[vlive 210522] Seri’s Seritonin 🥝🐱

9pm kst

italics = english; seri answering questions!

the vlive starts with seri logging on and waving

she’s playing new rules in the background and staying quiet for the first two minutes

“moa! how are you all?”

she smiles and reads through the comments

she reads a few out loud and sees a few comments asking her to say i love you in different languages, to which she complies to

she turns off her music first and fixes herself in her chair

“bet you guys are wondering why i’m live today, huh? we’ll get to that in a bit. for now, let’s answer questions”

she looks through the comments carefully until she reads one out loud

Seriiiiiii! 5 Beomgyus or 5-year-old Beomgyu?

she laughs at this

“maybe a five year old bammie. he always makes a big deal of being older than me by a few months, so it would be good pay back”

she then pulls out her phone and scrolls through it before turning it towards the screen. it was a picture of beomgyu as a kid

“see this? he sent this to our groupchat the other day. tiny gyu is cute”

how are youuuuuu?

she claps her hands together and smiles at the live

“i’m doing great, thank you! i’ve been practicing harder, and i feel pretty good”

she scrolls through the comments again and takes a sip of her drink. she lightly mixes her drink around and places it back down

“you guys should try peach tea. it’s a godsend. oh, what’s this?”

shall we go on a date?

“you didn’t turn up at our last date”

she pouted a little and laughed

“i waited at the rooftop for a while, but you didn’t show up! but i guess we can go again because you’re moa”

she shifts a little and shakes her head amusedly at her own words

“do i sound like gyu?”

Hi Seri! I have a couple questions 😊 What has been your favorite era music wise and style wise? What hair style/color do you want to try? What's your current favorite song? What are you looking forward to most?

her eyes widened a little before she looks up trying to come up with answers to the series of questions

“oh, wow, i guess you could say i really liked our songs from the minisode album, but my favorite title track is run away for sure. actually, i take that back. i like the songs on dream chapter magic the most! in terms of style... dream chapter magic as well! i really like new rules’ styling especially”

a small smile makes its way to her face as she’s about to answer the last question from that comment

“right now, i’m really looking forward to our new album, and i hope you’ll like it as well! so far, the tracks are amazing!”

any plans for a comeback with the royals?

“i don’t know” she laughs and looks off camera “what do you think?”

yoonmi’s giggle can be heard while seri just laughed

“you exposed me! anyway, we’ll see when the three of us get an opportunity again” “you guys heard yoonmi”

seri takes the live and points it to the side, revealing the magenta-haired girl peacefully sitting in the dance studio near her while working on something on her laptop

“yoonmi is working on school stuff even if she just released a song yesterday” “responsibilities”

Seri baby are you aware that Seri sounds like berry? Therefore you are now berry Seri or Seri Berry 🤔

“oh, that’s cute! seri berry... i love it! i’m a berry now! i can replace strawberries, i don’t like strawberries”

she wrinkled her nose at the thought of the red berries as the sound of a chair moving came up. seri looked off camera and waved to, supposedly, yoonmi

“yoonmi has a meeting right now, so she’s off. anyway, back to our live”

Hiya Seri how are you liking the new building? What do you think has changed the most about you since you became an idol? And out of the members who do you think has changed most since you debuted?

“the new building is actually the best thing ever, i swear! there’s a lot of space, and the facilities are all high quality! honestly, i’m the only txt member who doesn’t get lost, so it’s pretty funny when the others have to ask for my help to walk around”

she then pressed her lips into a tight line while thinking about her next answer

“since becoming an idol... i think i became more confident. the others tell me this a lot. they say every comeback my stage presence gets better, and i look more comfortable? i also became a better dancer for sure. not the best yet, but i’m working on it. also maybe kai? first of all, he’s gotten way taller now. second, he’s been more mature. yes, he’s still our baby, but he handles things a lot more maturely now. sometimes he acts like he’s older than me as well”

hi bestieeeeeee! what do you think you’d be doing if you weren’t an idol?

“hey, bestie! musical theatre for sure!”

seri immediately perked up at this. she jumped back in her seat a little with the biggest grin while remembering her experiences

“i loved it back in school! honestly, my parents were pretty supportive about my involvement in theatre and my little brother kinda brags to his friends that his sister goes on stages to perform. it’s kinda cute”

would you consider acting? or maybe starring in a musical?

“oh for sure if i were given the chance!”

you dance amazingly! your artist of the month video with studio choom was absolutely perfect!!!!

“oh my god”

she covered her face and groaned before pulling out her phone and looking for the video on youtube. before pressing play, she looked back to the camera

“thank you, but i’m a little embarrassed about this. i wore red lipstick on stage for the first time after debut, and i showed a side of me that’s pretty different…”

she pressed play and watched the video, cringing at herself. it took a whole 20 seconds before she gave up and hid her phone behind her

“nope. nevermind, i can’t watch that. thank you, i’m glad you enjoyed it”

thoughts on the people you’re being shipped with? 👀

she burst into laughter upon reading this

“ah, yes. shipping. i see you guys on stan twitter with your little edits and headcanons and aus! honestly, it’s amusing. apparently most of you ship me with gyu and seungmin? and a few other people, too?”

she was quiet for a while like thinking about who moas shipped her with. she shook her head with and began talking again

“gyu... well, bammie’s my best friend, and i love him a lot. it’s been us from the very beginning, so i like to think we’ll be as close as ever until the end”

“seungmin is the bane of my existence”

she laughed at this before waving her hand

“kidding! he’s actually really nice, and i love hanging out with him, it just so happens our friendship is based on bickering. we do support each other though. seungmin, if you see this, you did well on love poem”

she then lit up as if just remembering something

“some of you guys ship me with chaeryoung! interesting considering you all see me as ryujin’s sibling, but please, i’m not worthy of the queen herself. i love chae with all my heart honestly she’s such a sweet child”

her phone buzzed and she glanced at it a little bit before turning back to the live

“perfect timing because hyunsuk just messaged me and some special ship mentions are hyunsuk and jeno oppa. i think it’s because i hang out with hyunsuk’s little siblings a lot. but jeno oppa? we just met earlier this year, it’s a little funny how apparently a lot of people ship us when we haven’t really shown our friendship much”

she typed something one her phone before chuckling and shutting it off once again. she looked through the comments until she found the topic she was looking for

What’s up with you and Dino? 👀👀👀

“ah, this. this brings me to the reason i went live. recently, you guys have seen me and dino oppa hanging out, right? well, we’re not dating. i wanted it to be a surprise, but he’s helping me with something for my birthday, and i agreed to do something with him for their youtube as well”

her phone rang, and she laughed before picking it up and putting it on speaker

“hello? you’re on speaker” “seri-yah! how dare you deny our relationship?” “oh? you’re watching?” “look up, stupid. i’m standing by the door”

she looked off camera and laughed

“yah! oppa, what are you doing here?” “miya told me you were gonna talk about the scandal, so i thought why not come early?”

dino appears next to seri in a mask and a hat. he nudged seri over to the side so they could both be centered on screen, making her raise her eyebrow at him

“meet my new dance partner” dino points towards seri whose eyes widen as soon as he said that

“they don’t know yet!” “you said we were working on two things together!” “but they didn’t know one of them is dance!” “might as well tell them so we can clear up this rumor before i get attacked by moas”

she sighed at him

“i’d get attacked by carats. anyway, fine. dino oppa’s helping me with a song, and he’s making me dance with him for a video. you can look forward to this in july”

dino adjusted his hat and leaned forward a little

“no need to panic, we’re not in a romantic relationship. she’s too tall for me”

“... you’re literally taller than me though?” “not by that much. if you wear heels, we’d be the same height, and i don’t think i’m up for that”

she playfully rolled her eyes

“looks like i’ve discussed what needed to be cleared up now. i’m single. single.” “yes, they get the point” “oh, would you just go already?”

she was pretending to push him away while he laughed at her failed attempts. he moved off camera but stays in the room

“no way, we’ve got to work the choreography out today”

“this is gonna be a while,” she muttered before smiling at the live once again “well, time for me to go. i’ve got a lot of work to do to be on par with a member of seventeen’s performance team”

dino’s groaning could be heard from the side

“this again?”

