"And just like that..." Namjoon laughs tiredly as you groan loudly, throwing your head back to show your pure delight at finally being able to settle down.
"That... That was a lot." You laugh as Namjoon loosens his tie.
"Hey, this was all your idea." He jokes playfully as you brush him off, tossing yourself back on the bed, shivering softly since the black gown you were in was backless and these satin hotel sheets were nice and cold.
It had sort of been your idea, honestly. Last minute, Namjoon had been invited to speak at a college in South Korea early this morning, and you had been called back into work to accept some award on behalf of the company that you had just made partners at.
Not wanting to miss these big events for each other, you found yourself on a plane to South Korea at five in the morning, and then on the first flight to New York right after the event was done. And even after your big day was accomplished, you knew you still had plans for the evening...
The Mori Art Museum in Tokyo, Japan had a new exhibit, and you knew Namjoon had been dying to visit it on opening night. Now here you were. From South Korea to New York to Japan... And you were more than traveled out.
"I've done so many costume changes today, I should work on Broadway." You mutter as Namjoon takes off his blazer with a tired chuckle.
You pick your feet up to set flat on the bed, your dress slowly sliding down, exposing your thighs to the five-foot eleven Korean man who was now bluntly staring. You don't notice as you take your hair down from its bun, but when he stands by the edge of the bed and grabs your ankle, it dawns on you that he's quiet...
Too quiet...
He slowly undoes your heel straps on your one foot, and you cork your head playfully as you look up at him. "What are you doing, Mr. Kim?" You ask softly as your heel hits the floor, his big hands massaging your sore foot and you press your lips together, feeling settled instantly.
"Just... Being a good boyfriend." He says innocently. You giggle, hands resting on your stomach. He releases your other foot from its treacherous heel, and now with both feet officially free, you place one on Namjoon's chest. He grabs it and you watch his hand roam towards your calf and then your inner thigh.
"Getting dangerously close there..." You warn jokingly as he hums, stroking the knuckle of his middle finger over your pantie covered pussy.
"Fuck..." You giggle softly and your breathing hitches as you watch Namjoon smirk at you.
"You... Were so sexy today. My future CEO." He taunts softly and you shy away at the compliment before shaking your head at him.
"Mm... It was nothing. Just some award. What about you? Speaking at colleges? Shaping young kids' minds..." You whisper as he leans over you and starts pulling your underwear to the side.
"Mm. This... This is the only gift I'll ever need for putting up with life's bullshit." He says softly as he looks into your eyes.
You raise a playful eyebrow. "My pussy?" You snicker softly.
"Exactly." He whispers with a nod before stroking your slot with his long fingers.
"Oh fuck..." You pant softly and start to roll your hips to follow his fingers, hands gripping his collar of his button down. This is why you loved this man. Cause he said poetic shit like that. And in your six months of dating, you found yourself never tiring of his verbal foreplay.
"You're so..." You're cut off by a moan when he slides two fingers into you at once.
"I'm what?" He whispers tauntingly against your lips. You melt into a kiss and your hands blindly move to undo his button-down shirt, yanking his tie loose.
"Belt." You mutter against his lips. There was no need for foreplay at this point. You'd been ready all fucking day. This man has been teasing you by just being his usual intelligent self.
"Fuck. I love you..." Namjoon groans as your hands make quick work on his belt. He looks down as your hands reach into his now undone pants and stroke his semi hard bulge through his boxers.
"Fuck, yeah, Y/N..." Namjoon breathes out as he watches. "Take me out, baby." He whispers and you smirk as you do just that so he can watch your hand jerk him off. "Shit, you've got me so fucking hard..." He whispers with his cock free...
You sit up slowly with him following your lead, standing up. You lick all of his chest and stomach as he groans. His hand moves into your hair to hold it back. "So pretty..." He whispers as you smirk up at him before you get to work, stroking and kissing the cock that you love so much.
You start to wet the tip before taking more into your mouth, making him moan softly. "Y/N..." He pants as you look up at him, bobbing your head up and down slowly, working your fist on the base.
"Oh, baby... Fuck..." He groans before pulling you back. "Now." Is all he says as he lays you back on the bed, making you giggle, wiping the saliva from your lips, smearing your lipstick along with it. It makes him groan happily.
He kisses your neck and bites on your pulse point as your hands practically tare his shirt off down his arms. He pulls back to take off his shirt and undershirt. Your hands roam his tone chest.
"So sexy..." You moan and he smiles bashfully before kissing you deeply as he slowly slides his tip in, making you shiver.
"M-More..." You whine against his lips and he nods fast, not thinking. Neither of you were at this point. Your hands roam his back, his muscles contracting against your wondering palms. He slides fully into you and your head rolls back, feeling full.
"Oh god!" You moan as he starts to find the right pattern. Namjoon was a real fast learner when it came to that...
"F-Fast... Faster." You groan as your nails dig into his shoulder blades. He grunts and does just that, hands gripping your thighs to hold them apart so he can get deeper.
"Ah! Joonie!" You moan loudly as your head digs back into the pillow as he groans happily.
"I love how you say my name..." He groans and leans down to kiss you again, hands wildly roaming each others' bodies.
"Don't... Don't stop." You grunt against his ear as he leans down to nuzzle in the cork of your neck. Your eyes are closed, lost in his strokes, in his touch, in the noises he makes. You bite his ear lobe, and he growls lowly.
"Fuck, baby. Such a good pussy..." He whispers in your ear, and you chuckle happily before grabbing his chin to kiss him again. You'd never get tired of it...
His fingers work your clit as you start to tremble. "K-Keep... Fuck! Keep going..." You cry out and Namjoon hums softly against your lips.
"Cum on my cock, baby..." He whispers, always one to talk you through these intense emotions. You scratch down his back, wanting to mark him. "There you go. Just like that." He whispers as he watches your eyes roll shut while your body tenses. He knew your body so well. Knew exactly when it would hit you.
"Don't stop!" You call out in desperation to feel this again, making him groan in pleasure. He goes faster and works your sensitive clit, fucking you through your first orgasm, which just throws you into another one.
"Oh, fuck. Fuck, I... I'm gonna cum." Namjoon groans as you grind down on his cock, wanting to ride out your second orgasm. "Oh, baby. Y/N!" Namjoon moans as he cums deep inside of you, making you gasp.
"Oh! Fuck!" You whine at the warm seed seeping into you. "Shit, baby..." You shiver at how hot it felt to be filled. He rests his head on your chest and you both start to catch your breaths when it hits you.
"Joonie!" You almost shout and shove him off of you.
"What? What's the problem?!" He asks, startled as you mentally run through your morning routine today.
"Fuck! Get it out of me!" You scream as you run to the bathroom, feeling his cum dripping out of you.
********************************************
"Let me check the back. We... Might not have anything." The store owner says at the local drug store before he leaves you and Namjoon alone, both of you in sweatshirts with your hoodies up and glasses on. You hit Namjoon for the 100th time since everything went down.
"Ow! How many times do I have to say; this isn't my fault." He tries and you give him a look. "Okay, not ALL my fault. You were the one telling me not to stop. How was I supposed to know you didn't take your birth control today?" He whispers as you rub your face before swatting at his arm again.
You two had been on the hunt for a plan B pill for about an hour now. Some places didn't have it, and some were closed. Either way, it was 2am in Japan, and you two were at some random drug store, hoping this guy had what you needed.
"This is so embarrassing." You whisper as Namjoon pauses.
"What do you mean?" He asks.
"It's clear to him that we're dumbasses who weren't safe." You mutter and Namjoon sighs softly, pulling you into his arms. "What if they don't have any here? Then what? Are we parents then?" You whisper, mind spiraling.
"Hey. We... We can cross the bridge if it gets there. But for now-" You cut Namjoon off.
"Do you want kids?" You ask and his shoulders slouch softly as he hums.
"Yeah. I do." He says and you watch him.
"I do too. But like this? We're both still... Doing shit." You say quietly. "Is that... Selfish?" You mutter.
"What's selfish is bringing a human into this world without being ready for them." He points out and you grip his waist, snuggling into his chest.
"And we're not dumbasses who weren't safe." He adds. "We're love birds who got carried away." He corrects as his hands rub up and down your back caringly. You shut your eyes.
"We still have more random shit to do in life. Like... flying from South Korea to New York to Japan." He teases and it makes you grumble softly which causes him to laugh.
"Thank you for coming with. I know the risk with ARMY possibly finding out-" He cuts you off.
"I was not gonna let the woman I love walk around alone on the streets of Japan at night looking for a Plan B pill." He says simply and you hum, pecking his lips.
"Sir? Ma'am? I've found one..." The man says, setting down a box. Namjoon hums and walks over to pay for that and some juice for you to drink with.
You guys exit the store and Namjoon hands you the pill and the juice for you to down it with. You take a moment to just look at the pill.
"You okay?" He asks softly. "Second thoughts?" He raises an eyebrow, and you look at him and then shake your head, affirmative on this standpoint...
"Okay. Hey. When the time is right... We'll know." He says gently as he looks at you. "I'm on your time. I'm ready when you are." He smiles softly at you, his dimple on full display and it settles you more than he'll ever know. It felt good having him on your side.
"Soon." You whisper before popping the pill in your mouth and downing some of the juice. Namjoon grabs your hand softly and leads you back to the hotel, quietly pointing out the stars as you just snuggled into him peacefully...

pairing: stan marsh & best friend!reader
synopsis: wendy left poor STAN MARSH for the official and final time, and he was devastated about it. depression hit him like a bus, until by some miracle, you showed up, and practically saved his life. a friend like you was just what stan had needed for quite a while, but what if he wanted more?

