“catch-22″ by joseph heller
finished: june 30, 2023
I DID IT, AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS IN MY ADOLESCENCE AND MAYBE 1-2 OTHER TIMES DURING MY TWENTIES, I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO READ THIS BOOK. ooooof, we’ve a lot to unpack here!
idk what it was about starting this book and not being able to keep going. i think my ability to not get through this book was probably one of the biggest indicators that traditional reading, while preferred, was not my most efficient way of capturing books and stories. i’m fine with that now, but it took me a long time and some significant ego death to get here. basically, i loved this book, it’s everything i always wanted from a war novel, it’s satire and whimsy and absurd and unchronological and the characters are not reliable narrators and the novel is relentlessly indirectly addressing so much about america, war, soldiers, and the human condition. all rolled into one book. supremely masterful.
my only criticism about the book is that i think it was too long. i do, however, love the way we were able to get so in depth with all the characters, all the angles that came with their decisions, and it wasn’t just solely focused on “yossarian good guy, we want to bring him home!” but there was so much more to it than that. i think the parts i didn’t particularly care for were the action scenes, but also some of the funniest moments were in there, too. idk, i might have a different opinion on this upon a second read, and this is a novel i’ve had a hardcopy of for years, so i will certainly be reading it again.
i also have to point out the irony of me reading this book right now, just before the 4th of july holiday. other war holidays (memorial day, labor day, veteran’s day {damn we have so many holidays about war and military huh lol}) maybe take a back seat to 4th of july this year, if for no other reason than the fourth falling on a tuesday this year, and therefore providing me a four day weekend instead of the usual three day weekend. as a child, i was a good lil american and would be excited to go see fireworks, we would have pie or whatever, my mom always bought us the newest line of old navy shirts with the american flag plastered all over them. as i grew into my own person and learned what america was really all about, specifically our military operations, i drifted away from this holiday and all its traditions. i don’t fight about it with my parents but it’s sort of like how my husband stopped going to church and his parents had a hard time accepting it at first, but eventually understood that was who he was; i don’t need this holiday and i don’t need to jerk off america. don’t get me wrong, love to all the soldiers and everything, but the principal of the matter is i don’t think anyone should die in war, ever, the fact that war even exists at all is so bizarre and insane to me. humans adapted over millions of years, learned to use tools and the resources available to us, built fires and homes and cities and made social structures and communities... all just to have it blasted away because of greed and racism, basically. tell me any war or “conflict” is about anything else, i dare you. it’s not. it’s always those two, sometimes both.
anyways, i grew up around my parents and my parents’ parents watching M*A*S*H and the like. my grandpa served in the army as well as other family friends and extended family members. near the end of my grandpa’s life, when i had enough curiosity and inquisition to ask about his military life is when he dwindled away to barely even being able to acknowledge it at all... so i never really got anything negative about war or the military, if anything it’s been super glorified throughout my life. queue soldiers coming to high school campuses to recruit, 9/11, and more friends and family joining different branches of the government and it’s been quite a different story. all that is to say that i’ve never felt comfortable with the idea of war, or even organized military, and these days i “celebrate” my long fourth of july weekends with my husband and cats, not seeking out fireworks and not wearing any flags. i think the last time i wore an american flag was when i was 16, i’m ashamed to admit that but it’s true.
catch-22 and joseph heller provides exactly the counterpoints to military operations that we need to hear. unfortunately, like most well-intentioned novels, the people who need to hear these ideas most are the least likely to be exposed or actually think critically about it. they are the next major major majors and will eventually become major major major majors in their obedience and loyalty, unless they get unalived in combat first. i deeply love how some parts of this novel were so whimsy and absurd, but that ending with snowden is gut-wrenching. also the alley scene in italy... with the SA. if you’ve read the book, you know the one. joseph heller is a remarkable author and i would be interested in other works of his but this is definitely an immediate favorite of mine.
the audiobook i borrowed on libby also had an extra 40 minutes of joseph heller reading selections from the novel and maaaaaaaan i wish i could buy this section alone and/or see him perform it with my own eyes. heck, it inspires me to recreate some of his prose and monologues. the back and forth between some of the characters becomes so painstaking that you can’t help but laugh. great book, immediate favorite, can’t wait to read it again and if you are like me and somehow got by 3 decades in life without finishing this book... HERE’S YOUR SIGN.
now i’m gonna reblog a bunch of things that resonated with me, but i know my favorite parts aren’t rebloggable. just read it, guys! for the love of humanity.
rating: 10/10 this deeply resonated with me, i will re-read it again numerous times and recommend it to anyone i know, the story and characters will stick with me forever; crave discussing it all the time and bring it up unprovoked

Started the 4th season of Stranger Things, gonna post my thoughts as I finish episodes so like, potential spoiler alert
okay so episode one
The entire Jonathan/Nancy scene made me so angry lmao STOP WASTING MY TIME WITH THIS GARBAGE
The whole tone is different?? Like the previous seasons had that kinda tropey jokey feeling from time to time but it took itself a little more seriously, especially season 1. But this one is like... wacky silly camera angles and sweeping swinging shots between scenes and goofy wacky prop comedy hehe finishing each other's sentences even though they're not together or talking about the same thing uhhhhhh it's just very silly
Not that that is BAD... just different
I like Eddie so far though. I thought he was gonna be a little Too Much™️ but by the end of the episode I decided that yes I like him. I can already see there being a point later on when his whole "theres no shame in running away" line is gonna either come in clutch or come back to bite him or someone else in the ass. Im gonna make a prediction that there's gonna be a scene where there's an option to run or fight and he's gonna stay and fight and then either save the day or die valiantly. Bonus points if throughout the show he constantly says to run away or chooses to run away until finally he's like "no, not this time" and then bam dead
I'm not mad at the whole "Lucas wants to be popular while the rest are content with being freaks" drama. Like I know it's kinda overdone but this show has always played into the popular tropes to create some tension between the characters so I don't think it's too weird
Eleven's drama is fine too. Being the new kid and getting bullied and also grappling with grief of losing her parent, I get it. She's acting kinda pitiful though? Like, she's always been really straightforward and strong and unyielding and now she's kinda just... rolling over? I understand she's in an entirely new environment and dealing with grief and loss of her abilities but still....
Pretty sure the skull monster thing is Papa. Maybe. Idk like it's weird that they're showing it so immediately in the first episode and it's just... preying on people's trauma, I'm guessing? Strange. But not Stranger Things Strange.
Idk so far I'm wondering how it's going to connect to the past seasons. Right now it feels like I'm watching a whole different show.
God I just hope there's less Nancy and Jonathan. Or their entire fucking plot lines aren't completely about their stupid fucking terrible romance. They have no chemistry and I despise their whole shtick. They'd be so much better characters if their stories were based more around being a big brother/sister to Will and Mike
Honestly idc about any of the romances other than Joyce and Hopper. Unless Steve and Eddie fuck because I'd be amenable to that. I might care about Robyn and Vickie but haven't seen enough of Vickie yet so who knows, they might wind up as boring as Jonathan and Nancy (or any of the kids' romances which I also don't care about even though they're not really terrible or whatever)
Erica is perfect as always though. I reeeeeeally liked the scene where that chick is singing the national anthem and Erica and the boys are slow motion walking to their dnd game. With the American flag cape? You can't spell America without Erica!
No further comments. Will watch another episode tomorrow

