#this must've been like the first time jimin left him on his own during their days off 😂

[thoughtsonkm]

The most improbable thing might happen and IT actually happened today!! Never kill yourself!!

It's not a JK wlive without a Jimin mention

The way I immediately mechanically taped at the notification as soon as it popped up. I truly thought I was hallucinating.

Now that we've discovered this is actually allowed I feel like a whole lot of possibilities opened. Even though this is delulu talking bc we already know this 2 hour live was to keep us going until June.

I love the entertainment room he built for himself, it'll be the perfect place for his wlives without showing much of the actual house. (the 3 above ground floors yk)

That Die with a smile cover was truly the icing on the cake for me!

The little Jimin facts here and there, at least we get to know a little of what he's been up to.. 🥹😭

[dearweirdme]

"In regards to Jimin and Jk's edges, I was pointing out that Jk doesn't like being babied. He likes being cared for, but he does not much like the pointing out of him being the youngest."

the thing is though, jimin doesn't baby jungkook that much, in fact, they baby each other rather equally and there's an abundance of proof for this.

"So if Hyungs (especially those close in age like Jimin) started to baby him, he did not like that. He must've been fickle at times about it I think."

that's exactly how their dynamic is, jk used to treat jimin like they're same age ever since they met, and jimin called him out tons of times on his lack of honorifics but always in a joking matter, never seriously enough for them to clash. jungkook still talks in banmal to jimin today and jimin finds no issue with it.

"Jimin likes being the older brother though, so I feel that clashed at times in the beginning. The rainy day situation to me points to a clashing in that area."

the rainy day fight happened because jimin tried to tell jungkook (and taehyung) to be better for their hyungs, to have a better attitude, which is something jk lacked in at the time, hence why the fight happened. jk himself admitted that he had a terrible attitude and his ego was hurt because he didn't like getting called out by jimin (who jk doesn't treat like a hyung like the rest) so he lashed out on him forgetting that jimin is older than him, so jimin got mad at him and left. and jk reflected on his actions, swallowed his pride because he cared more about jimin than his own hurt ego, apologized because he didn't wanna lose jimin.

"I think Tae and Jk had less of that, because Tae is less hung up on the hyung situation. Even though Jk might've not wanted to drop honorifics at first.. I feel their relationship started to level out sooner than Jimin and Jk's relationship."

taehyung and jungkook never clash because neither of them care enough to challenge the hierarchy in their dynamic. ever since debut they got along quick because they're the two youngest and they have similar personalities, hence the "we always get scolded together but we never fight", for them to fight their needs to be an emotional depth to their dynamic in the first place. taehyung tried to get jk to drop honorifics with him to make him more comfortable—during the period when they drifted apart—and feel closer to taehyung, but jk refused because he wanted to maintain the hierarchy in their dynamic, which makes you think why he didn't try to challenge it (if taekook are dating) like he did with jimin, who's the same age as taehyung and is supposedly just his hyung like the rest of them? jk fought for his right to drop honorifics with jimin (not in a literal sense cause jimin never really found an issue with it until jk started being rude to him) because he wanted to be jimin's equal in their relationship, that's why he gets to 'scold' him, etc. stuff that he wouldn't get to do if jimin's hyung card had any real weight to it. as opposed to him refusing to be perceived as taehyung's equal so he refused to drop honorifics with him even though taehyung asked him to. he wants taehyung to keep his hyung status. which taehyung actually uses sometimes to make jungkook do stuff for him, like cooking him breakfast (ITS2) or join him on IG live though jk was hesitant, just because "taehyung hyung will take full responsibility". it's evident that taehyung still treats jungkook as a dongsaeng.

not to mention, jungkook and taehyung have nothing to fight about because their bond possibly has no emotional depth or complexity, at least not to the extent tkkrs think they have. "taekook never fight" is not something to brag about because a couple is bound to fight, a couple will always clash about things, especially in the earliest stages of their relationship when they're still figuring out things. taekook hit it off right from the beginning with no issues whatsoever and neither of them tried to challenge the age hierarchy because their bond is a normal hyung-dongsaeng relationship. while jikook had to figure out how to get along with jk—the younger one—insisting to drop honorifics and challenging jimin—his hyung—to treat him as an equal, something partners with an age gap (even though jikook don't have a big age gap, it's just how hierarchy works in korea) would do to have a leveled out relationship with an equal power dynamic.

