#nunsongi

[ceiling-karasu]

After some thought, I’m keeping the name Nunsong/Nunsongi. Probably giving it to the scientist squirrel though.

Feels like a name I could write and look at for another 100,000 words if the AU goes that far. And I haven’t seen it anywhere else yet.

Most likely she was born on a snowy day, and was thus given the name.

Rating: Mature

Status: Completed

Chapters: 1/1 (24059 words)

Tags: Magic AU, Hybrid AU

Summary:

Fate's been unkind to Hoseok from the start - he's completely non-magical in a world where everyone else seems to be, including his two best friends. So, really, it shouldn't have been that much of a surprise that Hoseok ends up the only one of the trio that's infected by a dangerous fire demon that's trying to kill him from the inside out.

Luckily, he gets sent to stay in a snow-filled landscape with a certain magic user called Yoongi to save him.

Maybe, just maybe, fate is finally on Hoseok's side.

(Alternatively, Hoseok has to live in Yoongi's Canadian cabin that he shares with the most unusual of friends and Hoseok ends up never wanting to leave.)

The taste of coffee  [ A | MH ]

pairing: Minhyuk X Reader (Gender neutral)

word count: 2.9k

summary: One morning Minhyuk wakes up to find his world being completely turned upside down by no other than you.

trigger warning: Mature themes! Violence! Abuse! Mentions of drugs, alcohol and sex.

cover: Made by me. Picture by Naver Dispatch.

song recommendation: Writing's on the wall - Sam Smith

“Lee Minhyuk, better known to the general public as the Blue House prince, is caught up in yet another scandal.” Minhyuk's fist clenched around the plastic bottle, causing the water to splash everywhere as he looked at the pretty face of the news anchor who was staring straight into the camera with a slight smile plastered on her face. Was she even aware that she was ruining his f*cking life right now? Or did she even care?

He would bet his life that she didn’t. She only saw her chance of making headlines, not caring about whose life she’d have to ruin in order to gain fame. Just like all those damn reporters that weren’t any better than cockroaches.

“After being scammed into investing money in a slush fund only three months ago, it seems like the son of South Korean president Lee Chunghee hasn’t learned his lesson.” Minhyuk’s heart sunk in his chest as he heard her mentioning his father's name. This time he wouldn’t only send him off into exile for making a mistake. He’d f*cking kill him. Or at least beat him half to death.

“We’ll take a look at the picture that has been leaked this morning after a short commercial break. Please be aware that this picture might be disturbing for some of our audience and that viewer discretion is advised. See you in five and remember to not change the channel. This has been Kim Guenhye for…”

The TV suddenly turned black and Minhyuk didn’t need to look over his shoulder to see who switched it off.

“You should stop watching that crap.” Jooheon’s voice was laced with understanding as he spoke in a soft tone, causing Minhyuk to tear up. Jooheon has always been the only one to really show him any empathy or kindness. “Everything is going to be alright. I bet your father will…”

“Kill me. He will kill me Jooheon. And you know it.” Minhyuk cleared his throat as he realized how weak and defeated he sounded “How long have you been my bodyguard, hm? Five years? Maybe even six?” Minhyuk looked at Jooheon who was watching him with a concerned look on his face. “You know what he’s capable of. Hell, he'd even sent me off to Busan just so he wouldn’t have to explain all the bruises on my face after beating me up for that slush fund b*llshit Kihyun got me into.” Minhyuk looked down at the water bottle in his hand. It was almost empty by now. “Have you looked for Y/N like I told you to?”

“Yes.” Jooheon sat down next to Minhyuk on the couch, avoiding his eyes as he looked at the TV that had finally fallen silent after they’d turned it on about two hours ago when this mess had started. “But Y/N is nowhere to be found. I think that maybe-”

“Don’t even think about saying those words.” Minhyuk could feel anger bubbling up inside of him as he realized what Jooheon was implying. “Y/N would never do that to me. Never.” He glanced towards the local newspaper that was lying on the coffee table while staring at the picture on the front page.

