out of boredom/curiosity I read 60 eps of a webtoon. it was not good.
#orlbs#misclb#no interesting power shifts#tbh just felt really unfair and therefore kind of stupid for the li to have all these conditions/motivations and hire the mc for it#and like… not give any clear instructions whatsoever#it was clearly more atmosphere-motivated than character-motivated#and listen I can be compelled by a rancid atmosphere if it’s structurally sound yknow#or at least stupid *on purpose*#also ‘oh I’m starting to like him because he treats me so well’ no he doesn’t. stop lying.#also the author keeps using assault without actually addressing it#like even outside the main relationship#which is already pretty bad#but there isn’t really a difference between how the li treats mc and the MULTIPLE assaults#and then not actually addressing or resolving the emotional impacts#it sucks. it’s really bad actually. I should not have read 60 chapters of it#oh also the webtoon does a really irritating thing#where ALMOST every chapter has 4-6 of the previous chapter’s panels#but not always#so it’s easier to get into the habit of skipping the first few panels and then having to go back on the rare occasions it’s not a repeat#like the exact same panels the exact same dialogue#it’s padding. it’s not efficient. just cut it out tbh

The closest I can think of to a genderflipped version of dukat/kira and Narkik is Athos and Milady from the Three Musketeers novel, not the BBC or most of the movies.
Though in this case, they were married & Milady doesn't seem to have any real affection for Athos, even if she does Naraku style heinous stuff.
The hunt for villainess/hero ships continues…
i really did love dukat/kira tho! I’m excited to rewatch DS9 for them!! they really are unparalleled, in some ways. (Tho narkik, the constant killing each other and yearning and falling more into hatred… iconic, for all the manga’s flaws)
(Wu Huan/Gu Jun of the cdrama xianxia Ancient Love Poetry sort of come close to D/K tbh. While nothing actually happens with them either, there’s something between them at the beginnings of the show and then, they split ways, as Wu Huan becomes more ambitious and power hungry but by then, I am very fond of the snippets shown that I think their fondness for each other never completely goes away. I think Wu Huan is a final villain? It’s been a while but I remember loving her fate, as she progressed into villainy secretly.)
NarKik, hmm, the show went bad after s2, but Katherine/Stefan, I thought was great in The Vampire Diaries for two seasons, even tho Katherine herself barely appeared in s1, the mystery was great. It’s also a really good love square, but. Yeah. I get irritated at both IY&TVD, for different reasons, but for a time, the squares of both shows are genuinely compelling. Never finished TVD tho.
Athos/Milady… okay, so I really liked s1&2 of the BBC version! Because the love was there and lingered still. (And then s3 just kinda… squandered it.) It’s less shippy in the book because… while I think it is a good facet for the character of Milady to be heartless and to not care for Athos, making her a good villainess… yeah, there doesn’t appear to be much actual love there, and it’s a shame Athos was quick to drop her after… oh no… finding out she’s a criminal. So it’s kinda hard to ship them, because there didn’t seem to be much feelings on either side, and I want the turmoil of conflicting emotions. I do consider Milady a henchman tho, rather than the big bad, tho, since Richelieu runs the show.
(A ship kinda similar to them… probably Maru/Jaehee of the korean drama The Innocent Man/Nice Guys. Like Maru goes through a ton of shit for Jaehee before giving up on her, and then he’s consumed by rage a good portion of it too, but luckily it’s a triangle of yanderes! IDK if melodramas are your thing, tho, but I was super into that nonsense.
Maybe Super Sentai’s Carranger could count tho? If we’re going by minion/hero? Since Zonette starts falling in love with Kyosuke, the red ranger? Tho it’s a very silly version but still extremely charming. Stays one sided but it’s so cute!)
Hmm, I’m going to have to think of more examples, but possibly FL/ML of the webtoon Locker & Opener could count? Criminal FL and cop ML, and the fact that love doesn’t really redeem the FL but in fact the ML is greyer in morality than initially believed is… a delight. And they get a happy ending!

