Wanted to ask about beetlelyds, sorry, I thought it was technically cannon? Like in the old comics after the show ended she grew up and married him. Sorry I’m an old school fan and have no idea why this whole thing is such a big deal. Wasn’t the actor like 20 too? I’m sorry if I sound very dumb. I’m not used to this new tumblr.
youre fine you are one hundred percent allowed to especially when you do it civilly as you have done here
first of all the biggest issue faced in the whole what is and is not canon debate is the fact that there are three (four if you count the limited comics run) publicized iterations of my media
i will go over each very briefly just kidding this is going to a long answer so i will spare the dashboard with a readmore
there is the movie which im sure you dont need me to explain the plot since youre an old school fan but basically the climax is that yes beetlejuice does go for the marriage angle in exchange for stopping the exorcism of adam and barbara and his motive for this is so that he can cause as much chaos as he wants on the mortal coil but his plan is thwarted when barbara rides a sandworm into the house which promptly eats beetlejuice sending him to bureaucratic death limbo
the end of the movie features the deetz and the maitlands happily living together with lydia havign a new appreciation for her situation and beetlejuice gets his head made real small which is very funny haha 
so no in the movie they are not canon editors note the actress who played lydia winona ryder was a teenager while filming the movie she turned 17 the year it released 
the next is the cartoon which i will admit has the most grounds for being considered canon but in the end the show is about a middle schooler and her best friend who is a ghost which in itself is a pretty iffy gray area sort of thing but for a childrens cartoon to work a friendship is better than the obvious enemy status they held in the movie
anyway in the cartoon they are potrayed to be very close friends with lydia being the person beetlejuice cares about the most and honestly if you were to watch it with no prior knowledge of the media and if you ignored their massive and obvious age difference than yeah you probably would read it as a romantic relationship 
however lydia is a middle schooler and that is simply immoral
there have been writers for the cartoon who have been credited to say that a relationship is what they were trying to invoke but for obvious reasons they couldnt exactly move forward with that angle with them establishing that lydia is a child in middle school and a fully grown adult man dating a child who is in middle school is immoral and also illegal in the united states and in canada 
this isnt a good argument for whether or not something is canon and i will tell you why with one simple name and that is luke weber
if you dont know who luke weber is he was a storyboard artist on the cartoon steven universe he is known for making a lot of self ship artwork of him and the character pearl
he worked on the show isnt his material canon no of course it isnt it wasnt put in the actual publication and also if memory serves he was eventually asked to leave the project after he drew art of the shows creator giving him permission to date pearl and calling them her otp and a lot of fans hated this because the most generally accepted interpretation of pearls character is that she is sapphic so a lot of people took issue however that again is just a widely perceived headcanon it is never stated what her actual sexuality is no one in that show is because it isnt a show about that its about wait im getting off topic sorry
what im saying is what can truly be considered canon is what you see on the screen and with the cartoon they are definitely the most friendly with each other and that is why so many people in the beetlebabe shipping community take so much stock in the cartoon because it is the easiest to read the relationship between the mas romantic although that is not what the show actually provides in black and white terms
interpretation does not equal canon and in this case no matter what anyone says the fact remains that in the cartoon itself they are friends good friends yes but friends all the same
it is definitely not a show about a grown man grooming an adult and if it were you definitely shouldn’t be stanning it the extreme because grooming a minor is wrong and it is apparently a problem in the fandom
anyway if the cartoon and the movie are both products of their time and there was more leniency on content bear in mind this was the same era as notorious animation powerhouse and known predator john k who was a showrunner on ren and stimpy and he maintained a relationship with a teenager which was an open secret that nobody really took issue with because in that time being a woman in the animation industry was tricky business and your career could be ended easily if you rejected advances luckily time has moved forward and the animation industry although still full of problems of a similar nature at least people are getting called out and punished for it
you can look more into that yourself its really upsetting though
as for comics i havent been able to find good scans of them and im not willing to purchase them but in my search i never found anything about the two of them ever being married in the cartoon again because she is a child i did find a cover where he appears to be getting married and hes asking lydia to get him out of it but im not sure where the comic actually goes all i know is she is standing off to the side shrugging and looking like she doesnt really care
anyway that brings us to the musical which is set in the modern day 
in the original libretto lydia is described as thirteen but since they got an actress who was older in the updated librettos she is listed as 15 and the story is pretty similar to the movie the young girl befriends ghosts and they try to scare her family out etc etc
the major difference between the film and the musical are that lydia and beetlejuice are more like friends like in the cartoon 
she summons him to help scare after the maitlands attempt doesnt really work so he shows up and they have fun terrorizing people together however she drops him for the opportunity to perhaps get her mom back but when no one will help she goes back to beetlejuice who tricks her into almost exorcising barbara
she agrees to marry him in order to stop the exorcism and he only wants to get married so he can be alive again and cause problems on the mortal coil like in the movie in the musical he states several times its a green card thing whihc obviously doesnt make it okay but still
anyway lydia tricks him and runs off into the underworld before the wedding can happen blah blah blah she goes back blah blah and she agrees to go through with the wedding to save her friends and family with a plan to make him go away for good
theres a very tongue and cheek song called creepy old guy which points out how wrong the whole thing is but everyone is going along with it in a very comedic matter and it includes the line 
i cant believe some cultures think this kind of things alright
