#the hawaii trip was unnecessary

Road trip to Airport with the GF group headcanons

A/n: I just feel like they deserve more stories all together so why not???

Warning: cussing

edit: i’m so embarrassed because hawaii is an island. pretend this is to the airport omfg 😭

THIS HAS BEEN EDITED

On the road:

-CHAOS

-like actual chaos no joke

-romans the driver (obviously)

-you’re sitting in the passenger seat since Roman thinks you’re the best to sit by in the car

-he also DEMANDS Mickey to be put in the back for obvious reasons.

-you can probably expect some arguments and other unnecessary drama on the road

-stu and billy sit next to each other (so un expected) and billy is not happy about it

-you can probably guess why

(1)-“Stu move your damn leg.”

(2)-“My legs not even touching you.”

(3)- “yes it is!”

(4)- “no it’s not!”

-then roman buts in

-“can y’all stfu? I can’t concentrate on the road with all that shit going on in the back.”

-do NOT I repeat do NOT give ethan, amber, quinn, stu, charlie or richie the aux or let them any where near the damn radio.

-unless you wanna hear weird/shitty music

-roman said that they’re banned from going near it ever again

-if you can drive roman may let you and him take turns driving (depends if you drive good to him or not)

-I feel like if any of the older GF comes (Debbie, Bailey.) they probably would drive separately because they know how the group gets when they’re all together…

-mickey saying shitty jokes when he gets bored

-amber and stu encouraging the shitty jokes

-stus ass eating up all the snacks

(1)-“who the hell ate up all the hot cheetos??”

(2)-“it wasn’t me!”

-has evidence all over his hands

-charlie showing weird ass videos he found on his phone to mickey

-has the damn volume all the way up

-roman buts in again

-“turn that shit down!”

-ethan may be one of the quietest in the car

-like he just sits there on his phone listening to music, starting out the window

-richie may bug him a bit

-you but in and tell him to stop bothering him

-stu thinks you’re sus

-quinn and amber arguing like every 30 minutes

-roman getting aggravated at them

-if you guys stop for a bathroom break be prepared for romans bickering

-“listen guys, no fucking around in the store we’re losing time here! Get in and get out.”

-stu buys all kind of weird snacks

-hopefully no one notices that they’re literally murderers

Hope you enjoyed this little drabble! I will make headcanons about us staying in a hotel plus when we’re actually in Hawaii!! ❣️

simon and stellas lore

heavily based off the hawaii pt ii album by miracle musical

(early summer) 

determined to impress his deadbeat father, simon sails off to hawaii on a fishing trip. he finds himself caught in a storm which destroys his ship and leaves him washed up on the beach with nothing but the clothes on his back. stella finds him and gets him help. the octangulas offer simon a place to stay, in return for working on the small family orchard.

(late summer now, simon and stella have established a relationship together)

the city holds a yearly ball to celebrate the end of summer. simon asks stella to go with him and she agrees. after a while they sneak out the back and run off to "their spot" 

(an abandoned stone lookout on a cliff, with a view of the ocean)

as they jog through the forest together, simon catches his foot on a small branch. not realizing her date is currently on the ground, stella keeps running. simon scrambles up and immediately starts yelling out her name. his shouts grow more frantic as he hears a scream in the distance. blood seeps from her chest as he finds her collapsed on the stairs of the lookout, a knife sitting not far from her body. he gives her one last quiet goodbye before running off to the local police station for help. the group of men follow him to the spot of her murder, and simon is detained as one of the officers notices the blood on his hands. 

uuruurgghhh the court stuff is boring but basically the evidence is stacked so high against simon that he decides to plead insanity for what he assumes will be a lighter punishment. he is sentenced to electro shock therapy (before anesthesia was common) and is to be shipped off back to the mainland of the states to spend the rest of his life in an institution. 

(mid/late winter)

simon escapes after months of enduring the torture of the asylum. by the time he got out, the electro shock therapy had done a number on him. he forgot almost everything about him or his life, including stellas death. he only knows that he longs for someone, and that someone is in hawaii. determined to find her, he steals a small wooden rowboat, planning to sail off back to hawaii to find her. 

with absolutely no plan or preparations, simon takes off in the dead of the night. his mental health worsens the longer he is alone at sea, considering hes slowly starving to death. 

(this next part is planned to dsism, down to the very second, but ill try not to be too wrapped up in their every move)

in the middle of the third night, simon hears the sound of the water stirring. lifting his head, he sees stella standing over the water, looking no different than the night of the ball. she reaches out her hand, and as he grabs it, he is suddenly in his suit. the feelings of hunger and worry wash from his body. he doesnt feel tired anymore, just at ease. they dance on the water, and slowly up into the clouds, where they reside happy in heaven together

the end :3

and just to clear a few things up:

-the story is set in the 1960s

(in the original ref sheet drawings it says 1940s but my dumbass forgot hawaii wasnt a state until 1959)

-i have 2 versions of my hpii story. the first one (this one) is less realistic and has a few unnecessary changes because i just decided i wanted to

the second one is my hpii movie concept ideas. the movie concept is pretty similar with 2 exceptions. 

1: its more realistic (stellas last name isnt octangula, the court system is more true to life ect ect)

2: it sticks to the album better 

-last thing to know is im dyslexic so pretty please ignore the grammar mistakes. because of the built in spell check, spelling isnt usually a problem, but i do sometimes overcompensate with my punctuation, so theres probably a few out of place commas out there.

How to Find the Perfect Vrbo Rental in Honolulu, Hawaii

Planning a vacation to Honolulu, Hawaii, is an exciting experience filled with dreams of pristine beaches, lush landscapes, and vibrant local culture. To make your trip truly unforgettable, choosing the right accommodation is key. For many travelers, a Vrbo rental offers the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and convenience. But with so many options available, how do you find the ideal Vrbo Honolulu Hawaii rental for your needs? Here’s a comprehensive guide to help you make the best choice.

Understand Your Needs

Before diving into the vast pool of Vrbo listings, take a moment to define your preferences and priorities. Consider the following factors:

Group Size: Are you traveling solo, as a couple, or with a group? Knowing the number of people in your party will help you narrow down options for rentals that comfortably accommodate everyone.

Location: Do you want to be close to Waikiki Beach, the bustling city center, or a quieter, more residential area? Honolulu offers a variety of neighborhoods to suit different preferences.

Amenities: Make a list of must-have amenities, such as a fully equipped kitchen, private pool, ocean view, or proximity to public transportation.

Budget: Determine your budget early on. This will help you focus on rentals that align with your financial plan and avoid unnecessary splurges.

Use Filters to Narrow Your Search

Vrbo’s search tools are your best friend when hunting for the perfect rental. Use filters to refine your search by:

Price Range: Set a minimum and maximum price to ensure listings fit your budget.

Property Type: Choose between condos, houses, apartments, or even luxury villas.

Amenities: Select specific features like air conditioning, Wi-Fi, or beachfront access.

Location: Use the map feature to pinpoint rentals in your desired area of Honolulu.

Taking advantage of these filters will save time and help you zero in on properties that match your criteria.

Read Reviews and Ratings

One of the biggest advantages of using Vrbo is access to guest reviews and ratings. These insights provide a clear picture of the property’s condition, the host’s responsiveness, and the overall guest experience. Pay attention to common themes in reviews—positive or negative—to gauge whether the property meets your expectations.

Communicate with Hosts

Don’t hesitate to reach out to property hosts with any questions or concerns. Whether you want to confirm the availability of specific amenities, inquire about check-in procedures, or ask for local recommendations, open communication ensures there are no surprises upon arrival. Friendly and responsive hosts often indicate a positive rental experience.

Consider Accessibility and Transportation

Honolulu’s attractions are spread out, so it’s important to think about how you’ll get around during your stay. If you’re planning to rent a car, look for Vrbo listings with dedicated parking spaces. For those relying on public transportation, ensure the rental is near bus stops or major transit routes.

Check Cancellation Policies

Travel plans can change unexpectedly, so it’s essential to understand the cancellation policy of your chosen Vrbo rental. Some properties offer flexible cancellation terms, while others may have stricter policies. Make sure you’re comfortable with the terms before booking.

Plan for Local Experiences

One of the advantages of staying in a Vrbo rental is the opportunity to live like a local. Look for properties in neighborhoods that offer easy access to local markets, authentic Hawaiian eateries, and cultural landmarks. Being immersed in the local atmosphere can make your trip even more memorable.

Compare Similar Listings

If you’ve found a rental you like, take a few minutes to compare it with similar listings. Check for differences in price, location, amenities, and reviews. This step ensures you’re getting the best value for your money.

Finalize Your Booking

Once you’ve found the perfect Vrbo Honolulu Hawaii rental, double-check all details before confirming your reservation. Verify the dates, total cost, and house rules to avoid any misunderstandings. After booking, keep a copy of the confirmation and host contact details handy for easy reference.

Conclusion

Finding the perfect Vrbo rental in Honolulu, Hawaii, doesn’t have to be a stressful process. By understanding your needs, using search tools effectively, and considering reviews, amenities, and location, you can secure a rental that enhances your vacation experience.

Planning the Perfect Summer Vacation: Travel Tips and Family Destinations

As the warm rays of summer sunshine beckon, the allure of a perfect vacation becomes irresistible. Families eagerly plan their getaways, seeking to create unforgettable memories. In this journey of discovery, travel tips for perfect summer vacation and destinations for family vacation in summer become essential guides. Whether you're an experienced traveler or embarking on your first family adventure, these insights will help you craft an impeccable summer escape.

Travel Tips for a Perfect Summer Vacation

Plan Ahead and Be Flexible Planning is the cornerstone of any successful vacation. Start by identifying your travel dates and booking accommodations early to secure the best deals. However, remain flexible with your itinerary. Summer is a peak travel season, and being adaptable can help you make the most of spontaneous opportunities or unexpected changes.

Choose the Right Destination Selecting the ideal destination is crucial. Consider factors such as climate, activities, and family-friendly amenities. Popular summer spots include beach resorts, mountain retreats, and cultural cities. Each offers unique experiences, so choose one that aligns with your family's interests and preferences.

Pack Smartly Packing can make or break your vacation experience. Create a checklist to ensure you have all essentials, including sun protection, comfortable clothing, and necessary travel documents. For family trips, include items that keep children entertained, such as books, toys, and games. Remember to pack light to avoid unnecessary stress and baggage fees.

Stay Hydrated and Eat Well Summer heat can be draining, so it's vital to stay hydrated. Carry reusable water bottles and encourage your family to drink water regularly. Additionally, prioritize balanced meals and snacks. Explore local cuisine, but also have healthy options on hand to keep everyone energized throughout your trip.

Embrace Technology Leverage technology to enhance your travel experience. Use travel apps for navigation, finding local attractions, and managing bookings. Social media can also be a great tool for discovering hidden gems and connecting with fellow travelers. Just remember to balance screen time with real-life experiences.

Prioritize Safety Safety should always be a top priority. Keep an eye on travel advisories and health guidelines for your destination. Ensure your family has travel insurance that covers medical emergencies and trip cancellations. Familiarize yourself with local emergency contacts and have a plan in place for any unforeseen situations.

Stay Environmentally Conscious Traveling responsibly is essential for preserving the beauty of our planet. Opt for eco-friendly accommodations, support local businesses, and minimize waste by using reusable products. Teaching your children about sustainable travel practices will instill a sense of responsibility and respect for nature.

Capture the Memories A summer vacation is a time to create lasting memories. Take plenty of photos and videos, but also immerse yourself in the moment. Encourage your family to keep a travel journal or scrapbook to document their experiences. These keepsakes will be cherished for years to come.

Destinations for Family Vacation in Summer

Beach Escapes Nothing says summer like a beach vacation. Coastal destinations such as Hawaii, Florida, and the Caribbean offer pristine beaches, water sports, and family-friendly resorts. Kids can build sandcastles, snorkel in clear waters, and enjoy beachside activities, while parents relax under the sun.

National Parks and Nature Reserves For families who love the great outdoors, national parks and nature reserves are perfect. Destinations like Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, and the Rocky Mountains provide breathtaking landscapes, hiking trails, and wildlife encounters. Camping or staying in rustic lodges adds to the adventure.

Cultural Cities Cities rich in culture and history offer educational and entertaining experiences for families. Explore the museums and landmarks of Washington D.C., the vibrant streets of New York City, or the historic sites of Boston. Engaging in local festivals and events can also provide a deeper understanding of the destination's heritage.