hi friend it’s clyde!
ahhhh ty yes i was doing a picrew and decided i liked it
honestly idk? maybe free food? but it’s a close tie
it’s from a webtoon called tower of god. my friend likes it but i didn’t have the patience to finish it. the gay ship isn’t canon to so that makes me sad
ahahahahaha yeah that happened today my mom was like “stand straight” “straighter” and i’m like no mom i can’t do that
yeahhhhh that’s a good idea. ahh i watched the magic school bus yesterday as well lol it brings back memories hehe
honestly tho i think the magic school bus educated me more than science class
ahhhhh yay! KEEFE FRIEND KEEFE FRIEND seriously that’s so cool
lol everyone besides my friends thinks i’m a harry potter nerd and a freak and i’m also super sarcastic to the teachers (but they think i’m funny) so that doesn’t help
yeah she does. oh cool, i’ve wondered what it would be like to have older siblings, then i remember how annoying i am and decide i’m better off as the older one
ohhhhh cool lizards are badass tbh
turtle good
ahahaha that sounds like an interesting experience. glad it’s done now tho
hm. tbh i like math a lot, but that’s mostly because everything else sucks. but this year were doing half math half a business course and business sucks so i’m just hating school in general
recess and lunch is good
yeahhhhh same tbh. i don’t like people already and the same fricking people over and over might just kill me (or i might kill them who knows /j)
ur questionnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn: what colour is ur hair? idk i’m curious u don’t have to answer if ur not comfortable. u already said it’s not ginger soooooo
welp now i hafta set up a new library card yay
adios amigo *salutes into the distance*
Hi hi! Sorry for the long response it’s thie ✨depression✨
free food is indeed a wonderful thing. My dads house never has anything to fucking eat it’s really irritating.
Oh I’ve heard tower of god is good. I can’t read regularly updating things cause I get swamped trying to catch up lol. Also make 👏 the 👏 gays 👏 canon 👏
Lmaooo bad posture is alphabet mafia culture
Omg it’s true I’ll be like why do I know [science fact] and then it’s cause of magic school bus. Ms Frizzle Adopt Me Challenge 2k21 (that’s how hard we’re fucked up rn lmaoooo)
I’m generally likable, like no one finds me offensive, but most people aren’t *friends* with me either so....,,,,,
I mean my siblings are adults so they don’t really bother me but yeah in general I’m glad I’m an only child. Although sometimes I think I’d be less lonely if I had a sibling so idk
Yeah I’m wired my teammates really fucked me over and now I’m fucking exhausted but it’s ok I’ll be fine
That’s valid people that like math are cool. I can’t do either math or science to save my life but my bf can and I think they’re neat. I got chem tutoring the other day I think I told u and now it’s better.
Yeah lunch is nice I miss lunch with my friends. Most of them don’t go to my school anymore but it was nice last year.
Remember kids, I always condone murder (/j) (or am I) (I am)
Sorry I’m so out of it today I promise I’ll be more living tomorrow
My hair is just brown. It’s light brown, but it’s just brown. I had it dyed indigo two years ago tho and blue last year. If I don’t get it red this summer I’ll be salty. What color is yours?
Oooo is the library doing its thing again? Yay!
See ya soon friend :)

Let me...write something about GOHS episode 4. (SPOILERS, somewhat, and just me trying to make some sort of sense of the mess)
As someone who both watches anime and Korean Dramas, the pull last episode made was...weird. I don’t know how webtoon works. I don’t know the kind of sheer absurdity and drama it has. I know some K-Drama really dramatize certain things, and you’d still find things cheesy and cringe-worthy even in the best ones (but the best ones have so much going on in them that you can forgive the cringe-worthy scenes). But teen marriage...? In a modern day Seoul...? Really...?
Why?
And Mira’s a well-off girl whose family owns a (failed) dojo (but they still own it).