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
YOU HAD sent Stan one message since that morning’s incident. At first, he didn’t want to check it at all, just seeing your contact name on his phone made his heart ache. Although, after about five minutes, he finally clicked on the notification.
𝗁𝖾𝗒𝗒𝗒𝗒 𝗌𝗍𝖺𝗇! 𝗎 𝖻𝗎𝗌𝗒 𝗍𝗁𝗂𝗌 𝗐𝖾𝖾𝗄𝖾𝗇𝖽? 𝗂 𝗐𝖺𝗇𝗇𝖺 𝗌𝖾𝖾 𝗎 𝖺𝗀𝖺𝗂𝗇, 𝗆𝖺𝗇!
1:11 𝖯𝖬
Stan stared blankly at his phone for quite a while. Why would you still wanna hang out with him after he, quoting your own words, “ghosted you since you moved”? It didn’t help that you were the girl that Cartman created a fake chat with to mess with Wendy’s head. It was Stan’s mistake for thinking it was good idea to not have a password for his phone and leaving it out in the open for anyone to take. He typed, deleted, and retyped many messages to reply to yours, some more passive aggressive than others while some just sounded straight pitiful. Stan settled with a casual response.
𝗇𝖺𝗁. 𝗆𝖺𝗒𝖻𝖾 𝗍𝗁𝗂𝗌 𝗌𝗎𝗇𝖽𝖺𝗒 𝖺𝗍 4?
2:48 𝖯𝖬
You replied instantly.
𝗍𝗁𝖺𝗍'𝗌 𝗀𝗋𝖾𝖺𝗍! 😊 𝗆𝖾𝖾𝗍 𝗆𝖾 𝖺𝗍 𝗍𝗁𝖾 𝗉𝖺𝗋𝗄, 𝗇𝖾𝖺𝗋 𝗍𝗁𝖾 𝗌𝗄𝖺𝗍𝗂𝗇𝗀 𝖺𝗋𝖾𝖺 ❤
2:48 𝖯𝖬
Stan tilted his head to the side and raised his brow. He wondered why you added a heart at the end of your text. Were you lowkey trying to flirt with him? He waved the thought away and turned his phone face down on his desk. He stretched in his chair, a loud and somewhat dramatic yawn filled the silence in his room.
His back slouched as he opened a tab to check his grades. There were already over twenty untouched tabs open, but Stan didn't bother to close them. Once he logged in, he clicked on the icon called "Gradebook". The thing that was revealed to him was quite pathetic. He was failing most of his classes, with Baseball and Spanish being the only exceptions. What's worse is that they weren't "barely passing" grades, they were full blown bombing. He literally had a twenty-eight in Algebra.
Stan bit hard into the right side of his cheek while quickly closing out the tab. "Shit…" He muttered; his fingers ran anxiously through the dark roots of his hair. Stan had been skipping a few classes over the school year, some just involving him being knocked out in the corner of the classroom while others were him spending time drinking alone. Even before Wendy permanently broke up with him, joy and motivation lacked heavily in Stan's life.
Stan couldn't remember how many times he had told himself, "Ah, I'll do it later." He had over thirty missing assignments across all of his courses. It was just so hard to even think about sitting at his desk to try and catch up on his work. Pulling out the paper is one thing, but actually being able to process what's on it is a completely different thing. He was just glad to have a friend as smart as Kyle Broflovski.
Kyle and Stan would FaceTime each other often over school related things, Kyle always impatiently saying, "What is it this time, Marsh?" Stan knew at some point Kyle would stop saving his ass, but again, he was happy to know that one person hadn't given up on him yet. The consequences of his actions, or lack thereof, would come crawling to bite him back in the ass eventually.
Stan grabbed his phone off his desk and slid onto his mattress with little to no interest. He didn't have any social media, only a few pointless mobile games and an app to help track how long you've been sober, which he hasn't used since summer of last year. Out of curiosity, he clicked on the icon. When the app opened, the words "Congratulations! You are 3 months sober!" welcomed him with huge, bold letters. Underneath that text in tinier font read, "Last logged on June 16th." That alone made Stan want to hurl. He gripped on his stomach, swallowing hard to force down the vomit threatening to escape his throat.
He remembered exactly why he downloaded that app. He and Wendy had gotten into an argument over his drinking, of course. Just to make her happy he downloaded the app, promising her that would actually try and use it.
He desperately wanted to change, for Wendy. But he couldn't. After three months, the craving had taken control of his actions. In the middle of night, while Wendy was sound asleep beside him in his own bed, Stan had ran down the stairs, dragging out every bit of alcohol that his parents stored in the fridge. He chugged all of it down until he felt sick. He had painfully thrown up all night.
Stan had come to realize that so many people have tried to fix him, but not ever had he tried to fix himself. "Maybe I'm just beyond fixing." Stan exclaimed, laughing weakly. He rested his phone on his chest and closed his eyes. Taking in a deep breath, he thought to himself, "Sometimes I wonder why anyone puts up with me." Soon, a gentle knock tapped against his door. "Hey, sweetie… Can you please open the door, your father and I would like to talk to you." The bridge of Stan's nose wrinkled as he stared at nothing in particular. With furrowed brows, he slurred, "Yeah, in a sec Mom."
He lazily dragged himself off his bed and trudged toward his room's door. With a meek turn of it's handle, the door creaked open, revealing two very disconcerted looking parents. Sharon and Randy just stared at Stan with eyes filled with worry. Stan raised a brow, "What is it? You said you wanted to talk to me about something." Sharon opened her mouth to speak, but she paused, not being able to find the right words.
Randy took the lead and made a hesitant step into Stan's room, "It's about your grades—" Stan frowned deeply. He knew this was coming. Then Randy quickly shook his head, re-wording himself. "No, this is about you." Sharon had finally joined in with her husband, the two hand-in-hand. They made some sort of weary eye contact before Randy had a shaky sigh. "Something's going on with you, son. We're worried about you, Stanley."
He wanted to tell them, he really did. But lying was just so much easier. He put on his best fake smile and chuckled, "What? Everything's okay with me, Mom and Dad." Sharon crossed her arms in disbelief. "Are you sure? That 'Wendy' girl seemed to make you happier than I've seen you in a while." Stan tried to form another narrative, but his father was not buying it. "Oh come on, Stan. Your grades have been slipping even before the two of you broke up. There has to be more going on under the surface."
Sharon gently placed a hand on Stan's shoulder. "Do you want to go back to rehab, my love?" Stan cringed very hard at the thought. He quickly turned away from his parents. "I already told you, nothing's wrong with me. You can go now." Stan's voice raised. The room then went deadly silent. In the corner of his eye, Stan could see his father grip the bridge of his nose in annoyance. "Fine. But please try and actually do your work." Randy said, a sting in his tone. Stan's parents quietly left his room, his mother closing the door behind her. Stan slowly fell on his back, yet again staring at his ceiling.
"He's so fucking stubburn!"
"Randy, you know for a fact that he's in a hard place right now. Wendy meant the world to him!"
"That dumbass girl was never the problem, he's been like this since he was eight! He's been the problem since day one!"
"You're not gonna seriously look at me in my face and tell me that you didn't introduce him to that horrible monster of a drug! All it's ever done is ruin this fucking family, and it hasn’t gotten any better, it's gotten worse!"
His parents' loud screams were subdued to the sound of the familiar tune of FaceTime. Stan checked his phone to see who was trying to call him. The contact name said "#1 bestest homie🍀", who was Kyle. He answered within the third beep. "Hey." Stan muttered dryly. He could subtly hear the shuffling of some kind of equipment, but Kyle was behind a plain old white wall. "What's up, Stan? You look kinda… miserable. Is right now a bad time?" Stan shook his head and shifted his weight onto his stomach, "Nah, you're fine, dude. I'm just tired. What's all that noise in the background?"
Kyle's eyes suddenly widened and his mouth flew agape in shock. "Do you seriously not remember, Stan?" Stan looked around his bedroom awkwardly. "Wha– What are you talking about? What am I supposed to remember?" Kyle aggressively face-palmed, shaking his head. Stan was dumbfounded. Kyle scowled at him. "We have a show Sunday night, jackass! How'd you forget? We've been planning for this for months now!" Stan slowly placed his hand on his forehead. 'You have got to be shitting me right now…'
Kyle raised a sharp eyebrow at Stan, somehow making Stan flinch a bit. "I was calling you to see if you were ready to rehearse, but you seem to have your mind elsewhere." Impulsively, Stan spat back, "So you're telling me that I didn't see what happened that day?" Kyle's pupils dilated with frustration. "Stan, nobody's saying you did or didn't see anything. Plus, I was trying to be there for you then. The only person you should truly be throwing shade at is that dickhead, Cartman." He hissed.
Stan sat up quickly and sighed. "God, I know man. I'm sorry, it just slipped out. The whole (Name) and Wendy thing has been keeping my head spinnin'." Kyle frowned sympathetically, his thick ginger brows furrowed on his distressed face. "It's okay, you don't have to come if you're not ready, Stan." Stan looked away from the camera for a second and bit his lip. "What is it, dude?" Kyle asked, the camera angle shifted toward what looked like a door.
"Well…" Stan was a little embarrassed to say it, but he swallowed his pride. "Speaking of (Name), she kinda… y'know–" He cleared his throat, his friend patiently waiting for him to finish his sentence. "She… she asked to hang out. Alone." Kyle chuckled, a shit-eating grin plastered across his face. "I think that's called a date, Stan." Stan's cheeks quickly flushed as he practically yelled defensively, "She didn't– Well, she did technically call it that, but that's not the point!"
Kyle rolled his eyes playfully. "What about you invite (Name) to our concert on Sunday? I bet she'd love to come!" He winked. Stan contemplated the decision. "Maybe…" He hummed, brain gears turning. "Yeah, sure! I'll get her front row tickets and everything! You're a genius, Kyle!" Kyle smiled. "That means you're going to practice, right?" Stan gave one quick nod of his head. "Great, see you then, Stan. Good luck."

