love languages: jeon wonwoo

jeon wonwoo x reader fluff warnings: mentions of food, mentions of being attacked while playing games wc: 651 author's notes: will forever support the gamer!wonwoo agenda. i actually wanna play games with him and seungcheol😔. also, trying to finish posting this series for the '96 line before i change my theme for a winter event (i hope i get done w jihoon's tomorrow.) hope you like it!

acts of service:-

wonwoo loves silently. he might not always say it out loud (but mind you, he does — he does when he feels like his heart will explode if he doesn't say it) but he expresses it in ways that melts your heart. he shows his love when he kisses you on your forehead when you sleep in on day-offs, before heading to make you breakfast (well, attempting to). he shows his love when he stops you in the middle on your walk to tie your shoelaces, or pulls you across him so he's the one walking towards the road-side. he shows his love by restocking all your favourite candies and drinks and fruits when they're over, or when you're nearing your shark week. it's his love in the way he makes you an album of all the pics of you he's taken while you weren't noticing. he doesn't say it all out, but you can see it in the efforts he puts in for you, and that's more than enough for you.

"we might need to go grocery shopping; we're out of banana milk..." your voice traces off as you open the fridge and notice a tray filled with the item you just mentioned. wonwoo hugs you from the back as he nuzzles into your neck, "i knew you'd say that, so i bought them the other day itself."

quality time:-

another way wonwoo expresses love is by trying to be with you as much as he can. weekends are days for you both to relax together, even if that means you're on the opposite sides of the couch, one reading a book and one watching videos on their phone. he lovingly indulges in your routines — silently accepting his fate when you drag him for skincare, humming songs to keep you company as you clean up the kitchen, massaging your head on wash days. when he's playing games and you're somewhere around, he instinctively pulls you into his lap, saying something along the lines of, "you help me play better." so now you're on his lap, playing with and tugging at his hair while he wins games.

wonwoo silently watches you as you gather a few things and get ready for your bath. you turn around to look at him, "hey, i'm going to take a bath." he smirks before standing up. "mind if i join?"

playing video games together:-

if wonwoo is asked, 'what are the two things he loves the most?' he'd probably reply with 1) games, and 2) you. so even though playing games together comes under quality time, it's so special to wonwoo; it's like his own multiverse of madness. It was a surprise to him, when you'd first told him you were interested. he almost jumped from joy when he actually processed it. from then on, it was a joint project to help you clear the levels; sometimes he wouldn't even let you play because 'its too difficult, I'll do this for you.' always plays on your team because he wants to be there for you when you need help, but once he understood that you're good on your own, you started competing against each other (you winning over him ended up turning him on, and you had to deal with it, but that's a story for another time). he also gives your characters names that match with his — GAM3 BO1 and GAM3 G1RL (will get ready to physically fight anyone who's already taken the name).

"wonwoo!! i'm being attacked!" you yell at the top of your voice. wonwoo rushes his character over to where you were getting attacked and uses his special skill, the shield (one he bought especially for you), to help you regain health and get into form. but just as you begin to play, wonwoo says: "i'll complete this level for you, love. you just sit back and look pretty."

Update on my father - he's been admitted to the hospital today early morning. They're preparing him and my Mom's there with him. The surgery is confirmed for tomorrow morning.

I'm still busy cleaning the house and organizing stuff, but I'm taking a lot of small breaks because I'm getting so tired I'm sleeping all morning, and by all morning I mean from midnight up to midday - NO KIDDING.

I'm using some of these breaks to play Paleo Pines (it's pretty relaxing and I love all the cute dinosaurs) and working with my pups on the answers for their sideblog. We'll start publishing some of those this evening but I'll keep their askbox closed for now to keep the semi-hiatus status of the blog, I can't promise we'll be entirely back just yet.

The other thing I've been doing slooooowly for now is planning my birthday. I can't invite people over, as my father will be on heavy recovery post-surgery, only my best friend was allowed to come over... So it'll be pretty much only us, him, maybe his parents, maaaaaybe one aunt. I'll decorate anyway, I want a Paw Patrol themed party. I can take pics and share them with you all, make it an online party XD This is why I have asked for Rescue Wheels screenshots, but you'll see what exactly I'm planning to do with those only when the day comes XDD

For now, all you need to know is that I have a printer and I will make use of it alright 😂

[p-redux]

So, I received additional info from a different source regarding the woman seen with Sam leaving his hotel. I'm starting a new post about it since the reblogs and comments on the other one got so long.

I'll start by summarizing: Yesterday, a source sent me these pics of Sam and a woman leaving Sam's hotel in New York. She said she didn't see the woman's face because by the time she realized it was Sam, they had already turned. Here are the pics I posted 👇

Some people thought it was his handler at the Premiere and she was also his handler at 92Y (I'm guessing she's a Starz handler). But side by side pics show the blonde leaving the hotel with Sam was NOT the handler. 👇

Some people thought the hotel mystery woman could have been the blonde woman working the Tribeca Film Festival, who was seen filming Sam. But, nope. Some eagle eyed followers noticed the hotel mystery woman has tattoos on both ankles, the red carpet woman has no tattoos on her ankles. 👇

The NEW info I got is this. Someone DMed me that some fans had taken a selfie with Sam in New York yesterday. I'm not allowed to post or share the full picture but what is of note is not the fans with Sam, but the reflection in one of the fan's sunglasses. I know, I know, but this reflection is pretty clear. No need to guess or squint hahaha. The reflection shows the blonde woman that was with Sam leaving the hotel. She is wearing sunglasses like Sam was. So, I still can't identify who she is. The pic was taken on Spring Street, and the specific place where it was taken is a 5 minute walk from Sam's New York hotel. This is all I was given to share. 👇 For now...

