bts x idol!gf headcanons pls!!
i’ve been loooving ur bts boyfriend headcanons so far! ur so talented
Omg thank you so much 🫶🏽 I actually enjoyed writing this. Here you go & enjoy! <3
Tumblr media
Namjoon:
• Tries to be discreet with your dating but will accidentally leave hints like some of your merch/stuff in the background of his pics/lives.
• Paparazzi pics in museums & galleries. Definitely off guard
• Always in touch when the other is away.
• Will publicly share your music/projects. Is a big supporter
• Spotting’s in clubs. Shades on dancing the night away. Y’all are definitely the talk of the night
• You both subtly post things on your story that insinuates that you both might be dating. Same location, same background, posting pics at same event or place. Posting songs that relate to each other.
• You both definitely talk through your stories. Talking to each other through songs or silly captions etc
Tumblr media
Jin:
• Will shut down any bad rumour about you. Very defensive when it comes to you.
• Big supporter and is at all of your shows/events cheering you on if he can.
• Goes on live wearing your merch
• Lives where both of you are cooking together and bickering with each other about who’s better or who does it right.
• Idk I can see y’all presenting together?!! And kinda teasing each other. (I see this before you start dating. And this causes speculation which kind of initiates both of you dating??)
• You both definitely post pics of each other being a mess. Off guard pics 100%
Tumblr media
Yoongi:
• Song covers while he plays the instrumental for you on his guitar or piano
• Will stick up for you and will shut down any bad rumour about you. Very defensive when it comes to you. And if you're getting hate he's gonna make sure it's dealt with
• Very protective when out in public together. Is like your own little personal bodyguard and will hold your hand and lead you away from the paparazzi/fans
• Will go on live and call out everyone for your fan edits. Even though he acts like he doesn’t like it he blushes and secretly saves them.
• He’s caught with your picture as his lockscreen
Tumblr media
Hobi:
• Loads of dance videos and choreographies.
• Lives where you both are just dancing and vibing in the practice room.
• Duet video dance covers that he begs you to do
• Cameos in each others MVs
• Has your merch. Has your photocard hanging on his jeans or bag for sure.
• Is spotted with your initials painted on his fingernails
• Always showing you off to the cameras with a big grin on his face. Showing your photocard, merch, his lockscreen of you, showing his nails or any jewellery with your initials on it.
• Taking selfies with your posters/adverts with a big smile on his face. Or even will do a little freestyle dance in front of it lmfao
Tumblr media
Jimin:
• Cameos in each others projects. Him more so in yours.
• Will talk about you in his lives. Will purposely make up a comment and read it out and then go on a whole rant about you. Will get shy and then wave it off
• Duet video covers that you beg him to do
• Posting pics with the same background/location so people know you're together
• Likes every and any fan edit of you both.
• You both are always spotted on little dates like cafes, pottery painting or just casual walks
• You both wear matching jewellery that he picked out himself
• Taking selfies with your posters/adverts with a happy proud smile on his face and the most sentimental and encouraging paragraph
Tumblr media
Taehyung:
• Cameos in each others projects/MVs
• Loads of leaked messages of y'all being messy
LFMAO.
• Loads of photo shoots from him. He loves being your personal photographer
• Will purposely like and interact with any conspiracies and speculations about you dating. (Before you both went public with your relationship)
• He will beg you to go on variety shows together. He sees it as something fun. I can see you both bickering during the recording and making fun of each other/ teasing. You both would kill it though even though you don’t take it seriously you’d probably end up doing great in the games.
• Public outing spottings. You guys are always seen out together holding hands or him with his arm around you. You guys always stop for pictures.
• You both wear matching jewellery to symbolise your relationship
• Y’all are always caught kissing in public. So many pictures have been leaked
Tumblr media
Jungkook:
• Paparazzi pics of your date nights. Holding hands and running away from the paparazzi/fans as a game
• Very sneaky and lowkey. Like you're known to be dating but you're very sneaky with it. Always hiding from paparazzi and not really speaking about your relationship publicly.
• But will publicly stick up for you if there's rumours going around or hate. He's shutting that shit down
• Duet cover videos that you guys randomly post that has the fans going insane
• Hot dance covers. Y’all both being sweaty having re-recorded many times due to fuck ups, teasing and getting distracted iykwim ;)
• Always FaceTiming and calling when either of you are away. You both miss each other so much and you can't go without communicating. He literally will keep on messaging you if you don't respond
• Fan edits go crazy and he eats it up every time. He’s obsessed with watching them.
• I can imagine him calling you during his promotion sketch videos. Seen giggling on the phone to you, excited to talk to you after his promotions. Sometimes you might even make a cameo in them
• You’re always seen discretely wearing his clothes

writing update for anyone who wants one ✨
Hello! I thought it was time for a little writing update, as I have a lot of requests still left to do, many from quite a while ago, and I hadn't posted much recently due to work and a vacation!
under the cut for anyone who wishes to know!
requests marked with an asterisk (*)
currently done - to be posted in the following order:
*Larissa x reader go to a pumpkin patch (I really want to post this tomorrow, Saturday at the latest if I don't feel well again tomorrow)
Lipstick Stains ch 12
A smutty little surprise for Kinktober!
*Phasma x reader feat. Hanahaki Disease trope (hurt/no comfort)
*Brienne x reader songfic to Strange by Celeste (hurt/comfort)
currently working on:
Lipstick Stains ch 13
*Larissa x principal!reader (okay listen I know I've been working on this for actual ages now and I'm almost done, hoping to post next week and as soon as it is finished I will squeeze it into the 'to be posted' schedule asap)
*Another smutty fic for Kinktober, so y'all don't leave my blog empty-handed ;)
next in line:
I have a lot of requests to choose from and will try to go in order of receiving them as much as I can, inspiration and appropriateness taken into account. I also have some ideas of my own hehe. Some fics I might be taking a look at:
*Larissa x reader, reader is a new openly lesbian teacher who helps Larissa realize she's gay
*Brienne x reader, domestic fluff!
*Jane Murdstone x singer!reader
*Larissa x reader, where reader suffers with vaginismus
Brienne x aggressive!reader
Jane Murdstone, sorta sickfic?
