Moonstruck | 성훈 🖤 엔.하.이.픈 (⁠｡⁠•̀⁠ᴗ⁠-⁠)⁠✧

Paring: idol!Sunghoon X M!reader

Genre: Fluff. Synopsis: Taken a week vacation in the UK that Jay suggests to find out that, he's not the only child, he had another little brother?

Non proof read English is not my 1st.

This is a work of fanfiction, do not throw unnecessary tantrums on this nsfw/sfw blog. ©Shuenkio

A/N: Forget to mention m/n have the punk/hip-hop style in dressing, black from head to toe you can imagine ;) btw English here is a bit cheeky, hope you don't mind.

The World Tour comes to an end, the boy band group "ENHYPEN" gets a chance to take their own break, vacations and personal doing. It is a blessing and relief that they all get time to rest, after doing concerts non-stop, they're gonna spend time in their own way.

On the other hand, in the dorm, Jay, one of the members chit chatted with his teammates if they wanted to go on vacation in the UK. Positivity, they are all immediately drawn and agree to the suggestion idea. The boys had never stepped foot in the UK before, so why not ? Even better, Jay would pay half of the tickets too, isn't that Great? Only idiots can decline this offer.

After flying a few hours from Korea to the UK, it finally arrived. The land of the united kingdom, known as the British country. It's like entering another side of the world, people have their own unique remarkable, people speak British English, chaos and busy days, with the high technology here. This is gonna make one of the best memories ever.

Moving on to Jay's place. Actually it was one of his parents places here. After hearing Jay would bring his teammates in, his parents happily flying over the moon, quicker than the speed of light, arrive in the UK to prepare and welcome them, not to mention they have a private jet that's why.

Knocking on the tall well-built traditional door, all 7 guys greetings by Jay's parents, with a warm hug and kiss. While taking a peek inside, it is like taking a vacation in a damn golden castle. Everything is decorated in luxurious furniture, the light, the floor, and it's hella large, just imagine a mansion like.

Settled down inside, Both of Jay's parents went through the kitchen to prepare a lot of meals for the family, and the guests but that's not the case, they're all family too. Admire in the surroundings, Jay would be given them and show them their guest bedroom, and what to do and don't until most of them are in their own guest room, left Sunghoon who was there, standing alone like a lost puppy in his mate's house.

"Uh Jay-ah, where can I sleep for tonight?"

"...hmmm.. all the guest rooms are full now for them so maybe my brother's room, come on let me show you, I hope he won't be mad"

Sunghoon blinks, furrow his brows confused as Jay mentioned he just has a brother knowing all along he is the only one, when he said that, it makes no sense.

"brother? ... You had a brother? I thought you were the only child?" Said while walking, as Jay guided him to M/N room.

"it's a long story, I didn't tell you all for a reason, haha now now we're here" Knocking on the door, Jay speaks calling, for M/N name. Later, the door opened, revealing a boy who was dressed, in a very... Different style, that quickly grabs Sunghoon's attention.

"JAY?" You happily shout, knowing Jay home after waiting for him for days, greeting him with a hug, which is soon returned by him.

"M/N! How I miss you. How are you? Are you doing great?"

"well yeah I am, I'm very good and I hope you're doing okay too" You respond, crossing your hands in. Then your eyes land on a taller pale guy, behind Jay. You might know him, but he probably doesn't.

"oh, is he Sunghoon hyung?" Mutter, you peeking behind your brother's back, to see clearly. Sunghoon who was an introvert guy, feeling and surprised that you know his name, mixed with awkwardness in this kind of situation, especially with strangers, but does he have to get used to it? It's Jay's brother after all.

"you know a lot don't you? Yeah He's the Park Sunghoon that you like the most" like the most? Sunghoon's face turning tomatoes, as he is puzzling. feeling like his heart Sprint away from his own beat, so you do like him? Well when fans confess they like Sunghoon, it's just a normal reaction but when He knows you like him, it's weird, different feel from those fans. or maybe he is just shy ? Or super shy?

"Hi! Sunghoon hyung it was nice to meet you, I'm M/N" bowing down in a respectful way, you suddenly switch language once you greet him, which once again makes Sunghoon feel dumb like a lost sheep. There's so much information going on here.

"O-oh yes... M/n... Good to see you. Your Korean is nice I'm Impressed" Sunghoon greet back, feeling more used to and ease once you speak to him in Korean. After all those greetings, Sunghoon just stood there, didn't know what to do next as he watched Jay and You, asking about their days.

"oh right, Sunghoon you must be wondering. Actually he was my adopted brother. We had him when I was pre-teen. But I understand most of you guys don't know about him because we like to gatekeeping him Haha well today all the members would know, don't worry—

He is half asian and europe also, that is why he has a unique style, from his head to toe isn't it cool haha. Punk style but you'll get used to it, I know ni-ki is gonna love him—

Okay I talk too much, so M/n mind if I borrow your room for a few days? For Sunghoon? All the guest rooms are full, can he stay with you" Jay state, after the small talk. Meanwhile, M/n agree to his brother request, not that he was a creep, it because of the situation, also who wouldn't? It was the Park Sunghoon.

"Sure, hyung can sleep in my room. I'm all good"

"Thanks bud, now Sunghoon? You can settle in here— oh right... Sunghoon?" Jay called, Sunghoon catches himself zooming out to your appearance, it not everyday to see someone looking good in such style, black from head to toes. Seeing such reactions makes you chuckle, as Sunghoon snapped out, ashamed with a blushing red face before getting inside to load away his stuff.

"Right, Right I hope you don't mind me M/n"

"I should say that, hehe since you're the guest, just asked me don't be shy, I'll do it"

"Thank you ha" seeing the two of you getting along well, Jay's warm smile appears as he leaves the room, and gone downstairs.

-///-

In the rest of the evening all the boys and family, get to know you better, as you introduce yourself as Jay's adopted little brother. Jay was right when he said You'd be ni-ki favorite, because once he saw you, he imma befriended you. Exchange the number, ask about your Style, and talk for hours about stuff ni-ki wanted to know. While the other member was also surprised when they realized that Jay was keeping you well in the basement for the whole time and none of them knew about it. It can also be reasonable because of that gorgeous handsome face you got there, that catches every member's attention.

Jake would ask you to chat with him in English as he wanted to learn how to talk in British too, and so is Heeseung. Your accent makes their knee weaken with that soft tone of yours.

Jungwon would also be talking to you too, asking this or that and often joking about your brother why he is a comedian in the group. Sunoo would compliment your skin tone, the skin you got on your face stunned him in a way that he can't help, but to ask what's your skin care routine.

But for Sunghoon, He just laughed and giggled along, when the members asked or talked to you. He was so shy and afraid to make conversation with, and he had nothing to talk about. He was devastated to get to know you well just like the other but then it clicks when he learns that he'll spend every night sleeping on the same bed with you.

Yet that's fine. On the first night, you asked him if he wanted to sleep on the bed alone, if he was a light sleeper you can move to the couch but Sunghoon insisted, both of them should be on the bed. He was the guest anyway he didn't want to burden anybody.

And so on, Sunghoon got a more private chance than others when it comes to talking, especially at night when it's just the two of you. Most of the time, all night he would ask this and that, and do you have a girlfriend or boyfriend, about your life and personal thing which you happily respond to. Sunghoon was your bias of course, you would tell him everything, admire his million dollar face while you talk so, people would fight for him.

As the days passed on about a week. It's time for all the 7 members to go back to Korea. You help them pack their stuff, and so do your parents and Jay. The past few days, they are spending time with you by talking, going out, shopping and the Disney land date, it was such a good snapshot in time to get to know them all better. Before they leave you give each of them a promising and memories gift to remember this precious time together, the boys happily satisfied accepted and their heart melting to the gesture. You were so sweet.

However, for Sunghoon it was different. Even though it's just a simple gift he clearly enjoys more than the rest, and he promised he will cherish this gift for a long time.

"Thank you m/n letting me stay in your room, you're so... Cool and nice, sweet, like Jay. Here, I have my PC card haha I know it's not much but I hope you like it" gasp, you feel like you're about to ascend up to heaven as Sunghoon gives you back a gift, a rare PC card that you wised to have.

"oh my GOSH thank you hyung, I love it so much thank you woah it's sighed? I'm going to be crazy!!"

Laughing. Everyone finds the moment cute and adorable as you express yourself as a fan. Soon the time will come, you wave goodbye to the seven guys as you watch them disappear in the plane.

"Good luck hyung!! See you sometime later"

"yess" they all said in unison, enter the aircraft with a warming heart. On the way, Sunghoon can't help but to say it out loud.

"I like him, Jay"

"ehhh"

"No Sunghoon hyung, I like him first he was my buddy!" Ni-ki argue.

"ey ey ey he was my British guy before all of you guys, he was my first" Jake burst in playfully.

"but I do really like him, in a way"

"...."

"well— what "

Hii how are you? I saw your post about sending in requests soo here I am haha :)

Could you write smth with Marc guiu and like long distance relationship (reader is from another country, I'd love Germany cos I'm from there but any country is okay) and like her surprising him with a visit, maybe she comes to a game and like waits for him after as the 'surprise' kinda. Feel free to adjust or change things if you want :)

Thanks so much in advance and I hope you have a great day!

