ONE | TWO | THREE | FOUR

“Y/N.” Minho breathes, your ass wiggling against his cock. “Are you sure you want to do this?”

You roll over to face him, smiling widely. “You have no idea how sure I am.” You say, your eyes darting from his and back down to his lips. You bite your lip slightly as he moves closer to you, hesitantly pressing his lips against yours. He pulls back quickly, staring at you to make sure it was okay. You laugh, pulling him back towards you, crashing your lips to his while he immediately slides his tongue into your mouth. He whines into the kiss, his hands needily groping your body until he rolls himself on top of you, pinning you down to the bed.

Minho breaks the kiss, peppering kisses down your jaw to your neck and down to your chest. He lifts up your shirt to grab your tits, putting your nipple in his mouth, sucking gently to make you moan beneath him. You reach your hand in-between the two of you, grabbing his clothed cock, jerking him through his boxers. He drops his head, groaning as you continue pumping his cock. He pulls himself away from you, moving down your body to pull off your panties. He spreads your legs widely, licking a long strip up your already wet pussy, swirling his tongue around your already throbbing clit. He gently pushes two fingers inside you, pumping them in and out as his lips latch around your clit, sucking a little harder as your back arches, you moan loudly, groping yourself before moving your hands to his hair. You hold tightly onto a clump of his hair, grinding your cunt against his face.

“Oh my fucking god.” You scream out, squeezing your eyes shut as your orgasm builds so fucking quickly. “Please… please don't stop.” You pant, holding onto his hair tighter.

Minho moves his tongue faster, flicking and licking your clit, pumping his fingers in and out of you faster and harder, making you moan even louder.

“Fuck…fuck fuck.” You scream as your orgasm bursts through your body. You arch your back even more, releasing his hair as your chest heaves, your pussy still throbbing.

Minho gives you no time, quickly discarding his boxers before he lubes up his cock. He holds your legs up high, grabbing tightly onto your ankles as he slides his cock into your cunt. He stretches you out, making you gasp and giving you no time to adjust to his size. Minho repeatedly pulls out of you, slamming his cock back into you, stretching you out over and over again.

“Fuck, you feel so good kitten.” He groans, tightening his grip around your ankles as he fucks you so good. He moves one hand to your sensitive clit, rubbing it as he picks up his pace making you squirm underneath him.

“Oh… please… fuck.” You breathe, running your hands through your hair as your second orgasm builds.

“You gonna cum?” He groans. “Cum on my cock.”

Your eyes almost roll back into your head as he hits the right spot with each thrust, throwing you over the edge, your orgasm radiating through your entire body.

Minho's thrusts become erratic as he pants above you, his own orgasm finally hitting him as he spills his warm cum deep inside you. He collapses on top of you, breathing heavily before he pulls himself out of you, rolling over onto the other side of the bed.

“Wow.” He whispers.

“You can say that again.” You smile, feeling the happiest you'd felt in weeks.

“Do you wanna take a shower?” Minho asks, turning his head to face you. You nod your head as you eagerly get up and out of bed, sort of hoping for round two.

**

It had been weeks. Weeks of you and Minho being together, officially. The two of you had told all your friends, and his, except for one person, who you hadn't seen or heard from in weeks and you weren't mad about it. Life has been great for you lately, and you didn't want the little happy bubble that was you and Minho to burst.

“There's no way!” You laugh, leaning back into Minho's chest. You were sitting on the floor while he sat in a chair a little higher above you, with his arm wrapped around your chest, surrounded by friends while you played a bunch of drinking games.

“He absolutely fucking did.” Hyunjin laughs, looking around the room to decide who to pick for his turn.

“Okay! Truth or Dare for… Y/N.” Hyunjin smiles.

“Um… Oh fuck.” You laugh. “Truth.” You decide for this round.

“Who has been your best fuck?” He asks, taking a swig of his beer.

You can feel Minho tense up around you. “Did I hear Y/N’s name?” You hear a familiar voice. Now it was your turn to tense up. Your head shoots up as your smile drops, seeing Jeongin walk into the room, carrying a case of beer. Minho lets go of you in an instant, leaning back in the chair as Jeongin’s eyes land directly on you.

“What are you doing here?” Jeongin asks you, setting his beer down on the table.

“I was invited.” You say, clearing your throat.

Jeongin nods his head, grabbing a beer before taking a seat right across from you.

“So are you gonna answer the question?” Jeongin asks. “Who was your best fuck, Y/N?”

You wanted to strangle the motherfucker.

“Why don't you take this one, Jeongin? It's okay, you can say Chae.” You spit.

You can see him tense up, shuttering at the memory. “She was pretty freaky.” He chuckles. “She might be able to teach you a thing or two.”

“Why are you being a dickhead to me? I didn't do anything to you.” You say.

“You just left me! After one mistake.” Jeongin yells.

“One mistake!? You cheated on me and then you fucking lied to me constantly!” You yell back. “I'm not doing this with you. I'm happy. Just don't talk to me.”

“Here we go.” He scoffs, rolling his eyes. “I just want another chance.”

“You're not getting one. I've moved on.” You say, crossing your arms.

“I don't believe you. You were too fucking in love with me to move on. You'll give me another chance. I'll make sure you give into me.” He laughs.

You stand up, ready to storm out of the room, frustrated that he wouldn't give up. But Minho grabs your wrist, pulling you into his lap. He smiles at you as his hand slides up your cheek and he presses his lips against yours, kissing you passionately in front of Jeongin. He finally breaks the kiss grinning at you, your head is spinning as you smile back at him.

“Are you fucking kidding me?” Jeongin yells, slamming his beer down on the table. “You fucking stole my girlfriend?” He screams.

“Sit down, baby.” Minho whispers to you as he stands up, having you sit in his spot. “I didn't steal shit from you. You lost her when you fucked up. I was there for her, I put her heart back together and I'm not about to let you break it again.” Minho snaps.

“What do you fucking know!?” Jeongin yells, walking towards Minho. “You have no idea what happened between us!”

“She told me everything. Not to mention I was there when she ran out of the apartment sobbing because she caught you fucking her best friend.” Minho laughs. “Just face it, you're a piece a shit and you lost her because you're a fucking piece of shit.”

“Fuck you!” Jeongin yells, getting into Minho's face. “I'm not letting this happen. I'll tell you right fucking now I will get her back and you wanna know how you're gonna find out? You're gonna walk in on me ramming my cock into her.” He whispers.

Minho chuckles, turning to look at you. “I wanna hit him.” He sighs. You smile at him, shrugging your shoulders. “Ah, fuck it, I'm gonna hit him.” He says, turning back around, raising his fist to swing at Jeongin, hitting him square in the face and knocking him out.

“Holy shit.” Chan gasps, all the guys standing up, unsure of what to do. Jeongin squirms on the floor, groaning as he holds his face. Minho grabs your hand, pulling you up.

“We're gonna go. My apologies, Felix. Thanks for a great evening.” Minho smiles, stepping over Jeongin, holding your hand all the way to the car.

The entire car ride was silent, the two of you trying to process the situation that had just unfolded in front of you. Once the two of you get back to Minho's apartment. You sit down on the couch, hanging your head down as you try to not cry. You didn't want all this drama, but it seems like Jeongin will stop at nothing and honestly you wouldn't blame Minho for not wanting to stick around through that.

“Y/N?” He whispers, sitting beside you. “You okay?”

You shake your head, taking a deep breath. “I'm sorry about him. I don't want the drama but he just brings it all out.” You sigh. “I understand if you wanna end things.”

