➤ REWIND

parings: Mina x Fem!Reader

genre: angst

warnings; break up

summary; a story based on the song 알고 싶지 않아 (REWIND)

note: this is my first ever story;) and i hope you enjoyed it. I might make this into a full story of you and Mina getting back together😻 I love my bias wrecker Mina😍😻😽

I don't wanna know how you’re doing. When I look back, it was nothing at all

Looking back at all the fun times you had with Mina hurts. The days when the both of you would play Roblox and Minecraft for hours laughing and giggling over the littlest things now just are memories. It was about 6 months since you and Mina got together and the both of you were inseparable. Your duo was the most loved by the Once’s and everyone loved your relationship especially the other 8 members of TWICE.

I'm doing alright, just like what you said, The dream I've wished for has come true; I’m not curious about you

Today, Mina said that she needed a break from the relationship and it looked like she was happier away from you… It hurt alot but you knew you couldn’t destroy yourself over her. You tried over and over again to contact her but she only said that ‘You’ll be alright Y/n. its alright to be hurt about us but we need space’

I didn't know it would be this simple; Was our break up that easy for you? Now it's all in the past.

You didnt think the two of you would need to ever have a break since you both always talked everything out and you both were happy but to her it wasnt. She had broken up with you and she didn’t really care at all either even after all of the times you reached out to fix things she never responded and broke you so much.

My pretty figure when loved someone so much. I miss you so much

Once has noticed the change in your demeanor every time you went on v-live and someone asked about your relationship with Mina. They said it loon like you wanted to cry and tell them the truth but you knew you couldn’t. And it was all true.. You loved Mina so much and you would do anything for her but it obviously was the same for her.

I don't wanna know how you're doing; When I look back, it was nothing at all

Its been a weeks since the both of you broke up and your members found out you and Mina broke up but Mina wasnt there and they asked you what happened but you didn’t care for her anymore and you just told them that Mina fell out of love and now you could care less about her..

Im doing alright, just like what you said. The dream I've wished for has come true; I'm not curious about you

Its been a month since you’ve broke up and you finally feel a little bit better about yourself since you’ve broken up with Mina and now it was time for the READY TO BE’ World Tour |||| and you knew you would have to act like the 2 of you were in a relationship but you decided not, You did have to interact with her for your duo parts in MOONLIGHT SUNRISE and when Nayeon spun the wheel and your other duo parts in other songs.

Our relationship wasn’t as beautiful as the ones in the movies. It was just the kind of love everyone has. Or did I’ve changed so much? (Yеah)

Maybe your ready to speak to Mina again but you see that shes already texted you. She began to say how sorry she was and asking you in you could restart your friendship even if it doesn’t lead to us getting back together. But you don’t respond; You’re a completely different then you were 2 months ago, your not the girl who lets people back into her life even if they hurt you anymore but even then you look back and think ‘maybe i should give her 1 more chance’

Because of how you're likе that back then. I couldn’t help but to hate you, I endured it like that; You gave me everything

It was so hard to go from loving someone to hating them but that was the best thing to do so; just to save yourself and not fall into a depressing life. Even when you were in a relationship, she gave you everything. All of her attention, love and trust but you guessed it wasn’t enough. The days she wouldnt text you at all or even acknowledge your existence but you didnt realize it till it was too late and she left.

I don't wanna know how you're doing. When I look back, it was nothing at all

Now its been a few weeks since the READY TO BE’ World Tour happened and you were so much happier with being with ONCE but every time you saw a poster with Mi(N/N) it just hit you hard and You just smiled at them and not saying anything about Mina. But you knew that she didnt mean anything anymore since she left you so she obviously didnt care at all.

I'm doing alright, just like what you said. The dream I’ve wished for has come true; I'm not curious

It was encore and it was the Likey dance break and Momo said that you and Mina should do the dance break together and you wanted to break down and cry but Twice and Once began to chant you and Mina’s duo name so that made the both of you walk to the center of the stage and do the dance break. When the dance break finished she held your hand and you felt so happy that she wasn’t giving you the cold shoulder. And she whispered in your ear that shes sorry and she loves you soo much.

I don't wanna know. Ooh-ooh. I'm not curious. Yeah-yeah

You didnt even want to think about what Mina really said to you but when you all said your goodbyes and got off of the stage Mina grabbed your hand and brought the two of you into the bathroom. And she begged for your forgiveness but you couldn’t give it to her after she broke your heart. No yet of course..

I don't wanna know how you're doing. When I look back, it was nothing at all

Its been a few days since you last spoke to Mina and you finally responded to Minas numerous text messages that she was explaining that she was inna bad head space and she didn’t really mean to hurt you. But it was very hard to forgive her after she put you through hell. All the memories you both had were nothing to you.

I'm doing alright, just like what you said. The dream I've wished for has come true; I'm not curious

You went to Jihyo and talked to her about you and Minas problems and she told you that Mina was tell the truth. She also told you about how much Mina cried to her about how she treated you and that she couldnt even look at me without feeling shameful about what she has done. You would of never even though Mina even though that was because how how she looked on the outside. She always looked slightly upset anytime a interviewer asked about you and hows you think of the World Tour. Because she knew that you loved preforming infront of ONCE..

I don't wanna know how you're doing. When I look back, it was nothing at all

But you couldnt take her back this easily, Not when you cried to your therapist about how much she has hurt you and you didnt want to go back down that path. All of the memories you both made in her house, at your favorite stores and many other places just makes you sick. Just maybe. One day you will take Mina back…

More Pacific Drive Ramblings

This game has me by the neck. It's so intriguing in a way I don't often get to experience. I'm not a regular gamer, and it's really easy to put me off from a game if it's either too bright, too busy, or too hard/forgiving for my fumbling hands. I like games that give me a goal, but let me get there at my own pace using whatever path I find works for me. Games that have a life lived within them, have a history, have a past and a future. Games that just are and what that is to me is determined by what I find and how I find it. Where lore is found on the surface, and answers are found deep beneath the earth. I can find those answers if I want them, or I can just play the game and let it be. I can get from point A to B and be done with it.

