#or jumin has to suffer

"He knows how to socialize" you mean he has forcibly learned through trial, error, and study the things that get good feedback and the things that cost him and his company severe hardship (lost deals, ruining of financial relationships, scorn from his parents) by virtue of the position he was born into???
Not long ago I saw someone say Jumin can't be autistic because he "knows how to socialise" and that is a very bold statement because listen. When he's working he is masking. He's following rules and scripts. He's being formal and using taught etiquette and applying tried and tested business strategies. He has figured out how he should be handling surface interactions but has made one actual friend off his own back in 27 years and everyone else he is close to he is close to through association. He struggles with empathy and he rubs people the wrong way by being too blunt in times where it's inappropriate then not understanding what he did wrong. He gets people to explain jokes to him and has a very dry and literal sense of humour that a lot of people don't find funny. Part of his public image is that he's aloof and keeps to himself. And you think he has no social difficulties?
#OP says everything better than I do but#whoever said this clearly has never met a ND person oh my lord or they use autistic criteria from 1980#Jumin doesn't like trains so he isn't autistic /s#rebagel#Sorry but Jumin's brand of humor and the coping mechanisms he has developed with his ableist parents are VERY similar to me#So I take this personally#My parent basically reprimanded me whenever I would stim and drilled into me after EVERY social interaction what I did wrong#So yeah I know how to mask! but I haven't felt joy in years and I have no sense of self!!!!#ableist 'fans' can gtfo because most of the RFA is autistic adhd or suffers from ptsd#Mod mumbles

i'd love to hear your interpretation of the day 8 call ("You don't give up do you?") on Saeyoung's route! that has to be my favorite call, especially the end lolol
I mean, if anything, this is a representation that goes against the idea that Saeyoung "suddenly becomes a big meanie in his route and he's not playing games with me anymore, he's such a jerk! The time we've spent with him in the apartment is awful because he isn't the silly guy on the game previews!"
I really don't care for people who talk about him that way. If you only value him because he's silly, then you don't actually value him at all as a person. That's why you drive right into the bad ending, figuratively and literally. If you don't value his emotions and allow him to come to terms with what just happened to him, then you don't like Saeyoung.
Saeyoung just realized he sold his life away for NOTHING. Rika and V promised him that Saeran would be safe, and now he's just learned it was a lie. It was all a lie. His brother isn't safe, he's suffering in horrible ways that Saeyoung can't even begin to imagine because every time he closes his eyes, he wants throw up at the thought of Saeran being forced to learn how to hack and hurt others.
He traded his autonomy away to give his brother a chance at a free life, and not even a perfectly free life, a life that could be as free as he could have been given the circumstances. Saeyoung did it because thought the sacrifice would be worth it and threw away everything for nothing. It was for nothing because his brother has no nothing but misery.
Can you imagine what it must feel like to sacrifice everything and realize it was for nothing? Do you think anybody in his position will be silly and goofy? No. That's not even the entirety of his being. He is not just some guy who likes to play pranks on people. The RFA is his family, and he’s accepted they’ll be the only family he’ll ever have because he can’t be with Saeran. So, he looks over them and does all kinds of things to lift their spirits.
He got Yoosung into LOLOL.
He runs Twitter bots for Zen.
He hangs out with Jaehee and lets her vent about work.
He’s aware that Elizabeth’s collar has SENSITIVE INFORMATION on it, and is constantly pressing Jumin to up his security.
Sure, he plays around and pokes fun at everybody, and yes, that’s a part of who he is. But, if you only believe he's a silly prankster, then you have spent no time reflecting on why he's wearing a mask and settling it in the first place.
Saeyoung Choi is a multifaceted person and he isn’t just a joke. He's a compassionate man who will do anything and everything to take care of the people he loves, he loves going out for drives, he loves working on robotics, he can make up a story on the spot about the stars, he loves cosplay and cross-dressing, he loves so many things and he could spend three hours explaining his love of language and linguistics to you if you ASKED.
He is serious and if he's trying to piece together a plan, he's going to have a contingency ready for his contingency. He's ready for anything you throw at him. He can hold a conversation at length about any subject you throw at him and he will enjoy it far more than you think he will.
He's stubborn to a fault. He can be clingy and paranoid at his worst. Sometimes his anger gets the better of him and he says things without thinking. But, that's what makes him human, with all his faults, flaws, and aspirations. There is so much more to him than being a jokester and if you don't understand that, you're not paying attention to what's happening during your time in the apartment.
All of this is to say that it's not okay that he's mean to you in the apartment, but a lot of people tend to blow what he's doing out of proportion. If you are actively calling him throughout the day and listening to what he says, it is so obvious that he is lying through his teeth. He may be the best liar in the world when it comes to his work in the agency, but when it comes to you, he is the worst liar I have ever seen in my entire life.
He cannot hide how much he cares about you. When he thinks you're not eating he goes out of his way to make sure he orders every kind of sandwich imaginable just in case you have a picky palette. When you leave the apartment to get something for him, he gets upset with you, not because he's angry with you, but because he hates that you're not thinking of your safety when his brother could have really hurt you even if it hurts him to admit that.
And, you know what happens in this phone call? He sees you crying and he immediately folds. It doesn't matter how frustrated he is with the fact that his life is built on a lie, he still wants to comfort you because you make him happy no matter how afraid he is to admit that.
When it comes down to it, he's just afraid of letting you into his life because the last time he had somebody close to him that he would do anything for, they suffered. He just watched what happened to his brother all because he cared about him and thought he could trust his brother with people who didn't give him a reason not to trust them.
The only reason he tries to push you away is because he's afraid of you getting hurt like his brother. He can't stomach what happened to his brother as it is, but the thought of watching another person he loves suffering isn't something he can stand. If you work with him and give him the space he needs, then he'll apologize to you and realize that he can't live his life this way forever.
He can't deny himself happiness for the rest of his life just because he's afraid to make a leap. This call shows he can't lie about anything when it comes to you no matter how hard he tries. He could lie to the rest of the world but he could never lie to you.
My favorite part is the way his voice trembles near the end of the phone call and he asks you if it's okay to Hold Your Hand despite everything.

