boy interrupted (suggestive/not ns/fw!) | bakugou manages to sneak his s/o away for some alone time. however, the universe thinks otherwise thus leading to a series of unfortunate events where he gets interrupted every. damn. time. you take it with a grain of salt, but bakugou is less than pleased

hickies | (Y/N) approaches katsuki with the request for hickies , just fluff

freaking out | bakugou surprises you one day with a text asking you out

second button | katsuki gives you the second button of his uniform on the last day of middle school. whatever could that mean~

little brat | the first time bakugou ever meets your younger sibling.

down in the dumps | katsuki comforting his s/o after they had a simply no good, terrible, fuck ass day.

meeting the parents | katsuki invites you over to meet his parents for the very first time.

unintentional | katsuki is hit square in the face with his crushes shoe while they were training. this sparks a rather odd interaction between them both.

BAKUGOU WITH AN ALMIGHTY, ALL POWERFUL, ALL KNOWING S/O [crack fic/inside joke]

baku promo’ing skz [crack/inside joke w/ a friend again lolol]

get it (ns/fw) | kaminari is tired of hearing his friend get off. so he comes to the conclusion, that bakugou needs to get ‘it’. [baku’s birthday special]

July 27th-August 2nd, 2020 CTP Archive

The archive for the Comic Tea Party’s Farewell Party that occurred from July 27th, 2020 to August 2nd, 2020.

Chat:

Comic Tea Party

Comic Tea Party Farewell Party

With great sadness, but also the desire to end things with a bang, welcome to Comic Tea Party’s Farewell Party! This week we’re going to have a casual hang-out with everyone in the server, ask some general questions about comics, and just try to have a good time that lets us all have one last hurrah before the server closes. So if that sounds good to you, we hope you join us.

Question Set 1 of 5 1. What has been your favorite comic to be featured by Comic Tea Party? (You can check the archives for a full list: https://comicteaparty.com/thursArchives & https://comicteaparty.com/weeklongarchives)? 2. What’s a new comic you found thanks to Comic Tea Party (or an old comic you learned to love again)?

Eightfish (Puppeteer)

1. Mine, obv. Jkjk, my actual favorite comics whose book clubs I paticipated in were Ingress, Phantomarine, and Hovergirls. And man I've found so many good comics through CTP. Phantomarine, Hovergirls. Millennium, Only in Your Dreams, Joe is Dead, Valerie... I am sure I'm forgetting some too

Wait I think I may have actually not participated in the Phantomarine one

boogeymadam

1) phantomarine and devil's tongue!! joined for phantomarine's even 2) court of roses , sunny x rain

Cronaj ~{Whispers of the Past}~

1) My favorite CTP feature hands down is Heart of Keol, but I unfortunately was not here for that. I have been a fan of that comic for many years. I also really enjoyed Only In Your Dreams. 2) I found a lot of fantastic comics here! KEYSPACE: A Winged Tale, Phantomarine (although I had heard of it previously), and SunnyxRain, to name a few. I also have a whole list of comics I still need to read! (Damn you my limited time! *waves fist). Princess Pop, Wayfinders, Puppeteer, Ghost Junk Sickness, Teasday, (probably some more I'm forgetting right now ). It's truly been a pleasure speaking with you all in this server! It's a crazy feeling finding a bunch of allies in this giant overwhelming comic-making world. Thanks to everyone who participated in my bookclub or has given me a word of encouragement or helped me with my work. Seriously, before I joined CTP, I felt like I was wading through an endless, abyssal sea all by myself.

carcarchu

1. My fave comic that was featured in the bookclub was Meet and Greet. I just found it incredibly darling, unique and memorable. The art was so lovely and I just became utterly enamoured by the whimsical atmosphere it produced. 2. i started reading yu + me dream bc it was mentioned in the server a few times and i actually ended up liking it a lot more than i thought i would. the art style obviously dates it but the artistry and writing of the comic really hold up and the artist clearly knew what she was doing. also it made me nostalgic for the early days of webcomics

Krispy §[Ghost Junk Sickness]§

1. I wasn't here for it, but O'Sarilho! I loved going back to read the answers, the comic has a special place in my heart! 2. There's so MANY comics and creators i found here who's works i truly admire. It'd start to be a long as heck list, so im going to be more general about it, but the CTP was definitely a good spot for me to pick up comics and have that chance to interact with creators and find out their process/inspo, and i cherish that so much!

Miranda (Into the Swell)

1. I haven't been in the server that long, but I'd probably say Phantomarine since I was actually here for that book club. 2. Ghost Junk SIckness, Phantomarine, Ingress Adventuring Co, Teasday, Whispers of the PAst, Joe is Dead, Magefront. So so many. And they're all amazing!

