#you 🤝 me: writing long asks/answers <3< /div> Explore tagged Tumblr posts

[subway-boss-jericho]

SORRY ABOUT STEADY TRACKS if u want I can… send an ask in about it… if it would help… maybe… 

Going on the coupled (Uncoupled) post- struggling to communicate turning into an Issue that makes it Harder to communicate but then the characters realizing they Really Have To Communicate and Doing so even tho it’s hard is. So good. It’s especially interesting here with emmet kinda dealing with trying to figure out how to reverse the fusion Without any real input from ingo. 

(I do freaking feel you Emmet. Forgetting that people have you Explicit Permission and Freaking out despite being aware they knew the risks. Man. It’s rough.) 

Love seeing stories about their relationship. How much do you love your brother? How well do you know him? Just how far would you go? … could you forgive yourself? Could he..?

Mmmmm tasty. Especially since the answer is often “yes” jejdjdnenidjx

It’s also nice to see a story where initially trying something that seems like a good solution didn’t work! And possibly made the situation worse! (Or perhaps is exactly what they needed to get talking with one another) 

No one is perfect! It’s so fun to see what these two characters who love each other would do. 

On that- I. Feel you incredibly hard about the romantic aspects of “love”. It’s… very sad to see how little people feel friends can do with one another without it being “romantic” in nature. Even more so for siblings. I’ve also written fics where I read it back and I’m like “will people misinterpret this? Will they think that this is wrong?” And it sucks. It really does. (I usually put a “this is Not romantic in nature” and have to trust that people won’t assume things.

“I can't really control what other people will think, say, or do. I just hope they don't get me involved”

as you said, about sums it up.) 

(ok now. Gimme a sec to whip up something for two left hands jejdjsjdnbxns)

Don't worry about it! Firstly, you can do whatever you want forever <3 Secondly, it is never anyone else's fault if my brain switches tracks. I mentioned Coupled (Uncoupled) offhand on a totally unrelated ask and then hyperfixated on them for the rest of the week sdjhgsdg That's just how my brain does stuff sometimes, which is the real reason why working on big long-term projects (in this case, Steady Tracks) take a while. Thirdly, this is the most anyone who doesn't know me personally has ever interacted with any of my not-steady tracks AUs, so please know that I would go through the trenches on your behalf

I got mentally ill again + was busy the next day so I blame my delay in answering this ask on getting so excited that I genuinely didn't know how to respond right away ksjdhgsdgh

So hard to write good conflict! So funny when I look back on how I write conflict and it ends up being inextricably tied to my life experiences 🤣 (wheeze) Art can tell you a lot about the artist?? really? that's crazy who would have guessed /j /s The struggle with him trying to reverse fusion is the first "major arc" that I mentioned on one of the other posts. It's one of the shortest ones, thankfully, yet also has an extremely dense angst content sjkdgsdg Unfortunately it's easy to spiral when you believe everything going wrong is your fault. it's a bit hard for me to talk about much more without starting to spoil the story and I'm trying so hard not to 😂 The love was always there! It always has been and always will be! But Emmet needs to stop feeling guilty so he can accept that love and move on, and Ingo is going to keep doing his best to try and communicate + show support in the meantime.

The splicers initially making things worse is definitely one of the funnest parts of the AU for me :] it was supposed to help Emmet feel more secure, and yet instead it made everything way more complicated + made him feel way less secure... I can't pretend to be normal, I'm very fucked up about them

🤝I won't drag out the romantic/platonic discussion because I know it makes people uncomfortable to discuss- more than fair, it makes ME uncomfortable to discuss -but hell yeah solidarity. It's at least nice to be able to voice my stance on it, since I feel like it's hard to even bring up in the fandom. I love a civil discussion about hard topics :D love setting boundaries. Peace and love

Thank you as always for the asks!! 🌠✨

Coupled (Uncoupled)Masterpost

[devilbombers]