Not only did it not expand more on the reasons and drama behind Mira’s choice to take a stranger (yes, a weird ossan stranger who’s a celebrity but is still a stranger nonetheless, who, of course, have some hidden agenda that Mira, for some reason, chose not to see because her oh-so-important dojo is (finally) about to be saved), but in less than half the run-time, we already see her wearing her bridal gown and putting on her makeup. And none of her family thinks this is weird. Forget if she’s happy or not. She’s a freaking high school student! Would you really let your high school niece get married even if they love each other and she’d be happy with him???
And her uncle! Get your act together! You’re her uncle! You’ve been living with her for at least ten years! She’s basically your adoptive daughter. You do have a say in what goes on in her life. She might think it’s the best choice (to save her family’s dojo), but she’s still a naive kid, and you should’ve put some sense into her head.
Huh! Well, hearing Miki Shinichiro and Rie Kugimiya in the episode eased my irritation somewhat.
Anyway, Mori, our strong shounen protagonist with a mysterious past and a heart of gold, goes off into a tirade on whether Mira wants this, and she’s just throwing her dreams away. Well, on one side I’m glad someone’s actually talking to her (in front of a whole audience in the reception room where apparently Daewi and the weird ossan are fighting in the back xD). On the other hand, this comes from Mori, a 16 (or was it 17? Then again, Korea’s 17 is actually 16 since their birth is counted as 1 year old) year old boy who I don’t think has any more experience than Mira does - and also another stranger who is not privy to all the things going on in her life. (But hey, this is shounen. Of course 16/17 year olds give off speeches on what they should and should not do).
I think the last 5-10ish minutes redeem itself? Kind of? The sketchy ossan turns out to have one of those personas one of the commissioners had. Some kind of cool fights. I thought he’d be taken in or something, but he just...runs off with Mira’s sword, laughing? And then...it ends in a really high, intense note, setting for some drama that will undoubtedly take hold in the next episode. Well, that at least managed to maintain my hype for the show. Otherwise, it’s an overall weak episode.

Why does BTS want to do this documentary and what do they want from it?
Yoongi: What I can say for sure is that there’s a reason we do this. I want [the documentary] to have a reason.
Hoseok: I think the fans would be curious about what we do backstage.
Namjoon: I think this has to be raw.
Hoseok: What happens before we do make-up…what we do when we’re in hotels.
Namjoon: Honestly, sometimes we argue. It happens, you know? We need to show them plainly. I think we need to show them without adding or concealing anything.
Yoongi: That’s how people think of us. They think we show our lives without filtering anything, but we hide a lot of things. I tried really hard so that my weaknesses don’t show. We should get rid of all that and show them the raw side.
Namjoon: When we’re under pressure we get annoyed at each other. We get sensitive. I think we need to show them some of that, too.
Yoongi: During our performance of preparations, we always show the finished product. Honestly, we don’t want to show them the entire process because there are a lot of things that we’re not good at.
Namjoon: What I’ve always emphasized ever since we made our debut is that we want to interact man to man. I struggle internally every day. I actually have these kinds of thoughts and have these other sides. But, if I let them see it, they might worry and they might not like me. I really want to break out of that.
Yoongi: Let’s say I do something. If you have a negative view of it, it looks bad. But if you see the positive side, it can be good. But to our fans, at least, we try really hard to show them everything honestly. I want them to think, “Oh, I didn’t know they had that side.” It’ll be an opportunity to show them more by filtering less.
Namjoon: Our biggest strength is that human touch [we have] and we can show them more of it. So they think, “They’re just like me. They get irritated under pressure and they also cry.” I was only lucky to find what I wanted to do earlier in life. I was lucky to find good friends and that’s how I made it here. If I get frustrated during work, I just read webtoons for five hours and some days I just don’t want to work. People think I always work hard, but sometimes I want to lay down and sleep. Things like that.
