the hell is mystreet season 6??
(warning, long post ahead)
ok so before i start this
1) ive never posted shiiiit on tumblr before so watch me suffer, im just here to talk about stuff that my friends who dont know anything about aphmau have to listen to me rant about for hours on end
2) i havent seen mystreet in like years (except season 3, i watch that frequently since im laurance and shadow knight deprived) so please bear with me because i might be completely wrong on this lol. itâs just like, pointing out things i remember
3) im sure someones already talked about this but who cares
4) im gonna do this stupid thing where i just explain myself a bit at first, if you dont want to read that just skip to the part where you see âthe actual thingy:â in bold and italicsÂ
5) mild disclaimer; i am completely aware that jessica is not a professional writer. i know that she did her best to appeal to her fans, and honestly, respect for that. while this post will come off as aggressive and probably look like hate, thatâs not my intention in the slightest. itâs just... intense criticism. im sure yâall probably already know that, but yeah, just stating that anyways. i do believe that jess is doing her best, and in no way do i want to dismiss any hard work sheâs done. that being said; prepare for a very strongly opinionated post.
haha watch there be 10000+ typos in this making me look like a complete dumbass
ok here we goÂ
one of the main reasons i stopped watching aphmau back in 2017 was the mess that was season 4. like, in the first few episodes of the emerald secret, i thought âwoah!! this is kinda cool, im a sucker for mystery!â because of course i was, it was something new and something exciting. the only problem i had with it at the time was kim, but thatâs just because i always found her annoying and out of place. i just didnât understand why garroth dragged her along and honestly i still donât to this day BUT, moving on.
anyways, as the season progressed, 13 year old me was of course just â:0!!â the entire time--that is, up until the reveal of the main villain. i remember watching the episode, seeing the reveal of ein, and then stopping. like, just for a quick break, but i was still just overwhelmingly disappointed. like, and this was the time when pdh was airing and ein just got made alpha (i think?) and i had really really liked eins character in pdh. either way, that really sucked and actually opened my eyes to a lot of things.
one of the main things beinâ the fact that this was supposed to be a slice of life kinda series that decided to take a turn to a more edgy kinda approach. which, i guess i regularly wouldnt mind? but seeing as mcd was kinda bein neglected at the time it just didnt sit right with me. BUT WHATEVER, point is i stopped watching mystreet all together at the end of season 4.
like, a whole year later my brother tells me that shitâs getting intense in season 5 + 6 of mystreet, and my brilliant self decided to give it a shot--but i refused to watch all of season 5, so i only stepped in when ein made an appearance. so whenever that was, thatâs where i picked up because i didnt care enough to seeÂ
and yâknow--i honestly didnât hate it at first. in fact, i found it oddly cool. it wasnât enough to get me into aphmau again, but it was enough to where i was intrigued. i dont know why, but i never watched the finale, so i didnt see the ending until just a few weeks ago--but back then, i thought it was neat. looking back on it however... im just so confused.Â
side note: only got back into aphmau this time around because of mcd. mainly because like, i adore the first season and the first half of the second season. and being nearly 18 now, im a lot more appreciative of plot and well-written characters n junk.Â
the actual thingy:
ok back on track. imma stop spilling out my story of how i got back into aphmau, and lets just skip to what rewatching mcd made me realize of season 6â˛s plot and shit:
-emmalyn. how the fuck does ghost even remotely exist? if sheâs emmalyn as claimed, then why have we already seen emmalyn in the mystreet universe alive? look i get that creators can do whatever they want with their stories but at the same time please provide some sort of explanation good god. and maybe they did and i just havent seen it, so if there is one--let me know. but until that day imma just sit here confused as fuck
-ok so imma just be real, the whole âultimaâ thing is just... not great. in my opinion, anyways. like... i saw someone mention this in another post, but if this ultima stuff was like, a really big deal, why isnt it mentioned in mcd? though i suppose since its a curse of sorts, it could be later on past the time period in which mcd takes place--but even then, how did it manage to make its way into aaronâs family bloodline?Â
-WHY IS EVERYONE AT STARLIGHT ITS JUST SO CONVINIENT like what happened to this place being the most expensive shit on the planet or whatever, and how the gang happens to run into like, the werewolf trio and blaze and kai and guy and nate all of these people like god damn life doesnt WORK LIKE THATÂ
-im sorry but turning people into relics? thats... thats the best you could come up with? plus, like, how does that even work? in mcd itâs established that relics are separate entitles that choose their wielder, based on a âpersonalâ connection (being a descendent of a previous wielder) or if theyâre a good match personality and (i think?) moral wise. so the whole turning-people-into-relics doesnt make much sense to be honest.Â
-irene really over here using her god powers to only keep her friends alive like god damn not a great god if you ask meÂ
-can i talk about how incredibly predictable aphmaus death was? like i just kinda sat there waiting for it to happen and when it did i literally went âhaha! wonder when sheâll be revivedâ because god forbid we actually kill off charactersÂ
-when aphmau + demon warlock fought in the irene dimension there was no passage of time whatsoever in the real world whiiiiiiiiich really bothers me because they fought in there for at least a few minutes
-speaking of aphmau and the demon warlocks fight does it bother anyone else that it had to be aaron who took over the fight?? like we get it hes the big protector blah blah blah but god damn it wouldve been cooler if aphmau had fought this battle as her. aaron fighting this battle was so underwhelming
-...love. like, thats the only thing thats needed to break out of a forever potion? love? LIKE YEAH, GOOD GUYS GOTTA WIN SOMEHOW, but its just so cliche and overdoneeee
