#Might doodle old ideas of the au too one day- because some had potential and fun dynamics I'm sad to let them go completely đ
I can't sleep cuz of pain, so here's the long awaited explanation post about the Youngjustice!Au for Vat7k (and tts/rta)
Donella is Batwoman and Ulla was Superwoman before she disappeared. Years passed and a new Super is in town : Superboy, aka Varian. So Donella sends her current Robin, aka Hugo, to keep an eye on the boy because she knows how dangerous kryptonians can be.
Hugo is transferred to Var's highschool. And they do not get along. At first. They Also meet as Robin and Superboy and despite not really liking each others they end up being friends.
Quirin catch up on it and confront Donella who doesn't deny anything. He is not a fan of her way of doing but approves the idea of his son not doing patrol alone. So he explains what is going on to Varian.
Robin and Superboy are forever stuck together at this point.
In the middle they encounter Impulse (kid flash if you prefer) and immediately learns his civil identity because the boy isn't veryyy subtle. It's Yong. And a bit after that Wondergirl finds them and introduces herself : Nuru. She's the one who wants to form a team of young heroes with them (to follow in her big sister' steps, who's Wonderwoman) and so the four of them become the Young Justice League.
And yes they're all in the same school. And their parents know (they mentor the team more or less)
Also the TTS characters are there. Rapunzel and co are known as the Titans. Raps is Starfire, Eugene is Nightwing (previously known as Robin), Cassandra is Raven, Lance is Cyborg and Pascal is Beast Boy (I guess). So far they're not very important story wise but they kind of babysit the Young Justice League whenever they're nearby.
The Brotherhood would be like the Shazam family because I still wanted them to be a group. Tho Quirin 'retired' from hero stuff after Ulla's death.
Storywise it roughly follows the original Vat7k, with the kids trying to find their place as supers, Hugo not taking Varian seriously because with his powers he obviously has it easy (it's false) and he's obviously too gullible (also false), and Varian discovering more about his mom and being a kryptonian etc.. There's even the 'Ulla trying to possess Varian' with Ulla's memories being saved within this one kryptonian ship hidden in the arctic (like her consciousness has been transferred to the ship or something). And obviously Hugo and Varian ends up together.
So yeah those are the basics ! So far. Changes might happen someday, I'm still debating on some stuff. I do have more details here and there I'm planning to doodle but nothing too crazy
Sooo yep, here you go

the one where gansey befriends a deer: the au
hey remember that time ronan dreamed up a deer that was described with language suspiciously similar to how adamâs described, because i sure do!!! anyway
OK.
ok. so. this auâs actually evolved a lot since its initial already-pretty-fleshed-out inception one sleepless night, so me talking about itâs gonna be more than one post, but hereâs the first one well actually the second technically yesterdayâs warmup doodles were also from this au but i didnt talk about it at all so
and Iâm gonna start with more or less the same pitch I gave to a couple people on discord
SO. starting out: itâs standard fantasy times, vaguely medieval but no specific time period because I donât care enough to be digging into that quite frankly, but it is somewhere in England where this is happening. Story starts with just Gansey, Ronan, and Noah. Fey are very real and known entities and thereâs been a conflict in England between the fey and humans, if not in the whole country then at least in the lands that the Ganseys are the lords of but probably the whole island tbh, and Ganseyâs not inherited the lands yet but heâs going to and wants to maybe find a peaceful resolution to the conflict. Itâs not open warfare by any means but itâs been a big problem.Â
To the effect of solving that, he heads to some little village that I havenât named but itâs right next to a known fey forest called Cabeswater. This village has avoided being stomped by the local fey because, despite witches not being particularly liked by the nobility of the time, thereâs a big old coven (the psychics of Fox Way, essentially) situated right by this village thatâs kept things in check. Ganseyâs made his excuses to his parents about why heâs officially going there but really he wants to talk to the witches and get a better grasp of the conflict from the people actually dealing with it. He and Ronan set out from home together, pick up Noah along the way--who is not a ghost in this AU, heâs a fey who owes Gansey a life debt, thatâs a whole other post and THIS post is mostly about gansey and adam--but anyway they get to this village and NOBODY gives gansey the time of day.Â
the witches donât let him into their house because they donât like the nobility right back thanks and the next time he tries to visit Cabeswater wonât even let him get to the covenâs dwelling, the one witchâs daughter who regularly stops by the village for supplies and to check if anyone needs anything has a big argument with him the first time he talks to her so thatâs going nowhere, and, well, the villagers are polite, but they clearly donât take him seriously. Heâs just the lordling playing at things and potentially meddling in their business to them.
So he starts hanging out just barely within Cabeswater, even though he knows thatâs not wise, because he finds this perfect spot by a stream, and heâll sit out there and think and work on the journal he keeps of all his thoughts and plans, and one day while heâs there has a straight up Disney princess experience when a deer stops by the stream and seems incredibly unafraid of him. he cherishes the experience but accepts that it probably wonât happen again.
