Hey, Sis,

So, I've been thinking about putting together a bucket list. I had one a long time ago and my ex saw it and helped me to cross some of those off. He took me horseback riding for my birthday. Of course, we didn't have a guide and we needed one cause the horses knew we didn't know what we were doing and mine stopped to eat grass and i told him to go and he tried to buck me off. Needless to say, we had to change horses. But that was cool. I'd like to do it in a situation where I had a guide, or someone could teach me a thing or two first.

He took me to The Grand Canyon. We didn't get to stay long but I definitely saw it. Well, part of it, lol. I definitely want to go back and see a different part or look at it a bit longer. And he helped me with a few others.

Anyway, I had been thinking about this - before I even met you and learned of your love of cherries - but I have ALWAYS wanted to try Cherries Jubilee. I mean, always. I absolutely LOVE Bananas Foster - it is my all-time favorite dessert. We have a Cajun restaurant here that makes it, but it's mostly ice cream, lol. I've had it once where there was a lot more banana and a lot more Foster and that was good too. But I am putting Cherries Jubilee on my list. I know of no one who serves it. So ... I will probably only get it if I ever go on a cruise that offers it, or I make it. But I'm going to work it out.

That leads me to going on a cruise. But it has to be the right one to the right place, because I am not rich. I am not married to Izzy Stradlin unfortunately. I will get to go on one cruise. And really, did he ever have to go on a cruise? I mean, he probably had a yacht chartered once or twice. What am I saying? Probably a lot of times. I think he once performed at a wedding in St. Tropez and another one in Spain, so ... I digress. Sorry.

So:

Cherries Jubilee

Cruise

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

Graceland / Memphis

Washington D.C.

(I didn't go on the 8th grade trip - sure wish I had cause it would have been much cheaper with the whole student discount/8th grade program the government works out with the schools. Did you go on it?)

Oh ... I think I want to try Caviar one time. Not a lot. Just once.

Hmmm ... a couple I will not share here, lol. But I still think they are very necessary and worthwhile endeavors!

So, these are not goals, but just things to check off.

Have you done any or all of the things on my bucket list above? Have you had Cherries Jubilee, and if so, where?! Actually, I'm pretty sure you've been to Graceland - and I know you have been to Memphis. Just unsure of the rest!

Love,

Your Sis xoxoxo

I have done three of the things on your bucket list: Graceland twice, two cruises, and Washington DC.

The DC trip was my 8th grade class trip. I would love to go back now because I feel like I didn’t appreciate it as much back then as I would now.

I have been to GL twice, once when I was 17 and another time probably about 9 or 10 years ago with Eric. Of course, I’ve been to Memphis, I’m still here. 😆

One cruise was when I was 8. My mom and stepdad took my sister (who was 18 at the time) and her boyfriend and me on the Disney cruise/Bahamas for my sister’s graduation present. I got a cruise for MY grad present too, but ours was a bit different: a three day cruise to the Bahamas (on a smaller cruise ship, where I was seasick the first night), then 4 days in Orlando for all things Disney. Just me, my mom, and my 6 month preggo sister. Fun fact about the Disney cruise when I was 8: they thought it would be funny to feed me escargot, so they ordered me a dish, told me it was PORK, and I loved it so much, they ordered me a second dish. I did not find out until much later that escargot = SNAILS lol. I was not as grossed out as I probably should’ve been, and I’ve had it a few times since then. I still love it. Go figure.

I have also had caviar. I love that too. Goes great with smoked salmon and cream cheese on some fancy ass crackers.

Never had cherries jubilee, but it sounds yummy.

The R&RHOF would be fun. I love doing that kind of shit.

https://webslingingslasher.tumblr.com/post/738721361856528384/how-long-ago-was-the-candygrams-fic-bc-thats-how

HIII im back, i missed you!!!! <3

you did even BETTER than candygrams. the double drop was perfect. care less is everythinggggggggggg to me!! no bc seeing peter being the excited one is so🥹🥹🥹 i will never get tired of seeing him excited to show trouble how much he loves her. he was literally dying to shower her with love and i wanna cry bc look at how far they've come😭😭 also the ethan appearances, 🥹 ill melt, why was everything so perfect!!!

ok this ask is gonna be long im sorry but i cant tell u how much i loved everything!!

"It’s about how you love someone so much, there aren't enough things in the world to buy to show it, and there are never the right set of words to say it quite right.

i actually cried. THIS is how he feels for trouble?😭😭 there isnt enough things in the world to show how much he loves her? im sick.

"I’ll buy all the flowers in the world for you, and I’ll use all the air in my lungs for these balloons but it’ll never match the love I have for you.”

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

my ex never even bought me flowers. him saying hed buy all the flowers in the world (and i know he would too) made me cry😭 THE AIR FOR THE BALLOONS. oh he's so soft

"Peter does and he’s going to get his valentine’s day, no matter what. And you’re going to enjoy a handmade card. And a teddy bear."

😭😭 idk why but seeing peter so determined over a little teddy bear is everything to me bc hes So Manly and sexy but like. hes on a mission to get the perfect teddy bear :(((( ill cry. hes so cute

"But, maybe you’d like a handmade one more. He can do that."

no bc he's so attentive. 😭. yk the quote 'to be loved is to be seen?' that's peter.

i love seeing this side of peter ahshdj he really did feel everything the whole time didn't he? but just kept it hidden the same way trouble held back her love - i feel like he may have held back even more. & the way he kept trying again and insisting to find something perfect that she'd like is everything to me :( like... he spent so much on that card and she straight up said he hated it and he didn't even care, his thought was 'how can i get her to like it?'/'how can i get her a card she'd like?'

also i actually cried ab the rose bouquets thrown in the wardrobe haphazardly and the petals falling everywhere :((( poor baby. i love him so much gufigd

im gna stop bc this is gna be TOO long but i loved literally every word, why was it so cute😭 and dont even get me started on unknown sender, we'd be here for hours, literally (which im happy to do xoxoxo but i feel like its annoyingjdkgljkd)

wait last thing:

Your hearts about to explode, “fuck, I love-” you stop yourself, but you heard it and so did Peter. He brushes it off, “love?” Fuck it, you’ll both keep circling around it. “Yeah, I love love.” A hungry kiss, a squeeze to the back of your thighs. “Yeah, I love love, too.”

