#rant over I just needed to get this off my chest

Chapter 10

Masterlist

Hyune greeted you with an air kiss so he wouldn’t mess up the freshly done makeup. “They were taking photos as I was getting ready. Asking interview questions.” He informed me. He knew that something seemed off about it and wanted to warn you just in case.

And he was right too. Neither of these things were discussed or approved. And they most certainly would need to make sure nothing was caught that would damage his reputation. Plus Hyunjin knew they weren’t on the itinerary you two had gone through.

“Okay, thanks. I’ll get on it.”

The following was a bit of a disaster. And in the end, you were left with a dangerous choice. Let them walk all over you, disrespect Hyunjin, and break the agreement. Or pull Hyunjin entirely and risk him being labeled or blacklisted but not being known as a pushover.

You highly doubted he would be blacklisted entirely. He was too good, too well known in the industry already for one incident to cause too many issues. He would probably be blacklisted from working with this company ever again, but if this is how they did business, did any of you want to be affiliated with them?

“My leader is on his way to deal with this since you want to be so disrespectful to me.” You said as nicely as you could muster to the company representative you had been going back and forth with for the last half hour.

“I’m being disrespectful? You are refusing to work and are even trying to cheat us out of our footage! You really don’t know your place, do you?” He returned pointing a finger at me.

No, you were not going to let him pull you back into this argument and bait you into saying or doing something to hang yourself. “Hyunjin will not be continuing with a single thing until this is resolved.” You simply warned him. Then you spun and went back to Hyunes ready room where he had stayed so they didn’t get anything else from him. You were thankful he thought ahead on that one, even hearing the argument through the doors and walls.

As soon as you were in the room with him Hyunjin stroked at your hair, offering you comfort. “Are you okay?” He asked quietly so no one else would overhear. You had shut the door behind you, but doors and walls had ears and you both knew that all too well.

You nodded at him with a tight smile. You were more pissed than you were letting on, but there was a time and place for everything and lashing out or ranting would not help this situation right now. Level heads were needed in this situation.

You both settled into chairs, not risking talking. You sat in separate chairs and didn’t touch, not being affectionate in front of people you did not trust. Instead, you pulled out your tablet to work on some backlogged media, and Hyune scrolled through his phone.

Ten minutes passed before the door to the ready room opened and you both were immediately alert. “The cameras are set up. Is he ready?” A tech asked.

The representative must not have taken you seriously and thought you were bluffing. “Like I told your boss, Hyunjin will not be getting in front of anymore of your cameras or speaking to any of you until our leader gets here or the company reaches an appropriate agreement with me.”

The tech looked over at Hyunjin, silently asking him if what you said was true. Typical. Acting like this wasn’t your job or your call. Acting like you didn’t even exist. Like since you had a vagina you couldn’t possibly know what you were talking about.

Annoyed and done with the disrespect today you stepped in his line of sight, blocking Hyunjin from view. “Hi, yeah. This is my call right now – you speak to me.” You jabbed your own chest to demonstrate.

The tech took another second before nodding and leaving the room, not closing the door behind him. Repressing a sigh at yet another sign of disrespect you stepped forward and closed the door yourself, resisting with great effort, the urge to slam it.

“You are kind of scary in business mode.” Hyune remarked idly.

Huffing out a breath you sat back down, crossing your legs. “They are trying to take advantage of you because of me. And hell if I’ll let anyone use me against any of you.” You said glaring at your tablet as you tapped on it extra hard.

“You were expecting something like this to happen.”

“Eventually, yeah. But I had hoped they would be more professional than this. They didn’t even try and be sneaky about it! Just another slap in the face.”

“What are you going to do?”

“Chan is on his way. He will take over and make the call, as leader.”

“He isn’t coming to take over your job you know, he is coming to offer support.”

“He is leader. I’m not offended. I am untested.” You shrugged it off.

Hyune seemed to let it go.

Chan arrived about fifteen minutes later, calmly but sternly entering the room and closing the door firmly behind him.

“I forgot my phone.” He announced.

You rolled your eyes. “Han told us. What did the rep say?”

He shrugged. “Didn’t talk to them. Came straight here. Though I’m sure they will know I’m here soon. What do you want to do?”