It was a picture of him, lying naked in bed on his stomach, hugging his pillow like he usually did. Even though his face was only half exposed, he was still clearly recognizable. His eyes were closed and the angle from which the picture was taken made him look a lot younger than he actually was. His shoulders and his back where on full display while his butt had been covered by a blanket even though he never slept under one in the hot and humid midsummer nights of Busan. There were some scratch marks on his back and some of his clothes were scattered on the floor right next to the bed, covering up the cheap carpet of the motel he’d called his home ever since his father had sent him away three months ago.

But that intimate half-naked picture of him sleeping in his bed wasn’t what the media was running wild about. It was what was on the nightstand that would ruin his life forever.

Beside his matte black mobile phone with his initials engraved in white there were two ripped open condom packages next to an almost empty glass of scotch. But drinking and having a sex life wasn’t a crime.

Having cocaine sitting on your bedside table was.

Or at least that’s what people would think it was if they’d see the three neatly scraped lines, the white powder clearly visible against the dark wood of the nightstand. And to top it all off, his black credit card was lying right next to them with a little bit of the powder still stuck to the edge.

Even though Minhyuk had never done drugs in his entire life.

Jooheon had tasted it and it had turned out to be nothing more than harmless baking powder, but the damage had already been done and even if he’d strongly deny it and even if the police would state that he didn’t commit a crime because he’d never been in the possession of drugs in the first place, nobody would believe him.

They’d all think that his powerful father bribed somebody to cover it all up. So his reputation was ruined either way.

Minhyuk kept looking at the pictures while he suddenly felt sick to his stomach.

He knew that only you could have taken those pictures. He knew it because otherwise you’d be in those pictures with him, sleeping right next to him with your legs intertwined with his and your cheek resting on his shoulder.

That’s how the two of you had slept together in one bed ever since you’d started dating about two months ago.

He’d fallen head over heels for you when he’d first met you in this hell of a place. When he’d first arrived in Busan he’d been overwhelmed by it all. His cold bastard of a father had not only practically exiled him from Seoul but also frozen any of Minhyuk's assets, turning him from one of the richest twenty-somethings of the world to someone without even a penny to his name. The only things his father had allowed him to take had been a suitcase of clothes, his Bentley and Jooheon, who had been by his side for the past couple of years.

Upon arrival he had only been able to afford a room in a stingy back-alley motel that had tacky orange and red neon lights on the front and that smelled like a mixture of vomit, piss and the unique stench of broken dreams and failure. But the two of them hadn’t been able to afford anything else because his father had also cut down Jooheon’s wage by a significant amount as punishment for allowing Minhyuk to get involved with Kihyun in the first place.

They had been able to survive like this for two weeks with Jooheon getting a job as a barkeeper nearby to try and support the both of them while Minhyuk had been forced to basically be locked down in that damn motel room, unable to get himself a job because people would recognize him once he mentioned his name.

So when he’d left his motel room that Saturday morning he had been broke, hungry and absolutely angry because of the bleakness of it all.

And that’s when he had met you.

A few blocks away from his motel was a Starbucks which he purposely included in his everyday jogging route just so he could take a whiff at the smell of freshly ground coffee beans that was always lingering in the air.

He’d been so distracted by his grumbling stomach and the amazing smell that he hadn’t noticed the puppy that had been running around your feet as you were trying your best to cross the busy street with a huge cup of Starbucks coffee and the leash in hand. He had only realized his mistake as he’d jogged past you, causing the puppy to run wild in anticipation of Minhyuk wanting to play tag with him while you had cussed Minhyuk out loud enough for him to hear.

As the puppy ran off after him it ripped the leash out of your grip, setting itself free. The sudden jolt sent your cup of coffee flying, spilling its contents all over you, the street, the puppy and even partially on him.

Fortunately it had been a cup of iced americano so none of you had been severely burned. But your white shirt and especially the puppy's light fur had been covered in the dark brown liquid, leaving dark stains all over.

You’d given him hell for causing you so much trouble while the two of you had chased after the puppy trying to get a hold of it. It had proven to be rather difficult because the puppy had been so excited, thinking of it as a game and was barking happily while running away.

It had taken the two of you ages to finally get a hold of the leash the puppy dragged along but once you did, you swept the puppy up into your arms, scolding him with the softest and most caring voice while cuddling the little coffee drenched ball of fur.

Afterwards the two of you stood on the side of the road, out of breath and covered in sweat before looking at each other. There had been an intense and awkward silence between the two of you, but then you kicked your head back in a sudden outburst of the most honest laughter he’d ever heard.

