Cast List

[REDACTED]

🖤 Quiet kid that used the after school theater program to delay returning home. Never wanted to perform, but loved doing costumes, make up, and correcting others (in his mind) on how to portray their roles. 

🖤 Spent a little extra time perfecting the costumes of a certain someone who didn't even know they existed. He always traded house chores with his sister so she'd sit in the audience to solely film Tree #2's performance.

🖤 Was an apprentice special effects makeup artist after graduation at first, particularly for horror films, but it didn't exactly pay the bills when they left home.

🖤 Easily rose to the top in their acting career due to his dedication for crafting characters to perfection. 

🖤 Dolly Parton/Lady Gaga-esque in their separation of work and life—completely unrecognizable in their regular civilian attire. Paparazzi have never gotten a picture of them in all their years trying.

🖤 Has zero issues getting into character, but does "method acting" on occasion to make sure people leave them alone on set. And also to fuck with directors and producers they don't like. Notoriously difficult to work with because of it + their overall attitude towards others, still gets hired somehow.

🖤 Got offered the role as the main love interest in 14DWY without an audition, thanks to a previous manipulative pink haired character he played in a film that ended up never being released. (2017 Ren because it's funny)

 Angel (you!)

💜 Participated in the same after school theater program as [REDACTED] and Leon for a few semesters before you got bored of it. Curiosity for acting resurfaced later in life.

💜 Newbie actor at the recently formed talent agency of your friend. Only starred as non-speaking roles or background characters in small productions until the drama. You moved back to Corland Bay after uni for the better industry prospects.

💜 You initially auditioned for a very small role in the drama as an employee in a seaside shop at first, but somehow you wound up as the lead? (un)lucky you.

💜 Feel free to fill in the blank for any whys and hows you think of to fit your OC/self/sona as you so please <3

Elanor

💖 Normally an actress and casting director, first time as an executive producer for the drama. Dreams of bringing her own romantic screenplays to life. Hasn't quite proven herself the way she wants in the industry to feel confident enough in them. 

💖 Catalyst for the drama being made. A "friend" mistakenly recommended the 14DWY book to her. She absolutely loathes all the psychological horror of it but sees the potential it has.

💖 Also the reason [REDACTED] was immediately cast, and you as well once she saw your chemistry with him while reading for a minor role. He hadn't shown a fraction of as much interest when reading lines with other potential candidates, so she decided to take the risk of an untested talent as the headliner.

💖 Refuses to use her family's name to get her stuff made. She wants her works to speak for themselves. Very picky about who she works with due to her family having hands in most of Corland's entertainment industry so she hardly gets a genuine interaction beyond ass-kissing.

💖 Always partial to working with Conan's small studio since he was the only director to give her any sort of criticism in spite of her family, as gentle and polite as it was. She still cried a little in the dressing room though.

💖 Genuine confusion when Conan wants her to act as both a producer and assist with direction. She only intended to bring it to his interest. But how could she say no to someone whose judgment and opinion she respects so much?

Conan

💖 Runs and owns a small scale studio in the Bay that seems to pick and choose its productions at random. It is in fact Alice sneaking into her dad's home office and putting scented stickers on the ones she likes. (She only reads the titles)

💖 Extremely proud of Elanor for getting so far on her own, and would take on one of her dozens of scripts no questions asked if she'd only work up the courage to show him one. So imagine his surprise when she comes to him with a romantic horror instead of one of the fairy tale romances he sees her scribbling notes on during breaks.

💖 While he’s the one with the final say, he does try to let Elanor have as much free reign as possible on the project in the hopes to boost her confidence.

Kiara

💖 A super-star actress and model that got her start in Corland’s local industry, but quickly hit it big. 

💖 When she isn’t drowning in work, she’ll swing through town to check in on her sister.

💖 Desperately wants to star in one of Elanor’s productions, but respects her sister’s desire for independence. Though she does like to tease about certain casting decisions on the drama when made aware of them.

the rest of the cast are unfortunately very silly i couldn't resist

Moth

💖 Started a talent agency out of spite for the terrible castings in their favorite media. Got further invested upon realizing they could read the scripts before the movies or show adaptations were even announced.

💖 The one who pushed you to audition for a minor role in the production once the rumor about who was cast as the main love interest reaches them. They've heard all the horror stories about [REDACTED] so wanted the inside scoop. Horrified and fascinated to find out you get the lead role. It’s like watching a train wreck.

Leon

💖 Joined the theater program initially because of you, but got really into it. Moved away to attend a performing arts school until his mother got sick.

💖 Took every wacky infomercial or street performance gig he could find to pay the hospital bills until Teo found out and swooped in.

💖 Eternally grateful for the burden of financial ruin being relieved, so he always accepts the jobs Teo gets for him. He definitely won’t complain since he’s not dressed in an animal costume and shouting nonsensical slogans for cleaning products.

Teo

💖 Met Leon through a shared production and quickly bonded. Attended a different performing arts school and met Jae as a child.

💖 Almost the exact opposite of his game character purely for the funnies. Shy, introverted, can’t flirt to save his life. Still a nepo baby but he can hold his own in acting. Doesn’t like his character much, but is extremely jealous of the confidence he oozes.

💖 Leon and Jae are his only friends in the industry so he uses his sway to get them parts if they haven't already gotten a call back. Gets REALLY nervous on set for certain roles so he needs their support.

Jae

💖 Attended the same school as Teo when they were kids, and is constantly pitching intentionally bad ideas and joking on set to reassure his friend.

💖 A little bit of a thrill seeker, so does all his own small stunts if he thinks he’s capable. Stands there and gawks watching the more extreme stunts, loudest to clap when they go well.

💖 Kept bringing Maple to the shoots cause how could he even think about leaving her at home? She would occasionally break her leash and wander into a scene for head scratches and kisses. The film crew always booed when a PA came to take her off set.

Violet

💖 Completely terrible at caring for plants. Inspired by her role, she starts vlogging about her plant mom journey before shooting even begins. All her advice is completely wrong and terrible. Her personal assistant keeps her in the dark by tending to the plants themselves to fix her mistakes.

💖 Finds out she has a talent for flower arrangement, though. Does thank you vases for the cast and crew on all her future productions that last a lifetime because her PA made sure all the flowers were fake.

Exposition

(silly on set shenanigans)

🎬 Scenes get retaken quite a bit, since you’re still extremely new to it all. Most of the cast and crew expect anger out of [REDACTED] after the 4th call for a re-shoot on the first day’s library scene, but he’s surprisingly cracking jokes about his dye job and reassuring you that you’re doing great. The infamously ill-tempered actor is smiling somehow… even being patient? Not glaring down his co-star for minor slip ups? They cannot recognize this person.

🎬 Violet and [REDACTED] naturally butt heads on set. She respects their acting, not the actor. Zero hesitation to snap back if he’s getting snarky with a PA. You’re the one people have to beg to separate them, and you’re completely baffled that [REDACTED] doesn’t treat others as nicely as he treats you.

🎬 Even though Elanor is a nervous wreck about the first real thing to ultimately make or break her career, she’s scarily efficient on set—as long as no one distracts her. She does get sidetracked once in a while, only because she loves chatting and answering any questions the cast or crew might have. She even brings one of her own cats to set during a slower day to see if they can get along with Maple. Leaves Conan in charge when the horror scenes are being shot. They’re both put off by how vivid they feel, but Conan at least can grin and bear it. 

🎬 You and Leon manage to catch up on set while [REDACTED] is otherwise occupied shooting said horror scenes. You tease him about a few infomercials you saw when looking up his actor reel, and Leon teases you back about your unlucky streak of being a tree or a rock in every play the theater program put on when y’all were younger. Laughs even harder once he finds out your most prominent roles until then were “unnamed zombie #5 at the bottom of the pile” and “sleeping train passenger.”

🎬 Try as he might, [REDACTED] doesn’t convince Elanor to change up a few crucial parts of the script for his benefit. His offhand threats of leaving the production fall on deaf ears, as she is all too happy to do re-shoots to make Teo the lead. His innocent hints to you about the shoddy script fly over your head for some reason! You love how it's turning out, what does he mean?

🎬 Super shy Teo prefaces and warns his co-stars before acting in every scene of his character being excessively flirty. Most of the actors have worked with him at some point or another beforehand, so they let him go through his routine without issue. Some crew members love the whiplash of him switching between overly courteous and smarmy, others vastly prefer the flirty character and mourn the loss as production comes to a close.

The Build Up

📺 The higher ups pressure Violet to start a short-lived streaming career to boost interest, since she’s hopeless with plants. She amasses a cult following for her MMO reviews, blind raids on new patches, and her wild ride of a Minecraft playthrough. In the end she winds up preferring to play games off stream, but once in a blue moon she’ll do a first time raid stream so her more dedicated fans can join and watch her alliance get wiped. Creative trolling is highly encouraged.

📺 Teo, Jae, and Leon appear on a late night TV show for promotion. It was meant to be for Teo and [REDACTED] at first. (Where’s the leading lover? [REDACTED] refused all promo appearances or sit downs without you being involved in them.) The host plays a clip that Teo’s particularly embarrassed about, and he hides his face in shame when the crowd hoots and hollers praise about his portrayal.

📺 [REDACTED] comes across as doting and overprotective of you once you’re pushed into the spotlight of celebrity, and shows increasingly concerning behaviors as the premiere looms closer. Depending on your response, they’ll back off to a point or dial it up. Interviewers and consumers mistake it as the eccentric actor’s “method acting” so the red flags just slide right past.

📺 Elanor and Conan guest star in a podcast for off-the-cuff romance enthusiasts. Their strangely cagey and joking comments like “there were so many retakes we couldn’t keep track of what was meant to be the actors messing around or part of the final cuts,” and “we’ve actually sent all the reviewers 1 of 14 versions with completely different endings,” leave listeners all the more curious to see the film.

