Meeting Ryuhei Kuroda for the first time
Leans F!Reader. You, new in 2A. Pre-relationship.
Tumblr media
"Why don't you pester Y/N instead? They seem like your type."
Mitsuki continues flipping through the pages of new candidates for the game. It seems promising this time. Enough range to satisfy the VIPs.
"But Mitsuki, you're my type and I'm your type." Ryuhei pouts and whines, a daily routine he has adopted, "When are you going to admit that to yourself?"
"No." She peers over at him, face cold and dismissive, "You're not."
"Ouch, that hurt!"
.
.
What was that saying again, treat them mean and keep them keen? Would it work on Mitsuki? Ryuhei contemplates this, striding along the corridors and scratching idly at his chin.
Maybe you could be the pawn in his game. Just until Mitsuki realises that he's perfect for her.
He recalls your face during your first day. Body bowing at a ninety degree angle. Perfect with your formalities and show of respect, no one can deny that. But he and he alone saw your smug, condescending smile as you looked up at him like a challenge.
What was that supposed to mean? Ryuhei isn't sure he's met you before, he tends to not forget a face as striking as yours or such a look of defiance.
And what exactly did Mitsuki mean by you being his type?
.
.
"Hey," Ryuhei leans against the doorway of your office, mask off, playful grin on his lips.
You take one look at him and return back to your task.
"What are you doing after work tonight-"
"I don't think so, Nomen."
Damn. This is a dagger to his heart, rejected by two women in one day.
"Y/N," he grumbles, "You don't even know what I was going to say. As you're new here, maybe I was trying to be generous and show you the ropes. Have you thought about that?"
"Ryuhei," If this guy is going to drop his professional conduct, so would you. "I know your type. It's not going to work on Neko and it's not going to work on me. You're pathetic."
Ah, there's that smile of yours again.
.
.
Who's pathetic?!
It's bad enough that Mitsuki thinks that.... and that's understandable. But Ryuhei has absolutely no grievances with you.
Fuck. He angrily adjusts his pillow, hoping to take out some of his frustrations, allowing his temper to simmer down and for his brain to stop buzzing.
It doesn't work.
As he lies awake, he realises he can't remember the last time he thought about anyone else's opinion other than Mitsuki's.
.
.
"Didn't sleep well?"
Ryuhei sips his coffee, narrowing his bloodshot eyes over the top of his cup and flips you off with his other hand.
"Nomen," strutting over, your hand covers his middle finger and pushes it back down, "Behave please, we're at work."
You turn on your heel, flicking your hair in his face and purposely knocking at his coffee.
His grip loosens.
The cup, still nearly full, falls. Brown liquid spills down his suit, staining his white shirt and mustard tie.
"Oops, sorry!" You smile, baring your fangs and blowing him a patronising kiss.
Ryuhei should be annoyed, should be bristling and hostile.
But, the kiss lands and embeds itself in his mind.

Summer favorites 2022!
------------------------------------------
GREETINGS
------------------------------------------
July 08 / 2022
Hello,
Slowly working on a lot of things, I was really exhausted from starting my new job so early in the morning..I have to wake up at 5:30 am and I start from 7am to 2:30 pm. waking up this early is still hard on me as a person who is tired all the time. So needless to say all I’ve been doing in my free time is basically catching up on sleep which is why I’ve been MIA for a month.
I am currently working on a few things but none of which is finished yet, but hopefully I can get my lazy ass out of this misery and finish something soon.
On that note there are a lot of series that have been on hiatus that are coming back so I could update you on those as soon as some of the English translations have been out. I have a few titles this month that i have seen for a while but have not tried them out till now, and I was surprised that I enjoyed reading them so far.
I hope you enjoy the recommendations for this month!
                                          Happy reading!
Sheena
Tumblr media
Recap:
I’m just going to put up the ongoing list only. I also eliminated some titles because they are now completed or I dropped them for now. Fair warning, a lot of trash talking in this section but what do you expect from someone who has read so many of these stories, these are all my opinions only and if you can’t take people slandering your favorite character, skip this section all together because I won’t apologize for a character’s trashy behavior or excuse them.
Ongoing  
Liveta
Pearl boy (hiatus)
Turn off the camera
Semantic error
The third ending
Secret relationships
Kings Maker (S2)
One night mate
Night fragments
Love is a fantasy
The pizza delivery man and the gold palace
Updates on ongoing titles:
Just looking at the list getting smaller...aww, most of them are completed now, it makes me happy that I have talked about them for so long and seeing how their stories come to an end is really nice.
Love is a fantasy/Love is an illusion –the queen:
I know I just recently recommended this, so this is more of a rant than an update, I’ve just seen people make comments on dogyeom’s promiscuous behavior and say that she’s always stressing out seungha and he’s better off with the other dude...
Okay firstly, unlike love is an illusion, this isn’t BL/yaoi...so these yaoi fan girls need to calm their asses, and as well as dogyeom is a single woman, they aren’t together yet, so at this point she can sleep with whoever she wants to. People are trying to make is sound like she’s trash because she’s seeing other people and stressing out seungha, when in fact that their relationship is like this way because they both aren’t upfront about their feelings, so neither of them think they are interested in each other.
Instead people are really pushing for the other dude to be their favorite, and I’m like...why?
He is not interesting at all, he has zero personality and I’m just wondering what you are all seeing ?  if he had a personality maybe I can see where you are all coming from, but all I’m getting from these comments is that you like him cause he’s a “guy” and you want this to fit your BL narrative, just because dogyeom’s a woman she deserves all the slander for being promiscuous when many BL protagonists does the same thing and is not called out for it...omg...what the actual f*ck is up with that? What are you on about?