-oh yeah and also when travis went bonkers and became the demon warlock or whatever, whyâd he only take over katelyn and garroth?? like, zane had been influenced by the potions in the past as well? DONT GET ME WRONG--i do love some good brother edge, but uh, the demon warlock was just bein kinda a dumbass by not possessing zane too just sayinâ
-can aaron please go to fucking jail for mass murder now like holy shit, he just got sent home on a fuckin boat. also why did blaze forgive him for killing him thats not even remotely realistic. then again, nothing in mystreet has ever been realistic when it comes to characters and motives and personalities, (cough katelyn being actually abusive and travis being an actual pervert) but yknow whatever
-katelyn and kawaii chan literally added nothing to the plot whatsoever. like lets be real, katelyn lost her personality the moment season 5 started and kawaii chan just kinda sits there :I
-ok im sorry this was bound to come up but cmon guys imagine laurances potential if he was in season 6 like god damn this is beyond maddening. AND YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A REALLY REALLY COOL PARRALLEL?? IF IT WAS LAURANCE WHO SNAPPED GARROTH OUT OF HIS MIND CONTROL THING, because it would mimic lauranceâs speech to get garroth to snap out of his rage in season 1, episode 100 of minecraft diaries. like how fuckin rad would that have been? missed opportunityÂ
-also?? why does kim/ghost know magicks?? like, if i remember correctly, emmalyn is a scholar--not someone who knew magicks. i mean, i guess research? study?? but its been established that knowing how magicks works =/= being able to use magicks. i dunno, just doesnt seem right i guess. maybe its explained, i wouldnt know (yes i know that makes me look like a dick leave me alone)
-melissa should have stayed dead. LIKE, NO, ITS NOT AS SIMPLE AS âhaha it takes more than a few bullets to kill meâ??? look ive got nothing wrong with melissa (cough lie cough) but yknow it would have just been cool a character... stay dead? for once? its just too fuckin cliche that shes alive god damn
-can i also just say the only good thing that came out of season 6 was travisâ dads sacrifice like damn that made me actually sad
-howww was lucinda turned into a relic. or yknow, anyone else? like im sure they explain it better in the actual show i just dont remember, but its just that easy? turning anyone into a relic? granted, a normal person wouldnt be able to produce a good relic, but idk man. IM JUST SAYING; that the only really powerful relics that aphmau should have been able to wield is the one that aaron + zane produced because shad relic and esmund relic moment. lucinda isnt even like, connected to a divine warrior. ALSO, another point, if its seriously that powerful of a relic getting one from just a magic user like lucinda, why go through the trouble? i mean i guess ofc youd want the âall powerfulâ one that the ultima produces but i mean damn whats the point
-ok this is just going to bother me but in one of the episodes (i think might have been in season 5 actually) where that like, guardian dude was chasing aphmau and zane and at one point they split up and the dude just chuckles at zane diverting paths and goes under his breath âyoure not the important one hereâ, suggesting that aphmau somehow is? first of all, id argue that any roâmeave is significantly more important than aphmau was, especially not knowing much about her other than that shes with aaron. i might be missing some bits an pieces, but if i was that dude id forget about aphmau and go after zaneÂ
-killing off derek for shock factor sucked, and i know the moment was supposed to be really sad because like âoh :( aarons dad is sacrificing himself for his sonâ but lets be real dereks still was a shitty father and i dont think his reasons for doing what he did was very good at all
-less about plot or more like: why the absolute fuck did the gang bring kim along instead of, oh i dont know, a life-long friend? like, laurance or dante maybe?? im sure its explained, i never saw aphmaus year or most of season 5, but god DAMN id hate to be apart of this friend group AND GOD LIKE, imagine reconnecting with an old friend who ends up getting closer to your best friends and taking priority in their lives over you (cough laurance) like god damn lol
-im just going to preface this one with: i dont remember everything thatâs happened, so if im wrong i apologize in advance--but (you actually can correct me if im wrong and please do) didnt like, irene reincarnate her friends in order to give them better lives? I DONT KNOW IF THIS IS TRUE, ITS JUST WHAT I REMEMBER--however, if im correct, then:
a. why the hell would she bring back someone like zane, or gene, or ivy, etc.
b. why the hell do they all have the same exact names? first and last? again, im aware that the whole mystreet+mcd tie wasnât originally supposed to be there, but i dont think that means such a coincidence can be excused? its just a bit much if you ask me.
c. why the hell is the fact that (as much as i literally hate this) aaron is a decedent of shad being ignored? like, youâd think that something like this would be something thats actually important, or something the demon warlock couldve taken advantage of. or are we completely erasing every other connections to divine warriors besides aphmau + irene? because even if irene did reincarnate them or do whatever it is she did, does she even have the power to sever the connections between them and their ancestors? my guess is, no.
d. speaking of irene why on earth was aphmau able to talk to/see irene, theyâre literally the same person are they not? did she like, fuckin reincarnate herself without actually doing it?? BUT--i will give it to them, the demon warlock did refer to aphmau as something along the lines of being âone of the 3 parts of her broken soulâ or something like that. however, my point still remains. also what are the other two did i miss that or is it never explained
now; if irene in fact did not âreincarnateâ her friends then please ignore that little bit right there :)
but yes, those are a few of the problems i have with season 6 off the top of my head. i would go into like, season 4 and 5 more as well, but i honestly didnt feel like it. at some point i might go into other things, like how important laurance could have been to the plot of these later seasons, or HELL, even dante. i might also go into what could have made season 4, 5, and 6 actually good--maybe... a rewrite? perhaps? but im getting too far ahead of myself, so i just leave you with this for now.
