[writingmochi]

an honest review of the star chapter: sanctuary purely from musical observation (not proofread because i'll post the proofread on rym n aoty)

opening remarks: jeez, november is a treat for me who writes for all the groups i'll be writing for, innit? hi! long time no speak. i've been busy with stuff that i'll be elaborating on later tomorrow but it's comeback time~ and the first up will be txt.

with the scandal that embroiled hybe starting from the hybe vs mhj, the assembly with the department of labor investigating hybe where new jeans' hanni being there, the numerous investigation on hybe regarding downplaying album sales so they don't increase their cost and the damning internal documents that leaked out about hybe "gossiping" the industry, including their own artists, also the news of the full ot7 bts comeback to 2026. txt's comeback can definitely be presumed as some sort of cover-up for hybe by their third largest boy group (bts doing military service, svt is starting to do theirs also). this definitely shows by how "budgeted" the concept photos look, especially with the lover concept that felt too different.

i was also under the understanding that yeonjun's mixtape was even longer than ggum (cause mixtape implies that there is one more track ala agust d's soundcloud mixtapes), so color me confused when i saw that txt is coming back around the time where the cyj mixtape was supposed to come out and they're competing for moa's money honestly. nonetheless, we enter a new era of txt: the star chapter. i like how they come full circle with using "star" as their debut ep is the dream chapter: star, makes me feel that time has gone by so fast that txt is already 5 years going. i also like the concept names for each album, combining pretty much all sides of txt such as the knight, lover, angel, and savior. with this tho and the star recall, i expect more of the isekai-ed type of songs that txt used to make from the dream chapter era. it's interesting to see the trajectory of txt as more of this softer masculine side compared to their other "harsher"-mature sounding counterparts of 4th gen like ateez or stray kids.

first impression: NO SONGS ABOVE 3 MINUTES?! that's a huge minus. 6 song in an ep with the length not even reaching 15 minutes. what is happening? why are they so short? are they really banking on remixes for this cause i already see an extended ep for this. this is actually a bad sentiment that i have with current pop music honestly. what bighit (and hybe) is trying to do is to profit from releasing many singles of the main singles into remixes, banking on the fans who "will always support their idols" to stream it, so that it can get higher in the charts. this is a predatory practice with the likes of taylor swift doing this for her ttpd. and i hate it. it convolutes their discography with a bunch of crap and relinquishes the authenticity of an artist creating art. sigh...

okay, with that tangent out of the way. let's listen!

1.heaven: i do think that they're trying to do a i'll see you there tomorrow by making the guitar strumming vaguer in rhythm, like making you confused about where is the downbeat before you can hear the percussion part in the verse. i also feel like the beat is faster in the chorus. i do think it is much like a text-painting situation where the drumbeat represents heartbeat and how when we move between verse and chorus it represents how your heartbeat is getting faster by confessing that when you are with them, it feels like heaven.

in technicality, the main melody/jingle of this song is very catchy. i like that we can distinguish easily between the member's voices. tho, i do think the vocal mixing can be repaired because there is an awkward jump in decibels between the intro to yeonjun singing. i also think that because the members sing in falsetto in the chorus, with this vocal mix, they sound a bit too compressed. also, gosh, the fact that this song is under 2 minutes yet is begging to be resolved with a bridge before the last chorus. gosh, that cut-off at the end is so disappointing cause i would like the guitar part in the intro to be in the bridge like they're serenading me more with sweet words. totally disappointed.

2.over the moon: okay, wow~ that was unsatisfactory.

when the first sets of synth chords started, this song reminded me of treasure's my treasure. so i expected a much more grandiose type of song kind of like gfriend before being under hybe (rough, sunrise, time for the moonnight). interestingly, they decide to move into an rnb-esque inspiration for the sound with a little bit of influence of (i guess) funk cause i can hear some stevie wonder inspiration from it with the bass line and how the chorus is shaped. i also hear a bit of early the boyz in the chorus think giddy up or right here.

but do i think that this is a main title track? no and this is the first i felt this over a txt title track. maybe it comes down to how short it seems without the bridge, but both sugar rush ride and deja vu still sound like a title track even without bridges. that is, i think, because both songs have an accentuated outro where you know that the song is ending but in this song, the end is just... a trail of the second chorus. it also lacks the grit i identify from txt title tracks. i always believe that txt title track has this sort of epicness or spectacle to it. comparing this to blue hour which has nearly the same brightness in sound, blue hour still has some sense of spectacle to it, especially in regards to the structure of the song that can include the dance break.

overall, i do believe that this sounded more like a b-side that you promote alongside a title track instead of being the title track...

3.danger: this song felt more complete than over the moon even if it is shorter. i do think that it is more in the structure of it that makes it fuller.

other than that, the third song is in and i can already figure out a funk/rnb sound between the three songs. so i hoped that it stayed that way. when i heard the guitar, i thought it would be a more rock song like growing pains but i realized this is more of those michael jackson-esque 80s soft rock songs. i also love how they used the vocals in the song, from the whisper lower voice to the whoop in the higher end of the voice with taehyun. definitely makes me believe that it is a somewhat michael jackson homage.

i do think that the song is too droning cause the bass line and guitar line never change. the addition and subtraction of the synth creating the dynamic in the song. a much more interesting song imo especially since i personally am listening to a lot of early 80s rock now like talking heads with its quirkiness. also, i'm not surprised that beomgyu is involved with this song cause the more adventurous a txt rock song seems, it's more likely that beomgyu is there *thumbs up*

4.resist (not gonna run away): now this is a teasing type of song.

i like the use of acoustic guitar and percussions here. you can feel that it runs in the same sound such as the killa and tinnitus, but a bit more upbeat. i describe this song as teasing cause this song craves for a huge beat drop with heavy bass. but i do think that it is the somewhat charm of the song as it relates to the lyric of the song of "i can't resist". it creates a certain cat-and-mouse type of feeling when hearing this song, especially with the sparse sound of it that focuses on the higher range of the eq and the 2:15 run time. the vocal is good but i still think that the higher range of the voice is a bit compressed and it especially can be heard here where the vocal is mostly in falsettos. taehyun's falsettos is addicting

5. forty-one winks: whoah dem jointz created a song for txt?

now this is rnb and the underlying vocoder effect makes it funky. this is also such a complete-sounding song with its structure and instrumentality. all the layers of the instruments and samples create a complete sound. i also like how the song plays around with vocal mixing, creating an underwater/telephone effect. it sounds very soft and since i see that this song is also being promoted along over the moon: a good choice for a complimentary promotional song.

kai's voice is a highlight here especially with his high notes. it has a more authenticity to it cause i do imagine that they really enjoy singing this song so props to the vocal direction as well.

