#please don’t be shy to talk to me thoooo

[jonathanbiers]

longtime reader first time anon! in regards to the "steve doesn't know what a bisexual is" thing, I'm honestly going back and forth about whether ANYONE in a small town in the mid-eighties would be super familar with the concept — as a bisexual myself I am wondering. researching it hasn't come up with much, because while we know bisexuality was definitely developing as its own movement in queer urban spaces, how much of that permeated middle america?

hi, first of all i’m??? so flattered that you’ve read my stuff and stuck around to read more but anyway, getting to the subject of the discussion,

i mean i live in a small town but it’s not the 80s anymore and i was not alive then, so my perspective is still limited. but it’s definitely feasible to me that he’d be aware of the concept of bisexuality, whether or not he had the vocabulary for it.

but correct me if i’m wrong, we have evidence of him having an idea of the concept of bisexuality in the show when he reassures robin that vickie could still be interested, even if she had a boyfriend? and that smile at the end of vol 2 when he sees them interacting. that’s a “go best friend” smile if i’ve ever seen one, he sees her hitting it off. he knows she has a chance, even after they saw her kissing a guy

and if that’s not enough, david bowie was huge at the time and also known for liking both. this would definitely be talked about in a small town like that, even if it’s just to be derogatory(which lets be real it would) which makes it very hard for me to believe he’s never been exposed to the concept even if he’s repressed his own feelings, which is basically what you’re talking about in the third ask. i hope you don’t mind me condensing them all into one post btw jajdhjdnf

also speaking of your third ask, i’ve lived that too!! this discussion is not about me but i wanted to throw it in there. and my experience is obviously different, but. i spent a good chunk of my self discovery journey identifying as a lesbian when i was, in fact, a transmasc dealing with comphet all along. i repressed the fuck out of my attraction to guys even when i didn’t yet realize i was one. that’s a very very real thing. even while doing things that were (for me) a very obvious sign of attraction. also, if you’re a longtime enough reader to have been around before i abandoned the multi chapter steddie fic that i just haven’t deleted yet, that’s pretty much where i was going to go with that just for the record. him realizing he felt the attraction all along and just repressed it because of (he wouldn’t know the vocabulary but) comphet. not some weird “what do you mean, both?” robin handfeeding him the dictionary definition of bisexual thing that happens way to often in fics to even be funny anymore

which brings me to your second ask. who decided that robin “trips and stutters around pretty girls” buckley and eddie “super super senior dnd nerd plays his guitar so much he learns master of puppets in a couple of weeks” munson are the experts on queer history and would be the ones to explain to poor little dumb baby steve that he’s attracted to both like he’s not a big boy with more emotional intelligence and depth than A LOT of main male characters out there, and who can figure shit out his damn self? please. robin is…robin, we love her, but she’s not giving me “goes to gay bars in indianapolis” vibes. who’s taking her to these, anyway? she can’t drive. she’s underage. definitely not giving me “has a fake id” vibes, either. try and convince me robin “or rather my mouth moves faster than my brain” buckley could get past a club bouncer. and eddie, bless his heart(affectionate), whether you’re a virgin eddie truther or not, is not some sex god who knows everything about being gay and swoops in to share this privileged knowledge with steve. those fanfics, while a fun fantasy at first, are something i’m sick and tired of seeing at this point. and yet the damage is seemingly done, the fandom has just come to that consensus at this point.

28. satin

UwU

My boy! Your fic almost made it to 2,000 words xD It's about 21 words shy of that which is CRAZY! xD Nandermo is TOO precious...I couldn't contain myself from typing a tiny drabble, lmaoooo.

I hope you like it thoooo! <3 I know you gave me the word "broken" a bit later, but I wanted to mention it so readers know what to expect from this dumb lil piece, lol.

Reminder that I'm taking drawing and writing commissions in exchange for donations to Ukraine, btw! Get yourself a cool fic (like this one!) for your generosity! We all win :D I'm working for multiple fandoms (INCLUDING NANDERMO!), so shoot me a DM and let's talk!

