hey Mars! Can you do dark red by Steve lacy with Kenma? like they confessing to eachother and all? Thank you! (I'm sorry if it's not cleared enough)

dark red | mars & her music event

“i belong with you, and only you babyy”

— ft. kenma kozume & some cute confessions

AN: i love this song sooo much u have no idea, so i ofc loved writing this !! i had a lot of fun writing this so be prepared for a loooong read. hope u enjoyed & tysm for the ask <3

“something bad is 'bout to happen to me. i don't know what, but i feel it coming”

kenma was never one to be good at dealing with other peoples emotions, much less his own. yet he found himself often thinking, even caring, about you. it was an occurrence that was strange to him. he couldn’t understand why he felt this way, but he knew that he liked you more than anyone else.

“kenma, you realize you have a painfully obvious crush on y/n right?” his tall rooster headed said to him while pinching the bridge of his nose. dealing with kenma’s obliviousness to his crush on you had started stressin him out a lil too much.

“what? no i don’t?? she’s just my friend.” he would protest, not noticing how red the tips of his ears got whenever you were mentioned. but no matter how many times he tried denying it, kuroo was right, he did have a crush, the biggest, crush on you. yet you were oblivious to this as well

“i hink of her so much it drives me crazy. i just don't want her to leave me”

you had been friends with kenma for a while now, spending almost every day with him & his friends. but when you yourself developed feelings for him, you tried to ignore them, not wanting to ruin your friendship in case he doesn’t feel the same.

your relationship began to stray a little bit though. after finding out another girl confessed to him, you assumed he said yes, and began distancing yourself from him. not out of jealousy, you just wanted to be respectful, but also avoiding him was also the easiest way for you to stop the ache you felt in your heart over the boy you’ve been in love with.

kenma found himself missing you more than usual. where is she? why doesn’t she hangout with us that much anymore? was it something i did? he couldn’t handle not being with you daily. hell, he practically confessed his love to you to the girl who confessed to him.

“don’t you give me up, please don't give up. on me, i belong, with you, only you, babe”

when he saw you walking home after school alone, part of him was upset because usually he’s the one walking with you, but another part of him saw this as a perfect opportunity to try see why you’ve been avoiding him.

lost in your thoughts walking home, you’re startled when you hear someone call your name from afar. even more so when you realize that you recognize that name, your crush, kenma kozume.

“hey y/n wait up a sec” he calls after you sheepishly, while jogging over to meet you. “why don’t you walk with me after school anymore?” he asks slightly out of breath. steadying his breath and readjusting his jacket, he looks at you waiting for your response

at a loss for words at this awkward encounter you manage to say “well.. um, i just thiught you’d be walking with your girlfriend i guess” a look of confusion smeared on his face, he blinks a few times in disbelief of what you just said. “my what? who are you talking about?” now it’s your turn to be confused.

“that girl who confessed to you? kuroo told me about it & i figured you started dating her” the look of confusion on his face is now replaced with one of annoyance. palming his face and then rubbing his temple he retorts “oh my god im gonna kill him shit. wait is this why you’ve been avoiding me?” facing your embarrassment head on and looking at the ground, you decide you might as well tell the truth.

“yeah, i just didn’t wanna make things awkward by letting my feelings get in the way.” kenma definitely knows something’s up so he asks “what feelings..?” a slight blush creeping up on your face you confess. “i like you kenma, i’ve liked you forever probably. and i didn’t want to ruin our friendship with my own feelings” you notice a small smile form on kenma’s face, and next thing you know he’s pulling you towards him into a hug.

letting out a sigh, followed by a small laugh he confesses to you himself. “y/n, i don’t know how you never realized, but i’ve liked you the moment we met. kuroo will tell you how much i talk about you. and i even told that girl how i only have eyes for you after i rejected her.” a warm feeling fills your heart, and everything just felt so right. you know how quiet kenma can be, and how little he expresses himself, so this confession was just that more meaningful.

to reassure him & his feelings, you look at him with the biggest, genuine smile, squeezing him tightly in your hug. he places a chaste kiss on your head, then simply says, “so will you stop avoiding me now?” his heart is so full <3

BACK FROM STARSET, OH MY GODDDD THEY WERE SO FUCKING GOOD!!! Dustin was absolutely not kidding when he said they'd return bigger and better, holy fucking shit. This time they were in Academy 1 which is a lot bigger venue!

They had no support act, because most of the stage was taken up with this amazing, huge and elaborate series of spinning blades that projected holographic shit??? It was honestly beautiful and sooo intricate, and all the images were woven in with the music and the narrative videos in between which told the story of a guy escaping the whole New East/New West dystopia and it was all leading in to the setup for the new album which I'm taking to be HUMANITY GOING TO MARS??? HELLO!!!

I got terrible photos cos Academy 1 means no close up accessibility, so we were on a frankly not great balcony (the metal railing topping the barrier was literally directly in my line of sight so I had to sit real forward and up on my chair so now my thighs are KILLING ME but it was so fucking worth it) and very far away, but being high up was nice!

They absolutely killed it, played some songs I haven't seen live before INCLUDING all three new songs (and Waiting on the Sky to Change!!)!! My screams when they started up with Brave New World haha, I went absolutely mental. Songs like that make me a little sad and wistful tho, cos I wish I was down there in the pit moshing but now I have to be satisfied with chair moshing, which honestly gets... Very Vigorous lol, I get very uh. Bouncy XD

Anyway, I cannot recommend Starset enough to see live, their shows are always stellar and they're honestly getting better and better every tour!! Absolutely worth it if you get chance, we've seen them every UK visit since they started coming here and I feel like I'll want to continue seeing them for eternity tbh!!

mari mobamenco masterpost

unlike most of the masagoto conversations, a lot of these were not retranslated because i no longer have the original japanese, but i just wanted to compile them! i did find a couple things that i never translated that were sitting in a word document so those are new, but mostly they're just cleaned up to make them easier to understand and less clunky to read.

my next plan for translation stuff is to tackle the mini-dramas in yomecolle! i have some of the cards already translated in my tag, but there are a few things i skipped, and i'd like to put together a proper script for the cards where masayoshi and goto were specifically talking to each other. after that, i bought some magazines that i'd like to translate the blurbs from!

for now, enjoy mari+masayoshi and goto+mari having inane chats about nothing.

MARI+MASAYOSHI

Masayoshi: When you’re trying to persuade someone to do the right thing, you absolutely can’t give up! Mari: That’s sooo boooooring. Masayoshi: I’m sure everyone could understand each other if we just tried to communicate! Mari: Well, I’ll leave the talking to you!

Mari: Omawari-san wa inu ~ ♪ Masayoshi: What are you singing? Mari: "Inu no Policeman!" It's my new song. Masayoshi: It's… interesting… Mari: It's good, right?

Masayoshi: You're very cat-like. Mari: You think so? I guess I've worn cat ears in promos and things like that. Masayoshi: Now that I think about it, you were such a kitten when we first met! Mari: Are you trying to give me a compliment? (Another one that needs some explanation. Masayoshi says that Mari was 猫をかぶってた, which literally means "wearing a cat [costume, in the case of Masayoshi and Mari's first meeting]" but has the idiomatic meaning of something similar to "a wolf in sheep's clothing." Masayoshi accidentally (?) said that Mari was only pretending to be sweet, but he literally meant that she was dressed as a cat.)

Mari: I heard you refuse to use an umbrella. Masayoshi: Actually, there's a very profound reason for this… Mari: That's okay. I don't need to know. Masayoshi: If you're going to bring it up, please listen until the end.

Masayoshi: What are you doing? Mari: I’m preparing outfits for our police friend~ Masayoshi: Oh… Goto-san would look good in this one! Mari: Right?!

Masayoshi: Cats are pretty cute, huh? Mari: Oh, are you a cat lover? Masayoshi: No, I actually prefer dogs. Mari: Yeah, I can see that… you do seem like a big puppy. Masayoshi: D… do I really come off that way?

Masayoshi: What do you like to do in your free time? Mari: I like to cause a little trouble! Masayoshi: Can you really call yourself a hero with an attitude like that?! Mari: It was a joke! A jooooke!

Masayoshi: It's dangerous for girls like you to go out alone at night! Mari: Don't worry! I mean, I save YOU all the time. Masayoshi: Um, that's a different issue entirely. Mari: Anyway, let's make this city safe for everyone to go out at night! Masayoshi: Yes… you're right! Let's do our best!

Mari: I need some advice! Masayoshi: Yes? What is it? Mari: I don't know what kind of attack to debut next. A taser? Blunt force? Or maybe… an explosion would be best? Masayoshi: Um… I'd like to recommend something more gentle…

Mari: I've been in a great mood recently! Masayoshi: Me too! Mari: I wonder if it's because I got to see a certain officer the other day…? Masayoshi: I also saw Goto-san a few days ago!

Mar: I've been in a great mood recently! Masayoshi: Oh, really? Mari: Yeah, I kind of feel like… maybe I'm the most important person in the world? It's like I can do anything!

Masayoshi: Last night, I dreamt Goto-san made me curry. Mari: Huh?! Invite me next time! Masayoshi: But it was only a dream… Mari: Yeah, and I wanna have this dream too!

Mari: What type of person is that policeman interested in? Masayoshi: Goto-san? Um… His girlfriend, and people who email him a lot, I suppose… Mari: So I'll start by sending him 100 emails a day! Masayoshi: That'll just make him angry!

Masayoshi: I'll take care of things here! You go ahead! Mari: Huh? Isn't that what a sidekick would say? Masayoshi: No way! It's a hero's line! Mari: Then… I'll take care of things here. You go ahead, junior!

Mari: Do you have many friends? Masayoshi: No, not really. Mari: Is that so? Masayoshi: It's hard to find people to share my hobbies with. Mari: I hate to say it, but I know that feeling…

MARI+GOTO

Mari: I wanna eat your cooking. Goto: Anything in particular? Mari: Anything that you make is fine by me! Goto: Then I'll heat up some instant curry later. Mari: You know, when I said "anything," that wasn't exactly what I meant…

Mari: Who do you like more, me or Samumenco? Goto: I don’t like either of you. Mari: Then… who do you like more, Samumenco or your girlfriend?! Goto: Huh? Why wouldn’t I pick my girlfriend?! Mari: You hesitated just now! Goto: I didn’t hesitate!!

Goto: What do you do in your spare time? Mari: I don't actually have that much free time… I have to compose songs, learn routines, things like that. Goto: Right, your job keeps you busy. Mari: Lately, I've also had to prepare a variety of uniforms for you! Goto: I never asked you to do that!

Mari: Now that I think about it, I had a bounty on my head too, didn't I? Goto: Yeah, when everyone was running around for information. Mari: Honestly, the amount was way too low! Goto: THAT'S what bothers you? Mari: It should've been 100 million, at least!

Goto: I haven't been able to take a break in forever because of you guys. Mari: Got it! Let me apologize by taking you on vacation! Goto: What kind of vacation would THAT be?!

Goto: What do you think about getting cosmetic surgery and stuff like that? Mari: Ick! I would never. Goto: That's actually quite sensible of you. Mari: It's because my body is already 100% perfect!

Goto: Being an idol seems really busy. You must be exhausted. Mari: I find a way to make time! Goto: Don't you ever sleep? Mari: Well, you know, in meetings and stuff. Goto: Don't do that!

Goto: Do you even have a license? Mari: Of course! Goto: For driving? Mari: Yeah! My most recent driving instructor even said that my driving was the best it's ever been! Goto: Somehow… I feel bad for him.

Goto: You and Masayoshi kind of have similar tastes, huh? Mari: What do you mean? Goto: Like your costumes, for example. Mari: Don't be stupid! My costume is ten thousand times better than his! Right? Goto: …no, they're pretty much the same.

Mari: Omawari-san wa inu ~ ♪ Goto: What are you singing? Mari: It’s my new song—“Inu no Policeman!” Goto: Huh. (There’s no way it could be about me, right?)

Goto: What is it about me that makes freaks like me so much? Mari: You’d call me a freak when I'm standing right in front of you? Goto: Ah… sorry. I was thinking about Masayoshi. Mari: So you totally ignore that I like you too, huh…

Mari: Don't you want to join us heroes? Goto: I'm already a cop, so that's like a hero of the common people. Mari: Well, the uniform is good, but it's a little plain… Goto: It's plain work, supporting society.

Mari: Hey, officer? Where can I buy a gun? Goto: No way. Don't buy one, don't use one, don't even WANT one. Mari: Yeah, that's what I thought you'd say… I guess I'll just have to use my shock baton and explosives! Goto: Don't use those either!

Goto: Whenever you get photographed as Flamenco Girl, you always face the camera and strike a pose. Mari: Of course I'm gonna pose for the camera! Goto: I guess that comes with being an idol. Mari: No, I've been this way since I was a little girl!

Goto: Do you want to see a movie sometime? Mari: I've only got the Red Axe movie, but guys like that, right? Goto: Why do both of you only have these hero show theatrical releases…?

Goto: You and Masayoshi both live in really nice places. Mari: Why don't you spend the night sometime? Any time you want is okay with me! Goto: Absolutely not.

Goto: Ever since I met you, it feels like it's been nothing but losing tickets. Mari: You don't think meeting me was like winning the lottery?! Goto: No, it was more like blowing my savings on nothing. Mari: You're supposed to be happy we met.

for the warriors ask game :D

🗺 : first map you ever watched?

🖼 : first amv/pmv you ever watched?

(I used to watch MAPs religiously those are my jam)

yay thank you! warriors ask game except the questions are all weird and niche as hell!

know: my memory is bad. i've been into wc for... well over a decade now, so these are probably not accurate xP my first warriors video was i believe a spoof video about ashfur and squirrelflight, but my first map and amv? uhhh unsure!

