So, @da-proti-toku-grem kind of inspired me to make a lengthy post, sharing some positive vibes across the fandom, listing the reasons why I love each member of Joker Out and why I would go full mom-mode on them and cook for them and bake them gluten-free cookies.
Anyway:
A Joker Out, brain-rot, appreciation post
(members listed in alphabetical order)
Bojan
Tumblr media
First up - as someone who had the chance to see them live, he is an insane performer
His ability to enchant the crowd is insane and you can tell really well that he has great acting abilities too
Watched him in Gospod Profesor too, spot on for someone who is a so-called amateur
His singing voice is... amazing to say the least, it feels really unique
Also, the way he talks, the sound of his voice, the words he uses, his pronunciation, if there were awards for talking he would get one
The languages he speaks, I want to study him, linguistically, he is truly a phenomenon
We of course love a bilingual king
He looks like he has his priorities straight
I also respect him so much for how open he is about his mental illness
I might relate to him a bit too much at times whoops
And the fact that he can somehow befriend literally anyone??? Love that
His friendship with Jere is the main one of course
Oh yeah and the fact that he literally helped people who collapsed at their gigs a few times
Bless him, he deserves all the rest he is hopefully getting
Jan
Tumblr media
First things first, I have a soft spot for math guys
And the way he talks about math is fascinating (but you still won't get me to like it Jan)
Cat dad???? We absolutely adore Igor and a man loving cats is such a green flag
I know people say he mumbles a bit and it's hard to understand him at times, but idk, he talks nice and slowly, so it's still really easy to understand him
He comes from my home region, so I am very biased haha
Also, every band needs a guitarist with luscious locks
He absolutely owns the colour red, that colour was invented specifically for him
The nose ring suits him so well too, this man KNOWS what fits him
And if that ends up being jackets with nothing underneath when he performs, THEN SO BE IT
I know people call Kris the lesbian icon, but from what I've seen lesbians are very drawn to Jan as well
Oh, and he gives me Klaus from the Umbrella Academy vibes (I blame the hair and the pink boa)
Jure
Tumblr media
Holy shit, sunshine in human form????
The most underappreciated one in the band imo
His surname literally means 'cat' and I am so normal that Jan has called him 'muca'
He also comes from my region haha, bias again
He's really good at filming, he actually shot a few things for RTV (national TV station) and edited them as well, god, talent
Also playing drums... I have sang, I have played guitar, played bass, but drums is something I feel like I could NEVER do, so hats off to you
As @da-proti-toku-grem pointed out, THE MOLE ON HIS LIP? weak knees, yes
He also reminds me of a good friend of mine and I vibe with him so much, I feel like I would vibe with Jure as well
I really don't like the fact that drummers tend to get ignored and I just wish there was more Jure performing content
Though I love it how every time, during Novi Val, he comes to the front and hangs with the others
His hair also looks so soft and fluffy aaaaaa
Again, biased but he resembles my bf the most out of everyone so hmmmm
Kris
Tumblr media
The baby of the band! (and the only one in the band I could actually call 'mulc')
In case you didn't know yet, he's half Dutch
And he speaks Dutch, which, as someone who speaks Dutch (in theory, not in practice) makes me really happy
I wish to study him linguistically as well
Also his parents' story feels very close to me, as I'm dating outside of my culture as well
According to him he was menace as a kid and I think we should normalise the fact that you can become a better person as you grow up
But pls don't honk at me on the road Kris, pls, I will cry
The songs he wrote??? NGVOT and Vse kar vem??? Oh boy, I love them, adore them
His holey sweaters are also a vibe
Dutch fans, if you don't shower him and the rest of the band with gifts at their Dutch concerts, I will be mad
Also gotta honorably mention Maks
They gotta be my fav nepo-but-not-really babies out there
Kinda like Maya Hawke?
I am ranting
He also looks like the only member of the band that I would fight, and idk why
Also, I must know if he supports Max Verstappen haha
Minus points for chemistry though, I cannot with that
Nace
Tumblr media
Okay everyone
Here we go
We have reached my beloved
I love all of them, but Nace just a bit more
It was love at first sight, I cannot lie
I have a soft spot for bassists and he might actually convince me to try and play bass again
He has been playing it for so long too??? like wow
Oh and of course; THE TATTOOS, BLESSETH BE THE TATTOOS
I will always go feral about his tattoos
At every concert
I know he was the last to join the band but it looks like he fits in so nicely, it's beautiful
Strong mom-codded dad friend vibes
He kinda is the dad of the band haha
And he looks like he gives amazing hugs (lucky all of you who had managed to get one already)
A nice addition to the band
Oh and he's apparently shit at sports which is like... felt
Plus the fact that he wanted to be a vet?
Me too boo, me too, but neither of us is there now
Anway, I'll stop now. In conclusion, this band has my whole heart and they deserve every good thing that happens to them and so much more.

After @seokoilua posted about the My Life, My Music interview (a while ago, this post is partially from my drafts!) I went to relisten to it. And in general it is a very fun interview with a lot of insightful moments about their creation process (Ne Bi Smel in particular) and the mixing process for example. Their voices in general are very soft (in tone, not volume) especially when talking to each other and the vibe is 🥰 I wanted to highlights some of my favourite moments because I want more people to know about them:
2:35 - They talk a bit about doing many concerts in a row and Kris says: "At one point in the summer we had four consecutive days of concerts and the fourth day was already the wors-" (gets cut of by Bojan). Knowing they have now done 7 concerts in 6 days during the nordic tour this is a little funny and a little sad to hear :(
3:59 - Not necessarily a moment but the first song (chosen by Bojan) is Ni Panike by Masayah and I think more people should go listen to Masayah so I'm including it >:)
14:30 - Ne Bi Smel was first called "burning room" and, quoting Bojan, "it couldn't have been more of an Ed Sheeran song." It sounds like the rest was not initially impressed: "and when I brought it to the rehearsal room the boys were like, yeah, hm, yeah no. and I think Jure just started banging on the drums and the guys took on the guitars and started playing some riff."
15:35 - The host asks a question about something they said somewhere else and Bojan and Kris argue a bit about who said that in the first place. It's very cute and my favourite moment is Bojan whispering at the end "I don't think so" because of course he needs to get last word in
21:34 - Hater!Kris returns because apparently he sends "not to appealing" songs to the groupchat?
Kris (about Jet Black Diamonds): The first time that we heard them it was their first single Retro Anorak, and I remember sending over the video to the guys in the group chat and I was like "oh, this is interesting," because usually I send some really… not too- Host: Obscure Kris: No no. Not too appealing Slovenian songs, because- Bojan: Yeah, Kris does that Kris: to be honest there's loads of them and I keep kinda getting them recommended somehow on Facebook or I dunno, it's like a positive feedback loop
Honestly the most surprising thing to me about this is that in the year of our lord 2022 Kris still used Facebook actively enough to stumble across things like that
23:56 - Kris talks about forming Buržoazija and how his guitar instructor recommended Jan: "Jan at that point was really like- I didn't really understand what he was about, he was like an introverted guy, really, also listening to a lot of metal and I was like "okaaay? I guess we'll try?" and then we started to practice and really got along."
25:45 - Luka (Apokalipsa's guitar player) and Martin already knew how to play and Bojan didn't and that's how they decided that he should sing. Also their first performance (also up on youtube, baby Bojči is very cute) was two (2!!) weeks after they started practising together
28:49 - About creating outside of Slovenia
Host: Is there something specific that you haven't yet done that you are desperately keen to do, or is this gonna gently evolve? Bojan: I dunno about the desperately want to do, I guess one thing we "truly desperately want to do" is go out of Slovenia to create. To try a new space. So go to a studio somewhere outside of our borders and see if the mindflow is different there. That is the only thing I can think of right now. Maybe Kris has- Kris: In addition to that, I really wanna see us tour anywhere, anywhere outside of Slovenia" Host: You are beginning to get to the audience already a little bit, […], you can find opportunities Kris: Yes, yes, we are, don't worry about it. We just don't want to talk to much about it yet Bojan: Let's say we're gonna have another interview next year and we're gonna have so much to talk about
This was before Hamburg where they created Carpe Diem and before London and honestly I'm glad they're getting to experience that Erasmus+/semester abroad experience because it's something they really wanted to do and they seem to be enjoying it a lot

