𝙗𝙡𝙤𝙨𝙨𝙤𝙢 || dieter bravo x camgirl!reader (part three; finale)

read 𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙦𝙪𝙚𝙩 (part one) and 𝙗𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙢 (part two) first!

𝙨𝙪𝙢𝙢𝙖𝙧𝙮 || he can't believe you're really here— now he has to just try not to blow it... figuratively speaking.

𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙙 𝙘𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙩 || 5.7k

𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨 || smut (18+ only; unprotected sex, oral f receiving, multiple orgasms/overstimulation [for reader], creampie), sex work (however dieter technically does not pay the reader for sex, just her flight to visit him c:), mentions of covid-19 pandemic, soft dieter being soft, emotions!! lots of 'em!, extremely sappy/fluffy ending (oops?)

He wasn’t sure who he was more worried would get recognized: you, or himself.

It was his idea to go out to dinner first, in fact he’d insisted on it.  Going out to dinner in times like these was a bit iffy, but thankfully the place had outdoor dining and you’d both already tested negative— for more than just the virus…

It was a beautiful evening to eat outside, but it made him even more anxious that any passerby might know him either of you from your respective works; so far, no one had said anything though.

As he watched you take a sip of your sparkling water, he realized that he hadn’t had a crush on anyone in a long, long time.  He hadn’t had sweating palms and a racing heart and a dry throat over someone since probably high school.  By the time he was in his BFA program, he was so focused on his craft that he didn’t find himself worrying much about that sort of stuff— and if he wanted to get someone into bed, it didn’t seem like much to stress over.

This was different.  This wasn’t an issue of getting you to sleep with him, although he certainly hoped you wouldn’t renege on the intentions you’d stated before— this was about getting you to like him, maybe even (as he would’ve put it back when he last had a crush) ‘like like’ him.

“Was your flight okay?” Dieter asked compulsively to fill the silence, proud of himself for thinking of something to say.

“Still good,” you nodded.  “You asked me that when we first got here.”

“Right,” he sighed, “sorry.  I forgot.”

“It’s fine,” you laughed, setting your glass down on the white tablecloth.  “I’m nervous, too.  But in a good way.”

He smiled.  “Yeah— I’m just really excited that you’re here.  And it’s still kind of weirding me out that you’re… you know, real.”

“It’s definitely trippy,” you agreed.  “When you see somebody over video chat a lot, they look sort of surreal in real life.”

“Are you… speaking from experience?” he wondered, lowering his voice a bit.

“Yeah— but not this kind of experience,” you clarified.  “I’ve never met anyone from my work before— I told you that.”

“Right, yeah— I believe you,” he assured.  “Have you ever flown overseas just to meet someone before?”

You laughed, looking down for a second.  “No, I haven’t,” you answered, “but this isn’t the first time I’ve been, you know, wined and dined by somebody…”

“Well, I figured this wasn’t your first date,” Dieter scoffed.

“No, I mean— well, yeah,” you hummed, “but I, um… before I started camming, I was actually a sugar baby.  So I’ve had my flights paid for before, is what I mean.”

He widened his eyes a little, but nodded— hoping to look more intrigued than overwhelmed.  “Oh, wow, that’s— I don’t know a lot about that, honestly…”

“I was about to ask if you’d ever had a sugar baby before,” you smirked, “guess not.”

“Yeah, no,” he shook his head, “not my— not for me.  Not before, I mean— is that what you want?”

He got a little nervous that you would only want that— a relationship built on money.  He was more than happy to drop some cash on you— he’d offered to pay for everything for you on this trip, it only seemed fair when you had to come all this way— but he got a sick feeling in his stomach imagining that that was all you wanted from him.

But then again, he just said he didn’t know a lot about it, maybe it wasn’t like that… he just felt like it was another performance, and that was the last thing he needed from anybody.

“O-oh, no— not with us,” you answered quickly, blinking a few times, and he sighed with relief.  “I mean, it was nice— it wasn’t all old guys and crazy finance douchebags like people think,” you explained with a laugh, “but it was… it was hard work, in its own way.  ‘Cause another misconception is that it’s sex in exchange for money and gifts— it’s not, not the way I did it at least.  Those guys wanted the ‘girlfriend experience’... that’s the most profitable thing, whether it’s online or in-person.”

Dieter cleared his throat; can’t blame them, I guess…

“But, you know, they didn’t have the time for a genuine relationship, so it was like giving that emotion but never receiving it,” you continued, “and that was exhausting.  Not to mention most of them had other girls involved… I’m not a jealous person, but you know, that’s obviously not what I want for myself in the end.  So I switched to camming, worked out well with the pandemic and everything…”

“I’m sure,” Dieter agreed.  “So, um… maybe this is kind of a forward question, for a first date, but… what do you want for yourself in the end?”

You seemed to get a little more shy, then.  “Well…” you began softly.  “Despite what you’ve seen me do, I’m a pretty traditional girl.  I want a serious relationship, I want a lifelong commitment, I want… a family, probably.”

It was hard not to feel a lump in his throat when you said that, even if his emotions were conflicted at best.

“I mean— that doesn’t have to be you,” you rushed out, “I’m just saying… that’s the end goal.  I have a lot of time for that, in my opinion.”

“No, right,” he agreed.  “So then, I guess the obvious question— and probably a much easier one— is what’s your goal for tonight?”

You raised an eyebrow.  “I already told you my goal for tonight.”

He swallowed thickly.  He remembered your last message before getting on the plane pretty clearly: boarding now. hopefully i can get some sleep but i’m pretty wired ngl. just thinking about getting there and jumping your bones. i want you to fuck me so hard i can’t walk (or think) straight.

“Honestly, I wouldn’t have minded at all if you just took me straight to the hotel,” you smirked, “but dinner is nice.”

“Yeah, I— I thought about it,” he admitted.  “But… can I be honest?”

“Always.”

“I wanted this to be more than just… that,” he said.  He wasn’t sure if it was a good idea to tell you, but he hoped it wouldn’t bother you too much.  Thankfully, the gentle smile creeping up your face seemed to indicate that it wasn’t particularly offensive.

“So, what do you want this to be?” you pressed.

“We can figure that out as we go,” he offered, “we should get to know each other better— for real.  But that night that we stayed up until three just talking after what was supposed to be a one-hour call—”

He saw you smile even wider as you remembered it.

“I haven’t felt close to anyone like that in—” he began, but it all stopped as the waiter suddenly appeared from thin air.

“Your tortellini, ma’am,” he said as he set your plate down in front of you, and you offered an intrigued ‘ooh’ as you examined the dish, “and your langoustines alla busara,” he finished as he set Dieter’s food down.

“Thank you,” you offered the server with a polite nod, but Dieter could only muster a hum— he was a little miffed that the guy had managed to interrupt such an important moment.

“Anything else I can get for you two?” he asked, looking back and forth.

You looked over at him to check first, before shaking your head and replying, “No, I think we’re alright.”

“Excellent,” he beamed.  “And— can I just say one thing?”

You both paused, not sure what to make of that.  “Uh, sure,” Dieter decided, since the waiter seemed to be looking at him.

“I loved you in Hunger Strike,” he said excitedly; Dieter tensed up, wanting to look at you to gauge your reaction but suddenly too afraid of what he’d find.

“Oh, thank you,” he mumbled out, “that… means a lot.”

“I mean, it really moved me,” the waiter insisted, even though Dieter just wanted this interaction to end promptly.  “You were so— I’m really not trying to intrude, but is there any way I can get your autograph?”

Then he looked at you, and he couldn’t quite read the expression on your face— amusement, maybe, with a hefty dose of discomfort as well.  You looked away and took a long sip of your drink.  “Uhh,” Dieter choked, looking back at his adoring fan, “you’ll get my autograph when you bring the check.”

Seeming to realize that he had gone too far, the young man straightened up and cleared his throat.  “Right, uh— enjoy your meal.”

Scampering away, he left the both of you behind, along with all that tension he’d created.  How come he got a escape a situation that was his own fault, and Dieter was stuck here wondering if you would be upset that he didn’t tell you who he really was— or if you’d reveal you were a crazy stalker-fan the whole time— or if knowing he was famous would change your interest in being with him (if you even had any)?

“I’m… sorry about that,” Dieter finally offered to you, and you started to smile.

“Don’t be,” you chuckled, “it was kinda funny.  Do you usually react so… badly, to that kind of thing?”

He coughed a bit.  “No, I— are you not…?  Do you know—?”

“I saw the movie, Hector, I don’t live under a rock,” you admitted.

“Oh.”  Not sure what to say next, he blurted out the first thing that came to mind: “What did you think of it?”

Shrugging, you answered with a simple ‘eh’.  There was a pause before he began to crack up— and then you did, too. 

“So, I’ve been worrying about all you finding out about my career for nothing?” he assumed, and you nodded.

“I didn’t recognize you right away,” you explained, “but I put it together before we planned all this.”

“Why didn’t you say anything?” he wondered.

“I mean, I didn’t think I needed to, really,” you shrugged again.  “It’s just your job.  I was ready to talk about it if you brought it up— if you wanted to vent about work or something— but you never did, so I figured it must not be relevant.”

“Does it… change anything between us?” he asked nervously.  “Do you feel weird about going out with a movie star?”

“Mm, I don’t know about star…” you smirked, making him laugh again— and that was the part that was the same as always.  You still made him laugh, and now that the two of you were really talking again, it felt just like that night that you talked for hours— but even better.

When the plates were cleaned and the bill was paid, the two of you walked back to his hotel— he’d picked this place in part because he could see it from his window.  But that brief walk back was one of his favorite parts of the night so far, only because he’d slipped his arm around you, and you leaned into him: in that moment, he felt more normal than he had in a long time— and yet, at the same time, special in a way he’d never felt before.

~

“I tried to clean up in here, but—”

“Isn’t there housekeeping for that?” you wondered.  

“Yeah, but… I’ve had the ‘do not disturb’ sign up for the past week,” Dieter explained.  “Didn’t want anyone to come in while we were talking…”

“Right,” you smiled, finishing your examination of the room and turning to face him again.  The door shut on its own; you were looking at him with every light in the room reflected in your eyes.

He stepped closer to you, and wrapped his arms around you, and— why were his palms so clammy?  “I don’t think I’ve been this nervous to kiss someone since… since maybe my first ever kiss,” he recalled, and you laughed softly.

“Yeah, me either,” you whispered back, and he ran his hand over the curve of your hip.  “Who was your first kiss?”

“Uh, Sandy something… Brendan, I think— no, Brennan… Sandy Brennan.  We sat next to each other in History class in seventh grade,” he recalled.  “What about you?”

“I mean, unless you count a peck or two from my kindergarten boyfriend,” you chuckled, “my first real kiss wasn’t until high school— Gregory Cho.  But I wasn’t that nervous… actually, I was sort of ready to get it over with.”

“There was someone I was really nervous to kiss in high school, too,” he recalled, “but that was… different.”

“Who was it?”

That name was much easier to recall.  “Alex Brooks.”

“Was she super pretty?  Or popular?” you pressed, wondering what had him so nervous, what made it different.

“Both,” Dieter replied quickly.  “And… he was captain of the basketball team.”

You didn’t react strongly, but he still noticed it.

“Is that—?” he began to ask.

“He sounds like a real catch,” you smiled.  “Was he a good kisser?”

“Yeah,” Dieter laughed, “for a high schooler.  I guess things don’t feel as special now as they did back then— just some decent making-out in someone’s dad’s truck was the coolest thing, now it’s like— it’s all right there, you don’t have to…” he trailed off, but started a new sentence.  “I mean, even you— I’ve seen every part of you, but I just really met you for the first time.  And somehow I’m so afraid to kiss you.”

You were still smiling, but it changed, and you reached up to rest your hand on the back of his neck; it made him shiver in the best way.  “If you’re afraid, then it must still be pretty special.”

You kissed him, after all that; he would’ve felt bad for making you wait, if he wasn’t so fully engrossed in kissing you back and pulling you closer and breathing in deeply against your skin.  

For a long time, that was all it was— just one, amazing kiss.  Just his lips on yours and the gentle dance of trying to go further without going to far; just your hands holding tightly onto his shoulders as he gripped your waist through the dress.

You started to pull him across the room by his shirt— towards the bed— and broke away to speak; he tried to chase your lips for more, but stopped when you bit your lip and rested a finger on his chin.

“You haven’t seen every part of me,” you corrected him— even though he barely fucking remembered saying that after a kiss like that.  “I mean, my body, sure, but… not who I really am.”

“Then show me that,” he pleaded.  “That’s what I want— you, everything.”

You smiled wide and kissed him again, the two of you toppling onto the bed together.  

He’d been thinking about doing this since the moment he saw you: pulling up the bottom of your dress so he could pet your thighs, enamored with the smoothness of your skin.  “Baby,” he purred when he caught sight of your panties— what little there was of them.  The lace just gave him a glimpse of what was beneath, a tease of your perfect little cunt.

“God, I need you so bad,” you groaned as you pulled him down for another kiss; he’d been hard since you wrapped your arms around him, and he could swear he was already throbbing by the time he rocked his hips against yours.  “Fuck— feels even bigger than it looked…”

“Maybe your computer screen wasn’t big enough,” he joked, making you laugh lightly before another moan came out when he rocked down on you again.  “What do you want, beautiful?”

“You… you know what I want…” you panted, wrapping your legs around his waist.

“Humor me,” he encouraged, moving in to kiss your neck— and loving the way you squirmed under him.

“Want— want you to fuck me,” you whimpered, “want you to make me— fuck— yours…”

He groaned deeply as he rutted his hips into yours harder, finally taunting you to the point that you had to reach down and start opening his pants.  “So eager,” he mocked playfully, as if he wasn’t going to ravage you the second you were done getting his cock out.

In fact, he almost tore your dress as he pulled it down to expose your chest, barely finding the time to appreciate the view of your tits before latching his mouth onto them.  “Oh fuck,” you gasped, and he smiled around the pert nipple in his mouth; these had seemed sensitive from the way you toyed with them as you touched yourself, but it was heaven on earth to confirm his suspicion himself.

“Want me to make you mine?” he prompted again, voice muffled by your delicate skin in his mouth, and you whimpered as you nodded.

“Yes— please—” you begged.

“Not sure I can do that,” he warned, and you gave him a confused look.  “You’re already mine, you told me yourself.”

You giggled, arching your back slightly as the tip of his tongue drew circles on you.  "I did say that, didn't I?"

"Mhm," he confirmed.  "Hard to forget."

