#so so much i remembee

[placentafluid]

riding home from the beach exhausted and sunburnt and full of grapes and sand and my moms playlist was insane. Why were we listening to daughtry, carrie underwood, switchfoot, the fray, celine dion, green day, ONE song from moulin rouge, U2, evanescence, and the goo goo dolls at 4 in the afternoon on a thursday. she was listening to divorced dad rock before any of you ever were

deciding (and realizing based on the way i write and think abt it) that no matter what bellum is not making it out of swabbie rank. he’s put at the lowest rank of whatever hierarchy linebeck decides to adhere to no matter what, no matter the au. bellum can be practically a stowaway or romantically involved with the captain but he is swabbie while link made it to first mate in a handful of months and while being like twelve. bellum gets the mop. to humble him.

maybe it's the corner i've curated, maybe it's a sign of time changing opinions, but i'm so happy that liking clara is not as contentious as it used to be. i always remember her as a very divisive figure, so it's probably the former but i'm just glad that clara oswald gets just the tiniest bit of love she deserves

[butcharyastark]

I LOVE IB SO MUCH

[rayofmisfortune]

Throwing this ask over for if you ever want to ramble about Bendy ✨/nf (we are getting fed lately, 3 more games??? A movie??? Ink demon at a rave??? What???)

BENDY RAMBLE PERMISSION? OH HECK YEA!!

We are SO getting fed! I can't wait for what the games have in store for us. With The Cage supposed to release some time this year ANS THE MOVIE??? OH DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THAT!

I love the Bendy series to bits. Like actually

I've been keeping up with it since chapter 3 of BATIM- haven't read any of the books sadly but that can be excused right???

ANYWAY

The Cage is supposed to be a look behind the scenes at what happened on the other side of things while Audrey was busy explaining the concept of personal space to Wilson, if I remembee right? Also supposed to be darker and gorrier SUPER EXCITED FOR THAT

Then... in Secrets of the Machine we get teasers for B3ndy and Bendy Silent Town...

I hope B3ndy's gonna pick up on where BATDR left off, Gent taking away the Ink Machine to GOD KNOWS WHERE??? With Bendy now being out in the real world... it begs the question of who the role of big bad and smiling (traumatized, very much traumatized) will fall on... As for who we may play as.... maybe it could be this Riley Wells (hope I got the surname right) character we found out about in Secrets of the Machine? They ended up being a GENT employee so it's not completely out the question? They were employed at Joey Drew Studios before but- got fired because their ideas were too grotesque and dark for Joey's liking (EXCUSE THEM for having trauma you entrepreneur a-hole).

As for Bendy Silent Town... I feel like that game may be a look at mayhaps the genre of Bendy cartoons Riley had scripted? As I said, their ideas were dark. And what is Silent Town? A complete turn to the left at what Bendy games are. Unsure if the hand in the teaser image is Bendy's but- the char has a revolver named Alice FJFJ does that say anything? I dunno! Fjfjfj Getting to shoot cartoon bad guys in a cartoon tho? Aw heck yea! I suck at shooters but I'm willing to try my hand at one if it's Bendy

This is getting long lmfao

AH I haven't realized, but Secrets of the Machine came out on 4/14 (cuz- not american, use a different date format heh) which is the last loop that took place before Wilson or Audrey right? Some significance there

Oml I'm gonna fall into rambling about Bendy and the Ink Demon aren't I?

When you break all the cutouts in Secrets of the Machine, you get instakilled by the Ink Demon. Which. Deserved. I ended up doing that a lot cuz I didn't KNOW what I was supposed to do??? And destroying the cutouts was the quickest way out nfjfjc sorry Benders I promise it wasn't personal.