she laughed

“bye moa! hopefully that cleared things up, and hopefully you enjoyed this little tmi session”

hi! hope you're doing well♡ there was something i wanted to ask you about. i don't stan a lot of groups but you stan a lot of groups right? from what i know(which is not much so correct me if i'm wrong), if you discover a group and you like them, you watch all of their videos and they become a group you stan or even end up being one of your faves. and then you discover another group and watch their videos and fall in love with them. this way you discover a lot of groups and never run out of content. my sister is worried that when she finishes watching all videos of the group she ults and decides to watch videos of another group that she's interested in to spend her time, they'll become her new ult and when she's done watching their videos and decides to watch another groups videos they'll become her ult and so on. she thinks that if she watches videos of a group in her free time for a certain period, they'll be all she thinks about and they're bound to become her new ult. she's afraid that she won't love her favorite group as much as the other group she watches. because her favorite group used to be someone else before and she never imagined that she'd love any other group as much as them but it happened and she thinks it'll will happen again everytime she decides to learn about another group. she doesn't want another group to be her favorite and to stop loving her ult any less than she does now. you stan so many groups and you're constantly trying to learn about more groups. is this what happens to you? what's your experience with the groups you stan and your ults?

thank you and sorry for this really long and weird message 😅💖

hey !! this is such an interesting message, thank u for bringing it to me. everyone is going to be different when it comes to getting into groups and figuring out relationships to them, but i can tell you what my experience has been like. i'll put it under the cut though since i'm sure it'll get long !

i have only been a kpop fan for like a year and a half now, and when i first got into it, like a lot of people it was through BTS. i hadn't thought i'd dive into other groups because i was like who has time when there is SO much content ??? but when i came here to tumblr i was seeing a lot of txt at the time and they caught my interest with the blue hour aesthetic. i fell in love with them and knew that something was different for me with them than what i had with bangtan, so like you described, that cycle started and i watched everything and they became my favorite group. there were also other groups that i got into more casually but still watched a lot of content for at the same time, like cix and enhypen. i think i was more like ... concerned earlier on about taking on too many groups in the beginning because i also worried they would ALL end up my favorites and i'd never have enough time for all of them, all the content is overwhelming. but the more groups i've gotten into, the more i can kind of tell right away whether they'll be one of my favorites or not. sometimes a group really just clicks with you and you want to know everything about them, but i find that still doesn't always mean i'll ult them. like i really enjoy watching content for and keeping up with wei, to1, e'last, etc but they aren't ult groups for me. even with txt, i'll always consider them one of my favorite groups but i don't watch all of their content anymore and their more recent comebacks haven't connected with me the way blue hour did. sometimes i do get kind of sad because they were what got me into creating content, they helped me really make my community here, and i will always adore the boys. but i think it's okay for things to ebb and flow with your faves because we do get SO much content and new music all the time, not everything is going to resonate with you every time. only you can decide who your ults are and there's no criteria for like ... justifying it. treasure is my FAVORITE group and i can consistently say that, even after a year of waiting for a comeback, they have stayed that. even though i've found new groups that i love and have become invested in and have also become some of my favorites, like ab6ix and golcha, i still love treasure the most. they just are so special to me and i think you can tell when a group feels like they are meant for you. so for your sister i think if a group is really something special to her, it won't matter which other groups she discovers and falls in love with. it's okay to have multiple favorites and to go through periods of time where you don't keep up as well or just aren't as connected to all of them. i hope that this all makes sense and isn't too all over the place. i don't know if i answered your questions haha please feel free to come back and let me know if you want to talk about any of this more! it's really interesting! <3

#being a multi is both overwhelming and rewarding haha but i guess the most important thing i'd drive home #is that there are no rules and we all get to decide how we define our own relationships to being a fan <3 #erimail #mail from: anonymous friend!#long post

BTS scenario → you as TXT’s older sister.

pairing: bts x reader ; txt x sister!reader fandom: bts ; txt warnings: language genre: fluff ; crack word count: 1.7k+

a/n: suuuuch a guilty pleasure of mine to write stuff like that so thank you for requesting it bb! I hope you like it ♥

kim seokjin

Jin didn't have a lot of time for going out with friends anymore, unfortunately.

Even dinner was nowadays a luxury he could rarely afford, that's how little time he had on his hands.

But with TXT having debuted, Jin found himself more often than not spending a few hours with them at dinner, even if it was just a snack bar close by. What mattered the most was that he didn’t have to eat alone.

Soobin and him had formed quite a friendship over the last weeks. And tonight, the topic of siblings finally came up.

“My oldest sister is really talented. She's such a good dancer, you know? I used to train with her a lot before I auditioned.”

“Ah, really? You should introduce her to me, I could learn a few things from her,” Jin had chuckled.

The conversation had gone into such depths that Soobin actually really ended up giving Jin your number and Jin, after having had a few drinks too many, ended up texting you.

And the look on his face when he walked into the dance practice room three days later and found you standing there with a big smile on your face, because he had completely forgotten that he had invited you over to help him with his dancing.

“So.. are you ready, Kim Seokjin?”

He gulped down hard.

That should be answer enough.

min yoongi

Yoongi was on his way up to the boss, currently scrolling through some app on his phone when you entered the elevator.

He immediately stood up straighter, something about you intimidated him greatly. And that wasn’t something that he could admit often.

Maybe it was your angry look or the fact that you looked hot as fuck, but whatever it was, he wasn't so cool anymore.

“You look angry,” he remarked.

“I am angry,” you replied, not pressing any other floor. Oh boy, Bang PD had a big storm coming, “People in this industry think they can use young artists for their own benefit. It's disgusting.”

“It's the idol industry, love.”

But calling you ‘love’ wasn't a good move. Not when you were already on the edge of smacking someone.

You turned around and killed him with one look only, Yoongi quickly bowing a little as an apology.

“My brother worked so hard for this,” you said once you had turned around again, your voice now a little less audible, “He shouldn't be treated like this.”

Right! Yoongi thought he had seen you somewhere before, you were the sister of one of the TXT members! He didn't remember whose sister, but he knew you were a family member!

“Are you.. a lawyer then?”

“Yes.”

“Do you have a card or something? You seem like you know what you're doing and I could use a lawyer like you.”

Smooth, Min Yoongi. Fucking smooth. Because you gave him that card, thinking he was only interested in your abilities, when the reality was that he was interested in much more than that.

jung hoseok

Hoseok had only recently started following TXT's private Instagram accounts.

Now, as he was on set and waiting for his make-up and hair to be done, he decided to look through who they were following, just out of curiosity.

And that's when he stumbled across your account.

The childhood pictures made him assume that you were the sister.. the older sister. The sister that grew up to be very very pretty and, from the looks of it, quite successful on her own.

“Do you think I'm too old to just randomly message a girl on Instagram?” Hoseok asked Jimin, who just snorted.

“Hyung.. you're Jung Hoseok. It doesn't matter what age you are, whoever it is that you're messaging will be over the moon.”

Maybe Jimin had over exaggerated a little, because you didn't respond to his message for an entire week.

Hoseok completely forgot that he even messaged you in the first place when you finally replied: “Hey, sorry. I wasn't sure if you were a fake account, so I had to ask my brother first. But how are you?”

Ah.. so that's why the TXT members weren't looking so fondly at him anymore. He wasn't sure if he'd be too happy if one of them messaged his older sister either.

kim namjoon

Namjoon would never purposefully listen in on a private conversation, but even though Kai was trying his hardest to talk quietly, Namjoon could still hear every word.

“I don't care, (Y/N), I don't care that you're my older sister, there is no way I'm going to walk up to my senior and ask him for his number just so I can give it to you! Do you know how embarrassing that is?!”

That made Namjoon chuckle and press himself closer against the wall. Now he wanted to know who you two were talking about.

“No, no, no! Don't tell mom, I'm..- ugh, you're so mean, this is exactly why Lea is my favorite sister and not you.”

Namjoon thought this was a funny and normal conversation that siblings had with each other, he didn't think anything more of it.

But oh boy, his face when Kai walked up to him that same day and told him about you and showed him pictures of you, Namjoon slowly started to realize that this conversation from before had actually been about him.

And he was flattered.

“Sure. Give it to her. I'd love to get to know her.”

From what he heard from before, you sure as hell were an interesting persona and he was so down for anyone that didn't fake their personality because they were famous.

park jimin

Jimin and you had been friends ever since Beomgyu had gotten accepted into BigHit and he had run into you at an office party a few years back.

