Chapter Thirteen

The Tea

Pairing: Hanma x Fem!Reader

previous | next | unholy matrimony masterlist

The next afternoon you leave your house to meet up with Baji for lunch. However, you're a bit concerned- you've never met this guy before so how are you even supposed to know who he-

Just as you walk into the café where you're supposed to meet Baji, you find a man with long black hair yelling at the barista from the counter. He then turns around to stomp out of the building while caring two foam cups, ignoring all the other customers who turned their attention to him. That is, until he spots you and stops dead in his tracks. You groan to yourself as realization hits you. You can't believe that this is who you have to deal with.

"Y/N?" he asks.

You look around at the people in the café whose attentions are all turned to you as though they're invested in your answer. You laugh awkwardly as you're forced to answer.

"Uhh, yeah..."

With a bit of a frown still on his face, he holds out one of the foam cups out to you. "It's tea," he explains almost angrily. "Black."

You do your best to take a deep breath and keep it together as you face this stranger. With a fake smile, you thank him, but you're insides scream seriously?! Black tea?! However, it is nice that he did that for you. And it seems like he went out of his way considering that it was something to get all worked up and angry over.

But then, Baji begins to walk away from you without another word. He heads towards the opposite side of the café with a few empty tables and you're forced to follow after him. In the end, the two of you sit down in the corner of the space.

"So what was the deal with that barista?" you ask hopefully as you take your seat.

"Two cups of black tea shouldn't be seven hundred freaking yen!" he grumbles angrily.

"That's- Were you really yelling about that when I walked in?!" you ask a bit disappointedly.

"Do we need to keep talking about this? It's kind of a sore subject, you know!"

You nod as you try to hold in an eye roll and instead take a small sip from your burning hot tea. He wasn't kidding, it's black tea alright- absolutely no sugar, honey, milk, or anything!

"What do you want to talk about then?" you ask him as you swallow down the somewhat malty-tasting drink he's given you.

"What we came here for," he says quite honestly. "Listen, Toman's having a dinner for some sudden new alliance with the Akashi clan. It's probably due to whatever the hell you idiots did to their casino the other night. I'm pretty sure they're pissed!"

Okay, ignoring that he just called me an idiot... He's probably right. They're both pissed off at Hanma which is why they're joining forces.

"How come Hanma doesn't know about this? He is still part of Toman after all," you ask a bit confusedly.

Baji shrugs as he takes a large sip of tea. "I don't think anyone from his division was invited to the dinner. Our treasurer has made Mikey suspicious about Kisaki and Hanma lately. I wouldn't be surprised if he knew about Otsuda, too."

"Goddammit," you grumble. "Well, what should I do to help?"

"I was thinking that since Mikey's never met you, I could bring you along with me to the dinner. We can find out their next move before we make ours."

"What about your plan?" you wonder.

"Plans change. That can be our backup if we need it."

"Sure," you nod, thinking that his plan to infiltrate the Toman/ Akashi meeting isn't a half-bad idea.

After your lunch date, you walk into Hanma's office with a cup of cold, black tea in your hand that you place down on his desk before sinking down into a chair until all your husband can see is the top of your head.

"Ugh," you groan as you completely collapse into place.

Hanma grins when he sees you. "Hey, babe, how'd it go?"

"Terrible," you whine. "This is a total setup. Something's off about this entire thing but it could prove to be beneficial if it's not... I don't know what to do..."

"Do you feel safe around him?" he asks. "I could have Chikao tail the two of you from a distance if it would make you feel better."

"No, no," you respond as you wave your hand in dismissal of the idea. "I'll be fine. Don't worry Chikao about this."

Besides, he's already busy watching out for Kazutora.

"Okay, well if you need anything I'm only a phone call or a text away," he nods.

"I know," you mumble as you sit up a bit more in the chair. "I got it."

"Now, what the hell is up with this half-filled cup of... tea?" he asks as he lifts up the foam cup.

"It's black tea and I can't drink it. Baji bought it and complained about the price so I didn't have the guts to just throw it out without finishing it. I thought that since you like black tea, maybe you would want it... or throw it out for me," you smile sheepishly.

Hanma chuckles as he takes the lid off the top of the cup and raises it to his lips.

"This is ice cold!" he says after consuming the tiniest sip.

"Yeah, well don't blame me," you sigh. "It's not my fault that Baji talks so damn much!"

"It's fine," he smiles. "I appreciate the thought, princess."

Read through light novel vol. 4. Random thoughts.

I'm not sure which version of the execution I prefer; the anime's or the LN's?

Anime: gets all the way to the guillotine before Naofumi steps in to spare the King and Malty, doing so because he realizes how much he's looking forward to their deaths and feels very mixed about it. He saves them for his own sake, not their's.

LN: He's the one who demands they be put to death and is only talked down from it by the Queen appealing to his sense of logic and reason, pointing out all the the problems that the King's death could cause.

Both versions appeal to Naofumi's character but different parts of it, so it's hard for me to say which I like better. I don't have problems with heroes wanting revenge and wishing bad things upon those who deserve it but I did like in the anime that he chose to be better than than his instincts, even if NOBODY could blame him if he didn't lift a finger to help the two after all they'd put him through. But on the other hand, he was still badly burned enough that it's completely understandable he'd want them to get the punishment they deserve, and it's good character that he's not so lost in his need for vengeance that he won't listen to reason.

