#what do you MEAN he's acting like he and stan have known each other their entire lives??

[crackedhrglass]

despite alex's original plan for jimmy snakes (being "cursed, ghost rider style") my personal hc will always be that he is normal and completely detached from any supernatural weirdness and anomalies because i think it fits better with where i see him in stan's life (especially compared to ford).

BUT. the thought of stan flirting with a sexy cursed biker has so much potential for jealous, hypocritical ford.

the way i see it, ford can't stand anyone flirting with stan, but if it's a hot mermaid? a tall, spooky ghost biker? a spider babe? it's infinitely worse because in ford's eyes, those are things he can't compete with. ford has always been drawn to the strange and inhuman, even when it comes to romantic/sexual attraction, and he assumes stan must be just as fond of them, even though stan has only ever had eyes for his brother.

stan calls him out on his hypocrisy, considering his relationship history with bill, and ford just rolls his eyes with his arms folded like, "that's different! we were business partners first and foremost! and we were only intimate in my dreams, so it barely counts!" while desperately trying to convince stan that the handsome undead biker that keeps winking at him and ruffling his hair is more dangerous than whatever tf he had with bill.

"So alongside your brilliant songs, you are also well known for having breathtaking performances, with an edge that only ATEEZ can do. Could you elaborate on what exactly goes into creating your unique aesthetic?"

Hongjoong looked around the studio. Him and Yunho, being the resident radio DJs, had been invited onto a show to promote their newest comeback, and talk all things creative arts.

There had been a number of guests before them who he looked up to, from others in the music industry, to visual artists, writers, and designers. This was the way in which he had discovered new changemakers, and got to know those stars he had deemed 'unreachable'. Breathtaking, but there to be admired from a distance.

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the amazing designers and stylists that we work with. Really, without them none of this would be possible and ATEEZ would not be the same."

"Definitely, with each stage and comeback, it seems that there is no end to just how much they, and you, can wow the world. Now, there is a particular fashion house that ATEEZ has been collaborating with recently, could you tell us more about that?"

Now that was an interesting direction to steer into. This was very new on the horizon for ATEEZ, and few media had covered this so far. Hongjoong perked up, forgetting the tranquility that he had to normally adopt for such shows, instead letting himself bask in the rays of his passions.

More specifically, your brand. He had known of its existence, thanks to a serendipitous selection by his stylist, before he had even figured out who the brain behind the art was. He discovered the connection entirely by accident - through this radio show.

You had come in for an interview, much like Hongjoong and Yunho, and sat in one of these seats, telling your story. This same man who was asking them questions, had conversed with you. This appearance was like Hongjoong's little moment to connect with his unreachable star.

You were notoriously elusive, so public appearances were few and far between, and this explained why he had initially not even associated you and the brand together. But as it turned out, that had been the point. The lore was strong in this one.

You had explained during the show that you felt no need for your personal image to be connected to the brand itself, as the garments and those who wore them were the real imagemakers. You had also shown a deep understanding of the subcultures from which you took inspiration and, yourself, followed, diving into legends who had pioneered their popularisation over the decades. In all honestly, that had him hooked, and left him wanting to learn more about how your mind worked.

"Ah yes, more than happy! ARNURI is a brand that we only recently started working with, and could not be more happy. The brand has a world view and prides itself on destroying boundaries in fashion. There is no gender, no size, no limit to what can be achieved. It actually takes inspiration from the variety that is within goth subculture and totally redefines what is meant by luxury. I mean, their slogan is 'lead by antithesis' after all."

He had paraphrased your introductory speech from one of your first exhibitions after you had your big break at one of the Fashion Weeks. It had been a solo show, organised outside of any specific season, every detail paying homeage to what had been advertised as 'embracing the darkness of nature'. For this show, you had scouted models among your friends, among the myriad of citizens of Seoul, and used those same city streets as your catwalk.

Maybe the reason why that particular event had spoken to Hongjoong was because it reminded him of the street busking he had done in his early days. The days of when one risked it all for a future that was not guaranteed, simply because they had hope.

Hongjoong could go on, but Yunho's shift to balancing his head on his hand as he rested his eyes on the captain, and batted his eyelids like a Disney princess made him stop abruptly.

Not that the host had noticed.

"Ah yes! And isn't the name, ARNURI, a play on "Our World?"

"Uh, yeah!" caught off-guard by the follow-up since he was trying to telepathically communicated to Yunho to cut whatever he was trying to do out, he stumbled over his words a little. But it was easy enough to settle back in once he thought of the moment KQ management had shared the official communications between the two companies with him.

"So it was quite funny when the brand approached us for this, they actually quoted our song 'New World'. Really if it were up to me I wouldn't even ask for a portfolio at that point."

"Of course you wouldn't..." Yunho whispered, leaning away from the mic so it barely caught, serving like background noise more than anything.

Hongjoong's head snapped in the other member's direction, but he was met with legendary nonchalance. Truly, the epitome of 'it's not awkward unless you make it awkward'. The guy even raised an eyebrow back at him as though Hongjoong was acting out of line.

"That is magnificent, it was meant to be! Maybe there are some ATINY in the company!"

"Oh we wish!" Yunho interjected, a chuckle escaping him as he glanced in Hongjoong's direction.

"Well, we are very much looking forward to seeing more of these fantastic designs, and the photoshoot that ATEEZ will be doing with ARNURI! Maybe you will be able to create some items together? Can ATINY hope for a new line in the future?"

"Hah, I do enjoy altering clothing and really letting creativity run free, but I am looking forward to the learning-".

"Oh yeah, Hongjoong has been a fan of the brand for quite some time, so finding out that we are now working together is a dream come true!"

Hongjoong lowered his eyes and let his fingers flitter across the table in front of him. There went his opportunity to be all slick and cool. Or was he over-reacting? Again, Yunho was unreadable.

The host then quickly rounded off that segment of the discussion, and cut to an ATEEZ song break, in honour of the guests.

Confirming that the mics were indeed off and he wasn't about to cuss out the entire nation, Hongjoong turned to his 6'1'' headache and hissed:

"Let's keep this about ATEEZ, shall we?"

"Why so serious, bro? Don't you like ARNURI?"

That, he did. The problem was that it was no longer just ARNURI he liked. To borrow some fandom-speak, he had abandoned the 'casual fan' territory, and had found himself quite a few clothing items and accessories-deep, and with a bias.

And since he would rather have Yeosang feeding him sour candy than revealing that he liked ARNURI more than he probably should, any joke in that direction was like an arrow that he felt the desperate need to dodge.

"Yeah, of course I do. I mean, we are working with them right?"

"Riiiight. And you are wearing their jacket. That you literally do not let anyone touch."

"What? I like clothes."

"And you keep said jacket in a plastic bag from the dry cleaner's because suddenly you are Seonghwa two point oh."

"Is that not... normal?"

"Rich to ask for a person who spray paints shoes in the living room at three in the morning."

"Hey I ventilate."

"BY TURNING ON THE EXHAUST VENT IN THE KITCHEN?"

"Shh, Yunho, we good. We can discuss this later-"

"Oh no I like your discomfort shawty talk to me."

Hongjoong pinched the bridge of his nose. This kid with his surprise attacks. Before he could think of a way to get himself out of the hole he dug, the host was suddenly showing that they had thirty seconds before going live. So he settled for:

"We'll continue this conversation later."

"And I chose Seonghwa over you."

"Choosing violence... I swear to-"

"And we are back! I hope you, dear listeners, enjoyed the wonderful-"

You paused the podcast. So, your personal assistant was not kidding when she ran into your office, waving her phone side to side as though she was at a concert, saying that Kim Hongjoong knew a lot more about ARNURI than you assumed.

Really sometimes you thought you hired her not for her abilities as a PA, but because she made you feel a tiny bit more sane. But at the same time, you were one in the same - who was listening to the recorded radio broadcast right after she left your office, reduced to a fit of giggles, sitting in total solitude? You.

Quite the contrast to how you normally were - zoned out due to exhaustion, brutal because that was how your business worked, or totally unreachable because 'the vibe was right and you were in a creative flow state'.

But this was how you got that bread. And had taken ARNURI to new heights. You continuously sacrificed yourself for the art.

There had never been another option for you - ever since you were a kid there was only one thing you were interested in, and that was fashion. You were that one kid who shamelessly stole (and wore) her parents' and siblings' clothing, modifying it so that it looked more like you.

You had 're-designed' your school uniform which had nearly led to your suspension. To this day you were confident you had done the right thing remaking the outfit to being pitch black - it was not your fault that the school had no sense of taste and had chosen such a horrid shade of grey.

And aside from becoming the 'adopted child' of some goth clubs in the city, you had crashed fashion show after fashion show to just see how the legends did it. You were taken by the stark contrast between what was classically accepted and popular on the runways versus the enchanting amalgamation of Victorian era dress, New Romantic, punk and new wave.

You had sworn to yourself that if there was one thing you were going to do, it was be one of the designers to fuse the worlds together. So you gave all you had to this dream. You had completed fashion school, worked in Finland to immerse yourself in the nation's vibrant, borderline mainstream goth scene, and had participated in many art exhibitions and avante garde fashion shows to make yourself known.

This was your calling. Your everything. So when you finally managed to get your brand up and running, bringing your vision to South Korea, you were shamelessly promoting it as best you could. Sending samples, contacting influencers, knocking on all the doors until SOMEONE answered.

And that someone turned out to be a stylist at KQ Entertainment, working with a group called ATEEZ. After a few exchanges on Instagram, they had agreed to use a couple of items, and let the media do the promotional magic.

You were desperate, having not had much success in the country due to difficulty in finding early adopters of the brand, so you agreed.

Turned out it was a much better investment than you had initially thought. A few members had sported ARNURI wear for a fansign, and pictures from the event FLEW around the internet. Eventually, the clothing was discovered, and your site started getting more and more hits.

You assumed it was just a fluke, but that fluke turned into one of the members, who you learned to be Kim Hongjoong, starting to make regular appearances in ARNURI, especially when it was evident that he had the final say in what to wear - airport looks, more casual events... black-clad, supporting you more than he could imagine.

Inadvertently, he had turned into a motivation for you. He had given you the hope that you could reach the stars if you so desired, and so you began to build up.

Season after season, you worked tirelessly, and eventually broke into Seoul Fashion Week. Your daring showcase of your 'ANTITHESIS' collection had gathered a large audience, and soon enough, you had to step into the spotlight, and reveal your identity.

You could remember it as clear as day, 'She Sells Sanctuary' by The Cult roaring in the background as you stepped out, every bit ARNURI, an overnight neo-goth sensation.

As your brand got bigger and bigger, and you were now leading a business of nearly 100 people strong, you had to become colder and more distant. It was a sort of self-preservation, since fashion was not an industry where one could escape criticism and blatant slander, especially when your primary goal was to be yourself.

But that one idol. The one who had agreed to wear your brand, and then continued to do so voluntarily, Kim Hongjoong, still remained special to you. He was your quiet encouragement.

So when you heard from your marketing and communications team that they had scouted out an opportunity to work with ATEEZ, you gave them the green light almost instantly, and much to their surprise, participated in crafting out the perfect proposal.

And when you received an agreement and contracts in response, you needed to excuse yourself and locked yourself in your studio, letting yourself squeal. Just a bit. And then walked back out - she is beauty she is grace.

The first stage of the collaboration was going to be a nice and simple photoshoot. You said simple but you were running around the building like a headless chicken making sure everything was ready.

It was going to be for a new line, 'PHANTASMOS', an ode to phantasmagoria, horror theatre and the portrayal of all things fantastic, strange and ghoulish. And who would be a better group of models than ATEEZ?