Yoongi: They said that we’ll cry if we watch this 10 or 20 years later. After I heard that, I could imagine myself watching this in 10 or 20 years. When I see this camera, I feel like I’m going to cry. It feels strange. I think it’s going to be a life…
Everyone: [giggling]
Namjoon: Already? We haven’t done anything yet! But I know what you mean.
Yoongi: Yeah, [the thought] feels weird.
#i typed the intro up for people who are uncomfortable with the documentry to provide some clarity#dont do anything that makes you feel uncomfortable but i know a lot of you didnt want to watch because you felt as if they had no choice#so here are their words and hopefully it helps you decide#bts#kim namjoon#min yoongi#jung hoseok#rm#j hope#suga#bangtan boys

Dogs Everywhere
A Good Day To Be A Dog (Webtoon)
Jungkook x Reader
⚠️ Grammatical Error
⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣⌣
Born as the youngest of the two sisters in an ordinary family, I had an okay childhood without anything in particular to comment on.
"MOM!! UNNIE IS BUGGING ME AGAIN" My sister said as she pulls my hair, hurting me even more. I grew irritated as I shouted, "YOU HIT ME FIRST!!"
"GIRLS!! CAN'T YOU JUST BE QUIET FOR JUST ONE DAY!" Our mom came out of the kitchen holding a knife, pointing towards us. Scared that we may get hit, we quieted down and looked at each other pouting.
My grades in middle school were okay,
As my teacher calls my name, I stood up and he handed out my math test. He smiled at me, "You're first place again, (Y/N)" I bowed thankful and went back to my seat.
I'm not bad-looking,
As I pass by the halls going to my classroom, I see boys and girls whispering and pointing at my direction.
"Look! Look! Isn't (Y/N) so pretty?"
"I wish I could be just like her"
"I hope she accepts my confession"
And I have an easygoing personality so I always had lots of friends around me.
They laughed even harder as I put my blazer on my head while still wearing it while doing an even funnier face, "Look! I'm the penguine in Batman!"
They laughed even harder, "What the hell, (Y/N)!!" I laughed as I chased them around the hallway.
"You're killing me!"
The state teaching exam is known for its difficulty but I even passed that on my first try. I felt so embarrassed to even walk around the neighborhood because my parent's bragging back then.
As I walk home from the exam, I saw some of the people on my neighborhood talking about something. I blushed as I walked faster to ignore them about my parent's bragging about me.
But alas, they saw me. "Hey (Y/N)!! Congratulations!" An elderly man congratulated me.
"Haha, thank you" I smiled at him and bowed.
"Yeah! I heard you passed the teaching exam, Haha! Amazing!"
When you look at it like this, it seems like I've lived a solid life without any twists and turns but right now I think I'm a very unhappy woman.
I stared at students as I walked pass classrooms.
Because of this one thing in my life that has never worked out smoothly!
I entered the classroom as I saw my students throwing paper balls at their friends, chatting with their friends and just being noisy, typical for a student.
I sighed as I walked in gloomy.
"At least pretend to be seated when the teacher comes in the room, you brats!!!" I slammed my attendance notebook on my desk staring irritated at them.
"Jeez! Miss~ why are you so sensitive today? Did you get dumped again?" One my students asked questioningly. I flinched.
The atmosphere around me turns sulky and quiet.
"Hey...sit down, sit down"
The atmosphere still is somber...
"How many times is this now?" The same student questioned. "Let's be quiet, guys" the class president shushed him.
I looked at them tired, "Don't pity me. I'd rather let you just go back to being loud again."
I've never had a proper relationship.
_
I'm in the canteen looking blank and staring only at my food as I scooped up my food someone suddenly called me. "(Y/N)~~!!" She tapped me at the back. "I heard you got dumped again."
I stared at her surprised, "How did you know?!!" She smiled at me, "I had your students in fourth period. They said to be nice to you because you're not in a good mood." She winked at me.
"So they're all excited because they got something on me again, huh?" I tsked and pouted, "I really have problematic students" she sighed and leaned her head on her arm that was resting on the table, "Why did you get dumped this time? Was it because of..that thing?"