Anywho- yea it's been over a year YET I'M STILL NOT OVER HOW THE INK DEMON LITERALLY HAD BEEN TORTURED BY THE KEEPERS??? Like- YOU CAN'T JUST THROW THAT AT ME AND NOT EXPECT ME TO WEEP LIKE A BABY- My man's gone through literal hell even before he's been carelessly thrown into the machine "because he was imperfect" my ass, I bet the worst he ever did while in the Real world was walk around and be curious about everything while the only thing decisively threatening about him was his appearance... WHICH ALSO he had nothing to do with??? That's all on Joey and GENT for fucking up and only looking at the outside and not the inside. Is it obvious how much I need this guy to have a happy life?? He has a chance for that with Audrey now which I'm honestly so damn glad for nfnfnc Poor guy had been forced to follow a predetermined script where he was cast as the villain... tbf.. wouldn't anyone end up embracing that role when they've had to go through it for hundreds of loops?? I'd grow tired of trying to change anything as well.

Can... can you imagine? A little scene with Audrey and Bendy in B3ndy where they're just hanging out with eachother in Audrey's apartment.... PLEASE

Ah this got long hehe nfnfjfb

ALSO still not over Henry. My favorite father figure. Pls be a dad to them I beg

I STILL DUNNO WHAT THE RAVE IS ABT 😭😭 Haven't seen anything abt it YET- BUT AYYYYY

AND OML YEA THE MOVIE PLEASE GIB SOME BEFORE THE INK WORLD SNIPPETS PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE?? Could you imagine? Just- getting to see how the studio was before it all went to hell??? I- GETTING TO SEE THE PROGRESS ON THE INK MACHINE??? MAYBE EVEN BENDY'S CREATION????? And and oml SAMMY before he went "My Lord, My Saviour, coocoo in the head" THE VAST WORLD OF POSSIBILITIES

[loopspoop]

The characters color scheme in lupin the 3rd have changed a lot throughout the years and now im wondering if theres a deeper reasoning behind it or simply an aesthetic choice. Was wondering this today and wasnt sure where to ask so i figured id ask a lupin fan who might remembee things about the franchise bettee than me

To be so so fair I haven’t ever thought about it (and I’m still on part 3 so I haven’t seen all of it). Honestly though? I think it’s probably just aesthetic but I could be wrong? When I go for AU choices that’s part of what I do but I also make it related to the overall theme of the AU. However, early seasons of Lupin don’t have much of a plot so I don’t know if the jacket colors really matter there. In short…I have no idea and now I’m curious too-

[anotheroneofthegaysharks]

i remembee thunder bird and mime bomb, theyre so silly. IM SO GLAD YOURE STILL ALIVE!!!! hi btw im the person from around two or so years ago who reblogged your art of them like. 10 times. i was abusing that fast reblog button. YOU OBV DONT HAVE TO ANSWER THIS, IM JUST GLAD YOURE STILL ON TUMBLR MAN 🔥🔥🔥

Sorry for not posting more Thunderbird and Mime Bomb, my interests have been ALL over the place and I am going EVERYWHERE

Thank you so much for the ask! What a lovely thing to wake up to!

[pm-00]

I'll always get emotional about the QSMP because I remember being seven in my classroom and cutting paper to make "papel picado" as an art project for Día de Muertos, years later I got to talk about that tradition with people all over the world. I also remembee being eight and reading about Carnivals all over the world and being amazed at every description and picture from the Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro and today I get to listen directly from Brazilians and talk about this festivity, learning so much; these are only some of my personal examples. The QSMP continues to shown how wonderful cultural exchanges and appreciation can be, makes me fucking furious seeing people in the fandom having to face so much xenophobia and racism.

[qzse-rtv]

It was so weird seeing that dude i didnt see since first year of uni in 2019/2020

We wouldnt have recognized each other in the streets, we both agreed we were weird geeks back then and changed a a lot lol, tho it's not surprising, he's still kinda a weirdo but in a cool way, sometimes military is annoying bc we dont all have the same references, talked about stuff i mostly remembered bc i am mentally ill and like to remember specific stuff, but also i dont remembee much from uni years...