"Well, m'still yours," you offered, "but I need you right now, I'll do— fuck, anything, just—"

"You don't need to do anything," he assured, looking up at you as he moved his mouth from your breast down a little lower, "just lay back and I'm gonna take care of you."

You bit your lip and nodded.

"Second I saw you I wanted to kiss you all over," he sighed.

"Well, I've got a couple ideas of where you can start," you smirked.

And yes, he would love to start there, but he needed to do his best not to rush this.  So, smiling up at you first, he began his journey.  His lips and tongue explored your body on his way down: a kiss here, a lick there, a playful bite when he felt extra naughty.  "You're so fucking beautiful," he mumbled against you.

"Yeah?  You too," you sighed.

He didn't think of himself like that— handsome, maybe, certainly aware of his better angles, but beautiful felt strange.  But he liked it, especially when you said it.  Especially when you said it while he was slotting his face between your legs.

It was even prettier up close, and the smell was fucking intoxicating: tangy and musky and sweet, heady, earthy, human.  And he knew you'd taste even better.

So he dove right in.  Maybe he should've started with your clit, that would've been the obvious choice, but his instincts led him to just slide his tongue right into your hole.  If nothing else, it certainly seemed to take you off guard, and you gasped as you grabbed onto his hair with both hands.

"Baby, fuck, that's— oh god, you can't imagine how many times I thought of this," you admitted, breathing heavy already.  He smiled against you, then gave you one big lick from the furthest down his tongue could reach all the way to the very top— all while holding fierce eye contact with you.  "Fu-uuuuck," you choked, dropping your head back just as your eyes rolled up.  "That's so… just do that again, please…"

He did it a few more times, noticing the way you seemed to get more impatient with each one, until your hips were chasing after his tongue.  "Stay still, baby, don't you trust me to do this right?" he purred, holding tighter on your hips.

"Yeah, I just— been so long," you whimpered.

He just did his best to find what made you scream the loudest and keep doing that— you were so sensitive, he just had to press his tongue down flat on your clit and move it in circles and you’d start shaking and sobbing and begging.  He moaned into you every time you tugged on his hair, having to rock his hips against the bed to appease his attention-deprived cock.

"You're… so amazing," you panted, "I— fuck! Oh god, I can't remember the last time someone—"

You never finished your thought, because he started fucking you with his tongue and you were too busy moaning his name, but he couldn't believe what a waste it was that nobody was eating this pussy on a regular basis.

"Gonna— oh fuck, yes, gonna come," you warned, "I… I'm gonna come so fucking hard…"

You started shaking, and he started fighting to keep you as still as he could so his work wouldn't be interrupted.  For a second he wondered if you were already coming or not— but then you made this noise, and your cunt clamped down on his tongue, and you cried out his name; it was perfect, it was the most beautiful moment he could ever imagine.

When it became too much, you went from tugging his hair to pushing him away with it, and he grinned up at you with a breathy laugh.  “Fuck, baby,” you whimpered, and he saw the tear streaks on your temples and cheeks.  He traced one with his thumb before kissing you again— deep and hungry, letting you taste yourself on his tongue.

He hummed when your hands reached down to work on getting his pants off— eager and shaky, he certainly related to that.  As soon as your hand wrapped around his cock, he moaned, just from that.  He was almost embarrassed about it, until you bit his lip in playful encouragement.  "Does that feel good?" you purred.

"Yeah— your hands are better than mine," he laughed breathlessly.  

"How about this?" you raised an eyebrow, swiping your thumb over his slit, and he groaned as he rocked into your touch.

"God, baby…" he groaned.  As good as it felt, he found the strength to grab you by both your wrists and pin them down by your head.  You grinned, struggling just a bit, and moaned as he slid his cock against your soaking pussy.

“Don’t tease me,” you begged, “feels like I’ve been waiting forever.”

But he wasn’t teasing you— he was psyching himself up.

Believe it or not, he actually felt pretty nervous about this part.  Not for a lack of experience— for the entirely opposite reason.  Dieter had been with a lot of people, and for the most part, it was all… the same.  It all blended together— he only remembered those people from when he was a kid because he was a kid, and his romantic encounters were so few and far between.  He could remember details of his various partners from the last few years— Crystal who had a clit piercing, Marvin who begged to be choked, Cameron who seemed to enjoy giving him a blowjob even more than he enjoyed receiving it— but this, the actual sex, it was generally pretty interchangeable.  

So, he was worried that after all that build-up, after all the yearning and fantasizing and talking, that this would be the end of it being special— and you would just turn into a hook-up with a slightly more interesting backstory than the rest.  

As valid as that fear was, it was far from enough to stop him now, not when you were looking up at him and tightening your fists as he kept you pinned and silently begging for him with your eyes.

He had to let go of one of your hands to guide himself inside, but he interlaced the other with your fingers while he did it— and then, with one strong push, he was fully within you.

“Oh my god,” he gasped, “you feel… different.”

You raised an eyebrow, chuckling a little.  “Uh, different than what?”

Than everyone else.  “I— I don’t know,” he breathed, “I’m not making sense.”

“Not really,” you agreed with a laugh.

“Hard to think straight right now,” he defended.

It wasn’t just that you felt different— it was that this felt different: being with someone he really cared about, that he wanted to impress, that he wanted to see after this was over.

Someone that he never wanted to let go of.

“You feel so fucking perfect,” you whimpered, “fuck, don’t stop— feels so good—”

One of the benefits of making you come on his tongue first was that he knew it wouldn't be that bad if he didn't last too long now— though that wasn't why he did it.  In fact, this was rarely his issue, if anything sometimes he struggled to finish for unclear reasons.

But even if he could get away with finishing quickly, he wanted to make this last as long as he could.  He never wanted this to end, actually.

As he found his pace— not too speedy yet, but with a bit of his eagerness showing— he kissed you again, deeply and hungrily.  He wondered if he'd ever done this before: kissing during sex.  He felt like he probably had, and yet he couldn't remember it— maybe that said more than anything.

This, on the other hand, was very memorable.  He slid his arms under you when your back arched, he held you tight and close and drank in every one of your moans through that kiss.

For how many times he’d pictured fucking you, he never really imagined it like this… and he thought he’d imagined it every way before.  But he realized that he’d mostly imagined it a bit kinker— you riding him, or him fucking you while you were bent over the table in his room, or 69’ing or something.  This was passionate, and sorta slow; this was his hips grinding on yours with every thrust so he could keep rubbing your sore clit; this was making love, he realized— if it wasn’t, he couldn’t imagine what was.

“I— fuck, baby— think I’m gonna come again,” you warned him with the most beautiful whiny sob.

“Fuck, already?” he smiled, and you nodded feverishly.  

“Just… don’t stop, please, just like that— fuuuuck!” you choked, and he gasped every time your walls clenched down on him.

“You’re so fucking perfect, fuck,” he grunted, moving a bit faster and not letting up on the pressure from his pubic bone on your clit, even when you actually screamed under him.  “You’re so amazing, oh god, I—”

He heard it before he said it: I think I love you.  He stopped himself before blurting it out— maybe he’d tell you after, but he wasn’t so far gone to forget that this wasn’t the right time.  You’d think he didn’t really mean it, that it was just the delirium talking from how incredible you felt, but he knew it was so much more than that.

He shut himself up by kissing your neck— not too hard, but plenty to leave a mark, and make you squirm in the process.  Your hands wrapped around his back and your nails dug into his skin, but he couldn’t even feel the pain of it, he couldn’t feel anything but the sticky, resplendent heat of your body.

“So much fucking better than the goddamn dildos,” you said suddenly, and he laughed against your skin.  

“Do you miss all those people watching you come?” he wondered.

“No, fuck no,” you panted, “there’s nobody else but you.”

He couldn’t help but fuck you faster when you said that— you should’ve known better than to stroke his ego that way.

“Fuck!” you sobbed.  “Hector, baby, you’re so— oh god, I don’t know if I can take it—”

“Shh, you can,” he promised, “you can do anything, you can come for me again—”

“Oh fuck, I— I might,” you admitted shakily, “but then I’ll— I’ll fucking pass out or something.”

“No, you’ll be okay,” he promised, cooing at you softly.  “You’ll be so good for me, I know you will— just come for me one more time, baby, tell me what you need to come again.”

“I… just a little time is all I need,” you answered, voice breaking.  “I swear I’ve never— I’m not usually so— fuck, it’s just you—”

“I know,” he assured, loving the way you babbled praises but worried it would distract you from coming again; and if you didn’t soon, there wouldn’t be time before he lost it.  He was already barely able to keep his composure just from how beautiful you looked like this, let alone how you felt.  “I know, just let it happen, I know it’s right there for me— just come for me, beautiful—”

You dragged him down into a sloppy kiss, and he felt it— those incredible pulses inside you, waves of slick coating him until he felt sticky all the way down his thighs; your sobs were more precious than anything he’d ever heard.

“Fuck, that’s good,” he praised, fucking you even faster now as your head fell back limply.  “I can’t h-hold back anymore, I need to—”

“I know,” you said to him this time, “it’s okay, please— want you to…”

“You still— oh my god…” he choked, losing his train of thought for a moment.  “You still want me to come inside you?  Wanna be full?”

“Yes,” you whined, “yes, baby, please— wanna be so full of your come, I want everything—”

"Fuck, okay," he agreed, gasping as he tried to keep up his pace despite the growing pressure inside.  "I'm really fucking close…”

“I’m yours,” you told him again— and then he went from ‘really fucking close’ to ‘already fucking there’.  He came inside you with a long, whimpered groan; his head dropped onto your shoulder while each pump filled you, trying to catch his breath but feeling like he’d never find it again.

Admitting he loved you during sex wasn’t a good idea, but saying it immediately after wasn’t that much of an improvement.  Now, though, he was too exhausted to keep his mouth shut.  “I think I love you,” he blurted out suddenly.

For one incredibly long second, you didn’t react at all.  You looked up at him, and he hesitated to even look back because he didn’t want to see anything less than ecstasy on your face.  “Oh,” you said, “cool.”

He wasn’t sure what reaction he anticipated, good or bad, but it wasn’t that.

“Let me know when you know,” you suggested.

“No!  No— I know,” he insisted, reaching up to hold your face, “I know.  I love you.  I think I did even before you came here, but… it just seemed so crazy.  We don’t know each other as well as we should for that, right?  But I feel it— I feel something that I just can’t explain—”

��Hey, slow down,” you laughed, “I feel it too.”

The way you smiled at him, resting your hand on his chest— was he glowing?  He felt like he was actually glowing.  “Good,” he decided.

“Let’s get to know each other better, then,” you announced.  “Start from the beginning, the whole thing: parents, siblings, school, favorite movies, worst dates, hot dogs or hamburgers—”

“No, you start,” he pouted, “you’re more interesting.”

“Me?  Please, I’m just your average camgirl titty streamer, don’t worry about it,” you scoffed.

“And I’m just some lame old Oscar winner,” he shrugged.

But both of you talked— all night, actually.  You never fell asleep, he was never even that tired— you kept him so full of energy he didn’t even notice how long it had been until the sun started to come up.  And then you kept talking at breakfast.  And then you fucked again, and talked some more after; he knew it had to end, eventually, but he didn’t even want to think about it.  He didn’t want to think about you going home and letting something so perfect end.

He told you just as much on the last night— assuming you didn’t switch your flight home to a later day again.  You’d just been laying in his arms after another bout of passionately desperate fucking, both of you half-asleep but not wanting the separation of even just unconsciousness, and he blurted it out.

“Don’t leave,” he pleaded under his breath.  “I don’t want you to go.”

“I know you don’t,” you returned softly.  

“I don’t want this to end.”

You were quiet for a while, turning over on your side to face him, tracing your fingers over his chest gently.  “It doesn’t have to end, just because I leave,” you mumbled.  “I know it’s crazy, but we can be together, even if we’re not… together.  I mean, I’m certainly not gonna be with anybody else—”

“Me either,” he said quickly, before he could change his own mind with the doubts— the voice in his head that said he could never settle down because he’s too fucked up.  “I only want you.”

“It’ll suck, being far away from each other— but you’ll be back Stateside eventually, right?” you assumed.

“God, I hope so,” he sighed, “if the world doesn’t end.”

“If it does,” you whispered, moving in closer, “I hope it’s tonight.  I wouldn’t wanna be anywhere else but here.”

It was a romantic thought, but as he kissed you, he realized he’d never wanted the world to end less than he did right now.  He never longed for an apocalypse or anything, even on nights that his doubts and anxieties made him yearn for oblivion just for himself, but just now he could’ve cried thinking about everything falling apart tonight.  Whether it be by fiery explosion or a quiet, instant disappearance, he couldn’t let armageddon happen now— now that he had you.  For the first time, he saw himself having a future, in a way he never had before.  Existing as a ‘celebrity’ meant being on the edge of irrelevance at any moment, knowing this could all go away overnight and you’d just be ‘that guy who was in that thing that one time’.  

But this time, he stood on a precipice of something wonderful, of something natural, and it was the most beautifully terrifying unknown.  It was tomorrow.  Tomorrow, you’d get on the plane; tomorrow, you’d leave, because the world wasn’t going to end tonight.  But his life was going to start tonight, and he didn’t have to face it alone anymore.

can i req skz reaction to 9th member drunk gn!reader alcohol made they sensitive, they started to cry and apologized for skills vocal/ rap/ dance with time spent and poor memory but end with apologize for stealing snacks (ΦωΦ)

my english so bad hope u get it (⁠´⁠-⁠﹏⁠-⁠`⁠；⁠)

title -> drunk thoughts or sober words pair -> ot8!skz + 9th member!reader (gender neutral) genre -> angsty at first but fluffy in the end :] | hurt/comfort lowercase intended + no warnings a/n -> MY FIRST REQUEST yippeee, i'm so excited and i hope it meets your expectations<3 if it's not, i can obviously rewrite it! just let me know! also don't be harsh on your english bb, i'm not a native speaker either and i try my best every day for it to be good lmao

i knew as soon as the night began that this wouldn't end well (at least for me). the more we talked and spent time together, the more drinks that were being poured and oh god, did my members change personalities when they drank. of course not wanting to be left behind, i drank as well.

maybe a bit too much? i don't know, i'm not good at keeping track of things when i was in this certain mood. my thoughts started to consume immediately, i wished it would've been just one bad thought that tried to get me but it felt like a million in one moment. the dreaded one was that i did not deserve to be in stray kids with all these talented guys when i was just not in the same lane as them. when chan chose me, i knew i had to give it my all, but now another era coming by soon, all the teasers filmed and ready to go, just looking at them i wondered what was i doing in this group in the first place. 

i didn't want to think it was out of pity.

but sometimes it led me to believe that it was the only coherent thought.

alcohol wasn't for me huh? and just as soon as i'm doubting myself, the conversation turns serious.