Hi! I hope this post won't flop </3
first of all I wanted to finally reveal myself on this platform - many of you know me as Himbeertee_ on tiktok and twitter, Hello! Yes, I'm also here :P
I felt like last few days were like a fever dream - so I decided to write a summary/recap of my journey to Stozice.
It was not my first Joker Out show, last month I was in Żalec and both times I traveled by train and bus, so if anyone wonders how to get to Slovenia from Poland - the cheapest way is by Flixbus, but the fastest is by plane. I spent 5 hours in train and 11 hours in bus and it was only one way ride.
Me and my friend arrived at the arena around 4pm and we were 24/25 in the queue and we ended up at barricade in front of Kris, thanks to long catwalk and very long barricade. (I wanted to be at Kris' side, because duuuh i'm a Kris girlie).
If it comes to new merch - there were new winter beanies, new shirts, hoodies, socks, UM and Demoni CD's, condoms, new notebook (juhuhu hahaha), new tote bags and if you ask me... well.. those shirts didn't look good at least for me, but the rest of it was fine. I bought baby boos socks, because (to the unpopular opinion) I love the name xD
If it comes to the show alone, I will try to describe few songs. As you might have seen on twitter I managed to get the setlist (which was leaked at least day before - and unfortunately i saw some of it so I didnt experience the surprise).
Tumblr media
The live-from-backstage intro was so cool, like I had chills, the screen was turning from the backstage to black screen or to joker out sign with the music that made your heart beat to it, it definitely built an atmosphere, we saw Jo getting ready to rock the stage, Kris leading the 5 of them to the stage from backstage, then they finally came from behind drums, which was such a cool entrance!
First song was Sunny Side of London - and now I understand that they picked it as an opener because of the "welcome" at the beginning, but when I first heard it i was kinda sceptical why is this the first song. People from the brass band joined them for the iconic balcan solo (dare I say - Kris outwhored himself during the solo).
Then we screamed for the record and we beat it, but honestly I think that the result should be higher, but because it was such an open space, the device didnt gather the sound as good as in smaller venues.
Then gola and bele sanje - honestly don't remember much of it because I was enjoying myself, maybe a little too much, but the guitar transition from bele sanje to plastika was sooooo good.
Plastika oh plastika! This song is made for concerts, everyone were screaming their lungs off and Bojan was everywhere, including the cat walk.
Proti toku - what can I say other than justice for Proti Toku! Like i dont understand why they abandoned this song at the shows...
As you already know I was at Kris' side and I had the best view on him, let me tell you. This man didn't hold back during dopamin, his moves were electric and there should be another twitter account "Kris shuffles to:"
Padam - Bojan sang the song laying on the catwalk for the entire length of the song and for a moment I was so confused where he went, because I didn't see him at first.
Then after Padam we had a small break, that included screenings of pre-eurovision clips from their vlogs and during that everyone was lying on the stage (not sure about Jure tho).
Then demoni happened and the Iconic scream was... well... demonic xD Bojan ended up almost on all fours in front of 12k audience. You're welcome or something.
Katrina - is another song which was made to being played on stage. I loved the red and white lights especially, bojan was very slutty and we were introduced to releasing fumes from the pyro stuff (not real pyro or fire on their show in Stozice).
ASTP - AMAZING intro played by a dude with trumpet, I had chills, Bojan was sitting on his knees on the stage, listening to it. I'll try to upload it to tiktok later! It is one of my fav songs. Great vocals from Bojan and Kris, the second one was very slutty af during the song (who is surprised at this point?). No Janace ending, Jan ended the song playing at the end of catwalk, nice moment between Nace and Bojan.
Omamljeno Telo - well this is the only JO song that I am not that much a fan of, but they definitely delivered their perfomance, especially when everyone went to the catwalk. We had Kris/Nace moment during the song.
Kot Srce Ki Kri Poganja - will you banish me If I tell you that I have never heard any of their unreleased songs?
Anyway I LOVED THIS SONG, can they release it on new album please? I already knew that Martin will join them because I saw pics from backstage before the show, but I was surprised to see Matic there. This songs slaps and I fell in love with the vibe martin gave while playing the bass. I couldnt stop staring at him, he was magnetic and so happy to play with others. I might cry a little when Nace gave him his bass. I loved how everyone was hugging each other before and after the song. Such a heartwarming moment, even if Martin doesnt play anymore, you could definitely see that he is still part of the family <3
Metulji - amazing perfomance, again they delivered, love the song, also amazing Jan solo at the end of the song, kinda improvised i think? At least I have never heard those sounds before.
Vse Kar Vem - well, you know who I was focused on xD I guess I have a new Vse Kar Vem iconic video for you xD
NGVOT - before the song I was wondering if they will do Tavastia 2.0 with ngvot and the scream i I let out when I saw that Bojan was far from the mic, far enough to be late to start singing the song if he had to, and then I turned to look at Kris and I already knew. This is all I've been asking for. I'm so glad that Kris is more comfortable to sing the first verse, his voice was more relaxed, less shaky than in Tavastia, I loved the way he sang "ti pa barvo las" the way Bojan does. But I still think he has to work a little bit on his voice, because I know he CAN sing (from other videos). I wonder if they will leave this song as a duet for other shows in the future or If it was like one-time thing.
Vem Da Gres - all I remember was Nace on our side and how handsome he looked. I'm not a Nace girlie, but I can definitely see why others are, and his new hair and the outfit... asdfgrew
Ne Bi Smel - this time Jan joined our side and he had a nice moment with Bojan
Ona - Another time when men from brass band joined and it was the song which had changed arrangement. I loved it. the whole vibe of the song stayed the same, but the brass instruments elevated it. (If i think about any fuck ups during the show - it happened here - the mic of the Saxophone guy didnt work at first, I've heard him from the front row, but idk if people in the back have heard him). During this song they also showed me and my friend on the screen and i cant stop thinking about how the hell it happened xD Now i am immortal in joker out stozice lore xD
Tokio - honestly don't remember what was happening - probably I was just screaming and singing.
Umazane Misli - i loved it. I LOVED IT. The way Bojan was demanding the audience who and when should they sing, and then he came down to us and let 2 people sing, and he received the THREE KAKSI ANANAS LONKERO shirt and he loved it so much, he was so smiley and took this shirt with him on the stage.
Novi val - I almost cried. This is my fav song, and thanks to Joker Out Subs and Spela the project came true, the coloful lights flashed beautifully above boy's heads. We and them were touched and it was such a special moment. At the beginning of Novi Val Jure came to our side and we could see his outfit from the closer proximity, and dare I say it was second best after Kris'.
Last but not least - Carpe Diem. After novi val they left the stage, but everyone knew it wasnt over. The break was too long and It just clicked in my head that what if they are changing into their Eurovision clothes. AND THEY DID. I just predicted it seconds before it happened. It was unreal - like i just travelled back in time 5 months.
Overall it was the best night of my life. Everything was perfect. The lights were amazing. The stage was amazing. Clothes - god, the amount of details on each outfit! Personally I think Kris and Jure had the best outfits. I couldnt really see Jan and Nace outfit details, but the looked GOOD. But if I have to complain - not a fan of detachable sleeves on Bojan's shirt.
They all delivered their performances. Not a single mistake - i am so impressed because thats a skill.
We all agree that Kris outdid himself that night. The way he moved, the way he sang, the way he was SO CONFIDENT. Like he was born to be in that exact moment.
I also loved every single interaction between boys, the group ones, or the doubles. Maybe there was no Jan and Nace astp ending but they had few moments. It was so nice to see Jan and Bojan jamming together, Kris and Nace doing their thing, Bojan and Kris' little shenanigans and even Jure and Jan had their moment when Jan ran to him at the beginning of the show.
I also love how they had movie-like credits. Everyone from their crew was credited, every person who worked on the show, team of photographers etc.
Other thing was how nice it was to being supplied with water all the time. The people behind barricade were giving us cups with water all the time, and even at the end of the show we got whole bottles.
Please don't take this post as a proper review - these are just my thoughts of the show <3

DELTARUNE PREDICTION TIME
I hope I finish this post before the anniversary of chapter 1 (nothing else notable happens on that day) I'm putting my 100% correct theories+ predictions here just in case Toby decides to release chapter 3 alone for some reason (I personally think he's releasing just 3 and 4 together next year), but who knows with that dog.
Tumblr media
CHAPTER 3
As everyone else thinks, it's safe to say that the dark world in chapter 3 is probably gonna be TV themed. With different areas going through different channels.
THE BOSS
I don't think we can predict who exactly the main villain is yet based off of one thing Jevil said about a queen in one line. But it would make sense if it were some fucked up game show host guy. Maybe since the Spade King represents Susie's dad, and Queen represents a mother, the chapter 3 boss could represent that estranged uncle that nobody really talks about.
Also Tenna is probably the guy that betrayed Spamton. Not Mike.
Tumblr media
THE SHADOWMEN
They're just gonna be silly litle guys.
THE WEATHER CHANNEL
Also sily.
THE POLICE
Since Toriel called the police and Kris left the door opened, I think that either Undyne shows up, or Napstablook shows up wearing Undyne's Undertale armor. Both of which would be awesome sauce.
NOELLE
No idea if she'll show up in the chapter. But I also have no clue why else the Lost Girl theme was in that unused sneaking section. Yes I'm still thinking about this.
THE END
I believe that chapter 3 might end with Kris sealing the fountain. Like you walk up, that sickass guitar riff plays, the screen fades to white, and the chapter ends (assuming it releases with chapter 4). Imagine how relieving it would be that the chapter doesn't have to end on a massive cliffhanger!
CHAPTER 4
Based on the screenshots we got for the 2022 status update, I don't think chapter 4 will have a dark world. It seems like a nice intermission chapter to just hang out with Susie in Hometown for a couple hours. We could get more insight into the residents of the town, as well as some lore.
Tumblr media
i'm a huge fan of rain so this seems like the best the game will ever get.
I think its possible that Toby might have changed his might about releasing 3-5 together, and that he might just release 3 and 4. Assuming this chapter is just in the light world, it would probably be a lot faster to develop. No enemies, no battles, just cutscenes.
Keep in mind, I just took one programming class 5 years ago, so I'm not the ultimate authority on game design. But if it is easier to develop, I think we could see chapters 3+4 next fall.
I don't really have any other predictions for chapter 4 since all we have are a few screenshots, and even less for the future chapters. So I'm just going to talk about other general things in the game.
THE BUNKER
Tumblr media
Gaster is afoot. Also maybe Dess or something idk yet. Oh and a dark fountain too. Maybe even the supply closet one.
DARK WORLDS
I don't think EVERY room with double doors is going to be a dark world, especially considering that Toby can just retcon them in between chapters, so I like to go off of narrative significance.
I think there will totally be a dark world in the church, considering the Dreemurr family has a significant amount of history with it, as well as the interesting thing you could do with it. Like a giant pipe organ castle or something.
There probably won't be a dark world in Ice-E's, unless something super traumatizing happened to Kris there when they were a kid. But I still have my eye on that Ice-E guy. Something fishy is absolutely going on with him.
Tumblr media
why is he so big
Asgore's flower shop seems like a really good place for a dark world, and I need to see what the golden flower darkener would be. The empty fridge could even be like the ice palace from Dragon Blazers.
THE HOLIDAYS
Rudy is most likely going to die. I really don't want him to but unfortunately it would be really good for the story. Noelle would be forced to stand up to her mom like she did to Queen.
Also Noelle's mom's name is probably either Clarice or Carol.
WEIRD ROUTE
Its likely that not every chapter will have a weird route. I think they are more tied to Noelle's presence, due to her affinity for video game glitches when she was younger. Especially because it seems like the route itself isn't supposed to happen in the game world. And the weird route is a way to break out of the whole "your choices don't matter" thing. You might even be able to save Rudy in the route, at the cost of Noelle's mental state and every other horrible thing you may have to do.
Tumblr media
THE KNIGHT
I don't think the Knight will be the main antagonist. It might get revealed relatively early (like chapter 5), unless its Gaster or something. The actual main antagonist of the game will be either the Roaring Titans or the Angel.
THE ROARING
This is probably gonna happen at some point. Ralsei leaves for ONE minute and someone opens a dark fountain in a dark world. Can't have shit.
Tumblr media
holy hell they look so badass
Also penumbra phantasm final boss theme. make it happen toby.