The Climax

🎉 Reception is huge, in good ways for most. The majority of the cast see a surge in popularity if they didn’t already from the hype. 

🎉 Teo bemoans his endless offerings for sarcastic pretty boy jobs, Leon makes enough to get picky about his roles (and pay Teo back), Jae somehow cons a studio into an action film starring Maple—and subsequently adopts every single one of her stunt doubles. 

🎉 Moth throws the agency away to start adapting anime and manga themselves. Elanor finally feels validated enough to bring one of her romantic screenplays to the big screen, starring her sister Kiara and a very enthusiastic Violet as the leading couple. 

🎉 Conan’s studio is overloaded with scripts, and Alice runs out of scented stickers that much quicker. They are severely backlogged send help.

🎉 One determined conspiracy theorist sets out to prove those missing 13 versions of the ending are real, based on minor cuts and inconsistencies purposefully left in the public release.

The End, Roll Credits

choose your own ending

Bad End 💔 - A Falling Star

💔 If you respond negatively to [REDACTED]’s demeanor during shoots and promo: he plays the waiting game, uses his connections and blackmail to make sure all your roles without his name attached don’t garner nearly as much attention as the ones where you’re co-stars.

💔 Your negotiating power quickly plummets as you fall out of demand and end up begging just for the non-speaking roles you once loathed.

💔 The careers of anyone you got close to on set fall apart much faster than yours, before they’re outright blacklisted in the industry.

💔 You begrudgingly call up your last option. He can’t do much for your friends, but their offer to help you make a comeback is always open.

Neutral End 💌 - Just One More Try

💌 If you respond indifferently to [REDACTED]’s demeanor: the drama leads to you getting more offers, though a handful are for playing opposite of [REDACTED], as the on-screen chemistry was too much for studios to ignore for cash grabs.

💌 Elanor has rid herself of the drama’s subsequent rights, despite positive reception, so a sequel sprouts up in the works at a different studio. One that doesn’t mind catering to the whims of their actors when it comes to script integrity.

💌 You arrive on the set to find that not just one, but all of your cast mates except for them were written to have much smaller parts in the sequel. In fact, you rarely find a scene in the revised script where [REDACTED] isn’t alongside you.

💌 Sadly the contract is air tight, just put up with it until it’s over… What’s this clause about further sequels?

Good End 💍 - Off Into the Sunset

💍 If you respond positively to [REDACTED]’s demeanor: you’ll sadly announce at the post premiere press conference that acting was a one-and-done adventure for you. Retired effective immediately, no farewell interviews.

💍 You’re spotted around town for a few weeks in a mask with a tall, darkly dressed companion at your side before you disappear from the public eye and Corland Bay all together.

💍 A few of your friends at least have an idea of where you are, and they meet up with you whenever you're in a nearby city. None of them can recognize the man glued to your side, though. Not that he'd say anything to clue them in.

💍 After months of near inactivity, [REDACTED] mysteriously deletes their socials without a word, sparking confusion and outrage among hardcore fans still desperately hoping for a sequel.

Mission: Glazed ~ haechan

Genre: homecook!haechan x gn reader, college!au, non idol!dreamies, fluff!!!! Words: 5k Warnings: none ! uhhh I can't cook so food and cooking descriptions are lacking ... I just described food I got from cafés recently >,< req: hi! can i make a request for haechan? say he’s a home cook or just really enjoys cooking as a hobby, reader/oc belongs in the same circle of friends as his and he invited his friend group for dinner at his place, and he kind of stresses out over the food he’s gonna cook cause he likes oc and really wants to impress them with his cooking. bonus if reader also likes pastry and desserts and has a hobby of making them as well, and haechan goes as far as asking the others what’s reader’s favorite dessert and “discreetly” makes that for everybody he says, but he really only did that for the reader and just really wants to impress them. i’m sorry this was so long 🥹 thank you so much! p.s. i love your works they make me giddy and smile hehe 👉👈

“Damn, Hyuck, that smells good,” Jeno inhales exaggeratedly through his nose, letting his senses enjoy the delicious smell wafting up from the tinfoil his friend is unfolding. Donghyuck can’t hold back the proud smirk on his face as his friends watch him, teasing them by unfurling the side of the tinfoil before wrapping it over again, eyes glinting with mischief as they deflate at his refusal to reveal the dish. 

“Just show us,” Renjun groans, smacking Donghyuck’s hand.

“Please,” you pout, and Donghyuck’s smirk drops into a genuine smile as his fond eyes fall on your pleading face. 

“Fine, since you asked nicely,” he grins at you, shooting you a wink as he reveals the neatly folded, though rather plain-looking, wrap. Everyone’s excitement drops at the reveal, a snigger coming from Chenle’s mouth as Donghyuck pouts disappointedly. 

“That’s it?” Jisung asks, eyes zoning in on Donghyuck’s lunch. 

“Well, yeah,” Donghyuck answers. “It smells good, though, right?” He grins, wafting the wrap around so that everyone gets a quick waft of the aromatic spices and secrets wrapped in the unsuspecting flour tortilla. 

“Four-hour marinated chicken, gently fried, my own kimchi-inspired secret sauce, on a bed of succulent salad,” he teases his friends sitting around the table, who can’t help perking up at the scent. “It tastes even better, I promise you,” he grins, watching as you lick and Jeno your lips; Renjun and Jisung gulp ever so slightly; and Mark makes no secret of his hunger with the pleading frown on his face. 

“Dude, just one bite!” Mark begs, hand reaching out across the table. “Hey! If he gets a bite, I want one, too,” Jeno groans. 

“Me too!” You pipe up with an eager voice, and Donghyuck wishes he could think of a good enough reason to let only you try it. 

“If I let everyone try it, then there won’t be any left for me,” Donghyuck holds firm, enjoying all eyes trained on him as he takes a large bite, the succulent meat and juicy sauce – if he had to say so himself – perfectly cooked with a blend of ingredients that gave it the right amount of kick to perk up his afternoon.

“Please,” you whine, pout still on your lips, Donghyuck’s heart almost bursting at how wide your sweet eyes have gone, the way your tongue darts across your lower lip as you salivate at his cooking sending another puff of hot air directly into his ego. Swallowing the bite, he pauses for a second as if thinking, though he’d never admit he’d already made up his mind and was just waiting for the perfect moment.

“How about this?” He offers, and everyone’s attention is forced onto Donghyuck yet again, the way his friends’ bodies are already leaning forward making him smirk yet again. “Everyone comes round on Friday, and I’ll cook a meal.” He 

“Oh,” Jisung says, deflated,  and everyone seems to lean back, realising no one’s getting a chance at tasting the dish in front of them. 

“What?” Donghyuck pouts, disappointed by the reaction. “I’m offering you all free food; be grateful!” 

“That’s suspicious,” Renjun glances at Donghyuck, eyebrows knitted. 

“You never cook for us, and we live with you,” Jeno adds, agreeing with Renjun.

“And Friday’s, like, four days away,” Mark groans. “I’m hungry now.” 

“That’s really nice of you to offer, Hyuck!” You, his saviour, burst into the scene of disappointment. With a bright smile and shining eyes, your excitement is a warm breeze coming through to drive away the grey clouds. You nod enthusiastically, smacking Jeno, who’s still bitterly pouting next to you, urging him to join your enthusiasm.

“Oh, yeah, uh, yeah!” Jeno fumbles, looking to you for the correct response before nodding along. 

With a dumb smile plastered on his face, Donghyuck takes another bite of his lunch, the crunch of the salad leaves complimenting the smooth sauce and tender strings of chicken. 

“Shit, we have to go to class anyway.” Mark’s head falls to his hands, and his palms are the only solace to his gnawing stomach. He rests for a moment before you come to his side, patting his head sympathetically. So kind, Donghyuck thinks. 

“Everyone, Friday then. Our place.” Jaemin affirms, his head raising from where it’d been leaning on the table, everyone slightly shocked that he was actually awake for the conversation. 

Murmurs of agreement diffuse across the table and you, Mark and Chenle pack your things up. 

“Y/n?” He calls, eyes trained on the hair that bounces across your forehead as you turn to face him, happily giving him a casual smile. 

“Mm?” 

“Bite,” he says, holding out his lunch across the table so you can try it. Donghyuck doesn’t usually like sharing his food –– but the way your eyes go wide and impossibly brighter, shining stars reflected off a sea of excitement as you look at him as if you’d just won the lottery –– he thinks maybe he can enjoy sharing if it’s with you.

“Thank you!” You grin, leaning forwards and taking a bite, contentment evident across your face, eyes blissfully shut as you chew. When you’re done, you let out a small sigh, a lazy grin appearing across your lips. “It’s so good! You’re the best, Hyuck” The grin plastered on your face sends boiling ice through Donghyuck’s veins, feeling more alive than ever at the way your eyes are full of happiness, trained on him.  

“Why does only y/n get some,” Mark pouts. 

Chenle grins, a teasing smile on his face as he raises an eyebrow at Donghyuck.  “Are they your favourite or something?” 

“They were the only one who’s actually excited about me offering to cook for you ungrateful brats,” Donghyuck rolls his eyes, cool facade rising again. 

“See you!” You wave as Mark and Chenle drag you away, complaining about how unfair Donghyuck was and how they’re going to get McDonald's after class. Donghyuck offers a shy wave in return, gentle hand twisting slowly as he watches you turn away. 

When he turns back around, Jaemin is staring at him with a vicious smile. One arm resting flat against the table, leaning his head on his palm as he looks up at his friend. Jaemin raises his eyebrows up and down. 

“Shut up,” Donghyuck groans, turning away from Jaemin. 

“I didn’t say anything,” Jaemin informs him. 