Being in a long distance relationship is hard especially when there was a time that you weren't long distance it becomes hard to separate yourself from the person you love but sometimes it has to be done. This is exactly how it is for me and Marc as a few years ago my family moved to Barcelona which is where we met and became friends for a few months before we started dating. For a year we were so happy together until my dad lost his job and got a new one back home in Germany so we had no choice but to be long distance which was so hard at first but we have made it work as best as possible but I still miss him a lot. 

A few weeks ago Marc got a move to Chelsea which he was really excited about and I was really happy for him. Between his move and preseason we haven't seen each other in like two months which is the longest we've gone without seeing each other. This weekend is supposed to be Marc's first game which he thinks I can't make it to but I've been lying to him so I can surprise him. It's not all a lie originally I didn't think I could go as I was supposed to be going to a family event but things got moved around and I just didn't tell him as I thought it would be fun to surprise him. 

Getting tickets to the match wasn't easy as they were all sold out and I'm not as familiar with Marc's new Chelsea teammates as I was with his Barcelona teammates. In the end I was brave and dm'ed one of his teammates to ask for help getting tickets and he was so helpful and gave me a way to get hold of tickets and offered to help me surprise Marc which I took him up on as I have no idea how to go about things. His teammate made sure that I knew how to get to the stadium and where would be the best place to stay the night before the game and he sorted things out so I'd be allowed into the back of the stadium with the rest of the players friends and families so I can actually surprise Marc after the game. 

Now things are all set in place and all I have to do is keep this hidden from Marc which won't be easy as we always FaceTime every night and I'm scared he'll notice that I'm not in my room as I'm staying in a hotel close to the stadium. Marc is quite observant he always notices when I've had my hair cut even if it's just a trim and he can always tell when I've changed my skincare or makeup routine so fooling him isn't going to be easy. I thought he'd have caught on before I even got here as we quite often text throughout the day and I had to have my phone off while I was on the plane but luckily I was able to say that I was caught up with something and didn't check my phone which he believed. 

As soon as I arrived to the hotel and dropped my suitcase off I went back out onto the streets to go the the Chelsea store which is close to the stadium to find a shirt with Marc's name and number on. He said that he would send me a shirt but he hasn't been able to yet as he hasn't got an official game day shirt that he can part with. What kind of girlfriend would I be if I didn't wear his shirt especially for his first game at a new club so I took matters into my own hand to try and find a shirt for myself. The store was much bigger than I expected it to be and it was filled with people but I managed to navigate my way around until I finally found a shirt with Marc's name on it which I bought and got out of there as quick as possible. 

Like clockwork Marc FaceTimed me at 8pm and I had to do my best to try and keep the camera on me and not show much of the room so he wouldn't get too suspicious. To start with Marc seemed confused and was looking at my surroundings but he didn't say anything so neither did I. We had a normal conversation about what we had done today and I had to completely make things up which he just believed as he trusts me enough to not question anything I say which is really sweet and helpful in this specific situation. We talked for hours until I had to pretend to need to go as I was supposed to be up early for this family event he still thinks I'm going to so we said goodnight to each other and I just hoped and prayed that Marc wasn't too suspicious about my surroundings. 

~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up to my alarm and a few texts from Marc telling me to have a good time with my family so I wished him luck at his game before getting up and getting ready. Once I was ready I still had hours until I needed to leave for the game and I had no idea what to do with myself. I was so nervous for Marc, I always get nervous before Marc plays but for some reason today I'm extra nervous for him. Playing for a new club in a different league especially such a competitive one like the premier league is nerve wracking and playing at Chelsea comes with another level of competition and pressure that I know Marc can handle but that doesn't mean I can't be nervous for him. 

Eventually the time came for me to leave so I changed into the shirt I bought yesterday and grabbed all my things before calling a taxi to get to the stadium. There was so much traffic on the road but I allowed plenty of time to get there so by the time I arrived there was still enough time for me to find my seat and take in the stadium before the match started. I have been to all sorts of stadiums to watch Marc play but most of them don't compare to Stamford bridge even though there was a lot of empty seats the atmosphere was amazing people were really in the spirit and ready for the first match of the new season. 

Soon enough the players came out to warm up and as always my eyes were drawn to Marc as he ran across the pitch and kicked a ball around to get himself ready. He wasn't in the starting line up which wasn't a huge surprise to me but I'm hoping he can play in the second half as I'd love to see him actually play. Watching him out there made me so excited to surprise him after the match I know he wished I could be here but he would never say that as he doesn't like to make me feel bad when I can't make it to big matches. In just under two hours I can finally hug and kiss him again which I've missed so much while we've been apart but for now I have to wait a bit longer. 

The match didn't get off to the best start with Chelsea conceding within the first 20 minutes then they had a few good chances which unfortunately they weren't be able to convert. Half time came around and not much changed but 66 minutes into the game Marc finally came on. He received a loud cheer from the crowd which really warmed my heart as I know he was worried about being accepted by the fans but that doesn't seem like it's going to be a problem. Marc played well trying to make runs and get close to the goal to help the team but ultimately it didn't make a difference as the match ended 2-0 after an 84th minute goal from Kovacic which wasn't well received by the home fans but in the end they didn't care so much about that and more about the loss. 

I wasn't thinking about the loss I was thinking about Marc, the players were still out on the pitch but as soon as they started making their way off I left my seat and headed towards the back parts of the stadium so I can finally see Marc. Security let me straight through and directed me to where I needed to go to find the locker rooms. Just as I made it down there the players started to head towards the locker room and I was able to spot Marc down the corridor as he was talking to Sanchez so he hadn't noticed me yet. The closer he got the more I wondered if he would even notice me as he was so in his own world but luckily Marc looked in my direction at the right time which caused him to stop in his tracks as he tried to figure out what was happening. 

It wasn't long before Marc realised I was actually stood there and he ran towards me and picked me up in his arms to hug me tightly. He was all sweaty from running around for the last 30 minutes but I couldn't care less it just felt so good to be in his arms again. When he put me down one of his arms stayed around my waist while his other hand went to my jaw to pull me in for a kiss. It didn't stop at one kiss he made sure to make up for at least half the kisses I've missed out on over the last two months by pressing kisses all over my face. 

"I'm so happy you're here I've missed you so much" Marc said 

"I've missed you too you were amazing out there by the way" I said 

"Thank you I was sad that we lost but now none of it matters as I've got you here" he said 

"Wait weren't you supposed to be at a family thing how are you here?" He asked 

"That got moved so I decided I'd come surprise you at your first match as I just couldn't miss it" I said 

"Well I'm happy you could make it and I like your shirt how did you get that?" He asked 

"I battled London after I got here yesterday and went to the club store which was packed but I managed to find this as I thought I couldn't come here to support you without wearing your shirt" I said 

"You are so cute but now you can have this shirt so you've got a fully authentic one" he said 

"I look forward to showing that off to my friends" I laughed 

We talked for a bit longer before he had to go and get changed so he left me with a few of his teammates who he introduced me to while he showered and changed in record time. All of his teammates were lovely and they made me feel welcome which is something I was worried about as I got along with all of Marc's Barcelona teammates really well so I didn't think it would be the same here but so far everyone has been really nice. Soon enough Marc came back and it was time for us to go so we headed to my hotel to grab my things so I could stay with him for the next few days as my flight back isn't until Wednesday as I thought we could spend an extra few days together. He doesn't have a proper place yet but he's staying in an actual apartment so we decided we would stay there. 

Once we made it back to Marc's place we settled in on the sofa and didn't move from there. He ordered us food for dinner and we had on our tv show that we only ever watch together as we have a lot to catch up on. All we really did was sit and cuddle but that's exactly what I've been missing while we've been apart so today has just been the perfect day. 

[omghallucinations]

Hey I really like your aspect observations of Ateez's birth chart. The way you explain it is so real and hilarious. Now I have stick to the status quo stuck in my head haha. Could you see what kind of life long partner they will potentially end up with based on their chart? It's really fun to see accurate the birth chart is hehe I feel like you got them down to a t

haha thank you! but wrt any life long partner, not really! i don't think the astrology chart shows the future. i think the chart shows potential. it can show what you may value or fear in romantic relationships, patterns you may have in relationships and like. past-life or subconscious or just childhood issues type things you might have about romance. it can't tell the future though. it's like how the transit of a planet theoretically could mean divorce, or it could mean pressure in a relationship, or it could mean, like, issues with a work or financial partner. it shows energy, but not the outcome.

my sister has been married twice to two totally different people and both times i could have read her chart to be like ohh yes, THIS is who you will marry. there's no exact correlation. like, a partnership isn't a destination for an individual, you know what i mean? you make choices to stay with that person or you make choices to leave. plus, you're not always attracted to the same things throughout your life. that changes too.

i can check out what romantic love patterns or issues look relevant to each of them though! important to note in advance that venus isn't just romance--it's also just relationships with others, aesthetics, anything that brings pleasure, etc, so that's not the only thing at work here.

