~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
tomorrow is a special day for you, it's the day you have been anticipating the most. you couldn't sleep the whole night because of the excitement for this day to come, your birthday. you weren't excited because it was your birthday, you were excited of what your boyfriend is planning for your day. however, when a day has passed and it's finally the day, you didn't expect your boyfriend to forget it.
kim sunoo (김선우)
it was night and you were already ready to sleep but when you went in the bedroom, you see your boyfriend smiling ear-to-ear looking at his phone.
"did something good happen??" you tried to peak at his phone but he immediately closed it and hugged you.
"YES but i can't tell you yet baby, it's going to be a surprise!! i will tell it to you tomorrow morning once you wake up."
there we go, what you wanted to hear before your bday starts. you thought that everything seems to be going fine and you were pretty much just glad your boyfriend didn't forget your bday. hearing sunoo, you were unable to sleep due to excitement to what could happen tomorrow in your bday. you've been thinking and wondering what could it be as you change positions on the bed non-stop. sunoo was still smiling and seeing you not being able to sleep he playfully rolled his eyes at you (still smiling), he knew you were excited but if he's going to be that honest he wasn't actually expecting you to be that excited. he saw you excited a lot of times and you weren't really acting the same but he shrugged it off and slept.
----- time skip -----
you woke up at 4am, you thought it was still night time so you checked the clock and saw the time. you couldn't believe you woke up at that time, oh wait let me repeat: you did believe you would wake up at that time because you're so excited and you couldn't wait for sunoo to surprise you. you tried going back to sleep but you just couldn't take your mind off about the "surprise", you were so curious, you were literally moving non-stop in the bed to the point you woke sunoo up.
"y/n, i know you're excited but please let me sleep. it's so early in the morning." he whined.
"can't you just do the surprise right here, i wouldn't be able to go back to sleep." you pouted.
sunoo who is half-asleep still managed to see you pout in the dark, he could never resist it so he sat up and said...
"I GOT TICKETS!"
"TICKETS TO WHAT OR WHERE?"
"ITALY, we're in first class too. oh, our flight is actually in 4 hours."
"WAIT WHAT?!"
hearing those last sentence made you panic, you ran to the cabinets and drawings to get packing. this whole thing wasn't supposed to be a surprise, sunoo just wanted to see how you would be if something like this happen. he likes to tease you every time but when you do it to him, you will regret your whole life.
midway packing, you were thinking how can sunoo possibly afford 2 first class tickets to italy so you decided to ask him.
"love, how did you afford the tickets?"
"it's not mine's but the company's."
"company? why would the company give you money to get tickets for something like this?"
"well obviously it's for work. i will model for milan fashion week this year, and i begged my manager to get you a ticket as well. isn't that great?" he smiled.
"oh." you were in utter shock finding out that it wasn't for your birthday but for his work, you thought it was sweet for him to beg his manager to get you a ticket as well but you were somehow disappointed. as you continued packing, a lot of thoughts are swarming in your mind. and, those thoughts just kept making you feel down. sunoo noticed how your mood suddenly changed, he thought that maybe you weren't happy due to the fact that you both are going to italy. he tried to ask you what was wrong but you were so down that you couldn't bother to reply so you gave him the silent treatment. sunoo doesn't like it when you ignore him. he would usually try to argue about it but seeing you down made him think if he did something wrong or what made you suddenly change your mood.
----- time skip -----
you both arrived in italy, you had to go out in different time because you were still trying to keep the relationship private since you both doesn't want issues to happen with your career. actually, everyone already knows sunoo is dating someone but they don't know that it's you. anyway, you went out of the airplane first without telling sunoo and that made him worried. he was looking you everywhere in the airplane plus he was a bit mad because you ignored him the whole flight. knowing him, he had a lot to share but you just weren't interested. sunoo's manager told him to go and leave now, he asked the flight attendants if there was any passenger left but there was none. the manager insisted to just call you and ask your whereabouts. sunoo gave in, and since he's a popular model a lot of paparazzi and fans that are waiting for him. no matter how many people were there he only focused on looking for you but there was just too many people that they had to leave immediately.
back to you, you are already in the hotel. already lying down the bed, watching the tv seeing sunoo just went out. when you saw sunoo on the tv, you had to turn it off. you were waiting for him to mention your bday the whole time but your expectations just got turned down, i guess. a few minutes later, sunoo arrived in the hotel. he was calling you non-stop and it looked like he was about to die when he couldn't see you anywhere. the manager volunteered himself to carry the luggages to his room so that sunoo can look for you. sunoo actually ran to his room but didn't see you there which made his heart drop, he was about to cry at this point.
he was about to go down using the elevator but then you went out of a room and he sees you, he ran to you and tried hugging you of course, but you immediately shut the door. he actually jumped when you closed the door because it was so loud, now he's just standing in front of the room, confused. he knocked and knocked but no answer. you feel bad for ignoring him but you just can't seem to talk to him at all. he was even shouting out of your room but his manager stopped him.
"sunoo, don't shout. the people might find out you are here."
"i dont care, i want to be with my girlfriend and talk to her."
"you should go to your room, i think shes just tired and went to sleep. you will be modeling tomorrow morning so you need to rest too."
sunoo was still being stubborn and tried to wait for you to come out but his manager managed to get him inside his room already.
----- time skip -----
it's the day for sunoo's modeling! normally, people would get nervous and excited for something like this but for sunoo, he wasn't even feeling anything at all except being worried. he's been thinking about last night. you were also unresponsive in the morning 'till now, hes at the site and getting ready while you went out to explore some shops. you tried to forget the fact sunoo just forgot about your bday which is why you went out to try and celebrate late. to your surprise while you were walking down the street, there was a huge crowd. well, guess who you saw
it was sunoo. for a second there, you forgot that you are supposed to be disappointed and mad at him but you got distracted by his handsomeness. like how can you get mad at this boy but you pulled yourself together and kept walking straight ahead but your dear boyfriend did not fail to notice you and shouted "y/n!". you were extremely terrified at that moment, you knew there were a lot of paparazzi and fans around and he just called you that. you were worried that someone might hurt you and suddenly will follow you around to ask questions about sunoo. thank gosh you were fast enough to think of a solution which is... to ignore him. everyone looked at your way but they didn't notice that it was you that sunoo was calling.
at this point, he got irritated of you. he didn't care about his career, he ran all the way to you and held your hand. you were shocked and before you even say anything, you both were already running. he dragged you to somewhere private.
he looked at you with an angry look and said "love, please talk to me. i miss you so much, it already has been 1 day since you ignored me. i want to know if i did or said something wrong. it hurts me that you don't even want to talk to me, i hate it when you do this."
"i...." you were to stunned to speak, this was the first time sunoo raised his voice to you. the first time you guys weren't in good terms or was it just you being so over dramatic that lead to this. you started crying, your back slowly slid the wall and sat. sunoo's heart dropped, he didn't want to make you cry. he didn't know what to do so he just hugged you "baby, no. im sorry, i didn't want to make you cry." you stopped crying and then you found this situation funny, you started laughing. dude, when i tell you, sunoo was so confused. he literally froze and started asking if this was a prank or some shit because it isn't funny.
"no, honey. i just find myself funny for crying for something like this..."
"you. you finally talked to me." he hugged you again but tightly this time as if you were going to disappear sooner or later. "now, tell me. why have you been acting that way all these time?"
you went silent again so sunoo sat beside you and changed the topic because he didn't want you to keep ignoring him, he already got your attention and he didn't want to risk it. you both had small talks and laughed at each other's jokes then you finally decided to tell him, you hesitated at first because it was embarrassing to say right now.
"sunoo, i..... i'm sorry for what i did yesterday and today. i wanted you to remember what was yesterday's occasion which is my bday but it seems like you forgot about it but still i shouldn't have acted that way and could've just mentioned it sooner. i was being stubborn, aren't?" you laughed and hid you face because you were so embarrassed. your face got red while you were talking. sunoo rolled his eyes and laughed at you "well, i'm sorry too for forgetting your bday which i can't believe that i did. anyway, my manager is probably looking for me now. love, is it alright if we celebrate your bday somewhere romantic later? im sorry that you didn't get to celebrate yesterday."
"yeah, you should probably go now. bye." sunoo stood and gave his hand to you. "answer my question, love. can we celebrate your lovely bday later?"
"ok. yes. yes, love." he felt relieved and smiled, he kissed you goodbye before running back to the site while you sat again and giggled like you just talked to your crush for the first time. you were wondering, however if what could've happened if you ran away from him earlier. i can answer to that, he would've probably argued with you.
yang jungwon (양정원)
you were so excited for tomorrow because it's your bday and especially because it's also your bf's day off. you can have all his attention to yourself for today not until he received a call.
"yoi, i received a call, i have this client who just hired me. heeseung was supposed to take the case alone but there was some problems that it needed about 2 people to take the case. unfortunately, there were no lawyers available for tomorrow so i had to take the job and help him." jungwon looked sad and so were you. you understood the situation immediately though, he's the best at his job.
the next day, you woke up first. you decided to cook breakfast for the both of you and wake up jungwon. "wonieee, wake up! you will be late for your job." you were about to leave the room but then he suddenly held you hand and pulled you onto the bed. he hugged you tightly and said "i don't want to get out of bed and leave you all alone here, i want to be with you for the whole day. wait, what about you? don't you have work as well?"
"oh uh, i took the day off today because i thought you'd also have your day off." he pouted and hugged you tightly.
"baby, please you're suffocating me. now, go and get out of bed. you'll be late."
----- time skip -----
soon, you got bored staying at your house. weirdly, your phone has been silent. it's a monday so everyone is obviously busy but your bday hasn't sent a happy bday message to you. he also didn't mention it earlier in the morning which made you think if he forgot about your bday now. you shook your head and thought it would be nice to visit him at the courtroom where his case would be held. you went in your car and went there.
when you arrived, there were only a few people there. you thought you arrived late but you asked and said that it'll start in a few minutes. shortly after, people have been entering the court room one-by-one and the judges also sat on their seats. you were looking for your boyfriend everywhere but looks like he still haven't arrived, you were about to sit but you bumped with someone.
"oh, sorry."
"wait, y/n??? baby, what are you doing here?"
"oh, hi! i was just bored at home so i decided to visit you here." you kissed him. he was about to talk but then his co-worker (atty. heeseung) said that they should go at their place now.
minutes later, the discussion started. you were sitting there not listening to what everyone's saying and you were just looking at him, adoring him. you forgot how handsome your boyfriend is. anyway, you realized that you completely forgot that it was your bday and you didn't want to celebrate it by sitting and listening to someone's case. you went to the mall to go buy some clothes and you were still hoping when will jungwon greet you a happy bday. you were already getting tired so you went straight home, you didn't even care id your bday remembers or not. you were simply tired already and wanted to sleep, and so you did.
----- time skip -----
as you were sleeping soundly, you felt a light tap on your shoulder. you opened your eyes slowly and saw your sister.
"oh gosh, you scared me. how did you get inside?"
"i have a spare key, remember?"
"oh, then what are you doing here? did something bad happened to you?"
"well...." she was looking down and she suddenly hugged you. "i'm sorry for busting out here, late at night but i really need your help." she looked at you, looking like she wanted to cry. you were alarmed at what she said so you asked "what kind of help?".
"m-my boyfriend has been abusing me and i escaped from him today. i can't do this anymore, i'm scared." hearing this made you so angry and just wanted to beat him up right there and then.
"chaewon, you should've told me sooner, i didn't even know you had a boyfriend but by any chance, did he follow you here?".
"no, he did text me though."
"i made his name in my contacts that in purpose because i was keeping our relationship a secret. i'm sorry, i should've told sooner." reading the texts made you scared as well but you were mad at him for beating your sister.
"chae, go stay here and lock the door, ill try and talk to your fucking boyfriend and beat him up if things go south, if ever that happens ill ask jungwon to be your lawyer and sue him."
"sis, wait, no. h-he doesn't know what you look like and you also don't know what he looks like either. i should come but ill just hide and call the police if something happens. i-ill text him so that he'll just come to us."
----- time skip -----
you arrived at the place. you didn't expect that the place would be a fancy restaurant, you thought that he must be rich. anyway, you found it weird that at a situation like this he would invite your sister to something this fancy. wouldn't people see if he beats up your sister or he's just that dumb, you thought.
"stay there at the bush and tell him you're here and make him go outside. i'll wait for him here"
you sat at a bench while waiting for him, there was not much people outside so it's easier to know if the person is your sister's boyfriend. you saw someone coming from the main door standing st the front, looks like he is looking for someone.
"SIS! THAT'S HIM!" your sister whispered.
if i'm going to be honest, you were actually scared for your dear life and you were unsure of what to do but as her sister you'll need to defend her and talk to her bf. you walked closer at him and said "are you my sister's boyfriend?" he looked at you with a confused look but soon realized that you came instead of your sister.
"follow me inside." and you did while your sister was still at the bush hiding.
your heartbeat went faster and you were somehow shaking. you kept holding back from punching him and stayed calm. as you walked further, the light went off. oh dear, that's when you lost it. you were so scared of what might happen to you there and scared that this might be your last day. then the lights opened again.
"HAPPY BDAY!!" you were so shocked that you fainted.
hours later, you finally woke up and you were already home. you actually thought it was just a dream but then a door opened, it was jungwon. he was so relieved seeing you finally awake.
"love, don't scare me like that. i thought we went far. i'm so sorry, i should've surprised you in a different way."
"no, don't scare me like that. i fucking thought i would die there, i can't believe these was all your plan." you put your hand to your chest and tried feeling your heartbeat. "my heart is still beating fast right now, i feel like i might've got a heart attack at that point."
jungwon suddenly ran out of the room and went back holding a cake. "you didn't get to blow the candles earlier, happy bday my love!"
"i actually thought you already forgot about my bday, thank you for remembering BUT please no more surprises like this. if you do this again next time, i think i might actually die already."
"don't say that but yes, i won't surprise you like that anymore." he laughed then suddenly stopped, as you both talked he remembers how you acted in the certain situation which made him worry and get concerned for you.
"y/n... if something like this ever happens, don't act rashly and call me immediately. love, i don't want you to get hurt..."
"okay okay, i know love. i still can't believe you asked chaewon for this evil plans of yours."
"yoi wait, did you really think i forgot your bday? were you waiting for me to greet you?" he smirked.
you looked at him shyly and guilty. "uh, noO."
"you know what? ill take my day off tomorrow and let's celebrate your day properly but first let's eat the cake!!"
so you may be confused but.....
jungwon is really not the type to forget your bday, he could never
which is why the storyline here is different
even if he did forget, he would've still remembered hours later because he always think of you<33333
welp, jungwon's might be the only one who has the shortest..... he remembered your bday so...q
if you guys want more with lawyer jungwon just hmu !!
nishimura riki, ni-ki (니키)
you were talking to your boyfriend over the phone and you were reminded that it's your bday tomorrow so you somehow waited for him to mention about it over the phone but to your surprise he didn't. ni-ki is someone who gets more excited in an event than the person who is hosting it or the person who's the event made for so it was really odd of him to not say anything about it.
the next day, you woke up with a messy hair and a drool on your mouth. you checked your clock and saw that you're about to be late for school so you hurriedly went to the bathroom and went downstairs to get your shoes.
"sweetie, you made him wait for an hour now. ALSO GO EAT."
you ran to the door and said "nah, i'm good mom. i think ni-ki's going to get me something later."
you thought that ni-ki is sitting on the bench but when you opened the door running, you accidentally bumped onto him.
"oops, sorry."
"and you're the one telling me to sleep early."
actually, your school is just near your home so everyday you and your boyfriend just go on foot. you guys were having a small talk then you realized that he hasn't greeted you a 'happy birthday' at all.
"so....."
"so...?" he raised his eyebrow at you. "so what?"
"oh, nothing. so um, have you finished your assignment?"
"since when do i even do that?" you laughed at him, knowing that he'll probably fail in your exam day which is next week.
----- time skip -----
you both arrived at the gate of your school and as you went in, you both parted ways. you two have a lot of similarities but when it comes to education, you both can't even be compared. however, you and your boyfriend are pretty popular. you're the valedictorian and he's just the hot guy everyone knew about.
as you went in your classroom, you sat and wondered what surprise is ni-ki's hiding. usually, ni-ki is bad at surprising because his acting is just terrible that it immediately gives it out but seeing him today made you think that he's finally good at this. you were thinking of him so much while looking outside the window that you didn't notice your teacher already standing behind you.
"ehem, miss y/n. is there something would you like to share with the class? i suppose not."
your seatmate, also your best friend giggled at you. "y/n, i know it's your bday but what made you think it would be a good idea to zone out when the teacher's here or.... you're thinking of that gigantic emo man again? i told you we should've became together instead lol."
"normally, i would've bickered with you for saying that but since you're the first to greet me then-" wonyoung gasped loudly while the teacher looks at the both of you but the teacher let you both go for now since you are the top of the class.
"don't tell me you both literally came here in school at the same time without him greeting you?! i knew you shouldn't have dated that man. it should've been me instead, like im even taller than him." she whispered, actually nevermind the whispered part because literally everyone heard wonyoung that time.
"wish i could say the same but anyway, im pretty sure he's going to surprise me sooner or later. you know him, he can't handle surprises and he's probably so excited right now telling his friends about it."
meanwhile ni-ki......
"hey bro, a dumbass in another class just told me i suit pink. i would literally look like shit if i do anything with pink, i just hate it."
"i think it would suit you fine, don't know." heeseung chuckled.
"shall we fight and see?"
yeah they started play fighting inside the classroom, just imagine that one time where ni-ki and heeseung was play punching each other while hee was holding a dumbbell.
back to you, you decided to visit ni-ki's classroom and maybe sneak up on him to see what is he up to. you looked through the classroom's windows and you saw that ni-ki was just playing and doing some random stuff in the classroom. finally, you thought that ni-ki forgot about your bday. it all makes sense, from him not mentioning about it and he looked like his usual self (like not being excited, etc.) to him just being normal in the classroom. you went back to your classroom and didn't pay attention much to that, hate to admit this but you were upset that your own boyfriend forgot about your bday.
----- time skip -----
the school bell finally rang for break time, everyone started to go to the cafeteria and eat. you also went with wonyoung while you guys were walking in the hallway, wony noticed that you seemed a bit down.
"hey, are you okay? you look like someone just threw up on you. okay kidding aside, are you okay?"
"yeah, i just feel tired right now thinking about studying advance for the exam next week."
"it's break time now so let's eat and stop thinking about your grades for now."
you guys were already in the line to get food and you sat down. ni-ki was waiting for you since forever and when he found you, he sat beside you in the cafeteria. wonyoung was also sitting beside you, at the left side.
"baby, i missed you." he was about to kiss you but you immediately put the spoon in your mouth since you aren't really in the mood for his lovey dovey. wonyoung side eyed you because what and ni-ki on the other side was shook.
"should i go to another table? it looks like there's something the both of you need to talk about." then she whispered to you saying "oh, i can tell he still didn't greet you huh?.." she elbowed you about two times and headed to the other tables with your classmates.
"so... jake and the others plan to go to the haunted house after school. wanna come?" you didn't respond, you were still thinking hard whether if he actually forgot about it or what. it wasn't a really big deal to you so you still somehow replied to him with a low tone "sure." ni-ki thought it was weird that you talked like that, he never even heard you that way. you both are always loud, to be honest.
----- time skip -----
classes ended and it is finally time to go home but you remembered you had plans to go to the haunted house so you looked for ni-ki, you were walking down the hallway where your boyfriend and the others at. there was a crowd, there was a lot of people but not that much. you also noticed your best friend there, you were about to call her but ni-ki noticed you walking in the hallway so he ran to you.
"hey, angel. are you ready to go to the haunted house??? don't worry i won't scare you like last time hehehehe" he laughed.
you didn't really want to ignore him but you were busy thinking if he did forgot about it or no, you were to busy thinking that you didn't hear your boyfriend that started talking to you.
"hello? babe? my girl to earth! hello! huh?" he waved his hands up and down in front of you thinking you were zoning out but no, you were still busy thinking. although, you did notice him waving had hands in front of you but you didn't care.
as you reached the crowd, they were talking about going to some restaurant after the haunted house and also heeseung will be the one to drive. wonyoung saw you and she just had to say something about "it".
"y/n, are you really sure of going to the haunted house? i don't want to see you suffer there."
"i'm fine. i forgot about what happened years ago, i mean i still remember but i don't care about it anymore."
"did you tell ni-ki about it? oh, definitely not because if you did i'm sure he wouldn't invite you to go to a haunted house."
"yeah, i think i'll just make him worry but he probably doesn't care as well. look wony, i can manage myself." you knew that was a lie, going back to the haunted house is a bad idea. a lot of tragic events has happened you in there which means if you go back it will probably trigger you trauma again. as ni-ki mentioned, you guys actually went to the haunted house one time. you didn't want to go but your boyfriend was with you so you thought your trauma won't get triggered. as you went in the haunted house, memories has been flashing in your mind. you couldn't breathe properly, ni-ki knew something was off but your acting with him was just so good even though you were shaking a bit. the memories of you getting almost killed by your aunt and uncle inside the haunted house, make you think that they're still there, in every haunted house ready to try and kill you again.
----- time skip -----
all of you finally arrived at the haunted house, everyone was getting ready to go in except you. wonyoung was looking at you the whole time, worried. while ni-ki tried to make a conversation with you in the car but you were busy thinking, not because if he forgot about your bday or not but because of the haunted house. you don't know what might happen to you this time, back then, you managed to act naturally with ni-ki but this time there's a lot of people.
"y/n, okay i'll be serious. why have you been ignoring me? did i-" before he could finish talking jake and the others were calling everyone in the car to go in the haunted house now. you just saw the building but all the memories are already flashing in to your mind. you don't even know if you can go inside because you felt dizzy and scared. you still tried to act natural because you didn't want anyone to think you're crazy at that moment. as you went in, you got dizzier and images of your past is all you can see. you were scared to death and hoping someone can just save you and go somewhere else. wonyoung looked at you with a worried look and held your hand in. "y/n, are you sure you're okay? i don't want to see you get hurt..." your boyfriend heard what she said and approached the two of you.
"why? did something bad happened?? don't ignore me, y/n, please.."
you whispered to wony "yes, i'm fine." you let go of her hand and turned your back. you were not fine. you were shaking terribly and wanted to cry at that point. everyone proceeded to explore and of course, your boyfriend went with you instead of the others, it was just the two of you. you were still shaking and you couldn't handle it anymore, so when ni-ki was busy picking up something, you decided to walk away from him and went in the nearest room. when you went in, that's when it got worsen. the room looked exactly like where you were when your uncle were hurting you. you went to one of the corners and sat, breathing rapidly and covering your ears because you were somehow hearing your aunt's voice whispering to you words. you cried and cried and couldn't handle it anymore, you didn't know what to do but luckily you went to the nearest room and ni-ki just found you in time. he didn't know what to do but he just ran over to you and tried to see what was happening. he was talking to you but you didn't answer. he was panicking so hard that he just hugged you that time, you needed it. for a few minutes, you calmed down while closing your eyes. still hugging him. ni-ki is still worried as fuck and you weren't responding to him. he held your hand and said that you both should go outside now, he didn't care if he's going to leave the others behind.
----- time skip -----
you still didn't talk but ni-ki took you at his home because you begged that you didn't want to go home and there wasn't any safer places for you to be comfortable so he took you to his home. he gave you a glass of water and hugged you again.
"i don't know why that happened but you can tell me whenever you're ready. im sorry i didn't know you were going through something but please i want to talk to you at least."
your mother called, you were supposed to not pick it up because you weren't really in the mood to talk but you still did and you put her on speaker.
"sweetie, do you ever plan to go home to celebrate your bday or are you going to celebrate it with ni-ki." and when your boyfriend heard that he stood up and was like HUH. while you were talking with your mother, he was walking back-and-forth not being able to believe himself for forgetting your bday and you were also going through something that he didn't know. you hang up on you mother and he was asking questions on where do you wanna go, you told him to the movies or in a restaurant. he literally brought a bag like he was taking care of a baby but yes it was full of things that you might need in case you went crying again.
----- time skip -----
you finally told him on what happened earlier, he was feeling sorry for you and was mad at your aunt and uncle.
"i can't believe i didn't notice that that was happening to you and i even forgot about your bday. im really the worst boyfriend ever.." he pouted and hugged you again.
"maybe but you aren't really the worst, if you were you wouldn't care about me at all." he hugged you tightly and you just found comfortable and safe around him, in fact you were luck that he was there earlier of he weren't you don't know what might've happened to you in there.
oh yeah, lol you both technically forgot about everyone. they were calling the both of you but didn't answer but seeing the car disappeared, they were pretty sure you went somewhere.