The two versions feel kind of like I just played through a Telltale version of Shield Hero. The story diamond all comes to together to end at relatively the same point but the different paths and choices leading to the characters feeling different ways about the MC. "X will remember that."

Anyway, speaking of the Queen, she was one of my favorite characters in the anime and I am so happy she's just as awesome in the books. She came in and laid down the freaking law. There was just such a sense of elation reading her just tear into and publicly humiliate her husband and daughter. Some of it is clearly her venting her anger, but the thing is it feels completely justified. Not just because of what they've been doing to the Shield Hero but rather the biggest problem of what their selfish and shortsighted actions have caused between them and the other countries.

She feels like a real proper authority and I like her relation with Naofumi. It doesn't feel like she's treating him well because he's the main character but rather that she's doing it for her kingdom. I've heard a criticism of RoTSH is that every character is either completely against Naofumi or relentlessly praising him. While I've only seen the anime and not yet read the whole series, I feel like that ignores the Sword and Bow Heroes, whom are still observing the situation and haven't made up their minds about Naofumi, and the Queen, whom is just trying to do right by her people by doing right by Naofumi. Not that she doesn't like him at all but you get a sense of where her priorities are.

"But why is Malty tied up? And is that a gag in her mouth?”

“Because she doesn’t know how to shut her mouth, that’s why.”

Dammit, woman, you're married! Stop making me love you!

The Ideal

PAIRING: Jooheon x reader

GENRE: College AU / fluff, a hint of angst

WORD COUNT: 4,995

DESCRIPTION: When you meet your ideal man, you will do whatever you can to catch his attention. But what if your ideal man isn't the one meant for you?

Author's note: My second fanfic! I am not sure how I feel about it but I was suddenly struck by inspiration and wrote it down! The ending is a little abrupt but I like where I left it. Enjoy!

If there was ever an embodiment of your ideal man, it was the smiling man sitting across from you. His dark hair, tall stature, and fit body, paired with his quiet but friendly demeanor, was everything you had ever found attractive in a man. When his eyes looked over towards you and his mouth curled up into a toothy smile, you unwillingly smiled back without hesitation. You felt like you could look at him all day.

“Y/N!” Laura said loudly into your ear. This pulled your attention away from the god sitting in front of you and onto her face. She gave you a curious look and asked,”You okay? Jooheon is trying to ask you a question.” You then followed her eyes over to the dimpled boy who was already looking at you in wait.

“I’m sorry! I just got lost in thought. What did you need?”

“I was just asking what you think we should do the project about. We only have two weeks to complete the project so I think we should decide as soon as possible.”

Oh, yes. The project. You had almost forgotten the whole reason you were sitting in this cafe with these three. You were assigned as a group for an Astronomy project.

Instead of directly answering Jooheon, you looked across the table again and asked, “I’m okay with anything. What about you Shownu?” After a moment of thoughtful hesitation, he spoke, “What about the phases and rotation of the moon? I think they are fairly simple and will be easy to do research on.”

After a quick vote, all four of you agreed on Shownu’s idea. As the group continued to discuss the basics of the project, you kept finding your eyes on Shownu’s face. The way he intently listened and only spoke after a few moments of thought was so intriguing to you. You only knew how to speak whatever was on your mind, in what sometimes felt like it was far too drawn out for the message you were trying to convey. But Shownu, he seemed to know how to say exactly what he needed to say in the shortest and clearest way possible.

After a few more short discussions, the four of you split up to go home, deciding to continue the conversation the next day. On your walk back to the dorm, it didn’t take long for Laura to bring it up.

“Sooooo, what was up with that?”

“With what?” You asked, pretending you had no idea what she was talking about.

“Um, the whole googly eyes thing you were doing at Shownu?” She said with a hint of suspicion in her voice.

You had a quick thought of lying to her but you knew she would find out anyway so you confessed, “Laura, he is my perfect man.” You looked over at her with a big smile and continued, “I mean, he has everything I could ever ask for. Tell me, do you believe in love at first sight?”

“Pfft!” she laughed, “No, but I am guessing you do!”

“Not until just now.” You said wistfully, earning another laugh.

“Listen, I am not saying that it’s not real, just be careful with your heart okay? You are too precious to be throwing your love to any guy that has a charming smile.”

-----------------

“Jooheon!” You yell out when you saw him walking across the quad.

The night before, you and Laura realized that you hadn’t exchanged numbers with the boys in your group to continue your project.

When Jooheon looked over at you jogging toward him, you gave him a small wave. This caused him to return your gesture with an adorable eye-smile and a wave of his own. As you got closer he asked, “Hey Y/N, what’s up

“Hey,” You say slightly out of breath, “I realized that we forgot to exchange numbers yesterday.”

“You’re right! Here, just put your number in my phone, I’ll text you so you will have mine.” He said while handing you his phone.

As you typed your name and number in, you asked, “I was actually thinking we could meet up at my dorm this Saturday. I was just going to get some pizza and I thought we could all work on the project and eat together.” You handed his phone back as he responded, “That works for me! I will let Shownu know and make sure it is good for him too. I’ll shoot you a text as soon as I know.”

“Awesome!” You exclaimed as you turned to head to your next class. “See you then!”

----------------

The knock on the door made you jump. You had spent the past 2 hours cleaning your dorm for your visitors. Laura had arrived 30 minutes ago and just enjoyed watching you run around, flustered and anxious. She still tried to calm your nerves through her entertainment. “Y/N, it’s just a project meetup. Not a date. It is okay to take it a little less seriously.” She meant well but her words did nothing to calm your thoughts.