and then it does. several times. ganseyâs losing his mind. this deer??? apparently likes listening to him info dump?? itâs very therapeutic and also very magical and heâs amazedÂ
a few times in, he names the deer âPryderiâ after a character from a welsh legend, because âsuch a handsome creature deserves a princely name,â [[muffled blue laughing and whispering âprincelyâ in the distance]], and he tells ronan and noah about this experience but ronan doesnât believe him at ALL.Â
one time after ganseyâs particularly upset at how bad his attempts at getting along with the villagers, Pryderi actually lets Gansey touch him for the first time and gansey cannot shut up about it to ronan whoâs finally like âi think youâre bullshitting me about this deer thing. im coming with you next timeâ and ganseyâs like âwell heâs a deer he might not show up if a strangerâs around and he doesnât come every time i go down there anywayâ and ronanâs like âthis sounds like a lot of excuses, dick, youâre not making me believe you any more with thisâ and ganseyâs like â>8\âÂ
but pryderi does show up, and gansey is delighted, and ronan stares really hard at him and then goesÂ
and ganseyâs like what? nooo. but ronan keeps arguing it for the duration of the visit and the deer actually starts to look annoyed and at the end ganseys like ok maybe but i doubt it. and then hes like âwell since you are a fey apparently (/sarcasm) i ought to say farewell with respectâ and bows very mockingly and then the deer makes direct eye contact with ronan and bows back and gansey loses his shit
gansey continues meeting up with pryderi but even while his infodumping still happens it does so now with the knowledge that He Does Actually Understand What Im Saying, he may be a fey but he seems like a friendly one and hey thatâs way more than gansey thought he would get out here, and also this deer is his friend now thanks,Â
he, ronan, and noah (whoâs amused by Pryderi but keeps his main thoughts to himself for now) make some excursions into cabeswater, but the thing is noahâs not really native to england, heâs from the european mainland, again iâll get to it in another post sometime, but. he can sort of help navigate cabeswater but not all THAT well so they get lost a couple times, and every time it does happen pryderi shows up and helps guide them out. thereâs some very funny moments of a very jealous ronan getting into weird conflict w/ a very smug deerÂ
anyWAY one day thereâs like a festival, everyoneâs drunk because its the middle ages and thereâs not really a drinking age, ganseyâs making another effort to make friends with anyone, and this one guy about his own age is like âok look here iâll teach you the folk dance everyoneâs doing ok?â and gansey spends the night dancing w/ a handsome stranger, yes he will recognize the irony in the morning, but for now it goes. well badly because theyâre both drunk but itâs fun, and then the guy says âah, fuck it, iâll finish teaching you next time we see each otherâ and ganseyâs like âthats a little forward but ok!â and the guy (adam. its adam) panics and leaves while ganseyâs back is turned and gansey doesnât remember that last snippet of conversation the next day nor can he quite recall the strangerâs face. ronan does, because he was watching and not sure which of the two he was jealous of, but neither of them has any idea who the guy actually was.Â
and then like, 3 days later, gansey falls asleep at the spot he usually hangs out in in cabeswater and wakes up in the early evening just in time to hear people yelling and for Pryderi to burst into view with an arrow in his flank. he collapses in a bush. gansey snaps into âprotect friendâ mode and gets the hunters off his trail by being all âoh a strange buck? i saw it pass that way over there friend!â and then when theyâre gone he comes back and is all âalright pryderi theyâre gone, let me just--â except pryderiâs not a deer anymore. itâs a boy.Â
(Adam. its adam. the deer is adam.)Â
gansey takes him home, gets the arrow out, noahâs like âi mean heâs not a fey, i dont know what turning into a deer is about but if he were fey the iron in that arrow would already have him dead. he might be partially fey but so little that heâs human in the ways that really matterâ, over the next couple days they figure out that pryderi is in fact from the village and is a young man named adam parrish whoâs been labelled a changeling and is assumed dead since he was yknow shot, gansey decides for now its probably best to keep him that way, but adamâs not getting better--apparently even having had the arrow in him as briefly as he did has poisoned him, heâs desperately ill and on the third day is finally like âget persephoneâ so gansey tries again (heâs tried several times over these days, theyâd worked out that to have survived this long he must have someone else with a small degree of fey blood teaching him the ropes and the most likely suspects are the witches, but heâs hoping adam specifically asking him to will grant him permission enough to go in) and runs into a very frantic blue en route who as soon as he makes it clear heâs got adam is like âmove your ass over on that horse im climbing on tooâÂ
they get persephone, who turns into a fox rather than a deer, she saves adam, everythings cool except adamâs pissy now because he cant go back to the village and he has to give up on the attempts he had in the works to get out of town by working his way out and he takes it out on gansey who doesnt deserve it because this friendship is a mess, heâll feel bad and take it back eventually but thats yet more posts ANYWAY YEAH theres our starting pointÂ
(also worth noting: due to cabeswater being Right There, p much everyone in this village actually has a small degree of fey blood, adam just won the genetic lottery)Â
tl;dr adamâs a fey-blooded witchâs apprentice and heâs been the deer the whole time and thats the start of this au ty for coming to this rambleÂ

Canât sleep gotta write about Sonic epilogue headcanons
Romantic relationships - fankids
I donât have allll the details but this takes place in a mashup AU primarily based on SatAM and Underground. Aleena was not queen but rather was King Maxâs top advisor (things might have gone better if she HAD been queen). Sally was the crown princess but decided not to reinstate the monarchy after Robotnikâs defeat. Instead Sally and Aleena are in charge of the Acorn Council, composed of former Freedom Fighters and community leaders from all over, whose mission is both to heal the damage caused by Robotnik and also to rise above the flaws of the old kingdoms.
Some of these ideas may apply to Dead Reckoning; however there are key differences, and since Dead Reckoning is a long-term work in progress my plans are likely to change. Therefore this brainstorm does not technically include Dead Reckoning spoilers, but I can and will recycle and improve upon my favorite themes.
More under the cut.
Sallyâs family name is actually Oakland. 'Acornâ is a nickname traditionally given to the heir to the throne. Sallyâs chosen to keep it both for herself and the Council. To Mobius it represents new beginnings, the potential for life and growth in the wake of disaster. More personally, it represents her decision to walk away from the throne and the mistakes of her ancestors. She hopes that her decision will lead to a brighter future for herself and for Mobius, but only time will tell.
