#nace complains but he loves it

[lovvecherrymotion]

Nace going to the shower, Jan following with his phone out.

N: "Can I.. just one quiet shower please?.."

J: "It's what fans want. Can't help it." *snaps a picture*

(plot twist: fans don't want it. Jan wants it.)

i mean, i don't think the fans mind, but i think jan might be the one who wants it the most 😌

[me-sploh-rada-imas]

finally figured out what jan and nace talk about during gigs

[izpira-se-zlato]

Milan, 27.03.24

Gig report! Can't believe there's only two to go after this one :o (for me)

I showed up at 4:45pm (bc I'd chosen to get food at the station) and was still a lower number than in Munich at 2pm. Yeah.

didn't really queue thus, which always makes gigs a bit… different. I miss chatting with people before gigs, but I hadn't wanted to fly (even though after the venue move that would have been even easier. But also catching a 7:30 flight the morning after a gig. Yeah, no)

the queue kinda fell apart because you needed a membership card to get into the venue. We didn't have to pay. But they had to handwrite it for us. Emotions ran a little high

the venue was. Something. Sorta a… festival tent? Not quite outdoors, but definitely Interesting

due to the proximity to the airport, the radio frequencies from planes kept interfering with the equipment. Bojan attempted to explain it to us, but he didn't know it himself and thus mostly listened. I feared for the worst at that point, ngl. They didn't look particularly angry to me, but Bojan was like, "Don't be angry, Jan!" so I was like 😬

Bojan tried to get Jure and then also Nace to jam while they were figuring out their tech issues (Always Something Problem), but it meant Jan couldn't hear himself enough and so we just watched him wander on stage while Bojan tried to entertain us

We got ASTP and Proti Toku for soundchek. My first ASTP in 12 gigs on this tour! Curious to see what we'll get today

Bojan repeatedly called Jan "Jenzo" and then later claimed "Just so you know, Jan's Italian name is Jenzo!" with which the crowd disagreed (and let him know that it should be Gianni)

soundcheck was pretty cold and I almost regretted not having taken my jacket (but it did warm up)

the opener was a brass band. Unexpected but actually fun. Fit the gig, somehow

they played a lot of medleys of known songs and the crowd was pretty into it

JC! God, I barely can believe that it was the second-to-last tie I saw him live like that. I love his acoustic set a lot (in particular the first and last songs xD)

He accidentally unplugged his guitar last night. Kinda a funny moment

pretty sure the hype list was changed. Dirty Little Secret made it into the cut, and to our surprise, Zitti e Buoni didn't. Weird choice, Primož (or so I assume)

Actual gig!

We got Jan in a capybaster shirt and Nace in the cosy sweater and Bojan in a buttoned shirt he got gifted during soundcheck and Jure in the gorgeous metallic sweater and Kris in another cozy sweater

The Jance was off the fucking charts, jfc I hate them idk what was in the air. Probably hadn't seen each other all day (I'm not actually complaining)

We got SSOL opener into… Ne Bi Smel into Ona into Tokio

During Ne Bi Smel Jan was standing in front of Nace's mic so Nace had to push him away to sing the backing vocals (grinning all the while)

Bojan went, "This night is gonna be multilingual" so I was like, oh, Tokio, but no! "We had English, then Slovene, now we're gonna add some Serbian!" Changing his quips for the final stretch, huh?

Nace singing fucking "Dok tebe sunce greje, mi amore" at Jan. I hate him (While the sun warms you up, my love, according to lyrics translate)

They also played at each other during NBS because of course they did

Jan back on Jure's snare drum for the end. Multi-instrumentalist

Tokio! I didn't catch it on video, but Nace leaned in and bumped his nose into Jan's breast? Kissed his coat? I have no clue what he did but I was like ??? Nace?

At the end, they chased each ohter in circles again, and Nace either went down on one knee in front of Jan or almost did so. When the lights came back on, Nace patted Jan's chest while laughing (couldn't make out Jan's expression)

before NGVOT, Nace was thrown bread. A plushie? Actual bread? I don't know

Nace kept looking over at Jan during NGVOT, and when Jan finally met his gaze, he turned to him so they played at each other. Jan was making a mock-surprised grimacing face and playing? And then they just. Turned back to the front. What the fuck, guys

they just. kept looking at each other. Jan looking at Nace while Nace was doing backing vocals. Nace looking back as soon as he was done. Them swaying in sync while Nace smiled smugly about it. And at the end, they did the swaying like. In opposite cycles? So both sawying in and both swaying away, until Nace turned and bent his knees a little and yelled up into Jan's face. Yeah idk.

we didn't only get Bluza but got it before Šta bih ja

Kris came over to hug Jan during Bluza 🥰😭

Jan's expressions during the ending were. Something 😂

more silliness from Jan and Nace during Šta bih ja

Bojan: "This is a new song! Why do you know it"

also uh. Synchronised hip thrusting while facing each other at the end of the song. Yeah. Jfc remember you're on a stage, guys

Jan either messed up the opening of Demoni or his guitar gave out for a hot second but he was wearing a very oops expression

Jan grasped Nace's shoulders during Demoni and I think spoke the words at him? Or said something else? But that wouldn't make sense? Nace nodded and patted Jan's chest in turn

Got the Demoni scream

PiJano Padam. Bojan looked really tired during that song. Jfc get this man to take a break

Intense staring at each other at the beginning of Umazane until Nace said something to Jan and then both grinned and Nace wandered off

Nace was pretty silly at the start of the karaoke bit and like. gestured at Jan theatrically and then mimed falling over. Dork

We got the OG OG Umazane Misli chorus. The one Bojan wrote in a hurry the first time they performed it. Made my night -- and Kris's because it's where the very smiley/laughing Kris pics during UM came from

@kurooscoffee/@jokeroutsubs had prepared UNO reserve cards to make the boys sing. Which made the rounds already but gaaah it was !!!!!!

