[tash-sho-sho]

[rain-day-today]

Hey ! Do you have hcs about Gajeel and Juvia's brotp plz ? (Sorry if it comes out of the blue, I'm just curious...)

OF COURSE!!!

Gajeel and Juvia Brotp headcanons!

Juvia and Gajeel both came to phantom at the same time. Like jose went to pick up gajeel and on the way back found juvia. So like, they’ve been locked in since day one

Since phantom wasn’t a guild where you show your connection Juvia and Gajeel were never openly affectionate with each other or anyone else so their friendship really developed in private.

Juvia’s first language wasn’t the common one and neither was Gajeel’s, so they both had a horrible lisp and speech patterns. This led to them not talking in the common language when in private and learning a bit of each others instead

When they joined fairy tail they became more confident in their speech but still talked to each other in their first language.

Gajeel used to walk her home from jobs because “ course i'm not here for you, im just going this way” and “tch- you think a little rain’s gonna bother a tough guy like me?”

He made her little thumb caps for when she sews

Juvia bought gajeel his first guitar and has never regretted it

Juvia listens to heavy “metal” while Gajeel prefers “Blues”

They are both really good at baking

Juvia sewed Gajeel a dark blue apron with silver embroidery

Since neither knew how to cook or do laundry or anything else,they made up their own way of how to do it(Gajeel was too proud to ask for help and they were like 10), so now they both have the same really weird way of doing household tasks.

“Erza-san? What do you mean you don't punch the water out of the bed sheets when you do laundry?” “Of course it's normal! Gajeel-kun does it too!”

When Juvia moved into fairy hills Gajeel was SO pissed that he couldn’t visit her. he even tried to fight Erza to let him in until Juvia dragged him out.

Gajeel puffs up his chest whenever Grays around and tries to telepathically send death threats.

When gajeel first met juvia he instantly was reminded of wendy and instantly activated big brother mode.

Gajeel isn’t a big fan of being a destructive mage he prefers being a protective figure

Juvia used to focus alot on getting stronger and nothing else since she couldn’t do anything else. Now she gets to focus on what she likes and and finding what makes her happy

Juvia uses gajeel as a listening device. He picks up the best tea

Juvia had a cat when she was young and gajeel wishes he could have met her

They both like crunchy food the most

Juvia loves soap operas and forces gajeel to watch them too, now he can recite the plot of 560 episodes of desperate dames

They both hate crowded environments (dragonslayer senses + anxiety) but enjoy people so they suck it up.

They both runs cold and love sipping hot chocolate in the winter

Gajeel’s favorite month is the fall

Juvia is a late winter/early spring type of girl

They use the same hair care products

Gajeel cuts her hair

Juvia was there when Gajeel got some of his piercings and it made her never want to get another piercing ever agai

Juvia makes the costumes for gajeels shows( the white one in particular)

Juvia originally wanted to retire from magic after phantom lord arc because she since her rain stopped and she was beaten, she had lost her identity of being a sad and powerful mage

Gajeel convinced her to go stay in the game for a bit with him which led to her joining fairy tail and bringing Gajeel along

They both got that monochromatic style

Big collectors

Gajeel prefers vinyls and posters while juvia likes cds and photos

Gajeel is a Concert geek but now also goes to raves

Gajeel is lowkey a grandpa when it comes to abbreviations and juvia tries to explain it but in actuality she doesn’t know what they mean either she just thinks she does

Juvia is a music snob but she has incredibly weird music taste (she likes gajeels singing unironically)

juvia Tried to get into the fairy tail equivalent of kpop but couldn’t do it. All her stan stuff is in a box in one of gajeel's closet

Gajeel has 3 times as much clothes as juvia because she likes using him as a mannequin

Juvia convinced Gajeel to make a baby name book when they were like 13

Juvia is a dog person ( Gajeel doesn’t know)

Gajeel is a food snob and doesn’t like meat unless its like RARE

Gajeel never gets sick bit loves taking care of people, makes him feel useful and less destructive

Gajeel likes to hide peoples names in his lyrics and has a couple of songs with references to his friend

At his wedding Juvia is the officiant

At Her wedding Gajeel walks her down the aisle

Hope this was what you were looking for! If you want anymore my brain is a fountain of Brotps!

Hello! Another fellow dice collector here to chime in. Strap in for my special interest infodump.