But I'm already planning on playing more, playing it again. I've made an actual shopping list of the materials I'll need to create and all-electric vehicle. I've imagined myself actually traversing these hellscapes, navigating both on foot and behind the wheel, I've pondered a no-car run since my first minute of playtime, and now, as I'm trying and failing to focus on other tasks that I need to complete, all I can think of is playing again.

TOTK had me pretty bad, but only up until I finished the game, I've hardly touched it since. Stardew Valley has had so many restarts, I couldn't tell you what the original plan for my first farm was if I tried. Minecraft? Forget it. Skyrim? Can't be bothered. Party games? I'm an introvert, parties are a very rare thing.

Pacific Drive makes me want to get out and explore almost as much as it makes me want to run crying back to the relative safety of my vehicle. The environments are beautifully crafted maps of confusing anomalies and debris, chock full of this or that, and brimming with an ambience so unenviably ominous that I feel like I'm back in the woods and all by myself.

My only real, both human AND intelligent, companions are voices on a radio. Voices of people that may not even be real. Voices that could have been recorded a day, a week, ten years ago, or maybe even some unknown future date. Time is weird here. I could be completely alone for all I know.

Alone, defenseless, but nonetheless determined to survive.

#Pacific Drive #look i love this game #was not expecting to but it do #i might go on about this thing for a while #getting doodle and writing ideas by the minute #nothing concrete yet though #don't get your hopes up #troblsomthots

Bored so posting about my life don't mind me ^^' On today's episode : Aypierre !

I'm French so I knew about Aypierre before qsmp, he's one of the biggest and most well known minecraft streamer in France I would say, but I never really cared about his streams.

When qsmp started, I didn't watch his pov either, too busy watching Antoine and discovering my new favorite streamer Badboyhalo! So I mischaracterised q!aypierre a lot, thinking he was only playing with Redstone and create while making sex rp with Max (I really had no clue, had I? ^^')

But as time passed, he interacted more and more with my mains, and I liked those interactions. So I became curious. And I actually started watching. And yes, sometimes his humor isn't really for me, but I discovered how caring q!aypierre can be, how deep, depressing and interesting his personal lore is, and how trustworthy and faithful he is to the ones who win his friendship. And right before the prison arc, I was finally really watching and enjoying his character.

So it makes me sad that he feels frustrated about the restart and I understand, he really had some cool projects going on (like most ccs tbh). I heard he might give a chance to the server tomorrow and I really hope he'll enjoy it, because even if he may appear more discreet, his character is still bringing a lot to the server and I'm sure I won't be the only one to miss him if he decides to wait until his builds are available again.

#just saw what he said about bbh and pomme on his server #and i wanted to talk #cause im bored #qsmp #qsmp2024 #qsmp aypierre #aypierre

Chia Jasmine Ivy

chia ⇢ what’s an inside joke you have with someone else?

These are hard to think of on the spot, although I'm sure I've a lot of them. How about an unspoken rule instead.

So, for this example, I'll use Minecraft, but this applies to anything and everything. Deo dies a lot. He'll lose all his fancy supplies, the diamond pickax and armor. The cobalt hammer. Three full squares of food. All the time. We just shrug it off because it's normal now, however... if I die once, he will come to my aid and help me replenish all my shit because otherwise, my mood will destroy everything. I never die. I always mass produce food and supplies and like to dig and build and I'm really good at avoiding fights, so I usually die from sudden creepers, and even that's rare. (We always play on survival. It's too boring otherwise.)

How it applies to other things:

Deo - computer crashes and he loses all his information and games, etc. "Darn. So you're going to be spending the next day or two getting it all back?" Said nonchalantly.

Me - my computer goes to sleep once (which is actually an issue, it doesn't like to wake up and I'll have to restart it.) Deo drops everything and is on standby until I've restarted the computer and confirmed I didn't lose anything or it's not going to be a happy day.

So I guess it's kind of an inside joke. Deo's so used to losing his information or dying, it's not a big thing, but I almost never lose any, ever, so me losing even that one paragraph I just wrote before the laptop went to sleep is such a monumental loss in comparison. I kid you not, the amount of full information restarts Deo has gone through on the regular is unfathomable. He just recovered from one four days ago because he's "mad at Windows". I don't know what this means, I just know it's a minor inconvenience. (Constant, but minor.)

jasmine ⇢ do you have a movie or book you loved but will never watch/read again?

An Olsen Twins mystery adventure that I read growing up. It was about as long as a Goosebumps book and I remember really liking it, but even back then it was a guilty pleasure. Now, I don't even remember what it was about and I can only imagine it being stupid and annoying. (Sorry not sorry.) I still have my favorite Goosebumps book though, and actually read that some time in the past 2 years. Just as good as I remember. ^^ (I Am Your Evil Twin by the way, in case you were interested.)

ivy ⇢ what are your ‘tells’ for your emotions and moods? how can someone tell you’re happy, annoyed, upset or tired?

When I'm happy, I'm usually more chatting. When I'm upset, I'm more short and curt because I don't want to talk to anyone. Tired, I'm more likely to ramble or unable to focus on one thing. (So online I'll probably go from chatting to watching something and completely forget I was having a conversation with someone. 😅 Different from avoidance, which I do for almost anything.) Annoyed.... I probably look like I want to talk just so I can agro out for a while, where I just want to raise my voice and talk hatefully about the thing that upset me. That's more extreme annoyance. If I'm just slightly annoyed, I'll probably do whatever I can to deflect whatever's annoying me, either by trying to include someone else into the conversation and then changing the subject and then switching to the other person. (This happens at work when an annoying coworker talks about annoying things. Very easy to "mistakenly" include someone else into the conversation as we're always walking around doing something.)

