I'm not even upset that people don't like Billy, that's your opinion. You don't have to like him. I can be civil about it if you can too, it's people who sit here and try to say Billy deserved everything that happened to him though that tick me off like this. I'm happy to go about my day and block these people without antagonizing them and leaving them to their shitty little corner of the website, but anything with Karen is crossing a line for me. It makes me sick to my stomach that people actually think like this and it makes me wonder how they'd react to something like this in real life. But I'd be a hypocrite if I said that though wouldn't I since all these hardcore Billy haters have decided that if we like Billy we're automatically racists and abusers when really some of us are just here to have fun and enjoy this piece of the fandom. I'm so glad that when I joined the fandom it was mostly positive and that the people are this overwhelmingly welcoming to newbies because some of this shit would've been a huge turn off for me if it was the first thing I saw and I feel real shitty about it because some newbies won't have that same experience. I'm here because I relate with Billy on a personal level and so are a lot of others and it sucks that people can't muster up the brainpower to pull their heads out of their asses and look past the surface level story of Billy Hargrove's character and understand that Dacre strived for "Show not tell" with his performance. That being said, don't attack these assholes in their inboxes like they do to us, it's only giving them what they want and stoking the flames. Block buttons exist for a reason. Stay safe out there <3

SteveTony - Getting Together
Here are some Getting Together fics that I adore. Don't forget to leave kudos and nice comments in every fic!
Tumblr media
Lovesick, by royal_chandler, 3 k >, fluff.
The depth of the flu aisle in the pharmacy is substantial, overwhelmingly so, and Steve is half-convinced he needs to return to the front and trade his basket for a full-on cart.
There's a Party Going on Right Here, by Annie D (scaramouche), Post-Endgame.
After the Battle of Earth, Tony hosts a party.
Open Tab , by machi_kun , 5k> words, Post-Avengers 2012.
Tony has a lot of money. Really. More money he could possibly ever spend by himself. So what if he spends some of it buying gifts for his friends? People like gifts! And Steve is his friend. His best friend, actually, inside the Avengers, and he’s glad it turned out this way - so it’s also a way of saying 'thanks for putting up with me', he thinks. He just wants Steve to be happy. If Tony can make him happy, then why wouldn’t he? Tony buying Steve gifts is no big deal. Shut up, Rhodey.
(Pretty) Odd, by machi_kun, 5 k> words, Developing Relationship, Fluff.
In his file, Tony Stark had been described as eccentric. He had also been described as a narcissist, as a self-destructive liability, as not-recommended, and all sort of fancy words that are used to disguise the fact that they were calling him an all-around asshole; And that’s a very long list of bad adjectives, for a guy Steve saw carry a nuke behind his back to save the city, gave them a place to stay, and is slowly showing himself to be one of the most curious people Steve has ever met. Maybe Tony Stark is eccentric – and maybe he is a bit of an asshole. But maybe he’s also more than that.
Six Times DUM-E Made It Worse (and One Time He Fixed It) by FestiveFerret, 4 k > words, Outsider POV.
DUM-E has a lot of Very Important jobs to do, and he does his best to do them right. Sometimes, though, things don't work out very well.
All he wants is for his humans to be happy.
Sweet Child O' Mine by starspangledsprocket, 9 k > words, Age Regression/De-Aging, Fluff.
After just their second outing as the Avengers, everyone except for Steve and Tony are turned into toddlers. Madness ensues.
'Cause Everytime We Touch by Perlmutt, 5 k > words, Touch-Starved.
Steve noticed it the first time they were officially introduced at Fury’s office after the battle of New York.
He extended his hand for a handshake, a silent peace offer after their horrible first meeting at the helicarrier almost a week ago. Stark looked at it like it would bite him any second. Steve could see how his hands twitched where he’d buried them in his pockets. But instead of taking his hand, he stared into his eyes for a moment and nodded before turning back to Fury.
Only later would Steve learn that it wasn’t hatred or aversion.
how the thought of you does things to me by Finduilas, 6 k > words, Mutual Pining, Domestic Avengers.
Steve has a thing for Tony's butt. Tony has a thing for Steve's beard. They're both very obvious about it (just ask any of their friends!), but somehow they manage to also be completely oblivious.
Right here waiting by gottalovev, 19 k > words, Cat Dads.
Steve has been missing Tony like crazy since he left the compound. One day, Steve drops in unannounced at the tower, and when on a walk for coffee they rescue newborn kittens.
Or: A yearning Steve, an oblivious Tony, and co-parenting kittens. (= fuff!)
picture perfect (picture us) by starklystar, 18 k > words, Enemies to Friends to Lovers, Photo Shoots.
Tony has a habit of being handsy during photoshoots.
Steve has a habit of being flustered whenever Tony touches him.
Misunderstandings happen.
Or, five times Steve and Tony went to a photoshoot
+ the one time they had better things to do.
++ the one time they take their photoshoot online.
take me out (to the ball game) by muItifandomjess, 1 k > words, Fluff.