basically saying yeah this is very very wrong anyway they do get married and beeltjeuice is alive for like 6 seconds before lydia stabs him to death with bad art and he dies thus nullifying the marriage because death do you part etc
so in the musical no at the end of the show they are not canon because he is dead their marriage is nullified and they go their separate ways
anyway sorry about that i just need to make it very clear that these three properties are all very distinct from each other and basically all three are indeed canon since they are publicized material and arguing the validity of which one is pointless editors note all actresses who played with the exception of dana steingold were minors for the majority of their runs as lydia with sophia ann caruso the originator of the role turning 18 during the run and dana being in her late twenties presley ryan however was a minor the whole time and still is one
tldr no they aren’t canon but to the credit of some people in this fandom their interpretation isnt too far of a stretch thanks to the era and some of the writers wishing to imply a relationship between an adult and a child
i also need to address how this is all a big deal and i suggest you take a peak through my discourse tag and check out @leedia‘s blog to see some of the more harmful things done by beetlebabe shippers
the beetlejuice fandom is home to many minors after the musical came out since musical fandom is vast and the ages of its members varies and normalizing pedophilia is harmful to them not to mention the people who have been effected by sexual harassment at the hands of adults
both sides have victims of csa but one side continues to perpetuate the cycle by showing time and time again that this behavior is normal and easily romanticized in the name of coping and literally anyone who has ever been to a good and credible therapist could tell you that posting cp even if it is simulated cp isnt a really good way to cope and you can get mad at me for saying that its totally fine but and im going to remove my character veil here for just a second as a csa survivor myself i think its harmful to not only myself but many others ok the veil is back down
tldr again there is a lot of bullying and harassment going on with both sides having their own issues but there is one side whos issues run a bit deeper in my humble opinion 
thank you for your question it allowed me to talk a lot you are welcome to discuss further with me in dms if you wish i honestly recommend giving the musical a listen because it is very fun and despite what some people say its very clever and if you get a chance to see a boot of it its visually stunning
one last note that i couldnt really fit in here but a large portion of the beetlebabes shipping community ignore the musical because it openly condemns the idea of beeltejuice and lydia having a relationship and a lot of the antis take issue with much of the writing and characterizations of the cartoon just a note that i think is important since were talking about canon

Princess Tutu episodes 14-end
Tumblr media
I watched the entire second half of the series in one day because I make good life choices
Previously on Princess Tutu Watch:
Okay I can get back to Tokyo Mew Mew now
+++++++++++++++++++
It was a lie, I could NOT
EPISODE, UH, FUCK……… 14! - The Raven
asdklsdhflhdl (google docs stop capitalizing my keysmashes) they’re bringing back “once upon a time there was a man who died”!!!!!! Honestly that might be one of my favorite lines in this whole show
Gotta love the sarcasm in “and they lived happily ever after”
The theme song…… it’s so good
Oh nooooooooooooooo
This scene is literally just the “I’ve got a headache that comes and goes” meme
Fakir you complete dork. You’re all dorks
“Princess Tutu and a crocodile are totally different” you tell ‘im, Mytho
Duck speaks so much more regularly than the other main characters? I mean, there’s Fakir over there like “Shall we go?” and Duck saying things like “I’m gonna be late!” and using “like” and “stuff”... I mean, I know this is the dub, but
Duck why are you using Fakir’s dumb excuses omg
Lilie is just the personification of my negative thoughts
BUT WHAT DID MYTHO TELL FAKIR
Awwwwwwww Duck, no
They’re in a terrifying Raven Dimension with like, ominous music and people wailing in the background and meanwhile Kraehe and the Raven are just having like, a normal conversation
Also, are the white feathers supposed to be like, what’s trapping the Raven there?
Duck please
Wait, Princess Tutu transformed on her own!
Episode 15 - Coppelia
Also, watching Fakir try and fail to stop Mytho from jumping out the window is Pain
Lilie you are a Strange Child
STEALTH DUCK RETURNS!
Oh no?? Fakir doesn’t want to get Mytho in trouble???
Tumblr media Tumblr media
alsdfksfh the entire student population is Here For The Drama
Duck don’t yell in the library
Fakir just doesn’t make good decisions
Tumblr media
Oooh that doesn’t look good
Sad Kraehe Theme Alert
You “just happened” to do a lot of things, Lilie
Omg Lilie “Want to just happen to go see?”
Rue just shows up to trash talk Fakir for a minute and then leaves
I say as if I’m not in So Much Pain
Yeah! Every single time Princess Tutu transformed in the first season, it was because Drosselmeyer said something, but now she’s transforming on her own!
Oh no Mytho
Also I like how Tutu doesn’t just flat-out say “you don’t actually love him” and instead is just like “how about you try doing things you enjoy with the guy you like instead of giving him Your Actual Heart”
Episode 16 - The Maiden’s Prayer
Wait is Angry Narrator back or did the other narrator just regain the heart shard of Withering Scorn?
Lilie isn’t even interested in the love triangle, she just wants Duck and Pike to fight
Tumblr media
Is that Goatette
“So pretty…. What? Oh yeah I meant the flowers of course haha” Duck
Tumblr media
Such a serious child
“Love only me, hate everyone else”/“The prince who loves me and me alone”
This child is amazing
It was such a good decision to give Fakir a little sister. A good decision for everyone involved
aslfsdjhklgdlghdjghfdklkdkalh Kraehe told him that Duck would suffer if she knew what was happening with Mytho so Fakir isn’t going to tell herrrrrrrrrr Fakir please don’t internalize that!! You are breaking my heart sir
Oh my god it wasn’t Goatette it was the sloth
*The Can Can plays loudly over a sloth just kinda hangin out*
Episode 17 - Crime and Punishment
This may or may not have been the last episode I watched the first time I watched this show?
Tumblr media
“Eyes of truth” huh?
This dumbass child
Femio, from the other side of the school grounds: “DID SOMEBODY SAY ‘PRINCE’????”
What the Fuck are you doing with your hands, kid
Why are you a cow
Honestly as over-the-top as Femio is he is also simultaneously the most realistic middle-schooler in this entire show
Oh my god he’s on probation
I’m sorry I’m just talking about Femio but he’s hilarious
Truly a Grade A Idiot
What is he even doing with his life
I’ve become Lilie
These characters have emotional crises over people saying the stupidest things and tbh I relate to that
Tumblr media
Oh dear!