6.higher than heaven: ROCK TXT!!! (well pop rock but still)

okay, this sounds a lot like every day6 august with its gritty guitar sound in a feel-good pop-rock setting. i love the text-painting of the high in the lyrics and they raise their note higher when singing it. also a song with a complete form including bridges, and i like how they didn't include the post-chorus to save it for the last chorus as it is replaced with a bridge. makes sense cause it is the longest song in the ep. but that ending is so abrupt tho if they wanna add another post-chorus/outro bar to make it more final then it will be good.

the vocal direction is good tho i do think that soobin could be better cause he seems to lack some soul in the way he sings this song. in comparison to kai and beomgyu, which i think this song suits them well so much, you can hear them enjoying this song so much.

with this song being some sort of reprise of heaven, i have to compare them. it definitely elevates from heaven and is much more subdued compared to higher's brighter, happier sound. tho, if we compare the two, i like heaven more instrumentally cause it seems much more interesting. still would love a much more encore/epilogue to the song, especially since it is the last track of the ep.

closing remarks: as an ep, i do believe that it is solid in the sense that it is more consistent in sound than i thought it would be. not as magical as i predicted but we have a thorough line between each song that can be traced to a rnb/funk sound with a bit of rock in it for both resist and higher than heaven.

as a concept album like minisode 2's 5 stages of grief, this ep tells more of the story of how a person can be a sanctuary when you love them so much. you can see how the relationship moves from the heaven intro to the higher than heaven ending and i like how it becomes. it is consistent in concept and tracklist, even in sound which is getting pretty rare knowing that kpop has lot more filler tracks in a release. though there are some pitfalls.

i do believe that over the moon is txt's weakest title track so far. it sounds too similar to the other tracks that it's harder to stand out. but if it stands out too much, it will make the ep sound consistent. finding that balance is hard, but i do believe that they were capable of it by making the song longer and adding a bridge. songs like heaven, over the moon, danger, and 41 winks will sound much better with a bridge/interlude in them...

final ranking:

6.over the moon (49/100): gosh what a weak song... :(

5.danger (58/100)

4.resist (60/100): pretty short song but i like the premise if you can understand its text-painting

3.41 winks(63/100): the instrumentation is unique that you don't know where this song was going when you first hear it

2.heaven (72/100): could be number one but the song is so unsatisfying, i cannot justify that

1.higher than heaven (73/100): most complete. good song to end the project, espacially w/ heaven as the opening

overall release rate: 63/100

small conclusion: gosh that is 1/3! i still have the enhypen untold repackaged and i heard that enhypen made a nct song?!?

[anotherghoul666]

FUCK ME DUDE I sent the ask off without the damn answer in XD I'm so sorry hahahaha @devoured-by-shadows here's the actual post holy fuck.

(Answers 19 and 25 are below the others under a read more cause there’s talks of sensitive topics in there, 19 light mention of the topic of death, and 25 especially be wary of if you’re sensitive to topics like addiction, overdose and someone withering away over years.)

12:A song from your preteen years Ooh, interesting, what was big in my musical life between 9 and 12. Let's see. I got into metal at age 7 thanks to my dad showing me Iron Maiden, so needles to say Maiden was My Band in those years. While yes, there were other bands that managed to pique my interest then - things like Linkin Park, System of a Down, Nickleback (people need to chill with the Nickleback hate, yes they're commercial as fuck but dear god Silver Side Up and The Long Road fucked back in the day ok, and I will respect and appreciate those albums for what they were) and my first forray into power metal through Gamma Ray and Helloween and Blind Guardian - let's be real, Maiden was basically my whole life. When I discovered Maiden through their older albums, they were currently fronted by Blaze Bailey. Bless the guy, he tried his best and there are legit good songs on his two albums with Maiden, but you just can't fill Bruce Dickinson's shoes man, nobody can. All we were waiting for was Dickinson's return. So when he did come back in 2000 for the Brave New World album, that felt like the biggest event of my short life, and that album became my hyperfixation and favorite thing on the planet.

Iron Maiden - The Wicker Man I could link the entire album here as my “song of my pre-teen years” but this is the first track off of the album, it’s the start of the obsession, it was one of my favs to drum to back in the day. Lots of good memories with this classic!

15:A song that is a cover by another artist You know what's excellent music? 80s synth-pop / new wave like Tears for Fears.

Tears for Fears - Everybody Wants to Rule the World

You know what's even better? When a silly-yet-actually-super-talented youtuber band does it over 30 years later and nails the atmosphere.

Ninja Sex Party - Everybody Wants to Rule the World Listen, the world can say that it wants about the whole Game Grumps / Ninja Sex Party / Danny Sexbang persona, I kinda don't care. Objective truth is, Dan Avidan has fucking pipes, his voice is a fucking treasure, and serious albums like that one cover album from 2016 really show off these guys' potential. I get what their shtick is and I respect the hustle. But dude, when they cover 80s tracks like this one or A-ha's Take on Me? This is where they shine in my opinion. There's something so comforting, so soft and smooth in this version, this song feels like a hug for my brain. I remember multiple occasions in 2016 when this song alone carried me through panic attacks.

18:A song from the year that you were born So I was born in ‘91. Solid year in music, and in metal specifically. Metallica’s Black Album came out in ‘91. Ozzy Osbourne’s No More Tears, Soundgarden’s Badmotorfinger, classics everyone knows. Over in Europe in the Nordic countries, the late 80s to early 90s with ‘91 smack dab in the middle was the creation and solidifying of black metal. And while of course I did not listen to black metal as a baby (tho I wish XD) the genre became my favorite genre of metal nowadays. ‘91 was the year when Darkthrone released their first record. When Samael released their first record. And when Bathory, already legends back then, released Twilight of the Gods.

Bathory - Prologue / Twilight of the Gods / Epilogue Piece of fucking history this track is.

20:A song that has many meanings to you Ha XD Come try to crack the code of Genesis’ The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway storyline hahaha. 23 songs of the most beautiful madness in the world. Listen, I have listened to this album countless times, pondered meanings, I read the story, my dad saw the original show, we saw the officially sanctioned replica of the show together multiple times, with the costumes, the original videos, everything. I understand The Lamb, and at the same time I understand absolutely nothing about The Lamb.

Genesis - In The Cage Make your own meaning. The more you look at The Lamb, the more confused the creature will make you, and that’s the way I like it! Peter Gabriel era Genesis is the best music that humanity’s ever created. You can spend your whole life trying to get it and you won’t and you’ll still be on awe.

19:A song that makes you think about life I tend to think about life through the lens of death most often. Idk how morbid of a person that means I am, or how much of a realist it makes me maybe? I don’t like to spend too much pondering life cause I know it can easily take me somewhere dark in the mind. But I do instinctually think about the value of life and artistic output, and the limited and fragile nature of life itself, when I listen to songs by people I’ve never known or met or seen while they were alive, and yet here they are, alive and well somehow in my hands and ears. How trippy.

Windir - Journey to the End Raising a (non-alcoholic) glass to Valfar for his soul to share in whichever hall of the afterlife he’s at. The soul of the Sogndal scene, unbeatable creative who I firmly believe could have influenced black metal and changed the course of the scene if he hadn’t died walking home in a snowstorm in 2004. Life’s funny like that. Sometimes all it takes is a walk home that you never arrive from. That type of shit makes me ponder life and its weirdly thin meaning. You take a look at the lyrics, it’s almost like Valfar knew what was coming. Nevertheless, Valfar and Windir left us some of the absolute best black metal offerings in the history of the genre. You cannot tell me this guy wasn’t ahead of his time with that synthy / electro / dreamy second half.

25:A song by an artist no longer living Aaah I unknowingly preemptively answered this one with the Windir answer before uh XD Alright, well, let’s talk about another artist that’s passed away then. An artist I actually got to see playing live multiple times before his passing. An artist that we, in the melodeath community, thought was so fucking cool. His self-destruction, which was very vividly broadcasted to the public mind you, was glorified, it was so epic and wild and awesome. The Wildchild, Alexi Laiho of Children of Bodom fame. We aspired to be half as cool as him. Because for some strange reason when you’re a teenager, a person showing off how much he can drink and do drugs is cool. A metal musician you admire showing himself blackout drunk and passed out and making himself sick day and day out, was cool.

That’s nuts to me now, as an adult, as someone who has mildly dealt with addiction and even that fucked me up, as someone who works with addicts and sees the damages of this disease day in and day out. We all watched Alexi killing himself slowly in front of us, at shows, on camera, on the tour buses, etc. and thought it was cool. We encouraged him, egged him on. Fucking madness. It claimed him, in the end. In 2020. I saw it coming for a few years so I was zero percent surprised. I know it caught some fans off guard, I don’t understand how.

