You all had arrived back to the dreaded warehouse. This is where everything had started. As soon as Jin had parked the car he jumped out, skirting around the vehicle to your side. Thinking that he was still happy to see you, you smiled as he opened the door and helped you out. But he had just gently brushed you to the side, his eyes trained on Jungkook. He leaned into the car, grasping two fistfuls of Jungkook’s shirt and yanking him from the vehicle. Stunned, Jungkook let himself get pulled out, his confused gaze searching for you. You grabbed onto Jin’s arm, as he let Jungkook practically fall out of the car, tugging at his sleeve, “W-wait, what are you doing?”

Didn’t Jin understand that Jungkook had been protecting you this whole time? Why was he dragging him all of sudden? One of Jin’s hands released Jungkook’s shirt and the man stood up, tensely waiting for what Jin would do next.

“Go with Yoongi.” Your brother snapped, hand still fisted in Jungkook’s shirt collar while he leaned back into the car to grab Jimin and yank him out at well. JImin stumbled out, looking over at you in confusion. You released your brother, leaning down to grab onto Jungkook’s hand. He wasn’t going to just drag him off to who knows where and expect you to sit quietly with that man who claimed to be Yoongi. Your brother’s eyes passed over your intertwined hands with disgust, his mouth twitching in a scowl.

“Let go of Jeon.” You murmured, trying to uncurl Jin’s fingers from Jungkook’s shirt. Where was he taking him? Your brother suddenly turned his head in your direction, facial expression hardened,

“I said go with Yoongi!” He shouted, jerking his hand away from you. Jungkook moved to the side to avoid having his shirt stretched too much and his hand fell from yours. You helplessly looked to Jin, but your brother was uninterested in your opinion on the matter. He had said to go with Yoongi and you should have done that the moment it was spoken, not dawdle and tug on Jungkook’s arm.

Yoongi had gotten out of the car, but stayed by his door, quietly watching Jin single-handedly drag two men from the backseat. He has heard the Jin was quite strong but had never really watched it first hand. His thoughts lingered more on why Jungkook and Jimin were just letting Jin handle them in that matter. Was it because Jin was more imposing? Or did it have to do with you? His dark eyes watched you flutter about nervously, your hands refusing to let Jungkook go. Why were you glued to his side?

His eyes passed over Jimin’s slouched shoulders. The orange haired man had given up. Yoongi didn’t need to think to know that you steered clear of passive people. Next, he studied Jin. Jin was far from passive; he was relentlessly aggressive. And by the way you were tiptoeing around him, it seemed you stayed away from overly expressive people as well. Lastly, Yoongi’s eyes flickered over Jungkook. The man pensively watched Jin, but by the set of his jaw and straightened back, it was easy to see that Jungkook was waiting for a moment to pounce. Then there was you; who was all over Jungkook. So there was the answer, you needed a balance. Yoongi suddenly spoke up, his low voice managing to shut everyone else up instantly,

“Why don’t you want to come with me?”

Observation over, he finally vocalized the first question that had popped into his mind. He had helped, shouldn’t that have racked up some sort of mutual trust? You were inconsistent, he finalized, and it bothered him.

You looked away from Yoongi, focusing back on Jungkook who was quietly watching you work yourself into a frenzy. Jimin was beside him, arm held in a vice grip by Jin who was glaring at you. Obviously still upset that you were still amongst the three men. Jungkook gently reached out, his large hand cradling your face. You sighed in frustration, why wasn’t Jin letting him go and why wasn’t Jungkook trying to get out of his grip? “This has nothing to do with you. I don’t want to leave Jeon.” you tossed back at Yoongi.

Yoongi’s eyes slid over to Jungkook. You didn’t want to leave him? “Why?” He retorted,“ He doesn’t seem too bothered to leave you.” He observed. Yoongi stepped closer to you, fingers brushing along your elbow before grabbing a hold firmly. It was time to see if you responded well to calculated aggression. “You fight people until they challenge you or actually put their hands on you.” he murmured, secretly please when you tensed under his fingertips, “Then you’re quiet and demure.” He gave your arm a firm tug, nodding when your hands fell from Jungkook, and you relaxed in his grip.

Oh, you were easy.

He drew you back to stand beside him, face tilting down to stare at you. You met his eyes, suddenly feeling very small. Yoongi wasn’t as tall as Jungkook or Jin, but to you, he was fairly tall. His eyes were sedately roaming your face, trying to gauge your reaction. Briefly, he licked his lips before asking, “Do you like being submissive? Is that how Jungkook got you under him?” You yanked your arm from him, taking a step away. Yoongi smiled mysteriously, eyes alight in fascination. He took a step towards you, practically on top of you, “..You like to pretend to be submissive.” He concluded softly, a hand reaches out to you once more only to be pushed away by you. He chuckled softly.