Eightfish (Puppeteer)

@carcarchu I think you may have seen me mention yu+me? Gosh, it's good, isn't it?? The art style may be dated in the beginning but the rest of the comic is timeless. The amount of creativity in all the art styles she used, wow. She definetly knew what she was doing. Also, brave to commit to such a plot twist. Never seen a story with this premise before!(edited)

Tuyetnhi (Only In Your Dreams!)

1. Oh boy, there's a lot I think heart of Keol is my main contender, since I was there for the book club.

2. the folks I interacted with here, I ended up reading their comics! sunny x rain, WotP, Valerie, Reading Days, and a lot more! I dunno if I would be able to find more comics without the help of this server but I'm very thankful to be a part of it and getting to know a bulk of you here

Deo101 [Millennium]

1: I think my favorite one featured was Phantomarine ^^ being here for the book club definitely helped that, but it's also just really incredible <3 2: I've definitely found a ton of new comics here... mostly from meeting all the lovely creators, and wanting to see what they're talking about when they're gushing about the comics they love so much!

carcarchu

@Eightfish (Puppeteer) yes good writing is timeless! and i haven't actually gotten to the plot twist yet but i know of it!

Eightfish (Puppeteer)

you haven't gotten to the plot twist yet?!

dude the art becomes so good

carcarchu

im still only on page 213

Eightfish (Puppeteer)

jeez no wonder you think the art style dates it!!

the author was intentionally drawing in a completely different style than her normal one the whole time

https://i.pinimg.com/originals/1e/1d/78/1e1d78ae54fa6be3d1076fbdcdcab84f.jpg https://64.media.tumblr.com/a87431cfb4e704d31c07eba9264ce979/tumblr_mve6g1D9y21qbtxv8o1_500.jpg

this is art she did before yu+me

carcarchu

oooh i totally thought that was her art style later!

Eightfish (Puppeteer)

i can't even imagine what it must've been like for her to keep the twist secret for so long

and all the crazyness she was going to do with her art later

this woman has truly impressive self control

eliushi [Keyspace]

A lot of my favs have been said!! I also really enjoyed Gender Slices (binged it all in two days), Desert Spell and Valerie! I love the diversity of the webcomics featured and how relatable they all are thank you again so much for running the book club!

Eightfish (Puppeteer)

Ohh I forgot about gender slices! Also forgot about sunnyxrain. And I did read whispers of the past and patent the sun , but i found out about both outside of ctp(edited)

did not finish (yet), but I've also read parts of teasday, hookteeth, and ghost junk sickness

OH and super galaxy knights

wow there are so many comics haha

Comic Tea Party

Question Set 2 of 5 1. What is your favorite thing about webcomics in general? 2. How did you get involved with webcomics?

Eightfish (Puppeteer)

Wow I literally do not remember how I got involved with webcomics

boogeymadam

1. Stories that feel more personal and heartfelt because the creator is usually just 1 or 2 people creating it mainly because they love it. Also getting to see protagonsits and stories, and even creators i relate to a lot more than those in more main media. 2. through manga as a young teen, searching up more stories like the ones i was interested in and couldnt get enough of and finding smackjeeves and hiveworks.

Eightfish (Puppeteer)

1. What is your favorite thing about webcomics in general? Creativity!! With the freedom of publishing for free, writers and artists can be so imaginative, unique, and weird! I love reading stuff that the author made with full knowledge it will only ever appeal to a small number of people

but those small number of people will adore it

carcarchu

1. I love the indie charm of webcomics. when i interact with media that passes through more hands before the audience gets to it i sometimes feel that it gets polished to the point where it loses some of its charm. though webcomics might have more flaws than works that go through stringent editing, i feel that the flaws can make it more appealing. there can be problems with the writing or the art but i find with webcomics those problems can often be overcome just by the degree of raw passion and heart on display in those works. 2. same as eight it's been so long that i don't really remember but i have to assume that i somehow ended up on smackjeeves through deviantart? a lot of the artists i liked growing up also drew comics which they either posted on dA or on smackjeeves and through there i discovered more

eliushi [Keyspace]

Totally agree about how individual and different indie webcomics read vs traditional/ mainstream. I love how each webcomic is a reflection of the creator and how many different styles and creative ways one can tell a story! I got into webcomics from reading s bunch of manga and comics back in high school and stumbled upon smackjeeves and Phoenix requiem and that was my gateway into indie works

varethane

I got involved with webcomics because some friends of my friends in high school were making one, and I thought it seemed like super cool fun and wanted to do one too. Once i started reading more webcomics, it became hard to stop; the passion and earnestness is unmatched, and the stories people can tell when not held to the guidelines of what's considered 'marketable' by some executive somewhere are so unique and engaging