Amusement Parks Amusement parks are a hit with families of all ages. Iconic destinations like Disneyland, Universal Studios, and Legoland promise a world of excitement and fun. With thrilling rides, interactive shows, and themed attractions, these parks ensure a magical experience for everyone.

Mountain Retreats Escape the summer heat by heading to the mountains. Places like the Swiss Alps, the Rockies, and the Blue Ridge Mountains offer cool climates, scenic views, and outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, and fishing. Mountain retreats provide a serene environment for relaxation and rejuvenation.

Cruise Vacations Cruises are an excellent option for families seeking a variety of experiences in one trip. Cruise lines like Disney, Royal Caribbean, and Carnival offer family-friendly itineraries with activities, entertainment, and excursions. From exploring tropical islands to enjoying onboard amenities, cruises cater to all interests.

Educational Trips Combine learning with leisure by choosing destinations that offer educational experiences. Visit the Smithsonian museums in Washington D.C., the Exploratorium in San Francisco, or the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Educational trips inspire curiosity and provide valuable knowledge in an engaging way.

International Adventures For families looking to explore beyond their borders, international destinations provide a wealth of experiences. Discover the historical wonders of Europe, the exotic landscapes of Asia, or the cultural richness of South America. Traveling internationally broadens perspectives and fosters a global understanding.

By integrating travel tips for perfect summer vacation with carefully chosen destinations for family vacation in summer, you can create a seamless and enjoyable experience for the whole family. Here’s how to combine these elements for an unforgettable trip:

Research and Plan Together Involve your family in the planning process. Research destinations together and discuss everyone's preferences and interests. This collaborative approach ensures that the chosen destination has something for everyone and fosters excitement and anticipation.

Create a Flexible Itinerary While having a plan is important, allow room for spontaneity. A flexible itinerary enables you to adapt to unexpected opportunities or changes in weather. Balance structured activities with free time to explore and relax.

Prepare for the Journey Long journeys can be challenging, especially with young children. Pack a travel bag with snacks, entertainment, and comfort items. For road trips, plan regular stops to stretch and explore. For flights, check in early and choose seats that accommodate your family’s needs.

Engage in Family Activities Choose destinations that offer activities suitable for all ages. Whether it's building sandcastles on the beach, hiking through a national park, or enjoying a theme park ride, shared experiences strengthen family bonds and create lasting memories.

Stay Connected and Safe Keep communication channels open, especially when exploring large or crowded areas. Equip each family member with a way to stay connected, such as walkie-talkies or mobile phones. Establish meeting points and ensure everyone knows what to do in case of separation.

Encourage Learning and Exploration Turn your vacation into a learning adventure. Visit museums, historical sites, and cultural landmarks. Encourage your children to ask questions, take photos, and document their experiences. Educational travel fosters curiosity and enhances their understanding of the world.

Balance Adventure with Relaxation A perfect vacation strikes a balance between adventure and relaxation. While exploring new destinations is exciting, make time for rest and relaxation. Enjoy leisurely meals, unwind by the pool, or have a family movie night in your accommodation.

Reflect and Celebrate At the end of each day, take time to reflect on your experiences. Share highlights, funny moments, and lessons learned. Celebrate your journey together, whether it's through a special dinner, a family game night, or simply watching the sunset.

In conclusion, combining well-planned travel tips for perfect summer vacation with carefully selected destinations for family vacation in summer ensures a memorable and enriching experience for your family. By prioritizing safety, flexibility, and engagement, you create a summer vacation that not only meets but exceeds everyone's expectations. Embrace the adventure, cherish the moments, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

[shwoo]

This map has a lot of issues, so I spent an unnecessary amount of time fact-checking all the shows and where they're located. Places in "italicised quotes" aren't real places. Using the "town, state" format even for big cities to make things clearer. I know probably too much about American geography for someone who's never been there, and I still get confused.

CORRECT

Molly of Denali: "Qyah", Alaska Clarence: "Aberdale", Arizona South Park: "South Park", Colorado The Amazing World of Gumball: "Elmore", California Sit Down, Shut Up: "Knob Haven", Florida Squidbillies: "Dougal County", Georgia Lilo & Stitch: The Series: Unnamed locality in Kauai, Hawaii Napoleon Dynamite: Preston, Idaho Twelve Forever: "Bethune", Iowa Courage the Cowardly Dog: "Nowhere", Kansas Hoops: "Lenwood", Kentucky Bunnicula: New Orleans, Louisiana The Spooktacular New Adventures of Casper: Friendship, Maine Craig of the Creek: "Herkleton", Maryland The Loud House: "Royal Woods", Michigan The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends: "Frostbite Falls", Minnesota Ellen's Acres: A hotel outside Tonopah, Nevada Assy McGee: Exeter, New Hamspshire Kid Cosmic: Unnamed town, New Mexico Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: New York, New York Big Mouth: Westchester County, New York The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants: Piqua, Ohio Gravity Falls: Gravity Falls, Oregon Arthur: "Elwood City", Pennsylvania (confirmed by the show's official Twitter) Little Bill: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Family Guy: "Quahog", Rhode Island The Legend of Calamity Jane: Deadwood, South Dakota King of the Hill: "Arlen", Texas (Didn't even look this one up until I needed the city name) Beavis and Butt-Head: "Highland", Texas (The state wasn't made explicit until the 2022 movie Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe) American Dad!: "Langley Falls", Virginia Rick and Morty: Somewhere outside Seattle, Washington

CORRECT, BUT

The Owl House: "Gravesfield", Connecticut (Much more heavily set in Bonesborough in the Boiling Isles, which is not a real place, though a few episodes do return to Gravesfield) Steven Universe: "Beach City", "Delmarva" (The landmasses are a little different in the universe of Steven... Universe, and the state of Delaware doesn't exist, but an official map labels the body of water north of Beach City as Rehoboth Bay, which is a real bay in Delaware, and would put Beach City in the same location as the real-world Long Neck, Delaware) (RIP to everything south of Indian River Bay, though) Fetch! with Ruff Ruffman: Boston, Massachusetts (This is a live action kid's game show with an animated host, so I'm not sure it qualifies as an animated series) Infinity Train: North Branch, Minnesota (The show is set on a magical train that travels through an otherworldly desert. The main human character of the first season is from Minnesota, but she spends almost the entire season trapped on the train, and the other seasons follow different characters, and generally spend even less time on Earth) Futurama: "New New York", "New New York" (New New York City is explicitly built over the ruins of its real-world counterpart, and is basically New York But Futuristic)

IMPLIED

Rugrats: Unnamed city (All indications point to California) Garfield and Friends: Unnamed City (Garfield is very occasionally stated to take place in Muncie, Indiana, where its creator Jim Davis lives, but I don't know if the Garfield and Friends show ever brings this up. I don't think US Acres was ever given a location) Bob's Burgers: "Seymour's Bay" (Evidence points to New Jersey, but it's never made explicit) (I'm finding conflicting things on whether Seymour's Bay is the canon name or an out-of-universe nickname) Jimmy Neutron: "Retroville" (A Texas number plate is visible in the movie, and a line on a map showing a trip the characters take in one episode clearly starts in Texas. Otherwise, the state is never specified)

UNCLEAR

Recess: Unnamed city (One episode has the kids take the Arkansas Elementary School Achievement Test, which is the basis for it being put in Arkansas in this map. Coordinates given in another episode would put the school in Pennsylvania) Regular Show: "City" (A few things indicate California, including the state flag being visible in one episode, but other things contradict this and place it further east) Curious George: "City" (The location was never given in the books, but the show has a line that says that the airport the characters are currently at is in Chicago, Illinois) The Boondocks: "Woodcrest" (The comic strip is definitely set in Maryland, but the show has some indications early on that it's set in Chicago, Illinois, with the exception of an episode where the main characters fly back to Chicago to attend a funeral. Later episodes imply that the show is set in Maryland) The Chicken Squad: Unnamed locality (An episode about a lost phone implies that the show is set in North Dakota. I can't find much more than that) Harvey Girls Forever!: "Harvey Street" (One episode includes a view from space of a bright light on the street, but the location is vague, and looks more like Missouri than Oklahoma to me. A showrunner confirmed on Twitter that this shot did not mean the show was set in Kansas, and that the street is actually "located in the great state of… oops, out of characters!") Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood: "The Neighborhood of Make-Believe" (Disclaimer: I never saw Mr Rogers' Neighborhood because it's an extremely North American thing. But I think the title neighbourhood was literally supposed to be Fred Rogers' neighbourhood in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, while the Neighborhood of Make-Believe was always an imaginary place with no real-world counterpart.) Peanuts: Unnamed City (I'm not sure which Peanuts animated series this is on the map, but the comics never make the location explicit. The closest is a strip from 1957, in which Lucy shows off a trophy that names her "Outstanding Fussbudget of Hennepin County". That would place the setting in Minnesota, in or near Minneapolis. But a later strip from 1963 introduces a character named 555 95472, whose surname has been changed to his ZIP code. ZIP code 95472 is in Sebastopol, California, where Charles Shultz's studio was.) Hey Arnold!: "Hillwood" (There are a lot of indications that the series takes place in the US part of the Pacific Northwest, so Oregon, Washington or Idaho. And at the end of one episode, Helga and her mother are seen driving past a "Welcome To Washington State" sign when returning from out of state. But there are also some implications that it takes place in New York City, particularly with the architecture, and the way the school is numbered)

DEFINITELY INCORRECT

Sniz & Fondue: Unnamed locality (Only source on being located in Missouri seems to be an addition to the Wikipedia page in November 2006 with no edit reason given) Big City Greens: "Big City" (The show is based in part on the creators' childhood in rural Michigan, but the show itself never mentions a state.) (If Michigan gets Big City Greens, might as well give Alabama Phineas and Ferb for similar reasons. Give the south something.) Sheep in the Big City: "The Big City" (Only source on being located in Missouri seems to be an addition to the Wikipedia page in January 2010) with no edit reason given) Daria: "Lawndale" (The setting of the show is unclear, but it doesn't appear to be set in Texas. The setting is extremely urban northeast, in my opinion. In an interview, one of the show creators said that he thought of the setting as being a mid-Atlantic suburb, and gave Maryland and Pennsylvania as possible locations. The idea that the show is in Texas seems to be based on the show being a spin-off of Beavis and Butt-Head, but Daria's family explicitly moved to Lawndale from Highland at the beginning of the first episode.) Chalkzone: "Plainville" (Only source on being located in Wisconsin seems to be an addition to the Wikipedia page in November 2006 with no edit reason given)

OTHER POSSIBILITIES (not on the map)

-The Ace Ventura: Pet Detective cartoon is set in Miami, Florida, and has a lot more episodes than Sit Down, Shut up -The Beetlejuice cartoon is set in "Peaceful Pines", Connecticut, and has more episodes than the Owl House, as well as seeming to spend more time in the real world. -I don't know much about China, IL, but it is unambiguously set in Illinois, unlike Curious George, or the Boondocks. Has less episodes than either of those, though. -Soul Eater is set in "Death City", Nevada, and only has one less episode than Ellen's Acres, with double the running time. -If Big Mouth is a runner-up for New York, Archer should be too. Even discounting the seasons that moved the setting to Los Angeles, or Los Angeles but in the 40s, or a fictional Pacific Island, or space, it's got more episodes than Big Mouth. -The animated show set in the District of Columbia with the most episodes is either Our Cartoon President, or Freakazoid!, depending on how you define an episode. Couldn't find anything for any of the US's overseas territories.

quick lil sad lil rant.

there’s some drama in Hawaii and I mean ppl r dicks and really imo ppl should stop moving there and visiting there bc the Indigenous ppl are literally begging ppl to stop bc they are suffering. I can’t do anything abt anyone else, but I can make sure I don’t go and add to it. My friends suggested Hawaii as a girls trip to which I said not for me thx and one of the girlies asked why and I explained w some resources which she took as a thanks ok so not Hawaii maybe let’s do Florida. Great. Well another girlie in the group chat posted a tiktok today abt how she misses Hawaii and another girlie commented can’t wait to go back. And I mean I shouldn’t let this bother me but it does bc I literally took time out of my day so explain and educate to which they basically said fu. I mean not directly but I feel it was passive aggressive and unnecessary :/

Simple Tips for Planning a Trip to Oahu

Visiting Hawaii for the first time may be very challenging, especially if you are unsure which island to go to first. Oahu is the perfect island if you are searching for a place where you can enjoy individually while being with your family and friends.

It would be best if you started venturing into Oahu tour companies and their offerings. There are various tours and excursions, and you'll have to know what you like.