How would you react to spontaneous aggression?

His hand suddenly shot out, gripping your jaw and pulling your face towards his. Jungkook jerked against Jin, but stumbled forward, almost falling over. Jin had already released him, hand grasping out to grab you by the back of your shirt and pull you away from Yoongi. Yoongi easily let you be pulled away, eyes waiting for the results of his test.

You were pulled back against your brother, hands covering your mouth and eyes staring widely at Yoongi who stared back at you inquisitively. “I bet you and Jungkook started something like that,” Yoongi stated smugly. His lips parted in a grin at the blush flourishing on your cheeks, peeking through your fingers. Jin let go of Jimin, crowding in front you along with Jungkook, the both of them pulling your hands away from your face to see what Yoongi had done.

You were unharmed.

The blush decorating your face the only difference in your appearance. Jungkook frowned, “What did he do to you?” He didn’t see anything physically wrong, why did you look surprised? Jin scanned your face, thumb running along your bottom lip, he narrowed his eyes at the slightly scraped skin. You wiped your mouth with the back of your hand and Jungkook gently shook you, “What did he do, Y/N?”

“He..he kissed me, but..” Your blush intensified and Yoongi grinned wider, “He bit me.”

Jin and Jungkook furiously turned back to Yoongi, Jin’s tone silencing Jungkook’s immediately. “Why?” Jin hissed. He had told Yoongi how he only wanted for you to finally go home and live in peace. What was he doing kissing you? Because Jungkook had?

Yoongi glanced at him calmly, “I wanted to see something.” He murmured, “Your little sister is all for herself until someone shows her exactly who’s bigger.” The spontaneous aggression got more immediate results; no wonder Jungkook probably used it often. Yoongi glanced at him, noting that he was glowering back. He still needed to think about your reactions before he could start to decipher Jungkook’s. Yoongi locked gazed with you. He still needed you to submit, “So who’s bigger, Y/N?”

You avoided his gaze, nervously staring at nothing in particular. “You.” Beside you, Jungkook had gone pale, his blank expression focused on Yoongi who was staring back at him. What was the point of all that? Jungkook wasn’t sure what to make of Yoongi’s behavior. Nevermind the fact that he had put his hands and his mouth on you. He thought Yoongi worked behind the scenes, but that last display was as blatant as ever.

Yoongi was challenging him?

Or was he challenging you?

Jungkook already knew he was searching for something, but he was concerned that Yoongi was looking for it a little too closely to you for comfort. He had noticed the man’s eyes following you since he arrived and it took Jungkook a pretty sizable amount of restraint not to say something. It was, after all, Jungkook who had followed Yoongi without much thought. Jimin shifted and Jungkook looked at him oddly, wondering what he thought of the situation. Their gazes met and Jimin must’ve known what he was going to say because he quietly murmured,

“He’s imitating you…to get to her.” His lips curled, brows furrowing, “Jin said he watches and copies to get what he wants… but,” His eyes lifted to your dazed expression, “I don’t know what he wants from Y/N..”

Jin, on the other hand, was stunned silent. Yoongi was his boss, and he knew that something bad was going to happen by the way he was staring at you and Jungkook, but honestly he thought that look was only for Jungkook. He would have never imagined that this entire time Yoongi was staring at his sister. He tried to think back at the last girl Yoongi had ever been with and found himself confused. It was only Choi who had become enamored. Jin couldn’t recall a time where Min Yoongi had stared so intently at a person like right now.

In fact, Jin had never seen Yoongi so aggressive.

Yoongi’s suddenly expressive behavior evaporated at your confession and he had gone back to the elusive contemplating man. Boredly staring at the heaving figure of Jungkook he picked at his thumbnail. The curiosity, for now, was satiated and he found no other reason to interact with you. It was Jungkook’s aggressive nature that had you submitting to him, just like you had to Yoongi when he suddenly pounced on you. He found what he was looking for and had no intention of touching you until you had peaked his interest again.

Clammy hands nudged you back as Jungkook lunged forward to Yoongi, swinging his fist at him. Jimin was shaking his head at you, warning you not to jump in and try to stop the fight. You’d only get hurt. Pulling your arm away from him, distractedly, you watched Jin jump between the two, holding Jungkook back. But even you could see that Jin was struggling to break up the fight; Jungkook was zealous. Yoongi had watched Jin grapple with the other man for a bit, then turned around, heading inside the warehouse. Maybe he did have a little time to observe Jungkook a little more closely. Lightly over his shoulder, he called out for you, “Y/N, let’s go.”

