l&r shua and specially studio choom l&r shua... i still have no idea how i survived that, also it gave us blue hair cheol too <3 ... him sleeveless with blue hair, there are so many happy things just from this cb jdjsksskks i adore it.
wonshua fr were something else during l&r... omg after school, I'm guessing you've been into kpop way before me. anytime any clip from 17tv pops up i'm just ' they're so smol here they're so cute ' but also most of the time i have no context as well it's djjdsjskks. idk why but svt club is still something i find myself watching again i really liked its concept and them talking and sharing their thoughts it's very simple but also heart-warming.
is it creepy if i say i kind of did sghjkk i actually got to know you are interested in got7 recently when i ended up clicking the links in your bio. i swear im not a weird stalker jdjeekke i've been following your got7 blog way before than this one djdjdjjddj i only found this svt one recently after i decided to completely move back to tumblr and started following svt accs. I didn't know both blogs were you for a long time jddjdkd i apologize if it does seem lil creepy JDJDKSKSLS
jinyoung and mark are my biases, my ults actually <3 and yess i'm keeping up w/ their solo projects even more than before 😭 it's so jdjdkdkd. 2017 was the year i started listening to kpop and around that time or lil later i came across ' you are ' this song is so dear to me i loved it in first listen, its lyrics i love its lyrics sm i made everyone i know listen to it dhjddk yet i didn't dive in deeper bc i was caught up with other group at that time but slowly I started watching their content from 2018. it's like got7's been w/ me since the start & at the same time not </3 but look, lullaby and more importantly spinning top came and everything changed with that album it's so goood from then i started keeping up with their music and check their cbs. i knew jype was meh even when i didn't stan them but i didn't know to what extent, i only got to know after 2019. so far it's all so good and i hope it stays like that. all of their different companies treat and promote them nicely 🥺.
with svt it was instant love i got to know abt them during march 2019 ig, their songs grew on me so fast and boom by the time may came i was a carat, with got7 it was gradual love, it increased lil by lil it's nice but i do wish i could've stanned them earlier. the only cb experience as an official birdie i have is nbtm and last piece 😭 anyway both of these groups are very dear to me not just musically but emotionally too. i love them very much 😔.
also omg those are some of the great artists!! i honestly have no idea how khh and krnb are i mostly listen to kpop and kbands more. i actually listen to a lot of artists but regularly only zayn, svt, got7, the rose (ik we're talking abt kpop but i can't leave zayn out of this djdjdkdk he's the first ever artist i have stanned <3)
also onewe, n.flying, a.c.e, gaho ( i love his voice <3) woodz, day6. yk when you want new music but also something which you'd instantly enjoy otherwise you don't want new music sghjk, when i feel like this i just go to any of their discography. also special mention to hoppipolla and lucy bc they always bring something new to the table i love them for it. i love these artists but honestly i listen to them when i am in mood. i listen to gotsvt and zayn the most at the end of the day. goodnight <3 i love talking to you too 🥺🥺🥺 also feel free to answer late when you're free. hoping i made sense in this one and answered everything bc i am too sleepy rn fjdjkd - 🪂
BLUE HAIRED COUPSIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WITH THE RIPPED ARMS!!!!!!!!!!!1
iconique if u ask me <3 i heard lnr was indeed a good era for everyone!! wasn't it also cheol's first cb after his break? y'all must've had Fun fun
yes i have 😭 i grew up w koreans so... i guess that's also an influence. i got into kpop on my own volition during 4th grade though, so that's prob 2009/10??? GOD I FEEL SO ANCIENT RN!!!! honestly i still dk what 17tv was about i feel like we were just watching streams of some boys w no context as well 😭 AND YES OMG I GET THAT!! svt club is super chill and it's a great way of learning more abt the members!
JKDFJKKJDFFDKJ HELP!!!!!!!!!!! WAIT OH MY GOD YOU WERE IN MY G7 BLOG 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 IM SO EMBARRASSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 as i've mentioned last time, got7 got me back into kpop and consequently tumblr 😭😭😭 i 'left' tumblr too and was just checking in occasionally, so when i made that g7 sideblog i was WAY behind the times and my first edits were so fucking- 😭 everything about me then was also so performative idk why i felt the pressure to be in on the club 😭 why were you not annoyed with me then 😭 i'd block me if i saw me on the dash KJFKJFDKJDF thank god i got over it though (or should i be.. i'm a menace on the dash now <3 KJDKKJDFKJF) AND NOOO OMG it's not creepy at all. i put those links in for people to see them after all!! and i'm actually kind of honored you followed me even w/o knowing its me <3 i feel like i've passed the vibe check JJFDKJKJFD do you also follow my main 👀 i rmb someone greeting me here on my bday who said the exact same thing you did 😭
U LIKE OLD MAN JINYOUNG 😭😭😭 ok that makes sense w ur svt bias line tbh <3 i like jinyoung a lot too he's such a smug pain in the ass <3 ALSO MORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i l*ve mark oh my god i- i know i keep saying this... but ur taste <3 AND YOU ARE 😭😭 THE ERAS YOU DISCOVER/GET INTO GROUPS ARE SOOOO GOOD </3 you are was so meaningful to them, and i'm still so incredibly proud of them for this regardless of commercial success. also what group were u into that time omg 👀 I ALSO GOT INTO THEM DURING SPINNING TOP ERA KJFDKJFDKJFJKFDJKFD WHY ARE WE SO SIMILAR!! u seem to like jaebeom's songs a lot <3 AND MS LULLABY!!! oh my god that's my favorite era <3 and yeah, so true bestie, i couldn't be happier for them they're doing FAR better than they have ever had compared to when they were in that shitty company. i'm still so amazed how they pulled all of this off though. jaebeom's must've went thru loads of papework he was prob so determined to show that old man what they are capable of FDJKDFJKD
NAURRR OMG IT'S SO CUTE HOW U PUT IT THAT WAY!! and i'm sure you'll get to experience more cbs with the 7 <3 they were already hinting at it yesterday on twt JKFDJKJKFD
OHHH THAT'S COOL!!! i haven't had a chance to listen much to kbands now, and if u ask me abt them the first ones that come to mind are ft island and cnblue bc im a kpop hag 😭 OH WAIT MAYBE DAY6 for the new ones?? my friends have also been recommending n.flying, the rose, and onewe to me. which bands do you listen to? and zayn??????? <3 ur so right abt that DFKJKJDFFDKJFD also omg go listen to khh they changed my life <3 i can give u a playlist if u'd like!! <3

about me tag;
tagged by: @passionfruithyuck ( thank you so much for the tag love ❤️ this was super fun to do ^^ )
1. It’s your birthday! What did you ask for and did you receive it?
I don’t really have a lot of things I want or need tbh... I didn’t get any physical gifts for my birthday but I did get to go eat at a restaurant I liked so that was cool.