Manic was one of the loudest voices calling for democracy. At first, Aleena tried to reintroduce her children to the aristocracy, with mixed success. Manic, despite wanting more than anything to impress his mother, did not fit in. The nobles predictably looked down at Manic for his lack of manners and education. The disdain was mutual, as Manic resented them for their cowardice during the war and their perceived self-importance. Insecurity turned to anger as Manic realized two things. One) He was every bit as intelligent and capable as the people who sneered at him, if not more so. Two) He was no better than the thieves and urchins he had grown up with, and neither were the ruling class. The whole system was built on rot, and because of his newfound family, he had an opportunity to change it.
He started studying history and sociology. It was not easy. The eclectic skillset that had kept him alive did not lend itself well to sitting in a library (in fact he canât remember the last time he read a book from cover to cover). Instead he sought out scholars that had survived the war and got them talking. Academics are generally all too eager to talk for hours or days about their expertise, and Manic just had to listen and remember. When other tasks demanded his attention, he poured through audiobooks. He went back to the experts and asked questions, more and more detailed every week. He got into arguments, lots of them, and so he learned how to articulate his beliefs and then defend them.
But of course, in the world of politics, knowledge doesnât win battles. Networking does. So Manic went to Sonia, swallowed his pride, and asked her to teach him everything she knew. When she agreed, it wasnât just for the chance to show off. With the two of them at odds more often than not, itâs easy to forget that they are never actually on opposite sides, and together theyâre unstoppable. Manic learned manners and courtly protocol, how to suck up and lie for the greater good. Maybe he despised the person he became while wearing the mask, but he couldnât deny how satisfying he was to wrap the court around his little finger. Rather than a liability, he turned his upbringing into his greatest asset. He knew how to make connections, to discern who was trustworthy and who was lying to his face. He knew how to go unnoticed or to make himself a threat. He knew how to twist the truth or how to choose the ground to fight on. And one goal remained at the forefront of his mind; to extend the same opportunity and justice he now enjoyed to the less fortunate.
Manic didnât do it alone, of course. Sonia and Aleena stood beside him, despite their initial hesitation. Putting aside a somewhat rosier view of the old kingdoms, they knew just as well that a better future was impossible without a level playing field. Ultimately it was Sallyâs decision to turn her back on the throne, but when she did, the hedgehogs ensured that any aristocrats who disagreed with her knew not to raise a fuss.
Meanwhile, Sonic:
The Robians have been freed from Robotnikâs control, but their metal bodies remain. The science of roboticization continues to be poorly understood, and the more the Council investigates, the less reversible the process appears to be. As such, Robians best hope is to work through their trauma, get used to their new bodies, and count their blessings that they at least have their memories and their free will.
Among the Robians is Sonic. He was roboticized in the last days of the war, after making a heroic sacrifice that he thought was going to result in his death. Imagine his surprise when he woke up in a metal body. He doesnât like to talk about it. If anyone asks, he insists that he doesnât have anything to worry about with Robotnik out of the way, cracks a joke, and changes the subject. The war might be over, but a lifetime of playing the hero isnât easy to shake off.
Okay, yeah, Sonicâs having a hard time. Now that things have quieted down and he spends less and less time fighting for survival, he has a lot of time to think. Heâs not used to that. He doesnât exactly enjoy it. When he was sixteen he was fearless. When he was twenty he could rely on adrenaline to drown out his doubts. Now heâs staring a lifetime of hardship in the face, and heâs starting to realize that all the things he thought he could shake off may have left a mark anyway, but thatâs not nearly as terrifying as the idea of making himself vulnerable to the friends and family that have relied on him for so long. (They know somethingâs wrong, of course they do, and they desperately want to help. Itâs a work in progress)
On a more positive note! Sonicâs taken up art. Heâs always had a doodling habit, and if made to sit still would pass the time scribbling out cartoons on any surface within reach. Lately heâs started to take it a little more seriously, and heâs getting pretty damn good. Most of his work is lighthearted and bright, with bold colors and fantastical elements. He paints a lot of landscapes, showcasing the regrowth of wilderness in Robotnikâs absence, but always adding his own personal touches. Impossible creatures, dreamlike colors, and loops take the place of his signature.
Iâm going to stop this here, not because Iâm out of ideas but because itâs 4 am and Iâm losing my train of thought. Feel free to send questions or prompts for me to ramble about because I would absolutely love to. Art in the future? May be??

Movie Night
Hey Everyone! So this is the first oneshot of my new series. Its all based on an au where The Losers Club and The Party are childhood friends. Its going to be sweet and sappy, and explore the hilarity that would come from having all thirteen of these teens living in one town (and more or less all living at the Byers house).
Hope you Enjoy! And Check out @losers-partyâ for headcanons based on this verse.
(Read on AO3)
âAre you sure we can trust you with this?â Stan crosses his arms, looking down his nose at Richie.
When the prospect of a movie night was suggested, the entire Byers home excitedly debated potential films and genres. After much bickering, Richie âgraciouslyâ offered to walk to the blockbuster himself. It seemed like a good idea, but Stan was unconvinced of his motives being pure.
âAw come now Stanley! I'll make sure to pick something brilliant.â Richie, chuckling through his famous british guy and winking.
âUgh I'll go with him.â Max groaned, rolling off of the couch.
âSo that you can get some cheesy gore fest? No thanks. I'll go.â Mike W sighed, rising from the floor next to El and Will.