You locked your tablet and set it aside. “Up to you, boss. If he does the commercial, they will use the shots and interview, and I will have no control over when or how.” You informed him.

He shook his head. “No, this is your call, your domain. I’m only here to support you.” He held his hands up in mock surrender.

“Told you.” Hyunjin said from behind you. You resisted the childish urge to stick your tongue out at him.

You were shocked that Chan was willing to give up control like that. This would affect all of Stray Kids if it didn’t go the way the company wanted it to go. If you don’t give in and let them do what they want. You bit your lip and thought about it.

If he was going to trust you and let you do what you think was best, then you weren’t going to hold back. This company was not going to get away with this. “Speak to the rep and see if he will come to an agreement with you. He seems to feel superior to women. We need to approve when and where they use all the footage, and they need to pay for all of the additional footage and shots as well.” You explained. “A new contract will need to be drawn up, agreed upon, and signed before anything can continue today.”

Chan nodded in understanding. “Okay. Only if you come too. They need to know I support you and your decisions completely.”

You nodded and smiled, leading the way. “Hyune, call me if anyone comes in here – and don’t say a word to them.”

Hyune nodded and you and Chan left the room to find the rep, determined to get this settled one way or another. This was taking up too much of everyone’s precious and limited time.

As expected, the rep knew Chan was here and met up with you just outside the ready room door. He immediately started speaking only to Chan. “This girl here is going to ruin your reputation if you keep her around. She is trying to steal from us and is being completely unreasonable.” The rep continued to explain that the video and photos were his companies to use as they wished and that you refused to work with him to come to an agreement.

You let the man talk, not interrupting him once. You even avoided making any noises or faces to his bold-faced lies. If Chan believed them, then there were far more issues than you thought there were, and you would deal with that when you could. But Chan gave no indication of believing the man. He stood silently and let him talk, simply nodding to let him know he was listening to him. The look on Chan’s face got darker and darker the more the man talked, which the man took to be a good thing, letting it fuel further complaints and lies.

The silence hung in the air when the man finally finished his bullshit. Chan stood with his arms crossed looking pissed as hell, but was he pissed at you or for you, that was the question. And you were just a little nervous about the answer.

“Interesting.” Chan finally replied. “What do you want to do, Y/n? Its your call.” He stared directly at the rep as he asked this, daring the man to say something else.

It seemed like Chan didn't even want to try and negotiate with the man or come to a compromise, which was fine with you. You had already made your decision.

You took a second to properly formulate your response. “I’m pulling Hyunjin. The contract agreed upon is clear and it was broken by you. If any photos or video is found to have been used in any capacity, we will take action against your company.”

The rep scoffed. “You’re kidding. Do you know what you are doing? We will pull him as ambassador!”

“Thank you for reminding me. We will also be ending the ambassadorship. Stray Kids will not now nor ever associate with petty thieves such as yourselves.”

Turning back to Chan the rep pointed an angry finger at you again. You really wanted to snap it off his hand. “You are going to let her do this? Ruin you like this? Word will spread!”

“Yes, it will.” Chan began with a nod. “Word will spread that Stray Kids will not be taken advantage of. Word will spread that no one can disrespect the members or the staff like you have today.”

The livid rep took one more look at each of you before storming off, already typing furiously on his phone. You’re sure a message to his boss will be sent very soon. You planned on sending one of your own as well, complete with a copy of the agreement. The sections that were broken highlighted clearly as well as what actions will be taken should anything be leaked that was taken today. And it would also be sent to Stray Kids manager and JYP just to make sure all bases are covered.

You and Chan went back to the ready room. “Change back into your clothes, we are leaving.” Chan announced.

Hyune got to it without question or comment, and you started to gather your things.

“Thank you. Both of you.” You said when you were done. You were immensely grateful for their trust in you.

You rode back to the company together. You were on your phone typing out the long email to the president of the offending company himself, explaining exactly why Hyunjin was pulled the day of the shoots. Chan and Hyune were talking amongst themselves.

Your eyes stayed on your screen even as you arrived at the company and got out of the vehicle. You felt someone steer you away from obstacles, but didn’t bother to look up to see who it was or where you were going. You had a whole new list of things to do to fully get Hyunjin pulled, and you needed to get them done as soon as possible to avoid any more issues. And to prove that you were not bluffing, even in the slightest.