and i know that as soon as i post this 15 more things are just going to pop into my head BUT im going to try and not edit this post because why stress myself with that even more
anyways thank you for coming to my tedtalkÂ
#in conclusion i hate it here#lets go back to mystreet bein slice of life pls#anyways tune in next week for 'the hell is pdh??'#aphmau#mcd#mystreet#minecraft diaries#please ignore these next tags im just promoting relentlessly#garroth ro'meave#zane ro'meave#aaron lycan#kawaii chan#kim mystreet#laurance zvhal#pls i have no idea how to tag posts#rant

call me baby
summary: in which chenle gives you the entire world in exchange for some love
genre: crack, fluff and another pinch of angstÂ
theme: ceo!chenle (sugardaddy au but without the sexy shit its just he buys you things in exchange for you loving him ok? ok)Â
word count: 2.8k
authorâs note: HIIIII ITS BEEN A LONG ASS TIME SINCE I WROTE SOMETHING SO HERES THIS also theres no sexy time unless the sexy time u want is going on an endless shopping spree then this fic is for u!! its just another crack idea i had lol and this is just to get rid of writers block or smth despite having this in my drafts for the longest time
â
you know how people say not to chat with random strangers from the internet?
because itâs terrifying and shit??
well you never listenedÂ
here you are on a friday night on your phone
looking for some 40 year olds to troll
on this sugar daddy app you randomly found one day
not like you needed money or whatever
you lived with your brother jaemin whoâs a doctor
so i guess you could say uâre: $$$$
and itâs just that you have nothing to do
whatât the worst that could happen right?
ding!
your phone vibrates in your hand
it looks like youâve matched with your designated sugar daddy
âcongratulations! youâve matched with 6chittaphon9â
you looked at his profile and saw that heâs a 23 year old dancer
not up for it, you swiped left
âgive me the good shit broâ - you tell the phone
you clicked the globe icon on the bottom of the screen
it switched you to a radar where it scans for possible sugardaddies who use the app
a little later your phone dings again
âcongratulations! youâve matched with zhong$â
and when you clicked on his profile,,
you let out a big big gaspÂ
heâs a 18 year old ..
looking for.. sugar babies??
if you were drinking something then you wouldâve spat out that liquid real quick
you swiped to the right and sent this dude a message
âhiâ
ok so chenle right
chenle is the youngest billionaire in the world
bye kylie jenner oof
after his fatherâs passing, his company, zhongs inc. was in his hands
his fatherâs last wish was to have chenle get married at a young age
but chenle obviously didnât like that idea
he wanted to experience a normal teenage life where he parties, drinks, date some random girls or whatever a pesky teenager does
so he found himself downloading a sugarbaby app
also just for the lolz like câmon this is chenle the king of clownery
the c in chenle means clownery wbk
he had the money, the looks, almost anything you need for a man
so he quickly made his account
and not a minute later he already matched with someone named â<y/n3��
he sees that this y/n person already sent him a message
so obviously he replies
âhelloâ
you: asl?
chenle: 17 / m / seoul; u?
you: same except im a female
chenle: well ainât that obvious
on the outside you bursted out laughing
you: ok capt. crunch so would you like telling me your name or is it confidential
chenle: i mean, i guess its kinda confidential but the company wont know anyway but im zhong chenleÂ
you: ????? are u important or sumn
chenle couldnât believe his eyes
chenle: um.. im ZHONG chenle
you: whats so special with your name
chenle was actually quite glad you dont know about his name or his background
chenle: nothing so wyd
it didnât take awhile for you two to get alongÂ
since you two had the same type of humor and age
you: why are you on this app tho if you are âyoung and richâ
chenle: i could ask you the same question
you: its friday my dude and im boredÂ
chenle: well,,,,,,,,,,, idk my friend recommended it to me
you: youâre friends with a bunch of old people?
chenle: nO I MEAN YES?? I MEAN NOÂ
you: ... are u fucking with me
chenle: no iâm not fucking with you, im talking to u :DÂ
in the end chenle asks you if it was okay that heâll send you some money for fun
chenle: yk this app is about sugardaddies looking for sugarbabies right so lets make the most of it and give me your paypal or venmo and ill send you some cash for talking to me <3Â
you: wtf chenle no its fine!!! i had lots of fun talking to you and this app is just a whole ass joke but im glad i met a new friend here but its okay dont send me some money !!!!!
chenle: nooo think of it like iâm treating you out for some dinner so please allow meÂ
you: still ! i wont let you,, till i get to see you so i know youre not some 40 year old i still think you are
chenle: how many times do i have to tell you im really 18 years old ffs but sure, when are you free?
on the inside youre just like: ASJDHJHDUIADHASJKDAHAHD WHAT THE FUCK
you: uhh i have school so iâm always busy hehehe
chenle: then iâll see you in your school, what school do you go to?
