#maybe I'll make a post about them dancing together 👀

[kaytheday]

Just having some Sharkcard thoughts:

Beverly the dancer. A graceful poise that has been practiced and perfected and neatly drilled into her since she started her professional dance lessons at three years old. She has undeniable skill evident in every turn and every pirouette. She dances like she holds ocean waves inside her, powerful, constant, gleaming with unnatural precision. Her dancing is careful and will always stay inside the lines. Something her mother and countless instructors drilled into her.

Ace, also the dancer. Her body moving as it is barely able to contain her free spirit. Her turns and spins bursting at the seams with life, grit, zest, and spunk. She dances like there is fire beneath her feet, never stopping, her moves choppy and vivacious. Her dancing is loud and begs you to watch like a growling lion or a blazing wildfire. Saturday nights spent at the Tulsa Juke Joint taught Ace how to dance wild and unrestrained.

𓂃 ★ atsumu miya

Totally dissolved after a couple of drinks. At the stage of the first shot, everything was still fine, tsumu only felt a slight dizziness and a desire to go dance and relax after training. but after the 3rd shot, he already fell into a slight depressive state and turned into a complete sticky aching mess. Will call you asking you to pick him up from the place where they drank together as a team MSBY, whining and mumbling indistinctly into the phone about his boundless love for you and how much Mia misses your warm arms and gentle kisses. With a 100% chance he'll fall asleep in the cab, nestled quietly on your shoulder as you both sit in the backseat of the car. His fingers will be lazily entwined with yours, and his nose, along with his quiet snoring and sniffling, will be nestled into your neck, lightly blowing warm alcoholic air against your skin. You'll most likely have to drag Atsuma to the bed, because he'll refuse to wake up and all his huge weight with a mountain of muscles will be put on your body. Well... On the bright side it shows how much he trusts you)

"Guys say I'm too clingy... But I just love you.. I missed you so much I thought my heart would burst..."

𓂃 ★ akaashi keiji

Incredibly good at tolerating alcohol. In addition, Keiji only drinks on important occasions, such as the release of their new manga or the promotion of a colleague, and not much else. He sits quietly at the table enjoying the alcohol, speaks only during toasts, and listens attentively while sarcastically poking fun at his drunken colleagues. Aka is able to call himself a cab and get home, but is sure to warn through a message that a little drunk. Very quietly enters the apartment, trying not to wake you up. Hates the smell of booze, so he tries to change clothes and take a shower as soon as possible. Tiredness after a working day obviously plays against him, and the combo of a hot bath and drunk drinks makes him sleepy, so he's already drifting like a fly towards the bed, yawning on the way. Often he forgets to take off his glasses and falls asleep just like that, which makes him irritated and grumbling in the morning about the stiff bridge of his nose. Gently squeezes your body from the back in bed, covering your shoulders more comfortably with a blanket, quietly apologizing for staying up late, falling asleep from the warmth of your body.

"Sorry, I must smell like alcohol..."

𓂃 ★ suguru daishou

A clingy drunk asshole. Period. On a joint night out at the pub with your mutual friends, he's clearly had the most to drink. Sticks to you in the cab with an annoying whine, but you can tell his true intentions by that smirk. Just longs to be snuggled up against your white one, nuzzling his face into your warm neck while you mumble about his foul smelling booze. maybe let a couple of dirty (???) jokes fly, but mostly cute teasing that shows all his affection. Surprisingly, alcohol makes him more honest, and while in normal times it's quite difficult for him to say words of love every day, mundanely he replaces them with light loving jokes, now the sleepy drunken muttering of his "I love you, snake" can't help but make me smile ear to ear. The tight protective embrace around your waist, even if you're just riding the elevator home and from his drunken look no one would definitely even think of approaching you, never drops, and Suguru only continues to gently stroke your side with the palm of his hand. The only thing his thoughts are filled with is to rather hide you in a warm bed and, tangled up in a ball like snakes, fall asleep in your arms.

"Hmm... Snakieee, I'm cold... And your neck is so warm and cute, and your ears are burning with pink light, I'm sure one bite will warm the two of us...~"

Part 30 and little break cause I have an exam on Thursday (I did study during this days all of this is program)(Also I'll post a sim coach too)

Party In The USA Night Parade Version

So now we have the parade from the normal version but during the night and with two different coaches. I'm still standing by what I said before about the coaches that they could have reused but again I'm fine with what we got.

The dance it's more energetic and a little bit more difficult than the normal version. I like it nothing else to say about the choreo it's my style.

The background still the same. Well only with the three exception that now it takes place during the whole parade and it doesn't switch to the cafeteria, it's not a dream from both coaches and during the bridge it appears like gold blocks representing one of the coaches.

The reused coaches are Swish Swish P1 called Owen and 24k Magic P1 called Eddie. Good to see both of them back, more Eddie since Owen I think his last appearance was in Last Friday Night? But still good to see both of them. I'm curious about why they use this two, maybe they are also coaches of maximum influence in the Danceverse (apart from probably being together 👀?) Which kinda makes sense considering both maps being like celebrities or "rich" people

Anyways 8.5/10 too for this map

[twilight-deviant]

I think in my case of the fanfic that I would most like to read FiskMatt by other authors, stories where Matt and Fisk already have an established relationship and they find a way to make it work (or fail in the attempt), I also think Omegaverse but not focused so much on the erotic or obscene part but more on the social and interpersonal themes that a universe like that would involve the characters Fisk and Matt. I also think I would like there to be stories about an arranged marriage between Fisk and Matt.