Hi anon!

Wow, this made me figure something out. You think the moments where Jimin is being a good Hyung are actually romantic moments between him and Jk. This literally hit me because of your ask. It makes so much sense, because the only one Jimin is a proper Hyung to is Jk. I think he also acts like Hyung to Tae a lot, but ofcourse those moments are being seen as friends caring for each other (which it also is) and not as Hyung/dongsaeng situation. So there’s no other member we see Jimin act as Hyung with and therefore we cannot actually compare. And without comparison, it is easy for you to say.. he only acts like this with Jk.. which is partly true… but not because it’s romantic, but because Jimin has no-one else to be hyung to.

Omg, you are really showing lack of knowledge here anon, basically about everything you talk about. What is it with the war-like situation you describe, ‘challenging’ ‘fighting to be equals’. You don’t fight to become equal, you just become equals because that is what your connection is like. Despite the age difference and the social standards and customs that comes with, Tae and Jk became equals naturally, because it felt that way. It is one thing to use age appropriate language, but the feelings of respect and equality are not dependent on language. Feelings come from within, and ignore boundaries set by language. It is for instance perfectly possible to adres someone with the proper words, and yet feel no respect at all for that person. Age is not a prerequisite for respect even though we are taught to be respectful to our elders. Feeling equal has nothing to do with age sett boundaries, it has to do with recognizing same values and feelings in the other. Everyone clings to the story of Jk refusing to drop honorifics with Tae in the beginning, but it is very clear (and shows in the ITS conversation) that that was only early on.

Jk even specified that it applied to both Tae and Jimin. He saw them both as Hyungs early on. And I think, we are talking about really early on here.

Things changed after that. And all of them got closer and with closeness and trust and knowledge about each other also came more informal use of language. I know Jikookers make a huge thing out of Jk talking banmal with Jimin, but when you go to neutral sources on how members communicate, all of them say the same thing: the younger ones (Tae, Jk, and Jimin) speak more informally to each other and all of them drop honorifics at times. It is not something Jk only does with Jimin, Jk is known to be the one who drops honorifics most often, with anyone. During BTS run mini field day he dropped the Hyung with Jin. During Yoongi’s show he clearly yelled ‘Yoongi’ several times. Now you could say it was for show, but still.. that should count for more because the insult would have been bigger. Compare it to Jk saying ‘Seo-joon hyung’ at the Dream premiere. Members are just that close that they know dropping honorifics at times (at the right times) won’t cause a problem.

Out of the three of them, Jimin is clearly the hyung. Always taking care of both Tae and Jk, always the more responsible one. I think you take those moments of Jimin acting like Hyung as romantic moments between Jimin and Jk.. and they are not. Jimin taking care of Tae is not that different from Jimin taking care of Jk.

that's exactly how their dynamic is, jk used to treat jimin like they're same age ever since they met, and jimin called him out tons of times on his lack of honorifics but always in a joking matter, never seriously enough for them to clash. jungkook still talks in banmal to jimin today and jimin finds no issue with it.