im sorry im sorry im sorry i know it’s been well over a year but i accidentally thought about Short Trips: Deleted Scenes (again) and it’s killing me (again) so i think im just gonna go ahead and post all these stupid thoughts that have been plaguing me about it since i first heard it & maybe that’ll help clear up some space in my head for like, real life things.
Spoilers I guess? It’s like a year and a half old but also high key the most recent 2nd doctor content i believe we’ve gotten which is like, the only negative thing I can say about it
The TLDR version is this:
I literally cant believe how sweet it is? Painful, but sweet. Like. I don’t honestly know what’s more likely - did they set out to write Jamie a nice little straight love interest and just fail miserably at it by constantly likening her to the Doctor AND paralleling the Doctor’s perspective with her ex’s AND putting Jamie’s relationships with both of them in direct tension with each other while constantly letting his with the Doctor win out?
OR - did they do a very 1960s thing and say hey we’re gonna write what’s essentially a story about how much Jamie and the Doctor love each other and release it on Valentine’s Day thinly disguised as a one-off romance with a french lady?
Now, as a general rule, my attitude toward questions like that is usually “don’t know, don’t care, doesn’t matter” - and while I 100% stand by that, I also have to admit that this particular audio seems to pay enough attention to detail that I’d kind of think I was selling it short if I assumed too many of these things were just meaningless coincidences, you know?
Anyway, that’s the most coherent/overarching thought. And here’s a disorganized list of things I absolutely cannot get over about it (they don’t form any kind of argument, mind, they just all happen to live rent free in my head):
- Celine is first taken in by Jamie being an idiot (specifically him claiming not to speak French, in perfect French); likewise, her entrance in the scene where they actually kiss is marked with a little anecdote about her hat getting stuck on a doornail and her scolding it as she attempts to fix her un-tameable appearance, and the narration says Celine “would often clown for Jamie like this” - all of which, while undeniably adorable, don’t exactly strike me as entirely original traits to have been assigned to Jamie’s love-interest (but also Celine is so cool and her perspective on film/media/time is an excellent addition to the long list of dr who characters)
- When they’re in the present, describing Jamie’s relationship with Celine in 1908, they call him her “companion” and highlight his going nearly everywhere with her, which earns a laugh from the 4th doctor (and me as well, though probably for slightly different reasons - but like, is that really all it takes to have a fling with someone in 60′s era who? bc if so...)
- Celine’s ex-fiance is still in love with her and is jealously watching when she kisses Jamie ... and then the Doctor appears beside him, evidently doing the exact. same. thing. They have the following conversation:
“You know, it’s not prudent to spy on people. But then, people in pain can’t be expected to act prudently.”
“Pain, monsieur? You mistake me.”
“Ah, do I? Good, because I rather thought you’d lost something.”
“What would you know about loss monsieur?”
- I’m sorry doc but who do you think you are, saying stuff like that and smiling sadly at the floor to boot? I 100% had to pause it here the first time I listened, just to not throw my laptop across the room. 
- Then when I recovered continued, the Doctor closes the door so they can’t watch anymore and explains “Possessing things comes so terribly easily to some men that losing them can feel cruel, intolerably cruel. In my experience, only the very best of men cannot be tempted to answer that cruelty with more - I do sincerely hope that you are the best of men.” (guess who gets described as the best of men by the end of the audio?)
- Jamie and the Doctor apparently develop a habit of walking along the river in Paris in silence
- During one such walk, Jamie suggests Celine come with them since she already figured out about the Tardis - and when the Doctor’s worried by this, he says he only allowed Jamie & Celine to grow closer “because of Victoria.” Jamie takes offense at the ‘allowing it’ comment and also refuses to admit he knows what the Doctor means about Victoria, which leads the Doctor to say that he knows how fond Jamie was of her - he was too, of course, but with him, “it was different, wasn’t it?” Jamie only says maybe that’s true and maybe that’s not, but his voice catches until he changes the subject
- Jamie doesn’t see Celine for days both times that she’s recovering from the shock and depression of her work being destroyed. In contrast, when the Doctor’s not well, Jamie’s "afraid” and “guilty” and hardly seems to leave his side at all, if his being there “rushing to embrace him” the second he wakes up - after a period Jamie describes as “at least a week” - is anything to go by, anyway. so either bf writers need to learn how to write a committed straight relationship or admit that’s not what they ever intended in the first place
- Oh yeah, and the Doctor spends that week "asleep” in Jamie’s bedroom - no, there’s no explanation as to if that’s where he was when he first collapsed or if it’s where Jamie decided to take him bc why would they feel the need to explain him being there? why was it even relevant to tell us it was Jamie’s room in the first place?
- The Doctor somehow manages to control the Tardis enough to take Celine on one trip to an alien planet and then return to the correct time & place for her to use the footage she recorded there in her new film - and while the audio doesn’t do very much to explain how that was possible, it does treat this as A Pretty Big Deal, and immediately afterward the Doctor has to spend a week communing with his past self (and/or the Tardis?) debating how likely it is that the Time Lords could use this to trace him. When he decides it’s not worth the risk and they have to stop the film from ever being shown to the public, Jamie asks why he agreed to it in the first place, and all he can say is “Because, Jamie, you asked me to!” earning awkward stares from the crowd.
- Oh, but, lest we forget, that little outburst is also immediately followed by him putting his arm around Jamie’s shoulders, and, shockingly, apparently beginning to actually explain the truth about the danger from the Time Lords - until they’re interrupted, of course idk why exactly but the idea of a 60s dr wanting to come clean with a companion but not being allowed to bc the show demands the war games be something of a reveal hurts me in a very good way
- The mental image of “the Doctor and Jamie, resplendent in borrowed evening wear”
- The audio admitting that Jamie’s not very good at subterfuge, and the Doctor asking if he’s going to be alright with them having to steal the film back from Celine - and Jamie’s little “Aye, Doctor” as he feels a ‘glass arrow piercing his chest’ glad to see bf is reading all my letters about exactly how i feel any time something sad happens to james robert mccrimmon
- The Doctor’s anxious to get out of there for obvious reasons, but he hangs around bc Jamie wants to see Celine again - which doesn’t happen, because of her aforementioned shock & depression, but she does leave Jamie a note that ends “you and that Doctor of yours - look after him Jamie, he loves you dearly, as do I.” yeah, if you didn’t want people to draw a parallel there, you could’ve picked, like, any other wording in the world.
- In case you weren’t fully convinced I’ve been reading too much into this whole audio already, consider this: Celine dies in Long Island in 1968, three days before her birthday - 1968 is when this story would’ve taken place in the show’s history (between Fury & Wheel), and dying three days before/after a birthday in America seems a bit... well I had some deja vu from it, anyway
- Four of all people being the one to bring back the film - I know he does it bc Sarah Jane makes him, but personally, I often feel like despite the length of his run, 4 is the Doctor with which we might’ve gotten the fewest glimpses into his interiority, so the fact that it’s him and not one of the more overtly sentimental Doctors makes it feel like it carries even more weight somehow, to me anyway. I think I wrote a post saying roughly the same thing about 4 & Fate of Krelos/Return to Telos but maybe I only did that inside my own head lol. Still, I’m all for any opportunities for Jamie to be one of the few characters to draw some noticeable emotion out of Four, but in fairness I haven’t touched too much of his EU stuff to really be able to compare the frequency with which this happens with other past companions
- Is Four referring to Two or Jamie when he says he got the film from “an old family friend”? Two did the actual stealing, but he probably means Jamie’s involvement - either way, it’s an interesting way of describing old companions - or selves?
- When Jemima goes to call Jamie a thief, Four is “roused” to defend him: “he really was the very best of men” again, any time four freely shows he cares about someone, im over the moon about it
- Oh ha ha, there’s an audio called “Deleted Scenes” featuring the Doctor who’s most affected by junked episodes. And at the end of it, a character who’s spent her life researching and lecturing about a lost film gets to watch it be ‘rediscovered’ after it’s gone unseen for decades. I feel marginally less stupid for reading into the other details of a story like this when it ends up deciding to be to be clever & slightly meta like that
But yeah
all in all, it’s kind of amazing to me that this genuinely reads like they sat down and said okay boys it’s valentines day, let’s write an audio where jamie kisses a girl, since that hasn’t happened except as a plot device in one story in 1967 - but then when they got down to business they accidentally(?) wrote a story all about how important his bond with the Doctor is and how easily that can be compared to a legitimate love interest (even if the love interest in question is a one off character & the extent of the relationship appears to be like one kiss & then having Jamie spend most of his time around the Doctor instead)
I realize there’s something slightly illogical about writing the words “shipping aside” after a post like this but seriously - no matter how many categories you’re able to see two & jamie’s relationship fitting into, this is 40 minutes of big finish just hitting you over the head with how powerful/special/important that relationship is, and with them being two of my favorite characters, i really haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since

JFK’s Doom Patrol Review of S3E10
I’ll be honest, the middle of this season was a drag to get through. I wasn’t happy with the direction the show was going, I didn’t care about the new characters introduced, and I was ready to stop watching. I am glad to say that this season finale has changed my feelings.
I am a lot happier with everything that happened in this episode compared to every other this season. Instead of more “Sisterhood of discount X-Men”, we got compelling interpersonal drama between characters, like Rita and Rouge, Larry and Keeg. Plus, everyone is getting a good ending! Cliff and Jane are at a good place with each other! Rita is doing something other than being sassy! Madame Rouge is gonna get a redemption arc come S4! the only outliers in this are Vic and Larry.
Vic is a tough character for me to talk about this season. If It’s not obvious by know, I have lived a white experience in America (My genetic make-up is not entirely white but it’s a complicated issue and nun ya business). I have not faced racial discrimination in my life, and I don’t have many people in my life that have (not by choice), so I don’t believe I can give a meaningful statement about the scenes in this season that depict racial discrimination and what that does to a child. I would imagine however that the show tackled the topic well, given the few things I have read on the subject.
Larry in this season has been a rough watch for people who really like his dynamic with The Negative Spirit. I know that some have sworn of the show because of this, citing that it’s just not the same or more personal reasons. It’s not surprising that many would, because a large amount of people seem to really only enjoy Larry and his relationship with The Negative Spirit in this show (or at least an affinity for him that outmatches anyone else). For me personally, I enjoy the direction the writers are taking him and Keeg (Sidenote: I’m making a difference between the alien being inside Larry in S1-2 and the alien being in S3-beyond because I’m not sure they’re the same). I think Larry needs some love in his life that is parent/child based and Keeg is a good way to bring that to him.
This episode is so poetic to S1. When Vic tells Rita “We’re not heroes”, my eyes fell out of my head. I was so amazed when Rita stopped Cliff at the baseball game, not only being able to use her powers, not only being able to use her powers like in the comics, but the two of them saying the exact same lines to each other in the Pilot. Like poetry, they rhyme.
Sometimes i think about how this series will eventually end. What I wanted them to do before i saw this episode, is to finally be rewarded for doing something heroic. When asked who they are, they say, “We’re the Doom Patrol.”, Finally deciding that this is who they want to be. So when Rita started to talk about actually being a Superhero team, I leaned forward into my seat, waited for them to say exactly what i thought they would say, and then Cliff made a Doom Force joke. Funny, but my dreams were halted another day. For the best.
I will have to re watch this season again to make an accurate judgment of it, which probably means I’ll have to re watch the show again. For the 4th-5th time. Idk. Hard to keep track. Ta-Ta for now.