"thank you all for being my bandmates, i couldn't ask for a better team." chan said and i bit my lip as i tried to not let my sensitive side take over (mixing with the sadness in my chest). 

"wow our leader is getting sappy again, are we surprised?" minho responded as he mocked him with his tone and chan just pushed him. everyone was in their own world, either talking, drinking even more or just having a good time their own way. i could feel a pair of eyes on me though and it was none other than felix. he followed every move i made and i couldn't even look at him in the eye 'cause i knew i would break down.

that's when he got closer to me, changing seats with changbin and looked at me sincerely with those hopeful eyes of his.

"you know you can talk to me right? i know you're a sensitive kind of drunk." he said trying to lift up my mood and i tried to laugh but it came as a choked out sob. "hey, look at me it's okay just let it out." he repeated to me and i just fell into his arms, the embrace that i needed to let my frustrations out.

"i don't know what happened, it's like suddenly i got so insecure about everything." i said and now everyone's attention was on me & my tears. they wouldn't stop flowing down my cheeks as i tried to explain what was happening but couldn't find the words other than the sincerity in my heart of how i felt. "i-i feel like i don't deserve my spot on the team".

complete silence fell upon the table, i could feel that everyone was shocked that i just admitted that.

"why would you think that (y/n)?" felix asked, as everyone was still trying to understand what was happening, especially chan, feeling like he did something wrong. "you know you're just as talented as everyone on this table". 

"that's the thing i'm not." i said smiling sadly and wiping my tears away. "i'm not the best singer even if i am a main one, my rapping still lacks and god my dancing is just nothing compared to you guys and i won't even start on my visuals." i said as i felt the knot in my throat getting worse 'cause i just couldn't believe i ruined the night with all my insecurities like this.

again the silence was so loud, it almost felt like i was in the right on this one.

"i hate that you're feeling like this (y/n)." hyunjin said in the most serious tone i've ever heard him use. his hand on mine as he played with them, made imaginary shapes like he does sometimes. "i could not agree with you or your mind at all".

"you're easily the most crucial part of the team." jisung said and seungmin nodded as they looked at me and i didn't know what to believe. it was hard accepting these kind of responses when you're so clouded by your own sensitivity (and a lot of alcohol). 

"you always know what to say, you're always there for us when we need you the most and you have so much to give, your talent is immeasurable." minho then said as he got closer to me and as the person who wasn't the most affectionate or the best with words, surprised me. "i know i don't tend to show it but i'll always have a soft spot for you and i'm happy chan chose you to be with us."

"you were meant to be here with us right now and you deserve so much." chan said as he got closer to me and hugged me, a hug from my leader was also something i did not expect to receive tonight but i gave in as i needed to feel the comfort of the people i loved the most.

it was as if time stopped for a moment and all i could think about was them, their smiles, their comfort and their way of showing me that i'm truly needed and loved. no more tears were flowing like rivers down on my cheeks, just a pure and blossoming smile.

"okay but... chaeryeong didn't eat the last ice cream bar, it was me." now if the silence was bad before, imagine right now. "i'm sorry, okay? i needed another one, i'm just insane like that and i stole felix's brownies the other day but i'm not sorry about that one."

"(y/n) i take it back, i'm taking your brownie privileges away." felix said dead serious and then laughed making everyone lose it again. "you can't do this every time i bake!" he exclaimed but i just pouted looking at him.

"also the freakin ice cream bar, how did you even get chaeryeong to lie for you?" changbin asked and i just did the same thing, i pouted like a baby looking at him. "nevermind, i get it, i would do anything for them, just look at that face!" he said as he hugged me.

"i'm losing my maknae position to a snack stealer!" jeongin exclaimed and i just laughed knowing i had the best chosen family and i wouldn't change it for anything in the world.

✩°｡⋆⸜ 🎧✮ I'm Not Okay (I Promise) : My Chemical Romance

(Time set back in late November of 2007)

Being a famous actress since as a child was unbelievably tough.

You had worked so hard and expertly; you didn't even have time to spend your childhood properly.

Just at the age of 19 and you've finished numerous movies and series. A true self-made millionaire, really.

You and your ravenette boyfriend are currently doing an interview for a night show.

"So ____, wow! After a long pause from doing films you're finally gonna have one showing soon! How is it like? Being back and all; being the talk of the country."

In the past one and a half year you hadn't done any projects since you've decided to take a break for yourself. And now you're once again busy taping with film staff and directors for your new and upcoming Teenage Romance movie.

Rest assured it's not your typical boy-meets-girl or vice versa and they do sappy sweet stuff and get together kind of film; it has its own uniqueness that will surely be called as "One of 2000s greatest Teen Romance movies of all time."

"Oh, I feel great Hanna. I had a deserving break and I'm back to doing one of the things I love most. I'm even happier because I got my lover and his band to sing the theme song for the movie." You truthfully answered and chuckled by the end of your statement.

"How about you Bill? How are things with your band?" Hanna included Bill to the conversation.

At that, he smiled politely. "Everything's great with us y'know, we're still together and all. Which I'm grateful for."

After a few more minutes for pep talk; the blonde interviewer finally decided to get onto the exciting part of the show.

"And now, for the moment we've all been waiting for! Dunk Tank!" Hanna smiled widely at the selected crowd.

"Where in this game; you will pick someone from the crowd who will accompany you with this game.

Your selected teammate will ask any question they want; to which you will answer, and if you don't want to then they'll get a chance to throw a ball on the target. Where if they hit it, you'll fall down the tank."

Hanna excitedly announced despite having done this for the nth time.

"____ and Bill, play Rock, Paper, Scissors to see who goes first."

You knew you'd beat Bill since every single time you played it - he'd miserably lose.

"Oh, I'm confident in winning this one!" you proudly say.

"Just because you've beat me all the other times we played this, doesn't mean I'll lose now!" Bill accepted your challenge and laughed.

He was right. He won for the very first time.

"Oh my God! Did I seriously win?!" your black clothed boyfriend exclaimed.

"I only let you win this time because I felt sorry." you playfully rolled your eyes with a smirk.

"Whatever, I'm gonna choose now." he giggled and stepped closer to the crowd.

His fan girls were screaming at the top of their lings, begging to be chosen by him.

No, you weren't jealous. Not one bit. Sometimes Bill would even complain about you not being possessive of him from time to time and would think you're not as in love as he thought.

It's cute, really. Then you'll show him how much you love him through actions rather than words.

Bill chose a girl who seemingly looked two or three years younger.

The joyous girl screamed in surprise; "Oh my god! What?! Me??! SERIOUSLY??"

It made Bill giggle, "Yes, you! Now get down here!"

A body guard helped the girl down; and when she was no longer at the stairs she rushed Bill to hug him but abruptly stopped. "Hi oh my god you're more beautiful up close! Can I hug you?!" she says excitingly.

It made your heart flutter just how kinder your boyfriend's fans are compared to yours.

To say your fan base is crazy is an understatement. Many would harass you through nasty words or touching you with no consent; it didn't matter if they did that out of how much they "love" you, it was still disgusting.

"Um, yeah. Sure!" he hesitantly looked at you; his eyes asking for permission. To which you subtly nodded.

Again, your heart melted by how he's making sure you're okay with it. Honestly, you very much understood that being famous would mean people wanting to hug you or any form of physical contact. Plus, it's not like you can say no to Bill from hugging a fan; you'd be a scandal. And you knew Bill wouldn't have any other choice as well.

He wrapped an arm over her shoulders while she fully embraced him. Okay, you're a teensy bit jealous especially by the way she's holding him like he's her man.

But that was soon washed away when she turns to you.

"Hi! What's your name sweetie?" Hanna asked and put a mic on her mouth.

"My name is Pauline!"

Before Hanna could say anything further, Pauline beat her to it.

"____!! I'm such a big fan of you too! I've been watching your movies since forever." saying she's over the moon is definitely an understatement! This will definitely be a core memory.

Almost immediately you wrapped your arms around her back and squeezed her. This girl is definitely one of the most respectable and sweetest fan you've ever met.

Was it really low? Yes.

The audience cheered by how sweet you and Bill had been to the girl and by how jealous they were.

As Bill and Hanna chattered about God knows what; the girl leaned closer to you in order to ask a favour which no one can hear.

"Can I ask you to shout out my brother? He has a huge crush on you!"

"Sorry darling but we're in the middle of a show right now. How about later I ask the staff to send you to the backstage? Then I'll give him my magazine with an autograph, and if you have a camera with you - you can video me saying hi to him!" you came up with a resolution.

Was it over the top? You didn't know and you didn't care. You're just fleeting with joy by how this girl isn't like any other of your fans.

"Seriously? You'd do that for me and my brother?" she gasped.

"Well, yeah. I mean it's not always that I have such nice interactions with people who are a fan."

"Okay lovebirds what are you two talking about there?" Hanna teased with a smirk and Bill playfully pouted.

"Nothing, nothing" you laughed and held Bill's arm as the crowd laughed and cheered.

"If you say sooo." she replied. "Alright, your turn to pick!"

You carefully looked around the crowd and walked five steps of the stairs to get a better view of the people on the back. A fifteen year old boy was holding a banner stating "Bill's No.1 Boy", it was cute, really. So you planned to steal your boyfriend's fan! (this a joke dont hate reader pls)

"The ginger at the back with the banner please." you said to the mic.

The boy squeeled in delight and threw his banner somewhere before running down to you. Your arms opened for an embrace which he immediately jumped into.

"What's your name?" you put the mic to his mouth as you both carefully went down the stairs and back to the stage.

"Sam, I'm Sam! My name is Sam!" his rather high pitched voice said.

"Okay, Sam. I know you're Bill's fan so I'm gonna have to steal you, that okay?"

"Hey, no fair!" Bill patted the boy's head and shot a smile at him.

This moment for him is definitely a core memory and will brag about it to every living human he sees.

"Now, who wants to go first in the tank?" Hanna asked.

"I'll do it" Bill says excitingly.

They agreed and the staff helped him get up. Once he were seated and adjusted in the circular surface; he challenge you.

"Ask a good one!"

"Ohohoo, we definitely will!" you smirked.

You turn to Sam and ask him without the mics near your faces; "What're you gonna ask your idol?"

"Oh uhmm, I don't really know." he says bashfully.

"Maybe his most embarrassing moment?"

"That'll work, definitely." you smile supportively and fist bumped him.

"Bill, you read?!" Hanna exclaimed.

"Born ready!!"

"Alright Sam, ask away!"

"What's the most embarrassing thing that's happened to you?" Sam asked with twinkles in his eyes.

"Oh, definitely when me and ____ weren't dating yet; she threw a sleepover party and she invited me and my mates, and there were three bathrooms, right? The three were being used and in one of those bathrooms it was Tom using it, and I had to rush him because I really needed to take a shit, like I couldn't hold it any farther!

So he went out really pissed and I pushed him off the door and quickly shut it and went right into business."

Bill paused and tried to compose himself as the crowd started to get louder.

"And when I washed and pushed the flush button - It wouldn't flush! So I got really scared because I just shit in my crush's toilet and I can't let anyone know that I'm the one who did it. So i looked around and saw a pack of pads so I took one of them; and forced myself to dip my hand down to grab it and I almost puked!

I look around and see there's no trash bin. So I panic again, and eventually decided I'll just rush down to throw it in the garbage in her garage. I quickly make a run for it and almost bumped into ___"

He now covered his hands in shame and embarrassment. "And she saw the pad in my hand! So she asked me like, 'Is that a pad?' and I'm like yes and so she asks whose it is...... and I said it's mine....."

You know of this story long ago; and it just gets better and better whenever you think or hear of it.

The audience and interviewer roared with laughter; as well as the staff behind and securities who tried to contain their smiles.

"I wish I never asked!" Sam wiped his tears from laughing too hard.

"Get down here Bill! That was too much!" Hanna's cheeks started to hurt, "Sorry to the viewers who are eating."

Bill went down immediately and squeezed the living life out of you. He does this whenever he's feeling embarrassed or nervous, and calls it his "Physical Support" from you.

"You should've let yourself get thrown in the water!" you giggled and hugged him back before he pulled away with a red face.

"Next goes ____!"

Once you were seated and made yourself comfortable on the seat; you tell them you're ready.

It was Pauline's turn to question whatever she wishes. "____, what do you think of your fans?"

She asks sincerely; she must've noticed something by the way you're like to your fan base and to Bill's. A part of you wished she hadn't asked but you've been dying to let the creepers out there know that whatever they'd been doing to you for a long long time - greatly affects you, especially as a young stat growing up in this sort of industry.

You rarely held any meet and greet, rarely had photos with fans where you look actually comfortable and where they weren't touching your waist or hips or near your ass - and ones where you do look comfortable it was mostly with girls or kids, which was not as often as when you do with the rest; who are pedophiles and creepy boys.

Of course you've always been nice when interacting with them; you didn't want to be rude and only wanted to be kind.

Definitely, there were times when you couldn't take it and couldn't do anything about it - other than cry and complain in your lover's arms.

You're forever thankful to have someone like him; he'd always listen to whatever you say and support everything you do.

Not realising; you zoned out quite a bit and snapped out of it when Bill called out your name with worry that he's trying to mask from everyone.

"Oh-, well, obviously I love them so much, if it weren't for them I wouldn't have succeed this much - of course the people who helped me get up in this industry as well.

I truly do appreciate their love and support, seriously. But quite the number of them are uh, how do I say this." you nervously chuckled as everyone listened intently to the tea you're telling.

"Crossing my boundaries? Yes, uh- that." you say not quite satisfied with the word you chose. It was evident that it's worse than just that but the safest.

"We all know people would cross it by taking unsolicited pictures of you, that's given because you're a celebrity, but are there some other ways they would? If you don't mind me asking of course." Hanna carefully asked.

You smiled softly, "Well a few have stalked me to my house - which I dunno how the hell they did so and took pictures of me and they'd send it to me and tell me how they thought of me. Some leave love letters, flowers, food in front of my gate, sent death threats to my exes when I was dating them and even now to my Bill." you left the worse parts out since you didn't want half of the world to be talking about your most private part of life. What you're even telling them now is a whole lot.