hi cas!!
im gonna rant at you for a bit if you dont mind :)
Im a minor that lives in a super tight night, close minded community. Super religious, super homophobic transphobic ect. Seeing as im a teenage girl whose questioning their gender and is definitely attracted to women thats kinda problematic lols. Honestly idek how to explain the situation without a bunch of details, but basically, theres a fifty-fifty chance of me being sent to conversion therapy or just cut off from any internet access (and i mean ANY. i have a flip phone for fucks sake.)if my fam finds out im queer, i have no support system outside of some internet friends who know nothing about my situation, and within the next few years(so like once i turn 20ish, thats in like 4 years but whatever) my family is going to expect me to get married to a man and start popping out babies asap. Btw thats whats expected of me in this community, marriage under the age of 25, have like as many kids as physically possible and god forbid higher education. And im not okay with that . Ffs i want to go to college, major in fine arts, meet a person i like and fall desperately in love or maybe not just have a bunch of close platonic relationships i want cats and a dog and a cute studio in a big city where i can dye my hair whatever color i want aand get an obsene amount of piercings, i want to wear pants!! I just want to live. Without expectations or limits or people who love me hating everything they dont know about me. Is that truly so much to ask for?
And im incredibly dramatic cuz i literally have the dream life. My family loves me, my parents are upper middle class, theyve never hurt me before(besides for all the anti everything rants haha) i literally have a full sized bed, which for some reason i see as the peak of being spoiled idk why. I go to school, not even public, a private religious school that prob costs thousands of dollars, i have friends(who are all part of this community btw and id bet my entire savings that most of them think gay is only a word that ppl use to mean happy lol) close ones even!! I have adorable neices and nephews(my 3 sisters all were married by the age of 20, so i have 11 niecesand nephews while my oldest sister is 31) im living the dream life. But i hate it and i have no way out. No hope of college to get on my feet and find someway out, no people that'll help me fucking run away or some bullshit like that, hell ive considered it and then felt like shit, cuz what am i even running from? Im probably attracted to men it wont kill me to marry one. And i like kids, i wouldnt mind having any either. But.... i dont want to be trapped anymore. Cuz ill be honest thats what i am.if some one asked me to run away with them rn i would, no hesitation.
God im a mess😭😭 anyway this was me ranting in my notes app, im just apologizing for dumping this on a complete stranger(we're moots actually!!) albeit a very kind one :) i dont know what im looking for, but ill take whatever your comfortable giving ig.
I love and appreciate you<333
And hey this has been oddly cathartic so lmk if its okay for me to do this again sometime :))
"im living the dream life. But i hate it and i have no way out."
Hon, you're not living the dream life...there's a difference between financial privilege and being happy, you know? It's pretty clear that this isn't what you want.
I'm not sure if you're asking for my advice here, or if you just want to vent. But I care about you, and if you want me to research some things to try to help you, I'm more than willing to (that way it's not on your search history.) Just say the word!
Until then, you are ALWAYS allowed to vent to me.
I'm naming you venting anon in case you write again!