I saw CoB in 2019, less than a year before the guy passed. I also saw CoB multiple times from 2011 to then, so I saw the decline of the frontman, and I feel you had to willingly be blind to it to not see it. In 2019 the guy was a living skeleton. No energy, barely able to play on stage, haggard unfocused eyes, caved in face, skin over bones. I read reviews of this 2019 show, people wrote about how he looked good and had energy and was “at his best”, like?! Was it denial about their favorite musician’s health status? Or pandering to the music industry, unable to review a show honestly? That performance was beyond difficult to watch. It hurt. Still hurts when I think back on it. I was physically uncomfortable. We left before the end. I couldn’t stand watching a literal wraith shredding guitar on stage knowing full well this night too would end with him passed out drunk at the bar after.

It was a whole story, Alexi’s antics. It caused tension and conflict within the band, and of course, how can it not be harmful to watch your frontman and friend do this to themselves. But metal was and unfortunately still is a culture of excess and substances, and nobody did it “better” than the Wildchild. We all thought it looked rad, but in the end we watched this guy die for two decades. When the news of his passing came out in 2020 (from an overdose of lots of different substances on top of liver disease and basically an organ breakdown) I cried a ton. For the reality behind this precious piece of my childhood and teenage years that was CoB; but mostly for how unhealthy the live music scene can be and how it can encourage artists down very dark paths. I don’t understand anymore how watching people get fucked up on substances is supposed to be cool. So I do my part when I can, to honor Alexi Laiho and other musicians like him whom addiction claimed, and to remind whoever reads me that alcoholism and drug abuse isn’t “cool”. Taking shit doesn’t make anyone more manly or more metal or impressive. Addiction shouldn’t be trendy. It cost us too many great musicians already.

Children of Bodom - Thrashed, Lost & Strungout Man I miss this motherfucker.

[solitaireships]

👀👀👀—CCFM

You get three pics for three eyes emojis! But even tho he only does covers, Sway is one of my fav artists for Selina. She always just looks so stunning with how she draws her, and I’ll admit I’ve bought a cover or two that he’s done despite hating this current run just bcs Selina looks beautiful

[pim-lover]

🍓- I think Pim would have thrived in a teaching environment! Maybe an elementary teacher. I equally think a child therapist would be a good job for him

🍒 - We have actually spent a full day, given the area we’re in there’s a decent amount to do and he usually wants to go out rather than stay in. So usually we go downtown, look at murals, feed ducks, go shopping, or visit public gardens!

🍎 - he’s booooring and likes water most.

🍉 - He’s an atheist but I think he grew up religious. He’s pretty comfortable around religion and spirituality.

🍑 - Pim’s a lot more comfortable giving gifts. He gets super flustered when he’s receiving a gift. He does love it he’s just not used to it poor guy. He probably prefers receiving small gifts like sweets or smth rather than big grand gifts.

🍊- peel it immediately, no questions asked.

🥭 - he has a plush puppy that’s weighted he’s had since he was a tadpole and a few decorative ones like a Gwimbly from his fav game growing up, a lion, and a few others. The favorite has to be the puppy.

🍍 - family that had more attention on his, less chaos growing up

🍌 - We specifically both ban the Big Light™️, it’s overstimulating and we’re both autistic. They prefer softer warm lighting but 9/10 times he’ll want natural light.

🍋 - His anxiety and ability to see when someone just isn’t working.

🍋‍🟩 - oh 100%. He takes theater traditions especially hard. Wouldn’t find him breaking mirrors, saying the M-word in a theater, doesn’t say good luck to actors, that sort of things.

🍈 - well he does believe in destiny. /ref

🍏 - I think he always knew he was queer in some way (he’s bi and genderfluid in my hc) but his family does not look like the kind to be super accepting. Probably had some sort of crush on an actor, panicked because that’s not a woman, and ultimately looked up “I’m a boy but I have a crush on a boy.” Then down the “Am I Gay”? Quotev pipeline.

🍐 - Pim definitely fidgets, he’ll do little hand tricks with what he’s holding. He’ll click pens and undo paperclips and just generally mess with things. Doesn’t like sitting still.

🥝 - nobody should trust me to do their make up. I think Pim has a bit of a baby face going but does get a bit anxious with aging or stress lines, so maybe a little bit of covering. But not a lot.

🫒 - oh he LOVES hugs. Huge on physical touch. He’s not even 4 feet tall so he also loves receiving hugs and cuddles. The only thing is he doesn’t like being picked up too suddenly or by ppl he doesn’t know (very easy to manhandle him and he doesn’t appreciate it)

🫐 - I think he’s a poet, def a right brained person tho.

🍇 - making out. Passionately.

🥥 - Pim probably wants to get into more artistically inclined areas. He current likes reading or doodling in notes and such, not a lot of time to do much else though. He is also super musical. He has a keyboard he likes to make silly little songs and jingles to.

🍅 - I don’t know!!! I don’t like a lot of gifts, so he struggles. He did get me this cool Los campesinos shirt the other day tho

🌶️ - I don’t think he drinks when he’s sick but a bowl of soup and cozy blanket seems to do the trick for him.

🫚 - he doesn’t like a lot of greasy or unhealthy foods but there’s not much he will not under any circumstances not eat.

🥕 - Little Pim probably said he hated veggies but as an adult he loves them.

🧅 - anything emotional. Movies, books, shows, songs, just about anything can make him cry and he loves that. He’s a very emotional guy and super in touch with his sensitivity

🌽 - His fav animal is probably cats. Quiet yet affectionate. He’s definitely scared of most wild animals (lions, tigers, bears, I don’t think he’s scared of snakes or bugs though. Oh and koalas and kangaroos. Fuck those guys. They’re so scary…)

🥦 - he cannot stand ppl chewing with their mouth open. Being manhandled too he especially hates or undermined because he’s an optimist and a little naive.

🥒 - I think he’s got claustrophobia. It just makes sense in my big beautiful brain.

🥬 - He names his inanimate objects and greets them or apologizes if he bumps into them. Also refuses to sit elsewhere, he has “his seat” on a couch. If someone takes it he won’t complain but he will be a little disappointed.

🫛 - oh he loves them. Pet names are one of his favorite things in a relationship. He mostly says things like “love”, “hun”, “dear”, “sweetie” but usually doesn’t do pet names like “bunny”, “darling”. Babe is a rare one

🫑 - Pim is very casual about death, he’s definitely seen some shit and doesn’t seem to really react. If it’s someone he’s so much as aquatinted with or it’s a sad story he will cry but generally he’s very empathetic yet jaded. He wants to travel the world and get married and have a kid before he dies.

🥑 - he’s REALLY into games from the 80s. Like super into it. He’d run a whole YouTube channel about it. Plus I think he’s also a sports fan just not very open about it. But MASSIVE sports fan.

🍠 - I think he reads or daydreams when he’s bored

🍆 - He loves the scent of coffee or vanilla. He however gets a little nervous around pine scents.

🧄 - He’s lactose intolerant (he doesn’t care. He is going to eat an entire tub of ice cream and nobody can stop him.)

🥔 - Pim LOVES cooking. He likes making these cool restaurant style meals but also knows I have the palette of a little kid so he genuinely just likes seeing ppl enjoy his food more than the aesthetic

🍄‍🟫 - He’d be a unicorn. No questions about it.

[hal-boy]

The adderall is Not having its desired effects (task initiation) just like all the other adhd meds I've been prescribed so far and is instead having other effects (finding new and exciting ways to avoid task initiation, typically focused on music for some reason? I wrote up a whole rambly rant last week about my top 100 songs and it's currently rotting in my drafts. If anyone knows of a link between adhd meds and music lmk?)

So, on the note that I have to finish my mom's christmas gift (a digital watercolor portrait- it's almost done!) and finish my part of the project before my group meets to discuss it in like 30 minutes, as well as the note that one of my neighbors is blasting Last Christmas by Wham super loud and that's very inconsiderate of them, I present a list of christmas songs that *don't* make me want to rip out my hair when I hear them. (Tho some songs I hate are included at the end).