Just because he’s nice doesn’t mean anything...this is basic human etiquette. Dogyeom does the same thing and also respects seungha. I just don’t understand why this is even an argument. I’m just reading this trying to figure out why she’s getting so much hate when she is really good female protagonist in my opinion.
Also a point I’d like to make is that people think he’s hot and I’m like..he looks homeless...So he has no personality nor looks going for him, I have nothing to say in his defense. 
Tumblr media
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to some spicy reads (21+)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dangerous convenient store:
Tumblr media
“Yeo Eui Joon, who works at a convenience store frequented by gangsters, wants to quit as soon as possible because of the dangerous work environment. However, he’s stopped by the pay that’s 1.2x more than other stores! So, Eui Joon, who needs every penny he can get, overlooks the danger and continues working there. Then one day, Bum Geon Woo, who looks more like a gangster than any other gangsters shows up. And as soon as he appears, the other gangsters simmer down…Will Eui Joon be able to safely continue working at this convenience store?”
Okay, I’m probably the last person to read this manhwa, it has been on everyone’s timeline if you follow people that read bl stories on twitter and I have seen it so many times but never thought of actually trying to read it. Again...because bl fangirls like to hype up something and it gets popular and when i try it out...it ends up in the trash list.lol. Never take recommendations from people, who hype up a manga series, you need to see for yourself whether it’s for you. Hopefully the ones I talk about help you through some of that.lol.
Anyways, it is about a college boy paying living on his own after his brother was in an accident and he had to pay for his medical bills while still paying for school to finish his education, but he works the night shift of a convenient store that has been frequent by gangsters at night/ as well as some rude ass customers and that’s why before people don’t want to be scheduled during that time...perfectly understandable.
But euijoon needed the money so he accepted the offer and really had to deal with dumb customers, if you have worked service jobs back then like me or is currently working a t one now...you will understand what i mean by those types of customers....
Except they are all gangsters, which is even worse because you don’t know what will happen. So euijoon was working his night shift and a bunch of tardy gangsters went in and tried to steal and harass him,  he was the only one working so he was contemplating whether to call for help when another man behind the gangster customer shoved the guy out of the way and really asserted dominance so to speak and made the gangster guy back off. Euijoon though the guy who saved him look really intimidating and quickly rang up his order, which was always cigs / alcohol ...or condoms.lol. Euijoon had an underclassman he had an unrequited crush on, but that didn’t stop him from imagining scenarios of this man that walked into his life buying the biggest sized condoms and how he would be in bed...lmao. as you do. Euijoon addresses him as “ajusshi” which you address a male that is older than you in korea, After wards the man geon woo, or “ ah- juicy”  as people him, visits the convenient store at the same time every day when euijoon was working and there were small interactions between them and you can tell that he was interested in euijoon  since he asks about his school life and daily activities. Lol. It was really cute.  But going back to the dude that euijoon had a crush on, he was acting really friendly towards euijoon when he already had a girlfriend, he even tried to make moves on him, which made euijoon uncomfortable since he had already confessed his feelings and got rejected. Euijoon lives alone at this apartment complex and guess who lives next door to him? ....you guessed it “ ajussh...ah juicy..” he came out of his apartment the same time as euijoon and saw that the other dude was going in for a kiss with euijoon and was caught off guard, now that he exposed his sexuality to this random stranger who frequents his work place.
After the crush guy was forced to leave by euijoon, ajusshi and euijoon talked for a bit and euijoon despite knowing that ajusshi is a man with few words listened to him complain about his love problems without any judgement, this made him feel comfortable being around him. After trying to avoid his crush and getting harassed at the convenient store for not doing his job right, he was on the verge of tears when he saw ajusshi, he started to cry and talk about the things that happened, ajusshi saw the wound on his cheek from being slapped by a customer and started to caress his face ...and um make out with him lol. Real smooth...what was that saying, if you want to get over someone get underneath someone else?
He asked if euijoon was uncomfortable and euijoon liked the kiss and then ajusshi suggested to forget about the other dude they should sleep together, and they agreed to do it once, and let’s just say once was not enough for the both of them as they became more involved with each others’ lives and started catching feelings. Euijoon despite knowing ajusshi is a nice and honest person that is also part of the gangster society and was unsure about seeing someone that can potentially be involved with illegal acts.
So he was reluctant to be formally in a relationship with him, ajusshi liked euijoon enough to pursue him and wait for him till he is able to comfortably date him. That’s so sweet, what I like about this story is although ajusshi is not the type of character that would attract me...I do understand why people like him, he always puts euijoon first before thinking of anything else and will accept the outcome even if euijoon decides to date another person. Lol. That is maturity at its finest and you don’t get this in BL....many guys can’t take no for an answer, much like real life...
Euijoon later met chahyun who was the son of the company in which ajusshi works for and tells euijoon that he can’t see geon woo dating a person like him at first, but as they began to know each other, he understood why ajusshi liked euijoon, this was a time when ajusshi was doing some shady business and actually got hurt and has not contact euijoon for a while, but decided to see him when he was able to move out being hospitalized. Euijoon confessed that he tried so hard not to have feelings for ajusshi, but he made him feel loved and special and for the first time, they were on the same page and “made love” very intimately...like really intimate, like I shouldn’t be here...lol.