You can see on the right, the fan raising her hand, holding her phone to take the selfie with Sam. And on the left, the mystery hotel woman. Wonder why the mystery hotel woman didn't take the pic. 🤔

Soooo, she's still a mystery. If I get more info that I can post, I'll update here.

PS. For those asking if Sam is with Karina Elle since they're both in New York at the same time. Nope. In fact, today, Karina was in Montauk, NY working. 👇

And Sam is scheduled to return to filming The Couple Next Door tomorrow.

Oh, and Chloé Montana is back in Paris with her male best friend and a couple of female friends.

I'll keep you guys posted if I find out anything else. 😘

Update

CW: discussion of trauma (the trauma was a bad car accident)

I was able to pay for my dog's vet appointment and her medicine thanks to the person who paypal'd me ❤️❤️❤️ She isn't happy about having to take medicine again but hopefully this will be the last round, it's pretty much just probiotics and something to settle her stomach because the antibiotics really did a number on her tummy.

My hands ache from the crash but it's no worse than the soreness after crocheting for several hours. I can do some crocheting but I find thicker yarn much easier and less painful to work with right now. That said, I got a bunch of chenille yarn a while back and I have some larger plush versions of my Ralsei amogus dolls in the works. The first one is almost done, I just have to assemble and attach the hat. Will post a pic when he's done. I want to have at least 2 each with and without squeakers made and then I might reopen my Etsy shop and list them. They will cost more due to the cost of materials, but I'll probably mostly have dolls made of the chenille yarn for a while, at least until I can work with normal yarn without pain within minutes again. I'm hoping to sell a couple by Tuesday because I have another chiropractic appointment that day I'll need to pay for and my husband doesn't get paid again until Friday.

I'm still trying to process what happened. I'm seeing my therapist tomorrow and I will be discussing it with her. This therapist is new to me, my previous one that I had for a few years left the place I'm with and is now working elsewhere. We've only had like 2 sessions but she seems nice. It's just a little frustrating having to break in a new therapist all over again but not really a problem so I'm not worried.

I drove today, to take my dog to the vet. It was scary. I didn't realize how paranoid I would be of other drivers, fully expecting anyone and everyone to whip out in front of me when they're waiting to exit a parking lot to the road or suddenly veer into my lane when they're right beside me and I panicked every time I saw them. It took a lot of self control to not slam on the brakes and to remind myself that other people are not going to do things like that. I have to remember I know how to drive safely and most people are not going to be so reckless as to do the dangerous things my brain is expecting them to do. My anxiety around driving is almost back to where it was while I was still very new at it, terrified to be on the road with other people and having no trust in them and even less trust in myself. I have to build up my confidence again and I have no idea how long it will take.

I have to say, getting hit by one huge trauma all at once sure feels different from the trauma I'm used to, which is the kind that builds up over many years in a toxic and dysfunctional family. It's kind of surreal, I find myself wondering if it was all a dream but then I see the bruises on my legs and feel the ache in my palms and how stiff and sore my body still is even after a chiropractic appointment and see the empty space where I would have parked my vehicle and I have to remember it really happened. I get this weird chill that seeps up the back of my head like cold water in my hair when I remember it. And yeah, I'm grateful I walked away with nothing worse than bruises and stuff my chiropractor fixes literally all the time anyway, but I wish it didn't happen.

It's all such a mess. Right now I'm just trying to focus on keeping myself fed with good food and busy with things that can make some money. I'm making chili tomorrow because it's one of the less expensive things I can make, and also I could use some comfort food after the week I've had. And maybe the familiar routine of cooking the beans will help soothe my brain. I only use dry beans as I can't stand the texture of canned beans. Cooking them isn't difficult or complicated, just time consuming and I think the 2 or 3 hours it'll take to cook them will do me some good.

It's after midnight and I'm exhausted, so I'm gonna try to get some sleep. Goodnight, and stay determined.

❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜

Hiii!! I watched today's episode a bit later bc i washed my hair then braided it (i can braid better than this but anyway)

So it's time for...

Through the Looking Glass Ruins

Uhm... i decided i wanted to capture every moment when Lumity blushed and... well... this post might be a bit long bc of that

Oh, yes Gus, i agree

This is such a mood

I like your rug btw

And he has a Bad Girl Coven shirt!! As he should

I want one too T_T

So it's obvious to everyone atp that Luz is crushing on Amity (this sentence started off as a question but it's more like a fact actually)

Yea i get you Luz, wanting to spend as much time with your crush as possible... we know how it is

Gus joined the meme face gang!!!

I will honestly use all the meme face pics their expressions are top tier

I love how good Amity is with kids 😔 she treats them the way she wanted to be treated

And Luz- you're kinda sorta in love aren't ya?

This frame is so fanart worthy 🤌🏼 pls someone draw a pretty fanart of this (i wanna do it but idk if i caaaan)

They're so cute!! 😭😭😭 little babies

I wanna squeeze them and put them in my pocket and take them everywhere with me ^^

No but this was actually so deep- imagine getting a job where you can be yourself and you get a room too where you can be away from your VERY TROUBLED family and then the one who gave you all that says they're disappointed in you... yes i would wanna cry in the corner of my room too

All that is now that taken away from her and she has to face her parents about it

I mean don't get me wrong i'm not blaming Luz here since she wanted to back off twice and she made it clear that she doesn't wanna push Amity

One more thing before we move on to the reblog... i can't help but think how sad Amity felt knowing that Luz going home is smth inevitable and it'd happen rather sooner than she'd want it to. She still helps her ofc bc why wouldn't she? I hc that her love language is gift giving and acts of service (not just these but mainly) so she'd want to do anything and everything she can to show she cares about Luz. Omg i wanna go on a rant about this- maybe tomorrow??

Anyways i'll be back with more soon!

