since we're talking about call outs lately, i've been called out many times, most of which are made from lies and sometimes by altering screenshots, but the most effective call out i ever got was like, in early 2015 there was a tumblr user everyone knew was a terf, but she would say "actually i support trans women" this was before crypto terfs were as talked about so the language wasn't really there to say "hey this person is a crypto terf." but yeah some people put posts of this woman on my dash and i made a random post on my blog "why do yall reblog her shes a terf" and of course she searches her own name daily, found my post, and replied to it that me calling her a terf was racist. that was it. no other interaction. but she went on all night talking about me being racist and just making things up as she went "oh i bet she says the n word all the time irl" kind of shit that had, like no basis? But her follower base took it 100% and i literally had thousands of anons telling me to kill myself, trying to goad me into being racist (didnt work), and the most concerning thing was i got hundreds of anons being like "what was the point of doing hrt if you still look like that, you should kill yourself." It was like, violent and overwhelming. and on top of it I'd get random young teenager trans people who followed her and bought into her bioessentialism showing up in my messages being like "you give trans people a bad name" "you're why transphobia exists" etc etc it was fucking crazy.
but i lost like, no followers because everyone around me understood, this woman was a terf. this all set up the real one though.
later in the year a teenage "communist" trans girl made some snarky comment about me being racist on a post of mine blowing up. i ignored her cuz like, who cares it's just some random teenager. but i guess people were looking for a reason to hate me cuz that blew up, lots of people just took that at face value no need to investigate. when someone finally did send the girl an ask being like "hey how is she racist" she replied "I dont remember but I know she is" and even more people just took this as 100%. the thing is, i do remember her being one of those "you make trans people look bad" terf following young trans people, it's not that she didn't remember, it's that she didnt want to admit she followed a terf and she believed a terf just saying shit. I lost like 3/4s of my followers, i had a lot of people i thought were my friends just stop talking to me, and going forward every time i got a call out there would usually be a line of like "also she's racist, everyone already knows this" all cuz this girl needed to make a snarky comment cuz she just loves terfs.
the thing about the "i dont remember" bit is it made some weird game of telephone. "I dont remember" became "oh she's racist, i think she says the n word" which became "she called black bloggers the n word" like people just made shit up about me and connected it to this call out. and when id be like this isnt true id be met with a "this is just known, youre a known racist" and it's like, to this day i will still find people be like "hey good on you for growing as a person and not doing that any more" and its like I NEVER DID IT TO BEGIN WITH

I know your a Thomastair blog but hope you keep an open mind. I dont like them together because Alastairs got such trauma and isnt ready for relationship. Thomas is passive and wont stand up for himself. I think theres potential (like in a few years) but not now.
Wow I normally would not respond to this but I have had a really bad day and am in a really bad mood and this is a horrible, horrible flex. You're coming dangerously close to "people with PTSD can't be in healthy relationships and don't deserve to be," and I am not okay with it, actually.
Alastair is... actually an extremely mature person. He's compassionate and loving, and he's way more than just "such trauma." His leaving Thomas at the end of ChoI was a testament to that maturity and to the fact that he loves Thomas and wants the best for him. Unconditionally. Even if that doesn't involve him.
He's also selfless as fuck and gave up his entire life for Cordelia. Following Thomas alone with a serial killer on the loose was a huge act of love considering that he and Thomas weren't even on good terms at the time. He dropped everything to help Matthew, who he had high-level animosity with, quit drinking. He offered to let Belial "squish him like a bug" so Cordelia would have someone to die with. Like, dude. Come on. Please take a step back from the 'omg scool buly !1!!1!!!1!!" mentality. It's very 2015 in the worst possible way.
This ask undermines the entire storyline that Alastair was given in ChoT, which I thought was beautifully executed. HE IS NOT WHERE HE COMES FROM. HE IS NOT JUST THE PAIN HE HAS ENDURED. HE CHOOSES WHAT HE IS, AND HE IS WORTH IT. If you did not get that, I don't know what to tell you. You missed the entire point of his story. You missed the entire point of his character.
And Thomas not standing up for himself... what!? Thomas isn't some poor helpless innocent. Thomas is actually really smart and one of his biggest character traits is that he's willing to stand up for both others (Matthew in NBS and Alastair forever) AND HIMSELF!
Thomas is not passive! He literally asked Alastair why he sniped at everyone he met IN PARIS before their relationship started. He stood up to Matthew in NBS when he told him that Alastair's friend died! He stood up for himself at the end of ChoG AND subsequently threatened to make good on his threat to throw Alastair into the Thames!!! He stood up for himself again in the Sanctuary. He confronted Alastair about moving/refusing to be with him in ChoT. COME ON. He's no more passive than the average person!!! He's actually pretty assertive despite being shy/quiet! He's not a woobie!!!
THE BEST THING ABOUT THOMASTAIR IS THAT THEY BOTH SEE EACH OTHER. THOMAS FULLY SEES AND FULLY UNDERSTANDS ALASTAIR'S TRAUMA, AND HE LOVES HIM NOT DESPITE THAT BUT BECAUSE IT'S PART OF WHO HE IS. PART OF WHAT MAKES HIM UP, BUT NOT THE ONLY THING. THEY HELP EACH OTHER HEAL.
This ship is for anyone who has ever thought "oh, I am too traumatized to be loved." This is literally its intended audience. This is the point. It baffles me how someone could not see that.

20 Questions for Fic Writers
ty for the tag @unpredictable-probabilities! I don't usually do tag things but I'm feeling an exception today and I want to ramble lol let's GO!!
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
Right now, 51! I think i started using ao3 back in college with rvb fic lol. I've since orphaned 2 fics so I guess there wouldve been 53.
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
86,956
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Right now, mostly just Twisted Wonderland (and the occasional dndads, I still have a fic in my brain I kinda wanna write for that). Twst was kinda my comeback to wanting to write fics and has been my main inspiration for a lot of things and it's been the most fun i've had writing fics I think, and it's eventually what's gotten me to try to write my first multi chapter fic.
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
1. Slip Ups and Lift Ups (Stardew Valley) 444 Kudos 2. A Fishy Intervention (TWST) 354 Kudos 3. Company (TWST) 249 Kudos 4. Security Cauldron (TWST) 248 Kudos [my first twst fic i think? also has some errors in it teehee oopsie] 5. Because I Care (TWST) 234 Kudos
5. Do you respond to comments?
Yes!!! I think I didn't used to? Maybe because I felt weird about my own comments changing the comment count and like it was somehow lying lol. but that's silly and i like talking to people and I Need people to Know that i Love Their Comments
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
hmmm I do not write much angst, and even when I do it's more hurt/comfort, bc permasads make ME permasad. I think it was my rvb fic "forgotten" - which i always forget was my first fic uploaded to ao3 LOL, back in 2015. ironic that my first wasnt reflective of the tone i usually write for. i don't wanna reread it to check [even tho my fics from back then are WAY shorter] bc im scared to face how i wrote when i was fresh outta hs lol BUT if i remember correctly/based on the summary, it was a doc/donut fic and I think it was about how after doc had disappeared from the future cube or whatever in canon and no one knew he was gone, i wrote a scene of doc getting upset with donut bc Of All People Why Didnt You Notice I Thought I Meant Something To You 😔 kdlsjfkdlsj i think it ended with doc walking off and donut being SAD and idk maybe they broke up, idr if they were 'officially dating' in the context of that fic. but um hashtag docnut for life.