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 i cant deal with this😭

ok ily bye

-lula xo

THIS IS SO AMAZING AND SWEET AND WONDERFUL AND HOLY WOW THIS IS SO NICE I???? THIS MEANS THE WORLD TO MEEE

lifes honestly been so much better recently. like aside from processing a retarded amount of trauma ive dealt with since i was a kid and even recently (circa 2016-2021), i think ive gotten past a good chunk of it

my dad sucks is really the take away. my mum does too at points but less so than my dad. shes just kinda fucked up from her own bs and thats okay. she tried processing it and going to therapy, and my dad did the opposite

ive kinda just accepted ill never have any kind of relationship wt my sperm donor again, and it feels really good. he put me through so much shit. been telling my mum whats been happening over the years and shes fucking HORRIFIED. she broke down after i told her some of the shit hes done over the years. like a part of me knew it was bad but it was so normalized that i never thought about how fucked up it all was until actually verbalizing it

the bastards been stealing shit from the house too to sell of for drug money. he hasnt lived here for a year but hell still show up when no ones around and take shit. hes stolen shit from me too, thankfully we have cameras everywhere so my mum was able to tell him to give me back my shit and he actually did. but then he stole other shit from the house to sell so it kinda cancelled out lol

he SUUUUUCKS

other than that shit, life been okay. positives being ive been dating my bf for a year now and were pretty happy with eachother. hes talked about marriage and stuff and thats pretty cool. id marry the shit out of him

works been great too. i transferred to another building and its been goin super good. i got promo offers my first week, and months later (ie now) im being told that they wanna promo me to a management position which is fucking fantastic. i like MONEY, and i like that this building actually appreciates the effort im putting in. i had people rooting for me at my last building, but ive been fucked over way too many times at that building to stick around, so its nice to be given some actual direction now

my ex best friend is apparently getting fat and that made me laugh pretty hard. for all the shit she put me through and how insecure she is, enjoy the extra weight queen xoxoxo

ive been really enjoying paddle boarding recently. my bf and i go out on the water and just kinda chill and listen to music and eat n have beer and its really relaxing. im also actually tanning and not staying super pasty white LOL

im a LITTLE tequila fancy rn so im probably gunna log off now, but im gunna try to journal again, and this is the easiest way to do it. gunna try to stick to it

#omg also since actually getting away from my shitty ex friend ive been getting really into keyboards #i have 5 right now and im working on modding out my epomaker skyline so i can get it sounding how i want it to #amazon prime day also maxe it possible to buy many MANY switch sets to play around with #tryna also find a new keyboard to get so i can fuck around with it and not have to worry abt destroying it #i have gotten very VERY into it

The Walker Residence

“So, how are things going with Liam?” Drake asked with a smirk on his face.

Jessica smiled, “It’s going. But did he like, order an extra cupcake, and Emily's concerned that there may be someone else?”

He held up a hand, “Whoa, it was a simple question. Why get worked up? I just wanted to know if I could formally meet him. Now, to cupcakes: Emily says he orders the usual.”

“It’s been two months. I’m not seeing anyone but I wonder if he is. I'm glad I'm off the street. I'm like a shitty detective. I can't figure him out, I should just. Just pull the bandaid.” Jessica nervously combed her fingers in her hair.

“No, you don't need to ask. He should respect you and tell you if there is anyone else.”

She sighed to herself. “I just don't want to fall flat on my face again and waste my time, Drake.”

He considered her position a moment before saying. “Let me talk to him.”

She blinked up at him. “What?”

“Okay fine, let your brothers talk to him then. You saw what they did to your little Paramedic friend.”

She cringed at the memory. “They towed his car like three times and put a boot on his car.”

“Well, why don't you invite him camping with us?”

“Drake, I think I want to be this guy’s girlfriend not scare him away.”

“Well, first of all; it's a family camping night. He can bring Chance, Polly would love that. I get to meet the guy and learn more about him and tell you whether he's worth keeping around.”

Jessica thought for a moment, an unsure look on her face before she nodded. “Well...Just avoid talking about his family, he seems to shut down. He said he is preparing himself to visit them next month when he is off. His brother is getting married to some girl named Madeleine and he can’t stand her. His ex-girlfriend is supposed to be in attendance. They were like childhood sweethearts but they outgrew each other. The whole thing has me on edge.”

Drake put a hand on her shoulder, “Garcia, I am your friend, alright? I know you better than most would. Let me feel him out. Just invite him.”

Campgrounds

Catskills, New York

Liam smiled as they walked to the campsite as a group. “Thanks for inviting me. I love camping.”

Drake nodded, “No problem. Any friend of Jessica is welcome.”

Polly piped up beside them, “Chance! Mr. Rys!”

He smiled down at her as the Corgi stood at his foot. “You're very welcome, Polly. But you can call me...Ummm, Li if we aren’t in school.”

She grinned up at him. “Li, I want to play with Chance!”

“Sure, once we get settled.”

They reached the campsite, Drake dropping the supplies. “Okay, we got two tents.”

“Títi (Aunt) Jessie!” Polly shouted.

Drake shook his head, “Nope, sorry kid. You're bunking with me."

“But why?” She whined.

Drake pursed his lips as Liam stared at the ground.

Emily smiled at her daughter and said, “Because...Because we will miss you!”

Liam gave Jessica a look, “Looks like we're sharing a tent.” He thought to himself. ‘I wouldn’t want it any other way.’

Jessica shrugged, “Looks like it.” ‘Glad I got that wax; this could be it. It’s got to be a big lemon Liam crayon.’ Jessica thought to herself as she looked at Liam’s hands.

Liam turned around and Jessica gave Drake a thumbs up. Liam walked over, giving Chance to Polly.

“How about I help pitch one of the tents with you?”

Drake gave a huff, “If you think you can handle it, knock yourself out.”

Jessica smirked, “Tent race!”

“What? Garcia, we aren’t 12 years old. Besides, I'm a stickler for safety and I will not be setting up a death trap for my family.” Drake said.

“Liam, I apologize. Drake is still a sore loser.”

Drake frowned, "JESSICA, tents are efficient. Besides, you can’t compare your little princess tent to my star wars tent. The death star had more pieces than yours.”

“Sounds like quitter talk to me.”