Sent a fucking email to the other girl that used to hang around with us, i have no idea where she went we'll see if she even gets it or replies... Also reminded me of some other people ive talked to or hanged out with in college... Thats to say not too many

I really hate college lol i was deoressive for 2 years, covid hit at the same time, 0 friends everything going to shit lol, it sucked ass and i missed my friends from highschool

Weekly Roundup 9th June - 30th June

So, im a little behind with weekly round up as im sure you can see. A broken wrist and RL really has been kicking my arse. Thankfully my wrist ismuch better and Rl seems to have calmsed down somewhat so im back. Between the 9-30th June I uploaded 19,849 words (thats not all I wrote but I didnt keep track lol) and as always I will put 6 recs and mine under the read more.

So, as always, recs first: The Best of You and Me - giddytf2 - The Witcher (Geralt/Jaskier, I love it hwen they are both idiots tbh)

Summary: In which Jaskier discovers that he's mysteriously pregnant but wants the baby, Geralt finally learns to use his words after twenty years, Yennefer is so done with two idiots in love and their communication problems, and Ciri gains a new family.

A Dream or Something More - amloveabledeathmo - The Hobbit (Jackson Movies)(Bilbo/Thorin, Quest retelling, The Rivendell scene is just so precious)

Summary: Bilbo gets a second chance, but how long is it before he realizes it. He does things to make himself happy and treats the dwarves like the lovely family they are. Also setting Bilbo a bit younger here not middle aged but about 40ish so like 10 or so years earlier to give him more time with his dwarves.

My Ego Dies - Conkers - The Hobbit (Jackson Movies) @conkers-thecosy (Bilbo/Thorin, this is just all around adorable)

Summary: What if Frodo Baggins visited Erebor ten years after Bilbo returned to the Shire, and met with Thorin Oakenshield.

White lies - ylc - The Witcher (TV) (Geralt/Jaskier, Fake/pretend relationships are just so much fun) Summary: In Jaskier’s defense, he hadn’t actually believed Geralt would come looking for him eventually, so he figured that telling his mother that the Witcher was the father of the child he was carrying would be a completely harmless lie. And then of course Geralt had walked back into his life and things got… complicated.

Moonlight Feathers - Akikofuma - Wiedźmin | The Witcher (Geralt/Jaskier, both are griffins and its so bloody cute)

Summary: Due to his coloring, Geralt will never have a family of his own, he's sure of it; until he meets Jaskier.

Learning how to be free - tashaxxxxxx - Wiedźmin | The Witcher (Geralt/Jaskier, A/b/o, please mind the tags but this is so beautifully done)

Summary: Jaskier is a badly beaten omega belonging to King Vizimir with little hope for the future. He had even less hope when he’s told he’s going to be given away to the Witchers, bloodthirsty beasts, as assurance that Redania will keep to the peace treaty.

Jaskier has little hope of surviving the next few days, let alone of finding freedom and love.

And, as always, my fics. I have 6 fics to share with you for this time period <3

Ereborian Pride (Bilbo/Thorin and the final of my Baggin-shieldtober series that took me 9 months lol. Once again, thank you @smolestboop for the amazing prompts. Summary: On the afternoon of Kili's 18th birthday, Thorin and the rest of the company and their families) remembeed their past lives. Their quest, living in a thriving Erebor.

Thorin remembered loving and losing Bilbo. 4 year later there still hasn't been any word from their burglar. Thorin needs to find the other half of his heart.

Count, Count, Count before you Cry: Count, Count, Count before I Die (Bilbo/Thorin, written for @flashfictionfridayofficial prompt count the days, very sad, please read the tags)

Summary: Thorin and the dwarves are Gold sick and they have NOT forgiven Bilbo his betrayal

A pair of scarlet rain boots (Geralt/Jaskier, My very first Witcher fic that I think is one of my fav things I've written)

Summary: Jaskier passed away a long time ago. The only human in a family of non-humans.

Cirilla has just had her first child and she wishes with all her heart her only human parent was here. Of course, he loved her so much he has never left her.

