✿ Episode Six ✿ : This is youth.

It’s finally Stray Kids blog content time!

I think many STAY’s have come across this by now and a lot of people have been posting about it so, I’m not the first but I’m gonna waffle about it.

Their concert that took place two days ago in Seoul, Chris was talking about their song Social Path and the line “Gave up my youth for my future”. I’ve put the clip below but the translation (as provided by spearhyunnie) is:

Chris: We did give up our youth...

Changbin: Hyung-nim, this is youth. Don’t think of it as giving up your youth. You’re just living in a dream that can’t be bought.

(You can view the tweet directly, all credit of the video and translation goes to spearhyunnie for this one).

The reason I’m waffling talking about this is because what Changbin said is more true than he realises, or maybe he does realise. He was able to say what Chris really needs to hear and what STAY hope he knows. He can continue to live out his youth, it's not too late.

They’re all only in their twenties with Chris being the oldest; turning 26 in October. Not only do they have so much more time in their lives left to live but also, their time as “adults” hasn’t been that long either. If you’re considered an adult as 18, Chris is only an 8 year old adult from that perspective and Jeongin is only a 5 year old adult. They’re still in the prime of their youth.

I do think it’s important to consider the impact that working from such a young age, especially for Chris, would've had. They didn't live a traditional youth, in many means of the term, but they still have time to curate those experiences.

Considering the fact that most people don’t know what they want to do with their life until much later on, and some people never fully figure it out, I think Skz have done well to get to where they are today and still be having fun with it. They’ve achieved so much already that they have every right to connect more fully with their youth. To many people, they are living the dream - to have achieved so much at such a young age.

They sacrificed years of their life to get where they are but they are still young with the ability to live out their youth for a long time. For example, elderly people who travel a lot or engage in more “youthful” activities are considered to be “full of youth”. It’s not something that you can easily lose but rather something that you find throughout life.

Youth isn’t an age, it’s a type of experience. Youth is living to your fullest, being full of wonder and hope and excitement. Skz are still full of that and they will continue to be; but so should we.

I do think it can be a privilege to be full of youth. When you have a lot of responsibilities and stress, it’s not easy to have and in that sense, it’s easy to see how Chris gave up the youth of his teens to create his future with Skz. However, I think that people should try to retain their youth when possible because “This is youth.” Living and experiencing new things, getting excited and being full of hope for the future; that is youth, and it’s a very important thing to have.

……can we have…….. biva headcanons?

Of course you can my darling <3

Biva/Vibarb Headcanons ~

❤️💛❤️💛❤️💛❤️💛❤️💛❤️💛❤️💛❤️

Chaos duo, Viva would want to do something extremely stupid and Barb would hype her up so much (And vice versa)

Barb has the tough-guy vibe but as soon as Viva gets flirty with she is putty in her hands. Viva well and truly knows this, she loves to tease her and watch her get annoyed (They both know she's not really annoyed)

Barb has a few commitment issues, she struggles to see why someone would just like her after only meeting her mere seconds ago, Viva is always there for Barb, even if she doesn't realise it.

Their first kiss is totally that one "first kiss meme" (I'll find the image somewhere) Barb is the one who hasn't kissed anyone ever and Viva is totally the one expecting a kiss with tongue.

Barb loves taking Viva to concerts, they dance the whole night together and then sleep at whoever's place is closest, which is usually Barb's.

Viva loves to braid Barb's hair and Barb taught herself how to braid so she could do Viva's hair. It took her a while and she nearly ripped her hair out in the process but it was worth it for her girlfriend.

Barb is way more lovey-dovey than she seems to be, she's actually the sweetest girlfriend. She'll buy Viva her favourite flowers all the time and will play her favourite songs on her guitar, even if they're trashy pop songs. She does it because she loves to see Viva smile.

Viva's smile can brighten Barb's whole day and it reminds her that she has people who actually love her, with no conditions attached

Likewise, Viva absolutely adores seeing Barb's smile, especially if she's the one causing her smile.

They share a wardrobe, or more accurately Barb shares her wardrobe. Viva is always stealing something, whether it be a jacket or a band shirt.

Barb wears one of Viva's old Brozone shirts to sleep and Viva wears one of Barb's Gang of Youths band shirts.