But anyways...I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, GRIM! I wrote this with lots of love to you so we could feel the feels together xD Cheers, my goth friend! I am sending you virtual hugs! c:

Guillermo thought material perfection didn’t exist, until his eyes fell upon the midnight drapes peeking from inside a window display. He knew that this cape had to belong to his master. The moment he caressed the fabric between his fingers, he was sure that the grey and white embroidered appliques over a sea of black satin were most appropriate for Nandor. The black lace that decorated the hem and collar of the cape gave it the regal aspect Guillermo had been looking for on a late Victorian piece. And the silver clasp closures with the leaf motifs were in pristine condition. Honestly, the goods you could sometimes find at charity shops was obscene. Without thinking twice about it, he took it off the dress form, bought it, and went next door to look for the classiest gift bag and creepiest of crêpe paper in a fit of giggles. Back home, once Guillermo was pleased with the outcome of his gift’s presentation, he decided to get ready for the waking of his master and the rest of the vampires in celebration of the blood full moon later that evening. Was it coincidental that the blood full moon fell on Valentine’s day this year? Perhaps, perhaps not…but all Guillermo knew was that his excitement for the celebration knew no bounds.

Once everyone was finally up and ready for the “romantic” feeding festivities, Guillermo had a spur of energy to fetch his present immediately. He speeds to his bedroom and grabs the large, matte black and charcoal striped paper bag from his bed, fluffs up the mahogany paper and brings it into the sitting room.

To Guillermo’s dismay, however, Nandor’s face began to look sour as he saw him approach the group.

“Master, this is for you.” Guillermo presents the gift with a pleasant grin. “I think it will be to your liking.”

Nandor looks from Guillermo’s spectacled face to the louring faces of the other three vampires in the room. “Guillermo.” He starts, holding the ‘o’ in his usual manner. “What is this about?” Nandor doesn’t sound very delighted, and Guillermo takes a step back before answering.

“It-it’s a gift. I bought it just for you.” He heard a hint of snickering from behind, but refused to look over his shoulder at the others.

“I don’t want you buying any suspicious things for me, Guillermo!”

“But…I even got creepie paper for-”

Suddenly, the bag is smacked off of his hands and the cape partially spills when the bag makes contact with the floor.

“I’ll have none of it, Guillermo. Please don’t bother me on this important night.” Nandor almost hissed at him, but seemed to keep his composure. Unbeknownst to Guillermo however, was Nandor peeking at the metal clasps of the cape with major intrigue. All Guillermo saw was Nandor’s decision against softening his ego to avoid judgement from his housemates. He quickly retrieved the bag from the floor and stormed out of the living room before Nadja or her dollie could make any cheeky comments about his feelings.

*

Guillermo basically stumbles towards his bedroom, afraid that the tears might fall from his eyes whilst in the presence of the other housemates. He doesn’t like appearing weak in front of anyone, much less showcasing his broken feelings through watering eyes and salted cheeks. Guillermo quickly tosses the gift bag onto his bed without turning the lights on. At the moment, he really doesn’t care where it landed or if the cape gets ruined; he only hears the clasp hit the wall, so he sits on the edge of the bed with his hands over his face. He does his best at keeping most of the tears inside, and successfully manages to grunt only a little. The knot in his throat is not a good reminder of what just happened, but it will suffice in ensuring that the rage remains with him until the vampires come back from their “celebration”. In fact, Guillermo realises he too should be part of the celebration. So he quickly wipes the small trickling tears that made it onto his cheeks, and goes to turn on the small desk lamp. He thinks ‘To hell with it!’ and grabs the cape out of the bag. In his mind he’s placing that cape rather roughly over his shoulders, but in reality he’s handling it with extreme precaution. It fits odd in some places, but quite comfortably in others. As he looks in the mirror, shape draped in black and completely swallowed by the nightly sheen of the satin, he starts picturing himself just running across the residence, jumping around like in the most frivolous action scenes in movies. The crew will be too busy outside filming the vampires doing their stupid shenenigens. He can stay home and pretend like the good old days. You know, like the time he first saw Antonio Banderas in Interview with a Vampire that inspired him to dress up like a vampire as a kid himself. Or those good times like when Nandor used to lift him up and…pretend like he was flying. Or when he’d actually carry and fly him around the city. Some felt like just yesterday, and…in fact just last week Nandor had let him kiss his neck and dig his stubby teeth on it. Even if there was no blood gushing out, Guillermo liked to pretend. He would suckle on that spot for hours if he could; the red mark would never appear on Nandor’s neck to denounce their sins and hidden desires. No one could tell, and it was just perfect.

Everything had been just perfect. So why did Nandor have to hiss at him and let him rot with his feelings? It’s not like Guillermo wanted to call attention to their secret relationship; he knows how much they’ve tried hiding already. He was just being nice…bearing a gift was commonplace for a familiar, right?

