Tangled Mess: Solitare
Summary: Studying is tiring. Somehow you know exactly how to help Hoseok refocus during a long and tiring studying session.
Paring: Hoseok x GN Reader, Yoongi x Jungkook
Genre: Soulmate AU, Grad School AU, Young Professional AU, Angst, Fluff
Warnings: A Breakup
Word Count: 362 words
A/N: Super late lol. Been away and sick so I wasn't super active. But the series is back up and Imma queue a few too!
Part 4 << Masterlist >> Part 6
Tumblr media
Hoseok needed a break. This was something he knew on so many levels, his body aching from sitting in the cafe chair for four hours, his head throbbing from too much caffeine, his brain fuzzy from too many hours of memorization, and his heart hurting from confusion. 
Hoseok couldn’t take a break though. The final for his Victorian era fashion class was in two days and if he didn’t get all this information memorized, he was going to be at risk of failing the class… which could set him back from graduating. 
Rest was a privilege that Hoseok didn’t have access to. Despite taking a week off of his part time job to study more (only made possible because Seokjin, the amazing roommate he is, offered to cover 3/4 of the rent this month so Hoseok could work less). He needed to pass this class.
“Oh! Hello there!” 
His eyes snapped up, you were standing in front of him, all bundled up from the cold weather outside, a large smile warming the room. 
You can’t think like that Hoseok.
“Hi! How are you doing?” 
“Ok. Better now that I’m talking to you! I’ve not talked to anyone today.” You said with a laugh, “How are you?”
“Tired.” 
You nodded, letting a beat of silence brew between you before asking, “Is it ok if I join?”
“Sure! Although, I’ll be a horrible table mate,” Hoseok started organizing his notes and flashcards, “I have a final soon.” 
You winced and nodded, going off to the register to place an order. 
Soon enough, the two of you were working away in silence (well you were reading a book while Hoseok worked). That was until Hoseok grabbed his phone and started to scroll away, his brain too foggy to properly focus for a bit. It wasn’t a good habit, but scrolling through mindless media offered a pause to his mind that he desperately needed. 
“That’s some odd work you’re doing.” You said with a laugh, already looking at Hoseok when he looked up. 
“Oh. Yeah. I needed a break.” 
You nodded, “Rest is vital. How long have you been studying here?” 
“A few hours probably.”
“Damn. No wonder you needed the break. Will you be able to stop for the day soon?”
Hoseok shook his head.
“Hmmm. Then I will be here to help you relax while you’re breaking!” You laughed quietly before pulling out a deck of cards, “Have you ever played solitaire?” 
“Of course. I’m horrible at it though.”
“Perfect! I can teach you then! I’m amazing.” 
After clearing their table of everything but their drinks, Hoseok and you fell into a rhythm of playing solitaire. His coffee got cold before you stopped to let him work more but he didn’t mind. His heart raced every time your hands got close and he saw the small gap between the red strings but he tried to ignore it. His mind felt a little more tired but he surprisingly had more energy to get back into homework. 
His heart was even more confused though. You were just being friendly. Just friendly.

Alkakurei age shuffle au thoughts...
Music era events have been pushed up a year to give alkakurei characters more time to settle into their new positions (give suddenly younger characters a chance to have pivotal pre-story moments). Also some parts have been given more thoughts than others since this was originally made to focus more on some characters over others.
Alkaloid
Hiiro: (19-20) Rinne's older brother and the next in line to be the village monarch. Ever since his younger brother ran away suddenly, he has been waiting for the perfect opportunity to find him. When his father fell ill a few months prior, Hiiro declared his first action as monarch was to rescue his brother from the city. He is determined to destroy anything in his way of his mission.
Aira: (18-19) Ex-idol, currently a producer studying at Yumenosaki. He switched tracks during his third year and is staying an extra year to finish getting all the credits he needs to graduate. After a lack of work and basically getting fired from ES, Aira decided that maybe the stage wasn't for him. With the advice of Anzu, Aira steeled himself to instead support his favorite idols from the sidelines and become the greatest producer.
Tatsumi: (16-17) Skipped a few years and entered high school early after proving his skills as an idol Kanna-style. He is a year ahead of Jun and Kaname so Obbligato still occurs as originally described to avoid disturbing the other mainline characters. Despite returning to idol activities, he is avoiding returning to school for reasons he will not elaborate on. Other idols tend to treat him as older than his years even if he is still younger than them.
Mayoi: (15-16) After he was found living in the walls, Mayoi was enrolled at Yumenosaki as an idol. This is his first year being a proper idol, though he has spent many years observing them and helping them from the shadows.
Crazy:B
Kohaku: (20-21) Started working as a solo idol three years prior to shadow Tsukasa. When Tsukasa discovered his cousin was working as an idol a year later, he offered him a place in Knights which Kohaku declined for a long list of reasons. Tsukasa keeps this offer open, however. Kohaku was never a popular idol (being popular was never his goal), but his popularity has been waning in the past year like the other solo units. He's considering this a sign that his time in the light is running out and is making plans to go out with a bang so his nosy cousin won't try any last minute moves.
Niki: (17-18) Currently not an idol because he has worked so hard to stay in school and dang it, he is getting his diploma no matter what Rinne tries to pull. In his free time, he works at Cafe Cinnamon and the ES cafeteria to earn more money to feed both himself and Rinne.
Rinne: (15-16) Came to the city a year ago after snapping on the village and running away from home. He dreams of becoming an idol and has spent the past year working on making his debut to minor success. He hopes that Crazy:B will be his big break.
HiMERU: (???-???) Kaname would be turning 17 this year. Kaname lied about his age to get accepted into Reimei's middle school division earlier and thus enters Reimei in the same year as Jun. HiMERU, serial identity liar, didn't see an issue with this. HiMERU is currently working his best to act as HiMERU including pretending to be 17-18.
General Notes
Aira is assigned to produce Alkaloid and act as an Anzu proxy in Eichi's experiment to manufacture idols. He ends up dorming with the other three during the summer to make sure Hiiro doesn't do anything crazy and to help bond with the idols.
During the first summer, Alkaloid and Crazy:B only have three members each.
Kohaku is the only idol in Crazy:B who lives in the dorm since his apartment lease recently finished and he declined to renew it. Rinne lives at Niki's apartment and only goes to the dorm when it looks like food is running low and he doesn't want Niki sacrificing calories for his sake.
Kohaku plans to use Crazy:B as a way to self-destruct and force himself to go back underground without hurting the Suous or Oukawas. Admittedly, this not a well thought out plan until Rinne began sharing ideas for how Crazy:B could succeed and meet Cospro's impossible goals (through live crashing and lying). Over the summer, Kohaku unintentionally bonded with Rinne and HiMERU enough that he restructured Rinne's plans so that he could secretly take all of Crazy:B's sins and "die" with them, leaving his unitmates free to continue being idols. Rinne is unaware of this plan until the last minute ("you said we were all in this together!") since he never considered someone not wanting to be an idol and wanting to go back to their family.
Hiiro and Rinne have an unusual relationship due to their swapped positions in the village. Despite Hiiro's attempts to treat Rinne as his beloved younger brother, Rinne is observant and quick to understand his position in life. Nothing Hiiro could've done would have prevented the ticking time bomb inside of Rinne.
