#And as much as Knuckles likes his solitude; it shows he is also friendly
Text
I will say it once and I will say it again, I love issue #87-90 of Sonic Universe for the sheer fact that we get so much FOOD. Like, we get some Knuckles and Amy goodness...we get Knuckles and Shadow moments of bonding...we get to see Knuckles and Amy interact and play off Team Dark so well, especially Knuckles...the fact he seems to be so chill with Omega...Rouge being concerned about Knuckles's solitude and 'freedom' as well as her and Amy interacting...
There's a reason I have it be canon here UwU
#I'm Just Warming Up {OOC}#Mun Menu {Post}#I think all the characters were good in that issue/issues#We got to see Shadow and Knuckles relate to one another and bond (plus their fight prior was fun)#Got to see Amy and Knuckles support and care for one another#I mean she literally gives him a peep talk when he's feeling down#Rouge actually caring about them all was sweet to see...course she plays it off but it shows she cares deeply#I love it so much#And as much as Knuckles likes his solitude; it shows he is also friendly#So long as you ain't threatening his island or the ME#He's not a mean guy and he can pretty much vibe with others real well#Which is why I joke he is pretty much everyone's type XD

childhood friends/first meeting (as children)
Luigi's harem... surprise
Before disappearing, do writers also do hand exercises like digital artists?
Good bye
I don't do exercises other than cracking my knuckles every so often. Anyways!
Daisy: if these two met as children, Daisy would be the first to initiate conversation and try to get Luigi to come out of his shell and play. Luigi would be extremely shy but with a bit of encouragement he'd come out and be friends with Daisy. These two would be great friends and spend a lot of time together, drawing, playing sports, etc. A strong friendship that will come to last for years.
Peasley: if these two met at a young age, I feel like Luigi would end up being more confident in himself thanked to Peasley's encouragement and support, especially if Mario followed suit to it. It wouldn't be a drastic change but a noticeable change. Luigi would also be a good support system to Peasley when his royal duties start to become a bit too much or when he starts doubting himself, especially in their teenage years when they can feel the most emotional.
Dreambert: if they met young then it would be before Antasma came into the picture. These two would find solitude in each others calm demeanors and friendly attitudes. If Dreambert offered to show Luigi the dream world or enter Luigi's dreams for a surreal adventure, they might have ended up tapping into Luigi's dream powers a lot sooner and they would have helped train him to use them better. Eldream would be able to help with this too since Snoozemore wouldn't have been in the picture either and Eldream is a trusted friend of the royal Pi'illo family with a lot of old knowledge about dreams.
Bowser: I mean, canonically these two did meet when they were young, Luigi being a newborn but the meeting wasn't all that great. It even got worse when baby Mario and Yoshi showed up. Plus, baby Bowser is spoiled rotten by Kamek and was shaped into the beast the Mushroom Kingdom now fears so I don't think there would have been a chance of a friendship with them.
King Boo: King Boo was probably around way before the bros were born so he'd still be an adult when Luigi is a child, but he'd still have his normal red gem instead of the purple one on his crown so he wouldn't be all that insane. Even if we make a version where King Boo is still a normal, common boo, his main goal when meeting Luigi would be to scare him to tears, especially when Luigi is an easy target to be frightened. However, when the bros become the heroes of the MK and King Boo kidnaps Mario, he might remember them, faintly since then he'd only see them as nameless victims to scare. He might remember Luigi a bit more from being a favourite so he'd be surprised at how he can push forward despite how scared he still is. Pretty sure the boos would have given him early trauma from that so it'd be a lot harder on Luigi.
Antasma: for Antasma, I'll stick to Luigi being Dreambert's friend and they both found Antasma as a bat and took him in. He'd get attached to both children due to their care and kindness towards him. You didn't hear this from me but he is closer with Luigi since he sneaks him extra sweets and has the best dreams to munch on. When he turned evil and took the Dark Stone he tried to get Luigi to join him but he obviously refused and it made Antasma have a festering hatred of betrayal much like with Dreambert. Luigi was forced by Dreambert to escape before Antasma was imprisoned since Dreambert didn't want him to be targeted and so he wasn't aware of the petrification of the Pi'illos, only that Antasma didn't intent to go down alone.