Thanks for the ask, Hailey.

Ask thing.

Woken up in the middle of the night with the most unwell dream?? First one was my partner decided to play minecraft again and asked me to play with him, so i agreed but he wanted to play with a texture pack?? So we restarted and realised i respawned halfway across the world, but whatever we can just find each other again. I make my guy go to bed and he wouldnt go to bed?? And i asked him whats up and then i just see the text chat snitch him out; he was too busy changing all the wolves into borzois.

Second dream was a continuation ?? I think?? Where later on we stopped and were going to bed irl and i fell asleep first. Woke up to him entering the bed and i saw him fucking pixelate and glitch out??? Like in front of me disappearing and turning into smthn familiar but dream me couldnt tell what it was?? I thiught he was turning into a stardew valley sprite but actually he turned into a minecraft player skin. And then he just fuckin vanished like he disappeared.

#text #i gotta say the worst part was my garfield jotaro skin is what he was animorphing into #like whybMY skin. why this one. sTOP IT #kinda gagging laughijg honestly #king/mango ass nightmare #that melatonin got hands

Dream last night 9/15/2024

It started off for some reason with me and a coworker trying to go to a restaurant, and then me trying to invite another friend, only to find out the restaurant was in a video game and not in dream-irl. Also me and my friend were in my aunt's house instead of my childhood house (which is the usual) or current house.

Anyway, that part of the dream didn't last long, or it transitioned from me laying in bed, because next thing I know I am playing a game.

The game started out in a kind of weird camera angle that you would get from like old Silent Hill games, and honestly the game gave off random 2000s PS2 vibes.

So you start off in this decrepit room with human skin bags hanging off of meat hooks, and you are a bunch of rusted wires that is made into the shape of a human/mannequin. You jump into the human skin bag and fall into a hole it was hanging from and that is what starts the game.

That was like the menu screen I think because next time I see my character I was a fully dressed and realized human who was captured/woke up in this place.

Now what I had to do was try and escape, because I was in a finished basement with someone who was asleep. I didn't know that at first and just went speedrunner mode to try and get to the death screen ending quickly, or to just get to the next level.

But I got stopped when going up the basement stairs and couldn't get out of the locked door, and then I was grabbed by the person I woke up and dragged to a place to be a toy that lives and even when I tried to kill myself on a spike from a tree, I was stopped by the person that I woke up.

I don't know how I ended up dying, so I think I reset the game because there was literally no way for me to progress, escape, kill myself, or do anything that would move the game forward.

So one jump into a meat suit again and I am starting over. This time I am actually taking my time trying to get to the end. I am slowly opening doors, trying to trick animals and rats that are running around or hiding inside the walls, picking up items and big things I could use to hide from under tables.

The one thing I didn't do was look into mirrors and stuff because later I find out that is a necessary thing to learn lore which I need to know otherwise I can't fully progress.

Anyway, I kept having to restart (legitimately) because I would make a mistake, set off an alarm, and not know how to dodge waking up the person so I would die and have to restart because there was no save in this game.

It was literally like that extreme no-hit challenge Soulsbourne run where you have to reset anytime you mess up, except this is for death, not just a hit, and the no-save feature is built into the game instead of something you self impose.

And this is apparently a LONG game. This first level where I am trying to leave a basement is just level one.

So yea, I somehow make it through the basement, I don't know how, it just happened off screen. And now I am trying to get through the next levels.

I don't remember some of the inbetween levels, but once I got to a new like boss level (there was at least 4 to my knowledge, with the basement guy being one of them), it apparently was a level with all 4 of them in the level.

It was trying to get colors to be made, and there were either other players or player NPCs that were in the game because they were also trying to escape without being noticed, except for one of them who was a pet to one of the bosses I think.

At one point we are caught but decide to try and run and lose their aggression rather than start fully over. We make it to the top of the level (which was a giant ass ballroom that looked like a chunk removed from minecraft) that had stairs on the outside of the room, and find out that we are somehow on one of a giant ship.

I don't know if our ship looked like a bigger version of the Titanic, or if the ship I was seeing out the window was the one that looked like the Titanic (or both were).

Well it turns out the outside one was being driven by either my dad (dream dad, not irl dad, they looked nothing alike) or by one of my friends' dad. Either way, I tried to get help from the top of the room which had a control panel and radio.

However, the bosses made their way up there and the one that was the buffest and meanest just walked over, grabbed my arms (almost breaking my arms) and hit something one the control panel that would destroy the ship with my dad/friend's dad.

For some reason I knew I needed them to be alive to win, so after I was let go and the bosses were proposing a deal to let us live to be like pets like that one player/NPC, I just ran past them and jumped off of the ledge down to the bottom of the ballroom/empty chunk.

And I was reset back to the beginning, where I tried to just go about casually to see something since the boss that was from my level seemed the most friendly but still dangerous (made me think a lot about Gamzee in his like high/happy state).

I ended up waking up the boss by accident still, but I was playing it off like I was a figment of his imagination and he was dreaming. Which worked and allowed me to walk around freely finally.

However, because I did this, the game took it as a progression, so while in general time barely moved when lurking around trying to get out of the room, now time moved a bit to the point that the other bosses were coming to hang out on this level with my boss.

Obviously I couldn't pretend I was their dreams as well, but was able to live long enough to get to the outside (which now was a fenced in grassy yard, kind of like a college campus).