LadyLazuli (Phantomarine)

1) My favorite thing about webcomics is their diversity. I know not every webcomic is a creator's magnum opus, or the work by which they define themselves wholeheartedly, but you see so SO much variety. No two styles are exactly the same (unless someone's trying to incite drama, I guess ) and with that fact alone, every webcomic is so, so different. 2) I got involved with making webcomics purely out of boredom at work I just wanted a project that I could call my own, so I started drawing. But I read a few back in the day, mostly by coming across them on deviantART. Most weren't super polished, but there were a few that really stood out. It was nice to see the beginnings of what would eventually explode.

Miranda (Into the Swell)

1. The variety. There’s something for everyone and there’s different styles and its fantastic. And the people that are behind them. All the creators I’ve encountered have been super chill and kind and just inspiring. 2. I’m not sure? I think I just started reading on webtoons and it was a downhill (uphill? Cuz it’s good?) spiral from there

Cronaj ~{Whispers of the Past}~

1. My favorite aspect of webcomics is that the genres and art styles are so diverse. And even beyond that, the types of characters represented are so unique! And this kind of bleeds into why I got into webcomics to begin with. I was so bored of superhero comics about white men fighting supernatural entities. Those stories have their place, and I also enjoy them on occasion, but after seeing them a million times, the content gets old. I love exploring webcomics by underrepresented people. POC, LGBT+ people, women, and genres that aren't typically shown in mainstream print comics. And that's what I love so much about webcomics: the diversity, the variety, the opportunity for people to tell their stories. 2. In regards to how I started reading webcomics, I originally read a lot of manga online that didn't have official English translations at the time, and then I found out about Korean webtoons, which sparked my interest in web-based content in general. I also found a few comics because of deviantART. Mostly because I followed a lot of skilled artists, and they would post about their webcomics. I found one of my favorite comics that way, Memorabilia, and I actually remember reading Where Tangents Meet before it got picked up as a Webtoon Original, and before the artist created Siren's Lament. I started drawing webcomics in 2014 because, for the first time since I had started writing, I couldn't imagine my story through solely words. I knew I needed to tell a visual story, and now I had an outlet: webcomics.

Comic Tea Party

Question Set 3 of 5 1. Why do you think more people should read webcomics? 2. What do you like the most about the webcomic community?

eliushi [Keyspace]

I think more people should read webcomics to see how different stories can be told and the different perspectives they share outside of mainstream media. There is also the privilege to be able to interact with the creators directly and be a part of the creative/ supportive process. I love how supportive everyone is! It’s amazing to see creators create fan art/fiction for one another, commiserate the difficulties in making things from our busy lives and celebrating every step of success. I also love the readers whose comments brighten my day and whose engagement motivates me to make the story inside my head Real.

Comic Tea Party

Question Set 4 of 5 1. How do you think webcomics will have changed 10 years from now? What about 20? 2. In the long-term, how will have webcomics changed the world?

RebelVampire

Set 1 1) As the host of CTP, I think I am obligated to say they were all my favorite. So I'm just gonna go with that. 2) As for new comics, honestly, most of them. Not to say many of them I hadn't heard of before, but hearing about them and finding time to read them are two different things. CTP really allowed me to make that time. Set 2 1) My favorite thing about webcomics is mostly just that anybody can do them. You don't need to have fantastic web skills. Don't need to hunt down a publisher and get rejected 1000 times. You just sit down, do it, and post it. Not to say the doing it part is easy, but there aren't the other sorts of barriers that wouldve stopped people when I was a kid. And I think this is great because it lets more and more ppl express their creativity and have avenues to potentially get their work seen. 2) Basically 90% of my life has been composed of knowing artists and having artists as friends. And most artists I know have had interest in webcomics at one point or another (even if they never pursued it or moved on from webcomics). So for me it was just a thing that was always there based on my particular social circles.