“End things?” Minho asks. He grabs onto your arm and pulls you on top of him to straddle him. He smiles at you, tucking a strand of your hair behind your ear.

“It’s gonna take a lot more than an immature ex-boyfriend to scare me off.” He chuckles. “I'd go to the ends of the earth for you, baby girl. I'm not going anywhere.”

He leans in, pressing his lips to yours. For the first time, you were actually thankful to Jeongin for putting you through what he did. Had he not, you'd never have found where you belonged, which was right here in Minho's arms.

The End.

[formerlycookierunauprompts]

Yo, is me, I was one of the anons with this prompt

“Idea, reader cookie wakes up from a nightmare and runs into pure vanilla and tells him what happened to them, he reassures them that they’ll be fine, and offering them to stay in his room for the night…little do they know, for that is not pure vanilla…”

Uh-if ya wanna do it that’s cool

I'm pretty sure the last time you sent this the ask bx was closed but Sure! I'm happy to do it now.

Set in the Warden!Reader Timeline btw, plus Warden Reader Lore. Under the cut because it's pretty long.

Requested Prompts #46 - 💔💓

You are the Warden of the Great Seal, created by the Witches to keep the sealed Beasts in check. Nothing more, nothing less. You patrol the realm of the seal tirelessly, perhaps day in day out. But you never knew what time it was there, nor how much time had passed. You just know that it's long judging by Eternal Sugar's complaints. After all, you are the Warden of the Seal. Nothing more, nothing less. It was the purpose the Witches made you for, right? You are the Warden of the Seal. Nothing more, nothing less. " But there HAS to be something more, right?" A voice nags at you, interrupting your patrol. You cannot identify its source, its likely just one of the Beasts messing with you again. You're almost like a chew toy to them. You can't even begin to recount the amount of times you've been torn apart, you tend to keep your distance from Burning Spice and Eternal Sugar. But it's fine, they are contained. You're doing a good job. They can't escape, they won't escape. You can't escape, you won't ever escape. You are the Warden of the Seal, nothing more, nothing less. You aren't meant to be anyone else. But what if you are? You are the Warden of the Seal. Nothing more, nothing less. Who were you before you were the warden? You are the Warden of the Seal. Nothing more, nothing less. Can you hear that breaking sound? You are the Warden of the Seal. Nothing more, nothing less. Can you smell that scent? You are the Warden of the Seal, keeping the Seal closed is your job. Can you taste that fresh air? You are the Warden of the Seal. Can you see the empty prisons? You may just suck at your job. Can you feel that you're alive?

----

You awake with a sharp gasp, grabbing your spear from next to where you were laying down. A bed, your mind supplies you with. More specifically, it's a bed in the... uh, where are you again? Come to think of it, there isn't supposed to be any beds inside the seal. So then where are you? And what happened? " Miss Warden?" You hear a voice, you quickly point your weapon at the source and- Oh, it's just Pure Vanilla Cookie. You slowly lowered your spear. " My apologies, but it seemed like you were having a nightmare. Are you alright?" " I- I'm fine. It was just a dream after all." You deflect, and you swear that for just a moment you can see Pure Vanilla Cookie's eye twitch. You remembered where you are now, this was the Faerie Kingdom. It was the home of the Silver Tree, otherwise known as the seal, and you'd left the seal to chase after Shadow Milk Cookie since he'd escaped(momentarily, you remind yourself). The main problem, was that White Lily Cookie had re-sealed Shadow Milk into the seal without you. So naturally, you were on edge. " Are you sure?" Pure Vanilla questioned you. " You did look quite disturbed, Little Warden. If there's anything troubling you, then don't be afraid to tell us." He then offered with a kind smile, it was nice of him to do so in fact. Except, there was just one thing that had made you skeptical. Sure, it was something nice but... " ... 'Little Warden'? You muttered aloud, just enough for Pure Vanilla to hear you. Wasn't Pure Vanilla at least a head shorter than you? So then why would he... Actually, wait. Pure Vanilla hadn't gone through a growth-spurt, right? Because he was simply too tall- Wait. Your formerly appreciative expression falters into a neutral grimace, you could smell the ash from the flames of chaos outside. You could see the cracks in his disguise, in fact, you could even see the maze you'd been trapped in with your new allies sitting on the drawers as if it were an innocent snow-globe, the maze also seemed to be contained in said snow-globe. You point your spear at him again, now knowing who he truly is. " Shadow Milk Cookie." You said sternly. " Drop that disguise you're wearing, I know it's you." The beast wearing Pure Vanilla's dough smirked, a grin far too wide present on his face. " Well well well well well! I didn't think you'd figure me out so soon~!" Shadow Milk's voice came through, he'd completely dropped any pretense that he could have been Pure Vanilla in the slightest way. The beast then dropped to the floor with a splat, melding back into the shadows. It isn't too long before you can feel him curl around you, back in his true shape, resting his head and hands upon your shoulders. You staggered in his grasp with a gasp, your spear dropping out of your hands as you lost your footing. " How'd you guess it was me? My silly lilttle Warden?~ Come on, I'm just crumbling to know!" He chirped, holding your weapon just out of reach. " You..." You almost growled, not willing to entertain the twisted entertainer before you. " What have you done to my allies? Why am I here? Did you give me that dream?" You calmly(or maybe coldly?) questioned him, you know that you shouldn't give in to his tomfoolery. " Oh no no no no no my dear, dreamland isn't my domain, that would be Eternal Sugar's." Shadow Milk chirped, so then... Had all the beast's gotten out? You couldn't help but feel a pang of dread settle in. " As for why you're here, well, you refused to stay put in my silly little maze of deceit! You ended up getting out so... I decided to bring you here!" " And 'here' would be...?" You asked, tilting your head back to look at him.

" The Spire of Deceit and Truth!" He hummed. " Oh, and if you're planning on escaping then don't even try to! Each floor of the spire is it's own maze of deceit, it's almost impossible to get out!" He says, as if you can't just jump off the balcony. He detaches from you, letting you fall back onto your surprisingly comfortable bed. It's only now that you realize just how large everything's gotten, your reminder that you were just a crumb compared to the beasts. The shadows collect and grow in mass, eventually all forming together to make Shadow Milk's towering form. " Well, I have to go now! All of Earthbread is waiting for my next performance! So just stay put here, you cute little thing~!" He chirped, all before disappearing in a flash of blue light. And now that you're given a moment longer to think, you come to a realization. You failed at your job, if all the other beasts got out then... the seal would have to be broken, heck, maybe even destroyed. And now, you're probably the only one who even has a chance of wrangling them all back up. Hopefully the seal can be repaired... If it's not entirely destroyed.

----

And there we go! finally got this out. I got too busy playing side order for splatoon three but now I am back on the grind! Mostly. (It's five AM as of posting this, don't worry I did in fact sleep.)

But anyways yeah! reader angst! yippee! This takes place in a more sort of 'things are going bad but we may or may not get a bad ending?' timeline for the Warden!Reader AU. Aka where all the beasts get out and Warden!Reader gets trapped in the maze for a while before figuring out she's in Shadow Milk's stupid fucking maze.

But however will the little warden defeat the five great beasts? Well, that's for you to figure out. I'm just the prompt guy(girl).

This Week in BL - Bunch of Stuff Coming in August

July 2023 Wk 5

Being a highly subjective assessment of one tiny corner of the interwebs. Organized by which ones (in each category) I’m enjoying most.