post more pricefield hcs we need them 🩵
aww!! i'm glad y'all like my hcs <33 these two never leave my head so i got a shit ton but here's a few more from my twt again :DD
- i know max and chloe weren't in the same grade but i just know chloe was the loud ass kid in kindergarten who probably had rabies so in an attempt to shut her up the teacher made her sit with the quietest kid in recess who's only friend was her own teddy bear aka little max. this plan backfired tho bc chloe just ended up being 10x more talkative considering how it didn't take too long for her to realize that oh. she liked making the quiet kid laugh so now she's doing the wackiest shit to impress her. they finally got max to talk tho so that's a win
- ok but i just think chloe likes to carry max's bag for her whenever it gets a little heavy <33 most of the time it's a loving gesture, sometimes it's the guilt bc chloe also likes shoving her things in her gf's bag whenever her pockets are full like the masc lesbian she is
- joyce definitely once had to sit baby chloe down to explain how "girls can't marry each other yet sweetie" which only made her tantrum worse bc she kept demanding she had to marry max so they could live together someday and so william officiated their "wedding" in their backyard (i made a fic for this hc btw)
- taking this chance to spread my chloe anime stan hc like max may have had her pirate phase due to watching pirates and of the carribean but chloe got that shit from fuckin one piece
- hc that sometimes chloe would tie or pin a high ass balloon on max's hoodie so she wouldn't lose her in a crowd or even in the grocery aisle bc she tends to wander off a lot without saying a word like chloe would blink once and suddenly her gf is in a whole different store (13 yr old chloe blinked once and suddenly max was in a whole different state so yeah. she's not letting max's nosy ass out of her sight again)
- kind of an nsfw hc but chloe would totally be the type to make asking consent sexy like she knows max is new to all this stuff and so she always ask things like "is this okay?" "can i kiss you?" "may i?"
- max and chloe would absolutely do the "five second kiss" rule whenever they're fighting or when things are getting a little tense like chloe refuses to do it sometimes (even though it was her idea) bc she can't function properly when angry but she'd always end up laughing and smiling at the kiss in the end
- chloe is more verbally affectionate like so much so, the urge to tell max she misses her anytime max doesn't answer her text for more than 5 minutes gets stronger and stronger everyday

BLOOMING DAY
Tumblr media
blooming day . . . day four
note . . . the chapter is pretty long (~2.4k words) cuz i couldn't update last week.... hope y'all will enjoy 🤭
taglist open <3 (if you want me to add you, send an ask so i can make sure i saw it!!) . . . @cherriegyu @kpoprhia @vhshyk @hikyeom @mins-fins @juyomiao @dwcljh @invuwrld @beomibeom @sulkygyu @lycheae @huipinkhair @luvseok1e @haesunflower @big-uwu-stan @harus-simp @zhounauts @jiaant11 @articxari @jebiwon @mashihope @taerrrrrae @ilovechanhee @ahnneyong @seok02 @honghongbri @justemalove @mposkyje @zhanghaoed @ihrtgw
previous day | masterlist | next day
next profile unlocked : park hanbin
. . . ᥫ᭡ . . .
most of the time, you would consider yourself as pretty much smart. but now, oh, you felt really dumb. but how could you not think they were not dating? most of the time, boys aren't that into skinship with their friends... but hanbin literally just walked away with his arm around hao's waist.
"seems like you were a hanbin hater for no reasons... maybe you should try and give him a chance", mashiro tried to advice you.
"you know damn well she's into an another hanbin", yujin replied.
"the other hanbin", chaehyun sang with the melody of that one lana del rey song.
"and more importantly, i have other reasons to hate him", you said.
the girls all looked at you, waiting for you to explain yourself on what were the reasons. but, you know, it's only chapter four and i'm not willing to spill all the tea now. your eyes met the huge clock of the cafeteria, which was telling your class was starting in 10 minutes.
"well, i had enough of this bitch today, so we'll talk about this some other time. i gotta go."
mashiro heavily sighed, annoyed about the fact she could've note down the reasons you dislike hanbin so she could help him. but you were not willing to be late to class, so she was missing on that opportunity. a small voice in her head told her that maybe, maybe, she should also go to class, but she had no idea what class she was supposed to have now... so she might as well make sure she sees the chaos created by her own hands with her own eyes.
"wait, y/n!"
your eyes met your friend as she called you, and you simply hummed to let her know you were listening to her and pressuring her to talk quickly.
"you have photography class, right?"
"yeah! why?"
"i signed up for the new semester! let's go together!"
in fact, mashiro didn't sign up for shit, and you were kinda suspicious about the fact she did. but could you care less? you'd love to be with mashiro for that class!
i mean... with mashiro... a few seats further.
not that you had anything against your dear best friend, no, absolutly not. you signed up to the photography class once because you were interested in it. but it's also the place where you met the hanbin that made your heart beat because of something opposite to wrath. and as much as you like photography, remember you're a passive ass bitch who doesn't have much hobbies or passion for anything... except for flowers and now park hanbin. and photography class was great because your seat bestie was the said hanbin. you'd rather sit next to him whether or not mashi was there, and you'd rather be not too close to her because if you ever try to flirt... she won't let you live that down.
that's what you explained to her on the way, and she had no problem with that. the class officially starts at 2pm. however, since most people had their lunch break before this, even the teacher is usually around 10 minutes late. it's also park hanbin's case. he's the leader of the hip hop team and he usually uses the lunch break to practice by himself so he can teach his teammates easily later. since the room where he practices is a the complete opposite of the campus, he always arrive two minutes after the teacher. he never got reprimanded by the teacher for being literally twelve minutes late because there was two door to the classroom : one in the front, and one in the back. park hanbin would always enter through the back one and sit immediatly next to you since it was the closest to the back door. that's how destiny led you next to the boy that pleased your eyes whenever you saw him on the campus.
if the teacher and your crush, just like most of your classmates, were always late to this class, it was not your case. you're not a firm adherant to rules nor a very punctual person, but being late would mean someone could take your usual seat, and take away from you the opportunity to sit next to park hanbin.
that day was not any different than the others. the room was empty when you got in with mashiro. naturally, your feet led you to your cherished sit. you let your bag on the table as you peacefully sat and started to take out your material. mashiho went to sit at the row before the last one, but not in front of you. she wanted to see what was about to happen, so she took a seat a bit further.
as you were looking for the file that had all your previous lessons for this class on your laptop, you heard someone step into the class. you didn't pay much attention to it, uninterested in whoever just passed the door because there was no way it was the person you were waiting for. the footsteps started to be closer, and you finally heard the chair next to you be dragged backward a bit so the person could sit. it was not even 2pm yet...
"i didn't know you're taking this class."
i admit, you might be a little dramatic, because the horrified look you were wearing right now was absolutly unnecessary. from your face alone, people would think they were watching a horror movie (i mean not your face, you're super pretty, but your expression). you saw a ghost or something? nothing like that. it was just hanbin's voice that just talked to you right now.
but not the right hanbin.
slowly, you turned your head to face him. it was really him. sitting at the place park hanbin was supposed to take in order for him to not get noticed by the teacher. and in order for you to gush about him for a hour and half straight. you coughed to clear your voice and regain you composure.
"hum. excuse me, hanbin, but i have a friend who's gonna sit there so it would be great if you can get your ass up and change seats."
"i don't see your friend yet..."
ignoring your attempt at chasing him, hanbin started to put his things on the table as well, preparing himself for the class. you were already tired from the situation and you let your back rest on the wall next to you.
"well, he's coming. there's plenty of seats since we're only three in the classroom."
"i know, i have eyes. but i'm used to sit at this place in most of my class and it's gonna shock my brain if i ever take another seat.
"you're sure? i'm pretty sure if you gaslight yourself enough you'll be doing pretty fine on the opposite of the classroom."
"the opposite?"
"yeah, you see, i'm sitting at the last row, on the right and it would be better for both of us if you go and sit on the front row, on the left."
you were a laptop girlie, that's how you took your notes. but hanbin was more on the hand written side. when he finished setting up his pencils and notebook, he looked at you, squiting his eyes like he was analyzing you.
"i'm not planning on changing seats. if you hate it that much you can change yourself", he said innocently. with a passive agressive smile, you replied.
"the thing is i need to sit here because my friend can only sit in the back."
"too bad, seems like your friend is gonna have to find another place."
hanbin knew you couldn't seat anywhere else if you wanted to be with his arch-nemesis. you were just hoping he would get the hint and leave... but you felt like it was not gonna happen. and you started to see clear in hanbin's attitude. i mean, not clear to the point you know mashiro is helping him, but clear enough to see you bruised his ego by rejecting him and that's why he was not giving up on you. there were no other way. what would he like that much about you for him to go through the humiliation but still court you? he didn't know you that much. and you didn't feel like the most interesting person. compared to him, you were nothing, and it was never a problem to you. you never planned on living life fully. but you just couldn't get why he would be so hung up to you if it wasn't for his ego.
but people like him are easy to get rid off. if his ego is the problem, you just had to hurt it more so he would run away and eventually accept failure.
"tell me, hanbin, aren't you embarassed?"
"embarassed...?" he repeated, confused.
"yeah. normal people just avoid the person that rejected them. i thought i made it clear i have no romantic feelings to you, nor attraction. i don't even like you as a person."
"and so? i was not born with a crush on you, feelings change with time and maybe i can change how you feel."
you gave him a haughty look before sighing and letting your chin rest in the palm of your hand.
"that's why i gave you buttercups." offended, hanbin gasped, before putting his hand on his mouth to cover his shock. he couldn't let you see that got to him. a small smirk made its appearance on your face as you saw his reaction.
"well... the flowers were pretty." he tried to explain.
"yeah, but it doesn't change anything to their meaning. be honest with me, you don't like me that much, right? what is making you act like that?"
"i just think you got the wrong idea about me and i would love to get to know each other better. i wanna have a different bouquet next time."
"my friends suspect you of having a humiliation kink."
"i don't talk about my kinks on our first photography class..."
the conversation you were having and his playful remarks made you forget about what was around you : the class was filling up and your teacher hurriedly came in. losing track of the time as you were trying your best to make hanbin feel unconfortable so he could leave, you didn't see two more minutes have passed.
with little to no noise, the back door of the class room was pushed open. park hanbin only peaked his blueberry head in, a smile on his face as the idea of sitting next to you. the smile fell soon enough when he saw you with another guy... it would've been okay if at least you let him have the seat next to the door so the teacher wouldn't see him, but it was not the case. double treason.
park hanbin's eyes brushed the room to realize the only empty seat was the one on the front. he had no other choice than to accept his fate, and he made its way to it, getting yelled at by the old man in the front of the class.
if hanbin felt proud of the fact his plan to take the other hanbin's seat next to you worked, he didn't expect you to stop talking to him after that. you just decided to ignore him throughout the lesson, and you were too busy thinking about whether or not park hanbin was going to be mad at you.
as soon as the class was dismissed, park hanbin made its way to you. it cleared all your worries when he waited for the girl sitting in front of you to go so he could sit there. facing you with a teasing smile, park hanbin let his elbow rest on your table.
"what is that? you let me down for a new friend?" he said playfully.
"i literally got kidnapped by this man, i fought him to save your seat but he didn't listen to me...", you replied dramatically, making park hanbin's smile widen.
oh no, sung hanbin, alert! i think you might be thirdwheeling right now... the brunette coughed to catch your attention.
"hum. i'm sung hanbin, the new seat bestie." he had no idea what he was doing right now, but he gave his hand to park hanbin for him to shake it. the blueberry-haired guy took his hand to shake it politely.
"well, i already know your name. i'm park hanbin, the original seat bestie."
park hanbin didn't pay much more attention to the boy sitting next to you, his eyes were quickly back on you.
"so, y/n... you should make it up to me, right?"
sung hanbin couldn't stand the fact he was getting invisible to you as a coy smile created by park hanbin was evident on your face, and your eyes were on this other boy only. he silently listened to the two of you planning to go to a coffee shop after park hanbin's dance class as he put his pencilcase and notebook in his bag. he chewed the inside of his cheek, having no other choice but to accept a new failure today, and he got up to leave the class to you and your crush.
as soon as he got out of the class, he got pulled agressively by someone way smaller than him. mashiro. hanbin sighed.
"bro, i think i fucked up my soup" he said to the japanese.
"don't be defeatist! didn't you hear them? they're going to that cafe next to campus."
"so...? do you want me to crash their date or something? i don't think that's right."
"yeah, that wouldn't be right if you were going there on purpose to do that."
confused, the boy looked at mashiro, waiting for her to explain herself. mashiro pinched her nose in despair.
"what do i do with someone like you... y/n should have give you the flower of stupidity."
"does it exist?"
"that's not the subject, idiot! that's literally your mom's cafe! you're not crashing their date, you're just helping your mother as a barista!"
for the second time today, hanbin gasped. maybe god, the universe, hell, mother nature! whatever, was on his side... his two hands went to grab mashiro's shoulders.
"you're a genius, thank you!"
"i know, duh."