Oahu Hawaii tours include day trips to all tourist destinations and helicopter tours for adventure-seekers. If you want a more exhilarating adventure, ziplining is a great option.

As you plan the activities to enjoy, here are some considerations before packing your things and leaving for your Hawaiian dream.

Budget for your Trip

An adequate budget for your Oahu trip helps you plan your vacation and save you from unnecessary expenses. While there are plenty of attractions and activities on the island, some are surprisingly expensive.

Aside from the cost of airfare, you should also factor in the price of parking and hotel charges if you plan to stay for the night. You can search for other free parking spots around the island and alternative ways to travel through.

Book your Flight Early

Advanced flight booking provides flexibility in your travel dates, but there's no denying that the cost of your flight is higher if you wait until the last minute.

On the other hand, you can save money if you shop for the right flights. It would be better to compare prices from several airlines.

Pack for the Weather

The Hawaiian Islands are known for their humid climate, which can make it hard to stay cool. The best clothing to bring to Oahu is cotton. It is also a good idea to pack a sun hat. This will protect your face and ears from the sun's heat. You can also pack a lightweight umbrella, which will come in handy when you are out and about.

on that one post u were like "i have to rewrite narratives to make them better" and im the same way, so i wanted to ask since youre playing p5 rn, what would you change about p5 to make it better? i love all the characters sm... but some of them r just handled so poorly cough cough ann... so im interested in hearing ur thoughts!!

oh im so glad u asked. after 300 hrs in persona 5 i have THOUGHTS. so i think p much every character in p5 has a p good introduction nd base but the nuance of their motivations nd growth go out of the window ESPECIALLY for ann nd ryuji. under the cut ofc bc im a long winded bitch 😔

i would rewrite everything abt ann post kamoshida tbh bc the whole thing abt the first arc was abt women nd kids being treated like objects just to treat her like an object the whole time? hell no. for one her pt outfit would NOT be that. i love a catsuit but the boob window was evil. nd ALSO i would have the male character NOT remark on her body as they get closer actually i would rewrite ryuji to not be flirty towards ann at all bc there's a moment where u find out they went to the same junior high nd knew each other nd i would rather have a kinda reunited sibling vibe bc ann’s whole thing is abt not feeling safe so for her friends to look down her shirt as a joke is.............no.

also her confidant would have to be kinda rewritten. again i think its weird for ann to lament abt her looks making her a target then her goal is to be a model....? nd she has no real drive for it? atlus basically just like to make lovers arcana girls famous PERSONALLY i would make ann’s route abt finding out what she actually wants to do bc she has no passion the way shiho had for volleyball nd finding out who she is beyond her looks nd beyond being shiho’s friend. like ann has no hobbies mentioned in game other than eating sweets nd not doing her homework but it always circle back to her weight 😐

nd bc of the above i would tweak yusukes introduction to be him either wanting to draw the protag bc atlus was so close to like........a good narrative on how artists should love the human body regardless of gender nd spare ann being treated as a walking pair of tits or just him wanting to draw her with her clothes ON nd it being a moment abt capturing inner nd outer beauty rather than tits

who else.........oh ryuji. im tired of atlus turning characters w unexplored trauma into comic relief. they do it to kanji too to the point where its homophobia nd its like.........why? nd there are so many moments where ryuji lashes out then APOLOGIZES bc he recognizes the behavior is bad nd its prime time to explore his relationship w his father. or even explore the relationship w the staff? like every teacher believed lies abt him AND the protag so eye think it wouldve been beneficial to get moments where the public opinion of both u nd ryuji changes for the better once kamoshida is exposed. 

nd honestly that dumbass part of the game where morgana leaves the party couldve been ryuji. i think it wouldve been justified to have him blowing up after the nth time he was treated as a joke or throwaway despite having as much emotional baggage as the rest of them. like ryuji is the first one to stand up to men who bother the girls nd they rag on him for nooooooo reason i think calling everyone out on being so callous nd treating him like comic relief wouldve been better nd it still couldve segued into getting haru bc after he stormed out he couldve seen haru w her shit stain of a fiance nd then jumped in to save her from him..........like i see the vision

akechi............................................................my biggest gripe w the game. akechi is such a weak villain until the very end nd ik atlus wanted to recreate the iconic narrative foil between the p4 protag nd adachi but it doesnt work 😭😭😭 for one akechi is bland nd has no real personality besides being sneaky but WE AS THE AUDIENCE DON’T EVEN GET THAT. actually no first of all making akechi a detective was so fucking stupid like again....they just wanted to recreate naoto from persona 4 but worse. 

i would double down on making akechi joker’s other half. have him be another normal student that stumbled upon powers nd double down on him being fake!!!!!! have him help the party one minute just to actively put them in harms way there was no real rivalry btwn u nd akechi which is why facing him in the end fell flat other than the great voice acting nd twist of him having multiple personas but like......we need more hints! imagine akechi hinting that he sees the velvet room? 

also his route being automatic 🤮 ik p5 was bogged down w links but in my p5 akechi is a night slink thats kinda offputting? like u don’t get closer to him per se but u do see more sides of him nd he can even give u a fake request nd when u go into the metaverse he’s there nd its even weirder. wasted potential with that one

The Rookie Fanfiction | Chenford | Complete | 9.8 K | Rated E | Intimacy | Sex | S04E22 Alternate Take

But Lucy did have expectations—or rather, she was hopeful . Hopeful that “dinner” might lead to something more. Now that they were both single. Now that they’d had just a taste of what it might be like. She knew she craved more. She hoped he did, too.

Or:

Picking up right where Part I ended, Lucy and Tim juggle the responsibilities of their job while coming to terms with what they mean to each other.

Check out an excerpt below the gif, or head over to AO3 for Part II!

After Angela and the rest of their team had left the room, Lucy and Tim remained in their seats next to each other, file folders and schematics of all the buildings in Hajek’s holdings littered on the table in front of them. Hajek was playing things close to the vest, only giving Tim a vague idea about when the job would be coming up, which made it all the more difficult to plan out their operation in as much detail as they would have liked. And depending on how the job went down, Tim and Lucy knew they might need to extend the time they spent undercover. They needed to be ready to go at a moment’s notice.

Lucy tapped her pen on the edge of the table, pulling her bottom lip between her teeth before she asked Tim the question that she had been burning to ask. “How did Ashley take it when you told her you have to postpone your trip to Hawaii?”

“Uh, well… she took it about as well as possible, considering we broke up.”

“Oh. Because of… because of the undercover mission?” she asked. “I’m sorry, you don’t have to tell me. It’s not any of my business.”

“No, it’s okay. Recently, I… It turned out that we didn’t want the same things. It just made sense to end things now, before… I don’t know, before things got more serious.” He fidgeted with the paper sleeve around his cup of coffee. “And Chris? How does he feel about you going undercover?”

“He… Well, he doesn’t.” 

He furrowed his brow as he looked at her. 

“We also broke up, um, recently.” She flinched internally at the misdirect, but shrugged lightly, trying to play it off. “We weren’t on the same page. I always felt like he was more invested in our relationship than I was. And we were lacking that–that something. That spark. We just weren’t a good fit.” 

Her half-hearted smile faltered when she looked at Tim, and he remembered the single time her ex-boyfriend came up in conversation the night before—when he asked her how Chris would have touched her, and she didn’t answer.

“I’m sorry, Lucy. I feel like part of that is my fault. I’m the one who set you up with him.”

Lucy started to reach for his hand on the table, but stopped just short of making contact. Tim looked at her hand hovering so close to his on the table—so close and so tempting to reach out and hold the way he did last night (oh, the things they did last night)—and then looked back at her face.

“Tim, that’s… that’s really sweet. But also really unnecessary. You didn’t force us into anything. It was something we had to figure out for ourselves.”

“How are you feeling about that?”

She started to smile. When she first met Tim, he never would have cared, let alone asked about her feelings or personal life.

“I’m feeling… good. Content even? I feel like everything is as it should be right now. And you? Are you doing okay with everything?”

“I am. Even though I don’t think I can get my deposit back for that trip,” Tim laughed. “But I feel better knowing that my future is open—that I’m open—to finding what it is I really want in a relationship.” 

He tried to hide what he was really thinking—who he was really thinking of—and had been thinking of since the restless hours he spent last night re-examining his relationship with Lucy. But the softness in his voice and in the look in his eyes threatened to give him away.

“I think that’s probably the best outcome when you end any relationship,” she told him. “You take your experiences, positive or negative though they may be, and let that help guide you—to recognize what it is you want when you’re ready for something new.”

Tim was quiet for a moment before he spoke. “That's a good way of looking at it.”

He smiled softly at her, and the air between them seemed to warm ever so slightly as they both turned back to the research in front of them.

It was going to be a long day.

I'm so excited for the Season 5 premiere! Are you?

[giveamadeuschohisownmovie]

Okay, I gotta admit, even though the writing in “Persona 5″ is hit-or-miss for me, the scene where Yusuke shows up in Hawaii was legitimately hilarious. After the game made it clear that Yusuke was going to be in Los Angeles and wouldn’t be available for four days, the fact that he shows up in Hawaii like nothing happened made me burst out laughing. 

On another note, I can’t believe that the game has two beach episodes. I literally just got done with the first one and now I’m in Hawaii for a “school trip”. Sure, let’s go with that and not the more obvious answer that Atlus wanted to do a “vacation in Hawaii” filler arc. 

Some other random observations:

1) The game gave Makoto the Chiaki Nanami bikini. Either that’s a popular design in Japan or the people at Atlus are fans of Danganronpa.

2) The Hawaii arc feels exactly like an anime’s depiction of America. Especially with how Ryuji is so “fascinated” by American women. 

3) Once again, I gotta criticize the confidants. While I like Shinya Oda’s character, I don’t get why we needed him for the team since we already have Futaba. I said the same thing about Hifumi, that she feels unnecessary since Makoto is already my strategist. I don’t mind new characters, I just wish they served different purposes to avoid redundancy.

Basically this whole year grant and La have been separated (which means he’s been separated from his child) besides the first two-ish months of the year and when they took that trip to Hawaii (that his mom and sister where apart of) they’ve been separated. Hmmm…

(Further inspection they were(are gonna be) separated more this 2nd half of the year, but during the first half La (+Juni) was doing a lot of unnecessary traveling back and forth until she stayed put in CA in may (excluding the Hawaii trip that happened in august))

All in all Grant has been separated from Juni majority of her 1st year of life hopefully he soak up these two days he has with her 💀

I don't understand why Sam didn't learn from his Hawaii disaster last year. Every time I've seen him in the last few months, he wasn't wearing a mask in crowded places. It was only a matter of time before he got Covid.

First of all, let me note that we don't know if he has/had Covid, that is pure speculation.

Part of the reason why many assume he was unable to travel to NZ due to a Covid illness, is the cancellation of his IG live at Christmas.

Personally, I see it a little differently. I believe, that the IG live was only scheduled at all because he would have had time during his isolation in NZ on christmas and would thus have been busy. And of course, it would have been a nice gesture towards the fans.

Now, there was no quarantine in NZ and the set time for the event was a bit unfortunate for all places outside of NZ (6 am UK, 10 pm PT). For me personally, this is the main reason for the cancellation. And let's be honest, who of us wants to get up at 6 a.m. on Christmas, or start an IG live at 10 p.m., when he can instead occupy himself with other things, e.g. his family, etc.?

In addition, there are many other reasons why the trip might have been postponed: Flight cancellation, change in entry requirements, Covid disease of a family member or maybe problems after his knee injury, etc.

Anything is possible and, as I said, pure speculation.

What bothers me a bit, is this whole discussion about his behavior during the last 2 years. Yes, there have been many appearances without a mask, yes, he has visited restaurants and rugby matches, made trips to Mexico and LA in the summer (for business issues) and had pictures taken with fans without a mask. But his behavior doesn't deviate much from many other people (e.g. the whole Belfast cast during promo events).

My point is not to defend Sam in a blanket way, but just to think about how we have behaved over the last 2 years during Covid. For my part, I must admit that while I am fully vaccinated and always wear a mask when it is mandatory, I have also flown on vacation with my family the last two summers despite my government's warnings against unnecessary travel. I have likewise sometimes eaten in restaurants and met with friends/colleagues without wearing a mask all the time.

I think sometimes we should think about our own behavior for a moment, before we criticize others.

Fine Line Track 02: WATERMELON SUGAR [G.D]

Description: Two teens spent a hot summer in Hawaii together.

Warnings: Smut!! 

