[kaz-oooo]

So glad I’ve reached a point in my life where the only maths I know how to do is the most basic multiplication and figuring out the time dilation in DSMP limbo.

Anyway Ghostbur’s been in limbo for 83 years, 4 months and 13 days.

Work Description: Hi! I'm ready to write a one-shot Stucky or Stucky threesome (with Darcy Lewis, Peter Parker, or an original female character) fic for you. As a note, I'm recovering from an injury that affects my typing ability, so it would be best to start discussions about the auction fill in early January. Higher bids will result in higher word counts! $5 - (starting bid) 2000-3000 word fic $10 - up to 6,000 word fic $15 - up to 12,000 word fic, multi-chapters permitted! $20 - up to 20,000 word fic, multi chapters permitted! $25 - same as $20, plus matching artwork (I'm a novice artist though, so that's why it isn't the auction item itself.) $30+ - same as $25, but with multiple matching artworks, one of which can be anything in the story-you specify! Fic by no means needs to be porn-without-plot, but I'm only interested in writing fics rated E, so if you want explicit stuff, I'm your girl! I'll work with the winning bidder at multiple points to make sure they get what they want: 1. I'll communicate back and forth with you (Tumblr, email or Discord) and get a list of everything that you'd like to see (and not see) in the fic. Feel free to list as much as you like, in as much detail as you like, and be sure to rank how important which parts are. 2. Within 3 days of Step #1, I'll send over a detailed story outline for your approval. 3. Within 4 days of Step #2, I'll send over the first scene (1000-2000 word sample) of the fic for your approval. 4. Within a maximum of two weeks after your Step #3 approval, you will have your very own, custom, completed fic. It is free for you to keep private, translate, podfic, illustrate, or post as text on any social media site you like, so long as I am credited as the author. Bids over $25 include matching art, and therefore have a longer timeline. You will still have your finished fic within 2 weeks, finished art may take up to 1 month. (I will make any edits and changes to the story that you'd like, but only up until that last step #3 - i.e., once the first few pages are approved, then change requests can still be made, but will not be guaranteed.) Lastly, I genuinely enjoy writing on request, so when you fic is all is said and done, if you'd still like to stay in contact, then I would love to connect through Tumblr, Discord, etc. I'm super excited to make someone's vision come to life!

Y O U R   P E R S P E C T I V E

I could feel my heart thumping in my throat.

I was nervous.

But I was always nervous on my first day on the job.

I mean who isn't, right?

I've had several jobs before, some simple ones like waiting tables and such.

But never something significant.

I looked out of the window of the cab, watching the streets flash by.

Who would've thought that my first job out of college would be something so big?

Certainly not me.

When I had applied my resume to the vacancy the Big Hit Entertainment had put out, I'd never expected to actually get it. After all, I barely had any experience and I had just gotten out of college.

Nervously I played with my hair as I watched the sun slowly set, outside of the car window.

The job description had been vague, and during the job interview, the workers didn't give me much information about what it was exactly they wanted me to do.

All I knew was this: 1. It would be a 24/7 job. Meaning no time for friends or family. Not that I had any since I had immigrated to Korea. 2. The paycheck was enormous. If my calculations were correct, and I could keep doing this job for at least 5 years, saving up most of my salary (not that I would have time to spend it anyway), I would almost be settled for life. 3. Anything that I would experience should be kept secret. This had been very important to the bosses since they had mentioned it several times during my interview. I was not to talk to anyone outside my job about the job. Not even the bosses themselves. 4. I would get instructions from my clients about what it is that I should do exactly.

This last point had helped me a lot while trying to figure out what the hell it was they wanted from me. Apparently, I had several clients: I would have to work for or manage multiple people. Since Big Hit Entertainment was a company that managed many k-pop stars, I imagined it would be probably a new group that was about to debut or something.

They probably expected me to help them with their schedule or something, making sure they'd be on time for practices and whatnot.

But then, why would the clients be the ones to instruct me? Surely if this was the case, the bosses would instruct me, not the client?

'We're here,' the cab driver spoke. I blinked.

The cab had stopped in front of a large concrete entrance, that had guards and a barrier guarding and checking everyone that came in and out of the place.

'Oh,' I breathed. My heart pounded loudly.

'Do you need any help with your bags?' the cabbie offered politely.

'No need, thank you,' I thanked him. After all, I only had one suitcase.

I paid the cabbie and got my stuff out of the trunk.

The cab immediately drove off into the night.

I wasn't sure what to do. Nervously I walked up to one of the guards at the entrance.

'Erm, hello,' I started, my voice slightly shaking.

The guard didn't say anything.

'I'm y/n and I'm starting my new job today and I was told this was the address...' I said, my voice trailing away as the guard stared down at me unblinkingly.

I wasn't sure what next to say. I didn't even know what my job description was.

I looked at the space behind the gates. It reminded me a lot of a luxury hotel or apartment complex. The ones you would see in k-dramas where the CEOs would live.