Note: This is not a request, I just wanted to share my new love for this couple, based on one of the posts about fanfic AU

♥♥♥

Agreeeeeed. I think that's one of the most... I won't say "interesting"... but one of the aspects of the FiskMatt ship which inherently requires the most thought. Is how would an actual relationship work? They have soooo much in common that it's crazy how many other aspects upon which they stand in polar opposite. So it is a very delicate dance of trying to bring them together over commonality while negotiating out the rest. Because I do think Fisk conceding every facet because "he's the villain/wrong" is dull. Unfortunately for Matt, he makes a good point every now and then. Instead of Matt getting everything he wants, it has to be everything he can live with. Which is tricky and would come with many disagreements along the way. But mm, them failing! is something I don't write enough. Also good is them knowing it won't end well and acknowledging the inevitable while delaying it as long as possible. The tragedy, mwah! I am personally very guilty of writing oneshots for individual scenarios I'm interested in atm, or I'll shortcut to "They're in a relationship, don't ask questions." Hah.

⫐⫐⫐⫐⫐⫐⫐⫐⫐⫐

I hear you loud and clear about the omegaverse trope. 👏 I think everyone gets what they want out of it. (Because it's unofficial, by fandom for fandom with flexible guidelines instead of rules.) Some people are into the standard hypersexual and tiered, sexist class system. Ehhhhhhhh, I'm just here for the mpreg. Haha. For me, it is an mpreg shortcut. That and characters being compelled into situations and relationships that might otherwise never happen. Similar to the sex pollen or "f**k or die" tropes, but because it doesn't begin and end with sex (well, I'm sure it does for some) omegaverse has the option to include a forced relationship while allowing for more story or plot beyond just sex. For me, anyway. That is what it means to me.

So FiskMatt in omegaverse? Well, I've used it a couple times for obvious reasons. lol. It's like an excuse to get them out of their own way. (✿◡‿◡) "I am biologically predisposed to being intrigued by you despite our differences." Or "Oh no, we had sex and our relationship is forever changed." Or "We're expecting a child and should probably settle some of our differences for their sake."

⫐⫐⫐⫐⫐⫐⫐⫐⫐⫐

Arranged marriage FiskMatt??? I don't think I've done that trope yet. You have my attention. 👀 I'll have to let my mind wander on scenarios for that one.

Like... standard warlord and the defeated royalty to form a peaceful alliance? (Maybe Fisk demands the firstborn-- and heir to throne-- prince, Michael. But Matt volunteers to do the ol' twin switcheroo in his brother's place.)

Or Matt needing the Kingpin's help in a larger capacity than ever before and Fisk wanting something just as consequential (his hand) in return.

Trying to think of how dark I could go here. Maybe a younger Fisk buying Jack Murdock's contract and debt from the Fixer. He'll even cancel it, but he wants something in return for his trouble. And this can be more in line with original comics where Matt was college-age when his dad died. Jack refuses but Matt accepts. You know he'd do anything to protect his dad. (The nature of fandom is every so often, someone re-invents Beauty and the Beast.)

I need/crave more FiskMatt arranged marriage scenarios now.

Weekend WIP game

Rules: List your WIPs below (if you only write one fic at a time, feel free to include future WIPs/ideas!) then answer the following questions. Then, tag as many people as you have WIPs (or more).

Thank you @happiness-of-the-pursuit for tagging me! (technically you tagged my main, @mainstreamelectricalparade, but this is my RWRB blog, so I'm responding here, LOL)

1. WIP List:

(bolding stuff I'm actively working on, since now that I've finished my current project, most of these are still in the very early stages ����)

It's Nice to Have a Friend sequel (canon-divergent childhood friends-to-lovers AU)

INTHAF tabloid/social media companion fic

Actor AU enemies-to-friends-to-lovers (child actor Alex, non-actor Henry, technically)

the Bond AU (actually also an actor AU where Henry has the opportunity to follow in his father's footsteps and be the next generation's James Bond... but so does Alex 👀)

Tangled AU (Henry is Rapunzel, Alex is Flynn, you can guess where that's going)

I technically have other WIPs, but they're from a different fandom and thinking about them doesn't really spark joy right now, so I'm not going to include them here 😅

2. Which of your WIPs is currently the longest?

Um... I think the child actor Alex outline is currently longer than any of the others, and I have the opening scene written for it, so I'll say that one 😂

3. Which WIP do you expect will end up the longest?

Ooh... at this stage, it's so hard to tell! It could honestly be any of them, I haven't even started working on some of them properly, yet, so I have no idea if they'll be oneshots or fully-fledged longfics. Currently, my best guess would be the sequel for the childhood friends AU, but... that could change.

4. Which WIP is your favourite to write/the most enjoyable to write? Why?

I wouldn't say I have a favorite, yet... I've done the most outlining for the child actor Alex AU, just because we had a full-on conversation about it in the server, so a lot of the hard work was done for me 😂 I'm joking, obviously, I still have a lot of work to do, but the server gave me some great ideas, so I'm very excited about that fic. A close second is the childhood friends sequel, though, because that AU is my baby <3

5. Which WIP do you find the most intimidating to write? Why?

Hmm... A little nervous about the Tangled AU, maybe? I'm not sure why, I just find fics based on movies to be difficult, because I want to stay true to the story, but also make put my own spin on it and make it just different enough that it's not, like, an exact replica. I also have to find ways to work around the scenes with singing and dancing in them 😂 but that will be the easy part, tbh.