Later on in the story and near the end of season two, you get to see the complicated feeling emerge as ajusshi and chahyun was involved in a incident that made it sound like chahyun was killed and this made euijoon realize that he can’t handle all the secrecy and became afraid of ajusshi when they were meeting after a while of not contacting each other. Euijoon almost hurt himself to get ajusshi away from him and this hurt them both. Season two ended with euijoon still having feelings of regret after not being able to contact ajusshi by any means ( he’s moved away and changed his number) and it made it seem like the man didn’t exist.  I know this sounds terrible...but season 3 just started so i will end it here.
All and all  better than what i imagined, Euijoon is an interesting character, he may seem spineless and timid to some people but he’s acting like any normal person would, i honestly feel bad that he is treated so badly and he never really retaliated and these offenders get off easily. But I guess it means you like the character and you want better things to happen for them.lol. I hope you enjoyed this, I’m sure some of you have already read this but if you have not, it maybe something you might like.
The Foul:
Tumblr media
“After the death of his father, Joo Hawon is left with his father’s astronomical debt in the foreign land of Macau. With no future in sight, Hawon works as a casino dealer, barely getting by each day. One day, a mysterious man, Kwon Taeha, shows interest in him.
“Now then, let’s have some fun, shall we?”
Hawon agrees, believing that they will be spending their time together in a more frivolous and light way. However, Taeha approached Hawon with both Hawon’s father and his legacy in mind, which, unexpectedly, Hawon has pretended not to know about his entire life.
Hawon is faced with this stranger who claims that if Hawon accepts the proposal, Hawon will be freed from the debt that is weighing down on him.
He has no choice but to accept the convincing proposal, however Kwon Taeha keeps acting differently when Hawon is the only one around. Hawon finds it annoying at first, but then he starts to get confused, because it seems like he’s growing attracted to the man who has offered him the hand of mercy without any obvious reason…”
Maybe this is a poorly aged thing, but this manhwa reminds me a lot of death note, not the context but the way that the characters interact is really witty and intelligent, this is probably how the people who ship light and L would write their fanfic.lol.
So it is about a boy who was raised in a high society, but because of an event that occurred, his father had died and left him with a debt to repay, but this boy works as a casino dealer to pay off his debt and barely had enough money left for living expenses, he was informed by his boss that an important aristocrat was going to be showing up and apparently it was this man that had cleaned up the casino by winning all the games, so it was his job as a “hidden dealer” to throw him off without getting caught. Hidden dealers have these lenses that can let you see the customer’s cards and make their move based on that knowledge, but if anyone were to find out then the casino would go under and hawon was in no position to this job. His table was apparently the only one that was able to get certain customers to come back and play only to lose to him, so he was really well known among st the casino players. Kwon taeha was the said customer that the boss had warned him about and he immediately knew from the way that the man played his cards. This manhwa is really intricate in explain in card game rules and it’s really dialogue heavy which you really need to pay close attention to or you won’t get it. But the interaction between hawon and taeha was like and cat and mouse game in which they were trying to beat each other from one game to another and matching each other’s wits.
After their first interaction at the casino taeha had become interested in hawon and how he plays, and i guess found out more about him by buying his information from another guy, i forgot this guy’s name so let’s call him “drug dealer”. Hawon had a roommate who I’m still confused about in terms of their relationship to each other, since they aren’t romantically involved but they help each other relieve themselves when sexually frustrated, by using hand jobs...this is so weird.lol.
Anyways, the roommate also has a debt and they had met when they were children and had been together since just helping each other out, they were going to run away together once their debt is cleared and start a seaweed farm together. But taeha went to visit hawon and offered him a proposition to work for him on his ship. He will work as a dealer for 2 years and his debt will be personally cleared by taeha, who already offered to pay up half of it if he agrees. Seems too good to be true but what are you supposed to do when you need the money, even if he was skeptically hawon wanted to get out of this life and so he agreed. Hawon had to meet the lawyer to sign papers and apparently get a microchip embedded in him so he doesn’t run off with the money. Hawon was surprised at how easily the debt that seemed endless and spent his life paying off was almost cleared in an instant, this made him feel relived and he had not felt that for a very long time.
The scene I personally liked was when taeha came to visit hawon the day after they talked about the proposition and that day had been raining hard and he was afraid that hawon would have gotten sick, so he bought him meds and supplies that he might need to take care of his health, hawon had a way with words and it made him seem like a defenseless person, but it was a way of flirting that he had used to gain something. Taeha was like “ should I accompany you on the day of departure?” and hawon was like, “ yes because I’m afraid I’ll be too scared” or something and taeha was shocked by his innocent face, hawon was basically like " got em..." cause others fall for the innocent act.  Taeha was later escorted out of hawon’s apartment he mouthed something and made hawon blush in embarrassment...and it was “ you almost got me...” lol. It was cute...and witty.
I like the interaction between the two have this weird sexual tension that is interesting. This is fairly new and I hope to read more of it soon and engage in this story more, it seems really interesting and I different from some of the ones I’ve read before, you can tell that there was a lot of thought being put into this with the plot and how the two main leads never put thier hands on each other yet. I’ll let you know more as updates but i’ll just stop here for now.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Trash segment (21+)
----------------------------------------------------------------
a.k.a the part of the series where I shit on your favorite manhwa/manga/webtoon etc. Joking but not really, you have been warned.
This is the new section where you’re going to find titles that I dropped and the reasons why I discontinued the series all together, fair warning if you triggered by people criticizing your favorite series then you may want to skip this section all together. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and not every series that is “popular” or well liked by others will be like by all...therefore if there is content that makes a person uncomfortable enough to stop the series, that is on them and please don’t judge them for their morals.