Hhhhiiiiii!!! This is the same anon from the yuri ask!!! 1st thank u soo much for answering my question 💕 & 2nd PLS DO GO OFF about how u feel negatively towards yuri PLSSSSSS!!! *clutches on to your shoulders like a mad man* it's not that I don't want to feel bored with yuri I genuinely WISH I could find a good yuri series but it's sooo hard & at some point u do get kind of tired of digging through all the other garbage yuri series that's out there & when u do find a good yuri series it's either some obscure yuri series that nobody's ever heard of that came out in the 90s/00s or the series got canceled due to poor sales/the publishing company just didn't give a fuck about it in the 1st place. Which is y it ALWAYS grinds my gears when I c ppl b like "would u himejoshis stop bitching because your yuri series aren't as popular as the BL/yaoi genre, y don't u just make your own yuri series/write your own yuri fanfics 🙄" like BRUH WHAT DO U THINK I'M TRYING TO DO?!?!? Sorry I actually have standards for the media I consume & not consume the same uke & seme toxic yaoi skinny twink series for the 500 millionth time in a row

I could cry over how much i understand you. (you are right and you should say that abt bl) this world is too cruel. Real Himejoshis like us need to stick together 🤝 i can send you all 5 series i can think of thats actually good if youd like.

tyvm for indulging my manic frusturations. This is certainly gonna be a long post saurrrr ill have to put it under a read more lmao. You asked for it so the gloves are completely off with this one and i thought abt it again and i actually dont care if anyone thinks im wrong.

I've come to the sad realization yuri can only REALLY be categorized like the following:

#1: yuri that is boring

unfortunately the usual case with 90% of yuri especially with new series

usually plays upon overused tropes making everything abt it lack any uniqueness to it

it is such an epidemic its forced himejoshis to become resigned to accepting these things into their hearts and even pretending its the shit when really its just shit 😭

its hard to give examples bc this makes up almost all yuri i can think of

#2: Non-Existent yuri

A series with really gay girls but they dont ever explicitly say theyre in love.

ex. dungeon meshi

Most himejoshis will on in the hill of saying they love subtext but we all know and especially themselves know that isnt true

#3: Yuri that is unserious as fuck

Theres a lot of drama yuri out there but it is always so fucking unserious it just ends up being funny as fuck instead

ex. Onii-Sama E and my girlfriend isnt here today

quite often this type is also associated with erotic media. But theyre so goddamn unserious it dosent matter how sexy either of them are, it immediately makes them so unsexy the minute they start talking.

i would only say ive succumbed to believe i love this genre bc i love to laugh at it sm

#4: Yuri where one or sometimes BOTH of them are dead 💀

i literally dont care i hate the "bury your gays" trope so much. it just aggravates the shit out of me bc what is even the point anymore then

great example of this is Alien stage

personally i feel like the only yuri that can exist like this and is actually genuinely good is obviously PMMM (i will fight everyone on the planet over this IDC)

#5: side character yuri

sort of a popular trend. kind of goes hand in hand with non-existent yuri but personally i think they count as different entities sometimes

extremely minor plot points or concurrent small interactions between side characters thats kind of gay as shit

theyre either EXTREMELY GAY or just a little gay theres no inbetween (either way, people will lie one way or another to say its really good)

despite the fact this yuri is quite ephemeral or absolutely nothing some ppl will still call this media wholly yuri for whatever maniacal reason

#6: YURI THATS TOO FUCKING SHORT

Unfortunately the best type of yuri also happens to be too goddamn short (usually limited to oneshots, anthologies, manga series no more than 25 chapters)

All my favorite yuri happens to be like this and i always scream at god for making life like this

If i hate anything in this world its liars, so i probably hate other himejoshis very much bc i keep constantly reading suggestions people hype up on the internet and ultimately being disappointed every single time because its never as good or unique as anyone says.

Its easy to say i hate them but its probably pity. I pity my fellow man that i consistently watch them fall for yuri underneath a wooden box held up with a stick and rope.

With all this being realized; its hard to ignore the truth of it all when trying to get into yuri regardless of it. So ive finally decided to stop listening to literally anyone anymore and ive ultimately stopped seeking it out bc im tired lmao

20 questions for fic writers

Tagged by nobody! I saw this and felt like doing it to get back in the writing groove of things and maybe procrastinate just a teeny bit ♡

Tagging @babblish @dreamcrow @niemalsetwas @mangatxt @plantpretender and anyone else who would like to!! Also no hard feelings if you don't feel like doing this

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

32 and counting!