My brothers, my boys, my twins (Horry Potter, its Percy and George, gen fic for the @hp-abandonshipfest, its also part of my FireSeeker (Percy/Viktor) Series)

Summary: Percy was unintentionally parentified at a young age. He was tasked with being an extra parent to the twins. Now, having dumped his boyfriend, the night before the twins 22nd Birthday, the first birthday without Fred, he finds himself with George and Harry. Reminiscing about the boys he all but helped raised. His twins, and one is missing forever-more.

For the Abandon ship fest, prompt 67: Pre canon, Percy being the one who mostly watches the twins.

Dorcas the Orca, The Maruaders and a jail cell (A marauuders gen crack fic for a wonderful friend of mine)

Summary: Sirius, James and Remus are put in a jail cell.

As annoying as it is, Remus would have dealt with it, but theres an orca in the corner of the cell somehow...

If I sing it loud and clear, will you finally hear? (Geralt/Jaskier, for the @flashfictionfridayofficial prompt - House of cards)

Summary: Jaskier has a new song and is as subtle as a drunken Lambert.

If Geralt doesnt see Jaskier's feelings for him now, well theres no hope for him.

Beyond the Bell's Chimes | Part 58

A decade has passed.

The sound of the pouring rain outside and the inaudible chatter of customers in the background felt like home as she stared at the slow spinning of the brown bubble on her coffee.  Some people were dismayed about the gloomy weather but a few of them in that cafe were blissful as they could give themselves a break from their hustles outside.

Jiwoo, just like the others around her, was taking her time to take in a breather from work just by staring at the busy street under the pouring rain. With a cup of joe sitting on the golden brown mahogany table in front of her, she indulged herself in a mini photoshoot of the subject: the lone coffee cup.

Satisfied with the shots, Jiwoo had the feeling to snap a photo of herself sitting on the gray cushioned couch. Tilting her phone to a certain angle to hide her unflattering aspects, she get to see a beautiful her. She was proud as she checked her photos until she heard the music played all over the place.

She could not help but feel giddy about the song. It has been years since she heard that song. She read in a post back that there are things in this world that unlocks a person's core memories whether it is a smell, taste, sound, look, feel, and hear, with a single thing, she began to remember all the feelings she had when she was younger.

She began to wonder all the what-ifs and all the things she could have done in the past with the wisdom and knowledge she has now. Will she be able to experience those things still? Or everything will change and be forgotten?

Jiwoo woke up from a light tap on her shoulder. It was the server at the cafe. She didn't notice that she fell asleep after thinking so much, what's surprising was that she had her coffee not too long ago. She looked outside and the rain has already ceased. She thanked the server and even gave her a tip before she stood from her seat.

"Leaving so soon?" Her uncle Wooseok was sitting on the other table, looking as handsome as he did during his prime. She smiled and greeted him with a hug. "You could have given me a call if you're out here spending time alone.." He said.

"I'll make sure to do that next time." Jiwoo smiled. "This cafe somehow reminds me of the old one I used to work at." She commented.

"Well, there are things we have to keep and things we have to let go. It was a great place to be honest," Wooseok sighed, remembeeing the good old days. He quietly looked at Jiwoo with fondness the same way he would look at her when she was little. Wooseok's a bachelor still yet he would always ser Jiwoo as his own no matter what. "Have you visited your mom?"

"I actually plan to spend the weekend at home, for Woojae's birthday." She smiled. "You must be there. You really have to be there." She said holding her uncle's hand.

"Alright. I will be there," He chuckled. Jiwoo gave him a big tight hug before she left the cafe. Her uncle Wooseok had given up the cafe for commercial property reasons but he was able to pull himself back by moving it to another location and successfully constructing a couple more branches in the city.

Jiwoo's parents were very much healthy and happy now that her father has retired from work, they were able to purchase a piece of land in his hometown where he's grow vegetables for the local market. Woojae had grown into a wonderful high school student in Segye High School. He was still the sweet, thoughtful kid that Jiwoo always loved.

