Lark Liveblogs Literature: THE SUNSHINE COURT BABYYYYY LETS GO JEAN

to begin: THE COVER???

The fucking NARCISSUS/DAFFODIL. Stop stop stop. Nora stop. She said it wouldn’t be a sun but I WASNT READY.

RESILIENCE. FIRST BLOOM AT THE END OF WINTER. NEW BEGINNINGS AND REBIRTH.

warning in advance for how many reaction images will be in this post. Miss Nora Sakavic has a way of making me unable to verbalise how devistated I am so I turn to goofy photos.

Also, just so we’re all on the same page:

it’s 1:20 AM. My roommate IS asleep. I am fighting the demons (downloading this book) but i am winning (it is queued on my kindle)

ITS DOWNLOADED LETS GO

Okay so context is that my Kindle is at 10%

I tried to go to bed and read this in the morning but I am

SO NOW I HAVE FRANTICALLY FOUGHT A WAR (figured out how to get this book) AND I AM READY FOR BATTLE (to cry over Jean)

ONE, TWO, THREE, LETS GO BITCH!!

Also my kindle cord is too small for me to properly lay in bed so im literally about to lay on my stomach kicking my feet like a middle schooler WISH. ME. LUCK.

CHAPTER ONE:

oh we’re jumping right in okay. god. hi baby :((

OH. I am just adding onto my #1 Riko hater agenda right now.

“The golden rule— not where the public can see” DIE. LITERALLY DIE TETSUJI

“The lack of broken fingers this time” THIS TIME??? JEAN. JEAN.

im so.

RENEE!!!

“and he had wasted them texting Renee a heads-up.” Nora please we’re only four pages in bro

Renee i love you im marrying you please give me a kiss. Mwah Mwah Mwah. She said “Bitch. Lay back down.”

currently also reading a batshit raven!neil fic and just. on the ground. about all of this.

stop the way I literally went “who the fuck is Nathaniel” Im too transgender for this.

Me, seeing the Abby content we need in this world:

Jean dont call that hellscape home bbg

Renee beating self worth into this man. ily

“Jean couldnt remember the last time he was allowed to wear color” LITERALLY KILL ME

Nora I need you to be less good at describing pain please and thanks

NOT THE BITING

DADMACK DADMACK DADMACK DADMACK!!

he fr be moving this man like a doll. love you wymack

tied him up with racquet laces I. h. lays on floor softly crying.

NOT THE DADDY ISSUES

Jean fr out here plotting 50 ways to kill his brother. he fr though Neil was the problem. no girl Neil just has no tact and autism rizz. Kevins the fucking snitch

no one:

Jean @ the Moriyamas;

“that man is years overdue for a head-on high-speed collision” YOU TELL EM DADMACK

CHAPTER TWO:

Jean please just sleep like a normal human man. God.

Even Jean be out here like “Kevins a little Chihuahua ass drama queen. Bitchboy. Wet cat man.”

Kevin: look, bro, if the 5’3 twink with enough daddy issues to make riko blush and chugs ‘fuck around and find out’ juice for breakfast can escape the moriyamas and not die, so can you.

Testuji. Testuji when I catch you. Tetsuji

Jean what the fuck makes you think anyone but Andrew Minyard will ever tell Neil what to do. Girl.

“If I am not a Raven, who am I?” A MOTHERCUCKING TROJAN BABYYYY

“I have to go to my next class.” I forgot they were in college deadass. Neil is straight up my age im gonna throw up.

Okay. It is. *checks time* 3 AM. I cannot keep my eyes open, which means i must put Jean away for sleep.

ITS IS NOON THE FOLLOWING DAY. I HAVE SLEPT. I HAVE TAKEN MY MEDICATIONS. TIME TO HYPERFOCUS BABY.

KINDLE SAYS WE HAVE 8 hrs 27 mins LEFT IN THIS BOOK. IM SAYING GOODBYE TO MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY. I’LL SEE Y’ALL AT DINNEE TIME. ITS JEAN TIME.

Hiiiiiii Thea….

“Good morning, Paris.” Now, the average man will see this as a reference to his frenchness. but real ones know Paris is prince of Troy, the man who married Helen of Troy & started the Trojan war.

do y’all think Jean has a french accent wait wait wait. obviously itd be very slight at this point but is it there. necessary question.

Assessing Thea like a fucking state exam right now. Neil could not have cared less about your ass I am gaining so much information

Hate of my life Riko moriyama.

CHAPTER THREE:

JEREMY FUCKING KNOW HI BAYYYBY

the way I literally got up and had to pace and stim for a moment even though I fully expected this. autism. my roommate is concerned. not really. she’s used to this she watched me read TKM and dramatically reenact the Ichirou Car Talk.

wow??? AFTG team actually seems happy and well-adjusted and friendly with each other??

Random Note: I’m currently watching Blue Exorcist & one of the main characters is a girl name Moriyama and I’m literally just sitting here like “This girl is way to nice and innocent to have that name.” Because she literally is the nicest girl to ever exist. Why is she cursed with the same name as my mortal enemy (Testuji)

“Tonight’s experiment was the icing on the cake, an invaluable experience no matter how it ended.” Jeremy, my love.

He has empathy… Never before seen footage. Y’all get the cameras!!

He’s so shaken about Jean,,, holding you so gently Jeremy. Here as a guy who knows nothing at all about Jeremy since I’m. so new here. but god.

Jeremy: are you sure a Raven can abide by Troja—

Kevin: Bro Jean is so pathetic he’s a bottom fr. He never disobeys an order

Jeremy: I. Okay you didnt have to say it like that, bro.

I will literally never stop respecting the Trojans strat in the final they really said. “If these fucks can win the championships with nine players, surely we can.” and then willingly got their asses handed to them.

“Xavier stumbled when he got the next serve off, and the Fox guarding him gamely hauled him back upright before running for the ball. It was a simple gesture, but it endeared Jeremy to them” I dont remember if this bit was described in tkm so i’m going to guess that’s Nicky or Matt. Aaron would fucking never.

Nah because like. Yes this proved to the Trojans how resilient the Foxes were, but it was also a message to the audience, yk? Like we know the Foxes were getting shit for their quick rise to the top after they pulled their shit together, but I personally think that the Trojans did this both for their improvement & for Foxes’ publicity. This game proved to the public at large how devastatingly *good* the Foxes were, because of their small size. The second best team in the league crumbled playing the same conditions the Foxes did *every game* and got to championships with. They proved that Foxes were, in fact, a D1 team who earned their keep.

oh hes got daddy’s money. Well. not. officially. yo what I mean.

“it was always best to have a paper trail” Neil Josten would have an anuerysm hearing those words.