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

605,281 and counting!

3. What fandoms do you write for?

I used to do a LOT of Tales of Arcadia (Cartoons) but a few things happened in the show / movie that made me feel... idk, I'm on a bit of a break for the time being. I also write a couple of Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game) fics to explore my silly DnD OCs While my current writing obsessions being Discworld - Terry Pratchett and モブサイコ100 | Mob Psycho 100 

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Unbecoming 2 Electric Boogaloo (ToA)

Terpsichore - The Comedy of the Danse Macabre - ACT I (ToA)

Cold Green Tea and Colder Feet (mp100)

We'll Meet Again (ToA)

A Study of Avium and Apium (ToA)

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I do!! I try to respond to all comments!! I can't always promise my response will be prompt, and sometimes I get in my own head and feel...worried? As if my response will somehow sway someone to not want to keep reading? But that's a me thing I'm working through Long answer short: Yes! I do respond to comments!! I adore them and they make me so very very happy!! Honestly a comment can be such a game changer, and a relief to my heart and I just HAVE to express my gratitude for taking the time to tell me such nice words!! I'll always try to respond to them!

6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Hmmm I have yet to finish the fic with the angstiest ending planned. I don't tend to write angst unless there is an ending that has some level of hope and happiness in it - for now.

But yeah, I suppose Unbecoming 2 Electric Boogaloo and The Last Changeling will eventually have some pretty angsty endings.

As well as several fics within the The Collected Tellings of Shigir and Other Changeling Folktales series which can be quite grim.

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

Another tricky question!! The majority my fics tend to have a happy ending planned despite the highs and lows I hope I manage to put my readers through.

Bit of a cop out answer I know, but it is what it is lol

8. Do you get hate on fics?

I've only had that happen to me once lol. Once so far and for the silliest reason that left me just shaking my head for the most part

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

I do! Not as often as my other stuff though. Hmm quite a bit of orgasm control I suppose.

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

IVE WRITTEN ONE CROSSOVER AND ITS MY FAVORITE AND I HOPE THE STARS ALIGN FOR ME TO FINISH IT!!!

A Funny Old World MY BELOVED!!! It is essentially the Discworld and Mp100 crossover fic no one asked for hahaha

Quite literally "Reigen Arataka 🤝 Moist von Lipwig" the fic

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that...I'm aware of...

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Again not that I'm aware of...and no one has yet to approach me to do so. Though sometimes I think of translating it myself into Italian.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

I have! It was a great time with @megan0013 on the 23rd chapter of their fic Fallout where we combined the Fallout story with my made up Changeling Folktales.

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

I'm too bisexual for this question, I have, like, a fat stack of ships I adore. But of the ones I've written (in no specific order of importance) I really love Adora Belle and Moist, Serizawa and Reigen, Barbara and Strickler, Mort and Ysabell, Polly and Mal, and the list just goes on haha

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

I don't think I appreciate the defeatist tone of this question haha. I'm sure I'll finish all of them...eventually. Some go in hibernation a little longer than others, that I won't lie. Hmm though, I'm going to be honest with myself the Terpsichore series seems to be the loftiest of goals at the moment. Who even knows when I'll finally finish it...but, like I said, I'd like to hold out hope that, someday it'll get done lol

16. What are your writing strengths?

I've been told I'm quite good at keeping characters in character, and my writing 'voice' is quite charming sometimes. I've also been told I'm quite good at writing cozy comfort fics. I hope, one day, I'll be able to add horror and suspense to the list of writing strengths.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Making things concise, I think. Sweet short and to the point. I'd love to get better at suspense and horror, just making readers sweat - you know?

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

Oh man I have a lot of Thoughts about this actually XPP here's hoping they make sense!!

Depends on the characters, and what language they are speaking and what language the characters know beyond what they are speaking.

I viscerally do not appreciate it when, okay... here's an example: Character A and Character B are both speaking Italian, because the characters are Italian - so even though the fic and author is writing in English we ALL know that Character A and Character B are speaking Italian - so why add in an English dialogue bits of actual Italian?? We all know they are speaking Italian to begin with!! UNLESS, for instance, Character B for a moment spoke in a regional dialect which is different than the standard language.