“You did, with your eyes, and I’m telling them to be quiet.” 

“Okay, so I have four days to come up with the best, most ass-kicking meal I’ve ever cooked,” Donghyuck looks into the distance, staring out the window as he pours over the recipes in his head. He had a clear mission in mind, his expectations of himself doubling as he scoured the recesses of his brain for anything you might have mentioned as your favourite. You were his target, the one he wanted to impress. Ever the dramatic, he was not giving up this chance to make you fall from him, one bite at a time.

“It’s not that deep,” Jeno laughs, “We don’t have high expectations.” 

“Yes,” Donghyuck turns to Jeno and stares intently, expression conveying emotion far more profound than the boy across from him could understand in the situation, “It is that deep.” 

D-4 

Donghyuck wants to curse himself for not picking the one course he could have taken that overlapped with your choices. Outside of not sharing any classes, living on opposite sides of campus, and being generally busy students, the only chance he gets to see you during the week are lunches and free periods where your friends gather at your usual haunts. 

And even then, there are always other people around. It’s hard enough not to be too obvious, which arguably Donghyuck already is, but it’s even harder when you're laughing along to his stupid jokes, a melodic chuckle that he thinks he could imprint in his brain if he heard it enough. 

“So,” Donghyuck turns to you, swivelling in his chair. With one elbow on the table, propping up his head, he raises his eyebrows.

“So?” Your eyebrow piques, mimicking him and turning your body to face him, eagerly gifting him your undivided attention. 

“If you were going to die–”

“Who’s going to die?” Jeno interrupts in a panic, “not you, y/n, please, who else will remind me to wash my vegetables!” Jeno pouts at you, and Donghyuck lets out a ‘hmph’, eyes narrowing to a point. If looks could kill, it would be Jeno that was dying. 

“No, no, no-one’s actually dying,” you calm him. “I think,” you turn back to Donghyuck, allowing him to continue. The wry smile on your lips tells you that you find this amusing, and Donghyuck’s relieved.  

“Okay, first off, it’s a hypothetical question, dumbass.” Donghyuck continues. “So, if you were going to die, and you had one last meal – anything you want, no limits – what would you have?” 

Cocking your head to the side, you look up, pausing in thought. 

Jeno stares blankly in front of him, before speaking, monotone. “Beef burger.” 

“Oh, that’s a good question. I’d have lobster. Or caviar, truffles, gold-plated fries, anything expensive,” Chenle shrugs.

“Hot pot, obviously,” Renjun sneers, everyone clearly deciding that Donghyuck’s conversation which he intended to be private, was open to all. 

“Oh, that’s a good one,” Mark nods, deep in thought himself. 

“Y/n?” Donghyuck asks, looking at you. Your face, twisted in contemplation, eyebrows darkening over your eyes, lips pursued, growing pale with the pressure. 

“If I have my last meal, I die? So I shouldn’t choose, right?” You look at Donghyuck. The seriousness plastered on your features catches him off guard. “So I can’t tempt fate. I won’t pick.” With a firm nod, you lace your hands together in front of you.

Jeno nods in awe, Renjun and Mark laughing at your seriousness.

God, Donghyuck loves how cute you look with your face scrunched up in resolution, but he really wishes you were a little less imaginative with your answer. 

D-3

Donghyuck took his idea a little too far today, one might think. 

When he decided his best bet was a stealth mission, he picked out a sleek, all-black outfit, fitting for a spy. Before he left the house, he clasped his hands together in a finger gun, holding it upright as if awaiting his prey. He then turns swiftly, pointing his index fingers at his reflection in the hallway mirror, giving a small ‘pew’ sound as he pretends to shoot away his doubts.

“What the fuck is wrong with you?” Renjun asks from across the hallway. Donghyuck turns, guilty, looking at the boy with toothpaste staining the corner of his mouth as he glares from the bathroom doorway. 

Donghyuck drops his hands, turning on foot and walking out wordlessly. He wouldn’t understand. 

When he gets to the place you share with Mark, Chenle, and Jisung, it would be easy enough to knock, but no. Donghyuck likes to play games, so he pulls out his phone and dials your number.

“Hyuck? What’s up?” 

“Hey, I’m outside yours, are you in?”

“Oh yeah, Jisung said you were coming over to help him practice his presentation right?”

“Yep, could you let me in? I’ve been knocking for like five minutes.” It’s only a white lie, and it’s all for the greater good. Right?

“Oh my god, I’m so sorry! I didn’t hear, give me a sec–“ the line cuts off, and in the time it takes for Donghyuck to shake away the last of his doubts, you’re opening the door. 

“Hi!” You beam, Donghyuck immediately wrapping you in a warm hug, which you return. Scented shampoo floats up his nose, and Donghyuck swears he might pass out if you weren’t there holding him up. 

“Hey, how’s my favourite occupant doing?” 

“Not bad,” you smile back, looking upstairs. “I’ll go get Jisung?” 

“He can take his time, I’m kinda hungry though, and by that I mean I'm moments away from dying of starvation.” 

The sweet melody of your laughter spins through Donghyuck’s head once again as you lead him to the kitchen, opening up your shelves. He peeks over your shoulder, trying to observe for any clues as to what might just be your taste. 

Barren shelves greet him, a few dented cans and a sad, almost empty packet of pasta looking as deflated as Donghyuck’s plan. 

“Yeah, I’m not much of a cook…” you chuckle sheepishly. “Um,” you search through some more shelves. 

“So what do you eat?” Donghyuck asks, attempting to be casual. 

“Mostly whatever Chenle cooks, and a lot of toast. And cereal,” you hold up a box of cornflakes. “Can I interest you in any corny goodness?” 

Donghyuck laughs, despite the pang of jealously that Chenle gets to cook fro you everyday, when it should be him. 

“I dunno if you’ve heard, but I’m a pretty good cook actually.” Donghyuck 

“Hmm, maybe–”

The lanky, six-foot-tall interruption is the only variable he didn’t account for. 

“Donghyuck, you’re here! Okay, you’ve gotta help me with this presentation man, I’m not prepared to be up there. What if I stutter, or like, piss myself, or something?” 

D-2

His next attempt was a day later, a few hours before class. He offered to meet you and Chenle halfway between your respective dorms and campus, bringing along a tired and grouchy Renjun to diffuse his anticipation, under the guise of an early morning coffee shop study session. 

“Look, look, they’re coming,” Donghyuck slaps Renjun’s chest, his friend groaning and shoving Donghyuck with all the energy he can muster – which isn’t a lot. 

“Tell me why I agreed to this,” Renjun. 

“Because I’m irresistible and you love me more than sleep.” 

“No, I think it’s because I have an exam coming up, and you said you’d pay for my coffee.” 

“Same thing.” 

Donghyuck’s heart pounds as you and Chenle get closer, the way you tip your head back in laughter at something the friend has said makes him a little bit jealous, and Donghyuck wishes it was him that made you laugh that hard.   

“Hey Hyuck, Renjun,” you wave, strolling closer. 

Target locked, he takes in every detail of your face before extending his arms to pull you into a hug.

The slight tiredness in your eyes betrays how late you’ve been up, and he can’t help but softly pat your back and sway slightly, languishing in the contented hum you make as your tired form leans into his chest. When you break away and move towards Renjun, Chenle looks at him expectantly, and Donghyuck draws the younger into his arms too, though with slightly more fierceness in his grip. 

The walk to the cafe is short, with lingering laughter and moans of tiredness. Donghyuck’s palms are slightly clammy, and he rubs them on his jeans as he holds the door open for you to pass through, letting go and earning a groan from Chenle as he catches the door mid-swing. 

“Ass,” Chenle mumbles. 

“So, y/n, what’s your poison?” Donghyuck jokes, motioning to the coffee board in front of you. 

“For days like today? Double espresso cappuccino.”

“Anything to eat? Might give you some more energy, if the double espresso isn’t enough.”

“God, as much as I love pastries, if I have any sugar I won’t be able to focus.” 

Pastries. He locks onto that piece of information, hell-bent on using it to his advantage. 

“What would you usually get?” 

“Maybe a cinnamon roll? I like strawberry tarts but they don’t serve them here.” 

“Oh, so you like fruitier flavours?” 

“Uh, I guess? I love strawberries, but only if they aren’t too overcooked, I like them a little bit firm, but it’s so hard to get that right.” Your brows furrow slightly as if the strawberries that had disappointed you were plaguing your mind. Donghyuck smiles proudly, 

“Well, I don’t know if you’ve heard, but I happen to be one hell of a pastry chef too.” He grins.

“Oh, yeah?” 

“Yep,” he pops the ‘p’ proudly. It’s his turn in line, and before he can get a word out to the barista, Renjun is beside him. His painstaking efforts have gleaned one piece of information, putting him on top of the world. 

“I’ll have an extra strong caramel macchiato, and whatever the most expensive thing to eat here is.” Renjun nods at Donghyuck, then back to the barista, “he’s paying.” With a smirk, Renjun disappears, patting your shoulder and mumbling something about finding a good table. 

At that moment, even Renjun’s draining of his wallet couldn’t bring him down.

When the drinks are ordered and everyone’s shed their outer layers, sat at the table with warm mugs in hand and the fleeting remainders of the intention of studying slipping from mind, you nudge Donghyuck with your elbow.

“So you’re buying Renjun’s drinks now, hm?” You joke at Donghyuck, who nearly chokes on his sip of coffee. 

“What?” Chenle gasps from across the table. “Is he your favourite now or something?” 

“We all know that spot is reserved for y/n,” Renjun scoffs. 

The flush in your ears and the way you turn away slightly don’t go unnoticed by Donghyuck, who beams. He can’t help but take it as a challenge, throwing one arm around your shoulder and revelling in the way you relax slightly into his grasp.