2. What was the last song or album you listened to?
Hmm, the last song I listened to was Kick It by NCT 127!
3. What is your go to snack when you’re hungry or bored?
I don’t snack a lot but when I do, I like to get bread >< and just slather it with peanut butter, kaya or jam! toasting it sometimes makes it SO MUCH better
4. What is your morning routine?
Ok right now, i’m living like a bum since uni doesn't start until early august so i wake up at 8am ( my phone is my alarm ) but i rarely REALLY wake up at 8am so i either go back to sleep until 10am latest or lounge in bed with my phone for a bit ( and by a bit i mean an hour or so ). I go to brush my teeth and wash my face then i’ll go get breakfast! I must drink a glass of water every morning before i eat, it’s a routine by now. I usually don’t eat breakfast if i wake up too late ( like maybe 9:45am ) or i’d just eat one slice of bread as compared to two. I like to walk around and just keep standing for about an hour to aid digestion ( i’m weird i know ) and then i’ll settle down in the living room with my laptop and do whatever I want for the day!
5. What mythical/cryptid creature would you be?
A dragon for sure.
6. How do you interact with someone that you don’t like?
i usually ignore them, just simply don’t talk to them. I rarely find ppl i don’t like though and i usually try my best to like people or give them a chance so if i don’t like you then... I guess i REALLY don’t like you.
7. How do you define a toxic person?
hmm to me, it’s someone who’s just fake. someone who acts all nice and friendly in front of you but actually hates or someone who only talks to you when you’ve got something they want and will ignore you in a heartbeat once they’ve taken advantage of you.
8. Have you ever been to a concert or fanmeet type of event? If not, would you want to?
I have! But it’s not a kpop concert, it’s a taiwanese singer’s concert. Show Luo, has anyone heard of him? I’d love love love to go to a tbz or nct concert and fanmeet!! it’d mean the world to me to be able to see them in real life.
9. Do you believe in astrology? Why or why not?
Yes, to a certain extent. I believe in the personality description part but not when it comes to predicting events because i think ultimately what happens is caused by your own actions rather than astrological events.
10. If you had only one sense (hearing, touch, sight, etc.), which would you want?
Sight. For sure sight. I want to be able to see. I’m a very avid reader ( although i could learn braille but idk ) and i’m a visual learner so yes, sight.
11. Who is your favourite celebrity or idol?
um i’d have to say the boyz’s juyeon... he’s so incredibly talented and his blankness and clueless/innocent personality just makes me love him more if that’s still possible ><
12. If you could talk to your favourite celebrity(s) for a limited time, what would you tell them?
I probably wouldn’t even be able to get a single word out because of how nervous i am but i’d tell juyeon to keep working hard, never give up and that deobis will always have tbz’s back. we can see that they’re working very hard and we are extremely proud and grateful for them for that. i would also say that he’s super inspiring to me and i greatly admire his dancing, being a dancer myself. he’s not just an idol i may have a gigantic crush on but also a role model to me ^^
13. I’m taking you out on a date and it’s your choice. Where are we going and what are we going to do?
i’m a boring person so we’d go watch movies because i love movies and then we’d go get food and maybe bubble tea after, just walking around the city and talking ^^ either that or we’ll go to an amusement park!
14. Do you like sweet or savory foods?
normally savoury but these days i’ve been feeling sweet more often, not sure why
15. Do you have any band merchandise or merchandise from any of your favorite artists? If so, what?
I actually don’t lmao... I really want to buy a tbz album eventually though!
tagging: @ihearttbz @minfuwa @fluffytbz @renjunwrites @hyuckgasm @in-my-neofeelings @badwithten @jopping-to-my-kpop @moondustaeil @neo-cult-ure @127vevo @nzeeten @mae-gi-writes @tbzhours @atbzkingdom @chaoticdeobi @jenocakes @sankyeom @byunbaekby + anyone who wants to do this ^^ just say i tagged you!

hippity hoppity here goes the long ass rant about my cousin
for context - i was a kid when i started liking kpop, like 13-14 yrs old? i was still collecting plushies, reading magazines for young teens, enjoying some music and playing sims. yes, i may have had my emo episode back then with some heavy music too, and that never went well with my mum’s older sister and her heavily religious husband, but oh boi, the worst was my cousin. she is 6 yrs older than me and that was around the time she started picking out an university to go to, so the focus HAD to be on her, the important future student and her boyfriend and this and that... she was always going on about going to art school and she was really fucking talented so she had all chances to be a really great artist, getting married to her boyfriend, wanting a family and all her future, while i was just a middle school kid dressing in all black, who suddenly started enjoying some fun kpop song on their otherwise heavy metal/rock music playlist.
when she find out, she was GIVING ME HELL for it. do you remember 2013 kpop? adtoy by 2pm, ringa linga by gd & taeyang, gentleman by psy or fantastic baby by bigbang? i fucking loved those songs. i was a kid in a really bad place in life after moving 2 countries away from the place where i was born, from all my friends, my school, my life... listen, it’s 10 years hitting this year since my mother decided about moving and i’m still not over it, so just imagine, how bad i must’ve felt back then, when it wasn’t even a year after the move? i was a devastated little kid who found a little joy in some fun, jumpy kpop tones in contrast to the usual heavy music i was listening to usually (do you remember the oldest bring me the horizon songs, all the screaming and anger? think of it as my regular playlist, my mother hated it haha). i was never a diehard fan, never had posters of idols on my walls, i only have like 2 merch pieces (and those aren’t even original cuz we were poor and could never afford it, so i looked up the merch online and my mum had a similar thing done in a local, cheaper workshop for my birthday one time, please don’t judge me for that) and it was just music for me, as well as the english, american, japanese, polish and hungarian music was just music too.
and i got terrible shit for it from my cousin, who pretty much criticized everything about me: my clothes (we were poor, i was mostly dressing out of second hand shops and surprise - her hand-me-downs), my shitty phone (and old samsung model i got for my 9th or 10th bday), my taste in books (i really REALLY loved king’s books to which one of my classmates introduced me back then), my inability to perfectly speak the language (though i was raised in a bilingual household, the main language in my house was hungarian, and i was a stubborn kid who rarely ever wanted to speak polish at home, so when we moved i could barely speak the language, had to take extra classes every day in school for almost the entire first school year i spent here because i had to learn to write and speak properly), but the biggest shit i always got for kpop, that it’s garbage, that i don’t even understand it, it’s just shitty party music with extra steps... i resented her for that A LOT, which probably had smth to do with the age difference too, but hey, whatever. i always closed up when we visited them and my mum was understanding about it, she pretty much allowed me to just hang around the place and listen to my music, play on my phone or just read a book, and my aunt hated it - but it was at least peaceful, i occasionally got the kpop jab from my cousin which i shrugged off, but that was it... until one time i spoke up.