before going into the full analysis i'm gonna put my basic takeaways for each of them, as a lol or a preview

hongjoong: married to his work and The Aesthetic seonghwa: (meme voice) i don't want somebody in my house yunho: bros before hos yeosang: who the fuck betrayed him in a past life??? wth. san: probably thinks romeo & juliet is totally logical mingi: can this kid catch a fucking break??? at least his sex appeal is off the charts wooyoung: manic pixie dream boys a protective shell for his heart, profits (?) jongho: can't relate, unlike my teammates i am an adult

hongjoong: i think he's more interested in romance as aesthetics than actual romantic relationships most of the time. he admires passion, depth and intensity (venus in scorpio) but values his independence too much to tie himself down early, plus he's fairly picky and often predicts disappointment before it happens (venus and juno in the 9th house, scorpio ruled by mars in virgo in the 8th). he's way more focused on making money and his career and self-expression (mars in the 8th, capricorn energy, saturn, SN in aquarius 1st house). his career and power tend to trump any romantic relationships (venus and juno in scorpio co-ruled by pluto in sagittarius in the 10th/career house). when he does get into a relationship, he can be fairly intense at least sexually and he's loyal (mars in the 8th, scorpio venus and juno).

the questions and themes of his life are pretty focused on him as an individual (the nature of work, dreams, creativity, capitalism??? workaholism, who am i if i do not Produce Work--Capricorn Neptune at the anoretic degree 29 (bfd degree) in the 1st, chart ruler Saturn at 29 Aries) so partnerships are not really foundational--however he needs to build a strong partnership/partnerships and learn to trust other people for his soul to evolve (nn in the 7th house). it's gonna be hard for him to learn that work is not the most important thing in life, and he has to learn to prioritize his partner or partners. he has the potential to really be in a power couple or at least become ride-or-die for his person--again, he needs to learn that he can't just feel this way, he has to also make decisions this way. he does not trust people easily (sn in aquarius in the 1st) so this will probably be later in life.

key words: workaholic, commitment, power, vulnerability, sexuality, critical

seonghwa: ah, seonghwa definitely tends to be single and focused on his career (venus in aquarius, uranus in the 7th, fuckin everything in his 10th house. honestly his intense vulnerability is so hidden and he is so affected by the emotions of other people that he may just feel better being single. his chart ruler is his moon in cancer in the 12th house--would not be surprised if he had psychic abilities lmao. he feels the need to retreat often and doesn't allow himself to lean on others easily.

he may nitpick his way out of any potential partnerships (juno in virgo) and it gives very somebody in my HOUSE???? energy. like he likes things the way he likes things and he's not wiiiiild about compromising. saturn is wilding out in the 10th house, so he truly puts work first and his commitment to some societal conditioning or expectations can really hold him back from acting (conjunct mars) and from self expression (square ascendant)

his venus in aquarius has almost no major aspects--it is essentially unaspected, which gives a planet a special flavor. i like this description--imagine all the planets as a play. you are the play. with the aspects between them they are all working together to do the dialogue, etc. then there is the unaspected planet, just chillin'. very much not part of the play but very much on the stage anyway. this can be at the back of the stage, so his aquarius venus energy is underused, or at the front of the stage stealing all the attention, so his aquarius venus energy asserts itself more than anybody else. tbh i think for seonghwa it is the latter. he feels different from other people and a little detached or abstracted and that colors his relationships.

an unaspected planet is like, insanely obvious to everyone else as a clear like. preoccupation and fascination for the person and pure expression of energy, but the person can't see it. everyone looks at seonghwa and is like, ah yes, someone who is clearly fascinated by unconventional (aquarius) expressions of aesthetics and being (venus) but he's like what?? me?? but i'm so normal and regular! i love normal gender and normal things like that!!! even while we all kind of go... uh... huh... uh-huh...

anyway he wants a perfect partner (neptune in the 7th, juno in virgo) who will somehow never disrupt seonghwa's like. things and life that are arranged exactly how he wants them. but a perfect person does not exist so he ends up single a lot of the time! he's an odd duck for sure and he'll want an odd duck to date, but saturn is really telling him that it's important to be Normal which unfortunately inhibits him a lot (saturn in its fall in aries conjunct mars at home in aries).

yunho: he fears commitment and likes to be in control in relationships, which is honestly a way to protect himself (juno conjunct pluto) and he may build in restrictions or limits to the relationship himself (venus conjunct saturn) probably around work (venus in the 6th house). he fears betrayal subconsciously (venus opposite mars in scorpio in the 12th). he values stability and practicality and probably doesn't talk about any negative feelings he has with his partner, so he will break up very quickly when he starts to get nervy.

his moon is in his seventh house in gemini, so this is a lot of contradictory energy. the moon in the seventh house of relationships usually would indicate the domination of romance over his emotional life, a deep desire for a relationship, sometimes getting married young, but it's all in gemini which really doesn't want the entree, it wants the sample plate. he wants to have fun and chat and flirt and explore and having too many feelings is yucky and boring. in some ways he really wants the stable relationship, but it's in conflict with his subconscious security blanket of individual liberty and freedom and being single basically (pluto in the 1st house). he admires freedom in his partners but also fears it.

hate to say it but there's the potential for toxic relationships here, in whatever form that takes. he has real control issues and the ability to manipulate others--likely unconsciously. luckily he's incredibly personable and friendly (sun conjunct jupiter) and most of the time he is more focused on his friendships and the group in general. in other areas of his life he's fun and fancy free and more of a peace-keeper and practical, sensible, chill person who doesn't sweat the small stuff. it's likely his intense feelings in relationships freak him out so he's likely to keep people at a distance.

yeosang: oh boy he has a real protective coating for his emotions to hide them from others (moon in cancer conjunct IC) and some real intense pain--possible past life issues here--around intimacy and/or betrayal (scorpio chiron at 29 in the 8th house). he has a really hard time saying no to people and this can be difficult in intimate relationships because he's constantly trying to gauge what is better for the group (mars in virgo in the 7th house, south node in aquarius in the 11th). he probably idealizes his partner a little bit too much (venus in leo in the 5th) and can live in a fantasy world (venus opposite neptune) that detaches him from the world in a way (neptune in aquarius in the 11th).

he can get into not very good relationships that have some restrictions and judgment and power struggles (venus square saturn in taurus in the 2nd and trine pluto), possibly that he meets through work (quincunx MC) and his insecurity does not help (venus semisquare sun). he can be a bit passy aggy. still, forming close relationships is the whole Thing of his personal soul journey (venus conjunct NN)--but it's also about learning to assert himself and have balanced relationships.

honestly though i think yeosang is more of the dipping-his-toe in type, probably has a lot of fleeting crushes he never acts on. he can be very flirtatious and tbh people may read him incorrectly and think he's more into them than he is. he's more comfortable single, even if he does have romance in his soul (sn conjunct uranus in aquarius in the 11th, leo venus). that past life baggage is heavy (chiron conjunct juno in scorpio at 29 in the 8th) and keeps him more comfy flitting on a surface level (sun in gemini, chart ruler mars in libra).

key words: idealizing, passy aggy, hesitant, past life betrayals

san: i think it's likely he has many short, intense relationships that he ends up self-sabotaging (south node in the 5th house, leo venus in the 12th house, chiron square venus). serial monogamist vibe. he is romantic, a little ego-centric but passionate and extroverted, in a secretive, deep-feeling and spiritual way (leo venus in the 12th house). this deep spiritual flashy love for romance and kind of love-bombing vibe (although he genuinely means it lmao it's not a tactic) runs into trouble because he has deep pain and past life baggage around romance, partnership, communication, as well as feeling misunderstood (venus square chiron in scorpio in the 3rd house).

he's gonna wanna talk and deeply communicate to get through that (scorpio, 3rd house) but his trust issues both in others and in himself (chiron, south node in aquarius) means he often bails too fast or subconsciously causes unnecessary arguments to get out (jupiter opposition scorpio mars in the 2nd). still he is optimistic and exuberant about love, sex and intimacy and is always ready to jump into something new (venus trine taurus jupiter in the 8th). he wants intense, all-consuming, romantic and passionate love--but once he's in it he doesn't always trust himself or the other person--sometimes rightfully so, as san likely lets himself be blinded by romantic possibility and others may take advantage of him, or simply not be down with the kind of intensity san brings to the table. (juno in scorpio conjunct chiron).

mingi: mingi's big life thing is a lot about struggling to communicate about his emotions (mercury in cancer at 29 degrees) so this is gonna gum up the works with relationships here. i hate not knowing houses because that can really change everything, but just knowing generally we can still do some work--he is practical but also kind of critical in relationships (venus in virgo) and can overthink everything because of his ideals or dreams of the "perfect" relationship (venus quincunx neptune in aquarius) or him thinking about what else may be out there. venus is ruled by mercury in cancer, so his trouble with communication really affects his relationships.

venus is also in its fall in virgo. when a planet is in its fall, it's like it's in another country where it doesn't know where it is, can't speak the language, doesn't have any currency, that kind of vibe. he'll struggle with this for sure but like anything you struggle with it can become your greatest strength. mingi really has a hard time with interpersonal relationships--romantic and platonic-- and finds it hard to navigate them. he can be critical of other people because he is so critical of himself. he makes judgements of other people quickly and has a hard time letting go of them. his venus is also retrograde--jesus can this kid catch a break??? i also have this--it's not that bad all by itself, mostly just means that you're gonna get things wrong a few times before you get it right and often you'll find your partner when you're a little older--but with everything else, jeez.