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
most all of my fics are happy endings with an exception of like one ^ or two lol. I don't know if i can quantify those!
8. Do you get hate on fics?
not to my face if I do lol. I don't think enough people know about me to give a shit if i do stuff they dont like
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
nope!!!! i dont really like smut personally and it's not the kind of genre i have story ideas for.
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
I don't think i've ever done that 🤔
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
not that I know of!
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
not that I know of!
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
nope!
14. What’s your all time favourite ship?
girl help i cannot choose. um. well first shout out again to rvb's docnut bc u will always be strong and married in my heart. and in dndads im an oakworthy truther til i die BUT for twst. twst beloved twst i am in that pitfall of i like 50000 different ships. jamiazu is the one i write and draw the most LOL and theyre def a top fave HOWEVER. god. treycater alters my brain chemistry. rookvil marriage real. adeuce beloved fool duo for life. im physically restraining myself from mentioning more KLFJDSKLFJS especially when we get into the multiship/poly web bc god we will be here all day. i can and will be enabled but this post is already long enough GOODBYE!!!!
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
oooh ok well there was a dndads oakworthy thing I started like last year but pretty soon after I started it, we started seeing more of hermies forbidden other 'true' personality traits and i was like ruh roh this guy keeps pulling a fast one on me, i dont think the direction i had with this fic is fitting anymore. i had barely gotten anywhere with it and it wouldve been short anyway, but i think about what couldve been.... lololol and then for TWST umm. Hehe. Teehee even. Back during nanowrimo I used that as time to start 2 fics: kalim and the great relationship rescue, which is my current multichap fic about kalisil and jamiazu, it’s got about 3 chapters, and I’m still writing it. AND IM STILL GOING TO FINISH THAT ONE!!! but the OTHER one I started during that time and have NOT posted any of it yet was the stuff with my first twst oc, Char, and his place in my big caterella multiverse ideas lol. I’ve posted a bit about that story idea and done a lot of doodles and brianstorming for it, but I fear it would be too intimidatingly ambitious to stick to and I’m not sure writing one concrete fic is the right medium for it 🤔 plus I just don’t think many people would like it much LOL it would be very self indulgent and tapping into my soap opera brain. I feel nervous when I talk about it HAHDBFNTG so I’m not sure I could commit. But I still have what I wrote, and maybe I’ll figure out another way to go with it or maybe I’ll just wake up one day and say WHATEVER and write it anyway lol. I’ve gotten shyer again so we’ll see 🧍
16. What are your writing strengths?
umm. i do not know if it is a strength but i feel more light comedy and dialogue come more 'naturally' to me, but i do not know how well i actually can pull it off LOL also shorter, contained stories. Everything I write is a one shot, and I’m struggling on my recent attempt at a multiple chapter fic BDBFFBFNGD
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
hrhrnrngm more descriptive writing, i find im in the pitfalls of writing TOO MUCH dialogue. and i also feel like when i try to do more serious tone things it comes off as cringe or trying too hard kFDKLSHFLDSJ. no one's said that to me but yknow. fear and whatnot. also ending the story is. Hard. I feel like that’s always a weak part of my fics bc I sit there like WELL I WROTE ALL MY IDEAS HOW DO I WRAP THIS UP…. I worry my endings come off kind of half assed but I do my best lol 😔✌️
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
like are you asking if i would do it? or how i feel when it's done in fics i read? i dunno lol. i could maybe do spanish bc ive studied it a lot but i'd get nervous i think.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
on ao3 it was rvb bu teeeechnically back in my neoseeker forums days i was in there writing like, animal crossing or harvest moon or pokemon stuff. it was very bad bc i was like 10 years old LOL
20. Favourite fic you’ve written?
ohoho ummmm. Well I always have fun writing jamiazu and I’ve written a LOT of those lol. I have a soft spot for The Comfort of Familiarity. That’s one of the ones hats taken me the longest to write because I was really trying hard to handle it with care, as it was a less light tone than I typically do and I was trying to explore the characters and their situation in a particular way that I really wanted to come across well with who reads it. It was hard, and I’m not sure I fully got there, but ultimately I did like it quite a a bit. on the flipside, one of my more recent fics and I think now my longest oneshot to date, Blue Raspberry Mango was VERY fun to write lol. That one’s a lot more like what I typically write, silly romcom style lmao. Cater and Idia goofing, characters bickering, friendship, me trying to sneak in as many side ships into the background for funsies, jamiazu is there, it was a good time. And that one started as a prompt suggestion which I feel like often times I end up struggling with and not delivering super well… but this one ran away from me and I had a blast lol. Idikei fixed me 😌✌️
Ty for tagging me! Umm. I am too scared to tag other people 🧍 goodbye jk @officialgleamstar 🫵 You Do It
[sorry if I missed any typos or autocorrect, part of this was on my phone and I always miss SOMETHING lol]

I need to know why and how you were anti-phannie from 2014-2016
alright here we go i get to talk about THIS shit now.
i was generally anti-rpf at that point, and honestly? i think it was for fair enough reasons as some people were a bit too eager about showing (general) youtubers stories they wrote about them sucking and fucking their friends. i think i was also pretty high and mighty about being a somewhat oldhead phannie tbh, like ugh do these gaming-channel-only people even know about dan being super edgy and offensive 🙄 and lowkey it was a lot of subtly misogynistic "i'm not like other girls" type shit like i was sooo much better than yall cuz i hadn't watched that video (yet.)
i was generally not into these sorts of fandoms to begin with. i wasnt on the superwhopotterlock side, i was on the homestuck/dangan ronpa/anime of the month side of tumblr, if that gives you an idea of what i was like lol. around 2014-15 i was very much in a community that is kinda similar to what you might see on twitter now, where if you had any interests in media that portrayed anything problematic, that means you are in full support of that problematic thing. if dan howell said something racist in 2010, it doesn't matter that he wasn't being racist in 2015 he's still racist and liking him makes you a racist etc. and of course, rpf is included in problematic topics. if you ship real people, even if said people say they don't mind it, you are a sick pervert and you should be in the loony bin for being so depraved. and if you write or read any fiction that has immoral acts, it means you support those acts in real life too and you are trying to normalize abuse and SA (yknow as if whitecishetpatriarchy hasnt normalized that enough) and you're a danger to children and you deserve to rot in prison (yknow as if a queer person writing stories about queer people hasnt heard that one before)
now here's the real kicker. in 2015-2017 i ran a game grumps fan blog where i did talk about shipping the grumps. "wait how were you anti-rpf if-" well have you ever heard of this thing called Lying? or perhaps even, Cognitive Dissonance? i HAD to run a separate blog for this interest, because if my friends knew i consumed slashfic about arin and danny they would stop being friends with me and think im this evil horrible monster etc. genuinely that was where my brain was at, and is a little bit the reason i decided to this day, to make my phannie accounts completely separate from my main accounts.
nowadays, none of my non-phannie friends actually give a fuck and i do occasionally talk about dnp being silly gay white boys w them! at this point i dont post about em on main just out of respect like "hey im sure you dont actually want to hear about british yaoi constantly regardless of our level of friendship so i'll keep it over here okay?"
also, yeah i grew out of thinking consuming media with deplorable acts makes me deplorable. my favorite tv show is hannibal. i know its shocking, but i dont actually support serial killer cannibals. i will say, i dont fuck with "pro/anti" language with regards to what is considered "problematic" or having that be an identity marker. i think that people are free to write fiction as they please so long as its all properly tagged for people who dont enjoy that kind of content to avoid. but i also think there can be and often are problems in the way these stories are written, and yeah if all the romance stories you read growing up involve some sort of force or danger, that CAN normalize this sort of action as inherent to romance stories/real life romance. but i think thats an issue with like, society at large, and it's not on an individual fic writer to be educating teens who read their dead dove fic despite the explicit rating and tags.