Dimentio: We can't even confirm his past, how can we confirm he was ever a child? Technically, my new AU fits with this scenario but might as well come up with another. Unless Dimentio was aware Luigi would be the Man in Green of the Prophecy, I doubt he would even care. If he did know, however, he may be the reason Luigi is still alive after everything he's been through before the events of SPM happened. He would monitor Luigi whenever the Count didn't have need of him for a mission or task and he would keep an eye on how he faired as a child, which he could then use to manipulate him with in the future.

Instances where five shoves down his emotions? Please?
Ok. *Cracks knuckles.*
Let’s see.
I’m not sure if you mean like thematically or like in a specific scene, but since I feel like Five is just constantly shoving down his emotions, I’m gonna take it scene by scene! (Mostly)
1x02:
This is the first episode where we really start to see Five’s emotions and how he feels. We see him first shove down his emotions towards the end of the scene with Vanya. He had just told her that he trusted her, he told her what happened, and about the apocalypse and showed a little bit of vulnerability. But instead of the help and understanding he’s trying to reach out for, he’s met with disbelief and doubt and a question about his sanity.
We see him get frustrated and angry (and perhaps a tad bit hurt), he goes for the door to storm out but stops when Vanya calls after him. After that, he puts the eye in his pocket and mostly just nods alone quietly. Even the next day when he talks to her again he’s calm and friendly but somewhat emotionless as he tells her she’s probably right and he’s crazy (even though that’s not the truth and he’s still very much in need of help).
I think we kinda see him do it again at the end of the episode right after the department store fight. He’s very obviously hurt and upset, but in the next scene with Luther and Allison he’s back to trying to be neutral and standoffish even though he’s definitely still not okay.
1x03:
Five has a traumatic flashback/hallucination and is very visibly upset. Luther interrupts it when he knocks on the window and Five immediately puts the eye away and tries to *go back to normal*
1x05:
I don’t know how much Five really shoves down in this episode, but he is very open with Luther about how he feels. He tells Luther his whole story, he looks upset when he talks about finding them all dead. He even shows a bit of vulnerability when he holds Delores after Luther threatens to drop her out the window. He looks upset again when they’re in the car and Five says “solitude can do funny things to the mind.” If Five shoves down emotions, it’s very small and brief and doesn’t seem to really stop him from at least somewhat conveying how he feels.
1x06:
This entire episode is pretty much just Five hiding how he really feels about the Commission. He pretends to be okay with them for the sake of stopping the apocalypse, but he doesn’t seem very happy and we see him finally voice that in the end.
1x07:
Idk is pain is technically an emotion? Because oh boy oh boy does Five shove down a lot of that in this episode. He spends most of it hiding his shrapnel would and how bad he truly feels/is. There are several instances where he visibly clamps down on showing any signs of pain and only reveals it when he can no longer stand.
I can’t really think of a ton of super obvious instances of Five hiding emotion after this. He does show emotions but doesn’t make too much of an attempt to hind them. He appears frustrated, upset, or angry at various moments. He’s quite open and vulnerable when he says goodbye to Delores.
1x10:
The closest we really see to him doing that is in the very end scene as the apocalypse happens. He appears to be panicking in the background but forces himself to be calm and come up with a plan
I can’t think of many instances in S2 off the top of my head, but I know we see Five show a lot more emotions so there are probably several scenes where he does this. I also know he gets brushed off a lot in S2 so, again there are probably more scenes. He might do it in the “I wanna forget it but I can’t” scene but I don’t 100% remember.