Anyway, thank you for being so patient with me. Writing/posting with a full-time job, a chronic illness and whilst trying to have a social life is not the easiest and I'm sorry if it takes me a long time to get to your request or update my series but I am seriously so thankful for everyone who is patient and kind and encouraging, and who continues to support my fics and send me requests and lovely messages. I never thought I would start posting fics publicly, let alone connect personally with so many people because of that, but it makes my heart very happy 🥰

Gonna Give You Something (So You Know What’s on My Mind)
Tumblr media
RWRB | E | 4.3k | Chapter 1/2
Tags - Alternate Universe - Roommates/Housemates, Friends to Lovers, Fluff, Smut, Humor, Mutual Pining, Love Confessions
Summary
Alex hums, turning around to pull open the freezer drawer. “You want anything?” But Henry barely registers his question. Not when Alex is slightly bent over, allowing Henry a perfect view of his perfect ass. Each individual ridge of his spine is visible due to his lack of shirt. All of these things combined would normally be a large enough issue in itself to render Henry dumbstruck, except— Except, that’s not the only thing that Henry’s faced with. Right there, clear as day: blue lace, delicately peeking out from the waistband of his joggers. Henry’s hand immediately flies up to his cheek. The skin is hot to the touch, and he feels the imprint of where the material once lay like a brand.
Or, With the help of a white elephant gift, Henry learns that maybe the whole being-in-love-with-his-roommate thing isn’t as one-sided as he thought
Part 1 is posted now! :) And part 2 will be posted on Saturday. After not writing for nearly a month, I was feeling kind of bleh, but this fic reminded me why I love writing. I had so much fun with it, and I'm so thankful for everyone who's been supporting me. I'm so excited to finally be sharing this with y'all - it's low key crack treated seriously but I took it... way too seriously
Read part one here

I know I've been pretty quiet lately (the last two surprise fics aside) and that this year has been generally sparse on content, but I just wanted to rap with y'all for a sec.
First, I'm super grateful for all the kindness and support I've received, despite not being super active. Having nearly 1k followers here as a fic writer, especially with the way things are on this particular website rn, is wild to me. Even if only a few of you are still online, I'm really thankful.
Second, my new year’s resolution is to write more (shocking, I know), but that includes my original work as well, so I can't predict what the fic output might be. Regardless, I've got multiple things in the works rn and my interest in my current fandoms has not waned a bit. There might even be a curveball here and there, we'll see.
Third, in case you were worried about Liminality bc it hasn't been updated in well over a year, never fear! Part 3 is DONE and I'm just trying to decide on a posting schedule. Liminality is going to be a big big big project, and I'll be real with you, it's going to be a WIP for a very long time, so I understand why people might be hesitant to read it rn and that interest (and patience) will fade as fans naturally drift away from p5, and that does make me a bit nervous; however, I'm still very committed to and excited about this story, and I sincerely appreciate all the love it's gotten so far as well as everyone who sticks with it or takes a chance on it in the future. Y'all rock so hard.
I simply cannot stress enough how much it means to me that people read and enjoy my work. Finishing and posting fic still feels new to me, as I've always thought of myself as someone who burns out quickly and can't follow through on anything, so becoming a writer with a distinct style and works that people remember and recognize over the past few years has challenged this sort of low opinion I had of myself and actually affected how I approach things outside of fanfiction as well. It's a learning process that I'm still experiencing and I owe a lot of it to you guys, random people on the internet who took the time to read and like my stuff.
Seriously, thank you all so much. I hope I can continue writing and taking fictional characters way too seriously in 2024 and beyond. ❤️ Happy New Year!!

rambling (positive)💚
Before I go for the night, just wanted to thank everyone who's following me/enjoying my art/just generally being super nice n cool. Y'all's kindness means so, so much to me as a shy guy who kept all this love in me for literal years. Finding this community has given me so much more confidence in who I am. Having this space where my relationship is seen like any other, where I can just talk about my partner without having to awkwardly filter myself, has been so healing.
Y'all have no clue how much you've warmed my icy lil heart in the short time I've been posting here💚I keep a gratitude/prayer journal & your names have made it in there often. Your sweet words of support are written in there too :')
I seriously am so grateful. Thanks for being you❣️🙌I'm so glad we're here together to share all this love & joy.

In regards to the weird backlash over Benn Beckman's live action casting--I'm sorry you expected a character at 38-48 to look like anything else but a legit older man. I'm sorry they cast a 39 year old in the role of an older man, first seen at age 38
In terms of looks, the trivia section of the wiki mentions that Oda said that Benn looks like a mouse. The man doesn't even have eyebrows
Like we all think he's hot, I think he's hot, he knows he's hot with that playboy attitude apparently--but please take a second to look at this beloved older man with no eyebrows and undereye creases and come back to me. Tell me you think those are subjectively sexy features and that we're not all fixated on someone who's yeah, normal, but a little strange
Yes I think he's genuinely beautiful for those reasons (among other things) but he's just some guy and I'm glad we get to see him as just some guy. He's incredibly smart and sympathetic and protective but like most of Shanks' crew, they look like normal people. I'm sorry you wanted all supermodels for the crew who camps out on an island the majority of the time. Realistically he'd smell like tobacco and alcohol, even just from proximity, even if he's absolutely one of the crew that actually showers everyday. Yeah Yasopp and Shanks are banging and Lucky Roux too--although apparently a lot of you haven't matured to the point where you realize fat people are hot--but they're all normal people with Benn being the oldest by far. If we were dealing with post-timeskip Benn here, you mean to tell me you think a 50 year old man would look any other way? Them hiring a 39 year old is fucking kind if someone ten years away from 50 is this upsetting to you
Like the one thing I'd fix is the wig styling. That's it. I feel like it needs to fit just a smidge better but this isn't RuPaul's Drag Race--I don't expect the wigs of all things to be top tier. We saw the Wado Ichimonji bend (which I'm also not taking seriously/I think it's so fucking funny) and people are irritated that Taz Skylar is more muscular as Sanji than Mackenyu as Zoro--as if Zoro wasn't a fucking beanstalk of a man in part one?
I get wanting to be picky about things, especially your faves, but they are never going to adhere to everything everyone could possibly dream of for a fancast. Hell, they don't even draw the characters the same in the manga anymore, with certain things (skin tones) being more important than other, more preferential things (hair color, type--even if those changes irritate me too)
You don't have to like the casting but for fuck's sake do you want an apology from fat people? Older people? He's not even 40! Get over yourselves. I'm thrilled that so much of this cast just looks like themselves. That they look like regular fucking people and that we can designate the entire budget to Chuu and Arlong and Buggy instead.