So to recap, the series that I mentioned dropping so far are
Love or Hate
Yours to claim
Wistful summer
Anti-p.t.
The sound of fire
Kiss damnation
Cherry blossoms after the winter
Chasing Mr. CEO
Who’s a sweet cheater?
Another sequence:
Tumblr media
“A genius actor Do Yeon-woo, whose every moment in his life is a method acting, and the two men who entered his scene. Seo Tae-hyuk, a movie director from the entertainment industry, and a sex partner who has been sharing for a long time, and Han Yoo-bin, a young but fateful idol from a dirt spoon, came to be like a romance movie.A new sequence of three begins...”
Lol, this summary sucks, but I guess so does the content of this story, it’s what it looks like, messy love triangle with a guy who can’t decide between the two guys when the choice is fairly obvious. This guy is s little different in a sense that he only wants to sleep with people and not have a formal relationship since he does not understand the concept of love.
But omg the black haired guy is so eww...I hate the way he acts, and of course he’s one of those rich entitled a*sholes so you know where this is going. I think what I hate the most this particular trope that happens a lot in BL and that is calling someone you are jealous of and having sex on the phone with the person you both share. It’s kind of like saying...this is what your missing, he’s with me now instead of you...it’s so f*cken childish, it always makes me laugh, if anyone does that to me, i’d just burst out laughing and hang up.lol.
But of course it gets to the other person and they are just both trying to get this dude to like either of them. I think he is leaning more towards the grey haird guy, yoobin, which I’d choose too cause he’s clearly the better option, but this whole story is like nothing i had not seen before, it has all the tropes that I hate, but if you like them feel free to read it.
It is truly trashy romance that I try to just avoid now, since I went through many years of reading stuff like this. Anyways, that’s all I have to say.
Tumblr media
Spy X family
Tumblr media
“The story follows a spy who has to "build a family" to execute a mission, not realizing that the girl he adopts as his daughter is a telepath, and the woman he agrees to be in a marriage with is a skilled assassin.”
So yeah, I also joined the population in their love of spy x family, it is really whole some and cute, I honestly thought anya would be one of those kid characters I’d hate, but she’s so freaken cute, she’s like a small little bean and I love her. I really like the actor for both yor and loid, I’ve talked about eguchi takuya as the voice i’d want to play dooshik if pearl boy was an anime, if you watched this and heard his voice you’d understand why. As for yor’s voice actress I’ve noticed she plays a lot of characters with the same look and I really like her voice, it’s really distinctive and calm, which is good since i think all Japanese voice actresses sound so similar to me. Lol. I would not be able to tell them apart to be honest.
I don’t have a favorite episode so far since all of them seem really good, so hopefully as the series gets animated i’ll be able to have distinctive scene I enjoyed.
I’m still in the process of watching it.  I really like the characters and how they try to become a family from just being a group of outcasts. I don’t think I need to say more, if you like romantic comedies and wholesome family dynamics, this is the one for you.
And can we just talk about anya’s smug face...
Tumblr media
this is the face i make when my supervisor expects me to know something and I don’t so i’m faking it.  lol. I am well acquainted with this face.
Tumblr media
BSB playlist, in prep for the concert in august, my friend and I have been trying to listen to their new songs but nothing beats the 90’s hits in my opinion.lol.
----------------------------------------------------------------

Hi I saw you was in need of ideas 😁 and I saw you like ragbros (like me) how about hc (platonic)where they have a little sister (like 18-19year old) who is also adopted like kaeya and is also traumatized before she came to dawn winery and she is more traumatized. She is also super powerful like she is a mage (like in historical manhwa) and has electro vision is also a member of knights of favonis. Sorry I went for too much details 😅
If you don't write platonic hc, how about hurt to comfort fic of diluc/ kaeya/Zhongli where the reader thinks he ib love with someone else (like jean for diluc rosaria for kaeya guzhiong for Zhongli).
Sorry for long ask. Take care 😘
A/n: sadly I'm not very good at platonic stuff, hope u like this oneshot tho!
Included: Kaeya, gn reader, Rosaria
Cw/s: mentions of drinking, angst, possibly ooc, I suck at writing angst
Tumblr media
Kaeya had always been passionate about the things he loves. Though, recently everything has been going much worse than before, it's like his path throughout life has become rocky, rather than ups and downs, it has really been down these past few days. He went out drinking more and more, constantly visiting his brother's tavern, chugging down beer down his throat hoping to wash down his foul feeling.
You understand what was Kaeya's feeling and you always have, you gave him time, time to think carefully and to rest his mind and body. Though you never expected it to come to this, you never expected it to become this bad; you felt sorry for him.
You tried to talk to him about it to at least help ease some of his foul feelings yet every time you do he just tells you
"I'm fine"
"I'm okay by myself"
"There's no need"
In such a tired tone, he always pushes you away. Why? Why didn't he want your help? Maybe he just wanted some time... But didn't you already give him a week? All these thoughts and questions run through your head all at the same time it's giving you a headache.
During his time at the tavern, he has encountered Rosaria multiple times in a row and yes, you have witnessed some of those times and nothing bad seems to be happening. After all those encounters with each other, Rosaria made the first move; starting the conversation first.
He knew Rosaria, a close friend of that he hasn't connected to in a long while.
"Hey, you alright?" Rosaria asks.