Favourite Photos of 2024 - part two!!

Book of Circus Ciel

Anime Boston my beloved... Zaria (zap_._poprock on Instagram) and I wandered around that mall for probably way to long getting photos for each other and this one. Is my absolute favourite of all of them. Instagram followers will know this one as one of my profile pics for a long time. Idk what it is - it just slays.

Ouran Group

RAHHH THIS GROUP!! We spent SO LONG at the CTcon professional photos booth getting some of the most ridiculous photos ever and this one is simply the best to come out of that shoot. Hopefully we'll get this group together again next year- though our table definitely needs some improvements.

Aang

Idk man anime boston slayed and this photo has plants in it I like plants- plus Ivana (baby_peaches237 on Instagram) knows her way around a camera and knows how to get those good angles!!

Ciel

Did I forget to charge my camera battery and just went to Spirit Halloween covered in blood?

Maybe?

IT'S FINE the whole shoot looked fantastic - someday I will do a full shoot with this Ciel look and a Sebastian cosplayer (hello gf what if we add this to the list). The editing was really fun to do too! I will definitely be doing more edits like this in the future because my god does it pay off.

Rusalka

GO LISTEN TO @forgetmenauts they're FANTASTIC - @ladydragonkiller had made this shawl based off Rusalka and The Sheperd Girl and asked me to model it for them. This photo is just so ethereal and spooky... and the rushes!!!

Lust

I hope Maddie (losingcat.cos on Instagram) knows that I would kill for them purely because of this photo - it's so pretty. Lust was genuinely such a fun cosplay (minus me breaking my shoes and us getting harassed by security guards and Terrificon just. Being weird) and she'll definitely be coming back next year :3 Hopefully I'll actually make a stencil for her tattoo before then though, freehanding that thing was not fun to do. I'll probably end up redoing the gloves first though...

Stolas

The final photo... my favourite sad gay bird. No I am not caught up, I'm like three episodes behind on helluva - Stolas is simply the best bird there is and this PHOTO. It took so many tries to get the tears absolutely perfect, I ended up stuck with streaks of irritated skin on my face for about a week from all the eyedrops I used. It was absolutely worth it though...

I will not be posting here tomorrow and on New Year's day, but after that we're diving full force into the cosplay mess that will be 2025! See y'all then <3

[aohisworld]

i hope your business grows more too 'cuz they're all so damn pretty. and also yass to self employment at 18 cuz go get your money gurlll!

and ngl idk what lugaw is but i googled it and it looks delicious :3 glad you had a nice meal <3

you sent me pics of the inceptio arcamun and concessio bracelets one time we wera talking in discord actually! i don't have insta but i'll reblog ur stuff if you do post any on tumblr! (i'm glad someone gets to enjoy wearing them)

my college starts from tomorrow and though i won't be coming online as often as b4, it feels exciting for me to be able to get into a routine after a year of staying home. i just hope i get time to write stuff for minhypen 'cuz i've only just gotten started with minyoung. there's still a lot to come <3

I’m sure you’ll have time my moon mootie, if I could get past my last year of highschool with Aohi, you can get thru College with Minyoung hehehe, i honestly can’t wait for more works from you and her adventures, I bet Aohi would love to meet your oc, they’d be the best of found sisters 🥹

I honestly am NOT sure if I should post my stuff here, would it get me more attention for buyers? Yes, but Tumblr is very spread out so I’m not sure if anyone wants to buy some at all!!

In other words, you’re going to do great in college, and you’re goings to have the bestest fun your young adult mind is ever gonna have ya know??? Love you lots, and I’m here all the way in Canada supporting you, my moon mootie 🫶

[st0rmgr3y]

post no.2

pic of what tomorrows meals are looking like ^^ too close to 1000 cals i might leave some of my lunch

got my mom to buy me a fitness watch so i can track my steps without having to have my phone on me, i need to get into a healthy sleep schedule as well so that i can start exercising in the morning as well, if anyone uses the robertas gym 1000 calorie vids could u tell me if they're any good? pretty happy with today i definitely was tempted by some cake but i did some jumping jacks any time i thought about it. tomorrow is gonna be pretty hard since i have college and that means i'll have to eat lunch around friends and then ik dinner is gonna be alot as well since theres gravy and idk how to estimate the calories in that, plus veggies cause i dunno what they're gonna be yet.

Be a Child

These two cuties are certainly having fun like they're children!

The fig maker was inspired by these wonderful pictures from Zhehan:

The text reads (MTL) "Can you be more mature like me?"

And of course, there's Gong Jun on his yellow tricycle from his Go Fighting Season 8 appearance (being chased here by way too many people!).

Here's the entire episode 4 with English subs if you want to watch it, it's well worth it. If you haven't already, all of his episodes in Season 8 are absolutely delightful.

Terrible! This set arrived with Zhehan's tricycle broken! You can see where the main bar broke right off there. Luckily, Junjun's yellow trike was ok.

Here they are in all their ready-to-cycle glory!

We're doing the upside down and back around photos first this time, while the glue is drying on the poor broken tricycle.

Here they are, all bright and cheerful! I just realized I needed to click in Junjun's hands a bit more on the trike and push him down a bit so he's not quite as ready to pop a wheelie.

You can see here how his hands aren't quite snapped into the handlebars, which is why his feet are up like that. I did a good job on Zhehan's though (she says plaintively), which I'm happy about because I had to be really careful not to torque the glued trike and re-break it while trying to snap his hands onto the bars.

They're so cute! They balance remarkably well, which is some pretty great fig engineering. Especially considering how big Junjun's hat is!

Speaking of, that hat's a beast. I noticed just now that some of the print on Junjun's shirt has repeated itself, and I initially read it as Go Fig Fighting, because of course I did.