Jan declaiming the verse because "[he] can't sing so [he's] not gonna sing. [He's] gonna interpret it." And interpret he did😂

Nace with the "oh oh" before he started jfc the dork

Jan ducking under Nace's arm to play his bass after he failed to catch Nace's attention to offer, and then just. Going for it.

Nace slinging an arm around Jan

Nace singing "morning smells like you" right at Jan while Jan keeps looking up at him from playing chords on Nace's bass

Kris "Jan! Play, play the melody, I need the harmony!" (and Jan did)

god we need more Kris singing plssss

Kris sang the verse mostly at Nace

Jure going "oooh fuck!" and not knowing the entire lyrics 😂😂 Jance this and Jance that, but that made my night

I didn't see Bojan at barricade cheering his band mates on but he was and just. Gah. It was such a wholesome thing I hate them

Nace posed for pictures with a silly expression, and then Jance posed for a combined heart for someone

Plastika saw Bojan caress Nace and then hug Jan from behind (no choking tho)

During Novi Val, Jance stood off to the side being Jance for quite a while, while Jure had his hand weirdly on Bojan's back?

They looked really exhausted by the end which. Mood.

Post gig:

The venue had a scrolling LED screen that scrolled "Everybody's Waiting At The Ball" (thanks, Kris, for the restory!)

Had a chat with Dean (lovely) and JC Stewart (also lovely) and learned that JC and Conor used to live together which is why JC was out with Conor to be introduced to the boys (allegedly before Christmas, though JC wasn't 100%)

hung around the gate after the show even though it was pretty clear they wouldn't say hi, but it gave us a chance to see Mark (who'd surprised the boys with a visit) as he was waiting for someone to let him off the venue grounds. "Well, they'll have to open this at some point, they ordered McDonald's!"

Spoiler: they did not open the gate for McDonalds. Primož tried to scale it, which almost worked but looked dangerous, and so the delivery person threw it over the top. It was a spectacle

by that point, Mark had been let out the old-fashioned way though

[saucyjothoughts]

Asking for part 2 of the Martin making sure every band member is taken good care of misli

(Part one here)

Let's see how Nace handles the hipster brat shall we?

(Nsfw below the cut)

Jan didn't mean to be a pain. Okay that was a total lie. He did mean to be a pain. He loved getting under a dominant's skin, watching their jaw tighten and their words become icy as they scolded him, but really he loved being pinned down afterwards, his mouth held open so he didn't bite down as he was face fucked and he loved seeing the glit in his dominant's eye when he finally submitted to them.

Maybe he shouldn't have pushed it though, maybe it wasn't his best idea to fight so hard when Nace held him down considering his current dominant and his previous dominant were both in the room and eager to tame him.

He growled when Nace held his jaw open and Martin shoved the spider gag in his mouth, forcing it wide open to be used freely. The straps were handcrafted leather and pulled tight around his head. Fucking Hipster.

The cuffs attaching his wrists to his ankles felt unnecessary to him but he wasn't in much position to complain, not with Martin's cock in his mouth and Nace's fingers in his ass, opening him up to be properly played with.

"You just had to try and make me look like I couldn't handle you, didn't you? How dare you try to embarrass me in front of Martin you little brat," Nace hissed, his fingers stretching Jan wider and maybe a bit rougher than usual. Jan let out a mocking sound that earned him a slap on his cheek from Martin and a pinch on his ass from Nace.

"He's always worse with an audience. But I'm impressed at how quickly you got the cuffs on him," Martin swore as he moved his hips, his balls slapping against Jan's chin and one hand pulling on his hair roughly

Nace slid into Jan harshly, his dick so much bigger that his fingers causing Jan to whine and moan around Martin. He tried to struggle, to push back or pull away even he wasn't sure but the restraints did their job, allowing his dominants to pin down his hips and hold his head still with ease.

It was only when he stopped thrashing that they became softer, gentler and Nace's grip loosened. Jan gave up, looking up through his eyelashes at Martin and relaxing his body for Nace. They won. He submitted.

"You ready to take his ass now?" Nace asked as he pulled out, giving a quick slap to Jan's cheek. Martin hummed in agreement and they swapped places, Nace being gracious enough to remove the gag before pushing past Jan's lips, Jan now submissive and pliant and the risk of biting gone.

"Fuck you really stretched him out for me with that big dick of yours," Martin moaned as he pushed in, already setting a brutal pace and pushing Jan's mouth further down on Nace's thick cock.

Jan was in heaven. He loved the punishment but loved being used even more. He knew Martin's body, knew his sounds so intimately that it was no surprise to him when he came, gripping Jan's hips and filling him up with his seed. Jan groaned in frustration when he pulled out, his cock twitching in arousal. He was so close, just a few more pumps and he could have cum himself.

"Are you our fucktoy Jan? A little slut for your daddies cocks?" Nace teased, pushing Jan's hips down so his sensitive dick ground against the mattress, knowing just how to get their sub off. "You're such a whore and you take us so well. Once we break you of course,"

Jan moaned as he came, staining the sheets and his belly, the cum now pouring out of his ass running down his balls and joined the mess between his legs.

He looked up at Nace and the fat dick still in front of him. He nuzzled at it, opening his mouth and sticking his tongue out. He wanted it, no, he needed it. Needed to be filled with cum in both ends.

Nace obliged, shoving his cock down Jan's throat and pumping one, two, three, before squirting his hot load straight down his gullet.

The restraints were removed and soon Jan was cuddled up between them, his head on Nace's broad chest and Martin kissing his neck and shoulders.

"You did so well darling. Nace is taking good care of you I see," Martin told him, his arms around Jan's waist.