“Take me out to the ball game, take me out with the crowd,” Steve sings, his shoulder bumping into Tony’s as he sways back and forth. “Come on, Tony, sing!”
“I am a genius billionaire playboy philanthropist,” Tony protests around a mouthful of hot dog. “I do not sing.”
Or, Steve and Tony go to a ball game. It all kind of snowballs from there.
Drifting Further Everyday by GotTheSilver, 8 k > words, Post-Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
Steve’s quiet a lot of the time, it’s almost like living with a ghost, and Tony kind of hates it; he lives with more than enough actual ghosts every day. The longer time goes on, the more Tony recognises what’s going on, sees the jumpiness, the haunted look on his face, and he gets it. Realises they’re both trying to bury things they don’t want to talk about. More often than not, Tony turns around in the workshop to see Steve sitting there, patiently working on something in his sketchbook or reading an actual book, usually something he missed during the years he was frozen.
Somehow Steve is filling all the gaps in his life Tony didn’t realise he needed filling.
Goop, Or Five Times Steve Rogers Was Covered In... Something, And One Time Tony Was by Bill_Longbow, 7 k > words, Mutual Pining.
There were a lot of things Steve had expected about the future; sleek buildings, sleeker electronics, and all the food you can eat. Being covered in alien goop wasn't one of them.
or
How Steve being covered in... stuff, brings Tony and Steve closer.
The art of longing by itsallAvengers, 63 k > words, Oblivious Tony, Not Actually Unrequited Love.
Steve's used to missing his shot. To being too late, too scared, and losing everything. But he really did think that this time, with Tony, something could work.
Then Tony meets Mark. He's cool and charming, he's a scientist and he's perfect for a man like Tony Stark.
And suddenly Steve...
Well. Steve just doesn't have a place anymore
earth laughs in flowers by starksnack, 3 k > words, Love Confessions, Secret Admirer.
A secret admirer has been sending Tony flowers and confessions of love.
Crash Into You by FestiveFerret, 15 K > words, Post-Avengers (2012), Stranded.
Tony was pretty used to crashing.
It seemed like these days more often than not his return to earth in the Iron Man suit was at least somewhat out of control. He couldn't count the number of times he'd used a helpfully situated building, a local landmark, or, hey, even a teammate to slow a wild descent. And he'd be damned if he'd admit it to Pepper, but on more than one occasion he hadn't even been conscious when he'd hit the ground.
So crashing wasn't really a new experience. He would get banged up a bit, maybe put a scratch in the suit somewhere, but bruised ribs healed and there was no better way to work off the post-battle high than smoothing dents out of his most prized possession.
He had a feeling crashing in the Quinjet, without his armour, was going to be a bit different..
I like me better (when I'm with you) by I_write_things_sometimes, 79 k > words, Domestic Avengers, Friends to Lovers.
If you ask either of them how they got together, they'd go back to an unremarkable night filled with expensive food, rich donors, and lots of schmoozing. And, of course, the anxiety attack that started it all.
"Not recognizing someone was strange enough, but the longer the two men spoke with — or, more accurately at — Tony, the more convinced Steve was that the conversation was unwanted, at least on Tony’s part.
The first clue was that Tony was actively leaning away from the men he was talking to. Steve had learned firsthand that Tony was an incredibly tactile person. When he wanted to talk to you, Tony engaged completely; he’d sling his arm around your shoulders, squeeze your arm, or drag you around as he talked, walked and usually did at least two other things. Even when he argued, Tony was often immediate and in his opponent's space; Steve knew that from experience.
Right now? Tony was scanning the outskirts of the room rather than making eye contact with the men near him. If Steve had to guess, Tony was looking for the nearest exit."
Or, the way Steve Rogers and Tony Stark became friends and then more.
Mission SteveTony by itsallAvengers, 7 k > words, Mutual Pining, Oblivious Steve Rogers.
If the entire team of Avengers could please stop trying to get it on with Tony when Steve is right there, he would really appreciate that, thank you
you'll wait a long time by nanasekei, 16 k > words, Pining, Post-Avengers: Infinity War Part 1 (Movie).
Steve and Tony share a moment during a wedding. Things escalate from there.
-
Alternatively: Four weddings, a funeral, and one very emotionally stunted idiot.
The Game by FestiveFerret, 5 k > words, Gay Chicken.
The game starts when Tony walks into the garage to find Steve sitting astride the R1200RS, staring down at his phone, and he maybe, just a little bit, walks into a car.
Talking Bodies by itsallAvengers, 13 k > words, Misunderstandings, Insecure Steve Rogers.
Coincidentally, the physical effects of romantic and sexual desire match up very closely with the physical effects of fear. But it's not a problem-- it's not like anyone is going to be able to hear the way your heart speeds up, or see the minute dilation of your pupils, are they? They'd have to be some sort of Superhuman to do that.
And what's worse than a Superhuman hearing that quick pulse and seeing those dilated eyes and concluding that you're in love with them?
