Note: For this list, I decided not to add a symbol for shows that center queerness, because in a way all of these shows do that and at the same time almost none actually do. Queer characters and their love stories are featured in every show in this list, but most of them do not address any other queer aspects of their lives and only some address the fact that they are queer at all. This is not a critique of South Korean shows, but just an observation of their current media landscape and added as context, in case you are interested in watching.

YOU TASTE THE SILVER - IvanTill WIP (Part 5&6)

And we have two more POVs on this one! I was posting just one at a time to give myself a buffer to posting on AO3, but I wrote more than I expected haha.

That's right! The first chapter is now up on ao3 on this link. Please come by and leave some kudos!!

part one - part two - part three - part four

Things move on smoothly for Till. He's used to his new apartment, his set-up is pinterest-worthy if Hyuna has anything to say about it, and he's even opened his PO box again, warning his fans to only send letters and small packages, since he really enjoyed reading what everyone had to say.

(He's actually working on a collage of sorts, decking out one wall of his office with the letters. He always feels warm, looking at them. Kirby sent a really cute letter full of mongmong stickers, Bonbon's kid drew a really cute crayon rendition of his dad peering at his phone while vacuuming, and Jaewoon sent about 5 different drawings he treasures greatly.)

Leaving his PO box open, however, also means Navi has been sending a never-ending stream of little gifts. Almost none of them come with letters, or if they do, they're brief and printed from a computer. Apparently, since Till only comments on the contents of the gifts if he happens to wear them on-stream and said viewer comments on it, Navi decided that's the perfect excuse to spoil Till without making him lose his composure on-stream.

So far, Till has gotten; a new sweater, a varied collection of rings, a bundle of cellphone charms after he commented the string he looped through the case to hold his phone in case it falls frayed away.

Apparently, Navi also managed to walk around the "small package" limitation by sending gift cards for several stores. Till had no idea furniture stores even did gift cards.

He felt… sort of warm. If it was just an old man looking to spend his money or lure Till in, they'd probably insist on more diamonds or expensive stuff, right? Or insist Till comment on the gifts live, if it was some sort of sasaeng looking for attention.

Navi never did any of those things. After the diamonds, the gifts were never something Till would consider super expansive, unless you counted the frequency of them. The rings were silver, but none had jewels, the phone charms looked like something Till himself could get online, except the tags on them showed they were bought in Taiwan. The gift cards were weirder, but nothing more expensive than what Navi would donate over the course of one or two streams.

That is, until this latest gift.

Till stares at it, feeling the bottom of his stomach give out. He's in his kitchen, back from a supermarket run after he picked his latest batch of letters. He was going to read them while he ate lunch, but he feels 0 interest in his food right now.

He's holding two tickets for Mizi's concert, in the VIP section. One of those that comes attached to a meet-and-greet.

Clipped to them in an inconspicuous pink paperclip is a note.

I don't know if you got tickets for yourself, but I won these and will be out of the country at the time. I hope you can enjoy them with someone else. If the staff needs any information about the VIP status, here's my number. (xx) xxx-xxx. - Navi.

It is a handwritten note, written with a black pen in a hurry, so much so Till has to squint to make some of it out. The handwriting looks like someone who's not used to writing, with lots of places where the pen left marks as it hovered over the page without gliding, except the signature, which looks practed and neat.

Till has no idea what to do about this.

He calls Hyuna.

"Hi, I'm live." She answers, and he swears. He forgot to account for her streaming hours. He must sound agitated enough it worries her, because there's the sound of a few buttons being pressed, probably muting herself. "Till?"

He takes a deep breath.

"Sorry, I can call later." He says, putting the tickets down carefully and taking his lunch to the sink. He won't finish it.

"It's fine, what happened?"

"Navi sent in another gift." He can practically feel her rolling her eyes equal parts exasperated and relieved.

"Till, if you called me to fawn over your potential sugar daddy–"

"It's two tickets to Mizi's concert, VIP, with a meet-and-greet. And a number to contact if there's problems getting in." He says quickly, interrupting her. He runs one hand through his hair, starting to get stressed. Is this a trick? Is Navi going to be waiting on the seat besides these, corner Till in the show? No, they wouldn't send two tickets if this was the case.

"Holy shit." Hyuna says, entirely surprised. He makes a little agreeable noise. "Holy shit, Till, these aren't just expensive, they're like, hard to get. Did you message them yet?"

Till shakes his head, then realizes she can't see it. "No, I didn't call or message. Should I?" On the other side of the line Hyuna makes a tsk sound.