Plus Mihawk is gorgeous all the time and I think this is accentuated by like. Yeah the cast is hot and cute and good looking but they're also normal people. He gets to be this otherworldly beauty amongst good looking people you'd see everyday because he's this striking, chilling, strict, and beautiful presence around just, everyone else.
But if you think for a fucking second I'm personally not singing my fucking praises when a character like Benn Beckman has a round stomach like that my God like I don't know what the rest of you are doing wasting your time wishing he had abs, for fuck's sake he's on the crew of borderline cirrhosis, I think ALL of them should have beer bellies. Thank fuck for Lucky Roux and Benn Beckman in the same scene bc that was a blessing, thank fuck for fat people
Do you know how hot it'd be if someone as big as Crocodile was fat? How strange it'd genuinely be if he isn't? He's fucking massive, what do you want him to weigh, 170lbs? He couldn't support the fat titties y'all give him with that low of a weight
Do you know how hot Alvida is with her round face and double chin? For Benn Beckman of all characters to have a stomach, for Lucky Roux to be fat and endearing and cute and able to be written as an actual character and not like, a beach ball of a man, is the closest thing we're gonna get to fat people being allowed to exist normally in One Piece
And the story isn't fucking about them! One Piece has over 1000 episodes and Netflix is going to cancel this inevitably as they do with every show to avoid paying their actors and writers--we literally do not have time to give Benn more than a background role anyways. What's it matter if you don't like how he looks in the two scenes they're gonna give him
Lastly look at his IMDB pic and tell me he's not handsome
The point isn't to only respect people if they're attractive but like. He's really good looking anyways! Y'all are letting your perfect perception of Benn Beckman to overwhelm the actual performance being done, and of a background character no less. You guys are letting a cheap wig poison you into calling a real life person ugly for daring to play the role of a background character as instructed
This fatphobia and ageism (of a fucking, 39 year old man like he's pushing 100) combo is literally the mirror image of every anime fan power-scaling on Twitter, the "this is how Kaido and Big Mom will win" dudes preoccupied with their own poorly written fantasies rather than seeing what a clearly-written, the-good-guys-will-prevail story is plainly saying to the audience
You are becoming no different than the pathetic dudes (who aren't strong, who aren't doing fight choreo, who may even have the same amount of fat but who think they're immune to the same hatred for it--who could be doing all these things but still are worthless pieces of shit because they're spiteful and have no personalities or interests beyond that) saying he's not tough enough, that he should be stronger and more fit--in a show where everyone's either fit or ugly, in a show that showed him to be average size--real skinny even in the manga, as with everyone else at that point! from luffy to zoro to sanji, they all were beanpoles--in a world where no one can be normal about other people of any weight they perceive to be "fat," regardless of if that's the case or not
This is supposed to be for fun and being so irrevocably rattled by the little things is detracting from your enjoyment of something intended to deviate from the source media and that in some ways (in regards to the variety of people being casted/in regards to Luffy being Brazilian in Oda's words) is closer to the source media than we think
You don't have to have Liebenberg as your Beckman choice. You don't have to like the trimmed down storyline, even in the face of needing to cut for time no matter what. It's fine to be the type of person who wants adaptations to be as close to the source media as possible and I've felt that way about certain media too! I dislike when what I fixate on isn't the main focus of a new creation! But directing any dissatisfaction towards this dude doing the job he was hired for because you think he's ugly is ridiculous

So sorry you have to go through stuff like that, ig thats how being a person (especially a trans person) online is sometimes.
Im certain the vast majority of ppl here, and like, at least everyone i know, support you fully. You are a person who deserves all the best, no matter what anyone says <3
I thank y'all for the kind words but like. Seriously you don't have to, it's not a big deal. Casually talking about and joking around about shit from my past has been huge in allowing me to deal with it.

So, idk. Everytime that I think about the First season of Tdi 2023 i almost have a headache so... I RE WRITED, WUAHAH-
(long text)
the unic thing that changed in the start is that MK, Julia Priya and Millie are in opposite teams, Just to both teams have the right aesthetic with the right persons,
Ripper's team will finally have the 'Be gay do crimes' aesthetic
And Bowies team will finally have the 'Be gay be supportive' aesthetic
EP 1: The rest of the episode almost nothing changed. Ripper's team win, Bowies team loses. Caleb goes home because yes
EP 2: sooo, my least favorite episode (not counting with EP 5)
well, instead of Axel kick Ripper out, Ripper and Axel just starts to beat Each other up just like Chet and Lorenzo and after that, Ripper stops arguing with Axel and make her Focus on the challenge and make Bowies team lose again, then our girl boss doesn't go home and the "Ripper vs Axel discussion" will never exist, thanks god.
The votes tied up, The bottom 2 were Wayne and Priya. No one was eliminated
EP 3: Again, Bowie's team loses and then they decides to Vote Nichelle off and er idk
EP 4: Gosh, Bowie's team loses again.
The one going home is Emma cuz they didn't needed her anymore and during the challenge she was all the time going next to Chase because straight people, y'all get it.
EP 5: Instead of the challenge be about not making noises with... Farts. (seriously who tf wrote this episode) The participants needs to go around the island with a collar that randomly does loud noises, and shocks you if you try to curse.
But Ripper's team finally loses and because of that they vote off Damien because he asked to everyone to vote him off. Also, Damien's elimination will be like DJ's elimination, everyone from his team get sad about it and hugs him. And after the elimination Julia's finally Finds her phone in the confessory and discovers that MK is stealing things from every one.
EP 6: Julia secretly sabotages her team and because of that they lose, and until the elimination Julia calls every one to a group reunion and shows to her team that MK was recording the confessions and stealing their stuff, Julia dramatically and calmly Says:
"She wasn't only recording our confessions without we knowing, she also Recorded other things. What does that mean, mk? Is it some kind of fetish? You're disgusting"
and because of that literally EVERYONE votes MK off and her Elimination is literally her being arrested because she was doing crimes until and during The reality show. (Also, Raj and Wayne start dating since this episode)
EP 7: So, this episode will pratically be a Ripper redemption arc, during the episode Ripper, Zee and Chase were getting along, while Julia was sabotaging (idk if I wrote right) and making Scary Girl looks like a horrible person Infront of everyone and because of other things, Ripper's team loses again. Making Scary girl be eliminated, and during her Elimination until She started with her edgy ballshitzu Ripper just give his marshmallow to her and simply said "take this, shut up. Bye, see you later" and that's it. Julia now knows about that Priya was training Millie and that Millie had a journal that she talked about Priya's parents, so... More sabotage
Ep 8: okay, every else from Ripper's team loses and just remains Ripper, making him and his team won because everyone from Bowie's team losed during the challenge. Bowie made everyone vote for Priya because she's was really bossy during the challenge, she almost made Millie cry and Was Agressive with her when she tried to explain her self. Yeah, Bye Priya.