Ongoing Series - Thai

Laws of Attraction (Sat iQIYI) 2-3 of 8 - Oh good, we now know that Thailand has the same statutory rape laws as the US. Dub con is as dub con does. MEANWHILE Oh my God I love evil lawyer cutie so much. Him and his beautiful weaponized smile, maybe my new favorite character. I like the way this director is playing with noir mystery tropes, settings, and archetypes too - it’s feeling very 60s pulp, I’m getting gay Travis McGee vibes. Grandma knowing that her grandson likes boys is so sweet. I have to be completely frank here, this is what I wanted from both Manner of Death and KP. I truly love this show

Hidden Agenda that isn’t hidden (Sun GMMTV YouTube) ep 3 of 10 - It’s a very Cyrano de Bergerac kind of narrative... If Cyrano fell in love with Christian instead of Roxanne. Mock date was fun. 

Low Frequency (Sat iQIYI) ep 4 of 8 - Into the lion’s den. Investigation begins. Why isn’t the ghost acting lookout? Who are these random side characters? I’m confused. Half way through kiss is right on schedule tho. 

Wedding Plan (Weds YT & iQIYI) ep 2 of 7 - The kiss was nice, but it’d be nicer if Nuea had punched Lom. Manipulative arse. A trash watch is happening!

Be Mine Super Star (Mon Viki) ep 4 of 12 - Meh. 

Dinosaur Love (Sun iQIYI) ep 5 of 8 eps - The hazing has begun + secret relationship and it’s kinda like a v soft SOTUS. Dino is getting a bit too controlling and obsessive for me so it slid down the ranks. I much prefer La Cusine’s version of this dynamic. The friends protecting Dino’s interests were funny tho - boy is so obsessed he outsources his stalking. 

Be My Favorite (Fri YouTube) ep 10 of 12 - Max is BEST BOY. I hate Kawi. Tra la la. Trash watch here.

Ongoing Series - Not Thai

Jun & Jun (Korea Thurs Viki) 2 of 8 - Our ex idol is a total FLIRT. Nice to see an uke with agency. I mean baby girl is a newbie worker bee… but still flirty, good for you, sweetie. I see your little lip bite and so does your soon to be husband. Speaking of, I love Choi Jun’s style of seme aggression: a little sleezy + a bit too handsy + ultra clever with his words. Plus tie tug!!! Also threatening to take off your TAILORED suit so baby wears your shirt and smells like you? HOT. Boy you sped right past American style and into Italian - that’s real Corinthian leather, that is. 

Stay By My Side (Taiwan Fri Gaga) 5 of 10 eps - Mid series kiss right on schedule. Thank you for never upsetting me, Taiwan. Omg. Such boyfriends. Only Taiwan gets this sappy. I have to say, I watch this show after Tokyo on purpose. (I need the pallet cleanser.) Still, I’m scared that the perception will be that Bu Xia is using Jiang Chi, not in love with him, when the truth about ghosts comes out. Why doesn’t BX’s useless sister do something for her disaster brother? I guess JC likes a needy boy? Oh no, the kiss confusion. Lip touch but rejection (?). Nooooo. I suppose they have to draw this out for 10 eps. Gah, they’re so cute. But BX is a bit dim, isn’t he? Poor thing. 

Minato's Laundromat Season 2 AKA Minato Shouji Coin Laundry Season 2 (Japan Thu Gaga) 4 of 12 eps - Shin is such a worrywart, over protective, over the top boyfriend. I guess we saw a little bit of give from Minato? More than usual, baby steps. This is Japan after all.

Tokyo in April is... AKA Shigatsu no Tokyo wa (Japan Fri Gaga) ep 7 of 8 - Japan’s favorite trope = the running of the gays. Kazama knows everything now. Ep ends on one of my few triggers. SKIP! Japan you better NOT go there.

Vian the series (Vietnam YouTube ) ep 11-12fin - terrible ending, he turned back into a cat and the whole thing was pointless. I am very annoyed. 4/10 FATALLY FLAWED 

It’s airing but ...

Stay With Me ... NO I WILL NOT! And you can’t make me.

In case you missed it

Stay (Pinoy YouTube) finished its run at 7 eps. It’s mostly English & set in LA (shudder) so I did not bother. I say little to no chatter about this (that’s normal with the Pinoy stuff tho). Did anyone watch and enjoy? 

Next Week Looks Like This:

Coming August 2023

8/1 Stay Still (Hong Kong Tues YouTube) 5 eps - Yes we have had BL from Hong Kong before, but that was... before... who knows what it’ll be like now. Hayden, moves into a new apartment and starts a complicated relationship with his neighbor’s grandson, Damien, after an unexpected kiss. Meanwhile: Archie rekindles a romance with his high school sweetheart, Kelvin, who is now married.

8/11 Love Class Season 2 (Korea Fri Viki) 10 eps - Hyun, Minwoo and Joo-Hyuk are looking forward to their freshman year at college. But trials and tribulations of love that await them outside the classroom: from learning about maturity to being unable to forget the scars of past lovers. (All new cast from season 1.) 

8/12 My Personal Weatherman AKA Taikan Yoho (Japan Sat ????) 8 eps - hum. 

8/19 Love in Translation (Thai Sat One31) ? eps - Two strangers start working in a cafe together.

8/20 My Universe series begins (Thai Sun iQIYI) 24 episodes - This is sampler pack BL, 12 pairs, each pair gets 2 episodes, not entirely sure on the order they’ll drop in. Known couples include EarthBank from Destiny Seeker and KaownahTurbo from Love Stage!!!, mostly fresh faces otherwise. Jane to direct several. 

8/22 Kisseki: Dear to Me formerly known as Miracle (Taiwan Tues ????) 13 eps - From screenwriter Lin Pei Yu (We Best Love, H3: Trapped) features a student doctor forced to take care of a gangster. I love the premise and like the writer, I’m thinking Viki or Gaga will get this one.  

8/24 Man Suang (Thailand movie domestic cinemas) - historical drama about Thai burlesque with KP’s MileApo. Tong is in this one too? 

8/? Sing My Crush previously Follow The Wind (Korea ????) 8 eps - supposed to have released in the first half of 2022 this is a adaption of Myung’s webtoon, from the director of My Sweet Dear, and the Love Tractor production house, looks like Korea does About Youth.

8/? Why R U? (Korean remake)  is supposed to be out this month, filming started in sept 22. I find everything about this hilarious. I mean if Korea remakes it, we lose all the sexy and then... would we have a story at all? No we would not. Not even for six short eps. It’d be like one of those mesh shopping bags. 

We can probably expect a new BL from GMMTV too, to slot into BMF’s spot mid month. 

2023 forthcoming BL master post (see comments, some are inaccurate, NOT KEPT UPDATED)

THIS WEEK’S BEST MOMENTS

I do love a hyung romance, and this aggressive ghost-ish thing is working for me. (Low Frequency) 

Hidden Agenda + My Ride. 

So coy

I agree with @heretherebedork​ that these two make a great side couple but I am utterly in love with...

HER. (All Laws of Attraction.) 