Mystic Messenger Relationship Headcannons!!
[Yoosung, Jaehee, Zen, Seven/Saeyoung, Jumin]
SFW!! Romantic relationship headcannons, implied fem!reader. Also I slightly stray from good ending lore.
Tw:Life360/j
Also sorry if there's typos I don't feel like checking 😭
Yoosung 💚
Yoosung is the type of boyfriend to never stop being nervous around you. It doesn’t matter if it's because of his physical attraction to you, or just because he values your opinion so much.
He looks away from you a lot, feeling slightly insecure about his eye, but you always find a way to make him feel like the most handsome man in the world.
He has clammy hands 😭
Study dates (even if you're not a student)
Getting distracted really easily during said study dates, so they during into normal hangout sessions lol
Yoosung taking you to conventions!! You'll have to train him to get good at taking pics of you and ppl with cool cosplay fits. (Or even your own cosplay)
Lots of homemade meals when he has the time outside of school.
He is a chronic reel sender, but he only sends you nice cutesy ones. Some memes, but nothing too brain rot inducing.
Lots of rants from him about literally anything, and pouting. (This is mainly caused by Seven or Uni.)
Late night convenience store trips.
Lots of campus walks, or just attending campus events. Once again even if you're not a student you will def get some idea of Uni life while dating Yoosung.
While he's staying up late playing games you play on your switch, read, or watch Netflix. Just enjoying each other's company.
Yoosung crawling into bed, upset over a loss. He'll either join you in watching your show or watch you play your game/watch you reading.
Back seat gamer 🫠
Finally dealing with a panicked Yoosung duing finals season, because y'alls study dates were very counter productive.
Taking him to a cat cafe to comfort his L on his exams.
Jaehee 🤎
SHE GIVES THE BEST HEAD SCRATCHES!!
I feel like she wouldn't be big on touch as her love language, and not a fan of PDA. Partially out of concern of homophobes AND she just doesn't fuck with PDA like that. (However this doesn't stop you from a quick kiss on the cheek to see her blush.)
While she's not outwardly nervous around you, it is very easy to fluster her.
Once again, even tho she might not be big on touch she WILL NOT say no to a shoulder massage. I just know she carries so much tension in her shoulders.
You get to help her pick out new glasses every couple of years. They all stay pretty similar/simple.
You drag her to go get her nails done with you. (You just want her to practice self care 🥺🥺)
I fear Jaehee might suffer from beige/brown blindness and you really might need to help her with her interior design of everything 😭
Even though Jaehee would def love her cafe, I'm sure she'll still get exhausted from managing it. I feel like outside of work, she'll lean on you for a lot of the little decisions (like dinner, casual dates, etc...).
Will always come to you for fashion advice, for example when she grows out her hair she consults you about adding layers.
You introduce her to pinterest 🤭 she makes the best boards
Theater/Seeing Zen act dates lol
Getting dinner with Jaehee and Zen after, and both of you making him the best bouquet for him. (Zen loves his lesbian besties 💀💀)
You're the professional taste tester for new treats at Jaehee's Cafe.
Jaehee deals with all the Karen's/dickheads that occasionally find their way to the cafe 🙄
I luv cozy Baehee 🥰
Zen 🩶
Zen needs a LOT of attention. Seriously, it can get to be a bit much, but with some communication, he'll def learn to give you a break.
He seriously does melt at your compliments though, like a fan could say the exact same shit but it wouldn't hit the same because they're not you.
He made up needing one kiss for good luck before auditions/plays. But because he's in the theatre world he definitely started to believe his own lie because of one time you couldn't give him a kiss, and he slightly stumbled on his words. So now he NEEDS 3 kisses for good luck.
He's slightly a control freak (I'm being a bit nice here lmao) like mainly when it comes to wanting you to have the same health regiment as him.
Sassy man apocalypse 😵💫 like petty arguments are scary between reader and him.
Yall will definitely experience fancy, extravagant dates but I think Zen will mostly prefer and put the most effort into super casual/"normie" dates.
He would do cute tiktok trend shit too. Like the boo basket, or whatever else (I can't remember other trends)
Speaking of tiktok he would def post you and him doing cute shit.
You guys get a puppy after getting engaged/marriage and that will literally be y'alls first baby for the first few years of marriage.
Zen is touchy 😳
Zen let's you braid his hair on at home spa night.
Wait what was that? At home spa nights? Yes. Face masks, wine/champagne, whatever you want. Soft music in the background, lots of gossip.
He also wouldn't say no to you painting his nails 😗, not a promise he'll keep it on for very long though.
He wants you to do the bf blue nails, tho. you'll do it the first time, but once you remove the polish because it chipped, he expects you to do it again. (He is so serious)
"Y/n how will men know you have a boyfriend if your nails aren't blue"
"I don't think the average man knows about the bf blue nail trend..."
"Well, still 🤕 please paint them blue again"
Y'all go on summer getaways to detox from his fame. Maybe a nice few weeks in the Maldives, or a visit to a small Japanese town.
Seven/Saeyoung ❤️
Not even going to lie, Seven boarders being negligent and also a handful. It slightly gives you whiplash the first year of dating but once you help him with his work habits, it'll get better 👍👍.
He's not intentionally negligent at all!! He just gets really busy work and will hyperfocus on it. His thought process is that the fewer breaks he takes, the quicker it'll get done, but it'll end up in him accidentally ignoring you for a day.
He's good at apologies and making things up to you. There's never a dull moment with Saeyoung!!
Like Yoosung, he's a chronic reel sender, but it's cursed brain rot shit. He'll pout if you don't like each one just to mess with you.
He loves to take you on rides in his cars 🤭 especially if you're dressed up really cute. He feels like he might combust from joy. His lovely gf, and cool ass cars. 10/10 activity.
PDA with Seven is a little dangerous... hah, he's just used to being isolated all the time, so he doesn't realize constantly touching can be a bit much for others lmao. (He also just wants to show you off)
He's then put in "holding hands jail" as he calls it. And if you thought Yoosung could whine, Seven really takes the cake on this one.
Constantly asking for back rubs bc of his horrible posture. And quite frequently needs nurse reader because there's no way you're convincing me he doesn't get chronic stomach aches of eating only chips and soda 💀
You're his only hope in eating real meals.
Sitting on his lap during work 🥰
Stealing his jacket, but he gen can't tell if he's annoyed or loves you wearing it. This results in playfights over the jacket.
Board games with Saeran and him 🥺
Prank wars... this is hell for everyone in your life.
After a peace treaty to prank wars, you two become prank warlords and the rfa (yoosung) is y'alls victim.
Seven needs you in order to sleep, so if you're not sleeping he isn't 😗😗
You are his partner in crime so seriously if he has free time he will insta flock to you and beg to do something fun. Even if you're the busy one now...
Jumin 💜
Okay so there's a venn diagram of Jumin and Yoosung when it comes to the reader being their first love. Yoosung is pathetic and cute, Jumin is "nonchalant"....... However, in the middle, they are both so serious from day one in "dating to marry" 😭. Yoosung is a bit more blind puppy love with it, whereas I don't think Jumin would date anyone without seriously wanting to marry them later on.
Tldr: Jumin's feelings toward the relationship itself is intense.
I feel like it would realistically be a slow roll to him being needy. He would want to be responsible but also loving so he'll take you on nice, fancy dates. But after the first few it slightly sucks the intimacy from the dates.
He would feel it in himself because he would end up feeling unsatisfied after the dates, but he'll also notice slight disappointment from you after the same cookie cutter fancy restaurant date. He just needs more of you, and that idea slightly worries him.
Not that he thinks it's a bad thing he just doesn't want to be a freak 💀 for a lack of better words.
Feeling awkward he would ask what you'd like to do, and when he gets a "let's just have a movie night at your place!! Maybe we can make pizza too 🥰" he's a little taken aback.
1. He's not a big movie person
2. Were you going to spend the night? Was it appropriate for you to spend the night?
3. He doesn't know how to feel about pizza
4. You want to make it? Yourself?
He keeps 1, 2, and 3 to himself but he does ask for clarification about the pizza.
But once he was in the first 15 mins of the date, the intimacy was definitely there now that yall weren't in an uppity restaurant with no privacy.
During the whole date yall got to talk, and laugh and actually enjoy each other's company in a casual setting. He watched you watch the movie, and he loved seeing you play with Elizabeth the 3rd.
After a few weeks and more casual dates mixed with his kind of dates, he finally asks you to move in because he is surprisingly (to himself) desperate to have you at his home.
This would lead to a marriage proposal swiftly after you move in. He can only bend so many social rules before he starts to feel like a mad man.
Saving wedding details for wedding headcannon.
Jumin has an odd sense of humor so there's many moments where you don't catch on to his joke. Be even if you're late to understanding you still end up laughing.
He loves your laugh, it's his favorite sound equal to Ellie's purrs.
He smiles a lot more thanks to you infecting his brain.
Lots of late nights getting drunk in the kitchen, talking about life and the RFA.
Business man gossip (he does not consider this gossip and if you claim it is he will adamantly deny it.)
Ofc the obvious you are very very spoiled. Almost to the point where you have had a conversation with Jumin, letting him know he doesn't need to buy you all kinds of stuff.
(He still buys you the same amount of stuff, but he puts some time in between gifts)
No matter how much money he spends on you, his time with you is the most valuable thing and when you tell him this he may or may not add some extra vacation days just to hang out with you and Ellie 🥰
He also has many scares if you're out late or if you had to travel somewhere else for work or to visit family. He calls a lot, even during work, because he's really paranoid after the events in the game that you might encounter danger again when you're away from him. (This results in life360 for ease of mind, lmfao).

I am so fucking insane about kim yoosung. He has been my favourite mysme guy and he will always be. People who dislike him will always make me upset since i find most of them lacking compassion towards people dealing with grief and loss
But lately I find myself get very angry towards him. Especially after I played his route this April to get his Normal Ending and I happen to notice some things about him
Kim yoosung is a chronic people pleaser and that hurts my soul. It hurts me whenever I express my dislike towards some of the things he might enjoy and he decides to never touch that thing ever again...all because I said I dont like it. It hurts my soul because I dont want people to change themselves for me...and lose their individuality....I am someone who values individuality and seeing him lose himself for me is painful.
His tendency to self sacrifice and risk his life now makes me angry. My feelings towards the concept of sacrifice is very ambivalent. In my culture where women are always expected to put others before themselves I grew up feeling a sense of shame because I had been unable to do so. Yet this concept feels very toxic to me as I have watched mothers growing agitated and abusive towards their children when they dont feel like they have been "paid back" enough by them. From an early age I have learnt that self sacrifice often comes with strings attached and eventually becomes a tool of perpetuating abusive cycles.
I do believe Yoosung is not the type who would engage in hurting others for his self sacrificial tendencies- not in the way I talked about because he chose to be that way. Men are not really expected to do things Yoosung usually engages in (being a helping hand to your partner in domestic activities, cooking and putting himself and his own well being before your partners most of the time).
But it still does not stop feeling painful to me. He risks his life and loses an eye. In one bad ending he gets tortured and God knows what else happens and takes the abuse with pride. I cannot see my partner in so much pain. I dont want to be widowed within the first six months of marriage. It hurts me that he feels the need to constantly prove to deserve my love. It hurts that he will never see how much he means to me as much I mean to him. "I just wanted to protect you-" SHUT UP SHUT UP.
Going back to the point where I mentioned how he takes the abuse in his 3rd Bad Ending with a smile. Him being so vulnerable to get into abusive relationship and even being prone to tolerate abuse and romanticise the abuse he tolerates makes me so upset. The Bad Ending 1 is a clear proof of that and how much he easily forgives people who hurt him all the time albeit being well intentioned is also another proof. Zen himself says "yoosung is too nice to make jumin suffer the consequences of his actions".
This very much drives me insane. His overall tendency to neglect himself for a crumb of affection and his fear of being abandoned makes me so angry at him. It ignites an urge in me to protect this boy from every danger. Perhaps I am projecting a bit since I feel like being able to protect Yoosung or someone like him will heal my inner child (who has been failed by most adults around them).
Its past 2 am at night and I am crying over my beloved fictional boy.