Drake glared, “Then why aren't you doing it?”

She rolled her eyes, “Because I have to be the judge. Duh.”

Liam shrugged at Drake, “I don’t mind a little friendly competition.”

Drake gave him a once over. “Okay, fine.”

Jessica readied a stopwatch on her phone. “Time starts… Now.”

Drake and Liam both quickly opened the brand new tent packets. Drake didn't bother reading the instructions while Liam quickly skimmed. Drake was already setting up the tent before he halted.

“What the-” He picked up a pole, “Now, why are they adding this thing?”

Liam effortlessly got his tent standing, “Oh, newer models sometimes have a stabilizer bar now. It said it connects to the main compartment in the instructions.”

Drake glared, “I've set up tents my whole life, I don't need that thing.”

Liam's tent was already up and stable. Drake's tent stood but the moment he went to connect the rope to the pike into the ground, it collapsed. Meanwhile, Liam was already hammering in his third pike. His strength and muscles on his arms caught her eye. As Jessica looked at Liam she was biting her lip, ranting in her mind ‘I have two problems not knowing where I stand but also wanting to lay down on my back.’

“And...DONE!”

Drake scoffed, “What?!”

Liam stood up with a smirk, “Tent's done...What do the judges say?”

Polly and Jessica walked up to it before shoving it. It didn't budge.

“This one!” Polly declared with Chance in her arms.

Drake huffed, “If it was an old tent.”

Liam smiled, “You need help?”

Drake threw up his hands, “Sure, why not.”

Emily chuckled to herself as she got things out of the cooler.

Jessica looked at Polly, “We need to get some firewood. You're helping.”

“But Chance?” Polly pouted.

“Paloma, come with us, it will be fun,” Emily said softly.

Liam smiled at her, “He will be here waiting for you.”

Polly the four-year-old puffed the air and said, “Okay.” Before skipping back to Jessica and Emily to go get firewood.

Drake and Liam worked on the last tent before Drake started the conversation.

“So, I take it you and Jessica are getting serious?”

Liam faltered, “I guess we are.”

“What makes you say that?”

“We spend a lot of time together. I never want it to end. I really enjoy being with her, in fact, I really care about her a lot. That's why I'm apprehensive. I don't want to mess this up, you know? I don't want to pressure her into things or seem clingy. ”

“Jessica has been in my life since we were kids and she is VERY important to me don't waste her time.”

Liam looked at Drake hopefully, “You think she wants to be official?”

Drake nodded, “Just tell me this; do you care about her?”

His gaze softened, “I can’t stop thinking about her.”

Drake nodded in approval, “Okay. Well, you’re going away so I mean, you might want to settle this before you leave.”

Jessica, Emily, and Polly returned. Polly ran to Chance and began to pet him. Drake started the fire as Liam got cozy next to Jessica on a tree stump. Polly sat between Emily and Drake, Chance happily in her lap.

Drake smirked as he grabbed a bag of marshmallows and sticks, handing them to everyone.

“Look at that, Polly. Daddy’s favorite S'mores!” Emily smiled and put Polly’s marshmallow on a stick and held it to the fire. Chance wiggled in Polly arms after it came off the fire, urgently trying to snatch it.

Drake readied his s'more along with Liam. Jessica pulled out a pack of Reese's pieces from her pocket to put on her marshmallow graham cracker. Liam playfully snatched the bag away.

He gave a gasp, “That's an abomination!”

Drake nodded in agreement, “Exactly. Peanut butter does not belong on a s'more.”

“Why are you both ganging up on me?” Jessica said with a smile.

Drake snorted and chimed in, “Once she put M&M's on her S'more...Peanut M&M’s. ”

Liam shook his head, “Here I thought I knew you.”

Jessica rolled her eyes and tried snatching it back. Liam teasingly held it out of her reach as she tried to grab it.

“Hey! It's my s'more, weirdos!” She huffed, trying not to laugh.

Liam chuckled and shook his head, “Nope. I cannot allow it. It's not right.”

“It’s a S’mextra.”

“Why are you like this, Jess?” Liam asked.

Jessica burst out laughing, “Okay, marshmallow police. Just give me my candy back.”

Liam chuckled and tossed it back to her before he readied her marshmallow. “I will make your S'more.”

Jessica looked at Polly who had sticky marshmallows and chocolate on her face. “Can you believe this?”

Polly shrugged, “We do it Daddy’s way.”

“Fine.” Jessica crossed her arms

Liam made her s'more and Jessica purposely put her Reeses pieces onto the sticky center. Liam collapsed against the log dramatically that made Polly giggle.

Jessica playfully stuck her tongue at him and munched on it.

Drake said, "Okay, it's time to tell the story."

Liam raised a brow, “A story?”

Jessica chimed in, “Yep, it's a family tradition to tell a story around the fire.”

Drake said, “Since you are the guest, you get to.”

Liam nodded and thought a moment before speaking. “Okay...This story is… A fairytale. It takes place in a kingdom far away on the ocean. There once was a Prince named Constantine who was unhappy with his life but did his duty of being the Crown Prince. It was a tradition that he had to pick a bride to be Queen. He had to do so in order to be King.’

Jessica rested her chin in her hand as she listened, her knees to her chest. “Oh, wonder if the new Queen gets to pick out her own Crown.”

Liam smiled “You know, not all Queens wear crowns.”

Jessica smiled and blushed as he gazed at her before Drake cleared his throat, “Can we get back to the plot?”

He gazed over at her, “SO, this Prince goes on a trip to New York, a breathtaking woman caught his eyes. He thought she was the most beautiful woman he laid eyes on. She had long blonde hair and blue eyes. He fell in love with her instantly. Her name was Riley Lily Brooks. She was not like the princesses back home; she was witty, funny, kind, and brave. She was a simple waitress waiting at his table one night. When she told him he was a Prince she wasn’t scared she just treated him the same. They shared a magical kiss before he left for his kingdom. He thought he would never see her again. But one friend surprised him and brought her to his kingdom to compete for his heart.”

Drake lifted a brow and said, “This just sounds like Disney meets the Bachelor and somehow I’m into it.”

Emily laughed. “He also reads romance novels. Just putting it all out there, Liam.”

Liam smiled at Emily, “Good to know. I read them too.”

Drake stood up in his seat “ Let me know if you want to join. `The Choices Book Club’ I have an in.”