Not that Hiiro actively tried very hard. Hiiro can be a bit unobservant when he doesn’t want to see something and while he presents as a clever person (who aces all lessons), he still doesn’t want to see the worst in the village, and thus simply ignores how they say he should treat Rinne. So long as he doesn't actually treat his younger brother as disposable, then he won't feel that way, right? They can just live happily as brothers with Hiiro as the monarch and Rinne supporting him at his side. Or so Hiiro thought.

Tysm for the matchup! Ngl, I was a little surprised because I never thought of Yukimiya, so I was pretty excited to read through and see the reasoning!
After reading, though, I realized the pairing makes sense, and we have much more in common than I initially thought we did. I lowkey ended up giggling and kicking my feet, just imagining the little scenarios. The heart-fluttery feelings lasted about a minute until I remembered he was losing his sight, which was reinforced during my read-through, and then I just thought of pure angst LOL
Unfiltered live reaction/thoughts UTC; Slightly formatted for organization but is a chaotic ramble as per usual. Again, if anyone wants to go through, I don’t recommend because I like to yap, but if anyone wants to see me be delulu and less eloquent and well-spoken, then go for it wwww
Tumblr media
Wait, Yukimiya??? Really?! Inch resting…
• Given how I reacted just seeing his name, that checks out, lol, but a group high school project… Pretty sure this guy would be my senpai tho since Blue Lock takes place in 2018-2019, so I’m guessing it’s via club activities or extracurriculars like this dude is not doing well in art, and the teacher is asking me to help him out or smth 😅😂😅😂
• Tbh, I was surprised to hear that he would like my sassier side just bc he seems like the type who would like a church girl who reads her bible, but seeing as he is also straightforward and doesn’t mince his words as well, it makes sense. Especially since he’s generally likable and charismatic, he’s probably met and is used to all sorts of people.
• Now, this is my second time requesting a matchup, but I am now two for two on the motherly sort of personality being a deciding factor, and that’s just funny. Showing me bruises just to get me to worry about him, less so. If he ever admitted that to me, I’m gonna be a little peeved. I’d genuinely be concerned. Don’t play with my heart like that bc I care for you— ☹️☹️☹️
• Yeah, it took him losing something precious and me gaining something precious for that… It’s good for bonding, but the potential for angst is real, so I can’t say I see things going or ending very well if he pushes himself so much;;; In regards to the relationship, though, it’s bittersweet, to say the least. Luckily, that happens to be my favorite type of chocolate! /hj 😌
• I would be interested in biographies! Depending on the person and era, lol. Sitting side by side on the bed while reading sounds nice, especially on days with gloomier weather, but on a nicer day out, I can see library and manga cafe dates being a thing too, ehehe.
• The way I laughed when I read this point. Breaks are very important for artists to prevent all sorts of potential health issues, though I’m pretty sure it’s a different game and beast altogether for Yukimiya with his optic neuropathy. Anyway, I guess it depends on what I’m working on for whether I’d be comfortable or not. Given his other job as a model, though, he might end up being my muse instead if he sticks around long enough. He is a pretty boy, after all.
• Baking and cooking can fall under acts of service, which is one of my love languages, so the most help I’d ask for from him is taste-testing. He’s gonna have to bring up helping to me otherwise. On the topic of doing a clumsy waltz, though, at least he’ll look endearing while doing so. It’s not the usual genre, but I do dance. The first time he tries to pull this, we might end up with a waltz lesson on our hands instead, so the food might end up cold regardless… Whoops. At least the chances of that will decrease as time goes on with improvement..? 😅
• All I can say about flustering me with kisses is good luck with that. If it’s about flustering me, I’m more likely to be amused with each and every attempt. He’s better off not trying in that regard. It’s the small, nonchalant, but intimate actions that are likely to get me. Once he figures that out, though, it might be game over for me. He’d definitely be pampered from hell to back if I saw him coming back absolutely exhausted.
• So I’m also two for two on being told I’m part of what is basically an ideal pair, so that’s also very amusing. Admittedly, I’m not very into MBTI, though I do find the concept and prospect to be fun and entertaining, and looking into it a bit, the match sounds ideal and provides a good balance, which I like very much and can get behind.
𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐮𝐩 𝐟𝐨𝐫 @bibururokku
Your ideal match is…Yukimiya Kenyu!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
♡ As charming as Yuki is, he isn't overly friendly and doesn't seem like the kind of person you would end up being friends with naturally. Which leads me to believe the two of you were grouped together for a project in high school, creating the opportunity to get to know each other. He would be drawn to your cute and sweet demeanor, and seek to spend more time with you even after the project ends.
♡ When you get to know him enough to start being sassy, it's a pleasant surprise for him. He wasn't expecting your sense of humor to be like that, since you seem like such a nice and chill person, but he gets used to easily enough. He quite likes this side of you actually, as he's also the straightforward type that doesn't mince words.
♡ He stated his type as someone who will always watch over him, so when you both grow close enough for you to be more concerned for his wellbeing, it's over for him. He's plenty independent, but perhaps he likes having you check up on him. A while after he realised he developed a crush on you, he cheekily showed you his bruises from training just to get you to worry about him for a bit a few times.
♡ Your explanation for why you live life to the fullest without taking things for granted sounds just like Yukimiya, though your reasons do differ. Yuki likes ephemeral things like cherry blossoms, likely because they remind him of how things are fleeting and never guaranteed, like his eyesight. His diagnosis gave him a strong sense of Mono no Aware, allowing him to appreciate everything in a new light. Pertaining to you, he treasures every moment spent with you and tries to make sure you know it. Once you two begin dating, whenever you have to go your separate ways, his hold on your hand always lingers longer than necessary, and he bids you goodbye with a kiss to the cheek.
♡ Reading is also one of his hobbies, so that's something you both bond over! He likes reading biographies about the lives of important people, which you might be interested in due to your liking for historical books? Likewise, he's also likely to be interested in your historical books, perhaps slice of life too. The scene of the two of you, sitting side by side on bed, engrossed in a book is quite common.
♡ His worst subject is art (because it strains his eyes), so he appreciates your drawing abilities and how you're attending art school. It's the kind of thing where one admires their weakness being a strength in someone else. He likes to see what you're working on, because the process is more interesting to him than the final product. But if you're not comfortable with showing him, he won't push for it.
♡ Yukimiya doesn't bake or cook often, but he's happy to help you when you do it then watch as you get to work. He'll put some background music on if you don't do that already, which usually leads to him pulling you into a clumsy waltz in the kitchen while the food waits on its plate. The waltz is clumsy because he doesn't actually know how to dance, he just pulls you around in what he thinks a waltz looks like. Most of the time he has enough self-control to end the dance before the food goes cold. Most of the time.
♡ His giving love languages suit you so well! I'm sure I've made quality time obvious enough, and physical touch was teased a little in the Mono no Aware point. He likes having excuses to snuggle up close to you even when outside, like under an umbrella when it's raining or during the winter when it's super cold. He's such a gentleman, definitely loves giving kisses to your hand (to fluster you). He really appreciates your giving love languages as well! He secretly likes being pampered, and will melt internally whenever you do things for him, especially after a tiring day of soccer practice.