Y'all.
Episode 4.
It's the best piece of work Marvel has made after they made IW and Endgame.
spoiler alert 🚨
.
.
.
.
.
.
lemme start off with our favourite Miss Jolly Rancher Unhinged Clock and Victorian-Era HWR Fangirl. I KNEW Ravonna had somehow helped HWR in building the TVA, but him erasing her memories was straight up evil.
Then we come to the absolutely gruesome deaths of Dox and the others. HOLY SHIT MISS JOLLY RANCHER IS AWFUL like she was enjoying every second of Dox and her hunters literally getting crushed to their deaths. B-15 was traumatised, to say the least and you can see on Ravonna and Brad's faces a hint of disgust. But Miss Minutes grinning like that - outright disturbing.
I can't get over OB and Victor fanboying over each other's work - it was so funny yet wholesome.
Now let's talk about Loki and Sylvie. As a diehard Sylki stan you know I am, my fangirling heart was overjoyed seeing these two lovesick ducks working together willingly! I mean, yea, they did have that rather awkward talk in Pie Land (mind you that's it's official name henceforth) but after that they worked together as teammates! Now I must say, I completely agree with Sylvie on snapping on Mobius, because, well, yeah, the multiverse is a bigger priority than pie and I legit don't get why tf antis hate on Sylvie for doing so. Like you hated her for not giving a damn abt the TVA + the multiverse, but now when she stood up to do so y'all are hating on her again?? Like?? Make up ur mind, smh.
Anyways, back to Sylki. Sylvie got stuck in the elevator and the way she and Loki worriedly called out each other's names was so soft! And the "You ok?" trope CAME BACK OMG! THAT PHRASE IS LITERALLY THE BACKBONE OF SYLKI! When I tell you my fangirling heart screamed with joy omg-
The the whole paradox scene which brought Ep 1 back in a circle. I absolutely loved the way our Loki realised what he had to do and went real slow to prune his past self just so that Past Loki could get a glimpse of Sylvie; which would then lead him to be more determined than ever to go look for her. And I quite literally died on Sylvie being confused af as to wtf she just witnessed.
Then there's the telephone scene. OH MY GOD it was literally OB all this time when fans were out here speculating it was Kang or someone lmao. Both Loki and Sylvie yelling simultaneously to turn the security thing off gives out so much Couple Vibes, I absolutely loved it AAHHAHAH-
AND. THE. BRAD. SCENE. OOF.
our friendly neighbourhood lovesick ducks teaming up to enchant Brad was just too good. Loki in his hot, creepy voice luring Brad into a dark area while Sylvie very swiftly just straight up grabbing his face from the back - pure horror. Absolutely loved it, 10/10. Tho I must say, to do execute elaborate scheme, these two must have done some detailed planning (=more Sylki moments we were robbed off).
BUT THAT ENDING DUCKING MURDERED ME BROO OMG
Can we talk abt Victor's redemption? Man had been portrayed as evil since Quantumania, and has been manipulated by both Ravonna and Miss Jolly Rancher, but at the end of the day, he was a sweetheart. Man fanboys OB and basically became besties with him and Casey, worked together to create the solution to a mess he most certainly didn't want to be a part of, and then himself stepped up to fix the Loom once and for all to prove to everyone (and not let Sylvie's choice of sparing him go to waste) that tho he contained HWR's DNA, he wasn't HWR - he was a far better person HWR could have ever been. Seeing him getting spaghettified was tragically heart-wrenching, man deserved so much better :(
BUT HOLY SHIT DID THAT ONE HECK OF A GODDAMN CLIFFHANGER LEFT ME SPEECHLESS LIKE WTF WAS THAT?? U can't just kill off a character who had redeemed himself, and then make our main character and his homies watch literally EVERYTHING THEY WORKED SO HARD FOR GET ANNIHILATED TO THE GROUND-
But we know our God of Mischief isn't dead, and so are his homies eheheh.
However the looks on everyone's face was tragic. Loki knew all was lost and had tears in his eyes. Sylvie looked like she had accepted defeat and her death. Mobius and OB were in denial, refusing to believe that Victor was dead. Casey and B-15 looked horrified, as they realised what was to come now upon them.
Tldr, this episode was an ABSOLUTE BANGER. IM READY TO CLAIM IT SUPERIOR THAN ENDGAME, come and fight me. Its a top cinematic piece, and the suspense to Ep 5 is eating me up.
Ig i should go and study for the 4 tests this week before ep 5 ;-;