I tend to call this the "Silenzio Bruno!" situation. Why are you having a character who is supposedly already speaking in a language suddenly say something of that language. It shouldn't be "Silenzio Bruno!" but "Quiet Bruno!" though in some cases I get it...and who knows maybe it'll perk up the interest of people and kids to learn other languages but oof does it rub me the wrong way sometimes

Wait hmmm perhaps thats too confusing

OKAY

EXAMPLE: In Glow Worms I have Serizawa as half Brazilian (there's in fact a huge Brazilian population within Japan! As well as a huge Japanese population within Brazil! Here are two fascinating video essays on the subject if interested [X] [X]).

When Serizawa is speaking with Reigen it is clear and obvious they would speak Japanese amongst themselves and around them, I wouldn't include actual Japanese unless it's a word that I can't really translate well, or is very clearly specific within the Japanese language (the difference between writing 'screen door' and 'shoji door' - both doors, but evoke different specific things). However, when Serizawa speaks with his mother there are often times Portuguese would crop up - an indicator that Serizawa is no longer speaking Japanese in that moment, or phrase or sentence.

The same can be said with Moist von Lipwig, and when he's speaking Morporkian vs Überwaldian. It is agreed that everyone tends to speak Morporkian to some degree as a defect-o Lingua Franca Quirma, and when they're not they're very clearly not!

NOW! In those moments when characters are speaking another language I prefer either it's something that can be figured out via context clues, or a translation is provided either in a footnote or by the character(s) themselves. This is something I feel more confident with if a character is speaking Italian, because then I don't have to worry about translator engines not translating something properly lol But I try to be as respectful and accurate as possible, and if I can't then I wouldn't attempt it and describe in the text that Character A and Character B are speaking another language amongst themselves.

OR (and this is something else I'm doing in Glow Worms) I'll describe a character speaking another language, and another character acts as translator - this is something I always adored in Discworld when characters interact with The Librarian as well as Death of Rats.

Which, again, I try to approach as respectfully as possible. Language is important!! It's a culture and a thought process! And should always be treated with respect

WHEW! I hope this all made sense!!

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Trollhunters!

20. Favourite fic you've ever written?

I don't know about Favorite, but there are several that I'm very proud of myself with...

The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Stupid Kid [working title] series, Hand Rolled, The Runaway's Gamble, AU REVOIR, to name a few. Several Trollhunter fics (especially Terpsichore, sometimes I look back on that and go "Wow I really wrote All of THAT?!")

And most recently: Glow Worms or rather: In the Depths of the Safflower Hills a fic that honestly? I find myself going back and rereading what I've written and posted more than once! And has helped me grow as a writer I think  

Welp! ___〆(・∀・) That's it for me folks! Thank you so VERY much for your interest, and I look forward to seeing your answers as well!

Best wishes! Nico ♡

🍓🛼🪐 for the ask game!

🍓 = how did you get into fanfic writing?

To be fair, I answered this in another ask so I am going to lazy and copy that answer here. 🙂

Going deep here aren’t you Em? 👀 lol I’ve enjoyed writing since I was little as an extension of my love of reading. First with poems and the anime fanfiction when I actually watch more anime. Now I read more manga and don’t write fanfiction about it. If one squints on A03 - I may have dabbled in Marvel characters and actors for a short time. 🫢 The took a long pause as life happened. Sometime last year as my mental health improved so did my love of writing and I hyper focused on Pedro Pascal so here we are. 🤣 I write more the better my mood is. Maybe a bit too much background 😵

🛼= describe your latest WIP with five emojis

🏠👓👦🏽📦🤝

Is this confusing? Yes. 😈 But it’s okay, as it only refers to the first chapter but you know, I don’t make sense. 🤣 It’s my Modern Din where he moves to OFC’s neighborhood after she’s had some circumstances lead her to moving in with her aunt who live next to Din and Grogu. ☺️

🪐= name three good things going on in your life right now

1. My long awaited vacation is almost here! It will start the end of next week. Feel free to tag me in things and message me but responses will be slow. I’ll be out of the country for 2 weeks. 😆 I’ve been looking forward to this for months. I need a break.

