#sort of? more like a scene recreation with my MC lol

[edmunderson]

BLACK: I feel like... I joined EVO too hastily. I wanted to actually do something with my life. But I feel like destruction follows me everywhere I go.

BLACK: I don't know why I thought this time would be different. I don't know why I thought... I could help anyone at all. People get made different. I'm not some fucking hero.

BOSTON: You've helped me...

BLACK: That... that comes naturally to me, at least.

⭐️ and uhhhhhhhhhhhh before sunrise? i can’t pick a scene so just tell me anything i love that piece

anonymous said: director's commentary on before sunrise pls!!

the people have spoken !!

[before sunrise]

so where to begin... I have a very distinct memory of watching the movie and thinking that it would be the perfect piece to recreate as a fic. probably because the movie is so..... plotless (?). and the film is really just these two people talking for an entire night and getting to know each other. idk I just thought (and still think) it was such a cool story with such an interesting delivery method. obviously the two characters are strangers but the things they talked about were so deep and so personal, the entire thing kind of felt like a dream. which is something I wanted to do myself.

and something I realized after having written this piece, is that this movie and one day (which I’ve also written a fic based off of) are quite similar. okay not they’re not all that similar, but in my head they’re the same! mainly in the sense that the most important part of both films is the dialogue between the two characters. they’re both such character based stories which is telling about the sorts of stories that I enjoy writing.

—

anyways as I watched the movie, I started thinking about who would work well as the kb (kpop boy) (one of the options was Joshua from svt, fun fact) and I ultimately ended up choosing kevin from tbz but in all honesty I don’t remember why LOL. either way, he works so well for this story. I also feel like if anyone were to do something as crazy and as insane as asking a stranger to wander around some european city with them for an entire night, it’d be him. he’s described himself as an awkward social butterfly so it just works perfectly.

usually when I write fics I don’t worry too much about how close the kb character is like the actual person (cause obviously i don’t know them but it’s also a personal/stylistic choice for me) BUT that was not the case with before sunrise.

for this piece I really wanted kevin to be the character and adopt some of his mannerisms that you see on screen. for example, the bit right after they get off the train, where it’s just awkward between them, I wrote that with Kevin in mind. and obviously the Beyoncé bit. and also just how random the conversation is. (obviously this is speculation) but I do feel like he’d be the type of person to have randomly deep thoughts and just speak them out loud. and.... idk where I was going with this but yEAH.

I mention all this because I’ve considered many times rewriting this piece for another group, but the idea always falls flat because who else but kevin from the boyz would work in this story you know?

—

okay so now about the actual piece:

the first conversation mc and kevin share on the train but before they move to the different car, is really odd to me, but i did that purposefully. the way the two characters started talking in the movie was very abrupt and felt super awkward to me. as the movie continued, i realized that the charm of the two characters was how awkward and like helpless they sort of appear. which is also just nice to see on screen, life is way more awkward and choppy than books and movies tend to portray. so that’s the reasoning behind the very first conversation kevin and mc share.

and this same line of reasoning is also what lead to the very awkward moments between kevin and reader immediately after getting off the train. in my head, both characters are just thinking: ‘what now?’

—

so the part in the art museum is one i like a lot and was inspired by one too many web weaving posts about ghosts and also by these paintings. the first one is by anne magill whose art i absolutely adore and the other one is from this 

—

i really love the scene in the record shop, its one of my absolute favorites, and moon river and il mondo were very carefully selected to be two of the songs they listened to. there’s a gifset i saw with commentary from the actors on filming that scene, and it just seemed like such a special and intimate moment between the two and so i really wanted to incorporate that somehow into the fic. 

—

another thing! in the movie the female character is a bit more of a hopeless romantic and the dude is more skeptical about love, but for the fic i decided to switch those two roles. so kevin is very optimistic about love while mc is more cynical. 