. . . .

It was spring day in the year 2023. Jiwoo received an invitation from the school's president about  the high school homecoming of all graduates from Segye High School. A mixed of excitement, anxiousness and curiousity dwelled in her mind as she read the details and immediately confirmed her attendance. She began to wonder how her friends are now. It has been so long since they last met. They were together for a year after graduation but university life had taken a toll on each of them until they no longer meet. It was like an untold goodbye for Jiwoo, who remained still for her friends to come back anytime, until she too had to leave.

"Noona," Her train of thoughts were cut when Woojae knocked on her door. "Dinner's ready,"

"I'll be there," She replied and closed her computer. She then followed Woojae downstairs. Woojae had prepared bibimbap, her favorite for dinner. "Wow, looks good.."

"Well, I have to make it because you seemed down these days. Is everything okay?" He asked. Jiwoo still couldn't accept the fact that Woojae had become a teenager that was so thoughtfu and not rebellious. He had been so good in taking care of her despite being young.

"Hmm, I went to uncle's cafe.." She said while stuffing her mouth with food. "And it somehow reminded me about my friends back then.."

Woojae sighed, "Don't tell me you miss them?"

"Of course I do," Jiwoo replied. "You will get there when you grow old.."

"You're not that old, noona." He replied. "It's just that… every time you think about them, you get sad.. Especially when you remember Euns—" He stopped half way realizing that he should not mention the man who became his sister's world but disappeared. "Dad wanted us to sell this house and move to a better apartment.." He changed the topic.

"What's wrong with this house?" She asked. "It's well maintained and could need a little renovation,"

"Dad wants us to find a better place, noona." He tried to explain it to his sister without telling her that she should move on.

"Hmm, I'll stay here Woojae. If dad needs money, I can give him. I am doing well at my job." She assured her younger brother. "I've made a couple of investments too so we don't really need to sell this house.."

"Noona, I want you to be happy. I can take care of myself here…" Woojae began to cry. He watched his sister sacrificed her adolescent life working to the bones when their dad got into an accident. Her savings in high school which was supposed to be for her college fees were all spent for the medical fees for her dad until he recovered. She did a lot of odd jobs and barely slept. She barely had time for herself that made her lose the person she cherished. "Noona, we are okay now. You really should be living for yourself, not for us.."

. . . .

Jiwoo works as an art and humanities assistant professor in Sejong University. She is still doing her doctorate degree that is why she was busy as hell. Her job was good and the students were all nice. Despite working there for three years, she hasn't met any familiar faces at all. She was having lunch with her coworkers when her phone rang, reminding her about the reunion that they will have later in the evening. She almost forgot about it that it shocked her. She hasn't prepared anything, not even a dress to wear. The reunion will be held in Segye High School's gymnasium, plus one of the elite catering services will be managing the food and decorations. She wondered who planned all of this to be extravagant. She thought that having two hours of preparation wont be enough so she finished her meal quickly and went to see her boss, asking permission if she could leave work early today.

Jiwoo was one of the favorite professors in Sejong University for she made things easier and conclusive not only for teachers but for their students too. So her boss let her go early.

She immediately went to one of the upscale fashion stores in the city and began to go treasure hunting with the best set of clothes. Being an art major, Jiwoo had learned the basics in mix and matching clothes, plus she had worked as an assistant fashion coordinator in one of the famous magazines for internship. Despite being quiet and incredibly introvert, Jiwoo had gone up from where she was. She learned a lot of things on how to prepare for a reunion. She has to make an impact at least and be remembered.

She then went to the salon to have her long hair get fixed. She had a gorgeous black hair that reached her waist but had problems managing it since she was so busy. She decided to have it cut a few inches down her shoulders and had it done for later's event. She also requested to have a full glam make up look that would match her outfit. She had all the inspirations for her makeup look on her phone.