6. Which WIP do you experience the most self-doubt about. Why?

Maybe the childhood friends AU tabloid/social media fic? I've never really done anything like it before. I have to come up with a whole bunch of headlines, write excerpts of news articles, make social media posts, and tie them all together neatly in a cohesive timeline that ties into the original fic. I've maybe bitten off more than I can chew, but there's no pressure to get anything posted before I'm ready! I think people are more excited for the sequel, anyway 🤭

7. Which of your WIPs will you seek out a beta/sensitivity reader for? Why?

Umm... I might not get a full-on beta, but the sequel for the childhood friends AU isn't just going to be about Alex and Henry's budding romantic relationship, it's also going to be continuing to deal with topics such as the aftermath of Arthur's death, Bea's experience with rehab, Henry starting therapy, and so on, so I'll probably ask some friends from the server to check some stuff over if there's anything I'm not sure about.

8. Have any of your WIPs been struck by the curse of writer's block?

Technically, no, because I've barely gotten started on any of them 😂

9. Which WIP has your favourite OC? Tell us about them?

None of my WIPs have OCs, yet (though I imagine that will change once I really get into the actual writing), but my fully-posted fic, It's Nice to Have a Friend, has two: Robert, Catherine's equerry, and Judy, the head cook at Kensington Palace. I love them both, tbh, a mother could never choose a favorite child 😊

10. Which WIP is the sexiest?

lmao, I don't write sexy stuff 😂 The sexiest thing I've ever written is a brief moment in the epilogue of It's Nice to Have a Friend, where I blink-and-you-miss-it implied that Alex and Henry had sex after getting engaged 😂

11. Which WIP is the angstiest?

That's probably gonna be the sequel 😅 I'm gonna make it as fluffy as I can, but it's gonna be an immediate continuation following chapter 10 of It's Nice to Have a Friend, which means long distance. Plus, like I said in question 7, Henry's still got his grief and Bea's recovery to work through, so it's not going to be the smoothest ride.

12. Which WIP has the best characterisation (in your humble opinion)?

There's no way not to make this sound like a humble brag but I've gotten a lot of comments on It's Nice to Have a Friend that have told me my characterizations are really good, so assuming I'm consistent in the sequel, that will probably remain true there, as well. Although, the two enemies to lovers AUs I have... I don't have any interactions between the boys written down for either of those fics, yet, but that's pretty on-brand for them 😂

13. Which WIP has the best scene setting (in your humble opinion)?

Uhhh... not entirely sure what this means 😅 Like, overall universe setting, or like a specific scene? I think either way I'm gonna have to go with the childhood friends AU, because I'm just completely in love with it. I can't help it, that AU is my baby 😂 Although I am getting super into the child actor Alex AU, as well!!!

14. Which WIP have you worked the hardest on?

DEFINITELY the childhood friends AU! I spent five weeks writing the original fic, and I've been thinking about a sequel for at least two. I only started actually outlining it after I finished writing the first one, but there's no way I can say I've worked harder on anything else, even though the original fic and the sequel are technically two separate fics.

15. Which WIP do you have the highest expectations for? Why?

The sequel 😂 I can't help it, It's Nice to Have a Friend is the fic that made me fall back in love with writing, and I'm positive that the sequel will continue that legacy. Although I'm feeling really good about the way the child actor Alex AU is turning out, as well!

16. Do you dream about any of your WIPs?

Uh... maybe? Except, I couldn't really tell if it was just a vague, generic Alex and Henry dream, or if I was actually dreaming about them in the childhood friends 'verse.....

17. Do any of your WIPs have particular complexities that your other fics don't?

Well, yeah, I mean, before I started writing for RWRB, I was almost exclusively a platonic fluff writer in the Iron Dad fandom (just check my Ao3 page 😂), so almost everything more complex than a toddler with an ear infection adds a new challenge for me, but I'm loving it, so far.

18. Which WIP is the funniest or has the most humour?

Uh... I'll get back to you on that when I actually have stuff written for any of them 😂 the Tangled AU will probably be pretty funny, though.

19. Do any of your WIPs contain outside POVs or a deep dive on a character other than the main ship? How are you finding that process?

Yeah! The child actor Alex AU will actually have a lot of Arthur's POV, because in that fic he kind of takes Alex under his wing, both as an acting mentor and as a sort of father figure when Alex needs someone to turn to in the wake of his parents' divorce, so you'll get to see a lot of Arthur's thoughts and feelings as Alex and Henry get to know each other.

20. Tell us one thing we don't know about one or more of your WIPs.

Um... one of the boys is gonna be a Bond Girl, and I'm not telling you which one.

A tag per WIP - I'm still relatively new to this fandom, so I don't know a ton of people's URLs yet, but I'll do my best!

@affectionatelyrs, @inexplicablymine, @read-and-write-, and um... I genuinely don't know anyone's URLs, so I'll just leave it open 😂 if you see this somehow and you're like, "hey, Ky, why didn't you tag ME?" I tagged you in my heart, I just don't know where to find you 😭

[needsmorewlw]

do you have any hcs about the counselors drinking?? Like who gets drunk the fastest/slowest what kinda drunks they are 💕

The only one I've actively thought about was Dylan with this post but yeah I'll do the rest 👀

They're all like 17/18 so none of them have developed tolerances yet, except maybe Jacob and Kaitlyn. I'll explain below but here's a summary if you don't wanna read the rest

Big boys, big drinks: Jacob, Dylan and Nick.

