the burning sun no matter where he turned to. It was a Friday so naturally, the attractions were all crowded with people, with a good portion of each queue being out of the shades. He was sweating profusely under the high collar of his uniform, his hoodie soaked with sweat as it stuck to his skin.
He had so much respect for people who do this willingly, because he was already on the brink of giving up.
“If we go from here,” Kugisaki did not look nearly as bothered even with her stockings and her equally stuffy uniform, holding the map in one hand as she walked, “we can get to the other side of the park from the stores— wait…” Itadori jerked forward when she halted to a stop, suddenly pulling him to the side by his jacket.
Squeezing her eyes to focus, she gasped, “Oh my god…”
Completely lost as to what she was looking at, Itadori crouched down so that he was at her eye level and followed the direction of her gaze. “What?”
She grabbed his head and turned it to the side. Itadori’s lips fell into an o-shape when he finally saw what got her so shocked.
“No wonder why he said he was busy,” Kugisaki mused.
Through the green-tinted glasses, there stood Fushiguro Megumi who had no idea that he was being watched. You were rummaging through the rack of headbands with your back towards the window while he waited silently, looking very well-behaved as he nodded promptly each time you held a new one out to show him. He bent forward slightly each time you brought the ears out, letting you did as you wish when you pushed his hair down and tugged the large ears onto his head. His blank expression seemed out of place with the cartoonish accessory on his head but he still let you tried on each headband on him. They could not see you, but they could tell when you were laughing even without looking at your face from his fond expression. The corners of his lips always tugged up slightly when you took the headband off of him, ruffling his messed hair to fluff up where the band had pressed down before you turned your attention back to the racks.
They were never aware if Fushiguro was a Disney guy, but he just looked so happy and content.
“Let’s go,” Itadori was starting to feel invasive, tapping the girl in front of him on the shoulder.
“Sure,” Kugisaki replied. They were about to leave their hiding spot when she suddenly smirked, and pulled her phone out. She sniggered when she discretely tilted her phone towards the shop, “can’t miss the sight of Fushiguro in mouse ears.”
-
Fushiguro Megumi didn’t know why his classmates suddenly looked at him with such big smiles when he got to class the next day.
“Fushiguro,” Itadori sighed as he sat on Fushiguro’s desk with one leg, patting the latter on his back as he shook his head, “you’re such a good guy.”
Kugisaki crossed her legs, leaning on her elbow as she nodded, “You proved me wrong.”
“Huh?” Fushiguro said, pursing his eyebrows together in confusion and irritation, “what are you two on about?”
His face exploded in redness when he saw what was on Kugisaki’s screen.
“Delete this,” he gritted, loosening his collar with his index finger as the heat spread to his neck.
“But why?” Itadori groaned.
“Yeah! It’s cute,” Kugisaki nodded wildly, “but I sent this to (y/n) earlier so…”
“Huh?!”

Hi , can u do pentagon's reaction when they are doing sex with their wife and suddenly their son / daughter come in to their bedroom bcs they had a nightmare ? I think it would be funny lol ..
A/N: Absolutely! Let’s see how this goes.
PTG when their kids have a nightmare and they were doing the do 
Tumblr media
Jinho:
With your wrist pinned above your head and husband pounding into you, it was hard to hear anything but the both of you. Jinho whispered in your ear, “I think Mina would love, a little sibling. Is that what you want love? Another baby.” His words nearly take you over the edge until you hear crying. “J-Jinho, wait. I think she’s up.” Your husband stops his movements and hears the same thing. “Is she in the room?” He asked, pulling out of you and turning around. Low and behold stood your 3 year old daughter. “Fuck.” Jinho mumbled. You hit his arm and began speaking to your child with open arms. “Mina, what’s wrong baby?” She walked over for you to pick her up. “I had a bad dream. There was loud noises. I went to the noise and its here.” You pout your bottom lip at her. “It’s okay princess, let’s get you back comfy. Go to your table and I’ll heat you up some milk.” She nodded and went to her table. Jinho looked at you and started speaking but you cut him off. “Absolutely not.” Now it’s Jinho’s turn to pout. “She’s going to your mom’s next week.”