just to continue off of that yukhei head canon, jungwoo as a florist or part of the school gardening club? thank you :) (also love u so much this is the shy anon who thinks ur ethereal but can not show her love as well as she wants to❤️🌹)
(jungwoo requester) also i’m sorry i never specified what i wanted it as but tbh anything you’d like to do because you’re amazing and i have full trust no matter what you do:)❤️
a/n: here you go!! my dumb self accidentally lost the first half of this yesterday so i tried to recreate the magic as much as possible. and ok!!! i was super excited to get going on this when i got this message!! i love you too omg and dw!! i’ll make these headcanons to keep up with the bad boy!yukhei ones. I hope you enjoy~ the bad boy!yukhei headcanons in question are here. also, i’ll stop blabbering soon, but i recommend listening to this song when you read this :)
jungwoo got into gardening because of his parents influencing him from a young age
jungwoo’s parents were v v much crazy about nature and grew up in the countryside, so when they moved closer to the city, they severely missed having all that open space and being surrounded by green
no matter where jungwoo’s family lived, they always had a garden and they always employed jungwoo’s help
whether he was carrying tiny potfuls of dirt across the yard or whether he was watering the plants, he was always doing something with his parents out there
as he got older, he started doing more heavy labor
in fact, by the time he was thirteen, he could tell a farmer a thing or two about a thing or two ok ok
also by thirteen, his parents gave jungwoo a small section of the backyard where he could start his own garden
while he loved to plant flowers, he also liked to plant veggies and herbs and the like
he has this cute little aloe vera plant that has gotten quite big recently (!)
he makes a lot of homemade remedies and things
now, being best friends with bad boy!yukhei, he also knows a variety of plants that can be used to treat cuts, burn, bruises, you name it
sometimes yukhei just shows up at jungwoo’s door and his parents are like “jungwoo!! he got hurt again!!”
and jungwoo just quietly leads yukhei into the bathroom, sits him down on the toilet and has a lil upset expression on his face as he treats yukhei’s scraped knuckles with salves that he made himself for things,,, just like this,,, cause goddamn it wong yukhei u are a mess
it doesn’t happen as often seeing as yukhei is like. Large and scares most contenders off pretty easily with his words and those thick eyebrows but sometimes a dude gets a lil brave every now and then and yukhei has to show ‘em a thing or two
yukhei always likes to be cute tho, just to convince jungwoo not 2 be mad
yukhei: u kno,,, jungwoo, ur my best friend :)
jungwoo: unfortunately
yukhei: whenever u help me out like this i just think abt how like,, u and me? we’re an iconic duo u kno???
jungwoo: what
yukhei: ur like the village mage and i’m the humble but emotionally motivated warrior protagonist u kno
jungwoo: yukhei i don’t know what you’re trying to SAY
yukhei is kinda mad that jungwoo doesn’t appreciate his analogies but i mean,,, it’s Fine that’s just the problem with being best friends with the village mage and not sidekick #1
even tho jungwoo acts absolutely exasperated with yukhei and yukhei loves to tease the eldest, they’re both fiercely protective of each other
like yeh yukhei will avoid abt 95% of the fights that ppl try to start with him bc all he has to do is buck up and ppl run but like?? one time a fool came up to him and started talking shit about jungwoo’s gentle persona and long story short yukhei was almost expelled and that aforementioned fool switched schools the following week
Nobody Disrespects Jungwoo In Yukhei’s House
and while jungwoo is definitely not the fighting type (he much prefers using his words to get his points across), he also has done a lot of research and has access to several recipes for poison so like don’t fuck with yukhei is what i’m trying to say
don’t ask why he has those just don’t fuck with yukhei and u won’t have to worry about it
anywho :)
it wasn’t until jungwoo started his first year at school that he realized that he’d always,, gardened by himself
and it wasn’t that he didn’t enjoy his solitude!! it was just that he’d never really realized that he wanted to share his hobby with anyone until he got to high school
even tho yukhei was his best friend, they clearly didn’t share the same hobbies as yukhei would rather rot inside all day than go outside and “let the sun cook me from the inside out while doing physical labor”
and even though his parents gardened, they didn’t do it as often anymore
so!!! lil jungwoo just decides to pitch his idea to the school about starting a gardening club
at first, there’s only jungwoo so the school isn’t totally sure they should even bother but then jungwoo brings along a few friends who are interested in joining and they let it be
and the club absolutely flourishes over the next four years
it rapidly collects members of all types and backgrounds, people who lived in rural areas and people who had been at their closest to plants in a flower shop
jungwoo is just so bright and friendly and sweet that a lot of ppl join when he asks despite not knowing a thing about gardening
and by the time jungwoo is about to graduate, he’s got such a following and ppl who are just as passionate as him who want to take over when he heads off to college (yukhei told him he better take a gap year so they could go into college as freshmen together but that choice was still pending oops)
the school had seen how passionate they all were so early on and decided to devote a part of the land at the school to the club to do with as they wished, so jungwoo had the great idea of creating a mini garden paradise
they all pitch in to decorate the garden so it has a beautiful stone walkway with trees that line it and flowers planted all around. benches are placed every couple of feet and it is the Perfect place for students to come whenever they feel particularly stressed during the end of the school year and need somewhere that’s just not hectic
the cool thing about this lil garden is that on holidays, they dress it up!!