Definitely not a place a group that still had to debut would live. They could never afford it. I could never afford it.

'Identification,' the guard said unexpectedly.

I quickly rummaged through my bag and pulled out my passport, giving it to him.

The guard inspected it carefully, before giving it back to me.

'Follow me,' he commanded, walking away with big steps.

I had to run to keep up with him. I had barely any time to look around properly.

There were large condos stacked upon one another. Separate buildings, all with large windows and luxurious-looking balconies and gardens.

This had to be a place where big celebrities lived.

'In here,' the guard said after a while, leading me into one of the large uniform buildings.

The more I saw of the place the more my thoughts were confirmed. This was NOT a place for a rookie idol group.

'This door,' the guard said suddenly when we were standing in front of a large wooden door. He abruptly turned around and walked away.

'Thanks,' I mumbled.

I stared at the high door.

Dear god, what had I gotten myself into?

I closed my eyes shut for a moment and took a deep breath.

Calm your mind

I pressed the doorbell.

'Who is it?' a male voice came from the little speaker

'Hi, I'm y/n. I'm here for the... job?' I said hesitantly, not knowing what else to call it.

The door gave a buzz and I pushed it to open. It was a very heavy door so it took some effort because I was using one hand to hold my suitcase.

With my backside first I entered the hallway, closing the door behind me.

I turned around and my heart skipped a beat.

A group of young men was standing in the hallway, looking at me with curiosity and interest.

I quickly bowed deeply at them.

'Good evening, my name is y/n' I reintroduced myself.

I straightened my back and saw all of them smirk at each other.

A quick count told me there were seven of them. Seven men from, what I guessed, my age. All with different hair colors and postures.

And all very, very handsome...

I nervously smiled at them as they exchanged peculiar looks with each other.

'You'll do just fine,' the tallest man said. He winked at me and grinned.

I could feel my cheeks getting hot.

Oh, dear...

February 24th 2017

Steve left for work at 0530. He woke me up today which was rubbish as I struggled to get back to sleep. I eventually did, around 0700. I then slept through my alarm at 0900 to 1015. I’m awful when I go back to sleep because I sleep for longer than I would’ve done if I slept straight through. That’s why I also shouldn’t nap. My naps aren’t 30 minutes long, they’re 4 hours long. Some people consider that a sleep. I don’t.

Everyone was leaving the room as I got up. I went down to breakfast. Again, not that hungry. I only had Weetabix. Breakfast is rubbish when you’re lonely. I felt slightly better about being on my own though, yesterday was just a bit of a shock to the system. I got back to the room and it was empty. The room is never empty so it was nice just to potter about knowing nobody was watching me. I got into the shower where I experienced the worst palpitations I’ve had in a long while. Probably the worst in the last couple of years actually. The hospital said I have an extra electric pulse. They wanted to put me on ‘Beat Blockers’ but that means being on medication for the rest of my life. My mum suggested that I say no. I was roughly 19 when they suggested it and Mum didn’t think I should spend the next 70 years on medication. They weren’t really going to help either. It passed after about 3 minutes.  

I sat on my bed and chilled for a minute. I managed to FaceTime Tom as he is basically nocturnal. Tom is my gay best friend. I have to say that he is my gay best friend otherwise people think I’m cheating on Steve. Tom and I are like a married couple. We argue, fight and call each other names but it’s all love. Lots of love. We’ve known each other for years now. He calls himself “her gay best friend”. He loves it.

It got to roughly 1200 when I really needed to give myself a kick up the bum. It didn’t help that it was cloudy outside. I went down to reception to ask if there were any jobs going. Luckily, when you stay at hostels, you can apply to work for them. You don’t get paid but you get free accommodation. Steve and I are paying $466 a week for the hostel. By doing 15 hours a week, I could bring that down to $233. We could pay less too if we moved rooms. You get cheaper rooms by adding more people and taking away the bathroom. We’re happy where we are though. I couldn’t imagine sharing a room with 14 people for the sake of a couple of dollars a night. I also couldn’t imagine not having a toilet/shower in my room. Where do people get changed? There aren’t changing rooms. Plus there’s only 2 showers and 1 toilet between the rest of the rooms on the floor. So, 50 people? No thank you.  Reception will let me know when there are vacancies. They told me one girl is leaving soon so it wouldn’t be long. 

I had sorted my CV’s out yesterday so they were ready to just be handed out. Unfortunately, this took a lot longer than I had anticipated. Reason being - I’m a tart. I was too scared to walk into places and ask to leave my CV there. I’ve never had to do it before and my social anxiety was through the roof. I walked past a restaurant 6 times and sat on a wall before deciding that I couldn’t do it. It was really stressful. I went to another restaurant and looked at the menu outside for a good 3 minutes. I forced myself in and handed it to a member of bar staff. It was fine. Why was I panicking so much? I panicked a whole lot more as I continued. I walked to the Holiday Inn where I planned on handing it in. Nope - couldn’t do it. I walked in and straight back out. What is wrong with me? I continued my walk round to the DeVere hotel where I said was going to be the first place I handed my CV into. I worked in a DeVere at home for 3-4 years so it was a perfect place to start. I walked past it twice before forcing myself in. I did it. 2 CV’s in about 30 minutes. All within a 5-10 minute vicinity. As I was walking back towards the hostel, I past another restaurant/pub/bar place where Steve and I went into once. I walked in to hand my CV and walked out again. I must’ve looked like a complete and utter weirdo. I went back inside and handed my CV in. That was enough for one day. 3 CV’s I managed to hand in before feeling exhausted with anxiety. I will apply online. Much easier.