A Superhuman hearing that quick pulse and seeing those dilated eyes and thinking you're terrified of them.
more than just a dream. by frostfall, 10 k > words, Alternate Universe - Modern Setting, Parent Tony Stark.
Tony: Fine.
Tony: I think I might.
Tony: Just might.
Tony: Have a teensy-weensy crush.
Peter: ;)
Peter: Is it who I think it is?
Tony: Unfortunately, yes.
Tony: You happy now?
(Peter thinks he's found the perfect partner for his dad. Tony thinks his son has officially lost his mind. Steve's just oblivious to the fact that he's out of Tony's league.)
don’t want you to get it on (with nobody else but me). by frostfall, 4 k > words, Jealous Steve Rogers, The Pocky Game.
There are a lot of things that Steve doesn’t get about the future. But it’s fine. He will, eventually. He has time.
But one thing he knows is that he’ll never, ever be able to wrap his head around is the fanfare surrounding Pocky.
(Or Steve’s jealous of biscuit sticks.)
check yes (if the feeling isn't new) by cvptains, 12 k > words, Post-Captain America: Civil War (Movie), Meddling.
After the battle with Thanos, both Tony and Steve struggle with reconnecting in certain aspects of their lives. Sam Wilson and Peter Parker are totally over it.
Where both Steve and Tony's respective friends make accounts for them on the renowned dating app, FlickLove, and the results come out a bit... surprising. Cue unadvisable meddling that really — honestly — comes from good intentions.
take my heart clean apart by mistymountainking, 13 k > words, Tony Stark Has Self-Esteem Issues.
He’s tired, so tired of waiting, tired of touches with no meaning, tired of holding his breath when Steve’s in the room, tired of keeping this love to himself.
“I can’t—I can’t, if you don’t mean it.”
***
Tony comes home exhausted after an SI event. Steve acts as welcoming committee. It's an old, careworn routine they've perfected over the years, but tonight ends up going in a very different direction.

Hi anon again. I used ellipses, didn't know. I'm sorry. I don't remember what I said exactly but in short part (1/2) was me lamenting how I discussed a Star Wars book on reddit and mentioned, among many other things, that it was sexist. I've been insulted by everyone who bothered to comment for two days now and I'm just tired of this hatred, and rudeness, and hatred of prequels, and hatred of Jedi. And I know it's kind of my fault because
because I should have said it in a gentler way because people like this book and I offered them. But to be honest they got to me. I didn't think they would, but they really managed to hurt my feelings. And I know I sound like a teenager and not an older woman that I am, but I am just so tired of all this negativity and people's first reaction to be cruel. I am glad your Tumblr exists. Sorry for dumping all this on you. 2/2) And they just got so personal and insulting... they got to me. I didn't think they would, but they really hurt me. I just want to crawl away and enjoy Star Wars on my own. I am so tired of insults and attacks about a fictional work that should bring us joy. But I also want to share with others and I just keep on coming back for more. I sound like a teenager finding myself, but I'm an old woman, I should know better. Sorry to bother you but your Tumblr feels like a refuge sometimes. - D.L. 
I’m glad you came back (tumblr is strange, if you don’t know about these things--BECAUSE TUMBLR NEVER TELLS US THESE THINGS, WE HAVE TO FIGURE THEM OUT FOR OURSELVES--there’s no need to apologize, we figure these things out as we go!) but I’m very sorry that you’ve been going through this. As someone who’s been hurt by a lot of the shitty things people have leveled at me in this fandom, my advice is based on what helped me, but hopefully it can help you as well.  If it doesn’t, it doesn’t (it may not for everyone!), I still offer you my sympathy and empathy both.  First off, give yourself permission to be hurt and upset for awhile, take that pressure off yourself to just get over it, because piling extra guilt on will only make it longer.  Recognize that you’re human, you’re going to go through these feelings, it’s part of being a regular thinking person and is the first step to being able to let go. Second, after you have some time letting yourself be upset about it, recognize that these are people who are not worth the time and vulnerability from you.  It still burns when they react like this, Star Wars is a hell fandom, but ultimately they’re not the people you really care about their opinions of you. I get that it’s hard for people to hear criticisms of their favorites, literally everyone is like that, especially when we disagree on what constitutes “valid criticism”, what is valid for one person to level at a book isn’t going to be valid for the next person--the trick is in respecting boundaries, that you can’t overwrite the other person’s view of it, just as they can’t overwrite yours.  And resorting to personal attacks and personal derogatory commentary (which happens a lot in this fandom) is a really shitty thing people do that you have to figure out how you want to deal with it--do you want to fire back? do you want to rise above it? do you want to leave?  I ask these honestly, there’s no right or wrong answer, only the one that will work for you.  (It’s a question I ask myself a lot.  Is it fair that people make shitty vague blogs about me?  No, but they’re going to do so anyway, so what’s my response?  What can I handle?  What do I want to handle?  What’s my response, given that I probably cannot change this about fandom.) Maybe you were more aggressive than you had to be, but that’s still not a reason for them to respond with personal insults.  