#yuri han imagines

[downins]

˚ ༘ ೀ⋆｡˚you, again (han yuri)˚ ༘ ೀ⋆｡˚

a/n: more yuri!! because i love her and i love gia kim so much (im gay)

warning(s): reader smokes, basic clubbing stuff, creepy men (ew), swearing, mentions of consuming alcohol

summary: after breaking up with yuri, you've been staying single since you've felt that relationships were too complicated and you're only going to end up breaking your own heart. ever since then, you've been minding your own business, even when you're clubbing, you're mostly there to have a drink or just act as a wingman for your friends.

"you ready for tonight?" it was 11:41 pm on a friday night, your phone buzzes for the second time, urging you to unlock it and check your messages. "yeah, i'll be out in a sec, i just need to grab my keys then we'll be good to go" you responded after fixing your hair and going over your outfit the last time. you walked out of your room and collected your car keys on your table. after looking your door, you went down and saw your friends Q and kitty waving at you with a huge grin on their faces. "somebody's not going home tonight" Q joked as he lightly nudged you on your shoulder causing you to scoff, "you're just saying that so i'd help you talk to some guy tonight". all three of you laughed while walking towards your car. "noo but you really do look nice!!" kitty exclaimed and you thanked both of them

at the club (sugar bar, itaewon)

you could feel the vibration of the bass through the floor from the speakers causing you to raise your voice as you try and tell kitty and Q that you're going to be sitting at the bar and just having a drink there. they both nodded and urged you to be safe, you left rather quickly after noticing that the space was getting even more crowded as time passed. you ordered a mimosa and sat on the empty stool without having any idea who was beside you, it was geon, he's your classmate but you never liked him because he was mostly an asshole to your friends, mostly yuri. "you look good" he said as he swirled his drink. "thanks, i'm still not interested" your tone was neutral. "oh come on, can't you believe in second chances?" he sighed after taking another sip. "the shit you said about yuri led me to decide that i don't" you argued back. "why're you still defending her? aren't the two of you broken up?" you could feel the frustration in you building up. "nope, we're still together and frankly, i have no idea why you're hitting on my girlfriend" you heard a familiar voice come up from behind you, it was none other than, yuri.

she wrapped her arm around your shoulder and gave you a kiss on the cheek causing it to heat up, "sorry for being late baby i couldn't find a good outfit." you turned to look at her, she was giving you a signal to play along with the act. "yeah no that's fine" you let out a little laugh. "by the way you're in my seat, i think it's best if you were to leave now" she shooed him away and made him leave with ease. "thanks for that, i was going to leave but i figured it'd make me look pathetic if i just left" you thanked her as you gestured to the empty seat after geon left. "don't worry about it, i'm just glad you didn't punch him" you laughed at her statement and tried to sneak a peek at her since you weren't able to earlier. "you look really beautiful, and you're also wearing that signature perfume of yours" the smell gave you nostalgia of when you were together, maybe some parts of you did miss her but you were set on staying single to avoid any complications. a smile flickered across her face as she adjusted herself in her seat, "thanks, oh sorry i left a stain on your cheek", she wiped it off and fixed your hair by tucking it back your ear. "so, it's you again" you stated as you ordered another drink. "i guess so, is that bad?" you shook your head and responded with a simple no. "have you found somebody new?" you scoffed, "i'm just tired of trying to salvage relationships, plus it's a distraction and i need to maintain excellent grades so i could keep my scholarship" she nodded in agreement.

"what about you?" something inside of you hoped that she'd say no but you were also going to support her fully if she were seeing someone new. "same as you, i just keep seeing you in everybody that i meet" her words made you turn your head towards her quickly. "what do you mean by that?" you felt your heart beating slightly faster, "it's just that how we were, i can't find that in other people except you", her confession made you speechless. you're confused as to why she hasn't moved on since she was the one who brought up the idea of parting ways. "i know it's stupid to say this especially because i'm the one who suggested we break up" she rested her head on her arm. you placed on hand on her shoulder and tried to comfort her. "it's not, you did what you had to do, i'm completely fine with that" you lied, obviously you weren't fine with it. "hey it's feeling kind of stuffy in here, i'm going outside to take a breather, wanna join?" you stood up and offered your hand to her. "you're gonna smoke, aren't you?" she cracked a joke and took your hand

outside the club

you leaned against a rail and so did yuri, she was admiring the night view and you were too. without hesitation, you pulled a pack out of your back pocket and took a cigarette then placed it between your lips, taking a small drag after lighting it up. "same old habit?" she scooched closer to you. "not that you have ever minded, you even smoked with me a couple times", she slapped your arm jokingly, "no shut up" she tried to defend herself. both of you laughed together and you could feel some tension between you two. "i've missed this" she muttered under her breath. "what'd you say?" you hummed. "you missed me?" you moved closer to her while she was covering her face with both hands, trying to deny everything. "oh come on say it" you cornered her. she grabbed your collar gently and closed the gap between the two of you, at this point your lips were inches away from each other. "you smell like cigarettes" her voice was really soft, it sounded like she was whispering. "you've never complained" you smirked a little. without noticing, you were already kissing her, she had her arms wrapped around your neck with yours around her waist. you pulled away a little, "what is this now?" you asked with a smile on your face. "me winning you back?" she responded while running her hands through your hair. you giggled and connected your lips together once again, "i love you, yuri"

02. The note under your desk | Minho (xo kitty)

”it all started with a note under her desk.”

Play: —<| beside you - keshi |>—

(Credits to owner for the gif.)

Thanks for reading &lt;3 @myahwritesss @sparkysparking101 @suzzie63 @upsidedownjill @lovely-hao @lupinette @seoli-16 @rory-cakes @sir-simp @rubes26 @chaerins-world @sadiebrookeholt @sincerely-aaronette @instabull @itsnotino

——— MASTERLIST | 02. Kind Regards, N | NEXT ———

Minho bunches up the note in his hand and pounds it into the wall. The paper bounces easily and falls, crumpled, onto the floor, which does nothing to ease the kind of anger bubbling up through his chest.

What nerve, he thinks as his eyes see all red, who the fuck thinks they can mess with him and get away with it?

He’d almost laughed as he read the words once. Again, and again. Until the reality had kicked him in the balls and he came to the conclusion that whoever this person is, they’re messing with him.

Dear Minho,

First off, that’s such a patronizing way to ask for help. Not even a please? Who the hell do you think you are? What you need help with are your manners, bro. Oh and I’m not Kimberley and I will definitely not pass on your message. Maybe you can try asking again — nicely, and then maybe I’ll consider telling her about you.

Also, Kimberley doesn’t sit at this desk. Maybe you should’ve known that first before even making a move. Kind regards,

N <3

A stranger.

A stranger had read his note. And this stranger might know exactly who Minho is. Great.

Now his entire reputation is at stake because of this stupid idiot who thinks it’s fun to pass on messages like love letters.

A knock sounds on his door and before he can ask, Q’s head pops in, “hey dude. You got a minute?”

“That depends,” Minho sighs and leans back into his plush bean bag, “I’m currently in the middle of a crisis.”

“What happened?” Q frowns, closing the door behind him before settling down on the carpet opposite.

Minho opens his mouth. Closes it. Regards Q with narrowed eyes. Then, a scowl forms onto his face.

Q blinks, “what? What did I do?”

“If I tell you, you cannot tell anyone.”

“Uh—sure, okay.”

“Swear it on your mother’s head.”

“Wha—Minho, come on. Just tell me—“

“Swear it.”

“Okay okay fine,” Q rolls his eyes, “I swear on my mother’s head. Now tell me.”

Minho recaps everything from the moment he’s dropped the note underneath the said desk to the episode that occurred just a few minutes prior.

Q cannot help himself but laugh, covering his mouth in an attempt to calm himself down as the other boy’s face twists into a ferocious glare that would’ve sent anyone running home, “oh my god,” Q says, trying to hide his chuckle, “this—you—oh my god, this person’s hilarious!”

“It’s not funny!” Minho rages, hands going up to grapple through his locks, “what am I supposed to do now?!”

“Well, assuming that it’s a girl from the handwriting,” Q shoots him a pointed look as he settles more comfortably against the couch, “I’d say you should write back.”

“And say what? That it was a mistake?” Minho rolls his eyes.

“No, but if she’s sitting in the front row, maybe she has all the resources you need. Ever thought of that?”

At that, Minho straightens and looks at his best friend as if a lightbulb has struck, “you think she’s smart?”

“I believe so. Why else would she be in the front row?” Q shrugs.

“Q,” Minho’s eyes fly up to his as a smile breaks across his face, “I think you’re a genius.”

“I know,” Q grins, “thank me later.”

———

Nina is half asleep when her fingers curl over the note under her desk.

It hadn’t been her intention to find it, but somehow it seems as though fate enjoys playing tricks on her. Huddling behind her stack of books and quickly ripping it open under her desk, Nina quickly places the paper over her copybook, slouching over her desk as though in deep thought when in truth she’s reading over the words with barely concealed amusement.