RebelVampire

Set 3 1) I think more people should read webcomics because of two reasons. One, the more people read indie stuff, the more it helps indie artists achieve whatever it is they're trying to achieve. With the internet, I think we need to move past the days of yore where artists were basically unknown until they were dead. Cause that's sad. So reading webcomics is a way to fight that and respect the inherent humanity, effort, and work that goes into creativity. Two, there's just more availability of stories. Whether you want to read some mainstream isekai like story or just want some super niche thing that is 100% tailored to your specific tastes, webcomics probably has it. And by reading webcomics, you can complain less about how the thing you want doesn't exist and spend more time being happy. 2) What I like most about the community is just being able to see lots of different people express themselves entirely differently from each other. That and the hard work everyone puts into their work. Set 4 1) 10 years from now I think someone will have come up with a way to auto format comics to better suit the medium they're on. So page format on desktop and print and vertical scroll on mobile. Thus reading experiences will be smoother. Not to say it won't be janky, but someone somewhere out there must be toying with something like this. Further, I think we will see a rise in some automations that make certain processes easier. Also, I think we'll see a rise in comics made with 3D instead of 2D, if only for the factor of accessibility. 20 years from now, that's hard to say. However, given the rapid pace of technology, one thing I think we might see is better computer vision and translation software so sites can auto generate multiple language versions of any comic.

2) In the long-term for changing the world, I will repeat what I said earlier to a degree. They'll create a world where people don't have wait to die to be noticed, and in so doing, they'll shape people's opinions since, by and large, that is one of the purposes of stories and the experience of stories.

Miranda (Into the Swell)

Set 4: 1. I think it will span out into a much more broad selection of art. I feel like a lot of the "most popoular" webcomics all have a similar anime art style and I feel like that will change more as time goes on. 2. I think they'll continue to bring people of different walks together and just give common ground. No one will feel alone because there will be something for everyone and a community behind all of it. I think they're going to be more accessible and less gated to devices/displays that your viewing them on. And I think there will be a lot more artists in the world because of them(edited)

mariah (rainy day dreams)

Your sets 3 and 4, Rebel just -oof- right in my heart I'm really excited about the possibilities of more and better automatic translation just on the internet in general, but definitely for webcomics that would be amazing if an AI could just translate mine and everyone else's into all the languages.

mathtans

Whelp, I'm behind again.

SET 1. With the caveat that I'm behind in all my reading. It's very sad. I'm still working on 2019 here.

1. My favourite might have to go to "The Cat, The Vine and The Victory". Just a really interesting concept, enjoyed the writing, there's a yuri couple (of sorts), a person who can't speak, it somehow updated really frequently... yeah.

https://tapas.io/series/The-Cat-The-Vine-and-The-Victory

mathtans

2. Here there's too many to mention. But I'll mention a bunch anyway and apologies to those I miss: CHAMPS, Centralia 2050, 7 inch Kara, Neon Rabbit, My Dad is a Magical Girl, Super Galaxy Knights Deluxe R, Nine Twilights... and the list goes on.

SET 2.

1. Favourite thing? This will sound weird, but I guess how they're always there. Like, I can't keep up even week to week, but suddenly there's some time to binge and you can see story and art evolve as you look at the last few months all at once. Actual comics hire different writers or artists a lot of the time, and if you miss an issue it can be a pain finding it. Though I also like the point that's been made about how there's access on the creation side too. And how communities can crop up based on them.

2. How did I get involved with webcomics. Sigh. Strap in. I'm one of those weird types who came in via writing, not art. In 2011 (oh no, I'm old) I had the idea of personifying mathematical equations, where the hairstyles would relate to the graphs. But not being an artist, I basically did short writing excerpts with character headshots. (Does anyone remember Elf Only Inn? Oh no, I'm still old.)

I didn't even know what to call it, I referred to it as a "webcomic thing". I've since learned that it was basically a serial, supplemented with some author art. The art got increasingly more complex to where I would design a one panel setting to complement the writing. Then, after 3 years of doing this, I stopped, because after all the social media (I joined mainly to promote the thing) and videos and the rest I had, like, 5 readers. But I kept kind of attached to webcomic groups and chats, even though I wasn't doing a webcomic.

(Like, wasn't doing and never had been doing.)

A year later, in 2015, I relaunched the whole project as an ACTUAL 4-panel webcomic with new character designs. I think it's around then that StArt Faire and CTP were brought to my attention by Angelic Emypress. Maybe it was the following year.

That's when I really hooked more into the community and made it a point to have CTP in my calendar. I then stopped doing my own webcomic in 2018 because, despite mirroring on Tapas and trying to do guest posts and continue to promote... I still only had, like, 6 readers. Also my daughter was born. So I didn't have as much free time to devote to something no one else was really into. I did manage to keep up with CTP until it went asynchronous, but I've been kind of a ghost since. So hello to people who wonder why I'm a Hibiscus Teacup when I'm almost never around these days.

TL;DR: I got involved in webcomics because I wanted to be doing one but didn't know how (and still don't have the art skills for it), but like to try to encourage other people. Because I know what it's like when less than a dozen people are aware your comic exists.

SET 3.