"Mmmmph," Jan responded eloquently as Nace kissed the top of his head and stroked his hair. He did have to agree, Nace was very good at taking care of all of them on his own but Jan wouldn't say no to doing this again next time Martin was in town.

[fluffyjothoughts]

I've had an idea based on a very sweet memory of mine. You're having a sleepover with the boys, your best friend, and at first you start out in a makeshift bed on the floor, but it's so uncomfortable that you can't sleep and your tossing is keeping them awake too so they offer to let you share the bed with them. How does it go with each?

STOP THIS IS SO FUCKING ADORABLE I LOVE THIS!!!!!

Kris: You’re laying on the floor, staring up at the ceiling with Kris’ glow in the dark stars adorning your vision (that and the blue light of his phone). You told him you’re going to sleep an hour ago but you just can’t get comfortable. You sigh and shuffle again, turning when Kris suddenly whispers your name out. You turn towards the bed, seeing him peering over the edge and whispering if you’re okay before shyly asking if you’d like to join him to sleep because he doesn’t want you to be uncomfortable. you end up cuddling through the night and wake up in each others arms.

Bojan: Already planning on getting you in bed with him (but only for actual sleep, for now) So as you’re preparing to go to sleep with little to no complaints despite your neck already killing you, he suddenly starts off with “you know… you could always sleep here with me?” and sitting really quietly to hear your answer. When you accept and lay with him he makes an over exaggerated content sound, grabbing you and holding you close.

Jan: Won’t notice it for a while. He’s scrolling through his phone, hearing your shuffling every once in a while, thinking you just move around a lot in your sleep. but when you sigh for the third time in a row, it makes him pause. He discreetly looks over to your side of the bed, seeing you awake and pursing his lips. He turns to be able to see you and asks you if you’d wanna come up to the bed with him. he ends up showing you some guitar reviews and falling asleep with his head resting on yours, phone long forgotten on his stomach.

Jure: Wouldn’t allow it in the first place. He’d complain about wanting to share with you and how he gets cold in the middle of the night alone. While you think he’s joking and you laugh it off, he ends up tugging on your arm and pulls you in the bed with him, throwing his covers over the two of you and snuggling into the crook of your neck with a content sigh.

Nace: Arguably, the shyest of them all. He’s surprised you agreed to a sleepover and even more surprised you agreed to sleep in his room. he’s offered you two to switch, awkwardly grinning and nodding when you assured him that it’s okay and it wouldn’t kill you. You adjusted throughout the evening and each time you did he noted it in his mind and told himself he’d come to a specific number of quiet complaints before offering you to come up to him. he ends up ignoring it and just gently tugging on your sleeve, offering some of his bed to you, whooping to himself when you agree. cuddles you but is slightly rigid until he falls asleep.

hiiii I saw you reblogging that kiss thingy, I'd like to suggest Jance + 10 💚

I'm so sorry this took forever, but I hope you enjoy it! (It just goes to show nothing is ever lost in my inbox, just... slow 😅) Thank you for the request! ❤️ 10. ... desperately

The lock has barely clicked shut behind him before Jan is in his arms, the force knocking him back into the front door. The kiss is all frenzy and no finesse, a bruising mess of teeth and tongues and heat as Jan pushes him back into the wood and he pulls Jan into him. And he’s not complaining. It’s been a long few weeks on tour, with barely a moment to snatch for just the two of them. A cramped tour bus is hardly the right environment to get close to one another without someone or other stumbling across them, only to rush off again with a shout of “I didn’t see anything!” (Or so he’s heard. Hypothetically.) “What’s this all about?” he asks teasingly as they break apart, as if he doesn’t know, as if it’s not exactly the same for him, as if there hasn’t been this tension building ever faster between them all day as they drew closer to home. Jan shoots him a quick glance that’s so deadpan it makes him laugh. “If you can’t guess, I really don’t know what to tell you.” Jan replies, before darting in to recapture Nace’s lips with his own. His fingers find the buttons of Nace’s shirt at the same time, so of course Nace can’t resist pulling him in by his belt loops, deepening the kiss. He feels as much as hears Jan’s moan in response right before the guitarist seems to give up on the buttons halfway down. “You’re distracting me.” Jan says accusingly, still close enough for their lips to brush as he speaks. Nace shrugs, securing his hands on the other man’s hips to make sure he stays as close as possible. “That seems like a you problem.” he says, pressing another quick kiss to his mouth. “Come on, we should go to the bedroom.” He tries to encourage Jan to step back, only to be met with resistance as Jan shakes his head. “I have no idea where that is.” he says, moving in for another kiss. Nace turns his head slightly so Jan can only catch the corner of his mouth. “Yes you do.” “Not since you moved.” “You’ve been here before.” Nace points out. Jan shrugs, toying with the next button down on Nace’s shirt. His breath hitches as the guitarist’s callused fingers brush his bare chest almost by accident – a long few weeks indeed. “Then I’ve clearly forgotten.” “It’s right over there.” Jan doesn’t even look to where Nace is pointing two doorways down. “That’s too far.” “You’re so lazy.” “I just have other priorities.” “Can’t think what those are.” “I mean, I could spell it out for you, or – ” Nace decides right then and there that that’s enough talking for now. As much as he loves their conversations, they’ve been able to do pretty much nothing but talk for so long that maybe Jan is onto something with these other priorities. He cuts him off with a kiss so sudden and bruising that he catches him off guard enough to push him back against the hallway wall, crowding him in somewhere between the coat rack and the dresser. There might not be any time for talking right now, but judging by the way Jan fists his hands in Nace’s hair, or by the sound he makes as Nace hooks his hands under his thighs to lift him up, he’s a hundred percent in agreement with his plan. - Later, Jan will suddenly recall exactly where Nace’s bedroom is in the new flat, but they won’t make it there for several hours.