Apparently all the NPCs/players I saw helping me in the ballroom were now all pets/servants of the bosses in a similar manner I was (so most likely these were NPCs trying to be a guide/help to me).

Well I tried to run for one of the fences to get over it but the guy who almost broke my arm ended up catching me while I tried to climb.

I ended up waking up irl around this time enough that I couldn't let the dream play itself out anymore. I was starting to influence it and forget things more, so that is where the dream ended.

ALSO CONGRATS FOR VAL (I suck at val, so I stay on unrated 🥲) — and for genshin, i haven’t been updated on it for a while, besides that one time my friend had me play with her.

i think hoyo hates me..i logged in one day and it gave me a stellar reunion, and then the next day it was GONE (T^T) now i have to wait a whole month or smth to get stellar reunion again..

but anyways. my break was good! very unproductive but that’s the usual lol. i did start a minecraft world with my friends a while ago though, so that’s been fun :D (we haven’t played roblox since then though.. </3)

glad to catch up with u after a while ( ◠‿◠ ) i hope you’re excited for senior year!!

—hacker

NOO that’s so sad. honestly it might as well happen to me… i’ll open genshin, abandon it, and then open it again the next update and the stellar reunion will have restarted lmfao.

at least you had a nice break tho!! they’re supposed to be refreshing, not necessarily productive, so at least there’s that. let me know how your minecraft world goes tho :0

one of my friends let me join their world recently but they already have like this big ass castle and one of them built an iron farm so i was really just messing around and building a cute lil house 💀

no but 2020-2021 with covid and all that, and having just started work for the first time and generally having a Bad Time. I hadn't watched Minecraft content in years, and hadn't touched the game for longer.

And then I saw a video about something called L'manburg, and a Minecraft presidential candidate? So I looked into it. My first stream was the first L'manburg explosion, the rebellion. I remember swapping between several streams on my phone. Some names I recognised (Technoblade, Philza), many I didn't. But the experience was electric. And I didn't think about what was going on outside the little block world, I was immersed, happy even.

From then on, knowing that I could watch streams in the evening where people my age and younger were messing around on minecraft for a bit and having fun did help.

And waking up the next morning and Ranboo or someone had done a 5-6 hour stream which I could watch while I was working from home almost felt like company, it made the day easier.

And the storytelling through play felt like I was a young teen again finding out about the Jurassic Craft series (does anyone even know what that was anymore? Cause that was my JAM back in the day) and other Minecraft roleplay series. The people were new, the setting different, the plot beats shifted, but the drama and the friendships and the tragedy of it all felt familiar. Like I was coming home.

Moreso, I didn't join the community really because I wasn't on twitter or tumblr or anything like that much, but I saw all the videos, animations, music, the outpouring of love from everyone who felt the same as me. And so even when streams werent live, I felt like I had so much to see. It was wonderful, still is to an extent as I've very much seen on the dash this morning since Jack's epilogue stream.

I drifted away from dsmp content in 2022 at some point, I don't remember when. I changed jobs, went out more, I guess my interests changed. But I never forgot that feeling of being wrapped in a blanket, watching SAD-ists Technoblade animation for the first time, or seeing the decimation of New L'manburg live, or any of the exile streams in that winter when everything was ramping up story-wise, or Ranboo's lore streams with the quiet acting and well-timed music, or the very first Tales from the SMP, or waiting patiently for Quackitys' cinematic lore streams to start (which to this day i still rewatch regularly, they're amazing and hold up very well on their own imo)

The best gift of all that I got from dsmp was possibly what came after. I got back into Minecraft, both as a game and as a medium for story. I regained a genuine love for the medium, which brought me back to watching Hermitcraft, and then to QSMP, and the Life series, and many more. Which led me to restart my tumblr account, and then here, with my small band of mutuals and the strong sense of community. It's like I found a missing piece, and it started with dsmp.

Was the dsmp perfect? No. Far from it. But did I enjoy it? Absolutely. And I will always carry forward that it was just what I needed to see, at just the right time.

So yeah. Am I happy now? Getting there. Thanks to the dsmp.

help i can feel myself falling into the dsmp void again

#dsmp #thank you dsmp #rambly post but I never got to say goodbye to this damn server when it ended so I'm saying it now

my favorite thing in video games (and by that i mean the last of us and minecraft) is when they let you have a bow and arrows when theres like more efficient weapons. idk why its just fun to shoot pointy sticks at bitches

#in tlou i'd restart the game if i even missed once or alerted the bad guys #i mean the level not the game #i liked stealth killing all of them because im bad at shooty #dragon age doesnt count because if its the weapon u picked then its just ur main weapon #sometimes i think about replaying the last of us and then i remember the big scary dudes....#tlou and l4d are the only shooty games ive played. technically #i played re4 for a hot second as a child but it was taken away from me #because my uncle knew i was a big baby #honestly if i tried again now i couldnt play it. the breathy bitches... sjdfguhuuegk #i get scared playing minecraft so like. regular games? oogh

Scout, Engie & Medic with S/O that draws? 🥺 and they find papers where they have sketches of merc’s head with some studies on their nose, eyes, hair etc. (bonus for Medic & Engie -> glasses; Scout -> his hat with mic)

Thx!

Woohoo! First request! hope it ain't bad ≧ ﹏ ≦

Bold = The Mercs

Italic = Merc's S/O

Scout, Engie & Medic with S/O that draws and finding papers where they have sketches of merc's head, with studies of their nose, eyes, hair, ear, head shape, and mouth.