this kid doesnt know when to give up
you: hhhhhhh i guess then iâm free tomorrowÂ
chenle: GREAT! IâLL SEE YOU ON HONGDAE hereâs my number boo
and there you have it
your first unofficial meet up with zhong chenle himself
you were too much in thought about meeting him you didnt even notice jaemin standing there with pizza in his hands
âwhat are you staring at sis?â - jaems
âuh nothingâ you snatched the pizza from his hands
fast forward to tomorrow
you were getting nervous to meet chenle
âhey where are you going?â jaemin takes a peek of you in your room
can he stop scaring you like that
âgoing outâ - uÂ
âgoing where?â - jaems
âhongdaeâ
âcuteee do you have a date today?â he wiggles his eyebrows at you
âno-â
âare you going out with that pizza delivery boy?!â jaemin suddenly gushes
âjeno?â you ask him
âyeah that oneâ - jaemin
âno, iâm just gonna go shoppingâ you brush him off
jaemin shrugs and gives you some pocket money to spend
âbe safe and have funâ he closes the door of your room
after safely arriving in hongdae, you sat somewhere thats not that crowded
who knows if this chenle person is famous right
so there you were waiting for him to text you or something
and just like that, your phone rings
it was an unknown number
but you answer anyway
âhello this is chenle, may i ask if you are in gongcha right now?âÂ
you looked around the people whoâs passing by hoping to see someone fancy looking holding their phones
suddenly someone stops right in front of you
âfound youâÂ
with that, chenle hangs up and sits across the table from you
âhi, iâm chenleâ he gives his hand out for you to shake
and man, you were shookt
he looks like an ordinary teenagerÂ
or a hypebeast for this occasionÂ
âo-oh .. h-helloâ you bow
chenle suddenly laughs at your reactionÂ
his laugh is beautifulÂ
âdonât be nervous baby, i mean no harmâ he smiles
his smile that totally made your heart melt
âhow could i not? youâre the youngest billionaire out hereâ you gushed
chenle shushes you after the billionaire part
âsorry about that, itâs just i donât like it when people tell me thatâ he tells you casually
ok humble king
âhave you ordered yet? if not letâs order right now, on meâ he grabs his wallet from his pocket and heads inside gongcha
after taking your orders, you two sat outside again with your drinks
âso y/n.. tell me about yourselfâ chenle takes a sip of his drink
âwell, like i told you last night, iâm a student in college and i live with my brother whoâs a doctor and thatâs about it.. what about you, mr. zhongâ you giggled
âfirst of all, donât call me mr. zhong. you can call me lele instead and i love music and i like to play the piano and sometimes i singâ he shares, showing off his pearly whites
and after some many more conversations with him, he finally asks you an important question
âok last questionâ he laughs, âi know itâs kinda weird but i really like your company and i know we met through a sugar daddy/sugar baby app but would you like.. stay with me..?â he asks cautiously
you stared at him with wide eyes
âiâll pay for everything you want.. just,, stay or keep me company..?â
you kept quiet, just in shock on what just happened
âitâs okay if you donât want to, just forget that i askedâ he laughs awkwardly
âno itâs okay, iâll keep you company but please please donât pay for everything. i can pay for myselfâ you tell him
âwhy not? i got money, i can spoil you with giftsâ he looks at you confused
âif you canât remember, iâve got a brother whoâs a doctor and i guess weâre loaded too you knowâ you roll your eyes at him
âpfft okay then so.. where were weâÂ
and with that you guys carry on your conversationÂ
months has passed and youâve been with chenle through everything
every time something happened in his company, you were there comforting him or just keeping him sane through out everything
and within those months, youâve seen different sides of him as well
like the serious side of himâ when heâs in business meeting and youâre his plus oneÂ
aside from his secretary of course
the funny side of himâ when heâs cracking jokes to literally everyone
sometimes he takes days off in the midst of his own company just to pull pranks on his secretary, renjun
and of course, his vulnerable sideâ when he feels he canât do what his father left him, the family legacy
there were night where you had to stay over at his place just to make him calm down or just to make sure heâs sleeping or eating wellÂ
and tonight was those vulnerable nights of chenle
here you were in his room, on the floor holding his hand as he rants about how his day turned to shitÂ
âitâs just so.. hard you know?â he opens up, âwhen everyone expects you to follow a certain life but iâm not all about that business shit life! i want to sing or fucking play the piano or do some teenager shit not this paper work life!â his voice cracks at the end of his sentence
âah shit iâm crying in front of you againâ he laughs, wiping the tearsÂ
you donât say anything but held his hand tighter
âthanks y/n.. youâre the bestâ he smiles down at you
âanything for you, chenle. thatâs why iâm here for you right? to keep you companyâ you smile back
âcan you.. come up here with meâ chenle motions for you to sit beside him on the bed
you agree and climbed up
chenle sits up awkwardly, staring at you.