1. More should read because honestly seeing this stuff digitally is how this is all going these days... actual paper comics are becoming terribly overpriced. And this way you can pay what you're able (even if that's zero) to people who are just as amazing and creative. I'll also echo Rebel in that there's lots of variety out there.

2. The webcomic community... honestly, it's a lot like the serial community in terms of boosting each other up and offering moral support, which is great and necessary. Not just in the writing but in general. And without it, I would never have had any artwork of my characters that I didn't specifically commission. Whether it was a trade initiative or in one weird case a random post to me, these were people taking the time to let me see my vision in a new way. I always posted and credited that stuff. It meant a lot.

I'll do the last couple sets this weekend, hopefully. Nice to see everyone else's thoughts up there. ^^

carcarchu

@mathtans i don't think i can agree with this point. sadly there have been plenty of webcomics i loved but when the sites imploded (smackjeeves) or they stopped paying for their website host they were lost to time forever. also a lot of artists just straight up purge their work from the internet forever from embarrassment

Cronaj ~{Whispers of the Past}~

^ Me with the first several versions of my comic

mathtans

Carcarchu: That's a good point I hadn't considered. Guess I've been fortunate in that most of the ones I follow just go on indefinite hiatus at worst.

Hope the site with the CTP archives doesn't get bought out and shut down or something.

Comic Tea Party

Question Set 5 of 5 1. How can people reach you after this? 2. Final parting words?

carcarchu

1. You can usually catch me on twitter! https://twitter.com/kurumadraws 2. This is not farewell, just good-bye for now hope to see most of you again soon!

LadyLazuli (Phantomarine)

1. I’m always on Twitter! http://www.twitter.com/Phantomarine_ 2. Thank you so much for giving us this server. This has been such a fun place to make new friends and discuss comics. The book club for Phantomarine was one of my favorite things ever - I had an absolute blast. Thank you again for your hard work, and see you all around!

Tuyetnhi (Only In Your Dreams!)

1. I'm at twitter and other discord servers you can see me lurking in https://twitter.com/tuyetnhip

2. Thanks for everything for the server! I hope to see the rest of you somewhere near or far on internet land

mariah (rainy day dreams)

1. You can find me on Twitter and various other discords (including my own that just opened up last week!) https://twitter.com/RainyDayMariah https://discord.gg/6S6Zsw 2. I'm very sad to be saying goodbye for now, even though I know I'll still see most of you in various corners of the internet going forward. This discord had a really special energy that I'm going to miss a lot. Just saying thank you doesn't feel like enough, but truly, thank you so much for the time we've spent together. See you in cyberspace

Miranda (Into the Swell)

Cronaj ~{Whispers of the Past}~

Set 3 1. Why do you think more people should read webcomics? I basically already said this, but webcomics offer a diverse reading experience. 2. What do you like the most about the webcomic community? Readers can actually interact with creators! It's so cool to see the barrier between readers and creators dissipate most of the time. Set 4 1. How do you think webcomics will have changed 10 years from now? What about 20? The biggest change I think we'll be seeing within the decade is that more and more comics will be put behind a paywall like Lezhin or Tapas. In 20 years? I think the internet will be pretty different then. Perhaps there will be more censorship? 2. In the long-term, how will have webcomics changed the world? I think the most immediate thing is that webcomics open the world up to discussing more topics. As webcomics enter the mainstream, discussing these things in a public setting will become more normalized.

As for where you can find me, you can find me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/CronajArt Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cronaj_art/ ArtStation: https://www.artstation.com/cronaj My webcomic server: https://discord.gg/ueWBfdp Or in a lot of other servers!

I hope that this isn't actually goodbye for us, and is just a "see you around!" As we all move forward, hopefully, side by side.

mathtans

SET 4.1: 10 years from now... I'm so bad at predictions. I can't even think properly about how different they were 10 years ago, though I suppose they are more mainstream. Perhaps there will be easier ways to archive or paper print a whole set. Hopefully also more representation from minority groups, and less concern with RL problems causing schedule hiccups. Which I guess just goes double for 20 years.

Though maybe there will be more animated webcomics, or holographic ones by then, or something.

SET 4.2: Long-term, hopefully it helps people feel more confident even if they're not the most amazing artist or anything. Also as was said by Miranda, bringing people together in terms of common ground.