They know how to hold it so they can party : Ryan, Kaitlyn, Max

White girl wasted: Emma, Laura and Abi.

Dylan

Getting him out of the way first. Just read the linked post honestly. We basically have a solid canon showing of his blood taking WAY longer to get infected. And since getting drunk depends on blood to alcohol level, my only opinion is that this man is the heathen you see doing multiple shots before people have finished their first drink, just so he's on their level.

Also he's a cuddly drunk and his lap is a magnet. Whenever he sits down it takes 0.02 seconds for one of his drunk friends to snatch up that prime real estate. And being drunk just heightens his personality. Talks way more, just constantly talking.

This also lines up with the Stoner!Dylan hc. Drinking is too expensive for him so he gets high instead.

Kaitlyn

There's a bunch of stuff about a high % of east Asians having a genetically lower alcohol tolerance but I think Kaitlyn dodged that bullet. Everyone thinks that because she's small she'll get drunk crazy fast and I think she used to, but she and Jacob party so often it's not a problem anymore, she knows how to extend her lifeline (eating certain food, taking breaks etc)

I see her being another heightened personality drunk. It just intensifies her already existing traits. Eg; she's the mother hen who can be ten drinks in and look after the people who have passed out. She'll be mad about it and pretend not to care but she secretly cares alot

Jacob

Jacob is a big boy and it takes it forever to get drunk. IF he drinks like a normal person and not a frat boy. Which he does not. He will drink like a fish before anyone can stop him so he's rolling around and passed TF out by 10pm.

Before he passes out though (which he does consistently. He's THAT friend.) He's so... incredibly loud. Noise complaints from neighbours are specifically targeted at him. Also he's maniac on the dancefloor and he's dancing like he's never dance before.

And yes I am biased about Jacob and Dylan being chaotic drinking buddies. Dylan enables the hell out of Jacob everytime.

Emma + Laura

I'm putting these two together because you KNOW they get classic white girl wasted. They'll do two or three shots with Jacob and Dylan and be set for the rest of the night. The only difference is how they act.

Emma is also a dance machine + constantly has her phone out filming herself or her friends. Her shoes are off by the time she's finished her second drink. By the end of the night you'll either find her curled up in a blanket inside or laying on the grass in the backyard.

Laura is a giggly drunk AND a cuddly drunk. She loves hanging around Dylan for both of these reasons but only if Max is not available for hugs because he's off being a drunk menace. She finishes two drinks and no matter what Max is doing, she will find him and she will cuddle him.

Ryan

Ryan's very self aware of his own drunkenness (angst hc, but I think his mom's a drunk so he's kinda in his own head about drinking) but he can hold his own and you'll never see him stumbling around or anything.

You think it takes longer than it actually does for him to get drunk simply because he's so good at hiding it and acting normal. But if he gets to 8+ drinks he starts getting giggly and flirty. He'll just sit there and make dirty jokes (mostly @ Dylan) and that's usually the sign that he's tipsy.

Also he had incredible aim and he's really good at beer pong. Him and Kaitlyn are an undefeated duos team.

Nick

Nick is an Aussie he absolutely has the highest tolerance. He'll join in with the shots at the beginning and show absolutely no sign of being affected.

He's the type of drunk who just watches everyone else downfall. He's a sweet boy so if he sees someone struggling he'll step in. But mostly he sits in a chair giggling at everyone else's antics. His lap is also prime real estate. Him and Dylan have those Long Boy Legs™ that are just so comfy to sit on.

Abi

Abi typically doesn't drink and there's a reason for it because she cannot hold it. Three drinks and she's ready to curl up and go to sleep.

BUT if she had a big meal and pushes through the initial sleepiness, then she's a full on party girl. She moves in phases like Amy from b99. She's the type who sings and dances and jumps around and bugs everyone to play more drinking games even though they all know she's ten minutes from passing out.

Max

Left Max till last because I'm convinced he's a menace. He has an alright tolerance but it's what he does with it that makes him a true menace.

Everytime you see him he has deshevelled or less clothing than when he started. He will convince Laura to swap shirts with him no matter how tiny a top she's wearing. He'll be right there with Jacob saying "hey watch me do *blatantly dangerous thing*". Kaitlyn or Nick has to confiscate his car keys at the beginning of the night so he doesn't try to do a McDonald's run.

You will catch him lying on the ground Zooming in on a picture of Lauras face.

Proposal Cookies

~Leonardo~

My heart is so full.

Liv is awake.

Liv. Is. Awake.

I let out a sigh of relief as I take another sip of my tea.

I can't remember the last time I actually enjoyed my morning tea.

Actually… 

I can't remember the last time I had my morning tea.

As I'm thinking over the last few days' events, Mike stumbles into the kitchen.

He looks like hell.

"You're up awfully early," I tell him, furrowing my brow ridge as he spins to look at me in surprise.

Oh geez. He looks way worse than I initially thought.

"Rough night?" I ask as he stumbles to the chair across from me, cradling his head in his arms that are laying on the table.

"Ashley's having nightmares, still," he mumbles to his arm.

"The one about the police station with that creep?" Asks Don.

What the? I didn't even hear him come into the kitchen.

"Mhm…" agrees Mike, unphased by Don's magical appearance.

"You look like shit," Mike giggles, lifting his head as he stares at Don.

I turn to study my brother's face, and Mike is right. He looks like hell too.