before i sleep there's something i wanted to write down about the current deltarune event and a tad bit of speculation on my part:
me and a friend were discussing the "ARG (loosely named)" for the 7th anniversary of undertale, and we were both shooting ideas back and forth concerning the various different extra webpages and stuff that there are, and we came to the following conclusion:
dess will play a major role in the very near future, as soon as chapter 3.
what i noticed was a more significant abundance of content related to dess during this. the whole noelle blog thing going on where noelle's posting a bunch of stuff about her life and the stuff she's getting into, with mentions of dess and even an implied contribution to the ICE-E sighting catalog (https://deltarune.com/icee/) tells me that there's gonna be some stuff related to dess coming up. but that's not all.
my friend was also snooping around the various pages with their Super HTML Skills and they were digging up the names of the files on said pages to see if they could find any clues, and they came across the files "findher.mp3" and "holiday_country.mp3"
"findher.mp3" is an mp3 file that plays a version of "Lost Girl" in a guitar arrangement. i'll spare you the nerding out on music theory and stuff i learned from film scoring, but what's most interesting about this is the fact that the url this is connected to is "https://deltarune.com/dess." not incredibly subtle, but we know for a fact that this will be important soon, along with the red guitar featured on the page.
secondly, "holiday_country.mp3" is an mp3 file which plays a country rendition of "Jingle Bells," a song which is HEAVILY associated with Noelle along with other holiday-related concepts and items. we can easily connect this to the bluebubble.rodeo page where kris and susie appear to be in cowboy attire, and combining this with the "dess" page and the red guitar, which is an instrument associated with cowboys in many wild western films, we can deduce not only that the next dark world area is going to be cowboy-themed, wholly or partially, but we can also assume that dess will be involved in this somehow. maybe she's in the dark world? maybe that's where she ran off to?
"but why can't it just be noelle-related?" i hear you asking. for all i know it could be, and this theory could be completely backwards. but i feel like if toby wanted to delve this deep into noelle's character, he would've done so in ch. 2, which is also the chapter where the groundwork was laid for exploration of dess and who she was-- us being introduced to her, the kind of stuff she did, her relation to the other characters like noelle, kris, and asriel. and with that kind of stuff hanging in the air ever since before ch. 2 came out, i seriously doubt that this would be left unsolved for much longer.
my speculation here is shaky and minute, but nevertheless here's my idea: dess, at some point, went missing. she's been living in the dark world ever since, and is probably the first character chronologically to enter it. and with the clues we've been given during this event, i'd say she's been hanging out with the dark world's cowboys for the last (X) amount of years.
i'm not certain completely on everything just yet, but with all of these clues and such i think one thing is clear:
dess will play a major role in ch. 3.

on that note, i had Don’t Forget stuck in my head last night and i have some thoughts that i’m just going to deposit here. your problem now:
i’ve seen a lot of people say that it’s dess singing, and that makes a good amount of sense, but with the sweepstakes sneak peeks, we know dess was a guitar player. if don’t forget is supposed to be her song, wouldn’t it make more sense if it was . acoustic guitar. not piano. you know who DOES play piano though. kris
if i say it’s kris singing will you be mad at me
on one of her blog posts, noelle talks about how kris would come over to play piano and how sometimes it felt like a concert just for her... if i say they were playing don’t forget will you be mad at me
you can combine this with the usual “dess is the singer” theory. kris played the piano, and from wherever she is now, dess sang. it was the one way she had of reaching noelle
it just kind of makes thematic sense that don’t forget is a song for noelle specifically. “i’m with you in the dark” / catti saying that lately noelle has been “slipping into the darkness.” noelle’s ice powers / “...still shining in the cold.” etc
are you mad at m
since ralsei is some kind of weird reflection of kris - since he’s almost definitely their old horn headband - he probably has similar ties to the piano. remember that dream i had about him playing the piano in a future chapter. i still think i was onto something. anyway if i say he could be the one singing and playing will you be mad at me
ORRRRR none of this matters because it’s just a song on the soundtrack that has no significance in the actual game beyond the lyrics applying to the story in probably more than one way 👍🏾

Misconceptions, Miscommunication, and Misinformation Pt98
AO3   Beginning   Previous   Next
Damian sat back to back with Luka in a lesser traveled area of the park. He was drawing in his sketchbook while the other boy seemed to be strumming his guitar absentmindedly. It was strange being in such an unstructured school, not to mention having teachers who offered advice rather than criticism. He hadn’t liked it at first but it was growing on him. Not having to spend his time in a classroom with people who needed far less advanced curriculum made his life less monotonous. He was actually starting to enjoy himself until he spotted some of his former classmates standing off to the side, whispering and pointing at them.
“If you have something to say, say it. Otherwise go disturb someone else.” His words caused the group to jump and Luka stopped playing. They all just stood there looking sheepish and Damian took the moment to identify them. Luka’s sister was there, looking ridiculous trying to hide behind her much smaller girlfriend. The idiot blogger’s boyfriend was next to them looking anywhere but at him and Luka. Finally came the small girl with dreadlocks and her boyfriend. They all looked insanely uncomfortable.
“Hey guys, what’s up?” Luka’s calm demeanor seemed to release some of the tension. His sister even managed a small smile.
“Are you really a Wayne?” The blogger’s boyfriend seemed shocked the words came out of his mouth. Damian let out an annoyed scoff.
“Now you decided to confirm things? Where was this attitude when that liar was wrapping you all around her finger?” They all flinched and Luka elbowed him in the small of his back. He scowled at his boyfriend. These idiots were ruining the little time they got alone together and he seemed fine with it.
“What do you need Jules?” Luka zeroed in on his sister, ignoring the others. Apparently he was annoyed at the interruption. The girl mumbled something but it was her girlfriend that actually spoke.
“We saw an article about Marinette getting hurt. Is she alright?” He hadn’t even realized his father released a press statement yet, let alone that it made it to Paris, though he probably should have expected it once the decision was made. He shared a look with Luka before responding.
“If you want to know you should ask her. I’m not about to give out personal information to anyone, let alone any of you.” They flinched again and Damian fought not to roll his eyes. He couldn’t figure out what Marinette ever saw in these people.
“The number we have for her isn’t in service and we didn’t think we’d be welcome at the bakery.” That was possibly the first intelligent thing he’d heard out of them. Just imagining Sabine’s reaction to any of her daughter’s former classmates entering her business caused a feral grin.
“And what do you care if she is alright or not? Last time you saw her you were perfectly happy to see her injured, emotionally if not physically.” None of those present were actually at the assault but they all had aimed comments at Marinette that were meant to wound.
“We thought she was bullying Lila.” The girl with dreads decided to throw out that nonsense. Before he could answer such stupidity Luka broke in.
“Someone else’s bad behavior doesn’t excuse yours even if that had been true. I personally am at a loss to understand how any of you could ever believe Mari would bully anyone. It is a ridiculous thought.” Damian eyed his boyfriend warily. He’d never heard a tone anywhere near that cold come from him before. While he didn’t want that sound aimed at him, he was rather impressed.
“You didn’t see any of the stunts she pulled with Adrien.” Luka’s sister finally figured out how to be audible, he gave her a disappointed frown.
“Stunts that you all were encouraging her to do. Many of them you were a part of. I wonder how many wouldn’t have happened without all of your interference. Do you really think she would have gone after Lila for no reason with all of you against her?” They were all shuffling nervously and refusing to make eye contact again. “I think you all need to find out why you let yourselves be deceived so easily before you talk to Mari. That way any apologies may actually be sincere rather than just an effort to ease your own guilt.”
As they scampered away Damian could only smile fondly at the other boy. Luka didn’t put people in their place very often but it was always effective. He was staring after his sister and Damian could see the worry in his posture. He reached out to lace their fingers together.
“She’ll come around, it will just take time. None of them are ready to admit how wrong they were.” Luka leaned into him and while Damian couldn’t help scanning the area to make sure no one was watching, he didn’t feel the need to pull away. He never thought he’d be so comfortable showing affection in public, but Luka seemed to have a habit of making the impossible happen.
“I should have been more present. If I had paid more attention to Jules maybe I could have stopped her from being pulled in in the first place. At the very least I could have been there more for Mari. She’s always hidden her pain too well.”