♡ Finally, INFPs and ENFJs are known as a golden pair! They're highly compatible, usually having similar values which makes for a harmonious relationship. The both of you are so considerate of each other, caring and willing to compromise. Couple goals honestly.

The Return of the Premier Chaotique
Marinette was only eight years old when her primary school life changed for the better.
On that fateful day, in Mlle. Gilbertine’s classroom was the introduction of a new transfer student. He introduced himself as Damian; there was no last name. And if there was one, Gilbertine made sure she didn’t say a word of it.  
To Marinette, Nino, Chloe, Nathaniel, and Kim, he was an odd boy. Someone that would fit right into their group after a push, as Damian stressed for no social interactions with anyone.
During the early weeks of his stay, Marinette had caught him several times engaging in lonesome activities, whether they were in the classroom or out in the field messing around. Marinette, being the outgoing child that she was, began to plot.
Created from that plotting period was her life’s mission to befriend the emotionless kid.
It was hard at first.
She and the others tried tricking the young man into hopscotch matches, and when that didn’t work, it was a game of red light, green light. Occasionally, Nino and Kim would challenge Damian to dance battles.
Damian was very much against the childish games claiming that they were beneath him, but humored them into defeat.
That was until Marinette decided on a shooting game with water guns and makeshift go-carts out of bike parts. Damian’s eyes lit up with excitement, and Marinette knew right then and there that she finally fulled her goal.
After being soaked from head to toe and laughing amongst friends, Marinette and the others swore Damian into their friend group, thus changing their lives forever.
Soon newer and crazier games began to take over the classroom of Mlle. Gilbertine.
The moment Nino would bring out his portable CD player and the music began to boom out of the speakers, everyone knew what was about to happen.  
One day, while the group was in the school’s pool area pretending to be sea monsters attacking each other with kickboards and pool noodles, they were officially dubbed the “Premier Chaotique” cult. As they were youthful and the material they came up with was more chaotic than anything the future Hawkmoth could ever create.
Everyone knew that Marinette and Damian were the leaders. Together they oozed power, as Marinette was their strategist while Damian was the chief.
Chloe was their lawyer and location scout. The blonde knew what areas had cameras and heavy guarding. Kim was their chaotic developer. He knew what methods were more chaotic than the rest. Kim never failed to disappoint. Nino was their sound design and videographer in some cases. His love for filmmaking and DJing started here and continues to grow. Nathaniel was the tagger as he made sure every graffiti they did was perfect.
Nothing could ruin these kids.  
Mlle. Gilbertine, bless her soul, was determined to get the Premier Chaotique cult under control, but they were slick and made plans at random. She remembers the day when empty ice cream cups filled her classroom. Every desk was covered, and nothing could explain the appearance of snow sleds in the class.
It was no rumor that the mini cult managed to create their own little snow resort using ice cream and shave ice. It was a pain to clean up.
Marinette remembers the days when the mini cult would paint the city red with flowers and chaotic goodness. Or turning the entire city into a roller skate derby.
It’s a miracle that the cops never brought their parents into the investigation. Then again, with a child as pure as Marinette in the lead, people would fall over when they saw her smile.
Their significant achievement was when the school’s kitchen managed to catch on fire during a lunch period. During the evacuation, the group somehow managed to slip through the adults and back into the cafeteria.
Kim had brought marshmallows that day.
When the firefighters entered to put out the flames, the six children greeted them with wooden sticks eating s’mores and telling scary stories.
That fire had been their last valuable success because they experienced the worst nightmare a couple of days later, Damian had to go back to his home country.
It was heartbreaking for everyone within the cult but groundbreaking for the city.
Marinette fell into depression along with the others. After a month without Damian, they vowed to never speak of the best year of their life unless they were ever to meet Damian again.
It was no secret that Marinette had a crush on the foreign boy, so the cult disassembles along with any memories of Damian and the cult.
Years passed since that day.
Chloe took it upon herself to bully Marinette when they had entered college, as those who knew them in their younger days forgot that they were ever friends. Marinette took up fashion designing and making her seem like the perfect student. Nathaniel started working on comics based on their adventures. Nino stayed friends with all but Chloe and continued with his calling in music production. Kim began busying himself with sports, specifically swimming.
Soon the name that used to strike fear in the hearts of the Paris citizens began to fade away into a false memory.
Little did anyone know, the spirit of the Premier Chaotique cult lives on and would ignite in a blaze of fire.
At sixteen, Marinette works her butt off to make their end-of-the-school-year trip a reality.
The trip was not for the approval of her classmate, which has gone stale but for her sanity. Three years of being Ladybug have put a toll on her, and she plans to take advantage of the lack of akuma attacks going on.
When the acceptance letter landed in her hands, her parents swear they saw a boulder lifted off their daughter’s shoulders. She was smiling more and appeared less stressed than she had ever been since finding out the school board decided to move teachers with their students as a handful of teachers left Paris, some even left France altogether.
Her allies (remaining friends) were the first to know about the trip to Gotham, New Jersey, and they cheered happily for her. Lately, someone else has taken the credits for her work.
The day before the trip, Marinette rundown the patrol routes, and emergency protocols with Luka and Kagami, ensuring the safety of Paris if and when Hawkmoth decided to go active while the rest of the team was away.
She then goes on to convincing Kaalki to come with her to Gotham only to be used as an emergency. Marinette was ready to leave Paris and head to Gotham.
Upon entering the streets of Gotham, a cold chill runs down everyone’s spines aside from the former mini cult members. Too Mme. Bustier, the chill was all too familiar, bringing up memories of the kids that terrorized the streets before Hawkmoth. She looks around to see nothing out of place before promptly calling out her students so they would make it to the hotel.
Everyone who felt that chill had every right to be wary.
On the first day, everything seemed fine, but when you leave nearly all the members of Premier Chaotique alone for a moment, well, chaos was sure to happen.
Chloe and Marinette had put aside their differences during the Lila era of the classroom reign. Even after it was over, they managed to remain friends, rekindling the essence of primary friendship. The boys joined in on them not long afterward.
Plans were made but not yet enforced. It did not feel right, and they knew why– it was because they lacked their chief, the one and only Damian.
~☾★☽~
All Marinette wanted was a cup of coffee, but instead, she got something--someone much more pleasing.
Frozen in place, she calls out a single name, “Dames?” The dark-haired male turned around; she couldn’t breathe. Her eyes soften at the sight of her first crush. He hadn’t changed by much, though he was now taller than her.
“Mars?” That nickname sent the French-Asian teen running into the arms of the Ice Prince himself. Instead of pushing her away, he wraps his arms around her.  
Time froze in that café for several reasons, but the main one was definitely because they just witnessed Damian Wayne hugging someone willing.
Their embrace ends with them staring into each other’s eyes. It felt surreal. They couldn’t find the words to say, but they didn’t have to.
Life continues in the cafe as Damian leads Marinette away from the flashes of lights. It wasn’t long before Damian’s phone began to blow up with notifications. He turns his phone off and stuffs it back into his pocket.
With a mischievous glint in her eyes, Marinette pulls Damian in closer. Lifting herself onto her tip-toes, she whispers, “The others are here too.” into his ear. She steps away to see what she has unleashed, hoping that nearly a decade away from each other hasn’t altered their relationship.