Mystictober Day 18-- Antagonist/DLC
Unknown comes to rescue you following Jumin’s BSE2 (832 words).
When the window breaks, you expect the alarm to sound. It doesn’t. You also expect Jumin to come running— when he doesn’t, you’re reminded of the work he ordered recently to soundproof your bedroom. At the time, you thought this was a smart decision, but now, you’re beginning to regret allowing him to proceed. He wouldn't have heard the glass shattering unless he was outside, and in that case, he’d be calling out for you to run. Well, you don’t need anybody to tell you to do that— without even checking behind you for the source of the sound, be it a rock thrown from ground level of a prodigiously buff pigeon, you make for the door.
“Ah-ah,” scolds a chilling voice behind you, “That won’t work, prince(ss).”
You tug on the door handle with more urgency, and find, to your horror but not to your surprise, that the door is locked. Jumin installed a safety lock protocol controlled by a panel just outside your door— but he’d have no reason to engage it on a random Friday morning. Certainly not without telling you.
But then, something occurs to you. First, the alarm ‘malfunctioned,’ and then the door followed suit… all while an intruder was breaking into your home. That can’t be a coincidence. It seems that you’re the victim of a nefarious plot carried out by an intruder with intimate knowledge of the building’s security system. This person would have to be a very skilled hacker, not to mention incredibly confident. “Who… are you?” you turn around to face the stranger.
He’s leaning against the wall beside your ruined window, a smug expression on his handsome face. He looks vaguely familiar. “Didn’t you figure that out by now?” He drawls.
“Seven?” You ask. Recognition has clicked in your mind.The man’s facial features are undeniably identical to those of your friend— but you quickly abandon this idea when an expression of pure, unadulterated rage crosses the man’s face. “No. He’d never do this,” you correct yourself.
Seven expressed some concern the last time you spoke to him about your relationship with Jumin, but nobody with as many secrets as 707 would dare to cross the heir to C&R. If Seven tried to steal you away, Jumin could hire the best hackers in the country, if not in the world, to track him down.
“That’s right, prince(ss).” The intruder’s tone is chillingly restrained as he crosses the broken glass to pin you against the useless door. “He’d never come to rescue you like this. He’d rather let you suffer.”
“Rescue me?” You’re baffled. “From what?”
Jumin already does so much to protect you from harm. He barely even lets you out of his sight— if there was something dangerous in your life, he already would’ve had his people take care of it. And you certainly aren’t suffering in this place. Sure, you miss your friends in the RFA, but you still get to see them sometimes. Jaehee visits occasionally, and you even get to play LOLOL with Yoosung. You definitely don’t need to be rescued, and least of all by this guy.
The stranger just laughs. “Are you really so brainwashed that you think you like being locked up in here by that guy? He thinks you belong to him or something.”
“I do—”
“No,” The stranger with Seven’s face corrects you. His eyes are different, too, now that you’ve gotten close enough to make them out. Seven never mentioned having any siblings, but then again, he always kept a lot of secrets, so you can’t really be surprised. “You already belong to me. I’m the one that sent you to the RFA in the first place. Now, I’m taking you back.” His firm grip on your wrist tells you that you don’t have much of a choice.
“Unknown?” His name pops into your mind.
“You remember,” he sounds pleased. “Good.”
“I’ll scream,” you warn, “And Jumin will come running.”
Unknown laughs. “Jumin is meeting with the sommelier.” This type of meeting could only take place in the wine cellar, which means neither of them would hear you if you scream. And he let the butler go last week, after he already got rid of the housekeeper two months ago. Nobody else is here. “You know what that means, right?”
“Yes.” You may as well resign yourself to your fate. Kicking and screaming will only put you in more danger, if you truly have no way out of this. Besides, Jumin will be able to find you again, won’t he?
“Don’t worry,” Unknown ruffles your perfectly styled hair, eviscerating all the work you put into it this morning with a single touch. “I’ll take better care of you than that guy does. Now, come on, before the C&R gets back into their server and turns on the alarm, mhm?”
You shouldn’t follow him, but you do. As usual, you trust that everything will work out for the best.

💚✨ 💚 Yoosung Kim 💚 ✨💚
★A mirror of sadness: depression, grief & isolation★
After reading this post, I feel like I've been slapped lol he's really more than I gave him credit for, which is why I'm going to add something I learned while I was studying how to write better but whatever... let's get into it.
There's a thing called Foils, Simultaneous contrast and doppelgangers which I'm starting to study in Literature.
So, the thing with Yoosung is that he's there to allow the others shine too. As it's expressed by @yooseven-heaven , he's our mentor, but also, it is important to the whole game in a different way.
You'll see, foils are "opposite" characters. That are there to highlight others either by flaws or skills. So in a way, Yoosung is Jaehee foil. If he was hardworking (or if he lets us know he is hardworking) Jaehee suffer would never be as meaningful as it is, so in hindsight we would never understand Jaehee enough for us to point it out to Jumin. Because his behavior was quite deplorable with her.
But he is not Jumin either, if he was to be as skilled, rich or smooth as the others, the others wouldn't shine through. And also, it is thanks to him that we are told not to overwork ourselves. Several times during the whole game. So if you feel down you just have to look at him for some encouragement. And yes, Zen tells you that too. But he is one of those who doesn't do as its told. He drinks beer, doesn't even eat properly. Let me remind you it's Yoosung who actually eats better than Zen lol so, in a way, Yoosung existence helps Zen to tell us we should eat properly and sleep when its needed... or play games! Ironically I can see a bit of a parallel with these two though I have yet to acquire these endings (i'm too much of a coward lol)
Anyways Jaehee is so busy she can't actually say anything because of that. He also helps the player (at least it has helped me several times lol because I don't want to be like him and complain all day about stuff.) to get over everything faster.
Plus, if you look a bit into his past we are told that he was actually an excellent student, quite popular among girls too and he even rejected several girls under the impression that he would be able to date them in college. And then maybe he would but Rika's death happened. So he would definitely be a great boyfriend material at that time but not after that. What happened to him was basically, depression. But who wouldn't get depressed after all that? Even the song says it so: I miss Happy Rika
What if Happy Rika doesn't only refers to Rika but Yoosung itself?? Just a thought.
Now let's talk about Simultaneous Contrast. And because I suck with explaining these concepts i'm gonna leave a quote I heard from a great video analysis on Jane Austen characters, the video itself and an image where i'm summarizing everything up:
Quote:
Everything you see affects everything you see. So by nature we are always choosing the middle ground.
Image:
Video:
youtube
So on one side we have Jaehee, Zen and Jumin who are always working and on the other side we have Yoosung. In middle we have Seven. Who is really hardworking too, but also tends to lose a lot of time playing around. Now keep in mind that while I did say he was trying to mirror us (since we're the ones who are playing the game and so is he) he also has his own persona to add to this mix so it's not disappearing entirely under that mirror.
And this is why Yoosung is important as a character and can stand his own ground.
(Sorry I didn't went into a lot of detail with all the depression and mourning but those things are heavily triggering for me right now so I won't be able to fulfill it properly. Maybe I'll come back from time to time and add a line or two if I can gather my thoughts.)

Ok Saeran AE good ending dump, here are some random thoughts
The president plot was ended really underwhelmingly, but I'm glad that although Saeran chose to forgive him, the writers are aware this isn't something anyone can do and let saeyoung continue hating him. Honestly, forgiving or not forgiving him aside, I just didn't like the way they made the president go 'ah.. you're right maybe I am a lonely bad guy' LIKE NO WAY THAT ASSHOLE CARES ABOUT THAT, I couldn't take any dialogues seriously
First of all. Why the fuck is jumin han a politician all of a sudden 😭 And like, forget being a politician, he is a candidate for presidency??????? Am I reading it right?? How exactly..???
Anyway I FORGOT ABOUT YOOSUNG AT PATISSIER AWWWW It's so nice to see him find himself even if this is saeran's route! You're doing so good love <3 I was gonna say it doesn't make sense that they made him chase his patissier dream when in his own route he thinks about why he wants to become a vet and decides to go that way, but I realized, since another story is 2 years before the casual one I guess he felt more free about leaving his medical studies 😭 he was able to change his path more easily because he just started school, and also he doesn't have a lover like mc in korea unlike his route so that might also affect his choices. But I think he's happy in either ending so I'm glad <33
They did well with Yoosung but. why didn't Jaehee get the same treatment. I don't get it. They were clever enough to remember other characters' goals and worries and made them happy in this AE, except for Jaehee. I wish they made her leave her position too, since Jumin Han is now involved with politics it could be the perfect excuse for Jaehee to stop being his assistant. I'm guessing that this is also because AS is 2 years earlier, which means Jaehee hasn't suffered in her job enough to leave yet, and she probably doesn't have the money to open a coffee shop anyway (she isn't even into coffee professionally yet although she said she was interested a bit) But idk I wish they left us a clue that Jaehee will also get to find her happiness in the future 😭😭
Another thing I'm confused about is that where the hell does saeran get money from 😭😭 how are we 'lovey dovey at some place romantic'😭 Saeyoung probably has more than enough money so he might have forced Saeran to have it all lol that's the only explanation I can think of. In the alternate ending Saeran has a greenhouse (considering that he said himself to be careful of people raising herbs in the wild I find this funny but well ofc it's the dream job for saeran) but I'm not sure what we're supposed to be doing in this ending lol
Like, apparently we're hippies now?? Feel love and peace~~
Saeran AE has its problems, but I still love it anyway and I'm not sure how they would be able to make a good ending differently, so I'll just take the good stuff and leave out the bad writing lol I remember going crazy about new illusts in 2020,,, can't believe it's been 3 years already. Happy new years btw I guess? 🌱 Idk how to end this post

