nct 127’s relation to lian

TAEIL + LIAN: IL-LI

taeil used to wake her up for school when she was still a teenager :((

such a soft but overlooked duo

will appreciate each other forever and ever

lian teaches him roasts in english that he can say to johnny

remain each other’s hype man and woman

taeil was the first to suggest he and the other nct members react to the trailers of her dramas on video so they can boost them in popularity

promotes the HELL out of lian’s solo career over twitter

lian loves coming up behind him and just giving him hugs because he’s soft (ᗒᗣᗕ)՞

they watch movies together a lot! but taeil has to come down to the fifth floor because lian hates it up on the tenth one

he was once able to grab her hand in an airport and they held hands the entire time :(( a few pictures went a little viral

they share hoodies NSHDHSHCJA

lian keeps bugging him to get an instagram

taeil will ALWAYS take her side in silly arguments she and the other members have sometimes

he makes fun of her height because she’s shorter than him-

he also used to help her with her homework :(

cried when lian went on her first date

“my child is growing up (´∩｀。)”

had to do a background check on the guy before he even allowed him to come in contact with her again, though

JOHNNY + LIAN: JOANN

johnny is her dad, period

no questions asked he is her father

will give her piggyback rides all the time

he was once woken up by her jumping on his bed and asking if they could go shopping

at 6:00 am

he actually got up, got ready and took her shopping but since it was so early, the stores were all closed

he took her out for japanese fluffy pancakes, though!

whenever lian is sick, johnny makes her his mom’s homemade chicken noodle soup recipe :((

speaking of johnny’s mom, she loves lian to death and always asks johnny if he’s taking good care of her

if they’re not being asked any questions or having to translate anything during interviews, they always whisper jokes in each other’s ears to try and make the other one laugh

because of how lian dies during the trailer of her new drama, johnny cried in front of twenty-two other men while they reacted to it

he was NOT embarrassed

“how are you guys not crying? this is so sad. what a cruel world we live in ໒( ˵ •̀ □ •́ ˵ )७”

kept screaming at lian’s “dream of you” performance video

“WHY ARE YOU ON THE GROUND DANCING LIKE THAT?!” “JISUNG COVER YOUR EYES-“

he once effortlessly picked up lian and moved her somewhere else because she wasn’t standing where she was supposed to be

everyone says that their ship name is something a white, suburban mom would be named. now nctzens pronounce joann like “joanne” ･x･

it was said on the zach sang show that johnny used to measure her height every month to see if she grows or not, and that’s the only reason why he has her height memorized

TAEYONG + LIAN: LIYONG

has lost lian in so many airports it’s not even funny

“hyung, what happened to lian?” “oh, you have GOT to be kidding me-“

whenever he doesn’t see her he goes into panic mode and starts asking if anyone has seen his little sister

“about this tall with really shiny hair? her cheekbones are insane, i swear. OH OH OH SHE WAS WEARING JOHNNY’S HOODIE- you don’t know what johnny’s hoodie looks like.. okay, well thank you for your help.”

one of the first members that she was comfortable with

lian said that he was her role model :’(

as the leader, he’s always taking care of her and will not sleep until he knows for sure she’s eaten

because of how lian never participated in any of nct’s first bit of promotions due to being too uncomfortable around them, she was allowed to skip out on the viewings of their relay video letters

but she was still required to make one for somebody and that somebody was taeyong ˵ ຈ ︿ ຈ ˵

she said that she was glad he was her leader and that she hoped to become closer one day

he cried

declares that he will take care of lian till the day he dies

taeyong had yelled at lian’s former manager until he voluntarily quit working for her- he had found out that lian was being overworked to the point where she collapsed during their dance practice and he wasn’t okay with it

always cheering her on backstage when she performs solo

he always tries to include her in guiding the members for their dances because he knows how happy it makes her

instead of having her carry her glasses around with her, he does it instead :D

“nana, do you have to wear your glasses now?”

taeyong tucks her into bed every night he can ᕕ( ཀ ʖ̯ ཀ)ᕗ

YUTA + LIAN: YUN

totally doesn’t have feeling for her, yeah

yuta is obsessed and when i tell you he’s obsessed, he’s obsessed

did i mention obsessed?