Allie, a lot of people think louis is going to expose simon and sony in this documentary, and they also think larry will come out…..and louis will expose the stunts (babygate, pr relationship) but let's be honest I don't think that will happen……since Harry doesn't seem like he is gonna come out any time soon and neither is Louis. Do you think that it's even possible for them to throw a bombshell like that? Is it likely to happen seeing the current circumstances, do you think?
Uh. IMO Larry coming out on a documentary like this without further context is very unresonable. And I don't think Louis will expose things like that so literally, not now and maybe ever. Exposing stunts is something so complex, people thinking they can just go the "expose everything" route are missing the fact we're talking loads and loads of powerful people also involved in all of this, it's not that easy. I don't know if Louis still has obligations with Sony or if he's under any contracts that will prevent him to talk explicitly about it, but if he isn't and he wants to talk about that, I think he will be more generic about the entire thing. Plus, Harry IS currently under Sony and having Louis talking *too much* or being too specific about it, could cause him trouble and he obviously doesn't want that. I 100% think their coming out (whenever happens) will be presented as something new.
Now, in a hypothetical scenario where there aren't any actual contracts holding them back at this point, I assume Louis could come out if he wanted. And by that I mean that it wouldn't be an issue in his career, quite the opposite, I think his fans would be incredibly supportive and everyone would love it. And he's already basically only relying on fans for promo and everything... so. However, he would instantly be connected to Harry. And as I talked about so many times previously I don't think coming out "separately" is really a thing that makes sense without leading to a coming out of them as a couple. Because, I mean, you're not entirely out if you're still actively hiding a relationship, it's not sustainable. And listen.... I have no idea what are the chances of that happening soon, I don't know how realistic that is. Theoretically, they're single now after ages and babygate being reintroduced would suddenly make a lot of sense. But it's hard to fully understand how that would affect Harry's career, it's obviously risky because he's so huge right now, coming out at the peak of his career wouldn't be easy. They would be giving up on their privacy. There's just a lot to consider. So, to be honest, in the last few years it seems to me like they kind of settled to wait until they're older and maybe enjoy their privacy for now. I don't think it's completely out of question, anything can happen, but it's very complex.
Ultimately I think the documentary will be more focused on his career, and not that kind of deep discussions and revelations of his personal life, Idk.