—

(im looking through the piece to see which parts i have comments on) but i just really am in love with the conversation the two of them share. it’s so existential and oddly deep for a pair of strangers, but again, that’s the charm of this story.

these two have nothing to lose by telling the other about their deepest thoughts and worries, and so they do. like both characters are so burdened by life when they meet on the train, and throughout the night they both get the opportunity to let go of those burdens piece by piece and dump out their worries one by one. 

and ahhhh, i just adore the moments that are shared by them. 

at the time that i was writing this, i was feeling very existential about life and youth and love (could you tell lol) and i wasn’t really talking to anyone about it. so this piece turned into an outlet for me to dump out my thoughts and opinions about life onto. like the parts about happiness, soulmates, youth, marriage, and falling in and out of love are all MY thoughts and are all realization that were made by ME. so this piece is way more personal than it appears. just because the state of minds’ of kevin and mc and so similar to mine, especially at that time. i was basically turning conversations i had with myself into a story. 

and i think my favorite part about all of this in relation to how it plays out in the story. its sort of a fantasy of mine actually. not the whole hanging out with the stranger part but rather the conversation that they’re able to share with each other and how transparently they’re able to speak. since writing this piece, i have spoken to close friends and family about the thoughts that were really weighing on me back then, but sometimes when i talk to them it feels as if i’m talking to a wall. which sounds way more dramatic than i mean for it to be lol. i’m just very bad at expressing myself in conversation and words never feel like enough to convey how i’m feeling and where my head is at. and also, when you’re having a real conversation with someone, it’s human nature to interject with your own thoughts and worries. so that on top of everything else i mentioned, just makes me really long for the conversation that kevin and mc share through out the night. they both are just very good listening and they don’t dismiss one another (at least i don’t think they do) and they’re both just very open minded to the other. i wrote them this way unknowingly, but looking back, i really really appreciate this and this aspect to their dynamic cause it’s definitely not that easy in real life. 

—

ahh phone booth scene my beloved!! 

i don’t have much to actually say other than this part:

“Yeah, no. I was gonna say the same thing.” He nods solemnly, visibly gulping as if the words are hard to swallow

he was definitely NOT going to say the same thing

—

okay also the entire part in the park.... everything i said before is a lie THAT’s my favorite part of this piece

i have nothing more to say but i’m sorry this got so long omg 

send me a directors commentary ask

Welcome Home, My Love ❤️

Dating Kojuro as a Modern Girl

One of the things that I love from Love Scramble is that you can imagine any silly scenario and it’s okay coz MC is a girl of our time while these lords are guys out of their time, and silliness ensues. So In addition of giving, in my opinion, the sexiest Kojuro CG to date, LS’s latest ranking prize card gives us a glimpse of what it is like to be dating Kojuro in modern times, sans reincarnation.

In this story, Kojuro, Ieyasu, Yukimura and Kyohei represent Shields in a joint investigation with Noir, which is represented by Will and Goto. The site is at onsen town, really this is just an excuse to have them all together in a ryokan within a proximity of an onsen, ahahahahah.

They arrive at the onsen town and it is breathtakingly fiery red with all the Momiji trees. Walking this beautiful stretch MC noticed Kojuro looks troubled and lagging behind the others. MC asks what’s wrong and Kojuro sheepishly tells her that he felt guilty having all this without Masamune.

MC thought Masa was on another assignment (really, he prolly just want to hang out with Kouta and do some boyband thing without his Oldman, maybe). MC suggests taking pictures of all the wonderful things he sees to show Masamune later.

Kojuro: Photographs?

Mc realized that while Kojuro is used to some aspects of modern life, he’s not used to actually using these modern technologies. Shields Corps 3 actually gave Kojuro a smartphone for his birthday last year. She showed him how to take pics with her smartphone but Kojuro says he’s not used to handling it so MC offered to take pics for him instead. Kojuro was glad.

Cue a scene where she shows him pics on screen and he looms over her so close (and SO HANDSOME) and how his breath tickles her ears.

When they got to the shopping district, Ieyasu excuses himself, saying his feet are tired and he’s going back to the ryokan. Yukimura and Kyohei go their own way and MC is left with Kojuro. They go to a gift shop, shopping for Masamune (Kojuro) and the entire corps (MC).

MC asks the cashier of a sightseeing place nearby and he told her of a park. They decide to go there. Kojuro ends up carrying MC’s shopping bags cos she’s handling the map (and at one point, holds her from falling into the mud, because OF COURSE). When they thought they’re lost, they arrived at a beautiful lake.