Dear N,

Well well well, nice to meet you. I guess I should apologize for my “patronizing” behaviour, as you said, but maybe you should just tone it down a little. Juuuust a little. Violence was never the answer, honey.

Anyway, since you’re the one who received my beautifully crafted handwritten letter, maybe you’d like to help me out with my horrible grades.

Pretty please? I’m asking nicely this time ;)

Yours sincerely,

Minho.

P.S: you know my name but I don’t know yours. Care to share?

Nina shouldn’t answer. She shouldn’t get involved with such a boy who seems to suck at flirting and who’s desperate enough to do it for the grades. Yet, his half-baked attempts only cause an amused smile to slowly crawl up her lips, one that she quickly hides when Professor Chung turns to ask the class a question.

Hiding behind a curtain of hair and leaning over her desk, Nina takes out a fresh piece of paper, and starts to write.

———

Dear Minho,

who even calls anyone “honey” these days? I think you need a real-life update. In any case, why don’t you ask the library for a tutor to help you out? I’m sure they’ll have much better resources than a random stranger from lecture.

Try it out, it might work wonders for you. Who knows, maybe you could use your flirting skills then ;)

Sincerely, N.

P.S: the first letter of my last name is S. That’s all I can give you for now.

———

Dear N.S.

I finally have some initials to call you by. Nice, although, a name would’ve sufficed. I’ve tried the library, horrible staff and the tutors are just there because they want a piece of me. What can I say? I’m a horribly enchanting man who cannot go anywhere in peace. So please, help me?

Kindly,

Minho

———

Dear Minho,

bold of you to assume that they’re enchanted by you.

I don’t know, should I help you? You’re not being very convincing. Then again, what do I know? I’m just some girl whose notes you need in order to get good grades right? Reality check, my man. Maybe you need to realize the world does not revolve around you :)

Kind regards,

N.S.

———

Dear N.S,

I’ll just say it’s still not fair you know my name and I don’t know yours, so I’m holding that against you. You keep insulting me but you also keep answering my notes. Either you’re a masochist and enjoy watching me suffer or you’re just a little bit entertained. I know I am even though I’m still struggling with Psychology.

Kindly, Minho.

———

The water is icy cold.

Minho’s limbs are freezing by the time he’s twenty laps in, the heat slowly spreading from his heart to the rest of his muscles as he keeps moving through the water as easily as a fish in the sea. This is where he feels the most alive, the most content.

Underneath the surface, everything is dulled out. He can only hear himself, the echo of sounds and voices drowned out by the alienated air pulsing through Minho’s ears.

Breaking through the water with a shaky breath, he quickly swims towards the edge and grabs on. On the other side are toddlers with their swimming instructors, voices loud and bouncing off the walls of the indoor-heated pool.

Minho grabs onto his cap, tugs it off his head before shaking out his hair. Part of him feels guilty for not doing more but he can’t find it in himself to continue for today.

“Hey if it isn’t Minho!”

The said man turns to find one of his swim mates, Jung Kiseok, striding towards him with purpose. He lifts a hand in greeting, “hey man.”

“Long time no see!” Kiseok claps him on the back before jumping into the water, the edges sloshing as he does so, “what have you been up to lately? You don’t seem to be around much.”

“Yeah I’ve been trying to save my grades,” Minho grimaces.

Kiseok groans sympathetically, “Oh I know how that feels. You found a tutor yet?”

“I don’t like the library tutors,” Minho sniffs, causing his friend to laugh, “why don’t you enter a study group? Wouldn’t it be easier?”

“Study group? How’d you find those?”

“Just go on the School Portal, man. They’re everywhere, for every subject.”

Minho straightens at that, eyes wide with hope, “how am I only finding this out now?”

“Shit, you really haven’t been studying have you?” Kiseok laughs even harder, “I’ll send you the link to one if you want. I know the TA in charge well.”

“That would be great, thanks.”

it isn’t until that night that Minho opens up the letter found underneath the desk from his Psychology class this morning. He finds that, ironically, he looks forward to having snippets of conversation with that infamous N.S. It somehow makes his day a little better, a little brighter. He wishes he can know what she looks like, at least.

Muscles aching and hair still wet from his shower, the said young man settles onto his couch with a heavy, tired sigh, before finally giving in and opening up the letter.

Dear Minho, okay. You got me. I’m actually really entertained by our conversation so yes, caught me red-handed. I wouldn’t have imagined that you would answer my note after the first time. Question: why did you take Psych if you’re struggling? I’m sure there must be another elective you can take.

Anyway, I’ll play nice and forward you the latest notes. Just give me your email.

Kindly, N.S.

“Yes,” Minho mutters to himself, inwardly punching the air as he quickly scribbles down his response and folds it as small as he can get it to go.

His phone suddenly vibrates. The young man grabs hold, presses down onto the call button, before placing it by his ear. “Minho, how are you?” “Eomma,” he switches to Korean, the language flowing smoothly through his tongue, “I’m good. How are you?”

“You’ve been very quiet lately. How’s your swimming going?”

“it’s alright,” he lounges back onto the couch, “same old.” “I hope you’re not skipping swimming practice.” On the contrary, it’s school he’s skipping out on. Not that she needs to know that.

“No Eomma, everything’s fine okay? You don’t have to worry.”

“and your grades?”

He clenches his teeth, “my grades are fine.”

Another lie. It’s the only thing that will keep his mother’s nose out of his business. They talk for a few more minutes before his mom is called back to work, and Minho cuts off, head resting back against his couch as another exhale escapes his lips. Lying to his mother had never been in his plans, but he finds it’s easier to do that rather than having her on his back about every little single thing. He’s surprised she has even let him be on his own for more than one day, considering that she used to pester and harrass him about being on time and being perfect at everything he did.

It was tiring. And Minho had grown sick of it.

His phone pings once more. Minho looks down to find Kiseok’s message with a link tot the Study group he’d been bragging about earlier.

Maybe that will help him out.

————

“You going to study group later?”

Nina looks up from her book. It had been one of those rare occasions where she could actually rest after this hectic week that had just passed —what with her midterms coming up, her assignments, and having to find a part-time job to finance her living situation.

It’s also a very rare occasion that her roommate actually reaches out to talk to her like she actually exists. It’s so surprising that for a minute, Nina just looks at her in surprise without registering anything she has said.

“What?” Nina asks blankly.

Her roommate — her name is Karen Liu and she’s a cheerleader —cocks her head at her, long hair streaming down her left shoulder, “you okay?” She asks, “you seem a bit out of it lately.”

It’s not the first time that Karen tries engaging with her and for that, Nina feels grateful. But the thing is, Nina feels so…blank in comparison. Karen’s life is filled with colour and pops of bright vibrancy that seems to jump out of the page at you. She’s someone bright, bubbly, funny, everything that anyone’s ever wanted to be. She’s popular amongst the boys and the girls, so can Nina face her without ever feeling like she’s never enough?

So Nina avoids her. Like the plague. And despite Karen’s greatest attempts at reaching out to her, the latter would rather have it that way.

Nina isn’t someone ready to be thrust in the spotlight. She never was.

“Uh yeah,” she stutters out a reply upon realizing that Karen had been waiting all this time, “I’m good, just busy. And yeah—I’m coming to the study group later.”

A smile so bright fills Karen’s face, “great!” She chirps before slinging her tote bag over her shoulder, “I’ll see you then!”

Great. Now Nina has no other choice than to show up now that she’s made a promise she can’t avoid. And it’s ironic really, considering that she’d been planning to have a quiet evening to herself, listening to her favorite music and watching the latest videos about marine life; more specifically about orcas.

The afternoon goes by quicker than she wants it to and before she knows it, she’s walking straight into the library at five on the dot as the sun slowly descends in the horizon and glazes everything in summery gold despite the fact that it’s freezing outside. Winter is coming. Nina can feel it in her bones.

There are already a few people there and she quickly takes a seat next to a guy she hasn’t seen before. Karen sends her a subtle wave from across the table and she waves back shyly, before focusing on gathering her books from her bag.

“Right, thanks for coming everyone,I’ll just do a quick intro for the new faces around here,” the TA in charge stands and leans his palms against the table, making sure to get a glimpse of every face, “my name’s Alex and I’ll be in charge of the Psychology study group. Make sure you come every week because we don’t normally linger too much on each topic. These sessions are here to help you get a better understanding, not to actually revise any material.”

Nina nods along with everyone else, already knowing all this. She clicks and unclicks her pen out of habit.

“Today we’ll be reviewing on the different mental disorders. I’ll be passing out study sheets and key points to take note of for each,” Alex starts handing around some papers as he speaks, “feel free to ask any questions. Before we begin with the questions, have a quick-read though and discuss with the partner on your left.”

Nina turns instinctively towards a young man who seems unfamiliar, a new addition to the study group probably. He’s nicely dressed, with a crisp white polo and a beige cardigan thrown over him, pretty features framed by stylish locks.

“Hi,” his voice is deeper than she’d imagined, “my name’s Minho Song, I’m new to this study group thing and I pretty much hate Psychology. I’m a Sports Science major.”

He reaches a hand out and she shakes it, “hi, I’m—“

Wait.