i can’t remember what it was about - but we were all having lunch and it was easter or christmas maybe, and at a certain point i got called out for something, maybe using my phone under the table? anyway, i spoke up about treating me like shit because i was already 15 by that and i had a big fucking mouth and no tolerance for their bullshit after listening to it for two years, which ended in my mother almost going into a shock after hearing my vicious remark, my aunt’s husband going into a raging fit and my aunt telling my mum that she’s a terrible mother and raised a terrible kid. we left after that and i didn’t return to them in the following years - i just heard from the grapevine that my cousin ended up dropping out of college because “it was just too tiring and too much”, broke up with her boyfriend and then was just sleeping around with some random dudes, and generally just misrailed her life and had to move back in with her parents who were devastated after all their hopes about my cousin went to hell.
i haven’t seen them for years - we sort of reconciled a few years later when my mother forced me to do it; my cousin probably forgot by then whatever shit she was giving me earlier and we hanged out a bit, caught up and shit... i’m pretty sure it was only because she was to get married to her boyfriend and wanted the whole family there? not important.
the boyfriend is a pretty awful person imo tbh - he has some nationalist tendencies, not once spoke up in a very homophobic and derogatory way about all kind of lgbtq+ people, which in the end resulted in me removing him from all my social medias, because miss me with that nationalism babe. anyway, they got married and moved into their own place and into the family spotlight again, while i finished school and then years after their wedding my mum announced very proudly that i finished school with good grades and got into university - which immediately stirred the shit in the old shit bucket our relations were. my own fucking aunt dared saying that i’ll never succeed in life and will drop out than her own daughter would because i’m not made for a successful life. she never said it to my face - said it to my mother, who gave up a job she loved just so she could send me half a country away from my home so i could study where i wanted. i mean, i have my own issues with my mother too but i can’t not admire her sacrifices she made for me - so that sort off hit it off again with me and i once again burned bridges with them when moving out 3 years ago. seen them maybe two times since then? i mean, i never tried reaching out to them - they only ever got some happy birthdays and merry christmases on facebook, because my mother insisted i do that. they never called or wrote back, not for my birthday, not for christmas, not for anything else. i only found out in the last few months that on that christmas 2 yrs ago, which i spent alone, they were asked by my mum to please invite me over at least for a coffee. they never even called and my mum was heartbroken over it, because she was literal thousands of kilometres away, working and counted on her sister to invite me... my mum’s friends, basically strangers, ended up inviting me over for a christmas dinner in the end. i spent a family holiday with people i’ve literally seen five times in my life and they were more than joyful to have me in their company and they even got me a present, while my technically closes family couldn’t even spare a phone call.
now i’m 23 and my cousin is closing on 30 - and she’s suddenly overcome with that kpop obsession she has, spamming both instagram and facebook with mv links, fantaken photos, band-related posts and news articles, all heart emojis and “OmG i LoVe ThEm” kind of bullshit captions, she’s intensely drooling over certain members she’s posting a lot about, i’m seeing at least 15 posts daily about her bad drawings of members of the band.... listen.... if an artist doesn’t practice for 7+ yrs, the skills they had just start to fade away even if they were really talented (trust me, i know it from my own experiences, i used to know how to draw, sing and play a few instruments when i was young but then i stopped practicing and now the most i can draw in a stickman, i can’t play any instruments for shit and i’m a low average in singing too), but she thinks she’s some motherfucking superstar of drawing portraits (trust me, shes NOT) and keeps spamming all those pics and posts and shit.... and just seeing that sort of brought the memories back, of her treating me like shit over a thing she’s now obsessed with and i’m just sitting here like.... gag.
i could absolutely understand being a fan and being a group stan but there is a certain limit after which being a fan turns into that gross, twisted thing. do you know all those memes that go along the lines of “i don’t hate kpop because of the music, i hate kpop over the r*tarded fans it has”? that’s a whole ass mood. i’m sure that everyone who’s at least interested in kpop heard of the insane psychofan part of the fanbase.... and she’s turning into it. she’s fucking drooling over some famous strangers while she’s like... 30. and has a husband. would it be so hard for her to “keep it in her pants”? i’m super NOT interested in seeing all that crazy fan shit she’s pulling and honestly she’s grossing me out and you know people like her are the reason i can’t even fucking enjoy kpop anymore the way i did earlier - because it’s being fucking pushed down my god damned throat every-fucking-where i look. just calm the very fuck down, please. behave like a god fucking damned adult.
#kush speaks#rant#personal#listen... im not gonna name the band#lets just say its not a rookie band so its not like shes a paedo drooling over literal children#its just mainly about the crazy fan behavior shes presenting#from what i know she started being a fan in january#and she went batshit crazy in like 3 months??? cuz ive been seeing those posts since march i think??#or april? smth like that#i earlier didnt pay much attention tbh#but now that were in lockdown she probs has way too much time on her hands#and shes spending it being a psychofan lol#and its just making me uncomfortable#REALLY uncomfortable#supporters of that behavior pls do not interact#cousin hate tag

I’ve been tagged by 3 diff people with 3 diff sets of questions (and then realized I tech didn’t have to answer all 3 but already did lol) so Imma do this all under 1 post to prevent spamming yo clean and sparkly dashs aight (but also because it’s super long). Thanks for tagging, these are always fun to do :D :D
Tagged by @ask-the-new-soul-pirates
What’s your favorite car? Both make and model? oh god I’m not very knowledgeable in cars... Teslas seems pretty darn dope tho, aesthetically and functionality wise. I also really like to think about my carbon footprint so any car that puts that into consideration is gr8. Aesthetic wise, I seem to really like how BMWs and Audis look x’D
Any dream house you may have? I think because I live in the Bay Area I gave up any hopes of ever owning a house and never thought about this LOL However, I do enjoy houses with a big kitchen (what a coincidence this is coming from a Sanji blog) and for the main bedrooms to be on a separate floor from the living room.
If you had 24 hours to live, what would you do? Well first I would panic the fk out because 1 day isn’t very long. Then I’d go stuff myself with all my favorite foods and go into a food coma and peace out just like that. (tbh idk I don’t like thinking about dying it’s scary)
Favorite cartoon? atm, Bob’s Burgers
What’s your typical genre of music you listen to? Kpop, trending music on the radio ..honestly I’m not too picky in terms of genre, if a song sounds good to me I’ll put it on replay.