âWhy don't you all just go.â Joyce offered, emerging from the kitchen with a smile that said âits not an optionâ. Mike and Max shrugged, and joined Richie on the lawn.
It was the perfect day for a walk, so no one bothered to grab their wheels. Even Max left her board at home. The blockbuster hadn't been open long, but the kids frequented it enough to know the best shortcut, and for the bored store clerk to know them by name. Mike debated between The Goonies, and The Breakfast Club for awhile before getting both. Max slipped in line behind him and cleverly hid the title of the undoubtedly horrifying movie she picked. The two of them waited outside, taking in the afternoon sun, waiting for a suspiciously long time for Richie to finish finding his movie. It probably was for the best that he didn't go alone, because when asked, he only smirked in reply and clutched the black plastic bag tighter to his chest.
Back at the house, Dustin and Ben were back from their own trip to the supermarket for snacks. Dozens of boxes of candy, bottles of soda, and cookies from the bakery lined almost the entirety of the Byers kitchen counters. The smell of burnt popcorn seeped out from the open windows and filled the yard at they walked up the dirt driveway.
After some bickering over who got which box of candy, who got to take the couch, and who got to sit where, it was almost sunset. Max and Richie whispered and giggled with one another as they hid there vhs tapes, and squeezed into the weathered armchair.
Mike W ignored them and decided to play The Goonies first. It was one they had rented before, but the magic of the film, and the inspiring group of kid characters was all too familiar. It felt like a life each of them had lived.
Mike W, El, and Will crowded the couch next to Joyce. Dustin emerged from the kitchen with the last of the bowls of popcorn and found an open place on the floor next to Lucas and Ben. The coffee table had been pushed against the far wall long ago, leaving room for the tangle of blankets and pillows that seemed to permanently litter the living room floor. Thirteen teenagers crammed together, eyes transfixed by the movie on screen, laughing at jokes they had heard dozens of times before.
Stan and Mike H held hands under a warm blanket. Bill doodled absentmindedly in a sketchbook while Bev leaned her head on his shoulder. Dustin and Lucas tossed popcorn back and forth before Hoppers booming voice filled the room.
âHey, if you are going to have a food fight then you need to actually clean it up.â The police chief got home just as the credits began to role for the first movie, and an inky blue night sky settled outside.
âOh like you didn't start the last one.â Bev teased, turning to look up at him.
âAnd I won too.â Jim winked, leaning over the back of the couch to kiss Joyce's head and ruffle Elâs. All he had to do was snap at the giggling kids in his chair to send them to the floor. âWhatâs playing next?â
âI grabbed The Breakfast Club.â Mike stood to change the tape, stepping in between the unoccupied spots on the floor.
âActually, now that it's dark, I thought we could watch something a bit more... thrilling.â Max smirked, unearthing her secret movie pick. Dr. Terrors House of Horrors. A horribly dated looking and well loved box cover depicting the classic style of 1960âs horror.
âGod Max! I knew you would pick something messed up!â Mike sighed, but reluctantly let her play the movie. He could see where this was going, so he pulled Willâs hand and dragged the smaller boy into the dining room. Neither being a big fan of horror, whenever Max got her way they would settle for finding something else to occupy their time.
As the sounds of sweeping orchestral music played from the tv set, Mike grabbed the scrabble set from the shelf. Everytime a shriek from on screen made the smaller boy flinch, Mike would grab his hand or make him laugh by placing down a ridiculous word. Mike was no scrabble champ, at least not compared to Stan or Max, but he was good enough to keep Willâs attention away from the gore on screen.
After the first act, Stan and Mike H joined them at the table. Stan looked practically woozy from scenes that were making Max and Richie cackle with delight. It didn't take long for him to get in the zone however. Playing words like âFoliageâ, âOxazepamâ, and âPhilanthropistâ. They had an unspoken rule to not even bother keeping score if Stan was playing (although he kept his own score in his head). One round turned to three, and then five, and then they lost count. Giggling and sipping sodas and ignoring whatever was happening in the living room.
Eventually the numbers in the living room dwindled. Ben and Bev decided to leave to one of the back rooms when they had been aggressively shushed for the last time. Bev thumbed through a magazine while Ben put his New Kids on the Block tape in Jonathanâs old boombox.
Eventually Lucas joined them too. Not even lying shoulder to shoulder in between Max and Dustin could save him from the headache all the screaming was causing. Lucas really enjoyed spending time with this quiet couple. Lucas curls up at the foot of the bed and flips through a stack of comic books, making sure to share his favorite panels with the other two. Ben has his nose buried in a journal. He keeps sneaking glances up at the other two on the bed, and Bev takes notice. Part of her wonders if he is writing another poem, and the way he curls the edge of the journal up to block her view, she thinks he might be. She blushes at the thought.
Some point later they can hear the stomping of a sleepy Hopper make his way to bed. As well as the giddy laughter of the board game turning into more of a âlets see how ridiculous of a sentence i can makeâ game when Bill and Dustin join the table.
That leaves only Richie, Eddie, El, Max, and Joyce in the living room. Eddie fell asleep some time during the beginning of the movie. Richie runs a lazy hand through his hair while his eyes stay glued on the screen. Joyce smiles out at the group of kids in the dining room, and silently wishes Jonathan could be here too, as well as those two terrific partners of his.
Stan and Mike H get up to get ready for bed after Stan realizes his nightly routines have run a few minutes behind. Not long after, a sleepy Will shuffles back to his room as well, followed slowly by the others one by one. Mike W collects El from the couch and walks with her to Willâs room that has more or less become a community slumber party room.