[Part 1/2]

Scout :

You and Scoot were playing Minecraft together in his room, Scooter boy got thirsty, "Hey, babe!" "Yeah?" "Can you get a Bonk for me?" "Sure!" as you put down your controller and got up from the beanbag to get a Bonk from the mini-fridge he has, "It's empty!" "Holy crap! Hold on! gotta kill this dumbass creeper before it blows up our house!" "I'm going to get some more in the kitchen, is that okay?" "Alright, thanks babe!", he paused the game to got up to check the mini fridge thinking that you're planning to prank him again (You both are pranksters to the team), he found a stack of paper with a sticky note written 'Studies' on it, he got curious. He picks up one piece of paper and saw drawings of his eye and more drawn eyes have scribbled on them meaning it's the failed ones, he doesn't know whose eye is yet. He picked up another piece of paper that is under the piece of paper just he picked up, he saw drawings of his ear and more drawn ears scribbled on them, "Who the frickin' hell did these masterpieces?!" not knowing whose eye and ear are yet. He picked up another piece of paper at random and saw many drawings of his nose, a little amount has scribbled on them, still doesn't know whose body parts are yet. He picked up another piece of paper at random again, he saw drawings of his hair, no scribbles, "Whoa, is this me?". He picked up another piece of paper under the piece of paper he just picked up, it had drawings of his mouth, and he knew is his because it has a little gap between its front teeth like he has, "This is me!", and he saw the last piece of paper facing down, he flipped it over as he picked it up, it was a drawing of his face that's pretty detailed, "Damn! I look frickin' awesome!". He just realized you took quite a long time to get Bonks, he quickly stacked the papers back in the incorrect order and quickly went back to his beanbag to make you think that nothing ever happened, "I'm back, I got the Bonk.... What were you doing?” “Oh, just waiting for you while playin’.” “Don’t ever pull up another prank on me.” “Alright, alright.”, you sat down on your beanbag “Hey toots.” “Hm?” as you turned your head to him, [Pecks on S/O’s cheek*], “Haha, gotcha!”, you went tomato mode, “I just told you to not pull up a prank on me. Hmph.” [Pecks on Scout’s cheek*], he paused, “Something wrong?” then you giggled cheekily, his cheeks turned red, “C-C’mon, let’s just go to the nether.” ”Make sure to not sleep in it.” “What will happen if I sleep in it then?” “You’ll see.... wait a sec, you seem kinda iffy. What were you really doing when I was away?”, he paused the game, “You see that stack of paper? Is it yours?” “Yes, yes it mine. Wassup with it?”, he scratched the back of his neck and trying not to make eye contact, “I-I went trough it while you were away, sorry for not asking permission, babe.” “It’s okay.” “It was a very impressive drawin’ ya did there, guess who’s goin’ to deserve somethin.” “Who?” [Kisses S/O’s forehead*] “You silly!”, your brain is trying to restart while your face just became a cherry, “S-So, you think it’s c-cool?” “Yep.” :) :D.

Engineer :

You and Engie were in Engie's Workshop together, you were helping him around making a new invention, "Hey, Sugar-cube, can you grab me the box of bolts on that shelf," as he points at the shelf, "bring it here please." "No probs.", you picked up the box that had a been labeled 'Bolts' on it and put it on a table right next to Engie, "Thank you, Sunshine." as he gave you a soft smile, Pyro came in and went to tap Engie on the shoulder, "Hello, Pyro Bud!" "(Pyro) Mmph mph mph mph-mmph-mph mphhmph." "You wanna play hide and seek outside", Pyro then nodded, "Bud, I'm busy right now, we could play next time." "(Pyro) Mmmmpphhhh." (Translate : Aaaaaawwhhhh.) "How about you play with me?" "(Pyro) MMPHH!" (Translate : YEESS!), he took your hand and rushed out of Engie's Workshop, (Awh, look at those two Sugar-cubes.), he was going to grab a couple of bolts for his new invention, he noticed a folded peace of paper next to the box, (What is the Sam Hill is this?), it has a note written on it, it said 'S/O Only, DON'T OPEN!!!', he got curious, (S/O wouldn't mind, I guess....) as he unfolded the piece of paper, what he saw surprised him, what he saw was his face drawn without his hardhat and goggles the left half of the paper the other half has his hardhat and goggles, (Awh, how nice of Sugar-cube.), he saw a little note on the right bottom corner of the paper, it said 'Stud-Man ♡' with a little heart, he froze in place with his heart beating quickly and face becoming a red cherry, "Darn.", he folded just like before and put it back in it's place, he continued making his new invention while thinking about it for a couple of hours. "Hey, Stud-boy, I'm back.", he was lying down on a L-couch in his workshop with his hardhat over his eyes, "Engie?", you went next to him and took off his hardhat over his eyes, he was fast asleep, (He must be tired.) as you sat next to him, you kissed his forehead, "Take some good rest, Stud-Man.".

Woo! sorry for the wait, gotta take my cat a bath and got about 7 bruises, there is going to be a part two for Dr. Meem.

I hope you enjoyed! o( ￣▽￣)ｄ

sorry for the wait (´。＿。｀)

invisible string | dreamwastaken

(requested plot by red string of fate soulmate au, dream is still a streamer, reader has commitment issues, dream just wants someone to love, chat is the best wingman, sapnap and george try but they suck, reader is timid but dream makes them feel brave, taylor swift references, this is not very deep or poetic at all, i don’t like typing y/n so after this i’m going to move to ___)

listen to: invisible string by taylor swift

In kindergarten, red strings were simply a crafting tool, and teachers never mentioned how much pain they would eventually bring.

Because when they appear, from a child’s eighteenth birthday and beyond, they tighten like a godforsaken high school ring that came in one size too small. Like the universe is a child tugging their mother towards the ice cream truck, you’re pulled around central Florida, passes faces you can’t memorize and voices too garbled to hear.

The string knows where you need to go, and when.