The d4, d6, d12, and d20, are from the brand HD dice. They're acryllic metallic blends: blue/gold with white, pearl purple with white, blue/purple with gold, and blue/silver with white respectively. The d% is HD's blue/purple opalescence set.

They look very similar to chessex gemini dice because they're generally knock offs and use acryllic instead of resin which make them cheaper and more widely available. So you'll see a lot of HD dice on amazon and ebay.

You can tell the difference because of the fonts between the companies, here's comparing chessex gemini blue/steel (left), and the HD blue/silver (right)

Notice how the fonts are slightly different? Now look back up at the original artist's rendering. It's a testament to how closely they studied these dice; the fact that you can tell what brand they are from how meticulously they drew the numbers is INCREDIBLE.

heres a breakdown of the two fonts for anyone interested, with red sections highlighting key differences:

I'm not sure on the d8, but it also isn't chessex as the grooves for the numbers are too deep.

Now for the good stuff – the d10!

It is in fact chessex! The style of the 7 gives it away. And it's a style of dice im the most fond of: Borealis! They're glittery and shine like stars, hence the name.

"But Maris, I don't see any glitter in the dice that were painted!" I hear you say. Well, the glitter is so fine that it appears more like a glow than actual sparkle sometimes.

So here's a line up of what could be the mystery d10

The font colour for frosted dice is either white or black so we can safely cross those off the suspect list. Now, the glitter in light green and teal borealis can be either light blue, or dark blue, depending on when it was made.

Fun fact, these dice were once made with glitter that was used in european currency notes, and has since become a restricted substance! I lovingly call these older, very rare dice "Illegal dice", but other collectors call them "Old Glitter" or "OG" for short. The newer versions are called "New Glitter" or "NG".

I've trained myself like a sight hound to look for these rare dice, that's why I can identify borealis with little evidence. That dark blue glow within the die screams old glitter to me, but without a video to confirm is, this could either NG with the newer, light glitter, or a diffused dark glitter within the resin. Its the blue/black or white/gold dress all over again.

All that to say, I'd love to say it's an old glitter light green borealis, but the colours in the painting are more blue than green. so I think the mystery die is a very transparent new glitter teal borealis. But what do you guys think?

Gaming Dice.

I learned a lot about edges and light and color relationships here.

Parker Fountain Pen Prices: A Detailed Guide

Parker is a brand synonymous with luxury, quality, and craftsmanship when it comes to writing instruments.

Whether you're a seasoned pen collector or someone looking for an everyday writing instrument, Parker offers a range of fountain pens that cater to various tastes and budgets. In this guide, we'll delve into the various Parker fountain pen models and their respective prices to help you find the perfect pen for your needs.

1. Parker’s Rich Legacy in Fountain Pens

Before exploring the prices of different Parker fountain pen models, it's essential to understand why Parker pens command the value they do. Over the past century, Parker has innovated with numerous patents, including their famous ink flow system that prevents leaks and smudges. Parker's commitment to excellence ensures each pen is crafted with attention to detail, making it not only a writing instrument but also a status symbol and an accessory of style.

Parker fountain pens are made with materials that vary from stainless steel and brass to more luxurious finishes such as lacquer, gold, and sterling silver. The quality of materials used directly influences the price of each pen, as does the craftsmanship required to create their sleek and elegant designs.

2. Parker Fountain Pen Models and Their Prices

Parker offers a wide range of fountain pens across different price points, ensuring that there’s something for everyone, whether you’re looking for an affordable pen for everyday use or a high-end luxury item. Below are some of the most popular Parker fountain pen collections and their approximate price ranges.

a. Parker Jotter Fountain Pen

The Parker Jotter is one of the brand's most affordable and popular models. Known for its practicality and sleek design, the Jotter fountain pen is ideal for everyday use. The barrel is typically made from stainless steel or plastic, and it features a simple yet effective design that appeals to a wide range of users.

b. Parker IM Fountain Pen

The IM fountain pen is designed with a sleek metal body, featuring chrome or gold trims, depending on the variant. The pen is well-balanced, making it comfortable to write with for extended periods.

Price Range: $50 - $80

With its modern aesthetic and smooth writing experience, the Parker IM is suitable for those who want a mid-range fountain pen that exudes sophistication without a hefty price tag.