Hongseok:
Seok was very sure he locked the door. So when your 5 year old twins busted in as Hongseok fucked you in the mirror with the camera on, he felt terrible. Immediately He covered you and yelled at the boys not to look. The twins turned around as Hongseok got everything situated. “Okay, Daddy’s sorry for yelling, you can come in now.” He says and the boys came in and hugged you both. “Why are you two up at 3 am?” You asked stroking the younger of the two’s head. “Haneul had a bad dream then scared me too.” Hyunmin said cuddling into your side. “Can we sleep with you please?” Haneul asked with puppy dog eyes, (like his father.) Hongseok nods and tucks them in between you both before telling them a story he made up on the spot.
Hui/Hwitaek:
After a long hard day at work, Hui just wanted to endulge in you. Anywhere, anytime. Being able to take you on the kitchen counter was more than enough for him. When your son walked in with his protective blanket, you know something wasn’t right. Thankfully, he wasn’t looking completely so you began to push off Hui and fix yourselves just in time. “Jisung?” Hwitaek addressed his son and picked him up. Surprisingly, this made you son cry more as he held on dearly to his father. “Talk to me Sungie.” Your husband coddled Jisung. “I miss you daddy, please dont go.” This of course confused Hui. “I think you had a bad dream. I’m not going anywhere. Let’s go to bed” He says and pats your sons back.
Changgu/Yeoone:
Changgu literally just put the kids to sleep. But at the same time he couldn’t keep his hands off of you. The second your bedroom door shut, he ripped off your clothes and began pleasuring you with mouth. Just as you neared our climax, there was a small knock on your door. Quickly you tapped on his head to inform him of this. Changgu sighed before throwing the blanket over your private bits and opening the door. There stood your youngest child with the biggest tears you’ve seen in your life. “I sleep with you please daddy?” She says wiping her eyes. “Absolutely.”
Shinwon:
Surprisingly enough this was your 4th round at it and it was 5 am. You bounced on Shinwon as he tightly grasped your hips. “Fuck, you ride me so well.” He mumbled against your neck. You began to scratch at his chest but then felt a little dip in your bed. Neither of you thought too much about it until you heard a soft sniffle. Both of your attention turned to the 3 year old laying on her side facing away from the two of you. Panic rose in the two of your eyes as you both looked at each other but you moved calmly. Quietly and slowly getting off the bed to put on your under clothes at minimum before sliding back into the bed. When you went to ask what was going on, she already was soundly asleep. You and Shinwon decided not to prompt her on it but join her in sleep.
Yanan:
He finally came home after being on tour and doing shows and you really missed him. Every night leading up to this one, you promised that the day would be all about him. Yanan sat in the chair as you worked your oral magic on him with ice cubes in your mouth. His sensitivity was severely high, so high in fact that his other senses were heightened and he actually heard your 5 year old son come close to the door. “Xiaohui is coming.” He warns you and you immediately pop up as he fixed his pants. Not a second later, your son knocks on the door and you let him in. “Monsters aren’t real, right?” He asks immediately. Yanan chuckles a bit and you shoot him a look. “No HuiHui, but if you want, I can still check the room for you.” You say and push the stray hairs out of your son’s hair. “Please.” He asks and holds on to your wrist.
Yuto:
You both were in the shower getting clean but Yuto looked a little too good under the water. He noticed you staring and started flexing a bit for you. After some teasing and messing around, he began to fuck you against the shower wall. “Come for me babe.” He whispers in your ear and you do just that. In that moment there were 3 loud bangs on the bathroom door. Normally you would be afraid it was an intruder but it was your 7 year old daughter. “What’s wrong Natsumi?” Yuto asked drying off and throwing on his basketball shorts. “Naoki is having a nightmare and keeps talking about some big bug and I can’t sleep.” This wasn’t the first time your son had a sleeptalking nightmare. “Okay, we’ll be there in a minute.” You responded through the door. Once you both were dressed, you went to your sons side with a glass of warm milk.
Kino/Hyunggu:
Hyunggu had you pinned against the couch. Your legs completely spread apart as he rocked his hips into yours. Well explaining how he was a father of 3. “Are you gonna give me a daughter love?” You nodded your head agreeing to anything because, well...he was fucking you so well. His head now buried into your neck. “Dad?” Your oldest asked from behind the couch coming from his room. Kino panicked and sat up to face his child who had dried tears. “Hyunwoo what are you doing up?” He asked nervous. “I had a bad dream..Why are you naked on the couch?” Your 7 year old son asked genuinely concerned. “Don’t worry about it, I’ll be there with you in a minute.” Kino responded. “Also where’s-” “Now.”