"Wow.. we all knew your fan base could get a bit crazy judging from all the videos we see and the news, but not by this much!" Hanna says empathetically.

"It happens, I guess." you try to laugh it off. However, Bill looked at your hues with his that sent the message of "Are you okay?"

In which yours replied with "I'm not okay."

✮✮✮

The game went on a for it was Pauline's turn to the dunk tank, then Sam's.

You continued your cheery self through the whole taping and told yourself you'll regret what you said later in your dressing room. Bill kept his distance close to you and would caress your hand or shoulder as a sign of support - as well as slipping a "How're you holding up?" every now and then.

If there were billions of ways to show gratitude to this man; you'd do every single one of it to him.

After the agonizing show was over; you and Bill kissed Hanna's cheeks as a goodbye and thank you. To which she said back to you both as well and wished to see you soon.

As you made your way to the dressing room in silence with your fingers intertwined with Bill's; you abruptly stop in your tracks.

"I almost forgot I have to sign a magazine for Pauline!"

Your lover looked confused for a second "What? Why?"

"I kinda promised Pauline I'll just sign a magazine for her brother because she asked me to shout him out while taping." you let a small huff and loosened your grip on your boyfriend's slender hand. "How about I'll see you later in the van? You can wait for me there instead if I haven't been back by five minutes."

Bill smiled, "Of course sweetheart, I'll see you later. Love you." he pecked your lips and lovingly looked into your eyes for a moment before heading to his dressing room.

Quickly; you asked a staff to bring Pauline to your dressing room to give her an autograph - to which they agreed to. Thankfully.

While they did that, you strided to your room and grabbed your magazine and marker - which immediately after doing so, a knock was heard on your door.

You hand held the paper as the other gripped the violet ink marker. When you did, you were greeted by a Pauline smiling widely with a camera on her right hand.

"Hi!" she says excitingly.

You greet back and quickly hugged her, "I see you have a camera with you."

"Oh, yes, uhm.. I was wondering if i can take a video of you signing an autograph? So my brother would believe me that it really is from you." she nervously giggled. "I might or might now have pranked him once by giving him a fake autograph."

"Yeah, sure. What's your brother's name?" you say softly.

"It's Percy." she answers as she readies her camera.

"Alright, is it rolling?" you ask with a smile on your face. Pauline says yes with a grateful smile; grateful for being how considerate and kind you are.

"Hi Paul! So I heard from your sister that you're a fan? Too bad you didn't come with her." you looked behind the camera to Pauline.

"And I heard she gave you a fake autograph of mine? Well now, you're getting a real one, and this is the proof." you say still giggling as you signed the magazine.

"There, and keep the pen. I gotta go now, bye and love you!" you say as you waved goodbye and gave your iconic kiss blow alongside a wink.

Once Pauline returned the camera back to her bag; she immediately thanked you.

"I'm serious - thank you thank you sooo much! And uh.. I'm really sorry if what I asked earlier was too personal. I really am. I was just curious and didn't thoroughly before it slipped my mouth." she noticed the change of the atmosphere long ago. Even if she's just fifteen, she knew how to read the room well.

"Aw, sweetie.. it's nothing." you pat her shoulder, "It's fine I tell ya, also I better get going - you should too, it'll get dark in just two hours. Bye bye and stay safe!" you wave goodbye as she still exclaimed thank you's as she walked backwards towards the exit.

(that footage is definitely gonna go viral after many years)

In a light speed; you gathered your essential belongings and had your personal assistant help you carry your other belongings to the van; to which Bill noticed through the windows that you're carrying back pack and a purse and immediately helped you despite having it under perfect control.

He opened the door for you and let you in first before him and closed the door. Your personal assistant sat in the passenger seat next to the driver, while you and your beloved were at the very back despite the space up front.

You rested your head on his shoulder and he put his above yours while he held your hand with both of his; tracing every outline, massaging it, and kissing it once in a while.

"R'you okay now?" Bill mumbled and kissed your head.

"Yes, hon. I'm great actually.. thanks so much for being there, I love you so much." you turn your head to face his and pecked his lips.

"I love you more than you'll ever know, I'm glad you're okay." he smiled genuinely and kissed you deep and passionate.

You returned to your head's original position and fell to sleep; not caring if tomorrow, you'll be the town's talk.

maybe readers ex bf/hookup saw her in a bar or something (with matty) and didn’t know they were together so he was flirting with her, and d word!matty gets jealous and proves to her that nobody else compares to him

someone else also asked Mads. How’d you think D Word Matty would react to see girlies ex boyfriend in public? And the ex would try to talk to her?

you and matty are on a little date night in a bar in shoreditch (a.n. before you all go insane this is not a taylor reference this is a me reference. i miss it there bitch) just sitting with your drinks being all lovey-dovey when you clock a group of people come in and go "oh, for fuck's sake. don't look now. but a guy i used to see just came in". naturally, matty does not listen and turns immediately to look at him like "um i think he's coming over here. do you want me to fight him", and you laugh wearily like "no, it's fine, i'll say hi and be done with it, he's not a bad guy". anyway, the guy comes over and hugs you like "WOW you look fanTASTIC it's been a while since i saw you did you hear i got a promotion at work yeah i'm making six figures now" literally not letting you get a word in edgeways, and matty's literally chewing the inside of his lip to stop it curling in clear disgust for the guy, who turns to him like "oh hey man nice to meet you she and i dated a couple of years ago". you interrupt him like "yeah, years ago, for about a month, before i ended it" - matty's internally like "god i love her" at how easily you bruised his ego - and then you introduce matty (whose hand hasn't left your thigh at all) like "yeah, this is my boyfriend matty, we've just moved in together". matty doesn't even bother standing, just looks the guy up and down before holding out his hand to him - he grips the guy's hand tightly in a subtle warning as he shakes it, before dropping it and putting his arm around you to pull you in for a forehead kiss, which makes you smile sweetly, just calmly doing all he can to make the guy feel inadequate. and it works - the guy stutters something about catching up soon before he scarpers, and you immediately turn to matty like "that was amazing you fucking terrified him", and he's like "good lmao" and downs the rest of his drink before pulling you onto his lap for a makeout. you pull back smirking like "matthew healy, are you jealous?", and matty's like "honestly? yeah. hated seeing him touch you" - you kiss him again like "well, you're the only one i want touching me ever again" and matty's like "good girl. let's go home so i can make you forget all about him. in fact, so i can make you forget about everyone in the world but me", and you go a bit sappy like "babe that's my daily life. but yes please" lol (and you're railed in missionary so you can look at each other whn you get home) <3

Sure, keep in mind the Better Than Adventure mod uses a different colour formatting code than vanilla though. It's also a bit more difficult to edit splash text in vanilla from what I can gather. Anyway:

REVIEW

In light of Vampire Weekend releasing their 5th album tomorrow as of writing, I feel like reviewing their debut is fitting to better understand the band and boy do I understand them now!

'Mansard Roof' was definitely a good introduction to this band; It's short, poppy, and got me in the mood to enjoy some pretty 00's pop music. The instrumentation is definitely unique, too.

'Oxford Comma' has very relatable songwriting as I do not give a fuck about an oxford comma. To me, this whole album sounded quite whimsical and silly and it works! I love the happy vibe of this thing, especially on the next track: 'A-Punk'. The guitar riff is so bouncy and fun! I can see exactly why this charted, it's so cheery!

I'm absolutely in love with the instrumentation on 'Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa', the rhythmic hand drums add so much to this song. The Peter Gabriel reference was also a cool surprise. The production is equally good on following track 'M79', though less minimalistic. The lyrics on 'M79' are great too, particularly the bridge.

'Campus' is the only song I new already from this album. It's always a great moment when you're listening to something and realise "OH IT'S THIS SONG". I love the clean guitars all through this album, but particularly here. They add so much to the sound of the band.

After 6 bangers, 'Bryn' is the first track I'd describe as just "good". This one sounds a bit more all over the place as opposed to their neat, clean production on the rest of the tracks. It's still good, though. As is 'One (Blake's Got A New Face)', which I applaud attempting a slightly more experimental feeling. Unfortunately it doesn't go all the way, and ends up sounding like a particularly mediocre Talking Heads song. I prefer it to 'Bryn', though.

On 'Walcott' the band returns to its great songs. The organ (i think?) melody is so much cheerful, I but it's string arrangements put me off a little bit. Can't help but think they sound a little bit sappy?

'The Kids Don't Stand a Chance' isn't one of the best outro's I've heard, but it does its job. It's production is in line with the rest of the album, stellar, but I felt a little bored through it. Definitely still enjoyable, though.

Vampire Weekend's debut is one of the most entertaining pop albums of the 2000s I've ever heard, providing minimalistic production and stunning vocals. The worst thing about the album is its front-loadedness, but wow is that first half good! Its lyrical content also falls flat sometimes, but not enough for the issue to be glaring. I'd certainly recommend this album.

FINAL SCORE: 85/100

1, 14, 30, 41, and 18 (for 'sit next to me before I go') for the fic asks? 🥰🥰

1. What fic of yours would you recommend to someone who had never read any of your work? (In other words, what do you think is the best introduction to your fics?)

I've already answered that here 😊

14. Are there any tropes you would only read if written by a trusted friend or writer?

Also answered that here 😘

18. If you wrote a sequel to [insert fic], what would it involve?

Hmm, I don't know about a full sequel, but I was contemplating writing an epilogue to under these lights you look beautiful which would feature us returning to the bar one year later. And it would be Miles up on the stage this time singing a song for Alex, on their anniversary of finding each other, him being the one to proclaim his love in public with a super sappy love song, and it would just be the fluffiest romantic mess you can imagine.

I've still got the draft lying around for it somewhere, but I don't think it'll ever see light of day. It ended up too soft and sappy, even for me 😂😘

IM DUMB! I only just realized you had specified which fic this was regarding, so apologies for just picking one 😂

If I was writing a sequel to sit next to me before i go I'd probably include something about how they deal with moving from friends to lovers on a daily basis, how they incorporate each other in their life on tour, maybe both of them following the other on theirs and them trying to figure out how to see each other as often as possible whilst still getting to do their thing. I'd also try to maybe make Alex be the one being sick and Miles having to look after him 😂 And I'd definitely have something about them looking to find a new place, something that's theirs where they have space for all the dumb shit they've accumulated over the years 😘

30. Have you ever written something that was out of your comfort zone? If so, what was it, and how did it affect your approach to writing fic thereafter?

Hmm, I think maybe you just ain't the one for me is the most unlike my other works in terms of pov and general content. It's an "outsider's" perspective and it's not often I write a het pairing even if it is brief. I practiced how to write from the pov of someone I'm not super familiar with and who isn't part of the pairing. And it was such a different character to what I'm used to, and it opened me up to allow myself to write a bit more freely. Helped my allow my characters to be more flawed, fleshed out and essentially a little more selfish. It broadened my horizon of what can make a character act a certain way and helped me see new opportunities. Very enjoyable actually.

That fic also helped me be less perfectionist about my work, and to have more fun with it. Just to go with it if I had an idea and be less critical. And not care as much if people didn't like it 😘

41. Link a fic that made you think, “Wow, I want to write like that.”

Oh, SO MANY! I'm inspired and impressed by so many writers, and we as a fandom are very blessed with the quality of work we got from amazingly talented writers. Luckily everyone has their different strengths, and I feel like my style fits me rather well. But I'd love to still improve and get better at it, as I see myself as a rather noob writer still 😂

Examples that come to mind are:

The Book Club by @girlinthepictureframe - especially chapter 15, which features a bit of the most delicious tension ever. That moment haunts me and I love it, and I hope to one day be able to capture something as good as that! Their stories are some of my all time faves and their writing is just immaculate in every way.

An evening in London by @richiebrook is also one that I admire a lot, the writing is the most beautiful, the way it captures atmospheres and feelings weaved into one. Beautiful and poignant, an example of how to say more with less, and how to do melancholy in the most beautiful fashion.

No one belongs here more than you by @stereobone is also an example of something so gorgeously poignant, so few words that say so much. There's an amazing naturalness and ease to this one that I really enjoy! It took my breath away!

Also everything written by both @yellowloid and @elorianna inspires me to no end. They're just incredibly talented writers in all ways and I adore their work so so so so so so much!!

Thank you so much for these lovely questions!! ❤️❤️❤️

Leadup / cutesy bits. Sorry, I haven't put these in their routes or anything it's just bulk so you can find the dialogue.

NARRATOR: We’ve had romances, pranks, twin twists and bombshells…

NARRATOR: Casa Amor chaos, Movie Night mayhem, and so many grand gestures!

NARRATOR: Even more gestures than I got from the other people in line at passport control when I tried out my new stand up set on them.

NARRATOR: I say grand gestures… their gestures were mainly obscene.

NARRATOR: {0} has just made a much more romantic gesture. But has it won {1}’s heart?

{0} smiles expectantly, and tucks a strand of hair behind her ear, waiting for your reply.

{0}_HAPPY: So what do you think? Wanna be my girlfriend?

A million times yes!

PLAYER_HAPPY: A million times yes!

{0}_HAPPY: For real?

PLAYER_HAPPY: Of course!

{0}_HAPPY: Honestly, that means so much to me.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: It’s been such a journey getting to this point together.

{0}_HAPPY: I was starting to overthink it. I was so nervous asking.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: Big statement.

{0}_HAPPY: I’m gonna nail it. I promise.

Kiss her

With the night sky twinkling above you, you lean slowly towards {0}.

She caresses your cheek and you kiss delicately, breathing in the moment.

This moment is etched into your love story forever. You wrap your arms around her neck and fall deeper into her lips.

You’re both smiling when you finally pull apart, staying locked in each other’s arms.

Your fellow Islanders cheer and clap. Amelia looks misty-eyed.

Pull her into a hug

With the moon as your backdrop, you pull {0} into a beautiful embrace.

{0}_IDLE: I came alive when I first saw you in Casa Amor.

{0}_HAPPY: You’re everything I’ve been searching the globe for, {1}.

{0}_HAPPY: I’m struggling to take in that you actually feel the same way as I do.

{0}_HAPPY: I’ve given every reason to say no haven’t I?

{0}_EMBARRASSED: I came in here with a plan and it was the wrong plan.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: And my execution was all wrong and I botched things pretty badly.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: I let my impulsiveness and insecurity cloud my judgement.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: And I made a whole series of mistakes. One in particular.

{0}_FLIRTY: No offence, Amelia.

AMELIA_SURPRISED: None taken. You were my summer mistake too, Marshall.