🗺 : first map you ever watched? - i didn't actively watch maps as a small kid, or at least i don't think i did? the first map that i entirely remember watching was during my second major warriors phase by the time i was closer to... 15 maybe?? as opposed to my earliest memories of wc which are from when i was 10 or younger lol. little fang, which is making me genuinely super misty eyed to rewatch, it's just so so good, from the style to the designs to how well it gets into jayfeather and his family with only animation and music, the composition of every part is so good, the designs, all of it. the sole reason little fang is one of my favorite songs to this day it might, miiight, have also been evelyn evelyn? that one was certainly one of the first maps i ever watched that stuck with me. the dovewing kinnie has entered chat

🖼 : first amv/pmv you ever watched? - i cannot remember. i watched sooo many amvs as a kid. not my FIRST amv, probably, but one of the earliest i recall is ashfur's revenge, which is delighting me so much to rewatch. this one was formative for me, i miss the style of flash-animated warriors amvs that (obviously:() aren't around anymore. i also have such a soft spot for tigerclaw is not one of thunderclan, one i was thinking about the Entire Time i was writing the exile scene in spottedfur's pride lol. i still love it so much, this is my first time rewatching it in like... a decade, im sure. its so good. im kind of blown away as i rewatch these that they ARE as good as they are, cuz i feel like it's common in the warriors fandom to treat old amvs as some cringeworthy lost art (in general i have strong opinions on how (unintentionally)cruel the internet starts being to things as soon as they enter "nostalgia" territory) - but there's still, like, genuine talent in these. there's a reason these amvs were as popular as they were, and not because we were all cringe 10 year olds who didn't know better, lol. also reminds me of tigerstar and the dog pack(be prepared) - which is one i have the most vivid memory of watching on my family computer, hehe. in general i love corvus katana's stuff, past and current oh my god i will never get this ask posted because i keep remembering ones that helped, like, form a lobe of my brain growing up. HOW TO SAVE BLUESTAR'S LIFE YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS!!!! I AM TOTALLY NOT CRYING REWATCHING IT. YOU ARE. YOU ARE. cant believe i had a phase where i hated bluestar - i think everyone did because they spontaneously realized she was imperfect, immoral even at times, and made mistakes but hadn't developed the media comprehension to realize she was... actually meant to be complex and troubled and not just a perfect leader. god. bluestar. god. god. g (im also gonna use this question as a chance to gush about old amvs that i remember that are unfortunately lost to time: a hollyleaf one to hurricane by thirty seconds to mars (!!!! THIS ONE WAS SO FORMATIVE BUT IM LIKE 80% SURE ITS LOST MEDIA), bluestar heart heart head (PLEASE tell me im not the only one who remembers this one!!! i was devastated to learn it wasn't iconic or reuploaded anywhere (as much as i also think, again, in the nostalgia-sense, people act entitled to things like old amvs or people's art or whatever else)), NIGHTCLOUD GIRL WITH ONE EYE CHANGED MY LIFE?and... probably more of course that aren't coming to me now xP

i. didnt expect to ramble as much as i did with this? i just can't put into enough words how formative warriors amvs and the like were for me growing up :'DD they were my major start for digital art and animation (something i did a lot when i was younger but fell out of over time, but god i'd love to animate again, maybe do a classic wc amv to spottedfur's pride or something lol)

thank you for the question! I am so incredibly normal about warrior cats.

midday tuesday

sort of getting a handle on the volume of work i have to do. ough. writing this tuesdaypost while i wait for the initial step of a simulation to finish running so i can see if what i'm doing is correct.

listening: listening to haken's fauna album again because i'm seeing them live soon (!!)

next listening (against my better judgement because you can probably figure out where i live based on it): local bar had some bands this past weekend, i missed the first group (dopplepopolis) unfortunately because i am chronically late to things that don't have consequences but allegedly they did a holst mars cover ?? which sounds fascinating and i'm so mad i missed it. the second group was alright (the lunar diamonds), pretty good stage presence and they clearly had a lot of fun but their original songs were a little forgettable to me, their cover of psycho killer WAS a banger. i'm very sad they don't have that put up on spotify. but the third group (please her). oohhhh baby. i fell a little bit in love with the lead singer, not gonna lie! i went and listened to their spotify and while some of it really doesn't hit the same as the live performance it's still very fun. she had a spray bottle full of water and was periodically spritzing the audience. at the very end she was like "welcome to church, you may be seated" and had us all sit/crouch on the floor to listen to her announcements about the band over a groovy backing track. their bassist is INSANELY good too. mans be slappin that thang. they listed their genre as "scorpion core" which i still do not understand but god bless 'em.

anyways. they have one album out right now (bandcamp / spotify) and it's worth giving a listen. favorite track: 12 @ the Party, followed closely by Fellas!. i will probably buy it next bandcamp friday.

the lunar diamonds only have one track up on spotify but it is one of their originals that i found toe-tappy: Treads

i'll have to give the band i missed a chance but it will likely not hit the same as if it were live. c'est la vie

finally, haven't finished the release radar for this week yet, but i do really love ethan bortnick. the way he meshes classical-inspired piano with the alt beats is just so fun. hide n seek

reading: next mdzs book came in from the library! truly nothing like the rush of getting the notification "your book is ready to take out" before the estimated date :3 so i'm a little ways into volume 2 now, we're in yi city, xue yang is soooo much more obviously desperate to get xiao xingchen fixed in the book than in the show. loser (affectionate)

watching: next verse same as the first. dungeonmeshi and kill la kill with boyf. the kelpie animations were really fun and also the kraken !! good shit. there are other posts that have explained this better but i love the way trigger is animating the backgrounds. as for klk, we're on ep15 now! i have forgotten sooo much of this show, nui harime showed up and i was like oh SHIT i forgot about her !! entirely!!! so it's been a really fun rewatch.

playing: ran dnd saturday and played dnd on monday! saturday dnd defeated the mdzs dancing fairy :b at some point i will probably design something that involves finding a haunted arm pointing in a direction to reuinite its body a la nie mingjue but we've got some very strong anti-undead characters in this party so that may not go over very well. monday dnd involved getting hunted by a spooky fey hyena and getting robbed by a goblin group. something something goblin microaggressions. still fun even though i was VERY sleepy by the end of it.

making: pottery that i FORGOT TO PHOTOGRAPH ... i was like "i'll take pics at open studio saturday" and then the kiln was running so, on one hand, yayyyy kiln! on the other, no pics for this tuesdaypost. so. more pics next week. i did make some hopefully-teacups for my bf, depending on how severe the shrinkage is, but these are the smallest items i've been able to make (0.5lb clay) and it's sooo much harder than i thought it would be. pics with ruler for shrinkage measuring purposes

you might catch in the first photo that the top cup has noticeably thicker walls than the others ... don't worry about it ......

eating: coconut fish and tomato bake thing that i added too much lime to by accident but still tasty... sheet pan tofu and brussel sprouts!!!! so this is an elite one, adding to the arsenal. literally just halve the sprouts and cube the tofu, drizzle w olive oil and salt and peppy, roast at 450 til its. done. whenever. while that's roasting make rice. the sauce is 1:1 ratio of tahini to hoisin sauce with minced garlic to taste. it is To Die For and SO easy. last night roommate made turkey meatballs with couscous and even though the couscous burned just a little bit it was still yummy!

misc: turns out ... if your body wants ~9 hours of sleep a night but you make it live off of 7 for weeks on end ....... eventually you will get sick LOL. probably partly alcohol ibs stuff but still. sunday was a total wash for me and i went to bed at 10pm and felt normal monday morning. so. i need to just be going to bed earlier (pain). work this week not as terrible at least. i am doing my shit that i need to be doing and it's going okay! which is good because i'm calling it an early week kinda for that concert hehe. oh valentines day! boyf got me a little leatherman multitool keychain and it's so cute and i love it, and i got him a bird scope phone holder so he can take bird photos easier!!!

hi angel, i’ve been really into matchups recently — a coping mechanism for how stressed uni has me. i’d love a matchup with one of the jjk men please? i do have a favourite, and i do have a type…so i’m curious to see who i’d be matched with. i’m a leo stellium — leo sun/rising/mercury/mars w/ a pisces moon and a virgo venus. i’m also an enfp. i’m a bit of a firecracker. passionate and intense, feisty and emotional, spoiled and demanding, principled and loyal and incredibly romantic. i’d like to think i’m brave. i’m not afraid to fight for what i believe in. i’m also the eldest daughter, and a bit of a perfectionist. i’m a huge city girl, and i enjoy reading, writing, shopping, and curating hyper-specific Spotify playlists. i also love doing my skincare and makeup, and have an extensive shower and self-care routine that gives me almost the same benefits as therapy does. i adore late night drives, sunny but cold weather, the mountains, and the city lights. i grew up amongst skyscrapers, and i couldn’t live without them. my favourite way to spend a night out is with my girlfriends, going from one swanky bar to the next, exploring new restaurants, giggling and gossiping the entire time. i’m not a big fan of the outdoors, or of bugs, lizards, amphibians, stinginess, and indecision. i talk a lot, i love talking. i suppose it’s why i tend to gravitate to people opposite from me. my best friends are both introverts and i’ve always had a thing for quieter men. i’m still discovering my style but i know i like stuff that’s bolder and a little glamorous. i’m a huge bootcut jeans girl. i only really wear gold jewellery, but i’m trying to mix metals at the moment. thank you so much. x

Oh girl 🫢😭 I wanna be your friend, you seem sooo fun..

It’s Giving Princess Satoru

Gossip sessions with him could you imagine his input ? 😂😂😂

Spoiled and demanding ? No problem anything you want it’s yours. Maybe he’ll make you beg just a little bit for the fun of it.

Gojo is a Sagittarius tho (Sag gang ♐️🤪) so it’d be interesting to see two fire signs together, maybe you two would burn each other out ?

Cherishes your loyalty and appreciates you so much for being there for him. Rewards you for it (Geto ptsd.)

Let’s you do skin care on him, will remind you to do the skin care routine on him.

Will walk with you to see the city lights, loves the, too.

Loves that you have a good moral compass and sense of self, will ask you your opinion on everything before he makes big decisions. Ask your opinion on random stuff to just to make sure what he thinks is normal.

Will put in effort and go the extra miles when it comes to dates. It’s an ego stroke when you tell him how great the night was.

Probably doesn’t listen to a lot of music so he does take your suggestions on songs will talk to you about the songs after he’s listened.

He WILL, be one of the girls and go bar hopping with you if you let him, but he’s fun so no one minds that he’s there

1. Are you an albums person or a singles person?

Albums !!! I think . askdfjksd

4. Is there a song you love but don't like its music video?

oh i am sure there are lots... especially songs from when i was a kid bc radio music always has hypersexualised music videos and those always made me feel so so uncomfy... can't think of an example rn though :0

8. Is there an artist or song that you like, despite being of a genre you don't usually like?

OOOHH HTHIS IS AN INTERESTING QUESTION HMM

Scared of the Dark by lil wayna, ty dollar sign, and xxx. i do Not like mumble rap and i really didn't like the verses but the CHORUS WAS SOOO GOUGHOGHOUGHOG EXPLODES that i listened to it on repeat and now i love the song (even tho i find the guys voice in the verse funny)

29. Songs you love to dance to:

funny you should ask that bc i have a playlist~ ... I JUST DELETED IT BY ACCIDENT FUCKKKKKK AWOFEIJAWEFLK

anyways. i will fix that later welp KFJSAKDJF

come on eileen by dexys midnight runners is A CLASSIC AND MUST BE ADDED IT'S THE BEST DANCING SONG EVER IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY AND EVER SINCE I READ BEES FIC HONEY AND TANGERINES IT MADE IT EVEN BETTER I CANNOT DO THIS RAHSSSSSS

disco by surf curse is another song that is just INSTANT DANCE VIBES how can u NOT dance to it

kiss goodnight by IDKHOW is another really lovely song that always makes me want to dance :)))

30. Songs you love to sing along to:

now this one i ALSO have a playlist and i will NOT delete it this time ohmgyod im actually so sad i loved my dancing playlist HELPS FDKJKJD

songs that are Simply Bangers hehehe this one's for when i just wanna shout lyrics at the top of my lungs

but for specific onesssss

Locked Outta Heaven by Bruno Mars // IT'S SO GOOD IT MAKES ME FEEL UNHINGED IL OVE IT SO MCHUH ABRKARKJWBAEKAWJKB unfortunately the lyrics make me feel Uncomfortable singing bc . major ace here woOOO but it's fine i just live in denial and try to remind myself that most ppl are actually yknow normal about sex unlike me LMAOFASJKFKJ

You Make My Dreams by Hall & Oats // literally any 80s song makes me so inexplicably happy and i Need to sing the lyrics aloud at the top of my lungs man

40. Which was the best concert you’ve ever been to?

i love ALL of the concerts ive been to but... half alive . half alive was SO FRICKEN COOL DAWGWGAOJIAWEAAEWR THE LIGHTS THE DANCING I CANT I CANNOT GET OVER IT IT WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST MOMENTS OF MY LIFE /SRS IT WAS INCREDIBLE OHMYOGDDD

52. Do you make playlists to be listened to in a specific order or in shuffle? Or both?

so i used to. hate shuffling. bc i am very very picky about the order of songs i listen to (like when i shuffle i will just . look at the queue and edit it intensely). so i used to make them for a specific order and actually one of my favourite things to do is figure out songs that transition super super nicely into each other oguhoguhgo so making a playlist that is perfect from start to finish is my dream... however rn i have such a big?? music taste??? that the playlists are so long and curating it to be the Perfect Experience would take too much time so now i just add shit and shuffle ofssdlkfd

58. Send me a song and I'll tell you the colors it made me think of, without looking at cover arts or music videos.

well that's just kinda unfair the word gold is literally in the title HELPPP but i picture the field that's in the music video (wait help "without looking at the music video" too late for that buddy it's engrained in my memory with how many times ive watched it), like that greenish colour that's what i think of yellowish green

but okay okay im turning it on now and the colours i get while listening to it is faded pastel yellow from the guitar intro, it turns more brownish orange in the verses, DEF a deep yellow/brown when the bass comes in

the chorus is green to me, the ooOooOOo is green and yellow to me

gosh i love golden hour

61. Make me choose between two artists/songs/albums.

ooohhh this one is hard bc like lovejoy has so much more stuff but wilbur soot changed my life

im choosing wilbur bc of since i saw vienna but do know that this hurt me asdjkfasdjkhf

[starry-bi-sky]

that is EXACTLY Kon and Danny and i am ALSO living for it. Half-Kryptonian Half-Human Alien Boy and his Half-Human Half-Ghost Eldritch Horror Boyfriend. Power couple of the century <33

(ye ofc! Draw him whenever you have the energy/time and stuff, lord knows its easier that way and a ton more fun.)

AND GRAH IM GLAD YOU BROUGHT UP BABY DAMES. I love baby Dames he is my special little boy. My precious ex-assassin clone child. He absolutely sleeps in the hood of Danny's scarf and Danny fucking loves having him there. There are the two most specialist ever <33

Kon has come to visit Danny a few times and found him floating in the middle of his room in his ghost form, Damian fast asleep on his chest and all wrapped up in his scarf. Danny's conjured floating stars around the pitch black room that are all steadily orbiting around them. Danny is making this strange, humming-purring sound. It's totally inhuman and hauntingly beautiful.

SPEAKING OF MUSIC. Clone^2 Danny and Damian's whole vibes are based off Sleeping At Last. But in particular Danny is Nine, Two, Pluto, and Damian is Eight and Saturn. This is PURELY so i can spread Sleeping At Last Agenda and inflict you with Emotions that these songs Inflict On Me. (Also Neptune, Mars, and Earth. Mars in particular i imagine Danny saying to Damian)

Sometimes he gets to stick around and he sits on the floor with his head in his arms, hearts in his eyes, as Danny create this whole new mini solar system around them.

THEY ALSO GO FLYING TOGETHER. GraHH. They can both go so far up. They have races. Them doing that thing where they both go up up up, and then fall together, catching themselves before they can hit the ground.

SO MANY REGRETS WITH INTRODUCING DANNY'S FRIENDS TO KON'S. You just kNOW that Bart is trying to race Johnny 13. Everyone loses here. He also wants to race Danny. Tucker is showing off his PDA to Tim and Sam is talking to Cassie. Kon and Danny are off somewhere.