Word Count: 6.2K+

‘Tastes like strawberries, On a summer evening’ - Watermelon Sugar Harry Styles

Her lips wrapped around the small striped straw. Red and white lines swirling throughout the straw as her cherry pink lips stained the paper. A satisfied sigh fell past her lips as the cold drink slid down her warm throat, her lips curling into a small smile as the summer heat got washed away with her juice.

"Are you just going to sit there all summer?" Grayson shouted, shaking her up, not expecting him until later in the day.

"Maybe, maybe not," she smiled, lifting the glasses off her eyes and onto her forehead, in attempts of getting a good look at her best friend who she hadn't seen in months.

"I hope not. There's a lot to do around here," he muttered as he walked towards her, her body laying on one of those deck chairs by the pool, a red, skimpy bikini covered the precious belongings that Grayson tore his eyes off of, not wanting to disrespect her, as he should.

"Gimme a hug Dolan, don't just stand there,"  she smiled up at him, extending her hands as he leaned down, wrapping them around his shoulders, a hint of his cologne bringing nothing but happiness to her nose.

"You've been working out huh?" Her eyes traveled down his large build. It was obvious Grayson had grown over the past months.

"Gotta blow out the steam and stress," he shrugged, sitting on the chair next to her, "How 'bout you?"

"Me? I just meditate or hit the gym when I feel like I need to, you know?" She replied, bringing her glasses back down to her eyes, trying to block out the sun who seemed to be on its highest power that day.

"I get it. Gotta clean the energy 'round you," he mumbled as he closed his eyes, the stress from the past months lifting off his shoulder ever since his plane landed.

"How were your classes?" she yawned, not because she was tired but because of how free she felt.

"Harder than last year. Last week, I thought about dropping out," he chuckled making her laugh.

"The Grayson Dolan considering giving up? Engineering must be fucking hard then," she took another sip from her drink, a teasing scoff coming from Grayson once he saw the 'MelonBerry' bottle in her hands.

"How the fuck did you bring those to Hawaii?"

"Brought em' on the plane. Wrapped them up real nice and put em' in my suitcase," she chuckled, "You want one?"

"I'm good, thanks,"

"Suit yourself," she shrugged before taking another sip, letting out a loud and dramatic 'ahh' to crawl up Grayson's skin.

"You should stop drinking that before you turn into one," Grayson muttered with his eyes closed, a teasing smirk on his lips as a scoff came from Y/N.

"Fuck off, Bailey," she laughed, flipping him off, a content smile on her face, "I missed you," she sighed.

They haven't seen each other since months prior, each going to different colleges, each in a separate and distant state. Grayson came up with the idea to meet in Hawaii, saying it would be a fun experience for her. Y/N argued, claiming it was too expensive, and it wasn't in her budget. But Grayson being Grayson, sent her an email later that day, a round trip to Hawaii from Boston, and pictures of the Air BNB he rented. She called him with tears in her eyes, nagging him about spending an unnecessary amount of money on her, which of course, he simply shrugged off.

"I missed you too, and your annoying voice," Grayson replied, making her scoff, "I'm serious! It gets lonely when you're not around,"

"Boston would be better with you, you know? Life isn't as fun without you," she sighed, placing her bottle of juice down before getting up from her chair, taking her glasses off, carefully placing them down before walking towards the pool, slowly going down the small staircase that led to the water.

Small goosebumps rose through her skin as the feeling of the water and Grayson's eyes made contact with her soft skin. "You coming Gray?" Her voice came out soft and angelic, nothing but innocence within her words.

"I'm good," He never took his eyes off her, eyes being hooked to every inch of her skin, cursing himself out for every blink he made, as if he were to close his eyes for too long she would disappear from his eyes, "for now,"

"Your loss," she shrugged before completely submerging under the water, hair wet and sticking to her skin as she came back up, giggles falling past her lips as she bit them, looking directly towards Grayson, a teasing look on her face as she stared at him.

"Don't do that," he glared, "Don't look at me like that Y/N, come on,"

"Like what? I'm literally just inviting you to swim Grayson, but whatever," she shrugged and went back in the water, causing Grayson to roll his eyes. He forced himself to think about disgusting things, not wanting to feel or look at his best friend the way he was.

. . .

"How many days are we staying here? I forgot," Y/N asked as she walked to the couch, a giant blanket engulfed her body, as she made her way over to the large living room.

"A month," Grayson replied, not looking up from his phone, his thumbs quickly tapping on the screen as he typed something.

"Wow, a month," she whispered before getting up from the couch, not even a minute from when she first sat down, she walked over to the kitchen.

Grabbing a nice bottle of her 'MelonBerry' juice she walked back to the couch, she stood before Grayson, a pout on her lips as she extended her arm to him, "Can you open this for me, please?"

He grabbed the bottle from her hand, fingers touching against each other as he did so, small currents of energy running through each other's skins, Grayson took a rather large sip after opening it, making Y/N send him a glare, "I thought you didn't like these?" She asked, turning her head  to the side, slightly squinting her eyes as she looked at Grayson. 

"Wanna see what you taste like," He smirked, looking at her, trying to see any sort of change in her expression, but nothing. Y/N decided to let the comment remain unheard, "It's sweet, tastes like strawberries,"

"It's called MelonBerry Grayson. Melon for watermelon, berry for strawberry," Y/N replied like it was the most obvious thing in the world, which it sort of was, and Grayson just did it to get under her skin, "Anyways, thank you for drinking half the fucking bottle," she scoffed once she looked inside the red translucent glass bottle, Grayson's sip taking almost half of the bottle.

"Can't help it, it's so, so good," Grayson's voice was deep and rough, a teasing tone to it, making Y/N's skin shiver, the small hairs in the back of her neck standing up with every syllable he spoke.

She shook her head, sitting down on the couch. She no longer felt cold, taking the giant blanket off her body, leaving her in a pair of Pajama shorts, and a small white tank top, "It really is good, 's why I drink it so much,"

Grayson's eyes traveled down her body, her nipples being outlined by the small, and sort of tight white shirt, her thighs were almost bare, and for once Grayson felt like losing it, "You hungry?" He asked, stopping his mind from going to forbidden places.

"Mhm," she hummed with the straw in her mouth, quickly pushing it away from her mouth with her tongue, "I stopped at a grocery store before coming here. I bought pizza dough, we can make it if you want,"

"Let's do it," he got up from the couch, walking to the kitchen as Y/N followed, she got all the ingredients out before washing her hands, she took some flour sprinkling it on the counter before placing the dough on it, carefully and smoothly massaging it with her hands as Grayson watched.

"You wanna try it?" she asked and he nodded his head, before she could move, he locked her in, placing his body behind her's, his hand landing next to hers, "Not what I meant, but okay," she shook her head before she began work with the dough again, Grayson's head landed on her shoulder, his warm, yet cold breath sending shivers down her spine with every breath he took.

"This is fun," he whispered and she nodded her head, Grayson grabbed her hands, tightly holding them in his before moving his hands up to her shoulders, "You're stressed, M' working on your shoulders and you do that," he whispered against her neck as Y/N stayed frozen, she quickly shook her head, her hands started working on the dough as she closed her eyes, Grayson's hands working wonders on her neck.

"Does it feel good, Y/N?" Her name sounding different when it left his mouth, the entire question didn't feel like it was relating to a simple, friendly massage, "Answer the question,"

"Mhm, your hands are good," she nodded her head, opening her eyes, internally shaking off whatever was going on, "Really good,"

"Gray, it's done," she whispered, knowing the pizza was ready for the sauce and the rest of the things, "I'm hungry,"

"Where's the sauce?" He took her hands off her shoulder, Y/N suddenly felt cold and lonely, simply pushing it away she pointed towards the jar filled with the red sauce.

Waiting for the pizza was hell for both Grayson and Y/N. They crossed a line and were now suffering the consequences. Nobody dared to say a word, both purposely lost themselves in their phones until the pizza, where Y/N decided to break the silence, "What are we doing tomorrow?" She asked after swallowing the bite she had taken

"To the beach, and I know about this secret waterfall that we could go the day after," Grayson shrugged, locking his phone and placing it on the table.

"Secret waterfall?"

"Yeah, it's in this creek, but it's hiding away. Ever since I found it, I go there all the time," Grayson explained and Y/N nodded her head, "Come, here you got something," Grayson leaned over the table, placing his thumb on the corner of her mouth.

She didn't actually have anything, he just wanted to touch her, "There, all done,"

"Well, just wake me up tomorrow, you always get up before me, good night," she got up from her chair, throwing her plate in the trash and walking to her room, to shower and try and sleep. Sleep was something that was not in the schedule because it was almost 2 am and she found herself scrolling through TikTok.

"Can't sleep?" Grayson asked, knocking on her door, "Can I come in?"

"Yeah, been up the whole time," She replied as he walked in, sitting down on her bed, "You?"

"Same, too many thoughts," He sighed, laying his head down on a pillow.

"Wanna talk about it?" She asked, extending her blanket over to him.

"I don't know. It's just weird, we haven't seen each other in months, and I don't know it's different," he yawned, taking a look around the room. Her suitcase was neatly placed in the corner of her room, her makeup was spread out on top of the dresser, and her shoes were all laid out in a straight line by a wall.

"Different in what way?" Her eyes were closed, tiredness taking over her body at the wrong time, she wanted to talk to Grayson but she was slowly drifting away with every word he spoke.

"I don't know. Just different,"

"Y/N get up," Grayson groaned for what seemed the millionth time in the morning, forgetting how hard it was to wake her up.

"Shut up, m' trying to sleep" she muttered, nuzzling her face into the pillow, in an attempt to block out the sunlight that was coming from the window.

"And I'm trying to go to the beach, so get your fat ass up," he said, ripping the blanket off her body, causing her to finally wake up.

"My ass is perfect, now get out," She rolled her eyes, putting on her slides before walking towards the bathroom.

"Sure is," shouted walking out of her room.

…

"I know you are not going to sit there all day," Grayson complained as Y/N sat on a beach chair, white, heart-shaped glasses sat over her eyes, a copy of 'In Watermelon Sugar' in her hands

"What is it with you and watermelons?" Grayson scoffed and Y/N rolled her eyes, the attitude filled action not being visible to Grayson due to her sunglasses

"I just like them, and they're good too," she replied back, her tone was monotone, all her emotions being poured into every word she read, "And they're cute,"

"Okay, can you just enjoy the world around you for once?" Grayson was upset that the fact that Y/N hadn't been paying attention to him ever since they arrived at the beach, she had been too busy with the book, a book that she had read more than enough times.

"Fine," she groaned, folding the corner of the page she was at a bit, an annoyed expression on her face, "What do you want to do?"

"Good just follow me," he smirked grabbing her small hand in his hand, he led her down a path, a part of the beach that was secluded away from everything, just a few adults that were laying down a distant couple of feet away, Y/N was glad she left all her important belongings in the car, not trusting a bunch strangers around her stuff.

"Look at the turtles," he smiled pointing over the small turtles that were floating and swimming around near the shore.

Y/N's hand flew to her mouth, a small giggle falling past her lips as she looked at them, "Oh god, they're so cute! I hope no one does anything to them,"

"They can't, people are watching them," Grayson explained and she nodded her head.

"Good. I can't stand people hurting animals," she huffed, she placed her hands on her hips.

Grayson finally caught a good look of her body. A mustard-yellow bandeau and high waisted swimsuit covered the parts of her body she wanted to keep private. The color matching perfectly against her golden skin, something she was thanking the bright sun for. Her hair was a loose and messy bun that sat at the top of her head, and her glasses still covered her eyes, and a small cross necklace adorned her neck, "This is cute'

Y/N took off her glasses, a smirking Grayson was standing before her, his hand slowly reaching to the waistline of her bottoms, his finger grazing the hem of them, "Real cute,"

"Thanks. I got it off Fashion Nova," she gave him an innocent smile, as she internally discombobulated, "Your shorts are cute," she chuckled looking at his shorts, just plain dark blue shorts.

"Thanks, I don't know where I got them from," his hand moved from her waistline to her actual waist, mentally groaning after he got no reaction from her again.

"Last one to get in the water has to give the other a pedicure," Y/N shouted before taking off and running towards the light blue ocean

"You cheated, you know that right?" Grayson glared at Y/N as she placed her legs on top of his.

"No rules were spoken Bailey, now get to it," she said pressing the heel of her foot against his thigh, a soft hiss escaping Grayson before he huffed.