Bye Jeremy I’m. Love you so much. Why do you feel like a sixty year old man in your early twenties.

“between seven and twelve students.” yikes.

“unfamiliar and accented voice.” I WAS RIGHT I FUCKING CALLED IY HES GOT AN ACCENT BABY FUCK YEAH

“you ever feel like— like you’re making a choice you cant come back from? But even knowing everything could go completely sideways, you’d make that choice every time?” okay so coming out allegories i could make aside, Jeremy is so… where to start with him. He reminds me of Percy Jackson. Endlessly loyal and selfless to the point its a bit stupid but endearingly stupid.

CHAPTER FOUR:

Okay so we’re alresdy hateflirting. noted.

Its also extremely sunny today in Podunk Hicksville where I live so it feels very On Brand.

“Jean had seen that smile in a half-dozen broadcast… He could picture it too easily, and he dug his fingernails into his own face in vicious warning.” Awww you think you can best the gay worms in your brain. goodluck with that Johnny.

“isn’t that reason enough to keep living? To rediscover simple delight one moment at a time,” keeping this quote for eternity

“enough sunlight to chase away Evermore’s shadows. They are willing to take a chance on you. Aren’t you?”

Kevin Day autistic king. taking this hesdcannon to my grave .

“the conspiracy theorists were working overtime” no girl they just aint stupid.

THEY DESTROYED HIS POSTCARDS…

CHAPTER FIVE:

I want to start keeping record of all the times Jean is like “[name] wasn’t decent enough to [thing]” because its SO funny. We LOVE a petty king.

also keeping track of all the insults he throws at Neil.

Neil likes to think he’s SUUUUCH a loner boy no friends angsty “dont speak to me” resting bitch face ass motherfucker. In reality he is a jack russell terrier — ceritifed jack russell owner who’s dog thinks hes soooo big and bad but said dog literally cries when you dont let him in the bed or say hi to people on the street

Jean is SOOOOOO dramatic 😭😭

Jean: Why would you let Kevin do this.

Neil: let him?? He did that on his own.

Jean: you’re proud of him for being a problem, arent you?

Neil: oh you fucking know I am, bitchass

“but other than his outstanding murder charge there was nothing interesting about that Fox.” i’d consider that very interesting information, Jean. Youre just deranged

“with milk, juice, and vodka dominating one shelf” that’s Aaron, Nicky, Andrew/Kevin in order. Im correct.

“There was an entire drawer dedicated to cheese.” Yeah that sounds like Nicky.

“Half the drawer was full of mini candy bars. Jean threw them all into the trash” bro Andrew is going to kill you in cold blood and not even Neil can save you.

Jean is SO dramatic. Give him Kevin’s crown.

Jean @ Neil during the final: ARE YOU WITHOUT INTELLIGENCE????? ARE YOU STUPID??? DO YOU WANT TO DIE??

Seeing the media coverage of the championship is the food I needed thank you Nora for this. I am eating it up. om nom nom

The sportscasters referring to athletes with their first name is batshit. What. why. huh. Absolutely not.

CHAPTER SIX:

Renee protecting Jean from discovering Riko’s death through media & not through them…

Everytime boys start fistfighting in this series I hear Roxanne from Megamind. “Ladies, ladies, you’re BOTH pretty.”

a) Jeans reaction to finding out was exaclty what I expected

b) I’m FASCINATED to know who called campus security. Jeremy?? Renee?? Someone in Fox tower???

Neil was gentle with someone other than Andrew? I didnt know he knew how to do that…

NEIL. NEIL JOSTEN. YEAH BABY

HES ROOMING WITH CAT AND LAILA??? YES YEA YES YESY

the Jean-Renee dynamic is so fucking important to me. MLM/WLW solidarity. theyre besties.

THEYRE SO IMPORTANT TO ME BRO.

Literally snuggling Jeremy

Oh he’s got Fox potential. Hiiii Jeremy. Give me the traumadump bbg

THEY/THEM??? DO MY EYES DECEIVE ME OR IS THIS AN HONEST TO GOD THEY/THEM PLAYER OH ILL CRY. ILL CRU RIGHT NOW

CHAPTER SEVEN:

Oh Jean. you’re about to have such a gay awakening babe i can feel it in my bones.

A FUCKING YOYO??? I LOVE HIM

“A mite bit hecked up” PLEEEASE JUST SAY FUCK /ref

OH HE WAS IN LOVE WITH KEVIN. INTERESTING INTERESTING INTERESTING.

autism coded lookingg motherfucker (stares at Jean.)

The chaos of Cat and Laila’s house is so fucking cute. Its about to be two lesbians and their distrustful pitbull rescue in this bitch and im ready for it.

CHAPTER EIGHT:

watching normal people discover the cult that is Evermore. Finally someone having a normal response to that madness. What the FUCK.

wait theres actually a cardboard dog i thought it was fanon joke.

oh my god there is actually a fucking cardboard dog. i.

jeans brain just got actually shattered by this living room. he cannot comprehend this.

Cat & Jeremy, realizing the cult rumors are real: I THOUGHT YOU WERE KIDDING! I thought it was joke! I even wrote it down in my diary! “Kevin made a very funny joke today!” I laughed at it later that night!

Okay, last night; I went to bed at 2:30 AM 45% through (college my beloathed). we’re back in business.

Jeremy is so disturbed all of the time. goofy ass.

“Loving something is not enough,”

“When was the last time you enjoyed playing?”

“ Irrelevant.”

Whats his shirt look like Jeremy. Jeremy whats the shirt look like. Jeremy. Whats the shirt look like.

Okay so I’ve reached my image limit for this post and I dont have fun reaction images on my laptop. so now I will post this & reblog with the rest of this book.

[momoshin]

Ryujin fluffy alphebet a-z 🥺🥺

A = Activities (What do they like to do with you? How do you spend your free time together?)

PICNICS! making your own food (or buying it sometimes) and setting a blanket in the middle of a nice park where kids and dogs could be easily spotted. she’ll ask you to read poetry to her, play her guitar for you, you’ll sing together, just two fools in love. also, scrapbooking! it’s something you both discovered you liked doing together very early on in your relationship.

B = Beauty (What do they admire about you? What do they think is your most beautiful feature?)

loves your lips, eyes and waist. she loves kissing you, but just looking at your lips makes her heart race, same with your eyes, she could keep eye contact with you forever, she just loves everything about them. and your waist is her hand’s favorite place, whether you’re sitting or standing, one if not both of her hands will always be on your waist.