The wheels don't move on the tricycles, which is just as well, as I'd probably wake up to find the figs moving all over the place on my shelf as the house shifts here and there (the Western US is earthquake country, after all).

The fig maker went to town on Zhehan's spiky hair! I like it. I also like the details on the tricycles here, with the loop on the back of Zhehan's and just the little seat there for Junjun. I'm kind of glad he didn't have a back on his, he might have gotten hurt when he was hanging onto it for dear life on the show.

I continue to be charmed by Junjun's enormous hat here. Any fig of him with any of his sun hats from Go Fighting is just pure serotonin to me!

Hehehe, Zhehan's expression here is too funny! I like that particular maniac laugh some fig makers give him, it's fantastic. He's so expressive!

Huh, actually, Junjun's right hand looks pretty clicked in here to me. Maybe I pushed it down some when I was rotating them around for the pics.

Delightful! They really got Junjun's hair down for this - his hair was on the longer side for this since he was growing it out for Fox Spirit Matchmaker. You can also see they got his black sun sleeves extending down on his arms.

You can really see the texture in Zhehan's hair here from the top down angle.

And again here, and Junjun's enormous hat! Hehe.

Some really cute art of the two of them rolling down a grassy hill. It's the same here on the box art:

And look, you have a preview for the Mooncake figs! Rather than keep you in suspense now that you've seen those, I'll do those tomorrow. Come back and check them out, they're super cute!

Material: PVC

Fig Count: 295

Scene Count: 23

Rating: Childlike delight!

[catrakomtrikru]

You know, since I'm on the topic of personal trauma and music saving me have another post. This is going to be a long one.

When I was in my mid 20s my mom got sick and went to the hospital. She almost died. And it might not be shocking after my last post but dad and his side of the family were no help. They didn't even want to take me and my brother to see her. I wasn't working yet and couldn't drive. And my brother has some mental health problems that make it hard for him to do either.

Well fast forward and she comes home but we ended up moving to a cheaper place because now money is tight. One night I'm at work, I was doing security at some apartments and I get a call. It's mom saying she got thrown in jail because the tags on the car were out. We end getting the bail money a few days later but now we have no car. Which makes it harder for me and mom to get to work. We mostly ate of my brother's ssi money. And guess what? We end up losing the house too.

So now we're staying with this other family in a falling apart house that smells like dog shit. We knew them because I went to first grade with the older daughter and mom and her mom stayed friends. While there we had no privacy, people were having sex where everyone could see and one night the mom's boyfriend attacked me.

The next day my older brother and his family drive three hours to come get us. This was in 2020. I'm still living with them, and I don't plan on moving. I did end up going through a shitty break up and I git sexually and otherwise harassed by a coworker. And after everything that happened it was a lot on my mental health. I felt like I'd never get better.

So to help with the feelings one day I'm just on YouTube listening to music and this cover of misery business shows up. I check it out and it's really good. I took up the singer and it turned out she was in a band, and they're local.

So April of 2023 I go see this band play at pop punk nite and I get to meet the girl, her name is Chaney. She was so sweet and she's still sweet to me now. We stayed in touch over Instagram and have seen each other several times since meeting last year.

Through her I've made sooo many other amazing friends too. I'm pretty much friends with all the local bands in the scene now, they all hug me and sometimes give me free staff. I had one guy message me asking for the videos I took at his show the other night and posted one on Instagram. And they always dm me asking me to go to shows.

The first House parties, Chaney's band went on tour I went when they had their hometown show and she literally ran to me, jumped on me, and threw her arms around my neck. I caught her and hugged her back. She also recommended the shop I got my most recent tattoo at.

But yeah, this community saved me and gave me a family I needed. I love them ❤️

Here's some pics of me and some of my favorite people.

Photo credits in case you want to check the bands out.

1. Me and Chaney from House parties

2. Me, Jarrett and Zak from offended by everything.

3. Me and Colton from waiting 4 April

1/28-29/2024

sunday - monday

we moved a ton of stuff today.

we have the bed, some shelves, a table and desk, and a bunch of books + dvds + games + clothes and whatever else, bathroom stuff skincare stuff, moved over now. so basically we are in, as in, we will never sleep in our old home again, the change is made and final and it's really sad for me. i also spent like 2 hours just scrubbing the floor here it was so filthy and maybe there's just something wrong with me but it does not feel clean enough to me. there was still food stuck to the floor in the kitchen. whoever moved from here did a terrible job picking up after themselves, and the sink in the bathroom is just terribly fucked up, like, i pulled the plunger to fill it with water, and the rod came out, it was secured to nothing, i pulled on the stopper, the thing in the middle of the sink, it just like, literally came out, it was broken and sitting in there. fucked up place. i know i just need to adjust. i'm like an animal, i'm really stressed by moving and i need to spend a whole few months here to ever be at ease totally i think, everything stresses and scares me, i am sad that we are losing the view we had, it was so pretty, you could see so much of the sky. you can see some here, and the doors of our last place, they were big windows basically, so we could see a lot outside. privacy i guess was hard in a way but i liked being able to just look out there.

there is good stuff about this place, it's not like i really hate it, there's a lot of frustrating stuff but the extra space is gonna be nice. i guess we will also be nervous about going out at night here, i have a friend who'd hang out with people who live in apartments around here and all the women who'd hang out w/ him at a bar 5 minutes of walking away would all get ubers or whatever, out of caution. on some level i think stuff like that is like, paranoia and stuff. idk. i get the fear but i don't think most people out here want to fuck with anyone especially, or i and my gf have grown up relatively vigilant, but we also don't want to chance it i guess. like i said the other night, no one was really around campus, especially when i went there, now it's like, we're just totally in a residential zone, but i think at worst it's just catcalls we're going to experience. that's everywhere, though.