he probably has past life trust baggage like yeosang (venus square chiron and pluto), and some early life struggles with rejection and pain. if he's not careful he can become a bit manipulative (venus square pluto) because he usually thinks he's right (pluto in sagittarius) and honestly things often turn out in his favor (pluto trine north node) so that enforces the belief.

on the flip side of the manipulation, there's the potential for mingi to get into toxic relationships with people who treat him badly (juno conjunct chiron) or he may hurt them in return--though with both chiron and juno trining mercury in cancer i would assume it would be vulnerability to believing and empathizing with someone who may not deserve it because they nurture him and he wants badly to be nurtured. like with everything, there's the potential for either. pluto and lilith exactly conjunct at 7 degrees, very loosely conjunct chiron and juno and square venus -- there is a ton of sexual energy and the potential for power and pain, also seen with mars at home in scorpio.

every time i look at mingi's chart i'm like "oh jesus chriistttttttt bro give him a break" but hard charts often mean you turn out to have wayyy more depth and wisdom as you get older and tbh i prefer someone with a difficult chart to someone with a quote unquote easy chart.

wooyoung: ahh. oh boy. people like him and he likes people (venus at home in libra in the 1st) but how deep does he allow it to be? honestly he has a lot of fears and hangups around intimacy. he tends to jump into relationships and then keep the person at a distance either because of his career or his large friendship group/multiple romantic relationships (jupiter in aries in the 7th house square mars exalted in capricorn, juno in the 3rd). tbh he has a tendency to play manic pixie dream girl subconsciously as a way to keep himself safe from Being Perceived And Therefore Getting Hurt (venus in libra in the first trine uranus in aquarius in the 5th, uranus square mercury and saturn). relationships are a huge part of wooyoung's journey (libra rising, venus in the 1st, SN in the 5th) although he has to learn not to rely on them so much. true intimacy is tricky for wooyoung because he's actually pretty insecure (venus semisquare sun) and fears exposure.

he does genuinely need independence and honestly probably an open and/or polyamorous relationship (uranus trine venus, juno in sagittarius in the 3rd house) but he needs to learn to feel safe at at home and feel safe being Observed and learn to trust others with his very vulnerable and sensitive heart (moon in cancer, moon quincunx mercury). this is all honestly very tricky for him. he does really enjoy the push-and-pull, and also he can suddenly go cold on someone in a way that can stop progress in its tracks (mars at 29 in capricorn 4th house).

a partner is going to have to be smarter than wooyoung to keep his interest--wooyoung clocks it when he's smarter than someone or has someone in his pocket very easily and that will automatically make a person less appealing (mercury in the 2nd square uranus in aquarius in the 5th, mars exalted in capricorn). it's almost like he thinks that if someone is too into him wooyoung actually tricked them into liking him, therefore they don't like wooyoung they like the manic pixie dream boy and/or they like how wooyoung makes them feel, and the person believed wooyoung's trick so that makes the relationship not real and also makes the person too gullible so it's like ugh, never mind, ew. ugh. wooyoung has to learn to accept love. subconsciously he doesn't believe he deserves it (8th house saturn opposite mercury, square uranus, quincunx pluto, square lunar nodes). it makes him look callous or flighty or whatever but the root of the issue is his own feelings of unworthiness.

jongho: hahahaha another #same from me, he has saturn at 0 degrees, which basically is like. when a planet is at zero it is SO EXCITED to ACT OUT THE VIBE that it often overreaches. he probably has the ability to act insanely practically in a way that someone would be like oh my god, so COLD, so HARSH, but it's not meant that way at all. although he truly can dispassionately make a choice. he can go cold on people though. his venus is in scorpio (he's passionate, loyal, intense) which is ruled by his mars in virgo (can be critical, picky, discerning). venus in scorpio is also venus in detriment so like, he definitely can be passionate but he's gonna express love in sort of a sideways way sometimes.

his venus is trine his north node and sextile his south node which means that relationships with other people are essential to his soul's growth and journey--which is moving from capricorn to cancer, from sort of ruthless practicality, career, workaholic, anxiety, to accepting his deeper emotions, sort of like moving from society to home.

he likes people who are doing their own thing (juno in aquarius conjunct uranus) and are just as independent as he is (venus square uranus). he doesn't want someone who is clingy. tbh he's not like. the most nurturing individual, surprise surprise (juno conjunct uranus). however relationship things often work out well for him (venus exactly trine nn) and even though he can be pretty logical at all costs, it's not a tyrannical thing really. he has pretty good judgment (saturn trine neptune), if a little attached to societal conditioning.

lmao truly hate to say this but it's possible he has a sort of madonna whore thing with partners (juno opposite lilith) he'll have to get over. it can be a madonna whore thing within himself also--like he can be in a relationship with someone or he can be a freak in the sheets, but not both at the same time. sex and intimacy can be separated.

overall jongho seems like the one who fears true intimacy the least (except for san, a freak in the sheets and streets) although he also genuinely isn't a super emotional person (MOON AND ASCENDANT AFFECT THIS SO IDK FOR SURE)--just kind of an anxious or tense one at times.

Wyll's Enchanted Boots

Set somewhere in acts 1/2, once the group is more comfortable with each other. Astarion is a little sh!t prankster

"What did he do this time?"

"Enchanted Wyll's boots," Karlach snorted. "Poor guy can't get them off."

Shadowheart sneered. "He's going to give away our location if they don't keep it down."

"You want to get in the middle of their prank war, go ahead. They've been obsessed recently. But I think Gale or Tav cast something that soundproofed the camp before they left. Pretty sure we've all been making noise."

"Help! HELP! Get these things ohooooofffff! GaHA! TICKLES! IT TICKLES! Oh my GAHAHADS! HEEEEELP!" 

"No one will save you, darling fool," Astarion was watching Wyll roll on the ground struggling to remove the cursed boots. His smile was smug and satisfied - Wyll had been especially sassy and righteous during their travels that week and Astarion had had enough. He was sitting in a chair above the downed fighter swirling a wine glass with the occasional sip. "Another few minutes and that will have made up for all of those comments on my rat diet."

"Feheheathers! Th-thousands of feathers!"

"Yes dear, I'm sure it feels that way!"

Shadowheart shuddered, but she had weighed the options in her mind. "Oi! Astarion! Those were a good pair of boots. Why did you need to waste them with a curse like that?"

The vampire put a hand to his chest in false hurt. "This? A waste? I think not dear, I am more than satisfied with the results. Wyll, darling fool that he is, may have stepped into them unwillingly but now whoever wants to laugh themselves silly can do so anytime they please. It only lasts as long as you can keep them on…" He chuckled darkly.

"And will it be your turn after he manages to get them off?" She raised a brow. 

"I'd kinda like to try," Karlach shrugged. 

"Then pull them off meeeee! HaHAhahahaaa!" Wyll wailed.

"Nah, looks too intense. Or are you that sensitive?" She teased. "You walk around camp with a crop top Wyll, can't say I blame Astarion for getting ideas."

"And he has an extra pair of normal shoes lying around somewhere," Astarion waved his hand. "Unless they're enchanted too and Gale ate them...Hm. Heh. Heheh. Good luck fighting whilst laughing your arse off."

Shadowheart clicked her tongue. "It has been mere minutes, and he is crying."

"Heeeeeeelp!"

"Enough Astarion," Karlach laughed. "He's had enough."

"Alright, alright," Astarion sighed and set his glass down. "Hold still darling. Stop kicking your - hey! Stop kicking for a minute! Yes, thank you. Excellent self control. Let me pull the left off first…that's it, dear. Here you go, Karlach. You slip it on and it'll start tickling after a few moments. I'm only giving you one boot, otherwise you may get too excited and blow us up, you sweet touch-starved barbarian. Now Wyll, if you kick me again I'm leaving this one on….Alright goooood….Aaaaaand you're free!" He stood back up with a delighted smile and offered the other boot to Shadowheart. "Curious?"

"Hells no," She crossed her arms. 

"HEH! Heheheh. Haha, oh my, heheh, ohoho!" Karlach broke out into higher pitched giggles than anyone would have thought. "Hehehey! This isn't bahahad!...This is nihihice! H-how ticklish are you Wyll? Heheh!"

Wyll stayed on the ground as he watched his teammates and friends have fun. "I'm," he gasped, "I'm happy…at least one person…can enjoy that torture device…heheh…"

"Two people," Astarion reclined back on his chair like a cat. "I'll leave the pair by Halsin's tent when they come back and then we can get a proper show. You'll be thanking me."

Shadowheart looked down at the boot, up at Karlach who had taken a seat on the ground and was giggling, and sighed as she sat down beside her. "A kind gift you've given her," She said to Astarion. "But I'm curious as to why you want to see us laugh?"

"Better a smile on your face and cheer in the camp than slowly angering ourselves to murder darling, cruel pranks lead to cruel actions," Astarion set his glass down and stood. He spoke from experience with his spawn 'siblings.' "Now then. I'm going to-"

Wyll grabbed his ankle with a playful look in his eye. "Going to what?"

"Going to escape your grasp," He shook his leg, and when that didn't work he bent over to unwork Wyll's fingers around his ankle. "Going to…to just sliiiiide myself out of here while you loons have your fun…"

"Oh I think he deserves some form of payback for that," Shadowheart smirked and helped Wyll pull the vampire's legs out from under him so he landed face-first on the ground. "Us loons do want to have our fun."