Relationships post about Nancy Drew S4

***Warning Spoilers ahead for the whole season up until 410 and theories onward***

After calming down after each episode and looking back at the season as a whole, I know I am in the minority of people who are actually enjoying this season so far and thinking that the writing is BRILLIANT this season. Having said that, here are some thoughts that I have about the relationships going on this season.

The mystery is a whole other topic and I am so intrigued by it. It has so many moving parts I can't quite piece everything together. So I am enjoying that ride as well and can't wait to see how this whole mystery unfolds by the last episode!

**LONG post alert under the cut. Again, spoiler warning for the whole season.**

----------

Again, I am one of the few people who thinks that the writing this season is brilliant. I know I will probably be attacked for this post but I need to get my thoughts out.

As painful as this season has been to Nace, and believe me I get it, I love how the writers are actually depicting their relationship amongst everyone else's. HERE ME OUT:

This season definitely has the Drew Crew growing up. They are still friends and still there for each other, but they are starting their "adult" lives. At the start of the season, we have Nick still co-owning the Claw, *not sure what is going on with the youth center*, and the whole running for council thing, Bess is in charge of the Historical Society, George still co-owns the Claw and is shadowing Judge Abbot and going to school for law, Nancy has her investigative business, and Ace is an assistant at the Morgue.

With that being said, they have also shifted their friend dynamic to an adult friendship dynamic. With the way that the timeline is depicted in the show, with some episodes taking place over just a single day, I'm not surprised at how some relationships are depicted onscreen. It's very realistic.

I know that a lot of people don't like that Ace always seems to be in the morgue and away from the crew, but he IS the only one with an actual 9-5 job that he can't get away from, so this doesn't actually shock me. This is a job he said he loved in 313 so I can see him not wanting to mess that up. With that, Nick still seems to visit him and check in on him, bringing him lunch and making sure he talks to someone at least once a day and Bess seems to go and visit him occasionally and appears to have a great relationship with Rebecca this season which we hear about but don't actually see. As soon as someone needs him, or calls him, he always helps out still while being at "work" so to me, he isn't as distant as some might think he is. And I don't think that the writers are doing him dirty as some people think either. There is a LOT that happens in an episode and it can feel like he is distant but he really isn't. (we get in him scrubs, I'm NOT complaining about that either!)

He is also still with the crew when he can be! He was with everyone in 402 and 403. He was with Nick at the Claw in 404/405? He was with everyone in rescuing Nancy in 406, playing the game in 407, and obviously the whole of 408, except the last scene. (And while I would have loved if Ace was there for that scene, I also am not mad about him fishing with his dad....more on that phone call later.)

Getting into it:

I love Nancy and Nick's BFF era this season. I also love that Nick seems to be dad #3 of the group and I'm here for it. We start out S1 with them in a relationship which didn't work out and never really had a friendship, so it's nice to see them have one now and get past that awkwardness. Nancy can lean on Nick, she knows this, and he seems to be the only one. Major growth here!

Nick and George: S3 ended with them in a bit of a mess but I am liking where their relationship is kind of headed. George admits that there are some days where it is hard to be friends with Nick but they are working on it and the friendship is growing. The body swap episode (408) proved that. Nick being there for George and her date was a sweet touch. I would love for them to get back together but even if they don't, I'm happy to see George trying with someone and I do love Jade!

Nick and Ace: Living to finally see this friendship. We get snippets of it over the course of the other 3 seasons but now we are finally starting to see it. Nick being there for Ace and hearing him out, giving advice, I love them seeing them together.

Bess and George: I am happy that Bess at least has George fighting on her side this season with Carson. Their friendship really grew and I actually liked that Bess and George said they are best friends, because they are! And yes, while Bess said "Don't tell Ace" and everyone got a little mad, you can have more than one best friend. I do!

Bess and Ace: They are still very much plantachors! They know each other well and they still seem to have a solid friendship even though we aren't seeing it much this season. Like I said before, Bess still seems to visit him in the morgue and she also seems to have a good relationship with Rebecca now which is implying that a lot of their friendship is offscreen this season. In 402, Ace said he went to Bess for moral support about finding out about the curse, and she went to everyone else. So, STILL my favorite plantanchors!

Nick and Bess: I am LOVING this friendship that came out of the past seasons. They are helping each other out a lot this season and Nick is there for Bess still with the whole situation about the Historical Society and the "witch-hunt" storyline. keep it coming!

Nancy and Bess: these two seem to have grown into sisters. They have a great friendship even though we don't see it a lot but they are there for each other in a heartbeat!

Here we go!

Nancy and Ace

Where do I even start? The most epic of slow burn romances out there. There have been so many crumbs over the last 3 seasons all leading up to this!

This is a love for either of them that they have never experienced before. While both Nancy and Ace have had other relationships, they don't even come close to the love that they feel for each other. They have admitted that they are the loves of each other's lives and Nancy admitted that Ace is her person...... That's HUGE.

They have both done so much growing up over the seasons to be able to recognize this. So, this season:

While yes, there is a lot of pain, I believe it actually grew their relationship and the writing is done very well here. Yes, Ace wound up breaking Nancy's heart at the end of 403, but Nancy broke his heart first.