SET 5.1: Reach me? I'm pretty much 'mathtans' everywhere (except on Facebook, where I'm mathstans because someone else got it there first). For social media, probably twitter's the best bet, as many others have led with. https://twitter.com/mathtans

I also have [email protected] (does anyone here remember OS-tans? ... Anyway)

SET 5.2: Parting words? Thank you. I really just stumbled my way in here, a writer who doesn't know much beyond the basics of art, and have tried to do my best to offer accolades and constructive criticism. Rebel, you have done an amazing job, don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise. There was a time when I would sometimes look at the archive of a chat just to see what the pull quote was at the top. To those who actually spent some time reading my comic, thank you too... some of the nonsense is forever immortalized in Feb 2018. https://mathtans.blogspot.com/2018/02/s9332-faire-game.html

And best of luck to everyone out there, whether you've been at this for a while like me (probably showing better results, serious) or whether you've just started out. I can only hope I've made something of a difference out there. Until the next time.

Tantz Aerine (Without Moonlight)

Oh Lord I am so behind all this, with my RL tackling me to the ground... but I'll quickly answer these too, pardon my complete lack of timing. SET 1 1. Phantomarine is the one comic I loved because I was so late to the party (pun not completely intended ) 2. Phantomarine. Gosh I feel like I missed so much of this community. SET 2 1. It's the sheer freedom to create. 2. I started making comics for my students to teach them English. Then one thing led to another... SET3 1. More people should read webcomics because they are where the hub of creation in visual arts is. Experimentation, pluralism, excitement, passion. Everything is there. People will and do benefit as well as get entertained. 2. The sheer inclusivity, diversity, and curiosity that fuels creation. Friendliness, too, when people get to know you. SET 4 1. For better or worse, webcomics are becoming responsive to the means through which they are being experienced. We will always have standard formats but new will emerge that take advantage of new technologies as they come. Vertical format is one such example. In 20 years, webcomics would have become an industry, very much like print comics did, I'd say. 2. Webcomics change the world the same way art generally does: by reflecting society back to itself, and exploring ideas. SET 5 1. You can totally find me on twitter https://twitter.com/TantzAerine and if you will be so awesome as to want to read my historical webcomic Without Moonlight, you can find it here http://www.withoutmoonlightwebcomic.com/ . I definitely hope to see you. 2. I have been of the newest members of the community and I feel like I missed a whole world of richness. Still, I am thankful for what I got, and for the care and passion of everyone who kept the Comic Tea Party going for as long as it did. Thank you, and all the best.

Halloween Special 6 | A Long Drive

Taehyung and Reader

Genre: Horror

Word count: 1,542 words

A/N: This story is based on a popular urban legend.

A week-long Halloween Special, also for Bangtan Bookclub’s October Supernatural Challenge!

[1] Late Night Shower (Seokjin) [2] Extra Passenger (Yoongi) [3] Regional Photos (Hoseok) [4] Found Me (Namjoon) [5] Visiting Granny (Jimin) [6] A Long Drive (Taehyung) [7] Secret Tunnel (Jungkook)

Disclaimer/Copyright

"Agh! Whose bright idea was it to take the old road?!" You made a loud noise of frustration when the car bounced over yet another pothole.

"It was yours, remember?" Taehyung answered your rhetorical question calmly, surprisingly still patient. "To avoid the tolls."

His reminder put an end to your complaints. Vocally at least. Leaning back into the passenger seat, you sighed resolutely, then winced as her drove your car over another hole in the poorly maintained road. The idea to take the old, longer route instead of sticking to the highway was yours, but now you were starting to wonder if avoiding the rising toll prices was worth the extra petrol and time taken to travel this road, not to mention the damage your car was taking.

Glancing at Taehyung, who was at the wheel, you bit back the suggestion that had popped up in your mind earlier. He was already driving slow enough, and besides, you were eager to reach campus so you could finally rest properly in a horizontal position. It was way past midnight and you wanted to sleep, but you just couldn't seem to do it in the car. It was also your policy as a co-driver to converse with the driver to keep him company — and more importantly, awake — even though Taehyung had told you to just sleep if you wanted to.

"I can't wait to get there and hit the hay." Taehyung's dreamy statement, giving voice to your inner thoughts prompted you to ask, "Do you want me to take over the driving?"

With a shake of his head and a smile, he turned your offer down. "I'm good. Besides, it's dangerous to stop in the middle of the road."

You snorted in a thoroughly unlady-like manner. "It's not like there's anyone else around." Due to the late hour and the existence of the newly built highway, the road you were using was completely devoid of people. Not that it surprised you. In fact, you'd much rather be on the well-lit highway yourself.

"Oh?"

Just then, Taehyung murmured a sound conveying his surprise at the same time your own eyes registered a pair of car lights approaching from behind. After being in the near darkness for so long with only the light from the moon, your own car and the very occasional street lights to accompany you, the yellow orbs on your rear seemed glaring and out of place. Yet it gave you a sense of camaraderie, of knowing you and Taehyung weren't the only ones braving this path that night.