C = Comfort (How would they help you when you feel down/have a panic attack etc.?)

ryujin won’t bother to pull you aside, she doesn’t care if there’s anyone around, she will stop what she’s doing once she sees any signs of you struggling and asks if you need a breather or if she can help in any way, if you say no, she will stay by your side and let her hands run up and down your back to help you calm down, will hug you if you let her and tuck her chin on top of your head while humming melodies to you.

D = Dates (What are dates with them like?)

she’s so selfless, even with dates she’s always making sure you’re comfortable with wherever and whatever you’re doing, hands always entangled and she’s always willing to pay for whatever you want

E = Equal (Are they the dominant one in the relationship, or rather passive?)

dominant for sure, whether it’d be in bed or not

F = Fights (Would they forgive you easily? What are they like while fighting with you?)

she would hate fighting, the possibility of upsetting you to the point where you’d rather sleep on the couch than with her terrifies her, and as soon as you grab your pillow and a blanket, she grabs your wrist and tries to convince you to stay with her, puppy eyes full of apologies that her words couldnt quite express

G = Gratitude (How grateful are they in general? Are they aware of what you are doing for them?)

SO grateful, ryujin is generally grateful for her life, where she is and such, but she always thanks you for doing small things for her, making her breakfast, anything really.

H = Hugs (What is their favorite way to hug and cuddle you?)

she personally loves when you casually come up to her and without interrupting her conversation, press up against her and wrap her arms around your shoulders yourself.

I = Inspiration (Did you change them somehow, or the other way around? Like trying out new things or helped them overcome personal problems?)

ryujin definitely holds less grudges ever since she met you, she doesn’t feel the need to see the people who have made her suffer, suffer, she doesn’t feel the need to prove herself to anyone, doesn’t listen to mean comments or people who just want to bring her down.

J = Jealousy (Do they get jealous easily? How do they deal with it?)

mm depends ? she trusts you more than anyone, and she trusts both your friends, so when she gets jealous its more of a “why the fuck is that guy looking at my girlfriend like he wants to eat her” kind of thing, it usually involves someone she’s never seen before, and it leads to her walking over to the two of you and not so subtly placing a hand on your waist, calling you all sorts of nicknames while glaring at them

K = Kisses (Who initiated the first kiss? What kind of kisser are they? Shy? Passionate?)

she initiated the first kiss! she’ll peck your lips so many times in the day but as soon as she has the chance she will pull you to the side and get her well earned dose of kisses. her kisses usually range from short, repeated pecks, they are goofy at times, sensual even, and she finds herself biting your lip gently every once in a while

L = Love Confession (How would they confess to you?)

in bed, the two of you looking at each other silently and then she just says all these things that sounds like she’s proposing because it’s so detailed and you can tell she loves you so much it’s quite inevitable for you to cry or get teary eyed as she talks about everything she loves about how and how good you make her feel

M = Marriage (Do they want to get married? How do they propose? What would your marriage be like?)

Yes but not yet, she would probably propose at a meaningful place for your relationship, and i have this vivid image of her wearing a bodysuit like the one for the gda’s last year for her wedding, she’d let you make the important decisions but would be completely involved whenever you asked for her opinion and would try to help as much as she could so it didn’t all pile up for you.

as for marriage, i think the dynamic would fit you both perfectly, the shiny bands on your hands, loves the way ‘my wife’ slips off her tongue as she introduces you to someone, or whenever someone asks you about each other and uses the ‘your wife’ it just gives you both butterflies all over again.

N = Nicknames (What do they call you?)

baby, angel, my love, short versions of your name sometimes!

O = On Cloud Nine (What are they like when they are in love? Is it obvious for others? How do they express their feelings?)

everyone can notice, it’s like an aura she carries around and she’s instantly bubblier, in situations that maybe would’ve gotten a rise out of her she’s more patient, she’ll be nicer to her members and such,, she makes sure to text you good morning and good night, throughout the day, that she misses you, that she loves you, sends you small details when she can’t make it to deliver them personally, just always reminding you of her appreciation, besides, she never shuts up about you, her members claim are sick and tired of hearing ‘y/n this, y/n that’ but in reality, they love seeing ryujin so happy and loved.

P = Parent (What kind of parent would they be?)

idk if i can see ryujin with kids, but in the chance you do have any, she would be such a cool mom, taking them to her studio just so they could hop around to music while she choreographed something, maybe she has a room for them to play and nap if necessary too, and if you have a boy, she would be his hero literally, he’ll always want to be like her and copy her every move.

Q = Quirk (Some random ability they have that’s beneficial in a relationship or a cute quirk they have that many don’t know about)

she’s such a good cuddler/can make people fall asleep so easily, the way she expertly runs her hands through your hair or back lulls you into a deep slumber almost instantly, the kisses she presses on your nose and forehead only helping the matter

R = Romantic (How romantic are they? What would they do to make you happy? Cliché or rather creative?)

ryujin is so romantic in general, she just loves to express how much she loves you and cares for you in more ways than just saying it. and the long-lasting smile on your lips when she susprises you is so worth it too, it can range from bringing home a dish of chocolate covered strawberries to setting up a bath with rose petals and candles, to just taking a drive around the city to a pretty place she heard about, talking softly about everything and nothing

S = Secrets (Do they have secrets they hide from their s/o? Or do they share everything?)

you pretty much share anything, honesty is very important for her and your relationship. plus she enjoys telling you even about the smallest details of her day

T = Thrill (Do they need to try out new things to spice up your relationship? Or do they prefer a certain routine?)

she doesn’t need to, ryujin is perfectly happy with your dynamic and so are you, but whenever the topic comes up she’s not opposed!

U = Unbearable (What habit do they have that’s unbearable? What habit do you have that they find unbearable)

EATING IN BED. i know y’all have seen that livestream of her eating tangerines in bed, sticky, juicy tangerines. so whenever she brings a snack or anything to eat to bed she’s expecting your side eye to what she responds promising to not make a mess and to clean it if she does.

and her, she hates your incredibly weird eating combinations, the fact that you will offer some to her to try too, she finds herself gagging just at the sight or smell and threatening to break up with you for laughing.

V = Videos (Do they take lots of videos or photos during your relationship?)

of course she does, like i said, the two of you enjoy scrapbooking, that means making your own scrapbook with your own photos taken by each other or strangers you asked on the street, writing down funny highlights of your dates to remember whenever you go through it. also, she has you as her background, it’s a funny yet endearing sight to see her flaunting the front of her phone to everyone so they would catch a glimpse of you as her wallpaper.

W = Wedding (What is your wedding like?)

so much fun, lots of dancing, kissing, and teasing, specially when it’s time to take your garter off ;)). but the most endearing moment is cutting the cake, it’s funny, nerve-wracking because everyone is looking at you, yet a beautiful memory you’ll hold on to forever as long as the photos capturing the moment.