Any recent movie you saw? If so, what? The last movie I watched was Logan when it came out.. that was def a while ago. Edit: jk I watched Wonder Woman and fell asleep during it AHAHAHArip
Do you believe in Cod? I don’t like fish.
Pirates or Marines? Piratez (unless we’re talking about Fujitora)
If you could be in any anime universe, which one and why? Pokemon, who wouldn’t want to have a fluffy Arcanine to cuddle with.
What is a good place to go to in your city? If you enjoy a good hike surrounded by trees like myself, go hike Mt. Davidson.
Ever been in a d&d campaign? If so, any interesting things happen? I had to look up what D&D was :’D
Tagged by @ask-scarhook
Where do you live? San Francisco!
Do you have phobias? I forget what that phobia is called- when something have a bunch of holes in them NO sldflaskdfj;ljkflgksdjf I just shuddered thinking about it
How many languages do you speak? English, Cantonese, Mandarin, and some basic Japanese :)
Favorite One Piece ship? Thousand Sunny is home, ZoSan is pretty gr8 too.
Do you have any mental health problems? I have not been clinically diagnosed with one :0c
Mouse or Tablet? If I’m doing design, mouse; if I’m doing illustration, tablet.
Cats or Dogs? Doggos
What is your favorite memes? I’m pretty indifferent.. All of them are quality trash
What is your favorite magical word? "TADA” (idk LOL)
Tagged by @ask-sleepy-swordsmen
What language do you think is the prettiest, even if you dont know the language, by sound alone? I love how Korean sounds ;w; Also Italian sounds pretty nice too =w=
Do you have allergies? If so, what are they? I’m sure I have some sort of skin allergy because when I was little I would break out in something like hives and the itching would keep me up at night, it was really unpleasant. There were times where it got so bad that even my tongue felt like it was swelling up xD I haven’t experienced such breakout past 7th grade though thankfully. However if I get scratched, the scratch mark would turn swollen? Like I can draw on my skin and the lines would come back up red and swollen a few moments later :’D
Do you like, or know about, digimon? The only thing I know about digimon is DIGIMON RUMBLE ARENA 2. I would always play with Gabumon because he turns into freaking robo-dog-wolf Metalgarurumon who shoots canons and destroys everyone.
What is your favorite thing about one piece? The tiniest details come back and smack you in the face 10293847023 chapters later; how intricate the entire OP universe is and how everything is somehow connected is quite fascinating. Also not every thing there is black/white, there’s a lot of grey areas.
What is your singer or band of choice that you listen to for comfort? BIGBANG or MAROON 5 they are my life.
Who’s your favorite one piece character and why? I did that character ranking thing a while back. I’ll take this chance to talk about Chopper. I see Chopper as my spirit animal as he expresses a lot of emotions that I’d probably feel the same about but instead would keep under my RBF XD. I like that he’s always trying his best to help others. I like that he tries to be modest, his knowledge and skills shows through based on his actions. He might not be the most offensive but that’s ok because his support skills are just as vital to the crew. He’s timid but sucks it up and takes a stance when the time calls for it (as someone who is socially anxious I think that’s really admirable). And of course he’s a cute lil shit.
What is your favorite non-anime show? Runningman, Bob’s burger
Do you prefer the cold or the heat? Whatever weather is in San Francisco
If you could either enter the world of your favorite anime or have your favorite anime character come to reality and be your friend/family/significant other, which would you wish for and why? As much as I love them, I don’t think I’d want any of my favs to my friend/fam/SO.
What is your favorite color? At the moment I am very much into any shades of the combination: Red/White/Blue
Have you ever experienced true hate or true love? I have yet to experience such strong emotions.

11 Questions Tag
I was actually tagged twice by @fairyyeols and @pebble-xo , who are both people of whom I’d never expected to get the honor to get tagged by them, so just know that I’m super really happy to answer all your questions 💕
I’ll start off with @fairyyeols questions: 1. Which dance from a MV would you want to be able to do?
To be honest, I’d really love to be able to dance to Monster, simply because it just looks so cool
2. What is one thing you’re scared of?
Being abandoned
3. What is a talent you wish you had?
Being able to naturally get good grades
4. If you could write a love song for anyone in this world, who would it be for and why?
Chanyeol, because he literally is the reason I’m still walking this earth
5. What is something you never want to lose when you grow older?
My love for EXO. They saved my life, and I’d be so sad if you’d tell me that I forget all about it when I grow older
6. Eyes, nose, mouth or cheeks?
Eyes. The eyes are a gateway to people’s souls. They tell the truth and show hidden emotions. I love eyes.
7. If you could alter your vision to see in an artist’s art style, who would it be?
Leonardo DaVinci. He was a great man, seeing everything not only as an artist, but also as a scientist, which made his paintings look so real. I like things to be real.
8. What is your most prized possession?
The picture of Chanyeol I got with my “The War” album (it’s not a photocard, I got three mini pictures with my album for some reason)
9. Name the top 5 features of your ultimate bias, inside or outside.
• His smile that is always so bright that it makes other people want to smile like he does, simply to be able to motivate people like that.
• His so so so optimistic personality and curiosity to learn new things
• His voice
• His honesty
• His entire existence.
10. What are some of your go-to shower songs?
Kokobop, Forever, 1.2.3 (by B.I.G), Baby (by ASTRO), Lucky One, The Eve, Monster, What U Do, Going Crazy.
11. What made you stan your fave group?
Chanyeol, literally. I stumbled across a lyric video of Baby Don’t Cry and when Chanyeol’s face popped up my immediate thought was that he’s a cutie and then I heard his voice and was so shocked that I looked into him and his group and got introduced to both kpop and EXO
And then now @pebble-xo one: if you had the choice to change your name, would you and to what?
I don’t think I would change my name, not because I think it’s the prettiest name ever or anything, but more because it holds a meaning to my parents who gave it to me, and it also contains memories. And besides, I have no idea what I’d change it to
two: is your bedroom super messy or really organised?
Super messy. Always.
three: have you ever broken a bone?
Nope, not even bruised one.
four: what would you put on your perfect pizza?
Ehh I don’t eat pizza I hate it
five: who was your teenage crush?
I’m still a teenager (I think?) so uh, Chanyeol?
six: your bias turns up on your doorstep and says they are taking you to your favourite place, where are you going?
Hah okay this may be really weird but I guess it’d be Laholm (Sweden) or Luxembourg. I love those places so much and they’re both filled with nature so I guess it doesn’t really matter. I’d love to go to such a place with Chanyeol and take a bunch of pictures together
seven: if you could have any animal as a pet, what would you choose?