The Silent Discovery over the Nature of Loving
Summary: Jihyun Kim did not believe in soulmates.
Rating: T - Suitable for teens, 13 years and older, with some violence, minor coarse language, and minor suggestive adult themes.
Words: 2300
Notes: So, I’m thinking this is a half-way Jihyun. The kind of who has let go of Rika, but hasn’t truly freed himself of the thought processes that had gotten him in that situation.
Jihyun Kim did not believe in soulmates.
It sounds rich coming from him, of all people, but he did not. It was always an idiosyncrasy in his friendship with Jumin that bitterly amused him: one, a free-spirited artist that was too much of a realist when it came to relationships, and the other, a cutthroat capitalist that nurtured romantic sensibilities.
Though, perhaps it is not properly a lack of faith or belief in soulmates, but rather a pragmatic view. He believed that love was not that world of rosy fairy tales and sunshine that everyone seemed to believe it was, but suffering and sacrifice. He thought that, with enough disposition, he could love just about anyone, so the notion of “fated one and only” seemed false. He did not see how one single person could complete a life. He believed that there was more to it than finding such a thing.
In Rika, he thought he found his version of a soulmate. After all, he loved her in that manner, she excited his senses and she made him suffer. They felt tethered to each other, like two stars rotating the same axis, destined to a collision of galactic proportions. It sounded a lot like how the discourse surrounding it all seemed to go.
He was wrong, of course, about Rika, though he still nurtured the underlying notion about love. Even now, after all he has been through, he still holds those beliefs, and his conviction does not seem to waver.
Then, there was her. MC.
A smile large enough to replace the sun and moon and all the stars in the sky. A soft glow in her eyes whenever she met his lingering stare. Crinkles framing them when her grin greeted her eyes. An angelic dusting of blush upon her cheek when she did.
That woman feels like she is truly the picture of beauty to him. So much so it almost hurt. Quickly, without he being none the wiser, she had slipped into his mind like a thief in the night, kicking out the old permanent tenant that once inhabited there. She has stolen his thoughts and taken his heart with it.
When it was all said and done, after he was discharged from his surgery, Jihyun wanted to leave. He wanted to be alone and heal himself away from everything and everyone, somewhere overseas, somewhere there was just nature and little to no human settlement. Alaska came to mind a few times.
MC, however, began talking to the hospital psychiatrist after having a minor panic attack while caring for him. He does not know what she said, and he is pretty sure that it was not her intention, but they put him under watch and had him take a few sessions of therapy.
Considering his situation, he agrees that he could stand to benefit from some professional help, so he went in open-minded. The doctor helped him to talk through some of his feelings and how they got where they were then, and put some things in perspective.
Mainly, how selfish was his plan of simply leaving the country with no date of return, waiting for others to clear up the mess he left on his stead.
It is not as if Jihyun did not know that, he did, but… Everybody else seemed to indulge him on it, saying that he should take care of himself first. When he expressed that desire, Jumin offered him tickets and MC insisted that he should do as he pleases. Why should he not believe their sincerity? Though, he must admit that he dismissed Yoosung’s sole dissenting voice on grounds of the animosity between them.
The doctor agreed that they must have meant what they said, but it does not mean that they were right in saying so. The demands of the sick take precedence, and they recognize it, even if it places an undue burden upon them, even if it is not the right choice for his own mental health. Besides, the professional points out, it is unfair of him to expect that MC waits for him on a flimsy promise. If he wants to leave, then he should make sure that she is free of any obligation towards him.
He soon found that this was not something he was willing to do.
Therefore, he was faced with a choice: either leave everything behind with no promises and no attachments, or stay and find some other way to get to mental health and self-appreciation. When put on those terms, moving to Alaska seemed quite a bit silly.
So, he stayed, and set himself disciplinarily on a path of healing, while guarding the target of his affections close to his heart. He knew what he felt was something like love. It felt natural and, like very few, he explored it willingly, even if restrictedly.
He did not push it down and stifle the feelings so desperate to sing out to her, he did not try to deny it or run away from it. He faced it for what it was, otherwise he knew they would explode at some point. However, he stopped short of a confession, settling himself on the role of a close friend, while working upon himself. He was content with them for now, thinking that he placed it all in its rightful place, keeping them a secret behind closed doors and wandering eyes.
Respectfully wandering, of course. Jihyun would never dream of seeing her in a light like that when he was not properly hers.
Which does not mean he had not struggled with his situation. What never failed to get him was her laugh. A hymn he would never grow tired of, one that stood out from the usual white noise. He believed she could bring down nations with that laugh of hers. How sweet and welcoming it was to him, playing his heartstrings like a harp and he relished in it.
The feeling close to love would bloom in the very bottom of his stomach, flowing to his chest and amusing it with emotions indescribable to him. Words could not even do justice to the overwhelming deep oceans of passion, admiration and respect that washed over him.
However, he is not drowning, he was finally breathing. For the first time in his life, he could finally slow down. There was clarity within him when sorting through things with her. Everything reminded him of her and her essence.
He had never met anyone else like MC. He does not want to meet anyone else like her. He can never believe something or someone as perfect and exact as her could exist more than once, as a dot in eternity. His love for her can quench any thirst, satiate any hunger and rest any fatigue. Yet, he was still left thirsty, starving and exhausted, longing for more of her lingering affections and advances on his ever-doting heart.
Perhaps he had it right all along. Love and pain go together. With enough effort and a good disposition, the heart grows fond. What truly changed between Rika and MC is that, while one seemed to latch upon him like a drowning woman dragging him down, the other seemed to rejoice in lifting him up.
This is exactly why Jihyun, a non-believer, held onto his feelings. He understands how it helped him being a better person, he sees how he needed to grasp onto it because something this wonderful could only come once in a lifetime, and they were too short to be wasted.
He never knew how truly wonderful it was to be loved back by someone, especially MC. Perfect, angelic MC.
Her lips invited him in but he hardly took a breath. She would lift his chin in soft kindness with her refined graces, cast a glaze upon his eyes, set his fluttering stomach at rest in the comfort of her. He would get on his knees and beg her to do it all. To have no mercy on his enthralled soul.
With her lashes dusting his blushing cheeks, he is reminded of her other feather-light touches. Embracing him with her words, cradling his delicate and quivering lips.
He would let her, as his idol, treat him as she wishes. Let her abuse his advances on her love or tell him what he wished to hear and what he would never want to admit. Turn his words on him so he can see her listen. Let him drown in them. Let him look into her eyes once more before they parted ways and leave him searching for a part of himself that she is yet to touch.
The way she held his hand, how she cradled his lips with hers, contrasting rough with delicate. It was a movement that felt like religion, one he would devote his whole soul and being to. Her name was a mantra, a prayer on his lips that he would never grow tired of chanting softly to her. She is an altar, a temple of everything divine about life. He would idolize the ground she walked on every day for the rest of his life if he had to.
The way in which she embraces him with a warmth only for him. A warmth he held only for she too. It burned greater than any sacred fire within any hearth.
If MC wanted him to, he would do it all willingly.
At that very moment in time, it only just occurred to Jihyun why it is called being in love. He feels fully submerged and surrounded by her devotion to him. How did she do it all to him? Is she a magician?
One night, after almost a year’s worth of labour, he finally cracked.
She came to his house upon invitation, good-intentionally. The pretext had been a movie, he believes, but it did not matter: it was Friday, and they always met on Fridays. Either as a date somewhere, or at her home for whatever reason; this time, however, he would host, as he was finally proud of all the cleaning and Rika-banishing that he had done. Aside from the artwork, every single piece of furniture in there had been progressively changed and, when the new couch arrived earlier that week, he lived in a place completely devoid of her memory and her presence.
Fresh strawberries and white cream laid out perfectly on a gingham blanket to greet her. Soft silk woven into clothes that she drapes over her arms, shoulders and chest. The natural skipping of his heart that is synchronised to her breath and her breath only. Conversation ran long, and she had to ask to stay over.
To him, that is what he wanted to capture as bliss. Home is not where he is. Home is wherever she may be. When it finally became too much and she drifted off in that same new couch, marked with a new and bright memory, it broke his heart having to leave her to sleep. He knows that the end of this moment will come soon, but he resists.
He wants to take a picture, but he knows he cannot. Even if he could, it would be only a pale imitation of what he truly desired of it.
Jihyun always took a few moments to contemplate in something akin to prayer, held in a daze as he noticed the rise and fall of her chest form a steady pattern. He could recall it as he had committed it to memory the first time she had slept over. The quirk of her lip where a hum of a snore vibrated in her chest caught him out with a smile.
Love had been described to him in many ways by his mother and his father, always in different terms. Good thing so, as it taught that this is a personal idea and is one of the few things that humanity shall never conquer. Now, he would admit that a childish part of him found this belief naïve. As nothing but a sinner, a man, nothing more, looking upon her resting figure he feels nothing but love, and for such a significant emotion, he feels ignorant to have numbed it and reduce it to four letters. Well, that could not even do a fraction of justice to what he experienced with her.
Perfect ache. That is what he would attempt name it. The contradiction of love and how it wounds him into submission. His heart aching splendidly and tied down to her. Beating meekly but still beating for her. Time has often cut the time she shared together short and stolen the words unsaid from his starving mouth.
Still, as she leaves when the morning comes, he had an unwavering faith that every time was not a goodbye for good. It was a goodbye for now.
MC is everything to him, and he would never let that sense of belonging go. Not when he finally felt at home with his angel. His saviour. His divinity. Maybe he was crazy. Still, she is what made him sane in a deranged sort of way. She is what he saw in his past, present and future. Her company was heaven and without she was a hell no man should feel.
When the day comes and he does confess, when the day comes when Jihyun no longer knew the horror and sin he had seen as a cultist, he knows he will be finally free. He will finally know what it means to feel pain in love, and he will know satisfaction. He would determine what is worth his time and if he want to continue living in it.
Jihyun Kim did not believe in soulmates, but then he met MC.