TL;DR: BASICALLY. I WAS A DUMBASS KNOW-IT-ALL BUT DW I GOT BETTER.

btw i'm watching the 100 for the first time in my life but i remember the hype on the internet in like 2015 about this serie
i have Thoughts (just started 3rd season so this is about seasons 1 and 2)
everyone is fucking stupid. like really really stupid. i cant believe humanity survived for 97 years
clarke is smart but also very very stupid. why is a 17 yo in charge
raven is smart, not too stupid. i forgive her
john murphy is the funniest character ever
i remembered there was lesbians but i didnt know who the lesbians were. at first i thought they were clarke and raven bc they fight over a white boy so i thought i would be funny if they were The Lesbians
lexa can step on me
its cool lexa is canonically bi but i cant believe she fell for clarke. lexa deserves better. clarke is too stupid for her
the grounders are RIGHT. they are FUCKING RIGHT. SINCE EPISODE 1. they are NOT stupid
i called finn "white boy" during all the serie. he's such a white boy. he's very very stupid. i'm glad he died and i hated when the sky people wanted to save him from the execution bc THE GROUNDERS WERE RIGHT HE HAD TO DIE. he killed 18 FUCKING DEFENSELESS ELDERS AND CHILDREN
i miss anya. she was such a badass. clarke: "nuuuh i need a sharp and sterile knife-" anya proceeds to BIT HER OWN ARM to get the chip out. 10/10 character
about the mountain weather arc: oh my god they are so stupid. mountain people are so stupid i mean. "ohh we need sky people's bone marrow so we can survive but theres only 47 of them so in order to take all the bone marrow for us they have to die" you know how they could handle this shit?? by fucking ASKING. they KNEW there were other sky people on the ground now. like at least 100 of them i think. so they should have gone to them and say, "hi sorry we are humans who have to live underground bc radiations. but your bone marrow could save us. so can all of you give us a bit of your bone marrow? we offer an alliance and other commodities (medicines etc)". imo sky people would say YES bc bone marrow grows back its not too dangerous to donate it if its just a bit. everybody would be alive by now. and i wouldnt have got a headache
still about mountain weather arc: another way to handle that would have been: asking the 47 kids a bit of their bone marrow and WAITING it to grow back. like donators in real life yk? by 2 years all of the mountain people could have gone on the surface and everybody would be alive now and i wouldnt have got a headache
marcus kane is also a very funny character. hes desperately trying to die since they flowed those 320 people on the arc. and i LOVE he CANT die. everytime he's like "omg finally im going to die" and someone saves him. im sure as soon as he thinks "ok maybe being alive is not so bad" he gets shot
mountain weather arc is truly the most stupid thing that every happened in a tv show. they chose the worst possible way to handle the problem. they acted more stupidly than the kids in season 1. i really cant believe humanity survived for 97 years
the "100" on the spaceship were NEVER exactly one hundred. bc bellamy got inside so they were 101. but during the landing 2 kids died. so they were 99. there is not a single moment in this serie called "the 100" were they are one hundred. this fact is driving me crazy
i truly hope everyone dies bc i hate almost all of them. the only people that imo are allowed to survive are: octavia, jasper, monty, raven, murphy, kane (bc its funny he cant die), and all of the grounders. other peoples are too stupid to live so i hope they die soon so i dont get other headaches (edit: bellamy is on thin ice bc hes funny but hes also very much stupid)
i cant believe mountain weather arc. oh my god it was so stupid

okay heres the rosquez history™️ im fully copying this from dms i sent my bff so- do not judge how it looks. i am truly sorry for this monstrosity and that you have to read it
okay so vale dominated the mid-2000s, he has 9 world titles, 7 from motogp (or 500cc back then) marc is uhhh 14 years younger i think? and he looked up to vale. like a lot. (he mightve had a poster of vale in his bedroom growing up)
and then marc starts riding in moto3 and moto2 and its like ‘holy shit that kid is so good’ but also he’s insanely aggressive ?? like so aggressive that he essentially develops a new riding style. and around that time there are a bunch of riders in motogp, namely vale and jorge lorenzo (who marc DID ACTUALLY have a poster of i think) telling marc to calm down and ride cleaner.
in 2013 marc moves up to motogp and life is good for him!! so good!! he becomes the youngest race winner ever and then the youngest motogp champion ever and hes like in love with vale and keeps making heart eyes at him but thats ok!! bc vale makes heart eyes at marc all the time too.
so in 2013 and 2014 everything is great 🫶🫶 theyre in love, vale invites marc to the ranch, blablabla theyre gay whatever. but then 2015 it all goes to shit
marc has a bunch of retirements so it becomes pretty clear that hes not winning the title again. but vale is very much in title contention (hes fighting jorge) plus marc and vale have fought like a lot of times on track and uhhh… things arent that great between them? but whatever bc at least its still cordial. until sepang where they’re fighting again and marc crashes and oops!! it looks like vale kicked marcs bike. vale gets a back of the grid penalty for the crash and he cant recover from that so jorge wins the 2015 title! and from that point marc and vale hate. each other. vale thinks that marc fought him so hard bc he didnt want vale to be champion/wanted a spanish rider to be champion and obvi marc is mad about the kick/alleged crash.
in 2016 they seem to make peace for a lil while? but then in 2018 argentine theyre fighting again. and like i said marc is really aggressive so he kind of crashes vale out? ( im biased towards marc he can do no wring sorry) and after the race marc goes over to vales motorhome to apologize but uccio (vales bff/truck driver/idrk hes just always there) sends marc away. vale later says that he did it bc he knew it wasnt a genuine apology ?
yeah and from that point on they just dont talk. they hate each other for a while, sure, but that fades to a dislike, and dislike fades into indifference and they just do not. care anymore
also there are a lot of other moments like the infamous handshake press interview thing, but also they apparently shook hands in private later? and them in 2020 marc crashes, misses a season, comes back in 2021 for like half a season, then vale retired blablabla they just don’t interact anymore but motogp still liked making them sit awkwardly next to each other in press conferences. uhh yeah that’s basically it but marc did talk abt vale recently and he talked abt how vale had a giant impact on the sport and also he said that he wouldnt act differently in 2015 bc vale was the one who lost his temper 💀💀
omg they really are strangers to hero worship to friends to lovers to enemies to reluctant colleagues with history to enemies again to strangers what the fuck. what is in motorsport water that makes men act like this

the worst part about the information-social media ecosystem rn is that we’ll have, like, people will support Thing. then you’ll have an anti-Thing market emerge. and then you have the anti-anti-Thing market. backlash to backlash, dust to dust.