However, the lights quickly drifted closer and closer until the car was right on your tail. Then they grew in intensity and size, before diminishing and exploding behind you again. This time it was Taehyung who made an irritated sound.

"What does he expect me to do? There is only one lane." His disgruntled complaints filled the car as we were blinded by the flashes. "If he wants to overtake us so much, use the next lane, there's no one around anyway."

Part of you were amused by the fact that he was justifying the car using the lane next to yours meant for vehicles moving in the opposite direction using your earlier reasoning. On the other hand, you were getting annoyed too, so you grunted your approval to his suggestion.

Taehyung inched your car towards the shoulder of the road, trying to convey to the vehicle behind you his intention. Thankfully it was easily understood, and the car drove swiftly past using the other lane, re-entered yours then sped off into the night.

The excitement quickly died down after that, and you came up with various topics of conversation to keep Taehyung entertained as he drove. It worked quite well until you saw another set of lights approaching from behind.

"Wow, it suddenly became very busy," was Taehyung's only remark, and you were just as surprised as he was, enough that you couldn't think of anything to say.

You wondered where all these cars were just half an hour ago, and why they were in such a hurry. This one also started flashing you and Taehyung as it got closer, then overtaking you just like the one before.

When the third car made its appearance, neither you nor Taehyung said anything, although you were sure that he was just as perplexed as you were. This time when it got closer, you turned around in your seat to look at it. The bright lights made it difficult for you to see anything, but Taehyung answered the question in your head for you.

"It's the same car," he whispered, and you could see him watching it through the rear view mirror.

"What?" Your sleep-deprived brain couldn't process his words fast enough, and the car zoomed past you before you could take a proper look at it.

Not that it mattered, because before long another one materialised behind you. "An orange sedan," Taehyung informed you, and upon closer look, you saw that he was right. Silently you wondered how you could have missed such a bright colour before. Then again, it was pretty dark, especially when the sliver of crescent moonlight was obscured by the clouds.

It passed you as well, but soon after disappearing from your front view it came from behind you again. A mumbled cursed escaped Taehyung's lips, but there wasn't much either of you could do. In any case, it didn't seem to be harmful.

Of course, that wasn't to say that it didn't pique your curiosity. When the next car slid next to yours to overtake you, you made the mistake of actually peering inside it.

"Tae." Your call for him was faint, in shock while you watched it accelerate away. "No one is driving that car."

"What?"

"There's no one inside that car."

His curse at your news was louder this time. Both of you looked at the rear, anticipating the mysterious orange car's next appearance, but it never came. As the minutes crawled by, both of you started to relax, until you could talk to each other normally again, eager to put the bizarre experience behind you.

Not far from your destination now, you started feeling relief of approaching the end of the long journey seeping through your skin, but before it could diffuse through your being, you saw a figure on the side of the road. "Taehyung, look."

Turning his attention towards the direction your index finger was pointing at, he asked, "Should we stop?"

"Shouldn't we?" Even though you were the one who called attention to the young woman holding her arm out, your query was filled with doubt. With a shrug, Taehyung followed your direction and pressed on the brake so the car stopped next to her.

"Is something the matter?" Rolling the window down, you addressed the woman. She couldn't have been much older than you were, clad in a simple white dress her long dark hair tied in a loose braid that hung off her left shoulder.

"Could you please give me a lift?" She pleaded in a soft, airy voice that had a dream-like quality to it. "I'm too tired to walk any further, but my place is not very far from here."

You exchanged a quick glance with Taehyung, but ultimately said, "Sure, hop in."

After Taehyung unlocked the doors, she climbed in and thanked both of you. She fell silent after that, not offering a reason as to why she was wandering around in the middle of nowhere in the wee hours of the morning, only opening her mouth to give Taehyung directions to her place. True to her word, it wasn't far, and after ten minutes she instructed Taehyung to stop.

The area was completely devoid of light. As she stepped out with another expression of her gratitude, you tried to peer at her house but you couldn't make anything out past the large iron gates. Following her advice, Taehyung drove straight and you arrived at the t-junction that she'd described.

"The campus is only five minutes from here," Taehyung said happily, recognising the junction.

Lack of sleep was plaguing you the following day, but you brightened at the sight of Taehyung sitting at a table outside a cafe with his friends. Without hesitation, you quickly sauntered over and pulled up a chair to join them. "What are you guys talking about?"

"That orange car we saw last night."

"As I told Tae just now, that road is haunted," Joshua filled you in. "Just be glad that you're still alive."