This time it was Damian who smirks, bringing Marinette closer to him. “Mm, shall be bring Gotham to its knees?”
They share a smirk that ends with an explosion, thus, reigniting the Premier Chaotique cult with a burning passion for mayhem.
They decided to meet that night after hours.
Music blared in the streets of Gotham, seemingly close to the classroom’s hotel near Wayne Enterprise.
The members of Premier Chaotique strut down the middle of the streets in inflatable dinosaur suits dancing to the remixes that played from the boombox on one of the dino’s skateboards (Nino’s).  
Jamming to Bats @crazyforbats Did anyone else wake up to music and dancing dinos last night?
Bearbe @Bearbe Replying to @crazyforbats THAT WAS REAL!!??? I THOUGHT I WAS HULLACINATING
Krazie Kay @gokaykaer [A one-minute video with various strobe lighting colors flashing around and six dinosaurs doing the Cha-Cha-Slide] I swear I just saw @thebloodwayne for a split second.
Vera Pitts @vera_pitts [A short video of inflatable dinosaurs chaotically dancing to the Harlem Shake.] I thought this trend of over and done *crying emoji*
By the morning, Twitter was blowing up with various videos and gifs of the events that happened the night before. The only people who weren’t affected by the popularity were the people who were a part of it.
At Wayne Manor, Bruce could already feel a migraine coming as his two oldest play the videos repeatedly in the main room.
Damian scoffs at his family members, while Dick complains about why they haven’t thought of that for a family outing. It’s all about class, Dick; it’s all about class.  
Alfred, being all-knowing, takes notice of Damian's hidden smirks and recent purchase from his account at a party store. Nothing to worry about in this household. However, Damian asking him about where to find used pocket bikes (mini motorcycles) and wire rope reels was troubling.
The next night began the fears of every Parisian that experienced the reign. Blessed that it wasn't not happening in their city for once.
Per their plan assignments, Chloe and Kim found the buildings necessary for the zip line. Nino was in charge of setting up the equipment with the help of Nathaniel. Damian’s task was to get the bikes and zip line wire. Marinette’s job was to keep the class and others from finding out their plan.  
Once everything was ready, the Premier Chaotique entered their playground wearing hooded leotards (or bodysuits) with matching latex masks stretched over their eyes.
Kim went first down the zip line as Damian race down the streets on the bike. Initially, they were going to use the bikes, but the zip line couldn’t hold the weight of the bike and the person on it, so they turned it into a race instead. Of course, they put challenges throughout the route to make it more even.  
Their mayhem took a turn for the best when someone had called the cops, causing the for once silent night into a regular night of crime. Instead of stopping, like normal people, the mini cult went on a high-speed race against the GCPD.
Gotham’s Twitter users were having a blast with the events. It was the best and bravest thing to surface since Batman, though some were very vocal with their opposing thoughts.
The GCPD never caught the Premier Chaotique members, and they went on as if nothing happened.  
It was during the tour of Wayne Enterprise that the Premier Chaotique members learned Damian’s last name. He was an effing Wayne.
Marinette had asked Damian what his last name was when they were eight, and he replied nonchalantly with something along the lines of not being a Wayne until he was ten. Afterward, they continue hanging out and plotting throughout the tour.
After seeing their younger brother interact with teens his age, Dick specifically begs Bruce to invite the group while the rest stands there in shock. The sight of seeing Damian doing what they thought was impossible needed to go into the history books.
While it was a momentous occasion for Damian’s brothers, it was a reality check for Mme. Bustier. Her screams echo against the halls of WE as buried memories of the chaos awakens.
She stared pointedly at Marinette in denial. There was no way her star student was in the cult that did so much damage all those years ago. When Chloe, Nino, Kim, and quiet Nathaniel joined her, Caline started to feel faint. She immediately excused herself to call her therapist. Her wails for help could reach the lobby.
Bruce unknowingly invited even more chaos into his household that night.
It didn’t take Chloe and Marinette much to convince their teachers to let the five of them stay with Mr. Wayne for the night in hopes of “catching up” with Damian.
After getting the approval from Mr. Wayne and their parents, she agreed, secretly ecstatic that they wouldn’t be in her care for the next several hours.
~☾★☽~
“I’m bored. Let’s play a prank?” Kim randomly shouts, playing catch with himself, when they were all staring out the TV waiting for something good to come on.
“What do you have in mind?” Marinette asks, making her way over to Damian. He pushes her away, knowing that she’ll use him as a throne.
“Hey Dames, do you own go-carts are something of a familiar nature?”
Damian thinks about it for a minute, “Tt, father wouldn’t dare let those things in the house. We can prank my brothers. Scaring them would bring me joy.”
“Well I have a few ideas, we can use.” Chloe states, pulling out the book of mischief from her purse.
They all huddle over the book with smirks on their faces.

My Top 10 Underrated Anime Series
1. Welcome to the NHK
Tumblr media
Plot: The main protagonist is Tatsuhiro Satō, a university dropout entering his fourth year of unemployment. He leads a reclusive life as a hikikomori, ultimately coming to the conclusion that this happened due to some sort of conspiracy. One day just when his life seems entirely unchanging, he meets Misaki Nakahara, a mysterious girl who claims to be able to cure Tatsuhiro of his hikikomori ways. She presents him with a contract basically outlining that once a day they would meet in the evening in a local park where Misaki would lecture to Tatsuhiro in an effort to rid him of his lifestyle. During these outings, many subjects are discussed, though they almost always pertain in some way to psychology or psychoanalysis. One of their first meetings in fact deals with interpreting Tatsuhiro's recent dreams. Both Tatsuhiro and Misaki, however, have a tendency of over-doing things, such as hiding the truth, especially from each other and themselves. Despite Misaki's offer and pressing attempts at salvation, it is Tatsuhiro's neighbor and high school friend, Kaoru Yamazaki, whom Tatsuhiro often turns to in moments of need and support. Despite his own idiosyncrasies, Yamazaki is one of the more stable characters in the story.
While many may not know about this series, those who do know of its existence can see it’s appeal. This anime shows that some people, like the main character, are shut-in’s due to social anxiety holding them back from living a regular life. The anime deals with subjects such as social anxiety, hiding depression from loved ones, paranoia, and a crippling fear of never being accepted by the outside world. 
Throughout the series, Sato tries to go outside more often and is pushed to do this by a high school girl, Misaki, and his old classmate now neighbor, Kaoru. All the while, Sato meets some people from his past who cause him to go down a different path, such as becoming part of a ponzi scheme or joining a suicide group, because they themselves have problems that he unknowingly becomes a part of. This goes to show that if you have struggles with batting depression or have family problems...seek proper help before bringing others down with you.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
2. Tiger & Bunny
Tumblr media
Plot: The series takes place in "NC 1978" in a fictional, re-imagined version of New York City called Stern Bild City, where 45 years before, superpowered individuals known as "NEXT" (an acronym standing for Noted Entities with eXtraordinary Talents) started appearing and some of them became superheroes. Each of the city's most famous superheroes work for a sponsor company and their uniforms also contain advertising for real-life companies. Their heroic activity is broadcast on the popular television show "Hero TV", where they accumulate points for each heroic feat accomplished (arresting criminals or saving civilians, for example) and the best ranked hero of the season is crowned "King of Heroes". The story mainly focuses on veteran hero Kotetsu T. Kaburagi, a.k.a. Wild Tiger, who is assigned a new partner: a young man named Barnaby Brooks, Jr. However, Barnaby and Kotetsu have trouble working together, as they have conflicting opinions on how a superhero should act, while at the same time they are trying to crack the mystery of the murder of Barnaby's parents. In addition, the appearance of a homicidal vigilante NEXT named "Lunatic" stirs up the public and makes them question the place of heroes in the city. 
