More About Nightwing Powers
I decided I had more to say about this post, so I reblogged it and wrote some more. It seems like when you do that Tumblr doesn't put the post into tag searches, so nobody can actually find it. I'm just going to copy the full text into a new post. I'm sorry if this spams anyone's feed, I just don't understand how this site works yet. I've never actually had a blog before.
-----
Ohhhh damn I just had another thought about this. This is my problem, I think about this stuff all the time and I keep coming up with new things I think are cool, but now that I've written all this out and published it for the whole world to see I can't change it so easily.
It's actually fine though. These thoughts are kind of a mix of things I think are canon but sufficiently non-obvious to be worth stating (All Nightwings have powers at hatching and then lose them), things that are definitely not canon but I feel like it doesn't mess with the story too much to change them (Prophets have a silver scale on their foreheads), and things that are ambiguous and I'm just filling in the blanks (fake Nightwing magic is based on their sense of smell). But there's a fourth category, which is things that I don't like about canon but changing them would basically entail writing a whole new story. I'm pretty sure this new idea falls into the latter category, so I wouldn't really have put it in that post anyway.
But let's explore the hypothesis that Tui T Sutherland and Scholastic collectively lose their minds and give me the rights to Wings of Fire, and also I have infinite time, resources and motivation to make my own adaptation of the story. Then what happens? Well, the first thing is obviously to change animus magic to be something other than total omnipotence, because omnipotent characters are the kind of albatross (tee hee) you don't want around your neck when you're trying to write a coherent story. And the second thing is to make it so the terrible Rainwing queens in book 3 are hereditary royalty and Glory is not, because I've never liked the valorisation of hereditary royalty in WOF (or in general), and that would be an easy way to subvert that. And THEN I would turn scavengers into lizard people, because I am a furry and I think that's cuter than making them humans. Lol.
But somewhere down the list would be the fact that I don't actually vibe with the idea that normal Nightwing seers/mind readers apparently have a built-in power limiter that varies randomly according to the specific individual, and the special gift you get for hatching under three moons is just to have that limiter set to 0. I don't like this because, first of all, the fact that it works like that just doesn't fit into my brain in a satisfactory way. Hatching under zero, one, or two full moons each results in a qualitatively different outcome, so in my mind, the third full moon should also do something qualitatively different. But it doesn't, it's just the same as two full moons but better. And then I'm left to assume that there are probably very rare cases of twice-moonborn Nightwings who have all the power, just because whatever secondary factors there are happened to line up in their favor? Weird.
But the more important reason is, I don't really like the idea of Clearsight as someone who has extraordinary power because she just hatched that way. Nor do I like the fact that the reasons for this are, on the one talon, unexplained (maybe inexplicable?), and on the other, not a function of who she is as a character. I think it would make for a much stronger motif if run-of-the-mill seer Clearsight were able to take down once-in-a-generation chosen one Darkstalker because she's diligent and doesn't believe in destiny while he's entitled and sure of his glorious future. At its core this feeling is actually the same thing as what I said about the Rainwing queens above: I just don't find it satisfying when the hero has some kind of special trait that makes them naturally better than everyone else. A villain can have that, but a hero I want to prove themselves through their own efforts. But that's explicitly not what happened in canon: Clearsight IS naturally more powerful than all the other seers, that's an essential part of her story, and changing it requires basically rewriting the books. I don't love it!
So anyway in the universe where I'm rewriting the books, here's a thought about how Nightwing powers might work. This partially contradicts what I wrote above, but I've decided I'm cool with that. I love contradicting myself actually, and maybe next week I'll contradict all of this again. There are no laws.
Some Nightwings are seers, some are mind readers, a few are both, and most are neither. But aside from the fact that an individual might or might not have these powers, they don't vary in strength from dragon to dragon. All seers have equally strong abilities, and all mind readers have equally strong abilities. But the strength of the abilities does vary: not per individual, but over time. Specifically, the current state of the moons affects the abilities of empowered Nightwings. On a hypothetical "darkest night" with three new moons, all Nightwings are effectively powerless. On the brightest night, empowered Nightwings experience the full strength of their abilities. Seers can easily look down many different paths into the distant future, and mind readers can easily examine any information in the mind of another dragon. Of course, the phases of the three moons are not synchronous. Most of the time, the moons are all in different states, and empowered Nightwings experience abilities somewhere in between those extremes.