The thing is, Femio would be really annoying in real life, but in a tv show he’s just amusing
Tumblr media
Rue’s FACE, she’s so done
I like how Duck can tell which building Rue’s in just by the amount of crows around it
Tbh all the students probably have noticed what’s going on, they just think it’s some kind of weird performance art thing. Wouldn’t be out of character for this school
Fakir and Uzura really are siblings, I love this
The best part about this episode is it’s this completely ridiculous person unintentionally getting in the middle of everybody’s emotional issues
“I feel kinda like something happened, and kinda like it didn’t” Duck you are absolutely correct
And of course the Aquarium is good once again
Episode 18 - The Wandering Knight
Incidentally, how old are these kiddos? We know Mytho is older than Duck, so Fakir and Rue probably are too?? But like, probably only by a year? Who even knows what their actual ages are
I mean, Duck is a duck so
Tumblr media
It’s! The trees from the opening!
I don’t know if I’ve asked this before, but why does Fakir have a horse?
Tumblr media
Oh my god Lilie
Can everybody STOP picking on Fakir for being afraid to die? He is 14, leave him alone
Ahiru is trying so hard to be helpful, give her a chance Fakir
Once again Rue shows up to get in a burn on Fakir and then leave
I swear every time the Aquarium plays in this show
Oh noooooooo Ruuuuueeeeeeee
Literally Protect All Of These Characters
Save These Children From Their Own Emotional Issues
FAKIR PLEASE
Pride is absolutely the worst feeling Mytho could get back right now?
“There’s something sinister going on that I’m not a part of!” And that really gets to you doesn’t it Dross. I bet it’s really… grinding your gears!!!
(why do I feel so proud of insulting a fictional character)
Episode 19 - A Midsummer Night’s Dream
Wow we really are starting this one off on a sinister note (it’s Drosselmeyer’s revenge on me for that pun)
Of course he can’t tell you, he doesn’t fuckin know what’s going on
Fakir please stop basing your entire identity around being a knight
Oh no, Mytho’s regained the heart shard of Basing Your Entire Identity Around Upholding A Role
I wonder if Hermia being tall is like, a meta Shakespeare joke, cause in the play Helena’s really tall and Hermia’s really short, but in every production I’ve seen it was the other way around
Rue stop projecting your insecurities onto your boyfriend
Ohhhhhhhh dear
Finally someone tells all the crows hanging around to shut up
Tumblr media
Oh my god she really is super tall
Or Ahiru’s just super short
I am learning so much about ballet mimes
Tumblr media
Cool bird shadows
Tumblr media
Whoa, different raven background. And the Raven isn’t speaking with him this time? What does it mean
On no, Tutu
Hahaha oh no
Aaahaha they’re the same
THEY EVEN DO THE SAME ARM-FLAILY THING
Episode 20 - The Forgotten Story
ALRIGHT, TIME FOR THE FAKIR’S SAD BACKSTORY EPISODE
Raetzel: *walks in*
Uzura: And where do you fit in the shipping chart, ma’am
Tumblr media Tumblr media
THIS is a High Quality Directatorial Decision
Oh no Duck. oh no she’s so earnest nooooo
It is just Extremely Wrong to see Mytho dancing to something besides Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy
Mr. Cat can hear the word “wedding” from three floors up
Oh my GOD they put broken heart stickers on the window
I mean, I say they but we all know it was Lilie
Again, Duck knows exactly where shit’s going down just because that’s where all the crows are
Oh no!
Everybody needs to stop giving Fakir shit Right Now. Everybody needs to stop thinking it’s a bad thing that Fakir didn’t fucking Die, and that includes Fakir OKAY????
I’ve been thinking… Raven Mytho keeps saying things like “people only want love because they want to be loved” and I wonder… if that was sort of his experience as a prince. Or maybe I’m just getting this mixed up with Utena lol. But it does seem like a genuine issue he has as opposed to just something he says to manipulate people. Hm.
Episode 21 - The Spinners
Every time the narrator says “once upon a time there was a man who died” I Will Flip
Duck tries to lean nonchalantly against a door, it goes about how you’d expect
Duck that’s not how writing works (ughgfjdghskjkgf my pain)
AW NO
Oh no Duck is too relatable
UUAAAAAA TREE GHOST TREE GHOST
“Follow my every order and be prepared to die if you should fail” it’s almost like you WANT me to hate you. FAKIR DOESN’T NEED THIS
See Duck agrees with me
PETITION FOR PEOPLE TO LEAVE FAKIR THE FUCK ALONE THAT MEANS YOU TREE GHOST
Ohshit it’s that old guy from the bookshop???
Uzura is NOT “unrelated”, obviously she is Fakir’s baby sister
“I’m just watching again” oh no Duck
Autor what the Fresh Heck are you doing to Fakir
YOU ARE NOT FINE?????????
Honestly Fakir needs to get in touch with his emotions, not get sleep deprived and hallucinate in a field
This tree is saying things Edel said??? Was Edel made from the wood of this tree?????? Oh my god???????????
Anyway that was Intense
Listen, Raven Mytho has real issues and you can fight me on this
Ah, I see Dross is practicing the time-honored authorial tradition of “If the Story Isn’t Working, Hit It With a Wrench”
Episode 22 - Crown of Stone
But who’s going to protect Fakir huh? Answer me that, Duck
Tumblr media
One big-ish happy familyyyyyyyyy
I needed this life advice tbh
Aaaaaah Uzura’s talking to Rue!