Jessica looked at Drake and shook her head and asked, “Why couldn't he marry her without competing? "

“Well, because that was the kingdom's tradition. The woman proved herself time and time again. She won his heart but rules dictated she still had to compete for his hand. In such a short time their love grew and Constantine loved her with all his heart; she was the other half of his soul.”

Jessica listened intently as he continued, “Riley was his….Everything. When Coronation night came, he knew she was the one. However, it came and-”

Liam stopped as Chance yawned and he looked over to see Polly fast asleep. Drake smiled and gently scooped her up.

“I guess Chance is sleeping with us tonight.” He mumbled.

Liam nodded, “Go ahead.”

Drake took Polly to the tent to settle her in as Jessica sat with him at the fire.

“I think we need to go to the tent as well, the fire is dying down." She hinted.

Liam and Jessica went to their tent and collapsed together on the blankets and pillows. Jessica smirked at the skylight the tent had.

Liam laid beside her, “This reminds me of our first date on the rooftop. That was one of the best nights of my life.”

Jessica gave him a quick kiss on the temple “I feel the same. Oh, look.” She pointed to a constellation, “Orion is prominent tonight. It’s interesting, did you know it’s sometimes referred to as Los Tres Reyes Mangos (The three magic Kings)? Or just the three Kings.”

“¡Si! Well, in South America when I looked at it, our guide called it Las Tres Marías… The three Maria’s.”

Jessica rolled over to face him, and Liam turned to face her as well. He lovingly ran his hands through her hair and she smiled as she said, “So that's some story.”

“I have a wild imagination.”

She smirked, “Gosh, a competition. In a Foreign Country to marry a Prince.”

Liam pursed his lip and said, “You would do it? I mean, if you were selected, you would be a Princess.”

“Me? A Princess? Shut up! I mean I would be scared but I guess like Riley you have to just be brave and try. I imagine I would have to learn a lot of things really fast but for me, I think I would be more intimidated by falling in love more than his position.”

He grinned as he reached over to rub his hand on her hip. “Is that so?”

Jessica bit her lip and gazed at him “No one wants to fall flat on their face.”

He kissed her forehead and said, “Sometimes your heart works faster than your mind.”

“Yeah. It does. So you just stay quiet and hope that it works out that the other person feels just half as much as you do.”

“Why settle for half?”

Jessica found her eyes water and said, “It hurts less.”

Liam cupped her chin and looked at her.

“You’re staring at me.”

“Sorry, I can’t help it. You’re so gorgeous. Jess, you deserve every part of someone, not half.”

His lips crashed into hers and he held her close to him deepening his kiss. They both felt the heat radiating within them want more from each other. Jessica broke their kiss first and said, “God, your lips are so soft.”

He chuckled and kissed her again, pulling her close. She moaned into the kiss, throwing her arms around his neck. He groaned as his tongue slipped in to massage hers and he cupped her rear in his large hand.

They parted as his other hand went to her shirt, trying to unclutch her bra behind her as he sucked on her neck.

“Fuck Liam...Keep going.”

He growled, nipping her collarbone and working his way down, trying to get rid of her shirt. She instinctively spread her legs, hitching her thigh over his hip and tangling her hands in his hair.

“Títi!”

Both of them jumped and quickly covered up and away from each other as Polly burst into the tent.

Liam quickly shoved Jessica's bra under him and Jessica adjusted her shirt.

“Polly!” Drake yelled out as he snatched her back to her own tent.

Jessica and Liam glanced at each other before laughing.

Liam smiled and said, “God, that was close.”

“Too close.”

“Okay, so let’s put this on pause then.”

Liam nodded and cuddled up to her, and Jessica eased into his arms.

The next day…

Jessica smiled as Liam was breaking apart their tent as Polly played with a chance nearby. He felt her eyes on him and he looked up and she gave him a warm smile and he thought, ' I love you. I waited forever for someone like you to walk into my life and I can’t believe this is happening now.'

Drake walked over and handed Jessica coffee he just brewed from the morning Campfire.

“I like him. I like him a lot but I think he is hiding something from you.”

“What makes you think that?”

“I heard him on the phone at 3 am. He was pissed the fuck off at his brother who ran off to take a cruise in Greece. Liam reminded him about his responsibility to the family the call dropped and he seemed shaken. Why is it Liam's problem if his brother doesn't get married.”

Mom hi help

My roommate's ex is asking to see her but she is in Ohio with her brother she will be home in 2 and half weeks and he has shown up for the past 4 days

He is respectful. He leaves as soon as I tell him to. I don't feel comfortable telling him where she is i just keep telling him that she is out. I find it odd that he is coming every day to see her.

What do I do Thanks for the advice

-may

Hi!!

Ok that's weird that he keeps coming over every day. I mean it's good that he leaves but also strange that he continously shows up.

So if you don't feel afraid of him, I'd simply tell him that she will co tact him if she wants to speak with him. I'd let her know via text that he has been showing up incase she knows something you don't. The other option is to avoid answering the door if possible. If anything escalates, call the police immediately and lock the door!

Stay safe! Xoxoxo

not sure if this is what you had in mind but i was thinking maybe kdj and hsy meeting briefly earlier in life (at 20/22 years old or sth)? maybe having a misunderstanding or an argument over something trivial (like interpretation of a book or who should take the last lemon flavored popsicle in the store) and somehow still managing to reach some recognition or understanding of each other. years later they would forget about each other but still remember that bizarre situation sometimes. i have no idea if that makes any sense but i believe in your writing and massive brain and powerful swag. xoxo

Aaaaah, Exe I'm sorry if this isn't exactly what you asked for... I was just like... what if that time Han Sooyoung and Kim Dokja almost met in the epilogue went a little differently and like... haha...

The first part is basically copied and pasted from that chapter before the twist, so go read that first if you haven't!

Han Su-Yeong staggered and walked closer to Kim Dok-Ja. Several passersby brushing past her looked back in suspicion.

Kim Dok-Ja was now walking down the subway’s steps.

Kim Dok-Ja, with earphones stuck in his ears and reading something on his phone while walking downstairs.

She knew what he was currently reading.

“—!!”

She barely managed to shout, but her voice still didn’t come out. So, she desperately chased after him.