Above, I said that the "strength" of Nightwing abilities doesn't really vary per dragon. Strength, as I use the term here, only refers to the raw potential to look into the future or into another dragon's mind. But different individuals do have different levels of adeptness when it comes to applying their abilities. On the brightest night, any seer can look with relative ease into the far future, down multiple timelines, examining subtle ripples of possibility. The rest of the time, most seers can't use their abilities on that level, but a particularly adept one can get closer. What makes one seer more adept than another? Well, it's really just training. If you're someone who, for whatever reason, keeps looking into the future, over time you'll get better at it, just like anything you keep doing. This is what sets Clearsight apart from her peers. She isn't more blessed by the moons than them, because no seer is more blessed by the moons than any other. Clearsight just looks into the future all the time, to a degree nobody else does. She works harder on her visions than any other seer, so her abilities are more advanced than those of any other seer.
There is one exception to the maxim "no seer is more blessed by the moons than any other". The special gift of the thrice-moonborn is that they are exempt from the cyclical waning and waxing of power with the phases of the moons. They hatch on the brightest night, and its power soaks into them and becomes permanently part of them. And so, they live as if every night is a brightest night. They always have the potential to see the ripples that spread into many distant futures, and they can always pluck any information they want out of another dragon's mind. What other Nightwings may train and train for, these dragons do as easily as they breathe.
There are few Nightwings who never dreamed as dragonets about what it would be like to have hatched under three full moons. How different their lives could have been from those of the common powerless Nightwing, or even ordinary seers and mind readers! And not just directly because of what they could see: the thrice-moonborn are almost inevitably beloved by their tribe, showered with attention, and elevated to the highest strata of society. Wouldn't that be nice, think the dragons who could have walked that path but for something as meaningless as the sky under which they hatched.
It's unsurprising that many covet that life, but it's not entirely as pleasant as they imagine. The adulation that surrounds the most powerful Nightwings is instrumental. As laid out in excruciating detail just behind the eyes of smiling dragons, few love them for who they are; many more love them for what they are. They will never have any interaction with friends or family that isn't fundamentally shaped by the asymmetrical power dynamic implied by their abilities. It's easy for a dragon in that situation to become profoundly isolated, especially without support. But the brightest night comes so rarely that most Nightwings who receive its gift will grow up with neither peers, nor mentors who can relate to these experiences. That many ultimately respond in unhealthy, self-destructive ways is a given; that the self-destruction of such powerful dragons often also destroys those around them is a recurring tragedy in the history of the tribe.
But it's not inevitable. No dragon's fate is actually written in the stars or sealed by the moons. It's always possible to choose a different future.
#the nice thing about making a blog is that now i can record the infinite cascade of thoughts im always having about night dragon moon magic#without feeling like im compelling any particular person to listen#next time ill talk about a different topic though#probably#wings of fire#wof#wof headcanon#headcanon#wof nightwing#nightwing#wof clearsight#clearsight#wof darkstalker#darkstalker

Yeah, this could totally work to, that's also a funny way to look at it! Totally down with it! Totally fine with this concept...
BUT!
In defense of the sweetheart that is Charles Rowland, Crystal laughs at him because he uses 80sâ slang! Not because what he means by it doesn't land/work!
Post Writing Note: This turned into an essay, I'm sorry đĽ˛
âWeâve met psychics before, but none as fit as you.â - Using the word âfitâ as a means of calling someone attractive is very dated, and it feels like it. There's some slang from other decades that can be said, knowing and recognizing its' intended era, but still lands as well, if that makes any sense?
I was actually super curious about it and looked up '80s' slang, and almost everything is still commonly used today, that I never knew apparently originated in the 80s'.
Just to name a few of the most common ones, cause a lot of them are used, but these stand out:
Leaving quickly - bounce, split, book it, dip
Descriptors meaning "cool" - awesome, excellent, stellar, wicked
Saying "yes" or agreeing - big time, for sure, I kid you not, most definitely
Emphasis & comparison - like (like, you know, how we add it in the middle of sentences, like, randomly), mad (it was mad hot outside), major (something important, rather than actually large in size), scarf (scarfing down food, not a literal scarf), peg (i didn't peg you as a [blank] person),
Positive descriptors for people/things - BFF, fave, fine, legit, chill
Negative descriptors for people/things - airhead, chicken, harsh, lame
Various phrases - freak out, bite me, clutch (like coming in clutch),
Class & culture related - boy toy, chocoholic, couch potato, hacker, jock, nerd, valley girl
Hip Hop terms - beatbox, dope, hood, hype
This is the list I found BTW if you're wondering.