The only thing that’s on you is to decide what amount of this kind of reaction you can/want to handle, not that you’re responsible for other people’s shitty behavior. One of the major ways I dealt with fandom being so overwhelmingly anti-prequels and anti-Jedi is that I set up my camp here on tumblr, I established my boundaries, I enforced them hard (mostly through blocking because I was not up to pushing back for a long time, but occasionally talking about my personal experiences, being as careful as I could not to be pointing fingers at people, but truly speaking of what it meant for me in my position and what I was going through, trying to always recognize that other people are allowed to disagree with me about opinions on fictional things and they must be respected for that, even if I strongly disagree with them, just as the reverse must be true--or at least I must demand it in interactions I have) and it’s worked out really well. Not everyone in this corner is going to agree with everything I say, I disagree with other pro-Jedi fans on some things, but they’ve been really kind and gracious about seeing things differently that even if it’s something I feel very strongly about, I respect that they disagree and I hope I give that back to them at least half as much. That’s generally my advice--seek out the people you know who also find that book sexist and talk about it (while allowing room for people who disagree, because it’ll make you happier in the long run, as well, but that they do so in a civil sort of way) or make your own posts talking about it, simply because you want to talk about it.  When I started writing pro-Jedi posts, I knew I had to do it because I wanted to do it, not because it was going to win me internet points or whatever, I had to be willing to do it in a vacuum (another question I often have to ask myself:  “If this [project] gets crickets/some sort of bad response, would I still have enjoyed the process of doing it?” and it’s helped me a lot to be honest in that answer) or just seek out people who seem like they’re doing the same thing you want to be doing, redirect your efforts into things you enjoy doing in this fandom, because I promise that “I am spitefully going to double down on how I view this thing” can eventually turn into “I love talking about this thing in this vein just because I love it!” if you focus on what you want to do. And also remember that there can be very cool people on reddit (or any other social media place) but there can also be fucking awful people who are going to be fucking awful and it’s normal that it hurts when you get blasted by them and it’s normal that you want to retreat into a refuge for awhile, I fully support that.  Find what makes you happy, whatever that is, and just crank up the “I love this thing so much I’m gonna BARF RAINBOWS about it!” to the max it can go.  It’ll make you feel better after awhile.  (But give yourself the freedom to be hurt, take that burden off yourself, face that part of it, and eventually it gets easier to let go of it, I hope.  *hugs*  I don’t know if any of this was helpful, but at the very least you have my sympathy and my empathy for how shitty fandom can be sometimes.)

hi Liv! oh my gosh i'm sorry that it has taken me forever to get back you! i finally got caught up on all of your fics, and i know that i have said this before but i love your writing so so much! everything is always so well written and i really love how you put so much thought and effort into it. you always seem to take traits that the boys have irl and incorporate them into the fics, as well as portraying what an actual relationship looks like - having both ups and downs.
Jin and Poopsie are an absolute breath of fresh air. they both have that chaotic energy to them that Jin himself exudes. i also love how they were best friends before they actually got together. my most favorite fic from these two definitely has to be "I still choose you every single day" where Jin told her "I just don't want to contribute to anything negative in your life, that's not what a partner should do." LIKE UGH🥺 he is just absolutely perfect in every way possible!!
Min and Kid are just two precious babies. 😭 they're one in the same. while reading their story up to now i had this thought in the back of my head that maybe that they were so hesitant at first to get close to each other was because they'd possibly been hurt before in the past, and just had some kind of wall built up from the particular experience? i feel like i have read the "I know it's 4 am but it's snowing" fic almost a thousand times. the whole time i was just like 🥺 they gradually became more comfortable with each other and were more open to talk about a lot of different things; it's so refreshing and warm to see! they are 100% my faves!
next to Min and Kid, Jimin and Dear are my second faves! for some reason the two relationships feel the same to me and have similar dynamics but with just different people and different situations. they both have definitely had their rough patches but they were able to work through them and come out stronger and better than ever. the reason why they remind me of each other a lot aside from that is because of Jimin and Dear's breakup; it reminded me of how before Min and Kid made things 100% official, there was a point in tine where Yoongi had to go to Japan and when he got back he went to see Kid. they had that argument and Kid said "you know that I would ruin myself over and over again for you." they are both willing to whatever it takes to be with each other, and even though the girl wanted them both Jimin and Yoongi felt like they weren't enough for them?
Namjoon and Daisy are so fond of each other that it's so adorable. i remember in the post where you gave facts about the girls you mentioned that Daisy can't cook but is learning, sings in the shower, has a fashion sense, and is intimidating but soft; it's like she is the girl version of Namjoon in some way. in my head i can definitely imagine the two of them coordinating outfits, going on long walks together, giving each other help and tips while cooking. i can also see them just doing simple little things like more museum dates, picnics in a park, hiking together, reading together, playing games together on rainy days in. they level each other out well!
Jungkook, Hobi, and Tae's relationships also strike me as being a little similar because it's like they both just have a love that's purely innocent. they have their ups and downs to but majority of everything that comes from them is wholesome.