2. Actually precepting (teaching new nurses or new to specialty nurses the ropes of the unit) I work on a medical-surgical unit so we see everything under the sun. It can be daunting, very weird, hilarious and disturbing all in the same hour. But I feel like becoming a resource to other nurses and to staff on the unit was a good decision ☺️ As tough as it is, I enjoy it.

3. Family and friends: I speak to my parents a couple times a week and still go on trips with them so I’m always thankful to spend more time with them when I’m able and while they’re still healthy enough to do so. Both real life and online friends are blessing because I can chat about anything either really. No judgement from either - would they tell me if they did? Maybe 🤔 I’m curious now that I mention it. Pfft. 🤣

You almost always make me think about what I should be thankful for in your asks @soft-girl-musings ❤️ Thanks for that.

Fanfic writer ask game

[beartitled]

Hey........ it's me YeetTheBeet again! (OMFG I gotta stop sending more asks than I should be sending O MY GOODNESS-) Thanks for answering yet AGAIN! Your amazing and thank you for taking your time for answering this ask, even though it looks like it's 3:00 where you are IDK XD! Though the beet is one of my forms I take, I'm actualy a being able to change form to anything I want at will, just thought you like to know because I'm a silly goober. ANYWAYS, thanks again, and I just wanted to say you should not spend all your time on me to be honest, you've got much more important things to be talking about than my asks, but thank you, thank you for replying! (Also, thanks for reading this long ass ask if you can, your a real trooper. And the "beet" in my username was supposed to be "beat", dang auto correct! XD)

From one of your loyal followers again, Yeethe"Beat".

Aww it’s alright❤️

YeetThe”Beet” 🤝 bear”tilted”

Mixing each other’s username

I like interacting with my followers, especially when they’re being nice and write such huge essays in my ask, so don’t worry about being annoying

But I do get a feeling this is getting a bit too long

So final sketch, final thanks ❤️💕💞❤️

[ambersky0319]

you 🤝 loving elizabeth and meliodas but thinking that nakaba could have done. so much more/better with them 🤝 me

For real though Elizabeth is also one of my favorite characters and definitely deserved a better character arc!! Hell just even keeping her personality from the first story arc would have been great - she was originally so gutsy (went searching for the sins and literally could have died from it. w the weird fangs she took a hit to the head to get the bell. she was willing to sacrifice herself for meliodas when hendrickson was gonna win) and that all just seemed to go away over the course of the series-

Anyways. I fully agree and could also write a dissertation about Elizabeth. If you ever wanna rant about how you'd write her arc better I would be a very engaging listener I promise <3

If you have that fic about Nezuko posted I'll have to read it 👀 I love that she learned sign and I love a good fic that explores sibling dynamics!!! And also I just love seeing how people explore the potential that canon failed to use lol

Love the disclaimer about Sukuna - I guess a lot of people ~like~ him lmao? But also oooooo hero snd villain in the same body??? Definitely agree hard to do and its awesome that was able to be captured through him!

Ah yes, the ol written by a man disease (/jk)(mostly)(Nakaba does drop the ball with such a cool concept though with Meliodas)

and 👀👀 that show sounds absolutely fascinating and the fact that you couldn't pick a favorite character????? i may just have to watch it cause i love a show with all excellently written characters

Well happy early (i think?) birthday to Hikari!!! We love a character that you can always return to no matter how much time has passed. I completely understand that (lookin at you Evanna) but also!! it's also just really awesome that an oc sticks with you for so long. its really special imo

Lmao yes yoink the name i love it. I read a fic (its unfinished unfortunately but still so good) and the author used variations of tristain for ALL of the melizabeth kids. really a great name. And of course, of course! Gotta put blond men into situations, they don't get enrichment otherwise!

If it says anything about you then it must say some stuff about me too, but really, it's just so fun putting characters through the Horrors. And at 10???? poor girl but also. just imagining what her mannerisms and psyche would be like when shes older are fascinating concepts imo. Good luck with writing her story!!!!

No no apology needed it was for the good of the plot (i say, knowing that i probably owe a lot of my own ocs apologies for doing worse) fr though love you can get some versatility with her!!

social worker fr the real one 🙏 and curse the middle school computer for flagging it - hope it wasnt deleted (im guessing not but ya never know witj schools yknow?)