{0}_FLIRTY: Anyway, {1}, you’re way out of my league.

{0}_FLIRTY: And I want you to know that I’ll never forget how lucky I am to have you.

{0}_IDLE: I couldn’t be more excited for whatever wild journey we have together.

{0}_FLIRTY: I can’t predict where we’ll end up, but I know we’ll have fun!

{0}_HAPPY: You mean a lot to me, {1}. Even at this early stage.

Grace gasps with excitement. Amelia gives a genuine smile.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: I was hoping you’d ask me.

{0}_HAPPY: I was waiting for the perfect moment.

{0}_FLIRTY: But I couldn’t dream of anything more perfect than being here with you.

{0}_HAPPY: You really are more gorgeous than any of these flowers.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: I sound so romantic! What’s happening to me?

PLAYER_FLIRTY: You like me…

{0}_HAPPY: This is just the beginning for us.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Yeah?

{0}_IDLE: Maybe we didn’t have the best start.

{0}_HAPPY: But it’s smooth sailing from now on, I swear.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: Big statement.

{0}_HAPPY: It’s just you and me.

Kiss him

With the night sky twinkling above you, you lean slowly towards {0}.

He caresses your cheek and you kiss delicately, breathing in the moment.

This moment is etched into your story forever. You wrap your arms around his neck and fall deeper into his lips.

You’re both smiling when you finally pull apart, staying locked in each other’s arms.

Your fellow Islanders cheer and clap. Amelia looks misty-eyed.

Pull him into a hug

With the moon as your backdrop, you pull {0} into a beautiful embrace.

You bury your head in his shoulder and feel him stroking the small of your back.

You stay locked in each other’s arms even when you break apart.

Neither one of you wanting this moment to end.

Your fellow Islanders cheer and clap. Amelia looks misty-eyed.

Agree with him

PLAYER_HAPPY: We’ve got this.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: Of that I’m so sure.

{0}_HAPPY: You and I, we’ll build the most beautiful relationship.

It’s a bit too soon

PLAYER_IDLE: I think it might be too soon for that.

PLAYER_EMBARRASSED: We’re not ready.

{0}_IDLE: Oh, ok.

Your fellow islanders look on awkwardly.

{0}_IDLE: I respect your decision of course.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: I was hoping for a different outcome.

{0}_HAPPY: But I don’t blame you for wanting to wait.

{0}_IDLE: Our journey has only just begun.

{0}_HAPPY: This has to be something we both want.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Thanks for getting it.

AMELIA_HAPPY: Aw, you two.

{0}_HAPPY: I’m genuinely happy for you both.

{0}_HAPPY: Same here.

OZZY_HAPPY: It’s good to see you happy, Marsh.

OZZY_IDLE: I mean that.

GRACE_HAPPY: Cuties.

{0}_HAPPY: We’re all good though, Amelia?

AMELIA_HAPPY: For sure.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Is that a tear, Amelia?

AMELIA_SURPRISED: It so totally is not.

TOBY_HAPPY: Are your eyes sweating then?

AMELIA_HAPPY: Nah, um onions or hayfever…

{0}_HAPPY: Excuses, excuses.

AMELIA_HAPPY: Ok, ok, I’m happy crying for all of us.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Awwww.

AMELIA_IDLE: I got you, {0}.

AMELIA_HAPPY: You have to do what feels natural.

GRACE_EMBARRASSED: Bit awks though.

{0}_HAPPY: I don’t think it’s awkward.

OZZY_HAPPY: {0} is still smiling, so I think he’s good.

TOBY_HAPPY: Exclusive-to-be.

{0}_HAPPY: Plenty of time to make things official when you get out of here.

AMELIA_HAPPY: This is such a dreamy night.

GRACE_HAPPY: I don’t want it to end.

PLAYER_SURPRISED: I’ve got a text!

LITEXT: Islanders, it’s time for the grand final! Get in your couples for some last chats before the results… {0}BestSummerEver {1}ResultsRevealed

GRACE_HAPPY: One last girl gaggle?

PLAYER_HAPPY: Terrace?

{0}_HAPPY: To the terrace!

You and the girls settle down on the terrace for your last debrief before the results!

GRACE_HAPPY: Whew. I need to compose myself.

AMELIA_HAPPY: Me too.

AMELIA_EMBARRASSED: I feel emotional already.

PLAYER_HAPPY: It’s been a big night.

{0}_HAPPY: I’m so pumped that we’re all here together, in the final!

{0}_HAPPY: We made it together.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Here we are!

{0}_FLIRTY: I feel like I already won.

{0}_HAPPY: Don’t need that money.

GRACE_HAPPY: I’ll take it then.

{0}_FLIRTY: Steady on. Said I don’t need, never said I don’t want it…

AMELIA_HAPPY: I’m still buzzing from those declarations to be honest.

AMELIA_HAPPY: I’m Toby’s girlfriend.

AMELIA_FLIRTY: I’m dating an underwear model.

GRACE_FLIRTY: Lucky girl.

So happy for you

PLAYER_HAPPY: I’m honestly so happy for you!

PLAYER_HAPPY: You two are made for each other, that’s clear to see.

AMELIA_HAPPY: I’m glad you think so!

AMELIA_HAPPY: It feels like a dream.

I do think it’s too soon

PLAYER_IDLE: It’s too soon.

PLAYER_IDLE: Boyfriend is a bit premature.

PLAYER_IDLE: You haven’t known each other long enough.

AMELIA_IDLE: I love you, but I disagree.

AMELIA_HAPPY: He’s for me, I know it.

Boring

PLAYER_IDLE: Boyfriend talk is boring.

AMELIA_IDLE: You gotta be joking.

AMELIA_HAPPY: We’re in the Love Island final.

AMELIA_HAPPY: We’re gonna be talking about our boys.

AMELIA_IDLE: Or girls.

GRACE_HAPPY: He’s so into you.

{0}_FLIRTY: It’s gross.

She blows Amelia a kiss.

AMELIA_HAPPY: Oi!

GRACE_HAPPY: I couldn’t help but say yes to Oz.

GRACE_EMBARRASSED: I know we haven’t been perfect.

GRACE_IDLE: I get that he hasn’t been very consistent.

GRACE_SAD: Obviously I’ve made some mistakes too.

{0}_IDLE: Ol’ Hamish?

GRACE_EMBARRASSED: Do not remind me.

GRACE_IDLE: But there’s something in the air tonight.

GRACE_HAPPY: It’s all so magical.

GRACE_HAPPY: I wanted to say yes.

GRACE_EMBARRASSED: I hope it was the right decision for me, for us.

It’s right for you both

PLAYER_HAPPY: It was, Grace.

PLAYER_IDLE: Sure you’ve both had your moments.

PLAYER_HAPPY: But the fact that you’ve made it here together says everything.

AMELIA_HAPPY: She’s right. You gotta have faith in you two.

{0}_HAPPY: He’s really been trying.

AMELIA_IDLE: And if he messes up again, then we riot.

{0}_SERIOUS: No prisoners.

{0}_HAPPY: But he won’t!

Should’ve pied him

PLAYER_IDLE: Personally, I think you should’ve pied him.

PLAYER_IDLE: He’s had too many second chances.

GRACE_SURPRISED: I thought you said to be official with him?!

PLAYER_IDLE: You were on the spot, had to say something…

GRACE_IDLE: Well, I appreciate you looking out for me, {0}.

GRACE_SAD: I do get what you’re saying.

AMELIA_IDLE: You have to make your own choices though, Grace.

{0}_IDLE: Of course we all feel a bit protective.

{0}_HAPPY: But Oz is a good guy.

AMELIA_HAPPY: I do think he might have changed a lot during his time here.

GRACE_HAPPY: I really hope so.

Ugh, more boy talk

PLAYER_IDLE: Ugh, no more boy talk.

GRACE_IDLE: I like when we all give each other boy advice.

GRACE_IDLE: It makes me feel better having you girls round me.

AMELIA_HAPPY: We’re here for you, Grace.

AMELIA_IDLE: Even {0}. She’s just being contrary.

PLAYER_IDLE: Hmmmm.

{0}_IDLE: At the end of the day, you did what you felt was right.

AMELIA_HAPPY: He likes you! You like him!

AMELIA_HAPPY: You’re in the final together.

GRACE_HAPPY: Thanks, girls.

GRACE_EMBARRASSED: I appreciate you girls looking out for me back there.

GRACE_SAD: You’ve really got my back.

GRACE_SAD: Especially you, {0}.

GRACE_SAD: If you hadn’t spoken up I would have been official with him right not.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Just trying to look out for you.

{0}_SAD: Yeah, I guess he’s just not the one. You knew that deep down.

GRACE_SAD: Yeah, I did. I hope I didn’t hurt him.

GRACE_IDLE: But I’m glad it’s done and we can just get to the end as friends.

AMELIA_HAPPY: That’s the spirit!

GRACE_HAPPY: Love you girls.

{0}_HAPPY: We love you too!

GRACE_HAPPY: Marshall was cute, wasn’t he?

AMELIA_HAPPY: He was very sweet.

AMELIA_IDLE: I genuinely think he’s a great boy.

AMELIA_HAPPY: Who knows, maybe he could be good for you, Grace?

{0}_HAPPY: Be open to it.

{0}_FLIRTY: If you feel a vibe.

GRACE_IDLE: I am happy for you and Ozzy, {0}.

GRACE_SAD: But I guess part of me did think it would be me and him coupled up for the final.

I can understand that

PLAYER_IDLE: I can understand that, I hope you’re ok.

GRACE_IDLE: I will be, thank you, {0}.

GRACE_HAPPY: I’ll get over him, it might take some more time.

AMELIA_HAPPY: Focus on Marshall, and if he’s not for you…

AMELIA_FLIRTY: Just wait till we get out of here.

{0}_FLIRTY: I bet there are boys queuing up for a date with a gal like you.

GRACE_HAPPY: Yay! You’re all right.

He’s mine though

PLAYER_IDLE: Well, he’s mine though.

PLAYER_IDLE: It can’t be helped.

GRACE_IDLE: I know that. I’ll move on, I promise.

AMELIA_IDLE: We know you will.

{0}_IDLE: Put some focus on Marshall.

{0}_HAPPY: But first, straighten your crown!

GRACE_HAPPY: Thanks, girls.

You’re better with Marsh

PLAYER_HAPPY: I truly think you’re better with Marshall.

PLAYER_IDLE: Ozzy was never the boy for you.

GRACE_IDLE: I’m sure you’re right.

AMELIA_IDLE: You’re right where you’re supposed to be.

{0}_HAPPY: The future holds big things for you, Grace.

{0}_HAPPY: For all of us too.

{0}_HAPPY: I know I’m not loved up.

{0}_HAPPY: But it does feel great to be in the final with one of my besties.

GRACE_HAPPY: Platonic love is special too.

AMELIA_HAPPY: You two have the best energy.

{0}_HAPPY: But {1} is a sweetheart. I’m happy to be here with him.

{0}_HAPPY: I can see us being great friends.

{0}_FLIRTY: He said he’s always wanted to go to Australia too!

GRACE_HAPPY: You two have great bff energy.

{0}_IDLE: Sure there’s nothing romantic between me and {1}.

{0}_HAPPY: But I’m happy to be here with you girls.

{0}_FLIRTY: Course maybe I would’ve rather been in the final with somebody else.

PLAYER_IDLE: Oops.

She rolls her eyes jokily at you.

{0}_HAPPY: But I’m happy anyway.

AMELIA_HAPPY: What about {0} declaration though, {1}?

It was a dream

PLAYER_HAPPY: It felt like a dream come true.

PLAYER_HAPPY: The flowers, the dresses, the stars.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: Standing up there with the one person I like the most.

You smile at {0}, she puts her hands up to her cheeks and smiles back.

{0}_HAPPY: I can’t stop smiling.

AMELIA_HAPPY: It was like a movie scene.

It was cringe

PLAYER_IDLE: I felt like it was a bit cringe, if I’m honest.

AMELIA_SURPRISED: Oh what?

{0}_EMBARRASSED: Oh, um.

{0}_IDLE: I definitely didn’t want it to be cringe.

{0}_FLIRTY: Guess I’m just a cringe girl when it comes to you.

I’m processing it all

PLAYER_IDLE: I’m still processing it all.

PLAYER_IDLE: It was a lot to take in.

{0}_IDLE: Hopefully in a good way.

AMELIA_IDLE: It’s definitely an overwhelming night.

AMELIA_HAPPY: But you’ve got {0} with you the whole way.

GRACE_HAPPY: And us.

AMELIA_HAPPY: I just gotta say it again, we’re in the final!

{0}_HAPPY: It doesn’t feel real!

GRACE_HAPPY: I wonder who will win.

GRACE_IDLE: I’m thinking it won’t be me and Oz.

GRACE_HAPPY: We’ve been a bit too rocky.

{0}_IDLE: You never know.

AMELIA_HAPPY: It absolutely could be you two!

GRACE_IDLE: I don’t think it’ll be me and Marshall.

GRACE_HAPPY: We’re a bit too new.

GRACE_FLIRTY: Pretty sure I don’t even know his favourite colour yet.

AMELIA_HAPPY: Let’s say tattoo ink green.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Oh dear…

AMELIA_HAPPY: I think you two are in with a chance!

{0}_HAPPY: You never know.

AMELIA_HAPPY: I think it’ll be any of you girls.

Amelia gestures over at you and {0}.

AMELIA_HAPPY: You two would be incredible winners.

AMELIA_HAPPY: I’d cry.

{0}_HAPPY: Awwww, I think it could be you and Toby though!

It could be any of us

PLAYER_HAPPY: It really could be any of us.

PLAYER_HAPPY: We’re all worthy winners in our own ways.

PLAYER_IDLE: We’ve all had unique journeys.

PLAYER_HAPPY: We’ll just have to wait and see.

AMELIA_HAPPY: I couldn’t have said it any better.

GRACE_HAPPY: Damn right.

It’ll be me

PLAYER_IDLE: It’ll be me. I know it.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Me and {0}.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: We’re the best couple.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: I’m not sure you’re supposed to say that out loud, {1}.

{0}_HAPPY: I’m happy that you’re so confident about us though.

AMELIA_EMBARRASSED: Very confident.

GRACE_IDLE: We love a confident girl, I guess.

It won’t be me

PLAYER_IDLE: It won’t be me and {0}.

AMELIA_SURPRISED: You don’t know that!

{0}_IDLE: I hope we’ve got as much chance as anyone else in here.