“Are you the Rue we’re worried about?” I love how she just included herself in that
Autor, I’m……. not sure you want the tree ghost cult to acknowledge you
Uhm, I’m pretty sure Autor doesn’t fit into the shipping chart and I think Uzura would agree with me
Ah fuck!!! Fakir turn around
Tumblr media
Wait it’s an owl on a grandfather clock?? Is that actually a thing? These watchnotes are coming full circle
“I want people to love me, but is it okay to just be loved?” yep, the prince is having issues
Autor, I’m pretty sure Ahiru is figuring all that out right now
And like, the Book Men totally know it too, so
Tumblr media
HOLY CRAP THIS SEQUENCE
AND THE MUSIC THE MUSIC IS PERFECT
SKLAFDJKVHFJK;JKLSdf;DSLKJFAKSDAKFJHFKLJJFGKLHGJFHSDLJ
I love this show
EPISODE 23 - Marionette
OH! OH! IT’S THE MUSIC EDEL ALWAYS PLAYED BUT SPED UP! That’s actually kinda creepy!
Anyway now I know why I’m so protective of Fakir, we’re both writers who can’t write anything
Oh noooooooooooo Rue
Oooooooooooh don’t like that
Ruuueeeeeeeeee please don’t stab your boyfriend we’ve been over this
Incidentally, hulu needs to quit it with these bogus commercial placements
Drosselmeyer: How dare you try to resolve your emotional problems!
Dross that’s called character development
Hahahaha joke’s on you Dross!
aaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I! LOVE! THEM!
No of course your heart is lovey-dovey Uzura! Your heart is the lovey-dovey-est!!!
Incidentally, Autor is That Guy who says just because you haven’t finished/published anything you’re not a Real Writer. And he is Wrong
Episode 24 - The Prince and the Raven
Okay, just from this title I know I won’t be able to handle this
THIS ISN’T EVEN THE PENULTIMATE EPISODE
YOU ARE HITTING ME WITH ONCE UPON A TIME THERE WAS A MAN WHO DIED RIGHT OUT OF THE GATE I CANNOT BELIEVE
Okay but and then this story explains all of Raven Mytho’s emotional issues as well???
*sigh* Autor……. Fakir literally just told you his motivation is to protect people and you’re still going on about controlling the fates of all mankind… are you sure you’re not Drosselmeyer’s direct descendent?
Rue don’t go into the crow building
Honestly I’m still dying over the fact that you can tell where things are happening purely based on which building all the crows are at today
Tiny Rue is breaking my heart
Tumblr media
UUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAA TINY RUE IS DOING BALLET
Omg Rue in the beginner’s class!
Oh noooo Uzura’s saaaaad
I KNOW I’ve heard this songgggggggg
THAT WAS A BIT OF THE FOSSILS FROM CARNIVAL OF THE ANIMALS???
Okayokayokay so it’s not Carnival of the Animals but DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS it’s another piece by Saint-Saens and DO YOU KNOW what that piece is called????? fuckin Danse Macabre!!!!! I am immediately filled with a sense of foreboding!!!
The music choices in this show are going to destroy me one day
Tumblr media
HOLY CRAP????
I can’t believe so goddamn much happened in this episode???
Episode 25 - The Dying Swan
I’m not rrrrrrrrreadyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Not even the narrator’s obvious disappointment in Drosselmeyer can give me solace
Oh my god so is the Drosselmeyer we know just a character in Dead Drosselmeyer’s story?
I think it’s a testament to this story’s power that I’m having so many emotions about it even though I know what’s going to happen? Like, some stories, reading the summary is pretty much the same as hearing the story, but Princess Tutu is not one of those stories
Like I just overcame my social anxiety to ask my roommate to be quieter, that’s how good this story is
Aaaaaagh Rue’s change from saying “you love me” to saying “I love you” my HEART
Oh shoot! Mytho’s angry! I thought one of the gate heart shards might be anger
Oh my god Autor literally no one cares what TEA Drosselmeyer drank look at Fakir he’s so done
Tumblr media
Aaaaaaaa ohno
EVISCERATE HIM FAKIR
Holyshitholyshitholyshit
Okay but see the lake is outside the city so Dross just took some random normal duck and plunked her down in his fairytale town and that’s why like, a cat teacher seems weird to her because she’s not from inside the story
OH NO THEY’RE PLAYING THE SWAN BUT THIS TIME IT’S RUE
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr fuck OFFFFFF
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh it’s the sword birds
excUSE you Dross, the knight has NOT “long been useless”
Episode 26 - Finale
I can’t believe after 9 years I’m finally going to finish watching this show
Okay it’s happening
It begins and ends with “once upon a time, there was a man who died”, the absolute most perfect first line in the history of first lines and you can fight me on this
Okay I’m already almost crying just from the theme song, like the Tchaikovsky fits perfectly into it? I’m gonna sing it
I’m just screaming???? They’re all in distress
BUT DUCK IS NOT GOING TO GIVE IN TO DISTRESS
RUE IS THE SWAN
DUCK DECIDES TO WRITE HER OWN STORY AND THE MUSIC FROM THE END OF THE THEME SONG STARTS PLAYING MY HEART
Tumblr media
I’M ACTUALLY CRYING
IT’S ALL THE PEOPLE SHE HELPED
THEY ARE PLAYING THE THEME THAT PLAYS WHEN DUCK IS HAPPY
FUCKING -- AND YOU HIT ME WITH ONCE UPON A TIME THERE WAS A MAN WHO DIED NOW
Tumblr media
LOOK! LOOK THE SCENERY OUTSIDE THE TOWN FADES IN
I watched it.

Girlfriend protector, agent Im Nayeon — 2YEON
Title: Girlfriend protector, agent Im Nayeon Pairing: 2YEON [Im Nayeon/Yoo Jeongyeon] Fandom: TWICE Genre: Romance, drama, fluff Summary:  Nayeon and Jeongyeon both work as waitresses in a coffee shop. The two are already dating, and can’t get enough of each other. All is good, until a customer provokes a certain conversation to come up. Word count: 4500+ Rating: T A/N: Excuse the grammar mistakes, I am not a native english speaker.