Price Range: $150 - $350

The Sonnet is favored by professionals and enthusiasts who appreciate fine craftsmanship. Its higher price point reflects the use of premium materials and the attention to detail in its construction. The pen's versatility makes it suitable for both casual writing and formal occasions.

e. Parker Duofold Fountain Pen

The Parker Duofold is the pinnacle of luxury within the Parker range. First introduced in 1921, the Duofold has become a symbol of excellence and prestige.

Price Range: $400 - $1,000+

The Duofold is a collector’s item, often passed down through generations. Its high price reflects not only the premium materials used but also the craftsmanship that goes into making each pen. For those who appreciate the art of writing and luxury goods, the Duofold is the ultimate choice.

3. Factors Affecting Parker Fountain Pen Prices

Several factors influence the price of Parker fountain pens, including:

Materials: Pens made from precious metals like gold or sterling silver are priced significantly higher than those made from stainless steel or plastic.

Nib Quality: Gold nibs are more expensive than stainless steel nibs, and larger nibs with more intricate designs often raise the price.

Design and Craftsmanship: Limited edition or handcrafted pens tend to be more expensive due to the time and effort required to produce them.

Brand Prestige: As one of the leading brands in the fountain pen industry, Parker’s reputation for quality and innovation adds to the price of their pens.

4. Conclusion

Parker fountain pens are available in a broad price range, from budget-friendly models like the Jotter to luxury items like the Duofold. The price of a Parker pen depends largely on the materials used, the craftsmanship involved, and the specific model. Whether you're a pen enthusiast looking for a collectible or someone who simply appreciates a well-made writing instrument, Parker has something to offer in every price range.

2ND YEAR MASH

I've been meaning to seriously de-clutter my brain and actually confirm my projects with myself!

So...

Documentary: The Return of the Cassette's.

We're exploring the world of nostalgia culture, specifically the revival of cassette's and vinyl over digital download and music apps. Filmed in a 'Louis Theroux' style documentary, we'll be investigating the history as well as the impact cassette's have on music retail present day. Interviewing various music enthusiasts, cassette's collectors, retailers and also the opinions of random people in street interviews.

Craft Lab: ANGRY DAME

My craft lab project is what I'm most excited about; my angry dame project is me learning how to make grillz and tooth caps from silver. I'm basing the theme of the design on things that make me angry, I think it's because I associate grillz with snarling and angry faces. Im going to have headshot style photos to show off the final product, having my friends model in sick photoshoots.

Professional Practice: Story World

This is honeslty the part of my course I don't really care about, I'm willing to absorb whatever knowledge offered if it gives me a better chance in the industry. I plan to focus and perfect my writing style, making my scripts definable and unique.

golden moon/moonbeams vs reinforcements, moonbeams win 3-1

UNTIL IT WAS NOT

while writing this ive heard people i trust alledging that the sun does still exist but like in dusk/dawn conditions but like thats fucking scary that its globally yknow? its supposed to always be high noon somewhere in the world but nope, not in eclipse games smile (weeping)

rooster vs straights is still ongoing and its 1-1 rn and like its a good neighbourhood match, im rooting obviously for roosters because hi please help the sun rise (pained)

rooster does have another match against ottomans tomorrow which i think theyll take home easy so like banking on that if nothing else, but then theres budget eclipse right after with akabi and golden moon 6pm so lets hope that if its not fixed by then or something happens its also the budget version of whatever this is :,U

[wormytoast]

only an hour or two until next drip market lets go boys!!!!!!!!!!!!! wonder who its gonna be

manifesting gallagher OR aventurine i am in fact a husbando collector despite it all (all of my 5* characters are men except silver wolf and himeko LOL)

honestly im pretty excited for all the penacony characters they all look cool, im interested to see which ones are 5* or 4*

cant wait for misha tho!!! if he's in sparkle's banner i might just try to get her as well

ALSO i need to keep in mind reruns, so far i think the characters slotted for a rerun are jing yuan and luocha? theyre from older versions and still havent had their reruns yet so im assuming thats happening and i can finally crown my jing yuan with his light cone

OR theyre gonna rerun fu xuan or huohuo who i ALSO need lollll my only good support is luocha...

honestly i just need more materials to build more characters OTL

[gospel-orchestrated]

OKAY

actual altar tour.