"You don't even need a pedicure," he rolled his eyes after looking at her pedicured feet, her nails were neatly colored with a white polish, and her feet were so soft.

"Don't complain, I could've had crusty musty feet, now get to it," she groaned, she relaxed back into the couch, one he felt Grayson doing what owed her since he lost.

His brain worked rather quickly, coming up with a plan once she closed her eyes. He slowly moved his hand up to her ankle, his finger tracing the small sun tattoo she had gotten done. He remembered it was her first tattoo, getting it done on their senior trip in high school. It was a small tattoo shop in Chicago, they all had gotten tattoos with fake IDs. That day Grayson got a small door behind his knee, they were all meaningless tattoos that sometimes they regretted getting. He was now at her calf, and his plan was not working, he heard a small snore come from her mouth so he gave up before moving to her other leg.

Maybe Y/N was going to be harder to crack than he thought.

Y/N wasn't actually asleep, but knowing that if her eyes were open, they would give away her reaction to his touch, so she closed her eyes, until she actually drifted off.

This time, it wasn't Grayson knocking on her door. It was her knocking on Grayson's, a quiet 'come in' was heard so she opened the door, the sight of a shirtless Grayson in bed making her knees feel like jelly, her panties to dampen, her heart to accelerate, and her body temperature to rise.

Maybe it was the fact that they were spending a month together. Or that they haven't seen each other in months. Or simply because their bodies had changed, matured in a way.

Grayson took notice of how her tits were bigger than last time, and so was her ass. Her face was different, her lips were plump and pinker from her gloss, her lashes were longer, and her hair stopped right before her shoulders making her jawline more defined, her eyes were shiny, with a hint of something Grayson still hasn't been able to determine.

Grayson's body was buff, his biceps and every muscle defined. His hair was long, and Y/N had to say it was her favorite so far. His hands were bigger, His back had grown, but in a good way, he was taller. His body was perfectly proportioned. Not to mention that in the past two days Y/N noticed that his sense of fashion was better, wearing something other than a black t-shirt with grey boxer shorts.

"You okay? You look sick," Grayson's face filled with concern, her face flushed, a hint of embarrassment flashed in her eyes for a slight second before she shook it off.

"Yeah, my room's just really hot right now," it wasn't, it was cold, colder than his at that.

"Do you wanna stay here? With me?" she nodded her head, slipping under the covers in the space he made for her. Her body's temperature finally stabilized.

Her head subconsciously landed on Grayson's chest. His heartbeat being some sort of lullaby causing her eyes to slowly close as a wave of tiredness consumed her, "Night Gray"

"Night Y/N" he repeated before she slowly drifted off, her mind making up inappropriate and forbidden scenarios as she slept.

…

"Is it far away?" Y/N asked as Grayson drove away.

They were headed towards the secret waterfall Grayson acclaimed so much. Y/N had woken up in an annoyed mood, every single little thing bothering her right into her soul. And Grayson was not dealing so well with it, not after she glared at him for asking a simple question.

"An hour and a half," he answered and a loud groan came from Y/N, making Grayson roll his eyes.

Y/N spent the hour and a half long drive sleeping, coming in and out of her daze. Unfortunately, she was as Grayson would call it 'bitchier', after her small nap.

"Can you drop the attitude for like one second?" Grayson asked and she did nothing but send him a glare, deciding to stay quiet instead of saying something she might regret, she walked away laying her towel on the ground, sitting down, and admiring the view.

Medium sized waterfalls surrounded a small body of water at the bottom, they weren't as tall as she thought they would be, so she considered maybe jumping in them once or twice.

"Let's skinny dip," Grayson suggested standing in front of Y/N, a loud laugh coming from her throat.

"Are you crazy? Out of your mind much," She shook her head, leaning down on her towel.

"There's no one around, so why not," Grayson shrugged, she turned her head to look around.

There wasn't a single soul there, except theirs of course, "Fine. But turn around, no peeking," she finally gave in.

There was nothing to lose, well only if someone decided to go to the waterfall, at the same time.

She slowly peeled her yellow bottoms off, followed by the top part of her bathing suit, and if anyone was secretly watching, her body would be fully exposed to them, "Okay, your turn," her shyness suddenly went a wave.

She was starting to crave pleasure. Things she was sure only Grayson could give her, or what she thought he could, "You could peek now," Grayson turned around, jaw slightly dropping at the sight of his naked best friend.

"Hello? We don't have all day," she snapped her fingers in his face, a small smirk on her face, "Okay never mind," she began to turn around before a pair of arms scooped her up.

The skin on skin contact sent shivers through her body as a squeal left her throat, "Grayson don't you fucking dare," she shouted.

It was too late, before she knew it she was being carried up to the surface, a loud gasp left her lips once she was able to breathe, "What the fuck is wrong with you," she shouted, smacking his chest softly.

Grayson's eyes changed. His honey-colored eyes no longer being present, a pair of dark, lust-filled eyes replacing them instead. In a matter of seconds his hand lightly wrapped against her throat, and her back was placed against a soft rock, "I'm fed up of all your attitude, and of your fucking teasing," his voice was rough and deep.

Deeper than she's ever heard before, and Grayson's voice sure got deep when he was upset.

"Mhm," she nodded her head, a hint of curiosity in her eyes. Bubbles filled her stomach as she wondered what would happen next.

"Words baby, I need words," he muttered against her neck, a small and quiet moan came from the feeling of his big, and rough hands traveling around her bare body.

"I wanted your attention, like the whore I am," she pouted, his lips placed slow and sloppy kisses around her neck and shoulders, his hands squeezing her ass making her head drop back in response.

"You're a whore for me, aren't you?" His voice was teasing-, almost mocking her. Mocking her for being such a whore for him, "What do you want Y/N?"

It was the way he said her name again. Everything but innocence was found within his voice, what did she want? She didn't know. Not being in the right headspace to make a decision as to what she wanted Grayson to do for her, she shrugged, letting out a quiet 'don't know'.

"I guess we'll just go with what I want then," he shrugged before wrapping his arms under her knees, lifting her up so that her lower half was above the water and her ass was sitting on the rock, right in front of his face, he looked up at her, eyes filled with hunger and lust, he turned his head to the side, a nod coming from her to let him know she wanted it too.

"You don't know how long I waited for this," he wrapped his arms around her waist, bringing her pussy closer to his face, his finger slowly rubbed against her skin, grazing past the are where she needed him and wanted him the most, "Gray-,"

He cut her off by pressing his thumb softly against her clit, "Shhh," he switched his thumb for his index finger that he previously had in his move, he rubbed it in small circles, small whimpers and breath falling past Y/N's lips.

He placed a small kiss on her clit, receiving a gasp in response. Her pussy ached with want, want for some sort of touch, "Don't make a sound," he instructed before licking a bold stripe up her folds, he slowly inserted a finger, her hand clutching onto his bicep as she bit her lip, holding back any sounds that tried to escape.

He licked his lips before slowly flicking his tongue against her clit, he inserted another finger, and this time Y/N wasn't so good at holding a moan back, the pleasure she was getting from his fingers slowly moving in and out of her, while his tongue worked wonder on her was more than enough to make her let out a loud moan that earned her a smack to her thigh.

Not getting what she wanted, she pushed her body down, only for Grayson to push his face back, a smirk on his face as she sent him a glare, she leaned down, small hand grabbing his jaw, her thumb slowly pulled his bottom lip down until it popped back up, "Stop moving and just eat me, please?" She asked, an innocent pout on her face as her acrylics slowly scratched his jaw.

Grayson didn't say anything, a determined look on his face, and Y/N knew she was done for, he slowly took his fingers out of her before quickly slipping them back in with no warning, his speed faster than before he leaned his head down, her hand moved to his hair, pulling it away for his face as a gathered up enough spit before slowly spitting it all over her cunt, his lips latched onto her clit with no mercy, tongue circling it, as loud moans left her lips, "Gray, Gray, more," she chanted his name as she pulled on his brown locks, her legs trying close but he pushed them away, fingers digging into her soft skin as he devoured her pussy.

"More?" he asked, he slipped a third finger in, and a loud scream came from her throat. His fingers slipped in and out of her at a fast pace, he pulled his tongue and fingers away, moving his fingers up to her clit before quickly running it, "look at you, all fucked out and I haven't even gotten started yet," he chuckled, a cocky look on his face, before she could respond he replaced his fingers with his tongue, moaning at her sweet taste sending vibrations through her body.

Her stomach began to tighten and her breaths became short. Moans turned into a loud pornographic scream as her toes curled, squirting all over his face, her vision turned white, he body trying to pull away but he locked her in with his hands behind his knees

"Grayson, Grayson fuck, fuck," the number of times she said fuck was more than what Grayson could count. Once she caught her breath she sat up, his head was between her thigh so she pulled him up, a loud and rough giggle escaping her as she pressed her lips against his lips, tasting herself, "Just wanna taste it," she muttered and he nodded his head.

"Tastes like strawberries," he mumbled before fueling pulling himself on top of her, "Wanna fuck you on this rock," he peppered kisses on her neck, long enough to leave marks on her skin, her nails scratched his back

"Do it," she whispered, she brought her hand up to her mouth, spitting in it before bringing it down to his dick. Her hand wrapped around it, slowly pumping causing small and quiet whimpers to come from Grayson's lips.

"Y/N, don't you dare," he groaned as she took her hand away, a small smile on her lips.

"Don't dare what?" She asked,  in a swift motion she flipped them over, surprising herself and Grayson on how they didn't slip off of the rock, "Actually, I just wanna swim," she shrugged, getting off of him and jumping into the water, leaving a frustrated, and angry Grayson laying naked on a wet rock.

"You coming?"  She asked before Grayson jumped in the water,  one she saw the look on Grayson's face, she took off, swimming as fast as she could, until he caught up to her, his long arms making catching her easier.

"Where were you exactly planning to go Y/N?" Grayson asked with a smirk on his face, Y/N turned her face, getting a good look around the area, noticing there was nowhere she could exactly go.

"Somewhere," She shrugged, turning back around to face him, her arms wrapped around his neck, fingers playing with the small hairs at the back of his head, his hands were right above her waist, his thumb rubbing small circles on her soft skin.

Grayson leaned his head down, pressing a small kiss below her ear, "I don't like that stunt you pulled," his teeth softly pressed down on her earlobe before he pulled away, "It wasn't very nice,"

"Too bad," She shrugged against his arms, a soft smile on her lips.

….

Y/N was in it for the night. Purposely brushing past Grayson on accident all day, saying comments that were innocent but in a way that they no longer were, looking up at Grayson will big eyes, Grayson was regretting suggesting skinny dipping, because he simply couldn't contain himself, and he could no longer do anything because people were starting to appear so they both rushed up the cliff, slipping on their bathing suits before anyone could see them.

"I had fun," Y/N smiled as she placed her bag in the trunk, they were now completely dressed, black joggers and white t-shirts hugged both of their bodies, and dirty white vans covered their feet.

"Me too, except for the part where you left me on the rock," Grayson playfully shook his head, sending her a half serious glare.

"Oh come on, the day isn't over yet," she smiled, taking a step closer to him, her hand went up to his jaw, caressing the soft skin, "Let's go home yeah,"

An hour has never gone by so slow for Grayson. Every traffic light turned red once it was his turn to go, cars kept crossing, he was letting out loud frustrated groans, nearly jumping out the car once he turned it off in the driveway, Y/N was slowly walking towards the front door until he came up behind her, hand wrapping around her neck as he turned her around, lips devouring hers as they made out against the door.

He lifted up her legs, wrapping them around his waist as he tried to unlock the door without a sight, after many attempts, he finally got the right key, unlocking the door and carrying her inside, slamming the door with his foot as he pressed her back against it, a load moan fell past her lips as he slipped his hand inside her joggers, rubbing her through her underwear.

He wrapped his arms behind her knees once again, carrying her up the stairs, loud and desperate breath coming from both of them, once Grayson reached his room he threw her on the bed, carefully climbing above her body with a hungry look on his eyes. In a swift motion he had her bottoms pulled off, "Shirt," his voice was rough as she raised her arms off, the feeling of his fingers against her stomach tickled as he took her shirt off, he sat up for a quick moment, removing his clothes faster than he's ever done before.

Y/N quickly took the opportunity to turn their body around, getting off the bed and sitting on her knees, once Grayson caught up to what she was doing he got off the bed, his hand reaching down to her jaw, thumb dragging on her bottom lip before she took it in her mouth, swirling her tongue around it, letting out a muffled moan, his grip around her jaw tightener, making her open her mouth, "Swallow it," he muttered after spitting in her mouth, she obliged, no questions asked.