âIt would be a shame if dandelions exploded out of your face. Because I think your face is pretty mint.â - Again, the word âmintâ is so weird in todayâs context; we donât really use it to mean appearance or quality anymore, only for like, vintage collectible items like âmint conditionâ.
âRight, thatâs all true. But your case is still our favorite, Crystal.â - Her smile in response to that one is not mocking/pitying like the others, it's genuinely, she seems to think that one was kind of sweet; she knows what heâs doing, but also knows heâs not being ingenuine about it
"I will always hit a demon with a cricket bat for you." - Not even sure if this counts as flirting since he would probably say this platonically anyway, but pretty sure this one is supposed to be worded a little silly to help cheer her up after so much negative emotion.
"He's wrong, you know. You're still pretty damn special." - This could also be said platonically, but looking at it romantically, it doesn't not work; she's just overwhelmed after having an emotional breakdown caused by her demon ex-boyfriend, and they're in the middle of a forest with a ghost-eating mushroom monster on the loose. This not the place, nor do they have the time for "emotional bullshit" as Crystal calls it. It's clear that she's knows he means it, and she's touched by it, which on top of all the other emotions she was feeling was too much for that moment.
Crystal does end up reciprocating, so all of this to say that Charles has rizz! While I think that would be an interesting direction, my heart just cried out when you suggested Charles gets ignored and laughed at. I can't handle more of this boy being made to feel inadequate đ
Thanks for reading!! If you enjoyed this short essay & would like to support me, you can give me a tip on my Ko-Fi! âşď¸
everyone is talking about zero rizz edwin. which is fair. but i would like to raise you: zero rizz charles.
of course everyone loves charles, but when he actively tries to flirt with crystal, she just laughs at him. edwin, on the other hand, has been feeling much bolder ever since the events of port townsend, and has taken to âharmlesslyâ charming some of the fitter men they encounter on the job. no matter what, charles just canât seem to replicate it, and most of them ignore charles completely.
obviously, charlesâ first instinct is to get protective over edwin. heâs thrilled that his best mate has learned to accept himself, but he canât shake this sinking, horrid, feeling in his gut whenever edwin gives their newest interviewee a look that heâs never seen before; something flirtatious and absolutely stunning on him.
heâs probably just jealous that everyone likes edwin more right? heâs just not used to his mate being the one doing the charming

HAUNTED HOUSE !
HALLOWEEN TXT EDITION!
txt x neutral reader !
WARNING !: cursing! knifes! haunted house! JYP AND 6IX9INE!
a very crack and dumb one shot i made.
âMANE IF YALL DONT SHUT THE FUCK UP!â taehyun shouted as they were walking up to the line since everyone began to nag.
"this is why i wanted to go trick or treating instead." beomgyu pouted and folded his arms as he and the rest of the group waited in line to go inside of the haunted house.
well it was more like a haunted barn, where they would all get on a hayride and be driven throughout the barn and be spooked supposedly. "trick or treating?? how old are you again?" kai mocked him,
"no offense but i'm starting to think you were right when you said beomgyu was still mentally 9 years old because.. this is starting to get worrying. what 19 year old is trying go trick or treating?" yeonjun added in agreement, while taehyun shot him a dirty look for throwing shade at his best friend.
beomgyuâs first instinct was to scoot closer to (y/n), but he then fired off a clapback of his own. "the only thing that's worrying is that wig you're wearing, who the fuck are you even supposed to be? lord farquad on crack?" gyu fired back at yeonjun, who was now touching the short black bob on top of his head.
soobin couldn't help but laugh, even though it was his own boyfr- bestfriend getting flamed and soon, everybody else in the group let out laughter at gyuâs clapback. even taehyun, who couldn't stand beomgyu, was practically crying laughing at what was said.
"actually, i'm supposed to be dora," yeonjun replied, gesturing to his pink t shirt and bright orange jeans. "and soobin is.. well diego." he pulled soobin closer to him after saying that and kissed his forehead, before ruffling his blueberry curls a little.
"wait.. ain't dora and diego supposed to be cousins?" taehyun asked, his mouth curling in disgust, "i don't think that's positive..." kai added.
âcousin lovers.â (y/n) said making yeonjun smack their arm.
it was a wonder how they didn't annoy the others waiting in line for their ride, since they would fight every second. meanwhile as the group turn drew closer and closer, beomgyu found himself regretting agreeing to come here.
it was weird.. he loved horror movies, but he despised haunted houses because even though both were fake events, being in a haunted house was just so up close and personal you know?
if it wasn't for it being (y/n)'s birthday (lets just pretend ur birthday was on halloween.) beomgyu wouldn't have came, and he would have probably just stayed at home and took pictures of his costume for instagram before going over to hyunjinâs to watch scary movies.