Because of the story you wrote, author-nim, I was able to survive until now. Han Su-Yeong was also able to survive while reading the sole reader’s words.

She managed to write the next part of Yu Jung-Hyeok’s life through them.

She was able to endure her boring and stuffy teen years, the days she never wanted to go back to, thanks to those words.

This train is bound for… She spotted Kim Dok-Ja standing on the platform, waiting for the next train to arrive. A person hiding within the small world crafted out of letters to protect himself was standing right there.

Kim Dok-Ja, who didn’t know anything about the apocalypse about to happen.

Kim Dok-Ja, who’d get to live on the expansive world of the ‘Ways of Survival’.

Kim Dok-Ja, who’d get to meet the protagonist he so longed to become.

Kim Dok-Ja, who’d become the ‘Demon King of Salvation’.

Kim Dok-Ja, who’d sacrifice himself multiple times for the sake of his companions, and as a result, came to the 1863rd turn and met her.

Kim Dok-Ja, who was destined to become the ‘Most Ancient Dream’, the price he paid for loving a certain story too much.

[Your mental state is crumbling!]

[The main body’s ego is regaining its control.]

[Your Fable is being extinguished.]

Her legs grew heavy, and her arms didn’t want to move anymore. Her body was gradually becoming not hers.

Even then, Han Su-Yeong wanted to tell him.

⸢To tell him that he was definitely not at fault for this story being born. And to tell him that the things he was about to experience were not his sins.⸥

Because, her past 13 years existed solely to say those words to him.

⸢To say that, though you have grown up while reading this story, there’s no need for you to become it.⸥

She barely managed to muster up her strength, her arm coiling in on itself and preparing for her one last willful action.

[Your ego will convert into the ‘subconsciousness’.]

As she set her weak, pre-scenario body into that final decisive movement...

The twenty six year old Han Su-yeong who knew nothing of the soon to come apocalypse, woke up thrusting her fist forward into the face of some guy on the subway.

She would've thought she was still dreaming, if it hadn't been for the feeling of his soft cheek slamming against the hard bone of his teeth under the force of her balled up hand.

'What the hell? Why am I doing this?'

Han Su-yeong most likely would have asked herself these things if she had any more time to think before her punch had landed.

She got her answer, though. Despite never asking her question, that reason she was looking for became clear as the man staggered off his balance.

He made a futile attempt to right himself before being knocked to the ground. The phone that he had been holding so close to his face clattering screen-side up onto the concrete of the subway floor.

That was when she saw it.

She only had to read a snippet of the words on that phone screen to come up with an explanation for her own actions at that very moment.

[There are three ways to survive in a ruined world. Now, I have forgotten a few, but one thing is certain. The fact that you who are reading this now will survive.

-Three ways to survive in a ruined world

Author’s words: Thank you so much for reading ‘Ways of Survival’ up to here. I will come back to you with an epilogue!]

'Ways of Survival.' 'Three ways to survive in a ruined world.'

...

Yes, there was no doubt that this guy sat on the subway floor rubbing at his cheek deserved it.

Some latent evil of the world must be working to Han Su-yeong's advantage, because none of the commuter passing by spared her a second glance as she sorted out her own motives. They simply dodged around her and the man she had assaulted moments ago.

If Han Su-yeong had to write some train of thought into their actions, she might imagine these negligent bystanders saw something like an overly dramatic lover's spat. Something personal that they ought not get involved in.

Were it not for the pervasiveness of such a cliche recurrent in physical altercations between men and women, maybe they would see it for what it was. A question of honor between authors.

Because Han Su-yeong was certain that was who this man was. An author who was so shitty that he had created an alt to try and hype up his terrible novel.

That was right... It was years ago now, but Han Su-yeong remembered that unsubstantiated accusation of plagiarism on her first published webnovel, SSSSS-grade Infinite Regressor.

This shitty guy had made an alt account that was so obvious... it was something 'Dok-ja,' like he wasn't even trying to pretend he didn't make it just to pretend to 'read' his own webnovel...

If that didn't prove it, then it was also clear from the comments that he had left on every single chapter. When she was reading them, Han Su-yeong had known that if she were such a bad author that she would have to have just one reader, the words that he wrote represented that perfect amount of reader to author engagement that she would have desired.

But that sort of relationship... it was unrealistic. Han Su-yeong had been an author for something like 13 years now, and she had never had such a relationship in her entire career.

So it was obvious that a reader like that could only be written by an author with those same desires that she held.

And then he even had the nerve to wander out of his self contained fantasy, accusing her superior work of plagiarizing his shitty one just to draw in more views and commenters.

So of course he had a lot of nerve to be rereading his own damn author's note right where she could see hi-

"Can I help you?"

Han Su-yeong felt all of the hot air she had been blowing herself up with to justify her current situation deflate upon hearing that voice of his.

The man she'd injured looked up at her with hollow black eyes. Eyes that perhaps had only seemed bright while being illuminated by a screen.

His voice was mild, too. As if getting punched in the face were something that was merely tiresome to him, instead of something to stir anger or indignity. The reactions that Han Su-yeong had been mentally preparing herself to butt heads with.

Nothing about his reaction seemed to ask Han Su-yeong for her motives. There was no race to find an explanation behind those hollow eyes. No bit lip, straining to come up with a turn of phrase to become an appropriately biting retort.

This guy wasn't an author.

...

Hey...

Why had she punched this guy again?

"Sorry." Han Su-yeong found herself saying, as her body deflated, extended arm going back to her side. "From the behind, you looked like my shitty ex."

She let herself fall into the cliche.

"Ah. I see."

Han Su-yeong hated the guy's expression, just then.

It was one that said, 'Well isn't that just my luck?'

But she couldn't help but watch, as this unlucky guy stood up and picked up his phone, brushing it off instead of himself, as if it were more precious to him than his own body.

And when that Dok-ja turned around, Han Su-yeong only saw his back for a second, before the sight of him was once more swallowed up by the uncaring world of the subway station crowd.