Each encounter with the rest of the group becomes a unique thread in the tapestry of life, gradually integrating disparate elements into a harmonious whole and seamlessly weaving into the fabric of your joined world.
A/N:
Oh wow, a double weekend update because I just can't hold myself back lol. Anyway, missing our eternal sunshine, hobi-ah🥹
Let's be friends and stan Yoongi together on twitter @itsdndwn 💜💜
---
Masterlist. Previous Chapter. Next Chapter.
Also read on: AO3
---
The much-anticipated day of your hangout with some of the BTS members finally arrived, marking your first official introduction as Yoongi's girlfriend. Unfortunately, not all of them were able to make it due to some last-minute schedule changes but you still look forward to this day.
As you began unloading the bags from your car in the building's private parking lot – which Yoongi had granted you card access to – you couldn't help but feel like you were juggling too many things at once. The bags contained your favorite take-out items for the boys to try, some of Yoongi's preferred snacks, and a few items you intended to leave in his apartment. It was quite the haul for someone of your stature.
As you approached the elevator, the imposing figure of Jung Hoseok, impeccably dressed with sunglasses and a face mask, caught your attention. Even with his discreet attire, you instantly recognized him. He seemed oblivious to who you were but insisted on helping with the bags.
"Let me help you with that," he offered, reaching for some of the bags you were carrying. "Looks like you've got quite a load there."
He smoothly took some of the bags from your grasp, and you couldn't help but feel a wave of gratitude as the burden on your arms lightened. You expressed your thanks, saying, "Oh, thank you so much!"
A warm smile graced Hoseok's face as he responded, "No problem! We all have those days."
Encouraged by his kindness, you playfully remarked, "Thanks for being my superhero in this elevator moment."
Hoseok chuckled, "Superhero? Well, I'm always here to save the day. So, what's with all these bags?"
You explained, "Just some food for my boyfriend and his best buddies and a few other things. You know, typical overestimation of my own strength.”
Another hearty laugh escaped Hoseok, "Well, better to overestimate than underestimate, right?"
"Exactly! I mean, who needs a gym when you can just carry these, right?" you joked.
Hoseok laughed loudly, "You've got a point! I like your style." Then, he grinned mischievously and said, "You know, I heard carrying bags is the latest workout trend. They even have a new fitness class called 'Bag-lates.' It's all about perfecting your lifting technique and toning those bag-carrying muscles." Hoseok lifted the bags in his hands, demonstrating the said workout.
You couldn't help but burst into laughter at his unexpected and comical take on the situation. His infectious energy and playful humor made the mundane ride feel like a spontaneous stand-up comedy session. Hoseok's laughter, accompanied by your own, echoed in the confined space, creating an unexpected but delightful memory in the ordinary setting of the parking lot.
He gasped in dramatic surprise when he finally noticed that you were heading to the same floor as him. "What a coincidence, I'm also going to this floor. Do you live here?"
You gave him a mysterious smile as you stepped out of the elevator. "No, my boyfriend does."
“Oh, lucky guy, my Hyung’s neighbor,” Hoseok said as you walked in the same direction.
“I think I’m the lucky one,” You said with a fond smile, thinking of Yoongi.
Hoseok watched in surprise as you approached the door to Yoongi's apartment. "Wait, that's Hyung's-"
He was interrupted by you opening the door with your fingerprint.
Yoongi himself stood inside the doorway ready to greet you. "Hey, you," he said, his eyes filled with affection directed at you.
You replied with a small smile of your own as you approached him. Glancing back, you saw Hoseok still standing outside the door with his mouth hanging open.
“Come in, Hobi-ah,” Yoongi said with a chuckle.
Hoseok snapped out of it and came in, closing the door behind him. You could feel his eyes still watching you interact with Yoongi, updating him on what you had brought with you that day.
Hoseok’s eyes widened in surprise as he connected the dots. "You're Hyung's girlfriend?"
Yoongi answered with a shy but proud smile, his affection for you evident in his eyes. "Yeah, this is _____."
Hoseok’s face was the perfect picture of shock. You tried hard to suppress your laughter by biting your lips.
Hoseok turned sharply to look at Yoongi. "Seriously? When did this happen?" His eyes flickered between the two of you, clearly taken aback by the news.
"Yeah, it's... kind of a recent thing. We wanted to keep it low-key for now.” Yoongi answered softly.
"Ahh, I'm so happy for you, hyung.” Hoseok ran to give Yoongi a big hug, it was heartwarming how genuinely happy he was for his hyung. He turned to you next, now that he knew who you were, his smile was even more blinding. “You are something special."
You blushed at his words, feeling a bit self-conscious under his gaze. "I'm just me, Hoseok."
Yoongi scoffed, "Don't be modest. I'm betting all of my money that you'll win an award soon."
Hoseok's curiosity was piqued. "Do you work in the music industry too?"
You felt a mix of embarrassment and flattery from Yoongi's unwavering confidence in your acting skills. "I'm an actress."
"Oh, have I seen your work?" Hoseok asked, trying to recall if he had seen you in any productions.
Yoongi interjected, reminding Hoseok of a past conversation. "Really, Hoseok? You were quite excited about my cameo."
Hoseok eyes widened again as the realization dawned on him. "Oh! It's you!" He grinned, remembering the context now. "Yeah, I see it now. It's great to finally meet you in person."
You chuckled, feeling a bit embarrassed but also amused by Hoseok’s reaction. "I get that a lot. I look different without all the makeup."
The evening went well, filled with laughter. You watched fondly as the four men interacted with each other, clearly having missed being together. Later, Yoongi and Seokjin went to the kitchen to prepare food. Hoseok followed not long after, offering his help. You, as the guest of honor according to Seokjin, and Namjoon, for obvious reasons, had been banned from the kitchen.
You ended up having a delightful conversation with Namjoon in the living room. It flowed easily, and you discovered that you had a lot in common, from the type of books you enjoyed to your shared love for art. He asked about your experience working with the director of the movie that you spoke about when you first met him. In turn, he gave recommendations of movies to add to your growing list.
The rest of the group returned to the living room when they were done preparing. Yoongi quickly took the seat beside you, and Seokjin and Hoseok filled the other spaces. The conversation shifted to Yoongi's cameo in your drama, and compliments for his acting skills were thrown around. He blushed with the attention, attributing his performance to your influence.
"Yeah! You're an awesome actress, _____!" Hoseok quickly added, "Your monologue in that drama Yoongi-hyung had a cameo in was powerful."
"Oh, I didn't know you watched that episode too," you said, "Thanks, Hoseok! I had a lot of time to prepare."
"We watched the entire series!" Seokjin said. "Wait, you do know you’re one of the major reasons I accepted the offer in the first place, right?"
You were speechless.
Seokjin, ever the enthusiastic one, turned to Yoongi. "What? You never told her this?"
“Hyung, you know damn well that I didn’t know anything about the project until you got that injury,” Yoongi defended himself.
"Your acting in that movie was impressive too. I will never forget a talented face," Namjoon commented matter-of-factly.
Blushing at the compliment, you thanked him sincerely. "Thank you, Namjoon."
Yoongi, always curious, chimed in. "What movie are you guys talking about?"
You waved off the question with a dismissive laugh. "Oh, it's nothing, really. Just an old indie film. My role wasn't even that important."
"What?! No way!" Namjoon protested loudly, "Your role was small but memorable. You brought depth to that character."
“I kept telling her that she’s good; she just won't believe it," Yoongi interjected.
You playfully pinched his side for outing that fact. "Thanks, guys. It means a lot coming from you." It was heartwarming to see how supportive they were.
The conversation continued, with many topics revolving around you and Yoongi. Eventually, they began discussing how to introduce you to the rest of the maknae line, who coincidentally couldn’t make it to the gathering that day. Ideas were tossed around playfully, and you and Yoongi simply laughed along, enjoying the camaraderie and warmth of the moment.
The evening concluded with delicious food, friendly banter, and board games that left you all in stitches. It was a memorable night that solidified the connection between you and these remarkable individuals who had welcomed you into their fold. You couldn't have asked for a better introduction to Yoongi's world, both on and off the stage

Head Canon - Haitani Ran as your boyfriend:
Idek where all these ideas came from, I'm far from a Haitani stan, but I do think the common fanon representation of Ran is rather unfair to the character, considering all the canon stuff we found out from the official character book #3, so... here's my small contribution to fixing it. LOL
Fluff; Hetero relationship
☆ ‌It's no secret that he loves attention and being the center of it, and with his natural good looks and charm/charisma, he always attracts a lot of attention from girls, wherever he appears. That earned him a bad reputation of a playboy/womanizer, but it couldn't be further from the truth. He just enjoys the attention that comes with flirting, but he's only had like, two girlfriends (by the time he joined Tenjiku).
☆‌ Not the type to fall in love easily, or even to develop a crush! He's actually super picky when it comes to women, just like with everything else in life. But once someone has sparked his interest, he goes into the chasing mode, and god help his target, cause they WILL fall for him, no matter what!
☆ ‌But I'm not saying that he's pushy or annoying, or a creep that doesn't know when to back off. Noooo, he's just a sly, witty, little tactician, who will have you play yourself right into his trap! If he's locked on to you, there's no way out, but let's face it - why the hell would you even want out?!
☆ Once in a relationship, he gets comfortable with you easily, you have movie nights and nap dates at least twice a week (after all, he takes 'Netflix and chill' very seriously!), he lets you play with his beloved hair, even mess it up, LOVES lying in your lap, and will fall asleep in less than five minutes, especially if you stroke his hair.
☆ ‌If he's not answering his phone for a while, you know there's only three possible reasons: he's sleeping, in a middle of a fight, or at the hair salon. He will call/message you back right away when he sees the missed calls/receives messages, and most likely say something along the lines of: "Sorry babe, I was asleep". (Bonus points for his sleepy, morning voice! Sexiest thing ever!)
☆ ‌He's very chill and doesn't really do drama. He dislikes fighting with his SO, but when it does happen, even tho it's rare, he'll just go to sleep without talking to you for the rest of the evening. If you buy him a montblanc cake the next day, he'll forgive you whatever your wrong might have been! If he was the one who was wrong, he'll lose sleep thinking about it, and eventually message you a memoire of an apology at like 4 AM. Next time you see him, he'd take you to his favorite hair salon to make up for whatever he did.
☆‌ Not the jealous type at all. So much so, that it might even leave you wondering if he even loves you at all, but cheat on him, or do anything to seriously break his trust, and he'll simply break up with you. He dislikes jealous girls as well.‌
☆ He wants to appear intellectual, but is actually dumb, so he can be rather cringy. He focused on pretty much anything other than studying, so no wonder he keeps using all those "complicated" words wrong, or getting his facts wrong. And if he tries speaking English, lord help you not to laugh at his face! But if you teach him the right things, he'll highly appreciate it. Just don't make fun of him in front of others, that's your one way ticket to hell!
☆ ‌He's quite a sweetheart when he's genuinely close to someone (ask Rindou if you don't believe me). He'll always let you vent to him, hear you out, listen to your problems, no matrer how small or trivial, and he's an amazing listener. He'll always offer emotional and moral support, even if he appears to be teasing you, he's there for his SO when it matters. But he himself can be quite closed off, and not talk about his problems easily, at least not the real ones. He will bitch about a bad hair day, but not openly tell you what's troubling him for real. If you tell him it's ok to rely on others sometimes, he'll just take that as a green light to act like a spoiled kid for the rest of the day, and expect you to baby him.