The main heroes, Kotetsu and Barnaby, do not like each other at first...but a strong bond grows between them as they protect the city and help each other from the tragic moments of their pasts. They even help each other with the problems that they face within the series’ current timeline: Kotetsu slowly losing his powers, and Barnaby being manipulated by someone who he thought of like family. 
While not as big as My Hero Academia, this series still has lots of good moments, terrific super heroes, and powerful storylines. Tiger & Bunny is definitely worth watching for anyone who loves superheroes and anime.

3. My Roommate Is A Cat
Tumblr media
Plot: Novelist Subaru Mikazuki, who is shy and not good with other people, and Haru, the cat that has been living a severe stray life. This is a story of them suddenly living together and describes the happiness of living together from both point of views.
This series is definitely underrated. My Roommate is a Cat is filled shows how much of an impact a person...or in this case a cat...can have on a person who has lived a life of solitude and books. The main character, Subaru Mikazuki, begins to slowly open up to those around him thanks to the help of a stray cat: Haru. From Haru’s point of view, Subaru is someone whom she desires to protect and take care of, as she fears that he cannot survive without her. Subaru also comes to term with his parents’ deaths and learns to move past his guilt, and realizes that there are many people who love and care for him.
This series shows that it’s ok to open up to the people around you, and that no one is truly alone.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4. And Yet The Town Moves
Tumblr media
Plot: Hotori Arashiyama loves mysteries, but there’s one she just can’t solve: why does the solution to one problem inevitably seem to lead to another? Like how when Hotori has to start working at the Seaside Maid Cafe after school to pay off a debt and her friend Toshiko fortunately knows exactly how a Maid Cafe should be run. Which is fortunate since Hotori has no clue. Except that, unfortunately, Toshiko has no interest in working at the cafe—until she discovers that Hotori’s childhood friend Hiroyuki is a regular. Which SEEMS fortunate. Except that Hotori doesn’t know that, while Toshiko likes Hiroyuki, Hiroyuki secretly likes Hotori, while Hotori secretly has a crush on… No, no more spoilers!But if that’s not enough drama, there’s work, angst with a certain math teacher, table tennis between her classmates, her younger brother versus the school’s bad girl… And yet, even though everything seems like it’s going to crash at any moment, somehow Hotori’s life keeps going hilariously forward.
Sure...it doesn’t have sexy and cute maids that most maid-theme anime has... But And Yet The Town Moves is still a series worth watching. The series features cute, slice-of-life storylines filled with antics by the mystery-loving Hotori Arashiyama. Because of her crazy antics and goofy nature, Hotori brings laughter and new experiences to those around her.

They say, "Never say never." In an instant - you don't even think about dancing and it's annoys you, but in another moment - you are ready to make a room with a pole in your future apartment, so that "he" dances only for you.
     - By today, the shooting of the video is over! Thank you all for the work done, everyone is free! - said the director, and the guys could finally exhale. The staff collected the decorations, and the guys went to the dressing rooms. They had ten minutes to change - a car was already waiting for them on the street to take them to the dorm.
Johnny was sorry to part with his clothes for filming, because he really loved the style that the stylists chose for him. When he went to the store himself, he could choose clothes like a bum-style type, which upset him. While Johnny was changing, he had the thought that now he would have to return to his empty dorm room, where no one was waiting for him, and the second part of the bed was cold and not warmed by anyone’s body.
He had a neighbor named Taeyong, but the next week he is going to move to his boyfriend Jaehyun’s, so they would leave him all alone in the room. Sometimes he was so jealous of them. Johnny also wanted to have someone who could lie on top, and he would bury his fingers in the hair of this “someone”, which are still a little damp after a shower, and would exchange soft kisses with him, talking about something of theirs, secret.
And so the group was standing by the car. While the guys getting into the car, Johnny tried to order food delivery, because he is exhausted. He take a seat next to Mark, and they started discussing the filming and remembered how Jaehyun blushed when they forced him to shoot a video with the tackle phrase “Jeogiyo nuna hokshi namjachingu isseoyo”. After hearing it, Yoonoh blushed again and hid behind Taeyong’s back, who responded by gently stroking his head.
While they had such conversations, they quickly got to dorm, and fled to their rooms, because everyone wanted to wash finally off the makeup that irritated the skin. Taeyong took the bathroom, and Johnny cheered himself up and go to Instagram, while waiting for a friend to free room. Since he is a great connoisseur of high-quality photos, he follows many photographers and on average he spent four hours a day on Instagram.
      - This is outstanding ... Taeyong, come here! Look what a gorgeous shot! I’m crazy about this photographer! - Johnny yelled while lifting his phone into the air.
      - You say that about every photographer you follow, - Tae replied trying not to move his facial muscles to keep the mask from slipping. - And if it’s an animal on the photo ... - he did not have time to finish the sentence, because Johnny poked him with his phone almost in the face.
      - Just look! What color correction, what kind of exposure, and how well the background is visible, which does not distract from the foreground. Everything is harmonious as hell! - Suh shakes his phone. - I won’t find content on Instagram better than animals or professional photography, - Johnny switched to the recommendations feed.
      - I wouldn’t be so sure. I also thought so before, but you know, Instagram recommendations can throw something interesting. I’ve found so many edits made by our fans. When I’m not in the mood, they amuse me, - replied Lee, removing the mask and smearing the remnants of it on his neck with thin fingers.
      - Well, yes, artificial intelligence does not stand still, but it will definitely not be cooler than well-taken photographs or animals. - said Johnny, accidentally clicking on the first post in the recommendations.
The video showed a guy was on his knees and pressed his buttocks to the pole. When the calm music began, he threw one hand on the pole, and the other temptingly ran over the body. Then he spread his knees to the sides, grabbed the pole with both hands and turned over in the air, as if this did not require special strength, standing on his right leg, and wrapping his left leg around the pole. All his movements were smooth and calm, like a surface of a sea on an early sunny morning. The video was short, but Johnny seems to have spent a lot more watching, and Taeyong pulled him out of the trance by snapping his fingers to his ear.
      - Hey, I told you here how the guys and I spent the weekend, and you didn’t even hummed. You seem to have seen a new photo there that fascinated you? - said Lee and tried to look at the elder’s phone, but last quickly blocked it.
      - No, I thought about the upcoming photo sessions. Again, so many things will have to be applied, the hair will be torment ... - Johnny tried to redirect topic in another side, because he knew that Lee was a fan of crying about transformations during each comeback and how he fed up with everything.
      - Oh yes, this is awfull. They will paint me in long-ass colour again and dress something on me, like in Fire Truck’s era ... - Taeyong complained.