the current thing with this is “wokeness”, a word I hate more than I hate ranch dressing. the problem with the anti-anti-woke guys is that they generally don’t acknowledge that socialists have been critiquing identity politics for decades before the first conservative ever uttered the word “woke”. and ignoring the criticisms of this from the left strikes me as not engaging with the skeptics’ strongest argument by pretending they don’t exist. I get that the socialists arguing this are generally smarter than Gary from Facebook, which makes them harder targets. either way. I just don’t like this very much. it’s shallow.
that preamble out of the way, I was watching YouTube video from someone on team anti-anti. I’m not sure why I keep doing this because I always get disappointed for the same reasons, but some may call it masochism and I dont appreciate being non-sexually kink shamed.
the person in the video brought up nerdy youtube film critics who were angry about the Star Wars sequel trilogy as a pet example, but I feel like this is a really weak point. the sequel trilogy is done now, and knowing how poorly it played out, we may have to admit that the bitter nerds who said that it starred a woman and two men of color as just a cyclical marketing decision might have seen something we did not. they did basically nothing with oscar isaac and john boyega which is so. imagine signing them to your movie and doing nothing with these amazing actors! felony! go to jail! at least boyega has the good sense to be openly critical of this. and as for rey, she doesn’t exactly have an arc.
I rewatched the force awakens for the first time in a long time in a while a few months ago and, now that we’re out of the cultural moment it was released in, it feels very different. very 2015 pilled in the sense that it aged like milk that's been sitting in the fridge for 8 years and has begun to cultivate bacteria that no microbiologist has ever observed. and i don't think the bitter nerds were wrong to interpret kylo ren as a strawmen of, well, people like them who don't want people messing with a franchise they have a lot of emotional investment in. and while you can write this off as them saying "we don't want women to enjoy star wars", observing that these movies are ultimately products, disney aspires to have a larger net worth than god, and not trusting where they're going with this... it's not entirely unfair, even though there are very real problems of racism and misogyny in nerd circles.
sometimes when we defend stuff from the angle that representation is good, we inadvertently forget that the "you can be a jedi too, little girl or black child of unspecified gender" thing is mostly done with the intention of consumer outreach because we're biased in favor of rep. the bitter nerds are not, and it gives them shinigami eyes. pandering is a bit more obvious when you're not the one being catered to. or something. i also don't think this is exclusively right wing, it's just that a lot of lefties are more reluctant to say something. if you phrase yourself incorrectly, it looks REALLY sketchy, even if you frame it through the "ultimately, these are products" lens, and sometimes it's best to just not comment.
i saw critical drinker, who's one of the more annoying of these youtube film critic types, on a podcast semi recently, and when he drops the anti-woke kayfabe, you just see a frustrated guy who writes screenplays as a hobby and doesn't like how many female-led stories skimp on developing conflict, or the disappearance of the mentor/student dynamic in storytelling and why this is doesn't bode well for franchise reboots that are meant to pass the torch, how unearned that feels. and even though i think his videos are cringey as shit, they're coming from a real place of caring about stories and being frustrated that the biggest purveyors of them don't seem to care back. i'm sympathetic to this, even if i think "wokeness" is an intellectually lazy copout and the preferred method of delivery makes me want to get my eardrum pierced.
iunno. i think, maybe, if you want to talk about these guys, it would make for a better story if you talked to them. or at the very least, try to understand what the substantive meat of their problem is as a fly on the wall. even if you ultimately decide that they're being irrational, "irrational" is not synonymous with "random". that's an important thing not to lose sight of. and while i do believe a lot of the anti-woke stuff is irrational, i do think it's worth trying to make a real effort to figure out what's going on underneath it all. but thinking too much gives you wrinkles, or whatever malibu stacey said. oh well!

Interesting question...what happens when/if Jikook finally reveal themselves as a couple/married? What will those obsessed people do? (The ones who are obsessed with proving they are a couple although they don't give a damn about them?) Are they capable of moving on to something else? Because then the mystery is gone and their reason for trying so damn hard to prove Jikook is a couple is gone - then what? What do people with that kind of mindset do after?
Don't you ever wonder?
Just to be clear, are you asking if i think about the obsessed jikookers who seem to be in it for their own gratification?
Short answer:
No, i dont really think about them.
Tumblr media
I have had a few encounters with people who seem to think about nothing else. Although I try to avoid the sassaeng-level obsessed people, truthfully i can also be a little single minded... I'm ND and have trouble with moderation.
(I spent an inordinate amount of time during covid, watching grainy fancams from 2015, to fill a void in my life and a gap in my understanding of how their relationship developed)
But i know that being wholy consumed by any one thing is a little unhealthy, so for my own mental well-being I try to have some balance.
However, now i AM thinking about them now, so back to your question 😁
Tumblr media
Will people who don't reallly care about jikook move on, if they don't have anything prove/fight for?
If they are the type to always go looking for something to brawl over, then i guess they will move on. And good riddance. Jikook doesn't need supporters who are only there to stir up drama.
I think there are also those agressive and obsessed jkkrs and tkkrs who would continue to throw poop at each other even if jikook livestreamed their wedding and had Tae as their best man. Those people may not really care about JM and JK in particular but they will NEVER GIVE UP on PRINCIPLE.
Jikook doesn't need supporters like that either, imo.
Tumblr media
But what about those of us who do care about them and their happiness?
Will people who are obsessed with proving the relationship and who do genuinely care also move on?
These are the jkkrs who want to bask in the glow of true love, but also like to fight a good fight.
Will they lose interest if they don't have the obsessive need to prove the naysayers wrong?
My guess is no, because the joy of watching jikook together is euphoric in itself. Their obvious adoration and the care and dedication give us reasons too smile.
But they might miss the good ol' days of slapping back at tkkrs or high-fiving their jkkr friends when they cut down a toxic solo with a well timed caustic response. (That is kinda gratifying, let's be honest.) They might miss the detective work and in depth analysis of every bit of footage.
So maybe also yes. They might need a new adventure. I'm not saying they will stop caring about jikook, but i think they may seek out a new cause to fight for. As a side interest 😉.
Tumblr media
Then again, if jikook DID come out, all hell would break loose. Jikook crusaders (said fondly) would have new banners to gather under because fires would be burning on every front. Many of us - even the quiet ones on the sidelines - would probably be fighting for them.
In fact if they did come out, i think (hope) those of us who have been interested but not entirely invested (and definitely not obsessed with proving anything) would rise up too.
Jikook don't really need us now, but they will need us if it ever happens. And i hope that we - the reservists let's call ourselves - will be prepared to fight. Just like JK was when Yoongi whacked that shuttlecock at JM.
Tumblr media
As for me, I would stand shoulder to shoulder with all and any supporters to defend them. And I truly hope all armys, but especially the Jimin and Jungkook biased armys, would rally behind them under a rainbow flag. Because tkkrs arent the real enemy imo. They are just sad, angry people with no idea what true love looks like.
The real enemies are the bigots who hold power, and the institutionalised homophobia that threatens their safety, career and happiness.
And because that last paragraph was a bit of a downer, here are some things to warm your heart...

Tumblr media
Im so sorry @jils-things but you made me want to go on a tangent about art supplies in a bit cuz I'm a nerd andhekqkwkdjwoqo i lov u pls dont go away- 😭
Anyway yes I usually make a very light sketch with my pencil so that I could erase it easily for me to retrace it but I am here to make a very important public announcement and I feel that it is my duty to inform the public on something that could be beneficial to the society.