Oooh you've probably talked about this before but what are your biggest grievances with V's after ending? 👀
(also hey hi howdy it's been a while since we chatted! I hope you're well!!)
Faye!! So lovely to see you in my inbox <3 This will be rather rambly because I'm feeling super sleepy and tired today, but I hope I'll make my point clear!
Honestly, I could go for the whole theme of forgiveness/judgement, and how V's ae butchers it with its rather linear structure, but... Thing is, I think everyone in the fandom agrees that it was very stupid and honestly gross of Cheritz to basically push the narrative of 'forgiveness is the one right path' on players. This topic has been talked about by many people in many different ways. I don't need to go over it again.
But I think nothing truly encapsulates all the flaws of V's after ending as perfectly as the judgement ending. I do understand why not nearly as many people discuss it. Out of everything Cheritz have put out for Mystic Messenger, it's pretty agreed upon that this was their worst addition yet. You can have your very valid grievances with Jumun's bad ending dlc, but it has brought out some additional depths to his character, AND it hasn't lost what the ending was about in the first place. Having reread it myself somewhat recently, the dlc doesn't shy away from displaying your dynamic with Jumin and its toxicity rather clearly. Is it perfect? God no. I think we all can agree on that.
!SA mention below cut!
But is it miles better than the judgement ending in V's ae? Oh absolutely.
There are so many things to dissect with all that is wrong with it. But I think the two main points I hate the most about it is:
a) the treatment of Rika's SA trauma (all of her trauma, honestly, but SA especially)
b) the blatant borderline 4th wall breaking shaming of the player's choices
The first point baffles and infuriates me the most, especially so when you compare the writing of the same event in the judgement ending to how it is described in Rika's behind story. Honestly, I would have loved to get some behind the scenes information on the development period between these two dlc. It certainly wouldn't surprise me if two different teams handled V's ae and Rika's behind story, with only some basic communication happening between them. Again, is Rika's behind story perfect in the way it handles its sensitive themes? Not by any means. But you don't see people getting upset and angry over the portrayal of Rika's trauma there, do you?
Rika's behind story is a very... specific story. It's not for everyone. I can tell that with 100% confidence. But the way it handles religious trauma, longterm effects of abuse and even SA - resonates with people who went through the same horrific experiences themselves. And I think that counts for something. The depiction and exploration of Rika's religious trauma (and all that it entails, including her SA by the Pastor) brings the same feelings of catharsis that Saeran's exploration of child abuse does. For me, it was Saeran, because his experiences are so painfully similar to what I went through growing up. But for a close friend of mine, it's Rika, as they grew up in a painfully similar environment to the one depicted in her Behind Story.
It's cathartic to see that you are not alone in your pain and trauma. That's why depictions of it are important. Shying away from the uncomfortable and grotesque can bring more harm than good, in my opinion.
Anyway, that long rant aside, take that depiction of Rika's trauma, INCLUDING her SA, and now make a mockery of it. That's what the judgement ending does. It makes a mockery of the same themes that Rika's behind story spends its entire runtime exploring, and it's baffling to see. Furthermore, it makes a mockery of her trauma to directly shame the player. As if it wasn't disgusting enough as it is.
'This is what you wanted, right? You wanted Rika to suffer, right? Shouldn't that make you happy? You chose this.' - is it any wonder people were left feeling angry, judged and shamed?
It's... so insensitive and morally disgusting, and I hate it with every fiber of my being. It may not appear as gross to you if you haven't played Rika's behind story, but if you did, them using Rika's sexual trauma as a way to shame the player is utterly insane to see.
But I think what's the most frustrating thing of all is that V's ae could have been amazing. V's ae is the only time we get to explore Saeyoung's grief and his codependency on his brother. But in the judgement ending, they use Saeyoung as a narrator to describe Rika's 'punishment'. They had a great character arc, and then butcher it like many other great potential story beats in this ae. V's ae does nothing with Jumin's grief, too. It eludes to it, but it does nothing with it. They don't show us V's reconciliation with Saeran. Sure, the one scene we got is nice, but I think it would be silly to say that it holds up to a potential story arc we could have gotten instead of some other ones we did end up getting.
They mess up Yoosung's and Zen's characterizations. Yes, I said it. I get why they did that, but it doesn't make it any more believable. With such a high emphasis on forgiveness vs judgement, they needed to have the theme laid out clearly to the player. Yoosung and Zen are two opposing sides in the ae. Yoosung with his anger and desire for justice, and Zen with his desire to just find peace and let go of all negative feelings that come with Rika. Thing is... with what we have of these two characters before that point, it should be the other way around. Yoosung is the more sympathetic, forgiving one. Zen is the righteous, hot-headed one. We see that time and time again, in many other routes.
But it wouldn't make sense for Zen to be all angry and hurt over Rika now, would it? They weren't that close. And they can't use Saeyoung for that, because Saeyoung already has a completely separate character arc to that. Jumin is too rational, he wouldn't be all extreme with his anger like they need. Jaehee wasn't close to Rika at all, nor is she very emotional. V is out of the picture. Vanderwoid is a complete stranger.
They basically wrote themselves into a corner with this.
So? They switch Zen and Yoosung places. Now Yoosung is the one demanding for justice, while Zen is willing to learn why Rika is the way she is.
And the funny thing is? This wouldn't be such a blatant issue if they set this up beforehand. But they didn't. There is no indication of Yoosung being angry with Rika in the route itself. And even in the good ending vn? He's heartbroken. Not angry.
Is it possible for us, as fans, to fill in the dots with our own ideas? Of course. But that doesn't make the canon any more cohesive, unfortunately.
In my opinion, V's ae shouldn't have been about 'forgiveness' in the first place. It should have been about grief, and exploration of it in all the different ways it can present itself. It should have been an emotionally taxing, but uplifting story about overcoming your grief and moving forward. And how it can look different for everyone.
Wouldn't that be a wonderful conclusion to V's route? A route that is, in its essence, is a story about self-love and acceptance?
But ultimately, V's ae is remembered as the infuriating experience that forces you to forgive Rika, a character that not many people liked in the first place. V's ae made the response to Rika's behind story utterly biased. And I don't blame anyone for feeling this way.
It's ironic, really. That by trying to humanize and explore Rika in a more meaningful way, they ultimately made even more people hate her. After V's ae release came the peak of Rika hate. It was miserable to be in the fandom. People would get harassed, bullied and belittled for liking her, or even tolerating her. The anger at Cheritz was directed at the fans. And I still hate remembering that period in our fandom.
Looking back on it all, I can't help but feel so utterly disappointed. V's ae could have been good. But, instead we have what we have. And I will still focus on the things in it that I do like.
This turned out way longer than I intended, but as you see, I have lots of feelings haha
On the more brighter note, how have you been Faye? I hope the Summer weather is not too hot wherever you are! And if it is, remember to stay hydrated and put on sunscreen! Summer heat is one nasty ordeal to deal with
#mia talks#not putting this in the tags bc it's honestly just me complaining 🙈#as for how have i been - mostly good!!#next week (and month probably) will be hella stressful though bc i'll be looking for a new job#and job hunting is another circle of hell if i ever saw one sob#but we power through!