#exe i know you're kind of lowkey evil and didn't read the epilogue all the way through and its ok i love you but im coercing you now ok <3 #Parts that are from the original are in italics they're from 535 #orv spoilers #also i know i usually do the names from the Rainbow Turtle translation but I decided to style match for this one #not beta'd #writing #ficlet #han sooyoung #han suyeong #kim dokja #hsy #kdj #orv #omniscient reader #also xoxoxo exe

can i get a director's cut about no regrets coyote xoxoxo

for u bestie? anything. even a longass ramble

literally when i read this series back i'm like wow did someone tell you to write Voicy Fic did someone tell you to enhance the Voice jkhajkkgd

as is my dangerous new tendency i wrote this out of order (every time i admit this im like fuck someone's going to read this and go oh yeah that really tracks kdfhgjkd) so the cokeworth stuff came in pretty late — but one thing i was super excited about with this instalment was opening up the world of the story.

not just in a geographical sense, though that does happen, but in every possible way, i wanted the reality of life tee em to seep in here. like, there's no whirlwind romance (...yet), there are logistics, there's a good deal of guilt like when lily lies to alice. is it REALLY no regrets coyote?? and my favourite avenue to open up was lily's personal life. we already know a little about her ex (and, you'll be so pleased to hear, we will know even more) but i knew digging into her backstory would be so fun and hopefully a little surprising too. maybe it's the nature of this AU or just all jameses, but it's easier for the reader to extrapolate what his life was like pre the start of wtrf than it is for lily (at least, that was the hope).

i wanted her life to be a little less glamorous, HA, partly because we have to believe she'd take the puddlemere job despite very little interest in it (at first). but there's lots of degrees to that. i don't fancy having her wallow in misery for the sake of it, and moreover what i love exploring through these characters isn't, like, backbreakingly sad circumstance but everyday frustration. how pitifully mundane to have parents whose expectations for you are well-meaning but a hefty burden; how ordinary for your squabbles with your sister poke at your insecurities far too often. as much as the reality of lily's childhood was different from (presumed) canon because of this AU, it's also...kind of not. which was so so fun, trying to figure out how growing up around magic with everyone knowing what magic is might still make her feel like an outsider in her home — like she's both a weirdo and someone on a pedestal, and she wants to be neither but but could never just shuck the expectations entirely. (it takes no fine-toothed comb to pick out this element in all my lilys and if you think this is some personal unpacking going on, please refer me to a therapist or don't bring it up at all x)

i feel like this series has thus far been Very James (which is natural because of the setting/premise and also because he has chronic wont shut up disease, and also because i weirdly wrote more from his pov i think which is new for me even tho hes my self insert) and wanted to start to balance that out a little. so keep an eye out for the ways in which canon intersects with lily's life!!!! (i'm dropping hints that sn*pe might come up possibly maybe)

oh that was a fucking digression ok

sidenote everyone knows this is my fundamental thesis of jily: thee partners against the dursleys KJHJKHAJAK

Not only do they bring out the worst in each other, they never play fair. It’s hardly manageable to argue with them when there’s only one of me.

anyway, despite this all being written out of order i wound up pretty happy with the reason why lily kind of loses her head about james the week following her visit to cokeworth. bless her, she's going thru it

oooh so the conversation about the rules tee em (by doja cat dot mp3) was the note on which i started drafting. i know some people were like wow are they really going to talk about it and i deliberated having them put it off for longer, but then i was like no i'm too impatient for that — and realistically speaking, they're at least both responsible enough to know they need to hash it out. (james! responsible!)

and it was v important to me that the conversation was not just a vehicle for james being overwhelmingly james and lily being like well what am i getting into here.......... but also frank and not without its hitches. like, if i had to point to a part of this conversation i think is the most important, it would be right at the start when james is being teasing and lily's like, uh, no, stop that, this is my job. i mean, it's realistic for who she is (and truthfully she hasn't known him long enough to not snap back in that moment) but i as a Person am keenly aware of the power difference between them in terms of leverage with the team, and i think to have them pretend not to realise it would be dishonest.

so much of my favourite parts of james's canon arc have to do with reckoning with privilege, and while not every story has to be That Heavy a necessary angle of the cultural and socioeconomic difference between them (which as i said somewhere else, i actually really like preserving because of the rich, fertile conflict — and opportunity for growth — it affords) is like. unease. i don't think fanfiction has to entirely shy away from big subjects. like, there's certainly a place for Pure Just Smut (which i've written myself hahaha) but i didn't want this to be that (what would all that worldbuilding be for!!!!) and LIFE is uneasy, and life is out here imitating art!!!

and so i wanted to use this opportunity to like. through this device of the team/having to keep things secret reflect back some facets of their personalities both to the reader and to each other. for james that's what he does with power. he's grown up in a way that means he's basically always had it, only he's rarely lorded it over people when not an actual stupid child, and the very humbling experience of having his longest dream stall at age 18 means he's even less likely to do so. this is something lily has to see from him, if she is to trust him.

for lily it's what she does with risk. she's a careful person, she likes plans and control, and when we see her at the start of the story shes basically had both those things chucked out the window. (in short she's at the same point in her arc that james was at when he was 18/post the injury — he's out of the tunnel and she's just in it) it's important for james not just to see that she's not put-together and cold and way, way above him, but also to see when and where she's reckless, and with what. it's like a roundabout way of realising what matters to her (so she'll be careful with it), but also of seeing when she says fuck it because something matters to her too much.

basically for something that is "Not A Relationship" this thing is SOOOOO a test drive for a relationship akjhsjkhjsfgk

another quick point: i was glad to be able to subvert the no-feelings trope, mostly because i didnt think there was anything new i could add to it. (like, they're like no feelings, and then someone catches feelings, duh of course obv [disregard that i just wrote this in something else plz]) there are other rules i am much more excited for them to break >:) im also aware that the like. romantic/sexual/dating politics here are mayyybe suspect for the 70s i think (though i tried not to let too much 21st century thinking seep into me, i have on my to-do to read the ethical slut fOR FANFICTION literally i am a joke) but i hope u guys will forgive me for that xx

oh! ted lasso viewers will also probably have guessed that singer cancelling on charity gala was totally 100% stolen from season 1. it's elton john here just because hes a cool guy <3 and my favourite thing was having literally everyone call him "elton" like theyre all best fucking buds with him, it is HYSTERICAL to me when people do that to celebrities in like a professional capacity.