âwoah this is the first time i had a girl on my bedâ he giggles
âthen iâm honouredâ you laugh
suddenly your phone vibrates multiple times
you take a look and its your brother looking for you
âwho is it?â chenle asks
âitâs my brother, he said i should go homeâ you slowly push yourself from his comfy bed
âno, itâs late. iâll take you home first thing in the morningâÂ
âi donât want to be a burden to you leleâ you say shyly
âyouâre never a burden to me y/nâ chenle smiles again
that night, you slept in his very arms for the first time
you wake up earlier that him and decided to prepare breakfast for him
you set the eggs and bacon on the table with orange juice
you smiled at your efforts, hoping heâd like it
chenle woke up in distraught since you were no where in sight
he was in his pajama pants and he rushed downstairs to check if you were still there
and thankfully, you were
you were on the dining table, waiting for him with breakfast ready
âgood morningâ he grins, face looking brighter than ever
you smile back at him, âgood morning to you too, sleepyhead. help yourself with some breakfastâ
chenle takes a seat and sips on the orange juice next to him, âdid you make this?â he asks
you nod, âfor youâÂ
you couldâve swore you saw him blush for a moment thereÂ
and with that, you two ate in peace, just enjoying each otherâs company
a few days later
you couldnât make it to chenleâs office since you had classes and it was exam weekÂ
chenle was obviously very lonely that week
even his own secretary checked up on him cause he was awfully quiet ever since you came into his life
âso how are you and y/n huhâ renjun casually asks chenle who was busy reading papers on the table
âweâre doing greatâ chenle replies nonchalantlyÂ
âare you two going steady now?â
that question made chenle halt to a stop on what he was doing
renjun notices that chenle turned quiet
âi never asked her to be officialâ chenle gasps, scaring renjun in the process
âwha-â
ârenjun hyung can you get me the biggest bouquet bundle you can findâ chenle rushes
renjun nods and grabs his ipad, looking for what chenle requested
âfuck.. what did y/n wanted againâ chenle asks himself, trying to remember the bag or things you told him about
âcall jisung and tell him weâre going to the mallâ chenle tells renjun yet again, rushing to the elevator so he could go to the mall with his best buddy
âso what are we buying your special someone again?â jisung asks chenle who was busy pacing around the mall
ây/n said she wanted a bag but i cant remember what was itâ chenle tells jisung who just looks as lost as he was
chenle ended up going to every luxury store they had in the mall
like louis vitton, gucci, prada, balenciaga, fendi
you name it he went there and bought one bag each
he even went to some make up stores thanks to jisungâs suggestion
surprisingly he had a girlfriend who was a makeup artist and puts make up on jisungâs face when they have nothing to do
and of course, chenle followed what his best friend suggested
now they were on their way back to your place cause you just texted chenle that you were almost done with your exam
chenle and jisung unload his car and went straight up to your apartment that you shared with your brother
and your brother answers the door
âuh chenle? what are you doing here?â jaemin answers the door
chenle stood there in shock once again, âjaemin hyung? youâre y/nâs brother?â he stares at jaemin confused.
jaemin nods slowly before realization hits him, âyouâre the person y/n is seeing?!âÂ
chenle nods uncertainly, slightly offended you never told jaemin about him but quickly shrugs it off.Â
âwell surprise! now can you help us with this? iâm asking y/n to be my girlfriend when she arrives homeâÂ
jaemin immediately steps in and helps the two boys
after an hour or so, everything is now set into place
now they were just waiting for you to arrive
chenle stood there with his usual work attire which was a formal suit, holding a big ass bouquet and the paper bags right behind him
âjisung how do i look?!â chenle looks at jisung who was showing him two thumbs up
âdashing bro, sheâll say yes in no timeâ
and as if on cue, you walked in
and to say you were shocked to see chenle standing thereÂ
âlele! what are you doing here?â you covered your mouth in shock as you saw the never ending line of paper bags right behind him and the bouquet he was holding
âiâm here to ask you to be mineâ he replies, staring at you once again
âdoes my brother know youâre here?â you look around your living room and you spot jaemin in the kitchen, watching the entire thing go down
âyeah. why didnât you tell me he was your brotherâ chenle pouts, but shakes his head as he hands you the bouquet
chenle clears his throat once again, âna y/n.. would you be my first and last girlfriend?â he closes his eyes tight, waiting for your response
âi would be honouredâ you take the bouquet off his hands and jumped into his arms
âabout time you asked herâ jisung comments in the background
âbaby look, i got you some gifts!â chenle puts you down and shows you the abundant amount of things he got you
you smacked him in the chest, âwhat did i say about you giving me expensive gifts!âÂ
âlet me spoil you, please? you showed me how loving someone wholeheartedly is priceless, and i want to return the favor in my own wayâ chenle shows you his infamous puppy eyes.
âlele youâre making me cry!â you tear up, hidng your face in his neck
âalso because i canât remember the thing you told me you wanted a few days ago so i had to compromiseâ chenle giggles
you were happy
and he was happy
who knew an app could bring you two together and end up like this
the end!