A wolf would be too much, wouldn’t it? I guess I’d take a kitten
eight: hugs or kisses?
Hugs. They’re warm and comfortable and safe and soothing
nine: you start dating your bias and bring them home to meet your parents, what are their responses?
“Isn’t that dude from that band you always listen to what is he doing in our house and holding your hand”
ten: what’s your favourite thing about yourself?
Uhh… my compassion? Idk tbh
eleven: what cheers you up when you’re feeling a little low?
Chanyeol. Literally. In my years of depression I came to the realization that Chanyeol is the only thing (human) that can cheer me up
And now my own eleven questions (please bear with me)
Is your current bias your first bias? Why is he your bias?
If you could give your bias one thing, what would it be?
What is a story you’ve read in your childhood that you love?
What type of friend are you?
What story would you like to read with your bias in it?
You’re meeting your bias for the first time, describe the setting and what happens during your meeting (ex. meeting at a fanmeet or accidentally bumping into them at starbucks)
Something you’re afraid to talk about?
If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
You get the chance to buy one kpop album, which album would you choose and why?
If you could have your bias teach you one subject, which subject would it be?
Something that never fails to make you smile?
I’m tagging @iluvmyeonie @mans-ayyye @lunarjihoon @fluffyshua @chenbox @poutydaes @baekhyuneeeee-exo @prince-soulee @i-mweakforchangkyun @nunchiwrites

okay it’s midnight and I should get writing because I can’t sleep in all day tomorrow which would afford me the ability to stay up later (that sentence was horribly phrased but I’m too lazy to fix it so oh well). today was pretty great! some stuff not ideal but overall still pretty good. I woke up to my alarm at 9 and got dressed and got prepared for our first quest of the day, which was trying to get yet another pair of concert tickets for a KPop band Jess wants to see. This was one she cares slightly less about so we weren’t under quite as much pressure to get the good seats, we were just aiming for the cheap ones. So I put our usual breakfast order in on ubereats and it arrived shortly after she did at around 9:30, the tickets went on sale at 10. Since we’ve had not great experiences trying to get tickets up to this point we wanted to try to maximize our chances of getting them by using multiple accounts (which is probably cheating but tbh idgaf I’m sure the ticket scalpers are doing much worse with many more tickets) so I had my main one up in my main browser and then the one attached to my old email up in another one (it was funny, I logged onto it and it was under the name “Ann”- my mom’s name- and the credit cards stored on it expired in like, 2012 😂) and then Jess had hers up on the chromebook. Unlike the other ones thus far this one wasn’t doing the thing where they had a virtual queue form 10 minutes beforehand, so it was just whenever they decided to let you in. The lack of a virtual queue was objectively a good thing because it meant there weren’t as many people trying to get tickets, but it also meant it was just totally random with everyone who was there at that minute. But thankfully we got in after not too long and Jess was able to snag two tickets before anyone else clicked on them (because it does this really annoying thing where the page with refresh with the available tickets and you’ll click two but when you try to go forward it says somebody else already got them and then refreshes your page and it’s a pain in the ass) and after some slight panic over getting the right credit card the tickets were ours for the least amount of money, so we were pleased with that result. May is gonna be crazy, as it stands we have at least 2 concerts (well 3 for Jess being that she’s going to BTS twice) in the same week and are very likely going to end up with another when the Monsta X tickets go on sale on Friday (and of course for them we’re trying for Chicago and New York, so it might involve a NY trip as well). so that’s gonna be a lot, but nothing we’re not used to haha at this point I think we thrive in chaos. So once we had that taken care of we grabbed our things and headed out to Jess’ car. In case I forgot to mention this up to this point we were cosplaying as Ariel and Snow White in their pajama outfits from Wreck It Ralph 2 which is 100% a lazy cosplay but I really give zero fucks because it was comfy and easy. So we drove down to the convention center, this isn’t in the one that most of the Chicago cons are in out by the airport (northwest of downtown in the top corner of the city) but rather C2E2 is in the convention center that’s adjacent to the loop that happened to be the place that they used for my law school graduation and bar swearing in, so I’ve had some very different experiences in this building, lol. I did my make up in the car and was fairly pleased with how it turned out. Once we got there there was some confusion about parking, we were originally planning on parking in one of their lots that’s right connected to the place so we didn’t have to walk in the cold (we were leaving our jackets in the car so we didn’t have to carry them all day; I was in shorts but was wearing my extra thick ice skating tights underneath them so it wasn’t terrible) but that didn’t end up happening so we had to walk in the cold a little bit but we managed. Later in the day Jess mentioned that apparently all of their parking had filled up and there were people with tickets who couldn’t get in because they didn’t have anywhere to park, so the con probably oversold their tickets in that sense. So we got in fairly easily, it was already opened at this point since we were doing the tickets that delayed our arrival a bit. So we start walking the show floor a bit and then decide we should check out artist’s alley first, but try not to buy anything on our first walk through, just consider stuff. the issue of course is that artist’s alley is generally full of great art, but I have literally no room on my wall for anything haha and I still have to hang up my 3 photo ops from London (though they are only 6x9′s instead of the standard 8x10′s so hopefully that will make it easier) and my Matt Ryan one from Cleveland. so I could really only consider very small things, lol. but there was a lot of cool stuff, always a pretty great assortment of different art styles and subject matters. I spotted a few things I may come back and get tomorrow, we will see. I really wanted to see if they had any art from The Cursed Child but I didn’t see anything, besides one drawing that I’m pretty sure was supposed to be Draco but could conceivably be Scorpius from the way he was drawn (but he was with drawings of the original trio so probably not). still a cool drawing though. so that took a while, though definitely less time than it did last year. So after that we went in search of anybody we might know that was there but didn’t see anybody, so we started wandering the show floor. Now, in terms of not needing to buy anything, this was even worse because the solid majority of it is clothing, and we both already own way too much clothing, especially comics related lol. so we made our way through most of everything, some cool stuff, not managed to refrain from buying anything up till that point. We had checked the schedule for panels at one of the smaller stages (their main stage panels are super crowded and there wasn’t anyone we cared that much about) and Colin Donnell (aka Tommy from Arrow) was doing one at 1:30 and it was like 12:50 at this point, so we went over to the little row of food vendors they had and managed to get some decent food for lunch that we sat and ate before returning to the panel stage and managing to find seats right before it started. It was pretty entertaining, he is very pretty in person, though that’s probably not a shock to many. He talked about Arrow of course but also about Chicago Med being that that’s his current show and it is after all filmed and set in Chicago. He also talked about his background doing Broadway which I wasn’t aware of so that was cool to hear about. one of the questions they asked him was like “if you’re on jeopardy, what