"And you're the picture of beauty," Don sasses Mike, making me chuckle.

"Is everything alright, Don?" I ask him.

"Yea. I just… I'm having really strange dreams," he tells us.

"It's all that meditation. It's screwing with your brain," says Raph as he saunters into the kitchen, headed right for the pot of coffee Don is making.

Raph? Coffee? Alright. Maybe I'm still in bed asleep.

"You feeling alright there bro?" Mike asks Raph, concern spilled across his face as he watches Raph pouring himself some coffee.

"Hmm?" Raph hums, his eyes darting around the room to each of us, who are all staring at him in horror.

"Coffee??" squeaks Don.

"Oh!" He says with a smile, "Michelle is on her way down to join Dad for breakfast. I thought I'd make her some coffee," he says, suddenly shy.

I glance at my other two brothers and we all have the same knowing smirk on our faces.

They're adorable, really. Just oblivious.

"Breakfast! Oh shit," Mike says, jumping up. "That's the whole reason I came in here!" He says in half a panic.

"What's the big deal?" Asks Don.

"I wanted to make some of those oversized cinnamon rolls with glaze that Ashley loves so much, before she has to leave for work!" he tells us as he hurriedly gets out his ingredients and tools.

"You want help?" I ask him.

"I would love help. Do you mind starting the dough while I mash the bananas and the cinnamon together?" he pleads.

I smile and get up to make the dough.

Don and Raph take a seat at the table and watch as Mike and I dance around each other in the kitchen with practiced ease.

I've always loved helping Mike in the kitchen. It's really nice seeing him in his element, and taking directions from him while he's in the zone. He's undoubtedly a natural leader.

But what I especially enjoy is watching him get into what he's working on; he's always so relaxed and peaceful. His entire demeanor changes. It's almost like it's meditative for him.

🍪🥣🍪🥣🍪🥣🍪🥣🍪🥣🍪🥣

I'm making two mugs of black tea just as the cinnamon buns are coming out of the oven. Black tea will compliment the cinnamon and sweetness of the breakfast pastry.

The kitchen suddenly becomes very lively as the rest of the household and Michelle make their way into the kitchen.

*Gasp* "You made cinnamon rolls?" asks Liv, a bright smile spreading across her face. She turns and looks at me, "Do you have any black tea I could have?" She asks sweetly, as Ashley walks with her arm in arm to the breakfast bar.

She knows how to pair tea to food…

That's it. 

I'm officially in love with this woman.

I walk over and set a tea mat and her mug of black tea down in front of her.

She wraps her hands around the mug and looks up at me, her gaze flicking from my eyes to my mouth and then back again. 

Those pretty lips of hers are begging for immediate attention.

I reach out and put her hair behind her ear, my hand cupping her face as it's on its way back.

One of her hands leaves the mug and wraps itself around the wrist of the hand that's cradling her face.

The movement is small, but I don't miss it.

She pulls my arm toward her - just a little - as her eyes stay focused on my lips.

Shit.

I'm leaning in when I hear Master Splinter clearing his throat, effectively snapping me out of my descent to Liv's slightly parted lips, my hand slowly dropping down to my side.

"I have been informed that you make wonderful chocolate chip cookies, Evelyn," says Master Splinter.

But Liv is in her own world… as she stares at my lips.

"Liv," Ashley nudges her cousin, "Master Splinter is talking to you," she whispers.

Liv just nods, dreamily.

The whole kitchen has stopped and Liv is now the focal point of the room, while her eyes are still trained on my mouth.

I can't help but smirk.

I reach out again and cradle her face. She turns into my hand, causing my breath to catch momentarily as her pout brushes against my palm.

"Love… uh, Liv," I correct myself quickly, hoping no one caught my slip up.

She looks up at me with eyes that are begging me to bring her back to the bedroom.

"Master Splinter wants to know about the cookies you bake," I whisper to the blonde beauty in front of me.

It takes her a moment, but she blinks herself back to reality, her face flushing while her eyes grow to the size of Jupiter.

"Cookies?!" She panics through a whisper.

"You make chocolate chip cookies?" I ask softly.

She nods frantically, looking mortified that she has gotten caught up in our little moment.

"Proposal Cookies!" Ashley tells Master Splinter with a smile, trying to save her cousin from horrendous embarrassment.

"Proposal Cookies?" Inquires Michelle as Raph opens a folding chair for her, that he just brought into the kitchen.

Liv smiles bashfully, "Yeah… I get teased by this one," she says, pointing her thumb over her shoulder at Ashley, "because every time I make them for a company party or community event, people always tell me they'd marry me on the spot or they ask for my hand in marriage after their first bite," she explains, as her cheeks turn a pretty pink.

Well. There will be no more Proposal Cookies made for anyone outside of friends and family.

"These sound like quite the cookies," Master Splinter says with a smile on his lips.

"Liv! You should totally make some for everyone!" Ashley says excitedly, glancing at Mike.

The silent conversation is so quick I almost miss it.

"I can help if you'd like!" Mike says, glancing at me.

"What do you think?" I ask her. "I know I'd love to try these cookies," I smile warmly.

"Really? You wouldn't mind if I used your kitchen?" Liv asks Mike, hope and happiness brightening her already stunning features.

"I would be insulted if you didn't want to make these cookies in my kitchen," Mike tells her, pulling the biggest smile from her that I've seen in a while.

Good. Maybe this will raise her spirits.