She looked down at the blue haired knight that had his head laying on the table, beer in hand.
"Hmm... no" Kaeya responds, his words coming out wobbly due to the alcohol.
Chats between Rosaria and Kaeya was pretty constant again, sharing small talk whenever they passed each other, talking during breaks... Of course you took notice and didn't seem to mind, I mean, they're friends after all. And they haven't talked to each other for a while so it's understandable.
It's been weeks and kaeya has started to feel better, more upright and was coming back to his usual smug personality. You were happy, proud even, but you felt a little... what do you call it? Jealous? No, that can't be right. You? Jealous of who?
Maybe it's because it was Rosaria that helped Kaeya more than you did, it's great that she helped but during those times, why did Kaeya only talk to Rosaria about it? Why not you? He always pushes you away but why not to Rosaria either? Is there something special about her? Questions are running through your mind again.
He's been out of the house recently too, often meeting up with Rosaria. At this point, you think he sees her more than you, could it be that he fell out of love? Too many questions and possibilities are in your mind, overthinking every little thing.
You decided to confront him during dinner.
"Kaeya.. is there something wrong?" You ask worryingly.
"Nothing's wrong. Why?" Kaya responds.
"It's just that uhm... You've been.. I don't know, distant?" You furrow your brows slightly as you speak.
"Distant, how?" Kaeya tilts his head.
You take a deep breath thinking about saying it or not.
"Do you not love me anymore?" You finally asked.
"What? Of course I love you, why did you think that?" Kaeya replies.
"You've been hanging out with Rosaria a lot too..." You fidget with your fingers.
"Ahh, I see now" He chuckled.
"Wanna know why?" Kaeya smiles.
You nod in reply, desperate for answers. You watched as he got up towards the calendar and pointed out your anniversary and.. oh it's today. Wait, it's today?
Kaeya goes to a cabinet and pulls out two boxes wrapped delicately, each of different colors with a ribbon wrapped around it like a bow, a letter on top of the two boxes.
"What's this?" You ask, inspecting the box.
"I wanted to make up for all the things you did for me" Kaeya smiles softly.
The letter contained 3 paragraphs about his undying love for you, alongside a kiss mark on the bottom.
"I needed some help so I went to Rosaria" He explains.
You open the boxes, careful not to damage it. The 1st box contains a silver/gold (what color you want) necklace below a tulip, the necklace has your birthstone as it's pendant, shaped into a heart, your name and Kaeya's was faintly sketched onto the back of the pendant.
2nd box contained earrings that matched the necklace, right below a rose.
"Wow... I.." You were left utterly speechless.
Now you were the one feeling guilty, especially since it's your anniversary and you don't have nothing for him
"Don't worry about your gift, you being here is enough" Kaeya brings you into a tight, warm embrace.

MY SEPTEMBER READS. 💓
It’s been a productive month of reading for me, limited to manhua/manhwas. most of these are still ongoing so that may stop you from wanting to pick it up.
Tumblr media
previous reads & recs : ( there are ofc novels, manhua/manhwas i have read that are not included here but enjoyed, for example — tgcf. )
Q&A Rec answered July 2021 //Recent Reads Series: Part 1 // Part 2 // Part 3 // Part 4 // Part 5 // Part 6 // November 2022 // January - March 2023 // April - August 2023
Solo novel recs: Cherry Blossoms Upon a Wintry Sword // The Moon is Coming to Me
Traces of the Sun ( 2 seasons completed, Ongoing )
One of my favorites and the photo I used for this entire post. The best thing here is that the MC is a necromancer in a sense, cause his power is restoration. The primary use if of course to restore and fix his environment like building etc but he somehow did the “forbidden” application of it which is to restore dead humans. This is set in the future and has that scifi kind of feel cause humans have “powers” and there are doorways that open — which teams have to complete to “win”. If you like that kind of premise then you will enjoy this. It reminded me of The Earth is Online so I had no problem getting into the plot, but if it’s your first time — it might be confusing.
The ML ( Hyeon ) is a red flag kind of guy and makes a deal with the MC ( Yiseon ) at the start of the story. It can be pretty dark & gloomy at times but hang in there. The quests are really exciting and the team dynamic is good <3 Their romance is kinda slow burn and i live for how Hyeon “changes” because of Yiseon. I’m really hoping for a happy ending!
The Promise ( 41 chapters completed )
I WANT MORE. I NEED. I understand some projects are only allowed upto a certain number of chapters but this was too good and could use more chapters or even side stories. I need to see An Nuo happy and enjoying the real world! 😭😭😭😭
Anyway, I picked this up cause I wanted another scifi/dystopian type of story after reading TOTS. This has that same trope. People with powers, and this time MC is someone who has a low level to no power, spending his time at an underground laboratory that treats humans as lab rats. Then comes the ML, someone from the “outside world” who needs to awaken his other power so he decides to go to the lab. They meet and well, that’s where the story starts.
If you can’t tell, I enjoyed this story so much!!!! The MC is the best. An Nuo <3 he’s so smart and I feel for him cause he was born in the lab, so he’s never seen the real world. He doesn’t know what a blue sky even looks like. As a reader, I was so invested for him to succeed and gain his freedom after 18 years of being a prisoner. Then you have ML, AHHHHHH!!!! He starts off as an asshole but then becomes so devoted so he’s forgiven. 😂😂😂😂
I’m looking for stories that are similar to this, so if you know one, let me know. ^^
Again ( 60 chapters completed ; ongoing side stories )
Regression. Entertainment Industry Setting. My weakness, so there’s no way i wouldn’t like it. But even tho it’s a trope I like, it’s still exceptional! Even if you don’t like this trope, it’s a solid story.