Guillermo didn’t quite catch the moment he had come down to his knees, but he was currently balling, and didn’t know when the tears had started coming. He just wanted to show Nandor his appreciation. He just wanted to show him how much it meant to him that he’d finally said Yes. After all these years. If he wasn’t allowed to become a vampire yet, this was the next best thing, and it made Guillermo yearn for the secret to just see the light of day. It wasn’t fair. Why would his master be so mean? And after all the feelings they shared the other night! And the confessions…ah!

The confessions.

The thought of his master being ashamed of him brought Guillermo to hop back onto his bed. He no longer wanted to run around the house. His feelings were making him tired. ‘Why is he being a jerk?’ was the last thing to cross his mind as he almost felt dizzy enough to fall asleep; cozied up with the cape still around his neck. It was softer than he remembered, and he wished it smelt of Nandor…but it didn’t. Maybe it never would.

~

Throughout the Blood Full Moon feasting, Nandor came to realise he wasn’t enjoying himself as he should…or as he often had so many times before whilst celebrating this dumb holiday some humans call Valentino’s Day. He’s still not sure who Valentino is and why they celebrate the fucking guy by sharing chocolate. Before leaving the host’s house, he laid eyes upon one of those silly heart-shaped boxes and decided to nick it when no one was watching.

Colin Robinson had tried making some conversation with him, but too many thoughts clouded his nogging so he decided to just let him ramble on while they walked back home.

Once there, he waits no more than a minute for his housemates to rest or busy themselves with useless activities; so Nandor takes the opportunity to sneak into Guillermo’s bedroom. He walks trepidatiously inside and spots the precious familiar washed by a soft light, laying over his bed like the princess from that one fairytale…sleeping and draped in some silky and frivolous fabric. He looks so peaceful, but when Nandor approaches he notices furrowing lines and reddening shade adorning Guillermo’s fragile face. He must have cried himself to sleep, for his eyeglasses still frame his face and Nandor feels like quite the monster. He sits on the floor, oh so very close to Guillermo’s face and starts to lace his fingers through those luscious curls. He lays the stupid heart-shaped box on the floor with his free hand, and brings it to the bed so he can rest his chin upon it, gazing dreamily into Guillermo’s half-lidded eyes.

Oh.

“Hello, sleepy head.” Nandor tries to sound cheery and calm. “I didn’t mean to wake you.”

“Wh-what are you doing?” Guillermo starts to rustle about within the cape, tightly wound over his limbs.

“I was just passing by, making sure you were okay.” He stops rubbing Guillermo’s head. “And perhaps hoping you would forgive me?” Nandor throws those puppy eyes at Guillermo.

“M-master…” Guillermo sits up, and suddenly Nandor puts the heart-shaped box over his nose and mouth. He hears a slight gasp come from Guillermo’s mouth, so he takes out a rose as well, in hopes that it will surprise him some more. That makes Guillermo giggle a bit, and he accepts the items: “Did you take this from the front yard?” He says childishly with a smile.

“Noooo…Guillermooo. Why would you think I’d do such a thing?” He gives Guillermo a cheeky smile in return. Nandor could be a little cheap sometimes, but he was improving. And honestly, it was the thought that counted over anything in Guillermo’s eyes.

They share a warm chuckle, and Guillermo puts the items down to finally unwrap the cape off his body so he can present it to Nandor. He makes sure to cover his entire face when extending the cape; he’s nervous at the moment and dealing with this again is too much for him.

He hears an audible gasp from his master, and the cape is quickly taken from his hands, revealing the shy smile that slowly turns to a sorrowful one. As the grogginess of the nap leaves Guillermo’s body, he starts to remember how upset he’d been earlier that evening. He’s still not quite sure if a rose and a box of chocolates is enough to make up for–

Nandor was hugging him. His dork of a fucking boyfriend climbed up the bed and had him wrapped up in his strong arms. Guillermo thought he could blow up right about now.

“How dare you buy me the most amazing gift ever.” Nandor softens his threat with a kiss on Guillermo’s temple. “But mostly, how dare you do it in front of everyone…” Nandor breaks the embrace and looks directly into Guillermo’s deep eyes. “I’m very sorry I threw your gift on the floor.” He brushes a curl back in place with his firm fingers. “I’m still afraid of the other vampires seeing us. They’ll get suspicious…and…that thought sort of frightens me. Could you ever forgive me for that?”

Guillermo’s eyes got watery again, but he was tired of crying. He hugs Nandor this time instead.

“Of course, master.” He sniffles a bit. “I know I’m getting a bit impatient, but it’s difficult to not show my appreciation for you.” Nandor is drawing circles on his back. “Perhaps you can make it up to me at some point.”