Jungkook turned his head towards you, face set in anger, “Don’t you fucking move.” He hissed. His eyes narrowed dangerously at your hesitant look, “I said don’t move.”

Yoongi mentally applauded himself. Your stance wavered at his light attempt, so if he was truly right about you, you’d be scrambling over if he was more forceful. Yoongi paused, glancing back at you, finger pointing towards his shoes,

“I said, come here.”

Contestshipping Masterpost - Part 5-6 - Disaster of Disguise

Disaster of Disguise (aww so did Drew's masqurade fail and May found out he likes her?)

link: http://watchcartoonsonline.eu/watch/pokemon-advanced-generation-s7e21-disaster-of-disguise/

00:08 I watched sonic X when I was young and this is the person who voiced Sonic... I duno fun fact (Also Drew is voiced by a guy named Bob)

00:40 ya but it isn't

02:02 "hey look" Hey look

02:05 I doubt you did May.

2:13 Drew is thinking up what to do instead of entering the contest

2:19 Drew completly ignores Ash, here Bulbapedia will help me!

At the beginning of the episode, Drew is facing a masked opponent. After being defeated, he runs into Ash and company at the Pokémon Center. He greets May, but completely ignores Ash, Max, and Brock, even when Ash accusingly says "You mean you lost?". Drew then tells May he won't be entering the Contest because he didn't think Roselia would be well enough to battle. May is shocked, but she also seems disappointed she won't be able to see him. When Drew says there is a very strong Coordinator named Phantom she takes him very seriously.

3:17 Oh look May has a 3rd Pokemon, and it's Skitty! (skitty reminds me of Nyan Cat for some reson you know whatI'm calling Skitty Nyan Cat)

May training Nyan Cat is the best thing ever

5:01 I said this before and I'll say it again. Keep your mouth shut

05:13 okay but because of my memories from sonic X I'm just going to imagine sonic there not timmy. It’s funny.

(I had so many stupid things to say about this that I just found so funny but I'm not going to mention them...)

I'm sorry, what? The quote bothers me.

"Dance like a butterfre, sting like a beedrill".

No. Just no.

Also I am kinda going to skip this episode becuase this is a contestshiping post not a "reveiw everything in an episode Drew spent 2 mins in" post.

Disguise Da Limit

Narrater: Spends a minuet talking about the last episode, then makes the theme song go on AND THEN TEAM ROCKET SHOWS UP WHERE IS MAY!

2:38 FINALLY Hi Drew in the audiunce, Bulbapedia help.

A few scenes in this episode shows Drew watching the Contest in the audience. Many wonder why he even came to the Contest because he was not competing in the Contest, and he could have been spending time comforting his badly injured Roselia; yet, he chose to go see May compete

thx Bulbapedia

Tim's dad is Tom.

AND THEN IT SPENDS ANOTHER 3 MINS ON JESSIE

6:12 YES YES MAY FINALLY

6:24 compliments. (Bulbapedia help)

During the episode, Drew is constantly commenting on how much May has improved.

Wow Bulbapedia has everything!

7:08 Bulbapedia?

Whenever something goes wrong, like when Skitty's Blizzard failed, he looked extremely concerned and nervous, but when she was doing well, he looked really happy; almost as if he felt exactly what May was feeling.

You know what I love bulbapedia.

:skips episode becuase all there is is battles and I know May will win becuase I remember this episode:

(I should've tagged every complement he gave to her, but I was too lazy)

19:43 Bulbapedia?

Later, Drew is surprised that May had won, but also shows that he's very happy for her

yay.

Machu Part Two

...continued from Machu Achoo

Friday. Machu Picchu day. I woke up and realized that I set my alarm for the wrong time. I had a whole 10 min to get ready. I was feeling much better thank goodness! I still had a small cough and some sniffles, but nothing that was going to keep me from exploring one of the wonders of the world! We got on a bus that zig-zagged up the mountain to the main entrance of Machu Picchu. We first went on a 2 hour guided tour. The Incas were amazing engineers and architects. They built their structures to withstand earthquakes. 60% of Machu Picchu is the foundation! The buildings were made of huge heavy stones. It took a lot of man power to get the stones to their places. For the important buildings, the rocks were shaped to fit together perfectly and had smooth surfaces. When the guide showed us the type of rock used to carve the stones, I got all nerdy and asked what the hardness of the rock was on the hardness scale. Everyone laughed because it is not a normal question. I actually really wanted to know. Only someone in a science field would think to ask that sort of question. The guide said he would try to find out, but he never told me. I tried to look it up later, but couldn’t find an answer that made sense online. I guess i’ll never know. After the tour, we took a short snack and bathroom break. You have to pay one sole every time you need to go to the bathroom, and there are no bathrooms inside Machu Picchu. If you ever go to Machu Picchu, plan accordingly (especially if you have a tiny bladder). Then we were off to the Sun Gate! It took me 43 minutes and 23 seconds to hike it (yes I timed it) including a few stops to breathe. At the top, it was amazing! I highly recommend loads of sunscreen for this trip. At this point, it was already too late for some of my friends. They were already looking like tomatoes, and it was only noon!