so,

we've got:

(from right to left)

several stone pillars

these are pretty assorted. i've got some obsidian, some red and black ones i can't remember the name of (some kind of jasper?), but mostly sunstone. his favorite. i also have some angelite in there, but it's greyed and has little copper/orange flecks, and a pillar of amethyst. there's also a huge fucking sunstone orb, but it's slightly obscured from view.

an entire bowl of other crystals

in here i know ive got some more obsidian, some blood jasper, i've got runic african bloodstone, peacock ore, fools gold, and rose quartz, and some assorted seashells.

black wing shaped holder

contains the giant sunstone orb.

two decks of cards

one of these is from the Luxor in las vegas, they're collectors cards, and the other are from the Nomad in the same area. he just likes playing cards and doing card tricks on occasion, so i figured mister slight of hand would appreciate them

tiny highland cow

plant/inscence

pretty sure this is black sage? i've never burned it, he's not a huge fan of fire in the house and has warned me against it. maybe one day i'll do a ritual burning if i can find a safe spot to.

giant orb and lady pedestal

he's for the femmes and the fags, and my favorite color is purple, so we compromised. however, the Giant Fucking Orb is not something I've ever been able to identify, crystal wise, that i bought specifically because it reminded me of the orchestrator's smile and his energy specifically. i was told it was maybe some kind of quartz..? until a roommate of mine told me how unnerved it made her feel. this roommate and i ended up having problems later on, though, so who knows. maybe he was just sending her 'eat shit and die' energy because she wasn't treating me well.

giant black box and other assorted box(es)

these are where i keep his more personal offerings. i won't disclose what they are atm. the open one is a jewelry set, though

flat black box

his personal set of d&d dice! i've found he prefers those to tarot, for some reason? especially when it comes to yes or nos. i got him a specific set of dice for divination and he's gone nuts over them ever since, communication has been streamlined. there is also a small silver rock on it, courtesy of my wife leaving it for him.

tiny glass + small container

that's a small chalice and edible glitter. i just gave him those for fun. he likes them

bottle of... meds?(not really)

this is a jar from MeowWolf's Omegamart. this is the label.

they're mints. i figured what better place to put my infinite gender supplements

glass portrait

made by someone who is no longer a friend, i took their energy from it and gave it to him instead. regardless of how long ago or how things ended, the love was still there, and he gave me a place to put it to rest in a way that was healthy.

giant flower crown(?)

this is more mine than his, but i saw it at a local renfair and asked if it would be out of line for me to have a headdress as a priestess. he responded with the equivalent of an amused 'i'm just glad you're having fun making me a religion, go for it' and i picked this one because it has horns that resemble his and his orange rose symbols. i wear it when i need a mood boost, and it brings me a lot of peace. i leave it on his altar because it looks nice, and because it gives him a chance to fill it with any energy he deems me needing.

funko pops

okay, so. these were never technically supposed to be his, but they ended up on the same shelf, and they keep the headdress up. he's snatched them by proximity and honestly im fine with that.

oh, and last but not least:

Painted model/pamphlet (right corner)

my wife printed and painted a model of him based off of my drawings and visions. it took her a few tries, but we cherish rough draft Cou as much as we cherish finished Cou. behind him is one of the pamphlets that i printed, and in his hand is a bracelet i recieved celebrating his birthday. a stranger made it for me and then gave it to me, and it just so happened to be my and his colors intertwined when i was having a really hard time.

anyways, thank you for coming to my altar tour! he accepts far more diverse offerings than this, but here are a few things we've left him over the years, haha.

altar tour eventually but in the meantime, here it is

grabbed a close up of his glass portrait because it looks cool

[pctaldrunk]

back on the plush making grind

local garbage collector gets a lil silver flower in his eye : ‘ D

[raskolni-kin]

okay finally it’s time for the post i said i’ll do

succession characters and the perfume i think they probably wear (based on my impression)