As the day approached, Hongjoong was becoming considerably more nervous, and that was only exacerbated by the announcement that you personally would be attending the shoot.

He did not want to come across as a fool of some sort, wanted to be a serious leader, really leave the impression that he meant business. To him, you were elegance itself, a tranquil beauty in black, and he wanted to match that to the best of his ability.

Which was exactly why he had turned his and Seonghwa's dorm into a fabric skip, with shirts, trousers, t-shirts... all of his prized possessions were strewn around the perimeter and occupied nearly every inch of the floor. Hell, even his customised Doc Martens were lying miserably on his bed.

Just as he was contemplating between a blazer with lines of safety pins as decal on the lapels or a classic leather jacket with more zippers than ways his children could annoy him, Seonghwa returned from his trip to the LEGO store.

Hongjoong had never seen every single stage of grief flash across a person's face in one second. But there it was. He gave the eldest member a sheepish grin, subconsciously cowering away closer to the windows - as far away from the evidently not too pleased Seonghwa.

"Kim. Hong. Joong. What kind of fuckery is this?"

"Oh. OH! Amy Winehouse! Yes, big fan, that's uh, that's Me & Mr. Jones right?"

"I will use you as a broom stick Joong."

"Look I just got carried-"

"HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU? PLEASE LET ME KEEP AT LEAST SOME OF MY NERVE CELLS!"

"What's happening- oh Joongie is in trouble~" Mingi poked his head in through the door, making it look as though it was the Teletubbies sun floating above Seonghwa's shoulder.

Hongjoong really wished he could laugh. He really did. But he was afraid he was about to be forced to eat the starship that his roommate bought.

So much for trying to be 'chic' and impressing you. Now he had the goal of making it to the shoot in one piece.

"Mingi. Exit. Now." Seonghwa commanded, jaw clenched, which made the younger member quite literally bolt, slamming the door so hard that the items that were hanging on the stuck-on hooks slid off and fell behind Seonghwa.

There was a mass meeting audible right outside of the room, and a very distinct seagull laugh penetrated the walls. Hongjoong cursed his bad timing. Had he only started early, maybe he would have had time to shove at least some of the items under the bunk so it didn't look too bad.

"Right. You know what. I am zen. I am the calmest of the calm. You take care of others, I take care of you. Right? Now. Wait, you know what I need to just-"

Seonghwa picked up a large pillow off one of the beds, eyed it, looked at Hongjoong once more, and then PUNCHED it with blinding rage, sending it flying right back into the bed.

"Okay now I am fine. Care to explain when you were planning to sort this shit out?"

There was another wave of mumbles outside, to which Seonghwa responded by making the door fly open and shouting out "we are having a VERY IMPORTANT CONVERSATION."

Before closing the door entirely, a quiet comment from Yeosang could be overheard: "they're getting divorced in there," leading to some giggles, and pitter-patter of footsteps away from the door. They probably just chose a slightly different location to camp and snoop.

Hongjoong decided to sink into one of the clothes piles, motioning for Seonghwa to take a seat next to him. He was in a dilemma, unsure of what sort of explanation would be the most effective for Seonghwa. So he just settled for the truth.

"You know the shoot that we are going to do?" he began, rubbing the back of his neck.

"Yes, I do. What, is the aesthetic landfill-chic?" Seonghwa motioned at the explosion over the room.

"No, not at all! Don't even. You have seen the clothing, right?"

"Of course, I wore ARNURI before. Must say, very flattering. And fashionable. That one overcoat made me feel like a vampire prince."

Hongjoong raised an eyebrow, but chose not to comment on that. Seonghwa was Seonghwa, he had his own agenda and his own interpretations.

"Right, so... well, you know I have a lot of ARNURI stuff? It's not just that... I have um... sort of become a... fan? Of the designer? L/N Y/N? She is just... her vision... her style is just... yeah she is great."

"Oh my gosh my boy Kim Hongjoong actually wants to meet someone outside of ATEEZ, this is legendary, I should post this on Universe."

"What in the- hey I meet people! And don't you dare"

"When, mister 'I don't really have many friends' and literally getting jealous over me talking to Minho from Stray Kids?"

"Hey, being a best friend is a responsibility, and you are my best friend!"

"Oh wait... I get it... I don't think you are aiming for friendship here... isn't that right?" a grin started spreading over Seonghwa's face as he looked like he discovered a new planet.

"I am just a fan of hers! Don't twist this!"

"Sure... okay now I get... this," he gave a judgmental side eye to the pile of sweaters that had made their home right by his display cabinet. "You are like a middle schooler before a first date, I swear. This is definitely because she's going to be there, right?"

"You know what? Yes, yes it is. And I might not have had my growth spurt yet but I am not a middle schooler." Hongjoong said, standing up as straight as possible, putting his hands on his hips.

"That's exactly what an angsty middle schooler would say." Seonghwa looked him up and down, stifling a laugh.

"You are on a power trip aren't you?"

"Hell yeah I am, and I will be for the entire shoot and beyond."

"Park Seonghwa why you do this to ME?"

"If you don't want the others to get the details I have an offer."

This made Hongjoong stop on his tracks and retract his 'leader card'. He did not want to lose face in front of the 'teezer crew entirely, so keeping this information in confidence was enticing.

"Yes?"

"First off, clean your shit. And second, I get that spot on the dresser for the Imperial All Terrain Armoured Transport model I've been hunting down."

"First, deal. Second, say that one more fucking time dude I dare you."

"IMPERIAL ALL TERRAIN ARMOURED TRANSPORT, ALSO KNOWN AS THE AT-AT WALKER, IS A FOUR-LEGGED TRANSPORT AND COMBAT VEHICLE USED BY THE IMPERIAL GROUND FO-"

"Did you legit memorise Wikipedia or something?"

"May the force be with you, bitch. Now you clean, I will go chill outside so I don't have an aneurysm because of how you do it. And by the way, I'd pick the leather jacket if I were you. Classic, timeless and looks good."

"Thank you man, you are the best."

"I know, now impress me with how you can make this room spotless."

And with that, Seonghwa left Hongjoong alone in the room. From what he could hear, there was a circus outside, with the other members having gathered around, interrogating about what had just unfolded. but Seonghwa was keeping his word, for now at least. He knew that he did not have to try too hard, since Hongjoong would probably expose himself as soon as he were to see you anyways.

And Seonghwa was more than right. The next day, when ATEEZ arrived to the studio, Hongjoong was very jittery. Alert to any and all people and sounds, he was looking around as if he was expecting someone - well he definitely was. As soon as they stepped into the ARNURI office, he was convinced that you could be around any corner.

The other members were beginning to catch on that this hyung was acting odd, to the point where Yeosang commented on Hongjoong looking like he was playing Alien Isolation in real life. The reference flew right over the leader's head, but he tried his best to tone his Pink Panther-style snooping down.

And instead focus on the many photos that decorated the walls of your house of fashion. Memories of particularly memorable parts of a show, awards, red carpet events... club nights, themed evenings, collaborations... this was your life. Right there, immortalised in tasteful monochrome.

The boys were in awe of the refined interior - strictly monochromatic, any accents in the otherwise white rooms and corridors were done using the colour black. Although it was not a rule by any means (in fact, you encouraged being as daring as one wanted), the majority of ARNURI employees were clad in the colour, fitting right into the brand and the aesthetics.

They were led up a couple of flights of stairs, and as they were making their way down one corridor, Hongjoong began to catch snippets of lively conversation, the occasional staff gliding a clothing rack past them or across the hallway, and... shouts of 'yes ma'am'?

Initially he was confused, but as they were getting closer to the photo studio, it clicked in his head: you were in there. Who else could be referred to as ma'am?

"Hey, Hongjoong, I think we are -actually- meant to... walk in the hall to do the shoot." Jongho walked up behind the leader, fake whispering, causing a round of chuckles from the other members. The only member who was not as smiley (except Hongjoong himself, that is) was Seonghwa, and it was because Hongjoong not so little infatuation was old news to him, and the room had been cleaned to a very satisfying level, much to his surprise.

"Woah no way, Jongho, that's insane. I was sure that this was a new technique or something..." Yunho piped in, glancing at Hongjoong, lips curling up.

He had a couple of sneaking suspicions about Hongjoong's behaviour whenever ARNURI, or more specifically the founder and lead designer, were mentioned or he was given the chance to gush about it.

The radio appearance was the closest to a confirmation that he could get - Hongjoong getting shy over being a big fan... what a sight to see. But seeing the post-discussion silent conversations between the two eldest members, and some signal exchanges while they were driving up to the venue really sealed the deal. There was something really fun going on with Hongjoong, and Yunho needed the deets.

For research purposes. And who was he to pass up on a ship in the making?

Finally, their manager, after finishing up a conversation with some of the relationship management staff from ARNURI, who had greeted them, decided to speed up the process and usher the kids in.

To soothe his nerves, Hongjoong picked at a bracelet he had selected for completing his 'first meeting and first impression' look. He had worn it many times over, and had even taken it with him on tour before, so it was a little ball of positive energy for him.

But nothing could prepare or prevent the Error that Hongjoong.exe experienced as he finally saw you in your element.

There was something spellbinding about the way you looked. Head to toe in your own creations, you were wearing an onyx-hued Victorian era inspired suit, matched with military boots that had immaculate metal detailing.

He could not stop staring, even if it could be perceived as rude, or too forward. There you were.

"Oh, guys, man down, man down, our captain's overboard~" Wooyoung taunted, shouldering San and Yeosang who were on either side of him.

It really was a sight to behold. Hongjoong, entirely captivated as you stood in the middle of the photo studio, guiding the entire room like a conductor would lead an orchestra.

He ignored the youngers' attempts to get his attention, much to their utter disbelief and resulting giddiness. If there was a definition of starstruck. This was it.

You appeared to have a pulse on EVERYTHING, down to the tiniest details, pointing out that there was a very specific prop missing, adjusting accessories, exchanging one scarf for another. It was the most organised chaos that Hongjoong had ever seen, and he was amazed at how you could keep it under control.

The star he had deemed unreachable was right there. Right in front of him.

"Joongie, I think you can leave your drooling until after the shoot. You don't want your makeup ruined."

"Oh Hwa is this how it is?" he looked at his friend in disbelief.

"I think you exposed yourself enough, no?"

"Ew, Hongjoong come on don't traumatise your wife." Wooyoung was not giving up on his mission to annoy Hongjoong into early retirement.

"GUYS please don't embarrass me-"

"Oh so you admit it?" San questioned, smirking like the devil.

"Admit what?"

"That you are doing some shady shit."

"Where did this even come from, San."

"So the studio then, no wonder you come back from there at like four in the morning."

"You guys are making me lose brain cells that I need to get instructions from the photographer." Yeosang deadpanned, nodding towards the set.

"I don't even want to begin imagining what sort of things you are thinking about, but I can assure you I will annihilate you if you start kindergarten season here." Hongjoong threatened but it fell short as Mingi grinned and joined in the ambush:

"Say 'aye' if you think this minion is invested into this shoot." the way he said it almost sounded like an innuendo, making Hongjoong scowl.

The most deafening collection of 'ayes' resounded around Hongjoong, and caused you to shift your focus to the newly arrived group. He noticed your expression soften, shoulders roll a little further back as you ambled towards them, the thuds of your boots setting his heart's pace.

"Ah good morning to you all! It is such a pleasure to be working with you. Did I make you wait for long?"

"Not at all, the pleasure is all ours." Hongjoong forced out, pushing the snickering members out of his sphere of attention.

"Great, well it is wonderful to finally meet you, I am L/N Y/N, the mad scientist behind ARNURI!"

"Very much the same here, Miss-"

"We'll be working closely enough to be informal, no?" you interjected before Hongjoong could call you by your last name.