“You silly boy.” Nandor says before going to kiss Guillermo’s neck tenderly. He pushes his body towards Guillermo, making the boy lay down, and proceeds to cover them both under that satin cape. “Only the best cuddles for my best boy.” They both kiss tenderly in the comfort of darkness, clueless to the fact that they’ve crushed the (hopefully empty) chocolate box in the act.

A Subpar Guide To Unine

I was inspired by this video, their new album coming out on May 6, 2020, and also yanjuniverse saying something about not knowing them and wondering if there was a guide or something so yeah!

anyway please enjoy my nonsense it’s fun and there are a lot of songs and performances that I recommend looking at!

if anything is unclear, send me a message or something!  i just want everyone to love Unine

Unine is the second nine member group to be created by Idol Producer/Youth With You/QCYN/whatever you want to call the competition show.  The group is made up of Li Wenhan, Li Zhenning, Yao Mingming, Guanyue or Guan Yue, Jiayi, Hu Chunyang, Xia Hanyu, Chen Youwei, and He Changxi.

The official fandom name is Nano.  Unine debuted with their EP 《UNLOCK》 on May 6, 2019.  Their album 《U-Night Flight》 will be coming out on their one year anniversary May 6, 2020.

As someone commented on YouTube under one of their videos, I can’t remember which one please don’t ask, they are a more vocal line leaning group whereas Nine Percent was more rap line leaning.  I think it’s neat to see the contrast between what people want to see in any given year and how different their music styles are.

Some members have been in or are currently in other groups as well, so you may see some familiar names if you don’t know Unine (yet ;})

Members:

Li Wenhan

Neighboring Tarzan was a good performance of his and it also contains 5/9 Unine members so that’s pretty frickin cool tbh

His audition stage was Uniq’s “Monster” and it was a great performance like Minghao and Jolin were jamming along to it

also the flower petals at the end that they then had to clean up killed me it was a beautiful effect but ill planned with the consequences

“gui-ze” meme stemmed from this performance

please let this tired man rest

He studied in the US but then left to focus on his music career

He has a great singing voice and is always ready to help his members and he is just a good leader wow

Nicknames include Shenshen and Black Pearl due to his tanned skin

He has a cat named Aoao who is a little over a year old now I think maybe?

He didn’t get noticed until his Retreat performance where he pulls his tie

He used to be one of those people who was like “this person is actually quite good; nothing’s wrong with him, but I can’t remember him” and like he considered himself like that and him debuting at the no. 2 spot was really well deserved and i am so proud

This is also the performance where he rapped and he spent so much time practicing for it and it was successful and I am just really proud of him bc he leans more as a vocal and was really struggling and wanted to make sure he did it right and i’m jsut really proud i love himso mcuh

His dancing in this stage was unmatched by anyone else there (and this sounds biased because i am)

Li Zhenning vs Li Shenshen

on stage mans is focused and completely undaunted and carries sexier concepts well

off stage mans is baby boy. baby.  he’s goofy and adorable and i love hiim so much

compares himself to a koala because “especially [his] nose shape is similar…and [his] eyes look blurred…[and he’s] sleepy all the time”

we stan a short king (he’s 5′9 which yeah, is taller than me, but still)

He dances so well and just owns any stage he is on

Rebuild is one of my favorite stages hes done and coincidentally has 5/9 members of Unine in it, though they didn’t know at the time of course

He was incredible during this stage like ugh i didn’t have a bias bc he was there, Mingming was there, Changxi was there, i had no way of surviving

Hair Color King

‘97 Liner

He is a Capricorn with his birthday being January 5

One Cool Jasco Entertainment boy

Representative Animal: Cat

He had been a trainee for six, almost 7 years, when he debuted with Unine

He had several near debuts including with Seventeen

Speaks Chinese and Korean

Because of this, he was very closed off at first with the other trainees and eventually had to have a talk with Zhang Yixing PD

The gist of the conversation was that Mingming was sort of…doubting, I guess you could say, his talents and Yixing told him to treat the show as if he were a new trainee

This led to Mingming becoming more open with the other trainees and more confident in his talents and skills and it really showed and I was really happy he was able to debut bc he deffo deserved it

Mingming’s gray and floral suit in the Rebuild stage is something i think about on a weekly basis at least it’s a really good look for him guys

also just the confidence and cockiness he has during this stage i love to see it

He also has an opportunity to really show off his dancing skills and i loved it for him