Astarion yelped and tried to scramble away again, but he soon joined Karlach in a giggle fit as the pair squeezed his legs. Wyll was working on pulling off one of his shoes as Astarion did everything in his power to not actually kill the two. "H-hey now! I, heh, I thought thaHAT you'd prank me some other wahay! Gehet off yohou weirdos! AHEH! HEE! N-not the kneHEES! HEE!"

"You've been pranking us with laughter for weeks and we're the weirdos?" Shadowheart took more pleasure than she should have from making Astarion squeak. He was on the ground squeaking from their pinching and scribbling into the backs of his knees.

"It's only fair, Astarion! Stop kicking, you know you deserve to laugh just as hard as I did! C'mon Fangs," It took a few seconds, but Wyll managed to tug the enchanted boot over Astarion's one foot and sat on the pair of legs so he couldn't pull it off. "Karlach, get his other one!...Karlach?"

She appeared to be off in her own world, enjoying the teasing magic.  

Astarion's giggles became consistent and louder. Not that being pinned and forced to take their revenge helped, but he had not anticipated the boot actually tickling so much. Shadowheart was also on his waist pinching his sides from behind with her slender fingers now. Embarrassed, he hid his face in the crook of an arm and tried shooing her hand away with the other. He shot both back down when she slid them into his armpits, and they were pinned there making him cackle. He could only writhe on the ground and laugh at their mercy - yet he would take this over Cazador's punishments any day. His teammates weren't interested in hurting him when he acted out.

This was fun.

Wyll had decided to grab Astarion's free foot. Holding it by the ankle on the ground, he scratched his nails over the sole.

Not so fun. The nails were far worse than the feathers the boot tickled with.

Wyll exclaimed, "The Blade of Frontiers always finishes his fights! Give in yet, fiend?"

Astarion arched his back, raising his head high. Tears prickled the corners of his eyes and he had the largest grin only Shadowheart could see from the angle she sat at. "Yes, YEHEHES! GET OHOHAHAFF!"

And they did. 

Shadowheart patted his back when she slid off, and Wyll got off of his legs. "Need help with the boot?" 

Still giggling, the spawn pulled himself up and started to pull the enchanted item off with far more ease than Wyll had been able to. The other boot was tossed into his lap, and he saw Karlach cross-legged wiping her own eyes. 

"That was fun!" She exclaimed. "Haven't been touched like that before. Thanks, Astarion. I'll borrow those again." 

He coughed and snuck quick glances to Shadowheart, who was smirking at him on her knees, and Wyll, who was still dangerously close to his feet. When they made eye contact he wiggled his fingers in the air teasingly. "Juvenile pranks don't go unpunished, Astarion. Truce?"

They won't hurt you. They're having fun.

I'M having fun.

He pulled himself together after a second, pulling the smirk back over his face as a familiar mask. "How about well deserved pranks? You've been a brat this week Wyll, and I'm not above making you laugh as hard as you do your enemies."

"Tickling enemies is my thing!" He shot back. "You got these ideas from Gale and I!"

As they bickered, Karlach plucked the boots back from Astarion and grinned at Shadowheart. "I'll put these by Halsin's tent. It'll sure be a sight when they get back. I'm going to go sharpen my blades before these two start tickling each other again."

"I'll join you," As Shadowheart stood, Astarion indeed leaped onto Wyll and tackled him to the ground. Straddling him, he dug into the bare skin Wyll's cropped top exposed and loud laughter once again filled the camp. 

She smiled. Without realizing it, Astarion was great at team building.

Hi! I just read through your post defending Logan (I reblogged it with a kinda-long addition haha) and I just wanted to say thank you for putting that out there. I hadn't done all the research or known any of the specifics, I just knew about his insane ability and potential. I love that you said you'd defend him with your life, because I feel the exact same way. I feel like there's so much power in your post, if that makes sense... it's one thing to see reblogs of logan videos with captions saying "how could you hate him 😢" and stuff (which no hate to anyone who does, I'm guilty of doing this too and I don't think there's anything wrong with it!!) But I just think it's so special and so important that you actually went out of your way to do the research, learn the info, and share and demonstrate just how remarkable he really is.

I'm sorry this ended up being so long!! All this to say, truly thank you so much for defending him, and honestly I'd love to be your friend because you seem like such an amazing person and I need more LS2 defender friends 😅

I hope you have a great day 🫶🏻

hi !! thank you so much for your kind words , this was so lovely to read in response to my logan post 🥹 i genuinely did not expect it to gain as much traction as it did , i was just upset one day and decided i needed to write that post about him so that others can gain some perspective on him and his situation . and i fully agree about what you said concerning reblogs of logan videos !! yes i agree , there's nothing wrong with reblogging videos / photos of him and captioning them "how could you hate him :(" because i , too , have done the same ! but not everything knows the full scope and extent of his career and talent capabilities , hence the need for further explanation on why we could never hate him . logan haters see posts about logan with captions like "how could you hate him :(" and don't get an explanation for why he's better than everyone thinks . often times , they end up thinking we just love him because he's cute and has a good personality -- which he does , and i love that about him !! but there's more to him than just those things , and understanding WHY he's a good driver and WHY we love him outside of the surface level version of him we've seen thus far in f1 is so so so important .

and it becomes especially important when logan haters only see his career in f1 so far and don't see the little wins he's had along the way . they focus solely on his crashes , the "destructor's championship" , and how alex is doing in comparison to him . they seem to forget that alex has been in formula 1 longer than logan . they seem to forget the hardships that alex had -- must i remind us of his redbull years ?? they seem to forget that alex has had more time to develop his skill and become a better driver than logan . and it's such a frustrating thing , because logan is then immediately credited as a "bad driver" when he's nothing of the sort !! he just needs support from his team , the proper amount of experience before getting into f1 (though by now that's a little too late because of how quickly williams jumped him up to f1) , and he needs to be getting the same upgrades as his teammate ???? it's genuinely ridiculous that they're having him drive a car that's heavier and has outdated (2023 !!!) parts and expect him to do as well as his teammate who has a MUCH lighter car and new parts .

and no worries about your message being long !! i'm sorry that my response ended up being super long , too , haha -- i am just so so passionate about people knowing drivers' past before they jump to conclusions and hate on them . the drivers in f1 are there for a reason and they're the top 20 in the world . they were chosen for a reason . that means that logan sargeant was chosen for a reason , and they're treating him like crap currently . williams needs to shape up so that logan can start showing the most of his potential and show how good of a driver he is , rather than constantly being pushed out of a moving car onto the highway -- aka what they're doing to him now !!!

i would love to be your friend , too !! i love making new friends who love logan the same way i do , and who have the same interest in formula 1 as me !! just send me a dm :))

you have a wonderful day, too !! <3

Honestly the “JLU Wally is YJ Wally” HC/AU has so much wasted potential. Not only angst but also. Imagine how fucking funny the whole situation could be. Imagine

Wally, against his wishes, goes to an undercover mission with the League. When something inevitably blows up, he gets (reasonably) angry and starts muttering about how “It's a curse, I swear. I am not feeling the aster right now. So not whelmed, man”. Shayera looks at him confused, because what the fuck does aster mean?

He gets banned from going to undercover/recon/non-fighting missions

When he figures something that he feels should have been obvious up he says “Hello, Megan!” and facepalms. He does it a lot, and refuses to explain when someone asks him why or what it means

He's the youngest in the team but he's also one of the most experienced

People usually think that the reason why he tends to not tell the league about what his next move is going to be in battle or why he's so uncoordinated when working in a team is because he's arrogant and refuses to listen. It's actually because he's so used to having the mind link to communicate that now he finds it hard to talk out loud with his teammates sometimes. He's working on it

He'll ask someone something and then get frustrated when they don't answer him, only to remember that he never actually said anything out loud

Not having people in his mind all the time feels kind of lonely. Maybe that's why he was so much happier than usual when J'onn was forced to make a temporary mind link for a mission

He gets frustrated because he wants to watch a show he likes but then remembers that the show doesn't exist because it was created in like 2008. It's a pain

He talks to Shayera about his other red-headed sister, ‘Megan’, and gets uncharacteristically sad and quiet when she asks if she could meet her someday

The original JL members started to pick up on some of the stuff he says, so the phrases “Hello, Megan!”, “Get whelmed” or even the word ‘crash’ are commonly heard in the Watchtower

His relationship with Superman is complicated because he's used to holding some resentment for not being patient with Conner when he first met him so sometimes he's too salty with him, but then he remembers that that was another Superman and it gets awkward pretty quickly

If his relationship with Superman is complicated, then imagine how it is with Batman and Zatanna. One is his best friend's dad from another universe and the other is his friend he's known since he was 14 from another universe who is now older than him

And imagine how it'd be with Red Tornado. He's so used to having the guy as some kind of mentor that being his superior feels off. He tried to connect with him but it was just too awkward for him to handle

He. Misses. Barry. And. Iris.