They have sleepovers and stay up late playing video games. Damian is positively determined to stay for the whole thing. He sits in Danny's lap the whole time and Danny uses him as a personal headrest -- as is the cost of staying awake and being there. Baby Dames always ends up falling asleep before 10. There HAS been a recreation of the Penny Snapcube Mr. Crocker Breakdown if only so that I can make Danny be Penny and absolutely lose his shit laughing with everyone.

yes yes yes. Kon sees Danny with the Long Ass Hair and promptly short circuits. Forgets how to speak and cycles through gibberish, kryptonian, some other alien language he learned off planet, before then finally landing on english. Only to spit out a Li Shang-levels of pathetic "you- you look good" line and promptly wish he had danny's intangibility so he could sink through the floor.

Danny with even longer hair means Kon gets to play with even more of his hair. Danny's working on some little pet project (NOT Kon's birthday present) and Kon is sitting behind him, his chin hooked over his shoulder, while he has one arm wrapped around his waist and the other hand is playing with his hair. This can and will result in Danny falling asleep.

(Danny is SO thrilled to meet Green Lantern and has a dozen questions for him about the other star sectors he's been to. Hal is RADIATING smugness. Bruce will never live this down.)

GIVES YOU SHAKEN BABY SYNDROME. YES YES YES. I'VE BEEN HARDCORE THINKING ABOUT HALFA DAMES. AND I LOVE WISP AS A NAME THAT IS SOOO DAMN CUTE OH MY GOD??? TEENY SMOL DAMES WITH GLOWING GREEN EYES AND SNOW WHITE HAIR LIKE HIS BROTHER.

also if Danny is like, 17-18 here, and Damian is currently 6, then that means Damian would've been like 2-3-ish and honestly that is SO cute (and also deliciously tragic). ITTY BITTY SMOL THING WITH THE TEETH. In comparison to the (still pr smol at time of creation but) much bigger Thing With The Teeth looming right behind him :]. Danny using his scarf to carry Dames around on his back like those african baby wraps. He still does it even when Dames is six bc they both Love It.

Smol Bitey Blob Wisp And His Much Bigger Much Scarier Blob Brother-(Technically-Dad) The Phantom. GIW are in for a, frankly, SHIT time if they even think of targeting Wisp. Bby can handle himself pr well but also. he Smol. He Babey. He Littol.

(which gives ME the opportunity to share my favorite quote for bruce clone!Danny, and that is: "Batman doesn't kill!" "Do I look like Batman to you?")

Kon absolutely loves seeing Danny in makeup. It's like, one of his favorite things ever. Eyeliner sharp enough to kill a man and the dark red lipstick?? He's gonna go wild. Danny's never gonna make it out the door, Kon is kissing it off him within minutes. Danny's makeup is smudged up and his lipstick is practically smeared off, and Kon is all but (messily) wearing it himself while looking like a smug cat.

"I have to go fix it now." Danny is grumbling, but his face is all pinkish and he's not all that upset tbh. Kon's got both his hands curled around Danny's waist. His fingers are a few inches shy of touching.

Kon just hums lowly and idly licks his lips, "I don't know," he says, "I think you look nice this way."

Which is, of course, the best way to make Danny flush perfectly scarlet down his throat and for him to laugh all truly bashful, and half-heartedly push Kon's face away with his palm.

Over 900 prompt

Okay I love the Danny is a clone of Batman aus but I've never seen this done.

Danny and Kon dating and Then Danny learning his parents cloned Batman thinking he is a ghost only to find out he isn't and kept Danny as their kid.

Just think of the hilarious reactions

Caue this immediately popped into my head.

Kon: *muffled screaming into Tim's couch*

Tim: ....you good?

Kon: danny is the clone of Batman

Tim: ...

Kon: I'm the clone of Superman

Tim:...

Kon: AND WE ARE DATING!

Ace

Happy birthday, [Yuu]. Sooo, here. Pick a card. ......Awww～ too baad, you didn't get the Ace of Hearts. Guess you don't get a gift this year! Whaaaaat, I was just messing with you. I'll hand it over later, so let's just go get something to eat for now.

Deuce

Happy birthday! We gotta party hard today. Actually, I've been practicing making some egg dishes for you, [Yuu]. Stuff like fluffy fried eggs, omurice, omelets, and... ...Eh? Y-You want to eat cake!?

SCARABIA

Kalim

Oh, Prefect! Good to see you again, happy birthday! ...Hm? You already heard that from me earlier when we passed by each other in the hallway? Well, that's cause I can only say these words to you once a year, right? That's why I want to say it as much as I can. Heheh, let me congratulate you as many times as I can until the day is over!

Jamil

Oh, right, today's your birthday. I do have a present prepared for you, but... Well, I suppose you have no need for it. I'm sure that you of all people have already had many others celebrate with you already. ...Heh. Don't worry, I'm just kidding. Happy Birthday.

POMEFIORE

Vil

Happy birthday. I've prepared a special present for you, to celebrate you growing another year older. This is something that you are in the most desperate need of. As to what it contains...

IGNIHYDE

Idia

Happy Birthdaaaay～ Heh, how's it feel to have your lifespan shortened by another year? ......What, you say you're happy that everyone's celebrating with you? ...Haaah.

Waiー don't try to drag me there!

Ortho

Happy Birthday, [Yuu]-san! Thanks for always being so friendly to me! Ehehe, I read on the internet that "Birthdays are the best day to convey your feelings of gratitude," so I knew I had to make sure to tell you that. I'm so happy to be able to celebrate with you. I hope we get to keep having so much fun!

DIASOMNIA

Allow me to celebrate your birthday with you, and bestow upon you my blessings. I recently discovered a fascinating gargoyle.

Silver

Oh, today is your birthday. Happy birthday. This may simply be a meager present, but I tried making a poundcake from wild strawberries. Its appearance may leave much to be desired... However, I practiced making it over and over again so there shouldn't be anything wrong with the flavor. Please try it.

Sebek

Today's your birthday, right? Tell me what you would like. I'll give you a present as appreciation for all your daily efforts. ..."Nothing in particular" is extremely unhelpful. If I don't give you anything, I will have failed in my propriety. It doesn't matter what it is, just think of something! Until you do, I won't leave your side at all today.

Lilia

Here, I have a present for you. What's wrong? You look so bewildered. It's your birthday today, right? Of course I remembered. Only, I keep forgetting my own birthday. Will you remember for me in my stead? Kufufu...

Grim

Happy birthday! Hey, hey, today's the kinda day where there'll be a large cake to eat at the celebration, right? But I bet you can't eat it all by yourself. Guess I'ma hafta help you eat it! Aren't I the nicest? 'Kay, let's hurry and go to where the feast is. Follow me, [Yuu]!

[clambuoyance]

Could you do an analysis of Conner's character with the song "I'm Still Here (Jim’s Theme from Treasure Planet)"

Because there is some correlation there but my mind ain't thinking of the words to form a sentence about it. And I've been listening to it for days- and want to hear someone talk about it. My favorite cover is Annapantsu's.

Just imagine Conner mumbling the lyrics under his breath and fumbling his fingers on the strings of the guitar mimicking its melody. He'd be so sad but finds comfort in a song that reflects his hope and his situation he was in. Like brrruuuhhh, cause I get that feeling when a song relates to me a lot and still wishes hope for the listener. Anyway got songs that makes you think of Superboy?

GOD. it's been AGES since i've seen this movie but this song is giving me brainworms. Jim even has an undercut and an earring and a cool jacket in the movie im getting ideas uh oh...

anywaysss this song is very fitting in general for like young ppl trying to grow up and form their own identity but it fits so well with kon like.

"i am a question to the world/ not an answer to be heard" idk but this is like his debut and clone origins in ROTS i guess, like what will the world look like without superman. actually i think part of kon's early character was based on the question "what would superman be like if clark was not raised by the kents when he was young?"

and the next verse is sooo him. "i won't listen anyway" yEAH he never listens he's a bit of a rebellious boy, "and i'll never be what you want me to be" *gestures wildly at his whole schtick* yeah. yeah that fits

"I'm a boy/No, I'm a man" God a major part of his whole character is relationship to aging and maturing and being young and growing up THIS DO BE HITTING DIFF

"And how can you learn what's never shown/yeah, you stand here on your own" he literally only has implanted knowledge and memories but like. He's never shown or taught things and kinda just fucks around and gets himself into messes and SOMETIMES people come in and lecture him

"And I want a moment to be real/Wanna touch things I don't feel/Wanna hold on and feel I belong" ive seen people say that another reason kon acts like That in the beginning is bc he wants to experience everything bc everything in his brain is not his own or artificial and he wants to make it his own. and ugh yes BELONGING T-T

"And how can the world want me to change" everyone telling him to grow tf up

"They're the ones that stay the same" ironically its usually HIM who doesnt want to do the changing

And then the whole "Im not here" to "Im still here" just gives me the vibes of him hating being called superboy and the very thought of being STUCK as superboy and never getting a chance to be superman, to him accepting the title and saying things like "I'm superboy! I don't have a mother or father--all I got is who I am!" LIKE no matter what he will get up again and give his whole heart and everything into things

OKAY I COULD GO ON BUT YES. GOOD SONG CHOICE

as for others that remind me of Kon:

Get Famous - The Mountain Goats (i wanted to make an animatic to this butttt oh well)

Runaway Runaway - Mars Argo

Good Kid - The Lighting Thief Musical (this whole musical fits the yj/teen hero squad but this song in particular reminds me of kon)

Zero to Hero - Hercules

So many Lana Del Rey and MARINA songs...

[jjenjoysthings]

I WAS GIGGLING AND SMILING SO HARD READING THIS IT'S TOO CUTE

Because yeah, that’s the excuse he goes for, wanting to spend his savings on having them sing to a certain head counselor instead of admitting his blatantly obvious feelings

oooo I love singing grams

“Right…she’s just a friend.”

Gotta make sure I know it if I’m singing it to your…friend.” The 18-year-old boy tugs at his dark curls, getting more embarrassed and wanting to retreat with every minute that passes,

is she just a friend?? (they're soulmates they just don't know it yet) him being embarrassed is so cute

“I don’t think she does either, even though everyone else can see right through them. The new bets are on who’s gonna break first. Chiron’s been keeping track, but don’t tell Mr. D.”

AHHH THE BETS I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THOSE, I gotta know every bet that has ever been made about these two and who usually wins

That, or the fact that Luke Castellan is always attached to your hip.

But you two are just friends.  Really good friends who look for each other in crowded rooms, hands constantly brushing against the other for comfort, and able to pick up where the other one leaves off. Usually he’s the first person you see in the morning, and the last person you say goodnight to. You know how he likes his coffee and he cuts your apples for you as you two sit together in your unassigned seats in the dining pavilion. You watch each other’s workshops and if one of you is missing, everyone knows to ask the other to get an answer. Right? That’s totally normal coworker/friend behavior.

THIS IS SO FUCKING RELATABLE the denial is strong i fear

Being around you felt so thoughtless and easy that if you told him to jump off a bridge he’d do it without question, which should be more concerning—the hold you have on him is irrevocable.

you could even say the hold she has on you is pure madness hehe

He thinks if he had to describe the four-letter word on the tip of his tongue, he’d tell whoever’s asking about the way you kissed his healing cheek after you both left the Garden of Hesperides. More than a year later, Luke is still unable to find the right words even if the weakness has made a home in his heart with your name written all over it.

this made me think of the song come inside of my heart by IV of spades

"I don’t want to be great, I want to be loved!"

“Sorry... that was a lot, and I’m just...wanting to be noticed. It's nice to have people's attention sometimes, you know?” You’ve got all of mine, he thinks, realizing he never stood a chance at fighting it—this four-letter feeling you give him is the first and only battle he’ll back down from, and you're the only person he’ll wholeheartedly surrender to. In short, he’s fucked. "I always notice you."

AHHHH THE FEELS she's so relatable like hating valentines day and wishing you had what everyone else has omg she's just like me frfr, also the only person he'll surrender to???? oh he for sure is sooo fucked

Luke doesn’t realize he’s holding his breath until he feels your lips gently kiss the marred skin on his right cheek, the blemish having an uncanny resemblance to a stroke of lightning; it serves as a reminder of his weakness. The lines blur as his eyes close to savor it and he doesn’t know if weakness is your kisses or his scar—but he is vulnerable to it all the same, realizing there’s a crack in the otherwise perfect persona that he’s worked so hard on. When his eyes open again, his Achilles’ heel has taken human form.

this whole ending scene IS SOOO ROMANTIC AND SWEET the song choice, little will with his light powers UGH MY HEART CAN'T TAKE IT, trouble being luke's Achilles hill is soooooo just perfect because they're soulmates duh but also ofc the person who makes you surrender before you even knew there was a fight is gonna be your weakness

“Come on, you gotta admit—it’s kinda funny!” 

Luke is met with blank stares at the camp store after he places a few drachmas onto the folding table in front of the Apollo kids. They’re not sure if he’s trying to convince them, or himself.

Because yeah, that’s the excuse he goes for, wanting to spend his savings on having them sing to a certain head counselor instead of admitting his blatantly obvious feelings, so if you ask Lee Fletcher and his half-siblings, it’s kind of pathetic.

“What do we look like, a traveling mariachi band, Castellan?” he deadpans, watching the usually confident boy scratch the back of his neck with his face red like someone who’s been sitting out in the sun for too long. 

“I’m not saying to follow her around all day or whatever, just pick a random time to sing a song and catch her off-guard,” he insists, before meeting the judgmental look of one of Lee’s younger siblings.

Lee chuckles, ruffling his sister’s hair before looking at Luke quite seriously, “She’s a good friend. You’re gonna have to pay us more than that. Special song for a special lady after all.”

The son of Hermes knows he’s gonna regret this sooner or later, but proceeds to throw the rest of his meager earnings onto the table. He has other ways of being resourceful anyway, the box of chocolates he nicked from behind the store counter feeling heavy in his jacket pocket.

“Right…she’s just a friend.”

Luke’s hands fidget at his sides as he stands there, feeling a little stupid.

Lee’s little sister scoops up the coins from the table, her raised eyebrows and light aura mirroring that of her older brother. 

“What song were you thinking?” she asks, “Gotta make sure I know it if I’m singing it to your…friend.”

The 18-year-old boy tugs at his dark curls, getting more embarrassed and wanting to retreat with every minute that passes, but he’s never been one to back down from anything–swordfights, monsters, capture the flag, but this—trying to impress you...is a whole different story somehow.

Why are feelings so damn complicated? 

It feels like being at the butt of a joke, or more accurately—at the sharp edge of a sword, and Luke never lets his fights end in a draw.

“You guys got it covered. Just…surprise me too, I guess,” he sighs, walking off without finishing his sentence. He wishes he could pray a little harder to his dad for luck, even if he’s unsure of what exactly he’s wishing for (or if his dad will even listen).

“Castellan’s hopeless. You think he knows it yet?” the girl asks her brother, to which Lee laughs.

“I don’t think she does either, even though everyone else can see right through them. The new bets are on who’s gonna break first. Chiron’s been keeping track, but don’t tell Mr. D.”

If Luke wants a show, they’ll make sure he’ll get his money’s worth—and hopefully, it’ll push you two along faster. Lee bet on you two getting together before the summer after all, and he’ll be damned if he loses to Clarisse.