Unfortunately, not even five minutes after sending the email to the president of the offending company, SKZ manager, and JYP your phone rang in your hand and JYPs nasty face tainted your phone screen.

As you swiped to pick up you vaguely noted that you were now in 3rachas sound room and were curious when and how you got there.

“Since when do you know Korean? And what the hell happened today?” JYP immediately started shouting as soon as the call connected, not even waiting for a hello.

The three men in the room with you looked over concerned, easily able to hear JYP shouting over the phone. You rubbed the bridge of your nose. Your lack of sleep was catching up to you and you were sick of getting yelled at today.

“I’ve known Korean for most of my life. And I explained everything in great detail in the email. Did you even bother to read it, or did you just call to jump down my throat about things you don’t have all the facts for?” You snapped. This man deserved not even the little respect you were still giving him.

“What made you think it was a good idea to piss off a huge company? The president called me directly to tell me what you did!”

“I hate when he talks to her like that.” Han said lowly, face dark. It was an oddly sexy look for the quokka.

“You should have heard the people at the shoot.” Hyunjin responded. Chan nodded.

You hushed them. “Listen, asshole. I made the call. My explanation is in the email. Both Chan and Hyunjin were there and can back up the facts. I don’t give a shit if you talked to the president of the company or the President of the United States. The call was made, and I’m sticking to it. Goodbye.” You hung up before JYP could respond, done with him yelling at you while being ignorant.

“Coffee. I need a gallon of it.” You announced.

The three men were silent in shock, but Chan pointed to a small single serve machine in the corner, stocked with anything you could need to make a good cup of joe or tea. Thankful, you immediately started to brew one for yourself.

JYP didn’t call you back, though you were planning on ignoring his calls anyways. And he also didn’t respond to your email. You took this as a small victory. If not for him accepting your decision, then for not having any contact with him again.

Mainlining coffee and actively avoiding thinking about the video premiering in a few minutes, you went to the atrium to set up for filming shorts. Chan was right. It was a beautiful, sunny day. Perfect lighting and backdrop for the videos.

The challenge videos were fun to set up and film. The boys and the idol guests did their own things, came up with their own fun twists to the challenge. It was obvious how much fun they all seemed to have with it, interacting with friends they rarely got to see thanks to schedules. Getting to meet new idols that they admired. Just plain interact with other groups. The fans loved seeing them show off the friendships they had with other idols they stanned.

However, you failed to realize just how annoying it would be to listen to the same 30 second clip of a song 500 times. Not even watching them and meeting other idols yourself could stop the irritation that brought on.

You hid your red face as Chan came over with a wide, teasing smile. Apparently you are not used to compliments or praise. You learn something new about yourself everyday. People usually didn’t notice what you did because it was always behind the scenes. They just appreciate the end product.

“So, your video came out half an hour ago.” Chan gently said, knowing how nervous you were about it.

You had been trying to ignore anything to do with it. You knew the boys had been replying to comments, but you weren’t brave enough to go in and look over them to approve them because then you would have to see what people had been saying about you.

“How bad is it?” You ask picking at the table you were sitting at. Han and Hyunjin were still filming their videos. Using the setup while they could for other videos.

“Not as good as I had hoped, but not as bad as you are thinking.” Chan said cryptically. “Let’s go back to the room and we can look at them together. Away from prying eyes.”

Immensely grateful for this man, you accept his offer and his hand when he held it out for you.

When you got back to the room you claimed the couch again, pulling your knees up and letting Chan pull you against his side and hold you. You slowly unlock your tablet, dread and anxiety filling you with every tap.

“Maybe I should have someone else do this.” You suggest before pulling anything up.

“Y/n. Just get it over with.” Chan deadpanned, not letting you procrastinate any more than you already have.

You siged, knowing he was right, but still not liking it. You made a face at him, and he patted your arm in comfort, still holding you around your shoulders.

You suck in a deep breath and look at the damage.

The initial reactions to the video were the fans losing their shit. Being excited for Stray Kids. There was an unholy amount of exclamation points and emojis used, and caps lock seemed to be stuck on everyone’s devices. There were some people unsure about how to feel and they expressed that with general negativity, but not open hostility towards you, so you could handle that.