Hello. I see that you now have new fandoms. That's cool :D. Can I request Jumin Han with a reader that's like elegant. For example, she dresses really elegantly, she is a ballerina as a hobby. I've always like the idea of Jumin partnered up with someone like that.
Jumin Han x Elegant!reader
Outline: Jumin with a elegant wife.
Characters: Jumin Han
Warnings: Jumin and you are married, and this is only for female readers.
Had been a bit unmotivated lately, so I'm sorry if this is not what you wanted 😞
Part two link is below 👇
First impressions
The first time he met you, he was mesmerized by how elegant and polite you were. Your voice was soft and soothing to listen to, and your aura was just so gentle and warm. But as well, you had a mysterious vibe to you as well. You were a fairly private person, so it was quite hard to know what you liked and what you disliked.
When he got to know you...
As you two began hanging out, he slowly but surely fell in love with you. You were (and still are) amazing. You were kind to everyone, you were organized, you were polite, you were basically everything he wanted in a partner. He tried to observe your every move so he could see if you returned his feelings. Unfortunately, he could not tell since you showed no feelings of love to him. You were just so mysterious. But, that made him want to know more about you.
He confesses...
His feelings has been too much to hide inside. He likes you too much. Even if you don't like him back, "it's better to get your feelings out rather than suffering in silence", that's what you told him. So, he asked you to meet him at a fancy restaurant. He made sure to show up early so he can mentally prepare for his confession, for the first time he felt nervous. But he knew that even if you didn't return the feelings, you would still support him. Another thing he loves about you.
As he sees you arriving (on time like usual) be begins to straighten his posture, fix his hair, basically try to tidy himself up. When you enter, he is immediately captivated by your beauty. After you two have a quick chat, you begin to have your dinner.
While having dinner, Jumin couldn't help but keep thinking back to his confession, repeating the words he will be saying to you, so he doesn't stutter. After having dinner, he was going to take you for a walk in a beautiful garden, and confessing at a flower arch. He was nervous, but you could hardly tell with his stoic expression.
After eating dinner, you both had a walk around the garden as he planned. Occasionally stopping so you can admire the flowers. As you two approach the flower arch, he begins to recite his lines.
"y/n. If you don't mind, I would like to have a word with you."
You both stop right under the flower arch, just as he calculated. things are going well he thinks.
"Of course, what is it?"
Looking at your eyes, Jumin's eyes slightly soften.
"y/n, ever since I've met you, you've always had a mysterious aura surrounding you."
You cover your mouth as you slightly laugh at this statement. You always made sure to not reveal too much information, that's how to be elegant.
"but, that made me want to know more about you. So I spent more time with you, and the more time we spent together, the more I feel as if... I've fallen in love with you."
... silence... Your silence slightly worried Jumin, but he still continued.
"I don't know if you share the same feelings as me, but I just need to get my emotions out. Just like you've told me."
Now that he's finished his confession, he begins to study your face, to see any reaction. To his suprise, you seem... Suprised. Very surprised. It seems you've been caught off guard.
He widens his eyes even more when he sees a small blush on your face, no words were being said, but Jumin thinks he already knows the answer. And to clarify his prediction, you mumble,
"I like you too..."
Part two is here!!

Hey!!! I was looking over your profile after I got your second request, so I wanted to shoot you my info and see your matchups!! I love reading other people's work! If you are too busy or swamped, though, you don't have to do mine!
I would like to be matched with Mystic Messanger ( I just got into this) and Obey Me!
Your name/nickname
Luna, course, you can also make it a Y/N for other people's enjoyment, I do not mind.
Age
23 in June! Gosh, I feel old, but I am not that old, lol
Sexuality
I am Pansexual; I love them all with no specific preference; I am currently dating a man, though.
Pronouns
She/Her
Preferred age range for your ship
No one under 18, and also for Obey Me, no Luke. I read him as a child so he is a child in my head I know he's an angel and probably hella old but no.
Likes/dislikes
I love to read and write. I am big into celeb gossip mainly cause I like to psycho-analyze everything. I graduated with my bachelor's in psychology and love the human mind. Due to this, though, I have been told I am very manipulative and read people too well, so I am off-putting. I like people who love to help others and be reasonable. I love an open mind.
Hobbies
Studying especially psychology or technology. Writing stories or reading romance novels. Nature walks, especially in national parks. Magic the gathering. FPS video games.
Love languages
My most extensive love language is Physical Touch
The second would be Words of Affirmation
Ideal type
I don't have a 'type'; I love people for their personalities. If I had to hammer down who I am drawn to, it would be mysterious people. I think they are fun to get to know, and I love to be an outlet for them to express themselves.
A summery of your personality
I am a big goofball; however, I am very serious when I need to be. I work first and play later 90% of the time. I do take breaks, though, to allow myself to fully relax and just be me. I have lived in my mother's shadow my whole life, so I work hard to make a name for myself outside of the name she gave me and her name. I am driven to succeed and help those around me. I tend to be so overly considerate that I end up being walked on, however if I realize I am being walked on I will psycho analyze which is where the rumors of me being manipulative and off putting come from.
astrology sign
Gemini, I know they have a bad wrap, but some are good. I at least hope I am not considered bad.
Aesthetic/style
I have shoulder-length brown hair, pale skin, and light blue eyes, but everyone in my family says they are gray. My style depends on where I am; if I am at work, I wear jeans, a T-shirt, and tennis shoes, and my hair is up in a bun. If I am at home, I wear boho clothes and have my hair down. If I am out on the town, I am super girly with heels, a skirt or dress, and full makeup with curled hair.
Anything else you can think of
I suffer from a speech impediment, and though I have managed to control it better with time and practice, I still lisp whenever I am angry or really, really tired. I also suffer from Dyslexia, so I have to use Grammarly to help with my spelling and grammar.
Thank you so much for your requests from me. I really appreciate them and love writing them. I hope to have your match-up within the next day or two!
Hello~! I’m so excited to do a match up for you as well! I hope you enjoy your matches :3 Also a fellow Gemini, how exciting! ♊️
Your Mystic Messenger Lover Is…Jumin Han~
You like mysterious people? Jumin is your man! Plus, Jumin is a libra and they are very compatible with Gemini’s. Jumin might be a hard nut to crack because of his upbringing and has been instructed to be the next heir to his father’s company since a young age. But, you are able to see through all of that, which might catch the CEO in line off guard…but he will definitely keep it calm and collected. No one has ever been able to crack right through him as easily as you have. And he’s impressed.
This intrigues you even more. It will take sometime, but little by little Jumin will feel much more secure with your presence around him. He feels confident in your ability to analyze situations and the human mind, which will come in handy when he needs consideration on a business venture/opportunity. “Luna, what do think about this new cat business I’ve been thinking about? I trust your judgment.”
Even though he seems cold and distant, this man gets attached very fast to most people’s surprise. And you’re not an exception. I get a sense of a calming presence while reading your description and I think that’s something Jumin would absolutely love about you. Being in charge of a company can be very grueling and draining at times. So, when he comes home to you after a long day he won’t say much but give you a sweet tired smile and gently lay his head on your welcoming shoulders. He just wants to feel your touch and presence.
I think you and Jumin are very similar too. He especially understands being in a parent’s shadow as well and would confide in you with that as well. I can see you two being each other’s support system.
Definitely the type to call you “Dear” and “Darling”…..”Darling, would you like to accompany me to a restaurant and wine for dinner this evening? I’ve had a long day and I just want to be in your presence.”
Jumin would also ask you to read him some of your stories you’ve been working on. Hearing your voice relaxes him so much to the point where it’s a nightly routine for you to read him to sleep~!
Jumin would find your speech impediment endearing and would be so loving and patient with you. He doesn’t want you to stress out about it and gives you all the time and support you need. Most of the time you think he reads your mind as well.
Also your biggest supporter. He think you are the most exquisite woman he’s every seen! He’ll even help you pick out your night on the town outfits. “Here Darling, I think this necklace will look stunning with your dress…you just look delectable tonight~.”
You’ll definitely be the one to loosen up Jumin with your bubbly, playful nature. He can help but crack a gentle smile when he see you and seven joking around with each other. The RFA are like a family to him are equally important as well. So seeing his love for his love and second family getting along with each other warms his heart~!
I love this pairing so much~! 😍
Your Obey Me Lover Is…Lucifer~
Honestly I was debating between Lucifer and Leviathan, since I think you and Levi share similar interests. So I think you can be a good match for him as well~
Another mysterious man for you. Lucifer is the eldest brother and with that comes with a sense of responsibility for his younger brothers. Because of that, he has to keep a stoic and harsh attitude when it comes to dealing with his brothers. Even though his brothers tend to be a pain in the ass and sometimes a burden, he still loves them with his whole heart and want to do his best to make sure his brothers are taken care of. But he only shows that side of himself to you~.
He’s also very shocked that a mere human is able to read right through him. It makes him feel puzzled, how were you able to do that? And in turn, that aspect of you intrigues him!
I can see you trying to convince Lucifer to show a little more warmth towards his brothers, but this man can be very stubborn! “I don’t have the time or interest of giving Mammon a cookie for getting a high score on his test, Luna”. But after sometime he comes around. With your help of course as being this vulnerable and sweet if very difficult for him.
He’ll be taken aback when you give him a hug for the first time or holding his hand on one of your many nature walks together. But Lucifer loves it, he’ll even gently reach for your hand when you least expect it and gingerly place a sweet kiss on said hand.
You are the only person in the whole entire Devildom to make this stoic man smile and laugh. And the brothers think you are some Devine creature because of it lol. They are SO perplexed and ask you what your tricks are to get him to smile. Truth is Lucifer just has a soft spot for you and can’t help but to smile when he gazes at you.
Definitely more of a private lover and prefers to show his love for you when others aren’t around. Only in private will he call you such sweet names like “Darling” and “My Love” being the main names for you.
I can see him being interested in a game you’re playing with Levi and wanted to try it out himself. I have a feeling Lucifer is very competitive and he started the game so confidently that he was going to win. But to his surprise, you were the only to beat him. He is DUMBFOUNDED LOL. He might even get a little pouty, you’ll just giggle and peck him on the lips and remind him to not be such a sore loser LOL.
He’s secretly super cuddly and will cuddle up with you in bed after a long day of babysitting his brothers lol. I can see him being passed out on your chest while you’re gingerly playing with his hair. Slowly lulling the most feared demon to sleep. Sure he’s the most powerful and dangerous demon, but in moments like this is when you fall in love with Lucifer even more~.