he’s jealous of everyone :(

yun stans insist that the only reason yuta is so touchy with winwin and mark is because he’s trying to cover up his feelings for lian

bye if that’s true-

hyuck wanted to give her a hug (a rare occurrence) and yuta straight up just said,

“mine. go away”

i have proof guys :// johnny recorded it and literally posted it on instagram

lian died internally when yuta cut his long hair because she couldn’t put it into ponytails anymore :((

but his hair is growing back now so she’s able to do it again :)

yuta teaches her japanese every tuesday and thursday!

we don’t bring this up because it’s pretty embarrassing but,, when nct 127 were backstage before performing kick it, yuta asked doyoung (who was in a direction where he could get a clear view of lian’s face) if lian was staring at him

how do we know this, you may ask?

it was caught on camera and everyone made fun of him for a solid week straight

he’s caught staring at her from afar way too often for comfort

lian says that he’s very pretty

much like the other memebers that have instagram, he makes story countdowns that he posts about a week before lian plans to release her solo music

DOYOUNG + LIAN: LIDO

another member of the lian protection squad

doyoung was the first to start calling her cupcake

it all started when doyoung was sick and lian made him cupcakes to make him feel better

will slap anyone who makes a flirty remark towards lian

was embarrassed for yuta when he asked if she was staring at him

said “no” and walked away

lian is the only one who ever shows him any mercy :’)

they have very similar taste in decor so they often go shopping together for things to put around the dorm

doyoung said that he spends the most time in lian’s room because it smells like vanilla all the time

he spoils her SO MUCH

like so much

half the plushies she owns at the moment were gifts from doyoung

has a tendency to watch over her and make sure she’s content at all times

“cupcake, are you hungry? i can make you some food if you’d like” “oppa, it’s 3:00am-“ “and?”

they take such pretty instagram pictures :((

at one point in time, doyoung was jealous of his older brother because lian used to crush on him a tiny bit :0

not because doyoung likes her or anything, she just couldn’t stop talking about how nice he looked in revolutionary love

disapproves of the staff giving lian such short clothing sometimes

“um, excuse me, she can’t wear that. are you crazy? go get her a new outfit, please”

JAEHYUN + LIAN: JAELI

not many people bring this up because we know it’s honestly a sensitive topic :|

but he lowkey has deep feelings for her (he makes it so obvious sometimes it’s kinda disappointing to see how oblivious lian really is to it)

jaeli + yun love triangle anyways

jokes aside, though, jaehyun loves lian so so much

once cried to johnny about how he doesn’t know what to do and that he didn’t want to make anything awkward by confessing to her

makes sure to be near her as often as possible

once scared away a whole kim taehyung from talking to her during isac ╰[ ⁰﹏⁰ ]╯ (let’s pretend bts were there for 2019 pls)

“jungkook, keep your friend away, please :D”

didn’t work, though, because they ended up having a conversation later in the day either way

*in the 97’ liner groupchat* “HYUNG IM SORRY HE RAN AWAY I DIDNT KNOW WHAT TO DOl

it was uncalled for but what can you do amirite ┐(´～｀)┌

lian pokes his dimples a lot and squishes his cheeks

just randomly hugs him but he’s not complaining

johnny isn’t picking sides but he became team jaeli after jaehyun broke into tears in front of him for the first time since they were trainees about how much he loves lian

sad,, i know

lian judges jaehyun for not sleeping with sheets

continues to believe he is not a human being, but a robot created in a lab

jaehyun smiles at her for no reason

JUNGWOO + LIAN: LIWOO

an instant bond formed between them when they first met!

jungwoo learned a lot about her and has developed so many ways to deal with her anxiety :(

gave the staff a guide on how to keep her calm when he went on hiatus because he couldn’t be there with her

buys her colouring books because he knows that they calm her down well!

liwoo went viral and become a popular ship when lian accidentally changed the nct 127 instagram profile picture to a jungwoo icon

she got scolded but it was iconic orange haired jungwoo with a chain-

an untouchable duo when they do double aegyo

nctzens think jungwoo is her favourite member

maybe because lian said he was

“ “who’s your favourite member?” hmm i’ll have to say woo-oppa!”