Mike H comes back out and scoops up Eddie, carrying him to his sleeping bag with a smile. The chatter in the house quiets to only a few hushed whispers as one by one the kids drift off to sleep.
Once the movie ends, Max drags herself to curl up in between Bev and Lucas on the small bed, certainly only meant for one person.
âAre you tired?â Joyce smiles down at Richie, the only person left on the mass of blankets in the darkened room.
âNot really. You up for one more movie?â He swaps out Maxâs tape for his own and Joyce nods.
âWhat do you have in store?â Joyce smirks. It has become a secret tradition between the two near-insomniacs. Richie makes a game out of finding the strangest movies in the âforeignâ section. Whatever has the most interesting box art, or the most obscure description.
âIt's called âThe Holy Mountainâ. Its spanish, from 72, but the back said that it isn't for the faint of heart. I figured we could handle it.â Richie took his seat next to Joyce on the couch and let the film play.
Usually Richie feels the need to make jokes during movie night (much to everyone's chagrin), but that need is never present with Joyce. Her unceasing understanding and patience. It's like she just gets him, no strings attached.
Inevitably, the droll of spanish lulls him to sleep. Slumping against the arm of the couch with his glasses falling crooked. He never remembers it, but he always wakes up in his sleeping bag next to Eddie.
Movie nights don't get to happen as often as they all might like. Given their various schedules and after school activities, but it's always a reminder of what they are. A family. Strange and often chaotic, but full of love and acceptance.

Soulmate!Jisung
Requested: nope
Pairing: Wanna One Jisung x Gender Neutral Reader
Warning: none
When I first started an anon requested a Jisung soulmate au but sadly never got back to me specifying which Jisung. So I decided to write one for my bias of Wanna One.
Everybody has a soulmate
Someone who matches with them perfectly
Sometimes their relationships are platonic, sometimes romantic
And it isn't unusual for soulmates to be two guys or girls
There are even people with more than one soulmate
Or a person with no romantic soulmate, whether because they just didn't work, are only friends or even because their soulmate died; sometimes they join another couples relationship
Furthermore, there are various soulmate 'marks'
There are the various different tattoo ones, with dates or names or pictures
Your parents couldn't see colour until they met each other
The mark you have is a little unusual
Because whenever you or your soulmate writes, the others non dominant hand will move the exact same way
When you were younger, you never had any signs of this, not until school started at least
When you hand first started twitching weirdly, your parents got so worried, taking you to the doctor immediately
But they couldn't find a cause, no neurological or muscular problems
But one day, little four year old you happened to be holding a crayon when it started happening
So you decided to put it down on paper, thinking that a pretty pattern might come out of it
But instead of the scribbles you were expecting, what seemed to be weird symbols started appearing
Little you runs to your parents, shouting about how aliens were trying to contact you by taking over your brain
Needless to say, they are so relieved when they realise tha your soulmate mark is at fault, and not aliens or some disease
Thankfully your mother recognises the language, her best friend actually being korean
They quickly tell you that it isn't some alien language and your mothers best friend, Mrs Choi, tells you that it is the korean alphabet
And so you learn both your soulmates nationality and age that day, them obviously being young like you and learning to read and write
And so you start learning korean
You start spending a lot of time with Mrs Choi and her family, who speak mainly korean around you to help you learn and get used to it
You end up becoming best friends with their daughter Suzy in fact
If is wasn't for the fact that she had her soulmates first words to her on her arm, then you two would have thought you were soulmates
But alas, life isn't that simple
Instead you have to put up with you hand twitching at the most annoying moments, like that time you were holding a drink which suddenly spilled all over you
When you enter your teenage years you mentally apologise to whoever your soulmate is, because the amount of homework and notes being taken in class is laughable
Though you aren't too apologetic, because the same thing is happening to you
You do thank the heavens that it happens to your non dominant hand though
And that your timezones seem to be different, as obviously your soulmate most likely lives in Korea; so usually you are sleeping or not busy when it happens
You start to gain the habit of doodling cute little pictures, or writing nice little phrases, offering encouragement on the chance that your soulmate decides to see what you may be writing
Because you definitely do that
Not too often, that would feel like an massive invasion of privacy
But every now and then when boredom takes ahold and your soulmate happens to be writing, you'll pick up a pen and let your hand do the rest
Your friends and classmates are always fascinated when you do this, always curious about what the foreign language says
Pretty soon though, high school is over
And you and Suzy decide to move to South Korea together, for a few reasons
Suzy's soulmates name on her arm is not only a Korean name, but it is in hangul which means they are most likely from the country itself
Then we have your soulmate who is also most likely korean
And lastly, Suzy has relatives who live in Seoul, and have agreed that you can stay with them for however long you want to, so why not take the chance to live in a new country
So off to Seoul you head
A few years go by and you are absolutely loving the city
Locals are constantly being surprised with your level of comprehension of their language
You are loving your job at the restuarant you work in as one of the wait staff
It is a family business, run by the loveliest old lady ever
During these few years, Suzy meets her soulmate, a lovely girl called Jieun
And it gets you wondering when you might meet your soulmate
You have never been one to overthink it like some people, instead just relying on fate to get you to them
But you just now realise that your indicator isn't an obvious one
You won't finally be able to see colour when you meet them; nor do you know the time that you will come together like some
In fact, you now realise that it is quite possible that you have met them just never realised
Before you can go into a mini panic over it, Suzy and Jieun both reassure you that you will meet someday, and that neither they nor you have ever met somebody with the same indicator as you and could have potentially been your soulmate
You do start to check what they are writing more often though
You start to feel like Sherlock Holmes, searching for the tiniest clue in what they are writing that might clue you in as to who they are or where you may find them
But sadly nothing so revealing appears
That is until one day, when you hand is moving in the same short, repetitive pattern for a while
Of course, you get curious, so you decide to see what you soulmate is doing
Well, aren't you surprised when you see a signature being written over and over again
You don't recognise it, and neither do Suzy and Jieun who happened to be with you
They do throw out the idea that you soulmate might be a celebrity though, because why else would someone be writing their signature so many times
You dismiss that idea though, thinking it could simply be someone practising their signature (because you have definitely done that before)
On your way home from work one day though, you pass an ad
On it is a (very handsome) face, and on that?