Now, with the object of your anxiousness just behind the door, you took one last glance around the room. Everything was tidier than it had ever been, but it still didn’t feel like enough. With a deep breath to collect yourself, you opened the door.

Shownu’s large frame was standing imposingly in the doorway with Jooheon right behind him. Before you could greet them, Jooheon lifted up the cans he was holding. “I hope it’s okay that we brought beer. It was his idea.” He said while nodding towards Shownu.

“Oh, o-of course.” You said, trying to hide the reluctance in your voice. You had never been much of a drinker and had only planned to eat pizza and study but what damage could a few beers do?

As soon as the pizza arrived, you all sat down to eat and go over the project. A few minutes in, you started on your first beer. It was just as gross as you remembered from your graduation party after high school. The slight malty flavor wasn’t one you normally enjoyed but you noticed, the more you drank, the better it tasted.

-----------------

The sun woke you up the next morning. The blinding light pierced through your eyelids and added to the ache in your head. You rolled over and fought to fall back asleep. As you pulled your hands up to your face, you grazed something soft. Your hands stopped on the object as your brain tried to catch up. After a lingering touch, your brain recognized it as foreign.

Your eyes flit open as you sat straight up. There was someone sitting next to your bed with there head gently resting on the side. Before you could clearly look at the their face, nausea hit you like a ton of bricks. You quickly sprang out of bed and towards your open bathroom door. As you were heaving into the toilet you heard your name lightly called from the other room.

“Y/N? You okay?”

You couldn’t respond immediately but as soon as you could catch a breath, you replied,”I’ll be okay.” You took a few more breaths to test your nausea and as soon as you were confident you were done, you turned toward the bathroom door.

When you saw him, you were simultaneously relieved and embarrassed at the same time. You couldn’t help but sigh a breath in relief that it wasn’t Shownu, but Jooheon watching you puke up your guts. At the same time, you were embarrassed that any one had to see you that way.

Jooheon furrowed his brow in concern as he bent down towards you. You turned your face away from him because you were sure you looked like absolute hell.

“Are you sure you’re okay? Maybe you need to lie back down.” He said while moving closer to examine your face.

You shifted backwards, trying to keep a more comfortable distance between the two of you. “If you give me a minute, I should be fine now that I got it out of my system.” After a moment of not-so-comfortable silence, you continued, “I’m sorry.”

“No Y/N, don’t apologize, I should be apologizing for bringing the beer. I knew we were only here for the project but I tried to make it a little more fun. I’m sorry I did that without asking.” He immediately retorted with remorse on his face.

You half-heartedly smiled back and sneered, “How about with both accept each others apologies and get over it?”

He smirked back and nodded his head in agreement. “Okay.”

After a couple more moments of sitting in awkward silence on your bathroom floor, Jooheon stood and you gladly accepted the hand he extended to help you stand.

As you made your way back into your bedroom, you suddenly remembered the person who was leaning on your bed when you woke up. It didn’t take you long to realize that it must have been Jooheon.

Your cheeks heated up, just now comprehending that he must have spent the night in your room in order to be here right now. You flipped around and asked abruptly, “What are you doing here?”

Jooheon seemed startled for a moment but not very surprised be the questions. His eyes looked away from you and searched for another object to occupy his sight. “Well, after a few beers last night Laura passed out on the couch and you were right behind her. You suddenly got very clingy and kept hanging on Shownu. When we tried to help you to your room, you refused his help. I ended up bringing you in here by myself, and when I tried to leave you wouldn’t let me.” His face slightly reddened while remembering. “You kept grabbing on to my hand and crying that if I left, you would have bad dreams. I decided to stay until you fell asleep, but I guess I fell asleep too.”

You were glad you couldn’t remember any of this, just hearing it from someone else was embarrassing enough. “I don’t remember anything but I am really sorry that I did that. I have been told I am a needy drunk.” You apologized once again.

“It’s all right. I am just glad you could sleep okay.” He looked back towards you and asked again, “Are you sure you are all right?”

Though your raging headache disagreed, you nodded and again assured him that you would be okay.

“I know that you said it was okay, but you will let me at least get you a coffee for your troubles?”

You saw the hesitance in his face but he reluctantly accepted, “If you really want to. I would argue but you don’t seem like the kind of girl who would take no for an answer.”

After checking on Laura sleeping on the couch in the living room and taking a couple Asprin, you and Jooheon headed to the cafe down the street from your dorm. You knew you both must look like the walking dead but neither of you seemed to particularly care.

You both walked silently, you trying to let the cool air simmer down your headache, and Jooheon seeming to be distracted by the changing color of the leaves.

With your coffee ordered and you seats taken, you felt the sudden urge to break the silence.

“Jooheon, what is your major?”

He nonchalantly answered, “Music production.”

Your eyes suddenly lit up in interest. “Really? That must be so much fun. I love music but I don’t think I am creative enough to do that.”

“It’s really just having and good ear and a basic understanding of musical theory.”

“I have neither of those.” You retorted. This received a small chuckle in return.

“So what are you majoring in? You must be good at something.” He said sarcastically while showing off those signature dimples. You’d noticed them before, but for the first time, you didn’t want to see them go away.

“I am a space kind of girl myself. That’s why I’m taking Astronomy. I haven’t declared a major yet, but I have a feeling that Astronomy is the one I am going to go with.”