(i hope you are doing well and staying safe love!!❤❤)
Omg don’t apologize, you’re totally fine! I’m so glad you enjoy the fics, that makes me really happy! Min and Kid are just a little special lol they are overwhelmingly the favs on here and rightfully so haha. I agree, there are certain couples that definitely share similar origins/have similar dynamics. I would even group Daisy and Joon into the Min/Kid and Jimin/Dear group bc of Daisy’s fears and hesitations early on. Those three are all really fun couples to write because of the growth they’ve made since their hard times. 
Jin and Poopsie lmao I personally relate to Jin a lot so writing for them is so fun because I get to let all my chaotic strangeness out on them. I do that with Tae and Peaches a little bit too and it’s always a good time lmao. 
Omg I’m actually planning a fic where Daisy is giving Joon cooking lessons, even though she’s far from a pro herself. They really are kind of mirrors of each other :( 
I agree, Jungkook/Holly, Hobi/Petal, and Tae/Peaches all maintain this kind of wholesome/innocent/besties within the domestic sphere vibe. They never have too many conflicts and when they do they can easily work through them and forgive and move on. There’s just a lot of mutual understanding between these three couples. They’re so sweet :( I swear, everyone deserves the Petal to their Hobi or vice versa and that’s that on that. 
Thank you for sending this, I love hearing your guys’ thoughts on the couples and it means a lot that you took the time to type all of this up <3

[TRANSLATION: POTATO 04.2021]
7 MEN SAMURAI CROSS TALK + RECENT MEMO
Scans not mine
Neither an English nor a Japanese native speaker
Feel free to correct me, thanks
Tumblr media Tumblr media
WHO IS NO. 1 IN TERMS OF ACTING ABILITY!?
For the purpose of checking out the acting ability of the 6 members, different patterns of "smile" were shown. At the end of a heated discussion in the round table discussion, a member who is good at telling lies was revealed!? (The interview was taken in the middle of February.)
Reia-kun is a professional in acting to deceive people
Yabana: This time's theme is "acting ability".
Sasaki: (in loud voice) WHAT!
Nakamura: No, he didn't mean "act here now" LOL. You run into the conversation too fast. Recently, for a project for YouTube, we did a prank on Bana-san (Yabana), right?
Motodaka: We did a cosplay where we shouldn't be recognized. During that time, I desperately covered everyone with my body so that everyone's disguise will not be caught by Bana-san's sight LOL. It was an acting where I used my whole body.
Konno: And us, who are being covered, were disguising ourselves with all our might. It was fun!
Sugeta: Rinne even changed his pants on the spot LOL.
Nakamura: Yabana, how suspicious were you at that time?
Yabana: I think [I got suspicious] when I saw Taiko's face laughing happily LOL. It's obviously that that is his face when he trick people. With that, Taiko's acting level is quite low.
Sasaki: That's what I also think LOL.
Nakamura: Speaking of YouTube, we always have a birthday surprise plans for the members, but for some reason, we didn't pull anything for Katsuki's and Konpi's (Konno) birthdays.
Konno: Yeah. Honestly, I thought, "Have they forgotten about my birthday?" and I got sad LOL.
Motodaka: I am not saying to prepare us 2 different surprises, but why did you not prepare anything?
Yabana: No, you don't know? Perhaps the reason why we are talking about this now might probably because we've got something for you too, you know?
Sugeta: Yeah, this might be a foreshadowing, you know?
Motodaka: There's definitely none LOL. Our birthdays passed a long time ago already. If you insist, Reia's birthday is coming soon, right? LOL
Yabana: When you make it look like there's a surprise but there's none at all is the saddest pattern of prank LOL.
Sasaki: Who might be in the 1st place in acting in private among us?
Yabana: It is probably Reia-kun. He often deceives people, he is an expert in acting!
Nakamura: I myself think so too LOL.
Sasaki: Didn't you fool HiHi Jets and Bi Shounen all along?
Nakamura: I did, but I can't remember what it is about. They are pure so they believed for around 2 years in the proper lie I said to them LOL.
Motodaka: Reia is good with acting in times like that. Me too in the past, he told me, "the staff are very mad" with a facial expression that looked real and I completely believed him.
Nakamura: Fufufu...if you look closely, I am doing the face saying, "I am lying." On the contrary, Taiko is usually bad when telling lies. His feelings are shown on his face immediately. It is easy to understand his face like "Is that an emoji!?"
Yabana: A speech bubble saying, "I am telling a lie now" is faintly coming out from him LOL. That's why when he talked at the beginning of my prank video, I noticed about it immediately.
Motodaka: Rinne is also easy to know if he is telling a lie, right?
Konno: His feelings totally show in his behavior.
Nakamura: Yeah, yeah. He is bad at acting lively especially when he is feeling down LOL. He obviously couldn't talk.
Yabana: It is like he is saying, "I am having a problem."
Sugeta: ...I agree with you LOL.