My mood turned sour, "...Yeah. He said I'm strange" she looked at me amused. "Well, you are strange. But still,—" I looked at her blankly. "Doesn't it seem a bit odd to date someone under the condition that you 'don't kiss'?" I snarled.
"THEN THEY SHOUDN'T HAVE DATED ME!!! I TOLD THEM VERY CLEARLY BEFORE WE STARTED DATING!!" I shouted at the top of my lungs, gaining looks from other teachers. "But they were all like..."
"What?? You were serious about that? I thought you were kidding obviously."
"But why? I've heard of chastity before marriage but this is a first."
"Then why are you dating?"
I rested my head on the table, "Would it kill them not to kiss me? I'm willing to do anything but kiss so what's the problem!!" My friend looked at me strange, "That's what's strange. If you're not going to do one thing, you shouldn't do anything. Why is only kissing not allowed?"
"It's not that you've really never kissed anyone before, right?" I flinched as she laughed at her joke. I looked at the other way as she noticed my expression. "Are you sick or something?" She looked at me concerned.
I stared at my food as I remembered something. "Well...
My sister opened the door of my bedroom and she looked surprised as she saw me, "Sis..."
"I guess you could call it a sickness." I looked at her tired. "What is it?" She questioned but I just ignored her. "I want to go into a forest or something and shout." I stared up ahead, "Shout what?" She questioned again.
"Why I can't kiss someone!!" I stretched backwards as I accidentally hit someone as I stretched. I felt something hot on my sleeve. "No! my cardigan!"
I looked at the person and saw Jeon Jungkook, a teacher and a frenemy? Idk of mine. He looked at me, unfazed. "It wasn't my fault"
"I know. Did you get any on your clothes, Mr. Jeon?" I searched around his clothes to see if there were any stains. He shooked his head as a no. I blinked, "Then did you spill any on your han..." he didn't even let me finish, he just walked away.
"He left before I could even apologize. That personality of his..." I sighed irritated as I watch him walk away. My friend looked at me again, "Why do you hate Jeon Jungkook so much? He's a bit cold but he sure is handsome." I glared at her, "I don't hate him, he's the one who hates me."
"Why?" I shrugged, "How should I know?" She sighed at my behavior as we continue to chat and eat.
_
As I was walking to my next class, I saw Jungkook also passing by the hallway. I sighed, 'let's be nice'. I smiled at him as I walked pass but was stopped by a hand grabbing my shoulder, turning me around to face him.
"Here" he handed me his cardigan, "Your coat has a stain because of the coffee, right?" My eyes widened. "You don't need to—" I spluttered. He sighed, "Just take it, its like a sign that I'm sorry for what had happened"
"Uh— well thanks" I smiled at him as I see his ears going pink. I wore his cardigan and fixed it properly, woah it's warm. I smiled again gratefully as I was about to say thank you again, I saw Mr. Jung running in our direction while Mr. Kim is chasing him.
"Mr. Jeon l—" I didn't get to finish my sentence as Jungkook was pushed by Mr. Jung towards me making him collapse on top of me onto the floor. I closed my eyes from the impact but I feel soft lips on my own. I opened my eyes in a hurry and was met by cute doe eyes. He stood up quickly followed by me.
'Oh no' I nervously looked around. I heard him coughed, "I'm so sor—" he didn't get to finish his sentence as I run off to another direction. "Hey!" He shouted at me but I didn't turn back.
_
As I rounded by the corner out of breath, I saw one of my students passing by too. "This is an unlucky day" I shrieked. I turned around the corner again then—
POOF~~~
I knew it was coming, I will turn into a dog when I kiss a guy. Damn ancestors cursing himself. Turning to a dog really makes me sad but still, objectively speaking, I do look cute as a dog.
"Ms. (L/N)" I freeze as I heard a familiar voice. "Is that you?" I turned around as I see Jungkook looking surprised and at aww as he sees me at my dog form.
Oh shit.