(y/n) noticed that beomgyu looked uncomfortable amongst all of the roasts and jokes flying amongst the group and they decided to ask what was wrong.
"gyu, why do you look so sad? being sad is my job," (y/n) asked as the group continued to move up in the line. "i'm not sad," beomgyu answered. "i'm just nervous, i don't like haunted houses.. i had a really bad panic attack the last time i went to one, and i don't wanna have one and ruin your birthday or anything.. i probably should have just stayed my ass home."
"nah, you not going to ruin my birthday, you're my friend and i care about you... it won't be that scary, it's literally a haunted barn. you know what barns have? cows and chickens. now who's scared of cows and chickens? nobody. except blades of grass."
the little pep talk made gyu feel slightly calmer. "thanks," he replied, fumbling with the thick leather choker around his neck. "your costume is really cute by the way. i like the face paint."
"thanks, it was kaiâs idea actually," they responded with a chipper edge to their voice. (y/n)' costume consisted of a sweatshirt and sweatpants with a skeleton printed on the front, and his face was made up to look like a skull.
after beomgyu was calm, he found himself overhearing a conversation between hueningkai, taehyun, and his knives.
"no tae, you can't bring your knives in here with you," hyuka shook his head as taehyun kept asking if he could run back to the car real quick and grab his knives "cmon kai, just in case a demon wanna try some shit"
"well.. can i get my ouija board?" tyun asked, his lips twisting into a devious smile. "i just wanna talk to the demons, it's halloween, and if it's any day i should be allowed to do this, it's today."
"ain't there no demons.. this is a barn. you wanna talk to demonic horses and shit?" yeonjun pokes in the conversation and raised an eyebrow.
"yes? of course i do, the fuck do you think i am?" taehyun whined, pointing to the devil horns on top of his head as the group finally made it to the front of the line and were waiting for the tractor to come back so that they could get on the hayride.
finally, after they all stood around and handed in their tickets to the clerk in front of the line, their tractor was ready, pulling along the hay covered cart as it came to a stop in front of the barn entrance, waiting for the group to board it.
"wait, hay? y'all ain't say there was going to be hay..." soobin complained, his skin already itching just by looking at all that hay. "y'all do know i'm allergic to hay right?"
"bitchhh, we been said it was a hayride involved," hueningkai snapped, "what you done caught the (y/n) disease where you forget everything every minutes or what?"
"aye i don't forget everything, i just be high," (y/n) cut in as they handed in their tickets to the clerk. "and i'm allergic to hay!" soobin cried out, scratching his forearm.
soobin actually is allergic to hay, but it wasn't something severe, he just got irritated by it and it caused his skin to rash up, not like his skin didn't already look as if it was full of rashes.
(that not true btw)
"oh well," hueningkai replied in a deadpan tone, shrugging. "guess you'll just die then."
after they've all handed in their tickets, everyone began to board the hay filled cart, with everyone obviously choosing to be closest to their besties.
when they got onto the cart. soobin was snuggled up to yeonjun, playing with his diego the explore backpack trying to ignore the itchy feeling the hay gave him.taehyun was resting his head on (y/n)âs shoulder, whining about his knifes, beomgyu was clinging onto kai for dear life, because he was still scared after all.
"i better not hear none of y'all screaming like no pussies after we get in here," yeonjun started after the tractor began to start up and drive them into the dark, cool barn. "how y'all gon be scared of demons when i'm taehyun a whole demon. y'all scared of him now?"
"actually, yes, i'm scared of him just a little bit," beomgyu answered, his tone groggy.
"considering he tried to kill me on multiple occasions and almost succeeded, yes yeonjun, i'm scared of taehyun and he make me fear for my life." soobin added on, slightly flinching at just saying the word taehyun.
"that was before i became positive," taehyun suddenly flashed soobin and beomgyu a toothy smile, "just like i'm positive that none of these demons or zombies or whatever the fuck is in this barn is gon' do shit to us."