MC is overjoyed and they hang out for a bit, taking more pics. And MC spotted a turtle (LOL, thanks for the easter egg, Voltage) and took its pic for Kojuro, who is amused.

They found a shrine and hang out for a bit before Kojuro suggests they make a move because it’s sundown soon. On the way from the shrine they encounter a couple, excitedly chattering that this shrine is a shrine for a married couple (OF COURSE) and legend has it and when a man and woman go there together, their fate will be intertwined.

MC is troubled and apologized to Kojuro for taking him there.

Kojuro: Because of the legend? I don’t mind (CUE KILLER SMILE)

MC blushes.

Kojuro: Unless you do?

MC blushes furiously: It’s not that…

Kojuro: Then maybe we’ll see if the legend is true…

And lo behold it was dark already so Kojuro takes MC’s hand to keep her from falling.

They arrive at the inn and MC is a bit sad that their time together is ending. They have dinner with the others, including the Noir team.  

and later they move to the recreation room where Will and Kyohei have a ping pong match and Kojuro with Goto. Afterwards they go for a soak in the onsen. On the way back, MC meets Kyohei, who invites her to a drinking session with the guys. MC does want to see Kojuro again but decides she will chill out in her room for a bit and join them later.

In her room, she rewinds the day spent with Kojuro again, feeling giddy. But when she wants to browse all the pics they took, she couldn’t find her phone. She searched for it, panicking. Then she bumps into Kojuro on the corridor, who joins in her search.

They go to the receptionist, but he says no one has returned a smartphone. MC is sad, especially since Kojuro wants to show those pics to Masamune. Kojuro tousles her hair, saying don’t worry, let’s trace the day’s event. When do you last use it.

MC remembers snapping pics of their fabulous dinner, then… the recreation room! They went there and lo and behold, MC’s phone is lodged between the sofa cushions. MC is overjoyed and apologises to Kojuro for being a trouble.

Kojuro says no trouble, he was just about to join the other for a drink. Mc says she should probably join them soon too, since she said so to Kyohei. Kojuro suggests if she wants to get changed first maybe and offers to escort her to her room.

MC is a bit puzzled but accepts the invitation because she wants to spend more time with him. In front of her room, not wanting to end their time together, she steels herself and asks.

MC: Would you like to come in for a tea?

Kojuro looks surprised for a bit.

BUT HE DECLINED. I SCREAMED.

Gently. BUT STILL!

MC goes in and sort of internally screaming and mopes a bit because she feels REJECTED . (ME TOO GURL! ME TOO!)

But then she saw in the mirror that in her panic of losing her phone, her yukata is completely askew. Like she’s not at all decent, y’all. Flustered, she realizes that’s why Kojuro suggested she freshen up first. Fixing everything, she joins the guys.

She feels awkward though because she’s become extremely aware of Kojuro and the sting of his earlier rejection still lingers. She thought maybe the shrine legend was not true afterall. Then after few drinks,

Kojuro: Would you like to get some air?

Surprised, she doesn’t say no. So Kojuro takes her hand and brought her outside, to the courtyard, which is gorgeously lit with lanterns, underneath the starry skies. MC squeals and she whips out her phone to take pics when Kojuro stills her hand.

Kojuro: Can this just be just for the two of us?

MC blushes. Yeah, absolutely. She doesn’t know how to contain herself. She feels giddy because Kojuro always thinks of Masamune and it’s wonderful for him to be wanting something for himself for so long. Then she confesses that the reason she was so panicked when she lost the phone was not just because Kojuro wants to show those pics to Masamune, but because all the memories of the day they spent together was there.

Kojuro says that he doesn’t want their day to end yet, that’s why he brought her to that courtyard. Emboldened by the drink she asked then why did he reject her invitation earlier, she was sad.

Then Kojuro blushes.

Then he says that she is important to him, that’s why he didn’t want to come in to her room that time. He’s planned to show her the light show anyway, He apologises if he gives off the wrong impression

Everything clicked and MC’s is on fire!