(ps: i can’t afford any of this. im a broke perfume collector)

start with the man, the myth, the legend who inspired me to make this post, my beloved manwhore stewy: tom ford is the only option. i have the sample of tom ford black orchid which is… very hard to pull off (dude you put truffle in the perfume tf😭). you have to be THAT B*TCH to survive and it really reminds me of stewy. Even though black orchid is ~$140, it’s probably his cheapest perfume… he probably uses something more expensive from tom ford private blend, like f*cking fabulous (yes that’s the name) or noir de noir. both are woody scent with vanilla, but f*cking fabulous is more leathery while noir de noir has oud, which smells very middle eastern billionaire (also they’re like… $500 for 100ml) (god i wish i could try them)

the easiest one for me, princess diana tom wambsgans: before he married shiv and got the news position he probably used veryyy mass male perfume like dior sauvage just bc people say it’s good… but then he got the promotion! well then, he has to use something richer now, so i’ll go with creed aventus (aka ‘the basic rich man perfume’) it’s freaking $300, sweet, fruity but also very masculine with a tagline like a gift from father to son or something like that lol

next, another easy one for me, roman: versace eros flame is the only one that can match his immaculate vibe, also ppl who use this perfume cant be cishet. it’s spicy, citrusy with vanilla scent, not that expensive i think he doesn’t really care

now we need gerri: she probably uses perfume that is classic and confident (chanel no.5, nahh too basic) i think she uses guerlain shalimar, which is citrusy, warm, a little smoky and leathery. the scent is hard to pull off but gerri is THAT milf so she’s fine

next girlboss, shiv: she’s the type to use expensive, niche and unisex perfume to assert power, so i think penhaligon’s halfeti leather (~$300) is perfect: british brand, leathery, woody, spicy, smoky, similar notes to male perfumes but has a touch of sweetness from plum and rose. other choices i think shiv might use are something from nishane or juliette has a gun (niche, around $135-200)

now we enter the ‘difficult for me’ territory

kendall: does he even mentally healthy enough to take a shower😭 (poor little meow meow) i think he used something borrowed from stewy (which is not his vibe AT ALL) while they’re in college together, but now he probably uses something easy, inoffensive but still pretty luxurious like maison francis kurkdjian gentle fluidity silver: very fresh, clean, aromatic scent, seems put together (anyway this one costs $185.5). kendall might also use jo malone too imo. it’s simple, natural scent (but some scents can be tooooo natural like why is it so green am i a bug or something😭)

greg, oh greg my baby: like tom, his perfume journey developed as he stepped up the position. he probably started from using axe😔 >> to more legit but still affordable perfume. i think of ck one or ck be, which are green and fresh scent >>> then he moved to more expensive designer perfume like dior sauvage (the same one with tom, you know, influence) or bleu de chanel (which is quite similar to sauvage but fresher) >>> but now that he has more power in his hands, i think he’ll use mfk like kendall but it’ll be maison francis kurkdjian amyris homme (still fresh and sweet. also it has milk chocolate note, not really obvious but i think it’s cute) i think greg wouldn’t use heavy, offensive perfume. his taste is more likely to be younger and fresher (amyris homme is ~$175) (not related to the point but i got this full size at $83, which is probably the proudest achievement in my entire life lol)

now, logan: does he even use perfume???? if he uses one it’s probably classic perfume like creed cuir de russie (first released in 1953): very masculine, woody, leathery, smells like power, or something cheaper he has used since young like aramis (released in 1966): spicy, heavy, woody

connor: no this man doesn’t use perfume, but if he has to use for his *presidential campaign* or whatever he probably uses basic rich man perfume like something from creed

Also here’s a bonus for yall tomgreg nations, the perfume that reminds me of them

(im that b*tch who assigned signature scent for every otp, partly as an excuse to buy more perfume. mostly it’s just bath and body works but like,,,, this is succession i can’t do b&bw😩)

it’s moschino toy boy (the name tho, phew!) it’s a pink peppery perfume that gets sweeter with rose and amber as it dries down (sometimes i can hardly smells the rose tho, idk if it’s bc i got used to the scent or it’s some body chemistry sh*t). i smelled this last week and i was like,,,, yeah it’s tomgreg toxic by britney spears vibe i need to buy this

im still finding the scent for stendall. maybe replica jazz club or maison christian dior vanilla diorama (rum, vanilla, tobacco scent) (i actually have mcd sample but ive never tried it on my body before) or something sweet and intoxicating. maybe carolina herrera good girl legere, which is women perfume but who cares