So you have the MC Han Nokyoung, who is an A list celebrity with a foul attitude. A scandal happens and he dies — then wakes up years before the incident so he decides to change things to have a better ending. He becomes entangled with Kang Junil in his “new” life — the same person who caused his scandal/downfall.
I like how the story flowed, and how the MC was portrayed as the scumbag he was in the past. There was no excuses, he was foul and did things that harmed people. So he has to atone. He has to change things if he wants to have a better future. There were also parts that I was scared that things will not change even if he chooses a different direction. The MC & ML romance too! AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! I love them! They are destined to be together. <3 KANG JUNIL BEING POSSESSIVE IS MY FAVE!
SKETCH ( Ongoing, Season 1 completed )
thank you for @ourbeloved1011 for recommending this!
They are precious! The art is beautiful! 💟
Tumblr media
Modern story with two people trying to find their way into a relationship. The MC (Yikyung) is a smol bean that we must protecc! He loves too much and is the kind of person the ML (Joobin) just needs. I have to say it’s one of my comfort stories. It’s sweet. Funny and the smut is very hot without being vulgar. I swear, you can have 3 chapters of smut and it’s glorious!!!!
The age gap is also delicious. Even if it’s ongoing, I encourage you to read it. 🤍
HEARTHROB/ High Pulse ( Ongoing 24 chapters )
I usually don’t pick up stuff that’s just 20+++ chapters cause I think it’s too early to get a hang of the story or i would want more and have nothing. However I was intrigued, since it’s High School setting and Omegaverse.
Shut up. They are so cute! There is something about first loves & young love that gets me! It’s not all fluff and cute — i just wanna wrap them in a warm blanket and let them be happy. Anyway, in this setting, the MC/ML are turning 18 and that’s the time that they will be differentiated into Alpha/Omega or not. ML is expected to be an Alpha, and MC into an Omega. The MC has a heart condition, hence the title.
It’s just sweet. Sometimes i need a story that will make me squee!
LOOK AT THEM <3
Tumblr media
( one of my favorite parts of the story 🤣🤣🤣 )
Love Meter 100 % ( 7 chapters completed )
A short and hilarious read!!!! MC is addicted to playing a RPG that is BL themed. He has a favorite character that he likes and one day, meets someone who looks exactly like that.
Don’t expect a ground breaking story. The plot twist is very nice tho.
Reunion ( Season 1 Completed ; Ongoing )
This story should be adapted into an Anime or a TV series cause it’s that good. The story telling is A +. If you love a non linear narrative and unreliable narrator then this is for you. My god. The mystery. The heart ache. The yearning. I’m freakin clenching my fists while reading it cause i can feel everything. Even how the panels are drawn adds to the story. Definitely up there as one of my top reads of the year.
the art style is gorgeous. the conflict is — AAAAHHHH!!! I can’t say too much to not spoil anyone reading this but if you read the summary, you’ll get an idea of what’s going on. MC pretended to be someone and had a relationship with the ML. Things happen, ML comes back and they meet each other but he (ML) forgot what happened (or did he????) and well… we try to uncover what really took place that summer and how they can have their happy ending this time.
Tumblr media
This is a treat to experience. As a reader, you have to try and piece things together. You also can’t trust their recollections of what happened yet.
If there is 1 story you have to read in this post, let it be this one. It needs more audience!
Blood and Love ( Ongoing ; Chapter 20 )
The combination of someone who is fascinated with vampires + is a sunshine boy meets an actual vampire premise. Add that with uncensored smut. I really enjoyed it for what it is and i got so much secondhand embarrassment from the MC being such a simp 😂😂😂
No Moral ( Season 1 completed ; Ongoing )
I chose this because it’s set in a law firm — ML being a partner & big shot and MC a new junior associate. I did enjoy reading First Class Lawyer before so i thought to give it a chance, I made the right decision. 💕
It’s plot heavy and there are technical words but it didn’t turn me off. The cases are also interesting and this honestly makes me want to pick up the novel cause i wanna know what happens next. The hints of potential romance between them is 💓 and I hope that they get to a good place together.
Tumblr media
I really like the character of the ML. Seheon Kang. He’s such a bitch. He reminds me of “Harvey” from the tv series Suits, all the attitude but none of the vices & women. He has family issues and will do everything to win. He may come off as stone-cold but he actually cares in his own way. Most of the comments I read about him, especially early on in the chapters is that he’s an asshole and they hate him. But it’s him. That’s how he is. I guess most people are going into this thinking it’s a “romance” and the ML should be this gentle dude. Well, “No Moral” is so much more than a romance. Even if this wasn’t a “BL” i would still read it for what it is. I love seeing him slowly lose his walls because of the MC tho. All I want for him is to have his freedom and get the taste of “someone” being on his side and will never leave him.
As for the MC, Yunshin, he’s definitely and Idealist. This is why he often gets into conflict with the ML. He’s young and usually does pro-bono cases ; He believes that the law always sides with the “innocent”. Tho he may come off as naive sometimes, I still that fight in him, especially when he does his best to pass Seheon’s tests!
I am excited for where this story will go ♥️
Everyday I want to be Number 1 ( till Chapter 23, Ongoing )
The trope of MC being the second place all the time and he wants to beat the ML who is always first place in academics and everything else. Then they get close and sparks fly ✨ I have read novels and other Manhuas like this but this one still got me.