—

Valentine’s Day might be the day of love, but for you, someone who’s single (not by choice), and heavily busy with making sure people aren’t so…enamored in public (you’ve lost count of the reports you’ve written out due to indecent behavior this morning alone)---this just feels like another Wednesday, except with more hormonal teenagers with uncontrollable urges than usual. 

Oh, the joys of being the daughter of the camp director, also known as everyone’s favorite narc.

Honestly, love can suck it. With this much love in the air, you can feel it suffocating you like a plastic bag over your head. 

That’s an uncontrollable urge. Too much?

Maybe Silena was right, you do need to open yourself up more to romantic opportunities. But if you have to watch another person swap spit and get pawed at like they’re the last dinner roll at the table….You might commit arson and set this place ablaze.

You just didn’t understand why people had to go all out today of all days. Shouldn’t love be shown year-round? Though you were a person of theatrics and enjoy a good show, it is amazing how much grandiose displays of affection make you cringe. It felt very performative, instead of genuine, and you would know, you’re the best actress at camp. You’ve acted out stories before, knowing all of the greatest romances and tragedies by heart. And you pride yourself on being a decent teacher to the campers, but for some of them, love still translates to a bad rendition of a ballad they heard on the radio.

Nothing gets past you at this point.

But that sucks too sometimes, you know?

Multiple failed flings and a heartbreak or two weigh down on you on days like this one, as you’re stuck being a bystander to outlandish displays put on by the Aphrodite kids being put to work. Love is their domain anyway, and yours…makes you feel a little less undesirable. Each demigod has their own strengths and weaknesses, but perhaps in the name of love, some of them don’t know how to take a hint. Several forgettable prose readings, a Sparknotes version of Eros and Psyche, and too many red roses to count have you reeling from exhaustion and a bit of disgust—-and it’s only lunchtime. 

So yeah, maybe you’re a little jealous; they could call you Nemesis at this point.

The only flowers you got today were from the little kids from along the path to the strawberry orchard, and though it’s sweet—the human side of you misses affection. 

Devotion. 

To be a daughter of Dionysus meant to deal in extremes, obsession or nothing, and there are very few people who can handle that. Always being too much to handle, or uninterested as a defense mechanism. Perhaps that’s what scares admirers away. 

That, or the fact that Luke Castellan is always attached to your hip. To be honest, you’ve always preferred it that way—the both of you working as a pair always gets things done faster around camp and he brightens your mood, whether you admit it or not. 

But you two are just friends. 

Really good friends who look for each other in crowded rooms, hands constantly brushing against the other for comfort, and able to pick up where the other one leaves off. Usually he’s the first person you see in the morning, and the last person you say goodnight to. You know how he likes his coffee and he cuts your apples for you as you two sit together in your unassigned seats in the dining pavilion. You watch each other’s workshops and if one of you is missing, everyone knows to ask the other to get an answer.

Right? That’s totally normal coworker/friend behavior.

If you were ever given immortality, perhaps they’d make you the goddess of denial.

You’re sweeping up confetti from the dining hall floor after an uncoordinated excuse of a flash mob was performed for one of the Demeter kids…and not to sound like a heinous bitch, but maybe next time they should use something biodegradable…or less messy. Sighing deeply, you feel someone’s eyes on you, and when you look up, Luke’s standing there with two full plates of food.

“Take a break, trouble. No one’s paying you overtime,” he jokes, and you roll your eyes as you put the broom aside.

“No one’s paying me at all…” you groan, before taking the plate out of his hands and knocking your head against his shoulder in thanks. He snickers as his hand brushes the small of your back, tickling your spine as he leads you to sit at a table.

“Just another holiday. You know how it is.”

“It’d be nice to have a night off though. Sometimes I regret taking up the position,” you mumble through spoonfuls of soup. He throws his large hand over your shoulder, kneading some tension from your trapezius. Head jerking along with the movements, you giggle as soup dribbles off your spoon, which makes his lips quirk into a small smile. Being around you felt so thoughtless and easy that if you told him to jump off a bridge he’d do it without question, which should be more concerning—the hold you have on him is irrevocable. Feelings are way too difficult for his teenage brain to comprehend at this stage. It’s easier to wash dishes with lava or fight off a dragon (bad example, he knows, but there’s something about you that already makes him feel like he’s losing before anything’s even happened).

Luke is someone who fights until the end, a soldier who’s always trained and so ready that sometimes it makes you wonder what war he’s preparing for. Infatuation, or the scarier, four-letter word was not something he was ever briefed on.

“No, you don’t. You’re a control freak,” he says with a grin. 

Luke watches you play with the pendant on your necklace, the dragon scale he fashioned into your favorite accessory glinting in your hand. Running your fingers back and forth over the smooth surface, your other hand puts the spoon down and you place your head on his shoulder. He thinks if he had to describe the four-letter word on the tip of his tongue, he’d tell whoever’s asking about the way you kissed his healing cheek after you both left the Garden of Hesperides. More than a year later, Luke is still unable to find the right words even if the weakness has made a home in his heart with your name written all over it.

“I swear if I have to hear another person croak out a lovesong I might just drown myself in the Long Island Sound,” you scoff as his fingers trace circles onto your waist.

There’s a low strum of a guitar that reaches your ears and your forehead meets the cool surface of the table as you shut your eyes and grumble. It’s Lee and his half-siblings, beginning to walk through the hall seconds away from singing until they see Luke shaking his head and dragging his finger across his throat to please, gods, stop. The Apollo kids swivel and 180, walking out of the hall as the music stops dissonantly, rolling their eyes and dragging their feet.

“That was quick,” you say inquisitively as your head pops up from the table to see Luke looking off in the distance.

“Heh…I think they were just practicing or something…”

He then had to run off and pay them more drachmas for the inconvenience. 

Fucking hustlers.

—

The sun sets quickly on Camp Half-Blood since it’s mid-February, and Luke finds you trying to calm your nerves as you look at the mess of glitter and paper mache that covers the arts and crafts hall from floor to ceiling.

“I can’t believe this!” you say in disbelief as you look at Luke, and he takes the can of Redbull out of your shaking hand.  

“There’s just no fucking way everyone decided to use glitter. It’s everywhere! I’m—CONNOR, PUT THE SCISSORS DOWN!”

Luke sighs as he holds his hand out for his younger brother to give up the craft scissors, which he relinquishes with a mischievous grin. 

“Guys, go find trouble somewhere else,” Luke mutters, pushing his head away, and where Connor goes, Travis quickly follows, tossing a canister of glitter back at him and not knowing it was still open.

“Oops.” 

Immediately, the both of you are showered in iridescent particles, floating over your heads and stuck in your hair as the older Stoll brother looks at the two of you wide-eyed.

“You've already got trouble anyway,” he says teasingly, and this asshole winks at Luke before bolting out the door.

The room is silent now, and you pinch the bridge of your nose, before speaking, “I don’t care if he’s your brother, Luke. I might just fucking kill him.” You'd say more but your eyes are shut as you try not to breathe in glitter, and then the sound of the doorknob rattling catches your attention. Luke is standing there, finally faced with a door he can’t open, his eyebrows furrowed in annoyance–but the effect isn’t as menacing as it should be when he’s covered in red and pink sparkles.

“Not if I get to him first, the little bastard.”

“Just open the door,” you say panicked, running over and forcing his hands off the doorknob.

“I can’t if you won’t let me do it!” He grits, elbowing you and trying to unlock the door with both his inherited gift and brute strength.

“What kind of demigod even are you? Lockpicking is supposed to be your thing!”

“Well OBVIOUSLY, but it’s not working, now is it, trouble?”

Luke finishes off the rest of your energy drink before throwing the can over his shoulder and he swears he can hear you cuss at him under your breath as you berate him about the mess, so he chooses to focus on busting the door down instead of looking at the glitter stuck in your eyelashes and thinking about how the idea of being stuck in a room with you makes him feel weak at the knees. Through the window, his eyes meet the group of Apollo kids staring at the predicament you two are in (and the barricade of chairs the Stoll brothers put in front of the door). He sighs, and Lee’s little sister flips him off as they start to walk away again, instruments in tow.

“You gonna charge him again?”

A tiny Will Solace looks at his elders for guidance as they walk along the path. As one of the youngest in the bunch, he especially idolizes anything his half-siblings do, going along with whatever they see fit.

“No, but we’re close enough to the archery range that I might just shoot them through their hearts myself. Eros and Aphrodite themselves are pretty much begging us to,” Lee grumbles.

“Why are we doing this again?” Will babbles, and his half-sister grabs his hand to help him walk faster.

“A crazy little thing called love. You’ll understand it better someday, kid.”

—

Thankfully, it all starts winding down after dinner. Luke finds you leaning against a tree flipping through your clipboard during the camp sing-along, so he tugs at your elbow to get your attention.

“Wanna get out of here?”

You look at him, slotting your pen behind your ear as you notice faint glitter particles still dotted along his cheeks. As your lips pull into a small smile, you say, "I still have a few things to do after this, don't you?"

"Cleared your schedule for the night," he mumbles, and whether it's the glow of the bonfire or he's actually blushing, a teasing expression crosses your face as you step closer and cross your arms at him.

"You cleared my schedule for the night. How on earth did you do that?"

Instead of a proper reply, he grabs your hand, tugging you out to the docks near the lake.

"Don't worry about it."

He's not going to tell you that he owes Chris and Annie a few favors before the end of the month to make up for the night shift they ended up taking. Instead, you both sit cross-legged at the edge of the dock, a gentle breeze brushing at your clothes and for the first time today, you're able to just exist.

"I hate Valentine's Day," you suddenly say, looking up at the night sky, and he's watching you closely as the gentle shine of the moon casts a cool glow on your face. Luke cringes at your statement, thinking he's already thrown away his shot.

"Why's that?"

"Tell me something Luke, am I unlikable? Like, is there anything wrong with me?"

He looks at you like you've told him you’re secretly a cyclops.

“The fuck? How many times do I have to tell you that everyone thinks you’re great?"

You don't even give him a chance to finish his sentence before you blurt, "I don’t want to be great, I want to be loved!" Reeling back a little, you lean back on your hands to create some distance.

 “Sorry... that was a lot, and I’m just...wanting to be noticed. It's nice to have people's attention sometimes, you know?”

You’ve got all of mine, he thinks, realizing he never stood a chance at fighting it—this four-letter feeling you give him is the first and only battle he’ll back down from, and you're the only person he’ll wholeheartedly surrender to.

In short, he’s fucked.

"I always notice you." He pulls out a dented box of chocolates from his jacket pocket, opening it up for the both of you to share, and the look of amusement on your face makes him glad that at least one thing somewhat went to plan today, even if the chocolate truffles are a bit smushed. You’re popping one into your mouth and his dark eyes follow the trail of your fingers to your mouth, feeling his heart beat a bit faster.

But then you both hear the soft strum of a guitar from near the trees, and the two of you turn to hear some of the Apollo kids singing beautifully along the coastline.

I'll be seeing you, in all the old, familiar places...That this heart of mine embraces...

You gasp, grabbing Luke’s arm to push yourself up so that the both of you can turn and face a small group of your closest Apollo friends singing to the both of you. Luke’s eyes soften further when he feels you grab his hand and squeeze, leaning against his shoulder as you listen.

“Did you do this?” you mumble, still entranced by the performance.

“Only if it makes you laugh.”

And you do, in the way that he loves—a bit crazy and too loud, and it’s perfect.

I’ll always think of you that way…I’ll find you in the morning sun….

Whether it’s fireflies or Will bouncing light off the water to look like small, glowing candles, Luke can’t tell—he’s too busy watching your lips pull into a smile so confectionery his sweet tooth starts to ache. The little kid was never good at archery like his other half-siblings, but as your eyes shimmer under the ambient lights, you think his added romantic gesture shot you straight through the heart.

“You know, sometimes I really do hate you, Luke Castellan,” you whisper, and it couldn’t be more far from the truth.

“No, you don’t.”

His eyes flicker to you again, but you’re already looking back at him.

“I don’t.”

And when the night is new, I’ll be looking at the moon…but I’ll be seeing you…

It’s quiet now, and you’re unsure of where the Apollonian ensemble disappeared to but instead of worrying about if they’ll make it back before curfew, you stand there in front of Luke with your guard down.

Getting a little closer than he expected, your noses brush before you pull the slightly crushed wildflowers from your jean pocket, the only physical reminder you’ve kept from today, and tuck them into his jacket pocket, sitting right above his heart. 

“Thank you.”

Luke doesn’t realize he’s holding his breath until he feels your lips gently kiss the marred skin on his right cheek, the blemish having an uncanny resemblance to a stroke of lightning; it serves as a reminder of his weakness. The lines blur as his eyes close to savor it and he doesn’t know if weakness is your kisses or his scar—but he is vulnerable to it all the same, realizing there’s a crack in the otherwise perfect persona that he’s worked so hard on. When his eyes open again, his Achilles’ heel has taken human form.

—

“This has got to be cheating,” Clarisse grumbles as she watches from the distance, hidden behind the trees.

“It’s not cheating if I’m winning. Silena’s gonna get a kick out of this,” Lee chuckles, ushering everyone back towards the cabins. It’s a bit harder to do this in the dark as they try to be quiet and not interrupt whatever will happen next between their favorite counselors.

“Well lucky for you, your gifts are cute and romantic, what am I supposed to do? They fight enough!”

“That’s what got them into this mess in the first place. Come on, curfew’s in 10. We’ll find out which of us wins the bet soon enough,” Chris mutters, pushing them along back onto the main path.

“Easy for you to say, Rodriguez, you live with Luke!”

“Would I ever lie to you, La Rue?” he says with a mischievous grin, and the Apollo kids giggle at the irony.

—

“My body ages,

my anger burns into a seam.

I am so annoyed by love

and still it comes.”

Oh jesus Wizard Of Oz!!!!!!!!!!!

What would you say is the most niche music you listen to? Mmmmh I don’t really know… idk if listening to Vangelis is really a niche, but it’s the closest thing to a niche music i listen to

What's your favourite music related movie/TV show that's not a musical? Phineas and Ferb lol. I’m sorry but it’s so good!!! And probably other movies but I don’t remember them right now😅 Ooh Forrest Gump’s soundtrack is amazing! And so is Guardians Of The Galaxy (it’s basically my playlist so whats not to like)!!

New Girl

Welcome to my acc! This is my first ff and I hope you’ll like it!

Summary: Nefeli (20) is new in Seoul town and a young band called BTS are helping her. On a party-out night, the boys tho discover her guilty pleasure and next morning are using it against her in a playful way

Warnings: None

Notes: None

This is a tickle related ff, if you are not interested in it, please keep scrolling

Lots of love Nef 💕

“Ha bro, I told ya, this movie was sooo boring!” Jungkook exclaimed as he and his friends, Jimin, Namjoon, Jin, Taehyung, Hoseok, and Yoongi were sitting on their usual spot in the park.

The boys, well known as BTS, own a little unpopular band in Seoul. They do small shows at the local clubs just for their fun and when friends are coming around their place, they sing together to entertain them and they live all together since Jin turned 23, in 2015.