The second stage is when everyone get over their initial shock and watched the video all the way through once. Now they were watching for a second time, this time to pick you apart. Every little thing, good and bad. Picking at everyone’s answers, body language, and even micro expressions. This is where STAY started to really come to their own judgments about you. This was the part you were not looking forward to.

“Chan, STAY is going to bury me alive!” You whine after reading a comment threatening just that. You buried your face in his chest and groaned/shouted.

Chan caved his chest in trying to get away. “That tickles.”

“What tickles?” Hyune asked. He and Han entered the room, back in comfier clothes now that they were done filming videos.

“She yelled into my chest. We are reading comments on her video.”

“Ah. Freaking out?” Han guessed plopping on the couch with us and draping his legs over Chans. Hyune sat behind him, holding him up.

“Understatement! I was never meant to be known! This is nuts! STAY is nuts!” You complained, stomping your feet.

“They aren’t even all that bad. Theres lots of support here too.” Hyune pointed out. He was scrolling through the comments on his phone again, stopping periodically to reply to one. You haven’t even gotten to check their replies yet. You weren’t past the original comments.

“This one literally wants to bury me alive and take my place in the group! Word for word!”

“Okay. So that ones a little scary. The good news is you can’t be replaced. We would never allow it.”

You reached over and pinched Hyunes’ cheek lightly in affection.

In the end it was exactly as you had been expecting. STAY was divided almost 50/50 on liking or hating you. There were a couple concerning comments you promptly took note of before deleting and blocking the individual, but most negative comments were hateful, hurtful words. Words you were failing to stop from getting to you.

Though you are proud to say you only cried once. You felt that was pretty good since this is the first time you subjected yourself to this level of scrutiny and judgement.

All three of your available soulmates held you and comforted you when they saw the tears. One of them must have texted Felix and Seungmin, because they arrived loaded with comfort food.

“Don’t worry, Y/n. You get numb to most of it after a while. And there is a lot of support too. Focus on them. Haters are a dime a dozen and mostly only want attention.” Felix assured handing you a plate of food after dishing it out among all of you.

You were laying across the couch, your feet in Felixs lap. Seungmin lay on top of you slowly, looking apologetic. You let him, resting your hands on his back as you continued to work and text. Seungmin, you learned, had a love by teasing nature. He didn’t mean any harm by it, and most of his words came from being emotionally constipated, unable to properly express himself.

Absently you rubbed Seungmin’s ear shell as he relaxed on top of you, practically melting against you. Felix moved your feet and wedged himself between the couch, Seungmin, and you, sliding one arm under your back and resting his head on Seungmins back.

When he was settled you reached over and scratched lightly at his scalp before going back to work.

The rest of the day would be calmer. Mostly computer work. So Seungmin and Felix could nap peacefully without being disturbed.

Chan and Han discussed their music quietly across the room, even calling Bin when he had a free moment to assist. It was a very nice, relaxing work afternoon.

The way the Arcane fandom is super racist and likes to hide it behind their queerness is so pathetic. I see way u people like paint Mel as a heartless Jezebel constantly manipulating Jayce and forcing him to love her (because that’s just comphet ofc he would never love a dark skinned woman) or fantasize about Cait being be put in her place on her knees when you call white male war criminals baby girls with the same mouth. And don’t get me started on the lesbophobia and Butchphobia.

[science-lings]

okay this has been going through my mind for days and I have to get my thoughts out before I explode

Disclaimer, this is not talking about a specific artist/person and would never condone or participate in anon hate or online bullying for any reason but especially this one. 

I get why people are mad about Link being portrayed as this buff, hypermasculine, tall guy. I am too (again don’t fucking attack people over it though) and it seems like such an infuriating way to change the character just to fit into some ideal of hypermasculine attractiveness or to make a ship fall into a more hetero lense by making him a decent foot taller than whatever girl he’s being paired with. 

The world of video games and action movies and every form of media ever is extremely saturated with male characters that are swole and manly and whatever other descriptors people are trying to push onto Link that don’t fit into his actual character. There are so many characters out there that already fit this male standard and having a clearly androgynous elf guy was like a breath of fresh air. 