category would you want the final jeopardy question to be from?” and I was like “musical theatre trivia” (answering somewhat for myself but also for him) and right after I said that he was like “broadway trivia” haha so I felt validated, that is definitely what I would choose given that question. So that lasted about half an hour and was pretty fun. After that we went back to wander the rest of the show floor that we hadn’t made it to yet, most notably a few KPop/Anime/etc. themed booths that were wild, Jess ended up getting into a conversation with these like high school girls about going to BTS and they were like, unironically fans of them when Jess is only a very ironic fan, and they were like “oh who do you stan??” and then the girl said she stans the one guy Jess hates and I busted up laughing at all of it, I couldn’t stop myself, it was truly hilarious. they were talking about the concert and what nights they were going and the girls were like “oh yeah Sunday’s gonna be tough you know because it’s a school night!” and I just fucking died because they’re clearly like 15. So that was very amusing. Jess ended up convincing me I needed one of the hats they sold at that booth, they were the snapback style with the big plastic letters attached across the top which said “THICC” in pink and I got it for the pure reason to wear to ClexaCon next month and it’s gonna be great, I of course put it on as soon as I bought it too. We then went upstairs to where they host the main stage panels just to check it out, there were a lot of people in very long lines, and I was glad I wasn’t in one of them. So we hung out up there for a while just to chill out a bit. We ended up heading back downstairs to see if we could locate an internet friend who’s working the con but we weren’t able to find her today (probably will see her tomorrow) and ended up finally seeing some people we knew, so we sat with them for a while until they ended up heading out, and after that we did a little more wandering before deciding to call it a day, it was a little earlier than we’d normally leave but Jess was feeling kinda crappy and there wasn’t really anything else we were dying to do so it made sense to just go home. Drove back and got dropped off, I changed into comfortable clothing and didn’t really have anything I needed to take care of so I ended up sitting on the couch and watching the last four episodes of season 5 of The Americans, stopping somewhere in there to make two eggs for dinner (which was a bad plan, I go through weird phases with food and I had convinced myself that I was fine eating eggs but I really wasn’t), and then before the last episode to shower before returning to finish it. This season happened to have a fairly brutal finale, in my opinion at least- trigger warning here for self-harm/suicide. So the plot was basically that they had befriended this family that had just defected from the Soviet Union and for some mildly important reason they wanted at least the wife and their son to go back, so one of the methods they employ is using their fake spy son (not their actual child) who had originally befriended him make things at school really bad for their son to the point where he would be so miserable that his mother would want to return to Russia with him. Well, it didn’t look like it was working, and their fake son ended up advising his friend to “slit his wrists” in order to get his parents attention enough for them to take him back, and the spy apparently “showed him” how to do it without hitting an artery, and the spy is calmly recounting this to his fake parents, saying he was going to do it at 7 pm that night, right when his parents were supposed to get home. Of course their majorly alarmed but were split on what to do because they didn’t want to compromise the mission, but the dad ends up storming out of their fake home and walking to their friend’s home and are trying to get in when his parents arrive, and so they get into the house and sent the spy son up to the other son’s room, and a second later you hear him yelling for help, so they storm upstairs to find the boy unconscious on his bed with blood all over his arms and bed. And I mean, I knew going into this episode I would probably see this (they left the previous episode at a cliffhanger about them intervening) but I really was not prepared for that image. And then of course his parents start freaking out and his mother is just next to him sobbing while everyone is scrambling to call 911 and try to bind his wounds the best they can until the paramedics get there and like.....the whole thing just made me so mad. To be fair, the main characters were very alarmed that this was used as a tactic and think their fake kid way overstepped in doing telling him to do this, but the whole idea of basically risking sacrificing the life of a child for a part of your mission that was not even very critically important meanwhile you go home to your own children.....like how as a parent could you ever live with yourself?? And I mean, I know these are spies that regularly just shoot people, some innocent some not, but like, interfering in this boy’s life to make him absolutely miserable and it culminating in something as horrible as this really just pissed me tf off. and I mean that’s for obvious reasons, this is an intersection of two issues I care deeply about, mental health advocacy and the wellbeing of children. So that whole storyline left me pretty angry. And I mean I know, it’s fiction, this didn’t actually happen, but just to see the callousness to the life of a child portrayed like that was really disturbing to witness. But I finished the episode and then turned the tv off for the night and started getting ready for bed, and shortly after I started writing this and now I am here. It’s almost 1 am and I have an 8:30 alarm set, so I think it is time for me to go to bed. Goodnight babes. Hope you’re enjoying your weekend.

11 questions! 😊
I was tagged by @s-lay-ing to do this tag which is very similar to one ive done before but its one of those cool ones thats different everytime you do it! So basically you answer 11 questions then give 11 to be answered! Thanks so much for tagging me Claudia, you the realest like wow. 🙃💜
Tagging some lovely binches: @min-yoongini, @maybehao @bubkwan @insecure-trash-bag @kae-popx @yeol-mints and whoever else wants to do it! No pressure, just do it if you feel like it! 💜
1. Would you travel alone around your country?
I think I would, I think I would enjoy myself. Having time to myself like that is one of my favorite things. I love getting lost in my own thoughts, traveling alone seems like it would be a good opportunity to do so. On the other hand maybe its not the best idea to get lost in your thoughts while traveling alone cause you know stranger danger and all 😅
2. You save the enough money to buy sth you’ve really really wanted for a long time (something small) but just when you were about to spend it you found out your fave group set a date to perform in your country and the ticket costs the same as that thing you wanted to buy…which one would you choose to buy?(Asking 'cause a couple of years ago I was TWO SECONDS away from buying a black widow costume until a band confirmed they were coming so yeah…I bought the concert ticket 😂💔)
Without a doubt I would buy the ticket, bands I like don't come to Minnesota very often. For example I recently bought tickets to see my favorite band in May, I saw they were coming here and without any hesitation I was like yep I gotta go! You can always save up money for material things but life experiences are harder to come by!
3. Are you a good at cooking?
Yes, thats what I do for a living! Ive pretty much been cooking since I could walk! 👩🏻🍳
4. In a zombie apocalypse, would you be a) someone who follows the rest b) someone who takes the lead c) a mix of both?
To be honest Im the type who likes to think/act like they are a leader but really my leadership skills are severely lacking hahaha. So when things would get tough Id just be like nah you guys got this Ill be over here lmk if y'all need anything ty ty. 🤣
5. If shit blew on earth which one of the following would you chose to save yourself? A ship/submarine like the one from the movie 2012 or the space ship from wall-e?