{0}_HAPPY: I’m sure people will have seen our genuine connection.

GRACE_HAPPY: I think you’re wrong, {0}.

GRACE_HAPPY: You might be surprised.

PLAYER_IDLE: We’ll see.

GRACE_HAPPY: I guess I don’t really care who wins.

PLAYER_IDLE: How come?

GRACE_SAD: Well all I know is that I’m gonna miss all of you babes so much.

GRACE_SAD: Not waking up to your beautiful faces in the morning.

AMELIA_SAD: Aw stop, I didn’t wanna think about that.

{0}_SAD: I’ll miss getting ready together.

{0}_SAD: Our spontaneous girl chats.

{0}_HAPPY: You’re all the best.

GRACE_HAPPY: It wouldn’t have been the same without you girls.

GRACE_FLIRTY: Yeah the boys are ok, but I hope we all stay in contact.

GRACE_HAPPY: I can give you all the most fabulous hair makeovers of your lives.

AMELIA_HAPPY: Oh, yes please!

{0}_HAPPY: Girls’ trip to Australia?

GRACE_HAPPY: Can I meet a koala?

{0}_HAPPY: Oh sure, all Aussies have the koalas on speed dial don’t ya know?

GRACE_FLIRTY: Very funny.

{0}_HAPPY: I’m sure I can arrange a koala day.

{0}_HAPPY: You’re all coming to the ballet, right?

GRACE_HAPPY: I’d love to! Dress up all classy and sit in the front row?

{0}_FLIRTY: You can come backstage.

{0}_HAPPY: You’re all coming to my next Ibiza residency, right?

GRACE_HAPPY: I’ll be there, dancing wildly in front of the DJ booth.

{0}_FLIRTY: Maybe I’ll even let you girls stand up there with me.

AMELIA_HAPPY: Do you take requests? Because I will be asking every five seconds.

{0}_SERIOUS: No.

{0}_FLIRTY: But definitely for you though, {1}.

PLAYER_HAPPY: I was gonna say!

AMELIA_HAPPY: You really are all wonderful.

AMELIA_HAPPY: This has been the best summer ever.

Let’s have a hug

PLAYER_HAPPY: Let’s have a group hug, girls.

You pull the girls into a final group hug.

GRACE_SAD: Aw, I’m getting teary.

AMELIA_SAD: I’m off again.

{0}_SAD: I never cry but even I feel a little bit misty.

PLAYER_SAD: We’ll see each other again.

PLAYER_HAPPY: We’ll have a group chat.

GRACE_HAPPY: Perfect!

AMELIA_HAPPY: Great plan.

{0}_HAPPY: We’ll pester each other with memes.

{0}_FLIRTY: Love Island memes.

I’ll miss you all

PLAYER_SAD: I’ll miss all of you.

PLAYER_HAPPY: You’ve all been part of my journey.

GRACE_HAPPY: We’ll still see each other all the time.

GRACE_HAPPY: I know it.

AMELIA_HAPPY: You’re stuck with me.

{0}_HAPPY: And I’m pretty sure you’re stuck with me too.

{0}_HAPPY: Can’t break a bond like ours.

{0}_HAPPY: Best gals for life.

I won’t miss you

PLAYER_IDLE: I won’t miss you.

PLAYER_IDLE: We’ve been around each other too much.

AMELIA_IDLE: Oh, you don’t mean that.

GRACE_IDLE: I’ve loved it.

{0}_IDLE: I hope you’ll miss me.

{0}_HAPPY: Well, I say you can’t break a bond like ours.

{0}_HAPPY: Best gals for life.

I’ll miss the boys

PLAYER_IDLE: I’ll miss the boys.

AMELIA_EMBARRASSED: Ew, you don’t mean that.

GRACE_IDLE: Us girls have got to stick together.

{0}_IDLE: I hope you’ll miss me!

{0}_FLIRTY: We’re so much cooler than the boys.

{0}_HAPPY: You know that, {1}.

GRACE_SAD: It must be time to head down to the Firepit.

GRACE_EMBARRASSED: I’m so nervous.

GRACE_HAPPY: But also excited.

AMELIA_HAPPY: I’ve got butterflies.

{0}_IDLE: Can we have one last chat, just us two?

PLAYER_HAPPY: Of course!

{0} pops his head through the door to the terrace.

{0}_IDLE: Sorry to interrupt.

{0}_HAPPY: Was hoping to pull {1} for a quick chat before the results.

AMELIA_HAPPY: We’ll meet you down there.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Come on then.

{0} leads you towards the gym.

You share an exercise mat, lying side-by-side under the starry sky.

{0}_HAPPY: I had to get you alone, just for a few moments before we face whatever comes next.

PLAYER_HAPPY: We can see the stars from here.

{0}_HAPPY: Exactly. I feel like they’ve really made an appearance tonight.

{0}_FLIRTY: For you.

{0}_HAPPY: I see them in your eyes.

Are you captivated?

PLAYER_HAPPY: Are you captivated by them?

{0}_FLIRTY: By them…

{0}_FLIRTY: By you…

{0}_HAPPY: And everything you do.

Let me blink them out

PLAYER_IDLE: Oh, hang on. Let me blink them out.

{0}_HAPPY: You couldn’t, even if you wanted to.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Damn it.

They look better in yours

PLAYER_FLIRTY: They look better in your eyes.

{0}_FLIRTY: Not even close.

{0}_HAPPY: I brought you to the gym because we had our first proper chat here.

{0}_FLIRTY: I still remember you complimenting my abs.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: Oh man, I did.

{0}_HAPPY: You were not impressed by my abs.

{0}_FLIRTY: Or maybe you were just pretending.

PLAYER_IDLE: You’ll never know…

{0}_HAPPY: Did you ever think we’d make it to this point together?

I had total faith

PLAYER_HAPPY: I had total faith in us.

PLAYER_HAPPY: I knew we’d make it here together.

{0}_HAPPY: Good, because there’s nobody I’d rather be with.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: Even if I almost messed it up with the whole Grace situation.

{0}_IDLE: It’s you. I promise it’s you.

{0}_HAPPY: I’ve finally met my match.

Honestly, no

PLAYER_IDLE: Honestly?

{0}_HAPPY: Yeah, don’t hold back.

PLAYER_IDLE: I didn’t think we’d make it.

{0}_SAD: I understand why you’d feel that way.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: The whole Grace situation was not fair.

{0}_IDLE: But I promise I’ve learnt from my mistakes.

{0}_HAPPY: We’ve battled all those twists and turns.

{0}_HAPPY: And here we are, back where it all started.

I wasn’t sure

PLAYER_IDLE: I wasn’t sure.

PLAYER_IDLE: It’s hard to be sure in the Love Island Villa.

PLAYER_EMBARRASSED: Plus, the whole Grace thing.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: She really isn’t on my mind.

{0}_IDLE: I want you, only you.

{0}_HAPPY: I know you’re the girl I want to be with.

{0}_HAPPY: It’s all been leading up to this point.

{0}_HAPPY: We’re moments away from finding out the winners.

PLAYER_SURPRISED: I know, I can’t believe it!

{0}_IDLE: But we’re all so close to leaving the villa…

{0}_IDLE: That’s gonna be a bit weird, isn’t it?

I’ve got you with me

PLAYER_HAPPY: I’ve got you by my side.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: I feel like we can face anything.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Even though it’s going to be a lot.

{0}_HAPPY: Damn right you do.

{0}_FLIRTY: If you want me, I’m there.

{0}_HAPPY: Holding your hand the whole time.

I’m ready to get out

PLAYER_IDLE: I’m seriously ready to head home.

PLAYER_HAPPY: I’m ready for the outside world.

{0}_IDLE: I feel that. There are so many things we have to experience together.

{0}_HAPPY: But I’ll always love this place for bringing us together.

I’ll miss this place

PLAYER_SAD: I actually think I’ll miss this place.

PLAYER_IDLE: The friends, the sun, the pool, the drama.

{0}_HAPPY: The vibes?

PLAYER_HAPPY: The vibes for sure!

{0}_HAPPY: We’ll always have this incredible experience.

{0}_HAPPY: We’ll always have these friends.

{0}_FLIRTY: I’ll make sure I always bring the vibes too.

{0} smiles and reaches out a hand to take yours.

Hold hands

You reach out and your hands clasp together.

{0}_HAPPY: I’ve got you, {1}.

PLAYER_HAPPY: I’ve got you too.

Smile back

You smile back at {0}.

{0}_HAPPY: We’ve got this, {1}.

PLAYER_IDLE: I know.

{0} gives your hand a little squeeze.

{0}_IDLE: Let me tell you what I do when I need to feel calm and ready.

{0}_IDLE: I usually get the most nervous before an audition.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: It can be really intense and it’s even worse if you don’t get picked.

PLAYER_IDLE: So, how do you cope?

{0}_HAPPY: I have a pair of lucky socks…

PLAYER_SURPRISED: Socks?

{0}_HAPPY: Yep, socks!

{0}_IDLE: It might be a cliché, but they really do help.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Um, what kind of socks are they?

{0}_IDLE: They’re pretty regular socks, until you see the bottom of my feet.

{0}_HAPPY: They’ve got little friendly snakes on them.

{0}_HAPPY: Patrick the snake.

PLAYER_IDLE: Why snakes, and why Patrick?

{0} shifts uncomfortably beside you.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: Well, it’s a bit embarrassing really.

{0}_IDLE: Especially because of how we were both acting towards each other.

PLAYER_IDLE: We? As in, you and I?

{0}_EMBARRASSED: No, Marshall and I.

{0}_HAPPY: When me and Marsh were younger, we really wanted a pet snake.

{0}_IDLE: But our mum was not keen.

{0}_HAPPY: So we adopted an imaginary snake.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Called Patrick?

{0}_HAPPY: You got it.

{0}_IDLE: He actually bought me the socks right before my first ever audition.

{0}_HAPPY: And I booked that job right away.

{0}_IDLE: Been wearing them whenever I need to feel lucky.

{0}_EMBARRASSED: I wash them, of course…

{0}_IDLE: And that’s why Marshall has the snake tattoo on his arm.

PLAYER_SURPRISED: Ah, of course!

PLAYER_HAPPY: Did you bring them with you?

{0}_FLIRTY: Guess you’d never be able to tell.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: True.

{0}_IDLE: They remind me of how close me and Marsh used to be.

{0}_SAD: Of how close I hope we can be again.

{0}_IDLE: And if I do have them with me…

{0}_FLIRTY: There’s a chance I’ve worn them when I’ve needed the courage to talk to you.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Oh yeah?

{0}_HAPPY: I really care about you, {1}.

I love that story

PLAYER_HAPPY: I loved that story.

PLAYER_HAPPY: I feel so close to you.

{0}_HAPPY: I feel so close to you too, {1}.

{0}_IDLE: I wanted to take our minds off of the final for a moment.

PLAYER_HAPPY: It was perfect.

What was the point of that?

PLAYER_IDLE: What was the point of that story again?

{0}_EMBARRASSED: To tell you how I cope with nerves.

{0}_IDLE: To show you a little bit more of who I am.

{0}_HAPPY: And to take our mind off of the final for a moment.

PLAYER_IDLE: Oh, yeah.

{0}_HAPPY: I wish we could stay here.

{0}_HAPPY: I don’t want this to end.

{0}_SURPRISED: But I can see the others at the Firepit.

PLAYER_SURPRISED: We should go join them!

You and {0} walk towards the Firepit, still holding hands.

You and {0} walk towards the Firepit.

{0} leads you towards the loungers.

You share one, lying side-by-side under the starry sky.

{0}_HAPPY: I had to get you alone, just for a few moments before we face whatever comes next.

PLAYER_HAPPY: We can see the stars from here.

{0}_HAPPY: Exactly. I feel like they’ve really made an appearance tonight.

{0}_FLIRTY: For you.

{0}_HAPPY: I see them in your eyes.

Are you captivated?

PLAYER_HAPPY: Are you captivated by them?

{0}_FLIRTY: By them…

{0}_FLIRTY: By you…

{0}_HAPPY: And everything you do.

Let me blink them out

PLAYER_IDLE: Oh, hang on. Let me blink them out.

{0}_HAPPY: You couldn’t, even if you wanted to.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Damn it.

They look better in yours

PLAYER_FLIRTY: They look better in your eyes.

{0}_FLIRTY: Not even close.

{0}_HAPPY: From Casa, to the final.

{0}_HAPPY: What a journey.

{0}_HAPPY: And now we’re exclusive.

{0}_IDLE: This is very unusual for me.

{0}_HAPPY: I never fall this fast.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Is that the truth?

{0}_IDLE: 100% the truth.

{0}_HAPPY: I can’t believe we’re here.

{0}_HAPPY: Feels like yesterday that I came into the villa and stole you away.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Maybe I wanted to be stolen.

{0}_FLIRTY: Feels like yesterday I saw you coming and stole my first chat with you.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: You got to me before the others.

{0}_HAPPY: I must have made a pretty good impression.

{0}_HAPPY: Feels like yesterday that I first saw you in Casa.

{0}_FLIRTY: With your magnetic aura.

{0}_HAPPY: I couldn’t help but gravitate towards you.

{0}_HAPPY: Now you’re my girlfriend.

{0}_FLIRTY: I love saying that out loud.

That’s a cute idea but as we find out in chapter 19, Oc is fussy 🤣

@sweett-nightt replied: “Please, the big softy will love it.” yuna representing us all 🤣, and the JK meeting too i’m so waiting for more interactions between them

Seokjin is SUCH a big softy 🥺 and don’t worry, more interactions between Yuna and Jungkook to come!! 