Yes, that is Jimin’s way of being a Hyung. Jimin is kind, he will not act harshly.. but he does call it out. And yes, I do think Jk started to treat both Jimin and Tae like they were the same age. They all became very close and with closeness comes more informal ways of interacting.

the rainy day fight happened because jimin tried to tell jungkook (and taehyung) to be better for their hyungs, to have a better attitude, which is something jk lacked in at the time, hence why the fight happened. jk himself admitted that he had a terrible attitude and his ego was hurt because he didn't like getting called out by jimin (who jk doesn't treat like a hyung like the rest) so he lashed out on him forgetting that jimin is older than him, so jimin got mad at him and left. and jk reflected on his actions, swallowed his pride because he cared more about jimin than his own hurt ego, apologized because he didn't wanna lose jimin.

“He lashed out on him forgetting that Jimin is older than him, so Jimin got mad at him and left”… exactly! This is similar to Tae and Jin’s argument, where Jimin also pointed out the ‘same goes for Jk’.

It’s not about caring more about jimin than his own hurt ego (but that also is hopefully correct) it’s about Jk knowing he was in the wrong for lashing out at a Hyung.

Jimin is not the stereotypical serious scolding Hyung type, none of the members are. But he is Hyung and acted like it towards Tae and Jk. Less so these days ofcourse, since they are all matured and it truly is more equal between all of them.

Your lack of knowledge about Tae and Jk is astonishing really. I mean, I’ve had plenty of Jkkrs who can at least admit that Tae and Jk are close. That Tae helped Jk get out of his shell (hello, deep emotional connection) that Tae is a source of comfort for Jk and that Jk feels ar ease with him. You have clearly not looked at our side of the story, or you wouldn’t have made these statements. If you’re going to argue your case with me, you should at least know what you are talking about. You say there have been no arguments between Tae and Jk when there is clear footage of them having issues. You can find it easily, yet you are locked in your Jikook bubble and you’ve probably not ever looked at what Tkkrs believe. So please come back when you have, because right now you sound very… uneducated in BTS.

You make love sound like a war-zone anon. Fighting for equality, challenging hierarchy, that is not how it goes. You fall in love all those things don’t matter, because people with differences in age fall in love all the time.. and they do not struggle for equality and hierarchy because of age gaps between them. What kind of messed up situation is that?

Warning: none, just heart-wrenching fluff and love for animals.

Word Count: 2,148

You must've been cursed; that must be it. Since you were a child, your heart has been cursed with softness. Yup! You're were so soft and sensitive, your little heart could never understand the concept of being cold. This was no different when it came to animals. You appreciated the existence of such pure souls in this cruel world. But then you're a child how could you understand the term or the concept of being cruel. Well, humans were the embodiment of that term, you were convinced. Convinced that a man who hit a poor donkey so harshly is cruel, a woman who shooed a starved kitten is cruel, a man who kept his dog out in the streets during cold nights is cruel, a family who abandons a disabled or an aged dog is cruel. Your poor little heart can't take it.

You remember the incident of the donkey and how his owner mistreated him; you instantly turned to your dad demanding that he must take an action and I quote "daddy, you must hit the man because he's being mean to the donkey!" Which he replied to saying "yes, dear of course; I'll do that." But as any parent would in this situation he promised you empty words, passing the terrible incident and driving away. "Why aren't you doing anything?" The baby you pouted in anger as your car moved away. "Sweetie, I promise I'll return to shout at the man for committing such a terrible act." And of course, as any child would, you trusted your dad to handle the situation.

You just couldn't grasp the mentality of these cruel people, more importantly, your mind couldn't help and create weird scenarios in your head such as: what if this kitty is lost? She must feel cold! She must feel hungry! She must be afraid! And your poor heart was the victim of these thoughts. Your Heart was soft to the point that you would literally shed tears if a cat or a dog looked at you cutely. You would coo at him/her then start crying because and I quote, again "It must feel terrible that they can't express to us how they're feeling, I mean what if he/she is trying to tell us something, but we can't understand him/her!" you'd say with tears flowing down your baby face. You couldn't even bring yourself to categorise animals under the subject "it" when talking or referring to an animal you would always address it according to its gender because you believed that they feel the same way humans feel, and they deserve to be appreciated and loved.