NAME: Kris
STAR SIGN: Gemini
HEIGHT: 5′8"
WHAT’S YOUR MIDDLE NAME ? Mmmm, stranger danger
PUT YOUR SPOTIFY ON SHUFFLE. WHAT ARE THE FIRST 6 SONGS THAT POPPED UP ?: Smokin’ Out the Window by B.runo Mars and the other guy, That’s How You Know from E.nchanted, Chant from the live H.adestown recording, What Else Can I Do? from E.ncanto, Like a Girl by L.izzo, Wu Ji from The U.ntamed-- the version with just X.iao Z.han (yes, Huaxiu’s vc I never shut up about)
EVER HAD A POEM OR SONG WRITTEN ABOUT YOU ?  Not that I know of
WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU PLAYED AIR GUITAR ? Hmmm, I honestly can’t remember
WHO IS YOUR CELEBRITY CRUSH ? Do I have one??? Do I? Like there are some I think are Neat, but is it crush level? I’ll probably think of one right after I post this
WHAT’S A SOUND YOU HATE; SOUND YOU LOVE ? Grinding teeth; the sound of my dog Snowball’s little nails clacking on the floor as she approaches wherever I’m chilling ^_^ Or Luna’s little myriad of noises she makes
DO YOU BELIEVE IN GHOSTS ?  Nah
HOW ABOUT ALIENS ? Statistically it makes sense but it is quite literally the last thing on my list of priorities to care about
DO YOU DRIVE ?  Yep! Minus undergrad I’ve always lived in places where there was some kind of commute and no public transit so I really had no choice. ....I’d rather be driven though
IF SO, HAVE YOU EVER CRASHED ?  No, but I have been bumped into on two occasions  while I was just....chilling. Thankfully there was no damage and they weren’t super hard hits, just startling. 
WHAT WAS THE LAST BOOK YOU READ ? I refuse to count my textbooks so instead it was finishing up H.eaven O.fficial’s B.lessing volume 1 over Spring Break last week
DO YOU LIKE THE SMELL OF GASOLINE ?  Absolutely not
WHAT WAS THE LAST MOVIE YOU SAW ? T.urning R.ed yesterday, it was so cute!
WHAT’S THE WORST INJURY YOU’VE EVER HAD ? I’ve never actually had any bad injuries, so the worst is probably just some basic cut or something. Wait no, psychologically the worst was when my big toe stepped on a sewing needle I hadn’t realized I’d dropped. Physically it did like one point of damage, but the psychic damage was indescribable 
DO YOU HAVE ANY OBSESSIONS RIGHT NOW ? There’s always the constants because for some reason I’m incapable of liking things a normal amount (K.H, M.DZS/T.GCF, S.oC) but uhhhh anything new of note....? School takes up so much of my time it’s hard to even remember what recreational stuff I do-- WAIT, oh yeah I’ve totally been binging the t/rue c/rime podcast R.edhanded as of late that bottleofbabes introduced me to. Loving it. 
DO YOU TEND TO HOLD GRUDGES AGAINST PEOPLE WHO HAVE DONE YOU WRONG ?  Hahahaha yeahhhh, but I guess it also depends on how the person acts afterward? Like if they choose to be ridiculous, definitely, but if like things are settled chill and maturely and behavior is changed then I’m willing to move on. I try to always look at my own actions to make sure I’m not overreacting to stuff. 
IN A RELATIONSHIP ? With “being well-rested after a night of sleep” but she is a cruel mistress and constantly eludes me

Fierce & Feisty Friday
Anna's Limit
This week's fierce and feisty excerpt comes from Sophisticated Grace (summary below). Anna’s upset because her rehearsal with the Reindeer Herders, HM and Kris' punk band, gets derailed because of the band's personal problems.
*******************
There's something weird in the air, and I don't like it. Kris is mad at HM for some reason, and Elsa knows it but won't say. And Kris won't say. And I'm not about to ask the person Kris is mad at and I'm pretty sure she'd say it wasn’t any of my business anyway, which is also what Kris said to me. Plus he's been avoiding me for two whole days. He's fallen asleep drunk on the couch two nights in a row and hasn't even tried to touch me. I have no idea what I did.
And Olaf is still upset with Sven and Sven still doesn't know why. And he and Kris have been getting drunk together. And both of them have been too hungover to practice. And this rehearsal has been a nightmare. And they can't stop laughing.
I finally reach my limit.
"F**k you, f**k you, and f**k you!" I point my violin bow at everyone but Olaf, who deserves a "f**k you", too, because he's being a whiny brat, but I just can’t say it to him.  If anyone deserves to have a problem, it's Olaf.  No one else has any excuse, as far as I can tell.
"I agreed to play with you guys because I thought you were pros and you'd actually behave like adults. You need to figure this sh*t out or I'm not playing with you. Right now. I play in an orchestra conducted by my a-hole ex-husband and I don’t pull this kind of crap. You all suck and you need to get over whatever bullsh*t you have going on and get the fucking job done, yeah?  And Kris, we have 2 weeks together. That's it. 2 weeks. And now you've fallen asleep drunk on the couch with Sven two nights in a row. And that's two mornings where you haven’t been there. Hungover on the couch doesn't count as there. You promised me!"
I start packing up and they're all shocked. "Hey, Ryder, you want to go to the Irish music session with me? I feel like actually playing music with real musicians instead of babysitting."
"Yes, ma'am." 
"I can't believe I was gonna miss it for this f**king rehearsal. You can take Kris' guitar. He won't need it." The session Matt told me about is conveniently just 10 blocks away. We'll just get there a little early and have a whiskey. Or 3. Plus a pint.
******************
Sophisticated Grace
Rated M (sexual content, language, alcohol abuse)
Chapter 29 (tentatively titled "Reality Bites") to be posted any day now!!!
Kristanna, Elsamaren
Elsa, who is recovering from debilitating OCD, drags her newly divorced sister Anna to see HM’s punk band the Reindeer Herders. Anna never bargained on more than a one-night stand with HM’s guitarist Kris, though. This story follows the sisters’ relationships with the bandmates over several years, each time they have a show in Arendelle, and everything in between.

also, do you have general Johto kids headcanons? fun quirks or things like that?
Everahahahahaha oh boy do I ever 
Ethan:
Ethan plays acoustic guitar (terribly) and ukelele (skillfully) but refuses to play ukelele in public in case he loses “street cred”
His weird hill to die on is that hazelnuts belong in the ground beef you prepare for tacos. His friends are all really alive on that hill.
He absolutely bought one of those sweaters with the pocket for like a cat or something but for his Marill and he will not be accepting criticism on it. Don’t you even dare.
He is desperate to wingman, but if he was asked to wingman, he wouldn’t know the first thing about it. Do not ask him to wingman
Kris: 
She once made a survey for a class and forgot that straight was a sexuality someone could possibly be
Her bedroom is always tidy and she washes her sheets weekly, but all her belongings are permanently covered in Pokemon hair and fur
She left a negative review on Professor Elm’s website after she found out he got robbed by a preteen and called another preteen to deal with it, instead of like, you know, the cops. This was done anonymously and Elm still is upset about it.
She rarely gets fast food, but when does, she doubles up on fries and refuses to share them unless you play a round of truth or dare (she always chooses dare).
Lyra:
Literally thinks every night should be movie night. What, you have to work tomorrow? That’s a shame, I picked up A REALLY GOOD FILM (it’s a memey cult classic)
Has a vine account where 80% of her vines are her zooming in on Pokemon and Elite Four members doing strange things out of context. Her account is insanely popular.
She sings in the shower. Thankfully, she isn’t tone-deaf, but she also isn’t trying very hard to sound good, either.
She keeps threatening to chop her hair off, but then doesn’t and gets mad when she’s called out on her BS.
Silver:  
Earbuds always in out in public unless he’s with someone. He’s usually listening to obscure post punk or some podcast that gets into weird aspects of biology or engineering
He dryly says “flying types aren’t real.” No one knows if he’s being honest or not.
Silver is a tea snob, but the only way you could get him to admit that is if you start saying your preferred tea brand is like $1 box of fruit tea you got from the dollar store.
Silver unironically loves shiny Sneasel. Pink and yellow are good colors on a sneasel, okay? Thanks.

📝  Quiz Game
ty @calicooky and @jkjms 🥺
you're fierce, courageous and intelligent.
you have an electric smile and there's something magical about your words. people want to be liked by you, because when you like someone it's felt so very deeply. you're an angry sky nurturing dark forests and wide meadows, you're the wide-spread wings of a dragon, you're the stranger stuck in minds and the classmate that's so hard to forget. it's an honor to know you, it's an honor to be loved by you, it's an honor to love you. i wish you, too, could feel the love and the adoration you've been pouring into this world.
ok what are these tears 😭
.
🎵 What BTS era are you?
@jiminslight @jkjms @euphhorias ty for tagging me!
Spring Day
Run's softer older sister, equally as gay/traumatised as Run but it made them soft and nostalgic instead of trying to cling onto memories that never happened, you miss simpler, happier times and although it makes you sad, you know that the future isn't something to be nervous about, everything will be okay in the end "But what is grief, if not love persevering?"
omg what an honor?? 😭
.
💜  What does love mean to you?
@gimbapchefs @jkjms thank you!
something you want to share
you have so much love and you just want to share it with everybody, don't you? there's nothing more you'd hate than to keep your fondness and tenderness for other people and love as a whole inside. please never hide your love for others, be reckless and loud with your "i love you"s and make plans when it feels like no one else is bold enough to. we're all scared that our love won't be matched or reciprocated, we fear rejection and we have this idea that the people we love don't actually love us but only tolerate us for the sake of having someone to keep them company. but it's people like you, people who want to share their love with the world, that change that. so make plans, don't leave anything unsaid, send that song that made you think of them. life is too short to keep your love inside.
i’m sad :((
.
✨ Which BTS member would you vibe with?
tagged by @calicooky thanks kris <3
Jeongguk
Ah, the golden maknae. He's got the most tender heart and the sweetest soul, no matter how many tattoos or piercings he gets in the future--he has "please love me" tattooed on himself now, afterall. Jeongguk is willing and wants to learn, and strives to be his personal best. He wants balance in his life, appreciates beauty, and is a romantic at heart. He's constantly analyzing himself, how he can be better, do better, and honestly he probably doesn't give himself enough credit. Don't be so hard on yourself if you relate to all of that--you're allowed to both give yourself a break and remember that we are always evolving.