She grabbed his dick in her hands, leaning her down and placing a small kiss on his tip causing Grayson's body to jerk, "Sorry," She giggled before spitting on it. She pumped her hand in a slow motion, slowly jerking him off, trying to get him harder before she put him in her mouth, she maintained eye contact while doing it, letting out a small giggle as Grayson internally almost lost it.

He let out a groan as she finally brought him in, the warmth from her mouth making his eyes roll back, she slowly took him in, bopping her head slightly before he took control.

He grabbed a fistful of his hair, taking a step back, his dick falling from her mouth as a line of spit connected the two, he pulled her head back so that she directly looking at him, "I'm gonna fuck the shit out of you," he muttered before grabbing his dick in his hands, bringing it up to her mouth before slamming his hips against her, loud gags coming from the back of her throat, she moaned around him, making him let out a grunt.

"Fucking teasing me all day, fucking whore," he moaned as he fucked her mouth, tears forming in her eyes from the filling of his dick touching the back of her throat, he stepped back for a bit, stroking his cock with his hands to allow her to breath. Her hands reached for him, thumb rubbing over his tip before she took him back in her mouth, she had a rhythm. Take him halfway in for a couple of times before deepthroating him for a few seconds, then jerking him off with his hands. After a few minutes, Grayson was sent into oblivion, eyes closing as he came in her mouth, "Shit, fuck," fell past his lips as she giggled. He looked down at her, his cum slightly dripping from her lips before she wiped it away with her thumb, slipping it into her mouth, moaning at his taste.

"Gray?"

"Hmh," he blinked his distraction away, his mind still stuck on what only happened a few seconds ago.

"Are you finally gonna fuck me or-," her question was cut short, his hand wrapping around her neck as he slammed her on the bed. He slammed himself into her with no warning, a loud moan mixed with a gasp was her reaction.

"That mouth of yours is gonna get you in trouble someday," he grunted as he thrusted in and out of her, her tits bouncing with every thrust he made.

"Well, until then, I'll wait," she spoke, followed by a moan, "Fuck," her eyes paid a visit to her brain as she clawed on his back, her nails scratching the soft skin as he placed sloppy kisses along her neck and collarbone.

"Keep talking," he muttered against his skin, he brought one of his hands down to her clit making her head fall back as she let out a string of curse words.

He flipped their bodies around, her hands falling to his shoulders for support as he grabbed onto her waist, "Ride me like the good girl I know you are," his eyes stared into hers.

She grabbed onto his shoulders before she began bouncing on him, her legs feeling broken as she did so, head was thrown back, her hands moved from his shoulder to his chest, as a chuckle left Grayson's lips, he muttered some curse words that were almost inaudible as one of his hand reached for the headboard. He stared at her licking his lips before letting out a moan, "Shit Y/N, the condom," he panted and she shook her head.

"I'm on the pill," she breathed, feeling close to herself. The knot on her stomach began to tighten, 'Gray, Gray, I'm gonna cum,"

"Do it. Cu for me angel," his voice was light and airy, almost as if he was a peace.

She threw her head back before cumming around his dick, Grayson following her actions a few seconds later, they let out loud deep breaths as they came down from their highs.

Small beads of sweat formed around her forehead that wiped off her hand, she dropped down next to Grayson on the mattress, "Holyshit," she turned her head to look at him, "Please tell me we're gonna do that more often?"

"We can't stop now, we just started,"

A/N: I’m pretty sure this is by far, the most horrifyingly bad thing I’ve ever written. Please I haven’t written smut in over a month, I’m SORYY!!!! I hate this SO SO SO SO MUCH bye-

[kokomiin]

ok time for my full thoughts on persona 5 royal, salt included but also good things first

in a gameplay sense i definitely think it’s the best version of the game, they improved mementos a hella amount which is one of my favourite things, i love the music in new layer. and jose is adorable. maruki and akechi’s social links were my other favourite additions, not just that but the benefits you get from them are great. I ended up liking sumire a lot during the last arc, but from the start up until later i found her implementation in the game to be kind of clunky and it broke up the flow of things too much and she felt very separate from the rest of the phantom thieves. big ‘extra character’ vibes, i wish there were more moments with her like at the hawaii trip.

i like some of the changes they made to the bosses, except okumura was trash don’t fight me on this, and the will seeds were a fun thing too. akechi’s social link didn’t really change how his traitor reveal was handled but it did add more to the character that i already loved, and maruki I thought fit in so well with the game. although it’s weird that he and sumire don’t have any scene at the part where everyone is cheering on the phantom thieves while they fight yaldabaoth.

I quite enjoyed the third semester, maruki’s palace was a lot of fun and his final boss was even better I loved every minute of it. super great music, good emotional vibes all around, I enjoyed it so much and akechi as a party member in this arc was really cool. I thought his characterisation was good and it made me like him even more than I thought I could. but, because I was so happy with how the maruki stuff was done, that made how the rest of the ending went all the more disappointing...

I barely even know how to start this. Just... well, now I’ve experienced the ending where you accept maruki’s reality this morning, I feel like they were just trying to go for a simple ‘opposites’ kind of thing when they wrote the true ending..? it honestly felt to me like whoever was in charge of this stuff kind of gave up. I get the characters are meant to have had some kind of growth after seeing maruki’s ideal world, and want to work towards that happiness with their own strength, but they could have had them do that without just having everyone go “I’m moving away!” it feels like a cheap way of pulling at the player’s heart strings to have them all separate conveniently without a strong reason, joker moving away and akechi being dead is already bittersweet enough in my opinion.

in the maruki ending they talk about how they’re all together etc, so I see the true ending’s result as being meant as some kind of ‘harsh reality’ sort of thing, but it just feels unnecessary and like it goes against the main theme of the game in the first place which is the strong bonds between people, the outcasts coming together and finding a place to belong. they’re supposed to be maturing in the true ending here i guess, which is fine for haru and makoto but the rest of them are still in high school and they’ve all only known each other for a year. with this kind of context i really didn’t feel like they were going to last being friends after separating.

and the ending cutscene was soooo awkward and clunky, I really felt like they were just struggling to fit everything together over the original ending. I could barely follow what was going on cause it was so awkward, too many stops and starts. and then it ends completely opposite to the original ending with everyone waving goodbye to joker... but it feels like, for what? but that’s not all. I could at least deal with this lukewarm bitter ending if maruki’s character got a proper conclusion, his part at the end of the boss fight was great! I thought, probably what should happen for him next is that he moves forward trying to understand the human heart properly and help people with therapy in a genuine way, changing his philosophy and making up for his egoism. 

but instead.. he’s a taxi driver??? what??? it just feels like he can’t be a therapist or psientist anymore so he’s just trying to make ends meet, it’s so depressing. you don’t even really get to talk to him before the end... I felt so dissatisfied. with sumire too, her end was kind of weird. doesn’t even show up on the last day and just bumps into you in the cutscene...

I guess like how I was disappointed in the original game with how akechi just died and no one really mentions him again, royal couldn’t let me go without feeling like my favourite character was done a disservice. I hate feeling “eh” at the end of this game, even though I had some wishy washy feelings about the pacing of vanilla and had preferred if it ended with shido, I still felt good and conclusive by the end. but this... no. plus that after credits scene was absolute garbage, don’t show me a glimpse of something like that for no reason unless there’s at least gonna be a sequel! don’t take away the weight of akechi’s death after I came to terms with it!

on one more positive note though, I liked seeing through the maruki ending a bit more of akechi’s character... he really wanted to be the kind of person he pretending to be for people to like him, and he wanted to be friends with everyone. it’s sad, but it was nice to see him be happy.

Ryuji for that character thing! If you haven't had him already

Ryuji!! I already know this is gonna be a long one.

Favorite thing about them

He has one of the biggest, kindest hearts in the Persona universe. Once he found out why Makoto was blackmailing them, he forgave her almost immediately. Despite not having a lot himself, he spends money feeding Yusuke (which I will talk about in my headcanons). He tries to befriend and include Mishima because he knows he doesn’t have any friends. He is always hyping up and complimenting the other phantom thieves (have you heard his dancing lines?)

Least favorite thing about them

I don’t like the number of times he is written OOC in the game, particularly when it comes to pervertedness. Before I go on, this isn’t me ignoring his flaws. Character flaws are extremely important. Without them, a character is no longer interesting or even likable. One of my favorite persona characters is Yosuke who doesn’t exactly have the cleanest mind, so I’m not saying Ryuji isn’t perverted because I don’t like it. I’m saying it because I honestly don’t think he is.

Yes, Ryuji likes girls, but he isn’t gross about it. The only times I can recall this behavior is in two anime cutscenes towards Ann for comedic relief (side note: he didn’t realize what the maid service actually was. He genuinely thought they were just ordering a cute maid to do housework). Ryuji has so much respect for Ann, and he knows what she’s been through. He would never ever do anything like that- no matter how close they are.

I think what happened is the writers didn’t write a character who could make those kinds of jokes (except maybe Ren who is a silent protagonist), so when they wanted to make one of those jokes they chose Ryuji because he’s “the best option.” Morgana is lowkey a feminist, and, you know, a cat, so it would be a little weird coming from him. And then there’s Yusuke who lectured two girls for asking to hangout. ATLUS knows how to write a “likable pervert.” We’ve seen it with Yosuke. They could have given this trait to Ryuji, and I would have been fine with it. The problem is, they didn’t, making those scenes awkward and uncomfortable.

Favorite line

“I can’t think and flex at the same time.”

brOTP

Ren Ren!! Based on his dialogue options to characters like Ann and Sumire, I think Ren finds the super cheerful and energetic personality a little overwhelming, yet Ryuji, who is the loudest and brightest sunshine child out there, doesn’t bother him, and if that’s not the sweetest thing-

OTP

RyuAnn is so cute. Normally I don’t like shipping characters who are just best friends, but I love them together.

nOTP

I don’t really have one. He’s kind of shippable with everyone. Like any ship I see with him I’m like “I don’t think it, but I can see it.”

Random headcanon

He buys Yusuke food and tries to keep Jagariko on him. A lot of the time when Yusuke talks about being hungry or not having money for food Ryuji offers to take him out to eat or pay. In a manga, he said he didn’t have any Jagariko on him implying he usually does.

This is a popular one, but I think he dyed his hair blond back in middle school when ann was considering dying her hair black. It doesn’t make sense for him to dye it as a way to embrace his new reputation as a delinquent. He hates that reputation so much. Yes, he accepted it, but I don’t think he wants to add any unnecessary fuel to the fire.

He and Yusuke are roommates in college!

Shiho, Ann, and Ryuji were a trio in middle school.

He has insomnia. There are so many times throughout the game when he mentions not sleeping for literal days.

There’s very little that Ryuji does that annoys Ren; however, I know Ryuji has taken Ren’s glasses off his face and put them on himself. It’s such a Ryuji thing to do.

The girl at the convenience store who gave the chocolate to Ryuji on Valentine’s Day? It wasn’t pity chocolate, and they date sometime during third year or after high school.

This is also a popular one, but I think the reason why he isn’t a very good dancer in Dancing is because of his leg injury. He usually does very basic dance moves with his feet, and his dances focus more on his hands.

He sees Mishima sitting alone at lunch their third year of high school, and forces him to sit with them.

Unpopular opinion

His whole “fame thing” wasn’t that bad. While I don’t think it’s a good mindset to have, he never did or said anything harmful as a result of it. He was just annoying. Ryuji has extremely low self-esteem. He has been beaten down his entire life, physically and emotionally. The only thing he thought he was good at was track, and that didn’t turn out well for him. Finally, he’s doing something incredible, but nobody knows about it. He’s proud of his work as a phantom thief, and he wants to tell people. He also wants people to recognize how awesome he is and give him some sort of validation. He doesn’t feel loved, and he thinks it’s his fault. Now he has something that he knows would make others like him. I don’t understand why he gets so much crap for it when in-game he recognized his that behavior was wrong, why it was wrong, apologized, and said he would work to be a better person.

Song I associate with them

Travel Song from Shrek The Musical lol. It’s literally the Hawaii trip. Shrek is Ann, and Ryuji is Donkey.

Favorite picture of him

Also this portrait. His smile makes me want to smile

Car Troubles

Mechanic Jaebum X Reader

Genre: Fluff

Word Count: 6K

Summary: Your car has been acting up lately, but you’re too stubborn to do anything about it. However, your best friend BamBam suggests you take your car to a mechanic and gives you the contact of his friend JB. When you take your car in to JB’s shop, you find yourself immediately attracted to him. You thought that he was just going to fix your car and that would be the first and last time you’d end up seeing him, but oh were you wrong.