Behold: Kneading Eraser
Tumblr media
This fucker have multiple names; Putty eraser, gummy eraser, kneaded eraser,clay. It's going through a phase, please don't judge it, let it change name every 10 seconds.
What I need is that I want everyone to put everything down and listen to what I say: You run to the art store, Michael's, Art Friend, soup store, whatever store you get your art supply at. You ask the store clerk you want a putty eraser and if they dont give you a putty eraser, tell them they're a loser in malay (it's mak kau hijau. The more your learn folks) and then go to the next store and find a putty eraser until you get them. Its not expensive, it cost me less than 2 bucks for 1 pack of putty eraser.
Why you may ask? Well, I can assure you as someone who draws, putty eraser is much much MUCH better than a normal generic eraser.
First of all, there's no dust. When you erase a line with this boy, there wont be any rubber shit nugget clumping on the table and making a mess on your bed (i know you hate your spine too and likes to draw on bed i live in ur walls u guys better sleep with 1 eye open). I'm so serious like I have 0 eraser shavings in my house since I use a putty eraser. Please stop sleeping covered in eraser shavings.
It's also malleable. You can literally shape it to whatever shape that you want so you could erase a a tiny spot that you couldn't reach without disturbing other lines. And it works sooooo well as a stress ball or a toy. People actually knead it into animal shape. Can you shape a normal rectangle eraser into a giraffe? CAN YOU? DO YOU SEE MY POINT?
Tumblr media
Do you suffer from loneliness? Do you need a conversation opener? Are you tired of kneading an eraser to shape it into a friend? Believe it or not, putty eraser is a great conversation starter when you dont want to start a conversation! As a personal anecdote: whenever I sketch in school, if anyone I know sees me sketching, they will always ask me what the fuck is the clay thing I use to erase my lines and then I have to explain to them what is a kneadable eraser and then whenever I demo'd the eraser, an amusing OOOOOOO will come out and they will play with my eraser for like 5 mins. Am I mad that my eraser is taken away? No because the eraser can also be s e p e r a t e d . Black magic fuckery. Please go buy a putty eraser.
Anyway for the pencil, I swear to god if you ever get this pencil, you will never use a normal mechanical pencil ever again.
Tumblr media
The pencil I'm using is called a drafting pencil, specifically Pentel Graphgear 500. There's tons of drafting pencil in the market but just look at this one because other's are expensive and you will cry. This pencil had a plastic body but the base is made of metal so its pretty heavy. It feels v e r y c o m f o r t a b l e on the hand, like the moment you hold it, you will believe that this is how mechanical pencil suppose to be. It just fits so perfectly with the contour of you finger. The weight feels so nice on your hands and the grip is very comfortable. The pencil sleeve also doesnt budge so you don't and won't have any issue of lead breakage (unless you press your pencil really hard)
Tumblr media
It's also very long-lasting. I have 2 of them in my pencil case. The one on the left were bought in 2021 from Muji. The one on the right were bought in 2015. It still works fine despite being 8 years old. I don't think I ever have any mechanical pencil that is long lasting like this one. This is legit one of the product that I would say would last a lifetime if you take care of it well.
This ends my sleepy deprivation fueled post for today.
TL;DR: Please go buy kneaded eraser and a drafting pencil I am on my knees rn-

ok. i took a long, long time (song ref) but hi!!!!!!!!!
1. titanic fic (*cue shit-eating grin*). umum. im curious if there's anything about the morse code yet. or codes in gen actually. so. sentences with the word "code" :3
2. titanic vid!!!! Idk if you like the engineering aspects, but there still were a ton of other facts sprinkled in (spiral staircases, people that monitored coal balance, separate staff room for firemen, how they got air down there etc) https://youtube.com/watch?v=4begc_U8ygI#searching
3. surprise!! this is an interview. i have some Official Author questions for you (feel free to pick and choose, come back to this later, or just striaght up ignore lol):
3a. Do you have any authors (professional or not) that you aspire to be like one day?
3b. Following that up, are there any specific works (again, published, professional, etc or just amazing amateur works!!) that really inspire you?
3c. What made you start writing? I'm curious on anything that led to the conscious decision, of course, but additionally do you think there was anything you grew up with that "planted the seeds"? Was it any of the people from question 3a?
3d. What's the silliest (/pos) idea you've ever had for a fic? If you didn't write/publish it, why not? Was it a recent thing? If not, do you think your experience would have influenced that idea today?
if those dont make sense u can send me a messgae or something 👍👍👍 goodnight
ITS BEEN THREE DAYS but im here okay……. lets do this. hi pep :>
1) alas, i’ve been focusing on a lot of other things so i havent reached a written point of the Code Usage, which begins in like chapter 3-4. sorry man 💔 (progress has been made ! just not as much as i’d hope 😭)
2) FUN FACTS?!??!??!??!!?!!? IM WATCHING A DOCUMENTARY RN BUT IM YOINKING THIS RIGHT AFTER YIPPIE!!!!!!!!
3a) uhmmmmmmmm i dont exactly pay attention to authors as much as i pay attention to books but you know what. rick riordan. not because of anything he’s done or written but because of his audacity to write 20+ books in the same universe and still get 100000000000000 people 1000000% invested in it. i wanna write sequels forever. can i be him
3b) OHHHHHHHH UHM UHM UHM UHM the thing that got me into fanfic specifically was the fic “versability” (it was a gf fic about ‘what if ford never made the portal’, written like 2015-16, and yeah i did know of and even read a bit of fic beforehand but i was never into it) but just READING ? the land of stories by chris colfer, easy. mmmmmmmmm that was my fucking Thing. if i wasnt a baby at that time i would have WROTE. SO. MUCH. GOOD GOD. IT WAS MY THING. THE THING THAT GOT ME INTO NOVELS. URGH. alex my iconic mentally ill bisexual, conner my precious cynical boy. i need to read those again my GOD now i think about it that was fairytale fanfiction that happejed to bepublished and ohhhhh it was beautiful. im gonna read jt . iM GONNA DO IT!!!!
3c) in writing in general or just fanfic? for fanfic its that one day i had an gf fic idea (that i had to heavily revise/rewrite, but it did end up getting out eventually) that i hadnt read anything like it, and i wanted to see it. decided: hey, im shit at writing, but might as well!!!!!! 65k words later, its not a joke anymore. im a Writer now :) but as for in general, well ofc reading books. people told me in the past im creative and should get into book writing if you like reading so much. i decided well im gonna do it professionally, but might as well do something tiny, so i well uh wrote. im not gonna tell you but it certainly was Something. classic isekai mary sue dramatic plot hybrids etc etc etc but actually the queen the mc is “related” to is actually polyam and was in a relationship with both their dad and their mom and the big villain is the queen’s sister who’s pissed that both of her lovers ditched her for the human world (but actually they had to break up because because the society was not polyam friendly. there just happened to be a war after that). everything else was basic isekai except for that little crumble of lore. the queen was a bisexual. the dad was a pansexual. the mom was a lesbian. i think i ate there to be honest
3d) mmmmmm i gotta think. there was definitely a gf x amphibia au where ford got ploped in amphibia and the plantars IMMEDIATELY stole him and wrapped him up in their adventures right when the plot starting becoming a thing (early season 2). there’s one where stan and ford just….. climb a tree. it’s laced with a lot of philosophical talks straight from good omens knowledge but ultimately its just goody fun. mmmmm theres one where gabriel has no idea what crowley looks like, but he DOES know what Bildad The Shuite looks like, itd be tiny but so so so so funny. the gf/gomens crossover…..a human au based on that one tumblr post about a necromancer bringing people back from the dead to fuck with the killer and opening a discord support group….. the s1 humans + aziraphale being the victims, crowley the necromancer, and the s2 humans being the nosy outsiders who Notice things happens but can never say shit. oughhhh……… Yeah. yeah, thats good. most of these are recent except 4 the amphibia one, wouldnt change much about it even with the shit i know now EXCEPT being able to handle the relationships/emotions between the characters better, ive certainly gotten better at it and i love it. i havent published any bc either i started but couldnt finished, or just thought it was neat and moved on to plop it in the ideas folder and wait 4 inspiration.