Read it on: AO3 & asianfanfics
It was one of those days you just hated as a waitress. It was hot outside, causing a lot of people to have taken place at the terrace, asking for a drink or for some food. People were either loving the warming sun outside or enjoying the cool airconditioner inside. Either way, the whole coffee shop was full of people who wanted a drink, preferrably as soon as possible by a cute waitress. Im Nayeon knew all about it. Even after having worked here for two years at least, she still didn't understand why people for God's sake wanted to go to a damned coffee shop if it was 35 degrees outside? To her, the pleasure that coffee brought could only be fully enjoyed in the middle of the winter, after you come home from a long walk that would leave your fingers numb. The coffee'd melt your insides and return the feeling to your frozen limps. How could people enjoy coffee well if the temperature was this high? Sure, they sold iced coffee as well and other beverages, but to Nayeon, it wasn't the same as Jihyo's well prepared damping hot coffee. Nothing was better than that. But she didn't complain, oh no. She was a shiftrunner, for God's sake, she needed to act professional and keep smiling. Give a good example for the younger employees. Only recently they had hired three new high schoolers, Dahyun, Chaeyoung and Tzuyu. All were only just learning the craft and sometimes had a lot of trouble getting through busy days like these. Nayeon was used to them now, but she had never liked them. There was not a good thing about it. Yeah, the money, the tips they got, but that didn't make up for the dozen whiny customers asking fore more ice in their iced tea. Suddenly, she felt two arms around her waist from behind. Another body — a taller body — was pressed up against hers. Nayeon let out a surprised gasp. Oh well, when she said there wasn't a good thing about it... There was always Jeongyeon. "Good morning, ma'am," the younger girl whispered in her year. Nayeon turned around in her arms and pretended to hit her. Jeongyeon ducked and protected her face with her hands. Nayeon rolled her eyes. "Don't do that around customers," she said, while letting her eyes quickly go over the restaurant to look if someone had seen them. Jeongyeon and her cheesy games. The brunette stood up straight again, grinning. "Didn't you love back hugs, unnie?" she asked innocentely. Nayeon lifted her head again to give her a stern look, and Jeongyeon flinched. Nayeon rolled her eyes, mostly because she had been adressed as 'unnie'. It had been a while since Jeongyeon had called her that way and really meant it. Nowadays the brunette only called her that to tease her because she was 'old'. "Not from you," she responded. Nayeon stack out her tongue and Jeongyeon pretended to be hurt by pouting. A chuckle left the other girl's lips as she admired Jeongyeon's natural cuteness. Jeongyeon and Nayeon had met exactly one year ago. Back then Jeongyeon had applied for a job in their kitchen. Besides coffee, the coffee shop also provided freshly baked goods, like cupcakes, waffles and cookies. On a good day, there were also selfmade candies. Nayeon had already been a waitress, but not a shiftrunner yet. Their first meeting had been uncomfertable and stiff, a simple handshake. In fact, Nayeon at first hadn't even liked Jeongyeon. The whole staff had seemed to be so smitten with the new girl; Momo wasn't able to be swatted away from her side anymore. Their boss, Jihyo, had also expressed her fondness with the ever-brightly brunette, complimenting her on her ever so bright behaviour. Sana and Mina often went home with her to catch up after work. Nayeon was the only one who hadn't liked her at first. She had never been fond of people who were as energetic as Jeongyeon was. But over time, she had started to appreciate the other girl. She might be loud as hell, but she was caring too. She made sure everybody's skirt was covering enough skin and always called Sana out on it — whose skirt, probably intentionally, seemed to creep up until a point where it was almost inappropriate. She was friendly, and gave everyone leftovers or pieces of her failed bakings. Jeongyeon was always the one leaving the restaurant the last and was the first one to show up in the morning. Even Nayeon had to admit that she was a person one couldn't just ignore and had to admire. Jeongyeon had showed interest in her since the beginning, even when Nayeon acted rather coldly. She was always trying to be friendly, perhaps a little more than with the other staff members, now that Nayeon thought of it. They had started to hang out more, but never with their collegues. Jeongyeon seemed to seperate her from the rest, always asking her to see a movie or play video games at her place when the others didn't seem to be able to come or just weren't invited. At first, it had been a little awkward, but Nayeon found herself liking it more and more. She noticed that she preferred Jeongyeon to be hers and only hers. She didn't want the other collegues to come because she wanted to feel special. Sometimes it seemed that Jeongyeon only treated her that way, but then Momo came along and Jeongyeon acted just as clingy with Momo as she was with her. Their one-on-one meet-ups made Nayeon forget all of that. It was on one of those little play dates where their first kiss had happened. They hadn't even drank alcohol or whatever. It had just been a quiet night watching the drama they had started together; Descendants of the Sun. They had laid on the couch together, enjoying each other's presence. Nayeon couldn't exactly remember how they had gotten on the subject of boyfriends and girlfriends, but the tension had risen. Only lateron Nayeon had realised that she had liked Jeongyeon all that time already, which was probably the reason why she hadn't broke off the kiss when Jeongyeon closed in. All that time she had thought that she wasn't special; but after the kiss, she realized she had been wrong all that time. It had been a thrilling experience. Nayeon had never kissed a girl before, nor had really thought about the concept sexuality. It all started to make sense though. Why she hadn't been in a relationship for many years, because she 'couldn't find the right guy'. Turned out that her Prince Charming had to be a Princess Charming to make it work. And it worked. Jeongyeon and Nayeon started to date. Secretely, yes, but it didn't take them a long time to come out for it. Nayeon was open minded and was quickly done with hiding once she had discovered that she liked girls. It had taken Jeongyeon a longer time to come out of the closet, but she had