A/n: Hey guys! So this was requested a while back and if I’m being honest, I’m kind of iffy with how this turned out I can never do JB justice :( I hope you enjoy! (This was actually written based on my first experience with a flat tire. Luckily I live in Hawaii, a lot of the locals are some of the sweetest people and they won’t hesitate to help you if needed plus we have a bunch of auto repair shops almost anywhere you go so before I could freak out about having to do all this unnecessary shit, I literally drove less then two minutes down the road and BOOM I was good PLS CHECK YOUR TIRES)

“Damnit! This is the third time this week my car overheated. I don’t get it. I put coolant inside every single time, so what’s going on?” You and your best friend BamBam were currently on the way to the grocery store to buy some snacks for the movie night you both had planned from the beginning of that week. Unfortunately, as you were about to turn in to the shopping mall, your car gave you a warning that it was overheating. 

BamBam couldn’t help but let out a chuckle; he’s been telling you for months to save up some money and to sell the piece of junk that you call a car in order to buy another one but you always gave him the excuse that it gets you to and from your location just fine so there’s no point in spending thousands of dollars to get a new one. 

“You already know what I’m going to say so I don’t see a reason to waste my breath.” You rolled your eyes and scoffed as you pulled in to a parking stall. BamBam was right and you didn’t understand why you were so adamant on keeping your car, especially when the cost of maintaining it was more expensive than getting a new one. It’s just that you didn’t want to have to deal with another car payment and everything else that came with it on top of your college tuition and rent. 

“Have you ever actually taken it in to an auto repair shop to see if there might be something wrong with it? I’m sure there’s more you need to do to it rather than constantly putting in coolant. Who knows, you might even be making things worse by doing so. Hey, why don’t you let my friend JB take a look at it? He’s a mechanic and he owns his own shop. What? What is that look for?” You sent him a knowing glare as the two of you got out of your car and made your way towards the store. 

“The last time you introduced me to a friend of yours I almost broke my ankle.” BamBam giggled at the memory of his friend Yugyeom teaching you how to dance and you tripping over his extremely long legs. 

“Hey, it’s your fault you have two left feet. Yugyeom is an amazing dance teacher, you’re the one who can’t dance. Ow—okay I deserved that. But I’m serious about JB. He knows his stuff. He’s been fixing cars since we were in high school and I’m sure he’ll give you a discount since you’re friends with me. Just say the word and I’ll give him a call. You can even search him up and read his reviews if you don’t believe me.” 

You contemplated his offer for a few moments before releasing a frustrated sigh and nodding in agreement. There wasn’t any harm in having him take a look at what might be the problem with your car. You just didn’t want BamBam to continue bothering you about it like he did with Yugyeom’s dance lessons. 

Once the two of you finished your grocery shopping and headed back to your apartment, you decided to look up JB’s auto shop to look at the reviews before having BamBam reach out to him for you. You were surprised to say the least when you saw all the comments from customers raving about how good he was at his job. 

As you continued to read the reviews and saw the photos of people’s cars, you could tell that JB was very passionate about being a mechanic and he put a lot of time and detail in to his work. BamBam was quick to reach for his phone in order to call his older friend once you gave him the okay and you took this time to start mixing the brownie batter. 

“Hey man, it’s Bam. Yeah, I’m gonna need a favor. What do you mean I still owe you for—okay I know, but didn’t I get you that—I didn’t? Okay well that’s not the point here. The favor isn’t even for me it’s for my friend. Her car keeps overheating and I was wondering if you could take a look at it? Really? You’d do that? Thanks bro! That means a lot to me I owe you one—I get it—fine I owe you nine whatever. She’ll bring it in tomorrow. See you then.” The older boy placed his phone down on the coffee table and folded his arms behind his head cockily. “Am I the best or what? You’re welcome.” You scoffed before setting a timer on the oven and making your way in to your living room. 

“You didn’t do anything, you know that right? All you did was call to make an appointment with a mechanic. I could’ve done that by myself.”

“Fine, you can go by yourself tomorrow too if you’re going to act like that.” You gave him an adorable pout before wrapping your arms around his waist and placing your chin on his shoulder. 

“I’m kidding Bam. I’m very grateful for you. You’re my best friend.” He gave you a knowing look before dipping his finger in the brownie batter and licking it clean.

“Who are you kidding? I’m your only friend. But I’m the only one that you need anyway. By the way, I actually have to go with Yugyeom tomorrow to his doctor’s appointment; he promised me lunch so you’re on your own but you have nothing to worry about. JB‘s a really cool guy. He’s even nicer to girls. All you have to do is bring your car in and sit in his office while waiting. It’ll be a breeze. Let me know how it goes, if he needs to keep your car overnight, just give me a call and I’ll come pick you up. If you’re nice to me, I’ll talk Yugyeom in to buying you lunch too.” 

The next morning, you woke up earlier than usual and began to get ready to head over and drop your car off to JB’s shop. You couldn’t understand why you felt so nervous. Something about mechanics were so intimidating, probably because you were afraid of being reprimanded for neglecting your car. BamBam went in to detail about their friendship the night before and explained to you that JB was very dedicated to his job. He knew anything and everything that had to deal with cars. All you had to do was hand your car over to him and let him do his thing while you occupied yourself with your phone. 

After eating some breakfast and preparing your insurance forms, you made your way to his auto repair shop which was conveniently located less than ten minutes away from your apartment. The drive took longer than expected; it seemed that almost everyone was out on the road today and you couldn’t help the frustrated sigh that fell from your lips at the realization. Once you finally arrived to “Nora’s Auto Repair” you pulled up right in front of the garage and parked before looking around for who BamBam described to be JB. 

“He’ll probably be working on a car by the time you get there so there’s no use in wasting your time looking for him in his office. He’s a few inches taller than me with dark, brown hair up to his shoulders, brooding eyes and a sharp jaw. Try not to make him angry, that jaw has a mind of it’s own. But don’t be intimidated by his appearance, he’s a big softie.” 

You walked straight up to the garage and saw a pair of feet underneath a car. At first, you were afraid of interrupting him, with the music blasting in the background on top of the sounds of what you assumed to be a screwdriver, you knew he was very focused on the car he was currently working on; but at the same time, you didn’t want someone walking in on you standing there, doing nothing like a weirdo. 

“Um—excuse me?” It came off almost like a squeak of a mouse, you were sure he probably didn’t hear you, so you repeated yourself again. When he still had yet to acknowledge your presence, you decided to get his attention another way and gently tapped his ankle with the tip of your sandal. Unfortunately, he ended up getting startled and immediately sat up, hitting his head up against the radiator and released a frustrated grunt before getting up from underneath the car. You were about to open your mouth to release countless apologies for scaring him but that was before you got to take a good look at him. 

He was in more or less words extremely gorgeous. His long hair was slicked back, he was wearing overalls and a blank tank top that showed off his broad shoulders and toned biceps. BamBam was right about his brooding and piercing eyes, and you were quick to notice the two adorable moles right above his eyebrow. He also had some dirt and grease on his cheeks, but for some reason it made him look even more attractive than he already was. You didn’t think someone could look so good, as if he came right out of a magazine while working on a car. You’ve been friends with BamBam for years now, why did he have the audacity to keep this beautiful man standing in front of you a secret? 

“Are you alright? I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to startle you I just—BamBam told me to look for you and—“ When you first heard him groan in pain after hitting his head, you were sure you’d get an earful about interrupting someone while they were working on a car. However, your cheeks warmed up at the way he was looking at you with the most adorable smile you’ve ever seen on a grown man. 

“Don’t sweat it, it happens all the time. My employees constantly nag me about turning down my music so I can hear people approaching. You must be y/n. Nice to meet you. You’re friends with BamBam? You poor thing. It must be tiring being his right hand man—I mean woman. So, what seems to be the problem with your car?” He asked for you to lead him to your car and had you pop open the hood so that he could take a better look at what the problem might be. 

“It’s been overheating a lot these days. I’ve put in coolant three times this week and it’s still not cooling down. I have a fear that one day the battery will die if I don’t do something about it so that’s why I’m here.” He nodded in understanding before taking a look inside and making sure nothing was out of the ordinary. Your eyes began to wander all along his body and you felt weird for checking someone out just a couple of minutes after meeting him but who could blame you? He was practically a Greek God and honestly, even if the two of you just met, you would do anything he’d ask of you. 

JB took a few minutes going over multiple parts of your car, the exhaust system, suspension, brakes, air filter, spark plugs; anything he felt could be adding on to the failure of your car. While he continued examining the hood of your car, you decided to look away to prevent yourself from staring at him any longer. You texted BamBam to let him know that you made it over to JB’s place and you were about to admit that you were having a hard time paying attention to anything other than him. For someone who was drenched in sweat and car exhaust, he looked like he came straight out of a magazine. You were so deep in your thoughts that you failed to notice JB trying to get your attention. 

“I think the coolant you must’ve put in there kinda screwed it up but it’s nothing I won’t be able to fix. I also recommend you get an oil change since you’re here. It won’t take too long, you can go sit in my office and I’ll come let you know when I’m done.” You politely thanked him and he gave you a soft smile and you were sure your heart was about to jump out of your chest the longer you were around him. As you began heading towards his office, you heard him call out for you. 

“By the way y/n, call me Jaebum.” With the way warmth immediately rose on your cheeks, you had a feeling you were a blushing mess from hearing his words and you were quick to pick up on the cheeky intonation of his voice. You refused to turn around to face him and nodded softly to yourself, there was no way you’d give him the benefit of the doubt by making it aware that he was having an effect on you. You had just met the guy less than ten minutes ago and you’ve seen your fair share of good looking men before, so why were you going so crazy over JB? 

Once you took a seat in his office, you gave yourself a few seconds to breathe and get your thoughts straight. However, your mind wouldn’t stop going back to how attractive he looked with his hair all out of place while oil and dirt was stained on his overalls. The smile he sent was now glued in your mind. He was easy on the eyes, hardworking, and extremely personable. You secretly cursed BamBam for not introducing the two of you sooner under different circumstances but you had no idea why you were acting like this. It’s not like the two of you actually conversed with each other, nor were you anything more than just a clumsy customer who had no clue about anything car related. 

For almost two hours, you played a couple of games on your phone and even watched a few Netflix shows to make time go by faster, and to keep your mind off of the way Jaebum’s muscles flexed while working on your car as you checked up on him every now and then through the window. Luckily, multiple episodes of Parks and Recreations took up all your attention for almost the entirety of waiting. You were so deep in to an episode that you failed to notice Jaebum enter his office until you heard the door shut. 

“Hey, I’m done with your car. Sorry it took so long, I wanted to make sure everything is good before sending you off. I changed the oil, tightened a few pipes and fixed the overheating problem. You should be all good to go.” You smiled softly at him and thanked him profusely before taking out your wallet. 

“How much do I owe you?” He took a seat at his desk and began writing down a few numbers, estimating how much the work on your came out to on your car. 

“$100 flat.” You looked at him in shock, dumbfounded with his answer. Sure, you weren’t one to know much about cars, but you knew with the amount of work he did to your car that it was worth more than just one hundred dollars. It felt as if you were gypping him and taking advantage of his kindness. 

“Jaebum, you can’t be serious right? I’m sure it’s more than $100. I’m fine with paying full price! You did so much—“ he playfully shook his head before handing you your keys. 

“It’s totally fine y/n. If I’m being honest with you, I think you should actually put your money in to getting a new car. I took it for a drive around the block and it still runs just fine, but you don’t want to risk something bad happening to it again soon.” You nodded in understanding before writing out a check. An idea popped in your head and you could only hope that he’d want to go along with it and not think negative of you for asking. 

“How about I treat you to some lunch? You must be hungry after hours of work. Plus I want to pay you back for all that you did for my car. It means a lot, thanks again Jaebum.” The wide grin that he was now sporting made your heart flutter. You were soon regretting your decision of taking him to lunch because you knew you wouldn’t be able to sit in front of him without practically drooling over him. 

“That sounds cool. Let me just get cleaned up a bit and we can go.” After you paid him, he left his office to and in his words “look more presentable” leaving you all alone with your thoughts. Why were you so worried? He seemed like an extremely cool guy and he practically fixed your car for less than half of what is normally expected. If BamBam could trust him, you could too. It just didn’t help that he was extremely attractive. 