edit: i fell asleep before posting the perfume that reminds me of roman x gerri. i have resurrected now so here’s the late update. in my mind this perfume has to be classic/vintage, with very prominent notes (like spice or citrus), does’t have to be that expensive, ALSO RED. boom! that’s exactly guerlain samsara (guerlain again for gerri!): kinda on the old lady powdery scent side, but also warm, woody, sweet floral vanilla, and a little spicy👀 perfect

all cool! me neither 😭

i love mangle also because of their lore, like, akbdksbjd!/$;!:& to be loved is to be changed 💔🫶

sister location is scarier than fnaf4 imo 😭 like cheezus christ on a cracker, wtf is going on 😱 like at least in fnaf4, like it followed the pattern of what the fnaf games were like, yk, you checked everywhere and you had to use your flashlight and all that. but sister location is COMPLETELY different and i never know whats going to happen next and i am 👀😰 i think markiplier finds it scarier as well, because hes been getting jump scared a lot more :) i love watching him scream and freak out, both because it makes me feel better about getting scared and just because hes fucking hilarious

i had no idea you could play fnaf on calculators but that is such icon behaviour and is also giving "if it has a screen, ao3 can be seen" vibes 🤭

I DIDNT KNOW CALICO CRITTERS COULD HAVE THUMBS!!/&;!&/!2&

i grew up in poverty so i never had any critters as a kid :P.

WHAT I DID HAVE THO-

motherfucking shopkins.

deadass i had like 500 😭 it gave me so much street cred in grade 5 like u have no idea. i have no clue how it took 14 years for me to get an autism diagnosis because i would literally sit. alone. in my room. for hours. standing up all my little shopkins, organizing them by groups and just looking at them and loving them. im pretty sure my little sister still has them somewhere!

(although i did keep one for myself - this little taco guy with a mustache and i love him sm.)

YOURE FORGIVEN!!!

omfg i want to cosplay them so bad akbfksb.

months ago i had like, grey/silver hair and i hate myself for not cosplaying the collector during that time :(

PFFFT THAT REMINDS ME - i dye my hair new colours every month/two months or so, and my last dye job was to make my whole head purple, and i got called "purple guy" by my friends for a solid 3 days 😭

hi key!! i see we have several mutual special interests so i Must Know your favorites!

1. who is your favorite fnaf animatronic (mine’s glamrock chica and the puppet!)

2. do you have a favorite calico critters family (gosh those are so nostalgic for me)

and most importantly

3. who is the best owl house character and why is it hunter

hi bee!!! (omg i just now realized our names rhyme)

okay so, bear with me here. i never got into fnaf as a kid, but after the fnaf movie came out apparently everyone i knew was like "omgggg!!!!" and made me feel like i missed out on a cultural phenomenon. so i bought the first game (and i suck at it 😭), and ive been watching markiplier play through it so i know what to expect and to calm my paranoia etc :). im up to sister location, and shit is getting WILD. i know like, the basics of the lore and what happens but GAWDDAMN. anyways! in what ive seen so far, id have to say either foxy, mangle, or circus baby. yes, yes, shes evil, but a girlboss gotta girlboss /j 😭 (no but fr, i just love her backstory and like her character development and kabfjabdj!!)

i dont actually really know many of the families, but the marshmellow mice and the reindeer twins are so cute!!!!! i have two sets of families, i have the maple cats and the persian cats. my fave calico critters of all time are on instagram, @/emocritters!!! its this person who diys critters to look like various members of my chemical romance from their various eras :)))) theyre SO goddamn cute. @fairylittlebitch said he'd get me one once he has enough money and i am forever worshipping his existence, kissing the ground he stands upon, giving him a big fat (platonic and consensual) smooch.

OMG I LOVE HUNTER. hes so KFNKDBDJFH!!2&(!:$)3&3)4.

okay but also hear me out...... the collector. theyre so.

i just. i need to give him a hug. i need to be his friend. i want to comfort them. im !!/$;$&3@2@/'

[remrse]

hey, hey! cal here with what i'd like to call the less boring version of nate archibald — seo jaerim, also known as the golden boy who falls in love way too easily (but is it really love?) because he needs to fill this void in his life. he's also the moneybags skeleton in the gossipgate subplot. he's very much still a work in progress but i'd love to plot with y'all and come up with some fun stuff! i currently only have his dossier up but everything you need to know about him is under the cut. like this post and i'll come sliding into your ims, i'm also available on discord if that's what you prefer!