And that was the moment when he’d fallen in love with you.

After that morning he’d been obsessed with you, jogging by that particular Starbucks multiple times a day in the hope of getting a glimpse of that beautiful smile you’d flashed him when you’d said goodbye to him that day.

And after a week of disappointment for every time you hadn’t been there, you had suddenly showed up in front of the Starbucks, with the puppy sitting at your feet and two coffees in hand.

You’d gone to the beach with him, talking to him while letting the puppy run around freely on the empty early morning shore.

You’d told him that you’d moved to Busan a little over two years ago and that you were an elementary school teacher for Korean and music. You’d told him all about Nunsongi, your beautiful white husky pup, with the most captivating dark blue eyes. You’d talked about your obsession with coffee and your passion for music and the fine arts.

And after the two of you had talked for hours you’d suddenly kissed him by the shore, making his heart race in his chest as he’d pulled you close. You’d tasted like the sun and a little bit of salt mixed with the bittersweet taste of coffee.

After that day the two of you had been practically inseparable, spending as much time with each other as you possibly could. While you were at work he’d taken care of Nunsongi before picking you up once school ended.

You’d shown him around Busan every chance you got, introducing him to the best seafood restaurants and amazing street food trucks while sharing your passion for the fine arts through trips to the museum or listening to busking performances or free open air concerts.

And after spending the whole day together, you’d often stayed over at Minhyuk's motel room, sneaking in Nunsongi through the backdoor.

You’d cuddled up in bed with him, kissing him every chance you got while the two of you had either talked for hours or just layed there in the dimly lit room, looking at each other without saying a word until both of you’d fallen asleep.

He’d let you in on all his deepest thoughts and secrets.

He’d let you look past the mask he wore for the general public.

He’d let himself get completely lost in you.

He’d trusted you.

He’d loved you.

And you’d lied to him. You’d even gone as far as screwing him over and betraying his trust in the worst way possible, exposing him to the media and dooming him to lead the life of a social outcast for the rest of his days.

Because no matter how much he wanted to trick himself into believing you’d nothing to do with this, the rational part of him knew that it could have only been you. You had been the one he’d trusted the most, letting his guard down around you completely. And you’d used that against him while shattering his heart into a million little pieces.

He had loved you. And you had used him.

Minhyuk was snapped back to reality as he heard the door to his motel room being pushed open with such force that it hit the wall with a loud bang.

“You worthless piece of sh*t.” The voice of his father was laced with anger and hatred as he made his way over to Minhyuk, a belt in hand as he took huge steps forward, closing the little space between the door and the couch in no time. “You’re mother should have taken her with you when she crashed her car into that damn tree!”

Jooheon leaped forwards in an effort to protect him but Hyunwoo and Hoseok, who were part of his fathers loyal squad of bodyguards, held him back effortlessly.

His father's eyes were transfixed on Minhyuk as he raised his fist that was tightly gripping the belt.

“I told you to keep a low profile.” The leather of his father’s belt left a numbing pain as it hit Minhyuk’s cheek and he could feel the skin burst open due to the sheer force of the impact. “I told you not to ever disgrace me like that again. Who do you think you are ruining my reputation like that.” The belt hit him again and he had to put in great effort to stay conscious because the pain was starting to make him feel dizzy. He could taste his own blood on his tongue as his father kept on hitting him relentlessly.

But he knew better than to dodge any of them.

If he wanted to survive this he’d have to take all of this silently without screaming out or complaining. So he kept his mouth shut, taking every hit and insult his father threw at him before he finally stopped when he was unable to raise his fist again.

Minhyuk was lying on the ground, barely able to stay awake as the excruciating pain took over every aspect of his mind and body, almost drowning out the pain he felt in his chest while thinking of you.

“Turn on the TV you useless piece of trash.” Minhyuk didn’t know who of the three other men he was talking to and he didn’t really care. All he could focus on was the pain he felt while he tried to steady his breath in order to hold back the tears that were welling up in this eyes.

