#this has been super nice to get some of my random DN thoughts together actually

[applestorms]

DN ask game: how about 18 and 23 (23 I will amend to 'one of your current favourite moments,' in case you are me and hate choosing favourites in any kind of absolute way haha)

CACKLES oh you know me so well =3=" original ask game

18. what do you think about Wammy’s House?

MY GOD. what do i NOT think about wammy's house. i feel like i've already talked a bit on wammy's house in Various Essays, but i suppose to coagulate some of those kinda random thoughts...

it Fucks those kids up. by nature of what wammy's house Is, i don't think it's possible for a single kid to get through it w/o getting at least a little fucked up. that goddamn orphanage is releasing a Storm of incredible messed up little geniuses on the world and the world will never recover. you can't create a fucking organization based around concepts like Live Up To The World's Greatest Detective or Never Ever Use Your Real Name (guess that's probably KIRA motivated, but still) without screwing over the sense of identity of an entire generation. nobody's doin it like them fr.

i really really really like the idea that people toss around about KIRA = god of the new world, therefore -> L = god of the old world, and i think wammy's house maps onto that idea super well as a kind of cult of the old god. something something greco-roman mystery cults, L as a void player homestuck classpect-wise, the Secrets and Idolization inherent to that entire entity. oh yeah it's all comin together rubs my hands eviley.

i saw someone say the LABB murders novel was bad the other day and almost cried because i personally Adore that book, for the additional naomi characterization + beyond moments yes, but also for the extra lore it establishes about wammy's and L more generally. having actual Generations within the house is so fucking fascinating by how you can break it down, especially when you try to fit L into it and maybe have a generation where he was interacting with the other kids during his kinda Rise to Power. i definitely think beyond and L interacted quite extensively at the very least (headcanon basis for that mostly, i just like the idea + it explains why he even got the idea to emulate him so closely), and the existence of A in and of itself is such a fascinating mystery, i love seeing how people mess with the idea of them in different ways.

also everyone go read heirs and spares for fantastic light-at-wammy's house content that almost reads like some of the best earliest parts of the promised neverland and also has some great L and light childhood worsties content. go go

also kira bless time speaks for writing that entire timeline where light and L go live at wammy's and traumatize mello w/ their horrible terrible flirting that is fucking saving me. i am so Desperate for more lawlight interacting with wammy's content i have no idea why that sets my brain off so bad but it Just Does. etc etc L negligent parent King for the win, i need to see near and L have the most horrible terrible psychological battles monologuing so loud it stinks up the entire damn room while mello and light are beating each other with bats in the background. please. lord.

also also roger's characterization in the seals are good series is unironically my accepted characterization for him now whoops. btw i don't think i have many Deep Thoughts on watari, he's kinda just a shitty old man philanthropist to me :/ though i do find him more interesting and Paternalistic with a good L genderbend.........

23. what was your favorite moment and why?

you said current favorite so honestly... ok i'll limit myself to two.

FAVORITE SCENE OF ALL TIME: LIGHT DYING. ez. specifically in the manga. there is legitimately no better scene in the entire series. this fucking panel haunts my dreams it's so goddamn Good

there is nothing i love more in this world than watching light yagami bloody and pathetic crawling on the floor and begging for his life only to die like every other criminal he killed. his fear is so Palpable it literally makes me sick. i've read this final sequence, like ch.105-107 but especially this last bit so many goddamn times istg it's burned into my eyelids LIGHT YAGAMIIIIIIII. also his laugh in the anime is fucking incredible in both dubs 10/10 no notes you killed it fellas

FAVORITE SCENE AT THIS MOMENT: been thinking a Lot about both naomi and matsuda lately and their various notable scenes, oddly. i think i need to reread his entire comedy of errors during yotsuba again alskjfskjd and also check out naomi's death again esp in conjunction with LABB murder stuff?? idk. they're both characters that i feel i haven't talked much about (also kiyomi, thought i've been getting Thoughts on her LMFAO thank you forever @kiyomitakada) so i wanna get my image of them cleared up more in my head. also all of the SPK too, halle especially. damn i guess that's a whole lot of moments actually :P WHATEVER.

anyways ty for the ask <33

member: park woojin || wanna one

genre: fluff fluff fluff

writing type: paragraph

word count: 4.6k

summary: woojin has been crushing on you since forever but you’re super oblivious || highschool!au, older brother!kang daniel

a/n: another reupload lol;;;

my masterlist

All he could hear was his own footsteps and his loud, rapid heartbeat as he left your house. Every little thing that you did made him happy. The skinship, the way you would tease him or compliment him; he basically loved everything about you. He glanced at the bag of fruits that your mom gifted him and remembered how close you got when you looked into the bag, your hair falling a little, making your scent waft over. 