“Not my fault y/n’s weak for me, I’m just returning the favour.”

Chenle snorts, “more like they’re afraid of you,” Renjun scoffing along with him. 

Donghyuck feigns being hurt, one hand clutching his chest as he leans into your shoulder, burying his head there and fake-crying as you laugh along, soothing him with a hand stroking his hair. 

“Hyuck’s a big softie, it’s Renjun we need to be afraid of,” you grin. 

“Okay, well, when he poisons us all on Friday, I’ll tell you I told you so,” Renjun shoots back. 

Donghyuck finally brings his head back up, his arm sliding down to rest on the back of your chair, keeping the slight point of contact he desperately wants to make a permanent feature of your relationship. 

“Speaking of, what are you cooking?” Chenle pipes up. 

“Yeah! I want to know,” you beam, turning to Donghyuck and giving him a toothy grin that all but melts his heart. 

“That, my friends” he taps his nose, acting mysterious. “Is a secret.” 

And as everyone boos, calling Donghyuck out for being disorganised and not making his mind up about what to cook, he smiles smugly. It was a secret, and it was your secret he was going to find out. 

D-1

He’s out of options. He’s sweating, panicking, terrified. 

“Mark, man, you’ve gotta help me out here,” Donghyuck sighs through the phone. 

“What?” Mark’s groggy voice responds. 

“You gotta help me, I’m freaking out.”

“What? Are you okay? You need picking up, what’s wrong dude?” 

“I’m in a mess. I wanted to cook something to impress y/n tomorrow, but I can’t figure out what they like and I’m screwed, what if I cook their least favourite meal? Then they hate me forever, and everything is ruined,” 

“Slow down, wait, wait.” Mark pauses. “You want to cook y/n’s favourite meal, so that they’ll like you?” The older boy is almost laughing at this point. 

“Shut up,” Donghyuck groans. “I know, I’ve been trying to find out all week, but my plans kept going wrong.” 

“Why didn’t you just ask to begin me to begin with? I eat with y/n every day, I know their palate pretty well.” 

“Stop bragging about it and just tell me,”

“Well, first off, Italian food. They’re not super picky or into anything fancy, a good pasta dish would be your best bet.” 

Donghyuck’s eyes widen. Finally. “Yes, and,” he urges Mark. 

“You owe me,” 

“Yes, anything, just tell me!” 

“So strawberry tarts, yeah?”

“Yeah,” Donghyuck nodded eagerly.

“So, the glaze on the top, like when it’s perfect and snaps a bit, and the strawberries aren’t overcooked, that’ll make y/n go crazy,” Mark chuckles. 

“Mark. I could kiss you right now.” 

“I’ll pass, you can save that for y/n.” 

The Day. 

When it hit 1PM, Donghyuck kicked his housemates out of the kitchen, several grocery bags in hand and a look of fear on his face. Renjun wanted to make a snide comment but didn’t have the heart when he saw the bags under Donghyuck’s eyes and his ravaged lower lip. 

It was quiet, for the most part. And when Donghyuck was quiet, that was a bad sign. 

When his other friends arrived, the door was still closed, and the steam coming from beneath the door was all that greeted them. 

“He’s… in the zone,” Renjun explained, pulling everyone. 

“Hyuck! Everyone’s here!” Jeno called through the door. A moment of silence, a loud crash, followed by “shit” and “give me a minute,” breaking through the door. 

“Is he okay?” You asked, raising an eyebrow at the closed door.

“He takes cooking seriously, I guess?” Mark shrugged. 

“That’s one thing at least,” Renjun adds. 

“Okay!” Donghyuck opens the kitchen door, gesturing inside. “The best meal of your lives awaits,” 

“Cute,” you giggle, raising your eyebrows at his dishevelled hair and splattered apron as everyone files inside, bemoaning their empty stomachs. 

“Huh? Oh,” Donghyuck hurriedly smooths down his hair and grins, “gotta look the part.”

He leads you in, Mark giving Chenle an elbow to leave two empty seats next to each other, which Donghyuck takes. Pulling out the chair, he motions to it, offering you the place. The slight flush in your ear, as you sit down sends butterflies through Donghyuck’s veins, his stomach doing summersaults in anticipation. 

“Okay. This,” Donghyuck removes the lid from the large pot in the centre of the table with a flourish, “is carbonara” 

“Carbonara,” Jaemin repeats, exaggeratedly rolling his r’s. 

“Pass me your plates,” Donghyuck takes your plate from in front of you, serving you first. The flourish of his wrist as he twists the spaghetti is practised, and the rounding of your mouth as you watch is exactly the desired effect. Soon, food is on all the plates, and mouths are salivating. Eyes look to Donghyuck, expectantly. 

“What are you waiting for?” He scoops up a forkful from his own plate. “Dig in.” 

Nobody speaks, the loudness of clattering utensils and chewing mouths all that fill the room. Nervously, Donghyuck eyes his friends, surreptitiously analysing their faces for signs of disgust, amazement, anything. 

“This is so good, Hyuck,” you turn to him first, eyes wide as your hand covers your equally wide mouth. 

“Really?” The desperation in his voice bleeds through more than he would have liked, but he can’t help it when your adoring face is praising the fruits of his – painstaking, he might add – labour. 

“Yeah!” You swallow, and place a hand on his leg. “This is like, the best carbonara I’ve ever had, it’s so hard to get right. You’re incredible!”

“Yeah, Hyuck, you’re pretty good,” Chenle agrees. 

Mark’s eyes are wide, clearly surprised. “I didn’t realise you were this good, dang! This is, like, restaurant quality.” 

“So, Donghyuck cooks every night?” Jaemin adds in. 

Praise from his friends is nice, but all that echoes in Donghyuck’s head are your warm words and your even warmer touch. Giddy, he can’t control the grin on his face as he naturally turns to you, the upturned corners of your mouth relaying your happiness. 

Everyone eats, conversation flows naturally, wine is poured and faces split into smiles. 

When plates cleared and stomachs full, Donghyuck glances around his friends’ faces, lazy smiles echoing around the room feeding his ego. The content, sleepy look on your face was all Donghyuck needed to know he had succeeded. Leaning back in your chair with a crumb on the corner of your mouth, head tilted to the side as you giggled along to the conversation that Donghyuck wasn’t even bothering to listen to, you looked too perfect for anything else to be worth paying attention to. 

“C’mere,” Donghyuck motions to you, and you lean up, trusting him entirely as you turn to face him. 

He reaches over, thumb gently swiping over your lower lip to remove the crumb. Someone wolf-whistles, and you immediately turn away, shy. 

Donghyuck ignores it, already feeling victorious. His meal was a success, you’d sung his praises, and to top it off, dessert was about to be served. 

“Next up, we have–“ he pauses for dramatism, before uncovering the plate “–strawberry tarts,” he passes the plate around the table, handing out the sweet treats. He saves one especially for you, the one with the reddest strawberries and shiniest glaze. 

The dessert is crisp, the pastry melting in your mouth as the still-firm strawberries covered in sugar soak your tastebuds, slight citrus in the crunchy glaze, just right. 

“This is delicious, Hyuck,” you sigh. “Nowhere cooks strawberry tarts like this, I can never find anywhere that does them this well!” 

Donghyuck doesn’t answer, overtaken with the genuineness of your words. 

“If you like it that much, I guess I’ll just have to make it for you again.” He shrugs, acting nonchalant, as if his heart wasn’t pounding through his ribs. 

“You’d do that for me?” 

“I’d do anything for you,” he scoffs, impulsive taking over and the words spilling from his heart. 

“Anything?” You ask, redness creeping up the back of your neck. Like the strawberry dessert in front of you, ears pink dusted and glazed with the sweetness of the boy in front of you. 

Donghyuck, for once in his life, is at a loss for words. How could he not do anything for you?

“This wasn’t enough for you to see that?” He chuckles, gesturing to the table in front of him. His voice is lowered, slightly bashful as he tries to keep the prying ears away from your private conversation. 

“Wait–” you halt, realisation hitting you at full force. “This is… my favourite,” you gesture at the dessert in front of you. 

“Yeah, you told me in the cafe that day, but I had to call Mark to find out for sure.” Donghyuck rubs the back of his neck. 

“You did this….” 

“To impress you, yeah it’s embarrassing, I know.” 

“No, Hyuck, it’s,” your shoulders relax, leaning forward to soak in his aura. “It’s really, really kind of you,” the falter in your words is all it takes for

“It sounds like you're going to add a ‘but’ in there. Please don’t let there be a but,” Donghyuck groans, hiding his face in his hands. Fuck. Even if he had impressed you, it didn’t mean you liked him back. He’d kidded himself into thinking this meal was the ticket to your romantic affections, the edge he needed to push himself from the brink of a friend to something more. 

“No, I just…” You shake your head, leaning away. 

In the moment of quiet, laughter ebbs from the other side of the table, the conversation your friends are joined in clearly going better than the one you two are engaged in. 

“Donghyuck,” you touched his arm lightly, gently. “Why?”

“What do you mean, ‘why?’” Donghyuck is stunned. 

“I mean why,” you search his eyes for answers, the confused look mirroring your own ending only in more questions. 

“Why? Y/n, why?” He gestures vaguely, chin tilting upward in indignation. “You really don’t know?” 

“Know what?” 

“I like you,” he spills the truth. 

Hesitation crackles, the silence slipping desperately close to awkward. Donghyuck wants to hide, run away, and never be seen again. He watches as your eyes go from confused and focused, to wide and dreamy. 

“You?” One finger points to Donghyuck. “Like me?” The finger turns to yourself. 

“Yeah.” Donghyuck’s voice is weak, the weakest it’s ever been. Always one to quip, always argue back, have a snide comment or weaponised joke tucked behind his lips, for once, he doesn’t know what else to say. 