Main Masterlist | Sebastian Stan Masterlist
Tumblr media
You were getting ready to go for a walk through Central Park to clear your head a little bit. You've been working from home for the last few months and even though you love your job, it was getting a bit much sometimes. Not too long ago you moved back to New York to be closer to your sister, who was going through a tough time after losing her husband and you were living with her for now to make it easier on her. Because your house and job were in Phoenix, Arizona, you were working from home and you're thankful you could otherwise you wouldn't be able to be there for your sister, especially when she needed you the most. ''I'm going for a walk through Central Park, are you sure you don't want to come?'' you ask her again, and she shakes her head no. ''Just wanna sleep,'' she croaks out.
It hurt to see your sister like this, losing her husband took a very heavy toll on her. ''Alright love, if you need me I'm just a phone call away,'' you say before brushing some hair out of her face and kissing her on the forehead. You tucked in her blanket and went into the bedroom to change, it was too cold to walk outside in shorts and a t-shirt, so you went for a casual fall outfit, perfect for your walk around the park. You grabbed your phone, keys, and purse before saying goodbye to your sister and softly closing the door behind you. The walk to the subway was short, since you only lived 2 blocks away from the station, and you took the train going to Central Park. As usual, there were some weird people on the Subway, but being from New York, you were honestly used to it by now.
When you arrive, you get off the subway and quickly walk up the steps, wanting to see the beautiful fall covers that you love. This was honestly your favorite time of the year, and you would never get enough of it. You let out a content sigh and slowly start walking through the park before finding a small restaurant that sells hot chocolate. ''Hi, can I have one hot chocolate with marshmallows?'' you order and when you pay for it, you leave a generous tip. Based on the look on the woman's face, you made her day. You continued walking until you found an empty bench where you sat down to do your favorite activity here, people-watching.
After about 45 minutes, you suddenly received a phone call which quickly brought you back to reality. You were afraid it was your sister at first, but when you saw the caller ID, you picked up with a smile. ''Hi babe, how are you?'' you said when you answered the call, seeing that it was your boyfriend who called. ''Hey, I'm sorry I have to do it like this, but I haven't seen you in so long and I can't wait any longer. I'm sorry Y/N but I can't do this anymore, I'm breaking up with you. I met someone else and we're getting pretty serious,'' he said, not a single ounce of regret sounding through his voice. ''Oh...'' is all you could say before the realization set in and tears were forming in your eyes. ''I will bring your stuff to your apartment and leave my key there too,'' is the last thing he said, and you couldn't even react before he hung up.
The phone fell from your hands and onto the ground, the screen shattered but you didn't care about that, all you could think about was the fact that your boyfriend of 7 years just broke up with you over the phone. He didn't even have the decency to do it to your face, which is what broke your heart the most. You were losing the battle of holding back your tears, and with a loud sob, you completely broke. People were looking your way but no one came to check on you, not that you'd want them to. The crying didn't slow down for a good 20 minutes, and when it did, you finally looked at your phone, realizing it was damaged beyond repair. ''Shit...'' you whispered when you picked it up. Your phone was due for an upgrade by now, you had this one for nearly 5 years, but it still sucked it had to be like this.
When you went to grab your stuff and get up, you suddenly heard someone call out your name. ''Y/N!'' the voice said, but you didn't pay it much attention, there were probably multiple people with the same name there right now. They walked closer and tried again, ''Y/N, please wait up!'' and when you recognized the voice, your heart broke even more. It was Sebastian, your best friend who you haven't seen in nearly 5 years now. You turn around and when he sees your face, his smile suddenly drops. ''Doll, are you okay?'' he asks and he grabs you into a tight hug, and you start crying all over again. ''S-Seb, I'm s-sorry...'' you start, but he's shushing you and trying to get you to calm down a little bit before you continue.
Your arms wrap around his waist and your head is lying on his shoulder, letting all the emotions come out all at once, everything you've been holding in for so long. The breakup, the temporary move to New York, the loss of your brother-in-law, everything came out when you saw him. And he didn't mind, he would always be there for you no matter what. ''It's okay, doll, I'm here with you. Everything is okay now,'' he said in your hair, giving you soft kisses to calm you down. Once you had calmed down a bit you let go of him and he put his hands softly on the sides of your face, looking into your eyes. Those eyes he hadn't looked into for almost 5 years. The eyes belong to his best friend, the woman he loved more than anything in this world. ''What's wrong? Do you want to talk about it?'' he asks, and you agree.
The two of you decide to go to a coffee shop nearby where you can sit down and warm up a little bit. ''So, how's life been treating you?'' he asks you, holding your hand to ground you a little bit. ''Like absolute shit, to be honest,'' you say with a chuckle. ''You?'' ''Well, it's okay. I just got done filming and I won't have another filming job for a few months, so that's nice, but my ex-girlfriend recently broke up with me, and that is still a very fresh wound. Especially in the spotlight,'' he sighs, thinking back to the moment his ex-girlfriend called it quits after 3 years together, she couldn't get over the relationship the two of you shared. You texted and called often, but since you were both on different schedules all the time, you never saw each other.
''Well, I know the feeling. Just before you found me, my ex-boyfriend broke up with me - over the phone no less,'' you said, tears welling up in your eyes again. ''Jesus Christ, what a sick bastard...'' Sebastian cursed softly, and you couldn't agree more. The waitress brought both your coffees and you thanked her politely before she left to help other customers. ''And if that isn't bad enough, Lily lost her husband 6 months ago in a car accident, and she's not the same since then. It is really taking a toll on her, so I temporarily live with her now,'' you explain. You can see the heartbreak on Sebastian's face. ''I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier, but it didn't feel like something to tell you over the phone or text...'' you said softly. ''That's not what bothers me, doll, what's bothering me is the fact that he's gone, he was such an amazing guy...'' he said, thinking back to him, he had met your brother-in-law a handful of times, and they always got along well.
''Yeah, Lily isn't taking it well either, which is completely understandable of course. So I temporarily live back in New York now, instead of Phoenix. I have to say that I had to get used to the different weather here,'' you say, followed by a soft laugh. Sebastian smiled at you when you said that, making your cheeks burn up a little bit. You move your eyesight somewhere else instead of looking at Sebastian, so he won't see you blush, suddenly your coffee seems very interesting. ''Oh yeah, somehow it slipped my mind that you live there now,'' he said. ''I should come visit you sometime,'' he said, and you agreed.
The both of you talked for another hour and a half about everything and nothing at the same time when your phone suddenly rang. You completely forgot about it and when you pulled it out of your pocket you saw the cracked screen again. ''Shit, I don't think I can use this anymore...'' you said and Sebastian offered his. ''Wanna use mine to call them back?'' he asked and you agreed. It was your sister who called and when she picked up she was surprised it was Sebastian. ''Sebastian? Are you okay?'' she asked. ''Love, it's me. My phone is broken so I'm using Sebastian's for now. Is something going on?'' you asked, worry laced thick throughout your voice.
''I'm okay, but I'm feeling lonely so I was wondering when you'd come home, but if you're with Sebastian it's okay if you stay out some more,'' she said with a little chuckle, she knows how much you missed him. ''How about I take him with me to your apartment? That way we can all catch up together,'' you offered and she agreed. ''See you soon love,'' you said before hanging up and handing the phone back to Sebastian. ''Can we just make a stop before heading home? I think it might be smart to get a new phone...'' you said with a sheepish grin on your face, and Sebastian couldn't help but laugh and agree. He went to pay for the coffee and you went on your way to get a new phone and to your sister's apartment.
At this moment, everything felt right again. You were reunited with your best friend, you were back in your hometown of New York, and you finally had a new phone. Life felt pretty freaking good right now, and you wouldn't change a single thing.

I don't think Layover did great tbh. Terrible on YouTube (including all his MVs, Tiny Desk, and music show performances), underperformed in the biggest music markets, did poorly on k-charts (that debut was abysmal compared to the other members), predicted for less first week albums in the US than D-Day despite an extra version (but waiting on chart). Here’s a chart I’ve seen floating around Twitter that gives a good idea. Probably need to verify some of it, but I think it’s mostly accurate...
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/F6LDbz4bYAADB7M?format=jpg&name=medium
His fanbases started working really hard on his first week Spotify streams when they realized he wasn’t doing great anywhere else, so he ended up with higher first week streams than FACE and LC, but barely, and most of his streams came from SEA (which isn’t a big deal or anything, but a lot of it was definitely from mass streaming farms). He also had a massive day 8 drop and allegedly way lower than day 8 for FACE. And let’s note that Layover has one extra song instead of an interlude too. He’s also higher on some official album charts, but that’s only because FACE wasn’t eligible because it’s an EP. He had much bigger overall album sales, but we were expecting that with vbar. I think they bought like 840k? So over 1/3 of his sales.
Unless I’m missing some achievements or got something wrong (I haven’t kept up with everything), I think it was a pretty meh debut considering all the promo he did and the fact that he’s “the most popular member”. They only have those first week streams, pretty sure. LMA has had good longevity though, so I guess we'll see. And BTW, they’re saying his hot100 performance was hurt because of DC2 sales being gone, which, sure, but he had 50k Slow Dancing CDs to compensate, way more than LC, and they couldn't even completely sell them out. I think his stans were using VPN to buy on iTunes in the US too because a few days in he went from 1 to 44 on iTunes chart with no explanation and never recovered. Curious what his final sales end up being. I'm not saying he did bad, but I don't think it's really anything to brag about either... I haven't seen a ton of objective people talking about it though so idk for sure.
The spreadsheet is killing me hahahs #dedication. I would like to know the missing numbers and positions, tho! Still, thank you.
I knew about kcharts, youtube, albums, and first week on spotify for the album. I saw some number that I assume included his prereleases, and it really is nothing major considering the first tracks released, and the fact that it had one more song than face. Just five minutes ago I saw that on their 8th day, like crazy (combined) had the same number of streams as Taehyung's entire album??
Sidenote: if there's one thing I was forced to learn this year, is how much difference combined versions of a song can make.
I don't think he had that much of international promo, or at least I didn't see it. I know he's been to A LOTTT of korean shows, and also his promo for pre-releases was already longer than Jimin's, but I think he just comes across as a really uninteresting person so I don't know if people would actually tune in to his music, no matter how many times they see him on TV. He definitely got more than Jimin, that's 1000% for sure, even if we consider the MVs alone; he got the same thing Jimin was denied.
I knew he'd get more albums sales, because past experience. And I knew they'd try hard to stream to break some "records", even if it won't hold up for too long. I also knew he doesn't really have many fans in the US, (I still think Jimin's the most popular member there). I've also been saying since the day I opened this blog that his "popularity" is overrated and he's never really been in the same league as Jimin when it comes to music. I blew off so many people here who would come up to me and try to convince me he was competition to Jimin or better than him in some way.
I guess the only thing I'm surprised with is youtube. I got his tiny desk video on my homepage today (saved it to watch later) and it has less than 300k views.......... It's kinda crazy. I wonder if part of the reason he got his visual album was because his youtube numbers were usually better than everyone else's combined and they believed he'd do good.
Oh, and the songs credits. It's unbelievable to me that he did NOTHING on it. People who work on songs get credits even for writing two words, so I just can't wrap my mind around the fact that he didn't do anything at all.
I'm also curious if they would've restocked the digital CD had it been sold out, but my gut tells me they wouldn't have, or it would've been just one more, and a smaller batch.