already been openly bisexual when she started working at the coffee shop. The other staff had reacted positively, even Nayeon's homophobic mother reacted better than she had been able to expect. They're still in a relationship right now. And even though Nayeon loved Jeongyeon with all her heart; it was rather bothering to get so distracted by her girlfriend during work. Now that Jeongyeon was a waitress too, it was hard enough to concentrate already. Even though they overall agreed that Nayeon was the fashionista, she couldn't help but to admire how good Jeongyeon's buttocks looked in tight dark blue jeans and how well her figures came out when she wore her white blouse. "Earth to Nayeon! That lady over there wants to pay!" Dahyun's voice woke her up from her thoughts. She blinked a few times fastly and looked over at the rookie waitress. She had her hair neatly in a ponytail, leaving the coloured strands of hair a little less visible. Nayeon thought it was a bit unprofessional, but she had to remind herself that the girl was still 18. She had also wanted to dye her hair crazy colours when she was 18. And not to forget, it looked really nice. "Oh, yes, of course," she muttered, before walking off. Her cheeks had flushed a little bit. Even though she and Jeongyeon were open about their relationship, it was still a bit emberassing to be caught staring at your girlfriend's ass. She quickly walked over to the lady and took care of the money. Afterwards, she helped the woman next to her, who wanted to order another iced coffee and a cupcake. Nayeon wrote it down and got inside to hand it over to Jihyo and Momo. The two baristas ran through the bar like their life depended on it, walking over to the coffee machine to set some coffee only to walk back to the other side to tap off some iced coffee. There were open jars of small marshmellows, sugar packages and little spoons, caramel sauce spilled over the working tables and coffee stains everywhere. It was chaos. But then again, they had never had such a day in a while. Jihyo took the note from Nayeon's hand and hung it up next to the other notes she had brought in the last quarter. "Chaeyoung, one cupcake please!" Jihyo yelled to small opening in the wall into the kitchen. Her voice was so loud that some people nearby looked up to see what's up. Chaeyoung's head popped up and she muttered a quick 'yes'. "Nayeon, the order for table 50 is almost ready, just wait a second," Momo said, while she took two coffee cups and placed them on a tray. She took the cacao powder and sprenkled some over the cups, before she ran off again to get spoons and whatever there was still missing. Nayeon never paid that much attention to the preparation; that was mostly Jihyo's job. She leaned against the counter, watching how Momo and Jihyo made the coffee, how Chaeyoung was decorating the cupcakes in the kitchen. That girl had some talent when it came to decorating, Nayeon thought, at the moment she felt two slender arms wrap around her waist, again. With a small yelp she let her noteblock fall on the ground. She heard a smirk. Jeongyeon. She turned around and placed her hands angrily on her hips, trying to act as if she wasn't actually very flustered with Jeongyeon's affection. Her girlfriend just grinned widely and pretended to know nothing. Nayeon huffed and pushed her away, but Jeongyeon came right back at her, this time throwing her arms around Nayeon's neck and pulling her closer. Her breath got caught in her throat when they were only inches apart. Jeongyeon knew better than to kiss her in public, but she sture made it really tempting. "Can you stop doing that?" Jihyo asked annoyedly, while she was preparing a large plate of cupcakes. She didn't even look up, but Nayeon noticed their boss was quite irritated. Jeongyeon rolled her eyes and let her arms fall by her side again. "As if it was so serious. I just hugged her," she said. Nayeon clicked dissaprovingly with her tongue, giving the brunette a warning look. You didn't want to cross Jihyo if she was mad. Their boss looked up and pushed a strand of dark red hair behind her ear. "No, indeed, but I know what you did in your break yesterday, and I'm not pleased about that," she shot back. "So I no longer want you and Nayeon to take breaks together." Nayeon's eyes widened in horror when she heard Jihyo's words. Her cheeks turned a dark shade of red. Jeongyeon, on the other hand, waved with her hand to show how little Jihyo's comment impact made on her. Nayeon opened her mouth to say something, but couldn't get anything out that mattered, except a small moan. "It was one time!" she said maladroit. Jihyo muttered something, which sounded a lot like a curseword, and turned back to her cupcakes. "Who wants to have sex on the toilet anyway? Where's the romance in that?" she mumbled. "Anyway, my decision has been made. You and Sana will now take breaks together and Jeongyeon and Momo. I don't want my employees fucking during work time." Jeongyeon and Momo high fived each other. "It was one time!" Nayeon repeated, this time a little louder. She covered her face with her hands and sighed deeply. She felt a familiar had on her shoulder. Nayeon didn't shake it off, but she was still mad. Jeongyeon defenitely didn't earn the trophee of 'best girlfriend' right now. "It was one time, but it was sure good," she heard her girlfriend say. A hard slap against her arm was the result, an annoyed look of Jihyo. At the moment Nayeon wanted to start bickering with Jeongyeon, Momo cleared her throat. "Your tray's ready, Nayeon. Table 50," Momo said. Nayeon shot Jeongyeon a we're-not-done-yet-look and took the tray on her right hand. She started walking towards the table. Jeongyeon got the plate of cupcakes for table 48 from Jihyo, walking after Nayeon. Nayeon smiled at the costumers of table 50 when she arrived. "A caramel iced coffee?" she asked. One of the girls raised her hand, and Nayeon placed it in front of her. She also gave out the two other coffee's, the waffle and two cupcakes. Afterwards, she quickly asked if they still needed something. All of them shook their heads, and Nayeon walked off again. She noticed how Jeongyeon had waited for her to walk back to the bar, since she had already delivered the plate with cupcakes. Nayeon shot her a little smile and joined her girlfriend on the way back, already a little less mad. "Yah, oppa! Can I get another refill?" Nayeon looked up, startled by the sudden hard voice and looked around. A customer — a woman late in her teens — had risen from her seat, lifting her emtpy coffee cup in the air. She looked into her direction, but not directly into Nayeon's