[obligatory pause in my skim of my own fic to say wow i love sports]

also i caCKLED when i managed to squeeze in that james isn't in the calendar. who out here wa slike wow lilys gonna see his sports illustrated body issue pinup calendar photoshoot lets go only to be suckered by ME

is his non-participation a symptom of the fact that he is not at 100% confidence and yes it is

also i'll own that this, while it's no tripping was for other people, is my single favourite brief instance of my own james characterisation

"...you could live somewhere beautiful and expensive.” I know my answer, but it takes a moment to figure out how to start it. “My cousin, she can’t sit still. This place is just so her parents know what address she comes back to occasionally. I’ve never been like that. All that time in Italy, I—” Wanted to come home, I think but do not say. It’s true; I was so homesick I thought I’d physically be sick because of it sometimes. The worst thing was how much it hurt to be back in England in the offseason. Even seeing a Quidditch advert soured my stomach, like spotting an ex who’d moved on too quick. But I didn’t just want to return home, I wanted to be welcomed back. I wanted my resentment gone. “I couldn’t have gone anywhere else,” I finish lamely. She props her chin in one hand. Her gaze is still fixed on me, curious but not probing. “Plenty of places would’ve gladly had you.” I concede this with a nod, but— “I couldn’t.”

I WANTED MY RESENTMENT GONE!!! I DID SOMETHING WITH THAT AND I WILL NOT BE QUIET ABOUT IT!!!!

ahem

hmm ok and then smut happens

more about lily's workplace experiences later, but i also wanted to emphasise not just how cool tee em alice is, but also how important it is for lily to have her approval and respect. lily of course admires the shit out of alice for her composure and her drive, and learning she was a scholarship kid at a fancy magical school sort of reduces the distance between them — she's like, oh, maybe i could be like her!! that's why alice's apology means quite a bit earlier in this chapter even if it's over something fairly minor, and that's why lily feels so bad about lying to her. she's aware of how big it is to have an older female mentor figure (blah blah blah suze ok u denizen of corporate america) at work and she doesn't want to fuck it up...but she's kind of already fucked it up and only digging herself in deeper. Yes there will be consequences

and another thing i like about the episodic bursts of these chapters is that i get to end on WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT bits all the time and don't feel too terrible about it!

i think i've exhausted everything i had to say and it's definitely more than u were expecting xoxo ly

hiii hii! i am absolutely obsessed with every single thing you write, it is the only thing getting me through succession ending.

would it be ok to request a ship &/or ship aesthetic?

i am a cis girl & would prefer one of the men for a ship please.

i have long ginger/strawberry blonde straight hair (slightly lighter than shivys).

i am extremely pale but like to fake tan (i get burnt within like five minutes of being in the sun), though i don't like it to dark, i just like to look a little bit sun kissed.

i have green round eyes with thickish eyebrows & a roundish face with some light freckles.

i’m 5’9, always have acrylic nails in an almond shape (currently they are black).

i wear gold jewellery & have three lobe ear piercings each side with a rook & conch piercing on my left & helix on my right side.

i am very introverted (i could go days without interacting with anyone but my cat) but when around people i can be very very chatty.

i love to read (though i have been slacking majorly recently) & my favourite book is ‘my year of rest & relaxation’ (super basic i apologise).

i love going for walks & i do yoga & pilates.

i used to dance & am an ex-theatre kid.

i like visiting art galleries & museums & things like that.

i really playing soduku (not sure why).

my favourite films are coraline & heathers.

my favourite colour is pink!

lana del rey is my favourite musician (again very basic i apologise) but i also listen to a lot of mazzy star, arctic monkeys, mitski, radiohead & deftones.

i am currently in my last year of school (i am eighteen but pls don’t take that into account when shipping me) & my favourite subject is philosophy.

i hope to go into business in the future & eventually work in fashion which has always been a huge interest of mine (maybe like marketing or pr but i am not 100% sure yet).

i currently live in australia but hope to move to a city such as london or nyc.

i love thrift & vintage shopping.

my personal aesthetic kind of ranges depending on my mood for the day tbh but i do quite basic makeup & focus on my outfit but i do love mini dresses & skirts with a big jacket at the moment, & usually wear it with dr martens or knee high black boots.

i hope this is ok (i got a tad carried away when writing because im procrastinating my assingnment lol).

thank you so so so much x

i am in love with your account <3

Artsy Love x Lukas Matsson

The Corrupted Star / Story / TikTok

Kaname: Alright by now we all probably figured out LockHart was the one who corrupted Dorky and and turned him into a villain to create more negativity, heres how it happened.

LockHart was backstage smiling up at his friend holding his V.I.P badge. "Hey Dorky..?"

CattyBeat shushed LockHart before looking around "shh..! Eheheh don't say my name out loud here, heh what's up?"

LockHart smiled "I hope you do great out there today, I'm happy you took my suggestion to sing what's really deep from your soul, my nightmare creatures deserve some fun in the spot light, oh one more thing, can you turn around for me?"

CattyBeat tilts his skull curiously and turns around LockHart leaps up kissing the back of his skull making him blush, before CattyBeat could respond his name is called to stage and he runs off.

Once CattyBeat was on stage LockHart smirked knowing he infected Dorky during the exchange. "And now the pieces are put into place, I can't wait to see you turn into a void of hate." He giggled.

On stage CattyBeat played with Ivy as his Bass Player, Thunder as his Guitar Player, and Prim as his Drummer.

The entire concert the crowd was shocked at his sudden change in music style and taste, why wasn't he dancing?

Also for those who don't know he's singing about his ex who rejected his feelings.

By the end of the song the crowd was too stunned by the sadness, swearing on stage for the first time, and aggression from his music.

Not only that but his music had spread negativity, but why? Nether the less the crowd eventually cheered.

Meanwhile Ivy, Prim, and Thunder grinned knowing they accomplished their mission when they noticed the black star on the back of CattyBeat's head grow.

Later

Melody!Tale's ( Mettaton and Napstablook) Ike and Ivo where struggling trapped inside Prim's web.

Ivy shushes them "sh-shh w-well be out of y-your hair soon, we're very s-sorry." She muttered and held her arm before holding her tail, her ears tilt back blushing. "Master was right that was fun, I never felt so energized before."

Thunder was too busy looking over a cook book "Do you think master will get us some au food too? Hehe, I don't feel weak anymore either after that concert." His tentacles swished about happily.