Sasaki: Konpi is also easy to understand, right? When he fools others, he will certainly look at my eyes and will grin.
Konno: I want to make the 2 of us the suspects LOL.
Nakamura: When Katsuki tricks people, his ears immediately turns very red LOL.
Yabana: His ears are a lie detector, right? It turns very red like it is going to explode.
Nakamura: If there is someone he likes, he will be exposed immediately. She will be like, "This person probably likes me. Since his ears are super red." LOL
Motodaka: What~ I don't like that. Somehow or other, I think it is something you can't falsify LOL.
Sasaki: On the contrary, Yabana is good with lies . He said he was interviewed in the street by chance for 「Getsuyou kara Yofukashi」recently, but that one is also an acting, right?
Nakamura: The truth is that he can't play intruments too, right?
Yabana: Hey, stop it! To the readers, what they just said are both lies, okay?! LOL Or rather, I have not deceived people or lied to anyone!
Everyone except Yabana: That's a lie~!
Nakamura: 7 MEN 侍's best actor is not me but Yabana-kun~.
Yabana: Stop~that~! LOL
Influenced by the acting coaching of Koichi-kun for the DREAM BOYS
Nakamura: I really like the performance of Taiko when he is on stage.
Yabana: I know. Well, he is in character, but suddenly his aura of being a stupid brat was gone and becomes a human being LOL.
Motodaka: Yeah, right. When he was on stage, he became able to speak good Japanese.
Sasaki: ...I hate you all! LOL
Yabana: I also like Rinne-kun's acting in「DREAM BOYS」. There's a scene that (Domoto) Koichi-kun enthusiastically coaches, and as the result of Rinne steadily absorbing the advices, Rinne is turning into Koichi-kun day by day LOL.
Sugeta: I think since he presented a really good example, so I was influenced naturally. I was thankful. Rinne likes Katsuki's acting in 「Nounai Poison Berry」.
Konno: Ah yes, that was a good one.
Everyone except Konno: You haven't seen that, right? LOL
Sugeta: Konpi has not seen any of the members' stage plays until now, right?
Konno: That's just a coincidence LOL. Because during the showing of 「Oretachi Oenya!!~」where Taiko and Rinne appeared, wasn't it exactly during our preparation for 「~The Happy Prince」?
Nakamura: If you say so LOL. Katsuki's acting and Konpi's acting in 「The Happy Prince」were also good.
Yabana: Yeah, right. Serious acting suited them. Also, Konpi's appearance when he sat on the chair and turned round and round LOL.
Konno: Thank you! I had put all of my acting into that scene LOL.
Sugeta: Bana-san tried different acting patterns in daily special corner of「DREAM BOYS」. I think that was really good!
Yabana: I change my hairstyle depending on the day. And then, I match my acting with my hairstyle like, "Today I will go for a mood that looks slightly weak," or "Today, I am in all back hairstyle so I will go for a character that seems strong," and I am changing my acting a little by little. I also changed my costume a little by little, for some reason, all the cast laughed at me on the day where I appeared in tank top...LOL.
Sugeta: Coz you are skin and bones LOL.
Konno: Yeah, right. You are so thin that you look pitiful LOL.
Sasaki: Reia. For me, Reia's acting on stage is also good of course, but I think his acting on television is overwhelmingly good. You do understand me, right?
Konno: Yup. That's exactly about the drama「Gekikaradou」(TV Tokyo) he is appearing in currently, right?
Motodaka: In a sense that he can do whatever he wants is very Reia. I think it is a great thing that he was able to properly reflect himself to his character.
Yabana: The "yey🎶" in that drama is also like Reia's humor, right?
Sasaki: Well, but the usual Reia that we see is close to his character in Dream Boys.
Yabana: We think, "When will we be get beaten?" so we are constantly scared of him.
Nakamura: You are kidding LOL.
Sasaki: Let me ask just in case, since you are moving towards dramas, it doesn't mean that you are throwing away stage plays, right? Please make this clear.
Nakamura: Of course! LOL. Don't say weird things, I want to challenge acting in stage plays from now on too!
Motodaka: Which reminds me, the stage play where Rinne is starring (「Hidamari no Ki」) is starting soon, right? It starts in March, right?
Sugeta: Yup, you're right. By the time this magazine issue comes out, the Tokyo performance have started already.
Nakamura: Doesn't that look super interesting? I also wanna watch it soon.
Motodaka: More than anything else, I am sincerely hoping that the play will start safely. This is what everyone who got an experience with stage play thinks.
Konno: Rinne is lucky so he will definitely be okay! I believe in that!
Sugeta: Even though you said that, you surely won't come and watch, right? LOL
Konno: No, I will go. I will watch you!
Sasaki: This one is an acting, absolutely LOL.
Konno: I am coming~ LOL.
RECENT MEMO
Sugeta Rinne:
I see off my younger sister, who is taking the national examination, at 6 this morning.I want her to do her best that she can use all the effort she exerted up to this day. Not only my sister, but Rinne and my younger brother also got a charm from our papa. Rinne's charm is a prayer for the success of the stage play.