"So what happened then?" Andy inquired curiously.

"Nothing. It just stopped appearing behind us. Then we found a woman by the side of the road and gave her a lift back to her house. It's only about fifteen minutes from here, actually."

Except for Taehyung, the other boys at the table stared at you following your explanation.

"There are no houses around here," Andy said with a shake of his head.

"Sure there is," Taehyung corrected him. "Just about ten kilometers after the t-junction near the west gate."

A sinking feeling made your stomach feel as heavy as lead when Andy's expression darkened at Taehyung's description. "Dude, that's a cemetery."

Quarantine Reads Part 3

Part 1 Here

Part 2 Here

I did not care about your life.

52. All Our Wrong Todays by Elan Mastai: a man from an alternate timeline finds himself stranded in OUR 2016 and encounters our versions of people in his life including his soulmate? does he stay or go back to the timeline he knows?

54. A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles: my mom and i decided to start a bookclub with just ourselves as a structured way to stay in touch and also because we have a lot of the same books on our TBRs and this was the first one. amazing.

55. The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins: don’t worry, Coriolanus Snow is not set up to be Pensieve Memories!Snape. it was really cool to see the worldbuilding and origins of the Hunger Games themselves and what the districts/tributes used to have to endure - plus she tied in the songs from the movies and managed to firmly root them in the lore

56. The Women Who Made New York by Julie Scelfo: quick read about the history of new york from the women who were there

57. The Tattooist of Auschwitz by Heather Morris: i really liked this one, a Holocaust novel from a perspective i hadn’t read before. and i’m 88% sure that its based on the real people involved? also trigger warnings for what you’d expect from a Jewish protagonist in a WW2 novel. there’s a sequel out now.

58. The Book of the Unnamed Midwife by Meg Elison: yet another accidental plague novel. i didn’t know anything about it when i started and if i had i probably wouldn’t have opened it. in a near future world a plague breaks out that kills something like 98% of women and babies. our pov is a midwife who somehow survives being sick and starts making her way through the northwest and her misadventures. trigger warning for kidnapping, rape, disease, sexual assault, violence, murder, starvation. it ends hopeful if not happy? book one in a series.

59. Hidden Figures by Margot Lee Shetterly: fantastic read on the whole. i usually have trouble with group biographies like these because i want there to be more plot despite it just being people’s lives? like duh, sometimes life is boring and that’s okay. also i usually feel like there’s too much extended family information in bios (i know i felt that way when i read jim hensons and mr. rogers’) but i digress. BLACK LADIES DOING MATH TO GET TO SPACE HELL YES. also there’s a movie, but i haven’t watched it yet because i think about black ladies doing math to get into space and i want to reread the lady astronaut series and watch the martian

60. Brida by Paulo Coelho: a short, weird book. young irish woman wants to explore her magic with experts, meets two that have opposing views on tapping into her power and she struggles with that.

66. The Road by Cormac McCarthy: i know people have lots of opinions about this author, both positive and negative. my opinion is that i probably won’t read more by him without a good reason

67. Moving Pictures by Terry Pratchett: 10th book in the Discworld series, riffs on hollywood/filmmaking industries, dogs as the heroes, lots of wordplay and puns so buckle up

68. Shatterglass by Tamora Pierce: Tris’ POV, theres a serial killer loose in the slums, Tris learns to see the future/present by seeing pictures on the wind. featuring a HUGE dog and accidental child acquisition

69. Nothing Like a Dame: Conversations with the Great Women of Musical Theater by Eddie Shapiro: what it says on the tin. an excellent group including a bunch i hadn’t heard of before.

70. Fight No More: Stories by Lydia Millet: short story collection, a touch surreal, a touch magical realism

71. The Library of the Unwritten: AJ Hackwith: book 1 in the Hell’s Library series. adventure story. demons, angels, and librarians stuck in limbo. the library can fight back.

72. When It’s A Jar by Tom Holt: book 2 in the YouSpace universe, you don’t need to read the first one, but i think it helps. ridiculous. discworld adjacent but less wordplay.

73. This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone: novella, alternating POV, plays with timelines. half epistolary??? kinda???, plays with form in a way i haven’t seen before.

74. The Ones Who Look by Katharine Duckett: tor.com short story. custom built afterlives based on each person’s uploads.

75. The Hero of Ages by Brandon Sanderson: book 3 in the first mistborn trilogy. absolutely need to read the other 2 books first. fantasy. brandon doesn’t know how to write a short book. the first book starts off like a heist story and then they invent their own religion. so that’s fun. lotta people die in this series. but hey they’re trying to save the world.