Minho?

Could it be—

Her Minho? The guy with whom she’d been exchanging messages with all this time?

No way. No. The world can’t be that harsh to punish her like that.

“I’m—uh—“ Nina’s mind blanks out. Shit. She needs a new name, “my name’s Na—Nana.”

His brow dips in a furrow and Nina quickly realizes that he knows her initials, “I mean—yeah Nana Liu! Yeah. That’s my name.” She laughs to hide her nervousness, “nice to meet you.”

He seems amused, at least, “you from here?”

“No I moved here after high school,” good. It doesn’t seem like he’s suspicious in the slightest, “what gave me away?”

“Your accent. You speak English with an accent I can’t place.”

“Ah yes, well—it’s not my mother tongue.”

“What is it then?”

“I speak French, normally.”

“French,” his eyebrows rise up, “interesting. How come you ended up in Korea?”

She shrugs while trying to calm down the wild beating in her heart, “I thought it’d be cool to live here.”

“And how is that turning out for you?”

“Uhm,” quite horrible but she can’t say that, especially not to a native Korean guy whom she just literally met a few minutes ago. Although, if this is the same guy from the notes, then —

But what’s the chance of having two Minho’s in the same course as her and who are majoring in Sports Science?

She tries to probe a bit further, “so…sports science huh?”

Thankfully, Minho provides her an immediate answer to her silent question, “I’m a swimming athlete. Got a scholarship to study here.”

“Ah. That’s cool.”

Shit. So she’s right. Her gut feeling never lies.

“And you?”

“I’m a marine biology major.”

“Guess we have one thing in common then.”

“Oh,” she cocks her head at him, “which is?”

“We both enjoy the sea, or the idea of it, anyway.”

“Okay guys,” Alex is quick to interrupt, “let’s focus on the work that needs to be done and we can get to know each other later, right?”

That shuts her right up, bringing back the reminder that this Minho is the same guy who’s trying to get her notes. Pompous, self-centered and insolent….somehow, this Minho standing before her doesn’t seem to add up to that same guy.

Nina manages to focus on the task at hand, pushing back her own personal feelings in order to get this assignment out of the way. Together, they discuss the ways in which Bulima and Anorexia are different and she really tries not put her focus elsewhere, stuffs it at the back of her mind like a secret she wishes to forget.

It's a long hour of work before Alex finally calls for a discussion. Then, he summarizes the content for the night before he lets them off, "remember," he calls out, "don't study by heart. Study first to understand."

"You done for the night?" Minho asks as they are packing up their bags.

Nina glances at him in surprise, "uh yeah. My classes are over. You?"

"I have this god awful swim practice I gotta get to," he tugs at his bangs in a manner so childlike she can't help but find endearing.

"Somehow, I'm very glad not to be in your place right now."

"That's because you haven't seen me swim."

Nina laughs, "I like the ocean, I'm not a big fan of swimming."

"Why not?"

"Well, nobody ever taught me how." She flushes upom realizing how sad that sounds, "well, it's not like an essential skill--"

"Uh I'm pretty convinced it's essential," he smirks at her.

"You're just biased because you're a literal mer-man."

"Merman?" Minho chortles, "oh god, haven't heard that one before."

it is only then that she realizes they're the only two left in the study room. She looks around, amazed that she had been so caught up in conversation that she'd barely heard any of the other students leave.

Minho seems to think so too as he slings his backpack over his shoulder, "let's get out of here."

"Do you like it?" Nina asks as they exit the library. The wind has picked up its pace, a lot colder as it whips across her face.

Minho shoots her a glance, "like what?"

"Swimming. Do you like it?"

There's a small pause. "I do."

"How...how does it feel? To swim?"

He takes his time to answer, “it feels…peaceful.” He looks at her then, eyes softening, “as if you’re the only one left in the world.”

Nina wonders how that feels like. And how, in context, is it defined as peaceful. Because she’s been alone and she feels like she’s alone despite being surrounded. And yet, peaceful is not the word that comes to mind.

“That sounds nice,” she murmurs absentmindedly, before spotting the gymnasium in the distance, “well, I guess that’s your stop.”

“Yeah,” Minho’s face creases into a soft smile, “I guess I’ll see you next study session. Don’t miss me too much.”

Nina chortles at that, “dream on, merman.”

[orphiclovers]

yk, I was goaded into reading Self-Cest for the Danny Phantom fandom (it was a good read and I stalked the author’s entire dischoreography afterward) but now I’m wondering how that would go for Han Sooyoung and her avatars. Specifically 1863rd Han Sooyoung.

How would they get over the dispute over who the true hsy is? Would they conclude that they’re just two different people because the 1963rd was only possessing the other hsy to write? Would they be able to differentiate? Questions questions questions

The fic was by Dream_Trance if ur curious

'goaded' I like that word. I too have goaded people into reading selfcest content I think.

I'm guessing you read my recent Han Sooyoung meta where I talk about how I think their split happened and then sent this ask. You got me absolutely right in that case, there IS a secret selfcest version of that post I didn't include because of woke (well, actually because I want people to focus on the theory lol and weird selfcest shipping distracts from that).

The thing orv does with the alt universe selves that is sooo interesting to me is all of them, and I do mean all, have these twisted and complicated feeling about their other selves. And that's all canon, all I do is tint those feelings in a slightly more romantic direction. for fun. (despite all appearances I'm secretly a canon purist. no, not really. but imagine if I was)

So, what is Han Sooyoung's whole deal?

From what we see in orv, their whole dynamic is basically.... 1863 is cool smart badass powerful protagonist-like and 3rd is the 'rip-off' constantly trying to catch up to her awesomeness / keep up / 'plagirizing' her. This happens a lot, starting from when Han Sooyoung is 13 years old and accidentally plagirises herself for the 1st time.

1863 writes Ways of Survival? 3rd gets vague dream-memories and writes SSSSS grade infinite regressor.

1863 becomes a constellation named Architect of the False Last Act? guess what 3rd does.

See how the narration always mentions 'btw 1863 did this first' - I'm not making this up. 3rd even plagiarizes 1863's lost memories into existence again !!

So if there is one 'true' Han Sooyoung...it is pretty clear who that would be. But crucially, 1863 does not mind at all being ripped off and isn't bitter about it. (unlike sp, who is very bitter at first.)

When Kim Dokja comes to her like 'someone plagiarized your novel!!1!!1!' han sooyoung says lol idc because she knows its just 'daytime ego'/3rd.

Even during the scenarios, 1863 is constantly helping her out because she sees 3rd as a bit of an idiot who does not know anything (very sp style) so OBVIOUSLY she needs to come along and save her while pretending its a huge hassle and she totally doesn't want to. (very 'this will be the last time i help you' for spyjh).

Like, for example, way before 3rd gets Predictive Plagiarism, 1863 is giving cryptic dream hints to help her, and when that doesn't work just straight up temporarily passing on the skill.

but she's totally doing it for fun and because she likes to throw a wrench in others plans haha and not because she cares or anything. totally.

And ALSO let's just talk about this epilouge moment that drives me crazy. 3rd is doubting herself and crumbling under the pressure so 1863 emerges from their subconscious to help her one last time and says LET ME DO IT. Aargh!!!

selfcest yuri...

So yeah, this is a brief look on how I interpret the 3rd/1863rd relationship (Han Sooyoung version.) I have more thoughts on them during the epilouge specifically and the avatar skill but. different post.

Ayesha Liveblogs XO, Kitty S2

"I never imagined Yuri would call her mom and get me back in. But, now that I have a second chance, I'm not going to mess it up." If you say so, Kitty

"Dad's been feeling a little bit stressed." I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE MORE OF THIS PARENTING DYNAMIC

"Lara Jean convinced me to write a goodbye letter to Yuri." Foreshadowing is a dramatic device in which an important plot point is mentioned early in the story—

"You think I'm annoying." "You are, it's one of your most endearing qualities." I want to give Min Ho a little kees on the forehead

Not Min Ho and Kitty sharing a longing look and immediately running away from each other khgkjhg

Shout-out Min Ho for not caring that Dae tried to beat him up LOL

"And, now we get to live together?" "What? I signed up for a single, there must be a mistake." "It's not a mistake, it's fate." Somebody at the KISS housing department HAS to have a vendetta against Kitty lmao. Exclusively fraught roommate situations:

"I had to get out of my parents' place. Bad vibes there. They're getting divorced." RIP the Han family's messy marriage

Rough to be Stella Cho, the roommate who is not a part of this romantically complex dynamic

The way Min Ho does a heel turn every time Kitty comes up kjgkhgjkgh. You poor, sweet, pathologically honest boy

"And I told him I'm sorry [for threatening him over Kitty] and he keeps saying it's okay, but clearly... He's feeling awkward." Oh Dae, I promise you, it has nothing to do with you

"Perhaps he was the young man she followed to Seoul. The one her parents didn't approve of." Like mother, like daughter. Also, what do you want to bet the young man Eve's parents didn't like is Dr. Covey?