eyes. She followed the woman's gaze and noticed she was actually looking at Jeongyeon instead. Oppa? Nayeon noticed how her girlfriend shifted uncomfertably; she had heard it too. The always cheeky smile had fadedvoff her face and it had gotten a serious expression; a hurted look appeared in her eyes. Annoyance started to rise in Nayeon's chest, and she held out her arm to stop Jeongyeon from walking over to the rude customer to give her a refill, as she commanded. She was going to deal with this. Nayeon put up a tight smile as she walked over towards the woman. Now that one of the employees was at her table, she sat down again, almost smitten. The other girl at the table had hidden her face out of embarassement. Nayeon bowed a bit foreward so she wouldn't have to talk loudly. "Excuse me, ma'am, but my collegue is a girl and if you want a refill, I propose you treat her as one," she said. Her nice tone had completely dissapeared from her voice, so did the brightness in her eyes. She looked at the woman coldly, almost hatefully, her voice had dropped low and a little bit threatening. The woman blinked a few times with her eyes and Nayeon wasn't sure if she was surprised about Nayeon's posture or the fact that Jeongyeon was actually a girl. Then, her eyebrows frowned together and she stubbornly placed her empty cup in front of Nayeon. A grin appeared on her face. She laughed, even. "She sure looks like an oppa then," she smirked. Nayeon's eyes widened when she heard the rudeness — or stupidity — of the woman. She cleared her throat roughly, trying to look for the right cursewords to throw at her. "She's not an-" she started, but her words got cut of by Jeongyeon, who pushed her roughly aside. Nayeon let out an angry 'Hey!'. "It's fine," the brunette mumbled to her, giving her an oddly timid look, almost pleading her to stop. Nayeon crossed her arms in front if her chest and looked at her girlfriend with a passive stubborn look. Oh, how much she wanted to explain to that woman that Jeongyeon was a girl, her girl and she wouldn't even care about being polite anymore. It had happened before that Jeongyeon was called an oppa and Nayeon could get so protective and mad about something like that. She couldn't understand why people thought it was funny to call her that, while she obviously was a girl. She had never seen her as a boy, even though her clothing style wasn't exactly too feminine too. She had always been a girl and will always be a girl and she really hated the people who made her feel like her identity wasn't valid. She understood why Jeongyeon wanted to handle it herself, but she was also mad at her for that. She brushed it off like it was nothing, even though Nayeon knew it hurted her a lot, and pretending you were fine didn't fool her alert gaze. She wanted to take some sort of revenge for her, because she didn't do anything about it. She always joked it off, saying she could indeed dress somewhat more feminine towards the customers who had insulted her. Nayeon couldn't agree on that, but there was little she could do when Jeongyeon started pleading with those big brown puppy eyes. So she huffed once more, spun around on her heels and stormed back. She didn't even respond at Momo who told her another tray was ready for table 43 and directly walked towards the employees room. It was a small room backstage, behind the kitchen where the staff could put their bags and other stuff and take their breaks. Nayeon got here too when she wanted to escape the restaurant a little bit. Sometimes it got too much. When she got too stressed or too angry, the took five minutes for herself, and calmed down. But at the moment, five minutes were probably not enough. After a few moments, the door opened. Nayeon looked up — worried that it'd be Jihyo — and saw Jeongyeon's head peek through. She sighed and shook her head for a moment. The brunette stepped in, almost guilty, and immediately walked over Nayeon. She seemed unsure what to do. Nayeon sensed she wanted to hug, but she defenitely didn't feel like it. She was angry with her, angry with that woman and angry with herself that she didn't do anything to protect Jeongyeon. And she wasn't scared to tell her so. "This is the third time, Jeongyeon," she scolded. She saw the other girl look down, ashamed. Nayeon went on nevertheless, not in the mood to spare her right now. "You let her walk over you like that, you almost gave her her right!" "She's a customer," Jeongyeon mumbled. Nayeon let out an annoyed moan. "So? Fuck it! It was rude and hurtful that she called you a boy. It was mean and she abused her power, knowing we as waitresses should always be nice and kind to customers like her!" Nayeon raged, using her hands furiously to idicate how much she meant it and how angry she was. Jeongyeon looked away, almost rolling her eyes. "What am I supposed to do then? Call her out on it like you did? We'd get in trouble with Jihyo," she said. "She's a client anyway and that she made a joke about my hair is something I can endure." "It wasn't just your hair and you knew it, Jeongyeon," Nayeon said. "I saw your face. She hurt you!" Jeongyeon looked away again and sighed, not being able to think of a good argument to prove Nayeon wrong. The comment had hurted but Jeongyeon wasn't the person to act all sad because of that. She had shrugged it off, apologized to the woman and filled her cup again. Afterwards, she just cleared her mind, forcing herself not to think of it anymore. It was cute the way Nayeon stood up for her, but she also felt like she was not pleasing her enough for standing up herself too. "So? I can handle it," she mumbled softly. Nayeon growned. "So?" she imitated childish in a voice that was way too high for hers. "So you need to fucking stand up for yourself! I won't let her call you a damned boy. You just shrugged it off like it wasn't hurtful! If no one is going to say something to that woman, she'll call you 'oppa' the next time she comes here again, thinking it's acceptable because she got her cup refilled anyway! I hate it that she's just able to do that." Nayeon breated loudly, was almost panting after her little speech. Jeongyeon was speechless, mostly because she already knew how her girlfriend felt and she shared her emotions, but just couldn't get herself to act upon then. It wasn't as easy for her as it was for Nayeon. The blackhead was tense and had gritted her teeth upon each other. Her angry gaze had softened a little, had almost grown sad. "It hurts you.." she repeated again, her voice smaller this time. It was soft, a little bit squeeky. Because it hadn't just hurt Jeongyeon, but Nayeon had also felt