“Space… I’m impressed. That’s really complicated. I am only taking Astronomy for one of my basic science credits. It’s only been two weeks and just thinking about it gives me a headache.” He grabs his forehead while saying this.

You giggle and tell him, “Honestly, it’s not always easy for me either, but it just never ceases to amaze me. There are so many fascinating things going on out there that we can’t explain. For example, did you know that there is a star in the Orion constellation that could explode into a supernova any day? If it happened, the supernova would be so bright that we could see it during the day. My favorite part is that it might have already happened but we can’t see it because the light is still travelling to us.”

You don’t even try to hide your excitement while talking about it. Once you get started on space, it’s hard to stop. You go on to talk about the science behind it. After a couple of minutes of blabbering, you suddenly concerned that you are boring poor Jooheon to death. But when you look at him, him and his dimples seem to be hanging on your every word. You smile and continue.

------------------

Almost two weeks later, you once again find yourself in your living room surrounded by your project group, this time with no beer.

Your group had met up a couple more times since your pizza night and this was to be your last meeting before your presentation the next day. You had apologized to Shownu about hanging all over him the first night and he had accepted. You also tried your best to flirt with him every time you met up but you never could seem to act normal around him. You typically knew exactly what you wanted to say but you tended to stumble over your words when talking to him. You hadn’t really gotten as close as you had hoped for on that first day in the cafe.

As you were opening the fridge to grab a water, you heard someone enter the kitchen behind you. “Water?” You asked while turning towards them.

Jooheon shook his head, lightly refusing. “I actually have a questions for you.”

“Sure, what’s up?” You asked.

“The science museum is actually having a special show this weekend in their planetarium. It’s going to be about the Orion constellation.” Jooheon paused for a moment and shifted awkwardly on his feet. “I was wondering, since you really seem to be interested in it, if you wanted to go see it… with me?”

“Of course!” Why in the world would you turn down this opportunity? “How much do you need for my ticket?”

Jooheon seemed slightly thrown by the question, “Oh, nothing! I already bought them so let’s just say that this one is on me.”

You bickered about it for a moment before letting Jooheon have his way.

-----------------

You had been ready for a while now. You tended to overestimate the amount of time you needed to get ready. This caused you to be lazing around on your couch with your favorite white jumper on, and your makeup done a little bit nicer than your average school day.

Anxiousness came over you in waves but you weren’t sure why. Of course you were excited about the planetarium and of course you knew you would enjoy it, so what were these butterflies trying to fly around in your stomach?

It had already been ten minutes since Jooheon text you that he was on the way so you were just quietly waiting and letting your thoughts and excitement occupy your mind. You were so lost in thoughts about Orion that the doorbell made you jump. You smoothed out your jumper as you stood up, grabbed your purse, and headed towards the door.

When you opened it, you were greeted by a charming smile, paired with those dimples, which immediately caused you to smile back without thought.

There was something about Jooheon that seemed slightly different. You thought it might be his clothes. Even though he kept his typical street style, something seemed a little bit more put together and sophisticated about it. Then you thought that maybe it was his hair. Rather than falling across his forehead like it normally did, it was swept up over to one side. But the more you looked at him, the more those explanations didn’t seem to be right. Somehow, he just looked a little brighter.

You exchange your normal greetings and promptly headed down towards the bus stop. On the way, Jooheon lamented about not having a car, which you told him was understandable for a college student and that you didn’t have one either.

After you had taken your seats on the bus, your conversation once again turned to Jooheon’s major.

“Okay, so I get that you like music but have you had the chance to make any of your own yet?”

“I’ve actually been making my own for years.” He said with a small look over to you to gauge your reaction.

“Really? Why haven’t you already shown it to me?” You asked, slight disappointment in your voice.

“It’s kind of embarrassing to show to other people.” He gazed out of the window, ”I really want everything to be perfect, but then I always think that no one other than me will like it.”

“Jooheon!” The sharpness in your voice cause him to turn his head back to you. You took the opportunity to make sincere eye contact with him. “I know that if it is your music, it has to be amazing.”

He held your gaze for a couple more second before looking down with reddening cheeks, “But you have never heard it, how would you know that?”

“Then let me.” You paused for a response but he just kept his head down. “I am serious. I know if you are as big of a music nerd as you make yourself out to be, you have it on your phone right now.”

He couldn’t argue with your logic at all. Wordlessly, he pulled out his phone and earphones and placed one in his ear. He passed the free one over to you so that you could do the same. After a visible moment of reluctance, he hit play.

-----------------

The two of you had arrived at the planetarium earlier than expected. You had no problem with it though as it gave you plenty of time to continue your conversation about Jooheon’s music.

“I wouldn’t lie to you!” You told him desperately as you took your seats, “That was some of the most unbelievable music I have ever listened to and it didn’t even have lyrics! How did you even do that thing with the synth noise?”

“You really want to know?” He asked hesitantly. You fervently nodded your head.

He went on to explain some of the basics of creating the song with a gleam in his eye. You could see how much he really loved music and how much more he loved making it. You suddenly found yourself wondering what he looked like when he was working on it. Did he have this same child-like look in his eye or did he get serious with a thoughtful crease in his brow. Maybe he flashed those dimples whenever he found a beat that he really liked. You really wanted to see all of it.