It's fascinating to think of the future of tennis as a sport after this era is officially over (AKA all rafa, novak and andy finally retired for good). With the constant that is human progression, we always knew that sports are on the way up, getting faster, more competitive, more physically demanding and generally better, just look at the difference between olympics 50 years ago and now. But what if there is a limit with game-format restricted sports? Maybe there is a certain point where there is only so much racket development or match technology improvement we can make without transforming the sport into a whole different game entirely. Excluding physical human evolution itself, which might take a couple decades, the sport might have reached its peak in its most competitive form, and there is really no way of beating or even yet repeating this jackpot of golden era.
Sadly, if we're being honest the truest rivals of the big 3 in their dominance have only been each other and themselves. We've had a next gen, a next next gen, and a whole batch of new promising future players (we've even invented a tournament so they can compete AMONGST THEMSELVES only) but they never really did break the full dominance of these 30-40 year old veterans consistently, except for instances when they themselves are injured (e.g., Nadal pulling out of Wimbledon this year).
Tennis analysts have been criticised for being too judgmental, but they've also witnessed 20 something Federer taking the crown directly from Agassi-Sampras AND staying for the next 20 years at the top, as well as 17 year old Nadal beating the world number one consistently in his prime, and Djokovic doing the impossible and breaking into the Federer-Nadal duopoly.
The biggest worry is of course to have a whole generation of new players on the tour after the rest of the big 3 and their peers (Wawrinka, Andy, etc) retired who've never actually beaten (or pull the rug from under them so to say) the champions of the previous era consistently. This will mean that the sports have not transitioned to the better but has solely transitioned to the next era due to natural decline. Sadly, this seems more and more likely given that Nadal and Djokovic are well past their primes at this point and ARE STILL winning 2 slams in their late 30s, which means the opportunity to knock them off their crowns are pretty much expired as they're likely to retire on a high anyway.
The likeliest and most dangerous scenario is that we truly are living in a one-of-a-kind era, where the best tennis players that will ever be happened to be playing all at the same time. If that is so, it's time for us to realise the importance of enjoying the ride for as long as we got left. As it'll ever be this thrilling, this competitive, this mindboggling once, and we have the front row seats at the theatre of the gods.
#just some tennis op#this truly is sad i was a big fan of some of the next gens as well#it's just not possible to consistently beat the big 3 i guess they're aliens#any thoughts on why?#tennis#fedal#roger federer#rafael nadal#novak djokovic#andy murray#stan wawrinka#next gen#atp finals#nitto atp finals#casper ruud#carlos alcaraz#dominic thiem#sascha zverev

I remember almost the exact moment I became a part of the sanders sides fandom. I was in middle school, and a friend I used to watch vine compilations with brought up Thomas's YouTube channel and a web series of his she really liked. And I thought "okay, why not?" and watched the first few episodes.
So. Here we are now.
I've been in a lot of fandoms since middle school, some more casual, some short term but very invested obsessions. But sanders sides was always kind of in the back of my mind. Before I even considered being autistic or doing enough research to self diagnose, it became my special interest. The show and the people involved have had such a big impact on my life.
I'm not leaving the fandom. But I respect the people that are. I respect the people that choose to casually watch until the series over. I respect the people that can't even leave Thomas unblocked anymore. I respect the people like me, who just can't bring themselves to leave.
I always kind of knew the end was going to be devastating for me, and the discourse has been a similar kind of devastating. I've watched so many content creators in this fandom come and go. I've personally seen people ruin their lives for popularity within the fandom. I've seen fanfic writers blow me away more than any published author could. There has been so much joy, so much connection, and because I was afraid of social media for a very long time, i only got to be a direct part of some of it.
The last thing we all need is another opinion about this- whole thing right now, and I don't think there's a single original though I could add that someone hasn't covered. A lot of mistakes have been made, a lot of hurt has been caused, and jesus, a lot has changed. But I know where I stand now, and I don't know that I stand to support Thomas. I don't know that everything was made perfectly, that he was as honest as he could have been, or if he's always had good at the center of his mind. I do know that he's just a person, and a very stressed one at that. When the series was at his peak, the minimal production team behind the series was put on a pedestal. That was a lot of pressure, and something that was so big and held so much weight that they all ended up with health issues by the end of it.
But there were things that they didn't do. There hasn't been a lot of honesty lately, to the point where the "suspense" just feels like we're being dragged along. I know I'm frustrated, really really frustrated, and I'm allowed to be. Thomas is also more than allowed to take the time he needs to make the thing because it's his project and his time, and it is a lot of work.
There isn't one perfect solution. The fandom will never be what it was. Thomas will never be who he was at the peak, but for differing reasons, neither will any of us. I am happy staying attached to my special interest, but I'm also exploring some other fandoms as well. I'm also in the beginnings of my first year of college, and that's a lot of pressure all on its own.
I don't know if anyone cares or if anyone will take the time to read this, but that's okay. I'll keep writing for me because I love it, and I'm gonna finish watching the series as it comes out, and im gonna love it.
So. Yeah. Have a good day <3