"tae if you don't shut your ass up, thereâs no demons in here, nor is there any zombies, they are paid actors. you wish you was in a horror movie so bad," hueningkai cut in, once again ruining tyunâs fun.
as of right now, nothing scary was going on. just the typical music playing throughout the barn, random screams, and plastic skeletons appearing out of nowhere. shit that made little kids be scared of, but anyone else wouldn't be phased. not even beomgyu was phased by what was going on, and he was the main one who was scared to come along.
but then.. things started to get more spooky. the people who were sitting on the edge would start to get grabbed and poked without warning, and people would come up on side of the cart out of nowhere and scream or otherwise bring attention to themselves, which would catch them off guard obviously, but shit like that was to be expected at a haunted house.. or in this case a haunted barn.
but soon though, things began to get downright creepy.
as they were sitting in the cart, slightly startled and caught off guard by the jumpscares, but not too shaken up, not even beomgyu was that scared, as he made sure to sit in the middle of the cart to avoid being randomly grabbed or touched by these strangers in costume, and it was just amusing to people like taehyun or (y/n), they weren't prepared for what started to happen next.
soon the music that sounded as if it was from a demonic nursery cut out mid note, and it was replaced by an old, gravely sounding voice that began to sing happy birthday very terribly and off key.
and they thought this was creepy, considering it was gus' birthday, but they considered it was a coincidence. "damn (n/n), they singing happy birthday to you, that's wild," yeonjun noticed, laughing at the 'coincidence'.
"see, i told y'all theyâre really a skeleton, how else would they know that we're here for their birthday, hmm?" beomgyu added matter of factly causing the others to let out laughter.
so even though it was somewhat unsettling, it didn't become horrifying until the voice replaced "happy birthday to you," with "happy birthday (y/n)."
the place then became a chorus of "did yall hear that shit?" and "yeo what the fuck?!" after they noticed that, with (y/n) in particular being especially shook that there seemed to be a demon singing specifically to them, and their eyes went wide as the voice continued to serenade them, albeit poorly.
"see, this ain't it no more." soobin announced and hueningkai nodded in agreement. "h-how do they know it's (n/n)' birthday? much less who (y/n) is?" beomgyu asked as he held onto (y/n) even tighter than he was before. "i'm scared now."
"that's what we all want to know," yeonjun answered before reaching up to adjust his wig, before feeling nothing but his real hair tied back. he knew his wig didn't fall off or get snatched off, he had it secured with bobby pins, because it was one of his mother's wigs and he didn't want to lose it, but it had just completely disappeared.
"uh...my wig is gone," yeonjun announced and soobin just nodded. "same."
"no i mean it's for real gone... my dora or lord farquaad or whatever the fuck wig i was wearing earlier just.. disappeared into thin air." yeonjun continued to explain as he continued to search the surrounding area for it, just in case it fell out of his head but it was actually gone.
"see, i told y'all asses there were demons in here, but y'all didnât wanna listen now y'all getting your shit taken, and demons are singing happy birthday to (y/n) and shit, and now y'all shocked," taehyun added with a huff.
"tyun, ain't no demons in here. if there were demons in here, they would do a lot worse than steal hats and wigs and sing happy birthday, believe that. they'd be torturing us psychologically, and- wait, where the fuck is my sheep hat?" hueningkai touched the top of his head, where his costume top was missing from, and now he was heated.
"yeah, we gotta get outta here."
more shit like that continued to happen with the voice continuing to reference them by name, and reference stuff that only people that know them would know, like soobin almost running someone over once, or yeonjunâs furry suit,and then, near the end of the ride, it all came together in the worst possible way.
a single echoing voice with a thick new york accent screaming "SCUUUUM GANGGGG!" followed by a laugh in the distance that sounded a lot like jypâs laugh.
and in that moment, all of them literally hopped off of the cart and ran towards the exit.

Maddie's Quarantine Reviews: Eaten Alive (1976)
The Plot
In a swamp, deep in rural Texas, lies the Starlight Hotel. Don't let the name fool you. If you saw this building you'd be hella surprised it's even standing. But not only does it come with free rats, no, this hotel also comes with a crocodile :D The owner, Judd, who is probably bitter about his ugly ass hair, uses it to get rid of the people he kills. Oh, did I forget to mention that? Not only does he run a hotel that would get minus ten stars on Trivago, he's also a homicidal maniac.
Tonight, we shall witness how Mr Judd deals with a number of guests: Clara, a runaway prostitute from town; Faye and Roy, a married couple (the latter being slightly deranged!), their daughter Angie and her dog Snoopy; Harvey Wood and his daughter Libby, who are searching for Libby's lost sister; and Buck and Lynette, a young couple that's only there to fuck.
The Characters
The first character we meet is Clara. Clara is a prostitute, but she hates kinky customers and gets thrown out. A colleague gives her some money and advises her to go to the Starlight, blissfully unaware of the homicidal maniac mentioned earlier. Clara is a... pretty interesting character. She doesn't get much screentime, but she feels appropiate to introduce the plot.