Before you knew it, your conversation halted because of the dimming lights and the announcement that the show was starting. All throughout the show, you couldn’t help but quietly explain certain things to Jooheon in more detail as the synthetic stars twinkled above you. When you finally tore your eyes away for a moment to see how Jooheon was doing, you found yourself immediately caught in his gaze. The was something in the way he was looking at you that made you linger there. Maybe it was the suddenly apparent closeness of your faces. Maybe it was the tightening in you chest. Or maybe it was the way the manufactured stars reflected in his eyes.

“Y/N.” He whispered so quietly you almost couldn’t hear it. You used it as an excuse to move a little closer.

“I need to tell you something,” He looked down at your lips. “I lik-”

Your moment was suddenly cut off by bright lights suddenly coming on. Both of your looked around, blinking, waiting for your eyes to adjust. It seemed that while you were distracted, the planetarium show had ended.

-------------------

The next school week flew by and before you knew it, it was the weekend once more. You and Jooheon had kept in contact all week and talked everyday about music, astronomy, and your lives. You weren’t quite sure what was happened between the two of you but you knew you didn’t hate it. As an excuse to see him, you asked the whole project group to come over once again, but this time just to hang out and have a good time.

Once more your found your living room messy with pizza boxes and beer cans. This time, you had made sure to slow yourself down and drink plenty of water. While Laura was ranting about her annoying math professor, you excused yourself to the restroom.

Almost as soon as you stepped out of the bathroom door, you ran into a wall. On second glance, it wasn’t a wall but Shownu. Your cheeks immediately heated up at the close distance between you, but Shownu didn’t step back.

“Y/N.” He stated with his thoughtful voice.

The sound of him saying your name, combined with the close quarters of your hallway and the alcohol coursing through you made your body shiver. Without waiting for a response, he continued.

“You like me right?”

The suddenness of the question made you trip backwards into the wall. “Um, u-uh,” you stammered over your words for a moment but he patiently waited for your answer.

“Yes?” You couldn’t help but notice the question in your answer.

He looked at you for a moment longer before taking a step closer, causing the distance between you to be next-to-nothing. “Then, will you go out with me?”

What? Had all your flirting actually gotten through to him? Had this moment actually come?

“Go out with you?” You repeated his question back to him in order to buy some time to process what was going on.

Shownu leaned closer, removing any distance you had between you before. You could feel his breathe on your ear as he repeated, “Yes, go out with me.”

For a moment, you stayed just like that. Close enough to kiss with just one word from you. Your eyes found his perfectly pouty lips as you opened your own to respond.

“Hey Shownu, what’s taking you so long to-”

You pushed Shownu away but it was already too late. As soon as your saw Jooheon’s face, you knew you had screwed up. His eyes were opened wide and his brow was furrowed in confusion.

“What is this?” He asked quietly. When neither of you responded he asked louder, “What is this?!”

“It’s not wh-” You were cut off by Shownu’s voice.

“I was asking Y/N out.” He stated matter-of-factly.

Jooheon looked at you to see if he was telling the truth. You looked away to avoid the expression on his face. It didn’t take long to hear his footsteps move away swiftly and the front door slam behind him.

When you finally looked up at Shownu, he looked as confused as you had ever seen him.

“No.” You softly said, your voice barely above a whisper, “I am really sorry, but I can’t date you.”

You weren’t quite sure when it had happened, but you knew that in these past few weeks, your view of your ideal man had changed. No longer was it the strong and thoughtful type. The toothy smile and lean muscles just weren’t doing it for you anymore. Now, when you closed your eyes and thought of the perfect man, he didn’t look anything like the one standing before you. The man you thought of had an eye smile to kill for. His dimples were out of this world and his ambition was beyond compare. He laughed carelessly and smiled boldy.

---------------------

It had been two weeks. Two weeks without even a text. You hadn’t seen him in class and he ignored your calls. You were at a loss. Even Laura joined in on the effort but it seemed like Jooheon had dropped off the face of the earth. You had one last option.

You stopped Shownu after class. You hadn’t talked much since you rejected him, but he didn’t seemed to fazed by it.

“Have you heard from Jooheon?”

“Yeah, we actually just talked last night.” He said with a hint of interest in his voice, “Why?”

“Well.” You paused to think,” I just needed to get him some notes since he has been missing but he hasn’t gotten back to me.”

“Oh.” He responds, “Do you want me to take them for you?”

“No!” You say immediately, “I really need to explain a couple of things to him, so could you have him text me please?”

“Yeah, no problem.” He says, seeming to easily accept your explanation.

“Thank you!” You say as you start to walk off, ”You’re a real lifesaver!”

If this didn’t work, you weren’t sure what would.

------------------

That night, you almost couldn’t believe your eyes when you saw Jooheon’s name light up on your phone. You didn’t hesitate in answering.

“Jooheon! Where have you been? I was worried when you weren’t showing up to class. Are you okay?”

“Yeah,” he said, not seeming very interested in giving an explanation. “Can you do something for me?”

“Anything.” You immediately answered.

“Come to my place. I have something to show you.”

------------------

The walk wasn’t far and you were at Jooheon’s front door within ten minutes. When he opened the door, relief flooded over you at the sight of his face. He seemed okay and well rested. The only thing that was missing was that charming smile and those signature dimples.

After he waved you in, you noticed his dorm was exactly what you expected it to look like. Pretty bare with mostly just necessities. Some shoes and clothes strewn about but not much else. He offered you a water and your politely declined. You quietly followed him into his room.