_-_-_-_ -_-_-_-_ -_-_-_-_ -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ -_- _-_- _-_- _-_- _-_- _-_- _-_- _-_- 
Several weeks after that video, Johnny followed actively that dancer. His name was Ten, and it turned out that he danced not only on the pole but also hip-hop, traditional Chinese dances, and even ballet ... Of course, pole dancing received the most views and admired comments. Suh watched and commented on all Ten’s videos, were on all the lives and tried to memorize every guy’s emotion.
- So, we have everybody here broken down by parts, so while the rap-line is being recorded, the vocals can have some rest. You can go take a coffee, - said the record director and disappeared into the studio with Mark and Taeyong.
Jungwoo promised that he would stay at the studio and write to the American in case of anything, so Johnny went to the cafe downstairs for calm breakfast with meringues and coffee.
He felt like a teenager when he thought about how to get attention from this handsome guy dancer. At first Johnny thought about writing Ten in direct, but he probably already has a lot of fans, so Johnny’s message will just get lost among a bunch of others. Then he thought to invite Ten as a backing dancer to their video, but they already had enough people, and then Suh thought if he received such an offer, he would definitely block this person. Therefore, Johnny was waiting for an opportunity to drive up to the guy as invisibly as possible.
Suddenly, a notification came that Ten had a new post. Opening it, Johnny flew out of this world altogether: in the video, Ten, slightly sag in the back, leaning on the pole only with his shoulder blades, but what Suh paid all his attention to was that the dancer was on high heels. Rather rhythmic music played, but Ten hit the beat with every particle of his body, captivating the American’s mind. He arching as if his bones were made from gelatin. Ten playfully shot his eyes into the lens, and Johnny felt like these eyes were hitting into his heart. Eagerly absorbing every movement, repeating Ten’s emotions on his face. When the dance ended, Ten found himself in the same position as in the beginning.
Johnny really regretted that he didn’t smoke, otherwise he would have smoked a whole pack. So he took a cup of Americano brought by the server and drank it all in a few sips. Johnny just forgot how to breathe. Previously, he did not notice a special love for dancing, especially the pole, he just did not understand the meaning. And now he is ready to find out the address of the studio where Ten dances, and even if this is some god-choked club somewhere on the edge of the city - Johnny is ready to come there and watch the guy dances, and then come to the hostel and will fantasize, remembering his cunning, fox gaze and light movements. Although somewhere deep in his soul he wanted Ten to dance only for him. Johnny was even ready to give him a room in his future apartment where Ten would dance only for him.
From such thoughts the blood rushed to the right place, but Johnny had no time to go to relax - he saw a message from Jungwoo: he wrote that it was time for them to go recording. So he quickly finished eating the meringue and having paid, ran up the stairs.
-_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- -_- - -
The guys were exhausted: they had a promotion for the “Cherry Bomb” tour, and the last city they sang was Seoul. Before the concert there were three days off, the group divided into units: one unit slept all day, got up to eat in the evening, and went to bed again, and the second unit just played games all day, ate a lot and lay in bed, conducting live.
The time was approaching midnight, when Johnny tired of watching YouTube, so he remembered about Ten’s Instagram. When he opened the application, he immediately saw a post about Lulu, a cute short-legged cat, very popular on YouTube, who also had a “brother”. It was a short video of Lulu trying to steal a piece of cake from the hostess. This made Johnny uwu-face and flipped down the page, bumping into Ten’s post. It said that they were recruiting for a pole dancing group.
At first Johnny lit up with joy, as this is a great opportunity to roll up to the guy and pull him into his net. But he is an idol, the day after tomorrow is a concert, he needs to rest ... He weighed the pros and cons for a very long time and finally went to Taeyong, who probably did not sleep because he is working on the lyrics of a new song.
Johnny tapped his knuckles gently on the wooden door. After a couple of seconds, he heard Tae’s stomping outside the door and a tousled head appeared from there with glasses slipping to the tip of his nose.
- Oh Johnny, it’s you. Come in, just try as quietly as possible - Jae-na fall asleep, he was spinning for a long time and could not sleep, - Lee whispered, opening the door wider and letting in the guest.
Suh sat down on Taeyong’s bed and wondered how to tell properly his friend about the situation, and decided that it would be better to dump everything on a clean one.
- Taeyong, I just decided ... I want to go pole dancing. What do you think about it? Johnny asked, looking up hesitantly at Lee, who was intently crossing out individual lines of the song in his notebook. He was not even surprised at this question and just asked.
-And who is this lucky guy that you want to attract? - with a slight grin on his face.
Johnny at first did not understand what the guy was driving at, and told that he had read somewhere there that it is useful for physical fitness, like you won’t be a jerk, but your hands will be strong. And then he realized, so he ran his eyes around the room, trying not to show it.
- In what sense of “lucky-guy”? I just decided for myself. I saw one guy dancing ... - Suh started talking, but was interrupted by Lee, who finished the sentence in his place.
- And you conquered him with your skills, am I right? Taeyong finally raised his head and turned sideways to his friend.
Johnny’s face was full of emotion, but the first thing Taeyong saw was embarrassment. He hit the mark.
- But how did you guess? - the American rubbed the tips of his ears.
- Well, first - you were never very interested in dancing at rehearsals, I never saw yours much zeal to dancing. Second, - Tae bent his second finger, turning his back to Johnny and recording something, - everyone has noticed for a long time that you spend a lot of time on the phone watching videos of some dancer on repeat. And our Doyoung, like a bloodhound dog, found him in your subscriptions and we also watched all of his videos. You have a good taste for guys, Johnny-hyung, - said Taeyong mockingly, making the elder blush even more and stare at the floor, - Well, third, even though you wear oversized clothes, yours “daddy” is all it is equally visible and he gives you up with giblets.
Johnny reflexively grabbed onto the aforementioned spot, covering it up, making Taeyong burst out laughing.
- But how did you all know? Johnny asked to deflect the subject from such an awkward moment.
- Well at least that you look hilarious when you watch him dancing and try to copy his facial expressions. And also, when you were dancing in the training hall with headphones on, I could admire how you tried to sit on the splits and your pants were torn right in the middle. - Lee could no longer restrain himself and burst into soundless laughter.
Johnny would fall through the floor if he found out that this shame was seen by someone else, but he can trust Lee, so they laughed, but not loudly, as Yoonoh tossed and turn in his sleep and Taeyong left to calm him down and sang him a song.
Johnny continued to sit on the edge of the bed, face propped in his hands, and watched about the couple. They were insanely cute: Jaehyun would often massage Taeyong’s back and legs on set because the latter was training too hard and was exhausted, and Yoonoh also brought food for Lee because Taeyong usually forgot to eat during day and then ate so much before going to bed and half of the night turning from side to side. Taeyong always asked everyone to be quiet in the car when Jaehyun fell asleep on his shoulder or lap; they were at the gunpoint of the cameras and behaved cautiously, no one could say that they were meeting, but the tenderness that they gave to each other was in the air and encouraged others to meet the soul mate, for whom they would want to move mountains. If they fought, then at most they could not talk for half an hour, one of them always came to another and childishly held out his little finger with the words “Make friends, make friends, Never, never break friends, if you do - You’ll catch the flu, And that will be the end of you”, and in the morning Mark and Donghyuck, who live next door, complained of banging on the wall and low sighs.