But that was initially all it was.

Friendship.

It was only recently that things started to get a little out of hand.

One drink was all it took for you two to play truth or dare and well, the next thing you knew was that you woke up in his bed the next morning.

And instead of keeping it a secret, Jimin had decided to come clean to Beomgyu, who, of course, wasn't angry at his senior, but at you.

“Do you know what this looks like? You sleeping with him? It's as if you're doing this for my sake!”

“I'm sorry to disappoint you, little brother, but not everything is about you. I like Jimin. It's as simple as that,” you shrugged.

And it's not like he could do anything to change that.

You were your own person and so was Jimin.

All he could do was stand there and watch as you two grew closer and closer.

And he didn't like it one bit.

kim taehyung

You usually stayed as far away from the industry as you possibly could.

Just because Yeonjun was now an idol, didn't mean you had to be in the spotlight too. He didn't even want you to be, he wanted to protect you from that, despite you being the older one.

Nevertheless, this was an important award show for him and while it was usually your parents being there to support him, they couldn't make it today. The thought alone that all of your brother's members would be cheered on by family except for Yeonjun was ultimately the reason that you decided to take the plunge and join him.

They were currently getting ready and you had come late, so you had missed the rest of the family members.

Not knowing where to go, you just decided to hang out in front of their green room and wait for your brother, especially because you still had to wish him good luck for his upcoming performance.

You were so focused on your phone that you didn't notice someone suddenly leaning against the wall next to you.

“Bang PD didn't say anything about a new intern.”

“That's because I'm not a new intern,” you said, still not looking up from your phone, “I'm also not a crazy fan, in case you were afraid of that. I'm Yeonjun's sister.”

“Ah.. I get why he's so secretive about you.”

When you looked up, you didn't flinch because of who it was. You just smiled a little as you noticed him biting down on his lip, his eyes traveling down to your own lips, “Are you flirting with me?”

“I'm trying, but it's not working, I think,” Taehyung chuckled.

“Ah, you're here!” Yeonjun said with a big smile, then bowed when he saw Taehyung, “Hyung?”

“Your 'hyung' is currently trying to ask me out,” you smirked.

“No, wait, I wasn't..-” but what was more offensive to Yeonjun? The fact that he was, or that he maybe wasn't, because why wouldn't he? You were pretty, intelligent and funny, “Okay, I was.”

“Uh.. well, I..-” your brother rubbed the back of his neck, clearly uncomfortable about this situation, but you took pity on the poor guy and wrapped an arm around his shoulder.

“Come on. Let's go to the stage together.”

Taehyung was a little disappointed then, but not for long. Because a day later, he got a message from Yeonjun with a phone number and: “I don't like this one bit, but she's my older sister so I have to do whatever she says. Please don't hurt her, hyung.”

Ah, so you were interested after all.

jeon jeongguk

It was so freaking early, nobody in their right state of mind should be up and working at this point.

But Jeongguk was walking, not quite awake yet, into the practice room and threw down his gym bag.

They had just started working on their newest choreography and he wanted to be one of the first to nail it.

He was just about to put on the song when someone walked in with two cups of coffee.

Someone he didn’t know.

“Here, drink this, it'll..- Oh!” your eyes widened, quickly bowing, “Sorry, wrong room.”

“Who are you?” Jeongguk narrowed his eyes at you, “Staff usually isn't working this early.”

“I'm.. not staff. I'm Taehyun's sister. He's practicing and I'm worried about him, so I stopped by before I have to go to work.”

Jeongguk looked at you for a moment, then he let out a laugh, “Boy, he's lucky to have you as his sister. I don't have anyone bringing me drinks and snacks in the morning because they're worried about me.”

The conversation didn't last any longer than that, you quickly made your way into the next practice room you could find where your brother was already dancing.

Jeongguk continued on with his day like he usually did.

The next morning, however, he was surprised to find a smoothie and a sandwich in front of the mirror with a piece of paper saying: “Eat and drink this. You'll need strength :)”

And he could have sworn that he had fallen in love right there and then.

Hi~! Please, do let me know what you think about it! As a writer, I really adore the world Frank Herbert has created, I've even gotten the book after the movie, so that I could read it. *-* I'm so glad you got yourself familiarised with Ateez! They are such a bunch of kids (apart from Seonghwa and Hongjoong aka the parent line), you'll surely enjoy their KQ Fellaz videos! 🥰 Yes, mnet was living up to its name being msnake, I'm so pissed at how they treated the boys! 😭 They did so well though!

It feels so good whenever you can get someone to stan a group you like! I do this all the time with my eldest sister. 😅 I can't wait for the repackaged album either! Though I hope they'll get some rest after it, they deserve it. Thank you for your wishes! 🥰 Your friendsgiving/christmas party sounds nice! I hope you'll have a great time! How about new year's? Will you celebrate it with friends/family? Don't apologise, I've had a busy few days, it's totally okay to reply later. Take care! 🥰 -❄️

hi secret moaa~

honestly, it’s amazing that you got the book after watching the movie! I love it when there’s a book for movies or vice versa! I remember when I was gifted the book the girl on the train and I was so determined to finish reading the book before watching the movie since it came out when I got the book. is there a book and movie you liked? and which one did you prefer between the two?

I’ve only managed to watch the first two episodes of KQ Fellaz but so far I’m just getting used to their personalities and their behaviours! but while I was watching I didn’t realise I was subconsciously trying to find a way to remember each member by instead of actually focusing on the context of the video hahah I guess msnake will always be msnake 🙄 but what matters is that txt did their best and they were still so professional about it. just know, msnake, if you piss off hueningkai one more time imma (ง •̀_•́)ง

and it really does feel good when you manage to get someone to stan a group you like, especially when it’s your ult(s)! it’s just fun to talk to them about and you’ll be assured to talk about them non-stop! I find it interesting when my friends tell me about certain points in their faves’ career whether it happened near debut time or if it was recent, the more I know I guess hehe

I agree, though. I think they deserve a well needed break, and txt too, but I have a feeling they’re in the midst of preparing something big for next year :’D a small part of me is thinking they’re preparing a world tour but I don’t want to think about it at the same time because I know they won’t be coming to the uk 😭😭 I haven’t even been able to see bts when they came to london, not once but TWICE 🧎‍♀️ I just really wanna see one of my faves at a concert at least once in my life and I’ll be content ^^ how about you? have you been to any kpop concerts? or concerts in general?

and thank you!! I’m so excited to go ice skating! I haven’t been ice skating since pre covid, so I’m looking forward to it!! and there’s a christmas market in the city centre so I can’t wait to go there and take some photos with my friends, I miss them :((( do you have any traditions during christmas time?? I’ll be celebrating new years out of town with my family and close family-friends again! the last time we did this was new years 2019/2020 so I’m happy to get back into tradition c: how about you?! what are your plans for new years? and yeah it’s understandable~

I hope you’re doing well secret moa <333

#[ 🪴 ] — asks.#Secret MOA ❄️#i missed you!!!#i’m always looking into my inbox for your asks~

Hello, Its been a while

Many months have passed since i came and posted propperly, or more than just sad ramblings (or it feels like it).

many things have happened and at the same time it feels like little has happened, i havent left home since march, i didnt start college this semester, it wasnt until recently when i started listening to spotify like water that i was able to calm my overthinking to come back to the world of living.

Part of me is still tad sad, It feels like loosing all the progress made up until the beginning of march.

But here is it to trying again

How have you been in the past months?

I´ve been mostly in twitter and as i complain often, its a bit too noisy. but there i met some people from Venezuela too, i hadnt talked with people my age from venezuela for a while, it felt nice, seen speech patterns, expressions i hadnt noticed are only talked there, I definitely felt more comfortable speaking en español, mi lengua materna.

now that i actually got a spotify account ive been trying new music. Music people has recommended to me, or fanfic playlists, or similar.

Im trying around HONNE, epik high and im pending to check out ODEZSA, SOLE, NELL, the infamous hozier, troye sivan, txt...

My phone is kinda busted, and my ipad too, they work on minimum features, but the reason why im here is because my mom lent me her old work computer, it runs nicely (waaaay better than the last one) you might have noticed i fixed my workspace a few days ago, i also made some composition studies from run and blood sweat and tears.