-Tiny Tree Christmas by Guster. I think this came from a christmas song sampler album from target, of all places? It's good though, I feel it conveys a home-nostalgia feeling very well, and it doesn't get any airplay which means I can continue to enjoy it without fears of hearing it in the grocery store.

-Another song from that sampler album: Get Down For The Holidays by Jenny 0. I really liked the effects on the voice in this one when I was a kid.

-Also when I was a kid I liked *another another* song from that sampler album: Mrs. Claus Ain't Got Nothing On Me by Little Jackie, and I still like it but when I was a preteen I played it WAY too much and got sick of it. What can ya do :/.

-Marshmallow World by Darlene Love off the album A Christmas Gift For You. I only mention the album because it was a collaboration album, and all the songs by one of the other artists, The Ronettes, became grocery store christmas music rotation staples but none of the other artists' songs did. I don't know why this track was left behind, it's one of my favorite Christmas songs.

-the whole album Oy To The World by The Klezmonauts. It's traditional christmas songs done in klezmer style (according to their absolutely ancient website I just found, it's intended for interfaith families, which some of my extended family is so I bet they introduced it to us). I fucking love klezmer music and need more of it in my life.

-God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen/We Three Kinga by the Barenaked Ladies and Sarah McLachlan: it is so weird to me that normal ass bands put out christmas albums... especially when this album is called "barenaked for the holidays". It genuinely seems like a background joke in a sitcom or something, but this is one of the only songs I actually like by the barenaked ladies, lol. This is also one of the only christmas songs that explictly talks about god that don't summon my teenagehood edgy atheist self to scoff and scowl cause I'm too busy humming along (dont worry, ive become less of a tool since then, now i'm just a normal atheist).

-Carol of the Bells (Trans-Siberian Orchestra cover): I was a band kid who wanted to be an orchestra kid, so naturally i think this is cool. I was also a choir kid so we did a less-cool version of this once, but alas I am an alto- being an alto was not a great experience for me both for gender reasons (I wanted to be a tenor so fucking bad it made me look stupid) and because alto parts notoriously suck shit to sing and are not fun.

-Feliz Navidad by José Feliciano: It's a peppy, catchy tune, and one of the only grocery store christmas music rotation staples I like alongside The Ronette's Sleigh Ride (*maybe* Jingle Bell Rock but if it's not the Bobby Helms original it's on thin ice).

-Holly Jolly Christmas by Burl Ives. I don't lile a lot of "traditional" christmas songs (read as: one man crooning softly) but my family had a little stuffed cat decoration that sang this when you pressed its foot so I guess it's nostalgic to me.

-Little Saint Nick by the Beach Boys. I just think it's funny.

-like 2 specific versions of Silent Night. Of course, I don't know which specific versions I like and always get excited when I hear this song (and then I get dissapointed!). They have to be a cappalla, slightly mournful, contemplative pieces for me to like them, I think. And the singers are altos or lower, voice tone wise: I am still alto-appreciative.

-----------

Anyway in the name of haterism, the christmas song that *most* makes me want to rip my hair out (excluding low hanging fruit like songs/covers from christmas episodes of TV shows) is Wonderful Christmastime by Paul McCartny. I maintain that this is a Temporary Secretary-level dud, especially with the terrible synths heard throughout the piece. And you gotta understand that I normally love and cherish terrible synths, in fact I pride myself on my love of albums where a band is just learning how synths work and they isolate their whole audience by using too many synths (broadsword and the beast by jethro tull is a personal favorite of this genre, and I really regret to say it because I love it so so much and it's one of my top albums of all time and it's so so good but ELO's TIME is this too...). That is to say, you should take me seriously when I say the synths seriously detract from the piece by being awful.

Dishonorable mentions include I'm Gonna Lasso Santa Claus by Brenda Lee (because it portrays the singer as being too childishly naive *not for believing in Santa, but for wanting to help less fortunate kids* and that shitty, "it's childish to care about inequality" perspective genuinely pisses me off to the point where hearing this song makes me need to take a breather. Still preferrable to Mccartney, though...). Also: pretty much anything that tries to be explicitly funny, because they're never funny and they oftentimes aren't well composed since they're "just novelty songs" that assume they can stand on their "comedic value" (ex: The 12 Pains of Christmas, Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer, the Alvin and the Chipmunks song, anything by a stand up comedian, etc).

Anyway this took me like 2 hours and I need to do other things today. :/. If anyone has any faves/least faves, drop them in the replies? Like comment and subscribe baybee.

I've been tagged by both @alexa-alcantara and @awwyeah107

so. here goes nothing.

last song I listened to: idk it was a playlist for my fic, I forget where I left off. my fav artists are (v angsty) Citizen Soldier, NF, Ashes Remain, I've been getting more and more into Aviators and Metallica, aand... ah yes Lindsey Stirling, she's my go-to for background music whether for writing, work, or school. I don't have a "favorite" author per se, so she's the one I name when I'm asked.

currently watching: zero things at all thank you :) I don't do TV anything really. I consider it brainrot (the bad, passive kind) as oppose to normal brainrot (the good, creative, can't stop thinking abt it, etc kind). but sigh. the last thing I watched (only thing I really have ever watched) was Miraculous Ladybug: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir. which is awesome. I bet you've seen me post about it. (I HAVE seen like. movies. on and off throughout my childhood we've had times where we had a movie night every week, but I don't remember the last of those either.)

spicy/sweet/savory: depends on the food .... a;sdlkja;lkdsfj;alkdfj except spicy. spicy is AWFUL. I really HATE spicy. I'll have sweet or savory any day. I eat finger snacks like candy, etc. while writing, that's really where it's at. skittles my beloved. cheezits my beloved.

relatioship status: single. I an asexual (sex-favorable within marriage) and a questioning aro (romance favorable). Currently trying to figure out if I'm called to singleness. I want romance and sex the same way I like cake and garlic bread: seems fun and enjoyable, I WANT it for those reasons, but it's not a drive, not a need, not an attraction. just smth I'd like. so if I'm called to singleness it'd be like saying "I'll never eat cake again" which. ouch. but it'd be fine yknow. for the sex at least. for the romance, I'm not sure about yet. that'd be a much bigger ouch to give up for life (hence questioning aro). an aro-post I saw recently talking about the hardships of aromanticism said "it's hard being nobody's priority" and YEAH. I feel that. sometimes I wonder if my desire for closeness, emotional intimacy, commitment, and being someone's priority just translates into my brain as "romance and marriage" but if, in reality, I'd be fine with a close friend? (if so I don't have that level of closeness with anyone yet.) ANYWAY, moving on -

current obsessions: the fic I'm writing. aaaaaaahhhhhhhhh (Check out @skaald-of-the-hearth-fires)

fav color: limit me to just one, how dare you. Green and blue tie for first spot currently. (green bc of sylvari from GW2. blue bc of the sky from real life). no legit I AM the 'color of the sky' post in human form. the good Lord can't make a bad sky. they're all wonderful. even cloudy-covered days are like. LORD GOD YOU MADE THE CLOUDS TOO?!?! (my fav tho is the nighttime stars. -soft scream-). second-place color is brown! (sylvari, aslo my eyes and hair are browns and. akldsf I just love woody homey color). third-place purple probably. it's a good chunk of my wardrobe (also I'm asexual and purple with black and white is asexual flag. I can't get the shades right tho ugh - )

Thank you for the tag, @afaroffsong <3

last song i listened to: *checks compilation video* Black Sails by Antti Martikainen

currently watching: Leverage, eventually, when I actually have time and energy to watch anything again

spicy/sweet/savory: Savory.

relationship status: Abigail*

current obsession(s): Nothing, at the moment 😅 Currently Real Life is taking up my entire plate. The closest one could get is knitting, I guess.

fav color: Blue. But pink, purple, green, white, gold, grey, amber, and silver are all good too.