A feel good read. Not sure if i’m gonna continue but I liked what i read so far.
Someone like you ( Season 1 completed ; Ongoing )
It’s sad and depressing. LOL. Idk why I picked it up but so far, I can’t help but feel frustrated with what’s happening. Some people who read this compared it to “Reunion” because they had a shared past and got separated. Also the gaps in ML’s memory regarding the MC. Also the MC thinking that their relationship is doomed. However, I think what’s lacking here is there is no “hope”, even if they communicate well, i feel like they keep going back to step 1. I understand why but it’s not making me want to continue on to the next seasons.
The art is very pretty tho ^^
Merry Marbling ( Chapter 33 ; ongoing )
First of all, everything is so pretty ✨ How can I resist? All panels are a treat!!!!
Tumblr media
I was here mainly for the art, but I didn’t expect to get invested in the story that much. It may look like a superficial high school / slice of life kind of story but it’s so much more than that. Ian ( black hair ) is Mister Perfect. He is known as the “Angel” of their area and he literally can’t do no wrong — everyone likes him. Enter the new student Yugun, my dear sickly-angry-kitten son 😂😂😂 He doesn’t know Ian’s “history” & doesn’t get the hype about him. The story flows on their journey of being strangers to enemies to friends to lovers. 💕
I’m loving their character growth. Ian who does his best to please his mom and be the “perfect son” to being able to express himself and not think too much about what people will say. I really feel sorry for him, cause he’s a kid — he is allowed to make mistakes. The instances where he cries and almost has breakdowns when he does something wrong is not right. And it’s Yugun who calls him out on it, also encourages him to let loose sometimes. Yugun— who is closed off starts believing that he can have people to depend on, especially Ian. I really love Yugun 😂 He is chaotic. Don’t let the cute face fool you. He is a savage.
It’s also a really funny read. ^^ + the side characters are the type who add to the story, especially Mi Rye!
Follow your Heart ( completed )
Hello! Look at how beautiful they are! I am weak. Very weak. An upright taoist cultivator who lives high up in the mountains and a demonic cultivator that owns the Ghost Valley. My favorite trope! 😍😍😍 Also Mister Demonic Cultivator waited for his love to come back after 100 years. I mean…. This Manhua is a combination of all my favorite things!
Tumblr media
The pairing reminds me so much of Hua Cheng x Xie Lian 😭😭😭😭 I wish there were more chapters, cause it’s only 53 but part of me thinks they already told the story they have to and there is no use in prolonging it.
Anyway, the story is not that deep, compared to other plots in the same genre. You only have to know a few people and their goal is clear. If you’ve read or even watched stories with Cultivation World as the backdrop, it’s easy to get confused and there are a couple of subplots, you won’t have that problem with FYH. Ye Zigue needs to find his body and transfer his soul core in order to live again, also find out the truth about what happened years ago. The best part for me tho is the ML. Jiang Shu. 💕 He has that whole Hua Cheng thing going on for him. AHHHHHHH!!!!! He is perfect. Exactly the type of ML I prefer reading about. I usually prefer modern manhua/manhwa setting but decided to give this a go cause it’s already completed, so happy that I made that decision <3
Civilian A ( Chapter 24 ; Ongoing )
I should stop picking up stories that are only 24+ chapters but I can’t help myself. Esper/Guide trope which I haven’t really been reading that much of. I think it’s the same as Sentinel/Guide. && the art is beautiful so….
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The pairing is Gold! Especially the ML, Yool, who is a scary S+ Esper who everyone avoids but for some reason is a puppy to our MC. There is obviously some backstory here, early on in the chapters, we are given the impression that they knew each other when they were young. ML did something along the way to keep MC safe and forget him. I recommend that people wait this out, the recent chapters are just getting exciting. Tho romance is a big part of the story, there is also a backdrop of politics and some commentary on the society. Definitely one that I will be waiting on every week to update. 💜
==============
BONUS: Other books ( physical ) I have finished this Month. <3
I’ve been wanting to try “before the coffee gets cold” trilogy and decided why the hell not. It’s definitely my kind of read. It’s not a very long book and you have 4 “short stories” in each but they are connected at some point. The concept of time travel here is unique ( you can only go to the past or future but you have to be seated in a particular chair. you can’t get up from your spot. nothing will change in the past or future no matter what you do or say. you can only see people who have been in the cafe too. your time is up when the coffee gets cold. ) and the stories will affect you. Reading this makes me want to visit this cafe lol to experience it. ☕️ only finished book 1 & 2, i’m saving the 3rd for October.
Tumblr media
Jujutsu Kaisen 0. I rewatched the movie for the nth time so I picked up the manga too. I’ve also been collecting the official volumes and will get to that next. ^^ and I’m a Yuuta Simp so… 🤷🏻‍♀️
Kimetsu no Yaiba Volume 1-5. Same with JJK, i’m getting the volumes so reading em too. A perfect read to de stress after work.
Dune - I’ve always wanted to read this book cause as a sci fi fan, everyone said this is one of the best, but that made me so intimidated by it that i didn’t pick it up for years. and the fact that the copies i see are the really small and thick ones. But I watched the film last year and really enjoyed it, even re watching it so that’s when I knew i could “handle” it. I enjoyed every bit of it and I can’t wait to see the scenes come to life in the film this November ^^ I’m not planning on continuing on with the other books tho, I’m fine with just this one.