I also enrolled into three online courses, in this site called coursera c#, game design and concept art. they are exciting.

im as well starting to learn korean, im by lesson 14 in a site called How to Study Korean, i can definitely see conjugations and catch words here and there in songs.

im playing this beautiful game, called Sky:Children of the light along with my little sister frun, and two friends Kami and Grayii (they have accounts here so you might know them maybe) its really soothing usually, i really recommend it.

I also played GRIS it was very very beautiful

jongdae enlisted yesterday, i saw the pictures, it always makes me warm the reminded that he has now a family.

taeminnie, jinki and kibum are back already, we are only waiting for ming! jinki looks healthy and kibum too, taem has been busy but he seems very content nowadays

bangtan is dropping an album in november and they should start the concept pictures soon too, its what probably makes me the most curious, im excited

This wasn’t where he expected to be 4 years into his career, but anything to get his big break though, right?

Chapter 18 - You Can’t Choose Your Family

“What do you want to talk about?” Yoongi asked curiously as you both walked out into the hallway. He pressed his back against the wall, crossing his arms. “Well, I already know, but…” He chuckled a bit. You looked at him, sighing softly.

“I just…I don’t know what to do. I need some advice.” Yoongi nodded.

“Lay it on me.” He said simply.

“Well, Taehyung and Namjoon have both taken me on dates. They were sweet, and I had a good time. That’s not…really the problem.” Yoongi nodded. “But recently, Hoseok has been telling me that he has felt insignificant now that all of these men are like…asking me out. And he knows that I don’t feel the same way towards him as he does for me. So, I’m in a pickle here. I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings, but I just…I feel so uneasy right now. I’ve never been in a situation like this before, so I-.”

“You’re living like the protagonist of a drama and need the advice of the only guy in your life that you think doesn’t have feelings for you too?” Your eyes widened.

“Yoongi-!” You gasped, and the man snickered playfully. “You’re the worst. But to answer your question, yes…” Yoongi shrugged. “I just…well you know all of three of them so I thought you would have some advice or something for me.”

“Well…” Yoongi began. “There’s not much advice that I can give you.” When he saw your shoulders sink in defeat, he smiled. “I mean, it’s not my life. People aren’t going to be happy because you can’t pick both of them and Hoseok knows you don’t feel the same way so you can’t get out without at least one person being hurt. So, you just need to do what is going to make you happy. If you choose someone or no one, I can’t tell you what to do…”

“I guess…” You said softly.

“Hey, you’re the one who asked for my advice. And like a friend, I’ll be honest.”

“I know. I appreciate it. I just really never thought I’d be in a situation like this.”

“Are you that surprised?” Yoongi asked curiously. Your lips formed together into a small pout. He motioned back inside. “Let’s go back inside, okay?” You nodded, both heading back in. Hoseok looked up when he heard you enter, and walked over.

“Hey. A few of the kids are starting to get a bit tired. I was thinking we head back and let them take a little nap.” You nodded.

“I think that’s a good idea. Let’s clean up and-.”

“Don’t worry about cleaning up. I’ll let the boys do it. You take the kids back and get them some rest.”

“You sure?” You asked curiously. Yoongi nodded. “Okay…” Clapping your hands together, you alerted the attention of both your class and the basketball team. “Alright, class! Let’s give one final goodbye to Mr. Min and the boys before we head home.” A few kids were disappointed, but Yoongi quickly knelt and outstretched his arms. That one action had a bunch of children hurrying up to give him some of the biggest hugs. It made him grin as he tried his best to wrap his arms around as many children as he could. Those who couldn’t fit wrapped their arms around his arms or neck, nuzzling into him as they said their goodbyes.

“Thank you for visiting me guys. I had such a good time.”

“Win your fight so you can come back, okay?” Yuna’s tiny, pleading voice made Yoongi smile.

“We’ll win, okay?” Yoongi assured, and Yuna nodded. You smiled, as Hoseok and Taehyung lined the students up behind you. You waved off the boys, who waved back as you led the kids out of the door and towards the entrance of the school. They were shouting their goodbyes to Yoongi until he was out of their sight, waving excitedly until they were shuffled away.

The group walked back to the daycare in silence, a few of the kids whispering to one another. When you turned to look at the kids, hoping that by scanning their little faces you would be able to tell what had them so silent. You glanced up at the other men, who only shrugged, just as confused with the sudden silence as you were. As you watched them for a moment, finally, it began to hit you when you saw little Yuna rub her eyes. “Yuna…” you gasped softly. “What’s wrong?”

“I don’t want Mr. Min to leave….” Yuna whimpered.

“Me too…” Yeonjun sniffled. “I want Mr. Min to come back.”

“He’s going come back once their basketball game is over. It’s a very important game that-.” Hoseok’s attempt to make the children feel better was cut off as children began to sniffle and sob.

“I want Mr. Miiiiiiiiiiiiiiin!” A swarm of children began sobbing. You looked up at the adults, the four of you standing around the sea of sobbing preschoolers as you all stood in the middle of the street. Quickly, you knelt, gently rubbing the backs of Kai and Lia as they latched onto you, sniffling. Hoseok knelt as Chaeryeong and Yeji rested their heads on his shoulders, not sobbing like the other children, but their eyes still red and shaky as they watched their friends cry. Seokjin scooped as many kids into his arms as he could fit, trying to make them feel better by distracting them with funny jokes and voices, but to little to no avail. Taehyung was talking to Yeonjun and Soobin, both of whom were trying not to cry despite the tears rolling down their cheeks, and was smiling. He was amused by the children’s emotion, but of course, was trying his best to stop the crying. You sighed, trying to find the best way to at least get the rest of the kids inside the building so that they would not be sobbing in the street. Seokjin eventually got them moving by simply scooping up a few of the kids who were crying the hardest and having the rest follow.

At the end of the day, the kids were sent home after what felt like hours of children sobbing and sniffling at their desks about Yoongi. Everything that was done to try to make the kids feel better didn’t seem to work that well, and you had to just take the rest of the day to distract them all until they went home.

“That could have gone a lot better at the end…” Hoseok grinned as he began to wipe down the tables. You nodded, giggling to yourself as you grabbed hold of a few wet wipes and turning your attention towards the board as you began to clean it. “But the kids seemed to enjoy the trip and I think Yoongi appreciated it.” As the two of you got to work cleaning up the room, Seokjin, and Taehyung most likely doing the same in their rooms. There wasn’t much to say among one another, at least not at first. You didn’t know what to say, your mind still focused on the conversation that you had with Yoongi back at the school. He was right, and you knew that you were in no better place than you were before the talk.

I feel like everyone always says to do what feels right. Probably because nobody knows what they would do if it were them. You thought to yourself, a pout forming on your face. As you continued to clean up the board, you heard Hoseok call your name, and looked over in his direction, and saw him staring back at you.

“…I was thinking about this, today. I just wanted to say sorry about the way I’ve been acting recently with the whole date thing.’ You smiled a bit. “I don’t know if I’ll ever really be happy about it but…you know, won’t do me any good to be a jerk about it…”

“Well, thank you, Hobi. I appreciate that.” You smiled. Hoseok nodded, going back to clean the table. As a comfortable silence fell back over the both of you, you heard a noise from down the hallway. Turning around, you saw Taehyung walking into the room. He offered you a grin, which you were quick to return. “Get all of your cleaning done?”

“Yep. My room is as clean as it was before I ever used it.” Taehyung grinned. “Anything I can do in here to help?” he walked over to you, and you handed him a rag.

“Can you clean up the shelves and see if anything needs to be reorganized?” you asked curiously. Taehyung nodded, walking over to the other side of the shelves. Just as you were getting back to cleaning, you heard another noise coming from down the hall. You cocked an eyebrow, turning back towards the door. It did not sound much like Seokjin, you could identify his voice from a mile away. No…but you did recognize the voice. As you walked towards the door, Taehyung and Hoseok looked up. “Are we expecting any meetings with parents this afternoon?” you asked, looking at Hoseok.

“…No, I don’t think so.” He assured. You hummed, stepping into the hallway. Taehyung and Hoseok shared a confused look, wondering what- or who – the voice could belong to. It didn’t take them long to find out, as almost immediately, the boys watched as you were attacked by a flying coat, a high-pitched cheer heard from the hall. Taehyung’s eyes were wide in surprise, and he once again turned to Hoseok for some kind of nonverbal validation. However, Hoseok was just as confused as he was. Then, those confused eyes went wider.

