#keep reading for my weird info dump on this AU

[borealwrites]

Whenever there was a storm, Iruka remembers his parents hiding him away. The barrier seals that cover his windows dull the thunder into a low rumble, like how he remembers the sea, and all he can see through the glass is an inky darkness. Those seals are the first ones they teach him, and they tell him to always have them on hand.

When he’s a little older, he asks why he can’t watch the storm like his friends. They tell him that around when he was born, there was a terrible storm that lasted for weeks. In desperation, his grandfather prayed to the storm gods, offering up his newly born grandson as a sacrifice if they would make them stop. And the storms stopped. Unwilling to let such a fate befall their child, his parents took him and fled to Konoha.

Iruka isn’t sure he believes in storm gods, but he loves his parents. Then the kyuubi comes, and suddenly gods don’t seem so fake anymore. So he covers his room at the orphanage and then his apartment with wards, and bites back the defensiveness when Mizuki makes fun of him. It isn’t the thunder and lightning he’s afraid of, it’s what they could bring.

When storms are coming, he can feel his skin crawl, like someone is watching him. Iruka strengthens the wards on his apartment and doesn’t take missions, instead hiding away in the Hokage Tower, where nobody can touch him. Some storms make it feel like someone if pounding at his barriers. On those nights he tucks himself into the corner of his apartment, as far from his windows as he can, and huddles under a blanket, wishing he weren’t so alone.

But Iruka cannot outrun and avoid storms forever. There’s a stillness in the air when he’s assigned a mission with Hatake Kakashi that he cannot refuse. Overhead the clouds are full and heavy with rain, and there’s a tinge of ozone that sets Iruka’s nerves on edge. Thunder rumbles in the distant sky when they find the enemy’s trail, and the clouds burst upon first clash.

It takes every bit of Iruka’s skill to keep from being overwhelmed. The enemy is too strong, and his heart too soft. All the warnings his parents repeated tug at him, and he’s too distracted.

Lightning strikes the tree that Iruka’s opponent is crouched in, close enough he can feel the heat. The air is saturated with enough chakra that Iruka feels drunk off it, even as it makes his hair stand on end. Blinking to clear the searing light from his eyes, Iruka chokes on a gasp.

Before him stands Kakashi, his arm buried in the chest of the now very crispy enemy ninja, sparks of electricity arcing almost lazily across his body. With a flick of his wrist Kakashi’s arm is free, and he glares down at the corpse. Something feels wrong, and while Iruka’s common sense screams at him to move, he feels rooted to the spot. Two eyes, one storm cloud grey and the other heat lightning red, lock onto his.

Kakashi’s hand, the one that had just killed a man, cups Iruka’s cheek. Once, while experimenting with seals, Iruka had shocked himself with a raiton based seal. It had hurt, and left his arm numb for two days. The merest brush of Kakashi’s fingers brings the same feelings for half a second before subsiding into a strange tingling sensation.

“I can finally touch you, my Iruka, my bride,” Kakashi’s voice was a low growl, an almost predatory sound that made Iruka jerk back. As soon as he broke contact with Kakashi, it seemed like all of Iruka’s strength left him. Like a puppet with cut strings he collapsed, and was only saved by Kakashi gathering him into his arms.

“Rest, Iruka. I’ll take care of everything else,” Kakashi cooed, and Iruka found himself helpless to resist. His last thought before he sank into unconsciousness was if his parents would be disappointed he didn’t fight harder.

This can now be found, in an expanded version, on Ao3

-he did this to try and get mista to read divergent (it worked ((mista hated it)))

-fugo keeps all his books in stacks and low bookshelves because he dislikes the way ceiling-high bookshelves loom over him

-he occasionally gets the extreme urge to chew on something (or more specifically to eat a rock), however save the times he is fully in his dinosaur form or close to it, his teeth aren’t strong enough to eat them :[

-which is why his gloves have many pinprick holes in them from where he chews on the extra fabric around his fingers

-diego is a total nerd about anything animal related and will happily info dump at any opportunity, but somehow still be prissy about it

-gyro is consistently baffled by at least half of the phrases that Johnny says, because he doesn’t know what they mean

-gyro saws some serious logs in his sleep (he snores very loudly)

-he has a journal he’s really secretive about

-one time Johnny read the journal and it was just dumb joke ideas and a really weird bucket list

[shadowy-suitcase-herring-neck]

Please, send the info dump. I WANNA HEAR THE FERAL NIGHTMARE AU STORY

you my friend have no idea what you have just started :)

(nightmare) The Feral nightmare au is kind of a what if to how the corruption might work differently. Essentially The corruption essentially inhibits the mind and erases memory. like thinking through a fog if that makes sense. The corruption also enhances negative emotions.

so instead of just gaining tentacles and going tyrant mode during the apple incident he just goes feral beast mode who is currently powered by fear and anger.

After the incident nightmare doesn't have the same drive most of his counterparts would have. also his memory is pretty much wiped. though he does remember certain emotions based on objects. apples make him feel anxious so he stays away from them while he collects other things such as books because they trigger a positive emotion even if he doesn't quite remember why. or how to read. His mind is much more survival driven and doesn't really care much about multiverse domination or even revenge.

he lives in an underground cave network under Dreamtale which by this time has been transformed into a shadow Forrest full of creatures that have been affected by the corruption and negativity. The place where the village and the tree of feelings was in completely barren though and everything avoids it. The cave network is mostly long twisting tunnels nightmare has made with a few massive natural caves that the tunnels connect.

Nightmare is still well known across the multiverse as he has the ability to travel between au's and he tends to cause a bit of a panic. You see nightmare feeds entirely off of negative emotions, mostly being fear. the usual way he get fear is by finding a random person and proceeding to scare the life out of them. he tries to find people who are alone because groups tend to attack more than a lone individual. Nightmare isn't exactly murderous as... he has no need to be. he doesn't eat people so. after he gets his negative emotions he usually leaves. unless the individual decides to attack then nightmare will probably kill them.

(the gang)

the gang only involves horror, killer, and dust. idk if you could really call them a gang because they are really just... well a group of sanses nightmare has kidnapped and brought to his burrow. none of them know why. none of them know anything about nightmare. they don't even know his real name or that he has one. he just kinda kidnapped them.

Not that they really mind that much. killer and dust where pretty much in an empty world at that point. and Horror had no more desire to go back anyway because his brother had died due to starvation.

Horror was the first of the gang that nightmare surprise adopted. he has been living with nightmare for about two years now. the underground river has a abundant amount of fish plus nightmare regularly goes on supply runs and grabs whatever he thinks the smaller skeleton creatures he shares a home with would like. horror is pretty good at navigating the tunnels by now.

Killer was actually the second one to be kidnapped by Nightmare. he finds living with the equivalent of a demon dragon (minus most of the dragonish part) to be rather cool. he calls nightmare Beasty but not in a bad way. he is the only one who can call him that and makes sure everyone else knows this. spends a lot of time carving wood but nightmare takes him to the surface of the au to make sure he doesn't get to bored. nightmare has to be nearby though so "the shadow creatures" don't attack killer.

Dust has only been in the burrow for about 6 months. please help this man he is so lost. what is this place and who are these people, who knows! why is this weird slimy skeleton creature keeping him hostage? he sure doesn't know. all he knows is that at least he isn't trapped in a loop anymore.

(star sanses)

Dream doesn't know what happend to his brother. he holds onto the hope that maybe he is alive out there somewhere in the multiverse but ultimately has no idea. he made friends with blue and ink and helps them protect the multiverse from all the other dangers to the multiverse because the gang wouldn't be the only one. Dream doesn't really know of his position as guardian... no one knew... he's just the guy that was also that statue Blue found in that weird desolate au.

Blue has been a sort of multiverse guard since learning about all the au's. he always wanted to do somthing like this and finda the travel and protection of the denizens of the multiverse to be quite rewarding. though he makes sure to still spend plenty of time back in under swap with his friends and brother. Dream lives with him and his brother as he needed help adjusting to modern society and stuff. Blue has a bit of a fued against nightmare as he is attempting to figure out where he keeps coming from and why he is randomly attacking people, nightmare has not been much help in this regard.

Ink id just there because Dream and Blue are his friends. and their adventures and "quests" they go on is fun and he likes spending time with them. nightmare doesn't really care about ink. Ink can just sort of watch him do stuff and he could not care less. Ink takes this opportunity many times to draw the weird goop creature. Nightmare is a little intrigued by the fact he cannot sense any emotions from ink.

(other stuff)

this au is mainly focused on how nightmare is able to slowly find himself after the corruption shattered his mind. which he is able to do somewhat. he will never be the same though.

Dream and nightmare have an interesting relationship. neither know at first that the other is their brother. Nightmare doesn't even remember having a brother beyond a vague collection of fragmented memories and sensations. but Dream definitely feels familer... and nightmare wants to know why. Dream can sense there is something familer about nightmare as well.

for anyone reading this feel free to ask any questions. it is how i share more about an au :D this ramble is just skimming the surface of lore and stuff >:3

AIGHT, INFO DUMP TIME-

This is a list of ideas/headcanons of the tfa fandom that crossed my mind, piled into one giant mess. Enjoy.

those are things that i consider canon in my works. (outside of AUs)

PLEASE READ- THE LIST KEEPS BEING UPDATED.

1. Bee has a golden voice when singing, he’s anxious about it tho. [the whole headcanon explained] After some time and events this scenario happens and Bee gets more comfortable around others.

2. Bee is basically a stuntman when skating. Casual or on battlefield, his actions are purely impulsive. Sometimes he’s lucky and pulls off that sick move... sometimes he ends up in medbay for many long hours. Here’s an example.

3. Bee is a good actor, he can lie on the spot and get away with it... most of the time. He’s also good at hiding his emotions. Fake it till you make it... or at least before Prowl comes knocking at your door.

4. Bee has 3 modes; Chaotic/Feral Gremlin, Kind Child and on rare occasion; Lazy Ferret. When he dates someone, there comes a 4th one; Lovestruck Idiot.

5. Bee is the early bird and wakes up way before the rest of the Autobots. He’s made a little routine of making the morning oil for the rest of the team. It���s the only thing he can “cook” really.

6. Sari keeps the weird healing powers the key had when she upgrades herself. Ratchet helps her figure it out and teaches her cybertronian first aid.

7. Rachet knows human curses and will use them when things are going down.

8. Sari and Bee are the young sibblings™. Prowl plays the role of the babysitter, keeping those two out of trouble.

9. Bee often vents to Prowl about topics he wouldn’t talk about with anyone. They have an unspoken agreement to never do anything to mess with the other when it comes to these meetings.

10. Prowl is accidentally creepy, he will eavesdrop or spy on someone unintentionally. He doesn’t mean it, but his curiosity can get the best of him sometimes. Here’s a list of things he eavesdropped so far.

11. Optimus is a kindsparked leader, he’ll think of the person’s wellbeing first instead of “is this okay with the law?”

12. Bulkhead sometimes helps the architects with building stuff, he likes the art aspect and the job is easy cuz he can carry like few tons of materials at once.

13. Random!Blitz will eat various things that are definitelly not meant to be eaten. Glow sticks, scraps, paint and even some organic things. He also chews on anything that he find appealing. Somehow, he has yet to end up in medbay for doing that.

14. Blitzwing likes to sculpt, he’ll carve in wood, stone, ice and metal.

15. Bee likes to set up harmless traps to mess with Prowl, his time repairing space bridges taught him how to construct things. He’s quite crafty. Unfortunatelly, Prowl still remmebers how to pull a prank in return. Here’s one of them.

16. There’s 2 versions of Megatron: cold and sadistic villain(canon) or scary but thoughful “father”(Cons Are Good AU)

17. Longarm(Shockwave) actually kinda likes Bee. The bot is optimistic, kind and funny. He likes to hang out with the scout and have some fun, but other than that he focuses on his duties as a traitor Prime.