so for the christmas eve, they string lights through the trees and hang ornaments on them while the school choir sings carols the whole night
and on valentine’s day, they also string lights through the trees but add little foam red and pink hearts to hang from the branches and on each heart, you can buy one and write a name of someone you love
it can be your family members, your best friend, a crush, or your significant other
it can even be ur cat!!!
(jeno has been doing this for the last three years and we’re honestly all concerned he loves nothing else)
the cool thing about these hearts is that you can either write the name of who you love anonymously and hang it on the tree (and whose ever name you wrote gets to take the heart home with them if they’d like) OR you can sign it ;)))
the tradition is, if you sign the heart and that person finds it and brings it to you, that means they accept your confession
despite jungwoo being the key organizer of this v-day event, he’s never participated
however
that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been confessed to more than a dozen times
when his mom saw how many he’d brought home with him since sophomore year she asked him if she could make a collage and hang it up in his room but he was like mom!!! no!!!! that’s lame
so he keeps them all in a shoe box under his bed
and when he feels a little down or ignored, he’ll pull the box out and remember that some people out there like him a lot
there were all unsigned, but sometimes jungwoo would wish that one of them would be signed at least
part of him would feel himself grow expectant every time someone came to his table to get a heart and he’d wonder “is that one of them?” “will they do it again this year?” “is this the year they sign it?”
the other members would often joke with him abt how his eyes would light up when someone would buy one and would always fidget a lil as he thought about all the possibilities
you had joined jungwoo’s gardening club your second year when your counselors started encouraging you to join clubs to meet people
honestly, there were a lot of strange clubs around
you had almost joined the gaming club but then you found out about this school gardening club, and something abt it just,, called to u
your first time you went, you found a piece of paper crudely taped to the door of the classroom they were supposed to meet up in and all it said was “outside”
so, you went outside
and sure enough, in the back of the school in the large expanse of land back there, you found a bunch of students near this garden all crouched down and doing… Something
you made your way over, a little confused, and tapped the shoulder of the person nearest you
they have a huge ass sun hat on so when they turn around, you weren’t really expecting such a,, good looking guy,,, oh. hm
jungwoo narrows his eyes at you, but it’s only bc he has to look up and the sun is getting into his eyes “hello! can i help you?” he asks cheerily, pushing himself up from the ground and clapping the dirt off his gloves
he’s much taller than you expected, so you step back a little and try to remember what u had even came all this way to do in the first place lol
“ah! uh… this is the gardening club, right?”
jungwoo was smiling before, but now he grins so wide that his front two teeth resemble bunny teeth
cuteeeeee
“it sure is~ i’m jungwoo, the head of the club. did you want to join? i promise, you’ll have a lot of fun” he promises this to you and you absentmindedly think that even if he tried to sell you rat poison under the premise it was candy, you would believe him
but this club is rlly candy in this case bc once you’ve told him your name and joined, you find that it’s so much more fun than you had expected
you had really just wanted to be able to tell your counselors you were into something but now,, now u were really passionate about this
something about how jungwoo ran the club made you so interested in gardening
he taught you the basics from the ground up, but it wasn’t super hard???
he was always very simple and forward with what you needed to do, so you had v lil chance of messing up
he was also v friendly and was constantly asking questions abt your life
he always sounded so interested!!! even in the lil things
like what was your last class of the day? what flower appealed to you the most?