“After the recent scandal of Lee Minhyuk the public is starting to doubt whether or not his father Lee Chunghee is suitable to be president if he can’t even keep his own son out of trouble.” Minhyuk started to despise the voice of that useless news anchor that he’d forever associate with the darkest day in his entire life. “His opponents are already getting ready to step up if President Lee ends up laying down his office. Next in line would be Lee’s strongest opponent…”

“That damn hyena.” His father grabbed a fist full of Minhyuk’s hair, forcing him to open his eyes and look at the TV. “Look what you’ve done you…”

His father's words were nothing but incoherent mumbling as Minhyuk's world suddenly turned blank while looking at the screen.

There you were, standing right next to the next presidential candidate, looking into the camera with a stern expression on your face. He immediately noticed that you were oddly pale. Your eyes were missing their usual spark and your lips were tightly pressed shut into a thin line. Your hands were curled up into fists while you were holding on to Nunsongi’s leash hard enough that he could see your knuckles turning white.

There you were. In Seoul. And if he could trust the writing on the screen, you weren’t only standing right next to the next presidential candidate. You were also standing right next to your father.

Looking just as miserable and heartbroken as he felt.

He wanted to laugh at the cruelty of this whole situation but he couldn’t. He could only look at you, wondering if you were okay while he himself was lying on the floor, hurting all over and bleeding like crazy.

Wasn’t the heart a funny little traitor.

Because after all you’d done to him he still wanted to see you again. Even after you’d f*cked up his life like this, betraying his trust in the worst way possible, he still desperately wanted to see you again. Hold you in his arms again. Fall asleep right next to you again. Kiss you again.

Because he loved you.

You and the bittersweet taste of coffee that had always lingered on your lips, making him helplessly addicted to you.

When Takashi, son of the Shirogane Household and knight of the Garrison Royal Guard, went missing on a quest, everyone thought him dead. Everyone, that is, except his little brother, Keith. Losing his position as a knight in the Garrison Royal Guard in the process, he swore to find him and get him back, no matter what it took. He didn't expect that that would result in accidentally awakening an ancient lion goddess that's looking for her ‘paladin’ and striking a deal with her. But hey, when life gives you lemons…

OR The fantasy AU in which Keith is looking for his brother, Blue is looking for her paladin, and they just might be able to help each other out.

 I posted this on AO3 last night when I was half asleep and today I was traveling back home so I didn’t get to post the link here until now 

So this is my fic for the @voltronbang ! The art for this was done by @acequeenm and @mothable, two amazing people and talented artists! You can see said art here, here, here and here. 

I’m really excited for this fic, but I  decided to post the chapters once a week. The next few weeks are going to be a bit of a mess what with getting ready for school, being away, not having a solid wifi connection etc. so I won’t set a given date for now and instead wait to see how my schedule will play out to do so.

Feel free to drop a comment to tell me what you guys think about it, I can’t wait to read your opinions!

Honestly, the idea of a very large country in my AU that sells most of the world's oil is very tempting.

I have mentioned oil and gas a few times, which means it has to come from somewhere. And since it’s a finite resource, there has to be international issues. Like, if a country has oil, then why hasn’t the United States Alliance taken it over, if there aren’t constant conflicts over it? Is the Wolf Unit going after Flower Hill just a small part of a larger force that is responding to a collection of a favor?

I mean, Africa on the map shown is right there with one flag. The United States Alliance would be more focused on the country below them for oil, though, if there is a Venezuela equivalent in that yellow portion.

I could also give the Jindo Empire oil, but then, having the naval supremacy nation with a world wide assassination/spy web also be an oil tycoon makes it sound overpowered, perhaps, even if it would help explain the naval abilities outside of dangerous water currents. My OCs (Jinro and Hite) from there might be a little bit too laid back for coming from that type of country. Then again, they are just cooks and soju makers, not running the government.

On one hand, both are a little too easy, like it’s being lazy. On the other hand, I don't necessarily want to have international relations and conflicts take up too much of an AU focusing on Flower Hill and Geusmaegi.

That kind of thing could be kept for Nunsongi and Strategist to consider.

[ceiling-karasu]

Update on the Squirrel and Hedgehog AUs from March

Geumsaegi AU:

Plans for this are coming along nicely for the most part. I plan to have parts of the war spill into and affect other countries, so I might have to look into creating AU nations surrounding Flower Hill or on the other side of the ocean. Honestly, I might create a faction with Joo Ho Jo from the current AU, explained below. Or I might keep OCs to a minimum in this one.