EP 9: in this episode, all the teams get mixed together into just one during the entire rest of the entire season. And because of that, Julia got closer to Wayne and making him believe that she CARES about him, but she doesn't, Sadly. So, since Wayne was all the time ignoring Raj and all the time trying to talk to Julia, almost every one voted for him, and he went out. Wayne is Eliminated #R.I.PHimboBoy
EP 10: It's a double elimination episode. The first two persons that lose in this challenge goes home, without elimination, just going home. And because of pizza, Chase pushed everyone else not counting with Ripper, so Ripper wins because Bromance or idk, but he pushed Zee and Raj first, and now they are eliminated. And because of that Bowie will do ANYTHING to eliminate Chase.
EP 11: Julia knows that Bowie is the unic one that is actually in the same level that her, so she will find a way to end him quickly. Everyone else loses, the one that wins is Julia because... Instagram photos. And the power that the immunity gives you (only in this episode) is that you can eliminate whoever you want, and she chooses Bowie.
EP 12: the challenge is again, a another double elimination episode. The 2 last persons that stay in the cave, are automatically eliminated. Julia finded a way to let Millie stuck in the Cave, while she tried to find and End Axel or Ripper,
Ripper because he Already understand what to do ,how to act and who is his enemy during the reality show.
And Axel because she can easily Eat Julia Alive.
She doesn't care about Chase because he just got into the final 5 because of Ripper and Axel, so he's easy to be beaten.
But when she trough she let Ripper Behind, the one that was in his place was Chase, Homoafective Sacrifice, gay gay homosexual gay oh mah gah. And our precious girl Millie is out and our Bissexual Mr beast wannabe is out.
EP 13: final 3:
Ripper: The secretly gay Alpha male
Axel: the Warrior
And Julia: The Man-eater
Who will win?

Y'all, I can't
I know we've all heard me say this before, but I literally cannot handle this anymore. My medical team have flat out told me I need to seriously destress. It's too much for my body.
I'm bleeding internally and have been for months now. They know this because my blood tests keep coming up more anemic than the last, my white blood cell levels are high, and other fluid checks keep turning up the presence of blood. I have had every fucking test over the last three months and they can't find the bleed. Waiting on camera results from like two weeks ago. Which is fun. I want them to find something to fix. I explained to my therapist and my psychiatrist that not having something to fight makes this whole process worse.
Not that I need something else to fight. But, it'd fucking help to know what's happening.
I've lost all interest in food. Literally, want nothing to do with it. I eat because I have to eat so I can maintain my blood sugar levels and for meds. But, even that takes so much energy. I just end up eating whatever feels less likely to make me sick just thinking about it, then adapt to account for what is and is not available in the house. Why has food become my enemy? Who the fuck knows. My medical team sure as hell doesn't.
I'm losing weight, but I have weight to spare, so that's not the worst. No, it's the fact that I've had DEPRESSION hair healthier than whatever the fuck's going on rn. I'm EXHAUSTED all the time. Literally every major organ is pulling some bullshit. I am on meds for all the things. But, meds alone can't fix what's going on. As every medical professional on my roster has gone on and on about. Repeatedly. Like I don't get it. Like I'm not trying. Like it's in any way achievable in the place I'm currently mired in.
My family, of course, remains stubbornly, willfully, intractably ignorant of my situation and my pleas despite me literally, explicitly stating that I cannot keep on like this.
I can't work because of organ complications. No work means no money. No money means having to negotiate and sacrifice and just go without for stretches sometimes. I have exactly .5 in my bank account and that's going to end up negative sometime this week. Yet, I'm still expected to care for young children, attend to older children, clean a house that is not mine and care for an ailing aunt with rapid onset aggressive alzheimer's/dementia. All for no pay, no compensation, no thanks and nothing but grief and harassment when I literally cannot scrape enough energy together to completely push through all my own shit and attend to everyone else and their needs/wants/desires. Everything I do is not the right thing, naturally. And everyone has SOMETHING to say about the state of my health and/or life (especially the lack thereof) while offering zero actual assistance or support - even emotionally, even just by being available. I keep getting bullshit like, "Well, what're you gonna do?" And, "What do you want me to tell you?" And, "You just have to take it and move on."
Three years of straight therapy working to not do that. Three years of therapy growing strong enough to not just give in and to tell people no and a whole host of other things, and now more of this shit. My new therapist is worthless for this kind of stuff. Have a new psychiatrist because my last one left. I am so fucking touch starved I feel sick over any physical contact that isn't with someone too young to care for themselves or an animal. And despite me constantly asking for something, anything all I get is ignored or gaslit or attacked.
There's nothing left for me to attempt for stress relief. I spend most of my time doom scrolling on tik tok because it's the only space that feels in any way engaging or relaxing any more. And I have all this drive to change things, but no way to actually see any, let alone all of it to fruition.
All this to say, my stress levels are incredibly high. I am not okay by any stretch of imagination or definition of the word. And at the rate I'm going, I will probably die from it before anything else happens. Which, btw, is not me being dramatic. That's straight out of several medical professionals mouths. Provided, of course, I do not do a hard reset, which, yeah.
Anyway. Just needed to rant for a bit. Thanks anyone who made it this far. I appreciate you.

GralunaIsland's 1 Year Anniversary!
I have no clue if it's cringe or not, but I just wanted to celebrate my blog's 1 year anniversary of existence a little!!
On this very day last year, October 21, 2021, I made my first Tumblr post, and it's been such a fun ride ever since.
Not only have I made some lasting, dear friendships because of it, it's just been a blast running it, because, yes, I get to run my mouth on a subject I feel so strongly about, but mostly because it's introduced me to a wonderful community of likeminded individuals and even some who disagree yet are so kind!
Continuing with the celebration, I'm shouting out some of my favorite followers/friends/visitors to my blog as a thank you for your kindness! (so sorry if this is embarrassing you; if it does, just dm me and I’ll edit it right away!)
@youthinkofacoolname My near and dear tumblr best friend, you've been my greatest supporter! Always giving me advice and discussing gr///via so wisely with me, even just chatting about whatever, and always understanding when life keeps me busy, not to mention liking all my posts and just being generally awesome! You're the best!! (Accept it!!)