Daishou – if u hate someone, he will too – no ifs or buts. If someone is or ever was mean to you, he’ll return that tenfold💥

Kageyama – a petty fight started bc u bought an ikea shelf and neither of u are able to put it together and now you don’t even want the shelf anymore rip :/

Tsukishima – he’ll get u things in high places – unbeknownst to u, he’s the one who puts them there in first place so u have to ask him for help

Yamaguchi – buys u plants whenever he walks past a flowershop (is also the one to water them if you forget to which is most of the time)

Daichi – will do the dishes bc he knows how much u hate the food slime that stays at the bottom 🙌

Nishinoya – thinks that burping the alphabet is a going to impress u (continues to do it even if you hate it!!!)

Kuroo – makes sure u take care of urself - like dad mode is activated (encourages a balanced diet, enough sleep and def makes important phone calls for u)

Kenma – will accurately create u in the sims as a family – if you ever get in a fight tho he will drown u in the pool 🏊‍♂️

Matsukawa – if ur feet hurt from ur shoes he will scoop u up bridal style and carry u all the way home if he has to (pretends to accidently drop u just for the lulz)

Iwaizumi – will carry all the groceries bc he refuses to make two trips and has never dropped anything… yet.

Oikawa – uploads couple selfies to social media, but only the ones where he looks best that fake mf has some NERVE

Futakuchi – gossiping abt cringey things couples do even tho u both do the exact same thing????

Kiyoko – skincare routines!!!! at-home spa days including face masks, champagne and sliced fruit + carefully curated pinterest boards for the other person💖

Semi – personally made spotify playlists – will send u songs of artists u have never heard of + casually makes songs abt u and acts like its no big deal

Suga/kita – ur parents LOVE him and they will gossip abt u when ur not in the room or on the phone👀 (parents are already talking abt future grandchildren)

Bokuto – is clueless when u send him to buy hygiene products, so instead of calling u or asking a sales assistant – he’ll buy everything he thinks u need instead (my guy bought half the aisle I can’t-)

Atsumu – DOES. NOT. KNOW. WHAT. AN. INDOOR. VOICE. IS. u walk into a store and now everyone else knows ur conversation – it’s always the most embarrassing shit too 😩

Osamu – u develop boyfriend chub bc of him. he’ll cook anything and everything for u and has made u his personal taste tester, regardless if it’s good or not

Lev – showing off outfits u bought online and late night fashion shows in the living room, lets u do his makeup💅

Tendou – suddenly shows up next to you when ur both shopping and just says “we need to leave. now.” u don’t understand what he means until a second later u smell the absolute nuke he dropped😡 (might also casually suggest starting a blood pact together)

Terushima – fuckboi in the streets but the biggest softie in the sheets??? literally follows u around like a shadow – it doesn’t matter if ur doing ur makeup, peeing or taking a bath, he just wants to be near u and watch u do stuff

Aran – makes the bed and fluffs ur pillows just to ur liking, but it doesn’t make up for the fact that he always steals the covers and talks in his sleep 😩

Akaashi – eats the tomatoes on ur burger and picks out the raisins in ur trail mix… also gets in trouble for constantly sending u snaps during work

Suna – the most bizarre food concoctions when the munchies hit at 3 am, also conversations are just constant shower thoughts with a handful of memes thrown in

Tanaka – tries to be romantic by lighting candles – almost burns ur house down instead🔥

Ushijima – opens tough-to-open jars for u and will hold ur purse whenever ur shopping. If u ever ask him if an outfit looks good on u, he’ll always say yes – mostly bc tendou told him that if he doesn’t his partner will get v v offended

favorite bands/artists: i hate these questions. currently listening to duke ellington, johnny cash, lord huron, indila, and a variety of movie soundtracks. honorable mention to batushka, ethel cain, and four fists.

last movie: buster keaton's Go West, which is heart-warming and absurd beyond belief. with a surprise helping of shockingly racist! but at least that was short-lived, and not entirely unexpected for a movie made in 1925. do watch if you want to see a lonely man befriend an outcast cow, that same man run through the streets of los angeles wearing a devil gimp suit, and can turn off your brain for approximately 1 minute during the organ grinder sequence.

last show: last one i remember clearly was Bridgerton, but that absolutely wasn't the last show i watched. star trek, probably

favorite songs: idek i'm just gonna name songs i've played a lot in the last few days. "have you checked your butthole" by tom cardy, jakub józef orliński singing "vedrò con mio diletto" (basically on repeat), "hell's comin' with me" by poor man's poison

last book i’ve read: last book i actually finished was Camera Man, by dana stevens. it was a biography of buster keaton. currently i'm in the middle of reading Buster Keaton: A Filmmaker's Life by james curtis, Keaton by rudi blesh, and Buster Keaton's Sherlock Jr., ed. andrew horton, an essay collection analyzing one of his movies (i know i have a condition, it's terminal). other books i'm reading are Madam: The Biography of Polly Adler by debby applegate (1920s prostitution), Rank Ladies: Gender and Cultural Hierarchy in American Vaudeville by m. alison kibler (what it says on the tin), The Myth of Prison Rape: Sexual Culture in American Prisons by mark fleisher and jessie krienert (basically saying that rape exists, but not using the definitions of civilian society; extremely interesting read), and The Ukulele Handbook by gavin pretor-pinney and tom hodgkinson. i am actually reading all of them, but it's going pretty slowly.

top 3 fictional universes i’d like to live in: star trek for sure. i read a lot of crapsack world scifi, tho, so that's it.

Title : Our Wife

Pairing : Sakusa Kiyoomi x Female!Reader x Miya Atsumu

Warning : blood ig, curse words, attempted rape, torture, and mentions of death

Credits : to the artists regarding the drawings of Sakusa Kiyoomi and Miya Atsumu found on the banner- i saved them from pinterest I think.

Note : do not copy or repost this anywhere else. I do not write Haikyuu!! fics anywhere else.

Y/n Miya-Sakusa was scared. No- scratch that- you were terrified.

You wouldn’t show it to your captors though- your husbands taught you to never show fear- but Jesus Christ- you were terrified not only for yourself but more so for your unborn child- a child you didn’t even know existed until half an hour before you got kidnapped from your own room. For the past hour that you’ve been tied to a chair in the middle of the room, they haven’t touched your body. The same couldn’t be said for your face. Half of your face was covered in slightly dried blood; blood that came a wound you got when they slammed your head against the edge of your beside drawer to knock you unconscious, and a spilt lip that was still bleeding slightly from when they punched you when you spat at the face of the person who demanded your husbands’ locations and the locations of all your warehouses. The thought alone made you scoff- you’re no rat. Unlike whoever the hell gave your home’s location away. Your husbands were going to be so pissed when they find you gone and your shared room thrashed about.

Sitting on the wooden chair was become a pain in the ass. Literally. You couldn’t even escape because of the metal cuffs attached to your wrists, forearms, and ankles and they took your daggers away. You’re stuck and all you can do it wait. Wait for either your husbands to burst through the door or wait for your promised torture session and possible death.

Minutes- hours- who knows how long later, two men in black barged into the room, startling you from your daydream carrying knives with guns in their holsters. Well... looks like your Omi and Tsumu are too late huh...

“Ready, Princess?” thing 1 with an eyepatch said with a smile, showing his yellow teeth, “Boss said we gots to kill ye before yer husbands get here. Ye know, so they barge in ‘ere only to see yer bleeding body. Even better if they get to see yer naked corpse, doncha think?”