She decided to book a hotel room for the night just to give herself some space and privacy as she prepared herself for the night. She remained still in front of the mirror, fixing her hair as she kept giving herself affirmations. She felt so anxious that she just wanted to curl on the bed. She has no idea who will be there and she felt embarrassed to even see them.

She felt embarrassed to see Eunseok.

She clearly remembered that night when things were to hard on her. Her dad getting hospitalized, her finances dropping, and her mind was falling apart. She didn't know where to start again and she was tired of seeing herself being taken care of Eunseok. She had no idea that time if her life's difficulty will just be temporary or not and Eunseok who loved her so much wanted to help her out, but she refused. She felt small and ashamed in front of him so she decided to break up with him, and pushed him away. After that, she never saw him again.

A tear fell from her eye as she remembered the pain that she caused him as if it was just yesterday. If she were to ask, Jiwoo still loves him. She never dated anyone except for him. If only she could turn back time, she would have hold on to him and face all the challenges in life with him and never leave him alone. If only she could.

. . . .

The Segye High School was fully lit with cars filling the parking spaces, and the gymnasium was in full blast of music and people dancing. It was like a school festival back in the old days. People circling, laughing and sharing life's journeys in a happy setting.

Anton and Suyoung arrived in the venue, with Suyoung linking arms with her cousin. The crowd's attention were at them seeing one of the world-class cellist Anton Lee was walking with Suyoung. They were spotted by Sohee who was talking with Hanbin and Minseul, who recently got married. People thought Sohee and Suyoung broke up after high school, but the two were so in love with each other that they got married right after finishing their degrees.

"I thought you two aren't together.." Hanbin spoke as he saw Sohee giving Suyoung a kiss on her lips.

"We kinda remained lowkey and kept everything for ourselves." Suyoung explained. "Our wedding isn't grand. Just a few friends and families.."

"So, Jiwoo knew?" Minseul asked. "I haven't seen her in ages." She said.

"We haven't heard from her for a long time," Anton replied. There was sadness in his tone. For Anton, he loved Jiwoo so much that it affected him a lot when she stopped messaging him. He did not know what happened. He couldn't even go to her place because she wasn't there. She disappeared without a trace.

"Oh my god, is she—" Minseul thought for the worse but Suyoung immediately stopped her. "What about Eunseok?"

"Hmm, they broke up? I am not sure. Haven't heard of him in years." Suyoung said.

"Well, I can sense the sadness here. We all miss each other but it is not yet the end of time…" Sohee said as he tried to comfort them. "Anton, can you keep Suyoung company here? You can sit in that table.." He ushered them. "I have to meet Seunghan and Wonbin,"

"Oh my gosh! Their coming??" Suyoung gasped.

. . . .

"I'm not sure if Ji's phone number is still the same. I haven't really seen her for such a long time. Ever since her dad got into an accident she had been so busy trying to make ends meet. I couldn't even have time to check on her because it was my finals…" Seunghan explained as he was walking with Wonbin to the gymnasium. Wonbin had just arrived from New York, all dressed in black with his hair reaching his shoulders and a thin rimmed specs that completed his look for the evening. Seunghan on the other hand worked as a general manager in a huge food company. "I am actually worried not seeing her,"

Wonbin stopped, "Don't you think she will hate us?" He asked turning to Seunghan who immediately shook his head sideways. "That's Jiwoo. If we are worried about it, how much do you think she will do? I mean, I wouldn't miss this opportunity if I were in her shoes. And I.. I wouldn't miss this opportunity too. So, she'll be fine. I am sure she will be here.." Wonbin assured.

"Wonbin! Seunghan!"

The two men turned their heads to see Sohee waving at them. Their faces lit up and instantly forgot that they were not teenagers anymore and ran to each other hugging.

"What the hell! How come you didn't invite us to your wedding?" Seunghan asked as he was ruffling Sohee's hair.