Next up are Faye and Roy. They were great. I mean, Roy was played by William Finley, so I can't really say much else, but...the dynamic was really interesting to watch. For the record, Roy is a bit weird. He barks, he mumbles nonsense, he randomly yells, but the thing is, even though he's really damn strange he's still trying to be there for his family. The same goes for Faye. She pulls Angie out of danger without hesitation and she tries her best to fight Judd and she's really trying to be there for her daughter. I'm a bit sad that Roy got little screentime, he was a damn interesting character and I would've loved to see him more. Also, I dig William Finley's look.
Then we've got their daughter, Angie. Angie spends most of this movie screaming and I can't blame her the slightest bit, because if you, a six year old girl, witnessed multiple murders by scythe and crocodile and the death of your dog, lost a parent, nearly got eaten twice and hid from someone who wants to kill you in a cellar full of rats within one night, you'd need a lot of expensive therapy afterwards. Poor kid ;-;
Next up we have Harvey and Libby Wood looking for their lost sister. Great acting here. While Harvey is bitter and choleric about the loss of his daughter Libby is very calm and sad. She's kind of his voice of reason when he argues with people and she's pretty smart. Also, without spoiling too much, she fulfills the Final Girl Trope.
Then there's Buck. Buck just wants to have fun. Also, Buck is played by Robert Englund, who would go on playing the Phantom of the Opera in that weird Eighties gore version of it. In summary, we have two Phantoms in this movie (Because guess who starred in Phantom of the Paradise? That's right, William Finley!) Buck is a fuckboy, but he's not an asshole, since he immediately tries to help Angie when he hears her. The scene with Buck and Lynette in their hotel room was honest to God fucking uncomfortable to watch, but hey, you can't have everything.
We also have Lynette, who's literally the only smart person here because she nopes the fuck outta the hotel as soon as she realizes something's wrong. O-okay, as soon as she sees Judd kill someone. The thought counts.
Last but not least we have Judd, who wins the prize of ugliest serial killer hair. Seriously, it looks like a wig. Why is his hair so ugly??? Other than that, I loved the lighting when he chased his victims, because his teeth were illuminated, and that was fucking cool and made him look croccy. Apart from that, he's probably the most unlikeable horror movie killer because h e ' s s o d i s g u s t a n. He's so g r o s s.
My thoughts
Uhmmm... screaming. A lot. Of screaming. Not that I blame anyone, I'd be wrecking my vocal chords too, but... screaming.
Other than that the movie is great. The first murder hits more or less unexpected, and after that you keep praying and praying for every single character to survive. Won't work out, but hope dies last.
The acting is great in this movie. You pity Clara. You feel deeply uncomfortable around Judd. You notice how deranged Roy is and how much the family still tries to be there for Angie. Speaking of Angie, Kyle Richards did a phenomenal job playing her. You could really feel her shock and trauma.
There is something absolutely umhinged about this movie and it's nothing for everyone. The fog and red lights make everything quite eerie, and you're really ready for something to appear all the time. Everything and everyone radiates madness and danger. It's like a fever dream.
All in all, I can say, if you've got strong nerves, like William Finley and don't mind a little titty, watch Eaten Alive. Watch it.

SVT (Vocal and Performance Team):
S/O fangirling over Monsta X or Got7
Jeonghan
You two were on his bed, it was late evening and you just finished dinner half an hour ago. Now you were on your phone and playing the new Monsta X song for the hundreth time. Jeonghan was paying attention to the tv but bobbed his head in the beat of the song. âItâs actually a good songâ, he said eventually and looked at you when you whimpered or waved your hand for air. He wouldnât mind that you werenât paying much attention to him, he loved to see you happy. Still, heâd lay his head on your shoulder and watch it together with you.
Joshua
âJoshuaaa! Heâs so talented! Look at that dance break, holy-â, heâd fall on the couch next to you and watch the video as eager as you. He would probably donât be that talkative while watching as you but there would be a lots of âOhhhâ and proud head-shakes from him. When the videoâs done, he would giggle at your cute face, that still had that happy, excited expression on it. âOkay, one more time!â âYayyy!â, youâd kiss him on his cheek and cuddle against you.