X = eXtra (What is an interesting fact about them that they’ve only told you?)

maybe that she wants to have a farm at some point in her life

Y = Yearning (How do they cope when they’re missing you?)

she’ll call you, of course, talk to you, but ever since you made her a playlist, songs that reminded you of her, of the two of you, whenever she’s missing you she will listen to it, even if she knows the song letter by letter she will listen to all of them until the pain in her chest dissolves into something lighter. even when she’s sad and with you, she’ll play the songs and lay in your arms, sometimes crying with the soft murmur of your singing in her ear.

Z = ZZZ (What is it like sleeping with them? Do they like to cuddle or do they need space?)

i don’t think she moves at all lmao, like you will find every hair and muscle just the way you last saw it before closing your eyes, most of the time she likes cuddling, i feel like she is a bigger spoon type of person, but she will hide her face in your chest every once in a while to be able to go to sleep.

[dontjudgemebymykpoptrash]

Saw A.C.E in Chicago and Atlanta this week and had meet and greet packages for both stops (no I couldn't afford it, yes my bank account overdrafted whoops).

It was ammazingggg. LONG STORY AHEAD.

The question I asked was answered by Chan. Bless his heart he struggled so much to say my name and I was in the second row on the furthest side from him. I stood up and waved so he could see me. They asked how to pronounce my name and BK actually said it perfectly, I was so impressed!

The question that was chosen was "What hobby do you want to try that you haven't tried before". He said Cooking, cause he isn't good at it and Donghun won't eat his food.

When the item signing started, BK would interact with us a lot and the girls in front of us took the liberty of teaching him the phrase "Let's get this bread." His face when they explained that bread = money was priceless. Experiencing that magical moment will live with me forever since he has been saying it nonstop since then.

So since PLT I've decided my "thing" for each autograph I can get is making my dumb pun fans. Eventually I'll just have a wall of these dang things and I'm excited about it. I made one for each my friend and me. Here's mine.

The other thing I prepared for them I kept super secret because I very much wanted to see their reaction to it. I didn't post it publicly anywhere. In line with Choice teasingly referring to Junhee as a lizard much to the delight of the fandom and the rest of A.C.E while hysterically bugging Jun, I couldn't resist... I'd always wanted to give away cute things at concerts but since I'm also an asshole I used my exceptionally mediocre photoshop skills to make

These beauties.

I originally only had 150 to hand out and I was actually worried I wouldn't be able to get rid of them all. I thought people might think they're dumb and not want any. Then due to a print shop mistake I ended up with 650. Whoops.

Before the meet and greet they tell us explicitly we are not allowed to give them anything and if they catch us trying to sneak them something they'll escort us out. My plan to see their reaction was almost destroyed! But I was very graciously given permission to -show- them the card, not give it to them (don't worry. They each got two in their gift boxes).

A.C.E tends to always stand/sit in the same order, so just as I expected, Chan was up first. He understood the pun of my fan! He thought it was really cute and gave such a big reaction I was pleased. Then I showed him the card and it was even bigger. I told him it was Junhee and he full on kicked out a leg and hit the table as he laughed which made me happy. He shook my hand.

Up next was Donghun who was the most quiet. I showed him the card after he signed my fan and he asked who it was. I told him it was Jun and he laughed and probably judged me a lot but then he gave me a high five and interlaced our fingers for a moment so I didn't feel completely embarrassed. The person behind me was so excited they moved onto Donghun before Jun was ready for me so I was waiting in limbo for a few seconds.

Leader Jun in the middle, the reaction I wanted most. He signed my fan and then I put the card down for him to see. He asked who it was, he seemed surprised. I told him it was him and he laughed and tried to deny it. He asked what kind of lizard it was, I told him it was a giant day gecko because I think they're the cutest. I told him I made sure to give them some in their gift box, and that we would see him again in Atlanta. He shook my hand and then the person behind me got excited again lol.

Byeongkwan was next! This boy is an absolute doll okay? The first thing he said to me is that he liked my lipstick (it was green). He signed my fan, then I showed him the card and he was beyond stoked. He laughed so loud and even held it up to Jun pointing it out to everyone. I promised him he got two in his gift box. He asked if I made one of each member and I told him no, but promised him I would next year (me and my big mouth). He held my hand and interlaced fingers and was just so sweet until the person behind me encouraged me on again.

WOW. OKAY. So Sehyoon is my bias af I was VISIBLY SHAKING at this point and as I set my fan down it so obnoxiously tapped the table several times. He tapped his lips and pointed at mine and said "pretty". I thanked him and said it was green for "cactus". I'm not sure if he understood cause he just repeated "cactus" and cocked his head slightly before signing my fan. Then I showed him the card. He asked who it was and I said Jun. He laughed a little and then I told him he was my favorite. He had the quietest lil thank you, then took my hand in both his soft tiny bby hands and I think my brain melted cause I couldnt make eye contact anymore it was too much. Just thinking about it is making my heart hurt. (To be clear, I am in no way special, he held everyone's hand the same way).

After that, we did the pictures! I very shyly wanted to stand between BK and Wow. I didn't do anything special this time around cause the pose I wanted was done by two other people so I just asked for cute cheek pokies. They were having so much fun with people so that inspired my next photo request. As I was walking away from the photo BK told me again that he really liked my lipstick and I was over the moon.

I brought about half the cards with me to hand out hoping I wouldn't have extras and people LOVED THEM? I ran out and felt bad that I didn't bring more!

The concert was AWESOME!! They're so interactive with fans I had several moments with EACH of them, but my favorite is when Wow kicked up a heart and he saw me catch it all goofy instead of letting him hit the woah and he laughed and mimicked me. He also handed me two lollipops (I gave one to my friend) but I'm never gonna eat it.

For the hi touch Chan handed us our photo cards, and hi fived us. They were oddly out of order (chan, Donghun, BK, Wow, Jun). I managed to tell him and Donghun they did amazing, then BK told me AGAIN he still loved my lips. I was so excited I told him "it'll be BLUE next time" and he said "oh!" BUT BY DOING THAT MY DUMBASS MISSED THE CHANCE TO LOOK INTO WOW'S AND JUN'S EYES UGH I WAS SO UPSET AT MYSELF also I got yelled at by security (rightly so).

Next is Atlanta!

I started handing out cards earlier and got worried again cause there were quite a few people that weren't interested at all. Fortunately by the end of the show there were so many people wanting them I offered to do a reprint if necessary. Some people even said they were going through the hi touch holding it up which I LOVED.