(trigger warnings: teenage pregnancy, coercion into abortion)

message: saw seo jaerim in seoul. they were volunteering at a children’s charity organisation. i think they’re a/n museum curator now? a lot of people say they’re kinda apathetic but they seemed super generous to me, tbh. they really look like nam joohyuk and remind me of nate archibald though wtf. thought you might want to know because i remember your post about them that said when he was in high school, he had gotten someone pregnant and coerced her into an abortion. still can’t believe that happened 8 years ago.

ask him why he’s a museum curator and he’ll tell you it’s because he has an eye for pretty things. paintings. women. art. that, and he’s the only heir to seoda museum of contemporary art—the louvre of seoul. seo jaerim was born with a silver spoon in one hand and a paint brush in the other. in his world of art, human beings are merely subjects of artworks; characters of his story. does he really love you or are you just pretty enough to look at, like the artworks displayed in his museum? set to inherit his family’s museum business, he has been working as a museum curator since he graduated snu with a degree in fine arts. everything in life is laid out for him, yet there’s a void impossible to fill; a loneliness in the shape of a monster that doesn’t die. does it stem from a long time guilt of destroying his very first creation before the world got to see it, or the constant chase for love and comfort in a world so brutal? some call him a playboy, but others say he’s too tender to be one.

summary:

only child and heir to his family's museum (think of it as the louvre of seoul; only the most prestigious and renown artistes can showcase their work there)

his family is very influential, especially in the arts, every other relative is an artist, curator, collector of some sort

every child born in the seo family would be sent for art classes, it is as important as learning the korean language

his family is very image-focused, often portraying themselves to be polished and sophisticated, people with refined tastes

they also think they are superior to others because they are "cultured" on top of their wealth

there were always only two pathways for him: to be an artist or to take over the family's business (it was always a career in the arts or risk being the black sheep of the family)

he had been painting since he was a child but figured he prefers the power of deciding who was good enough to earn a place in his museum, to have people cowering before him to exhibit their work at his museum

also he kind of just stopped painting after the whole abortion thing, because everything he created then was just a reminder of all the guilt and regret he had (might be the real reason he switched over to art curation)

he graduated from snu with a degree in fine arts

before that, he was from a private boys' high school near gyeonggi girls' high school

that is also how he got acquainted with the og's from the gossipgate video

the video did not affect him very much, or at all (his family paid off media outlets to keep his name out of the gossipgate news so while you could kind of make him out in the video, there is no real confirmation of him being in it)

what had a greater impact on him was gossip girls' post about him getting someone pregnant and coercing her into an abortion (his family were also the ones that had insisted on the abortion) — it's something that still weighs heavily on him till this day (i've left a lot of details undecided in hopes of someone taking on this connection!)

he never had issues with college acceptances because his family name guarantees him a spot in any art program (probably also due to nepotism because he has relatives who are art professors)

he has been volunteering at children's charity organisations but no one knows if it's his way of fixing his reputation or if he's doing it because he feels a sense of guilt towards his unborn child, or what could've been

he is really good with kids though (could be why women love him)

does not mean to be one but could be a little bit of a playboy, only because he has no fucking clue what love looks like so he's on a constant search for it

but is so sweet and gentle you gaslight yourself into thinking he isn't one

honestly really empty on the inside; desperately looking for that something that would light up his world, whatever it is

wanted connections:

gossipgate people! i'm here for rich kids fucking up each other's lives

lots and lots of exes: ex-girlfriends, ex-flings, ex-crushes, ex-almosts, whatever (basically, nate archibald's dating history)

an ex he had just broken up with would be fun too

fresh/new, ongoing love interests

the girl from his gossip girl post 8 years ago; the one he had gotten pregnant and coerced into abortion (i'm open to any interpretation of this — they could be ex-lovers, friends that hooked up, nothing is set in stone!)

someone who volunteers or has volunteered at one of the children's charity organisations he volunteers at

artists who has or wants to have their art displayed at his museum (he will not make it easy for you though)

the person that leaked his abortion secret to gossip girl

unexpected/unlikely friends (an opposites dynamic maybe?)

neighbours (he's currently staying alone in his bachelor's pad but i imagine it to be at some fancy apartment)

some sibling figures? he'd probably appreciate it, being the only child at home