anyways. companions and my opinions on kissing them.
astarion: has both a technical understanding on good make out technique, and is now in a place where he can lazy make out with someone with no end goal in mind. great way to spend an afternoon. or a morning. or an evening. if someone asked me if i wanted to go to a tavern, there's more than a 50% chance i'd say "sorry, i've already got plans" and those plans would just be getting astarion on my lap and making out with him. 10/10 great kisser.
gale: he and i have no chemistry so this is difficult. on one hand, he was dating a goddess, and i hear gods have notoriously high standards. on the other hand, i feel like he'd be too focused on me, and i'd get frustrated with it. like a 4/10 for me, we were just not meant to be.
wyll: solid kisser. the kinda guy who's very fun to make out with when you're in the beginning exploratory stage of kissing, where you're not totally sure what feels good with a new person yet. but, and this is key, i also think he goes from a solid kisser to a phenomenal kisser after you get a rhythm going. boyfriend material kinda kissing. he invests in what he's doing. 9/10, just this side of too sweet for it to be perfect for me.
halsin: if a bear wants to shove his tongue in my mouth sloppy style who am i to stop him. so excessively my type it's not even funny 10/10, the key here is that he's also 300. 20 year old dudes who think they can shove their tongue in your mouth sloppy style almost universally can not.
shadoweheart: i feel like our chemistry would actually be best the less we knew each other. this isn't to say the kissing would get worse down the line, i just think we were destined for a fwb relationship, and that's where the kissing would peak. 8/10 we hit each other up every time one of us goes on a shitty date and we're feeling frustrated
karlach: eager, energetic kinda kisser. just an absolute blast of a time. the kind of kissing that lights your brain up, because you know you're about to get railed, even if the kissing isn't actually leading to sex. it's about vibes. 10/10, sorry for having a weakness for large people i'm convinced would stick their tongue down my throat.
lae'zel: aggressive kisser. bitey. i think tongues may end up battling for dominance, if i'm being honest. almost the exact opposite vibe of shadowheart to me, i think that my chemistry with lae'zel improves exponentially the more familiar we are with each other. sparring is better when you know your partner's limits, and making out with lae'zel is similar. 9/10 when we're having fun we're having fun, when we're not i fear our makeout session may devolve into arguing.
jaheira & minsc: idk them.

Katy Perry wasn't wrong, Taylor really can be very Regina George-esque towards other women she is upset with, and even Taylor herself has implied in post-Rep Era songs that she's said cruel enough things to Karlie of all people that Karlie's considered leaving her over it, so it's not hard to imagine that Taylor might've said even worse things to people she cares about less than Karlie when she's upset.
So it's not too hard for me to imagine Taylor wrongly lashing out at somebody that embodies one of her worst fears (being replaced as an artist by a younger girl with the same kind of talents as her) even though that person was a teenager who idolizes her.
Taylor's grown a lot in maturity over the last ten years, but she's still not exactly what I would call the most mature acting 30-something year old, so that also makes it not too hard for me to imagine that Taylor could've fucked up and lashed out at a kid she was mentoring.
Also Taylor has always acted like she's never forgiven or forgotten a single slight, perceived or actual, against her in her life, so that's why I am kind of worried that Taylor might do something a least a little bit asshole-ish out of spite in the first place because in the past Taylor has over-reacted to perceived slights against her that were pretty innocuous sounding and only vaguely sounded like it was maybe about her.
Taylor's gotten a lot better at only directing her crueler behaviors towards people that truly deserve it like Scooter, but she's human and humans make mistakes and hurt people who don't deserve it.
I love and respect Taylor a lot but I'm not blind to her flaws, so I just hope that someone reminds her not to say mean things to people who doesn't deserve it that she'll regret alongside all the other cruel things she has said to people who don't derserve it that she has a lot of regrets about saying. It's good to have a reminder for people like us who have sharp tongues that cut people who don't necessarily deserve it when we're angry even if/when it hasn't happened in awhile
i myself have never seen evidence that taylor is ever regina george-like to other women.
taylor sings about hurting people she loves and lashing out, and i imagine she does that to the same extent as the rest of us (tbh i bet it's less than average with her). i do not believe she is a mean girl. and i believe that if honest misunderstandings occur, she seems to have the self-awareness to be able to reflect on it and communicate and resolve things. call me naive if you want to, but i have a very strong reason (re: all of history) to believe that any stories we've ever heard about taylor being "a bitch" have been fabricated by people who are struggling with their own demons, including misogyny, and/or are looking to make a profit "selling headlines." because there's nothing people love to watch more than a successful beloved woman falling from grace, especially from such a high peak.
no, i do not know her personally, but i like the rest of the world have been blown away by her kindness and professionalism and maturity. i think if there's one person on earth least likely to qualify as an "asshole," it's taylor alison swift. so i guess we have two different versions of a person in our minds, and that's okay.

the sacred 28 is peak jkr tbh. We learn nothing about progress or how things changed for halfbloods, muggleborns, squibs, etc, but years after the series ends we get more pureblood focus, like why did this even need to exist beyond her racism huh?
Sorry anon, I don't know if you were expecting solidarity or agreement from me, but I...don't really have any to offer.
...Really? We're going to presume she's a blood purist in her real life politics because she added a bit of in-universe world-building to her cash cow like, ten years ago? (I mean...she might be, but this isn't proof.) It is not surprising that the Pureblood Directory exists. Nor is it proof of anything. I actually think it's kind of neat. I like that we don't know who wrote it. That it has inconsistencies and flaws. I am not remotely surprised that such a piece was published in this world. And I'm not going to assume anything about the author based on this update because...honestly, that's nuts.
Trying to guess a writer's real life politics based on the nuances they include in the sub-creationist fantasy world they craft is...a losing game.
I don't know why the fandom feels the need to keep doing this. Not saying this is you, anon (though you kind of give that impression) but some of the HP fans (or "former fans" if you like) are fixated on dissecting the book and trying to find traces of the person Rowling is now in a narrative she wrote twenty years ago. You guys really don't need to keep inventing new reasons to hate her when there's perfectly good transphobia already out in the open. Transphobia that she keeps doubling down on.
Gotta be honest...I don't think this is helping. Criticize her for her actual bigotry and the damage she's causing, sure. But people will choose to focus on the books "supporting slavery" through the House Elves or featuring a "trans stereotype" with Rita Skeeter...all of it feels like people are reaching. No, the series isn't homophobic just because Dumbledore's sexuality could have been handled better. It isn't racist just because Cho Chang has two last names. (This is just a side note but she's not explicitly Chinese...or even explicitly Asian. They never confirm her race in the text. I mean, it's pretty clear that she is, I'm just saying.)
We don't need to waste time on this stuff. Rowling is actually hurting people with bigotry that she actually believes in. Let's focus on that instead of trying to piece together a dossier about how she was "always" awful. I honestly don't think that's the case, but it doesn't matter anyway. When I see posts like these, it frankly just comes across as people who have been burned by Rowling trying to "ruin" Harry Potter for the allies who still feel a connection to the series...if so, that's not going to work, and there are productive things you can do. Follow Daniel Radcliffe's example, he is slaying as a human being.
#To be clear#Fuck J.K. Rowling#Ten ways from sunday#But Anti Rowling sentiment is kind of crapshoot#People choose to pick apart the books#Rather than the actual harm she's causing in present day#Harry Potter is immortal you guys#It's too successful and beloved to crash#Also it's actually good and not even problematic?#But that's not the point anyway#J.K. Rowling#Harry Potter#Anti JKR#Anti J.K Rowling#Harry Potter Books#Transphobia#Trans rights#Daniel Radcliffe#Oh that reminds me#Rowling apparently denounced him and Emma#Even though he never even explicitly called her out#Apparently she's willing to give up everything for this “cause”#So my hope of her seeing the error of her ways is a dying ember