"If I'm going to be part of your scheme, I should know what I'm in for. Plus, I'm nosy." I like Praveena. Also she's giving gay energy. Also also: How does Stella not overhear this?

"And lucky me, it's a chance to reconnect with my favourite son." "Your favourite son is Joon Ho. You wrote a song about him called 'Favourite Son.'" "Artistic license." Min Ho's deranged interactions with and about his celebrity family are one of my favourite things about this show

Eye Contact of Colour, Meet Eye Contact of Wul Luh Wuh (WLW)

"Can you talk to Min Ho? 'Cause he's mad that his dad is here, but I feel like he's also upset because of me. I was an idiot, accusing him of going after you, and I hate thinking I might have ruined your friendship." "I'll talk to him." Dae has such a good heart and such a weird friendship group dynamic

"But when you did think of me that way, you smiled." Oh Kitty, you're in it now

Dae smiling because Min Ho and Kitty are back to their arguing, which is now their version of flirting (and perhaps always was)

"Is it because of me [that you figured out you were bi]? I mean like, did I inspire you?" In a way, Yuri!

Not Halmoni avoiding Kitty's questions by hanging up on her LOL

"I have a feeling you and I are gonna be great friends." [Ominous music plays in the background] Oh, I guess Stella (Esther?) is also a threat. This show can never relax

"'My world got so much bigger because of you, and because of Simon.'" I mean, Simon could just be Alex's birth name, if Eve is talking about Jina's birth experience

Okay Dae, it's weird to serenade someone over the phone but it's NOT weird to do in detention with gum scraper microphone:

"Being a successful manager isn't something you can teach." "Then why is this a class?" I had that question also, Min Ho

"Knowledge is overrated. My strongest opinions are on things I know almost nothing about." Min Ho's dad Mr. Moon would probably make a great politician

"So, there's this great DJ playing tonight at this queer teen club in Itaewon." "Do you want to go?" "Like, with you?" "Yes. Unless you don't date girls." Go Praveena, being bold!

"So Simon wasn't your mum's boyfriend?" "No, he was her cousin." Not to point fingers, but sometimes, sometimes, this wasn't mutually exclusive in bygone eras of Asia broadly

Ghgjkhgkgh Yuri and Kitty are constantly telling each other lies of omission. Kitty lying last year about Alex, then this year about her feelings, and Yuri lying last year about Dae, and now about her mum. I think they really would not a good couple make

"You've been giving me shit for years, and you're gay?" Jin said: I'm gay, I'm homophobic, we exist

PLEASE NOT DAE TRAUMA DUMPING ON THE RANDOM STRAIGHT GIRLS IN THE GAY CLUB

"I never want to get in the way of you being there for a friend, but this is clearly not our night. I'm gonna go. See you around, Kitty Cat." What a short-lived date

"Yuri said she did not want to talk to Jina, and I'm following her lead, and if you were a real friend, you would too." Juliana has so far brought nothing but possessive vibes to the function. Develop another personality trait!

Juliana took that statement as a threat and developed the trait of plagiarizing Kitty's life advice:

"For a man who claims to have his finger on the pulse, you should know that bullying is so over, Mr Moon." This would be a fine statement if I didn't think Stella was trying to harm Min Ho in some way. Run baby, run!

"I bet he thinks you're a real bad ass now. I know I do." Min Ho nooooooo

Kitty running interference for Q so he doesn't miss the track meet. She really is a good friend!!

Perhaps Q should interrogate himself on why he's exclusively drawn to men with no moral compass

"Now I'm stuck watching Yuri and Juliana make out all the time." "Excuse me?" "I said that I'm always watching Yuri and Juliana put on their makeup." The ONE time Professor-turned-Principal Lee using his observation skills and it bites Kitty in the ass

Somehow I missed Madison Miller. I don't know, her Koreaboo vibes are outweighed by her general Chill Girl Boss energy

Props to Juliana for owning up to using Kitty's advice

"You must get your cockiness from your white side." Q, PLEASE

"Do you want to come? I could always use another set of eyes." "And crash your date? No thanks." 1) Yuri's the only one with any sense of romantic boundaries and 2) Yuri admitting she's jealous bc of the time capsule heist date

I like that Dae is upholding what I consider a core tenet of K-and-J-Dramas, which is the Backdoor Boyband Launch

"No! It's giving flamingo." The sincerity with which Eunice delivered this critique takes me out:

"I don't know what you think this is, but I don't want to do it anymore." "I thought this was flirting." "Well, I'm not interested." Jin thinks ruining Q's track-and-field experience is the high school equivalent of pulling on his pigtails

"Praveena just saved our asses. I mean it's only our second date." "Date? She's sweet-talking an old lady while you're in close quarters with the hottest guy at school." He made it in a stupid way, but Min Ho does have a point, Kitty

Min Ho is a good guy for inviting his crush AND the girl she's dating to his ski trip weekend

"What would I do without you?" [Chimes play while Yuri looks at Kitty longingly] Oh, this ski trip is going to be SUCH a mess

In this case, I do actually understand Juliana's position. Ignoring an important event for what's ultimately not time-dependent (a VCR search) would be upsetting

"My hopes, they're up here. Because I like you, a lot." Not as much as you seem to like Yuri or Min Ho, Kitty! I think everyone in this show could benefit from being single for a while

"She's the cute one in the family." "I think there might be more than one." Okay, Dae and Eunice, I'm on board!

"Are you guys fighting or.... another f-word?" "Kitty Song-Covey!" [Mock outrage] "Flirting!" Kitty and Q are my favourite friendship

"I could move in with you and Hana if you take my advice and ask her out. You two would make such a good couple!" Awwww Kitty's matchmaking is hereditary from Eve

"By the time this time capsule is opened, I'll be in my fifties. Wow. I'll be award-winning journalist. Married to someone smart and kind. And we'll have kids. At least one. A girl, I hope." I really feel for Kitty watching this, knowing how it all turns out

"She sounds just like Margot. She looks exactly like Lara Jean. She..." "She was a meddler, like you." Yuri saying it so Kitty doesn't have to <3

BOOOOOOOO. I told you this ski trip was going to be a mess:

"What am I gonna do now? I need to talk to Yuri." "What you do now is get to the cars. And try not to ruin my ski weekend." Props to Min Ho for keeping his feelings on the inside, unlike everyone else

Also I feel like if anything would cure Min Ho of his lingering feelings, it's seeing Kitty be actively involved in cheating

[In Korean] "But I thought you were rich." "No I'm not. I live in the same neighbourhood as you." "Really?" [In English] "You really don't know me at all." [Eunice skips away] With every interaction, I like Eunice more

The way Stella perked up upon finding out Mr. Moon has an office at the ski cabin makes me think that's her agenda. She wants dirt on him somehow

"Intense running also causes intense... runs." Q, Chaos Queen (Self-Titled) and IBS King

"God can't fix everything, Min Ho." "Really. I thought that was his whole deal." Min Ho said: I'm agnostic

Q is NOT an IBS King, he is simply a fool who hides his Poorly-Chosen Hook-Up in His Friend's Ski Cabin

"The way things are going, someone's getting their heart broken this weekend." My money is Juliana, Praveena and Kitty, in that order

"Min Ho, can't you make it any warmer in here?" "Next Seollal, book a flight to Cebu." HAHAH Min Ho and Madison is also a dynamic I enjoy

"Min Ho and Dae hate you, and rightfully so. You bullied them. And if they find out we're still hooking up after your track meet sabotage, they'll never let me live it down." Again Q, please interrogate WHY you are attracted to a guy like this:

LMAO @ Eunice giving Dae a torturous massage in the hot tub

"What are the chances that Min Ho lured us here to join his dad's cult?" Like maybe 30%, Juliana, he mostly hates his dad

"It got to the point where I thought that you would cheat on me with Kitty, and I know that is not fair, and I am so sorry." Unfortunately your instincts were correct, Juliana

"You have my whole heart, and I ruined everything." You really should tell Juliana about kissing Kitty, Yuri, but perhaps it is better to wait until you're not trapped in a cabin with no means to escape

"You could be a spy. Like the CIA should recruit you, stat." [Madison squeals] "Thank you, that's so sweet of you to say!" This is so silly, also I feel like Praveena's parents are def not CIA

"Can't you just go over there and apologize?" "No, they should be over it by now." [Cut to Dae and Min Ho, clearly disgruntled with Jin] Again, date literally anyone else, Q

"'What if the universe made us partners in crime for a reason'?" IS THIS KITTY TO YURI OR MIN HO TO KITTY??

"It's a little soon for love letters. But when we go back to Seoul, would you like to get dinner with me?" Dae is so good at saying how he feels <3

I'd say Kitty's letter being read by her friends is karma for Lara Jean, but this is actually WAY worse bc all of Lara Jean's letters made it to their intended recipients. This one is being used for show-and-tell

"Why did you bring this here?" "I didn't, I swear." I bet Stella did!