"Whoa, easy with the hair! My wife took hours to fix that." Sohee chuckled, pulling away from his friends's hands. "Anton and Suyoung are inside. Did you know Minseul and Hanbin got married too??"

"Whoa! Really?" Wonbin asked, eyes widened in shock. He remembered the time Minseul pretended to flirt with him when they were younger. "Wow, sure time flies fast." He laughed.

"I am so glad you came here," Sohee sighed and ushered his friends to go inside.

. . . .

Sungchan and Miyoung broke up after high school. Sungchan decided to take a break for a year while Miyoung pursued her studies but they were great friends. However, Miyoung found new love and was already engaged while Sungchan remained single. He was waiting for Shotaro at the school front gate. Hr became the closest to Shotaro as he felt like they were in the same level and Shotaro had been the best friend he had during the trial times. His smile appeared when he saw Shotaro riding his motorcyle. He stopped and had Sungchan hopped on before driving inside the school.

"I heard everyone's there. Eunseok's not really coming?" Shotaro asked and only received a shrug from the latter. "Well, I am in charge of the RSVP and Jiwoo confirmed her attendance. You better tell him that she's coming. I am sure your friend has been waiting for her.."

. . . .

Eunseok was inside his car stranded in the traffic along the main road. He had an appointment at 7 at the Hyatt Hotel. It wasn't important but it was one of the blind dates his mom set up for him. He was actually getting tired of meeting different girls every month. He was checking rubbing his temples to ease his headache from the stagnant flow of the road when his phone rang.

It was Sungchan calling about the reunion.

"Hey, I have an appointment. I don't think I can—"  He stopped when he heard Sungchan's news.

"Everyone is here." Sungchan said from the other line. "I mean, everyone will be here. Shotaro confirmed the RSVP."

Eunseok's heart began to race when his thoughts have started to think about Jiwoo, seeing her again. "Wait… Is she there?"

"Well, you have to come here and see.." Sungchan replied and immediately ended the call.  Eunseok was left dumbfounded, not knowing what to do. Are they pulling a prank on him? If they do, this isn't a good prank at all. He began to think a lot of possibility that Jiwoo might be there. He didn't want to miss this opportunity, he didn't know when will he see her again.

"Sir, we are at the hotel now.." His driver announced right after he stopped the car in front of the entrance gate. Eunseok paused for a moment and thought for a moment. He has to reject the blind date he has tonight for the unsure opportunity of meeting Jiwoo again at Segye High School. He doesn't know if she is going to talk to him but all he knows that he will be give up everything he owns just to be with her again. He stepped out of the car and fixed his suit before walking into the hotel. He went straight to the lobby where he saw his date. He was about to take steps towards her but his eyes caught a familiar face.

It was Jiwoo in the flesh, holding onto the arms of a man while walking out of the elevator. His entire world stopped when he saw her again after all these years looking so happy and beautiful. He couldn't control his emotions and even himself, he walked past his date and went to grab Jiwoo's hand that was holding on other man's arm.

"Shim Jiwoo.." He spoke, as if those words, her name was the only reason he breathed.

Jiwoo, surprised to see Eunseok in the hotel she was staying at, couldn't form a word to say to him. The way he looked at the man she was with, she could see the pain in his eyes.

"Eunseok-hyung?" The man spoke, making Eunseok get back to his senses and looked at the man who spoke his name. "Eunseok-hyung…"

"Hyung?" Eunseok stammered, turning to Jiwoo for answers. She looked hesitant but she was able to pull her hand away from his hold.

"It has been a long time since we last saw each other." She smiled, "This is Woojae now.."

"Woojae?" Eunseok stammered once more and realized that the little brother Jiwoo loved had become a young man he barely recognized. "Woojae!" He smiled as he pulled the boy for an embrace. "I'm sorry I did not recognize you."

"I heard a lot about it." Woojae chuckled, returning the embrace to his older friend. "What are you doing here, hyung?" Woojae seemed to have taken the conversation with Eunseok after seeing his sister's reaction in seeing him all too sudden.