Your allure was more powerful than he had hypothesised, to the point where some of the other members, more specifically San and Seonghwa, could not look away from you either - it seemed that you had the energy for attracting demons. The way you carried yourself, poised and courteous, demanded nothing less than respect.

At the same time, there was nothing demure about you. If anything, you resembled a cat that was ready to pounce any moment. As though there was a coil within you, permanently tense and even slightly dangerous. But that was thrilling.

Hongjoong cleared his throat, and corrected himself, "Yes, of course, sorry, Y/N. Shall we do the official greeting or-"

"Let's keep things personal for now, and once my lovely colleagues are done with the final checks, we can get started with eight makes one team." you winked, and suggested, quoting the greeting.

It was beyond entertaining for Wooyoung to see just how putty-like Hongjoong had become in your presence. He was just playing by your rules at this point, without questioning them. But it was understandable, who wouldn't get weak when their type was right in front of them and said 'let's keep things personal'?

"Well then let me be proper, I am San!" whilst you were exchanging words with Hongjoong, the member had time to slip from where he originally stood, and was now almost right in front of you, beaming.

Hongjoong chortled, but at the same time wanted to kick his fellow member in the shins because of the interception. What was his game here exactly?

Ever so politely, you greeted San back, not giving away that you were interested in continuing your chat with Hongjoong. It was second nature to you to blend one interaction into another without revealing any preferences - otherwise you would have a lot more enemies in the industry.

Then you simply proceeded to greet each ATEEZ member separately, your attention shifting entirely each time. You had a way of making people feel like, for even if just a moment, they were your universe.

It came from your tendency of seeing people both as perfect canvases, and as living works of art. You enjoyed the challenge that working off a person gave you, and this was mainly why you wanted to give each ATEEZ member a final once over - to see whether what you had planned was even right.

Each member gave you a unique impression, ranging from mischievous to shy to strictly professional. Seeing as you had never actively followed their activities, aside from their leader's, you were fascinated by the dynamic they were displaying, taking note for who you wanted to see in the camera together, and maybe even matching in some accessories.

Hongjoong was nearly holding his breath as he saw you reading ATEEZ like an open book. You were scanning everyone in the way he had seen renowned critics do while inspecting models on the runway. A Mona Lisa smile, and conclusions no one would know except yourself.

When it was finally his turn, he said his name as brightly as possible, faltering only towards the end as your eyes locked. He swore his heart nearly jumped out of his chest. It did not last long though, as you glanced down, and appeared to be incredibly happy because of something you spotted.

San was taking a particular interest in this silent mental tango, intently following your every move, while Wooyoung cupped his hand around his friend's ear and whispered.

"The bracelet."

"Ah, yes, it's uhm, should I say yours?"

"I guess so! It is from the limited edition MEDUSA collection. It suits you well. And the condition is impeccable though it's been what, a couple of years?"

"It's very precious to me, I try to take good care of it."

Seonghwa pursed his lips, the chaos of their dorm room clouding his vision. He imagined that you probably would go ballistic if you were to ever see clothing being treated in that way. Though Hongjoong did have separate storage for accessories and jewelry - that much was true.

"That means a lot. Thank you-" you turned as someone called out for you, alerting that everything was ready to go, "it's time, gentlemen, let's get this party started!"

As you clasped your hands together and moved away to join the lead photographer, allowing stylists to guide the group away and begin working their magic, San peered at Hongjoong once more.

When he made sure everyone else was out of earshot, he placed a hand on the captain's shoulder, and muttered:

"If you don't ask her out, I will. No hierarchy on this battle field."

[ckret2]

Here’s a thought experiment that could probably never reasonably happen for you. Let’s say the rest of the pines family was put in a similar position to ford: They have something they are attempting to do but cannot figure out on their own no matter how hard they try (For ford it was figuring out the weirdness magnetism). For the others, we could say that Dipper’s is functionally the same, Stan’s is trying to make a fortune so his family will take him back, and Mabel…I don’t really know what mabel would want.

For whatever reason, bill thinks that he can use this to get the portal made. Perhaps he thinks that if he basically holds their hand the whole time he can get them to do this.

Now my question is: Without knowledge of who he is beforehand, how easily could he manipulate them like he manipulated Ford? And for Stan specifically, would what Ford said about “seeing him for the scam artist he is” hold up when what is probably his biggest regret and fuck up prior to pushing Ford out to interdimensional sea is being dangled over his head?

Pretty damn easily.

He did manipulate Dipper and he did manipulate Mabel and they do know who he is. How much more easily could he have manipulated them if they'd only known him as a "muse" or as an "advanced alien life form, presenting as a triangle because his true form is incomprehensible to human eyes, because he's impressed by your potential" or as a "magical dream fairy, traveling through sleeping minds to help young girls' dreams come true!"

If they talked to each other, Dipper would probably be able to figure out Mabel's being conned ("if he's gonna make your dreams come true why do you have to do all this stuff for HIM? Has he SAID what he'll do to help you and why he can't just do it NOW?") and Mabel would probably be able to figure out Dipper's being conned ("bro, he's DROWNING you in flattery. If he really means it, why's he acting like you have to PROVE your smartness by doing this big dumb thing for him?"), but I don't think either would figure it out alone until it was too late. There's a reason Bill only targets them when they're isolated from each other.

Stan got suckered by a spider girl flirting with him after he knew she was a spider girl. We see him thinking that a lot of truly terrible ideas are gonna make him a fortune—searching for gold with a metal detector, becoming a door-to-door salesman, whatever terrible ideas he got roped into that landed him in prison... I think Stan would have the best odds of figuring Bill out, but I don't think he's immune to getting conned.

Stan's able to punch out Bill while Bill is trying to offer him power and fame and fortune because he already knows who Bill is and hates him for messing with his family. But if Bill had come to Stan at age 25, presented himself as something just sleazy enough to be believable—maybe not "divine muse" but something like "greed demon who helps promising but unlucky young entrepreneurs turn their luck around" ("Sure I'm the real deal, pal, why do you think my face is on every buck in your wallet?!"), and made the same fame and fortune offers, I think Stan's only hesitation would be "What's the catch? What's in it for YOU?" If Bill comes up with anything even SLIGHTLY plausible—"I feed on greed, kid, the more money you make the more power I get, and you don't even have to give me a cut of the profits"—then Stan's sold.

Even easier if he somehow identifies Stan's REAL priorities. "Your brother only turned his back on you because dear old ma and pa made him feel like the family's financial future rests on his shoulders. He's out there trying to make 'em millionaires and miserable about it. He hates it as much as you do. Come home with a fortune and he'd drop everything to go sailing with you in an instant. It'd be a relief, even. Don't you wanna be your brother's hero?"

While Ford put absolute blind faith in Bill up until the portal incident, I think Stan would start getting uneasy and suspicious before anything's wrong; even if Bill isn't waving any red flags yet, if everything is TOO easy it might worry Stan. But isn't easy GOOD? Didn't he always want a get-rich-quick scheme? He'd be worried, but he'd keep going—sunk cost fallacy—and tell himself it'll work out in the end. It has to.

Characters: Academic Rival! Ren @14dayswithyou x reader

Okay, but I have been an academic rivals to lovers stan for far too long, y’all don’t understand…

So like, this au would totally have redacted still the same as Canon! Redacted, he’d just be like… more open to the MC? And it’d be in an academic setting??? Like he developed some self-esteem solutions and got more confident in being himself, still having subtle mannerisms of character traits you enjoyed… but more him

Like… he went to therapy so he could be better for you before you even knew him, cause you said some bullshit like they were no good looking guys in the world who didn’t have therapy, cause there’s nothing hotter than a mentally stable guy. (i mean, you’re all here because you love a stable guy, right… ;] )

But yeah, now you just know him as that snarky ass, dark-haired with pink tips ‘genius’ in your university ‘psychology in modern media’ class.

Warnings and whatnot: lolol NSFW implications so minors DNI, a decent amount of swearing on my part, I'd say?

Another flawless assignment completed for you. Whoo! It was a nice day to be smart!

To be fair, you had pored over that goddamn presentation for hours before going to sleep, so if you hadn’t done well, you probably would’ve bust a pipe over some unlucky guy’s head.

You grinned seeing the big 95 on your paper. You spent so long detailing the moral complications between the character relationships as you gutted the root problems for each of the character flaws and how that showed in their bonds with others.

Unfortunately, you had the (dis)pleasure of being seated to [REDACTED], the class self-proclaimed genius. 

God, you hated him.

You were pretty sure you hated him more because he was so stupidly hot. You could clearly see his chiseled stone abs when he wore those clingy, black compression shirts! And paired with gray fucking sweatpants?

He knew what he was doing… And it was to mess up your game!

I mean, seriously, what was the lecturer doing, seating you next to this second coming of Michelangelo?! It’s almost like she had something personal against you!

(the lecturer was in fact, very for the both of you getting together. You both were smart, maybe you’d find a way to increase [REDACTED]’s grades…)

You never noticed him all that much in the beginning of the year. He brooded in his own corner, never noticed by anyone in those dumb black baggy hoodies.

But the minute he sat next to you, all of a sudden he realized he was hot stuff???

Okay, sure there, bro. He needed to chill out.

All of a sudden, he went from a lonely loser, to some hot genius within like the span of a day.

You didn’t get it.

But to be fair, you didn’t remember telling your good friend Moth how you started having things for hot but smart guys and guys who could actually stand a battle of wits… But that was for [REDACTED] to remember, and you to forget.

He leaned over your shoulder, a lazy smirk gracing his features. “95, not bad, angel.”

Agh! That stupid nickname! It was supposed to be something intimate, something reserved for lovers and such, but he insisted on using it to berate your grades!

He slid his paper over with a big 96 on it. “But not good enough.”

Of course. He had to have known that he was doing an in depth character analysis on the teachers favorite character and played to all the teachers preferences in the character and was spouting self-servient bullshit!

…But his presentation was well done, you had to admit. Normal people wouldn’t notice because you pay an unhealthy amount to any flaws in his looks, but he must’ve studied hard, he had huge eyebags during his presentation…

How would you know it’s because he thought your frustrated face was so cute when you kept thinking of ideas for your presentation that he completely forgot he had to impress the teacher to impress you?

Honestly, [REDACTED] cared more that he was on your mind in any way, even if that was because he acted like a ‘suck-up’ because he was too busy watching you.

“Hope you haven’t forgotten the many times I’ve beaten you academically, [REDACTED]. Or are you losing your memory because you’ve been sitting with a godsend this whole time? Sorry, didn’t mean for my heavenly powers to warp with your memory.” You rolled your eyes and crossed your arms.

“Then, you’re sure living up to your title, angel.” He snorted and went back to looking towards the front before muttering something under his breath. “...But your presentation was good, dork.”

In shock at the compliment, you stood there with your mouth open.

He glanced back over at you, “What? Is it so hard to believe that you did well on our midterm presentation?” he huffed to himself in disbelief before a grin made its way to his face. “Sitting there with your mouth open? It’s like you want someone to kiss that dumb look off your face.”

He thought the comment would shake you out of your stupor, make you come back with a feisty comment.

But no, you sat there, thinking about all the implications of that statement. …What if he kissed you? But he has so many piercings… He has a tongue piercing, snakebites, honestly, your mouth would feel like a jewelry store with the amount of silver in it…

But he looked like a fuckboy, would he be good at kissing?

Wait, hold up, no, no, no. Dude, you gotta remember…

He was a loser up until now.

If that’s the way he’d been his whole life, he’s probably never even kis—

And if that realization wasn’t enough for you to drop your jaw, nothing ever would.