âi-i was wonderinâ if youâd like to go on a date with me.. sometime..?â
âis this not a date?âÂ
then Benâs cheeks went red, even more so than they were before
because like
he had been waiting for the right time to ask you on a date since he followed you into that cafe
how was he supposed to know he was gonna spend the next two hours talking to you in that back table
but you looked so lovely underneath the fairy lights of the cafe
and he adored the rose tint on your cheeks whenever you subtly dropped in your love for Queen
thatâs another thing, he loved your taste in music
i mean, itâs a given that you liked Queen because of Bo Rhap
but when he learned of all the other bands / artists you loved, he kinda sorta just wanted to kiss you right there
he shouldâve
anyways
ân-no, i mean, like a proper date, not that this canât be considered one, but-â
âiâm joking, iâd love toâ you cut him off, more laughs spilling from your mouth
and then you and Ben set a date, a time, and after he insisted on picking you up, you finally let him
the day of, he showed up with your favorite flowers which uh
u didnât tell him what ur favorite flowers were
he uh.. kinda found out through instagram stalking
he didnât specifically stalk you
but Joe did
Ben mentioned you to Joe and Joe was quick to find your account
(letâs pretend itâs on public if itâs not)
âoh sheâs on public, this is gonna be funâ Joe said to Ben while they were hanging out the next night
âshe is?!â Ben jumped over and
for a moment he wanted Joe to like.. stop because he kinda felt weird doing it
but i mean
he also was super super curious to see your posts and kinda also wanted to see more of ur face
so he went along with it
âshe might even be funnier than I amâ Joe said when he went over one of your captions
âI couldnât stop laughing when I was with her, sheâs hilariousâ Ben gushed
âoh wait, whatâs that one?â Ben made Joe stop scrolling to click on one of ur pics
it was of u and your friendâs dog
with the caption âdonât tell (your friendâs name) but iâm stealing her dog forever sorryâ
âshe likes dogsâ Ben whispered to himself, a smile on his face as he imagined you with FrankieÂ
thatâs when Joe stopped and looked at his friend
âyouâve known her for a total of 30 hours and yet iâve never seen anyone do this to you.. you really like her, donât you?â
Ben sighed, he didnât want to let himself get so deep so quickly but
there was something about all this that just felt so easy, like itâs come into place
and something about you that made him feel as if heâs known you his whole life even if you had never been to england before meeting him
so Ben just smiled and nodded, hoping he wouldnât get his heart broken with all the risk heâs taking
and they continued scrolling till Ben got a text from âŚÂ
surprise surprise, youÂ
and completely forgot Joe was there for a momentÂ
âoh by the way, just so you know, her favorite flowers areâŚâ Joe told him before leaving
âhow do you know?â
âher instagram, which, if your elderly ass would bother to learn a little more about, is a great appâ
so anyways when Ben showed up with your favorite flowers u were happy and he was happy that u were happy
but also lol because you were staying in an airbnb and didnt rlly know where to put the flowers down
aaaannnywaaaaysÂ
then you two drove out into beautiful LondonÂ
the night life was buzzing with Londoners and tourists alike and you couldnât be happier to be in such a city
much less next to Ben, who if a week ago someone told you youâd be with himÂ
u might punch them for playing with your feelings
but here you are
âyou see that building? thatâs Abbey Road studiosâ
âso much history here, I think Iâm in loveâ
when Ben finally stopped driving
you two were in front of a rather tall building somewhere in the financial district
Ben rushed to your side to open the car door
âcan i ask where we are now?â you laughed and Ben chuckled as he finally told you
and he made sure to open the door for you on your way in
im convinced chivalry is still alive and comes in the form of ben hardyÂ
and u two rode the elevator aaallll the way upÂ
then you two went through a couple other doors
and then eventually you were met by a host who checked you guys in
then you were led outside
letâs say it summer by the way so you guys arent freezing when u go out
itâs a rooftop area, with outdoor furniture and plants decorating the area
fairy lights strung around the pergola, soft gentle music in the background
thereâs a few other couples having dinner but itâs peaceful and everyoneâs rather into each other so you know no oneâs eyes will be wandering
but your favorite part of the whole thing
was that you could see the entire london skyline from your position, with a table in the perfect spot so no one was blocking the view
âwhat dâya think? i-is it too much?â Ben asked shyly as you hadnât said anythingÂ
but you were in love with the place, your heart filled with joy
âit might be too early to say that this is the best date iâve ever been on but i will, if that gives you any idea for how iâm feelingâÂ
as the dinner progressed, any nerves you felt coming in vanished
as did Benâs
it felt natural, comfortable, meant to be
and when Ben reached over to hold your hand across the table
part of you never wanted him to let go, even if it made it a little harder to eat
in any case, he himself never quite wanted to let go either
with you, he wasnât Ben Hardy, actor. he was just Ben
and he felt like he could be anyone he wanted to be around you
he loved that even if you were a fan, you never made him feel like he needed to take on the actor-persona he hadÂ
in fact part of you forgot he was even an actor when you asked him if he had met anyone famousÂ
which made Ben laugh and your cheeks go redÂ
but Ben slipped up too lmao
âso I heard you like dogs?â
â...yes but...from.. who..â
then his cheeks got red as he had to carefully explain how him and Joe didnt stalk you on instagram but stalked you on instagram basicallyÂ
celebrities, theyâre just like us
thatâs when you laughed
which made Ben realise he could hear you laugh all day and never get tired of it
and never get tired of your smile
something about your twinkling eyes when you spoke about your friends and family back home
and about all your passions, ridiculous and not so ridiculous
u may or may not have let him in on your love for Queen, even more so than in the cafe
and u kinda forgot he was in Bo Rhap for a hot minute
but he was amused, he loved seeing you speak about something so close to your heart
and felt proud to be part of it