Toilet Bound Hanako-Kun- Sakura Nanamine
Nanamine Sakura is a 3rd-year student at Kamome Academy's High School division. She made a contract with Tsukasa and is now bound to him as his assistant. She is a member of the school's Broadcasting Club.
•Sakura has green hair styled in an asymmetrical bob cut with very short bangs. She has two pieces of hair left in front of her ears to frame her face, and two more long sections that extend to her chest. She also has two braids that extend from the crown of her head down to her ears. Her eyes are green with yellow flecks. She has notable eyelashes and always has her eyes half-closed, giving her a somewhat drowsy or disinterested look.
•Sakura is noted to be quite beautiful, mainly by Nene. She is said to have a doll like appearance. Sakura also appears to be quite slender and seems to be taller than Nene.
•She wears the school uniform with a red gem brooch above the front bow. Unlike Nene's uniform, Sakura's is long-sleeved. She wears yellow stockings with brown stripes and garters. In the anime, her socks are brown and lack garters.
•During the tea party arc, Sakura is wearing a long, sparkling black dress with long, bishop sleeves. On her sleeves she has two yellow buttons, and seems to be wearing a frilly white undershirt that can be seen peaking out of her sleeves and behind her neckline. On her neck, she also has a matching white cravat with a red gem brooch in the middle of it, just like on her school outfit. She is also wearing boots, which are black in the manga but brown in the anime.
•When transformed into a male body, she a sharper face, wider shoulders and burlier legs and arms. She is also generally taller and somewhat more muscly. Her eyes are smaller and without eyelashes, and her hair is a lot shorter, with two long chunks of hair on either side of her face. During the chapter, she request a male uniform, which is a standard kamone gakuen male uniform, but with her signature red gem brooch.
•She enjoys Yashiro Nene's company and treats her with hospitality and kindness, but is also willing to double cross her at Tsukasa's behest, indicating she may not be terribly honest. While she may legitimately desire Nene's friendship, she also seems to keep herself distant in order to carry out Tsukasa's requests.
•Interestingly, both of girls share aesthetic similarities, like their short bangs, brooches, and irregular stockings.
•In Chapter 103, Sakura dons the costume of a Maid as part of Class 3-B's Maid and Butler Cafe exhibit. She still wears the same stockings and garters as her school uniform, but with the rest of her outfit being a short-skirt maid costume. She has a ribbon on the back of her costume, and wears a fluffy headband on her head. Her signature red gem brooch is located above the collar, as it is in the rest of her outfits.
•It is unclear currently what favor she gained by being in a contract with Tsukasa. It is also unknown what her specific goal or wish is, however, it is most likely related to leaving Kamone Academy's bounds.
•By association with Tsukasa, and due to her status as a supernatural herself, she is able to see other supernatural beings. In addition, she is able to communicate with kokujoudai as it brings back results or information to her.
"I've always wanted to talk to you. You see... you and I... we're in the same position. I think we could be good friends."
-From Sakura Nanamine

Trigun Stampede episode 8 liveblog!
I've been told that this likely has Vash backstory, so. Expecting trauma and probably explosions. :))
Yep flashback time
... a year since what, exactly? Like. Since they've been in her care, or are they like a year old at this point.
Wait why would Vash need to eat if Knives doesn't? That's interesting.
That was a little unnerving how fast Knives went from a monotone disinterest to outright giggles. (To be fair I also have a tendency for monotone and laughing at the drop of a hat, but going from emotion to emotion so fast caught me off guard).
It is really interesting that Knives does seem genuinely attached to Rem to some capacity. If memory serves me, he was the one to ask her to get into the escape pod with them, but also he turned around and started denying affection for her like the next scene? I wonder what's happening there, like if he's being honest in that last scene or justifying things to himself.
Huh. That escape pod doesn't really look like the reused spaceship parts we saw on the ship. Different time periods, assumedly? I guess it is a possibility that Vash has been on the planet since the initial colonization, but that seems unlikely.
Actually what is with the meteor-shower-looking happenings here? It doesn't look like they're all from the same destroyed spaceship, so maybe it's just a natural event coinciding.
Huh. The people in the pods had different hair colors, I think. Maybe regular humans rather than Plants, then? That would make more sense as to why Knives is letting them burn.
Actually now that we're seeing this scene again, Knives kind of just sidesteps the accusation that he killed Rem, rather than saying anything about it. Oops.
Gate? Dream sequence? ...Imaginings?
Oh people! Okay that means that the planet had already been colonized. Did they not see his markings or...?
Oop, no they do. Wait, huh, they're wearing very similar clothing. Okay maybe further back in the timeline than I thought.
And they have lost tech just on hand.
asdhfkl the ">>TOP SECRET<<" banner on the display
On topic, though. Plants giving birth. Okay that's new information I didn't know about. We haven't really seen plants having much mobility when they're... mostly in ball form and isolated. Do they reproduce asexually? I guess that's different from cloning process-wise, but wouldn't it still give the same results on a genetic level (epigenetics aside)? Also if they're 'independents', is that referring to them being created without cloning, or something further, I wonder?
Oh they're also referring to people as Sinners! ...that's weird. Prison colony, or more weird religious stuff?
"molecular plant studies" okay but like. Why do they need experts on a molecular level? Wouldn't like doctor, vet, or even like biologist (botanist?) level be more helpful?
Oh these people still have access to ships! Alright. That they're in contact with both them and the "Sinners" is interesting. I'd assumed the "Sinners" were the stranded population, but maybe not?
I think it's really entertaining that everything else is so high-tech except this guy is holding a normal-looking wrench. I guess they've been refined to peak performance already lol.
"he's just a kid" - weird that she's not trying to like. dehumanize him. I'd assume they'd really want to discourage the idea that plants are sapient, given the conditions that we've seen them kept under.
"activated their gravity plant" okay there's a lot being implied here lore wise but I don't think I really can say anything about that so just. moving on.
They have different generator specialties? That's interesting. ...It didn't seem to be the case for the other plants we've seen in present-day, though? It looked like they're doing at least water purification and energy production.
I assume the Gate is what Vash produces? I mean we don't really know how it functions, but it seemed to be implied that it was exclusive to him.
They found the black box! Uh oh.
Wait! Okay Brad(?) has got a nameplate on that says "Seeds." Related to Plant stuff, or planet colonization, I wonder?
Are the tally marks meant to look like crosses? With this show I honestly can't tell lmao.
Oh man that's a lot of plants. Do they each have their own thing? They keep mentioning their functions as singular (ex. the gravity plant, the electricity plant).
Are the red/previously assumed to be dying/damaged plants just in the process of... whatever this is? Hatching? Blooming?
Okay frankly I'm a little confused as why this Brad(?) keeps denying Luida so much? I thought she was his commanding officer??
In the middle of one of the sand seas, huh? I guess that might be why they haven't seen any outside people? <- still not sure about the timeline
...why is Brad(?) looking around and gasping. did he not notice the tally marks before somehow?
So like. What is the deal with the way plants are viewed? I'd assume they'd be thought of more as tools/animals/actual plants, but reactions appear to be ranged from nothing to distrust to fear/hatred?
With the time jump to teen(?) Vash, I'm starting to think maybe this is the point where humans came to the planet first.
Yeah this is not gonna end well. This entire sequence is just flag after flag omg
Man, I thought the last episode had a late title display.
So like what was Vash communicating with the plants? It doesn't really seem like their situations are improving, other than the fact that they have a conversation partner/outlet?
Oh, he left the jacket. ...well there goes any hope of them getting off the planet or out of this situation alive, frankly.
oh! the flashback is cut short. I was fully expecting to see the whole story, but I guess it is getting to the end of the episode. Trauma delayed! Possibly just until the next episode, though.
Or wait no nevermind this is still a flashback. I think.
Given the background music and silhouettes, I assume the plants are all dead?
Hmm. I don't think I recognize any of the people standing near Knives?

Well that's a bit of a cliffhanger! And we still don't find out what the rest of the group has to say about Vash's newly revealed plant status.
I'm still very confused about the timeline here, but that's probably intentional, haha. But I feel like if Vash really had been around since humans first came to the planet he'd be a bit more well-established. Like historically and community-wise, outside of the bounty, I mean. Even with limited travel or communication, people still talk and word still carries.
On a personal and somewhat negative note, I feel a little put off by some of the character dynamics present in the whole Brad-Luida-Vash situation, particularly as Luida's case. It's just kinda... leaning too much into gendered roles. I mean in this case I guess they might be trying more for a 'new set of parental figures' thing with the dynamic to match, but... eh. Nothing's perfect I guess.
I will say I overall enjoyed the episode though! The mystery of the timeline is kind of fun, and there was some important worldbuilding and character exposition.