You always smelled sweet and the way that your hair slowly fell, made his heart beat a little faster. It didn’t take long for him to arrive home, cleaning up the kitchen and placing the fruits nicely in a basket before going into his room to change into some sweats and a random t-shirt. When he was done changing, he flopped onto his bed and grabbed his phone, seeing the new notification from you. Seeing your contact name “biggest loser ;)” on his screen made him smirk and your text checking if he got home made his heart flutter.

You: are you home yet???

WJ: yeah just got into my room lol

You: ok good. Don’t want you dying or getting abducted or I’ll fail my classes

WJ: wow that’s what you worry about? Rude

You: of course ;)

WJ: You should sleep soon too. Make up for the sleep you barely got

You: okay mom whatever you say

WJ: don’t call me mom thats gross

You: hehehe okay. Do you want me to call you mother instead

WJ: just s t o p

You: lmao fine. I’ll go to sleep super early then like you said

WJ: alright. Goodnight y/n.

You: goodnight!!

He sighed in disappointment seeing that you were probably getting ready for bed now and switched over to text Daniel.

WJ: Hyungggg

DN: what’s up woojin? Did you have fun at your study date w/ y/n :-))

WJ: shut up it wasn’t a date

DN: whatever you sayyyy~ is this still gonna be about her anyways?

WJ:  …..

DN: lol just say whatever

WJ: i’ve been thinking of finally confessing to her

DN: waIT WOAH REALLY ???????????

WJ: yeah… do you think this is a right time?

DN: wtf of course it is!!! Park Woojin, you have been crushing on her ever since middle school there have been so many good times to confess to her

WJ: i’m gonna do it tomorrow after school

DN: ohhhhh?? Whaddya gonna do??

WJ: i’ll tell you after it happens :)

DN: what the… i swear, if i didn’t have practice, i would be spying on you two

WJ: thanks daniellll

DN: yeah yeah good luck woojin.

Woojin grabbed his headphones and started to play some music, writing down what he should do for you tomorrow, scribbling all over the notebook and crossing some ideas with others (what a dreamer boy). He ended up doing this for a couple hours before deciding he should get some sleep so he actually had energy to do that plan.

It was the usual morning, Daniel yelling at you to hurry up, Woojin arriving in front of your house as the two of you leave the building, bickering as you walk to the bus station, the bickering continuing until you separate at the school to get to your classes. Woojin kept fidgeting at his desk, constantly looking at the clock since the school day was almost over. When the bell rang, he immediately got up from his seat and walked over to you kind of robot like, making you snicker. 

“What’s with that walk Woojin? Did you forget to use your knees?” You teased as you gathered your things together. 

“You aren’t busy after school, right?” You raised your eyebrow, feeling a little confused at the sudden question and just shook your head. “Why bother asking that when you know the first thing I do when I get home is watch t.v.” You laughed. 

He let out an awkward chuckle, but a smile still appeared on his face, his snaggletooth sticking out. “Oh yeah haha… W-Well do you want to go to the mall?” He asked, sounding a little hesitant. You thought nothing of it since you guys hang out all the time. 

“Sure. Is Daniel gonna come?” He shook his head quickly, keeping his stare on you as you got up from your seat, slinging your bag over your shoulder. “Oh yeah he has practice today huh. That means I can’t beg him to buy me something if I run out of money.” You joked and pat Woojin’s back, signaling him to start walking. 

“I mean.. If you do run out, I can pay..” He said quietly, averting his gaze from yours. You smiled seeing his ears turn a nice shade of red. “Ohhh? Woojin being extra nice today? I’ll gladly take it.” You nudged his arm with your shoulder, watching as his face flushed red as you smiled at him. You flipped your bag in front of you to grab your wallet to check how much you really had and let out a huff of satisfaction to see that you weren’t completely broke.