all in all Ben felt a feeling he hadnât experienced in quite a long time, if ever in his life
a feeling of completion, of relief
as if he had been waiting his whole life to meet you
and so he continued listening to your rant about how much you love Freddie and JIm together
watching as you blushed and apologised profusely for going on about them
âdonât be sorry, i wished we couldâve had more of them in the film as well. and i love hearing your opinions on them, i love hearing you talk about it all. it makes me more and more fortunate to have been part of itâ
âwell i have much more to say about anything Queen related if youâre interestedâ
âthen iâm always here to listen for when you do wanna speak about themâÂ
when dinner finished, you and Ben decided to postpone driving you backÂ
you two walked around the city more and eventually made it to a little park just up the road
your hand in his, humming â39 by your favorite band
Ben smiled to himself as he realised you felt the same comfort around him as he did with you
and so the months went on, date after date with Ben
till you found yourselves on your one year anniversary, walking around the same park you two had gone through on your first date
âdo you remember when we first came here?â he asked
âof course, itâs when I realised I love loved you and was basically fuckedâ
âwhyâd you say youâre fucked?â he laughed
âi mean, i was like, oh god iâve scared him by talking about my obsession with Queen and he actually knows them and heâll tell them and Brian and Roger will think iâm crazy and he wonât ever date me again after this and all i can do now is hum â39 and hope he wonât block me on instagram after thisâÂ
Ben cackled
âthatâs not at all what i was thinking, i hope you know thatâ
âwell obviouslyâ you rolled your eyes
âdâya wanna know what i was thinking?âÂ
âhmâ
âI was actually thinking of Freddie while we were walking aroundâ
âsameâ
âno, iâm seriousâ Ben chuckledÂ
âwhy were you thinking of Freddie then?â you giggled, squeezing his hand a little tighter
âwell, if I was just going in my head about how if it wasnât for him there wouldâve have been Queen, wouldnât have been a Bo Rhap, I never wouldâve been in anything like it, and I might not have met you then because of itâ
âi donât like thinking about thatâ you muttered, leaning your head into his side
âreally though, itâs mad how much heâs influenced all our lives in a good wayâ he stopped walking, you standing below him with curious eyes batting at himÂ
âi guess we have Freddie to thank then for bringing us togetherâ you said before pecking his lips
and then you two stood there for a moment, your head pressed against his chest as you listened to his heartbeat
thatâs when Ben looked down at you in his arms, then up into the starlit sky and whispered;Â
âthank you, FreddieâÂ

6) a flip of the dime. The nasty parts were always there, but he concealed/controlled them. Maybe bc said parts wouldn't exactly make him endearing to others? Anyhow, your interpretation makes him quite the interesting antagonist/villain, so I'm rolling with it, lol. /// There was another thing that was bugging me about S2: the baby's name. Obviously, Serena chose Nic(h)ole as a "fuck you" to Fred. But June in the finale? Of course, she stuck to it for Nick's sake, but also bc she recognized
7) Serenaâs selfless (well, if you can call it that) act. Thoughts on this? /// As for your older responses, I forgot to describe what an epiphany it was for me to realize the significance of Serenaâs use of the word ârapeâ for the first time. The anger I felt after 2x10 blinded me to the VERY OBVIOUS connection between her realization in 2x10 and her outburst in 2x11. (Silly me!) Imagine how much more intense that fight would have been if they included the marital rape. I remember a writer
8) that June didnât kill Serena, bc she actually felt sorry for her in that episode. (Ngl, Juneâs kindness baffles me at times.) I knew that she wasnât gonna do it of course, but it was 50/50 whether I wanted her to shoot them or not. /// Something I have not addressed so far is how lukewarm I found their explanation for June getting away with all the shit she does. Well, sheâs no Janine (who loses an eye) or Emily (who gets mutilated), but still. Like you said, Serena and Fred might get away
9) get away with a lot more bc of their privilege, but June? Hm. // Iâll start quoting later (or maaaybe tomorrow).
ââââ
I always thought that was a really weird sort of thing for June to do. And it seems to be entirely because of Serena? Like, it was Holly, Holly, Holly. Even when she was talking to Nick. Then she has the exchange with Serena, and suddenly she adopts Serenaâs supreme dickmove of a babyname?Â
And I LIKED Holly. It meant something. Nichole (I HATE THAT SPELLING SFM LMAO) means nothing to June? Can you imagine the convo:Â
âMommy, why am I called Nichole?â
âWell, baby, you see, your Daddyâs name is Nick, so the lady that stole you decided to name you after him to eternally piss off her husband who she clearly hates and wanted him to be reminded that heâs impotent every time he looks at you.â
Like, on the one hand, Serena is fucking brilliant and it just shows the extent of her hatred for Fred. But then itâs kinda shitty to use a child as a pawn in that.
Then again, maybe thereâs another reason Serena chose that name? I know thereâs like a whole history about St. Nicholas and his role as a patron saint of childless couples, or something. (I canât recall exactly rn). And there was something about St. Nicolette and babies. (Which is where the names Nicole and Collette come from.) Something like she raised a dead baby back to life. So, I guess, at a stretch perhaps that was her inspiration? I doubt it, knowing Serena. LOL.
Itâs really curious Juneâs decision though. Despite EVERYTHING Serenaâs done, June just wipes it clean and names her fucking baby after Serenaâs choice? Maybe she was trying to retain the memory of Nick for Nichole? I dunno. And not only that, but she seemed 100% genuine when she said that farewell blessing and held Serenaâs hand (again).Â
I dunno, Juneâs own preoccupation with Serena is something I donât truly understand but she clearly thinks thereâs some odd connection or something. Itâs funny cos I was reading a review about S2 and Juneâs choices in the finale, and her constant support of Serena despite ALL the reasons not to, and lemme see if I can find itâŚÂ
 Nah. I canât. Anyway, it was something about how we all know Juneâs going back for Hannah, but this writer thought June was also going back for Serena.