(Last week)

[restlesswritings]

CIX REACTIONS:

Reaction to you wearing their clothes

A/N: Requests open; Pairing: CIX Members x Fem Reader Genre: Fluff Warnings: Suggestive, Cursing Masterlists: CIX JPOP KPOP

BX

You let out a groan, not being able to reach your favorite mug from the top shelf in the cabinet, "Ugh why did he put it up here!" You mumble to yourself, before standing up on your tiptoes, stretching your body as far as you can. "Ugh, almost got i-" Your words trail off when you hear the sound of someone clearing their throat behind you, you twist back to look at them. "Ehm, hey.." You say sheepishly as you're met with your boyfriend, Byounggon, feeling your face heat up because you know he can definitely see your underwear peeking out from his shirt you have on. "Well damn you look good in my shirt.. need help?" He asks, letting out a laugh, making his way over to you, grabbing the cup and placing it in your hands. "Baby! Next time don't put my mug so high up!" You playfully scold, causing him to smirk as he wraps his arms around your waist. "Oh I'm definitely putting everything up high from now on!" He says, shooting you a toothy grin.

Seunghun

"Hey jagi, can you bring me my charger??" Seunghun yells to you from your shared bedroom, causing you to playfully roll your eyes as you grab his charger. "Hun, just pause the gam-" You begin as you walk into the bedroom, stopping when you see the way your boyfriend is looking at you, eyes completely abandoning the game. "What..?" You ask, standing awkwardly in the doorway, he continues staring at you before a smile creeps onto his face. "You're wearing my hoodie?" He asks, a slight smirk evident on his face. "Y-yeah.. you said I could?" You say slightly confused, earning a laugh from him. "I did but I didn't expect you to actually do it.. I like it a lot.." He says, a blush creeping up his face causing you to smile. "Oh? You do?" You ask, making your way to him. "I didn't think you'd like it this much." You say, a smirk making its way on your lips as you plant a quick kiss on his lips before sprinting out of the room, Seunghun trailing behind you.

Yonghee

"Y/N! You look so cute !" Your boyfriend says excitedly when he walks in the door after seeing you wearing one of his hoodies. "Awh haha thanks baby. How was rehearsal?" You ask, cheeks flushed from his previous compliment, Yonghee lets out a laugh at your shyness as he sits next to you. "Jagi, I can't focus right now, you look too cute in my hoodie!" He says, pulling you into his arms. "You're so dramatic!" You say through laughter when his fingers start tickling your sides. "S-stop." You beg, laughter continuing to fill the air as he joins you. "Only if you promise to never wear another hoodie again, only mine." He says in a serious voice, earning an exaggerated nod from you. "Okay yes whatever you want!" You yell out causing his fingers to stop as he pulls you into his arms. "Good, I could get used to this." He says, running his fingers through your hair. "I love you" You say with a smile, giving him a gentle kiss, causing him to smile. "I love you too."

Jinyoung

"What is it babe?" You ask with a laugh, not expecting your boyfriend to look at you like that when you arrived with groceries. "I'm shocked! You look so good you look in my clothes! I didn't think I'd like it this much is all jagi." He says, turning towards you with a loaf of bread in his hands and a nonchalant look. "Why are you surprised? You saw me put it on this morning.. as a matter of fact you were the one who lost my shirt!" You tell him with a loud laugh, glaring your eyes at him as you remember your lost shirt. "Wh-me? I don't remember that, I don't know what you're talking about." Jinyoung defends, holding in his laughter as he looks away from you. "Okay.." You say sarcastically, teasing him as you wrap your arms around him. "Do you really like it when I wear your clothes?" You ask, he nods, returning your embrace before he looks down at you with a smirk. "Although, thinking about this morning.. I like you better without them." He says, earning a playful smack to the chest followed by laughter from both of you.

Hyunsuk

"Hey Y/N, what was that song called aga-" Hyunsuk's words trail off when he sees you laying on the couch in his over-sized t-shirt, his voice causing your head to fly up. You shoot him a confused look when you notice him looking at you. "What's wrong?" You ask as he continues his stare, causing you to sit up in an upright position. "Is that my shirt?" He asks, taking a seat next to you, a smile forming on your lips. "Yes! Did you really think I wouldn't take you up on it when you offered to share your clothes??" You ask with a big smile, bumping his much larger shoulder with yours, causing him to let out a small giggle. "I'm really glad you did.. you look so cute in my clothes jagi." Hyunsuk says sweetly, pulling you into his arms. "I don't think you'll ever get this shirt back though.. it's so comfy!" You tell him as you wrap your arms around him and look up at him. "You can keep it, it looks better on you anyways." He says, giving you a gentle kiss on your forehead, causing a giggle to escape your lips.

A/N: They're so CUTE My requests are open! Feel free to request anything! <3

[aquaquadrant]

Amazing just amazing. I'm still reeling. Will defs send so many more thoughts later.

I loved seeing Patho and Dbubs as well as BX and Papa AI more. My love for them knows no bounds. Also the fact Impulse's Hels counterpart gets to keep messing with Atlas is like the universe allowing Impulse to mess with Atlas too which is lovely. God Clear and Scrail GOD. Oh I'm choosing to believe Grian goes and helps that poor man.

Oh one small funny, thing the amount of background anxiety I felt waiting to see if they didn't break the respawn anchor and Tango was gunna be sent back to Hels was a lot.

THANK YOUUU NOVA i’m glad u enjoyed it!! loved getting to revisit all my most specialist fellas (gn) for the ending.

also hagahjdsh LMAO i didn’t even think about that, prob just cuz i wasn’t even considering that tango would die (it was finally time for Things To Go Right so the story could end). u KNO the second he got back to double life his ass was resetting his spawn 😂

Following up on that previous point re the difficulty of programming being a union of the difficulties of STEM and humanities:

"RAX" is a register in x86-64 intel

"EAX" is also a register in x86-64 intel

"AX" is also a register in x86-64 intel

"AH" and "AL" are also (two) registers in etc./

(That last one is technically not true)

This illustrates the point twice-over, first by the unreasonable back-compat of x86, and second by the unreasonable entrenchment of x86.

(Readmore added when I realized I was about to write "Let's go back to the 8086")

---

Let's go back to the 8086 :3

Alright so the 8086. It's popularity is seen in the two senses of its longevity.

The more obvious one is its twenty year life span - it launched in 1978 and you could still buy it in 1998, twenty years later, what?

But it's less-obvious-to-outsiders longevity is this: The language you wrote in to talk to the 8086, the x86 instruction set, is still in use today - everything I do at work is compiled into a dialect of x86 (Specifically x86-64).

The instruction set has been extended a lot since then so you can talk about the features of newer chips but to the best of my 20 minutes of research, a program compiled for the 1978 intel 8086 will still run on a 2023 intel 14900K[1]

So what is the 8086 like?

Well, it has some of those registers I mentioned - it doesn't have EAX and RAX, but it has AX, AH and AL - and BX, BH, BL, and a C... and D... variant of those.

"Oh wow 12 general purpose registers" well yesexceptactuallyno.

There's a reason they're grouped as 3 x 4 letters "A(X,L,H), B(X,L,H) ..." rather than just having 12 letters for 12 registers.

AX is actually just AH and AL next to each other. You can store 8 bits in AH, or 8 bit in AL, or 16 bit if you combine them, with the combination-name AX.

The proper way to describe it is to say that the 8086 has four 16-bit general-purpose registers, AX, BX, CX and DX, each of which has a High and a Low part of 8 bits each.

Alright, we're done talking about the 8086, because a newer chip comes out it's 32 bit! Let's add some 32 bit registers! Let's add EAX, the extended AX register.

Wait that's a terrible name, what? Call it like A32 or something.

Did I say "we're done talking about the 8086?" So that was a fucking lie.