“Boss said not to rape her tho-” thing 1 interrupted thing 2, “what boss doesn’t know won’t hurt ‘im. And besides- I wanna leave Miya a surprise for stabbing my eye.”

And just as thing 1 started moving towards you, a scream was heard from outside the door and echoed into the room, sending shivers down things 1 and 2’s spines. You, on the hand, smiled. They’re here... fucking finally.

“What was that?” Thing 2 looked around nervously. Huh- he must be new to the business. Poor guy he won’t make it far at this point. Thing 1 shrugged, “eh who cares? There’s no one we can’t kill.” he boasted. Dumb overconfident pig.

Another scream rang through followed by a shout of terror, “THEY’RE HERE!” that was cut off as a loud gunshot echoed through the walls followed by a series of bangs and clangs. The familiar sound brought you off guard- they brought everyone? You were sure that that clang was from Michinari’s favorite weapon- his metal bat. Where were you and who took you that they felt it necessary to have everyone here? You were brought out of your train of thoughts when you realized that all of a sudden everything and everyone was silent. All you can hear was your own heartbeat.

“Ah fuck it-” thing 1 looked at your form with a crazed look in his eyes that sent shivers down your spine.

“Dude what are you-”

“Well it’s obvious we won’t make it out alive-”

“Wait what?”

“-might as well have fun before we die, ey?”

With that said he closed the gap between you two. You felt your mind blank as tears started forming in your eyes. The moment he ripped Atsumu’s shirt from your person, the tears fell along with the loudest scream you could muster, “OMI! ATS-” you were cut off as thing 1 smacked your cheek with the butt of his gun, “shut up ye lil bitch. Yer not leavin til I get my f-”

Thing 2 was suddenly down- a hole on the side of his head. None of you even heard the door open so that meant Shinsuke was here- well him or Rintarou since they’re the stealthiest in your family.

Thing 1 suddenly stood up straight and placed his hands up with his palms up and blocking your view from whoever was with you two in the room, “hey uhhh I was forced to do this, mates- it- it wasn’t anything personal, yea?” Sat on a wooden chair in just your undergarments and the remnants of one of your husbands’ shirt, you let a small smile appear on your face. They’re here. You and your little bean are safe now.

Rintarou stepped out of the shadows and from his voice you could tell he looked bored, “so... where is she?”

Thing 1 shook his head, having lost his voice the moment his eyes met the bored yet malicious ones of one Suna Rintarou- one of the deadliest assassins of the Inarizaki family, and prayed that the fox wouldn’t notice your bleeding form behind him.

The moment you let out a sob, he pushed thing 1 away and squatted in front of you. And he was not happy with what he saw was done to you-

He saw your bloody and bruised face. He saw your shaking hands and the tears you let flow from your eyes. But what angered him the most was the fact that someone he viewed as his little sister lost the brightness is her eyes.

Any chance the idiot had with reasoning with him was gone.

“Congratulations, idiot. You’ve secured a spot in our personal dungeon.” Rintarou smiled as he heard a sharp thump before the telltale sound of a body hitting the ground, “you didn’t hit him too hard, did you, Shinsuke-san?”

“Not hard enough.”

“Ok- let’s get these off of you before your hubbies come in here,” with that said both men started unlocking the cuffs trapping you onto the chair. After freeing you, you were immediately hit with the feeling of fatigue and let your body fall onto the person closest to you. Shinsuke caught your semi-limp body and immediately became worried but calmed down as he felt your breaths. He arranged your position so that you were laying across his lap, facing the roof of the cell. Rintarou settled himself beside Shinsuke after texting Kiyoomi your location- receiving an immediate reply that they’ll be there as soon as Atsumu is out of his blood haze. Shinsuke brushed his hand through your hair but immediately stopped when you whimpered, “hit- t-table- home.”

The two men exchanged worried glances when you stared up at them with your eyelids slowly closing. Rintarou tapped your cheek, “Y/n-chan, stay awake- how do you feel right now?”

“Aish of all the questions Rin-”

“B-baby...”

“Kiyoomi-san and Tsumu will be he-”

“M-my baby...” their eyes widened as you shakily placed your hand onto your tummy before falling limp in Shinsuke’s arms. He refrained from panicking when he saw your chest still rising and falling in patterns- you probably fainted from exhaustion.

“Holy shi-”

“Y/N!”

The moment the two saw your limp body they assumed the worst- but as Atsumu was about to yell out his rage and sorrow, Osamu appeared from the shadows and hit the back of his head, “she’s breathing, you moron.”

“I knew that, shitface.”

“Who ya callin’ shitface, ya pig?”

“Who ya callin’ a pi-”

“Aran,” Kiyoomi calmly spoke as he turned to face the hitman- ignoring his husband and brother-in-law, “lead the way out- make sure that there will be no delays. We must take Y/n to Motoya immediately- we don’t know the extent of her wounds- however they look... less than favorable as of the moment.”

At the reminder of your current condition, the twins shutted up, “Osamu,”

“Yeah, Omi-san?”

“Bring that thing with us.” was muttered with great disdain while his finger was pointed towards the unconscious thing 1.

And so they left the building covered in blood with neutral faces.

They may not show it but they were livid.

They didn’t miss your tear and blood stained face nor the the fact that your shirt was ripped right down the middle.

They knew what was going to happen to you had they been a second late.

“Hitoshi and Heisuke are already tracking the rats- we’ll have them in the basement by tonight,” informed Kiyoomi’s trustworthy gunsmith, Tsukasa Iizuna.

“They better- only question now is who gets first dibs on the assholes.”

As they settled into the car, Shinsuke told them the news of your latest surprise. He knew that they’d go even more ballistic were they to find out during the check-up from Motoya. But since they were in a closed and moving car with you on their laps, they couldn’t really do much except stiffen and let their rage grow stronger- and he looks forward to seeing what they’ll do to the bastards tonight. Shinsuke, above all things, is a man of honor- and what he hates above all things, are traitors.

“PLEASE! I’M SORRY! PLEA- AHHH” Thing 1 screamed as Kiyoomi dug his dagger deeper into the man’s shoulder- forming a hollow hole of sort.

“Just a little more... I want to see if your bones are clean or if they need to cleansed as well-”

“Omi-omi~ I want my turn !” whined Atsumu as he crossed his arms and pouted at his husband.

Kiyoomi rolled his eyes, “you had your turn five minutes ago when you spilled acid onto his legs- it’s my turn now.” with that said, Kiyoomi ripped his dagger from the man’s flesh without a warning and grabbing a bowl from the prisoner’s ‘meal’, poured the bowl of scalding hot soup into the hollow flesh.

And as the man wailed, the two traitors squirmed in fear as they awaited their turns.

“We don’t usually go to this extent but what can we say...”