Konno Taiki:
The selfie project in ISLAND TV is difficult. Every time the day I'm in charged gets closer, I become desperate. I already ran out of idea during the 2nd time we did it LOL. I want to take applications of the poses that the fans want us to do!
Yabana Rei:
When I met Tatsumi (Yudai)-kun by chance last January, he gave me a New Year's money. I was moved at how kind senpai he is. Someday, I also want to give New Year's money to my juniors and be respected LOL.
Sasaki Taiko:
I finally purchased a drum set. Since I do not know which one to buy, so the drummer who I am acquainted with and I admire came with me to the store. I am really thankful that he recommended me the items that match with my style of beating the drums!
Nakamura Reia:
I watched at home the movie「The Letters」where Yamada Takayuki-san is starring. I am glad that the story is very deep, and more than anything else, Yamada-san being immersed in his acting is so great that I was drawn into [the movie] the whole time!
Motodaka Katsuki:
I went fishing for the first time with my brother who is 4 years younger than me. My brother caught a large number of fishes that I can't imagine that it was his first time. The total amount of catch we had that day was 77 horse mackerels! It was so delicious when I made it into namerou (finely chopped fish with miso paste) that it disappeared in no time.

My jaw is hurting me a bunch right now. Sinus pressure I think. Which has got me bummed. But today was an excellent day. And thats really cool.
I slept alright last night. Had weird dreams. But i woke up feeling good. It was a bit to hot again. But i felt cute in my outfit and was having a good morning.
I enjoyed my morning. Just chilled for a while. I decided to go show my sculpture to the dentist but i accidently broke off one of the roots/legs of the thing so i had to fix it. But they are still really excited about it. They kept asking me if I came up with the idea and were really nice about it. It was cool.
But because it was broke and I didn't want to carry it around with me. I didn't want it to get worse. So I biked right back home to drop it off. I glued it back together while I was there so it would be dry when I got home. And then I left.
I biked down towards the Harbour. And I went to Chipotle. I got nachos and a soda. I ended up giving half of my nachos and cheese to a homeless guy outside. I rinsed off my soda cup and gave him ice water two. I felt bad giving him a spicy food if I didn't also give him a drink. And it was way too hot outside. And he was being nice holding the door for everyone who came in and out of the store. It just felt like the right thing to do.
I went back and got the bus to work. I walked in the school at 12:30 and Tiffany was getting there too. I went to get the lunches and everyone else slowly got together while we figured out where we were supposed to meet with our kids. A whole bunch of stuff went down in the interim so we ended up leaving almost a half an hour late. I have so much more sympathy for field trips now than I ever did before. Because trying to Corral 65 kids and about 20 adults was way harder than I thought it would be. And there was a teacher who holds on to some of the kids phones during school time and she wouldn't give two of my kids the phones back because it was still daytime but we're leaving the building and won't be back until almost 7 and it was just a whole thing. And then one child was approved to go but his younger sister wasn't so then he got really upset. It all ended up being fine and we all got on the bus but was very upsetting for a few minutes. I had to reassign groups because of some drama. But everybody seemed fairly happy with who they were partnered with. We got on the bus and Chelsi sat at the very back and I sat in the middle at the end of where our kids and the next group of kids started. I had Mackenzie come and sit next to me and that was perfect. Because both of us just want to listen to wear headphones and be quiet. Everyone else sat in their groups and off we went.
It was a pretty long drive out to LOL station. About an hour. But it was a nice ride. I listen to music for a bit. A little bit of a podcast. It was nice. We got there and there was confusion about where we were supposed to go in so we drove around the parking lot for a while but it was all good we got there and got inside.
My group was really good about staying together and being with their partner. I was very proud of them. The police was inside of a mall. Which is a weirdly popular thing in Baltimore or Maryland. Having big attractions in malls. But that was cool. We got there and their condition wasn't working super well so it's a little warm but not the worst thing. I was very sweaty by the end of the day but I had a really good time. It was extra good because there was no other people there. That was excellent! Because then I don't have to worry about someone kidnapping my child. Or getting lost in a crowd. It was just us. It was great.
It was decided that Mackenzie would be my buddy for the day. Because she felt like she was a little bit too mature for all the other kids. So we went on the roller coaster together. Which was really just a small spinning one on the ground but that was great.
I don't like heights anyway.
We did the bumper cars. And we did the two obstacle courses that they had. I liked the inflatable obstacle course better than the other one which was more like a ninja challenge. Because I couldn't get up the ninja challenge wall and had to go up the easier one. I still beat Mackenzie all three times. Even when I had my sock fall off in the middle of one of the races.
I prefer the inflatable one though because it had two big slides in it and I really enjoyed that. I wish I could just have done the slide part. It was still really really fun.