This whole journey after that is them coming back together and trying to figure it out. They don't know what it is like to be "just friends" with each other and we definitely see that. Nick calls Ace out on this and you can see him agreeing! It was never just about friendship for him. Ace admitted that he still wants to be with her more than anything, but watching her almost die in his arms definitely scared him. This isn't a hallucination from Temperance, this was REAL, and Nancy ALMOST died. If Ace looses Nancy, he's losing a piece of himself and he won't know what to do. He finally understood what Nancy went through in that hallucination and understood why she stayed away. That thought is what scares him into running away and giving up because he would rather see her alive and with someone else than risking her life. That whole speech he gives her at the end of 405 was incredibly written, as heartbreaking as it was. He was very openly honest with her here too. He told Nancy that she deserves to be happy and with someone who can love her completely, EVEN THOUGH IT WOULD RIP HIM APART. He was honest!! And Nancy knew that! Nancy still loves him greatly and she doesn't know how to be around him either without those feelings rising to the surface. Everything they have done was for each other, so to take a step back, they don't know how and I think this is beautifully shown up to this point!

They are trying to be just friends, and failing. This is why it is hurt after hurt and the fights we have been seeing all season because there is still too much feeling there. They keep trying to give each other space but winds up being impossible. Ace still helping with the mystery and being part of that friend group is keeping her attached to Ace.

Tristan happened to be in the right place at the right time. While I think there is something more there (mystery pertaining), at this point, yes he is uncomplicated and easy. And NOT cursed. (well, until the sin eater reveal in 410)

But Nancy can't bring herself to let more feelings in because she is still hung up on Ace. She felt guilty when she found out that Ace saw her with Tristan and immediately tried to tell him about it. Ace being nonchalant about it on the outside affected her, you can visibly see it, and she doesn't know what to do with that.

Ace however, is still very much hurting on the inside. He just doesn't show it. He told Nancy to move on and this is what she is trying to do. So he is braving it, and trying to let her. Still being affected by this however, leads to the fight at the end of 407. Nancy needs Ace to give her space so she can try to heal. This is understandable. They never really got a chance to really be together so Ace doesn't know how hard it is for her. Nancy had that WHOLE hallucination, multiple days with him, to know what she's trying to walk away from. So, he agrees and leaves her to it which we see Nancy crying because yes, that still hurts.

Then, Nancy texts the whole group that she needs help and to meet at the Claw ASAP. Despite everything, Ace still shows up because she needs help, and she tells him this. Ace still showing up knocks her a bit because yes she still wants the space, but it means a lot to her.

Spending the day in each other's bodies doesn't help either. But this was the turning point. They had to work together, and be together for the day and that really proved to them that they are better together, whether they like it or not. Cut to the end of the episode when Nancy tells Ace to go be with his dad. There was a LOT that was loaded in to that speech. She was talking about making memories with his dad and still being able to because she lost Kate, but she was also talking about them. "All that's left are memories. That's all you're really left with...just messy, stupid memories that stick around..." She's still remembering him. And I think Ace caught that meaning too. There is so much they can say to each other without actually saying it and this is one of those moments.

After Ace goes fishing with his dad, he realizes that he can't stay apart from her. Now for the phone call:

Again, this is the turning point. Ace told Nancy that he is a better person with her in his life. Nancy admitted that she wasn't happy without him in hers.

However, before this, Ace still tells Nancy, again, that it still hurts to be her friend right now. Why? Because he still loves her. You don't get over that that quickly and Nancy knows she still loves him. There was something in that pause from Ace where you knew he wanted to say more but held himself back. This is where it takes a turn.

The next couple of episodes their whole relationship seems to change. Nancy is freaking out about saving Tristan, which understandable, but something seemed really off.

In 409, we hear that Tristan has been trying to ask Nancy out for a bit... a few days, but she doesn't answer him because she doesn't know if this is what she wants. After she shoots him and they are trying to save him in 410, that's where it hit me that something is wrong. She refers to Ace as her ex and tells Tristan she just got out of a relationship, which isn't entirely wrong, but they way she's explaining it doesn't sound right.

One line got me...."Sure, call my ex to help the guy I like". Why would she not want Nick to call Ace? He's been helping her this whole time and he still helped when she got stuck. So why now?

Here is my theory........After we find out at the end of 410 that Nancy was the last sinner, this whole couple of episodes makes more sense.

Why all of a sudden, Tristan is now a "maybe" thing. Nancy altered her memories of her feelings for Ace, in turn altering his. I don't know if anything happened, but after that phone call, the only way they are going to move on is if those feelings for each other are gone. They can't be happy and still be friends. This was the only sure way.

Nancy doesn't want Ace to hurt anymore and she doesn't want to hurt either. But she doesn't NOT want him in her life. Hence, going to the black door.

If this winds up being right, WOW! this would be a great twist and I would love to see where this brings them!

I have absolute faith in the writers and know we are getting our endgame, so BRING IT ON.

as Kennedy says, "Ride the wave, baby!"

sorry for the rant!

1 for Bokris and 9 & 10 for Jance? :)

Ooh thanks, time to get my writing brain back in business😄

Bokris:

1.The umbrella, when it rains - Bojan. Kris will always complain (with a giant smile on his face) and pose the argument that he is much taller and hence should hold it, but Bojan will have none of it. He will insist on holding the umbrella for "his princess" and spend all the time under it holding it at the peak of his reach just to keep it over Kris' head. When they get where they're going Bojan will immediately start complaining about a sore arm which will cause Kris to chide him again, but secretly he loves being treated like a princess and enjoys it when it happens.

Jance:

9.Their breath, upon seeing the other on their wedding day - Nace. The moment he sees Jan walking down that aisle his breath will cease, his heart will stop, and his whole body will just pause for a good moment in awe at the man that he finally is going to marry. Once everything restarts again it will take a minute for him to regain the ability to speak but once he does all he will be able to say is how ravishing Jan looks and how he is the luckiest man to ever exist as he is marrying this god incarnate.

10.The camera, when they take pictures together - Jan. It will be a bit of a struggle as they both frequently like to do silly things with their hands in pictures, but in the end it will be Jan encapsulated by Nace's arms around him, disengaging an arm from the bear hug and holding out the camera to take a picture of him being wrapped in what would best be described as a Nace-burrito.