“Me…” you repeat, still pointing to yourself. 

Donghyuck hurries to clear it up, waving his hands in front of me, trying to act casual in the disaster that was spiralling out of his control. “You don’t have to like me back, I’ll get over it, it’s whatever–” 

“Why didn’t you tell me sooner, idiot? I’ve liked you since that time you spent a week walking round trying to interview everyone for the podcast you swore was going to be the next big thing!”

With no time wasted, your lips crash against his, a needy but tender kiss that fills more certainty in both of your hearts than any word could. One of your hands leans on Donghyuck’s chest, steadying yourself against his relaxing heartbeat. One of his hands is on the back of your neck, drawing you closer, holding you against him as he hopes to keep you for as long as he can.

Jisung’s voice enters your heads, deep tone breaking through the quiet high of your first kiss. “Did I miss something?”

Fart kink asks (all 25 bc why not)

Woah uhhhh damn thank you so much!!! I'm glad I can finally answer the questions I've always wanted to!!! Here we go:

When did you realize you were into farts? Age 16 when I first learned how to touch myself

How did you figure out you were into farts? Probably fart jokes in shows, you know how it goes (live action scooby doo movie ruined a generation lol)

What’s your favorite type of fart? Quite a lot. Bubbly, wet, bassy, rumbly, silent, squeaky, etc. The kind that smell awful, like rotten cheese, milk, or eggs

Are there any types of fart you don’t like? Of course not. Farts are farts. Even the short, quiet ones have their charm

What about farting do you find most appealing? Probably the smell but sound is really hot too. As for the types of farter, I'm a big fan of embarrassment, but confidence is also suuuuper hot depending on what I'm in the mood for

Do you have a preferred length or volume for farts? I mean not really but I find myself fantasizing about long farts. Even hyperfarts that last for hours maybe even days on end (i guess I do have a preferred length lol). As for volume, any is fine, but if it's long, its extra hot if its bubbly and quiet or silent

Does farting turn you on on its own or do you need to already be in the mood? Farting can turn me on in an instant like a switch

Do you have any other digestion-related kinks? Ooh so many. Burps, piss (I think that counts), scat, and vomit (but not for real, just in my head). Even general stomach issues like bloating and indigestion and even heart burn are hot

Do you have any other kinks that you enjoy being paired with farting? Farts and burps, farts and bloating, farts and scat, farts and spanking, farts and tying up, ugh the possibilities are endless

Is farting a must in sexual situations or is it more of a bonus? It's sort of a must but I don't want it to be. I try to get off to regular stuff with my partners (we still do farts stuff too), and I do but its hard bc its always been farts I've touched myself to. But I'm willing to change. Besides, not using farts helps me last longer

Have you ever acted on your desires IRL in an explicitly kinky manner? With myself? Yes. Not yet with my partners though

Is having a partner who can fart well important to you? Not really but it's nice when you have it, like I do right now hehe

Does anyone you personally know know about your kink? Two of my friends, one I still talk to. They're both really accepting. I think I told my sister but she was probably so traumatized, she forgot lol

Has anyone ever noticed/suspected your kink without you telling them about it? Not yet. Thank god though. Maybe my sis is getting suspicious but I'm not sure (if she really did forget)

Is there any media that you enjoy specifically for farts in it? Not a specific media in particular (I imagine my faves farting more if they're from medias with no fart jokes) but I do like looking at fart comps on youtube, mostly from cartoons

Do you have a favorite farting-related content creator (on tumblr or otherwise)? For fart models, I love Love Rachelle, Selena Loca, Santana Redd, Emma Ink, and Natasha F. For artists, there's too many to list but I love a lot of twitter artists like Carafalsa, ProButtonMasher, GasTank, and Solloros. For people on Tumblr, I love @sweetbubblies for their ocs. They include a lot of hyperfart stuff and I think they got me into diaper stuff. @grossgeck is awesome too. They're extra weird like me and it makes me feel less alone in this community

Would you ever consider recording your farts? Oh I recorded SO MANY of my farts and posted some here.

Are you a shy farter or do you fart freely? Depends who I'm around. Around fam? Strangers? Friends? no. Best friends and lovers? Yes but I get a little hesitant with best friends hehe

Are you good at farting? Uhhh well my farts smell bad and some can be like 5 seconds so I guess I'm good. But I'm EXCELLENT at pumped farts. I can fart on command and I can suck in a lot of air

Do you prefer farting yourself or hearing others fart? Either way I'm happy lol

Have you ever gotten into trouble for farting in a place or situation where you shouldn’t have? Ooh not yet but I have fantasized about trying that in a public setting somewhere. I am into humiliation after all

Have you ever gotten turned on by farting in an inconvenient place or situation? Again, no, but it turns me on to think about

Have you ever tried to make yourself gassy in order to fart? Oh I kinda do it all the time! Whether it's with food, chocolate milk (my love) and pumping air in me

Do you have any favorite foods or drinks for encouraging farting? Spicy foods, leafy green veggies, super greasy foods, and chocolate milk/regular milk

What’s your biggest fantasy involving farting? Me and both my current partners are gassy and they can both fart freely around me, but I have to have a plug in me until they say I'm allowed to pull it out. If we're having sex, I'm not allowed to take it out until I cum. Maybe they make me take it out in public so I'm forced to fart in front of a bunch of people. Or they need to be in the hot tub after sex. But there's no hot tub. But hey, there's enough bubbles in my system to make it one

[feyhunter78]

Hi dear Meg! I'm so glad I found someone who writes for TROP ♡

I truly love elrond, this sweet boi, and really enjoyed your writings for him (: at first I was quite careful since I see lotr!elrond (almost) entirely as a dad and not as a romantic option, mostly because if him, Celebrían and their children but honestly they seemed to have killed off Celeborn so... no Celebrían? XD

Anyways, it may surprise you but I wanted to ask, if you're writing for Gil-Gaddy too? Uhhh, I already loved him in lotr and god forbid me from telling anyone about my tiny crush on Mark Ferguson haha XD

If yed, I'd love to ask for a Gil-Galad x fem!oc 💕 I'm quite the sucker for opposite looking couples, so oc with ash blonde/silver hair? And size difference? Hod I love tall men haha

Maybe she's the daughter of oropher, visiting Lindon.

And... yeah... I wouldn't be mad (absolutely not) if you include some smut? Intense and passionate is my favorite if someone asks hehe

Much love to you ♡

Maddie

Maddie!!! Thank you so much for this request! I must admit I don't know Gil-galad's character really well, but I tried my best! I've got a short but sweet married couple facing the in laws fic for you! As for smut, since I don't know his character I didn't add any, but I recommend the wonderful @starlady66 who has a more than a few Gil-galad smuts on her blog!!!!

The Queen's Father

You opened your eyes, humming contently as lithe fingers combed through your ashen hair.

“My love, we must meet the others for breakfast.” Gil-galad’s steady voice, raspy from sleep, filled your ear as he pressed a kiss to your cheek.

“You are the High-King, you can miss a breakfast.” You groaned, throwing an arm over your eyes.

He chuckled, the sound deep and rich, vibrating in your bones. “Yes, but your father will be there, and I fear he still looks upon me with disfavor.”

You removed your arm and sat up, fixing your husband with an annoyed look. “My father is a fool if he is still upset that we married, his daughter is queen, what more could he want?”

You weren’t annoyed with Gil-galad, never with him, but with your father, who was still upset you hadn’t married the son of his closest friend.

Gil-galad kissed your temple. “I do not know, but we shall face his ire together.”

You sighed and slipped from your bed, dressing quickly and smiling at your husband in the mirror. He always towered over you, it made you feel safe and protected.

You took his hand and pressed it to your lips after he placed your circlet upon your head. “I will never let you face him alone.”

You strode hand in hand down to breakfast, where your father was waiting, along with a few other elflords and ladies. You greeted your father, then took your seat next to your husband.

As everyone began eating, you started to relax. Perhaps your father would not make a scene this morning.

“Gil-galad, I must ask you, why does my daughter look so exhausted. Are you running her ragged because you cannot perform your duties without the aid of others?”

You all but slammed down your drink and leveled a glare at your father.

Your husband was much calmer. “Perhaps y/n seems so tired because she works so diligently in her own duties as queen.” He took a sip of his drink. “Though I do not see this exhaustion, she looks as radiant as the day we married.”

“Thank you, dear husband.” You said, smiling at him, and intertwining your fingers with his. “Gil-galad is right, Ada, I have tired myself out in service of our people.”

Your father grumbled but backed off, and Gil-galad gave you a soft smile.

“How is Ambe? I noticed she did not make the trip with you.”

“Your ambe is well, she was preoccupied with the birth of your niece.”

“A girl, how lovely.” You said, a bright smile on your face. You would have to send your brother’s family a gift of congratulations soon.

“We shall send a gift, for the child and her mother, soon.” Your husband declared, reading your mind.

Your father’s expression softened. “That would be most welcomed.”

Breakfast was cleared, and you promised your father you would walk with him.

“I will return as soon as I see him to his quarters.” You promised your husband, going up on your toes to kiss him.

He chuckled and bent down, so you could reach him, and connected your lips.

Kissing Gil-galad was always a breathtaking experience, his skilled lips and pleasant taste always brought heat to your face and caused your heart to race. He pressed a soft kiss to the corner of your lip before righting your circlet and releasing you to your father.

tagged by @sylvienerevarine for this tag game... i don't know who has already been tagged but i will tag @druidx and @redyn-nerevarine and anyone else who feels like it

How many works do you have on AO3?