"I, too, look forward to these cookies," says Master Splinter. "But perhaps we can rename them," he winks.

KING OF OVER SHARING

(don't mind me posting this quickie....it's less research intensive than my other drafts and voting is in full swing - collecting every ten minutes 😵‍💫.....as I say this I engaged my PicsArt and had to repost because it didn't work the first time 🙃)

Jungkook.....Jungkookie...........JK 😒

What can I say? He said it....we all heard it....thought about it.....and now it's time to discuss 💆🏻‍♀️

He answers the questions that ain't even been asked!!!!

Nah, cause when you're asked to describe your bro wouldn't you talk about his awesome dancing? Singing? His coolness on stage??? (oh wait 🤔).....but in this instance shameless flirting is what you like about him and his kind personality and his eye smile.... (😳 I- STOP IT NO ONE ASKED IF YOU'D DATE HIM)

(And we can't forget this over sharing moment) 😩

Look at that camera side eye 👀

He's simultaneously telling us he's gonna do what he wants and to hop off his dick about it. (He ain't invite you to sit there.) 🗣️ SO WHAT!!!

But bro...when you think about it - who is he watching work? Who is he around to watch them do their jobs and do it well? Beginning product to end product? With as busy as he is and his wonky work schedule???

1) his members

2) BH staff (make up artists, stylists, managers, producers)

3) other idols??? (end product, sure, maybe a few rehearsals....but start to finish????)

3) the president of South Korea (they've been in some important meetings together 🤷🏻‍♀️)

(nah, it's Jimin)

(side story: this is the 2nd time I'm trying to post this. And I found this tweet after my first time didn't work. FATE I TELL YA!!!)

This one I know was partly about the tone or language he used with Jimin...his approach to saying this, but the point stands - Jimin's performance is the one he watches and admires.

He doesn't miss these opportunities to say something that is off standard script for hyung-donsaeng relationships and also to talk about how much he admires Jimin.

The love and admiration (just outside of thinking they're probably dating) that JK has for Jimin is massive. They couldn't get away with the copycat jokes otherwise.

The support we've seen them provide for each other...knowing each other's stage dances, being there during rehearsals, Jungkook still singing Serendipity, their "You are me, I am you" thing, visiting Jimin's room multiple times a day on tour just hanging out....

This is a deep relationship.....DEEP.

💜

Bonus 1: when JK doesn't know what to say he ain't saying shit. Seriously avoided even answering the question.....they all moved off it. 👀

Bonus 2: When Jimin over shares, but it's all hunky-dory

And this hotly debated gem

So what I'll say about this is that:

1) this still isn't an exact label on their relationship

2) I haven't heard JK call Jimin chingu (friend) despite their obvious closeness and his comfort level dropping the honorifics (but let me know if you have)

3) there's no context to this so trying to gauge what Jimin might have meant without simply and directly translating what he said is putting your own spin on it -> whatever hang ups or beliefs you might have and might not share with Jimin.

Hey Col! How about 34 & 20 (if you haven’t answered those!) for the asks?? Love ya!

'Best of 2021' Asks!

Hey bud! Hope you're having a great day <3

34: WIPs for 2022 👀

This fucking Firefighter!Bucky is going to be posted in 2022 even if it kills me!!!! I'm hoping to get a masterlist posted in the next couple of weeks if I can get my act together. :) And I have a title I think finally.... Oh also @w0nderw0man91 low key gave me the idea to maybe do a zombie apocalypse fic??? That may never happen but hey it could be fun lmao.

20: closing lines

Both closing lines for The Sergeant's Heart make me teary every time I read them in the best way. <3

Epilogue </3

A thousand images ran through your head in that moment.

A boy with unruly hair climbing a tree in the woods by a lake, smiling from ear to ear.

Two figures dancing in the kitchen, wrapped in each other's arms, looking at each other with complete adoration.

A group of people sitting around a fire, drinking and laughing in the midst of chaos and destruction.

Sitting in a fox hole, resting your head on the shoulder of a blue-eyed soldier as you looked up at the stars, filled with a sense of true peace.

The last thing you felt were lips lightly pressed against your hand.

Epilogue <3

Blue eyes met yours once more, filled with nothing but pure affection. “I love you, Y/n.”

“I love you too, Buck.”

“MOOOOOOM! DAAAAAD!” A crash echoed upstairs.

Bucky sighed. “Alright, let’s put an end to this war.”

“Hopefully no one needs a medic.”

He laughed. “If they do, I think I know someone we can call.” He pulled you by the hand as you both walked inside, Frank continuing to sing softly in the midst of whatever chaos you were about to face.

“Oh really?” You asked sarcastically.

He turned to wink at you. “Yeah, best one in the whole damn world. Gorgeous as hell, too. I bet she might even offer a friends and family discount.”

You giggled. “Sounds like quite a woman.”

He paused at the foot of the stairs, leaning forward for another kiss.

“She’s my whole heart.”

I'm not sure if this counts or if I was supposed to put the literal last lines of the fic but eff it IT'S MY INBOX I'LL DO WHAT I WANT :,)

[jeongjaebae]

Hi ... I think you're used to this by now, but ... I have written another essay for you! 😂

Um ... yes .. Hyunjae has most definitely won my heart by this stage 👀 I wanted to make my first posts on that blog all Hyunjae considering I literally named it after him HAHA That explains the massive influx of Hyunjae posts but!! I'm getting to the other members now lol with a bit of Hyunjae sprinkled in between!