OKAY THATS A LOT BUT THERE YOU GO sorry for the wait, man. you’re my best cupperty you know that right 🫵 ANSWERS!!!!! and ill work on titanic as fast as i can, it hasnt been forgotten !! i just gotta mow the grass….. (“short” fic wips)

“Head down quickly Y/N, the guests are expecting you soon.” Your father’s voice echoes clearly even halfway down the flight of stairs. 
“I’ll be down soon father.” 
It was thirty minutes ‘till showtime. 
Standing with your head held high, you looked straight into the large mirror displaying your every feature, taking one last good look at yourself. Chanel, the only brand that could cater to your needs for the night, a long fitted black dress with a slit cut perfectly set to reveal your right thigh that followed down to your leg. The girl’s were squished together making them look a lot bigger than they actually were, but you were proud of your body figure. You accessorized the dress with a beautiful pair of diamond earrings that dangled just above your shoulder. You were extremely aware of how revealing this would look especially on an outing like tonight’s, but like hell you would ever take it off. 
You spritzed some of the finest perfume onto your neck, adjusting your dainty necklace that decorated it. After finally being pleased with the person you saw in the mirror, you slipped into a pair of black heels finalizing your look.
Showtime.
Your father expressed just how important this meeting with the infamous Park Brother’s would be, you can still recall the conversation from last week preparing you for this very moment.
“From what I know, the Parks’ have turned nothing into legacy. Their company has an insane amount of new money invested in this country. Partnering with them would not only set the company for many more years to come, but it will also benefit them later. New money comes and goes, but I have what they desire most. You know very well our company has been running longer than anyone else around these streets, we must invest in the new to keep what we have in the now. Newer wealth buys you a whole country, older wealth buys us the entire world, my dear.”
“I see your vision father. I have heard of this company before. The Park Brother’s are fairly new to the business industry, but have reached remarkable heights. Now I only ask, what do you expect of me?”
“Exactly as to why I called you here. I knew only my golden child would exceed my expectations. The only thing I expect of you now is to help me convince them to work with us. Whatever it takes. It will be tough as they will be receiving multiple offers when the time comes, but the brother’s are still so young and new. Anything that seems beneficial to them will have them running after an arrangement. As you must know, the start-up is run by the head director, Park Jun and his younger brother, Park Jimin. Anything we say or do must appeal to them both. Let’s have a nice successful night, just be yourself. My baby girl always gets what she desires.”
“I understand father, I’ll do my best.”
Before anything, you did your own personal research on these so-called Park Brother’s. 
Park Jun, age 27, began his start-up in 2015 with close friends from his hometown in Busan and it failed terribly, as expected. Not until 2019 when Park Jimin, age 25, revised his older brother’s previous work (or really built a whole new system from scratch) and relaunched the start-up. The start-up quickly took off reaching unimaginable numbers. That’s when the Park Brother’s got a taste of success for the first time. They didn’t stop there. 
The Brother’s moved quickly signing contracts left and right with only the best in the business expanding to the unreachable. They were the moment and continue to be. 
But from where you come from, nothing you haven't seen before. 
They are young, disgustingly rich, and most likely stupid. At the end of the day, men will be men. You understood very well what you were expected to do. 
Catching up with your father didn’t take long, he was already checking up on all his invited guests to make sure all was moving accordingly. Typically, your father’s idea of a nice small gathering is everything but small. Of course, his only plan tonight was to make sure he got that business deal. Whenever he set his mind on anything, he’d get the job done. Luckily, you picked up the trait. 
Your father arranged a huge dinner. It was more a party for networking and setting up connections. He’s done this plenty of times, hosting the biggest annual events to casual dinners with only the finest in the business. Your father was a smart, rich businessman. You fall nothing short of him, having your own name written all over great technological advances worldwide. 
“Kihyun, your daughter is absolutely stunning. She definitely took after you.” The guests peppered after your father, bringing a false smile to your lips, only just arriving to where your father had been. 
It used to be hard to fake smiles, fake pleased reactions but now, they came around like reflexes. Nobody truly means well in a business like this. It was always the same— boring, recycled comments. 
“She’s so beautiful.”
“She could be a model if she didn’t take after her intelligent father!”
“Soon enough she’ll be able to marry!”
“Has she been looking after any possible romantic partners?”
All so stupid— and overused.
As if you would marry any of their worthless (shitty) sons.
Your father turned towards your direction before responding, “Y/N never fails to amaze me, believe it or not, she definitely takes over her mother the most. It is too bad my wife is off on a business trip, she would love to meet with you all.” 
Your father's smile widens when mentioning your mother. Like you said, men will be men. 
Your parents had been separated for quite some time now. Five years to be exact. There was no “business trip”. Her “business trip” was somewhere far, far away from the businesses of your father. You would like to say their separation was a piece of cake, but there was nothing sweet about their end. Your father had been caught cheating multiple times, once by his own daughter. You didn’t bother to hide it from your mother, but you also didn’t tell her. She already knew. She made sure to take the most she could when she left. Leaving her most prized possession behind, you. There was never a call, never an explanation. She didn’t even bother leaving a letter. She just left. She took everything that day, your heart with it. Even then, you don’t blame her. She had her reasons, now you have yours. 
You only stayed besides your father for two things. One: money. Two: business. 
You were lucky enough to have made such an impact in his company that without you, his reputation would crash. He needs you just as much as you need him. It’s exactly why you deal with the fake. Nothing lasts long here. But money will always win. 
“Oh Kihyun, this family has been blessed with not only looks, but intelligence also. You have raised Y/N so well.” The older lady praises. 
Mentally, you roll your eyes. “Why thank you Ma’am. It is an honor to be in your presence.” 
The older lady shakes her head, taking your hand in her palm. “Please, call me Giyeon. I cannot wait to see what more you will bring to this company once your father retires from his position. I expect nothing but the best from you dear.” She squeezes your hand.
She almost sounds honest, so fucking honest, you think. 
You lightly squeeze her hand back, giving her only your best— fake smile. “And the best you shall receive. Thank you for your kind wishes. I hope you all enjoy the nice gathering my father has planned.” With burning opposition, you bow to the elder who almost bends backwards bowing in return. 
“Shall we greet the other guests dear?” Your father kindly intercepts, patiently waiting for your response. 
“Of course father, if you may excuse us. I hope to reunite with you soon. Enjoy the dinner.” And with that you part. 