It didn't help that your parents were very strict about their "No pets" rule. You have always wanted to care for a soul; however, that was a big no from your parents. This led to you taking interest in every living animal that passed you by in the streets or was owned by your friends to fill this void in your heart. For instance, you will never forget that one time when you said: "hello kitty!" enthusiastically to a street cat while walking around with a friend of yours. The poor thing stood in its place stiff like a statue of a pharaonic cat as you addressed it. "Oh look, it turned to me when I said hi kitty because it knows it's a cat... Awww!" You said with the same enthusiasm to your friend who witnessed the whole thing wondering if you're sane enough to be let out in the streets or not. "Oh Lord, give me strength!" She said walking away from you. "Bye kitty!"

Today like any other day, you agreed with your fiancé, Jungkook, that you'd meet after you both finish work to have lunch together. "Same as usual?" Jungkook croaked an eyebrow as his eyes scanned the menu for the millionth time in hopes to find a new item that he might like to try, but this was an old restaurant, it never really added anything new to the menu. You hummed looking out of the window next to you. It was raining lightly and the weather was getting chilly by the minute. After placing your orders, Jungkook started telling you about his day as usual as you waited for the food to arrive. "… and Jimin-ssi broke the record today for falling out of the chair. Seriously how could he keep falling out of a chair this easily, I mean the chair was right there!" He laughed looking at you expecting you laugh as well but it seemed that your mind was elsewhere, or your eyes were elsewhere. "Jagiya, what are you looking at?" He turned his gaze to where you were staring. There, by the bus station was a shivering small black kitten that looked like it wanted to fall asleep but couldn't because of the cold. The poor thing was shivering wildly. It also looked like it was malnourished. He looked back at you to find you frowning with pouty lips and teary eyes. "Kookie!" You whined and looked at him, pleading to let you go help the kitten. He already knew what you were thinking, and he loved you for it. Your big heart that spread warmth and generosity in abundance was always something that left him in awe. "You know they won't allow me in with her!" Your puppy eyes were killing him, already. He chuckled, "you know already that it's a girl?" He was constantly shocked by how you could tell whether the animal you were talking about was a boy or a girl, and you rarely guessed wrong. "You know the deal." You chuckled standing up. You took off your scarf and went outside.

You approached the poor kitten slowly so not to startle it. "Hey, baby! You cold?" Your voice took an entirely different tone as if you were talking to a child trying to coax it. "It's okay, I am not going to hurt you." You said heart aching at the way she tried to step away from you. You wrapped her into the warm scarf, petting her to calm her down and to let her know that you didn't intend on hurting her.

Jungkook made his way to you with an umbrella and both of your food, in his other hand that he told the waiter that he would take it away instead of eating in the restaurant. His heart swelled at the view of you gently brushing your finger behind its ears. He sighed taking a seat next to you. You pulled a piece of chicken from your plate, feeding it to the kitten. "Awww, she must have been so hungry." You said as the poor thing devoured the chicken in seconds. "Where's your mummy?" You spoke to the kitten, it only meowed back at you which made your eyes teary. "What if she's lost!" You pouted looking at Jungkook. "Awww Jagiya I am sure her mum went to get her some food." He said scratching the back of his head, not really knowing what to do. He just hated to see you this sad. Your pout intensified as your head made up scenarios such as what if the kitten's mum got hit by a car? Or what if she's not returning? and so on. "We could wait a bit if you want? You know, to make sure that she's safe." He said shrugging. You smiled at him thankful that he put your heart at ease, seeing that you can't find it in you to leave the poor kitten alone. You kept on feeding the kitten as a couple of hours passed by, and yet her mum didn't show up. "Jagiya, you have nothing left to eat!" Jungkook frowned at the empty plate, noting in the back of his head to order you something else when you go home. "It's okay I am not that hungry." You said gaze and mind lost in the petite kitten that now found warmth and comfort in your lap, engulfed by your cosy scarf.