It was only 1400 when I was finished being a tart and I couldn’t sit in the room doing nothing… I jumped onto the train for 2 stops to Town Hall where all the main shops are. I only wanted to go into Starbucks to apply for more jobs online. I ordered a skinny latte and sat down. I sat on a long booth with multiple tables alongside each other. There was a man next to me working away. In Starbucks, they ask for your name to put on the drink. I’m sure you’re aware - who hasn’t been to Starbucks? Any who, my cup was next to this man’s cup. Before I know it, I’m crying. My cup said “Charlie” and the man’s cup said “Alan”. For those of you that don’t know, that’s my Dad’s name. I sat there and imagined being next to my dad. I must’ve looked like the world’s most unstable person today. How embarrassing. Also, in case you hadn’t realised, I’m the most emotional person in the world. I cry at anything. Everything, in fact. My phone started to ring as I tried to man up. It was an Australian number. I have about 5 missed calls from numbers that I don’t know because I’m too scared to answer them. I did manage to answer before it rang off and lucky I did too. An interview from my brave CV handout today. 1/3 contacted me. Good odds if you ask me. It was the restaurant/pub/bar place that I hadn’t even planned on handing it in to. Tuesday at 1100. Fingers crossed. I left Starbucks. No more emotions please. 

I walked around the shops - Topshop, Zara etc to keep myself occupied. Why does the time go so fast when you’re shopping? Before I knew it, it was 1530. Steve finishes at 1530 so I had to get myself back to the hostel. I wanted to hear about his day. I also wanted to travel back just before rush hour. I got onto the train for the 2 stops and got back to the room about 1600. Steve got in at 1630 as he has slightly further to travel. His day was pretty much the same as yesterday. He did remember his fork and water though. He told me straight away to get ready as he was taking me out. He wanted to treat me as I was feeling low and because he got a job.

We both got showered and ready to go out. It was about 1730 when we left. We got on the train to Martin Place (one stop) and then a bus down to Circular Quay. Circular Quay is where the Harbour Bridge and Opera House is as I’ve mentioned before. We walked along the front for a while before going into a restaurant. I was lovely. We shared a bottle of Rioja and had 2 courses. Starter was a chicken and sweetcorn soup. Sounds quite disgusting (to me) but it was amazing. Steve said it was the best soup he had ever eaten. I had steak for dinner and Steven had the “Challenger Burger”. By the way, he didn’t manage it all. Eyes bigger than belly comes to mind…

We sat at the table after dinner for quite some time finishing off the wine and talking. For the first time ever, I heard Steve say that he loves his mum. He literally said “I love my Mum”. I’ve never heard Steve say anything like that before. Steve isn’t open with his feelings whatsoever, about anything. His mum always tells him that she loves him but he hasn’t ever said it back. It was nice to hear. Steve calls himself a ‘Nanny’s boy’ though. He adores his grandparents. He could talk about them for hours. I wish my grandparents were around long enough for me to have a relationship like that with them. I tell Steve how lucky he is all the time. They treat me all the same though, they’re wonderful. We planned on going bar hopping through the night but we were too full up to even move. If I’m honest, I just wanted to get into my pyjamas. There’s no better feeling than getting into your pyjamas, dressing gown and slippers with a cup of tea. God I miss that. I still haven’t had a cup of tea since I’ve been here. We left Circular Quay and got the train home. We went onto the laptop to try and plan our year. We have no plans set in stone but rough ideas on what we want to see. I think it’s something similar to - Sydney until April/May time, Queensland somewhere for farm work May, June, July time. Then travel down from Cairns to Brisbane doing the East Coast through August. Maybe. Then Brisbane, Melbourne and/or Perth for the next few months. We will be spending Christmas and New Year’s Eve in Sydney. The plan is to be on a private party boat on the harbour for New Year’s Eve. Steve would like to see Alice Springs but I’m not sure we will get time too. He also wants to see Tasmania, New Zealand and Fiji. Luckily, he realises we’re not made of money. We have a few places to play around with though.

It got to 2300 and Steve was starting to fall asleep. I was too but I had no excuse to be other than I’m lazy and I can sleep for England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, as I’ve also mentioned before. It’s now 0000 and people are just going out. Steve and I are yet to go ‘out out’ properly but there’s plenty of time to do so.

At least, I thought there was. Until I realised today, we are almost done with one month out of twelve.

1/12. That’ll make you happy Dad.