Sorry, I saw one post and a half of yours and I'm already a fan.
I still have to scroll down your blog to see more about you, but I saw that two-post-long answer you made for an anon ask (btw, you have such poetic vibes :D your style made me smile, seriously) and I couldn't holf myself to ask:
Hm, have you ever heard of... I mean, "whump"?
If yes, what are your thouhts on it?
(you don't need to answer this, specially if it makes you unconfortable in any ways or anything else XD)
However, I hope you have a wonderful day/noon/afternoon/evening/night(?) !
Hello hello!! First things first, sorry for taking SO LONG to answer, I had a ton of health issues the last couple of months >.<
Secondly, thank you SO MUCH for being so kind!! I saw all your reblogs of that huge answer for such a tiny thing I did and thank you. I'm really happy you like my style too, that makes me smile!
Now now, about your question on whump, I'm gonna be very honest, I had to Google it to make sure we're on the same page HAHAHAHAHAHA
Jokes aside, I know it's sort of a term for hurt/comfort fanfiction - but it's not really clear to me if it's a kink thing or not.
Because you see, if you're talking about hurt and comfort, I mean, that's basically what I write HAHAHAHA writing for the Devil May Cry fandom, inevitably someone will be hurt/tortured/mentally abused somehow.
Or impaled. A lot.
(I mean, that's all this bitch has done for the past 5 games)
And also there's the whole thing with Vergil, his twin brother, being kept as a slave in Hell for 20(?) years and coming back after dragging his crumbling body out of there to find out he has a son and being the peak of cluelessness in the Universe - and me being adamant he deserves love after all that.
So I guess everything I write has a LOT of hurt - and I even put some serious warnings before the fics, 'cause everyone is traumatized in this household - but despite of that, they still can find love, happiness and somewhat soothe all that pain and trauma.
(dramatic, real, horrible, but stil comforting xD)
As a kink, though, I don't enjoy it - and I also don't enjoy putting characters I love through pain and suffering just because. That's why I have a love/hate relationship with horror media: I LOVE horror, but I HATE exploitation.
Movies that have just people being abused, hurt, dismembered and all that kind of horrible stuff happening just because without a real reason to be on the plot - meaning, torture porn - just make my blood boil. And there's a lot of that in horror.
I like when things are more psychological and actually have a REASON to be there. So, in my writing, I'll never torture a character just for the pleasure of doing so and for the pleasure of the reader, I need a point out of it.
For instance, on my cyberpunk-style story, both main characters have gone through a terrible experience together and lost someone who was really dear to them. Both of them went through a lot of physical pain, lost some limbs and needed to install cyberprosthesis, and lost everything they had worked for til that point in their lives.
Horrible, yes. But they had to go through it so I could start the story: because of all of this, the guy made an anarchist/terrorist group and just wants to burn down the city along with the people in power who allowed all that to happen to him, while the woman becomes the best killer for hire so she can get enough money to live and, eventually, retire.
All that physical and psychological pain is a very important plot point and I can't take it away from the story, or else there's no story to begin with. Meanwhile, every time I'm writing I'm thinking "how can I make this as unpleasant as I can so the reader can understand the crushing feeling of all of this?" hahahahaha
That's why I'm not into pain kink - I respect everyone who is, but I can't do it, I feel no pleasure from it.
That's my opinion, I think. For pleasure's sake, I don't like it, but for plot, I really like it. I think it has a hopeful note to it - that even after the storm, the days will shine bright again, you just have to go on. That's what I enjoy from writing things like this, the hope.
Who would've known, I'm not 100% a bitter bitch hahaha
Reading my personal original stories, I think all of them have a painful background and many unpleasant scenes. But I like it, because it's human nature and how life is: bad things will happen, we can just try to make the good ones count even more :)
I hope that was a good answer to your question hahahaha
Thank you once again, and I hope you have a lovely week ahead!! Feel free to spend some time around and ask things if you'd like! ^^
#polaris speaks#polaris answers#answered asks#asks#asks and replies#I hope I managed to explain how my thought process works regarding whump hahahaha#I mean everything I write is painful as hell#that's why I always put thousands of disclaimers around HAHAHA#but there's something of poetic about finding peace and love after so much pain#that scene where Sam monologues at Frodo that WHEN THE SUN SHINES#IT'LL SHINE EVEN BRIGHTER#and they are all dirty in the middle of the war with people dying to wraiths and Frodo just SO fraking tired while crying#and Sam grabs him by his shoulders and reminds him there's something to fight for#for all the good in the world and strawberries with cream in the summer#I LIVE FOR THIS

HELLO EVERYONE I'M GOING TO RAMBLE ABOUT MY COMFORT CHARACTER!!!
It's 00:35 as of starting to write this, I'm tired and don't really care enough to stop myself from writing like a crazy person. So uhm... Sorry.
YOU SEE THIS GUY? THIS THIS THIS ABSOLUTE PERFECT BOY IN MY EYES???
This is Blandon, a character from the yo-kai series/franchise thing. And despite not getting his own episode segment until episode 206 of the anime in Feb 2018 (which is... what 4 years okay now? Okay that's a long time ago but still)
He might have a weird voice in the games, but he (and Dimmy, presumably Nul too) bitch slap people as a soultimate. So all is forgiven. (Also Nul doesn't sound okay at all, #sendhelpforNul)
I love him. More than most fans do, I can't explain it really. But it's probably due to nostalgia. When I first got the first Yokai Watch game, Dimmy caught the interest of my 10 year old self.
'Purple ninja, that looks kind of cute? Nice!' I befriended him, and evolved him into Blandon. And little me lost my marbles. Blandon was the peak of epicness in my eyes. And ever since then I've used Blandon whenever I can.
Please acknowledge Blandon's cool design, I think it's cool, the combo of Black, Purple, Red and Gold/Yellow works well.
I don't remember a playthrough where I didn't use him, when I got the second game I spent ages finding Dimmy. In Blasters, I spent ages trying to befriend Dimmy as well.
So, yeah. I like this scroll boy a lot. I also like Dimmy and Nul a bunch too! Ironically, out of their Yo-kai medals, I like Blandon's medal the least. To be honest, to me it looks like the poor thing is being sucked into a hoover/vacuum. Nul makes me feel even more sympathetic for the poor thing who's sitting sadly on the swing. And Dimmy's medal is by far my favourite, it's very pretty!
Also, I found a video of episode 206 on youtube, and translated the Blandon segment from Malay. I'm going to try and basically describe what happens.
We're skipping the school part, because that's boring.
Nate is looking around with his yo-kai watch, looking for the yokai responsible for everyone ignoring him! Whisper is about to say the typical 'there's no way a yo-kai is responsible for this!!' thing but says something along the lines of: "What are you talking about? No Yo-kai... Damn. I always say that."
Which is funny to me.
ANYWAYS they begin walking, Jibanyan sees/senses another Yo-kai, Nate looks around desperately but can't find where this yo-kai is.
Blandon is like "I'm here lol" and fades into existence to our heroes shock. Nate's like 'Whisper who the heck is this???' Dunno Nate, kind of looks like the ninja guy from episode 8 and that Gorgeous Ambassador episode don't you think?
Whisper uses the holy yo-kai pad, and they discover Blandon makes people practically invisible! (Which is also Dimmy's inspiritment in the games, but in the anime, it was changed for some reason? Seriously why was it changed? I have no idea.)
Whisper looks back and is like 'Wait where did he go?' and TURNS OUT NEITHER NATE NOR JIBANYAN WERE PAYING ATTENTION BECAUSE THEY CAN'T FIND HIM NOW EITHER! Mood honestly.
Blandon, poor thing, hasn't even moved a centimetre from his spot. Says something along of the lines of (remember this is a probably bad translation using google translate): "I'm here all the time. As you can see my presence is not felt. Even though I'm near them, no one notices me. Sometimes, it makes me know secrets I shouldn't have. It's very troublesome."
Makes me realize Blandon probably knows a lot of things he shouldn't purely by being there at the wrong time and nobody noticing, probably the same for those he inspirits.
He also mentions people are hunting him for his skills and trying to use him. (assumingly the skill of being unnoticeable)
Then Injurnalist appears, snatches Blandon and the two vanish. Nate, Whisper, and Jibanyan don't do anything to try to stop him or his fake articles/rumours. That's kind of sad, to be honest.
Injurnalist and Blandon take pictures of different yokai (Blazion, Blizzaria, Hungramps, Snartle and Komasan to be exact) and use it for the article and spread rumours about them.
After that they return to Nate's house, Injurnalist is like "Thanks Blandon lol" although judging by what happens five seconds later he probably doesn't mean it. BLANDON TEARS UP AND SAYS THAT WAS THE FIRST TIME SOMEONE HAS THANKED HIM.
POOR SOUL.
The other yokai show up, obviously pissed about 1. Having pictures taken of them without consent and 2. Those pictures are being used in a bad way to spread rumours/lies.
Injurnalist quickly pins the blame on Blandon, everyone's like "There's no one there" and proceed to beat Injurnalist up! Yay.
Blandon leaves because Nate, Whisper and Jibanyan are pointing randomly trying to find him like idiots.
Also makes me realize Blandon would be pretty tall if he straightened himself, he's just... Permanently crouching/has bad posture. That doesn't matter because he's literally paper thin, therefore does not have bones!!
So, yes. I spent almost an hour writing this. It's very long and I'll probably regret it in the morning. But here you go. And for those who actually read down here, thanks I really appreciate it. :)