Thank you for answering my ask!!

Two things I wanna know! (feel free to ignore obviously ^^ )

What are your top 5 favorite characters and why are they your favorite? Could be current favorites, favorites over the years that you still like, favorites in general, etc. Also any media

And/or gimme 1-5 of your ocs - whether they're your favorite, most recent, the one you've been having fun with recently, etc. Tell me some fun facts about them, and why you picked them!

Hope you're having a great day/night - and remember to stay hydrated!

TOP 5 CHARACTERS (AT THE MOMENT, IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER)

Elizabeth

My pookie! She got done so dirty by Nakaba, I could write a dissertation about how she deserves a better character arc than she was given and exactly how to do it. My version of her is so OOC that when I watch the series, it feels weird for her to be so different from how I think of her.

Nezuko

Okay, maybe I'm a sucker for poorly written female characters that deserve a better story. I wrote a fic where she learns sign and actually has complicated feelings about her brother, the Hashira and Urokodaki, which I wish the series would have explored more outside of 'oh it's fine/I forgot'.

Sukuna

I AM NOT HORNY ABOUT HIM. I AM A BIG FAT DYKE. I do think he's a well written villain in the sense that he's likeable enough not to be annoying, but not so likeable that he stops being an antagonist. It's hard to put your main villain and hero in the same body, but I think Gege does it wonderfully.

Meliodas

This list would be incomplete without him. Like Elizabeth, I have such a different conception of him in my brain than exists in canon, when I watch the series it feels like a different character completely. His concept is so good and juicy, he just happened to be written by a man.

Cast of Neon Genesis Evangelion

They gave us so much. My first mecha anime and my first psychological/existential/philosophical anime all in one! I can't think of a badly written character in this entire show, but it definitely exists on a different scope to me. It's just so far beyond what a lot of other shows want to say/have the writing to say. That said I do think Cyberpunk Edgerunner was a great show to follow it with, matched the futuristic vibes, complex characters and philosophical message well.

TOP 5 OCs (IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER)

Hikari (NNT)

I think she is my oldest OC out of this entire list at 5 years old this spring. I've seriously put her through so much for the plot, and at this point I think she and her entire universe have safely exited hyperfixation and entered special interest territory. Her ass is going nowhere soon, and even if I spend time with other OCs, it always comes back to her. I have her entire life developed from birth to at least ~50, and trust me, it's not all pretty. Some of it is! But not all of it.

Tristan (NNT)

He's only younger than Hikari by about two weeks, so almost 5 years for him. Not the same as 4KOTA Tristan, I heard that the canon melizabeth kid was named Tristan and went 'oh, sounds good I'll take it' before 4KOTA even came out. The two could not be more different. I almost put him and Hikari in the same entry, they come as a unit like that, but he deserves his own paragraph. He has also gone through more than any normal person would have put him through, but I am no normal bitch. I need a shirt that says 'I put blond men in situations'.

Natsuri Fujikawa (Demon Slayer)

She's much younger than the twins at about 1.5, but I'm still loving her storyline and plot development. She's in the Demon Slayer universe, and is only 10 when she goes through the Horrors, which might be a mary-sue type deal but I really don't care. It brings me joy. Does it say something about me that forced cannibalism, kidnapping and psychological torture sparks joy? Maybe. I haven't written any of her stuff down yet, I should probably do that.

Misoka (HXH)

Older than Natsuri but younger than the twins, let's call it about two years. Her story is a little looser, but goes through more ups and downs than straight misery punctuated by moments of brightness. She's fun for when I need a little more variety in the delusions, but is still versatile enough for me to put her in Situations and have it feel normal. I probably owe her an apology for making her try to kill her adoptive family.

Claudia and One (OG)

The original strangers -> friends -> lovers. I wrote a hundred pages of angst and whump about you before it was flagged by my middle school and I got called into the counselor's office because of it. Shoutout to the social worker who told me it was good writing and that I should keep working on it, I just had to move it off of my school account. You were a real one.