Jungkook knew that you won't eat if another being was hungry, even if you were starving. He smiled, a light bulb appeared above his head, "you know..." You reluctant tore your gaze from the kitten to look at your fiancé. " We can take it home." He smiled widely. "It's a she!" You scoffed then gasped after you realised what he was saying. "Are you... saying that we can keep it?" Your eyes widened at his suggestion. His bunny-like features lit up as he simply shrugged. You shrieked in happiness, "Kookie you're the best!" You said planting a kiss on his cheek. You apologised for the kitten afterwards for startling her, "awww, sorry baby!" You patted her.

You couldn't wipe the smile off of your face as you went to the vet first thing to give her the required vaccinations, clean her up and trim her claws. "We should buy her a few toys, too!" You said lost in thought as you waited for your kitten to finish. Jungkook looking at you in awe, he couldn't help how cute you looked. "… Because you know how mum and dad feel about pets." You were babbling, turning your head towards Jungkook, missing the way he leaned in to capture your lips with his. He kissed you softly and passionately that you were lost when he pulled away. "W-what was that for?" You whispered, his forehead resting on yours as you opened your eyes slowly. "Nothing, you're just so cute I couldn't help it." He chuckled.

"Mr Jeon, Mrs L/N, your pet is all set, did you settle on a name, yet?" A nurse came out holding the kitten in a blue blanket. You grabbed her gently as Jungkook shook his head, "Nah not yet." He turned to you, "do you have anything in mind babe?" You nodded eagerly like a child, "yeah I have a few! But we need to settle on something." You looked at Jungkook who chuckled at your child-like behaviour.

Apparently, on your way to the vet you went through the internet looking for a unique name for your kitten. "I like blackie" Jungkook said eyeing the rest of the list, "I like it to, but I feel like it's racist." You pouted hating the idea of naming her "blackie" because she's black. Jungkook chuckled, "okay, how about Luna?" You hummed, then claimed that it was not unique enough.

"What about Twinkie?"

"Doesn't seem like a girl's name!"

"Babe you're the one who made this list!" He looked up from your phone to see you looking at the kitten instead. "Well, they sounded pretty when I wrote them down, but now that we're serious about keeping her, I feel like I'm picking my child's name. Kook this is a huge responsibility!" You pouted looking at him. He laughed at how you were taking this so seriously, but he understood, you have always wanted a pet, and now that you were having one it felt surreal.

"How about Selena?"

"Sounds posh for a cat!" Jungkook erupted in laughter. Oh God this was going to be fun, he thought shaking his head.

"Did you get it?" You jumped in anticipation as Jungkook returned home with your kitten's gift. He chuckled, "Yup" you jumped from your seat running over to him to see it. It was a collar with her name engraved on a golden piece. "It looks beautiful!" You squealed. "Yeah, baby it does." He said kissing your forehead. There laid the name "Angel" in a neat font. You know it's not that unique but you truly felt that the name suited her perfectly. She stood there looking up at both you and Jungkook, head tilted to the side wondering what's going on. You put the collar around her neck as she kept staring at you with her baby blue eyes that made your heart melt. "I think am in love!" You whispered in awe with teary eyes, Jungkook laughed loudly, thanking God for gifting him with a precious hearted partner as you.

That night you and Jungkook went to bed with Angel sleeping cosily between the two of you. "Thank you." You whispered, patting Angel's soft fur. "What for?" Jungkook looked up to you with doe eyes filled with puzzlement. "For allowing me to experience this, I mean you could have said no to taking Angel in." You whispered, refusing to think of what could have happened to her if you left her that day on the streets. "Babe, it's nothing. I don't even know why we haven't thought of it earlier, you know I don't mind pets." He said shrugging. "Still, thank you. I wanted this for so long." Jungkook looked at you with a soft gaze. He kissed your forehead, muttering a "good night", contentment filling his heart for the new addition to your little family.