tomorrow i might post some pics i took in here, they're weird, though (intentional).

i rlly need to sleep soon but i have been still trying to get the song right. i think this is the closest, the guitar tones sorta match eachother re: frequency response which is good, they should, cuz guitars usually share a lot of that in common, even when they sound crazy or whatever. i also figured i'd try something weird and put a spring reverb plugin in the chain of distortions and stuff, and it sounds really good, it's really not even doing reverb stuff it's just using the algorithm in the thing for something weird. i like to imagine it's making it sound like there's strings interacting with space but it just adds a nice scrape-y quality. i might be using this on a lot of things.

listening now the right guitar just needs to lose some of the low end stuff, i can do that at the end i think, it's just a bit too much, and thennn idk. it should sound fine... i hope. i'll do that tomorrow. now i just have to sleep so,

The Infamous Dance Pt. 2 (Kodoku’s Lilacs, The Life of a Flowstar, No. 102)

So yesterday, I told part of a story that happened back in October of last year. If you want to see what happened with details, peep last post. If you don't want to, someone posted a pic of the principal in a gc, and I made a "video" with it. This is part two of the story that I could be telling at campfires since this is like the only story I can really remember lol. Here you go.

About a few days after the videos were made, I was in 6th period, so this would've been my reading class, and I get called into the office. Now I was thinking that they're was two different options I thought I was potentially called into the office. One of them I forgot, and the other one was for the videos. I still remember just sitting outside the office just having anxiety because I was sitting out there for a long period of time. And then, I get called into the office.

When I went into the office, there was the principal and this lady, who is a coach. I think we were greeting each other, and they pulled up an Instagram post that included the videos, and I admitted to making the videos, but not the account. At first, I'm pretty sure we were laughing about it, and then it got serious.

Then, they decided that they wanted to search my phone, and me then not knowing it can be illegal for them to search my phone, I let them in it. I let them see the group chat and who was in it, they wouldn't let me look at my phone with them scrolling through it, and as they were doing it, I just wanted to die. I still somewhat regret them do that as it had to involve my friends, but when I think about it, it probably was a good idea to considering if I didn't, I probably would've served my sentence.

Principal calls my mom over, and the coach was like "How does it feel if we did this to you?" Like bro, it's a little video that may be a little embarrassing, but it don't need to be taken this far. After I kept looking at what they're doing, they sent me outside of the principal room, and I remember wanting to just die there lol. The throat just tightening up because I thought I may have fucked my reputation at the time, I felt like I was more embarrassed than they were lol.

I'll keep the story going on Pt. 3 so I can still have something to post. I should've said this in the beginning, I may misremember or just not remember stuff at all because my brain is just that dumb. But stay tuned, tomorrow might be the last part of the story. Other than that, goodnight!

Sincerely, Kodoku.

dear diary;

it was pretty sunny again today which is cool. i didn't need my jumper too much, which was slightly inconvenient as it's a bit big and a struggle to fit into my bag. fun fact; i at some point didn't like how my 12yo brother and i were the same size (i'm older than him!!! i'm meant to be bigger!!!!) so when we were uniform shopping i got my mom to buy me a jumper that i have found is comically large on me. my gf teases me for it. atleast it's warm tho!!

we had a science test today, and i think i did pretty well!! i was paying a lot more attention in class than usual and studied quite a bit the previous night, and i think it paid off!! i'm rlly proud of myself and i'm going to try to do the same thing for the math test on monday. usually i don't study for math test and don't make the back-to-front a4 page of notes we're allowed to use during the test and score pretty well anyways, but i'm looking forward to seeing just how well i can do if i properly study!! i rlly wannt get my shit together this semester-

during HaSS class (humanities basically, this term it's geography) an entire half of the class was away! the funniest part was that it was the half of the seating plan i sit on... needless to say, it was very empty on my side of the classroom T^T

english class we had another library lesson which was awesome!! i kept reading the fault in our stars, and it's getting really good!! that book is so melodramatic i swear- anyways, there was a bit of relationship drama between two of my friends, which made me very glad that my bf and i don't argue - i like how we actually talk any problems out that we may have rather than make a huge deal out of it and get the whole friend group involved and have our feelings really hurt- no hate to those friends of course, but what they're going through seems very stressful and i'm not sure if my weak little anxiety-ridden self could manage that-

anyways, i started crocheting some heart squares!! i'll post some pics later as well as a link to the tutorial i used. crocheting is so fun and therapeutic, i love it!! :3

it's getting a bit late and i have work tomorrow (my shifts start at 7:30 and finish at 12 on both saturdays and sundays T^T) so i'll have to end this here, but i'll post further updates tomorrow afternoon!

love, kitty 💕

Ordinary Human (Part 3/8)

June 12, 2022

Notes - I should have mentioned this before, but the superpowers I’ve given each of my characters coincide with some Marvel characters and, while not all of them have the same names as the characters I've modeled them after, they do have very similar powers. I'll make a post either today or tomorrow about my characters and the characters I feel they're similar to. Not only will that make it easier to piece together for you when you're reading it, but it will also make a coherent list for me which I definitely need! 🤣

Don't underestimate the powers you hold within, young one.

Vivien's hands glowed as we watched the version of me that came from her world for a moment longer. Soon, we were back in the elevator and she was moving her hand from my head. “I’m so confused,” I said quietly as she leaned away from me.

“Don’t be,” she said as simply as possible. I really wished it was that simple. “We have other things to worry about right now. Is there any way you can somehow fly or throw cars around?”

“I wish!” I exclaimed. “Then I could help Butchy and Miles at the shop.”

Vivien gave me a confused smirk before shaking her head. “I don’t understand how you’re so close to Butchy.”

“What do you mean?” I asked as she pressed the button that let the elevator start moving again.