While his living room was bare, his bedroom was anything but. The amount of technology piled on his desk and shelves surprised you. Normally, you would immediately comment and start asking questions, but right now you were mostly concerned with the sullen look on Jooheon’s face.

“Sit.” He said as he pulled out his chair from his desk. You sat down and let Jooheon place his large headphones on your head. You watch as he clicked a few buttons on his computer. Just as you were about to ask what was going on, the music started.

The rhythm was slow. It seemed unlike the other music he had played for you on the bus, but somehow it was also intrinsically his. When you looked up at him, he seemed to be searching your face for a reaction. The moment your eyes met his, you heard his voice. You were puzzled for a moment because his mouth didn’t seem to be moving. It only took you a moment to realize that it was the song.

His rap somehow stood out but blended with the music so perfectly. Like they had been made to meld with one another in perfect harmony. He continued to search your face as you listened to his words.

All of the happiness and pain he had poured into the music flowed into you. With not so direct words, he was telling you how he felt. You didn’t need any explanation to know.

All too soon, the song ended and you found yourself still staring into Jooheon’s eyes in the silence of his still room. You removed the headphones and open your mouth to speak but before you can say anything, Jooheon starts, “Listen to me before you say anything.” You quietly nod your head for him to continue.

“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have ignored you these past two weeks. I had a lot on my mind and for some reason, I thought holing myself up in here and making music the right thing to do. I thought that if I pretended that you didn’t exist, it would hurt less but I kept finding that the only thing that I could think about when producing, was you.” You tried once again to interrupt but he continued.

“Shownu told me what happened. He told me that he came onto you and that you rejected him. I just thought that there was no way that you could turn him down. The first night we studied at your apartment, you mumbled about his smile until you fell asleep. I thought there was no way I could compare. I still don’t know if I can but I do know one thing. No matter what, I need to let you know how much I like you.” He stopped talking but continued in his unwavering eye contact.

“My turn?” You asked. He nodded.

You wasted no time in connecting your lips with his. He jumped at the sudden contact but quickly reciprocated your movement with his own.

You pulled away after a few moments to say, “I like you too.” and then immediately dove back in.

It's the last #VinylAndBeerSunday for #2020. I was in a Progressive Rock mood - so I opted for the second live album from EMERSON, LAKE, and PALMER (or ELP). Their massive three-disc set, WELCOME BACK MY FRIENDS TO THE SHOW THAT NEVER ENDS is a bloated set of ELP classics that catches the band at its 1974 best. It's bombastic, self-absorbed, and over the top. But I loved it when I was listening to the band in the late 1970s. And I love it now. The album contains my favorite version of JERUSALEM. I have accompanied this classic set with a fine ESB from RED HOOK BREWERY out of Seattle, WA. It's a malty brew that almost fools you into believing that you are in a UK pub. And somehow, it's a beer that fits the music perfectly. I love it when a plan comes together. So...what are you listening to? What are you drinking? #records #vinylcollection #vinyl #emersonlakeandpalmer #elp #progrock #welcomebackmyfriendstotheshowthatneverends #beer #craftbeer #beerstagram #redhookbrewery @redhook #beermusic #sunday (at Salem, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJUwI4yAa-x/?igshid=f4m7ma55pd3i

BSEB result: Farmer’s son who makes to topper’s list aspires to study in IIT - Times of India

New Post has been published on https://apzweb.com/bseb-result-farmers-son-who-makes-to-toppers-list-aspires-to-study-in-iit-times-of-india/

BSEB result: Farmer’s son who makes to topper’s list aspires to study in IIT - Times of India

Self-study is the success mantra for clearing any examination, says Durgesh Kumar

Durgesh Kumar, son of a farmer from Samastipur district who secured the second rank in the Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) class X exam merit list aspires to study in an IIT. With 480 marks out of total 500, Durgesh emerged as the second topper after Himanshu Raj who secured 481 marks. He was hopeful of securing good marks in the board exam. However, making to the merit list was an icing on the cake for him and his family.

Despite financial hardship faced by his family, Durgesh, managed to study hard, under the guidance and support of his uncle who is a science teacher at BS Inter College, Karua in the district. “I am thankful to my supportive family and teachers who encouraged me to study hard and guided me to work on my shortcomings,” says Durgesh who loves Mathematics.

“My uncle who runs a coaching institute helped me clear the doubts and strengthened the basics while preparing for the board exam,” Durgesh tells Education Times. He mostly preferred to study books by NCERT and Bihar State Text Book Publishing Corporation (BTBPC) for his board exams instead of mindlessly chasing expensive reference books.

A student of SK High School Jitwarpur and native of Malti village near Samastipur, wants to prepare for the Joint Entrance Examination (IIT JEE) simultaneously while studying in class XI. “Taking coaching class might be not a viable option for me due to the financial conditions of my family,” he adds. Self-motivation and self-study are the success mantra for clearing any examination, he says.

Youngest among four of his siblings, he watches comedy serials and listens to music to relax from his hectic study schedule.

Good bye Malta, Hola Canary Islands

After 9 days of having pretty slow Internet making posting this blog impossible, I have high speed Internet in Casablanca - so here you go - better later than never.

March 10, 2019

Hola from the Canary Islands We spent our last day in Malta casually exploring Mellieha. We had lunch at a little spot called Sea View where we had a burger and an unbelievable sea view.

At the recommendation of others, we tracked down the Cave Bar and found it greatly lacking in size and depth - and FOR SURE different than the ads we had seen. The idea was kinda’ cool - but there are LOTS of things in Malta built into the rock. Anyway - we saw it - but decided not to stay.