18. Lugnut is Lugnut, he’s basically in love with Megs. Megs wants nothing to do with him except for work.

19. There’s 2 versions of Decepticons; they either want to to take over Cybertron(canon) or want equal rights and fix whatever the council has fucked up. (Cons Are Good AU)

20. Autobots and Decepticons are not separate species of transformers like i often see. They just have different builds and codings. A transformer who’s not aligned with any of the factions doesn’t have any specific behavior attached, it all depends on what they learn as a sparkling. If they choose a faction, an additional coding is added to their system which might alter their behavior slightly.

21. Since time units are very confusing in the fandom i decided to settle on this: Nanoklik (1 second), Klik (1 minute), Joor (1 hour), (Solar/Lunar)Cycle (day/night), Decacycle (week), Orbital Cycle (month), Stellar cycle (1 year). Then it all goes like normal; decades, centuries, millennia. Sometimes i will use other transformer time terms when i don’t know what else to use.

22. Ratchet, despite being a medic, dismissed his own small damages. He says he will take tare of them later but never does, which later comes back as a bigger problem. Like a trembling wheel, dimmed light or glitched comm piece. He’s learned to go fix himself when reminded about them or look for Sari.

23. Prowl has a bad habit of nightly snacking, he meditates all day long and sometimes forgets to refuel. Bad habit but he’s not really keen on stopping.

24. Shockwave/Longarm is the tech folk, the one who manages files and all, but he’s also somewhat of a medic. He knows how to patch system errors/viruses as well as fix some external damages.

25. Megatron actually remembers Optimus’ name, he just chooses to avoid using it because he has a grudge agaist the Prime for kinda offlining him.

26. Prowl doesn’t die in my timelines/AUs. Nor does Blurr. Nobody does(permanently). I just can’t let them.

27. Claws and sharp dentae are a basic upgrade you get when becoming Decepticon. Based on the frame type, there are few exceptions, example: Blitzwing has both sharp teeth and claws, but Lugnut has only sharp teeth cuz his servos are not compatible with the claws. Same with Shockwave but he's only got claws.

28. Bee was raised in the orphanage, he never brought it up to anyone. The only one to know might be the one he’d date. [See this post but exclude the adoption part]

29. Since Shockwave has 2 forms, he has something similar to Blitzwing’s multiple personalities thing- it’s not that intense, but there is a weird switch in his mind that he can activate on command. He is more laid back and cheery when he’s Longarm. When he’s Shockwave he’s very calm and focused- It’s his peak performance form, so to say. A weird thing that happens with Longarm is that he’ll be focused and calm with everyone but the second he, Bee and Bulkhead are alone- it’s time for wild fun.

30. Everyone thinks Random is the cannibal. He’s not, Icy is the one enjoying devouring a fellow mech. He keeps quiet about it, Random is just hyping it up like he usually does with everything.

31. Blackarachnia may be a mad scientist but she would help someone out if they begged her enough. She’d do everything to fix a bot- but then use them for her own goals. Every “transaction” you make with her will have the consequences... well, unless she’s “feeling generous”- which is like a miracle and you’ve probably made her feel bad if she does this.

32. Bumblebee loves to dress up. He loves human clothes, he loves cosmetic upgrades, he liked the temporary paint that is make up. He’ll never admit or show it though. He feels like if he does, he’s gonna be judged and everyone’s gonna stop liking him. Dressing up makes him feel like he’s truly pretty and amazing. He doesn’t want that feeling crushed if others find it weird and tell him to stop. Idk if “Drag Queen” is the correct term for this but he defo likes dresses and painted details like make up.

33. Bee dresses up for Halloween with Sari. Despite what i said in the previous point, he allows himself to dress up in cool costumes- usually the classics like a vampire or ghost. Never anything cute tho- those costumes are saved for his time alone. One time he made himself look like the haunted black taxi from that one movie- Optimus was on patrol and heard about some shady car scaring people so he went to check it out. Poor Bee tried to scare him too and got send to medbay. Optimus apologized for two days after that incident.

34. Bee has a job that earns him human money- in some weird chain of events he met a guy with a shop that sells old and damaged stuff. He offered to pay Bee money to bring him old stuff from garbage yards/trash stations that may be restored and sold. So now he has a fun and productive way of earning money to buy new games. He goes treasure hunting at least once a week.

35. Bee is really flexible and can basically squeeze anywhere he desires. No one knows how he does it and he constantly gets stuck in weird places. You wouldn’t think he’d fit into that heavy duty airvent, but alas, he’s there waiting for help. 

36. Bumblebee and Prowl are almost the same height; motorbikes are small, even when compared to tiny cars. Prowl is only few inches taller than Bee. He is very thin in build, Bee is more bulky and wide. Bee is also physically stronger than Prowl- Prowl is always using tactics and momentum and physics and such to gain advantage over stronger enemies.

37. Bee is a natural climber- being the short bot, it’s obvious he has to climb to reach that shelf. His servos have rough pads on them to help him stick to sufaces better. It’s especially effective with earth’s buildings since they’re made of rough concrete.

38. Bee naps in riduculous places, he’s like a ferret. He’ll squeeze or climb into places and sometimes get stuck there so others have to get him out. His favorite places to nap are Bulkheads subspace and under his berth.

39. Bee will learn anything about any game just to win. He has a self-claimed title “Game King”. One time he found out about Prowl liking chess- he spend the next few cycles on research and perfecting his skill with online chess. The “Game King” title has been made valid by everyone after Prowl got obliterated in chess by Bee.

40. Prowl has to temporarily move out of his room in winter because there is no roof. He has a back-up room for when the snow starts piling up and he can’t recharge in it. He also has to recharge in the back-up room when there is a heavy downpour and his room floods.

41. Each Team Prime member has their own love language/way fo showing affection/care. [Here i listed them]

42. At some point in the story, Bee and Bulkhead would become Amicas. Not Conjunxes(spouses)- they are Amicas(long-term best friend). [this and this]

43. I imagine Bumblebee would be a great parent- sure he’s reckless most of the time but when it comes to Sparklings- something in his mind switches and he goes full ‘Mama Bear mode’. [exaples: this and this]

44. Optimus is a great cook, he especially loves to bake. Bee is into mixology- he makes morning oil for everyone after all. Prowl cooks with organic ingredients for Sari, he wants her to eat more healthy so he takes it upon himself to make sure she does. [anker post]

45. Bee loves racing, in AU or not. He’ll go up to anyone and challange them to a race. The winner gets the respect of being faster. Blitzwing is Bee’s go-to race rival, they have fun together and mess around on some occasion. [anker post]

46. Bee got crayons from Bulkhead. Sometimes he will draw things- he drew a picture for their first christmas and everyone loves it, it’s hanging in the main room now.

47. Here you have Halloween and Christmas traditions with the group cuz i’m too lazy to write an entire point for it.

48. IMPORTANT FOR ALL NSFW WORKS: Interfacing and Sparklings. My version is different from the ususal sexual spike/valve thing. C’mon they’re ALIENS. I have it all written out in this post.

49: Bumblebee, Sari and Bulkhead are The Gamer Trio. They always play multiplayer games together when they’re not busy. Sometimes Prowl joins them for specific games. [anker post]

50. Team Prime + Sari have preffered food flavors n such. [anker post]

51. Team Prime + Sari having trouble sleeping/recharging and doing stuff instead of that. Nightly habits list. [anker post]

52. Bee has ADHD, you can’t convince me otherwise. He has also been diagnosed with depression later on. Oh, also Prowl is on autism spectrum. Dw, they take meds for that. [adhd+autism post here, Bee having depression here]

53. Bee talks in his sleep. It’s easy to tell if he’s having a nightmare or not. He’s just murmuring what is happening in his dream, not every night but surprisingly often. Funny enough you could have a conversation with him like this. [anker post]

54. Ratchet volunteers as medical assistance in Detroit. The messed up USA healthcare system is beyond what Cybertron had.

55. Bee goes mute when he’s feeling sad/dealing with trauma and/or overwhelmed by a situation. He uses ASL to communicate when that happens. [anker post]

56. There are differenced between Seeker and Grounder customs and behaviors. [anker post]

57. Different frame types have classification and subclassification. [anker post]

if there’s more i come up with, i will update this post. thank you for reading this text wall.

[dissvicious]

Hey so I wanted to say thank you, as your Redbomb AU has now produced a fan kid in my head. I wanted to show her to you, cause I love her and she has been haunting my mind for a bit.

Since you're AU is her inspo i felt like info dumping about heIn this AU dracule brings shikai (my OC) home before the tragedy at the monastery, and basically they spar they hook up. mihawk dips as he is busy doing aloof swordsman stuff. shikai raises Arabelle as best she can via her travels, teaching her daughter how to commune with the sea and use haki.

the headcannon is she is snagged off an island post time skip, warning the slavers that she brings trouble. meets blaze, she finds him to be a kind and funny guy and does her best to reassure him, hoping to finally make a friend her age range (legit thinks he is hillarious, but not attracted to him any further than that.). shikai saves them, and then finds out the boy is her old friend buggy's kid, offers to return him to whereever. before they go anywhere mihawk shows up a touch late, shikai explaining the situation as the slavers wearing their collars drift away from the boat and go boom.

then arabell points out mihawk was supposed to be at home but left her with the humandrills.

mihawk tries to be a good dad but sucks hard at it, but truly loves his darling daughter. she has a great sense of humor and often jokes or roasts her dad for being "un romantic" towards her mom. calling him out more so out of honesty than spite. (arabella meets the other redbomb kids and starts crushing on both blazes siblings.)

after all that i thank you for reading, being an awesome artist, and i hope me info dumping wasn't weird. ( i would have DM'd you but honestly a bit of a huge message tbh)

Honestly thank you so much for this. I loooooove OC interaction I love playing with them like dolls and I'm so happy if my clown tribe inspire you ç.ç ♥️

Arabella is such a cute teen and I love the idea of Mihawk kids and Buggy kids getting along :3 not gonna say anything about the AU story tho

In case someone wonder I'm always in for OC interaction!! As long as you keep it sfw for reason I hope are obvious ♥️

(also I see you making OC to save the triplets from the angst I'm cooking. I just saw a post saying "lost my oc custody in court". Is it. Is it what just happened to me?/j)

[sparky-is-spiders]

for the ask game: 15 & 28 👀

This... actually got a bit long lmao. Putting it under a cut.

(Send me deep/fun questions!)

15: No except yes. But also no. So like. I don't believe in jinxing. But also I sort of believe that if I say that something is/isn't going to happen (or even believe it), this will influence it to happen. Like if I say "I'm going to win this pvp fight in my shitty mobile game of the month" I will then lose the pvp fight in my shitty mobile game of the month. Unless I knock on wood (hit/tap it with my fist twice. And it CAN'T be three times because I don't like that number). If no wood is available I can also do the "touch red touch blue touch the bottom of your shoe" rhyme for jinxing from elementary school that I've almost certainly remembered wrong. I think I initially picked it up as like. A haha funnyquirky habit, but then NOT doing it made me genuinely anxious and I was like "oh maybe I should stop this now." I do still sort of do that tho. Like I'll think "I'm going to win this pvp fight in my shitty mobile game of the month" and then I'll go "no don't say/think that you don't know that for sure thinking/saying that is inviting the universe to sabotage you." And I know it's bullshit but that has yet to stop me. And that's my superstition.

28: Oh god. Tossup between Jon//elias and jon//sasha (I don't want this ask showing up in their tags so I'm censoring it lol. JE is what I'm currently hyperfixated on. My brain sunk its teeth into those two and Will Not let go. They're so fascinating and interesting but at the same time there's so much potential for Drama and above all else I Love Drama. It helps that I can project my Jon Obsession onto Elias because he IS straight up So Fucking Weird about Jon!!!!! And Jon is also sooooo fixated on him. They drive me crazy.