Okay, maybe my Japanese isn’t that good and I could misunderstand BUT in here, I think MC realizes what she did. Kojuro took her invitation as something less than pure (HAHAHHAHA, OH WELL A GIRL CAN TRY, but really I’m not sure if the fact that they come from times centuries apart played a part but this is hilarious, also I give kudos to bold MCs). So here he’s saying that it’s not that he’s not interested but, let’s take it slower maybe. I dunno.

Anyways, but after that, escorting her back to her room, he does ask if he still could get that drink (LOL, the sake, maybe?). And they end up drinking together, viewing the Momiji (well, at least he does, MC is too busy staring at his gorgeous clavicles and the skin peeking from his yukata).

Pouring him some drink, she wonders if the shrine’s legend is true after all.

(I hope she wakes up with him the day after hahahah)

[mistakemessenger-imagines]

What about the RFA and Unknown and V finding out that MC has a career in the arts (author, artist, actor or something like that?) @saeranlover

Lol it’s been like 5,000 years since I’ve done a request, here you go bbies

Yoosung:

It was always a lingering thought in Yoosung’s mind

The thought always came randomly, but sometimes he swore that he  recognized your voice

Like the one time you yelled “Come at me!” at a friend who was teasing you and he just froze for a second to think about why it sounded familiar

It wasn’t until one day he was testing out a LOLOL character he’s never played before and she screamed out a line of dialogue before her attack

And suddenly he heard your voice behind him perfectly recreate the line

He turned around to see you cheekily grinning from your place on the bed

But it was wiped off your face soon enough because baby boi just pounced you into a big hug

“MC WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME YOU VOICED A CHARACTER IN LOLOL I WOULD’VE PLAYED AS HER MORE OFTEN IF I KNEW.”

You giggled as he rapidly asked you other things you voice acted in and gawked when he recognized the other characters you’ve voiced in games and cartoons

He’ll shyly ask you to reenact his favorite lines or scenes and his inner fanboy will show

Yoosung’s never really been into the behind the scenes stuff but he already somewhat was a fan of yours before so he’s basically dating his favorite VA

Silly lil’ peanut is gonna ask for your autograph on his merch of the characters you’ve voiced

Jaehee:

She found out during one of your nights in

You were in the kitchen preparing the snacks while Jaehee sorted through the set of musicals the two of you had rented for tonight (you finally convinced her that watching ‘Promiscuous Jalapeno’ for the 8th time in a row was a little much)

Once that was all said and done, you cuddled up to Jaehee while the movie started as she fed you popcorn

Oh crap, you recognized this movie

You actually got the part of the main dancer in this film (it was your typical dance batte film)

You somewhat never wanted her to find out  that you were an actor/dancer in fear of always being compared to Zen

Once your character was introduced, Jaehee’s eyes squinted a little at the screen before gasping and shaking your shoulders

“MC, MC, IS THAT YOU?”

“U-uhm nooooo...?”

“Wait, why would you keep this secret from me?”

After explaining your reasoning as to why, she just pulled you into a tight hug

“I’d never compare you anyone else, I love you just the way you are, famous or not!”

After watching the movie, she put aside the time to scour the internet for every performance you’ve been in and is about to be the proud owner of all your merch

jaehee please no that was our grocery money

Zen:

“lolol zen have you seen mc’s latest cover?”

“Cover? What’re you talking about?”

“the one on her youtube channel???”

“...”

“you do know what she does for a living, right??”

After Seven endlessly mocked Zen for not knowing what his own girlfriend did for a living, Seven graciously provided the link to your Youtube channel

Zen then proceeded to spend the next 3 hours of his life going through

your entire channel

He knew that you liked to sing and sounded like an angel but this

This is something extraordinary

You actually made a living doing this and he never even knew!

 He finally made his way up to your latest cover (which was uploaded about a week ago), and HO L Y  C R A P

It was the song he’s practiced at home for months on end for a musical he recently just starred in!