91.. i have no idea how it got to that amount. most of them are like 500 words though. just bits. i also have 33 on fanfiction dot net but haven't posted there in years and years

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

146,927. which means i'm somehow significantly under my fanfiction dot net count (232,934!!) despite the 91 fics. damn what was i on back in 2015

3. What fandoms do you write for?

well you all know about the elder scrolls ones. have dabbled in dragon age and mass effect, but don't often publish what i write for those. my 2015 obsessions were merlin and sherlock and occasionally atlantis but they're pretty much abandoned

4. What are your top five fics by kudos?

cannot really answer as i got hit a few times by the kudos bot. the formation of a courier is incontestably up there. as is where were you when the dragonborn came, but i've a feeling people accidentally end up on that one thinking the title is uhhh innuendo

5. Do you respond to comments?

i try to... i don't get too many and idk what to reply other than 'thanks! :)' though

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

an ultimatum and well laid plans maybe... i can't really say that my fics have endings. since they're mostly scraps and i never finish longer fics

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

see above... i try to end things happily but since i'm writing fics from the middle it's not always obvious from what i publish

8. Do you get hate on fics?

thankfully not. except an instance of delphine hate that wasn't very favourable to the fic either. and that one time way back when, when someone criticised a fic for being unrealistic. because the count of monte cristo is so realistic

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

i do not. the only time i tried, it ended up extremely non-explicit anyway. and i deleted it off ao3 because it was cringe but it was getting tons of hits from people probably expecting more. i used to tag my fanfiction dot net ones with 'this will not contain smut or anything like that' because i didn't realise that smut was what people were mainly looking for

10. Do you write crossovers? If so, what's the craziest one you've written?

i began a merlin/sherlock crossover that got quite popular but which i never finished... the crazy thing ended up being not so much the crossover but the existence of a magical teleporting conservative mp

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

i damn well hope not

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

i used to translate my own fics into french... i no longer have the translations but knowing how bad i was at french in 2015, i doubt they were readable. maybe i ought to try again... since nobody else appears to be doing so hehe

13. Have you ever co-written a fic?

no although i have written crack fics with my sibling that would never make any sense to anyone including us

14. What's your all-time favourite ship?

i'm not really in this for the shipping... my oc victoria hatteras and her platonic soulmate harbert brown will always be my otp but i do not publish anything about them. am however fond of julienne and marcurio (all the book smarts and none of the street smarts), and lunette and ilmeni (which despite lunette's cavalier attitude to romance, i am determined will be perfect)

15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

occasionally i still get requests to continue the aforementioned merlin-sherlock crossover. but that's probably not happening. really the answer is 'literally any of them' since i don't remember the last time i finished a multi-chapter fic

16. What are your writing strengths?

uhhh uniqueness. chaos punctuation. sounding like i died two hundred years ago

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

anything actually happening that involves like movement and stuff

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in a fic?

i've not thus far felt like i needed to, at least for tes. if a fic called for french or german, then i'd try. if it called for anything else, i wouldn't trust myself or google translate enough. idk how readers would feel about that... i already invent words from french sometimes

19. First fandom you wrote for?

in terms of published works, it seems to be doctor who. in terms of generally... hell probably still doctor who, i was obsessive when i was younger

20. Favourite fic you've written?

all and none of them. the aforementioned formation of a courier... and the imperial city irregulars, that was a good one. i seem to be more consistent and less cringe where comedy is concerned than more serious fics

For the fanfic writer ask game: 6, 10, 11, 17, 29, 48, 63, 94

oh wow!! so many!!! thank you so much! ♥️ i will answer these lovely questions below the cut 👍

6 ~ do you have any kind of consistent writing schedule or just hoping for the best?

tbh it’s mostly hoping for the best. in general, i can usually squeeze some time out from like 8pm-11:30pm. sometimes if life is forgiving, i can get a generous 4pm-midnight window, but usually i’m so exhausted from all my morning shenanigans, i don’t do a whole lot of writing in these free-time chunks. i’m hoping by august i’ll have some free mornings and i can get back into my full groove again!

10 ~ at what point in the process do you come up with titles, and how easy or hard is that for you?

there are two options. either i come up with the title immediately as i’m writing it, (01746, a gift and a curse, happy belated, king of karaoke, negotiations). the other option is staring at the empty title box in the ao3 posting form for an hour trying to magically come up with a title. (broken fingers hold tightest, broken hearts bleed brightest, donut miss your chance!, rise & shine, temptation, torment and tangerines). seems like i have more trouble naming newer stories for some reason. 🤷

11 ~ what’s something neat you’ve learned while doing research for something you were writing? also, how much do you worry about doing research in general?

research is pretty important to me, because i like to blend the mystical magical world of one piece with some realism. (like what if drinking milk didn’t solve all our health problems) recently i learned cocoyashi was inspired by a part of indonesia, and the coldest that area gets is around sixty degrees fahrenheit, or about 15.5 degrees celsius! law and rosi are gonna roast their north blue asses off 🔥

17 ~ what is your favorite line you’ve ever written?

what a cruel question 😝 i’m giving you a few answers! in terms of dialogue, in my original series, i had someone proclaim, “Why do we have to die to be loved?” and i quite like that line. for exposition, i think it might be, “It wasn’t so gummy, it wasn’t so strained, the muscles in his neck were relaxed and the apples of his cheeks weren’t threatening to split through the skin.” from the donquixote bros event. OR. i also like, “His brother lurked in the bloody pulp along the gumline of those smiles.” i’m gonna cut myself off now, i could keep going for a while 🤪

29 ~ give us a spoiler of one of your stories.

hmmm trying to think of something shiny and new that you might not have seen me mention in the villain server… i’ll spoil a wip too, since you’ve read a lot of my posted stories! in sublime > perish, gladius is going to lose one parent at a time. so he can wallow in the misery of missing one before i kill the other. and then i’ll take his memories. 🥰

48 ~ do you reread your own stories?

y-yes. i write fanfic very self-indulgently. whatever ships/stories i can’t find, i write. so i do end up rereading them when i’m craving that trope. and that’s when i find all my typos.

63 ~ what’s the best insult you’ve read in a fic?

oh dear. this is a hard one. uhhh. lemme go through the ol bookmarks.

i really love this exchange between doflamingo and croc in crowbar’s “Product Demonstration”:

“Let’s take war, for example. Who won the last war in your neck of the woods?”

“Wars aren’t something that can be won.”

“That’s a bleeding-heart answer if I ever heard one.” She drew up, affronted. “No, no, don’t worry, you’re still an asshole.”

94 ~ do you prefer dialogue or description?

dialogue! i am sucker for dialogue. i’ve got full fictional conversations going on in my head. i used to have a notebook when i was in middle school that i filled with these random edgy conversations between ocs. that’s how i got into writing! and now i’m writing obscure fanfic with plenty of dialogue! XD

thank you so so much for all the asks!! i feel like this was some sort of celebrity interview, hehe 😎

[richtofens-hips]

sona and her besties

Thats a man dw in the land of ancient China the men were prettier than the women 😃

More men... just doodling their designs first before actually finalizing it hehe

FEMALE DRAGON PRINCESS 🔥🔥

I love making stories but never writing them down to make them solid

My Oh My by Camilla Cabello inspired me to just doodle uhhh this whatever this is

My taste in men is extraordinary

Simping over my own ocs dude what-

(Men in glasses. Idk. Love me a blind man. Nerdy ones. Scrawny ones. Dumb ones. Don't really have a type now that realize it 🤔)

Yes, I actlike a child. I once saw my friend and said "what's up homeski?!" And the teacher beside me laughed. I apologized, saying I have the energy of a 5 year old. She said "no that's OK! Thats good!"

People wanna grow up so early but not me screw that I'm staying young thx

[mayspicer]

Hell yeah you're answering some of those (if you want to), it's fun! 2, 11, 28, 44, 51 for the pink bean

Aww yiss. If anyone is interested, this is about Cayden, who can be found in my posts tagged as his name or more generally pathfinder.

This is gonna be long because I'm unable to write short answers. Also I have no idea how to add a read more on mobile, so uhhh, have fun xD

2. What was your original concept for this character? How did playing them change that concept?

The whole creation story is full of randomness tbh. I wanted to try playing a face and had a rogue half prepared for that, but the GM told me to maybe not play a rogue again, so I changed my mind to a sorcerer. A friend was creating his first character ever then, and he wanted to be a typical wizard, so I looked for less combat focused options for my sorcerer and we lacked a healer, so I found that there is a unicorn sorcerer bloodline that knows healing spells and has some nice healing powers. This was my first sorcerer, so I looked for guides and turns out that gnomes are super recommended. I decided on looks and even gender when having fun in heroforge. Thought it will be super funny if a gnome that's gonna be unicorn themed will also be pink and a man. It's a little freaky how he became a serious character that took over my entire brain for more than a year now, considering how he came to existence. Gnomes, man, it must be something to them, this shouldn't've worked. I'm so glad it did tho. Even his name was super randomly chosen, as back then the party was supposed to be 3 people with others joining later, and we thought it would be hilarious if we make some kind of acronym from character names. The word "CYC" (tit would be the same in English ig) appeared, so I looked for male names beginning with C. Found Caden, thought it sounded nice, so I told the GM it's gonna be it. And he went ooooh if you spell that differently, he could be named after a god of beer in Pathfinder. I liked the spelling better, I liked the connotations, boom xD

As for his character, I remember that he was supposed to be more crazy (whatever that means, my first sketches are more mischievous looking), but after writing his backstory and actually starting playing, I think he just stayed pretty much the same. Also the rest of the party put the bar pretty high for the craziness/unchainedness level, so I automatically assumed a more mature approach to compensate lol

I wish I was better at roleplay tho, because it's really hard to try to come across as someone who is by design comfortable in most situations, talks smoothly and is confident and flirty when I'm not and I don't even know how people like this are supposed to act, so I can't even try to pretend hhhh

I just hope that the rest of my group knows how I want him to be, cos we don't really talk much about character stuff outside the game (I wish we did, but it appears that I'm the only one who's been raised in the whole OC culture and I don't even feel very comfortable around some of the people outside of the game hhhh)

11. if they have a pet or animal companion, how do they spend time with them? if they don’t have one, what sort of animal would they be interested in raising, if any?