Vivien shrugged. “It’s just, in this world, Butchy is just our trainer. I don’t get how you’re close to him in your world.”

“He’s like our brother. When Miles moved to Florida, he met Butchy and they’ve been close ever since,” I said. I stalled for a minute as I thought over what that meant. “Does that mean he and Miles aren’t close either?”

“I’m not sure,” Vivien claimed, “but my guess would be no. They don’t really get the chance to chat as far as I’m aware.”

I sighed. Of course, I just had to end up in the one universe where everything sucks. “So, why aren’t you and Royce together here?” I asked. “In my world, you guys are crazy for each other.”

It was Vivien’s turn to sigh, “To put it plainly, he likes someone else.”

“What?!” I questioned loudly.

Vivien’s hand landed on my mouth for a minute before she moved it away and began to explain. “When we were first paired up on the team, we were super close and I thought he had a thing for me because I had a thing for him. I didn’t know at the time that he could feel I liked him.”

“What do you mean?”

She turned to me before straightening her posture. “Right, you’re new here. Um, Royce has the ability to control people’s feelings. He can feel your emotions from pretty far away, but can only control them close up.”

“Oh,” I said. “So, what happened?”

“Well, there’s not much else,” she said. “He figured out I liked him around the same time I figured out he could read my feelings. I didn’t like that he could’ve been making me like him so I learned to put up a blank wall so he couldn’t see my emotions anymore without me wanting him to.”

“So how do you know he likes someone else?” I asked. “Maybe he likes you and you just don’t know it yet.”

“You’ll see,” she replied vaguely as the elevator pulled to a stop and the doors opened. Vivien stepped into the hall and looked down it before gesturing for me to join her. “Follow me. With any luck, we can get there before your brothers and we can talk to either Butchy or your mom about what happened.”

I stalled in the middle of the hall. “My mom is here?”

Vivien turned to me with a raised eyebrow. “Why wouldn’t she be?”

I took in a deep breath before saying, “In my world, she died when I was five.”

“What?” Vivien asked. “How?”

“We were out in a freak snowstorm and her car spun out on black ice and hit a tree,” I explained. “I was the only one with her when it happened and that’s one of my only memories of her.”

“Oh, Bentley,” Vivien said. “I’m so sorry.”

“It’s alright.” I cleared my throat and pulled my necklace from under my shirt. “Miles gave me her locket around Christmas last year. It’s got pictures of her and us from around when the accident happened so I have a picture of her with me all the time.”

“Well,” Vivien said after she took in a breath, “today you might get to talk with her. Do you want to?”

I quickly nodded. “I can’t remember the last time I heard her voice, Viv. I want to remember it this time.”

"Alrighty, then." Vivien smiled and offered me a hand to take which I did. “Well, let’s get to the training room, then. Maybe she’ll be there.”

I followed Vivien down the hall until we got to a room with the number four above the door. She pushed open the door and held it for me before leading me through the room. I spotted Butchy talking with two girls on the far side of the room and Vivien led me right to him. It was then that I found the two girls were Lela and Mick.

“Hey, big guy,” Vivien said with a smirk.

“Vivien, Bentley,” Butchy replied curtly. “Please meet two of the newest members of our groups.” He quickly gestured to Lela, who waved. “This is my sister, Lela, or, as you may know, Disco. Her group just got bumped to Level 7.”

“Nice to meet you,” Lela said with a bright smile. It sounded wrong hearing that from her when I’d known her for so long. “Butchy’s told me a lot about you guys.”

“Likewise,” Vivien said with a smile. “Congrats on the promotion.

Butchy then turned to Mick, saying, “This is Makana Birch, she just transferred from the California sector. Codename, Wave Breaker.”

I turned my attention to Mick, only to find her watching me curiously. “Nice to meet you,” I offered.

“Same to you,” she replied. “Sorry for staring, but you look very familiar.”

“He was in the fight against Inferno last night,” Butchy explained. 

Mick nodded with a soft hum. “That must be where I know him from, then.” Her head turned quickly toward the other side of the room and I saw her eyes shimmer kind of like when you hold a glass of rootbeer in the sun before she turned to Butchy again. “Excuse me, my parents need me for a moment.”

Butchy nodded and Mick turned, catching my eye one last time and nodding to me before walking away. Butchy then turned to us with a small smile. “Now, what was it you came to me for?”

“We need to talk with either you or Mrs. Murphy,” Vivien explained. “It’s urgent.”

Butchy looked between us for a moment before telling Lela to go back to her group for a minute. Lela said goodbye to us before walking off, humming a song to herself. At least this version of her hadn’t changed much. Butchy crossed his arms and leaned against the wall before saying a simple, “Shoot.”

“This isn’t our Bentley,” Vivien explained. “He’s a Bentley, but he’s from a different universe.”

Butchy shook his head. “Look, kids, if this is how you’re trying to get out of training, it’s not your best plan.” 

“We’re not trying to get out of training,” Vivien said with a scoff.

“It’s true,” I said. Butchy’s eyes met mine and I almost jumped. He had two different colored eyes - one brown and one dark blue. “I swear. I can tell you everything about my world. Vivien can show it to you. Right, Viv?”

Vivien nodded and reached up, sending a pulse of green light into Butchy’s head as her eyes began glowing the same color. It didn’t surprise me as much when Butchy’s eyes began glowing too. I guess mine had done the same thing when she went into my head. In almost no time at all, she pulled back and the glow in their eyes stopped all at once.

Butchy’s attention turned back to me as he sighed, “Do you have any abilities?”

“I like to think I’m very artistic,” I offered.

Butchy smiled at me and placed a hand on my arm. “I bet you’re a wonderful artist, kiddo, but I meant magical abilities. Can you fly?”

“No, and before you ask, I can’t throw cars either,” I replied. “Vivien already asked me that.”