Woozi
Jihoon would be on his laptop while you had your head laid on his shoulder and watched the comeback stage performance of âShine Foreverâ. Every two seconds youâd whine and sing along here and there. âAhh I.M. Shownu, yesssssssssâ, sometimes you just repeat the beat of the song. Jihoon wouldnât mind if you kept fangirling over them, it wasnât annoying and he was happy when you were happy. âTheir vocals are no joke, hm?â, you asked and got a âHmâ as in âYesâ back. âAnd their visuals make me question if there even are people that can at least be compared to their beauty? I mean look at them, every man looks like a trashbag next to them!â, now he looked up. âWow, thank you for hanging out with a trashbag thenâ, he grumbled which made you crack up. âI mean I would hang out with Jooheon but I guess we donât get what we want?â, you giggle and after he sighed and was ready to leave the bed, you quickly hugged him like a koala. âYou know Iâm jokinnnng, I have the cutest trashbag here that ever existed!â, he tried so hard not to laugh but failed and got back on the bed.
DK
You were at home, you on the couch and he in the kitchen and preparing a snack. The new music video of Got7 just came out and all you were doing for the last twenty minutes was streaming it and jumping around because of the video. He quietly sat next to you and saw that you only had eyes for them so he would make remarks to make you see him. âWoah, I can dance like that too.â âI mean itâs not even that high, have you heard my angelic voice?â, and so on. You would giggle at his cute comments and after the video was done, you kissed him on the cheek and cuddled against his chest. âI know I know, sorry that Iâm all over them but...the comeback is so strong?â, he giggled at your puppy eyes and you ended up watching the video all day.
Seungkwan
You groan loud, desperate after seeing the âStuckâ music video again. âSeungkwannnnâ âYes? You need something?â âThe only thing I need now is holy water becauseâ, you groan again and shove the phone in his face. âThat choreo! The high notes! The rap! How?â, you whine around which makes Seungkwan roll his eyes amused. He watches with you. âKihyun literally is the most beautiful man I have ever laid my eyes on, heâs too perfect!â âHey...yesterday you said that I am the most beautiful man you had ever laid your eyes onâ, he pouted and crossed his arms so you look up at him and giggle. You lay the phone away and wrap your hands around his shoulders and lean against him. âSorry, baby, that was of course true.â âThank you.â âBut Kihyun is second place!â, he gasped dramatically but then laughed. âWell, at least heâs behind me, thatâs all that I wanted to hear.â
Jun
You guys would be in the living room together just going through some channels trying to find something that seemed interesting to the both of you, which would be a much harder task than you'd think. After about half an hour you would just sigh theatrically which would make him grin at you. "You're so dramatic, let's just watch some music show or something!", he'd say which would make you pout slightly but nod. You just turned on some chart show and then finally cuddled into Jun who basically was waiting for this the whole time. You guys would lazily hum to the songs you'd know and just make some funny remarks and give compliments to the artists. After a while the song 'Lullaby' by Got7 would appear on the screen which would make you sit up abruptly again, much to his displeasure. He would let out a small whine due to your sudden absence but you wouldn't even hear him, you would be too caught up by the music video. Whenever Yugyeom would appear on the screen you would just smile really brightly and let comments out like 'Ah his voice is so nice!' or 'He dances so well, wow'. You'd pretty much have heart eyes at this point. Jun would just pout and look at you while you'd be gushing over Yugyeom. After the mv would be over you'd try to cuddle back into Jun and give him all of your attention again but he'd cross his arms over his chest so you couldn't cuddle him. "Baby, can you open your arms?", you'd ask him with a smile on your face but he would just shake his head like a small child which would make you giggle softly. "Whyyyy?" "Go cuddle Yugyeom...", he'd whisper which would make you laugh and shake your head. "No! I wanna cuddle you baby! Don't be jealous.." "but you were literally fangirling over him! Do you act this way when I'm on screen?" "No, when you're on screen I completely lose it! Ah, especially when you look into the camera like you always do... that doesn't compare to Yugyeom at all", you'd say while dramatically grabbing onto your chest where your heart would be which would make him laugh now. "Ah you really are dramatic, y/n-ah, but okay... i'll accept this.", he'd say with a smile on his face which would make you smile brightly at him. "You're so handsome baby... and your performances, damn. And when you go through your hair with your hand.." "Stooooooop", he'd blush slightly after you'd cover him with compliments, you both would end up in each others arms and just giggle, completely forgetting the music show on TV.