“No one messes with our wife.”

valentine’s day with the dreamies ❤️

hella belated valentine’s day scenarios / dates with ot7 dream hehe <3 

mark lee:

took a while for him to decide on a plan for the day

didn’t want to disappoint you )):

settled with a nice trip to the beach, waiting to watch the sunset as you both had a nice dinner together

he wanted to take you away from the chaos of both your busy lives and just have time to relax with each other

he knows how tired you’ve been lately and just wants to give you some healing time

and he also wanted to profess his love for you on the beach

listening to the waves crash on the sand, the calling of seagulls, the laughter of other couples and families around you

as the sun started setting, you were leaning into mark’s side, his arm draped around your shoulders

he wrapped the both of you in a blanket as you reminisced about your relationship

“remember how you were scared shitless to ask me out? i thought you were going to faint”

“i was not scared! i just ate a bad sandwich that day” mark grumbled, hiding his face in your shoulder

you gently stroked his hair as you continued the trip down memory lane

the sky was now a mix of purple and pink hues

you immediately jumped up, pulling out your phone, to snap a picture of the gorgeous scenery

mark slowly met you, pulling your phone down, holding his hands in yours

he leant down to place a soft kiss on your lips, causing you to smile in between the pecks

“i love you” he mumbled, barely loud enough for you to hear

“i love you too”

he ended up pulling out his own fancy camera, taking quick snaps of you being silly infront of the sunset

he eventually asked a nice lady to take some photos for the both of you in which she couldn’t help but coo

“you two make a beautiful couple”

heat rose to both your cheeks, too flustered by the compliment of a stranger

you spent to the rest of night chatting, too caught up endless conversations

huang renjun:

“hey, if your cute ass isn’t here in 10 minutes i’m packing up all the paints and sulking in my room for the rest of the day”

renjun texted you the morning of valentine’s day

you were already on your way to surprise him with your own small gift, having him rush you was adding to your nerves

this would be be first official valentine’s day you’d be spending together so you wanted everything to be perfect

you enthusiastically knock on his door, in which he opened instantly

he pulled you inside, dragging you to the backyard where he set up a nice picnic blanket with paints and canvases on a small table

you couldn’t help but admire all the effort he put in

you gave him a quick hug, your hold lingering on him for longer than he thought

you handed him your gift bag, filled with snacks he loved and a panda plushie with a heart attached to it

he pouted at how adorable your gift was, pulling you down to sit with him

“thank you for the gifts, babe! i hope you also like out little painting date!”

he queued up a tutorial video as you both started recreating the beautiful landscape shown

although you weren’t the best artist he had ever met

renjun couldn’t stop giggling at how concentrated you were with every stroke

“something funny?”

“nah you’re just the cutest”

subtle compliments like that was his specialty

you continued to paint as you snacked on various fruits and biscuits as well as caught up on current events in your lives

it was now time for the big reveal of your artworks...

renjun obviously outshone you but he still insisted you hang both paintings in his room for the memories 

he’d take lots of polaroids to put into his photo album of your memories 

huang renjun didn’t see the big deal in grand gestures for valentine’s day, as he saw every day, as a day to treat you well

lee jeno:

this boy would wake you up at the crack of dawn, practically jumping on you to go biking with him

you had flashbacks to the previous night where you agreed to go with him but immediately regretted staying up to watch new episodes of your favourite drama

jeno dragged you around your shared apartment like a rag doll, helping you change and stay awake

you knew how excited he was to take you biking for the first time, you didn’t want to crush his spirit

so you started slapping your cheeks and jumping up and down to remain awake, which jeno found amusing

you followed closely behind him as he led you through the trail

his initial idea was to get to the top before sunrise so you both could watch it together

but once he reached half way, jeno had an inkling that you were way behind

he was right

he stopped completely to wait for you, more concerned about how you were holding up rather than getting to the top

you were huffing and puffing

“why’d you stop? we have to get to the top!”

“have a sip first, babe” he pats your back as he hands you his water bottle

you felt bad for holding him back, but his concerned expression eased your mind

“we don’t have to get to the top, the sun will rise either way! who says we can’t just watch it from here?” he smiles widely at you

what did you do to deserve him?

you both stood with each other, his arm draped around your waist

the sun slowly started rising, your tired eyes glimmering in admiration

jeno’s eyes were fixed on you tho,, so proud that you attempted to bike with him

he was usually the one who always wanted to do things you liked

but when you agreed to go on this date with him, it just about made him pass out

he felt on top of the world with you by his side

this was a date he will never forget

lee donghyuck:

“really? a couple’s cooking class?” your boyfriend whined (he really loved doing that)

“yes! renjun suggested it to me, it will be fun, i promise!” you plead

as much as he loved to bicker with you, he saw how excited you were to participate in this class for valentine’s day

“do you know what we’re cooking at least?”

“i think we’re baking a cake, actually”

shouldn’t be too bad...he thought to himself

but boy was he WRONG

you both came to realise that you were not the best cooking duo in your friend group

but it didn’t mean you were gonna give up, after all, having donghyuck as your boyfriend made you as competitive as him (if that’s even possible)

he read the instructions as you grabbed the ingredients and threw them in a bowl

he would hype you up from the side like

“that’s my baby, you beat those eggs!” “our cake is gonna look so freaking good”

you would get flustered, earning a smile from the chef teaching the class

once the decoration stage came along, donghyuck insisted he do it on his own

he refused to let you watch him as he did the finishing touches

the chef revealed each cake one by one, when he got to yours, he gave you both a soft smile

“you two make such a sweet couple”

you looked down at the cake, the words

“i love you always and forever” were written on the surface

you were about to burst into tears at how sweet your boyfriend was

when you got home, after taking hundreds of photos with the beautifully decorated cake

you both devoured it like animals while watching tv together 

a simple, yet memorable valentine’s day date — you couldn’t wait to tell your friends all about it

na jaemin:

as some of y’all know, jaemin used to be a short speed track racer

so naturally he was down for your idea of going ice skating for valentine’s day

you weren’t aware of how skilled he was at skating — as you yourself were merely a beginner

so when you saw how knowledgeable jaemin was when you entered the ice skating rink, you started feeling nervous 

jaemin helped strap your skates on, carefully guiding you to the rink

you were still under the impression he was just as bad as you, but once you both stepped on the ice, he was immediately stable

god, he could even skate backwards 

this must be so embarrassing for him to see 

you started pouting,

“what’s wrong, baby?”

“i didn’t know you could skate so well! i’m so embarrassed, i can barely skate two metres!”

“i can teach you, don’t worry so much” he smiled softly at you, hands gripping yourself tightly

you couldn’t stay mad at him, immediately following his instructions

thirty minutes later, one really bruised butt cheek and some elbow bruises from falling down so much, you started getting the hang of it

jaemin let go of your hands and let you skate towards him, once you reached him, he wrapped you in his arms tightly, still gliding on the ice

your faces were so close, you could feel his breath fan your cheeks

you gave him a quick peck, mumbling a quiet ‘i love you’

jaemin couldn’t contain how adorable you were, giving you another quick kiss before telling you he loved you more than life itself

you both skated for a while, listening to throwback love songs playing over the speakers

he rarely let go of your hand, even when you insisted you were getting the hang of skating alone 

he treated you to some french fries and ice cream after you finished skating 

you laughed and chatted the day away, without a care in the world 

being inlove with jaemin was something you would never trade for anything else in the world

zhong chenle:

a homemade dinner was always something you raved about to chenle

so once valentine’s day approached,, he made sure to give you the best dinner you could have ever imagined

he was on a call with his mum, following her instructions for the most perfect creamy pasta

you on the other hand, decided to make chocolate covered strawberries to have after dinner

you asked jaemin for help but then he just screamed he hates strawberries and left

you were placing the finishing touches on the desserts when your phone dings that chenle was ready for you to come over

you dropped everything, rushing to find the outfit you had picked earlier that day

you carefully wrapped the box of strawberries before making your way to his place

he practically swung the door open for you, pulling you to the dining table

he was hella dramatic and had those fancy covers for the food,, so he could surprise you

you just chuckled at his antics, placing a soft kiss to his cheek which made him heat up

he slowly revealed the meal he worked hard on the entire afternoon

your eyes glimmered at the sight, your mouth beginning to water

“how’d you know i love creamy pasta?”