“Do you know how to do hand-to-hand combat?” Butchy tried in a hopeful tone.

“I sometimes play fight with my brothers back home,” I answered. “Does that count?

Butchy let out a long breath. “Alright, we’ll try it for a few. I should bring you up to your mother since she probably knows how to deal with this sort of thing, but I know she’s got meetings until this afternoon. So, I guess you can either sit on the sidelines and watch or you can try to get some training in. The choice is yours.”

I looked around the room. Mick and her parents were talking with Lela in one corner. Miles and a few other people were talking, standing by a line of punching bags. Then there was Royce. He was sitting on a stack of thick exercise mats with some red-headed girl who looked vaguely familiar and was too busy talking to notice that Royce wasn’t paying her any attention. He was too busy watching me, Viv, and Butchy to even bother listening to the girl who sat right next to him. I raised a hand and offered him a small wave and all he did was give me a short nod before turning away. Maybe he wasn’t as mad at me as he was earlier.

“Who would I train with?” I asked as I turned my attention back to Butchy.

“Normally, you would train with one of your brothers,” he said, “but after last night, I don’t know if that’s a good idea.”

“I still don’t know what happened last night,” I sighed. “I know Vivien said we fought, but-”

“Fought is an understatement,” Butchy cut in. “I heard the yelling from four floors up. You jumped in front of Royce and got hit by a weapon called the Ring of Fire. It has the same heat level as one of the sun’s solar flares and it should have killed you, but Miles said you were able to walk it off and keep fighting.”

“Is that why they were so mad?” I asked. “Because their version of me could’ve died?”

Butchy nodded. “I’m surprised they even let you out of the apartment.”

I thought it over for a while. It made sense. If they were so worried about me, it only makes sense that they’d be mad at me for not caring if I would be alive or dead. “Can I train with Royce, then?” I asked.

Butchy looked worried, but that changed when he glanced over at Royce. “Royce wants to talk with you, but he’s not sure how the outcome will be. He doesn’t think you should be training after getting hurt last night, but he won’t say anything since he doesn’t want to cause a scene.”

“How do you know?” I asked.

“Butchy can read minds when he looks at someone, among a lot of other things,” Vivien stated. “He’s kind of like your mom’s five-star general, in a way.”

“Cool,” I breathed.

“You should be fine to train with him if you explain what’s going on,” Butchy stated as he turned back to us. “Vivien, stay with them, yeah?”

“Yeah, sure thing, boss man,” Viv said with a smile before taking my hand and leading me to the opposite side of the room. “Now, when we’re in the ring, you need to distract him. Get him so distracted by you that he doesn’t notice I’m behind him, then I’ll hit him with the same vision I gave Butchy.”

“You think it’ll be that easy?” I asked.

“If you can think of something that will shock him enough,” she said. “Maybe act like he hurt you. The other Bentley got injured on his left side last night and refused to let Royce use his powers to heal him, so if you can act like he hit you in the same spot, I bet it would do the trick. Maybe it would even get Miles to come over and we’d get a two-for-one combo.”

“Isn’t that a bit cruel?” I questioned.

“Maybe, but so was how they treated you after you saved Royce’s ass.” Vivien sighed, “I was there. I would’ve done the same thing if I’d been able to.”

I nodded. I bet she would’ve. Regardless of their relationship status, she was still his friend. Vivien took my hand again and began walking while I looked around. Would I be able to distract him if I had no powers? I couldn’t fly like his brother could and I certainly couldn’t lift heavy things and throw them around like they were baby toys. Maybe I’d try Viv’s method. It was the only thing I could think of, apart from just talking to him, that could actually work.

As we began walking toward Royce, Viv said to me, “See the girl with Royce?” I nodded. “That’s the girl I was telling you about earlier - Serena, also known as Siren. She’s a bitch, but she’s always clinging to Royce so I can only imagine they like each other.”

So that was why she looked familiar! She was the girl Royce had gone out with a while back. I guess things didn't really change much between dimensions if the look of irritation in Royce’s eyes told me anything. He looked ready to send her flying into a brick wall, but I wasn’t about to tell Vivien that before getting her into the ring. “Well, too bad for her. We need him now.”

As we neared Royce and Serena, Vivien coughed to get Royce’s attention. “You ready to train?” she asked him.

Before Royce got the chance to say anything at all, Serena said, “He’s training with me today, O’Brian. Why don’t you and the kid go train with someone else?”

There was a noticeable spark of green in Vivien’s eyes as she said, “He’s training with us on Butchy’s orders, Sullivan. If you want to argue over it, you can take it up with the boss.”

Royce quickly got to his feet and followed us over to a small, enclosed arena that lit up as we opened the glass door. As we stepped inside, Serena let out a shriek of frustration before Butchy told her to shut it. Once we were in the arena, an overhead speaker buzzed. As Vivien led us into the middle of the square-shaped ring, it began talking; “Mind Mistress, level 8. Figment, level 8. Psionic, level 8. Training will commence once you take your places.”

“Which one am I?” I asked Vivien quietly.

“You’re Figment. At first, you flew so fast that people thought they were imagining things so you went with Figment,” Vivien answered in a whisper. “I’m Mind Mistress and Royce is Psionic.”

Then, a moment after Vivien had finished speaking, the voice in the speaker came back, saying, “Siren, level 7.”

I turned around and found Serena smirking at us as she entered the ring. The glass walls of the arena blackened as the door shut behind Serena. Maybe Vivien could take out some of her frustration out on Serena while I handled Royce. I turned to Vivien and said, “Change of plans.”

“What do you mean?” she asked.

“You can take on Serena, right?” Vivien nodded. “Good. Do what you can to her while I distract him. When you get the chance, take it. I’ll say whatever I can to throw him off.”