background  .
christian  kwon  grew  up  in  laguna  beach  ,  california  to  a  pediatrician  and  an  optometrist  ,  so  his  life  was  pretty  comfortable  from  the  start  .  he  grew  up  near  the  beach  and  in  a  home  that  was  bigger  than  what  was  needed  for  the  three  of  them  ,  but  that  was  his  parents  making  life  comfortable  for  him  .  
growing  up  ,  christian  was  the  kid  who  had  everything  ,  but  never  treated  people  as  less  than  .  granted  ,  he  went  to  school  with  the  kids  who  had  larger  than  life  homes  of  dreamed  of  getting  a  mercedes  for  their  sixteenth  ,  but  he  had  friends  who  didn’t  have  that  kind  of  lifestyle  ,  and  never  treated  anyone  other  than  the  way  he  wanted  to  be  . 
his  parents  were  constantly  putting  christian  into  various  after  school  clubs  to  keep  him  busy  ,  and  this  was  where  he  discovered  his  love  for  music  .  he  started  out  with  learning  how  to  play  the  guitar  ,  but  then  he  eventually  found  himself  being  pulled  towards  the  drums  .  christian  wasn’t  a  prodigy  by  any  means  ,  but  he  took  the  instrument  quite  easily  .  
it  was  no  surprise  that  during  high  school  ,  christian  decided  to  start  a  band  .  it  took  a  lot  of  trial  and  error  ,  and  for  about  six  months  the  band  didn’t  even  have  a  name  .  during  those  six  months  ,  the  band  worked  together  to  find  their  sound  and  constantly  wrote  music  together  until  they  eventually  found  themselves  with  a  small  gig  where  they  debuted  as  after  laughter  .
the  band  continued  to  work  towards  their  dreams  ,  eventually  recording  their  first  album  (  all  we  know  is  falling  )  and  being  a  part  of  the  lineup  for  the  warped  tour  following  their  graduation  from  high  school  in  2011  .  following  the  tour  ,  the  band  began  working  on  their  second  album  in  2013  (  riot!  )  and  this  was  the  album  that  catapulted  them  into  mainstream  success  due  to  the  singles  crushcrushcrush  ,  misery  business  ,  and  that’s  what  you  get  .  the  album  went  platinum  ,  and  they  were  nominated  for  their  first  grammy  .
the  group  went  on  their  second  tour  ,  and  took  a  short  break  before  diving  into  their  third  album  .  they  were  soon  releasing  brand  new  eyes  in  2016  ,  and  they  were  off  on  their  first  world  tour  .  during  the  tour  ,  the  band  released  their  ep  singles  club  ,  and  finished  their  tour  a  few  months  later  .  deserving  a  bit  of  rest  ,  the  band  took  a  year’s  hiatus  before  returning  to  the  music  scene in  2018  with  their  album  paramore  .  the  album  spawned  four  singles  ,  and  one  of  them  ,  ain’t  it  fun  ,  went  on  to  win  the  band  their  first  grammy  .
later  in  that  same  year  ,  the  band  released  their  self - titled  album  after  laughter  ,  and  went  on  a  nine  month  tour  to  perform  both  albums  .  
exposed  .
during  his  time  in  the  band  ,  christian  found  himself  a  committed  relationship  .  the  couple  were  together  for  about  two  and  a  half  years  before  christian  finally  proposed  ,  and  they  were  both  excited  to  be  getting  married  .  their  engagement  had  been  a  blissful  one  ,  and  within  two  years  they  were  ready  to  get  married  .  the  day  came  ,  and  christian  found  himself  with  cold  feet  ,  thus  deciding  to  leave  his  fiancé  without  so  much  of  a  goodbye  before  heading  out  of  the  country  .
christian’s  name  had  been  slandered  due  to  his  decision  ,  and  his  management  team  wasn’t  sure  of  how  to  fix  the  error  of  his  ways  .  therefore  ,  when  the  opportunity  rose  ,  his  team  had  him  cast  on  the  show  in  a  way  to  help  clear  up  speculations  about  him  and  as  a  way  to  fix  the  tarnished  image  he  obtained  following  the  end  of  his  engagement  .
temperament  .
he’s  a  bit  of  an  asshole  .  not  a  bit  ,  he  is  .  christian  is  very  much  a  smooth  talker  and  knows  how  to  get  what  he  wants  due  to  his  charisma  .  definitely  the  ‘  mr  steal  your  girl  (  or  boy  !  )  ’  type  of  smooth  talker  because  that’s  what  he  does  best  .  he’s  wildly  charismatic  and  has  a  very  strong  habit  of  saying  things  he  doesn’t  mean  in  order  to  get  what  he  wants  .
his  emotional  and  romantic  stunting  mostly  stems  from  him  purposefully  putting  up  walls  that  he  makes  nearly  impossible  for  people  to  break  down  .  after  the  ugly  ending  to  his  engagement  (  and  joining  the  cast  of  exposed  )  ,  christian  has  shut  himself  off  from  others  not  only  for  his  image  ,  but  because  he  simply  can’t  deal  with  it  anymore  .
can  be  quite  the  meme  sometimes  .  never  truly  knows  what’s  going  on  ,  but  somehow  manages  to  put  two  and  two  together  .  has  a  really  loud  laugh  when  he  truly  finds  something  funny  ,  and  probably  radiates  himbo  energy  like  there’s  nothing  to  it  .  not  really  a  point  of  his  personality  ,  but  he’s  always finding  a  way  to  make  something  musical  ?  whether  it  be  drumming  his  fingers  ,  constantly  humming  a  tune  he  can’t  get  out  his  head  ,  or  randomly  singing  a  song  when  he  hears  a  word  from  the  lyrics  .
headcanons  .
christian  identifies  as  cis  male  and  as  non binary  .  this  is  mostly  due  to  the  fact  that  he  that  he  doesn’t  identify  to  any  gender  ,  but  he  acknowledges  that  he  has  been  socialized  as  a  man  .  he  is  fine  with  someone  using  he  /  him  /  his  and  they  /  them  /  theirs  pronouns  when  speaking  to  or  referring  to  him  .
very  much  so  romantically  and  emotionally  stunted  ,  therefore  he  bides  his  time  with  casual  sex  and  noncommittal  acts  of  romance  .  typically  can  be  found  slipping  out  of  beds  in  the  middle  of  the  night  ,  never  returning  texts  /  calls  (  or  blocking  the  number  entirely  )  ,  and  at  times  (  and  considered  to  be  his  worst  trait  yet  )  will  pretend  as  though  he  doesn’t  know  who  the  other  is  .
don’t  ask  him  about  technology  because  he  doesn’t  know  !  despite  being  twenty - seven  he  can  be  quite  ...  behind  the  times  .  the  only  reason  he  has  the  latest  gadgets  and  such  is  because  his  management  team  ensures  that  he  has  it  .  
his  stage  fashion  and  off - stage  fashion  styles  tend  to  differ  greatly  .  when  on  state  ,  christian  can  often  be  seen  sporting  the  typical  drummer  attire  :  half - opened  button  downs  ,  form  fitting  jeans  ,  vans  ,  and  looser  tees  .  in  short  ,  he  likes  for  his  shirts  to  be  loose  as  he  really  gets  into  playing  .  as  for  off - stage  ,  it  ends  to  be  a  little  more  refined  .  he  can  be  seen  wearing  a  touch  more  designer  and  he  likes  layers  even  when  it’s hotter  outside  .  still  an  avid  fan  of  half - opened  button  downs  ,  but  instead  of  jeans  ,  he’ll  replace  them  with  shorts  depending  on  the  weather  .
his  signature  within  the  band  is  often  dying  his  fair  various  colors  ,  with  the  most  common  being  pink  and  blonde  .  he  tends  to  get  a  perm  because  he  likes  his  hair  to  be  curly  /  fluffy  ,  but  a  slick  back  with  an  undercut  hairstyle  ?  chef’s  kiss  .
he  only  uses  a  variety  of  customized  drumsticks  and  he  cannot  see  !  do  not  ask  him  to  look  at  anything  when  he  first  wakes  up  because  chances  are  he  will  have  to  get  super  close  in  order  to  see  it  .  typically  alternates  between  his  glasses  or  contacts  .