Hm I'm not entirely sure if having both bias and bias wrecker in a 'line' happens in SVT! Although a lot of people have biases based on age (e.g. 95line), or units. My biaswreckers are S.Coups and Jeonghan though, so mine isn't really a line, as far as I know? lol

Omg I'm only watching the behind video for the Seasons Greetings now! Younghoon as an archer and Juyeon as a shooter seem appropriate - they've shot me straight in my heart! And Eric doing American football sdlfjskldfjkls And ... HYUNJAE AS A HOCKEY PLAYER AHHHHHH LSKJDFKLSDJFLKSDKL THIS IS SO GREAT, THANK YOU FOR TELLING ME ABOUT THIS HE'S SO CUTE IN HIS UNIFORM I HAVE A BIG FAT CRUSH ON HIM OK

Ooooh I don't watch KDramas consistently anymore but I'll put Younghoon's ones on my to-watch list! Might solidify his position even further on my biaswrecker list hehe

Yeah I used to find it tough remembering all of SJ's names and faces but ... I think it's gotten easier each time I decide to learn about a new big group haha And it looks extra cool when these big groups dance in sync and stuff! And there's always so many possible combinations for things like unit songs / performances, photoshoots, and interviews!

Lol I think I vaguely remembering there being a Wedding Dress phase back when I was in high school? Or a Haru Haru phase! I remember some classmates being pretty keen on KDramas when I was in high school, and at the time, I thought they were being ridiculous (and now look where I am!) lol

Nah I'm not really a gamer, I just like playing Superstar rhythm games A LOT (too much) and I lurk a lot on their reddits a lot so I've learnt a lot of the lingo lol. I've also watched the behind videos of TBZ playing SSTBZ and it's just so funny to see them struggle! And I also saw their tweets complaining about Out of Control being so difficult, which was really funny!

Lol maybe it's Younghoon's Leo traits coming out, I'm convinced S.Coups in SVT also does the same (they literally have the same birthday - although different years) sklfjdkslj that guy says some of the cheesiest stuff sometimes I swear 😩

Nuuuuuuuu that compilation of Hyunjae whining IS JUST TOO CUTE!!!! He sounds a bit like a kid but!!! SO CUTEEEEEEEEEE And he like nearly pouts too lsdkfjldksjflsdk And no???? I haven't seen him hugging people or hiding behind them when he's embarrassed!!! I must take greater note of that from now on! Also I was watching TBZ on Weekly Idol during their Thrill-ing promotions and THIS PART GOT ME SO BAD!!!!!!!! JUYEON BEING RIDICULOUSLY HEART-FLUTTERING AND HYUNJAE BEING ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE LSDJFLKSDJS Basically, everyone else's reactions = my reactions!

Oooh yes I definitely love re-reading fics, and especially when I start getting to actually know the group too! I also now totally understand why you wrote the 'Bad at being bad' fic for Hyunjae - he's a total sweetie, he could never really be a bad boy lol

Oh my my Hyunjae and Juyeon's photoshoots together really ARE something! They look so good tlskjdfkljdsl Also, why is their ship name Jumil? I get that Juyeon's is the 'Ju' part, but where does the 'mil' come from for Hyunjae? 🤔

Yeah chaeunwoos needed a name for a non-main-boygroup blog, and I watched True Beauty recently, and Cha Eunwoo really got me sflkdjlsjflksjd (although I always thought he was pretty handsome) So that's why I named that blog after him haha But to be totally honest, I only listen to ASTRO's songs on a very casual basis. That side blog used to be named 'shawoltzen' - for Shawol + NCTzen, but yeah that side blog is pretty much for everything that does not have a dedicated blog! And I change usernames on that blog whenever I go through a phase lol (I'm pretty sure I had an EXO-related name there at one point) But anytime I start to feel myself getting too attached, I'm now inclined to create a new blog for them haha I'm probably going to keep all my reblogs of your fics on that blog though since I do reblog a bunch of fics there haha and I want to remember how I fell into TBZ by reading your fics HAHA

I think I've always seen Juyeon as handsome but ... nearly unattainably so, so while I started off with thinking that he might be my bias, Hyunjae is now the winner of my heart lol and when I see him, I think, 'yup this guy is totally my type' HAHA Sure, I definitely appreciate Juyeon but I think I would admire from afar in real life but wouldn't really think about being with that much, whereas for Hyunjae, I think I'd actually want to be around him a lot and hear him laugh and talk and sing in that sweet sweet voice of his 🥺 I'M SORRY I'M BEING SAPPY HAHAHA

I was having a think about what do all my biases have in common and ... they all have the surname Lee? 😂 Lee Donghae, Lee Seokmin, Lee Minho (Lee Know), Lee Jaehyun (Hyunjae) HAHA I mean, it's not much of a connection LOLOLOL but it's a coincidence! Hmmm I'd also like to think that they have very ... solid noses HAHA Also girrrllllll I think your analysis of what guy I like is pretttyyyyy spot on! Definitely love a guy who makes me laugh and that whole thing about unpredictable enough to keep me on my toes? Sounds like me and my Aquarius traits to a tee 😂 How can you already read me so well after a few of my asks! 😱 But then again, I guess you're a writer, you must have good intuition hehe