Link was literally designed to be a character whose lines on gender were blurred, ‘a girl with a masculine touch or a guy with a feminine touch’ so that anyone could project themselves onto him. His physical design in botw/totk was specifically made to be feminine enough to wear a certain outfit to pass as a woman (which includes a nearly mandatory cutscene where he puts on the clothes and blushes after being called pretty, like you have to be blind to think that its an experience that he doesn’t like at all) and in totk there are a bunch of outfits made for Link that are blatantly gnc, ones that are practically dresses, include nail polish and lipstick, you can even dye his hair bright and vivid colors and that’s half way to giving him new pronouns. The whole reason Linkle isn’t included in more mainline loz games was because her existence would force Link into a gender dichotomy, if there's a clearly female version of the main hero, that means the main hero has to be a man, and they would rather abandon a potential reoccurring character than make Link conform to a gender binary. 

So pardon me when it feels disingenuous and even malicious for him to be morphed into these clear masculine ideals, where he towers over any female romantic partner (even when in canon he is regularly depicted as noticeably shorter than her) or even in m/m fanworks he’s really beefed up, perhaps to make the scene feel more gay or something. 

Perhaps it’s because his more twink-y/ femboy body type is so heavily sexualized (though obviously when people are sculping abs on him it’s totally not because they’re horny about it) and that’s an issue in itself that bothers me. But it’s just so tiring to see one of the very few popular main characters who is short and feminine and androgynous be molded into just another bland muscle-headed action hero over and over and over again. 

I’m not mad at the creators for portraying him differently than how I like him portrayed, I’m mad because we really do get so few characters like him in good popular media, and to be honest, I really like him the way that he is. I love that he’s tiny and has long hair and has the option to dress any way the player likes. It seems a little distasteful to make him taller than a female love interest just because that’s how straight couples have to be, there’s just never been a real straight couple where the guy is shorter than the girl, that’s just Impossible! (/s) 

[fancykraken]

So tumblr premium is a go now (I got a survey about this months ago and knew it would probably happen so I'm not surprised). But the people freaking out about it... you don't have to buy it. Like...? I get it the majority of the tumblr user base freaks out about every change (aside from polls which was a good freak out), but no one is forcing anyone to do anything. Tumblr needs to make money, it's a business, and from what has been stated previously this site loses money constantly. I am not surprised in the least they're doing this. I'm more surprised it hasn't happened sooner.

But that doesn't mean not to send in feedback. Definitely do that and do it constructively. Don't yell at staff, it's shitty and the equivalent of being a Karen in a retail store. The staff always gets the brunt of the anger at every change, which sucks. It's like yelling at the baristas for serving a different type of coffee when really you want to be yelling at the manager/boss. Go yell and tell them to go fuck themselves, they're the ones who deserve it.

just when i thought i didn't have tears left to cry cause of the past few days, jack and joker can still make me cry like this

[oleanderspride]

Like yes I realize fictional others are just that — fictional. But often times the feelings FOR them are often so real that seeing other people ship with them can at best sting a bit or at worst make someone completely spiral.

If you’re comfortable sharing, that’s fine! However, that’s not to say you should look down on others who’re non-sharing, who often times do so just for the sake of peace of mind. You shouldn’t belittle people who dislike sharing or imply they have to share because that’ll be a better option for them. And furthermore, if you have opinions like that, for the love of God don’t voice those concerns publicly where potentially, your non-sharing friends can see it and feel like you’re badmouthing them.

I’m not saying you should immediately worship the ground non-sharers walk on. People can agree to disagree, but even if you don’t understand someone’s beliefs or feelings, you should at least respect it, so long as it isn’t harming anyone. I don’t know how that’s so hard to understand

[risetherivermoon]

uhhh yk people are allowed to be upset about people doing something bad right- like, just because its a mistake or something doesn't mean it isn't something you cant be upset about? im sorry im not expecting someone to say something shitty???

god im so fucking tired of the internet, its okay to be sensitive and hurt over things people you like/people who make content you enjoy do, it doesn't mean you were idolizing and putting someone on a pedestal,

yeah they're real people who make mistakes, mistakes can still be damaging and learning from your mistakes requires being told they were mistakes,

and im sorry other peoples feelings are different from yours and some are more affected by a situation than you are, especially when the thing someone says is actually an attack against a minority you are a part of

we're not blowing things out of proportion, we're people who were hurt by something, just as the creator is a person who made a mistake,

people on the internet stop invalidating each others feelings challenge

[aauroralightss]

i love reading peoples' opinions on trigun but sometimes i will see an opinion that is so like. bewilderingly wrong it actually makes me doubt my own interpretation of the source material