@0funsite0 replied: Love this!! And I always get sad that I have to wait 2 more weeks for the next one, but then I remember you have a consistent upload pattern ans schedule, which I'm extremely grateful for ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you! I’m very busy lately so it’s been hard to find time to write but hopefully during Christmas and New Year I can get a bunch written and post weekly next year 🤩 

@8loominghell replied: Thank you J for doing the Lords work 💜💜💜 I read it as JK & Yuna pulling their heads in a bit because the day isn’t about them

Thank you for reading! and yes! that’s a great way of looking at it! The day was about Oc! they can bicker next time 😂

@firesighgirl​ reblogged and said: Jordan!!! I've missed 9mtfil couple and their little bubble of happiness so much🥺 it was so funny and sweet how she started screaming for seokjin to rush and feel their daughter kicking and rolling and punching!! Such a sweet bonding experience! And I'm pretty sure that even tho oc's body is getting bigger by the day, they will find new interesting ways to have sex and enjoy themselves!Don't get me started on the baby shower,,, Yuna should definitely be a party organizer, she's amazing! I snorted so loudly with the glob spelled frosting, glob globby globette globbina🥰 and the anticlimactic yuna-jungkook meeting versus the overdramatic jimin-jungkook instant bonding🤣 Yuna watch out for your man, you have competition!!! And I loved all the presents oc got and the slow and steady growth in her relationship with her father (and who hasn't received an accidental blurry selfe by their parents?)What a bittersweet feeling of oc deciding to sell her house and move in with seokjin. It was due time for it to happen, but still I totally get her. I hope the new house has enough rooms for both their gaming room pt.2, the in home offices, the library, globbina's room and rooms for her future siblings🤭

I missed them too! and I think you’re onto something! There’ll definitely come a time when Oc just DOES NOT want to do anything remotely sexual, but until then they can get experimental lol! That’s so funny you said that about Yuna, because originally I was going to make her a party/event planner!! If she gets bored of her job she at least has a back up 😅 and OF COURSE Jimin and Jungkook would become insta best friends. I agree, they really needed to move in together, but house hunting while she’s in her third trimester is so stressy LMAO lucky for Oc tho, she has a super rich boyfriend who can speed up the process by buying a home with cash 🤑🤑

@jovanaprime reblogged and said: This post was so statisfying to read Jordan , at every page break I kept thinking oh no I’ve reached the end but it just kept going .Now why did She scare Jin like that by screaming , but to know it was their cute baby worm , wriggling about about , makes me so sappy .  Her telling Glob to kick him in the nose , so funny . This is Jin , this is DJ (me) and we both have an pregnancy sex kink ? Wow the revelations I am making here , lol . The sex scenes are nice as always .Random side note do you think you could/would ever direct an adult film or write the script .  I would support your endeavor if you so choose to do so. I don’t get how OC sees clearly how much Jin wants to be accepted and liked by everyone else but thinks it’s doesn’t apply to her and their relationship . But I like that Jin in pushing forward and voicing his wants too .Thanks to Yuna for being the annoying yet loving push BabyMama need to move forward with moving in with Jin and possibly selling her place . Thanks you for posting I had been looking forward to Season Three!

The sex scenes are an added bonus! There hasn’t been many this story and there won’t be one until the epilogue now, but yup, Jin has definitely gotten used to having sex with a pregnant Oc hehe! I can’t imagine myself ever writing or directing an adult film, I would be too prudish 😅 which might sound strange considering lol. I think both Oc and Seokjin have their own separate insecurities that have gotten better over the months but still peek out from time to time. Moving in together is a big deal, but it needed to be done, and I think they are more than ready! Thank you for letting me know your thoughts, I always love to hear them! I hope you enjoy season 3 🥰

@jjungcookie​ reblogged and said: Aaaah Glob moved for real and Seokjin felt it!! That was such a soft moment🥺🥺 By the way with the amount of time they are calling the baby Glob I bet they are going to be calling her wrong for a while hahah or maybe they could keep it and it would become a nickname! Yuna is a force of nature. Planning a baby shower in the midst of her own wedding preparations, what a woman hahah. Jungkook and Yuna meeting was a bit anticlimactic yeah but I feel that's because they felt there was a lot of expectations on their shoulders and they were pressured. It's good to hear jk and jimin hit it off though hahah. Also, who even thought to mention Seokjin ran away after finding out he was going to be a father when the mc's father was in the party🤣🤣🤣 wrong move hahah thank goodness for YeonjaAnd they are going to be living together!! They are going to choose a house together and move their things there and they will be with each other aaall the time I can't wait to see the preparations for that! It was a great chapter as always and I will be patiently waiting for the next one😊

Glob is eager for her 9mtfil debut!!! and I love the idea of keeping Glob as a nickname! I can see them doing that. Yuna is amazing! How does she do everything?! She must never sleep! Oc’s father belatedly finding out about Seokjin’s hospital escape was so evil of me LMAO but Yeonja was there to save the day! I just know that Oc and Jin will take to living together so easily! Thank you so much for reading!  

@munirecs​ reblogged and said: my parents are back 🥹i’m so happy to see their relationship progress! everything seems so calm and collected ,, am i toxic for anticipating chaos? ………. can’t wait for them to move in together! can’t wait for globby to be born omgggg … give me the complete MILF AND DILF ERAAAA PLSSSSS 

They are 🥺 you are most deffo toxic LOL There won’t be chaos as such, but something will happen soonish. But for the most part this season is very soft and sappy 😘 Can’t wait for MILF and DILF era! 

[gawin]

Took a break but we’re back in it! Let’s go Triage eps 10-11:

Gosh Tol is so moved finding Tin’s little time loop notes and glimpsing what he’s been through to try and save everything. What would you even do in the face of such levels of caring? (Well Tol is off to a good start, now he’s the one pulling up Tin’s covers while he’s asleep 🥰)

Can’t believe evil gopher really just went “Professor I have a shift at work so I don’t have time to destroy the organ trafficking evidence”

Wow, Tin seems to already be doing a premature victory lap and has transitioned to at-ease-lovey-dovey mode, with the hugs and the compliments and the adorable hand-kissing pinky promises.

Gap holding firm possession of the braincell: Hey Doi sucks and is a lying evil gopher, let’s maybe not trust him?

I really gotta wonder what Sing’s life has been like that he’s so stunningly chill and clearheaded about both taking down the secret organ trafficking ring and escaping getting tied up to be executed by said organ trafficking ring.

Sing and Gap perfectly silently coordinating to utterly beat evil gopher’s ass is a top 10 moment of the entire show easily.

OH GOD

AAAHH and now all his friends have to operate on Tin to try and save him I was JUST SAYING how Sing seems crazy unflappable and now here he is panicking because his best friend is DYING

NO NOT TIME OF DEATH 10:55 PM

Tol: Death is a lie and time travel is real. I’m not leaving this hospital until I find Jinta the angel man to save my boyfriend 

All of Tin’s friends: Hey buddy we got a nice padded room you can investigate

And always when we need him most, Jinta the angel man appears!

-

This is the most emotionally fraught “Previously on...” there’s been yet.

Jinta just be throwing his boys headfirst into the deep end. He’s gonna help, that’s a given cause he’s the best, but like hell he’s not gonna fuck with them first.

Woah, so the super bad fight Mai had with Heart actually played out as a super bad fight she had with Tol before! Hot dang I love time loop shenanigans.

Eeyyyyy, so THIS is the Tol that came to visit severely sleep deprived Tin!

He’s rewinding all the loops and now he’s in his own loop! God this rules.

I love it. Tol manages to fix ALL his own personal stuff in like 5 minutes (even Lukpair and Win chill out!) and then he’s just like “Now how do I fix whatever the hell is going on with that hospital?”

Awww, Tin came to psychically visit Tol like Tol did for him in the waiting room! (maybe the reason Jinta’s so annoyed is that when he’s not advising here he’s stuck with Tin’s ascended spirit making goo goo eyes as they watch Tol flail about in this loop)

It wouldn’t function as a loop trial if there wasn’t a challenge, especially when Tol wasn’t supposed to have one in the first place, so of course it’s a loop with elements completely different than what came before and he only gets the one try as an exception. And no version of Tol has ever had to face a Tin that didn’t care at least a little bit about him and now he has to face a Tin that barely cares about ANYTHING. This is DELICIOUS.

YES Mai! Transfer your mother! Rub it in their stupid little faces as you get her away from here! (Mai deserves more than anyone to punch evil professor and gopher in the face, but this is an acceptable substitute)

Pfft, Sing is such a sappy needy boyfriend. Makes sense that in moving everything a bit to the left this loop shifted him and Gap together, they were like the barest nudge away from it in all the previous ones.

YAY!! i’m glad you’re back!!! 🥳🥳🥳

right!! tin adores tol so much and tol deserves to know and feel that and it’s sure an overwhelming thing but so good!! 🥹🥹🥹

lmaoooo priorities ig

THE HAND KISS TOOK ME OUT 😩😩😩 so soft!! pls

and gap was right!!!

sing: these manmade horrors are unknown to YOU, i know them all

SINGGAP POWER BATTLE COUPLE AKDKSKDKKS we didn’t know we needed that until we got it

*war flashbacks* don’t even start me on tin’s death. i almost lost my mind lmaoo 💀💀💀

poor tol 😭😭😭😭😭😭 he almost lost his mind too 😭😭😭😭😭😭 but thank GOD jinta is here to help the helpless queers 🥳🥳🥳🥳

yeah, they gotta suffer first lmaoo

i love time loop shenanigans as well!! and it’s so well done in this show!!!

literally!! godddd tin and tol love each other so much they find ways to visit each other even in death and different loops and forgetfulness. like come on, jinta. i know they’re messy men but they’re clearly in love!!!

YASSSSSSS!! i love that tin and tol switch roles at the end. that it’s tol’s turn to save tin after everything. feels more balanced!! it’s not just tin doing everything!! WORK BITCH

i agree. mai should even be allowed to kill them

exactly aldkskdkks all singgap needed was a tiny nudge. they’re such lovely boyfriends 🥹🥹🥹

glad you’re still enjoying the show ❤️💙

To add some transmigration/reincarnation webtoons:

Villains are Destined to Die -- one of my all-time favorites. Woman transmigrates into the body of a villainess and does her best to stay alive. Thoughtfully done, emotions are real and vivid

Re: Trailer Trash -- old woman wakes up in the body of her 16yo self, works to undo her past regrets and achieve her dreams before she misses her chance. Not too many episodes out yet, but legitimately amazing

A Martial Master Wakes Up As A Concubine -- what it says on the tin, with a female protag who is absolutely not suited to courtesan life. Brisk pace, hidden identities, and a woman who just steamrolls past nonsense

Not Your Typical Reincarnation Story -- not many episodes out yet (light novel has a lot more, from my understanding), but an interesting take on some common tropes. How much of what people do is their own free will, and how much is forced by the plot?

Tricked Into Becoming the Heroine's Stepmother - sweet and sappy romance. A young woman wrote a story with a bunch of her friends about the exploits and drama of a duke's daughter... except now she's that girl's nanny and she can't stand the idea of letting all those bad things happen. So she takes action.

From A Knight To A Lady: in-world transmigration, the knight commander of a fallen nation wakes up in the body of a young noblewoman of the conquering country... and she's engaged to the head commander that took over her home country.

Divorcing My Tyrant Husband -- the art on this one goes from very good to amazing to just good, but the story carries it through. This woman wants a divorce, but everything she does ends up helping the emperor instead. It's like that old post about the guy who became President by accident and banned Doritos, only to find that Doritos were actually evil

Forever After - Isekai that focuses on traveling through different fairy tales, growing as a person from each... while also trying to stop the Wicked Witch from destroying it all

I Am The Villain -- around 30 episodes out so far. Young woman wakes up as the villainess in her friend's book... who also happens to look exactly like her. How does she navigate all of this while trying to get home?

Leveling Up My Husband To The Max -- ever woken up in the past and realized you never actually knew your husband? Well, this lady did, and their relationship gets much better because of it. Very fun.

Good Luck, Hero! -- honorary mention. Female hero-knight kills the demon king, is reborn as a boy in our modern world. Goes to write a book about their previous life, only to find that the demon king was also reborn. And is their boss. Ouch.

The First Knight With The Duke -- completed, very very good. Ripley wakes up as an extra in her favorite story and means to watch from the sidelines, but gets very drunk at a party, rambles about her blorbo, and ends up accidentally engaged. Funny, dramatic, and oh-so-wholesome.

I Will Live The Life of a Villainess -- why be evil when you have money? Very few episodes, but it's women supporting women

-----

Tapas

The Perks of Being an S-Class Heroine -- wake up as a child in a fantasy world, but, lucky for you, you bought the insurance package! So you've got a leg up. Child prodigy transmigrator with a heart of gold and a sense of humor.

The Perks of Being a Villainess -- you ever look at a fantasy world and go "wow, their math sucks?" Well, this lady did, and now... well, it's a work in progress.

My Brothers, The Protagonists -- a riff on all those male-lead action stories. Her brothers have come back from all sorts of horrible things (or so they claim, she thinks they're a bit knocked in the head), and she's just there trying to wrangle them all. Addresses the expectation for women to care for the men in their family, even when it doesn't make sense.

The Baengri Clan's Unwanted Daughter -- a young child worms her way into her family's heart with the power of being in the right place and the right time. Also having memories from the last time she lived this life, that helps too

The Status Window to the Soul -- ever wonder what other people think of you? Well, wonder no more, because, after dying and coming back to life as a child, this little girl can see just how much her father hates- wait. Why is his affection score so high? Could someone please explain what's going on?

The Falcon Princess -- one of my favorites. In the midst of an invasion, a fleeing princess wakes up in... the body of a bird. A military messenger bird, to be precise. With her un-bird-like intellect, can she help her country win the war?

The Crimson Lady -- Groundhog Day, but you're stuck in a fantasy romance novel and it just. Keeps. Going. Until you crack and decide that yeah, murder is an option.

The Legendary Beasts Animal Hospital -- what's a normal vet to do when mythical animals start showing up at their clinic? Besides have a panic attack, that is.

The Villainess Flips the Script -- really love this one! A woman wakes up in her favorite novel as the protagonist's abusive aunt... and decides that she's going to parent this boy properly until his long-lost uncle shows up to claim him. Then she'll have a nice retirement... except that the kid isn't willing to leave her behind. Well, if the kid needs you, the kid needs you. Or does he?

-----

Tappytoon (only one is a reincarnation/isekai/transmigration, but they're all still good)

The Rebirth of a Tyrannical Empress -- very good! When you wake up in the body of a drug-addicted despot shortly before a coup, it's a bit tricky to figure out how to keep your life intact. Even trickier to figure out what to do next.

Yuri's Palace -- fairly typical court drama, except genderbent. The emperor is an empress, the concubines are men, and it's just really interesting to see what stays the same and what doesn't.

A Villainess For The Tyrant -- one of the best, sappiest endings I've seen. Enough said.

Lethal Romance -- action-protagonist teenage girl and romance-male-lead teenage boy use their respective tropes to get each other out of trouble. Very genre-aware.