I don't (currently) have the same hyperfixation obsession on JS but I think they work so well like genuinely. Ok so there is a Sasha that exists in my head and I think she and Jon are soulmates in a "deeply similar" way and a "tied by the strings of fate" way and a "turning into the same monster" way. The idea of two people just slowly merging into one monster... like ok. They are the Same because they would both forget to drink their tea and then reheat it in the microwave. They are the Same because they are so curious and so driven to Know. They are the Same because they are both Perfect for the role of Archivist. Gonna be real I cannot take 90% of archivist Sasha AUs seriously for exactly this reason. It's literally always Sasha being boring and making all the "correct" decisions and also trying to set up J//mart because Of Course. You're telling me Sasha "I'm staying in my objectively dangerous job because I Need To Know" James, Sasha "seeks out other people's personal info for fun" James, Sasha "got two marks within thirty seconds of each other" James would save the world? No. Sasha would be just as "reckless" (read: desperate for info about the real terrifying and credible danger she is in) as Jon, maybe more so. She WOULD like being able to compel. She WOULD like getting invasive info about other people dumped in her brain. And she should have those things! She deserves them <3. Anyway I think the vibes of Jon and Sasha becoming the same monster (not them both becoming Archivists, but becoming THE Archivist), of them defending each other, covering up for each other, promising everyone else to do better, to keep the other in check, and then spiraling down the same path together, are IMMACULATE. There is also just a general appeal in someone who instantly Gets You. Who fully understands you. Actually this applies to both so New Paragraph <3.

Ok so my favorite shipping dynamic ever in general is "they know each other too well." It is having two (or more, but not many more) people who know each other on a deep, fundamental level. Who see the dark hidden crevices, the real face beneath every mask. Who understand each other better than they understand themselves. Who knows that their partner understands them just as well too. And it's messy, and sometimes unpleasant, and nobody else gets it. But when you observe them when it's only them, interacting when they think they're utterly alone, you learn things that crack your understanding of them apart. Seeing them interact and getting new insight into both of them, vulnerabilities they'd never reveal even in private. Which is probably why I'm so obsessed with outsider PoVs.

[flowerslut]

i don’t think this is having the effect you wanted because i have never in my life been more curious about a fic than i have for call of the night

i’m laughing so hard. I feel like a parent who is about to talk to their teen about weed or alcohol like "I know I can't stop you from going out and looking for it. but I want you to do it responsibly."

alright. listen. it’s not a bad fic by any means—if I say "it's bad" my wife is gonna materialize and rip me a new asshole—it’s very fun and it’s long as fuck and I got real intricate with the politics and worldbuilding. its an AU that I built from the ground up with some kung fu panda influence if you really squint that has turned into a multi-story series which I’ve had an absolute blast working on. but here’s the thing: I started writing it when I was 16/17. in fact, I wrote the first 50k words of it during the first half of my senior year of high school (hand-written bc this was 2009) so when I found my old fanfic binder in 2017, and when I started rewriting it later that year, I finished it, but I didn’t rewrite that much of it. which is the problem. because the amount of crappy characterization, unnecessary info-dumping (so much telling, not showing), and weird narrative choices is so overwhelming in the first few chapters that it's been unbearable for me to look back on. I recently tried to reread it and was horror-stricken when I realized that I couldn’t do it bro 💀

again: it is not bad. it’s a very cool premise and a super fun and adventurous au. it's a very slow burn. it just has an insanely rough (poorly written imo) start. and since its my most popular twilight fic, and that's what people usually read first, i'm now in hell knowing how many people nope-out after the first few chapters (myself, included recently) thinking "damn. that was rough. next." the writing quality of the middle and end compared to the beginning is leagues better, but its just that first chunk that has me in hell.

but yada yada yeah I can't stop you so, tldr; in call of the night, humans and vampires coexist. the cullens are pseudo-politicians/public figures who help keep the peace. alice has lived her entire life in relative isolation because of her first, terrifying vision: that a man named jasper is going to murder her. so, boy is she in for a treat when she realizes her new coworker who skulks around the library is that Very Dude. and thats where the shit-show really begins. I have a tag ("cotn") with hundreds of posts surrounding the series, but I don't recommend looking at it unless you want to be spoiled for it and its sequel. but if you're going to do it, i'd rather you do it in the house (here you go 😔)

Mineko Old Art Dump, Cont.

Part 2 of 2 :

Now, time for info!

So, for starters: her name. As mentioned multiple times by now, her name is Asano Mineko, as in 峯子. Whereas Karma gets his kanji from their mother (my OC Kuniko) and Gakushuu gets his partially from their father, Mineko gets the remaining two from both. I was trying to see if there was a similar “updated” thing with Gakuhou’s second kanji (like how 学 is derived from 學), but that doesn’t seem to be the case from what I could find. So even though I don’t need to explain why they did that for Gakushuu and Mineko, I came up with one anyway: it’s a trade-off. Gakushuu keeps the reading over the exact kanji, and Mineko keeps the exact kanji over the reading (Mineko was always the plan, though; not fond of “Houko”, especially for her).

I also mentioned this before, but since I’m dumping quite a bit of info about her here, I’ll mention it once more: Mineko’s the middle child, with her birthday being January 1st, just like her younger brother. In these AUs, Karma could be born on the same day, or he could still be born on Christmas—both ways are possible, though I have a slighter preference for the former for some reason.

Before I get into her personality a little, lemme explain some of the drawings. Only some things. The rest will definitely be mentioned in a character sheet—or before: if I happen to draw it again before it gets done, I’ll probably talk about it at least a bit. Let’s go in order now, shall we?

So, um, height? Mineko’s tall, but idk, I feel like I made her too tall in that Until Dawn AU sketch (she’s not in the AU officially, but I do think about her in it from time to time. And jeez, I need to post about that AU some more…). Either that, or I made Rio too short. Like, idk, year 3 Mineko is 5’6” (167 cm), and she’ll be 5’8” (172 cm) at her tallest.

Second: er, you know that sketch that looks like she’s holding a large ice cream cone in a weird way? Uh, yeah, that’s supposed to be a telescope ^^;;; I just never got around to adding the tripod… or, like, referencing an actual telescope instead of from memory, oops. I might actually turn that into a proper post, but no plans as of the moment. But yeah, anyway: Mineko loves astronomy, and one of her favorite hobbies is star-gazing.

Another one of her favorites that I feel like mentioning now, too, is she loves listening to and composing music—mainly instrumentals/orchestral music. She’s the kinda girl you’d invite to an opera, haha (though, not romantically; she’s aroace. The main reason why this is is because I did not want to end up making an OC to pair with her (this has happened multiple times before with others, so this is a way of me putting my foot down with her, haha). That, and it kinda references the fact that at some point in time I headcanoned Karma and Gakushuu as aroace. Though, I still do personally see them being somewhere on the spectrum. But yeah, she aroace).

Then that one sketch where the art style’s very different from the rest—I’m actually not too fond of it anymore, especially the face, but I thought to include because I like the rest of the sketch and especially because—you know that art style I dub my doodle style? The one where the nose connects to the upper lip, and if the mouth’s open, I add a bottom lip? The one I introduced Mineko in? Yeah, fun fact: this sketch was the start of that art style. It’s changed a lot since, but perhaps I wouldn’t have drawn in it were it not for Mineko, haha.

Last thing before I get to her personality and stuff: I’ll mention something about the traditional sketches. Idk if you can tell, but Mineko is a huge junk-foodie—a sucker for fast food. She still keeps track of healthy food, for the most part—but yeah, she’d never turn down fast food, haha. Also, regarding the water: she’s more likely to casually see food in a “romantic light” than she ever is people, haha.

Speaking of, I headcanon both Karma and Gakushuu as good cooks—they can whip up something decent, at least, haha. Mineko on the other hand has no such interest. She’s got her brothers, after all. She doesn’t see a reason to… until she grows up, and her brothers are living their lives, and she realizes she’s got no one to cook for her anymore… Welp, fast food and restaurants have never left her down before, haha.

Ok, now I’ll finally discuss her personality a bit… well, traits? I wanna talk about her intelligence first. She’s a very smart girl, being in 3-A, but she’s not as smart as her brothers and has to try harder to somewhat be on the same level grade-wise—definitely not touching the virtuosos, but 3-A all the same. She also participates in extracurriculars but not nearly as many as Gakushuu—she can only handle so much.

But while she knows she may not have as high an IQ as her brothers, she very much believes she has a higher EQ than them. And to her credit, she does, but probably not by nearly as much as she thinks. See, she’s emotionally repressed, too—don’t let that smile fool you, haha.

For one, she doesn’t like conflict and does her best to smooth things over when/if she can, play the middle man (she likes to think of herself as a bridge, connecting two conflicting sides (especially her brothers; she also likes to say that’s the reason why she’s shorter than them, as (certain types of) bridges tend to dip below the two points they’re connecting, haha. Just a silly thought she likes to muse)). She likes fixing conflicts but would never intentionally start any. Cautious of stepping on toes.

That’s always why she tries her best to plaster on a smile regardless of how she feels—everything’s fine, don’t you know? She’s completely happy with her circumstances; don’t ever worry otherwise! She should be more worried about you than you about her! But yeah, she’ll either only let it slip should a situation get too stressful that she can’t keep it up or if she believes she’s all by herself. All that said, she’s usually fine. Usually. It’s just… when she isn’t…

Also, this girlie’s got major trust issues and is a misanthrope (Gakuhou’s her dad; enough said). She does believe that, of course, not all of humanity is bad. It’s just… she doesn’t trust individuals, especially the more friendly seeming ones. She’s been raised in a family of masks, adorning one herself, so she has no clue whether someone is being genuinely kind or not. It’s just easier for her not to trust them rather than be let down. Everyone’s got hidden agendas, it seems.

And while she’s friendly and polite to everyone regardless of her suspicions—even when there’s blatant evidence she’s right. Because she wants to be kind and helpful regardless. And again, she kinda believes most are like that anyway. Proof is just more of a confirmation of something she believes already—and while most would find her company agreeable, she currently doesn’t have any friends outside her brothers. And nor does she care to. She doesn’t see what she’s missing. Why would you hang out with someone who’s potentially fake? While helpful, she tries to make herself scarce whenever she can.

But yeah, the only way she’ll ever make friends is through a whole lot of interaction; she needs to be able to build up that trust and feel safe. Being close to her brothers is a good start, but she’ll still be wary for a good while. Not something easy, essentially, and could take years. Hence, no friends as of the moment.

Er, yeah, I guess that’ll be all I’ll share for the moment. Ended up being a lot longer than I thought, but I don’t feel like cutting anything either. So yeah; here is she! I adore her, so I hope you like her, too, or find her interesting at least ^^

I feel like you know about her more than the other OCs I’ve already revealed when they’ve been out for a couple years now. Oops ^^;;

[sdvbraindump]

Soooo... before I started Meteorite, I had another fanfic called Head Over Heels that I was working on. It was more canon to the Stardew Valley game with minor changes (I actually made Clint likable and less creepy haha). I call this fic more suitable for Wattpad because of how fluffy it gets.

Meteorite started as an idea off of Head Over Heels when I thought of it as what if the farmer and Shane knew each other but it didn't make sense to the story. So here we are!

Inspired by @maylilithreign tag earlier I want to share some of that story. Below is an excerpt from that fic (1285 words). Head Over Heels is set in a different AU than Meteorite with completely different characters.

This scene takes place after Shane visits the farmer Laney after his 6-heart event when he says he's going to see a therapist. Laney invites Shane for coffee and they talk.

I'll come back to this one day. It's also a long fic but Meteorite is really fun for me now. Once that's complete I'll probably go back and finish this. And yes there's also angst and smut in it too.