Eating a Cliff bar on a cliff!!

Hiking back down from the Sun Gate was much easier than hiking up, though it was hard on the knees. We heard about another trail that led to an Incan bridge, so we decided to find it. The first part of the hike was very steep, and then it was flat the rest of the way. At one point, there is a little stand. You have to sign in and out of a giant book at the stand. We were confused at first, but then we realized why they were keeping track of people. One side of the path was a huge wall from the mountain, and the other side of the path was a cliff with no handrail. I would not recommend this hike if you are afraid of heights. I am happy to say that I safely signed out of the book.

The people I was with wanted to go do more hiking, but I was starting to feel worn down. It was a lot of moving around after staying in bed all day for 4 days. I chose to sit on a rock by myself for a while, and it was the best decision I could have possibly made! Sitting there with Machu Picchu to my right, mountains all around me, the hot sun beaming, I was able to clear my mind and soak it all in. It was so peaceful. I could have sat there for hours.

The view from my spot.

Eventually, another group of my friends came by and we left Machu Picchu together. Back down the winding road we went. I was surprised by how fast the bus drove. It was fun but terrifying at the same time. After a little break and some mango juice, we got back on the train that brought us up to Machu Picchu town. It was dark this time, so I didn’t get to admire the scenery, but there was plenty of other entertainment. It reminded me of the polar express! Instead of hot chocolate, they served pineapple and passion fruit juice. We also got scrumptious pizza as a snack. Morgan doesn’t like pizza, so I happily ate her slice as well. When I looked out the window, I saw one of the prettiest moons I have seen in a long time. It was shining bright and blue among the stars. The moonlight glimmered on the stream that ran along the tracks. The few clouds in the sky were also blue against the black sky. I wanted to take a picture, but the camera on my phone couldn’t do the sight justice. I wish I was a better painter, so I could paint exactly what I saw. When we got to our new hotel back in Ollantaytambo, I was so ready for bed. I checked the step tracker on my phone, and it said I had walked 12 miles in the hot sun.

The next morning I woke up, ate breakfast with my professor, and went to the market. There were vendors selling backpacks, sweaters made from alpaca, blankets made from alpaca, little trinkets, scarves, and much more! I decided it would be a great idea to get a blanket for hammocking when I get home. I knew I had to approach the situation differently than what I am used to in order to haggle and get the best deal. I walked up and asked, “How much does a blanket cost?” The woman told me 70 soles. I made a frowny face and said, “Agh, too much, I’ll keep looking.” The woman then had a very concerned face and told me, “No no, I will give you a special price, 60 soles.” I then told her that a lady on the other side was also selling her blankets for the same price, and I would keep looking. I was having fun. I had no idea what the other women were selling their blankets for. She then looked me dead in the eye and said, “okay, 55 soles.” That sounded great to me! I picked out the style I liked the most, and off I went. I got the blanket for less than 20 USD.

Then we all got on a bus and drove to a chicha brewery. Chicha is an alcoholic beverage made from fermented corn. This brewery was named the best in all of Cusco. I tried some, because it is legal here, and did not like it very much. It smelled very much like corn. We all learned how to do cheers in Peru. “Arriba, abajo, al centro, al dentro,” which translates to “up, down, to the center, to the inside.” There was another drink which was the same thing but with strawberries mixed in. I liked this one much more. It is considered a lady’s drink after all because it is fruity.

The next stop was a buffet. The food there was amazing! My favorite was chicken with elderberries. After stuffing myself to the brim, Morgan and I went to the yard where there was a big garden, swing, river, and alpacas! We had a great time!

I tried to tell the alpaca what to do, but it did not want to listen to me.