He finds out that the Jason of this universe came back to life and wonders if his Jason came back too. Too bad he's never going to find out

Let him break down a little. Let him live with the knowledge that he's all alone now (pre-JL). Let him be depressed over the fact that his aunt doesn't even know him because both him and Barry are dead in this universe

He thinks about how he was going to propose to Artemis and doesn't show up to league meetings and missions for three weeks

“Why weren't you here?” “I had some stuff to do haha sorry” (he was laying in bed crying)

Certain things, like eating ice cream or going out to see movies, just aren't as appealing as they used to be. Everytime he sees teenagers hanging out, laughing with each other, he can't help but think about how that could (should) be him

He had to quit the team (more like was forced to quit) because his powers were killing him. Now he's back on the field and isn't dying anymore, but he can't help but think that maybe if he was then he wouldn't have cared much

Wally meets the Nightwing of this universe and immediately starts crying

Think about this: Dick doesn't know him, who know what's up with Roy, Artemis is a criminal, Kaldur probably doesn't even exist, Conner also doesn't exist (yet), Zatanna's way older than him and M'gann is dead. Just. Take a moment to think about it

He has to live with the knowledge that he's probably never going to see his friends, his family again. He has to live with the knowledge that he has no one to go to when he has speedster problems. He has to live with the knowledge that he'll never go home

Clark brings his Ma's pie to the Watchtower once and Wally gets so emotional because it smells sm like the pies he used to (try to) make with Iris and Barry (it was apple pie. They always failed so they bought one from a bakery, and Ma's smells sm like those he can't help but remember the good old days lmao. He cries)

I said this once and I'll say it again: he was going to propose to Artemis

He died knowing that he would never be able to make amends with his soulmate best friend

He has to go on a mission where he sees this universe's Artemis (a criminal) and no matter how much he tries to help her and turn her into at least a civilian, he still wasn't able to make her be even close to his Artemis

He has one of those scenes where the hero (Wally ofc) says “You could come with me. I'd help you. You could get away from the people that hurt you and, if you want to, I'd live you alone once you're safe. I can promise that”, and the villain (Arty) is like “Omg really...??” and acts all hopeful and shit but ends up being “Sike no, I'm never going with u wtf”

He finds out Hal exists in this universe too but is in another planet and looses his shit lmaoo

But like srs. The potential this shit has is amazing and ppl should acknowledge it more

The jealous j*v*a gag was never funny but girl really got jealous over a CAT and Gray dancing for fun with his child teammate. Do people really find this endearing? funny? She makes every interaction Gray has into something gross. Don't get me wrong it isn't funny when she does it with Lucy either (this is an extremely toxic relationship and I don't like to see it portrayed as cute or funny), but her acting like he's into Frosch or Wendy disgusts me (idk if it makes sense haha)

juvia Believes in the Worst of Gray, and she Couldn't Care Less

Oh, you make perfect sense to me, Anon, and you make such a good, damning point against juvia.

I love how you phrase it because it's just so accurate:

"she makes every interaction Gray has into something gross".

The fact that in juvia's mind, Gray could be a p*dophile or someone who practices b*stiality, is just beyond disturbing, for multiple reasons.

A, if she really thinks Gray is capable of those things, and still "loves" him, then what does that make her? Someone who supports those things too. Jail. Jail right now.

B, despite thinking those things about Gray, there's no acknowledgement from juvia that that's so very wrong, there's just, as you say, jealousy. Instead of putrid disgust, juvia feels jealous over a child and a cat. That's revolting, immoral, and just downright pathetic.

C, it just shows how juvia does not know Gray at all, what his values are, whom he loves, what kind of a person he is. And nor does she care. And yet this is the woman we're supposed to want to be with him. Right. That checks out.

D, what's more, Gray can do no wrong in her eyes (clearly), so if Gray likes Wendy or Frosch, guess what, it's not Gray who's the problem here- it's the child and the animal. They're her love rivals, they're whom she must conquer in a battle of love. The two who would be victims to Gray if this deluded insanity juvia believed about him was true are the very ones juvia points her gnarled finger at and declares war on. (Hypothetical) Victim-blaming/abuse at its finest.

You're right, Anon, that this jealous gag isn't funny even when inflicted on women of Gray's age and species. It's just uncomfortable, cringe, toxic, malicious, and sad. But it's infinitely more despicable when juvia's delusions and fantasies paint such a horrid picture of Gray and those around him, where his morals are misrepresented, his reputation tarnished, where such evil, perverse things are presented as if we're supposed to laugh at it.

This point doesn't get talked about enough (by myself included), but it truly is one of the most damning pieces of evidence of why juvia is a loathsome, detestable human being, and why she should never be with Gray.

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me, Anon! This is truly a very important point to be made, and I am very grateful to you that this could be addressed very carefully on my blog.

[silly-gh0st3]

She specializes in prosthetics and battlefield medicine. Her name is Natalia and her segment designation is Xi. 

Im still working out her goals. My current ideas are that she wants to study teyvat through the lense of the limits of humanity. I need to fully figure out what exactly Natalia is studying in teyvat that involves basically turning people into cyborgs. Sure, being influenced by dottore would have her want to make people as strong as gods, but does she want to twist people like balloon animals into all sorts of horrifying shapes using prosthetics and cybernetic technology to see what can be unlocked? Is that the limits of humanity she’s after? Would there be something in irminsul her prosthetics technology could affect? Are cyborgs unable to reenter the leylines if they’ve forsaken their humanity? What constitutes as humanity? Is she shoving souls into prosthetics to use to improve Fatui soldiers? I have so many questions and ideas ha ha h e l p  

She also wants to leave the laboratory to be able to do this but as she makes prosthetic organs for dottore, she has to be on standby. She also wants to be seen as a good scientist by dottore, she def has those gifted kid vibes, so that she’ll be granted more privileges like being able to leave the lab. But she gets the authority to conduct her experiments by being in dottore’s back pocket. She also worries about not making progress to her goals of studying teyvat fast enough, and worries that if she falls behind on scientific progress dottore will get rid of her for being useless. Anyway yeah she has a lot of internal conflict. Potential for a character arc of her regaining everything she needs for her experiments but without the help of the Fatui if she decides to run away, bur who’d want to run away from the Fatui am I right?  

She’s 30 years old and 6’ tall but wears 3” heels. I post a lot of pics of her lmao. I’m slowly filling out a large questionnaire of character creation questions haha help me. 

she thinks discussing emotions is showing weakness and thinks therapy is a scam. She prioritizes her work in gathering knowledge through science as more important than anything else in her life. She also tries to make logical decisions about 95% of the time but there are moments when she’ll act impulsively in terms of personality she is rather obsessed with her work, but she’s also quite petty and a little haughty about being a “true scholar”. She has reverence for science, and scoffs at others who don’t. She also has a mental hierarchy, and that determines if she’ll accept or reject criticism from someone. 

Her voice sounds like a mix between cold and calculating and a little, I don’t know how to describe this, sultry? Something like Kafka from HSR. She is a certified yapper, she may be quiet and focused on her work but get her talking about her studies and she will not shut up. 

If she was playable she’d be an aggressive claymore dendro healer that heals based on edmg. The amount of healing done would equal 110% of the edmg. I’m still figuring out what her skills would do, obviously she’d need an infusion thing to make the healing work. And she’d heal when dendro edmg is done even by other teammates who are infused by her dendro.

Oh and she obviously needs a boss fight because ofc so I’m not sure about the monologue or phase one but phase two would have her in a crow themed battle suit where her extra arms would be strapped into crow themed wings. And how she’d get into this mech suit would be that she would stumble backwards into it and have it activate on impact, or something else I haven’t decided. Her boss theme would have kind of a mechanical vibe like uh coordinate shift by ferry, but obviously would have the Latin chanting and fatui letimotif.

I Lowkey forget I have this app 💀💀💀💀

But!! She sounds really cool !

I think Theta and Natalia wouldn’t get along, it’s sort of the thing where siblings compete for their parents attention. Theta is the age range of a sometime when Dottore was in the Akademyia, so they’re kinda desperate to be seen lol. Although Theta does well in hiding that desperation for approval and appears arrogant to others.

Since Theta is more biological than the other segments they are also an “experiment” as well. I would like to think that the segments all have their own type of jobs, and Theta is based in spying/information collecting. Theta mainly does exploring around Teyvat to find some sort of anything that interests them.

If Theta was playable they would be a very selfish DPS, most likely a cryo claymore. Their signature weapon would look like a giant pair of scissor s !

I plan to draw them out some more!!! AUUUSGHSHSHSH I LOVE THETA SM :33

Writer Questionnaire Tag

Thank you @willtheweaver for the tag!! Tagging @amandacanwrite @meerawrites @kaylinalexanderbooks and open tag!

What is your absolute all time favourite idea you’d ever had?

I think that every idea for a new story is the all time favorite…and then I think it’s the worst, then the best, and repeat. <- keeping this because yeah, same lmfao. Idk I am actually very proud of Icing Waved Off/the series I'm planning around it. Specifically, the way I've developed so many characters and created such a character-driven story that I can take in so many directions.

Is there a question you’ve been asked in the past that really stands out to you, and you still think about?

My best friend was beta reading a novel (that I've since abandoned) and asked me what the MMC's motivations were and I could not answer it. Since then, I've made sure to pay extra care and attention to fully fleshing out the characters and just getting to know them before and during the writing process.

What is your favorite part of being a writer? What parts can you take or leave?

Getting sucked into the worlds/stories I create. Being so excited about my writing that I can get lost in it. Feeling so empowered by what I write and how I write. I just love that it makes me feel alive.

What is your greatest motivation to write/create?