https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/gaylor-taylor-swift-gay-rumor-midnights-1234585574/
Queer narrative/gay rumors from an official publication has started!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ROLLING STONES
OH MY GOD??
Tumblr media
AUGUST HAS OFFICIALLY slipped away, which means Taylor Swift fans are now counting down the days until the release of her 10th studio album, Midnights — but stans are already using the time, and subsequent new content, to re-earth some of their most beloved conspiracy theories.
From what Swift has released, the album concept is focused on music written at night that grapples with fears, worries, and other things that keep you from peaceful sleep. Swift called the album the “stories of 13 sleepless nights” throughout her life, and encouraged her fans to meet her at midnight — which immediately sent fans scurrying to see all the clues leading up to the announcement they had missed.
One stan that remains year after year is #Gaylor. An ever-growing contingent of fans believe that Taylor Alison Swift is secretly gay. And after seeing the concept for Midnights, they’re convinced this might be the album where she finally admits it to the world.
#Gaylor has remained a steadfast theory since Swift gained her international level of stardom. A long-standing theory is the pop star’s rumored relationship and subsequent breakup with Glee alum Diana Agron. Agron and Swift were spotted together on outings and at birthday parties, making the gossip so mainstream that Jimmy Kimmel asked Agron if she was dating Swift during a 2012 appearance on his late-night show. She replied “No, but wouldn’t that be juicy,” before saying “Hi, Taylor” and blowing the pop star a kiss into the camera. Following the release of 1989, fans linked lyrics from the song “Wonderland” to Agron’s Alice in Wonderland themed tattoo.
The theory gained an even bigger foothold during the pop star’s 2015 “Girl Squad” era, when she was often surrounded by a plethora of leggy, mostly-blonde, famous best friends like Cara Delevigne, Gigi Hadid, Hailee Steinfeld, and Karlie Kloss. In 2015, a Vogue spread of Kloss and Swift gave fans a decidedly not best friends vibe which sparked rumors of a whirlwind but secret love story. Around 2017’s Reputation, the most prevalent theory was that a collaged photos of eyes used in promotional material and on the album’s physical CD contained a singular photo of Kloss’ eye instead of Swift’s. After Swift debuted Folklore‘s Betty, fans went wild over the song’s premise, which is a love song full of hope sung to a girl named Betty — an energy that couldn’t be dissuaded even after Swift said it was written from the perspective of a male narrator.
Now it’s Midnights’ turn. The prevailing theory is linked to clips of Swift singing her 2017 track “New Year’s Day.” The song includes the lyrics, “But I stay when you’re lost and I’m scared and you’re turning away/I want your midnights.” Besides the heavily implied clock references in the song, which depicts lovers who stay together even after the party ends when the clock strikes midnight, fans are focusing on live clips of the song’s performance, where they claim Swift is using the words “I want her midnights.”
Pronoun game aside, fans have also pointed out that this song matches the vibe of recent promotional material, in which Taylor speaks about self imprisonment and mistakes that could have the possibility to either end her fate or help her find herself.
“We lie awake in love and in fear, in turmoil and in tears,” she wrote in her album announcement. “We stare at walls and drink until they speak back. We twist in our self-made cages and pray that we aren’t — right in this minute — about to make some fate altering mistake.”
For any other artists, such specific theories might seem a little far-fetched, but T-Swift is notorious for indulging her fans’ most intense detective urges. In past projects, easter eggs have been as large as placing her album title and next single in the music video for “ME”! and as small as including a 1989 Mercedes-Benz S-Class in All Too Well: The Short Film, as a reference to her 1989 album.
Given that Swift’s career has been marked by public reaction to her relationships with very famous men, Swift fans who believe she’s straight discount the theory with interviews of her with male partners, or lyrics they believe are dedicated to Swift’s longtime boyfriend Joe Alwyn. Some even say it’s rude to equate Gaylor theories to the good fun of finding references and hidden secrets in Swift’s body of work.
But underneath the fan edits, compilations, and conspiracy theories is the genuine desire Swift fans have to understand her music as thoroughly as possible. The defining factor of Gaylor — which allows fans who believe it to remain so attached to the pop star year after year, project after project — is that the pop star has been there for them.
Swift engages with her fandom in a way that is extremely unusual — and borderline terrifying — for her level of fame. She still hosts meet-and-greets, she’s hand-delivered merch to fans’ houses, and she even threw away a years long strategy of being apolitical when her fans asked her to speak out on what she believed in. So even if Midnights isn’t the gay album of their dreams, they won’t give up the theory. They’ll play it, then pick out small bits and references they think Swift is giving them, all to let her know that when, or if, she ever decides to come out, she knows they’re there to listen.

Well, well, well...
Tumblr media
"Nobody actually knows Kate's time of birth."
Oh, really?
Are you sure?
How could you be so sure that "nobody actually knows Kate's time of birth"?
Because I know for a fact that isn't true.
Natalie Delahaye was asked to do a compatibility chart as a wedding present for Will & Kate back in 2011.
In April 2011 I was commissioned by a friend of Prince William and Catherine Middleton to produce a compatibility chart as a wedding gift to the couple who were married on 29 April 2011 at Westminster Abbey, London. Because Catherine’s time of birth has never been officially released, and there is no record of the clock-time on her birth certificate, I was very privileged to be given this information in circumstances that involved no intrusion, or any breach of privacy or trust. Despite being under no contract of confidentiality, I made the decision to wait a few years before sharing it with the astrological world.
I thought you Wales stans were experts or something? Shouldn't you know this basic fact?
Looks like to me you guys are in for a rude awakening next week. In fact, it'll be so shocking to the Wales fandom that the best equivalent I can think of is watching the Cylons show up on New Caprica at the end of season 2 of Battlestar Galactica. (One of the best season finales in television. Ever.)
youtube
It seemingly came out of nowhere, yet if you watch the episode, it was very simple in terms of how the Cylons got there.
Pretty similar when it comes to the Wales baby being born this month. (Again, 22 August 2023)
It's been pretty obvious that Kate is pregnant this year, even though plenty of her die-hard stans cannot admit it. The weight gain, the constant blazers, suddenly missing the Commonwealth Day reception, the Singaporean designer dress at Trooping the Colour, etc.
You guys are in for a rude awakening next week. Because while die-hard royal & Wales fans might excuse Will & Kate for not announcing until the last minute, everyone else--the press included--will not.
And royals should never ever give the UK tabs the opportunity to make drama. Because the UK tabs will take that opportunity and not look back. (Ask any of the Charles haters who bring up events from thirty years ago on the regular.)
After next week, the perspective of the general public regarding Kate is going to change for the rest of the decade.
Better get ready for it.
(Why yes, I did check Will & Kate's charts for a loss of respect this year [2023].)

Buddy Daddies Episode 9 "No Sweet Without Sweat"
~*~Warning: Spoilers for Buddy Daddies Episode 9 under the cut~*~
Overall this was a very cute episode with almost no angst, which means next week is going to be painful. We're entering the final arc of the season here, and things are going to ramp up.
The first thing I noticed about this episode was the background music during the scene where Kazuki, Rei, and Miri were asking Kyutaro to come to the field day. The music playing in the background was typical classic-esque music that would play in a cafe, but what caught my attention was that it was played in a minor key. (Don't ask me which key, I don't have perfect pitch.) Minor keys are often used in music to signal ominous things. If I have my music theory straight, D-minor is considered the saddest key. It'd be interesting to know exactly which key this piece was played in.
Another thing that caught my eye was the way the shot zoomed in on Kyutaro's face when his eyes narrowed, and then the immediate cut to the opening song. This does not bode well, and combined with the musical implications I am starting to get an inkling that Kyutaro will betray our protagonists.
Rei going overkill to secure a spot was hilarious and also very touching. He went out in the middle of the night to secure the best spot to watch Miri. However, the barbed wire monstrosity was a bit much. Plus the way he just easily vaulted over the brick wall? He missed his calling as an Olympic gymnast smh.
Also Kazuki's camera setup kills me. I grew up with a dad who loves to take pictures and has all the snazzy cameras, but even he never used three at once. Look at that telescoping lens on the middle one! Kazuki is prepared.
Tumblr media
The discord helped me identify the brand that the cameras spoof off of. If you look at the marking on the camera, you'll see that it says "Milox", which is a spoof of Nilox. Here's a screencap so you can see it clearly.
Tumblr media
I think somebody needs to tell Kazuki that this is not what people usually mean by "fun fact".
Tumblr media
Absolutely dying at the fact that the daycare mamas still believe the whole "oil baron and washed-up comedian" story. 😂 What kind of fanfiction-type bullshit has Kazuki been coming up with?
Miss Anna is the MVP of tug-of-war. We stan a queen.
Tumblr media
Poor Taiga has managed to make enemies for life out of both Rei and Kazuki. That child isn't going to make it to elementary school.
What really got me about this episode was that the leitmotif I've nicknamed "Miri's Family" started playing the minute Rei unfolded the scavenger hunt card that says "family", and it doesn't stop playing until the field day is officially over. I think that's the longest we've heard it play! I'm almost in tears bc Rei and Kazuki have realized that Miri thinks of them as a family. A big moment for the both of them, and the leitmotif makes it all even more touching.
But the post-credit scene. Ah fuck. It's October now, and Kyutaro has yet to either give the organization information or tell Rei and Kazuki. So his decision so far is not to decide? It looks like the organization is starting to get antsy and press for information. Kyutaro better abide by what he told Rei and Kazuki in episode 5:
Tumblr media
One final note: It's absolutely hysterical how wrong my predictions were for this episode:
The daycare mamas' group chat pops up again, probably speculating on Rei and Kazuki's relationship history or how they got Miri
Rei and Kazuki get way over-invested bc they don't understand the idea of "friendly competition". (Almost a given, especially after that promo video 😂)
Kyutaro will show up at least once, likely in the post-credit scene
the post-credit scene will be the the only part of the episode that addresses the request for information.
We will get a hilariously over-the-top training montage where Kazuki and Rei coach Miri. I'm talking like on the order of the dodgeball episode of spy x family where the kiddos were climbing a jungle gym but it looked like mountain climbing 😂
we get at least one new important musical theme, or one becomes important that wasn't earlier.
I'm at 2 for 6 with my predictions.🤣 Maybe I'd better stick to the musical analysis...