“Ready to go?” If you thought he looked good earlier, seeing him freshened up was a sight to behold. His face was free of dirt and oil, he changed in to a pair of jeans and a flannel and he threw his hair back in to a man bun. You were internally cursing yourself for putting yourself in such a situation. All you wanted to do was treat him to lunch, but now you had to suffer knowing that you were quickly developing a little crush on him. 

“Yeah. Shall we?” He hummed in agreement and like the gentleman he was, he held the door for you and led you to his car. When he walked up to his pick up truck, you couldn’t help but stifle a laugh. 

“Something wrong?” You shook your head in disagreement. 

“Your car matches you.” With the way he adorably tilted his head in confusion, you knew he didn’t understand what you meant. “Trucks can be intimidating and quite rugged. Like you.” 

“Ah. I get what you mean. Well, since we’re on the topic of it, your car doesn’t match you at all.” You were about to open your mouth but he was quick to continue. “You’re driving a 2003 Toyota Corolla. Quite a safe car, which is understandable—if you were an elderly woman. However, you seem quite stable unlike your car—ow! I fixed your car for cheap and I get a slap in return. I’ll make sure to rack up the bill at lunch to get back at you.” He winked at you, causing your heart rate to increase before opening your door and helping you inside. 

The car ride was filled with laughter and terrible singing, mainly from Jaebum, but you enjoyed every second of it. It’s been a while since your last relationship and you were only really close with BamBam, so you weren’t used to being around any other guy. You could get used to being around Jaebum. He had the heart of a child; he was so charismatic and optimistic. You also learned that he owned five cats, loved to read books in his free time and he was the biggest mama’s boy. So this is what BamBam meant when he said JB is a big softie. 

Your time together at lunch was much like it was in the car. You found yourself laughing almost the entire time over the countless stories he told you about his childhood, his friendship with BamBam and the rest of their group of friends and the horror stories that came with being a mechanic. Seeing his eyes light up as he described to you how in love he was with his job made butterflies erupt in your tummy. Too bad this was only a one time thing and you had a feeling you’d only ever get to see him if you needed your car fixed. When the two of you were finished with your meals, before you could reach for the check, he handed his card to the waiter in which you were quick to object multiple times, but he reached over and placed his finger on top of your mouth to prevent you from complaining any further. This man was going to be the death of you. 

“Jaebum, I was supposed to pay—“ he shook his head as he signed the receipt and motioned for you to get up. 

“You can get the check next time okay?” You gave him a pout, but on the inside you were over the moon. Next time? Did this mean he had plans on becoming friends with you? Or something beyond friendship? Whatever it was, the idea of having Jaebum in your life made you extremely happy. You could use such a positive and carefree person like him in your life to motivate you to become a better person. 

To your dismay, your day with Jaebum came to an end and before you knew it, he pulled up in front of your parking structure. “Thank you again Jaebum. For my car, for lunch, for everything. I had a really nice time tonight. Let me know when you’re free, you ass. I really wanted to treat you.” He flashed you his award winning smile before pinching your cheek. 

“Don’t worry y/n, I’m already planning on which expensive steakhouse I want you to bring me to. Don’t hesitate to call me if you need help with your car. Have a nice night!” When Jaebum told you to call him whenever something was wrong with your car, he didn’t expect you to call him every other week. The two of you texted each other back and forth every so often, but it was never more than a simple “how was your day?” Or “how is your car?” You had a feeling he wasn’t interested in you the way you wish he would be, but you decided to let it go. 

Unfortunately, only two weeks after he worked on your car the first time, your air conditioning broke which he was quick to offer in fixing. Then another two weeks later, your battery died. You were on your way to the grocery store when your car completely gave out and Jaebum did not hesitate to drive over to you and bring you another one. He even installed it on the side of the road where your car was. It was if you couldn’t catch a break, but you weren’t going to lie; you enjoyed having excuses to see Jaebum again. His presence was like a breath of fresh air and every time you had to leave him, you felt like your life was colorless and dull. 

He was always very kind and patient with you, he even tried his best to console you the minute your battery died because he could tell in your voice that you were freaking out. Even when he arrived to your location, he pulled you in to his embrace and cautiously rubbed your back in attempts to get you to calm down. His arms were so comforting and you missed the feeling of them practically swallowing your body entirely. With each and every time you needed his assistance, he would always give you a knowing smirk and remind you that maybe it was time to get yourself a new car. 

You didn’t fail to notice the way that Jaebum would steal glances from you every so often, and how he was quite gentle with you than he was with other clients. Even when he hugged you that day, there was something with the way he placed his chin on top of your head while running his fingers through your hair that made you feel as if he didn’t act this way towards just anybody. When you told your assumptions to your best friend, the older boy laughed in your face. 

“Jaebum? Like you? Hahahaha! Don’t make me laugh y/n—oh. You were being serious. Don’t take it the wrong way, you’re beautiful. Any guy would be lucky to have you as their girlfriend. It’s just—Jaebum doesn’t date. Or at least I’ve never seen him in a relationship before. That guy is married to his job—hell he’s married to the cars he fixes. Maybe he’s just being friendly since you’re my best friend. It’s been a month since I first sent you his way. Don’t you think he would’ve made a move on you by now?” 

Although his words sent a jab to your heart, he was right. If Jaebum reciprocated your feelings for him, he would’ve done something about it a long time ago. You knew BamBam didn’t mean any harm, but hearing him say things like that was a slap in the face by reality that you were nothing to Jaebum but a nuisance. Someone who was too stubborn to pay for a new car and had to keep wasting Jaebum’s time when he could be doing something more important. 

You did whatever you could to make sure you no longer needed his help, but life never seemed to be on your side. You were sitting in line at a drive through when the cutest little elderly man came up to you and pointed out to you that your back tire was looking pretty low. Once you got your food, you pulled to the side and contemplated your next move. As much as you didn’t want to bother Jaebum, you didn’t know what to do. 

“What’s up y/n, everything okay?” You released a frustrated sigh at the thought of why you were calling him in the first place. 

“Hey. Sorry to bother you again but car has a flat tire and I have no idea what to do.” You heard him giggle softly through the phone and the sound alone made you calm down. Something about Jaebum’s laugh made you want to laugh yourself. He had one of those contagious laughs that could even get a mime to crack a smile. It was the most beautiful sound in the world, you were sure of it. 

“That’s why you have me. Where are you? Are you in a safe location? Can you send me a picture of your tire? Are you okay? You’re not hurt are you?” Your heart warmed at all of his questions. The fact that he seemed genuinely worried about you made you blush like a schoolgirl. “I’m fine. I was at Jack in the box when someone told me my tire was flat. I’m currently in their parking lot just eating my soggy curly fries and cursing myself for not listening to either you or BamBam about finally getting a new car.”

“Hey, as much as I want to tell you I told you so, now is definitely not the time. I’ll be there in fifteen. Save some of those soggy fries for me.” After you hung up the phone, you decided to kill time by playing some games. You even ran inside and bought him something to eat as your way of thanking him for having to leave work again to come help you. When he arrived less than ten minutes later, you were quick to pick up on the car he was driving. It wasn’t his truck, was he maybe taking someone else’s car for a test run? 

“Hey, I’m glad to see that you’re all in one piece, I was worried. It’s a shame your cars not.” Every time he had to come help you out, he always made a joke about how shitty your car was and if it were anyone else, you’d probably fight them. But because it was Jaebum, you allowed him to constantly make fun of you and the fact that your car was a piece of junk. You handed him over the bag of food to which he thanked you and playfully wiggled his brows at you. 

“You know this doesn’t count right? I’m still expecting dinner at Kobe steakhouse.” You playfully rolled your eyes and it’s as if he knew your next move so he immediately moved away. The two of you were extremely playful with one another and you would always end up hitting him whenever he made a joke about you but it was all in good fun. He began snacking on a few French fries before taking a look at your tire. 

“Oh shit. Oh yeah that’s bad. You know something y/n?”

“What?”

“At first, I was sure your car was cursed. Sure, it’s 17 years old, so it’s expected to be a little run down. But I’ve had customers bring in cars from the 90’s and they drive perfectly fine. So I couldn’t help but think that maybe you purposely mess around with your car so that you have an excuse to come and see me.”

Although you loved every chance you got to see the handsome boy, you weren’t crazy enough to go to the lengths of practically killing your car. Did he really think you would waste hundreds of dollars by purposely breaking down your own car just so you could see him? He must’ve lost his mind. As you were about to open your mouth and fight back against what he said, he connected your lips with his. 

His lips were hot and rough against yours and his hands were quick to cup both your jaw and neck. He swiped his tongue along your bottom lip before bringing it in between his teeth, nonverbally asking for entrance. Once you felt his tongue against yours, you were quick to release a soft moan and gently tugged on his soft locks. To your dismay, he pulled away in order to catch his breath and took a good look at you before hiding his face in the juncture of your neck. 

“I’d be lying if I said my heart didn’t flutter every time I saw your name pop up on my phone although, I hated the thought of you in an unfortunate situation and I would always get worried because you’re usually alone whenever something goes wrong with your car. I’ve liked you from the day we went to lunch the first time and you practically snorted on your soda at something I said. You’re extremely beautiful you know that? I have a hard time trying to keep myself from looking at you. And you’re so fun to be around. Albeit a little clumsy, stubborn and irresponsible, but it makes you unique and honestly I really like those things about you.” He picked one of your hands up and began leaving a few kisses on the back of it. 

“Wait, you kissed me before confessing or even trying to see how I felt. Were you planning on seeing how things would go? Or did you just so happen to catch me practically drooling over you every now and then?” He let out a snicker and shook his head. 

“A little birdie called me last night and told me that you were talking to him about me and whether or not I had feelings for you.”

“That asshole. He told me he had no clue and that you were only being friendly with me. I didn’t think you liked me back, you never really talk to me unless something’s wrong with my car.”

Jaebum couldn’t help the laugh that fell from his lips as he saw your brows furrow in frustration. “Nobody knows how I feel about you. Look how quick BamBam was to admit that you liked me! If I were to tell him anything for that matter, it would probably be on the news less than an hour later. He’s one of the biggest blabber mouths there is babe. And I’m actually shit when it comes to these things. Trust me, every time you would text me, it took a lot of willpower not to go deeper in to the conversation. I love talking to you. There were so many days where I had the urge to call you and just talk about nothing. You make me really happy y/n. I’ve never felt this way about anyone before. Whenever you came in, I couldn’t help the stupid grin that would stay on my face for the entirety of the day. My employees wouldn’t stop looking at me funny. Is it wrong that I would sometimes hope something were to happen to your car just so you would come in?” 

You scoffed before stealing a kiss from the corner of his mouth. “And you call me crazy. You’re just as head over heels for me as I am for you punk ass.” He took a bite out of the sandwich you bought him and motioned for you to follow him. You noticed how he took out the keys from the car he drove in and handed them to you. It’s as if he knew you were about to ask him a question and beat you to it. 

“This is your new car. It’s not much, but it’s a lot better than the one you have now. Someone brought it in the other day because they had no use for it and so I decided to fix it up and planned on giving it to you. Take good care of it okay? As much as I love seeing you come in to my shop, I don’t want you having any more problems with your car.” 

Your jaw dropped in awe and a few tears fell from your cheeks. You couldn’t believe that he was giving you a new, well, used car but in way better condition than the one you had now. He could’ve sold it or donated it but yet he fixed it up with the intention of giving it to you. What did you do in your past life do deserve him? He wasn’t quite ready when you practically jumped on him, but his reflexes were quick as he wrapped your legs around his waist and held you by your thighs. You began leaving wet kisses all around his face before finally bringing your lips to his. When you felt him smile in to the kiss, you returned the same ministration. 

“Thank you so much Jaebum. Ugh you’re so amazing you know that? I really don’t know how I can pay you back for all that you’ve done to me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!” He smiled against your neck and placed you back on the ground before intertwining your fingers together and leading you over to your old car to get your things. 

“You can repay me by going out with me on a date. Tonight, if you’re free.” You nodded in agreement while hiding his face in your chest. However, before you could get comfortable, you felt something wet against your cheek. 

“Ew babe did you just get finished working on the car? You’re sweaty!” He scoffed before playfully slapping your butt earning himself a surprised moan. 

“You want to give me another reason to get sweaty baby? Ow—there are other ways you can show me how thankful you are without having to hit me y/n. Unless you’re in to stuff like that I’m all for getting rough—hey—where are you going silly girl? Babe! Get back here y/n! And don’t eat my fries you bought those for me!”