Anyway, this time during the Meet and Greet I was in the front row directly in front Byeongkwan and Wow. I WAS NOT OKAY. I kept making eye contact and getting so shy ugh. Byeongkwan recognized me and tapped his lips and winked when he saw me (I was wearing blue lipstick this time). BK got my question (the interpreter said my name perfectly without me needing to tell her, I was so impressed!) I asked what concept they wanted to try that they hadn't tried yet. He said they had already done everything and I cocked my head giving him a disbelieving look. He then admitted that they hadn't done the cutesy boy concept and I lost it- I cant imagine them trying to pull that off.

For future Choice in my position- these boys have ears like BATS okay. There was one time Jun said something like "it's his choice." And I quietly said to the person next to me "no we're choice." And he looked at me and said "You're right! You're all choice!" I was shook.

Wow got asked what his favorite dessert to eat is and he said chocolate anything, then listed things "Chocolate cake. Chocolate ice cream. Chocolate rice." At this point everyone exclaims and he gets his silly lil smile and says "Chocolate fish." And everyone loses it. It was so funny and cute.

Later Jun was asked if he preferred pancakes or waffles and it was a really hard question for him. He said he had been eating more pancakes since coming to the US but he liked both a lot. He just didn't like Chocolate pancakes and I said "cause Wow eats them all?" And wow just very dreamily says "Choco pancakes...." I about died.

BK was asked if he wanted to go to the aquarium and he said he really hoped to. He asked if there were beluga and everyone said yes but I said "But they have WHALE SHARKS!" which imo is the coolest thing about the Georgia aquarium. None of them seemed to know exactly what I meant but they were excited by the concept of the words "whale" and "shark" together. (Spoiler alert: The next day they totally went and got pics with the whale shark).

Finally BK asked where people recommended they eat. Someone suggested sushi at first. I thought it was funny to recommend sushi when visiting the US. BK seemed of the same mindset so chicken and waffles came up and Jun loudly said WAFFLES! To which, Wow said in his same dreamy tone "chocolate waffles" and I looked at him and said "chocolate chicken?" embarrassing the HELL out of myself cause everyone was super grossed out by it and making a scene. I hid but my friend said Wow thought it was funny. I think she was trying to make me feel better.

So the item signing time comes up. My DUMB ASS forgot my album at home so the day before I had gone on a panicked shopping spree and decided on a pot for my cactus.

Chan was up first as usual. He recognized me and asked if I was in Chicago and I said yes! He asked what the pot was and I told him it was for my cactus plant. He was so adorable, while he was signing it he said quietly "grow well." So now it has to. This time he did not do a high five with me.

Next was Donghun. He looked so confused at my pot. I told him it was for my cactus and he just kinda nodded. It was very quiet because I had tried to learn a short phrase for him in korean but I got too nervous and I couldn't say it. I just thanked him. I'll have to keep practicing.

Jun was next and also asked me if I had been in Chicago and thanked me for coming again. I told him it was my last stop but I knew they would keep doing amazing. He asked about the pot and said it was so cute and signed super big. He shook my hand.

BK was next and he complimented my lips again. I asked him if he liked the green or blue better and he said both were good. He asked about the pot and signed it for me, he said it was cute and he liked it. He high fived me when it was time to move on.

WOW. AGAIN. okay so he asked about the pot and I said it was for my cactus and he mimed planting a cactus while looking up at me and I nodded while melting cause he is SO GODDAMN CUTE OKAY. Then while he was signing it I worked up my courage cause I had tried to learn a phrase for him as well BUT I MESSED UP I MESSED UP SO BAD IT WAS BAD OKAY. He was so confused and thank GOD the interpreter was right there and she asked "what are you trying to say" and she helped me say it. I was SO EMBARRASSED I had practiced so much and was saying it SO WELL up until that moment. Once I managed he smiled and said I did good then took my hand and said something which the interpreter translated for me and I just grabbed my heart with my free hand and then had to just cover my face I couldnt handle it. Walking away was hard but staying was harder.

Of course that just put me back in my seat directly in front of him.

Dont judge me, but I was trying to say, "You're so awesome it makes my heart hurt." And his response was "Then I'll prescribe you some medicine" and I KNOW its cheesy and overdone but I wanted that moment once for me so I took my chance. Anyway I looked like a damn fool but it was over.

The last dumb thing I did as the signing went on cause we kept making random eye contact and I got self conscious of always looking away. One of the times Wow and I met eyes I winked and shot finger guns and his eyebrows raised ever so slightly and I wanted to sink into the floor and die so I hid my face again. He looked so surprised like what WAS I THINKING WHY DID I DO THAT AAAAAAAA.

Anyway.

Here's my cute cheap pot!

Next was pictures. This time I had a plan. I asked them to pose ugly with me. They were surprised and asked for clarification twice, BK even asked me in english and I said "yes, ugly faces. If you can! If it's even possible." I wonder if it's the first time theyve ever been requested to do that. Anyway that's gonna be my thing too with the punny fan from now on. They did their best and it's absolutely adorable. Afterward BK walked up to me and wanted to see the pictures I took so I showed him. After he walked away it occured to me how fun and casual that was, that he just came over to look at pics together. I love this boy so much damb.

The atlanta show was amazing but the stage was so high up and far away there was no direct interaction possible. They made up for it with even more interaction! BK and Donghun each danced with me. I made a heart with my friend and Chan winked and laughed cause it looked like she begrudgingly made the heart with me when in reality she just couldnt hear me and couldnt tell what I was asking. Wow played a heart escalating game with me and he won so I made a dumb cute face and he laughed.

At hi touch I was determined not to miss Wow again. The order was the same except Donghun and Chan switched. I told them they did really amazing, a great show! Then BK said "Best lips!" To me and I got so excited but still didnt want to miss Wow, I loudly repeated "Best Lips!" While making eye contact and high fiving this poor man so hard, then for Jun I said "Don't forget!" And he was just so unprepared for me because I was unprepared for me but I WAS SO HYPED UP I LOST MY LAST BRAINCELL ITS STILL IN ATLANTA GUYS ITS GONE FOREVER.

So anyway that was a lot of unnecessary details about my specific adventures with A.C.E and I loved them so much and maybe one person will read this and smile but mostly I just want to try and remember as much detail as possible. I'll add things as I remember if I forgot something. Anyway dont be like me hahahaHAHAHA.

Also highkey if BK or one of the boys ends up with a bold lipstick color for a comeback or promotions in the next year or so I'm taking full credit.