Before I reblog more post about the TOH i just want to make clear I REALLY LIKED THE ENDING OF THE OWL HOUSE! IT WAS SUPER GOOD!
Like I'm usually super picky with endings but this felt very good and satisfying
To all those people saying it felt rushed and there were many plot threads loos Ei say WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING?
For a rushed/cancelled show i was really surprised it manges to solve most plot threads in just 44 minutes! Besides more lore ragarding the owl beast i don't think there was anything left unsolved! Each character arc was properly finished!
Like besides the owl beast my only gripe was we didn't get more content about Caleb Wittebane and everything that went down but I already expected that!
Like what I wanted was for Caleb to have his own voice and tell his story instead of it being told by others(and therefore warped) because I wanted people to truly knew him, and his legacy to not be tainted by below anymore (so hunter could see Caleb was more than just another witch hunter or for the clawthores to know his origin) but i always knew for that an episode a la A tale of two Stans would have need and that was possible with the cancellation/time constraints.
We already got a general idea of what happened with both the Hollow mind pictures and Masha's retelling of the story. It's not like we werent given info about we were just missing details.
But that's it! Details!
But that's something that wasn't as necessary for the plot.
As as much as it hurts me Caleb and his story also worked perfectly left as an open history (thus giving them more a sense of a folklore story that haunts the narrative)
It worked perfectly with the story and it's themes
Also something that can easily be inferred as something that was slowly recovered with Hunter and Luz and the Clawthornes researching more about the past) which they are shown to be doing! (Since Thanks to them Hunter was shown to be researching about Caleb and we know that Gus got Belos memories >
I didn't need an official confirmation of Evelyn being Clawthornes to know it, Danna left all the pieces there for us the viewers to pick it.
The same with what went down with Caleb in general.
The same to know Odalia and Alador got divorced and she was cut from her kids lives.
Raeda are together even if there wasn't a onscreen wedding.
The bat queen and it's palismen found a home.
Or how the fight between the archivist and the titans went.
Or the lore behind the archivists.
Even hootys Lore wasn't really needed for the show ending.
For such a short time they had Dana and the crew did an amazing work of closing on screen stuff that need to be closed that way and for less important things they left enough hints for us to viewers to pick up
LIKE THEY DIDNT HAVE TO BUT THE MADMEN MANAGED TO DO IT SQUEEZING EVERY SINGLE SECOND AND PIXEL THEY COULD!
That's an amazing feat!
For a rushed work the end product feels surprisingly complete and satisfying. very carefully crafted with all the love and care in the world

I Get a Sugar Rush Whenever I'm With You - Chapter 6.1
Good evening fellow Drukkari stans, or whatever time it is for you! We're officially over the halfway mark in terms of chapters! I honestly wasn't sure I would even make it this far, so if you're still reading, thank you for being here ❤️ If you missed any chapters before this, I made a table of contents that you can find here. Last week, Druig won Star Baker, but more importantly, Makkari's coming over! What will happen next? Find out now, in the next installment of Drukkari in the Great British Bake Off!
Tumblr media
Druig had agonized for days over Makkari’s visit. He really wasn’t sure how it had even happened. One minute, she was talking about éclairs. The next, he’s scheduling a time for her to come over. If they hadn’t been texting about it, he would’ve thought he was mistaken. But once he was sure it was happening, he’d cleaned everything from top to bottom – twice. Not that there was much to clean. Druig lived alone and didn’t keep too many possessions. In fact, after he finished cleaning, he wondered if he should go out and buy more stuff just so his place didn’t look so barren. She might think he was a serial killer with how clean and empty it looked.
Unfortunately, it was too late to redecorate. He heard a knock at the door and felt his heart immediately drop to his stomach. Taking a deep breath, he walked to the door as calmly as he could and opened it. Makkari stood there with her arms full of groceries and the biggest smile on her face, and suddenly, Druig’s nerves began to dissipate. He invited her in, taking some of the bags to the kitchen for her. As he set them down, he looked up to see her taking in the room. She turned back to him with a sly smile and asked, Does your flat always smell this strongly of citrus, or were you making a lemon cake before I got here?
He wasn’t even thinking about how his place must smell with all the cleaning products he’d used. Druig felt himself physically cringe as he said, Sorry, I can open a window.
She chuckled as she thanked him. He could still hear her laughing softly as he slid the window open. When he turned back around, she simply asked, Shall we get started?
Oh, you intend to help? he replied teasingly. The great Makkari stoops to lend a hand instead of making me do all the work?
I always intended to learn to make them myself! she answered with mock offense. But I figured it’d be easier if I had you with me the first time at least.
Very well, I’ll teach you, he said, trying not to smile too widely.
Once they’d unpacked all the ingredients, they got to work. Although she was following his instructions, Druig couldn’t help but marvel at Makkari’s skill. The way she expertly mixed the ingredients for the choux pastry. The way she carefully watched the custard and intuitively knew exactly when to turn off the heat. The way she quickly and nimbly popped the pastries into the oven. He hadn’t realized he’d been staring until she looked up at him expectantly. Coming back to himself, he simply asked, Sorry, what did you say?
I said what’s next? she answered, a smile tugging at her lips.
Now, we wait, he said. Do you want a cup of tea?
She nodded, so he set to work putting the kettle on. Once the tea was ready, he brought two steaming mugs to his tiny kitchen table, where Makkari was already seated. He asked her about her week so far, and she launched into a story about a presentation she’d been curating for work about the Emerald Tablet, which Druig happily listened to. She was only a quarter of the way into it when the oven dinged. Soon, it was time to decorate the éclairs. They had barely finished putting the icing on the last one when Makkari started eating. She leaned against the counter and sighed contentedly. Druig couldn’t contain his smile as he asked, Good?
I didn’t think it was possible, but somehow, they’re even better this time, she said, her own smile overtaking her face.
Maybe because you made them yourself, he suggested.
Still your recipe, she replied. I just followed it.
You executed it much better than I did the first time I tried making them. I curdled the custard and burnt the choux.
Everyone does that the first time they make éclairs.
Did you?
No, my éclairs are always flawless, obviously.
They both laughed at that. Once they calmed down again, Druig decided to sample them. Makkari wasn’t kidding. As the mixture of chocolate, cinnamon, and chili powder hit him, he felt his mouth start to water as he leaned on the counter next to her. She nudged him in a silent question. Putting the éclair down, he turned to her to say, You made them better.
I did? she asked, her eyebrows shooting up in surprise.
They were good before, but they’ve never been this good when I made them alone. Arishem definitely would’ve given you a handshake if he’d tasted these.
I can see it now, she began, then coached her face into a stoic expression. Makkari, the choux is perfect. The texture is just right, the custard is very smooth, and the flavors – beautifully balanced. I can’t fault it.
She then offered him her hand, which he readily took. They managed to maintain eye contact for about three seconds as they shook hands before both of them caught the giggles. Once he calmed down a bit, Druig managed to get out, That was dead on!
Thank you! Makkari replied, giving a little bow. Let me know if you need anything else judged.
I’d have you judge all my bakes if I could, he said, a little too quickly. Her eyes widened ever so slightly.
Well, if you want to bake anything else for me, she began, her eyes gaining that signature mischievous twinkle.
If I didn’t know any better, I’d think you were trying to trick me into giving up the rest of my recipes before the show, get a leg up on me, he replied, raising an eyebrow at her.
Damn, you’ve seen right through my master plan! she responded, unable to keep the smile off her face. She grew slightly more serious as she continued, Then again, we might be breaking some rules just by meeting up outside of the competition like this.
That’s probably true, Druig affirmed, nodding thoughtfully. But he couldn’t help but grin when he added, If you don’t tell, I won’t tell.
Makkari easily returned his smile as she answered, Deal.
-
Had to bring it back again, it's too cute 😄 Hope you enjoyed the fluff!!

This ask is a bit long, so my apologies, but I did provide links and times, so I hope that helps.
So JIBCon 12 is this weekend and it’s just past Saturday and already Jensen has made a few comments that have both AAs and Jared stans losing their minds, the former calling him a sassy king and the later calling him a backstabbing jerk to Jared. So, Jared couldn’t make it to the con because of scheduling with Walker (Richard also cancelled and Matt's flight was cancelled so he is missing the con, too). So, the first apparently sassy/deplorable thing Jensen said was a joke about him almost not making it and the people who couldn’t make it at about 2:30-2:55 min ( https://youtu.be/ZQ25vdTq6Oo). So, both sides who are delighted/ outraged are saying this is a dig at Jared and either praising Jensen or crucifying him for throwing Jared under the bus. Based on the tone, I don’t feel like Jensen was being particularly shady, but I could see him being annoyed Jared didn’t come. What are your thoughts based on his tone?
Also, Jensen and Misha joked that Jared sent them a pic from his pool with Jensen suggesting EPs can slack off and make their own schedules, but he followed it up with saying Jared was bummed to miss it at about 29:25-30:50 ( https://youtu.be/9F0hGjPIiz4 ). I think their joking is a bit lame and clumsy, but I don’t think they are actually crapping on Jared here, but some are claiming Jensen should know better than to give AAs fuel. But, I don’t think they need fuel to go on a Jared hate spree. I also think Jensen and Misha's clumsy joke was awkward, but was also setting up what would happen later when Jared joined the con live during Misha's panel at around 9:23 ( https://youtu.be/aOU2WOu4JeM ). Some are saying Jared saw Jensen and Misha being salty about him on Twitter and was showing them up by joining the convention, and others were saying Jared was rude to interrupt Misha's panel. But, seriously, to get him up on screen the con organizers had to know this was coming, no? Thus, Jensen and Misha also knew, so they were just setting things up? Do you have any thoughts on this?
If you are able to take a minute to reply, thank you in advance. I don’t particularly have a dog in this fight, but I’m interested in your opinion as you seem to be a pretty neutral party and can see beyond the stan high emotions. Is Jensen sing an ass and shading Jared, or is he just being snarky, kind of thoughtless?
Fans never have the power they think have, especially from a handful of non-paying basement dwellers.
In the first clip, Jensen said "they send their....they didn't say shit", obviously plural since "they" is not Jared's official pronoun. Richard is the unofficial MoC, and Matt serves similar capacity at cons. Including Jared's absence, JibCon is missing the top 3 hosts that carries the con. You know Jensen is feeling the pressure to carry the entire weekend. I saw on the dash that con-goers were reporting that the energy level was way down and hoping that Jensen's arrival will magically change everything.
In the second clip the crowd didn't react to the jokes by Jensen and Misha, either because the crowd didn't understand the tone of the joke because English is not their 1st language or because they were still bummed over Jared's absence.
Remember kids, drama is easy, comedy is hard. Comedy is even harder to translate into another culture.
I agree it was a clumsy set up for Jared's virtual appearance during Misha's panel. These things are planned and arranged ahead of time.  Lol no Jared was not being salty over Jensen and Misha’s joke, I think this set up would have gone better over with an American audience because at least the men would understand the joke as males love to riff on eachother.  Men socialise by insulting each other, but don’t really mean.  It’s a way to toughen each other up, because if you can’t take some good-natured ego jabs from your boy, how can you stand up to your true enemies?  If you can hold your own against me, you’re my equal blah blah it’s a guy thing.
From what I’ve seen of the con so far, the actors are on their better behavior, though maybe because the usual suspects are missing and filled in by one last minute replacement, so the vibe between them are off.