Thank you so much @occhi-verdi-come-il-mare for the ask, this was super fun and got my creative synapses firing! Also since I've never written much Jance before (I have no idea why not) so this was something new 😁

About 🌻

Hi, I’m machinedarling on AO3! I write fics about Joker Out because I love them very much. I’m an adult and I go by Machi, which is not my real name but is a fun nickname for fandom purposes. He/him, if you must refer to me. I would absolutely love to talk to other writers and readers so please feel free to message me!

Fics (the ones I’m proud of):

Chaptered:

god turn me into a flower - Kris/Jan. Hanahaki + slow burn. My most popular work, and one of my favorite things I’ve ever written, so it would mean a lot if you checked it out! 5 chapters + 1 follow-up oneshot, see below.

from both sides now (ONGOING) - Bojan/Kris AU based on the 2014 film, the Book of Life. My most self indulgent fic because I love that movie, but you don’t have to have seen it to understand the fic :) 17 chapters, 7 completed.

without you without them (ONGOING) - Bojan/Kris/Jan/Martin. Domestic fluff featuring trans!Kris and… drumroll please… pregnancy! (I’m trans please do not come at me thanks) 5 chapters, 3 completed.

Oneshots:

pillow princess - Nace/Kris smut inspired by the LittleVIC art of the same name!

god loves you, but not enough to save you - Jan/Nace, but mostly Jan being religiously traumatized. My most personal fic bc I was projecting so much when I wrote it lol

bend until you break - Kris/Jan/Bojan smut, featuring some harder kink. Be warned.

poinsettia - Jan/Kris, a little continuation of GTMIAF that I wrote for New Year’s!

Other things

As you can see, I mostly write ships with Kris in them, because I have a soft spot for that man. However, I do really love Bojan/Martin as well, and I do have a plan to write them soon! I do enjoy some good Jan/Nace as well.

I have a Twitter where I complain about the writing process and fight people who are rude to fic authors 🙃

I do write smut occasionally, so if you’re not comfortable with that, this might not be the place for you. I don’t post about smut on Twitter much, but I might here, because Tumblr seems to skew a bit older. I won’t say that minors shouldn’t interact or anything like that, because I’m honestly not sure how much NSFW stuff I’ll post, but I’m just warning that there *might* be a bit of it.

I really do want to talk to people! I’m quite awkward but I love to ramble about writing and fic and JO in general! Thank you for being here 🫶

Ohhhhh. Any hcs for Nace/Bojan you'd like to share? Either how you think they'd figure out their feelings or some domestic hcs if you'd prefer. But really, anything goes

nace always asks bojan to make tea, because it tastes better when bojan makes it. bojan asks nace for sandwiches for the same reason

bojan has a scar on his finger from a fishhook. he got it the first time he went fishing with nace, and he presses it whenever he gets anxious. he sometimes catches himself putting his lips on it, when he misses nace's kisses

nace complains about always being the big spoon, but secretly loves how well bojan fits in his arms. every (rare) time bojan ends up as the big spoon, he says he's a backpack rather than a big spoon and nace gets the urge to carry him around the house on his back. he doesn't though, after that one time he ran into a table and they both had bruises for weeks

both of them keep kris as their in case of emergency number on their phones, because they know if one of them is in danger, the other ones is most likely just as fucked, or they're going to be too much of a mess to deal with it

bojan twisted his ankle during sex once time, it never healed correctly and now every time it rains, bojan gets horny for nace

sleepover weekend

[lovvecherrymotion]

For the kisses, 25 and/or 29, Jance

this is a little silly/soft, but i can't help myself when it comes to them! i hope you like it ✨💕

Jance: ... as a promise.

Nace isn’t surprised to find Jan waiting for him in the living room, pretending to pay attention to whatever paper he’s supposed to be reading, with Igor and Oli both cuddled up on his left side, resting. He looks like he’s almost pouting and Nace can’t help but think he looks adorable, but he knows he’ll have something to apologize for.

“Hi love.” He greets, bending down to kiss Jan, and then he can barely hold back a mile as he pulls away and he sees Jan is actually pouting. “Hey, I come back and give you a kiss and this is the reaction I get?”

“Don’t even try, Nace Jordan.” Jan complains and Nace really has to try hard not to laugh and kiss his boyfriend all over. “Not after today’s betrayal.”

“I have no idea what you’re talking about.” He says, taking a seat right next to Jan, seeing him roll his eyes at him. Between this and the full name treatment? Oh, Nace will really have to apologize.

“Bojan made sure to send me a photo of the delicious lunch you both got after going to the gym.” He says and then he takes his phone out of his hoodie’s pocket, turning it to Nace so that he can see the screen.

It’s the selfie Bojan took of the two of them at the restaurant they’d gone to, followed by three texts.

            ur boyfriend just took me on a date

            it was amazing btw the food was 10/10

            and so was the company ;)

“Janči, baby, I can explain…”

“You said we’d go there first, Nace!” Jan whines. “I can’t believe you took Bojan there before me!”

And Nace can’t help but bury his face in the crook of Jan’s neck, holding back laughter. His boyfriend might be the most adorable person ever when he’s upset over something so small.

“Janči, I’m so sorry.”

“You’re laughing! You took Bojan on a date to the thai restaurant we said we were gonna try and you’re laughing!” Jan complains, but Nace knows it won’t last long. Still, even though it’s nothing serious, he feels the need to reassure him it’s okay.

“Hey, the only reason I took Bojan there first,” he starts, lifting his head up and looking at Jan. “Was so that I could try it and make sure it’s nice enough for you. Wouldn’t want to take you somewhere shitty on date night.”