“Hyung, what’s going on?” Taehyung asked. Hoseok immediately hurried over to him and leaned in close.

“That’s her sister…” Hoseok said softly. Taehyung blinked, looking towards the door, where you were looking down at your sister who was grinning from ear to ear. Taehyung could notice your brows furrowed just slightly as you watched your sister chatter on. Before Hoseok could say anything else, you and your sister walked inside. You opened your mouth to speak, but your sister immediately took over for you.

“Hobi-Oppa!” she grinned, hurrying over to him. She flung her arms around him and he smiled she hugged her back. “It’s been so long, wow. You look so handsome.”

“Awww, thanks, Bong-Cha.” He smiled. “How have you been?” while the duo engaged in a little bit of side conversation, Taehyung glanced over to you, watching as you stood nearby, silently. Your arms were at your side as you watched. Taehyung simply turned back to the shelf, getting ready to go back to work. However, he has quickly turned back around and saw Bong-Cha smiling sweetly up at him. From this close, Taehyung could see the resemblance to you, the wide eyes, and the bright smile.

“Hi. You must be the new art teacher my sister has been talking about recently.” Taehyung nodded. “Nice to meet you~.”

“You too.” He smiled happily. “I’m Kim Taehyung.”

“So, I was right. You’re the one who took my sister out recently. How’d it go? My sister isn’t known to be a dater.”

“Bong-Cha-.” You gasped. Your sister turned back to you, grinning.

“I’m only kidding, Unnie.” She assured. “But seriously, Kim Taehyung, how did it go? She never tells me anything.” Taehyung couldn’t help but smile a bit.

“It was great.” He smiled. “We had a good time.’ Bong-Cha grinned.

“I’m glad! I want my sister to have good dates with…” she looked over Taehyung. “Good looking people, you know?” Taehyung blinked, then felt his cheeks heat up just slightly. All he could do was offer a shy laugh. “My sister always ends up getting all of the good-looking guys recently.”

“That’s not true.” You said simply, and all eyes turned to you as you walked to your desk. “You can’t walk a block without a good-looking man chatting you up.” Though a small smile escaped your lips, Taehyung couldn’t help but feel off by your tone. Bong-Cha, however, only offered a pout.

“Aww, well thank you.” She said softly, turning to Taehyung once again. “But even so, I don’t get to have the undevoted attention of three incredibly attractive men on me all day, every day.” You scoffed, and Bong-Cha frowned. “What? I’m serious! You have the handsome businessman taking you to amazing restaurants, you have the childhood best friend who for some unknown reason still follows you around like a puppy dog-.” Taehyung looked at Hoseok, whose cheeks turned red and he immediately turned away. “And now you have this cute artsy boy who takes you out to paint and have picnics? Whatever drama life you’re living I want to be a part of it somehow.”

“Stop trying to narrate my life as if it’s some sort of movie scene.” You scoffed. Bong-Cha pursed her lips.

“Why is she in such a bad mood?” she asked, looking to Hoseok and Taehyung.

“It was a long day,” Taehyung said simply. Bong-Cha sighed, looking at you once again.

“Can you at least give me Hobi-Oppa?” she whispered. “You know, I’ve always thought he was cute.”

“Bong-Cha did you only come here while I’m working to be obnoxious?” You asked. Bong-Cha blinked, staying silent for a moment. “…Well?”

“Well, that’s not the only reason I came by.” Bong-Cha hummed. You raised an eyebrow. “I wanted to see you. You’ve been so busy you never make time for me anymore.”

“I have a full-time job, Bong-Cha.” You said simply.

“Yeah, so do I. But I always make time for my sister.” She huffed.

“Yeah, I know and you make it seem like I don’t?” Bong-Cha sighed.

“Whatever.” She turned to Hoseok and Taehyung, who were still standing around quietly, watching the siblings bicker. “You’re so sensitive. Oppa, how on earth have you dealt with her this long?” Hoseok chuckled a bit.

“Sheer willpower, I guess.” He and Bong-Cha shared a playful laugh, and Taehyung offered an amused smile. You rolled your eyes as well but offered your sister a playful smirk in response when she turned to you once again.

“One of these days you’ll give me a break.” You muttered. Bong-Cha smiled.

“Only if you agree to go to lunch with me, I’ll think about giving you a break.” As you finished cleaning up your desk for the evening, you sighed. “Pleeease?”

“Can I look at my schedule when I get home and call you?” You asked curiously. Bong-Cha pouted.

“I literally can’t believe you just said you hate me in front of your friends.”

“I didn’t say that.” You had to force out a laugh sometime.

“It is the same thing.” She huffed. “But okay, fine. I’ll be a good sister. I expect a text by tomorrow morning and no later so else I’ll be calling your phone the rest of the day.”

“Right…” you said softly. “Deal.” Bong-Cha smiled, walking over towards you. Her arms outstretched, enveloping you into a tight hug that you returned. “Now go home so I can finish up here, okay?” you asked.

“Why can’t I hang out with Taehyung-Oppa and Hoseok-Oppa?” she asked curiously. “I won’t be in your way!”

“I know, but they need to help me clean.”

“But the room already looks clean.” She took Taehyung’s hand. “Can’t he show me his art studio or something?” you glanced at Taehyung, who sighed.

“I don’t mind.” He glanced down at her, and she smiled happily. “But I do have to still help your sister. Can we maybe save it for another-?”

“It’ll only be a minute.” She assured. “I promise.” Taehyung sighed.

“She won’t stop until you say yes. Either that or she’ll say you hate her too.” You pointed out simply. “Go ahead, Hobi and I can finish here.” Taehyung sighed, putting a hand in his pocket.

“Okay then, let’s go.” He smiled down at Bong-Cha, who returned it happily before the both of them exited the room. Once you and Hoseok were alone, he turned to you and watched as you ran a hand through your hair.

“She’s such a presence,” Hoseok said, and both of you laughed. “You think he’ll survive?”

“Absolutely.” You said simply. You turned to the shelf that was still in need of dusting, and walked over to it, lifting the abandoned duster that Taehyung left. “If anything, he’ll probably come back head over heels in love with her…” Though Hoseok chuckled at the comment, your lack of amusement caused him to frown, as he watched you get back to work at tidying the final parts of the room up.

Back in Taehyung’s art room, Bong-Cha was admiring all of the children’s artwork that was hung on the walls or resting on the windowsills. When she turned to Taehyung, she saw him resting against the door frame.

“These are so cute. You’re so talented.”

“Thanks. I like to think I teach them well.” Taehyung said.

Bong-Cha nodded. “So…what do you think of my sister?” she asked curiously. Taehyung looked up. “Between you and me, of course.” When Taehyung immediately didn’t answer, Bong-Cha sighed. “I’m not trying to be shady if that’s what you think.”

“I’m not saying you are,” Taehyung assured. “But what do you need to know? You should know her better than me, wouldn’t you know what she’s like?”

“Well yeah, but my sister can be defensive sometimes. I’m sure you’ve noticed.” She said simply. “Every time I try to ask her something about her love life, she won’t tell me.”

“Maybe she doesn’t want to,” Taehyung said simply. Bong-Cha sighed.

“Well, yeah I know. Because up until now her love life has been pathetic. So, she’s just embarrassed. So, I have to use my other sources.” Taehyung frowned a bit. Bong-Cha noticed this and blinked. “As I said, I’m not trying to be shady. I just want to help her. I know what it’s like to date. And she’s my older sister, I want to make sure she makes the right choice with all these options being shoved in her direction at once.”

“And what do you think the right choice would be?” he asked curiously.

“Well, I can’t say without knowing the details.” She said simply. “She’s told me a little about the business guy, Mr. Kim? And I’ve known Hoseok-Oppa my whole life. So, there’s only you left.” Taehyung sighed.

“Well, I like your sister a lot, if that helps. I hope we remain friends regardless of what happens.” Bong-Cha nodded.

“Right…okay.” She said simply. Turning to Taehyung, she offered him a smile once again. “Then that’s all I need to know. Sorry, I hope I’m not coming off as prodding or pushy.”

Taehyung only offered her a shrug as he led her to the door. “You are. But I can sense your intentions in the right place, I guess.” Bong-Cha giggled a bit as they arrived at your classroom once again, right before both of you and Hoseok stepped out, with you locking the door.