As Min Ho prophesized, Kitty did in fact ruin the ski weekend:

I'd say Kitty can explain she wrote that letter a while ago, but I guess it doesn't matter since she kissed Yuri last night

Also running theory on what the hell Stella's problem is, because if it were just about Min Ho, she wouldn't actively be interfering with Kitty's life also (or at least I suspect she has, no one else has a reason to bring the letter along or access to it): I think she's Simon/Seojoon's daughter? So she's resentful about Kitty and Eve, and trying to replace her in a way, by slowly ingratiating herself and driving a wedge between Kitty and her friends? This show does love a secret relative

"I'm gonna leave just as soon as the roads are cleared. But for now, I'm gonna hang in here. Can you go?" Praveena is actually handling this with so much maturity

"Bully me. Then we'll be even." [Min Ho starts removing his jacket] [Dae pulls the jacket back on him] I love them, they're so silly

The way they DID bully him back. I love them x100, absolutely ludicrous behaviour

Min Ho getting into the hot tub fully-clothed. Ohhhhhhhhhhhh

(The parallels with Kitty and Min Ho to Lara Jean and Peter's hot tub scene!! Endgame behaviour)

"I'm a terrible, awful person." "No, you're not." "I've hurt a lot of people." "Don't be so hard on yourself. It's impossible to keep emotions like that hidden." Min Ho said: I'm actually famously pro-Kitty

"What are you doing out here?" "Just talking as friends." Top 10 Things People Who Are Not Just Friends Say

I was right about how the letter got there, in any case!

"You made a move on Kitty on the plane? And you're supposed to be my best friend." "I am your best friend, Dae. Listen to me." [Dae swats Min Ho's hand away] "Shut up. I don't want to talk to you, ever again." Everyone has their breaking point, and I guess this was Dae's

[Kitty guessing Stella's password] "WWJD." Ekghkghkgh why does everyone treat Stella like a Jesus Freak. What did I miss?

[Q sighing] "Everybody likes me." Cursed with charisma, LOL

"But right now, I'm trying to get Juliana back. And hanging out with the girl I cheated with isn't going to help." Yuri's real for that actually

"Wow, look at this. Portland Stalker's back." [Kitty, sarcastically] "Ah, that's really funny!" Min Ho and Kitty's usual back-and-forth is also a comfort

Perhaps it's not in Kitty's best interest to go on a road trip with someone who had feelings for her who's in a relationship now. She doesn't want to double dip in cheating scandals

"I'm really sorry." "You know what? I'm not going to help you feel better about what you did. If I have to live with it, so do you." Good for Juliana!

"Can you do me one more favour?" "If it's not insane." "Keep an eye on Stella while I'm gone tomorrow." "No, sorry, that's insane." Q and Kitty continue to be the realest friendship on this show:

"Is it possible that you could be a little self-involved?" "That is a distinct possibility." I think Yuri could really reap some benefits from listening to her new older brother

"He has to think about a lot of things that you don't. And sometimes, that can lead to you making impulsive decisions." Kitty slowly explaining the concept of privilege to Min Ho LOL. Poor Little Rich Boy: The Sequel

"Are you telling me that they are matchmakers?" "Covey, be cool." THAT'S SO CUTE, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE SONG MATCHMAKER TRADITION:

"[The boba] worked for like half a second, and then my blood lust returned anew." Juliana is also growing on me ahhahaha

"I'm still not buying Kitty's theory that she's some letter-stealing wackadoo." "Why not? I kind of agree with Kitty on that one." "No way." "Look, Stella was conspicuously missing when that letter was circulating. And as her roommate, I gotta say, the girl just... is off. Too smiley, too wide-eyed, it all adds up to sus." Juliana 🤝Kitty: Knowing Stella has a haunting aura

Great Aunt coming in hot with her hateful vibes. I guess you could've sent her a letter or something instead of just showing up at her house under false pretenses

"I always thought I was like her in the best ways. What if I'm like her in the worst ways?" Oh, Kitty

"Oh, I know quite a bit about Kitty Song Covey. She's relentless and determined. She helped her sister find love, in her own chaotic way, then travelled around the world so she could find it for herself. That's how I know she..." [Min Ho brushes Kitty's hair out of her eyes] "Well, that's how I know you won't give up on your family. Whether they want you to or not." MIN HO, YOU ROMANTIC SON OF A BITCH (YOUR DAD)

They are soooooooooooooo entangled, oh my god, look at this:

Q is Hook-Up-Hiding Fool AND an IBS King. He CAN do both <3

"I'm gonna stop chasing you around campus and give you space. I'm gonna really try to figure out why I made the mistakes that made me lose the most important person in the world to me." Yuri telling Juliana she loves her enough to leave her be and to figure her own shit out first. That's growth!

I guess we finally know what Stella was doing at the cabin:

"I need to get to the hospital. My dad got into a car accident." [Kitty and Min Ho both jump back into the car] "Get in, I'll take you." Ohhhhh they're coming back together in times of crisis

"Kitty, I'm so sorry I shut you out while I was trying to get Juliana back. I just really miss our friendship." That's what happens when you get romantically involved with all of your closest friends, Yuri. Kitty would know!

I actually forgot that Peter Kavinsky, love of Lara Jean's life, was supposed to be in this season! Awwww, that's nice

"Wait, so does that mean that there's a chance that you and Yuri—" "No, no chance. And I wouldn't want a chance, given the way that she treated me." Rough, but I guess that settles that. Yuri has some self-reflection to do

"I wanna know why you guys are calling a human being 'the Ohio weirdo'." Peter said: I don't tolerate bullying, Baby Sister (in Law)

"You know, I think he totally likes you still." "Woah, no. Nope." "He's calling you by your last name." "That's not a thing, Peter." "He remembers every single word you've ever said. But he still pretends to be annoyed when you talk too much. Classic." Peter said: My money is on Team Min Ho

Ghghjkghkg Kitty asking Peter to buy her a pretty pen. He truly is her older brother

"Thank you, son. I know the perfect place for it." Maybe this is deranged of me but every time Stella gives people stuff (the lunch bag, the clock) I keep assuming she has it wiretapped

"Joon Ho got a girl pregnant. Some backup dancer." My assumption is: There's a recording device in the clock, and Min Ho will get blamed for this leaking

"And my highest rated of all, Rising Stars with Young Moon." [Stella spits out her water] Is Stella doing all of this because Mr. Moon was harsh with her on a reality show? That's insane

"Is this you trying to buy my forgiveness?" "No. Maybe." [Dae giggles] Hahahaha Dae and Min Ho friendship forever <3

Kitty aggressively karaoke-ing at Stella to show her suspicion is very funny

You know, props to Kitty, she waited until she had evidence and a credible theory to confront Min Ho about Stella's double life. That's also tons of growth

"It was bad enough that you broke my heart. Are you trying to break up my relationship?" Oh, Min Ho

"Kitty, you have this killer instinct. It is literally your superpower. So you gotta stop second-guessing yourself." Peter for Big Brother of the Year

Wow, my assumption that Stella was recording everything was actually spot-on! This show is just outlandish enough for that to be a plausible explanation

"What were you dreaming about?" "Calculus." HAHAHAHAH now Kitty's dreaming of Min Ho romantically, oh how the turn tables!!!!

Awwwww Kitty helping Jin to prompose. She's back on her matchmaking bullshit (complimentary)

"I'm not jealous. I'm not jealous. I'm not jealous." The romantic zoom-ins on Min Ho are getting longer and blurrier. Kitty, you are in The Romance Zone, on Jealousy Avenue

It's a bit much to ask Dae to pretend to be single, he's paid his dues in faking his relationship status

"Until you can admit you're wrong about Stella, we have nothing to talk about." Min Ho, you're about to learn a very painful lesson

"You know I like Eunice, right? But you have to win this for your dad. So don't forget that your girlfriend also your main competition." Dae is always in some kind of financial situation. Poor Little Disadvantaged Scholarship Student is a core facet of his characterization

"But why are you helping her?" "She's lacking a lot, but she has some strengths." [Min Ho thumps Kitty on the back] HAHAHAHA MIN HO SHIT-TALKING KITTY WITH HER GREAT AUNT IN FRONT OF HER

PLEASE HIM COMING IN JUST TO SMOOTH THINGS OUT WITH HALMONI AND LEAVE HE'S LIKE A HANDSOME RELATIONSHIP THERAPIST GHOST

"Back then, I told my mother and father Young Ja was sneaking around with your grandfather. They disowned her. I thought that was right at the time. Because she was supposed to marry a boy my parents had already chosen for her. She was meant to stay in Bukjeon. My sister left because I betrayed her." The way Kitty doesn't understand but she's still listening so attentively 🥺💘

"Maybe we are too different." [Dejectedly] "Cool. Now I don't have to feel bad when I mop the floor with you." RIP Dae and Eunice's short-lived relationship

The way Min Ho and Kitty look at each other makes me insane. They are the King and Queen of Unneccessarily Complicating Their Own Lives

"The semester's almost over. Which means she goes back to Portland. For good this time." What!! I thought we had a whole other season coming up!!!