[REDACTED] could only stare at you in mild surprise as your mouth opened… even more. He slowly blinked at you, a mock-scandalized look on his face, “What, you really want someone to kiss you that bad? You volunteering to be kissed, angel?”

You immediately let go all thoughts of kissing that gorgeous jerk in favor of heat rising to your face, “Nope. I’m good.”

He pushed and prodded a little more, “What, you never kissed anyone before?” He actually wasn’t quite sure. The early years when he didn’t know how to hack anything and couldn’t follow you were blank spaces in your life to him.

You muttered a curse under your breath and turned away from him without denying his question.

Although you couldn’t see it, his whole face lit up with hope. Oh, he was going to be your first kiss! He couldn’t wait! He internallly coughed at his eagerness.

He had to court you first before the two of you could become anything.

He looked back at your lecturer who had been picking on students who had to read out full paragraphs of their analysis on a TV Show that followed the messy plot of a coming of age, romance drama.

And also, clearly, leaving the two of you alone. He hushedly whispered to you, “Wait, are you serious, angel?”

You grumbled into the palm of your hand before slowly turning to him, “unfortunately… yes. I haven’t kissed anyone yet. But turns out this university is full of jerks and dumbasses…”

You paused. Well, maybe not all jerks and dumbasses. “Guess there’s a couple guys in the music department that are cool.”

Murder flashed through [REDACTED]’s mind thinking of you asking them out before putting on a strained smile, “So where do I fit in, hm?”

“I dunno…” You hadn’t put too much thought towards [REDACTED]. Sure, he was hot. But he was kind of a prick.

But he did respect your gender identity…

And he never went too far, making sure he didn’t cross any lines or boundaries…

And he gave you that academic rival that you’d been search―

…Oh my god.

He was your academic rival.

You loved rivals to lovers… Was this a sign? You got a hot rival, who respects you, your boundaries, your intellect and he was hot?!

Okay, maybe you had dreamed about him on a couple of weird occasions, but dreams don’t mean anything!

Is what you would say if you were in denial.

Oh dear, did you like him?!

You gave him a quick once over, looking at all the piercings on his ears and face as your eyes trailed to his shirt which clung tightly to his skin, all defined abs and muscles on display.

Hold up! Were those body cutouts on his top around his hips that you saw?! Fuck, those were hot…

Your eyes trailed a little bit lower to his pants… and shit, he was packing… There was no way in hell he was allowed to be that big, in height and in… length.

Ugh, your thoughts made you shudder a little. No way you were thirsting over a guy you were just fighting.

…But it wouldn’t be the first time, that’s for sure…

Okay, so maybe you had not-so-subtly eyed your seatmate like he was a piece of meat.

But he enjoyed the attention! He loved you drinking him up like he was just a pretty thing. But he was your pretty thing… Some random girls keep trying to ask him out, but he doesn’t want them. He wants you. But most importantly, he wants you to want him too.

“What, cat got your tongue, sweetheart?” He teased, using something other than angel as a nickname.

“Wh-Whatever, [REDACTED]. Shut up.” You rolled your eyes and took your attention off of him before whispering something under your breath.

“Angel, you gotta speak up.”

You grimaced, “I guess you go into the alright department. Luckily for you, you’re the only one there. You seem to be the only one I know who’s cool enough to handle me around here.”

He blinked, looking at you in subtle reverence, “A whole department for me, angel? Thank you.” He laced it with an edge of sarcasm but internally, he couldn’t have been more happy. 

He was the only one there that you tolerated! The only one you liked.

You. Chose. Him.

what’s the timeline for rich girl? if they’re in the first few months after debut it’s easy to understand why they would make mean comments about richgirl!yn since the group was formed rather quickly and the members didn’t have much time to bond but if they already been together for 1/2 years then wtf???? richgirl!yn is super unserious but they live and work together 24/7 it’s impossible they haven’t learned her tells or seen her upset once, bffr even if she doesn’t cry she can’t pretend she’s fine for this long it’s humanly impossible

the girls are so funny thinking richgirl!yn is the most stanned member bc she’s the daughter of some rich dude, we’re living in a eat the rich era people have 0 empathy towards rich people, her being the daughter of a businessman would make people hate her and say she bought her spot in the group no one would be stanning her just bc she’s rich (just like when people found out that the heir to samsung was going to debut and people were already hating that girl)

also like the members thinking she’s were she is today bc of her dad money is so laughable, they are a group they’ve seen her during practice, live performances and heard her feats how can they look at her and don’t realize how extremely talented she is??? (again if they just debuted it’s understandable but if they’ve been together for a while wtffff???) and let’s be serious she an ex sm trainee girly pop was supposed to debut with aespa we all know she sings live and she eats it all the time

does the public know that she was supposed to debut with aespa? is it something they’ve publicly talked about before? you said she’s always at their dorm so people would wonder how they are so close, and we really need a richgirl!yn x aespa collab to see what ot5 would be like and they performing their song together at awards shows would be a dream

I would say it’s placed during this timeline rn and it is very much humanly possible for her to act like she’s okay since it’s been installed in her to act like that since birth, she raised on not showing vulnerability so ofc it would be easy for her to act like she’s okay, she’s been doing it for over a decade. the’ve seen her upset about an ignorant interviewer or some hate comments but it wasn’t to extent that it was taken seriously because it’s yn she’s always fine in their eyes, they’ve never seen her get rlly worked up before because she’s just that good at repressing her emotions.

they think she’s the most stanned because her father is not only just a rich businessman but a businessman that’s loved in korea, he’s a very known person and does “good.” for the people (which he rlly doesn’t but lets not get into that.) which obviously isn’t the reason why yn is the most stanned she’s just rlly loved for her talents and visuals. there is an undertone of envy when it comes to yn and her members and you’ll see it more very soon in the next couple of small things I’ll put out in between the chapters but because of that they immediately resort to her money being the reason for all of her achievements outside the group. they love her but also have some sort of secret animosity over her that never rlly let them build their relationship with yn like they have with each other. (that’s excluding kazuha ofc) like yeah they’ll talk to her but that doesn’t stop their thoughts getting to their head (again excluding kazuha.)

one thing about them it doesn’t matter how talented yn is they can’t help but think she got where she is with her dad’s money and the fact that she was under sm but as soon as her dad started doing business with hybe she got immediately transferred to hybe rlly fuels it for them, they think her dad has to be helping her sometimes and it’s funny because they don’t even think that in a hating way it’s just what makes the most sense to them because for some reason ofc the most privileged in the group is the one who has the most brand deals and popularity but in reality yns dad doesn’t give two shits about her popularity in the industry, he only made her transfer to hybe because he didn’t want to her to work with competition.

and you’re so right she does eat 24/7 but to people if you’re rich that automatically means you can’t be talented.

the public knows that she’s an ex sm trainee because of sm rookies and that she was apart of the lineup for aespa but they don’t know the reason why she left the lineup but they do know how close she is with the girls especially ningning

I will definitely do some yn + aespa stuff if that’s what you guys are into because they’re rlly important to yn she sometimes wishes she fought her dad harder to stay in the lineup

RE: JE hating Z cause of hate from her fans.

lowkeyyyy 👀 this is where I think of z and taylor swift as similar cause they both have rabid ass fans who will attack at first watch. I remember that interview from a long time ago where tom copied z’s instagram caption as a joke and then he was talking about how her fans were in his comments going off on him. and yeah they laughed it off, but it’s been a known thing that zendaya fans (especially on twitter) are not well and are the barbz of film twitter. It’s weird that before this year, z openly admitted to being a heavy lurker on her fan accounts yet never thought to be like “hey guys, stop attacking these people” 🤷‍♀️ that’s the same thing people constantly harp on taylor for because her fans do way too much online when attacking other celebs

Lol first I think I should clarify what I mean by "hate". I don't think he actually HATES Z. Hate is a very strong word. I just think JE would probably think twice now before dating a woman on Z's level of fame and influence in the future. He might prefer things with Olivia since she's relatively low-key and won't have a ton of fans jumping down his throat if they were to ever break up. Ykwim?

I remember that interview from a long time ago where tom copied z’s instagram caption as a joke and then he was talking about how her fans were in his comments going off on him

Chiiiiile Tom learned that day! LOL 🤣 He even talks about it in this radio interview:

FF [3:25]

This might be a "Confession Monday" comment lol, but I've always thought that Tom's post wasn't actually a JAB at Zendaya, but more so a joking self-deprecating comment about himself? Is it just me?? 🤔

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Tom Holland (@tomholland2013)

I thought he was using her same caption, and putting HIS picture up there and saying "stealing hearts since NEVER" as a joke on himself. I thought he only tagged Zendaya so that she would see the post and so that people would know that it was a nod to HER post. I never got the impression he was trying to put Zendaya down at all. I thought it was just a joke on himself and using her same caption as a cute thing to do.

Is it just me? 😅

Anyway, either way, Z's rabid Stans came and destroyed Tom in his comments section on her behalf. 😭

And see, this is why I need fans to stay in their LANE, and stop acting like they know these celebrities better than the celebrities know each other. Z obviously knows Tom way better than we do, and he knows her way better than we do (even back in 2017 - at the time of this interview).

Fans act all entitled and cocky and get mad on an actor's behalf when they don't even have the same relationship with that person as that actor has at ALL. 🙄

Like, stop! It's cringe! Stay in your LANE PLEASE. 😩 Fans act like the weirdos who try to come into a friendship group acting like they know everything and others in the group are like, please...just stop. You haven't known us as long as we've all known each other. Just stop.

[yanderes-galore]

A concept for yandere Professor Chaos with a hero darling that views him as their nemesis if you're willing to write for him please?

I'm going to alter it a little hit but it'll keep the plot! Aged up as usual! Wasn't sure where/how I wanted to bring the plot... so at the end it had two possibilities. I hope you liked this :D.

Yandere! Professor Chaos with Hero! Darling

Pairing: Romantic

Possible Trigger Warnings: Gender-Neutral Darling, Violence, Enemies/Lovers but forced, Delusional behavior, Manipulation, Kidnapping, Obsession, Attempts at stockholm syndrome implied.

Professor Chaos is an extension of Butters in terms of yandere.

He's a somewhat incompetent villain that thinks what he's doing is horrible but really isn't usually.

He causes inconveniences more than anything for the most part.

Although in the games he is actually kinda threatening.

I feel he'd declare himself as your nemesis, like it or not.

Then he slowly realizes the genre of 'Enemies To Lovers' and decides that is what you two will do!

Perhaps it's time Professor Chaos had a... romance arc.

He knows he's supposed to be a bringer of chaos and not supposed to be loving.

Yet, Butters has known you before he and you took on an alter-ego.

When Stan, Kyle, and Cartman used him as a slave or punching bag, you were there for him.

Which made him... biased.

Naturally when he realized you were a hero he knew he had to do something.

He's easily one of the greatest villains in South Park.

It should be an honor for you and him to be enemies!

You're his nemesis now!

You may not even think of him as your nemesis despite what he thinks.

That or you do see him as a nemesis and just don't agree on the whole sub-plot he has planned.

Professor Chaos fantasizes about the arc you two could share for each other's character.

He hopes you can imagine it...

Professor Chaos and his nemesis... secret lovers in a world plagued by chaos of his design!

You act like you hate it... but you must love it as much as him!

He has this whole fantasy like something out of a comic book.

Even as a villain... Butters is still as soft as he was when he was younger.

The issue is his... execution.

He feels he can't hurt you when you fight.

You could beat him and he'd probably just accept it.

He also struggles trying to tell you his plan.

He loves you...! This could be important to your characters...!

Upon rejection... Chaos decides he'll have to persuade you.

Sure... maybe some enemies to lovers stories involve a little kidnapping-

He can make this work.