In one of the first sessions we saved a young black cat, so Cayden had a pet for a few weeks. Named the cat Rybiarz xd (Fisher?) because he said he liked fish (speak with animals hehe). Cayden left the cat in the inn we were staying in, because the inn keeper became our friend and the cat liked it here, so Cayden decided he's not gonna drag the poor cat along with him on the two month journey and who knows what next. If he could have a pet, I see two ways. Either some magical beast, lika a faerie dragon (not really a pet tho, cos they're sentient, but I mean the vibe), something that would be comfortable being on the move, possibly something matching his own energy, or even helping him seem even more attractive to others. The other option is some kind of animal that can swim (and climb?), because the boy Can't Swim. The last session ended in the middle of combat, where Cayden spent 3/4 of it under water, as the fight was with a water elemental which raised the water level and submerged everyone. And this was not the first time something like this happened xD And with him being so smol, he starts having problems when there is like 0.5m of water and if the water covers him, it boils down to waiting for someone to fish him out. A trained animal could solve this problem xD

As for spending time with the pet, it would probably be just playing with it and chilling together. Maybe if it was some special creature, he would be taking it with him to some social situations and play harmless tricks on others, or try to impress others with it, depending on the situation and mood.

28. do they collect anything?

He currently finally got his hands on a Mnemonic Vestment he's been saving gold for, so now he's focused on collecting as many magic scrolls (and possibly spellbooks, generally written magic) as possible, because the Vestment lets him cast one spell per day from such a source using his own spell slot AND not using up the scroll itself. This is super good, because Cayden as a sorcerer has a lot of spell slots, but a very short list of spells known. A new era just begun for him hahah

44. what lies do they tell others?

This is a hard one. I'm not great at creating characters that have many aspects to them. Cayden is pretty honest anyway, and talkative, so every one of his friends probably knows almost everything about his past and about him generally. He had to tell a pretty serious lie in the past and he only confessed to maybe two people (all just in backstory). It was about how the father of his first girlfriend died. He was killed by a unicorn, when he tried to kill it for its horn. The father was hunting magical creatures in secret, so his family didn't know anything, but he wanted Cayden to help him with the "business", as the relationship with his daughter was becoming serious. Why he thought it was a good idea is a mystery, as Cayden's family's past involving a friendship with a unicorn was pretty well known. Cayden helped the unicorn escape, but not before the other gnome shot at it with a crossbow. The unicorn charged and impaled the man with its horn before teleporting away. After spending the night crying his eyes out and trying to make sense of this whole situation, Cayden brought back the father's body back to the family and lied that the man was killed by someone with a spear who tried to mug them, before he managed to scare the attackers away using magic tricks.

I think, more generally, hypothetically, Cayden would lie about his own well being, for example if it meant others wouldn't waste time on him and would be able to save themselves in a critical situation. He would lie to make others feel better if he knew there was no way to help them and if he knew that showing confidence and being optimistic would raise morale of everyone else.

As for non serious lies (I'm not even sure it counts for the question), sometimes his gnome nature comes through, and he's tempted to just mess with someone by telling obvious nonsense information when an opportunity arises, or creating illusions. He doesn't have a heart to leave someone confused for too long though, so most of the time he clears thing up pretty fast.

And of course he tells lies in typical adventurer stuff situations. False names, motivations, all that. "I'm so sorry for shooting color spray in your face I panicked, I just didn't want you to cuff me, I'm on your side I swear, I want to help deal with those people demolishing your holy stairs, I won't be able to do that while magically handcuffed!" *Insane bluff check* *promptly escapes the moment he sees an opportunity*

Currently we're trying to infiltrate some kind of a drug cartel criminal underground, so there is a lot of bluffing involved xD

51. what element of their backstory are you proudest of?

The elements my GM basically wrote for me xD

I'm not the strongest writer, not even moderately acceptable writer, so I needed a little help. We all generated backstory events when creating characters and wrote based on what we got. I couldn't think of a conflict that involved telling a lie motivated by love. This is the one above, about the unicorn. The other backstory element is to rationalize how Cayden got out of his country that was surrounded by enemy nations currently at war I think and travelled through almost half the continent to the Pathfinder lodge in Absalom. I decided he's going to go by water, sailing near appropriately named Isle of Terror. Sure the name is not nice and there are some terrible stories surrounding the place, but near the shore there are real people actively looking for vessels trying to cross the lake. Turns out Isle of Terror is no joke and during a terrible negative energy storm everyone from the crew died, if not by the storm, then finished off by a shadowy creature, and Cayden barely survived this only thanks to hiding in a barrel, and plot armor I guess (it's a backstory after all, and a random event due to my decisions to go this route).

Other than that, I kinda like the part about Cayden even having the bloodline powers he has. One of his ancestors/parents had to have some kind of closer contact with a unicorn and I decided it's gonna be his mother. Before he was born, his country was at war with basically every neighbour and Cayden's mother was helping refugees by hiding them in a dense forest near the border. She impressed a unicorn living there with her determination and pure heart and they formed a strong bond with the unicorn protecting it's forest against unwanted invaders, but allowing shelter for the needing. During those efforts Cayden's mother met his father and after the war, Cayden was born. Later, when he grew up, it turned out that some of that unicorns magic/blessing passed onto his mother and became apparent in him.

I know it's cheesy, but that's about the peak of my writing/storytelling skills xD

For someone that is 52 years old, my boy has a surprisingly uneventful backstory, with 40 years of living peacefully in his village with both parents, having a traumatic experience, and then going out to see the world, hearing about Pathfinder Society on his first big stop and making it his dream to join them. I described his journey basically by coming up with partners he had romantic relationships with along the way and elaborating a little what happened during these stops/stages of the journey. Now I face the joy of meeting this characters as NPC's one day, oof, I didnt think this through. We even met that first girlfriend already. (it was ok, but super stressful, but also super sweet at the end)

[absurditii]

I’m getting notes on some old drabbles I wrote ages ago but I’m gonna have to delete them no matter the quality of writing bc the person I wrote them for turned out to be a weirdass proshipper

I don’t vibe with that so uhhh I’m stealing the scenarios now and rewriting them as my own ocs that fit hehe

[sparklestardesigns]

Any tips for designing your own sparkle cat? Seeing your designs makes me wanna have a sparkle cat oc but I have no idea where to start

UWA IM HONORED TO BE ASKED FOR ADVICE ON THIS,,,, makes me so happy that ur wanting to make a sparkle cat oc they're super fun :]

this is gonna be long so just tap on the keep reading to see the whole thing! if u dont wanna see me ramble then prob best to skip the keep reading part lol

BUT for my opinion, i think it depends on the certain character! with having really no limit on what you can do with a sparkle cat in general, i like to go for a specific vibe yknow? like, with maybe names it can also help grasp some sort of vibe which can also help lead to a type of personality or even "aesthetic" in a way that fits them!

for example like uhmmm lets say i had a little character named hootwatcher! well, hoot being from owls, i can refrence a type of owl shape for the body and maybe go brighter reddish/orange colors for the character as well as most owls are more brown depending on the type of owl but its sorta a majority and big ol eyes since they're named watcher for a reason lol or the colors can go off of personality! maybe hootwatcher is really nervous so they can have a more purple based design!

a more. idk i think difficult idea is when it comes when its not like animals? like real characters such as swiftpaw or frecklewish they're more tedious! but i can give an example of that too

so uhhh gonna say i have a character named like. sneezeflake! because theres no animals related to this, i cant go based off an animal, but! this is where personality can really help or even sketching them out in general can also give me a type of vibe of course it may not stick to the final reference but its still helpful to see the options!

maybe sneezeflake is very jumpy with a lotta worried, with sneezes being sudden! or even with flake they can be very uneasy about decisions, with lots of uncertainty about different morals or even their own clans morals/their own morals! with that you can make different colors that can give that vibe off, and poses also help with it too so don't be afraid to take advantage of using crazy poses to help give expressive personalities to characters :]

REGARDLESS, there is so many options for a character, it doesn't even need to be based off a name or personality really, it's just whatever fits them too! it's whatever you think fits best for them, and i hope this helps for ya anon :]

[also idm hootwatcher or sneezeflake being used for the character idea, as it was just examples so if anyone wanna use them as inspo or smth then be my guest hehe]

[razorblade180]

OC test: Flex

[Not in the literal term. All the boys here will simply show off their style and charm in an attempt to steal some hearts and blush some faces.]

Kovu:So in other words...

Sparrow:Eye candy. Crank up that testosterone the best way you know.

Jael:A bunch of shirtless guys sounds boring.

Eliza:You heard the woman. Be bold and unbuckle those pants!

Jael:No! Not at all what I meant!

Jacquelyn: *turning away* (Probably for the best if I don’t witness this.)

Carmine and Valerie:....

Yujin:*red* Doesn’t this seem shameful?

Summer and Veronica:Shhhhhh

Veronica:Oh yeah, should we get the guy out of tree then?

Carmine:What guy?

Veronica:The guy I smell in the tree. He’s been there awhile. He has the scent of a bird.

An eerie silence falls amongst the group. Carmine slowly turns towards the tree, shooting a death glare. She takes a massive lunge towards it. Aero immediately emerged from the top, flying out of reach from Carmine’s very lethal hands.

Carmine:Who told you that you can be here, huh Aero!?

Aero:Oh quit with the theatrics. I know you’re happy to see me.

Carmine:Say that within arms reach!

Aero:No...

Nick:Who that?

Summer:And what’s his number?