"I know you love this song. I remember you singing this off-key in the shower once." Min Ho living up to Peter's claim that he remembers everything about Kitty

The way that Min Ho looks at Kitty when she says she misses him. Martha, he's back in the fucking building again

Stella said: If Taylor Swift won't announce her Reputation era, I will

"You used me? To get, what? Revenge on my dad?" "Can you blame me? He's a monster." As opposed to you, Stellesther, who's a fucking paragon of moral turpitude

"Like the evidence I planted on Kitty's laptop to frame her for MoonLeaks." Stella, I know you're new to this whole villainy thing, but I don't know if it'll benefit you to have forewarned them of your plans. Surely she can just delete whatever you put on it

"I have fallen for Min Ho. A little bit. Or, a lot." KITTY SONG COVEY, YOU STOP THAT RIGHT NOW

"I always thought there was a vibe between you two." The way Kitty's ENTIRE family is Team Min Ho, including Cousin Jiwon who she just met

"She didn't even take off her shoes." "And Min Ho passed over his collagen water for one of your synthetic energy drinks." I love Q and Dae's Diagnoses From The Min Ho School Of Cries For Help. They're like, the vibes are off, the vibes are evil

"Seeing all these kids living out their pop star dreams just reminds him he never made it as a rock star, you know?" "So that's why he's been playing a bunch of sad songs on his guitar." PLEASE Alex and Yuri's interactions are so funny

"It's like she has him trapped somehow." "Well, if Min Ho's trapped, we have to help him." Glad that Dae is finally being looped into the Stella Shenanigans

"And if she wants to mess with my friends, I will drop-kick that bitch faster than she can say, 'Have a blessed day.'" "All right, Covey. Calm down." Min Ho said: Mark me down as scared AND h—

You know, to Kitty's credit, by this point, she has chosen a way to say Min Ho's name this season. Against her credit, it is different than how everyone else says it

"I told you, I love her. I want to marry her." "No, hold on." "Wait, you love this girl?" Kitty is just fully in the middle of this Moon family squabble, as she loves to be, as a Professional Meddler:

"Your skin is everything." "I know." PLEASE Joon Ho is just as funny as the rest of his family

"Not being with Eunji? Not being in my kid's life? That would be the real mistake." "I think out of everyone, you would understand. Right, Dad? Or should I say Halaboji? You told me want to do better as dad. So prove it." "You're right. And of course, I'll support you if that's what you want to do." Min Ho being an advocate for his brother!! Also I guess why they dropped the fact that they are all half-siblings is because they didn't want to linger on them all having different accents LOL

Dae elbow-checking Eunice so she can't drink whatever kinda spiked drink Stella is peddling. Chivalry isn't dead!

It isn't just a Backdoor Boyband Launch for Dae. It's also a group number! How fun

"A pre-emptory text demanding your head of school quote, 'haul ass' to meet you? Not appropriate." HAHAHA Principal Lee and Kitty: Frenemies for Life

Principal Lee being the entire back-up band. I love that for him

"I think I might want to give up running for good. Maybe find a whole new passion. But I didn't want to tell you, because...." "Because our entire relationship is based on competition and sport." Q rationalizes being lied to WAY too quickly

This is the cutest thing ever, I love this show so much:

"Eunji, will you marry me?" "Yes." "There goes your blackmail material." Crazy interaction to have, but woooooo! Get got Stella

"I am putting you on the next plane back to Ohio. But I also want you to know, I am sorry I was cruel to you." Good for Mr. Moon!

"I could tell your heart was never fully in it anyways." Bold take from someone who blackmailed him, but you right Stella, Min Ho hasn't stopped having feelings for Kitty this whole time

"Praveena and I got to talking at the dance, and it was... I should've told you. I hope that we can still be friends." Saw that one coming, but still sucks for Yuri

"There will be a class action lawsuit against the Han Group. From now on, we're going to be fine. Don't worry." Yuri is single AND broke. Been there baby, it's rough. Also how can Dae not worry? Yuri is his friend!

"Margot only has a small window before she has to go back to Scotland for her new job—" "Covey, calm down." "Why should I calm down?" "Because, you know someone whose dad owns a private jet." I've been thinking this since Bukjeon, but Min Ho is so Mr. Darcy coded

"For fifty years, I've thought about what I'd say if I saw you again. However, seeing you now, my heart is overwhelmed. I'm deeply sorry." [Crying] "Eonnie, eonnie." I'M CRYING ABOUT IT, THE GRANDMA REUNION GOT ME

"Now that I have all of this, the last thing I want to do is leave." "Maybe you don't have to." Oh????????

Also, I am glad that Margot can make an appearance! In a season about sisters, it's only right that we get a Covey sister cameo

"We've granted your request to renew your heritage scholarship. We'll see you next year, Miss Covey." "Oh my god, thank you! Thank you! Can I give you a hug? No. Not a hugger. A high five?" [Lee shakes Kitty's hand] "I'll take it." Persistently, everyone grows

[SHOUTING AT THE TOP OF MY LUNGS] KISS HIM. THAT'S WHAT THIS SCHOOL IS CALLED, ISN'T IT?

"Wait! Can I join you?" [Min Ho smiles and gestures for her to follow] That's not where I thought this was going! I can't wait for the next season of this. I am eating up this slow-burn romance and overly romantically complex friend group!! Now that I have this show I want as much of it as possible

[neo-zone]

Watching this pained me because it reminded me that we lost more than half of the interesting main cast of season 1 we grow to love. Jae-heon, Yuri, Ji-su, Sang-wook (at some extent), Mr. Han, Su-yeong the big sis. I wished they survive till season 3, but then I remember behind the scene reason and following on webtoon existed (different for each character ofc) and this genre does not guarantee everyone stay alive and get happily ever after ending in the end

Imagine Ji-su trying her best to protect and defend the Green Home survivors inside the stadium after the time skip, to keep Eun-hyeok's promise before they left the apartment

Imagine Sang-wook and Yuri making it out alive out of the apartment and trying their best to survive in season 2 after time skip

Imagine Jae-heon didn't die sacrificing himself at that elevator and him joining the Green Home survivors to go and live in the stadium, trying to keep the moral up alongside that shady priest

I guess it's the thing about liking an imperfect show. You always want to imagine better outcomes or what-ifs that you desired

But despite all its flaws and all the dissatisfactions you had (especially to the fucking PD), I guess I never truly regret watching and liking this show in the end

Jeong Yunho : Fell In Love With A Pirate (Part 6/7)

Pairing : Jeong Yunho (Ateez) and named character (Kim Yumi)

_______________________

Yumi : is this pity?

Yunho looked up at yumi who was now sitting on his bed, yunho kneeling down on the floor as he re-bandaged her wounds. Yumi had done nothing except cry silently as yunho had cleaned her body, him trying to be as careful as possible in order to not hurt her any more.

Yunho : yumi-ya.

Yumi : you told me I was only a debt to you, so then why are you doing all this for me? Let me go, let me leave, yunho.

Yunho : and do what? Where are you going to go, yumi?

Yumi : back to the sea.

Yunho : you cannot do that anymore, your…ship's been destroyed.

Yumi chuckled, looking away as yunho pressed his lips together. He was the one who had signed the order to sink her ship, not knowing it was hers. He hadn't even bothered to ask, thinking his mother would only do what was right.

Yumi : they didn’t even spare my ship.

Yunho : yumi-ya, stay with me.

Yumi looked at yunho as he stood up, sitting on the bed next to her as he said

Yunho : I lied, I still love you.

Yumi : what?

Yunho : I was just…I wanted to know why you'd done that to my village years ago and I thought you'd never give me the real reason for it if I'd…if I'd been true with you.

Yumi : you want to know? Do you still wish to know the real reason, yunho?

Yumi supposed there was no point hiding it now, especially since she now knew that yunho still loved her despite all that. Keeping this a secret from yunho was now useless.

Yunho looked up at yumi as she said

Yumi : because I wanted you to hate me, because I wanted you to marry a proper princess who'd do you and your nation good while I was away. I didn’t want you to waste your love and time on someone like me.

Yunho's guess had been correct after all. Yumi looked away as she said

Yumi : and now that has failed, and I have failed, and everything is ruined.

Yunho : yumi-

Yumi : god, I never should've come back here. I never…I never should've resisted-

Yunho shook his head as he held yumi's cheeks, her teary eyes looking at him as yunho whispered

Yunho : don’t say that. And no, nothing is ruined. I can help you, I can help you if you allow me to, yumi.

Yumi : how?

Yunho : what have you told the maids? What have you told them you are?

Yumi : han…han yuri.

Yunho : then you can say that to everyone else as well, we can lie. And I can fabricate evidences, people would still accept you as their queen even if you aren’t from royal lineage. I'll make sure of that.

Yumi : yunho.

Yunho : we can be together, yumi. Just like we imagined.

He couldn't be serious about this, not after everything she told him. Yumi shook her head, standing up as she said

Yumi : I cannot be queen.

Yunho : but why?

Yumi : because I couldn't even protect my crew, yunho! You think someone like me would be capable of leading an entire nation?

Yunho : yumi, this isn't the same.

Yumi : how is it not the same, hmm? I can still mess up, I can still ruin everything because of how stupid I am-

Yunho : because we're doing this together, yumi!