The two of you took a bus to the mall area since it was quite far from where the school was. On the ride there, the two of you rambled about your favorite music artists, encouraging Woojin that he should dance to a couple of songs. You swore you could’ve heard the old lady sitting behind you guys say “Look how sweet this couple is!” to her other old lady friend, but you just ignored it (god y/n why are you so oblivious smh). 

The bus came to a stop at the station near the mall and Woojin took the lead of leaving first since he was sitting on the end that was next to the middle of the bus. He hopped off the step and stood to the side to let you walk off too. To your demise, your foot slipped on the last step, causing you to freak out immediately, your arms flailing and your eyes widened. You closed your eyes shut, expecting to feel a throbbing pain on your back or your ass, but you opened your eyes feeling the warmth of someone’s hands on your waist. You looked up to be face to face with Woojin, your faces only an inch away from each other, your hands gripping on his shoulders and a foot hanging off the step of the bus. 

Your face flushed and you quickly hopped off the last step, letting go of his shoulders, him doing the same with your waist. You straightened your uniform, coughing awkwardly, glancing up at Woojin who was also beet red, scratching the back of his head. 

“Are you okay y/n? You’re really clumsy ya’know.” He said, his eyes wavering again as he attempted to look at you directly, but failed due to still being flustered at the situation. “Y-Yeah, thanks again..” You sputtered, pushing your hair behind your ear. “Should we get going now?” You pointed towards the mall with your thumb, your eyes also trying to avoid direct contact with his. He silently nodded and the two of you started walking to the entrance of the large building. The walk was weirdly silent and the two of you just kept avoiding eye contact, feeling flustered whenever the both of you would glance at each other at the same time.

As you walked into the mall, the cool air of the industrial AC hit both of you, the both of you letting out a sigh of relief feeling the coolness on your skin. You perked out when you smelled a familiar sweet scent wafting over. 

“.... cinnAMON BUNS!!!” You excitedly said, jumping a little and looking at Woojin with stars in your eyes. 

The thought of cinnamon buns just made you happy since it’s been so long since you’ve eaten any despite how much you actually go out. You started to skip towards where the cinnamon bun stall was, constantly turning around to make sure you didn’t lose Woojin. He followed with a warm smile, laughing at how much of a kid you turned into as soon as you smelled the sweet pastry. You got into line excitedly, Woojin eventually catching up and stood beside you as the line moderately moved along. 

“Cinnamon buns…. the holy grail of sweet pastries… well, one of them at least… Woojin. Do you understand how important cinnamon buns are to me?” You slowly turned your head as you asked, making him burst out in laughter as he saw your overly serious face as you rambled about cinnamon buns (hi sorry i actually really love cinnamon buns and i havent had them in forever so this is reflecting on my life). You smiled as the person in front of you got what they ordered, letting you go up to the counter, the worker greeting them with a smile and asking what you would like today. 

You gazed at the already made cinnamon buns in the heater display next to you and was pleased to see how big they were. “Ah, Woojin do you want a piece or you do just wanna share?” You looked up at him awaiting his answer. “I think it’d be better if we shared. I’m afraid you’re gonna get a stomachache if you ate that whole piece alone.” He teased, reminding you of that moment where you ended up eating too much sweets one day and you kept complaining to Woojin and Daniel. You gave him a glare before turning back to the worker and ordering one piece. 

As the worker handed you the steaming piece of pastry covered in white glaze, you were completely engulfed in the smell that was now right in front of you. You turned to look at Woojin with an excited look before eating a piece of it. He chuckled at your exaggerated reaction (it wasnt exaggerated to you though), letting you have your moment with this precious cinnamon bun of yours. While you were chewing your piece, you sliced through it again, holding the piece in front of Woojin. He gazed at it for a bit before leaning it to take a bit, his eyes lightening up as he chewed, savoring the taste of it. 