Kovu:That would be Aero. He probably snuck in when I was let inside. His semblance has a way of catching people off gaurd, making it easy to pull a fast one on them. Hi Aero.

Aero:Hey goodie goodie. Mind doing some good and pulling the thorns off of this rose.

Kovu:Carmine, he’s not gonna leave. Might as well suck it up and let him be.

Carmine:I’ll let him be injured and begging for mercy. That’s what I’ll let him be.

Yujin:Wasn’t there supposed to be a test going on?

Eliza:Well one guy has already started.

Yujin:What? Who-oh my goodness! Tenzen! *red*

The street performer had removed his shirt when nobody was looking, then out on an opened hoodie. Tenzen’s abs were on full display with his broad, strong chest. His pants were replaced with shorts that showed off his toned calves. He put up the fox ear hood and casually drunk a water bottle. As usual, Tenzen looked playful, yet overwhelming attractive. It didn’t help that his shorts hung a little lower than they should’ve.

Tenzen:What?! Too stupid?

Eliza:The only stupid thing here is how your body looks like a mannequin. I know dancing makes you fit but sheesh.

Tenzen:It’s the martial arts.

Veronica:Nice.

Sparrow:Oh we’re starting? I guess I can show a bit of skin. After all, a sailor isn’t a sailor if he isn’t drenched and showing off.

Under these rules, Sparrow felt a little bad for the others. He was the guy here that could be considered truly grown. That maturity came with knowledge in many things. Charm was one of them. His hands pulled off his shirt fluidly. A stroke of his hand running through his hair not only showed off his trained body, it flexed his biceps. Unlike Tenzen, Sparrow had a body that was bulked up. Muscles were beefed up and made to form a temple that was hard as stone. His diabolical brown scruff and brown tanned skin gave Sparrow a rugged look that Jacquelyn sneak a peak and Eliza gulp the moment his other hand casually hung from his right pocket. Even Carmine was surprised by the older man.

Carmine:Wow, a shirt hid all that? You bench logs or something?

Sparrow:The military doesn’t train weaklings you know?

Eliza:(Eight years. Just give about eight years Sparrow.)

Kovu:My, my, that looks fun. But not as fun as that white haired cutie.

Summer:M-Me!?

Kovu:*flies down* I know a face like that anywhere. Who would’ve thought a Schnee would have such kind eyes? Not an icy glare at all. *rubs her face* You got a name?

Summer:I, uhh, yeah! I mean who doesn’t. Hehe wow you’re really umm close. Wait, my name! You’re probably still waiting for-

Nick:It’s Summer; and if you’re looking for the Schnee icy glare then look my way.

The chill of a glare sharper than any sword pierced right through Aero as he saw the white haired boy. Yeah, he’s definitely a Schnee. He respectfully stopped touching Summer and stood before Nick.

Aero:Cold, dagger like glare, white hair, and short. Yeah, you’re Weiss’s kid alright. How cute...

Nick:Call me short again and I’ll cut you down.

Carmine:As much as I would love to see that, Aero might be a little much for ya unprepared. Case in point, he’s not in front of you.

Nick raised an eyebrow and blinked. In that moment, Aero was gone. The boy was standing by Eliza, pinching her cheeks.

Eliza:Ow! How did you-

Aero:You’re a familiar looking face. Between your hair color and skin tone I almost thought Mona was here. I bet-

Carmine:No.

Aero:Well that’s the end of that I guess.

Eliza:Stop pinching me!!!!

Sienna:He’s a bit of a weird one.

Jael:The word is rude. He’s giving me a headache. Not to mention dragging out this test.

Aero:Hmm? What, the sexy thing. I thought that was over. I mean I’m here and everything. Y’all fighting for second place?

Sparrow:Hmph.

Veronica:That’s confidence you don’t see regularly.

Valerie:Call it like it is. He just shit talked every guy here into bringing their A-game.

Kovu:Oh Aero, you dummy. If you wanted me to play with you so badly then you just had to ask nicely...

The air in the room quickly changed. The two boys faced each other and smirked playfully. Kovu dragged his sharp finger nail down his shirt, tearing it. Aero laughed and proceeded to remove his own. Apparently this was a normal thing between the two. The tall boys got closer until Kovu was able to push Aero gently against a wall, wings spread out. Kovu was taller by an inch and buffer. His torso was well defined along with his chest, but the main focus was his arms on each side of Aero. Not only were they big, but each muscle group was blatantly visible. The boys eager eyes were focused in on his cocky younger friend.

Aero casually propped up his foot on the wall and put his hands in his pockets. Aero was no where near as bulky as the beast before him, but he cut to perfection in more ways then one. Faded scar ran across is toned body. The small black gages and wind swept hair only elevated his attitude. Everyone but Carmine were confused about what they were watching.

Valerie:Ummm are they about to make out?

Eliza:*red* I don’t know....but I want to.

Veronica:I think they might do more than make out.

Summer:(I’d pay to be in the middle of this beef sandwich.)

Yujin:Carmine, please explain.

Carmine:Nothing to explain. This happens sometimes. I don’t know why.

Tenzen:KISS!!!

Aero:They’re totally looking more at me than you.

Kovu:Bitch you wish you were this sexy. Don’t let those little girls in Vacou hype you up too much. They’re easy.

Aero:Don’t talk about your cousin like that.

Carmine:....

Everyone:....

Carmine:.....

Sienna:Y’all fu-

Carmine:YES, MOVING ON NOW. Lucas, take off your pants or something!

Lucas:Nobody wants that.

Sienna and Summer:Well...

Lucas:I am not taking my pants off.

Jael:Wet t-shirt. Then we can put everything behind us.

Jacquelyn:You can try and enjoy this a little sweetie.

Jael:Make this a women challenge and I’d be-... wait, I’d have to participate in that. God this sucks.

Lucas.Tenzen, pass me a water bottle.

Eager to please, Tenzen tosses two. Lucas caught both midair and poured them right onto his face; his white tank becoming completely drenched in the process. The fabric clung to his body, pressing against every crease, every conceivable worked out muscle. The others looked amazing, but Lucs might as well be photoshopped. Was fat even on his body! His back looked strong and legs even more so. Lucas’s hair stuck to his face and he let out a agitated groan. Despite that, it actually made him more appealing to Eliza. Others were admittedly distracted by his body to even notice his face. A xylophone could be played on a body like that.

Tenzen:Damn, I thought I was in shape before today.

Carmine:Aren’t you a shit in?

Lucas:I can still work out, and no. I just don’t deal with people or feel bad about staying in indefinitely.

Jael:A shut in!

Jacquelyn:That’s like...the definition.

Aero:Eh, not bad I guess.

Lucas:Little boy, I can snap you like a twig. Don’t get snippy with me.

Aero:Oooo feisty. Well if we’re done here-

Yujin:Hold on. Nick hasn’t gone yet.

Nick:Can you shut up!!!!

Yujin:Oh, hehe, my bad. I thought you’d be excited?

Nick:Why? I mean...sigh what’s the point? Not in the mood to embarrass myself.

Kovu:What?

Aero:Yeah that’s a smart move. I mean look at him compared to the rest of us. It’s like night and day in here.

Carmine:Aero!

Nick:He’s right. No real muscles, strong features, facial hair, scars, height... just a shrimpy sixteen year old with cash. *Smiles* Honestly I never really seen much good about m-

Valerie:Oh give me break. Do you really think any guy could hold a candle to you!? You’re caring, quirky, driven, and humble to a fault. Nick you’re so-

Nick:*wide eyed*....

Valerie:*red*Ummm y-you get the point. So don’t even think about discrediting yourself.

Nick:I uhhh appreciate the compliments, but those traits are exactly a flex or considered sexy.

Veronica:Lies!!! What’s sexier than a caring young man!

Nick:Abs.

Eliza:Oh for the love of-you’re all ridiculous.

She marches over to Nick and grabs him by the collar. Her hand rises to slick his hair back to clearly show of his beautifully tired eyes and gentle face, unmarked by anything but except self inflicted stress. It’s a shame he wasn’t feeling competitive. He may not know it, but that always captured a room. Eliza took off his vest and unbuttoned the top two buttons of his dress shirt. The crowd was left stunned by the simple transformation. He looked more regal than usual, yet casual.

Eliza:Sexy doesn’t mean naked dummy. And as far as physical traits go...*red* there’s a reason all the girls flock to you. You’re...annoyingly handsome. Some might even say pretty.

Nick:*blushes*

Eliza:And then you do that! Can we agree Nick wins and move on!?

Everyone:Yeah.

Aero:I guess I’ll take second.

Lucas:You mean third.

Kovu:He actually meant fourth.

Aero:Rude.

Carmine:Good.

while i wait for back-burner’s next chap i recently found the rival!tae story and started stalking about it.. had me crying! NO CAP!! these are just my opinions, they’re freely living in my mind so i thought i would share 😭 uhhh i think rival!tae and oc shouldn’t end up together even after the redemption arc you’re “planning” off hehe, i thought abt the end like, when tae wanted to meet his kid, he witnessed oc ends up with another man that gave his surname to the kid and they’re a happy fam, it’s like a rebut to tae’s lines “Unless you tell everyone it’s someone else’s,” and “If you decide to keep them, don’t call them a Kim.” but the suffering and tension and !!!ANGST!!!! between tae and oc before that shouldn’t be forgotten 😭😭 bc we’re practically living for pain in this blog

rival!tae, the other satanic angst companion to back-burner 🤣

honestly, you're so right, i feel like the redemption arc for tae would have to consist of him reincarnating and fighting wars and winning to redeem himself for the shit he said 😭 that was my own fault for making him such a douche LOL

but the fic is currently on standby as i have back-burner as my priority atm!!

this blog really does bring pain and im so sorry for that... i remember when I used to write pure fluff...those were the days