Well, you know, nothing special
Just the signature that you have about a hundred copies of written in the back of a spare notebook hid in your closet
You stand there in front of the window with the ad in disbelief
Because the handsome face with the signature is someone you recognise very well
You see, when Suzy met Jieun, she got the two of you into season 1 of Produce 101
So when season 2 came on, of course the three of you watched it; sharing laughs and shedding tears together
And so you are very familiar with the boys of Wanna One
You quickly head home to the apartment you now share with the two soulmates, still not believing what you have found out
When you tell the two girls of your discovery, they sit there in shock as well
Unlike you though, it is over the fact that they didn't realise it earlier
Your soulmate is Yoon Jisung
The Yoon Jisung
Wanna Ones very own leader
The three of you sit in silence and disbelief
Their little theory on your soulmate being famous was real
Suddenly you all look at each other and the next thing you know the girlfriends are jumping in circles around you squealing, while you look on with a big grin
You couldn't care less that your soulmate was an idol
That doesn't matter to you
But the fact that you know who your soulmate is, the fact that you are so close to him, well, it makes you feel a little giddy
You don't worry about how you are actually going to meet him, let alone prove to him you are his soulmate
Because for now, you are content
Because your soulmate is living his dream, with ten younger brothers who he ltaes to bits
And that thought makes you happy enough
But also a little hesitant
Because he is obviously a busy person, with a schedule that takes him all over the place
What if he just simply doesn't have the time or space for you?
So when Suzy and Jieun try to convince you to come up with a plan to meet him, you simply smile and shake your head
What you don't know is that in a dorm on the other side of Seoul, Jisung is sitting and staring at a piece of paper with a dreamy look on his face
Around him his members are cheering and teasing him
Because on that small piece of paper is a name, date of birth and address
One that he didn't write conscientiously
Of course he knew it could be anyone's details
But after a quick internet search courtesy of Woojin
He found out that the person in question has the same soulmate indicator as you
And I mean, it isn't exactly a common one
What are the chances that the name written down with his indicator, also happens to be the possessor of the very same one?
Very slim, that's what
And so there he sits, the kids all freaking out around him because he is the first of them to find his soulmate (something he is lowkey happy about. Imagine the teasing if one of the maknaes a had found theirs before him)
And it seems fate is in play, as that very same weekend they have a day free from schedules
So with the managers and the companies permission; him and the boys make a plan
Well, it isn't much of a plan really
More like, Seongwoo will drive (Jisung didn't get a choice in this matter) and take him to the address specified where he would find out if it really was his soulmate
When Saturday arrives, you intend on going about your usual routine of sleeping in, shopping then surfing the web
What you weren't expecting is to trudge to the door still half asleep at midday, pajamas on and hair messy
Only to be stood face to face with a nervously smiling face of one Yoon Jisung
You stand there for a moment just staring at him
An idol, your potential soulmate, is standing on your doorstep
And you look like you have been sleeping for years on end
"Hi, uh, are you L/N F/N?"
You nod your head slowly, thinking that you may actually still be asleep
"My name is Yoon Jisung and, I think you may be my soulmate?"
You straighten yourself out and move back, inviting the male inside
"Does your manager know you are here?"
"Yes...wait, you know who I am?"
"Who in South Korea doesn't?" You joke
Jisung smiles a little before taking the seat you offer him
"Would you like a drink?" you ask, which he declines
You sit down beside him, grabbing your notebook off of the coffee table, before wordlessly handing him it to him, open to the page full of his autographs
"I had a feeling you might be my soulmate too"
He stares in wonder at the page, proof that you may be his soulmate
Out of his pocket he pulls the piece of paper with your information on it and gives it to you
You immediately recognise your handwriting, and the words you had written on a form a few days before
You stand up, quickly running to get some pens, ripping some pages out of the notebook and handing one of each to Jisung
"Write something? Just to make sure?"
And so he starts writing, and you let your hand move on its own
On the page before you, words start to appear
"What's the king of all stationery? The ruler."
Laughter bursts out of you
Half at the bad joke, half at the fact that you have found your soulmate
The two of you look at each other
Before you know it you are holding each others hands spinning and jumping in circles, reminding you very much of Suzy and Jieun
You spend the rest of the day together, getting to know one another
And when he has to leave, his manager picking him up, numbers are exchanged
When Suzy and Jieun find out what happened, they are over the moon
You also allow yourselves to fangirl a little bit
Yes, you could care less your soulmate is famous but still, the three of you got emotionally invested in the lives of the produce boys and here you are, with one of the final eleven as your other half
The next few weeks are full of you two talking
Through text, kakao talk, face timing
And it soon becomes obvious you were feeling things that were more than platonic towards him, so obviously you do something about it
And it happens to be the day thatJisung decides that it is time for you to meet his members
So off you go, him having met up with you, mask on, hood up
On the journey, you hands automatically entwine
What you don't know is that beneath the face mask Jisung cheeks are flaming up
And as you are about to enter the practice room, you pull him to a stop
And standing there in an empty hallway, you place a timid kiss upon his lips
Let's just say, Jisung will never live down the fact that the boys found you two kissing in the hall, and that that was their first impression of you
Requests are open

PS ~ A Peter Parker Story that Begins with Notes
Summary: This is a fluff piece college AU where reader and Peter are in the same English class. They start passing notes because Peter misses class one morning. And then,,,,,, a study date??? And nervous Peter???