For a whole hour, you spent your time greeting many guests alongside your father making nothing but small talk to pass time. Within that time there was still no sight of the Park siblings. What a fucking shame, apart from all their “best qualities”, they were also late arrivals. 
Tsk.
While you and your father had been immersed in a conversation with a local businessman, a voice interrupted his speech. “Mr. Kihyun, pleasure to finally meet you.”
Your father quickly took the man’s hand, quite eager that his targeted guests had finally arrived. “Mr. Park, lovely to meet you. We’ve been expecting you! This is my daughter, Y/N.” 
You bowed your head slightly, shaking his hand firmly, scanning for his younger brother that was nowhere to be found. 
“Please, just call me Jun. You do not have to be formal with me, Sir. We have heard nothing but the best from your company. Pleasure to meet you both.” The older brother chooses his words carefully. 
You smile lightly as he returns the gesture. He was very attractive, one of the many things you heard about the Park Brother’s. Seeing it now for yourself in person definitely made sense. The man sure was beautiful. 
“Excuse my brother’s absence, we ran a bit late—”, a man clearing his throat cut his sentence behind him. Before the stranger even came into view he spoke so smoothly, “Looking for me? Excuse my tardiness, this isn’t usual for either of us, but our meetings ran late. It is an honor Sir, Park Jimin at your service.”
Now, he was fucking perfect. Even more stunning than the other. Your eyes couldn’t help to linger. His hair was carefully slicked, a thicker piece of his hair hung on the side of his face almost too perfectly. There wasn’t any face card that man couldn’t pass. Not a single imperfection. His lips were plump, pink. And those eyes almost drove out the worst of sins from anyone who came across them. 
Park Jimin was to die for. 
Your father cut straight to introductions, not wasting any time. “Jimin, what an honor! I’m Kihyun, this is my beautiful daughter, Y/N.” 
It was like fireworks when you both finally locked eyes. It was quite obvious the way you both devoured each other with your eyes, without even raising a finger. You couldn’t help to think if it was just in your imagination or if he had licked his lips too many times while looking at your hips. You had to stay focused. 
“Y/N.” Your name falls out his mouth like honey. You hated him immediately. “Extremely pleased to finally meet you.”
Then he takes your hand ever so gently while looking straight into your eyes with his piercing gaze, placing a soft kiss upon your skin. You force yourself to keep calm instead of dropping your mouth wide open. Nobody has ever had the audacity to kiss your hand before and you would never let them. But anything for business. 
“Oh. Jimin, the pleasure is all mine.” People may have confused your tone as welcoming, but there was none of that. Your tone was sultry and you were sure Jimin picked that up. And it definitely was not just your imagination. Jimin was trouble, you could smell his intentions miles away. You wanted to wipe that smug smile off his face. 
You pulled your hand from his hold very softly and his gaze kept lingering around your presence. 
“Shall we all get going?” Your father’s voice pulled you out of your blurred thoughts. You nodded in response, turning your back cautious of the guests, instinctively following your father's footing. You could have sworn that from the corner of your eye, Jimin’s gaze dropped the moment you turned around and a part of you was content. The dress was doing its job. Men will be men, right? 
The next thing you hear is a light smack nearly causing you to giggle. The man immediately gets scolded very quietly by his older brother. Oh Park Jimin, the trouble you have gotten yourself into. 
The party continued over a nice meal. You didn’t touch any of the food brought out. Though you usually never did on nights like these. You couldn’t help but notice Jimin hadn’t touched his either. But you both did have one thing in common. Alcohol. 
You both downed champagne like it was water. You lost count of how many glasses you had trying to count his own. The man still looked light on his feet, not even alcohol could phase the man. 
Fuck, you were in big trouble. 
“Y/N?” A velvety voice interrupts your thoughts. You then only turn your view from Park Jimin to the voice. 
“Kim Taehyung.” You confirm. “How may I help you?”
He smiles, pulling you in by your waist for a short hug. “I’ve been meaning to get back to you. The sales took off after our meeting. I wanted to thank you. You saved me.” 
You smile. “I’m happy to hear that. No need to thank me, Taehyung. I’m glad you could make it. Though honestly, I didn't think you’d be here.”
“How could I ever miss your father’s lovely gatherings?“ He looks around, biting his lip before he leans in to whisper for your ears to hear only. “I could never miss them after how well you took care of me last time.”
You bite your own lip at the memory. As bad as it may have sounded, you never meant to sleep with Kim Taehyung. It happened very naturally, too naturally even. 
The handsome young man invited you out for a joint. You didn’t even smoke then, but you could never say no to the guests, plus he was like candy to the eye. The sex was just a plus. 
“You haven’t smoked before?” The man asks, flicking ash off the joint before inhaling a large amount, then releasing it straight into the dark skyline.  
“Sometimes.” You cut conversation short. Any average smoker would know you had never even touched a joint in your life by the way you handled the stick. You couldn’t hold the smoke in your mouth to save your life. Nevertheless, you felt so out of your mind. The feeling was unlike anything you had ever felt before. It’s a feeling not even science could explain until you experience what being high truly meant. 
Taehyung chuckles, tossing the last of what was left. You were full of shit, he thought as he crushed the bud with his heel.
By this time, you were trying to connect the midnight stars with your finger, but you couldn’t decide whether you were seeing a pineapple or a dog. What a strange feeling. “Is this how it’s supposed to feel?” You ask Taehyung, dumbfounded. 
The man just shrugs. “Don’t know. Do you feel good?” 
You just nod, laying your head on the railing of the balcony you two were standing on. 
“Then yes.” He simply responds. 
Then you lift your head so suddenly. “Have you ever wondered how being surrounded by clouds would feel? I bet it feels like a big hug from a polar bear. Don't they look soft? So cuddly and cute, right? But they probably are veryyyy mean. I mean, it’s not like I would know. I went to college for medicine to defy my father and still ended up doing business, somehow. It’s funny how life works.” 
Taehyung blinks several times before busting out laughing. You join him pretty quickly. In the middle of your laugh you lose balance and almost come crashing down into the cold pavement, but Taehyung breaks your fall pulling you into his arms. This is where you got to see just how handsome the man truly was. Those hazel eyes were nothing but trouble. You couldn’t help but to poke at all his little birthmarks on his face, he was almost cute. 
Taehyung just stared as you kept tapping his face. “Having fun?” He asked. 
“Lots of it actually.”
This is how you two ended up tangled in each other’s arms. In other words, it’s how you ended up riding him right outside your balcony, not bothering to step back inside. The dark skies being your destination. It wasn’t your best of choices but Taehyung was just too much fun. You always did get easily distracted. 
“Oh my God.” You moaned, feeling Taehyung’s cock brush against your walls.
Maybe it was the drugs speaking but this was the best sex of your entire life. The sex was uncoordinated— sloppy and all around lazy. It was fucking terrible and perfect at the same time. You both stopped chasing an orgasm minutes ago now, you were having sex solely for pleasure. 
Taehyung lazily kisses into your mouth bringing his tongue to crash with yours only causing you to moan into his mouth. He lets your lips go with a hard pop, looking at the mess between your legs. Taehyung buckled his hips higher into your tight pussy, feeling your walls tightening. 
“You close doll?” He pants, feeling quite overstimulated himself. Your legs shake, pouncing on his pretty cock, you were so close.