This little fantasy of superhero and villain pivots between actual illegal territory.

At first you thought this was some cute attempt at nostalgia!

Now Butters was actually holding you hostage in his house.

You thought you were just playing...!

This is the point you start to fear his delusions.

He stutters about it but he tries to be loving towards you yet also kinda mean?

He's really far into his delusions and this was a disturbing attempt at a confession.

That's if we were making this closer to canon where this is all some sort of game.

But if we're talking an actual superhero AU, it would be similar.

You didn't mean to get caught after Chaos tried to confess such a deal to you.

Yet Chaos is more insane than you thought.

Delusional, really... keeping you in a steel cage you can't break out of.

You always thought of him as evil.

Either scenario is a poor position to be in.

Then here he is... a lovestruck gaze on his face.

Claiming you warm his evil heart.

The first scenario is the most terrifying one.

Butters taking the game too far... thinking it's a good way to confess to you-

You hope that you'll be able to get him to reach his senses or get help soon.

Either by police or an actual superhero you don't care, you just want to be home!

[wenellyb]

Tommy was definitely racist to Hen and Chim. It seems like in season 2 they all moved past it though. Fans don't have to forgive Tommy. He's not owed forgiveness but so far it doesn't seem like Hen and Chim are bothered anymore by his past racism and horrible behavior. In season 2 we saw a change in Tommy and the dynamic at the 118. In season 2 we saw Hen, Chim, and Tommy being friendly together. That doesn't mean he wasn't racist but it seems to imply that they all moved on or at least were able to be okay with each other. This show is known for bad behavior happening onscreen and then we don't see apologies, people just seem to move on so I don't know if we'll ever see Tommy apologize to Hen and Chim for being racist to them.

We haven't seen Tommy being racist or sexist towards Hen and Chim or anyone since season 2. I guess we'll see what happens in season 8. Personally, as long as Hen and Chim are okay with Tommy then I can be okay with Tommy but if they bring up his old behavior and feel like they need him to address it then I am right there with them. When it comes to shows sometimes I feel like if the victims are okay and have moved on then so can I and that's how I view Tommy. If we see Tommy being racist, sexist, or horrible again in anyway then I'll have problems with him again but so far we haven't seen that. He's come back and been nothing but helpful to everyone at the 118. Nothing excuses his past behavior though, not even him being better now.

I think you should definitely block shippers and stans if they impact your enjoyment of a show or character. Please don't let stans ruin things for you.

Hi Anon!!! Thank you for sending this! And honestly I have no problem with people liking Tommy, far from it, I hope I didn't imply that in my previous posts.

My problems are:

1) people who say that Tommy wasn't racist because Hen and Chimney were civil with him when they were working together. As if it's some kind of evidence...a lot of people have been civil and polite to racist coworkers, for various reasons (for exemple: they weren't in a position where they would afford to jeopaedize their job).

2) people who act like the fandom should forgive Tommy because Hen and Chimney forgave him. Racism is a complexe issue that can't be summarized in a Tumblr post. But it's not as simple as Hen and Chimney were the "victims", in the case of racism, the victim isn't only the person it's direct towards, but a whole group of people.

Let me give a stupid example, but just to explain what I mean. Let's say A says the n-word to B. Later, A apologizes and B forgives A because he was drunk or didn't realize what he was saying or for whatever reason, it doesn't mean that other Black people should forgive A. That slur wasn't only directed at B, even though B was the victim in that scenario, that slur targets every Black person who witnessed or heard about that conversation.

(I apologize I'm bad at giving example I hope you understand what I mean😭)

If Hen and Chimney, have fogiven Tommy it doesn't mean that other fans should "get over it", unless they want to.

If Hen and Chimney forgiving Tommy is enough for you then that's ok, more than ok, but it might not be the case for everyone, especially non-White fans.

Side note, I also don't like when people assume the only reason other people dislike Tommy as a character is because they ship Buddie. Some of them do, but not all of them.

Thank you for the ask, I really appreciate your input.

And you're right, I'll start blocking some people, at first, I thought I shouldn't be blocking some people because we're part of the same fandom but that's obviously the wrong strategy.

❥ Hika's Birthday + 780 Followers Event

Genre: Bittersweet

Prompt: “Not a single moment of all this was fake.”

Character: Yaku Morisuke

A/N: Requested by @hinahaikyuu !!!! Thank u for being the first (again omg love u sm aaaaaa 🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭) requester !!! Im kinda nervous to serve up a yaku fic for another yaku stan i hope this isnt too horrible aetwhwhuwhw 😭😭 fake dating with yaku was quite a challenge so u know i HAD to over explain some stuff im so sorry-- but i had fun writing this one!! Thank u sm again for the request i hope u enjoy ehherh 💗💗💗

A week. You only had to endure this for a week. It’s really not that hard. At least, that’s what you had thought at first but looking at it now, you really doubt you can survive even a day of this. 

“Uh…Yaku. I think I can-”

“No, let me do this.”

Yaku promptly cut you off before sliding your shoe off your foot. You should’ve seen this coming. Going on a date with your best friend would undoubtedly exhaust your leg at some point. You should’ve worn a more comfortable set of shoes. You knew this. 

What you couldn’t have predicted however was Yaku fully getting into the whole “boyfriend” act and actually helped take off your shoes for you. You watched as he slid on another pair of shoes, a more comfortable one that he just bought at a nearby store. 

He grinned when seeing how flustered you were. Oh he’s doing this on purpose all right. As much as you hated being teased by him like that, you couldn’t bring yourself to ask him to stop and as much as you didn’t want to, you had to admit, being spoiled by Yaku like this wasn’t half bad. 

So, how did you even end up in this situation that could possibly lead to your heart bursting? Well, it all started with one person. Kuroo Tetsurou. He, who thought that the best idea to ward off a guy who’s been asking you out and pestering you nonstop was by making you and Yaku, your best friend, pretend to date each other. He, who had a knowing grin when suggesting that, as if he was hiding an ulterior motive unbeknownst to you. Sure, Yaku was a longtime crush of yours, but there’s NO WAY Kuroo would’ve known that. And even if he had known it, he couldn’t have possibly suggested that idea to set you and Yaku up together, right? (That’s completely untrue, he would most definitely do that, without a doubt.)

And Yaku. He didn’t look completely against the idea when it was first brought up. In fact, you could almost see a glimmer of shine in his eyes when he heard that, though you could be mistaken. But more than anything, he prioritised your opinion. You weren’t against the idea either. It could work, and not to mention you and Yaku were close to each other, so it won’t be much of a problem, right?

Well, you see, that’s where you’re absolutely wrong. It became a huge problem, especially to your heart. Yaku was still the Yaku you’re familiar with. But somehow he’s different. He’s not your best friend Yaku Morisuke that you had a crush on anymore. No, he made himself feel like he’s more than that. He made you feel like you both were more than just friends. 

Sure, you were supposed to be dating in the first place. That was the plan. To act like you were dating. 

'But it was supposed to be an ACT!' a part of your mind screamed. 'How the hell is he making this all look, FEEL, genuine??'

Yaku took your hand, holding it firmly in his, before smiling down at you. 

"Let's continue this date if you're feeling alright. Don't worry, we'll take it slow this time. There's still some more stuff I wanna show that I'm sure you'll love-"

"What do you like about me?"

Yaku's smile faded upon hearing your question. You didn't dare to look at his face, feeling mortified at yourself. What the hell did you just ask him?

"I mean! We're fake dating now, right? So like, what if someone asked that? How would you answer? I'm curious ahaha…."

Yaku snorted, he could definitely see right through you. It's so painfully obvious that you were trying to save the situation by adding that explanation. But still, he'll let it slide this time.

"Well, to start off,"

He began walking, and you followed closely behind him, not wanting to miss anything he said, while your hands were still clasped together.

"I like…no, I love how dazzling you are. No matter what you do or how you look, you always seem to shine. You shine so brightly in fact, sometimes I had to look away."

He stopped in front of a small trinket shop before leading you inside. He made his way through the shelves full of small shiny decorations, before picking up a small star made of glass and handing it to you.

"Like a star. You're a sight for sore eyes, and you brighten the dark night sky."

You both exited the shop after (Yaku) purchased the glass star. He then led you to another shop, this time a classy looking cafe.

He had asked you about what you would like to order, but you, still in a trance at what he just said previously, mindlessly blurted out the first thing that came to your mind. He smiled, before continuing, 

"I love the way you make me feel. You make me feel at ease with your presence. It's comforting. Even without saying a single word, being with you…"

Your orders arrived and he thanked the waiter before facing you once again.

"It's so cosy. Like a cup of warm coffee during winter days."

He took a sip of his drink, letting you slowly process his words. He didn't mind waiting for your response. He'll wait for you no matter how long it takes. 

"...oh my god...why?"

"Why what?"

You clenched your fists, hoping that it'll somehow slow down your rapidly beating heart. If you're honest, you're worried that it might actually explode at this rate. 

"Why…why do you sound so...genuine? We're just acting like we're dating. It's all just an act, a fake. So why on earth-"

"Are you upset because you think it's all just an act?"

You fell silent at his words. You couldn't say anything to that. Because he's right. You were upset. Him saying all of this to you, causing your heart to go wild, only for it all to be just an act? Of course it would upset you. 

"If you are, then I'll let you in on a secret."

You looked at him, confused. His right hand reached out to you before softly placing it on top of your left cheek. With a sigh and slightly reddish face, he whispered just enough for you to hear him clearly. 

“Not a single moment of all this was fake.”

Random 4MW question (I don’t think I missed this in the story, but apologies if I did!) And please feel free to disregard if this is a spoiler somehow, but…did Steve and Bucky’s trip to City Hall ever “leak,” per Bernie’s concern? Or is it like…people kinda know but it’s not Known.

I'm kind of laughing because part of me is like--how on earth would I know? If ever a universe has it's own life, it's this one, and I feel like lots of people have a better sense of what's going on than I do!!! :D

That said, my sense is that no, their legal marriage has not leaked and so is not widely known, despite being public record--I think the guys at city hall didn't sell them out and nobody else has bothered to look. (I also think that if it leaked, it would be a big deal and we would have had to have seen them process it, in a story: they really do think that their lives are their business alone.)

If you were to go to their wikipedia pages--(oh god do I have to write their wikipedia pages? please no)--you would learn about the events of The Tradeoff, i.e. Bucky Barnes a) is alive and b) a supersoldier and c) wore the Captain America costume between the eras of Steve Rogers and Sam Wilson and d) was a POW/The Winter Soldier from 1945 to 2014. But I don't think it's known that Steve and Bucky are more to each other than very close (intimate?) friends (for obvious reasons of being the only two survivors of another era?), or even that they live together, say. While Bucky did that interview in Brooklyn with the guy from Brooklyn College, I wouldn't take that headline ("Bucky Barnes Returns To Brooklyn") as an admission that he now lives in Brooklyn, though obviously he and Steve both have strong ties to NY (and the Avengers in general have strong ties to NY; this is a 2012-Avengers spin off world where they all still have rooms in Stark Tower). Even SHIELD is now in NY thanks to Natasha. But I think that most of the private things about their lives are still private.

I will say, also, btw, that I feel like I see four guys who look like Chris Evans every single day just walking around. I mean this as no insult to Evans-stans, but his particular brand of Italian-Irish looks is just super-common around here. So in my heart I really do believe that they could basically just live their lives acting normally and not be recognized (which I had a lot of fun with in Captain America At Home!)

Hi

I would like to clarify that I am Lucien Stan and I ship Elucien.

I would like to know what made you shippa Elucien?

Me: The whole cauldron scene BEFORE Lucien WHISPERS that elain was his partner.