Johnny took a deep breath because he wasn’t sure guys like Ten needed a relationship. He seems to be married to the gym and pole. Meanwhile, Lee calmed Jung down and returned to the chair. Johnny looked up and asked hesitantly.
      - Well, since you already know everything about this, then ... Should I try?
Taeyong was silent for a minute, and then he spoke.
      - I think yes. It will be very difficult for you, but I am confident in you like in no one else.
      - To be honest, I’m terrified. I’ll be like a cow on ice ...
      - Love overpowers fear, - Taeyong whispered mysteriously and returned to his notes.
But really, what would he lose if he just tried? Yes, he will look ridiculous trying to climb the pole, but isn’t it worth it to make Ten laugh and cheer him up? When Doyoung was sad before the vlive, Johnny made him laugh in more ridiculous ways, and nothing, no one stopped loving him less because of this. Johnny decided that he should justify the feelings that arose in him six months ago, and he would rather get a refusal now than continue to sigh mindlessly for this guy.
      - You’re right, - Johnny whispered sharply and frightened Taeyong, who had already forgotten that Suh is still here, - I’ll take this first step towards winning the dancer’s heart, and either I’ll be refused, or I can bathe in his love.
\(T∇T)/ \(T∇T)/ \(T∇T)/
After speaking a little more with Tae and finally dispelling his indecision, Johnny returned to his room. Now he had to write to Ten about his desire to dance, but it was not as easy as he imagined. He could only hope that his message would not get lost among others. He opened a direct with Ten.
Hello! Saw yours last post about recruiting a pole dance group. Are there still free positions?
He wrote this with shaking hands, but was very glad that he dared to take such a step. Deciding to distract himself from waiting of the dancers answer, Suh turned on video. It was fourteen minutes to three o’clock in the morning when Johnny received an Instagram alert on his phone.
Hi Hi. Just in time for the last. When will it be convenient for you to come?
The American was as delighted with the message as the schoolgirl to whom her love was answered. He wanted to squeak, but remembered in time that it was now like night. So Johnny buried himself in the pillow and muttered something joyful in his own way and then exhaled deeply. For a long time he could not leave the message read.
I don’t know yet, because I have a work, but I would like to get to your group.
Johnny wrote to Ten, hit the send button and immediately fall asleep.
In the morning his message was read, but with no response. Johnny imagined thousand and one reasons of his stupidness and was already ready to cry in Taeyong’s shoulder but he was stopped by Mark, who pleased the older one to reconcile him with Donghyuck, because he accidentally deleted a game from theirs computer because of lack of memory, and now the youngest was mortally offended by him. During lunch and Johnny did not touch the phone again. And only when they went to their rooms, Johnny finally remembered the correspondence.
He had never run to the phone so quickly. Grabbing it, Johnny sighed with relief: Ten answered. He did not dare to open the message for a long time, fearing rejection, but then he remembered Taeyong’s words and said “Well, no matter what, i open” and read the message.
If you want, you can come to the introductory lesson tomorrow at twenty minutes to three in the afternoon.
Johnny could not believe his happiness: tomorrow he will see this charm boy live and that is why he became strange, because after that he happily jogged in the room and shouted - Who is sexy Frau? I am sexy Frau!!, without even thinking - Frau is a woman, but he can say so, he has such an event. He picked up the phone and wrote a message:
Oh, sure. What should I take with me?
The answer came quickly, as if Ten were expecting his message:
Yourself.
Johnny wondered if either Ten was as weird as he was, or that the message was not meant for him. But he decided not to upset himself and just hugged the phone, imagining tomorrow.
\(T∇T)/ \(T∇T)/ \(T∇T)/
Arriving at the address showed by Ten, Johnny doubted for a very long time: was this message really was intended for him? Maybe Ten is expecting to see someone another. In moments like this, Suh forgets that he is an idol. He sat down on the sofa in the hall and waited.
Johnny was drawn from his thoughts by a human shadow blocking the light in front of him. He looked up and gasped - it was Ten who smiled to him. Johnny sat with his mouth open, and Ten realized how much he impressed Suh - he silently pulled Johnny with him. As the man stood up and followed the dancer, he noticed his height advantage and noted the strength with which Ten was pulling him forward.
They didn’t walk long, but during that time Johnny had time to study him: he had beautifully tousled silver hair, he was wearing a big loose T-shirt and sweatpants, and he smelled a mix of a little sweat and fresh mint. Johnny was so shocked to be so close to Ten that he didn’t even notice bringing him to the training room: it looked much smaller than theirs room, but it was just as cozy here, and Johnny thought the soundproofing was better here than in theirs company’s gym.
- So what dance would you like to dance? - asked Ten with honey voice, closing the door behind him. Johnny became very uncomfortable, because they were together there, and then his “daddy” made itself felt, showing through the fabric of tight jeans. I thought about wearing something loose,- he thoughts, and then looked up and caught the curious gaze of a dancer who was grinning and looking as sly as in his video.
- I would like to.. With you in ... I mean, dance on the pylon, you do it so wonderful and easily, it’s incredible ... - Johnny explained, looking at the floor like a child guilty of something. Ten only nodded in response to his praise.
- Well, since you are so amazed, would you like to see one of my best dances? - asked Ten after a pause and, without waiting for an answer, turned to the speakers behind him to find the music. - You can sit there - Ten pointed on the rugs.
Johnny decided that sitting down would be the best decision he made today. He sat down on the mat and, as it seemed to him, imperceptibly corrected his disgrace in his pants, but Ten saw everything watching the American in the mirror. Dancer just grinned at this maneuver.
Ten finally found the song, turned it on and ran briskly to the pole. He shook his head, stretched, and the song “Baby Don’t Like It “played. Johnny didn’t even immediately realize that it was a song from his group, he just thought he had already heard it somewhere.
Ten’s shoulders were wider than the guys his height, but he was very slim and flexible. Every movement of his hips made Johnny squeal inside, his arms were thin and even seemed a little feminine, but when he grabbed the pole, Suh opened his mouth in surprise and wondering where so much power in such a body. The song was alluring, and the atmosphere which Ten created with his dance was such that you can cut the air with a knife. At first, Johnny was controlling himself, but then he gazed at the guy. He even rarely blinked so as not to miss a single movement. There was nothing vulgar in dancer’s movements, but the way he presented the dance left nothing in his thoughts, except sexual fantasies. The guy glides along the pylon like a snake, and that sly look pins to Suh. Ten definitely understood his sexuality and knew what to press on. From time to time Johnny pinched his own hand to calm down a little.
Alas, Ten’s dance came to the end, and Johnny again did not even notice. His throat was dry, he wanted to drink even more than then in the cafe. With this dance, Ten finally won Suh’s heart.
- What do you think about it? - asked Ten. He slid down the pylon and sat on the floor opposite Johnny.
- You’re just like God, - croaked American. The dancer only smiled at this.
- You can just call me Ten.
Johnny didn’t know what to say to that and just hummed. He thought it would be much easier in live communication. Ten seemed not even tense. But he apparently felt that the tension was still there and emanated from Johnny.
- Well, will you sit and be silent, or will you offer to go on a date? - Ten interrupted the silence, getting closer to Johnny. Suh did not expect such a turn.
- Sorry, what?