he helped you plant your first “honorary” flower as a member of the club
on the walkway, each member gets a flower to take care of up until graduation, after which then the other members will keep it alive to remember them and their contributions to the club
jungwoo just has a lot of sappy cute traditions ok
he tells you that you can plant anything, so you choose the flower you like most and he tells you you can plant it right next to his
even tho… there’s tons of space…. jungwoo…… it doesn’t have to be…. next to yours
this also means that when you all go out to check on the garden, you have to stand right next to him to check on your flower
your knees touch his as you water them together, make sure they’re getting enough light, etc
he always loves to talk to you about the flowers
honestly sometimes he just chatters and chatters and you’ve noticed over time that it’s a nervous habit of his
it was,,, rlly cute
since it was fall when you joined, jungwoo informed you that it was important to care for the flowers so that they wouldn’t be too affected by the weather change
you remembered one cloudy october day when the club couldn’t meet bc of the expected rain storm that evening
you had been about ready to head home for the day when you saw something strange through the windows, where the garden was
there, you could see a very frustrated jungwoo trying to set up tarps over the garden to protect them from the harsh weather
he hadn’t quite gotten it set up right
it was supposed to stand like a small tent over the flowers that weren’t covered by the trees, but it kept slipping off the middle post
rushing out to the patio, you drop your backpack next to the back door and sprint over to help jungwoo steady it
he’s surprised you’re there, but smiles appreciatively and gets back to work hammering it in the ground on the other side
“thanks,,, i honestly thought i could do this myself but i guess not” he rubs the back of his neck and laughs shyly
you just chuckle, “i saw you struggling and couldn’t help but come over”
jungwoo clicks his tongue against the roof of his mouth, “where would i be without you, (y/n)?”
you bite your lip and look away before he can see how flustered that comment alone makes you
somewhere along the way, he’s gotten the tarp set up correctly, so he’s just about ready to call it a day when all of a sudden,,, it starts beating down rain
Hard
jungwoo, in surprise, grabs an extra tarp he’d taken and throws it over his shoulders before coming over to you and handing you the other side
all he tells you is to “run!” and you just start sprinting toward the cover of the trees because it’s the closest thing to you
and,,, you’re standing awfully close to each other
you don’t register jungwoo is laughing until he unknowingly presses his chest against your shoulder, the vibrations from his laughter shocking you out of your concentrated stare on the crazy rain that forced the sky to be dressed in a dreary grey
you look up at jungwoo and find him grinning at you, “why’d you run this way and not toward the school?”
the rain is beating against the tarp despite the tree cover, but it’s not nearly as much like it is out on the open grass
“oh,,, uh,,, well it was closer and.,,, uh,,,”
yeh no u can’t even find the logic in your choice
but jungwoo doesn’t seem so bothered by it
he looks around the garden and sighs, “i’m glad you came to help me when you did… otherwise the flowers would be in trouble”
you just nod, trying not to focus on how warm his skin is against your own
he suddenly crouches down so you’re uneven and you blink at him, “jungwoo, what are you doing?”
“do you wanna run out there again?”
“uh,, not right now, no”
“then let’s just sit here and watch the rain. it looks really nice like this”
to be honest, you couldn’t see how pretty it could really be sitting outside in the rain, but he was also holding one half of the tarp and it wasn’t like you could really leave him like that,,, so u sit down
you both have to cross your legs so the rain won’t get you wet, and while you’re both sitting on the walkway and looking out as thunder rumbles and flashes of lightning show in the distance, jungwoo says very softly “most people don’t like this kind of weather because it’s wet and cold and disruptive… but i find it kind of peaceful. even though it isn’t very nice for my garden, i still like it in a way. it’s like the world telling you to stay in for the day and rest”
you look over at him once more, but he’s focused on the sky, eyes alight with the same kind of admiration that he has for his flowers
he looks captivating
you smile almost instinctively, “a gardener who likes gloomy weather?”
he chuckles, meeting your eyes, “if you know plants, you know that they don’t just need sunshine all the time. they also need rain. you come to appreciate both and set up protection when needed. kinda like people… though it takes us longer to realize that for ourselves in comparison to plants.”
you’re not sure what to say after that, so instead, you scoot minutely closer to him and start to look at the rain through the same rose-colored glasses that he does
you don’t realize how long you’ve stayed out there with him until one of the teachers leaving for the day catches sight of you both and tells you to come inside before it gets too late and the storm picks up more
reluctantly, you walk with jungwoo until you get under the patio and its overhead roof, and when you grab your phone out of your bag, you find that you’ve got quite a few missed calls from your parents
“i really should go, my parents are probably pissed i missed their calls” “ok!! i’ll see you tomorrow then?”