Do you mind if I ask 11, 8 and 25?
(the post was strtd by peter n ended w me, Kris kdnkdn)
We don’t mind!
11 - first impressions of your fictives
Woah, I don’t know who to answer this- mostly because I’m like, should everyone say their thing? Since you know, everyone has different perspectives? To keep the answer short, I’ll just say my point of view! And if anyone has specific people they wanna ask, you can ask again! Actually, starting now, if you guys want someone specific to answer you can say so!
So... I won’t state everyone, because there’s a lot of people, but I‘ll do the people I’ve talked to properly!
Chara - Scary and really serious, like, they don’t have to tell me anything I could totally just leave the room if they gave me a glare. Even if they’re shorter than me, they have this like vibe that tells you that they don’t mess around
Kris - I thought he’d be quiet at first, he didn’t move a lot, but then he was suuper welcoming and dragged me into a lot of stuff- honestly he really helped me into getting used to front a lot! It felt safer when he was around, especially in my first days
Mister Crowley - he looked really business-y, but I liked him. I thought he was cool, and then he ended up being one of my dads! I thought he’d be a more angry person, but he’d rather lounge on a sofa
Miss Toriel - she’s soft! And she’s such a good mom.. she’s so supportive of everyone and just wants everyone to feel safe and happy! She really cares
MJ - I won’t lie, I was like super weirded out, excited, and worried ALL at the same time. Like, I was just is she gonna be okay here, like is it gonna be weird? And then you know, she found out I liked her this whole time and I found out too I think, and I guess we’re.. together now?
Miss Undyne - very loud, super supportive, and i was afraid that she’d just supplex me if she wanted to. She kinda yells a lot- but to support you!
Frisk - finally, someone else who gets to be called “baby”!
Mister MTT - I was honestly really nervous to meet him.. I was the first person he talked to- and that fear of when new members say “oh I’ve been here a while now!” Is real. Then I saw Frisk run over to jump all over him and he was really cool. He’s super flamboyant and when he talks in the body, he still sounds like a celebrity! He really cares though, I think that’s awesome
Miss Fluttershy - she’s kind of like the show.. uh, I won’t lie, I was a little tired after the first few days..? because she was panicking almost the whole time for two days straight and the emotional bleed was pret-ty intense so we were kind of having a panic attack non-stop for a while..? After that was over, she apologized and was really nice about it! Also ponies are tall??? I’m 5’6 or something and I forgot how much taller horses are after I saw how tall she was- and that’s a pony- geez
Miss Tempest - Uh, pretty angry.. when she and Miss Fluttershy came to the system at the same time, they apparently got a flood of memories of recent events so.. it’s like they got. A little run through of what they were getting into- so Miss Tempest got a quick summary of everything and that’s what got her mad when we first met..
8 - Songs that remind your introjects of their source?
[content warning 4 violence, harm, vent music :,^)] [ps this part took so long 2 make Idk y mksksh]
Peter - I’m not sure.. but I guess I’d have to say old-ish music (especially upbeat ones)? Maybe like.. new wave? Uh, I don’t like just new wave but they remind me of my source a lot. But sometimes they’re a weird genre. I’m not sure why I like old-ish music a bunch, but the others think it’s because of my movies’ OST? And yeah, pf I agree. They just remind me a little of Uncle Ben- he introduced to some music as a kid. And it just reminds me of my room, hanging out with friends- good vibes
Sal - Rock and Metal, for obvious reason lol. Besides Sanity’s Fall (they’re in youtube, check it out) it’s those for sure. GOD, actually the other day, we were revisiting the Halo Theme song- specifically the Mjolnir version and [chefs kiss] oof [chefs kiss] so good. It yells my source vibes. Actually I have a playlist just dedicated to rock and metal, and all my playlists are public on spotify, so if you have the skill you can definitely find them- shouldn’t be that hard
Kris - TBH IDK,,, bc I like a lot of genres,,,,, b I g (besides the DR OST) I’d say mayb contmprry soul? Or neo contemporary soul? Actlly I’m thinking of different state of mind by kid bloom bc it reminds me of my room b like in a calm way? I named my playlist on chill music aftr that DKJDKJ. Uhhh most of the songs that remind me of my source dsnt bring that much good mmries :,^) but here’s som songs that remind me of source: Soda by Nothing But Thieves, Don’t Know What To Do by Ck9c [it’s undrtle b I rel8 except this is wht I feel twrds Asriel n not the othr way arnd, esp when I was new 2 the sys :^( ], Nervous by The Neighbourhood [like how ppl must hav felt abt me in my source/canon :,,,^) plus how I felt w the entity arnd,,,, lowkey accur8 it hurts KDJDKHDDBHM if it wasn’t a love song lol], Afraid by The Neighbourhood [OOF I rmmbr I listnd 2 this a lot when I was new, this was rlly source vibes <:^/ me @ the entity, more accur8 than Nervous tbh], You’re Somebody Else by Flora Cash [probs Noelle @ me], SRRY MINE IS SO LONG
Chara - (I’ll b typing these 4 thm bc they’re not rlly the best rn, a LOT reminds thm abt source/canon so I’ll just grab a handful of diff emtions JDKDJ n I wnt explain jst go nuts I g KDHDJ- Kris) Won’t Give Into Darkness by Ck9c (obv rsns), Love Like You by Rebecca Sugar, The Valley by The Oh Hellos, Back To You by Twin Forks, Dust Inside The Light by Florist, Everything’s Alrightby Laura Shigihara, Please Leave a light On When You Go by Britain Ashford, Two Slow Dancers by Mitski, Stuff Is The Way by They Might be Giants, Echo by Circrush, Brutus by The Buttress, No Culture by Mother Mother, Choke by IDKHBTFM, This is Love by ATC, If I Killed Someone For You by Alec Benjamin

Have I ever told you, you are like Dopamin? - CHAPTER 2 - Plastika
Master Post | Chapter 1
Author's note: Hello, hello! Welcome to chapter two 🙃 I hope you enjoy this one!
Word count (according to Word): 5334 words
✦♡✦♡✦♡✦♡✦♡✦♡✦♡✦♡✦♡✦♡✦♡✦♡✦♡
It’s 11 am. I am well rested, I’ve drunk my coffee, and I’ve done everything I needed to do – well at least according to my to-do list. I’m just so glad the meeting wasn’t early like yesterday. I hate to wake up early in the morning and I hate every and any interaction when I’m in a “half-sleep” state.
I walk up to the studio and notice it’s already open. Nace must have arrived earlier to open it.
Or so I thought.
I placed my stuff in the meeting room, and as I walking up to the recording room, I hear guitars, bass, drums, and even voices.
- “Waiting for the rain to wash away” – I heard Francisca’s voice – “Everything the shadow dancers say”.
They seemed to be singing “Carpe Diem”, so I entered the room where Todd was listening to them sing.
- “As we light up with the fall of dusk”.
- “We'll play our love against your hate” – Bojan kept it going while also playing the guitar - “Don't you count on us to let you win today”.
I saw her slowly waving at me.
- “Let me hear you say”!
- “We'll dance and play until the stars fade”. – both sang together.
-  Ah-ah – Jan would try to sing my back vocals.
- “Across the sky, we're writing our names”.
-  Ah-ah. – I also sang along, but they couldn’t hear me.
- “Got no regrets, we want it all”. – Bojan sang solo this time.
- “Got no regrets, we want it all”. – and she followed right after.
- “Won't count the hours 'til the sunrise”.
- “Got no regrets, we want it all”. – they truly sounded like a powerful duo with their voice and pitch matching so well.
- “Let's leave a mark before our goodbyes” – and they joined their voices together once more – “Because we're only fully alive this moment in time”. – and I just sang along with them from where I was - “No mountain we can't climb”.
- “We danced and played until the sun came” – and once more, it was just Bojan’s voice as the instruments quieted down – “Writing a story using our names”.
And slowly I saw him turning his head towards Francisca. He held her hand, smiling.
- “About a generation not afraid to seize the day”… - and it was all quiet.
When their eyes met, it truly felt like the song, from Bojan’s perspective, meant more than just a “party like crazy” song. From my perspective…it was different. The truth is that Bojan doesn’t sound the same when he sings in English…there’s something lacking there. And I think Francisca does bring up that something. Both their voices are very similar, and she does have a weaker control over it, sure. However, she excels in interpretation, especially in English…
- Nice. – Nace grabbed a bottle of water – I need to have a break.
- Kris! – she said putting her headphones down.
I walked into the room they were in. She was smiling at first, but quickly that smile vanished as she remembered our past interactions…
- Hey everyone! I can’t believe everyone actually got here early.
- Actually, you are the only one late. – Maček said while picking up his lighter.
- Wait, what?
- We started two hours ago… - she said.
- Why am I the only one who doesn’t know about this? Again?
- Wait, you are telling me you are not in the group chat? – the cat boy said.
- I am… Did you kick me out of the SSF group chat!?
- No, I mean the Joker Out group chat on WhatsApp.
- We have a WhatsApp group now?
And at that moment I heard a notification from my pocket. I looked at my phone and saw: “Douch bag from TikTok has added you to ‘Collab’ group”.
- I might have forgotten to add you – said the Douch Bag, Bojan.
- Very funny…
- Oh, so that’s why I couldn’t save your number. – Francisca said – I just assumed you had me blocked. – I sure as hell can block her now.
- What were you guys doing? – I asked Nace since both Jure and Jan seemed to be out of the room.
- We were trying to figure out her singing key and rhythm.
- We don’t need to change a lot since her voice pitch is very similar to Bojan’s. They both seem to sing in similar keys.
- We were experimenting with Carpe Diem since it’s a song that she can sing well pretty much with no problems. – Nace was back to speaking Slovenian to me, so I looked at the couple who seemed to not be paying attention to what had been said – It’s just easier to experiment this way. You can play now. Bojan was just filling in for your position.
I walked up to those two and grabbed Bojan’s guitar.
- This is mine now.
- What?
- I’ll have it now. – I smiled at him – I’m the guitarist, after all.
- Oh, yeah. Sure, man. – he gave me the guitar and went towards Nace – I’m going outside. Wanna join?
- Yeah, no problem.
- And you? – he asked Francisca.
- I’m fine. I would rather not have to inhale the smell of smoke right now.
Both of them laughed as they left.
I was fidgeting with my rings and hands, and every time I played a cord, the sound just wouldn’t come out…
- So… - she said as she sat down.
But then she stopped. She started rocking in her chair with no idea of what to say. I tried to get the guitar the way I wanted but instead, I only got more nervous because nothing was going how I wanted. Eventually, I actually let a grunt out. That is the second time it has happened when I was next to her. Her stare alone can be pretty annoying.
She looked nervous as if she wanted to say something.
- What?
- I didn’t want to say anything…because you surely know more than I do…but…
- But what?
- Your guitar is unplugged. – I looked at it and I saw it – When you grabbed the guitar, the cord fell.
- Are you shitting me? – I sighed.
- That’s why, no matter how much you raised the volume, it was not working as it should.
- Thanks…I got that. - I resigned.
- No problem… and…
I looked at her.
- Nothing…
- What?
- It’s really none of my business but… you really have beautiful hands…
- And?
- As someone with small hands, I really like them. Also, I like to draw! And hands really do provide some of the best shapes in art.
- You draw?
- Yeah…I could draw you someday…
- I see you two get along. – Matej’s voice entered the room.
- Well, do we now? – She turned to me.
- I wouldn’t say that. – I said sitting down as well.
- I know Bojan is kinda “taking care” of her, but you know you are the boss in this band.
- I’m not exactly the “boss”. Nobody is.
- And I’m not exactly being “taken care of”. – she cringed at the thought of it – I’m my own person and adult. I would rather not be taken as a baby just for being slightly younger, thanks.
- Sorry about that. – he apologized to her - I’m going to call the rest of the boys. – and just like that he was gone.
- Ah, sorry. I was rude again. – she told me as she took a sip of her water.
- You weren’t exactly rude, just stating what you think.
- Yeah, but I never know when to shut up…honestly. I don’t understand much about social cues…
That seems funny. I thought she had this strong character and knew exactly what she was doing. So…she is just winging it? I guess that makes sense, putting a character on should be easier for her…But it also makes it harder for me to understand and connect with her…because I don’t know who she is. And I don’t know if I’m ready to go through something like that again. Knowing someone who doesn’t want to be honest, but instead prefer to act and put on layers of masks…
- Do you… - but before I could ask anything, I was cut off by the sound of the loud but short guy we all know and love.
- Are we ready for more!? – he said enthusiastically.