- Come on, they’ve already told me everything about your love for me. I am the best friend of one of your group mate, and he told me about your feelings, - the dancer laughed, standing up from the floor and sitting down next to Suh, who was crazy about the situation. - At first I didn’t believe it either, because I have been a fan of yours group for a long time, and my bias is a fan of my dances, - Ten continued to twitter while Johnny was digesting the information. He could just use one of his morons - classmates, but he sat for six months like an idiot and suffered?
Did it suddenly happen that the person he loved was also a fan? Well, it flabbergasted me. Johnny just couldn’t help but smile with happiness.
Interrupting Ten’s speech, Suh pulled him into a gentle kiss, gently hugging the guy by the shoulders, because he was afraid of breaking Ten’s back with his strength. As expected, this guy is wonderful in everything, even in the kiss he brought his individuality. When they pulled away from each other, Ten chuckled.
- Well, actually, at first I would prefer to go on a date, but I also like your version. But wait a minute.
Ten got to his feet and turned the key in the lock, and then came back, knelt down directly to Suh and crawled on top of him like a cat.
- So where did we stop?
\ (T∇T) / \ (T∇T) / \ (T∇T) /
After a hot relaxation in the training room, Ten and Johnny took a shower separately, and Suh, like a gentleman, invited the guy to dinner. They went to the ramen cafe, where they ordered a few servings of noodles because they lost a lot of calories. It turned out they were like two pears in a pod: Ten argued with Johnny, who would eat two portions of ramen faster. Suh would win, but so as not to upset Ten, he patiently waited for him to eat his portions first, and then, like a child, rejoiced for him, clutching his cheeks.
Until recently, Johnny did not even know how to talk to a guy, but now they tried the forbidden fruit, albeit in the hall, but they will definitely repeat this in all places, because the elder now knows how much Ten fell in love with him during this time. Johnny could not want more, but fate rewarded him for restraint with a gift in the form of this adorable kitten.

Jangmi’s relationship with 96 ′Line (SVT)
Jangmi’s not sure if they baby her or she babies them
Jangmi’s Masterlist
Tumblr media
^^ She doesn’t get why they’re tryna look badass when they are literally cats
Relationship with the Members
Jun
Tumblr media
Jangmi may have the spice tolerance of ‘mild’ at Nandos, but she doesn’t mind accompanying Jun when he specifically goes to restaurants that serve spicy food
She just orders a drink or something very very mild and just chats with him
She especially loves it when Jun treats her to dessert after 
Especially when its Bingsu or a McFlurry
Prank Buddies
They love being little shits to the rest of the members, whether it be taking videos of them sleeping or putting toothpaste in Oreo’s.
The only downside is that Jangmi can’t lie at all, and most of the time she isn’t around when the prank is in action, since she gives the whole thing away
Really wants to go to Jun’s hometown and has tried numerous times to convince the Going Seventeen PD to explore his 1+1 concept
She was highkey salty when they won 2 grand awards there last year, but Pledis stuffed up their scheduling
He loves taking her phone and spamming it with selfies ^like the one above^
She doesn’t get how he looks drop dead gorgeous in every pic tho (underrated visual)
Hoshi
Tumblr media
Makes fun of her for not knowing how to eat with chopsticks properly
1000% not behind his Tiger agenda (like all the members
See’s no relevance or need for him to refer himself as an animal
Will never miss the opportunity to roast him
Looks up to Soonyoung so much in terms of dance as well as his outlook on life
He barely gets angry at her whenever she’s lacking, and calmly goes over the moves again
When preparing for debut, since she had less time to learn the choreography, they usually spent most nights making sure she was comfortable with the moves.
Since they spent so much together during that time, she felt closest towards him in earlier eras when she was finding her place in the group
She’s amazed how he speaks his mind, and has no filter
Both of them have a competition to see who can be more active on weverse
Jangmi’s has posted every single day since they joined the platform
The punishment everytime someone goes 3 days without posting is buying the other any food of their choice
They often hang out together when exploring cities on tour
Jangmi loves being in his company since he can hold the conversation by himself when she’s taking in the sights
Hoshi loves it because she speaks English, meaning he doesn’t have to attempt speaking in English
Wonwoo
Tumblr media
Poor eyesight buddies
Hate wearing contacts
First thing they do after a performance is put their glasses on
Love Cats
Whenever they hang out they go to cat cafes
Probably the member she was most weary at first, because she hadn’t really interacted with him before.
Lowkey thought he hated her joining the group since he  barely spoke to her, but she later learned on that’s just his personality.
She sometimes fell asleep in his bed in their old dorms, whenever she couldn’t be bothered going to her own room after rehearsals
Wonwoo would just sleep with her, and hug her extra tightly so she wouldn’t accidentally fall off
Even though now he’s in an actual room, she sometimes still sleeps on his bed
She doesn’t even make the excuse of being tired to walk to her room anymore
She’d also sleep with him when she couldn’t sleep at night, and walked over to the kitchen to get some water
And then just push him over and sleep on his mattress
She loves his curly hair, and is constantly asking their stylists to perm it again
She’s one of the members who encourage him to talk in interviews more, and is often directing the questions to him
Woozi
Tumblr media
Constantly roasting each other
Think of the Seunkwan x Dino dynamic
Bicker about everything humanly possible
One of the room mate combo’s that aren’t allowed anymore since they’ve received too many complaints
The only member Jihoon is soft with.
He tries to keep up his serious persona whenever they film, but it breaks instantly when she does something adorable.
She loves keeping him company whenever he’s producing in his studio
She doesn’t even knock, but just struts inside and sleeps on the couch
Jihoon often pulls an all-nighter those times, not wanting to wake her up.
He always has a spare doona lying around, just so she doesn’t get cold
She spends most public holidays with his family
Even if she tells them that holidays are for family
Then they play the ‘you are family card.’
Once she refused to spend a holiday with them, since she felt like Jihoon needed time away from the members, but they ended up kidnapping her.
They treat her like their daughter
Always criticizes her during recordings as he knows she has so much potential, and her fear is holding her back
This causes them to ALWAYS fight during their recordings, and then be bitter for a few days [Seventeen Right Here]
She cried when recording ‘Getting Closer’
He showed no remorse
Scoups had to come in and tell her to have a break
But they obviously come around and make up.
And her raps on the tracks are always fire.
Obviously since he’s a producing genius
Was very vocal about not wanting Jangmi not growing taller than him
Was terrified when she had her growth spurt when they debuted
Luckily she stopped growing after that year
Introducing Jangmi:
Get to know Jangmi
Jangmi with: 95′ Line,  97′ Line & Maknae Line

The Ilocos Sur Naturals Beauty
hello everyone its me Aprilyn Uclusin,  Allow me to show you some of the province of Ilocos Sur's natural beauty and wonders. 
Tumblr media
Ilocos Sur was founded by the Spanish conquistador, Juan de Salcedo in 1572. It was formed when the north (now Ilocos Norte) split from the south (Ilocos Sur). At that time it included parts of Abra and the upper half of present-day La Unión.
The province is famed for its diverse culture and history, as well as its heritage sites, adventure parks, and, of course, its cuisine. This time, though, we'll be focusing on the wonderful sites to visit in Ilocos Sur.
1.  Vigan Cathedral