"No, don't call or message it. Let me finish the stream normally, and then we can look into it, okay? You said two tickets right? If you decide to go, take me or Isaac, and it should be alright." Till hums his agreement, and lets Hyuna go to finish her stream. It's a good plan, Hyuna can and has punched guys who harassed her, and Isaac is built like a brick house, no way a weirdo is getting close to him with Isaac there.

Dewey is probably a bad idea, he's more likely to punch first and ask questions never.

Till sighs, puts the tickets back on the envelope and goes take a bath, hoping it'll help him relax and maybe bring back his appetite.

Ivan is taking a water break from rehearsals when his phone chimes with a notification from an unknown number.

He immediately feels dread, did his number get leaked? He sits up, putting his water bottle down and opening the message.

Unknown [ 3:24PM ] Is this Navi?

Ivan blinks at the message, not understanding it for a long second. And then he is hit with the memories of staying up at night some days ago, reviewing the footage from the day's shoot and going over the script time and time again, because his performance was horrible and the whole scene had to be scrapped and he was so frustrated, and…

And Sua sent a message asking if he'd meet her for Mandated Lunch Time before Mizi's concert next month, and he remembered he couldn't make it since he'd be shooting that day, and he thought.

Till likes Mizi. Ivan has Mizi tickets.

He doesn't even remember what he wrote on the damn letter, oh god, did he sign with his name? Plaster his address on it??

This is fine. Ivan is fine. He asks one of the fight coordinators for five minutes and heads into the bathroom.

You [ 3:25PM ] Yes, who is it?

Better to see what they know before saying anything incriminating.

Unknow [ 3:25PM ] This is Till. Did you really send me Mizi tickets? How did you even get them?

Okay. Deep breaths, Ivan. You can do it. Say this is Navi, you really sent the tickets and that it's no big deal, and you got them… How did you get them? You can't say your real name, and saying you bought them for Till would sound weird, these really are expansive.

Ivan takes a deep breath, and sits on the toilet's lid, crossing his legs to rest his elbows on his knees.

You [ 3:26PM ] Hyung, you always said you liked them, and I happened across these as a job perk. I'll be out of the country, so it was no problem to give them to you.

Unknow [ 3:26PM ] A job perk? Even if that's true, they can't have been cheap. I've already told you, there's no need to keep wasting money on me.

You [ 3:27PM ] It's not wasting money, hyung. I really enjoy your lives, and it makes me happy knowing you're enjoying yourself. I work in the industry, so I know some people who are much less talented than you with a lot more opportunities. I just wanted to give you something to enjoy.

Ivan's fingers are flying over the keyboard before he's even conscious of it, indignation flaring up in his chest. Till works so much, he produces and sings and plays the guitar and drums, he writes his own lyrics, he's so incredibly talented and it makes Ivan furious to know he doesn't see it.

Ivan's been in the spotlight since he was a child acting on toy commercials, met even more people when he and Sua acted together as the twins of a famous singer on a period drama, and there's so many of these so-called "idols" that have a pretty voice and body and nothing else to give. So many actors bank on their looks and have 0 dedication to the craft. It makes Ivan livid.

You [ 3:27PM ] Hyung is so hard-working, and I really wish you'd see it. Your music deserves to be sold on albums and people should praise you so much more for how good your lyrics are. The people I work with don't put half the effort Hyung does, and they get to go to shows and afterparties all the time. I just want to let Hyung see his Idol and have a good time, since I won't use the tickets anyway. Is that bad?

Ivan is… breathing hard. He's somehow lost his cool. He watches as the three dots appear and disappear, and decides to get up. He exits the stall, splashes some water on his face, combs his hair back. Does a breathing exercise his mother taught him and Sua when his father and Sua's mom were fighting, and looks back at his phone.

Unknow [ 3:28PM ] Thank you. I'll enjoy the show.

Unknow [ 3:29PM ] Can I still message this number after it?

Ivan lets out an entirely undignified squeal, and almost does a little victory dance, all previous frustration wipes clean. Till wants to keep talking! Till isn't rejecting him!! Ivan has Till's phone number!!

You [ 3:29PM ] Yes! Hyung can message me whenever <3 I'll do my best to answer!

Unknow [ 3:30PM ] Great. I'll let you know how the show goes, then.

Ivan may be getting ready for a heart attack at the tender age of 22, but he's never regretted anything, in his life, ever.

⠀˳ 𓏲 ` ִ ︎︎ 💐 BIOGRAFIA︎︎ ⋆ ࣪. ࿔

GATILHO(S): Machismo, agressão física e preconceito.