And you’re at the park, feeding ducks and trying to ignore that incessant pull that tugs at your pinky, when you hear it.

It’s a voice you know only because it’s a voice that’s been in your house before. At least, through your brother’s tablet screen. Some gamer online — a streamer, with a distinct wheezing laugh that you’d recognize anywhere.

And you do. Behind you.

You risk a small peak, and your heart drops into your chest. He’s tall. Too tall to not intimidate you. And his sandy hair is wavy, curling at the collar of his sweatshirt, falling perfectly into place when he runs his hands through it. When he does, you see it, the red string.

Which means he could see it too. All he’d have to do is turn around.

But you’re not ready. You haven’t been, not since you watched your cousin get rejected on her eighteenth birthday. Since you watched a string of fate get clipped in front of you, like the three fates had finally had enough of your cousin’s happiness.

It was enough to make you curl into yourself, and reject the natural pull set before you. So you run, and you try not to think of what would’ve happened if he saw you before you saw him. You try not to feel the clippers, but the blade feels tangible against your skin.

You don’t stop running until you arrive home.

“Hey chat, just wanted to do a few practice runs and catch up with you guys,” Dream mumbles into the mic, already restarting his game after deciding he didn’t like his seed. The donos begin rolling in, even before Sapnap and George have unmuted, so Dream flits his eyes to the display screen, subconsciously reading along with the text-to-speech voice, “Dream, what if we shared a string of fate? Ahaha, just kidding... unless... love you bestie.”

Dream chuckles, “Actually chat, I felt a tug today! Isn’t that weird? I was actually reading up on what that could mean, and it seems like either my soulmate is in a lot of distress, or they were in my vicinity. I’m hoping, for their sake, it’s the second one. How would you even comfort a soulmate if all you can do is tug on a stupid string?”

“Simp!” George finally unmutes just to be annoying, and Dream knows soulmates are a touchy spot for him, considering he wasn’t given a string on his eighteenth. Which is strange, but not impossible. Of course, chat doesn’t know this, because it would give them more hope of becoming George’s metaphorical soulmate, but it certainly makes for awkward conversations once Dream and Sapnap get into their own soulmate bonds.

“I’m not simping, George!” Dream feels a bit defensive, because he’s genuinely just curious. He has no interest in meeting his soulmate right now. At least, that’s what he tells himself. He has his streams, and his friends, and chat. He’s fine.

[abbywastaken donated $10: dream why don’t you go back to where you felt the pull and see if you feel it again? that’s how i found my soulmate. okay luv u bye.]

“Thanks, Abby. Love you, too. Um, honestly I was in a pretty public place, so I don’t know if they would even come back anytime soon. Also, this is Orlando, right? Tourists are everywhere.”

Sapnap snorts, and Dream thinks it’s funny, since he’s in the other room. “Just say you’re a coward and go.”

“I’m not!” Dream says. “It was just a small pull, okay? It wasn’t even a big deal.”

He feels another lurch when he says that, but this one is in his chest. It taps against his heart, a quick reminder that it beats for someone else, and he needs to watch his words. “Okay, it was a big deal. Sort of. I’ll go tomorrow, okay chat?”

Chat is spamming all types of messages, from encouragement to jealousy. Dream manages to read off a few donos and create his first nether portal of the stream. He answers as they appear, eyes scanning for a fortress. “No, I didn’t see them… I’m not telling you guys where I was, that’s weird… I’m wearing a sweatshirt and jeans… Hi, Sarah and Patrick…”

He trails off as the donos do, and works at getting blaze rods. George is talking about a riddle he just learned, and he’s trying to trick Sapnap into saying something stupid.

Lost in his own thoughts, he finally closes the stream after a hasty goodbye. “What if I missed my chance?” He asks the two boys on the other line.

“It’s a string of fate, Dream,” George says. “You didn’t miss your chance.”

“Maybe they saw how ugly you are and ran away,” Sapnap says, completely joking, but the thought lingers in Dream’s head.

Did they feel the tug, and run away?

You pour cereal for yourself, and when your brother shuffles into the kitchen, you make him a bowl as well.

He’s eleven, and as little brothers go, he’s pretty chill. Aside from the inappropriate jokes and hogging the bathroom when you have to get ready for work, you like hanging around with him.

You pass him his bowl, and he grins. “I’m gonna watch Dream’s new video on the TV, since mom’s not home.”

You furrow your brows. Dream must be one of the dozens of streamers he likes. Maybe one of his friends will be in chat with him, and you will be able to connect a voice to a face. “Can I sit with you?”

He gives you an odd look, and it’s true, you don’t ask to watch videos with him often. “I guess.”

You eat a spoonful of cereal and settle into the couch while he gets everything ready. He clicks on a lime green icon of a little white blob man, and when the first video appears, you’re taken aback by the voice.

That’s the voice you heard. It’s this one, out of all the random men yelling about a block game. It’s Dream.

“Why doesn’t he show his face?” You manage, wanting information about the person that shares your string.

“What?”

“Like, he’s handsome, right? Why doesn’t he have a facecam?”

Your brother snorts. “Handsome? He’s never shown his face, Y/n. Don’t you know who Dream is? He’s like, super famous.”

“Oh.” You think of his golden hair, as sunny and soft as the glow around his entire being. His voice right now, joyous as he gets chased by his friends. “I mean, I don’t keep up with streamers.”

He begins to explain Dream and his friends, along with lore in their role play server, and it’s all interesting enough that you sit and listen, holding on to the little bits of information you can collect about your soulmate.

You file these facts in a secluded corner of your brain and try to make a whole person, along with the hair and the laugh and the intense music he plays as he gets hunted by his friends.

By nightfall, you’re following all of his socials and binge-watching his old streams, holding on to the way he speaks to his friends, and the fond way he replies to donos.