When you get home that night, you’re bombarded with compliments and questions (mostly compliments)

You explained that you never recorded around him because you were afraid that he might’ve thought you were going to use him for popularity

“Babe, I know you would never do that NOW WILL YOU PLEASE DUET WITH ME--”

Guess who has the best mashup cover of ‘Butterfly’ now

Jumin:

Coming home a few hours early was indeed a rare occurrence for Jumin

Usually when he came home, you were instantly there to greet him with a hug and kiss

He called your name, but there was no response, just a faint typing sound

After hanging his coat on the coat hanger, he began walking towards the noise, his hands already working on loosening his tie

“Ah, here you are, my love,” he said upon entering the officeroom

“Jumin, you’re home early,” you smiled, letting your husband wrap his arms around your shoulders and resting his chin atop your head

“The office had to close early for some renovations,” Jumin explained, “but I’m more interested in what you’re working on.”

“I’m working on my next book!”

The surprised look on his face made you remember that you never brought it up to him before, but now is as good as time as any to explain

Jumin seemed genuinely intrigued as he listened to your explanation on your book series, which was apparently very popular

When you finished, he asked if you could lend him the first addition, as he did enjoy reading in his spare time

And soon enough, he was hooked

He’d have long talks with you over dinner on how he wasn’t expecting a plot twist or how well you wrote your characters

Or about how you should hurry and finish the next book because you left him on a cliffhanger

707:

He’s known since the background check that you had a job in digital art but he tucked that away in the back of his head because there were too many other things happening at the time (eg the hacker, your sudden appearance, his emotions and job...)

It isn’t until one day where he’s been able to work for a few hours straight without you lecturing him about how he should take a break

So he got up from his chair, slapped his right leg a few times to wake it up, and ventured outside his office to find you

To no surprise, you were huddled inside in the bedroom, but this time with your drawing tablet in hand

“Hey Saeyoung,” you tiredly muttered, eyes still glued to the laptop screen

His eyes trailed to where you were looking and a look of mock hurt morphed on his face, “MC, how dare you draw a picture of another man!”

You stifled a laugh at your boyfriend’s dramatic tone, “Zen just asked me to draw some things for his website so I’m--”

“You should me drawing me instead! Here, I’ll even pose for you!” 

You regret even looking behind you, because Saeyoung was already stripping down to his boxers, need I remind you the pair with cat faces on them

“DRAW ME LIKE ONE OF YOUR FRENCH GIRLS.”

“SAEYOUNG PUT YOUR CLOTHES BACK ON AND GET TO BACK TO WORK!”

V:

Usually you were making some sort of noise in the house, but today you were oddly quiet

“MC? Where are you?”

“I’m in the living room,” you hollered back as he started making his way over, “Be careful not to bump my arm though.”

“What’re you doing?” he asked, taking a seat on the floor next to you

You explained that you liked paint and used it as a way to make some extra pocket money

V was very happy and excited to hear that you had an artistic career just like him

You were always delighted to describe the paintings to him, and you always did it with such passion

After awhile, he started to miss photography and he so badly wanted to see your work for himself

So he decided to get the eye surgery

Once he did, he was shocked at how much he can see your heart poured onto the canvas

You often went out into nature together and sit there together for hours to photograph/paint and enjoy one another’s company

You also loved painting some of V’s older photographs and he loved it and every single one is framed in the house

#artsycouple

The day you painted a picture of the sun and gave it to him, he cried

Unknown:

The first time Saeran ever walked into your room, his eyes immediately darted to the big, colorful collection of sticky note pads on your desk

He picked one up, noting that every one had a slightly different drawing than the others, “What’re these for?”

“Oh, I’m an animator! I like to use these sticky notes when I’m bored.”

He never got to watch cartoons as a child so this was all new to him

Watching you peacefully work is very, very soothing to him, to just watch the lines fill with color so smoothly

You even let him have some of your already drawn-on sticky note pads and he likes to flip through them when he’s nervous or needs to calm down when something’s bothering him

His favorite is the one you made for him where it goes “I love you, Saeran!” with a cute little doodle of a cartoony-looking you kissing his cheek on it

As mentioned before, he never got to watch cartoons or movies as a kid and he’s willing to watch the ones you’ve worked on

It always amazes him that you made what was on the screen and he loves it (he’s never said it out loud but it shows on his face)

He really enjoys the ones that are story-based rather than the nonsense slapstick ones (which is what Saeyoung enjoys, much to his dismay)

Seeing the childlike innocence in his eyes is heartwarming and you wouldn’t trade it for the world
