UNDER THE SUN - @wooahaes (series // fantasy/darl+ing au // multi ot13 part)

i think i’ve rbed almost all the individual parts if ur interested in my more specific thoughts but this series has been an absolute comfort series for me for a while !! the relationships between the members and the reader - both platonic and romantic have been so lovely to read !! it’s such a genuinely warm series and the worldbuilding is also just soso fantastic !! it is a fantasy sort of au,, so it’s a bit daunting to get into just because the logic of the universes created in this genre is a bit difficult to grasp,, but uts has such an easy to comprehend world and everything is explained so clearly !! it’s genuinely one of the most comforting fics i’ve read this year and one that i’d highly recommend to pretty much everyone,, even if u aren’t a carat :D

APARTMENT A5C - @suhnshinehaos (smau - college au)

my favorite svt smau that combines some of my fav tropes/aus (housemates and uni) !! ++ i’d argue there’s a found family aspect that just melts my heart soso much,, like the reader’s relationship with the 96 line, both platonic and romantic are insanely heartwarming and comforting !! the banter is so entertaining && all of the additional friendships are just to die for !! esp sana and yuta with the reader !! but honestly this smau is just soso sweet and a story where u really root for the main couple to get together bc they just fit each other so well !! def another fic i’d recommend to anyone !!

Listen, I love Daniel Radcliffe SO MUCH and i think he’s so talented and was absolutely incredible as Charley. That being said, Josh Boone was ROBBED of that Tony. His acting during pony’s monologue after little brother?? That tiny one minute in which he doesn’t even have any lines should have been enough to give him that tony. The heartbreak and pain and fear in his eyes? Just- I can’t even begin to describe it. All I know is that he. Should. Have. Won.

SPILL THE FEELS : coupsvi rant

The new album is great, let's not deny it. Let's (once again) just talk about and appreciate how talented Woozi is? Every single song on there is fantastic. I know the majority of Caratland was scared for LOVE, MONEY, FAME, but it tbh didn't disappoint. The lyrics are different from what most thought they were, and DJK only appears a few times. So please, just remain positive :)

SVT knows what carats want, and they want to deliver (it is their job after all). Let's stream this comeback as much as we can, and let's help to get our boys the daesangs they deserve.

!!!!!!! If you don't want to stream LMF, there are alternatives that still give them streams: the remixes. On some remixes (such as the Timbaland Remix or the Hitchiker Remix), DJK's tag isn't present, so therefore he should recieve nothing from it. That gives you an effective way to listen to the song and give the sebongs streams while at the same time not benefiting DJK. !!!!!!!!

It's a long time before we'll have an OT13 comeback again, so let's make this one count. Stream 'SPILL THE FEELS' because it's incredible, and the boys deserve it. Let's get them song of the year with LMF and MAESTRO, let's get them Album of the Year (again), let's get them Artist of the Year, and let's show the world what SEVENTEEN has to offer. And remember, don't let the negativity of fake carats get to you because you're better than that, and if they're hating on SVT for no reason they clearly do not have taste ^-^

Admittedly, I'm using my babies to segue into a related topic, but ah, HSMTMTS did not have a love triangle. In fact, unless you're willing to canonize headcannons like EJ being gay and down bad for Ricky like I am, it never did in all four seasons. A love triangle implies three sides. Even at its maximum number of points in the shape, HSMTMTS had a love...constellation? I think? Ricky and EJ both had arrows pointing to Nini, who had an arrow pointing to Ricky, and Ricky had an additional arrow of Gina pointing to him. At most, if you wanted to argue EJ also pointing an arrow to Gina, then it would become a love diamond. However...

Once Nini left, it was a love...corner. At least according to what the show told us, Ricky and EJ were both pointed at Gina, and Gina's arrow just pivoted from one to the other by the end of the season. A true love TRIANGLE would be if at least one of the boys was in love with the other, and Gina happened to be in love with that point of the trio.

Is this semantic complaining? Maybe, but especially with teases like the GIF above, can you blame me for being peeved at Tim just expecting the world to see Ricky and EJ as straight men with the one love interest? He dangled a golden opportunity to buck decades of stereotypes and standards in front of his own nose, and then chose to ignore it in favor of a bog standard plotline.

And that's not even getting into the really concerning possibly biphobic elements of him writing the two out bisexual cast members to be the two characters that cheated on their partners, immediately after confirming one of those characters was also bi. Or the way we brush past Maddox the neurodivergent lesbian to focus on her boring as dirt, straight brother. Or the fact that we brush past EJ being HOMELESS AND DISOWNED AND NONE OF HIS FRIENDS SEEM CONCERNED ABOUT GETTING HIM HELP.

But you know, we really needed to focus on the love triangle that was really just a corner. That was much more important.

If HSMTMTS gets a spinoff, I hope they change the showrunner to someone who'll actually appreciate the arcs they've been given rather than putting all the eggs in one boring basket.

tell me why i bought a seventeenth heaven 5:26 album, and when i received it today, the seller gave a free nct album? 🧍‍♀️🧍‍♀️ Full inclusions too? She also gave me a free Kevin from tbz photocard and Vernon FML postcard... I was so confused and at the same time happy with the freebies even though SVT is the only group I stan atm 😭😭😭 I ended up being more excited about the freebies than the svt album itself 😭😭🥹🥹