[lenteur]

i'm glad you're doing good today, i hope it stays that way for the remainder of the weekend 💓 thank you, that means a lot, it's my first time doing this kind of secret santa, i've done a lot in rl but will do my best to create a gift you will enjoy! 🥰

i also read that you have a few things you don't want to be included in your gift which is perfectly understandable, none of these will be included in your gift 💚

i do also call him hao, i just think it's such a cute name 💘 and i know your favourite dynamic is the china line. i adore the friendship between hao & jun, their friendship is so precious and whenever they're together, it puts a big smile on my face 💓 jun is one of my biases & hao is a bias wrecker. basically anyone who's not a bias, is a bias wrecker 🥰

ah so you're a baby carat 🥺 welcome to the chaotic fandom 💕 i've been a carat for six years. very nice was the first song i heard and it had me HOOKED 😍 although, it's only within the last 6 months that they appeared in my ult bias list </3

YES I KNOW WHICH LIVE YOU MEAN ❤ aw my heart, he really is so precious <3 i know a lot of people say that we don't know the idols but i feel like hao is one of the most genuine idols, he is so passionate about his dancing / singing, he just seems like he'd be that friend that you could go to at any time 🥰 i love that video, he's one of my favourite dancers, it's beautiful <3

my favourites are seungkwan & jeonghan, jeonghan was my very first bias but seungkwan is the ult bias (well i'd say they both are but seungkwan more so). seungkwan is very sassy, the friendship between him and hoshi is hilarious </3 seungkwan is one of my favourite people. if i'm ever having a bad day at work, i like to watch compilations of him because no matter how stressed work makes me, seungkwan makes the day a little easier for me and he's so very pretty 🤍 my poor heart cannot function..........

have you watched any of their going seventeen episodes yet? 🌸 if not, i would love to recommend a few of my favourites 💚

yes, this was mentioned to me <3 that's absolutely okay <3 i have this noted in my drafts 💝

first of all anon, you have now reached ✨ bestie ✨ level because you're so sweet and you're giving me bestie vibes. i'm sure we'd be great friends if we met irl. talking about rl, it's so cute that you've done a 'secret santa' event irl. i'm sure your gift recepient loved it 💕 it's not a thing where i live but i'd like to take part in one of these one day (if i get the chance to). oh and don't worry, i'm sure i'll enjoy your gift. because it's coming from you 🫶 (i'm making a heart with both hands in case you can't see the emoji)

(the rest is under the cut)

oh yes! the china line friendship is so sweet and i like how they interact with each other. at first, i wouldn't have guessed they'd be that close (their personalities are quite different) but they're besties and i now understand it. honestly, they bicker a lot but they compliment each other a lot so yeah, that's a great friendship right there 🤣 likewise, i say hao is my bias but the rest of svt are my bias wreckers. they're one of the only groups where it's difficult to choose a bias yk? 💔

thank you for welcoming me into the carat family 💗 i've listened to their songs since debut but it's only now that i really got into them. which means i have a lot of content to catch up to 😭😭😭 yes, this song is very nice (at least they were right about the name of the song lol). whenever i'm sad, i listen to it and i'm almost immediately feeling better 💓

you're so right about hao :( he does seem nice and genuine, which is why i was not surprised hearing him say things like what he said in that live.

ah of course! seungkwan is everybody's bias even when they say he's not. i mean whenever he's on tv, my mood lifts up. i'm feeling better and i smile a lot :D also, i really liked seeing his softer/shyer side when he was invited on ahn sohee's yt channel 💘 my heart was kind of broken because he met THE ahn sohee before me but i saw myself a lot in the way he reacted to her. i mean, i would be the same (or even worse) if i saw ahn sohee 💖 btw the way you described him is so sweet. he's so lucky to have a fan like you 💞

i haven't had the time to watch any gose episode yet but i've seen extracts through the mutuals' gifs & funny svt moments compilation videos and i must say i can't wait to watch them because the guys are hilarious 🤣 if you have any episode recs, please list your fave episodes and i'll start by those ^^

Nothing.

She felt nothing.

She was somewhere dark. Quiet. Alone.

Wake up, she told herself. Open your eyes.

She forced her eyelids open, blinking as she adjusted to the bright light streaming into her eyes.