In part, the above answer. I write/create because it just... feels right. It feels like nothing else. Writing has also been an escape for me since I was a teen, so I turn to writing to help me mentally. And, I have a lot of damn good stories and ideas, and no one else is gonna write them.

What is the best piece of advise you’ve ever read or been given as a writer?

Write actively, not passively. This is kind of like "show don't tell" but a bit more/different. An active tone draws the reader in and really makes the story come to life, while a passive one is more bland and surface level - which is great for some people/some stories.

What do you wish you knew when you first started out writing?

That it's okay to not write for a while. Sometimes my stories need to simmer on the back burner, and that's okay. It doesn't make me any less of a writer.

What is your favourite story you’ve written to completion? Link it if you like and can!

There's a few fanfics I've written that I love, but I'm keeping that completely separate from here haha. I finished a novel in grade 11 I think? So I was about 16 or 17. It was the first one I finished, and while I have kind of abandoned it because it just wasn't that good, I am still very proud of younger me for doing that.

Which of your characters would you say has the most controversial mindset? Why do you say so, and how do you personally feel about their ideals?

Other than the straight up villains in my fantasy novels? Haha. In Icing Waved Off, there's a teammate named Liam Nox who's a bit of a prick. He's very opinionated, very defensive of what he likes, and pretty... "hockey bro"-like. He's pretty annoying ngl haha. I personally don't like him as a person - I find him arrogant and too "bro"-like for my liking, but he's fun to play with.

If you, when you first started writing, meet you now, what would younger you think?

First, she would ask why all my characters are gay now (poor little comphet Jo). But then I think she'd be amazed at just how much I (we? she?) have written since she started. She'd wonder how to achieve that - how to stay so in touch with her writing. I think she'd also be relieved. Relieved that the time and effort she put into writing wasn't a waste and that she (we? I?) found something that just feels so right.

[dr-d-of-team-blu]

Hello, Dr. Degenhardt! It’s nice to meet you!

I hope you don’t mind receiving a message from me, especially since I’ve contacted the RED team in the past. Embarrassingly (for someone who’s currently talking to trained mercenaries), I’m a bit of a pacifist, and tend to try and be fair to both sides of a conflict. Seeing RED jumping on you and your team’s posts to insult you—especially when some of you don’t often go out of your way to antagonize them—did feel a little sad to me, so I wanted to send you something nice!

I think your mask looks very lovely, I quite enjoy your bird aesthetic. I also completely understand your hesitance to remove it—sometimes, having to accustom people to one’s more unconventional parts over and over can be much more difficult than simply ‘masking’ them, if you’ll pardon the pun. However, as an asexual person myself, appearances don’t matter to me nearly as much as personality, and quite frankly, from what I’ve seen of you so far, you seem like a wonderful person to be around. Would I be incorrect in believing you to be a bit introspective, but rather thoughtful and kind when given the opportunity? I’ve also heard that you’re a bit lonely and haven’t much to do around the base. Would you appreciate some book or music recommendations?

Please forgive me if I seem a bit awkward. With the RED mercenaries, it’s a bit easier to know where I stand, since every single one of them (save Spy, and perhaps Pyro) is quite outgoing. You, on the other hand, seem much more like me, in that you keep to yourself somewhat—which gives us something in common, though not something that’s terribly easy to bond over, haha! I’m certainly not upset about this, just noting a fact.

(Also, I think that it’s perfectly valid of you not to be confrontational on the battlefield. There are multiple, equally functional strategies that can be used in fighting. While one Medic-strategy can be to stay alive by being a threat to everybody else, another can be to direct your teammates and serve as a ‘support’ to them (which is the class that a team’s medic is part of, is it not?) from behind the front lines. And both work well! If I wanted to protect a generator powering my house from sabotage, I could either cover it in spikes or lock it behind a reinforced barrier, both of which would prevent it from being harmed. I hope that makes sense…)

Anyhow, I hope you’re doing well and taking care of yourself, Doctor. And don’t forget, there’s no shame in knowing when to walk away from a fight, especially online! Better that you take care of your health for the battlefield than exhaust yourself sparring verbally with the REDs.

~ half-moon anon

You are very sweet! I have not be around much, prior to my finding of Mikhail's phone, so I do not recognise you from any prior correspondence.

You are correct that often it is not just about people finding me scary or unpleasant due to my scars, many times it is the constant questions that I want to avoid. I have not wanted to show my face to my team for this very reason, I do not want to feel like a freak or like something to be pitied. The mask is safer in that way, and so is the prosthesis.

I suppose I am more introverted, ja. I try to... Put myself out there so to speak, as most of the BLUs are equally as outgoing as the REDs, but it is not always easy. Messing with the REDs when I first arrived... It stressed me out after a while and I did not like it. I did not find it as fun as I thought I would.

Danke, for your kind words. They mean a lot to me.

[uenodivision]

As the sun was still shining brightly in the first day of November, there was yet another visitor stopping by at one flower shop in Ueno.

This time the visitor was a young man with pink fluffy hair and a tatsumaki headband.

“Pardon my intrusion~ Oh, ohayo☆ Happy birthday and glad to see you today, Heisha-san.”

Greeting the nun with a big hearty smile on his face, the boy walked up closer to the flower shelf where Shisuta was standing

“My name is Asahi from the Harumatsuya shop in Nara!  And I’ve come here today as the representative of my team! YuuYu was going to relay presents at other division so he sadly can't come today. Most importantly… We’ve got some presents for you as well!”

With such a jovial voice, he handed something over to the birthday lady.

“This one was a handmade bookmark from him. He told me he had found this four-leaf clover once during one of his time doing the club activity with his friends in the park, and that time he was kinda into the resin art too. So, he decided to make one himself.”

“Four-leaf clover doesn’t only mean someone a good luck. I heard that each of their leaves are said to stand for four things. The first leaf is for hope, the second is for faith, the next is for love, and therefore the last one is for luck. In my opinion, I really think that it would suit your liking! And here, let’s move to the next gift~”

Asahi opened his bag and picked one paper box out of it carefully. He looked so proud when he opened its lid to showed what’s inside to her.

“Proudly presented from my family store! This is the nerikiri set I made myself! After all, flower designs and such are my specialty! I bet it would go even better if eaten together with some hot green tea.”

“Lastly, these are from Saigo-san. Speaking about tea and he actually gives Heisha-san the teacups haha. They’re the product from his cousin who loves ceramics though. Pouring some tea in these and they will look like there is literally a fish swimming inside. Kinda having the wabi-sabi feelings to me, I think?”

As the nun looked at all of the items presented by the wagashi maker, a smile appeared on her face as she bowed respectfully to him.

"Thank you very much, Tomoharu-san," Shisuta said, still smiling. "I am truly grateful for these."

Feeling she needed to reciprocate the young man for his kindness, Shisuta turned around for a brief second and began pulling out an assortment of flowers before gently placing them in a vase full of water.

"Please, take these." Shisuta said, handing him a bouquet of Dahlias. "Dahlias are a very beautiful flower. Not only because of their appearance, but because they symbolize compassion and kindness, which is what you and your companions have shown today." Bowing once more, Shisuta bid the young pink-haired man a farewell before looking at the treasures he had left behind. Smiling at the bookmark, she tucked it away, making sure to use it later.

She was truly in awe of the teacups that Asahi's teammate had given her. As she bit into one of the wagashi left for her, she was a bit upset that she didn't have any tea to good with them. It would have been a good time to utilize Saigo-san's gift. But she promised herself she would definitely use them at her earliest connivence.

[kitausuret]

Just saying: it brings soo much joy seeing someone get excited by Wanda after the whole cinematic experience.

That was my first encounter with the character and it really did not give a good first impression. And it only got worse with how they treated her and her own actor's obliviousness on the character's background (I will never say 'her character', she simply does not deserve that kind of recognition from me - yes, I am spiteful).

I do not know much about her 616 storyline, nor midnight for that matter, but despite that complete lack of knowledge I enjoy seeing you post about her. I may have originally come here for the Venom stuff but really anything you decide to share is what I stay here for.

Anyways, hiding behind the anon mask, I wish you a good day!

Hi anon! Thank you for your kind words; Wanda really was one of the first characters I got into with Marvel, long long before I cared about anything arachnid-themed (unless it was Julia Carpenter, since she was one of Wanda's teammates, haha). I'm fortunate that I met her character via comics (thanks to my friend who dragged me to the LCS) so that got to be my first impression.

Wanda's an interesting character to try to get into, since she's so strongly tied to the Avengers. She didn't get a solo of any decent length until 2015... but I highly recommend checking out Scarlet Witch by James Robinson if you can. It's not perfect, but it's very good and it has a lot of nice art by different artists. It's a fun series!

A lot of people who like That™ version of the character seen in certain films and a mediocre television show will talk about "feats" and "power" and all that even in terms of the comics, but honestly I think all of that is a load of bull. Wanda's greatest moments have always been where she follows her heart, but also her head. She's a veteran Avenger, she's one of the most compassionate characters ever, she has had epic highs and some very low lows... but she always pulls through.

And when you get a good writer that really does her justice? Oh, that's just peak. That's the best.

(I also like when she just straight-up punches people - Avengers #186; Plot: Gruenwald, S. Grant, W: Michelinie, A: Byrne)

On the note of Midnight Suns, they kind of... tried? Like, it's hard to explain. It's not great, and I would prefer her hair to be several shades darker, but it could be worse, as far as adaptations go?