"I was—" Eunseok was about to speak when a woman dressed in white, with a orange wavy hair tapped his shoulder. She looked so sophisticated and was totally in the same level as Eunseok.

"I thought you saw me," She said linking her arm with Eunseok. "I can't believe you are ignoring your date!" She huffed.

Jiwoo smiled, she felt the woman was trying to make a point with those words that she quietly tugged on to her brother's arm. "It seems we caught you in the middle of something, hyung. We'll be going to the reunion." Woojae said and slowly excused themselves.

Eunseok watched Jiwoo walked away without saying a word to him. He knew he will never have a chance to speak to her again if he let this slip.

"Shall we have dinner, Eunseok?" The woman asked as she was still holding on to his arm, but Eunseok gently pulled his arm from her hold.

"I'm sorry Hana, I came here to tell you that I am sorry. I really do." Eunseok said and was ready to follow Jiwoo, but Hana grabbed his hand once more.

"This is the 4th time our parents planned this date, Song Eunseok." She frowned. "Is she the one you've been waiting for??" She asked.

"I'd rather die than miss this chance to talk to her," He replied, he was in the verge of tears when he looked at her. Hana's hold slowly loosened and finally let go of him. He thanked her and ran after Jiwoo, but it was too late. She had already left.

1 & 38 :)

1. What were your summers like as a kid?

I'm extremely lucky actually! I spent every single summer camping for at least 5 days in assorted campsites in various appalachian and southern states. For the most part though, my summers were very much just times where me and my siblings would get into trouble together. My dad worked as a mechanic at the local stainless steel plant for basically my entire life (he changed positions 2 years ago) and so he was really never home over summer days, and my mom, while technically having summer off as a teacher, was always doing 2nd jobs to make ends meet and was thus also always not around.

What i remember the most about summers growing up is how at my dad's we would spend the entire day in the woods, and all night playing with the other kids in the neighborhood. There was a massive old felled tree that perfectly crossed a creek that would eventually feed into the kentucky river in the woods where we played, so we'd go to that spot and we'd play as knights and elves and whatever other things we thought up. (We played detective noir type games in the winter) the days were always unbearably hot, so we'd take off our shoes and strip down and leave our clothes on the creek bed and just follow it upstream, all the way out to the coal powerplant which was about 2 or 3 miles from my house growing up. There was a spot near the coal plant still in the woods a ways where the creek turned fattened and well fed, but always damed up by what was essentially a naturally forming animal remains blockage? We played there a lot, and there were always tons of deer carcasses, and the dam was just skeletons and a few twigs completely blocking the flow of water turning the creek into the lightly flowing skinny thing it was at my house. Anyway... when we eventually came home my dad would hose us off in the back yard. He took us fishing a whole lot in the summers and always had me scrape off the scales for him. He would take me with him and my brothers to go noodling, but i was only allowed to watch.

At my mom's house summer was always about seeing just how far off you could run in a day before she got home and wise to what you were up to. Before i was in high school we lived in about like 4(?) houses so summer with her is always way more diverse through the years than at my dad's. I spent my summers at her house playing pretend with kids from all across the town i grew up in until we moved to a house an hour away from there. But i rememember the first house me and my siblings spent all our time building forts in the bushes outside. There were concrete back steps i'd sit on and watch my mom shave, i remember once taking everyone's gift candy and eating it so fast on those steps i vomited something awful on them. Our backyard grew always an abundance of those small watery strawberries. Every night i collected fireflies and my mom would try to get me to not eat them bc i was addicted to curious george 2006 and wanted to be just like him. We used to play in this old musty rotting camper at the second house. We had a metal car cover at that house cause there was a black walnut tree that was huuuuge... i remembee i'd sit under it when it rained. That house was where i learned the true joy of a summer icecream truck... but yeah... summers with her were spent creating, always making art, playing pretend, building forts... idk. Summers growing up were complicated but i really miss em! Tis true!