We had lunch a little after 3:30. We had brought sandwiches for all the kids but most of them brought money so that they could get something else as well. I bought french fries and shared some of them with my students that didn't have money. And it was really nice. Right after lunch we were allowed to use the roller skating rink. And I have never in my life used four wheel roller skates. I only ever use the inline kind when I was a kid. So this was a new experience.
And I had a blast! I first the skates I got on where to big. I didn't realize they were men sizes. So I had to go and change and get size fours. Which put me way better. And I was able to skate forwards and backwards. I was able to do a couple small tricks that I can do with figure skating. I wasn't as good at first but by the end of the half-hour I was skating around them like crazy. I hope the couple of the kids but it's hard to explain how to push on skates and a lot of them were doing the shuffle thing and it does not work very well on four wheeled skates. So there's a lot of kids on the ground. But I'm really glad that they all got to try. It was a lot of fun. But oh my God was I sweaty.
Just overwhelmingly hot. But we were finishing up and everyone got together and threw their cups away once we all have water. And then we went to get on the bus to go home.
We were leaving after 5 so there was a lot of traffic. And that was hard on some of the kids. About half of the little kids fell asleep and three or four of mind it as well. Including Mackenzie who fell asleep on me which was absolutely precious. I just lay there and listen to my podcast and enjoyed the ride.
We got back to the school at 6:30. And all of my kids got picked up and it was time to go home. Miss Elaine and Marcus give me a ride home. My bike was still at streets though so once they drop me off I walked home for a second and then walk down to get my bike and then came home. I made dinner and worked on fixing the tooth sculpture. I took a shower. Washed my hair again because I was so sweaty. And now I'm laying in bed. I'm going to go to sleep soon probably. I want to watch scary videos even though they always freaked me out. And then tomorrow I get to see James. We're going to celebrate our one-year anniversary and I'm very much looking forward to it. We have a full day planned. We're going to be disgusting and romantic and it's going to be great.
Sleep well everyone. Be safe out there.

So I want to try to start writing and I figured doing little fics would maybe be a good intro. Do you have any tips to getting started? I have only written school papers so I don't know if I'm any good yet
Hello!!!
I’m so glad to hear that you want to give writing a try. I think that it is a great way to express your creativity and participate in creating the fics you want to see in the world! 
I started writing fic about a 18 months ago (this is my first real fandom experience) and this place has been overwhelmingly supportive. When I jumped into this fandom I lurked for quite a while and then dove in head first, consuming content like a hungry beast and reading so much fic I barely slept. Then came the writing, and I was in a similar situation as you are. Not a lot of writing experience outside of school assignments and wanting to give it a try. 
My advice for others looking to write is always, at its heart, simple: Write. 
I’m not sure if there’s any “right” way, but I can certainly share my experience.
Finding Inspiration:When I started I just let my mind wander (usually after watching an episode of GMM) let my imagination take over where the cameras stop. What happens before? What happens after? Why was he acting like that? What would Rhett say after Link did that? Those kinds of questions fueled my early one shots. 
Technical Skills: I am still learning, and I’m sure that never stops, but familiarizing myself with the basics in writing and formatting dialogue was important for improving readability. I think what really helped me turn the corner here was finding myself a beta reader that I trusted and respected and that wanted to help. I’ve learned so much and I know that I am a better writer as a result. 
BETA READERS ARE THE BEST. 
Resources: 
Thesaurus: Dude. Let me just tell you how much I use a thesaurus. A lot. But don’t get thesaurus syndrome. Because sometimes “quick” outdoes “perfunctory”. Know what I mean? 
Ngram: If you are writing period peices and you want to find out about language use of the time. This is your dearest friend. Big thanks to @thegreyhenley for directing me here. I was a lost lamb.
Fellow Shippers: These people know EVERYTHING. I swear. If you are looking for clarification on timelines, names, the colour of Link’s third cousin’s cat’s eyes…. these people KNOW. It is a gift and it helps to make your fic as accurate as possible and to include canon details that make your work more authentic. 
Motivation: Getting started, it can be overwhelming, especially now that the fandom has grown and there are so many people writing such amazing content. Don’t allow yourself to get discouraged. Readers will find you if you create work for them to find. 
Your primary motivation to write should come from within, and it seems as though that is the case for you. Write for you. Write because you need to tell your story. Write because it brings you joy. As soon as you start reading for views and reviews, you’ve lost the spark that fuels the good stuff ;)
Promotion and tumbling:Don’t be afraid to promote your writing. Share it on your blog (if you have one). Having a tumblr account associated with your AO3 account makes you more accessible to your readers who sometimes like to reach out here about content posted there. In addition, it allows you to connect and communicate with not only readers, but other writers! 
This fandom is very supportive of its writers and are happy to share links and read fic that is being promoted here on tumblr, and I am certain you will be happily welcomed into the fold of Rhink fic writers :) 
Tips and Tricks: Tumblr is full of awesome posts for writers. I have a tag for writing resources you can check out if you like. HERE. 
I hope this was helpful and I can’t wait to see what you’ve got up your sleeves!
MUCH LOVE AND HAPPY WRITING!!!
RTR