Also just wanted to say that I've been rewatching the Thrill Ride MV since actually picking out Hyunjae as a bias and ... all those shots of him being hot boy summer hit different! Including his dumb winks 😭 And similarly with Christmassy! I didn't think much of Hyunjae initially in that MV (too focused on footballer!Juyeon, flirty!Sunwoo, and a very cute Younghoon) until I noticed a very cute guy at the beginning (you know, the bit where he looks at like the Instagram stories of TBZ) and I thought his side profile and laugh were cute HEHE

Oooh you definitely sound like you like darker songs from SVT! Although To You is a bit cheerier haha Hmmm have you tried listening to Getting Closer as well? Oh what about 24/7 (although not totally sure that's a 'dark' song ...) Bittersweet is really good! I think Mingyu / Wonwoo could definitely have potential as a future unit! I'm convinced there's something different about hearing rappers sing~ hehe Wait about the whole dark songs thing - is this why your fave TBZ song is Drink It lololol

I also may or may not have opened a new Twitter account dedicated to reblogging TBZ lol (my usual Twitter account is a biiiiiiigggg mess of everything - mostly reblogging SJ, SVT and SKZ with a side of everything else HAHA)

oH I didn't realize it before when I was creating my TBZ sideblog, but I have now opened up asks / submissions, so definitely feel free to drop by with Hyunjae TBZ pics anytime! 😃

And lastly! (Finally!) I totally forgot to mention last time, but you can tag my asks with my name - 'natalie' or 'nat' is fine 😊

UR DOWN SOOOOO BAAAAAD FOR HIM AHAHA #natwhippedera and PLEASE it's more like hyunjae ft. other members sprinkled in between 🤡 oh but do you ever switch biases? or go through phases? i feel like i could never just pick one member.... like why have a dish when you can have a buffet!!

ahh jeonghan has caught my eye recently!! i love how he's kinda snakey? evil? during games, like during that mousebusters gose ep when he said to just spray jun's face, i was like..... why is that something i'd say........ LMAOO. i'm nearly done gose 2020 and in the TTT eps.... when they drive.... why is that so attractive...............................

juyeon as a shooter ALDKJFK WAIT i have the perf meme for that AHAHA. hyunjae would totally be that annoying hockey player who skates towards you really fast to scare you and then sprays ice at you with his side stop LOL hockey player!hyunjae x figure skater!y/n 👀 ah ngl younghoon didn't make it onto my bias list until i watched love revolution! there was something about him there that made him more attractive than he is in tbz, maybe bc his character swears sooo much it's refreshing HAHA

oh yeahhh it seemed impossible to remember so many names and faces at first but here we are :') did you ever get hyunjae/eric/sangyeon mixed up? the first few performances i watched i could barely tell who was who LOL. big groups are definitely fun, i love it when fic writers try to fit all the members into the fic and give them cameos here and there!!

omg same i definitely thought my classmates were being so cringe at the time when they were speaking like koreaboos/weebs :') it was a phase for them yet i'm still here... 10 years later aldkfjl. have you watched a lot of kdramas? i've probably watched more since the pandemic started than i ever have before it haha

ohhhh i see, omg have you had bad experiences with league too 🙃 i find it so endearing how juyeon's still playing sstbz on normal mode and he's so proud when he three stars it aHHHH and how he has a normal amount of diamonds!! he's too cute!!

i'm sure you've started noticing all of hj's mannerisms by now 🥴ALDKJF THE TIE! it made your heart flutter right?? i knew jumil was the most popular ship when i entered the fandom but didn't see it for the longest time, and yet... somehow even the maverick mv director knew LMAOO. the "mil" part of jumil comes from hyunjae's "mirae" stan name since hyunjae = present / mirae = future

oooh that is an interesting thing to do with your blog :O i'm always too indecisive to change my urls haha. oh but have you read the true beauty webtoon? eunwoo fit the character but suho actually reminds me of juyeon!!! like the quiet and handsome bff turned lover 🥺 omg did you stan like... all the sm boy groups at some point? i also went through an exo/nct phase LOL. but will wait and see what you change your url to next 👀

YOU'RE SO WHIPPED I'M ADKLFJADKLJFKLAJJ. are you a words of affirmation type of person 🤔 omg THE LEE THING ok i was about to be like... there's no way she's that delusional AHAHA (omg lee dongmin will fit very nicely on your list, ms chaeunw00s hehe). you're right they do have very nice noses!! and... i think you'll quickly begin to notice that i psychoanalyze everyone and everything :'') so your asks and blogging habits were enough to get a sense of your personality and it's also why i had a feeling ju wasn't gonna make it to the top of your bias list LOL. hyunjae seems like he'd match your energy better and be able to keep you interested!!

i......... ngl i think you've watched their mvs way more than i have at this point HAHA. but ok i do know the feeling of going back to old moments to specifically Notice your bias after finally picking one :'') do your eyes zoom in on hyunjae sitting there in shows/interviews even when he says nothing akldjfka LIKE I SAID ur in the honeymoon phase ahhHHh

oh you consider to you cheery? i find it angsty ngl, like maybe a nostalgic summer vibe perhaps? ooh yes i did like getting closer but 24/7 is a little slow 😅 and yeah wonwoo and mingyu should totally have more unit projects, their voices are so soothing in bittersweet! my music taste is quite predictable tbh.... other than drink it, my other fave tbz songs would be checkmate, kingdom come, scar, reveal (if you're familiar with music theory i'd say the main elements i look for are a minor key and V chords ahaha). oh but while we're here lemme throw in some shameless self promo 🤡

omg twitter too eh, you say it's for tbz but let's be real it's mostly for hyunjae ft. sprinkles of tbz members HAHA