Listen. I'm not saying that Jaehee doesn't work a lot, or that she should be super grateful for her position in C&R or whatever. I understand that she is suffering on some level and that within the vice that is capitalism it is not as simple as "well she would leave if he was that bad." But to constantly see people say Jumin horrifically overworks her or that he is a terrible abusive boss is sort of baffling to me? Sure he can be a bit of a control freak. He cares about his work a lot and so he wants everything to be done to the highest possible standard, and it can have negative repercussions for her. Sure she should get more holidays. He is definitely not the picture perfect dream corporate boss and I would not claim that that's the case. Ultimately though both of them are just... doing their jobs? Jaehee admits herself that Jumin works significantly more than she does. Jumin has other assistants that Jaehee delegates tasks between so it's not like she is doing everything herself. He pays her well and explicitly respects her efficiency and competency. In routes other than her own I feel as if she actually seems relatively content working for him 🤷🏻♀️
#people seem to just completely overlook jumin's character outside of how jaehee sees him#anyway#i only defend fictional billionaires not real ones i prommy 😞#NO MORE JUMIN HATE IN THE TAGS I'M ON MY KNEES

What do you think would be each character’s favorite flavor of cake?
You know what, this is a brilliant question, but I think I'm going to answer it based on vibes rather than trying to break down the semantics of why a character might enjoy a certain flavor over another.
Jaehee
Angel's Food Cake! You thought I was going to say that she would love coffee cake, didn't you? I feel like her favorite kind of dessert is one that is gentle on the tongue. You can't go wrong with fresh fruit and a gentle sponge. I imagine it might take her back to her childhood with her parents and what's better than that? It's nice to have a good memory. I know she makes a lot of different things for her cafe, but for whatever reason, I always think she enjoys the most gentle things.
Zen
Hotteok. Street Pancakes. He just isn't the kind of person who eats a lot of sweets, but I know he loves to visit different vendors because he has a lot of friends who have gotten out of gang life and end up making food for others. I think the closest you can get to him enjoying a suite is something he could pick up from a friend. They can be stuffed with different things, but I think brown sugar and cinnamon might be his go-to! I think they can add nuts too!
Yoosung
Funfetti Cake! I know what you're going to say, I can already hear you, why did I give him the flavor that would make him look like a kid who hasn't tried different things before? Well, I raise you the idea that sometimes people like what they like and it doesn't matter if it seems childish to you, he knows what he likes, and it happens to be sprinkles in his cake batter. You can't go wrong with it at the end of the day.
Jumin
Cheesecake! I just can't see him eating a cake for some reason. That's not to say that he doesn't like them, it's just that when I tried to imagine what he would like to enjoy, I came to the same conclusion. He wants a cheesecake slice and some coffee to go with it. He likes to indulge in the flavor now and again and I think that makes sense for him.
Saeyoung
Red Velvet. Again, I don't know what it is about him, but I feel like he really enjoys cream cheese frosting. The only thing that gets me with this is that in one of the folders that you can purchase from the marketplace, there's a birthday cake with blueberries and strawberries. Which implies to me that he likes blueberries, but there's no other evidence to back that up and there's nothing in the world that says he couldn't put blueberries on any cake so I've decided he's just going to put blueberries on red velvet cake.
Jihyun
Tiramisu! I feel like this makes sense and I don't even need to explain it because the people who get it—will get it and the people who won't—won't. There's just something about him sitting in the back of a cafe with a plate of tiramisu on one side and a scathing 10th grade essay on the other where he's going to argue up and down some sort of pretentious conclusion to an art piece. I'm going to say I support it because he's so goofy, but I can't unsee this.
Saeran
Strawberry Shortcake! The game points this out for me and I don't think I can argue with that. Although, I will say Unknown did have a drawing for his birthday where he had a big Black Forest cake. But, I don't know if that's his favorite, considering that there was a bottle of wine in the picture and I had a bad feeling about who set out a birthday display for him to begin with and why they picked what they picked. In any case, give this man some strawberry shortcake.
Rika
Devil's Food Cake! I didn't pick this because I thought it would be a funny joke. I picked this because she seems like somebody who likes to indulge. She decided she was going to unleash her devil and not let anybody stop her from enjoying herself, no matter what that meant for the people around her who suffered because of it, and tasting a very rich, dense chocolate cake is a representation of that sentiment.
Vanderwood
Carrot Cake! I don't even really have an explanation for this one other than it just feels right. I don't see them as somebody who enjoys a lot of sweets, but if they're going to have something, the most nostalgic thing they could think of would be something from their childhood, and I just think that's carrot cake.

NEW MUSE INCOMING.
Name: Jumin Han
age: 27
fandom: Mystic messanger
height: 184 cm (6'0 foot)
nationality: Korean
job: Executive Director of C&R International. Working under his father, he is to be the CEO of the company if anything were to happen to him.
description: Jumin Han is one of the Deep Story characters available in Mystic Messenger. He is the son of a wealthy family and the heir of the C&R International company. He is always on business trips and usually talks about work or mature topics, which is why he doesn't know about youth slang or commoner food. He does, however, sometimes speak eccentrically. Jumin loves to talk about his cat, Elizabeth the 3rd, and how beautiful she is and is very much a doting parent. However, because of past experiences, Jumin is emotionally closed off and is distrustful of women, having witnessed his father fall victim to many gold-diggers who never loved his father, only his money.
Personality: Jumin is a quiet, serious, and cautious man who, as the oldest, acts as the logical and pragmatic voice of the group, presenting himself as the most mature. Despite this, he is interested in young slang and loves to talk about cats, especially his own, Elizabeth 3rd. In fact, in his own way, his general cadence will give off that of a child's, often being innocently unaware of many things such as free bottles of soda given with takeaways. He also enjoys teasing Zen about his cat allergy in the chat room. He is often surrounded by rumors concerning his sexuality because of his complete lack of interest in women, leading the press and other members of the RFA to tease him for possibly being gay. He views situations objectively, and wants others to be like him. He is a workaholic, which is shown through how he works Jaehee Kang to the bone; however, Jaehee states that Jumin's workload is ever greater than hers. Jumin disregards others' opinions of him, so he lives his life how he thinks is right. Jumin does not care for romantic relationships because he thinks they aren't worth it, preferring to focus on his work and cat instead. This gives others the impression of Jumin being a cold man, with Jumin often referred to as being a 'robot'. He also keeps his work relationships strictly professional, believing that his employees will do anything as long as they are paid to. As Jumin has a high status, he lives luxuriously, but he hates people that only like him for his money. Jumin has his own sense of humor which most of the RFA members do not understand, and at most times, isn't very funny but he doesn't care. Despite his cold and objective perspective, Jumin treasures the members of RFA so much that when needed, he would use his authority to help them without hesitation. During Jumin's Route, it is revealed that he is not so cold and unfeeling as he portrays himself; instead, he is a man who feels far too much but, for the sake of efficiency, he pushes his feelings down, repressing them and using work and his cat to distract himself. This has led to Jumin to develop severe, crippling loneliness and he does not know how to work through it, viewing himself as a 'monster', thinking himself to be an ugly creature because of how lonely and paranoid he is. To cope, he projected this loneliness onto Elizabeth the 3rd and is overcome with despair when he admits that he knows their relationship is a lie, that she does not understand him and never will. Jumin refers to his complex emotions as "tangles" and believes that if anyone were to see them, they would be disgusted by him, thus causing Jumin to remain emotionally closed off and distant from other people, including the members of the RFA. As a result of ignoring his crippling loneliness that he has suffered with for the majority of his life, he has immense difficulty expressing his emotions and is seen being fearful that he will be perceived as being 'pathetic', showing that he is not entirely immune to caring about the perception other people have of him. Because of never having been in a romantic relationship before and being forced to repress his emotions, Jumin's relationship with the MC is rocky at first as he struggles with the intensity of his feelings coupled with his internal fears of being abandoned and rejected. However, with the MC's help, Jumin overcomes all his fear and anxiety and "untangles" his emotions that were knotted for many years.
#ᵠFinally; I feel like the door to my heart is open.ᵠ {Jumin Han}#my baby!!!#he is here#hi#:333#{ ooc }