Opinions on syndicate? Im just automaticly against cause you know, blowing up a country lmanberg that was basicly defenless. I liked lmanburg.
Loved L’Manberg, and personally I want Phil & Techno to get some kinda consequence for their actions, even if I sympathize with them. Like, I really don’t see much wrong with the “I warned them that I was against this, but they did it anyways” argument, which so many people seem to be against. Like, the thing with the SMP is that literally everyone acts on their own ideals and the only thing that gives them power over others is their resources and capacity for violence, so if Techno warned them that he was against governments and not to start another, him creating those Withers shouldn’t have been surprising. Was it justified, like, ethically, well obviously not, but it was justified in Techno’s eyes, given all the shit other governments have done, and really, there’s nothing that can be deemed totally ethical or unethical in the SMP because it doesn’t function like real life society does. 
Anyways I totally got off topic there, I’m just ranting at this point. Basically, I sympathize with Techno and Phil because I like their characters and the CCs. Even though I loved L’Manberg and Wilbur’s were the first videos I watched of the SMP and Tommy was the main streamer I watched for a long time and Quackity is probably my current favorite creator on the SMP, I don’t know why, but I always sided with Techno. I’m kinda in the mindset of “yeah, morally, ik he’s wrong, but also in the realm of fiction, I’d just like to see the funky pig man and Dadza commit more war crimes,” yk? 
Opinions on the Syndicate as a whole? I’m honestly fine with them in theory and I was fine with them at first, but now they’re just a lot like an actual gang? Like, they remind me of gangs in Central America that go around harrassing small businesses and families and teenage men to make sure they are acting the way *they* want them to, and function outside of the realm of the government because the government doesn’t have enough authoritative power in those regions. Idk, mate. On the other hand, the idea of a funky little underground organization that actually lets Niki Nihachu contribute and listens to her, and also has cool little secret codenames is appealing to me. I just hope they go less down the path of tyranny and hypocrisy - which Phil and Techno did hint at in their little 4th Wall break jokes Sadge - and more down the path of comedic hijinks.

I GOT SO MUCH TO SAYYY!! gosh pls dont find me weird okay, and these are just my personal opinions and im not hating any groups!! but my unpopular opinion is: i think kpop has become very toxic after bts and bp got famous in America. And tbh if you ask me, i wouldnt want any other kpop groups to be famous in America... i only stan exo but i think i speak for all groups when i say they are safe as they are now... of course if exo ever get even more famous i will be happy and proud for their success. But look how fame and America has changed bts and bp... not tryna hate but look theyve changed, idk if anyone else noticed but after fame hits bts, i realised how theyve start to become very...white?? like they are so westernised and like example, they start focusing on America only, they even curse (not a lot but i’d still point out) casually like for example, jungkook singing a curse word in his cover song for jason derulo savage love i think (speaking of cursing, after nct127 got famous in usa mark started getting influenced by them too and he casually cursed like “oh fuck” and everyones like 😃😆) even i curse and im not saying cursing is BADD but yeah i am, and how they sing a whole song in english, not to even mention how toxic america is but in grammys they have sold tons of albums yet they didnt win anything but when they release an english song, they won.
Some half of them americans are very toxic, racist, and just theyre basically acid, like bruh, its evident that once bts got famous there are soooo much hate thrown towards bts too cuz theyre asians, or how some would say theyre gay or look like girls...if my favs (exo) ever get these kinds of treatments (not that they dint but veryy little cuz thank god they ain exposed to the western culture) i will B R E A K, i could never handle that so i would never want that to happen to them. Also noticed how, after bts got famous, most armys are equally as toxic, whether they are just stanning bts just cuz theyre famous there, or like how their fans dont even know anything abt bts and coming after so many groups and their fans. Most of them are fake and i think its cuz of the fame for bts lmao. One thing i’d like to say too tho, is how they are so overrated and their songs are played all the damn time, people would randomly talk abt them, like everywhere you go THEY ARE JUST THERE, like in my opinion if i am an army, i would just feel like they are so common and theres nothing special about them anymore and theres no excitement, like what even is the point anymore. idk if anyone gets me but thats just how i feel about my favs being “wOrLdWiDe fAmOuS”, i will love them and their music but its just something i think about tbh🤷🏻‍♀️ like let me listen to them on my own and vibe and love them, dont play it 24/7 just cuz they are famous and ure tryna get people’s attention, like imagine ure in the subway and u hear ur favs song cuz its EVERYWHERE and ure there like 😐😐 not that u dont love their music but its cuz horrible people dont deserves to listen to their songs, and like people arent going to appreciate them anyway so yeah i feel uncomfortable listening to my favs as others dont even bother, like imagine if that subway is filled with people who are in ur fandom, yall would just hv the best time in the world and VIBE, if not what even is the point. Idk if im explaining it properly, but its badically like, u feeling UNCOMFORTABLE or should i even say SELFISH cuz u do not want to be sharing ur favs with people who dont even deserve to KNOW about them. Basically like seeing how someone you HATE or bullied you back then talking and being all friendly fake with ur BESTEST FRIEND or even boyfriend/girlfriend, cuz u just want to protect them from EVIL (im so dramatic)
And well lastly, no Bts did not paved the way, or “bts is the best and only group” like no, so many amazing artists were breaking records way before bts was even a thing (no hate to bts) but they really need to get slap for having that mindset, they really make a bad image for bts...tbh kpop before was so peaceful (a little toxic but still, compared to now...BYE) and everything was just about idols and fans love, listening and supporting and loving their music and just so comforting... urgh anyway thats all i wanna say and here are some texts i saved relating to kpop groups going famous worldwide uwu
Tumblr media Tumblr media
these are also examples, and honestly speaking here, i dont want to be specific as in “exo” cuz i think this happens for ALL the groups out there and the love and relationship between the idols and their fans (family) are just beautiful, but for bts and armys... tbh i feel bad because i just dont see or feel any love they hv for each other (sure we see bts saying i love you armys or armys supporting bts but with all the toxicity in their way, theres just no spark or chemistry or bond no more it’s basically like one direction and their fans and thats all they are, celebrity-fan, but for kpop its family), i can see other groups and their fans interacting or how idols would light up talking abt their fans, but for bts, theres just soooo much mess going on in their fandom its not special anymore, they lost the deep meaning of their group love and IDK HOW TO EXPLAIN IT but YEAH DJSHSKSJ OH and to add somethign else, they got famous in America, look at all the collabs🤡🤡 blackpink with cardi b, bts with nicki etc... not that collabs arent fun... im just saying these american artists... they dont exactly have a good reputation (americans singing about sex (not the good kind), money, girls and drugs) 🥴🥴 dont influenced my faves and let them be exposed to the toxic culture YALL GET ME?? KPOP HAS THE LETTER K FOR A REASON😭😭😭 let them be their own shining star, not everything has to be involved or a part of aMeRiCa to be amazing.... PHEW IVE SAID IT NOW BEFORE ANYONE GETS MAD AT ME, I DONT MEAN TO SOUND RUDE TO YOU, if youre an american and youre no where near being toxic, I LOVE YOU but im just saying, the western culture is toxic and im just saying what ive been observing and noticing🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️ ps: i still love exo till the max and everything about them is perfect and theyre just amazing people (everything i said that bts and armys dont really have anymore, i think thankfully, EXO (sorry im biased) most fandoms still have so much of the L O V E there and i find that extraordinary) and he fandom is so comforting and amazing and idk dkdjjdjss thats why i dont want them getting famous worldwide...sorry exols ANYWAY THATS ALL FOR MY RANT ITS 4AM AND I AM THINKING OF DELETING THIS💀💀💀 anywya sorry for taking up so much space but i just wanna say I FREKAING LOVE NO EXIT, NO LIMITS, basically all ur exo fics cuz why not🥺🥺 i think ur writing skills are amazing as well as the plots and all especially forsaken, and THANK YOU for two bbhxoc fics😭😭😭 i cant!!! also if u reached here idk i-🥲 i hope u didnt get mad or offended 👀

Reply under the cut!!
Kpop has become extremely toxic with the growth of international fans and the rise of 3rd/4th gen. I wasn't around to experience the previous generations, but I know damn well they weren't a mess like these newer ones are.
Gaining fame in America does seem to change idols, and idk why. The group members change and the music changes also. While I do enjoy hearing idols swear (guilty pleasure) and I am an American so I get to enjoy their English songs, I can see how it makes all the other cultures/countries feel some type of way.
I will say this, though, the Grammys are shit and I dont get why people care so much about them. They've proven time and time again the awards don't go to the best artists. However, this doesn't mean that I think BTS deserved a Grammy imo.
Americans are a very toxic and hate filled bunch (again, I am one, so I get to see this shit every day). I 100% know that some of the hate directed towards Asians is because of racism (as seen by the insane uptick in crime against Asian Americans right now) and because some see kpop male idols as too feminine.
BTS is literally everywhere, which is one of the reasons I stopped listening to them tbh. They'd be in commercials, on talk shows, late night shows, in magazines, on the radio, just everywhere. It took the joy out of watching anything from them just because they were always in my face, so I can see what you mean.
I feel like the relationship between BTS and army has changed (from an outsiders perspective). Its no longer about loving and supporting your group and being happy for them. Now, its "so-so wants this? We MUST do everything in our power and spam every possible thing ever so they get what they want". Its almost frightening. They also no longer care about the quality of the music being put out. Doesn't matter what it is, they stream the ever loving shit out of it and make it break records when, honestly, it doesn't deserve to (again imo).
Lastly, I didnt get mad or offended haha. I understand a lot of these viewpoints, and thank you so much for liking my work!! I do wonder what would happen if I made a true BBH centric fic and not just spin offs or continuations of previous works where oc ends up with BBH 🤔🤔 I think that fic would have too much power haha.