Yumi paused as yunho stood up walking closer towards her before holding her hands as he said

Yunho : you and I, we're in this together. If you fail, I will win for you. And if I fail, then I trust you to win for me. That is how this is going to work, and it is not the same as you will never be alone through this.

Yumi : yunho, I can't-

Yumi cut herself off as she looked away, tears streaming down her eyes as she whispered

Yumi : I…I'm not good enough. This is…it's all too sudden and I-

Yumi cut herself off as she sobbed, yunho shaking his head as he held her face before whispering

Yunho : shh, we don’t have to go fast, okay? You can take all the time that you need, and until the moment you decide that you are ready to be my queen, you have my protection.

Yumi looked up as yunho connected their foreheads together before whispering

Yunho : I have faith in you, my love. I know you, I know the woman I love and I know for a fact that she would make an amazing queen. And if not a queen, then be my wife. Be with me, that is all that I want from you in this life.

______________________________

2 days later :

Minister : so, kim yumi is dead then?

Yunho nodded, leaning back against his chair as he said

Yunho : yes, she is dead.

Minister : but my lord, the word is that you did not let the execution happen. They said you picked the woman up in your own arms and brought her to your chambers?

Yunho : that was because that lady wasn't kim yumi.

Minister : I beg your pardon?

Yunho : the lady that our soldiers brought in, it was not kim yumi. It was han yuri, the daughter of a noble who had run away from court decades ago. She had lost her way from the countryside and had stumbled upon yumi's ship harbored against the land. Our men took her, thinking she was kim yumi but the day she was to be executed, I visited the ship again. And kim yumi's body laid dead in her room on the ship, she had suicided.

The ministers around looked shocked, and yunho was glad they did. Because that meant they were believing his lies.

Yunho : you see, she had lost her crew a while ago, to some villagers who hanged the crew themselves out of rage. And that had caused yumi too much pain, to the point where she decided death was easier. And now the ship has been drowned, and the sea has taken her away to where she belongs.

Minister : we did not know that, sire.

Yunho : and that is why I called upon a meeting, in order to convey the message. Kim yumi is dead, ministers, and she is certainly not in my chambers. I wouldn’t dare enter a national criminal to my bedroom.

_____________________________

Yumi looked up as she heard a knock on the door, waiting for either yunho or the maids to enter. But instead mingi did, his eyes looking around the room before finally landing on yumi as she stood up with widened eyes. She hadn’t asked yunho to bring mingi to her, afraid that he probably didn’t want to see her ever again. But now he had come, all by himself.

Yumi : mingi?

Mingi smiled softly as he whispered

Mingi : captain.

Yumi let out a shaky breath, running up to mingi before almost crashing into him with a hug. Mingi wrapped his arm around yumi as he said

Mingi : I missed you.

And that itself brought tears to yumi's eyes. She had wronged him, and he still missed her? Yumi buried her head into mingi's shoulder as she whispered

Yumi : did…did yunho tell you?

Mingi : he did, today.

Yumi pressed her lips together as she pulled back, not daring to look at mingi's eyes as she said

Yumi : I know I failed you, mingi. When you left, I promised to protect our friends, I promised to let you be with them after all this and I…I have failed.

Mingi : captain-

Yumi : you need to know that they missed you. Every, single day, all of them missed you, mingi. They wished you were with us, because if you had been there mina…she would've never died. You could've protected them. You wouldn’t have failed them as I did.

Mingi : this isn’t your fault, captain.

Yumi : don’t call me that any longer, I have no right to that title.

Mingi shook his head as he said

Mingi : you have every right, and you have earned it. Okay, fine, maybe you made a mistake. But have you forgotten the countless times you saved all our lives, captain? Have you forgotten how you were the one who had recruited us when we had nothing and gave us so much glory and happiness? The world knows us, may it be for good or bad, and you have still managed to protect us for so many years. Does this one incident take it all away?

Yumi : mingi.

Mingi : you have put your life at risk to save ours, and all mina did was repay that. She has done what any one of us would've done for you, just as you have done for us. This was her duty, just as being captain was yours. I miss the others, I will always miss them, but this life of ours was never to last, captain. And they have done nothing but a great mistake to blame you for mina's death and leave you for it. Their mistakes caused their death, not yours. Never yours.

Yumi looked at mingi as tears glistened on her cheeks, mingi's own teary eyes staring back at her as she asked

Yumi : you really mean that?

Mingi : I know that, captain.

Yumi let out a breath, hugging mingi once again as tears of relief slid down her cheeks. Hearing all that from someone who lived through her life as a captain seemed to make it better for yumi, at least a little bit.

Mingi : we will carry their love with us until we die, captain. For you, mina died. And now for her, you must live. You must be happy, or else her death would've been for nothing.

Yumi : thank you, mingi, for everything.

________________________________

A day later :

Queen : are you going to keep her in there forever, yunho?

Yunho : eomma, please.

Queen : no, you have lied to the entire nation and made them believe all your lies out of the love and respect they have for you, son. You have taken advantage of them and it has worked. But as long as she lives here, it can always backfire. Send her away.

Yunho : do you think I did all this so I could send her away, eomma?

Queen : well you can’t keep her in your chambers when you're both unmarried, yunho! You may be prince but there is still a damned limit. And this is crossing it, what are the people going to think?

Yunho : aren’t princes allowed to have ladies in their rooms anyway?

The queen groaned, looking away as she said

Queen : you are, so stubborn!

Yunho : eomma, what part of I love that lady in there do you not seem to understand?

Queen : and what part of you are a future king do you not understand? Either marry her, or-

The queen cut herself off as the door to yunho's study opened, revealing yumi who seemed to have overheard everything. The queen sighed as yunho stood up, quickly walking towards yumi as he asked

Yunho : what's wrong, are you hurt?

Yumi : no I…I just wanted to see you.

The queen rolled her eyes, walking towards the door where yumi was standing as she said

Queen : I have no words for the both of you, ruin this kingdom once again for all I care.

The queen was about to walk out when yumi said

Yumi : your majesty, I know I have been a nuisance for you.

Yunho : yumi-

The queen cut yunho off with a snort as she turned to face yumi and said

Queen : nuisance? You have been more than just that, miss kim. You have been a threat to our national security for years now-

Yumi : I am no longer that, your majesty. You have sunk my ship, my crew is dead, I have no one and nowhere else to go. I am all but this now.

Queen : and? What about my son, what do you plan to do with him?

Yunho : eomma, please stop.

Queen : no, I want to know. Do you want to be queen now, so you can exploit our land further?

Yumi : even if I do ever become queen it will not be to exploit your lands, it will be so that I can be with your son, as I love him.

The queen stared at yumi as she said

Yumi : I have loved your son since the moment I saw him, your majesty, and I want nothing more than to be with him. And I can understand that my past and who I once was, it could cause you worry but…I would never do anything that would hurt your son, I promise you that.

Queen : and I just trust you like that?

Yumi : no. no, you don’t just trust me like that. I will earn it, maybe not now but within due time, I will work to earn your trust.

The queen seemed satisfied with that answer, at least for now. Yumi's eyes held determination, and love for her son. And queen or not, all mothers wanted their children to be happy. And if kim yumi made her son a happy man, then damn it if she was a pirate.

And so the queen nodded, giving yunho one last look before stepping out of yunho's study and closing the door behind her.

Yunho : I didn't think you'd do that for me.

Yumi turned back to face yunho, a small smile on her face as she said

Yumi : you've done so much for me, how could I not at least try and fight for you? For us?

Yunho : us. I like that term, is it new?

Yumi smiled as yunho wrapped his arms around her waist, yumi resting her hand against yunho's chest as she said

Yumi : I talked to mingi, yesterday.

Yunho : you did?

Yumi : mhmm, he uhm…he told me things that made me think that maybe, maybe I should start moving on. Or at least try to.

Yunho : that's a good thing, yumi.

Yumi nodded, looking up at yunho as she said

Yumi : but I will need time, time to accept my past and my mistakes, and move on. Time to start anew, with you, together.

Yunho smiled, leaning forward and kissing yumi's forehead before whispering

Yunho : you have made the decision, that is all that is important right now. Time, we have all of that in the world.

listen to: burn it, bibi ft. dean

7:30 am

the coffee scent lingered around your shared dorm, you open your door to see juliana and kitty on the counter chatting. well, mostly complaining about school and gossiping about the new girl, stella. they noticed your figure leaning against your doorframe and greeted you. "hey, long night?" kitty's voice was drowned out by yuri's alarm in your room. "hm? no?" you hummed with a puzzled look on your face, "must've been yuri then" both kitty and juliana exchanged a sneaky look. "cmon guys get ready, classes are starting soon" you felt a wave of dread hit you after being reminded of that. "i will, i will" you groaned and walked towards them, picking the coffee up prepared by kitty.

