Tav memes part 3/?

4, and 40 w/ Daughters of Destiny for the fanfic writer meme?

#4: How many fic ideas are you nurturing right now? Care to share one of them?

I have a bunch of Demon Slayer xOC stories in my head. A few Jujutsu Kaisen fics, too, and some of the MHA ideas I've mentioned here but have never posted. I recently started watching One Piece and have some ideas, but I need to finish the series (a monumental task) before working on any of them. And of course I really need to work on my Cowboy Bebop and Pokemon fics...

Obviously I still have some older YYH stories I still need to finish, both on my Star Charter account and on fics I started under another name. I find myself preoccupied by them rather than concocting new YYH ideas. Once I finish all of those, I'm thinking I might stop writing for YYH, unless something new strikes me. I always want to be a part of the fandom, but... I can't keep starting stuff and not completing it!

LC's gotta get finished first, before anything else.

#40: Write an alternative ending to [insert fic title] (or just the summary of one). - Daughters of Destiny requested here

I'm not sure about an alternate ending since I haven't really written all of Not Quite Kagome's story. And since Daughters of Destiny was kind of a prologue to NQKag's story, its end is really more like a beginning? But here's the general vibe of how a story all about Not Quite Kagome would go, if that works for you.

Basically the dynamic between NQKag and Inuyasha would be super different in this story. They wouldn't be romantically interested in each other; NQKag knows her sister, who lived the life of Not Quite Kikyo, was into Inuyasha, and NQKag wouldn't want to encroach on that relationship. Plus, as an identical twin, in her past life she was often frustrated to be compared to her sister, so getting her sister's "leftovers" as a love interest in her new life is just plain gross and uncomfy. She'd resent being compared to Kikyo even more than canon!Kagome since she's already had too much of that kind of thing in her past life.

NQKag and Inuyasha, therefore, would basically become bros. They'd be a buddy comedy duo who bicker a lot and have more of a sibling relationship, and they bond over their shared love for Kikyo and their respective angst for what she's become and the roles they played in that. Each of them wants to seek out Not Quite Kikyo for their own reasons: Inuyasha for closure and to take care of a person he loved, and NQKag to lay her sister to rest and end her torment. They'd search for the jewel shards and try to find a way to lay NQKikyo to rest together.

The "sit boy" thing would also play out super differently. I have the scene already written! One day I'll share it, along with her meeting Miroku (she shuts down his pervy behaviors FAST). I'm thinking of making a snippets collection with random bits from NQKagome's story in it, but I'm still workshopping a title. Let me know if that sounds interesting to any of you.

I will admit I'm a SessKag shipper, so that would get set up somewhere along the way. NQKagome would open him up and challenge his perceptions of humanity. Would try my damndest not to turn her into a Manic Pixie Dream Girl to his Depressive Demon Nightmare Boy, although "Literal Ray of Sunshine dates Grumpy Rage Monster" is a favored ship dynamic for me, so...

I'm not entirely sure how her story would end, tbh. Part of me wants her to save NQKikyo by giving her a new life she can finally live in peace and with her own identity, but also there's something poetic in just laying her to rest after centuries of torment. But I also don't just want to kill someone who deserves more than she was given, y'know? It'd be a big bummer, and as I age, I find that I enjoy bummer endings less and less. Optimism in such a dark world can be truly subversive.

IDK if this was what you were really after when you asked for #40, but I hope this was interesting to read about, at least!

someone already posted suhyun's entire episode with onew eeeeeeee i'm so excited! i'll be adding commentary to this post for the next hour if i have anything to say lol

-jinki so cute.... suhyun so cute.......

-after akmu's album came out suhyun sent an akmu merch package to a bunch of ppl she likes and she said jinki's reaction made her the happiest because he filmed a v excited unboxing video for her and sent a lot of pics of him wearing it. and he says that he wears the t-shirt and shorts set a lot and uses the bag too in his daily life nowadays. he even showed u to film that day wearing the akmu merch and was surprised his stylist had an outfit prepared for him and that it's a viewable radio not sound only

-i'm regularly amazed at how camera shy and humble jinki is when he's been the leader of one of the country's top bgs for a decade and a half he's wildly famous but does not act like it at all. he says he's the kind of person that doesn't like being the focus but just wants some ppl to be interested in him on occasion and suhyun agreed that that's what he's like. and esp after the military he's v unused to speaking on broadcast and cameras.

-they like each other so much.... suhyun says her first impression of him was of a chewy milk candy and her impression was correct, and that jinki is the kindest person she has ever met in her life. jinki replies that he got a first impression that suhyun is a little cold but after talking to her realized that she's very smart and very professional and very caring and has a lot of leadership skill. and suhyun said that she's never really had people say that to her because she works mostly with her brother who's very in his own head.

-suhyun says that she thought she was used to doing shows and working closely with people then saying goodbye but she found that she genuinely missed the sea of hope cast more than usual and jinki was one of the members she missed the most and she realized that they had become genuinely close. and jinki replied that he had a similar experience but also during filming he kept feeling the urge to help her and do random nice things for her when he didn't have to and that he wants to maintain this relationship as it is. he said that he's the kind that's a little reluctant when he a schedule but when the offer came for the radio show guest spot he was excited and said "of course i'll do it!" and suhyun said that her staff was so surprised he said yes and were excited because he doesn't do this kind of thing often.

-before the whole cast met jinki texted suhyun to ask what songs they should sing together and turns out they had v different ideas on what to sing. jinki says that suhyun has no limit to what she can sing but he himself does and that he has a set of songs that he can sing flexibly and well (sad ballads, older songs) but hadn't heard of any of the newer music suhyun suggested

-the staff wrote a super cute skit for them to act out it's so cute 😭😭😭 and it's a loooong script but both suhyun and jinki had long radio show careers and had to do those kinds of skits on the spot all the time and usually submissions. also the staff tried to make a gif/meme happen by putting super cutesy slang into some of jinki's lines but it's so not how he speaks he just changed it but it made the script slightly not make sense.

-they played jinki's main song from midnight sun as the next track and talked about how suhyun went to see it after meeting him once. it was the first filming for sea of hope and suhyun was making small talk like asked him what he's doing lately and he talked about the musical and turns out suhyun is a fan of the movie it's an adaptation of and he invited her to watch the musical. idk how to translate how funny this is by korean social norms tho it makes no sense that she would go see his musical right after they first met there's no reason for that but suhyun just wanted to see it so he got her tickets.

-wait jinki has literally only done 1 interview about his musical at ALL it's wild that suhyun has a whole corner for this i rly appreciate it!! i loved midnight sun i had an amazing time watching it and i love jinki's character haram

question: what kind of person is haram?

jinki: to me, haram is a very innocent/earnest person that knows a lot but isn't pretentious about it, and cputs a lot of care even into his facial expressions when listening to other people speak. and that when there's a surprise or a shock it's usually something he's already considered. and that's how i feel like i am as well, i was able to act in the role very freely and intuitively.

-this is ADORABLE suhyun says that she loved