Welcome to Worlds - three
jinyoung x reader
(nonfamous! got7, also very much based off of pitch perfect)
requested, and will be split into three parts
warnings: unedited, mentions of public exposure, language, sub jinyoung, inexperienced jinyoung, just the usual sex stuff, idk i think thats it
word count: 2.7k
previous 
You and Jinyoung had ditched your groups after the announcement had been made. Got7 and The Silhouettes were moving onto the finals of the competition, with a disgruntled WayV and angry Ten being eliminated. None of that was on your mind now as Jinyoung led you through the streets of LA, the two of you practically running to this “fancy” restaurant. 
You would have believed that he was taking you somewhere nice if you hadn’t stopped in front of a 7/11. 
“Jinyoung,” you groaned, “please tell me we aren’t eating at 7/11!”
“We aren’t eating at 7/11,” Jinyoung smiled, pulling the doors to the convenience store open and grabbing your wrist, giving you no choice but to follow him into the store, “We are feasting at 7/11!”
“But why?” you asked, groaning as he pulled you down the candy aisle. 
“Because there is nothing better than a personal 7/11 party. Now pick out whatever you want, it’s my treat.”
You gave up fighting with him, walking down the aisles and grabbing a few of your favorite snacks. Then you headed over to the hotdogs, grabbing one for yourself and adding condiments to it. You met Jinyoung at the counter, sheepishly putting your haul on the counter beside him. 
“What?” You asked defensively as he looked pointedly at you, “You can’t come to America and not experience what it's like to eat a twinkie!”
Jinyong just laughed at you then, the two of you sitting on the curb right outside, opening your snacks and digging in. 
“Are you nervous about the next round of the competition?” Jinyoung asked, mouth half full of Doritos, cheese dust covering his fingers as he looked at you. 
“I guess,” you sighed, taking a sip of your water before continuing, “I just don't want another incident like last time to happen again. Plus I really wanna win.”
Jinyoung licked one of his fingers, groaning at the taste of the cheese flavoring, “If you don't want anything to happen again, you should stop wearing clothes like that,” he chuckled pointing to the cropped v-neck hoodie you were wearing. It had been pulled down slightly, exposing your cleavage more than usual. 
“Stop staring at my boobs, Jinyoung,” you laughed, fixing your shirt and pushing him lightly.
You spent a few hours sitting there, and before you knew it the sky had grown dark. Jinyoung waked you back to the hotel room, insisting to escort you all the way to your room. When he left, the girls you were rooming with demanded details, screaming about the handsome man who had just dropped you off.
It was like that for the next week, you sneaking away as much as you could to spend time with Jinyoung, oftentimes at 7/11, until one of you had to practice. Both of you practiced hard, and you could tell that Jinyoung was starting to become more stressed about the competition. You were too. The time you spent with him at 7/11 felt like a whole different world, the worries and pressure the two of you felt melting away the more time you spent with him. But now there was no more time, it was the day of the final competition and Jinyoung would be heading back to Korea tomorrow morning. 
You were getting ready in your dressing room, pulling your hair up to match the rest of the groups when a knock rang out at the door. One of the girls opened it, your attention only flickering to the person at the door after your groupmates started oohing. Jinyoung stood, not coming into the room, but eyes searching for yours in the doorway. His hands tightly wrapped around two slushies. You couldn’t help but grin, hurrying over to him and pushing him away from the curious eyes of your groupmates. 
“Couldn’t stay away?” You laughed, grabbing your favorite flavor from him.
“I mean, this is just gonna be the last time we are able to share a slushie,” he smiled sadly, “I’m gonna miss you.”
“Ahh,” you hit him gently on the chest, “don’t go soft on me now, Jinyoung. That’s not like you.”
He just stuck out his tongue at you, handing you a straw, “Do you have time to sit and drink it with me?”
“I really don’t,” you sighed, “I have to finish my make up and then we have to do warmups. We perform before you.”
“Mm, that's right,” he nodded, a sad look crossing his eyes once again, “Well,  enjoy the slushie.”
“Wait- Jinyoung,” you stopped him, switching your favorite flavors for his, “that way we will be thinking of each other as we drink them.”
“I’ll always be thinking of you,” he mumbled, but you had already gone back into your dressing room, unable to hear him. 
You got ready quickly, the slushie tasted good and brought a smile to your lips every time you drank it. Before you knew it, you were walking on stage with your group, lights blaring at your forms as you waited for the audience to stop clapping. 
Your leader gave everyone their pitch, and the song began. The choreo this time was the most difficult it had been yet, a factor that you thought would help out your scores. Got7 had complex dances, so you needed to up yours in order to beat them. 
The song was almost done, your group performing the best they ever had, and when you finished, your chest heaved. It was over, all of this was over and there was nothing you could do about the results now. 
Got7 was next and when you made your way offstage Jinyoung and the rest of the boys shouted good jobs as your group replied with good lucks. You didn’t get a chance to watch their performance because you had to get ready for the results, your nerves growing as you sat in the audience. There were still 8 groups left in the competition, and they would be calling the top four groups to the stage. 
You waited anxiously as the MC walked across the stage, past the trophies, and to the podium. He began his beginning speech, but your ears were ringing, anxiety skyrocketing as you awaited the groups to be called. 
You smiled and cheered for the two groups who were called, jumping out of your seat as your group was called. As you were making your way to the stage, Got7 was also called, a smile growing on your face as you stood next to the other teams. 
If you thought you were nervous before, you were 10x more nervous as you awaited the MC to announce what place you had gotten, hoping and praying your group had pulled off a win. 
The first two groups got 3rd and 4th place, and you held your breath as the mc pulled the results from a sealed envelope. 
“And second place goes to,” The MC paused, your heart beating so loudly in your chest that you swore you wouldn’t be able to hear him announce the results, “GOT7!”
You felt the girls around you start screaming, incredulous looks thrown around the girls you considered your closest friends. You had won. The Silhouettes had won, you had beat Got7. 
You gripped your first place trophy, all of your members holding it above your heads as you chanted. The adrenaline of winning causing smiles, laughter, and tears to spread through the group of girls. 
You had missed Jinyoung, by the time your group stopped celebrating Got7 had already returned to the hotel. Although that caused a twinge of sadness, you were too ecstatic about winning to let it get you down. Your group decided to spend time at the hotel spa in celebration of the hard work you had put in the last couple of months to get here. To be the number one acapella group in the world. 
You had spent most of your time in the sauna, your groupmates long gone from the spa as you just sat and relaxed. The peace and quiet helping calm all of the wide range of emotions you were feeling. 
You opened your eyes as the door to the sauna opened. A broad-shouldered man had entered, his back to you as he closed the door firmly. When he turned, he gasped. You just smiled, Jinyoung staring at you, glancing down to the towel wrapped around your body and then back up to your eyes. 
“Wh-what are you doing here?” he stuttered, his grip on his towel so tight you could see the whitening of his knuckles. 
“It’s a public sauna, Jinyoung,” you laughed, patting the space beside you, “I’m allowed to be in here and so are you.”
He nodded at this, loosening his grip as he walked towards you. The noise of his towel hitting the ground drew your eyes down, and then once you realized where you were looking, back up again with a cough. 
“Well at least now we are even,” you said quietly, averting your eyes as he scrambled to wrap his towel around himself again. When he sat down, his face and ears were flushed so red there was no way it could be from the steam. 
“What happened to confident, cocky Jinyoung, hm?” You asked, chuckling as you tried to lighten the mood. Your own thoughts drifting to dirtier places. 
“I- uh,” he paused, covering his face with his hands, “A girl’s never- uh, I haven’t done anything like this,” he stuttered, his ears reddening. 
You grabbed a wrist, pulling his hand down so you could see his face clearly, “Jinyoung,” you paused, glancing down at the tent that had formed in the towel that sat loosely around his waist, “Are you a virgin?”
He let his other hand drop, still not making eye contact with you as he nodded his head. You took a deep breath, your dirty thoughts coming back in full form as you slid your hand across his thigh and grabbed his length. 
“No one has ever done this?” You asked, batting your eyelashes innocently as you pumped him once. His eyes shooting to your hand and then up to your eyes. He shook his head, his hands shooting up to cover his face. 
“Oh no, baby,” you tsked at him dropping your hand from his length, a whine leaving his throat at the lack of contact, “Don’t hide your pretty face, love.”
He dropped his hands then, lightly dragging your hand back to his cock with one finger. Your heart fluttered, he was so cute. You opened the towel, your hand wrapping around his bare cock now, a hiss leaving his pretty lips as you pumped once. You pressed a kiss to his cheek.
“Is this ok with you?” you asked, “Wanna keep going?”
“Y-yes please,” he stuttered, squeezing his eyes shut when your lips wrapped around his length. You went slowly, not wanting to overwhelm him with pleasure. Knowing he’s never been touched, you had a fire in the pit of your belly. You were going to make him feel good, but you had to make sure he didn’t come too soon. 
You twirled your tongue around the head of his cock, holding his other hand in your own as he started to whine. You could tell he was getting close, his hips bucking up slightly as you sucked him. Tears filled his eyes as you pulled your mouth off of him. 
“Shh baby, it’s okay,” you whispered, kissing his cheeks and then his lips, “Take care of me first and then I promise you can come.”
Jinyoung nodded at you then, pouting his lips and demanding another kiss before he slid your towel off and you sat down. He pressed a tentative kiss to your nipple, and at your instruction, took it into his mouth and sucked. Jinyoung’s eyes flew to yours as you let out a low moan, his mouth doing the same thing it had just done on your other nipple. You smiled at him, his inexperienced mouth ready to explore and learn, something that made your heat pulse and your thighs sticky with something other than sweat. 
“Jinyoung,” you moaned, pushing his head from your boobs down to your heat. He sat back a moment, staring intently at your core before pressing a soft kiss to your clit. When he sucked it, you jolted, pleasure filling you up as he started to lick and suck and explore. It was messy, and not at all perfect, but it didn’t matter. When he slid his finger inside you, you bucked your hips, Jinyoung looking up at you with confused eyes before quickly removing his finger. 
“No- baby, it felt good,” you said, breath heaving, almost as if to test if you were lying, he inserted his finger again, a low moan erupting from your throat as he pumped it in and out of you. His long fingers hitting all of the right places. 
“Good boy,” you moaned, getting too into the way Jinyoung was listening to everything you said. When he stopped, you opened your eyes and looked at him. 
“M good?” he asked, eyes watery and nose running. 
“Yes of course, baby, you are doing such a good job,” you praised pulling him up to your face and cupping his cheeks with your hands. He pressed a kiss to your lips, one that you returned happily. 
“Wanna do more,” he whispered, burying his head into your shoulder in an attempt to hide. 
“We can do more baby, don’t be shy,” you smiled, guiding him to a sitting position on the sauna bench. You pressed a gentle kiss to his nose before taking his hardness in your hand and guiding it into your heat. You took a moment to let him adjust, and for you too as well. Jinyoung was a lot bigger than anyone else you had ever slept with. 
“Ready for me to start moving?” You asked, searching his face for any last reservations, seeing none and getting a little yes, you raised your hips, slamming them back to meet his own. Jinyoung absolutely lost it then, hands grabbing at your waist and ass as he whined, moaned and groaned. You kept a consistent speed, feeling his length hit places that hadn’t been hit in a long time. You moaned with him, pressing a hasty kiss to his lips as he dug his nails into your back. 
You felt a tightening coil building up in your core at the sensation. Jinyoung’s moans getting more and more desperate as his mouth started sucking on your breasts again. You felt him twitch inside you, a slight bite on your nipple causing your high to come closer. You slid your hand down your torso, finding your clit and rubbing it as you continued to ride him. Jinyoung, overstimulated and whiny as he tried to get you to stop, so you did. Your core tightening and cumming around his sensitive, softening length. 
He pouted, tears threatening to spill and his nose sniffling as you spasmed around him.
You pressed a soothing kiss on his temple, gently pulling yourself off of him and sitting on his lap. His arms wrapped tightly around you as he begged for more kisses. 
“M gonna miss you,” he whispered, his hand pulling your head onto his broad chest. 
“I’m gonna miss you too,” you whispered back, your own hand finding grip in his hair and massaging his scalp soothingly. 
“Sorry for beating you,” you added, a light chuckle leaving Jinyoung’s mouth.
“We all know it's because the judges saw your boobs.”
You both laughed at that, you landing a gentle slap onto his toned chest in protest. You sat like that for a while, kissing softly and talking to each other. Your heart sunk as Jinyoung bid you goodbye at your hotel room door. Leaving a passionate kiss on your lips.
“I’ll see you at the next World’s,” you said, playing with his hand that was interlocked with your own. 
“Mhm,” Jinyoung agreed easily, kissing your forehead and finally letting you go, “but just know you are getting that pretty little ass kicked.”
You smiled at that, “I guess we will have to wait and see, hm?”