I had Fran next to me…we were both looking for some inspiration, but it’s not easy if no one actually has any idea of what to do…
- I have an idea! – Fran broke the ice after a while of being stuck coming up with a concept.
- I’m all ears. – I told her.
- We want a love story, right?
- Yeah.
- Why don’t we spin a wheel?
- What?
- We spin a wheel with different options on what we want to do for the song’s concept and then we decide what to do.
- Where do you intend to get a wheel? – Kris asked her.
- Online, duh. – she smiled as she got her cell phone from her pocket – There are some templates where you just fill in what are your options, press “spin”, et voilà: you get a randomized answer.
- Let’s do that then! – I told her.
- First, “girl meets boy” or “boy meets girl”?
She wrote both options down and I placed my arm around her comfortably.
- Girl meets boy! – she announced.
- Oh my god, it’s us. – I bopped her nose and she smiled.
- Next, who falls first and the hardest?
The wheel spun once more, and the answer was clear:
- Holy shit, you like me? – I told her.
- Apparently, yes! – she said with a smile and with her hand on her chest.
- But where am I from? North, South, West, or East and central Europe?
- You are…
The answer was convenient:
- East and Central Europe. – I slapped my knee and, ironically, I said:
- Oh, what a coincidence. I know a guy like that!
- I’ll let you decide which country he’s from then.
I stretched my arms because of how offended I was by that question. He’s obviously from:
- Slovenia! – I told her, and she laughed.
- Okay, and the girl is from…- and the wheel spun.
- Ah, if it isn’t my favorite part of Europe: southern Europe. I personally believe she should be from Portugal, the capital of Spain.
- Shush! – she hit me lightly – You are this close to Slovenia becoming the capital of Croatia. – she said showing me her two fingers close to each other.
- That’s pretty and all, but uh… - Jan interjected – what about the actual story?
- Wait, I’ll write a bunch of tropes and see which one gets selected.
She copied and pasted the most popular music tropes onto the wheel.
- “Soulmates” … - Kris read the result out loud.
- Good or bad ending? – she said with a trickster smile.
- “Good ending”.
- That’s settled! – I announced by getting up and stretching! - It’s the beautiful story of a girl… - I ask for her hand, which she gives it – who came from a country bathed by the sun and the ocean to a beautiful country that borders the Mediterranean Sea.
- Slovenia has barely any coastline.
- A beautiful country nonetheless. – I help her get up like she was a lady – She meets a boy – I held her by the waist with one hand and with the other, I took her hand – who’s her soulmate and they fall in love.
She doesn’t directly look at me. Instead, she looked at the other members, in embarrassment, and held onto me as well. And after a dramatic pause, I finally let go of her hand and release a bit of her waist.
- I like the idea! – I said with assertiveness and in a funny tone. She laughed and hugged me sideways.
- Well, that was certainly dramatic. – she sat down again.
- Well, that’s what I live for! Drama! – I did some jazz hands which got her doing the same as me.
- Okay this is good, for you guys – Kris muttered – but lyrics aren’t really what is important right now.
- No… - she said – But now that we have a theme going on, we can research the topic. As a matter of fact…- she looked at me.
- Throughout the past months, the two of us have been talking a lot… and we have both shared songs that remind us of our cultures.
- So, we might have an inspiration for what the vibes of the characters are.
- So… - Kris noted – everything just fell into its place very nicely?
- It’s cool, isn’t it? – I showed some enthusiasm to that gloomy face of his.
But it seemed not to be enough. He has been like this since yesterday. He looks annoyed at how things seem to be going smoothly with Fran’s integration and possibly how quickly they are moving…. And he clearly wanted some time and space alone.
So, I did what any normal person would do.
I jumped on top of him and tickled him until he started hitting me with a pillow and we eventually fell on the drums’ cymbals.
- I HATE YOU! – Kris yelled as he laughed his ass off.
- I LOVE YOU TOO! – I was still on top of him. He tried to fight me off with his hands, which I grabbed and kissed him on the forehead.
I smiled and let my tongue out to mock him.
- ENOUGH! – Matej finally shouted at us. – Do you want to pay for damaged materials?
We looked around us as we sat on the floor, and we saw what we had just done. Everyone was very quiet after our storm… But not for too long… Nace and Fran were looking at each other, red as tomatoes, and they were trying to see who would burst out laughing first.
However, it was Maček the first who snorted. It was loud enough to break those two poker faces.
- “I LOVE YOU TOO” – Nace mimicked me – That was too good! - And the younger had already lost her shit and was laughing on the sofa.
Jan, on the other hand, was covering his face so that we wouldn’t see his expression, but I bet it was priceless. I smiled at Kris.
- Not my fault you have such a kissable face. – I told him in Slovenia since Fran was clearly busier trying to breathe.
I got up and Kris lightly slapped me in the butt as I walked towards the sofa. He barely managed to hit me - he was still gasping for air.
Matej and the whole crew were already fed up with us. So fed up that they had to call in lunch early so we decided to go out for a smoke break outside… It’s starting to get cold though and we’ll have to find an alternative to smoking in the studio since Fran is so sensible to the smell…
- Where do we go to eat today? – Juček asked after he let the smoke of the cigarette out of his lungs.
- Honestly, I’m not sure. – I told him, doing the same thing.
- Cya everyone! – Fran said rushing away from us.
- Where are you going?
- Having lunch with my friend! – she only stopped after reaching a safe distance from our “smoke corner”.
- Do you come back in the afternoon!?
- Obviously, you dumb-dumb ¡Nos vemos!
- What did she say? – Juček wondered.
- She said uh, that she’ll see us, in Spanish, right? – Jan waited for my confirmation.
- Yup.