he lets the tarp fall, and his hair is a little mussed from the rain that got on him before you both found shelter
his skin is dewy from the humidity
but he looks just as handsome as he did the first day you met
“yeah… tomorrow… hopefully we don’t get caught in the rain again” you joke
jungwoo suddenly turns bashful, “i… wouldn’t really mind”
that’s probably the day you fell for him tbh
you kept your feelings mainly to yourself, and when you found out about the valentine’s tradition, you thought that maybe,,, maybe you could just get those feelings out and be free of them
so you made your own heart instead of buying the ones you guys were selling and put it up on a random tree when you were sure jungwoo wouldn’t see
only, ,, you had expected to be the only one
it turned out that when you and some of your friends went walking through the garden to see if anyone left any for you, you found the trees decorated with so many other hearts that had jungwoo’s name
yours was the only one that was different
before you could go back and snatch it down however, jungwoo had already found it
“why’s this one look different?” you’d heard him ask his friend yukhei, who had begrudgingly tagged along
“idk dude, maybe they wanted to be special. you’ve got like a thousand fans around this school u know”
you don’t know why your heart felt so,,, pained when you heard that
after all, you just wanted to “confess” and get it out of your system in some way so you could move on
why would you care so much that other ppl liked him too? you couldn’t control that!!
however, you went home with a few hearts that your friends had left for you and decided that you would just leave it at that. the next day at school would be as normal, and you would start getting over your crush on kim jungwoo
except,,, it didn’t happen that way
if anything, the years that dragged on only made you more in love with him
and so, every year, you would leave another heart (always homemade, always the only one of his confessions that was different in some way)
and you never dared to sign them
you would stay anonymous and hope that by the time you graduated, your feelings would somewhat dissipate with age
look bih!!! it’s not working!!!
plus,,, it seems like ppl just keep catching on the longer it goes on
especially yukhei
you had never even talked to the guy but he had caught on to you after the first valentine’s incident almost immediately
he just spotted you in the hall, walked up to you, and said (in a very not subtle voice) “so you like my best friend!!”
you had to shush him and pull him around a corner where there were less students
and he’s just grinning like a fool, “you seem cute! don’t hurt him tho or you’ll wish you hadn’t”
and ur just like ;-; pls don’t threaten me i’m just tryna live my life as a simple lovestruck human being
but then he shakes his head “i’m just kidding, i know you wouldn’t hurt him,,, but why,,, won’t u tell him”
u: !!! i’m fine being just friends
yukhei: LOL yeah no really why won’t u tell him
feeling like you can’t continue to lie, you tell him that you feel like you won’t have a chance, what with the fact that he has so many admirers already and you don’t want to take any chances bc i mean,,, u really really like him
and you’ve already become his friend so why jeopardize that
but then yukhei is like “well,, i understand that much, but i think that you should still tell him. if not now, at least before it’s too late. you’re just going to keep feeling unsure and if you miss your chance, you won’t forgive yourself for that…. i know that it’s scary, but i will tell you one thing and you can figure out what to do with it: there’s a great chance your feelings aren’t as one sided as you think”
then he drops his eyelid down in a wink and pats your shoulder and leaves you like that
yet, still, you don’t confess
at least, not yet
you continue to just be friends with jungwoo and leave him that same unique heart in the garden every valentine’s but that’s it
you continue to keep yukhei’s words in mind, but haven’t yet decided went to act on them
fast forward to graduation, everything is all over the place
ppl are getting ready to head straight off to college, others are planning parties to celebrate, and others are just unsure of what to do
jungwoo knows that he’s going to miss this school with his everything
he’s already crying harder than his parents when he wakes up the morning of LOL
yukhei also comes over early that morning just to threaten remind jungwoo that he should wait for him so they can go to college at the same time
jungwoo: who even said you would get into the same college as me?
yukhei: do you think i don’t have my ways. we’re going to college together you fool
for some reason,,, jungwoo just pulls out the box of hearts he’s received
and he sets out the three unique ones he received
he had honestly tried his best to figure out whose writing it could have belonged to, had tried to rule out ppl who bought the hearts the club made, etc.