*/w Hinako and Teruteru.*
Teruteru...Can I be honest with you...
*Teruteru didn't seem to mind.*
I think You and Fuyuhiko are a great couple really.
But after all this time I've spent being alive...I was Manipulated by other's...I thought they made me happy and I even thought I made them happy...But it was all a Hoax...
What I'm trying to say is...I think their all Manipulating you...
*Teruteru drops a Mug on the floor.*
I feel like they're all just using you for your power...I'd know when somebody's being Manipulated...I want you to be happy I really do...I understand if you don't believe me...𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮.
It's all a Hoax Teruteru. You can deny it all you want but I know they're deceiving you...And I'll alway's be here for you.
*Teruteru's blood begin's to boil. Was it all a Hoax. Do they all hate him. Does Fuyuhiko hate him?*
You don't deserve them. You deserve better. We both know it.
*No...Stop this....His mind begin's to fog...His guard lowered...Making space for his darker side to enter the room...*
There's an open spot for a Helper. Midori could really use someone like you.
*He had no reason to decline this offer to despair. He actually liked the kind gesture.*
M-MR. APRON GUY MEOW?!?!?!?!?!
*The three boy's entered the room...But it was too late...*
Sorry about this everyone. But I really don't care.
Teru don't listen to a single god damn word she says! She's working with Midori! You know that I love you and that I always will for as long as I'm alive! Why the hell would I lie to you for so many years?!
Please... don't... lie...
We're not lying! Your one of the most tolerable and coolest of the bunch here god damn it! Who does this bitch who barely even really knows you thinks she is!?
Even though I did so many horrible things, you still saw the light that everyone else didn't or refused to see! You gave me a second chance that I thought I would never attain!
No matter how hard I try, I could never picture a single moment without you in my life. Your... everything to me. And knowing you... the real you, has changed everything. Don't you remember... back at hopes peak... the rose garden?
#fuyuhiko kuzuryu#teruteru hanamura#hiyoko saionji#monaca towa#sdr2 goodbye despair#danganronpa 2#ultra despair girls#danganronpa

also. 10, 22 and 23. for one piece or fma or soul eater or anything that floats your boat
10. Most disliked arc? Why?
for one piece im gonna be honest whisky peak sucks that zoro luffy fight was so dumb and unnecessary and random and irrelevant and it makes me mad just thinking about it. frankly. i'll chalk it up to early series weirdness but like that entire thing was . incredibly mid. at least it was only like 3 chapters LMAO
for fma honestly... i dont think i have a least favorite arc? theyre all really solid no complaints here
for soul eater its been like 2 years since i read/watched it so my memory is incredibly hazy and honestly speaking the entire plot sucks so bad i dont think i could choose just one. but maybe ill choose the first three episodes/chapters for being so weirdly horny
22. Popular character you hate?
honestly for all three of these i cannot think of anybody popular who i hate because theyve all got incredibly solid characters who are very fun and generally if theyre popular they're popular for a reason
23. Unpopular character you love?
for one piece: the MARINES the marines. yes ok everybody's favorite token marines are fujitora and cora and bellmere and smoker and tashigi and maybe if we're forgetting about how much garp sucks as a person we can throw him in there too but i love akainu i love aokiji i love kizaru i love ryokugyu i love sengoku i love tsuru i love all of them so much. also fandom opinion on pudding mostly depends on where youre looking but if she counts as unpopular or at least controversial im throwing her in here too i love pudding so much she deserves the world
for fma: mr ho it really depends on who you talk to so idk if he counts as unpopular but like. controversial, definitely. the dwarf in the flask specifically as in the flask is also really funny i wish we couldve seen his & hohenheim's stupid adventures together. like a dumb miniseries or something thats my dream
for soul eater frankly i have NO idea what popular opinion is but im kind of under the impression that everybody generally likes the whole cast? i mean i do

Yeah, it's been a while, but today felt like the right day to write again. I missed it.
So let's get all the updates out of the way since my last post(Dec 2023). Oh man…it's a lot.
I spent New Years with my boyfriend(yeah we're still a thing), and his best friend. Had to go home early though…cause like…im old, and we work in the mornings.
February I picked up a few extra gig jobs to pay off school. I delivered for Instacart, Spark, Shipt, and Amazon Flex. While working two other jobs. I had to pay it off and I was tired of waiting for money to just appear….cause that's totally not a thing.
March was my man's birthday! The first one I got to spend with him. Gifts that I got him don't matter…like i'm not gonna sit here and list them off…just his face was all i needed. That look of just you didn't have to do that..but he was glad I did.
I started therapy to heal from a relationship with a family member that I actually never really understood until very recently. I'm learning that , in the words of Taylor Swift, “Hi, it's me , I'm the problem”- I know that now. I know a lot now actually.
Started reading a book that has helped immensely with my healing as well. I won't mention the title in this blog as it's specific to one person in my life…but I will say this: No one is perfect, no matter the title they hold in your life. Additionally titles don't mean shit. We're all human and that's the only title I care about…unless you're an alien…then like, can we be friends.
The Medical Board of Ohio gave me my massage license, and I have signed a lease for my own business and actually have two clients ( sister and friend.) Yeah…Blissfully Bloomed is actually a real , tangible thing now.
I moved in with my boyfriend. Yup, the WHOLE sentence! It's been about 3 weeks , and let's just say we are slowly adjusting to the new. The animals are a little testy, but we love them all.Spray bottles are in every room now. LOL! He has been incredible throughout the entire process. I even know how to plug my tire now. He is patient, and kind. Even on days…i don't want to be human…he is still right there. I will tell you this- I never knew love could feel this deep…this solid…this safe. He truly is the person I was supposed to find. Someone in my life once told me a long time ago, “he has brought back what the locust stole”- When it was told to me the first time it didn't make sense, and in hindsight…I know why it didn't make sense. Now…I understand the phrase…I understand what a healthy and honest relationship looks like. I understand that MEN operate completely differently when they too feel safe and understood. I love you like crazy baby.
I started a solid vitamin regimen…and boy oh boy has it helped immensely. My anxiety only peaks during stress, and unknown areas of my life now. It's not at the forefront anymore. Vitamins, therapy, massage, counseling, coloring, legoing, and being surrounded by motivated individuals who only want to better themselves have been the key to my success. Sure I have days just like everyone else where I just don't wanna. But as my boyfriend says”it's allowed, just have to find a balance”- So i'm working on it…BUT vitamins are so good!
So I think that covers it for the updates…Lets chat about whats to come!
Moving through all of the above has required high energy and focus to obtain a goal. The focus was definitely fueled by my sister jessica. My sister was the entire inspiration to become a Massage Therapist. What's crazy…I had a client last week…she was a nurse at Nationwide in the pediatric unit….I think she would have worked with Jess at some point, and she was on MY table. Small world sometimes ya know.
Massage gave me my heart back and I've said that since school…you can't be heartless and be a massage therapist. It's impossible. We comfort through the power of touch. We calm anxiety, recirculate blood to all the necessary parts of your body, we hold space for others to relax. Coming from someone that was very very selfish in her past life…to be able to have people on my table is a gift I will always attribute to my sister Jess. Man do I miss her. What I wouldn't give to wheel her into my massage studio and give her some relaxation for a brief moment. She showed me native american flute music too. I love ya sis. We all do. You can come visit me anytime anywhere. I love you.
Okay well, on that note…I'm crying. So I think it's a good time to get ready for the day. I have three clients. One of which lost their mother last week. Like I said, massage is so powerful. It truly brings joy and I am able to give joy to others now. What an absolute gift.
Thanks for listening to my ted talk- see ya on the flippity flip!