"oh by the way y/n, kitty's having another huge dinner tonight since it's chuseok and this thing sort of became a tradition. you and yuri coming?" juliana asked as she took another sip of her coffee. "and we're also hanging out in eunice and mihee's room for a girls night after, it's gonna be fun" kitty added on. you rested against the counter, "maybe, i'll confirm with yuri. she'll be awake soon, you guys heading off to class?" you asked while taking a bite out of the cookie your friend baked. they nodded, finishing their coffees and packing their bags up. you waved goodbye to them and decided to freshen up so you went back into your room, since your roommates left and it was just you and yuri, you took off your t-shirt. left only in your sports bra and sweatpants.

"letting them see you like that is insane" you heard yuri's voice and the sheets shuffling, meaning she was up. you chuckled at her statement, "they already left, sweetheart", you hover over her, placing a gentle kiss on her forehead to greet her good morning. "i need to admit, you look.. extremely fine like that" her arms snaked up your arm, sending soft squeezes on them. "can we just skip classes for a day? please?" she pleaded with a puppy look on her face. "no, of course not. lee is going to kill us and your mum will stop liking me, we were just making progress" she exhaled sharply, expressing her frustration.

"can't hurt to have a little fun before classes though" her hands travelled to your waist and pulled you back to bed. "hey we can't, we're gonna be late baby" she rolled her eyes at you. "classes start at 10am, we have like 2 hours and a half", she straddled you and started leaving kisses all over your jawline, neck and chest. you hummed and agreed to stay in a little longer, the kisses were growing deeper and more intense. your hands were practically roaming over her body, from her back, to her waist, then thighs. you squeezed on them gently, knowing that this turns her on. you always knew what she liked, as if every touch gets a reaction out of her.

you sit up with both of your hands on her waist and hers around your neck, her fingers all tangled up in your hair, lips still connected. you could feel her hips slightly grinding up your thigh and soft moans escaping from her lips. your grasp on her waist tightened and that caused her to pick up her pace. her alarm rang once again, startling the two of you, earning a gasp from the both your mouths. "we should.. probably get ready", she fixed her pajamas and buried her face in the crook of your neck, all flustered. you both let out a little laugh, still out of breath from making out.

5:45 pm

"so juliana and kitty mentioned about a huge 'friendsgiving' dinner tonight and also spending the night at mihee and eunice's dorm for some girls night stuff" you mentioned as you were walking beside yuri, her arm clinging onto yours. "aw, but i'm pretty tired and being around them can be you know" she sighed slightly before agreeing to attend the dinner but still having second thoughts on the girls night thing. "hey, we can just have dinner together and spend the night alone, just me and you?" you raised your eyebrows and nudged her shoulder jokingly. "wow look who's acting like this now" she teased with a smirk on her face

8:00 pm

"turn around, let me fix it for you" yuri was struggling with the zip on the back of her dress, your hand reached out and pulled it up. "thanks baby, how do i look by the way?" she gave you a full 360 turn so you could have a full look on her outfit, she was wearing a slim black dress with some silver jewellery around her neck and wrists. your breath hitched as you eyed her up and down, she looked absolutely breathtaking in that dress. she walked up to you and tugged on your collar, "don't stare at me like that, we're not going to end up attending the dinner if you do darling." your wandering mind was snapped back into reality after hearing her voice. she cupped your face and leaned in for a kiss, leaving a light red stain on your lips. you were still speechless from seeing how good she looked, for a second you wanted to bail on the dinner but that thought was immediately stopped by yuri calling you, again.

"as much as i enjoy watching you fawn over me, we need to get going, kitty and juliana are already waiting" she sprayed her perfume one last time then grabbing her handbag and leaving a quick peck on your cheeks. "alright fine" you take another look at your outfit in the mirror before taking yuri's hand and leaving the room. "woah you two look so good, actual couple goals" kitty complimented with a huge smile on her face, juliana offered to take a couple pictures of you and yuri. "let's go guys, min ho brought the food and set all the tables, he complained about doing all the work and more yapping"

8:20 pm

"so you guys, tell us how it is to be living with each other? in the same room?" mihee asked with an excited look on her face then taking a bite out of the popcorn chicken on her plate. "what do you mean?" yuri asked with a puzzled look on her face. "oh you both know, stop acting all dumb", eunice said as she and mihee gave each other looks. "we've been saying that all the time guys but they never say anything" juliana complained while throwing both her hands up in the air. "guys, seriously we don't do anything and also keep it down before lee hears you guys and seperates us" you protested

"yuri? any thoughts on this?" Q's question caught her off guard and she was just confused. her response was only a hum, earning an "aw" from everybody. you shifted closer to her, basically whispering in her ear saying, "i know this talk has you thinking about what happened this morning, it's better if we pretend like everything's normal before rumours spread", yuri's body tensed up. "i make y/n sleep on the floor every single night since she hogs the blanket all the time" yuri said bluntly, making everybody laugh

9:58 pm

you and yuri said goodbye to kitty and juliana before going back to your dorm. the walk back was breezy and calming, she had her fingers intertwined with yours and her head on your shoulder. "are you okay?" you used your thumb to rub her hand. "i'm okay, it's just that you've been occupying my mind for the whole night. especially what happened this morning, i know we've had moments like that but the amount of privacy we had was immaculate" her response struck an idea in your head, "you know, it's going to be just us tonight since the others are having a girls night somewhere else" yuri scoffed and looked at you, "why do you think i turned that invitation down?"

10:15 pm

both of you were basically stumbling into your dorm, once the door was locked, yuri dragged you to the room with her hands holding onto your leather jacket. "i assume you've been thinking of this?" you said in between the kisses and she murmed "yeah" as a response. once you entered your room, she practically tore your jacket and button up shirt off. revealing you in your sports bra, once again. "how do you know what to wear just to get me going?" the one thing that she has no idea is how her perfume drives you insane all the time, you'd find every excuse you could so she'd put it on. "dunno" you shrugged and found her zip in the back allowing you to undress her. not to mention, her being in all black riles you up too. "i can say the same for you though"

her tongue ran across your bottom lip, asking for entrance. you didn't even think about putting up a fight, the chokehold she has on you at the moment was inexplainable. she had her hands all up in your hair while on your lap, again. "i think they should have sleepovers in other dorms more often" yuri breathed out along with little moans. you can barely think of a response with her kisses trailing down from your neck to your chest. her fingers wander around your abs then to your waistband, tugging and pulling it.

she was feeling you up, a little too good. you couldn't endure another second of just making out, you asked her to lay down and got on top of her without breaking the kiss. now, you could please her and no one would hear nor complain about it. you started placing kisses all the way from her neck all the way to her waist. her grip on your hair was kept firm while little whimpers escaped her lips.

the only thing stopping you back was her underwear, which was now soaked, all because of you. she wasn't even holding back at this point, her moans and whimpers were getting louder. "all this for me?" you asked while trying to meet her gaze, still kissing around her waist. "just please keep going" you felt her hands pushed your head even further. "have some patience, then maybe i'll consider" your tone was low. you used your thumb to press on her core earning a loud moan from her. "fuck" she hissed.

to get an even bigger reaction out of her, you ran your index finger up her clothed pussy and pressing on her clit again. "this was what you wanted, right?" you pushed her underwear to the side, sliding a finger in without any hesitation. her hips bucked upwards as you increased your speed. you added another finger in resulting in her screaming your name at this point. you pumped your fingers in and out on a steady pace, wanting her to take your time and pleasure her well since you two don't usually get much privacy.

this was you releasing all your pent up frustrations from the makeout sessions and quickies. yuri was fully riding your fingers unconciously, you enjoyed the view of her all helpless and turned on because of you. "i.. fuck baby.. i'm close.." the sounds of your fingers moving in and out of her were getting louder, "i know, i know sweetheart" you kept her pace by holding onto her waist. "please, please. i need to-" you felt her release on your fingers.

you pulled them out and layed beside her. you extended your arm out, letting her rest on it. you gave her a kiss on her forehead and a reassuring smile. "but what about you?" she pouted slightly as she looked at you. "next time then" you let out a little chuckle. "you and i both know that it can't end like this, i won't let that happen"

For anyone wondering what novel made me write 2500 words on my phone: it's called "Twin Crowns" and I think it was briefly popular on tiktok.

The premise is this: there's a rowdy princess, and a neat princess, who are twins, and they have to switch places to overthrow a "not technically christian" regime. Pretty cool idea right? It's sorta like a genderbent princess and the pauper but with less chance for yuri :(

However, everything is so painfully on the nose it really robs the story of any tension, rowdy princess cannot go five seconds without mudwrestling a skunk, neat princess is so sheltered and childish you worry if she ever potty trained, and meanwhile every other character's introductory scene might as well go like:

"Hi there, I'm the knockoff Han-Solo, and love interest for neat princess."

"Hi there, I'm no-nonsense, secret softie soldier, and love interest for rowdy princess"

"Hi there, I'm the jealous ex-boyfriend, my brother is going to be the villain of the sequel."

etc etc.

And like the issue is, i think the book is trying to say something about what it means to be a woman in society, and how its valid to be a rowdy girl, and valid to be a neat girl - but it's having to do so from within the framework of cis-heterosexuality and can't imagine that someone would e.g. be entirely uninterested in performing femininity.

And anyways that's how I managed to write 2500 words over the course of my train ride to Berlin