“See. I told you it was good.” You smiled and took another bite, shaking your body out of happiness from the delicious taste it left in your mouth. You looked up to see if he wanted another bite, but all you saw was him licking his lips. You turned and quickly shoved another piece into your mouth, trying to erase what you saw in your mind. The image kept replaying in your mind slowly, making your cheeks flush and your ears extremely red. “L-Let’s go walk around!!” You stuttered and marched off, Woojin looking a bit confused at the sudden action but easily caught up to your quick paced steps.  

“WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME” You screamed internally, keeping your fast pace, consuming the cinnamon bun quickly and walking into some random store. You stopped in your tracks to gaze around at what the store actually was, your eyes scanning all of the cute clothes that they presented. You turned around to see Woojin standing quite close to you, making you jump a little. He kinda just smirked and walked off to the men’s side of the store. You tried to brush it off again, walking towards a rack that had a variety of colors and styles. 

To be honest, Woojin was looking at all of the clothes that would look cute on you, including the large sweaters on the men’s side. He would imagine you wearing one of the sweaters that he spotted in the racks, the bottom of the sweater down to your knees and the sleeves that would be a couple inches longer than your hands and that shit was the cutest thing he just imagined. He turned his head to hear you call his name. 

“Woojin Woojin!!! Which sweater should I get?? This one or this one?” You switched the two sweaters you were holding, placing it in front of you so that Woojin could see which one would look better on you. He stood there, staring sort of blankly, but lit up and pointed at the one you were holding in your left hand. 

“Ooh nice choice. I knew I could count on you,”  You said happily, placing the other sweater back on the rack. “Are you gonna get anything?” You walked over to him, scanning the rack that he was standing in front of. “I think I have enough sweaters at home. By the way I’m gonna need that black hoodie back.” You looked at him with sad puppy eyes, your lips pouting. 

“Those aren’t gonna work on me-” He was cut off as you got closer, the neediness on your face getting more exaggerated. He just stared down at you and quickly turned his head, rubbing the back of his neck. “F-Fine. One more week and you need to give it back.” You let out a satisfied noise and hopped off to the cash register to buy the sweater you picked out. Woojin waited near the exit, still feeling flustered at how close you got to him.

After buying the sweater, you skipped towards where Woojin was waiting, lightly slapping his arm to tell him that you were done. He jumped at the sudden action since he was still thinking about what happened a couple minutes ago. You snorted when you saw him jump and smiled when you saw his cheeks flush pink once again (what a cute shy baby). As you walked down the large building, you passed by the food court and saw some really cool drink displayed in front of one of the courts. 

“woOJIN LOOK LOOK !! LOOK AT HOW HUGE THAT DRINK IS!!!” you squealed in excitement, hopping up and down, grabbing and slapping his arm. He hid his smirk and reached into his pocket to grab his wallet, handing you $10. As you were watching him, you noticed all of the bills in his wallet. 

“Wow since when did you have so much money?” He snapped his wallet close and shoved it back into his pocket. “Don’t worry about it. Go over and buy it. I gotta use the the bathroom.” You saluted him as you grabbed the bill from his hand and sped walk towards the line. You didn't realize how long the line actually was when you got to the end and sighed seeing that it didn’t seem to move that quickly either.

Meanwhile, Woojin was speeding down the building, dodging people and different objects. He panted as he stopped his tracks in front of a jewelry store, his eyes wavering around. 

“Hello! May I help you?” a worker asked with a smile when they saw him enter the store. He coughed awkwardly to clear his throat and hesitated a little before speaking. 

“I uh.. Uhm- Yeah. I-I’m looking for a ring.. o-or a necklace.” The worker smiled and held her arm out to lead him where the rings and necklace section was. “Here’s our selection of necklaces and rings! May I ask what exactly you’re looking for so I can help?” 

His eyes frantically scanned over the tons of jewelry under the glass table and was overwhelmed how there was so much. He looked back at the employee nervously and brought his hand up to scratch the back of his head. “Well.. I-I’m looking for something simple ya’know?” Woojin coughed out and turned back to look at the different necklaces and rings. 

“Oh? Is this perhaps an anniversary gift for your girlfriend?” They asked nonchalantly which caused Woojin to choke on his own spit. “Ah- It’s more like… a confession… gift… yeah.” The worker went behind the counter to grab out one of the racks holding multiple silver necklaces with different designs hanging off of them. 