[dreamwastaken is live!]

You click on it, bundled underneath your covers as if someone might see you and find out your secret.

“Hi, chat! I know I was just live yesterday, but I cut it too short and wanted to come talk to you guys.”

He uses his avatar to wave at the screen, and it’s kind of an adorable sight.

[gogysimp donated $25: did you go see your soulmate?]

Your heart stops. Does he know? Did he see you? Or even worse, has he already found someone else, and he just hasn’t severed the tie?

“No!” Dream’s laugh pulls you out of your worries. “I was busy with meetings today, actually. And I was too nervous. Sapnap also refused to come with me, so I’m just going to go another day.”

So he didn’t see you. He just knows you were there.

You click the donate tab before you can stop yourself.

[y/n donated $1: would you reject your soulmate if you didn’t like them?]

Dream mumbles the question, and you try to ignore the way your heart deflates when he skips saying your name. “I don’t think so,” he states plainly. “I mean, logically, a soulmate would be your other half, so I wouldn’t not like them. But I know some people just don’t click, or there are other issues. So, I don’t know. I guess the only thing I can say is that I don’t want to reject them. And I hope they don’t reject me. I mean, imagine finding out your soulmate is a Minecraft Youtuber. That would be pretty weird…”

You giggle to yourself as he trails off and answers another donation. So he’s against rejection. Okay. Maybe you have a chance.

[kyra donated $60: i’m your soulmate.]

“Meet me where you felt the tug, then,” Dream says sassily. “Chat, don’t be weird, okay? I can’t control who my soulmate is, and I don’t want you guys to exclude them if they become a pat of my life.”

Oh, you think. So his chat is vocal about their opinions, and apparently they mean a lot to him. You shiver despite your warm position and imagine how annoying you might seem to his loyal viewers: someone who only knew about him because of their brother.

Insecurity pushes against your chest, so you close the stream and push your phone away, hoping to forget this ever happened, that maybe you won’t have to deal with the inevitable if you don’t think about it.

Yogurt Barn isn’t the first place on your list of dream jobs, but it has decent pay and helps you pay off student loans, so you appreciate it nonetheless. The teal sweatshirt they gave you as a uniform keeps you warm as you scoop the frozen treats.

Your coworker, a girl named Madison, is busy manning the counter, so you check each flavor and refill the ones running empty.

“Can I ask you a question?” Madison met her soulmate, Anna, only days after she got her string. It was a textbook romance, two people meant for each other, no doubt in anyone’s mind. She might be able to help you now. That is, if you can even admit to who your soulmate is.

“What’s up?”

“I felt the tug,” you say, avoiding her eyes in favor of restacking the medium cups.

“No way!” Madison is perky in a way that makes you want to be included. You like this about her. “Did you see them? Did you talk to them?”

“He—” You want to say that the part of him you saw was perfect, enough to keep you up when you should be dreaming. But reality is nothing if not disappointing. “I ran.”

“Y/n…” Madison gives you a stern look — like a mother finding out their child didn’t defrost the chicken in time. “Why would you run?”

“I don’t want to be rejected.” The magenta swirls painted onto the walls are a stark change to the clay sidewalks of the strip mall. “And before you say he wouldn’t… It’s happened to my cousin. It’s possible.”

Madison frowns. “But that can’t be the only reason, right? I mean, we all know someone who has been rejected. It’s usually not the end of the world for them.”

“He’s a famous streamer,” you blurt, and you’re thankful the shop is as empty as it is. Just the words themselves sound fake.

Madison snorts. “Like, gaming? That’s what’s holding you back? He’s a gamer?”

“I don’t care that he’s a gamer!” You hiss. “I care that he has a loyal fanbase who more than likely all want to be his soulmate!”

“You can’t say that for certain,” Madison says. “I mean, everyone knows about the soulmate system. If you watch someone and don’t feel the pull, you know they aren’t your soulmate, right? So why wouldn’t they accept you?”

“I don’t know,” you say. “I’m just scared. I mean, he’s got this huge following and everything and I’m just me. I work in a yogurt shop for goodness’ sake.”

You head into the back to grab more cups, and the bell rings, signaling a new customer.

“Welcome to Yogurt Barn, what can I get for you?” Madison’s customer service voice pricks your ears.

You sift through the boxes to find the smaller cups and listen to the customer’s order. “Can I have a strawberry cone?”

Your string pulls, that same familiar voice filling your head, not on the screen but once again just a few feet away. He’s infiltrating your life, so close you could reach out and touch him, but it’s such a terrifying thought that you set down the cups.

You tear off your apron, and run into the break room to grab a water and calm yourself down.

It’s ten minutes before Madison comes back to find you. “Hey, are you okay? You disappeared.”

You take a deep breath and stare at the poster on the wall. It’s brightly colored, with a walking yogurt cup waving and reminding employees to wash their hands before scooping. “That was him. The guy— the pull— Dream— I can’t— Does he know? Is he following me?”

“It’s okay,” Madison runs her hand down your back. “It’s okay. He isn’t following you. When the pull starts it tends to draw the couple together until they meet. He probably doesn’t know it’s you.”

You nod and take your breaths in gulps. “Okay. Yeah, you’re right. You’re right.”

“Why don’t you go home early, okay?”

Dream is live again.

Fresh out of the shower, you pull a t-shirt over your body and burrow into your blankets. Earbuds in, you try to focus on the sound of his voice, ignoring every ounce of anxiety that’s been riddling your mind.

“Hi, chat. I’m gonna practice speed runs again. I think George is joining soon.”

You open the chat and scroll through the emotes, clicking the ones you like and sending them, just to calm yourself down.

[kylo donated $5: did you find your soulmate?]