Jan looks back at him, the mild annoyance in his eyes gone. Nace is well aware this little complaint isn’t actually about having lunch with Bojan at the place they both wanted to try – he’s acting up about minor things because he’s been struggling to sleep again and he’s been determined to finish his thesis after getting an email from his professor (except it’s nearly impossible when they’re so busy with touring). Still, if complaining about small things helps in any type of way, Nace is more than happy to deal with that.

“Fine. I’ll let it pass this time.” Jan says and Nace can see how their little fight has been enough to calm him down just a bit. “But you have to promise you’ll take me there next time.”

“I promise. It’s a date.” And as he wraps his arms around Jan, kissing him again, he feels his boyfriend melt into his embrace.

mic'd up jure highlights from sea star festival last year

[eteisvalssi]

ruisrock report 7.7.2024

i'm now back home from turku and what a weekend it was! here are some of my thoughts:

i was a volunteer at ruisrock. i did two 7,5 hour shifts checking other volunteers in and out of their shifts and it was so much fun! an easy job, i got to enjoy one full day and two partial days of the festival, i got free food on the two days i had a shift and would've gotten free accommodation too if i hadn't had one already. all worth it :)

i did go see artists other than joker out. my favorites were definitely fröbelin palikat and robin! fröbelin palikat is something the main target audience of ruisrock grew up listening to so it was very nostalgic and there were so many people and literally everyone dancing and singing along to children's music. and robin is just robin, an amazing performer and literally everyone knows his songs

even on our day off we could use the volunteer bus and the crew entrance, so we did, and went to teltta straight away to check the situation. my friend wanted to stay there to secure barricade, but i gave my spot to a girl who wanted to only see the first two acts there

we had the joblr meetup! i loved meeting you all, it was so much fun, and i hope to see you all soon <3 next meetup in slovenia during the balkan tour? 👀

the others went to see käärijä but i felt bad for my friend for disappearing for three hours so i went to the tent after pehmoaino and the girl who i mentioned earlier gave me the spot back!

we could hear käärijä a bit from the tent and it was nice to hear how loud the audience was when erika vikman and joost came on stage

next up in the tent was ege zulu, i only knew like two songs but oh my god his performance was so good! he's a rapper and he had like a show with a proper band and dancers. at one point he just started improvising and singing/talking directly to the audience members and giving compliments and he truly knew what part of the audience he had to win over bc yours truly got complimented on 😂

after ege zulu the first rows started filling up from joker out fans

next up was alok and speaking as a person who does study event management i feel like there might have been some misjudgement from ruisrock's part on the timetables, because the two front rows were really not feeling it and it was very awkward. it would've worked better with joker out having performed before, but of course i know nothing about what their reasoning was

the 1,5 hour wait for joker out went by so fast. we were listening to pmmp from the niitty stage and during their most-well-known songs everyone who knew them was singing along. because of that the vibe in the audience was so good even before the gig started

katri norrlin and this other guy from ylex came to introduce them and even at that people were screaming so fucking loud. i read from jodel that one security person went to get second earmuffs bc it was so loud

after they came on stage nace looked me straight in the eyes and waved at me even though i didn't wave at him like ok??

i don't feel like i've ever been at a more high-energy joker out concert than this. the audience was so loud through the whole concert, the tent was full of people and you could see they got so excited by it and went completely crazy themselves

this one was truly for the shippers of the fandom with just everything that happened on that day

i didn't even realize jere and the others were on the side watching the gig before vse kar vem and i only heard about joost also being there after the concert

seagulls had somehow found their way into the tent and one of them got really scared during šta bih ja and flew around for a while before flying backstage

didn't expect sunny side of london or bele sanje to be on the setlist, but i'm definitely not complaining. ssol was just perfect for this gig

i've taken a video of novi val from every single gig and i was kinda sad that they didn't do it this time, but i do also get why they ended with carpe diem

after the gig we went back to the centre of turku and had an afterparty with some mutuals at a grill kiosk <3

i feel like i've forgotten something but idk i'll add some stuff if i do remember what i had in mind. thanks for reading <3

[saucyjothoughts]

do you think any of the boys would be into chubby girls???? such a random question i know lmfao but I have got to see other people's opinion on this topic

Sweet Anonyboo, I have been waiting for this.

(nsfw under the cut)

"You can't pick me up, I'm too heavy."

It's something you never thought you could have and didn't dare let yourself want - to be thrown around by a partner, to feel fragile and feminine under a man, to feel small. But as soon as your voice it, Nace furrows his brow. Now he has a point to prove. To show you that it's not even hard, that he lifts more than this at the gym. He picks you up under your butt and lines himself up to fuck you against the wall, your legs wrapped around him. You're still a little self conscious, worried about his arms getting tired until he steps back, carrying you with him, your arms over his shoulders as he's supporting you completely, bouncing you on his cock as you're helpless in his arms.

Jure is all about your breasts. He loves to smother his face between them, kneading into the warm, soothing depths of your belly like a cat. You complain that you can never find nice lingerie in your size but Jure prefers them bare anyway, slippery with soap in the shower or sweet cream he can lick off you, or his own come after fucking your tits. And then his favourite thing: falling asleep with his head resting on them.

Kris isn't quite so open about his attractions. In fact, he gives you no indication that he's into you at all. Until you catch him watching BBW porn. After that, he's still subtle, it's a secret, he's ashamed. Can you believe it? Ashamed of being attracted to you? What a dick. It only comes out over the phone, mostly when he's drunk, telling you what he wants to do to you. You tell him to fuck off every time, to quit fetishizing you. It's kind of sad. But months pass and eventually, you throw him some pity sex. And he has you up all night, draining himself dry for you, obsessed with you, begging you to sit on his face, to suffocate him with your thighs, to drown him in your pussy. Maybe he really will die down there. Dick.