Na noite de 26 de agosto de 1992 em Londres, um choro tomava a sala de parto; nascia Julie Lim, filha de um grande empresário do mercado imobiliário e uma organizadora de festas. Ao contrário de muitos da alta-sociedade, a família Lim adquiriu seu poder aquisitivo com trabalho árduo, mas Lim Jaewoon - o patriarca - apesar de ter nascido em condições deploráveis era um alfa preconceituoso, machista e abusivo.

Esse pensamento duvidoso direcionou a criação da garota em ensinamentos à perfeição, aprendendo novos idiomas, instrumentos musicais, caligrafia, literatura, tarefas domésticas e como se portar adequadamente para que futuramente fosse uma esposa dedicada. Mas para a surpresa de seu pai, durante a adolescência, seus olhos tomaram a coloração característica de um alfa enquanto seus irmãos foram considerados ômegas. Julie imaginou que aquele momento iria desconstruir a concepção errônea de seu pai, porém, ela deu azar em não ter cheiros característicos de alfa e passou a ser forçada a viver como uma ômega. Sua rotina por muitos anos era agradar os clientes ou funcionários da empresa de seu pai, ela se portava naturalmente como uma ômega visto que recebeu treinamento por anos para tal.

Quando finalmente se tornou adulta, ela pode frequentar a faculdade de sua escolha e aos poucos, desmantelava o poder que seu pai tinha sobre si; seu objetivo era criar um legado para si e envergonhá-lo perante a sociedade. Contudo, seus planos foram alterados quando seu pai pegou seu irmão mais novo se envolvendo com outro ômega e suas últimas memórias se remetem ao cheiro de sangue, gritos e gemidos de dor por ter o braço quebrado quando tentou separar uma das brigas. Ela lembra de ter recuperado os sentidos três dias depois ao escutar o som do mar e ser recepcionada pelo vice-presidente da empresa familiar: Seu pai havia a expulsado de casa por querer agir contra seus moldes, por colocar ideias nefastas na cabeça dos irmãos e portanto, ela moraria em um bairro chamado Donggul Tokki a partir daquele momento.

Julie ficou assustada porque não praticava muito seu coreano em casa e estava preocupada com seus irmãos, mas o vice-presidente não dava detalhes sobre o que havia acontecido com eles. Ela foi deixada no local com pouco dinheiro, o braço enfaixado e um desejo de vingança; chegou a dormir na rua nas primeiras noites e desabou a chorar em desespero por medo. Após uma semana, um senhor perguntou em inglês se ela estava bem, foi então que ela explicou em desespero sobre o ocorrido. O senhor, chocado com a situação, levou Julie para sua casa, onde ela foi bem-recebida pela esposa dele.

Os Jungs eram conhecidos no bairro por serem os donos bondosos da Gippeum Inbloom e adotaram a garota de vinte quatro anos como sua, visto que eram inférteis e nunca conseguiram ter filhos por conta. Foi assim que Julie Lim se tornou Jung Naeun, sua vida era completamente diferente da anterior, era influenciada a deixar seu lado alfa aflorar sem receios, recebia amor e era tratada como uma pessoa ao invés de um problema a ser resolvido. Aos poucos, começou a ajudar na loja e a trazer ideias para expandir os negócios. Atualmente, seus pais se aposentaram e estão redescobrindo o mundo em viagens, enquanto, Naeun se tornou a proprietária da floricultura a qual promete cuidar com todo seu coração assim como foi cuidada por eles. Ela morava até pouco tempo na casa dos pais, mas ao descobrir sobre a iniciativa Blossom Grove por fofoca, tomou a decisão de se aventurar em um ambiente novo e que abraça a pluralidade.

⠀˳ 𓏲 ` ִ ︎︎ 💐 HEADCANONS︎︎ ⋆ ࣪. ࿔

O aroma característico da Naeun consiste em rosas, romã e verbena, esse cheiro mais delicado normalmente é atribuído para ômegas, porém sua família biológica possui um gene que desencadeia uma mutação no aroma de mulheres independente do sub-gênero.

A maioria das pessoas não sabem que ela é filha adotiva dos Jungs e ela prefere que o segredo sobre seu passado fique escondido porque ainda tem muitas mágoas e sentimentos mal resolvidos. Além de morrer de saudade dos irmãos e sonhar com o dia que poderá vê-los novamente.

Assim que foi acolhida pelos Jung, Naeun passou por uma fase rebelde onde não se sentia emocionalmente estável e encontrava dificuldades entre deixar seu lado Alfa fluir ao invés de seguir nos moldes ômegas que era obrigada. Ela fez várias tatuagens no impulso e agora, está tentando removê-las aos poucos.