Wooseok;
It was one of the many nights that you both had pre-planned. The 4 year old should be sleep by 9, wine at 10 and 11? It was time to ‘double your pleasure’. Wooseok held your legs around his head and you moaned around his shaft as he rapidly flicked the tip of his tongue on your sensitive bits. When he began fucking you with his tongue, without thinking, you made attempts to deepthroat him. Wooseok began to growl a bit before spreading you open a bit more. When you both least expected it, the door busted open and there stood your child, sobbing the hardest since he was an infant. Immediately, Wooseok threw you off and pulled up his pants. “Jinwoo?” The child nodded his head. “I had a bad dream.” Seok pouted and looked at you, who was slightly more dressed now. “Can we talk about the bad dreams Daddy?” Jinwoo asked. Wooseok nodded and ushered the child to the kitchen where he fed him food Yanan cooked for your husband’s birthday.

2020 year end greetings.
Tumblr media
disclaimer: this is going to be very long ( ˶ ❛ ꁞ ❛ ˶ ), but that's how much gratitude i have and so much more of love.
2020. ah, this year was a very emotional journey for me and how i wish i could sing jessi's gucci all throughout. however, that was not the case. tumblr helped me run away from all those irl miseries. these people made me feel at home.
this skz writing blog has been existing from the last few days of september and it came to life when i was losing motivation to write on my main (which i closed down because stray kids made me like writing back again) and it's stayed since then. you guys have stayed since then. grateful, a one hundred times and more.

When Chinggis Khan, ruling over the whole world, conquered the many lands, he let each follow its own customs. Among all these alien peoples only the Huihui say "we do not eat Mongol food". (The Emperor replied): "By the aid of Heaven, we have pacified you, you are our slaves, yet you do not eat our food or drink. How can this be right?". He thereupon made them eat.

Hey June !!
So, we need to talk...
Tumblr media
You're making Jun become more and more my bias everyday. (Rip Kwannie) I don't know if it's the way you write him or just how you describe him but I'm becoming more of a Huihui little by little everytime you post
Anyways I had a little question for you... I just wanted to know : What pushed you to share your stories with us all in the first place? And HOW do you make them so good everytime?
Like always I send you all my love and support !💕😊
Tumblr media
you are the sweetest omg that makes me so happy!! my job is to convert the world into huihuis one fic at a time 🥹 at the risk of sounding parasocial as hell, i just love him and he makes me so happy to write about so i have to be a little bit delusional about him at all times aksgjdhfs
it was @onlymingyus who encouraged me to post my writing! i've been writing since i was a little kid and i've always wanted to work with books, and my dream is to work in the publishing industry as a literary agent or an editor, so my own writing is more of a side hobby. on tumblr i started as a silent reader and then eventually made my fic recs blog @junhui-recs and started talking to people like mars and the lovely members of svthub, and i was like well why not post my stuff too? then it took me a while to warm up to writing smut bc it wasn't what i was used to (and still isn't tbh, it's a struggle to write it sometimes) but it's so rewarding to share it with everyone and get to talk to other writers and carats :)
and i have no idea asgkdjfhs i honestly just write things that i like to read so it's catered to my own tastes lmao but i'm so so glad other ppl like to read them too 💓 it's so satisfying when i open tumblr looking for something very specific to read and i can open my own masterlist and find exactly what i imagined in my brain hehe. from what i've noticed my best fics are ones i've written when i was super emotional so maybe that's something? like if i'm feeling generally bored or unenthusiastic then my fics tend to be meh. i feel like it's super obvious bc when i feel bad about my fics it shows in my writing, so i try not to write when i'm not in a good place because i want my fics to be something i enjoy looking back on instead of cringing at myself 😭 i have a lot of fics in my google drive that will never ever see the light of day bc i cringe so hard at who i was when i wrote them lmao

how do you look at Jun and see a fuckboy ksksksksks I just don’t understand he’s literally so adorable and ornery
it's baffling to me too djfkfj
but if you want a genuine answer for how i think that happened though i think it was in part pledis characterizing him as a "handsome guy" and partly bc jun was a LOT quieter back then, like he actually admitted recently that he didn't talk much when they first debuted bc he was afraid of saying something wrong ;-;
like i said in my tags, i don't think his personality was all that different back then, he had moments of cuteness and moments of self-praise. but bc he didn't talk as much generally, it was easier to brush aside/not focus on some things. and like now we see jun's self-praise as endearing and part of his cuteness, but i think back in the day it was easy to pair the self love with his handsome image and assume a confident and almost arrogant character. and then the cuteness was seen either as a secondary aspect or was ignored to fit the narrative
and then of course those traits got exaggerated more and more which tends to happen with fandom in general. and this definitely happened with other members too, but i think of SVT, jun's case might be the most extreme (? if that's the right word to use). not just bc the image he had among the fandom contrasted so much w his personality (bc i think that's pretty common) but mostly bc of how long and widespread that image lasted