Just my piercings, really. Save for on my ear lobes because the holes on the left are fucked up, yay. I'm going to wind up just slightly stretching the first holes when I can afford a small kit; actual studs or hoops look stupid. Never wanted gauges until the holes got too stretched by the weight of hoops; now something needs to be there. Who in your household do you not have a good relationship with? My sister's (who doesn't even live here...) dog Bentley. I hate him and he doesn't like me. No, that doesn't mean I mistreat a pet. He's just a pain in the goddamn ass. Who in your life are you scared to lose more than anything? My mom. I don't know what would happen to me or how I'd cope at this time. Honestly, would you rather be single or in a relationship? I'm happier in a healthy relationship. Do any of your friends not get along at all? No. I mean, not that I know of. What are your 3 favorite internet sites? I'd be LOST without YouTube, then KM follows up close. #3, uh... Facebook or Tumblr, I suppose. Have you ever gotten anything autographed, if so by who & what was it? No. Well, I do have a little book of Disney World character autographs, but I don't think that really counts. Do you prefer Walmart or Target? We use Wal-mart. Who is your favorite model? Sara is a gd model don't even @ me about it. What have you done that is out of character for you? The Joel thing is the most anti-Brittany thing I've ever done for sure. I can't think of anything more current that stands out, unless it's- NO WAIT, this was quite a few months ago, but I firmly stood against an opinion my psychiatrist made known. He's very talkative and open as hell about his beliefs in current events, and he said something about pit bulls where I was just like... um no sir. I wasn't going to be rude though to HIM of all people so just said I don't base dogs by their breed and shut up. Awkward silence and we moved on. What do you feel strong enough to protest about? LGBT acceptance and rights. I already protest by having given up Chic-fil-a okay I care y'all. What’s the biggest blooper you’ve never lived down? Who knows... What is the best thing you have done just because you were told you can’t? Idk. I'm lucky to not have really been told that... What are you most thankful for? Thinking it all over, probably being born where I am. Boy is America FUCKED UP in some places, but boy would I be in a MUCH worse place if I was born in, say, North Korea, between my mental issues, sexuality, and opinions that can go to either end of the spectrum. How do you feel about thrift shops or flea markets? I love them! You can find the coolest, wackiest shit. What do you like to put gravy on? I hate gravy with a passion. Have you ever gone canoeing/kayaking? No. What one thing in particular makes you feel good about yourself? I genuinely think I'm a nice person that has other's well-being in mind. What is priceless to you? Love, in any form. What is one thing you know about your family history you’re proud of? Uhhh. I guess more than anything, I'm proud of my distant cousin for her unwavering love for and loyalty to her daughter when it came to escaping the Middle East and her dictatorial husband. Read Not Without My Daughter, it's great. Do you keep a budget? I don't have an income. What makes you feel rested and refreshed? Rested, a good night's sleep following being truly exhausted. Refreshed, oh man, gimme a hot, long shower. Who depends on you the most? Nobody. Could you ever be someone’s bodyguard? Hell no. Has one of your biggest fears come true? Yes. I was entirely convinced the world would literally end if Jason left. That night still doesn't feel real. Have you ever let your mom or significant other fight a battle for you? Colleen and Mom once fought after I'd ignored her, so I guess? It wasn't my wish or anything though for her to do it; Mom had shit to say by her own volition, and I wasn't going to tell my mother "no you can't do that." Did you create a checklist for your ideal spouse? No? Have you ever ridden on a subway or train and what did you like about it? Nope. Do you have to experience something to fully understand it? Yes. What embarrasses you instantly? A LOT A LOT A LOT!!!!! It is SO easy to embarrass me, including second-handedly. Do you think you could be a firefighter, why/why not? Hell no, I'm most certainly not in the necessary shape, and quite honestly I'm not that willing to risk my life for random people that could be assholes. What do you think should be censored? Idk. I have mixed feelings on censorship, no matter how stupid it seems. Eh... yeah, idk. Are you related to anyone famous or historical, if so who? Queen Victoria and William Clark. Would you ever donate a kidney to anyone, and who? Depends on who and obviously if we're even compatible. Have you ever fired a gun? No. What is the main quality you think makes a great parent? Sincerely caring for them, probably. Who is a female role model in your life? My mom, in some ways. What childhood dreams have you neglected? Jfc a lot, I don't want to think about it. What do you have trouble seeing clearly in your mind? My future, honestly. It's hard picturing my elderly days. Like I'm not suicidal anymore, I just don't really... realize I'll get there, I guess. I can't picture myself being old and alive. Would you travel to space if possible? No, too long of a trip. Are you an optimistic person? I'm a realist. Do you consider yourself more realistic OR idealistic? ^ Have you ever felt bi-curious? I started out accepting myself as bisexual through thinking myself as bicurious. I quickly realized "bisexual" was more accurate than "bicurious," but it was an easier thing to shift acceptance towards in regards to yourself when you thought you were straight for 21 years. Are you a fan of U.S. President Donald Trump? No sir. I agree with some of his ideas, but I hate him as an asshole person without a trace of manners. Do you know anyone with autism, mood disorders or learning disabilities? Multiple. I'd assume most people know someone who fits at least one criterion there. Are you green-eyed? Not exactly, but they definitely have a green hue to them. They're a gray/green blue. Would you consider UFC fighting and WWE real sports events? I think it's beyond debate that a lot of it is staged, but I mean, I guess to a degree? You still have to fight. It's physical exertion. Have you ever had an immediate relative pass away of cancer? No. Wait. I can't remember if my grandmother had cancer or not... but I don't think so. She was just old. Would you rather work in an office, warehouse or on a retail shop floor? An office, definitely. In my work-hunting as well as actual work experience, office work is probably the only job I could actually do that doesn't require a degree... Do you have a favorite wild animal? Why? You can't know me and not be fully aware meerkats are my favorite animal. Why? Ho boy. I love social species, and meerkats have such strong personalities, and holy shit are those little things brave as fuck. They're so GOSH DARN CUTE!!!! too, and their loyalty to each other is astounding. I love how playful and curious the little guys are, and... just wow okay, I could write an actual essay on how I adore meerkats so goddamn much. Do you have any unusual, uncommon phobias? I'm sure there are other people afraid of whale sharks, but I don't think it's common? And is an actual phobia of pregnancy uncommon? Idk. Do you prefer Android or iPhone? I hate my Android. I've had an iPhone in the past, and it was great. Are you a fan of sweet, sour, salty, or savory snacks? All, depending on my mood. Most often I'd say I like sweet. Do you believe climate change is real? We can't be friends if you don't. Do you believe in evolution OR creationism? Evolution. Do you think people can really predict the future? Nah. Have you been to a lot of shrinks? I hate that word. Just call them therapists. But yeah. How often do you clean your room? Not often enough. I need to dust... Any movies coming out soon that you want to see? I DESPERATELY wanna see the "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark" one. Those books were my CHILDHOOD. What was the last fear you overcame? I don't know about totally overcame, but vocational rehab helped me quite a bit with answering the phone to numbers I didn't recognize. Have you ever hurt yourself trying to crack a body part? No, nothing on me really cracks. Well no, both my big toes do, but no, I haven't hurt myself trying to crack them. What’s the worst part about winter?

Pollen and silver. How many times have you changed a diaper in your life? Like, once. Which country has the most fascinating culture? Oh boy, idk. Who does your favorite song? Idrk what my current favorite song is. I say my all-time fave is "False Flags" by Massive Attack, but it's not something I constantly wanna listen to. I guess you could maybe say it's "Headache" by Motionless In White; I play and repeat that a lot. I've really been digging them lately. When was the last time you wore makeup? Shit dude, idk. Months ago. Do you prefer males or females or both? I'm generally afraid of men, but I mean, I don't "prefer" one over the other if he's a good guy. Where in your town do you go when you wanna chill with a few friends? I don't have any friends I go out with. But there's nowhere to go here anyway. Where’s the best place to get coffee?