Dream laughs. The sound makes your chest tighten with longing. Your fingers ache. “Actually, I went to the place I felt the pull again. I dunno what I was expecting, but they didn’t show up. But after that, I was running some errands and I felt it, chat! I felt the pull again.”

He trails off while his character starts to look for a lava pool. “I feel discouraged but I don’t want to like, chase them, you know? I don’t want to scare them off.”

You click the donation tab again.

[y/n donated $1: maybe your soulmate heard your voice and got scared of you because they watch your videos.]

It’s not the total truth, but it might help him sleep better. You don’t want him to feel discouraged, but you can’t bring yourself to follow the pull.

“That could be a possibility…” Dream crafts a portal and sends his character through. “But I wish I could talk to them. I wish I could tell them that it’s okay. Like, we don’t have to rush into anything.”

[y/n donated $1: They probably wish they could talk to you too]

“Thanks, Y/n.” He sucks in a breath as soon as he says your name. The Minecraft pause screen appears and the sound of a discord call can be heard.

Your heart pounds in your chest. Something about him saying your name just solidified everything. Your arms feel hot and cold all at once, like you’ve just been thrown in a frozen lake. He has to be feeling it too.

“Chat, I gotta go, okay? I’ll try to stream again soon.”

“Hello?” A sleepy voice comes in through Dream’s earbuds.

“George! Their name is Y/n!” Dream is so excited, his voice raising a few octaves as he talks. “Someone donated with that name and I felt like, super weird. I didn’t feel it until I said the name out loud.”

“That’s crazy,” George says, monotone but supportive. “Do you think the dono is actually them?”

“I don’t know,” Dream scrolls through their past donos and quickly screenshots each one. “I mean, they definitely could be.”

He shares the pictures in their group chat.

George hums. “It sounds like they’re trying to tell you how they feel without admitting that it’s them. Where did you say you felt a pull?”

“At the park, and at the yogurt shop down the road.”

“So go there again. Maybe all they need is a little courage. If you feel the pull this time, you should follow it.”

Dream thinks about it for a moment before finally agreeing. He changes the subject to their next jackbox stream, and George is now happily talking about how they’re going to team up against Sapnap.

He goes into Sapnap’s room that night. He sits on his desk chair while Sapnap sits cross legged on his bed, scrolling through his phone. “Do you wanna get frozen yogurt tomorrow? My treat.”

“Hell yeah!”

The new strawberry-lemonade custard is a hit. Not only are the colors aesthetically pleasing for the teenagers who want a nice snapchat story, but there was a promotional coupon in the mail that has people lining up to the door.

“It’s not even that good,” you tell Madison while the two of you are on break. You’re both using a sample spoon to try out the new summer flavors, and in your opinion, strawberry-lemonade isn’t even the best one. “Blood orange is better.”

Madison wrinkles her nose. “No, blue raspberry is best.”

“It’s sour, though,” you say.

“Guys! Break’s over and you’ve got a line!” Your manager stares disapprovingly at the cups of custard the both of you are indulging in.

“We’re coming.” You toss the cup into the trash and walk out, scratching at the sudden itch on your pinky finger.

Pulling on your gloves, you grab a scoop and address the first customer, “Welcome to Yogurt Barn.”

“Hi!”

You still like you’ve been caught stealing on camera. You look up, hand clutching the scoop so tightly you can feel the cold steel through your gloves.

It’s Dream.

It’s him. He’s tall, and his hair is a sunshine blond, dark at the roots and curling beneath his ears. And his freckles… little spots all across his cheeks so endearing that you get a little distracted staring at them.

Then he’s talking, and you have to focus on his jade-green eyes, not his lips, which are a warm pink. “It’s you.”

You blink. Fear strikes your spine and you drop the scoop. “I gotta go.”

“Wait!” Dream calls, just as Madison shouts your name.

You exit out the back door again. Your heart is pounding against your chest, ribs expanding, and all you can hear is the sound of your name coming out of his lips, just last night through a screen.

“Y/n?” Only it’s in front of you, a few feet away, and he’s searching your eyes for any reassurance that you won’t run away again. That you won’t reject him. “That’s your name right?” He keeps talking, a nervous smile flitting across his face. “The donos? That was you?”

You can see the string now, red and blaring, tightening with each step Dream takes. It’s signing off your fate, for better or for worse, and you can’t fathom why he’s trying so hard, why he cares so much.

It’s hot in Florida but you feel cold, chilled to the bone. You straighten up. You figure you owe it to him to look up in the eye.

He leaves you breathless, eyes shining in the sun. “It was me,” you say. “You’re Dream.”

“Clay, actually,” he says. His smile widens, and it’s magnificently bold. He’s triumphant, just from your reply, and that alone gives you the slightest bit of hope.

“Clay,” you say. “I’m— I’m not— I don’t know if I’m ready.”

“You don’t have to be.” Clay is quick to reply, hands open and palms up. It’s a complete surrender — putting it all in your hands. “We don’t have to announce it. We don’t have to be anything at all, if you need time. But I would like to be your friend. If— If that’s okay.”

But you want to be close to him. The draw of your strings pulling each other closer and closer makes you want to wrap your arms around him. If he hasn’t rejected you, maybe you can do this. “I– I want to be more than friends, but I’m terrified of you rejecting me. I’m afraid of the string getting cut.”

Clay set his brows, “I won’t let that happen. We’re connected. Fate, ya know?”

“Yeah,” you breathe, and it’s a sigh of relief. “Okay. Maybe I’ll give you my number?”

“I’ll give you mine!” Clay is animated, holding out his hand for your phone. “That way you can text me when you’re ready.”

The red string shines like gold in the Florida sun, and when your fingertips brush, it burns with a satisfying warmth.