He can do imitations really well and likes to imitate Hanyu a lot

think Yesungie and Eunhyuk except accurate

He has very feline features

this has nothing to do with anything he’s just really really pretty

is it because i am biased?  perhaps

Guan Yue

Final Rank: 4

Lead Dancer, Lead Vocalist, Sub Rapper

‘94 Liner

He’s a Capricorn with his birthday being January 16

The Wind focuses on bright and upbeat music and was the first to debut in 2017

Currently there are only six members of 12C

He knows sign language as both of his parents are deaf and when the trainees are allowed to call home, we see him talking with his mother

He has a lot of love and respect for his mother and it shows

His goal in life is to make enough money to support his family so they don’t have to work

I love Guan Yue’s “Turn Up” stage like the cockyness and confidence he has is fantastic i love to see it

his costume is also pretty good esp considering what the trainees sometimes have to wear

also Shenshen and Mingming are in it as well

His performance in Ugly Beauty was incredible also

I loved his Neighboring Tarzan performance bc he was able to include his dialect in his rap part and I love when trainees are able to bring more of themselves into a performance

I want him and Chen Linong to collab bc he was essentially idp2′s Nongnong with the infectious smile and incredible stage presence

So like y’kno how Yixing was a fan of Xukun the moment he saw him?  Jolin was a fan of Jiayi the minute she saw him

The “Ugly Beauty” performance was certainly something to witness

Jiayi as a blond was a fantastic look and i miss it.  a lot.

like Neighboring Tarzan was very good look for him even tho the stage costumes were a little a lot extra

his dance was great and bitch got them body rolls on lock

Jiayi vs Huang Jiaxin

I want to see him and Justin interact so bad they had to have they’re both YH boys

@ YueHua let me please have this

Yangyang in the Neighboring Tarzan performance really emphasized how great he is at rapping

Still uses his dark looks to his advantage thoooo

he was being dramatic and mean once and then like after saying his ‘insult’ immediately cracked and started laughing and hiding his face

mans is the donghae of unine

His nicknames include Xixi and Yong Ri Didi

He loves a good ginger foot bath

Like it was such a well known fact that Yixing even asked him about it once

He wasn’t really noticed until his performance in Fire which is especially impressive considering that his performance wasn’t filmed in front of an audience but instead one of the practice rooms

there was a competition between two teams for each song and the winning team would get to perform on stage in front of the youth producers

Xixi really looked so fierce and confident in the Rebuild stage I was so proud

He also did a dance cover of EXO’s “Love Shot” and if you’ve been following me for a minute you know that i love EXO’s music and it was great to see

his killing part was also a reoccuring meme

Mingming loves teasing him and it’s so funny

UNINE Videos: (flashing lights warning)

《春日記憶 Memories of Spring》 – My favorite song by them, this is the lyrics video in Chi/Pinyin/Eng

《春日記憶 Memories of Spring》 – This is the performance from their fan meeting I believe.  The choreo is so beautiful and I want an MV like last week.

《春日記憶 Memories of Spring》 – This is their performance from the Reedit Stage.

《SET IT OFF》 – official MV.  There’s a lot of jumping out of windows, Guan Yue has purple hair, Shenshen has blue hair, and Jiayi and Xixi look great.  The song is a bop, there’s a nautical theme, what more could you ask for?  A coherent plot for an MV???  Overrated.  It’s essentially Unine’s 《RULE BREAKER》.  It’s from their second mini album “Unusual”.

《SET IT OFF》 – This is a live performance at the Mnet Asian Music Awards.  I have a bone or two to pick with the sound editor of the video  but they deliver a fantastic performance.  I like their choreo a lot and it’s more clearly able to be seen on the live stage.

《BOMBA》 – official MV.  Their first single I believe.  Very colorful and fun, the song matches the vibe of the MV.  Mingming’s iconic holding a geometric hanging light like a pear is from this MV.  Hanyu also spends half the MV wrecking my bias.  If I had more braincells I would do an analysis of the MV but alas.

《BOMBA》 – From the Reedit Stage.

《官方直拍 Like A Gentleman》  – Live performance from their fan meeting.  I really like this song and the costumes for stage are stripey and I love stripes.  The lights and screen in the background are in neons and it kind of gives the performance a nostalgic feeling and it’s just a really cute song.

《官方直拍 Like A Gentleman》 – The lyrics video in Chi/Pinyin/English.  The song is really cute you guys and Changxi and Mingming are great in it.

Videos From the Other Groups the Members Are In:

Note: this doesn’t have Guan Yue but I decided to put it in here to really exemplify the concept that 12C is about.  Also the song lowkey pops off and reminds me of my emo phase