Where was she?

Her eyes focused on the window, the moonlight beaming through onto her face.

She tried to push herself up onto her elbows. Her head swam as she lifted it off the ground.

What the hell happened to me?

She breathed out shakily, and managed to grab onto a bedpost to haul herself to her feet. Brushing off her robes, she looked around the room.

This is Fred’s dorm… Why am I here?

The door clicked open, and she turned around to see a dark figure enter, arms full of what looked like the entire hospital wing’s supply of medicine and healing potions.

The figure locked eyes with her, and promptly dropped everything he was holding to run towards her.

“Oh my god, y/n, how are you standing? Are you okay?”

Y/n frowned as she tried to identify who the person was.

He hesitated. “… Y/n?”

He stepped closer to her, and the moonlight shone upon his face.

“George?” she whispered. “What… what happened to me?”

George opened his mouth to answer, but no words came out. He dropped his eyes to the ground, fidgeting with his hands as he tried to answer her.

Y/n followed his eyes to his hands.

What happened?

Clearing his throat, George lifted his head and glanced nervously at y/n. “You and Fred were- got into an arugment, and…”

He looked down at his hands again, rubbing the one against the other.

“George…” she said slowly.

“Yeah?“

“Why- why is your hand bandaged?”

George looked at her, eyes filled with sadness.

She stared back at him.

“Things got rough.”

She frowned.

”I’m so sorry, y/n. I tried to pull him off you, but he was just- just completely out of his mind.“

The pounding in her head got louder.

Her hand reached up to gingerly graze her cheek.

She pulled it away, George watching her closely.

Blood.

Her eyes flicked up to meet his.

And then, she remembered.

She remembered everything.

-/-/-/-/-

The resounding thwack echoed through the room.

A scream ripped through the silence that followed. A thud as something hit the ground.

Then, nothing.

Nothing at all.

-/-/-/-/-

A tear rolled down her cheek. She winced as it made contact with the wound on her face.

And then she lost control.

Gasping, sobbing, her legs gave way as she collasped to the floor, shaking uncontrollably.

George rushed forward and fell to his knees, and pulled y/n into his arms.

“Oh- oh George…” she cried.

“Shhh, it’s okay.” George soothed her, stroking her hair softly.

She cried even more. He was being so kind to her, so gentle, and yet she couldn’t help but feel as though he was betraying her too. Leaving her alone. Leaving their friends, their lives, their home.

It stung her more than the blood trickling from the open wound on her face.

It gathered in her heart, squeezing it, till she felt she could no longer feel anything but pain.

Y/n inhaled sharply, causing George to pull away slightly in shock.

“What’s wrong, did I hurt you?” he asked, concerned.

Y/n shook her head, covering her face with her hands as the tears ran down her face.

“George, ho-w could he do t-his to me?” she said between sobs.

George had no answer, but his eyes said it all.

“Just, try to breathe, okay?” he said quietly, rubbing her back.

Y/n nodded, breathing out shakily.

He leaned back to grab a bottle of healing potion, cleaning materials, bandages, and a tub of his and Fred’s own bruise paste concoction.

He turned to y/n, and tilted his head down to meet her eyes.

“Y/n,” he asked softly. “Can I touch your face, please?”

She looked up at him, nodding. He gave her a small smile, and took the cork out the healing potion, lifting in to y/n’s lips.

“Drink.” He said.

She obliged. The potion burned the back of her throat as she swallowed, but she choked it down.

He then turned his attention to the wound on her face. Grabbing a cleanser and a cloth, he tilted her head and applied cleanser to the cloth.

“This is for the blood, okay? It’s going to sting, but it’ll be over soon.”

“Okay.” She whispered.

George lifted the cloth to her face, and started to wipe away the blood. Tears trickled down her face as he did so, the pain being slightly unbearable.

Once he had finished cleaning the wound, he began to open the tub of bruise paste. When he saw y/n flinch at the sight, he closed it and put it back.

“It’s fine, we don’t have to use it.” He said kindly.

She nodded, wiping away her tears and looking up at him.

“Thank you.”

He patted her soothingly on the shoulder, eyes full of concern as he glanced at her cheek.

“It’s the least I can do.”