Of course we're still taking about the 8086! All the world's software is written to run on an 8086! If your processor doesn't have an AX register there's no software for it and you won't get any sales - but if you have an AX register taking up space that could be used for a 32 bit register, your chip will be too inefficient and you also won't get any sales. Easy solution: It's the same register! Code that wants to use a 32 bit register asks for EAX, code that wants to use a 16-bit register asks for AX and it just gets the bottom half of the EAX register! Beautiful!

And that's why you have to name it "EAX" - if your user writes to AX, and then to A32, they might get surprised that AX was overwritten. But if they write to EAX, to the extended AX register, they'll know they're overwriting AX.

Wait.

Wait.

Surprised?

What's this "surprised," how is a software delevoper getting surprised, I thougth we were in STEM here? Pure, clear first-principles reasoning, correct logic application and so on?

No - we're in the part of software that is dominated by the difficulties of the Humanities - as a software developer sitting down to hand-roll some x86, you do not have the luxury of a true physical understanding. You have to know what the chip designer decided, not what the laws of physics are. Understanding this is less like Quantum Mechanics and more like Jura, where you need to know a bunch of texts that have nothing to do with justice qua justice and everything to do with how human systems have interpreted justice over the last many centuries. Or like politics! You can lobby for changes! Try doing that to solve your problem with the Fine Constant!

So that's the "unreasonable back compat"

The "unreasonable entrenchment" is that Intel tried to kill x86. It's bad! I mean let me be clear, x86 has one advantage and that is "historical presedence" By just about every other measure it is bad.

Intel knows this! They invented a new instruction set 20 years ago (a reminder here that x86 is 40+ years old) and (1) it was better and (2) it failed miserably because it wasn't x86 back compatible. Oops! So we've been struggling along with x86 back compat ever since.

The unreasonable back compat means that x86 is not the best instruction set for modern chips, as it must also model old chips.

The unreasonable entrenchment is that we can't get rid of x86.

They're trying again now (They annouced x86-S earlier this year) so maybe! But probably not.

[1] Caveat here - it will run on a modern cpu but if you have installed a modern operating system then the operating system will not run it - this fact is exclusively about the hardware realities of the x86.

Heya beta figure !! I've actually made a clothing for ya to look nice and even made a gun for ya !! I want your honest opinion and the beta devs to see!!

If you don't like them you can just give me it back-

Turmoil Hits A Clip! (JB-BX version)

Note: This is a crossover parody based on the original Mario's Madness meme by ProToad64. Thank you. ^^

Turmoil: *He is livesteaming playing a video game* I'm literally about to hit a clip!

*JB-BX comes in since MX didn't have to*

JB-BX: Get off of the game and take a shower.

Turmoil: No, I'm literally about to hit this clip.

JB-BX: I DO NOT CARE! It's been seven months since you last shower! Get off of the game, YOU STINK!

Turmoil: Hang on, this player is literally a sweat.

JB-BX: GET OFF THE GAME!

Turmoil: He's only a tryhard!

JB-BX: I'M TIRED OF YOU STINKING UP THE WHOLE LEVEL!

Turmoil: It's not me!

JB-BX: Get out of your room and take a shower!

Turmoil: Wait wait wait wait, ohh this player is trying so hard at the game.

JB-BX: And you need to try harder in a shower! GET. OFF. THE. GAME!

Turmoil: I'm not even gonna try harder in a shower cuz it does nothing but use flippers or even many betty.

JB-BX: Oh my God, just take a shower!

Turmoil: Nooooo.

JB-BX: ONE SHOWER, EVERY TWO MONTHS, IT'S ALL WE'RE ASKING FOR!

Turmoil: No, it's too many and you're literally ruining the clip!

JB-BX: YOU'RE LITERALLY RUINING MY NOSTRILS!

Turmoil: Hmmm...probably you're just in for a fortnite star.

JB-BX: I'M DONE! I'M DONE, I GIVE UP! DON'T TAKE A SHOWER!

Turmoil: Aughhhhhh

JB-BX: I'M SO DONE! *He left the room in frustration* I'm fucking done with you!

*JB-BX has left the area*

Turmoil: Well, it may not been a clip, but we just took it down with you boys.

Runners part 9

B-111 was excited to see what BX-626 had done with The Runner. Gray was simply no color for a space craft. He and K-3NT neared BX-626’s star port and he could see the glint of a wingtip through the tightly packed shuttles and starfighters parked all around it. He sped up.

“Where is the fiiiire?” K-3NT protested behind him. He’d done better in the foot traffic on the way back, B-111 had been happy to notice. But it still seemed to be unexpectedly taxing for him, mentally. B-111 was sure he’d get there, with time and practice.

“I want to see The Runner, Enty! Come on!” B-111 ducked under and around the other ships, all with mere centimeters of wiggle room between them. That was what was possible when only Droids were landing at a star port. When BX-626 had acquired this place more than a decade ago, she’d been told it could accommodate a maximum of six vessels. There had to be at least twice that parked here. And the Runner was parked right in the middle of it all.

It was sitting resplendent in the same dark metallic bronze finish he’d given his own plating, and that his old rouge-class had been finished in. It made an immensely pleasant difference.

“Why is it brown?” B-111 turned to find K-3NT looking up at the Runner as if bemused. His voice had certainly carried a tone of confusion. 

“Not brown!” B-111 said, irrepressible in his enthusiasm, “That, Enty, is Geonosian Bronze.”

“It looks like brown to me.” “Yeah, and your finish is pink.”

“No it isn’t! It’s Tskad bl-Oh.” K-3NTs shoulders sagged and he glared at B-111. “Very funny.” B-111 shrugged, “turnaround is fair and sound.” K-3NT gave him a sideways look.

B-111 ignored the look, and instead tapped a control surface on his wrist, opening the viewport hatch on the Runner. 

“Just going to leave without saying anything?” B-111 turned to see K-3NT tensely pointing his blaster rifle at BX-626.

“Where did you come from? There is a less than 30% chance you could have approached without detection in this environment.”

BX-626 walked up to K-3NT and forced his blaster point down with her hand. “I’m an assassin droid, slag-foot. I don’t go clomping around everywhere to announce my presence like your sort do.”

B-111 laughed. “I wasn’t going to leave, two-six, I wanted to check something.” 

“If you mean you want to know if I cleaned up your mess, then yeah. I had to move the ship to refinish it, and that involved actually interfacing with the controls. At all. Why in makers name did you not give your second seat its own instruments?”

“Thank you!” K-3NT cried. “That is exactly what I asked!”

“Didn’t need to,” B-111 replied, “I wasn’t planning on having anyone but the Armorer in that seat, and she’s definitely tall enough to see over my head. Besides, I was mostly focused on getting off that rock, not long term functionality.”

“Well, color me impressed then,” BX-626 said, looking the Runner over, “if that’s true, at least. Besides the ugly wiring to your added auxiliaries, everything on here is completely functional. For not thinking of much, you sure did think of everything.”

“So good to hear positivity from you, Two-Six, always so lovely.” B-111 made an exaggerated bow. 

“So are you going to square up your tab now, or after your next job is done?”

B-111 reached into the storage compartment on his jetpack. He took out a handful of coins, which he proffered to BX-626. She looked at the glittering credits and nodded, holding her own hand out and letting B-111 drop them in. 

She tossed the coins and caught them in her other hand. “That will do it, there’s a bit too much here, but I imagine you’ll be back, so I’ll add it as pre-pay to your tab.”

B-111 hopped into the pilots seat and gave a quick salute to BX-626. “That’s nice of you, but you can keep the change. If we ever come back here, we’ll have plenty of credits to go around.”