Next stop, Cusco, Cusco. After dropping off our bags at the fancy hotel and being told which streets were unsafe, I went to Papacho’s with a few friends. It is a restaurant that has mac and cheese, or as it says on the menu, mac and chez. I ordered a big milkshake and sweet potato fries. While we waited for our food, we got to color on the place mats!! The milkshake was amazing! Halfway through our meal, music started coming from the Plaza de Armas. There was a parade! We went to watch for a while once we finished and paid for our meal. We noticed that Peruvians never rush you out of their restaurants. They will let you sit and talk until you demand the check. The parade was fun to watch. The dancers had sparkly costumes with puffy shoulders. One of the bands played Despacito, a song that Morgan, Camille, and I are trying to memorize just for fun. This parade was the longest parade I have ever seen! It was never ending! We left before the end. I went home and worked on homework the rest of the night for my chemical engineering class.

This is the picture I drew while waiting for my food.

Having fun!!!

Plaza de Armas during the parade.

The next morning, Morgan, Dana, and I woke up earlier than everyone else to go to church. We went to a cathedral where mass was given by the bishop! It was a more simple church than some that I have seen in Poland. There were giant paintings on the walls with gold foil frames. No photos were allowed. The mass was in Spanish. My favorite part was giving the sign of peace after the Our Father. Instead of saying “Peace be with you,” we said, “a paz.” Translated, it means “to peace.” When we left our seats for communion, we returned to find someone had taken our seats.  It was okay though because it was just about the end of mass.  The church was completely full with many people standing. Thanks to the Spaniards, many Peruvians are catholic.

The three of us in front of the cathedral.

The next thing on the agenda was a tour of the city. Honestly, I did not get much out of it. I was exhausted from the whole trip and being sick. I still had a cough, and Danny kept offering me Ricolas. During the tour, there were more parades going through the town. During the whole month of June, they celebrate Cusco’s independence. Confetti was all over the streets. The tour ended at a big market with fresh bread, fresh cheese, fresh meats, fresh fruits, more alpaca wool clothing, and all things Peruvian. I tried a new exotic fruit. It tastes like a mix of pineapple and mango. I still can’t decide if I liked it or not. Then I also bought myself some fancy pants that I am wearing right now. They are really fun to wear! The rest of the afternoon involved eating an empanada, watching another parade, getting kicked off the grass, and waiting to go to the airport. We flew back to Lima and rode a bus home. It felt like I was hit with a brick when I walked outside and smelled the city air again. The mountain air was so clean. I prefer clean air with hardly enough oxygen to breath over nasty smoggy air any day.

This trip was beautiful in so many ways. It was a real struggle being sick all along the way, but I am glad that I pushed through it. I am sorry for the post being so long, but I don’t want to forget a thing! I would love to go on a trip like this again someday!

It says MTU for Michigan Technological University.

I Want The Headline (Pt. 46)

The prison was only a few blocks from the hospital. A large dark building that took up several city blocks. Jungkook’s eyes passed over the lone tower of the isolation wing as the car drove closer to it. His eyes narrowed, the prison entrance was on the opposite side. “Where are you going?”

You swiveled your head in his direction, curiously peering out his window looking for some sort of entrance sign. Jungkook shifted closer to you, leaning forward in his seat to get a better look at Captain Jeon’s profile. The captain side-eyed him, nodding his head in the direction of the sign they were approaching.

‘Police Entrance: Stay Left for inmate drop offs’

You saw something pass over Jungkook’s face and noticed the way his jaw clenched. The hand resting on the headrest of the seat beside you to keep himself forward tightened it’s grip. A car passed by the right window and you frowned. You all were in the left lane? Captain Jeon made eye contact with you through the rear view window, subtly motioning to Jungkook who was practically leaning into the front seat.

“Jeon.” You called softly. He looked back at you, forcing his face to remain neutral.

“What’s wrong?” For moment you just stared at him. You weren’t exactly sure what to do now. Ignoring the captain’s curious stare you knotted your fingers into Jungkook’s shirt and pulled on it. He slid back in the seat, cautiously watching you. “Are you alright?” He asked softly, dropping his arm around your shoulders. Jungkook studied the way you mirrored his unsure expression.

“Are you alright?” You mimicked. He blinked, licking his lips. As of late, all your responses to him were one word answers, this was the first time in a long time you had spoken more than a few words to him. Taking your wrist in his hands, he toyed with the hospital bracelet still dangling from it. A soft kiss was placed on your temple.

“Later.” He whispered, dark eyes staring at the curious officer in the mirror. He intertwined his fingers with yours.

The car pulled up to a closed gate, a small sentry booth situated off to the side. Jungkook’s grip tightened, his arm pulling you closer. Head pressed into the crook of his neck, you drew in a deep breath.

“I missed you, Jeon.”

His thumb caressed your cheek as he pressed a firm kiss atop your head. “I missed you too.” He echoed. In the front seat, Captain Jeon rolled down his window, sticking his hand out to shake with the sentry.