MM Classpecting: Saeran Part 1
Zen Classpect
Yoosung Classpect
Jaehee Classpect
Jumin Classpect
707 Classpect
V Classpect
This is the 7th addition to my very long string of posts, where I Homestuck classpect Mystic Messenger characters. I explained in my very first post with Zen how I go about doing this. For Saeran I will split it into 2 parts because... I have a lot to say. buckle up this is real long, even compared to the previous posts.
Personality/General Info: Depends on which story we’re talking about. Generally: is a good hacker like his brother. Likes cooking and gardening. Weak constitution. Used to be sweet and gentle as a child, but grew up to become aggressive and rage-fueled.
Great ambition to get revenge against Saeyoung, believing that he abandoned him. As a child, saw him as his most precious companion. When Saeyoung left, it brought pain and grief. Rika manipulated him into believing that he abandoned him on purpose, causing Saeran to feel intense rage and hatred for his brother. Considers V a traitor for taking Saeyoung away. Everything they say to him is considered a lie. Saeran wants to inflict as much pain on Saeyoung as he could (killing or torturing MC in some BEs, though doing that is a last resort).
Saeran’s devotion to Mint Eye is great, to the point he is considered one of the most faithful followers. He even has a Mint Eye tattoo on his arm. In Deep/Casual, not only does his thirst for revenge blind him, but the anger towards the abuse he suffered at the hands of his own mother consumes him, and thus he'll easily abuse others to let out his anger even when he hasn't been part of Mint Eye for months (Yoosung's Bad End 3), or lash out violently when his plans aren't successful (Yoosung's route) to the point he blinds Yoosung's left eye when he stops him from detonating a bomb in MC's location with her in it.
Despite Mint Eye's manipulation having a hand in shaping his personality for the worse, he admits violence comforts him outside of the cult even after being weaned out of drugs, however, he's shown to have deep remorse over these bad actions after his anger subsides and is capable of improving to be a less harmful person, slowly becoming the warm person he used to be.
In the Secret Ending 2, Saeran begins to overcome his emotional trauma(s). After being rescued from Mint Eye following a major mental breakdown, Saeran's aggressiveness escalates and he refuses to trust anyone ever again due to his deep fear that he will be betrayed and abandoned again. Slowly and reluctantly, he begins to believe that Seven is being truthful and won't abandon him again, which makes his anger subside despite the path of recovery being a rocky one. By the end of 707's Secret Ending, Saeran is a lot stabler compared to how he was before and he joins the RFA, being its newest member now, thus marking his road to recovery and becoming his own person away from Mint Eye.
In Another Story there are 2 personalities: Ray and Saeran. The two personalities are aware of each other and seem to be able to communicate with one another.
Role in Narrative: Antagonist in main og story. Is important to main story, and is one of Saeyoung’s main character motivations. Most of his actions pertain to serving Mint Eye, but he also serves his own interests by taking revenge against Saeyoung. That was his main motivation: to serve Mint Eye for the sake of enacting revenge. He also genuinely believed in Mint Eye’s cause, but learns that it was all a lie. He must move past all of his pain and rage to live a better life with his brother and the RFA. Saeran kills V. He destroyed his life. He destroys Yoosung’s sight, psyche, etc. Tries to destroy the RFA.
Active or Passive: He could be passive (+) because he does things to benefit Mint Eye. But, he uses his position at Mint Eye to exact revenge against Saeyoung, which could be seen as active (-)...
I have multiple classpects that I'm considering for Saeran. He is a difficult character to parse, after all. So, I will split this into 2 posts, each focusing on 1 interpretation for his possible Classpect.
Classpect Interpretation 1:
Page of Heart (-) - One who serves Heart, or serves through Heart for themselves.
How this applies to Saeran: The description for Pages at their worst is how I would describe Unknown. Manipulative, selfish, and infuriating. Saeran created a persona as Unknown, hiding behind it. He doesn’t want to be the ‘weak’ Saeran, but the strong Unknown. Despite trying to be ‘strong’, Saeran was always gentle and innocent inside. He clings to the lie that Rika and Mint Eye presented to him, instead of believing Saeyoung when he says he didn’t abandon him. He clings to what he is used to. Pages can still be very perceptive though, but avoid unpleasant topics/truths behind their persona, and we see this with Saeran. In the SEs he starts having an internal conflict about his brother, if he really abandoned him or not. He retreats back to his Unknown persona, protecting himself, running away from reality. Other instances where he doesn’t take accountability and retreats to his persona is… killing V. When he sees Rika talking to V, he believes that she is being tricked by him. He aims a gun at him, showing his ‘strength’, and kills him. Saeran loses himself, constantly hiding behind Unknown, and being confused by all of the revelations happening around him. It causes him to become incredibly unstable.
Saeran can come off as mean due to the way he acts, but we see in his childhood how innocent he was. How he daydreamed about a better life. Loved watching the sky, ice cream, etc. His likes and interests were very childish.
A Page at their best is very charming, inspiring others to follow them, following their ideals, and people want to help them. We see the ‘inspiring others’ and ‘following their ideals’ part in Ray's After Ending, where Saeran is fully whole again, working with the RFA to save Saeyoung. He also wants to protect MC, not afraid of facing his father anymore. The RFA all looked up to Saeran for his earnest determination. You could say he is a fully realized Page in this ending, which was extremely difficult to achieve. The potential that Saeran displays is immense. Even his hacking skills are considered better than his brother’s, and who knows what else he can achieve if given the opportunity to live a normal life?
In the original main story, though, we see people who want to help Saeran. Of course, it's V and Rika. Saeran’s weak constitution is what made Rika want to ‘save’ him. V couldn’t help but want to help him (though, V has a compulsion to want to help everyone, but still).
In Homestuck, the Page class is known as the most difficult to master. As a result, the Pages we see in the comic, like Jake English, are viewed as ‘weak’ by the characters. Their discovery of their own self worth and true potential is extremely long, to the point that they may never reach the end of their journey. With Saeran, his past was stacked against him. A prime minister as a father who wants to kill him, an abusive mother that targets him for his weak constitution, being indoctrinated into a cult as soon as he left his old situation. In every turn he takes there is always something hampering his journey towards self-actualization. There are many bad endings in Another Story that show this, where he either becomes the cult leader of Mint Eye, dies, etc.
The development of a Page is considered slow too, needing help from others in order to mature. Because of Saeran’s childhood, he does need help in order to mature, lacking normal experiences that most would have had. V offers this help in the form of teaching him about photography and flowers. Rika seeks to help him ‘mature’ or ‘grow strong’ by indoctrinating him into Mint Eye. She believes that by doing this he will reach his full potential, and leave his ‘weak’ old self behind. (Bro this just sounds like Aranea Serket forcefully unlocking Jake English’s full potential, and then it ends up fucking up the entire story). The bonds that a Page has with people is a double-edged sword. Due to his nature, people want to help Saeran, badly, but if it's the wrong kind of people, like V and Rika, it could end up poorly.
This is what the Extended Hiveswap Zodiac had to say about the Heart Aspect:
(We did this before with Yoosung, but I'm putting it here just in case you didn't read that post)
“Those bound to the aspect of Heart are very concerned with their favorite subject: themselves. It wouldn’t be a stretch to call them 'self-obsessed’, but not necessarily in a negative way. They simply want to understand the one thing we all are stuck with for our entire lives, i.e. our own minds. Forging an identity is extremely important to the Heart-bound, and every decision and action goes toward building a coherent narrative of their own story. That isn’t to say Heart-bound don’t care deeply for their friends and allies; they just have a tendency to assume that everyone is as concerned with identity as they are. They are excellent at putting on and taking off masks as the situation calls for them. At their best, they are competent, imaginative, and steady. At their worst they can be overbearing, inflexible, and cold.”
How this applies to Saeran: Heart is Saeran’s Aspect. I’ve said in the Yoosung classpect post that I believe Heart represents romance, emotions, soul and identity. Saeran’s identity is little to none in the beginning of his story, unable to see the outside world due to his parents. Saeyoung was healthy enough to venture outside, to see the world and to form an identity of his own. Saeran was unable to, and as a result there’s only a handful of things that we know he likes for sure: the sky, flowers, and ice cream. You could say these are small parts of his Heart, but he only managed to gather a little.
The theme of identity is all around Saeran. In the main story his identity is decided by others: by Rika who wants him to be Mint Eye’s hacker, by Saeyoung who wants him to be the same little brother that he knows, by V. In Another Story we get a split-personality narrative, where his identity is literally split apart. This is a struggle seen in the Heart bond, trying to figure out who they are (as I’ve said before with Yoosung, but in his case his journey towards self-actualization is completely different).
A Page of Heart has Heart Served to them by others to benefit themselves. Rika, V and Saeyoung are Serving Heart to Saeran, exposing him to new things and shaping his identity. Saeyoung showed him the sky and ice cream. V showed him flowers and photography. Rika showed him… yeah. As I’ve said, letting other people gather Heart for him, help him in order to mature, does more harm than good. The only way Saeran could reach his ideal self is to access his Aspect himself. We see this clearly happen in Ray’s After Ending. Once he has access to Heart, then he is unstoppable. He not only knows exactly who he is (Ray and Saeran fusing into one personality), but we also see other parts of the Aspect of Heart shine through. Romance is a big part of Heart, and he gets that with MC. He is able to express his emotions, which were seen as ‘weak’ by Rika, and ultimately this results in him connecting with his father, making Saejoong actually feel remorse. Emotions aren’t weakness to him, they are his strength.
A Page of Heart can also call on Heart to protect themselves from hardship or unpleasant situations. You could argue he initially does this when he splits his personality between Ray and Saeran in Another Story. He protects himself from pain by making one personality take the brunt of it, even though in the grand scheme of things, he is only harming himself more by doing this.
So, how is Saeran a Page of Heart in the main story (Deep Story, 707 route, Secret Endings)? Well, I talked about Another Story and Ray After Ending a lot since I think we actually see him become a fully realized Page of Heart there, but in the main story that isn’t as obvious. He still has Heart pushed onto him by Saeyoung, V and especially Rika. He hides his true self behind the moniker of Unknown. He uses this identity to his benefit, even if its harmful towards his true self. As Unknown, he intimidates and terrorizes the RFA.
I will be honest, the Page of Heart suits the Saeran we see in Another Story and the role he plays within that narrative. In the main story of Mystic Messenger, his role is different from this. I wanted to cover this interpretation anyway, since it did resonate with me.
Similar to how I determined Jaehee's classpect, we must look at Deep Story, 707 route and the Secret Endings in order determine his classpect, since I believe classpects are determined by the role a character plays in the main narrative.
(Also I like the idea of the Choi twins having classes that are the direct opposite on the Active and Passive class dichotomy).