CW: panic attacks, anxiety, discussion of mental health

The two sat together on Laney’s porch, looking out over the farm, as they spoke. Shane did his best to make small talk as he asked her how the farm was. In reality, he was feeling anxious. He listened as she spoke while the feeling of dread was taken over his mind. But at the same time, he was also enjoying her company. He smiled a little as he listened to Laney’s progress with her coop and chickens.

“They seem to be happy,” she said, looking into her mug. “I was able to pick up one yesterday. They used to run from me.”

“It sounds like you’re doing well with the chickens,” Shane said before taking a sip. “If you keep this up they should be able to give you large eggs soon.”

“Well thank you for the tips. I know I can look it up online or read from a book. But think it’s better to get this info directly from an expert.”

“I’m not an expert. I learned from trial and error as well as research.”

“Yes, but you still need to be able to do everything right. Marnie says you’re the Chicken Whisperer.”

“Buh,” he said. “It’s easier to deal with chickens than people at times.” He stared out into the farm. “They don’t judge or make things difficult.” Shane looked down on the ground. “You must think I’m weird to think like that.”

“No, I get it. It’s like crops in a way.”

Shane continued to look at the ground. “You must think I’m pathetic after you found me in the woods.” He quietly said. “I’m nothing compared to you and what you got here.”

Laney shook her head in his direction, even though he didn’t see. “I don’t think anything like that at all.”

He ignored her comment. “You know, the name 'Shane' means 'Gift from Yoba.’ What a joke.” He snorted and finished the rest of his coffee in one gulp. “Sorry for dumping on you. I don’t expect you to understand.”

Laney slowly placed her mug on the step below her and stared out into the field. She took a deep breath before she spoke. “A month before I moved here, I had a severe panic attack at work. It was so bad that I had to go to the ER. I’ve had minor anxiety attacks in the past but this was my first full-blown panic attack. It was like I couldn’t breathe and my heart wouldn’t stop racing.”

Shane looked over at Laney when she said panic attack. She didn’t turn to him as she continued.

“And to be honest with you, I don’t even know what brought it on. Maybe I was overthinking something for work or stressing about my life. I don’t remember what happened. It’s like I blacked out.” She sighed to herself. “How pathetic does that sound?”

“That’s not pathetic at all,” he insisted.

She put her head to the ground as she continued. “I’ve had anxiety since I was in middle school, and it’s increased as I got older. Luckily I had my older brother to help me deal with it when we were in school, but I can’t continue to rely on him to be there for me as an adult. He has his own life to deal with. A little after my panic attack, my dad got an offer from Joja to buy this land but he refused since my grandfather left the property to me and my brother. So we decided that I should move here for a year to see if we should keep this farm. Kind of like I ran away from my problems in the city.”

Laney kept her attention on the ground. “I don’t know exactly the pain you’re dealing with Shane, and to be honest I don’t think I ever will. I bet you think I’m some overly confident person who has everything figured out. It’s all an act. I know what it feels like to be in a hole so deep and dark that you feel you’ll never get out of it. You feel that the darkness surrounding you is so much that even if you take one step forward to get yourself out you’d fall 5 steps behind. You feel like no matter what happens it’s going to end up bad so you don’t want to try.”

Shane looked at her, taken back at her statement. “You remember our talk that night?”

Laney nodded before continuing. “But since I came here I’ve seen a little bit of light coming through that darkness. And I like to think that every day I’m here the light gets bigger and stronger. Still have a long way to go but know I will get there someday. And maybe one day I won’t need to fake it.”

She turned her attention to him. “I know it is easier said than done, but I know you can pull yourself out of that abyss.”

He snorted. “Nice to see you have such high hopes for me.”

“And why shouldn’t I?”

He hesitated. “Do you really think I can do it?”

Laney stared right at him, her violet eyes sparkling. “If you didn’t you wouldn’t have asked me to take you to the hospital. You would have told me to leave you.”

Shane’s eyes grew big. “Maybe I was just too drunk.”

She shook her head. “You need to give yourself more credit.” She leaned closer. “Shane, I know you have the strength to do it. Marnie and Jas do as well. And I know you don’t think of me as a friend, but I believe in you.”

Shane felt something inside him as she said that. He didn’t know if it was surprise or relief, but it was the first time in a while that he felt that someone wasn’t judging him. She sounded like she was genuinely understanding. The look in her eyes wasn’t pity or disgust but encouragement.  He leaned over, not taking his eyes off her.

Laney felt herself getting nervous as she was close enough to get a good look at him. She saw that his eyes were actually green instead of the dark brown she always assumed. He looked calm as he stared at her. He’s actually kind of cute despite everything, she thought as she studied his face.

The two didn’t say anything as they stared at each other. Shane leaned closer to her until they were interrupted by a ringtone.

“Oh!” Laney leaned back and immediately stood up. She turned away from him to hide her blushing face. “I forgot, I have a call this morning!”

Shane also turned away from her and covered his face with his fist to hide he was also blushing. “You should take it. I need to head out anyway.” He quickly stood up and put his mug on the porch step, still covering his face. 

“Are you sure? You can stay! It shouldn’t take that long.”

“No it’s fine!” Shane started walking away from the house. “I’ll see you around.” He didn’t turn around as he waved goodbye, still covering his face.

Laney watched him walk away, feeling guilty all of a sudden. Her thoughts were interrupted again by her ringtone and she reluctantly pulled her phone out of her back pocket. She answered the call while she did her best to calm down.

Shane rushed to the bus stop once he was off the farm. He tried to calm himself down but Laney’s words kept replaying in his head. He put his hands to face as he tried to compose himself. 

“Did I really just try to kiss her?” Shane asked out loud to no one. 

[waythroughtheice]

God fucking damn it. Maybe I should write something. Just to get my brain to stop.

Geo Wily au.

Kelvin comes back to a cult that is not run by his wife (did nobody read his backup plans? They said to introduce the cult to his wife and not drag his son into anything until he was an adult. Why did they? Geo is a child!?!?!) but his son. His son. Who is a superhero. A superhero the world is convinced is a Hikari. Geo. Child. How?

Grampa Wily is laughing.

The Cult refuses to let Kelvin take back over.

Geo was the best leader they had. Geo gave them treats for good behavior! He didn't immediately stop the money laundering schemes (Geo: What's a money laundering?). Geo is the Cult's dad now. (Geo, very tired: I have no idea how we got here and am afraid to ask. All I did was give them stickers and candy for not committing crimes.)

Grandpa Wily refuses to leave Geo. Every time Kelvin takes him he just device hops back to Geo with Omega-Xis's help. Grandpa's favourite.

Kazuma, meanwhile. Is dealing with the dreaded twins. They are. So chaotic. Kazuma kind of wishes he could trade circumstances because at least the Cult can't device hop away from consequences. Please stop getting him banned from locations.

I like to imagine in SF3 all Netnavis became Wizards. Grandpa Wily is free(ish). Granpa has a larger area to encourage children towards evil. Lan and Hub are also commiting crimes. They are breaking and entering to get their boy the best they can. Because it's been 200 years, the laws can't have changed that much, right? They don't even realise. Dr Wily is following the law better than the chaos twins is what I'm saying.

At somepoint the Wily Cult becomes Geo's Cult. Because they adore him. Geo can do no wrong in their eyes. Except working with the cops (generalized). Copper is the exception. They like him. He gives them fun tidbits of info in exchange for not wreaking havoc for a week. (Geo finally asked an adult for help and boy howdy he got it.)

I like to imaging SF2 has a lot of Cult saving lost children shenanigans. Buddicus? No. Bud is kidnapped home before Geo gets there. There are a few memory issues but the familiar environment fixes that quick.

Hope only learns about the Cult when Kelvin asks her how she's been keeping them in check.

Funnily enough, with Geo in charge the Cult grows. Also funny is when he goes back to school half the faculty is made up of cult members. (They were worried about him.)

Pat gets recruited by Geo when he finds out about the dump. Geo's only intentional recruit. (Geo may have tried with Solo. Solo now has a place to go to for help. Solo rarely goes but sometimes he gets sick and just crashes there.)

Grampa Wily approves of this method of world takeover. Kind and just ruler accidentally spreading influence? Sure.

Lan and Hub approve because hey. It's not murder they guess. Kazuma is very tired. But hey. Friendly rivalries are fun.

Kelvin is--so not ready for when he comes back. He expects to find a cult completely under control of his lovely wife, his son safe and sound, and--

What do you mean Geo is the Boss of the Wily Cult.

GRANDPA GET OVER HERE--

Grandpa Wily has had many grandkids over the years and loved them all. He loves Kelvin of course, but.....Kelvin is a goody-two shoes. Geo has sense. Geo is subverting the enemy. Geo is a primo-candidate for world take over.

Geo is his favorite.

Kazuma eventually, in a fit of frustration, introduces the twins to Luna (big mistake), Geo's cult (bigger mistake), and to WAZA (biggest mistake). The Twins recognize Luna as Chad's descendent, grow appalled at her neglectful parents, and call in Protoman.exe for help. But, ah.....all the Netnavis come back, and suddenly all the kids have very watchful NetNavis as as their Wizards. And with the Real Wave technology, they can pop out human sized and interact with the world whenever they like. Is this what parents are like? Weird.

The Twins join Geo's cult for the lols, and quickly become its marketing people. The cult spreads.

The Twins subvert WAZA also for lols, and also for the massive breaches in privacy the police do. This becomes a massive thing a couple years in the future.

Geo eventually becomes World Leader as an adult, because the world loves him. Kazuma is dying in the background. Geo gives him all the paperwork.

ok fuckers.

Info dumping about my aus time

Let's start simple.

A forgotten tale/scrappedtale:

An au I throw all my abandoned ideas in a sort of like an omega timeline but for scrapped ideas expect they aren't fucking safe from error because it's a normal au expect it's just a bunch of scrapped shit. The main guy of this au is the first fucker who appeared in the au named Scrap, who is a chill guy with ADHD and autism because his original au was called "Whatever the fuck is wrong with me tale" he is the proud father of two bitties named sunny and paint, they are very silly, Scrap is also a musician

Undermmo:

Chara, Asriel, papyrus, undyne, and alphys, well technically not them but I'll call them that, (note they're all human) after some crowdfunding make an mmo, all the characters in the mmo are based on either the staff behind on the mmo or people the staff know (like toriel in the mmo is based on asriel and chara's mom) but 2 characters are unique... sorta, gaster and sans are papyrus' characters family which papyrus is using as a way to cope because trauma, as the mmo continues to update gaster and sans being to become more and more aware... gaster is the first one to Crack and gain sentience (well some form of sentience since sentience in it of itself is poorly defined but anyway) but manages to stay on task and continue to play his role meanwhile sans is going slightly insane, then the 7 fallen update drops, bringing in 7 new characters making Chara's character no longer the only human, 6 of the seven are completely original to the mmo while frisk is based on chara and asriel's adoptive sibling, frisk almost immediately gains sentience thanks to the player (not the in universe player, the YOU sort of player) and they basically get to decide whether or not they want to follow along with the script of their life or find a new path for the story

Chara and the rest of the irl crew have their own plot line but it's mostly them being goofy and overworking themselves because their publisher is giving them strict deadlines. Also at one point irl toriel plays the game and says she really likes the sans character which causes a weird running joke in the office about sans fucking your mom.