For our farewell dinner we headed to Mosta and had an amazing Maltese dinner. Now I have to say that we have not been terribly excited by the food we have been served here - but after this dinner, we believe we simply picked some one or two star restaurants based on location and not cuisine. Check out the menu.

Add to that two amazing musicians singing and playing - table by table - and you had an enjoyable atmosphere to enhance your dining. Here is the Mizet Malti"

And a traditional Maltese dinner. From left to right we have rabbit stew, lampuki fish and spicy sausage with a delicious vegetable blend. All of these tastes were new to me - with the exception of the the rabbit ( I ate that as a kid.) Each was a new explosion of taste for me - and while I can’t say I LOVED the lampuki, I found everything else delicious. Olives are a common ingredient in Maltese food - and I generally don’t care for olives, but these olives had a very different taste than the ones I get in the US, much milder - so I liked them.

After dinner we had a Maltese folk dancing show and it was simply delightful.

And with those activities we close out our Malta adventure but 2 more pieces of info: 1. The Maltese language is complicated. It is a mixture of the Romantic languages and Arabic. They love the letters q, w, x, and j - letters that get not much respect (or use) in English. The letter “j” is used for a short “i" sound - so the word “airport” is spelled “ajruporte.” The letter “x” = ch like Chinese. The letter “q” is silent in the front of the word - but act like a hard “k” sound. My favorite bus stop was Qaqqab (sounded like "ah-cob”. The letter “r” seem to be silent in every word we heard and then saw printed. We figured out some words - but listening was a much better way to learn than seeing the word in print. We truly enjoyed trying to guess how a word might be pronounce or spelled - but we failed miserably in both areas.2. The Maltese Falcon: Yes, Virginia there is a Maltese Falcon. I’m talking about this:

Not this:

The Maltese Falcon is really a Peregrin Falcon that lives in Malta. However it was significant before the Bogart movie. While they are rare on Malta these days at the time Charles V of Spain gave the Knights of St. John the little gift of Malta - he asked in return that the Knights send him one Maltese Falcon a year as a Thank-You gift. This was due on All Saints Day (November 1 currently) - and they paid up - year after year. Who knew? The following morning - VERY EARLY - we boarded the city bus one last time, luggage in hand and headed to the airport. From Malta we flew to Rome, Italy and an hour later boarded a flight for the island of Tenerife - one of the Canary Islands - part of Spain.

The trip took most of the day and it was a long way - 3020 kilometers or 1800+ miles. By 5:00 we had met up with our nephew, Alan, and his wife, Lynette, and we were comfy in our lovely apartment overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The temperature was 22C and sunny. PERFECT!! We have gained an hour putting us only 5 hours behind Michigan. We have lots of plans, to explore and learn a great deal more than we knew about these islands. Until later - Adios!

Shakespeare Teas - Just in time for Valentine’s Day - why not give your partner teas based on your favorite tragic Shakespearean couple? [x]

(Disclaimer: please do not kill, plan regicide or commit double suicide with your partner.)

Hamlet: [assam melody, chocolate chai, lapsong souchong + cardamom and chocolate chips inclusions] To tea... or not to tea? A tea black enough for a prince's melodramatic soul, thick with touches of chocolate and a tiny bit of smoke - perhaps from the ghosts you can't exorcise from your cup? Ophelia: [rooibos jasmine, snowbud, summer rose + rose petals and lavender inclusions] That's rosemary for remembrance. Pray you, love, remember. Sweet, floral, delicate and maybe just a little bit batty. Romeo: [gunpowder, mandarin green, lemongrass + lemon verbena] A crisp, headstrong, citrusy green tea blend to sweeten your day and give you the energy kick you need to scale balconies and make questionable dueling decisions. Juliet: [passionfruit, rooibos mango, wild strawberry + hibiscus and mango inclusions] Would a rose by any other name smell as sweet? Well, it would if it were full of strawberries, mango and passionfruit - the sort of warm drink to get your teenage heart racing. Macbeth: [mambo, cinnamon, currant + cranberries] A deep red, warmly spiced tea for conquering kingdoms and listening to witches - even when you shouldn't. Currant and cranberries add a subtle fruitiness to a dark, hearty tea. A good tea for when you need to be bold, bloody and resolute.

Lady Macbeth: [mambo, gingerbread, tiger eye + marigold flowers, cranberry and safflower inclusions] What, will these hands ne'er be clean? A ripe red tea you won't want to wash off - gingerbread and tiger eye make a surprisingly sweet combination over mambo's malty background. The effect is warm, a little spicy and robustly caffeinated - a tea blend for the lady who gets stuff done.

Othello: [peppermint, gunpowder, white cucumber + safflower inclusions] A traditional Moroccan mint and green tea blend with a smooth touch of cucumber to calm a hot head and soothe any jealous, green-eyed monster.

Desdemona: [thai chai, white eternal spring, almond + blueberry and apricot inclusions] A gentle, fruity tea with a complex, gingery spice. The sort of girl longing to be let loose to prey at fortune - even if she meets a sticky end.

As promised, we’ve got part two of our two-fer from the team bringing Department of the Peculiar – Goes Pop to Kickstarter RIGHT NOW. This time artist Robert Wells. Part one of the two-fer featured Rol Hirst, writer of DotP.