like others might have a different perception, but from my perspective, when i joined the fandom in 2017 that image was still very much alive. it wasn't until 2018 with CYZJ and SVT club that i saw that image start to be challenged widely in the fandom. and honestly i don't think it was until 2020 (with 2020 gose especially) that his cute image completely overtook/erased his sort of fuckboy image
like from 2018-2019 his cute image was definitely building so if you became a carat at that time you might not be that familiar with his old image, but it was definitely still present in the fandom. but from my memory i swear 2020 was the first time I saw people, including non-huihuis consistently introduce jun as the "funny or cute member" as opposed to "the handsome member" or even something more neutral like "one of the chinese members"
also u know those posts ppl make about their bias where they're frustrated that others don't see them as complex human beings? the ones that are formatted something like: "guys [member] isn't just [x trait], they're also [other traits]". i swear to god i did not see huihui's start off posts like that saying "guys jun isn't just the funny/cute member" until 2020. before that it was always something like, "guys jun isn't just the handsome member"
and the first time I saw it I was SO confused bc i was like??? but don't we WANT jun to be seen as the funny/cute member? like that's a side of him so many ppl haven't seen or paid attention to for YEARS we should be celebrating the fact ppl are finally seeing him this way. but it really has become his main image now DHFKFJ (which i still think is a good thing, at least compared to the alternative)
didn't mean to ramble so much again but tbh the more i think about it the more wild it is to me that this whole thing happened. like it kind of feels like a fever dream esp when i think about the fact that a lot of this happened relatively recently, but you wouldn't know it at all if you just joined the fandom in the last 2 or even 3 years

Curious Cat: describing SVT personalities
J: kind and selfless to a fault, willing to sacrifice himself if it means letting the ppl he cares about flourish. he's very shy, yet at the same time, very easily excitable. he's a child at heart, but he'll only open up to ppl he is closed to. he clings to his members, seeking affection, playing pranks on them as a way to show his affection toward them. childish & clingy, but incredibly intelligent and clever. he's faced a lot of hardships, but the fact that he always holds a positive attitude is amazing. he's not greedy nor takes things for granted, he knows how to appreciate what he has, but constantly aims to ameliorate himself. he forces himself to be confident bc it helps him believe in himself in order to keep going. he's very humble about himself, but will throw a parade for his members. non-huihuis often see him as a weirdo, but i see it as him finally being comfortable enough to show us his lovable and eccentric quirks. overall, junnie is an adorable and sweet kid, who loves his members and triggers people's motherly instincts 😆 (god, i love him so much)
HS: spazzy but intense. we all know how he gets when he's excited and having fun lol. he's among the moodmakers, the one always ready to cheer you on and offer to help you. he is very kind and generous, and yes, spazzy lol. on the flip side, when it comes time to work, he is INTENSE. he's hard on himself AND his members. he knows when to stop goofing and get serious. he may be a little clueless when it comes to most things, but he's far from dumb. super passionate and determined.
WW: the hot nerd jk 😂 idk how it's possible for someone to be such a perfect blend of: confidence, intelligence, kindness, and playfulness. (not to say that the others are shallow FAR FROM IT), but wonu is just so deep? in everything he does, he puts in so much thought, carefully choosing his words and actions. he's the cool kid that gets cooler as you spend time with him. he tends to be on the quieter side (when not having fun with the rest of them), but he knows how to take charge and be assertive when he needs to. the way he cares for his members isn't obvious as some others, but it's there, subtle yet significant. something else i really appreciate from him is the amount of thoughtfulness he puts into something he knows is important--not necessarily for himself, but for others. like how he took the time to learn flower language bc fans gave him flowers, or how he continuously wore the bracelet that jun's mom gave 96z. and his determination and sheer willpower. god, that clip from HTR. he was ready to collapse, yet didn't allow himself to. the fact he was able to push forward and finish the show speaks volumes of his sense of responsibility and determination. *sigh* jeon wonu, you are the perfect man
WZ: tough marshmallow lol. bc he's strict, but also super soft and sweet! haha. if WW comes across as closed off at first sight, then WZ is basically a hermit lol. he's very shy, but he's grown to be confident and proud of what he's accomplished. of course there are still fears and worries, but he's by no means hesitant or indecisive when it comes to what he wants from his music. passionate and serious, but still sweet and caring. a man of few words, but many melodies and poems~
T8: very goal-orientated and ambitious. a realistic, but still able to dream and create beautiful art pieces that require imagination. a romantic. kind and sweet, but not overtly emotional. down to earth and practical. (the same can be said for wonhoon too but) not someone to condone BS lol. protective of his members. won't hesitate to snap back if there is injustice or unfairness. despite the serious attitude, a real loving kid.
MG: mr. perfect, with a slice of clumsiness jk 😂 a soft boy. the kind of friend you can count on. reliable and pleasant, friendly, outgoing. can get huffy at times, but it never lasts long. emotional. he just has A LOT of feels all the time about a lot of things. despite being pretty much perfect, he still strives to better himself, never letting his achievements get to his head. his clumsiness isn't limited to breaking/dropping things. some of the things he says sometimes does come across as a little tactless, but it's never with bad intentions. he's an all around GOOD BOY. very soft and gentle.
DK: the kindest soul~ most ppl see him as a little ditzy, and he does tend to be clueless and silly, but he has such a big heart. and a very good moodmaker! it's not for nothing that he's our sunshine! hahah. but he's so hardworking, too. and also super emotional. if MG channels his emotions through speeches and writing, then DK just lets his emotions flow out haha. it's raw and honest. not one to pretend or put on airs. what you see is what you get. an honest and kind boy :D
SK: sassy lol. he is such a delight tbh. one of the brightest spots in the universe. not only is he smart, he quick on his feet and can turn any situation around. sure, he nags and sasses his members, but he loves them so much??? also king at reading the mood in a room. king of entertainment. king of moodmakers. he can be loud and confident and funny and lead an entire show. but on the other hand, he is very sensitive and ALSO emotional. yes, he cries a lot lol, but he's also more likely to lash out when he's mad (which is actually hilarious to see ngl). among svt, he probably takes care of their image as idols the most lol.
VN: (anyone who comes to me with "VN stoner" comments will get smacked). he is a sweet and caring kid, mischievous at times, but doesn't have a bad bone in his entire body. yes, he's spacey, but he is true to himself and what he wants. he doesn't bend for trends or anybody's opinion, and i honestly find that admirable. even more so than josh, he is very mellow. he is much more of the listening type, but afterward, he will talk and give you his honest opinions. he doesn't mince words. very honest and true. also great supporter, even when he doesn't quite understand lol. while he seems pretty mature, the fact that he's still much a baby when it comes to everyday life is really cute.
DN: a very mature and independent young man. in a way, i think he's quite similar to Hao, with how he is very ambitious and strives to do/learn more and more, to hone in his skills. very passionate, too. he is very responsible and capable of taking the lead, which he does when it comes to dancing (only second to HS). he acts like a hyung lol (and you can see it pretty clearly in the way he and jun interact). i think he has an easier time being the maknae nowadays lol. a reliable young man full of passion!
oh, man. this is a huge essay 😅 i'm sorry it's so long! and i'm probably forgetting a bunch of details for each member, so pls don't get mad at me 🙏😭 these are just my own personal thoughts about each of them, even if they're lacking. all in all, we are very lucky to have 13 wonderful, kind, and talented young men.
ahhh thank you, my dear! please take care and stay safe, too! hopefully this is satisfactory 😅
(i should have ch. 17 out in a few days. thank you for the wait!) xoxoxo

Learning ancestry signifiers in China
Kublai Khan called both foreign Jews and Muslims in China Huihui when he forced them to stop halal and kosher methods of preparing food:[16]
"Among all the [subject] alien peoples only the Hui-hui say "we do not eat Mongol food". [Cinggis Qa’an replied:] "By the aid of heaven we have pacified you; you are our slaves. Yet you do not eat our food or drink. How can this be right?" He thereupon made them eat. "If you slaughter sheep, you will be considered guilty of a crime." He issued a regulation to that effect ... [In 1279/1280 under Qubilai] all the Muslims say: "if someone else slaughters [the animal] we do not eat". Because the poor people are upset by this, from now on, Musuluman [Muslim] Huihui and Zhuhu [Jewish] Huihui, no matter who kills [the animal] will eat [it] and must cease slaughtering sheep themselves, and cease the rite of circumcision."