Underspore:

Sansby au where snowdin is overrun by a fungal parasite and grillby's becomes a safe haven because the fungi is weak to fire, snowdin is put into quarantine separating sans and papyrus becomes papyrus was staying with undyne for "training camp" before the outbreak happened, sans get infected of course and the au is basically grillby helping sans fighting off the infection while knowing that ultimately sans is going to die. Sans dies in grillby's arms, blind and unable to move

Anyway Sans aka spore is really silly and strange while infected and I love him but he keeps fucking dying

Understage: pretty simple an au where fights are actually stage performances, almost everything is solved via improvised plays, you can choose to play along or actually fucking kill people which is really easy in the beginning but after awhile people stop performing with you and you have to chase them down and kill them as they struggle to fight you, anyway everyone has on stage personas expect sans who is one of the stagehands, toriel is retired, papyrus's fight is silly, undyne's fight is pirate themed, mettaton's fight is a musical (don’t ask how he manages to improvise an entire musical, he's gay) asgore is the only non genocide fight that is an actual fight but it still happens on a stage. Sans just beats you too death back stage because he's tired of your shit

Those are my core 4 non-multiverse aus. I would go into extreme detail about everything about these aus but I don't think you want to read all of that

Next time we cover my multiverse aus

[totally-not-my-drama]

Ever after high AU info dump

Well with 39,1% the Ever after high au won the poll. It shouldn't surprise me as much as it did honestly.

While it's already a bit further than it's last concept it's not even close to being done, mainly due to me concentrating on other AUs. But to fill enough space and give you alot knowledge I give you an entire run down of what me and my friend, @ccaramel-candy have so far! I'm not exactly good with explaining what I want to say/ what ideas I have but I try my best.

Warning stuff:

One thing I want to get out of the bat is that the fairytales changed to make it more comfortable and less confusing. And so that everyone gets it and I don't get any complains: This is purely a Noco story. If you don't like the ship pls carry on!

Now with that out of the way let's get started:

description:

This Au plays like ever after high in a school for fairy tale children. But instead of following Snow whites daughter, we follow this Aus Sleeping beauty's child Noelle (Noah in this AU is Trans ftm and is refereed at the beginning as Noelle (She/ her) and later into the Story as Noah (He/ Him). Just so you don't get confused) and how she handles school in general. Sounds easy but it isn't when everytime someone annoys you with something, be it your potential future prince charming, your roommate who has yet another problem or the school erupts into chaos because someone is making a problem. And all Noelle wants is being left alone to read. And the school year has just started!!!

General Info:

-The main character here is Noah and Cody as sleeping beauty and their prince charming (So it's a Noco focused story)

-Pretty much everyone is from Total drama or has a connection to Total drama (like OCs) Tho there are still some thoughts and planning to be made

-While everyone has their own rooms and roommates in their dorms the rules that are binded to it are a bit.... well they aren't clear to anyone in school.

-the school has somewhat a mind of it's own. It's not clear however if someone used magic on it or if it was always "alive".

-while the conflict between royals and rebels was clearer in the original ever after high, it only starts to get a real story point later on in this AU. But the conflict does start at the beginning already but more of a sub plot!

-Fairytales are definetly rewritten from their original source material for various reasons, but there are also changes due to other characters actions!

Character Roles:

There aren't many yet which might be because I don't think of this AU as much as I should to give everyone a proper fairytale role but this is who I have so far:

Sleeping Beauty = Noelle/Noah

Prince charming = Cody

Belle = Edith (<- my OC)

Beast = Ezekiel

Cinderella = Mimi (<- @ccaramel-candy OC)

Red Riding Hood = Mike + his System

Evil Queen = Heather

Mad Hatter = Izzy

Littl Mermaid = Birdgette

Big bad wolf = Scott

Relationships:

The relationships with each other hopefully will be a big plotpoint how I intend to have it. This could also be confusing in some areas which either cause lack of context/ not much context or because I try to over explain this but I try my best!

Noelle:

While Noelle is the main protagonist, there aren't currently many relationships other than a few people. Not because I have no idea but because she wants to be left alone and read her books. However there are definetly 2 main people that are consistent:

-Cody the more overconfident prince charming, already setting his eyes on noelle as his destiny. He tries to get her to know her more so that later on their destiny doesn't come off as weird when cody has to kiss her awake.

-and Edith who is her current roommate, who brings a few problems pests pets to the table. Not exactly a thing allowed in school or the dorms but Noelle keeps quiet for her mainly cause it doesn't concern her (and a few petting sessions from time to time are actually nice).

Then there are also some minor ones, like Izzy who just wants her to join the crazy tea party's. Mike or rather specific Svetlana who drops by every 2 weeks to ask for a lipgloss both her and Edith share (Noelle is still confused why). Mimi also hangsout sometimes but more when Edith is with her. Then there is Owen. Defiantly somewhat friends but interact more in cooking class than exactly outside.

(I don't want to make this post all too long so I keep the relationship mainly to Noelle for now! I might make a seperate post for the rest I have)

Well that is all I have so far for this AU. I might plan a few things now that it is on my mind again but I hope you liked my ramble. See ya!

<;- Chapter Eight - Chapter Ten ->

“I’M SORRY, YOU and Jisung are what now?”  Ah Joong’s mouth hung open, a piece of pizza hovering mere centimeters from her mouth.  “For how long?”

All of the others stared at Jiho and Jisung like they’d just told them they were aliens from outer space.  The couple sat together on the floor with their fingers intertwined and mutual warm smiles on their faces.  Everyone else stared in disbelief for a few seconds as they processed the news.  

“Um.  Around two months?”  Jiho guessed.  “But we’ve been dating a little longer than that, we just made it official two months ago.”

“Come on, you guys really didn’t know?”  Chohui glanced between each and every face to gauge their knowledge level.  “Am I really the only one who knows about this?”

“She told you?”  Eunbyeol gaped. 

“No, I’m just observant.”  

“We didn’t tell you because we didn’t want to make things weird with the competition coming up.”  Jisung explained.  “So, we decided to have an afterparty together so that we could share this with you guys.”

“That’s awesome!”  Seungmin spoke up, his voice muffled from the pizza he shoved into his mouth.  “I’m so happy for you guys, it’s about time.”

“How did I not know?”  Eunbyeol stared at the couple.  “I sit right next to you!”

“It wasn’t exactly easy to keep it from you.”  Jiho admitted slowly.  “I feel really bad that I had to keep my crush on him a secret.”

“Wow...”  Eunbyeol trailed off, grabbing her second slice of pizza and starting on it.  She had a feeling she would need another bottle of soju if she wanted to get through the night.  “Too many things are happening at once.”

The kids all crowded around the too-small coffee table where the pizza boxes were open and laid out.  Some of them sat on the couch while others resigned themselves to the floor.  Ah Joong produced paper plates for them to use so they wouldn’t all be crowded over the pizza like animals.  For now, the bottles of alcohol were stored safely on the kitchen counter along with the other snacks.  Music still played quietly from the TV, which filled the awkward silences.  A few minutes ago, everyone had been too hungry to think about being upset about the boys joining the party but the more Eunbyeol ate, the heavier the dread settled in her heart.  She already spent every day sitting less than three feet from Felix so why would she want to spend an entire night in the same apartment with him?

Jiho and Jisung sat together on the couch with their knees touching, having given up on holding hands so they could eat.  Eunbyeol wanted to be upset about being kept in the dark about the relationship, but something about the smile on Jiho’s face made all of her annoyance melt away.  Jiho only kept the secret for the sake of the team so they wouldn’t be stressed out.  Eunbyeol figured that she might very well have been worried about their relationship, but ultimately the only thing that mattered at the end of the day was Jiho’s happiness.    

“Jisung-ah, I’m happy for you and all but how did you keep it from Seungmin and I this entire time?”  Felix shared Eunbyeol’s thoughts on the matter. 

“Well, he was able to keep the notes they passed back and forth hidden from you easier.”  Seungmin reminded him.  “I got to see everything!”

“You knew, too?”  Felix gasped like he’d been kicked in the shin.  “Jesus, am I really that oblivious?”

“Yes, Felix, you are so goddamn oblivious.”  Jeongin patted Felix’s knee reassuringly. 

“Come on, you didn’t know either!”  

“Maybe so, but there are a lot of things that you’re oblivious about.”  

“What the actual fuck does that mean?”  Felix blinked in surprise.  

Instead of answering, Jeongin shook his head and grabbed another slice of pizza, leaving Felix to stare blankly.  For a few minutes, the kids sat in silence while they ate, occasionally humming in appreciation of the food or the music playing in the background.  Eunbyeol glanced around the room at each person, wondering just how the hell they were supposed to party like this.  She certainly didn’t have any ideas and she hoped that someone else did. 

Thankfully, someone finally started talking.  Someone murmured quietly to someone else and slowly but surely actual conversations began to occur.  Eunbyeol sighed with relief as the murmuring gradually got louder and louder until the voices of the overs drowned out the music.  Ah Joong and Seungmin talked about some manga they were both reading while Gayoung, Minjeong, and Jeongin shared their favorite mukbang streamers.  Jiho and Jisung whispered to each other under the noise, looking like a proper couple.  Eunbyeol couldn’t help but to smile at the thought.    

Then, her eyes landed on Felix.  Just like her, Felix had yet to take his makeup off but he changed into jeans and a t-shirt with a light flannel over it.  He looked like a Kpop boy wearing schoolboy clothes.  He sat between Seungmin and Chohui on the couch and he burst out laughing at something Chohui said.  Unsurprisingly, Chohui flirted shamelessly with him, tossing her hair over her shoulder and fluttering her eyelashes.  Eunbyeol couldn’t tell if he was laughing with her or at her, but Chohui laughed a moment later and her heart relaxed.  

Chohui gently put her hand on Felix’s knee and leaned in to whisper in his ear.  He leaned into her and tilted his head to listen to what she had to say.  For a moment, Felix turned just right to meet Eunbyeol’s eyes.  Something flickered in his gaze and Eunbyeol turned away quickly before she could spend time analyzing it.  Whatever simmered in his gaze sent a pulse of warmth through her body and she cursed under her breath.   

Eunbyeol grabbed her phone, hoping that something on it would be infinitely more interesting than anything or anyone else in the room.  Her parents sent her a few of the pictures from after the event, so she shared them in the group chat with the other girls.  Eunbyeol flipped through a few pictures, swiping quickly past the pictures that had both she and Felix in the frame, and even a few where she was standing next to him.  The school and everyone’s parents insisted on taking pictures of both winning groups together.  Her parents were included in that, snapping a few dozen pictures from as many angles as possible between the two of them.  A handful of pictures had Jiho and Jisung standing next to one another with their arms pressed together.  They smiled brightly into the camera and Eunbyeol decided that maybe a few pictures with Felix in the frame were worth it.  

“Okay, okay!”  Ah Joong spoke above the noise suddenly, standing up and gesturing for the others to quiet down.  “I think that it’s only right that we play a game to commemorate the first time our respective groups are hanging out!  I have a feeling this will not be the last time we are all gathered together like this, so I think we need to play something that will help us get to know each other.”

“God, not an icebreaker.”  Seungmin groaned, falling into the couch.  “I’ve always been bad at those.”

“Yes, an ice breaker!”  Ah Joong insisted and the others groaned.  “But with alcohol, obviously.  Will you help me, Seungmin-ah?”

“Depends... which ice breaker?”

“Two truths and a lie, obviously.  It’s the only decent one.”  

“Fine.”  Seungmin sighed, getting up off the couch to follow Ah Joong.

“You guys better be thinking of your lies!”  Ah Joong chided as she dragged Seungmin away. 

The others groaned at the entire idea, but Eunbyeol couldn’t wait for the alcohol to reappear.  The more pizza she ate, the more her buzz wore off.  She had no desire to be sober.  Especially tonight of all nights.  Something Chohui whispered to him made Felix laugh brightly and every muscle in Eunbyeol’s body tensed.  His full laugh filled the room and she rolled her eyes, ignoring the incessant urge within her that made her want to look at him.  

“So, how do we do this?”  Jeongin spoke up.  “I mean, what’s the drinking aspect?”

“We’ll walk you through how to drink, don’t worry.”  Jisung assured their youngest friend.  

“He meant the rules, idiot.”  Felix spoke up. 