“i listen to you when you talk, ya know”

you both enjoyed a pleasant dinner, chatting all about recent events in your life

the meal was delicious,, but it was now time for dessert

chenle practically ripped open the box, devouring one strawberry before you could even show off your creations

“you animal” you softly shove him, taking one for yourself

the rest of the night was filled with commentating cheesy romance movies and snacking on the desserts

once you finished eating, chenle handed you a small box

you opened it slowly, your jaw dropping at the gorgeous ring he had bought for you

he bought you both promise rings oop 

you squealed before tackling him in a warm embrace

nothing felt better than being wrapped in his arms

park jisung:

sungie: meet me on the rooftop at 8:30

you: uhhh you’re not gonna fight me, are you?

sungie: shut up and get ready

you giggled at his response, giddy about seeing your boyfriend on valentine’s day

you weren’t sure what he had planned, but you were sure he put a lot of thought into it

even tho jisung doesn’t voice his thoughts, something is always going on with that boy

you made your way to the said rooftop he referred to, cautiously walking over to him

he set up two beach chairs with a small table filled with both of your favourite snacks

you also noticed two telescopes placed in front of the chairs, smiling widely to yourself

“is this what i think it is?”

“yes! we’re stargazing tonight! i know how much you’ve been wanting to do so”

you sat down next to him, taking your own telescope in your hands

you couldn’t believe he organised this date, from the fairy lights around the railing of the rooftop to the soft r&b playlist playing in the background

it was perfect

jisung couldn’t take his eyes off you, too eager to determine if you truly liked the idea

when your eyes met, you couldn’t help but lean closer to him

jisung didn’t pull away, smirking to himself before suddenly pecking your lips

jisung also wasn’t usually the one to initiate affection, so this was just another surprise you could never get over

you both giggled, pointing out the different constellations you could make out

you chatted about random things, from video games to school, to when jaemin yelled at chenle’s s/o for making chocolate covered strawberries

everything felt at ease when you were with jisung

he knew you didn’t want such a big fuss for valentine’s day, but you could have never suspected he’d do this all for you

“thankyou for all of this”

“anything for my baby”

and in that moment, you knew, you were falling inlove with park jisung.

Hey, I just read your post on ADHD/EFDD and was just wondering if you have read any research articles on this and if you have, could you tell me which ones because it all sounds super interesting and I need to choose a topic for my psych lit review and I’m thinking about doing something to do with all the stigma around and misconceptions about different mental health disorders.. it’s totally okay if not tho, I know it’s a big ask, but thanks anyway

That sounds like such a great topic!!! I would be HONORED to help :D 

The first person I think of when discussing the term EFDD is Dr. Russell Barkley. He’s one of the leading ADHD experts, and has been a spearhead for studying executive dysfunction in people with ADHD for decades. Very much ahead of his time compared to the DSM. I’ve had his book “Taking Charge of Adult ADHD” recommended to me so many times, but have yet to read it.

Here’s some free stuff, though! 

[reblogs appreciated because Tumblr hates posts with links and I wanna make sure this anon sees it!]

I tried to include some short stuff and longer stuff, some articles, images, videos, and comic recs, so you can choose based on your current energy and focus level :) I’ve also bolded links and key points of each source if you like skimming. Let’s go!

...................................

Here’s an interesting article/study on EFDD! They found that “ADHD [is] associated with deficits in inhibition, managing one’s attention, self-directed speech and rule-following, self-motivation, and even self-awareness [...] ADHD therefore involves deficits in self-restraint, [...] selfsensing and imagery, self-control of emotion, and self-directed play for problem-solving.”

Thank you for motivating me to look up some articles, because I learned some new things, too! For instance, they assert that ADHD could also be called SRDD (Self-Regulation Deficit Disorder), but conclude the article by saying either SRDD or EFDD fits better than ADHD, and that the terms could be used interchangeably, because SR (self-regulation) and EF (executive function) are effectively talking about the same things. So his assertion is that even if the name ADHD never changes, it can still be scientifically classified as either of the other terms. I believe in recent years he’s preferred EFDD more and more.

[note that the above article/study is from 2011, back when we were on the DSM-IV, so a lot of research has been done since then]

...................................

If that article’s a bit wordy or you want something more visual and up-to-date, here’s a really detailed PowerPoint presentation used during the 2018 ADHD Symposium! It’s long but well-organized so you can just read the big headers or you can read all the bullet points explaining it. Keep in mind this was a lecture, so some of it probably made more sense in person. I’m glad I read this, because I realize the terminology I’ve used is slightly off: according to the Symposium, there aren’t “subtypes” of ADHD, but the different names (ADHD-PI, ADHD-PH, and ADHD-C) are really just used to show the prevalence of certain symptoms in that individual. So they’re all terms for ADHD, but “subtype” was poor word choice on my part. 

Oh! I just found a video of him giving a lecture in 2012 using many of the same PowerPoint slides! Here ya go! It’s a bit longer than the other videos I’ve linked below (13min), but it might make the slides easier to interpret :)

...................................

If you want a really short and basic overview, here’s a video explaining 5 main ways executive functions affect the brain and how they work differently in people with ADHD. [I put the video below as well if you wanna stay on tumblr] It’s from 2010, but it holds up. It only covers 5 big ones, so remember (if you can) that executive function affects EVERYTHING and the symptoms will affect everyone differently and at different levels. 

This is just the most basic overview and a good place to start:

...................................

Here’s one where he talks about our Time-Blindness! (below) I was going to pick a couple favorite quotes to give you an idea, but that’d wind up being a transcript of the whole video because HE GETS IT. This is from 2014, but I CANNOT recommend it enough!!! He mentions that ADHD doesn’t have a deficit of attention, but rather a deficit of intention. He describes us as having a near-sighted sense of time, and talks about deadlines, “laziness,” etc.

 ALSO he talks about how our brains DON’T CONNECT our knowledge to our performance (back of brain to front) like everyone else’s, so we have the same level of knowledge and intelligence, but can’t access and use it the way others can. This is why teaching skills and organization/memory/time-management tips isn’t helpful -- we can learn them, but our knowledge and action centers are separated, so actually doing them/sticking with them is just as hard as before. 

If you don’t watch the whole thing, at least skip to 3:29 cause that part’s really funny and relatable (ok the whole thing is relatable):

...................................

And of course, I highly recommend the YouTube channel How to ADHD! I have a couple friends who work on it, and they REALLY know their stuff! (They’re the ones who taught me during a game night that RSD isn’t a real term and it should be called “rejection-sensitivity” as part of the emotional dysregulation umbrella) 

I went looking and found this video (below) has the BEST explanation of it that I’ve seen in such a concise, entertaining way. I hadn’t seen this one before, but it even covers some of the things I mentioned in that post your ask is about! Especially the Internal Restlessness that I mentioned as the true “hyperactivity” we all share; even though some of us also express outward hyperactivity, both presentations come from the same restlessness in our brains.

^^^This has some great examples, visuals, animations, and different ways of explaining and thinking about our symptoms! If you want more about this, the description has a bunch of links to their sources! Jessica and everyone else who works on this channel is great at making the videos watchable for people with ADHD (even if we have to rewind sometimes)

Here's Jessica's official Twitter @HowtoADHD! (I was today years old when I found out that she follows me)

...................................

And if you want something REALLY short and simple, here’s a 2 minute animation comparing living with ADHD to trying to film a movie with a director who keeps falling asleep [below]

....................................

If you like comics:

My favorite ADHD comic artists are: ADHD Alien [@ADHD_Alien on Twitter and @adhd-alien on Tumblr]; Dani Donovan [@danidonovan on Twitter and @danidonovan on Tumblr -- we’re somehow twitter mutuals and she is such a sweetheart. She has some really good infographics, too!!]; ADHD Bri [@AdhdBri on Twitter and @adhdbri on Tumblr]; and dreamadept [@yume_dango on Twitter and @yume-dango on Tumblr]

They’re all well-researched, funny, genuine, intelligent, insightful, talented artists who depict ADHD in a very accurate and relatable way. Go check ‘em out and support them! :D

....................................

I’m gonna stop there for now, but PLEASE feel free to add on to this with other sources, questions, videos, thoughts, comic artists, etc.!!! Hope this helps someone out there!