What about a reaction of the RFA+Saeran (and V if you want) to an MC that suddenly shrinks to the size of thumbelina (whether at home or in the middle of an RFA party or a date or somethin) and panic/trouble/mayhem/mischief/amusement/cooing ensues~ preferably different scenario for each member thank you

Thank you for your request! It was a fun idea :D I may have went a bit overboard but I hope you enjoy! Put the read more cause it’s long as heck

Jumin:

You were at Jumin’s penthouse when it suddenly happened

You shrank to a real small size

For a normal person Jumin’s penthouse was big

BUT NOW

IT FEELS LIKE YOU’D HAVE TO HIKE FOR DAYS JUST TO GET TO SOMETHING THAT WOULD NORMALLY BE THREE FEET AWAY

Mc paniced, what the hell, what the hell was happening??

Everything was too big

She ran to try and get onto the counter which had her phone

But the climb to get there… was damn near impossible

she wasn’t even athletic

meanwhile Jumin walked in, pulling at his cuff as he was readying to go to work, when he noticed Elizabeth the 3rd fixating on something

She looked quite intrigued

Curious, that seemed to catch his attention

Elizabeth began clicking her mouth, then meowed, prancing over to said object of interest curiously

Mc meanwhile, when she eventually noticed this HUGE FUCKING WHITE FUR CREATURE WITH HUGE BLUE EYES LOCKED ON HER COMING TOWARDS HER SLOWLY

she froze

Elizabeth, Elizabeth no!

Elizabeth recognized it as Mc by her scent and soon gently stopped with some distance between her and Mc and gave a familiar Meow

Jumin walked over to Elizabeth to see what she was looking at

Jumin then froze when he saw Mc

He thought his eyes were deceiving him

Mc looked to Jumin just as surprised and confused as he was

She almost worried what he’d think

…

without a word he calmly walked over to her and kneeled down

Honestly Jumin was tall enough as is but now he was very intimidating

“Mc?” he asked in a surprised tone, his eyes widening a little in surprise and wonder when he got a closer look at her, hunching over a little

You’re small, why is she so small?

“Are you alright? I’m not sure what’s happened but, do you mind if I gently pick you up?” he asked in a smooth manner, focusing on helping Mc remain calm in the situation

Mc nodded “Y-Yes you can”

He nodded and gently helped her into his hand, cupping her comfortably in his grasp as he slowly stood up.

He was literally holding his girlfriend in his hands

He placed her onto the counter and talked to her as he kneeled down a bit

“Mc, this should not be possible, what happened?”

Mc told him she didnt know, this was strange but…

Jumin had to admit

seeing Mc so small like this, was just so cute

She was literally like a doll, he could imagine making so many custom dresses with her

He could even hold her in his very own hands

He liked that

He wanted to hold her close to him, to just hold her in his hands and look over her, he wanted to stroke her with his finger

Where ever she would go, it would always be a close raduis to him, she wouldnt be able to get far but still keep quite busy while he could always be nearby, she could always be in his line of sight, or in a certain area

Honestly he wanted to put her in his shirt pocket where his purple hankerchief is

he just wanted to put her there and have her with him all day, even at work

she would always be with him

Of course, he would rather want her safe and possibly back to normal

but he couldnt help but fantasize

Mc in the meantime, noticed him get that look, oh great

Zen:

You were at the RFA party and you managed to pull off a very successful party

Zen came over to congratulate you and of course spend some time with you~

When he looked away for a moment, then looked back, suddenly you were gone!

He looked around bewildered for you before he heard you call out

“Zen!” in a small voice

He turned to look to where he heard it wide eyed and confused

until he locked eyes on you

you were on the table and waving up at him, concerned

This boy’s eyes just about POPPED outta his head!

Girl you were so small!

He leaned in to get a closer look at you “Mc?!”

Oh my god, this was real, that was you, that was you but very small

this dude just about paniced!!

How did this happen?

Meanwhile the other members noticed Zen freaking out a little but didnt see why

they just kind of raised there eyebrows and just carried on

“calm down calm down, don’t worry mc, we’ll figure out what happened.” he regained a little bit of his composure and thought out loud “This reminds me of an episode or movie scenario huh”

He gently picked you up with your permission, looking over you all protectively and concerned

“Don’t worry princess, your prince shall protect you tonight.”

Que Zen just cuddling you protectively and kind of keeping you safe by cupping you in his hand

to everyone else the whole scene looked weird because they couldn’t really see you but zen looked so goofy and awkward, like what was he hiding

Seven kind of just snickered and took a photo of him of course

Zen’s face was like on servalence like he was making sure no one took what he was hiding

He eventually frantically ran over to Seven to try and get help with the situation

When Jumin came around asking where Mc was Zen’s like

‘She’s not here!’ ‘Zen!’ ‘Sorry, sweetie’

Mc scolds him even in her tiny form

Yoosung:

You two were out on a date, getting milkshakes somewhere, he kind of skipped class to do it oops, but was planning on returning to the next class after

As the two of them were enjoying your time, suddenly Mc shrinks

Yoosung stared gaping at wtf just happened

?????

Yoosung exe stopped working

He noticed her on the table, now next to a huge milkshake

SHE WAS SO SMALL

HOW

WHAT

“Mc!” he leaned forward to get a good look at her, he seemed timid as he did since he was worried that if he did anything she’ll fall and get hurt and-

oh my god so many possibilities of her getting hurt like this!

he gave hushed whispers to mc as he was freaked out too which earned him a weird look from others in the shop, since it looked like he was whispering to the milkshake

oh god what should he do what should he do??

“Uh, um, m-maybe I should put you in my pocket? Or bag uh… Sorry Mc! I want to make sure you’re somewhere cozy and safe until we figure out what to do!”

kind of starts asking mc what it’s like being small, are things more interesting?

Keeps asking her if him being a giant now is freaking her out or that she must tell him if the way he’s handling her is uncomfortable

He’s so timid over little mc, oh god he just wants to protect her T_T

winds up taking her to class with him since.. he didn’t want to leave her on her own like this and, he couldn’t return home yet.

He tried to act as natural in class as possible but you can’t help but notice him on edge

feels so rude doing this to her omg

he kind of just nervously smiles at any of the weird looks the others give him

Mc winds up helping him out with some answers

Jaehae:

*Mc visited her at work

*Jaehae was so busy but mc really wanted to see her, so she decided to make it easy and visit her there

*Mc managed to catch her as they both talked a bit as Jaehae worked on the documents

*So far that’s all she had to do at the moment

*Suddenly Mc shrunk

*Jaehae didn’t notice at first since she was focusing on the documents

*but found it odd that the conversation just stopped

*She looked up and saw mc was just gone

*she looked confused until she noticed something moving on her table

*it was Mc

*Mc was waving at her

*Jaehae let out an audible gasp at the surprise that the other coworkers paused and looked at her for a moment

*She nervously waved it off and looked at tiny mc completely shocked, her hand over her mouth as she lowered down a bit so she could whisper to her

* “Mc, what’s going on?? This shouldn’t be possible”

* Maybe she overworked herself again, she thought, maybe she was just seeing things and just imagined mc being there from the start

* She rested her head into hand and groaned a bit from that

* this was just too much

* “Jaehae, it is me! I don’t know what’s going on”

* Jaehae just kind of stared at Mc with confusion and concern

* if this was real then, she needed to help Mc quick

* Jaehae scooped Mc up slowly and got up to maybe go somewhere quieter or hopefully out of the building, somewhere safer for her

* But just as she stepped out Jumin approached her, oh god worst timing

*Jaehae had quickly put Mc in the collar of her shirt behind her neck in the panic of the moment

*“Assistant Kang, please file the reports for me and bring the documents to my desk.”