“Got it,” Vivien said with a small smile. “You’re a pretty smart kid.”

I smiled. I didn’t hear that often from people outside of my little circle of family and friends. I'd only known this Vivien for a few hours, but she was almost exactly like the one back home. Maybe that was why it was so easy to like her. “Thanks.”

The voice above the ring began to count down from twenty, so Vivien instructed me to go to the corner of the ring that was opposite Royce and told me to do whatever I could think of to hold him off. I wished her good luck and took the corner next to hers, meeting gazes with Royce. He looked kind of nervous and it didn’t take me long to figure out why as I remembered what Butchy had said. Royce didn’t want me to train because the other me got hurt and, according to Vivien, hadn’t let him heal it. He didn’t want to fight me. Maybe I could just talk with him instead.

The countdown finally reached one and a buzzer sounded, allowing us to fight. I jumped as Vivien cast a beam of green magic in Serena’s path, slamming her into the wall behind her. I quickly turned back to Royce as I saw his eyes turn a shade of bright orange - his favorite color. Before he could do anything, though, I decided to speak up, “Can we talk?”

The glow in his eyes faded a bit as he said, “You want to talk? Really? Now, of all times?”

“Yeah,” I replied, hoping the shrug I sent him could be taken as a good thing. “We can still spar and stuff, but I had time to think stuff over and I think I’m ready.”

Royce nodded. “Okay,” he said. “We can talk it over while we go at it, yeah?”

“Sure,” I replied softly. Before I could even think twice, I had to duck as a burst of orange magic came my way.

“Good dodge,” Royce complimented as I took a few steps to the side.

“Thanks,” I breathed, lunging at him. He quickly blocked my incoming fist with a small orange shield. “You too. Now, I have something important to tell you so you’re going to have to bear with me, okay?” 

Royce nodded before taking a step closer to me and attempting to latch onto my arm with a glowing hand. “Go for it.”

“I’m not your real brother,” I said quickly, ducking under the arm he swung and moving behind him.

“What are you talking about?” Royce asked as he turned back to me.

“I’m Bentley, but I’m from a different universe,” I explained. “You see, I went to sleep in a cabin that our aunt and uncle own, but I woke up this morning in a different place and-”

Royce huffed as he gripped my wrist and pulled me closer to him, whispering to me, “Bentley, cut the shit. You’re not going to get out of all of this by making up stories.”

“I’m not making up stories, that’s the thing!” I exclaimed. “I swear, I’m telling you the truth.”

“Then why don’t I believe you?” Royce questioned as the glow in his hand disappeared and I pushed him away with my free hand so we were staring at each other again. The orange in his eyes was still very much present, but it wasn’t as bright as it had been.

“I don’t know, but I’m trying to explain it to you,” I sighed, keeping my arms close to my chest in case I needed to block an attack from him. “I don’t know what else to tell you. I’m not your little brother. I belong to a different world.”

“Oh yeah? Prove it,” he ordered, swinging an arm over my head as I ducked.

“How am I supposed to do that?” I asked incredulously, jabbing forward as I did. “If you drop me from the side of the building, I’ll go splat because I can’t fly. If you toss a car at me, I’ll get crushed to death because I won’t be able to lift it. What do you want from me, Royce?”

Royce turned a kick into a spin as I backed away from him. He scoffed, “A little honesty would be nice.”

“I’m being honest with you!” I insisted. “Man, if this is how you guys treat this version of me, it’s no wonder he decided to run away the first chance he got.”

“What are you talking about?” he questioned, sending a punch in the direction of my face. I only felt it graze my nose as I wasn’t quick enough to move, but it was enough to jerk my head to the side. He was a lot stronger than he looked. 

“I already told you!” I huffed as I faced him again, swiping quickly at my nose to make sure it wasn't broken or anything before returning to my defensive stance. “I’m not your brother. He’s in my world and I’m in his. It’s not that hard to understand!”

Royce rolled his eyes. “Enough of this bullshit!” he yelled as he took a step in my direction. Almost instantly, I could feel his anger and frustration. It was thick and heavy making it hard to breathe as the air around the two of us seemed to get warmer. In a way, it kind of felt like when you have to run the mile on the track for gym class when it's humid out. It wasn't the greatest feeling. “You’re not from some other world, Bentley. You’re still in trouble for all the stupid shit you did yesterday.”

I took a step back, sparing a quick glance at Vivien and seeing her deliver a blow to Serena that sent the redhead to the floor in a heap. “I am from another world! Vivien had to explain to me why the brothers I was having a good day with yesterday were so ticked off with me today. Besides, if the other me saved your life, was it really all that dumb?”

“It was so stupid, Bentley, just like you!” he yelled, reaching out for my wrist again as his eyes began glowing orange again.

“I am not stupid!” I argued loudly, dodging Royce’s attempts and taking a step closer to him as I watched the glow in his eyes spread. “You’re the one being stupid. You’re yelling at the wrong person!”

“No,” he replied with a dry laugh as I saw Vivien approaching us, “I’m yelling at a stubborn fucking idiot who refuses to admit he was wrong!”

“I’m not a fucking idiot!” I screamed, taking another step closer and pushing him away before throwing my hands out to the side.

Almost instantly, we both froze. A golden ball of blinding light formed between us, growing larger and larger. I took a few steps back as it expanded, eventually getting to the point where I was nearly against the wall because it was so massive. In an instant, it looked as though it was almost forming a shape, but it shone brightly before shrinking and disappearing completely. With the space between us now empty, I stared at Royce for a moment as he stared at me, the orange in his eyes now long gone. The silence in the training square was deafening as we just stared in fear at each other.

Then, very suddenly and very loudly, the silence was broken by Vivien as she summed up what both of us had been thinking, “What the hell was that?!”