Warnings: Swearing. The first word is a curse word. This is who I am.
Female Reader
Word Count: 2365
Part Two
Fuck.
Peter Parker woke up to the sound of his roommateâs alarm, which meant that Peter was late. He must have been too tired the night before to set his alarm. Sighing, Peter reached for his phone. He knew that Ned showered before class, so maybe he had enough time toâNope. Class had started about ten minutes ago. There was no way, even if he could get ready in under ten minutes. Begrudgingly, he pulled his exhausted body out of bed and took his sweet time getting ready; he had almost four hours before he had to be anywhere.
Classes flew by as usual, but it seemed incredibly odd to Peter to begin his Thursday without his English literature course. In a passing thought, he hoped that he hadnât missed anything terribly important. He really enjoyed the material in that class, so he more cared that he missed the quality discussion spurred on by the prof than actually missing any potential assignments. After all, Dr. Terrance always followed his syllabus to a T, so Peter had nothing to worry about.
Regardless, he was sure to set four (more than the usual three) alarms before going to sleep.
-
Peter hurried to get ready so that he could arrive in Dr. Terranceâs classroom early and personally apologize to him for being absent the day before, but the kind professor blew him off and offered a quick debrief if necessary. He declined but made the effort to pay twice the amount of attention in class that morning. Dr. Terrance was obviously appreciative; sometimes, talking about literature at eight oâclock in the morning just isnât all that appealing to a bunch of eighteen-year-olds.
The bell rang before Peter even realized what time it was, but he was zapped from the classical world by a notebook plopping down on his desk. The spiral-bound book was opened to a page topped with the date and what Peter assumed to be the lecture title of the day before. In the middle of the page was a pale pink sticky note that read âHere, in case you want some half-decent notes to copy.â in your handwriting. He looked up to give a thank-you, but he had no idea who had given him the notebook in the first place.
-
Peter made sure to copy all the notes Sunday evening so that he could return the notebook to the owner before class. Making sure to get there a bit earlier than usual, he set the notebook, which was open to the same page, on the corner of his desk. He got out his sticky notes and scrawled âhey, thanks for the notesâ on the pale yellow paper. Then, as an afterthought, he wrote, âyour handwriting is beautiful btwâ and just signed it with his initial: â-P.â Satisfied, he sat back and waited.
A girl sat in the chair to his right. Peterâs attention wasnât drawn to you until you cautiously reached across his desk and took the notebook. After your eyes scanned over the note, you looked up at Peter with a kind smile. He smiled back at you, half being courteous, half because he couldnât help but return a smile as pretty as that.
While you didnât make eye contact with him for the rest of the period, you passed him another pink note right as the bell rang. Youâd folded the note so that the sticky part kept the note closed. As he walked out of the classroom, he slipped the note into his pocket and didnât read it until he was back in his dorm room. ânah, especially not my note script. Dr. Terrance talks so fast during lecture that my pencil basically flies across the page. â(Your First Initial)â
Peter spent most of the evening wondering what he should write back. Heâd started the note, on a classier blue sticky note this time, but he only had âwhatever. I like itâ and a little emoticon face that had its tongue sticking out. Once heâd finished his homework for the evening, he gave up on coming up with anything half decent. He drew a stick figure shrugging and saying âI donât know what else to sayâ in a little speech bubble. Mimicking the folds from the note heâd gotten from you, he folded the paper and placed it in his notebook for the next morning.
-
You had arrived before Peter, so he took out the note and passed it to you as nonchalantly as possible before the bell rang to begin class. He stole a glance at you as you stifled a giggle at his poor drawing skills. After class, you passed him a tightly-folded piece of notebook paper. He unfolded it, filled with curiosity, to find that youâd doodled a little caricature of him during lecture. Underneath, in faux calligraphy, read âPeter Parkerâ. He was surprised to see his name; this girl that heâd barely looked at before knew who he was. Taking out his notebook, he began to pen a note much longer than any you two had shared thus far.
-
He had to wait until Thursday before he could give you the note (no class on Wednesday), and received a long letter in return at the end of class on Friday. In the letter, you told him all about yourself. You started with your name, your favorite color, and a few other random things. You told him what your major was and what you dreamed about doing after college. Then, you wrote about how to spent time outside of the classroom. Lastly, you said you knew who he was because, according to you, âeveryone knows Peter Parker, super smart kid with great humor.â He took it as a compliment.
He wrote a letter over the weekend telling you that he was Peter Parker, even though you already knew that. His favorite color was tied between red and blue, but he might like blue just a tiny bit more on cloudless summer afternoons. While at college, he was studying physics, but he hadnât really decided what he wanted to do after graduation yet. He spent a lot of time doing nerdy things with his best friend and roommate Ned, like having sci-fi movie marathons or building the newest LEGO sets. He ended the letter with a short apology for not knowing who you were.
-
There was a new spring in Peterâs step as he walked to class on Monday. Over the weekend, heâd learned all about the girl who sat next to him in his English class, and he took some time on Saturday to go to the city and fight a little bit of extra crime. Being the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man in a college town wasnât all that exciting; he ended up mostly protecting defenseless young women from creepy assholes at frat parties. While it was rewarding, Peter was always itching for something more. He and Ned would hang out in Chicago on available weekends, taking down all sorts of baddies that werenât expecting any sort of superhero to be there to stop them.