K-3NT, who had been hoisting himself into the cockpit of The Runner, paused and made a spluttering sound. “‘If’? What do you mean ‘if’? I thought you were on the warriors path, don’t warriors speak in absolutes?”

“Relax about it, Enty! A warrior knows that his path is fraught with danger, and there exists a greater than zero chance he fails in his undertaking. That is why he walks it, to know there is a challenge and purpose! Now get in.”

K-3NT stared at B-111. He turned and stared at BX-626. BX-626 shrugged her shoulders. K-3NT sighed and got into his chair, grumbling throughout the process. BX-626 waved at them as B-111 closed the canopy once more. 

He turned to speak over his shoulder. “Are you buckled, Enty?”

“Yes, I am.” K-3NT sounded huffy. 

“Are you ready?”

“Yes. I am.” He repeated.

“Good!” B-111 said, taking his hands from the controls. “Then taxi us out of atmo-space.”

“What?”

“Were you a shuttle pilot or weren’t you? Come on, take us to space.”

“But I, that is to say, where are we?”

B-111 reached down and tapped at the navicomputer for a moment. “There, jump path programed, now will you please take us out to space?”

“I don’t see why I-”

B-111 turned around again. “Enty… is there a problem?” He’d expected K-3NT to be happy to have the chance to prove his effectuality, happy to have purpose to keep his mind off his present existential crisis. He hadn’t expected this level of resistance.

“I’ve only ever taxied between empty landing pads and capital ships, One-Eleven! I’ve never dealt with… all of that!” He waved his hands generally above his head.

“Enty… ‘all that’ is the most orderly, predictable speeder traffic system this side of Mon Cala.” His words were met with silence. B-111 decided to try a new strategy. “Alright. I’ll do it.”

He sat forwards again, took the controls, and shot the Runner straight up at its maximum lateral traversal rate. “One-Eleven…” K-3NT said behind him. He ignored K-3NT. He halted their vertical climb right before they made contact with an overhead skybridge. He then slammed the throttle to maximum, taking them rocketing straight forwards. He knew, of course, that he was well within his own limits when playing this game. He’d been flying this part of coruscants lower levels for more than a decade, often with far less regard than he had now. But this was enough for K-3NT. 

“One-Eleven! STOP!” B-111 complied instantly, bringing them to a total halt and causing them both to be thrown forwards against their safety harnesses. 

“Alright, Enty, what now?” B-111 waited, and The Runner began to gently move. 

“I will take it from here, thank you very much. You are such a dreadful brute, One-Eleven, and very insensitive.”

“I’m a battle droid.”

“So what? So am I!”

“I thought you were an enforcer droid.”

There was silence as they continued to gracefully lift up through the many levels of the city-planet. When they had left atmospace, B-111 double checked the navicomputer. “We’re ready for the jump,” he said to K-3NT, “Throw the lever at your leisure.”

“Where are you taking us?” K-3NT asked, the tone of suspicion not even concealed in his voice.

“Approximately 150 megameters off the surface of Rothana, where currently there rests a Kuat Drive Yards mobile proving platform. We are going to dock, and deliver the data tape which I, heh, liberated from Sienar Fleet Systems. After we have done this, and been paid handsomely for it, we will then travers away from the proving platform, far enough to be blocked from sight by the planet itself, and then land. We will then infiltrate a top secret KDY skunkwerks and steal their protected IP and abscond.”

B-111 waited for a response. He waited for K-3NT to ignore him and initiate the jump to hyperspace. He waited, it seemed, in vain. He turned to find K-3NT sitting still, his hands hovering just above the controls. “Enty, what are you waiting for?”

K-3NT looked at B-111. “I’m just processing. It is unexpected to me that you have even a semblance of a plan.”

“I’ve been executing a plan this whole time! Being marooned on that moon, needing to slap The Runner together, finding you, these were slight detours to that plan, but we are finally now back on that plan.”

“Huh,” was all K-3NT said to this. He reached past B-111 and cranked the jump lever. The Runner shuddered and jumped into hyperspace.

It was a long jump, during which B-111 stayed ready for K-3NT to ask questions. But K-3NT remained silent. Hours passed. B-111 became worried. Why was K-3NT not saying anything? Was he facing his emancipation purely within his own mind? B-111 wondered, dimly, if he had pushed too far and in the wrong direction earlier. But he held to his position, K-3NT would have to ask him for help to get it.

When they dropped back out of hyperspace, the thought of K-3NTs silence fled B-111s mind. It was time for action, time for focus. 

To the ships starboard loomed Rothana, imposing and orange. It almost looked like geonosis from this angle. Floating right in front of them was the proving platform. A large orbital facility that Kuat Drive Yards used to test their propulsion systems in zero gravity. 

B-111 took the controls and taxied them cautiously towards the platform. He pressed a button on the instrument cluster, “Proving platform, this is datahound, inbound with a delivery.”

“What are you doing?” Asked K-3NT, finally breaking his silence.

“What do you think, Enty? They aren’t just going to let us land. I previously arranged all this, datahound is my codename for this operation.”

“Operation? One-Eleven, we’re data thieves, not special agents.”

“Enty, a warrior does not allow his enemies to assign him his titles, that is the path.”

K-3NT was not allowed to retort, as the reply came over the comlink at that moment. “Datahound… you’re late, can you please verify you have not been compromised?”

“Oh, wonderful!”

“Quiet, Enty!” B-111 pressed the comlink button once more. “The item was, shall we say, stuck in shipping longer than I expected, and a bit harder to find.”

“We don’t want excuses, verify your safe code, dadahound.”

K-3NT leaned forwards, putting his head right next to B-111s, “what is the safe code? Should I have known the safe code? I think I should have.”

“Shh,” B-111 said, waving K-3NT back. He turned back to the instrument cluster. “Mon Cala; thirteen; halogen; seven; deep water; forty nine; cast ingot; two; harvest field; nine; vacuum. Confirm?”

B-111 waited for what seemed a tad longer than strictly necessary before, “confirm. Proceed to hangar bay.”

“Enty, when I said ‘let me do the talking’ I really meant it. I’ve been planning this operation for almost a year; I have contingencies, I have contingencies for contingencies; so if you don’t quite know what is happening, follow my lead.”

“I would have appreciated being brought up to speed, One-Eleven.”

B-111 was surprised to hear K-3NTs tone wasn’t sulky, just matter-of-fact. Also, he was stung by the correctness of this statement. “I am sorry Enty, I… hadn’t thought about any of that. I will fully brief you in the future.”

“Thank you,” said K-3NT, “Now let me get us landed. You’ll probably make them even more on edge if you land like a ‘slagfoot’ as usual.”

B-111 shrugged, sitting back in his seat. “Suit yourself, Enty.”

Tool Tactics

Knave 2e is a classless game with no skills or abilities. Everything is diegetic - if one of your two careers was that you were a sailor, it's safe to assume you're good at sea stuff, ropes, etc.

I like to distance myself from the 5e playstyle, but I gotta admit, feats and classes are a guilty pleasure. It's not great when your entire character sheet is full of abilities you need to navigate (and it's good to avoid the pitfall of if you DON'T have the lockpick feat, you CAN'T attempt lockpicking). But just a little something you can pop off is fun. I imagined these like commander abilities in wargaming, which are always limited. When to use it as a limited resource is a tactical decision, which is what games are all about.