Bojan has never been quiet about how beautiful you are. The timelessly gorgeous silhouette, like something from a painting - in a museum or on a cave wall, your body type has always been desirable, the picture of femininity, of fertility. Of course he loves your body, he's only a man. He loves to wear you on his arm, in dresses you didn't think you could get away with, but he loves how your body fills your clothes. He'll make sure you eat whatever you want (and let yourself enjoy it) when you're out together, no matter who might be watching.

For Jan, it's all about variety. Human intimacy is a casual hobby and every connection is an adventure, playing with new genders and kinks and body types. There is never any room for shame with Jan. He explores you without expectation or pressure, appreciating you for exactly what you are. How your flesh bounces when you're on top, sucking kisses onto your double chin ("stop! It tickles!"), how your ass jiggles when he slaps it and how good it feels to grip into your love handles when he's doing you from behind. You're still casually seeing each other in the summer, hot tub season, and he gets to play with how your weight floats in the water, his easy company being the first time you've been comfortable enough to wear a bikini instead of something that covers you up. You go back to him again and again and he's eager to have you - your body and your humour and your music taste. All of you.

[fluffyjothoughts]

keep thinking about doing nighttime routine with the boys

some evening yoga and scincare💕

heyyyyyyyy this is gonna be more of a introducing him to skincare (forcing him to put on a face mask) vibe because i love the idea of doing this !!!

Kris: this man has more skincare than you, knows more about skincare than you and his routine is way more structured than yours. (What do you mean you don’t use the ordinary zinc serum? *the most judgmental look ever*)

Bojan: Knows something about it, but prefers hair care. So when you offer to let him wash his face with your cleanser and your serums he’s all for it. He watches you intently and gets on with it, very happily explaining how soft his skin feels after.

Jan: Doesn’t really want to get into it because he has a beard, but when you look at him with a (only slightly, but still,) judgmental look, he lets you do it. You apply the serum on his skin while he just kinda smiles at you, looking down at you with fondness.

Jure: This man is fucking nuts. he looks like he’s scrub his face with hand soap and rub it in like a madman. So you showing him the way you’re supposed to do it makes him slightly confused but he still goes on with it and only slightly complains about the coolness of the face mask.

Nace: Happy as long as you’re happy. he’ll sit on the toilet seat and let you (for the most part) do whatever you want to his face, only humming in content and relaxation in between.

The joker out pride project.

Nace is finally okay with being gay. Also on ao3.

(I've written all the chapters that will be needed for the days I'll be on holiday so you probably won't even notice I'm gone)

June 21st, prompt 30. Acceptance.

If Nace got the opportunity to talk to a 15 year old version of himself, then he knows exactly what he would say. First, he would show his younger self a photo of a man with long black hair, beautiful brown eyes, and a certain love for cats, leather jackets and vintage guitars. Then, Nace would tell young Nace that the man in the photo is the kindest person he'll ever meet. That the man struggles with insomnia and time regulation, but will arrive at a friend's apartment no more than 30 minutes after finding out that that friend needs support. 

Finally, Nace would tell his younger self that he will fall in love with this man. He'll fall so hard for this man that his entire worldview will change. 

Because he has. Nace has fallen in love with Jan, and that's okay. It has taken Nace so much time to accept it, but he thinks he's finally fine with life being this way. How could life not be okay when he's in a bed, laying next to someone that he likes as much as he likes Jan.

This might actually be the first time that happens, waking up and feeling nothing but joy about what happened the night before. No regret, no worries about feelings being too weak, just pure joy. No, wait, there is one more feeling. It might be knowledge, or maybe acceptance is a better word for it. Nace has known, deep down, who he is since he was 19. But it's now that he can finally come to peace with it. He's gay. Nace likes men. Or, well, right now he only really likes Jan, but since he falls under the category of ‘men’, then Nace technically likes men. 

It's a rather nice feeling, accepting himself. It’s a feeling he hasn’t allowed himself to feel in almost ten years. Suddenly, Nace feels the urge to tell someone, anyone. The best option is right in front of him, but unfortunately that option is currently very asleep. Nace calmly removes a strand of hair from Jan's face. After he's tucked it behind Jan's ear, he slowly starts combing through his hair. Jan lets out a small groan and Nace can't stop himself from leaving a soft kiss on his nose. 

“Too early”, Jan complains. Nace takes a quick look at the clock on Jan's bedside table. 

“It's ten thirty", Nace says. 

“Exactly. Early”. Jan is yet to open his eyes, but when Nace starts leaving kisses all over his face, one eyelid cracks open slightly. 

“Is that some kind of trick to get me to wake up?” Jan asks. 

“Is it working?”

“Maybe”

Once Nace has left at least fifteen soft kisses on Jan’s face, he has opened both his eyes, and Nace thinks it's time. 

“I have to tell you something”, he says, and Jan gets a look of confusion on his face before Nace can continue. 

“I'm gay”

“Uhm, yeah? Wasn't that obvious?” 

“Maybe, but I've not really been sure, or been able to accept it I guess, until now”. At this, Jan starts laughing.  

“You had your dick balls deep up my ass last night, and on Thursday night, and last weekend, and you were still not sure if you were gay?” and Nace can feel himself blush a little. Instead of coming up with something to defend himself with, he simply buries his face in Jan's neck. 

“It's okay, Nacko. Not everyone is as bright as I am and finds out when they’re 11”. At that, Nace shows his face again. 

“Oh, yes, you are very smart, Jan. Anything else you want to teach me?” 

“Hmm. Maybe I can make you understand that morning sex is great? Or that it's especially great with me?” 

Nace snorts out a laugh before leaning in to kiss Jan, properly this time, on the lips. Soon enough he'll find out if Jan's statements are true.