They all met at that exact same park years ago. Jimin and Taehyung had gone for a typical walk after a long school day, same for Hoseok and Namjoon who were studying at the same college. That park was Yoongi’s inspiration to write lyrics, so he was there to do his hobby. As for Jin, he had taken out his dog for a walk and Jungkook was waiting for a date that didn’t end up well.

Jimin had brought his guitar with him so he and his friend started singing ‘Stupid Love’ by Jason Derulo. Minute after minute the seven boys were singing together. One song, then another and another one, and another one until they had sung 12 songs together. And that’s how they met for the first time.

So now, seven years after their first met, the seven men were sitting again at the same bench and talking about everything and nothing and laughing like mad, which wasn’t rare when they were all together.

Just then a girl walked by. She was a girl around her 19s, with dark brown, curly, long hair. Her eyes were dark brown too and she was juicy… Her chubby cheeks were light red from the heat and 5.2 height was making her like she was 14 years old.

Her black – styled outfit caught the boys’ attention, as they were used to Korean girls wearing more colorful clothes, but she didn’t seem Korean. And also, the fact that she was looking around like she has amnesia and she couldn’t find herself made them more curious.

“She seems lost,” Namjoon noticed and that earned nods from his friends.

“Should we help her?” Jin asked which earned more nods. Yeah, for such a noisy boys, they were too quiet when it comes to girls.

“Um, excuse me, girl” Jimin said a little loud because he was away from her.

She turned her head and smiled softly at them as she came a little closer “Yeah?”

“You need some um… help? You seem lost” he asked her, returning the smile.

The girl looked around her and then back at the seven pair of eyes which were looking at her. The eyes were giving her the sense that the warmth of them was all around her.

“Yeah, I’m new to Seoul and I have no idea where am I or what to do” she explained.

Jungkook, Namjoon, and Taehyung let out some ‘ohs’ while the rest of them said nothing and just looked at each other.

“So, you’re looking for your house?” Jimin asked her again.

Their eyes widened as her answer which came out of her mouth was “Actually I don’t have a home yet”

The boys looked at each other, speechless. They had nothing to say. How’s even possible a girl was homeless and lives on the streets in a town like Seoul, it was too dangerous.

There was an awkward silence for some seconds before she spoke again, understood what they were thinking. “No no no, I’m not homeless” she laughed. “We exchanged houses with a girl from Korea, but she forgot to tell me where the house was, so I don’t know how to get there. She told me that she would text me the address, but she hasn’t yet, so I’m staying at a motel until she text me where to go”

The boys let sighs of relief as they heard that. They may meet her for the first time, but they were feeling bad for homeless people and they were always trying to help them.

“I’m Jimin and that’s my friends, Jin, Yoongi, Namjoon, Hoseok, Taehyung and Jungkook” he introduced themselves, pointing at each boy.

“I’m Nefeli” she said “My friends call me Nef tho” and smiled.

“You have a beautiful name” Jin said, which made her blush a little.

There was another awkward silence between the boys and Nefeli, so she decided to leave. “It was nice to meet you, thank you” and she made her way to go but she was stopped by a deep voice.

“Well, we can help you if you want” Taehyung suddenly said, earning looks from his friends and a surprised expression from the girl.

The boys were surprised too but then they changed into smiles and confidence. “Yeah, we can show you the town and help you get used to it” Jungkook explained happily.

Nefeli was seemed to be more surprised than she was before. She didn’t want to trust some random strangers, but she didn’t have a choice if she didn’t want to end up sleeping in the streets that night.

‘I can’t trust them, what if they are dangerous?’ she thought to herself. ‘But they seem so nice and they looked confused when I said that I don’t have a home’ she rethought. ‘Maybe I should trust them’

She kept staring at them lost in her thought when she understood that she hadn’t responded, and she was looking at them like she was from Mars.

“Um yeah, sure” she finally said. However, the boys sensed the fact that she was unsure about them. Her eyes could tell them. She just put a little smile on her face and then just sat there and waited awkwardly.

The boys really wanted to be polite to her, but they all knew they wouldn’t be more concentrated on her. They were just gonna help her but she wouldn’t their first priority at that time. They had wayyyy more important things to deal with, such as their job or colleges and their friends or family dramas.

As Nefeli’s eyes were traveling all around the place, they landed on a poster. She left from the spot she was standing to watch the details. The boys were watching her movements confused until they understood what this poster was about.

 “Oh, are they you?” she asked them curiously/surprised and they all chuckled.

“Yeah, tonight is our last appearance, wanna come?” Namjoon kindly asked.

Nefeli was a huge fan of music. Not just K-pop, she was listening to every genre of music. From pop to metal and from rap to classic music. The truth is that she had missed going to bars with friends and having fun. Her college was very demanding, and she had a lot of work to do every day, so she didn’t have time to go out and have fun. Now that her Erasmus made her come to Korea to finish her studies, she thought it was a good idea to have some fun. She was the only one who had high grades enough to go to an Erasmus. So, when she heard their invitation, she immediately thought it was a good idea to have some fun, even with some random guys she met just that day. And she wouldn’t be in danger because they wouldn’t be with her, she would watch them singing.

“Yeah sure, that’s a great idea!” she happily exclaimed. “What songs do you prefer?” she asked. She always wanted to know details about what she was about to watch and have planned the near future and her deeds. It was a part of her personality.

The boys chuckled. They weren’t the most popular band in Seoul, so they weren’t used to reply to questions about themselves and their program. So now that one girl asked about their show made them feel pleased and flattered.

“Well, the songs are ours and they’re pop. Me and Namjoon are writing the lyrics, Jimin is playing the guitar and Taehyung is playing the piano, while we are all singing” Yoongi explained. It was the first time Nefeli had ever heard Yoongi speaking. “However, I, Hoseok, and Namjoon are doing the rap parts”

“That’s amazing!” she said, a little louder. That caught boys’ attention, but not in a bothering way. They were more flattered than before; it was the first time someone was showing interest in their songs.

“Ugh… We should get going now, we have to practice” Jungkook sighed. The time was almost 20:00’ and they were only two hours left for their concert to begin.

“Jin and I have some time tho, we don’t have many lines today” Namjoon said “Let’s go for a coffee” he suggested.

Nefeli thought about it for some seconds. They were some guys she had met some minutes ago, in a city she was new to, and they were speaking a language she couldn’t understand.

However, the warmth of their eyes and their positive and pleasant aura confirmed her that they would not harm her and that she could trust them, so she nodded lightly. Yeah, that’s true. For someone who doesn’t trust people very easily and she’s afraid that they would hurt or abuse her, she trusts them very easily.

“Great” She was so excited to go for a coffee and eventually has some fun with friends, but now she was feeling weird. Like she didn’t belong with them. They were friends since… Well, since forever! And she was just a random girl they had met at the park some minutes ago, to who just showed pity and asked her if she was ok.

That was something that Nefeli hated most of all. People showing pity for her. It felt like people were talking to her because she was hopeless, and they were feeling sad about her life. It was like one time when her ex-boyfriend told her that he was staying with her because she didn’t have where to live, and he was feeling bad to leave her on the streets. Needless to say, that she broke up with him straight away. Fortunately, she found an apartment quickly, so she didn’t have to leave on a motel for too long.

But now it was different. She was feeling like a left-over piece of a puzzle. Like a coin between diamonds. Like a fly into milk. Her arms were folded in front of her chest and she was watching the boys chatting like she wasn’t there made Nefeli looking like an idiot. Her eyes were stuck to their backs and her pace was similar to theirs.

 Jin’s P.O.V

When I and my friends saw that girl, Nefeli, walking in the park, like she was an alien who came to Earth, we all thought we should help her. She seemed so… I don’t know… Out of this world.

When I noticed her black clothes, at first, I was confused. I’m not used to too many Korean girls wearing dark clothes. But she doesn’t seem to Korean. She’s wearing a black hoodie with a skull on it and black ripped jeans with black converse. I kinda like that outfit.

So Jimin decided to make the first move and asked her if she needed some help. It was the best choice. Namjoon wouldn’t know what to say like Taehyung and me, Yoongi never talks too much and that’s noticeable. And as for Jungkook, we all know how shy he gets when girls are around. I don’t know why Hoseok didn’t say anything, probably got shy too.

I was shocked when she told us that she didn’t have where to live, I don’t like people who live on the streets. I feel bad about them. Nefeli must have seen the sadness in our eyes when she said that because she fell a little bust, she covered that with giggles and explained the whole situation.

Gosh, those giggles were so cute, it reminds me of me and my brother when we were younger and he used to tickle me just too forced me to go and steal the cookie jar, then, when our mom would say that the cookies where gone, he would say that I ate them.

I’m so glad that Tae had the idea to help her and she accepted it. Usually, people wouldn’t have trusted some random guys they just met. She was about to leave when he suggested that to her.

And I’m really happy that she will come tonight to the club for our show. When she noticed the poster, I didn’t expect her to be so warm and interested in our little band. No one has ever been if I want to be realistic. Kids in our schools don’t give too much attention to us and it felt good that someone eventually did.

However, when Jungkook said we better should get going, Namjoon had a nice idea. We all saw that she was feeling still a little bit awkward with us. I don’t blame her; we’re some strangers in a completely new town who suddenly cared for her. So Joon said that I and he have some time free because we don’t have too much work or something like that and that we could go for a coffee.

The truth is that we have A LOT of work, but I didn’t want Nefeli thinks we’re some creepy boys who find random girls and just ask them questions. To be fair, I was surprised when she nodded.

Sometimes it’s like Joon and I have telepathy. He can guess what I’m thinking just by the look, so as I do with him. One day he had guessed that one of my sugar gliders was sick just by how I was looking at the TV. We don’t have the relationship Tae and Jimin have but we’re very good friends too.

Now we’re walking down the street tho, she’s not talking to us. Namjoon told me something about his ex-girlfriend to which I laughed a lot, but Nefeli didn’t seem to catch up. I don’t know what to do. She’s walking behind us with her arms folded and noiseless. I looked over Namjoon and mumbled a ‘do something’.

I know how she may feel. When I moved from Gwacheon to Seoul for my studies, no one was talking to me. When I finally found the company, they weren’t talking with me too much. Fortunately for me, I quickly took a step and started talking to them. But I was surrounded by boys my age. Unlike Nefeli, who’s surrounded by guys older than her.

 Normal P.O.N

Jin looked at Namjoon and mumbled a ‘do something’. They had sensed that she was feeling lonely and weird. But Namjoon had something on his mind.

“So Nef” she called her with her nickname hoping that would make her feel more comfortable. She looked up at them and smiled softly, didn’t want to show them how she felt alone. “We’re almost there. Let’s play a game while we’re on our way”

Nefeli sat near the window with Jin cornering her and Namjoon across her just when a nice little girl with short curly blonde her and two big hazel eyes got their order. Jin got a blueberry flavor tea, Namjoon an Americano, and Nefeli got a hot chocolate with marshmallows.

Namjoon had noticed the disappointment in her eyes when Jin announced that they were there, and they wouldn’t play the game so when their drinks arrived, he decided to just do that- “We can still play the game you know”

A little grin made his appearance on her face again while at Jin’s was confused. But that didn’t seem to bother him as he smiled too, and he was just waiting as impatient as the girl beside him for Namjoon’s decision.

“Let’s play 21 questions” he suggested which made Nefeli’s smile wider and Jin’s smirk appear. Nefeli like that game so much. She liked learning facts for other people. And also, it was a good time to learn things about those strangers.

‘Gosh, what am I doing? They’re complete strangers and I’m gonna play a game a have a chitty-chat with them!’ she thought to herself again. But that time the thought was a little faded. They had earned her trust and she didn’t know-how. She was just feeling safe with them for a weird reason.

“Okay Nef, you go first,” Jin said. His voice had something amused in his voice. Maybe it was the thing that they could know more about that mysterious girl who met just some hour ago at the park.

“Okay… Um… Fav song?” she asked not knowing how to start

“ME!” Jin answered quickly.

“Run with me,” Namjoon said too after he thought about it a little more and then asked, “Fav food?”

“Italian!” Nefeli exclaimed immediately, blushing a little.

The boys chuckled at her childish behavior and smiled at her “Lobster” Jin replied too and then proceeded to his first question.

“Biggest fear?”

“Elephants” Namjoon admitted not too loud, which earned Nefeli’s giggles as he playfully glared at her.

“Spiders” the girl said and now was the boys’ turn to giggle which made her glare at them just like Namjoon did.

The hour passed like that, with questions, giggles, and even some storytimes. The atmosphere was so light and nice. The guys turned out that they weren’t dangerous or that they wanted something from her, just like she thought. She had learned many things about them and some things for the rest of the guys too. Things like their most embarrassing moments, fav movies, first crushes, things about their families, and many more.

Just when she thought the game was over, Jin said that it was one question left and that he would ask it. He was thinking for a long time. He didn’t even look at Joon or Nefeli to concentrate more on his thoughts. Until it hit him-

“Biggest weakness?” he asked a mischievous smirk on his face, looking both at his friend and her.

“Um… I don’t know hyung… I don’t think I have one” Namjoon said, taking Nefeli by surprise.  ‘Everyone has one, he must have one too’ she thought and made the one thing she knew that would make him talk; she stared at him. Somewhen she read on the Internet that if you stare at someone who’s lying, that automatically makes him tell you the truth. And it worked. Soon Namjoon was looking at her and looking away immediately until he cracked.

“Okay, okay! Untidiness, satisfied?” he shot his arms up in surrender and leaned back on his chair. “Jeez kiddo, where did you learn to do that?!”

The pink line, which was on her cheeks by the heat, became clearer with the mention of the nickname. One of the things Nefeli really LOVED was nicknames. She was feeling nicknames are something special between her and her friends. Like something only, the two knew about and was important for their friendship. Especially when the nicknames were coming from her older friends.

Yes, Nefeli was feeling Jin and Namjoon, friends. They were the only ones from the group she knew well, and she was familiar with it. She laughed so hard that sometimes she was holding her belly of laughter. And she learned facts about the boys she couldn’t even think the boys were able to have done. Also, they shared with her stories of their lives. Childhood memories, teenage crushes, and adult adventures.

Her thoughts were interrupted by Jin’s voice who was looking impatiently at her, waiting for her answer. “Nefeli? What about you?” he asked her. ‘Oh my… I can’t say that! It’s weird’ she said to herself as the boys were looking at her and were waiting for her to answer.

“Uh um…” she opened her mouth to say something, but she hesitated to even though it was just a game.  

“C’mon Nef, it’s just a game,” Namjoon told her like he was reading her mind. “You don’t have to be embarrassed about anything”

And he was true. It wasn’t something she had to be embarrassed about, she just couldn’t realize that. The first time she told someone about it, it was her older cousin and after that, he couldn’t stop using it against her.

“Yeah Nef, everyone has one and that’s not bad. I’m sure it’s nothing you have to be insecure about” Jin comforted her. It was incredible how two boys she had met some hours ago, could give her the comfort she needed and read her like an open book.

“Well, it’s childish” she started to say. “So what?” the asked in unison. ‘Gosh, it’s just a game! Just say it already’ she pushed herself until she finally said it.