he never got to find out
he had once jokingly asked yukhei if he made them for him but yukhei just grinned all knowingly and told him he needed to look a lil deeper
and jungwoo was ???? but really anxious to know
but today was the last day for this mystery person to personally confess, and he felt a foreboding feeling. like it wouldn’t happen
he goes through the ceremony, taking pictures and the works
yet, the whole day, he hasn’t seen you
sure, he’d seen you walk the stage, but you had disappeared into the sea of people as soon as the ceremony ended
he had sent you several messages but you hadn’t answered any of them
he had taken his last pictures with the rest of the club and had elected the next leader of the club in a very emotional goodbye
he decided he would find you later, maybe see you before the day ended after he finished having dinner with his parents
he had one last thing he wanted to do before leaving, and that was in the garden
he looked at it now, a beautiful, ever-growing thing that had come a long way since ninth grade
now he was leaving it, and he couldn’t quite believe it
he wandered down the stone walkway and found his flower, right next to yours
he couldn’t help but snap a few pics of them, sending one or two to you in the process
when he had finished up reminiscing, he found himself just sitting on one of the benches and watching as the wind swayed the branches of the trees, distorting the sunlight that filtered through the leaves
he felt himself quietly laughing to himself as he recalled when you and him had gotten caught in the rain here all those years ago
it felt so far away now
tugging his cap off his hair, he leans forward on his knees and sighs
until something pink appears in his vision
it takes him a second to realize there is a little cut out heart in front of his face, hanging from a red string that dangles off a familiar finger
on the heart is his name, in that familiar handwriting that he had never been able to recognize
and underneath his name,,, it was signed
with your name
jungwoo follows the finger to your face, a nervous twitch in your smile as you hold the heart out to him
“i meant to leave this for you before you got here but… yukhei told me you’d beat me to it”
jungwoo breathes out in disbelief before reaching into his pocket for his own homemade heart with your name on it
“i guess we both have funny timing” you laugh, watching him stand from the bench to take your heart from you
jungwoo blushes, “the fact that we’re both here tells me our timing is good enough”
you watch as he puts both your hearts on a branch next to each other, watching the wind blow them back and forth in the breeze. the strings they’re hanging on tangle and it feels like a sign

Family Pack: part 1
So, I’m a werewolf. But it’s cool, my whole family is. Well kinda, let me start from the beginning.
You know how in stories, werewolves are these dark, angry creatures who live in solitude and prey on helpless young virgins? Yeah, that’s not the case. We don’t care if you’re a virgin or not, we’ll still eat you. No, I’m kidding. But let me tell you our story.
My name’s Brooke, I’m 19, and I have exactly 0/17 family members. Let me explain. I’m an orphan. I live at St. Mary’s Home for The Lost in eastern Pennsylvania, right on the edge of the Appalachian Mountains. It’s actually not that bad, I never really knew my actual parents, and the Head of Home at St. Mary’s is pretty nice. But even though I don’t have any family, I do have a pack. My pack parents took us in after they couldn’t have any kids if their own. All of us come from either a home or a dysfunctional family. We meet up every full moon to hunt.
I remember the first time I got introduced to the pack. I was only 13 at the time of my change. It was in the end of March, right when it’s just starting to reach warm weather but the nights are still freezing. I remember waking up in the middle of the night in so much pain…like seriously, I thought I was going to die. Somehow, I was able to stumble out of bed, past the HoH, down the stairs, and out to the back yard without internally combusting. Once out in the open, I just started moving. Jumping jacks, sprints from one edge of the yard to the other, riverdance, you name it and I was trying it. The movement helped my aching muscles to calm down a bit, and I say a bit. Running is what helped the most, so started running lapse around the yard. When that started to not work, I tried the gate at the far end of the 4 ft tall wooden fence that encompassed our tiny yard. Much to my surprise it was open, even though the HoH always locks it. She seems to think a bear or mountain lion will wonder in from the nearby woods. But tonight it had been left open. Not even thinking about what an idiotic idea it was for a tiny 13 year old to go run out into the woods, I opened the gate and booked it into the trees. That’s when it happened.
The running felt amazing. I was going faster than I ever had before in my life. The pain was still excruciating, coursing though me like a fire, but I kept going. Cold night air whipped around me, keeping me cool. Several times I accidentally stepped in some leftover snow that hadn’t melted yet or a patch of frozen mud. I had stared on two legs like a normal human being, but when I looked down to jump a tree root, I landed on all fours and just kept going that way.