“It’s pretty simple.  Whoever guesses the lie correctly doesn’t drink, and whoever guesses wrong takes a shot.”  Minjeong explained.  “Since we don’t know each other that well, I anticipate that we’ll get a little tipsy off this game.”

“What if we’re a bad liar?  Can’t we write them down or something?”  Jeongin pulled his lower lip between his teeth. 

“Just think of them beforehand.  You’ll be fine, I’m sure!”

“I can’t remember anything interesting that I’ve ever done in my life!”

“It doesn’t have to be intricate.  I’ll show you when it's my turn, okay?”  Minjeong put a reassuring hand on Jeongin’s knee. 

Eunbyeol sighed with relief when Ah Joong and Seungmin reappeared with the bottles of soju and a handful of shot glasses.  After a quick count, Eunbyeol realized that they would have to share.  There weren’t enough glasses for all ten people.  As long as she shared it with one of the girls, she wasn’t worried.  Ah Joong and Seungmin distributed the alcohol and glasses evenly across the table, exchanging empty pizza boxes for bottles.  Eunbyeol reached for the bottle she’d opened earlier. 

“Okay, I assume that we’re all clear on the rules right?”  Ah Joong addressed the group but didn’t wait for an answer.  “Great.  Because this entire thing is their fault, Seungmin and I agreed that Jiho or Jisung needs to go first.”

“Fine, fine.”  Jisung rolled his eyes.  “I’ll go but only because I have mine already.  Okay, let’s see... I liked Jiho first, my family went completely vegan for two years, and I prefer my cereal dry.” 

“I have a hard time imagining you as a vegan.”  Jeongin ventured.  

“Oh come on, Jiho liked him for so long though!  There’s no way he liked her first.”  Chohui challenged.  

“I don’t think you ever went vegan.”  Eunbyeol interjected.  “We’ve had the same lunch hour almost every time we’ve gone to the same school.”

The kids gave their verdicts and one third of them cheered when Jisung announced that he’d never gone vegan.  Gayoung went next, but her lie ended up being too obvious.  Minjeong gave a simple one on purpose for Jeongin’s sake and Gayoung easily guessed it right.  Jeongin’s had the group divided solidly half an half between either the fact that he’d never been kissed or that he’d never tried jello even once in his life.  Eunbyeol, having guessed wrong, swallowed a burning shot of peach soju when Jeongin finally revealed that just the idea of jello made him nauseous.  Then, all eyes turned to Eunbyeol and her brain all but shut down.  She’d been thinking for several minutes but she had no idea if she could fool the others.  

“Okay... um... I started dancing the first year I came back from Australia. I'm one of ten cousins, and I visited the Blue House and met the president one Christmas.”  Eunbyeol tried, keeping her eyes trained on her bottle of alcohol to try and keep her face as even as possible.  

When she finished speaking, she stole a glance around the room.  Minjeong, Gayoung and Jeongin immediately began discussing the options amongst themselves.  Ah Joong and Seungmin stared at her, waiting for Eunbyeol’s face to give something away.  Jisung asked Jiho the right answer but she only shrugged.  Chohui watched Eunbyeol with great intensity, but she gave nothing up.  

“We think you’ve never met the president.”  Jeongin spoke above the murmur.  Gayoung and Minjeong backed it up.

“I think I would know if you had ten cousins.”  Jiho’s confident answer had others agreeing with her quickly. 

“You took your first dance class in Australia.”  Felix met Eunbyeol’s gaze, a slight smirk playing on his lips.  He spoke coolly, with no hesitation or second guessing.  Eunbyeol stared at him for a few long moments, searching his face but finding nothing to give him away.  

“I...”  Eunbyeol started.  “How did you...?”

The others all groaned, reaching for the nearest bottle of soju to take a shot.  Only Felix sat still.  He watched Eunbyeol with an easy smile, giving nothing away.  All those years ago, Eunbyeol took her first dance class at eight years old.  She took ballet through an art school and she went two or three times a week after class.  Her friends were vaguely aware of her activities, especially as she advanced through the classes and experimented with other styles.  As far as Eunbyeol knew, Felix knew nothing about her or her after school activities.  She never danced at school and he never showed up to a single dance recital.

Eunbyeol wanted to ask Felix how he knew, but Chohui already began rambling off her list of truths and lies.  Eunbyeol couldn’t really listen to Chohui and made a random guess that caused her to have to drink.  Instead, she turned her attention to pretending to read the soju bottle.  Eunbyeol didn’t particularly like that Felix knew that about her.  She figured there had to be a chance that it was a guess.  He had a 33% chance of getting it right after all, so perhaps she shouldn’t have been surprised.  However, the sureness in his eyes made her doubt herself.  Eunbyeol’s consciousness was roughly brought back into the real world by Felix’s voice vibrating down her spine. 

“Alright, so...  I can name all the members of Twice in age order, I’m ambidextrous, and I can do a backflip with no help.”  

“Alright, well, I know that the Twice thing is true.”  Jisung declared.  “Felix just bought like three copies of their last album.”

“You’re a Twice fan?”  Chohui blinked in surprise at the boy sitting next to her.  “I had no idea.  I went to their concert last month!  Did you go?”

“What do you take me for?”  Felix scoffed.  “Of course I was there.  Okay, so maybe that was a bad truth.”

“No, no, you just narrowed it down for us!”  Jisung grinned.  “In that case, I don’t think you can do a backflip.  I know you did Taekwondo for a long time, but unassisted backflips are way too hard.”

“Just because you can’t do a backflip doesn’t mean he’s incapable of it.”  Jiho lightly smacked Jisung’s arm.  “I think he can do a backflip.”

“I think you’re ambidextrous.”  Eunbyeol decided.  She remembered how firm Felix’s chest had been under her fingers.  When he held her close on the stairs, she had a feeling that he worked out with the intention of keeping his muscles rock hard.  He could probably do a backflip.  She just wanted another drink.  The others all cast their votes. 

“Aw, sweetheart, I thought you knew me better than that.”  Felix cooed and Eunbyeol poured herself another shot.  Why isn’t the alcohol kicking in?  “I can do a backflip.”

“No shit, really?”  Chohui exclaimed.  “Come on, you have to show us.”

“I’m not sure if there’s enough room.”  Felix glanced around the apartment.  While the living room was spacious enough, there were too many nice vases or other decorations around that he didn’t want to destroy my accident.

“You have to prove to us that it’s the truth, though!”  Jisung encouraged him.  

“Can’t I just try and write something with both hands to show you that I’m just right handed?”

“Fuck no!”  Seungmin shoved Felix, encouraging him to get up off the couch.  “You have to show us.  Plus, I’m next and I need a few more minutes to think.”

“I don’t like you sometimes.  Jisung, will you spot me?” 

Felix heaved himself off the couch, raising his arms above his head to stretch.  Jisung also stood and together they made their way into the open space between the living room and the kitchen.  Jisung worked on clearing the space while Felix prepped.  After a minute or so, Felix stood in the center of the space with Jisung at his side.  Felix stretched his legs a little before squatting in preparation.  Everyone watched as he placed his feet shoulder width apart and held his hands out in front of him.  Eunbyeol held her breath, leaning forward to look.  

Felix sucked in a large breath, bent his knees, and leapt.  Everyone gasped in surprise as Felix effortlessly threw himself backwards.  His feet went over his head before he landed on his toes.  His momentum kept him flying back until he landed firmly on his butt.  He cried out from the pain shooting up his tailbone, but the other kids were too busy cheering to hear him.  Eunbyeol blinked in surprise, not wanting her face to show that he thoroughly impressed her.  

“I’m never doing that without a mat ever again.”  Felix groaned, slowly rising to his feet and limping back over to the couch with Jisung in tow.

“Do you need some ice?  I think I have some.”  Ah Joong offered.  

“Thanks, but I’ll be okay.  I don’t need a giant wet patch on my pants.”  Felix reclaimed his spot on the couch between Chohui and Seungmin while Jisung sank down next to Jiho once more. 

“Alright, consider it proven!”  Chohui patted Felix’s knee reassuringly.  Eunbyeol wondered if she imagined him pulling slightly away from her. 

“My tailbone hurts so bad.”  Felix shifted uncomfortably on the couch.  “Maybe we should have gone outside.”

“Alright, my turn.  I finally thought of one.”  Seungmin interjected, sitting forward on the couch to take center stage.  “I’ve never been to the beach, I write in a diary every day, and I auditioned for an entertainment company last year.”  

“Now that’s one hell of a roller coaster.  But I think you’ve definitely been to the beach.”  Ah Joong insisted.  

The others took their guesses and Eunbyeol chose her answer correctly.  The alcohol from previous shots pooled in her stomach and the warmth finally began to pulse through her.  A pleasant dizziness washed over Eunbyeol and she sighed happily.  She phased out slightly, listening to the chatter of the other kids as they talked about Seungmin’s lie.  She had to admit that the fact that she’d eaten helped her buzz feel a little better.  With her stomach full, the drunkenness didn’t hit her like a train and instead crept up on her slowly like the tide.  Eunbyeol wanted to bask in it a little more, but Ah Joong’s turn finally came around and she declared so loudly.  

Almost instinctively, Eunbyeol glanced over at Felix to gauge his reaction only to find him already looking at her.  He smiled slightly as he watched her, but his face fell and he averted his gaze with a deliberate cough the moment she looked towards him.  Without needing a wrong answer, Felix poured a shot and tossed it back.  Eunbyeol’s eyes traced the curve of his lips, the sharpness of his jaw and the movement of his neck as he swallowed.  Eunbyeol forced herself to turn her attention back to Ah Joong.  She needed to remember not to find Felix attractive.  She hated him, after all.  Right?

“Okay, all of you are boring.  I want to know the dirty shit.”  Ah Joong determined.  “So, here are mine.  I’ve kissed fifteen different guys in our grade, Jinyoung sunbae and I got a little handsy in the nurse's office on Sports Day a few weeks ago, and I sometimes fantasize about my neighbor across the street.” 

“Oh, wow.”  Seungmin blinked in surprise at his options.  “I... don’t think I have anything as intense as that.  Christ, you did go to the nurse’s office on game day.  I don’t think you’ve kissed fifteen guys have you?”

Eunbyeol grinned at the twinge of jealousy she sensed in Seungmin’s words.  She hadn’t noticed it when they first sat down, but Ah Joong and Seungmin’s knees brushed every so often.  Ah Joong’s body faced him completely as she spoke and Seungmin mirrored her.   Even if they looked elsewhere and not at each other directly, all the tell tale signs were there.  As Eunbyeol reached across the table for another slice of pizza, she glanced instinctively towards Felix once more, who met her eyes with a knowing smile.  Felix knew, too, she realized.  Despite the unwelcome warm feeling in the pit of her stomach, she didn’t mind the smile they shared over the obliviousness of their friends.  Eunbyeol looked away before she could think about it too much. 

After hearing all the votes, Ah Joong announced loudly that the lie was getting with Jinyoung in the nurse’s office, which Eunbyeol knew somehow anyway.  Despite how much Ah Joong wanted to be secretive about her truths, nearly every time she kissed a new boy she would announce it to the girls at lunch.  For Seungmin’s sake, Eunbyeol couldn’t tell which truth was worse.  However, she had a feeling that it wouldn’t affect the trajectory of their relationship.  

Jiho and Jisung’s turns were vanilla, both of them essentially announcing that they hadn’t done anything overly sexual yet.  Eunbyeol gasped when Jiho’s lie ended up being “we slept together before the show” and not “we haven’t slept together yet.”  Eunbyeol thought for sure that after being together for so long that they would get around to it.  On the other hand, they did all go to high school so perhaps they weren’t quite ready yet.  Eunbyeol hadn’t been sure if she was ready, but after hearing Younghyun moan while they were kissing changed her mind.  Of course, Felix’s voice sometimes made her body warm in all the right ways.