Rob’s been on zine love before, so this makes him our first returning interviewee for the site (stealing the position at the last moment from someone else that I was slow to respond to!!).

DotP 2 page – pencils

DotP 2 page – inked

He seems to be constantly busy drawing something and collaborating with creators whose work I enjoy, which is how I came across his work in the first place. He has really strong chops when it comes to drawing and designing characters and a lovely turn in understated snipe, so that’s been a bonus – as well as being lovely to chat to.

You can buy from him here, check out some free downloads of DotP here and back it here, and socially follow him on twitter instagram or facebook

DotP 2 Heroes? stretch goal!!

Over to you Rob – tell us a bit about yourself and your tastes

Can you tell us a bit about the first creator whose work you recognised?

The first comic creator was John Byrne. I remember thinking that the art in X-Men, which he was still drawing at the time, looked similar to the art in a Marvel Premiere two-parter featuring Ant-Man (#47 and #48), then I noticed the credits in a comic for the first time and realised that people actually drew these things.

Marvel Premiere-47-48

Outside of comics, I was about to give the same answer as Rol (Hirst – writer of Department of the Peculiar – see interview here) and say Stephen King, as I’ve read quite a lot of his books (probably less than half of them but that’s still a lot). Then I remembered that when I was a kid, I really liked James Bond films and that I read a lot of Ian Fleming’s James Bond books (and some written by other people) when I was at secondary school. That was probably the first time I ever saw a film or TV series and then went and on to discover the source material, which was often quite different. (I have no interest in James Bond at all now.)

James Bond covers

Which creators do you remember first copying?

Maybe John Byrne but I probably copied things out of comics before that not knowing the names of the artists I was copying.

More generally I’d say Charles Bukowski, whose work I probably wouldn’t enjoy much at all now and may even find quite offensive, but I liked it a lot when I was in my early-20s. ‘Copied’ may be an exaggeration but around the time I was reading a lot of his stuff I started going to a writers’ workshop to improve my writing and in the couple of years I was going there I wrote a lot of semi-autobiographical short stories that often involved a lot of drinking.

Charles Bukowski covers

Who was the creator that you first thought ‘I’m going to be as good as you!’?

I don’t know how to answer that really. I’ve hoped to be as good as a lot of creators, but I don’t know that I’ve ever thought that I would be as good as someone, not even artists whose work I dislike. I’ve certainly seen a lot of art that’s made me think ‘I could do better than that’ but that’s generally the work of amateurs who I wouldn’t be able to name. Art I tend to dislike in professional comics I usually dislike because it’s bland or conforms to some dull house style (I’m thinking of a lot of DC comics from a decade or more ago) but even then the artists involved probably have a better grasp of anatomy and better basic drawing skills than me, they are just working to tough deadlines and drawing characters who have to be drawn in a certain way.

Which creator or creators do you currently find most inspiring?

Cult of Luna – Mariner with Julie Christmas

Sean Phillips, who I still can’t believe I was cheeky enough to ask to do a pin-up for DOTP Goes POP! #1 after he told me he liked my book. Not only did he agree, he even posted me the original art.

Other than that, I can’t think of one particular example right now but like Rol I love Better Call Saul and watch a lot of TV in general, particularly US TV, and I’m sure that influences my storytelling. I also listen to a lot of music – particularly metal – while I’m drawing and that really helps me to switch off and lose myself in my work.

Which creators do you most often think about?

Jaime Hernandez = Love and Rockets

For comics it’s Jaime Hernandez. He was already great when I discovered Love and Rockets in 1986/1987 but he has somehow kept getting better. I often go for long periods without engaging with his work at all (I haven’t bought any issues of the current Love and Rockets series yet and because I rarely get to visit good comic shops, I haven’t even seen them) but I always pick up the collections and come back to it eventually.

More generally? Now I will say Stephen King, even if what I’m usually thinking is just: ‘Bloody hell, he’s somehow written three more huge books since the last one I read, and I still haven’t read at least 20 of the ones I picked up in charity shops a decade or more ago!’

Can you name the first three creative peers that come into your head and tell a little bit about why?

Rol, Paul Rainey (who encouraged me to start drawing comics again at a time when I had almost given up on it), and Martin Eden (who I exchange long emails with very regularly).

Paul Rainey – Thunder Brother Special -cover

Martin Eden – Zeros

Finally, can you tell us a bit about your recent work and yourself?

I’m 51, married, no kids, two dogs. I live in Kent. I self-published my first comic in 1991, when I was 22, published a handful of other comics in the ‘90s, didn’t do much at all in the 2000s, but got back into it big-time in the 2010s, when I was in my early-40s. It’s only since I did my graphic novel (which even I didn’t think I’d actually finish when I started it) that I feel like I’ve developed any confidence and really got going. I’d be happy for everything I did before that point, along with the years I wasted doing things other than drawing, to be stricken from the record. I write and draw but now I seem to be mostly drawing and I’m quite enjoying collaborating with other people on comics for a change.

I’m currently working on Department of the Peculiar Goes POP! #2 (just finishing off a 3-page back-up strip but the rest is done)

About to start drawing a 6-page sci-fi strip, written by Paul Duncan, for The ’77 #3

Malty Heave #2 (with Phil Elliott). I have written most of my story for this horror-themed issue, which will probably be out for Halloween now, but Phil and I have both been distracted by other things and haven’t really got going with drawing it yet (although Phil has drawn at least two pages of his strip).

Thank you very much for taking the time to fill this out and let us into your mind.