Finally after about 15 minutes, I had to stop for air, and that’s when I realized it. The pain had stopped, but I had changed. My legs were bent the wrong way at the knee, my entire body was covered in a thick dark fur, my hands were now claws, and even my face had elongated into a snout. I started freaking out, it’s not every day you transform into a freaking wolf hybrid. That’s when they showed up.
Slinking out of the woods were a group of werewolves! Of course I had read about werewolves in books and seen movies with them, but I had never seen one in real life (probably because they were supposed to be a myth). There were about five of them, all slowly coming towards me, some on two feet, some lumbering on their feet and knuckles, and one completely on all fours. Needless to say, this didn’t help with my panicking. I tried to scream, but it just came out as a yelp. That’s when Mom came up to me.
She walked right up to me and started nuzzling me with her soft head. Her warm auburn fur gave off an aura of friendliness and love. She wrapped her arms around me and hugged me to her chest so I could feel her heart beat. I don’t know why or how, but this seemed to do the trick. My breathing returned to normal and I was able to stop shaking. I pulled my head back from her to look at her face. Her features were light and delicate, with a halo of gold fur framing her head. Her eyes were a beautifully dark brown that just enveloped you in their warmth. I instantly loved her and wanted to be close to her.
She stood up and walked me over to the rest of the pack. I remember feeling uneasy when I first met Dad. He was larger than Mom by almost 6 inches, and his coat was a honey yellow with speckles of brown. He stood up from his lumbering position to sniff my face and give me a quick lick on the nose. His eyes were a piercing blue color, like a still lake when it reflects the clear sky.
Next we’re the twins, Michael and Mitchell. Their matching dappled brown coats and duo colored eyes made them almost impossible to tell apart. When I walked over to them, they immediately tackled me to the ground and started playfully nipping at me. A growl from Dad told them to knock it off, but I was already scrambling to stand back up. They hadn’t hurt me, but being tackled by two grown wolves is enough to startle a young girl.
Lastly was Timothy, a seven foot wall of muscle. His black coat made him intimidating to approach, but with the rest of the pack by my side, I crawled over. Timothy looked up from his stance on all fours and sniffed my face before deciding that he approved of me. My heart raced as he nuzzles my nose as Mom had done.
After about five minutes, Dad gave a quick bark and off we ran. You may be wondering why I just decided to start following this group of werewolves, but like I said, instant connection. Plus once you realize that you are also a werewolf, it kinda takes the fear away. We ran all night. The pack helped me learn how to run on all fours, be able to climb boulders, navigate by smell, and all kinds of amazing things I had never been able to do before. When the sun started to come up, and we started to change back to humans, mom took me away from the group into the trees and gave me a long dress that she pulled from under a rock. Once we had fully returned to our normal selves, I got a good look at everyone.
Mom and Dad both looked to be in their mid 30’s. Mom’s auburn and gold ombré hair framed her face in a short bob. Dad looked like a high school teacher with his studious glance and short cropped blonde hair. The twins were about 15 or 16, athletic build with big eyes, full lips, and shaggy light brown curls. Timothy was a 6 ft tall giant of a man with dark skin, a full beard, and muscles everywhere. When he saw me coming, his face lit up in a smile. I guess he liked having a new member of the family.
Before they took me back to the Home, we stopped at a tiny cafe for breakfast. I hadn’t realized just how starving I was. Apparently everybody dealt the same way because we are enough to feed a small army. The owner of the cafe didn’t seemed the least bit fazed about bringing out stack after stack of pancakes to a group of ppl who came in out of the woods at 6 AM. I wondered if the pack came here often?
When we had finished, we started the walk back home. I was able to sneak back in through the still unlocked gate. Mom gave me a big hug and told me that I’d be seeing them soon, before sending me in. When I reached the room I shared with three other girls my age, I looked out our window to see everyone wave goodbye one more time before starting a slow jog down the street. I closed the blinds and snuggled into bed, completely exhausted from the nights events.
Anyway, that was 6 years ago, and man have things happened since. But, that’s a story for later.