* Oh boy his voice sounded scary when you’re small, Mc thought

* “Y-Yes Mr Han”

* She tried to face Jumin with a straight face but she was cleary agitated, which he noticed

* “I just need to do something before I-”

* “I need them now, and you will be joining me for a meeting right after.”

* “Right, Mr Han, I just need to do something quick”

* “Why?”

* He was pretty adamant that things had to be done now

* Jaehae nervously tried to come up with an excuse

* Mc whispered towards Jaehae’s ear making sure to stay out of Jumin’s sight

* “Just say lady troubles”

* Oh god, what a humiliating thing to say but, she did and needless to say that worked immediately

( this kind of reminds me of the scene in mulan when mushu was hiding inside her collar and then made a comment to the one guy like he was a jerk or something and the guy turned around angry lol, just imagine mc calling Jumin a jerk and he thinks jaehae said it sjoee)

Seven:

He was working on his computer as usual and you were quite bored, wanting to get his attention again

Sometimes you’d sit on the couch next to Saeran contemplating ways to yourself on how to get Seven’s attention

Suddenly one day poof!

You shrunk for some reason, and were sitting baffled on the couch

Saeran was looking at you with wide eyes, so confused at what had just happened

As you got up Saeran just slipped out of there so fast, completely spooked

maybe he was hallucinating or something this poor boy

You in the mean time got a great idea!

Yes! No way he can ignore me now, like this!

Still low key freaked out at what just happened

You awkwardly make you way to seven after climbing not so gracefully off of the couch, your butt hurts from that landing

you made your way over to him

“Hey!”

he doesn’t notice, he has head phones on

“HEY!”

Same result

Mc huffed and looked around, she decided she was just going to start throwing things at him

You did find some random objects Seven’s so god damn messy like wow

but most were too heavy for you to carry

You decided to be daring and climb onto the desk he was on

when you finally made it to the top, you were probably more fit than you have been your entire life, jk

Mc then spotted the perfect thing

a packet of honey buddha chips

Mc walked over and grabbed a chip, man the scent was intoxicating but she needed to focus

She walked over to him who was still oblivious and held up the chip, beginning to whistle like you would to get the attention of the dog

then she just threw it at him

that got his attention and he looked to where the chip came from and then saw you

He kind of just stared wide eyed for a minute also thinking he was hallucinating

“MC!” He shot out of his chair in surprise

what how?

Awesome!

he leaned down and looked over you with such fascination, even poking at you as you crossed your arms since you were mad at him for ignoring you earlier, but you’re ticklish so that kind of brought you out of your sulking a bit

but he’s JUST SO FASCINATED!

“Omg you’re so teeny weeny, so little I could just hold you in my hands and aaaaw-” oh my god he was blushing as he cooed over this

“Your clothes and everything is so little! Omg I want to put you in my hair, and hoodie and-” he soon scooped her up gently like she a little kitten or something and gently rubbed his cheek against her as he was fawning

Oh man all the things they could do now! Like

“Let me put you next to Robocat, robo cat look at this!”

he quickly ran to the robocat as if he were an excited child, Mc wasn’t sure if  she was regretting making him notice her

He placed her next to the robocat “oh my word this is too precious! You’re even littler! Let me take a picture!”

“Seven, sto-”

he took the picture

Now off to the robodog, he wanted to put you ontop of it like you’re riding it and took a picture

“Ooooh, I think I have a toy space ship somwhere ah” as he began to look around “No wait I have a better idea” he scooped Mc up and settled her in his hair, “hold on tight! Seven Zero Seven, lauching in-”

“launching?”

“3, 2-”

“Seven wai-”

“ONE!”

and there he took off running like a naruto ninja

Just what has this brought out of him

Saeran was just sitting somewhere rubbing his temples as his brother ran around like a maniac

Dear god this household

Later Seven would come up with all sorts of pranks you guys could pull off, but liked holding you to him like a little plushie, you were just. so. cute

Saeran:

Mc and Saeran were just chilling, maybe doing some house chores since someone doesn’t

You were both having a normal conversation and as a reward after doing all the work you decided to get out some ice cream for the both of you

As you were you put some in a bowl, suddenly poof! You were tiny, and still holding a giant spoon, you fell over and the spoon clattered

the noise attracting Saeran’s attention as he comes over to where you were, looking for you

“Mc? Are you alrig-” he looks at the bowl of ice cream and looks around again, did you rush off to somewhere?

You propped yourself up and rubbed your back from when you fell over

“Saeran, here” your small voice said

He looked in the direction of your voice and his eyes just stopped on you

He just froze

Kept staring

Anyday now buddy

he then looked around as if doubting what he was seeing, no way the real mc is probably in the other room or something right?

He kind of stepped back and then reluctantly looked at you again, you waved at him

oh god it was you

“Mc? Mc, what on earth happened to you??”

he was freaked out, bending a bit to get a closer look

you know like how cats do that thing with their back when their freaked out, yeah that’d probably sum him up

he sometimes wonders if this is the after affect after taking those pills at mint eye

he timidly poked at Mc

Yeah she seemed real

“Saeran, take deep breathes okay?” he nodded and did so

“I-I should get seven, maybe he’ll know? I don’t know um…” he felt awkward, he wanted to help but didn’t know how

but he had one idea

he took a spoon and took a small amount of ice cream and then gave some to Mc

this poor awkward boy

was kinda sweet though lol pun

he rearranged some of close by objects so Mc would have something to sit on and have something to put her ice cream on, he gave her a small amount on a tin foil rap? he couldn’t find anything like a bowl for her size so he was improvising

She was cute tho, he had to admit

pet her head gently with his finger and stuck his tongue out at her, teasing

she puffed up her cheeks but smiled

what a weird but cute day

he probably keeps on improvising things for Mc at her current size so that she is comfortable at least until they find a solution

I guess Saeran’s freaked out by little people or something lol he got spooked twice

V:

You both were sitting together on the couch when it happened, he was laying back relaxed

of course he doesn’t notice it happen

he can’t see

but he does feel the warmth of you presence dissapear

“Mc? Are you here?”