her heart ache when the comment was made. She was hurted knowing that Jeongyeon was hurted too. And she hated it that her girlfriend was hurt and she couldn't do anything about it. She wanted to protect her, to avenge her, to make her feel okay again. Nayeon looked down, not being able to look at the brunette anymore without breaking down in tears. She blinked a few times fast, trying to blink them away. After a few deep breaths, the urge to cry started to fade, but she knew that if she went on with talking, she'd sure burst out in tears. Jeongyeon caught her hand in hers and slowly carassed the back with her thumb. Nayeon kept looking down and took deep breaths to steady herself. She was a little bit shaky. Eventually, the brunette took her into a hug. Hugs with Jeongyeon were the best. She was the perfect height; Nayeon could lay her head upon her shoulder without having to reach down or look up. Her arms fit perfectly around her waist. Nayeon closed her eyes and buried her face deeper in the crook of Jeongyeon's neck. She breathed in the deep, wood-ish scent of her parfume and pressed her body even closer. Jeongyeon placed her hand upon her lower back. "I can't stand it that she hurted you," Nayeon whispered. "I know..." Jeongyeon whispered, while rubbing her back. "I know, jagi~." Nayeon exhaled slowly. Her body relaxed already a little bit, but she still couldn't lay herself down by the fact that Jeongyeon had been hurt and she wasn't able to do something. Okay, maybe she was a bit over reacting and incredibly protective, but she wanted her girlfriend to be happy. She couldn't stand it that some woman just had the authority to call her 'oppa' like that and get away with it. Nayeon knew Jeongyeon could handle a nasty comment and she believed her when she told her it didn't matter much, but that doesn't make up for it. Even if it only hurts a little bit, Nayeon wouldn't agree to just let it slide like that. She bit her lip and hugged the brunette a little tighter. Jeongyeon pressed a kiss upon her head. "You mean well, Nayeon-unnie, but you get a little extreme sometimes," Jeongyeon added jokily after a couple of minutes. "Are you okay again?" Nayeon sniffed and shrugged, letting Jeongyeon go. She looked up and pouted. "It shouldn't be about me!" she said. Jeongyeon grinned — she was glad to see that grin again — and shrugged for a moment. "I'm not the one crying," she laughed. Nayeon quickly whiped off her somewhat wettened eyes and gave her a punch. Jeongyeon just let her punch her, though did rub her arm afterwards, and chuckled. "I wasn't crying!" Nayeon complained. Jeongyeon wiggled her eyebrows and pulled her closer by her waist. Nayeon placed her hands upon her chest to block her a bit, but it was all in vain; she was already willingly stepping closer. Jeongyeon gave her a peck on her cheek, but didn't bow back. She stayed close and moved her mouth to Nayeon's ear. "It was really cute the way you stood up for me like that," she whispered. Her warm breath tickled Nayeon's skin. Goosbumps ran over her body, starting in her neck. Her breath got caught in her throat. Eventually she was able to let it out shakily. She pushed Jeongyeon back a bit, pouting again. The other girl looked at her smugly, knowing what she was doing to her girlfriend. Nayeon draped her arms over Jeongyeon's shoulders, let her fingers curl around the base of her hair. "Shut up, you," Nayeon sighed, before pulling her closer and issing her. Jeongyeon willingly bowed foreward and kissed her back, letting her hands rest on Nayeon's hips. Their lips had only touched for a few seconds when the door to the employee room smashed open. "You two can come out now. Jihyo has set the woman who insulted Jeongyeon here out of the restaurant," Sana's voice sounded. The two looked up quickly. The kiss ended too soon, to Nayeon's liking, but she had to admit that this wasn't the right time to get it on. The restaurant was crowded with people and now that Nayoen and Jeongyeon had hidden themselves in the employees room for ten minutes already, they had two important waitresses missing. Sana couldn't handle it alone. Dahyun and Tzuyu were probably panicking now. Jeongyeon grabbed Nayeon's hand and gave it a slight pinch. The blackhead looked up and smiled towards the taller girl. "Let's go then," she said. Sana rolled her eyes and signed they should follow her. As expected, the bar was full of filled trays that needed to be brought immediately to tables. Jihyo gave them an angry look when the three waitresses came back. "Jeongyeon, Sana, the left tray to table 15 please and the other to 40. Hurry, the coffee is getting cold, you rascals," she said annoyedly. Jeongyeon gave Nayeon one least look, before grabbing the tray and walking off quickly. Nayeon wanted to get the third tray, which Momo had just finished filling. She had already lifted it upon her hand when Jihyo shook her head. "No, Nayeon, you stay here for a moment," she said. Nayeon blinked confusedly, but let the tray slide of her hand again, back onto the bar. She cocked her head a little to the left, like a lost puppy. Jihyo didn't look up from her work, and neither seemed to mind that Momo was here too and probably listening along. "I appreciate it that you take care of Jeongyeon like that, but please, Nayeon, just call me the next time. I'm the manager, I can set her out. You don't need to harass her first for that. I set her out, because Tzuyu came to tell me what had happened. I don't appreciate it that customers talk to my employees like that. We need to treat them with respect but they should be respectful towards us too. So next time you tend to loose your temper for your girlfriend, come to me and I'll handle it," Jihyo said strictly, still not looking in her direction. She just went on with preparing trays. Nayeon couldn't help but to smile though. Jihyo was often busy and sometimes a bit cranky because of that, but she was an amazing manager. She had helped her countless of times and today was one of those times. Jihyo really had a big heart when it came down to it. It even seemed a bit motherly sometimes. "Thank you," she said smiling. Jihyo's ever so busy hands stopped for a moment, and she looked up. A big smile appeared on hers too. She didn't need to say anything for Nayeon to understand her. Jihyo let out a short sigh, before she finally pushed a tray full of iced coffees in her direction. "Now get your lazy ass to work, this one needs to go to table 6," she said. Nayeon chuckled and took the tray on her hand. "Yes, ma'am," she said, before walking off. For the rest of the day, there was always a faint smile upon her face.