Do you play any zombie-killing video games? The Last of Us is fucking dope, but I didn't finish it before my PS3 broke. :'( I like the Resident Evil series too, and some of those games have zombies or similar creatures. And The Walking Dead game tears my heart out every fucking season. What is the dominating genre on your mp3 player/iPod? Varying forms of metal. Do you have a book shelf? No. What website do you spend way too much time on? YouTube is ALWAYS open.

WINDCHIMES!!!!!!!!!! Do you have a fetish? No. Do you have a pet fish? No. Don't get me wrong, they're beautiful and calming, but not worth it for me personally.

Hell yeah, man. When was the last time you went for a walk, just cause? Not since I was at Sara's last. Do you listen to Type O Negative? No. Do you have any fillings or cavities? Yeah.

America Issa Joke
Paring: WOC!Avenger!Reader x Avengers
Word Count: 3734
Warnings: cursing, angry Steve, brief politics, no citing just stuff I've heard from the news, angst? eventual fluff? Awkwardness?? Idk
Summary: The newest member of the avengers is kinda a rebel punk? Punk in the sense of style and ideals. She isn't patriotic at all and has no filter on that big ass mouth of hers. So what happens when she voices her opinions around Captian America? How will the team react to her outburst? Can the reader make amends?
A/n: I know we all have different opinions and political stances so don't send me hate for this story. I just wondered what would happen if Steve met someone who wasn't patriotic and this is the result. Most readers probably won't be fond of this story because of how the reader is and some things she might say but I think you should still read it, even if you aren't a woc or don't agree with anything being said. Just substitute the reader inserts for a character or a name you, Idk. Remember it's a work of fiction! Just because I wrote this doesn't mean I think like this or whatever. I’m expecting hate for this so show me wrong? Anyways I hope y'all enjoy. Feedback is always appreciated!
Tumblr media
You were in the common room that morning when Steve bounded in with a wide smile gracing his lips. Your feet were up on the coffee table and a big bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch was in your hands as you watched some reality tv show Natasha had on. "FRIDAY call the rest of the team to the living room, please." Steve knocked your boots off the table and fixed you with a pointed look after he spoke his request to the A.I. You let out a huff as your combat boots came down with a loud thud and a bit of milk splashed onto your caramel colored arm.
"Nice one Steve," getting up you flipped him the bird and took your bowl to the kitchen sink as the rest of the Avengers started to flood into the common area. Steve ignored your childish antics and clapped his hands together once everyone was in attendance. He bent to pick up the remote and put the tv on mute just as you returned to your seat on the couch. 
"So what is it that you want Cap?" Wanda loosely crosses her arms over her chest and sat next to you. You placed your thick boots back onto the coffee table and looked up at Captain America.
"Yeah Cap 'sup?" He just pushed your boots off the table again and looked around the room, ignoring you completely.
"So as you guys may know the 4th of July is in a couple of days and I was thinking we should throw a patriotic party for the occasion!" Tony looked around the room in pretend shock and placed his fists on his hips as he glanced over at Steve.
"I thought I was the only one that threw parties around here?" The common room erupted with laughter, everyone was laughing except you. It's not that you didn't think the joke was funny, because it was kinda funny, but the situation kind of annoyed you. The 4th of July stood against everything you belived in. The holiday was a totally scam but you didn't speak up. You didn't say anything until Steve went around assigning your teammates roles and errands to prepare for the party.
"...with Bruce. Y/n you'll be in charge of decorating," you snorted and shook your head.
"No bueno Cap. I want no part of this little get together you have planned. Give my job to someone else please." Steve stopped and glanced at you.
"And why is that? Everyone else already has a task. I'm pretty sure they won't have enough time to take care of the decorations on top for whatever else they have to do."
"Well they're just gonna have to find the time because I don't want to be a part of any of this. As a matter of fact I think I might just take a small vacation away from the compound while you guys have your fun." The rest of the room was deadly quiet everyone was so confused. They all knew you could be a little difficult but no has ever seen you this stubborn before and that's saying something. You could be as stubborn as a mule after all.
"Why y/n? What's wrong?" Steve now had concern written across his face. He thought maybe you needed a break or possibly you were homesick. He didn't expect what would come out of your mouth next.
"Why? Why! Because I don't wanna be around to celebrate this shit show of a holiday! There's literally nothing special about it." You scoffed, and glanced at your black painted nails, as if it were obvious from the beginning. Steve frowned and looked over at Natasha in confusion, who in turn just shrugged and also glanced at her nails. Steve looked down at you and placed the clipboard he had picked up on the coffee table, while Vision leaned against the back of the couch to whisper something to Wanda.
"What do you mean y/n? It's the day our nation declared it's independence. How is that not special?"
"You mean a nation built on stolen land and slavery, right? I mean African Americans weren't freed until June 19, 1865 but you don't see that being a national holiday. You don’t see everyone celebrating it. Just some African Americans right?" Tony's eyes widened and Clint took this as his cue to silently leave the room. He was too old to get in the middle of this. Sam smirked from across the other side of the room while Natasha and Wanda just watched on silently.
"Well-" Steve was cut off when you abruptly stood up.
"Well what Steve? Were you gonna say, 'it's not like that anymore.' We may not be stealing land anymore but if I'm not mistaken my black sisters and brothers are being locked up and beat up everyday for the dumbest shit, even though we're-" Your hands came up and made quotation signs in the air -"free. We can't even walk down the street in our own neighborhoods without being antagonized or possibly worse. It's a modern version of slavery if you ask me."
"I-"
"Not only that! But our great nation is locking up children and women in cages who are only looking for a better future. Separating whole families for trying to leave behind a life of misfortune. Aren't we supposed to be the land of opportunity? Oh and don't get me started on our president. Because of that son of a bitch, racists and bigots now think its okay to openly terrioze innocent people again!" Your anger had you seeing red as you stepped closer to Steve, your chests almost touching.
"Y/n-" Tony cleared his throat and stepped closer to the two of you as Wanda and Natasha both stood up. They glanced at one another and nodded in silent agreement. You whipped around in Tony's direction, your dark curls almost whipping Steve in the face. Natasha took that as an opportunity to grab Steve. She had planned to silently lead him out the room but he stood his ground. His jaw was set and he was watching you with an unreadable expression.
"NO TONY! I think he needs to hear this. To actually understand why someone like me wouldn't want to celebrate!" Your hands vibrated and buzzed with energy. Your eyes started to faintly glow. The air was crackling and popping around you with electricity and Tony knew if you didn't calm down a disaster would certainly take place. He always hated when your emotions flared like this. It caused your powers to go haywire. "This country is a joke, most of our holidays are just capitalistic bullshit, this holiday is a joke, we're hypocrites, and everything is going to shit. We're supposed to be the land of the free but are any of us really free? I mean just think about it. America issa joke!" You weren't completely making sense now as your thoughts became a jubbled mess, but Wanda was at your side, and she had softly placed a hand on your shoulder. Her touch grounded you and as she rubbed circles into your back you had started to calm down, your posture softing and eyes returning to normal. You were fine until Steve decided to have a word.
"I understand your frustration but with all due respect y/n I still believe we should celebrate. Yes, America isn't perfect but-" Your temper boiled over again and the glow of your eyes started again and began to pulse. Without thinking your hands rose and a blast of electric energy rippled out of your body and into the air, bursting the lightbulbs and shutting off all power within the compound. The remaining energy pulsed foward like concentrated waves towards him. Of course Steve wasn't suited up so he was shoved backwards, his shield not being there to protect him, his feet dragging across the floor before his body was launched into the wall next to the tv. He fell with a thud and laid in a crumpled mess on the floor. Sam dropped down next to his friend and checked him for signs of injury. Your eyes stopped glowing and closed on their own. You began to fall to your knees and, as Natasha also attended to Steve on the other side of the room, Wanda held onto you as you blacked out.
When you gained consciousness later on you realized you couldn't move. You limbs felt heavy like you were buried in thick syrup. You eyelids felt like sandbags were resting against them and you struggled to open your eyes. Your throat was dry and your lips felt cracked. After a bit of fighting your body your eyes slowly opened. The lights were too bright and you suddenly regretted your decision, your head spun and you felt sick. You were laying in the medical wing of the compound, you could tell that much. You glanced to the side and notice Steve in the bed next to you. A gasp left your mouth and you tried reaching out to him, your limbs still heavy.
You didn't remember much just an argument that happened between the two of you. But every time you tried to remember how it ended your mind went blank and your head began to pound. A dry cough tore from your lips as you kept trying to recall your preveious moments of consciousness even as it pained you. A few minutes later Bruce, Natasha, and Wanda came in. They were talking amongst themselves.
"...emotions are out of control Bruce."
"That isn't fair Natasha she had no idea what she was doing."
"Wanda is right...needs...self-control-"
The conversation soon stopped when Bruce noticed you were awake. He smiled nervously and tilted his head in greeting when he made it to your bedside. "How are you feeling, y/n?"
Your throat closed up and tears welled up in your eyes. "What did I do?" Wanda appeared at your other side. She held your hand in both of hers but refused to answer or even look at you. Out of all the Avenegers, Wanda was the closest to you. She basically took you under her wing when you joined and she was like a big sister to you. So it kinda hurt when she refused to meet your gaze. Did you really mess up that bad? Natasha was tired of the awkward silence so she cleared her throat and began to answer your question since the other two wouldn't.
"Well what's the last thing you remember?"
"I remember Wanda rubbing my back. It calmed me down."
"Well she did but then Steve said something and you went psycho. Blew out all the power and chucked Steve against a wall." You heard yourself gasp and glanced over at Steve again. He was hurt and it was all your fault.
Bruce cleared his throat, "Vision thought you were gonna kill us all. Anyway, the medicine Dr. Cho gave you should be wearing off soon so you'll be able to get up and move."
Your head turned and you face Bruce with a tearful gaze, "is he okay?" Your voice was small and hoarse.
Dr. Banner gave you a sympathetic look and placed a hand on your shoulder, "He's a little bruised up be he should be fine." A breath, you hadn't realized you had been holding, left your lips and you nodded before glancing back at Steve's unconscious form. "When Helen releases you come down to the lab so I can run some tests." He squeezed your shoulder a bit and left the room with Natasha at his side.
The room was unpleasantly silent while Wanda sat with you, drawing patterns against the skin of your hand. "Um..." You watched her with your brow furrowed. "Are you mad at me?" She shook her head and continued tracing patterns. "Why won't you talk to me then. You haven't even looked at me since you came in."
"I'm slightly mad but I know I shouldn't be. You haven't had your powers long after all but I'm also scared y/n."
"I'm so sorry, I didn't-"
"I know I know you didn't but-" she finally looked at you and as you took in the sight of her puffy red eyes you realized she had been crying "-Vision wasn't as sure as me. He's not sure if you should be here anymore." You body stiffened, each muscle tensing up with worry, as your eyes teared up again. "I don't agree with him and he's so angry that he stormed out."
After some reassuring, you got Wanda to calm down as much as you could and she left the medical wing, but the sick feeling in your stomach didn't leave with her. She and Vision got in an argument because of you, Vision left because of you, and not only that but Steve was hurt, and it was all because of you. You laid still for a few minutes before Helen came and checked up on you. When she saw that you were okay she let you leave. Steve still hadn't woken up so you couldn't apologize and you didn't feel like talking to anyone else so you went straight to your room. You knew you were supposed to go to the lab and meet Bruce but your muscles ached and you were drained. You flopped down on your bed and tried not to think of everything that happened in the last 24 hours, somewhere along the line you fell asleep.
When you woke up it was hot and sticky, your curls stuck to your forehead and neck. Your clothes felt tight and uncomfortable and your throat was dry. You sat up and rubbed your eyes just as FRIDAY spoke up, "Good afternoon y/n, Mr. Stark and Dr. Banner request your presence in the lap immediately." You groaned and fell back into the mattress.
"Could you tell them I'm gonna get clean up first?"
"Of course Ms. Y/l/n"
"Thanks FRIDAY."
You went straight to the lab after your shower where Bruce conducted some tests and Tony had a stern talk with you. He basically wanted you to get a control on your mood swings. With that being said he informed you he'd be hiring a yoga instructor to work with you after your training. You argued with him a bit until he threatened to put you on medication, you figured yoga and meditation was better than that. After that was resolved you walked down the halls of the compound. You legs ended up taking you to the common room. You hadn't been here since your argument with Steve. The only person present was Wanda. She was curled up on the couch, her legs tucked underneath her, a light blanket covering her lap. In her hands she held a teacup while a plate full of cookies balanced precariously on her knees. The tv was on playing some type of romcon with Zac Efron in it.
You sat down next to her and stole a cookie off her plate, "Hey Wanda."
"Hello y/n?"
"Did Vision ever come back?" You munched on your cookie. They were Iced Oatmeal cookies so they weren't all that soft but you liked em. Wanda nodded and took a long sip of her tea.
"Have you guys talked?"
"No, he slept in his old room." She rebalanced the plate so it wouldn't fall. You frowned as you finished off your cookies. That wouldn't do at all. You didn't like that they wouldn't talk all behind something you did. It was stupid. Especially when everyone knew how much they love each other. Their love was something young girls everywhere dreamed of, it was literally #goals. You stood up from the couch and brushed off your lap. Snatching the plate and tea cup from Wanda you set them on the coffee table and held your hand out to her.
"Come on, get up."
"Why?"
"I'm gonna fix what I broke." Wanda had a nervous look on her face but you both knew that you were stubborn as a mule so with a shaky breath she took you hand and let you pull her up. You pulled her along as you marched with determination to Vision's room. Your head was held high and your shoulders were squared as you raked your knuckles against his door. For awhile you stood there, listening for movement, and as the seconds ticked by you started to feel unsure of yourself. Wanda looked at you, her bottom lip between her teeth, and pulled your away from the door. Just was you guys were about to leave Vision phased through the wall nearby, effectively scaring the shit out of you. You screamed a bit and cursed under your breath as you clutched at your chest.
"Fuck hell, use the door next time." Vision just ignored you. He was looking at Wanda.
"Is there something you need?"
You rolled your eyes and stepped directly into his lime of sight, "as a matter of fact yes I need something," you hands came to rest at your hips. He finally looked at you, like really looked at you, and tilted his head as if to encourage you to speak.
"Alrighty then-" you cleared your throat and dug the toe of your platinum creepers into the ground "-I just wanted to say that I know what you don't want me here. I know what happened between me and Cap was insane and irresponsible." You glanced up to make sure he was following along. He gave you his undivided attention and with a shake of your head you looked away and continued. "I didn't mean to get out of control of course but that's not an valid excuse. I already agreed to start managing my emotions and Tony is taking care of it so you have nothing to worry about. But the real reason why I came to bug you was to ask you to stop acting this way with Wanda." You looked up again and his face didn't change. You couldn't read him at all. "I know you guys don't agree but it's to be expected. She's my best friend and you're the man she loves. You shouldn't let her choose between the two of us. You're hurting her and I don't wanna watch her in pain. You guys have been through way too much together to let someone as insignificant get in the way of that. Sorry for upsetting you..." You nodded your head to conclude your rambling and looked up at Vision from beneath your lashes.
His gaze shifted to Wanda and back to you. He took a deep breath, "I accept your apology y/n. I may have overreacted. I now know you wouldn't purposely put us in danger and I know how much you mean to Wanda. I apologize as well." He smiled at the end and pulled you into a small hug. After he let you go he pulled Wanda into his arms and kiss the top of her head. You took that as your signal to leave, smiling the whole time.
You were almost back to the living room when you bumped into a hard chest. A gush of air rushed out of your lungs as your ass came in contact with the floor. You groaned and began scrambling to your feet as a hand came down and pulled you up by your shoulders. "Um sorry about that." You looked up and were met with an ocean of blue. Steve Rogers in the flesh, walking and talking, as if you hadn't just knocked him into next week.
"Steve you're up!" You pushed away the mop of curls that had fallen into your eyes when you fell.
"Yeah, just got out awhile ago. I'm still kinda sore," he chuckled awkwardly as he rolled his shoulder a bit.
"Oh"
"I was actually looking for you."
"Well...uh yah found me." You mentally face palmed yourself. This wasn't going how you planned in your head at all. The hall was silent and the tension was thick. You palms grew sweaty and you nervously tugged at the chains hanging from the holes in your leather belt. You took a deep breath and swallowed your nerves.
"I'm so sorry Stev-"
"I'm sorry I-"
A lopsided grin spread across his face as you both realized you spoke at the same time. You tugged on the chains harder, swaying forward on the balls of your feet as you tugged. Steve waited for you to continue as you looked down at your shoes. He cleared his throat, "Um okay then. I just wanted to let you know I'm sorry. I thought about what you said and you're right. I've decided to call off the party." Your head snapped up and your eyes widened.
"No! That's really uneccessary. I was actually going to apologize to you too. It was selfish of me to kill everyone's vibe like that. If you all want to celebrate then go ahead." You nodded furiously and shoved your hands into the front pockets of your crust pants. "And I'll even-" you let out a resigned sigh "-take care of the decorations like you wanted me too."
"Really y/n?" His voice was full of joy.
"Yeah, yeah I will," you looked up and gave Steve a small smile. He pulled you into his arms and hugged you tight, crushing your arms against your side and making it slightly hard to breathe. "Alright alright Get the fuck off Rogers! You're gonna squeeze me to death!" You pretended to be irritated but Steve could tell by the tone of your voice that you were just as happy as he was.