The five of us walked up again to that tiny room we were in this morning. We would have to, once again, deal with being stuck and! With a small creature claiming to be a singer, also known as Francisca.
- I can’t believe you brought me to a sandwich place… - Nace complained
- But there were gluten-free options. – Bojan told him.
 - Yeah, but gluten-free bread is *not* the same.
- You are a big boy! – the small annoyance told him, in English, and hugged Nace’s arm – You need carbs!
- “You are a small boy! You need soup!” That’s what my grandma would have said. – and of course, the only one who would say that would be her, Francisca, who walked in.
Bojan immediately hugged her and, this time, he even went for two kisses on the cheeks.
- Two kisses? – I asked.
- Last time Bojan tried to go for three kisses we ended up kissing on the lips. – she pointed it out very casually.
- Do you just kiss twice in Portugal?
- Yup. – she shrugged – So officially, Bojan was the first person to ever kiss me. Even if accidentally.
- Also, she’s so bad at kissing people on the cheek – he mocked her.
- Hey!
- It’s true! You don’t know how to kiss on the cheek, and I find it hilarious. She’s like a child!
- You see why we don’t do it.  – she looked at me and pointed at him.
She ended up sharing the playlist both of them had worked on. And after some back and forth, we even start coming out with some sounds. We even decided to incorporate one extra instrument that Bojan knows how to play: the accordion. Apparently, it was a common sound found in both folklore songs that they had compiled. I personally don’t think the sound of the accordion fits our music style, and we still want to be very truthful to our music style. The problem is, Francisca is not attached to a specific music style, and she likes music experimentation so we also should incorporate that part, but we are struggling a bit with it.
- I have an idea… - she said – my “character” comes to Slovenia, right? What if she brought a sound with her? It doesn’t have to be an instrument.
- Go on… - Bojan told her.
- For example, there’s stuff that reminds me of Portugal, certain sounds such as the guitar, like I told you. – she looked at Jan that nodded back at her – now imagine the sound of her footsteps when she meets the boy. In Portugal, we have this thing called “Portuguese Calçada”.
She pulled up her phone to show how the pavement of some sidewalks is done in Portuguese culture. Different black and white rock squares composed the shapes and drawings on the floor.
- It’s very pretty. – Jan told her.
- Yes, but it’s an endangered art. It’s too dangerous for people that aren’t used to walking on them and don’t expect holes in the floor. Or when it’s raining! This rock is super slippery. Now, see this.
She showed us some shoes with flower patterns sewn onto them.
- These are some shoes we use in typical folklore, there are different types of shoes and materials, but the traditional ones were in wood.
- So, what you are saying is…? – Jan was nearly asleep from the long explanation.
- Imagine the “wind” brings the sound of these shoes hitting the mosaic on the floor. It would be a really good repercussion sound.
- Took you that long just to sa- I was going to make a snarky comment, but I was stopped by our loud “leader”.
- ¡Maravilloso! – Bojan told her.
- ¡Muchas gracias, Bojan!
- Aren’t you Portuguese? – I told her – shouldn’t you refrain from speaking in Spanish?
- You aren’t the only ones allowed to speak multiple languages, obrigado.
We kept listing a bunch of noises and possibilities, Bojan and Francisca thought too much alike…even behaved similarly, she was just a bit shyer. When one cracked a joke, the other one had the perfect quote to complement it. When one was stuck, so was the other, and whenever one needed a break, so did the other. These two morons share a brain cell.
I thought that was just too funny. So, I let out a little snort and everyone looked at me.
- Are you okay? – Bojan asked as a grin formed on his face – What’s so funny?
I noticed the staring and decided to compose myself.
- I was sneezing. – I ahem to get my voice back to being firm - But I agree, a break sounds nice.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah, sure, man. – and I coughed some more – I’ll just not go outside right now. It’s a bit cold.
- Do you have a cold? – I noticed everyone starting to talk to me in Slovenian, as I tried my best to stay in English.
- No, I am fine. Just need to eat something.
- Me too. – Jan put down the guitar - I’m starving.
Everyone got up and we all went towards the vending machine to get some snacks. Nace had to stick to the ones he brought from home. Afterward, the guys left to smoke, and it was just me and Francisca in the room, once again.
We didn’t talk for a solid minute. She had her earphones plugged in – as if we hadn’t already listened to enough music and sounds in the past couple of hours – and wrote a lot on her cellphone. Even so, from time to time, I would catch her looking at me. Eventually, I asked.
- Okay, who are you texting?
- What? – she said with a confused face as she unplugged her earphones.
- Don’t pretend you didn’t hear me. You are probably texting someone you like, and you don’t want me to tell Bojan that you are seeing someone else.
- What are you talking about? – she still had that same expression of pretending that she doesn’t know what I’m talking about.
- Come on, at this point, everyone knows you two have been dating in the past couple of months. If you are cheating on him, you can tell me, and I’ll make sure to tell him for you. I just don’t want you out there breaking my friend's heart like that.
- What!?
- Come on…You wouldn’t talk so casually about an “accidental” kiss, or even behave so alike if you two do if you weren’t dating. You might not realize this because you never had a relationship before, but cheating hurts. Either that or you are just a big “pick me” and are making everything possible to be the perfect partner for Bojan, which, if you are here for that, you might as well have not come. We don’t need an actor playing a character, we need someone focused, and right now you are just slowing us down!
- Comes merda às colheres ou nasceste assim? – she said it with her hand in her head seriously getting angry at me.
- What?
- It means “Do you eat shit with spoons or were you born like that!?”
- Didn’t you say you like people telling you what they are thinking!? Why are you so rude?
- YOU ARE BEING RUDE! I am not dating Bojan! Bojan is helping me out every step of the way. And you? Ever since I stepped foot here yesterday, you have been throwing me shade with snarky comments, side-eying me, and constantly tearing me down and sometimes straight up excluding me. If you want this done in time, be a fucking professional and grow up!
Wait…They are not dating…? And I’m the one being rude? I’m the one excluding her? I don’t think I had realized that…If anything I thought I was the one being excluded. Her bright personality seemed to be shining on top of everyone else’s, and her “narcissistic gentleness” seemed more like an act than her own feelings…but if that’s so…why do I see truth in her eyes right now…?
I had no idea she felt that way. She felt the same as me.
- I’m sorry…
- Well, you better be! – she sighed - I’ve been trying to get along with everyone. And it’s frustrating that no matter what I do, you still treat me like this…
She went silent for a moment...
- Sorry for bursting onto you like that… - she said plugging her earphones again – I understand that I’m hard to deal with, and I understand two days is too long for anyone to put up with my BS, let alone two months. I should have regulated a bit more my emotions. I’m sorry…
Silence again… but this time, I’m the one bringing in the sound.
- Do you need help with something…?
She looked at me…as if I finally said the right words…
- I… - she stopped and messed around with her hair – I’m just texting my friend…I’ll be fine…
- I apologize for making so much drama with you and Bojan… - I looked at the floor and fidgeted with the rings in my hand.
- No, it’s fine… - she said, also looking at the floor.
- I’m sorry I’m acting like a child. I’m an adult… - I sighed as I looked up to avoid a tear to get away from my eyes – I should know better by now that I shouldn’t mess around with other people’s lives and not make assumptions…
- It’s fine… - she kept saying, not actually listening.
- And I was rude…I’m sorry. – she was not listening to a single word of what I was saying. She was just disassociating.
I approached her and kneeled down to see her expression. Her eyes were red from holding back her tears and she started biting on her nails, which was hurting her…
- Hey… - I said as I grabbed both her shaking hands – What do you need?
She took a deep breath and finally let out a single tear. With her voice sulking she finally asked for what she needed.
- So, uh…my manager is going back to Portugal after this week. And I also only have a reservation for a couple of days at the hotel. I was hoping I would find an apartment to rent until January easily here, but I guess it’s just as hard as in my country.
- Can’t you stay longer at the hotel?
- Nope, every single one is booked in Ljubljana until after Christmas, and it’s super expensive either way. Sorry, I don’t make that much money. – she laughed, as more stray tears left her eyes.
- That’s why you were texting your friend?
- Yup. She – she breathed in a little bit, and she was starting to get calmer – she says I can stay at her home for a bit, but personally, I would feel bad because her parents don’t speak a word of English. – she smiled – Do you have a tissue?
I touched my pockets, but I couldn't find the ones I thought I had with me.
- Sorry, already took them away from you. – she said smiling and showing me the package.
- What!? How!?
- You probably have a hole in your pocket. That’s how. – she finished cleaning up her nose and face.
- Oh god, I really do have a hole in my pockets! – I said as I found the motherfucker.
- Let me see. – she said putting the tissues in my pockets.
- They are not just gonna fall out like that.
- I mean… if you move around, they probably will fall.
- Let me just- I was about to get up but before I could process it, a couple of arms were hugging me.
They were of a small person with a long green and white sleeve shirt. They had puffy short hair and the most beautiful brown eyes you could ever picture. That was brave of her…How come she hug someone with whom she was just angry at? Who mistreated her? I understand the whole “forgive and forget thing” …but she should really learn how to have some self-respect.
I wanted to say that…but it did feel nice to have her around me for once…
- Fran… - she let go of me and smiled directly making eye contact with me.
- Nice to meet you. – she told me, extending her hand – My name is Francisca, but you can call me Fran, like you just did.
I was hesitant at first, but I took her hand.
- You must be Kris, right? I really enjoy your music. I’m very glad I got the chance to talk and work with you.
I laughed awkwardly and then I finally accepted it: this is the true way we first met. Eye to eye, no pretending to care about each other, no bickering…
- Yes, I’m Kris. And I hope this collaboration sails smoothly.
She smiled a lot. She was for once looking at me brightly. She was looking at me as someone who actually took her into consideration. She was looking at me as someone meaningful in her life. I hope I’m looking at her in the same way…
From the entrance, I heard some claps. We both looked at the door, and everyone had already returned.
- Whoaw, that was beautiful. – the author of the claps, Nace, said – Bojan is crying.
- No, I’m not. – he tried to wipe away a couple of tears that were running out of his eyes – it’s the cold!
- Think fast! – I told him.
I threw at him the tissue packet, only for it to hit his face and then land on his hands.
- You deserved that for eavesdropping.
- We weren’t here for too long actually. – Juček said as he was doing pull-ups in the doorframe.
- We came in when she was already crying. – Jan walked towards his guitar – So, uh, you need a place to stay?
- Well, I’ll have to find something, yes. – she said still cleaning her face.
- Bojan – Jan called for him – Don’t you have a spare room in your house?
- Yeah, I do. – then Bojan redirected his attention to Francisca – You could totally sleep there, if you are okay with it. I live with Martin, but he’s studying most time. – he crossed his arms – If I sleep on the sofa, my room should be available. Free of charge.
- But I could never do that! – she protested – If I were to go live with you guys, first you’d have to ask Martin. Second, I’m not using your room! It’s yours! I would sleep on the sofa. And third, I can’t stay there free!
- If you insist a lot, I might make you do my laundry.
- Yes, me messing around with a washing machine in Slovenian makes a lot of sense. – she looked at him with a tired look.
The lovebirds debated back in forth for a while before settling on Francisca staying at Bojan’s house until the end of this journey.
And once again, I had that annoying feeling in the back of my head. About this whole collaboration, about Bojan and Francisca’s relationship…why do I despise her? Or do I? I don’t think that’s it… I think I just don’t like all the attention she gets.
Honestly, I would think as an adult I would already have my emotions all sorted out, but, man, I’m a wreck.

After note: I actually hate to write Kris 😅 at least bitchy Kris like in these first two chapters. Maybe because he's the one I can predict the least out of all the boys. It's hard for me to read that boy (cough cough I just have a crush on him lol Cough cough).
Btw! Franciscas are usually called by Chica or (more recently) by Kika, not Fran. Anyways, in Spanish, "Chica" means "girl". Just thought you'd like to not that info :)