*cue jungwoo laughing at yuta’s face because he was that shocked*

they share secrets with each other so now they probably know the other like the palm of their hand

even though he’s off his hiatus, he still has to guide the staff members through lian’s little moments because sm staff suck at their job sometimes

they’re the two members who go grocery shopping together

more like jungwoo dragging lian to the grocery store with him but okay

jungwoo loves kissing her cheeks (〃▽〃)

their vocals mixed together are confirmed to be noises from heaven

lian misses his blonde bowl cut :/

MARK + LIAN: LIMARK

leader of lian’s natural length hair committee

like when i tell you mark hates her extensions-

mark was the first friend lian was able to make in nct!

they bonded over canada and it was very rare to see them speaking in korean

mark goes into straight panic when he’s with her sometimes

has to remind himself they’re like siblings

lian ans mark covered “your eyes” by hoody and jay park during a vlive!

it was adorable :((

lian had him saved in her phone as “android user” but now she doesn’t know what to change it to

they had a fight in 2019

mark let’s her call him the weirdest freaking nicknames ヽ ( ꒪д꒪ )ﾉ

mars bar, markie, mork, marko

AND IN RETURN HE CALLS HER MARIJUANA-

he says it’s because czennies consider her to be addicting and since marijuana is addicting as well he thought it’d be a good fit

someone on twitter absolutely ENDED HIM though and wouldn’t stop making fun of him (；⌣̀_⌣́)

they can read each other’s mind just by looking at each other

“dude i hate this shit why does she keep asking us who we wanna collab with?” *cue lian laughing hysterically*

“what’s so funny (゜-゜)” — interviewer

HAECHAN + LIAN: LIHYUCK

haechan makes fun of her kissing scenes in dramas

calls her short all the time

“lian give me a high five- oh haha nevermind it’s too bad you’re so short”

they’ve actually been so close to fighting each other and i’m not even joking

they’re the two members who fight the most out of all of them

but despite this, they love each other very much

hyuck says he’s the only one who’s allowed to make her mad

and if anyone else makes her mad he’d kill them

limark 2019 fight flashbacks where haechan kept threatening mark

there are actually moments when they’re clingy with each other-

haechan loves her hugs :((

like ??????? one minute they’re at each other’s throats and the next, they’re all lovey dovey hugging each other make it make sense ?????

lian could be speaking english and he’d say, “korean, please. i can’t understand canadian”

“shut up <3”

hello haechan cried and wouldn’t let go of her during her and mark’s graduation ceremony in 2018

she makes fun of him for it but never takes it too far

he goes to her for dance advice

during their nct 2018 weekly idol appearance when they were doing the random kpop dance thing, they beat everyone أ‿أ

So I adore your art, especially your various Bree ships - thank you for sharing them!♡ That said, would you tell us more about Sebreestian in the AU where Bree travels to Starkhaven as the Inquisition's delegate? I'm particularly curious about how Bree and Sebastian go about their different takes on mages, and how Bree would deal with Seb's "Anders destroyed Kirkwall's chantry so I'll destroy Kirkwall" plan. Also, how would their relationship develop overall? :>

As per usual, my thoughts ran far, far too long so I put them below a read-more.

Ok! My thoughts are a bit of a mess, but dagnabbit if they’re not thorough.

PERSPECTIVES ON MAGES

Depending on your DA2 playthrough, Sebastian believes A) mages are deserving of redemption, B) the Templar Order has overstepped its bounds, and C) Maleficarum are a real threat that needs to be stopped. In my playthrough, my Hawke refused to kill Anders, so Sebastian just swore to raze all of Kirkwall in his hunt to find and slay the abomination and didn’t really expound much on his opinions of mages in general. Because of this, I’ve gone forward with the opinion that Sebastian has within himself still the capacity to believe D) All of the Above since I don’t view these opinions to necessarily be mutually exclusive (e.g., you can think the Templars are tyrannical while still agreeing that all Maleficarum need to be slain, that sort of thing).

I’ve discussed in this old post how Sebastian and Bree have similar attitudes and behaviours. I think Bree would be able to speak in defence of mages using language that appeals to Sebastian’s sense of his ideal self and his ideal world. She would, in short, be appealing to his sensibility in the most arcane Edwardian sense of the word.

Since Bree was essentially deployed to be a diplomat in this mission, I think she would have to maintain a very delicate balance of allowing Sebastian to feel that he is rightfully aggrieved while enabling him to come to the conclusion that while this may be so, his reaction to his grievance is inefficient to his ultimate aims (aims which Bree, as an old friend of Anders, hopes are never realised).