&

I would like to point out something about the fandom, I notice that some people in the fandom do not know how to interpret Lucien's attitudes, which is associated with a Raposa (Foxes are beautiful animals and solitary in nature, they are known for their cunning and cunning) people assume that he changed his Personality when in Acowar we have clotheslines telling us the opposite and stating that that sarcastic, acid and courageous personality is there, we have people saying that they are depressed when in reality he is in a scenario where he does not have intimacy with the people around him to be that Lucien from book 1, We still have people who disregard something that is in the books, which was not written for nothing, which is the interaction and relationship between Lucien and Vassa, which in my view is very similar to the relationship between Elain and Az.

However to me it's clear with all the clues, the formula of Sjm writing and with the factor that Elain found her way to Lucien while Sjm was writing the second book and knowingly their names both mean the same thing and both have so much in common not just equals but complementary, since elain is a flower that needs sunlight and lucien is the son of the sun incarnated, i think it's simply fantastic.

Hello !!! It's nice to see the extra message from you ❤️

I agree that it seems like certain readers don't grasp the character of Lucien. I regularly see "what happened to the sarcastic Lucien from book 1?!" It seems pretty obvious though, doesn't it?

Since then, one of his closest friends has physically assaulted him, turned his back on him, he's been chased out of the only home he'd had for centuries, had his brothers once again try to attack him, fought in his first war, was SA by Ianthe, found out he had a Mate after he spent the last however many centuries under the impression that Jesminda was his Mate and had emotional loyalty to her after all that time which is now being challenged by the discovery of his Mating Bond.

And like you said, he's not surrounded by his "people" right now. Maybe if we saw him alone with Jurian we'd see some of his sarcastic nature coming back out from time to time but he's going to be a muted version of himself around the people in the NC. I think they're beginning to develop some sort of positive relationship but it's early stages and I don't think he's ever going to be best friends with Rhys, Cassian, or Az. And his relationship with Feyre has taken a hit so they are on slightly shaky ground these days. There's not really opportunity for Lucien to act like he once did and I think he need to deal with all the stressors in his life before he can think of getting back to that place anyway.

As far as Vassa and Lucien being to one another what Elain and Az are, I might see that a little different than you (though I have no idea if my way of thinking is valid since we don't have a lot to go on with Vassa and Lucien). I definitely think Az and Elain are a rebound of sorts. Him from Mor and her from Graysen. I don't think either one has fully let go of their past loves (which we'd probably need to see them working through in their own books) but I think that it's a step in showing us that they will be able to let go of their first loves when it's time so they can be with their endgame. Both aren't ready to fully deal with moving on from their pasts so they've found a temporary substitute to avoid dealing truly letting go.

With Lucien and Vassa, I just see friendship. I think Lucien feels discomfort when he tells Nesta "at each others throats as they like to be" when discussing Jurian and Vassa. Not because he has feelings for Vassa but because once again, he's in the middle of a romantic pairings drama (i.e. Tamlin and Feyre) when he's just trying to find a place where he belongs. Once again, he's becoming a bit of a third wheel. And the reason I don't think he's feeling anything romantic toward Vassa is because Lucien hasn't felt ANYTHING romantic toward any female since Jesminda's death, until Elain. He's been physically intimate but canonically, he's never been ready to even consider having an emotional connection. Since he thought Jesminda was in fact his Mate, his heart has always remained loyal to her.

Elain is the first person to put that loyalty at risk which is why he's struggling so much with the bond. Because the second he feels actual intimacy and connection to Elain, he feels like he's betrayed Jesminda. I really don't think (considering it took a mating bond for him to get to that point), he'd suddenly feel a connection to Vassa too, in a romantic way. If his Mating Bond with Elain (the most sacred of bonds to the Fae) causes him to feel guilty about Jesminda, than I don't think he's going to add to that guilt by feeling a connection to yet another female. I do think he respects Vassa and is all "Yeah! Girl Power!" towards her the same way he has always felt with Feyre. He really seems to respect women and has developed a lot of friendships with females over the years.

As far as what made me ship Elucien (my FAVORITE topic! 😄). It's who they each are as individuals. The things Lucien values, the things Elain values, their core personality traits. They are so similar without even knowing one another and in this Fae world where vicious fighters and outspoken, aggressive personalities seem to be the default, they are the two characters who stand out to me as being able to finally have their person who understands them. They are surrounded on all sides by this other type of personality and they are a bit misunderstood because they are so much different than that. So they've both spent their whole lives a bit "odd man out" and if they were to finally connect and really get to know one another, I think it would be the first time they'd ever truly felt seen. Neither has to sacrifice who they are to be together. Their conversations would be full of intelligence, depth, humor, sincerity, and a willingness to admit their wrongs. They wouldn't be a trigger for each other (like I think Az's aggression would be a trigger for Elain who doesn't like violence and I think someone like Feyre or Vassa, with their brash personalities, would trigger Lucien to feel like his opinions were constantly being undervalued and he was "less" than.

I don't think that SJM has ever written two more beautifully compatible characters, two complete equals and it would be such a shame to see that go to waste if they weren't endgame.

[cosmicjoke]

I am a bit lost for words. I didn't know you'd be upset or that you've been asked the questions I asked countless times already. All the interviews I mentioned are interviews that have been known by most people in the aot fandom...

Kamiya san never said Levi and Erwin were not even friends...

Anyway, thanks for answering... I think because you've answered these questions before you kind of brushed of all my questions to tell me it wasn't canon. Please, I wasn't trying to push you to think they are canon. I simply wanted to be able to take off my own shipper goggles but your answers have still left me confuse because the wasn't any concrete answers that didn't seem like an annoyed rant.

There is so much hostility toward the Eruri fandom by Levi stans even tho there are people who literally ship Levi with Eren. It's baffling.

There's plenty there that's concrete. You brushing my answers off as "not concrete" pretty much proves my point. Nothing you noted to me or claimed has any, evidentiary backing. It's all pure speculation and assumption and applied meaning with nothing to actually back it up, which is what I told you, which is why I don't take any of it seriously. You read meaning into scenes which is colored by your bias of wanting to see it as romantic, and when I tell you so, you tell me I've offered you nothing concrete. I gave you explanations which make infinitely more sense, when taken in the context of the actual events unfolding in the story, than to simply say it's "meant to be seen as romantic". An example, you trying to imply that Levi holding the serum to his chest is somehow indicative of his feelings for Erwin, when all it is, as I explained, is Levi hesitating because he's just discovered Erwin is alive. You want it to mean that Levi's heart is hurting, or whatever, but it literally doesn't mean anything other than what I've laid out. How is that "not concrete"? I am annoyed, because I get asks like this constantly and I've repeatedly stated that I don't want to talk about this anymore, but no one ever listens. You must know my stated stance on Eruri, so you must know what my answers will be, and yet you continue to needle me about it, like you can't just simply accept my answers.

I didn't brush your questions off. I literally went through every one and gave you my legitimate thoughts on each. You presented nothing to me which proves, or even suggest that Levi is in love with Erwin, because there simply isn't anything to support the notion. What's so confusing about that? What's so hard to accept about that?

I'm not hostile toward Eruri shippers, I'm just sick of these inane, persistent and obsessive questions I get, over and over, most of which in fact are aimed at me with the intent to argue. I said I'm sorry for being harsh, but you have to understand this from my perspective.

It's beyond tiring at this point. I gave you thorough answers to your questions, you then accuse me of brushing you off and not giving you anything concrete, because they weren't the answers you wanted, and then you act confused as to why I'm being so blunt. This kind of act gets to me, this constant hiding behind a facade of innocent intent or ignorance, as if you don't know what my opinion already is. You do, I'm sure, but you keep pushing. I've talked about this particular topic more times than I can count. You provide no evidence for the things you claim Isayama has said, saying it's because you don't know how to link to the source. There's endless supplies of false rumors and mistranslations floating around out there, and none of it matters, as I've repeatedly stated, because, again, the only thing that matters is what's in the manga/anime. That' IT. Even if Isayama said whatever it is you claim he said, it doesn't matter, because those are just off-handed, spur of the moment, vague answers given without much thought in live settings, or they're interview answers given in the midst of his writing the story, which necessarily means he can't give complete, fleshed out answers to anything, either because he didn't have a fully formed picture in his head at the time of where things were going, or he couldn't reveal what he knew because it would spoil the story.

If you want to believe Levi was in love with Erwin, go right ahead. But don't pretend like there's actual, concrete evidence or proof of it in the story, because there isn't.

I've written three replies to you now, and you haven't shown an ability to accept my answers on either one. You want to believe Levi and Erwin are romantically involved, and nothing to the contrary is going to matter to you, including the lack of proof in canon. I think this conversation is done now.

[1eos]

that person is one of two sisters who are neo shippers and are well known and hated among the intl twt ppls. they can even be spotted leaving comments on yt. they are obsessed with mentioning the lack of friendship whenever they don’t do anything together especially if with some other man. twt have said that you and them are the same and I just laughed.

and the arguing on twt is insane like he, literally as you said was doing a musical and he was also doing his own comeback but they say jelpi left it too long that’s what they didn’t include the others. no just let’s put more pressure on him shall we.

omg they left the others out lollll hakyeons priorities are in dramas and movies, redacted was literally enlisted. hongbin no matter how much they say haha let me be editions, is not coming back he’s happy being a twitch gamer. They’re constantly screaming about ot6 and ot5 all the time also them screaming about the lack of promotion from jelpi for the concert because some ppl didn’t know about it.. now them all arguing among themselves over this suspected draft dodging. It’s all ridiculous.

its crazy that neo shippers are so annoying even starlights, delusional weirdos they are, hate them. wait ME AND THIS WEIRDO ARE THE SAME???? FAVEEEE 😭😭😭im obsessed w twt fan bullshit. i say it would be hilarious if 90line were never seen in the same room again just to see shippers suffer but im the one crying over their 'friendship'. while also being hated for being a solo stan that doesn't like anyone else. WHICH IS ITTTT

but this discourse is fucking weird...theyre so obsessed with ot6 to the point of serious delusion. to ME, and to a lot of ppl, its kinda obvs hakyeons focused on acting likeeee he wasnt even rumored to be there when they were MEETING abt the concert lol. and im sure if he wanted to be there he could've negotiated a better date like no one (besides worried kfans) are bringing up leo doing 2 concert dates then immediately going back to west side story. that was fucking insane and im still trying to figure out what hakyeon was busy with lol. like im not gonna get on a high horse and be like u need to pull crazy leo workaholic stunts bc NO. no one should have a schedule like that but also...what the fuck is he doing? is the dress rehearsal for an awards show a month long commitment i truly do not know 😭😭😭and no one i peeped at has given a concrete answer on what he was so busy with

and its weird bc they're trying to absolve vixx of their decisions and blame it all on jelpi. nd jelpi IS very sus and they DO make a lot of bad decisions but in di end of the day if a vixx boy wants to be at a vixx event he gonna make a way to be there. its been 12 years their priorities have changed not everyone's first priority will be to their group 🤷🏾‍♀️that doesnt make them bad ppl imo at most its just kinda annoying that hakyeon just won't put in his resignation fr like put these girls out of their misery alreadydakdkmakm

cuz ultimately why the FAWK should they give up careers and opportunities? its unfair to EVERYONE like just bc [redacted] put off enlisting like the idiot he is should leo, hyuk, nd jaehwan be stuck in the basement doing nothing? and vice versa should hakyeon be forced to not pursue what he wants bc the rest want to be singers 4 life? should they all be jobless bc of fucking hongbin? be frrrrrrr these bitches are like toddlers istg let these men grow and be happy

😭 like your vixx boy not living up to YOUR expectations is a you problem. also how the hell did they not know abt that concert that was ALL over realvixx like??????? LOL????????

p.s. am i the only one annoyed by this idea that idol relationships are only 'valid' if they make themselves available for viewing to the public? like i don't immediately think vixx r beefing just bc they aren't seen with each other. i'll joke that hakyeon don't wanna dance but i'd never say he hates them cuzzzz i mean there's a whole world beyond what's shown on insta or twitter!!!! they could be texting all di time who knows! this entitlement to evidence of idol bonds pisses me off!!!