@walkinginfiction My first amazing Tumblr friend who's very special to me, you’ve been here since the beginning! Even though you’re super busy with life, which is totally understandable, whenever you’re here, you give some of the kindest, most helpful support, and your comments are just so well thought out and intentional!
@pinkoperatorpursepie You're honestly just the sweetest person ever (with the absolutely cutest profile picture!!), always so on top of liking my posts as soon as they're posted. Your loyalty and vigilance mean so much to me! You're seriously one of my favorite followers!
@teamcharlastor You might change your username constantly, but you yourself never change! You’re so fun to talk with and you’re always sending me so many asks with great insight or questions! You’re such a great friend to me! Thank you for helping me keep the Anti gr///via fandom alive with your own posts on your blog too!
@bonnielass23 You've said some of the kindest things to me ever on this blog, and you're so thoughtful in your asks and comments! Your insight is superb! And your fanfics are brilliant! I utterly enjoy reading them; thank you for sharing them with me! Such a sweet person!
@nashadragneel Bestie, you're such a kind, amazing person! We may disagree on certain things, but our friendship is a testament that you can do so and look past your differences and live in harmony! You're a stellar individual!
@meancetosociety You’re such a sweetheart! You're so understanding, and you share your absolutely delightful head-canon and fanfic ideas with me and even ask for my humble opinion! I love talking to you!
@perfectlyimperfectcharacterfan Your insightful comments truly leave me in awe! I appreciate the meticulous attention you give my posts and for sharing your intelligent musings with me! They really have me thinking even deeper into the analyses I post, and I really appreciate how you push me to do so just by simply being a clever, sharp individual.
@nillajinx Last, but definitely not least-- your support really astounds me! You reblog so many of my posts I can’t even keep track! The appreciation I have for you knows no bounds. Thank you so much!
But also, huge thank you to all my followers and to everyone who even just reads my posts! >_<
Continuing on the celebration haha, in honor of 1 year of running this blog, over the course of today, I'll be reblogging some of my most favorite posts I've written over the year. I have no idea if other blogs do this, but if they don't I guess I'll just be the first to start this tradition!
My goal is that it'll let my new followers get a chance to see some of the older things I've written, and maybe some of my old followers will get to reread something they liked.
Lastly, just an update, I'm still getting through all my wonderful asks, so thank y'all so much for your infinite patience with me! Today my family came up to visit me from my hometown, so I don’t have too much time to myself rn, but things are getting done, I assure you (ง’̀-‘́)ง
Thank you all again for the support, and here’s to another year of Anti gr///via content!🎉

Hey y'all,
So I've been MIA for a little bit and I'll talk more about that in another post soon. I'm okay tho, don't worry :)
But anywho, before I made that post I wanted to make a post about this. So I found out this morning that Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn broke up.
Okay, so I know it seems really stupid that I'm making a tumblr post about this as if it's a serious tragedy of some kind. That's not my intention, but I totally I get how it would come across that way and I am probably being overdramatic haha. Honestly, I think it's kind of hilarious that I'm writing this right now too😂
I just think it's okay to relate to an artist's journey regarding a certain aspect of her life (in this case, being in a relationship) and thus, feel a little sad when that journey takes an unexpected and potentially disappointing turn.
Now, I think I've spoken once or twice, if at all, about being a Taylor Swift fan on tumblr--not intentionally, it just didn't really come up. I just thought this might be a good place for me to share my thoughts.
I, of course, don't love Taylor any less and I'm sure she did what was best for her in regards to this whole situation and I support her in that all the way (I say that as if I know her personally lmao😂) But seriously, I'm not trying to say she made a wrong decision or degrade her or Joe as artists or people in any way.
I personally just viewed her and Joe's relationship as a sort of sign of hope for people who want to find love. And from what I've been able to gather, others felt the same way.
Of course, there's always still hope. And you can never really fully understand a relationship that you're not a part of. The songs Taylor wrote about Joe and the ones they wrote together retain their meaning because they capture a moment in time and that's amazing. However, for me personally, it's just gonna be hard to listen to those songs for awhile without getting a little sad. But we'll be okay❤️
Thank you for reading this long post about my unhealthy attachment to celebrity relationships😂seriously tho, thank you for hearing my thoughts. I hope everyone is having a beautiful day :) <3

Still jetlagged and couldn't sleep, so I finally watched the KinnPorsche World Tour 2022 concert and here are some reactions no one asked for:
(kind of in order and I had a lot to say about the end apparently 😅)
Why is no one talking about the mom's performance??? Jaw. Dropped. 🤩
Barcode, Build, Us, Nodt, Job, Bas, Perth, and Tong are always invited to karaoke.
Jeff. Satur. I said as soon as he was casted that it would be a huge mistake not to have him on the OST. I got goosebumps when he (and the audience!) sang Why Don't You Stay.
MY KIMCHAY HEART! WHY DON'T YOU STAY ENGLISH VERSION?! No. Jeff took us to church on that one.
Kinn took Porsche to achieve his dream of having a beach bar. Stop! 🥺
Ex should only ever be referred to as "Daddy" out of respect. I was staring at him and only him during the Minor Family's stage. 😂
The Sailor Moon stage proves that literally all of us who participate in this industry, whether it be cast or fan, are a bunch of dorks and I love that for us.
Build and Us had me screaming my kpop stan heart out. Like y'all really going to do Mirror Mirror, Mommae, and Bang Bang Bang like that?! Back-to-back?! 🙌
Imagine being a rich boy who happens to live out his own y/n story with a boy he crushed on in college who looked like his celebrity crush and successfully got said crush to dress as that character for a live concert your company has put on after you two starred in a globally successful gay mafia drama where you two had many many spicy scenes together. Yeah, Mile did that.
Every single one of those backup dancers and singers were amazing. They did all those stunts and quick changes. Like everyone at Be On Cloud is so talented. Damn.
Build: I'm glad my mom could be here today. *Pony bodyguard strip show stage begins*
Bas and Nodt putting it out there that they're single and ready to mingle. 🤣
Us 🥺😭💕
Tong and his mom and him finally feeling like he made it! 😂🥺😭💕
Build 😭😭😭💕
Barcode, sweetie. He's going to be trouble if he ever learns just how much power his cuteness has over everyone.
I felt Bible's speech in my soul. I truly hope one day you realize that you are deserving of all of this love and more.