“I’ll take that as a yes.” He laughs, before driving himself deeper into you, this time much more roughly. His large hands spread you apart, forcing you to feel his throbbing member inside your sensitive pussy, smashing into your g-spot. 
“Fuck.” You hissed. 
Taehyung released his own moans, quite close himself. “Where do I come sweetheart?” Taehyung sweetly asked, hips still buckling desperately. 
“Inside.” You gasp as you feel your walls stretching. He repeatedly hit your sweet spot not missing a beat, plunging deeper in every thrust. “Inside puh-please.”
Taehyung started to lose himself so long ago but you could feel his desperation for an orgasm when he dove his dick into your pussy at a quick pace. Without further anticipation and a deep grunt, Taehyung painted your walls white and right after you came all over his sensitive member.
Between pants you couldn’t help to ask, “Does this mean you’ll sign with us?” 
All the man could do was laugh, dick still buried deep in your pussy. “I think you knew the answer was yes even before we did this.”
“Can’t forget about me Kim?” You tease. 
He coolly shrugs. “I’d say it’s the other way around, Ms. Y/L/N.” 
“Right.” You muse. 
“What’s the plan for tonight?” Taehyung asks, looking around. There were at least a hundred people there tonight. Something he was used to seeing. 
“Ah.” You hum. After all that has happened between you two (sharing a joint and mindblowing sex), you and Taehyung had gotten pretty close. He is someone you’d say you could trust. There’s not many people you could say that about. The last person you trusted left you behind as if you meant nothing. Taehyung, in short, was your friend, one you accidentally fucked. And most likely would fuck again if given the chance, but that’s for another day. “I have to get the Park Brother’s to sign.” 
“Already looking to replace me?” Taehyung crosses his arms, leaning his back against the wall. 
“Mm, never that.” You smile, looking around the room before looking back at him. 
“How do you plan on doing that anyways?”
“I have my ways, Kim.” You nonchalantly reply. 
Taehyung stays silent. “You don’t plan on fucking him into an agreement right?” Taehyung asks, following your train of sight which just so happened to be on Park Jimin, the man of the fucking hour. 
You smugly shrug. “I just might. I mean, it worked for you, didn’t it?” You pat his shoulder innocently. “Nice seeing you Kim. If you may excuse me, I have business to attend to. Enjoy the night.”
Taehyung was left in disbelief as usual, tilting his head before laughing dryly. You were always so impressive to him. There wasn’t anything you couldn’t do.
And there wasn’t anything you wouldn't do for business.

anyway ugh 2am and i am once again irked & sad ab how dirty sakavic got done... so much of that i'm assuming was like. 2013-16 era fandom rancidness but like. books aint bad! like,,,, im the giant pretentious reading things critical analysis freak whos so pissy abt fiction all of the time. & i think theyre good ok. u know me ive got bitchy standards for fiction. like. plot is clumsy plot holes are vaguely ridiculous and improbable but it's a piece of fiction where going "oh my GODD... PLOTHOLE!!!" makes me go what. u dont want conflict jeremy? u dont want plot? dont read the fuckin mafia stickball book then?sakavic i think succeeds w/ flying colors at what she was trying to do (write the fucked up whump equivalent of a ben & jerrys chocolate core brownie dough pint) & that is the bar for how i judge fiction most of the time. and while i'm still here its insane 2 me that that this shits still perceived as Gay Storie.... like thats. probably 80% of why fanspaces were so rancid ab it. in hindsite. jesus. shivers running through my spine at the thought of 2015 tumblr fujoshis. <- this sucks worse imo bcos the romance quote unquote is still gensrs one of my favorite fictional relationships ever. literally no one writes romo like aroace bitches do & its insane that people were coming at her for her writing being toxic when like. the concrete main themes of these fucking books are trauma recovery & respect of boundaries no matter what & also found family. idk it just still makes me mad on her behalf. which. again. i do not often give a shit abt authors she rlly is an exception.

Okay I've just got this idea for steve x eddie wedding!!
(Bc they dont die/probably might die in my heart)
Since gay marriage was legalized in the US in 2015 they would be roughly 48-52? years old. You cant tell me that the two would definitely be some of the first to get married (same with robin and vickie)
Erica was their wedding planner. She made sure everything was PERFECT (she makes sure there is an icecream stand)
They would definitely have such a fun wedding!! Steve in a white suit, eddie wearing a black suit only the jacket is a leather one (hes definitely also wearing doc Martins)
They also had incredibly sappy speeches (lucas max Dustin and will had a bet in how many times eddie would use his pet names for steve, max wins its was alot)
Wayne and joyce walk them down the isle
(They 1 empty chair for chrissy and every one else who died because of the upsidedown)
The moment they mentioned they started wedding planning robin practically jumped at the idea of being steve maid of honor (she cryed when he asked her, she was so happy) her vickie max erica el and nancy are Steve's groom maids? (Is that a thing??) The hellfire club members make up Eddie's grooms men (one of the members of Corroded Coffin members is his best man)
Dustin is the flower man/ ring bearer because he couldnt pick a side to be on so he chose both! (He may be in his 40s at this point but they're still basically his dads)
He cried the whole time (especially through his speach) bc he was so happy his dads were finally getting their happy ever after every thing they've been through!
Robin is also crying!
Robin trys to make her speach as embarrassing as possible, but bc shes speaking really fast through tears so only a few people understand her
(steve and eddie love it tho and cant blame either of them for crying bc they have been in tears because they've been crying non stop ever since seeing eachother at the alter)
Nancy makes a speech about how shes glad steve found the person he could make his family with! (You cant tell me that these men havnt taken to fostering/ adopting as many kids as possible after everything in Hawkins calms down)
Max does a speach about how much shes happy that her two older brothers are able to have this day for them, even if they are a bunch of idiots who would forget she could hear them from her trailer!!
Wayne, joyce, hopper (and Robin's parents bc I feel like they would love and adopt steve) all also make emotional speeches about their kids, wayne would definitely be the most emotional.
Jonathan is their wedding photographer
They chose to have a simple small wedding cake, (an ice cream cake with a nail bat and guitar decoration on top) their was also alot of rainbow cupcakes (requested by vickie)
Their wedding song is 'Born to be my Baby' by bon jovi (it was a compromise bc steve didnt want heavy metal for their first dance like eddie wanted, and so, bc Steve's Eddie's baby they pick this song instead!!)
eddie definitely sang it to steve while they were dancing! Steve was definitely not crying while laughing at eddie who was definitely not singing it seriously at the beginning.
Corodded Coffin plays live as the wedding band, eddie goes up and joins them for a few songs before going back and joining his husband!! (They still cant believe they're officially married after everything with the upside down they are both still alive and able to openly love eachother)
Steve and robin flex their icecream scooping skills (they still got it even years later)
Eddie is very inlove with his husband
Steve is also very inlove with his husband
Dustin and will come together and announce the game they prepared for the couple + guests where its basically a scavenger hunt × dnd and everyone has a blast!! Somehow robin and hopper are covered in rainbow glitter, el was using her powers to levitate max out of her wheelchair to help them play, mike is stuck in a tree and Dustin somehow has a bucket on his head!! Steve and eddie loved it!!
Everyone left with massive smiles that day, was a great day and everyone had a great time! And it truly was a day to remember and love <3
Also argyle was the one who officiated the wedding