Hoshi
Soonyoung and you would be laying in bed both of you having your headphones in while watching some videos on your phones. Your head would be on his chest and your legs would be intertwined with his, so even though you weren't really doing anything together, you'd still be enjoying each others presences. He would be watching some interviews or the latest dance practice video to see how he could improve even more while you'd simply watch some variety shows. After a while you'd end up watching Monsta x-ray, like always, and you'd just laugh your ass off while watching them doing some weird things. Soon Soonyoung would be rather confused about why you were laughing so hard, he loved seeing you laugh but he definitely wouldn't be used to you laughing this much. He would be curious to see what made you laugh and just look at your phone, after he'd realize what you were watching he'd grin brightly. You'd stop the video and look at him with a smile. "Jooheon is so incredibly funny, I fully understand why you guys are friends, and he's also so cute and nice...", you'd simply say with literal heart eyes which would make him laugh. "I know right? Even in real life! He's so cool and funny! I have so much fun with him, and their music is so good!" "Agreed! Shoot out was so good! Jooheon is such a good rapper, I always get goosebumps", you'd say which would make him nod enthusiastically. "I know right!!! Also their concerts are so nice! They have so much stage presence!", he'd say excitedly which would make you laugh. You'd both take off your headphones and just talk about Monsta X. You guys would be literally fangirling together which would make the whole scene look hilarious. You may be a Monbebe, but Soonyoung is the ultimate monbebe out there so you'd both have lots of fun talking about all of them. "I thought I'm the fangirl here, turns out you're even more of a fangirl than I am" (He might even take you with him when he goes out with them so you'd see how funny they were even in real life)
The8
"Not gonna lie, Shoot out was such a good comeback, have you seen Shownu? And Kihyun? Also I.M's rap? Also the dance? Wow. That's art right there!", you just couldn't help it but talk about the MV the whole day ling which would make Minghao just smile fondly at you. He wouldn't be the type to really get jealous, he'd rather be caught up by the passion in your eyes when you would be talking about them and their music in general. He would find it incredibly cute how you'd stumble over your words while trying to describe just how much you loved their new comeback and album. He would have probably been the one that had already gotten you the album since he'd have a lot of connections. He'd just know how passionate you'd be about Monsta X and he'd love to support you. He would give you the album after he heard you talking about how much you'd want it. "Baby... you're so good to me!", you'd fondly say while hugging him tightly. "You really like them... and you're really passionate about them so, why not support you?", he would be so supportive oh my god. He would also make sure you'd be able to go to their concerts and get some of their merch. "They're really your favorite band, huh?", he'd ask with a bright smile on his face which would make you giggle slightly. "They're second place... i love seventeen more...", you'd state while looking at him fondly. "Ah, is that so?", he'd ask teasingly. "Definitely... also if you didn't notice, you're my favorite!" "I sure hope I am!" "... Jun's really close to becoming number one tho, just so you know" "I'll take your album back" "I'm just joking baby!!!!", you both would just laugh together and support each other in every way possible.
Dino
"Jackson is really fit...", you'd randomly say while being too caught up in Got7's mv 'Hard Carry'. Chan would be sitting next to you on the couch watching the MV with you. "I mean... he's okay" "And his smile is really handsome!" "I mean-" "and he dances really well!", he'd look at you slightly offended but you wouldn't really notice until the mv would have ended. After seeing his expression you'd probably start laughing since he'd just look too cute to handle. "Why are you so offended, baby?" "You're basically fangirling over him!" "No I'm not!", he'd proceed to look at you with an expression that would say 'yeah, right' which would make you sigh slightly. "Okay.. maybe I'm fangirling slightly!" " 'Slightly', you're basically drooling! That's not good! You should be drooling over me!", he'd say with big eyes which would make you giggle softly at his actions, in his head he probably seemed like a cool boyfriend but in your eyes he just seemed like a lost puppy. "I'm not drooling over him, baby... but I can't deny that he looks really, really good!", you'd tease him which would make Chan glare at you. "I look better!" "Hmm... well...", he'd glare even more and that's when it would start. That boy, oh my god. He would literally look for his best pictures and compare them to Jacksons, he also would show you his best stages and dances which would just make you laugh and tease him even more. "You're so cute, Channie", you'd simply say after he'd give you the 56th argument on why he was better than Jackson. You would sit on his lap and hug him tightly which would make him shut up for a second. "I'm just joking baby.. you know I actually think that you're much better than him, right?" "... obviously, look at me!", you'd just laugh at his offended expression and kiss him slightly which would finally make him smile again. "But you gotta admit that he does actually look good.", he would roll his eyes with a smile still on his face, but after a while he'd give in and nod. "I mean... he doesn't look bad, I guess.." "but you're more handsome" "Thank you, that was obvious", you'd both just continue joking about it and just have a good time.