“I’m ticklish!” she admitted, immediately covering her face with her hands to hide her now tomato face.

The boys looked at her for some seconds before they chuckle and give her a comforting smile.

 Nefeli’s P.O.V

The boys were so sweet with me the whole time. I have a great time with them. Who knew that some random stranger would end up being some of the nicest people I’ve ever met? I don’t know about the rest of the boys, but these two are awesome! Namjoon even invited me to their concert tonight.

At first, when their friend, I think Jimin is his name, asked me if I was okay, I felt a little nervous and weird. I’m not that sociable and it was new for me people talking to me at the park. But their warm aura made me feel like I’m safe. Don’t ask me why! I don’t know either.

However, as we were walking down the street with Namjoon and Jin, I felt alone. They were talking and laughing together, while I was walking behind them, with my head down. I didn’t know what to do or say. Thank God, Namjoon is a clever guy and sensed how I was feeling so he suggested playing a game altogether. When Jin told us we were already there, I felt disappointed. I thought it was a good idea to get to know them better. Maybe the game was a good opportunity to see if they’re indeed dangerous and they wanted something from me, or they were just kind and gentle. But, instead of a rethink about the game, we just entered.

The café was so cute. There were also some posters of my fav band, Guns ‘n’ Roses. We sat at a sweet corner, beside the window, on a soft red velvet couch. I sat beside the window, Jin cornering me and Namjoon across me. An amazingly sweet girl came and got our orders. It was cold outside, and we just wanted something to warm our bodies.

So, when our drinks were on our table Namjoon told us that we could still play the game. He must want the same as I did. Probably.

So, he suggested one of my favorite games, ‘21 questions’. I always liked that game. I could learn facts for people and understand something more about their personalities.

I did the first question, even though I hesitate. I’m not the girl who would start the games so at first, I didn’t know what to say, but in two seconds I had said the first question that came to my mind.

The rest of the game was so nice. The boys told me so many stories and they made me laugh so hard. Jin told me about how his first date went when he poured a whole vinegar sauce on his girlfriend’s head as the waiter was passing by them and Jin accidentally kicked him. I laughed so much at it. Or when Namjoon had stuck his head under his bed because he was looking for his glasses which were on his head and he had forgotten about it. But the story I laughed at the most was one where they were all had gone to an amusement park and Hoseok, who’s afraid of heights, has stuck on the top of the wheel. He was screaming like me when I was five years old. I know that it wasn’t funny for him when he had to face his fear, but the story and the memory are.

However, when Jin asked about our biggest weakness I hadn’t had too much time to think as Namjoon spoke first and said he didn’t have one. I immediately knew he was lying. Everyone has one! So, I did the only thing I could think to make him spill it; I stared at him. Many years ago, I knew for a fact that one girl was lying to me about something. She had stolen twenty dollars from me, and I didn’t know how to prove it. I decided to make a research on Google until I finally found out that if you want to make someone who’s lying tell you the truth, all you must do is to stare at him. And it works every time! I finally got my twenty bucks back and I learned Namjoon’s weakness.

But soon it was my time to say my weakness. I really didn’t want to tho. It’s so embarrassing! The word itself makes me have so many butterflies in my stomach.

Since I told John about it, he tic… He does that to me every time! For love’s sake, he’s 42 years old! He got married this August and he still uses that when he wants me to do something and I don’t want to or when he’s just bored. And what’s the worst? I like it when he uses my weakness against me. Oh gosh… No one should ever learn about it! It’s too embarrassing and weird!

“Uh um…” I started but I closed my mouth immediately, realizing how weird it would sound. What if they wouldn’t want to spend time with me anymore? They were so sweet and caring with me. What if they thought it was creepy?

“C’mon Nef, it’s just a game, you don’t have to be embarrassed about anything” can Namjoon and Jin really read my mind? Because they comforted me for the exact same thing I was thinking about.

I was pushing myself and I was trying to make me sure that it wasn’t too weird and that I should not be embarrassed about it. And their eyes nailed on me, didn’t help the matter. It was like they were saying ‘Say it already!’. I was feeling like I’m under… Well, I don’t exactly know what, I was feeling stressed. And without even realizing it, I just said it out loud!

“I’m ticklish” as soon as these words left my mouth, I covered my whole face with my hands -at least I tried, my hands are super tiny!- to hide my now tomato face.

The boys chuckled and I looked up at him only to be met with two smirking boys, making me recovering my face. Even though they were trying to hide them, I could see them. I could never imagine them smirking at me. I met them one and a half hours ago! However, I liked it. I like people smirking at me. It hides something mysterious behind them and you can never know what’s hidden. And most of the time it’s not bad.

“Was that all?” Jin asked me to which I just nodded, behind my black sleeves, which I pulled high enough for them to reach the top of my fingers. If the skull on my hoodie could blush, it would.

“Cute” I heard Namjoon saying under his breath. Just then I felt some pokes on my sides. Jin! His fingers hit some of my most sensitive nerves, making me flinch so much that I would have fallen on the ground if I hadn’t had the table blocking me.

I backed in the corner of the couch and brought my legs up to my chest to block his devilish fingers as hysterically giggles were escaping my mouth unstoppably. I still can’t understand how he managed to hit my worst spot for the first time!

Namjoon took a ship of his coffee, wide smiling at the scene while Jin was laughing along with me as he was poking me all over my sides and tummy. Fortunately for me, the rest of the customers weren’t looking at us.

“JihihihiHIHIhin! Stohohohohop!”

“Leave the poor girl alone hyung” Namjoon finally saved my while I was trying to beat his hands away, successfully after Namjoon’s saving.  

“I like your weakness” Jin winked at me, making me blush one more time. I’m not the kind of person who blushes too easily, how did those guys managed to make me blush at least three times in one day? Well, it was kind of cute tho…

However, when I saw the clock on the wall I immediately turned to the boys and said “It’s 21:47” Jin and Namjoon jumped from their chairs, Namjoon ran to the barstool to pay for the drinks while Jin rushed outside the shop. I just sat there watching their super-speed like Flash had gotten into them in a cartoon program. I giggled as the two ‘animes’ made their moves in ten seconds. I tried to imagine them like real animes, and I tried my best not to burst put of laughing!

 Normal P.O.V

Nefeli snapped out of her thought when one hand landed on her shoulder, shaking her and pulling her to sit up. Namjoon. She looked up at her and grabbed her coat before she was pulled by a much stronger man outside to enter the car.

“I think I’ll walk until the club. I must learn the streets” she said right before she got inside. The boys looked at each other and then back at her. They were in a hurry, so their eyes were uneasy, and they were making quick moves.

“Nef get in the car” Joon insisted, making her more nervous and trapped in her thoughts. ‘If I got inside and they take me to a quiet place and do something?’ she thought. ‘I won’t get into the car, I’ll walk, nice opportunity for a nice, long walk’ and with that, she shook her head earning a look from both. However, they quickly sensed that, and they covered it with a warm smile and Jin told her “Okay, we’ll see you in some minutes, the address is…” she typed the address on her phone and saved it so she could ask the strangers if they could help her or the taxi driver she may take.

She looked at the car as it was running down the road fast, leaving some smoke behind it. That’s when she realized that they would be completely screwed up if they got late.

Nefeli let out a small smirk appear on her face and paced the exact way the car drove some seconds ago. Just then realization hit her. ‘Oh my gosh! It’s 21:50’!’ she yelled inside her mind and started running down the street. The boys would be very disappointed and sad if she didn’t show up. After all, they were so gentle and sweet with her that it would be at least rude not to go.

So, she did the only thing she could think at that time; she started looking for a taxi.

 Meanwhile

Jin and Joon had finally arrived at the club safe. When Jin is in hurry, his driving can be dangerous, and everyone knows that.

As they got inside, the audience was already waiting for the boys to start. They hadn’t seen too many people in place for their songs before. Even Namjoon, the tallest member, couldn’t see the stage properly.

The club was a huge, dark place, with low light. At the left there was a small stage, facing a large hall, filled with small and tall tables with two tall leather backless chairs. Behind that, there was a glassy bar, with a mirror from the right to left sides of the wall, with selves on it with the bottles of alcohol. The ceiling had all the lights for the shows and four huge black speakers. Also, colorful balloons and confetti were waiting for a great time to be released. The walls were leather with some marble details and gold corners.

They struggled to make it to the backstage (a little room behind the stage) to meet the rest of the boys, who all sighed in relief as soon as they saw their leader and the eldest member.

“Thank God you’re back! We start in like two minutes!” Jimin exclaimed, making the others nod while they were getting ready.  

Jimin was holding his guitar, ready to make his appearance on the stage, Taehyung was looking at his scores, Jungkook was drinking a water bottle and the rest of them were just sitting there enjoying the relax, before the big time’s arrival. They were all so nervous and yet so excited about their first ‘big’ show. Yoongi and Namjoon’s legs were shaking up and down.  

However, Jungkook was the first one who noticed that someone was missing as he popped his head from the door to see the audience and its amount.

“Where is she?” he asked a tone of sadness in his voice. Immediately all the eyes turned to Joon and Jin, looking at them quizzingly. They were waiting for her so much.

“She said that she will come by foot” the eldest explained, not looking at their bandmates while trying to fit the microphone in his pocket, God knows why.

Shock ran through them as soon as they heard that. They weren’t expecting that, partly because Nefeli didn’t know the town and partly because the boys thought she was trusting them.

Hoseok opened his mouth to complain but a guy from the club shut him when he came in to announce to them that it’s time and that they must come on the stage. “C’mon guys, it’s time, the audience will eat us alive if you don’t come up there anytime soon” earning nods from the small band.

As soon as they got out, on the stage, cheers and applause filled the room. Colorful lights fell on the boys as soon as they got on stage. A glossy piano was on the edge, and a base for guitar as well as a base for scores. From up there, the band could see all the people. It was an amazing experience!

“Hello guys, were BTS!” Namjoon started explaining and introducing the group. “Me and my bandmates are gonna entertain you for tonight! We hope you’ll have a great time!” the boys took their places. “Our first song is called ‘Run’” he announced before they start their show.

Time was passing so quickly and the band was getting more flattered. All that love was unprecedented. The lights were on them and blue, pink, and green lasers were playing with the dancing figures under the stage.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It had passed an hour and more and the girl hadn’t shown up yet. Namjoon, Yoongi, Jin, and Jimin had lost their hope to see her again, in contrast with the rest of the members who were still waiting.

However, they didn’t let that eat them alive. They had better things to do at those moments. Let’s face it, she was just a girl they had met in a random place who just seemed lost. If they weren’t so carrying, they wouldn’t even discuss about talking to her. They may be waiting for her and be disappointed when they didn’t see her, but their show was their number one priority.

Now, the boys had sung more than half of the songs they had prepared for tonight's show. And they were so energetic that they were jumping and dancing like maniacs all night long.

“Say what! Jjeoreo Jjeoreo Jjeoreo!” Jungkook finished his part as well as the song. Cheers, clapping hands, screams from little girls, and people were screaming for more, as the band’s faces were something more than excited and thankful. Their hard work was finally recognized and appreciated.

“Saranghae-ah!” Hoseok shouted from the microphone and the audience went mad. It was by far their best concert and they were feeling blessed.

As they were ready to start their next song, Yoongi and Taehyung noticed a familiar figure in the audience looking at them with a soft smile. Nefeli. She finally made it and now she was sitting there, on the bar, watching them and having fun.

Yoongi grabbed the microphone before Jin could take it “We have a very special person here with us tonight” he announced, earning everyone's attention. However, the rest of the boys immediately realized who he was talking about and they made sure to wear their biggest, gummiest and sweetest grin they could.

“Give us your warmest cheer for our friend, Nefeli” he exclaimed. In a flash of light people were screaming, whistling loudly, and clapping just for her.

It felt so… Sweet. Never someone had done this for her and she felt like she was special. In her life, people aren’t giving her compliments or talking and treating her so kindly and making her blush so hard. She was so flattered and red that she was feeling like she would explode from all the blood that was in her heart at that moment.

The smiles and the grins on their faces could tell they were happy she was there. Suddenly it felt like she was their first priority. It was so kind she made it and came to their concert. They were sad but at the same time so concentrated on their work, but now they were relieved.

“Our next song is dedicated to her and it’s called ‘Euphoria’” Jimin cut his words, gaining a glare from Yoongi and some chuckles from Jungkook and Hoseok.

The song was so nice! Its lyrics were sweet and so emotional (in a good way) she thought she would break out with tiny, crystal tears. As the song was going on, the girls were all amused and you could see hearts flying above their heads for the seven young singers.

The hours were passing so pleasurable. It turned out that the boys were so talented and their songs were very good. Nefeli liked a song called ‘Run’ the most. It was obvious that she liked that so much tho. She was moving with the rhythm and she learned the refrain for the first time, even if she couldn’t understand the language. It was a heart-touching song it was clear.

Now it was 01:02’ and the program had finally come to an end. More people had come and now the place was more crowded than before. The boys were in the backstage and Nefeli was outside the club. She was freezing cold but she could handle it.

It was the first time she had so much fun in months! Her college had swallowed her and the lessons were tough. Music was her favorite thing in the whole wide universe, so it was like she was in Heaven. Live Pop music in a nice club, just paradise.

‘Why didn’t I bring a coat with me? Jeez, the weather here is so cold’ she mentally complained, hugging herself. And she was right. The nights in Seoul are too cold in December and Nefeli wasn’t prepared for it.

Just as she was thinking that a tap on her spine makes her flinch and let out one single giggle before turning around to see the seven singers. They were dressing in heavy clothes, their faces were sweaty and their hair was messy. Their breaths were coming out like smoke as they were mixed with the cold air and Jungkook and Jin were wearing skull caps. The boys were exhausted and Nefeli could sense that, however, they were super happy about their success and they were smiling like crazy, from ear to ear.

“Wow, guys that was perfect! Congrats! You’re very talented!” she exclaimed, couldn’t wipe the excitement off of her face, making boys’ smiles grew and let out some chuckles.

“Thank you, Nef! Where were you? We were looking for you” Jin asked too happily, gosh knows why.

“I was here, I was waiting for you to come here and congrats you to go f-” She couldn’t finish her sentence due to Jimin pulling her with them back inside. “No no no no, you’re not going anywhere!” he said.

Nefeli started getting anxious. Jimin was pulling her with them, inside a bar, not knowing why. After all, she wasn’t knowing them too well. Sh4e was so confused. ‘Why do they insist so much? I came here, watched them, had fun… What do they want now?!’ she asked herself, so she stopped.

“No!” she shouted, gaining weird and confusing looks from the boys, and some strangers. “I-I’m just tired, I wanna go to a motel for some rest,” she said, realizing she had snapped out. She didn’t want to be rude, just defend herself, and make sure she was safe.

“It’s okay, we understand... We just wanted to have some fun with you and get to know you better, like Jin and Joon” Yoongi explained, making the boys nod in agreement. However, their face dropped to the ground. “So, that means we have to say bye” Taehyung continued looking sad in his eyes which were screaming tiredness too. “It was so nice to meet you, we hope we’ll see you again sometime!” Namjoon gave a warm smile and waved at her like the others before they turned their backs to get back inside.