“Y-Yeah?”

“Your voice sounds different, are you okay?”

“Um, V, don’t freak out”

?

Mc touched his hand, with her now much SMALLER hand

?????

“Mc you-” he lifted his hand and gently felt her, hair? shirt? all in one place?

“I shrunk” Mc stated bluntly, she was worried since he couldn’t see well he might accidently swat her away when moving his hand or any sudden movements

He finds this really odd, but this tiny version of her moved and felt weird

Mc giggled as he kept gently touching her

He can get so curious sometimes it was adorable

He smiled and continued to do it, it tickled her

she put her hands up as she laughed “Okay okay I think you get the idea haha”

“Do I? I’m not sure if I completely get the idea, I need to investigate more.” and so he continued to gently tickle her as he chuckled softly

Mc just hugged his hand to get him to keep still, she was still giggling

His hand was so warm, especially when she hugged it at this size

It was always warm and comforting when she held hands with him

but she felt so secure in his grasp and just wanted to cuddle against his hand

V noticed this and smiled “You like this?” he could feel Mc nod against his finger

He gently picked her up and placed her against his chest, keeping her scooped up in his hand as he breathed in slow, she could hear his heartbeat and his breathing made her feel so calm, and his hand felt so warm and secure.

Mc let out a happy sigh and cuddled into him as he stroked her hair a bit with his finger

“You are so cute, Mc.”

Very nice, but the images could be larger The idea is of taking underwater pix of dogs is revolutionary and the purchase is certainly worth it. Yet, my mistake, I hadn't realized that the book's dimensions do not allow any larger picture. Double-page images being cut right in the middle due to the binding, the pictures appear less beautiful than they could. Go to Amazon

Dogs + Water I assume dogs have ALWAYS looked like this when they are diving & playing in the water. Now, Seth Casteel has captured for us views that have never been seen before. After a 1-page introduction, each turn of a page shows a photo of a dog looking into water or diving under the surface pursuing a toy. Each dog is identified by name, breed, & age. One looks like a shark, one looks like a donkey, others look like alligators. Nearly all have their eyes wide open, the better to follow a ball or other toy. Some appear goofy (like the dog on the cover), some appear scary, all are intensely focused. Go to Amazon

If you're a dog lover - you need this book! I received my copy of "Underwater Dogs" on Tuesday and I without a doubt think this is the best dog photography book I have ever seen and I actually own quite a few as I am a huge dog lover. The pictures in this book are unlike anything I have ever seen up until a few months ago when I, like thousands of other people, discovered Seth Casteel's website and his amazing underwater photos. Not only are the photos themselves so unique but the clarity of them are incredible and the colors just pop!! The expressions on these waterloving dogs are something out of a Dr. Suess book. Who knew dogs looked like this underwater? I will tell you who knew, Seth! And he captures these expressions with amazing skills and what is one heck of a good camera. These pictures are as professional as you can get and yet there is such a playfulness that it keeps it from being unlike any other dog portrait book. As for the actual book itself I was impressed at how well the book is made. A book of this quality could easily sell for 2 - 3 times this Amazon price. At $12 this book is a steal and I, for one, plan to "steal" about a dozen more copies to give as Christmas presents to my dogloving friends and family. The other thing I really like about this book is that it is a true coffee table book. Some coffee table books have way too much writing. Guests sitting on your couch dont' want to read a War and Peace novel. They want a book they can flip through and look at pictures. But as fun and entertaining as these pictures are I don't think anyone could just flip through this one. They will have to look at each and every page as every page offers an entirely different view of the underwater life of dogs. Some are wide mouthed, all teeth and look like sharks honing in on their prey which most of the time is a tennis ball. Others look serenely under the water as if they are trying to discover some secrets of the deep. While others have goofy grins that seem to stretch for miles under the distortion of the water. There is even one very interesting photo of a yellow dog where somehow Seth captures the image of the dog's face in a bubble that the dog himself is breathing out under water. I think other photographers could take thousands of underwater photos and never capture an image as unique as that. How he did it I don't know but I do know this. Seth Casteel has mastered the art of photographing dogs. His "land" portraits are just as impressive and I am so glad he included at the back of the book a small portrait of each dog so you can see what they really look like. This book is an absolute must if you love dogs and I think should be one of the best selling Christmas presents under $25 for this coming season. Bravo, Mr. Casteel, your book is utterly fantastic and as a fellow doglover, I thank you for showing those of us with waterloving dogs what they really look like down there in the deep end. Go to Amazon

Great photos- but they need to republish it with photos off-centered so the dogs' faces can be seen! This book has some very funny and beautiful photographs of these dogs. It is one of those books that is not only good for the intended recipient, but also will entertain any guests one may have. Go to Amazon

Same photos as the 2014 Appt book I love underwater dogs and this is my second calendar, but I do have to say I'm extremely disappointed in the photos. They are the same photos that were in the 2014 appointment book. There's nothing new to see here. If you have the 2014 calendar and accompanying appointment book, the 2015 Calendar are those same pictures. I had assumed a new year would bring new photos. Go to Amazon

Beautiful, funny pictures but many ruined by layout of book. A laugh out loud funny and sweet testimony to the awesomeness of dogs. I think the photographs are beautiful. My only complaint is many of the pages have the dogs face right across the spine/binding so you can't see it very well. It wasn't laid out well- who would do that to a beautiful picture? I first saw this at Barnes and Noble bookstore and wanted to buy it really bad but I'm glad I bought it used on Amazon, after looking through it a few times, I was over it and glad I didn't spend $20 plus on it at the bookstore. A must see, must share book for dog lovers. Go to Amazon

Outstanding gift for dog lovers- even if to yourself! If you are looking for an outstanding gift for a dog lover, these books are the ticket. You'll get smiles and even tears (if the lover is more of and obsessed with dogs person, don't ask me how I know) when you give these as gifts. The quality of the pictures and printing is outstanding, there are many different breeds and it's a great coffee table conversation piece as well. Go to Amazon

Adorable book Love this goofy book. I got it for Christmas from my boyfriends sister and I have it on my coffee table as a conversational book. Everyone always reaches for it becuase the cover is so funny & cute. I bought one for my grandpa who's a crazy dog person. He absolutely loved it. It's a great gift for that special dog person in your life. Go to Amazon

I am very happy I picked this brand Adorable Photos, Dissapointing Quality Five Stars It was listed as used, but you couldnt tell ... Cute! excellent picture book Five Stars Fun book great gift for dog lovers Very enjoyable.