The space ship for sure. Deep sea is actually the scariest thing to me, just thinking about whats down in the ocean gives me the shivers. 🤢
6. Is there an online shop you would absolutely recommend?
I recently bought a kpop phone case from this lovely Etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/shop/shopTwazy. She does the most beautiful custom and pre-made phone cases and key chains! she's also so kind and helpful! Check her out!
7. Name an underrated song you could swear it’s so good yet it’s highly ignored
As for a kpop song not sure if its really that underrated but Shinees 1of1 the mv doesn't even have 10 mil views why y'all sleeping on shinee these days? That song is the literal best bop also taemins dancing 🙌🏼
As far as just music in general ANYTHING BY THE SHINS (the group I’m seeing in may) They had like one popularish song in the early 2000s but they are so under appreciated these days its not even funny, I get it though they aren't everyones cup of tea but James Mercers voice is like pure molten honey. (September - The Shins)
8. You’re invited to three different parties made by the top 3 entertainment companies (sm, yg and jyp) where the only songs you’ll hear during the whole night are the songs made by their own artists, which party would you attend?
That is actually so difficult for me. First of jyp is automatically out of the picture, I really only listen to got7 as far as their groups go. But like Big Bang is one of my faves, but then there is Shinee which hurts me physically, and like winner is one of my favorite groups musically, but like Exo. GIRL GROUPS don't make me chose between Blackpink and Red Velvet MY QUEENS! If the groups are performing at said party that changes everything, if that was the case hands down SM. I love Big Bang/winner but the don't have the moves like Shinee/exo.
9. Your bias pulls a performance like this one and he brings you on stage…what would your reaction be?
First of all no, don't link me to shit like this. Its 4:30 in the morning here I don't need this!! Why?? Who do you think you are?? Kibum does things to me!!!! jk tysm ily 💜 Tbh I probably be a bit like wtf 🙃 then Id be like “ GET YOUR ISHH BOO BOOO” “DO YOUR THANG HUNNY!” Also Id dance along because Im never one to turn down a chance to look like a dumbass.
10. Do you have a pic with someone famous?
Not that I can think of! I've got plenty of pictures with my sister @min-yoongini tho, she's pretty cool! (gofollowher!)
11. If you were granted the possibility to take one group on a seven day vacation/break/time off schedule with the condition that it has to be broadcasted as a variety show later on…would you accept? If the answer is yess: which group would you take and what would you do w/ them? (Travel overseas, a city tour, a ski resort, a car trip, stay in the city etc)
I feel like my obvious answer here is seventeen, but Im gonna go with blackpink because they all seem so chill and nice! I dunno where we would go but some where with lots of history or something! Also no language barrier, so thats nice! Also girls are awesome so yeah all girl trip hell yeah!
My questions
1. If you had to choose between listening to music or watching any kind of video (tv, movie,mv) which would you choose if you had to give one up? (the most evil question 😈)
2. Do have any favorite sayings/lines/lyrics and why are they your favorites?
3. Do you collect any kpop related stuff? Merch/Photocards/Albums/ect? and what groups?
4. What are your top 3 favorite and least favorite food?
5. If you were given 1000 dollars to spend on whatever you like no catches what would you spend it on?
6. What hobbies do you have outside of kpop?
7. Do you have any piercings or tattoos? if so where and of what?
8. What is your favorite beverage beside water/coffee/tea/pop?
9. Where is the coolest places you ever been? Tell me about it!
10. What group/s is/are your bias group/s? Why?
11. Name a less popular group that you like that you think doesn't get the recognition they deserve! hype them up!! (coughcoughmonstaxcoughcough)
#A precious bean tagged me#The realest bean#Your questions were so on point btw#quality content#I really hate thinking of new question that shit is hard as hell#Let me know if you don't want to be tagged!#Do it if you feel like it!#Tag

OOC WEEK: DAY FIVE
Favourite band(s): SHINee, Blackpink, Red Velvet (kpop trash tbh like don’t judge me), Hurts, Seafret, Sleeping at Last, Head and the Heart etc.
Favourite song(s): Jonghyun - White T-Shirt (literally omg my boy I canny deal with it), SHINee - Married to the Music (never forget how great this song is like yes boys slaayyy), Blackpink - Whistle, Hurts - Some Kind of Heaven, Head and the Heart - Another Story etc.
Favourite book(s): Oh boy, this is gonna be a long one. Prince of Shadows - Rachel Cain (an awesome retelling of Romeo and Juliet through the eyes of Benvolio, it gives such great insight into the Montagues and Capulets and really fleshes out the characters, it made me love Mercutio about a billion times more, my sweet babe). The Night Circus - Erin Morgenstern (just a really beautifully written book with such detail and imagination, set in a circus where two real magic users battle against each other by creating attractions). The Forbidden Game - L.J.Smith (I love a lot of L.J.Smith’s work but this one in particular was immense tbh, I can’t really explain much without huge spoilers but if you get the chance to read it you should, it’s three stories in one but all about the same people and it’s just a great read). The Grimm Legacy - Polly Shulman (an awesome story about a girl who ends up working at a library that lends out objects rather than books, and there’s basically a secret department where objects from fairy tales said to be myths are kept and as you can imagine that comes with a great deal of trouble). Splintered - A.G.Howard (based on Alice in Wonderland it’s a much darker story about one of Alice’s ancestors in the modern world, it’s really awesome and tbh I’m in love with the new Mad Hatter, he’s like... beaut, real book crush for sure). Seraphina - Rachel Hartman (omg so this is just such a great book, first in the series and I haven’t read the other’s yet, basically set in a world where dragons can shift to look like humans and live among them and there’s this sort of treaty stopping the two rival species from hurting each other but it’s all very fragile and it’s just such a great book and all the dragon canons are SO GREAT). Wildthorn - Jane Eagland (it’s about a girl who basically ends up in a mental institute in Victorian England despite the fact that she’s not mental, there’s awesome flashbacks into her childhood as she tries to figure out why she’s actually there and *spoiler* there’s a wonderful lesbian romance). The God of Small Things - Arundhati Roy (it’s got some pretty intense themes in this book so I’d be cautious reading it, some parts literally made me feel a bit sick but that’s sort of the idea, it’s still really beautifully written and it’s sort of about a girl returning to India and her old family home and reflecting back on things that happened in her past that she didn’t understand at the time? The really interesting thing is the flashbacks when you see things through her and her twin’s eyes as children and it’s sort of this horrible thing where as a reader you know what’s going on and you understand situations that they so clearly don’t... but it’s a lot about her realising that too, that things happened when she was a child that she didn’t understand until later and sort of the consequences of not understanding things?? Basically it’s really intense but great). Jackson Pearce’s Fairy Tale Re-Tellings (e.g. Sisters Red, Sweetly, Fathomless. Basically really cool books that take old fairy tales and switch them up, plus also really awesome there’s subtle connections between all of them which I got mainly through Sweetly & Fathomless. I read them in the order I listed though cause that’s the order they were written, and Sisters Red is a great book to start with anyway, it’s basically a re-telling of Little Red Riding Hood about two sisters- it’s also written a chapter at a time in their POV- who fight/hunt werewolves).