“Captain! How are you?” The other man asked, gaze flitting to Jungkook glaring at him from the backseat. “Another drop off?”

Turning his head down to yours to hide his sour expression, Jungkook angrily muttered, “I’ll fucking drop him.” Oddly, you chuckled, burying your face into his shirt to muffle the sound. You knew Jungkook had a temper, but the petty way he had grumbled it was too funny. And the way he had said it was even funnier; brows knitted and bottom lip poking out in a pout. It reminded you of when your oldest brother would tease Jin in front of his friends and Jin would poutily try to come up with some sort of sly comeback. At seeing Jin so upset, you often tried to help him, but only succeeded in making your oldest brother and his friends laugh harder; embarrassing Jin even more. Not even your best stick drawings could get Jin to play with you after you did something like that.

“I love you.” You blurted out. Which was true, you loved him. Some part of you felt like it wasn’t the exact way he wanted you to love him, but it was still love. You felt his heartbeat speed up and the feel of it ended up making yours do the same. He shifted his arm, pressing your chest closer to his. Silently, he leaned his head against yours, finger tapping against your shoulder in sync rhythm with your heartbeat. Breathlessly he whispered,

“..I’m glad..because lately I’ve been feeling like I’m the only one who’s trying to make us work.” He admitted softly, “And it’s getting to the point where I don’t remember why I love you…I just know I do.”

He rubbed his head in frustration. Why didn’t he remember? There was your first meeting in the Waiting Room. When you clung to him and his flannel in the hall. The talk about Sochi’s; he remembered the first time you kissed him. The warehouse, Areum, meeting Min Yoongi for the first time..he remembered all of those events, but he couldn’t remember when he first realized he loved you. It was just like, one minute you were there and the next he was ready to put his life on the line for you.

Jungkook drew in a sharp breath, one of his fists raising up to cover his mouth as he blankly stared down at the floor mats. His brows were knitted tightly in concentration and anger. He loved you, he knew this. He didn’t immediately love you though, there was something that happened between you two that had him realizing it. His head was starting to hurt. You had said you loved him first, he was certain of that, but when had he said it back?

“When you took whatever was in that needle.”

“What?”

“That’s when I first realized I loved you. I didn’t confess it to you until later, but that was the exact moment.” You explained, meeting his gaze,“When you, even though you were hurt and strapped to that chair, said you’d take whatever was in that needle and call off Namjoon’s raid or whatever just to protect me. You didn’t have to. And even though keeping me safe put you in so much danger, you still did it without question..but it all started with the needle. I know the exact moment and why.” You quieted. “And I’ll never forget it.” Jungkook looked away from you, pulling his body completely away. He bit his lip harshly, digging his elbows into his knees and holding his head in his hands.

“I’m sorry.” He mumbled. “I’m sorry I can’t remember why.”

Captain Jeon and the sentry had finished their conversation long ago, the sentry already had returned to his booth and opened the gates. The car was currently slowly passing through them, but Captain Jeon was too distracted listening in on you and Jungkook’s conversation. He frowned softly at how Jungkook had turned away from you and curled in on himself.

You blinked back tears; unsure why his response had hurt so much. Hadn’t you decided on Yoongi and spent who-knows-how-long trying to find the perfect way to tell Jungkook? But instead you were blurting out in full detail the exact moment you fell in love with him. Jungkook not knowing why he loved you in the first place was a perfect way out.

But all you wanted now was for him to remember why. He was special to you; more so than anyone else. Whether you were with Yoongi or not, you wanted him to know how you felt. You loved him; romantically or not, you loved him and you knew exactly when and why.

It was completely selfish, but why couldn’t he remember why he loved you?

The car came to a stop, Captain Jeon awkwardly clearing his throat. Jungkook’s head snapped up, his hand immediately opening the door. He stepped out, hurriedly walking in the doors and leaving you behind. You sat still for a few moments, blankly staring at where he had rushed in. “He..he’s not good with expressing himself.” You murmured in response to Captain Jeon’s look of confusion. “..but even so..he’s never…” You cleared your throat, feeling something burn behind your eyes,“He’s never avoided trying to express them to me. He’s always tried, even if it makes no sense- I’ve never-” Your breath hitched,“He’s never walked away from me like that.”

Captain Jeon exited the driver’s seat, soon after opening your door and helping you out. “I’d say give him some time, but you know him better than I do.” He sighed. Patting your shoulder, he guided you to the doors, “Maybe after a visit with his brother he’ll feel better.”

Despite Jungkook being there a few days ago, no one seemed to question or even react to his reappearance. Calmly he had moved to the service desk, fingers curling around the pen sitting atop the sign-in book. You and Captain Jeon waited by the visitor chairs.

“If you need anything, just ask someone around here.” Captain Jeon smiled at you. He wasn’t at ease at the sudden distance between you and Jungkook. Since he had seen you both in the same proximity, you two had been glued together. Now, you stared at anything but Jungkook and he avoided looking back at you. Winking behind Jungkook’s back to try to get a response from you, Captain Jeon added, “And if they tell you no, just tell them Captain Jeon said it was alright.” For emphasis, he plucked his badge off his chest, handing it over to you. Delicately, you took the badge, a bit surprised at the weight it carried. By then Jungkook had finished and he stare suspiciously at the shiny item in your hand, but looked away the moment you raised your head in his direction. “For protection.” Captain Jeon piped up suddenly. “Just looking out for my little sister.” He added lightly.

Jungkook glared at him, stepping to the doors off to the side to the conference room the man at the desk had directed him to, “Don’t ever call her your sister. She already has two brothers.” He hissed. Waiting for the doors to open, Jungkook turned his back to you both and shoved his hands into his pockets. Slowly, the door opened and he hurried inside, completely ignoring you.

Shortly after Jungkook disappeared, Captain Jeon was sending you a strange look. He shrugged lightly, moving towards the same doors Jungkook had gone through. “I’m going to make sure he doesn’t start a riot or something.” he huffed. “There’s a little bench area outside if you want some air. Hopefully this will be quick.” You nodded, but only sat down in one of the plastic chairs of the lobby. Turning the badge over in your hand, your eyes passed over the hospital bracelet.

Inside the confines of the hospital room you felt horrible, too tired and weak to even lift your head, but since you had gotten out you felt much better. You had even laughed. And all that was thanks to Jungkook…who was now questioning why he had wasted so much time doting on you.

You needed a comforting presence.

Tightening your hold on the badge, you cut your gaze to the man at the desk. “Sir?” He looked over at you, surprised to hear you speak. “May..If I name someone, will you tell me if they’re here?” At that he nodded, hands already positioned over the keyboard. “His name is Jaehwa-”

“Ahh him.” The guard grumbled, “That guy is always submitting complaints, 'Oh this blanket is too thin.’ 'The food is terrible’ 'Where’s my cellmate? It’s boring without Yoongi’s funny stories’”

“Yoongi?” You repeated. Yoongi was here too? You would think that with him being a 'boss’, he’d be in federal prison or something; not the local jail. Which you never really thought about before; Yoongi as a mafia boss seemed odd. He was just..Yoongi. Weren’t bosses rough and demanding like Namjoon? You couldn’t even recall a moment you had seen Yoongi lay a hand on someone else. Choi Yoongi; that man fit the boss roll, but Min? You couldn’t picture it. He was too gentle.

“Can I see him?” Standing up quickly you crossed the room to his desk. Taking a deep breath the badge was held out. Hopefully, Captain Jeon’s badge held that much weight over the desk attendant. “May I see Min Yoongi?” You asked softly. Jungkook had been gone for 15 minutes, but you weren’t sure when he was going to come back. You felt that he’d still ignore you once he came back anyway. His realization had hit you hard, but it seemed it hit him just as hard.

The guard at the sign in table turned away from you to tap at the keyboard beside him. You peered at the screen, heart dropping when the bold text of 'Solitary Confinement’ flashed before the screen. Yoongi had spent enough time confined to a room and now he was back in one? The guard, after chancing a glance at the badge once more, quietly overrode the screen and a room number popped up. “Conference room 5C.” He spoke, pointing to a set of double doors on the opposite side of the room as the ones Jungkook had gone through. Sighing in relief, you thanked him and hurried to the door. On the opposite side, a guard led you to the conference room, his steely expression showing nothing as he confirmed that you were there to see Min Yoongi. Timidly, you consented and were seated in the room to wait.

The room was small, with no windows. A cold draft blew in from the vents, the soft rumble of the air pushing through giving some sort of sound to distract yourself from the ringing in your ears. You twisted your hands together, all of a sudden very nervous.

You were going to see Yoongi again.

The fact that he had never admitted to loving you still played in the back of your mind, and warped your memory of him. You weren’t even sure if he liked being around you other than what he was forced to endure in the room. Yes, he had been surprised to see you in the warehouse, but that didn’t mean anything. He might refuse to meet with you, or ignore you once he showed up, but you didn’t focus on that. Just the fact that he was going to be here put you at ease. That alone comforted you.

And distracted you from Jungkook’s sudden distance.

Yoongi stepped into the room alone, his eyes immediately focusing on you. He paused, gaze scanning your face, dropping down to your feet and sweeping back up. He had spent a considerable amount of time alone in a pitch black room. Everything was too bright and too loud here. It had been a long time since he had heard anything other than his own breathing and the soft whir of a camera. Your arrival was so unexpected. Yoongi felt his heart rate spike at the sight of you.

You were actually there.

His emotions went haywire as memories flashed in his mind. Seeing you, he suddenly remember much vividly the sound of your voice and how you felt in his arms. He remember falling asleep with you and waking up to you. He felt too much and it made his chest hurt. His emotions were like a flame wafting over an ocean of gasoline. At first, there was nothing. Then, everything was alit and raging.

And unstoppable.

There was an overwhelming urge to cry tugging behind his eyes, but at the same time he wanted to leave. At his sides, his fingers itched to touch you; it had been too long. Despite all the raging thoughts and feelings, Yoongi only stood there blankly. This whole thing could have been another hallucination. He had hallucinated about you frequently since being put in confinement. He warily eyed you, hesitant to approach. Cutting his gaze to the corners of the room, he searched for a camera somewhere. This had to be set up by the guards; some other ploy to get him to crack. He watched you stare back at him, a soft smile upturning your lips. Reflexively, Yoongi scowled, you weren’t really there. You weren’t there, so if he ignored you, you’d go away like all his other hallucinations.

Standing up on shaky legs, you found yourself rooted to your spot. Yoongi took a small step forward, eyes narrowing. His hallucinations never moved before. Loosening your jaw and trying to come up with something to say, your confidence faltered at his icy silence. He didn’t look particularly happy.

He didn’t have any expression at all.

Contestshipping Masterpost - Part 11 - Rhapsody In Drew!

Rhapsody In Drew! (I'm having high hopes for this episode! all I remember is May wins vs Halrey, looses vs Drew and then Drew looses vs guy with milotick)

For this episode I am skipping battle scenes, which is most of the episode, so this one will be short.

narrator talks for 30 seconds and then a full min of theme song. And now there is a battle! I'm never going to talk >:(

2:31 Drew stands there watching the battle hoping that May will win. Probably thinking about how much damage  Harley did to May making him mad at harley. Also After watching these episodes how to people still say contestshipping isn't canon, and that Drew is just a jerk???

4:13 oh so NOW bulbasoar's petals are hearts!

5:25 hi Drew. Oh you look so sassy right now. May won and beat the guy who tried to ruin her outcome. Drew just looks so sassy right now

11:47 FINALLY WE HAVE FLYGON. Drew got Flygon just so that he could have this battle with May (I'll let bulbapedia explain why this is important and then keep on talking)

When May and Drew start their battle and Drew sends out his Flygon, he says he raised it for this moment. He has never done this with any other character. This means he considers May special, someone he has to do extra for instead of using Flygon in the other rounds and her battle with him.

Also I'm going to bring it up again. all of Drew's pokemon can breed with May's! He just has less so it doesn't go the other way around.

Beuatifly with Masqurain, Flygon, and a Butterfree he doesn't have yet

(I have a headcanon that Drew’s Butterfree is the son of Ash's Butterfree and that pink Butterfree's kid becuase wynuat?)

Bulbasuar and Rosrade

An Absol Drew doesn't have yet with a Glacion May doesn't have yet

18:24 May likes Drew but she doesn't know it yet WHO'S WITH MEH (I'll go more in detail before I post this probably) 19:13 and 19:28 (this reminds of of Spontanios cumbuskin)

20:10 oh so Mr.Flirt finally figured out contestshipping?

20:12 BLUSHING MAY BLUSHING MAY BLUSHING MAY

20:15 MIS MOM SHIPS IT

20:20 back when I saw this episode for the first time I started to Really ship May and Drew! Then I saw Cloud on Archanine and got sad becuase for that episode I thought that they had just messed up Drew's characterand made him look more like an asshole then a boyfriend choice fore May. I stoped watching the series for a few months after that. Wonder what I'll think of that episode now?

20:25 you FINALLY realized that he has been helping you???

and then there is no more contestshipping for the rest of the episode. Anyways I think I'm gong to bed. Oh bulbapedia what do you want? When May and Drew say their goodbyes at the end of the episode, Drew mentions that he'd like to see May again in the next Grand Festival. May then blushingly stares at Drew as he walks away down the beach. She barely seems to acknowledge Ash, Brock, Max, and her mother, all who have come over and are standing right next to her. While May is talking to her friends and family, May's mother, Caroline, interrupts and teases her daughter about Drew. In response, May overreacts and protests in embarrassment.