I started crying as soon as they showed Apo on screen. He has been through so much just to stand in front of us on that stage today. He almost gave us so many times because of how unkind the world was to him. I'm so grateful he tried and tried again. I'm so glad he met these other wonderful human beings and can have this happiness and success.
"Not 5 hours like yesterday!" *Mile sits down* 🤣 It's his company! He gets to do as he pleases!
Thank you to the translation team (and fan translations too!) for making this a more accessible show! They didn't necessarily need to provide that but I'm extremely grateful that they did that for us international fans. Thank you!
OH MY GOD CUMULUS LET'S GO!!! 🔥🔥🔥
(This concert is giving me emotional whiplash. 😅)
Excuse you, Bas, who decided you got the voice of an angel too?!?! Someone marry this man, please!
Build on that sax is everything.
Mile proving that with enough money you too can live out your true y/n wishes. But in all seriousness, Mile is multitalented and seems to be a genuine guy. And as long as he stays true to his passion with this team and not let success get to him, I will always respect and support him.
That has to be some of the sexiest drum, guitar, and bass playing I've seen on stage. Get it, kings!🔥🔥🔥
I change my mind: all of them are always invited to karaoke!
Perth hanging with Nodt by the keys! YAS! Love my besties/ghost ship.
S/O to all the fans who took kpop lightsticks to the show! I see you and love you!
The MileApo movie trailer is fucking gorgeous and is giving me goosebumps! This movie is seriously going down in cinematic history. I just know it. It looks spectacular already and I will fly to Thailand to see it without knowing any Thai just so I can appreciate it and show my support.
YO! TA DJING?! LET'S GO! TURN THIS PLACE INTO A CLUB!! 🔥🔥🔥
BRO! I would pay serious money to get into any club Ta is DJ'ing! HE IS KILLING IT!!! I WISH I WAS THERE JUST FOR THIS!
BUILD, TONG, AND US STRUTTING LIKE THAT!!! YAAASSS!!! 🙌
Okay, please, if there is any sort of higher power or diety in this world, please allow me the privilege during this lifetime to go clubbing with this cast with Ta DJ'ing. 🙏
I didn't need English subs to understand that closing. This group of people truly is something special, huh? And they really did make something special too.
The show just ended and I finally looked at the clock. I didn't even realize the show was over 4 hours long. That was amazing! I really hope they announce a US stop close to me, so I can experience this live. Wow.
I said it before and I'll say it again: KinnPorsche (and Be On Cloud) is changing and will change this industry.

part 2 reaction to wayv fifth year anniversary video!
Yangyang making me cry ;_;
Chaos because Hendery couldn't read Ten's writing
Tumblr media
因爲太吵了所以沒有時間覺得無聊 uwu
Tumblr media
Man can't even read his own writing T_T
Tumblr media
雖然我知道很難但謝謝你們理解我 ;_;
Tumblr media
Kun thanked the members and the members teasing amongst themselves over the ordering X'D
WAIT Yangyang just made that all up XD
Hendery continuing to make shit up and put words in Kun's mouth X'D
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Kun, resigned
Tumblr media
LOL so Hendery wasn't even making up the entire thing, he was just taking key words from Kun's letter and twisting them X'D
They're gonna do 1v1 compliments now? X'D
Tumblr media
Ok but Yangyang was legitimately very sincere to Dejun? :3c
Omg...Yangyang hyping up Hendery too ;_; He's like, you're a great moodmaker and you make us laugh, but you could also express yourself too
Tumblr media
Hendery: I worry that... Yangyang: No you don't need to worry
Sincere Yangyang....he's a good boy
哭! 哭! 哭!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yangyang: 隊長, 辛苦你 Kun: 不辛苦 Y'all? Why am I being so emotional???? Is it because Yangyang is always heeheehahas that this is touching? Is it because they're speaking in Chinese? idk.
Yangayng: Because everybody under you is a person who does not listen Damn, the facts
Yangyang: You don't have to worry about people not paying attention to you, because you just have to ask, and everyone will give it to you <3 CRYING!!!!!!!
Tumblr media
Yangyang did the whole "we're not very smart, so you have to tell us your feelings" thing like BRO!!!!!!!!! I WANT TO CRY!!!! Yangyang is killing me!!!!
Tumblr media
Yangyang's words for Ten are surprisingly...professional? And it makes sense. Yangyang was saying how Ten was actually their sunbae from the beginning, since he debuted before all of them with 7th sense. And Yangyang was like "where we sometimes weren't good enough, you put up with us" but like in a nicer way.
And unspoken is the fact that Ten had to learn a new language and a new set of cultural norms to be with WayV. And Yangyang was like "thank you for understanding us"
Yangyang switched to Korean to extend words of support to Ten for his upcoming solo projects :3 Being like "just call out to us when your'e lonely <3"
Yangyang said that he hadn't seen Winwin in a long time and that when he came back, he gave them a lot of strength T_T
Tumblr media
Yangyang said that they were very happy when Winwin would be openly happy with them T_T
Tumblr media
Yangyang saying that Sicheng is a gege they have to love and protect <3 T_T because he has a very unique position within WayV and that is true!!!!
Kun and Yangyang just voluntold to do speeches forever X'D
Tumblr media
LOSER
Tumblr media
Ten: We all became fat this year
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ten so anal about the candle being in the back
And then Hendery taking away the cake candle in the front
Early but that's alright
Tumblr media
GANBEI
Tumblr media
Sicheng being like "fans will often use these kinds of stickers on fanletters" like thanks for noticing dude lol
Tumblr media
YANGYANG KISS MARK WAS REAL
Tumblr media
Oh man Yangyang the MVP for this video T_T I knew he was more emotionally mature than his rambunctious on screen self, but...he was really sincere here! And I liked that everybody was seriously listening to him and understanding that those were his true thoughts. Despite his antics, he does appreciate and admire and love all of his members. !!!!!!!! YANGYANG!!!!!!!!!!

Olympique Lyonnais - Slavia Prague OLPlay Postgame Interviews
Blah blah standard disclaimers apply; I hate stans almost as much as I hate being harassed for shit; @OL Comms Dept a PSL will do nicely in this rainy weather; y'all know the speech by now.
Somewhat related to stans: van de Donk's stans are also why I didn't want to transcribe this interview, because the fetishizing of that player is gross and invasive. I absolutely hate the way some of her stans constantly harass Lyon's social admin for content, as though there aren't any other players Lyon can/should put forward on its social media account. (That being said, Melchie Dumornay's stans are not any better). Van de Donk is not going to fuck you, stop being creepy in people's Instagram comments.