As her turn crept closer, Eunbyeol racked her brain for something to say.  How much could she give away to these people?  She didn’t have too many dirty little secrets, aside from her kiss with Felix and her night with Younghyun.    But she couldn’t possibly admit to any of those things.  Not that she cared, but she remembered that she and Felix never talked about what happened on the stairs.  Not once did they have a conversation or a mutual understanding over what happened.  She wondered if he thought about it as much as she did.  Eunbyeol wondered if he’d done it on purpose to confuse her.  The idea made her nostrils flare, but before she could think about it anymore Jeongin turned to her. 

“Your turn!”  He exclaimed brightly, despite his ears turning a deep red after admitting to his truths.  Eunbyeol had never heard of that kink before and she wondered where he found the courage to admit such a thing. 

“Oh... shit... um...”  Eunbyeol spoke slowly, putting off revealing anything like this.  

“Out with it!”  Jiho urged. 

“Fuck, okay.  So, Younghyun was my first kiss, or I like lip-biting while kissing, or... I’m not a virgin anymore.”  Eunbyeol chose her words deliberately, hoping that nothing would incriminate her.  She didn’t want to tell everyone who claimed her first kiss.

“Holy shit, you’re fucking kidding me!”  Chohui exclaimed.  “All of those things could be true, what the fuck.”

Felix’s jaw tensed.  As he listened to her options, he realized that he knew the answer once again.  Despite the alcohol warming him up from the inside, his blood ran cold when he realized the implications of her words.  The thought of her under someone else and making those fucking noises he could only imagine at night made him want to hit something.  Suddenly the conversation between Younghyun and Jaehyung made sense and he dreaded the idea.  He wanted to hold her and hug her and touch her, and he wanted to be the only one.  He stole a glance at her but she couldn’t look away from the soju glass she shared with Chohui.

“Okay, well, I think we can safely assume that Younghyun was your first kiss, right?  I remember when you came to the restaurant after he confessed to you a couple months ago.  Your face was beet red.”  Ah Joong reasoned.  

“Oh, yeah, good point.”  Gayoung chimed in.  “So, that leaves lip-biting and being a virgin?  I mean, I don’t think you and Younghyun have had the time, have you?”

“I dunno, lip-biting is pretty great, though.  How could she not like it?  So... the lie is that you’re not a virgin anymore?”  

“Yeah, that makes the most sense.”  Jiho agreed and the others chimed in. 

“Felix, what do you think?”  Chohui turned to the boy in question, fluttering her eyelashes at him innocently.  

Eunbyeol glanced at him but he stared intently at a spot on the couch.  His face flushed a dark red.  He reached for the shot glass he shared with Seungmin and preemptively poured himself a drink.  Felix mumbled something about agreeing with the others and tipped his head back to swallow the alcohol.  Chohui raised an eyebrow, but didn’t ask questions.

“Um.  I’m actually not a virgin anymore.”  Eunbyeol admitted carefully and all of the girls let out simultaneous shrieks of shock and excitement.  Eunbyeol winced at the loud noise, but smiled in spite of herself as Chohui dove off the couch to grab her hands.  Felix swallowed his drink without wincing.

“When?  With who?  I mean, Younghyun, right?”

“Yes, with Younghyun.  Last weekend.”

“Last weekend?”  Jiho exclaimed.  “Why the hell didn’t you say anything?”

“I dunno, I’m still kind of taking it all in I guess.”  

“Okay, okay, was he your first kiss, too?”  Ah Joong reminded the girls about the game.  Everyone turned to Eunbyeol, waiting for her answer.  Felix poured himself another shot. 

“No.  He was not my first kiss, that was a lie.”

“Wow, and you haven’t told me any of this?”  Jiho shook her head.  “I mean, I know I’m not one to talk, but seriously?”

“I dunno, I didn’t want to advertise my sex life with the talent show right around the corner.  Not that I have much of one.  I’ve only done it once.”  

“Okay, then who the fuck was your first kiss?  When was it?”  

“It was a while ago, don’t worry about it.”  Eunbyeol waved it off.  “We can talk more later.  Chohui-yah, I think it’s your turn.”

Those who guessed wrong poured themselves a shot while they waited for Chohui to share her options.  Eunbyeol avoided eye contact with anyone, choosing to pretend to look at something interesting on her phone for a few minutes while Chohui spoke.  Eunbyeol unfortunately knew which was the lie, so she didn’t get a drink.  For the life of her she couldn’t tell why she wasn’t more drunk but she didn’t have it in her to complain.  She peered closer at the soju bottle, looking for any evidence that it had been watered down.  It wouldn’t surprise her. 

Eunbyeol half-heartedly gave her answer as she scrolled through her phone, looking for literally anything more exciting than the game.  The others argued over Chohui’s lie, unable to tell between two particularly raunchy ones.  “I lost my virginity in the classroom” or “My first love gave me an STD”.  Eunbyeol knew for a fact that Chohui lost it in the back of her first boyfriend’s car last summer.  She glanced over her phone at Felix, risking a glance at him when he let out a particularly bright laugh.  Something Jeongin said made his head fly back and his eyes crinkle.  Her eyebrows furrowed, turning back to her phone in order to avoid looking at his mouth.  After everything that happened in the last several hours, not to mention over the course of the entire semester, Eunbyeol couldn’t afford to get distracted by him.  

“Alright, alright.  I don’t know about you guys, but I’m just dying to know what dirty little secrets Felix has buried in there.”  Chohui turned to face Felix, her eyes bright with wonderment.  

“Oh, I don’t have much.”  Felix assured her, holding his hands up as if to create a barrier between them.  

“Come on, really?  Surely you’ve been around the block a few times.”  

“Not... as much as you think.  Anyway, um... I don’t know how explicit you want me to get, but I don’t have much.  Let’s see.  I... have only kissed one person since I got to Korea...”  As Felix spoke, every muscle in Eunbyeol’s body tensed.  “I’m a virgin, and... I’m not wearing underwear.”

Felix winced at his own words, gulping down the lump in his throat.  Everyone erupted into conversation the moment he finished.  Felix’s friends all stared at each other with slack jaws and eyes the size of dinner plates.  The girls gossiped amongst themselves, suddenly having an insight into Felix’s head for the very time since he arrived at the school.  Due to Eunbyeol’s strong feelings about him, the others hadn’t followed the gossip surrounding the new boy.  To get this little tidbit would be more than they’d heard in weeks. 

Eunbyeol swallowed thickly, wondering if she had some kind of unique insight into one of his truths.  She wasn’t sure she wanted to know the other truth.  Both options were way more than she ever wanted to know about him.  In fact, she already knew too much.  

“Okay, who in the hell have you kissed?  There are so many girls in this school who are fucking dumb for you, surely it was one of them.”  Ah Joong reasoned.  “But also?  Only one?  If that’s your lie then surely you’ve kissed dozens of girls.”

“Bro, if it’s not the last one, how the hell did you fucking dance?”  Jisung exclaimed.  “Like, I tried dancing without underwear once and the chafing hurt so bad I couldn’t walk straight for a week.  I have so many questions, bro.”

“I’m not at liberty to tell you.”  Felix wiggled his eyebrows suggestively and Eunbyeol rolled her eyes.  

“Alright, so that one has to be a lie, right?  You are wearing some?  If that is the lie, I still have so many questions about the others.  You certainly haven’t told me about kissing anyone and I like to think that I’d be the first to know.”  

“Clearly, I’m not one to advertise all this stuff.”  

“If you’re not a virgin, I want to know the entire story.”  Seungmin declared.  “At this point I think I’ll be a virgin all through college, so I need to live vicariously through someone.”

“I think no matter what, the first time is always the most awkward.”  Chohui offered.  “Even if you like each other, sex is brand new territory, you know?”

“Okay, okay.  What do we think Felix’s lie is?”  Ah Joong recentered the conversation before it strayed too far off track.  “Personally, I think the lie is that he’s a virgin.  There’s no way.”

“I think it’s the last one.  At least, I hope it’s the last one.  For his own sake.”  Jisung insisted. 

“I agree with Ah Joong.  Eunbyeol-ah, what do you think?”  Chohui turned to her.  

“I think it’s...”  Eunbyeol trailed off and purposefully looked anywhere other than Felix to give her answer.  “The first one.  He’s surely kissed more than just one person, right?”

“Well, share with the class.”  Chohui gestured to the group.  

The rest of the kids all made their choices and Felix listened to each one.  He gave nothing away.  Felix had an easy smile plastered on his stupidly handsome face and Eunbyeol had to look away to keep from punching him again.  Today, however, he hadn’t done anything to provoke her.  At least, he hadn’t done anything deliberately.  For some reason, it took a lot of physical effort to keep herself from looking at him over the course of the night.  Since his performance, a steady warmth tingled through her body and she didn’t like it one tiny bit.  Eunbyeol wished she could boil the feeling down to simply missing Younghyun’s touch, but something about the dull pulses that throbbed through her made her think she didn’t miss him as much as she thought.  

Felix allowed a moment of suspense, perched on the edge of the couch with his hands up to silence the chattering of the kids.  He glanced around the circle and quirked a single eyebrow up as if to challenge the thoughts of the other kids.  Everyone kept their original guess, but Eunbyeol panicked.  Eunbyeol hoped she chose right.  She couldn’t be the only person he’s kissed all year?  She thought he ate up the attention from the other girls.  However, she knew suddenly that she wasn’t imagining him scooting back every time Chohui made an advance towards him.  

“I... am not a virgin.”  Felix announced boldly.  The other kids cried out either in disappointment or excitement.  Eunbyeol silently swallowed her shot.  “I had a girlfriend before I transferred and we did it maybe once or twice?”   

“I demand to know who the lucky girl is!  Who have you kissed since you’ve been here!”  Ah Joong jumped to her feet.  “Does that mean you like someone?”

“Look, I intend on protecting her identity.”  Felix insisted, calling over the noise from the others.  Eunbyeol released a silent sigh of relief.  She poured another shot.  The alcohol did nothing to suppress the pressure building within her.

“Jesus, man.  How the fuck are you still walking straight if you’re not wearing underwear, you psychopath!”  Seungmin lightly punched Felix’s shoulder, who reacted dramatically, throwing himself back against the couch as if he’d been knocked out cold. “Wait, you were wearing some this morning!  What happened?”

“I found a huge hole in them after our performance.  They were barely worth wearing.”  Felix waved the thought away. 

“Who’s the girl you kissed?”  Chohui urged, scooting slightly close to Felix.  He instantly slid off the couch to sit on the floor directly in front of the coffee table. 

“Come on, it’s none of your business.”  Ah Joong insisted, shaking her head in response.  

Felix made cautious eye contact with Eunbyeol as he lowered to her level.  Her eyes followed the motion and her muscles tensed.  Their proximity disappeared ever so slightly.  He seemed to sense it, too, as he shifted carefully to make himself comfortable.  Felix angled his body carefully, as to not put a single limb into Eunbyeol’s invisible bubble.  He couldn’t seem to make eye contact with her either. 

Seungmin and Ah Joong’s turns passed by with nothing particularly interesting being revealed between the two of them.  Eunbyeol wondered if they were trying to save face in front of the other, which wasn’t particularly surprising at this point.  Thankfully, Jiho had something properly interesting to say.

“I think two rounds is enough, don’t you think?”  She yawned, raising her arms above her head.  “Drinking makes me so tired so if we don’t do something interesting soon then I’ll fall asleep right here.”

“I’ll think of something!”  Ah Joong announced, but the glint in her eye made Eunbyeol think she had an idea already.  

“Ah, I hope I can say this now without being murdered in cold blood, but I did really like your performance.”  Jiho glanced around the circle to address the boys.  “It was so powerful!  How did you guys choose the song?”

“It was mostly Felix’s idea.”  Seungmin shrugged.  “He showed us his voice and we figured that we had to find a song to showcase it properly.”