Thunder belongs to @rem-void @saidebanks

Ivy belongs to @unik-world @unikenigma

Prim belongs to @the-shadow-lair

Prim shushed them both "Shush fools, we're almost finished I need to play robot for a minute, fufufu~"

The last thing LockHart ordered them to do was send Dorky a text through their managers phone, the text read.

"Dear Dorky, forgive us but the crowd did not enjoy the..'sudden change', take a few weeks off of work till you feel better xoxoxo - Ike and Ivo

P.S we're going on vacation for a bit no need to come see us, we'll text you!"

She sent the message, Dorky's phone buzzed and he took out his phone while sitting on his bed and frowned at the screen "..what? But..I thought the crowd like it, I guess not.."

The fear hit him "wait..how am I supposed to get love energy without my concerts....I-I'm sure it'll be only for a few days..what could g-go wrong?"

I felt called to do this today-- and just generally to shout about how in awe I am of the talent in this fandom!

Tagging all those I tagged here, if you feel like it! And anyone else who wants to share the love! xoxoxo

I limited myself to only one-shots posted in the last few months and still got a little out of control. So, here are just a few of the MANY fics that have blessed my AO3 history lately!

call it even by @effing-numpties (T, 846 words)

“And the road not taken looks real good now And it always leads to you and my hometown” -'tis the damn season, taylor swift

Baz returns home for the holidays and runs into his ex-roommate/almost boyfriend in a pub.

BEST TAG: baz being really dramatic send tweet

MY THOTS: it’s no secret i am a slut for carry on x taylor swift content (and calli keeps gracing us with that!!!), but even apart from that, this is an achingly beautiful fic. The dynamic of seeing each other after years apart and never knowing what could have been is expressed so wonderfully. It’s a hell of an emotional journey in < 1000 words, and I can’t wait for the rest of these evermore fics!!

I have the power of magic and Vine compilations on my side by @vampire-named-gampire (T, 5240 words)

“What’s going on?” I whisper to Penny, who’s gaping at Miss Possibelf, her expression part excited, part horrified. “Listen,” she says, rolling her eyes. (She’s scarily like Baz sometimes. Or Baz is scarily like her.) “That includes memes, Vines, Tik-Toks and whatever else you could think of,” Miss Possibelf says. My mouth falls open as I realize what’s going on. “Are we… are we doing Internet spells?”

BEST TAG: the mage gets owned

MY THOTS: if you somehow missed this gem during COC, please do yourself a favor and RUN to AO3 right now. It’s hilarious and sweet and we truly love to see established relationship moments at Watford! Brought us iconic spells like “Move I’m Gay” which is canon to me now.

left on read by @sncwbaz (G, 1671 words)

Baz stared at the texts long enough that his screen almost turned to black again. He was about to close out of the app when a tiny speech bubble with moving dots appeared at the bottom of the chat. It took him a moment and a held breath to figure out what this meant. Simon was typing.

Baz can't sleep and decides that reading through past text conversations he's had with Simon is a good way to spend the very early ours of the morning. Things get interesting when he suddenly sees that Simon is typing something. At 3am.

BEST TAG: low key angst

MY THOTS: a quietly heartbreaking but also hopeful look at simon + baz’s relationship as they struggle to connect sometime pre-WS. They’re tender and hesitant and awkward, and it’s all beautifully written. read this!

NSFW recs under the cut:

Been In Between by @snowybank (E, 1586 words)

“Ready for another?”

Baz splutters. “Absolutely not. I do have a refractory period, Simon.”

Simon and Baz are soft (and hard) and they test some limits.

BEST TAG: just a fuckin SPRINKLE of praise kink and monsterfucking

MY THOTS: Yall. I don’t even know what to say except if you are a human with a pulse you need to read this fic. Lauren is a fucking ICON at writing smut with so many feelings, and this was an absolute masterpiece. The best part of it is ... kind of a spoiler???? At least it took me by surprise and positively melted my heart. So read it and be melted yourself.

Hot in Here by @otherworldsivelivedin (M, 2599 words)

Simon Snow can’t dance. At least, that’s what I thought. This fic is pure self-indulgence over the fact that 90s/00s R&B is The Best genre to go dancing to 👌 and my all time favourite HC that Simon can't ballroom dance, but that boy got moves and I will die on this hill.

BEST TAG: A love letter to 90s/00s R&B

MY THOTS: i cry when i think about how much I love this fic. Dem spun the most masterful world in a small space, and it’s just so FUN????? it’s HILARIOUS??? and I just love to see these boys enjoying life. truly an instant classic in my mind.

Envy of the Gods by @motherscarf (E, 8526 words, see warnings)

“You are a naiad?” The nymph rolled their eyes. “You are a cow? Or a man. Both?” Their tone was sarcastic. Simon didn’t notice. “I am a man,” Simon frowned. He hadn’t tucked his tail very well- it twitched free as if it wanted to argue with his statement. Simon pretended he didn’t notice. “You don’t… seem like a nymph.” “And what, pray tell, does a nymph seem like?” Sneered the nymph.

Or, Orpheus & Eurydice au, but Simon is a minotaur and Baz is a naiad

BEST TAG: cancel Apollo 2020

MY THOTS: okay, I admittedly was not a Greek Mythology Gay (tm) and i am woefully lacking in said knowledge, but that did absolutely nothing to lessen my enjoyment of this beautiful and heart-wrenching fic. Also, I’ve since been working my way through percy jackson books for the first time (lol) and this fic has been oft on my mind. The prose is immaculate, and the emotions are soft, and just everything is too too lovely and bittersweet!!!! GAH.

Adams Driver is Well Fit by @sharing-a-room-with-an-open-fire (E, 709 words)

Set Watford 8th year. Simon and Penny watch Star Wars at the cinema. Is Simon really thirsting after Adam Driver - a certified sex god? Or could it be someone else?

BEST TAG: The author isn't into Adam Driver but can sure appreciate good aesthetics

MY THOTS: i am incredibly self-indulgent in reccing this because Di very kindly wrote it for me BUT everyone else should read it too because it is: (1) hilarious, (2) sweet, and (3) truly demonstrates the lengths of simon’s lack of self-awareness. and we love that for him. also in my mind, everyone in CO/WS is a star wars nerd.

#stole 'thots' from lauren #hehehehe #Thirsty Thursday #fic recs #i love all yall