[quietlyblooms]

we’ll see how the rest of the day plays out, but it’s honestly just not a great mental day for me. the family excursion was fine — nothing went wrong. i just feel very overwhelmed and sensitive, and there’s not been a moment where it’s just quiet. writing might be how i recharge once i’m home, but we’ll just see. i might just lurk and take it easy uvu

[toixxx-ace]

ARGH I AM SO TIRED OF SEEING POLITICS ON MY EXPLORE PAGE

POLITICAL THEORY IS HARD TO GRASP AND THERE ARE SO MANY WORDS AND DEFINITIONS AND SUBTLETIES THAT ARE SIMPLY LOST ON ME. IS IT NOT ENOUGH THAT I JUST WANT PEOPLE TO BE HAPPY AND HEALTHY??? IS IT NOT ENOUGH THAT I DONT WANT TO HEAR ABOUT ECONOMIC THEORY AND GENDER THEORY AND ALL THAT STUFF???

ITS NOT FOR A LACK OF TRYING! I TRY TO READ AND INFORM MYSELF. I AM LITERALLY LOOKING AT A BOOK ABOUT FEMINIST THEORY AND PHILOSOPHY ON MY BOOKSHELF THAT I HAVE TRIED TO READ AT LEAST FOUR TIMES AND EVERY TIME I GET REALLY CONFUSED AND TIRED OF READING. IT GIVES ME A HEADACHE! I CANT WRAP MY HEAD AROUND IT!

[silverselfshippingchaos]

this fandom loveesss to mischaracterize g.ladio... it's like people forget what his whole fucking dlc was about 😭

[tjerra14]

sometimes I really wish there was a mandatory emotional support and grief counselling training course at uni the way that "pour distilled coffee over some sugary pills and prescibe those to a fictional cow" galenics session was mandatory

[welcomefortune]

I’m sorry but the “you need to write fic that’s unproblematic so kids who read it don’t think Problematic Thing is okay” holds a lot less weight for me when someone writes for ASOIAF than when someone writes for children’s media. When I write for ASOIAF/GOT/HOTD I’m assuming that whoever is reading it has A. read/watched the source material and B. is an adult who can think critically. 11 year olds should not be reading ASOIAF fic period they are too young to engage with the material and I don’t think it’s on fic writers/fan artists to ensure their works are appropriate for young children if they are creating content in mostly adult spaces for adult media. I think if you write for Sofia the First and are asking ppl on Roblox to read what you wrote then yeah I do think you should be more careful in what you create because that’s media intended for young children in a space that’s dominated by kids. But if you don’t have the maturity to handle dark topics I don’t know how you can handle ASOIAF to begin with bc GRRM delves into darker material than 99% of fics and fanart I’ve seen.

[thegempage]

i don't feel like looking for it rn bcus of the mood i find myself in but i need to like. tattoo that post about wishing your mind would be kinder to you and then remembering that you have to do that on my fucking eyelids.

[caluupin]

oh btw if anyone's wondering on my thoughts about the whole... Natlan thing:

yeah I'm pretty damn disappointed with hoyo for the colorism in the design here. Not to mention the localized english butchering the original names of the Natlan characters, and the only characters that seems to have a semblance of having dark skin (Iansan) not only has an ash-y tone, but also only had around 1 second of screentime. Have I mentioned that only enemies and certain NPCS get the diversity? It's there since Sumeru but man. cmon hoyo.

I won't go in further detail on this since I'm not in the position to fully judge about the representation since I'm not in the demographic that's affected by this, but as a person of color, the colorism is still very disappointing (albeit unsurprising).

I recommend everyone to voice their disappointment on their feedback forms and emails so HOPEFULLY they fix this shit.

(also out of curiosity I compared Iansan's skin color to mine and the only difference is the saturation. I barely get sunlight per day. wtf)

[likesummerrainn]

Personally in my opinion combining the Trios Titles from two different companies is the stupidest thing you could do but hey what do I know I was just a fan of ROH before it went under