[the-firebird69]

Part 2. | Soobin Vers. | Yeonjun Vers.

Summary: 

You and Beomgyu never got along, if anything, you would call each other your number-one arch-nemesis. You two were known for being rivals, your reputations preceding the both of you regardless of how large your University is. One faithful day you're paired for a lab in your Intro to Biology class. Out of nowhere, Beomgyu’s relentless bickering has turned into flirting. You wonder why he’s acting this way all of a sudden, always gravitating toward you.  It’s as if he’s being controlled by a Voodoo Doll.

Note: 

This is my first time publishing original work on this account. I haven’t written smut for a very long time, so let’s be kind :]!!! Reblogs are very much appreciated! As a fellow 5sos stan to Moa, I hope you guys enjoy <3 Please don’t translate, copy, or post my work to other social media platforms.

“Well look who we have here.” Your ears perk up as a familiar voice enters your hearing range. Naturally, your eyes roll in annoyance, already able to identify who is walking up from behind you. 

“Beomgyu…” You turn around, your teeth gritting as you say his name. He grins from ear to ear like a Cheshire cat. His eyes shift to your left, seeing that there was an open seat next to you. He slides into the seat, giddy with excitement knowing that he has a full two hours' worth of time to annoy you. You groan as your hands run through your hair, realizing that this so-called GPA booster of a class is now going to be the hardest one you’ll be taking this semester. Knowing Beomgyu, he was going to one-up you in every single thing related to this class, your rivalry never seemed to take a break, not for anyone. Especially not for the two of you.

“What do you want now Beomgyu? You don’t even need to take this class.” His smug grin still hasn’t left his face as he turns to face you. 

“I don’t know…-” He ponders, “just thought it would be fun, you know how much I love science, especially biology.” Beomgyu’s eyebrows wiggle and you roll your eyes for what feels like the umpteenth time since he has arrived. Defeated, you sighed, forwarding your attention to the professor who was ready to start the class. 

𖧷. ﾟ⊹ 。𖧷. ﾟ⊹ 。i don’t know how you kept me up all night

The next day you walk into class already dreading what’s to come. Beomgyu already sitting cheerfully in the same spot as yesterday. You take this opportunity to change seats, mentally celebrating seeing an open spot closer to the front. You rejoice at your new-found desk and somehow, as if on queue you hear the scrape of a chair loudly behind you. You feel the presence of someone taking a seat beside you. You close your eyes more infuriated than ever, you already know who decided to switch from their original spot. Your eyes are still closed, trying not to send hellfire Beomgyu’s way, then you feel his breath suddenly tickle your ear. 

“Thought you could escape me, y/n?” Leaning forward, whispering in your ear only for you to hear. A shiver runs down your spine, and your ears turn red, from anger or embarrassment. At this moment you couldn’t tell. There was a foreign feeling brewing inside you that you did not want to acknowledge. Instead, you decided to finally answer Beomgyu. 

“Beomgyu, for the love of god, when are you going to let me have an ounce of peace?” Sighing defeatedly, staring straight at the board, not wanting to look at him. 

“What? Is it a crime that I want to sit beside you in this class?” He asks, faux innocence painting his face. You turn to him, seething with annoyance. If you weren’t in public you would smack the cocky smirk right off his face. The way his long hair perfectly fell, framing his face beautifully always pissed you off. The white highlights contrast his pitch-black hair and his broad shoulders turning to you. If Beomgyu wasn’t your number one arch-nemesis, you wouldn’t disagree with the fact that he's attractive. His large hands spun the pencil he was holding, still looking at you like he had won the argument.

“Yes, actually it is a crime. So go back to where you were before.” You tell him, not wanting to play into his game of cat and mouse. Trying to cut the conversation short, you start pulling out your notebook ready to start class. Beomgyu doesn’t seem to budge though, mimicking your actions. You decided once again to just ignore his presence, knowing that this class is your gateway to getting a 4.0 GPA. 

Students trickled in little by little and it was too early for you to lose any more brain cells talking to the menace beside you. Your professor begins to drone on about your next lab, highlighting that you will be put in sets of partners for a presentation on god knows what. Concentration wavers as Beomgyu decides to annoy you even further by pushing his eraser bits onto your side of the desk. In an attempt to retaliate, you mimic his actions pushing his eraser bits back to his side. Then if things couldn’t have gotten worse, as if satan was personally out to get you, your professor announces how the partners are determined.

“Please if everyone could partner up with their desk mate, it would be a perfect way to get to know each other this semester!” You halt your mission of giving back Beomgyu's stupid eraser bits and turn to him with fury behind your eyes. He turns to you simultaneously, throwing his head back, laughing in your face. He knows what he’s doing and you can’t help but naively fall into his trap every single time.  

“You better not drag me down in this class, I swear to god Beomgyu.” The fire in your eyes intensifies and Beomgyu fakes a scared expression on his face. His face moves closer to taunt you. 

“Or what y/n? Are you gonna tell on me?” His eyes raking your face, his goofy smile long gone, matching your expression. 

“Don’t be so rigid, you know I care about my grades too.” Beomgyu fights back, his eyes rolling as he turns to scribble more notes on this paper. You observe him for a second longer than usual before turning back to the notes. Huffing with irritation accepting the fact that Beomgyu won once again.

Beomgyu: 1, Y/n: 0.

The class had felt like an eternity finally came to an end. The sun shone high through the large windows indicating that its almost noon. You begin to hurriedly pack up your things, wanting to leave as soon as possible. A large hand pauses your actions and you look up at Beomgyu with confusion. His face is unreadable as he towers over you. He always knew how to make you feel small next to him.

“Meet me here later so we can get started on our project. ten p.m.” That is all he says before he walks away, not bothering to look back. You heave a heavy sigh, not being able to keep up with Beomgyu’s random waves of hot and cold behaviour. ten p.m. is such a random time to start on a project, you thought, but you didn’t want to protest knowing this may be the only way that this project would come out decent. 

𖧷. ﾟ⊹ 。𖧷. ﾟ⊹ 。 i don’t even like you, why’d you want to go and make me feel this way?

Ten p.m. rolls around faster than you anticipated and now you're sitting outside the lecture hall waiting for Beomgyu’s arrival. Footsteps start to faintly echo the hallway, getting louder as they approach you. You look up from your phone seeing Beomgyu walk towards you with his skateboard in one hand and a book bag across his shoulder. His baggy clothes somehow suited him perfectly, and the moonlight shining through the window causes him to look more handsome than usual. For the first time, your heart races at the sight of him, and you mentally shake yourself out of your trance. 

“Sorry I’m late, the guys convinced me to head to the skate park with them for a bit.” He scratched the back of his neck, genuinely feeling sorry for making you wait. Your eyes widen trying to think back to the last time you heard Beomgyu apologize. You stand up and shrug, dusting yourself off before heading inside the classroom. He eyes you up and down taking notice of your outfit change. The tight crop top hugs your every curve and your skirt giving a full display of your plush thighs. Beomgyu gulps but not loud enough for you to notice. He checks you out silently as you turn your back toward him.

“It’s fine, let’s just get this project over and done with, I have like a million other things that I need to catch up on.” You respond nonchalantly, taking a seat at a random desk and preparing to pull out your laptop. 

“Why did you want to meet me for our project so late anyway?” You continue, asking him out of curiosity. He sits next to you and shrugs his shoulders, not paying attention to you. Or trying hard not to pay attention to you? You wouldn’t know, of course. 

“Dunno, I had a bunch of other shit I needed to get done first, this was the only time that worked,” Beomgyu concludes, not wanting to further elaborate. 

“Ok, how about we just start then? The faster we finish the sooner we can get home.” You huff, annoyed that for once he isn’t his usual light-hearted annoying self. This is the first time you’ve seen Beomgyu not instigate an argument between you two. Maybe he was serious about getting a good grade on this project, you thought. Whatever it was, you decided to ignore it and finally start on the damned thing. 

Finally, Beomgyu decides to break the silence. His body turns in his chair, facing towards you, eyes piercing. You turn to do the same and notice the way he begins to look you up and down slowly. What has gotten into him? You thought. Unconsciously you shuffle a bit in your chair and your skirt unintentionally hikes up your bare thighs. Beomgyus's eyes drift down to your legs seeing the way the skirt lamely attempted to cover you. 

“Yknow y/n, if I didn’t know any better, I would think you wore that skirt on purpose.” His voice drops an octave lower and your eye widen. You shook your head in protest, your mouth feeling like a ball of cotton. Beomgyu chuckles, his gaze still firmly on you. Your hands break into a sweat, and now you’re thoroughly confused. What the hell is up with him, you wonder. 

“I don’t even like you y/n and yet you’re making me feel this way.” He leans in, your faces aren’t more than a few inches apart. You can feel his breath graze over you. Mentally you scream at yourself. Why aren’t you pushing him away? Why aren’t you telling him that he’s wrong and being weird? Instead here you are drinking in all his features. This is the first time you’ve seen Beomgyu so up close and holy shit he’s so attractive. 

Before you could even recognize your actions, you feel yourself lean in closer. His eyes fall to your lips and back up at you. It felt like time had slowed and the only people that existed on this earth were you and your stupid arch-nemesis. 

“Beomgyu…” you trail off, not knowing how you were going to finish your sentence. Your eyes copy Beomgyu’s and they look down at his soft lips. They looked so pink and delectable at that moment. 

“Y/n just shut up for one second.” He says, grunting as he grabs your face and pulls you into a kiss. You whimper, the sudden action of him kissing you harshly catches you off guard. Before you know it your melting into the kiss letting his hands move down to your waist…then underneath your top. His touch feels like electricity and he holds your bare waist. Catching your breath you pull away from the kiss, heaving you notice the way he’s looking at you. His eyes half-lidded and adorned with lust, he takes your hand and pulls you onto his lap. You lean back in to kiss him again. Your thighs straddle his lap as his hands slowly find their way under your skirt. He groans into the kiss as he realizes you aren't wearing anything underneath. He massages your ass as you continue to make out with him. 

“Fuck you y/n. Why aren’t you wearing anything underneath?” he pulls away looking at you. All you can do is giggle and lean back in for more. The kiss seems to deepen the more time goes on and his tongue is tangling with yours. He takes the opportunity to slap your ass, you jolt at the burning sensation but moan into the kiss, wiggling your hips onto him as you feel him growing harder underneath you. Beomgyu’s grip on your thighs tighten as he pressed your now soaking core against his clothed length. You begin to move your hips even more, wanting to increase the friction. 

“You’re being very bad y/n…” Beomgyu whispers in your ear as you hide your face in the crook of his neck while continuing to rock your hips. You moan in response.  The euphoric feeling is gone abruptly and you look up at him and pout at the sudden loss of sensation. He has a tight grip on your hips once again making sure you aren’t able to grind yourself against him. 

“Why’d you stop me?” You look at him with lust and desperation, a pout settling onto your lips. His smirk finally makes an appearance as he drinks in the flush on your cheeks as well as the cute pout your lips formed. He slaps your ass sharply once again causing you to yelp. 

“Because you’re being a bad girl. Teasing me with your short skirt and not even wearing anything underneath. You’re secretly a little slut, aren’t you y/n?” He spits, staring at you waiting for you to answer. You nod slowly, feeling the wetness pooling at your core. 