“I’ll be waiting on that text, my dear.” Bong-Cha hummed, holding up her phone and practically dangling it in your face. You rolled your eyes.

“Right…” you said simply. “Now go home. We need to stop by Mr. Kim’s office and drop off some paperwork from our field trip today.” Bong-Cha pouted.

“Okay. I can sense when I’m not wanted.” She teased. As she walked towards the door, you purposely held Taehyung and Hoseok back slightly, outstretching your arms when the boys tried to walk past you. Bong-Cha turned around and smiled. “Nice to meet you, Taehyung-Oppa. Bye, Hobi-Oppa!” Hoseok and Taehyung waved to her. “Byeeeee, Unnie~!” she squealed afterward. You rolled your eyes playfully and waved her off as she finally headed out the front door of the preschool. Once Bong-Cha was gone, it felt as if a huge weight lifted off of your shoulders. “Oh, thank God she’s gone. There’s only so much of her I can take at a time.”

“She seems sweet,” Taehyung said.

“Seems is the keyword there, Taehyung.” You said simply. “What did she even want to talk to you about? I know she didn’t just pull you aside to look in your classroom. She’s manipulative like that.” Taehyung, hands stuffed into his pockets, shrugged.

“Nothing.” He said simply. “She just asked me about myself. I guess she was trying to find out about your newest suitor.” You groaned, shoving Taehyung as he laughed a bit. “I didn’t tell her anything, don’t worry.”

“Yeah, yeah…” you said softly.

“…I wonder what she needed my Social Security Number and mother’s maiden name for, though.” He muttered. Hoseok and you couldn’t help but laugh at Taehyung’s comment, and you headed down the hall towards Seokjin’s office.

You were the only one who needed to speak to Seokjin, so Taehyung and Hoseok said their goodbyes before heading out the door and towards the train station. Neither of them knew what to say to one another, and for a while, they walked down the street in silence. Taehyung looked around him, at the scenery as it passed him by. When he looked at Hoseok, he saw the other male flipping through his phone. “Hyung…” Taehyung finally hummed, and Hoseok looked over at him curiously. “Has her sister always been that…intense?”

“Yeah. Bong-Cha is a really sweet girl. Funny too. But sometimes, she can be a bit bratty.” Hoseok said simply. “And she knows that her sister will never really say anything to her about it.” Taehyung nodded. “Did she try to pry?”

“Oooooh yeah,” Taehyung said. “I didn’t tell her anything, though. It’s none of her business regardless of her intentions. She doesn’t want Bong-Cha to know so I’m going to respect that. My mother can be like that…” Hoseok nodded.

As if on cue, Taehyung’s phone rang. When he looked down at it, a picture of his mother and him from childhood, a bouncy Taehyung sitting on his mother’s lap, flashed on the screen. “Speak of the devil. It’s like she’s a psychic. I’ll see you tomorrow, Hyung.”

“Bye.” Hoseok smiled, continuing down the road as Taehyung stopped in his spot to answer the phone. He was hesitant at first but knew he would only be in deeper trouble if he put the call off. Sighing, he answered the phone.

“Hello?”

“I don’t hear from my son in months and this is the greeting I get?” A voice sneered from the other side. Taehyung’s nose scrunched up.

“Hello, Mother. How are you?” He repeated.

“At least sound enthusiastic.” She teased. “I’m fine, though. I was talking to the other mothers in the neighborhood and realized it’s been a while since we spoke together.”

“I’m glad your friends reminded you how long it’s been since you spoke to your son.” He said simply.

“We both live busy lives, honey. There’s nothing wrong with that.” Taehyung continued to walk down the street as he remained on the phone. “It sounds like you’re outside. Outselling your paintings again?”

“Surprisingly, no,” Taehyung said simply. “I thought I texted you that I got a new job a few months ago.” His mother hummed.

“Maybe I missed it. What job is this?”

“An…art teacher at a preschool.” He said simply. His mother was silent for a moment. “Jimin helped me get it.”

“Jimin, hm? He’s always been a good kid. His mother must be proud of him, I heard he got a promotion recently.” Taehyung pursed his lips together.

“Yes, I know.” He said simply.

“Anyway, congratulations on the job. It’s not something I would have envisioned for my only son, but at least it provides a definite income for now, so that’s good. Is it a nice place?”

“It is…” he said softly. “I’m very happy here. But I’m still selling my paintings on the side. I was at the Ilsan Art Festival recently.”

“Oh? Your father and I were going to go to that, too. Unfortunately, he came down with a cold so we decided not to. I wish you said so earlier.” His eyes rolled, not buying her statement for a minute.

“Last time I tried to invite you guys, you said no.” He said simply.

“Well, that was last time.” She said simply. “But oh well, let us know next time so we don’t have to put all our hope in mere coincidences.”

“Oh yeah, I’ll do that.” He said simply. “Listen Mother. I’m headed to the train, so I need to go.”

“Well, alright then. I’m sure you worked hard so get some rest.” She said softly. Taehyung had to admit, it made him smile a little bit. “Just make sure you call me sometime soon, okay?��

“Right…” he said softly. “Talk soon. Love you.”

“Love you.” His mother said simply. Both of them hung up, and Taehyung slid his phone right into his pocket. As he arrived at the station and waited for his train, he crossed his arms, thinking back to what he experienced this afternoon alone. He thought about Bong-Cha, he thought about you, and he thought about his mother.

It’s not something I would envision for my only son…

I wish you said so earlier…

Well, that was the last time.

He’s a good kid. His mother must be proud of him.

Taehyung knew exactly how you felt, that was for sure.

-------------------------------------------

“Thank goodness you got back to me, quickly.” Bong-Cha grinned as she rested her menu on the table. You glanced up at your sister as she sat across from you. That weekend you had been dragged out to lunch per your sister’s request, and much to her delight. You were happy to go out too, especially when Bong-Cha agreed to pay in return for her nagging. “I was preparing to kick your door down.”

“Then I would have had to kill you.” You said simply, and the both of you chuckled. A silence fell upon the both of you, and you were unsure what to say. This happened often, and while sometimes the both of you enjoyed the comfort of one another despite the silence, this wasn’t one of them. You kept sipping your water to make it seem like that was why you weren’t saying anything. Finally, Bong-Cha sighed.

“Sorry if I was too much the other day. You know I was only trying to pull your leg, right?”

“Yeah, I know.” You said simply. “It’s not that big of a deal.”

“Well, it is if you’re upset.” She said simply. You shrugged, setting your drink down on the table.

“As I said, don’t worry about it.” As silence fell on the two of you again, this time you were quick to make sure it didn’t settle among you. “So…what did you think of him?” Bong-Cha looked up at you as you pressed your fingers together. “You had a minute to talk to him so…yeah, what do you think?” When you looked back up at your sister, a grin formed on her face. It sent a shiver up his spine.

“I did enjoy meeting him. He’s nice, and he seems to fit in well.” She took a sip of her water, and you watched her. “Do you like him?”

“Yeah.” You said simply. “I do. I didn’t at first, but I like to think we pushed our differences aside and have reached a common ground, you know?” Bong-Cha nodded.

“Well, if he asked you on a date, then absolutely, I’m sure it’s water under the bridge now.”

“Right.” You said simply. “That’s true.” Bong-Cha grinned.

“Okay, so now we can sister talk right?” She beamed. Before you had the chance to reply, she continued. “Which boy do you think is cuter?”

“Uhm-.”

“Have you kissed any of them yet? Which one kisses better? That’s important, you know.”

“Is it?” you asked curiously. “I mean, I don’t know, I-.”

“Well yeah, it’s important!” Bong-Cha gasped. You shifted in your seat, and the sound of a sigh escaping your sister’s lips, made you shiver. “You haven’t kissed any of them yet, huh? Well, that’s alright….”

“No that’s not-.” Almost immediately you had to stop yourself before you said something you regretted. If anyone knew about that kiss with Namjoon, you couldn’t bear to think about it. Hoseok knew, and honestly, your mind kept wandering to the question of if that was even a good idea. “Bong-Cha, that stuff is the least of my worries right now.” You said simply.

“Hm? Why what’s wrong?” She asked curiously.

“Well, I just…I have these two…three if you count Hoseok-.”

“-I do,” Bong-Chat stated. You glanced at her before continuing.