Finally, I don't want to say this was a Vanessa Gilles fan blog before it was cool because it did take me a while to warm up to her, but I have grown somewhat fond of the tall awkward Canadian.
OLYMPIQUE LYONNAIS OLPLAY POSTGAME INTERVIEWS
DANIELLE VAN DE DONK OLPLAY POSTGAME INTERVIEW [IN ENGLISH]
Journalist: Danielle, first of all, congratulations. Were you expecting such a success tonight?
van de Donk: No, definitely not. But I'm very happy with the result and how eager everyone was to score a goal. That was nice to see.
Journalist: Just a word regarding the ambition of the team. With this kind of result, do you want -
[van de Donk and the studio have an exchange regarding the simultaneous interpretation]
Journalist: Just to know, with this kind of result - is a way also to show that Lyon is definitely one who wants to be the future winner of the competition?
van de Donk: Yeah, that's the thing. We want to win it, we're not here just for fun. And I definitely think that this game showed a lot of what we're able to do. So yeah, I'm very proud of the team. I think Slavia Prague did really well, but I think we were just a little bit better.
Journalist: The last game of the Champions League last season was against Chelsea. It was a really bad day. It was really a bad memory. Was it also important to start a new season with new success and just to forget the last one?
van de Donk: I don't think we'll forget that game against Chelsea. I think it's actually a source of motivation to go into every game like we did tonight. I think it's a source of motivation for this season, what happened against Chelsea.
Journalist: All the team did a good job tonight. They all had a good game. But you have been elected Player of the Match. Congratulations. Do you think that you deserve it tonight?
van de Donk: [shrugs] Thank you. I don't know, I think everyone deserved it, not just me. I think it was a very good team performance. But I'm very honored and this means a lot. I guess I'll just take it.
Journalist: You already won this Champions League with Lyon. But do you consider that this Lyon team this season is maybe the best that you played with?
van de Donk: Yeah, I think so. I think I can see the progress we have in the team and see that we're getting better and better. So yeah, I reckon this is the best team, yeah.
Journalist: Thank you so much. Congratulations. And next week you will face St Polten in front of your fans and supporters. Would it be possible to get the same score?
van de Donk: We're going to try our best. But yeah, we'll see.
Journalist: Thank you, Daan.
EUGENIE LE SOMMER OLPLAY POSTGAME INTERVIEW
Le Sommer: It's true that we didn't quite know what to expect, but I think we showed up and - yeah, we took this [Slavia Prague] team seriously and tried to play our game, simple as that, and it worked out well today. And beyond that, once we start scoring, we're going to score as many as possible. That's what it means, to respect your opponent. We have really high objectives for the season and the best way to achieve them is to play this type of game at 100 percent intensity. That prepares us for what's to come, we're constantly learning. So it was a nice win today, both with the score and the manner it was won. So that's good for us.
Journalist: Eugenie, it's been more than three years since you've scored in this competition. However, there had been a lot of goals in your very rich career. Did you miss scoring just a little bit [in this competition]?
Le Sommer: Yeah, it's true it had been a long time since I had scored in the Champions League, but it was nice to do so tonight. But there were circumstances for that, last year we were knocked out pretty early [in the quarterfinals], we were playing against some tough teams. And there was my season in the US as well, where I hadn't played the start of the season in the Champions League. But tonight I'm really happy, and scoring when there was a nice win is even better.
Journalist: Eugenie, nevertheless you're now on the podium for the top scorers in the history of this competition, having scored 48 goals in your career. You're tied with Conny Pohlers [former Wolfsburg player]. In front of you there is Anja Mittag [former Rosengard / PSG /WOB player], who has scored 51 goals. And then there is Ada [Hegerberg], obviously, who has scored 60 goals. Does it count for something in a career to leave a mark and write your name in the history books of this competition?
Le Sommer: Yes, obviously. I think that when you're at Lyon, you're already a part of history. Having won the competition so many times, I can say that I am a part of those who have left in their mark in the Champions League. But it's true to have scored so many goals, that's always nice. People keep talking to me a lot about records and statistics, but it's always nice in any case. And those are nice numbers to hear, it shows the consistency and longevity of my career.
Timothee: Good evening, Eugenie, and congratulations on your game. Do you think there is a desire for revenge in the team in terms of you might have felt like was an injustice for what happened against Chelsea last season?
Le Sommer: [hesitates a little] No, I think we have processed the injustice from what happened last season. Beyond that, today was a new competition. We mainly wanted to show that we are here, that we're not here by accident. We're level with what we want to do. We have ambitions, we're not going to hide them. And the ambition is to win this competition, it started with this first game today. And as it was the start of the competition for this season, we also wanted to start it off right. We were really concentrated on this first game, and it's good. We're off to a good start in the Champions League. Now we have to continue.
Timothee: Do you think there is a bit of a statement for the other teams when they see the result tonight? "Lyon won 9-0, Lyon isn't here to mess around." Do you think it sends a message, for a lack of a better term, to the other teams?
Le Sommer: Yeah, it counts for sure. When you win with a large score, it sends a message. Now we're focused on ourselves, we're going to take the games one at a time. And we'll see who is in front of us in the next games. But in any case, as I said, we have this ambition to win and it started today with a nice win. So we're satisfied.
VANESSA GILLES OLPLAY POSTGAME INTERVIEW
Gilles: Yes, of course, we were really unhappy with how the Champions League finished last season. So we wanted to start this competition in, how to say it - [in English] "on the right foot" [in French] so we're really happy to have won in this manner in a such a nice stadium. Away at Prague is never easy, so happy that everyone got to participate in the game, come in as subs. We also had a lot of goal scorers, which is nice.
Journalist: Indeed, Vanessa, we often highlight Lyon's offensive power this season. A lot of forwards, a lot of players capable of scoring. But it's also defensively that we often find solutions. That was the case again tonight. A brace for you. Have you ever played in a team as impressive offensively?
Gilles: [laughs] There's a reason why Lyon is the best club in the world. They're the best in the world. No, I have never been on a team with this much talent, be it offensively or defensively, or in the midfield. So it's good to be able to learn but mainly to play against the forwards every day in practice, because that's also what allows us to improve.
Coralie Ducher: Hello, Vanessa. Timothee and I noticed you're very creative when it comes to goal celebrations. Can you explain the celebration you did with Ada Hegerberg?
Gilles: [laughs] I think Ada will kill me for explaining it to you, but I think it's well known that we play Fortnite together, and it was one of our ideas for celebration. So yeah. We were able to score and do it today. It's true that I felt a bit like a loser doing it, but it was pretty funny. So yeah. [Gilles continues laughing to herself]
Timothee: Hello, Vanessa. Could you please give us a debrief on the sequence of play which lead to your second goal? Your shot from far away which was on target. First of all, I didn't know you could shoot like that. Second, do you remember what happened? I get the impression that when we were commenting, someone was asking you to shoot. Can you tell us who told you to shoot? It was a really good idea.
Gilles: No, when I did the control, I told myself I needed to shoot. But in my head I said to myself "don't shoot, I'm going to get screamed at", because it never works out when a center back shoots from far away. But it was on goal. It's true that I was pretty happy. Unfortunately for me the goalkeeper made a great save, but it led to the corner where I was able to score. So yeah, I can't complain. But I would like to score with my feet once time in my life. It was not today, but I hope it will be one of these days.
Journalist: Vanessa, congratulations. Just to wrap it up, when you score 9-0 in the first game of the competition, is the team sending a strong message to all the other title contenders?
Gilles: Yes, for sure, that's exactly why we wanted to start the competition on the right foot, especially to develop some confidence and build on this as well. The competition is long, there's some good opponents ahead, we stay humble and with our feet on the ground. We're going to continue and build on this and progress as the competition goes on.
Journalist: Thank you very much, Vanessa. And it's a date for next Wednesday, it will be at the Groupama Stadium. Fans and supporters will no doubt be expecting a lot of goals from you.
Gilles: [laughs] Ah, I don't know for the goals, but it will be a good game, we will do our best. We bring the Lyon style of play to the Groupama for sure.
Journalist: Thank you very much, Vanessa, and have a safe trip back to Lyon. We'll see you soon.
SONIA BOMPASTOR OLPLAY POSTGAME INTERVIEW
Bompastor: You're right indeed, it was the return of the Champions League. We know that competition is very dear to us. And obviously tonight, within the context of the game but also in terms of efficiency, we wanted to make a statement. So yeah, the best way as well to respect our opponent was to score a maximum amount of goals. The players took it seriously, they executed the game plan really well which we had talked about in the pregame. And then we were very efficient, as I said. It was really good.
Journalist: Olympique Lyonnais extends its unbeaten streak since the beginning of the season. It's a ninth consecutive game won. That's important as well to build confidence. But in what areas is there still room - because I know your attention to detail - in what areas is there still room for improvement in your eyes?
Bompastor: Yeah, yeah, obviously. Here we are in the heat of the moment, we'll need to see the game again to really be able to properly analyze it. But I think for the game, for me and I think the players have the same expectations as I do, we conceded too many situations against me. This Slavia Prague team was coming into our 18-yard box too much, we need to be better defensively. So yeah, we didn't concede any goals, but it was close at times. So in terms of expectations we need to do better defensively.
Timothee: Sonia, good evening. Are you a little happy to see your players manage to, despite the fact their opponent wasn't as big as one might have hoped, your players manage to treat this game as a real Champions League game in how they applied themselves, in how invested they were as a team? There were some true values and some real things which were shown by your team tonight. Those values must be nice to see.
Bompastor: Yes. We talked in the pregame and at halftime about this team's mentality and what we wanted to put forward, wanted to show our values. We talked about the collective at half time, even with a large score in our favor we wanted to continue playing like a team, keep those levels of expectations by attacking from the beginning to the end of the game. So those are things I really liked in terms of mentality, and as you said, bring a lot of confidence and allows us to maintain a really good dynamic since the start of the season.
Journalist: A word, Sonia, on the competitiveness, on the importance of being perceived as one of the favorites. People often bring up Barcelona, the title holders, Chelsea is there, Bayern [Munich]. Okay Arsenal and Wolfsburg are no longer a part of it. In what ways is it important to showcase this team's character and be seen as one of the teams to be feared in this competition?
Bompastor: Well listen, the way this team's mentality works isn't to compare themselves to other big European teams, even if we know there is competition. We're very concentrated on ourselves, tonight we really had the desire to start this competition off strongly, and we're in a group stage. For us the priority is to do well in the group stage. We are ambitious, I said it yesterday in the press conference, we want to finish first. And then later in the season, I hope we will accomplish that objective and we can turn to the knockout stages where we will most likely be up against teams with bigger brand names. But first we need to get past the group stage. We're off to a good start and we're very focused on ourselves, we know we have a lot of quality. So yeah. Today the most important thing is to be efficient and show we are capable of playing a complete game.
Timothee: A very complete game with something that's really interesting. The goals are different. The goals don't just come from free kicks, there are several different plays, different scenarios, different ways of putting the opponent in danger. That's also something that must make you happy going forward. Several things were working.
Bompastor: Yes. To be completely transparent with you we have a very specific game plan tonight. We knew the spaces would be out wide, be it on the right side or left side. So we asked the players to insist, keep pushing the ball out wide especially if it would create space. We saw it with the first goal, I thought it was magnificent, there was combination play, everything was perfect. So we were able to keep up the intensity throughout the game by keep the press in those spaces out wide, in the combination play and just the style of play in general. There were a lot of opportunities which came from crosses, which required technical ability and making the right decision. We were also taking shots from distance, that was something we had highlighted because we knew that Slavia [Prague] would have a really low block. So shots from distance can sometimes break the deadlock. The third point we made was regarding the free kicks. We had to take our time in taking them, be really accurate and aim for the correct zones. And tonight we scored 3 goals out of 9, that's a third of our goals, from free kicks. So the players really followed our advice and were really efficient. So you have to savor it because sometimes we're not that perfect in other games.
Journalist: Sonia, the next two games are at home. We play Dijon at home in the league and then St Polten in the Champions League at the Groupama Stadium. You know the fans will be wanting more goals.
Bompastor: Yes, of course. It's true we set the bar really high. But know that we really like it as well when the team is so efficient, and there are also several different goal scorers, different types of goals as you said. So we really want to continue on this dynamic and maintain that level of expectation with the offense.
Journalist: A huge thank you, Sonia, and congratulations again. We really enjoyed ourselves tonight. And this Champions League couldn't be off to a better start.
Bompastor: Thank you. I also wanted to give a shout out to Frank, one of our partners, who just lost his wife. Our thoughts are with him.