She immediately felt bad. They were all so kind and sweet to her and they helped her feel so comfortable. And how she returns the favor? She lies to them, confuses them, and disappoints them. She didn’t like disappointing people. Seeing them sad, was making her sad too. Especially when she was the cause of their sadness.

“Wait!” she yelled, walking up to the boys, making them stop their way. “I’ll come with you” she smiled. Jungkook and Hoseok pulled them inside happily, and the rest of the band followed them, satisfied with the way things turned out.

The place was more grounded than before and the bar was full. Music was all around and some couples were making out too. There was a barman behind the bar who was purring vodka in shots.

“One round of eight” Jungkook ordered immediately.

“It was so nice coming with us after all” Namjoon said, side hugging her. That caught Nefeli by surprise. But hugged him back anyways. Cuddles and hugs are her number one favorite thing in this universe.

“I’ll just have only one, I don’t like alcohol,” Nefeli said as her chubby cheek was pressed on Tae’s torso, afraid of being drunk, gaining some chuckles and giggles from the band.

“As you wish, girly” Hoseok joked, making her smile widely and blush at the nickname.

“Here we are,” Jungkook said excitedly, bringing the shots with him, making the rest of them cheer, along with the young girl.

“Okay on count on three,” Jin said as everyone was holding his glass. “Oneeeee” he started counting “Twooooo” he continued, everyone ready to drink “Three!” he yelled and drunk and laughed.

“More more more more!” Yoongi commended, hitting his glass on the table they were at, everyone nodding in agreement, except Nefeli.

“Oh c’mon Nef… Just one more!” Jimin pleaded while the six others were giving her puppy dog eyes. She giggles too at the boys’ childless. She didn’t want to destroy the atmosphere tho, so she finally agreed “Fiiiiiiiine, but only one!” she said, holding the new glass of vodka.

 One shot became two

 Two became three

 Three became five

 Five became eight

 Eight became twelve

 And soon she was drunk!! Just what she didn’t want to.

She was dancing and laughing with nothing, just by herself. And she was saying incomprehensible things. Alcohol had a bad effect on her, after all, she wasn’t used to drinking.

The seven singers had noticed that and they were trying to stop her, unsuccessfully. At first, they were laughing at her deeds, but then, when things started getting worse, they were trying her best to calm her down. Everyone was expecting Yoongi to drink too much, but no! It was her.

“Slow down girl, you’re gonna pass out!” Jimin tried to grab the glass of her hand, but it was useless. She had an iron grip on it.

“Noooo I’m *hic* okayyyy, look!” she dragged out the words, before she made a turn, around herself. However, she fell onto Namjoon, bursting out in laughter, only she knows why. Fortunately for her, Namjoon was quick and he caught her before she could reach the floor, face down.

The leader looked at his friends like he was saying ‘we should do something’ and they all agreed while her giggles were hitting their ears, still on Joon’s arms.

“I think we should get going” Jimin announced to the girl out of blue after his mental conversation with the band.

She shook her head furiously, her mood changing immediately and she was really close to tears now. “Noooo, I don’t wannaaaaa goo” she complained, giving them her best puppy dog eyes. She hugged the table, refusing to let it. Jin took a step closer to her and tried to wrap his arms around her waist to pull her.

As he did that she did something unexpected; she flinched away and giggled harder, making the boys look at her confused.

“Hehey! Stohohop!” she yelled, glaring both smiling at the eldest. Jin and Joon just chuckled, realizing what the girl was talking about in contrast with the five who seemed to be more confused than before. “You know I’m deadly ticklish!” she continued, bringing grins to their faces as soon as she said that. It was clear that she couldn’t understand who she was talking to so she kept going “You know, I actually love when people making me laugh with that! It’s super fun!” they all awed at her confession.

“Oh really? Whyyyyyy?” Jungkook played with her drunk self. “Because I like laughing and when they tickle me I laugh and it’s so nice to laugh and I like it and it’s good and my mind goes whoooooo and I don’t think of anything bad and sad” she laughed so much at herself, making the band laugh along with her.

Suddenly her expression changed and became serious “But don’t tell the boys! It’s too embarrassing!” the boys laughed and all nodded in agreement. “Sure, girl” Taehyung joked around.

All of sudden, she started looking around like she was in the space and she could walk properly. Her arms were reaching whatever they could and her head was too dizzy. She was feeling her stomach spinning right round like a washing machine and her legs couldn’t stand her anymore. Her mouth was numb and her breath was sharp.

“What’s happening?!” asked Jin worried, trying to catch her arms.

“She’s just too drunk” Yoongi explained, having been in her position too many times so he knew what she was doing and how she was feeling. “Just give her some seconds”

Jin, Hoseok, and Jimin were trying to hold her now still, Jungkook, Namjoon, and Taehyung was trying to make space for them and watch their moves so that they could help if it was needed and Yoongi was just sitting there doing nothing but watch. “Some seconds to what?” asked a very worried Hoseok. “I don’t feel well…” Nefeli said out of blue, getting them all by surprise. “Oh Jinnie I didn’t know you had a twin brother, neither for you shortie” Jimin’s jaw dropped while the others were trying to hold back their laughter unsuccessfully. “I think- I think I need to-” she started.

“3, 2, 1…” Yoongi counted under his breath. And then BLACK. She fell onto the floor, making everyone in the building look in their direction.

The band was shocked! Was it a good idea to invite her with them? What were they going to do with her? Was that their fault? They were the ones who were insisted on more shots and yet they were the only ones who were not drunk. Guilt was filling them, and at the same time, the boys didn’t know what to do.

The crowd had circled the eight young adults, watching the scene. However, no one made a move to help the poor singers. A glare from Yoongi tho, made all the people look away and follow separate ways in the club, holding their drinks.

“I think we should keep her home” Namjoon finally said. He may be the clumsiest, but his ideas were always the bests and the boys were following each and every word he was saying.

Jungkook picked her bridal style, letting her long curly hair fall behind his arm, leading to the car. Hoseok left some money on the table and followed him, as the other five members were already in the car. Namjoon was at the driver’s seat, next to Yoongi. Jimin, Taehyung, and Jin were behind them and Jungkook, Hoseok, and the girl would be sitting in the third seat.

Jungkook set her on the seat and Namjoon start the car. Yoongi was used to drunk people, but Jin, Jungkook, Taehyung, Jimin, Hoseok, and Namjoon weren’t.

They were all super silent during the ride and their thoughts were complicated. How did they managed to get under their protection a random girl? Even if that protection is for only one night. Yes, they were insisting to meet her and know her better, but they could never imagine things turning like that. But they were feeling guiltier than under pressure.

As they parked at the parking lot and got inside, they decided to let her sleep on the couch. They all needed a good rest so as Nefeli. And their couch was huge, in contrast with her who was too short.

Hoseok grabbed a duvet for her. The house was too cold. Jungkook, who was holding her bridal style once more, set her on the sofa softly and Jimin covered her tiny body with the duvet, before they all headed to their rooms, saying goodnight whispery.

   “Ughhh, my heeaad…!!” Nefeli complained as she opened her eyes. The boys were already awake and chitty chatting in the dining room when they all turned their heads towards her.

Her head felt like someone was hitting it with a hammer, her eyes were red and puffy, and her stomach was spinning right round. Her hair was a mess, she couldn’t feel her legs and she was still wearing the same clothes she was wearing the day before.

As the eyes scanned the room, she immediately understood she wasn’t at the motel she was staying at and shoot up from where she was laying. Well… She tried to… She fell back on the couch, realizing she was too dizzy to stand up.

As soon as she noticed the boys tho, she got panicked, getting she was at some strangers’ house, not knowing why. “Why am I here?” she asked, a little harshly for her normal talking”

“Good morning to you too Nef,” Tae said, making her feel bad straight away. However, she still needed some answers so replaced that feeling with anxiety.

The seven were all sitting there, watching her moves, which made her feel awkward and yet more nervous. Yoongi wasn’t smiling too much to her, when was he? And as for the rest of them, they were all giving Nefeli some warm smiles, which made the young girl return the smile.

“You were too drunk to let you go just like that, so we decided to bring you here” Namjoon kindly explained. That didn’t help the matter…

However, Hoseok was more awake than his leader so he caught what she was thinking. “You can leave whenever you want, you’re not forcing you to stay forever” he chuckled to lighten up the mood and gained some surprised yet weird looks.

“I think that’s obvious” Jimin spoke up. Nefeli just nodded.

As soon as Nefeli heard these sentences, she felt guilt rising inside her. These boys took care of her when she couldn’t take care of herself, and then she got scared of them. How could she think like that? It wasn’t fair for what they did for her. However she didn’t let those feelings showed up on her face, she didn’t want the seven men watching her like that.

There was a comfortable silence as Nefeli leaned again at the couch, watching the room better, noticing it was decorated both cutely and boyish. It was a brown-pastel color, with a wooden floor, and a fan on the ceiling, at the same color. The kitchen, the living room, and the dining room were one and behind the table, there was a huge glazing. The apartment wasn’t too big, but she could see ten doors. Maybe eight bedrooms and two bathrooms. ‘How did they managed to fit all them in such a small house’ she thought.

The smell of fresh coffee hit her nose which made her broke out of her thoughts. Jin had prepared a mug for her and set it on the table where they were all sitting. It was a nice smell. She traveled her back in time when she and her mum were sitting on their balcony, Nefeli drinking chamomile and her mum coffee.

She made a last effort to stand up and walk but failed one more time. “Ughhh” she complained, holding her head, earning some chuckles from the boys.

“Wanna come help?” Namjoon asked kindly, offering a hand to help her stand up and she happily accepted it. He passed an arm around her back and with his free hand he held her arm and lightly pulled her on, walking her to the table and sitting her between him and Jin, in front of her mug.

“How was your sleep, baby girl?” Hoseok questioned her. ‘Babygirl? Am I still drunk’ she asked herself, hearing the nickname. ‘It was cute tho’ she felt a little more comfortable, so she nodded and gave a soft smile.

“Thank you so much,” Nefeli said before she took a sip of her coffee, feeling better straight away. However, they all seemed confused about what she said. “About what?” Jimin asked her. “About bringing me in and taking care of me when I wasn’t able to do it for me” being shy she was, she didn’t dare to look at them.

“No need to thank us,” Yoongi said, smiling at her too. Just then a box of painkillers inside a huge hand appeared in front of her mug.

“Those should do for your headache” Taehyung assured the young girl, placing the box and a glass of water beside the dirty pink mug full of sweet coffee. She thanked him and opened the box to take the magic pill which will solve her problem.

She swallowed the water with the painkiller and felt immediately better. The hammer stopped and the washing machine in her stomach was spinning softer.

“Sooo” Jungkook started. “Wanna stay for lunch?” he suggested. Now all the eyes were on her. But instead of feeling comfortable, she nodded straight away. She wanted to spend some more time with them. After all, they had proved that they are not dangerous and that they were kind and friendly, so why not? Also, she wanted to thank them for all the care they showed towards her.

“Of course!” she exclaimed “I’ll cook,” she said, a little too loud, which made her grab her head in pain and the boys grin.

“I’ll do it for you. You’re in our house and we must make you feel comfortable” Jin disagreed. “I’ll help you tho!” she made sure her tone was both imposing and sweet, so they won’t feel bad.

“Okay, so get up!” the eldest playfully commended, banging his hand on the table, making her groan in pain as her head felt like it had just been hit by a bell. “Jiiiin!” she complained, the boy immediately apologizing and pulling her. “C’mon, it’s 13:30’ already!”

“What?!” she exclaimed, still holding her head, turning it to look at the clock on the wall. “Okay fiiiiiine” she stood up, tiredly, following Jin in the kitchen, some steps away.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Half an hour had passed and the apartment was all filled with a delicious smell of Korean fried chicken and some fried rice tingling in everyone’s nose.

Laughter was all around the living room as the eight young teenagers were sitting on the couch, chatting, while eating what Jin and Nef had cooked in the kitchen. It turned out that the young girl was a fast learner when it comes to cooking.

“Last night was so good! And your songs are super amazing!” she said out of blue. The singers all grinned, satisfied with her having fun with them. At first, they thought she wouldn’t even show up at the club. Even though they didn’t care so must at all when they invited her, they lit up when they saw her.

Their songs were all written by them and the majority of them were written a long time ago. Due to their colleges, studies, and works, they were able to write too rarely, either lyrics or music.

“It was our pleasure” Jimin smiled at her.

“Did I do or say something too weird?” she innocently asked. Only if she knew… They looked at each other not knowing what to say. If they told her the truth, they would make her feel uncomfortable one more time. But it was her right to know what she did last night. It wasn’t too loyal of them to hide it. Jin and Namjoon were in the worst position tho. There were the first ones who learned about it and they promised her not to say anything to anyone.

“So?” she insisted, waiting for an answer impatiently. She immediately understood something was wrong and that she indeed had done something embarrassing.

“You were just too happy and you were dancing and laughing alone” Hoseok tried not to bring her in a bad mental position, bringing fun and nice memories to all of them and making all chuckle. Except of course the poor girl who was too drunk to remember a single thing.

“That’s so embarrassing…” she smiled nervously, pulling her long, black, sleeves to her fingertips and hiding her face with them.

Suddenly, a nice noise echoed in the room. She lifted her head and saw a nice, wooden guitar on Jimin’s lap. The melody tho was too familiar. It was a heart-melting song, which we're bringing images of her teenage life when she had had a hard time. Images of her idol, one of the biggest guitarists of all the time who owned that specific song with his band, images of her and her best friend singing that song, images of her group of friends doing their stuff in public without giving a damn about what people say or think about them, images from an age that passed irrevocably. Until those thoughts were cut off of the first lyric.

She's got a smile that it seems to me, Reminds me of childhood memories…

Jimin’s voice was ringing in her ears like paradise. She hadn’t had listened to that song for a long time and now it felt like she was a teenager again, with all those amazing memories and moments being brought back to life in the most amazing way!

And soon, when Jin, Jungkook, and Taehyung added their voices it was even better!

I’d hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain…

She was moving with the rhythm, humming the melody. Namjoon, Yoongi was sitting on the couch taking videos of the moment, smiling, while Hoseok decided to join the singing club.

And that’s how their day passed. With songs, jokes, and laughter. Sitting on the couch, talking about everything and nothing, with small breaks for some singing.

Now, Nefeli was lying, her back against Jungkook’s side, thinking about what she would do and listening to the boys’ chat.

‘I think I should get going’ it was the first thing that came to her mind. She didn’t want to bother them… ‘But I’m having fun… Plus I don’t know how to get to the motel…’ Nefeli changed her mind.

However, what made her break out of her imagination was a simple poke on her ribs.

She flinched and squirm around, only to see Jungkook lightly smirking at her, not showing his (A/N cute) bunny teeth.

“What?” she asked the grinning boy. What she got as a reply? Another poke. She squirmed, even more, not knowing what Jungkook was trying to do. “What are you doing?” Now all the eyes were on them. The boys caught were their youngest friend was doing. Jin and Namjoon glared at him, Hoseok was grinning widely, Yoongi was just watching (everyone could see a hint of amusing in his eyes tho…) and Jimin and Taehyung were smiling fondly.