“If you're looking for something that isn't too extravagant, these necklaces are what you're probably looking for. Since they're quite simple in design, they're cheaper than most of the other jewelry that you see displayed up front.” The worker explained, turning to grab a rack of rings, Woojin looking at every single necklace closely. “Here are some rings that don't have any stones in it in case you’re planning to save up. They still have some design to it.” Woojin was looking at every single piece so closely that he didn't realize how long it was actually taking him to do this.

After 8 minutes of slowly inching forwards in line, you finally got to order the drink that caught your eye, waiting another 5 minutes for them to actually make the drink since it was giant. You walked over to an empty table, carefully placing the drink down and pulled your phone out of your pocket to check the time. “Geez it’s been that long? I’d expect Woojin to be back by now..” you mumbled to yourself as you sat down, looking around the area to see if he was walking back. Seeing that he wasn't anywhere around you, you let out a disappointment sigh and took a picture of the extravagant drink before taking a sip of it. Only a couple minutes passed, but you were starting to grow impatient.

To: Wooooooojin

You: woojin??? where are you? I already have the drink

You stared at your phone screen hoping to see if he was texting anything back, furrowing your eyebrows when it said he didn’t even read the message. “What the heck is he doing?” You mumbled again, angrily sipping your drink. “At least this drink is good…”

“Shit what time is it now…” Woojin thought and quickly pulled his phone out of his pocket, his eyes widening seeing the time and your text asking where he was. He typed in his phone password as fast as he could and immediately went to text you.

WJ: y/n!! sorry, this is taking longer than i expected… the line is pretty long.

You: now you respond? Why is it taking you 20 minutes to use the bathroom??

WJ: I saw something in a store that I passed by that looked pretty cool and I went to buy it

You: You could've done that after we ate?

WJ: it just looked cool sorry

WJ: I’ll be back soon there's a line that I have to wait in

You: yeah whatever just hurry back

You: it’s lonely here and this drink is half empty since you're taking forever

WJ: just keep waiting for a little longer okay? im sorry

You sighed again for the 386362nd time and decided to distract yourself with social media and games on your phone. Meanwhile, Woojin put his phone back and was choosing between 2 necklaces or a ring. He bit his lip as he was thinking which one would look the best on you and let out a loud huff when he decided on the 2nd necklace. It had a simple design; there was a small thing of leaves on each side of a heart in the middle. He smiled looking at the design once again picked it up. 

“I’ve settled with this necklace.” He pushed the piece of jewelry towards the worker feeling satisfied with his choice, pulling his wallet out of his pocket. The employee told him the price of the necklace and he handed them the amount. The necklace was placed nicely in a small box and then into a nice bag that the store provided after every purchase. Woojin thanked the employee and rushed out of the store to get to the food court where you’ve been waiting for almost 30 minutes now.

Your fingers tapped impatiently at the table and your cheek was resting against your hand as you stared blankly into nowhere. “Y/N!!!!” A familiar voice called, the steps getting louder as they slowed down. You snapped your head to look at the boy regaining his breath letting out a sigh to show how upset you were. 

“Finallyyyyy. Did you get what you wanted?” You asked in a very cold tone and gave him a threatening stare. He noticed your mood and smiled awkwardly, holding the bag behind his back, “Y-Yeah. Was the drink you got good?” He looked at the empty drink as an excuse to not look at you directly in the eyes. You frowned and squinted at him, completely ignoring his question. 

“Yah, Park Woojin. What’s wrong with you? You disappeared for at least 30 minutes and now you’re acting all weird.” He looked a bit shocked but let out an exhale of realization and a shy smile formed on his face.

“Actually.. The reason why I took so long was because,” He brought the bag in front of him and pulled out the box containing the necklace, opening it and revealing the piece of jewelry in fron of you, “I was picking something out for you.” You blankly stared at the gift and looked back at Woojin looking shocked. You let out a hesitant laugh, slowly reaching out to hold the box, 

“H-Hah. What’s this for? Suddenly treating me with a necklace... “ You knew your cheeks were flushing as you looked at every detail of the necklace. Woojin kneeled down to look up at you and clasped his hands together with yours. Your eyes widened and you flicked your head around to see people witnessing what was happening in the middle of the food court. 