The Chinese called Muslims, Jews and Christians in ancient times by the same name, Huihui. Christians were called "Hui who abstain from animals without the cloven foot", Muslims were called "Hui who abstain from pork", Jews were called "Hui who extract the sinews". Huihui is presently used almost exclusively for Muslims, but Jews were still called Lan mao Huihui which means "Blue cap Huihui".
Jews and Muslims in China shared the same name for synagogue and mosque, which were both called Qingzhen Si ("temple of purity and truth") from the thirteenth century. Synagogues and mosques were also known as Libai Si ("temple of worship"). The Kaifeng Jews were nicknamed Teaou kin jiao (挑筋教, "extract sinew religion"). A tablet indicated that Judaism was once known as Yih-tsze-lo-nee-keaou (一赐乐业教, "Israelitish religion") and the synagogue known as Yih-tsze lo née leen ("Israelitish temple"), but this fell from use.[17]
The widespread and rather generic application of the name Huihui in Ming China was attested to by foreign visitors as well. Matteo Ricci, the first Jesuit to reach Beijing(1598), noted that "Saracens are everywhere in evidence . . . their thousands of families are scattered about in nearly every province"[18] Ricci noted that the term Huihuior Hui was applied by Chinese not only to "Saracens" (Muslims) but also to Chinese Jews and supposedly even to Christians.[19] In fact, when the reclusive Wanli Emperor first saw a picture of Ricci and Diego de Pantoja, he supposedly exclaimed, "Hoei, hoei. It is quite evident that they are Saracens", and had to be told by a eunuch that they actually weren't, "because they ate pork"
Tumblr media
In the late 16th century, Western cartography was introduced to China by Matteo Ricci, who produced the Kunyu Wanguo Quantu, China's first world map, in 1602. The Wanli Emperor, who commissioned Ricci's map, subsequently ordered Ricci's colleagues Diego de Pantoja and Sabatino de Ursis to produce a book explaining the geography of the new countries shown; their work was eventually edited, compiled and revised by Giulio Aleni. In 1623, the book was finally published by Yang Tingyun in Hangzhou, and three years later was later reissued in a revised edition in Fujian.[3][4]

A 1610 Chinese portrait of Ricci
No comment!! Clearly semitic aspect of the Italian, Mediterranean subject. 
Most scholars agree that a Jewish community has existed in Kaifeng since the Northern Song Dynasty (960–1127), though some date their arrival to the Tang Dynasty (618–907), or earlier.[2] Kaifeng, then the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, was a cosmopolitan city on a branch of the Silk Road. 
It is surmised that a small community of Sephardic Jews, most likely from Persia or India, or perhaps fleeing the Crusades, arrived either overland or by a sea route, and settled in the city, building a synagogue in 1163.[3]
Tumblr media
Sepharad- Al-Andalus = Land of the Vandals and Goths in Iberian Peninsula in a Chinese map.
During the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644), a Ming emperor conferred eight surnames upon the Jews, by which they are identifiable today: Ai, Shi, Gao, Gan, Jin, Li, Zhang, and Zhao. By the beginning of the 20th century, one of these Kaifeng clans, the Zhang, had largely converted to Islam.[4]
The Jews who managed the Kaifeng synagogue were called "mullahs".[when?] A catastrophic flood in 1642 destroyed the synagogue, and considerable efforts were made to save the scriptures. One man of the Gao clan, Gao Xuan, dove repeatedly into the flooded synagogue to rescue what he could, and afterward all seven clans helped restore and rewrite the 13 scrolls.[5] Floods and fire repeatedly destroyed the books of the Kaifeng synagogue;[when?] they obtained some from Ningxia and Ningbo to replace them, and another Hebrew Torah scroll was bought from a Muslim in Ning-keang-chow in Shen-se (Shanxi), who acquired it from a dying Jew at Canton.[when?][6]
The existence of Jews in China was unknown to Europeans until 1605, when Matteo Ricci, then established in Beijing, was visited by a Jew from Kaifeng, who had come to Beijing to take examinations for his jinshi degree. According to his account in De Christiana expeditione apud Sinas,[7][8] his visitor, named Ai Tian (Ai T'ien; 艾田), explained that he worshipped one God. It is recorded that when he saw a Christian image of Mary with Jesus, he believed it to be a picture of Rebecca with Esau or Jacob. Ai said that many other Jews resided in Kaifeng; they had a splendid synagogue (礼拜寺 libai si) and possessed a great number of written materials and books.