He handed you the note as soon as he sat down in class and watched you from the corner of his eye as you carefully put the note in your bookbag. A smile pulled at the corners of his mouth: he was more than happy to see that you wanted to keep the note both safe and away from your prying eyes. After that, English was thoroughly uneventful, but confusing for Peter. For some reason, he just kept stealing glances at this girl. Youâd captivated him; Peter refused to admit it, but he was done for.
That evening, Ned finally couldnât take it anymore. Peter had been super jittery for straight up a week and a half, and had kept it from Ned. âWhatâs going on with you?â Ned asked the first time he saw Peter smiling at the ceiling.
âI met a girl,â Peter said definitively, like that was that.
âOkay⌠Details? Whatâs she like?â
âWell, actually, she can tell you about herself,â Peter said ambiguously as he pulled your most recent note out of his bag.
Ned read over the letter and encouraged his friend to go for you. âShe seems really nice. You ask her out yet?â
Peter coughed awkwardly. âWeâve actually never spoken before. She let me borrow her English notes that day I missed class, and weâve been writing notes to each other since then.â He pulled out the few other notes he had from you as proof.
âDude,â Ned said as he shook his head, âyouâve gotta use your words, buddy. She sounds great, and you obviously like her. Are you really just gonna let her slip through your fingers? You realize itâs the end of the semester and you might never have a class with her ever again, right? This university is pretty damn big, Peter.â
Peterâs eyes widened. He hadnât thought of that. âIâll ask her the next chance I get.â
-
The next day in class, however, he was too nervous to actually talk to you. His voice got all caught up in his throat, and he felt like heâd been chewing on cotton balls all morning. Sighing as he sat, he decided heâd ask you for dinner the next time it was his turn to give you a note⌠Thursday. He was so busy contemplating how he wanted to ask that the bell made him jump. When he heard a giggle coming from his right, and saw you covering your mouth, your shoulders shaking. Dr. Terrance had already begun speaking, so you mouthed a quick âsorry for laughingâ before paying attention to the prof for the rest of the period. Peter was so embarrassed that he didnât notice your return letter until almost halfway through the lecture.
The letter said that you were glad to know more about Peter Parker other than that he was a nice and funny guy in your English class. You made a comment about how pretty the skies had been now that the rainy April weather was clearing up and the temperature was getting warmer. You said that you loved studying outside and invited Peter to study with you the next day. You ended the letter typically with your initial, but, underneath, you had written a PS: âtext me with a yes or no so that I can tell you where I study xâ with your number underneath.
Peter crashed through the door of his dorm room shouting, âNED!â
âWhat? Did you do it?â excitedly came Nedâs reply from his position at his desk.
âWell, sort of.â A quick pause. âNo, not really.â
âWhat the fuck, Peter.â
âNo, no! Itâs still great! She asked me to study with her tomorrow!â
âShe did?â Ned jumped up and hurried over to where Peter was still standingâŚin the open doorway.
Peter enthusiastically gestured to the letter and handed it over for Ned to read. As he read, Peter shut the door and began pacing around the room. What was he gonna say? Which subject should he take to study? Differential Equations, to show that he was ahead in math? Or should he take his Spanish homework, to show that he was working on becoming bilingual? Should he even worry this much about impressing you? What if youâ
Peterâs thoughts were interrupted when Ned asked, âSo did you text her?â
âOh my God.â
âYou idiot. Text her right now,â Ned scorned, returning the letter to Peter.
He texted you, âhey, itâs Peter! Iâd love to study together tomorrow!â
You replied within minutes, âGreat! I usually sit on the hill by the lake. I bring a picnic blanket, so donât worry about having something to sit on.â
He texted back something about that sounding lovely, and the smile didnât leave his face for the rest of the afternoon.
-
The next morning, he picked out a tee shirt that he figured would make you laugh. The shirt had a picture of ironâs chemical symbol and the word âMANâ underneath it. When he was going to be spending time with Mr. Stark, he was always sure to pack that one. He picked out dark jeans and grey sneakers and was out the door.
The late spring sun was hotter than Peter expected, and his black shirt absorbed a lot of heat. His pace quickened, as he worried about sweating too much before greeting the girl from his English class for the first time. He saw you sitting alone on the hill, reading a thick novel of some kind, your face mostly hidden by a large straw sunhat. He took the opportunity to sneak up on you (maybe cheating a bit using his super stealthy spider skills).
âHi there!â
You jumped a little, earning an accomplished chuckle from Peter. âOh, hello. I didnât hear you walk up. Make yourself comfortable anywhere.â
Peter did so, and the two of you sat in a lovely silence as you read and Peter worked on his DE homework. On the way out the door, heâd decided to go with impressive advanced math. You, however, were too invested in what you were reading to really notice what he was doing at all. He listened to music as he worked, but left one earbud out in case you wanted to talk to him ever. After about half an hour of holding his breath every time you turned the page, of waiting for you to say something, he couldnât help himself anymore.
âDo you maybe want to go out for dinner Friday night?â he blurted, a little too loudly and a little too high-pitched. Fuck. He hadnât realized just how nervous he was.
You laughed, a beautiful sound, and looked over at him, saying, âThat was a bit sudden.â
âIâm sorry,â he said, much quieter, beginning to backtrack, âyou just seem so sweet and funny and lovely and Iâd really beââ
âPeter,â you said, cutting him off, âIâd love to.â
You both turned your blushing faces away from each other, both afraid the other would see, and worked in happy silence for the rest of the afternoon.