“Y/N, I like you.” He said surprisingly without stuttering, but that changed immediately as he put his head down to hide his embarrassment. Your face was already beet red, both because your childhood friend since your toddler days just confessed to you and because he decided to do it in a public mall. 

“Oh my god Woojin…” He looked up at you with concern in his eyes, hoping that your ‘Oh my god’ isn’t a bad kind. “You’re such a fricking dork, I like you too.” You laughed and leaned down to bring him in for a hug. “Thank god.... I’ve liked you for so long, I was worried that everything would change if you rejected me…” Woojin’s concern instantly went to pure happiness as you pulled him in and he hugged you back tightly. Suddenly, he picked you up as he was hugging you and spun around a couple times, the both of you laughing.

A couple of cheers and whoops were heard around as the two of you enjoyed the moment together and you finally sat down so that Woojin could put the necklace on for you. You shivered at the touch of his fingers grazing your neck, Woojin holding in a laugh when he saw you shiver. He clamped the two parts together and went around to look at you, admiring the shiny jewelry around your neck. You touched the heart of the necklace and grinned.

“I didn't know you were a cheesy romantic.” You teased and slapped his arm playfully. Woojin smirked and took a seat next to you, “Well I saw how you sobbed at those dramas, so I assume you like the cheesy stuff.”

“Yah, we don’t speak of those times.” You glared, only causing Woojin to giggle.

Throughout the day, you kept finding yourself touching the necklace and looking at it whenever something else wasn’t occupying you. While you were looking at it again in the mirror when you were browsing around in a clothing store, Woojin snuck up behind you and slipped his hand into yours, grasping it softly. 

“You really like it huh?” He whispered into your ear and smirked, his snaggletooth showing a bit. You jumped at the feeling of his hand gripping yours and you turned your head around to find that your face was only a couple cm away from his. You still held onto his hand but you took a step back to open up the space between you so you wouldn’t be that embarrassed. 

“O-Of course I do… I’m just... “ Your sentence trailed off as soon as your started to look at it again, a smile growing on your face slowly. Woojin watched how you admired and tugged at your arm a little. “C’mon. We can’t have you spend all day standing in front of the mirror to look at it. We should get home now.” You snapped out of your admiration state again and nodded.

The bus ride home was silent but you never released your grip on each other’s hand. Your head was leaned against Woojin’s shoulder (honestly this made him nervous again but he fucking loves it bcuz you smell nice) and your arm was intertwined with his as you were holding hands. You unlocked the front door to your house, the two of you slipping your shoes off.

“Ah the two lovebirds are home!” Daniel called from the couch, seeing that the two of you were walking in. You and Woojin looked at each other, both flushed red and a couple awkward laughs were coughed out. “Daniel… H-How did you know already?” He gave you a judgmental face and looked at Woojin who was avoiding eye contact with both of you. “Y/N you’re so dumb, I’ve known Woojin has loved you forever.” Daniel laughed and hung his arms over the couch. “Even mom and dad could see how much Woojin loved you. They felt bad for him at one point.”  

“L-Love is an overstatement-”

“Naaaahhhhh. If anything, it’s an understatement.” He teased, Woojin’s face and ears now bright red, his hand covering his face. “I can finally be at ease. I won’t have to deal with Woojin spouting how cute you looked today or how much he likes what you do…” Daniel sighed and turned back around to continue his tv show. You giggled at his comment and looked back at Woojin who was still trying to cover his embarrassment. “You fanboyed over me to Daniel?”

He nodded his head timidly, causing you to laugh more. “Awwwwww you’re so cute!!!” You squealed and shook his arm.

“Yah, can you guys not flirt when I’m around? It hasn’t even been a full day.”

“Shut up I had to deal with you when you had your girlfriends.”

Daniel just raised his arms in defeat. The two of you went upstairs into your room and had a happy netflix all-nighter and your friend basically screamed over text when you told them that you two were official. Eventually the news spread throughout school and people were relieved that Woojin finally did it. You felt embarrassed that literally everyone knew about his feelings except you, but you decided to embrace it as a cute memory instead.