“Three men who are wonderful and kind, and yes, would all make good companions. But even though I know that, I still have my morals.” Bong-Cha scoffed.

“What? That you don’t like inter-office relationships? That’s stupid.”

“Regardless of what you think it is, that’s how I feel. But at the same time, I want to continue going on these dates and working all of this out. But…I can’t help but think that I’m not the kind of person men like these should be interested in. It feels like they’re wasting their time.” After a moment, Bong-Cha let out a loud snort. The laugh alerted the attention of a few other patrons at nearby tables, as well as you, your eyes widening a bit. “What?”

“Well, yeah, duh.” She said simply. You blinked.

“Huh?”

Bong-Cha grinned. “I’m kidding…you’re too hard on yourself.” She cooed. You sighed, resting back against your chair. Bong-Cha stared at you for a minute, seeing as your face formed a deep frown, and she followed suit in one as well. “Oh, don’t tell me I made you upset. You are so sensitive, Unnie.”

“You didn’t,” you said simply. “You’re just an idiot.” Bong-Cha sighed, standing up.

“Whatever, liar. Whatever happened to you taking a joke? Anyway, I’m going to the bathroom. And I’ll see where our waitress is for refills okay?” You simply nodded, turning your head to look at your sister to watch as she walked away. As she did, you ran a hand through your hair.

Why does she always give me a hard time? You thought to yourself. As you waited for your sister to return, you tried to see if any semblance of your conversation could guide you in any way about what to do. Suddenly, you heard a noise behind you. When you looked over to the entrance of the restaurant, you saw your sister standing there, chatting up two men who seemed to be about her age. She tucked some hair behind her ear, offering the boys a playful grin and charming giggle as they chatted her up. You sighed, crossing your arms as you watched the scene unfold before you. When you saw Bong-Cha look in your direction, a grin formed on her face and she pointed in your direction. The two younger men turned in your direction, and you quickly looked away, sipping your water.

No, Bong-Cha did not provide you any advice in your situation yet again.

Homestuck 2 Liveblog, Part 3

(See older parts here or on Tumblr here)

Chapter 3: How Are your feelings

We’ve got a new ship, which appears to have sails for some reason, and it’s either rocketing forward with determination, or crashing. Presumably, this is the ship containing the Meatworld Crew, who set out to rescue Rose from Dirk’s mind control. God, this plot is so complicated.

In anyone else’s hands, this is just a microphone. In my hands it’s a pipe boat.

The one spoiler I had for this chapter was that the ship design was stupid, and...yes. That says “Grandpa Harley” a lot more than the Theseus did, though I don’t think Canon Jake ever smoked.

Oh boy, the narration text is in the first person. It’s also lowercase, so one presumes this is Calliope, in Jade’s body? I thought Calliope was trying to maintain the role of invisible narrator, though, and she’s calling attention to herself more obviously than any of the other narrators.

Me on my way to steal your girl by possessing her and floating around all creepy for three years

JADE: the prince’s power grows.

KARKAT: JESUS CHRIST!

Heh. This art is really nice. Jade’s speaking in Calliope’s red text, so she is indeed possessed by Calliope. Poor Jade. Homestuck proper is 8,192 pages. The epilogue is 100,000 words, and we’re 100 pages into Homestuck 2. Jade has been stuck on a boat, possessed, unconscious, dead,possessed again, or otherwise out of the story since Cascade, all the way back on page 4,109. No wonder she became a hedonist. Of course, who’s fault is it that Jade missed the final battle.

(From Homestuck 1).

I always read this as foreshadowing that Jade would get a big moment, and it never happened. Hopefully someone on the writing team remembers that Jade is supposed to roar to life and show everyone who’s the real master. But for now, alas, the real master is Calliope, hypocritically fighting for the free will of all by taking Jade out of the story again. Anyway, that was a long tangent and a lot of search (give me back the .txt file of the whole comic, Viz!) back to Homestuck 2.

Oh hey, DaveKat is canon now, I forgot. It’s mildly annoying that Dave and Calliope are in the same scene with the same text color, but whatev.

Aww, Karkat’s wearing Dave’s shirt. How cute. Less cute: Calliope’s added her red to Jade’s outfit, including her logo. She’s really just as evil as Dirk, isn’t she?

Also, I don’t know if this sprite style quite works for a “leaning up in bed pose”

This just looks odd. Probably doesn’t help that we’re see Dave without shades for I believe the first time ever.

KARKAT: OH, PARDON THE FUCK OUT OF ME FOR OVERREACTING A LITTLE WHEN MY GOOD FRIEND "POSSESSED JADE" BUSTS INTO MY RESPITEBLOCK AT 5 AM!

Aw, I missed this, a Karkat tantrum.

I like this dynamic. But if they’ve been on this boat as long as Dirk has been on his, Jade’s been possessed for three years.

Why are Dirk and Calliope’s powers growing, though? Especially Calliope, shouldn’t she be maxed out by now? She literally ate Lord Engl-

....

Calliope is powerful enough to escape Candyland because she ate Lord English, and Lord English is partially comprised of Dirk, so there’s quite literally a little bit of Dirk inside Calliope right now. That’s maybe something to keep in the back of our minds, but now I’m theorycrafting.

The only way twenty-somethings can afford an apartment this night is if they live somewhere with a killer commute, which is why it takes three years to get anywhere

Okay, phew. So this Roxy is trans, but the Roxy on Candyland isn’t. That’s something I’m going to have to be careful to remember lest I use the wrong pronoun for the wrong one and everyone gets mad at me.

Dirk, like the coffee, getting roasted here

So, has this crew not been chasing Dirk for three years, or has Dave just been all “I sure am comfortable with you being trans now” incessantly from age 23 to age 26? I guess that’s pretty in-character for him. Everyone seems to not be used to a situation they should be used to be now so far, but maybe that’s just for our benefit as readers who can’t remember all this nonsense?

I love how Kanaya the Fashion Troll is basically the only character in the entire franchise to go “Fuck I haven’t been onscreen in over ten years I should change my look”. The big bow is Rose’s from way back when her and Kanaya first met, which is a cute nod.

Okay I get that they want to remind these things to the reader, but Dave. Dude. She’s your sister-in-law. She’s been your sister-in-law for 7 to 10 years depending on how long you’ve been on that boat and she’s been a vampire that whole time. Someone give this boy a set of flash cards, Jesus Christ!

OBVIOUS FORESHADOWING ALERT: This story is about a “young prince”, and this is going to be a metaphor. The young prince is Dirk, the Prince of Time, and the Rose is....Rose.

Aww, this is cute. I should have put on Kanaya’s Theme while reading this, it fits the mood of the scene really well.

Oh man, none of these people know John’s dead

fffffffffffffffff

Okay, so that’s 7 years between the end of Homestuck 1 and the Homestuck Epilogues. Dirk’s been on his boat for three years, but we’re with the Meat Crew at the start of their journey, (which means Roxy only recently came out as trans, which I guess makes it less weird that Dave is still processing it).

But god, this is a lot of timelines to keep track of. I guess it’s fun in a way, being intensely convoluted was part of the fun of trying to piece together Homestuck 1′s plot, but I think I’m this close to busting out a white board where and how old everyone is actually fuck it

God as my witness, I will one day have a vague understanding of what the fuck is going on in Homestuck and I will die trying!

This seems metatextual, in that the characters are more complete when they have like a goal and stuff. Or it might be the Homestuck 2 writers taking a subtle jab at the Epilogue writers, that everyone’s better off having left the epilogues behind and moving on to Homestuck 2. That might be reading too much into it.

Of course, as soon as I say that we cut from Dave talking about how everything’s better to Karkat talking about how everything’s worse.

Wait, non-god Calliope is on the ship? UGH, the whiteboard already needs to be updated! The epilogues implied she was too scared of god-Calliope to leave her room, so I’d assumed she’d stayed behind. Damn it.

Heh. Also: Huh? Karkat is making a lot of assumptions here, given that Terezi, Sollux, and Aradia are all alive, he never saw Gamzee die, and Vriska dying just made her more powerful.

And that’s the update! I like these character interactions, even though they’re mostly just sitting around and naval-gazing like in Act 6 and the epilogues, because at least it’s got some jokes it feels like it’s all going somewhere. And starting next month, it’s going to be going there twice as fast

OH! And there’s one really good bnha fic I love but I can’t remember the title?? Kinda a bnha/Tokyo Ghoul crossover?