Which leads to your next question…

PERSPECTIVES ON ANDERS

This is where I let my penchant for melodrama just run away with me. If you’ll let me indulge:

Bree would enter into the mission vowing to be a consummate professional. She will behave as befits an Amell (noble blood and all that) and as befits the Hero of Ferelden and as befits an ambassador of the Inquisition–all this she swears before Josie, who will hold her accountable or at the very least make her do her own taxes if she does not.

This means that she would not divulge upon meeting Sebastian that she was the equivalent of schoolmates with Anders. I want Sebastian to find that out: ‘You were in Kinloch Hold together.’

She would accede that point, but I don’t want it to stop there. I want Sebastian to reveal she was tantamount to an accomplice: ‘You reportedly were quite chummy with him along with another maleficarum… one Jowan…?’

I think it would be difficult for Bree to maintain her image of a ‘consummate professional’ as well as argue for her ability to be impartial in these negotiations and delicate circumstances. Because is this not a reflection of the Inquisition’s true agenda if the Inquisition decides to send the relative of the very Amell descendant who spared Anders and who herself happens to be a dear old friend of the very abomination he seeks to hunt? O the scandal of it all!

This would prompt some desperate politicking from Bree. Sure! She was friends with Anders when she was a wee slip of a girl. Who wouldn’t be? She says. With his quick wit, she says, and his charming smile, she adds, and his hair the colour of wheat in Harvestmere, she sighs, and his eyes like the warmth of sunlight through autumnal leaves… BUT, she protests, that was ever so long ago. She has no knowledge of Anders beyond his escape from the Tower. So while she remembers fondly the dear boy she knew, she cannot in good conscious condone the acts of the man she does not.

Melodrama aside, Bree would have the agenda of trying to convince the prince that razing an entire city is not an effective method of maleficarum-control nor does it particularly woo the denizens of the city (who, surely, would be otherwise ‘on his side’) to help him find the maleficarum at the root of all this mess.

RELATIONSHIP DEVELOPMENT

The development of their relationship is a sticky wicket.

In brief, I first want them to be pleasantly surprised by the other. Bree walks in expecting some megalomaniacal tyrant hell-bent on persecution, and finds a pious, genteel, dutiful, albeit determined prince. (And quite the looker, to boot!) I’ve talked about Sebastian’s expectations in this post, but I’ll quote it here for good measure:

When Sebastian hears that one of Hawke’s relatives is arriving alongside the Inquisition’s emissaries, he expects someone akin to the man he knew: brash, bawdy, boisterous. Instead, he gets Bree. Bree and Bodran do share a lot in common: they are both stubborn as all hell, histrionic, vain, proud, and domineering. But their differences are starker than their similarities: where Bodran was selfish, she is selfless. Where he was amoral and irreligious, she is righteous and zealous. Where he was apathetic, she is empathetic. So on and so forth.

So I want the onset of diplomatic relations to go better than anticipated because both parties are caught off-guard by the appearance and overall mannerisms of the other.

Then I want the Anders kerfuffle I described above (which I’m now titling the Background Check Debacle in my mind) because I can’t help myself and I have no self-control and I like when characters argue and push back with Bree.

The Anders kerfuffle could lead to some serious discussion on 1) where Sebastian may or may not stand re: mages that aren’t maleficarum or abominations AKA Bree, 2) how a large-scale invasion helps this beautiful Adonis invading prince in his primary aim, and 3) what he plans on doing with Anders in the theoretical totally hypothetical situation that he manages to catch the man. This may lead to broader, more philosophical discussions about Andraste, the Maker, mercy and all that good good stuff because these are two characters who are emotionally and intellectually invested in the religion of which they both are zealous members.

In this Total Crackship Crackpot Crockpot AU, these discussions (or self-righteous arguments, whichever suits your fancy) with Bree may recall to Sebastian the person he was trying to be during the core of DA2. Dutiful and pious, of course, but also gentle, forgiving, nurturing, compassionate… qualities that he might have lost sight of in his passion to recapture Anders. What better way to reinvigorate those high aspirations then by practising what he preaches with a certain someone who may have omitted some particular details of her history and who is in fact a member of a group of people he has unconsciously come to see as made up entirely of Anderses.