It’s interesting because last night I realized that I actually don’t have a favorite ice dance team that is currently competing. I had been rooting for H/D this season, but when they got 4th place last night at 4cc, I just thought it was kind of funny (if not confusing af initially). lol idk. I guess I was getting bored of seeing them win all season. And I actually enjoyed Weapo’s performance yesterday more than H/D.
And then H/D were in the K&C being cocky af, and it was taking a little while for the scores and Zach was like “come on, just give us all the +5s” or some dumb shit like that. Then their reactions to the scores, and then Patch pausing for like 10 seconds and then saying “What?” And then Madi looked up and was like “THE STATIONARY LIFT BASE?” And the camera goes to the screen that shows the scores, but the mics were still on so you hear Madi say “wait a second!” Basically they’re sore losers. 🤷🏻‍♀️
But anyway I was still really confused because I’d been paying attention to the scores during the performance and my math told me than the sum of their base values was higher that C/B’s and I didn’t notice any obvious mistakes, and all of their GOE’s were positive. but then someone showed me the protocols and their stationary lift got dropped from a BV of 5.4 to 1 because it traveled too much to be a stationary lift but didn’t have enough rotations to be a spin. And then their spin was dropped from a level 4 to a level 2. Idk the reason for that, tho. But anyway, i enjoyed C/B, I really love W/P’s FD, and G/P were pretty good, but I think in my own opinion I enjoyed H/B more.
But really in competition this year for me it looks like I don’t necessarily have a favorite team. I love H/D’s skating style, but I thought their score was fair if they made some screw-ups that weren’t obvious to the audience (the arena booing the scores was hilarious).
I’ve been watching the competitions online with my NBC Gold membership, so the only events that had commentary for me was Skate America and US Nationals. So I’m curious what the commentators were saying about H/D’s FD and scores at 4cc yesterday.