Que breaking into hospitals to eat dead bodies, lotta confusion, and self hate but he still wants to be a hero!

.........I didn’t stick to three oops. Oh well...

20. Favorite Original Story Idea (Authored by Me): I’ve got 2/3 on my mind right now. (Because I can't pick favorites to save my life.)

#1 is Introvert city girl with a fear of dogs and her mom move to a small town where the random dogs out in the woods are bigger than average and a really cute boy takes a sudden interest in her. (spoiler alert--its werewolves. He’s a werewolf. Do you know how hard it is to tell your crush about your furry problem when they're afraid of dogs? Also, add in a mysterious organization that has a problem kidnapping adolescent werewolves and we’ve got ourselves half a plot ladies and gentlemen.)

#2 is about another introvert girl (surprise, surprise) in a zombie apocalypse. It’s been months since she’s seen another human being who doesn’t want to eat her. Her story starts when she happens upon an old radio and while fiddling with it one night, she accidentally tunes into a boys channel where four boys talk to each other. there’s a lot of introverting, reading, dogs, cold weather, dead people trying to eat her, looting, and listening to boys conversations over a walkie talkie that may or may not classify as creepy.

and #3 is just classic noble girl is sent as a spy into the enemy kingdom but everything goes to shit before she even walks in the door. Mission was simple. Be a kitchen girl, poison the King's food and kill him and then escape back home during the confusion. Instead, she gets the honor of becoming the Prince’s comfort woman/concubine after the last girl did an honor killing on herself. So, new mission. Get close enough to the Prince that he tells her information and then send that information back to her country so that they can win the war. (Passing secret information along is a little easier when it's not written down on paper but instead in flower crowns and bouquets as the secret language of flowers.)

Tagging some of the people in my notifications if you feel like doing this! @imaghostwriter @alexwillow @theotherchloegrace @ps-nippets @maikosworld01 @sapphonics

Like I’m gonna lose you

So writing this was basically what cemented this AU in my mind and I kind of forgot to actually post it here instead of leaving it on my Ao3 so enjoy. Also helps give some world building so win win. under a cut because long

Song inspo

All Elrond had ever wanted was to have all his family with him all at the same time; it seemed such a simple request but one that had little, if any, chance of happening. His daughter had chosen the way of Lúthien before her. His sons? All he knew was they had stayed. At the very least he had his love and light Celebrían there, with him, and for the first few millennia they were rarely spotted apart. Then came the trickling in of old holdouts and stragglers bringing with them tales of the lives they had lead until at last rejoining their kin. Most had remained within settlements that they eventually couldn’t recognize but some, some brought messages for those in Valinor: news of the families that had chosen mortality. One of them brought a message from Elladan and Elrohir: Arwen was alive, still, and wandering. They try to console her as best they can but her sorrow is an ocean and she was starting to drown.

It was his wife who suggested the imperfect plan. He had planted the image of her outliving her love into her mind long ago and she was almost certain, if nothing else, he may be able to convince her and her brothers to sail West at last. Was this not what he had wanted: his family happily together once more? Yes, but not like this, never like this. He was forced into a position he had never wanted to be in: choosing between the love of his life and his own child.

“Go for me,” Celebrían begged cupping his cheek to turn his face towards her own. He remembered that heartbroken look. “Please.”

So he petitioned, pleaded, begged to be allowed to go back for his children. His pleadings fell onto deaf ears that was until Celebrían went in his stead. She brought back to him the verdict that had been in his favor: he could go back for his children but he and any one else who chose to return to Middle Earth had to remain. Permanently. He fell to his knees sobbing. So, so, so many thousands of years spent losing all those he held dear and now they were going to do this? She knelt down next to him pulling him into her warm embrace. One last night together; they had onelast night to pour all the ‘I love you’s, soft kisses, and warm embraces until the end of time out for each other, and then he’d sail.

There were already ships missing when he left; apparently he wasn’t the only one to have some reason to return.

When he landed at what he could only assume was what had become of the Grey Havens there was already an envoy waiting. Among them were most of the messengers and his sons. The world they showed him along the route home had changed significantly but still had a strange sort of familiarity to them. As if he were looking at an artistic rendition of something that had only ever been described to them. They assured him that their sister was waiting, tired, but waiting. As seemed to be the way of the elves his kingdom remained nigh on unchanged save for additions of new technology. The old had blended with the new to create something better; his sons had done well. He planned to spend time learning what had passed in his absence and of the new inventions that seemed to fill most corners of Imaldris but first -

He barely got the chance to cross the threshold of his old home before a blur of black, pale white, and royal blue nearly knocked him off his feet with a hug that rested somewhere between a tackle and the tight hug of a child who had waited far too long for her ada to come home.

The ages had started to blend into each other and Imaldris became a hub and a haven once more. He had never been able to convince his children to leave him behind to join their mother which left him no choice but to stay and help the world however he could. After Arwen left once more he became a travelling physician knowing the haven he’d helped found was in good hands with his sons. He traveled the continent lending his healing hands to those who otherwise would have no means of getting help. In doing this he passed the time as the centuries flew by until one day he looked up and it was the dawn of yet another millennium: year 2000 by the calendar Men now used. He decided it was time to plant roots and moved to the city to be near his daughter.

He found many familiar faces there including two he had thought would never join them: Galadriel and Celeborn no longer lady and lord. Now Senator and historian respectively doing what they could to change the future and preserve the past. He never asked why they had left just remained grateful for their company while he adjusted to the strange city he’d moved to. They helped him find work at the local hospital and helped him find an apartment even offering their guest room in the meantime. He had no words for his gratitude thankfully with Galadriel he didn’t need any: she knew.

March 2008 had been unseasonably cold and while his elven heritage hadn’t let him feel the worst of the chill it had kept him from one of the few things that could help keep his mind clear these days: jogging through the park. Instead he called up his sons to see how things were, see if they needed help, purposely dance around whether or not he’d spoken with Arwen recently. After he hung up he went outside to check the weather for himself: clear, sunny, and warm enough for it not to look too strange for him to take a jog.

[txt: Iellig] Ada meet me here. I have something to show you.

Attached was a picture of the old Mallorn tree - one of the few left in the area - heritage site. It had been so long since he’d gotten a chance to talk with Arwen. He’d gotten so caught up in his work that he’d just lost track again. He was quick to text her back to let her know he would come, after his run, glad for the chance to talk with her and make amends.

The drive there was spent trying to put his regrets, he seemed to collect those like stamps these days, into words. He hadn’t meant to lose touch, hadn’t meant to stop answering her calls once she met this century’s incarnation of Aragorn at a tattoo shop, hadn’t meant to just stop talking to her. Except he had hadn’t he? Even now, 6061 years later, he was still trying to keep her within the box he’d created. One would think he would have long since learned that his daughter had inherited her grandmother’s steely will. She knew what she wanted to be, who she wanted to be, and who she would love and every time he tried to shield her from the inevitable pain he’d only ever made it worse.

He put the car in park and hit the trail. It was long and winding but it’d give him more time to measure his words carefully. If he wasn’t careful he’d only push her even further away. The park was oddly quiet save for the birds and crunch of gravel beneath his feet. It didn’t take nearly as long as he’d hoped to reach the site that was, thankfully, far more populated than the trail had been. He scanned the crowd as he drew closer looking for the shock of long blue hair he’d seen Arwen with the last time they’d spoken. His eyes though were instead drawn towards - no. She’d stayed. Just someone who resembled her. Yes that - His feet drew him closer and closer; each step making it harder to deny what he was seeing. He stopped a few feet away trying to swallow the golf ball sized lump that had formed in his throat. It had been ages, surely his mind was just desperately grasping at whatever was closest to close over the, now reopened, wound that had been left when he watched Celebrían dip below the horizon so long ago.

“I’m sorry I made you wait,” she said taking a few tentative steps forwards to cup his cheek in her hand. It was her, Celebrían, here in the flesh standing before him. Was this some cruel apparition? He closed the distance between them pulling her into a desperate and needy kiss. The moment their lips touched the dam that had been holding back the sorrow he’d collected over far too many years broke all at once causing him to crumple. He had become so resigned to his fate that he never thought of the possibility that she may return to join him.