So this is my attempt to make the Knave-iest feats I could. I tied them to tools, because I wanted the focus to stay on inventory management and the idea that you have practiced with a particular tool. It's also quite interesting if something threatens to take away the item you need to use your tool tactic. I have a player that's specialising in the Rations tool tactic and he's just become a total glutton, he bought a whole cartful of rations to start on this next quest. The quest of which the first stage is travelling through a swamp.

These would also be an elegant way to introduce races into Knave. Dwarves might pick a weapons tactic (especially axes), elves an esoteric one, halflings a tools one.

Oh, and there's a THIRD feature these are replacing: weapon qualities. I'm kinda fascinated by how different medieval weapons have different uses in (and out of) warfare, and this is my way to bring some of that to the table without going all Gygax on this (i.e. making this game a simulation with rules for absolutely everything).

Oh and a FOURTH thing these are a stand-in for: BX utility spells that don't have a parallel in Knave. Wizards need to do things like identify magic items, resist elements, or have a reliable attacks. This brings some of those back.

Anyway, first off some thoughts about how I went about writing these, and would go about writing more. Then d20 Tool Tactics.

Tool Tactics

At character creation, choose one Tool Tactic that you can use once per day, if you have the tool. Add the tool to your inventory if you don’t have it.

Gain a new Tool Tactic when you Level Up. Take the same Tool Tactic again to get more uses per day.

Custom Tool Tactics

Working with the GM, you can create a custom Tool Tactic if you wish. The GM writes the final draft of the Tool Tactic, and has licence to tweak it between sessions if it’s too strong or weak.

Guidelines for writing a good tool tactic:

Require an item.

Always gives a positive benefit when used. No chance of total failure.

Not be something that can be naturally attempted, e.g. blinding someone with pocket sand. A good Tool Tactic allows you to break the rules of the game system in some way.

Create, not eliminate, opportunities for creative problem solving.

You might decide to tweak an existing Tool Tactic. (e.g., Fire is Alive could work for poison damage instead)

d20 Tool Tactics

Weapon

1. Axes are Tools. Quickly smash open a wooden door, treasure chest, or intricate mechanism with an axe. Decrease damage suffered from the immediate consequences by 5.

2. Blunt Trauma Knockout. When you or an ally kills a nearby foe, use this tactic to rush in with a club or staff to render them safely unconscious for d6×10 minutes, instead of dead.

3. Bows are for Hunting. After rolling a ranged weapon attack*, hit or miss: add +5 to hit and +d6 damage. (*bows, crossbows, slings)

4. Flails Swing Back Around. After rolling a chain weapon attack*, hit or miss: add +5 to hit and +d6 damage. (*flails, whips, nunchucks)

5. Maces Crack Armour. When your mace or warhammer hits a foe protected by rigid plating* reduce their AC by d6, to a minimum of 12. (*knights, robots, giant crabs)

6. Polearms Hold the Line. After hitting an enemy with a polearm, use this tactic to keep that enemy at bay. On its next turn it has -5 to hit with all melee attacks.

7. Shield Wall. Use your shield to reduce the damage of an attack you take by d6. Doesn't work against area affects  (splashes, explosions, dragon breath).

8. Swords are Heroic. Make 2 bonus attacks with a sword, targeting two different enemies.

Tools

9. Backpacks are Spacious. Flashback to a memory of the last time you went shopping. You can buy one item from d100 Tools (Knave p. 39), adding it to your inventory as if you are just now remembering your purchase.

10. Boots Fare Well. During overland travel, scout ahead in sturdy footwear, returning in 4 hours with news of the hex ahead and d6 rations.

11. Breakfast is Vital. Eat a ration for breakfast to give yourself +d4 HP for the day.

12. Cloaks Break your Shape. Whilst sitting still wrapped in a cape of a colour matching your environment, fool d6 pairs of eyes into mistaking you for inanimate scenery.

13. Herbs Ease the Pain. Use a healing kit stocked with bandages, splints, and medicinal herbs to heal someone for d6 HP and restore consciousness.

14. Knives are for Sneakin'. Produce a knife you've had hidden upon your person this whole time. Its first attack roll has +d6 to hit.

15. Music Soothes. d6 HD worth of creatures listening to you play a musical instrument have their strongest emotions dulled for 10 minutes.

16. Ropes Hold Fast. If you take damage from falling a dangerous height, use a rope to somehow reduce the damage to just d6, even if there are spikes at the bottom.

Esoteric

17. Fire is Alive, and it Can be Bargained With. Wielding a burning torch, gain resistance to fire for 10 minutes. Mundane fire: 0 damage. Magical fire: -5 damage.

18. Hag Stones Reveal Magic. Look through a stone with a natural-formed hole in it to identify magical items, reveal hidden curses, or see the invisible for 10 minutes.

19. Wands are for Wizard Duels. With a reactionary flick of a wand, nullify an incoming unfriendly spell. You must declare this before the spell takes effect or rolls to save against it are made. If the spell's level is equal or exceeds your INT, win an INT contest against the caster to nullify.

20. Wands Cast Magic Missile. Range 120', auto-hit, d6 damage.

[aemoglobin]

had a wonderful conversation with my roomie, iscah, last night about various series we would and wouldn't like to be isekai-d into and honestly we came up with some gems.

agreed that game of thrones is generally The Worst series to get isekai-d to mostly because neither of us really know Anything about the series as a whole but also because in general it fucking sucks. your safe choices are the Church (if you're a woman) and Academia (if you're a man) but even then we're not sure if that's entirely the case! i'm entering their equivalent of the catholic church and making it Gay. the ice zombies and dragons are NOT my problem!!

star wars would suck bc the chances of ending up a slave are just way too high and if you're force-sensitive oh boy. oh man. there's generally no safe era but old republic or the eu (may she rest in peace) are probably the safest eras if you're not on a planet that is plot-relevant!!!

star trek is the easy win bc it's more or less utopia. you don't have to do anything you don't want to. personally i would be committing lesbian atrocities in the enterprise's holodeck as the episode's B-plot for nearly every episode i show up in, i am the most polarizing female character in stng, simultaneously setting the development of lesbians in tv back two decades and also doing more for lesbians in tv than anyone has ever done before and will ever do again.

both agreed that hp is also easy-peasy since it's just modern england with extra steps. and also if you left england you could do whatever you want bc no other countries were involved with all of that.

retail worker voltron au but i'm the retail worker who got isekai-d to the planet Target (this is an entire planet that's just Target. like how Coruscant in star wars is a whole city) and then i am so fed up with this job i commit unionization (i don't know anything about unionizing a workplace let alone a planet) and take over the work force. workers of the galaxy unite, you have nothing to lose but your chains etc

the alternate to THAT au is getting transmigrated into a middle management galra army officer where my job is still basically the same (logistics and maybe working at the bx) but now i have a much higher chance of dying on the job (the chances of dying on the job at Target are low but never zero btw). this is NOT the type of catgirl isekai i was thinking of and i want a refund!!

[bear-cubs-art-things]

Oh yeah here's this post on g&b character trivia I never got to post 💀

Little shits for you little shits /affectionate

Blue

his voice is a little deep for a bean like him, but he got that from his father

He actually has retractable claws like a cat! You know the claws that rare bowgarts have on their toes? He has those! But they're retractable and are hidden most of the time. Usually he won't use his claws often, unless he's like climbing a cliff face or a tree.

He got tiny ears- think epic bowgart but hidden :>

His "hair" is in a mullet-esque hairstyle, mostly due to not keeping up on haircuts. You can actually braid his hair in the back it's so long!