I had somehow completely forgotten that even Commander Seungnyangi plotted against Dr. Huinjogjebi to steal his research and take over the army by attempting to manipulate Geumsaegi, so that actually changes a few things.

Absolutely going to be the funny guy here and find a way to force Geumsaegi and Mulmangcho to reluctantly work together for a few chapters, at least to survive some dangerous situations. Does not stop them from hating each other though, could be a nice dynamic.

Kidnapped Scientists AU

Nunsongi is definitely going to be the name of the military research scientist squirrel. But the name Uisa still means 'doctor,' so Uisa Darami can still be in use as a forced pen name on their publicized research. I see them as a relatively young scientist who was extremely good at their job and became famous for it in the foreign university. Their fame follows them when they graduate and return to Flower Hill, even though they try to keep it low key.

She tries her best to stay loyal, but over a period of time with no rescue in sight, allows herself to understand that she can further her research by complying with some demands, and not all of the tasks and research topics will harm Flower Hill directly. Maybe even rise in the ranks and sabotage the army.

Jilmunja is still the name of the weasel interrogator/warden/head guard. I know it is also the name of a minor character hedgehog in my current AU, but who says I can't reuse some names for vastly different characters?

Since the idea for the prisoners in this cell block is that they need to be kept alive, he is firm but knows how to wear them down slowly over a long period of time (months to years) into compliance, using a system of rewards (research material, extra food, allowed to see outside, online schooling) and punishments (threats to other prisoners, isolation, etc.). Also very protective of them, and more of an affably evil vibe.

His idea is that eventually, overall, he will convince all the prisoners to work for the Weasel Army, allowing for them to concede ideas slowly. He has time. Although he also deals with other prisoners in different cell blocks, where information is needed quickly. He can be fast and far more brutal, there.

The civilian hostages are mainly used to keep the important prisoners in line, but they can still be used by the Weasel Army. The online school programs from foreign universities he permits are used as a compliance tool with the idea that the students might use what they learn for the Weasel Army someday.

The young adult hedgehog on his first day of conscription (assuming 17/18 years old) who opened a window at the wrong time and was abducted alongside the older hedgehog will be named Wonsi (Farsighted). The Weasel Army recognizes that he is from a long line of excellent to legendary snipers, so he is a good 'acquisition.' No one knows that he is essentially legally blind and very colorblind, least of all Wonsi.

Wonsi is absolutely gung-ho about being a loyal Flower Hill soldier, and immediately assumes that he is going to be killed or should die to protect Flower Hill, but is confused about himself finding some joy in the online schooling system.

I'm still a little stuck since the vast majority of the characters in Squirrel and Hedgehog are just called by their rank and species name, if not just their species. Very few have given names unless it is of a big identifying feature that everyone can see (Nunsongi being born during a snowstorm instead of spring giving an out of season birth date unlike other squirrels, Aekku having one eye, Oegwipali having one ear). I would like to be creative, but I also know it would be more likely for the military strategist hedgehog to just be called Strategist Goseumdochi. I could call him Jeonlyagga (Strategist) or Him (strength, will) if I wanted to I guess.

I've recently begun seeing Strategist Goseumdochi as an older hedgehog. Where Nunsongi is young, he is older and established, with a long record of successes, which is why the Weasel Army wanted him. Fiercely loyal to Flower Hill with an iron will, but even he knows that eventually even he can be worn down over time to give some information or assistance, even if the weasels are not physically hurting him directly.

Hagsaengi, I've decided to split him into two separate characters, maybe young teenagers.

The squirrel students are named Minji (sharp intellect), and the other Injae (Talented and wise scholar). Both are extremely intelligent prodigies who happened to be in the same building Nunsongi was abducted in, so they are a bonus to the Weasel Army. I'm thinking on if I want them to be twins, or academic rivals from different families that the weasels and mice would try to pit against each other.

The twins idea could pull a bunch of scenes of the two finding out the other is alive, resulting in emotional plotlines where separating the two is a punishment to keep them in line. The rival idea could pull that they are pretending to hate each other in front of the Weasel Army, but they wouldn't even think to betray Flower Hill, and may be using the fighting to make plans to escape or sabotage behind the scenes. Rival families could also introduce a secret childhood friends plotline.