Favourite quote: “Harold, you have forced me to do something I really didn’t want to do... My diet is ruined and I hope you’re happy.” - Fairy Godmother, Shrek 2. (Ok but for real I can’t think of just one favourite quote but the Shrek films always crack me up)
Favourite movie(s): Oh boy, another long one. LOTR series, extended editions, of course, because they’re just generally great movies and I love them so much, won’t even lie I reckon LOTR holds a higher priority in my heart than HP, I just literally can’t fault them. I love Disney films, literally so much. the animated ones in particular and tbh I could probably say that either Mulan or Pocahontas are my faves. Bleach: Fade to Black, cause the whole movie is basically an honour to my OTP of the series and it’s all I ever needed/wanted out of the series but never really got... canonly, at least. Honestly, I could go on forever but to be quick one of my favourite movies of all time is Cloud Atlas. If you haven’t seen/read Cloud Atlas then it’s a story broken down into multiple smaller narrations and time periods, though the great thing about it is all these seemingly random people and places are all connected and you realise that as you go along. It’s got a really great narration, rather than telling one story middle to end and then starting the next it switches between all of them, giving it a really nice pace and also allowing clues and connections to build up more steadily. I won’t lie, at times it’s tragically sad but I think the message of the whole film is sort of beautiful, the whole idea really is that people are all connected to each other through time and over distance so you should live your life with that in mind, trying to make the differences you can for all the people you may help in the future. It’s basically a beautiful film with an amazing cast (Ben Whishaw is the sweetest, prettiest bean in it tbh I canny deal) and I would recommend anyone to watch it.
Favourite tv shows: Doctor Who, Teen Wolf, The 100, The Magicians, Great British Bake Off, Shadowhunters, Sense8, Stranger Things, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Game of Thrones etc. etc. (I could go on forever tbh).
Are you active in any fandoms right now?: Yes and no? It depends what you mean by active, if you mean do I actively freak out and stan all my fandoms then the answer is yes, always, never stop.
What fandoms were you active in?: The Sherlock Holmes fandom, and I saw ‘were’ because I’m still a fan but I actually, and don’t hate me, really hate the TV series. I just think there are so many faults with it, so many things not quite right about the characters, and to be perfectly honest I think the whole thing about Sherlock Holmes, what made him so damn impressive, was his ability to solve these crimes in a time where they didn’t have all this modern equipment to help him out. He was a genius because he just used his mind, raw talent, in a time where solving crimes was a hell of a lot more difficult. I think setting the series in modern day London takes some of the thrill out of it, he’s still smart but he has all this extra help and all this fancy science to back up and check everything for him. Took the magic out of Sherlock Holmes for me, so I’m holding out for the third movie and then maybe I’ll jump back in (tbh RDJ and JL make a much better Holmes and Watson too, their chemistry is more natural and their relationship in general feels more believable to me).
What tv shows or movies did you watch as a child that were fundamental to how you grew up?: Scooby Doo. Always and forever. It was just great, amazing, that this group of individuals all had different talents, interests and skills but came together to solve mysteries simply because they could and enjoyed it. Also most Disney things, I’m a Disney kid through and through.
What’s one thing you collect(ed): Soft toys aka teddies... still do.
Spotify or youtube?: Youtube.
Netflix or those sweet, sweet illegal downloads?: Netflix though only recently, tbh before that I just didn’t really watch what I couldn’t get on TV, because I’m lazy and cba.
Have you ever been to a concert? If so, whose?: A few years back I went to a Lindsey Stirling concert and it was amazing, she was amazing, I love her.
OTP: Oh boy, where to start, so many tbh. It’d be so much easier just to link you HERE, it’s the OTP tag on my personal blog, there’s way too many to list though also if you check my faves page HERE, there’s a list of my top OTPS and my inventive tags for them.
NOTP: So many from so many fandoms tbh it’s ridiculous. Couldn’t list them all, though if you want to no my top NOTP off the top of my head that’d be IchiHime (Ichigo & Orihime from Bleach) and tbh if I went into details as to why both of them deserved so much better than what they ended up with then I’d rant forever.
Currently watching: Teen Wolf, Class, How to Get Away with Murder, Game of Thrones, Shadowhunters etc. etc.
Currently reading:
Currently listening to: SHINee everything tbh.
If you could make everyone read one book, which would it be?: Prince of Shadows - Rachel Cain, because if you didn’t have a soft spot for Romeo and Juliet before then you will after this book, putting it in Benvolio’s POV was a stroke of genius, there’s a whole new level added to the events when you see them through the eyes of Romeo’s older cousin. Tbh sweet baby Romeo, he’s such a smol bean, don’t hate on my babes ever.

@jamesbcrnes:

@ahoneyyboyy @yoongsb:
nicole/ji~ ^^ i guess it’s a little weird to be combining a dedication like this bt i pretty much have the same thing to say anyway,so i hope it doesn’t make it seem any less heartfelt/sincere!we haven’t been talking much recently,bt i’m really grateful to have exchanged many long msges with you.you’re both amazing ppl & i hope you’re doing great!!glad to have met you <3
@cuteseokjin @jinandtonics:

@kimvitae:
steph!!idk what to say here that i haven’t alr covered bcos our msges are ridiculously long (rip to kkt eating them) bt i guess i talk more abt fandom/life than actually any sort of appreciation so i want to say thank you for listening & contributing your views :p you’re awesome & i’m glad we met!!i hope you have better luck rmbring your passwords LOL & that sch doesn’t kick your ass too much.rmbr i’m always here to listen if you need it!ily <3
@taechimseok:

@matthewbane @sprinkleofharries:
sara/lola~ :) i haven’t talked to either of you in ages,honestly..idk if you even still rmbr me,cos my blog content has changed pretty much completely (i still post what i used to at a sideblog though!bt it’s nt active).anyhow,you’re both lovely ppl & i’m glad to have met you ^^ this is a reminder you can always pm me again - add me on kkt or telegram if you have either of those,maybe we’ll do a better job at keeping in touch on diff apps or pm me if you want to add me on insta/snapchat (sara i think i have you on both of those,though i only see you on the former sometimes xD).i hope you have been doing well in the meantime!! :D
@consulting-lawyer-boyfriends:
