Not me thinking of Thomally and how Thomas has not forgotten about Gally with that gun, killing Chuck. Surely, I don't obsess over Thomas and Gally's potential romantic relationship due to the idea of Gally understanding Thomas's feelings better than almost anyone. Surely I am not doing this.

#—ONE LAST TIME
r. rosehearts, l. kingscholar, / gn! reader
warnings : book 1, 2 spoilers , very long LOL , not proofread , swearing , riddle favoratism /j
"..Just one more time. Please. "
*⁀➷ a/n at the end !
Tumblr media
→ summary : You knew you weren't part of this world, he knew that very well you'd had to go soon. But he never expected it on both of your anniversary.
"Hey, [name]! Wake up!" "..'m awake 'm awake..." you say with half-lidded eyes. You turn to check what time it is and why Grim was waking you up at the godforsaken hour of 2 am. "Yo, name the Headmaster is here."
"Ah! Prefect! Finally you're awake. I'd like to speak to you in private." The Headmaster asked. "Eh? Sure." Followed by a yawn.
。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆
As you two were walking to library, you asked "Headmaster, could you tell me what you've woken me for before you drag me to do another errand of yours." "Oho, This is not an errand! This is important news for you! And how dare you think I'd place my responsibilities onto others! I take full offense." He said obviously lying. "Gah! Just tell me what you want so I can go back to sleep." You said while finally arriving at the library.
"Well, since I am so kind I have found a way for you to go home!" huh. what. "W-what..? Are you serious?" This had to be a dream. You're finally going home! "Headmaster, when am I going home? Tonight? Next week?" "Hm, I'm actually not sure. The mirror knows which world you're from but it hasn't been responding to anyone in the past few days. Not even me! Oh how it's pained me..."
Though Crowly was ranting about the mirror ignoring him, you couldn't get you mind off the new news. "Though it seems like the mirror would be fixed in a week." That snapped yout out of your thoughts. A week huh?
。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆
After finally returning to ramshackle dorm, with grim hogging peacefully sleeping on your bed, you decide to check what day it is a week from now. Checking your calendar you count seven days to- oh. oh no. this cannot be possibly happening
It was both of your's anniversary.
Tumblr media
↪ riddle rosehearts
Shit. After your discovery of last night you worried on how to tell Riddle. You knew very well he loved you completely and cherished you, you knew how much you helped him during his overblot, and you knew so damn well that he would not take it nicely.
。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆
Its now 7:49 yet you couldn't sleep one bit, I mean how could you with all these thoughts swarming you head yet these thoughts were cut off with a knock at your door. And you knew well who this could be.
"..[name]? Are you ready?" The one and only Mr. Rosehearts. Its been a habit for the both of you to do morning walks before classes start and you of course, forgot about it. "Im so sorry 'm" you were cut off with a yawn " I'm just really sleepy. I might take longer than usual so you can go ahead without me."
"Ah, no need [name]. I can wait." He said. After atleast 45 minutes of getting ready and having to spend another 5 minutes to try and make your eye bags less visible you were finally ready, "Im so so sorry to keep you waiting Riddle." You apologized while walking down the stairs.
There you saw Riddle napping, very unlikely for him. But as much as you didnt want to, you had to wake him up. Giving him a gentle shake he woke up. "..[name]? Oh, have I fallen asleep?" "Yes, yes you did riddle" giggling at him "Well I see that you're ready. Shall we go now? We are a quite late to our usual schedule." While he gestured his hand out to you
"Yes, lets go now." While smiling at him. The day went on usually, classes, Grim amd Ace bickering, and most importantly your daily little tea party with Riddle.
"Wow, these tarts taste better than before. Did Trey and something new to it?" You happily said. "U-um I actually made them this time." Riddle said clearing his throat "Really?! Wow you've improved after your oyster sauce incident." You complimented him as a tint of red covers his face. "Ahem-! Why thank you dear. Though beside the tarts I can see you didn't sleep well last night. Care to tell me what's wrong? I am your boyfriend after all."
Oh yeah. You were contemplating about lying to him or telling the truth. As much as you didn't want to worry him, you had to tell him soon.
So you explain your situation to him.
A minute of silence passes by and neither if you wanted to talk. Riddle knew he should've been happy for you but he's feeling the complete opposite. He doesn't wanna lose you, he really doesn't. But alas, all things come to an end.
"Ok then. Im happy for you." You could hear his voice crack in saying that "Riddle.. I'm so sorry. That I wont be here for you anymore, I wont be able to—" thats when you were interupted with chaste kiss on the lips.
"There nothing for you to be sorry about, my dear. You were brought into this world by accident, theres nothing suprising about you wanting to go back. I will cherish the sweet memories I've made with you."
Now that just sent the waterworks going. The fact he was so patient and understanding with you, contrary to his personality with other people.. you were definitely gonna miss him. He wiped your tears and hugged you "I believe its best to spend quality time with each other in you last few days, don't you think?" He smiled at you "Heh, you're right" you finally return him a smile
Your last few days at NRC were quite different than the ordinary school days. Cater snapping the most pictures with you, Ace and Deuce trying their best not to stress you out, and Trey baking different recipes for you to try before you go. But most importantly, Riddle constantly complimenting you, holding your hand any chance he gets, and has been bit more open to PDA. You were gonna miss all of this.
。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆
The day of your anniversary with Riddle and the day you leave Twisted Wonderland. Of course you prepared something special for him.
Matching necklaces both had a half-heart pendant with a ruby gem on top following the shape on his and the same for you except your's had a [color] gem on it. You already wearing yours while packing his in a velvet box
While packing your things, you heard a knock on the door. Fully expecting Riddle, you were quite surprised at the sight instead. Ace and Deuce holding up a banner saying 'we'll miss you :(' while crying, Trey handing you a basket of pastries, and Cater gifting you a photograph of Heartslabyul including you
You felt like crying again at the sight of your friends caring about you, you really were gonna miss them. But instead you thanked them all and hugged all of them. "Thank you! Thank you!" You exclaimed "No problem, we wanted to give you something before you leave y'know? And Riddle waiting for you at the center of thd Rose Garden." Trey said "Now off you go to your boyfie~" Cater teased.
。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆
Finally after what felt like hours of finding the center, You finally saw Riddle sitting on the bench. "Riddle!" You run up to him to hug him. Riddle, who was suprised by your sudden ambush, quickly got used to this. "Happy Anniversary, my dear." You quickly pull away to pull the velvet box out of your pocket "Happy Anniversary to you to, Riddle" you smile as you give him the box
Upon opening it, he was in awe by the necklace. "Thank you very much [name] as he gave you a peck on the forehead. And I almost forgot, here you go"
As you open the box you see— a ring! "It's actually been a dream of mine to live my life by your side, but it seems like not all dreams get granted do they? So here a promise ring. Promise me you'll always take care of your self?" "Riddle.. I-I.. Thank you so much, I love you.." you hug him as you cry out how much you'll miss him.
He cant keep up this façade any longer, he started crying too telling you how much he'll also miss you and how he loves you. After a bit of crying you were interupted with Cater's phone snapping a pic "So, so, sorry to ruin the moment but it seems like the headmaster's calling you [name]" Cater said
"Oh, okay." You remove yourself from him "Shall we go now?" giving him a smile "Of course" he replied
。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆
Finally saying your last goodbye's, it was time to go. all the times you spent here will be reduced to memories you can never relive. Shooting Riddle a soft glance, you saw his genuine smile again. For the last time.... Then you step into the mirror.
It seemed like our fairytale ended with a blank page
Tumblr media
↪leona kingscholar
Shit. Fuck. Putangina. Persetan. 他妈的. You started swearing in every language possible because out of all your days at NRC this was the most stressed you've ever been. 4:29. its 4:29 am you've been in circles for almost 2 hours. I mean, A part of you were joyed that you were finally going home! But another part worries about all the memories you've made here.
Feeling all too overwhelmed by all of this, you decide to go to your boyfriend ; leona kingscholar
。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆
After what felt like 45 minutes, you're finally at the chamber of mirrors. Stepping into Savanaclaw, you wait for the mirror to fully transport you there. Thoughts come down crashing again, what would happen, how would he react? You dont want him to overblot again. But then what wo—
Your thoughts stop as you realize you're already in Savanaclaw. Heading to the Dormleader's dorm, and knocking on the door "Leona?" You open the door and take a peek you see the lion just wake up at your knocking and voice. "Eh..? Who the hell.." he groans quietly "Leona? Do you mind if I come in?"
"Yea, sure" as he scratched his ear though pissed you woke him up it was you who woke him up tho. Doesn't mind having another thing to cuddle, right? I mean why else would you wake him up?
"Leona, could we talk?" "Go for it, I could care less" as he yawned. He expected you to just talk about his sleeping problem or his studies or something. But definitely not this.
As you explain to him your situation, you couldn't help just breaking into tears. You were gonna lose Leona, Savanaclaw, and more and that just made you break down. He was definitely not expecting you to drop a bomb on him then suddenly cry?!
He was obviously suprised by the entire situation right now, but he had an s/o to care for right now. So he gestured for them to sit on his bed. Leona is foreign to comforting others but he'll try.
"So- Um. You need anything? Water, orr what?" Instead of answering you just kept sobbing into his chest. So he just embraced you instead, soon you both drifted off to sleep.
。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆
After waking up, and quickly realizing you slept on Leona's chest you tried to escape his grasp quietly, trying not to wake him up. After finally getting him off of him planning to go back to ramshackle to get ready.
Upon opening the door, you were greeted with Ruggie there. "Leona! Wake u- woah!" "Ruggie!" You say surprisingly "Not much eh? Also could'ya tell Leona to wake up? We still gotta practice for the interscholastic games ya'know." Ruggie ask then he leaves the room.
"Leona, Leona," you nudge his shoulder "Leona! Wake up!" Practically trying to shake his whole body "..I'm awake... Why the hell are ya' wakin me up this early?" "Leona. Its 8. Also Ruggie mentioned you have interscholastic practice or something. C'mon wake up!" Shaking him even more violently when he fell asleep again "fine, fine, but you gotta come with me for wakin' me up this early" you agreed with him as you tried to drag him out of his bed
。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆
While walking towards the spelldrive stadium, Leona finally asked you about last night. "Oh, um, Crowley found me a way home." You answer quietly. He almost felt his heart drop at that. You were going home? You wouldn't be in this world anymore? "Eh, that lazy ass crow finally did something?" He was trying his best to keep cool, well both of you were nearing the stadium and he had to stay strong for his dormates
You giggle a bit a his response, not sensing his sadness. After finally reaching the stadium you wave him goodbye to return back to your dorm. After waving back, Ruggie knew there was something off about the dormleader "So, what's wrong?" The slightly startled dormleader mumbled a quick 'nothing'
So Ruggie was right, there's something wrong. It was never that easy to startle Leona. As much as he wanted to ask him, he thought it was better to keep quiet.
Nothing really changed in your last few day, except the fact Leona had started to make more of an effort to make you smile.
。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆
The day has finally come, goodbye to Twisted Wonderland and goodbye to NRC, and of course you didn't forget about you and Leona's anniversary. Though you both agreed not every year not to get gifts, you just had too.
The gift you got him is a was a threaded bracelet in savanaclaw's colors. You hoped that he'd accept it since you thought it looked cheap or pathetic (i guess?) for a prince.
Finally leaving your dorm, you and Leona had planned to meet for a bit before going. "Leona?" You knocked at his door once he opens a door, you quickly pull him in a tight hug. He laughed as he ruffled your hair. You pull away and give him the bracelet "I know we both agreed on 'no gifts' but I just wanted to- " "No need to apologize y'know? I mean I also got one for ya." He also handed you a brown varsity jacket with a savanaclaw print of the front and Leona's name on the back.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you... I'll really miss you" Leona stayed silent, it was unusual for him to. But he didn't know how to really respond, you were going away for real instead he just hugged you tight.
Finally breaking the hug, you tell him if he wants to accompany you to the mirror chamber.
。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆
Finally saying your last goodbyes to him and kissing him before you go, you finally step into the mirror
He really can't have anything huh?

22nd November 2023
Open Entry: 19:26
Tumblr media
Today was a good day.
Woke up very groggy, my voice was even huskier than the day before. What fixed it was a very VERY hot shower in the morning. I like Wednesdays because usually i dont have to rush to get things done, although this will end soon when i actually start attending my maths class. I wasnt able to prepare breakfast or lunch though, so i had to pass by a corner shop and buy 2 croissants and a strawberry yazoo (2 because the minimum card payment was 3£) (total scam but i gobbled those up anyway, so nothing was wasted in the end anyway).
School was nice, I didnt sneeze that much or anything. I honestly expected it to be way worse because of the large break and barely being able to survive cause of this virus. The only thing that really bugged me was my vision going blurry, and my eyes burning and swelling up. I was dizzy and practically blind the whole day, even started walking on the road (didnt die thanks to my friends lol).
I was alot more talkative and playful too i think. I think my friends are getting very comfortable around me, which is the best feeling ever. I value all of them a ton, so being nice to be around to them means the world to me. We had a nice walk, some nice chats. Film was suprisingly decent too. My eyes were burning up tho and i honestly felt like that clip of Dream, where he kept putting his head in his forearm. Damn Sarah for not warning us about the lights. It was comfy and warm in the class though, which is nice seeing as the outside completely contrasted it.
After the lesson i spent some time with my friends. Again, very fun. I love being around them.
The walk home honestly was alright. It was dark and sketchy as always, i kept getting weird looks from some creepy men. Might have been because i was lip syncing and drumming to Type O negative tho lol. I like listening to them when i have to walk alone in the dark, or metal in general. It makes me feel less scared. I think my favourite bit of that was the part by the park. The hill woth the forest behind it looks like something out of a fever dream. Very creepy, but in a good way sorta.
Got home got dressed, usual stuff. Mh dad called me, as he promised he would yesterday. I had a very nice talk with him, lasted about 1 hour. I love him alot, he kept telling me jokes and preaching life lessons. I ended up showing him one of my recent artworks, which he LOVED. I was so happy he did, he seemed very proud. What did make me sad is him not believing me when i said he was the best dad id ever ask for. Really got to me, because hes been his best for me, hes been the best to me, and in all honesty i wouldnt replace him with anyone else if given the chance to. Hes great, and has shown me a ton.

The date is September 13th. The time is 3:08 pm
This morning i woke up at 6:35 am and the door was open. I didnt bring it up with Niki, i think she dropped a pile of clothes on my bed. There was a pile of clothes there but I dont remeber if i put it there. I drank my customary cup of chi tea and Niki made me some sort of egg sandwich. I dont think it sat very well with my stomach. Im not going to bring it up though. I dont see her this happy usually. Maybe she’s had some sort of case crack. I dont ask her things about her work anymore.
I forgot my lunch, only remembered half way through the pass when i checked last nights blog. I didnt tell Niki, she was talking about her new favorite TV show. I dont remember what it was, i dont watch a lot of TV, especially with how hard it is to get any signal at home. It’s okay, I want to support her the best that i can.
When i got to school it became the usual waiting game. Latin, Math, History the usual trash heap. And then Academic coaching until lunch, all of which i spent in the library. Helping with yesterday’s shipment of books. Karl wasnt there but i checked in on my hours and i have close to 30 now. Adding on another 3 today to make it a total of 33 hours was nice. Two of the same number. Its nice.
After lunch at 11:23 I went to english. One of the better classes. I think i do well even if the teacher doesnt have enough space in her brain for another quiet student. I am good at english. I dont have anything due in that class. I began to organize. Something that helps me focus. Flipping through my notebook and folder nothing was out of place and so i began to sort my phone tabs.
Curiously, after flipping most closed, I found that my camera was open. I quickly flipped it away from my face. Embarrassing i know. I began to sift through my camera roll. It’s something i do a lot. When i dont have anything better to do which is most days. Besides. This blog was made for me to talk about my photos. So maybe you will be interested in the strange photo i found.
The time stamp was last night, late. 1:00 AM to be exact. The witching hour. So ironic.
Tumblr media
I am extremely worried about what this entails. I dont remeber taking this photo. I dont remember leaving my house last night. I wonder if it will be okay for Niki to lock the door more firmly.
It was fine though. English was over and i left, heading back to the library for another free period. I have almost all of my credits, and even though its scary I think i could graduate early. Maybe i could finally leave this town. Anyway i was in the library until school ended. At 2:45. I walked down the street again, taking the same route as the day before and ending at the station again.
Niki told me to wait in the receptionist room because she didnt want me in her office. Im okay with sitting on my phone. I like listening to music and sitting by myself in a loud room of strangers. Anyway, thats the dairy for today. I am free for anything, if any of the few people who are interested in me want to talk.
The time is now 3:14

FINALLY!! I've been super busy, but I can finally sit down and just enjoy myself. I'm watching both episodes- episode 6 tonight, and episode 7 either tonight or in the morning.

1:08 .....Martina?
1:27 RHONDAAAAA
1:32 and Martina :) team up of the century
1:47 "classic." God I missed Kate and Martina's dynamic
2:10 "to bring Curtain down" we love a vindictive woman
2:27 "Are you okay with this, Constance?" GOD I LOVE HER SO MUCH. she took the time to pause and get consent from the affected party. QUEEN BEHAVIOR.
2:31 "no one can punish her more than she punishes herself." Mic drop baby girl
2:33 "that's true 😥" HAHAHAHA
2:39 Italy? Somehow I did not expect that
2:52 "um... we are independent contractors....no skin in the game." "Not at all." "open to a buy out." okay this is fucking golden
3:03 LMAO HEY the gang's all together
3:17 MILLIGAN USED A TRANQ GUN SHDJDJDHJD. Even if it's just a blow dart one it COUNTS
3:21 "Hello." what an entrance
3:27 fambly 🥺
3:56 MILLIGAN WHY DO YOU RUN LIKE THAT. Boy's high-kneeing
4:15 oh my gosh you could SEE her make the choice to sacrifice herself. Tears. TEARS.
4:33 shit. SHIT. MILLIGAN.
4:52 WHERE ARE STICKY AND CONSTANCE
4:55 oh now the opening plays? After that shitshow???
6:02 this is fucking strange
6:28 twi-night by stephanie meyers, coming soon to a theater near you
7:10 while I agree that there are people in the world who refuse to be happy, people who dont want to their brain chemistry to be chemically altered with some kind of high-risk strain of hypnosis dont fall into that category
7:19 Nicholas I swear to god if you dont appreciate number two the way she deserves
8:30 I love the artistic prowess, the peels are adorable 😂
8:46 WE'RE DOING THIS??? WE'RE FOLLOWING THE DUSKWORT PLOTLINE?????
8:59 the comment about the clothes being too tight was, uh. Not necessary. Dont love that
9:46 "Good. Are you prepared to do it?" That is the question, and I'm really not sure what the answer is. I dont think Mr B knows the answer either
10:09 damn, they're really getting into it 😂
10:20 "Ha." MILLIGAN
11:09 "I'm sorry. I'm not helping." "Dont apologize, if you're feeling something, it's okay, say it!" First of all, queen behavior from Rhonda once again. Second, PLEASE. Reynie has been bottling up his feelings since day fucking one, let the boy vent
11:37 "and angry." "At what?" "Myself." Hoooo boy we're getting into it
11:51 "more. Louder." YES LET HIM YELL IT OUT
12:09 glad he's getting this out but why rip off the vest 😂😂😂 what did the vest do to you
12:10 DAMN LMAO scream it out!!!
12:26 "how did that feel?" "Good. Strange, but good." Yeah it's strange because you bottle everything up
Tumblr media
12:51 how did they manage to hitchhike on a chicken truck. How did they get here 😂
13:36 I thought people outside the compound didnt receive the technique thing, but this guy seems pretty frozen
14:21 that inn seems like it's right in front of them, why did they just notice it now lol
14:30 that front entry looks adorable.
14:38 weird vibes from these two
15:04 "a commitment to all things cozy." Cheers to that, and roll credits!
15:38 awww, I love the mug cozies :) I tried to make those one time, but you have to be very careful because if you make them wrong bc it will literally never come off of the mug and you'll never be able to get it entirely clean or dry because of the yarn LOL
16:28 how much are they about to charge these kids for room and board, because I hate to break it to you but they're flat fucking broke
16:45 dumbass didnt realize that a pushpin would keep the globe from turning. Definition of book smart versus street smart
16:59 I was thinking about this earlier, Curtain has had no interaction with Miss Perumal, there's no reason he would recognize the name or know her significance
17:23 I like how he was so sure that Miss Permual's story was a cover when it's just. True.
17:49 oh here we go, they're gonna tell him
18:11 two things:
1. Shoot your shot, you're probably doing better than Marlin anyway lol
2. I love how hard they're trying to break the news gently, but it's not going to work with the monstrous temper on that guy 🥴
18:37 is he calling the victims weak-minded? Like what's the founding in that? Also, that still makes it a side effect of the happiness cult
18:42 "and ethically, their medical condition cannot be shared with the others" he said hipaa laws, bitch
18:59 daaaamn.
19:05 "I dont trust this doctor. Find another one." Maybe that's why he hired Marlin, they're two sides of the same coin. He said the same thing
19:28 "is this the silence of consensus?" "I dont need protecting." Okay two things:
1. Kate's fierce independence is rearing its head, girl basically raised herself and now she has to get used to letting people have her back. I had to do the same thing growing up. Love to see it.
2. I'm sorry but Milligan's sass is the funniest fucking thing to me, you go boy
19:40 "I am careful." "You fell off a cliff. carefully?" book!Milligan cant really say anything about that one, but show!Milligan can 😂
19:51 "I was alone for a really long time. I had to learn to take care of myself." THERE IT IS.
19:56 "and then you just...showed up!"
Tumblr media
20:17 "ARE WE PREPARED TO WIN??" Martina I love the energy you're bringing, but please read the room 😂😂😂
20:20 LMAO YOU GO GIRL
21:00 oh baby I know you're young but I KNOW you did not just do that
21:28 I dont think roasting your hosts is going to get you very far
21:42 yeahhhh I'm with Sticky
21:50 okay so every arc is coming to a peak right now, damn
22:10 tell me this isn't about to be another tv special
22:12 ughhhh
22:38 I dont like this
22:49 creepy. I guess that's how people outside the compound get recruited
23:12 "could I have predicted that Elena would start instead of me? No one could. Because it makes no sense." I love the shade 😂 she's so passionate
23:27 "but no matter what goes down, I'm glad we got to hang out again."
Tumblr media
23:34 Madge's honor, that's adorable
23:57 "but standing by if you need me...while also giving you space" I love him so much hahahahah
23:59 THEIR FACES HAHAHAHA
Tumblr media
24:03 YES MARTINA GET THROUGH TO HER
24:18 Martina's parents not putting in effort to get to know her explains why she tried so damn hard in school- to get their attention
24:22 "Your dad's trying."
Tumblr media
24:56 god he's about to see her and not have any clue wtf is happening
25:22 that poor man
25:57 it's so alien hearing her say such high praise 😂
27:07 I'm so glad they were able to blow up at each other, and now they can actually talk through it. That's so important.
27:33 RHONDAAAAA
27:13 "I'm confused too. But I love you just the way you are." My daddy issues are QUAKINGGG.
Tumblr media
27:50 god Reynie doesnt even know and Milligan's trying to break it easy
28:14 "wait, did you just call me sticky?" That's right, she only ever calls him George or George Washington
28:33 the fucking pose 🥴 corny bastard
28:46 "my failure at the Institute shattered me as a man" really? Couldnt tell from the desperacy to prove yourself
29:18 what is that coat thing??? Fugly
29:47 he looks so stupid in the hobo clothes
30:20 why are they both so weird and stiff
30:56 and this is the reason Reynie's joke landed last season- both of their senses of humor are broken 😂
30:59 STOP SHE LOOKS SO SCARED
31:28 oh damn, how did they even know her to recommend her? That's interesting
32:01 "we forgive you." They have the creepy twin thing nailed
32:11 THE PATS

Wow, what an episode. Overall, good!! Lots of action, character arcs are moving towards resolution. Didnt love some of the side commentary, especially those couple weight jokes. That was tasteless and unnecessary. But generally things are falling into place. I cant wait to watch episode 7!

PAPER RINGS!
chapter eight; thats the point asshole!
written - 1.3k words
masterlist - previous chapter - next chapter
warnings: dying jokes, swearing!
——————————————————————————
eunbyeol wakes up to her alarm blaring, she opens her eyes to see light pouring into her room through her curtains. as she reaches out to her nightstand to turn off her alarm she notices as well the music playing softly as background noise in her bedroom. she sits up on her bed rubbing the sleep from her eyes she takes a minute and looks around the room, cracking her neck and knuckles and stretching out the remainder of the sleep left in her body. when she is finally snapped out of her post-slumber state she reaches out for her phone on her nightstand to check the time, oh its still 10am pretty early she thinks to herself. as she lowers her eyes to the date it said august 10, wednesday. eunbyeol’s eyes immediately widen as she drops her phone and gets out of bed in a hurry
“IM MEETING SUNGHOON TODAY” she says in a panicked whisper, she stumbles towards her closet pulling out dresses and skirts, “SHIT I NEVER PLANNED OUT WHAT TO WEAR” she says as she adds more clothes to a pile. as eunbyeol creates a tornado of cloth around her room, she hears her phone ding. that couldn’t be him could it? she thinks as she jumps onto her bed scrambling for her phone, morning byeol-ah! hope you didnt forget about today :) looking forward to it, im gonna run some errands with jay hyung this morning ill see you at around 12pm ;) , “TWELVE PM?? is he crazy thats not enough time to get ready!” she says burying her head into her pillow. she analyzed the notification and her eyes widen to see he sent it at 8:47am, why does he get up so early??. “morning sunghoon! goodluck with errands see you later :)” she mumbles as she types down her words and hits send. she throws herself back into bed groaning into her pillow.
——————————————————————————
“sunghoon i don’t get why you’re in such a hurry, we just have to pick up a few groceries-a..” jay says as he pushes a shopping cart down the cereal isle. “i just have something to do today! and i don’t want to be late!” sunghoon says as he looks at the grocery list and looks back up to point out the fruit loops on the shelf for jay to grab. “well you said your thing was at 12, it’s still 10:48 calm down” jay says absentmindedly as he scrunches his nose at the fruit loops and grabs cheerios instead. “like i said hyung i really don’t want to be late!” he whines as he jogs back up to jay. “now that i think about it… you are dressed kinda formal for grocery shopping” jay raises and eyebrow at sunghoon. sunghoon’s eyes widen “i just-a.. uhm ah.. i always want to look good-a you never know when paparazzi might snap a picture hyung! advanced thinking” he says with a cocky smile thinking he convinced jay with his lie. “mmm okay sure dumbass whatever” rolling his eyes as he grabs 5 packs of ramyeon, “ill let you go this once, but you’re gonna have to wash the dishes tonight” he says as he thinks for a moment and grabs 7 more packs. “THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU HYUNG OKAY BYE” as he gives jay a quick hug, sunghoon runs out of the supermarket”. jay watched sunghoon stumble out the door and lets out a soft giggle as he looks back at the grocery list and mumbles, “aish young love”.
——————————————————————————
eubyeol sets her own world record for getting ready, 1 hour 36 minutes and 45 seconds. she looks in the mirror fluffing up her hair and decides to add a pearl hair-clip to pull her look together. she made sure to add certain features that make her seem that she isn’t her, not for sunghoon but in case paparazzi spot them together. she looks at her phone 11:46am, she gets up immediately and grabs all her belongings and shoves them in her bag, she runs around the bloom dorm grabbing some of her stuff that was lying around and shoving whatever she might need in her bag, “where are you going in such a hurry” she looks behind her to see hayoon holding a mug of hot chocolate. “i uh somewhere! okay bye love you!” eunbyeol says as she messily puts on her shoes and stumbles out the door. “okay weirdo you forgot your wallet” hayoon mumbles with a roll of her eyes as she counts 3..2..1…, eunbyeol comes back and runs back in the dorm and grabs her wallet from the coffee table. “forgot my wallet okay bye love you ill text you when ill be back” she says as she runs out the door again. “love you” hayoon says as she sips on her hot chocolate.
11:57am eunbyeol was running at this point to get to the hybe building which was about 5 more minutes away. she speeds up her running to check her phone if sunghoon texted her anything, what if he went early and has been waiting for so long?? she thinks to herself. okay maybe he’s gonna be late, he’s a busy guy after all.. yeah she counters herself and slows in her steps a bit. “its gonna be fine! ill probably get there earlier now” she says to herself as she walks steadily towards the hybe building. its 12:03pm as she finally arrives in front of it, she walks near the main entrance. she looks around for sunghoon and decided to text him instead to tell him she arrived early, but before she could type anything she felt someone grab her elbow gently from behind her and she let out a yelp in surprise at the contact
“woah!woah! sorry im so sorry i didnt mean to scare you!” sunghoon says frantically as he tries to calm her down. “what THE FUCK oh my god i think i just died and came back to life” eunbyeol says as she holds her hand to her chest to calm her heartbeat. “when did you get here?” she says as she slows her breathing, “not long! i arrived just a bit before you did” he said with his shy smile. “also what did you do to your hair? you look so different i never would have known you were you” sunghoon asked pointing out eunbyeol’s now light brown hair that replaced her usual dark brown. “its a wig..” she said embarassed, “i just didnt want anyone to recognize me! especially paparazzi, AND fans” she clarified. sunghoon’s mouth fell into an o shape in understanding, “well i like this color on you, you look very pretty” eunbyeol’s eyes widen as sunghoon said that, blush immediately taking over her cheeks, thankfully not visible under her facemask. as if sunghoon knew she was flustered he smirked at her and leaned down to reach her face level, “did i fluster you?” he says with his face so close to hers, after a moment of silence eunbyeol slowly inched her hand towards his face creating some type of suspense, sunghoon’s featured softened and he awaited the contact of her hand that he thought would touch his cheek, but instead he felt a quick but painful pinch to his nose.
“you’re such a tease you know, you’re lucky we’re in public or else i wouldve pulled your hair…” eunbyeol starts walking away from him annoyed and embarassed, “WHAT THE HELL THAT HURT” sunghoon says nasally as he held his nose in pain while trying to catch up to her. “thats the point asshole!” she says looking back at him and sticking her tongue out at the end of her sentence. she then ran off to the mall laughing, “AISHH.. wait for me!” sunghoon says still holding his nose and running after her.
———————————————————————————
SYNOPSIS! han eunbyeol just debuted as a member of hybe’s first girl group BLOOM! their debut is a huge success, to celebrate hybe arranges a company party, inviting other groups to celebrate the debut success of their first girl group. at said party eunbyeol is introduced to park sunghoon, both immediately feel a connection. exchanging numbers to keep in contact the two talked everyday, getting closer with each message. as time goes by the two slowly fall for each other, but what happens when our darling eunbyeol who never puts herself first, finds out that her best friend fell for sunghoon too.

sorry to longpost complain. aita at my workplace (i kno im not im j mad)
my boss is so fucking annoying.... i had an informal performance review with him yesterday and here's how it went:
boss: how do you think youre doing?
me: um ok i think? im still getting my feet under me but im enjoying it so far [been abt 2 months since i started]
boss: yea youre doing a great job. so uh what happened w the car break in? [company property was stolen in the process]
[i explain the story; expressly indicate that i want to make it right, including fulfilling a clause in the equipment policy that says the $ to buy new equipment can be taken out of my next paycheck. boss is incredulous; says that is likely not necessary. im relieved.]
boss: so it seems like youre having trouble with [z], so i sent you some ideas.
me: i saw that email, looks great. ill take a look at those in the coming weeks. also, here's a long list of ideas that i got from a different meeting this morning.
boss: oh, looks great. ok. any other questions for me?
me: um not really. i guess i'd ask, do you want me to focus more on X or Y? [the long list of ideas i brought to meeting are all X-related]
boss: uh well i guess both when you can. we haven't had much X lately since i started running this operation, so that's welcome. feel free to work on things i cover as well [his stuff is mostly Y].
me: ok, ill start looking into Y and X things as they come around. another question, is 3 projects/week still an ok productivity level for you?
boss: uh i dont know where you got that idea. 5/week is what we all aim for. that shouldnt be a problem for you since you did 3 projects/day at your last job.
me: oh ok, ill start doing more.
boss: yea i dont know where you got that idea. i help out where i can [meaning he writes a couple 6 sentence paragraphs/week and calls those complete projects] but everyone does 5/week. that shouldnt be a problem for you.
me: its not a problem! i just didnt know. ill start aiming for that.
EPILOGUE
i turned in a project later that afternoon. the project in question follows a very contentious, months-long event that has disrupted the community our org works with and resulted in two major leadership changes. no response from boss when i notify him.
at 7pm boss replies to me:
[paraphrasing] "i appreciate you researching this and handing in a complete project, but it could have just been a 6 sentence paragraph." [end paraphrase]"
8:45 am this morning, unprompted: (direct quote, excluding brackets for privacy)
"not sure where you heard 3 [projects] a week. Even [colleague 1] does that many and he edits 2 days a week. He sometimes does 5. [colleague 2] and [colleague 3] both do 5-10 [projects] a week. Anyway, since you did 3 [projects] a day at your last job I don't think that should be a problem for you. It's really easy to do a project in 8 hours. In fact most [projects] we do should take half that time. Even long and complicated [projects] shouldn't take longer than 2-3 days."
is it just me or was this not a problem until I BROUGHT IT UP.... like u have every right to be mad at me if i wasnt doing something u wanted me to do. but you have to TELL ME TO DO IT FIRST!!!!
also we already talked about this in person??? why are you repeating yourself and chastising me???
fucking boomers man. this guy retires at the end of the year fortunately but its really annoying to deal with him. it's been problems ever since the beginning too.
and as an addendum, i have a friend who is fighting for their dreams to get into grad school right now, and im so proud and so so so jealous. and they love their job right now too! its renewing their interest in our shared field! im so happy for them but im so bitter that i made a life-changing choice a year ago and its turning out like this. i should journal! i need to journal ack

June 26th to 28th 2008 Venue: Complexe sportif Claude-Robillard Time clocked: 2:02.57 Olympic Qualifying Target Timing: 2.01.78 Location: Montreal Quebec Canada
The new Neophrene Speedo LZR racing suits were launched about a month prior to this meet and were all the buzz about how they are reducing about half a second for all the swimmers who got their hands on one. Only a selective few coaches were given these suits to help their swimmers make the Olympic cut. I asked my coach Byron Macdonald to get me one if possible. But he said it wasnt available in my size as i was a size 44 at the time. My teammate Terrence Hayes got his hands on a size 40 LZR which was his size. I asked him if i could borrow it for the 100 butterfly and he said yes. The suit took a good 45 mins to put on with the help of my brother but i knew it was too tight and difficult to breathe in but the tradeoff was worth it if it helped me make the Olympic cut. My target was to go 54.50 and qualify in the 100 itself and not leave it all to my main event which was the 200 fly. But unfortunately these suits as amazing as they were had a notorious reputation for having atrocious zips which never held together. On the blocks as the starter buzzed prepping to say "take your marks" my suits zip snapped open and my heart froze as i realised what happened. I swam the race with my entire suit filled with water way off the mark at 57.24. It was extremely disheartening and i decided to give up the idea of experimenting with any new suits and rely on my own Speed FS PRO suit for the 200 fly as that was my last chance.
100 fly results: https://www.swimrankings.net/index.php?page=meetDetail&meetId=530519&gender=1&styleId=16
Next morning woke up at 5:45 AM in my hotel room. Had a couple of bananas with energy drinks & stretched for about 30 mins preparing for the morning prelim swim. I had strategised to win the event and secure an Olympic QT i will need to secure a top 3 position in the prelims. My target was to swim 2:08 in the heats trusting that my conditioning and recovery rate helps me get ready & push through to 2:01 in the finals later in the day. Was about an hour's drive to the pool from our hotel as Montreal traffic jams are quite hectic. All through the journey had my ipod on listening to my usual rap tracks to be in the zone and suppress the butterflies in my stomach. Reached the pool and got in for the warmup. The water felt extremely light and muscles were feeling loose and fluid. This reinforced my confidence by a huge margin.
The race started out i was in the first heat. TIM RUSE of Pointe-Claire Swim Club and KISHIDA Masayuki of Japan took the lead early into the race with me comfortably in the third place. I decided to swim conserving energy i increased my stroke rate and pace around 150 meters pulling ahead of Tim RUSE and qualifying 5th for the finals swimming 2:09. Went back to the hotel had a big breakfast and a quick nap. However our swim coaches wouldnt give us a seperate room like the first two days and asked us to move and adjust with 7 other swimmers in one bed. Unfortunately some of the swimmers were given seperate rooms for their events. I knew i had a lot riding on this race to qualify for Beijing Olympics and i couldnt afford to let lack of rest and comfort come in the way of my performance. So i had to fight with other swimmers who didnt have events and ask them to move so i can get a bed to take a nap on prior to the finals. My older brother Amar who was after the same goal had swam in the morning and qualified third for the finals clocking 2:09. He couldnt get a proper place to sleep thanks to all the money saving going on by the club into clustering up swimmers so they dont have to pay for rooms. I was willing to pay more for my own room but the management and coaches refused to accomodate this request. My brother went out to Harvey's & Tim Horton's and got us both lunch which consisted of a few gatorade drinks and chicken burgers.
At about 3:00 PM we checked out of the hotel and went with all our luggage to the pool for the finals. I warmed up surprisingly feeling good but the water felt slightly cold which didnt matter much to me. I knew i am going to swim fast during the warm up but the question was how fast will it be and will it be enough? I meditated a bit after the warmup in solitude praying to the god of strength, visualizing my race and started suiting up in my FS PRO which was an old / outdated suit at the time but i trusted it'll get the job done.
As me and my brother walked out for the finals we suddenly saw the on deck commentator getting the crowd going on the last day. There were about 15000 people in attendance that broke out into a mexican wave. It was a sight to see and got me pumped up to swim the race fast. 10 mins after we were in the marshalling room getting ready to walk out to the blocks when the commentator announced the names of the swimmers walking out one by one. As our names were called out the announcer asked the crowd to give a big round of applause for us for coming all the way from India and racing in Canada. 5000 large crowd stood up and clapped for us making me feel honored and proud. It was a very unforgettable and special moment for us in our lives.
The race started with me opening out in the blistering 56.83 taking the lead. As i made the turn for the third 50 i saw the Toronto Swim Club team standing near my lane and screaming for me to bring it home. In the last lap at the 175 meters mark my hands turned to concrete but i knew it was a do or die situation. I said screw it and went 20 meters head down swim with my lungs nearing explosion but i wouldnt relent till i touched the wall, when i finally hit the last stroke i knew i left whatever i had and gave it my all regardless of the outcome. I turned around and saw that i missed the Olympic qualifying mark by .70 of a second. However i had broken the Canada Cup record and become the first and only Indian swimmer to win a gold at a foreign national championship. It was a mixed emotion of feeling you accomplised something but sad that you lost something at the same time. All my coaches, training partners came and gave me a pat, handshakes and three cheers along with the crowd as well. After coming out of the pool all i could do is take a bow and acknowledge the great people who were showing appreciation.
I had a long and heartfelt call with my dad and mentor who was back home watching the race live. He said "The only thing that matters is that you gave it your best and made your parents and country proud" In the end that is the main thing.

All in all it was a great experience and something i cherish to this day. Winning and Losing is all a part of the sport. What matters is what you take from it and how you grow thereafter. These are the experiences we impart onto our students who will be the champions of tommorrow.

p3re didnt arrive until 18:45 or something and then it took even longer until we could play because I still had to instal it (and finn was on his phone grrr). eventually we did get to play for like 5 hours-ish (until 1 in the morning. helpp), but we didnt even get that far because we were so busy doing bits every 5 minutes. we're right at the moment before the awakening happens. but yeah its fun so far :)
p3 protagonist was the only one that i didnt have a proper name for yet, so while me and my brother were thinking abt what to name him i grabbed a gum from this mentos container v
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and i was like. he looks like a mentos. lets name him mentos or something. (fyi all of the protag names we pick are food related)
his name ended up being Breezy Menthall :) we're making him act as weird as possible and the whole world is against him for some reason

After hours of "Organize your life with google calendar!" and "How to task batch" yt videos, this is the timeblock schedule i've come up with:
Tumblr media
This is just for week 1, then i'll tweak anything thats not working and fill in week 2, and iterate that for the next 5 weeks.
I have to remember that this is a guideline, its not my day set in stone, and its not the end of the world if i go off schedule. This is for when im like "ive been scrolling tiktok for 15 minutes, what should i actually be doing rn? Oh yeah, its my study x block". This is a loose schedule and i dont want to stress myself out trying to follow it exactly, eat exactly at the set times, go to bed exactly at the set time, etc.
At the same time though, im feeling upset that I havent really gotten any "real work" done yet and its already 1:45 on tuesday. Today I've showered (*let me make it clear that I added "shower" last minute as a reminder that i really needed a shower this morning, and also to test how long it'll take me for future timeblocking needs. I don't/won't only shower if its scheduled in my calendar lmao), had breakfast, and walked the dog. I had 3 tasks i needed to get done in my task items block, and didnt do any of them. Well, 25% of one task, then got stuck on hold for 20 minutes.
I even took my adderall this morning after breakfast, hoping it would help me want to get stuff done, but it didnt. I just watched twitch vods and stressed out about the tasks i wasn't doing. I was really optimistic about today too! I thought I was gonna be SO productive. I sigh a heavy sigh, check my to do list, close my to do list, and continue watching twitch, feeling like a lazy failure that will never be hardworking and driven enough to not be a lazy failure. And kind of sleepy too, even at 11 in the morning.
Only now, after walking the dog am i starting to feel the effects of the adderall kick in. Starting to feel slightly more motivated and no longer intimidated by the tasks i need to complete. I wonder if it wouldve kicked in faster had I taken it before eating instead of after? Maybe I should take it first time after waking up.
Hopefully I'll get the tasks done, get my exam done, and i'll just have to have a bit less time for learning react tonight.

BY GOD the last TWO HOURS OF MY SHIFT WERE FUCKING NUTS
so ive mentioned how thereve been like five fucking people closing at night now and how great that is but the hours for day time havent picked up which makes NO SENSE bc obviously the day is when we have the most customers. our peak is like 12-2pm. meanwhile we barely get anyone coming in at night
so i get off my break and i have to go cover the cashiers 15 but that 15 turned into fucking 45 minutes because the line was god damn insane. like with maybe halfway thru her break, literally TWENTY PEOPLE all went on line at once i am not exgagerating. the line went from two people waiting at the end to twenty people overflowing out the queue line. and then i quickly realized it was past noon when all the morning truck people left so it was just me, the cashier, my one manager and the store manager. so i had to call for backup and since the normal cashier was on break that fell to the one manager
and then i have an online return that i needed her override for so she had to help me with that while in the middle of trying to get tje line down. then the normal cashier comes back from break and is like wow this is nuts do you want me to open a third register. and apparently we only do more than 2 registers during seasonal so we were literally only able to do the 2 so she took over from my manager from there. and then some guy needs to do an order pickup. theres no handheld up front to do that for. i have to run to the back to grab one, leaving the cashier alone for a few minutes. i come back. i cant find the packages in the cabinet where they normally are. manager goes to check in the back if they got dropped off to the wrong location. Not in the back. finally store manager responds and says oh theyre up front. us three are like what rhe fuck no they arent. so he comes up to show us and well he put it in a different cabinet for some reason. Like as if we’re supposed to know that the package was in x cabinet when theyre supposed to go in y cabinet. and all thats happening while the line is fucking nuts and me and the cashier are trying to ring people up while also trying to get this guy his fucking packages. hence why i didnt get off register until forty minutes after i started.
so then me and her and the lower manager realize that someone was supposed to come in at 12 who would then be relieving the cashier off register when she leaves at 1. but she never came in at 12. so manager goes to check if the schedule got updated. apparently the other cashier was moved to start at 2 now. so theres a gap from 1-2 that i apparently have to cover. okay.
so i go back to doing truck but then five minutes later im called for backup again so i only get off register literally 8 minutes before 1pm so i have to go run and put my cart in the back instead of keeping it on the floor. and then i have to go back on register again basically
and then when the cashier left it was just me and the two managers. but then the lower manager went on BREAK AT 1PM. SO IT WAS JUST ME AND THE STORE MANAGER BASICALLY.
so like every fifteen minutes im calling for backup and he has to ring and it was just crazy and then at some point some fucking child approaches me while im ringing a lady up and hes like. can you help me i need help. with like the biggest doe eyes and soft voice. and im like. woah why does this unaccompanied child need help so im all concerned im like yeah hey whats up what do you need? and hes just like. Wheres your pencil sharpeners. so i tell him where and im like oh i guess hes just asking me for a parent or something. but then hes like. can you show me. and im like. im literally in the middle of ringing someone up sorry i cant just like. Leave. and the customer i think was a teacher and she literally was like “the nice lady’s busy right now she cant go help you” in like a teacher voice and then she was laughing with me over how this kid just expected me to drop the entire line to go help him find the pencil sharperner. and the kid is apparently translating for an adult who is just standing around in the background then and im like ok i can go call my manager to help you on the floor if my verbal directions arent enough but then the adult got impatient and just kept wandering around hurriedly so my manager couldnt find him it was like wheres waldo over the walkies for a solid five minutes all while the kid keeps approaching me asking me to abandon my register to get him the pencil sharpener and all of this is while i have a line of at least 3 people constantly like as soon as i finished ringing one person up another went on line and so all the customers are just watching me fruitlessly try to help this kid and his. relative??? idk. and then they finally grt the fuckinf pencil sharpener and then the adult just CUTS THE LINE. but it was just one pencil sharpener whatever so i was just like. whatever. cuz the kid is clueless and the adult doesnt speak english so im not gonna try to tell them to go to the back of the line when i already have a line in the first place but luckily it was only two people so i just apologized to the next people for it
and then as im leaving this lady comes up to do an online order pickup so i was like alright whatever i dont mind doing this quick but then shes like. ok theres my order i need to pickup but also THERES SOME WEIRD PERSON OUTSIDE APPROACHING PEOPLE WITH KIDS. asking if we want to see something inside her car. and i was like oh my god HUH??? so i got her the order and then i was like well i’ll tell my store manager then oh my god. so i did and hes just like. Theres nothing i can do about it. LIKE OKAYYY

roommate!heeseung pt. 1
Tumblr media
pairing: roommate!heeseung x female reader
genre: mini fic(?), fluff, comedy, tiny angst(one little sad part)
warnings: cursing!!! 
word count: 4.3k
description: i guess you just didnt realize you were in love with your roommate...... who has a girlfriend
————
“ow!”
you had just hit heeseung over the head after he said he would burn all of your plushies
your Precious. Plushies
hell no you’ve been collecting these since you were 11 no way in hell heeseung would threaten ur babies
you rolled your eyes and started to walk to the kitchen to get a snack
stupid heeseung
hes always saying stupid shit🙄
before you walked out though you noticed the look on his face
like he was contemplating something
“y/n... can you do me a favor?” he nervously uttered out before you walked out his door
“....what kind..?” you furrowed your brows
why was he being so cryptic
“uhh i need you to get flowers and chocolates for me from stacys....”
STACYS?????????
stacys was this fancy store 45 MINUTES AWAY..
“ur fucking serious?” you deadpanned
this was something new
in all your 8 months of living with him he had never asked you of a favor this big
for context.., you had moved to this city apartment for college 8 months ago but you couldn’t afford it without a roommate
but luckily you overheard a certain boy praying for an apartment while you were on campus
and you guessed it!!! it was heeseung
you two clicked easily and you were very thankful he was your roommate
after 4 months of living together he told you he got a girlfriend
you didnt really know about his campus life since you didnt have classes together and you never saw him walking around
you dont know why you were surprised when he told you... i mean have u seem Him.....
but nonetheless
u were like “Omg heeseung!!! thats great<3” like the supportive friend u were
yeah and that was that
you didnt meet the girl until another month later
Now that..... that was an experience......
FLASHBACK WHOOSH
*knock knock knock*
who tha hell was knocking at 7 in the morning.........
you staggered your way over to the front door with your matching hello kitty pajamas
and u open the door to see a blonde Lady who looks around your age
Why did u forget to look thru the little peephole in the door...... ur probably just tired whatever
anyways ur like
“uhm....”
and shes like
“? who are you.?”
and ur like
??!!?[\^€]€\¥,_[+{*}*
“i live here....”
and shes like
“?...? oh sorry i thought my boyfriend lived here..”
and ur both just standing there like ;-;
shes all dressed up and u look like a childs room threw up on u
And thats when it hit u
“OH”
“are you heeseungs girlfriend?!!???” your hand raises up to point at her unconsciously
“ yes.. i am” she looked so lost it was so funny
“oh then you have the right place im sorry! hes my roommate” you scurry back into the apartment, gesturing for her to come in and close the door behind her
“what? he didnt tell me had a roommate..”
poor girl 😭😭😭
you quite literally pounce into heeseungs room and smack him while shes still standing outside awkwardly in the living room
“fucking idiot” smack to the face
“wake up” smack to the chest
“heeseung i swear to god” you shake his head
“are you fucking dead???? wake up!!!!” you pinch his ears really hard
that woke him up
“Ow ow ow ow OWWW y/n what the hell???” his eyes are forced open but theyre squinted due to the sunlight
“your girlfriend is here” you whisper-yell at him
“what???” he sat up so quickly you almost laughed
you were 90% sure she heard everything
oh well
his problem
he just stares into space for a second before his eyes go wide
ur just sitting on his bed waiting for him to do something like Uhhh
“shit i planned a date today oh my god” he jumped up from his bed and hastily told you to “stay put” before throwing on a hoodie, walking to see his girlfriend, and slamming his bedroom door leaving u sat on his bed
yes u were nosy Muahahahahah
so u pressed ur ear against the door to listen to their conversation
“sora, im so sorry i slept in late i promise ill make it up to you please baby dont be mad”
you had to stifle your laughter with your hand
God this was gold
“heeseung why didnt you tell me you lived with a girl.”
oooooooh hes in trouble you laugh to yourself
“ah about that.. im sorry i didnt tell you.. dont worry though, you know i only like you! shes just my roommate”
ouch
Why did that hurt 😪
“whatever heeseung.. ill call you later” and then you heard the door slam
already???? you were ready to get ur popcorn :///
you didnt even notice it had been a while before the door opened with you still leaning on it
boom u fell on the floor
“ow”
“shut up” he said before jumping face down on his bed
you stand up to lean against his door again, staring pitifully at the boy
“you okay?” you cross your arms
“mmm” he mumbles into his pillow
“you know i think i deserve a treat for being woken up at 7am on a sunday by your little girlfriend”
“little? shes taller than you” he turned around to lay on his back and chuckle
“oh so you’re making jokes right now when your girlfriend might break up with you?” you glare at him
“shes not gonna break up with me over something this little” he rolls his eyes and grabs his phone from his nightstand
“you know you’re a little piece of shit heeseung!” you yell out to him after you walked out of his room
“how?!” he yelled back
“treat your girlfriend better!”
he kept his mouth shut after that
yeah you two didnt talk for the rest of the day because he stayed in his room sulking or whatever
fast forward to now
Right after he asked u to get him the chocolates and flowers
“please y/n, sora is gonna be here in 2 hours and i need to get everything ready and i dont have enough time to do everything” he begged
WITH THOSE CUTE LITTLE PUPPY DOG EYES OF HIS GOD
“do you really need them from stacys though???” you whined
he just huffed and glared at you “yes! sora only likes them from there.”
“nuh uh mister dont give me that look” you narrow your eyes at him
he immediately stops his glare and tries to look neutral
it almost made you laugh
you just looked at him for a few seconds before giving up
“fine. but what am i getting in return?”
his eyes lit up and traveled up as he was in thought
“hmmm ill buy you food whenever you want for a month”
Wow
“woah thats more than i bargained for but deal!” he didnt realize that until after you shook his hand, very enthusiastically might i add
Lol
so now you were on your way home with the MASSIVE bouquet of roses and beautifully wrapped chocolates sitting nice and snug in the passenger seat of your car
these two things costed $115
oh well its heeseungs money not yours
you found it amusing because heeseung was nowhere near rich so where was he finding this money to blow
over an hour later and ur finally back home
u open the door
u struggled very much btw
almost dropped everything haha
but woah......
your eyes widened and your mouth fell open
“heeseung? you didn’t tell me you two were having the date here..”
as soon as you walked in you smelled a pretty scent and the lighting was dim
it was beautiful
there were candles lit on every surface
rose petals were scattered messily everywhere
the two seater dining table was topped with elegant decor
there was quiet jazz music playing from his speaker
the familiar aroma of your favorite food hit you
standing there in your apartment didnt feel real
it felt like you were in a dream
you couldnt believe your apartment could turn into room from a fairytale
you were never one to be into disney princesses and fantasies
but for the first time ever you almost wished for a prince charming yourself
you almost got lost in a trance
and then....
the boy himself walked out
donned in an all black suit with a sliver of the white undershirt peeking underneath and the white tie
his bangs were covering his forehead and you noticed he styled them to be wavy
he had his earrings in and rings were present on 3 of his fingers
he looked absolutely dazzling
you dont know how or why.. but your heart began to race
why did this feel like it was for you...?
you wanted to be his disney princess
staring at him wistfully, it felt like time had stopped
“oh thanks y/n, i almost thought you ditched me” he chuckled quickly
he was frantic and out of breath as he snatched the things out of your hand
“right!” he began as he sped around the room setting everything up
“im sorry but i forgot to ask if you could leave for today. im such an idiot, im sorry y/n.. you can stay at a friends house or something for the night?” he didnt even look at you as he perfected the chocolates on the counter and the plates on the table
you couldnt help but notice your heart clench and your stomach twist at his words
you were still glued to your spot infront of the door
“o-oh! yeah, okay thats fine ill get my stuff now” you scurry to your room
you speedily threw some clothes and necessities in a bag before walking back to him
“hey..”
he didnt look at you
“helloooo”
“heeseung” you poke him
he finally turned to you
“sorry what?” he gazed down at you with big eyes
“its okay.. just wanted to let you know im leaving now” you give him a small smile
“oh right! thank you y/n again” he grinned
his pretty smile
“you look great by the way... have fun” you manage to say before slipping out the door
you didnt let him reply back because if you stayed in there a second longer you think you would’ve fallen in love with him
where did these feelings come from...?
you smack yourself on your forehead as youre walking down the steps to your car
ur probably just feeling like this because no man has ever done anything like that for u
and seeing it in real life made u want a bf 😟😟
yeah... thats it
so now ur at sunoos house
a close friend from your finance class
he lives in his parents house but theyre never home so he basically owns the place and doesn’t have to pay for it
Yeah u kinda envy the boy
but you love him because hes great
“y/n ..do you like him????” sunoo gasps
you guys are watching tangled for the 10th time and you were explaining what happened back at your apartment
“what? where did you get that from?” you snort, your eyes still focused on the movie
you could literally feel his eyes piercing into your soul with that stare
“the way you were telling me that story.... you sounded a bit jealous if i do say so myself..” he raises his eyebrow and leans back into the couch
“i do not like heeseung, sunoo” your eyes roll and you turn to look at him finally
he has a little smirk as he looks at u suspiciously
“hmmm okay, i get it” he raises his arms in defense and surrenders “you don’t wanna talk about it”
you scoff and laugh at his actions “you’re so annoying”
so ..*time skip* lol
you slept at sunoos for the night
it wasnt anything new bc u used to stay at his alot while u were in the process of moving into your apartment
one of his guest rooms is practically urs bc u have some decorations and spare clothes there :P
when you woke up that sunday morning you realized you forgot to set an alarm
so now its like 11am
well its not like you needed to be home so you shrugged it off
“morning” u said to sunoo when u saw him sitting on the couch watching wreck it ralph
boy loves his movies
“when are you going home?”
“wow rude.... not even a good morning back??” you found him amusing
“sorry, good morning. when are you going home” he turned his head to look at you
it made you laugh
Sunoo is so funny u love him
“do u wanna get rid of me that bad??? i hate you”
“ni-ki and jungwon are coming over today and i dont want you smothering them like you always do” he playfully glares at you
NI-KI AND JUNGWON???!!!??!!!!!!
“MY BABIES????” you exclaim and jump on the couch next to sunoo
“yes” he exasperatingly says
“now leave before they get here”
“WHAT?? no im staying because i wanna see them”
“NO!!!! now get out of my house y/n”
“why not?!!???! sunoo please i bet they miss me so much”
“y/n please.. they do NOT miss you”
“they literally do i always make them cookies and theyre like y/n ur so cool we love you”
“u mustve been hallucinating....”
“sunoo please please please i dont wanna go home” u tried to muster up the cutest puppy dog eyes ever
he looked at your face for a moment
“no u look ugly”
“YOU’RE SO ANNOYING” you push him
“theyre coming back tomorrow you can come then! today is boys night”
“boys night?” you snort “what the fuck are u kids gonna do that i cant be around for?”
“SHUT UP Y/N get out of my house!” he just starts to drag you out of his house himself
“ow oW OKAY fine ill leave... have fun doing.. whatever you’re gonna do” you grab your bag and start to head for the door
sunoo slams the door in ur face after he says “bye dont come back please” 😭😭😭
“asshole!” u yell to him thru the door
you just huff and stand on his porch for a second
you wonder if heeseung still has his girlfriend over and decide to text him
y/n🦧: hi can i come back home
welp
now ur sitting on sunoos porch waiting for a reply
10  minutes pass while ur scrolling on your phone and still no reply
you look up when you hear the front door open
“why are you still here?” sunoo frowns at you
“heeseung didnt answer my text and i dont wanna go back if his girlfriend is still there” you reply
“go home y/n plz.... i lied jungwon and ni-ki arent coming over.. my grandparents are” he tries to shoo you away
“why would you lie about that” you laugh
“theyre really mean! but you can come back tomorrow because the boys are actually gonna be here.. now go because my grumpy grandparents are gonna be here in like 5 minutes” he guides your shoulders down his porch
“ugh.. if his girlfriend is still there its your fault” you pout
“wha- how is that my- whatever y/n go home!!!”
when you drive off you dramatically wave your hand to him trying to show how desperately you did not wanna go home
sunoo just giggles and runs back inside
you drove home extra slow Lol
and now you were at the door contemplating whether or not you just make a run for it
but u said fuck it because u missed the comforts of ur own room
well u knocked a little before unlocking the door
how embarrassing to be knocking on the door of ur own home 💀
you didnt get an immediate answer so u just stood outside in the apartment hallway....waiting....
after waiting for like 30 seconds (because ur impatient) you knock again
well i tried to be nice you thought
you finally gave up and unlocked the door with your keys, kind of slowly opening the door to peek in
hmmm.... nothing
the sun was emitting some rays of light through one of the windows but none of the lights were on
and why was there food still on the table..?
you were kind of afraid to go see heeseung 
but
you did notice one thing
there wasn’t a pair of shoes u didnt recognize sitting on the rack by the door 
so... is his girlfriend not here or did she bring her shoes to his room lol..
“hello?” you unconfidently called out to nobody in particular
no answer
you slipped your shoes off quietly and tiptoed towards the hallway that included both of your rooms across from eachother
the kitchen and living room looked untouched 
to describe u being confused would be an understatement
you set your bag down on your bed and then made your way to heeseung.. just to check on him
you were genuinely so confused rn
you thought they would be cuddling on the couch or talking in his room or something but it was dead silent throughout the house
“heeseung?” you soft knocked on the door of his bedroom
surely he couldnt still be asleep.. it was noon on a monday and heeseung would normally be up by 10 because he said he would “start being a more productive man” as he said it
you always laughed at him because he used to wake up at like 3pm on days he didnt have class
anyways you didnt get an answer which was slightly concerning because you didnt forget to take note that you saw his car in the parking garage when you arrived
“i’m coming in” you called out to him before twisting the knob and pushing the door open
you realized you might be crossing a line and he’d get upset at you for invading his privacy but you were honestly worried for your friend
at first you didn’t see him
his room was empty, not a single person in sight
that is until you further examined the big lump on his bed
“heeseung? what...” you walked over to the lump that you only knew was him because you could see a bit of his hair peeking out from the top
“um.. am i interrupting something..” you awkwardly said, debating whether or not to go closer
he wasn’t saying anything so you guessed he was sleeping
how odd for him
you wanted to just check real quick and then you’d leave his room
so your feet padded softly against his wooden floor as you made your way over to him
and you bent down a little to kind of tug the huge blanket away from his face
as you got closer you also noticed his girlfriend wasnt here
the first thing you noticed was that he was definitely not asleep
your eyes widened and your hand instinctively went to his face to cup his cheek
“are you okay?! why are you crying?” you quickly asked, your eyebrows were furrowed in worry
in your months living with him you have never seen him show any emotional feelings in front of you and it almost made you panic
his eyes locked onto yours before he looked away from you and closed his eyes
he still hasnt said anything and you really didnt know what to do in this situation
you took your hand off his cheek before sighing
now you’re just sat on the side of his bed just looking at him.. wondering what to do
you were sure he wasn’t sleeping even though his eyes were shut and he wouldnt move
but you sat there for 5 minutes and he didnt seem to mind
“sora broke up with me” 
he finally broke the silence
...
you didnt know what to say
you couldnt ask if he was okay when he obviously wasnt
“do you wanna talk about it? you looked over to heeseung to see him staring at you
“not really” he broke eye contact once again and looked up towards the ceiling
“later i will.. just not now” he breathed out
you nodded at that, understanding his situation
you felt terrible for the boy
his eyes were red and his voice was all nasally like he’d been crying
“i’ll leave you alone now..” you patted his big blanket fluff to lighten the mood and walked out his stuffy room
hours had passed while he was stuck in that room and you didnt know what to do 
it was 7pm already
you spent the day watching tv in the living room 
but it was dinner time and you made ramen (his fav!!!) in hopes that he would come out of there
“heeseung you’ve gotta eat” you knock on his door again
you had told him to eat at 2 earlier but he insisted that he wasnt hungry
you were surprised when he instantly opened the door and your hand was still in midair as you were knocking
if your hand moved an inch you wouldve been knocking on his chest which you found very funny but you didnt think this was the right time for jokes
“hi” you looked up at him
he was wearing his purple beanie with sweatpants and a long sleeve shirt
he definitely looked better than he did this morning which you thanked god for
“hey” he gave u this look :]
“you okay? i made ramen.. can you smell it” you kinda giggled
“yeah, thanks” he tried to send you a small smile which you were thankful for
“okay well come eat because i worked very hard on it” you turned on your heels and went towards the tiny kitchen island with two seats
he followed you and sat next to you as you gave him his bowl and chopsticks
“bon appetit!” you clapped your hands before digging in
you were proud of urself ngl... the ramen was smacking
“thank you y/n” he said softly
you refused to admit it but he was.. So Cute
“no problem, just eat” you grinned
and you two ate in silence for a good 15 minutes
he said he would do the dishes after you were done which was relieving because you wanted to go jump in your bed and watch tiktoks very badly
there was a slight awkwardness in the air too so you wanted to let that cool off too
so now you were cuddled up in our bed with your phone very close, almost too close, to your face
and you could hear the sink running as heeseung washed the dishes
you silently prayed he was feeling better and that he would be over it soon
the sink turned off and you could hear his footsteps coming towards the hallway
what surprised you was that you heard knocks on your bedroom door
“can i come in?” he asked
“yeah its open” you replied
u had to get out of ur blanket cocoon :///
you watched him stride over to sit next you on your bed
he even got under the covers and laid down like dang lmao u getting comfy i guess
“whats up?” you were sitting up while he was laying on your pillows
“so.. she broke up with me last night” he spoke while hugging one of your plushies
oh OHH so this is what this is about
“oh.. are you feeling better now?”
“yeah i think.. we only dated for 4 months but i really liked her....”
“did she say why she did?” you asked
“she said she found someone else. i dont know if you know this but shes a year older than me and she told me she wasnt into younger guys which doesnt even make any sense because her ex was younger than her too and-”
“okay heeseung” you laugh “people are like that, you just gotta deal with it”
“yeah yeah, i know” he sighed “i dont know.. i dont know if im sad i lost her or if im sad over the fact that i dont have a girlfriend anymore”
“was she your first girlfriend?”
��me? y/n” he laughed “ive had plenty before”
“oh” you didnt even wanna ask
“why? have you never had a boyfriend or something?” he joked
“no....” you trailed off, unable to look him in the eye out of embarrassment
you were never even embarrassed about that but for some reason admitting it to heeseung made you shy
“what?! no way” he was actually shocked
“yes way now can we change the topic this is terrible” you roll your eyes and shove a plushie in his face
“awee little y/n” he teased you
“get out” you snickered
“okay okay fine.. but yeah i think i’ll be okay. she broke up with me as soon as she got here so all of my planning was for nothing. i think that was what devastated me the most, i had no one to eat with”
you wanted to yell I LITERALLY EXIST soooo bad
Why is he so stupid....... 
“thats sad...” you said
you wanted to laugh at your reply bc what else could you say
“yeah anyways you dont have to worry about taking care of me while im sulking or whatever im cool now’
“well that was quick.. you were acting like a baby this morning now ur this tuff guy” you tease
“yeah yeah i dont even know why i was acting like that” his cheeks went pink
“im just kidding” you send a small smile his way “you know im always here for you right? dont be afraid to be a little emotional sometimes” you reach over to pat his head
“thanks y/n” he smiles “you’re a really great friend”
ouch
yeah.. friend

chapter II
Tumblr media
-> sally face x f!reader
-> enemies? to lovers
-> previous | next
cw: drugs, cigarettes, abuse, panic attack
*does not follow original plot of sally face*
Tumblr media
summary: larry knocks (y/n) off her feet, literally. later, him and sal come to apologize, bearing a gift of homemade lasagna. sal and (y/n) bond over their similar bodies. his eyes look familiar.
Tumblr media
The sound of your skateboard and the wind brushing past your ears practically deafened you, which allowed you to think in peace. Maybe you’d survive in Nockfell.
Maybe it wasnt as bad as you made it. You’d grow close to the old apartment, push through school, leave your mother as quickly as possible, and start fresh somewhere across the world. The only thing that you wouldn’t get close to is the forest surrounding Addison. It loomed over you, day and night, dewy pines poking out at you like a warning sign. Maybe mom moved here just so she could torture you with the forest. Remind you of what happened.
Loud footsteps joined the wheels of your skateboard. You looked back, and on your trail were those two kids from the apartment. The tall one’s face was almost right in yours. You let out a small yelp as your skateboard hit a rock and sent you tumbling to the ground, completely destroying your knees in the process.
“Shit!” larry yelled out in surprise as he dodged the skateboard that went right between his legs.
You quickly reached out to your head, trying to calm the searing pain pulsing through it. What the fuck just happened?
“What the fuck?” you groan. The blue haired boy, sal, grabbed your skateboard and came up close to you. pulling down his sleeves, he quickly grabbed your knees and covered them, soaking up the gushing blood.
“Larry!” sal turned around to face him. You winced as the fabric of his sweater clung to your knees. Your hands grabbed his to pull them off but you froze. They were soft and cold, almost like snow. How would it feel to hold them longer? Would you warm them up? or would they freeze you?
What the fuck?
You snapped out of your trance and moved them off your knees. You scowl at larry and pick your skateboard back up.
“Nice job, asshat.”
His face flushes at the insult and he moves back. Sally stands up and offers you his hand, but you dont need his help (obviously a lie, your entire body was aching like a scale 8 earthquake). You shove yourself up and wipe your burning palms on your jeans. With your feet back on the skateboard (it took a few tries to get up because your knees kept buckling), you flip them off and begin skating back to addison. You just wanted a nice fucking stroll alone, why were these fucks literally everywhere you went?
It’s around 12:45 now. You came home, took a bath, bandaged up your knees and took some tylenol. Mom was already in her bedroom and there were some leftover beer bottles on the coffee table, so she probably wouldnt wake up anytime soon. you quickly trashed the bottles and decided for a quick nap on the couch, since your room was… occupied. your pyjamas, for now anyway, consisted of an oversized grey ac/dc shirt and some soft-ass spandex shorts.
“finally, a fucking break from this shit.” a content sigh escaped your lips as you threw yourself onto the cold couch.
a few knocks sounded at your door.
“(y/n)? it’s uh, it’s sal. and larry.”
“fuck.”
THEY’RE LITERALLY EVERYWHERE WHAT THE FUCKKKK AGGHHH WHY CANT THEY LEAVE YOU ALONE THEY ALREADY BUSTED YOUR KNEES LIKE WHAT
“coming.” you mumbled angrily even though they couldn’t hear you.
the blinding fluorescent lights of the hallway hit you as you opened the door. along with them came the smell of freshly baked lasagna. your eyes widened for a second, before looking up at sal. he stared at you, taking in your appearance. your hair was ruffled, eyes blinking sleepily as they adjusted to the light. your shirt had ridden up and showed a bit of your stomach. he blushed as you pulled it down and glared at him, a slight tinge of red on your own cheeks.
“larry.” he nudged his friend. the brunette walked up in front of sal, holding a pan of lasagna.
“listen man, i’m sorry. i didn’t mean to fuck up your knees n shit. jus’ got excited cause of your sanity falls shirt. can we, uh, can we come in?”
Slam.
larry quickly jumped back in surprise.
“i guess that means no.”
you yelled out a quick ‘wait!’ as you cleaned up your apartment and hid your mom’s weed and other things. god, for a grown woman, she didn’t know how to clean for shit.
opening the door back up, you waved them inside.
“god, you smoke a lot.” larry coughed a bit at the smell of your apartment, which earned him a shove.
“sorry! god, sal, so mean.” he mumbled.
“s’ my mom. i only smoke outside. uh, take a seat on the couch, i’ll warm up the lasagna.” you pulled it out of larry’s hands as they both took a seat on your makeshift bed.
sal shifted. “you sleep here?” he asked, confused. maybe your room was being used as storage.
“for now. there’s some weird ghost shit going on in my room. some fucking preppy ghost woman keeps squealing when i come in.”
ghosts? you believed in ghosts? maybe they’d be able to take you on their expeditions! sal perked up at the thought of you becoming friends.
“you believe in ghosts?”
“well, i saw one, so what else could it fucking be?” you chuckled as you shoveled the now warmed up lasagna onto three plates. sal noticed and his eyes widened.
“oh, no, i- i don’t want any-” he waves his hands.
“you’re having it, i don’t care.”
larry laughs as you shove it into their hands.
“feisty, aren’t ya?” he stabs some and shoves it into his mouth. you sigh and lean back into the couch.
“you guys go to the school here, right?”
larry nods. “yeah, there’s only one school in nockfell.”
“eww, larry face, don’t chew with food in your mouth.” sally laughs. in the corner of his eyes, he thinks he can see you smile.
“yeah, we go to nockfell high. i’m assuming you’re going there too.”
“mhm. starting monday. hurry up and eat, i’m not warming it up again.” you grumble. sal doesn’t move. “god, okay, i’ll look away. i have to go clean this thing anyway.” you wave your prosthetic’s fingers.
“oh, yeah, you also have a prosthetic!” his face shifts into a child-like curiosity. it’s a face that you’ve seen before, and it makes you giggle a bit every time. you place your hand on his lap. sal does a double take and his mask raises a bit.
“you wanna touch it, don’t you. go ahead.”
“damn, sal, you get all the ladies. leave some for me.” larry chimes in, hand on his forehead in mock sadness. he chuckles.
“you gonna touch it or what?”
“uh, yeah.” sal slowly lowers his hands onto it. he traces your fingers, flexing them every once in a while. he flips your palm and looks at the graffiti ‘s’ you drew on it.
“when was this?” he looks back up at you.
“grade 10, two years ago. got bored in class and accidentally took out my sharpie instead of a dry-erase marker. god, my mom was mad.” you chuckle at the memory. she didnt let you back in the house for two days. you had to camp out in the shed, where you stored your extra food so she wouldn’t steal it.
sal hummed. “what about this one?” it was a big ‘SF’. was it for his name? of course not, she didn’t know you back then, moron. still, it warmed him up a bit.
“not for you, that’s for sure.”
“damnnn, savage!” larry put his plate down. “mind if i get more?”
“larry, we brought it for (y/n).” sal scolded.
“nah, i don’t mind. knock yourself out.” you nodded, continuing your conversation with sal.
larry trotted towards the kitchen.
larry’s point of view:
sal and (y/n) seemed to be getting along quite well. good for him, really. we might be able to coax (y/n) into our friend group. i didn’t like her at first, but i think she’s just a little stand-offish. anyway, back to the lasagna. man, i wish mom would make it more often. she only makes it for guests. where is it? oh, there. (y/n)’s going to nockfell high, right? probably should tell her about travis.
your point of view:
sal was still tracing your arm, running his pale fingers over where the prosthetic connected to your skin. the doctors could have chopped your arm off completely, up to your elbow, but you wanted to salvage as much as you could, so it stops mid-forearm.
“do you take it off often?” sal hummed. it felt a little intimate, tracing your prosthetic. it was like soothing a part of your body that was already gone. what? what was he thinking?
“mmm, i take it off every night. if i leave it on, i could get rashes ‘n shit. rashes aren’t fun. ‘m assuming you take yours off every night too.” he nods.
“i don’t like taking it off during the day. phantom limb shit, you know? it hurts a lot.” you grumble.
“got the lasagna. since you’re going to nockfell, ‘should probably tell you about travis.” larry sits down. “he’s your typical stick-up-the-ass bully. doesn’t really like sally face ‘n our crew.”
“yeah. just ignore him and you should be fine.”
“we‘ll protect you.” larry swings an arm over your shoulder.
huh? you can protect yourself. does he think you can’t? is it because of your prosthetic?
“i can do it myself, you dimwit.” you push his arm off your shoulder.
“time for you to leave.”
“woah, dude, calm down-” larry’s eyes widen in panic. he didn’t mean to offend you.
“i’m sorry!”
“i’m not hurt, just need my sleep. it’s 1:30. go on now.”
sal sets down his cold, uneaten lasagna and larry takes a quick bite out of his.
“see ya!” he mumbled, words muffled by food. you click your teeth as he walks out of your apartment and towards the elevator.
“(y/n).”
you spin around to face sal. his hand lingers on your counter.
“your knees. how are they?”
you look at his eyes through his mask. they’re light blue. like the lake that you so dreaded. like the sky that morning. like your dad’s shirt. he blinks.
“uh, f-fine. they’re fine. they should heal in a few days. time for you to go.” you grab his shoulders and shove him through the door.
“see you tomorrow?” he stumbles.
“yeah.” the door shuts with a slam and you’re filled with an overwhelming sense of dread.
oh god, not this again. your vision blurs as you try to grasp onto your breath. you can hear the blood rushing in your ears. your heart thuds like it’s going to break through your rib cage. it feels like someone is strangling you, coaxing the last breath of air from your lungs. your nails scratch at your throat desperately, your salty tears only making the marks burn more. at least the cold metal of your prosthetic cools you down a bit.
shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up. you can’t wake anyone. you bite down on your lip to suppress the strangled cries leaving your mouth. god, not the lake, please. not the forest. not the huge, dirty, rabid wolf-looking creature behind your father. not his cries. please, just make it shut up. SHUT UP.
you wake up the next morning to your alarm ringing.

1. you have a chance to interview tobias forge; what 3 questions would you ask him?
- what is your real hair color and why do you like dyeing it
- do you truly intend on making music videos for songs bygone eras (e.g. body and blood), only yes/no answers allowed; if yes which songs do you have in mind
- i know musicians genuinely can't answer questions like 'when are you coming to brazil' because they're not responsible for planning their shows but: shows in asia when :(
5. have you got any unpopular ghost opinions? share them
impera's not spooky enough for me :( i got into ghost primarily because they were wonderfully blasphemous and horror-aligned in the most delicious of ways (differently from a band like bloodbath for example, like with ghost there's almost something romantic about it) but i feel like impera lacks that completely, aside from the lyrics (which in my opinion are the least important part of evoking a mixture of fear/disgust/wonder/reverence - the sound is what makes it)
obviously a lot of people interpret that as me saying 'impera doesn't sound like opus' which, yeah it doesn't, but that's not the point I'm making. it feels like a huge departure from their previous sound and atmosphere and while i still like it as music, I'm not sure if I'm in love with it as a ghost album
tobias can make what he likes and i can respect that, but people are also allowed to have opinions about it that aren't 'this is perfect and i love it,' which i feel a lot of people in this fandom don't get
ehhh what else... i think the very american themes in this album are a bit restrictive and are nowhere near as interesting as prequelle or meliora were.
i don't think i have any radically unpopular opinions... i suppose the way copia would talk about the ghoulettes as chained lionesses during the prequelle shows made me uncomfy? lol
OH of course i thought they totally oversold the 'exciting' afterparty -_-
11. favorite ghost meme
'i will be actively disturbing the peace'! it makes me laugh so hard
20. have you ever had a dream involving ghost?
ughhhhhh yes only recently, after the afterparty ended at 1:45 IN THE MORNING i went to bed and dreamt that there was actually more to the after-party and missed all of it because i went to sleep. didnt like that
21. you get to spend a day with one ghost character. who is it and how do you spend the day?
it's papa ii and we're fornicating