“I’d say you found one.”  Chohui laughed, innocently reaching down to place her hand on Felix’s shoulder.  Felix shifted his shoulders under her touch, maneuvering out of her touch to lean more against Seungmin’s legs. 

“We definitely did.  Felix knocked the fucking house down!”  Jisung exclaimed.  “I mean, we obviously all had something to do with it.”

“Jagiya, you did so well and I’m so proud of you!  You’re so talented.”  Jiho praised her boyfriend. 

“Are you kidding, you girls did amazing!  Jagi, you look so sexy in this outfit and you’re such an amazing dancer.”

“Get a room.”  Seungmin gagged at their words.  

“You don’t think we did a good job?”  Ah Joong ventured boldly.

“I didn’t say that!”

“Felix, what did you think?”  Jisung asked pointedly, smirking at his friend.  “You didn’t stay too long after their performance was over.”

Felix’s muscles tensed immediately.  He whipped his head around to look at Jisung, who smiled knowingly.  Felix shot his friend a warning glance, but he had a feeling that he wouldn’t be hearing the end of it.  Chohui’s face dropped at the mention of Felix leaving after their performance, though the others in the group ignored her disappointment.  In a moment of panic, Felix knew there was only one route he could take that wouldn’t incriminate him.  How could he possibly tell Cha Eunbyeol what he actually thought about her dancing?  His pulse quickened as he spoke, as if he wasn’t on edge just from being in the same room as her.

“It was alright.  Your technique was lacking in some parts.”  He shrugged nonchalantly, wincing under the ice-cold glare he received from Eunbyeol.

“Oh really?”  She cocked her head to the side and all the girls gave her a warning glare.  “Are you really going to say that after your voice cracked in the second verse?”

“Oh shit.”  Jiho muttered under her breath.

“Come on.  As if you didn’t almost trip during the intro?  You thought I wouldn’t notice that?”  Felix scoffed.  

“How would you even know if I tripped during the intro?  I choreographed the stupid thing.  You, on the other hand, definitely weren’t on time for the last chorus so I don’t know who you think you’re fooling.”  Eunbyeol rolled her eyes, reaching for a drink of soju but Chohui pulled their shared shot glass away from her. 

“You’ve had enough.”  

“Please, I’m barely getting drunk off this shit.”  Eunbyeol grabbed it back and poured a shot.  Felix could only shake his head.

“Okay!”  Ah Joong’s full voice cut through the tension as she made a dive for the TV remote.  “Why don’t we put on a random play and see if we can’t dance out some of this alcohol and get the blood pumping.  We still have a couple of unopened bottles and I don’t know about you, but I’m fucking thirsty.”

“It really doesn’t take much to set you off, huh?”  Chohui muttered to Eunbyeol, finally shifting her attention away from Felix. 

“I’m not exactly in the mood to take criticism from him.”  Eunbyeol rolled her eyes.  

“Girl, just ignore him and try to relax.  I know this has been really stressful for you so let’s just dance and think about that instead.”  Chohui reached for Eunbyeol’s shoulders to rub reassuringly.

“I aspire to.” 

“How competitive are we feeling?”  The smile on Ah Joong’s face worried Eunbyeol.

“I’m always feeling competitive.”  Seungmin assured her.

“Then why don’t we see who knows the most dances between our two groups?”

“I don’t know, do you think we know enough dances for that?”   

“Why don’t you put on that random play and find out.”  Jeongin challenged suddenly and Ah Joong blinked in surprise. 

“If it makes you feel better, I’ll stay out of it and keep score?  I think I know more than all of you combined.”  Ah Joong offered with an innocent smile.  

“Oh, how gracious of you.”  Jiho laughed.  “Just press play.”

Eunbyeol perked up slightly when she heard a familiar song playing through the speakers once Ah Joong finally pressed play.  Jeongin also sat up straighter and they made eye contact as they both jumped to their feet.  The others in the circle cheered as Eunbyeol and Jeongin navigated to the open space between the coffee table and the mounted TV to dance.  Eunbyeol wanted to ask where Jeongin learned this Red Velvet song, but she supposed that everyone was entitled to some secrets.  She and Jeongin shared a smile as they danced together and Eunbyeol remembered that she really only had something against Felix.  Jeongin did nothing wrong.  His innocent boyish face was way too cute to hate in the first place anyway. 

Despite the newfound competition between the groups, Eunbyeol for some reason sensed a certain camaraderie as she and Jeongin danced to the next several songs together.  As she danced, she sensed a pair of eyes on her.  Eunbyeol wanted to play it off as maybe one of her friends or Jisung, who held his spot next to Jiho as he watched the others dance.  However, Jisung leapt to his feet when he recognized the dance to an Astro song and Eunbyeol realized it was not his gaze she sensed.  

Eunbyeol hesitated to look at Felix, but something lured her to him like a moth to the flame.  She supposed that she should have been surprised to find him watching her already, but something about everything that led up to this evening made the observation the least shocking thing about the evening.  Felix’s ears turned pink when they met eyes, which Eunbyeol almost found cute if it wasn’t for the fact that he’d been nothing less than infuriating for the last several hours.  He sat on the floor trapped between Seungmin and Chohui, neither of whom looked like they had any intention of moving.  Eunbyeol knew for a fact that Chohui knew at least half of the songs in this random play but she guessed that she didn’t want to give up her spot next to Felix.  As if anyone else would want to sit next to him.  

Rather than pay attention to Chohui, arguably one of the sexist girls in their grade, Felix could only see Eunbyeol.  He tried to pay attention to his friends when they went to the front of the room to dance and he even pulled off a couple of cheers.  He knew a handful of the songs that played, but not enough to actually get up and dance with the others.  He dreaded the idea of having to squeeze past either Chohui or go the long way around the other way to stand so he waited until a good song came on. 

Eventually, Felix could no longer sit on the floor.  He didn’t know too many songs in the random play, but a good song took him by surprise and he raced to his feet and stepped over Chohui to join the others.  His legs were stiff from sitting on the floor for so long, but the dancing quickly loosened him up.  The proximity between him and Eunbyeol all but vanished and he couldn’t help but to sense their closeness.  She gave him a wide berth, deliberately moving to the other side of the open space to put as much room between them as possible.  He hated being aware of her. 

As the random play progressed, most of the songs alternated between who knew them.  When Eunbyeol didn’t know a dance, she stood off to the side and watched those who did know.  When Felix didn’t know one, he stood off to the side and watched her.  Sure, she looked dangerously sexy in her outfit and he had a feeling that the mental image of her swaying her hips to the music would plague his thoughts for a while.  

However, right now Felix could see right past that.  She cheered on her friends with a bright smile.  Her eyes seemed to shine in the bright lighting in the apartment.  Eunbyeol cheered when her friends did well and she squealed with joy when a song she knew played.  She laughed as Jeongin confidently danced to a Sistar song, but ultimately joined him enthusiastically.  Eunbyeol talked and laughed with the others and Felix wondered what they talked about.  He wished she would talk and laugh with him like that.  Felix’s heart pounded in his chest when she tossed her head back and laughed at something Minjeong whispered to her.  

Eunbyeol looked... happy like this.  Surrounded by her friends and dancing without a care in the world.  Felix sighed as he watched her dance to whatever song came next.  He wondered if he would ever be the cause of her smile or her happiness.  He wondered if she could ever see him as something more than just the asshole who ruined her life.  At this rate, Felix doubted she would ever look at him the way she did on the stairs ever again.  For almost the first time since they’d met all those years ago, Eunbyeol had looked at him like there was nowhere else she would rather be.  

As he watched her now, dancing with her friends and smiling with her cheeks tinted a bright red from the alcohol, Felix realized with a start that he didn’t want to be anywhere else.

Redo of "I guess I'm doing a thing lol"

so uh I've been addicted to Welcome Home since the beginning of the year(2023)...and I'm normally the type of fan that just wanders around and gives my silent support with the odd comment left here and there....but seeing all the Welcome Home AUs I've got inspired to make my own...specifically by the who made the CreaturePirate AU...(don't let them see this pls I-I-I don't think I could function if that happened lmao XD)

....I haven't made any art for it yet but Ive got lots of notes so I'm just going to dump it all here so I've got it written down some where lol...keep reading on if you like or just keep drifting doesn't matter much to me...tho I hope you enjoy my info dumping :D

OK so to start I didn't have a proper name for this AU when I first wrote this but now I do!..it's going to be called Lost Media AU but for tagging purposes it will be WH Lost Media AU! Now onto the actual info :P

So the main thing that's different right off the bat is that instead of aimed at kids and being educational, this Welcome Home is aimed mostly for adults, young adults and maybe older teenagers but certainly not for kids [tho this doesn't stop parents from letting their kids watch it -_-]

The show leans into some heavy themes though horror seems to be its main theme with the goal of unsettling the viewers with reminders of advice given when they were kids. It started airing in 1949 and has had two hiatuses since then, one around 1957 lasting a year and the second one being 1970 lasting only a week.

Since their first hiatus in 1957 their broadcasting company has been changed but there isn't any information on the current company in charge of broadcasting the show, not even the location of the broadcasting studio could be found. The show had also went from being a mainly English broadcasted show to a multilingual one, being shown in whatever language was used most in the country the show was played in.

The Welcome Home! show was known for its lovable and eccentric cast of characters but also for its odd scheduling and bumpers. It played throughout the day and late into the night with the only interruptions being the 1-2 hour long bumpers. Depending on the time the viewer watched the show you'd get a different variant of the show. For example...

2 - 5am = horrifying visuals, sounds and a generally haunted feeling, odd creatures were mostly noted along with a few...noteworthy changes to the seemingly friendly neighborhood. [has caused many deaths tho these were wrote off as natural causes]

5 - 7am = the first of three bumpers. the mildest of them, its a bit weird and surreal as if you took way too many psychedelics at one time. Viewers might think they hear something in their home but don't pay much attention. [anyone whose seen this bumper can't remember what they saw]

7am - 9pm = the usual TV show that most people have seen, with episodes ranging from lighthearted adventures to horror/slasher plot lines. Nothing out of the ordinary here besides the odd detail or two being oddly colored or misplaced. [nothing noteworthy here besides the characters sometimes going a bit off script]

9 - 10pm = second bumper. a bit more intense than the first but again not the worst. Massive drug feel to everything as if you are on the way to having a very bad trip. Everything begins to bleed together and become oddly colored while seeing the characters head inside their homes. Wally's house becomes the focus with a sudden wide shot of the neighborhood. [has traumatized kids and caused many to faint once the bumper is done, an odd eye mark showing up on the nap of the neck barely noticeable anyone including the viewer]

10pm - 1am = the once happy and inviting neighborhood becomes very much unwelcoming, becoming an odd liminal space of sorts with distorted voices drifting in and out repeatedly. The camera is fixed on Home with things moving at the edges of the camera but that's all at least on the surface [has driven people to insanity and paranoia]

1 - 2am = the last bumper...very intense and the feeling of being watched comes to the forefront and quickly becomes overwhelming the mark given on the second bumper burns intensely and the viewer can feel themselves stiffen up leaning more towards the TV screen. [while somewhere in the viewer's home faint chanting can be heard]

A big coincident that occurred started during its run in the 60s seemed to plague the show till now. A cult had revealed themselves to the masses though the name has been seemingly lost due to some meddling by someone. At the same time quite a few people [between 12 and 33] began to go missing with no traces as to what happened or where they may have gone. The only key thing tying them all together was that Welcome Home! was on in their residence when they went missing. The cases had gone cold after a few years but many speculate that the show and the cult had something to do with it.

wow that was quite a lot now that Ive written it out XD and that's only like the lore stuff Ive got sorted out atm haven't even gotten to the characters and such lol...maybe when I get home from work I'll get all that stuff written down and posted? idk XD we shall see I guess