I'm still working on how many other hostages there are. I think I can easily name the duck Murori (no relation) and the rabbit Tokki, and have an array of other prisoners that are needed alive for a time to come in and out.

Everyone's kidnapping is done or orchestrated by a mouse with gold earrings named Geumbanji (Gold Rings), who is a a spy leading a special unit to help carry out abductions, who took the time to gain most of the victims' trust over a period of time before abducting them.

I just remembered the other day that Nanbaka exists, but the vibes are far different since the prisoners in that show actually want to be there. I probably won't be making Skippy's List jokes, though, since there is not much I could turn into a reasonable story with this or any of the AUs.

White Ermine AU:

The white ermine nurse's name is Nurse Eomin. She refuses to act flirty and sexy with the troops like the other nurses and female servants, but the Weasel Army and Wolf Unit soldiers think it is funny that the white one is so cold hearted and call her Yepa, which translates into 'Winter Princess' or 'Ice Queen' in Korean. Interesting enough, it is actually a Native American term that was taken up into Korean, but it could fit with what I have planned since they are foreign invaders coming to steal things.

Not sure if that is culturally insensitive, though, so I could use Seoli or Chadonyeo (slang for cold hearted yet intelligent girl from a big city) instead.

She might appear cold, but she is easily frightened at her situation deep within.

Ermines (also called stoats) are not native to Korea, but are native to Russia, China, and Japan, which can help hide the fact that she is actually from Flower Hill.

I saw in a recent post that there is a definite lack of crow OCs. I know I made a bunch of White-Naped Crane OCs since they live in the Korean demilitarized zone in real life, but it is not the same. It could be interesting to create a few crow characters for this AU. Maybe have one of them secretly be a Flower Hill duck.

Cage of Eden AU:

I am thinking of at least having two characters named Gasi (Thorn) and Baneul (Needle). A squirrel and a hedgehog who are great friends, and they joke about their names. Most of the characters in this AU are going to be named their occupations since they are active soldiers.

Going to have the Takashi Nishikiori inspired character as a White Naped-Crane though.

I don't think I can put any crow OCs in this one, since the ability to scout from the air would solve most plots before they began, and I really want to have fun with the Sturgeons and Dr. Huinjogjebi on this one.

Still going to mix canon characters and OCs from other stories into this one.

Other:

Joo Ho Jo was supposed to be a one off joke character in Chapter 20 of the Lily Bell in the Thorn Thicket AU. But honestly? A weasel who is part of a royal/upper class family, until they were deposed by the commoners a few generations ago, and is extremely angry about it and plans revenge, can make for some interesting or amazing plot ideas. Might as well work with the names Paola, Bolasaeg, Nogsaeg, and Holli as well at some point in the future, although drop the parody elements.

Jinro still just chilling like Ginko from Mushishi, except he's being hunted like Super Doctor K but for his cooking skills.

It turns out tufted ground squirrels are rumored to slaughter deer in localized folklore? So a hyena having one as a bodyguard could be fun.

I'd like to have an actual romance between a hedgehog and a wolf or hyena where the hedgehog is the dominant one in the relationship, but that might be a oneshot where the canine is accused of trafficking the hedgehog through Flower Hill, when the couple is genuinely there for innocent reasons.

Haven't worked on the Hyena, Nope, or Mistaken Identity AUs in a while. Otherwise doing some research on Nuke EMP resistant vehicles and if they can be mixed with a TIV modified truck as a tank, because honestly they look cool and can come in handy for some plot or story ideas.

Trying to sleep and just had an epiphany

I wanted Nurse Eomin to have a nickname given to them by the Weasel Unit that basically translates into ‘cold hearted’ or ‘Ice Queen,’ because unlike the other nurses, she does not flirt with the patients or superiors. At least until Geumsaegi comes around and she tires to pass on a message by pretending to flirt with him (no real romance in here either).

But I could not find a name I could connect with. There was Nunsongi, but I decided I vastly preferred using that name for the squirrel in the Kidnapped Scientists AU. Figured I might drop the idea.

But I just realized that the Weasel Unit would be more likely to use a Japanese name, not a Korean one, for something like that.

There’s about 70 Japanese names involving ice and snow with different meanings. I just need to figure out the connotations of each one, maybe? Find some old timey slang for Ice Queen/cold hearted?