Sua personalidade muda completamente durante o estro. Nesse período, é comum que Naeun deixe a responsabilidade da loja com um funcionário mais antigo e busque conforto em seu quarto ou fique um tempo no Heatwaves.

Seus hobbies incluem pintar quadros, arco e flecha, scrapbooking, escrever cartas e fazer compras. Gosta de R&B, comida apimentada e bebidas fortes como whisky e tequila.

Sabe absolutamente tudo sobre flores (significados, cheiros) e adora poder contribuir para presentes especiais e ajudar em arranjos para casamento. Sempre coloca seu coração em tudo que faz e espera que os funcionários da floricultura façam o mesmo.

He knew it was best to not smell like fear or at least make it known. If he could he would have make a run for it, but he knew far too well that Jaewoo was always three steps ahead of him. “I’m not dumb Jaewoo. I know why you’re here.” Working at a nightclub being surrounded with all kinds of people taught him enough of what obsession looked like. He wasn’t oblivious when looking into those cold eyes. “Ugh!” he winced as he dropped the fork to the floor pressing his back against the wall as he was shoved back. “F-fuck.” he uttered barely breathing as he felt those cold fingers around his throat. He couldn’t comprehend why and how he had caught Jaewoon’s attention.

His hand gripping onto the hand that was wrapped around his throat “I been paying you when I can. What else do you want from me---ugh!.” he cussed once more as his legs were spread apart biting onto his bottom lip. He was quiet for a moment when listening to the other threats barely trying to catch his breath as he looked at Jaewoo straight in the eyes. “You wouldn’t. You’re obsessed with me aren’t you?! I know that look. I hear you like to obsessed over toys break them in until they listen. Why the fuck are you obsessing over me.” 

nabidazed​:

“What is your problem..We agreed that I have a few months to pay you back Jaewoo.” he glared but yet he took a step back. He was all talk, but for some reason he couldn’t raise a finger with Jaewoo. Was he already tangled up into his mess without realizing it? Just when he thought he could easily clean up the mess that his so called friend got him into. Who knew it would be that easy to steal someone’s identify. 

A sense of fear grew within him, but yet he repeated these few words in his head. Punch left, kick right. He knew that look in Jawoo eyes. That was obsession. He took a deep breath looking up, “They say dogs like to bark back. Put up a fight.” he said as he grabbed the fork. It wasn’t a kitchen knife but it was something. “What do you have to say to that?” He wondered how a man like Jaewoo exist. How in the world could anyone work for this man? Flinching at the other’s touch, “Don’t fucken touch me..We agreed you would call me, text me a time and a place. Not just raid the whole place to your liking.” he cussed under his breath. 

He purposely kept himself in busy places. Jeff did his research on Jaewoo just to know what he got himself into. “I have a..fork I-I’m not afraid to use it.” he stammered.

Jaewoo lets a lift of amusement curl at the corner of his lips as he watches Jeff’s reaction. He had a little fight in him, that was okay. It was more fun to break, that way. Though of course, there is only so much disrespect one such as him can allow, so with his mood switching on the thickness of a coin, as it does, his anger quickly flares. Slapping the young man’s hand away from him, leaving the fork to clutter from his hold, the other quickly winds around his throat as he gives his newest toy a quick shove back. His fingers squeezing around his throat as he once more presses in close. 

“Like every little bitch I see I will need to break you in” he snarls, their faces now close, before he kicks the other’s legs further apart and presses a knee closer in between his legs, threateningly. “I do not work to your rules, do you understand?” He snaps, his appeasement with having seen the other now faded as he faces his attitude. “You’ve more fingers than you need to secure me my money, do not think I won’t be taking some from you if you displease me” his voice soft, but low, with it’s usual dangerous tone.

Summary:

[...]Across from his shop, across the small lane, is a cosmetics shop—Innisfree. He’s never been quite sure why they moved in across the street when there are many more places that would suit better, but he’s decided that perhaps it’s fate. Seokwoo stares at him from the window of the shop. Of course, it’s not actually Seokwoo. Rather it’s a photograph of him from one of his numerous Innisfree shoots and it’s been stuck to the window. He’s grinning, gesturing to one of their products, and there’s seemingly a glint in his eyes.

  Today is the anniversary of when they began to date many moons ago, but also the anniversary of their break-up.

Jaehwan: Wait, what was that last one?

Sungwoon: ...Cracking an egg.