Fresh start - Mike Wheeler x reader - part 1
Tumblr media
Masterlist
Request by @multi-parker : MIKE WHEELER X READER PLEASE! I’m living for him right now and I only have like a few like ideas and all of them suck so if you have one great and if not like maybe someone with being Dustin’s Sister or you wanna Join the AV club or ummm maybe you move in next door and just so awkward Wheeler? Idk but hey, if you can figure out something to write with this mess thank you!
I was thinking about making this into a series actually!
Thank you for the request! I wanted to write this one before the others since i want to get my ST writing started. So I kinda combined the two requests into one so I hope this is good enough<3
I try to make it as gender neutral as possible and the few things indicating the gender of the character (such as pronouns) are easily replaceable. I try not to get a very specific description of the reader so that all genders can read this and relate haha

Ah, the feeling of being the new kid.
Nothing new to you though. You’ve moved so many times that you had lost count by now. It felt like by now you had seen at least half of America and lived in at least a quarter of its states, not ideal but what can you do? At first it was really hard moving away and starting fresh time after time but by now you got used to it because it had gotten to the point of that you didn’t have the time to make real friends.
This time around your parents had promised that ‘this will be the last stop’ and it would be a blatant lie if you said that this was the first time that they told you that. Every damn time they decided that the current stay wasn’t good enough they broke that promise. You still wished for it to come true and remained hopeful each and every time they told you that.
This time the 'last stop’ was Hawkins, Indiana. According to your parents it was a 'cute small town with some rough history but It feels just right for us’ but according to your big sister it was 'just another picturesque shithole’ after she said that your parents went on to lecture her about how it’s not okay to swear and how it’s not okay to not give it even a small chance. Every time you packed up and moved to a new place this was how the car ride went, your parents and your sister arguing and you sitting quietly in your seat not being bothered enough to join the dispute.
At some point during your trip you had fallen asleep with head pressed against the cold window. But now your mom had begun poking at you a little waking you up.
“Honey, we’re here.” she said with a smile and turned around to walk over to your house.
You shifted in an attempt to shrug that almost drunken state of sleep you were in. Running your hands through your hair you sat up straight while hearing (what in your opinion sounded like) every bone in your body cracking. You unblocked your seat belt and unlocked the car door then swung your legs out of the car and onto the porch. With a loud thud you pushed the door closed and walked up to your new front door.
The sun was still rising since your family decided to travel early in the morning when the November darkness was still surrounding you but when you arrived at about 8 am the warm orange and pink glow of a sunrise shone down onto the ground.
You carefully opened the front door and looked around to see a staircase in front of you. It grabbed your interest immediately so you didn’t really notice the door leading down into the basement or the other pathways leading into the kitchen where your parents were or the soon to be living room where your sister was. You walked over to the set of stairs slowly. While slowly walking up the stairs you let your hand travel up the banister and as you did all the dust that had layered there disappeared as your fingers traced small patterns onto the dark wood.
Directly to the left of the first door in front of the set of stairs was another door. You took the last step and walked towards it. It slowly creaked it open after your hand curled around the doorknob to open it.
While walking into the room you saw all the small particles of dust floating through the air as the orange and yellow light flooded through the windows of what you now had decided was your room. Looking through the window you spotted something moving in the house opposite yours. Step by step you tip toed to the small window and looked across the street and into the other house. Suddenly whatever that was moving in there stopped in front of the window, it was a boy.
The two of you made eye contact and you shyly waved at him while a small smile and blush crept upon your face and he mirrored your actions. He was cute, definitely, around your age with dark brown hair.
He swiftly turned around and you spotted an older girl behind him, probably his sister, stomping into the room angrily while yelling something at him.
What a hell of a start to your new move.
[time skip because my writing skills are great (note the sarcasm)]
Today was the first day of school for your part. Your dad had decided that it was not a good idea to let you bike to school on your first day so he gave you a ride in his car. The clash was blasting through the car speakers and you were bolting out the lyrics to should I stay or should I go as your dad just sat there watching his daughter dance and swing her hair around in what looked like a life or death lip sync battle.
The two of you soon pulled up in front of your 4th or 5th school of only this year. You waved at your dad and you heard something about making new friends and having fun. After 2-3 minutes of walking around you found the office that was supposed to have your schedule and got it. Another 3 minutes of navigating later you finally found your class, this school was built like a damn maze.
Swing the door open you see that the teacher was in the middle of a sentence. So you stood there, in the doorway, back pack slung over one shoulder with everyone’s eyes on you. Said teacher motioned for you to come over to his desk and you obeyed, he looked very kind, very laid back.
“So everyone, please welcome our new student, Y/N Y/L/N!” He said excitedly and he was the only one in that classroom trying to keep the energy up. One of the kids in front of you yawned, another one chewed on their gum lazily while looking at you but there was one boy who kept his eyes on you and strictly on you. “You can take a seat next to Mike over there” he said pointing at the empty seat.
You shifted uncomfortably before walking over to where he was pointing and looked over to the boy in the seat next to yours. The two of you made eye contact and you sat down next to him.
“Hey” you whispered while the teacher continued on with his lesson.
“H-Hey” Mike answered shyly, he truly thought you were the most beautiful thing.
The two of you kept exchanging whispers throughout the entire lesson and without you noticing the two boys in front of you looked at each other and looked back at you and Mike. There was hushed laughter and small and tiny giggles, you and Mike got along really well.
All of a sudden the high pitched bell rang and all the students cluttered at the door in an attempt to be the first one to get into the hallway. Mike somehow lost Y/N i the crowd and found his friends instead, all except for Will that is.
“Hey, Mike” Dustin said while they zigzagged between all the students in the hallway.
“Yeah?” Mike looked over to his left and past Lucas.
“Do you know her or something? You two were talking the ENTIRE lesson” the curly haired boy sounded really annoyed and Lucas hummed in agreement.
“Well, kind of…sort of…maybe?” he had a pretty hard time explaining “You know how the Nelsons moved out recently? Well yesterday before I was off to see you two I was sneaking into Nancy’s room 'cause she took my radio and I looked across the street into the house opposite ours and there she was, in the window opposite Nancy’s” as Mike finished his story with a faint hint of pink on his cheeks both Lucas and Dustin looked at each other with smug grins plastered onto their faces.
They could tell that he already liked her.
The next class of the day wasn’t really a class; this week the kids were allowed to spend second period on their club of choice. And of course the trio were going to spend it in the AV room playing around with the new radio that they had gotten.
The three were all set up in the small room that was dedicated to the only kids in the school who actually had an AV as an interest. After just a few minutes of talking and trying figuring out how the radio in front of them worked they were interrupted by a knock on the door. It opened in one swift movement and in the entrance stood Y/N and Mr. Clark.
“So as I asume you know by now this is our new student Y/N” he said while grabbing your shoulders lightly and guiding you into the room as you nervously gazed at Mike “She will be joining the AV media club! And don’t worry she won’t mess up your radio she has done this before. So all of you boys play nicely now” he finished with a smile and walked out the door and closed it lightly.
Y/N shifted uncomfortably onto her other foot as Lucas, Dustin and Mike all looked at her. Dustin was the first to break the silence with a grin on his face.
“Show us what you got new girl”

Do any of you want a part two??? Let me know<3

Listening to: Whatever’s playing in the DJ booth, which is Reach You - Sako Tomohisa
Want kids?: At some point yeah, I’m also pretty sure I’m gonna adopt at least 1 kid whether I have my own or not
Get married?: Maybe. That’s a problem for future me, but if I happen to meet someone(s) good for me, then sure
Career: After bouncing around a bit, I think I’ve settled into chemistry for forensics w/ specialization in pharmacology and toxicology. It still doesn’t feel quite right to me, but it’s the best I’ve got
Which is better?:
Lips or eyes?: Eyes, since I think eye contact can tell you a lot about a person
Hugs or kisses?: Hugs, but I’m big on personal space and barely accept hugs from even my closest friends, plus there’s some weird belief that I don’t like hugs?? and idk where that came from
Shorter or taller: I oddly like being the shortest person in a group?? So I prefer if people are taller than me
Troublemaker or hesitant: Troublemaker, I really can’t stand it when people are super hesitant or can’t make decisions. I’m rly tired of having to make decisions all the time
Romantic or spontaneous: Both, but I think I lean a little more towards spontaneity since I’m a person who likes careful planning. Romance is whatever for me, so I’d rather have someone push me to be a little more spontaneous
Sensitive or loud: A balance of both would be preferable, but if I had to pick, then loud. I’m a lot more introverted than I was before and prefer if people are a little more extroverted than I am but have a level of chill where silences are comfortable
Hookup or relationship?: Relationship. I don’t really do hookups. I know I could, and I’ve been asked to before, but I’m not really big on sex
Have you ever:
Kissed a stranger: Technically AX boy counts b/c I met him 2 days before we made out lmao
Drank hard liquor: Yeah, but I’m not super big on drinking and just enjoy a smirnoff ice/mike’s hard every so often
Lost contacts/glasses: Nope, surprisingly I haven’t lost my glasses yet
Sex on first date: Likely never, they’d have to be someone who I mesh with super well for that to happen
Broken someone’s heart: A few yeah. Apparently I broke my friend’s roommate so bad that every time he’d drink he’d just talk about how I was the one who got away
Been arrested: Not yet
Turned someone down: /sweats Yeah, a lot. I don’t mean this in a bragging way, because I always feel ridiculously bad about it, but my friends joke about me being “unattainable” and a heart-breaker all the time _(:3」∠)_
Fallen for a friend: I’ve only ever fallen for close friends oops
Do you believe:
In yourself?: Not at all
Love at first sight?: I think it’s out there, just not for me