I have more if needed

Isekai with male protags: "I was a loser on earth but now I'm super fucking strong and gettin mad bitches"

Isekai with female protags:

Reincarnated princess uses earth knowledge to make magitech a thing and romances sad girl

Girl romantically pursues her video game waifu

Girl is tasked to teach actual fucking gods to be more empathetic to humans

Woman reincarnated as the daughter of a magic item crafter uses earth knowledge to advance her trade

"Straight" girl is sucked into a world with zero men and lesbians everywhere and finds out she's sapphic (there's like actual plot but the gay is what matters.... to me)

A ghibli film. Need I say more

Woman reincarnated in video game as doomed villainess desperately tries to change her story

Girl reincarnated as a tiny baby spider kills monsters to level up

Like the male protag one but the lame guy's mom got isekaid with him and she's the op one.

Two normal girls fight urban legends in terrifying danger dimension

[reservoirreputation]

A bit personal,

A bit of oversharing,

But,

2022 was a low point for me. I've had them before, but this was The Low Point. This was The Breakdown. Maybe not 'facility time' but definitely, 'oh god, I think I'm dying'.

And then I got help. And then I got on meds for anxiety. And it didn't instantly get better. In fact, from April '22 to about the end of the year, it felt like it went from 'Definitely gonna die' to 'maybe gonna die'. Just this middle ground of panic that I was hyperaware of.

And then it stopped. Like some darkest before the dawn-shit. It got better.

And the thing that makes me really look back on that and go, 'wow, my whole brain's changed' has been the sheer amount of creativity I've had this year. Specifically creative writing. 100k words in what? Three months? After years of no fandom works? And POSTING it?

And the anxiety is still there, so are the feelings of imposter syndrome, of thinking too much about what other people may think. But, holy fucking shit, my mental health's never been better (likely? possibly). I could cry from seeing the physical evidence of it.

So, the body's like a machine, it needs tune-ups. And if that check engine light comes on, don't ignore it. 'Cause I've always had anxiety, and thought it was under control, until it wasn't.

Okay, sappy PSA over, fuck off.

[veggiesandwichpana]

oh wow I got jumpscared (in a good way). do not know how to put every little thing into 5 points so very general and most likely not understandable. blocks of text under cut, you have been warned.

half written ramblings at random times. also known as those friends that will message one about anything that happened in their day that was mildly interesting. so nice getting to know people in a loose way.

music!! especially at the school I'm currently going to because they are so terrible at it, they're just messing around and having fun. It's so silly to watch but (very rarely) they'll pull off something really good every once in a while

clothes clothes clothes—I adore incomprehensible sketching mainly due to the fact that most of those I see are from notes passed around silently or on sticky notes and paper margins. Like. I have no idea what I'm looking at but I like that you doodled something

webweaves!! or mood boards, I have no idea how they work but they have little stories and tales or it's just a stranger creating something and then posting it and it's a little spark of joy

this one is so 'basic' yet it brings MUCH warmth, so. people. that's it. do not think I could say everything. I could say thousands of things and would barely have a hundredth of it all. having a best friend who despite moving away have kept in contact with; people who'll be jokingly mean to me and I can be mean to in return and there'll be no hurt feelings at the end; people who'll say that punctuation is for clarity and emphasis and you can do what you want to get your point across; people who'll have genuine discussions and make sure everybody can say their 2 cents; friends who'll sit in silence and it won't be awkward; classmates who don't know me and I don't know them but they'll still invite me to play uno; people who every day I see on my dash saying that it's okay to not know who you are and to try out different terms to describe yourself even you end up not using them; people who advocate for others while staying respectful; people who'll ask others what they like about the world we live; people who create things, whether they share them or not; people who'll be unabashedly serious politely; that one guy who ran around with a rubber duck; people who joke; again, my best friend who I don't talk with as much anymore but can reconnect with at any time wow 5 is sappy and I'm going to regret saying it in an hour but currently I like it going to bend the rules a bit to send to irl friends instead of here because I do not have enough people if I don't go past reblogging from over months ago (slight exaggeration, though I didn't expect to actually 'exist' here enough to get .@/) sorry to all the people I'm about to @/ because we definitely don't know each other in any capacity. @vinecovered-mech ; @lorefulevil ; @markdatter ; @catface233 ; @paradee-real ; @chadoe-dex I am so sorry for .@ but I believe in following the chain •—• please forgive me

"List 5 things that make you happy, then put this in the askbox for the last 10 people who reblogged something from you! get to know your mutuals and followers (ू•‧̫•ू⑅)♡" Thanks to @daydream-dryad-13, @dorianbrightmusic, and @0rchidrose for sending me this! I'll also be tagging rather than leaving in askboxes so I can better keep track of who I've sent it to.

When someone lets me know about something they think is interesting - this can be something as small as "hey look at this cool rock I found", or it can be someone explaining a topic they're interested in in considerable depth. i LOVE it when all you amazing people share interesting things with me!

People responding to stuff i've put out in the world - whether that's a "you ok?" after a vent, or a "ooh that reminds me of this!" after a blurble, or a "but hear me out, what if this" after an idea - you're telling me that a REAL PERSON not only LISTENED but JOINED IN??!? amazing.

I have recently discovered that there's a gluten-free French bakery about 15min walk from my house, and i am DELIGHTED. you're telling me there's this dude who heard we can't eat croissants, and not only did he go "damn that sucks" he went and STARTED AN ENTIRE BAKERY ABOUT IT??!? and there's sourdough?! which i haven't got to try yet cos it's only baked a few times a week and it sells fast and i'm busy but there are also ham and cheese croissants. which are ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS??!? granted, i am still suspiciously lacking in bagels specifically but I GET TO EAT CROISSANTS AGAIN AND THEY ARE DELICIOUS. this is a VERY good thing and i am VERY happy about it!

Bob Mintzer's piece Computer. The computer-y sections pop and bounce just like the inside of my brain and it's SO fun; and the opening chords never fail to bring a smile to my face. (It's now stuck in my head, which i'm looking forward to enjoying for the rest of the day!)

Silly bad jokes/puns. When someone gets me with the 'hi X, i'm name' or similar - like, fuck you (on principle) but I love it. and when i get someone in a similar way - it's just so good! another one that always amuses me is "where's my fucking [item]?" "over there next to your regular [item]" - you understand the style? yeah.

there are many other things that make me happy (singing, in general; for one) but those are 5 specific examples that came to mind! now, for the 10 people who've reblogged me most recently that haven't sent me this yet: @atimewillcomeforsinging @musicalyikes @chilly-moss @mac-attac @verycisdragon @amastelaire @astronomical-bagel @most-definitively-a-human @thefairfeline and 1 other who I can't seem to tag, so I'll leave it in their askbox instead! And anyone else that would like to join - what makes you happy, you amazing people?!

CosmicxWoobear’s 2019 Send-Off

Hello loves! I’ve had this blog for just under a year now but in this short amount of time, I can say I’ve crossed paths with some pretty amazing people! I didn’t know what to expect making a blog specifically dedicated to K-Pop. If I’m honest, I saw me talking to no one and being a shy hoe but here we are.  Sike I’m still a shy hoe/bad at communication 

I wanted to do a little something to show my appreciation to those who I’ve come to know over this past year (even if I didn’t manage much time on here in the last half of the year) and wish everyone a beautiful send off into 2020 😄

_____________________________________________________

@lluyangyang ~ Em, we were talking before this blog even existed but I’m so happy to have connected with you. You’re an absolute blast of a friend and your writing is on another level 💕💞 I love you my little gremlin child 👹

@janarine ~ Janabear 🥰 You were the first person I really really connected with through this blog. I’m so incredibly happy that one message blossomed into a tight relationship, we seem to really get one another 😌 Thanks for helping me through the tough times I had this year. I hope I was capable of doing the same for you 💖🌷

@malf-y ~ Remember me, funky cowboy? 👀🤠 You were one of the first people I had the guts to message when I first started this blog and even though you’ve remade and trailed a bit off of k-pop, I stuck with ya cause I think you’re pretty cool 💛

@visualgiggles ~ Sammy, we didn’t talk much throughout this year but I love seeing you on my dash showing your love and appreciation for Sungie 🌈✨ Keep up those beautiful edits, yeah? There’s a lot of people who enjoy them 💞

@queenkia3200 ~ I was your skz event anon over the summer and even though I didn’t do my best to stay in touch I enjoy seeing you on my dash when you post 💗 I hope the New Year treats you well 💕✨

@geekofdidney ~ When I think of your URL I instantly think ATEEZ 😌 We never talked one on one but I enjoy seeing your positive presence grace my dash so that’s why I found you a spot here 💕

@chnsmas ~ Gryph, my Bang Chan fanatic, my zodiac bub, one of my few moots 💗🌻 Seeing you on my dash makes my day, I’m happy to be able to know you in this lifetime, stay cool 🤙🏻

@justasimplefangirl ~ Hiii Tannie 😄 we followed each other not so long ago and haven’t conversed much besides through asks but I think you’re pretty cool! I’m sure you’re still waiting on part 2 of that Jisung fic, it’ll be out soon now that I’m back 🌷💫

_____________________________________________________

Some of my favorite gfx creators and content creators in general, because fandoms aren’t the same without fanart, edits, fanfics, and just the lot of passionate people like you 💛

@ateeztiny 🌻 @iknowsongbutidontknowsongname 🌻 @chimneycloud 🌻 @flynns-drawings 🌻 @hearttoshu 🌻 @seungminsmile 🌻 @hoodiehan 🌻 @odetteab 🌻 

_____________________________________________________

I did hit a milestone a few months back as well. To those of you who follow me, whatever the reason, I appreciate you all 💛 I started this blog after discovering my love for k-pop and I didn’t really know where this would go. I didn’t think I’d get very far or reach many people and really, I didn’t care about that. I was here to have fun and enjoy the music, groups, and vastness of Korean pop. I wanna wish all of you a safe and beautiful New Year. After all is said and done, I can say I’ve walked into a new century with new friends, good health, and a passion to keep moving forward on my journey in life. I can only hope that all of you will join me on your own journeys 💕

“do you think it’s scary?”

warnings: angst

kagami taiga x reader

a/n: 🎧 anon if you’re out there, this is for you

you both agreed.

you both agreed that this will be your last day together, and after that you’d move on with your lives without each other. at this point, your relationship was far too damaged that it was beyond its fixing point; all the yelling, insults, betrayal all accumulated until it was too much. and that’s why you both agreed to spend one last day together, because despite the hurt, you guys loved each other endlessly.

“wow, i am so full,” you said, stretching your arms up into the air as the chilly air tickled your tummy. “maji burgers never fail.”

“i could go for round two, honestly.” kagami replied, walking next to you with his hands behind his head. “follow me, i wanna take you somewhere.”

“where?”

“don’t ask questions, just come.” he grabbed your hand and led you through the streets, where the city was glowing with its lights and stars. you remembered when you first moved here and you instantly fell in love with the lively part of town, but all that city noise that were ringing in your ears slowly quieted down, and suddenly you were in front of a ravine with a small hill.

“this is where you asked me out after school, yeah?” you giggled, sitting down on the hill. kagami followed right after you and put his arm around you, your instant reaction being laying on his shoulder.

“the day’s ending.” he mumbled, still staring onto the ravine. little fishes were jumping high and low.

“mhm,” you nuzzled into the crook of his neck. “it is.”

“do you remember what i said when i first asked you out?” he snickered. “that i’d take care of you because i’m big, bad, and bold.”

“that was stupid,” you teased. “you’re anything but big, bad, and bold— you’re like a little baby.”

“am not!” he huffed. “but i’m sorry, y/n. i..” he gulped, “i couldn’t live up to that. i couldn’t take care of you like i said i would.”

“oh don’t get sappy on me,” you turned your head to look at him, “you took very good care of me, taiga. in fact, you were like my babysitter. y/n, don’t do this, y/n, this is not good for you. honestly though, i’m thankful for it.”

it was silent for a bit, thoughts racing through both of your heads as it was the only thing you both heard. your mind spiralled to all the good things you and kagami been through, from the time seirin got their first win to when you were sick and he stayed with you the entire time— he even slept on the floor just so he can keep an eye on you. and when you told him that he won’t get sleep like that, he said that he’d at least suffer from sleep deprivation because it was nothing to what you were feeling. oh how times have changed since then. because here you both were, spending everything together for one last time.

“today was fun,” you muttered. and it was true; there was no fight, you guys went to play at an arcade, went bowling, watched a movie, and feasted at a cheap fast food place (maji burger) like it was your last meal— that place will always be you and his place.

he nodded, and you continued. “i’m really sorry for everything, taiga.” despite the lump forming in your throat, you kept going, “i wasn’t a very good girlfriend, was i? i don’t know what happened, to be honest.”

kagami pursed his lips, “we just lost ourselves in this relationship. that’s all— it was both of our faults, and,” his voice croaked, “and i guess the love wasn’t enough.”

tears slipped from your eyes, “gosh, i wish i could turn back time and do everything again. i don’t want this to end. i don’t want to lose you.”

“i wish too, y/n. but things don’t work like that.” he checked his phone, which read 11:30 PM, “it’s getting late, we have to go soon.”

“do you think it’s scary?”

“what is?” he questioned.

“to be without each other. do you think it’s scary? i don’t know what to do after this.” kagami stood up, taking both of your hands and hoisted you up. he bent down and cupped your cheeks, and brought his forehead to yours, connecting both of your warmths. “yeah, i think it is.” he came closer, “and i can’t imagine my life without you. but we both know we need this, or we’ll stay..” he paused before hesitantly answering, “we’ll stay unhappy. and y/n, i never, ever, want to hate you. you are so important to me and i want you to be the happiest you can be. i want you to live freely without any regrets; try that new dessert place. go to bali and have fun. get another chance at falling in love with someone who will give you the world because i couldn’t.”

you were crying harder, sobs filling the void as you hugged him one last time. he rubbed your back and wept into your hair, shaking softly as he didn’t wanna let you go. internally, he was breaking apart, because to him you were more than anything else he held dear.

“i’m so sorry,” you cried, “i’m so so sorry.”

“i’m sorry, too.”

“i’ll always love you,” you hiccuped, “no matter what, i will always love you. whether you get married to another girl or i get married to another guy, i will always think about you. when i wake up, before i sleep, fuck— even in my dreams. you’re my forever even if we weren’t meant for it.”

he smiled. smiled at you through his glassy eyes, the smile he first showed you when he first told you he loved you.

unfortunately your relationship with him was beyond repair, but the love will always be something legendary.

“and you know i’ll love you for the rest of my life too, y/n.”

“thank you for everything. thank you for loving me.”

ok im acc sobbing now. like tears full on streaming and shit. im crying.

anyways i hope this was good :’)