Nefeli knew them for only some hours but yet she was feeling close with them. That was a part of her character, when people were treating her like a piece of glass and sweetly, they had automatically win her and her heart.  And that happened with those seven; they had won the girl. She was feeling close and she could be herself with them. Playful, sad, happy… Whatever she felt…

“You woke the toddler inside him, kiddo” Namjoon noticed mockingly, earning some wider grins and smiles from his bandmates and a giggle from her.

Now, Jungkook was slowly putting her in a playful mood. Even if she didn’t know that they knew about her ‘guilty pleasure’, she wished deep inside they could tickle her.

“I’m not doing anything!” the bunny-tooth boy said innocently, jabbing her some more, making her back away, a stupid grin on her face as she was trying to swallow her giggles.

No one made a move to help her, enjoying the fun scene. As she was backing away, Jungkook following her movements, she reached the arm of the couch. Her playful mood was 126% on, like the boys’ mood. So she did the only thing she could; she got up and ran, followed by Jungkook.

“Get her!” the young singer yelled to his friends, and they did as he said. Unfortunately for her, she passed by Taehyung, who grabbed her legs and throw her over his shoulder with ease. Leading her back to the couch, she begs for letting her go mixed with her giggles were all around the room, making the boys laugh under their breaths.

Nefeli slapped his back multiple times, trying to get him to put her down, which did literally nothing. She was hanging over his shoulder, giggling her heart off. Taehyung lay her on the couch, pinning her arms above her head with only one hand, everyone circling the pair. Hoseok was facing her feet, Namjoon and Yoongi her knees and thighs, the Jin and Jungkook her sides and ribs, Jimin her neck and Tae her armpits.

The only thing which was escaping her mouth was a waterfall of small shyly giggles and some small breaths in-between them. She knew what they were up to, she didn’t know why, but she was enjoying every second of it. She didn’t want to admit it tho as she still wasn’t aware that they knew about her little secret.

“Look at you, all red” Tae teased, poking her armpit, making her flinch and laugh harder, the band laugh along with her. Soon enough, her laugh grew an octave when Taehyung dragged zillions of times his finger from her elbow to her armpit, its speed getting faster by every second, which drove her insane.

As things couldn’t get any worse, some pokes were added on her sides by Jungkook on the left and Jin on the left; one of her two worst spots. “Aaaha” she screamed as a reflex, making the guys smirk wider. “Soft spot?” teased Namjoon who was now digging under her knees, making Nefeli kick her legs.

However, when Taehyung decided to sit on her arms she was unable to move an inch. Electric shots run up her body when she felt someone play with the very middle of her sole. Hoseok. “Nohohohohoho” she giggled, trying to get free, which turned out it wasn’t easy. That was until Yoongi and Jimin decided they wanted to join the fun with Yoongi squeezing her thighs and Jimin fluttering his fingers around her neck, satisfied when he found a sensitive spot on the crook of her neck. “PLEAHAHAHSE!” she pleaded, as she was attacked to all her sensitive body.

Jin out of blue sat on her waist, smirking down at her as he bends down on her ribs’ level. Scribbling all over them Jin brought to the surface some of her loudest laughs and shrieks he could. “JIHIHIHIHIN NOOOHOHO” she yelled as his finger slipped in a space between her lowest and second-lowest rib.

“Hey, do you remember that song… How was it going…?” Hoseok innocently asked, playing with her toes like piano, earing some childish-like giggles from her. “HOSEOHOHOK!” she cried, wiggling her toes like crazy, trying to stop the torturous fingers. “Aish, this piano is so noisy!” the rapper teased, not stopping his assault.

Jungkook, that evil little boy, was now pinching her sides with his thumb and index finger, as squeaks were leaving her mouth every time, mixed with the hard laugh from the rest tickling. “One for me” he said pinching near her hips, earning a squeal. “One for Jinnieeee” he continued, pinching near her ribs, the squeals getting louder. “One for Yoongiiii” he sank, pinching in the middle of her sides, making her scream more than before. The young boys knew he had hit the jackpot with that spot, so he just continued with the pinches and clawing there, while he was counting all the members, five times each of them. “JUNGKOOHOHOHOHAHAHAHA!”

They had get her for sure and were rough from the start. That didn’t seem to annoy her tho. She was enjoying it so much. She had some centuries to laugh like that and she needed it.

“Oh-huh… Looks like someone’s afraid of crabs!” he said, as his friends laughed at his comment.

Just then Jimin had the most evil but at the same time a good idea he could think. “Hey Nef you like raspberries?” he asked innocently. Her eyes would widen if they could, as he bent down and nuzzled his nose in her neck. “No no no no nooOOHOHO JIMIHIHIN!” her laughs were all around the room. Smiles were growing bigger on their faces as they were watching the girl smile and laugh like that. It was so nice making sure they weren’t scaring her. If they wanted to be honest, they were into tickling too, just like her. However, only those seven men knew about each other’s guilty pleasure and they were only using it on each other too. They didn’t know if people were okay with that. But when they found out about Nef thinking the same about it, they knew they were gonna give a try. And they didn’t regret that…

“Oh no, look two spiders!” the eldest mocked, pointing at his fingers. “They’re coming towards your belly, they spiders are gonna get ya!” he played with the laughing girl underneath him. When the spiders- sorry, fingers, came in contact with her skin, they run wherever they could. “STOOHOHOHAHAHAHP!” she pleaded with watering eyes, trying to shake her head from side to side, unable to do it tho, due to Jimin’s head blowing raspberries and nuzzling at the crook of her neck.

Namjoon’s fingers were squeezing her kneecaps with difficulty. Nef was jerking and kicking her legs so much that he couldn’t even catch them at times. So he decided to go back behind her knees, but this time he had something in his mind. He got out of his pocket a big feather and dragged it at the spot, making the poor girl arch her back. Jin then got the opportunity to blow a raspberry on her ribs, and Nefeli collapsing her torso back to the couch and wiggling. “Ah, a lil worm is trying to escape!” the eldest mocked, his hot breath tickling her ribs more.

Yoongi tho, who had sat on her too, had a hard time with her thighs. As she wasn’t too sensitive there, the rapper couldn’t find a nice spot on them. However, when he reached her inner thighs, he knew he had a sweet spot to play for a looooong time. He was scratching and pinching and digging there, making the girl underneath them rocking her hips and laughing harder and harder.

“NOHOHOHAHAHAHA!” she couldn’t do much more than wiggle her torso and arch her back. She was starting to get exhausted and no one could blame her for that. They were in that position for only 15 mins but still, it was like hell. Well… In a good way.

The tears had no stop on her eyes and the smile on her face wasn’t leaving its place. It couldn’t anyways. The tickling was never something she could resist and her ticklishness wasn’t something she could hide from anyone. And she thought she could take it more until-

“NOOOOHOHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAT THAHAHAHAHAHAT!” she must have woken up the dead people from their graves with her scream when a hairbrush simply touched her sole. Immediately all the tickles stopped and the eyes were on her panting self. Nefeli’s breathing was heavy and her cheeks were redder than a cherry. Her eyes closed and she wasn’t moving.

“Are you okay sweetheart? Did we go too harsh?” asked a very worried Jimin. He was feeling bad and could say that the rest of them too. They never wanted to scare her or make her uncomfortable with them.

“Nohoho I’m *cough* good. I just haven’t experiehehence something like thahat before and I was surprihihised by the hairbrush” she giggled when she calmed down, ghost tickles still on her body. Relief formed on everyone’s faces and some sighs could be heard around the exhausted girl.

“We’re sorry Nef,” Jungkook said, rubbing her palm with his thumb, helping her relax.

“Yeah, we know you like it so-” Taehyung started but when all the eyes -including Nef’s- fell on him he stopped, aware of the stupid move he had just done.

Nefeli’s eyes widened and if her face could turn redder, it would do. The secret was out and no one could do something about that. She glared at Namjoon and Jin who shot their hands up in surrender saying in unison “It wasn’t us!”

“Then?” she asked, folding her arms in front of her chest as she sat up. She was feeling so embarrassed and now distant towards them.

“Y-Yesterday, when you were drunk you told us about that and no one managed to stop you” Namjoon explained, looking down. “Also we like it too and we thought it would be a nice way to break the ice” Yoongi continued. Nefeli had nothing to say. She was just blushing more and more and a shy grin appeared on her face.

“We’re sorry, we thought you’ll like it… If you wanna go then you can, we didn’t want to make you feel uncomfortable” Hoseok apologized and everyone started backing away and sitting up from the couch.

‘Nononononononoo’ Nef mentally cursed herself for letting that happen. She didn’t want that, she wanted more fun. She wanted more time with them. She wanted more laughter. She wanted more… “Um…” she started and the boys turned their heads at her. However, she was just too shy to ask. Just the idea of the word was making her flustered, red, and… A strange knot was making its appearance every time in her stomach. Her smile would turn shyly and her eyes would shine and not even dare to look at something else than her feet. “Yeah?”

“I-It’s um…” Nefeli started, not knowing how to tho. The band circled and towered her, looking at her with wide eyes, waiting for an answer. She took a deep breath and finally said “It was okay, it um… I didn’t feel uncomfortable…”

All the faces lit up and relief filled everyone’s heart. They smiled at the shy girl in front of them, Jin sitting beside her. The eldest threw his arm around her body and hugged her. The hug was warm and calming, making Nefeli melt in it and hug him back.

“So? We can continue?” Jungkook broke the nice moment, making the hugging duo look up at him and the girl flush redder. With all her might she brought her body closer to the young many next to her and lightly nodded “B-But n-not all together…” the words escaped her mouth like a river, surprising everyone.

They discussed with their eyes, confusing her. Hoseok and Jungkook took a step towards the girl after that and Jin lied her down, leaving her with the two boys. The youngest sat on her waist pinning her arms above her head with one hand, her childish-like giggles filling the room, the boys smirked. Hoseok sat again where he was, facing her feet. She was feeling nice with the whole situation and she was giggling like a toddler from anticipation.

“Now you have calmed down I think I shall continue what I started,” Hoseok said before he scribbled the hairbrush all over her soles, bringing a whole new waterfall of hysterical laughter to the surface. “NOHOHOHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA” A huge grin appeared on everyone’s face and they all get comfortable, enjoying the view of the laughing girl. He, OF COURSE, had to start with one of her two worsts spots…

“That must tickle a lot” teased Jimin, making the things much worse for Nef. One thing the young girl hated (OBVIOUSLY loved) was being teased. She didn’t know why but she did and it was always nice and fun.

The boy continued his assault, not caring if he was currently tickling a screaming girl. Jungkook was still sitting on her, looking at her red face, as she was frantically shaking her head from side to side. Her curls were moving with her head, becoming messier.

“Aww… Is our poor girl too ticklish to stand a lil hairbrush?” Hoseok scribbled faster the thing on her feet. “Ow ow ow ow!” she yelled, the scribbling becoming softer. “Sorry baby girl” if she could smile more, she would to the nickname.

Just then, the younger singer pulled up her hoodie and bent down near her face. “I wanna eat some ribs, how many can you gimme?” he smirked, immediately bringing his fingers in the first pair of ribs, rubbing his index ones on the bones. Nefeli arched her back, feeling her nerves shake in her body. “Oneeeee… Twooooo… Threeeee…” he counted, slowly and torturous, still rubbing the bones back and forth. The next number, the next bone. Losing the turn now and then, starting from the beginning, driving Nef crazy.

“AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA” the hysterics were poured out of her mouth without stopping. Taehyung, Jin, Namjoon, Yoongi, and Jimin were watching amused from the other corner of the room.

“Aaaand tweeeelve…” Jungkook counted, finally setting her poor ribs free. Hoseok was now using his blunt nails to scratch right below her curled toes. Her knees and feet were shaking, as she was trying to avoid the feeling, unsuccessfully.

“Coochie coochie coo,” Hoseok said near her feet, his hot breath not helping the matter. He was alternated between playing with her toes and digging in the back of her knees, Nefeli going mad.

“What’s the matter, sweetie? What’s so funny?” Taehyung innocently asked. If Nefeli could glare at him, she would, but she couldn’t. She was busy laughing and getting tickled. Hoseok made sure he had hit every sensitive spot on and behind her knees, making were kick her legs.

“I think it’s time to eat,” Jungkook said, as he bent more. He opened his mouth ready to touch the spot, making Nef mentally wide her eyes. “DOHAHAHAHAHAHAN’T!” she cried inside her laugher.

“Don’t what Nef?”

“DOHOHAHAHAHA IHAHAHAHAHIHIT!”

She fell…

“As you wish” he teased, nibbling with his sharp, bunny teeth all over her right ribs. They were running up and down, touching every bone they could and every time his mouth would close, they would end up on her sixth and most ticklish rib.

As if things couldn’t get any worse, Jungkook started poking her side, earning a wild scream from her “AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA”

Worst spot pt.2…

All the boys smirked wider and continued enjoying the view. Not that Nefeli wasn’t. In fact, she was having so much fun and she was the one who was enjoying the most.

“Ohhh soft spot I see,” Hoseok said, running his index and middle finger up and down her foot. Why was it necessary to be hit to her most sensitive spots at once?! The rapper’s fingers felt like it was a billion tiny bugs running up and down in the most torturous, yet enjoyable way. Her toes had curled up and her feet were shaking right and left.

Jungkook on the other hand was squeezing her sides furiously, electric shots hitting her body with every squeeze. She couldn’t do something more than lay here and take it. She was so exhausted and red. And then he remembered something…

“Ah, I almost forgot your favorite,” he said as then, without warning he blew an abnormally ticklish raspberry just above her belly button. “NAHAHAHAHAHAT AGAIHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAN” Nefeli couldn’t control the waterfall coming out of her bunny-tooth mouth. Things got worse when he blew on her sides yet again, bringing hot and salty tears out of her mouth

As the tickling was going on, Jin had got out his phone and he was recording the whole scene. The truth is it was a very nice and funny scene. They were all clearly loved it.

However, when her laughter fell silent, they all sensed she had had enough. Her face could tell. Her mouth had turned a shape which was yelling it wasn’t enjoyable anymore and her breathing was hard and shaky.

Jungkook and Hoseok creased their tickling and they finally stopped, letting her catch her breath. They even rubbed her spots, helping the ghost-tickles disappear and her relax more. Jungkook came down from above her and cuddled with her, as the rest of the bad circled them.

“Are you alright love?” Jin asked sweetly, stroking her curls. She nodded, smiling softly and leaned more into the boy behind her.

“I hope we didn’t go too harsh on ya,” Yoongi said, sitting on the floor below Nef.

“No, it was good” she admitted, hiding her face, making everyone chuckle. She didn’t want to say that she loved it…

After that day, Nef was every day with them. Having fun, laughing, with some tickling and mostly love and care. They became best friends and the boys welcomed her in their group like she was belonging to it since forever.

It also turned out that the house she was staying at, was just a few meters away from the boys’ and they were all glad about it.

Who could imagine that a walk in the park would turn out so good?

Who could imagine that a stranger would become their new best friend?

Who could imagine that a new girl would fit so well in a new town?