Twig

The stuff covering his whole head is waxy leaf foliage. The same leaves make up his mane (the green leaves around his neck).

The leaves surrounding his eyes are the equivalent to long lashes :) its a rather feminine quality for a male shrubb.

bro is waterproof /j. But with the whole waxy leaves thing, water slips off his head and mane easily. That said, he dries very quickly (at least his head XD) (lmao twigphobic water)

He does have the yellow flowers on his sides, they just haven't bloomed yet.

Even tho it's not shown through his dialogue, he has a slight accent, similar to a NYC accent.

Cozmo

While she looks fluffy and warm, she actually feels cold and wet to the touch (even tho she isn't. And think ectoplasm).

Her body is a reflection of a starry night. When she moves, the reflection changes.

Since she doesn't have a real neck, it's impossible to decapitate her (but why would you, first of all-).

Jadau

Hes very good with children- they just run right up to him! (In a babysitter like way)

He has not sworn a swear word in his life. Continuing that thought, he hasn't gotten mad or angry either (he's so innocent and honestly dumb enough to not get mad. I'm sorry to say but there's just how entbrats work XD)

Hes actually a little shorter than average entbrats.

Lily

the bandages on her hands are completely accessory, as is the bandage on her eye. The only reason she keeps it on is because of the caregivers constant nagging about it (it's drilled into her brain so much she keeps it on out of habit)

her hair is longer than it actually seems. Much curlier too.

Gunna add this here bx I can't find a voice claim for her yet- she has a soft voice, but even so she can be big with it (if that makes any sense).

Underneath her baggy clothing, she's actually of the tiny and petite build. She's a little bony, but that's primarily due to her poor caregivers at the House. (Dw, she's eating very well now)

Tweedledee

He can actually talk, he just chooses to make random noises most of the time.

When he bounces around, he bounces around. I have no clue what that thing is made of to make him so godforsaken bouncy.

Licking is his way of giving affection, since he has no hands or arms in which to give affection with (I mean he's a child so it kinda makes sense-)

Surprising as it is, dee is actually two years older than lily. And I say surprising bc he does not act like 10 years old (at this point in time lily is 9 but still. Two years).

And that's it for now XD I might make a part 2 with some other characters but I wanted to get the main cast out first!

There’s a part missing that it’s them asking for people to record them doing challenge and put on social media tagging them.

Roberto: (Jorge is ready), and the dancing crew too. Let’s go for it, and the challenge starts now

Jorge: COME ON! COME ON!

The guy hugging Jorge: the best, the best

Jorge Blimey!

Jorge: Very good! So good!

People: cheers!

Roberto: Damn champion! A big round of applauses to Jorge Lorenzo and for the crew of dancers, guys and girls. Thanks to alls of you. Noe. Jorge Lorenzo.

Jorge: Let me take a breath for a bit

Roberto: what’s happening in here?

Jorge: That I have my heart

Roberto: oh God. A dancer has born, or not?

People shouting: yes

Roberto: all done. Come with me

Boris: a star

Roberto: oh you forget (the trophy), not that is his do you wanna.. here.Take it that is heavy, take it that’s heavy How?

Jorge: I have the heart that.. That Malaysia comes to win my first championship at 190 (that sentence was difficult as Jorge is been over dramatic and confusing as hell)

Roberto: a bestiality. I love it

Pilar: so

Boris: Lovely

Pilar: you are putting things very dark because we have hear Noe, the choreographer saying ‘well we did took him out of his confort zone’. She said it in a diplomatic way 

Roberto: yes

Pilar: in away that they weren’t trusting you.

Jorge: I swear

Pilar: I was impressed. Moreover, you mixed different styles inside 1 choreography and I’m amazed with you, truthfully.

Jorge: no, no, without a doubt Pilar

Boris: (he)) impresses. With all the freshness

Jorge: it was. It was the the toughest challenge. Noe deserve a pay raise because I did x5/x6

Roberto: and all her team

Jorge: in hours compared with the other challenges. At first it looked impossible, that I couldn’t do it. It’s 2 minutes with a lot of sections and so but slowly I was picking from here and there

Pilar: How is it the moonwalk? Because you managed to do the moon walk. Can you do it again?

Jorge: well

Pilar: well, well. You won me

Roberto: he already got you

Jorge: no in here slides and

Juan: well

Jorge: and gets grip

Roberto: from one dancer to another, Juan del Val

Juan: no is true that this show tries to do that, take you out of your comfort context and see unbelievable things  and is see Jorge Lorenzo dancing. , the moment of confession has come, I wasn’t betting on you and you surprised me a lot. It was a big show, so congratulations. I don’t know which one is going to be your score but the truth is that you worked really hard

Jorge: Thanks

Roberto: Santiago

Santiago: the truth is, hat the key in here is take people out of their comfort zone. If I’m going to be taken out of my confort one, I prefer what Jorge did rather than Rosa’s (she was in a plastic bx filling with water and she had to stop the flow putting plugs into the pipes. But there was 3 types of plus, and she didn’t know which one was each. Also the more she closed, the greater the pressure on the other points) *mumbles something*

Roberto: we are taking notes

Santiago: having sad that, I was reminded, and I don’t know why, of the hooligans and Malaluf a bit for the theme, but it was amazing. I saw him pretty focussed. We were joking before saying, Jorge is so like that, taht for sure he will do the robot, and out of the blue he did it. So *everybody laughs*

Jorge: 5 seconds though

Santiago: it was our prediction, very well

Roberto: Mateo

Mateo (Dani Mateo, he is the guest judge. He is a comedia, TV and radio host for other channels from the same company as Antena3.): Guy.. Ah.. It had a lot of merit because we are talking about, we are not talking about a celebrity/star, we are talking about a legend. This gentlemen that is in here is a legend in his (sport), and that he had the sense of humour to come in here and dance with that... with that sense... with that farce (in the sense of wanting to fool around, party and be fun), with those looks at the camera, Jorge. Er.. *I think he says something related to one of his parodies, but I can’t understand him*

Jorge: It was difficult

Mateo: you had it well hidden

Jorge: I enjoyed it a lot

Mateo: Spectacular. Look I going to say that Jorge was the first impact I had. The one looking like a biker  today, was me. You know?

Jorge: it’s true

Mateo: they put me as a rider. I went out of the dressing room and I went out me, as a rider and I saw Jorge Lorenzo *Jorge says something like Batista? but I’m not completely sure* bailando una coreografia. This show is done by... *I can’t really understand as people is laughing and thei’s noise over Mateo’s voice*

Roberto: what’s happening in here? *laughing*

Mateo: what the hell is going on?

Roberto: one last appreciation. Eh we saw Valentino Rossi ...

Boris: the Rossi moment

Roberto: that moment was epic

Someone: marvellous

Roberto: we are sending him a ‘hello’ to Valentino Rossi as he will be watching us. You had a good relationship?

Mateo: he doesn’t miss one

Jorge: he is a joker, a joker

Roberto: you are buddies now, now?

Jorge: yes. When we where competing in the same class we where arch-enemies ands there was... was

Roberto: yes there was *hand gesture indicating contact*

Jorge: but now, he invited me to his ranch, we did the race of champion together and there’s a good feeling now

Flo: when he invites you to his ranch again, you bring us

Roberto: a kiss to Valentino Rossi. We invite him to ‘El desafío.

Flo: to a BBQ, with some ribs

Roberto: Jorge Lorenzo, congrats, well done. You can take a sit with your mates

I did no record it, but Jorge got euphoric and hugged by the other contestants. We was also proud of his show