Iâm not convinced about that tbh, but I can see the argument cos June is strangely protective and compassionate towards Serena considering. I just have a sinking feeling that the show is gonna play that âOops, Serena is evil again!! SHE WAY MAD JUNE GIVE BABBY AWAY trolololol!!!!â and make her despicable in order to get Nicole back. If that is the case, Iâm gonna roll my eyes right outta my head. I have no issue with Serena having regrets, tbh. I think thatâs pretty understandable and expected. But having Serena go hogwild with abuse and using Fredâs power to get back at June or something is just going to fucking piss me off cos like, câmon my dudes, been there, done that. Over and over already. Itâs the 3rd season and either youâre gonna put this bitch on a mild redemption arc or youâre gonna make her a full-on villain. Make up your minds. The will-she, wonât-she thing is old by now.
I dunno that was a random OT rant.
Also, TRUTH! Serenaâs use of the word ârapeâ was important. Like, part of me is like DUH how did you JUST figure that out?! And, honestly I feel like the marital rape is sort of necessary for Serenaâs epiphany to get recognised. I think, Serena is just wilfully ignorant enough to not truly consider the Ceremony rape. I honestly do not think she totally understood what she was suggesting with the 2x10 rape. (Serena really does lack forethought for likeâŚall of her actions. Thatâs sorta her whole problem.) I think she thought it would be just like a sort of unsanctioned ceremony. But by the end she did seem to recognise what it truly was. And having her raped by Fred in the previous episode would have really helped with that. (Then again, itâs really hard to understand how a woman who was just raped turns around and basically suggests it. And this person is supposed to be not Satan. A pure evil woman sure. But Serenaâs not meant to be that.)
I think Yvonneâs delivery of the line was interesting too. Part of it was like, âHOly shit it was rapeâ and part of it was like, âha! youâre a monster!! you did that!â Like she had no culpability in it. I want to know if Serena has realised that ALL ceremonies are RAPE yet. I wonder if sheâs got there. Iâm not totally convinced she has. But⌠I dunno.
Oh! I hadnât read that about Juneâs reasoning! Thatâs interesting. I mean, it fits with June overall but itâs a very odd thing. Like, to be holding a gun trained on the couple that literally held you down and raped you not 24 hours earlier⌠and feel SORRY for the woman (whereas the general populationâs consensus is that Serena is even worse than Fred for doing that to another woman)? I went and watched it after reading your message I didnât really see that on Juneâs face. (But thatâs really neither here nor there since editing, directing, etc. all differs from what the writers/showrunners had in mind and those are the guys doing the interviews!) I take that back! I watched it again and I can deffo see that if thatâs what they were going for. Totally missed it and likely wouldnât have picked up on it if not for this convo.
That said, I totally see June reasoning it out that way. For some strange reason, whether itâs Stockholm Syndrome or whatever, June seems to have a blindspot/softspot for Serena and she seems to have unlimited Get Out Of Jail Free cards for her. Like, câmon, she literally held her down to be brutally raped, and at this point it seems like Serena could murder June and Juneâs ghost would just be like, âHey youuuuu, wanna be my bestie in overthrowing the patriarchy?â (Okay, Iâm not at all complaining cos I love their dynamic and I ship them soooooo⌠lol. On a personal level, it works very well for me and my crackshippy fantasies. I choose to believe June honestly sees something nobody else does and believes in Serenaâs capacity for redemptionâWHICH IS INSANE. But hey. I love it.)
So, for June to feel sorry for Serena, even after everything really does fit when you think about it. And also when you think about book!Juneâs attitude towards true power being in forgiveness.
I remember sitting around watching the ep the first time and thinking âI donât want June to shoot them and be a killerâ but also, âWHY ISNâT SHE SHOOTING THE FUCKING PLACE UP! DOES SHE NOT WANT TO ESCAPE????â And I was sitting there with the wifey and she was like, âShe canât. What if she misses? Then youâve got 2 incredibly angry people chasing you.â And I was likeâŚÂ âUh. Reload? Shoot them as theyâre coming up the stairs.â
Because I have never fired a gun in my life so to me it seems really easy lmao. But to me, I didnât even care about her shooting Serena but I did have an inkling she didnât want to shoot Serena with the amount she paused. That would have been a perfect shot with teh type of ammo to take out âor at least injureâ two people at once. I was like, âYou gotta kill Fred and Serena is pretty useless then. Itâs not like they have mobile phones! You can then choose to leave Serena to die there lol, or hostage her. And steal the car. You could get pretty far since nobody knows that Fred/Serena are even there.â To me, rationally, it didntâ make sense not to shoot them. But⌠emotionally, obvs, I knew she wouldnât cos a)the series would like⌠end rather abruptly lol, and b) thatâs just not June.
AND yeah, June getting away with all her bullshit is insane in comparison. Janine literally lost an eye for backtalking once at the Red Centre! June has, well, done so much more and just kind skates away from ALL serious punishment. (Well, living with Fred and Serena is a pretty awful punishment in general.) And, sure part of it was cos she was preggers but ⌠how Aunt Lydia/Fred/Serena/TPTB trust this crazy Handmaid not to KEEP breaking the rules is insane. I feel like nobody would trust her to just be a docile little thing after running away for 92 days. Not even Pervy Freddo. Despite all his creeptastic fetishes, heâd be like, âOMG she is way too high maintenance. i just donât have the patience. give me that baby so i can shut my annoying wife up and then get me another more docile babyslave to play Scrabble and shave!â The plot armour is strong in this one!
Anyway! I got a bit carried away thereâŚ