“Answer me properly or I’ll leave you here all hot and bothered.” He threatens, leaning back, removing his hands from your body making you whimper at the loss of contact. 

“Yes, I am,” you say shyly, averting his gaze. His hand roughly takes your face into his hand, pinching your cheeks between his thumb and fingers. Your eyebrows scrunch at his harsh grip but it still leaves you more turned on than ever. 

“Say it properly, love, or I’m not giving you what you want,” he pressures, your face still in his hands as he moves your face back and forth. 

“Yes Gyu, I’m a slut. Please let me keep going, please.” You whine and beg, your hips attempting to wiggle against him. Your cunt clenching around nothing, trying to find a source of relief. 

“Good girl.” His smug smirk still stuck on his face. He moves you over to his thigh, your bare pussy rubbing against his rough jeans. He moves his leg up and down as you grind against him. He pulls you back into a heated kiss, not being able to get enough of the way you taste against his tongue. He gets even harder thinking of what you would taste like if he were to eat you out. Your breathing becomes erratic and you speed up your movements already starting to feel yourself getting closer to release.

“G-gyu I’m gonna-” you stutter, trying harder to chase your high. In a blink of an eye, it’s gone. Beomgyu pulls you off his lap and you whine, feeling unsatisfied. 

“Don't worry love, you’ll get to cum soon.” he chuckles, relishing in how needy you’re getting. He lifts you onto the desk and places himself in between your thighs, connecting your lips with his once again. You moan into his lips as you feel him move past your skirt once again, his fingers gather your wetness before plunging in. You pull away from his lips to moan, a string of saliva still connecting the both of you. His fingers curl inside your warmth hitting the spongy spot inside you. It causes you to lean into his chest, your moans and the sound of his fingers squelching inside are the only things to be heard inside the room. 

“You wanna cum so badly don’t you princess?” Beomgyu chides, thoroughly enjoying how obedient you get when he's pleasuring you. You moan in response, nodding your head. The feeling of his fingers hitting that perfect spot left you speechless. 

“Answer me when I’m talking to you.” He demands. “Or I’m taking my fingers out.” he threatens as you feel him slowly starting to pull out. 

“Y-yes, I wanna cum so bad, please I need it. I need you Beomgyu.” You lift your head, biting your lips and he groans at the fucked out expression that adorns your cute face. 

“What do you need love?” He pushes in further, trying to get a certain response out of you. You whine again, moving your hips to try and imitate the feeling of how Beomgyu's fingers were thrusting into you moments ago. He tsks, removing his hand from your sopping cunt. You give up on whatever shred of dignity you had left. The urge to cum was starting to get harder to ignore after Beomgyu had edged you twice already. 

“Need your cock gyu, please. I want you inside me.” You beg, finally answering him properly. 

“That's all you needed to tell me, love. I’m all yours.” the smug look on his face never left. He kisses you again, not being able to get enough of the way your lips feel on his. The way your chest brushes against his. His dick feels like it was about to explode, this very scenario being something he thought would only happen in his wildest dreams. He wanted to take his time and feel every crevice of your body instead of admiring from afar. His lips slowly make their way down your neck and you move to give him better access. A content sigh leaves your lips as his hands trail down to the end of your top. You pull away to remove it and he's left to look at how good you look shirtless. He dives back into kissing your neck, his hands moving to grab a handful of your breasts. Beomgyu happily kneads them, thankful that you’re not wearing a bra. You let a moan as he plays with your nipples, continuing to leave marks on your neck and over your breasts. 

As if it's been an eternity later he allows you to take off his shirt and unbutton his jeans. They pool to his ankles along with his boxers. You look down and a tiny gasp leaves your lips as you realize how big he is. Now you’re left wondering how he’s going to fit all of that inside you. 

“Don't worry love, I can make it fit,” he says not so reassuringly. You nod, gulping in response knowing you probably aren’t going to be able to walk the next day. He leans you back on the desk, and your back hits the cold wood. He roughly yanks your legs, causing you to yelp. Your lower half is now flush with his, your thighs locked in his iron grip. You can feel his dick against your pussy, bumping into your folds slightly but not enough to satisfy you. You try to move your hips to indicate you want him inside you. Beomgyu shakes his head, the smirk dancing across his lips once again. 

“What did I tell you about patience?” he scolds you. Finally, he rubs himself up and down your slit lubricating himself, his cock painfully hard. He pushes past your entrances, and you both moan in relief finally able to feel each other. His cock splits you in half and it stings almost immediately. Your vision blurs from the pain mixed with pleasure. Beomgyu doesn’t give you time to adjust to the newfound sensation, he begins to thrust into you steadily. His head falls back not being able to get enough of your plush walls. Your moaning not being able to drown out the lewd sounds of Beomgyu's cock fucking you in the most perfect way. You clench around him and Beomgyu looks down to watch himself slide in and out of you. It's like he's in a trance, drunk off the feeling of your pussy swallowing him whole. You can't help but tighten your legs around his waist pulling him in as close as you can.

“Holy fuck you're so tight baby, this is just for me, isn’t it? I’m the only one who can get you this wet?” Beomgyu groans, his thrusts starting to speed up. All you can do is moan, your eyes rolling to the back of your head as the tip of his dick hits you at the perfect angle. His cock kisses your cervix with every thrust and you can feel his balls slap against you. You're a moaning mess under him, attempting and then failing to meet the ruthless snap of his hips. This is the first time you've been able to actually enjoy sex, even though the person who is currently fucking you is practically your enemy. If you had been told yesterday that you would experience the best sex of your life with Beomgyu, you would've doubled over in laughter. But now, you can't help but get excited thinking about the next time you'll be able to get under him like this.

“Y-yes Gyu! All for you, you fuck me so good. I-I’m so full.” you practically scream as he fills your cunt up to the hilt. His hands move your legs around his waist as he leans over slightly to wrap his hands around your neck. His thrusts somehow pick up even more speed and your eyesight starts to go splotchy. His cock is fucking you so deliciously and your head feels light with the way his hands are tightening around your neck. You feel like you’re about to ascend to heaven with the way he's fucking you right now. The years of bickering and frustration were all taken out with this one single fuck. And oh, does it feel good to let out all your frustrations. 

Your hands are gripping his arms and you can feel yourself falling over the edge once again. The familiar sensation building up in your stomach. Beomgyus is groaning above you, savouring your tight cunt with every single thrust he’s taking. 

“Beomgyu I’m gonna cum.” you manage to squeak out, his hands leaving your neck and are placed at your thighs. 

“Cum for me darling. Fuck. I love your tight pussy. This is all for me. No one is going to be able to fuck you the way I do.” Beomgyu leans forward to whisper in your ear and all you can do is simply moan. Your head nods, not able to agree verbally. He brings his hand down to your clit thumbing circles into it, sending your climax into overdrive. Your vision turns white with pleasure. If you didn't know any better you would have thought you were experiencing some sort of wet dream. At last, you feel yourself finally let go and cum. The pleasure washes over you as you clench down on Beomgyu’s cock. He grunts, his thrusts starting to get sloppier as time passes. Finally, he lets out a whine, his cum filling you till it leaks past your entrance. This doesn’t stop him as he slowly starts sliding into you again, fucking his cum back up into you. You squirm under him feeling overstimulated after your orgasm. He stops and pulls out, looking down at you the lust still blazing in his eyes. You sit up slightly, your elbows holding you up. Beomgyu stares at you intensely drinking in the view of you laying in front of him. Your legs are slightly ajar, a full display of his cum running down your pussy and pooling onto the desk. The sight of you under him like this has the possibility of making him hard once again. He could fuck you for days if he was able to, your heat becoming his new favourite drug.

He takes his hand and shoves his fingers into your leaking cunt, collecting the mix of liquids still spilling from your hole. Removing them, he brings his fingers up to your mouth while parting your lips, shoving past them. You look up at him through your eyelashes, feigning innocence as you suck the cum off his fingers. He can't help but release a groan, his dick twitching eagerly once again. Now that he's had a taste of you, he's not going to let you go so easily.

You release his fingers with a pop, smiling up at him. Who knew the Choi Beomgyu would be the one to give you mind-blowing sex for the first time in your life.

“You’ve got to have a Voodoo doll or something because I just had the best fuck of my life.” He sighs before leaning back into you for another kiss.

Pulling away, he smirks at you.

“What am I going to do with you now y/n...” he chuckles. You look up at him once more, trying not to smile too hard. This seems to be just the beginning of your new arrangement with Beomgyu.

people who hate on grace van dien are so wild dude.

they’re literally making her out to be this evil creep with a victim complex and it’s getting so out of hand.

grace is one of the sweetest celebrities we’ve encountered in recent years, she clearly has a good heart and it shows in everything she does.

furthermore, she’s a grownup, and it’s so unlikely that she has a crush on joseph. she may think he’s attractive but honestly, who tf doesn’t? and if endorsing eddissy has anything to do with attraction to the other’s actor, joe has the hots for her too (not shipping just following their logic).

the two of them are clearly good friends who agree on this aspect of their characters. (remember grace and joseph have known each other for upwards of 2 years now, they aren’t new friends by any means)

grace also never bashes on other eddie ships, never comments on steddie or anything, she’s literally just enjoying her content and defending herself from people who are being shit to her.

she actively condemned doxxing from anyone who calls themselves a fan of hers and literally begged for people to just chill and be nice to each other, i honestly admire her for not snapping on these people because i would’ve by now.

she’s genuinely scared to go to a con with joe now because she’s been getting death threats over a fictional ship!!! that’s some fuckin 2014 ass outdated shit dude.

i’ve already written my eddissy defense posts, this is fully defending grace, who i’ve honestly come to look up to a lot these past couple months, and who i may have like a teeny tiny crush on? (look she’s pretty and sweet and generally really lovable it was bound to happen)

also also she stated she was picked to play chrissy because she was the only person who characterized CHRISSY as sweet and kind, but people twisted it to sound like she said she was chosen because SHE was sweet, which she is, but that isn’t what was said.

also any talk about her being a nepo baby should also be extended to maya hawke (who i adore) if you’re gonna talk about it at all, maya’s parents are insanely famous, and i honestly didn’t know who grace’s dad was until i looked it up, so if anything maya’s higher on the ‘nepotism baby’ list than grace.

(side note this is not something they should get hate for, they are both talented actresses in their own right and deserve to be treated as such)

on the topic of her twitch, THATS HER JOB!

her taking donations and having subgoals is what makes her twitch a job!!

she does act, but that isn’t all she does, and since she clearly isn’t living off her parents, she does need money to live on, meaning that twitch is currently her main source of income, bashing her for receiving money thru twitch because “she just got a big paycheck from stranger things and it just doesn’t sit right with me that she’s asking for donos’ is such a teenager mentality. adults need money to live, and adults need continuous income to continue supporting themselves.

she’s clearly not getting promo from her dad or anything either, girl was promoting HIM. she’s talented of her own accord and it annoys the hell out of me that people insist she’s only successful because of her dad.

she’s charismatic, sweet, clearly a very talented actress, and in the words of joseph quinn himself, brilliant!!

joe clearly likes and respects grace, and he would be disgusted at the way people are treating his friend over a ship he also supports!

y’all going ‘this isn’t you babe 🥺’ whenever joe says eddissy would be cute but then viciously attacking grace for the same damn thing REEKS of misogyny.

i’m sticking with grace here and i’m also sticking to my guns that eddissy is a perfectly fine ship unless the duffer brothers create a show bible that states it isn’t, as far as we know the duffers and netflix itself is in full support of the ship, meaning it’s most likely not illegal or creepy as that would not be good for their brand.

anyway stan @quirly and be quiet thanx babes