I have to say it’s been a really good reading month for me and I hope to maintain my momentum in the next couple of months. Not putting too much pressure on myself tho, but I hope I get to discover more enjoyable reads. ^^

Hmm... you know how those historical/fantasy/romance manhwas tend to have hunting tournaments/parties among royalty + nobilities where the characters show off their kills via killing monsters?
Well, I think one of the ways Intacia and the Coastal Empire could close the gaps between them is to do something similar! Host an annual hunting competition! They could alternate each year and all that.
Imagine the possibilities!
Castin could learn more about the Baroness' life and friends from the Empire and we could also learn a bit more about the Baroness' background as well. He, his warriors, and some of the Intacian nobilities finally have a common ground and work together to take down the soldiers and Imperial nobilities in a friendly game. Meanwhile, the Baroness acts as a mediator between the Imperial noble ladies and those from Intacia. Verbal barbs and insults will be thrown around the table, laced in simperings. Each woman who has a husband out there in the forest is bragging about how she'll get the most kill.
In the background, Rhett and his Queen Ascendant will sit on thrones as they observe the hunt. Beside the couple? The Emperor and Empress of the Coastal Empire + a sulking Prince Desmond. He wanted to join in the hunt and see for himself just how strong Commander Hammer really is, but his parents told him to sit this one out in case there was foul play.
And you know what usually comes after a hunting party? A royal ball for high society!
Pretty ballrooms! Beautiful dresses! Fancy food & drinks! People dancing to waltzs! And the best of all? Schemes and intrigues happening on balconies and behind marbled pillars!
Now I'm in the mood to write a oneshot about this 👏🏼

been reading a lot of manhwas lately with villainess reincarnation as a trope, and like honestly....I have an idea hehe
So it's a bit of a crack AU, but here it is:
Clemensia lives a full life - survives the second rebellion, and she passes in her sleep. No foul play. But when she wakes up, she's 18 again. The 10th Hunger Games haven't started yet. But once she realizes that this isn't some sort of dream or even a personal hell, she realizes she has another shot at changing things
A lot of this is right now is just random blurbs, but I'm thinking of things like:
The first person is Sejanus - newly reincarnated Clemensia wonders if she's in some sort of afterlife. Or if she's hallucinating. And seeing Arachne next really makes her consider things.
Clemmie makes an attempt of a list of what to do once she realizes that this isn't a fever dream of some sort
Like a better mentor/tribute relationship with Reaper - or at least she attempts at one more than she did in her past life
Coriolanus never becomes that twisted. (It's on her list of things to get to)
more things on her list: For Arachne to live. / Sejanus too. / Reaper./ not getting bit by the snakes

THE LOYAL MAID RESCUED FROM THE SLUMS. If someone new had step foot inside your home, the thought that comes to mind when seeing her is a pleasant ambience and her balletic movements. However, visitors be warned, should their demeanor show foulness against Noelle’s master, they will be met with The Unforged.
Perfection is a must, if not then shame would be brought upon your family name – it would affect you. And so, it is a never-ending cycle of learning, memorizing, and training.
Her most treasured memory was of you offering your hand to her, an orphan abandoned in the streets, and your innocent smile. This resulted with both of you growing up together – attached at the hip and rarely seen apart. Noelle swore an oath to protect you, even at the cost of her own life. The vigor had returned to her for she had found her purpose in life, and what bigger purpose did she need besides becoming your most trusted servant? Even if you had found love that was not with her, she would still offer you her heart, and watch as you give yours to another.
Noelle was very much aware of her position. Even as your parents decided to marry you off to an earl – someone of much higher status than your family – she never spoke of her budding feelings. Until you snuck into her room late at night and begged to run away together. Who was she to refuse? When her dreams are full of living a life with you, only to meet the dull gray of her quarter’s ceiling.
Tumblr media
THE RUMORED BARBARIC DUCHESS OF THE NORTH. Eula Lawrence was named a hero, but the people whispered fearfully, of the monster that ravaged the northern lands. She had no mercy, they said. Their fear was deep-rooted from the power that the Lawrence family held – known for birthing powerful sword masters. So, it caused an uproar when the townsfolk heard that the young child of a baron couple proposed to such a person.
You’ve heard the whispers – monster, murderer, even as far as calling her death itself. It did not deter you in offering marriage to Eula. You sought stability in the harsh social circles of high society, and a duchess could certainly give you that. However, you found out that it was all hearsay, as the duchess’ cheeks bloomed in a pink hue – mumbling about vengeance.
Her words were sharp, but she explained that it was due to her upbringing. A little shy in escorting you, a little scared of hurting you. So, you take the first step, you take her hand, and you sway to a slow dance in your developing relationship. Your marriage isn't perfect, but she tries — to see you shine, to see you smile, to see a future with you.

Jaekyung genuinely has one of the most foulish personality I have seen in the few manhwa’s I’ve read 😭 Seungho and Taejoo are red flags but at least they genuinely seem like someone you can hang out with! Taejoo being the most appropriate to say that about, but Jaekyung genuinely fucking sucks! He has a vile temper, he throws literal temper tantrums over people trying to celebrate HIS birthday, he’s an ungrateful turd, disrespectful and what good he does is overshadowed by his foulness!
If he does get his private matters leaked by someone from his team, it’s actually deserved like damn he was so foul when they wished him happy birthday! He beats the crap out of one for not letting him speak to him, like he’s shit on his shoes! Like I do wonder if the loyalty of his teams wavers, would he be shocked? Because yeah you shouldn’t be just saying Joo Jaekyung just saying!