EDIT 8/4/2023: I previously criticized the game here for using Romanian for Wanda - this was a mistake on my part as it's been pointed out that she has spoken Romanian in the comics but it does not mean she is intended to be Romanian. I've also learned it's commonly spoken in the region Wanda is from. To my friend who pointed out my mistake, you have my thanks!

Anyways, I'm glad you've continued to stick around even as I've expanded beyond just Venom-posting. I confess, though, I've often thought about what it would be like to smash my two little interests here together... I think particularly in Midnight Suns-verse (mixed with a little 616, of course) Venom and Scarlet Witch could have an interesting conversation. (Let's be real, I'll probably write it.)

I also think about Poisoned!Scarlet Witch a lot. I think about the universe where she was Venom... what that must have been like... what their symbiosis was... many thoughts. I bet their joined form was awesome. Wanda has great style.

(Venomverse #3, #4, #5; Bunn, Coello - that last one is fine; the host and symbiote are both dead the second they get Poisoned 😔 Mania did them a favor.)

Anyways, thanks for stopping by! If you get a chance, check out @brw's Comic Scarlet Witch Week 2023! Life circumstances have kept me from participating thus far but every week is a great week to appreciate Wanda Maximoff as she was meant to be. 🥰

[ferperss]

Loved reading your lore so thank you for the tag!! @sportsthoughts

I spent waaaay too much time writing this but once I started I felt like I couldn’t stop lmao, so I’m applauding anyone that gets through it!

The story of how I ended up where I am today is a long and winding road lmao. But I think I should start by prefacing with the fact that hockey has been a part of my life since I was born essentially. There are pictures of me on a pair of skates at around age 2 when my dad first tried to teach me! Then I played consistently from age 6 to 14 but quit when they wanted me to leave the “girls” team and play with the women because I was intimidated haha. Besides playing myself I’ve also spent many hours with my dad on the couch watching Sweden play in any and all kinds of tournaments, worlds, Olympics you name it, and since he never really rooted for any other team in Sweden or outside of it I just kind of slowly fell into that same thing. I knew there was a hockey league overseas that a lot of our own players were shipped off to but I never really had any interest in rooting for a team that wasn’t team Sweden at the time.

In the winter of 2014, I was at the ripe age of 15 and I did not play hockey anymore nor did I care about any teams really, but two of my best friends at the time became OBSESSED with this one junior player and kept talking about him. This man was none other than Thee Mr Willy Nylander himself. This led to the three of us obsessing over him and we watched him play in the world juniors over our winter break. It got to the point of us picking fights with people on twitter that said he was a bad player and really anyone that said anything negative about our Swedish players hahaha. We had a group chat named after him and everything. We eventually lost interest and forgot about him but this story is important because it comes back later.

Flash forward to May 2023! Before I entered my hockey era again I had an eight month long absolutely crushing obsession with the TV show 9-1-1 that was airing on Fox at the time (ABC now thank god, I still keep track) that came to a screeching halt when the season 6 finale aired and I hated it. I swore up and down that I was never ever going to watch that show again and now that the one thing I had been so fixated on for so long was gone I did not know what to do with myself. Which sounds so dramatic but honestly sometimes I don’t know who I am if I have nothing to obsess over. So naturally I needed entertainment and as I looked up through the haze of firefighters and network drama I found that the 2023 IIHF World Championship in Tampere and Riga was on! And I had no choice! There was hockey to be watched and I sure did watch it. Now, it did not go too well for the Swedish team last year, which is okay. But one thing that happened was the constant debate on wether Willy Nylander was going to join in. His brother was there and his teammate Timothy Liljegren also joined in. But there was no word on Willy himself. And it was all they talked about. He obviously did not end up joining but all the talk had made me nostalgic. And naturally I had to revisit the old object of obsession and see how he was doing over the Atlantic and turns out he was doing quite well indeed. And because I am a sucker for team dynamics and narratives (who could ever believe I studied film for five years) I desperately clung onto the Toronto Maple Leafs like my life depended on it. What I didn’t know was that these were also transformative times, and once I’d gotten into the team and the organization, I was bewildered when Kyle Dubas all of a sudden was going to another team??? How could that be?? The Penguins?? And that’s when I found my way to the Pittsburgh Penguins, the power of Dubas’ cardigans and Sidney Crosby’s fat ass gripped me and now I split my time between my equally cursed teams like they’re my divorced parents. And here we are.

Naturally there are a lot of nuances left out of here, I’ve covered the key points but I think that there are probably so many reasons that it was the perfect time for me to get into hockey again and here we are almost a year later and there’s no going back now!! I’m stuck here forever. And I would not have it any other way <3

This is the end of ramblings and I’ll say if there’s anything I love more than hockey, it’s being dramatic, and also I didn’t spell check this at all so if it’s not perfect I’m sorry (I’d love to blame it on English not being my first language but it’s the only subject I’ve always had straight A’s in so it’s not really applicable it’s just me being lazy)

[leonawriter]

Low hanging fruit, but Akira and Akechi?

First impression

Akira: I did my best to go into the game with an open mind (though I'd already read a fic, and been aware of some art and stuff) so I guess my first impression was "quiet with hidden depths." Before I went through the game, I was one of those people who sometimes mistook shuake/akeshu art as soukoku.

Akechi: I already knew about him before going in, so I guess my first impression was "huh, interesting" and then at some point "I will literally fight for him, he's my kind of character" and then "[points at screen] it's HIM" and then "oooh, look at him go!" haha. I did have a (very short) period of being uncertain about him around the interrogation room, but. It was short.

Impression now

Akira: I can honestly say I never expected to like a protagonist as much as I do Akira. I love how I can enjoy most fandom takes on him (even if not all). Gay disaster. Thrillseeker and probably has some kind of Thing For Danger in general. Absolute sweetheart and best big brother figure. Has a Lot of Gender.

Akechi: omg he's just like me for real- no seriously. I see a lot of my own issues in him, just dialled up to eleven. I relate so hard. I love his tenacity and the way he goes "I'm done with letting myself be controlled." Also, he's Gay Disaster #1.

Favorite moment

Akira: It's hard to say? Off the top of my head, probably just "any moment where his actions are independent of the player." Stuff you can't control, because it shows he has a personality all of his own. More specifically... ok yeah I gotta go with "the world is going crazy, his cat is human, and Akira just keeps going "?" "!" "?!" at everything.

Akechi: Part of me wants to say "friends? teammates? to hell with that!" but it's not that. It's gotta actually be his speech/dialogue on 2/2. because the entire thing is saying "I will not allow myself to live a lie, I've done that, I've had it with it, I'm sick of it" and by god he's setting his boundaries. He's got this line in the sand and he's saying he needs his free will more than anything, and it's worth dying for. It just hit hard and is one of the things that's stuck so hard about him.

Idea for a story

HAHAHA. I have written SO MANY for these dumb kids, but I still have more.

Akira: Post-11/20 where he he accidentally keeps admitting he misses Akechi for whatever reasons come up. Which is more about Akira bonding and sharing stuff with his friends and teammates than it is Akechi, who'd mostly not be appearing in the fic.

Akechi: I have written two "Vampire Akechi" fics. I now have vague ideas for Werewolf Akechi. Every so often I also want to write something where he finds Mona when he ran away from home.

Unpopular opinion

Akira: Uh... probably that he'd actually go along with an accomplice route or willingly kill anyone, and that the Yaldy choice bad end isn't something I can easily see him doing. I see a lot of people liking these edgier ideas about him and I'm just... he's one angery boi, sure, and he might have thoughts and wonder about how things could go if he just went with his crush, or continued changing hearts like that, but. I don't think he'd do it.

Akechi: Where do I begin. I don't think either of his Personas are fake or manufactured, whether he got lab tested by Wakaba or not. I also don't think that he's trigger-happy about killing people, either; he sees it as a means to an end, but I don't think he ever wanted to be in this position, and he wound up just... getting used to it. On the flip side I also don't see him going "woe is me for I am a murderer and therefore monster" like... he knew what he was doing and if he was going to be like that in third sem or later then he likely wouldn't have got that far.

Favorite relationship

Akira: Not counting Akechi, I think I like seeing him hang out with Futaba the most? But also Ryuji and Sumire.

Akechi: Not counting Akira, it has to be a tie of Sumire and Futaba. Although I love watching him and Haru in the same room. The sparks flying (and him being intimidated by her) is fun both to read and to write. (I'd like to see more of him and the rest of the PT and also Sae in more than just roleswap/etc AUs too, though.)

Favorite headcanon

Akira: He arrives in Tokyo having internalised the idea from his home town and parents that he's supposed to grow up to get a good job, get married to a girl, have kids. He leaves Tokyo realising "oops I'm gay." (read: my playthrough has me see him as completely unhappy with the girls, only realising too late if he's committed himself. because of the sprites.)

Akechi: In any 'verse other than one that explicitly states he survived through other means (brought back via cognitive reasons like Morgana, or like in one of my recent fics) I like to believe that he survived the engine room through sheer persistence and a Goho-m, but stress and trauma and Call of Chaos (and maybe Maruki) made him forget those details.

Maybe it was low-hanging fruit but I take it anyway, so thanks for the ask~!
